Young Adult Revisited

Nancy and Carson are just chilling at home and sitting down to eat when the phone rings. It's Senator Marilyn Kilpatrick with some big news for Nancy. Apparently, they worked together on a previous case with a tennis player who looked like Nancy's twin. The senator asks her to come to Washington DC as soon as possible and throws around terms like “life and death” and “a matter of utmost importance,” so Nancy thinks she needs to go.

Through him, she met Cynthia, the cheerleader girlfriend of the quarterback, Rob. Rob gets sacked pretty hard during the game but gets back up, plays, and scores the winning touchdown.

Nancy pretends to be his sister and gets the nurse to reveal that he has a liver problem. She tries to con the doctor, but he refuses to tell her anything except that her “brother” really needs to take a break. An
