Seeking some outside help

With his new outfit exacerbating his already diminished walking capacity, Bree was starting to get fed up with having to wait for Brian to catch up with her. Sure, she could get him some comfier shoes and an outfit that actually fit correctly, but that wouldn't be much of a punishment, would it?

After paying for the new clothes, out of Brian's pocket of course, Bree had a plan for where to go next.

"Where are we, like, going?" Brian asked.

"Well, we can't disappoint Logan. He's gotta help you figure out what college options you've got." Bree replied. "And Jess should be able to help with that."

After a very, very, long walk, they arrived back at their apartment, which Bree shared with several roommates, including Jessica. A very pretty girl, you'd never imagine at first glance that Jess was both beauty and brains, as she was an expert computer hacker. As they sat on the couch, Brian with his legs crossed, Jess and Bree discussed business.

"So run me through this again, what exactly do you need?" Jess asked.

"Ashlyn needs some school records, grades, transcripts, maybe even an ID, do you think you can swing that?"

"A fake ID? That's no sweat, let me see what I can do." Jess pulled out her laptop and started tapping away at the keys.

After a few minutes, Jess turned the laptop around to reveal a half-empty transcript with "Ashlyn Morgan" at the top.

"Give me 'her' date of birth and then we can fill in the grades. I imagine mostly poor, right? C's and D's in math and science, enough not to be left back, but only because she used her feminine wiles to convince poor nerds to do her homework for her and let her cheat off of them, right?" Jess laughed.

"Ooh, definitely." Bree agreed. "And don't forget her SAT scores..."

Brian didn't much like being referred to as if he wasn't even there, but any moment that he wasn't under Bree's thumb was a moment he relished. Spotting his cell phone, Brian quickly picked it up, but with the long nails, he had no way of using it, so he tossed it back down.

"Smile!" Bree exclaimed, taking Brian off-guard, causing him to give Bree a confused look, which she quickly snapped a photo of with her phone. "Ooh, points for that Ashlyn, that's the perfect expression for a girl like you!"

"Send that to me, and I should have this all done in a few hours." Jess said. "Of course our little airhead's college prospects won't be great, but I'm sure Logan can find a fit somewhere..."

"Thanks, Jess!" Bree said. "Ashlyn?"

"Uh, like, thanks?" Brian hesitantly asked.

"Good enough," Bree sighed. "Now, get up!"

"Get up?" Brian asked.

"You didn't think that was the end of the day, did you? This was just an unexpected wrinkle that I had to fix. Now we've got another errand to run." Bree replied.
