“And what’s that?” Alice asks.

“That everyone is sleeping together,” Dana and Helena say simultaneously. Bette and Tina laugh.

“Well I stick with it because there’s no way I can be wrong,” Alice replies. “Just look at the chart.”

“Oh shit!” Helena says turning her back on the door. Alice looks behind her to see Tammy.

“Someone’s busted!”

“Alice!’

“Don’t worry, I’ll help you out this time,” Alice consoles her. “I’ll go talk to her, you make a dash for the washroom.” Alice gets out of her seat and walks over to Tammy. “Tammy! Hey! How are you?”

“I’m ok,” she responds. “Have you seen Helena? She left without a goodbye kiss this morning…”

“No, actually I haven’t,” she lies, carefully making sure that Tammy doesn’t turn around as Helena full on sprints through tables on her way to the shelter of the bathroom. “She actually – uhm… said something about a trip to Canada a while ago. Maybe she left? I dunno… you know Helena and her random money sprees.”

Tammy nods and rubs Alice’s shoulder. “I know.” Alice looks down at Tammy’s hand anxious and disgusted.

“Ok Tammy,” she says with a forced laugh and removes her hand, patting it a few times before stepping back. “Well, I have to get back to my friends, but it was good seeing you!”

“Yeah! And hey, if you talk to Helena – ” 

“I will be sure to tell her you are looking for her.”

“Ok, thanks.”

“Ok, buh-bye now!” Alice turns and let’s go of a frustrated breath as she walks back to the table. “I swear, Helena has her work cut out for her.”

“Not like you made it any easier,” Dana puts in.

“Hey, I just saved her ass,” Alice counters. “I think that redeems me a little for my impulsive revenge last night.”

After a few minutes, Helena sneaks back out of the washroom and up behind Alice. “Is she gone?” she whispers.

“Yepp, don’t worry about it,” Alice confirms. “Elvis has left the building.”

“Look,” Helena says holding out her cell phone. “She’s already called me twenty-seven times!”
