Ok, so, I don't know what to say. Ack, I hate when that happens to me! Sorry about how bad this
chapter is, but I couldn't think of anything else at the moment!

Disclaimer: well, if I'm no longer going to write the me talking part, should I still write these
things? Yes, yes, I should. Never have, never will, own Hey Arnold!


"Are you SURE this is the place?" asked Josh, staring up at the old building with an eyebrow
raised. Cassidy nodded her head, and walked closer to the building, Josh following her. They
examined the wall, when suddenly Josh asked, "Hey, what does this button do?"

Cassidy walked over, and looked at the button he was looking at. "It says not to push it. We
shouldn't touch it." she said, walking away slightly.

"What could happen? Will we drop through a trap door or something?" Josh asked sarcastically.
Cassidy gave him a death glare, but Josh didn't notice it, and pushed the button.

A rope net went up, getting both of them and pulling them upwards. When the thing finally
stopped, Cassidy looked at Josh angrily. "Close, Sherlock." she said cynically, poking him. "Only,
you went down, we went up."

Josh looked over at her, and rolled his eyes. "Uh huh. Well, how was I suppose to know I was
just the opposite?" suddenly, they heard a door slide open. They looked towards it, and there
stood a woman in a blue body suit, and had short red hair and freckles.

"Ok then. Who pushed that button?" she asked, tilting her hips to the side and placing her hands
on her hips. Josh smiled while Cassidy just groaned and rolled her eyes.

"I did!" said Josh. Cassidy looked at him, seeing that he was trying to get through the net. She
groaned again, covered her face with her hand, and shook her head.

The woman pulled them in, and cut them free. "So, what are you two doing here?" she asked,
sitting down on a swivel chair. Cassidy and Josh both sat down, Cassie on a normal chair and Josh
also on a swivel chair.

"We came to ask you to help us. We need help getting our parents back together. My parents,
Arnold and Helga-"

"What!?" the woman exclaimed, spitting out the coffee she had just drank. She wiped her mouth
and stared at Cassidy, her eyes wide. "Arnold... and Helga?! Breaking up?! Oh my gosh, oh my
gosh... this is awful!" she exclaimed, standing up, and walking around the room in a circle.

Cassidy and Josh stared at her for a while, getting dizzy. "Uh, if you don't mind me asking, what
is your name, and how do you know my parents?" Cassidy asked, still staring at the woman. The
redhead stopped, and looked at Cassidy.


"Oh, of course." she said, straightening up, and walking back over to her chair. She sat down, and
cleared her throat. "My name is Leila. (A/n: hey, look at that, Leila is going to be in this one after
all. For those of you who are wondering why it's not Bridget, it's because she probably would be
too old to run that place any more. She would be about 50, I figure) And the way I know your
parents is that I helped them get Lila off their backs."

Cassidy and Josh gave her confused looks, then it registered. "Oh, you mean my second cousin
Callie or Calypso's mom Lila. Yeah, my parents told me about that." Cassidy said, smiling.

Josh cleared his throat, to get their attention. "Excuse me, but if I remember right, we are suppose
to be telling Leila our problem." he told Cassidy.

She stopped smiling, and looked down at the floor. "Well, my parents, Arnold and Helga, and his
parents, Gerald and Phoebe, are all breaking up because his mom, and my mom, are thinking that
our dads are cheating on them. And they aren't. We're trying to prove that they aren't, and we
need a listening device and other stuff, maybe." she explained, shrugging.

Leila half smiled, and stood up. "Ok then, come with me." she said, turning around and walking
away, her hips swaying back and forth mesmerizing Josh.

Cassidy looked over at him, and scowled. She elbowed him, and they followed Leila. They passed
by a bunch of women at computers, until they came to a small room with a table in the middle of
it. Leila walked back behind the table, turned around, and placed her hands on the table. "You
said you wanted a listening device and maybe more? Well, you came to the right place." she
grabbed a remote, and pushed a button making the top of the table flip over revealing a bunch of
gadgets. Cassidy and Josh's eyes almost popped out in surprise.

"Wow." said Josh, looking at all of the stuff on the table. Leila cleared her throat to get his
attention. He looked up, and smiled. "This is a lot of stuff you've got here." he said, looking back
down at the stuff.

"Uh huh. Well, here is the listening device you wanted," she handed Cassidy the listening device,
and told them what the rest of the stuff did. (a/n: do you really think that I know what all that
stuff is? I'm NO genius, trust me.) "So, you think you'll need anything else?"

"Uh, maybe one of those zoom lense things, right there." Cassidy said, pointing to the binocular
type things (a/n: told ya I'm not.) that Arnold and Gerald used when trying to save the
neighborhood. Leila picked it up, and handed it to her. "I think that's it... but I don't know. What
do you think, Josh?" she asked, looking at Josh who was looking around the room. "Josh!"

He jumped, and turned around. "Oh, you scared me!" he said, breathing heavily. Once he caught
his breath, he asked, "What did you want?"

Cassidy sighed, and slapped her hand over her face. "I asked if we needed anything else." she
stated, irritated.

"I know what I need..." he said, smiling.

"What!?" Cassidy asked, even more annoyed now.

"I need a suit." he said, turning his head to the closet. Cassidy looked at the closet, then back at
Josh with an eyebrow raised.

"You... need a... suit?" she asked, then let out a soft chuckle. Josh frowned at her, and crossed his
arms.

"As a matter of fact, we might need 'em to help us hide if they're black." he stated, matter-of-
factly. (a/n: ahh!! Pun, it was a pun! Oh no!!! lol. You know, "as a matter of fact," and "he said,
matter-of-factly,") Cassidy sighed, and held her hands up in the air.

"I give up! We can get the 'suit'. Crimany..." she grumbled, crossing her arms. Josh smiled, and
ran over to the closet. He grabbed a black suit (which happened to be the same one Gerald used,
hee, hee), black shoes, and black sunglasses. Then, he grabbed a black body suit (you know, the
one Helga wears in the episode "Married" except in a young girl size?), a black headband, and
black high heeled boots, tossing them to Cassidy. She looked at the stuff in her hands, then looked
back up at Josh. "Josh, what's all this?"

Josh turned around, and smiled. "Your suit." he stated simply, and shrugged. Cassidy scowled,
and dropped the stuff to the floor.

"I don't want to WEAR a SUIT." she stated, placing her hands on her hips. "And, you're not
going to get me IN that suit."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"I CAN'T believe you got me in this suit." Cassidy said later, after she got into the suit. She had
her hair down in the headband, and everything else on. Josh also had all his gear on, and they
were ready to go help their parents get back together.

Leila walked up, and smiled. "I hope you guys get them back together. They are both such oh so
adorable couples." she said, lowering them down out of the building. "Good luck!" she yelled
after them, waving.

They waved back, then turned around and continued walking. "I still don't get why you wanted to
wear suits." Cassidy said, turning to Josh.

He shrugged, and continued walking. "I don't know, I guess I just wanted to be cool." he smiled,
making Cassidy roll her eyes. "So, do you have everything, Cassie?" Josh asked, turning back to
her. She smiled, and nodded her head. "Where do we go first?"

Cassidy stopped in her tracks, and looked at Josh. "Uh... I don't know. How about... your dad's
work?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. Josh smiled, and nodded. "Good. Let's go." they began
running.

After a little while of running, they stopped at a large building. Cassidy looked at te building, then
back at Josh. "Josh... are you sure this is the place your dad works?" she asked, ad Josh nodded
his head.

"Yeah, this is it. But... the last time I was here it was smaller than this." he said walking over to a
tree. Cassidy followed him, and watched him climb up into the tree. 'Now what is he doing?' she
wondered, planting her hands on her hips.

"Josh... what are you doing?" she asked, an eyebrow raised and a half smile on her face. Josh
looked down at her, and smiled.

"You don't know? This is the perfect spot to spy on my dad from! I can see him through that
window!" he pointed at a window directly in front of him. Cassidy looked at it, then back up at
Josh.

"Ok, ok, I'm coming up, move over!" she yelled up as she began to climb up. Josh moved over
for her, and she sat down next to him. She grabbed the binocular type things and the listening
device. She gave the listening device to Josh, and looked through the binocular things at the
window. What she saw shocked her.
