*After the show was done the girls went back to their dressing room and Kim went back to the cupboard to look through her books.*
Theresa: *picking up a newspaper someone left in their room* Oh my gosh!!! *she screamed*
Angie: What?
Theresa: Look, it's our boys on the front page!
Angie: *taking the paper from her as all three gathered round* It says they've been arrested for racketeering.
Theresa: That's mob stuff isn't it? *she said her eyes growing wide*
Kim: Yes it is. Oh my gosh I set us up with mobsters?!
Angie: Okay I think we can agree Kim is no longer allowed to find us dates.
*Angie and Theresa laugh but Kim knocks them back into reality*.
Kim: Hey this is serious. What are we gonna do?
Theresa: Well we're not gonna see them anymore that's for sure. Besides they're in jail at least for now.
Angie: Yeah but I'm sure they'll post bail and what if they come looking for us?
*Later on back at their apartment they hear a knock at the door. Kim looked through the peephole to see Chris standing there.*
Kim: Hi Chris. *she said trying not to show how nervous she was*
Chris: Hi doll. I guess you've seen the papers huh?
Kim: Yes I did.
Chris: Well don't worry, we'll beat this wrap. We've done it before. I gotta get going now because me and the boys have something we need to take care of but will I see ya later?
Kim: I don't know.
Chris: Look dollface, you can't just brush me off like that. You're my girl and don't forget it. *He said coldly staring into her eyes.*
Kim: Okay, I'll see you later then. *she said as her heart beat a hundred miles an hour*
*He kissed her hand and then she closed the door. Angie and Theresa had been listening from the kitchen and they came out once he was gone.*
Angie: We've got to get out of here.
Kim: Where are we gonna go?
Angie: I don't know. We'll go to the bus station and just go as far away as we can. Now come on let's get packed.

The girls get into a taxi and head on down to the nearest train station. Along the way, they discuss what their next plan will be.
"Sure, we can move to another city -- another state, even; but they'll find us. Men like that don't just ignore the fact that they let 3 strange women into their hide-out then not find it somewhat odd that those girls suddenly disappeared and moved to another state." Kim explains, angry at herself for falling for a guy in the mob and scared that her sisters may be in jeopardy because she wasn't using her brain. "Kim's right." Theresa agrees. "What are we going to do?" "We'll have to think of something soon; we just pulled into the train station." Angie replies. The girls get out of the taxi and slowly walk up to the ticket booth, their minds racing 100 MPH with ideas about what they're going to do. "I have an idea!" Kim shouts, stopping dead in her tracks. Angie and Theresa stop and look to her, waiting to hear her idea. "We've always wanted to entertain the troops abroad, haven't we?" Kim explains. "Hey, that's an idea!" Theresa shrieks with delight. "Yeah, but they'll find us. We'd have to change our names if we're gonna get away with it." Angie scoffs, continuing to walk off. Kim and Theresa look to each other, wide-eyed. "That's it!" Theresa giggles. Angie stops and shakes her head. "What's 'it'?" "We'll change our names!" Theresa replies. "I wasn't seri--" "You may not have been serious, Angie; but it's a great idea nonetheless." Kim replies, laughing. Angie shrugs and laughs, "All right, so where are we headed first?"

theresa: well we could go to Burlington(thanks to google heehee)
kim: oh yes toronto!! we havent been there in years
angie: okay thats settled, now what are we to change our names to? and it better be a pretty name too!
theresa: oh i dont know, i never really thought about it.
kim and theresa pace the room trying to pick a name while angie stays sitting on the chair with her leg comfortably tucked underneath her other leg, filling her nails half an hour passes after they have each shouted at least a dozen names out loud to each other, butturning them down.
kim:*gasps* i got it!
angie and theresa: what?!!
kim: wyler?
angie: thats too manly, think of something more feminine*theresa blushes at her saying that*
kim:*looking to theresa, noticing her red cheeks* how about Rose?
theresa: kim!
kim:what?
angie: i think it is a wonderful name!*getting off her chair to stand up and put her hand on kim's shoulder*
theresa:okay....it sounds great to me!
angie: oh i cant wait to see all those soldiers!
theresa: angie!
angie:we are going to sing in a canteen arent we?
theresa:yes, bu--
angie: but, nothing, there are going to be lots of military persons there and i simply cant wait.
kim:me either!
theresa:i have to say that i cant wait either*she giggles* so when are we leaving?
they all engage in laughter and then join for a group hug.
kim: but we have to promise that no matter what happens, we will always be there for one another okay
angie and theresa:*looking to each other* we promise!
theresa: but what if they really do come looking for us?
kim: well, then we will just look out for each other then.
angie:they better hadnt dare come looking for us!

*The girls arrive in Toronto and find a nice bed and breakfast to stay in. They get checked in and then get all dolled up and head down to the canteen to try and get a job there entertaining the soldiers. Even though it's peace time, there are multiple bases for the Navy, Marines, and Army all in the Toronto area.* Angie: Now just let me do all the talking girls. *she says as they strut into the canteen and find the manager's office.* Angie: Hello are you in charge of hiring acts here? *she said sweetly to the man behind the desk.* Man: Yes, I'm Mr. Holliday. And you are? Angie: We're the Rose sisters. I'm Angie and these are my sisters Kim and Theresa. *They all exchange handshakes and pleasantries.* Mr. Holliday: So I take it you're looking for a job. Angie: Yes sir. We have lots of experience in nite clubs but we thought it would be a nice change to come and sing for the soldiers. Mr. Holliday: *looking them up and down and walking around them* Well I don't know how you sound but you look the part. I mean I hate to sound like a chauvanist but we do like to hire attractive women to keep troops entertained. Angie: Thank you sir. If you like we could audition for you. Mr. Holliday: Okay. *The girls sang a song and did one of their dance routines.* Mr. Holliday: I think you girls will work just fine. It'll be a novelty too you being sisters. Can you start tonight? Angie: Oh yes sir. Thank you! Mr. Holliday: Okay be here at 7pm. *When they got outside onto the street they all jumped up and down and laughed because they were thrilled to be starting a fun new life in an exciting city. Later that night as they were on stage singing, Angie noticed a handsome soldier sitting in the audience. He was beautiful but looked sort of melancholy and wasn't really paying attention to the show. During one of the numbers when they split up and walk through the crowd, she went over to his table and stood next to him singing her part. He seemed to be embarassed by the attention but he smiled politely anyway.* [img src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t163/coopsgirl_30/wings-1.jpg" src=" Theresa: *back in their dressing room* That was sure a cute soldier you were singing too. Angie: Oh I know. Did you see his eyes? They were the most beautiful blue I've ever seen. Kim: They are all so cute I don't know how we'll get through the shows without forgetting the lyrics. *she said giggling*. Angie: You're right about that! *Meanwhile a group of soldiers walk back to the base and they tease one young soldier about the attention he got during the show.* Peter: Oh come on Tom, she liked you. You should go back and ask her for a date. Tom: I'm sure that was just part of the show. *he said walking on looking at the ground.* Robert: I don't get you Tom. Women flirt with you and you just ignore it. Tom: I know. I'm just not interested I guess. They seem so flighty. Peter: Well you can't go on alone forever. Tom: You're gonna keep harping on this until I ask her out aren't ya? Peter & Robert: YES! Tom: Well maybe I will but I'm not making any promises.

Kim raises a brow and smiles to Angie teasingly. "Do you think you may start 'seeing' this soldier, Angie? He's quite handsome and I'm sure he's just loaded..." Theresa and Kim giggle to each other as Angie shakes her head. "Don't be so mean, Kim; you know money isn't all I care about." "You're right, Angie; I'm sorry." Kim says lowly. She begins to peak a smile, "He's gotta be drop dead gorgeous, too!" Kim bursts out laughing. Angie gives Kim a scowl, then looks at Theresa who's laughing as well. The laughing and giggling is contagious and soon Angie's cackling right along side them. "He sure is handsome, I'll give you that much. Maybe I will go out and see him." Angie says, beginning to regain her composure. "If you don't I will." Kim teases. Angie laughs and throws on her coat. "All right, I'll be back in just a little bit. Don't go anywhere without me -- just in case this doesn't work out." Kim and Theresa nod as Angie heads out of the hall and walks over toward the bases. Not sure which base might be 'his', she wanders around, smiling at all the other handsome soldiers as well. But the only thing that takes her mind off of them is the image of those gorgeous blue eyes she saw from the stage.

*As Angie walked down the street distracted by the thought of the handsome soldier she didn't realize she was gaining on a group of men just in front of her until she bumped into one of them. It knocked her to the ground and the men turned around to see her sitting on the sidewalk.*
Tom: Oh here let me help you.
*As he helped her up they both recognized each other from the canteen. The other men realized who she was as well as politely excused themselves and headed back to the base.*
Tom: I really enjoyed your show. *He said somewhat nervously wondering if she had followed him or if it was just a chance meeting.*
Angie: Thanks. You didn't seem to be having fun. You weren't even really paying attention.
Tom: Oh, well to tell you the truth I didn't want to go but the fellas dragged me to it.
Angie: Would it be too much trouble to ask for your name?
Tom: It's Tom, Cadet Thomas Thorn actually.
Angie: It's nice to meet you Tom. I'm Angie Rose.
Tom: You know you shouldn't be out this late by yourself. Let me walk you back to the canteen.
Angie: Wouldn't you like to go get something coffee or something?
Tom: I better not miss. I have to be back at the base by curfew.
Tom: Well here we are. *He said as they reached the canteen.*
Angie: Thanks!
Tom: Your welcome.
Angie: Will you come to some more of our shows? *she said flirtatiously*
Tom: Maybe. *he said shyly and looking at the ground.*
*Angie smiled and went inside to find her sisters waiting for her.*
Theresa: How'd it go?
Angie: Oh, he's sweet but so shy. He might come to some of our shows but I'm not sure.
Kim: This came for you. *She said giving her the corsage.* Do you think it's from him?
Angie: I don't know. If it was it seems like he would have said something about it.

"Sounds like a secret admirer to me." Kim replies, raising a brow. "Yeah, but who? We haven't been here for more than a day and already someone is playing a trick on me." "It may not be a trick, Angie. Maybe someone really does like you." Theresa says. "Do you really think it could be from Tom?" Angie asks, looking over the corsage, still unsure. "Who else would it be? I know we're all thinking it could be from John, but that isn't very likely. They couldn't possibly have found us this soon." Kim says, trying to assure the girls that it's nothing to worry about. "I'm sure it's Tom." Angie says. "He's such a sweetie; and so shy." That night as the girls snuggle into their warm beds, Angie hears some sharp tapping on her bedroom window. Kim and Theresa are sound asleep so she decides to walk to the window and open it up to see who's down there. "Tom?" Angie says, squinting her eyes. I seriously can't think of anything; I need ideas!

they arrive at their apartment ten minutes later and glenn sets up with his trombone as angie is totally focused on tom and kim is setting out drinks for everyone.
marine: sing something angie!!
angie: okay, ready glenn?
glenn: yup!
the trombone takes off and angie follows with singing as the boys pick her up and sit her on the baby grand piano next to glenn
after she sings "chattanooga choo choo", she walks over to tom as glenn talks playing "string of pearls"
angie: care to dance?
tom: surely
as they get up william sees them and walks over hoping to steal her away from tom
meanwhile kim is totally fascinated with all the men around her as they ask her to sing something, while angie is busy at the moment.
william:may i cut in?
angie smiles and begins to lean toward him
tom: wait a minute sailor, she was dancing with me
william:thats right, and now she is gonna dance with me
angie: just a minute sailor, i dance the next one with you
william: okay
he walks to the kitchen as he was told there was help needed there.
theresa is sitting down making ham and cheese sandwhiches for the boys as he walks in.
william: i was told there was help needed in here*not sounding to excited about it*
theresa looks up astouned by his handsome looks and how tall he was, and smiles.
theresa:uh-huh, you can help with these sandwhiches
william pops himself down on the chair next to her not to happy about it.
theresa i blushing heavily while spreading the mustard
theresa: so what would your name be?
he doesnt hear her, being to busy thinking of angie
theresa: do you have a name?
william: im sorry what did you say?
theresa: i asked you what your name is
william: oh i am william, and you are theresa im guessing
