*The next morning, Jack was sitting on the couch, drinking coffee ☕, when his wife, Kimberly, walked in.*

Kimberly: Hey, Jack! How are you doing?!

Jack: Not too good, Kimmy..........!

Kimberly: Honey, what's wrong?!

Jack: Kim, I can't go back to work.............!

Kimberly: Why not?!

Jack: I had another nightmare...........!

Kimberly: What happened?!

Jack: It took place 10 years in the future and the three sisters' sentence was up, but I was manipulated into making them stay longer, so Luan threw a brick at me and knocked me out......... not like I didn't deserve it.......... and when I woke up, they were gone............!

Kimberly: They escaped...........?!

Jack: Yes..........!

Kimberly: Before you continue, I need you to tell me...... who manipulated you?!

Jack: It was Bobby and Clyde..........!

Kimberly: Oh my God..........!

Jack: It got worse.............!

Kimberly: How?!

Jack: When we chased the girls, they jumped into the river and went over the waterfall. None of them survived......... and it's all my fault........!

Kimberly: No, Jack! Don't say that! Look, I know the guilt is eating you alive, but if you keep blaming yourself, it can lead to terrible thoughts.......... and I don't want to think about it............!

Jack: But dear...........!

Kimberly: Jack, listen to me, I love you and I don't want to lose you! Remember how my old husband died?! I don't want to lose you too!

*Jack then remembered.*

Jack: I'm sorry, honey.........!

*They hugged.*

Jack: Okay....... I'm going back to work.

*After getting ready.......*

Jack: Bye, Kimberly! I'll be home at 9:00 P.M.!

*Meanwhile, in Jump City, Luan was with Terra and Lori, shopping for clothes, when suddenly, she saw a familiar figure standing there.*

Terra: Luan, sweetie, what's wrong?!

Luan: I don't know, Momma Terra.........! Something about that girl looks familiar...........!

*She started walking up to the girl.*

Lori: Luan, wait!

*I'm sorry to say that when Luan caught up to that girl, she turned out to be the last person she wanted to see....... Leni.......*

Luan:*angry* You............!

Leni: Luan! It's so good to see.........

Luan: SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!! DON'T YOU DARE FINISH THAT SENTENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU HERE TO BLABB YOUR MOUTH TO MY NEW MOTHER?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!

Leni: No, Luan! I've already learned my lesson..........!

Luan: Doesn't sound like it! In fact, why should you CARE ABOUT ME AT ALL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

*Then, her stone claws grew, which scared Leni.*

Leni: Whoa! How did you..........?!

Luan: I SAID SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Luan was about to attack Leni, but Lori and Terra held her back.*

Terra: Luan, sweetie, calm down!

Lori: She's not worth it! 

*Lori and Terra glared at Leni.*

Lori: What are you doing here, Leni?!

Leni: We came to earn your trust back.........!

Luan: WE?!?!?!?!?!

Leni: Oops...........!

*Suddenly, they saw Lynn Jr. chasing Lucy with a baseball bat.*

Lucy: Lynn, stop!

Lynn Jr.: STAY AWAY FROM US!!!!!!!!!!!

*Security came and stopped Lynn.*

Security: Kid, please calm down! She's not worth the effort!

*After Lucy got away, Lynn came up to them.*

Lynn Jr.: Let's get out of here! This place is infested with pests!

Luan: I'm right behind you!

*They all stormed off, leaving Leni and Lucy feeling guilty.*

Leni: What have we done.........?!

Note: Will Luan become corrupted?! Let's hope not...........
