Jackie was right.

Donna called it off and kicked Eric out.

Eric with no where else to go, showed up at Hyde's.

Hyde "There's no way you're living here."

Eric "Hyde, man I hate to bring this up, but you lived in my parent's basement for years.

Hyde "That's true, but I want to be able to do what ever I want with Jackie without a running commentary."

Eric "I told Donna you two were together."

Hyde "We weren't together when you thought we were. And Donna found out a few days after we hooked up."

Shocked, Eric gives a Kelso inspired "Auh. How could you do this to me, Scarecrow?"

Hyde "I'm ashamed to be your friend. Look at you, you're just standing there. You just burned yourself and you don't even know it. If I'm Scarecrow, that makes you Mrs. King."

Eric "Crap. Let me in man."

Hyde sighs and holds the door open for his friend. "We're going to get you your own place soon even if I have to kick out the tenant downstairs."

Eric "I'm sure Donna will take me back in a few days, after all I didn't really do anything."

Hyde "I don't know man, she seems to have changed her determination for marrying you into determination not to marry you."

Eric "It's temporary, I'll be here a week at most, then she'll realize just because we weren't meant to get married that day, doesn't mean we shouldn't be married."

Three weeks later.

Jackie "Ok Eric I'm getting sick of you moping around here, go mop on the roof."

Eric "How's that leg of yours Jackie?"

Jackie "Watch it, or I'll shave that creature on your face you seem to have grown an attachment to in the middle of the night."

Eric "Your hair was flat in the back this morning."

Jackie's mouth formed an 'O'.

Eric smiles at his victory, then frowns again.

Jackie rolls her eyes and sits next to him "Alright tell me again what she said."

Eric "She wants time for herself, she needs to think."

Jackie "Ok, well there's little you can do, you can try a few things but you'll just screw it up. You're going to have to return to being the guy for some reason she feel in love with, cause she's not going to want a guy who just goes to work and sits on the couch. Or you can take the same time she is, and see if you are ready to take her back."

Eric "I'm ready."

Jackie "Are you? Get over yourself, concentrate on other aspects of life, like your students, or you know finding an apartment. Here. The obituaries maybe you can find something with rent control."

Eric "Takes so much Sally, this is depressing, maybe I should go back to Point Place."

Jackie "You could."

Eric sighs. "But then I'd be giving up on her, I'm going to my room to sulk. Maybe I'll try to make up a new lesson plan."

Jackie stays in the living room. Hyde walks up behind her.

Hyde "So, did he go for it?"

Jackie "He fell for the decoy."

Hyde "What did you use?"

Jackie "Relying teenagers."

Hyde shakes his head.

Doctor's office.

Jackie's drumming her fingers.

Dr. Carp enters.

Jackie "The blisters are gone, but I can tell its trying to change colors."

Dr. Carp pats the examining table. Jackie jumps up.

Dr. Carp "This is fine."

Jackie "It's not perfect."

Dr. Carp "No."

Jackie "You're not supposed to say no."

Dr. Carp "Then it's perfect." He starts to walk towards the door.

Jackie "Dr. Carp."

Dr. Carp stops at the door. "Come back in a couple of weeks, I'll take another look."

Jackie "Thank you."

Dr. Carp from the other room. "Next time bring a date."

After class Donna went into the faculty eatery, seeing another English professor, she waved and sat beside her.

Donna "I asked them today what the last book was they liked, 'something in high school' was the best answer."

Professor "You're setting the bar too high."

Donna "What's the bar I should set, the last book they read outside of a classroom 'Green Eggs and Ham'?"

Professor "Listen, I'm going to conference on Tuesday, it's directed more towards high schools, however they are supposed to have some new ideas."

Donna "I have four classes on Tuesday."

Professor "Are you telling me you never ditched a class?"

Donna "Huh, alright sure why not? But can I get in?"

Professor "Well I doubt they'll be scalpers by the door, but I'm sure they have some cancellations, and well worst case you can always crash with me."

Donna "You're going to crash?"

Professor "We teach at a community college, and they aren't going to pick up the bill like those private school hacks. So yeah."

Donna "You're a bad influence."

Professor "Eh."

A table has name tags for around 20 people or so on it.

Professor "Ok, I'm going to go for one, you follow my lead, but we should separate for a while in case one of us gets caught, that way chances are we both don't get kicked out."

The Professor walks up to the table looks down a bit and gives her "name".

Donna to herself "Well that seems fairly easy." She approaches the table looks down a bit, and sees the name Ashley Allspice, she almost laughs a bit and notices the woman behind the desk is looking at her, Donna doesn't have enough time to look down again and find another name.

Donna "Allspice" she says simultaneously with the man standing next to her. The woman behind the desk looks suspicious.

Allspice "Honey, I didn't think you could make it." He says while looking at Donna.

Donna "Last minute cancellation."

Allspice "We're newlyweds," he explains to the woman behind the desk, "Honey don't you remember you registered under you're maiden name, (looking down at the cards) here you are Pendleton."

Lady "Isn't that Pendolton."

Allspice smiles, "Its misspelled. Has been since her family arrived on Ellis Island."

The lady stares.

Allspice "Do you have a problem with a mixed race couple?"

Lady "Oh no, no. Go right in Mr. and Mrs. Allspice."

Donna "You are life savior."

Allspice "Hey I was pretty late."

Donna "Is your name really Ashley Allspice?"

Allspice "My grandfather raised me and he had a horrible sense of humor, he told my mother that since she didn't bother to find a father for me, he was going to have to give me a name different than theirs, and she dared him to. He took it personally and named me after a porn star."

Donna "Yeah I was going to point out that it did sound a little. You know?"

Allspice "I just wish he had used a male star to base it on."

Donna laughs. "I'm sorry, I can't help it."

Allspice "That's alright, but you have the advantage. You know my name, but I don't know yours or how you acquired it."

Donna using a low voice "Donna. Pinciotti. I acquired it through the normal channels."

Allspice smiled. "Ah, well Ms. Pendleton wont you take a seat?" While pulling out a seat.

She sits, in front of her there's a woman with very large hair.

Allspice "We switch on 3. 1, 2, 3."

They switch seats and the hair blocks Allspices view. "Huh."

Donna "Don't worry about it, I know a little trick." Donna approaches the woman with the large hair, and taps her shoulder. "Excuse me, but I couldn't help but notice that your hair is a little flat in the back."

The woman feels the back of her head and rushes out of the room.

Allspice "Nice trick."

Donna takes the woman's seat.

Allspice "I reiterate."

Allspice scribes a little note and tosses it to the guy sitting next to Donna. The guy reads the note looks around and gets up.

Donna "Nice trick."

Allspice smiles.
