Forty-Three

Jeremy, Cameron, Trisha, Matt, and Romeo sit in the Grassi's backyard waiting for Scott to come out of hiding so they can kick his ass.

The backdoor opens as Mitch comes outside to confront them.

"Oh, great. He sends his little boyfriend out here." Jeremy says.

"With a pair of scissors. You gonna make us some paper dolls?" Trisha says.

This is private property. I have every right to call the cops." Mitch says getting up in Trisha's face.

"Go ahead. Call them. You'll probably need them." Cameron says.

"Screw that. He deserves whatever happens to him." Jeremy says.

"Yeah. She's like those lonely fat dudes that marry women on death row. You're deeply, deeply disturbed." Trisha says.

Mitch puts the knife down and looks all of them with a fierce look in his eyes.

"You guys need to take your disgusting made-up faces and go home. Now!" Mitch says.

"Made-up? Home? Where is that? I'm an only child. After what happened, my parents split up, sold the house, moved away. No forwarding address. Sp, I don't have a home." Cameron says getting up in Mitch's face.

Mitch signs.

"Parents suck, but I can't fix it for you." Mitch says.

"Can you fix this?" Jeremy asks pointing to the bullet hole in the middle of his head.

"Can you give me back my scholarship to Georgia Tech? I'm supposed to be starting quarterback freshman year." He continues.

"He doesn't care! He's in love and he'll do anything for him including giving him his virginity. Tonight was the night wasn't it?" Cameron sasses.

"None of your business." Mitch says.

Cameron just sits there and laughs at him.

"You stupid slut. He's worse than he is. He thinks it's okay what he did to us." Jeremy says getting close to Mitch just taunting him.

What did he do to you!?" Mitch yells.

"He doesn't know."

"About what?"

Matt tries to speak, but can't since he has no bottom jaw.

He just covers his mouth and stands next to Romeo.

"How have you not heard about Westfield High?" Jeremy asks.

"We just moved here." Mitch says.

"Pick up a yearbook, Dude." Trisha says.

"Or read a newspaper!" Cameron says.

"We're kind of famous." Jeremy says.

They all circle around Mitch and try to corner him so he can't run away.

"So you're popular, and you're pissed off. I don't know who you are." Mitch says looking at the five teenagers in front of him.

"Let's put him down, out of his misery." Trisha says.

Just then, Scott comes outside to stop them.

"Leave him alone!" He yells.

"Finally. The prodigal son returns. Come on down, man. We've got some questions." Romeo says.

"Go inside. I can handle this." Scott whispers to Mitch.

"I seriously doubt that." Cameron laughs.

"Go inside!" Scott yells.

"No! They want to hurt you." Mitch says.

"Karma's a bitch, Scott!" Trisha yells.

"You want to talk to me? Let's see how fast you can run." Scott says running over the back step and down the driveway.

The group of teenagers follow close behind him as he makes his get away.

Scott runs out in the middle of the street trying to run faster than the angry teenagers following him.

Meanwhile, Mitch calls the cops in hopes that they'll save Scott from what those kids are about to do to him.

Connie sneaks up behind Mitch and hangs up the phone.

"Come with me to my house now." Connie says.

"Leave me alone you crazy bitch!"

"Nikki is dead because of you!" Connie says pulling Mitch towards her house.

Nel keeps pressing the alarm button in hopes the security company will come to the house faster.

She then hears a noise coming from her bedroom closet.

She opens it to find Hallie, her dog, unharmed and not blown up in the microwave like she thought.

"Hallie, come here!" Nel says to the dog as the dog runs out of the room.

Them she sees Isabel standing there in the doorway.

"What do you want, Isabel!?" Nel screams.

"For the truth to be known, finally, and for once." Isabel says.

"I'm not interested in anything you have to say."

"How well do you know your husband?"

"Too well. Get out."

"What do you think he's capable of? Adultery, clearly. What about murder?"

"If you're trying to shock me, or show me how enlightened you are about my perfect life, you're a little late. Leave." Nel says.

Isabel just stands there and shakes her head.

"Not until you know. Not until you understand, really understand who it is you're married to. That's all I want, Nel. For you to know the truth. That's why we have to talk about Texas, about the pregnancy, about everything." Isabel explains.

"He told you I'm pregnant?" Nel asks.

"What? You're pregnant?" Isabel asks in shock with tears filling her eyes.

Nel just stands there confused as to what Isabel thought.

"Oh, God, that's why." Isabel says.

"That's why." Isabel says to herself.

"'It's your choice,' he said. 'Yours'. Oh, but there was never any other choice." Isabel says.

Nel realizes what Isabel is talking about and tears start to fall down Nel's face filling her eyes with sadness.

Isabel takes one of the Grassi's family pictures from the night stand and smashes it causing the glass to break.

She picks up a piece of glass and holds it in her hand.

"He didn't want me to keep my baby, because he already had yours." Isabel says walking towards Nel with the sharp piece of glass in her hand.

**

Rick is in the living room pouring gasoline all over the floor and the curtains, preparing to have it go up in flames.

Just then, Shawn walks in and sees what Rick is doing.

"What do you think you're doing to my house?" Shawn asks.

Rick recognizes him and drops the can of gasoline and backs away.

Meanwhile, Mike is tied up in the basement and is finally starting to wake up after Rick hit him in the head with a shovel.

"You're a disgrace." Stephanie says.

Mike looks up at her trying to focus his eye sight.

"Is that all the fight you have left in you?" Stephanie asks.

"How can you allow that ghoul to take the only thing that gives your pathetic life any meaning at all? Hold still." Stephanie says untying Mike's hands and feet.

"I will not permit another failure in this house. Save the baby." Stephanie whispers into Mike's ear.

And just like that, she's gone.

Mike sits up and tries to regain his head and focus.

He quickly runs upstairs to his and Nel's shared bedroom and hears Isabel talking to her.

"Isabel, I don't know what he did to you or what you think-"

"That's the trouble! You don't know! I'm not some silly schoolgirl. I'm a woman. And I matter!" Isabel explains.

"You're hurt."

"Yes, I'm hurt! He hurt me. And he'll hurt you and that baby. That's why it's better for you and for it if we just end this now. I'm going to cut the baby out of you." Isabel says.

"No!" Nel screams.

Mike runs in as fast as he can to stop Isabel.

"Isabel, don't!" Mike yells.

"Ask him about Texas! Ask him!" Isabel yells.

"Tell me about Texas, Mike!"

"Tell her!"

Isabel pants as she is running out of breath from yelling at Nel and Mike.

Mike just stands there with wide eyes as he doesn't know what to do or says.

"I lied to you, Nel. I didn't go to Texas to be with a patient. I went there to be with Isabel. She needed me." Mike explains.

"She needed you because she was pregnant, Mike? But that's not true is it, Mike? Because you hadn't seen her in over a year. Isn't that right?" Nel asks in between sobs.

Mike takes a deep breath and looks Nel in the eyes.

"I went back. Months later, I went back. I lied to you about that too. There. she knows everything, Isabel. Now put it down. Please." Mike says.

Isabel drops the piece of glass from her bloody hand as tears fall down her face.

"Mrs. Grassi?" Officer Todrick calls out.

"Yes!" Nel yells

"You activated the panic button?" Todrick asks with his gun in hand pointed at Isabel.

"Yes."

"She's the intruder?"

"Yes."

Isabel let's a tear fall down her face as she looks at Mike because she's knows he's not finished telling her everything.

Mike didn't tell her about what's under the gazebo.
