Anyway, if you don't feel like it, here's a quick recap.

• First major confrontation three months ago
• Alejandro flirts with Jennifer
• Scott fights with Alejandro
• All three get fired
• Scott plans to leave Jennifer with Helena planning to help him
• But Jennifer bribes Duncan into helping her stop them
• Alejandro's flirting part of Helena's plan (Jen's not too happy about it)
• Jennifer tells Helena's boyfriend, Mario and he's devastated.

And now for part 2!

That afternoon...

Three and a half hours after warning Mario about Helena's intentions, Jennifer decided that the best way to stop her husband from leaving town was to do the old trick Helena pulled back in Bad Idea #1, except this time with Duncan on the roof.

Perhaps this plan may be foolproof if she asks his girlfriend and their chauffeur to accompany them for results!

 As the group in the pink SUV goes up the hill, Helena has a weird feeling that someone may be on the car. Upon hearing an "oh" somewhere, she knew something was up.

Duncan Oh!
Helena (thinking) What the...who said that?!
Daniel Not me.

Everyone stares at Scott.

Scott What? Don't look at me! I didn't say that!

 Poor Duncan! Even though he bundled up to prevent freezing to death, he still can't get over those chilly winds blowing past him!

Duncan (to himself) The things I do for others. In the end, I always get the short end of the stick. But this is ridiculous! Why can't I be in a nice warm car with the girls and let Jen be the one freezing up here! She is so going to owe me for this. Other than that, at least I can get even with Helena after her little stunt a while back! Yesh!

Emily (to herself) I wonder how Duncan's doing up there. I hope he doesn't freeze to death up there. But since I'm needed for moral support and this is Jennifer's idea, I'll just go along with it, but I also hope that it doesn't get too carried away.

The thumping and "oh-ing" kept going for a half-mile more when Helena finally spoke up.

Helena (angrily) There is someone on top of the car! And when I find out who it is, that person better hop off the car before I throw them off! Now stop the stupid car! NOW!!
Scott Okay, princess. I'll stop the car.
Clarette But just calm down. Okay, hon?

 After the car stops, Helena immediately get out of the car to find out who was riding on their roof. And to her surprise, it was the last guy she has expected.

Helena(infuriated) DUNCAN?!!
Duncan(to himself) Uh oh. Busted
Helena What the h** do you think you're doing up there?! Get off or I'll throw you off!!
Duncan What? I just wanted to get even with you. Besides...you were the one who-
Helena Stop lying! I know someone's paying you to do something as stupid as this!
Duncan Chill out, Ice Queen. I'll get off soon.

Emily Oh no! Duncan's in trouble! We have to do something!
Sapphiria And someone's not letting me do my job!
Jennifer Okay, you two! Calm down. Let me handle this! Then you can go on driving the skaters to the train station while you can spend time with your boy toy!

Jennifer gets out of the car to confront Helena. Jennifer grins as Helena blows up at her instead!

Helena So, it was you!
Jennifer (smiling) Just being a good little girl and messing up whatever it is you're planning!

Everyone laughs.

Helena Oh really? But you know what? You weren't a good little girl to begin with! You're still a naughty little demon to me!
Duncan Really? Because I'm seeing two!
Helena and Jennifer Shut up, Duncan!

Helena Anyway, you're still the type of person who might as well be a tool!
Jennifer So what? You're one, too!
Helena At least I don't use my husband for lame stuff!
Jennifer At least I don't steal stuff from businesses for stupid stuff!
Helena Oh yeah?
Jennifer Yeah!

Helena You wanna make something of it?
Jennifer Sure do! Bring it, b****!

They begin to fight. Scott, impatient over the whole thing, exits the car to stop the catfight going on between the two women as Duncan, still freezing to death, looks on.

Scott What's up with you two? Let's go! Who cares about Duncan if he's on the car?
Helena and Jennifer Stay out of this!
Scott Make me!

They continue to argue as Duncan thinks to himself
Wow. If this doesn't end soon, I might as well be a life-sized ice statue by Christmas.

After ten minutes of hearing three arguments, Sapphiria finally exits the car.

Sapphiria Excuse me. Excuse me! HEY!!

Everyone all of the sudden stops arguing.

Duncan I hate to interrupt, too, but I'm getting a little frosty up here. Can I come down?

The three begin the argument again.

Duncan Awww....COME ON!

Sapphiria HEY!

Helena, Jennifer, and Scott stop arguing again. This time they had to listen.

Sapphiria Sorry to ruin your little moment there, but I've got some errands to run and you need to let me do my job. Okay? And Duncan?
Duncan Yeah?
Sapphiria Feel free to come down.

 Duncan gets off the car.

Duncan Listen, y'all, I'd like to stay and chat, but I'm freakin' freezing to death out here and I gotta go to someplace warm! See ya!

Sapphiria Since only four people fit into the SUV the skaters are in and Helena and Jen will don't get along unless they want to involve a car accident on their conscience, I suggest Helena ride with me and Scott can take the rest of you home.
Scott But...
Sapphiria Let's go, people! Move it! No time to argue!

Duncan (nervously and shivering) Well, you heard the lady! Let's go!
Scott (muttering) Yeah, yeah.
Jennifer (cheerfully) Yes, Duncan and Scott. Let's go home and make hubby learn his lesson about messing with his wife!
Daniel (nervously) Ooookay then.

 And so, Sapphiria took Helena and the skaters to the train station as the rest of the group looks on. Sapphiria would be back with Helena, of course, much to Jennifer's chargin.

As for Scott, he missed his ride to the train station.

Scott Yeesh.

Duncan Don't worry, Scott. Maybe opportunity will come back soon. You'll see.
Jennifer Maybe it will. Or maybe better yet...it won't.

 Scott turns to Jennifer after her words.

Duncan You're not mad at me, are you, Scott?
Scott Nope! But you know what, Jen?
Jennifer (sighs) No, what?
Scott I'm still leaving you! One way or another!
Jennifer We'll see about that!

Duncan Okay then! Let's go! I'm cold, wanna go home, and I wanna hang out with my girlfriend and our friends! So let's be off! Okay! Because I'm still freezing out here! Please!
Scott (glaring at Jennifer) Sounds good to me.
Jennifer (glares back) Me, too.
Emily Oh, boy!

To be continued....

If opportunity comes by, will Scott finally leave town?  And if he does, will Jennifer ever be the same?  Stay tuned and find out!
