you need to stay on top of things.

Yes, I agree.

But you didn't.

- I didn't?

- Call.

You didn't call.

Are you all right?

Yes! Yes, I'm fine.

I had to wait outside for a cab.

- I know that's really not an excuse...

- Don't you have a cell?

- A cell phone?

- Yes, of course.

If you have a cell phone,

why didn't you use it?

Um...

My God, I left it in my car.

- Gloria, have you seen Tanya?

- Tanya?

- Yeah, I need to see her.

- Yeah, I just saw her.

I think she's with Mrs. Pashkowitz.

- Mrs. Pashkowitz?

- Yeah.

Where?

- Are you okay?

- Of course, yes.

- You don't look good.

- No. It, um...

Mrs. Petersen wanted me

to tell Tanya something

and I forgot and it's important.

Well, like I said,

I think she's with Mrs. Pashkowitz.

- In her room?

- Yeah.

- Where is that again?

- Upstairs.

Thanks.

Oh, God.

Now this should stop

that sock ripping incident

shouldn't it, Mrs. Pashkowitz? Huh?

Tanya!

Oh, my God. Jesus Christ, Brandi!

Mrs. Pashkowitz.

- Is she okay?

- I don't know.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

You just cut me, you silly stupid girl.

I'm really, really sorry.

Oh, you're really sorry.

Sorry is not going to stop the bleeding,

is it?

I could get an infection. I could lose my toe.

People my age lose toes.

No, no, no, you're not gonna lose your toe.

It's just a little nick.

Look, missy,

whose toe are we talking about?

I'm gonna go get a band-aid

and something to clean it up.

You just stay right there.

Be sure to take your sweet time about it.

Don't worry about me

bleeding to death in here!

Where do they get these people?

Why the hell

did you sneak up on me like that?

I didn't mean to.

- I need a favor.

- A favor?

Yeah. Can you cover for me?

I gotta take care of something.

- What?

- It's at home.

- So tell Petersen.

- I can't. I'm already in hot water with her.

Yeah, and I'm not?

Come on, just cover for me, all right?

I'll be right back.

Okay, what do you mean by "cover for you"?

You know, if Petersen asks about me...

Oh, Brandi.

Okay.

- Okay, fine, on one condition.

- What?

- You lend me your car.

- My car?

Jeez, don't sh*t your pants about it.

Yeah, it's just that

my car is not running right now.

- There's something wrong with it.

- Oh.

Yeah, I have to have it looked at.

So, can you cover for me?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just hurry back

and don't leave me hanging, okay?

Cool. Thanks.
