Hyde sighed heavily in annoyance, cracking his neck as he listened to Jackie's irritating song for what seemed like the tenth time. Everyone else had equally annoyed expressions on their faces, Kelso messing with a Frisbee on the couch, Fez leaning behind him, Donnie beside him. Erica was easily ignoring it, writing on her newspapers.

"Okay, I just wanna listen to the guitar solo one more time," Jackie said, walking to the radio.

"Not again," Hyde groaned, "Use the headphones."

She made a face at him, sticking out her tongue as she held up the wire, before plugging it in and listening to her music alone.

"Good, now wrap the cord around your neck..." Hyde muttered darkly when her ears were covered. Donnie snickered, Jackie remaining oblivious as she danced to the music.

"Hey, would you guys respect me if I worked at the town dump?" Erica asked suddenly.

"The town dump?" Donnie asked, "No."

"Now the state dump," Hyde added, pointing at him with raised eyebrows.

"Why're you looking for a job?" Donnie asked as she went back to writing.

"Everything cost money," She mumbled, "Gas, clothes... fun."

"Dates," Kelso added, "Dates cost money.

"No, Kelso, that is prostitution," Fez said.

"Dating is prostitution, man, only you don't always get what you pay for," Hyde said, shooting Jackie's dancing figure a look. She caught his look, lowering her headphones slightly.

"What?" She asked.

"Nothin', doll," He smiled fakely, "I didn't say anything."

She shot him a suspicious look, placing the headphones on the player.

"Well," Donnie snickered at them, "I'm goin' home for dinner."

"Oh, hey," He suddenly turned back to them, "Mom and Dad are going to the Playboy club in Lake Geneva this weekend. You guys want souvenirs?"

"Ooo." - Kelso
"Ashtrays." - Hyde
"A woman." - Fez

"Your parents are gonna be out of town," Jackie looked at Erica slyly, "Really?"

"Yup," Donnie answered, looking at Erica, but she remained oblivious, eyes on her paper, "But, I mean, I'll be babysitting my sister, Tina, all weekend. Just me. Alone. Watching TV... I might order a pizza."

"Oh!" Kelso hopped up suddenly, "I got an idea!"

Hyde shook his head, smirking as Kelso stood between Donnie and Jackie.

"We'll have a party at Donnie's," He said, wrapping an arm around her shoulders, "A toga party!"

"Kelso," Jackie interrupted, "Maybe Donnie doesn't wanna throw a party. Maybe he wants to be alone."

"Yeah," Donnie said, looking at Erica again, "Just me. Alone. If someone happens to stop by, that'd be great."

"So we're on," Kelso smiled stupidly, "I'll bring the beer."
