"Remember when Harry said that he had a crush?" Simon asked as all the SideThots sat in silence at the Chipotle table. Simon felt it as his duty to break the silence.

Harry's head raised at his name and he squinted over at Simon. "No."

"I faintly recall," Anusha shrugged, "I think I was drunk that day."

"You were what?" Tobi asked.

"High?" Anusha answered in a questioning tone.

Tobi sighed, "That's not any better."

"No, I remember," Aggie said from behind the counter, obviously wiping it down. "He was standing on my fucking table."

"I never did that," Harry said quickly.

"Oh right," Dylan remembered, "When he was verbally abusing Simon about being alone."

"Excuse me," Simon said and stood up from the table, walking away a bit and then running and jumping on it.

"I give up!" Aggie said and threw her hands up in the air. If she didn't know that something dramatic was about to happen, she would've pushed Simon right off the table.

"I'm going to be calling someone out," Simon mocked Harry when he had jumped on the table, "I'm calling out this allusive bitch!" He pointed right at Harry.

"I'm telling you," Harry answered, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"We have nothing else going for us," Liz said and sipped her drink, "Just go with it."

"Well, we might have something else," Harry said, "Our main plot device hasn't shown up yet."

The group looked around, realizing that Veronica was, indeed, not at the table.

"We don't need her," Simon said.

"What?" Josh asked, "She's your sister."

"Precisely," Simon said, "You already have one member of the Minter household here."

"Technically she's not a-"

"Shut it!" Simon yelled, "Harry who do you like?"

"No one," Harry answered.

"Ew," Anusha said from across the table, "Is it Katie?"

"Ewww," Everyone said in response and looked over at Harry.

"What? No," Harry said, "It's not Katie."

"So it's-"

"It's not anyone!"

Simon was about to protest when he fell off the table. Aggie just stood there where she had grabbed Simon's ankle and pulled him off and shrugged at everyone.

"I hope you get fired," Simon muttered.

"You're going to get me fired," Aggie responded and wiped off Simon's shoe prints from the tabletop.

"Why is Simon on the ground?" Veronica asked from the doorway, returning from one of the tutoring sessions she had with Quadratic Equation. Logically, the tutoring should have been done with, but it wasn't because he didn't pay attention half the time.

"And where were you?" Liz asked condescendingly.

"What? You know where I was," Veronica replied.

"Well, you know Liz," Dylan said and patted Liz's shoulder, "She likes to live in a world where Equation doesn't exist."

"One can dream," Liz sighed, "You know he tried to give me a Team Quadeca button yesterday? Gross."

"Seriously though, why's Simon on the ground," She repeated.
