Problems TVD/TW [1] **Completed**

The Night of the Comet

Gilbert Residence:

Jenna: Do I look adult? As in respectfully parental?
Elena: Depends on where you're going.
Jenna: Jeremy's parent-teacher conference. Hair up or down?
(Puts hair up)
Dahlia: Sexy stewardess. Also, can I come?
(Jenna puts hair down)
Elena: Boozy housewife.
Jenna: Up it is. You're fiesty today. And yes, Dahlia, you can come.
Elena: I feel good, which is rare. So I've decided to go with it. Fly free, walk on the sunshine, and all that stuff. Where's Jeremy?
Jenna: He left early. Something about getting to wood shop early to finish a birdhouse. *pauses* There is no wood shop, is there?
Dahlia: No
Jenna: Yeah.

Mystic Falls High School:

Caroline: I'm confused. Are you psychic or clairvoyant?
Bonnie: Technically, Grams says I'm a witch. My ancestors were these really cool Salem Witch chicks or something. Grams tried to explain it all, but she was looped on the liquor so I kinda tuned out. Crazy family, yes. Witches? I don't think so.
Caroline: Yeah, well, feel free to conjure up the name and number of that guy from last night.
Dahlia: Ooh, what guy?
Caroline: That's what I'm saying, I don't know.
Bonnie: I didn't see him, you did. Why didn't you just talk to him?
Caroline: I don't know, I was drunk.

Parent-Teacher Conference:

Tanner: As Jeremy's teacher, I'm concerned. All right? It's the third day of school and he's skipped six of his classes.
Jenna: Mr. Tanner, are you aware that Jeremy and Elena's parents died?
Dahlia: He knows, he's just not 'willing to be lenient' anymore.
Tanner: Four months ago, a great loss. Car accident. Wickery bridge, if I remember correctly. And you're related to the family how? The, uh, mother's kid sister?
Jenna: Younger sister.
Tanner: Right.
Dahlia: Six classes? Are you sure? I mean, that's kind of hard to do. Not even I can do that, and you always kick me out of your class.
Tanner: Not when you're on drugs. It's his attempt at coping, Ms. Summers. And the signs are there. He's moody, withdrawn, argumentative, hungover. Are there any other relatives in the picture?
Jenna: I'm their sole guardian.
Tanner: Uh-huh. Could there be?
Dahlia: I'm second oldest. Other than that I can't think of anyone else.
Jenna: What are you suggesting, exactly?
Tanner: It's an impossible job, isn't it, raising three teens?
Jenna: It's been tough, but, no, it's not.
Tanner: Wrong answer. It is an extremely impossible job, and anything less and you're not doing it properly.
Dahlia: I'll have you know, Mr. Tanner, my aunt Jenna tries so hard to look after us so don't you dare try and bring her down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to meet my sister at the Grill.

Mystic Grill:

Bonnie: Well, I was talking to Grams, she said the comet is a sign of impending doom. The last time it passed over Mystic Falls, there was lots of death. So much blood and carnage, it created a bed of paranormal activity.
Caroline: Yeah, and then you poured Grams another shot and she told you about the aliens. So then what.
Elena: So then nothing.
Dahlia: You and Stefan talked all night? There was no sloppy first kiss or touchy feely of any kind?
Elena: No, Dahlia. We didn't go there.
Caroline: Not even a handshake? I mean, Elena, we are your friends. Ok? You are supposed to share the smut.
Elena: We just talked for hours.
Dahlia: Ok, what is with the blockage?
Caroline: Exactly. Just jump his bones already! Ok, it's easy. Boy likes girl, girl likes boy, sex!
Elena: Profound. *stands up*
Bonnie: Where are you going?
Elena: Caroline's right. It is easy. If I sit here long enough, I'll end up talking myself out of it instead of doing what I started the day saying what I was going to do. Come on, Dahlia.
Dahlia: Why do I have to come?
Elena: Because you're intimidating and I know you won't let me back out.
Dahlia: Good point. Let's go.
(They leave)
