Dixie: You want to make me
an offer?
David: A business proposal.
Dixie: You've got
attention.
David: Dixie, you're great
with people.
And from what I know
of your home life, you're
a terrific manager.
Dixie: Oh, yes.
I can tie Tad's tie and make
a lunch and check math homework
all at the same time.
David: Well, then I have
the dream job for you.
Dixie: Domestic engineer?
David: Saving lives.
In a roundabout way.
You see, there's this coalition
that's struggling, getting
on its feet.
One of the co-founders is never
available.
The other works 24/7 and is
drowning in paperwork.
Dixie: Hmm, your average
workaholics.
David: Driven, but not
totally possessed.
What this organization needs is,
well, organization.
So we need somebody who can,
I guess, create a computer
database, download and update
files, track phone calls,
keep the office humming.
Dixie: Hmm, your average job
without a soul.
David: Oh, wrong.
You'd also be involved
on the P.R. Side --
fundraising, schmoozing
contributors, doing some major
hand-holding.
Dixie: Whose hand would I be
holding?
David: Well, most likely
the guy who's drowning
in paperwork.
Dixie: You w ant me to come
and work for you at the Andrassy
Foundation.
David: How did you know?
Dixie: Wild guess.
David: You interested?
Dixie: I don't know.
Working side by side
with the brilliant but volatile
Dr. Hayward?
David: What's life
without a few risks?
Becca: Ooh!
Who -- who does she think
she is?
She cannot talk toe that
way, ok?
I'm not some country milk maid
that she can just step all over!
[Tap on window]
Becca: What?
What --
oh, my --
what are you doing outside
my window?
Leo: Becca, I had to see you.
Becca: Did you ever hear
of a front door?
Leo: Would you have let
me in?
Becca: No, I wouldn't.
Leo: Becca, come on.
Please, I'm stuck.
I climbed up the trellis, but it
broke.
I just wanted to apologize
for the way my mother
treated you.
Come on, I'm risking my own skin
here, Becca.
Please just give me a hand.
Becca: Oh, I'd be happy to.
Leo: No, Becca, come on,
don't!
Ah!
Gillian: I am so happy,
Grandmama.
I'm happier than I've ever been
in my entire life.
Eugenia: I remember lovely
summer days, long summer days
with your grandfather before
we were married.
Yes, boating on the river
and picnics.
And then, of course, parting is
such sweet sorrow.
Gillian: See, Ryan
and I never have to say good-bye
to each other anymore
because we have this.
Eugenia: Isn't that one
of those machines that Edmund
uses?
Gillian: Mm-hmm.
It's a laptop computer, and now
we can send e-mails to each
other, e-love letters.
Eugenia: Oh, I don't think
a computer will ever take
the place of sealing wax
and scented notepaper.
Gillian: Well, they do have
a romance of their own.
Love floating through
cyberspace,
arriving at its destination
with the touch of a keystroke.
Eugenia: Don't you and Ryan
intend to keep your romance
a secret until you have a chance
to ask Jake for a divorce?
Gillian: Oh, absolutely.
Eugenia: Well, then aren't
you afraid that your words might
be intercepted as they float
through this air?
Gillian: Well, see,
Ryan thought of that,
so he created a special address
that only he can access
with a password, and I have
a special code name.
So when he receives his first
e-mail, it'll be signed
by his lady love Rapunzel.
Eugenia: Rapunzel.
Greenlee: "Rapunzel,
Rapunzel, let down your hair.
And I'll grant your wish over
cyber air."
[Greenlee chuckles]
[Door opens]
Ryan: Greenlee.
You're still here.
Greenlee: Ryan, I thought
you had errands to run.
Adrian: Yeah, we snatched him
up in the parking lot.
Mateo: So how's
the Incredible Dream biz going?
Greenlee: Oh, it's going
pretty well.
I was just downloading
the latest hit.
Ryan: You guys want a drink
or something?
Adrian: Yeah, I'll take
a longneck.
Ryan: Mateo?
Mateo: No, I'm good, thanks.
Adrian: Oh, come on.
Live a little.
You're getting hitched tomorrow.
Mateo: Hey, man,
life's a party.
Greenlee: All right, boys.
I'll be your server.
What do you want?
Ryan: I got light beer
and regular.
What do you want?
Mateo: All right, I'll have
one.
Yeah, I'll take one.
Twist my arm.
Greenlee: Oh, yeah.
Bartender: What's
your pleasure?
Arlene: Manhattan,
please -- sweet.
Do I remind you of someone?
Bartender: I --
Arlene: Think To Catch
a Thief," "Rear Window,"
"High Society."
Bartender: Uh --
Arlene: All right.
Grace Kelly before she married
Rainier, before she chubbed out.
It's Arlene.
Fooled you, didn't I?
Bartender: Wow, I didn't
recognize you.
Arlene: Yeah, well, I got
the full glam treatment
for my man, the silver fox over
there.
Bartender: Ah.
Arlene: Manicure,
pedicure, facial -- the whole
thing.
Bartender: Nice.
Arlene: If this doesn't raise
his flag past half mast,
I'm hauling him off
to the morgue.
What the hell is she doing here?
Adam: Hey, you. Come here.
See that young lady up
by the entry there?
Here's 100.
Throw her out.
Adam: I told you, get rid
of her.
Maitre d': Excuse me, Miss --
Hayley: Hi. Sorry.
I'm going to be staying.
Could you get me maybe
an iced tea, lot of lemon?
Thanks so much.
Hello.
Fancy finding you at
your favorite Gotham eatery.
Adam: First Erica, now you.
You track me all the way
from Pine Valley?
Hayley: Yeah, right,
I followed your scent.
What is that called again --
self-destruct?
Adam: Just tell me I look
like hell and leave me alone.
Hayley: You look like hell,
and I'm waiting on that
iced tea, remember?
F.Y.I. -- I didn't follow
you here.
Adam: Sure.
Erica tell you to come
and rescue me?
Hayley: No, and according
to my almanac, the sun doesn't
rise and set on you.
Maitre d': Here you go.
Hayley: Oh, thank
you so much.
Here you go. Keep the change.
Maitre d': Thanks.
Hayley: I'm in town
with Brooke doing a little
last-minute shopping
for my wedding.
Adam: Oh.
It's next month, isn't it?
Hayley: It's tomorrow --
as if you didn't know.
Anyway, Brooke had some "Tempo"
business to take care of,
so I thought that I would take
a stroll down memory lane.
Do you remember the first time
you and Liza brought me here?
Adam: No.
Hayley: After my wedding
to Mateo in the hospital.
I think we sat right at this
table, if you remember.
Adam: It was another
lifetime.
Hayley: Yeah, for all of us.
Listen --
as beautiful and as perfect
as I know tomorrow's going
to be, that --
that little ceremony in that
tiny hospital room
meant the world to me
because you were there.
You were there for me when
I needed you.
W let me do the same thing
for you, please?
Greenlee: So what's
your fiancée doing tonight?
Mateo: She's in New York
with Brooke, doing a little
shopping.
Greenlee: Hmm.
Adrian: What about you?
Any pre-wedding jitters?
Mateo: Steady as she goes,
man.
Listen, if you've got a minute,
I need some help on
the Internet -- wedding-related.
Ryan: Greenlee, let's give
them some space.
We'll give you guys some space.
Greenlee: Hey, Ryan,
Ryan, Ryan, wait.
You think my name is weird?
Wait till you check out this
latest name on this request.
Mateo: Hey, listen, Ryan --
Ryan: Yeah?
Mateo: I know it's late
notice, but if you're not doing
anything tomorrow, I'd like
you to come to the wedding.
Ryan: Wow.
Did Hayley put you up to this?
Mateo: No, it's my idea.
Ryan: Really?
Mateo: Listen, I know you're
friends with Hayley
and she considers you a true
friend, and it'd make her happy
if you were there, so --
Ryan: Thank you, man.
I definitely will be there.
Mateo: All right, and you can
bring a date if you want.
Ryan: Oh.
Mateo: Ok?
Ryan: All right.
I'll probably come solo,
but thanks.
Adrian: Hey, Ryan,
don't you have a meeting
with the Outsource guy?
Ryan: Yes, I do, I do.
I just got to get my specs over
here.
Greenlee: Well, why don't
you check out this latest hit
first?
It might be something big.
Adrian: Well, you don't want
to keep this guy waiting.
He's got more money than
Fort Knox.
Ryan: I'm out the door
right now.
Greenlee: Don't worry
about me.
I'll handle the hit.
Gillian: Ok.
So say you want to send
an e-mail to your friend Lucia
in Ravenna.
Eugenia: Oh, I don't think
Lucia has one of those, no.
Gillian: Well, you can always
buy her one for her birthday.
Eugenia: Oh, my darling,
she hasn't acknowledged
her birthdays, let's see --
she's so vain about them --
till --
when was it?
When we first landed
on the moon.
Gillian: All right.
So here's how it works.
First, you go to
the mail center,
like that.
And then, you compose
your message.
See? Like that.
And then when you're done,
you just type in the address,
and then you just --
oh, no.
Eugenia: Well, what's wrong?
Gillian: Oh, no.
Oh, I can't believe it.
After all the trouble Ryan went
through explaining it,
I can't believe I'm so stupid.
Eugenia: What did you do?
Gillian: I sent the e-mail
to incredibledreams.com Instead
of his personal e-mail address,
so now anybody at
incredibledreams.com Who logs
on can read this message
and they'll all know that we're
back together again.
Eugenia: Oh, my God.
Are you going to call him?
Gillian: Yeah,
on his cell phone.
Just be there.
[Telephone rings]
Gillian: He left
his cell phone here.
[Ring]
Eugenia: Well, call him
at the loft, at the loft.
[Ring]
[Ringing stops]
Gillian: Grandmama, if I call
him there and somebody else
answers, they're going to know
something's up, so come,
you talk to him.
Ryan: All right, see you,
guys.
Matt, good luck tomorrow.
Mateo: See you in church.
Adrian: So, what can I do
for you?
Mateo: Ok, listen, my mom
needs a limo.
I want to get her a limo
from the house to the church
and then back to the reception,
you know, and then back, so --
Adrian: Cool, I can take care
of that.
I'll talk to my friend over
at Magic Carpet Limo.
Mateo: Can you do it on-line?
Adrian: Yeah, I'll do you one
better.
I'll get her a stretch.
Mateo: Excellent.
Greenlee: Hey, stand in line.
I'm downloading the latest hit.
[Telephone rings]
Greenlee:
incribledreams.com.
Eugenia: May I speak
to Ryan Lavery?
Greenlee: He just left.
I can take a message.
Eugenia: He's already left.
Eugenia: Well, Gillian,
Gillian, where --
Greenlee: How rude.
They didn't even say good-bye.
Hey, no cuts.
Adrian: She who hesitates
waits.
Becca: Is anything broken?
Leo: Only my pride.
Becca: Good thing that
rosebush broke your fall.
Leo: And tell Tad and Dixie
I'll pay for it
as soon as I get a job.
You know, I hear they were
looking for a night manager down
at the Burger Barn.
Becca: Go for it.
Leo: I was joking.
Becca: Well, I'm not, Leo.
I work with people at
the shelter every day who know
what it's really like to go
without.
Leo: You're a hard woman,
Becca.
But I didn't come here
for your sympathies.
I came here to apologize
for my mother.
She treated you like trash
and what she said was way out
of line.
I apologize.
Becca: Bull!
You do not.
She said the exact same thing
that you said,
that I am the terminally boring
virgin/cornpone queen.
You, your mother, Greenlee,
everyone at WRCW --
everyone thinks that they know
who I am.
But they don't know me at all!
They don't know what I'm like
on the inside.
You don't have a clue, Leo.
Dixie: Look, this job
offer -- you're not serious.
David: Of course I am.
Why not?
Dixie: Because I have
no experience doing foundation
work.
David: You were patient
liaison at P.V.H.
Dixie: And how do you know
that?
David: I did my homework.
Dixie: Well, being
an advocate for patients is one
thing.
David: Ruth said that
you were the best.
Dixie: But -- but I don't
have any experience doing public
relations work, and the closest
thing I've come to fundraising
is the school bake sale.
David: These are skills that
you can pick up as you go along.
Dixie: Seriously,
David, the Andrassy Foundation,
it funds vitally important
research for rare diseases.
The work that you do is serious
and important.
David: Look, Alex took
an indefinite leave of absence.
I don't have any idea when
or if she's even coming back
at all.
Dixie: Well, why don't
you just go through human
relations?
David: I don't want some
stranger onboard to pick up
the slack.
I need someone that I can trust.
Dixie: Well, surely you must
have a friend or a colleague.
David: You're it, Dixie.
You're the only friend I have
in this town.
I think we'd be great together.
So,
you want to take a chance on me?
Dixie: Well, what about Alex?
I mean, how's she going to feel
when she comes back and finds me
sitting in her chair?
David: Don't worry about
Alex.
I can handle her.
Dixie: When would you want me
to start?
David: Is yesterday too soon?
Dixie: You know,
I -- I really should discuss
this with Tad before I say
anything.
David: So you think
your husband will go
for the idea?
Dixie: Well, he will if it's
what I want.
David: Is it
what you want?
Dixie: I want a parking
space.
And I want a nice mug
with my name on it.
David: Well, I think I can
handle that.
Great.
David: Well, Gillian looks all upset.
Dixie: Oh, she does.
Oh, I'm just going to see what's
the matter.
I'll be right back.
David: Sure.
Dixie: Hey!
Hey, sweetie, are you ok?
Gillian: Yeah, I'm fine,
I'm fine.
Dixie: Are you sure?
Gillian: Don't you just hate
people who are always late?
Dixie: Oh, you're waiting
for somebody.
Gillian: Yeah, and she's
never on time.
Dixie: Well, listen,
the last time we were here,
I walked out on you,
so the least I can do is keep
you company.
Gillian: Oh, no, no, no.
No, you don't have to do that.
Dixie: Are you sure?
Gillian: Yeah.
David: Look, I'm sorry
to intrude, ladies, but --
[Telephone rings]
David: Your purse is ringing.
Dixie: Oh, it is, isn't it?
Well, I'm sorry.
I guess I left my shoe phone
at home.
[Ring]
Dixie: Oop.
Hello?
Oh, hi.
Can you hang on a second?
It's Ruth.
I'll take it in the lobby.
David: All right,
look, I'll hold our table.
Dixie: Ok. Thanks.
Gillian: Take your time.
David: So,
have you heard from Jake?
Gillian: David, I'm really
not in the mood for small talk.
David: No, you see,
now, if I would've said,
"boy, it's a scorcher outside,"
that would've been small talk.
But asking you about
your husband --
oh.
What's wrong, Princess?
Gillian: Don't call me that.
David: You've got that look
you used to have when we were
together,
like some guilty secret was
about to explode.
Am I getting warm?
Hayley: You never gave up
on me, Dad, and I will never
give up on you.
You need me now more than ever,
and I need you.
Adam: No, you don't need me.
I'm a contagion.
Hayley: You didn't kill
Uncle Stuart, and you're not
the only one who misses him.
Adam: I can't talk about him.
Hayley: Well, I'm not going
to bury you alongside of him.
I don't want to be an orphan.
Adam: You still have Arlene.
Hayley: She's a poison.
Adam: Well, what makes
you think I'm not?
Hayley: Arlene is dead to me.
I will never let her back
in my life.
But my father is alive.
When I was a little girl,
I never dreamed of playing
"here comes the bride"
because I was always too busy
cleaning up after Arlene.
And when I was older, I never
thought I'd get married
because watching Arlene cheat
on Harry just led me to believe
that there was no happily ever
after.
But then when I met Mateo
and I fell in love with him,
I realized that I could have
a happy ending, or at least
a fresh start.
I want you to be with me.
I want you to walk me down
the aisle when I start my new
life.
Adam: You don't need me.
Hayley: I will always need
you.
Always.
You're the only parent I have
left.
Harry is gone, Uncle Stuart's
gone.
Uncle Pork Chop, I'm sure,
will send me a nice,
funny telegram, but his life is
someplace else now.
Dad, please,
I need you to be with me.
Tomorrow, I'm going to be
a bride, again.
And I just --
I want you there
to hold my hand
and to walk me down the aisle
when the music starts.
And to tell me that you think
I'm beautiful.
And to cry when the minister
asks who gives the bride away.
And later at the reception,
when the music plays,
I just want to take off my shoes
and dance on your feet like
I never got a chance to do when
I was small.
[Adam hums]
[Hayley takes off her shoes and dances with Adam]
Arlene: Are you an actor?
Man: Gainfully unemployed.
Arlene: Oh, yeah?
Have I seen you in anything?
Man: A traffic jam.
Arlene: Ooh, is that one
of those avant-garde plays
they do off-Broadway?
Man: It's rush hour
on Columbus Circle.
I drive a cab part-time.
Arlene: Well, you're lucky
I came along.
How would you like to play
a starving artist, hmm?
Man: Not much of a stretch.
Arlene: Hope you're a quick
study.
Curtain's up in two minutes.
Hayley: Aren't we a hell
of a pair.
Adam: I lied, Hayley.
I do remember this restaurant.
I remember how happy you were.
And I want to see
you happy again
with Mateo.
Hayley: I want to see
you happy, too.
Dad, come with me.
Please, please.
Look, we'll check out
of your hotel, we'll call
Brooke, and we'll fly home.
Come on.
Come with me.
Come on.
Man: Stuart.
Stuart Chandler.
Hey!
Oh, we met last winter
at an art show in Soho.
The first time I'd seen
your work, you were kind enough
to have coffee with me after
and discuss my own fledgling
attempts at painting.
Hayley: I'm afraid
you've made a terrible mistake.
Man: Uh, no mistake.
I went home that nig,
threw out all my old canvases,
and started over.
Thanks to your inspiration --
the Marian series in
particular -- my work has this
vibrancy that wasn't there
before.
I get up in the morning
and I can't wait to get
at the brushes.
My wife even came back to me.
I owe you my life and my art,
Stuart.
You are truly an angel among us.
Bless you.
Adam: I'm -- I'm not Stuart.
I'm --
Stuart's my brother.
He's dead.
Mateo: Did you pull the limo
service up yet?
Adrian: No, not yet.
Greenlee: Must be the hit
from Rapunzel.
Mateo: Rapunzel?
Greenlee: Yeah, the latest
request of incredibledreams.
Must be a weird chick
from the look on your face.
Let me see.
Hey, where'd it go?
Adrian: System must've
crashed.
Greenlee: Uh-uh,
it's still up.
Adrian: Well, actually,
it hasn't.
System crashed, I'm telling you.
Greenlee: All right,
Mr. Spy-who-knows-it-all.
I'll give you your air space.
Later.
Mateo: Bye.
[Door closes]
Mateo: What was that?
Adrian: Oh, just a glitch
in the system.
Mateo: No, no, glitch,
glitch, glitch.
I'm your partner.
Don't hand me off.
What's going on?
Adrian: You don't want
to know.
Gillian: Just leave me alone.
David: Aren't you already
alone?
Jake is a thousand miles away.
Oh, Gillian, what did you get
yourself into this time?
Gillian: David, shut up.
Man: The stocks on
my web site are taking
a beating.
I'm looking to you to recoup
my losses.
Dixie: Hey, guys.
Who died?
Leo: You called my bluff,
Becca.
I had you classed, sorted,
and filed.
But you come from a good place,
a place that I can't get to.
You hold out your hand.
You're trusting. You're giving.
While I spin my wheels trying
to figure out the angle,
how to cash in my share.
You're the cup half full.
I'm the nasty taste
in your mouth you can't swallow.
Becca: There you go again.
You're talking in clichés
and you're assuming too much
of me.
I'm a normal person.
I have bad days and dark
thoughts just like everyone
else.
Leo: I find that hard
to believe.
Becca: Believe it.
You probably think that when
I found out my brother Robbie
died that I ran to church
crying, praying for his soul.
Look, I didn't go to church.
I didn't cry. I didn't pray.
I didn't even go to the funeral.
My parents thought I was
so overcome with grief.
But it wasn't that all.
Leo: What was it?
Becca: Well,
I didn't stop believing in God.
No, that would've been way too
easy.
But I hated him.
I hated him for taking
my brother's life before it had
even started.
Leo: You hated God?
Becca: Yeah.
I mean, I hated everything --
music at the grocery store,
stupid sitcoms on TV,
those ridiculous kids at school
where all they cared about was
the playoff games.
I mean, everything seemed
so empty, so pointless.
Leo: Like you just didn't
want to get up out of bed?
Becca: Like I didn't want
to do anything.
Scott -- he's taking this
so well.
I really don't know how
he's doing it.
I mean, I just -- I can't.
I honestly cannot believe that
Stuart is gone.
And he's being so strong,
arranging the funeral,
being there for Marian?
Leo: Well, maybe this hasn't
even hit Scott yet.
Becca: Maybe.
Or maybe he's just got a lot
more together than I ever could.
I mean, he's been through this
before with his mom.
Leo: I used to think that
Scott had this perfect life.
Becca: No one has that, Leo.
Leo: Well, yours seemed
pretty damn close.
Becca: Yeah, for a while.
Till my brother Robbie died.
I acted like a total brat, ok?
I --
I --
was such a mess.
I don't know how my parents
did it.
They had lost their oldest son
and they had to deal with me
walking around the house crying,
slamming doors.
I just -- I made it so hard
for everyone.
Leo: It sounds like you were
just feeling too much to even
keep it inside.
Becca: No, no.
I didn't want to be brave.
I wanted everyone to be
as miserable as I was.
My parents, they used to --
they used to come into my room
and sit on the edge of my bed,
holding my hand, saying that
Robbie was in -- was in heaven,
that his soul was ok.
I secretly hated them, too.
How could they be so accepting?
Their oldest son had
just died, damn it.
How could they lean back
on their faith when their son
was being lowered into
the ground?
I didn't understand it.
I just --
I hurt too much.
I was so wrapped up in my pain
and in my loss.
You know what?
A few weeks after the funeral,
I had this dream.
I dreamed that --
that Robbie and I, we were
on the back porch and we were
eating ice cream,
laughing and talking.
And all of a sudden he said,
"It's OK Freckles.
I'm all right."
Leo: But you still miss him?
Becca: Yeah, I still miss
him.
And sometimes I go to that dark
place, start feeling sorry
for myself.
Leo: Well, cut yourself
a break, Becca.
You lost your brother.
It changed your whole world.
Becca: You know what that's
like, don't you?
Dixie: Guys, there
a problem?
David: No, not at all.
I was just asking Gillian
if she heard from Jake.
Dixie: Oh!
Well, that's why Ruth called.
Jake finally got a call through
from Chechnya and he tried
to reach you at Wildwind.
Gillian: Is he ok?
He's not injured or anything?
Dixie: No, he's fine,
he's fine.
He's going to come home.
That's why he called
with the good news.
He's coming home.
Gillian: When?
Dixie: Well, I don't know --
one month to two, when
his rotation's over, I guess.
David: Congratulations,
Gillian.
You're getting your husband
back.
Gillian: Yeah, yeah.
Dixie: Isn't that great?
That's great news.
I should go and tell Tad.
I'm sorry.
David: All right, look, why don't I walk
you to your car?
Dixie: Oh, that would be
great.
Ok, Gillian, take care.
I'll see you later.
Mateo: Hey, listen,
man, whatever was on that
screen, I'd say it hit pretty
close to home, huh?
Adrian: Yeah, you could say
that.
Mateo: Want to talk about it?
Adrian: No.
Not with a guy who's getting married in the morning.
Come on, now.
Look, Mateo, I'll take care
of the limo for your family.
Mateo: Thank you.
Adrian: But right now I need
to track down Ryan and make sure
he rethinks his strategy.
Mateo: Oh, this is serious.
You're talking in code now.
What's going on?
Adrian: Listen, listen,
listen, you and Hayley fight
for what you got.
Really, I mean that.
Because as far as I can tell,
what you two have doesn't come
around very often.
Mateo: All right.
Man: Stuart Chandler is dead?
Hayley: Yeah, yeah.
You didn't know.
Look, could you do me a favor
and leave us alone, please?
Man: Of course.
You have my deepest condolences.
Your brother was a very special
man.
There will never be another one
like him.
Hayley: Dad, come on,
let's get out of here.
Adam: I'm not going with you.
I'm not going back
to Pine Valley.
Hayley: Look, I know that man
upset you.
He didn't know.
Adam: Oh, he was exactly what
I needed.
I was actually thinking that
I could actually go back
and start over.
Hayley: You can.
Adam: No.
Hayley: You can.
Adam: No, no.
Give it up.
I was never brother to Stuart.
I was never a father to you.
And if anybody asks, you have
a father but he's dead, ok?
Hayley: Dad?
Dad?
That's not going to help you.
Adam: Come on, pull up
a chair.
Watch the old man get faced.
I don't need you, Hayley.
All I need is a bottle
and a glass.
So go on!
Get out!
Arlene: Well.
That was a sordid little scene.
Yeah, let's face it, Adam --
whatever you say, do,
where you go, family, friends --
they swarm around you like flies
on a garbage heap.
I wish I could do something
to help you get rid of them.
Adam: Maybe you can.
Maybe you will.
Leo: You ok?
Becca: I guess so.
I don't really tell many people
that story.
Leo: I'm glad you told me.
Becca: I'm glad I did, too.
Some reason, I feel lighter.
Leo: You know, Becca,
you look a lot prettier
without your halo.
Becca: You put it there, Leo.
Leo: And you took it off,
just for me.
Come here.
Greenlee: Mr. Conroy.
Ryan and I are thrilled you want
to be a part of our venture.
Mr. Conroy: And you would be?
Greenlee: Greenlee Smythe.
I'm a consultant with
incredibledreams.com.
[Telephone rings]
Mr. Conroy: Oh, good.
Excuse me. Conroy.
Can't you handle it?
All right, give me 15 minutes.
Sorry, Lavery, I've got to get
back to my office.
But call me tomorrow and we'll
reschedule.
Greenlee: Nice meeting you,
Mr. Conroy.
Ryan: What are you doing
here?
Greenlee: Looking after
your investment.
I couldn't help hearing --
Ryan: Yeah, you never can.
Greenlee: Jake Martin's
coming home.
Gillian must be so ecstatic.
Adrian: Ryan, we need
to talk.
Ryan: Hey, I thought you were
back at the loft taking care
of business.
Adrian: Yeah, well,
business can wait.
We received a very interesting
e-mail this morning
on the web site from someone
named Rapunzel.
Does that name ring any bells?
Arlene: You know,
I've never understood the big
whoop about family anyway.
Usually, they're a big pain
in the rear,
asking you for money or putting
you on some guilt trip.
If I can do anything to cut
the ties that bind, count me in.
Adam: Ok.
I need you to help me turn them
against me -- Liza and Hayley,
Marian.
I need to make them hate me.
Arlene: Well, how can I do
that?
Adam: I've got a plan.
Let's do it.
Arlene: What?
Adam: Just follow me.
Arlene: Adam --
Adam, what?
Wait. Adam --
ON THE NEXT - - - -ALL MY CHILDREN
Jack: Have we ever met
before, Eliot?
Adrian: I know that Gillian
is your Rapunzel.
Hayley: I've got a really big
surprise for Mateo.
Alex: I just got a call
from Brooke.
She wants us to crash
the bachelor party.
Dimitri: You're going
to throw me out of the plane.
