Beth made her way through the newly refurbished food hall in Chicago's Macy's, her store! She smiled as she watched people sit and eat her newly planned out menus.

VOICE: Mrs Severide!

She loved it when she heard people shouting out her married name, even after all the years they were married.  She turned around and saw the manager of the store Hugh Waterstone.

BETH: Hugh! What can I do for you ? Hey that rhymes! (laughing)

He didn't look impressed

HUGH: There's a problem in one of the women's wear departments!

BETH: Which one?

HUGH: Think Pink!

BETH: What can possibly be wrong with the best department in this whole store?

She laughed to herself as she though of the pink idea. Everything in the department was pink.

HUGH: There's a gentleman down there complaining he needs sunglasses!

BETH: Who is this prick? (annoyed)

Hugh looked shocked

BETH: Hugh, lighten up! (laughing)

HUGH: I'll try!

BETH: Are you sure this guy isn't my husband?

Beth made her way to Think Pink. 

Jamie was stood there waiting

BETH: Well it's a sure hit! Look how busy it is!

Beth turned to see a little girl by the sales counter looking happy
