Welcome Wagon - South Beach, Savage Residence

Slim and Bonni have pretty much lived in the same house in South Beach since they moved in together and got married with the exception of the occasional stay in Slim's beach house in Bay View. Now that Will is a teenager, Bonni wants to try for another child and they decided to move to one of Slim's larger places on the beach.

THE WELCOME WAGON: Amanda Alcaide; Random girl affectionately known as London Bridges; Shana Whitney...and a guest appearance or two.

WARNING: Topless person in last shot...


Bonni: *wrinkling her nose* Slim, this is our first welcome wagon in...well a very long time. I want to get this over with quickly so we can shop for some new furniture. You wait here and greet our guests; Will, you can help me get things ready.


Slim: *waiting*

Cooper: Hey man, I like the new place.


Slim: Thanks Coop! Bonni wants another kid and our other place was too small so we moved in here. It has a private beach. No offense man, but what are you doing here? I see you all the time. I was sort of hoping for a different welcome wagon.


Cooper: I'm not here in an official capacity Slim; I just want to make sure you guys were ready. I'll just say hi to B and Will and be on my way.


*tired of waiting, he heads toward the beach and finds Bonni sunbathing as the Welcome Wagon arrives led by Amanda, who doesn't bother to knock*
Slim: Baby, you ought to use a little sunblock; you're getting a bit red.

Bonni: *mumbling incoherently* Uh huh, in a minute.


Bonni: Woah, I feel a little woozy...better greet the guests.


Slim: *greets a stranger to the NB* I don't think I've seen you around the neighborhood before. Do you live around here? Work around here?

Girl: Not exactly. I sort of wander around. I'm waiting until I get a place of my own.

Shana: *gushing* You and Slim have such a wonderful, romantic relationship. What I wouldn't do for a guy like that...

Bonni: Yeah, Slim, he's a keeper. Want to do some Tai Chi?


Amanda: *who didn't bother to say hello to anyone and just made herself at home* Ooh, why do I always end up in the lame Welcome Wagons. This just is NOT fair!


Shana: *gasping* Good thing Bonni isn't looking or Slim would have some explaining to do.


Several hours later

Slim: Bonni we've got hungry guests and you have been out here for hours. And it's starting to rain baby. I think you might be suffering from heat stroke.

Bonni: Don't be silly; I'm fine. *breathing* Just a few more minutes.


Slim: Oh great, there's someone else at the door. This isn't going well, not well at all. Maybe there will be a PC crash and we'll get a do-over.

Bonni: All right baby, you go put on the pot for some pasta and I'll see who is at the door. *breathing some more*


Bonni: Well hello Nick. Is it hot out here or is it just you?

Nick: *uncomfortable* Uh, it's raining actually and as much as I would love getting to know you better I would prefer not to get on the bad side of Slim's anger so if it's all the same to you, I'll just go in the house now.


Nick: So you see, every time you move you get a Welcome Wagon. Sometimes it's a good one, and sometimes it's lame. Sort of like this one. But it's a vicious cycle. Over and over and over. Round and round.

Will: *to himself* Why did the hot blonde have to give up her seat to this dude.


Nick: *singing softly* Well I'm ready for love...ooh baby I'm ready for love...

Amanda: Seriously Daddy, enough already.


*several cocktails later*
Nick: So ladies, how about we see if Slim and Bonni have a hot tub and talk about the first thing that comes up?

Amanda: *laughs nervously*


Bonni: Dinner everyone!

Nick: Those are some spicy meatballs you got there Bonni.

Slim: You do realize I'm sitting here don't you Alcaide?


Nick: So gorgeous what's your story?

Girl: I don't have a story really. I just came with the outfit.

Slim: Do you smell something burning? B did you turn off the stove?

Amanda: Daddy...

Nick: Not now honey, I'm talking to the sexy raven-haired beauty...


Amanda: Daddy...


Amanda: Daddy!


Amanda: Fine. It's all right...I'm still smiling see? Still have that pretty smile...no problem, no problem at all.


Amanda: You're enjoying this aren't you...

Gayl: *snickering* Why yes Amanda, yes I am.

Shana: So he tells me he wants a divorce but no way is he going to drag me in front of a judge.


Shana: He's going to have to handcuff me and drag me down there. Not that he hasn't handcuffed me before...oh wait, that was the other Welcome Wagon...uh, never mind.

Bonni: Right, well I should probably clear these dishes and you all should be going. Now. That storm is getting worse and I haven't had a chance to check out the furniture in this place yet.


AN: I have never seen lightning strike inside the house before. Yes, it was lightning. No appliances were in use at the time. It came right through the roof.


Slim: Baby you better call a repairman in the morning. There must be some faulty wiring in here. The kitchen smells like something got fried.

Bonni: *WTF???sponging herself clean???* I miss our old house...nothing bad ever happened there...
