You are cordially invited
Who: OTA!
Where: The Keller house (A large Victorian House)
When: Evening
Janie wasn't surprised when Phillip asked her to do something in addition to her list of things to do regarding the campground incident, including helping in the lab, getting set up for shooting lessons, and getting supplies. He wanted to throw a dinner party for something he'd done at work. He asked that she hire a catering service and send out invitations.
After getting more information from him, she discovered that his company had discovered a way to make cheaper transitior radios. They would sell for $29.95, and the company was certain that would increase sales.
She thought the party was nice, but knew that part of it was to alleviate some of the mystery of the place. Phillip's family had once been rich and well-known, but over the years they had begun to fade into obscurity. When Phillip's pretty wife died sixteen years ago, he closed off the mansion and was rarely seen until several months ago.
Hours that could have been spent learning how to kill things, or studying so she could understand more science were spent cleaning, closing drafts, and giving out invitations. She was sure to give Mr.Chow one, since she was rather fond of the grumpy old man, almost begging that he come to the party. There was the bridge club, because they were her best friends, and all of the high society people, since Phillip insisted on it. She also invited Gloria and the people she'd seen around Rev.Templeton's church. Lynn was instructed(against Phillip's wishes) to invite as many friends as possible.
She was told not to invite anyone from the Texaco, so of course, she did. It would be a lively party, and she hoped to get her friends alone for at least a few minutes to talk about things.

She made that motion people do when they want to hug someone but not sure if they should.
May I hang my coat somewhere?

Janie went ahead and attempted to give Gloria a hug. "I thought the butler was supposed to take the coats... but I can take it for you."

"I think the girls have been playing pranks." she said, "Excuse me... I need to hang this. I've got a group of us right there."
Janie pointed to where Vito, Maxine, and Eric stood.

It appears to be a virus that affected the possum. I am still running some diagnostics on the samples that we have collected of the disease. I am not familiar with the pathogen but I have asked some colleagues for their opinions and some more reference materials but I have yet to hear back.
She hoped she was both giving enough information and being ambiguous enough on the subject to meet with the approval of others involved. She still felt like shuddering inside when she thought of the walking corpse-like hunter.

She shook her head and just a bit of worry crept into her expression. No, I don't believe it is a strain of rabies. At the very least it is not a strain that I have ever seen.
