It's visiting day at the Los Angeles County Detention Facility and that means family time for its most infamous inmate.
Like all prisoners, Paris Hilton was allowed a half-hour visit with two guests this time: her parents.
CBS News' Teri Okita reports that Hilton's mom and dad say their daughter is "very scared" and hasn t slept well.
"She just wants to just do her time and get on," Kathy Hilton said on her way in to see her daughter for the first time since hugging her goodbye and sitting in court last Friday.
To avoid another big spectacle, the Hiltons arrived when the visitors center closed for lunch and were escorted by sheriff s deputies.
"We went out and just helped a mother and father who wanted to visit an inmate get out of their car because they were surrounded by aggressive camera people and reporters," said L.A. Sherrif Dept. spokesman Steve Whitmore.
Visiting days at the detention center are Sundays and Tuesday. Inmates are allowed two guests per day for 30 minutes. Attorneys can come daily.
While in detention, Hilton is only allowed three magazines and three books a week. She's reportedly reading The Secret, The Power of Now, and the Bible. She says she has a spiritual advisor and has apparently found God.
She receives duffel bags of mail each day, but forget about sending her things like money, desk supplies, or rosaries Even lottery tickets and lip gloss are forbidden.
Hilton's release and then, return to the slammer last week didn't only create a sensation outside รข€" inmates were captivated, as well.
"Everybody was just talking about it," said Carlos Aguirre, an inmate freed Tuesday. "That was the topic of the week, actually. Everybody was like, 'she should just do her time. What makes her so special?'"
Sheriff's sources say Hilton will most likely spend the remainder of her sentence at the medical ward where it costs ten times as much to house a female inmate than the jail she called home for three days.
She's due to be released June 25 and at that time, will have to find a new agent.
The Endeavor talent agency has dropped the reality show star, said Michael Donkis, a spokesman for the company.
"She is no longer a client," he said, declining further comment.
Hilton has been represented by the Beverly Hills-based agency since 2005.
The 26-year-old star of "The Simple Life" launched a pop-music career in August. She also has a namesake perfume and handbag collection.
The Endeavor agency was founded by powerful talent agent Ari Emmanuel who is said to be the inspiration for Jeremy Piven's character, Ari Gold, on the HBO series "Entourage."
