Rico and Marlene begun to hang out a lot and go out at night, making skipper angry because one if his men wouldn't hang out with him that much anymore.

Skipper was training with Kowalski and private, when he saw Rico and Marlene holding hands walking around the zoo

"Oh hello skipper" a dit Marlene,"how's your jour been?"

"Fine...just fine...." a dit skipper, kicking the Rock suivant to him into the water.

"Hey skipper, hee....I've never felt like this before.....I can actually montrer my feelings towards someone I love!" a dit Rico, grabbing Marlene's hands.

Skipper became agitated, he hated this side of Rico, he wanted to old Rico back, angry, skipper a dit his goodbye and ran off to train with the other two penguins.

Meanwhile, Rico kissed Marlene on the lips and waved goodbye to her, as she was going back to her habitat to get ready for thier 3rd date, Rico ran accueil and begun to get ready for thier 3rd date.

Rico didn't even say hi to the boys, and ran and begun to think about what to give Marlene this time, until he got Thai perfect idea to write her a poem, even though Rico couldn't write rev good, he sat for two hours thinking of a poem to write for her, while skipper and the others sat there and watched him.

"Shouldn't u be hanging out with your Friends Rico?, I mean, you've been hanging out with Marlene a lot lately...and u hardly have anytime for us anymore.." a dit skipper silently saying that to him.

"I'm sorry skipper...it's just I've never felt like this before...all I can think about is her....I l’amour her..." a dit Rico, finishing up his poem for her. And ran out to Marlene's habitat, saying goodbye to his friends.

"Ugh....this is why I hate love...." a dit skipper with a sad look on his face, and him and the other two sat and watched tv.

Menawhile....Rico was just at Marlene's door, but before he knocked, he overheard Marlene and her friend talking, curious, he sat quietly and listened.

"C'mon! How long is this plan going to take?!" a dit Leslie, pacing back and forth.

"You've been going out with him for 2 weeks and he still doesn't want you?!" a dit Leslie.

" I know... I wish skipper would pay plus attention to me....this plan with going out With Rico to get skipper jealous isn't working out good." a dit Marlene, laying on her bed.

Rico then back away slowly, and froze in silence after hearing this.

"She...she was using me?" a dit Rico

"I....loved her....and she went and did this behind my back, u showed her my inner persona to someone I wanted to l’amour forever.." a dit Rico, who began to cry.

"I knew she was joking around...nobody would want to go out with me anyways....I mean look at me.... I'm hideous" a dit Rico crying silently, not wanting them to hear him.

Then Rico dropped his poem and ran as far as he could away from the zoo, away from it all, crying and crying....he was crushed....
