Amber Needs A Favor

Halle has just gotten off the phone, ordering new inventory, when Amber walks into her office.

 

Amber- "Hey Halle, I'm sorry for showing up like this."

Halle- "That's okay.  Are you feeling better?"

Amber- "No, I was hoping you could do me a favor."

Halle- "What's that?"

Amber- "Give me a job?"

Halle- "Oh, I'm-"

Amber- *starts to cry* "This is so humiliating.  Why would he ruin everything?!"

Halle- "Amber, please don't cry, everything will be fine."

 

Amber- "I won't sign!...or maybe I should."

Halle- "Have you gone over the prenup with your lawyer?"

 

Amber- "No..."

Halle- "Maybe you should do that before making a final decision."

 

Amber- "I can do that."

Halle- "Good."

Halle- "Now, do you have any experience as an assistant?"

Amber- "I'm a fast learner."

Halle- "Well, things have gotten a bit busy around here and I could really use one."

 

Amber- "I'm your girl."

Halle- "Welcome to the team."

Dinner with Jessie and Amber

Halle- "That was really uncomfortable."

Dean- "Yeah, that was pretty tense."

 

 

A Few Hours Earlier

In the middle of dinner...

Amber- *near tears* "Jessie has asked me to sign a prenuptial."

 

Jessie- "Amber-"

Amber- "Isn't that horrible?"

Halle- "I-"

Jessie- "Amber, please.  That's a private matter."

Amber- *cries* "You don't believe in us."

Halle- "Here you are sweetie", handing her a napkin.

Amber- *sniff* "Thank you."

Jessie- "I believe in us."

Amber- "You're a liar!"

Jessie- "Honey, what do you want me to do?"

 

Amber- "Take it off the table."

Jessie- "I'm sorry, but that's not gonna happen."

 

Amber begins to cry again.

 

Needless to say, dinner was cut short.

 

 

Back to the Present

Halle- "Do you think they're gonna be okay?"

Dean- "Yeah, I think they'll work it out."

The Waverlys Go Four Wheeling

Halle and Dean have been out for hours.

 

Dean- "Babe, I think it's about that time."

Halle- "Already!  Where did the time go?"

Dean- "I see you're liking the wheels."

Halle- "This is so much fun, I should've done this years ago."

Dean- "We can come anytime you want."

Halle- "Sounds good", then she revs up her engine and takes off, "I'll race you back!"

 

Not too far along, she runs into a problem.

Halle- "Oh no", while getting off her bike to investigate.

Halle- *sigh* "Mud."

 

Dean pulls up a few moments later.

Dean- "Well, what do we have here?  Looks like I'm gonna win after all."

Halle- *pout* "I'm stuck."

 

He jumps off his bike to lend her a hand.

 

Halle- "In mud."

Dean- "That's not so bad..."

Dean- "We can get you out of that."

Halle- "What can I do?"

Dean- "Hop on and hold onto the breaks, I'll give you a nudge."

Dean- "Ready?"

Halle- "Yep."

 

And a few nudges later...

Halle- "There it goes!"

Halle- "Thanks babe."

Dean- "No problem", then takes off.
