A Wild Deuce Appears, Part 2.

Monday:

Cleo: Deuce, where are you?
No Deuce.
Tuesday:

Toralei: You know, it's possible he just decided not to come back, right? I mean, you guys are awfully young to be tied down and besides, he's Deuce. It's not like you don't have other options.
Cleo: Not. Helping.

Spectra: Ghouls! You've gotta see this-
Cleo: The last time I listened to you, Spectra, I spent the whole day out in the rain waiting for Deuce. Guess who's not here? Deuce! I'm not listening any more.
Spectra: But...

Toralei: Don't worry, you get used to her temper.
Spectra: But Deuce is here.
Toralei: Suuuuuuure he is.

Cleo: Maybe Toralei's right...

Lagoona: Cleo! You'd better come quick, I think you're going to want to see this!

Cleo: What's the point?
Lagoona: Trust me. Come on!

Lagoona: This just arrived and Ghoulia's pretty sure Deuce is inside.

Cleo: DEUCE! Deuce, can you hear me?
You might recall that Cleo is afraid of the dark and she might be panicky at the thought of her boyfriend locked in the dark, all alone.

Cleo: Hold on, Deuce. I'll save you!
Sadly, Cleo's not the strongest ghoul around, fearleading not withstanding.
She begins to panic in earnest.

Cleo: CLAWDEEN! Someone? Help!

Clawdeen: Don't worry, Cleo. We'll get you two back together in no time. Ready?

Toralei: You know it.

The box is no match for Toralei's fury and Clawdeen's additional claws. In no time at all, Deuce is freed.

The happy couple is reunited.

Spectra: I told her he'd be here in time for Valentine's Day!
