> **Penny**I'mmmzzzsorry, Butch... Might be a little late--

> **Penny**GAH!
> ACHOO![Penny gets off the bed to talk to Flo]**Flo**Mornin', Sunshine!**Penny**\*Sniff\* Is THAT...

> [Camera pans in on the cat]**Flo**IT IS... the cat of destiny... the feline of fate! Also known as...
> Blue Sweater Cat!**Penny**He needs a proper name. How about...

*Player chooses new name*

> **Penny**Blue Sweater Cat!**Flo**He truly looks like a Blue Sweater Cat!**Blue Sweater Cat**Mmrreow...**Daphne**RRIIING! RRRRING!**Penny**Must be the old servant's bell. I think Daphne is calling us on the speaking tube.

#### Go To Daphne's Room

> [Camera pans in as Penny walks to the speaking tube]**Penny**Mornin', Daphne!**Daphne**CALVIN! Will you be a darling and bring me my breakfast?**Penny**Erhm... Calvin's not here. This is Penny.**Daphne**Ah! Forgive me. Old habit.**Penny**We're ready to get started on the renovations when you are.
> ...And bring you some breakfast.**Daphne**Sounds lovely, dear. Come to my room, then we can discuss today's tasks.[Camera pans out]**Flo**So... that Calvin slip. Was that just an act, or...?**Penny**I think Daphne needs our help more than she knows.

#### Breakfast Of Champions

*A quick run to the local diner later...*

> [Camera zooms out on Daphne in bed with Penny and Flo beside the bed]**Daphne**Oh, my! I haven't been served breakfast in bed since Calvin passed away. Thank you SO much!**Flo**Daphne, you've mentioned Calvin several times. He must've been very special to you.**Daphne**Oh, he is... was... the most amazing human being I've ever known.**Penny**He was your butler, right?**Daphne**Butler, partner-in-crime, drinking buddy, soul mate... He had many titles.
> I always carry a picture of him...

> **Flo**Oh, wow. You're both so young...**Daphne**He was always there for me, picking me up when I was down, supporting me and my career anyway he could...
> ...And of course, taking care of the house. He treated me like a queen!
> Oh, how I miss my Calvin sometimes...[Penny and Flo stand beside the bed]**Flo**Well... today, WE will treat you like a queen.**Daphne**Ha ha! Sure... I'm in.**Penny**Enjoy your breakfast, Daphne. We'll go fix up the bathroom.**Daphne**I would truly appreciate that, thank you.

#### Clean Up Bathroom

> [Penny and Flo walk into the bathroom]**Daphne**Oh! The bathroom MIGHT be a little dusty...**Flo**That smell...**Penny**Yeah... let's clean this up fast and pretend it's all just cat pee.**Blue Sweater Cat**Mreeeow...

Transition Dialogue

> [Penny and Flo clean the bathroom]**Penny**\*Cough\* I think I inhaled some of that... cat pee dust.**Flo**Hey... they say a little bacteria can be good for you. Maybe that'll cure your cat allergies.**Penny**Flo, I don't think that's how it works.**Flo**Sure it is. Now, let's fix up the walls and floors!

#### New Windows

> [Flo and Penny walk to the window]**Penny**It's really nice to design a room without worrying about a lawsuit at the same time.**Flo**Yeah, it definitely relieves some of the tension.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**Swing fay all the way!**Penny**Hm... these tall windows kinda remind me of a church.
> Ugh... I'd just forgotten about the wedding.**Flo**You haven't talked to Butch yet, have you?**Penny**I wanted to... but...**Flo**Penny! You NEED to call him.**Penny**I know. I know... can we PLEASE just do some more decorating first?

#### Fix Walls

> **Penny**Let's put some... SWING FAY into these walls.**Flo**I have to correct you there... Swing Fay is not a substance.**Penny**It's not even a real word, Flo.**Flo**Sure, it is. It's German, and it's all around us... in spirit! Let me show you.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**See! There it is!
> You know, I DID actually study interior design before I started my wedding planner business.**Penny**You don't say?**Flo**Yeah. You'd be amazed how much you can learn from watching YouTube videos.

#### Fix Floors

> [In the middle of the bathroom]**Penny**Even with the squishy sensation of this rug, I'm really enjoying this.**Flo**Me, too! There are SO many possibilities.**Penny**Yeah... my feet are starting to get wet.**Flo**Mine, too. Let's pick a floor and a new rug without cat pee... and fast!**Blue Sweater Cat**MEOOW!

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

*Player chooses a third option*

> **Flo**So... how does it feel?**Penny**The rug? Oh, I like it much better without the squish.**Flo**No, silly. How does it feel to express yourself? To make your own decisions? To have creative freedom?**Penny**It feels... good. Really good.
> In fact, I can't remember the last time I've felt so fulfilled.**Flo**You and me both, sister!

#### New Toilet

> [By the toilet]**Penny**So, the toilet... How bad can it be?**Flo**EW! I think that part is moving! Remember that movie, The Blob?**Penny**GAAA! It's too disgusting to clean! Let's just replace it!**Blue Sweater Cat**MEEEOWW!

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

*Player chooses a third option*

> **Flo**It's toiletastic!
> So... did you at least text him?**Penny**Butch? ...um, no... I read all of his 52 text messages though.**Flo**So they're all now marked as "seen" but with no reply. That's even worse than not calling!**Penny**Yeah... but I DID reply to my Dad, told him we were fine, so... that means Butch knows, too.**Flo**There's an old Danish saying that goes "To walk around the hot porridge."**Penny**I don't like porridge.**Flo**No... it means you are postponing a thing that is RIGHT there in front of you, that just needs to be dealt with!**Daphne**Stop talking about porridge in there. The queen needs her throne soon!

#### New Shelves

> [By the bath]**Flo**Yeah, these shelves...**Penny**They should actually be capable of holding things, maybe.**Flo**And being visually attractive wouldn't hurt. How about this?

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

*Player chooses a third option*

> **Penny**Definitely a big improvement.**Flo**"Penny & Flo: Home Busters"**Penny**What?**Flo**That's what we should call our business.**Penny**You mean, as professional Interior Designers. That's... actually not a half-bad idea!
> "Penny & Flo: Home Busters: We put the Swing in the Fay...It's German!"**Flo**What do you think, Blue Sweater Cat? Should we start our own interior design business?**Blue Sweater Cat**MEOW!!

#### New Sink

> [Infront of the sink]**Penny**This sink, now...**Flo**In fact, everything around the sink, too! That cupboard, the mirror, the lamps...**Penny**We're on the same page here. How about this?

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

*Player chooses a third option*

*Player chooses a fourth option*

> **Flo**Huh... something fell out of the cupboard.

> **Flo**Memantine? My grandma took those for her Alzheimer's!**Penny**Dementia... that's so sad...[Flo jumps in surprise]**Daphne**Calvin! I'm ready for my bubblebath. Have you prepared the tub yet?**Flo**Um... hang on, Dementia... I mean, Daphne. We still need to fix a few things!

#### Mirror, Mirror

> **Penny**This mirror...**Flo**Yeah... THAT mirror.**Penny**And those lamps...**Flo**LET'S DO THIS!

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Penny**So, here's a thought. What if Daphne doesn't have Alzheimers?**Flo**What do you mean? We found her prescription pills, and she keeps calling for her dead butler!**Penny**I know... but she also made up this perfectly elaborate legal argument to deal with Officer Mike.
> And if anyone can play the old-senile-lady role at the drop of a hat, it's her.**Flo**But WHY would she fake having Alzheimers?**Penny**I don't know. She's just so... cunning. She's the last person I'd suspect to have--**Daphne**Calvin, darling. WHO are you talking to in there?

#### New Bathtub

> [In front of the tub]**Flo**Well, if an old lady wants to relax in a bubble bath, this tub isn't going to cut it.**Penny**What do you mean? It's prefect as it is! Wouldn't change a thing.**Flo**Hey, was that... sarcasm? This means you're either starting to relax or you are really tense.**Penny**Well... it goes back and forth. Let's replace the zombie bath tub.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

*Player chooses a third option*

> **Flo**A tub fit for a queen![Daphne walks into the bathroom]**Daphne**Well, my dears, I'm done with that LOVELY breakfast, and...
> ...look at the wonderful job you've done in here!**Penny**We're so glad you like it![Screen pans in on the vase]**Flo**OH! We missed a spot. I'm gonna fix that right away Queen Daphne.RING RIIING!!!**Daphne**The doorbell? Hm... must be Officer Mike.
> Would you care to open the door, Penny?**Penny**Butbutbutbut... what if he has more questions about the car?**Daphne**Oh, you'll be fine. Just invite him in for some tea. He loves tea. Flo and I will finish the work on the bathroom.**Penny**Um... Okay.

#### Answer The Door

> [Outside by the steps]**Penny**Dad...? What are YOU doing here?**Tom**Oh, Penny. I'm so glad I tracked you down.**Penny**Tracked me down? How'd you...**Tom**Um, I have my connections... Look, I need to talk to you.
> What in blazes is going on here? There's only a few days till your wedding.**Penny**Dad, I can't really explain right now, but...**Tom**Look, just tell me you're all right.**Penny**I'm all right.**Tom**Oh, good. Now, you NEED to call Butch. He's worried sick!**Penny**I'm really sorry about that, Dad. It's just a little roadtrip. I'll be back in time for the wedding.[Flo walks up to Tom and Penny]**Flo**Penny! Have you seen my glasses?
> Hey... you're not Mike.**Tom**YOU! You're the one putting crazy ideas into my daughter's head.**Penny**Seriously, Dad? I'm 30 years old. I make my OWN decisions.**Flo**Oh, wow, cool jacket. GOOO Lobsters!**Tom**Wha- You're a Lobsters fan?**Flo**I sure am! Hmm... must've put them in the bedroom somewhere.[Flo walk back into the mansion]**Tom**Penny, I like your new friend. But something's off here. I can tell.**Penny**I appreciate your concern, Dad and I'll see you at the wedding!**Tom**PENNY! I... GAH![Tom storms off whilst a cat walks to Penny]**Penny**...and I decide JUST how long I'm gonna be "walking around the hot porridge."**Blue Sweater Cat**Rrrrmeow...**Penny**That's right. I'm Penny. And I'm making my OWN decisions!

#### Bubble Time

> [In the bathroom, Daphne is in the bath, with Flo standing beside.]**Daphne**Ah! I can't remember the last time I've felt THIS relaxed.
> You must excuse the extra bubbles. Ha!**Flo**Only the best is good enough for a LEGEND like you, Daphne. And you just let out all the gas you need to!
> Now... I need your decision on the final piece in the bathroom.**Daphne**Let me see now...

*Player chooses an option*

> **Daphne**Oh, my goodness... now the bathroom is JUST like I remember it.
> Oh, Calvin and I used to have such deep conversations out here... \*sigh\***Flo**Daphne...
> We saw your Alzheimer's medicine. It fell out of the cupboard.**Daphne**Well ... at my age, there are going to be illnesses. But they're another reminder to live for today!
> And since you and Penny got here, I've had so much fun. I DO hope you'll stay for a little while.**Flo**Well... we still need to renovate the rest of the house, don't we?**Daphne**You're a wonderful person, Flo. You remind me of Calvin.
> WHOOPS! Here come the extra bubbles!

#### Clean Bedroom

> [As Flo walks out the bathroom, Penny walks into the bedroom]**Flo**Hey, Penny. Daphne's enjoying her bath, and I found my glasses on my face.
> Why was that old man dressed as a Lobsters fan?**Penny**It was my dad, Flo. He's been the coach for the Portland Lobsters for over two decades.**Flo**Oh... I did kinda recognize him. He sounded upset. Are you okay?**Penny**Felt good to stand up for myself, but... I don't know. I might be ALMOST okay. Maybe?**Flo**A little cleaning will get your system back in balance. Let's go!

Transition Dialogue

> [Penny and Flo clean the bedroom]**Penny**That's better! So... what's next?**Daphne**OH! I'd love a fresh pair of bloomers once I'm done with my bath, thank you!**Flo**Sure thing, Daphne!

#### New Wardrobe

> [At the wardrobe]**Flo**Why is a wooden closet a wardrobe, and also all your clothes are called that?**Penny**...**Flo**Okay, pick a style.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**A wardrobe for Daphne's wardrobe!**Penny**...and a planter![Screen pans in on Flo and Penny]**Penny**Hey... if we really went into business, we could use this as a sample of our work, right?**Daphne**Oh... to be young and full of energy again!

#### New Dressing Screen

> **Flo**Wow... I REALLY like these screens.**Penny**Yeah, they're SO romantic.**Daphne**Are you talking about that wedding again?**Penny**No... we were just admiring your dressing screens.**Daphne**Sure you were. Sure.

*Player chooses an option*

> **Flo**Oh, I'd like THAT in MY bedroom.**Daphne**It should be in EVERY bedroom!

#### New Dresser

> [In front of the dresser]**Flo**Why don't people wear hats anymore? I mean, stylish hats. Like these?**Penny**I don't know... it's a shame, actually.**Daphne**Mike wears a hat.**Penny**No, he doesn't.**Daphne**Well, he should. Are you done fixing up my dresser so I can get my bloomers?**Penny**In a minute, Daphne.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> [Daphne and Blue Sweater Cat walk out the bathroom]**Daphne**Ah! You fixed it.**Flo**All your clothes have a place now.[Daphne walks to the dresser]**Daphne**Eureka!**Penny**Congratulations on finding your bloomers, Daphne!**Daphne**If you'll excuse me, I'll step behind this screen and have a quick costume change.**Flo**Well... if you'll excuse us, we'll continue making your bedroom looking more awesome.[Daphne walks behind the screen]

#### Fix Walls

> [Penny and Flo walk to the other side of the screen Daphne is behind]**Penny**These walls could use some love.**Flo**Yes! It will change the whole feel of the room!

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**MUCH better!**Penny**Hey... we ARE good at this.**Flo**I'm telling you, Penny we need to make that Interior Design business happen.**Daphne**I'll be the investor... if you pick a clever name.**Penny**How about...**Daphne**Penny and Flo: Home Crashers!**Penny**...**Daphne**Kidding!

#### Fix Floors

> [At the bathroom entryway]**Penny**This floor...**Flo**And that rug...**Penny**Let's do this.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Penny**Perfect**Daphne**Perfect... like Penny and Flo: Floor-ists?**Penny**Yes, Daphne. Perfect like that.

#### New Dressing Table

> [Daphne comes out from behind the screen]**Daphne**Ah, much better!**Penny**But... you're wearing the exact same outfit.**Daphne**Haha! No I'm not.
> Now... I need a place to put on a new face.**Flo**You got it, Daphne.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**Hey, something fell out of the drawer. Looks like a photo...[Flo walks over to the dressing table and picks something up off the floor]

> **Flo**Is that you, Daphne?
> Baby Violet... Aw, she looks so sweet.**Daphne**...[Daphne glides away from the dressing table]**Daphne**Sweet, huh... that little hellspawn...[Daphne turns to face Penny and Flo]**Daphne**Sweet like KILLER BEES in your bloomers![Daphne glides out the room]**Penny**So... Daphne MIGHT have an issue with her daughter Violet.**Flo**I gotta find her![Flo runs after Daphne]**Flo**DAPHNEEEEEE![Flo screams as she runs][Blue Sweater Cat walks up to Penny]**Blue Sweater Cat**MEEOW!**Penny**...

#### Find Daphne

> [Penny walks down the stairs towards Mike]**Mike**Hello. I thought I'd look in on Daphne... just to make sure we're still on friendly terms.
> What's going on? Besides the car wreckage being a... planter.[Flo runs up to them whilst Blue Sweater Cat slinks towards them from the other side]**Flo**Mike! There was a wardrobe, and a wardrobe, and...**Penny**Daphne just...went out for some fresh air!**Flo**You know, Mike, we found this...[Screen glides to center Blue Sweater Cat]**Penny**MIKE! Could you see if that cat needs anything?**Mike**Well, hello. I've pulled you out of a few trees.[Mike walks toward the cat as screen pans back to Penny and Flo]**Flo**PSST! Penny! Let's find out what Mike knows about Baby Violet.**Penny**I don't know... I'm not sure he's in on this family stuff.**Flo**I suspect you're right. Still...[Mike walks back over]**Mike**Anyway, I have another slow day, if you need some help.**Flo**Oh Mike, we would LOVE some help!
> You work here with Penny, and I'll go make sure Daphne hasn't tripped over a branch or something...

#### Fix Corner

> [In Daphne's bedroom]**Penny**Daphne will, uh... really like having that couch corner redecorated.**Mike**I'm sure you're right.**Penny**What do you think of these options?

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Penny**Oh, she'll love that! Just like in her pictures!**Mike**I'll bet she has collected some great pictures over the years!**Penny**So, Mike, um... how well do you know Daphne?**Mike**I just look in on her from time to time. We usually just talk at the front door.**Penny**So you don't know anything about her... family.**Mike**No, but I'm happy to get to know her while helping out a bit...

#### Wall Decor

> **Penny**You know, when Flo and I worked on the walls in the bathroom, it made SUCH a difference.**Mike**Well, gosh, we should do the same in here!

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Penny**So Mike, I guess you've never really been inside... this part of the house?**Mike**No, but it's interesting to see more of Daphne's life.
> She seems like a really interesting woman.**Penny**Interesting. Yes! That's Daphne!
> Mike, it's just so NICE of you to help! With your big, strong...
> ...**Mike**Well, I do what I can to help members of the community.
> Erm, that's so... Oo, I see more things that need fixing!

#### New Bed

> [Penny and Mike stand at the foot of the bed]**Penny**Guess it's time to deal with... the BED.[Flo runs up to them]**Flo**Oh hi, guys! We're talking about Daphne's BED?<Let's pick a style that does her justice.

*Player chooses an option*

*Player chooses another option*

> **Flo**Perfect! This one will be very restful!**Penny**She's earned it!**Flo**This should help with the stress from her little hell-spawn, anyway!**Penny**Um, taking sides much?**Flo**Oh, right. But Daphne is our friend!**Mike**Yes, but I know family dynamics can be complicated.**Penny**You are wise, Mike.**Flo**Yeah, Mike! That is good to consider.**Penny**OKAY, I'd say a new bed needs new bedside furniture!

#### New Bedside Furniture

> [Beside the bed]**Flo**Bedside manner is important...**Penny**Or at least some nice side tables...**Flo**How about these?

*Player chooses an option*
*Player chooses another option*

Thank you!**Flo**It was our pleasure! We are feeling SO accomplished! Is it nightcap time?
