A/N-This chapter is based off of 'Stranded'. Anthony and Suzanne got stuck in a hotel room in Tennessee and at first the hotel manager wouldn't let him stay in because he and Suzanne wasn't married but she did later because it was SO COLD!
Suzanne tried to get her to forget that she signed in as Suzanne Sugarbaker and to remember the name 'Helen Van Patterson Patton', Suzanne's arch enemy in the pageant circuit. As far as I know, they never physically described Helen so her physical body will be my description but the name belongs to the producers and writers of Designing Women.
A few weeks later in that same hotel in Tennessee, a tall, red headed woman in her early 30's walks in with a black man about her same age.
The woman saunters up to the front desk and rings the bell and the hotel manager comes out and she asks,
"May I help you?"
The young woman smirks and says,
"We would like a room please"
The hotel manager asks,
"Just one?"
The woman looks at the man with her and she says in a evil smile,
"One is all we'll need, we're on our honeymoon"
The woman signs the book and the manager looks at the one piece of luggage that he holds and the female manager asks,
"You're on a honeymoon and you only have one piece of luggage?"
The woman looks down at it then says,
"Well, when you are on a honeymoon, you don't really need a lot. Toodle-oo"
The woman gives a weak little wave and her and the black man go up the stairs to the rooms and the manager turns the sign in book around and looks at the name and it says-'Helen Van Patterson Patton' and the manager thinks,
'Now, where have I heard that name before? And it was just recently…..what was it?'
She then remembers Suzanne trying to convince her to remember the name instead of hers and she says, "Ohhhh"
She closes the book and just goes on about her business.

A few hours later, the manager knocks on the door and she opens it and comes in and says,
"I'm sorry to come in like this but we have had some complaints about the noise and…."
She stops when she sees a nude Helen and a equally nude man asleep in the chair, half empty and empty bottles of champagne and whiskey around, the bed in a mess and she sees a obscene shaped vibrator laying in the middle of the bed.
She runs out and slams the door shut. She falls against the wall and closes her eyes tight then says,
"I did not see that. I did not see that. I did not see that…"
Even though she leaves and does her work the rest of the day, she just mutters,
"I did not see that" all day long.
