27 August 2019
Bailey Helium was devastated from what happened last night. He could not believe that he had lost his girlfriend to Trish and Leslie. That night he could never forget what happened to Evelyn. He could never forget the sight of blood, hair and an anthropomorphic 8-Ball in that room.

Why did Evelyn fall for that? Why did Evelyn not know that going there would've been her downfall? A series of questions kept spewing through his head, and it was very depressing. No amount of therapy will ever make him forget what he saw last night. And to make matters worse, voices inside of his head were telling him that he is next. The words that came from one of those two troublemakers' mouth was resonating inside of his mind, causing him to struggle focusing on the present moment.

The professor for his writing class and Benson, who is sitting right next to him, was telling him to forget about what he saw last night and focus on following along with the syllabus.
"Dude, are you going to pay attention to the syllabus?" Benson asked nicely. 
"Pay attention, Helium!" The professor shouted.

Those loud words coming out of the professor snapped Bailey out of the depressive spiral. Bailey then breathed in and out, pushing all those intrusive thoughts to the back of his head. (Whoa, whoa, bad idea, sonny!) He then looked at the syllabus and began reading the section that he was prompted to read by the professor.

Meanwhile with Leslie and Trish...

Trish just got out of class, and met up with Leslie, again.
"Leslie, it is working. Britney is finally obsessed with that show and cannot stop thinking about that Ice Cube character. I even heard that she broke into the Vincent residence last night as well." Trish informed Lesile, who couldn't be happier that his plans are coming along swimmingly.
"All according to plan. However, we shouldn't rush any of this. If we move too quickly, then we will end up getting snitched on." Leslie replied.
"Especially that Gabriella, she tends to nark on those who break the university's rules. When it is our time to deal with her, what should we do?"
"Slow down, my dear Trish, I will tell you when that time comes, and when it does, she'll never be able to put a stop to my, I mean our plans to make those on the list turn into BFDI characters." 
"Ugh, fine, but for now, how are we going to lure Bailey into turning into an object?" Trish asked.
"I will tell you that he sure misses his girlfriend, so we should lie to him about Evelyn still being around."
"But how are we going to do that?"
"Simple, we have taken her phone before her well-timed demise, so we should be able to text her. I know how to hack into a phone to do such things."
"Without a passcode?" Trish asked.
"This is going to be a great plan, but we ought to be careful or we could get caught. We have to take things slow, maybe Friday?" Leslie asked.
"Yes, of course, Friday. People might already be worried about Evelyn's disappearance already, two disappearances may become... suspicious?" Trish replied.
"Yeah, we got to make sure nobody notices an absurd amount of disappearances."

Meanwhile with Tamara...

Tamara was sound asleep, thinking about all the fun she had last night, albeit something was intruding her thoughts.

Why did Britney just break in? Why is she acting strange?

Tamara jolted awake upon the sound of her alarm. She realized that Belle has already left for her early morning class. This wasn't like Belle at all, Belle would usually woken her up earlier, but today, Belle couldn't be bothered to wake Tamara up. In the kitchen, Tamara noticed a note coming from her own sister.
