#9. Plan for Monique

December 3, 1993

JAVON: If that's how you're going to act in front of Monique, we're going to HAVE to have a plan.
JOHNNY: Yeah, I guess you're right.

JAVON: Okay! So, I have a great plan! You know how we're in the library in English next week?
JOHNNY: Yea...

JAVON: Bobby could change the computer list to get Monique working on it first, THEN I could rig the computers so it won't work right, THEN you rush in to help her, strike up a conversation and end up looking great in front of Monique.

JOHNNY: This is a full-fledged "caper" if I've ever heard one. You've been watching Scooby-Doo reruns again, haven't you?
JAVON: Well, TBS DID have a marathon last week...
