Because it was Gail and Colette who were in charge of this little investigation they knew to look for her purse, that would tell them whether Stephanie left of her own volition or if someone pushed her out.
They looked, and....it wasn't there. At this point Colette used her goddess-like intuition and she knew immediately who was the culprit, and because Gail and Stephanie shared a brain she knew too. It was...FAT CHARLIE!
Stephanie's evil Stepfaher. He had clearly kidnapped Stephanie in a hope to foil the posse, live out his revenge for Stephanie, and get at the money in her purse.
Gail and Colette herded up the rest of the posse and they took them all to the basement, Charlie's lair. There they found piles of trash and hidden among the debris was a pretty, pink recliner. They recognized it as Fat Charlie's from the drool stains, the sweat stains on the arms, and the empty chips bags shoved in the cushions. And behind the chair, tied and gagged was Stephanie. But the Posse knew not to rush in. They looked for a set-up. But Vivian being as loud as possible runs in and before she could even get to the recliner, her loud yelling and weird sounds woke the monster in Charlie's belly. He was on her like a pint of ice cream and before she got half way there he ate her. Now we know where she is.
Stein knew how to work out this problem. He called Trixie, the super dog and he told her how this would be her greatest mission.
He tied some Snausages to her back and sent her in Fat Charlie's direction. She ran by, and Charlie though she was a moving sausage. Trixie ran with all her might out the basement door, and when Fat Charlie left Andrea and Marissa threw a very mighty net over him and captured him. The day was saved and although he did end up using all the money in Stephanie's purse for more Pringles she was not harmed. The posse's last mission was their greatest. And luckily the girls still had that exotic dancing gig going for them, so the money wasn't that big of a deal.

Let's start this adventure again.
I like the pink page, the first one, can I go back there?
