With Stella...

"There is a decision needing to be made!" Stella said inside her room. "To love him and join the Ham-Hams or stay here and lay off our relationship a little. Hmmm...I like the last one the best."
She exited her room and joined Mike and the Bad Hams in the main room. "Good morning, Stella," Mike said. "We're playing cards." "What game, Number 4?" Stella questioned. "Poker," Number 4 replied.
Stella sat down in between Number 10 and Number 9. She sighed everytime she remembered she was the only girl in the Bad Hams. Even though there were 16, other than Mike and her, there was no girls. "Are we gonna start a new game?" Number 1 questioned beside Mike. "Yeah," he replied.

Back with the Ham-Hams...

Hamtaro, Boss, Caitlin, Sandy, Bijou, and Jingle entered the clubhouse. "Hey Ham Dude!" Stan said immediantly when he saw Jingle enter. "What did she say?" "Stella said," Jingle replied, "that she liked me too, but she couldn't spend too much time with me because of Mike." "Why do I bother?" Stan sighed and said. "Stan! That's rude!" Sandy scolded.
After a few long games, it was time to go back home. Jingle and Caitlin could stay longer since they didn't have owners. "Sorry, but Laura's coming home from school soon," Hamtaro said. Then the Ham-Hams left on their way home.

With Hamtaro and Oxnard...

Hamtaro and Oxnard chatted as they went down the tunnel home. "Hamtaro!" a voice yelled behind them. "Heke?" the two said in unison. It was Caitlin, and she was running toward them. "What is it?" Hamtaro asked. "I need to tell you something, if you can keep it a secret. I trust you not to tell anyone. I can't tell anyone else without them laughing," she replied. Caitlin whispered a short sentence, and he resisted without laughing. "I knew you'd understand," she said. "Don't tell anyone." Caitlin bidded farewell, turned around, and ran back to the clubhouse.
"What did she tell you?" Oxnard pleaded. Hamtaro had refused to tell him for the past five minutes. "It's about a feeling...a good one...about someone," Hamtaro mumbled. Oxnard yelled, "She has a crush!" He nodded and Oxnard said, "It's Stan! No? It can't be Howdy or Dexter...who'd want them? Anyhow, they both have a crush on Pashmina. Maxwell and Jingle are taken and so am I...not Cappy either. He's too shy. You?" Hamtaro shook his head in disagreement. Oxnard continued, "Panda would be her type." "Not him either," Hamtaro replied. He paused and started to continue, "It couldn't be Snoozer. If none of those are correct, there's only one left. She likes Boss." Hamtaro nodded and Oxnard fell to the ground laughing. "Actually, I should point out, she doesn't like him, Caitlin loves Boss," Hamtaro said.
When he got up, Oxnard said, "Don't worry, I won't tell." "Please don't," Hamtaro mumbled and he and Oxnard started back home.
