Guy: "Have been hired
to help
the subject train
horse.
Scorpio."
Alex: Oh, hi.
Guy: Hi.
Alex: What are you
working on?
Guy: It's a -- training
schedule for Scorpio and --
and you.
Alex: Oh, you're kidding.
Let me see.
Hayley: I'm up.
Janet: Oh.
I didn't know you were there.
Hayley: I'm working.
I was -- I was trying to work.
I just --
I didn't get much sleep last
night.
Janet: Upset about testifying
against your father?
What did you say?
Hayley: I just -- you know --
told them that I -- I do believe
that Adam really loves all
of his kids.
Janet: Well, it sounds like
a fair answer.
Hayley: Ah, well, not when
that lawyer Leslie Coulson got
finished with it.
She even brought up that whole
mess about, you know,
Adam trying to influence
the judge to give Mateo and me
custody of Max.
Janet: Oh, Hayley, you did
the best you could.
Hayley: Oh, I promised Junior
that I wasn't going to trash
Adam in court, you know, and I'm
afraid that's exactly the way it
sounded.
You know?
I mean, you should've seen
Adam's face.
He really loves Colby.
He just wants to be her father.
That's all.
Janet: And he tries.
Hayley: I just wish he would
let us.
You know?
Instead of trying to manipulate
everybody all the time.
Arlene: Oh, sweetie.
I have just the thing for those
suitcases under your eyes.
Hey.
Hayley: Speaking
of suitcases, have you packed
yours yet?
Janet: Oh, Hayley, come on.
She's been great with Amanda,
keeping her spirits up.
Arlene: Oh, it's ok.
She's just cranky.
So it's Adam's fault, isn't it?
Huh?
He demanded too much.
I tried to protect you from him,
sweetie.
I really did.
Hayley: Yeah?
Arlene: Yeah.
That's why I never told you that
he was your father.
I wanted to spare you the pain.
And it looks like mom was right.
Aw.
Adam: A new hearing?
Hasn't the judge been paying
attention?
Colby's mine.
Barry, do something.
Stop this nonsense.
Barry: Not now, Adam.
Be quiet!
Judge: Dr. Martin,
are you prepared to pursue sole
custody given the new evidence?
Please, Dr. Martin.
The court is waiting.
Adam: Judge, this is absurd.
Colby is mine and Liza's.
Jake Martin has no claim.
Judge: Mr. Chandler,
not another word out
of you unless directed.
Mr. Shire, if you can't control
your client's husband, I'll have
him removed forcibly
if necessary.
Leslie: Your honor, this is
a difficult decision
for Dr. Martin.
If it pleases the court,
I'd like a moment to confer
with my client.
Judge: Very well.
I'll grant a five-minute recess
and five minutes means five
minutes, not a second longer.
Adam: How dare you come
into my house and kidnap
my daughter.
Liza: Adam --
Adam: I could've had
you arrested the minute
you walked in this courtroom.
Barry: Adam, let's go.
Adam: No.
You know you can't win, Jake.
So you go right ahead.
You hold my daughter
one last time.
Liza: Jake.
I knew Colby was fine with you.
I'm sorry.
Leslie: We can still win
this, Jake.
The judge was ready to give
you custody.
Jake: And then Liza announced
that Adam was Colby's real
father.
Leslie: It doesn't matter.
Your name is on Colby's birth
certificate.
You have been a terrific father
for almost a year.
Custody decisions are made
to benefit the child.
The best interest of the minor
is more important than
a biological link.
Based on the testimony that
the judge has already heard,
you are what's best for Colby.
Jake: Adam will fight us,
though --
Leslie: Let him --
we have a hell of a case against
Adam -- and Liza, for that
matter.
Adam has committed serious
crimes and it won't take much
to prove Liza is an unfit
mother.
Listen, I know this isn't easy
for you.
But requesting a new hearing is
the smart choice.
It will get ugly.
But in the end, you will have
custody of Colby.
Let me win this case for you.
I can do it.
Adam: Can't we press charges
against Jake for attempted
kidnapping?
Barry: Well, they've been
gone a few hours.
You have no proof that's what
Jake intended to do.
Adam: He took Colby!
Barry: Well --
Adam: What more do you need?
Barry: Well, let's wait
and see what Jake decides to do.
Adam: No!
I'm not a wait-and-see type.
You I know that.
I want results.
I want my daughter, and I want
you to make it happen.
You understand?
This isn't over until Colby
is mine.
Tad: When this is over,
you're going to lose --
everything.
Adam: You still fighting
your brother's battles?
Is that it?
You want to take another swing
at me?
Come on. Come on.
Be my guest.
Tad: I don't care how much
DNA evidence you whine about.
Jake is Colby father.
Adam: No, Jake is
a kidnapper.
Were you in on this?
Maybe we can add conspiracy
to kidnap to the charges
against you.
Tad: You idiot.
There never was a kidnapping.
I personally called Liza to tell
her that Colby was all right.
Adam: Liza --
did you know Colby was safe
and not tell me?
Liza: I didn't want to create
a scene, not that you need me
to do that.
Is that what's happening here,
everybody going for another
round?
Adam: Colby could've been
in danger, and you let me --
Liza: Well, you would've
called the swat team.
You would've called the national
guard.
I think enough damage has been
done.
Adam: I had a right to know.
Liza: You used up all
your rights.
Leslie: What you decide today
will have repercussions
for the rest of your life.
Don't make the wrong decision.
Jake: What would that be?
Leslie: To lose your chance
to be Colby's father.
Listen, if Adam wins, that's it.
We have no options.
Jake: So if we continue,
how will you stop him?
Leslie: Oh.
Adam and Liza are a lawyer's
dream.
I mean, the testimony against
Adam was damning enough.
But I worked for Adam.
I know where to dig
for the dirt.
And it won't be hard.
Jake: Liza will --
Leslie: Oh, please --
Jake: She doesn't --
no, she --
Leslie: Please.
She may be the image
of motherhood right now,
but this is a small town.
I know the gossip.
Didn't she break up tad
and Dixie's marriage?
Home wreckers don't get much
sympathy in cases like this.
Trust me.
I know how to play the game.
It's my specialty.
Jake: Destroying people?
Leslie: Winning.
And we can do it.
Once I get them on the stand,
the court will have more than
enough reason to grant you sole
custody.
Come on.
What do you say?
Let me go for it.
I promise you we'll win.
Jake: You're pretty
confident, counselor.
Leslie: You have got a great
case, not to mention me, to make
the judge see that.
Judge: This hearing is now
in session.
Counsel, are your clients ready
to proceed?
Dr. Martin, do you wish
to pursue sole custody of Colby
Martin?
Liza: Your honor,
may I say something?
Judge: If you must.
Liza: I just wanted
to request that my child leave
the room for the duration
of the hearing.
Judge: On what grounds?
Liza: Well, I just think that
she can sense the hostility
here.
I don't think it's good for her,
for any of us.
And if it would be appropriate,
the nanny could take her home
for the duration of the hearing.
I would appreciate it.
Judge: I'll allow that.
Jake: No.
Hayley: Excuse me?
Arlene: Oh, honey, you got
to admit that Harry was a much
better father than Adam could've
ever have been.
Hayley: Yeah.
Harry was the most loving man
I've ever met, which is more
than I can say for the rest
of the parental units I've
encountered.
[Telephone rings]
Hayley: Hello.
Janet: I'm just going
to finish cleaning up.
Arlene: Oh, Janet,
are you going to be doing
the laundry today?
Janet: I could.
Arlene: Great. Thanks.
Hayley: Well --
[Hayley sighs]
Hayley: Yeah.
I mean, it sounds amazing,
but now is not a really good
time for me to go on a location
shoot, you know?
Personal reasons.
Yeah, listen, we can discuss it
at the office when I get
there, ok?
Yeah, right. Bye.
Arlene: "Location shoot"?
That's very glam.
Hayley: Eavesdropping,
Arlene?
Arlene: It's a small room.
Where do they think they're
going to send you, hmm?
Hayley: Jamaica.
And I'd love to go but I just
can't right now.
Arlene: Jamaica?
Well, who in their right mind
would pass up a free trip
to Jamaica?
Hayley: Me.
Arlene: No, you can't.
Hey, I could go with you.
I'm sure there is room
in the budget for a girl Friday.
What do you think?
I've been told I've got an eye
for fashion, and where do
you think you got your sense
of style, hmm?
Hayley: I don't think so.
Besides, don you have a job
you should be getting back to?
Arlene: Hmm.
Dalton, Jamaica.
Jamaica wins.
Let's pack.
Hayley: Read my lips --
you're not going to Jamaica.
Arlene: Why not, Hayley?
I mean, it's the perfect
opportunity.
It's a great time.
It's all on the company dime.
I can see it now -- lux
accommodations, cabana boys --
Hayley: Cool it.
Arlene: Pina Coladas --
virgin, of course.
Hayley: Arlene, you're not
going!
Besides, I'm not going.
I promised Brooke when she left
for China I'd stay here and keep
an eye on Janet, ok?
Arlene: Oh, honey, you got
me now.
I can stay here and watch Janet
for you.
Mateo: No, you won't.
Guy: Oh -- oh!
I'm just getting used to this
software.
Let me see if I can pull this
back up.
Yeah. There we go.
Alex: This is our training
schedule?
Guy: Well, it looks a lot
more serious than it is.
It's a diary.
We input Scorpio's response
to all our training methods,
different bits, food,
supplements, medication.
It's a kind of a bottom line
for changes we'll have to make
along the way, and we will be
making some changes.
Alex: Wow.
You're organized.
Guy: Well, I find the more
organized I am, the smoother
the training goes and,
plus, I'm kind of a gadget
junky.
You have questions?
Alex: Yeah, tons.
Guy: Ok. Here, have a seat.
Take a look.
Alex: Ok.
All right.
I can't read any of this
without my glasses.
So, where do we start?
Guy: Well, I longed him this
morning to get some of the barks
and squeals out of him.
Later on today, I'm going to put
you in the chute with him.
Get him used to voice, see how
he responds to your command.
Alex: When do you think I can
ride him?
Guy: A couple of weeks,
I hope.
He's young, he's fit,
he's feeing good, and you seem
like a pretty capable rider.
Alex: A couple of weeks,
really.
I mean, I don't know.
That seems a little soon.
Guy: Well, horse training
isn't an exact science, but it
depends on the horse.
I had a friend who had
a spirited gray, very much like
Scorpio, broke him in a couple
of days, and he was riding him
like mad around the moors
of Derbyshire like they'd been
together for years.
Alex: What did you say?
Guy: Well, he had
a dapple-gray, spirited like
Scorpio.
Alex: No, no, no.
Derbyshire.
How did you know how to say
that?
I mean, it's a -- it's
an unusual British word.
Most Americans pronounce it
incorrectly.
Guy: I'm not the man
you think I am.
Alex: I didn't mean
to offend you.
Guy: No, no offense taken.
I love horses and I'm from out
west, but I'm not exactly
a cowhand.
Alex: No.
I didn't mean that.
It's just that most Americans --
they don't travel so much and --
Guy: I learned a long time
ago never to assume anything
about anybody.
Well, and take you for example.
Alex: What about me?
Guy: Well, Dr. Marick, you seem like a nice lady.
You're smart and kind, but
I bet you have a secret or two.
Alex: Why would you say that?
Guy: Well, it's nothing
personal.
It's just a fact of life.
Most people have more than one
face.
Alex: You make it sound
as though everyone has something
to hide.
I mean, that hasn't been
my experience at all.
Guy: Then it must be nice
to be able to take the world
at face value.
You must feel very safe.
Alex: How did you know how
to say "Derbyshire"?
Guy: A friend of mine
and I got invited to ride
in a steeplechase.
I spent a couple of weeks over
there cruising the
peak district, sitting
on my bonnet and eating bangers.
Right?
Alex: Mm-hmm.
Guy: Of course, if I had said
"bonnets" and "bangers" back
home, I'd get run out of town.
Alex: You might get
propositioned.
Guy: Oh.
Still, you Brits have the oddest
way of saying --
Alex: We do?
Guy: Things -- yeah.
Alex: Oh.
Tell me, in this great nation
of yours, what language is it
you speak?
It's English, right?
I mean, didn't --
Guy: Well, yeah.
Alex: We bring that over?
Well, maybe it's you that has
the oddest way of saying things.
Guy: Oscar Wilde said
Americans and English share
everything except a common
language.
Alex: Two nations separated
by a common language.
You're a bit of a renaissance
man.
Guy: You mean for a cowboy?
[Alex laughs]
Guy: You want cowboys,
try the Aussies.
Take a spin in the outback.
They're another breed
altogether, eh?
Mate?
Alex: Yeah.
[Guy laughs]
Arlene: You always were one
to make a dramatic entrance.
Mateo: How you doing?
Hayley: Better, now that
you're here.
What's up?
Mateo: Nothing.
I got some interesting news
from down south today.
Georgia to be exact.
Yeah, I called the carpet
factory.
It seems they don't know
anything about your leave
of absence.
Arlene: Well, you must've
talked to Cheryl Lynn
in personnel.
She's always been jealous of me.
As we say in the biz, she lies
like a rug.
You can trust a word she says.
Hayley: Really?
Mateo: Word is
you got fired.
Yeah, she wasn't really popular
down there, not at all.
It had something to do
with her boss dying
in unusual circumstances
that directly involved Arlene.
Arlene: Don't listen to him.
Don't listen to him, sweetie.
I didn't kill anyone.
Jake: I've made my decision,
your honor.
Judge: Very well.
If both parties agree to show
restraint, the child will remain
for the time being.
Mrs. Chandler.
Dr. Martin, the court waits
for your answer.
Jake: Colby's my life.
Yeah.
Every day she reminds me of what's important, not to take
anything for granted.
And
when she looks at me,
I see that she trusts me
and I --
I never want to lose that light
in her eyes.
As a parent, I've
tried to teach her
and she ends up teaching me
about life and love,
in particular.
So I make this decision knowing
that I'm doing the right thing.
Judge: Dr. Martin?
Jake: If I win custody,
Colby
will suffer.
Adam will fight me with
everything.
I mean, this stuff, these court
appearances, petitions,
depositions, restraining orders.
And these are just -- these are
just the legitimate means.
And I love her --
I love her too much to put
her through that.
She'll suffer.
To have two pants fighting
over her will --
will damage the child,
and I --
I won't do that.
I love her too much.
I won't pursue custody.
Leslie: Don't do this, Jake.
We can win.
Jake: Colby will lose.
Leslie: But there are ways --
Jake: This is what's best
for Colby.
Liza: Jake, you are the most
loving and generous man I have
ever known.
And I know that she's
not a part of you,
but she will always
be a part of your spirit.
I know that this was a really
hard decision for you to make.
Jake: It's the only one
I could make.
I don't want her torn apart.
Liza: I will never forget
the sacrifice that you made.
Jake: I did what I had to do.
You'd do the same.
Please.
Liza: Ok.
Jake: Take this.
Liza: Ok.
Jake: Here.
Judge: Based on Dr. Martin's
answer, this case is dismissed.
Court is adjourned.
Tad: Wait -- wait a minute.
Your honor, you can't do this.
You can't just drop the case.
I mean, not after what he's
done.
I mean, he's practically raped
a woman.
The man's a criminal.
Judge: This is a civil
court, sir.
As much as I would love to help
put Mr. Chandler in jail,
that's a matter for the criminal
courts.
Tad: So that's it?
Judge: Well, I've notified
the district attorney
of the allegations made against
Mr. Chandler.
Tad: So charges will be
filed?
Judge: That's up
to Mrs. Chandler.
Good luck.
Tad: Liza, listen to me.
You got to do it.
You understand?
You cannot let him get away
with this, not after what he's
done to you, after what he's
done to all of us.
Adam: My family is none
of your business.
You leave my wife alone.
Tad: Your wife is going
to help me put you in jail.
Hayley: Well, Arlene,
you've finally done it.
I'm shocked.
I mean, you've managed to rage
through all the other
commandments, but I never really
ought you were capable
of murder.
Arlene: It's not what
you think.
I didn't -- I didn't kill him
in cold blood.
Janet: Was it in
self-defense?
Arlene: No, it -- Ron --
Mr. Littlejohn, he died
of a heart attack.
He died in my arms.
Hayley: Of course.
You were having an affair
with your boss.
How convenient for you.
Arlene: No, it wasn't like
that.
The man came on to me
constantly.
I mean, I'm used to attention
from the opposite sex, but this
was too much.
Mateo: You can do better than
that, Arlene, come on.
Arlene: He forced himself
on me.
I didn't know what to do.
My job was on the line.
I gave in.
I had to.
Hayley: Why didn't you just
file a complaint with human
resources?
Arlene: He owned the company.
There was nothing I could do.
Mateo: Come on.
No business today tolerates that
degree of sexual harassment.
That doesn't wash.
Arlene: You don't understand.
You just don't understand.
He ran that company like his own
personal club.
I mean, you know how those old
boys are.
Slapping your fannies
and calling you sugar all
the time.
I mean, no one would listen
to me.
I'm shattered by this.
Janet: Well, of course
you are.
I mean, to have someone
die right in front of you.
What a horrible, horrible thing.
Arlene: I'll never forget it.
Never.
He just cornered me one night
while we were working late.
Pushed me into the cutting room
and just took me there.
It was over in seconds.
By the time he stopped gasping,
I realized he was dead.
Mateo: He -- he -- I'm sorry.
He died in your arms?
Just like that?
Arlene: Yeah, yeah -- before
I even knew what was going on,
before I could even call
for help.
Hayley: And it was just that
one time, right?
Arlene: Hayley!
Hayley, yes, once.
It was terrifying.
Hayley: Yeah.
As I recall, you were never much
for repeat performances.
Mateo: She's lying.
I -- I spoke to the office
manager.
She said you were coming
on to your boss for weeks.
Everybody knew about it.
Even his wife.
Arlene: Oh, her!
Oh, well, you know what?
She has been after me since
the beginning.
Mateo: She used to call
the house, their house, at all
hours of the night.
And when the wife would pick up,
she would hang up.
Arlene: She's obviously
lying.
Mateo: They had caller ID.
And guess who's number
turned up?
Hayley: Hmm.
Ooh, Arlene's?
Arlene: Look, I may have
called the house once or twice.
I was the company accountant.
I worked very closely with Ron.
Hayley: Yes, you've made that
pitifully clear.
Arlene: Hayley, you got
to believe me.
I'm being painted as a jezebel
here.
I'm -- I'm the victim.
Guy: Good.
[Scorpio neighs]
Guy: Good, good, good.
All right, now see how
he responds to your whoa.
Alex: Whoa.
Whoa.
Hey.
Guy: Good.
That's good.
That's enough.
That's enough.
That's enough for today.
Good.
We'll leave him outside.
Let him cool down a little bit.
All right?
Alex: Oh, he's great,
isn't he?
He's so responsive.
Guy: Yeah, maybe we'll try
some poles tomorrow, see how
he jumps.
Alex: Ok, good.
Guy: You did real nice out
there.
Alex: Yeah?
Guy: Huh? Did you feel how
the horse felt your confidence?
Alex: Mm-hmm, yeah, a little
bit, but, you know, I mean,
I'm a good rider, but I would
never try to train a horse.
That's your job.
Guy: It's going to get
better.
You want a cup of tea?
Alex: Sure, if you think
you can make one.
Guy: Well --
Alex: Oh, Dr. Wheat's coming
by later to have a look at him.
Guy: Good.
He may have a tiny little stone
bruise.
I don't think it's very serious,
but I do want the vet to take
a look at him.
I also want the farrier to come
by, too.
Alex: Oh, he doesn't need new
shoes already, does he?
Guy: Well, I want to put him
on lightweight steel.
Give him more protection when
we put him out on the trail.
Alex: Ok.
Guy: Now, here's to Scorpio.
May we learn as much from him
as he learns from us.
Alex: Hmm.
Guy: Hmm.
Ah.
Ah -- whoo.
Alex: You don't know
the first thing about making
tea, do you?
Guy: Well --
Edmund: So this is what
intensive training looks like.
Alex: Oh, no, no, no.
I was just working with Scorpio.
He's fantastic.
So great.
Edmund: I'm sorry I missed
the show.
Guy: You know, you want a cup
of tea?
I'll get a mug.
Edmund: Tea, huh?
Ok, thanks.
[Scorpio neighs]
Edmund: Well, you two seem
to be hitting it off.
Alex: Yeah.
Edmund: I thought you had
some doubts about the guy.
Alex: He's a bit unusual,
but he knows a lot about horses,
so I think we'll be fine.
Edmund: All right.
Listen, Dr. Wheat is on his way
over.
We wants to look at Scorpio's
lineage and documentation.
Alex: I know.
Do you still have those papers
I gave you?
Guy: Well, I copied them
and put them into the computer.
Alex: Guy's very efficient.
Guy: Oh, here are
the originals.
Edmund: Oh, yeah, thanks.
Guy: Now the real show
was Alex.
You should've seen her
in the chute.
Cool as a cucumber.
Alex: Oh --
Guy: Absolutely fearless.
Alex: Come on!
Guy: No, it took a lot
of courage to do what you did.
Alex: No, I'll need a lot
more before we're done.
Guy: You're going to be fine.
Alex: Thank you.
Wait, I think, actually,
I'm going to groom Scorpio
before the vet gets here.
Do you think Sam and Maddie
would like to see that?
I mean, I want them to get used
to the new horse.
Should I get them?
Edmund: That's a great idea.
I'll get them.
Alex: Ok.
[Guy whistles "Waltzing
Matilda"]
Alex: What's that song?
Arlene: Look,
I've made mistakes.
I know it.
But I didn't kill him.
I am not a murderer.
Hayley: No, you're a liar,
because you said you were here
for me and for Janet.
And that's a crock.
You're not here for us.
You don't even care about
your own brother!
Arlene: Oh, sweetie,
the timing was a coincidence.
I -- I came here
for Janet and Amanda.
But especially for you.
Hayley: Well, great.
Now I want you to leave
especially for me.
Today.
Mateo, will you take me to WRCW,
please?
Mateo: Yep.
How long will you be?
Hayley: Long enough
for Arlene to pack and get out.
Arlene: I guess that means
not to Jamaica, right?
Mateo: Jamaica?
Hayley: Eli called.
He wants me to do a remote
in Jamaica for sweeps week.
I got to go over there and tell
him to postpone the whole thing.
Janet: Oh, why?
Why put it off?
Hayley: Because I got a lot
going on, you know,
with the custody hearing
and everything and --
Janet: Hayley, I think it
would really do you good to go.
Hayley: Truthfully,
I, you know, I kind of feel
funny leaving you and Amanda
here by yourselves.
Janet: Amanda and I will be
fine.
Arlene: I -- I could stay.
I'm sure you would like some
family comfort, and I got a scad
of yo-yo tricks I could teach
Amanda.
Hayley: Listen to me.
I don't need you here, and Janet
doesn't need you here,
and certainly Amanda does not
need you here.
Janet: Hayley's right.
I don't need anyone to look
after me.
Hayley: Be gone by the time
I get home, Arlene.
Arlene: But --
Mateo: Pack your bags,
please.
I'm going to drop Hayley off
and then I'm going to come
by and pick you up and take
you to the bus station, ok?
Arlene: I'm -- I'm kind
of low on --
Mateo: Low on cash?
I'll pay for the ticket.
Buses, planes, trains --
anywhere you want to go.
You ready?
Hayley: Mm-hmm.
Janet: Bye.
Gillian: Jake.
What you did in court today was
so loving.
Can I talk to you?
Jake: No.
I got to get out of here.
Gillian: Oh, what have
we done?
Ruth: Sweetie, listen,
your intentions came
from the heart.
And in time he'll come
to understand that.
Gillian: I don't think so.
Dixie: Honey, when he works
this through, he'll come back
to you.
Gillian: Oh.
How can such a good man lose
to someone so evil?
Joe: Jake may have lost
his chance at custody.
He showed us strength and love
that Chandler can't begin
to understand.
Gillian: He's sitting
in there gloating, and I just
want to slap him.
Tad: I'll hold him down
for you.
Dixie: Come on, you guys,
there's been enough fighting
for today.
Now, what about you?
Can I drive you home?
Gillian: No, thanks.
There's something I need to do
first.
Liza: You know he loves
you very much.
Adam: She's right.
I do.
Liza: I was talking about
Jake, Adam.
Adam: Oh, really?
Hmm.
I remember once you told me
you wished Colby were mine.
Liza: Oh, well, isn't that
the perfect example of being
careful what you wish for?
Adam: It's been a long,
hard road, Liza.
But now we both have our hearts'
desire.
Liza: How can you say that?
Adam: I'm with the two people
that are most precious to me
in my life.
My wife and our child.
Liza: Well, you don't have
me, and you most certainly don't
have my daughter.
Adam: Liza --
Alex: No, I know the song,
but I haven't heard it in a long
time.
Guy: Well, Australian.
Edmund: It's "Waltzing
Matilda."
Guy: Right.
Right, if the high notes bother
you, I could --
Alex: No.
No, not at all.
Um --
thanks for today.
It was good.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Guy: Yes. Yes.
Janet: Are you ok?
Arlene: Yeah, I just need
a moment.
Janet, no one understands me.
Janet: You want to talk
about it?
Arlene: No, no, I don't want
to burden you.
It's hard admit, but
I was in love with Ron.
Janet: But you just said that
he was forcing himself on you --
Arlene: Yeah, no, I know,
I know.
I, um, you know, he was coarse
and wasn't much of a looker,
but I --
I was in love with him.
And he told me that he loved me,
that I was
delicate and feminine and --
he swore he would marry me.
He just forgot to tell me that
he had a wife.
And by the time I found out,
I was --
desperately in love with him.
I mean, you know how that is,
right?
Right?
I just --
I just had to be around him.
I'd do anything -- anything
to be around him.
You know, you and I are a lot
alike.
Janet: Are we?
Arlene: Mm-hmm.
Yeah, we're both in love
with men that fate has taken
away from us.
You're the only one that
understands me.
I feel so lucky to have
you as a friend, a sister.
Janet: Well, we don't really
know each other that well.
I --
Arlene: You know Trev.
Trev was right when he fell
for you.
He was.
You are a kind woman.
Do you think it's possible --
never mind.
Janet: What?
Arlene: You know, I have
no place to stay.
I have no friends.
No money.
I'm all alone in the world.
I feel like I've been wronged.
That must be how Trev feels.
Wherever he is.
Do you think you could find it
in your heart to let me stay?
Tad: Liza, you got a minute?
Liza: Now's not the
time, Tad.
Tad: Now is the only time.
You've got to do it.
You got to go to the DA's
office and press charges.
Dixie: You know, you're not
alone.
We'll help you.
Tad: You can't let him get
away with this.
Liza: Right now I just want
some peace.
Ruth: What do you think?
What do you think she'll do?
Tad: She'll do what she has
to do.
Jake set the example, didn't he?
He did the right thing even
though it tore his heart out.
Joe: Let's hope Liza has
the same strength.
Tad: She does.
She may be too much like Adam
for her own good, but she's got
a heart and a conscience.
Dixie: Yeah, she's just got
to press charges.
Tad: I'm going to make sure
of it.
Barry: You know, if Liza
presses charges, you could be
facing a big problem.
Adam: It's not going
to happen.
It might amaze you to know that
Liza still loves me.
Barry: I hope so,
for your sake.
Adam: Look at the facts.
She was going to leave me.
She didn't.
She wanted a divorce.
That didn't happen.
And then she was going to kick
me out.
I'm still there.
She loves me.
Almost as much as I love her.
Barry: Well, love can be
fickle.
And the Martins are pressing
her pretty hard.
What they think is very
important to her.
Adam: Yeah, well,
I have every confidence in Liza.
But if they should sway her
into filing charges,
we'll just have to play
our trump card, won't we?
[Baby music plays]
Gillian: Look, Colby.
Daddy's home.
Look.
Gillian: Jake?
On the next
"All My Children" --
David: You let Adam steal
a file from my office.
How could you do that?
Greenlee: Things looked a bit
frigid between you and
the virgin princess.
Arlene: You killed Sophie.
Don't worry.
I can keep a secret.
Jake: If I hadn't have gone
after custody of Colby,
would you have married me?
