 "Hola, Sophie. Hola, Haley" Gloria greeted them as they entered the house

"Gloria, we were driving by and saw this outside your door, so here" Sophie said handing her the paper

"Thank you"

"No problem"

"Hey, so since we're already here, our friend was gonna have a pool party tonight, but he got sick" Haley explained

"Could we, maybe, have it here?" Sophie asked with a pleading look

"Mm. Good thing that you saw this paper or if not, you would have never been able to ask" Gloria said sarcastically

"Yeah" 

"I'm sorry, but Jay and I are going to Mitch and Cam's for dinner tonight" Gloria told them

"I'm just thinking out loud here. What if we get a chaperone that our parents approve of?" Haley asked

"Would it be okay then?" Sophie asked

"Well, I guess so. You know, it would be good for Manny to have a little bit of fun. Do you mind if he stays here for the party?" Gloria asked them

Interview

"Mind?" Sophie asked rethorically looking at the camera 

"The plan depended on him" Haley said

End Interview

"I don't suppose you've thought of a chaperone?" Claire asked them when they told her about the plan

"Of course not, mom, because it's going to be a wild party and we're trying to get away with something, as usual" Haley said sarcastically

"Yes, we thought of a chaperone-- our Uncle who already said he would do it. You should trust us a little more" Sophie tried to convince her

"But if that's gonna be a problem, I think we should just call everybody--" Haley started talking

"Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. It's fine" Claire said


Interview

"And thank you, Uncle Manny" Sophie and Haley said smiling


End Interview

 "Hi, Haley. Hi, Sophie" Manny greeted


"Hi. Stef, Sam, this is Manny" Haley introduced

"What's up, dude?"

"Kitchen's over there and pool's in the back" Sophie showed them around

"So where are your parents?" Manny asked 

"They're not coming" Haley told him

"I was told there'd be a chaperone" Manny started to worry

"There is. It's you. Isn't it great?" Sophie asked not really interested

"Our parents are totally fine with it" Haley lied

"Well, exits, fire extinguisher, burn kit. Okay, let's have some fun" Manny said

"I believe I was clear the bedrooms were off-limits. Young lady, I don't think you're ready up here for what you're planning to do up there. Ugh. Not on my watch" Manny told a girl

"I did what i could, mom. It was a nightmare. I can't tell you how many times I turned off the bathroom light" Manny told Gloria

"Sophie! Haley!" Gloria yelled

"Oh, crap" They both sighed

"Listen, Gloria. Okay, pretty everything we told you technically was not--" Sophie tried to explain

"You lied to me so that you could have a party without supervision!" 

"Oh, we had plenty of supervision. He was running around all night with his coasters and vacuum and his "make good choices" speech" Haley said pointing to Manny

"Good. Somebody needed to be responsible" Gloria said

"Thank you" Manny said

"Not you. You take rules too seriously" She told him

"I'm in trouble?" Manny asked confused

"You are 13. You're not supposed to be vacuuming the party. You're supposed to be enjoying the party" Gloria explained 

"Exactly" Sophie and Haley said

"A party that you shouldn't have been having!" Gloria told them

"It seems like you're sending mixed signals here" Sophie said

"Yeah, maybe we should get our friends and just leave" Haley said

"No, you're in trouble, little young ladies. You're having this party!" Gloria told them

"What? They've been using glassware by the pool, putting feet on the furniture, and begging girls to kiss each other"Manny protested

"Yes! All the things that you should have been doing! Yeah, all those things are fine. Go. Have fun and go crazy" Gloria told him

"But he's gonna ruin our party" Haley protested while Sophie sighed and thre her head backwards

"Three birds with one bullet" Gloria told her
