Our New Babysitter

The story

Mr. Owen's wife has left for the evening, telling the new sitter to make herself at home. Sophia, who has a boyfriend she brushes off mid-call, says she is very good at her job. Learning that the wife will not be back until midnight, she tells Mr. Owen to put her to work.

In episode 2 the clock keeps running. He points out he is married, she points out she has a boyfriend, and she calls that half the thrill. Then his wife calls to say she is staying at Jen's and tells him to pay Sophia through the night. Sophia smiles: her shift now runs until morning.

The characters

• Sophia: A confident new sitter who treats her boyfriend as optional and the clock as an ally
• Mr. Owen: The husband left at home, married, tempted and no match for her sense of timing
• His wife: Heads out for the evening, then calls to say she is staying at Jen's
