"Walk over to those students in the middle of the bus," ordered Lisa.

"But I'm naked," Erica reminded her.

"And?" Lisa asked. "Now come on. Get with the program. Earn back some clothes. All you have to do is walk over and sit with those three..."

"Gordon, Malcolm, and Tricia," Alicia supplied.

"Right, walk over and sit with Gordon, Malcolm, and Tricia for... ten minutes," Lisa concluded.

"Ten minutes?" Erica parroted.

"Yes, ten minutes," Lisa confirmed. "Try not to leak all over the seat, Erica."

"I can't," Erica protested.

"Actually," she heard from behind her, "you can!" Carrie had navigated there without Erica noticing and gave her a shove to get her to start moving.

Erica stumbled along the bus a few rows toward Gordon, Malcolm, and Tricia. "But what would I say?" she asked incredulously.

Lisa did not reply, simply pointing at the destination she had demanded.

Erica started walking.
