That afternoon, Robin gets a phone call.

[hold_infinity]

Robin answers the phone!

"Hi!"

[pandion]

"Hi! It's Andi. I wanted to know if you want to go to see Freaky Friday with me? It's still out in a couple theaters."

[hold_infinity]

"Yeah, all right," says Robin. "Why not."

[pandion]

"Cool, should I ask my mom for a ride or what?"

[hold_infinity]

"Probably," she says, "'cause I know what mine would say and it's not 'yes, dear'."

[pandion]

"Oh, that sucks. Yeah, mine'll take us as long as it's not when she's working, which isn't a big deal since she teaches school. How's tomorrow afternoon for you?"

[hold_infinity]

"Tomorrow afternoon sounds just fine!"

[pandion]

"Okay, how about you walk home with me and Bella and when Mom shows up she'll take us? There's a four o'clock."

[hold_infinity]

"Perfect," says Robin.

[pandion]

"Great, I always meet Bella out front of the school when the bell rings."

[hold_infinity]

"I'll be there," she promises.

[pandion]

"Cool! See you there. Bye!"

[hold_infinity]

"Bye!"

The next day after school, Robin shows up out front.

[pandion]

So do twins!

"Hi, Robin!" waves Andi.

[hold_infinity]

"Hi, Andi! Hi, Bella!"

"Rumor has it you're coming home with us and then going off to see some disturbing body-switching movie."

[hold_infinity]

"That's an unusually accurate rumour," laughs Robin.

[instar]

"Well, it didn't go through many iterations of distortion before I heard it."

[pandion]

"When I asked Mom for a ride she made me check with Bella to make sure she didn't want to come too, but Bella thinks the premise is creepy."

[hold_infinity]

"Well, yeah," says Robin.

[instar]

"I mean, of all the - do you care about spoilers? This one is technically a remake, I've heard stuff about the previous version. Not to mention there's a book."

[hold_infinity]

"Nah, go ahead," says Robin.

[instar]

"Of all the ways to heal a strained family relationship, nonconsensually body-switching them has got to be the most deranged. Can you think of anyone in your life who you would get along with better after being dropped into their life and watching them make a hash of yours?"

[hold_infinity]

"No," she snorts.
