Jon stared in bewilderment at the man sitting in the back seat. She recognizes him immediately, and his mischevious grin tells Jon he recognizes her, too, despite her new appearance.
"Gramps?" Jon said. "How..."
"Quiet, Jon," Jon's grandfather whispers. "You mustn't let anyone know who I really am, and who you really are. Quickly, get in the van."
"But I..."
"Jon, listen to me. Your carelessness has put this world in danger, and we can only rescue it with your help. Now come on, get in."
"Can't I get dressed first?"
Jon's grandfather looks at his new body, wrapped only in a towel. "I suppose that might be a good idea. But hurry!"
Jon turned and walked back to the trailer where he'd found Sarah and found the clothes she'd been given a moment ago. Locking the door behind her, she dressed as quickly as she knew how (though she was slowed by her unfamiliarity with women's clothing). The clothes weren't her ideal choice... they consisted of a short skirt, a t-shirt, a bra, thong panties, and high-heeled shoes. They would do for now, though. She quickly dressed.
She glanced in the mirror to see if she looked reasonably dressed. Her reflection in the mirror surprised her. She had looked feminine before, but now she was unmistakably a woman. She had short blonde hair in what could easily pass as either a man's or a woman's haircut. It seemed to her eyes to belong more to a woman, but it didn't look at all out of place... in fact, it made her look pretty sexy. Her hair was her only feature that could be mistaken for masculine. Vague traces of her old face remained, but it was very feminine now. She thought it looked even more feminine than it had before this whole movie fiasco had started... maybe the wish had reshaped her features a little bit more for some reason. Her body, with the tape removed, was slim but feminine, and her breasts, though not large, were adequately sized and very obvious through her tight t-shirt.
She saw the rock laying on the dressing table. She picked up the rock. She knew she couldn't wish herself into a male body, but she decided she'd give it a shot anyway. Nothing happened.
"Well, then, I at least wish I knew what was going on," she said.
She didn't notice the usual effect that made her look away when she made a wish. That worried her. She was even more worried when she realized that she didn't know any more than she had before she made the wish.
"I wish I was wearing jeans," she said. Nothing happened. "I wish wish Sarah were back in here." Nothing happened. "I wish I had brown hair." She looked in the mirror and saw that she still had her same old blonde hair, in her same old blonde haircut. Something must have happened to depower the rock. Had it become just a prop in this movie, just like she had become an actress?
She remembered her grandfather waiting outside in the Buick. Maybe he knew more than she did. She made certain she still had the rock, then hurried outside.
