Lila Flores

**Lila Flores** is Kimberly's co-worker at Sips.

## History

### Meeting Kimberly

Lila was working at Sips when the manager, Roger, introduced her and Canaan Greene to the new employee, Kimberly Finkle. Kimberly suggested they have drawings on the menu board that could be changed daily. Roger loved the idea and asked Lila to come in early to do that.

Kimberly later came to Lila because Canaan had told her she had a baby. Lila was confused and told Kimberly she didn't have any kids. Kimberly was upset that Canaan was messing with her.

### Kimberly at Nico

After watching Nico Murray tutor Kimberly, Lila commented on how hot he was and told Kimberly she should get on that.

### Catullan Banquet

Lila and Canaan were hired to work the Catullan fundraiser. When Kimberly found out they were working the party, she overtipped because she felt awkward about them serving her. When Canaan told her not to worry about it as no one else was tipping anyway, she loudly declared that he was a scholarship student, knowing it would guilt the other attendees into tipping. At the end of the night, Canaan and Lila returned Kimberly's fake tips and gave her a cut of the tips they'd made that night.

### Advising Kimberly

When Kimberly fretted over Nico leaving a comment on one of her posts and then deleting it, Lila suggested that Kimberly post a story and see if Nico checked it right away.

Kimberly started hooking up with Nico, but this led to her grades slipping, as she spent time she should have been studying having sex instead. Kimberly told Lila she barely had a C in econ and Lila suggested she ask Professor Bennett for extra credit, which Lila had done herself while taking his class.

### Kimberly's UTI

When Lila learned that Kimberly had a UTI, she brought her some cranberry juice. Kimberly then asked her opinion on what she should get Nico for his birthday. Lila suggested something sexy.

### Kimberly's Meeting and ABC Party

When Kimberly faced a meeting with the Honor Board regarding her cheating on an exam, Lila told her she needed to give them something bigger so they didn't expel her, meaning she needed to bring proof that she got the test from Theta and they were cheating on a much larger scale. Later, at the Anything But Clothes party, Lila wore a dress made of condoms and said she intended to use all of them.

### Return to School

Lila returned to school after Thanksgiving break. She attended the traditional snow run, in which students ran across campus in their underwear after the first snowfall. Then she went to Omega Pi's party. When Bela heard Lila talking about the guys' penises, she invited Lila to write for the new comedy magazine she was starting. She agreed. At the party, she got so drunk that Canaan had to escort her home.

### Hennessey's Party

When Kimberly was invited to a party by Elizabeth Hennessey that Arif would be attending, she told Kimberly they had to go because she wanted to hook up with Arif. At the party, she and Kimberly talked to Arif about his time at Essex.

### The Foxy Launch

As they prepared for the release of their first issue, The Foxy writers worried about how to reach a larger audience. Jo said that a lot of them shared the same social circles, which narrowed their reach. Evangeline said they could just start small and trust that their audience would find them, but Bela wasn't satisfied with that and they ended up going to The Catullan's printer and replacing their cover with one that had a QR code linking to The Foxy. In retaliation, Eric hacked their front page and vandalized it.

### Becoming the Manager

When Roger told Lila, Canaan, and Kimberly he was being fired because they'd realized they could pay a student a lot less to do his job, Kimberly suggested Lila apply. Lila was offended that Kimberly thought she would want the job. However, once she calmed down, Lila apologized to Kimberly and Kimberly apologized as well. Lila said she thought she could be good at the job, but the interview made her nervous. Kimberly encouraged her to try anyway and agreed to do a mock interview with Lila to get her ready. Lila struggled to come up with appropriate answers, but eventually did give a genuine answer to why she wanted the job. In exchange for Kimberly's help with the interview, Lila advised Kimberly to change the narrative between Kimberly and Jackson when Kimberly was worried Jackson only saw her as frail after helping take care of her.

### Food Workers' Strike

Lila was shocked when the food workers on campus, including Kimberly, went on strike. She told Kimberly she couldn't take part because she was management and ran the risk of being fired. Despite this, Lila showed up to the rally, though she wore a disguise.

## =Bela's Party

Lila came to the party Bela threw during pre-frosh weekend to prove to Priya, her friend from home, that she was cool. When Priya didn't show up to the party, Lila, Travis, and Kimberly all realized Bela was blowing her off. Bela went out to a party in the woods to confront her, followed by Kimberly and Lila.

### Econ Banquet and The Foxy Write Up

Lila and Canaan were talking at Sips when Kimberly came in and showed them an article in the school paper about Canaan which said he was being honored at the econ banquet. He wanted to keep quiet about it, but Kimberly encouraged him to go.

At a meeting of The Foxy, Bela told the writers they were getting a featured write-up in The Essex View and said she'd be curating the whole thing to make sure it went right. When the reporter came, Bela dominated the conversation.

### Date or Dare Party

Kimberly went to Lila and said she thought she had a crush on Canaan. Lila said she couldn't act on it, as it could blow everything up for her and it was unlikely Canaan liked her back as Kimberly wasn't his type.

At Theta's Dare or Date Party, Lila went through all the dares written on red solo cups and took two for herself. She also added one of her own daring someone to motorboat her and including her number. Lila then walked around the party looking for 50 people to kiss, as that was her dare.
