after the explosive fallout at sheila's, fiona's been residing next door in the house steve bought while monica and roberta stayed with the kids. the next morning, addison and sydney headed over to the gallagher's place like usual. they wanted to try and keep some normalcy in their routine knowing what was going on.
"what are you doing here? you're not one of hers." roberta's sharp voice pierced the air as addison and sydney entered the house.
"we're here every morning. what are you doing here?" addison retorted, her tone firm and unyielding.
"i want the baby and i want to leave, you high school hussy." roberta spat out, her words dripping with venom.
"bob, stop it!" monica intervened, frustration evident as she leaned over the kitchen counter.
monica knew she needed to establish rapport with the jones girls if she was going to make amends with her children. she understood the importance of maintaining the bond her kids shared with them to keep them happy.
seated at the cluttered kitchen table, addison and sydney observed monica's frenzied attempts to organize the room. meanwhile, lip loitered by the counter, nonchalantly munching on cereal straight from the bag as roberta tended to liam.
"monica, carl needs something from you." lip pointed out, motioning to the boy who was trying to get his mother's attention.
"here." carl announced, shutting the fridge and handing his mother a slip of paper. "what? what's this?" monica inquired, her brow furrowing as she glanced down at the sheet.
"permission slip." sydney informed her, she's in the same class as carl and was going on the trip today as well. "you're going to the aquarium? when?" monica bent down at the counter, reading over the paper with a blue marker ready.
"today. i need $10." carl replied briskly, swiftly zipping up his bag in anticipation. lip passed the cereal bag to addison, diverting his attention momentarily.
"what for?" roberta interjected, her voice cutting through the air with a hint of irritation.
"the admission fee." addison explained, having already provided sydney with her share of the funds. if roberta refused, the brunette was prepared to step in and give carl the money regardless. she wasn't going to let him miss out on the trip because of these women's obstinance.
"the school doesn't pay for that?" roberta queried, her expression conveying annoyance. "no. and he'll need money for food." lip clarified, moving on to brew coffee.
