“I’m sorry” said Waffles. “Strudel, you already know, right?”

“Yeah” said Strudel. “I know”

“Let’s go in” said Strawberry.

“Ok” said Strudel, as they walked into the school.  They went and sat down on the couches.

Doreen & Fiona came up behind them.

“Oh, the murderer is back” said Fiona.

“Fiona” Pancake said from another chair. “Get over it”

“Well” said Doreen. “I’ve been given jury duty”

“You’re not old enough to be given jury duty” said Strudel.

“Oh, but I am” said Doreen. “My Aunt Charlotte works at the court. She said that me & Fiona can sit in on the case”

“You can’t do that!” said Waffles.

“Yes I can” said Doreen. “And we’ll support you 100%, Waffles”

More people were starting to come in.

“Make sure you don’t leave stains on the couch, Strudel” said Fiona.

Strudel took his arm out from around Strawberry, and stood up. “Fiona-” he warned.

“Strudel, don’t” said Strawberry.

Strudel sat down.  “Don’t mess with me” he said to Doreen & Fiona.
