Ive never been so embarrassed.

Alice cocked her head to the side before opening her desk drawer, Wanna bet? She threw the Globe tabloid on the desk, You think today was worth than that?

Alright. Alright. I exaggerated a little. Nothings as bad as that.

Im sure theres something worse.

And if there is, Im not telling you.

Hey, hey, hey! No need to get snippy with me, Dana. Im just saying I think something more embarrassing exists.

Dana rolled her eyes, Im still not telling you.

How about that time you left your own apartment after-

Dont remind me! I wonder when Tinas coming home.

I think she said 4 oclock today.

So we have the apartment to ourselves for awhile.

Dana, I know what youre thinking. No. I have to work. Alice sat down at her computer chair.

What are you writing about?

Alice spun around and shrugged her shoulders, I have no idea. Do you want to help me think of a topic?

Sure, Dana sat down across from her.

Any ideas?

Tennis or *****?

Dana!

What? Im familiar with those.

Yeah, and how about I write an article called Dana Fairbanks most embarrassing moments.

You wouldnt.

Well, then you better not piss me off.

Alice Piescecki, your idle threats will not work on me. I could kick your ***** any day and you know it.

Argh. Im never going to have this done on time.

Write something about the repercussions of Provocations.

Alice perked up, Thats good. Real good. I could call Bette and get the whole scoop. She got up and kissed Dana on the forehead,
Thanks, hon.

Who loves me now?

Babe, Ive always loved you, but perhaps today I love you this much more. Alice held up her thumb and forefinger.

Tina opened the door to find Alice and Dana doing work on the computer. Hi, guys.

Look ma, were doing our homework.

I see that, Al. Dane, howd she rope you into this?

I owed her for this morning.

Alice, thats horrible.

I didnt do anything except ask if she wanted to help, but if you want to join us, go right ahead.
