Los Angeles. Officer Matt is parked on a bridge with his lights flashing. He gets out and walks over to a hot car with an even hotter girl inside. Matt's cell phone rings, but he ignores it. Why answer a phone when there are hot girls to arrest! The girl in the car is Eden and she's wearing ginormous sunglasses on her tiny little head. Sunglasses. At night. Because apparently we've headed back to 1983 and Eden's taking her fashion cues from Corey Hart. Matt thinks wearing sunglasses at night is stupid, so he orders her to take them off. She does so and smiles blandly at him. Oh, and she also tells him that she "kinda stole" the car and there's a half-empty bottle of liquor parked on the passenger seat. Matt gets all good-cop/bad-cop on her ass and tells her to get out of the car. "No, I don't feel like it," Eden sasses at him. "That wasn't a suggestion," snaps Matt. "Well, here's a suggestion," she says, "why don't you get back in your car and go eat a dozen donuts?" Matt's all, oh, you did NOT just say that to me! Get outta the car. Eden turns on her Electronic Voice Power Persuader and tells Matt again to go eat some donuts. With a confused look on his face, Matt just walks back to his car and drives off. Eden turns on her engine and looks up to see Mindblower just standing in front of her car, staring at her.
Odessa. Claire's lying across her stuffed-animal-strewn bed. Jackie the Cheertator enters and tells her that some other girl on the cheerleading squad has gout or fell down some stairs or accidentally drank bleach or something, so there's a position open on the team for Claire. Okay, no, actually, Jackie says that Laurie Trammell "skanked her way through the entire football team" and that Jackie refuses to have any skank but herself on the squad. It's actually a nice script moment, seeing as we know that Laurie was raped by Jock the Rapist and he told everyone he knew that she was a skank. Now that's the kind of writing I like to see! So, whatever, Laurie left the squad and now Claire can be the cheerleader she's always dreamt of being.
