Grace sashayed up to the stage, wearing a leopard-print miniskirt, a leather jacket, fishnet tights, sparkly stiletto ankle boots and a tight, bright gold tube top. "GRACE?!?!?!?!?!" Sam asked, bewildered.

P

"Did she ever have a drug problem?" Ivy asked.

P

"No, not at all," Sam answered. "Let's see what she has to say."

P

"Aight," Grace said in a ghetto accent and snatched the mike out of the host's hands. "First, girl, my name ain't Grace BENNETT. I be Grace STANDISH, aight, bitch?" Ivy tried to muffle a laugh at Grace's outrageous appearance and manner, but let it out. "Anyway, I be free up in here, aight? I ain't got no man, so if y'all wanna ride, come on by my crib after dis. Having said that, I gonna be singing "I Will Survive" cuz I be survivin' without chew, Sammykins. You and Ivy can go do dat wild thing, cuz I don't care up in here. So here I go."

font "#6633CC"iFirst I was afraid, I was petrified

brKept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side

brBut then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong

brAnd I grew strong, and I learned how to get along

P

And so you're back from outerspace

brI just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face

brI shoulda changed that stupid lock, I shoulda made you leave your key

brIf I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

P

Go on now go, walk out the door.

brJust turn around now, cause you're not welcome anymore

brWeren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?

brYou think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?

P

Oh no not I

brI will survive

brOh, as long as I know how to love

brI know I'll stay alive

brI've got all my life to live

brAnd I've got all my love to give

P

I'll survive, I will survive!

brHey hey../i/font

P

"Well, she's over me," Sam said, admitting defeat.

P

"I'm sorry," Ivy said and placed her hand on top of his.

P

"Don't be," Sam told her. "It's my fault. I hope the kids turn out okay."

P

"Maybe you should get full custody," Ivy said.

P

"I might have to," Sam replied.

P

Grace began disco and booty dancing, receiving a catcall and fish eyes from Julian and the other men in the crowd.

P

font "#6633CC"iIt took all the strength I had not to fall apart

brAnd tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart

brAnd I spent oh so many nights just feelin' sorry for myself, I used to cry

brBut now I hold my head up high

P

And you'll see me, somebody new

brI'm not that chained up little girl who's still in love with you

brSo you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free

brBut now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me

P

Go on now go, walk out the door

brJust turn around now, cause you're not welcome anymore

brWeren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?

brYou think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?

P

Oh no not I

brI will survive

brOh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive

brI've got all my life to live

brAnd I've got all my love to give

P

I'll survive, I will survive!

brOh..

P

"Maybe I should have paid more attention to her," Sam whispered.

P

"For all you know, she was like this before you met her and she lost her memory," Ivy replied. "Maybe she's getting her former self back."

P

Go on now go, walk out the door

brJust turn around now, cause you're not welcome anymore

brWeren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?

brYou think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay brdown and die?

Oh no not I

I will survive

Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive

I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give

I'll survive, I will survive

I'll survive…

Just before walking out, Grace flashed the crowd. The men cheered loudly for Grace as Sam and Ivy sat there in shock. "Did she just..." Sam asked.

"Um, yeah," Ivy answered. "Let's forget about that whole thing."

"Okay," Sam replied. "So when are you up?"

"Soon, I think," Ivy told him. "Better to get it over with, I guess."

"Next up is Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald!" the host announced.
