[Action ✍ Library; Late Afternoon]
[ After work, Raleigh is in the library and is surprised to see... that most of the books she finds are all informative. No fantasy, no mystery. Only educational books on cooking and cleaning.  There has to be something else here, right?

Now Raleigh is trolling the library, combing every aisle.  Every once in a while she'll take a book out so as to appear inconspicuous.  Of course, then she feels self-conscious about taking it out in the first place, so instead of putting it back she takes it with her. 

Yep, just a normal housewife, slowly circling the library with a ... a tower of books.  Yep.  Nothing wrong here.  ]


[Phone ✍ Evening]
... So. Um.

Heh, so this is going to sound pretty odd but is there any other place clothes? I-It's not that these clothes suck, I'm pretty appreciative that I have them but... well, I don't like them either. They make me feel old. It's like this real weird feeling of deja-vu, and I don't like it. So, like, does anyone know if I can get anything different? The shops in town aren't doing it for me. Like, I'll go for anything really. I'm not picky, not under these circumstances at least.

... well.  Just anything other than pencil skirts. I hate them.

[Action ✍ Park; Past Midnight]
[ Raleigh can't sleep.  No one really gets used to nightmares.  So Raleigh, despite her better judgement, decides to take a walk through the park.  The park is dark at this time, but there's enough light for her to make her way.  Once in awhile, Raleigh will stop to look up at the sky.  If there was one thing she liked about this place, it was the sky at night.  It was so clear. ]

Sorry, but I'm afraid you won't be able to find anything else in town. You will get your own clothes back in the mail eventually. I did, at least. Until then you're pretty much stuck with what you've got, unless you can find a seamstress or tailor who's willing to make you something special, or someone who's willing to loan you some of the clothes they've gotten back.

[Nina sounds sympathetic.] I wish there was something else I could tell you.

I wouldn't go to the Post Office just for clothes. It wouldn't be worth it. You have no way of knowing what they might take.

No. You can make an offer, but there's no guarantee they'll honor it. [Nina is thinking, of course, of Peter. Still.]

[That giant stack of books looks like it's about to fall over! Rushing to the rescue, Al grabs them from the other side to try and steady them.]

H-Hey! Be careful, this is a lot of books at once.

It's okay, as long as you're not hurt.
