{{TB|Oh, uh…hi, Joe. What a lovely surprise. I'd love to catch up about our failed marriage, but my Tinder date's supposed to show up at any moment.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon}}
{{TB|Weird. MY Tinder date's supposed to be here too. Her name is Fiona.}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Ummmm…you wouldn't happen to be "Aaron", would you?}}

{{TB|Well now that we're both here, should we just have the date?}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Only if we keep pretending you own two beach houses, "one for each day of the weekend".}}

{{Tapped Out Joe Icon}}
{{TB|See, this isn't so bad. How 'bout we get back together?}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon}}
{{TB|It would never work. We have different love languages: mine is acts of service, yours is words of affirmation.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|What do those phrases even mean? Can anyone actually explain "love languages" in a way that makes sense?}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Let me try. Love languages…is something for women to say to get guys to stop hitting on them.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Makes sense.}}

{{TB|I should write a book centered around a few vague general phrases that people can interpret however they want and apply to whatever failings they perceive in their relationships.}}

{{TB|I bet Gary Chapman has a beach house for each day of the weekend.}}

{{THT|After tapping on Joe's exclamation mark|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon}}
{{TB|So what's the latest with the Malibu Stacy dolls?}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon}}
{{TB|I'm not really involved with that line anymore, but I'm working on a new doll: Northridge Stacy. She's a five-times divorced forty-something who's been priced out of Malibu.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon}}
{{TB|I can definitely see the possibilities. Like five different wedding gowns.}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon}}
{{TB|Along with five different business suits for the alimony negotiations. And dolls of each of her seventy-five cats.}}

{{Tapped Out Joe Icon}}
{{TB|Maybe you can make a doll of Northridge Stacy's ex-husband who rekindles the romance with her.}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Ooooh, I like it! I can also make accessories like the studio apartment the ex-husband lives in with his four roommates.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|THREE roommates. And one of their mothers.}}

{{TB|Okay, fine, I get it. I have no chance with you.}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon}}
{{TB|Actually, I wouldn't say that.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|You're finally remembering what you liked about me?}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|No, my high school reunion's coming up, and I'm desperate to avoid the shame of going alone.}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|So you're asking me to go with you?!}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Technically, I'm asking "Aaron".}}
{{THT|{{Task/Optional|Make Stacy Lovell Reserve Two Rooms for Reunion Weekend|4 hours|[[Malibu Stacy Headquarters]]|char=[[Stacy Lovell]]}}<br>{{Task/Job|Make Joe Memorize Fake Biography Stacy Wrote|4 hours|[[Malibu Stacy Headquarters]] or [[Sergeant Thug's Mountaintop Command Post]]}}|colspan=2}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|So far I'd call this reunion a success! Not one of my friends has suspected I'm single. Thanks, Aaron!}}
{{Tapped Out Joe Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|No problem. I just wish I'd been told in advance I'd have to wear stilts.}}
{{Tapped Out Stacy Lovell Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Shut up and have another stuffed mushroom.}}
