LOUIS: (holding up a newspaper article) Look at this! A pipe burst, and the thrift store on Market Street was severely flooded.

9
EDDIE: Check out those torrents of water in the picture.

10LOUIS: (reading from paper) A deluge of water drenched the clothing on lower displays. Employees attempted to salvage some items, but the majority of the merchandise was destroyed.

11
EDDIE: People contributed most of those clothes after spring-cleaning. The store lost all of its recent donations!

12
ROSA: That thrift store had a great selection of inexpensive clothes. Postponing a reopening is bad for the families that rely on that store.

13
LOUIS: Can’t they just dry off the clothes?

14
ROSA: After so much exposure to moisture, they have probably begun to reek.

15
EDDIE: I don’t even like gross, smelly clothes for sports! They should smell clean and fresh just like fabric softener. (EDDIE smiles dreamily, imagining fluffy clothes right out of the dryer.)

16
ROSA: I’m sure Eddie’s not the only one who appreciates clean fabric. We should try to help restock the store.

17
EDDIE: I’ll design pamphlets to encourage people to donate! We can distribute them in school tomorrow.
