I think Stacey's folks wouldn't be keeping her under lock and key or refusing to allow her to join her friends on future holiday trips, but they would caution her about cars, especially her mum.
And I think it would depend on what sort of scandal Cam was involved in and if Mary Anne was still interested in Cam.
If Cam was involved in a racist or homophobic crime, Mary Anne would lose interest in Cam and no longer crush on Cam.
If it were a drug or alcohol abuse scandal Cam got himself into, maybe Mary Anne would donate to an alcohol or drug treatment program or gather her friends to volunteer at a rehab center.
Anyway...if Dawn were not a vegetarian, it would be no big deal...then they would just have their standard meat fare.
Mary Anne then wouldn't have to be grossed out by tufu and beans.
What if in The Secret Life of Mary Anne Spier, Mary Anne had met Angela's snobby parents and had to deal with those two dunderheads, especially the cruel way they rejected their own daughter?
What would go down? Would Mary Anne be frightened of them?

Or maybe she would tell them off..
What if Stacey told Kristy to piss off when Kristy was insisting she wore the old clothes? Or if she actually told Kristy it's none of her business what she wore?

Or if she actually told Kristy it's none of her business what she wore? They probably would have fought some, then worked out a compromise or something. What if in Mary Anne and the Library Mystery the burned books turned out to be a right-wing group visiting Stoneybrook? Even worse, an anti-Semitic group passing through Stoneybrook? How scared would Mary Anne and the rest of the BSC be? And what would their nightmares be like? And how would they band together to expose and maybe jail the group?

They would have fought and eventually make up by the end of the book. What if Mary Anne did go on the European trip with the BSC and leaving dawn behind.

Mary Anne would have invited Dawn to come to Europe with her, not just left her behind without asking. I wish all the BSC had gone to Europe in that book and had visited Germany or Italy instead of France.

The plot would probably be like the later Kristy Power!, Kristy or Mary Anne or all of the sitters public speaking/campaigning that censorship and violence are not OK, otherwise with the solving the mystery an overheard slip of the tongue comment or maybe spying on a meeting, then telling the police, would solve and punish the crimes.
Probably only Abby would be really scared though the others sympathetic like they were to Claudia in Keep Out, Claudia!

Mostly agreed, but I don't see Abby being the only scared one, though. Mary Anne is also terrified of the right-wingers...she'd be pretty up there on the scared list, especially since she adores books. What if in high school, the characters...who would be the same age as the senior BSC members...from Girl Talk met the BSC and they got to know one another and become friends? What sort of topics would they talk about? What sort of things would they bond over?

What if Nannie did move out of the Big House for good?

Then either they'd all miss her or Nannie would live close enough to visit often.
What if Watson and Elizabeth adopted several more kids until there were ten kids in the Watson-Brewer family?

What if Nannie did move out of the Big House for good? She would have visited her family a lot and still be involved with their lives, stepping in from time to time.
What if Dawn and Mrs. Schafer moved into Mary Anne's house on Bradford Court instead?

What if Dawn and Mrs. Schafer moved into Mary Anne's house on Bradford Court instead? They would have been a bit cramped...remember also that Dawn and Mary Anne nearly drove each other insane sharing one room until Dawn spooked Mary Anne out. 😄😄😄 What if Watson and Elizabeth adopted several more kids until there were ten kids in the Watson-Brewer family?

What do you think the Big House would do without Nannie? Would they have to get a housekeeper? Watson retire? Nannie did move in to help with Emily and became the Alice of the Brewer/Thomas bunch. I don't think anyone would have been very happy at Bradford Court. There would be no room for Jeff ever, and Mary Anne and Dawn wouldn't have enough personal space. (I'm big on having my own space.) Perhaps they should have sold both houses and bought a neutral territory one for the newly merged family. What if Jessi had gotten the lead in Peter Pan?

Ohh good point, I'd assume with Watson home more they would just get more organized. They already have a cleaning lady so I don't think it'd be too diffcult. As for Jessi getting the lead, I think she would just add to her resume and feel bad for getting part like she did in Jessi's Secret Language.
What if Logan was the one that broke up with Mary Anne in book 41?

Pretty much the same...Mary Anne would cry oceans of tears, then move on.
For all her sensitivity, she's a very strong person.
What if Janine decided to go to West Point Military Academy for university instead of a traditional university?

She would get lots of military honors and come back to Stoneybrook super-ripped, much to Claudia's irritation. What if Abby and Anna switched places for a week Parent Trap-style?
