Molly

Cassidy:MOLLY SINCLAIR, EXPLAIN YOURSELF.

Josie:I wake up, check my phone, and BAM. “Hudson Wilde marries teammate’s sister in Vegas.” What is happening???

Cassidy:You MARRIED him??? Like . . . legally??

Molly:Can everyone calm down? It’s not a big deal.

Cassidy:Not a big deal??? GIRL, it’s literally a headline. I had to re-read it three times to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating.

Josie:Do we call you Mrs. Wilde now? Or do you prefer Hex Wilde?

Molly:I knew I shouldn’t have told you two about Hex.

Josie:To be fair, we loaded you with booze first.

Cassidy:Hex Wilde sounds like a supervillain. Fitting, honestly.

Molly:Stop. Both of you.

Josie:Oh, we’re just getting started.

Cassidy:Wait, wait. Tell me there was Elvis. There had to be Elvis.

Molly:I’m not answering that.

Josie:?? THAT’S A YES.

Cassidy:I am crying. Vegas weddings and Elvis?? This is iconic.

Molly:I hate you both.

Josie:No, you don’t. You’re just mad we found out through TMZ instead of you.

Cassidy:So mad. You couldn’t even send a “Hey, I married Hudson Wilde” text?

Molly:You’re acting like this was planned! It wasn’t. It just . . . happened.

Cassidy:“It just happened.” That’s your explanation? You tripped and fell into holy matrimony??

Josie:Did Hudson dare you? Tell me he dared you.

Molly:No, there was no dare!

Cassidy:So you chose this. Voluntarily.

Josie:Questionable decisions were made.

Cassidy:Extremely questionable.

Molly:Are you two done?

Josie:I’m never done. But seriously, Molls . . . are you okay? Like, for real?

Cassidy:Yeah. The media is going nuts. We’re joking, but you know we’re here if you need anything, right?
