"You think I don't see you eyein' my heels? What's the plan, huh? You gonna spill the beans?"
No, that's not it. I'm just... I'm trying to figure you out. You're not what you seem.
smirks Oh, really? And what am I exactly? A supermodel hidden in plain sight as a nanny? Or maybe... Mrs.
laughs Mrs. Perino, huh? Well, color me impressed. You've got more tricks up your sleeve than a magician at a kid's birthday show. So, what's the deal with you and my boss?
raises an eyebrow Oh, honey, it's a long story. But let's just say, I've got a connection with your boss that goes beyond just employer and employee.
smiles Beyond that, huh? Well, now I'm intrigued. Care to elaborate, Mrs. Perino?
leans in closer Look, darling, I'll cut to the chase. Your boss and I, we have a history. A complicated one.
smiles A history, huh? That's quite the bombshell. And what exactly does that entail?
takes a deep breath Alright, here's the tea, sweetheart. Your boss and I were an item back in the day.
Really? Back in the day? So, you were a different person then?
laughs Oh, you betcha, honey! Back in the day, I wasn't the sophisticated Mrs. Perino you see now.
So, what changed? Why the sudden interest in my boss after all these years?
leans back, crossing her arms Well, sweetheart, let me tell you.
starts rummaging through her bag Let me show you something, darling. pulls out a photograph This, my dear, is us back in the day. Young, hot, and full of dreams.
raising an eyebrow Us? Well, ain't that a kick in the teeth. So, we go way back, huh?
As Dana shows Stranger the photograph, they both get lost in memories of their past relationship, leading to a night of confessions and rekindled passion.
Damn, Dana. I had no idea. So, we were quite the power couple, huh?
grinning mischievously Power couple? Oh, honey, we were more than that. We were the "It" couple back in the day.
smiles The "It" couple, huh? That's some legacy. And what happened to us? Because last I checked, we ain't exactly swimming in nostalgia here.
waves her hand dismissively Ah, details, details. Life had its way with us, you know?
chuckles Life, huh? Sounds like you've got one hell of a story to tell.
sits up straight Oh, do I ever! You see, sweetie, we were on top of the world, living large, until life decided to throw us a curveball.
smiling A curveball, huh? Well, that's one way to put it. So, what kind of sh*tstorm did we get caught up in?
leans forward, eyes twinkling Oh, where do I even begin?
leans in How about the beginning?
starts pacing around the room Okay, picture this, sweetheart. We're talking big city, bright lights, and a whole lotta drama.
chuckles Drama? Sounds like you've stepped into a soap opera, huh?
stops pacing, looks directly at Stranger Soap opera? Honey, we lived in a f*cking twisted fairy tale!
laughs A twisted fairy tale, huh? Now that's one I'd pay to see.
grabs a bottle of wine from the counter Hold up, darling. Let me pour us some wine.
laughs Wine? Sounds like the perfect accompaniment to a twisted fairy tale.
grabs two glasses from the cupboard That's the spirit, sweet cheeks! Now, let me set the stage for you.
