The Paperboat Daily reports:

When interviewing the bystanders of the slushie incident that happened in the girls locker room yesterday afternoon, plus a random boy hanging around outside during after hours, the unanimous conclusion was that 

Mackenzie Benson had it coming.

Mackenzie: He just hooked up with you because you were there, it could have happened with any one of us. Let’s be real.

Coraleye: That’s not true, You don’t know what you’re talking about, Mackenzie.

Sam: [Grinning] Audrey, just tell her, already...

Audrey: Sam and I read the text when you weren’t looking, Cor, he says he really misses you and he’s  sorry for the pain he caused you.

Coraleye: What? You read my texts?! Audrey!  Audrey: Yeah. You’re welcome.

Mackenzie: Ugh. Whatever. It was probably just a joke.

Lark has developed quite an infatuation with another student at Brindleton High. Looks like Coraleye is old news now.

Chelsie Puckers: Hey Lark! I noticed your painting looks a little familiar! Is that supposed to be me?

Lark: Pffft. That painting! Nooo...

Lark: I mean it might have been a little inspired by you... I

Lark: It’s creepy, I know. I’m sorry.

Chelsie: ... On the contrary! I actually find it quite flattering.

Lark: Oh???

Chelsie: And kinda romantic, actually.

Look who got a job as Brindleton High’s new lunch lady 😄

Duane: ...I loved her with all my heart. Her smile could light up the whole island. Her eyes were so meaningful and deep. Her heart was good. She was tough, and she had a deep bellow of a laugh that was like medicine. Losing her was like not having a place to call home. 

No one knows exactly what happened to her, but they said she drowned one night while going for a swim.

When she died, it rained on the island for days, it felt like weeks.

Coraleye: She sounds... amazing, Duane.

Duane: She was. She was perfect.

Starling: Hey! Mira right?

Mira: Hi! Yes, that’s my name.

Starling: I just wanted to say, I can’t believe I’ve never noticed how stunning you are!

Mira: [blushes] Oh! I don’t know about that. This isn’t how I usually look.

Starling: You’ve always been adorable, but tonight...WOW. Wanna get a cream soda?

Mira: Uhh... [glances at phone] I guess it couldn’t hurt.

[mosneakers]

Mackenzie: I gotta admit it girls, we’ve outdone ourselves... This will RUIN her.

Logan: [breath trembling] M-Mackenzie, I know Coraleye is hashtag the worst, but do you think this may be a little TOO mean?

Briella: ...Yeah, is this [clears throat] ...crossing a line?

[mosneakers]

Coraleye: Hi Duane! Yeah, I’m just getting off school now, I’ll call you when I get home [speaks louder] ... LOVE YOU TOO! 

Was Coraleye waving her reunited relationship with Duane in the faces of the mean girls purely out of spite? Maybe. But the look on Mackenzie’s face is almost as sweet as Duane’s “I love you babe” ...Almost.
