Plot: Karen is greeted by a surprise visitor.
Disclaimer: I do not own Will, Grace, Jack, Karen or Rosario but hey it would be way cool if I did. They all belong to the gods of NBC AND ALL THOSE OTHER PEOPLE. Okay so don't bother asking me if you can borrow them because I am not at liberty and if I was at liberty I would not be the kid on the playground that shares.
The following contains all the main characters and a few of my own and NBC is at liberty to use my characters them if they ask nicely.


The show open is Grace Adler Designs.

Grace walks in and she notices a person located in Karen's chair. However, it couldn't be Karen because it is only 10:00am and Karen would never be in this early.

GRACE: Um.....Hello?

The young women in the chair looks up at Grace and smiles, and then continues to read the magazine that she was reading.

Grace: Hi I'm Grace Adler. Um.. do I know you?

Young Women: No

Grace: Are you here to see me?

YW: NO

Grace: Can I help you?

YW: Well maybe you can. You said you were Grace right?

Grace: Yes

YW: I'm Laura Delaney and I'm looking for Karen Walker.

Grace: Who isn't?

Laura: Um well in that case is there anyway I could leave her a message?

Grace: Sure.Okay here's a pad of paper(gets a pad of paper and a pen) and a pen.

Laura: Um... she doesn't read! So you will just have to remember it.

Grace: Um.. all right?

Just then Jack and Karen walk in and the are talking about what they just bought.

Grace: Hey Karen, there is some one to see you.

Karen: Where?

Grace: In front of you.

Karen: Oh! Who are you?

Laura: Hello Karen.

Karen: Jeeze Louise,honey!! What are YOU doing here?

Laura: Well you see Dad kind of kicked me out of the house after he got married and well I have nowhere to live.

Karen: And?... Really honey get to the point. (laughs and looks at Jack)

Grace: I think she just did Karen and anyway who is this Karen?

(Karen mumbles something.)

Grace: What? I couldn't hear you.

Karen: Okay she's my kid alright are you happy?(GASPS FROM JACK AND GRACE) I haven't seen her in a while-

Laura: Six years.

Jack: WAIT A MINUTE, YOU HAVE A KID? And you were never going to tell me that I was the father?

Karen: You idiot, you're not the father!

Jack: That's what you say but I want a DNA test done.

Grace: Well Jack if you throw a chair this could be Jerry Springer. Anyway, I think the problem is that Laura needs a place to live.

Karen: And what am I suppose to do, honey?

Grace: Well you do live in a penthouse I'm sure you have room?

Karen: No we don't. And anyway we have a small problem

(Mumbles something again)

Grace and Laura: What?

Karen: Stan doesn't know about her. That's a BIG problem for me because UM...I need his money. Okay this subject is upsetting me so um.. Jackie lets go buy makeup while I still have Stan's money.

Fades to Opening Credits as Jack and Karen walk out the door.

Cut to Will's office. Will is at his desk.

Karen walks in the door with bag in hand from shopping.

Will: What are you doing here Karen? I'm not your lawyer anymore.

Karen: Um, yeah, I have a big problem and um you do this legal stuff and well.... just help me damn it!! Stan will pay you!

Will: Well Karen I don't know if I can what is the problem?

Karen: (says this really fast) Okay my daughter from my last marriage was kicked out of my ex-husbands house and um she wants to stay with me and I never told Stan about her.

Will: And what do you want me to do? Help her?

Karen: Hell NO!!! I pay you to help ME Willma and I want you to send her back.

Will: Karen?!!! I really don't think that's what you should do I mean this is your daughter. And when did you have a daughter Karen nothing personal..never mind it is personal. You hate kids!! How could you have one?

Karen: Shut up! I don't pay you for this!

Will: No you pay extra for this!

Karen: Will, just help me, how do I get rid of her?

Will: Karen she is asking for help I don't think you can just ask how to get rid of her.

Karen: Then she'll leave on her own?

Will: Cruela, this is your daughter and for whatever reason you didn't tell Stan that's your problem and he is going to have to know.

Karen: Damn you all! Why can't I just get rid of her? Okay maybe I can pass her off as Rosario's kid and I won't have to worry about her then.

Will: Karen you can't tell me you don't care about this girl?

Karen: Oh yes I can!! If I lose money over this then I don't care.

Will: Then I can't help you Karen.

Karen: Evil!!! (Shakes her bags at him at stomps out) Screams: Stan's not paying you for this!!!!

Fades on Will.

Comes back up on Jack, Rosario, Laura and Karen.

They are all in Karen's closet talking.

Karen is getting together her things.

Rosario is standing behind her holding what she hands her.

Jack is sitting on a lounge chair drinking something.

Laura is standing next to Karen on the opposite side that Rosario is on.

Jack: Hey, ex-wife get me another lemonata with that special twist you put in it. Por Favor.

Rosario: You mean Jack Daniel's?

Karen: Jack shut-up I'm having a crisis. Stan is going to throwing me out and I have to find the right clothes to take. OH it's not fair all of this stuff is so important to me. Look at this pair Jackie O. Oh gosh I love them.

Laura: Karen, you haven't even told Stan.

Karen: This coming from the kid who is ruining my life. And you know the rules don't call me Karen you know what I told you.

Laura: Mommy Dearest-

Karen: Yes that's right. It has a wonderful ring to it, doesn't it?

Laura: You stole that form Joan Crawford!!

Jack: I think I'll bring men's shoulder pads into style. They always looked good on Joan and well lets face it she was just a man in drag.(laughs)

(They all look at Jack and then turn around and ignore what he said )

Laura: Why are we in here?

Karen: Okay one, honey, I'm packing. And two Stan doesn't know about this closet and if he did we would just move it like Rosie did last time. Right Rosie? Oh.. my Rosie I'm gonna miss you. You'll have to let the kids down gently about my leaving.

Rosario: Oh, Ms. Karen they already met Ms. Laura and they are planning you going away party.

Karen: Oh that's so nice of them!

Rosario: You're not invited!

Karen: Brats!!!!

Laura: I was invited.

Karen: Figures. They're happy you got me booted.

Laura: Your not booted yet you have to tell Stan first but it is a good thing you packed first.

Karen: Fine I'll go now!!

Rosario: She's not going to last five minutes.

JACK: NOOOO she's not!!!

FADE TO BLACK

Opens on the Walker living room.

Everyone is there (except Karen) including Will and Grace now. They are all sitting and waiting.

Grace: So how long has she been in there?

Jack: Three hours.

Rosario: (angry) She lasted a lot longer then I expected.

Jack: Yeah you lost the bet.(waves money)

Will: Wanna bet how much longer it will be?

(All get out money and place it on the table.)

Grace: So, Laura, what was Karen like before she married Stan?

Laura: The same except with less money but she still spent all my dad's money the same way.

Will: How long were they married?

Laura: Three days I think.

Grace: What?

Laura: Well you see Karen worked in Vegas-

Will: Worked? Are you talking about Karen? She acts like she never worked a day in her life?

Laura: I use that term loosely she um... well she was a chorus girl in some show.

Jack: She told me it was in Atlantic City? And that she wasn't a chorus girl that she owned the place but she got board and sold it.

Laura: No she worked at one in Atlantic City too. And no she didn't own it, she was just the owner's mistress. That's how she met Stan.

Grace: Then how does Stan not know about you?

Laura: She told him I was her little sister

Jack: He bought that?

Laura: Of course she was getting money and he was getting well.... I never want to think about that.

Will: So how were Karen and your father only married for three days?

Laura: Oh Karen was my dads mistress and when he was married to his 3rd wife at the time she got pregnant and he never bother to divorce his wife and stayed married. Until I was five I had to call him Mr.. Lowell. Then he got a divorce married Karen couldn't stand her and they got it annulled after three days. I went with my mom and kept her maiden name.

Jack: So how did you end up living with your dad?

Laura: Oh when my mom married Stan she sent me packing to Dads and I haven't seen her since. But my Dad kicked me out, or rather his new wife, Bambi, did and I had no where else to go because, well, my grandmother hates my mom so you know I am not welcome either.

Will: Well will help you and Karen if Stan does kick you both out.

Rosario: I know Mr. Stan and his last wife was dropped when he found out she was shopping in Paris with her boyfriend so I really don't think Ms. Karen has a prayer with something like this.

(Karen walks out into the living room.)

Jack: I won the bet I said within the hour. (Grabs the money on the coffee table)

Will: No you didn't!

Karen: Shut up!

Grace: Are you okay Karen? Do you need a place to stay?

Karen: No!! Stan didn't kick me out!

Rosario: Damn I owe you ten dollars. (to Laura)

Karen: No Stan didn't care he just cut back my spending because he said he was upset I lied to him.

Laura: Sorry!

Karen: Yeah you should be!!

Laura: Well I'll just go to grandma's house and stay.

Karen: Oh no you're not!!! That women is evil and she'll call me and want to talk to me about your father being the jerk he is.

Laura: So where am I staying?

Karen: (reluctantly) Here, I guess.

Grace: Damn, I lost that bet too.

Laura: But what about Stan?

Karen: He said it would be fine and he was happy that he could sue your father for negligence.

Laura: Thank you!

Laura moves toward her and Karen begins to hug her reluctantly but then she just goes all out and hugs her normally and starts to crush her.

Laura: Okay, Mom, that hurts you can let go now.

Karen brakes away really fast.

Karen: What are you talking about, honey? What is everyone looking at? Rosario go put Laura's bags in the blue room. Jack: (whining) That's my room. It brings out my eyes. Grace and Will: Shut up Jack!
