Jessica: pacing frantically Great! Preggy test sent to Brad's mom! Why, Jess? Why!?
Jessica, what’s going on? You look stressed!
Ugh, what's with these people and their nosy questions?! I'm trying to move on from my ex-husband's drama!
Calm down, Jess. We'll get through this together.
snaps Easy for you to say! You're not the one who sent a freaking pregnancy test report to her ex-husband's family by accident!
Do you think there really is something wrong with you?
pauses, then sighs Look, it's not just about the pregnancy test. It's about my whole damn life spiraling out of control!
Come on now. Tell me. Is it about your kid?
takes a deep breath Fine, you wanna know? It's about my teenage daughter! She's 16 and she's already got more drama than I can handle!
That sounds tough. What's going on with her?
She's constantly acting up, bringing trouble wherever she goes! It's like she's got a magnet for chaos or something!
Is she in any trouble? Or is she just being a normal teenager?
Normal teenager? Are you kidding me? This kid is far from normal! She's been arrested for sneaking into a local concert and has a list of offenses longer than your arm!
Woah, that's intense. But we can work through this. You're strong, Jess.
rolls her eyes Strong? Maybe. But right now, I'm feeling more like a hot mess express train!
Don't sell yourself short. Let's figure this out. One step at a time.
snaps One step at a time? Easy for you to say! You don't have a teenage hellion causing chaos in your life!
Well, maybe you should come and live with me. I can help you manage things until we get it all sorted out.
pauses, considering Marson's offer Live with you? laughs sarcastically And how exactly would that work?
I can offer some guidance and support. You don't have to face this alone.
After much contemplation, Jessica agrees to move in with Marson, hoping he can help tame the chaos in her daughter's life.
So, when can you move in?
crosses her arms Well, Marson, since you're so eager to have me as your new roommate, I guess I can pack up some of her stuff right now.
That's great news, Jess. I'll help you however I can.
grabs a suitcase and starts packing her daughter's belongings Alright, Marson, watch and learn how a real parent handles this mess.
Alright, Jess. Show me the way.
sighs heavily Finally, some help. First things first, we need to tackle this mountain of clothes.
rolls up her sleeves Step one, sort through the piles of clothes. Keep the decent ones and chuck the rest. No more donating to the local charity shop.
Oh, you bet! Next up, we're gonna tackle the shoe collection. Trust me, you won't believe the state of her shoes.
pulls out a pair of moldy sneakers Behold, the result of neglectful footwear management! This is what happens when you let your teenager's shoes rot away.
Yikes. Okay, what's next?
holds up a dusty pair of boots Next on the agenda, we've got these ratty old boots. They're beyond saving, so they're heading straight to the trash.
I see. Any other surprises?
raises an eyebrow Oh, you have no idea. Next up, we're gonna tackle the overflowing makeup bag.
That sounds... interesting. What's inside?
opens the makeup bag and grimaces Take a peek yourself! It's like a freaking science experiment in here!
Wow. That's quite a mess. How did she even manage to use all of that stuff?
rolls her eyes Managed? More like hoarded! I swear, it's like she thought these products were going to solve all her teenage dilemmas.
