Roo: I ASKED YOU A QUESTION, MISTY! WHERE IS JOSH?!
Freya: Listen here, you lowlife! I am not Misty!
Roo: YOU ARE A BOYFRIEND STEALER, MISTY!
Freya: Misty is my friend, you crazy bitch!

*Paula looks at him caringly*
Paula: I’m sorry.
*Leanne comes downstairs*
Leanne: Does anyone go to bed around here?

Leanne: Of course I do.
Paula: Come here both of you.
*Leanne and Ben hug Paula*
(Meanwhile, Freya is telling Misty about what happened with Roo.)
Misty: What’s Roo Stewart doing back in town?
Freya: Who knows? I tell you one thing, she’s possessed.
Misty: How?
Freya: It seems like she wasn’t all there. She kept mentioning Josh.
Misty: Is she STILL not over Josh?! Man, she’s pathetic!
Freya: I think she was on drugs.
Misty: That’s her problem. But are you okay?
Freya: A bit shaken, but okay. *smiles*
Misty: I just wish I knew WHY Roo is back in town. I’m going to find out one way or the other. *looks determined*

The next morning (Thursday), Amanda (or Atlee) is waiting for her bus to take her to Summer Bay High.
Atlee: The bus is late as usual!

Atlee: About bloody time!
*Atlee gets on the bus and sits in the back row with one of her former Mangrove River High classmates*
Atlee: Hey Brooke.
Brooke: Oh, hey Atlee.
Atlee: How’s Year 11 going?
Brooke: Boring. How’s your new school?
Atlee: It’s okay I guess. I’ve been hanging out with Geri Weaver. Remember her?

Edina: Or what?
Atlee: THIS! *slaps Edina in the face*
*Edina runs off in a hurry*
Chantelle: Thanks, um…I’ve forgotten your name.
Atlee: Amanda Atkinson, but call me Atlee.
Chantelle: Why?
Atlee: I’ve combined my middle name and the first two letters of my surname as my nickname. Pretty cool, huh?
Chantelle: I see.
Atlee: My full name is Amanda Lee Atkinson.
Chantelle: Now, I know where “Atlee” comes in. *smiles*
Atlee: That’s correct. *smiles back*
(Meanwhile, Sophie is flirting with Blake.)

Sandy: What’s up your pants, sir?
Peter: SHUT UP CROSBY! YOU AND YOUR MALICIOUS FRIENDS HAVE CAUSED KIERAIN TO HAVE A BREAKDOWN!
*Some students laugh*
Peter: IT IS NOT FUNNY! HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF A BASKETBALL HIT YOU IN THE FACE? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF A PHOTO YOU DIDN’T WANT PEOPLE TO SEE WAS SHOWN ALL OVER SCHOOL? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF PEOPLE CALLED YOU NAMES?
*The students go silent*

*One of Esme’s friends, Nette, has a go at her*
Nette: BE QUIET, ESME!
Esme: What?
Nette: I am tired of listening to you gossip about that poor disabled boy. I thought you of all people would’ve cared about disabled people.
Esme: He’s a drunken lout, not too mention a rebel!
Nette: DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK THAT THERE IS A REASON BEHIND IT?!
