Chapter 12: The Psychology Major
“Relax, Edna” Bobby said in his calming voice, “It was nothing. Probably someone just brushed against my butt walking by.”
“Your butt, huh?” Edna asked calming down a little.
Bobby decided not to tell her about the other thing.
“Yeah,” Bobby said, “You can imagine I was quite surprised.”
Edna could very well imagine Bobby’s surprise. But she couldn’t figure out HOW the Hofstra girls had DONE it. And she was SURE they had.
“Bobby, I’m not very hungry and I’ve got stuff to do,” Edna said apologetically, “I’ll see you at training.”
Edna got up and disposed of her tray. Then she went hunting for Nancy. She spied her sitting by Studmuffin Stan and she leaned over her shoulder between her and Stan and started to whisper in her ear.
“I need to see...” Edna stopped suddenly.
Sniff ... sniff.
Stan smelled exactly like Bobby. What was happening?
“You need to see something?” Nancy asked innocently.
“Yeah,” Edna answered, “You. On the loading dock.”
Nancy wasn’t scared of Edna. She casually disposed of her tray and the two walked calmly to the loading dock. Nancy crossed her arms just as she had that morning.
“I spoke to Bobby,” Edna started.
“Yeah?” Nancy replied, “How did he smell?”
Edna was taken aback by the question.
“He smelled great,” Edna replied, “Just like Studmuffin Stan.”
“I told you we’d make him better,” Nancy nodded, “Do you want to know how?”
“You put something in the baby oil?” Edna guessed.
“No,” Nancy answered, “The baby oil was phase one. That was just to get their bodies shining. The cologne had to be applied to specific areas more carefully. That was phase three. Jenna did that, she’s an Arts Major, she painted them as they dried off with special spray equipment.”
Edna remembered Jenna’s Fedex package.
“Nellie concocted the stuff,” Nancy continued, “She’s a Chemistry major.”
Edna remembered smelling musk on Nellie. Everything was beginning to fit.
“Do you know what she calls it?” Nancy asked.
Edna thought for just a second, “Torpedo Juice?”
“Bingo!” Nancy pointed at Edna, “And the best part is it will last all day because it’s in their sweat glands. Even if they wash it off their skin, it will come back up within a half hour and they’ll be smelling fine again.”
Nancy breathed in deeply and looked at the sky with a naughty grin, “Each of us Hofstra girls are going to sit next to one of them on the bus ride back.”
“So that was phase three,” Edna thought, “And the baby oil was phase one.”
“You did something else,” Edna insisted, “Between the baby oil and the Torpedo Juice?”
“Okay, here it was,” Nancy thought, “What did Edna know? First, I’ll turn it around on her.”
“We did ... I mean... “ Nancy feigned remorse, “Come on, Edna. You set it up so twenty naked hunks would be at our mercy. We’re only human.”
“Now, probe a little,” Nancy thought.
“And it was all in good fun,” Nancy pleaded, “Did Bobby complain about something?”
“I’m complaining for him,” Edna said, “He said he ... felt ... something touch his butt.”
“Just his butt?” Nancy thought, “Phwew, this was manageable.”
Nancy started, “That was a potato pellet.”
“The POTATOES,” Edna remembered.
Nancy continued, “They all got a potato pellet to the tush. We had an air-pistol and a telescopic sight.”
Edna remembered Susan’s Fedex package.
“Wait a second!” Edna snorted, “It was SUSAN, wasn’t it?”
“Uh-oh,” Nancy thought, “Jealousy. It’s time for the peace offering.”
“It was a taaaap,” Nancy said gently tapping Edna’s shoulder, “Nobody got hurt. Well, except for Macho Mike.”
Edna perked up. She remembered Mike’s funny walk in his towel.
“He got a whole lot more than a tap,” Nancy grinned, “And not on the tush, either.”
“Sooo...” Edna asked suppressing a smile, “Where?”
“Let’s just say he left thinking he had a hernia,” Nancy shrugged, “And then he reported to Nurse Stephanie for what I’m sure was a very EMBARASSING examination,” Nancy concluded with a wink.
Edna laughed a little then composed herself.
“That was probably a good experience for Cadet Driver,” she said somberly, “It may have taught him to accept women in positions of authority. Let him know that we...”
Nancy interrupted, “Have them by the balls?”
The two laughed and exchanged a handshake.
“By the way,” Edna asked, “What is YOUR major?”
“Psychology,” Nancy answered, “That’s how I kept the Twenty Torpedoes from being suspicious. And, also, how I got the Sixteen Scandals to go along with your plan.”
“What do you mean?” Edna asked.
Nancy went into her act, “I’m only going to do this so if anything goes wrong, I’ll be equally guilty with the rest of you. I want to make it clear that I have no interest in watching our male classmates shower, none at all. But, since the rest of you seem intent on doing this, I’ll go along.”
“And then they all went along,” Edna nodded, “Yeah, you weren’t interested in JUST watching like the rest of us. But, why all the secrecy? Why not tell me?”
“You got emotionally involved,” Nancy answered, “You’re in love with Bobby. By the way, are you going to tell him?”
Edna gulped.
“You’re the Psychology Major,” Edna replied, “Do you think I have a shot?”
“It would be a longshot,” Nancy said in a consoling voice, “Bobby’s not the kind of guy who would walk away from a wife and child.”
