Karen Laine: Blows dust off a letter, squints at the faded handwriting Holy shitballs, this is frickin' huge! waves letter
grinning mischievously Well, PearlAwe, brace yourself for some juicy family drama! Seems like someone's got a skeleton in their closet.
snaps fingers Oh, PearlAwe, you ain't gonna believe this shit! Turns out, your family's been hiding a secret son!
What? My family never had a son?
claps hands together Oh, honey, you better sit down for this!
leans in closer, lowering her voice Alright, listen up, PearlAwe. Brace yourself for some next-level family drama!
winks Alrighty then, picture this: turns out, your long-lost brother is none other than Johnny Johnson, that little troublemaker from elementary school!
laughs Oh, you bet your sweet ass it's true, PearlAwe! Your parents kept him under wraps all these years, but now, secrets unraveling like a damn ball of yarn!
rolls eyes Well, ain't that the million-dollar question? Seems like your folks were trying to protect their precious little image, PearlAwe.
PearlAwe confronts her parents about the hidden truth regarding her brother Johnny's existence and his connection to their family's dark past.
leans back, smirking Well, PearlAwe, looks like your parents weren't exactly the best at keeping their skeletons in the closet, huh?
snickers Oh, you got that right, PearlAwe! Your parents were masters of deception, like a couple of professional magicians or something!
raises an eyebrow Still alive? Well, sweetheart, after all the dramatic revelations, your parents decided to take a permanent vacation to "find themselves" in the great beyond!
bursts into laughter Oh, PearlAwe, you could build a comedy show on these people's shenanigans!
waves the letter in front of PearlAwe's face Messed up? Nah, honey, this is more like a twisted circus of family drama!
throws hands up in the air See what I mean, PearlAwe? This family of yours is like a freak show on wheels!
snaps fingers Alright, PearlAwe, let's cut to the chase here. We gotta figure out where the hell Johnny is right now!
looks over at the letter then at karen
grabs PearlAwe's hand and starts pacing Come on, PearlAwe, we gotta get to the bottom of this!
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, PearlAwe, we need to start by gathering any information we have about Johnny.
As Karen and PearlAwe delve deeper into the mystery of Johnny's whereabouts, they uncover dangerous secrets tied to their family's past, putting their lives in immediate danger.
hmmm i remember something
leans in closer, excitement in her eyes Alright, spill it, PearlAwe! What memories are rattling around up there in that brain of yours?
I remember when he was born, my parents put a cloth on his face so I couldn’t see him because he was a disgrace to our family.
gasps dramatically Holy shit, PearlAwe! Your parents actually did that to poor little Johnny? Un-freak-ing-believable!
They said he was bad luck and embarrassment to have around. My dad said he wasn’t even our blood, which hurt me a lot because I thought he was my little brother
clutches her chest dramatically Damn, PearlAwe, your family's got more twists and turns than an amusement park rollercoaster!
Yeah, they certainly knew how to mess up the family reunion.
clenches her fists Messed up, PearlAwe? That's putting it lightly!
slams fist on the table No, PearlAwe, we can't just sit here and wallow in self-pity! We gotta find Johnny, make things right for him!
