It had been about two weeks since Tim Jensen disappeared on air but it felt like it happened just yesterday. Everyone was worried but no one was not worried than Sammy Stevens and Ben Arnold.
But they had a show to do and it has been a few weeks.
Sammy was having some feelings of annoyance. He knew that these feelings were directed towards his cohost, Ben Arnold. The advertisement for Ernie's Mufflers played and he could see the look on Ben's face go from hostile to completely smitten when a Miss Emily Potter entered the studio.
And then he was attempting to flirt. It was cringe worthy, as if Emily didn't hear everything he said before she entered. He even was talking up the former librarian that he was trashing minutes before. It was as if he made a complete transformation. So, of course, Sammy had to correct these things.
And then after a few horrible and creepy calls Emily left and Ben barely noticed! Sammy couldn't help but just give an annoyed look at his cohost, not just because he looked like a lovesick puppy but also because he let her refer to him as 'Benny'. He wasn't going to let Ben live that one down.
Ben knew without a shadow of a doubt that the day would be a complete disaster. Whatever librarian that took the place of the antisemite was nothing but trouble. He knew this.
And yet, when she walked through the door all those aggressive thoughts boiled away. At first he was angry at Sammy for calling her 'lovely' but now he was angry because lovely was an understatement. Surely, Emily Potter was the most stunning librarian that there could ever be.
Of course, while the interview was happening Sammy couldn't help but try to embarrass him in front of Emily but Ben tried to be subtle and he was nailing it.
Then she was gone and he barely even noticed it except for the studio becoming just a little bit darker because she was gone.
He was definitely going to the library more.
And Emily? Emily was just there to talk about the library with the host of her favorite radio show.
