As the three sisters head towards home, Riley and her friends call out to them.
Riley: "Hey Ramona!"
Ramona: "Oh hi, Riley."
Riley: "Are you three going roller skating?"
Ramona: "We sure are. Are you all going too?"
Riley: "Absolutely. Say, do you want to hitch a ride with us and see if we can still make it there on time?"
Ramona: "We are in."
Riley: "Alright ladies, time to go rock and roll-on skates! Hey Evelyn, who are you texting?"
Evelyn: "Oh, I'm just texting Yahar about where to meet at the rink."
Abby: "Oooh, someone wants to have fun tonight, huh?"
Evelyn: "Stop, it's just roller skating."
Evelyn: "What about you Abby?"
Abby: "I want to have a good time dancing, obviously. I guess you three probably wanted to go because Jackson is going to be there. Am I right?"
Ramona: "What is he to you?"
Abby: "I know he is strong and clever and not only that but Riley cannot get her mind off of him."
Tawny: "He belongs to Taciana, Riley. But I bet we can find you a date."
.......Forty Minutes Later........
Riley: "Okay, here we are! The Owl Roller Rink."
Ramona: "Cool. We will be seeing you three later. Come on sisters."
Riley: "See ya then."
Evelyn: "I'll catch you girls later; my Yahar waits for me."
Yahar: "Hey there, my clawed lady. What is shaking?"
Evelyn: "Oh, nothing, you kidder, I just came here with my friends so we can go roller skating."
Yahar: "Well, it just so happens that I have my custom skates on right now."
Evelyn: "Those look cool on you, Yahar."
Yahar: "Why, thank you, milady. I could rent you out some skates if you want to join me in a dance."
Evelyn: "Yeah, I would love to dance with you."
Yahar: "I'll be right back, my rough forest rose."
Evelyn: "Okay, I'll-wow that was fast! You are back so quickly, my handsome honey badger."
Yahar: "It is all about power of persuasion, plus a rental discount."
Evelyn: "Awesome!"
Yahar: "Shall we?"
Taciana: "Jackson?"
Jackson: "Huh?"
Taciana: "I was asking if you want to take me for a spin on the skating rink."
Jackson: "Sure, Tacci."
Natasha: "I'd like to dance too."
Carina: "Actually I am dancing with him first."
Taciana: "No I am."
Natasha: "Me first!"
Jackson: "Ladies please, I will dance with all of you."
Taciana: "I am willing to share him with rest of you."
Carina: "I thought you weren't big on sharing."
Taciana: "I'm only sharing him for tonight, bestie."
Carina: "Can we just dance, please?"
Natasha: "Yeah."
Jackson: "There is a good song playing ladies. Let's party."
........An hour later........
Ramona: "No one will skate with me!"
Serena: "Me either."
Tawny: "Or me."
Serena: "Let's just go home."
........Meanwhile.........
Riley walks out on the rink and skates in Jackson's direction. One of her old friends, Tobias the Chipmunk, approaches her after seeing her alone.
Tobias: "Hey Riley."
Riley: "Oh, hi Tobias."
Tobias: "I was wondering if you would care to dance."
Riley: "Tobias, you and I are friends, right? But I have my eye on someone else."
Tobias: "Who?"
Riley: "Him. Jackson. He's skating with everyone else and is really good, so I want to skate with him too."
Tobias: "He doesn't look that special."
Abby: "I'll dance with you, Tobias."
Tobias: "Didn't expect that from you, Abby."
Abby: "Why not, Toby Reyes? I am a very saucy squirrel, baby. Let's dance."
Riley then skates onto the floor herself, only to bump into Kendall instead.
Kendall: "Watch it, Riley!"
Riley: "Sorry, Kendall."
Kendall: "How about you make it up to me, huh?"
Riley: "What? No."
Kendall: "Come on, I know we broke up, but I miss skating with you."
Riley: "Let go of me!"
Kendall: "You remember when you said I was your weasel?"
Riley: "That was five years ago and I'm over you. Bye."
Kendall starts to get angry but Jackson sees what's happening and shoves Kendall backwards against the column.
Jackson: "She said lay off, weasel."
Kendall: "This does not concern you."
Jackson: "If I see something wrong, then I make it my business. Riley, you alright?"
Riley: "Yeah. Thanks for saving me."
Jackson: "Not a problem."
Riley: "Where did your friends go?"
Jackson: "Carina got a little motion sickness and Taciana and the others left for home."
Riley: "You mean you lent them your ride?"
Jackson: "Only Taciana can drive my ride, besides me. Hey, your cheek is bleeding. Here is an antiseptic wipe to put on it."
Riley: "I don't think I can drive home while holding this on my cheek."
Jackson: "No worries Riley, I can drive you home."
Riley: "Are you always this sweet to girls you rescue?"
Jackson: "Depends on the girl, but we are good friends, so of course."
