Isabella and Steven enter the Big Donut, seeing a tired Sadie greeting farewell to some customers.

"Thanks for coming." Sadie, almost unconsciously, begins to mop the floor.

"Hey, Sadie!"

"Hey, Sleeping Beauty."

"Hey, Isabella. Hey, Steven. What'll it be?" Sadie asks.

"Sorry to be a pain, but we got kind of a long order. I hope it's not too much trouble." Isabella says.

"What trouble?" Sadie chuckles, "I'm a professional donut girl." she puts the mop away and walks behind the counter.

"Okay...We'll have one glazed donut, one jelly donut with powdered sugar on the side, three chocolate frosted, one frosted chocolate, two chocolate-frosted chocolate, one dog-nut; medium well, one coffee with milk and sugar, hold the coffee. I also have several methods of payment I'd like you to split this order across evenly." Steven puts some money and credit cards down on the table.

"Uh, what's all this for?" Sadie asks in curiosity.

"Band practice!" Steven exclaims.

"You're in a band?"

"Kinda. We started jamming with Jenny, Buck, and Sour Cream!" Isabella explains.

"Whoa! That's so cool! Aww man! I bet you guys sound amazing!"

"We're still trying to figure out our sound, but it's been fun just playing music with other people." Steven explains.

"It's also nice to have an outlet that doesn't involve space and Gem stuff and everything else going on." Isabella smiles sheepishly, "Um...You doing okay?"

"Well, I worry about Lars being in space like you, and I hope he's safe and all, but...Ughh...Working all these shifts by myself has been a huge drag." Sadie starts mopping the floor, "I'm totally used to doing his work, but I'm used to at least having him here to talk to. Now, I gotta do that myself, too. "Oh, come on, Sadie, you missed a spot!" Oh, no, sorry." she continues mopping.

"Well, we'll all be practicing at Sour Cream's place tonight. Feel free to stop by if you have time." Isabella told her.

"I'll try! Hopefully, I can finish restocking napkins early. We're always running out for some reason."

Steven takes a whole stack of napkins, "Hmm, weird."

Isabella shakes her head, "Well, see ya, Sadie!" she waves as she leaves the shop, Steven following her and leaving a trail of napkins.

"Bye, Isabella, Steven." Sadie waves.

...

Sour Cream experiments with his Launchpad, Isabella, Steven, and Jenny hanging out with him outside his garage.

"What do ya call that style?" Isabella asks.

"Beachcore."

"Hey." Buck arrives with a guitar case on his back.

"What's up, Buck?" Jenny asks.
