Warning: A few vague spoilers for the July 5th episode.
Nico and Grady approach her one night the next week as she is packing up.
"We know your secret!" they yell in unison, nearly giving Sonny a heart attack.
"Really, guys, really?" she answers before she can stop herself. "For the last time, I don't have a secret!"
"Oh, that's exactly what we thought you'd say," Grady says as they stalk towards her across the lounge.
"Yeeah, Sonny," Nico continues. "You think we're dumb? What person with a secret is going to admit they have a secret just because someone says they know their secret?"
"Wait, what?"
The two boys come up to her from both sides, blocking her escape.
Grady brandishes something from behind his back. "We found this in your dressing room," he announces, throwing a brown jacket down on the couch.
"And this on your dresser!" Nico yells, waving a script that was certainly not for the next episode of 'So Random' in Sonny's face.
"What-what were you guys doing in my dressing room," Sonny stutters. "Were you trying to steal Tawni's makeup again, because if you were—"
"Well, actually, some of our customers were wondering if we'd sell them some of your old stuff, so we—Ow!" Grady stopped short as Nico elbowed him.
"That's not important, Sonny! We know. We know all."
Sonny took a deep breath. "Alright, well, I guess it was only a matter of time, before I needed to tell you…"
"How could you, Sonny? How could you pick him over us?"
"I don't think of it that way! Honest, I don't. There's no reason this has to come between us!"
"Of course it'll come between us, Sonny! You saw what happened last time! It even came between me and Nico!"
"Wait, last time?"
"Yes, Sonny! Last time we started pranking each other! And now, you're conspiring with him to prank us! Why'd you do it, Sonny? Why?"
"Wait, you think he's planning to prank you?"
"Well, duh, Sonny. He's got to get revenge for his car!"
"That beautiful, beautiful car…" Grady sighed.
"Yeah, we've been expecting it! But not from you, you-you-cavorter!"
"Cavorting traitor!"
It was at this point that Sonny started laughing hysterically.
"It ain't funny, Sonny!"
If anything, the laughter got louder. Sonny bent over, wheezing, "Funny…Sonny…"
Finally, she composed herself and pulled the two confused boys into a huddle.
"Listen, guys. The only thing funny here is how little faith you two have in me! You're right, he is plotting something."
"I knew it!"
"And, he did ask me to help…"
"We knew it!"
"And, I did agree."
"I kn-"
Sonny slapped Grady upside the head and continued. "But what he doesn't know," she whispered, pulling them in closer, "is that I'm…a double agent!" The boys gasped. I only agreed to help him so that I could gather all the information I needed to foil his plans!"
Nico and Grady cackled.
"That's more like it!" Nico said, rubbing his hands together.
"So I'm going to be spending a lot of time with him…"
"Sure, Sonny, we understand," Grady said, "Take as much time as you need!"
"Yeah, Sonny, why don't you go find him right now?"
"Right now?"
"Yeah, see if he can give you a ride home! Perfect opportunity to spy."
"Well, if you guys are sure…"
"Oh, we're sure! This is a brilliant plan, Sonny! We're just sorry you have to hang out with that jerk all the time.
Sonny grinned, slipped on her purse, and reapplied a coat of lip gloss.
"Hey, anything for my cast!"
