David: You always think
the worst of me, Alex.
Alex: Yeah, but I'm so very
often right.
David: Fine.
What is it that you think that
I'm doing now?
Alex: I'm not sure.
All right.
Before Erica arrived and threw
her little tantrum, you were
saying that our relationship was
bound to change because of this
crisis that we're going through.
David: And that makes
you suspicious?
Alex: Since we're not
involved in anything vaguely
resembling a crisis,
frankly, yes, it did.
David: Maybe I overstated it.
I meant that we were working
on this Prion case together
and I believe that we're
at the point of making a medical
breakthrough.
Alex: All right.
So then when Erica got here
and she was obviously troubled
by the fact that we were out
here alone together, she asked
you to go with her and
you didn't.
You stayed with me.
Why?
David: Give me some credit,
Alex.
I brought you here to get some
fresh air.
You were upset.
Alex: I didn't need you,
David.
She clearly did.
David: Erica needed what
she always needs -- for me
to drop whatever I'm doing
to prove to her that she takes
precedence in my life.
I just refused to go another
round.
Alex: Ah.
So I was being used to help
extricate you from this
relationship with Erica.
You know what?
Break up with your girlfriend
on your own time.
David: I'm not trying
to break with up Erica.
I love her.
For your information, I asked
her to marry me just a few
days ago.
Alex: So you think that
by refusing to do what she asks,
you're going to make her less
needy?
David: I'm trying
to establish some boundaries
with Erica, to make her realize
that the world does not revolve
around her.
Alex: I don't think you'll
live long enough.
David: Very funny.
I know she's demanding,
and I would love to be able
to give her everything
I possibly can.
Alex: But?
David: But I simply cannot
cater to Erica's every whim.
I don't want that kind
of a relationship.
Is that the kind of relationship
you have with Edmund?
Alex: No, of course it isn't.
David: And how about
with Dimitri?
Would you have twisted yourself
into a pretzel for him?
Alex: If it could have saved
his life, yeah, I would have.
Dixie: Say that again.
Dimitri: I'm going to fight
this disease, and I want
to live.
Dixie: Are you sure?
Because if you do, you might
actually have a chance
at recovery.
Dimitri: From this moment on,
Dixie, it's a go.
Dixie: Really?
You're really ready
to cooperate?
Dimitri: Let's get David
in here right now.
Dixie: Ok.
I'm going to go see if he's
in his office.
Tad: After the fact, you go,
"wait a minute.
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
Who is this for?"
[Music plays]
Mateo: Times like this I'm
glad I own my own club.
Hayley: And why is that?
Mateo: Well, because I can
take my wife out onto
the dance floor -- my
dance floor -- and I can make
everyone jealous.
Hayley: Not that.
Mateo: And then when it's
time to close up, I can send
everybody home, except
for my wife, and lock the door
and then I can show her some
of my best moves.
Hayley: You might not have
happy feet for too much longer,
Gaucho.
Mateo: Oh, no, baby.
No, no, no.
Not even polka music can get me
down.
Hayley: All right,
try this on.
Mateo: Uh-huh.
Hayley: I invited Arlene here
today.
Mateo: Why?
I mean, Hayley, this --
your dad bought her her own bar,
a fully stocked bar where
she can drown her sorrows there.
Why does she have to come here?
Hayley: I know.
I've got to keep up this charade
like we're this big,
happy family so I can keep tabs
on my father.
Mateo: I thought you wanted
to brainstorm about "Wave."
Hayley: I do.
Mateo: Well, you better be
ready for input.
She's going to give it to us.
Hayley: Let her.
I've already got tremendous
ideas about how to keep
the younger audience interested,
something that'll make the show
really pop.
Mateo: Well, the only sound
of the pop that you're going
to be hearing is of the liquor
bottles when your mom gets here.
She's going to be popping them
open, drinking with both hands.
Bianca: So, whose cell phone
is this?
Greenlee: The cell phone
belongs to Ryan Lavery.
He said he was going outside
to make a phone call, so why
leave this behind?
Bianca: Beats me.
Greenlee: Unless he was not
making a phone call.
Becca: Whoo!
Leo: Hey, Bianca.
You having fun?
Bianca: Yes.
I have taken on a new challenge.
Greeny and I are getting to know
each other.
Greenlee: It's Greenlee.
Have you guys seen Gillian?
Becca: Last time I saw her,
she was on her way to
the bathroom.
Gillian: I don't know much
about business, but I can't see
how giving Greenlee stock
in the company is going to get
her out of your hair.
Ryan: Believe me, it will.
Gillian: Won't it just get
her more involved?
Like won't it entitle
her to attend meetings and make
decisions about
incredibledreams.Com?
Ryan: I'm only going to give
her a small, small sliver
of the company.
I mean, even though she didn't
want to be partner, the guy who
gave me the startup money
for the company thinks I should
acknowledge her contribution.
So I give her this, and then
she'll be out.
Gillian: Well, that just
doesn't make sense to me.
It's like giving a hamburger
to a tiger.
Won't it just make her hungrier
for more?
[Door rattles]
Greenlee: Is anyone in here?
Gillian, open up the door.
Gillian: It's Greenlee.
Hide, hide, hide
Greenlee: Open up the door.
Gillian: It's Greenlee.
Hide.
Quick, quick, quick.
Greenlee: Gillian?
Gillian, are you in there?
Gillian, open up the door.
Gillian: Sorry.
Greenlee: Why was the door
locked?
Gillian: Oh, it wasn't.
See, this door has been
sticking, and actually, the girl
who was in here before me had
to open up for me.
Greenlee: Have you seen Ryan?
Gillian: Ryan?
No. Why?
Greenlee: There's something
up with him.
He said he had to make
an important phone call,
but he left his cell phone
at the table.
Gillian: Well, maybe he has
two cell phones.
I mean, he is such a big shot
and all.
Greenlee: No, no, no,
he only has the one.
I'm sure of it.
Gillian: Well, Greenlee,
you're just going to have
to solve this whole mystery all
by yourself because worrying
about where Ryan is,
like, the last thing on my mind.
Greenlee: You can go.
I'll unstick the door
for the next girl who come in.
Gillian: Ow! Oh! Oh! Oh!
There's something in my eye.
Can you help me get it out?
Greenlee: Uh -- yeah.
Gillian: Oh.
Greenlee: You know,
maybe you're right about Ryan
being a big shot.
Incredibledreams is taking off
faster than we expected.
Gillian: Oh, that's --
really?
That's great.
Greenlee: Yeah, yeah.
It is for me.
I don't see anything.
I don't know if you heard,
but Ryan's giving me a big chunk
of the company.
Gillian: You're kidding.
Greenlee: Yeah, yeah, he just
told me.
He's making me one of
the principal stockholders.
I'm totally stoked.
Gillian: You know,
Greenlee, with your background
and everything, I'm really
surprised that you're getting
all excited about a few stocks.
Greenlee: But it's
so romantic.
I mean, just a few months ago,
this company was just a glint
in Ryan's eye.
And I nurtured it, helped him
flesh it out.
We spent so many all-nighters
together, just the two of us,
talking, planning.
Incredibledreams is really
our baby.
Hayley: I can't get over
it -- Bianca all grown up.
And so gorgeous, too.
Bianca: Thank you.
Congratulations on your wedding.
Mateo: Thank you very much.
Bianca: By the way, I wanted
to tell you that I'm a huge fan
of your show.
It's the bomb.
Hayley and Mateo: The bomb!
Hayley: Oh, good.
Mateo: Since you're a fan,
maybe you can help us out.
Bianca: Sure. With what?
Hayley: Show ideas.
We're trying to think of,
you know, what people would like
to see done on the show.
I mean, anything at all.
Just let your mind go.
Bianca: Ok, well,
if something should hit me,
I will be sure to let you know.
Hayley: Great.
Did you come here with your mom?
Bianca: I did.
She was here before, but she had
to take off.
She had something to take
care of.
Mateo: Well, listen,
if you want me to introduce
you to somebody --
Bianca: Oh, no, that's ok.
I appreciate it.
Actually, I'm here hanging out
with my Mom's houseguest,
Leo du Pres.
Although he does look a little
busy right now.
Becca: Come on.
Come on, it's easy.
Try it.
Leo: Like that?
No?
Becca: Close. No.
Ok, it's slow, quick, quick,
slow, quick, quick --
come towards me --
slow --
Leo: I saw "Riverdance."
Shouldn't be that hard.
Becca: It's a little bit
different.
This is the Cha-Cha.
Slow, quick, quick,
slow, quick, quick --
Leo: Oh, you are
an incredible dancer, Becca.
Becca: Why, thank you.
Leo: Hey.
Becca: Slow --
Leo: That's your cue to tell
me how good I am.
Becca: Oh.
You're a unique dancer.
Leo: That means I'm hopeless.
Becca: No. No.
If I can teach my brothers
to dance, I can definitely teach
you, ok?
Just don't expect 'NSync
to call, ok?
Oh!
Leo: They should be so lucky.
Becca: Uh-huh.
Arlene: Hey, Mateo.
Mateo: Mom!
Arlene: Hi, Sweetie.
What's with the glasses?
Hayley: Pinkeye.
Arlene: You know, you kids
have got it made.
Our joint never gets this
lively.
Even happy hour's like a wake.
Hayley: Mom, you remember
Bianca Montgomery, Erica's
daughter?
Arlene: Oh, how about that.
I would never have picked
you as Erica's daughter.
Bianca: Yeah, well, I take
after my dad.
Arlene: Yeah, I guess.
Oh, Sweetie, I'm so glad
you called.
I mean, managing Adam's bar is
driving me stir-crazy, no pun
intended.
Bianca: Is that Adam
Chandler?
Arlene: I always forget that
my husband is a celebrity.
That's right, pumpkin, the
Adam Chandler.
Bianca: Your husband?
Arlene: Mm-hmm.
Oh, right.
Well, your mother was married
to him once, too.
Bianca: Twice, actually.
Arlene: I think my Adam has
been -- well, he's the only
person in Pine Valley who's been
down that aisle more than Erica.
And his marriages never lasted,
either, until -- well,
until now.
Dixie: Hey!
What a surprise.
Tad: Hey, sweetheart!
Dixie: When did you get back
from New York?
Tad: Oh, come to Poppy.
Gorgeous, gorgeous.
10 Minutes ago.
When I didn't get you
on the phone at home, I figured
I'd just have the driver drop us
here.
Dixie: Oh, is everything ok?
Did you talk to Jamie?
Tad: Yeah -- no.
No, I talked to Brooke,
I talked to Jamie.
Everything is fine.
Thank God he takes after
his old man.
It takes more than a baseball
bat to put a dent in that thick
skull.
Dixie: Yeah, can you believe
that.
How was your trip?
Liza: Oh, it couldn't have
been better.
Tad: Oh, great, terrific.
Dixie: Oh, good.
Was New York great?
Did you have everybody
at your feet?
Tad: Well, it certainly
seemed like we had thumbs up
everywhere we turned.
Liza: Mm-hmm, the architects
have put aside all their plans
and exclusively are working
on Col-Mar tower.
Tad: You wouldn't believe it.
The original developer ran out
of funding right after
they poured the foundation.
Liza: And we stepped it.
Tad: So, consequently,
we're, like, two months ahead.
Dixie: Wow.
Liza: We've saved time,
we've saved money.
Tad: It's perfect.
And we're going to celebrate.
Liza: Yeah.
Dixie: Oh.
Tad: We're going to meet
Frank, our contractor,
over at S.O.S.
You want to come?
Dixie: Oh, you know, I would
love to, but I can't.
I'm stuck.
Tad: Come on, why not?
Dixie: I -- David has
a patient that's in a very
vulnerable stage right now,
and I just want to be here
to help, you know?
Tad: Honey, last time
I checked, you were
an administrative assistant.
You're not a nurse.
Dixie: Well, you'd be
surprised how much a kind voice
can help, especially where
there's a team of doctors,
you know, coordinating.
Tad: But this is really big,
though.
Come on.
Dixie: No, I --
Tad: Are you sure you can't,
you know, get a candy striper
to step in and come for us,
just for a little while?
Dixie: No, I'm sorry,
I can't.
But you know what I'll do?
I'll meet you there.
I'll meet you there.
Tad: Ok.
Liza: We'll see you there.
Tad: All right.
Dixie: Yeah, I won't be long.
Dimitri: Come on.
So, did you find him?
Dixie: No.
He was not in his office.
Dimitri: Dixie, I really have
to find him.
I've got to let him know that
I'm ready to do all that he asks
of me.
Dixie: All right.
Well, let's start making some
calls.
Dimitri: Calls.
Dixie: Here's the telephone.
Dimitri: Yes.
David: I assure you,
Alex, I'm not using
you to influence my relationship
with Erica one way or the other.
Alex: Well, I'm glad
to hear it.
David: Yeah.
All I need from you is your help
with this Stanford case.
Prion is your area of expertise,
not mine.
You know, it really has gotten
cold for August.
Maybe there's a storm coming in.
Here.
Alex: No, no, no.
David: Come on, take it.
It's dropped about 15 degrees
since we've been out here.
You know something?
I'm going to go get a drink
of water from the fountain.
I'll be back in a minute.
Alex: Ok.
[Telephone rings]
Alex: Oh, David?
[Ring]
Alex: David --
hello?
David Hayward's jacket.
Alex: Hello?
Is someone there?
Dixie: Hello?
Alex: Hello?
Dixie: Oh -- Alex, hi.
It's Dixie.
Alex: David!
Hang on a sec.
Oh, David --
David: Yeah?
Alex: It's Dixie.
I answered for you.
I hope you don't mind.
David: Oh.
Yeah, no problem.
Hello, Dixie?
Dixie: David, hi.
It's Dixie.
Listen, Dimitri wants to see
you right away.
He says he's ready go get actively involved in
his recovery.
David: That's very good,
Dixie.
Thank you.
Alex: You have to go back
to the hospital?
David: No.
No, that was just Dixie.
She was letting me know that
she was leaving for the evening.
I'm going to go try and track
down Erica.
I'm sure she's cooled down
by now.
Alex: That's a very good
idea.
David: You need a lift
to the car?
Alex: No, thanks.
I'm going to stay out here
for a little longer.
David: All right.
You don't need this?
Alex: No.
You think we'll hear
from Stanford again tonight?
David: Maybe in the morning.
I wouldn't worry until then.
Alex: I can't help it.
The case reminds me so much
of Dimitri.
You think he has a wife,
a family?
David: The patient is
3,000 miles away, Alex,
and we're merely consulting.
I'll see you in the morning.
Alex: Ok.
Leo: I have to sit down.
I can't take another Mambo,
Cha-Cha, Merengue.
Becca: Oh, come on.
We are just getting warmed up.
Leo: Oh, is that what
you call it?
Becca: Uh-huh.
Liza: Oh, there's Frank.
Frank: Hey.
Liza: Hi.
Frank: You two don't mess
around.
I've never seen a project get
off the ground as fast as this
Col-Mar tower.
You are a contractor's dream.
Liza: Yeah, well, when can
you take over?
Frank: Well, how does
tomorrow sound?
I mean, there's still one permit
I need to secure, but
the steelworkers can get going
right away.
I can have crews of guys
swarming all over that
foundation by 10:00 A.M.
Tad: That's excellent.
That's amazing.
Liza: Yeah.
Tad: Listen, do you have any
idea how long each phase
of the construction's actually
going to take?
Frank: I've already roughed
out a schedule.
You want me to go over it
with you?
Tad: Oh, by all means.
Frank: Ok.
Liza: Well, you know,
before we get started,
maybe we should have a toast
to celebrate.
Tad: Good idea.
Liza: You want something?
Frank: Whatever's on tap
sounds good to me.
Tad: Same for me.
Liza: Ok, coming right up.
Frank: Great.
Hayley: So, what's the word
on Adam?
Arlene: Not a peep.
I should never have let him go
on that fishing trip.
Take it from me, Sweetie,
if you got a man on a leash,
don't ever let him go sniffing
around in the wilderness.
I'll be right back.
Arlene: Ooh, ooh.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't looking where I was
going.
I was reading Adam's letter.
Poor thing.
He's written me every day since
he's been gone.
He must be lonely.
Liza: Well, he could always
cuddle up to one of those dead
trout of his.
Beats what he has waiting
for him at home.
Arlene: Well, not to hear him
tell it.
"The scenery is beautiful,
the fish are biting, but I miss
you, Arlene, especially
at night.
I lie in bed thinking about
our night in the hotel room
in New York wrapped in the" --
Well, better stop there.
Gets X-rated.
Greenlee: That Bianca seems
laid-back, not at all like
her mom.
Gillian: Yeah, I like her.
Greenlee: Hmm. Whatever.
So, how's the Jake front?
Have you heard anything about
his whereabouts?
Gillian: No, and it's none
of your business, Greenlee
Greenlee: All right.
Pardon me for caring about
your poor lost husband.
Gillian: Just forget it, ok?
Bianca, no.
It's broken.
Gillian: You shouldn't use
that one.
It's broken.
Greenlee: You're like
the terminator of the bathroom,
you know that, Gillian?
Bianca: It seems to be
working now.
Gillian: Ok.
I guess it was the other one,
then.
Greenlee: If you see Ryan,
will you tell him that I have
his cell phone?
Bianca: The coast is clear.
Ryan: Thank you
for not giving me away.
I wish I could explain what
I was doing in there,
but I really can't.
Bianca: Well, no one will
hear it from me.
Ryan: Could I ask you another
favor?
Bianca: Sure.
Ryan: Do you have a pen?
Bianca: Yeah, I do.
Ryan: If I write a note,
would you do me a favor and slip
it to Gillian?
Bianca: Oh, sure.
Ryan: You, my dear,
are an angel.
Bianca: Um -- one question.
How do you intend to get out
of here?
Ryan: Same way I came in.
Mateo: Aha!
Hayley: Aha!
Mateo: You guys looked good
there, man.
A little dangerous on
the dance floor.
Leo: Becca was.
I was just trying to keep up.
Hayley: The important thing,
Leo, is that you're teachable.
Becca: Oh, he's definitely
that.
Hayley: Hmm.
Well, how would you like to put
that to the test?
Becca: What do you mean?
Hayley: We, we were tossing
around some ideas for "Wave."
And how would you and Leo like
to be a part of a really great
show?
Becca: Us?
Leo: If you mean dancing live
on television, you can
forget it.
I would never dance live
on television.
Hayley: Guaranteed --
no dancing.
Mateo: Listen, it's going
to be one of those reality-based
shows about relationships.
Hayley: Yeah.
You basically come on and talk
about each other and yourselves
and what you mean to each other.
Very loose, very informal.
Mateo: And we have a panel
of people about, you know,
your age that -- they predict
where your relationship is
going, you know?
Leo: Well, Becca and I aren't
even really considered a couple
yet.
Hayley: That doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter what stage
of the game you're in.
The important thing is that it's
a chance for people to talk
about what makes a good
relationship.
Leo: And what if your panel
tells us to get as far away
from each other as possible?
Mateo: Man, it's just
an opinion.
It's just their opinion.
You don't have to listen
to them.
Becca: It sounds like
a really fun show, but I really
don't want to do it.
Hayley: Oh, come on.
Why not?
Becca: Well, with this
web site thing, I've had enough
of my laundry aired
in the public lately.
Greenlee: Where have
you been?
Ryan: I told you I had
a phone call to make.
But I was looking for a pay
phone because my cell phone's
missing, so -- I think someone
stole it.
Greenlee: You mean this?
Ryan: Look at that.
Where was that?
Greenlee: It was
on the table.
You're lucky to have me around.
Ryan: Yeah, very lucky.
Tad: Ryan.
Ryan: Tad.
Tad: Greenlee.
Greenlee: Hi.
Ryan: I thought you were
in New York.
Tad: I was.
We just got back.
I wanted to let you know we're
going to put the Col-Mar tower
on the fast track, so that means
you're going to be able to get
a look at your office space
sooner than anybody anticipated.
Ryan: Oh, that's great.
We want to get in there as soon
as we can.
Greenlee: See?
I'm your good luck charm.
You give me stock, things start
happening.
Ryan: Yeah.
Tad: Liza and I are over
there having a drink
with our contractor if you want
to stop by and say hello.
Ryan: I would.
I would, but I got some more
calls to make.
When can I see the site?
Tad: Sometime this week.
Ryan: Ok.
Thanks.
Greenlee: More calls, huh?
Ryan: Yeah, yeah.
Well, you know, the web's open
24/7, and I'm on top it,
thanks to you.
I'll see you.
Liza: So, I guess if you come
under the schedule, then Tad
and I can probably come up
with some sort of a bonus.
Frank: Oh, that'll be great.
Liza: So, are you married?
Frank: Divorced. You?
Liza: Same boat.
Bianca: Hey, Gillian,
can I talk to you for a minute?
Gillian: Listen, I really
wanted to apologize for what
happened in the bathroom,
that whole scene.
Bianca: Oh, no, no, no.
Forget it.
That Greenlee is some piece
of work.
Gillian: Yeah.
Yeah, she really works
on my nerves.
But thank you again.
Bianca: Oh, no problem.
Listen, after you left,
Ryan gave me this note for you.
Gillian: Oh.
Thanks.
Dimitri: It's all right.
It's not what you wanted to say.
What you wanted to say was that
I was cured, that you'd saved
me, and all was well.
Instead you had to tell me that
we're on to plan b.
And I'm sure it's a marvelous
plan and it'll do really good
and maybe there will be a plan c
or d or whatever.
It doesn't matter.
What you have given me --
you know, my life was over when
I came to you.
I was planning to go to Vadsel
and end it there.
I was.
I was.
So this --
sitting here with you --
it's a miracle.
But I don't -- I don't want
you to be hurt any more.
I don't want this to be harder
on you.
I'll find another doctor.
I will leave the country.
Alex: You can't.
Dimitri: It's all right.
Alex: No, it's not.
It won't help.
Don't you see?
You could go to Ethiopia.
You could go to the end
of the world, and I'd still stay
awake at night worrying
about you.
I love you.
It's too late.
Don't you see?
It's too late.
Dimitri: It's not.
It's not, Alex.
It's just begun.
It's just begun.
Alex: We had such little time
together.
[Telephone rings]
Alex: Hello.
Oh, hi, Edmund.
Hi.
How's Washington?
Yeah?
Did they ask you to run
for Senate yet?
Fools.
Oh, nothing.
I'm doing nothing.
Missing you.
When are you back?
Oh good.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Yeah.
It's good to hear your voice.
I love you, too.
Ok. Bye.
Dixie: Well, look what I have
for you -- a doctor and some lab
results.
David: So, Dixie tells me
you've found some motivation.
Dimitri: David, I will
finally do whatever you ask
of me.
Just make sure that it works
because I want my life back.
David: That's good to hear.
Let me see the lab results.
Dimitri: Is it good?
David: Extraordinary.
Better than I had hoped.
Dimitri: All right.
You're saying that if
your therapy works,
I'm going to live?
David: I'm saying that
our chances are better than
we had thought.
But there is something that
you need to agree to that
you may not like.
Hayley: Easy, Liza.
You're going to put out an eye.
Liza: I'll tell you what --
I'd like to poke somebody's
eye out.
Or something.
Hayley: Hmm.
Arlene?
Liza: Oh, gee, how did
you know?
Hayley: Relax.
My mother can get anybody's
blood pressure higher than three
pounds of salt.
I wouldn't worry if I were you,
Liza.
Whatever she's got going
on with Adam -- and I doubt
highly that it's marital
bliss -- won't last too much
longer.
It'll end abruptly as soon
as she starts cheating on him,
which is bound to happen as soon
as she sees a good-looking guy.
Trust me.
Her circuits melt.
She can't help herself.
Liza: Yeah, you're right.
Hayley: Where are you off to?
Liza: I'm going to go see
a man about a mission.
David: I would like to check
you into a hospital so that
we can administer the hormone
therapy intravenously over
the course of a few days.
Dimitri: That's it?
Find a hospital outside
of Pine Valley, and I'll do it.
David: Just like that?
Dimitri: Just like that.
David: All right,
Dixie, what have you done
to this man?
Dixie: Oh, don't look at me.
But I agree, he hardly seems
the same without the
pigheadedness.
David: Why don't we set
you up at Seaview.
Dimitri: Make the call.
David: Great.
Dixie, you can go.
I'm sure Tad is waiting.
Dixie: Well, I could stay.
I mean, I could make the phone
call, make sure that you get
into Seaview tonight.
David: Yes, you could.
Dixie: Well, then I'll stay.
Dimitri: I'd like
you to stay.
David: Thank you.
That would speed things up.
Frank: I worked with him
in an office complex --
[telephone rings]
Frank: Center City.
The guy's a great architect.
Tad: Hello.
Dixie, where are you?
Liza: A very attractive lady,
isn't she?
Frank: I'm sorry.
Was I being that obvious?
Liza: No, no.
You should -- you should go over
and talk to her.
Frank: Oh, no, no, no.
No, not tonight.
This is business.
Liza: Oh, Frank, business is
over.
Get your butt in gear.
I insist.
Frank: All right.
Frank: Hello, beautiful.
Would you let me buy
you a drink?
Arlene: Why not?
I could use something cold.
It's suddenly gotten very hot
in here.
Hayley: Ok, "Wave" crew,
I have an announcement to make.
Do not report to the studio
tomorrow.
Instead, go directly
to Willow Lake, where WRCW
and "Wave" and me are hosting
a tremendous, beautiful barbecue
at the beach.
Mateo: I already invited
my whole staff.
Just bring yourselves,
the towels, some suntan lotion,
and whomever floats your boat.
Hayley: And, Bianca,
please feel free to come.
Bianca: Oh, I would love to,
but I'm sure that my mom has
something planned.
Hayley: Ok.
Leo: Free refills?
Thank you.
Sounds like fun, huh?
I'll be sharing a towel
with Becca.
And how do you plan on tricking
Ryan into coming?
You going to club him over
the head and drag him
to the beach by his hair?
Greenlee: Enjoy your little
frolic, Leo.
I've got more important things
to do, like running an internet
empire.
Leo: Greens, the only thing
you're running are mind games.
And Ryan seems to be immune
to them all.
Greenlee: Chew on this,
cabana boy -- I've slept
with Ryan.
When you see Becca in
her bathing suit tomorrow,
it'll be the closest you ever
see her with her clothes off.
Becca: Hey.
Is she ok?
Leo: Well, actually,
Greenlee's going through
a terrible tragedy in her life
right now -- somebody else is
happy.
Ryan: Hey.
You got my note.
Gillian: Yeah, Bianca was
really sweet.
Ryan: Listen, I know it's
dangerous for us to meet here
like this, but I had to ask
you -- in the bathroom,
when Greenlee asked you about
Jake, you really lost it.
Gillian: She keeps throwing
Jake in my face, and I can't
stand it.
Ryan: No, I know, but did Joe
say anything to you about Jake
to make you so upset?
Gillian: No.
No, it's not him.
Ryan, I just feel like such
a fraud.
I was sitting in this very park
and he poured his heart out
to me.
He's so worried about his son.
Ryan: I know it's rough
on him.
Gillian: He totally thinks
that I'm madly in love
with Jake.
And I do love him, but not
the way Ruth and Joe think I do.
I just feel like such
a hypocrite.
Ryan: I'm sorry, Princess.
Gillian: I came this close
to telling Joe everything.
Should I?
Is it right to keep the truth
from him this way?
Becca: Butter Almond,
I guess.
Leo: Yeah?
Becca: What about you?
Leo: I guess I would have
to go with Rum Raisin,
definitely.
Becca: Really?
Leo: Mm-hmm.
Becca: I would have taken
you for a chocolate cappuccino
frappuccino concoction.
Leo: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Finally.
Finally, a song that I can
dance to.
Come on.
Hayley: We have got to get
them on "Wave."
Arlene: I love the name
Frank.
Strong, direct.
It suits you.
Frank: Arlene.
That's a pretty name.
Is that southern?
Arlene: [Southern accent]
ooh.
I declare.
How observant you are.
Frank: See?
Arlene: [Normal voice]
except that I'm from the south
side of Chicago.
Although I've always depended
on the kindness of strong,
handsome strangers.
Frank: Well, hopefully
I won't be a stranger for too
long.
Arlene: A smooth talker, too.
Frank: Would you care
to dance, Arlene?
Arlene: I would love to.
Wait.
Hold on one second.
Arlene: You know,
Frank, I got to pass on that
dance.
I'm sorry.
See, I'm married.
And in a town like this,
that means that everybody's
watching all the time.
But luckily I'm a lot smarter
than those people.
Ryan: Listen, the last thing
that Joe needs to hear right now
is the truth about us.
It's just going to make
everything worse.
Gillian: Well, he's going
to hate me when he does
find out.
Ryan: I know, but you can't
tell him anything.
You have to wait and break it
to Jake first.
Gillian: Joe has just been
so kind to me.
He's treated me like a daughter.
And, Ryan, that feels wonderful.
I really wish I had a father
like Joe.
Ryan: I wish I had a father
like Dr. Martin, too.
Gillian: I just --
I just can't stand this anymore.
It's driving me crazy.
I just want it to be over.
Ryan: Me, too.
Me, too, me, too.
I wish there was something
I could do to make it easier,
believe me.
Gillian: I should go.
Dixie: Thank you very much.
Ok, Seaview has a private room
arranged for you, and
Dr. Silbert will be waiting
at the emergency room in a half
an hour.
David: Excellent.
We'll take my car.
I think you're going to be very
glad that you decided to do
this, Dimitri.
Dimitri: David, I want
you to know that either way this
turns out, I want to thank you.
Dixie: Are you sure that
you don't want to call Alex
first?
Dimitri: Dixie,
you know, I couldn't have done
this without you, the
encouragement that you've
given me.
But please, let's not talk about
that.
David: I'll respect
your wishes about this, Dimitri.
But Dixie has a point.
Letting Alex know would
certainly simplify matters.
Dixie: Yeah, and it could be
good for you -- for both
of you -- make things easier.
Dimitri: I don't have
the strength in me to handle all
of this.
Not yet.
Dixie: Well, how about when
you do have the strength?
Are you going to see her then
ON THE NEXT - - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Greenlee: Put your eyes back
in your head, Becca.
It's just a man.
Only, he happens to look good
with his shirt off.
