Joe: Pressure is higher than
I'd like.
Temperature's up.
Ryan: Is that doctor-speak
for "I overdid it"?
Joe: It is.
Ryan: I can't be so close
to Gillian and not go see her,
Doc.
Joe: Well, I understand.
But if I were to tell
you her prognosis gets better
by the hour, would you then hold
still?
Ryan: Maybe.
Joe: Ryan, you can't take
your injuries lightly.
If you do, you're still going
to be here when Gillian goes
home.
Now, try and get some sleep.
Ryan: Ok.
Any medical objections to me
watching a horror flick?
Joe: Well, that'd keep most
people up, but be my guest.
Good night.
Ryan: Good night, Doc.
[Turns TV on]
Joe: Are you up for
a visitor?
There's someone out here who
would very much like to see you.
[Turns TV off]
Ryan: Well, it sure beats
watching another rerun
of "The Wasp Woman."
Greenlee: I won't sting,
I promise.
You were expecting the other
cute blonde in your life,
weren't you?
Hayley: Oh, yes.
Lord Smokey, I pre--
oh, fine.
You don't like it?
Fine.
I'll save it for myself.
No accounting for taste.
Janet: Here's my stash.
Hayley: Oh, great.
I can't wait to rifle through
it.
Oh, these are great.
Oh, my gosh.
They're so much better than what
I had planned.
Oh, and these -- you guys,
tons and tons of beaded
bracelets.
You cannot have too many.
And estate jewelry or new
jewelry that looks old or old
jewelry that's really funky --
it's all fabulous.
Amanda: And look at Smokey.
Janet: Well, that ought
to get him some dates.
You ready to go through my stuff
and tell me what works?
Hayley: Yes, please.
Please.
Amanda: Ooh, show her that
pretty pendant that you never
wear.
Hayley: Oh, is it turquoise?
Janet: It's just costume.
Amanda: But it's retro
and totally in.
Come on.
Hayley: Come on.
Janet: Ok, ok.
Hayley: Pick out one of these
for you.
This one's great, too.
Janet: Like I said, it's just
costume.
Hayley: Oh, my gosh.
It's wonderful.
Is this hand-made?
There can't be too many of these
around.
Amanda: Put it on, Mom.
Janet: Uh --
Hayley: It's really fabulous.
Here.
Where'd you get it?
Janet: Oh, it's been so long,
I forget.
Hayley: Uh-huh.
An old flame, huh?
[Doorbell rings]
Janet: I'll get it.
Trevor: Hi, honey, I forgot
my keys.
Janet: Hey.
Trevor: Sorry.
Amanda: Daddy.
Trevor: Hey.
Smokey's part of this bauble
fest.
Nice, beautiful.
Where'd you get this, honey?
Janet: Oh look --
Amanda: Hayley's helping us
accessorize.
Janet: See?
Look what I've got on.
Trevor: They match.
Janet: Right.
Amanda, let's put that away.
We've got things to do.
Ok.
Trevor: Tink, you got
a minute?
Hayley: It's not about
accessorizing, is it?
Trevor: No.
I talked to the EMT's That
took Ryan and Gillian
to the hospital.
You got to hear this.
Adrian: Nothing like a little
espionage to work up
the appetite.
Dixie: You said it.
I'm starving.
Tad: I'm not surprised.
You were the star of the show.
Adrian: Yeah, Dix.
I had no idea that you could
turn on the waterworks like
that.
Waitress: You ordering today?
Tad: Uh -- yeah.
How about three cheeseburgers and the works with onion rings,
please.
Waitress: Rings are extra.
Tad: That's no problem.
I'm treating, anyway.
Dixie: Honey, you're
unemployed.
I mean, we had to panhandle
to fill the parking meter.
Waitress: Better not bolt.
Tad: Oh, she's just kidding.
Actually, we're too old to run.
Adrian: That's why we never
leave home without this.
Waitress: Better be good.
I always get the jokers.
Tad: I think she loves
her job.
Look, all kidding aside,
thank you -- both of you.
I'd say that we can officially
consider Adam busted.
Adrian: The FCC. License is
all we need to prove that he has
total control of the station,
WRCW, and that he brokered
the deal behind Liza's back.
Tad: And if she's smart,
she'll leave him.
Dixie: Well, all this
gloating is all very well
and good, but I think we should
put this away before we get
ketchup all over it.
Tad: Oh, not a chance,
sweetheart.
I got plans for this little
baby.
[Adam watches the goings-on in his front room]
Jake: So, what's going on?
Adam: Go on, Liza, just --
just go on. Tell him straight out.
I'm Colby's father.
Liza: I just
want you to know how much
I appreciate you and the man
that you are, the father you've
become.
I really appreciate it that --
everything that you are
to Colby -- it's a rare gift,
and I'm grateful that you're
in her life.
Jake: Liza, what is it?
Marian: Oh.
Hello, Jake.
Did you come by to say good
night to Colby?
Jake: Actually, Liza called
me.
Liza: Yeah.
We were having a private
conversation, mother.
Would you go check on her?
Marian: Oh, I just did,
darling.
She's fast asleep.
Liza: Mother.
Marian: Oh, well, of course
I can take a hint.
Good night, Jake.
Jake: Good night, Marian.
Marian: Liza -- oh.
Liza: Mother.
Adam: Oh.
Tad: Ok, folks.
Raise your burgers for a toast.
Adrian: All righty.
Tad: Here is to roasting
the big weenie, Adam Chandler.
Adrian and Dixie: Hear, hear.
Tad: Cheers.
Adrian: Now what?
Tad: Good.
I'm still thinking.
You got any ideas?
Dixie: Well, I don't know.
Where -- where does Liza stand
right now?
Is she with us?
Tad: She's got to be.
I mean, after all, WRCW is
her baby.
Adam can't tamper with that
and not expect some kind
of payback.
Dixie: Mm-hmm.
Ok.
So here's what we do.
We show her the FCC. License
with Adam's name on it.
She's his wife, right?
Tad: Mm-hmm.
Dixie: She can just coerce
him into giving her the station
back, and then she turns over
"The Butting Edge" to you.
You know?
It's easy.
Tad: It's a nice idea,
sweetie, but I'm not sure that
I want easy.
I mean, this isn't just about,
you know, losing my job
or the show or even, you know,
Liza losing the station.
It's about Adam steam rolling
people and constantly getting
away with it.
You know, in the old days,
they had the right idea.
They would hang some kind
of plaque around his neck,
throw tomatoes, and spit on him.
Dixie: Thank you.
Tad, jeez.
Tad: You're right.
No spitting.
So, anyone else?
Adrian: We have irrefutable
evidence that Adam has taken
total control of the station,
all very legally.
You know, lying to his wife
and destroying a man's
livelihood -- very hateful,
but I don't think we can get him
arrested.
Tad: Exactly.
That's why I vote for public
humiliation.
Adrian: Hold up, bro.
Wait a minute.
If we go that route,
we'll definitely lose Liza.
Besides, she may want to string
him up a little privately.
But there's no way she's going
to go for public humiliation.
Dixie: I don't know.
Adrian: He's still
her husband.
Dixie: We don't know how Liza
feels until we talk to her.
I mean, and we have to talk
to her without Adam.
Tad: Woman's got a point.
Winifred?
Hi, this is Tad Martin.
Is Mrs. Chandler there?
She is. Good.
What about Mr. Chandler?
When's he expected?
Really?
No, no.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Well, Liza's there but Adam's
nowhere in sight, so I'd say
it's time for phase two.
Adam: Come on.
Liza, wake up.
That wasn't a real faint.
Don't let Marian stop you.
Just tell him.
Just tell Jake that I'm Colby's
father.
Tell him the truth.
Marian: Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, Jake, what happened?
Jake: I think you fainted,
Marian.
How do you feel?
You feel dizzy?
You feel any pain?
Liza: Not yet.
Marian: Uh --
oh, how silly of me.
I just remembered I haven't had
a thing to eat except for two
little hearts of palm early this
morning.
Jake: You probably have low
blood sugar.
Marian: Oh, dear.
Would you be so kind as to get
me a glass of water, please?
Jake: Yeah, yeah.
I'll -- I'll be right back.
Marian: Thank you, Jake.
Liza: A little obvious,
Mother?
Marian: Drastic measures,
darling.
Liza: Stay out of it.
Marian: Listen to me, Liza.
If you let this out,
you're going to lose control.
Now, you need a plan for Colby.
Liza: Do you understand that
Adam could be out there right
now telling everybody the truth?
It is going to be devastating
to him if he hears it
from someone on the street
or Adam.
Marian: Trust me, Liza.
Adam has told no one.
Liza: And how do you know
that?
Marian: What?
And indict himself?
Now, listen to me.
Promise you won't tell a thing
to Jake about this until
your divorce is finalized.
Please, Liza, can you do that
for me?
Adam don't.
Don't.
Liza --
Greenlee: Too bad you didn't
party with me.
A hangover sure beats this.
Ryan: So, that's why you're
here -- because you're concerned
about me?
Greenlee: Since I started
dating Scott, I feel like we've
become friends.
Ryan: Oh.
Greenlee: I hope you feel
the same way.
Ryan: So this is just a cozy
little visit between friends?
Greenlee: Of course.
Ryan: Oh.
Greenlee: But I do have
a teensy favor to ask.
Ryan: Really?
No kidding.
Lay it on me.
Greenlee: It's almost
nothing, really.
I'd like to borrow your key.
Ryan: My key?
Greenlee: Uh-huh.
Ryan: To the loft?
Greenlee: Uh-huh.
Ryan: Hmm.
Greenlee: Do you have it?
Ryan: Yeah.
I think it's around here
someplace.
They managed to salvage it
from the accident with
my wallet.
Greenlee: Well, why don't
you give it to me?
I can make a copy and surprise
Scott when he gets home.
Ryan: One person's surprise
might be another person's
ambush.
Greenlee: I doubt Scott would
find a cold beer and a warm
massage an ambush.
Ryan: Oh.
You're very good.
Greenlee: So, you'll do it?
Ryan: Not a chance.
Greenlee: But --
Ryan: You want the key
to the loft, you ask Scott,
not me.
Greenlee: Don't be such
a fuddy-duddy.
I'll make an extra key
for Hayley for helping me out.
Ryan: Ok, Greenlee,
stop it right there.
Hayley: What did
the EMT. Say to you?
Trevor: What did Mateo tell
you?
Hayley: Not much.
I told him that Ryan said about
him leaving Ryan there
at the accident, and Mateo told
me he did what he did
because he loved me.
Trevor: That's all?
Hayley: That, and then
he told me to get out,
which I took as a sign of guilt.
Trevor: Well, then something
doesn't add up because
the EMT's said that when
they got there, Ryan,
Gillian, and Mateo were there.
Hayley: What exactly did
they see?
Mateo walking away?
Trevor: No, he was standing
there, and he filled them
in on what was going on.
Hayley: And then the EMT's
Pulled Ryan out of the car.
Trevor: Ryan was already
on the ground.
Hayley: Ryan told me that
he was trapped inside the car
and that he begged Mateo
for help and then Mateo turned
his back and walked away.
Trevor: All I know is what
the EMT's said to me.
The car went kablooey.
The victims were on the ground,
out of harm's way.
Hayley: Do you think Ryan
could have dragged himself out
of the car?
Trevor: With a collapsed
lung?
No way.
Hayley: So, what are
you saying?
You think that Mateo rescued
Ryan?
Trevor: We got two choices.
Either it was that or Ryan's
fairy godmother.
What do you think?
Hayley: This doesn't make any
sense.
Why didn't Mateo say something
to me?
Trevor: I don't got a clue.
You guys are new math.
I'm just adding it up.
Hayley: Yeah, well,
it doesn't make any sense,
and I intend to find out why.
Ryan: Yeah, you've got nerve,
girl.
And it's not necessarily a bad
thing as long as you keep
the body count low.
Greenlee: Now that we're
on the same page --
Ryan: Hmm.
Greenlee: Will you talk me up
to Hayley?
Ryan: To Hayley?
Why?
Greenlee: Her style
segment -- I want to work on it.
Ryan: Well, what about
school?
Greenlee: Plenty of time
to do both.
Please, Ryan, I know style.
I have it.
Ask Scott.
My working on this segment would
be the perfect match.
Ryan: Sorry.
Can't do it.
Greenlee: Don't tell me
you don't have the pull I think
you do.
What?
What is it?
Hayley still too hung up
on her ex?
Ryan: Scott still too hung up
on Becca?
Greenlee: It was a crush.
It'll pass.
Ryan: I'll tell you what.
No key, no boost to Hayley,
but I'll give you a little
advice --
the guy you're going after is
unavailable.
Greenlee: You're the expert
since Hayley's obviously
unavailable to you.
[Hayley walks into Ryan's hospital room]
Greenlee: How about that?
We were just talking about you.
Ryan: And Greenlee was just
about to leave.
Greenlee: I'm off to see
Scott.
Poor boy is working late.
Ciao.
Hayley: Has anyone ever
smacked that girl on the end
of her nose with a rolled-up
newspaper and said no firmly?
Nice teddy.
Ryan: Thank you.
Hayley: I see pink in those
cheeks.
Would that be Green Tea's
shameless flirting, or are
you feeling better?
Ryan: No, I'm feeling better.
I'm feeling better.
Helped to see Gillian.
Hayley: Yeah?
How's she doing?
Ryan: Dr. Martin says she's
doing better.
Hayley: Oh, thank God.
Ryan: Still looks pretty
fragile, though, you know?
I would have loved to have
talked to her, but she's still
out of it.
Hayley: How about you?
You remember any more about
the accident?
Ryan: Hmm.
No.
Hayley: Ok, well, I got some
scoop there.
Uncle Porkchop talked
to the EMT's.
And according to them,
when they arrived at the scene,
Mateo was there and you were out
of the car.
Trevor: Ladies.
Janet: You want a peek
at the sea monkeys?
Trevor: When did this turn
up?
Janet: I found it this
morning.
Trevor: Oh, yeah, a little
scavenger hunt after breakfast?
Janet: No, actually someone
folded it up and put it
on the front porch.
Trevor: Must have psychic
neighbors.
There ain't no name tag in it.
Janet: No, but maybe someone
saw Amanda wearing it --
Amanda: Mom, Dad --
Trevor: What?
Amanda: Smokey's gone.
Trevor: What?
Liza: I appreciate what
you're trying to do --
Marian: Oh. Oh. Oh.
Oh, thank you so much, Jake.
Jake: There you go, Marian.
Drink all of it, all right?
Marian: Ok.
Jake: But you do have
something to tell me, don't you?
Is it about Adam and Colby?
What -- the stem cells?
Hey.
Harriet: I thought you should
know, Mrs. Chandler,
Colby's come down with a fever
again --
Liza: Oh.
Harriet: And a rash.
Adam: Damn, this is agony.
I should be with her, not you.
Jake: Trying to give us
a scare?
Liza: Does she have a fever?
Jake: A slight one.
I can feel it.
Liza: Oh.
Marian: What about the rash?
What do you think it is?
Jake: I -- I think it's
our first case of Roseola.
It's a virus.
Liza: Is it serious?
Jake: No, no.
It's not pretty, but she'll be
fine.
Just part of being a baby, huh?
You'll be all right.
Kisses will help.
Marian: Kisses?
Jake: Mm-hmm.
Marian: We'll get lipstick
on you.
Jake: That's right.
Keep an eye on her.
Marian: Liza, Jake is
a natural at something Adam
could never be.
Listen to me.
You can't let Colby lose Jake
as a father.
It wouldn't be fair to either
of them, darling.
Adam: Shut up, woman.
Stop pouring your venom
into Liza's ear.
Jake: I'll be up in a little
bit.
Ok. Watch that.
So, ladies --
Liza: You know, mother,
Colby loves it when you read
to her.
Marian: Oh, yes, of course.
Especially when the stories have
happily-ever-after endings,
right, Liza?
All right, Jake, thank
you so much.
Good night.
Jake: Not going to get any
quieter around here.
Hey, come on.
What's on your mind?
Adam: Come on.
Tell him, tell him.
Liza: Well, it was about
Colby and Adam.
Jake: Yeah?
What?
Did he admit to switching
the stem cells, Dimitri's stem
cells?
Liza: Yeah, he did.
Adam admitted -- he confessed
that he switched someone else's
stem cells with Colby's.
Adam: No, no.
No, that's not it.
No, damn it! Damn it!
Damn it!
Damn it, damn it, damn it!
Damn!
That's not it.
She's not your child, Jake.
She's mine.
Mine!
You hear me?
Liza --
I swear on my life, I'm not
going to let you get away
with this.
Jake: What Adam did was
illegal.
Illegal.
I'm pressing charges first thing
tomorrow.
Liza: Oh, come on.
Please, Jake.
I'm as angry as you are,
but for Colby's sake.
Jake: That's exactly what I'm
talking about.
For her sake.
I mean --
this is just the beginning
of him interfering in Colby's
life.
Really.
We have to do something.
What if -- what if we don't do
anything and -- God only knows
what he's going to do
in the future.
Liza: Look, if the past is
any indication, then I agree
with you.
I do.
But arresting him is not
the answer.
Jake: I want him in jail.
I want him in jail.
Liza: If you are pressing
charges, I promise you that I'm
not going to support you.
Jake: I can't --
you -- you would let Colby grow
up in a house with a man
you don't trust?
[Doorbell rings]
Dixie: Hi.
Liza: Hi.
Tad: Liza.
Liza: Hi.
Adrian: How are you?
Liza: Come in.
Dixie: Thank you.
Tad: Well, look who's here.
Hey, Jake.
Adam: I'm under siege
in my own house.
Tad: Tuck in the princess?
Jake: Well, better yet,
protect her from beast.
Adrian: Are we interrupting
something
Jake: Do you remember when
Liza and I agreed to donate
Colby's stem cells for Dimitri?
Tad: Sure.
Jake: Well, it turns out
we didn't.
Adam, at the last minute,
switched them with somebody
else's.
Tad: So many lives to ruin.
I wonder where he finds
the time.
Jake: Will you please help me
convince Liza to press charges?
Liza: Jake --
Jake: He was tampering.
This is illegal.
Liza: Jake --
Tad: Little brother, I think
you better take a number
and stand in line because
we have a little surprise.
Jake: I don't --
what is this?
Tad: It's an FCC. License
with Adam's name on it.
It proves he took control
of WRCW away from his own wife.
Adam: Oh.
Ooh.
Ow.
Hayley: So you see why I'm
confused.
You remember being trapped
in the car and Mateo walking
away from you.
The EMT's said that you were
out of the car and Mateo was
there.
So if you can remember anything
else, anything at all about how
you got out of the car --
anything.
Ryan: Other than what I told
you, I -- you know,
it's blank.
The EMT said Mateo was there?
Hayley: Yeah.
Ryan: Did you see him?
Hayley: Yeah.
Ryan: Well --
Hayley: I -- I told him that
I knew he was at the crash site.
Ryan: Well, what did he say?
Hayley: He said that he loved
me and that he saw you trapped
in the car.
Ryan: He admitted that?
Hayley: I told him that
you saw him walking away,
and he didn't deny it.
He just looked as if something
horrible had just happened
and he was trying to hide it.
And it gave me chills.
I'm sorry.
Ryan: You?
Why?
Hayley: That he would be
jealous enough to let you die
like that.
I feel very responsible
for that.
I feel like I keep ruining
the lives of people I care
about.
Ryan: Hey, hey.
We don't have all the facts yet.
My memory's still got so many
holes in it.
I shouldn't have said anything
about the accident.
Hayley: But if he pulled
you out of the car, why didn't
he say something to me?
And if he left you there,
then who pulled you out
of the car?
I have to find out what
happened.
Janet: I called all
the neighbors I could think of.
No one's seen Smokey.
Amanda: I should have never
put those little butterflies
in his fur.
Janet: Sweetheart, he didn't
go because you decorated him.
[Telephone rings]
Janet: Hello.
Hello?
Is someone there?
Hello?
Trevor: What was that?
Janet: Wrong number, I guess.
The caller didn't say anything.
So, why don't you and your dad
go search for Smokey.
I'll wait here in case the dog
comes back or someone calls.
Trevor: If at first you don't
succeed, try, try again.
Janet: He probably got lost
chasing a squirrel or something.
Good luck.
Trevor: Yeah, we'll talk
to the squirrels.
Come on, honey.
[Telephone rings]
Janet: Hello?
Who is this?
What do you want?
Why are you doing this?
Hello?
[Dial tone]
Janet: It can't be.
Dixie: Is Colby all right?
Liza: She has a rash
and a fever, but Mimi's reading
to her and Jake just went
to check and see how she was
doing.
Tad: So, Liza, what do
you think?
Looks like we got our proof.
Adam's name on that license says
it all.
We were right.
Duffield is a front.
Has been the entire time.
Liza: Yeah.
Well, what are we waiting for?
Dixie: Well, that didn't take
much convincing.
Liza: Well, I told Tad
in his office that I wasn't
going to put up with Adam
treating people like this
anymore.
He has used too many people.
Adrian: Including yourself.
Tad: Now we've got him.
Liza: How's Colby?
Jake: Well, she's fine.
Her fever dropped.
She's sleeping right now.
Marian: Well, you all look
so conspiratorial.
Tad: For a good reason.
We're going to stick it to Adam.
Marian: How exciting.
You can count me in.
What's the plan?
Liza: Now, before we all get
into war mode here, I just want
to apologize for what Adam's
done to everyone.
Dixie: Apologize?
Honey, he tried to finesse
you out of a TV station.
Liza: Yeah, by default.
He was really after Tad.
I mean, he felt threatened.
He does what Adam did --
he tried to eliminate
the competition.
Adrian: Yeah, but how could
a guy hate another man
for loving his kids?
Tad: Easy.
He's a sociopath with too much
money.
Liza: You know, that anger --
that anger that he feels is
jeopardizing the entire family.
I mean, it -- it really scares
me.
Dixie: If you asked Adam,
I swear he would tell you that
it's out of the love that he has
for Junior.
Liza: You know, I thought
that he understood that love
isn't about control.
Tad: Let's not be gullible.
I mean, he may have changed
the window dressing, but he's
still Adam Chandler, which means
he's going to try to control
everything around him,
including his children.
Look at what Jake's going
through with Colby, and she's
not even his child.
Dixie: At least Colby still
has Jake and you have an ally
to help protect her against
Adam.
Liza: You know, I know
you tried to warn me,
and I didn't listen.
I mean, I trusted him, and we're
all paying for it.
It's -- it's hard to admit that
the man that I love doesn't
exist.
Dixie: Well, sweetie,
you know, he did -- he did some
horrible things.
But at least you still have
Colby and you have all us.
Liza: Thanks.
Adrian: You ok?
Marian: Oh, yes.
Yes, thank you.
Fine.
Adrian: Odd that Adam pulled
a Hooding, isn't it?
Marian: Very.
Adrian: Any idea where
he could be?
Marian: Oh, I have no idea
of Adam's comings and goings
at all.
Adrian: You're sure?
You have no idea?
Marian: Mr. Sword, you doubt
my word?
Adrian: No, not at all,
Marian.
You're always so gracious.
Marian: Look, he bought
Liza's station right out
from under her and swindled
his own brother to do that.
Now, that's how he treats people
that he loves.
I mean, somebody has to stop
that man -- for good.
Adam: Go ahead, Marian.
You be smug while you can,
you self-righteous hypocrite.
Jake: I'm out of here.
Dixie: What, do you have
a big night?
Jake: I got to go back
to the hospital and check
on Gillian.
Dixie: Oh, God.
How is she?
Jake: That's what I need
to find out.
She was just waking up when
I left.
Dixie: Well, will you give
her our love?
Jake: I will, I will.
Good night.
Dixie: Thank you.
Tad: Hey, Jake?
Jake: Yeah?
Tad: You got a minute?
Jake: Sure.
Tad: Listen.
I know you're worried about
Colby.
Jake: Well --
it's Adam.
I'm going to press charges.
I am.
I don't care if Liza agrees --
Tad: Just a second, ok?
Do me a favor.
Just hold off for a little
while, ok?
I've waited a long time.
Now, I got dibs on this one,
all right?
The man just took away
my livelihood, my means
to support my family.
I got to stick it to him while
I can, and Liza's a big part
of that.
Jake: I'm not just going
to let this go, though, Tad.
Tad: I'm not asking
you to let it go, ok?
All I'm saying is just -- just
think of it as a one-two punch,
ok?
First I get mine, then you get
yours.
And Adam gets his right where
he deserves it.
And who knows?
You know, maybe we get lucky.
He'll leave both Colby
and Junior alone.
Jake: Promises, promises.
Tad: Now, wait a minute.
I got Liza on my side at this
point.
You don't. Correct?
Jake: Not yet.
Tad: Ok.
That's what I'm talking about.
Now, you try to press charges,
get him arrested, she's going
to defend him.
Next thing you know,
she's giving him a second
chance.
Jake: So, what are you going
to do?
Tad: Well, take a good look.
She seems pretty upset to me,
you know?
We play this thing right,
she gives him the boot.
Jake: All right.
All right for now.
And then I get my shot.
Tad: All right.
Jake: See you.
Ryan: I remember that I was
going to meet you at BJ.'S.
You had something you wanted
to tell me, something important.
Hayley: I wanted to see
you to make amends.
Ryan: What, you make fun
of something I was wearing?
Hayley: The other night
at Trevor's when Mateo showed
up.
Ryan: You sent us both
packing.
Hayley: Yeah.
You were --
you were just being truthful
with me.
You were showing me how Mateo
was still trying to control
my life, and I didn't want
to hear it, and I got very
defensive and hostile.
Ryan: Hayley --
Hayley: You're my true north,
Ryan.
Remember?
Sometimes I forget that myself,
especially when the truth is
biting me in the butt.
And you were being honest
with me, and that took
tremendous guts, and I just spit
it back in your face,
and I threw you out, and I just
want you to forgive me, please.
[Dog barks]
Janet: Smokey, there you are.
Woman: Janet, it's me,
Sophia.
Janet: Sophia Malinowski.
I thought so.
Sophia: You always were
a smart girl.
Janet: Wait.
Sophia: What, no welcome
wagon?
Janet: It's not a good time.
Sophia: Sure it is.
You're husband and kid are out
looking for the pooch.
We just shared a sandwich,
right, boy?
He's friendlier than you are,
Janet.
Janet: Why are you here?
Sophia: Call it nostalgia.
You've been leading a lux life.
Especially for a dead broad,
huh?
Janet: What do you want?
Sophia: A couple of ex-cons
like us?
Old times, the future.
We got so much to discuss.
Trevor: We're not giving up,
Amanda.
I'm going to go out --
Sophia: The boathouse
tomorrow at dawn.
Janet: Wait --
Sophia: Our secret.
Be there.
Janet: Uh --
hey, guys --
Trevor: Yeah?
Janet: Look who I found.
Amanda: Smokey!
Trevor: Oh.
Janet: Here you go.
Trevor: Hey.
Oh, great.
What is it, honey?
You're shaking like a leaf.
Janet: I just was worried
about Smokey.
I -- I guess I didn't realize
how upset I was till he came
back.
Hayley: No, wait.
Let me show you the one
with the bee in the can.
Wait, it's on this page.
Joe: Folks, sorry to break
this up.
Ryan needs sleep.
Hayley and Ryan: Awww.
Hayley: Fine.
I can take a hint.
I'll leave on one condition --
no wheelchair races unless I'm
around to ride shotgun.
Ryan: You got it.
Hayley: Ok.
I'll see you in the morning.
Ryan: Ok.
Hayley: I'll bring plenty of
chocolate doughnuts.
Ryan: Yes.
Joe: Only if you bring some
for me.
Hayley: Good night.
Ryan: Good night.
Hayley: That ought to hold
you.
Oh, feel better.
Ryan: Ok.
Hayley: Let's blow this
joint.
Hayley: He seems to be doing
better.
Joe: Mm-hmm.
Hayley: Yeah.
Joe: Well, if he doesn't push
it, he'll be out of here soon.
What's troubling you?
Hayley: He doesn't seem
to have much memory
of the accident.
Do you think that, you know,
that'll come back to him?
Joe: Well, that's hard
to say.
Sometimes with trauma like this,
it just wipes out short-term
memory.
Still could come back.
At this point, we just don't
know.
[Ryan dreams about the accident]
Ryan: It's going to blow.
Help --
help me.
It's going to blow.
I can't get out.
Mateo, come back.
Mateo: Just hold on.
I'll be back with help.
Ryan: Oh, my God.
Mateo saved my life.
Marian: So, how do we stick
it to Adam?
Liza: Mother, I think you're
enjoying this a little bit too
much.
[Colby cries]
Marian: It's all right, Liza.
You stay. I'll go.
And you can tell me what I've
missed later.
Bye, all.
Dixie: Bye.
Adrian: So, what's the plan?
Tad: Very simple.
What does Adam value more than
anything else?
All: Adam.
Tad: Exactly.
His ego.
Dixie: Yeah, he puts
his image above everything.
I mean, you know,
Adam the Great,
Adam the Conqueror.
Tad: Well, hang on,
boys and girls, because we are
going to expose Adam the weasel.
And this time there's not going
to be any lawyers or dummy
corporations for him to hide
behind because we're going to do
it publicly.
We're going to reveal
to the world the petty little
man behind the curtain.
All we need to do is tell
the truth.
Our goal -- complete
humiliation.
How do you feel about this,
Liza?
Liza: What do I have to do?
Adrian: Well, we have to find
him first.
Liza: Oh, I don't think
that's going to be a problem.
Even if Adam is cruising
the river Styx, he's going
to show up for the Chandler
Enterprises board meeting.
Adrian: Are you sure about
this?
Liza: Oh, I'm sure about it.
Seems there's been grumbling
amidst the ranks at
his slash-and-burn corporate
policies.
He's set on defending himself.
Tad: Well, then, that's it.
We show up at that meeting,
there'll be no place for him
to hide.
And everyone will know Adam
for exactly who he is.
Adrian: In the biz, we call
it alpha damage.
Adam: This can't be
happening.
Uh-uh.
No, this can't be --
[Adam finds a screwdriver]
