"Yeah... It's gonna be fun... right?" She remains secretive about her hopes for the night, blushing and shy in front of her sister and Sam.

"It's going to be great. They won't know what hit 'em."

"Woo! Yeah! Let's go! Party, fun, joy!" Sarcasm abounds from the darker twin.

"Don't listen to her, Phil," although she's more in agreement with Orya on this one and they both know it, "We'll make sure this is a night they'll never forget. Speaking of, why don't we set up some activities? Ideally they won't show up drunk and we can all do something fun together."

"What, like spin the bottle?"

"Okay Debbie Downer, weird not in 8th grade. Maybe... Never Have I Ever or, um, I think there's a table tennis thing in the attic we could send the boys up for. Josh would go ape for beer pong."

She looks to the two other girls for instruction, it's her first party, and all she really knows is what she's seen in tv shows and movies.

"Beer pong will be a hit. 'Never Have I Ever' can be a little risky with new people, though. We can try to set up a dance floor downstairs."

They need to make sure this goes well for Philomena's sake. Sam tries to communicate this to Orya, silently.

Orya is already on board, she just can't let her sister know that, she has a penchant for hating when Oz babies her, so she'll have to play uninterested for now.

"She's right, that kind of game isn't really fun when you're playing with Josh, there's very little he hasn't done. He'd make a pornstar look boring."

"Oh..." She thinks for a moment, and what they've said seems to make sense. 

"I think Jeremy brought his sound system, and there are some lights and smoke machines downstairs if we wanna get, like, crazy."

"We want to get crazy. Should we unpack the snacks? I got your favorite."

There aren't any extra treats in there, something which she's sure will change if Josh gets near the food. That's not happening. Babysitting Josh isn't her favorite part of being friends with Orya, but it's an important duty nonetheless.

"Yes please! Josh brought chips, chips, and more chips. Plus hash brownies. I've been so hungry."

"That totally tracks for him."

Food! It's mostly standard party fare, but since they're going to be here overnight, they have dinner, too. That goes in the fridge. She does not engage with the boys.

Josh tries to engage with her! He's not in quite the right headspace for it.

He's much less interested in the others now that he's suitably high, but he is a thousand percent more pleasant to be around.

She is, oddly, amused by the two, much more tolerant of them when they're high, though she has to keep fighting them off of the food they keep trying to steal.

At first, Phil is a little afraid of the boys continuing their teasing from earlier, but once it's evident they've moved on, she enjoys their company freely. She also joins in on fighting the boys off the food.

In the midst of their casual unpacking, a frantic knock sounds at the front door.

"I'll get it..."

Josh stumbles to his feet. He attempts to stumble to the door, but hands on the couch instead, giggling

"We forgot the costumes, Jermy..."

Sam gets the door.

"Hey, welcome to Casa Washington. Ignore the stoners in the corner."

"Hey Sam! Mena!" She makes an immediate beeline for her friend. "Sorry I'm early, you know how I get with deadlines."

"Spence! It's okay, I'm glad you're here, you can save me from the company of my brother."

"Mena! I vanna suck your blood- J.J., save me from myself. Why aren't you a monster? Monsters are good."

"Why don't we have some snacks and get some music going?"

"Monsters are good my dude, I guess we forgot to tell everybody else. But look, a wild Spencer has appeared!"
