Chapter 23 [Episode 23] {Season 1 Finale} Part 1:
In the morning, Nick called Amanda to tell her about the party but she wasn’t there so he talked to Ellie.
Nick: Hey Ellie is Amanda there?
Ellie: Do you know what time it is!?… It’s 7 o’clock in the morning!
Nick: Umm sorry I thought you were awake. Is Amanda there?
Ellie: No, I think she was out partying last night.
Nick: What?!…Ellie! I was with her the majority of the afternoon yesterday. It’s highly doubtful that she went to a party after.
Ellie: OK then bye.
Nick: ELLIE! Can I talk to you?
Ellie: You have ten minutes to talk.
Nick: There’s a New Year’s Eve party at my house at 9 o’clock can you tell Amanda too?
Ellie: Yeah sure bye *hangs up*.
Nick: And can you tell Amanda to call me later? *Silence* Ellie! Great you hung up…
The night of the New Year’s Party, at 8:30, Amanda and Ellie are at home…
Amanda: *on the phone* You’re going tonight, aren’t you Sara?…OK, well I don’t think I’m going. Have fun. Bye! *hangs up*
Ellie: *walks into room* Time to get ready.
Amanda: Oh shoot, I didn’t have enough time to get a dress. Guess I can’t go.
Ellie: Aw you only HAD 4 days to get a dress, but…good thing I got mine along with yours! *pulls a knee-high blue dress from behind*
(A/N: The dresses Amanda and Ellie wear can be seen at the end of the video)
Amanda: Pretty, but I don’t think it’ll fit.
Ellie: Don’t worry. I know your size. *throws dress on bed* Get dressed.
Amanda: I really don’t know Ellie. I mean, look at the back of the dress, it’s…missing…a chunk.
Ellie: Well that’s the way La Femme wanted the dress to look like.
Amanda: Fine then. *grabs dress and walks into bathroom*
At 9:15 they are still at home…getting ready.
Ellie: You’ve been in the bathroom for like an hour now!
Amanda: *Comes out of the bathroom* It looks…really I don’t know, not me.
Ellie: You look stunning now spin.
Amanda spins around while rolling her eyes. When she is spinning, Ellie notices something black on Amanda’s back.
Ellie: Whoa, wild child, you got a tattoo.
Amanda: It was on a whim and I need you to help me cover it up.
Ellie: With what? Band-Aids?
Amanda: No! Make-up or something. I don’t know.
Ellie: Give me your foundation.
Amanda: Why can’t we use yours?
Ellie: Because my skin tone is different from yours.
Amanda: Fine.
It took over ten minutes to cover up the tattoo. And it is now 9:30.
Ellie: OK its covered.
Amanda: OK, umm are we leaving now?
Ellie: No I still have to do my hair.
Amanda: OK take your time to tame your curls.
Ten minutes later, Ellie walks out of the bathroom.
Ellie: OK. They’ve been tamed.
Amanda: *blink* Looks the same to me.
Ellie: Oh yeah I know I tamed my hair before I helped you with your tattoo.
Amanda: Then what were you doing in there for ten minutes.
Ellie: Stalling.
Amanda: Nice…so I guess we can go now?
Ellie: Yeah, since we have to.
They arrive at the Jonas house 25 minutes later (It only takes 10 minutes to get there). They then get out and walk to the door, standing there for another 5 minutes before ringing the doorbell.
Amanda: Nice driving.
Ellie: I was afraid of drunk drivers
Amanda: The roads were clear for at least a mile radius.
Ellie: Well then I was nervous about the snow.
Amanda: Yeah, funny. I thought I saw the same old man with the walker pass us twice on the way here.
Ellie: Probably. Ring the doorbell.
Amanda: No, you.
Ellie: No.
Amanda: Fine then. *rings doorbell*
Joe answers the door.
Joe: You’re at least an hour late. Everyone’s here already.
Ellie: Yeah but we’re fashionably late.
Amanda: Yeah, what she said.
