Manny suddenly panicked, worried that his parents would be furious when they found out that he was working as a small trade union at Black Bookstore.Moreover, the bookstore was in a mess. If parents saw such a scene, the consequences would be disastrous.So he, Bernard, and Fran hurriedly started cleaning, trying to restore the neatness of the bookstore before Manny's parents arrived.However, time was tight and there was no time to tidy up many places. Fran came up with a quick idea and suggested covering the messy parts with cloth.

When Manny's parents arrived at the bookstore, they saw an area covered with cloth.Fran hurriedly explained that this was an Italian decorative style.Everyone sat around eating and chatting. Manny's father praised Manny and the bookstore he opened to Bernard, and called Fran his girlfriend.Fran and Bernard look at each other, but Manny pleads for their help in telling the lie.
