One Can Only Hope

Sarah winces as Elizabeth cleans and treats her scalp laceration. Sarah whines about not being able to wash her hair, then asks Elizabeth how she likes being a doctor. "Some days are better than others," Elizabeth smiles. "Must be weird seeing people nekkid [sic] and stuff," Sarah says, eyes gleaming. Elizabeth giggles that she's not overly fond of the hairy patients. Sarah chuckles. Then, seized by her conscience, Elizabeth sits down beside Sarah and gently informs the dumbfounded girl that she was probably raped. "You told my dad I was raped?" spits Sarah, angry. Elizabeth smiles that he has been trying to protect her, but that Sarah had a right to know, and then there's the internal and external bruising... "You looked inside?" screeches Sarah. "Who said you could?" Startled, Elizabeth reminds her that she was unconscious at the time. "I know it's confusing and scary," she begins. "I wasn't raped, you stupid bitch," seethes Sarah. "There were drugs..." Elizabeth sputters. "Yeah, Special K," Sarah says, grinning evilly. "It makes the sex all kind of swirly...It's like having twenty boyfriends and they all totally love me." This scene's made more alarming by how tiny Sarah looks. She seems at once both older and younger than fourteen. It's bizarre, and underscores how fucked up she apparently us. Elizabeth finds this pathetic, and totally unhealthy. "I do it every weekend," brags Sarah. "All the guys say I'm the best." What, she lies there like a drugged-out rag doll better than any other girl in school? Whee! Elizabeth stares at her in complete bafflement.

At dinner, Eric tells a bunch of forced stories about how Abby was a bad-ass in Catholic school. He's leaning toward Jody and when he's not flapping his gums about Abby, he's rubbing his lips all over his girlfriend. "How long are you staying?" Carter asks politely when they begin to make out again. Eric shrugs that they'd like to see the sights -- "I heard the art museum's neat," Jody says, winning a "how dumb can you be?" look from Abby -- before heading back to Ohio in a few days. Abby can't believe he had so much overdue leave banked. Then, Jody opens her trap and blurts that Eric's interviewing at O'Hare, which is seeking experienced air-traffic controllers. Eric's lips slurp Jody's ear. "I'm exploring my options," he says defensively when Abby questions this move. "I can't stay in the Air Force forever." Abby's speechless. "Is she always like this?" Eric asks Carter, getting up and grabbing his sister's hand. He bribes her onto the dance floor by threatening to tell Carter about the burned-down garage and her crush on a guy named Rafe. Abby leaps out of her seat. "Wait, I want to hear more about Rafe," Carter calls out gleefully. "Leather pants," Eric yells back. Oh, please. Get back to me if they were assless.
