Part Two
(Some time passes. Sean and Bradshaw are still trying to put up the entertainment center. Prue's fallen asleep on the loveseat and the blueprint she'd been holding are on the floor. Thunder was finding it difficult to do a crossword puzzle while the chair vibrated. She gives up on the puzzle. Beth's CD is in the middle of its second run. Fyre and Rogue share a bag of double stuffed Oreo cookies while Rogue plays "Who Wants to Be A Millionaire" on her new Gameboy Color. She loses on her first try. Chibi chibi had found a marker and was scribbling all over the truck. Jackie and Nessa poke their heads into the room.)
Nessa: Eh? What's all this stuff?
Fyre: Rogue swindled Bishoff and McMahon.
Rogue: ARGH!! (throws down the game, fuming)
Fyre: Lost again?
Rogue: (nods) Hai! (grumbles) Stupid game...
Fyre: Lemme try.
(Rogue hands over the game. She finally notices Jackie and Nessa.)
Rogue: Konnichiwa, Jackie-chan and Nessa-chan! I have goodie bags for you too! (pulls two bags from underneath the coffee table) Jackie-chan, yours is the one with the Manic Panic in it.
Jackie: Really? Sweet! .... O____O Did I just say that?
Rogue: Yuh huh!
Jackie: I've been hangin' around you too much.
Rogue: Don't worry, Jackie-chan! It was bound to happen.
Nessa: (pulls a package out of her bag) Umm. I don't think this Newsies DVD is mine, is it?
Rogue: (jumps up from the couch) Hey! I was lookin' for that! (clutches it protectively to her chest) How'd it get in there?
Sean: (mumbles) Damn!
(Rogue tries to throw an Oreo at him, but it falls short and lands on Prue's lap. Sean sticks his tongue out at her again.)
(Bradshaw picks up the blueprints that lie on the floor. Holding them at arm length, he looks from them to what he is building and back again. Seeing his confusion, Thunder gets up from the recliner. She peeks at the blueprints, looks at Bradshaw. And then turns the thing right side up before returning to the chair.)
(Rogue returns to her place on the couch. Beth and Fyre take over the building process. Jackie and Nessa are sitting on the floor comparing Hardy Boyz merchandise and occasionally swapping items. Sean is drawing kitty whiskers on Prue's face with a Magic Marker. Bradshaw sits next to Rogue and starts reading one of her comic books. Chibi chibi has swiped one of the screwdrivers and is trying to take apart her truck. Taker strides into the room. Before he can ask, Thunder beats him to it.)
Thunder: Rogue took McMahon and Bishoff for all they had.
Taker: (smiles) Really? .... That's my girl!
Chibi chibi: Uncle Taker.. Auntie Beffie said you gots a third leg. Is it made of wood? Where do you keep it?
Taker: O_____O
Rogue: Umm. I think it was a figure of speech.
Chibi chibi: OH... You grown ups sure got alotta those Figura Speach thingies.
Jackie: (whispers) But I'm sure that wherever he'd keep it is very safe.
Fyre: (whispers) And it turns to wood when Thunder handles it.
Taker: Thunder? ... (notices her in the chair) Where'd you get that?
Thunder: Rogue bought it.
Taker: Oh, really?
Rogue: ^__________^ It vibrates!
Taker: I'll bet! (sees the chair shaking) Yanno... Your eyes will stay crossed like that if you don't quit it.
(Taker pulls Thunder out of the chair and sits in it himself. Smiling, Thunder sits on his lap. Taker doesn't seem to mind in the least. Sean writes his name on Prue's forehead. Rogue pulls something out of her bag and places it on her head.)
Jackie: Is that a diamond tiara?
Rogue: Yeah. We all got diamond stuff.
Beth: Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Sean: Yeah, but if she says "Moon Tiara Action!" I'm taking away her anime privileges.
Rogue: Nooooo!!! Not my Sailormoon! Not my Ryo-ohki!!
Nessa: Ryo-what?
Sean: Ryo-ohki. She's a cabbit.
Nessa: What's a cabbit?
Sean: Exactly what it sounds like.
Bradshaw: You mean.
Sean: Yuh huh.
Bradshaw: They crossed a cat with a rabbit! That doesn't sound right.
Chibi chibi: But she's sweet... and helpful... and she eats all her vegetables!
Beth: She sounds better than some kids I've met.
Rogue: And she's cute, too. Much better than that Luna P.
Bradshaw: (cringes) I've seen Luna P. A floating beach ball painted like a cat's head. And the eyes are just freaky. Like that thing took a hit of ecstasy or something.
Rogue: (perks up) Ecstasy?
Sean: Uh oh.
Rogue: Did you say "ecstasy"?
Sean: Rogue. Don't.
Rogue: (sings) "I had a friend once. He took some ecstasy. Tried to marry me and everyone in the room."
(Sean runs over to Chibi chibi and covers her ears.)
Rogue: "He was sorta loving... Kinda caring... Kinda tried to fuck my lazy boy."
Jackie: (laughs) Is she making this up?
Sean: No. It's a song she heard.
Rogue: "It got a bit messy... all over the curtains... armchair covers, throw pillows, and carpeting."
Sean: Thank you, Rogue. That was quite enough.
Rogue: Glad you liked it!
(Beth and Fyre finally finish the project that the guys couldn't and are trying to hook up the DVD player. Sean is now sitting on the floor next to Chibi chibi.)
Chibi chibi: We're gonna watch the Harry Potter DVD next, right, Auntie Fyre?
Rogue: Yanno... That Daniel Radcliffe is kinda hot. When he doesn't have to look like Harry Potter, that is.
Nessa: You do know he's, like, 12, don't you?
Rogue: o___O
Bradshaw: Looks like our Roguey's a cradle-robber.
Rogue: (wails) I didn't know!!! (buries her head in a pillow)
Jackie: It's okay. Remember, "Love conquers All".
Nessa: And age is just a number.
Sean: But in this case I think it's a felony.
(While Jackie and Nessa are trying to console Rogue, Prue wakes up.)
Prue: What's with all the tears?
(When everyone sees her face they crack laughing. A confused Prue reaches into her bag and pulls out a compact mirror.)
Prue: Sean!
(She takes off her shoe and throws it at Sean. It hits him right in the middle of his forehead, knocking him unconscious.)
Sean: @____@
Rogue: Way to go, Prue! You rock!
Prue: Thanks! (sees the Oreo on her lap and eats it)
Chibi chibi: (stands over Sean's prone body and yells at him) Does this mean we're not gonna watch Harry Potter?!
