[The camera flickers on to show Lucy sitting cross legged on the floor in her flat. She's got shopping bags scattered around her. She's sportinga glorious purple-black eye and a pretty spectacular pout]

Okay, City? Not funny. Yeah they were great shoes--are great shoes and they will look fantastic with that yellow mini dress but shopping should not be a full contact sport. At least not unless the full contact involves a dressing room and nakedness. Nudity, not punches. Got it?

[Lucy nods and sips her latte.] I was just thinking. Harry left me a lot of money but not an infinite amount.

[Jill is a patient person. So she waits to let Lucy think through what she's saying and work it all out before she nods.]

It sounds logical. So do you have an idea of what that something should be?

Yeah. It took a while to come up with something different because we've got shoe stores and clothing stores and drug stores and things like that but we don't have any bath and body works style stores. You know, lotions, perfumes, bubble bath. That sort of thing.

Oh, you gonna try making some lotions, soaps and stuff? That could be fun.

I don't think I have to make them. I think I can get them ordered in at a discount then mark them up and sell them. I'm looking into it though.

Oh. I thought the making them would be part of the fun, testing out new scents and all that. [She takes on a thoughtful expression.] I wonder who makes them then... and what they put in them. [Nope, she doesn't trust this place farther than she can throw it... which is not at all.]

Maybe. Except I don't know anything about it. I could probably help the vendor out though with the making and the smelling and the testing. [She purses her lips, considering this.] I've contacted some of the vendors who make the stuff. They're just people here, like us.

So if you've got a vendor and all, I guess you just need to find a place... like a building.

And a name. I was kind of thinking 'Coming Up Roses'. Inside everything could be pink and red and cream and rose themed.

[Jill smiles a bit at the name and nods at Lucy reassuringly. It's nice to see her friend even a little excited about something. She knows that Lucy has been through a lot here. And doing this would give her something positive to focus on.]

I like it. And it could be on all the labels with a calligraphy or a clip art type of rose beneath it. Coming Up Roses could be arched over the top of the rose.

Oooh yes. Definitely. Our signature scent could be something a little rose scented.

And branch off from there. Not everyone likes roses.

Exactly. We'll have different scents. I think it'll be fun and it should make a profit in a place like this. We've got a lot of girls.
