Tess

"You're gonna wear a wire." You have got to be fucking kidding me. 

"A wire!?!" 

"Yeah, Schwoz is gonna'tape a secret microphone to your chest."

"Wow!"

"Then you're gonna meet Henry at the Parkway Diner, where I'll be hiding nearby..."

"Ooo, and then what?"

"You're gonna ask Henry about this 'sickness'...and I bet you he admits that he's been faking." 

"He's not faking it. I still have the stains that didn't wash out completely when Mr. Hart washed my hoodie, shirt, and even my bra. He puked on me 7 times in the past 3 days!"

"So...I get to be, like, like a spy?!?" And I'm ignored. Not the first time, but just annoying. I'm surrounded by idiot men. 

"Schpy."

"Sure. We'll call you 'Double oh zero.'"

"Yesssssssssss. It's all happening."

"He just ripped off James Bond."

Later

Char's reading a book and I've already given trying to reason with a man-child, idiot 1, and idiot 2.

"There...Now, this is your microphone right there, by your noople."

"It's pronounced Nipple, Schwoz."

"All right. Let's go bust a faker." Why is Uncle Ray dressed like a greaser from Grease?

"Okay, so now will you let me outta here?"

"No. You could still warn Henry, so you gotta stay in there 'til we prove he's faking." Just let her out. 

"And what happens if I need a restroom?"

"I already handled that." And he gave her a jar to go to the bathroom. 

"I am not using this jar!"

"Good news for the jar. Let's go. Oh Schwoz. Uh two things..."

"Yes?"

"Do not let Charlotte out of the tube 'til we're back."

"Aye. And what's number two?"

"Don't eat any worms and don't let Tessa kill you." I don't wanna know about the worms. 

"That's three things, and Oh! But--"

"No buts, no worms!"

"Byeeeee." Uncle Ray and Jasp leave. 

"Okay, Schwoz--let me out of this tube."

"Ohhhhh no no no no no no no. You heard what Ray said about you, worms, and Teresa."

"You better listen to me, Schwoz! 'Cuz if you don't let me out of this...uh. Out of this...oh my. I think I...I-I think I...ohhhh..." What did Char just do?

"Ayeeee!!!" Schwoz overrides the controls, and runs to Char. 

"Oh! Charlotte! Are you okay?!? Please be okay! Charlotte, Charlotte-- Ohhhh!!!" Char kicks  Schwoz in the groin. 

"That's for not letting me outta the tube!" 

"Now could you please call me an ambulance?"

"No! I'm gonna go get my phone, call Henry, and tell him what Ray and Jasper are up to!" Schwoz crawls over to the cabinets while Char is looking for her phone.
