The Responsible One Holly Laney Grey is surprised when her older sibling Andrea comes home early from her waitressing job. After some probing from Holly, it turns out that Andrea has been fired for irresponsible behavior. Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time Andrea’s come home jobless. In fact, it’s the third job she lost this year! Their rent is due soon, and Holly is frustrated and disappointed that Andrea isn’t trying to either get her job back or get a new one. It doesn’t seem like Andrea’s willing or able to pull her weight, and Holly’s feeling backed into a corner. After a heated confrontation, Holly angrily leaves, saying that she’ll clean up Andrea’s mess… A short time later, Holly approaches Mr. Lewis Seth Gamble, the owner of the restaurant that Andrea just got fired from. She pleads for Andrea to be given her job back, explaining that they’re orphans and desperately need this job. Although he’s sympathetic, Mr. Lewis says that he’s given Andrea too many chances already. She’s a liability… though he notes that HOLLY seems more levelheaded — and pretty, too. That’s when Holly offers to take over Andrea’s job herself. Even though she may not have waitressing experience, she’s a hard worker, so Mr. Lewis won’t be disappointed. But Holly can see that Mr. Lewis is still on the fence, so she decides to make a bold, desperate move. Since he already mentioned she’s pretty, maybe there’s something else Holly can do to convince him to take her on…
