Leo: Don't you think I know
you pretty well by now?
Greenlee: I should hope so.
Leo: Then I'm going to know
when you're not telling me
something, right?
Greenlee: Well, that depends
on me having something to tell,
which I don't.
Leo: So you know nothing
about how Laura went overboard
at Ryan's party the other night?
Erica: Ah --
there you are.
Leo: Hey, Erica.
How's it going?
Erica: Oh, don't.
Don't insult me by trying to be
nice.
I know everything.
Leo: Erica, I --
Erica: You were what?
Irresponsible?
Negligent?
I had to track Bianca down
to New York on a hot tip
from a classmate.
Why, Leo?
Because you lied to me.
You lied to me.
You neglected Bianca.
I want an explanation right now.
Laura: So I still don't know
why you took off to
New York City by yourself.
Bianca: Don't make me bore
you with t details.
Laura: Well, I doubt
your reasons would be boring.
Shannon: Look who's back
from New York.
Did Mommy Dearest turn
the lost-and-found upside down
looking for you?
Bianca: You know,
you're really sick, Shannon.
Don't you have anything better
to do with your time than rat me
out to my mom?
Shannon: Hmm, let me see --
nope.
Bianca: Just stay out
of my life, ok?
Shannon: Why so grumpy?
Heather: Maybe she got caught
in the act.
Mindy: Gross.
Shannon: Is that what
happened, Bianca?
Your mother found you picking up
boys in Times Square?
Laura: Shannon, I have
a sticker for your locker.
It goes, "warning -- objects
in mirror are dumber than
they appear."
Shannon: What are you,
Blanca's bodyguard?
Laura: I know it's a foreign
concept, but I'm a friend.
Heather: More like
a pit bull.
Mindy: Why are you always all
over Bianca?
Shannon: Really,
like her shadow or something.
You're either protecting
her from the cold, cruel world
or hoping for a date.
Heather: Uh-oh.
My Gay-Dar's tingling.
Bianca: Stop it.
Laura: Knock it off.
Heather: Looks like we hit
a nerve.
Shannon: Is it true, Laura?
Are you the super slut's lesbo
buddy?
Dixie: David, what's wrong?
David: Nothing.
Nothing. I'm fine.
Dixie: No, you're not.
David: I got to get out
of here.
Excuse me.
Dixie: Wait -- no, no, no.
Come on.
You're crying, you're shaking.
You're not going to go out there
and drive.
David: Dixie, please.
Dixie, come on.
Damn it.
I'm all right, I'm all right.
Dixie: Please, look,
whatever's happening,
whatever's going on, you just --
just talk to me.
Tell me.
David: No, I can't.
Look, I shouldn't be doing this.
Dixie: I'm right here.
I can help you.
Just talk to me.
David: It's just this time
of year, ok?
Just -- I try not to think about
it.
It just -- look,
December's a long month for me.
Dixie: The holiday season?
David: Look, I tell myself
I can hold on.
I tell myself, "you can get
through it.
Just --"
but everywhere I go,
everything that I see, it's just
a constant reminder of what
this -- this all signifies
for me, ok?
And it's just --
I just can't shake it.
Dixie: What are you trying
to forget?
David: How Christmas became
the worst time of my life.
Liza: This is a weird place
for you to be.
Tad: Why?
Haven't you ever seen a man
at an OB-GYN's office before?
Liza: Of course I have.
Just I mean, you know, Seaview.
Tad: Oh, I'm just picking
something up for Dixie.
Liza: Oh.
Why didn't you do it at --
Tad: What are you doing here?
Liza: Dr. Clader's
on vacation, so I had my checkup
here.
I'm all done.
Tad: You're leaving?
Liza: Yeah.
Tad: You know, I was -- I was
just about to leave myself.
Liza: Something wrong?
Tad: No, no.
Everything's fine. Fine.
Come on.
I'll walk you to your car.
Liza: Ok.
Leslie: Tad -- I thought
you were going to wait for me.
Liza: You're here together?
Diver: This is definitely
a find, Mr. Marick, but I don't
know if it's what you're looking
for.
Adam: Pray they didn't find
Arlene.
Diver: It's too clean to have
been down there long.
Dimitri: Where did you
find it?
Diver: On some pilings about
30 feet down.
That's all we found.
Edmund: Oh, my God.
Adam: What is it?
Edmund: It's --
it's the Marick Crest.
It was a broach that
Gillian gave Alex.
Dimitri: She was wearing it
the night of the party,
the night she disappeared.
Laura: What if I am
a lesbian?
Do you have a problem with that?
Shannon: Hey, go write
your folk songs.
What do I care?
Just don't ask me out.
I don't do girl-girl.
Laura: Of course not,
Shannon, because that would be
out of the ordinary for someone
like you, huh?
Shannon: Yeah.
Laura: Do you know how
ordinary you are?
Open up any teen magazine,
and there you are -- a stupid ad
for shampoo acne cream,
and a pair of jeans.
Shannon: And what are you,
some alternative lifestyle
queen?
Think that makes you special?
Bianca: Laura is special.
She's her own person.
Laura: You're just a trend,
Shannon.
And your time will come,
you'll just vanish like any
other fad.
You're like a picture in an old
yearbook -- totally faded.
Because you're just an image,
anyway.
And you're already disappearing.
Shannon: Good thing you have
life all figured out
for the rest of us, Laura.
Bianca: Wow.
Thank you, Laura.
Laura: Why?
They came after me first.
Bianca: Yeah, but you nailed
them for the both of us.
I don't understand.
I mean, why do they want
my blood?
Laura: Because you're Erica
Kane's daughter.
Bianca: I thought that was
supposed to make me popular.
Laura: Well, they're jealous
because you refuse to be
the person they think you should
be.
So of course they want to put
you in your place.
Bianca: What place?
I don't even want to be in this
high school in the first place.
Laura: Face it, Bianca.
You're smart and sweet and plus
you think for yourself,
so of course they're jealous.
And, besides, you're far more
interesting than people like
Shannon ever could be.
Marcus: Hey, girls.
I just saw Shannon, Laura.
Are you really a lesbian?
Laura: Are you
my alternative?
Marcus: In your non-lesbian
dreams, no.
But, seriously, I didn't believe
Shannon.
Laura: Do I look like I care?
Marcus: Don't you want
to know why I don't believe her?
Laura: Not really.
Marcus: Laura, remember these
photos you said you took of me,
myself, and I in the guys'
shower?
Laura: Yeah.
Are you going blind yet?
[Laura and Bianca laugh]
Marcus: Keep laughing,
keep laughing.
I know you're only bluffing
about me.
But I really wanted to thank
you, Laura.
Laura: What for
Marcus: For these pictures.
They're your contribution
to guys in showers and gas
stations everywhere.
Bianca: Laura?
Marcus: You'd be surprised
what's on the internet these
days.
Do you get royalties for these,
Laura?
Laura: Shut your mouth.
Marcus: You know,
Laura, I don't know why you gave
up porn.
You're a natural.
Leo: Erica, I know that
I shouldn't have let Bianca
bolt, but she really didn't
leave me much choice.
Erica: Oh, stop the double
talk, Leo.
And don't bother trying to cover
for Bianca anymore,
either, because I know the real
reason she went to New York.
Greenlee: Finally.
Leo: Be quiet, Greenlee.
Bianca told you that?
Erica: She didn't have
to tell me anything.
I walked in on her.
She went to see Sarah,
that horrible girl who broke
her heart.
Leo: Bianca told you that?
Erica: She didn't have
to tell me anything.
I saw them.
I was there in the hotel room.
And Sarah had Bianca in tears
once again.
I mean, not bad enough that this
horrible Sarah stole Blanca's
boyfriend when they were
at rehab.
No.
Then she dumped him and now
she's marrying somebody else.
Leo: Sarah's getting married?
Erica: Yes.
And Sarah told Bianca that
she is barred from her wedding,
all because Sarah's horrible
mother doesn't want to even
believe that her daughter
actually went to rehab.
And this horrible mother
of Sarah's is going around
telling everybody that Bianca is
a bad influence.
Now, Bianca doesn't need that.
Bianca doesn't need to have
her self-esteem undermined like
that.
Leo: I'm sorry that Bianca
had to go through all that.
Erica: Yeah, well, sorry is
hardly enough, Leo.
Look, you work for me.
And when you say you're going
to do something, I mean, call me
crazy, but I expect
you to follow through.
Greenlee: But it wasn't Leo's
fault.
My dog went AWOL before
the New York trip, and I needed
Leo's help to find him.
Erica: Oh, well, then.
Well, then, of course, you chose
a dog over Bianca.
Leo: Greenlee, maybe
you could wait outside
on the porch for me.
Greenlee: It's cold outside.
Besides, I'm not going to be
told to wait outside like
a puppy every time I come over
here.
Leo: One second, please.
Greenlee, please, just let me
put out the fire in here,
and then you can have me
for the rest of the day.
Greenlee: Hmm.
Promise?
Leo: Promise.
Erica: You know,
Leo, if Greenlee doesn't want
to be treated like a puppy every
time she comes over here,
easy -- she doesn't have to come
over here.
Leo: Please, Erica, just tell
me what I can do to make this
right.
Erica: I'd like to give
you another chance.
I really would, Leo.
But this time you must come
through for me.
Leo: I'll make it my number
one priority.
Erica: All right.
Look, Bianca is still very
upset.
But she likes you.
You know how to cheer her up.
So what I'd like is
for you to pick her up after
school and take her out.
Take her to the movies,
take her to BJ'S for dinner,
take her window shopping
at the mall.
You know, really show her a good
time.
Leo: I'm not sure I follow.
Erica: It's really fairly
simple, Leo.
Distract Bianca.
You're just what she needs.
Leo: Are you asking me
to take her out on a date?
Dimitri: Was this it?
The only thing down there?
Diver: It's all we found.
It was stuck on some pilings.
If anything else went overboard,
it's probably been dragged out
to sea by now.
Edmund: Even a body?
Diver: Very likely.
Dimitri: Thank you
for your help.
Marian: Adam, this is
horrible for Dimitri and Edmund.
Adam: Yeah, it's tragic.
But one man's tragic is another
man's freedom.
If they didn't find Arlene's
body, they're not going to.
Marian: That means that
you and Hayley are off the hook,
then, doesn't it?
Adam: Not quite.
I still haven't divorced Arlene.
Marian: That can easily be
rectified, Adam.
Adam: No, not that easily.
I have to go to Europe.
I have to find Arlene.
I have to bring back
the divorce papers signed --
with a few good stories about
how well Arlene is doing among
the Euro trash.
Marian: Wait a minute.
You're telling me you're going
to forge the divorce papers?
Adam: What choice do I have?
Edmund: Alex --
Alex was wearing that.
She can't --
Dimitri: Edmund, Edmund --
Edmund: She can't be --
Dimitri: No tears.
I don't believe Alex is dead.
Edmund: Where is she?
Dimitri: Why don't you
tell me.
Marian: I can't believe it.
Adam Chandler is taking
my advice?
Adam: All right.
You get credit for a good idea,
but it's still damn risky.
Marian: Well, of course
it's risky.
But better that than facing
a murder rap, right?
Adam: I fake a trip
to Europe, I come back, I file
the papers, and no one's
the wiser.
Marian: And Liza gets
to marry the man she loves --
although why she still wants
you I will never understand.
Adam: I could ask Stuart
the same question about you.
Edmund: You got something
to say, why don't you just
say it.
Dimitri: I think the brooch
was taken off her dress,
thrown into the water to make it
look like she fell in.
Edmund: And you think I had
something to do with that?
Dimitri: Just a theory,
Edmund.
Just a theory.
Edmund: With me as the prime
suspect.
Dimitri: I didn't say that.
Edmund: You didn't have to.
Ok.
That's your plausible theory?
Let me make it easy for you.
I grabbed Alex, I took
her to a launch, I ripped
the brooch off,
threw it overboard,
and then I took her away.
Isn't that what you want
to hear?
Dimitri: I would like to hear
the truth, Edmund.
Edmund: What you would like
is to blame me, so I'm trying
to make it easy for you.
What I did was I locked
her into the special prison that
I have for all my special
victims.
And I've been planning this ever
since you magically reappeared
and stole her from me.
Dimitri: No, no, I did not
steal my wife from you!
Edmund: The important thing
is you never see her again.
Alex is mine forever.
Roll credits. The end.
Dimitri: You are one sick
puppy, Edmund.
You know that?
Edmund: After all the garbage
you've pulled in your life,
how dare you call me sick.
Derek: I came as soon
as I got the diver's report.
Look, Dimitri, I don't want
you to lose hope --
Dimitri: Derek, Derek,
Derek, please.
Please.
I do not believe that my wife is
dead, even though that's what
Edmund wants me to believe.
Derek: You think he threw
her brooch in the water?
Dimitri: Yeah, yeah, I do.
And I know how to get him
to admit it.
David: It usually doesn't hit
me this hard.
I mean, something about
being here with you.
I mean --
it's -- this is everything that
I always wanted growing up.
So much warmth here and love.
I mean, this --
this is a real home.
Dixie: What was it like
for you?
David: Vanessa's house was
filled with deceit.
Smiles upon lies.
And yet he still loved her.
Dixie: Who?
David: My father.
This is when it happened --
the Christmas season.
That evening my parents went off
to a party, so I decided that
I was going to take out all
the Christmas decorations.
I wanted to put them up
by myself.
Dixie: How old were you?
David: 12.
Stupid Christmas lights.
Everybody always tosses them
in a box right after they take
them down from the tree
because they want to just leave
it alone and deal with it
the next year.
So I was -- I was so exhausted
from trying to untangle all the
cords, and I went to bed, and
that's when their arguing woke
me up.
Dixie: Did they argue a lot?
David: No.
My father usually gave in.
But this time he wouldn't back
down.
And Vanessa loves a good fight.
Dixie: Did they
know that you were listening?
David: Not at first.
Vanessa was taunting him,
saying she wanted a divorce
and that she had found
a real man.
Dixie: That's horrible.
David: She kept goading him
and pushing him, saying,
"what are you going to do
if I leave you?
You going to kill yourself?"
She didn't think he had
the guts.
Well, he was determined to prove
her wrong.
And he also had a gun.
Dixie: Oh, my God.
David: When the police came,
my father was still lying in
my arms, where he bled to death.
Liza: Tad's waiting for you?
Leslie: Well, my car's dead,
and Tad offered to give me
a lift home.
Liza: Oh, that's wonderfully
convenient.
Proves chivalry isn't dead.
Tad: A guy can't be helpful?
Leslie: You know, I think
I'll go try it again.
You never know.
Liza: Or call the auto club.
Leslie: Thanks again
for your help, Tad.
Tad: Sure.
Leslie: I'll see you soon.
Liza: What was that?
Tad: What was what?
Liza: That whole Leslie
thing.
Tad: What didn't
you understand?
Her car wouldn't start.
She asked me for a ride --
Liza: I heard the
explanation.
I don't believe a word of it.
Tad: You think Leslie
would lie?
Liza: Ok, start from
the beginning.
Why would you feel it was
necessary not to tell me that
you were waiting for Leslie
in the first place?
Tad: Well, who are you,
the KGB?
Liza: You're offering
her a ride but you're walking
with me out the --
Tad: Uh, uh, uh --
just a second. Go back.
Go back.
I said I was leaving,
as you were.
I was just about to leave,
and I offered to walk
you to your car.
That's all.
Now, should I get a lawyer?
What is this?
Liza: I'm just saying
something's up with you.
I've convinced myself it's this
David/Dixie thing.
Tad: Well, why wouldn't it
be?
That's very difficult to go
through.
Liza: Yeah, but --
you're a bundle of nerves.
And, you know, I got to tell
you, you got that look
on your face.
I know that look.
Tad: What look?
Liza: Guilt.
Man guilt.
I know because I'm familiar
with it because I've been
the cause of it.
Only not this time.
Tad: Are we through here?
Liza: It's Leslie.
There's something going on
with the two of you,
and it isn't car trouble.
Leo: Erica, taking
your daughter out on a date is
not exactly in my job
description.
Erica: I'd say you're
overreacting a little bit, Leo.
All I'm asking you to do is
spend an evening with Bianca.
Can you do that?
Leo: I guess.
Erica: You guess?
Leo, you turned your back
on Bianca.
She had to go to New York all
by herself.
Don't tell me you're going
to turn your back on her again.
Leo: Ok, ok. Fine.
Erica: Well, thank you.
Look, I know that Blanca's
strong-willed at times, but
I'm just trying to keep
her in the right direction.
Leo: Hey.
There's been a change in plans.
Erica wants me to do something
for her.
Greenlee: What now?
Leo: She wants me to pick
Bianca up after school and
take her out.
Greenlee: On a date?
Leo: No, not exactly.
She's a little down about
the whole New York thing,
and Erica wants me to cheer
her up.
Greenlee: So you're supposed
to help Bianca forget about
her girlfriend and the fact that
she's gay?
Leo: No.
I'm just supposed to make it
better.
Greenlee: Talk about denial.
Can you imagine when this all
hits the fan?
The truth is going to turn Erica
gray.
Leo: Blanca's scared to death
that Erica's going to hate her,
so she's never going to tell
her.
Besides, she's probably right.
Bianca probably does need some
cheering up right now.
Greenlee: Well, not from you.
Drop her at the nearest lesbo
bar and call it a day.
Leo: Shh --
would you please stop it.
Bianca needs a friend right now,
Greenlee.
Greenlee: No, she needs
to come to terms with her life
and move on with it.
And you need to remove yourself
from this whole Erica/Bianca
drama.
You're not required to solve all
the teen angst in this town.
Let Bianca and Laura find
another shoulder to cry on.
Leo: Which reminds me --
we were just talking about Laura
before Erica showed up.
Greenlee: We were?
Leo: Yeah, about how she fell
overboard.
You know something, and you're
not telling me.
Greenlee: Shouldn't you be
on your way to get Bianca?
Leo: No, no, no.
That can wait.
Tell me what happened
on the yacht, Greenlee.
Greenlee: Ok.
Laura was pushed --
I think.
Leo: Was she or wasn't she?
Greenlee: She was.
Leo: Who pushed her?
Greenlee: Leo, I don't want
to talk about it anymore.
Leo: Too bad, Greenlee.
Tell me who pushed her.
Greenlee: Your pal Bianca.
Tad: You see?
This is why I didn't tell
you I was waiting for Leslie
in the first place --
because you always manage
to jump to the worst-case
scenario.
Liza: Oh, so I'm wrong?
There's nothing going on?
Tad: No!
Woman: I'm sorry
for the wait, Sir.
We'll be ready for your test
in just a moment.
Tad: Thank you.
Liza: So, how come you didn't
tell me you were having tests?
Tad: The test is no big deal.
I just wanted to make sure there
was none of that -- that
Libidozone floating around
my system after the party.
Liza: Why didn't you go
to Jake at PVH?
Tad: Because I didn't want
to deal with the extra tension
at that hospital, if you know
what I mean.
Liza: I do.
I read about it in the paper.
Evidentially it made your libido
go into overdrive.
Tad: Something like that.
Liza: Yeah, I hope Adam
and I --
oh, no.
Tad: What?
Liza: I saw you at Ryan's
party.
Tad: Half the town was there.
Liza: You were with Leslie.
Tad: So?
Leslie: Good news --
the car's running.
Looks like I won't need that
ride after all.
I'll see you at the office,
Liza.
Bye, Tad.
Tad: Bye, Leslie.
Liza: Why will I be seeing
her at the office?
Tad: I put her on retainer?
Liza: All right.
You can just stop denying it,
all right?
I know you too well.
Tad: It was the damn drug.
David: Wait a minute.
I shouldn't have done this.
Dixie: Oh, no, no.
What are you talking about?
You can't -- you can't just keep
stuff like that inside
you forever.
David: Dixie, why do you keep
doing this?
Why -- after everything that
we've been through, why do
you keep listening?
Dixie: Am I so wrong to trust
you?
David: You almost lost
your husband because of me.
Dixie: You don't have
the power to do that, David.
I mean, come on.
I'm as much to blame on that
as you were.
David: No.
This isn't right. I can't.
I'm not going to do it.
I won't compromise your
marriage, your family,
everything that you hold dear
because I've had some sadness
in my life.
I will not be the reason that
you're unhappy, Dixie.
I love you too much to want
to hurt you in any way.
Boy: Laura --
good shot, honey.
Whoo!
Bianca: Look, it's ok.
I'm going to tell everybody that
Marcus doctored those shots.
I mean, tabloids do that all
the time.
You know, they put different
heads on people's bodies.
Laura: It won't matter.
That stuff's on the web.
Anybody can download it.
Those pictures are going
to follow me for the rest
of my life.
Bianca: Look, Laura,
that's not who you are anymore.
Laura: Do you think these
people are going to care?
Bianca: It doesn't matter
what they think.
I care, ok?
Look, you are a very strong,
very cool person, and --
I mean, the Laura that's
in those pictures doesn't even
exist anymore.
Laura: I wish.
Bianca: You don't have
to wish.
Laura, you're one of the most
awesome people I've met
in a long, long time.
And I'm not easy to impress.
Laura: Well, you've really
only known me for, what,
a month or two?
Bianca: I'm an excellent
judge of character.
Seriously, I mean, you went
through all that stuff when
you were a kid and you didn't
let it cripple you.
I mean, it gave you the kind
of strength that I wish I had.
Laura: You're strong, Bianca.
You just don't see it yet.
Leo: In what universe would
Bianca push Laura off the boat?
Greenlee: The one we're
living in, apparently.
Leo: But why?
How do you know that it was her?
Greenlee: Why?
I can't say.
How do I know?
I saw her do it.
Leo: You were there?
Greenlee: Yes.
Leo: You saw the whole thing,
and you never mentioned anything
until now?
Greenlee: I guess I just --
I just blanked.
Maybe that drug scrambled
my short-term memory
or something.
Leo: This is too much.
Greenlee: I couldn't believe
it myself at first.
And I didn't want to tell
you because I know how you feel
about Bianca.
I figured you wouldn't believe
me, and I'm right.
Leo: It doesn't make
any sense.
Greenlee: Think about
the truckload of tragedy Binks
has been through.
Her father dies, her mother's
on her butt 24/7, she's got one
foot out of the closet,
and obviously she was drugged
and she flipped out and then
she passed out.
Leo: Why Laura?
Greenlee: Remember when
Bianca came to and she was
asking for Sarah?
Leo: Yeah.
Greenlee: Maybe she thought
Laura was Sarah and hated seeing
her hanging all over
you and lost her mind.
Leo: That is so far-fetched.
Greenlee: I don't know what
to tell you, Leo.
It doesn't matter anyway
because it was that drug.
Leo: You're absolutely sure
that it was Bianca?
Greenlee: Yes.
Leo: You'd swear
on your grandfather's life?
Greenlee: Please.
Where are you going?
Leo: I got to go pick up
Bianca.
Greenlee: You're not going
to throw this in her face,
right?
Leo: Well, I can't just let
this go, Greenlee.
Greenlee: Damn.
Memo to self --
you need better lies.
Tad: So that was all
I remembered.
I thought it was some kind
of hallucination or a bad dream.
When I saw her at thanksgiving,
I realized we'd definitely done
something.
Liza: Not something.
Everything.
Tad: No kidding.
Been breaking my neck trying
to let her down easily.
She's acting all weird on me,
like there's more to it than
just this one night.
Liza: Well, evidentially
she's not taking the hint.
Tad: You think?
Honestly, if I lay it
on the line, I'm afraid she's
going to go schizo on me and go
running straight to Dixie.
Liza: Well, you hire
her as corporate counsel?
Don't you think that distance
might have been a better plan?
Tad: Easier said than
done, Mon Ami.
Now every time I turn around,
she's in my face.
And just for your information,
making herself our attorney was
her idea, not mine.
She announced it to Dixie.
What am I going to say, no?
Liza: Well, you know,
that's obsessive.
Tad: You have no idea!
Liza, I'm serious.
I think this girl's gone peanuts
on me, you know?
She's picked up where
her sisters left off in high
school.
Liza: Ok.
This incredibledreams.com party
was a PR nightmare.
Somebody should go to
wall street just to make sure
that our investors are not
nervous and that they should
know full well that Chandler is
not going to lose millions
on an IPO.
Tad: This is genius.
It would definitely get me out
of town.
Liza: Mm-hmm.
It would do something that needs
to be done, Leslie could spin
her wheels while you're out
of town.
By the time you got back,
everything would be settled down
and you'd get your test results
back.
Tad: It's -- bravo.
Baby, I'm on the next plane.
David: I shouldn't have said
that.
I'm sorry.
Dixie: You love me?
David: No.
I mean -- just --
just forget what I said,
all right?
Dixie: I can't do that,
David.
David: Dixie, I don't want
to love you.
I promise I won't feel this way
for a long time, all right?
Dixie: I think we both know
it doesn't work that way.
David: Look, I meant what
I said.
I don't want to hurt you.
[Telephone rings]
David: Answer it.
[Ring]
Dixie: Hello.
Hi.
Hi, Honey.
No, I'm just
decorating.
Where are you?
Oh, New York.
Oh. Ok.
Yeah. I'll be here.
Bianca: Let's just forget
about it.
Let's get out of here
or something.
Laura: Let's just go over
there and slap them
or something.
Bianca: Good, you're getting
angry.
That's an improvement.
Hey, come on.
Live to fight another day.
Shannon: Leaving so soon?
Heather: Don't we get
an autograph?
Shannon: Can we touch
the famous porn star?
Laura's voice: Help! Help me!
Bianca: Laura?
Are you ok?
Laura: On the yacht --
I remember now.
I know what happened.
Bianca: What, you mean when
you fell overboard?
Laura: I didn't fall, Bianca.
I was pushed.
Derek: And you're sure this
is how you want to do it?
Dimitri: Yeah. For now.
No, no, just --
Liza: Mother, what are
you doing here?
Marian: Hi, Darling.
I'm here to see Ryan.
I'm selling the loft --
you know, the one he bought
from you, and I had to talk
to him about a few things.
Liza: Is Adam here?
I heard he was meeting
with Ryan.
Marian: He's gone.
But there's been some terrible
news about Alex Marick.
They found a brooch that she was
wearing the night of the party
down in the water.
Liza: Oh, my God.
They -- they don't think that
she drowned?
Marian: That's what they're
trying to figure out, Liza.
Liza: Well, it can't be true.
I mean, Alex and Dimitri were
just starting their life
together.
What's happening?
All these couples being ripped
apart.
Marian: What other couples
are you talking about, darling?
Liza: You know, never mind.
Adam and I, we haven't had it
easy, but from now on I'm not
going to leave his side.
Where is he?
Marian: He's going to Europe
to get Arlene to sign
the divorce papers.
Liza, wait a minute.
Where are you going?
Liza: Mother, if he's
at the airport, he's going
overseas, then I should be
with him.
Marian: He's going to be
with Arlene.
You don't want to get
in the middle of all that,
darling.
Liza: Mother, look what
happened with you and Stuart,
with Alex and Dimitri.
We've wasted so much time,
Adam and I, and we're in this
life together.
I've said the words "to death do
us part."
I should start following those
words, don't you think?
Marian: Liza, wait, darling.
Please, Liza, wait.
Derek: I have a lot
of manpower on this, Dimitri.
Are you sure you don't want
to keep going until --
Dimitri: Shh, shh.
Derek, Derek, Derek --
I am certain
that Edmund has Alex.
We have to find out where.
And my plan will get that out
of him.
Edmund: Derek.
Are you two conspiring?
Derek: Dimitri has decided
to file charges against you.
Edmund: For what?
Derek: Assault.
You've had episodes during which
you've become violent.
You even tried to kill Dimitri.
Edmund: If I'd been really
trying, I would have succeeded.
Dimitri: Well, you do seem
sort of confused in those kind
of situations, Edmund.
Edmund: Is that so?
Edmund: Is that so?
Derek: We want to question
you down at headquarters about
the party.
Dimitri believes that you had
one of these episodes
and you abducted Alex.
Edmund: That theory is
the fantasy of an insecure man.
Derek: Look, Edmund,
if you don't come with me
quietly, I'm going to have
to bring people in here to take
you.
Don't make me do that.
Edmund: Fine.
I'll go --
just to prove you wrong.
Tad: Honey, I don't know what
to tell you other than I
sorry.
It's just this incredibledreams
fiasco has turned into a major
scandal and the only way I can
make sure that Chandler
Enterprises doesn't lose
millions of dollars is for me
to go to New York and baby-sit
three or four major investors.
Dixie: Is it really that bad?
Tad: Well, yeah.
You know how much I hate leaving
you.
Dixie: It's ok.
You do what you have to do, ok?
I'll be fine.
Tad: I'll be back as soon
as I fix this mess.
I promise.
I'm going to fix everything.
Leslie: Every time I think
I have Tad to myself,
someone pops up.
Today it was Liza.
I need to get him alone,
away from his family,
his business, his friends.
Are you listening to me?
David: So you're having
problems.
Leslie: Nothing I can't
handle.
Any luck with Dixie?
David: I just left her.
Leslie: And?
David: None of your damn
business.
Leslie: Fine.
I know you're not the type
to kiss and tell.
David: Who said we kissed?
Leslie: You're so sensitive.
Something must have happened
with her.
You sound like a man in love.
Anyway, we'll catch up another
time.
I've got to go track down Tad.
David: You just missed him.
He's on his way to the airport.
Leslie: What?
Do you know where he's going?
David: I don't know.
New York, I think.
Listen, I don't want to make
this into a long night,
all right?
Leslie: Yeah.
I've got things to do, too, ok?
David: Ok.
Leslie: Bye.
ON THE NEXT - - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Junior: Hey!
Get your hands off my mom.
Greenlee: You're not going
to cave, are you?
Liza: Where are you?
Adam: I'm on the plane.
Liza: Really?
