Frankie looks at the time, and realizes she has 30 minutes to get home. "Andrew I have to get home, before Sigourney realizes I am not with Brain Squad."
"A.L.I.B.A bring your second the second car around. And make sure the 460 watt screwdriver is delivered quickly. Rent some office space, and have the 3d printer taken there. I do not trust Eliza, not to betray us."
A blue Lamborghini pulls around, and she gets in. It take her home, and by the time she gets there it is 7:30. She goes in the house and the entire family plus, Dayton & Cole is there.
"Hello everyone."
Sigourney runs up to her. "Frankie where have you been? We have been looking for you?"
"I told you I would be at Brain Squad for three hours."
"We called Bryon and John, they said you were not with them. Know tell us where you were."
Frankie thinks quicks on her feet, and says "I was on a date with Andrew LaPierre. I thought if I told you, that you would stop me from going."
Shock runs across everyone face, especially Coles. And so does disappointment.
"Cole, Dayton you can go home. Frankie go upstairs to your room, you are grounded."
"Yes mom."
Frankie goes upstairs, and Sigourney follows her. "I think I have given you too much leeway. I think it is time I look at your data files."
This another strike against Sigourney. In her eyes, Frankie will never be a real girl. Sigourney opens the files, but what she does not know if that Frankie has recycled her old data files from the days that Sigourney did not look at them. Each month her data files delete. So Frankie, just keeps them on a separate server. And to make the clothes match she just puts them though a photoshopping program. "Ok Let's look at them from this morning." She looks at each of them. "Ok everything is normal, but you are still grounded Frankie. Now go to your station, so I can put you in sleep mode."
"Ok mom."
Sigourney picks up the tablet. "Goodnight Frankie. I love you."
"I love you too mom."
And once again Sigourney clicks the off button. Frankie's eyes close. But this time she puts Frankie in permanent shutdown.
