[x] Pick Fuzzbuns up from the vet.
"Now that you mention it, I really haven't been giving enough attention to Fuzzbuns lately. I bet she's been lonely without me and trapped in that stupid vet must be even worse. Lets pick her up before anything!"
After hanging up, Felix tells Melanie the good news. "Want to come with me to pick Fuzzbuns up? It'd be nice to get her back in our house at least. I bet she's so lonely in that vet," he asks. "Sure Felix! You know I'd love to come with," Melanie replies. They decide to take Melanie's car again, for easiness' sake. At the vet, Felix talks with George Diccan, the head veterinarian. Felix grew quite close to George through his life because of his mother. Rose used to be the head vet at Gledenberg and George always worked closely with her. Felix is happy to see it's George that has been taking care of Fuzzbuns. "George! It's been a while! How are you?" Felix asks. "Felix! Heh... I've been good. Busy working, you know?" George answers. Suddenly, Felix gets this extremely odd feeling he's seen George recently. He thinks and thinks why this would be, but he can't place it. "Anyway, I'm here to pick up Fuzzbuns. They're letting me move back into my house now," he continues, shaking the odd feeling from his head. "I'll have her right out. She's a great kitty. And hey... So you two really are back together? I guess I do have to pay that damn woman 20 bucks," George moans. "Whoa wait up. YOU'RE the guy who bet Clarissa we wouldn't get back together?" Felix exclaims. "Heh... Sorry man. I thought it'd be an easy 20 bucks someday," George admits as he goes into the back to get Fuzzbuns.
Finally back home at the Legard residence, Felix lets Fuzzbuns out of her kennel. She purrs savagely and decides Felix is worthy of some love for picking her up so quickly, at least. "That silly cat sure loves you," Melanie notices. "Well of course! I saved her and nursed her to health. She's always been there for me," Felix tells her. "I'm gonna go feed her quick and be right back," he says, running downstairs. Upstairs again with Melanie, Felix notices the clocks are flashing. "Ugh...they must have had our power off for a while. I'll need to reset them. What time is it Mel?" he asks. She checks her watch and says, "10:40 ish. I'll help you get 'em fixed." While going around the house resetting clocks, the two notice how many things are out of place. They both think about how inconsiderate the FBI is. "I wonder if they found anything," Felix says. "I bet they found that tape and note, unless Chad removed it beforehand," she thinks.
Once they're done, they sit on the couch together. "House all to yourself now huh... Are you gonna keep it? It'd be hard to pay for without Chad..." Melanie says. "Yeah, I dunno what I'm supposed to do now. I can't afford to keep this house and continue going to college. Dad was always good about keeping things paid off, so the house is probably good for now. But that can only last so long... I'll probably have to get a small place around college. It'd be easier to work over there anyway," Felix thinks through the situation. "Don't worry about it so much Felix. I'm gonna be going to Riftook University now too you know. Maybe we could work out something together?" she suggests, somewhat hopefully. Not eager to jump into such a big decision, Felix says, "It'd definitely be a plan, but that's pretty important to just jump into without thinking through first." Melanie looks slightly shot down, but holds onto to her dreaming of getting a place with Felix.
The ringing of the phone comes as a savior to Felix, breaking him from his awkwardly challenging conversation with Melanie. "Hello, Felix speaking," he answers.
"Glad to see you're back home safely, my son."
[] Hang up.
[] Stay quiet and listen.
[] Demand to know why she's calling.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
