"Hey Mama, you need any help with the food?" Izzy asked, walking into the kitchen.

"Ooh, could you? I need to finish the salad, can you do the pie?"

Izzy nodded and started adding the merengue to the top of the lemon pie. "What's all this food for, anyway?"

"Um... no reason!"

A few moments later, Red came into the kitchen. "Mm, smells good! Whatcha makin'?" He asked, kissing Kitty on the cheek, then Izzy on the top of her head.

"Oh, a little lemon meringue, a pot roast, my sister Paula is coming, and seven layer salad."

"Ah, seven layer-" Red's smile fell. "Hey, wait a second."

"Red, please. Be nice."

"Aunt Paula's coming?" Izzy asked confusedly. "Man, I haven't seen her in years."

Kitty nodded. "It's been almost six."

"Yeah, since she got arrested." Izzy snickered. Red shot her a look, and she quickly shut up.

"No no, not arrested!" Kitty insisted. "Detained."

Red sighed. "She showed up in the backseat of a police car with the lights flashing! I had to tell the neighbors that she was the mayor of Cincinnati!"

The three of them jumped slightly at the sound of a loud car honking outside. At first, Izzy thought the boys had come back early from their adult movie, but her jaw dropped when she saw a bright pink car parked in the driveway. "Holy sh...oot!" She exclaimed, censoring herself when she remembered her company.

"There she is!" Kitty said, clapping excitedly.

Red groaned as they all walked into the driveway. "She's going to hit me up for money, just like she always does." When he finally saw the car, his face went slack. "It's so... pink."

When Paula opened her door and jumped out of the car, Izzy could barely recognize her. She had perfectly feathered curls along with a pinkalicious ensemble that matched the car perfectly.

"Oh my gosh!" Kitty said excitedly, running up to her sister.

"Kitty!" Paula said, her arms outstretched.

"Oh my gosh, look at you!"

"I know, I know, I'm fabulous!"

The two hugged, and Kitty's eyes widened when she looked at Paula's outfit. "Oh my goodness, you're wearing stockings! Red, she's wearing stockings! Oh, oh! And matching shoes!"

Paula nodded. "Come on Red, I know you're dying for a nibble."

Red laughed awkwardly. "Paula!"

She kissed his cheek and turned to Izzy. "Oh my... amd who is this beautiful young lady?"

Izzy giggled. "Hi, Auntie Paula."

Paula gave her a hug, and when she pulled away, touched a lock of Izzy's hair. "Is this your natural color?"

"Mhm!"

"It's gorgeous, Isabelle, don't ever change it."

"You're so... pink." Red said.

"Ah, sure! I had to match my brand new car." Paula went up to her car and gestured her hands to display it. "Go ahead, pet her." Izzy and Red awkwardly walked up and patted the car.

"Why did you paint it with Pepto Bismol?"

"It's not Pepto Bismol. It's Luscious Blushes, and only the top Kathy May salesperson gets one of these babies!"

"So you stole it from her?"

Paula laughed loudly. "I have all the money that I owe you. Here it is."

"Oh my god. You have cash. Red, she has cash!" Kitty marveled.

Paula turned back to Izzy. "Isabelle, dear, you must let me give you a makeover sometime. You're just- ooh! You're like a little Barbie doll!"

Izzy grinned. "I would love that."

"I'm sure you would." Paula put an arm around her niece as the two walked into the house. "So, any boys in your life?"

"Ah, well, no. Not really."

-

"Honesty's cool, man." Kelso said. The guys were all home and had invited Izzy to their circle. "It's like, I can do anything wrong... and then ask for forgiveness, and then I'm good again. I mean, someone should invent a religion like that."

Izzy furrowed her brow. "And to whom are you referring with your newfound honesty?"

"Uh, Jackie and I are back together."

Izzy's eyes widened. "Wait, what?! How am I only finding out about this now?"

Fez giggled "Because you are too infatuated with you-know-who."

"Fez shut up." Izzy deadpanned, then turned to Kelso. "Spill. Now."

"Well, last week she made me pass all these tests of honesty and maturity and other crap-"

"Naturally."

"But I passed! And now we're back together!"

"Not to change the subject," Eric said. "But, um, did anyone besides me think that some of the guys in that movie were not... completely... average? Like, y'know, way, way above average?"

"Well, you don't go into that line of work when you're below average." Hyde said with a smirk. "You just pray some hot, redheaded neighbor girl likes you for your personality."

"What are you talking about?" Fez asked. "Those men were completely average. In fact, I found the guy with the mustache downright puny."

Izzy made a face. "Do we really have to talk about this in the presence of a lady?"

"Nah, Eric doesn't mind." Kelso said. "But Fez, I know that that's not honest. We all know you're small in the pants. What I'm saying is, from here on in, I'm only telling the truth! In fact, I'm gonna come clean to Jackie about everything."

"Fine, you want honesty?" Izzy asked. "I'll give you honesty. You're all small in the pants."

Fez nodded. "Ay, it is true."

"Kelso, this might be your best idea ever." Hyde said. "You know what? You should make a list of all the lies you've ever told Jackie. And I'll help you. Cause all I really want is for you to be happy."

Eric swallowed. "You guys, honestly. You don't think Donna's, you know... bored, right? Cause those guys in the movie, they didn't do the same move twice. And I've done the same move, like... always."

Kelso's eyes widened. "I bet they go to a special school. They're like doctors of doin' it!"

"Eric, Isabelle, dinner!" Kitty called from upstairs.

Eric sighed. "Oh, no. Now we have to act normal."

Izzy giggled. "Speak for yourself, I'm great at acting sober."

"No, Izzy Bee, you just act high all the time."

"No!" Izzy said amidst a fit of giggles.

-

At the dinner table, Eric was shoving food into his mouth as though he hadn't eaten in weeks. "Aunt Paula, you look great!"

"I know! Doesn't she?" Izzy said excitedly. "I adore that shade of pink."

"Oh, you twins are so cute! Here's twenty bucks." She handed each of them money, and their eyes widened.

"Aunt Paula is awesome!" Eric tried to whisper to Izzy, but ended up yelling.

"So, Paula," Kitty said, laughing. "Tell me more about the ship captain!"

Paula laughed and waved her off. "Oh, that was just a fling, ya know?"

"Didn't you have a fiance the last time we saw you?" Red asked.

"Red, now there is no reason to rehash ancient history." Kitty said quietly.

"No, it's okay!" Paula insisted. "It turned out he lived on some sort of commune, where everyone called him God? And there were... there were guns. And I really could never figure out why God would need a gun. But, woo! There were some fun parties!"

Izzy grinned. "That's the dream!"

Eric got caught in a laughing fit and nodded excitedly. "That's hilarious! Imagine Izzy, in a cult!"

Kitty sighed. "Well, we'll leave that for Laurie to explore."

"Life has just gotten so much better since I moved to Indianapolis." Paula said. "I mean, things move so much faster in the big city!"

"Oh, it's my dream to move to the big city." Izzy said dreamily.

"No no, no big cities for you." Red said.

Paula shook her head. "Isabelle, you'd love it. One day, you're wondering if you'll ever find happiness, and the next, you're waving the starting flag at the Indy 500!"

Red dropped his fork in surprise. "You waved the Indy flag?" Paula nodded.

"God, you're the coolest!" Eric exclaimed. "Mom, how funny is it that while Aunt Paula was at Indy, you were probably at, like, PriceMart!"

There was an awkward silence, then Kitty stood up. "Okay!" She said, laughing. "Who wants pie? It's meringue!"

"Well, enough about me." Paula said. "Kitty, dear, what have you been up to?"

"Well, you know, it's funny you should ask. Because we have been super, super busy-"

"Oh, no no," Eric said, interrupting his mother. "She quit her job. She's not up to anything. It's kinda boring. So, did you meet Dick Trickle?"

"Eric! Ew!" Izzy whined, tearing off tiny bits of bread roll and lining them up on her plate.

"What?! He's a race car driver. His name is Dick Trickle!"

Izzy giggled. "Okay yeah, that's kinda cool."

"Oh my god!" Eric yelled. "Listen to my voice! I am so loud!" He grabbed the pie from Kitty and took his fork, digging straight in.

-

"He did?!" Jackie yelled in disgust. Jackie and Izzy were sitting on Donna's porch, due to some "disgusting and appalling" news Donna had for them regarding Eric. "What the heck for?!"

"I don't know!"

Izzy made a face. "In what universe is that sexy?"

"Only one!" Jackie held up a finger. "The skinny pervert universe!"

"It was just so strange." Donna said. "I mean, he usually just sticks to, like, two or three key moves."

"You know, I bet it's because of that nudie flick they saw yesterday." Izzy said, crossing her arms.

Donna scowled. "They went to an X-rated movie?"

"Didn't Eric tell you?" Jackie asked. "Because Kelso told me."

Izzy nodded. "Hyde told me. And then Fez explained it to me in great detail when they got home."

"Eric didn't." Donna said. "God, why would he go see something like that? I mean, damn, is our sex life so boring that he has to sneak around and watch other people do it?"

"Donna," Jackie said softly. "Of course it is."

-

"Hey, Hyde." Izzy said cheerfully, bouncing down the basement stairs.

"Hey, Izzy Bee. What's up?"

Kelso, who was sitting on the couch with Jackie, turned and grinned at Izzy. "Turns out, I don't have to tell Jackie everything! Only the real important stuff."

Izzy laughed. "That sounds like a smart decision. Uh, Hyde, my mom wants your help with something upstairs."

Hyde got up, setting his comic book on the table. "Yeah? What for?"

"Dad's on a grocery run and she needs help moving some stuff around the garage."

He laughed. "Alright. C'mon."

The two of them headed upstairs, where Paula and Kitty were laughing on the couch. "Oh! Auntie Paula, this is Steven."

He held out his hand. "Uh, nice to meet ya."

She smiled and the two shook hands. "Well, Izzy! You've found yourself quite a strapping young man."

Izzy's eyes widened, and she started laughing. "You hear that, Steven? Has anyone ever called you strapping before?"

He nodded. "Yep. Mrs. Forman."

Kitty laughed and stood up. "Okay, Steven, to the garage we go!" The two left through the kitchen door, leaving Izzy and Paula.

Paula set her hand on Izzy's shoulder. "Really, Isabelle, I wasn't kidding earlier. Would you let me give you a makeover? I want to be the cool aunt, you know?"

Izzy giggled. "Of course." She paused. "Oh, you mean right now?"

"Yes, right now!"

"Okay! Um... do you want to go up to my room, or-"

"Oh no no, Red already told me how much of an artist you are! Very impressive. But, I'd rather not get paint all over my ensemble today."

"Understandable. Kitchen, then?"

-

Izzy sat at the kitchen table, looking into the handheld mirror. Her eyes were wide as she examined the work Paula had done.

It was, in a word, beautiful.

Izzy's hair was perfectly curled, her makeup was applied even better than Jackie could have, and for once her clothes didn't seem as ordinary. She felt beautiful.

"Oh," she breathed out. "Auntie Paula, it's... I love it. Thank you."

Paula smiled. "See? I told you! Barbie doll!"

Izzy smiled faintly. "Barbie doll."

She stood up, smoothing out the dress Paula had put her in, right as Hyde came back through the sliding glass door, holding a large cardboard box.

"Hey, Izzy Bee," He said, not looking up. "Your mom wanted me to move these canvases into your room, where do you- oh." He swallowed, his face turning a bright red. He thanked his lucky stars his sunglasses were shielding most of his face. "Oh, shit."

Izzy smiled and twirled around once. "You like?" Hyde watched in awe as her skirt floated around her.

"I... Yeah." He cleared his throat. "Um, so I- I'm just gonna put this stuff in your room, a- and then tonight, maybe we can watch a movie in the basement?" He started rambling, the box slipping from his fingers. "Eric really wanted to watch Gilligan's Island, but I mean, we watch that all the time and they're never getting off that damn island." He shifted the box on his knee to get his grip back. "And I, uh, I, um... you look really pretty."

Izzy felt her cheeks turn red. "Thank you."

Hyde nodded quickly and left the room. Izzy was left standing, watching the door close behind him.

Paula came up behind her and set a hand on her shoulder. "Is he the 'Not really'?"

Izzy looked up at her aunt. "Mhm."

-

"Auntie Paula, I really wish you didn't have to go so soon." Izzy said, following Paula out into the driveway.

"I'll be back to visit, don't worry! And you must come to Indianapolis, you would love it. Although, to be fair, you seem like a New York type of girl yourself." She walked up to Red and Kitty who were canoodling in the driveway. "Alright, you two lovebirds! I'm off." She gave Red a hug. "Oh, bye bye, Red!" She turned to Kitty, who was looking quite spiffy with her makeover.

"Oh Paula, thank you so much." The two hugged quickly.

"Aw, Kitty, what are sisters for? I'll talk to you in a couple of days. And please, remember what I said. Cherchez la vie pour vivre la vie!"

Kitty grinned. "Oui oui ma soeur!"

"And Isabelle." Paula gave her a short hug. "I'm going to miss you."

"I'll see you soon, Auntie Paula."

"Of course!" She got into her car and pulled out of the driveway. Before driving off, she rolled down her window once Red and Kitty were back in the house. "Oh, and Barbie. Go get him."
