Shout out to Madison for being the kind of ex that skips angry jealousy and jumps directly into being the best/worst wingman.

Like they see through your bullshit but they also know all your secrets.

Aka: oh God the gf and the ex are talking......and it's definitely about me....

Aka: a war on two fronts.

Ex.

At Maddox and Jet's apartment

Madison: sooo, Ash, what'd you do to make the first move?

Ashlyn: how do you know I made the first move? Maybe in between being a boss on set Maddox created an elaborate scheme to woo me.

Madison: Please, Gadget initiating a date? Ms. Woman of the Woods is a workaholic princess, and a big scaredy cat.

Ashlyn: ....Princess?

Madison: Urban Dictionary, I'll give you $20 to look up that definition right here.

Maddox: yo Mad? How's this for Princess? Get out of my house!

Madison: oh come on Mad, I'm just teasing. You're cute when you're flustered. Am I right though? Was Ashlyn the one who made the first move.

Maddox: ..... technically you were....

Madison: Me?! You mean the Balloons? Girl we've been broken up since before Halloween! Were you at least planning something for her?

Maddox:...….....

Madison: Gadget

Maddox: I was a little busy meeting the exacting demands of a hyper-artistic and pretentious director, thank you!

Ashlyn: wait a minute..... Before Halloween? But you picked up her phone on college outreach day!

Madison: yeah well, the last time Maddie got the flu, she overworked herself until it changed into a severe cast of pneumonia and she had to spend the rest of the summer in the medical cabin. I live like an hour and a half out from here, so I figured I would bring some soup and keep her from dying or drowning herself trying to shower. I thought you were calling to check up on her.

Ashlyn: No! I WAS CALLING TO ASK HER OUT!

Madison: See! You even though we might still be together at that point! Now that's initiative!

Maddox: I hate this......

every time maddie is sick she always apologizes profusely about not being able to take care of herself

Maddie's a provider, she is so used to taking care of people that she doesn't really comprehend that she is also a kid.

She takes care of jet

Shes in charge of her cabin at Shallow Lake

She manages extras in the movie

She runs the play set

She needs to take care of people, otherwise what good is she? What's the point of keeping her around, she knows people don't really like her. She needs to do these things or she'll be left behind again.

And when she's sick and is not only not helping, but is adding burden, it makes her skin crawl. She just wants to curl in a corner where no one can see her and wait it out. But these adults keep checking on her, and they clearly don't trust her to run things..... she'll just have to try a little harder to prove she can do this.....
