FQ: Ivy, don't ever leave me. I hug her I was lost but you came back.

IV: Keep your shorts on kid. I was taking a break from you really. In other words it was a joke on you. Cause I worked with Garney before and he was the most annoying thing in the world. He kept touching me and giggling.

FQ: You too girl! That is so true. He was laughing a lot. He tried to hug me and girl I told him he laid another finger on me; he was going to get a left hook.

IV: Sometimes you got to let them know.

FQ: He was also singing and stuff. And Girl…guess what he called me?

IV: What? (Her hands on her hip)

FQ: He called me…Fawny.

IV: He didn't.

FQ: Yes he did. (Jerry clears his throat. In other words he was ready to start the show.) Sorry Jerry. Old friends catching up. Let's move on.

Lana was watching Lu in her office, from her desk. Lu was making a lot of calls than usual. The phone rang, breaking Lana's concentration. "Rittenhouse."

"Lana, this is Dana."

"Dana," Lana chimed. "What houses have you been breaking in?"

"Cut the jokes Lana." Dana snapped. "I need to talk to Lu."

"You've been away too long. You must don't know me too well. Don't bite the hand that feeds ya." In other words don't smart off, when I'm the one who has to connect you. "Now there's a lot of mess going on here and if there wasn't, I would hang up on you in the blink of an eye. You got that! Now I'll connect you." Dana sighed.

"Yes, sir I have a deposit…Milo Morton. Her boyfriend." Just then Lu's intercom beeped.

"Lu, it's for you."

"Hold on sir. Lana who is it?"

"Mrs. Grouch…Dana."

"Tell her, I have to call her back."

"She said if you said that, tell her it's a must."

"Lana, please. Tell her I'm in ER right now or you can't find me. Lie you're good at that."

"I'm going to take that as a compliment. But, yeah I'm going to enjoy the lying to her. Aye, Aye captain." Lana clicked off. "Okay, I'm going to send it in fifteen minutes; on my lunch break. Is it possible to talk to her again?" There was a wait.

"She said that she's in no mood for talking to anyone."

"Darn, that Andy. Okay thanks." She hung up and walked out of her office holding Milo's checkbook in her hand. She was about to get on the elevator when Milo appeared before her eyes. He was in a wheelchair. A nurse was behind him pushing the wheel chair. "Milo, what are you doing? I was just coming to see you."

"I came to get my woman. I can't send you to get her. It's my fault that she's in this mess."

"It's my fault just as much as it is yours. Look, we'll both go down there and get her." She watched him rise from the chair. "You are going to be okay walking?"

"I'm fine. There's no pain heavier, than losing my baby. And no matter what it takes, I'm going to get my baby back."

"Milo it seems weird for you to talk like that."

"What? What you see in the hospital, is not what I am outside the hospital. I'm a real animal and Andy knows what I mean."

"Okay, enough…but for the record it's funny and sweet. I'll drive."

"Funny."

"So, do you really think that Dana was apart of this mess?" Milo asked.

"You know what, I think she is. Why else would Andy act like this?" She looked at him. "She is a very smart woman and she's not gone Looney."

"Who's to say that by misjudging someone it can make you Looney? You can be the smartest person in the Universe and can make a mistake in convicting someone."

"See, that's how you lost Andy from the get go. You can't go in there talking like that if you want her back."

"Why can't I have an opinion? Why can't I have my cake and eat it too?"

"Because this is Velvet cake, not no stinking pound cake! You want her back you're going to have to talk and see eye to eye. Listen to her. Ask questions, to why she led up to Dana in the first place. There's evidence. She was so upset that she and some crazy man hurt you, that she went to jail for assault. Now you can't tell me that she had no reason. Think about it Milo." He was about to say something. She cut him off. "Think about it." He did and when he was ready to speak.

"Lu, I see what you're saying. How could I be so stupid?"

"It's easy when you have been friends with the enemy for so long."

"I guess. Is this it?"

"Yep." They were pulling into parking lot of the jail. "Now, don't say anything that would make her upset."

"Oh, you know me." After going into the jail, there was a ten minute wait. Then when they were called, they gave information on who they were looking for and they paid the fine. Now all they had to do was wait for Andy.

Andy was sitting in her jail cell with another woman. She was in for theft.

"So you see no one believed me. They thought I was making this all up. Even my boyfriend didn't believe me. After I went to confront the woman and ended up in a fight he was mad that I did that."

"That's a shame. I would believe my girlfriend." That comment made Andy scoot away from the woman. "You must find it hard to even talk to those people, huh?"

"I miss Milo so bad. I don't want to break up with him, but it's really hard when you have someone who doesn't believe you. You know?" The lady nodded her head. "I can't say it enough. It's like losing a child, only it's a child you snuggle and kiss and do other things with." Just then the bailer came and unlocked the steel gates.

"Campbell, you're free to go." Andy looked confused.

"I'm free." She shrugged. "It was nice to meet you Sandy."

"Same here."

Milo and Lu was waiting patiently. Andy walked around to the front desk and signed out. She turned behind her and saw the two people she would expect. "So you paid my bail." Milo stood up on his crutches. "Don't worry you'll get it back."

"Andy I'm not worried about the money. If I was, I wouldn't have sent the money in the first place. I came to get you because I've missed you and love you." Andy didn't say a word. Her arms were folded and her expression read "unimpressed". "Andy I was foolish. I know that. I got out of my hospital bed, just to come see you out of this place."

"Lu," Andy looked behind him. "Could we go now? It's getting a little hot now."

"Andy, listen to what Milo is saying. He loves you and he's terribly sorry for what he's done. Gosh, why do you have to be a pain in the butt?"

"I'll catch a cab." She walked away. Milo hopped as fast as he could on his crutches to catch up with her. He throbbed with pain.

"Andy, we're sorry. Don't walk. Please." Lu was right behind him. Andy stopped and faced him and Lu.

"Milo, do you see what's going on here? Do you see at all what going on? My feelings are in jeopardy and no one seems to care. If you had spent a week in my shoes since that woman has been here, you would have been ready to split her in half. You all for some reason have taken what I'd said and let it go over your heads. I love you Milo, I really do. And all I could think of was you. But what good is it to love someone who doesn't believe you. I wouldn't want to marry a liar. Would you?"

"No, I wouldn't. I want to marry you some day."

"You would. Well, I need your hundred percent evidence of that. I have to think for a while Milo. To see where we are headed. Maybe things will change when she leaves. They'll probably get better."

"Andy, Lu explained to me what an idiot I have been. You're a smart woman and I didn't put that into consideration. I just went off about the mouth. Not thinking. So if you want to end it over that: a sad mistake, then, okay."

"Milo, like I said, I love you and I need to think first. Dana is driving me crazy and I want to take care of things with her first. Then we'll get back to us. I haven't forgotten about us. Our relationship is getting mixed up between Dana's crap of jealousy. It's affecting us and so if I want us to last we have to take care of the source of the problem. We'll keep it simple. We can still talk on the phone and talk at the hospital. Let's get rid of Dana, before we go back to our old selves." They agreed and she gave him a hug. Lu sat back and watched the romanticism come back. She didn't interfere in their conversation. Things were starting to come back to normal. Just think if one person could change things so much, just like a domino effect, then this was serious. It had to be Dana. I mean Andy wouldn't make this stuff up.

Andy, Milo, and Lu walked into Andy's house. Corrina was sitting with Jessie and Lezzy. They ran and hugged their mother. "Mom, I was so scared for you. I'm glad you're back." Jessie said.

"Jessie, why are you scared?" Lezzy said. "She just went to pick out a dog."

Andy looked at Jessie. "What dog?"

"Jessie said you went to the pet store to get me a puppy. So where is it?"

"Lezzy there is no dog."

"Cat?" Andy shook her head. "Mouse, horse, cow, pig?"

"No! That is a little extreme."

"Jessie you liar! I hate liars. I was really expecting a dog. You make me sick." She stomped up the stairs.

"Why did you do that?" Lu asked Jessie.

"I didn't want to really tell her where mom really was."

"Dog? You couldn't think of a better lie."

"Alright, guys. We have some work to do." Andy hugged Corrina. "Thanks for being here with the girls. You can go now." It was six o'clock. "Do any of you have to go to the hospital?"

"I can't heal another person when I'm hurt myself. I rather be here than, spend it in that ratty old hospital bed." Milo and Andy looked at Lu.

"Well, I do have some stuff I didn't get a chance to do today, that I really have to finish. I'll talk to you tomorrow?" Andy at Lu nodded. "Great. Tell me what you guys discuss, if you even get a chance to."

"Delgado. Go before I throw you out." They laughed.

"So, she has something against you." Milo was stroking Andy's hair as they both sat on the couch.

"Yeah, jealousy. The only thing it could be is that she's afraid I took her friends. Isn't that stupid? People are supposed to have more than one friend. She obviously has a one tract mind and no care of others feelings."

"I never really talked to her when she was here, but we conversed from time to time. It was still nice to see her."

"Well soon we won't." There were few minutes of silence.

"Hmm, that makes sense."

"What does?"

"Dana's flirting."

"She flirted with you! Oh no," She was about to get up. He pulled her down. "I'm serious." She hit the couch rest. "I'm really P.O. now. Why didn't you tell me?"

"Um, for the past days you wouldn't talk to me. And I didn't want you to think I liked it. But anyway, she sat next to me at the dinner and every time I got up to call you, she followed me." Andy just shook her head. "Don't worry baby," He kissed her forehead. "We'll solve this one way or another."

"I hope so. I can't take anymore of this." Milo yawns. "You tired?" She asks.

"Really. I think that I need to take my pain pills first. Where do I sleep?" Like she could read his mind she quickly said no.

"The kids are upstairs. I have a guest room, that's set and made. What about your change of clothes?"

"I can head back tomorrow to the hospital. I have a change of clothes there." He tried to stand up and the pain in his ribs hit and he fell back down.

"Let me help you." She helped him off the couch slowly and pulled him up. She picked up his crutches. "This has become ridiculous."
