Charlie: Ruby, I saw you out with Jerry yesterday. I thought you liked Gilbert?
Ruby: I did
Ruby: Do*
Charlie: Well I just saw him and Anne walking down Lovers' Lane holding hands!
Ruby: What?!!! I have to do something about this!!!
Charlie: If you need my help text me.

Ruby and Gilbert
Ruby: Hey Gil!
Gilbert: Hi Rubs!
Ruby: Let's meet up tomorrow!
Gilbert: I can't... I'm meeting up with Anne! And after I have rehearsal for the concert thingy to raise money for charity!
Ruby: Oh! Well then I guess I'll see you at the concert! You're reciting poetry, right?
Gilbert: Yes! I'm reciting a poem dedicated to Anne 😉
Ruby: Hmm...
Ruby: See you then!!
Gilbert: Bye Ruby!

Ruby and Charlie
Ruby forwarded the conversation with Gilbert.
Charlie: Rubs, I have a plan.
Ruby: Why do you even care about me and Gilbert?
Charlie: Because a) I like Anne and b) Gilbert blocked me.
Ruby: Oh.
Charlie: Anyway... So the plan is that you-

Ruby and Jerry
Ruby: Hi!!!
Jerry: Hey Ruby!
Jerry: What's up?
Ruby: Oh, nothing! I was just wondering if we're going to the concert together?
Jerry: You want to go with me?!!!!
Jerry: I'm not even going to give you time to change your mind: YES!
Ruby: Oh. Great.
Ruby: I mean YAY!

Anne blocked Gilbert
Jerry blocked Gilbert

Anne and Diana (after the concert)
Anne: Gilbert likes Ruby.
Anne: Oh Diana! Gilbert likes Ruby.
Anne: I HATE HIM
Anne: HOW COULD HE LEAD ME ON?!
Anne: I bet it was all a plan to get Ruby to like him!
Anne: HOW COULD GILBERT DO THIS TO JERRY?! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN HIS FACE WHEN THE LIGHT FELL ON RUBY WHILE BLYTHE WAS RECITING!
Anne: And there I was thinking he was talking about me for a few seconds! I felt like he was looking at ME when he recited "There is another, not a sister"
Anne: But he was probably just looking at Ruby who was next to me!
Diana: Woah! Slow down Anne!
Anne: I can't slow down! I'm so angry! And so embarrassed!! I started SCREAMING at him in front of EVERYONE. AND GILBERT LIKES RUBY!
Diana: Please slow down, Anne! Just listen (or in this case read).
Anne: Okay
Diana: There's something fishy about it all, because I know Gilbert loves you. I HELPED him plan the recital.
Anne: Di, he tricked us all. It was all just some sick joke!
Anne went offline

Jerry and Ruby
Jerry: Do you love him?
Ruby: Who?
Jerry: You know who, Rubs.
Jerry: Oh.
Jerry: I'm sorry that I like you Ruby.

Josie and Ruby
Josie: Ruby, this was your doing, wasn't it?
