Ryan: It was my idea to blow that joint. Can I please look now? Take this off?
Greenlee: Oh, you always get more than what you ask for with me. You can look now.
Greenlee: Could you get a better place?
Ryan: Yeah, I think I probably could, given the opportunity. This is -- this is your place to party?
Greenlee: Get over it.

Gillian: I must be dreaming.
Jake: I want you to be my wife.
Gillian: Jake --
Jake: I -- I'm not very good at this. But I'm -- I'm really nervous, and I know it's all of a sudden and I don't even have a ring, and you don't have to say anything right now.
Gillian: For the rest of our lives?
Jake: Yeah. Yeah, that's the plan. You, me, and Colby.
Gillian: You make me so happy.
Jake: I want you to be happy. I want you to be happy forever.

Mateo: Happy New Year. Hayley: Happy New Year to you, too.
Tina: Hayley. I've been looking all over for you. You have to come in here. There's this redhead wearing this fabulous outfit, and I didn't want you to miss interviewing her for your TV show.
Hayley: How considerate of you.
Scott: Hayley. Tina. Tina was just going ape about some runway model wannabe over there. You want to go cover it?
Hayley: That's what I'm here for.
Mateo: Sounds like a scoop to me.
Hayley: Excuse us.

Tina: Happy New Millennium.
Mateo: Right back at you.

Liza: Adam?

Marian: Oh, Stuart, Stuart, stop it. You're supposed to be Adam. Adam would never kiss me. What's the matter with you?
Stuart: It's New Year's Eve. I don't want to -- I can't help it. I don't want to help it.
Marian: I know, but you -- ok, one more quick one. No one's looking. Come on.
Stuart: Ok, that's it. That's it.
Marian: What are you doing, darling?
Stuart: [As Adam] getting into character. You're right. You wouldn't be seen kissing Adam Chandler.
Marian: Oh, please, can I talk to Stuart just a couple more minutes?
Stuart: This is hardly the place.
Marian: Oh, come on. Let's go find a place. Hurry up.

Alex: Oh, God! Please leave me alone!
David: Alex, wait! Alex, please --

[David yells]

[Alex pushes David down the stairs]

Erica: David? David! My God, someone help him! David! Edmund, help him. My God, he's not moving.

Marian: I heard a scream. Is something -- oh, my God. Dr. Hayward.
Stuart: He needs a doctor.
Alex: I killed him.

Erica: Edmund? Edmund, please come and help him. I think he's -- will somebody please get a damn doctor in here!
Stuart: Let's try to find Dr. Joe or Jake. And I'll try --
Marian: You're supposed to be Adam.
Stuart: Oh, yeah
[as Adam] uh -- don't -- don't move his head, Edmund. Let a doctor do that.
Erica: Adam, for heaven's sakes --
Edmund: He's got a pulse. He's got a pulse.
Erica: Oh --
Stuart: Make yourself useful, Marian. We need a doctor!

Erica: David? David, sweetheart --
Edmund: All right. Now, Rae went to find Dr. Martin.
Erica: What did you do? You come down here to finish the job?
Alex: He needs medical attention.
Erica: Don't you touch him! Don't you even breathe --
Edmund: All right, let's just focus --
Alex: If I don't look at him --
Erica: He may live.
Edmund: Focus on David.
Joe: Doctor, what's the situation?
Erica: Attempted murder! Alex pushed him down the stairs!
Edmund: Joe, what we know is that he fell down the stairs, ok?
Joe: Pulse is strong.
Alex: Don't move him without a backboard, Joe.
Erica: You shut your mouth.
Edmund: Everybody be quiet. Let Joe do his work. Joe, what do you need?
Joe: A couple of blankets, sheets.
Rae: I'll get it.

Edmund: I'm not the last person that's going to ask you this. What happened?
Alex: He was coming at me. I was trying to leave. And he was --
Edmund: He wouldn't let you go?
Alex: Look, it all happened so fast.
Edmund: Ok, ok. You went to get your coat. Did he follow you?
Alex: I was trying to get back to the hunting lodge before -- and then he was pushing me and coming at me, and he kept accusing me, and -- ugh, it's all so mixed up. So, then we were at the top of the stairs. And -- oh! I wasn't trying to kill him. I would never do that.
Edmund: I know. I know.
Rae: Alex, no one is accusing you of that.
Erica: That's exactly what we're doing. You pushed David down the stairs.
Alex: No, I didn't mean to.
Erica: You didn't mean to what? Botch the attempt? Get caught in the act? Well, you may have gotten away with helping Dimitri to an early grave, but I swear I will see you rot in jail for trying to kill David.

Tina: So, do you have two left feet?
Mateo: What?
Tina: Well, this is my first society shindig. Do you want to dance?
Mateo: Oh, Tina, there are tons of guys here who would love to dance with you.
Tina: But not you.
Mateo: Thanks for asking.
Tina: Well, props to you for the invite. At least I got to see you in your tuxedo.
Mateo: Yeah. Well, you won't see it again. Just once a year I put this thing on. It's not exactly my style, you know?
Tina: Let's get some hors d'oeuvres. We can come on over here --
Mateo: Ok. You want to eat that?
Adrian: Mateo, you look great.
Mateo: Thanks, man.
Adrian: Listen, I hate to cut in here, but they're playing our song.
Mateo: Oh, no. Hey, hey, you guys enjoy. Take care.

Adrian: You know, you can eyeball that guy all you want to, but it's never going to happen, honey.
Tina: I don't know what you're talking about.
Adrian: I saw you send Hayley away on that wild goose chase after that redhead socialite.
Tina: I was just doing girlfriend a favor.
Adrian: Oh. just before he and Hayley kissed and made up, huh?
Tina: Fashion happens when you least expect it. I'm just doing my part to move things along the way they're supposed to. Bye.

Liza: Adam?
Adam: [As Stuart] are you ok? You look a little pale.
Liza: I'd have to be after a kiss like that.
Adam: Oh, sorry. I know everybody thinks that you and Adam are having problems and everything, but, well, he certainly would want to put a big smacker on you at the stroke of midnight.
Liza: You did that very well.
Adam: Must be in the genes. I -- I got carried away, I guess.
Liza: Just a feeling I -- never mind.
Adam: Feelings are good. Let me get you some water.
[Liza sees Marian with the real Stuart on the other side of the room]

Liza: Oh, my --
Adam: Liza?
Liza: Huh

Marian: Excuse us. Come, come, come.

Adam: [As Stuart] you're getting some of your color back. I thought maybe you were going to faint after that kiss I gave you.
Liza: Don't flatter yourself, Adam.
Adam: Oh, that's a good one. I have to remember that you and Adam aren't so cozy these days.
Liza: Well, that shouldn't be hard. I'd love to go home. Would you get my wrap, please?
Adam: Sure. Wouldn't want you to get sniffles before your big trip.
Liza: No. My wrap is the other way.
Adam: Ok.

Tad: Stuart. Listen, not for nothing, but if you want to keep it real tonight, maybe you shouldn't be such a good dancer. Everybody knows there's no way Adam could be that graceful on cloven hooves.
Adam: Well, they're good enough to kick your teeth in.

Tad: Oh, he is good. I mean, really good. I just got a chill down my spine.
Liza: Go with that feeling.

Liza: Mother --
Marian: Liza, everything is falling apart. How did Adam get out of the safe room?
Liza: Have you seen any policemen around?
Marian: Policemen?
Liza: Yes. Adam could have us arrested for what we've done.
Marian: Oh, my god.
Liza: Mother, this is just a game. We got to keep going with it. Because if Adam has something big up his sleeve, he would've hauled us off in handcuffs by now, believe you me.

[Marian screams]

[Stuart screams]

Liza: No! Pull yourself together, you two.
Stuart: What did I do?
Marian: It's nothing, Stuart. It's me, darling. It's me. I'm sorry.
Stuart: Come on, Adam would never scream like that.
Marian: No, darling, of course he wouldn't.
Liza: What's going on with you? Why are you out of it?
Marian: That's how he looked when I found him, darling.
Stuart: I was just having a little drink with Barry. It was a toast. And then I took a nap.
Liza: Mother, you got to get Stuart out of here.
Stuart: If Adam's here, I'd love to talk to him.
Marian: Honey, there's no need. He already knows what he's done, Stuart. Let's just call you a taxi and get you out of here.
Stuart: Adam doesn't take taxis.
Marian: Well, darling, look offended when it picks you up, ok? Liza, what are you going to do?
Liza: Improvise and stay away from kitchen knives.
Marian: Good luck.
Liza: Thank you.
Marian: Let's go, let's go.

Gillian: Could this be the happiest day of my life?
Jake: It will be mine if you say yes.
Barry: Excuse me, Dr. Martin.
Jake: Hi.
Barry: This is for you.
Jake: Oh. What is this?
Barry: Read it and find out.

Adam: Hope I didn't keep you waiting too long.
Liza: No. No, you're certainly back.

Gillian: What is it?
Jake: I don't know. Considering it's from Adam's attorney, it can't be good news.
Rae: I'm so sorry, Jake. There's a medical emergency.
Jake: Oh. Oh.
Rae: Please, I'm sorry.
Gillian: It's ok.
Jake: I'll be right back.
Gillian: Go, go. I'll be right here.

Gillian: Tonight is beautiful.
Eugenia: Look at my granddaughter. She's all aglow.
Gillian: I'm see-through.
Eugenia: Yes, especially to your grandmother. Tell me, was that all about a certain young doctor?
Gillian: Can't I keep any secrets anymore?
Eugenia: Well, not from me.
Gillian: You know, I -- I always used to go to Dimitri. He had the wisdom.
Eugenia: Well, I'm sure he's still watching over for you, so -- so, my darling, you go. Go where you'll feel close to him. Go on, my sweet.

Hayley: So, tell us, who designed your gown this evening?
Woman: Well, actually, I designed it myself.
Hayley: You're kidding. It's truly stunning, it's several multi-layers --
Woman: Thank you so much. I wanted to stand out a bit tonight, you know? It's the millennium.

Adrian: Come on, let's go.
Tina: I'm busy here.
Adrian: I know, but for all the wrong reasons.

Ryan: Wait.
Greenlee: What, wait? You want it, you don't want it. You do want it, you don't want it.
Ryan: You know, I -- I know. It's just not -- it's not the way I do things. And --
Greenlee: Well, then show me your way.
Ryan: In horror movies, couples get hacked to death in places like this. Right?
Greenlee: Only once they take off all their clothes.
Ryan: You are really not used to hearing no.
Greenlee: No. Are you?

Erica: Edmund, have you lost your mind? This woman clearly pushed David down a flight of stairs.
Alex: He was coming after me.
Erica: He would never hurt you. I happen to know he was trying to mend fences with you. He gave you gifts.
Joe: Quiet. We don't want the other guests coming in here.

[David groans]

Joe: David, it's Joe Martin. You had a fall.
Erica: You all right now, David? You're all right. I'm here. Joe?
Joe: Give him a moment, Erica.
Jake: Rae told me he fell down the stairs, Dad.
Joe: He's got a mild concussion for certain. Dislocated shoulder.
Jake: Hayward, do you know where you are?
David: Wildwind. New Year's Eve. Ow.
Joe: Oh, boy.
David: Oh, shoulder's out of socket.
Jake: Ok, I'm going to have to set it back in place. So, you just take a minute and get your bearings, all right?
David: Ok.
Erica: Edmund. Edmund, you must call the police. I demand that Alex be arrested. She threw him down the stairs!
Rae: Now she threw him? Erica, let's try and stay rational, all right, at least until we know the facts.
Erica: I know that a man was almost killed here tonight and nobody seems to care.
Alex: I wasn't trying to kill anyone.
Erica: Oh, really? Well, you tell me -- what exactly were you trying to do when you pushed him down the stairs?
Edmund: Ok, that's enough. Listen, you came in, you saw the same thing we did. Him falling. Nothing more.
Rae: There are only two people who really know what happened here. Dr. Hayward and Alex.
Erica: David. David, tell them. Tell them what she did to you. They're letting her just get away with it.
Edmund: All right, let him speak for himself. David, can you tell us what happened?
David: I tripped.
Erica: What?
David: I fell backwards down the stairs.
Erica: David, don't protect her.
David: Alex didn't do anything.
- Erica: David, you're not thinking clearly. I mean, I can understand why, but --
David: Erica, please. It was an accident. It was my own clumsy fault.
Erica: David, you've never been clumsy a day in your life. Why are you protecting this crazy woman?
Edmund: You heard what he said.
Rae: He tripped and he fell. That's all, Erica.
Erica: Oh, you must think we're all fools.
Edmund: All right. You don't have to listen to this.
Erica: Edmund, how could you be so wrong about someone? First she manipulates manipulates the situation with Dimitri --
Edmund: Ok, ok --
Erica: And now this?
Edmund: That is enough! You will not abuse my brother's memory or his widow. Am I clear?

Alex: I'm sorry, David.
David: There's nothing to be sorry for.
David: So, what about this shoulder, doc?
Joe: You know as well as we do, we're going to have to set it back in place.
David: You up for it?
Joe: Well, fortunately, I have a strapping son with a medical degree.
David: Great. Now, I know you'd like to rip this arm out, but try to be gentle, will you?
Jake: It's so tempting to be unprofessional.
David: Does anybody have a bullet I could bite on?
Erica: Gee, I'm really glad you all find so much to laugh about.
David: Well, you said it yourself -- I'm lucky to be alive, right? I want to keep the arm, all right, doc?
Jake: I'll do my best. Ok, just take a deep breath, Hayward. Deep breath. Now. Deep breath.

[David yells]

Gillian: Excuse me. I -- I just came -- no, never mind. Just -- don't let me stop you.
Ryan: Gillian, please.
Gillian: You know, couldn't you find somewhere else to go?
Greenlee: Of all the places to get caught.
Ryan: I shouldn't be here in the first place.
Greenlee: What's the matter? It's not like you two are still married.
Ryan: No, I guess it's not.
Greenlee: Then why are you acting like you just got caught cheating on your wife?

Adam: [As Stuart] I could just see Colby on the jet now. We ought to get her one of those toys that she can chew on so it doesn't hurt her ears when we land.
Liza: Oh, Stuart, were you thinking of coming with us?
Adam: No. No. No, I just meant I would go to the airport and make sure everything runs smoothly.
Liza: That's very thoughtful of you.
Adam: Well, that's what Adam would want me to do. I mean, he'd love to be going with you.
Liza: Oh, I bet he would.
Adam: It's too bad.
Liza: What?
Adam: That you and Adam are so far apart. You're his life, Liza -- you and Colby. He's going to just waste away without you.
Liza: Well, I think he's taken care of himself over these years pretty well.
Adam: But he -- you're everything to him, and -- well, if you look at it from his side, he was -- he was just trying to make you happy.
Liza: Well, he has a pretty twisted way of showing it.
Adam: Well, nobody's perfect. A man like Adam, though, he had to learn how to love. You taught him that.
Liza: I failed.
Adam: You've tried to convince yourself of that, but I assure you nothing could be further from the truth.
Liza: You know, I gave Adam everything. I vowed to love him and to cherish him. And after everything, after all that --
Adam: What? Tell me.
Liza: Every night, I still think that I wish that we were a family. I do. Even after everything that's happened. And yet I know that Adam is going to be out for blood when he gets out of the safe room, and he's going to divorce me as quickly as he can.
Adam: [Normal voice] oh, no, I won't. I promise.
Liza: What did you say?
Liza: Stuart? You sounded just like Adam.
Adam: [As Stuart] did I?
Liza: Yeah. Well, this must be very confusing for you. How about if we talk about something else?
Adam: No, no. No, what you said was very important. You were about to let go of your anger and all of the -- the pain and resentment you've held against Adam.
Liza: Well, I can't. It's just too late.
Adam: [Normal voice] no, I won't accept that.
Liza: Stuart, you're slipping back into Adam again.
Adam: I am Adam.
Liza: Stuart, you're scaring me.
Adam: Come on. It's me, Liza. I am Adam.
Liza: How did you escape?
Adam: Oh, it doesn't matter how I escaped. What you just said was what I have been praying that you would say. That's why I had to get out, so I could be with you and Colby. That's why I -- I put together this trip to Monaco, so I could be with you and Colby -- us as a family, to work things out, to settle our differences.
Liza: Differences? I could never forget what you've done to me and to Jake. The list goes on and on.
Adam: I know, and you never will forget it. But I have figured out how and where I went wrong. I decided I had the right to determine what was right for you and me, all in the name of love, and I was wrong. I was dead wrong. So I'm asking you to forgive me.
Liza: Adam --
Adam: My love for you is so much bigger than my precious ego. I want us to decide who we are, to decide what our family is. You and me. I'm not asking for another chance. I'm asking for a whole new beginning, life shared with you and Colby and me.
Liza: You have no idea what you've done. Jake is a father now. No, not biologically, but spiritually, in his heart. He -- he loves that. He loves Colby.
Adam: After we left tonight, Barry gave Jake a letter informing him that he was not Colby's biological father. I know he's probably devastated, and I'm sorry about that. Look, if we are to have a life together, the truth had to come out.
Liza: If we were going to have a life together? You thought that this was the best way to tell Jake?
Adam: No, it wasn't the best way. There was no best way. But it had to be done. Liza, I know it's -- it's probably too soon to ask your forgiveness. But, please, I'm -- I'm just hoping for some understanding.
Liza: Oh, I -- I understand. More than you know.

Edmund: Sit down, Alex. I've made sure you're not disturbed.
Rae: Alex, would you like some tea, anything? Can I get you anything?
Alex: No. I want to be alone for a minute. I don't want to talk about this just yet.
Rae: Ok. Fine.
Edmund: We'll be downstairs.

Edmund: She just finds it impossible to open up.
Rae: Yeah, I know. I really would like to work with her, but that has to be her choice. You're right. She doesn't open up. And until she does, no one's going to get through to her. Good luck.

David: All right, ok. All right, that's enough. That's enough.
Jake: You're going to be out of the OR. For a while.
David: Yeah, no kidding. Thanks for your help, Jake.
Jake: Hmm. I expected you'd be a much more difficult patient.
Joe: He's saving his gripes for me.
David, I want to do a cat scan of your head and a shoulder series to be on the safe side. Now, if you have any dizziness --
David: Yeah, I know.
Joe: Nausea --
David: I know, Joe. I'll watch myself.
Joe: Ok. I'll be around for a while in case you need me.
David: Ok.
Erica: Joe? You were wonderful.
Joe: Well, I think I'll go have another dance.

Erica: Well, is there going to be an explanation?
David: I thought I already gave one.
Erica: I'll take you to the hospital. But we really should call the police first. I want a restraining order against Alex. She shouldn't be allowed within 100 yards of you.
David: No, Erica. No police. Not now, not ever.

["In the Mood" plays]

Adrian: Let's go.
Tina: I came here to have a good time, not get pulled around like some 2-year-old.
Adrian: I know, but I've been trying to find a spot for us to be together all evening.
Tina: Have you found it yet?
Adrian: Tina, listen to me. No matter how beautiful, smart, sweet, and charming you are, you and Mateo are never going to be together.
Tina: You know what? I don't need your advice, Oprah. I can handle my own life.
Adrian: Listen, there is an alternative.
Tina: I'm not looking for an --
[Adrian kisses Tina]

Tina: What did you just do?
Adrian: Just let you know how I've been feeling.

[Hayley laughs]

Scott: You know, people will do anything to get on the camera.
Hayley: It's true. I think showing us her designer underwear was a bit much.
Scott: Yeah.
Hayley: Don't you think?
Mateo: Sounds like you guys have quite a show.
Hayley: Well, we'll see after we edit.
Scott: Um -- m going to go see if anybody else is ready for the camera, all right?
Hayley: Ok.
Scott: Catch you later.

Hayley: So, I thought we were about to get into something before.
Mateo: That wasn't just me?
Hayley: Nope.
Mateo: We're on the same page?
Hayley: Definitely.
[Hayley and Mateo kiss}

Greenlee: You take one look at Gillian and I feel like I'm with a married man.
Ryan: Yeah, well, if you haven't been married, you -- it wasn't one look. She comes in here, we're half-naked, and we're rolling around on coffins of her dead family members.
Greenlee: Are you -- are you afraid she's going to think you're a little freaky?
Oh, finally. Finally. The beautiful, beautiful smile. Why does having fun get so heavy with you, Ryan? I'm just here with you, for you, to do whatever you want to do.
Ryan: I'm sure every man with a pulse would think I'm crazy for not devouring you every chance I get. But, but, but I really need to work some stuff out.
Greenlee: I'm running out of rain checks.

[Music plays]

Eugenia: A woman cutting in. That is deplorable. But since it is my lovely petite --
Jake: I missed you.
Gillian: I wanted to speak to Dimitri.
Jake: Dimitri?
Gillian: Yeah. Whenever something happens in my life, I always ask for his advice. So I went to the mausoleum.
Jake: Mm-hmm. What'd he say?
Gillian: That this time I don't need his advice. I just have to listen to my heart.
Jake: What'd your heart say?

Erica: Alex pushed you down the stairs. You're protecting her?
David: I am not trying to. Erica, something is going on with Alex. It's strange. I can't explain it.
Erica: You're just coming to that now? Alex has been unstable and strange. I've been telling you this from the start.
David: No, this is different. When I was standing at the top of those stairs, she wasn't looking at me. It was as if I didn't exist. She saw something else entirely. I mean, maybe I remind her of something. It's not clear, but I want to find out.
Erica: Look, bottom line, David -- the woman is unstable and she is a danger to you. She proved that here tonight.
David: Something disturbs Alex beyond reason, and I want to find out what it is.
Erica: Look, we'll discuss this later. I have to take you to the hospital.

Edmund: Alex, I know you don't want to talk. But I really want to help. Will you let me?
Alex: I did push him.
Edmund: Why?
Alex: Oh, it was as if I didn't know who he really was. Am I losing my mind?

Tad: Sweetie.
Dixie: There you are.
Tad: I know. See, let me ask you a question. How does Stuart strike you this evening?
Dixie: Why?
Tad: Well, not too long ago, he coldcocked me with an insult. And you know, it was really amazing. It was so much like Adam, for a minute, I could have sworn it was Adam.
Dixie: Well, it does seem strange, but that's Stuart.

Adam: My bags are already packed for Monaco. Can I help you out?
Liza: No, I'm almost packed. I just have a few things to organize.
Adam: Good. I can't tell you how -- how overjoyed I am you're taking this so well.
Liza: Well, I'm trying your way of thinking.
Adam: It's a new way, full of possibilities.
Liza: Well, like you said -- at heart, we're very much alike.
Adam: We're just alike. We are one, you and I. I've known that from the beginning.
Liza: Maybe you should go and check on Colby, see if the nanny packed everything she needs.
Adam: Say no more.

Liza: Mother.
Marian: Oh, Liza, thank goodness. Where are you?
Liza: We're at home.
Adam thinks he's flying to Monaco with us. We're going like one big happy family.
Marian: What's the plan, darling?
Liza: Listen, has Jake left the party yet?
Marian: Jake? Not that I know of.
Liza: Ok, you have to stop him. Barry gave him some sort of envelope or something tonight. You've got to tackle him. You got to get this envelope away from him. Jake cannot read what's in the envelope, if he hasn't already.
Marian: What's in the envelope, Liza?
Liza: Something that could ruin my entire life.
