Don: Oh, we're gonna need to use your car. There was a rabid skunk in the yard last night. I grabbed up the shotgun and I got him... but it led out a big cloud of stink out all over the car.
Bill: Couldn't wait til tomorrow, huh?
Don: No. (chuckles) (edit) (Bill comes home late at night and snuggles up to Margie in bed.)
Margie: (half asleep) Where's Nicki?
Bill: What??
Margie: It's Nicki's night. You gotta go.
(Bill sneaks through the house, across the backyard and up to Nicki's bedroom.)
Nicki: Honey, what are you doing here?
Bill: It's our night!
Nicki: It was. Didn't you get my message? See the Post-It?
Bill: Post-It?
Nicki: I traded with Barb. (edit) Heather: (to Donna) You know what, I've upped my standards, so up yours. (edit) Barb: (seeing Nicki come home carrying several shopping bags) How's the "family emergency" going?
