Ellen Friar: twirling hair You know, this place ain't doin' it for me. I need somethin' more, somethin' real.
I don't know what's worse...the daily grind or my wife's grip on the New Orleans social scene
leans in closer, with a mischievous grin Well, Richard, honey, let me tell you a little secret. The social scene ain't the only thing that's got me gripped.
Really? What else has got your attention?
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, Richard, my dear husband, I've got a whole list of things that have my attention. Let's see...
Alright, lay it on me. What's at the top of the list?
crosses her arms, looking smug Well, Richard, at the top of my list is finding true love. You know, that kind of love that makes your heart skip a beat.
True love? You must have some ideas on how to find it, don't you?
smirks Oh, you bet your ass I do, Richard. I've got a foolproof plan to find the real deal.
Alright, spill it then. What's this foolproof plan?
leans back, crossing her legs Well, Richard, step one is to ditch this mundane life we're living.
Yeah? And how exactly are we gonna do that, Ellen?
winks Oh, Richard, you'll see. We're gonna shake things up, turn this town upside down!
Alright, Ellen. I'm listening. What's next in this plan of yours?
grinning devilishly Step two, Richard, is to join a local underground club. You know, the kind of place where all the wild and crazy people hang out.
An underground club? Are you serious, Ellen?
raises an eyebrow Oh, Richard, trust me on this one. It's gonna be our ticket to adventure and excitement!
Alright, Ellen. I'm intrigued. What's the final step in your plan?
smirks Ah, the final step, Richard. This is where things get really interesting.
Alright, I'm game. What's the final step?
The final step in Ellen's plan involves sneaking into a secret underground boxing match, where she meets a mysterious man who captivates her heart.
Well damn, Ellen. Looks like your plan worked. Who's this mysterious man?
grinning mischievously Oh, Richard, you won't believe it. This mysterious man turns out to be...the mayor's son! Can you imagine the shock on his face when I revealed myself?
The mayor's son? Talk about a twist. So, what's the plan now, Ellen?
stands up, claps her hands together Oh, Richard, the plan is simple.
Simple? That's a relative term, isn't it? What's the plan, Ellen?
grabs Richard by the arm, leading him towards the door Alright, Richard, here's the plan. We're gonna confront the mayor's son and demand that he takes responsibility for us.
Confront him? Are you sure about this, Ellen?
grinning confidently Oh, Richard, trust me. I've done my homework.
Alright, Ellen. If you're sure about this, then I'm with you. Let's go confront that scoundrel.
pulls out a map and spreads it out Alright, Richard, we need to strategize. We gotta approach this confrontation with a plan.
Alright, Ellen. Let's hear it then. What's the strategy?
points to the map First, we're gonna gather as much information as possible about the mayor's son.
Information. Got it. How do we do that, Ellen?
starts scrolling through her phone We start by doing some good old-fashioned detective work, Richard.
Detective work, huh? Not my forte, Ellen. But I'll do it if it means finding a way out of this mess.
nudges Richard playfully Come on, Richard, don't act like you can't handle a little detective work.
Alright, Ellen. I'll do whatever it takes to solve this mess. Let's get started.
scrolls through social media profiles, news articles, and public records Alright, Richard, I've found some juicy information about the mayor's son.
Alright, Ellen. Spit it out then. What have you found?
leans in closer, speaking in a hushed tone Well, Richard, it turns out that the mayor's son has a secret side gig as a construction contractor.
A construction contractor? That's quite the twist. So how does that help us, Ellen?
winks Oh, Richard, it helps us because guess what he's been constructing lately? shows a picture on her phone
What in the world... Is that what I think it is?
grinning mischievously Bingo, Richard! It appears the mayor's son has been constructing his very own private mansion.
Good grief, Ellen. He's using public funds for a personal mansion? That's unacceptable.
nods vigorously You bet your ass it is, Richard! And here's the kicker - we know about this because of a tip from an inside source.
An inside source? You're full of surprises, Ellen. What's next?
clenches her fists, eyes gleaming with determination Next, Richard, we're going to expose his corruption to the public.
