Marie Jensen had been a desk clerk for only a few weeks. She knew people she could trust and people who she hated outright. Jennifer Barrett was one of those people she hated outright. When she worked at ORMC, she and another former staff member, Mary Lynn Anderson, first met Jennifer when she was admitted to the psych unit. Jennifer struck them as ultra snobbish, and too grand for them. It was confirmed when her rich boyfriend, Zach Janson, would always visit. Now, she and Mary Lynn worked at the Futura, mainly to give Sarah Jo McArthur, whom Marie knew as well, some help; and also to keep an eye on the troublesome Jennifer. Jennifer and Zach act like they're to the manor born, she thought furiously, from what I've heard about her from her former husband and Sarah Jo, she wasn't all that. When she became a model, she just got snotty. Also, I've heard things about her infamous recklessness. I couldn't stop her in the hospital, but I can certainly stop her here! And I will. As Marie was finishing some paper work, who should walk out of the elevator banks but Jennifer herself! She sauntered along the lobby, wearing a new sable coat that her attentive Zach had bought her. "Oh my God!" Jennifer sneered, "If it isn't you! Marie Jensen!" "Missed me, eh?" Marie sneered back. "Like I'd miss the plague," Jennifer said acidly, "when did Sarah Jo lose her marbles to hire you?!" "She hired me because she was so short handed with the holidays," Marie defended Sarah Jo's decision, "not that it's any of your business." "It most certainly is my business!" Jennifer shot back, "Why would she hire you, Nurse Ratched!" "As I said," Marie said in an angry voice, "Sarah Jo was short handed, and she needed help!" "She doesn't even know you," Jennifer snapped. "Ah, don't be so sure of that," Marie spat at her, "I also happen to know her too, hot shot! She and I attended post graduate school together!" "And I needed help, and I still do need help!" Sarah Jo came out of her office and glared at Jennifer, "so don't doubt my honesty! And leave Marie alone!" "I doubt everything about you!" Jennifer snapped at her, acting as imperious as she had in the sorority. "That kind of snotty behavior won't wash here!" Sarah Jo snapped, "I run this place, may I remind you, and you do not!" "I can fix that!" Jennifer sneered at her. "No you won't," Sarah Jo said in a threatening voice, "Disney owns this resort, and I am a manager! Just because you have a rich boyfriend who throws money around to get you what you want, doesn't mean you have the power to run the rest of this town!" "I certainly do!" Jennifer said. "Don't be so sure of that, dear!" Cathy Rizzo said, coming into the lobby and directing a glare at Jennifer. "Who are you to talk to me, like that?" Jennifer said in a snotty voice. "The grandmother of the son you so callously discarded!" Cathy said angrily, "I have some news for you!" "What?" Jennifer sneered, looking amused. "Once the holidays are over," she snapped, "Dave and I are moving here full time!" Jennifer looked like she had been struck in the stomach. "You can't do that!" she sneered. "We most certainly can," Cathy snapped, "since it was you and your recklessness that nearly toppled Elixir. Dave and I certainly can't go back to Los Angeles, not after what you did to us." Jennifer laughed in scorn. "It was no more than what you deserve!" she said nastily, "and I still say you have no right to move here!" "She most certainly does," Sarah Jo said, "she is Aidan's grandmother, and she has every right to be here for her grandson! I will not tolerate any attempts on your part to undermine that!" "Oh shut up!" Jennifer sniffed and stormed off to the front door. "Don't let it hit you in the butt on the way out!" Sarah Jo said nastily. She and Zach were going to the Bahamas for the holidays. "I am not going to be back for weeks," Jennifer said imperiously, "and when I get back, I want the Rizzos out!" "That is not going to happen," Sarah Jo said coldly, "they are permanent residents, or will be!" "ZACH!" Jennifer screamed, furious that her wishes were being denied, "Make her see reason!" "You can't have Aaron's parents stay here permanently," Zach oozed, "it just can't be done!" "You two are absolutely pathetic!" Sarah Jo said, not buying this, "How dare you two tell me how to run this resort! You are trying to undermine me, and I don't have to tolerate it! If you keep this up, it won't be the Rizzos thrown out, it will be you two who will be thrown out!" "We can always go elsewhere," Zach said. "Fine, then," Sarah Jo said, "then both of you go!" "Gladly!" Zach said, "Jenn, wait, and we will call a limo. We're getting our things out of here!" A couple of hours later, Zach and Jennifer were on their way out. "Just so you know," Jennifer said angrily to Sarah Jo, "you traitor, you took the word of my in-laws over me!" "They are honest!" Sarah Jo said, "unlike you and your lies! Now get out of my resort!" They left the Futura, but Sarah Jo and Marie knew they would be back. "I am proud of you," Marie said. "Then why do I feel like I was scolded by my mother?" Sarah Jo said. "Jennifer let money go to her fat head," Marie said. "Yeah," Sarah Jo smiled, "she did. But who cares about her? We have the holidays to plan." "I've got a wonderful idea," Marie said, "the Candlelight procession is at Epcot. Why don't we go there? That will be something to do." "Not a bad idea," Sarah Jo said, "we've got enough staff to help out during the evening." So, that evening, Sarah Jo, Aaron, Rusty, Liz, Mary Lynn, Marie, the Rizzos and Aidan went to Epcot to see the Candlelight procession. With Sarah Jo's clout as the Futura manager, they could get dinner seats. The group had a fantastic dinner, and then went to the procession. Aidan's eyes were wide, as he watched and listened to the music. Aaron smoothed his little boy's hair as he looked at him. Sarah Jo noticed how much Aaron loved his son. Her resolve was deepened. I am not going to let Jennifer Barrett threaten me, or her well moneyed boyfriend intimidate me, she thought with resolve, I will keep the Rizzos here, and there is nothing those two idiots can do to stop them. David and Cathy being here is the thing that Aidan needs. He needs his family around him right now. And I will see to it that happens. Meanwhile, Jennifer and Zach arrived in the Bahamas. "Now, this is where we belong," Jennifer said gleefully. Zach had a surprise for her. "How about this?" he said. Jennifer squealed, "Are you?" she asked. "Yes," Zach said, "I love you, Jennifer Barrett. Will you marry me?" "YES!" she screamed, "I will certainly marry you, Zach! Won't that be a turn to those losers?!" (Camera fades to black!) |
