"so tell me more about the big ladder thingy." jackie said.

"the cherry picker. funny story. true story." the guy began.

isabella felt an arm wrap around her shoulder so she got up and grabbed jackie.

"jackie, i've had enough of this, and we're leaving." isabella told her.

"okay. look, bella, we both don't have boyfriends. i don't know about you, but i don't want to sit home alone every night. and if somebody doesn't tell me i'm cute in the next five minutes, i'm gonna scream!" jackie said pulling isabella back to the table.

"hi. sorry, my friend was being a wet blanket." jackie said.

"well, maybe i should talk to her. i mean, wet blanket's a fireman's best friend." he said making jackie laugh.

"boy, something about you is so familiar." he said.

"you know, i get that all the time. see, from the right, i look like gidget and from the left, i look like elizabeth taylor. neat, huh?" jackie said.

"oh, it's your laugh! you know, i used to date a girl with the same laugh, but that was 20 years ago. she dumped me and married some rich lawyer. burk...burkhart. that was it." he said.

"this just got interesting." isabella said to donna.

"0h, my god, that's my name, and my dad's a rich lawyer!" jackie said.

"oh, my god." her and the firemen said at the same time.

"so, jackie, was this in the play you wrote?" donna asked her.

-

jackie was driving isabella and donna back home.

"i am so grossed out. i need a calgon bath, a facial, some tater tots, and some jean nate." jackie said.

"this night was the worst." donna said.

"you think?" isabella said from the backseat.

"i know. i mean, i am not gonna find love in a bar. all i'm gonna find there are guys who used to french my mom. i mean, just this morning, i was playing airhead my pretty ponies. and look what you've done to me, donna, look!" jackie said.

"me? i'm not the one who hooked up with the volunteer fire department." donna said.

"and then tried to get me to do it." isabella said.

"i am never gonna meet anybody, and i'm never, ever gonna feel better, ever." jackie said.

"jackie, when you're sad, you look exactly like mary tyler moore." donna told her.

"oh, my god! donna, i do! i am gonna make it after all!" jackie said throwing her hat but it hit donna in the face.

"damn." jackie said while isabella laughed.

-

isabella was out on the porch with donna and jackie. jackie was filing her nails and she noticed donna was getting annoyed.

"donna, are you okay?" isabella asked her.

"jackie, that's really annoying." donna snapped.

"donna, is there something you need to talk about?" jackie asked her.

"can you guys keep a secret?" donna asked them.

"of course." isabella said knowing she was still keeping a big secret from her.

the girls still had no idea about her kissing hyde. she knew if jackie found out she'd be jealous.

"not really." jackie replied.

"i'm holding out on eric." donna said.

"didn't see that coming." isabella said.

"donna, that's great! so how long has it been?" jackie asked her.

"three of the longest days of my life. maybe i should just cave." donna said.

"no." jackie and isabella said at the same time.

"donna, think about it." isabella said.

"when he caves, you own him." jackie said.

"i think i want it more than eric." donna said.

"eww. why? donna, sex is how we control men. if they ever find out we want it too... we'll never get jewelry again. " jackie said.

-

isabella was sitting at dinner and she couldn't help but giggle at her brother's appearance. his hair was cut poorly. it was uneven and he had a bald spot on the left side.

"bryan, who did your hair?" isabella giggled as she ate.

"mija, be nice." mary said.

"mary, look at him." david said agreeing with isabella.

"well, laur- one of my friends, is going to cosmetology school and she needed a model for one of her assignments." bryan explained.

isabella rolled her eyes. she knew laurie had just enrolled in cosmetology school.

"well, don't let her do you hair again." mary said.

-

jackie and isabella walked into the hub to see donna. they saw her talking to the boys.

"guess i'll have to take one of your losers." donna said as the girls went up to her.

"woah. wait, a second." isabella said getting donna's attention.

isabella locked eyes with hyde for a second before they looked away from each other, no one else noticed the tension.

"take a loser where?" jackie asked her.

"zeppelin." donna said holding up her two tickets.

"zeppelin!" jackie and isabella said excitedly.

"oh, my god. that's a band, right?" jackie said.

"donna, take me. you know i love zeppelin." isabella said before kelso shoved her.

"donna. in the ninety grade i did an oral report on stairway to heaven, and i got a b plus. you gotta take me." kelso said as hyde pushed kelso.

"donna, in the ninety grade, i wasn't a dork... and i didn't write a report on stairway to heaven. and you gotta take me." hyde said as jackie shoved the two boys.

"god! she doesn't wanna take either one of you, cause she's taking me. donna, M-E, me!" jackie said as isabella shoved past them.

"donna, we're like best friends and i've always been there for you... oh, i love zeppelin, take me. donna, take me!" isabella said.

"okay, you know what? i'm going." eric says standing up.

"buzz kill." isabella mumbled.

"i can't." eric said sitting back down realizing he had to work.

donna ended up giving the tickets away to fez and the girl that he was crushing on.

-

isabella hadn't found the right time to talk to hyde but she definitely noticed something was off between the two of them.

"hey, guys, guess what i got." kelso asked.

"VD?" hyde asked as he read the newspaper.

"no. a 100 bucks." kelso said.

"so money to treat your VD?" eric joked making isabella laugh.

"no. my grandmother gave me this money. see, my mom told her that she needed to bleach her whiskers. and i was like, i go, what whiskers? which is a total lie, because she's got these honking whiskers. but then it made her so happy she gave me a 100 bucks." kelso said.

"no offense, michael. but your mums not one to talk. i mean... whoo!" jackie said referring to his mother's whiskers.

everyone started to laugh at her joke which made kelso angry.

"hey! my mother is a beautiful woman. apologize." kelso said.

"sorry." hyde said.

"sorry." isabella and eric said at the same time.

"she's nice." donna said.

"whisker face." jackie said.

"all right, thank you! now we gotta go celebrate this 100 bucks. let's all go out to dinner. someplace expensive. someplace nice." kelso said.

"let's go to the vineyard. my new ladylove, caroline, works there." fez said.

"well, i missed something." isabella said.

"caroline from the concert? have you guys gone out again?" donna asked fez.

"no." fez replied.

"so, have you guys hung out at school?" eric asked.

"no." fez replied.

"talked on the phone?" jackie asked.

"no." fez said again.

"have you had any contact with her at all?" kelso asked.

"no." fez said.

"sounds like true love." isabella said.

"so caroline's your new lady?" hyde asked fez.

"yes." fez replied.

"that's great." hyde told him.

"thank you." fez said.

soon after, the whole gang was sitting down at the restaurant.

"there she is. isn't she lovely? she reminds me of that song isn't she lovely. here she comes. here she comes. watch me impress her." fez said standing from his seat.

"hi, fez." caroline said.

"hello, caroline." fez said as his voice cracked.

"i just came over to say hi." caroline told him.

"hi." fez said.

"hi! bye." caroline said.

"bye." fez said as she ran off.

"did you see how i played her?" fez asked the gang.

"oh, my." isabella said.

"hey, kelso, thanks for dinner. it was great." donna said.

"yeah, it was delicious." eric said.

"thanks, kelso." isabella said.

"thanks so much." jackie said.

"hey, guys, no need to thank me. i'm happy to do it. okay. everybody ready?" kelso asked putting the check down.

"um, don't you have to pay first?" eric asked him.

"i'm not paying." kelso said.

"what?" donna and isabella said in unison.

"what, did you think i was paying?" kelso asked them.

"yes. kelso, we don't have any money." eric told him.

"you don't need any. people, we are on a dine and dash here. yeah, cause the only thing better than eating lobster is eating lobster and hauling ass. let's haul ass." kelso said going to stand but eric pushed him back down.

"this is gonna be a long night." isabella said.

"no kidding." hyde mumbled while looking at her angrily.

isabella wanted to have a moment alone to talk to him but the gang was always around.
