"You did a nice job behind the wheel. I say after the party, we have a little cake, hit the DMV. Pick up your license." Daniel, Miguel, and Julia showed up at the party.

"Okay."

"Hey, honey. Sorry I'm late." Daniel kisses his wife, Amanda, and Miguel and Julia walked to Sam and Anthony.

"Interesting, uh, choice. You going for the, uh, disco ball look?" Miguel asked Sam, who was cleaning up the glitter thrown on her and chuckled. Miguel and Julia then started making out with Sam and Anthony, causing Tory to storm off. "Hey. No breaks." Mike reminded Tory. Steve and Emma were making out, but Amanda noticed Tory. "Tory, wait."

When Emma heard this, she told Steve, "Sorry, I gotta go." Emma told Steve good-bye. "Alright, I'll see you later." Steve told Emma, and the girl followed her older sister. When the Nichols sisters noticed Amanda, Tory asked, "What do you want?"

"I'm sorry about Sam." Amanda apologized for her daughter's antics.

"Yeah, tell that to her." Tory scoffed.

"I will. But you can't fault her for having issues with you after what you did. Look, I know the situation with your mom is tough..." Amanda tried to help the Nichols sisters.

"No. No, you ain't know nothing!" Emma glared at Amanda. "So why don't you just stay out of it?!" Tory scoffed.

"Okay. Okay, I will. Just... Just know that the world isn't out to get you. There's gotta be someone in your family who can help." Amanda asked.

"There ain't no one we can trust. But that don't matter, we can handle our own shit." Emma scoffed.

"Fine. No one can help you if you don't let them. If you ask, you might be surprised." Amanda reminded the Nichols sisters.
