(Author's note: I've collected as many of the scenes here as I could from Anonymous51's other branch, though there were a couple of scences I couldn't include because they contradicted what I wrote in the last few episodes. This episode is Anonymous51's work, not mine. Any adoration, praise, or Pulitzers should go to my fellow author, not to me.)
After the older woman got off the two bikini-clad college girls, the two girls looked dazed. Ted knew what had happened. They had been swept away and replaced by someone else.
He approached them, not because he still thought they could help him, but because he thought he could help them. He discovered that the moments right after a swap were the most traumatic. Feeling a need to resume his duties as an officer (even dressed as he was), he felt an obligation to help these two girls, or whoever they were now.
By the time he got there, the older woman had already fled the scene, so it was just him and the two girls.
The brunette girl looked around, confused. "Where am I? I was just on a plane."
"Who are you?" Ted asked.
"My name is James. Where's my wife? Where's Angela?" the brunette girl asked.
This was disheartening. Not only did the guy lose his wife, but he also wound up in the body of a young woman - something he hadn't noticed yet, but soon would.
The blond girl turned her head. "What happened?"
Ted walked over to her. "Who are you?" he asked.
"My name is Angela. What am I doing here? I was on a plane with my husband."
"Angela?" the brunette girl asked.
The blond girl turned and looked at the other girl. "Do I know you?"
"It's me. James."
"James? You mean my James? That's impossible. You're a girl."
Ted made a coughing sound, grabbing their attention. "It's been happening all over town. People have been switching bodies for hours."
Behind them, near one of the college buildings, a woman shouted. "What the hell am I wearing?!" They turned and saw her rip off her blouse and the bra underneath.
"See, there's another one. My guess is that a guy has that woman's body now," Ted said.
The two girls looked at each other. "Tell me something that only James would know," the blond one said.
The brunette did as the other wanted and it seemed to satisfy the blond. Then they embraced and then they kissed. It was odd seeing two girls kiss like that, but Ted knew that they were really a married couple. A husband and wife, in the guise of two college girls. What was odder was the fact that both of them ended up in close proximity with each other. Up until now, married couples who got swapped at nearly the same time ended up on opposite sides of town. But these two ended up in two people who were side-by-side.
After an hour of running and hiding, Alexis made it to a place where she knew she could get help - a women's clothing store. She was sure she could find a bra and shirt to wear, and maybe a skirt to replace her grungy jeans. She'd be back to normal in no time.
She browsed the bras, looking for her size. At this point, she didn't care if it looked really sexy or not. She just wanted a bra. After a minute or two, she found one that she liked and took it.
"Shopping for a girlfriend?" one of the saleswomen asked, approaching her.
"What? No, this is for me."
The saleswoman gave her an odd look. And after Alexis made a motion to put the bra on, the woman stopped her. "This isn't the place to do that. There are children here," she said, nodding towards a little girl who was shopping with her mother.
"That's why I'm putting it on. I don't want to appear indecent." Then she put the bra on anyway and suddenly she felt a whole lot better. Not only did her embarrassment melt away, but her back wasn't aching anymore. It's not easy carrying around D-cup breasts when not having support.
She glanced over at the mother with the little girl. She was giving Alexis a disapproving look and was covering her daughter's eyes. Why was she acting like that? Would she rather see Alexis be topless?
She moved on to the clothing racks and picked out a couple of cute tops, then she went into one of the dressing stalls to try each one out. And that's when she saw her reflection. In all her dashing about, not once had she seen what everyone else saw. It explained some things, like why certain people were acting the way they did. But that didn't make her feel any better.
In the mirror, she saw an attractive muscular man (someone she could fall in love with in a heartbeat). He was wearing a pair of grungy jeans, a pair of work boots ... and a bra.
Ned still couldn't believe that this was really happening. At first, he thought he was just tripping. But he wasn't getting high at the time, so there must have been a different reason for it.
He looked down at the cheerleader uniform he was still wearing. It looked so odd on his body, but no one seemed to think it was strange to see a boy wearing girl's clothes, especially something so girlish as these.
As he sat there on the park bench, a girl approached him. "Gwen? What are you doing here?" She girl was looking directly at him. Why was she calling him Gwen? Wasn't it obvious that he was a guy dressed as a girl? He didn't think he looked anything like a girl at all.
"Gwen? Are you okay? You seem dazed," the girl said.
