Nadia: Back again?

Me: Yes

Ducky: Angel where are you?

Angel: (in my cheerleading outfit) Wheee!

Nadia: Can she get any stupider?

Mimi: You're just mean.

Me: Okay here I go again. Oh and I mean no offense to Catholics here in this chapter. It's the first idea I had for this.

While the warfare within the Collins' and the Cohen/Davis families raged, no one knew that a new neighbor had moved in. He was an old man, who seemed to be nice and had just moved from Iowa. One day Maureen decided to go over next door and introduce herself. He invited her in for some coffee and they sat down.

"So what brings you here to the East Village?" she asked cheerfully

"Well actually I'm a priest. My parish sent me here because they needed someone to preach to this town. I've been told that this town is full of drugs, disease, and immorality. They me put in this particular building because my first assignment is to minister to this family next door.

Story pauses

Me: Remember he doesn't know she lives next door guys!

Story continues

He went on, "I hear that the people in there are ex-junkies, homosexuals, absolute disgraces in the eyes of the Lord! And to top it off they attempt to raise innocent children in the same fashion they live!"

Maureen sat there, utterly speechless. She couldn't believe this bigot.

"Well I should be going it was very nice to meet you…."

"Father O'Riley" he said.

"Yes… Father O'Riley. I'm sure we'll being seeing each other more often" she said as headed out the door.

"What the fuck have we gotten into?" She thought. When she got back to the loft the family was sitting around…or more like Ria and Ryan sitting on opposite sides of the room from their dads and Jason fuming at his father.

"Guys you won't believe what just happened today. We've got this new neighbor next door and he is such a prick! He's some old priest who got sent here to "minister" to this town. And to top it off his FIRST assignment is to preach to us. Apparently "the family next door are total disgraces who are attempting to raise innocent children in a sinful lifestyle" Can you believe him?" she told them all.

"Well what are we going to do?"

"Looks like we're starting another protest" she said with a smile.

Little did she know that her family needed her and Jo now more than ever.

Angel: Father O'Riley is a meanie butt!

Me: I know and I know a girl at my school like him too.

Ducky: Now what?

Mimi: Song?

Nadia: Angel is trying to do a cheer!

Angel: (waving pom poms) Maureen Maureen she's our girl. If she can't do it NO ONE WILL! YAYYY MAUREEN!

Me: Good work chica!

Nadia: R&R!

Mimi: Uhh I'm outta food but I have sparkles!
