No One's POV-

Customer:"We took it home & turned it on, it's eyes were red. And something's wrong with it. It was just weird. And I just thought, with the new one coming out in two weeks, it would just be better for me to take this back, you know get it off my hands.... So, I'm just wondering, can I get my money back?"

Karen:"Yeah."

*the customer gives Karen the receipt & Karen takes it & brings the box in the back where her boss is*

Karen:"Hey Wes!"

*Wes turns around and faces Karen*

Wes:"Hi?"

Karen:"I was just curious, um... what happens to returns like this?"

Wes:"Uhhh...."

Karen:"Like really damaged returns."

Wes:"Yeah we uh... we send it back to Kaslan."

*He grabs onto the box but Karen holds a tight grip on it*

Karen:"And what do they do with it?"

Wes:"Probably toss it in the trash. I don't know. New model's coming out. No one's gonna give a rat's ass about this thing in 2 weeks."

Karen:"So, they won't care if it doesn't make it on the truck, right? *chuckles*"

Wes:"I care."

Karen:"Come on, my kid's birthday is coming up. Can i have it?"

Wes:"You've got a kid?"

Karen:"Yes, I've got a kid. I had a very productive sweet 16, okay? If you really wanna know."

*Wes hesitates*

Karen:"Come on. It'll be our little secret. No one has to know."

Wes:"Uh...."

Karen:"Just like that time you banged Susan in the warehouse. How's your wife, by the way?"

*Wes laughs nervously & looks behind him to see an employee minding their business*

Karen:"Haha. Can i have it? Give it to me."

*Wes grunts & Karen whines then snatches the box out of Wes' grip*

Karen:"And im taking it."

*Wes scratches his chin*

Karen:"There you go, Wes. Say hi to your wife."

Wes:"Yep. Mm-hmm."

*Karen leaves out the store*

                                           ♡♡♡

*Andy walks up to the apartment door, grabs his keys, then opens the door*

*Just to catch his mother & her boyfriend making out*

*Karen looks Andy's way & her eyes widen*

Karen:"Oh my god."

Shane:"Oh shit."

*Karen let's go of Shane*

Karen:"Hey! Noodle."

*Karen laughs nervously*

Karen:"You're home early."

*Andy rolls his eyes*

Karen:"Remember Shane?"
