Jacob had never seen the purse she was handed before. She took it anyway. She tucked it under an arm and her house number hoping that Dana was home.
The phone was answered by a woman's voice. It was Dana. 'Dana it's me, Jacob. I know I don't sound like myself but you will never believe what has happened'
'Jacob. I know what has happened. You have some visitors who think you have the medallion. They won't leave until you turn up. Do you have it?'
'No. I was arrested. They think I'm a prostitute. Evidently whoever I am now has a record interstate. It was so humiliating'
Sharon in Jack's body snatched the phone from the person she still thought was Dana. Jack had not let on about who she really was, but the real Sharon had her suspicions 'Listen Jackie. We need you back here with the medallion right now. Do that and we can all get back into our own bodies. We now know you were just an innocent bystander'
'Is that you Jack? You won't believe what has happened to me. I've somehow been turned into a woman! I escaped from some house but the man I thought was going to give me a lift home turned on me. Now I find I have a criminal record! Were you at that house? One of the men looked just like you. And I don't have the medallion any more. It's gone' Jacob now "Jackie" pleaded.
'Well that's a problem. A really big problem for you. What did you do with it?'
'It was in the car when the man drove off. The police gave me a purse they said they found in the car but I've never seen it before. I'm not even sure whether the car the police found and the car I fled from are the same car. They wouldn't listen to me. They called me a street walker. My clothes are torn. I was molested and I'm now on some sort of probation. I don't want to go back to jail'
This was making no sense to Sharon, now "Jack". Clearly the man come woman was agitated, she sounded quite hysterical. 'Where are you now? Can you get home?' she tried to say in a soothing voice.
'They handed me a purse they say is mine. It's not though. I've never seen it before'
'Have you looked in the purse? Is the medallion in the purse?'
'I'm looking now. No, it's just a small purse! Just some cash. Lots of cash $100.... no $250 and .... Ughh... Condoms.... Lipstick... Other stuff but no medallion'
'Well use the cash to get a taxi home. We'll wait here for you'
'Who's else is there? Is that Rick man there? He's scary'
'No Just me Dana and Sharon'
'Sharon? She was with Rick. She's one of the people who kidnapped me'
'Sharon is also hiding from Rick. She was just pretending to co-operate with him. Rick's the bad guy. Not Sharon' The apparent "Jack" winked at the apparent "Sharon".
'Okay I guess I'll come home.....'
