"No, this is not The Clam Hut Restaurant," Ryan said into the phone.

"Yes that is this number, but this is not the Clam Hut," Ryan said sternly, as a giggly Marissa watched from the bar stool she was seated at in the Cohen house.

"What does it matter what my name is. This. Is. Not. The. Clam. Hut," Just then the door bell rang, Marissa motioned that she would get it. As she walked to the door she heard, Ryan say to whoever was on the phone,

"No I do not know the number to the restaurant. No, I am in California,"

Marissa smiled and opened the door. Summer was there, this time with her car behind her.

"Coop," She squealed as she hugged her.

"Hey Summer, wow you're here."

"Yeah, Is Cohen."

"Well, I don't know, probably in his room."

"Ok, I'll go check, and if not I'll hang with you and Ryan ruining your 'couple' time" The smiled at each other and walked in separate directions. Summer made her way up to Seth's room and knocked.

No answer

"Cohen, I'm coming in" She turned the door knob and slowly pushed the door open; there was Seth at his computer with his ipod attached to his ears. She went up and tapped him on the shoulder; he spun around in his swivel chair, startled. Once he realized who had interrupted him he pulled the headphones out of his ear and stood.

"Summer, you're here, does your dad know?"

"Yes."

"Which question were you answering?" Summer went and sat on his bed.

"My dad knows I'm here Cohen," Seth came and sat down beside her.

"How did that happen?"

"I guess he realized that you probably didn't do this to me, I don't really know, all of the sudden my keys were back on the hook and when I said that I was going out he told me to say hi to Sandy and Kirsten for him.,"

"Wow."

"Yep," Summer leaned up to Seth for a kiss.

"Cohen?"

"Yes Summer."

"I'm Hungry."

"What kind of hungry?" he said as he leaned in for another kiss, just to be pushed off by Summer.

"I want food, like real food, down in the kitchen." She got up and skipped down the stairs. Seth walking behind.

Seth, Summer, Ryan, and Marissa sat around the kitchen table. They had all pulled various food items out of cupboards to snack on.

"So Summer, when are you going back to school?" Ryan asked.

"Monday!" Summer replied happily.

"Do you think your going to be far behind on the work?" said Marissa

"Well, I did most of it, but the teachers better give me a break, I mean, I was in a coma."

"Wow nine days seemed like a lifetime," Seth said sounding astonished.

"Tell me about it, and I was out of it for like five of em."

Just then, Sandy came bustling into the room a serious look on his face. Kirsten entered after him.

"Good your all here, I have something really important to tell you."

"What is it dad?" Seth questioned.

Sandy took a deep breath.

"Danielle has gone missing."

"What?" Summer exclaimed.

"Her parents thought she was going on a trip with some of her friends this weekend, when they got back she wasn't with them," Kirsten explained

"They claim when they went to pick her up she told them she couldn't go," finished Sandy

"Well, what does this mean?" Marissa asked.

"I don't know, but I would watch out." Sandy directed to Summer.
