Candi: "Objection! That was Liz! And she was boasting to me! I was telling her that I didn't think it wise!"

Pete: "So tell me, are you and that airplane mechanic still rolling in the hay, or have you gotten bored with him?"

Candi: "Denny is not an airplane mechanic! He's a doctor! And I am NOT sleeping with him!!!"



Pete: "I wasn't talking about Denny! But I'm sure you've been all over him too! And now you consider yourself a role model to teach little children!"



Candi: "I am not a skank, Pete!!! All these instances involve women you have me confused with!"

Pete: "And you know all of them how?"

Candi: "They go to the same school I do! And some of them attend this very building! Why aren't you going after them?"



Pete: "Because...the district president is going to be visiting with us very soon. The last thing we need is slime like you giving our building a bad name in the institution! Those others didn't apply to be teachers!"

Candi: "Then...I'm a victim of politics? How very cheap of you! And I thought this place was above such stupidity!"

Pete: "A little siren like you is hardly a victim!"



Candi: "And how does Nolle know I've talked to any of those girls? Has she been stalking me?"

Pete: "You will refrain from speaking any further of Ms. Barret!"

Candi: "I don't have time for this, you control freak! You're out of line! I'm talking to Denny about this!"



Pete: "There's no use in defending yourself, Candi...everyone knows what you've been doing!!!"

Candi: "Prove it, creep!"

Pete: "Take a look for yourself!"



As Candi opened the door, she found a sight that had her utterly dismayed...Pete was right! Since Candi first arrived, Nolle had done nothing but try to poison the congregation against her! Several angry faces stared at her as she tried to make her way to the exit.



Emmy: "No dreg of society is teaching a thing to my kids!!!"



Mehrissa: "You bit off more than you could chew this time, hussy!"



A feeling of absolute dread began to fall over Candi. How did this crowd of hate suddenly form so quickly around her? And in a church???

This was all wrong! She was the only living virgin Flippo from her generation, and was being treated as she imagined Mary must have felt before Joseph's dream.

Candi: "No...no!!! No!"



Candi: "You have it all wrong! How DARE you sickos accuse me!!!"



Then, right in front of Candi, stood her accuser—Nolle!

Nolle: "I knew I'd get you yet…FLIPPO!!!!"



Candi was completely taken aback! Did Nolle's voice just change so quickly? And how did Nolle know she was a Flippo? Was that even Nolle talking? The voice sounded familiar...in a bad way! The drone of voices continued...

"You hooker! Get out of this building!" and "The kids of this building are not available to street sleaze!" echoed repeatedly.

Candi went to Viron University - guilt by association! But that voice...



It was one thing to Candi that everyone had believed a lie about her, but it was quite another that she was starting to hear that voice again!

She could have sworn that Kimiyato was gone forever! But not only had Kimi returned...she had somehow turned everyone against Candi!



Kimi: "That's right, Flippo girl! That's what we get for being sneaky, dishonest cowards now, isn't it?"

The feeling of Kimi's return was so real to Candi at that moment, that Candi almost felt as though she really had returned - physically!



Candi sensed Kimi all around...but especially felt as if she had taken form from directly behind!

Kimi: "Poor centipede girl! Yes, I know! Life is so unfair, is it not?"



Candi: "You're not real! Get away from me, she-devil!"



Kimi: "Au contraire, foolish one! You are just merely seeing a projection of me! But I assure you, I am quite real!"

Candi: "You've lost all right to me!"

Kimi: "Perhaps..but I know what struggles exist in your heart!"



Candi: "What would you know of hearts? You don't have one!!!"

Kimiyato: "Oh, I had one once! Silly me too! But that's of no consequence anymore! It's yours that I care about!"

Candi: "You never cared about me!"

Kimiyato: "Brat! I have yearned for your demise for ages! And I will get it! Now listen! You know what Denny expects of you, you realize?"



Candi: "Denny respects me enough to wait! I lost Donte to a war that your precious Meethlite bosses started! I know Denny's position isn't as strong as mine! But he will not force me to..."

Kimi: "Silly girl! Why are you holding your position? Why force the man to be more patient than normal?"

Candi: "Because...it's the right thing to do!"
