Leo: Greenlee? Greenlee, it's me. Come on.
Leo: Greenlee, if -- if you're in there, if you can hear me, I love you. Come on, baby.
Leo: Just let me see you, please. Let me look at you when I tell you I love you so you can know.
Leo: Greenlee? If you need to hurt me, I understand. But don't close the door on us, please. Don't walk away from what we found together. Come on! Come on! I never believed in love before, Greenlee. Come on. I never believed in me.
Leo: Come on! We have to talk! You have to hear me!

Greenlee: Isn't that appropriate? To you, Leo -- from one dud to another.

Erica: Oh. Brooke, any sign of David?
Brooke: No, not yet.
Erica: Is Judge Stanton still in his office?
Brooke: Yes. I actually almost went and talked to him without you.
Erica: Why would you do that? I'm not late, Brooke.
Brooke: I know. I know. I just -- I just thought it might be better if -- it might be better if it came from me.
Erica: Well, that would defeat the whole purpose, Brooke. I know this man. I know what he needs to hear before I bring you in there. And that's when we get what we need for your daughter. Listen, if David arrives while I'm still in the office with Judge Stanton, I want you to tell David that he has to be humble, ok? Please, tell him that I said he has to be humble, all right?
Brooke: What are you going to say to the judge?
Erica: Well, I'm going to tell him the truth. And I'm going to appeal to his human side.
Brooke: Don't bribe him, ok? We can't risk that.
Erica: Brooke, I'm not going to bribe a judge.
Brooke: Well, don't vamp him, either.
Erica: You know, Brooke, to quote an expression of my daughter's -- "That is so not who I am."
Brooke: Look, Erica, I just need the judge to let David be Laura's doctor, that's all.
Erica: And that's all I'm here to do, Brooke. All right? Now, I'm going in.

Erica: Hello, Paul.
Paul: Erica?
Erica: Yes. I hope I'm not catching you at a bad time.
Paul: Actually, I'm quite busy. I'm about to hear a case and --
Erica: David Hayward's case?
Paul: Yes, actually.
Erica: That's why I'm here, Paul. May we speak honestly?

Tad: I'm so sorry I'm late. I swear --
Dixie: No. No, no, no. Don't worry about it, ok? Thanks for coming.
Tad: You worked today.
Dixie: Shut up. Yes. I subbed for the 10th-grade history teacher.
Tad: How was it?
Dixie: Well, do you remember what you were like when you had a sub instead of your usual teacher?
Tad: How bad were they?
Dixie: A little more than the usual bad. I was a little more wigged out than usual because J.R. was not even being in the building.
Tad: Yeah, I understand. So were the kids talking about him, what happened at the police station?
Dixie: Yeah. Every time I turned my back around.
Tad: So he's some kind of hero, right?
Thank you.
Dixie: He --
Tad: I know. But I got to tell you, I can't say I'm surprised.
Dixie: I just kept thinking about him spending the whole day with Adam, you know?
Tad: Learning how to negotiate some hostile takeover.
Dixie: And worse but that's not why I invited you here. I'm sorry. That's not what I wanted to talk about.
Tad: Ok. Is something the matter?
Dixie: No. No, no. I hope not. I was wondering if you'd like to move back home.
Tad: Are you sure about this?
Dixie: Yeah. I mean, I just keeping thinking of the look on Junior's face when we tell him. He's going to be so happy. It's going to make all the difference. What? Wait, what's wrong?
Tad: Why do you want me to come home?
Dixie: Well, I told you. Because I -- because I love you. Because I -- I miss you.
Tad: And? Maybe because Adam's making noises about suing you for custody for J.R.?
Dixie: Oh, come on, be fair.
Tad: Dixie, tell the truth. Would you really want me to come home with you tonight if you knew J.R. were already there?
Dixie: I am telling you the truth. I miss our family. Is that so wrong?
Tad: No, of course not.
Dixie: You're just not ready, are you?
Tad: I don't want to do it just because it feels comfortable. If I come back to you, it's -- it's got to be because we want each other.
Dixie: You don't think we can get back to that?
Tad: I hope we can. I just -- I don't think we're there yet. I -- I don't want to get back together for anybody's sake other than our own. Because it's certainly not going to help Junior if we get back together, you know, because of him or because of what we used to have. Dixie, I'm sorry, we got to do it for each other. I think deep down you know that as well as I do.
Dixie: Yeah, it could backfire.
Tad: And for everybody.
Dixie: I don't want that.
Tad: I know. Don't get me wrong, because I am sorely tempted. I would love nothing more than jump up and grab you by the hand and fly out of here. But I just don't think now is the right time.
Dixie: Do you think there will be a right time?
Tad: Yeah, I do. I think -- I think we got another shot in us. But I just want to make sure I do everything right, you know? Make sure you do everything right, too. Because one thing's for sure -- I -- I don't think I can go through breaking up with you one more time. I don't -- I don't think I have that in me.

[Telephone rings]

Tad: You going to get that?
Dixie: Yeah. Sorry.

Dixie: Hello. Oh. Liza, hi. What? No, no, no, no. No. I'll be right there. Thank you so much for calling. Oh, no. Ok, thanks. Lousy son of a --

Tad: Adam?
Dixie: Yes. He's taking J.R. before the judge and the whole hearing process without me.
Tad: When?
Dixie: Right now!
Tad: Come on, we got to get there.

Adam: Good. we have got some time.
J.R.: Yeah. We're like a year early, Dad.
Adam: Better half an hour early than five minutes late. You don't want to keep a judge waiting.
J.R.: Where's your driver?
Adam: He has the night off.
J.R.: Hey, can I go get a soda at that deli?
Adam: Yeah. Yeah, sure. Go. Just make sure you're back in 10 minutes. Ok? Don't want to be late.

Adam: You are going to get this judge to listen to reason, aren't you, Barry?
Barry: Well, Stanton's pretty decent. I doubt this'll be much of anything. J.R.'S a good kid. It's his first offense. I think he'll be fair.
Adam: Why can't we get him for the custody hearing?
Barry: Oh, no, Stanton's not a family court judge, Adam.
Adam: All I want to know is -- we'll have a judge who's fair when n granting me full custody.
Barry: You know, that's going to be something of a hard sell, Adam. Well, it is. I'm just warning you what to expect from a petition like that at this stage of the game.
Adam: What stage of what game?
Barry: Well, J.R. Is already in his teens. He's always lived with his mother. And frankly, the first time he got into any kind of trouble was after he started living with you. Now, don't hit me, all right? I'm just letting you know that overturning a long-term custody decision is very difficult.
Adam: If J.R. testifies to a family court judge that he wants to live with me and not his mother, will he be heard?
Barry: Well, they'll always listen, yeah. Because J.R. is a teenager his opinion will count. But -- we have to go at this lightly. None of the Adam Chandler sledgehammer politics belong in that kind of a discussion when we have it, ok?
Adam: I don't know what you're talking about.
Barry: I'm talking about the way you bully people into your way of thinking. Now, if you try those tactics to gain custody of your son, you're in trouble.
Adam: All right. All right. All right.
Barry: Why don't we just concentrate on getting these charges against J.R. dropped, huh?
Adam: All right.
Barry: One other thing -- I know that J.R. announced that he wants to live with you and not his mother.
Adam: Your point?
Barry: Well, he made that statement in the heat of the moment in the middle of a police station booking. Now, when he gets in front of a court, in front of a judge, he may not be able to side against Dixie.
Adam: You let me worry about that, all right, Barry?

Erica: Yes, of course, it would be unorthodox to let David Hayward out of jail to care for a patient. But this is truly a unique situation, Paul.
Paul: I'll tell you what I'm finding unique about it, Erica. I was expecting to meet Brooke English, David Hayward, and his attorney. I have no idea why you're here, pleading this case, such as it is, to me.
Erica: Well, you and I have a personal relationship.
Paul: We have a passing relationship from charity events in our social circle, Erica. Wait -- you used to be involved with David Hayward.
Erica: I know David. Yes, I do. And that's also why I'm here. But, Paul, this is nothing personal. I'm here to tell you about David Hayward's abilities as a cardiologist and about his unique ability to be able to save Brooke English's daughter.
Paul: Are you telling me he's the only doctor in the area who's able to perform whatever procedure it is that this girl needs?
Erica: Paul, he's the only doctor who would even try. And believe me, Laura English has no other options. She's in very grave condition. And David is willing.
Paul: Perhaps he's so willing because it helps keep him out of jail longer.
Erica: Would that really matter? Would that really matter if Laura English gets to live? Paul, I was in a terrible car accident a couple of years ago. My face was completely damaged. My heart was badly damaged. And Dr. Hayward saved my life. I know what kind of a doctor he is. He has unique abilities. And Laura English needs this doctor, not some idealized man with perfect motives.
Paul: Erica, I can't base any legal decision on your opinion or your theories.
Erica: Of course not, Paul. But we're both parents. And can't you put yourself in Brooke English's shoes? I met your beautiful daughter, Liana, at a fashion show, a charity event, just a short while ago.
Paul: She's very interested in that world.
Erica: Really? Not law like her daddy?
Paul: Hardly.
Erica: I see. Well, I'd be very, very happy to talk to her, give her some career advice if she likes. Perhaps give her a tour of Enchantment Cosmetics --
Paul: Erica, I think that's enough.
Erica: I beg your pardon?
Paul: I have a case before me. Your views, one way or the other, will not influence my decision.

Leo: Greenlee?
Jake: What the hell are you doing, Leo? Hey
Leo: Jake, man, I have to see her. Where is she?
Jake: You get the hell out of my apartment.
Leo: Where is she?
Jake: I haven't seen her.
Leo: Look, Jake, I know that you guys talk about stuff and how you've been getting closer. So do you really think that I'm going to believe when you say you haven't talked to her once since last night?
Jake: I wish I had. I wish I had because I'm worried about her, Leo. And you're to blame for that.
Leo: Look --
Jake: No, no, no, you look. I have no idea where Greenlee is. And I'm worried about her, and she's out there somewhere. And let me tell you something -- when I do find her, I'm going to make it very clear to her that no matter what her baggage is, and no matter how easily she can drive me crazy, she deserves a hell of a lot better than you, Leo. Now, get out! I mean it, Leo.
Jake: You stay the hell away from Greenlee.
Jake: Just don't let him get to you, Greenlee, wherever you are.

Leo's voice: Baby, how's this for a plan? First thing tomorrow morning, we drive to Elk Green and we get married, right after we sign the prenup. What do you say? How would you like to be my runaway bride?

Paul: Mr. O'Neal, may I see your client in my chambers alone?
Mr. O'Neal: Your honor --
David: That would be fine, your honor.

Brooke: Erica, what happened?
Erica: Well, I told the judge what he needed to know.
Brooke: And?
Erica: I'm not sure. I'm not sure of anything.

Tad: Brooke. Erica, what are you doing here?
Dixie: Have you seen J.R.?
Erica: You don't know where your son is?
Brooke: This isn't about Jamie, right?
Tad: No. Why would it be? He's at Opal's, right?
Dixie: Is he in there? The judge, I mean?
Brooke: Yes. David's in there with him.
Tad: David Hayward?
Brooke: Yes.

Paul: I've read your petition for a temporary pass out of jail to perform a rather complex procedure on Laura English, Dr. Hayward. It's an extraordinarily unusual request, you know.
David: Yes, I'm very well aware of that, your honor. But just to set the record straight, I'm not the one that made the request. Laura's mother, Brooke English, did.
Paul: And somehow this woman has been convinced that no other cardiologist around will perform this procedure?
David: Well, a lot of doctors could do it, but very few of them would take the chance.
Paul: And why would you? Nothing to lose?
David: Because I know that if I perform the procedure, Laura will live through it. And if that test gives us the answer that I'm afraid it will, then Laura could be put on the fast track for art donors that much sooner. Without the test, she would just lie in bed, getting weaker and weaker.
Paul: Laura English needs a heart transplant?
David: I think she does, your honor. But unfortunately, needing a new heart and actually getting one are two very different things.

Dixie: Brooke, I'm so sorry.
Tad: In spite of my feelings for David, I got to admit, he is an excellent doctor. If Dixie were ever to get sick again, I'd still want him to treat her.
Erica: That's it.
Dixie: What's it?
Erica: That's it, that's what you have to do. You have to go in and tell the judge. You have to testify on David's behalf. You have to tell the judge what a wonderful doctor he is. Tell him that he saved your life. I told him that he saved my life. And the more, the better.
Dixie: I don't know if that's such a good idea, Erica.
Erica: Yes, it is.
Brooke: Dixie, I know this is loaded for you and Tad, but if it would help me get David to Laura, would you do it?
Dixie: Of course.

Erica: Now, ladies. Erica: Excuse me, Paul, this couldn't wait. Dixie Martin is also a patient of Dr. David Hayward, and she wants to testify on his behalf.
Paul: This isn't sworn testimony, Erica. And I'm not pleased that you've walked into my chambers twice in one hour, interrupting with --
Erica: Paul, please. We're here now. Please, just hear her out. Ask her. Dixie.
Dixie: I have a serious heart condition, your honor. It's flared up more than once. I've had more than one close call. And each time I have survived those because of the skill and knowledge of David Hayward. I'm here today because of him.

Barry: Let me check with the judge, see how long he'll be.
J.R.: Is my mom here?
Erica: Yes. She's in there right now. She's trying to get David Hayward freed.
Tad: Wait, J.R. Listen, you don't understand.
J.R.: What the hell is she doing, Tad?
Tad: You don't un--

Dixie: I'd trust my life to David Hayward.
J.R.: No!
Dixie: J.R., Wait a second. This isn't what you think.
J.R.: You keep on defending him, Mom, like he's some kind of superhero. He ruined our lives.
Tad: Could you step outside with me? I'll tell you --
J.R.: Tad, he should be in jail!
Paul: Young man --
J.R.: No, this is freaking unbelievable! He gets away with everything!

Adam: J.R., Why don't you come outside --
J.R.: After all of this, all he's done, my mom still manages to stick up for him. Just don't see it, do you, Mom?
Dixie: Wait a second. Wait, wait.
Adam: Dixie! Dixie! I'll handle this.
Dixie: You have to let me explain to him that this is not what he thinks!
Adam: Don't you think you've done enough damage?

Tad: Just give J.R. some time to calm down.
Dixie: I can't believe this. I can't believe this is happening.
Tad: He had no idea you were defending David for Laura's sake. As soon as he finds out, he'll understand.
Dixie: What about now? What about what he thinks about me now?

Adam: I don't blame you for being upset, son.
J.R.: What was David Hayward doing inhere? He's supposed to be in jail, Dad. He gets away with everything. And how come my mom always sticks up for him?
Adam: I don't know. I don't know. I don't understand your mother's behavior at all. And if -- if Hayward gets off or they drop the charges, he's going to be around your mother's house again. And I know how difficult that is for you.
J.R.: I hate it. I hate the whole thing.
Adam: It's not fair to you, Son. I don't think I could stand it if I were in your shoes. I know that's small comfort.
J.R.: I can't stay there, Dad. I want to live with you and Liza at your house. I have to.
Adam: Ok.

Vanessa: Leo, you look positively dreadful.
Leo: Scotch straight up, please.
Vanessa: Darling, have you slept at all since last night? Or bathed? I can see you're in such pain to let yourself go like this. Listen, I'm so sorry. Leo, my poor baby. Please --
Leo: I didn't come here for your sympathy, mother, even if it's real.
Vanessa: Oh. Of course it's real. I can't stand to see you in pain. I can see you're absolutely devastated.
Leo: Look, I know that you can't even take this in, but if I really lost Greenlee, I have -- I've lost everything. Everything that matters to me.
Vanessa: All right, Darling, I know you can't really hear this right now, either, but this, too, shall pass.
Leo: Shall it?
Vanessa: Yes. You've very resilient, Darling. You always have been, even as a little boy.
Leo: So what are you saying, I'm going to bounce back from this? Is that it?
Vanessa: Yes, you will. You always do.
Leo: Yeah, bounce back from what? Hmm? Lying? Cheating? Stealing? Breaking people's hearts just to screw them over? No, no. I have so much to look forward to, don't I, Mother? After all, you did teach me everything that I know, didn't you?

Jake: If anyone matching that description is brought into the ER make sure you page me right away. Thank you. Where the hell are you, Greenlee?

Jake: Oh, man. Damn satellite garbage.

Greenlee: Why me? Can I ask you that? Am I such a creepy human being that everything has to happen to me? I mean, I'm not so awful, am I? Have I been that bad? I mean, look at where I came fro can't I get a break? So what if I'm rich and beautiful? What the hell good is that if I'm miserable? Whoa. That's high.

Leo: Am I embarrassing you, Mother?
Vanessa: Well, if that were the least of it. I'm going to have to do damage control with Palmer for the rest of my life because he bore witness to your past with Katerina. You know, that girl was a problem ever since the beginning. Even -- in spite of the benefits of pay.
Leo: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Back up. My past, like you had nothing to do with it?
Vanessa: Don't turn it all around on me, Leo. I've been very tenacious and careful about covering my tracks. You, however, got very sloppy and you left a trail that people have followed.
Leo: You are unreal.
Vanessa: No, I'm realistic. If only you'd married Greenlee when you had the chance.
Leo: You spent 30 seconds telling me how sorry you are for my pain. Then you get to the real point, which is that your gravy train is about to be derailed.
Vanessa: Palmer is going to be watching me like a hawk, Darling.
Leo: Tell me this, Mother --
Vanessa: No, don't you care? It's to your benefit, too.
Leo: No, tell me, was I like Attila the Hun in my past life? And that's why I get you for a mother in this one?
Vanessa: Ok, go ahead and be cruel, but I know how you really feel.
Leo: Well, of course you do. You trained me. I'm like your pet seal. I think that palmer's going to dump you.
Vanessa: Oh, good heavens.
Leo: No, no, I do. So I think that it's time for something like we did in Prague, what do you think?
Vanessa: Prague? What -- what's come over you?
Leo: Well, if Palmer hasn't put you in his will yet, it's probably not going to happen, Mother. So, I bet that David still has access to his prescription pad. What do you think? Slip a little controlled substance into Palmer's bedtime brandy? Something untraceable? Something that old Palmer's heart couldn't quite take? What do you think?
Vanessa: You want me to kill the man? My God, have you lost your mind?
Leo: Well, if he's dead, you can contest the will. You got an excellent shot.
Vanessa: He's my husband. I can't kill him -- you crazy?
Leo: I've hit rock bottom, Mother. Say hello to your baby boy. He's arrived.

Jake: Hey there, Spiderwoman. What are you doing over there?
Greenlee: Jake! Hi.
Jake: Hi. You ok?
Greenlee: How'd you know I was up here?
Jake: Actually, I didn't. I -- the reception on the TV went out again, and I just came up here to play with the digital connection.
Greenlee: Oh. Cool. This was the skankiest bottle of champagne in history. Didn't stop me from downing it, though.
Jake: Yeah. Or pouring it all down the front of yourself, I see. So, listen, Green, why don't you just -- just pull your legs back over this way on this side of the wall for me, all right? Because you're making me really nervous right now, all right?
Greenlee: I was up here with Leo yesterday.
Jake: Yeah?
Greenlee: You know. B.K.
Jake: "B.K."?
Greenlee: Before Katerina.
Jake: B.K.
Greenlee: Too bad I didn't know then. I could've saved us a whole lot of trouble and pushed him over.
Jake: Listen, why don't you just come over here with me, all right? I want you to talk with me over here, please.
Greenlee: I am so not going to jump, ok? I mean, really. Over Leo? That would be like jumping over my father.
Jake: It would.
Greenlee: Bug number one and bug number two. I do not want that garbage on my tombstone. Hey! No, sirree. You can say the "I told you so's" now.
Jake: I don't want to do that to you.
Greenlee: Oh, come on. You warned me about Leo.
Jake: Yeah?
Greenlee: Well, you were right.
Jake: What, you think I'm happy about that?
Greenlee: I don't know.
Jake: Green?
Greenlee: Can I tell you something?
Jake: Sure.
Greenlee: I ordered monogrammed towels. G.S.D. -- Greenlee Smythe Du Pres. Is that the stupidest thing you've ever heard?
Jake: No.
Greenlee: What am I going to do with them now?
Jake: Well, we're going to figure out something, ok? Green, just take my hand. Green --
Greenlee: This could be very dramatic, you know. Like an airborne Anna Karenina.
Jake: What do you know about Anna Karenina?
Greenlee: She threw herself in front of a train. She was heartbroken. I did go to college, you know. There where some core courses I had to take.
Jake: Greenlee, I want you to take my hand. Here.
Greenlee: Do you think Leo would come to my funeral?
Jake: Green -- I got you. I got you.
Greenlee: I am so out of it.
Jake: No, no, no. You're ok.
Greenlee: I didn't mean that.
Jake: Can you walk? No? Ok. Ok. You're ok. I got you.

Paul: There have been a lot of opinions expressed in this room today. The only one that counts is mine. And I cannot see letting Dr. Hayward out on some unprecedented leave so he can perform surgery.
Brooke: No. Paul: There's
an entire community of people in Pine Valley who are relieved that this man is behind bars. They are hoping for a conviction that will keep him there for many years to come.
Erica: But this is not the court of public opinion, Judge. You said yourself, Paul, that you are not easily swayed by --
Paul: Erica, you are fortunate to be in my chambers at all to hear my decision. You have no place in this discussion. And I want to put an end to it for good. That's all there is to say.
Brooke: No, it's not.
Paul: Ms. English, I know you're very worried about your daughter. And I wish you the very best of luck in getting her the care she needs.
Brooke: Her care is in your hands. Your honor, I -- I know you have a job to do. I know that you have to uphold rules and take care of protocol. I don't -- I don't give a damn about any of that. I just care about my daughter. I just care about keeping my children safe. It's what you do when you decide to raise children. And if you do it right, it's -- you've -- you've delivered on an unspoken promise to -- to a higher power or whatever it is you believe in. And I cannot leave here tonight if I don't do the right thing for my daughter. And I think that she has a chance to live if Dr. Hayward looks after her. I lost my -- my first child to a drunk driver. She didn't have a chance to live. The doctors couldn't give her a chance, and I couldn't give it to her, either. But I can give Laura a chance. And I have to do that as her mother. I have to protect her no matter what it costs.

Vanessa: All right, Leo, you stop this nonsense right now. I don't know what you're trying to prove.
Leo: Prove? Nothing. I'm not trying to prove anything. I lost my shot at happiness. But you, mother -- if Palmer kicks the bucket, you got an excellent shot at that brass ring.
Vanessa: All right, Leo, you've always had quite a flair for the dramatic when you don't get your way. You didn't get your way with Greenlee. But you're wasting your breath. Do you think she's sitting around pining for you?
Leo: I don't know where Greenlee is.
Vanessa: Well, she's certainly not, my dear. We know what that kind is -- does. We have fleeced that kind before. And we know what that kind does to console themselves when they have been wounded. So please --
Leo: Don't you ever insult Greenlee again, you hear me? I swear to God, you go too far sometimes.
Vanessa: Le-- did you really convince yourself that you were going to stay married to Greenlee Smythe, even if you had made it to the altar? I mean, who do you think you're talking to?
Leo: Who do you think I am? Huh? Who?
Vanessa: Well, you'll see that I'm right. You will.

Jake: Ok. Just set you down right here, ok? Right on the sofa. Just relax, ok?
Greenlee: What am I going to do, Jake?
Jake: Ok, first things first -- I need you to take your clothes off.

Paul: I will allow Dr. Hayward to perform the procedure on your daughter. Your client is to be under 24-hour-a-day watch. As soon as the procedure and the necessary follow-up occurs, he's to be returned to jail to await trial. Are we clear?
David: Perfectly clear, your honor. I'll abide by all your rules.
Brooke: Thank you.
Brooke: David, how soon can you perform the surgery?
David: Immediately. This is coming right off. As long as Laura's prepared.
Brooke: Can you call the hospital and tell them to start prepping her?
David: No, no. That's not what I meant, Brooke. Have you told Laura yet what's really going on with her heart?

Adam: Do you have any idea what your little paean to David Hayward cost my son?
Tad: Why don't you back off. You don't know what was going on in there.
Adam: And, you, you put up with it. Are you that desperate to keep her?
Dixie: Adam, shut up. You know, your wife called and told me that you were bringing our son to this hearing without me. Who do you think you are? Even your wife knows you're out of line.

Paul: Adam Chandler Jr.? Are you all ready?
Dixie: Yes, sir. So where's J.R.?

[Music plays]

Dixie's voice: I trust David Hayward with my life. With my life.
Adam's voice: He's going to be around your mother's house again. Your mother's house again.


ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN

Greenlee: You wouldn't know what a woman needed if your boring life depended on it.

Brooke: I want to talk to you while we are alone.

Adam: Junior seems to have disappeared.

Ken: Try two of these, they'll have you twisted
Hayley: What's going on?
