Trey: 20 grand doesn't mean
anything to Liza.
But it'll buy your son
a lifetime.
Kendall's voice: That's
right, mother.
Give her the love I'll never
have.
I'll take your hate instead,
and I'll use it against you.
Erica: I am more determined
than ever to get Kendall out
of our lives.
Greenlee: Yes, Leo,
I'll marry you.
TODAY'S - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Jack: You know, Kendall's
the one who should be up
on charges.
Sending that child out with two
bottles of champagne -- what was
she thinking about?
Erica: Well, both girls made
really terrible mistakes.
I'm just really grateful to you,
Jack, you know, that you're
taking care of it.
Thank you.
Jack: Well, Bianca's not
quite out of the woods yet.
You understand that?
Erica: Well, no, but thanks
to you, she's not going to be
arrested, and at least you kept
her DUI out of the papers.
Jack: So far.
Kendall: Hi.
Erica: Hi.
Jack: Hi.
Kendall: I -- I brought some
of Myrtle's corn muffins.
I mean, it's not much,
but for Bianca's sake,
you should probably keep up
your strength.
Adam: Mia?
Have you been in here all night?
Are you ok?
Mia: I feel like hell.
Adam: You want me to call
someone for you?
Mia: There's no one to call.
So I have to ask you.
Adam, I need to borrow some
money.
Adam: Is that all?
Fine, fine.
How much?
Mia: $20,000.
Erica: I just haven't been
able to think about food,
but thank you.
Maybe Jack.
Jack: Maybe later.
Erica: Ok.
Ryan: So how's Bianca this
morning?
Erica: Oh, she's much better,
thank you.
Not well enough to have
visitors, but --
Kendall: Well, we'll -- we'll
stick around for a while just
in case.
Erica: I thought you would.
Ryan: So how do you feel?
Kendall: Relieved, now that
I know Binky's going to be ok.
And you saw Erica and I.
We've reached a new level
of understanding.
Ryan: Yeah, worrying about
Bianca has kind of forged a bond
between you two.
Kendall: Well, it keeps it
simple.
Ryan: Yeah.
Kendall: Do you mind getting
me a bottle of water?
Ryan: Sure.
Kendall: Thanks.
[Kendall dials her cell phone]
Kendall: Donald Steele,
please.
Never mind who this is, just put
me through.
Mr. Steele, I have a hot tip
for you.
Erica Kane is about to escape
justice again.
She thinks her daughter Bianca
is above the law.
[Greenlee wakes up - alone]
Greenlee: Leo --
Leo, I had the most wonderful--
Greenlee: Leo?
My engagement ring--
Greenlee: It was all a dream.
Hayley: I don't care what it
tastes like.
Nobody is naming a drink after
our son.
Mateo: But Marty thought it
was a good idea -- you know,
marketing-wise.
Hayley: But Marty is just
trying to score points with you.
Ok?
Sorry, we're closed.
Chris: Well, that's good
because I'm not here to eat
or drink.
Hayley: Oh, really?
Then what do you want?
Chris: Help.
Mateo, how would you like to be
the final nail in Vanessa
Cortlandt's coffin, huh?
Vanessa: Well, you might
as well come in now that
you know my secret.
Trey: Ok.
What do I know?
Vanessa: Oh -- that I never
use waterproof mascara.
When I cry, I gave my fans
rivers of gray.
Trey: Save the Hollywood
babble-on, Vanessa.
I'm here to talk business.
Your son Leo -- you can't
trust him.
You've got to sign over
your power of attorney to me.
Vanessa: What are you --
come on, you already have
my autograph.
Trey: Star Lady, Leo can't do
for you what I can.
He's pulled a fast one.
It's going to leave your mascara
running for weeks.
Greenlee: No Leo, no ring,
no fabulous new life.
This time I'm caught in a rerun
of "Dallas."
It was all a dream.
[Leo walks into Greenlee's loft carry catalogs, etc.]
Leo: Are you going to help me
or what?
Greenlee: Leo.
Leo, Leo, Leo!
Leo: Whoa, watch it! Hey.
Look at -- I got bouquet
samples, I got wedding veils,
I've got ideas from the wedding
cake makers.
Greenlee: Leo, we're getting
married.
Leo: Yeah.
And this time, because it's
the last time, I'm going to make
sure everything's perfect.
[Leo takes Greenlee's ring out of his pocket]
Leo: Will you marry me,
Greenlee Smythe?
Greenlee: You know I will.
Leo: Well, then
accept my proposal as a sign
of my love.
Come on, come on.
Greenlee: Oh.
You got it engraved.
That's why you took it.
"Forever.
Do not remove."
Leo: Yeah.
You like it?
Greenlee: Leo, you are
so romantic.
Leo: And determined,
Greenlee.
This is it.
Nothing else is going to get
in our way.
Greenlee: Leo, I don't want
to wait a second longer to he
to get married.
[Phone rings]
Leo: Are you going to get
that?
Greenlee: No.
Let the machine get it.
[Answering machine beeps]
Erica: Greenlee, it's Erica.
If you're there, pick up.
Greenlee: No.
Erica: Call me back as soon
as you can -- sooner.
As soon as you get this,
call me.
Leo: Let me guess -- Erica
needs you.
Greenlee: We just got
re-engaged.
Erica and her corporate games
can wait.
[Knock on door]
[Greenlee groans]
Leo: What, is she calling
from the hallway?
Greenlee: Wouldn't
surprise me.
[Greenlee opens the door]
Roger: Hey!
Greenlee: Daddy!
Roger: Kids, what's shaking?
Greenlee: Well, come
on in and we will tell you all
about it.
Roger: Ok.
Hey.
Is someone getting married?
Leo: Yeah.
Under the circumstances,
I would've asked for her hand,
but --
Roger: All I want is
Greenlee's happiness.
Greenlee: Then we're all
getting what we want.
[Knock on door]
Roger: I'll get the door,
all right?
Ok.
Simone: Hi.
I -- I was just looking
for Greenlee.
Greenlee: Well, look a little
further.
You remember my father?
Roger: Yeah.
Simone: Yeah.
Roger: Simone, isn't it?
Simone: Yes.
Greenlee: Notice anything?
Simone: Oh!
You're engaged again!
Greenlee: Aah!
Simone: Congratulations.
Oh, I knew you had it in you.
Eventually you'd get your act
together.
Leo: Thank you for making me
go in that direction.
Roger: So we owe all of this
happiness to you, Simone?
Simone: Oh, I -- I just,
you know, gave true love
a little boost.
Leo: Well, I hate to propose
and run, but I've got one last
mission to accomplish before
I can rest.
Greenlee: We haven't made any
decisions yet.
Leo: Well, we can do that
later.
I've just got to take out
a little wedding insurance
first.
Greenlee: Who sells wedding
insurance?
Bianca: Am I going to -- am
I going to have to go to court?
Are they going to take
my license away?
Erica: Honey, your --
your Uncle Jack feels that
he can help us avoid some
of that.
Bianca: I'll do community
service and I'll take classes --
Erica: Bianca, Honey,
we're going to just worry about
all of that when we have to, ok?
Right now just be really
grateful that you're not going
to be arrested.
Jack: Yeah, that way we can
hopefully keep it out
of the papers.
[Donald Steele strolls into Bianca's room]
Erica: How did you get
in here?
Donald: So this cozy cover-up
is your doing, huh,
Mr. District Attorney?
Jack: Steele, do yourself
a favor -- turn around and go
back out from which way
you came.
Donald: What a cover story --
"Diva's Drunken Daughter Gets
Special Treatment From Uncle
DA."
Oh, man.
Mateo: Anything to Vanessa's
claim that she's being
gas lighted?
Chris: She says you're
doing it.
Hayley: Please.
We know that's not true.
Chris: But somebody is
getting to her, and that's why
I'm here.
That's why I need you.
I need you to go undercover
for me.
Hayley: Excuse me?
Chris: You know it, Mateo.
You're the only one.
You were the only one who could
get evidence on Proteus when
no one else could.
Hayley: Right, and where
is it?
Where'd it go?
Sorry, my husband doesn't deal
with incompetents.
Good-bye.
Chris: You want to help put
her away for good?
Hayley: Deja vu, vu vu vu vu.
Chris: Sitting here,
serving drinks, snacks -- that
just doesn't plug you in now,
does it, Mateo?
Hayley: Staying alive
and being with his family
provides endless hours
of entertainment.
Chris: I know you, and I know
that you miss that adrenaline
rush that comes from the hunt,
from tracking them down.
Don't you?
Hayley: Yeah, getting
stabbed -- that was great,
wasn't it?
How about being kidnapped?
Yeah, that was really great.
I tell you what, Chris -- get
out of here and take your offer
and shove it!
Mateo: Wait.
Go ahead, I'm listening.
Trey: I'm sorry to break this
to you.
Vanessa: No!
No, I will -- I'm not going
to be replaced.
You know, I will sue.
Trey: Listen to me.
Greenlee and Leo kissed
and made up.
They're more in love than ever.
Vanessa: Greenlee -- this
upstart?
Oh, please.
She's nothing but a day player.
Trey: I'm sorry,
Sarah Heartburn.
I saw the happy couple
with my own two eyes.
They're headed for the altar.
Vanessa: No!
They are not going to marry
her to this picture.
Trey: Greenlee reeled him
back in.
He doesn't give a damn
about you.
Vanessa: Don't you say that.
Don't -- don't you ever say
that.
Trey: Listen, Vanessa.
We have to look out
for your best interests,
you and I.
Sign this.
It gives me your power
of attorney.
Vanessa: Well --
oh, look at this -- somebody's
already witnessed it.
Trey: See, I've thought
of everything.
Go ahead.
Vanessa: Well, how can
I resist?
You know, you come on so strong,
so -- I don't know -- musky man,
you manly, manly, man.
[Vanessa signs the paper]
Trey: You won't regret this.
Vanessa: Oh, I know I won't.
Adam: Gambling debt?
Mia: Adam, it's for my --
I have a son and he's terribly,
terribly sick.
Adam: You have a child?
Mia: I had to put him up
for adoption and the couple who
are caring for him can't afford
the treatment, and they say
that --
they say that he might die.
Adam: And you just found out
about all this?
Mia: Yeah, I was thinking
that maybe I could get a loan
or something, but --
Adam: No, no, no, no, no.
No one's going to advance
you that kind of money
without solid collateral.
Mia: Exactly.
And I don't have anything
to borrow against and I have
practically no savings
whatsoever.
Adam: And no family
to lean on.
Mia: Exactly.
And I didn't want to bother Liza
with all this because -- well,
you know.
Adam: Well, I'm very grateful
for that.
Mia: I know I have absolutely
no right to ask you.
But if it weren't for my little
boy --
can you help me?
Adam: I can.
But I'm not going to give
you a damn dime.
Chris: Well?
What do you think?
Hayley: Well, I already
weighed in on my opinion,
so I know he must be talking
to you.
Mateo: One second.
Mateo: Come here for a second.
Listen, you know this won't be
over until Vanessa's in jail.
Hayley: I actually thought
that you had let this go.
Mateo: Yeah, I thought I had, too.
But I like doing something that
matters.
Hayley: Well, that's
because you are a decent person
and you are an upstanding guy
and you want to make
a difference.
Mateo: Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.
I mean, making sure somebody's
Martini is dry or making sure
that --
Hayley: Ahem --
Mateo: The bacon
in the BLT is crispy --
that's fine and everything,
but it just doesn't cut it.
Hayley: Oh, why do I even
bother?
Go ahead, then. Go for it.
Mateo: You know I won't
if you don't -- if you want me
to, I'll say no, you know?
Hayley: Then what kind
of marriage are we going
to have?
Go ahead.
Go tell Stamp what he wants
to hear.
Mateo: I'm in.
Chris: That's great.
Thank you.
Hayley: Here's the PS from
me --
anything happens to him --
you know, if he's harmed in any
way -- it's going to
become your problem,
and I will hunt you down
and make you pay in some painful
and horrible way.
That's my promise to you.
Have a nice day.
Chris: I -- I get the feeling
she's capable of ordering a hit.
Mateo: On you, she'd take it
out personally.
So let's get to it.
What's our first move?
Vanessa: Finally, a real man
to look after my affairs.
But are you sure that document
is absolutely legal?
Trey: Oh, like The Bill
of Rights, The Declaration
of Independence--
Blanche Dubois?
Vanessa: I know there is,
you know, a number of
personalities roaming around
in here, but none of them are
stupid.
Trey: This power of attorney
is to your advantage.
Vanessa: Now, you listen
to me, Shecky, because I'm not
signing any new contracts until
you free me from this work camp.
Come on.
You spring me and you'll be
rewarded more than your
standard 10%
Trey: Let's talk advance.
Vanessa: No.
No, Shecky.
You're not going to see one
penny in advance until you get
me out of here.
Deal?
Trey: Deal.
Donald: Come on, people.
Give me some dishy quotes.
Erica, how does it feel to have
the DA in your pocket?
Jack: Nobody has me
in their pocket, Steele.
Donald: Yeah, but blood is
thicker than booze, so how
exactly are you protecting
your niece?
Jack: You know, I asked
you nicely to leave.
Now I'm going to make a little
stronger suggestion.
Donald: Ooh, it's time
for threats, huh?
Go ahead, take your best shot.
Erica: Yeah, just so you can
file an assault charge?
Jack: I wouldn't dirty
my hands.
Ryan: Really?
Because I would.
Donald: It's not
your fight, Pal.
Kendall: I -- I didn't even
see him come in.
Donald: So, Erica,
what's the deal?
Your daughter was out partying
with a new girlfriend?
Bianca: No, it wasn't like --
Jack: Don't say a word
to this guy.
Erica: Bianca was injured.
Donald: Oh. Hello.
You didn't teach her that mixing
80-proof blood and gasoline is
a dangerous cocktail?
But of course, you know,
with your money and his power,
there's no rap Bianca can't
beat.
Bianca: Nobody is fixing this
for me!
Erica: Honey, you don't need
to talk to him.
Donald: Well, I'm going to be
watching what happens just
in case this incident starts
to disappear.
Erica: Well, we all know
you'll never let that happen,
not as long as you have a shovel
and a laptop.
Donald: Oh, come on.
Somebody's got to keep
you privileged characters
honest.
Jack: Yeah, yeah. You know --
Ryan: No, you know what?
Donald: Whoa, whoa --
Ryan: Let me. Allow me.
I need the exercise, Jack.
Donald: Hey, hey, don't do
anything you don't want to see
in print, big guy!
Ryan: Oh, "Ryan Lavery Rids
The Planet Of The Scum-Sucking
Leech."
Sounds pretty good to me, man.
[Ryan throws Donald out of Bianca's room - and the hospital]
Erica: How in the world did
he find us?
Jack: "How"?
Honey, there's not anybody --
Erica: I mean, your name
isn't even on the patients'
list.
Jack: There's not anybody
in town that doesn't
recognize you.
Erica: But who tipped
him off?
Jack: Who tipped him off?
You've got to be kidding --
you have no idea?
[Jack looks at Kendall]
Adam: You set us up!
Mia: No, I didn't.
Adam: You wheedled your way
into this house, you passed
yourself off as part of this
family.
Mia: If you think this was,
like, some plan or
something, no.
Adam: You're good, Mia.
You're good.
Posing as the faithful
doting sister and nurse,
manipulating my daughter
and my brother and his wife?
Mia: I care about all
of you.
Honestly, I do.
Adam: Yeah, you've exerted
a great deal of energy
positioning us for your little
con game.
Mia: Con?
It's true! My son is sick!
Adam: Yeah, borrowing money
so little Jimmy can get
an operation.
That plea was worn out before
movies talked!
Mia: Adam, I swear to you --
Adam: How convenient it all
is -- a little boy that nobody
knew about, the son that
nobody -- how stupid do
you think I am?
[Liza walks in]
Liza: Isn't that a dangerous
question to ask an honest woman?
Adam: I was asking Mia.
Liza: I don't think I like
the sound of any of this.
Adam: Darling, I'm sorry
if we disturbed you.
Why don't you go have breakfast
with Colby.
Liza: I heard you mention
Mia's baby.
Adam: You knew about --
Liza: Well, has something
happened to him?
Mia: Yes.
Adam: This is real? This --
Liza: What is it?
Adam: She said her son was
sick.
Why -- why wasn't I told?
I didn't know she had a son.
I assumed that she was after --
Liza: You --
you -- you assumed wrong.
Adam: Yes.
Well, Mia, I -- I guess I owe
you an apology.
I should have investigated
before I made accusations.
Liza: You do that next time.
Then you won't feel so foolish.
Adam: Well, I'll write
you a check.
$20,000 -- Was that it?
Be right back.
Mia: I didn't want to do
that.
I didn't want to ask him.
Liza: It's ok.
Mia: Thank you for
believing me.
I have absolutely no way
to prove to you that it's true.
Liza: Well, if all you wanted
was money, you could've taken
mine.
You had it weeks ago.
I hope your little boy will be
all right.
Well, can I trust the two
of you while I go and take
my medicine?
Adam: I think we'll be fine.
Adam: I do feel a little left
out of the loop.
I wish you'd have told me.
Mia: Well, if somebody came
to me with that story that
I just told you, I'd probably
think they were lying, too.
Adam: No, you probably
wouldn't.
Anyway, I'm sorry I put
you through that.
Mia: God, yeah.
I'd hate to be on your bad side.
Adam: Well, I don't think
you need to worry about that
anymore.
Here.
So, promise me one thing --
if you ever need me for anything
again, will you come to me right
away?
Mia: Yeah. Thank you.
Adam: Well, feel better?
[Adam and Mia hug and Hayley watches]
Mia: Yes. Thank you.
Thank you for everything.
Adam: I'm glad I could help.
Hayley: Hi, there.
Adam: Oh, hello Sweetheart.
Mia: Hi, Hayley.
Hayley: What's going on?
Adam: Oh, just some family
business.
Hayley: Well, that's great.
I'm family.
Fill me in.
Mia: Oh, your father is just
being an extremely generous,
wonderful --
Hayley: No, really. Really.
Really, what's going on?
Adam: Yes, I'm glad to see
you, too, Sweetheart.
Hayley: How's Liza?
I wanted to check on her.
Adam: She will be
overwhelmed.
Come -- come on, come on.
Hayley: Did you just give Mia
a check?
Did you?
[Hayley and Adam walk out of the room]
[Mia dials the phone]
[Phone rings]
Trey: Hello?
Mia: Trey, I got the money,
all of it.
Adam gave it to me.
Trey: That's great.
Meet me at the SOS in
20 minutes.
Mia: And you can get it
to William's parents, right?
He's going to be ok?
Trey: You bet, you bet.
You just saved his life.
Vanessa: Was that a woman
on the phone?
Trey: What difference does it
make?
Vanessa: Because my last
agent always put me first
no matter what.
And I will not tolerate,
you know, dalliances with little
chippy starlets.
Trey: You're the one and only
star I care to represent.
We have a deal now, don't we?
I'm going to make sure you go
free.
Vanessa: Yes.
You work your magic,
Shecky, because I have to be
free to accept roles whenever
and wherever offered.
Erica: Jack, could I please
speak to you in private?
Jack: You most certainly
could.
Erica: Thank you.
Jack: What is with you?
You know that Kendall was
the one that sicced that
muckraker on us.
Erica: Jack, please don't do
that.
Please don't make accusations
when you don't have evidence
to back them up.
Jack: What?
What are you trying to pull
here?
Erica: What are you talking
about?
Jack: I'm talking about all
this chummy, chummy,
chummy stuff with Kendall.
Oh, wait a minute.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What have you got planned
for her?
Erica: Nothing.
Jack: That's the right
answer.
Especially if it's something
illegal, I don't want to hear
about it because I don't want
to have to prosecute you again.
Erica: Jack --
Jack: What?
Erica: There is nothing
illegal, and I have everything
under control.
Jack: Now I'm frightened.
Thanks.
Kendall: You know,
Bianca's been through enough
as it is.
She didn't need that scene
in there.
Ryan: Stop beating yourself
up, ok?
Stop.
Kendall: You know what?
It's taken a long time,
but I think -- I think I finally
understand Erica and Bianca.
[Kendall's wicked little daydream]
[An officer handcuffs Bianca]
Bianca: What are you doing?
Officer: Come on.
Bianca: No!
Officer: Just calm down.
Bianca: What are you doing?
Mom!
Erica: No!
Don't you touch her!
Officer: She's under arrest,
Ma'am.
Bianca: No, Mommy!
Please don't let him arrest me,
please!
Erica: You can't arrest
my daughter.
You call Jackson Montgomery.
He's the district attorney.
He'll fix this.
Officer: He was removed
from office this morning.
Erica: What?
Jack Montgomery lost his job?
Well, then, you call Derek Frye.
I've known him for years.
Bianca: No, you can't
arrest me!
Erica: You can't arrest her!
Look, I need a bodyguard.
Come to work for me.
I'll pay you $500,000 a year.
Officer: That sounds like
a bribe.
Erica: No, no, no,
it's just a job offer.
And then you'd be so surprised
about all the benefits you'd
have on my payroll.
What are you doing?
[The officer handcuffs Erica]
Officer: You have the right
to remain silent.
Bianca: No!
Officer: Anything you say can
and will be used against
you in a court of law.
Eric no, you can't do this!
Officer: You have the right
to have an attorney present.
Erica: No!
Officer: If you cannot afford
an attorney, you'll be appointed
one by the court free of charge.
Do you understand?
Erica: No!
Bianca: No!
Erica: No!
Kendall: What a picture.
Ryan: What? What?
Kendall: You. You.
You throwing that lowlife Donald
Steele out on his rear.
It was great.
Ryan: Yeah.
Kendall: It was great.
Ryan: Well, you know --
Kendall: Erica, are you ok?
Erica: Barely.
Kendall: I'm so sorry
you and Bianca had to deal
with that creep.
I didn't even see him come in.
Erica: No, no, none
of us did.
Ryan, I thank you for getting
rid of him.
Ryan: Hey, my pleasure,
believe me.
Kendall: How could that leech
pounce on Bianca at a time like
this?
Erica: Yeah.
It's really amazing how few
people have a conscience.
Ryan: If you want to go back
inside with her, we can stand
guard out here.
Kendall: Yeah, only this time
we'll be a lot more alert.
Erica: Well, I can't tell
you how really, really confident
that makes me feel.
[Erica 'dreams' her own little wicked scheme]
Chris: It's done.
Erica: Well?
Chris: I made sure she got
on the bus and I followed it all
the way to the state line
myself.
Erica: Oh!
Bianca: Oh!
Sayonara, Kendall, and good
riddance.
Erica: Oh, I just knew
she was gone.
You know, I felt the atmosphere
was lighter and the day is
sunnier.
Bianca: Mom, you were
so right about Kendall.
She's poison.
Chris: And I'm sorry I ever
doubted you, Sweetheart.
Erica: Oh, just thank God
she's gone.
Chris: Amen
[Erica smiles at her daydream]
Erica: Soon, Kendall.
Soon.
Leo: Greenlee and I are
getting married.
Vanessa: Oh, no, that tired
old plot.
Leo: Look, I know that
you hate it, Mother, but it
works for us.
Vanessa: Well, that's what
you think, but I think the whole
second act needs a total,
drastic revision.
Leo: But listen to me,
you whacked out wannabe.
Vanessa: Where is that --
Leo: All right, don't mess
with me.
Shut up!
Vanessa: But --
Leo: I'm not playing
your little game anymore.
Shut up.
I'm seriously warning you,
if you try to hurt Greenlee
or you try to screw up
my marriage, I will make sure
that you are tried and
convicted.
Do you hear me?
Vanessa: Oh, please,
Sweetheart.
Courtroom dramas were never
your best suit.
Leo: Ok, then I guess I'll
take a page out of your book,
Mother.
Ok, I will lie on the stand
if I have to, but you will end
up behind bars.
Do you hear me?
Vanessa: What?
Anything for this Greenlee?
Is that it?
Leo: Yes, "anything for this
Greenlee."
And if your attorney tries
to pull off some miracle
and you avoid prison,
I will send you to hell myself.
I will kill you if I have to.
Vanessa: Oh --
please, you're just not
the crazed killer type.
You ought to stick to those
screwball comedy things you do.
Leo: I had you in my sights
before, Vanessa.
Vanessa: And couldn't pull
it off.
Leo: When you had that knife
to Greenlee's throat,
I knew right there that
if I ever had the chance to pull
the trigger on you again
I would, and I would enjoy it.
You'd be smart not to test me.
[Simone, Greenlee and Roger look through catalogs]
Simone: Oh, it's too
nun-like.
Greenlee: Daddy?
Roger: Well, it's not like
any nun I ever saw, but what do
I know?
Greenlee: It's so not me.
Find anything we should see?
Roger: Yeah, you know, if I'm
going to contribute anything
to this wedding, I'm going
to have to learn ice sculpting. ice I can afford.
Greenlee: Well, there are
other ways you can contribute.
Roger: Oh, I wish there were,
Honey, but with my situation
the way it is --
Greenlee: I was hoping you'd
walk me down the aisle.
Roger: Me?
Really?
Greenlee: You are my father,
aren't you?
Roger: Your very proud father
gratefully accepts.
I'd be honored.
Greenlee: Honored?
I need a maid of honor.
Simone, would you stand up
for me?
Simone: Oh, Greenlee.
I mean, all right, you must have
some old friend you'd --
Greenlee: No, no, I'm not
exactly drowning in girlfriends.
Besides, I mean, you are part
of the reason that Leo and I are
back together.
Simone: Really?
Roger: What exactly did
you do?
Simone: Oh, it wasn't all
that much.
Greenlee: Simone told me that
Leo turned down the book offer.
Roger: Leo's a writer?
Greenlee: No, no.
He and Simone were going
to write one together.
You know, "Son of Proteus:
The Inside Scoop."
Simone: Yeah, something like
that.
Roger: Sounds like it could
sell.
Why did he decide against it?
Greenlee: He didn't want me
to have to relive the trauma.
That's when I knew Leo loved me
more than anything in the world.
Simone: Yeah.
Lucky you.
Greenlee: But it was a bad
break for Simone.
Simone: Yeah.
Greenlee: The book would have
been great for her.
Simone: Something will
come up.
Roger: It always does,
doesn't it?
[Phone rings]
Greenlee: Hello?
Erica: Greenlee, where have
you been?
I've been trying to get
to you all morning.
Greenlee: Erica, I've been
busy getting engaged.
Erica: Engaged?
To whom?
Greenlee: Leo, of course.
Erica: You know what,
Greenlee, I don't have time
for all your romantic ups
and downs.
I need you at the hospital.
Greenlee: Excuse me?
Erica: Now.
Greenlee: The hospital --
Erica, who's in the --
Greenlee: She hung up on me.
Simone: So, forget it.
Greenlee: You know,
I am so sick of Erica treating
me like I'm some flunky,
like my life is completely
beneath her notice.
Roger: You know, if want
to do battle with Erica,
Simone and I would be happy
to look through these caring
books for you.
Wouldn't we, Simone?
Greenlee: Would you?
Dealing with her majesty
shouldn't take too long.
Ok, find out when they can meet
with me and give me a tasting
sampler, ok?
Roger: Great.
Simone: Ok.
Greenlee: Thank you.
[Greenlee rushes out the door]
Simone: I can't believe
you just did that.
Chris: Donald Steele.
What a parasite.
Erica: Well, Bianca stood up
to him beautifully.
It's just that now it's all
hitting her, you know.
She's going to have to deal
with the courts.
Chris: Well, why don't we --
let's take her out to dinner
tonight.
Why don't we cheer her up?
Erica: I'm just not so sure,
you know, that she'll feel up
to it.
Chris: Tell her -- you know
what?
Tell her that it's an unofficial
family night.
Hey, you guys want to go
to dinner with us tonight?
My treat.
Ryan: Yeah.
Kendall: Yeah, sure.
I'm available.
Unless we'd be intruding.
Erica: Of course not.
Intruding? No, no.
We're all in this together.
Kendall: It feels so good
to hear you say that.
Chris: And I'll second that.
Ryan: Yeah, we should go out
and celebrate the new peace
treaty.
Erica: Ok, I'll go ask
Bianca.
Kendall: I hope she'll
say yes.
Erica: Kendall, actually,
I have to speak to you about
Enchantment.
Ryan: Kendall, Chris and I
are going to go get
my motorcycle at Bodner's
filling station.
I'll see you later?
Kendall: Oh, yeah.
See you later.
Chris: Tell Bianca that
she can even pick out
the restaurant.
Erica: Ok.
Erica: Actually, this will be a lot
easier with them out of the way.
Kendall: Erica, what is it?
Erica: It is something
so important, so immense that
I just don't have anyone to turn
to, anyone I can trust,
except you.
[Mia looks at the check Adam gave her]
Mia: Wow.
[Mia turns around and Hayley is standing right behind her - when Mia tries to go around her Hayley moves
in her way and stops her]
Excuse me.
Hayley: Oh, I will just
as soon as you explain to me
what is going on.
Mia: I don't understand.
Hayley: Neither do I,
and I don't believe one word
of your story because it does
not make sense.
So before you cha-cha on out
of here with that big chunk
of Chandler change, you are
going to explain to me step
by step about this business
transaction.
[At SOS]
Trey: Hi.
Mateo: Hey.
Trey: How's business?
Mateo: It's great.
You?
Trey: Can't complain.
Mateo: Oh, just wait.
Trey: For what?
Mateo: If I were you,
I'd cash in.
See, you think you're going
to help Vanessa Cortlandt get
away with murder, and I'm not
going to let you.
Vanessa: Nice work,
Sweetheart.
I mean, bravo.
I'm a tough audience,
but you almost had me
believing it.
Leo: I will do it
if you force me to.
Vanessa: Well, I know that
you'll give it your best intention.
I know you'll give it your best
shot, Darling, but if you do
fail, don't worry, I'll be right
there for you because we're
buddies.
Leo: I'm not going to fail.
I'm going to marry Greenlee,
and I'm going to keep her safe.
[Leo signals the guard to open the door and leaves Vanessa alone]
Vanessa: Leo!
Leo!
Haven't you learned one bloody
thing from me all these years?
You never give your mark
the plan.
Besides, I could never respect
myself if I let Greenlee
Dearest live a happy ever after,
or live at all, for that matter.
Simone: How could that be
more awkward?
Roger: Well, you're free
to go, although I'd love
your company here.
Simone: Greenlee didn't
notice anything?
Roger: Anything like what?
Like how much I wanted to do
this?
[Roger grabs Simone and kisses her]
Erica: I can trust you,
can't I?
Kendall: Erica, you can trust
me with your life.
Erica: That's about what
this is.
Kendall: Erica, what is it?
Erica: It's Greenlee Smythe.
You have got to help me
stop her.
[Greenlee walks up to Erica and Kendall after hearing what Erica said]
Greenlee: Stop me?
From doing what?
ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Mia: Get out of my way or I'm
going to walk all over you.
Roger: One night
with you wasn't enough.
Can this be our secret?
Ryan: Way to go, Kendall.
You are so busted.
Erica: This is
working exactly as I had
planned.
Greenlee: Not quite, Erica.
Not quite.
