Edmund: I want to thank
you for making the Crystal Ball
possible.
Dimitri: You guys created
the Crystal Ball out
of thin air.
Edmund: Without you,
we wouldn't have a ball.
Dimitri: All right,
let's raise our glasses
in a tribute to you-all.
Ryan: Oh.
Cheers.
Dixie: Thank you. Cheers.
Gillian: Cheers.
Dimitri: Cheers.
Ryan: Good job.
Gillian: You know, when I was
getting dressed just now,
I was thinking how much fun
it would be if Alex was here.
Dixie: You know, I was just
thinking the same thing
about Maria.
Ryan: I wish I'd known her.
Edmund: Well, there was
nobody like her.
Or Alex.
They'll both be missed.
Dimitri: Yeah, yeah,
tonight's purpose is to keep
Alex's and Maria's passions
for life alive.
And wherever my wife is,
let's keep the faith that she'll
be coming home to us soon.
Edmund: Let's make tonight
a night they'll both be proud
of, ok?
Dimitri: You got it.
Ryan: Time to greet
our guests.
What do you say?
Dixie: So, Gillian,
wait a minute.
Are you going to improvise
your speech?
Gillian: Oh! My speech!
I forgot my notes!
Ryan: That's ok. That's ok.
I'll run to the turret.
I'll grab them.
Gillian: No, no, no,
we don't have time.
We have the first dance.
Ryan: Oh.
Dixie: That's ok.
I'll go to the turret.
Just point me in the right
direction.
Gillian: Well, it's a little
bit more complicated than that,
but, you know, Mack,
the groundskeeper, he can show
you in the right direction.
Dixie: Ok.
Gillian: Thank you so much.
Thanks.
Dixie: You're welcome.
Ryan: Princess,
may I please have this dance?
Gillian: Yes, Milord.
Ryan: Après vous.
David: Good evening.
Dixie: Good evening, David.
David: Your beauty takes
my breath away, Dixie.
Dixie: I have to go.
Excuse me.
David: You're doing it again.
Dixie: What?
David: You're running away,
just like you did last night
at the boathouse.
Stop running, Dixie.
Stay and face what's happening
with us.
[Classical music plays]
Mateo: Hey, guys.
Have you seen Hayley?
Liza: Hey.
Well, no, we just got here.
Adam: She didn't come
with you?
Mateo: No. She was taping.
She said she was going to get
dressed there and meet me here.
Liza: Well, maybe taping took
a little longer?
Mateo: They wrapped
an hour ago.
Adam: Have you tried
her cell phone?
Mateo: Turned off.
Liza: That's not good.
Mateo: It's not good.
You know,
we practically blackmailed
her into not telling Derek what
went down.
All right?
She's having nightmares.
She woke up screaming
last night.
You're right, it's not good.
I'm worried.
Adam: Why don't we split up
and search the party?
Liza: All right,
we'll meet in the study
in a few minutes?
Mateo: Perfect. Perfect.
Liza: Ok.
Rain: Wow.
Brooke: Beautiful.
So, welcome to Wildwind,
everybody.
Rain: Yeah,
it really is wild.
You said Count Dracula
lives here?
Laura: Count Andrassy.
Dimitri Marick to his friends.
Rain: This is too surreal.
Me in a dressy-dress going
to a ball.
How did you swing this, Brooke?
Brooke: Oh, I have
connections.
No, you know what?
Myrtle Fargate provided
the dresses, and Dimitri comped
the community center tickets.
Rain: Hmm, so we could see
how the other half live?
Laura: Hey, let me in.
I was a runaway.
Rain: No lie?
Brooke: No lie.
All right, you guys,
this is a charity event,
so I want you to have fun,
enjoy yourselves,
see everything --
Rain: You know, I could dig
living in a castle.
I wonder how much it costs
to heat this place.
Brooke: Come on, everybody.
I'm going to introduce
you to Count Andrassy.
Rain: I don't have
to curtsey, do I?
Laura: Nah,
just kiss his ring.
Rain: Really?
Laura: Just kidding.
Brooke: Come on.
Leo: Laura,
I was hoping I'd find you here.
Look, I know that you probably
hate me, but I just want
you to know that I had no idea
that Greenlee was the one that
pushed you over the yacht.
Laura: Yeah,
I'd rather just forget it.
Leo: I can't.
Gillian: Hi.
Edmund: Sweetheart.
Great to see you.
Gillian: Thank you.
Jake: All right,
well, later, man.
I got to run.
Tad: What are you
talking about?
We just got here.
Jake: Yeah, yeah.
Well, I'm due back
at the hospital.
Tad: No, you're not.
You got somebody to cover
for you.
Jake: Yeah, I did.
Tad: Oh.
Watching Ryan and Gillian do
the golden couple doesn't
exactly tickle your fuzzies,
does it?
Jake: Well, let's just say
I'd rather be pumping stomachs
than getting sick to my own.
Listen, do me a favor.
Give Ryan the check for me.
Tad: Sure.
Erica: Dimitri.
Dimitri: Hey!
Well, thank you.
Erica: It's so good to be
back at Wildwind again.
Dimitri: Well, you look
absolutely lovely tonight.
Erica: Thank you.
And I always adored
you in a tux.
Dimitri: Hmm --
Erica: It makes you look
every inch the aristocrat.
Dimitri: Where is your date?
Erica: I decided
to come solo.
Dimitri: Really?
Erica: Yes.
Dimitri: And Bianca?
Erica: Well, you know Bianca.
She never liked big parties,
big events.
So I'm sure she's just off
with some friends at the movies,
having pizza.
Dimitri: Hmm.
Well, I wouldn't want
to disappoint Bianca.
We're not serving pizza.
Ryan: Ladies and gentlemen,
honored guests, hello.
Princess Andrassy and I would
like to welcome you
to the fourth annual
Crystal Ball.
[Applause]
Ryan: Thank you,
thank you, that's right.
Everybody have a good time.
Maestro, music, please.
[Music plays]
Erica: Bianca, this is such
an enormous surprise.
I mean, you look absolutely
beautiful, Sweetheart.
But where did you get
this dress?
Bianca: I got it at Myrtle's
shop.
Excuse me.
Jack: Hey, you save a waltz
for me, now, you understand?
Bianca: Ok.
Jack: Ok.
Erica: Jack,
what is going on?
Jack: Erica, like a friend,
I'm telling you, if you keep
doing what I think you're doing,
you're going to push Bianca
right out of your life.
Erica: What?
What are you talking about?
Jack: You suggested that
she not come to this party,
right?
Erica: I did not.
That's not true.
I mean, I was very surprised
that she was even considering
coming.
Jack: Why?
Erica: "Why?"
Jack, she's made such a strong,
definite point about hating big
parties and hating to be
in the public eye.
And I should think she'd want
to save herself some undue
embarrassment.
Jack: What are you
talking about?
Erica: Well, for one thing,
Greenlee Smythe.
I mean, she's of course going
to be here this evening,
if her grandfather is foolish
enough to post bail for her.
Jack: Wait a minute.
Greenlee Smythe is in jail?
Erica: Greenlee is the one
who pushed Laura English off
of Ryan's yacht, and she tried
to pin it on Bianca.
Jack: My God.
Erica: That witch has been
blackmailing Bianca.
Jack: That's horrible.
Erica: Yes, it's horrible.
Jack: But again, I say,
if you're doing what I think
you're doing, that's just
as inexcusable.
Erica: Me?
What are you talking about?
Jack: I think you steered
Bianca away from this party
because --
frankly, because you felt
ashamed of her.
Erica: Jack, that is simply
not true.
Jack: Ok.
But it seems to me that you may
have been less concerned about
Bianca's embarrassment than
you are about saving
your own face.
Rain: Will you get a load
of us?
Bianca: Rain,
you look so pretty.
Rain: I clean up pretty good,
huh?
Bianca: Yeah.
So,
do I look different to you?
Rain: Well, yeah,
the hair and makeup.
Bianca: No, no, no, no.
I mean, do I seem different?
Rain: You did it.
You told your mom.
How'd she react?
Bianca: Well,
first, she couldn't believe that
her precious baby could possibly
be gay.
Rain: But you got past that?
Bianca: I guess.
Then she was really eager
to blame someone for making me
this way.
Rain: Ah,
the old conversion theory.
Bianca: Yeah.
I think that my mom is afraid
that she's somehow responsible
for me being what I am.
She thinks -- or she's hoping,
at least, that it's just a phase
that I'm going through
and I'm going to grow out of it
or something.
Rain: Well, hey,
it could be worse, right?
Like my mom, who had a total
meltdown and kicked me
to the curb.
Bianca: It was --
it was pretty bad, Rain.
Rain: Yeah, but it wasn't
the end of life as you know it.
Bianca: I'm not so sure
about that.
Rain: Bianca, you were
stressing that Erica would
disown you or throw you out
or something.
But that didn't happen.
You should be happy.
Leo: I don't blame you
if you don't believe me,
Laura, but I honestly had
no idea that Greenlee was
the one that pushed you off
that yacht.
Laura: I believe you.
Leo: She's been cut off
my list, I swear.
Laura: Leo, I believe you.
Leo: Look, listen to me --
she almost killed you.
What Greenlee did to you was
treacherous, and I hope
she fries for it.
Laura: Leo, it's ok.
I don't blame you.
Leo: You don't?
Laura: No.
Remember riffing me about
stealing your soul with
my camera?
Leo: Yeah.
Laura: Well, Greenlee stole
something far more important
from you.
Leo: Well, all I know is
there's a little Grinch named
Greenlee who almost stole
Christmas and now
she's behind bars.
It's going to be a hell
of a good year.
Laura: Yeah?
Leo: Yeah.
Laura: When does it start?
Leo: Damn.
Damn.
Did you bring your
dancing shoes?
Laura: Mm-hmm.
Leo: Let's show the people
how it's done.
Greenlee: Do you believe it,
Gramps?
Leo's cutting me with that teen
porn queen.
Woodruff: Nothing you can do
about it, Darling.
Greenlee: Watch me.
Dixie: David, per usual,
you're making assumptions
and seeing things that
aren't there.
David: You know
that's not true.
Dixie: I am not running away,
and I am not scared of you.
David: I think you're afraid
of what might happen
if you surrendered control.
Dixie: This conversation is
entirely inappropriate.
Mateo: Oh, sorry.
Have you guys seen Hayley?
Dixie: Uh --
no, no, I haven't seen her.
Is there a problem?
Mateo: I hope not.
I think we just got
our signals crossed.
Dixie: Right.
Well, there's a lot of that
going around.
Excuse me.
Mateo: Yeah.
David: You should check
your watch.
Your timing stinks.
Mateo: Hey.
Adam: We looked everywhere.
Hayley's not here.
Neither is her car.
Liza: This doesn't
feel right.
Adam: Well, let's not be
borrowing trouble.
Maybe it's something simple,
like a flat tire or something.
Mateo: You know, I'm going
to check out one more place that
she might be.
If she shows up before I call
you guys, give me a call
on the cell phone, ok?
Thanks.
Adam: Ok.
Mateo: Excuse me.
Ryan: Ladies and gentlemen!
Ladies and gentlemen,
can I have your attention,
please?
Gillian: But before we begin,
we just want to make sure that
each of you has a Crystal Ball
2000 commemorative candle.
Opal: Oh, we sure do.
Brooke: Well, do my eyes
deceive me, or have the feuding
Marick brothers made peace?
Dimitri: Well, Brooke,
that happens to be your fault.
Edmund: Yeah.
Dimitri: You helped me
realize that Edmund and I have
a common cause.
Edmund: Unfortunately,
it's connecting Hayward
to Alex's disappearance.
Ryan: Ok.
Everybody have their candles?
All: Yeah.
Ryan: All right.
We'd like to thank you all
for coming, having such
an incredible turnout here
tonight.
Gillian: And as you all know,
we're all here to support
the Maria Santos Grey
Foundation, named for
Edmund Grey's late wife.
Ryan: And to honor Alex
Marick for her tireless work
that she has done on behalf
of the Andrassy foundation.
Gillian: Without
their inspiration, the
Crystal Ball would not be
possible.
Ryan: And without
your generous support,
there would be no future
for those whose lives depend
on the cutting-edge research
that your generous donations
make possible.
Gillian: This candle
represents a light shining
in the darkness, illuminating
our hopes and dreams
for the year to come.
Gillian: Let's all light
our candles and pass the flame
along.
Erica: Thank you.
Erica: Oh, you have some
nerve showing your little
two-faced lying face
around here.
Who let you out of jail?
Greenlee: My family
has clout.
Erica: Oh, that's nice.
Don't underestimate me.
If you value your freedom,
you will keep whatever it is
you think you know about
my daughter Bianca to yourself.
Greenlee: This is all
your fault, you twisted
little lesbo.
My life was perfect,
Leo was mine until you came
along and wrecked everything.
Bianca: Oh, please.
Leo would have figured you out
eventually.
My only mistake was not telling
him the truth sooner.
Greenlee: I'm going to pay
you back.
Bianca: How?
You've already lost everything.
Bianca: Thank you.
Ryan: Good evening.
Vanessa: Uh --
Ryan: Palmer and Vanessa.
I'm sorry.
Thank you for coming.
Vanessa: Oh, Ryan,
I am a little bit surprised
to see you hosting this soiree.
Palmer: Yeah, well,
I'm glad there isn't a punch
bowl around.
I'd hate to see a repeat of what
happened at your last formal
gathering.
Vanessa: Yes.
Well, you did dance divinely
though, darling.
Palmer: Yes, I did, actually.
Yes, of course, I was under
the influence of a narcotic.
Well, the police say that that
punch was laced with some kind
of drug.
Vanessa: Well, whatever,
it turned my pussycat into quite
a tiger.
Palmer: Yes.
And, of course, there is
the matter of my wife's stolen
necklace.
Ryan: Your loss
will be recouped.
I've already spoke with
your insurance broker, and I am
in complete cooperation
with the police department.
Vanessa: Hmm.
Ryan: I want you both to know
that I had nothing to do
with the guests being drugged
that night.
You have my word on that.
Vanessa: Yes, well,
talk is cheap, my dear,
but I'd prefer to have
my jewels back.
Palmer: Yes. So would I.
Keep your eye on this one,
Honey.
Vanessa: Ha.
Palmer: Lavery.
Adam: Ryan,
you have to put a new spin
on all this negative PR,
or incredibledreams.com will not
be salvageable.
Ryan: I'm on it.
I'll handle it.
Adam: Well, you better
because you work for me now.
If you get your hands dirty,
it affects my investment.
Greenlee: I'm not finished
with you, sweet little
LesBianca.
Bianca: Well, maybe not,
but you and Leo are so over,
it's like you were never even
together because, Greenlee,
you are toxic to anyone
you get near.
So don't go blaming me or Laura
for your breakup because
you pulled the plug yourself.
Greenlee: I love Leo.
Bianca: Well, that's really
too bad because Leo doesn't
love you.
Ryan: Ok, now that everyone's
candles are lit,
I hope,
I'd like to call for a moment
of silence, a moment to remember
our blessings and hope
for the future.
Hayley: Everyone's pretending
like you're still alive,
like you're off in Europe
having a good time, but I know
the truth.
I know that I killed you
and that Adam picked up
your body and threw it
into the ocean like so much
garbage.
No funeral,
no memorial.
How can you rest in peace when
you died this way?
Hayley: You know, you always
said that I was just like you,
that I
would mess up in life no matter
how hard I tried, and you were
right, but you were also wrong
because I'm
much worse than you
because I killed my mother.
[Mateo walks up to Hayley]
Hayley: Saying good-bye
to my mom.
Some sendoff, huh?
It's kind of ironic
because the one good memory
I have of Arlene is
being at the water, the beach.
Harry rented us a beach house
at Lake Michigan.
We spent the summer collecting
sea shells.
It was our one summer
of happiness.
Mateo: Are you done?
Have you finished saying
good-bye?
Because --
Hayley: I just feel
so helpless now.
I used to be able to go
to AA and take inventory,
and I can't even do
that anymore.
Mateo: Listen, I know
you feel like we talked
you into not telling Derek what
happened, you know,
Adam and Liza and I, but you got
to know it's for the best,
right?
Hayley: This is just
the darkest night of my life.
Mateo: Well, let me try
to make it lighter for you.
Or I can take you home.
Hayley: I don't want
to go home.
I want to go be with our friends
and dance and not think about
anything.
Mateo: Except about how much
I love you?
Hayley: Except how much
you love me.
Mateo: Come on.
Dixie: I can't do this.
I can't do this.
David: Stop. Stop. Stop.
Dixie: I can't do this.
David: No, Dixie,
I don't want to hear
your denials.
I don't want to hear your list
of reasons why we can't
be together.
I don't want you to try
and explain what's happening
here and push it away
as if it's not happening.
You can't do it.
You can't.
Dixie: Don't -- how dare you?
I have a right to my feelings,
ok?
David: No, exactly. Exactly.
So don't try to disown them.
Dixie,
we're drawn to each other.
We want one another.
You can't stop what's happening
here, Dixie.
You can't fight it with words.
This is real.
It's as real as --
as the moon pulling the tides,
as real as the sound
of our hearts beating.
Dixie, if you need to say
anything, just say that
you surrender.
[Waltz plays]
Erica: Thank you, Dimitri.
I wish this dance would
never end.
Marcus: Hey, Bianca.
Bianca: Hey, Marcus.
Marcus: Wow.
You look beautiful tonight.
Bianca: Thank you.
Marcus: So would you dance
with me?
Bianca: Aren't you afraid
I'm going to get sick all over
your shoes?
Marcus: Well, no,
I didn't bring my flask with me,
actually, so --
Bianca: And I've sworn off
drinking.
Marcus: So, that's a yes?
Marcus: A yes?
Bianca: Actually, Marcus,
I'm going to have to pass.
Marcus: Bianca,
what is the matter?
What's wrong?
Bianca: It's a loyalty issue.
Shannon: Strike out?
[Marcus sighs]
Marcus: No.
I just don't get her.
I don't know.
Shannon: And you're not
going to, so just give it up
and dance with me.
Edmund: Donald Steele,
the king of the tabloids.
How'd you get past security?
I see.
You still digging up dirt
for "The Exposer"?
Donald: Well, a guy's got
to earn a living, huh?
Edmund: Yeah, but where's
the challenge, Donny?
These are my friends.
Take it easy.
Enjoy the food.
Donald: Yeah, you betcha.
Greenlee: Donald,
it's been ages.
Donald: Hey, Greenlee.
Shrimp puff?
Greenlee: I've got the scoop
of the season, and I'm giving it
to you gift wrapped.
Donald: Yeah?
Gimme, gimme, gimme.
Greenlee: Not here.
In private.
Donald: Right.
Ryan: Well, everybody seems
like they're having a good time.
Gillian: And you're wearing
your best party face.
Taking care of the guests
as if you hadn't a care
in the world.
But I know your heart's not
in it.
Ryan: I'm that obvious?
Gillian: Only to me.
I know how much you hate having
to watch Adam run your company.
Ryan: I did what I had to do,
Princess.
Gillian: You did it for us.
And I know how much it's costing
you and how brave you are.
Do you have any idea how much
I love you this very second?
Ryan: Show me.
Greenlee: Don't worry,
Leo, I'm not here to throw
myself at your feet or beg
you to take me back.
Leo: Good,
because it's not going
to happen.
Greenlee: I just wanted
to say good-bye.
After tonight, I won't be
a burden to you anymore.
I'm just sorry it had to end
like this.
Opal: Hey, there, handsome.
How would you like to cut a rug
with your Mama?
Tad: No, Mama.
I need to take a rain check.
I'm looking for Dixie.
Opal: Hmm.
Now that you mention it,
I haven't seen her all evening.
Tad: Well, something tells me
I'd better find her.
Would you excuse me?
Opal: Of course.
Catch you later.
Hayley: Hey.
Liza: Hey.
Well, finally.
Hayley: Oh, sorry.
Adam: Sweetheart,
thank God you're all right.
Hayley: No need to panic.
Adam: What kept you?
Hayley: Well, a ghost.
I went to the yacht.
I wanted to make peace
with Arlene and lay some flowers
on the water and --
Adam: Sweetheart, I know this
has been hell for you.
But I swear,
we've done the right thing.
Hayley: I hope so.
You know, I was just thinking,
the way I can move on
in my own life is to celebrate
somebody else's, and Maria is
the reason we're here
and celebrate all the good work
she did.
Adam: Well, that's not
the only thing we have
to celebrate tonight.
Liza: What's that?
Adam: I have
a little surprise.
I wanted to wait for Hayley
to arrive first.
Mateo: What are you plotting,
Adam?
Adam: No, no, no,
nothing nefarious.
I gave you my word.
I would like to present here
the exhibit a.
This is my old good friend,
the honorable
Judge Elwood Mayhew.
Hayley: Hello.
Mateo: Hello.
Liza: Judge Mayhew?
Adam: Yes.
Liza, New Year's Eve generally
signifies out with the old,
in with the new, and we do have
r -- still have our marriage
license, so, if you're willing,
the judge has volunteered
to marry us here tonight.
Liza: You're not serious?
Adam: Oh, am I not?
Well, Liza,
I want to --
I want you to be my wife
for the new millennium.
I'm going to walk into the next
century with you at my side.
I can't guarantee that we'll
always be as happy as we are
right now,
but it's bound to be
one hell of a trip.
What do you say?
Liza: I'd say that a woman
has to be crazy to marry
you once, much less three times.
Which means I suppose
I'm certifiable because I can't
wait to be your wife.
Adam: Does that mean
we're on?
Liza: Yes.
I will marry you,
tonight.
Adam: Mmm.
Hayley: Look at them, Mateo.
They're as blissed-out
as we were on our wedding day.
Adam: Well, Elwood, you have a wedding to perform.
Judge Mayhew: Let's all
adjourn inside and I'll have
a look at that marriage license.
Adam: All right.
Right this way.
Vanessa: Hayley, dear,
may I have a word with
you in private?
Hayley: I'm afraid I don't
have any time.
Vanessa: I suggest you take
the time, dear.
Hayley: What do you want?
Vanessa: You're not fooling me.
Hayley: What?
Vanessa: You heard me,
and don't play coy with me.
You're harboring some secret
about Arlene, and I know what
it is.
David: We want the same exact
thing, Dixie.
We want each other.
Dixie: What I want
is irrelevant.
What's right is what matters,
ok?
David: It wasn't right just
now when we touched,
when we kissed each other?
Dixie: Just because I feel
something doesn't mean that
I have to act on it, ok?
I have a conscience.
Just because I feel something
doesn't mean I have to give
in to my emotions.
David: Why?
What is wrong
with your emotions?
What is stopping you?
Dixie: Me. I am.
I'm stopping me.
We can't do this, ok?
I have these alarms going off
inside my head.
This is wrong.
I'm not going to do this again.
We can't do it.
David: You're all
for the truth, aren't you,
Dixie?
You want to know what's going
to happen when you go
home tonight?
While you're getting ready
for bed, you're going to be
thinking of me.
You're going to relive
our kisses a thousand times
before you go to sleep, if
you do go to sleep.
Then we're going to meet in each
other's dreams and we're going
to make love until the sun
comes up.
And tomorrow night,
we're going to do it all over
again because awake or asleep,
we're going to find a way
to be together.
Tad: Gillian?
Gillian: Yes.
Tad: Have you seen Dixie
anywhere
Gillian: No.
Actually, I haven't seen
her for ages.
She went to the turret to fetch
my notes for the speech
I'm making later.
Tad: Turret?
Gillian: Yeah.
It's this little tower beyond
the garden.
Tad: I know what it is.
I just can't believe
you have one.
I'll take it from here,
just look for the moat.
Dixie: Let me make something
very clear to you.
I love Tad.
I love my husband.
It is within my power to say
no to you and to stay faithful
to him, ok?
David: I know that
you believe that, Dixie,
but the reality is this.
It is completely out
of your control.
Believe me, I know what
it's like to want someone
so badly that you would risk
everything for that person.
I have waited my entire lifetime
for this very moment in time
to be here right now with you.
I have never wanted another
woman -- no.
I have never needed another
woman the way that I need you,
Dixie.
Dixie: You can't have
what you want.
I'm sorry, it's not possible.
David: I don't believe that,
and I know deep down
in your heart, neither do you.
[Telephone rings]
Leo: Happy almost new year.
Greenlee: Leo, it's me,
Greenlee.
Leo: Hanging up.
Greenlee: No, please! Please.
I just need you to find Gramps
and tell him that I said
good-bye.
Leo: You going somewhere?
Greenlee: It's not important.
Just tell Gramps that
I love him, and do me a favor?
Would you drop by the loft
and pick up Happy and take care
of him for me?
He's got a well check
at the vet's on Wednesday.
Leo: Greenlee,
are you drunk?
Greenlee: I haven't got
much time.
Be happy, Leo. I love you.
I'm the one who should have
drowned, not Laura.
Leo: What?
I can't hear you.
Greenlee: Ok, Leo.
Get the car from the valet,
take the expressway to the dock,
catch the first launch out,
and you've got a half an hour
to save my life.
Laura: What was that all
about?
Leo: Damned if I know.
Ryan: All right.
If everyone's set with
their friends, loved ones,
spouses, significant others,
we're getting ready to start
the countdown to the year 2001.
All right!
Judge Mayhew: Are we ready
to begin?
Shall we take our places?
Vanessa: Hayley,
your mother physically assaulted
me the day before Ryan's
yacht party.
And then she tried to extort
money from me, and when I would
not comply, she threatened
to get back at me.
Now, I know that your mother
stole my jewels.
Hayley: If you'll excuse me,
Vanessa, my father's getting
married.
Vanessa: No.
I want retribution.
I want satisfaction.
I want the return of my jewels.
Hayley: Well, I'm sorry.
I really can't help you.
Vanessa: Do you know
where she is?
Hayley: No. I haven't a clue.
Adam: Hayley!
Come on. We're waiting.
Vanessa: Hayley,
I'm going to find Arlene.
I'm going to track her down like
a dog, and you're going to help
me, dear.
Hayley: Give it up, Vanessa!
You're never going to find
Arlene no matter how hard
you try.
Vanessa: Really? Why not?
Hayley: Because she's dead!
Erica: Bianca.
Bianca,
it's almost the new year.
This is a time for fresh starts
and new beginnings.
Honey, of course I wanted
you to be here with me tonight.
But, my goodness,
you're always saying you hate
parties and the public eye,
so naturally, I thought
you would feel this was
a crashing boor.
Ryan: All right, everyone!
10-Second countdown!
Come on, in 10 --
All: Nine, eight --
Donald: Erica!
Scoop the scoop.
All: Six, five --
Donald: How do you feel about
your darling daughter being gay?
All: Happy New Year!
[Donald laughs]

ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Leo: To Greenlee Smythe.
Greenlee: Where are you, Leo?
Ryan: I think that this party
can get along just fine
without us.
Erica: Tell him
it's not true.
Bianca: You want me to lie?
