A Mine Is a Terrible Thing to Waste
-confessional-

CO: So, last time, Anne Maria got switched to my team. I don't know her that well, which is bad. But...I wonder what would have happened if Jo switched. Anyway, Chris is gone too. I just...hope Sam will be okay.

-end confessional-

As you all enter the mess hall, who are you talking to?

A: Anne Maria – Get to know your new teammate

B: Brick – What's his plan to deal with the Maggots?

C: Dawn – Discuss team strategy with the new member

D: Dakota – Ask her why she made Anne Maria switch instead of Jo

E: Jo – Warn her about her treatment of Brick

F: Mike – Wait...where is Mike?

G: Zoey – Something's troubling her, and it seems to be Jo-related...

"Hey, Zoey.", you say as you enter the mess hall with her.

"Oh my gosh! Hi CO!", Zoey says.

"I'm soo hungry! Chef's food has got me starving for pizza rolls or something.", you say.

"I know, right? There's this gorgeous Indie theater on the other side of town, and I'm missing it so much! It's always peaceful.", she says.

"Aww, do you go with your friends?", you ask.

"N-No. I tried to take my ex-boyfriend once, but he's not interested in the same things as me.", you ask.

"What about friends? Or your parents?", you ask.

"Yeah, my parents don't like Indie theater either. And, um, I don't have any friends.", Zoey says.

"Oh, sorry. Tell me about your ex-boyfriend!", you say, trying to help her feel better.

"Um, we don't need to talk about him. He's...a bad person.", Zoey says.

"Oh my gosh. Are you okay? You seem uncomfortable lately.", you say.

"It's just...Jo. That's all.", Zoey confirms.

"What about her? Her fake tough attitude?", you ask.

"No, she just never listens to my suggestions.", Zoey replies.

"Is that so? Why don't you say them?", you ask.

"Oh, no one wants to hear from me...", Zoey says.

"Of course they do!", you ask.

"I, um, I really should get everyone's approval first...", Zoey says, almost calling Dakota.

(I need to say just the right thing to her. She really needs a confidence boost.)

A: "You're a friendly and indepedent lady. You don't need approval!"

B: "I think you should stand up for yourself and show Jo who's boss!"

C: "Your opinions have just as much value as anyone else's."

D: "Well, that's your decision. Good luck with that."
