But a present does arrive at the Tower. Nothing spectacular other than an arrangement of exotic flowers and a note: Dinner Wednesday for your birthday? Thank you for being a friend. Love, Jesse

She makes sure they have sun and plenty of water, since she's not going to be around to take care of them.

She sends out an e-mail to Jesse after that:

Jesse,

My love to you and Wally,

He's been back and forth from the Tower recently, keeping tabs on the rebuilding efforts - physically and metaphorically.

In her room, she'll find one of those cute toy WWF Championship belts on her dresser, and a cupcake with a lightning bolt made of frosting on it.

She cracks up laughing for a solid two minutes, which is a major feat under the circumstances, and one of the best gift of all.

After making a wish with her "birthday cake," (which you can't say what it is, because then it won't happen), she types with frosting covered fingers.

Wally,

Thanks for making me laugh - and a little "underdog," reference never hurts.

My love to you and Jesse,

PS: I think I figured out what we're supposed to do about the new club. Tell you when I get back.

Yes, yes, provided she does. You have to think positively.
