Ash: Geez, how many messages could one person leave? I love you, Trace, but you’re a pain in the butt. No. No. No. No. Oh. I’ve got to find Tucker and scare him off. It’s the only way to protect Ashley before she takes back control and does something stupid. Hi, hi. Uh, can I please get a ginger ale? Wait, um… I’m gonna have a martini.

***************************

Ashley: So gross! Why would anybody drink that?

Audra: Oh, just what I need.

Ash: Hey! Hi.

Audra: Excuse me?

Ash: I need to talk to Tucker. It’s really important.

Audra: Are you for real?

Ash: Yeah.

Audra: You know, you are unbelievable.

Ash: I just need to talk to Tucker, okay? I just– that’s all.

Audra: “That’s all?” Yeah, what’s it gonna take for you to finally get the message that Tucker is done with you? Utter and complete public humiliation? Because that can be easily arranged.

You’re the one that I want

Ash: No, I don’t want anybody to be humiliated.

Audra: Too bad you’re doing that all by yourself.

Ash: I’m not who you think I am.
