Bette: Well that’s a deal I can live with, thanks. Hey do you want me to drive for a bit?

Janet: So far I’m fine, but if I tire then absolutely.

Janet gets them back to the house and find the guys right where they’d left them, in front of the television watching football, now the 4pm game was on. The evidence suggests they made do with the groceries in the house, chips, cookies and sandwiches held them over. They had switched to sodas for beverages. Janet appreciated Tom’s responsible drinking habits, though he enjoyed his beer he was always careful not to put them in harm’s way by being drunk at the wheel.

Tom: Hey baby, did you girls have fun? Spend all my money?

Janet: We had a great time, got lots of goodies for Angelica and new socks for you.

Tom: Wow I rated some socks, I must be an awesome husband.

Jen: Well Brent is working up to your status, he just got some new drawls.

Brent: Thanks honey so glad everyone knows I needed some new underwear.

Bette: Hey you guys have some very thoughtful women, don’t give them any grief while I’m around.

Tom: See I told you we were out numbered.

Janet: What’s our game plan for tonight?

Tom: Well believe it or not I did take a nap for about an hour, we just tuned in for the second half here. I think we can be on the road by 8, home by 1am. Bette we’ll drop you off first.

Bette: Ok, I’m going to pack my things and take a nap, just wake me when you’re ready.

Brent: Is she OK?

Janet: Yea, just think she’s tired, she skied a lot and she kept me company the whole way back.

Jen: I took a nap in the back seat. Jan, take a nap while I clean up in here. I’m fine now.

Janet: Yea, I need a nap. Wake me when you’re ready babe.

Tom: I will baby.

The game ends just after 7pm. The guys load the car while Jen wakes Janet and Bette. After putting the house in shutdown mode they all head out and start the journey back to the city. Janet fills a travel mug of coffee for Tom and he’s fine for the drive down, making just a couple of stops on the way down. They arrive at Bette’s first and she is home at about 1:30am. She places a quick call to Tina once she is in her apartment.
