Josie; Melody; Pepper; Albert; Alexander Cabot III; Alexander Cabot II
During a particularly cold winter, Alex whisks the whole gang off to the Cabot family's desert resort. Josie and Pepper like being away from the cold, but there's one disadvantage: in warm weather, Melody doesn't need to cover up, and with Melody in bathing suits, no one's paying any attention to them.
