"Girl, it's been a week and you've been killing it! I can't believe how good you are at this! Are you SURE that you've never done this before?" Anissa excitedly asks Ryan

"Anissa, I still don't remember my last name. For some reason it just comes natural. Sometimes I react before I have time to really process the threat. I thought I'd remember more by now especially when ole boy hit me in the head. What ever happened to chivalry?" Ryan responds

"I think that went out the door when you kicked him in the face" Anissa responds and they burst into laughter together.

Suddenly, Anissa's door opens and Jennifer bursts in "Nissa, you got any peanut butter? Oh who's this?" She blurts out as she notices Ryan's presence.

"Shonda!! Whatever happened to an alert? And alarm? Something?" Anissa asks her A.I.

"Oh hush girl" Jennifer quips "that doesn't apply to me and you haven't answered the question"

"It most definitely does and none of your business" Anissa retorts as Ryan stands to introduce herself

"Hi, I'm Ryan. Your sister found me bloody and in a ditch and has been kind enough to allow me to stay with her until I get my memory back. And you are?"

"I'm Jennifer, Anissa sister. Who she obviously likes to keep out of the loop. You know she likes girls, right?"  Jeniifer teases

"Shut up!" Anissa squeals "and I like who I like regardless of genitalia thank you."

"Oh yeah I forgot you were a half-a-sexual" Jennifer's giggles as she makes her sister visibly uncomfortable to her great enjoyment

"It's called 'Demisexual' and what is your purpose?" Anissa asks with a shrug

"That's what I said. I was just checking on you and used my peanut butter deficiency as an excuse. So, Ryan...you feeling my sister or what?" Jennifer asks

"JEN!!!"

"What? I have a right to know in case I need to invite her to the cookout or something. You don't put raisins in your potato salad, do you?" Jennifer asks gleefully; willfully ignoring her sister's pleas "Do you even like girls Ryan?"

"Um, I'm not really sure" Ryan hesitantly answers while looking at Anissa, confused, who mouthes 'I'm so sorry'

"Jen, are you pregnant or something? What do you want?" Anissa demands

"Girl, are you serious right now? Your annoying "bestie" Curt is blowing me up looking for you. He said 'it was ready'...what's 'it'?" Jennifer questions

"That's none of your business" Anissa responds as she jumps up and pushes Jen toward the door

"THIS IS CHILD ABUSE"! Jennifer yells

"You're not a child" Anissa says before slamming the door and turning to Ryan. "I'm sorry about that, I couldn't be more embarrassed"

"It's ok" Ryan says trying to reassure her. "She fun. I like her"

Anissa rolls her eyes. "I have an appointment with a friend. You mind joining me?" Anissa asks

"Sure, let me get dressed" Ryan says as she walks towards the the guest room she's been occupying"
