The entire Diffy family and Keely paced back and forth in the living room, pondering what to do. Phil frustratingly ran his fingers through his hair, letting out a loud, hopeless sigh. Keely frowned and gently rubbed his back in little circles, comforting him.
As the tension began to fill the room, Pim swiftly and silently, swayed up the stairs and quickly came running back down the stairs.
Everyone quickly looked up at Pim, with helpless expressions sitting upon their faces.
"Well?" Phil asked.
"I had to get my WZRD." Pim said with a glimmer in her eyes.
"Honey, now isn't the time to play one of your evil, take over the world games." Mrs. Diffy specified.
Pim let out a fake laugh. "You honestly think that I would be playing, take over the world, virtually, right now?" Pim asked in disbelief.
Everyone was completely silent.
"COME ON! I am not that shallow!" Pim declared. "I went up to my room to get my WZRD, to replicate your doll, so we can switch them out, before Hackett get's to listen to your recorder."
"Oh…" Everyone said in unison.
"What's the plan?" Keely scooted to the edge of her sat, eagerly.
Pim opened her mouth to explain, but was interrupted by the telephone ringing.
Phil quickly jumped up from his seat on the couch next to Keely, to get it.
Phil looked at the caller I.D. and read it aloud. "Hackett, Neil."
"What do I do?" Phil panicked.
"Answer it." Mrs. Diffy screamed.
"Don't answer!" Lloyd worried.
"Pick it up then hang up." Keely jumped.
"As always I know what to do." Pim interrupted. "Mom, get my WZRD and use the voice enhancer, pick up the phone, act like you're a company, apologize for the inconvenience, and tell him, he's reached a number that is no longer in service. I'll grab a chip bag and crinkle it up into the receiver and make it sound like there's a bad connection. That should buy us some time to work up an exact plan."
Mrs. Diffy grabbed her WZRD and pressed the voice enhancer, changing her voice to sound like an audio recording.
"We're sorry for the inconvenience, but the number you've dialed is not a working number, or it has been disconnected."
Pim ran over to the chip bag and crumbled it up into the phone, as Keely gently put her ear up to the phone to hear Hackett's reaction.
Her mistake, earring clashed into the side of the phone, making a loud clicking noise.
"Keely, your earring!" He warned, too late.
"Don't think you can fool me Diffy's and Miss. Teslow, I know you're there!" Hackett announced.
Phil shockingly through the phone to his Mom, and shouted, "That's it; I am going to get the doll."
"Phil, it's dangerous." Keely exclaimed. "Don't go."
"I have to." He frowned. "If anything happens, know I love you Keely Teslow, with all my heart." He gave her a small smile, and pressed his lips hard against hers.
"I love you Keely, always." He grabbed her hand, kissed it, and slipped out the door.
Barb panicked and tried to stall Mr. Hackett. "So what did Phil and Keely make on their grade?"
"Don't try to change the subject!" Hackett reprimanded.
"I'm not.-"
"Shhh!" Hacked ordered.
"Mrs. Diffy was quiet, and listened."
"What was that?" Hackett whispered backing up into a bag of flour, knocking it onto the floor.
Hackett looked into the living room and saw a baby doll floating in the air.
"You can't trick me Diffy!" He said grabbing a handful of flour.
Phil slowly began to back up as Hackett approached him, closer and closer. He soon backed up into the large pile of baby dolls and knocked them over.
"I got you!" He yelped throwing flour in the direction, of the invisible, Phil.
Using a fancy ball room dancing move, Hackett span around, knocked Phil off his feet, bringing him down to the ground. Hackett quickly grabbed the rug from underneath him, trapped him, and tied him up with a wire from his radio, which he broke off.
Hackett ran back to his phone, and began to torment the Diffy's.
"I know have your son." Hackett smiled.
"He has Phil." Mrs. Diffy cried.
Just for fun, Phil, I'll put it on speaker so you can hear your family's and girlfriends' cry.
"PHIL!!!" Keely screamed, running up to the phone.
"It'll be okay, Keel!" He yelled. "I love you!"
Hackett grabbed some tape and placed it over his mouth. "This should take care of you."
"It's my turn to fix this now." Pim said. "I need the giggle!"
She ran into the kitchen and grabbed the giggle. "I need to find Hackett's weak spot."
"His ex-wife." Keely shouted.
"You know Blondie, you're not so bad." Pim smiled.
Keely smiled and helped Pim look for their ammunition. They scanned the giggle for a few minutes, as Mr. and Mrs. Diffy tried to stall.
"I got it!" Pim exclaimed. She grabbed her WZRD and changed her appearance to Hackett's ex-wife. "How do I look?" Pim asked.
Keely eyed her up and down. "Definitely scary."
The tall brunette walked next door to Hackett's house and knocked vigorously on his door.
Shocked, Hackett went to see who was at the door. He slowly opened it, to find his ex-wife, or so he thought.
"Melinda?" He asked.
"It's not the Easter bunny." She said as she barged through the front door.
"What are you doing here?" He asked. "Have you come to take me back?" He asked.
"Yes I have. I need you. I want you. Oh baby, Oh baby." She said sarcastically.
"Heck no, I haven't come back for you. I came back for the lute you owe me." She smiled. 'While doing this, I might as well make some cash while I am at it.' She thought, rubbing her hands together.
"What money?" He asked.
"You know what I am talking about." She smiled. "Let's make a deal, you give me the money, I'll take you back." She lied.
"Deal!" He squealed like a girl, handing over his wallet.
"Sucker." She said under her voice.
"What was that?" He asked.
"Nothing." She smiled.
"You're not toying with my emotions again, because if you are, I want you to know that I am not that naive." Hackett proclaimed.
"I'm not."
She backed up over into the living room. "Who's this?"
"It doesn't matter, what matters is we're back together." He smiled, trying to kiss her.
"Phil, help!!!" She screamed as Hackett's lips extended towards her face.
"Phil? Wait a second, you're Pim!!! I knew the attitude was a little off." He said taken aback.
He grabbed another wire and tied her back to another chair. "I told you, I am not as naïve as you think I am." He said.
He jumped towards the phone. "Anyone else want to get tied up?" He asked.
