The Life & Times of Meadow Thayer Presents: Where in the World is Trixie Realtor?
[ONLY ABOUT 18 IMAGES. THIS IS A SPECIAL UPDATE BUT IMPORTANT TO THE STORYLINE.]
Amy & Jess: The last time we saw Trixie, she was helping Meadow find her house. Although it seemed like she disappeared, she speaks to Meadow just about every week on the phone. Have you ever wondered what Trixie Realtor spends her days doing? Well, she's here to tell you. Trixie?
Trixie: Hello! My name is Trixie Realtor. I used to be known as Trixie Reali, but when I discovered Realty as my calling, I had my name legally changed. That way, even if people look up Realtor in the personal phonebook, they'll still find someone who can help. Me! Anyway, I'm here to tell you what I do with my day.
Trixie: I'm very big on routine, so I start every day the same way. First, I have a cup of coffee. Two dashes of skim milk and a packet of Simplenda; just right. Woo, I feel invigorated!
Trixie: Next, I warm up with some yoga! I have a different tracksuit for every day of the week. Ommmmmm.... Ommmmmm... Ah, how refreshing!
Trixie: Invigorated and relaxed, I get dressed for the day. My office is in my garage, but every day I climb into my car and drive around the block, just so I can be a part of the commuting community. All of my neighbors commute! Oh, and are you wondering where I get my absolutely fabulous outfits?
Trixie: Why, I sew them myself! Its the only way I can assure absolute perfection.
Trixie: Once I get to my gara- I mean office, I sit at my desk and wait for the phone to ring. Mother always said, "Patience is a virtue!"
Trixie: Oh, a call! I'll put it on speaker phone, but you'll have to be very quiet... Trixie's Realty, this is Trixie Realtor speaking!
Customer: Hello. I'm looking for a house for my family in Pleasantview. We've just moved from Strangetown. I have a significant amount of money at my disposal, and I desire only the best you have to offer.
Trixie: Well isn't that swell! I have just the house in mind. It's at 343 Foggy Grove Bend, and I can meet you there at four this afternoon.
Customer: Perfect.
Trixie: Oh great, sir! And can I just have your name?
Customer: It's Salvatore. Salvatore Simprano. *click*
Trixie: How absolutely delightful!
Trixie: Well, it's 3:30 and I'm here to make sure the house is in tip-top shape to show Mr. Simprano. Isn't this just the most gorgeous house you ever did see? It used to belong to famous movie actor and winner of a Simmy, Mickey Ricky. The house came onto the market when Mickey unfortunately died after being crushed by a truck carrying a full load of Styrofoam shipping peanuts. Anyhow, lets take a quick look inside and make sure everything is set.
Trixie: Oh no, a tiny speck of dust, that's just not acceptable. *scrub scrub* Ah, much better. Oh, is that the doorbell? They must be early! Nothing wrong with that. As Mother always said, "To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late, and to be late is to be forgotten." And no one wants to be forgotten, do they?
Trixie: So nice to meet you, Mr. Simprano! I'm Trixie Realtor.
Salvatore: Hey, how you doin'? This is a snazzy joint you got here. I'd like you to meet the family.
Salvatore: These are my sons, the light of my life. The one with the scar is my older boy, Tony. We call him Scarface, bet you can't guess why!
Trixie: Oh, I know! Because of his scar.
Salvatore: Yeah, I guess you're a bright one, aren't ya? And this is my son Vince, we call him Twinkle Toes. Say hello to the nice lady, Vince.
Vince: Nice t' meet ya, Miss Trixie.
Trixie: Lovely to meet you, Mr. Twinkle Toes!
Salvatore: And over here is my beautiful new wife, Carmen.
Trixie: Lovely. But she isn't the mother of your boys, is she?
Salvatore: No. Unfortunately, my first wife died recently, in a very... tragic accident.
Trixie: How awful! My sincerest apologies. Shall we go inside?
Trixie: I took my time showing the Simpranos around the house. But when Salvatore's phone rang, he and the boys headed off into another room. I was about to follow when Carmen stopped me.
Carmen: Excuse me, but where would I find the bathroom?
Trixie: Oh, it's just up the stairs and to the right.
Trixie: Now, I'll just go check up on the men...
Vince: *clicks the cellphone shut* It's all taken care of, Pops. The old man is dead.
Salvatore: Perfect. Now I need you and Frankie the Beard need to go over to the house and start your surveillance. The right opportunity might arise at any mom-
Trixie: O.O
Salvatore: Miss Trixie. Now just how long have you been standing there?
Trixie: I... not long... and I definitely didn't here anything about someone being dead or someone else starting surveillance- Oops.
Salvatore: Why don't you come inside and shut the door behind you, Miss Trixie? I think we need to have a little discussion about eavesdropping.
Amy & Jess: *are scared*
Vince: Wait, Pops. We don't have to-
Salvatore: Can it, Twinkle Toes. Now Tony, why don't you help Miss Trixie here to a seat...
Phone: *ring ring* *ring ring*
Answering Machine: You've reached Trixie's Realty. I'm not here right now, so if you could please leave a message, I'll get back to you in a jiff!
Meadow: Trixie? This is Meadow. I haven't heard from you in a few days...
