Stranded! Mafia/Clue Game MAFIA WINS

Lizzie Foreman’s Diary


Dad wants us to go on a family vacation, but the idea of leaving behind my arts and crafts to go somewhere with someone who doesn’t even like having me around doesn’t sound very fun.

I’ve known for a while now that my mom has never really enjoyed being around me. I’ve been able to tell since I was four years old. Now that I’m eleven, it’s become even more obvious, leaving me with a dull pain in my chest.

Instead of trying to get her attention, I prefer to swirl paints on a blank canvas. I would rather hide away in my room and create things until my dad comes home. When he gets home, I’m able to show him my artwork. Then he will tell me that someday I will be able to make a career out of it. Dad’s the best!

Mom isn’t ever home really. She likes to be at work, in fact she seems to love it! She stays there late, and often I don’t hear her car come in until three in the morning. I’m left alone a lot. But when dad is home, we watch movies, read books together, and I feel like someone in this big house actually cares about me.

I hope that this vacation goes okay. Dad says we’ll be able to fish, go out on the sea, and maybe meet mermaids if we go scuba diving! I secretly think he is trying to coax me with my favorite fairy tale though. I guess I’ll wait and see!



Karen Foreman’s Diary

I never wanted to get married or have a kid. Looking back on everything, I wish I hadn’t gotten married for the sake of money. Jack is hairy, and boring, and uninteresting. He doesn’t want to go out and have fun. I want to spend time out with my friends, and go out and have fun.

So, I do. My daughter, (more like the weight tying me down to this marriage) is old enough to stay home by herself now, and when work is over...I hang out with my friends.

Or... meet up with my much younger, much cuter boyfriend, James. He and I go on dates together often, staying up til the wee hours of the morning. I’m so happy to have a single young man all to myself!

I have a feeling that Jack is suspicious of my “working late”, and he keeps trying to fix our marriage. He’s even requested family and marriage counseling!

Why can’t he just leave me alone and let me be happy?

Jack Foreman’s Diary

Karen is fading away from me. It just doesn’t seem fair. I work so hard to keep our family afloat, and all I truly want from her is to show a little love and appreciation for that. I never see her anymore, and she rejects me at every turn when it comes to both our physical and emotional relationship.

I would do nearly anything to make this relationship work, but now it is affecting our daughter as well. It breaks my heart to see my baby girl all alone in the house when I get back because Karen is “working” late. I don’t care what she says, being a CEO of a large company does NOT keep you at the office from 6 am to 3 am everyday.

I’ve suggested family counseling, I’ve suggested marriage counseling, both of which she has rejected. Now I’m doing my last attempt at saving this family, via a vacation. If everything goes well, then maybe I won’t need to ask for a divorce after all.

At least, I hope not...

James Mitchel’s Diary

I don’t know what I was thinking, asking Sharon to marry me. I’m not ready for a commitment, but she is. It was her birthday, and I wanted to make her happy, but honestly, I feel like it was a huge mistake now.

I’ve always had commitment issues, so maybe that’s where it sparks. I know I love Sharon, but the idea of being tied down makes me feel sick and light headed. Not the good kind, more like the kind of light headed you get right before you accidentally trip over your feet, and smash your head into the concrete of a sidewalk.

Then I met Karen. True, she’s older, but she is good in the bedroom, and she likes to buy me stuff! I bring Sharon home nice things by returning some of the things that Karen has bought me in exchange for sex. So, Sharon can’t be that mad right?

Well, it’s not like she’s going to find out...Karen doesn’t even know that I’m engaged!

I mean, really, what are the chances of either of them learning the truth?





Sharon Gibbs’ Diary

James asked me to marry him 6 months ago! I’m finally getting married to the man of my dreams. He’s so wonderful and sweet, and yes there have been times when we’ve had our issues, but what couple hasn’t?

My best friend, Julie, and I, have been planning my wedding together. We’ve looked at dresses, flowers, and even cakes! James has been kind of acting weird when I bring up the wedding plans, but he’s agreed with everything that I’ve come up with so far. I’m sure he’s excited too! He just...doesn’t know how to express himself well.

We are traveling to the islands for our wedding. I’ve always dreamed of getting married on the beach to the most wonderful man in the world. It looks like I’m getting everything I’ve ever wanted, and I am so thankful! I know he would never do anything to hurt me.

I will never find someone to love me as much as he does.


Chase Mason’s Diary

That Karen Foreman from home office had me fired. Or, laid off for a gentler term. I know why she did it. I was making a little too much money compared to those who had worked there less and she wanted to be rid of me so then she could hire one of those suckers to do my job for less pay.

Corporations make me sick. She totally screwed me over! Now I’m stuck living with my twin brother and his crazy wife who both insist that the 80’s is still in! It’s 2013 for crying out loud! Move on already!

I wish I could move out on my own, but with all my debts I can barely survive. I shouldn’t have bought that brand new car, or rented a $1500.00 a month condo, or used up those four or five visa cards. Maybe I shouldn’t have taken out that personal loan to buy that boat either...

Then there was the vacation I had already paid for with a different loan.

Christian wants us to all go in an attempt to bond...

What the hell does that even mean?




Christian Mason’s Diary

Chase had to move in with me and my wife. He was laid off by some woman at his office, and has been trying to get a hold of his finances ever since.

What blows is he and Jill just can’t seem to get along. I’ve tried reasoning with them both, but they just drive each other crazy. Jill insists that Chase is pushing his views and invading on our way of life, and Christian says Jill is annoying, obnoxious, and loud.

I will admit they both have good points, but I wish they’d just work things out or keep me out of it.



Jill Mason’s Diary

I’m so sick of living with Christian’s stuck up, snobby brother. I’m an artist! The best Avant Garde out there, and I will stand up for whatever I want! Even if it means standing up for the lack of cookies or chips because Chase ate them! And yes! I will paint art on buildings or sidewalks.

You’d think with the way that Chase talks that I was a hippie or something! He just needs to learn to shut his mouth and get his groove on. Christian and I love our house and how we act groovy and hip all the time. If Chase didn’t want to listen to his brother attempting to play the guitar to the classic Elvis Presley, then maybe he shouldn’t have moved in.

I swear, Christian’s brother will be the end of me!



Julie Lynn’s Diary

I honestly think that on some level my friend Sharon has gone insane. It’s like she doesn’t notice her fiance does not care about the wedding at all! I mean, I love helping her and all, and I am excited for her, but at the same time I don’t want her to get hurt.

I often tell my roommate, Kyle, about the whole situation. I think he’s a pretty cool guy. He’s very supportive of my artistic skills, and tells me that I should do more with my ability than teach painting to elementary students.

Kyle doesn’t understand though. I just love how I can teach kids to make something out of nothing. A stroke of a paintbrush, and you have water, the sky, or even the starts of a castle! There is so much you can do, and with children there seems to be a large pool of untapped talent.

There is a little girl in my Art class named Lizzie Foreman. She’s so sweet and seems to soak up everything I show her like a sponge. Lizzie seems so sad though, I hope that whatever is wrong remedies itself out soon.

She deserves happiness.

Kyle Anderson’s Diary

I want to tell her how I feel. Lately, my roommate Julie makes my heart beat fast whenever she is in the same room as me. I know it might come as a shock to her, but I want her to know that I want to start dating her. I think I’ve fallen in love with her.

There is so many times you can leave flowers on the table for someone until you realize that maybe they don’t get what you are hinting at. Only so many times they can go on and on about a wedding you don’t even care about before you want to scream, “Don’t you know I’m falling in love with you and that’s why I’m listening to this nonsense?”

I’m going to surprise her with a trip to the islands. There, I’m going to tell her how I feel and how I want nothing more than to keep her in my life as my girlfriend.

I don’t know what I would do if she says no…

Marina Gibb’s Diary

It’s been years since the incident with Sharon. She found out that I had a crush on her boyfriend, James, and ever since then won’t speak a word to me.

She doesn’t even know that he and I slept together behind her back in high school. All she knows is I thought he was cute and is holding it against me…

How fair is that?

It’s not.

But mom said I can be a bridesmaid at her wedding, and that Sharon actually wants me there. I really hope mom isn’t just lying to get the family together…

She’s tried that before, and let’s just say that it didn’t work out too well the last time.

I hope Sharon IS ready to move on, because I do love her very much, and also...I’d love to hang out with James again…
