Jane the Virgin (2014) s01e06 Episode Script

All right, here we go.
Jane the virgin got accidentally inseminated.
But I've never had sex! And this created a lot of problems for a lot of people.
First, there was Rafael, the sperm donor who found himself having feelings for Jane.
But he first had to deal with his scheming, cheating wife.
- We're done, Petra.
- What? But Petra wasn't going down without a fight.
- My husband did it.
- Pretty dramatic stuff.
Also dramatic Jane's father, international telenovela star, was back in her life.
I was trying to impress you, but I went too far.
I'm sorry.
- And speaking of relationships Jane's mother was interested in her father.
Very interested.
Unfortunately, she had to deal with his ex-wife Melissa.
Maybe send a letter next time.
That's what most fans do.
There are stalker laws, you know.
But Xo was winning so far.
And sadly, Jane's love life was now a mess.
She pushed off any feelings for Rafael because she was engaged to Michael.
You knew all this time.
But she just found out Michael had been lying to her for a very long time.
- Jane, please, please.
- Let go of me.
- D-don't leave.
- And that's where we left off.
Jane's 21st birthday party can be described in one word epic.
_ Yeah! Yeah! It's your party.
Take a drink.
_ Yes! Oh, there's some more people coming.
Excuse me.
Hmm.
In novelas, this is known as an encuentro significativo, or a "significant encounter.
" It's the moment when two people who are meant for each other have their first encounter.
Excuse me, Miss.
There's been a noise complaint from your neighbors.
In this case, there was one slight miscalculation.
_ You got me a stripper?! No, no, no, no.
I'm a police officer.
No, there's been a complaint.
I have a complaint.
Your clothes are still on.
Oh, I am an I'm an actual cop.
You are too hot to be a cop.
But not too hot to be a naked cop! This looks like a real gun! You're a real cop.
Mi Amor Oh.
_ Hey, wait.
Now it's snowing on the yacht.
Snow makes everything more romantic.
Well, I'm just saying, shouldn't they have coats on? I thought you weren't going to sit here and pick it apart.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
Okay, so What do you like about telenovelas? The idea that two people are destined to be together.
And so, Jane explained to Michael why a man professing his love to a woman on a yacht in the snow in front of a semi-realistic background was the epitome of romance.
So, what's the guy in the bolero jacket saying now? "From our first meeting" "I knew it was you.
" "I just knew.
" Kendall district station Uh-oh.
- That's me.
- Mm-hmm.
Thanks for not arresting me.
Thanks for asking me to stay.
That's amazing.
Like I said, it was epic.
But that was then And this is now.
You got a package.
Oh, my my dress.
What are you doing here? We need to talk.
Can I can I come in? No.
I'm not ready to talk, Michael.
Come on, Baby.
We just you know, we-we got to We got to get through this.
I want to get married.
I don't know if I want to.
Jane please.
What happened? Me not telling you that Petra cheated on Rafael it was it was awful.
I know that.
I-I am so sorry.
I know you are.
But I just keep thinking about how many times you lied to me since then.
You're overreacting.
You're, like, hormonal or something.
Be honest with me.
Okay, Michael? This is not a good time.
You know what? It never is.
And then I just start thinking about the baby and how you were gonna let me give it to this couple that had all these problems when you knew how much it meant to me for her to go to a stable family.
I'm sorry.
I just I need more time, Michael, to see if I can forgive you and get past this.
Okay.
You okay, Baby? All of a sudden, I just I I look at him differently, and I don't know if I can go back.
_ Yeah, because taking it off feels so final.
And you don't want it to be final? I don't want any of this.
Oh, my God, enough! I want to stop crying! That's what I want! What time is dinner with Rogelio? Oh, honey, let me call him.
We'll cancel.
No, no, I don't want that.
It means he's finally listening to me about toning down the over-the-top gestures.
Besides, I think it's sweet he wants us to meet his stepdaughters.
Former stepdaughters.
Hopefully, they're not as bitchy as their mom.
Xiomara Oh, no.
Oh, no.
- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- What? There has to be a big mistake.
_ They gave my student teaching placement, finally.
Really? Where'd they assign you? That's the thing.
That's where they made the mistake.
_ They put you in a Catholic school! Mom.
It's a high school.
Hello? Hi.
This is Jane Villanueva, and I'm in the teaching education program.
Hi, Miranda.
There's been a mistake.
I just got my assignment and it says that I'm teaching at a high school, but I actually specified very specifically that I would like to teach middle schoolers.
Yes, I do understand that the degree is in adolescent education, but again, I specified No, see, but, see, I feel like I can have the most impact on younger girls.
No, I-I can't wait till next semester.
This is my last requirement for graduation, and I'm pregnant.
I should have planned better? Are you serious, Miranda? Wait, no, no, no, Miranda, Miranda, Miranda, Miranda.
I'm sorry.
I should not have snapped.
Listen, here's the thing.
I had a not-so-great experience in high school.
You know, mean girls You get it, right? Okay? And but-but here's the thing: I want to use that experience to prevent younger girls, like middle schoolers, from becoming mean girls.
That's a part of what being a teacher, for me, is all about.
Okay.
Thank you.
Good-bye.
Looks like I'll be teaching at a Catholic high school.
Maybe you don't tell them you're a pregnant virgin.
The Nuns or the high schoolers? _ Thanks, Grandma.
Hello? Jane, hi.
Hello? Sorry, I'm on the bus.
I just wanted to apologize for what happened yesterday, when you You know, when you said that you wanted to raise the baby? I was kind of a jerk.
Oh, you mean when you said that you would fight me for custody? Jane, I'm sorry.
You know, I was shocked and I didn't mean it.
It's just and being a father, like, a present father, it's just really It's important to me.
And-and we'll work it out.
You know? You, me and Michael.
Yeah, thanks for saying that.
There was so much more, of course, Rafael wanted to say to Jane.
Words like "I have feelings for you" and "let's be together.
" Okay, so I'm almost home.
I I'll call you later.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, absolutely.
We'll-we'll talk later.
Bye, Jane.
But alas, the time wasn't right.
What are you doing here? These guys needed help finding your apartment.
Rafael Solano, you have the right to remain silent.
- Wait a whoa.
- Anything you say can and will be used - against you in a court of law.
- What are you talking about? - You have the right to an attorney.
- Hey, what did you do? If you can't afford an attorney, one will be provided for you.
Can someone tell me what the hell is going on? I'm sorry, Rafael.
I had to tell them what you did.
You have to breathe from deeper down, through your diaphragm.
Always the gentleman, Rogelio had agreed to help Xiomara prepare for her singing debut at the hotel.
Whoa.
I feel really dizzy.
- Oh.
You do? - Yeah, could I sit down? Oh, of course.
Of course, of course.
- Do you need anything? - No, no.
I'm fine.
Oh.
Just a little out of practice, I think.
I hope my voice can fill the lounge.
Well, you have your band.
That's what they're for.
I don't actually have a band.
I've mostly sung with backing tracks.
Do you think I need one? Yes, yes, you do.
But you're in luck, because I have recorded over seven telenovela theme songs.
Oh.
So eight.
Eight exactly.
So I have wonderful musicians I can call.
Really? You said this was a big shot for you.
Thank you.
Of course.
Xiomara, I didn't know you were here.
_ Rogelio was just helping me prepare my set.
Oh, yes.
Congratulations.
I'm really glad you're here.
I've been wanting to apologize.
I was such a bitch when we first met.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know who you were to him.
Oh.
That's okay.
Good, Melissa.
You can make it up to Xiomara by booking her a band.
My best musicians.
Absolutely.
Right away.
Uh, you should go down to the lobby.
The reporter from Telemasivo is waiting - to interview you.
- Ah, yes, yes.
Xiomara, I'll see you at dinner.
Perfect.
I really look forward to bringing our families together.
Oh, thank you for saying that.
Uh, me, too.
And I know Jane's really looking forward to meeting your daughters.
Stay away from him.
Excuse me?! Do you think I don't know your type? My type?! You didn't want a relationship with Rogelio until you realized he was famous.
I had lost track of him.
There's a word for that, honey.
Starts with "gold.
" Ends with "digging.
" Oh, yeah? Well, there's a word for you, too.
Starts with nasty.
Ends with Smile! #Awkwardfamilydinner.
That was funny, Valeria.
I'm gonna tweet that to my 6.
3 million followers.
_ To my former stepdaughters.
You will always be stepdaughters in my heart.
And I'm so happy you chose to relocate to Miami.
Mom made us 'cause she's managing your career, and you wanted to be closer to Jane.
Well, that's not entirely true.
We moved to Miami because production of my show moved here permanently.
Because you told them you wanted to be closer to Jane.
Details are not important.
_ What's important is you are here now.
And you get to meet the brilliant Jane.
My daughter.
Who tomorrow will be a teacher.
Just, like, a student teacher.
I believe teaching is one of the most noble professions in the world.
So, are you really a pregnant virgin? Well, they were asking about the circumstance, and I did not want them to get the wrong idea about you.
Or your incredible purity.
Why haven't you swiped your "V" card? Can't find someone to have sex with you? Don't let those girls get to you.
They're mean like their mom.
I kind of felt bad for them actually.
Rogelio really went overboard again.
And I just need to tell him to tone it down a little more.
Jane, this is for you.
You got me a car? Or a lot more.
What the hell is your problem? Our drug investigation turned into a double homicide.
And the latest victim named Sin Rostro one of the biggest drug lords around as his assailant, and we don't have any leads.
This is the dead bellboy's locker, right? Hey, what's this? Now we're talking.
Well, call it.
It could be one of Sin Rostro's contacts.
Nothing.
It's disconnected.
We'll run a history.
Good eye.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Which brings us here.
Now, with Jane back in high school.
And, of course, we do have a code of conduct required for all our teachers.
Of course, I understand.
You will have no conduct issues with me.
Good.
And really, how bad could a group of teenagers really be? And here's your classroom.
Oh.
Girls, Sister, please welcome your new Teacher Ms.
Villanueva.
Oh, uh, those girls in the back, I know them actually.
Valeria and Victoria? - Mm-hmm.
- They just transferred.
Apparently their father heard we had a wonderful faculty.
Oh, my God This is, this is really awkward.
But we thought this was a Catholic school.
Oh, it is.
Of course.
Then, why are we being taught by an unmarried pregnant woman? Maybe we can talk in private? It should be noted that this was the first time Jane Gloriana Villanueva had ever been called to the Principal's office.
A pregnant virgin? Due to a medical mistake.
And I absolutely should've disclosed it.
But I'm sure you can understand it's a pretty unconventional situation.
Yes.
It really is.
The problem, Ms.
Villanueva, is that what just happened will be repeated by students to their parents.
And I will explain how I took an unfortunate incident and turned it into a thoughtful choice.
That's certainly true.
I-I believe that I have a lot to offer these girls.
Just give me a chance, please.
No more drama? You have my word.
No more drama.
Victoria, Valeria, please come in.
Say hi to your slutty mom for us.
I am so not slutty! You asked me to tell you exactly what they said.
She's right.
I heard.
Yeah, yeah.
Whatever.
You got to put those girls in their place.
You want me to help? I can go after their mom.
No, stop.
No one's going after anyone.
The girls are clearly acting out because they're jealous.
I'll talk to Rogelio, and he can deal with them.
And, you, do not engage with their mom.
Be the bigger person.
That's so not her style.
It is too my style.
It was definitely not her style.
But still, Xiomara was determined to take Jane's advice.
I really appreciate you arranging the band.
I know this situation must be hard for you.
Thank you, Xiomara.
I appreciate it.
Meet the girls in your band.
And yes.
Rogelio has slept with every single one of them.
- Oh, wait, Rogelio! - Oh, Jane! I was so excited when you tweeted you wanted to meet up.
Unfortunately, I'm on my way to the set.
Maybe you could come by since you have the car? No, no, actually I can't.
I have to work.
But this won't take any time.
I wanted to talk to you about the twins.
They're in your school! Because Melissa wanted them under your influence.
- How could I argue? No? - Right.
Well, here's the thing.
Um, you know, they're a little disruptive.
- What? - Yeah, I mean, it's fine now.
But I wanted to talk to you about where it's coming from.
Oh, yes.
Yes, good.
Because I've been trying to help with their behavior, but Rogelio, clearly they're jealous, which I get.
You know, you've been going a little overboard on the attention again.
In in what way? - The car.
- Oh! Yes, well, thank you for alerting me to the problem, Jane.
I will take care of it right away.
Okay, great, great.
Thanks.
Hey! You okay? Well, not great.
Considering I spent the night in jail.
Why were you in jail?! She said you hit her? Yes, and I didn't.
She just wants leverage.
More money in the divorce settlement.
And just so you know, I would never lay a hand on her.
And I can't even believe I have to say that.
You don't.
I believe you.
I I thought my life was complicated.
What's going on with you? I have evil stepsisters suddenly Who are enrolled in the school that I'm teaching at, which is totally taking me back to high school, which was not the happiest place for me.
Wait, what happened in high school? My mom dated this popular girl's dad, and it ended badly.
And she turned everyone against me.
I can't imagine anyone intimidating you.
Well I-I, I was different in high school.
Kind of quiet and shy.
And you wouldn't have noticed me.
Of course I would've noticed you.
Anyway, uh, there's nothing like spending the night in jail.
Yeah, yeah.
Um I can't believe Michael didn't tell you about the arrest.
Well, uh, we Are actually having problems, so Oh? And there it was Yeah.
Briefly.
An opening.
Anyway I should get back to work.
Yes.
Yeah, okay.
Well, uh, - we'll-we'll talk later? - Mm-hmm.
All right.
Xiomara? Can we talk? You have to understand, when Jane looks at you, she just keeps remembering this sequence of events in her head the pregnancy, the lying.
How do I get that out of her head? I don't know.
Maybe with time? Is she still wearing her ring? Seriously, did you punch yourself? Rafael, stop.
You and I both know what happened.
No.
We don't.
But we know what's happening.
Oh, good! Then we both know the solution.
_ Fine.
Get the hell out.
I'm not going anywhere.
What's yours is mine, remember? Hey, I got a delivery.
A Roman Zazo.
Roman Zazo's dead.
No, this is Roman Zazo.
Want to sign? Here.
It's your problem now.
Excuse me.
Hi.
- Hi.
- What are you doing? Ro gave us cars because he felt bad.
What? Thanks for talking to him.
Oh Okay.
Oh, my gosh.
All right, that's right.
Why don't you guys erase that picture? No, no, come on, ser-seriously, guys.
Okay, all right.
Stop, erase that photo.
No way.
It's perfect for our web site.
What web site? You haven't seen it? Show her.
People are posting the most hilarious comments about you.
Okay, just take that down.
No! Help! - What are you doing?! - What happened? This crazy Teacher smashed my sister's tablet.
- I did not.
- Yes, she did.
The Teacher's going psycho.
I-I did not smash it.
That is not true.
Leave my sister alone! She smashed it.
That is a lie! You're a liar.
What is going on here? I'm sorry, Sister Margaret.
I-I didn't mean to raise my voice.
This is exactly the kind of drama I warned you not to bring to this school.
Girls, report to my office.
And you, Ms.
Villanueva Though not a math teacher, Jane unfortunately knew the answer to this problem.
_ This just isn't working out.
I cannot put off graduation.
I have been in school for six years while working, and this is my last requirement.
I have to finish now because I have a baby coming, and I would really like Miranda, I'm just gonna say it.
You really don't have a lot of compassion.
I can't believe this.
Okay, Jane, listen up.
I took your advice, right? With Melissa? I stayed above the fray.
And-and you were right.
I mean, it's not the band that I would have chosen, but it's working.
What's your point, ma? Now it's your turn to listen to me.
Because I know how to take down 16-year-old bitches.
Back off he clearly smiled at me.
Hey, girls.
Want to go for a swim? Yeah, definitely.
You hate getting your hair wet.
Shut up, I do not.
Come on, I'll race you.
All right, all right.
Tell her you love her already.
Oh, he's got to be kidding me.
Petra.
I can live without air and water.
But not the power.
Well, what do you want me to do, huh? If we move out of here, we're abandoning the property.
And it's all we have left.
He's frozen my accounts.
Where are you going? I have to use the commode; Lunch isn't sitting well with me.
Mother, they've turned off the water, you can't flush.
Ugh.
Hello.
Look, Ivan, I'm working on it.
I'm Rafael and I are having some problems.
I don't have access to cash Yes.
Don't worry, you'll have it by tomorrow night.
Did you get some good stuff? Oh, yeah.
My mom is right.
The secrets of these teenagers' lives are in these phones.
Ah, I should have listened to her in high school and stood up to those mean girls.
Mmm you know, if I was in high school with you, I would have set them straight.
Like I said, you wouldn't have noticed me.
Yes, I would have.
No, you wouldn't.
Okay, you're probably right, I wouldn't.
But look at what I would have been missing.
Everything okay? Mm-hmm, yeah.
Mike wants to talk.
Oh.
Um How are you, uh, you feeling about everything? I don't know.
There's just so much to consider.
And there it was again, an opening.
Yeah Including the fact that I have feelings for you.
What? Look, I know this is a horrible time, but it just in case it In case it means anything or if it changes anything.
Uh I don't understand.
You said you see me as a sister.
We talked about this.
I-I know, and I did.
But then something changed.
I've never felt this type of connection with anyone in my entire life.
A-and we're having a baby, you know? Look, Jane, this-this is crazy, I know.
But I've never been the type of guy that believes in fate or destiny.
What are the chances, huh? I mean, we kissed five years ago, and now we're-we're-we're here.
It sounds crazy, but doesn't this just all kind of feel meant to be? I know it's a lot, a-and you need to think, but I just, I had to tell you.
And so Rafael left Jane with a terrifying thought.
A thought she couldn't even say aloud.
_ You came so soon.
Must be a good sign.
Look, I meant it, Rafael.
Half my original ask, and I'll be out of your hair for good.
I don't think so.
Can we come in? Do you know Olivia? I don't think so, no.
We do know each other, Mrs.
Solano.
Olivia's one of the many women who changes our sheets and cleans our bathrooms.
In any case, Olivia saw you leaving my office the day that you claim I hit you.
And she's ready and willing to testify that you left without a scratch.
You know what the penalty is for making a false assault claim, Petra? Hmm? You could go to prison.
I don't remember seeing you there.
Apparently.
Then again, you didn't even recognize me just now.
I guess it's her word against yours.
Drop the charges, get out of my suite now.
I have to pack.
Oh.
And don't forget your boyfriend.
Hi there.
Hey, Jane.
Your web site's really taking off.
I know.
It-it actually inspired me.
Yeah, I decided to make a web site of my own.
About you two.
And I've got plenty of material.
Ooh.
Unflattering selfies, pre-nose-job shots.
And what seem to appear as some personal pictures meant for, I don't know, boyfriends? How'd you get those? Doesn't matter.
You're gonna take down that web site.
Then you're gonna go to Sister Margaret Frances and tell her what happened yesterday and get me my job back now.
Stop crying.
But mom's gonna kill us.
Look, you should have thought about that before.
Easy for you to say.
You have these amazing parents.
Our mom is horrible.
And we don't know where our dad is.
- Stop crying.
- I'm sorry, I can't.
It was one of those moments.
Stop it, Vic.
When you see someone differently.
We weren't telling the truth.
We smashed our own tablet and started yelling.
Ms.
Villanueva didn't do anything.
Excuse me? But, like you said teachers must be role models.
And the Church teaches forgiveness.
And I forgive them.
And I ask that you forgive me, as well, for all the drama because I know, I just know I can be a real asset here.
I think she can, too.
You're not off the hook, girls.
We understand.
We're sorry.
Well, there's nothing we can do about the past, so let's just move forward.
Report back to work Monday.
And so Jane the virgin left with her job intact and her heart full of forgiveness.
_ _ _ I didn't think you'd let her stay.
But I'm glad you did.
She really seems like a good girl.
She does, doesn't she? Also there's this.
Hundreds of comments.
They want to meet her.
This might help bring people to the Church.
Why the Marina? Because this is now ours for the evening.
I know it's not a yacht.
It's just a patrol boat, so we may have to pick up a couple, uh - Drunk boaters along the way - Michael, - Michael - I tried to make it snow, but those machines are ridiculously expensive.
You shouldn't have done this.
I had to.
Because when you You think about me now, you're just thinking about what happened, all the mistakes I've made And you need to stop thinking about that.
You need to remember the important stuff.
I know you, Jane.
You believe in "meant to be.
" We just have to find our way back.
Please, Jane, forgive me.
I do.
I forgive you.
But I-I I can't be with you.
I can't go back.
I'm sorry, Michael.
I don't under Uh, I don't - Something's changed.
- Nothing's changed.
I just, I can't explain it, - but something it-it is - Jane, Jane, Jane.
Jane.
This this This doesn't make sense.
I mean, what What, is it Because I lied? Of course, it wasn't just that.
There was also _ But Jane would never say that aloud.
Ever.
I'm so sorry, Michael.
I'm sorry.
Jane! How lucky.
I was waiting for you.
I hoped I'd see you drive up in your car.
Right.
Um I actually took the bus.
- I'm sorry, I can't keep the car.
- Why? Because it's completely inappropriate.
And giving the twins cars was completely inappropriate.
But you said they were jealous of yours.
Yeah, that's the point.
Nobody should have a car.
They're just big, meaningless gestures, and we talked about how you weren't going to be doing any big, meaningless gestures.
A car isn't meaningless to me, Jane.
I know this is very, very hard to believe, but up until five years ago, I was barely getting by.
I could only afford to buy myself a car when I was 35.
And then I met you, and, well You have your life set.
You're a grown-up.
Engaged, working, getting your degree Pregnant.
I missed all the big things, so I wanted to do something, as a father, so I thought A car.
You have so much going on.
That way, you won't have to spend time waiting for the bus.
So A little misguided, yes, but it wasn't meaningless.
Well, I can actually use a car now that I don't have Michael driving me around.
Oh, no, what happened? It turns out you didn't miss all the big things.
Hi, mom.
What's up? Uh, Xiomara, we must have gotten our signals crossed.
_ - What? - I thought you weren't comfortable with the girls.
You liar.
You set me up.
Jane, sometimes, you know, things happen, and afterwards we see people differently.
Yes, exactly.
Rogelio? You ex-wife told the band not to come.
It was a miscommunication.
A miscommunication? Are you serious? - I'm gonna let you handle this one.
- Uh Break a leg, mom.
Well? You two just ruined a beautiful moment between me and my daughter, so what's this about? It was a simple misunderstanding that Xiomara's blown completely And Xiomara had come between them.
It was one of those moments when you see everything differently.
How will we live in this tiny room? I don't have any cash, mother.
We're very lucky Rafael let us stay the night.
Our toilet paper.
Ivan - You are switching rooms? - No.
- What, you thought I would not find you? - No, no, no, no.
Please, keep your voice down.
I-I like I told you, I'm having some trouble with my husband.
I just need a little bit more time.
You have no more time! - Okay.
- My daughter is not getting shot tonight.
I saw it in the cards.
Oh! Now what? Bravo! Thank you all for coming tonight.
We've had a glitch, unfortunately, no band.
But hey, I haven't performed with a band before tonight So here goes.
You got this! Nadine.
It's me.
Eli isn't a person, it's a shipping company.
Sin Rostro must be expecting a big shipment of drugs.
That number that you found is not a phone number; it is the answer key.
The slip, the crate, the dock number We're we're gonna get him, Nadine.
Bravo! You were incredible.
- Thanks.
- Oh It was kind of surreal.
I was so nervous.
Well, you didn't look it.
You belonged up there.
Thank you, baby.
So we didn't even get to talk.
The twins really confessed? Yeah, they did.
Probably should have taken your advice back in high school, when I was dealing with Stephanie Kovakovich.
Or Maybe I shouldn't have dated her father to begin with.
Well, yeah, yeah, that's for sure.
Eh.
I'll leave you two alone.
Congrats, mom.
Thank you.
You were perfection.
And I must apologize for Melissa.
Xiomara, I owe her a lot and I tend to look the other way when she's possessive.
But I won't do that.
Not with you.
You're too important to me.
In a short time, you have become too important.
We can't.
You have to focus on your relationship with Jane, and I'll only get in the way.
No.
No, you won't.
I already did, when I interrupted you two earlier, right? Look, historically, my romances haven't always gone well, and that's affected Jane.
If we don't work, there could be tension, it could be awkward, and that could end up complicating her relationship with you.
I just can't risk that.
Yeah, well That makes sense.
But I wish it didn't.
Yeah, I know.
Me, too.
Hey.
Hey.
I saw you come out here.
You looked kind of upset.
Yeah.
Didn't want to ruin my mom's night, so What happened? And that's when Jane looked at Rafael and said the words she knew would change everything.
Forever.
I broke up with Michael.
Jane knew in her heart that this was absolutely the last thing she should be doing.
The absolute last thing.
