ALL MY CHILDREN

FEBRUARY 15, 2001




Greenlee: Two grand is a small price to pay for a good man.
Laura: I actually thought Leo couldn't be bought.
Leo: Laura, wait. Wait.
Laura: I thought you were done playing games with Greenlee.
Leo: I am. But, please, just let me take care of this my way.
Laura: What, does that include making me feel like an idiot?
Leo: No, of course not.
Laura: You know, just do what you're going to do, ok? Just leave me out of it.
Greenlee: Yet another blow to Laura's dismal life.
Leo: You know, this feels vaguely familiar, Greenlee. Nice girl walks out of my life, and Greenlee enters.
Greenlee: Becca got over it. Laura will, too.
Leo: No, I don't like being ambushed, Greenlee, ok?
Greenlee: Is this any way to start a date?
Leo: You want a date?
Greenlee: I won you, didn't I?
Leo: You paid for me. There's a difference.

Ryan: Party looks like it's going all right.
Leo: Yeah. You won't believe this. I just got a date with everyone's favorite hottie, Greenlee Smythe. Yeah!
Gillian: What? I thought you guys weren't speaking to each other.
Ryan: I don't even want to ask. How's the party going?
Leo: Good, everything's fine. Wait, come here. Ma you won't believe this. Greenlee just outbid Laura for a date with lucky old me.
Ryan: Outbid? I thought we were doing a raffle, not an auction.
Leo: Don't even ask, don't even ask. Are you coming here to take over the party? Please?
Ryan: Well, no. Gillian: We are going to the mountains.
Ryan: Yeah. Are you cool with that?
Leo: Yeah, everything's firing on all cylinders.
Ryan: Yeah? Ok, good, because my company's under a microscope right now. We can't really afford any screw-ups.
Leo: There won't be any. There won't be any, I promise. I mean, how could there be when I've got a date with Greenlee Smythe. Right, Greenlee?
Greenlee: Everything's right with the world again.
Leo: That's right.
Ryan: Great. Great. Well, you've got my cell number.
Leo: Right.
Ryan: Good luck with things.
Leo: Ok.

Greenlee: Can we get out of here?
Leo: The fun hasn't even started yet. Greenlee you're acting kind of funny. Let's go someplace quiet.
Leo: There's nothing funny about a $2,000 date, Greenlee, and are you are going to get every penny's worth, ok? Hey, can I have your attention, please? Dreamers, I want your attention, please. You're about to witness a $2,000 kiss, ok?

Liza: I came as soon as I could. Adam's under arrest. Tad?
Tad: What?
Liza: Adam's been charged with a couple of felonies.
Tad: Yeah, I know. He'll survive. He always does.
Liza: Well, so much for sympathy. What's wrong with you?
Tad: Feel like my life is dissolving. Like everything I care about is slipping away, and there's not a damn thing I can do about it. Liza: Not Dixie? Tad: Mm-hmm. And Junior. All because of the likes of David Hayward and Leslie Coulson. They've done it, Liza. They've beaten me, and they've beaten me good.

Leslie: Please, help me, Dixie.
Dixie: What happened? You hurt?
Leslie: Yeah. I need your help. Can I come in?
Dixie: No, you can't come in. What are you doing here?
Leslie: I -- I needed to see you.
Dixie: Why?
Leslie: We have a few issues to discuss, and I twisted my ankle coming up the walkway. Can you give me a hand?
Dixie: You know, you are the last person I expected to see here tonight.
Leslie: This isn't easy for me, either.
Dixie: Do you like flowers, Leslie?
Leslie: Actually, I have allergies.
Dixie: To what? To roses? Or spiders? Are you out of your mind? Sending me a poisonous spider wrapped up in some flowers?
Leslie: I don't know what you're talking about, Dixie.
Dixie: Oh, please don't tell me that you're going to deny it.
Leslie: Deny what?
Dixie: Ok, fine. You had your shot. Now it's my turn. You want to play? Let's play.

Liza: I don't believe what I'm hearing. Junior idolizes you. He will always love you.
Tad: Not after tonight. He asked me why Dixie and I were fighting, why I had to move out of the house. I admitted that I'd slept with Leslie Coulson.
Liza: That must have been awful.
Tad: Oh, it gets better. He asked me why I didn't apologize, try to make it up to Dixie and move back in.
Liza: And what'd you say?
Tad: I told him it was a conversation he'd have to have with his mother.
Liza: You couldn't lie?
Tad: No, I couldn't. Not to Junior. So then, of course, I'm sitting there, and he -- he asked me if his mother had slept with Hayward.
Liza: Oh, God. Well, you didn't tell him, did you?
Tad: Oh, come on, Liza, he's a very bright boy. You know, I didn't flat-out say it, but it doesn't exactly take a member of Mensa to figure it out, does it?
Liza: I'm sorry, Tad.
Tad: You're sorry. He was so furious, he just sat there and cried, started hitting me. Probably hates my guts. Can't say I blame him, either. I swore to him that nothing would ever break up our family, you know -- that I would protect everything that we have, and I haven't exactly done that, have I?
Liza: What you have created with Dixie is very strong. You're not going to convince me that you've lost your family or her love.
Tad: No, Dixie's finished with me.
Liza: Hayward has snaked his way into your life. He has gotten to your wife when she was her most vulnerable. She thought that you were cheating on her.
Tad: Well, either way, nothing's ever going to be the same.
Liza: You can't give up. You have to go and fight for your life, and I mean right now.

Leslie: I'm not trying to play games with you, Dixie.
Dixie: You walk pretty good for a woman with a twisted ankle.
Leslie: I was trying to avoid getting smacked in the face with the flowers that you threw at me. Roses have thorns, you know.
Dixie: Is this some kind of joke to you, sending me this spider wrapped up in the flowers? You know, my son could have gotten bit, you know. Or Becca or Jamie or anybody else who lives in this house. What, are you trying to give me a heart attack or something?
Leslie: Why would I want that?
Look, I don't know who sent you those flowers.
Dixie: You know, Tad told me that you were crazy, and I didn't believe him. But I tell you, I believe him today.
Leslie: I think I should leave.
Dixie: No, no, no. You are not going anywhere. First, you drugged Tad a second time with Libidozone, and then you send me and my family a spider wrapped up in some flowers? Nobody threatens my family. Do you understand me? Nobody!
Leslie: What are you doing?
Dixie: I'm calling the police. You are going to jail.
Leslie: Phone trouble? And here we are, all alone.

[Cheers]

Leo: Yeah! Whoo! $2,000 Worth of lip. Yeah! So, tell everybody, Greenlee -- was it worth it?
Greenlee: Stop it.
Shannon: That was weird.
Heather: Totally humiliating.
Mindy: Yeah, thanks for the buyout.
Greenlee: If you're trying to prove that you don't love me, it's still not working.
Leo: Greenlee, we rehearsed the scene in private a bunch of times. Maybe we should go public. I'm sorry, Greenlee, but maybe you didn't hear me. I don't love you! Any questions? No? Ok, good, then I guess our $2,000 date is over. Ok, bye-bye.

Greenlee: That guy has a terrible sense of humor.

Tina: Everyone, drinks are still on the house!

[Cheers]

Jake: Wow. Well, I see you certainly are a glutton for punishment.
Greenlee: Enter the good doctor with another asinine comment.
Jake: Do you remember what I said when you came into the hospital?
Greenlee: Cut my losses with Leo? It was bad advice then, and it still stinks.
Jake: Well, all I'm saying is, actually, is that no man likes to be played for a fool, Greenlee.
Greenlee: Oh-ho. Now, there's the voice of experience. You just missed the love of your life. She left with Ryan, the love of her life.
Jake: Ooh, oh. I deserved that, huh?
Greenlee: Stick to medical advice, you'll be fine.
Jake: Well, actually, if I felt this strongly about someone -- and you know I have -- I suppose I'd make a fool out of myself, too.
Greenlee: Hmm. Finally, some understanding.
Jake: Well, that doesn't mean we're friends.
Greenlee: Far from it. But I could use someone to help me escape. People are still staring at me.
Jake: Ok, well, I guess, you want to go have a drink?
Greenlee: Anyplace but here.
Jake: Listen, I think you've taken enough abuse for one night. Come on, let's go.

Gillian: So, do you think it was ok to leave Leo in charge of the party?
Ryan: Well, if there's one thing Leo knows how to do, it's party.
Gillian: Yeah, but with Greenlee -- you know what? Never mind. I'm not going to worry about Leo and Greenlee.
Ryan: No, we have enough to worry about.
Gillian: Are you -- are you worried about what might happen with Jake and the baby?
Ryan: Well, we definitely have some things to figure out. You ok? You warm enough? You need anything?
Gillian: No, I'm fine. I'm fine. So, tell me about this place that you're taking me to.
Ryan: Well, you'll see when we get there.
Gillian: Do you know where we are?
Ryan: Of course I do.
Gillian: Then why do you keep on looking out the window?
Ryan: I'm not. Trust me, this is definitely the road to paradise.
Gillian: Well the fog's pretty thick. Are you sure we're not lost?
Ryan: You don't even know where we're going, and you think I'm lost.
Gillian: Well, men always say they know where they are until they end up in the wrong place.
Ryan: Well, I'm here with you, aren't I?
Gillian: Yeah. So?
Ryan: So I have to be in the right place.
Gillian: Aw, Ryan.
Ryan: Ok. I -- I -- I mean, I think this is the road to paradise, I'm just not exactly 100% sure, so maybe I should turn around and -- ahem -- I saw a farmhouse back there a couple miles back.
Gillian: That's ok. As long as I'm with you, I'll never be lost.

[Knock on door]

Palmer: All right. All right, all right, all right, all right.
Leo: Good evening, Palmer. Sorry to show up unannounced. Is my mother still awake?
Palmer: I believe so. Come on in.
Leo: All right.
Palmer: She'll be very pleased that you came by to see her. Vanessa? Leo's here.
Vanessa: Oh. Leo, what a nice surprise.
Leo: Mother. You're looking well.
Vanessa: Well, you're exactly what I needed -- a little mother-son visit.
Palmer: There's a very interesting nature show on television. I'll just leave the two of you alone.
Vanessa: Oh, isn't he the sweetest?
Leo: Oh, a man among men.
Vanessa: Hmm. All right, you go right on back to your lions and tigers and your bears. We'll be just fine.
Palmer: All right. Well, don't tire her out. The doctors say she needs her rest.
Leo: I'll be as careful as I can.

Vanessa: I don't deserve him.
Leo: You got that right.
Vanessa: I beg your pardon? Leo, you know, from the tone of your voice, do I have to take it that we're going to have words?
Leo: I'm putting you on notice, Vanessa. Back off right now. Stay out of my life.
Vanessa: Well, that certainly gets right to the point.
Leo: I know what you're up to, and I'm giving you the chance to stop it right now.
Vanessa: Is this when I say, "or what?"
Leo: Or you won't like what I do next.

Tad: Well, I appreciate the pep talk, but it's not quite that simple, is it?
Liza: I'm not going to sit here and listen to you roll over. You've got to go talk to your wife.
Tad: How do you suggest that conversation go, Liza? "Hi, Honey, I love you. By the way, I just told your son that you slept with somebody else"? See, that's the problem. Things were difficult before Junior got involved. Now they're practically impossible.
Liza: You know what? It is what it is. Did you honestly think at some point that Junior wouldn't be involved?
Tad: I don't know. I was just kind of hoping I could spare him.
Liza: Why are you taking all this on yourself? Dixie slept with David. It was her choice. You did not force her to go to bed with him.
Tad: Listen, what if Jake was right?
Liza: What? What did he say?
Tad: A while back, he suggested that maybe Dixie is with Hayward because she wants to be. Maybe she's bored of her life, she's bored of me, she wants something else. What is that look?
Liza: I'm waiting for your violins to start.
Tad: Well, hey, so much for sympathy, huh? I'm serious. She wouldn't be the first married woman in the world who decided she wanted something new and took off, right?
Liza: Oh, please.
Tad: Right?
Liza: Listen to me. If Dixie were going to do that, she would have gone out for milk and she wouldn't have come back a long time ago. From the very beginning, you have been right. David Hayward, Leslie Coulson have been manipulating you from the very beginning.
Tad: Yeah, well, they've done a damn good job. Bottom line is if Dixie wants something different, if she wants something new and I really love her, then who am I to stop her? How can I stop her?
Liza: Oh.
Tad: I can't believe I'm saying this.
Liza: Neither can I. I --
Tad: Ow?
Liza: How many times did you want to do that to me when I was going back and forth about Adam?
Tad: More times than I can count.
Liza: Then you know where I'm coming from.
Tad: Yeah, well, I never hauled off and hit you, did I?
Liza: Well, every once in a while, I could've used a good smack in the head. That was yours.
Tad: I'll remember that. Next time you might try a few choice words the way I did.
Liza: I have those, too. You want to hear them?
Tad: Oh, God.
Liza: Listen to me. Every woman in the world -- doesn't matter who it is -- she wants to feel that she's worth fighting for.
Tad: Damn it, Liza, I'm doing that.
Liza: Then don't come back till you're a bloody pulp and Hayward is in his car and he's driving out of town. I can't believe I'm sitting here and listening to you. Are you still the same man that I went to hell and back with?
Tad: Maybe I've grown up, you know? Maybe I've accepted who I am, where I've been. I'm trying to deal with what's happened and move on. Is that so strange? Is that such a weird idea?
Liza: My best friend -- you, my friend, are not the kind of person who loses to the likes of Leslie Coulson and David Hayward. They can't compete with your love for your family or your wife. If you give up on that, then this friendship is over. I mean it.
Tad: What?
Liza: I mean it. Get up off your butt. Go fight for your life, or I am never going to speak to you again.

Dixie: Did you do something to my phone, Leslie?
Leslie: Looks like a freak accident to me. At least we won't be disturbed.
Dixie: You are way past disturbed. You are as sick as they come.
Leslie: Sick in love with Tad, if that's what you mean. It's the same way that you feel about David. I mean, doesn't it just hurt to hear David's voice, to know that he's near you?
Dixie: You have no idea what my feelings are.
Leslie: It's obvious to the whole world. You can't think of anything but David. It's written all over your face how you feel about him.
Dixie: Shut up!
Leslie: You know, I know a love like that, Dixie -- to want a love so bad that you would kill for it.
Dixie: I never said that I felt that way about David.
Leslie: Stop trying to hide it. Can't you see what your feelings for David have done to your family? It's killing them, isn't it? You know, actually, when it comes to love, we're two of a kind.
Dixie: I'm nothing like you. Do you think your fixation on Tad is actually love?
Leslie: I don't care what you call it. You have what I want, and I can give you what you want. Why not make a trade? Fixes everything, doesn't it?
Dixie: You're insane. Tad isn't mine to give.
Leslie: Why doesn't this make sense to you?
Dixie: Maybe because I'm not deranged?
Leslie: You know, you're Tad's wife, and you don't even love him enough to keep your skirt on in front of another man. I think he deserves better than that.
Dixie: And what would that be? You? Tad would go broke in a month paying for all the therapy that you need. Why don't you just get out. Now!
Leslie: Why can't we just help each other?
Dixie: Maybe because you need professional help. I don't want to have anything to do with you, Leslie.
Leslie: But it's perfect. We could just switch partners.
Dixie: What are you saying? You and David aren't --
Leslie: Together? No. Not for a long time. But the fact is, you want David and I want Tad.
Dixie: And the trouble for you is they both seem to want me.
Leslie: You know, I can't quite seem to figure that out. I mean, what is it about you? The blond curls? The domestic bliss potential? The Madonna whore combo?
Dixie: Ok, all right, all right. You know, you're right. I'm wrong. You're not crazy. You actually think that this is an option.
Leslie: Yes, I do. I mean, haven't you had enough of Tad? I mean, you'll never really trust him again anyway. I mean, marriage may be for better or worse, but haven't you had enough of him cheating on you? That is why you went for David, right?
Dixie: I don't expect you to understand what's going on between David and me.
Leslie: What, like it's nuclear physics? You found someone else who excites you. So give Tad to me. Then you'll be free to love David for the rest of your life. I'll even leave you and your family alone.
Dixie: And stay away from my house and from my kids?
Leslie: Yes. I promise I will never bother you again. Don't make me force you to shake on it. Deal?
Dixie: No.
Leslie: Oh!

Tad: Anybody ever tell you you're kind of persuasive when you want to be?
Liza: I'm serious. I don't care how hard you've tried with Dixie. You need to try harder. I don't believe that.
Tad: Yeah. Time to start drinking. We've crossed into the Twilight Zone.
Liza: What is Jake doing with Greenlee?

Greenlee: That's my father.
Jake: What, you weren't expecting him to be here today?
Greenlee: I wasn't expecting him to be in town. Rain check on the drink? I want to make sure everything's ok.
Jake: Absolutely, absolutely. Stay out of trouble.
Greenlee: Ok.

Greenlee: Daddy?
Roger: Greenlee. Would you like a drink?
Greenlee: No, thanks. What are you doing here? Why aren't you at home with Mother?
Roger: Home? What home? Your mother's divorcing me, thanks to you.

Vanessa: Well, Leo, you know, our little discussion is not going to get very far if you start off by threatening me.
Leo: I'm sorry, Mother, but that seems to be the only thing you understand.
Vanessa: Give me a chance, will you? What's the problem again?
Leo: Oh, come on, Vanessa. Greenlee's getting her marching orders from you.
Vanessa: Oh, and did she tell you that?
Leo: No, she didn't have to. I knew that something was funky when she came to visit you at the hospital.
Vanessa: That was merely a very sweet gesture.
Leo: Your fingerprints are all over everything she's doing now.
Vanessa: Oh, honestly, Leo. Do you think I have time for Greenlee Smythe when I've been busy being shot and trying to live and survive and --
Leo: So, wait, hold on a second. So you're telling me that you're not coaching her?
Vanessa: No.
Leo: First she pretends not to care --
Vanessa: That is simply called giving you your space, my dear.
Leo: And then she starts vamping, trying to buy me like a gigolo. It's all classic you. And it's going to stop right now
Vanessa: Leo, can I take it that things did not go very well with --
Leo: What, is that an admission of guilt, mother?
Vanessa: No! And don't expect an apology, either.
Leo: I'm begging you. Please, please, just stay out of it.
Vanessa: Oh, Leo. Not so long ago you were begging me to help you.
Leo: Yeah, well --
Vanessa: Begging me with the apartment, remember?
Leo: A lot's changed since then.
Vanessa: What? What? She's still beautiful, she's exciting, she's intelligent, she's very rich.
Leo: Mother, it's not all about the bottom line anymore, ok?
Vanessa: Well, since when? You know, Leo, I thought the one thing you and I had not forgotten was y we came to Pine Valley in the first place.
Leo: I'm not down with that either.
Vanessa: What? "Down with it"? What is that, some new parlance for "I quit"?
Leo: Basically.
Vanessa: Leo, you and I are a team, and we came here for one reason.
Leo: Yeah, I remember.
Vanessa: Well, do you also remember that Greenlee Smythe was on the top of that master list?
Leo: Well, I'm taking her off, effective immediately.
Vanessa: Don't be so hasty.
Leo: Don't force my hand.
Vanessa: Well, that is exactly what I'm doing because I have to.
Leo: How could you possibly think that we'd still be in business together?
Vanessa: You know, Leo, I have constantly stayed loyal to the reason we came here, and I thought you felt the same way.
Leo: Well, not when it came to facing the death penalty.
Vanessa: Haven't we got past Paolo yet?
Leo: No. That's the point. He was by your bed the whole time you were in the hospital, Mother. Palmer loves you.
Vanessa: Yes, well, I try not to be overly affected by that, Dear.
Leo: You can't help it. You like being loved by him, even when he's taunting you.
Vanessa: All right. All right, Darling, I admit it is not all an act. I -- I do have real feelings for the man.
Leo: Mother, for the first time in our lives, we've actually found a place that we can call home. It's something that we've never had before.
Vanessa: What, Pine Valley, PA? Don't be ridiculous. It's a weigh station.
Leo: Why are you denying this?
Vanessa: Because I came here for one reason -- to stake this place out, and I'm not leaving until I get --
Leo: What, till you get what you want? Aren't you getting it?
Vanessa: No. And you know why. Palmer's will -- look, I don't want you to confuse the issue. We had objectives here. When I first came here, I was going to pull the ruse on Erica Kane. When that blew up in my face, I luckily, fortunately found Palmer. Now, I've kept my end of the bargain up. And your objective was Greenlee Smythe, and I will be very disappointed if you don't finish what you started.
Leo: Well, whether you like it or not, we both found something real here.
Vanessa: Leo, you don't know what's real. You've been a grifter since you were 5 years old. It's in your blood. What is it? You sound like you're ready to go completely legitimate in life.
Leo: I am.
Vanessa: Doing what?
Leo: Working, for starters.
Vanessa: Oh, for Ryan Lavery? Oh, good grief, Leo, he's a con man himself. What's he doing? He's paying you in table crumbs and a roof over your head?
Leo: Hey, it's a start, all right?
Vanessa: So, what, you think you're going to become a dot-com millionaire in a falling market? Leo, honestly, you'll be out on the street selling car stereos within a month without my help. But, you know, Darling, what you did with Greenlee was absolutely inspired.
Leo: What are you talking about?
Vanessa: When I heard that you had refused Woody's million dollars to leave Greenlee, I thought, "brilliant, brilliant, brilliant." Maybe he all of a sudden thought you were a young man of integrity and Greenlee was putty in your hands.
Leo: That wasn't a con job, Vanessa.
Vanessa: Oh, but she's so madly in love with you. She's actually coming to me for advice, of all people. Darling, this scam couldn't be better if we tried. Use it. Just use it.

Greenlee: How could mother be divorcing you?
Roger: Well, it's very simple. She has money. She calls her lawyers.
Greenlee: But you two were so happy.
Roger: We put up a nice front.
Greenlee: You weren't faking it, Daddy. You're just depressed right now.
Roger: Didn't I ask you to stay out of my business? Instead, you were reckless, impulsive, and ultimately destructive, just like your mother.
Greenlee: How was I reckless?
Roger: Did you ask your grandfather for an audit of your trust fund?
Greenlee: Yes, but --
Roger: Well, he found it a couple of pennies short. A phone call later, I was an embezzler and my marriage was over.
Greenlee: Well, I'll call Mother. Maybe she --
Roger: No, please, don't bother. Matter of fact, I think it's best for all concerned if you stay out of my life from now on.

Liza: I mean, I have an excuse for wrecking my love life. I was raised by my mother. But you two? You were raised by two perfect saints, and you still have managed to ruin two perfectly wonderful, meaningful relationships.
Tad: What happened to "there's still hope"?
Liza: There is still hope. We have a deal. Go get your wife back.
Jake: Bye-bye, Liza.
Liza: Bye-bye.

Jake: All right, so, what's the deal?
Tad: Oh, I'm supposed to get my wife back, or else.
Jake: That sounds like a plan.

Leslie: That's going to bruise.
Dixie: You don't want anymore? Stay on the ground. I live in a house full of boys. I can knock you from here to Llanview.
Leslie: Listen, just let me get out the door, and I'll go.
Dixie: Ok, get out. Get out. You're a dangerous person, Leslie. I'm going to call the cops, they're going to hunt you down, and they're going to lock you up!
Leslie: That's not necessary.
Dixie: You don't even know who you're dealing with here, ok? You are never going to attack my family again. I will make sure of that!

Gillian: There should be a road on the left.
Ryan: How far?
Gillian: About -- coming up about right here.
Ryan: Here? What? I don't see any road. There's no road here.
Gillian: Wait a minute. Are we going north?
Ryan: Gillian, do you even know how to read a map?
Gillian: Oh, come on. I'm not the one who's got us lost in the Peekaboo Mountains.
Ryan: Pocono.
Gillian: Oh, come on, don't pretend like you know where we are.
Ryan: Hey, I know where we are generally. I mean, we're in the mountains.
Gillian: Nice, Ryan. Nice.
Ryan: Thank you very much. I have perfect sense of direction. And if this baby is mine, then it will have it, too.
Gillian: You know, despite what's going on, ever since I got in this car I've been imagining this baby to be yours.
Ryan: Yeah, so have I.
Gillian: Ooh.
Ryan: Gilly? You ok? What --
Gillian: Yeah, I think so. That was -- that was weird.
Ryan: Well, it's a little early for the baby to be kicking.
Gillian: Well, there's so many weird things going on with my body. I have no idea what that was.
Ryan: You sure you're ok?
Gillian: Yeah.
Gillian: So, why don't you tell me about this -- this place in paradise where you're taking me?
Ryan: It's a cabin, and it's the most peaceful place that I have ever seen. It is so quiet, you can even hear the snow fall.
Ryan: And at night, if it's really, really clear, the sky is covered with shooting stars.
Gillian: Wow. Sounds amazing. Oh. Oh!
Ryan: Gillian, what -- what's going on? Are you --
Gillian: No. No!
Ryan: Hey, Gilly, are you all right?
Gillian: Oh, God! That hurt!
Ryan: What do you mean? Where does it hurt?

[Gillian screams]

Leo: You can forget about being partners in crime. I'm not working with you ever again.
Vanessa: Oh, be serious, Leo.
Leo: Do I look like I'm joking? You can do whatever the hell you want to do with your life. I'm starting mine from scratch.
Vanessa: And just how far do you think you're going to get, hmm? You love money, you love champagne, travel. You don't know how to work, Leo. You know how to scam.
Leo: I'll figure it out.
Vanessa: Well, that'll be a first. And not with something this big, it won't. For heaven's sakes, you can't even pay your own rent, Leo. Why not just stay with Greenlee and let her take care of all these things?
Leo: No, it's out of the question. Forget it.
Vanessa why? She's mad about you. She's dying to keep you accustomed to the lifestyle that you know so well. All I'm asking you to do, darling, is accept your good fortune.
Leo: And give you a cut?
Vanessa: What is it? You don't want to share now? I share.
Leo: No, no, no, that's not it.
Vanessa: Then what is it, Leo? Your conscience? Oh, Darling, please. This is working better than either one of us ever even dreamed.
Leo: There is no plan, Vanessa.
Vanessa: Well, then there is no discussion because I'm not going to stand by and let you throw away a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Leo: I love her, Mother. I love Greenlee so much. And I don't care what you do or you say or you think. You're not going to control me anymore. I love her. And I'm not going to do anything to hurt her.

Greenlee: Please don't be angry with me, Daddy. Don't shut me out of your life.
Roger: Why not?
Greenlee: It's -- it's just, I'm sorry. Whatever I did --
Roger: I told you what you did.
Greenlee: Well, I'll fix it. I'm your daughter.
Roger: You know,
Greenlee, I'm sorry to have to be able to tell you this, but you were never supposed to be a part of my life in the first place.
Greenlee: What?
Roger: We never wanted children. Your mother was careless. I suppose I should be grateful that it happened only once, but once was certainly enough.
Greenlee: I -- I was--
Roger: Now, don't go running to your therapist and tell this, but, yes, you were a mistake.
Greenlee: Why are you saying this? Mom wouldn't say this.
Roger: The reality is having children surprises some couples. I don't like surprises.

Jake: So you haven't seen Junior since he found out about Dixie and Hayward?
Tad: After he finished pummeling me. The poor kid was so upset he decided he didn't want to go home. He wanted to be with Jamie over at Brooke's, so I let him go.
Jake: Man, I feel so sorry for that kid, Tad. But I want to, you know, just apologize again for that stuff I said about Dixie. I don't belie that she has chosen Hayward over you.
Tad: I don't know what Dixie's doing. Hell, I don't even know what I'm doing. Every time we talk to each other, the situation just gets worse.
Jake: Well, that's because Hayward's got his damn foot in the door and he's working on Dixie every chance he gets.
Tad: Yeah, but if what we had was so strong, then how could something like this have happened?
Jake: Tad, if you're talking about you cheating, you were drugged that night that she jumped you on that yacht. Dixie knows exactly the power of Libidozone. And she also knows how much you truly love her.
Tad: At this point, I don't know if that's enough.
Jake: Well, it always has been in the past. I tell you right now, Dixie will fight the devil himself for two things in her world. One is her children and the second is you.

Dixie: Hi. Is Lt. Derek Frye there, please? Do you know when he'll be back? Ok, can I leave a message, please? Yes. It's --

[telephone beeps]

Dixie: Hello? Damn it! Batteries, batteries. Batteries. Batteries. Come on, come on.
