    Summary

    “I’m not doing porn. Did Paul Thomas Anderson do porn? No.”

    “He did Boogie Nights,” says Lottie. Nat snaps her fingers.

    “Exactly, Van. He did Boogie Nights.”

    “And this movie you’re making is going to be comparable in quality to Boogie Nights?” When Lottie and Natalie say nothing, Van sucks her teeth, nods, and keeps stocking. “That’s what I thought.”

    Northampton, Massachusetts, October 1999. Down on their luck Smith College seniors and best friends Nat and Lottie concoct an unorthodox plan to pay their rent, one that is sure to have no reverberating effects on their relationship.

    Summary

    Lottie narrows her eyes. “You okay?” she asks.

    “Fine, yeah, I just think God might be punishing me,” Natalie says, wiping her mouth, eyes watering as she sits up straight and looks down bitterly at the beer.

    “God doesn’t really punish people anymore,” Lottie says. “That’s old testament stuff.”

    Natalie is maybe (probably) possessed, which is really interfering with her plans to get a record deal by the end of this tour. Good thing the girl in the front row of all her shows knows a thing or two about demonology.

    Summary

    “I need you to date me.”

    Shauna almost choked on her own spit. “What?”

    “Jeff is getting married.” Jackie said by way of explanation, or rather, a lack of one.

    “Okay, and?”

    “So- he’s invited me and a plus one. And I thought - gee - wouldn’t it be funny if I showed up with the person he cheated on me with.”

    “Look, you’re obviously not over Tai, and I want to get back at Shauna…oh my gosh I have a plan!” Jackie suddenly sprang up from their shared couch.

    Nat groaned. “Oh this cannot be good,” she said as Van shook their head in solemn agreement.

    Jackie turned to them with serious eyes.

    “Van, date me.”
