Mateo: You are so finished.
Hayley: Why do I play this
game with you?
You can't spell.
Mateo: Just go.
Hayley: Oh, fine.
E, E.
Mateo: E?
Hayley: Yeah.
Mateo: Is that your final
answer?
You're done.
You are so dead.
This is little Hayley hanging
by a rope.
Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Hayley: Very funny.
What's the word?
Mateo: What do you mean,
what's the word?
Boomerang.
N, G.
B-o-o-m-a-r-a-n-g.
Hayley: Oh, ok, that's not
how you spell "boomerang."
That is an E.
That should be an E there.
Mateo: No.
Hayley: Boomerang.
Mateo: Why do I play hangman
with you?
Hayley: You can't spell!
Mateo: You can't spell.
Hayley: No, you can't
spell, honey.
Adrian: Wow.
You made palm trees with swizzle
sticks.
Tina: Oh, it's what I call
artistic talent.
Adrian: And what do you call
your drink?
Tina: The Desert Island.
Adrian: Any particular
reason?
Tina: Um, because after two
of these, you will think you're
on a desert island with
the hottest person in the world.
Adrian: Really?
Guess we'll have to see about
that.
Tina: Bottoms up.
Mateo: All right, how much do
you want to bet?
Hayley: Oh, I don't know,
$10 million.
Mateo: Ok.
I'll get the dictionary.
Hayley: Fine, get
the dictionary.
That's a good idea.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
Mateo: What, what?
Hayley: Let's ask Ryan.
He'll know.
Mateo: Ryan will know.
Ryan: Hey.
Hayley: Thank goodness you're
here.
Ryan: Oh, no.
Hayley: Very important.
How do you spell "boomerang"?
"Boomerang."
Ryan: Ah --
b-o-o-m-a --
Mateo: A!
Hayley: No!
Mateo: A!
Hayley: No!
Mateo: A!
Hayley: It's got an E in it.
Boo-mer-ang.
Mateo: I'll be getting
the checkbook, ok?
Hayley: You know what?
I'll make it out for
$50 million, if you get
the dictionary with it.
Mateo: Ok, all right,
all right.
[Hayley sighs]
Ryan: Slow night?
Hayley: Oh, yeah.
So, nice suit.
Ryan: Thank you.
Hayley: How'd it go
in New York?
I take it, pretty great.
Ryan: Yeah, it did.
It went amazing.
It went amazing, excuse me,
sorry.
They loved me, and I loved
them.
And I guess we're going to make
a lot of money.
Hayley: Yeah?
Ryan: Yeah.
Hayley: So I guess it's
working?
Ryan: Yeah I guess.
What, what? What?
What's working?
Hayley: Your plan to bury
yourself in work and forget all
about Gillian.
Ryan: Ah.
Oh, yeah.
Well, let me tell you,
it's really working.
There's probably about
10 minutes every hour that I'm
actually not thinking about
Gillian and the fact that this
month we would've been married
two years -- if it wasn't for me
screwing everything up.
Janet: You were wonderful.
Best model I've ever seen.
Amanda: Do you know why?
Right before the show,
Aunt Arlene said that when
they taped it, the whole country
might be watching and maybe even
Daddy, so I had to do my best.
Janet: Well, that's nice that
your Aunt Arlene reminded
you of that.
Amanda: She's nice all
the time, even though Hayley
wasn't very nice to her before
the show today.
Brooke: Knock, knock.
Janet: Hey!
Brooke: Hey, girls.
Janet: Look who's here.
Brooke: I'm back from China.
Greetings from China.
Janet: I sure didn't expect
you back so soon.
Brooke: Well, actually,
Laura was all better.
The back pain disappeared
completely when they performed
acupuncture.
Amanda: Does that mean
they stuck needles in her?
Brooke: It certainly does.
And they were very long.
Amanda: Ew.
Brooke: Ew.
But they didn't hurt.
Janet: How long have you been
back in town?
Brooke: I just got back.
I just arrived at the airport.
Janet: You haven't see n
Jamie yet?
Brooke: Well, actually,
I called Tad's, and he told me
that Jamie went to the movies
with Opal and Petey and Junior,
and I had a little gift
for Amanda, so I thought I would bring it by.
Janet: That was sweet.
Amanda: It's beautiful.
Thank you.
Brooke: You know who this is?
This is the heroine
from the Peking Opera.
And a little something for you.
Janet: Thank you.
It's gorgeous.
Amanda: I'm going to show
Aunt Arlene.
She'll love it.
Brooke: Arlene is upstairs?
Janet: Yeah, she came
for a visit.
I told her she could stay
with us.
Brooke: Janet, Arlene is
a real troublemaker.
Marian: I said I'm coming!
Wow.
Tad: Is Liza here?
Marian: No, of course
she isn't.
Why, should she be?
Was that part of the plan?
Tad: No, but if she's not
here with you, that means she's
up at the house alone with Adam.
And that scares me to death.
Got an awful lot riding on this
little coup.
She bails on me now, it's all
for nothing.
Marian: Well, what could be
going wrong, Tad?
Tad: Well, for one thing,
I've been calling her
for the last half-hour.
She won't pick up the damn
phone.
Marian: Well, is that it?
Tad: Yeah, that's it.
Think about it.
When we left her, she was there
waiting for Adam, right?
Now she can't answer the phone?
You know their history.
God only knows what kind of song
and dance Satan came home with.
Marian: Well, for goodness'
sakes, she's probably bathing
Colby or maybe she's taking
a bath herself.
There could be a dozen reasons
why she's not picking up
the phone, Tad.
Tad: Dozens, huh?
I got to find out what she's
up to.
Marian: Look, why don't
you just go on home?
Maybe this is for the best.
Tad: Oh, yeah, maybe.
For Adam.
Forget about it, Marian,
we've come too far to turn
back now.
Liza is not changing her mind.
Marian: But, Tad --
Liza: She woke up?
Adam: Yeah.
Ah, she was glad to see me.
I think she missed me while
I was gone.
Liza: Well, you didn't have
to bring her all the way down
here.
I'm sure she missed you.
Adam: Well, I wanted both
of you to see what I brought
back for her from South America.
Liza: Hmm, there goes
the rain forest.
Adam: Ha-ha.
Liza: How's my Sweetpea?
Adam: Here it is.
Liza: See?
Liza: Is this for real?
Liza: Maybe you'd like
to explain this?
Adam: It's exactly what it
says.
I'll translate it into legalese
tomorrow.
Liza: But why?
Adam: After you asked
for my power of attorney, I got
to thinking.
You were worried about
protecting Colby's interests
in the event that something
should happen to me.
Well, it's the next logical step
to wonder what would happen
to her if we were to both die.
And it would be usual
for her to be given to her next
of kin, which would be Stuart
and Marian, but why let a judge
decide that?
Liza: But you didn't --
you didn't write "Stuart
and Marian."
Adam: No, because I think
the people best suited to take
care of Colby if we are not here
would be Jake and Gillian.
Liza: I mean, that's not
what I would expect --
that you would choose Jake
and Gillian as legal guardians
in case anything happened to us.
Adam: Yes, well,
there was a time when
you felt -- and maybe
you still do --
that Jake would make a better
father for Colby than I would.
And you've always wanted Colby
to have the Martin influence
in her life.
Liza: You hate him.
Adam: About as much
as he hates me.
But Colby loves Jake.
And I'm sure he loves her.
So, I want to make this legal
so that we can work with Jake
and Gillian.
They can have access to Colby
and establish -- continue
a relationship with her.
Liza: Why? Why?
Why now?
I mean, nothing is going
to happen to us in the
foreseeable future.
Adam: I want to make
an overture to Jake.
I know he was hurt very badly
in all this.
And it is my fault.
Liza: I -- I don't think that
he'll fall for it, Adam.
Adam: Well, why would he turn
us down?
Even if he thinks my motives are
the worst, it gives him
an opportunity to be part
of Colby's life.
[Colby fusses]
Adam: Yes.
And eventually, the love we all
have for Colby will win out.
Liza: I don't want to talk
about it anymore.
Adam: Well, I hope you'll
think about it.
Liza: We just have a board
meeting at Chandler Enterprises
tonight first.
Why don't you think about that?
Adam: Right.
Of course.
When was the last time
you talked to Stuart?
Liza: Oh, he -- he knows what
he has to say.
Adam: Are you sure about
that?
Liza: Hi, baby.
Yes.
Come here.
Give me a hug.
Adam: I think maybe a dress
rehearsal for Stuart might be
in order.
Liza: No.
I don't want him to think that
we don't believe in him.
All he has to do is go and tell
the truth d tell him that
he signed those checks and gave
away those millions.
Adam: I don't know why my own
board of directors can't
determine that Stuart is
impersonating me.
Uh -- I'm going -- I'm going
to go find Stuart.
Liza: We should just meet him
there.
Adam: No, no.
I'm not going to grill him
or anything.
I just --
I just want to see him,
talk to him.
I won't be gone long.
Liza: Where'd he go?
Did he say "bye-bye"?
Ryan: So have you seen --
have you seen Gillian lately?
Hayley: Uh-uh. No.
I've been kind of caught up
with myself -- you know, my show
and my mother planning
my wedding.
Sorry.
Ryan: No, no, that's ok.
I'm sure she's all right,
you know?
Maybe she's heard from Jake.
Hayley: Oh, yes.
You're cured.
Ryan: Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I'm -- I'm cured.
Sure I am.
Ow, ow, ow!
I can't help it. Oh.
Greenlee: Hey. Hey. Hi, guys.
Ryan: Hey!
That was quick.
Greenlee: Oh, I jumped
in the car as soon as
you called.
How'd it go in New York?
Ryan: Whew.
Mateo: Ok.
All right, listen.
If you would admit that I'm
the master speller, I won't make
you pay me, all right?
And I'll make you your favorite
chicken quesadilla.
Hayley: Chicken?
Would that be chicken
with an E or chicken with an A?
Mateo: Yeah.
"Boomerang" does -- it has
actually does have an E in it.
You were --
Hayley: Of course it does.
Mateo: I know.
Hayley: You are the master
speller.
I bow.
Mateo: She's going to bow.
Hayley: Bowing.
Ryan: Oh.
Greenlee: Love is so droll
the second or third time around.
Anyway, so tell me everything
and admit nothing.
Ryan: Ok.
Well, we are like about as hot
as anybody could possibly be,
but the word is out right now
so I got to act really fast.
Otherwise, all the copycats will
be up and running any time soon.
Greenlee: Well, what's
slowing you down?
Ryan: Well, I need to --
I need to find my, like, my own
guide to oversee all
of the server, the web site,
the software, the hardware,
all of that.
Greenlee: But doesn't
Mr. Midori have his own
tech guys?
Ryan: Yeah, yeah.
He does, he does, but they're
like -- well, "It can't be done.
Can't be done."
I need somebody whose middle
name is "I'll find a way."
Greenlee: Well, you know,
you said you got to get started.
I mean, can you find someone who
will do what you want?
Ryan: Uh --
you see that guy behind the bar
with the yellow shirt
and the funny-looking straw?
Yeah.
Excuse me.
Tina: Hi, Ryan.
Ryan: I'm sorry to interrupt,
Mr. Sword.
I have a business proposition
for you.
Adrian: Not right now,
but thanks.
Ryan: No, I really --
I really think you should hear
me out.
Believe me, you should.
How do you feel about
moonlighting as my technical
advisor for my new web site?
We've all got -- we've all got
the financing settled and --
Adrian: Nope.
Sorry, but I've got more
important things to do
with my life.
Ryan: Really?
Adrian: Yeah.
Ryan: What could possibly be
more important than somebody's
dreams?
Janet: I think Arlene is
really trying to turn her life
around.
Brooke: Well, from everything
that Hayley has ever said,
Arlene doesn't want to change.
Janet: Well, maybe Hayley
isn't the best judge.
I myself don't have the luxury
of feeling superior
because of other people's
failings.
Arlene's been very good to me
and Amanda.
I, for one, am grateful
for that.
Brooke: I'm glad to hear it.
I -- you know, maybe she has
changed.
Janet: By the way,
I've been anxious to know
if you heard from Trevor when
you were in China.
Brooke: In China, no.
And I haven't had a chance
to check my mail at home yet.
Janet: Ever since you've been
gone, I've been thinking there
might be a letter at your office
or your home.
Brooke: You know, I'm sorry.
I know I had to leave
so quickly, but as soon as I get
home, I'll check my mail
and I'll let you know, ok?
Janet: I would appreciate it.
Brooke: Ok.
Amanda: Aunt Arlene's run away.
Janet: Let's just sit down.
I know you're disappointed
Arlene left.
Amanda: It's terrible when
people leave without saying
good-bye.
Janet: Maybe she was
in a rush -- she had to catch
a plane or a train or something.
Brooke: And you what?
I'm sure she'll call and tell
you where she is as soon as she,
you know, gets wherever she's
going.
Amanda: I know why she went
away.
Hayley was mean to her,
and she wouldn't let her be
in the mommy/daughter fashion
show.
Hayley was mean to her.
Let's call her.
You'll see.
Janet: Well, wait a minute,
Amanda.
We can't just call Hayley.
I mean, this is a personal
matter.
It's none of our business.
Amanda: Then you talk to her.
See if she knows where she is.
Janet: Ok.
Hi, Hayley, yeah, it's Janet.
Apparently Arlene has moved out
without telling us.
All of her clothes are gone
from the closet.
Hayley: That's great!
Lucky you, lucky me,
lucky everyone except
for the poor people she's
torturing right now.
Janet: So you don't know
where she went?
Amanda: Ask her if she told
her to leave town at
the TV station.
Janet: Amanda, that's enough.
Hayley: It sounds like
Amanda's taking it pretty bad.
Janet: Don't -- don't worry
about it.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Hayley: No, wait, Janet,
listen, listen --
why don't I come over there?
I mean, I'll talk to Amanda.
I'll answer any questions
she has.
Janet: That would be great.
Thanks.
Hayley: Ok.
I'll be right there.
Mateo: Where are we going?
Hayley: We are going
to Janet's.
Mateo: Well, why?
What's going on?
Hayley: The good news is
Arlene has disappeared.
Mateo: Oh. Gone?
Hayley: Gone!
Mateo: That's great news.
Well, what's the bad news?
Hayley: Amanda's blaming me
for it.
Mateo: Yeah.
Hayley: You got my thing?
Mateo: Yeah, I got
your thing.
Hey, Adrian.
Adrian: Yeah?
Mateo: Can you cover for me here?
Adrian: Sure, go ahead.
Mateo: All right.
Ryan: All right, so why does
reality always have to win?
When you stop dreaming, you stop
living.
You might as well just pack
it in.
Greenlee: That's right.
Ryan: This web site is
our dreams.
It's a way to make all
of our wishes come true
or at least as true as we can
make them.
Adrian: Come on, Ryan --
IncredibleDreams.Com.
Sounds just like another way
of making money.
Ryan: What's wrong with that?
Adrian: Well, maybe for you,
nothing.
But for me, I need more.
It's not enough.
Ryan: I agree. I agree.
Money has never interested me.
I really mean that.
But I'm not talking about
thousands of dollars here,
Adrian.
I'm talking about millions
of dollars.
That's power.
That's -- that's influence.
It's out there waiting for us,
and people are doing it every
single day, people that aren't
as intelligent as you and I.
Adrian: Yes, Palmer
Cortlandt, for example,
has billions.
What good does it do him?
Ryan: Palmer Cortlandt?
Palmer -- I mean, God,
that guy's always watching
his back.
He's always involved in hostile
takeovers, closing down
factories --
Greenlee's voice: I'll help
you change the world, Ryan.
I'll do anything, as long
as you make my dream come true.
[Greenlee daydreams about singing to Ryan - -]
Greenlee: You made me
love you
I didn't want to do it
I didn't want to do it
you made me want you
and all the time you knew it
I guess you always knew it
you made me happy
sometimes
you made me glad
but there were times, dear,
you made me feel so bad
you made me sigh
for I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to tell you
I want some love that's true
yes, I do
'deed I do
you know I do
give me, give me
give me, give me
what I cry for
you know you've got
the brand of kisses
that I die for
you know you made me
love you
Greenlee: You know
you made me
love
you - - -
Greenlee: You know,
sometimes you don't need money
to make a dream come true.
Isn't that right, Adrian?
Adrian: Ryan?
[Liza watches a tape of Leo confessing]
Liza: It's yours
if you tell me who else was
involved in trying to ruin
my mother besides Paolo
and Adam.
Leo: There was no one else.
Adam gave me my orders.
I found Paolo and hired him
to seduce your mother.
But I swear to you that I didn't
know he was going to drug her.
And I'm just thankful that
nothing else happened.
Liza: Thank you, Leo.
Tad: Liza.
Liza: What are you doing
here?
Adam shouldn't see you here.
Tad: No, no, he won't.
I just saw him walking towards
the gatehouse.
Liza: Oh, yeah, he's looking
for Stuart.
Tad: He came back
with a story, didn't he?
Huh? What did he say?
Liza: It doesn't matter what
he said.
Tad: Liza, if I walk
into a room and I find
you with that look in your eyes,
it matters, trust me.
Because right now, odds are
you're thinking, "gee,
maybe my husband isn't
a contemptible wretch after
all."
Right?
Liza: He gave me this.
Tad: So he wants Jake
and Gillian to be Colby's
guardians if you both die.
So what?
Liza: No, he wants them
to have access to her life,
to be with her as she grows up.
Tad: No. No. No, damn it.
You're not doing it this time.
I'm not going to let you do this
to us. We are going through with it,
Liza. We are going to take Adam down.
[Banging on door]
Marian: Oh, good lord.
And what now?
[Banging]
Marian: I'm coming.
I'm coming.
Adam.
Adam: Where is Stuart?
Marian: What do you want
with Stuart?
Adam: I just want to talk
to him.
Is he home?
Marian: No.
He's out.
He's -- he's sketching.
Adam: Marian, it's pitch
black out here.
How can he possibly be
sketching?
Marian: He's doing a kind
of a, you know, moonlight
on water, the play of light
and dark, and it's going to be
a fabulous series.
Can I get you some coffee, Adam?
Adam: No.
I just want to talk to Stuart.
Where is he sketching?
[Telephone rings]
Marian: Oh, excuse me.
Hello?
Stuart: Marian.
Marian: Oh, hi.
Uh -- how are you?
Stuart: I'm -- I'm fine.
Fine, Marian.
I'm still at the airport
because of bad weather.
My plane's delayed.
Marian: Really?
Oh.
Could you hang on for one
minute?
I'll -- I'll be right back.
This is a long-distance call,
Adam.
I have to take this call.
Adam: Where is Stuart?
Is he down by the lake?
Marian: Right, the lake.
That's exactly where he went.
Adam: You're so kind.
Marian: Bye.
Marian: Stuart, darling?
Stuart: I heard voices,
Marian.
Is --
did I interrupt something?
Marian: No. No, darling.
You didn't interrupt anything.
Stuart: You know, I don't
know when the plane is leaving.
I was -- I was thinking about
maybe I'd come home.
What do you think?
Marian: No, no, Stuart.
I think you should go
to St. Louis or maybe you should
just stay out there and wait
for your plane to take off.
That's what I think
you should do.
Stuart: Ok. Ok.
That's what I'll do, then.
Marian: Ok, darling.
I love you very much.
Have a safe flight.
Liza: You know, this is
my show.
Ok?
I was the one who invented this
scheme to punish Adam.
Tad: Yeah, that's right.
It's your show.
You got me into this.
So how ironic is it that I'm
compelled to remind
you of exactly what's at stake?
Liza: Wait a second.
I don't get a chance to just
rethink something?
I -- I don't get --
Tad: So I knew it.
I knew it.
I'm right. Admit it.
You're going to pull out.
Liza: No, I'm not.
But I'm thinking about Adam.
I'm thinking about what we're
doing to him.
Tad: Why?
Liza: What we're doing to him
is drastic.
He may never be the same.
Tad: Oh!
Liza: He would if he --
Tad: If what?
What?
What, if he's learned
his lesson?
He promises to be a good little
sociopath from here on out?
Come on, do you honestly think
that he considered you or Jake
or Marian or Stuart?
Liza, this is nothing.
He's playing you.
Liza: You didn't hear him.
He's extending an olive branch
to Jake.
Tad: No, no, no,
he's extending a joke.
It doesn't mean anything.
I know the way Adam thinks.
This is worthless until you're
both dead.
And after that, what does
he care if they raise Colby?
Liza: He wants them to be
in her life now, as
she grows up.
Tad: Yeah, yeah,
until he comes up with a way
to manipulate my brother
into throwing this back
in his face so Jake gets to be
the bad guy.
Liza: Did the guy think
of that?
Tad: All right, then, fine.
Then you know it's a trick!
Liza, you're doing it again,
Sweetheart.
You're grasping at any little
thing he shovels your way
as an excuse to stop.
And for the life of me,
you know, god only knows.
I don't understand why.
Liza: Because of my daughter.
When I hold her, Tad, I don't
feel the hate and the
resentment.
And if I don't have that, how am
I supposed to have revenge?
Tad: You just got to.
You've got to hang on to it
because Adam Chandler deserves
everything he's getting
and more.
Do I really have to go over
his resume one more time?
Liza: No, you don't.
I know what he's done.
I know what he's capable
of doing, but I've also always
thought that he could change.
And if I'm wrong --
Tad: If you're wrong,
what happens to Colby?
Hmm?
What happens to your daughter? Is he going to do to her what
he's done to Hayley and Skye
and Junior?
You trusted in his ability
to change once before,
and he violated you.
You almost didn't get over it.
Is there really one more
recovery left in there?
And does Colby have to grow up
suffering the same way?
Liza: Adam loves her.
Maybe her love
might change him.
Tad: Ok.
All right, listen.
Just for the sake of argument,
let's say we're dealing
with a new-and-improved
Adam, ok?
Is this the only legal piece
of paper he brought back
with him?
Where's the one that takes
effect while he's alive?
Liza: What do you mean?
Tad: Well, I mean, as long
as he's being so generous,
trying to make things easier
on Jake, did he sign the divorce
papers -- the one thing that
makes it easier for you?
Amanda: You have to find
her and apologize for what
you said at the TV station.
Then she'll come back.
Hayley: I'm sorry, Amanda.
I can't do that.
Amanda: What do you mean?
She's the only grownup who
understands me besides
my father.
Mateo: Amanda, I know it
seems like that, but there's
a whole lot people who care
about you who would do anything
they can for you.
Hayley: I want you to know,
I promise you, I didn't
say anything to her to make
her leave town.
Ok, I couldn't even if I wanted
to because she is an adult,
and she makes her own decisions.
Amanda: What if she went
to be with my daddy?
Janet: Sweetheart, I don't
think that's what happened.
If Arlene knew where your daddy
was, she would've told us.
Hayley: Yes.
I'm absolutely sure she would
have.
[Doorbell rings]
Amanda: Aunt Arlene!
Woman: Mrs. Dillon, I'm Linda
Myers and this is my son,
Christopher.
I'm sorry to have to tell
you this, but Christopher says
that it was Amanda who
punched him.
Janet: Well, that can't
be so.
Linda: Well, that's why I'm
here.
I wanted to get Amanda's side
of the story.
Janet: Amanda?
Is this true?
Adrian: The way you're
explaining it, there is
no downside.
We get rich by making people
happy.
Ryan: Yeah, that's about it.
Adrian: Come on, man.
You can't tell people you're
going to make all their dreams
come true.
You got to disappoint somebody.
I mean, come on.
Ok, say this poor slob logs
on and says that he wants
the next-door neighbor,
the gorgeous lady, to fall
in love with him.
Ryan: All right.
Adrian: How do we pull that
off without hypnosis?
Ryan: Ok, all right.
Adrian: Huh?
Ryan: All right, all right.
You're right, you're right.
I guess you can't make somebody
fall in love with you
if they really don't want to.
That's for sure.
Greenlee: That's for sure.
Ryan: But what we can do
is -- we can do our best to make
the fantasy have the chance,
at least have a chance
of coming true.
We can give them hope.
And if it still doesn't work out
for them, then at least
they know that they tried
and at least they know that
we helped them try.
And for that little bit of time,
that moment in time --
Singers: You are
my world
you are the one
that I come to
you are the shelter
I run to
to keep me safe
from the sun
you are my home
you are the love
that comes reaching
you are the touch
my eyes feeling
I look in your eyes
and I know
you're my home
you are my home
Adrian: Damn.
I don't know if it was
your pitch or Tina's drink.
But you've definitely sold me.
I'm your man.
Ryan: Yes!
Adrian, believe me, you will not
be disappointed, man.
You won't be.
Adrian: All right, all right
Janet: Come on in.
Janet: Amanda?
Amanda: Yes, I hit him.
And I'm not sorry.
Janet: Why did --
Linda: I knew my child
wouldn't lie to me.
Janet: Why did you feel
you had to hit him?
Amanda: He was making fun
of me.
Christopher: I did not.
Amanda: You did, too.
Janet: No, Amanda, stop.
Enough.
Linda: I was willing
to forget this whole thing
if your child was willing
to apologize to my son.
But I can see now that's not
going to happen.
Amanda: He should apologize
to me for calling me names.
Linda: You can be sure I will
bring this up to the school
principal.
He'll know the appropriate
measures to take with a violent
child.
Mateo: You know, maybe we're
not helping here right now.
Maybe we should --
Hayley: Yeah.
Brooke: You know, I think
Jamie's probably home
from the movies.
I'm going to go home and check
on him.
And I'll call you, ok?
And I'm sure everything is going
to work itself out, ok?
Janet: Thanks for
the presents.
Brooke: Ok.
Hayley: Amanda, don't worry
about this, ok?
Things get screwed up sometimes.
Everything will work itself out.
Mateo: See you, Rocky.
Janet: Bye.
Brooke: Boy, I had no idea.
Hayley: I'm telling you,
things are really screwed up
around here.
Janet: Amanda, I know
you were angry at him,
but you can't just go around
hitting people.
Why did you do that?
Amanda: Daddy told me not
to take any guff from those
jerks.
Ryan: Yes, that is so --
that is exactly it.
That's what I wanted.
That's right.
That's exactly it.
Greenlee: He really is
"Mr. I'll find a way."
Ryan: He is.
Tina: Desert Islands
for everyone.
Ryan: All right!
Tina: To celebrate Adrian's
new job.
Adrian: All right.
Tina: You are going to keep
your day job, aren't you?
Adrian: You better
believe it.
I got to pay the rent while I'm
dreaming.
Greenlee: Here's to making
our wildest dreams come true.
Adrian: All right.
[Ryan daydreams about Gillian]
[Music plays]
Singer: You are
the flame in my heart
you light my way in the dark
you are the ultimate star
Gillian: I'm proud of you,
Ryan. You're so successful.
You make so many people happy.
Ryan: It's all for you,
Princess.
Gillian: You're the most
wonderful man I've ever known.
Everything's perfect now.
Ryan: It would be perfect --
it would be perfect if we were
still together.
Gillian: What do you mean?
Ryan: Well, if we hadn't got
a divorce, if you hadn't married
somebody -- hadn't married
somebody else.
Gillian: Baby, you must be
having a horrible nightmare.
You are my husband.
Now and forever.
Ryan: That's all I ever
really wanted, Gillian.
Gillian: Dance with me.
And then make love to me all
night.
Singer: You make me
feel so divine
your soul and mine
are entwined
before you I was blind
but since I've opened my eyes
and with you
there's no disguise
so I could open up my mind
I always loved you
from the start
but I could not figure out
that I had to do it every day
so I put away the fight
now I'm going to live my life
giving you the most
in every way
oh, I belong to you
and you
you belong to me, too.
Greenlee: Cheers.
Tina and Adrian: Cheers.
Adrian: Come on.
Ryan: Cheers, cheers, cheers.
All right, to all of
our fantasies and --
Adrian: Big fantasies.
Ryan: Wishes and dreams
and everything.
Tina: Dreams.
Liza: No, Adam and I did not
talk about the divorce papers.
Tad: Yeah, well,
maybe you should.
Just try not to turn it
into good news.
Liza: Go away.
Tad: I can't.
Liza, I can't.
I'm not a bystander in this.
I put my marriage on the line
to make sure this thing goes off
as planned.
Liza: You know what?
I didn't make you do anything.
Tad: No.
You didn't.
I chose to do it willingly
because I owe it to everybody
I love, including you, to make
sure that Adam is stopped once
and for all.
Now, I am going to that board
meeting.
If you're there, I'll know
I have a partner, and we'll
finish this thing together.
If you don't have the stomach
for it, then I'm going to do
what I can do alone.
Liza: You got to go.
He can't find you here.
Tad: I am counting on you.
I want you to know that.
Liza: Tad, I want you to go.
Tad: Ok, just think about
this -- one more thing.
Adam loves Stuart like he loves
a piece of himself, but somehow
he was willing to destroy
his marriage and his happiness.
If you don't go through
with this, you and your daughter
will never be safe, ever.
Liza: Please.
Tad: And you know it.
Adam: Liza.
Liza: Yes, what is it?
Adam: I've looked everywhere
for Stuart.
I think he's forgotten all about
the board meeting.
Liza: Oh, I -- I don't think
he would forget.
But maybe you should go with me
to Chandler Enterprises just
in case.
Adam: Oh, yes.
If Stuart can't defend me,
then I can certainly take care
of myself.
Liza: Yes.
You'll have to do that.
Let's go.
Adam: Yeah.
Janet: Well, I'm sure
your daddy never told you to hit
anyone.
Amanda: Well, he said there's
a lot of people out there who
want to hurt you and the only
way to stop them is to hurt them
first.
Can I play with my doll now?
Janet: Of course, sweetheart.
Go ahead.
I'll be up in a minute.
Oh, God
.
Image: Way to go, Amanda.
Janet: Not you.
Go away!
Image: Looks like the little
angel's going to take after
her mother.
Adrian: So you going to be
at the community center
tomorrow?
Tina: Yes.
Adrian: You need any help?
Tina: Sure.
But aren't you too busy
with your big, important job
and making web sites?
Adrian: All right, all right.
I'll make time.
Tina: I'm looking forward
to it.
Adrian: Good.
Ryan: Ok, I don't think I've
told this to you yet, but I owe
this all to you.
Greenlee: No, you did all
the work.
I'm just -- I'm just good
at spotting potential.
Ryan: Really? Well, you are the real magician
who has the real dreams.
Greenlee: Well, I try.
Ryan: Hmm.
Tad: Ladies and gentlemen,
I must apologize.
I know I promised that
I wouldn't come back here,
and I fully intended to keep
that promise.
But I cannot endure any more
of Adam chandler's harassment.
He's called my home.
He's threatened me and
my family.
I am telling you all this man is
mentally unstable.
He's got to be properly
restrained before he does damage
to himself or to others.
Adam: Has the meeting started
yet?
Secretary: Yes, Mr. Chandler.
Adam: Is my brother here?
Secretary: No.
Not yet, sir.
Adam: Would you give us
a moment, please?
Secretary: Sure.
Liza: You were right.
Stuart must have forgotten about
the board meeting.
Adam: Well, I'm capable
of pleading my own case.
Liza: Oh, I know you are.
But I just think it's best
if Stuart comes to your defense.
Adam: Well, he isn't here.
Liza: I know.
Well, you know, you and I are
the only ones that know that.
Adam: At are you saying?
Liza: Well --
I don't know.
What if you played Stuart
one more time?
It might make an impression
on the board members.
