Summary[edit | edit source]

Americana comes closer and closer to perfecting a plan to mess up with Jdg98's life, and Renaboss is filled with rage when he finds out his terminal cancer was nothing but a cruel lie. Meanwhile, Villain fan and his youngest daughter, Mary, move to the former's original template, and a frightened Lady Junky walks on the tip of her toes around her murderous fiancé.

Plot[edit | edit source]

Quote1.png
I remember the good old days when I would find myself taking a walk down Wiksteria Lane, without a single care in the world. Back then, I had no idea what fear was. I mean, of course I did, in the general sense. But I could take pride in the fact that my hard work had paid off in the sense that there was no need for an aura of fear in that community. But nowadays, as I watch over these people, and take into consideration the fear that dwells within each of them, I can say this one thing: I sure am glad I'm dead.

Jdg98 is in Rena's hospital room, as the latter packs up his personal belongings and finishes getting dressed. Jdg says, "I'm actually kinda... really scared. I mean... those sick bastards managed to get you to think you were dying. And to make me think it too. That's just... horrible." Rena is silent. His anger is glaring. Jdg goes on to say, "By the way, Lynette held a meeting today, in the chatroom, and no, Lady didn't present this time. She didn't even show." Rena asks what it was about, and Jdg says, "He announced that ImmaGleek had quit her job... and that he's looking for a new secretary. I think... I think you and I both know what that means." Rena says, stoically, "He killed her." "Yep," Jdg agrees, "He killed her." Rena says he can't wait to go back home, revive his strengths, and kick Lynette's ass. Jdg says he should cool down and figure out some way around violence. "If you beat him up, he can have you arrested." Rena says, "I... forget about it. Let's just go home. After I have a talk with Dr. Sonya." Jdg says, "Yeah. We can just go home. Everything's fine there."

Back at Rena's template, Americana gets in, through the backdoor, using a master key by Lynettefan. Inside, she immediately makes her way upstairs, to the guest navbar where Jdg is staying, and turns on his computer. She then inserts a USB pen into the side port, and opens his e-mail account. She is relieved to see that both his e-mail and password are already memorized and thus she doesn't even need to use the decoder inside her pen. "Ugh...", she says, lowly and condescendingly, "Thanks, moron. Make my job even easier, why don't you?" She starts typing some messages and sends them to her own e-mail account.

Renaboss storms into Dr. Sonya's office, and demands to be told everything that happened exactly. Sonya sighs and starts recounting the story: Americana, a renowned professional troll, came up to him a few weeks ago, and confronted him with some damning personal information on him, that could potentially ruin his life if it got out... maybe even get him killed. She blackmailed him, therefore, into making it seem as though Rena had cancer. She had nothing on the hospital's oncologists, which is why she found herself forced to come to him instead. Acting as Rena's physician following the gunshot wound, there was availability, and so Sonya delivered to him the bad news regarding the fake cancer, and acted as an intermediary of sorts, speaking for the oncologist. All the times he told Rena he could go and get the real deal, he was playing him, always hoping he'd say he'd rather hear it from Sonya himself. Sonya eventually convinced an oncologist he used to go out with to play along, instilling fear in him that Lynettefan might get vindictive otherwise. The mere mention of his name makes Renaboss' face light up with fury.

Villain fan and MaryPierceLopez enter 4349 Wiksteria Lane, Vf's old residence, and Mary's new home. Mary is relatively grumpy and quiet. Villain goes on about how great it feels to be back in his old place. Outside, the movers are unpacking the moving van. Vf notices Mary's lack of enthusiasm and asks her what's wrong, and she tells him, "Are you fucking retarded? You strangled me! That's what's wrong!" Vf pushes her to a corner, away from the movers' earshot, and tells her he is extremely sorry about that, and promises her it will never happen again. "It's just... you know what I do when I get angry. And you, sweetie, you just... you just always have to push all of my buttons." Mary says she's sorry she keeps provoking him, but her life has totally changed and she's still adjusting, and that can be overwhelming sometimes. He says he understands, and will try to lay low on her from then on. He tells her she can have that party after all if she still wants to, but Mary says it's okay, she doesn't anymore. She goes upstairs to her nearly empty room, and Vf is rather blue.

Lady Junky is having another meeting with QuinnQuinn, the wedding planner, and the latter is enthusiastic over the announcement that there is a white carriage available for the wedding. Lady says, in an extremely depressed manner, that she doesn't want any carriages. Quinn says, "But why not? Oh, my God, it is so romantic! Like, a fairytale come to life. It's every bride's fantasy, to arrive at the church in a white carriage, pulled by a white horse... oh, Lady, you mustn't let go of this, it's the deal of a lifetime." Lady says, "My life... is any fairytale." Quinn, annoyed, asks her if this is about the other guy she claims to like. Lady says it isn't. Quinn says, "Then I don't know just what the fuckity-fuck is wrong with you. You're about to marry Prince Effing Charming. That man would kill for you, so lighten up!" This last sentence makes Lady burst into tears at the table, and Quinn is confused, and unsure of how to react. She then says, "I'm not getting paid well enough..."

Americana enters Lynettefan's office and comments that she just walked past the living room to find his fiancée crying. Lynette says the wedding plans sometimes take a toll on good ole Lady Junky. He asks her why she's there, and Amy states that she understands there's an opening for secretary... and she'd like to fill it. Lynette is surprised and confused, asking her why in the world she'd want a bureaucratic job, and a submissive one, no less. Americana says she's grown quite fond of the lane and would like to, for once, set up shop, establish roots somewhere. "I spend my whole life travelling here and there, trolling people for fun... it's insane. And tiring. When I can just stay here, working for you, you being pretty much an evil mastermind... and troll people all the time from the comfort of my own neighborhood." Lynette is reluctant, and tells her he just can't see her in the role of secretary. Americana says she was actually also interested in taking over for the resigning Chat Mod, but Lynette says, "So, you want me to give Chat Mod duties to a crook?" Amy says, "Who better than me to look the other way when you do your biz?" Lynette says he doesn't see that happening, at all. She is disappointed, and asks him why. He says, "Because, to be honest... I trust your trolling abilities, yes. You're quite capable, Americana... but I don't trust you, per se. Certainly not to put you in any position of relative power." Americana doesn't answer. She just looks at him, somewhat angry, and leaves.

Renaboss comes back home. Jdg tells him he'll be going to the community store to get them some supplies and food they need, and Rena says he won't go with him because he just wants to rest. Jdg leaves, and Rena sits down on the couch. He then picks up the phone, dials a number, and after the first three beeps someone picks up and he says: "Hey... I... I'm back. Can you come over? I really need to speak with you."
A while later, he opens his backdoor for Lady Junky, who is wearing a large hat, covering all her blonde hair, a scarf and sunglasses, hoping to be made unrecognizable. He lets her in quickly, and she tells him she is risking a lot by coming over. He asks her why and she doesn't answer, instead asking why he wanted to see her. Renaboss says "I am tired of being made into a fool. I'm gonna take down your fiancé, Lady. Preferably before your wedding. And then I'm gonna...", he stops himself and kisses her on the lips. Once the kiss is broken off, he adds, "Be free to do this all the time." Lady tells him he shouldn't have done that, and he asks why. She doesn't answer again. He moves in to kiss her once more, and she backs off, telling him, "I'm scared." Rena says, "You don't have to be scared when you're with me." He kisses her again, and then starts kissing her neck. Later, the two of them are in bed, upstairs, in Rena's room, making love, him on top of her, as they both moan with pleasure.

Quote1.png
And for a moment there, Lady Junky had to let go of her fear and give into a much better emotion: happiness. And she certainly had something to be happy about. After all, she was finally making love, just like she'd always imagined it would be like.

In the template across the portal, Lynettefan is pouring himself some tea when Mary comes in, telling him she forgot to take some of her stuff to her new home. He asks her how she's liking the place, and Mary tells him it's alright. Lynette says she doesn't seem too excited, and Mary says, "Well... it's mostly because... when I got here, I... sensed, that there was something between you and me." Lynette is surprised. She goes on: "And now... that I'm living at the far end of the other side of the street, we won't be seeing each other as much, will we?" She puts her hand over his chest and slides it down, provocatively. "I guess it's all for the best," she says, "After all... you're gonna marry my big sis. I know you love her. And she loves you too." Lynette looks somewhat aggravated by this last portion she uttered.

Lady Junky comes home, via the backdoor as well, which she had left unlocked, and quickly disposes of her camouflage get-up. She heads upstairs, to her bedroom, and is horrified to find Lynettefan lying in bed, naked, with her sister Mary riding him. She lets out a yelp, and Mary gives her a provoking look, and Lynette says, "Sorry, sweetie... I just figured... since you weren't here." Lady leaves them, shocked beyond belief. They continue what they were doing. Lady leaves the house, and sits on the front porch, recuperating from the shock. She is then further shocked by what she sees next, at the end of the street: ImmaGleek... entering her template. Shocked and confused, Lady gets up and rushes down the street to intercept the young red-haired secretary and starts shouting, "Imma! Imma! Mon Dieu!! You're alive!!" The red-haired woman turns to her, confused, and says "I'm... sorry, I'm not Imma. That would be my sister." Lady is further confused. The woman says "Hi. I'm Regemma. Who might you be?". Lady is mute. "And what do you mean... 'You're alive'?"

Renaboss is sitting in Villain fan's PM room, having stopped by for a visit, filled with curiosity and a thirst for information. Vf tells him he's surprised that he's back so soon, and Rena asks if he knew that the cancer was fake. Vf says he did, and Rena asks how. Vf merely says he has his ways, and that he had guessed Rena would be out on the portals in no time. Rena asks him exactly what he wants from him. "Well... that's easy. I need help, young man. You see, the man living across the portal from you... he is a raging sociopath. With him in command, we are all doomed." Rena asks, "Then why do you let your own daughter be engaged to him?" He hears in reply: "Don't you understand? She is merely helping me. She's my inside agent, the one person I trust most in the world. She is helping me take him down from the inside." Some relief is seen on Rena's face, as he finally learns that Lady doesn't really love Lynette. Rena then says, "But why... why would you tease me? And send me here, telling me I'd be happy and safe here? I... why me?". Vf smiles, as though he's moved, and says, "Because I see so much of myself in you. And I knew... I just knew you'd be of so much help. I can tell... you have what it takes. You can take Lynette down if you want to." Rena says, "You don't even know me..." and Vf responds, "Yes. True. But I want to. To make it up for all the time I didn't spend getting to know you." Rena asks what he is talking about. Vf sits down by his side and says, "Renaboss... I am your father."
