Frankie Talks to Sharlene The Day After Valentine's Day, 1990

Frankie goes to the farm to talk to Sharlene the day after Valentine's Day. Sharlene is upset because there's a red wig in her bedroom that she can't account for. Sharlene eventually decides that the wig must have been delivered to the farm by mistake for Josie, which is the next source of Sharlene's upset. Josie is in the hospital recovering from her voluntary nose job, and she is refusing to see even Sharlene until the bandages come off and the bruises are gone. Sharlene tells Frankie she sometimes feel like Lucas is taking Josie away from her. Then the talk turns to the men in their respective lives--Cass and John. Frankie tells Sharlene that she and Cass had a wonderful night last night, but after Cass drove Frankie home, she wondered what was going to go wrong. Frankie is afraid of losing her instincts, explaining to Sharlene that she would have known Griffen was a psychopath back in Chicago, but here she didn't realize it and she didn't listen to Cass and they both could have been killed. Sharlene emphasizes that what happened with Griffen was NOT Frankie's fault, and as for why it happened, Frankie didn't listen to Cass because she was upset with him, and she feels like she's losing her instincts not because she actually IS losing her instincts, but because she has fallen for Cass, and when that happens it's like putting a magnet next to a compass: everything goes haywire. Frankie says that's scary, and Sharlene says it isn't necessarily scary. Frankie and Sharlene discuss their own fears about things going wrong with Cass and John, respectively, and how Janice, and Frankie's mother Emma, were always waiting for something to go wrong. But Sharlene says that Frankie is not jinxed, and Sharlene is not crazy. They are two very lucky ladies who have two great guys who love them. But Frankie says that she's not ready to be in love right now, and now she has to figure out how to tell Cass that.
