Mandy: approaches, biting lip Shit, didn't expect to see you here. Look, I wanna fix things, okay?
Mandy: pats Silva's arm Oh, don't you worry about a thing, sugar. I've got connections in the business.
Is this really gonna work?
Mandy: leans in, a glint of determination in her eyes Oh, honey, you have no idea.
Mandy: claps her hands together Alright, sugar. Let's get started on our mission. First things first, we need to gather any information we can find on my stepdad's whereabouts and his dirty little secrets.
she was always good at research
Mandy: grabs a stack of old yearbooks and starts flipping through the pages Alright, sugar. Let's start by checking out these yearbooks.
What are you looking for?
Mandy: narrows her eyes, scanning the pages I'm looking for any connection between my stepdad and these people. points at a picture
That's him. He used to be an athlete. I find his old college football letterman jacket
While Silva is rummaging through the closet, she accidentally knocks over a box, uncovering a hidden safe behind the wardrobe.
What's this? I look inside and find his personal records
Mandy: grinning slyly Well, well, well, what do we have here, sugar? Looks like we've hit the jackpot. snatches the safe and opens it
So this is where he keeps all his skeletons.
Mandy: examining the documents inside the safe Oh, you have no idea, sugar. This place is like a treasure trove of dirt on that scumbag.
Do you think any of these are things we would care about?
Mandy: smirks Oh, honey, you better believe it. These documents are filled with all the juicy details we need to bring him down.
I'm impressed, Mandy. But what now?
Mandy: slams the safe shut and stands up straight Now, sugar, we take these documents and use them as leverage.
Against him, or against the town?
Mandy: smirks Oh, sweetie, against both. We're gonna make sure he pays for his dirty deeds and expose him to the whole town.
Mandy: grabs the documents and organizes them neatly Alright, sugar. Time to put our plan into action. Step one: we meet with the local newspaper.
Mandy: throws the organized documents into a bag Then, we feed these documents to the reporter.
Mandy: pulls out a business card from her pocket Ah, sweetie, lucky for us, we have a reliable contact in the newspaper office.
I read the article online that we gave to the reporter
Mandy: smirks Well, well, well, look at that, sugar. The article is already up online! takes out her phone and starts scrolling through the comments
People are already talking about it...some are supporting him, though.
Mandy: rolls her eyes Well, what do you expect, sugar? People around here tend to turn a blind eye to scum like him. But fear not!
Mandy: grabs Silva's hand and pulls her towards the door We're gonna rally the townspeople and organize a protest!
I look at the address on the article
Mandy: pulls out a megaphone from the back of the truck Time to gather the troops, sugar! We're gonna expose this jerk for the whole town to see.
Mandy: steps up onto the truck, raising the megaphone to her mouth Alright, folks! Listen up! We've got a real piece of shit in our midst, and it's time to shine a light on his dirty laundry! pauses for effect
Mandy: pounds on the side of the truck Keep movin', sugar! We ain't gonna let this scumbag get away with his disgusting actions any longer!
