ALL MY CHILDREN

NOVEMBER 8, 1999



Erica: Oh, it's clear that you would say anything to discredit David. But to accuse him of rape -- of raping Gillian? I mean, this is just unimaginable.
Alex: No, I didn't say he raped her. But he did use her as if she were a hooker. That's why I object to him operating on her.
Erica: So here Gillian is ready to have an operation, and you're using her as a battlefield in your vendetta?
Alex: No. Gillian's recovery is my only priority.
Erica: Oh, I'm sorry. If that were case, we would not be having this conversation.
Alex: This is pointless.
Erica: This is also about Dimitri's legacy, isn't it? You don't want David to head the Andrassy foundation, so now you're accusing him of -- of forcing Gillian to have sex for money. This is just -- what are you trying to do, ruin him completely?
Alex: You know, you should talk to David.
Erica: Yes, I will. I'll recommend that he sue you for libel.
Alex: All right. Gillian told me that she was briefly involved with David. I don't whether you knew that. Anyway, so after the affair was over, she found her way back to Ryan. Now, at some point, Ryan was desperate for money, so Gillian went to David to ask for a loan. And apparently he asked her to earn it in his bed.
Erica: That's a lie.
Alex: He took away her dignity, Erica. And quite frankly, that's exactly what he does to any woman unfortunate enough to be involved with him.
David: Is this a private discussion?

Hayley: You were there at the accident site. You saw Gillian on the ground, and you saw Ryan trapped in the car.
Mateo: Yeah.
Hayley: I didn't want to believe it.
Mateo: Believe what, that I was capable of doing something like that when it came to Ryan?
Hayley: I suppose, under the circumstances, anyone would be.
Mateo: But you weren't sure, right? You know what? Neither was I.
Hayley: You know, if someone had run up to me and said, "You'll never believe what Mateo did," I --
Mateo: You couldn't say it, could you? You know, you've been telling me this whole time that you had no idea who I was anymore. And when I saw Ryan in that car, I didn't know who I was, either, really. I -- there was only thing I really did know, one thing that was, well, that was clear to me from the start, was -- is that I love you.

Tad: Well, how nice to see you. Listen, let me ask you a question, ok? Don't you find it ironic that on a day like today when all hell is, you know, breaking lose that a hotshot media executive like yourself, a veritable star in the world of instant communication, should be so damned hard to reach?
Liza: Tad, can you just put it in a memo and I'll deal with it later?
Tad: No. Deal with it now. I'm sick and tired of memos, and I think I deserve better than "later."
Liza: You know, I have this migraine that's starting to fill my entire body. Why don't you just give it a rest.
Tad: I cannot believe you are acting like this. You know, if you want to crawl into bed with a guy like Duffy Duffield and his little band of hatchet monkeys, you go right ahead. But please do me a favor -- have the decency to tell me to my face. Don't send somebody like Leslie Coulson to do it for you.
Liza: What did Leslie Coulson say to you that should have come from me?
Tad: Well, gee, how about, "Sorry, Tad, you're fired."

Marian: You're kidnapping my granddaughter?
Adam: Marian -- why are you lurking? If you have no business here, would you please --
Marian: You would steal her child? Are you out of your mind, Adam?
Adam: You misunderstood.
Marian: I understood perfectly. You just told your pilot to fuel up the jet for you and your daughter.
Adam: For Hayley. My daughter Hayley. She's had a terrible time recently. I thought a little getting-away time would be good for her, maybe an impromptu dinner in Paris.
Marian: That would be a believable lie, Adam, but I know you were referring to your other biological daughter, Colby.
Adam: Jake and Liza have made it quite clear where I stand with Colby. As much as I love her, I am merely a stander.
Marian: Very humble of you, darling. But Liza told me what you did -- breeding her like a horse in one of your stables.
Adam: This is none of your concern.
Marian: I will not have you jeopardize the happiness or well-being of either of my girls, so listen to me. I'm going to tell Liza exactly what you were discussing with your lawyer, and then I'm going to call the police.
Adam: Since when is a man's love for his child a criminal offense?
Marian: When he threatens to kidnap that child. And by the way, Adam, when this all comes to light, no judge, no matter how big the bribe, will ever allow you to see Colby again. You got that one? Oh! Adam! Are you out of your mind?
Adam: We're at a little impasse, Marian. Marian: Will you let me --
Adam: You're protecting your child, and I'm protecting --
Marian: Adam --
Adam: Won't you step right this way.
Marian: My, God. Will you let me go.
Adam: Stop fighting.
Marian: Get your hands off of me! Do you hear me? I said take you hands off of me, Adam, right now!
Adam: Just relax.
Marian: Ow! Ow!
Adam: There you go. I can't allow you to remain on the loose, Marian. Welcome to your new home.

[Adam drags Marian into his safe room]

Adam: Marian, a life with Colby, as her father, is far more important to me than you can possibly imagine. I'm not going to allow you to jeopardize it.
Marian: Wake up, Adam. You've already lost her. And consider yourself lucky that Liza hasn't ripped your heart right out of its chest.
Adam: Hearts can be mended.
Marian: Not hers. She'll never forgive you for what you did -- never.
Adam: This is a safe room, Marian. Unfortunately, men in my position sometimes have to defend themselves against hostile situations, even in their own homes.
Marian: Playrooms for the paranoid, huh?
Adam: These monitors are connected to all the nanny cams throughout the house, and there's audio so you can hear what's being said.
Marian: Adam, this is going too far, even for you.
Adam: There's plenty of gourmet food, you have a state-of-the-art bathroom, and books to pass the time.
Marian: How long do you intend on keeping me in here?
Adam: In a perfect world?
Marian: And you're going to kidnap Colby, right?
Adam: What I do is none of your business.
Marian: Oh, real? Well, I'm going to get out of here if I have to claw my way out with my fingernails, you hear me?
Adam: That would be a neat trick.
Marian: I've got a voice that can shatter glass, Adam.
Adam: Yes, even in regular conversation. But these walls are soundproof. A small army could fire off a thousand rounds and not make a dent.
Marian: People will come looking for me, Adam, once they know I'm missing. And Stuart has a radar for me just like a dolphin. He'll find me.
Adam: No. No one will ever think to look for you here. So say good-bye to the outside world, Marian, because you are going to be here as long as it takes me to accomplish what I have to do.

Liza: How could Leslie Coulson fire you?
Tad: I don't know, Liza. You tell me. She paraded in here like she had enough juice to do whatever she damn well pleased.
Liza: Not with my station.
Tad: Well, it's not really your station anymore, is it, pal? And that's why my corporate credit card was canceled, that's why half my staff is missing, and that's why they pulled the plug on my show 30 seconds before I went to tape with Erica Kane, which is just fine anyway because I really didn't have anything to offer the poor woman except a stale doughnut and tap water. I've never been so damned embarrassed in my entire life. And as far as I'm concerned, you signed off on WRCW the second you signed over.
Liza: Wait a second. Datcom is a silent partner. I have 40%.
Tad: No, not so silent. You only got it half right. You see, Leslie told me all about your 40% and Datcom's 40%. But you failed to think about that little 20% share supposedly held by friendly interests.
Liza: What about it?
Tad: Guess what, gorgeous? You need to get yourself better friends because whoever was hanging on to that little tasty piece of the pie is chewing on a nice big dividend check right about now.
Liza: Those shares were sold?
Tad: Yeah, you bet they were sold. And I don't have to tell you there's a lot of people in this studio that are out of work, and it's not just me. Congratulations. Hope you enjoy your time off. I got to go pack up my desk.
Liza: Oh, please don't leave. Please.
Stuart? It's Liza. No, I'm not very good. Have you sold some stock lately? Barry came by -- Adam's attorney? And cat food stock? No, I know you don't like to read the fine print. No, just give my mother my love. Adam.

Mateo: See? Don't you understand that despite everything we've been through, my love for you is still there and that's why I'm fighting so hard not to lose it?
Hayley: Or trying to prove that you don't need it?
Mateo: I regret that
Hayley: Do you remember the first time we met?
Mateo: Yeah, of course I do.
Hayley: My world -- my world seemed so pointless and so empty. And then there you were, like a promise of something that I had long ago given up hoping for.
Mateo: We both saved each other that night, huh?
Hayley: I thought that it would be like that forever. I never dreamed that everything would turn out so different.
Mateo: Meaning me?
Hayley: Can you honestly say that you're the same man you were when we met?
Mateo: No. After Ryan, no. I'm -- I'm a hard person.
Hayley: Tell me what happened at the accident site.
Mateo: The car was totaled, Gillian was on the ground, the power lines were throwing sparks everywhere, and I smelled the gas leaking on the ground. I pulled Gillian clear. Then I looked in the car, and I saw Ryan. He was still there. I mean, here's the person that I blamed for ruining my life. I mean, my whole life has gone down the tubes because of him --
Hayley: Mateo --
Mateo: And I just want to go back to a place -- I just want to go back to a place where my memories of you aren't touched by him. You understand? Where you kissing him doesn't play in my head all the time. And I actually thought that, you know, maybe I was halfway there, I could change the future because it's up to whether he lives or dies.
Hayley: Oh, God.
Mateo: And all I could think of was you and my love for you.
Hayley: I don't want that, Mateo.
Mateo: What are you talking about?
Hayley: I don't ever want anyone to love me so much that they're willing to let someone die.
Mateo: Let someone die? You think I left him there?
Hayley: If it hadn't been for the rescue workers you could you chose to do nothing. You left him there.

David: Well, I've obviously interrupted something. Did you need something, doctor?
Alex: How's Gillian's status?
David: Still critical, but stable. We're prepping her for surgery.
Alex: Good. I'm going to observe.
David: I'll teach you what I can.
Alex: Whatever. Erica.

Erica: David --
David: Just a moment. Postpone all my appointments until further notice. I'll be in surgery. Thank you. I'll keep you informed, Erica. I'm sure that you're anxious to hear about Gillian's progress.
Erica: David, are you sure what you're doing is ethical?
David: And why wouldn't it be?
Erica: You're operating on a former lover who despises you. Can you be trusted with her life?
David: Gillian means no more to me than any other patient.
Erica: I gather you and Gillian were lovers. And when it was over, she came to you for financial assistance and you gave her the money that she wanted, but not without exacting a very heavy price.
David: Did Alex tell you this?
Erica: Is it true

[telephone rings]

David: It's irritating.
Yes, Dr. Hayward here. Put him on. Just a moment. I don't care how many surgical cases are backed up right now. I need an OR. Now, get me one before you leave or don't bother coming back to this hospital. Yes, that would mean that you're off my team. Yes, get in touch with Joe Martin. Tell him I need an OR. For the Andrassy case. And get me a new anesthesiologist.
Erica: So are you going to explain yourself or not?
Erica: Erica, I'm sorry if the garbage that Alex is spewing right now is not my main concern.
Erica: Oh, excuse me. I realize I'm not having an operation, but I do deserve an explanation.
David: Fine. Gillian and I were involved at one time, ok? But it ended, and that is all there is to it. We saw each other again briefly. We had -- we had a physical encounter.
Erica: She came to you for help, for money.
David: Oh, right. I forgot the part where I forced her to put out in exchange for cash.
Erica: This isn't a joke.
David: No, it is a joke, Erica. Do you honestly think that I'm the kind of man that needs extort a woman for sex?
Erica: And if I ask Gillian?
David: Well, I wouldn't expect to hear anything that's going to make you feel happy.
Erica: Why not? Why wouldn't she tell me the same story?
David: Do you really think she's going to tell you that she used her sexuality to get what she wanted, that her actions made her feel like a common tramp? I'm sorry, Erica. How Gillian feels about her behavior is really not my problem. Excuse me.
Erica: That's all you have say?
David: You're not going to see me fall to my knees begging your forgiveness for things that happened before you and I were even involved.
Erica: I can't say what happened. I don't know who to believe.
David: You know who I am, Erica -- part saint, part sinner, and the most exciting man you've ever known.

Mateo: Did Ryan tell you I walked away from the crash?
Hayley: He saw you turn your back on him.
Mateo: Well, then he must be right.
Hayley: I didn't want to believe it.
Mateo: Really?
Hayley: Yes. How could I ever possibly want to believe that you were capable of something like that?
Mateo: Kind of makes what you're doing with Ryan a lot easier, doesn't it? If I'm the guy that's this confused, crazy guy that you barely got away from?
Hayley: I was not trying to run away from you, Mateo. I remember the person you once were. I just -- I just don see that person anymore.
Mateo: Yeah, you don't, do you? I guess I was just a dream, huh?
Hayley: I never thought you were.
Mateo: Why are you here? Huh? Why'd you come here? To tell me what kind of lowlife I am? Is that what you want?
Hayley: I came here hoping that maybe I --
Mateo: No, you weren't hoping anything. You're not hoping anything. Obviously, what we had is in the past. It's gone. You were my life, you know that? You got what you came for. Get out. Get the hell out. Go!

Liza: Adam's prints are all over this. And I thought he was being so supportive, you know, asking me to cut back and spend time with my daughter.
Tad: And all the time he was just trying to get even with me for being a loving stepfather to his son. Apparently, you don't come between Adam and his children and live to tell about it.
Liza: Oh. Oh, I would love to give him just a taste of what he's been giving me, have him choke on it.
Tad: Wow. This is a switch. I didn't think it was going to be so easy to pull you down to my level considering how naive you've been lately.
Liza: He doesn't care about the consequences of his actions. I can't believe that I was stupid enough to think that I was changing.
Tad: I don't want to tell you I told you so, pal. But the next time you try to save somebody, just make sure they want to be saved.
Liza: I want to make sure that he engineered this takeover. I think we should do whatever it takes.
Tad: I'm already working on it,. I promise you.
Liza: Yeah.
Tad: In the meantime, I think you've been through enough for one day, so do us both a favor -- go home and take it easy.
Liza: I don't want to see him.
Tad: I know, I know, sweetie. So don't see him, all right? Go home and hug my niece. Focus on the good stuff.
Liza: Yeah. I'll just look in her eyes.
Tad: I know all about that. That's what Dixie said. She tells me that we have children to keep our hearts in the right place.
Liza: Yeah.
Tad: It's too bad that never worked for Adam. And then again, I'm not sure he ever gave it half a chance.
Liza: Well, I'm never going to hope for that ever again.
Tad: I'm sorry.
Liza: Yeah. Me, too. Me, too.

Adam: I'll check in on you from time to time, Marian.
Marian: Adam, you can't leave me locked up like this in here.
Adam: Well, maybe next time you'll learn to mind your own bloody business. This remote is the only way in and only way out of this room. But have no fear. You have a TV remote right there. Hasta la vista.
Marian: Adam, wait! Oh, no, listen. I might be in here for weeks, Adam. You can't expect me to wear the same clothes day after day, can you? And I'm also really very claustrophobic. I already feel the walls closing in on me here, Adam. Are you sure there's enough air to breathe in here?
Adam: I'm sure there's everything you can possibly need in here. With all the money I spent on this place, you should live like a queen.
Marian: Please, Adam. Let me out of here, please! Adam: Marian -- no, no, no.
Marian: Please! Oh, there's Liza in the study. Liza, help! I'm in here! Help!
Adam: Would you just shut up your mouth?
Marian: Agh!

[Marian struggles with Adam, knees him "where it hurts" and grabs the remote]

Adam: Oh!
Marian: Agh!

[Marian escapes the safe room and locks Adam in]

Adam: You better cut your losses, lady. Don't even think about leaving me in here.
Marian: Oh, how sweet it is. Divine justice at last.
Adam: You're deluding yourself. I built this place. How long do you think it's going to take me to escape?
Marian: This remote is the only way in and the only way out, Adam. Unless, of course, you were lying about that, as well.
Adam: Well, maybe I was and maybe I wasn't. Are you willing to try me?
Marian: It's time somebody did. You know, I can't believe it, that you have no remorse about what you did. You have no feelings at all for Liza, do you?
Adam: I love her with all of my heart, you twit.
Marian: You impregnated her without her consent. The mere idea of that makes me sick.
Adam: All it proves was how desperately I wanted to have a child with Liza. But you couldn't possibly appreciate a love that profound.
Marian: Oh, please. That's blasphemous coming from you. Adam Chandler against the world and everybody in it, right? Listen to me. You had a gift when you had Liza. She could have helped you with your fear and your contempt. But how did you handle that gift? You spit on it, just like you do on everything else.
Adam: That's enough.
Marian: And that wasn't enough for you, was it, Adam? You had to cheat your own brother out of his own WRCW stocks so you could win the station from Liza and fire Tad. You are despicable!
Adam: You keep Stuart in mind because he's going to begin to wonder where I am.
Marian: No one's going to look for you in here. Remember, no one knows about it. It's ironic, isn't it, Adam? You built this room to protect your family, and that's exactly what this room is going to do. It's going to protect them from you.
Adam: Marian -- Marian -- I'm going to make it my mission in life --
Marian: Bye, darling.
Adam: To make you regret --
Marian: Bye!
Oh, God. That was the most exciting thing I have ever done in my entire life. Yes!

Adrian: Hey, what are you doing in here?
Tad: Take a look. Sit down.
Adrian: Looks like a stock deal.
Tad: No. Terms of a stock deal between a company called Datcom and WRCW. I need a favor. How do you feel about a little big-game hunting?
Adrian: Well, that depends. You know I don't hunt for sport. Tad: Well, how about moral indignation, sticking it to the bad guy, that kind of thing?
Adrian: That depends. Does this evil have a name?
Tad: Adam Chandler. And wait till you hear what he's done this time.

Hayley: Uncle Trev --
Trevor: Tink, Tink, everything's ok. Ryan's fine. They just took him off for some tests. What are you upset about?
Hayley: Ryan was starting to piece together what happened. He was trapped in the car before it blew.
Trevor: Yeah, but he got out. I mean, you should be singing hosannas about that, huh?
Hayley: Mateo was there.
Trevor: Yeah, lucky for Ryan.
Hayley: Mateo walked away.
Trevor: After the EMT. Guys left, right?
Hayley: Mateo was there, saw Ryan trapped in the car, and left him there to die.
Trevor: Is that what Ryan said?
Hayley: Ryan was drifting in and out, and he started murmuring things. You know, he started with -- you know, he was saying, "Mateo, help me, please." And then he said, "Mateo, come back." And so I asked him. You know, I was, like, "Ryan, did Mateo leave you there?" And he shook -- you know, he nodded his head, and I took that to mean yes.
Trevor: You better be absolutely certain about that.
Hayley: I went to Mateo. Believe me, I was praying I had this all wrong.
Trevor: And you were wrong.
Hayley: No, I was not. Mateo left him there.
Trevor: Mateo admitted this?
Hayley: Mateo said that he was standing there looking at Ryan and that he knew he had a choice to make.
Trevor: To walk away from a guy who's pleading for his life? Not Mateo.
Hayley: He did it because he loved me. He just wanted a chance to make things right between us again. You know, like, if he just -- in his mind, if he just wiped Ryan off the face of the earth, then everything would be fine.
Trevor: Tink --
Hayley: You know, he just -- he wanted to give us a clean slate, like, so things could be the way they used to be -- just him and me.
Trevor: What you're saying is that Mateo's gone off his rocker. No way. He's not going to leave some guy to die.
Hayley: You know, Ryan may have survived, but the Mateo we know just doesn't exist anymore.

Isabella: Mijo.

Mateo: Hey. How you doing, Ma?
Isabella: Can I help you? I won't carry the boxes, but I can help you count them.
Mateo: No, I'm almost done.
Isabella: Mm-hmm. You spoke with Father Tony?
Mateo: Yeah. Did he fill you in?
Isabella: Oh, no, no. That's between you two, Mateo.
Mateo: Yeah. You know, I was -- I was holding a lot inside, you know?
Isabella: I know.
Mateo: I was really angry at Ryan.
Isabella: You blame him for coming between you and Hayley.
Mateo: Mom, I blame him, I cursed him, I wanted him dead.
Isabella: I understand now why you were angry.
Mateo: Yeah, that's just it. I'm not angry anymore. It's all get -- I don't -- I don't feel anything. Nothing at all.

Erica: These games you play with women, David, they don't excite me.
David: Am I to atone for my past, my present, and presumably my future when it comes to you, Erica? This is who I am. You have known that right from the start, and obviously you've enjoyed it.
Erica: I just don't see how you can be one way with me and something totally different with the rest of the world.
David: I'm not. I'm not. I did not prostitute Gillian. Why are you taking Alex's word over mine?
Erica: It seems you took advantage of Gillian.
David: Have I taken advantage of you?
Erica: Not yet.
David: Look, Alex would like nothing better than to defame me professionally as well as personally.
Erica: And why is that? Did you do something to her to make her hate you so much? Are you hiding something, David?
Alex: Excuse me. The surgical team is ready for you now, doctor.
Alex: And a suggestion -- you won't get the best out of people by threatening them.
David: How I handle my OR. Is none of your business, doctor.
Alex: Well, actually, it is because it involves Gillian.
David: I was in the middle of something here. If you don't mind, I'll see you in the OR.
Erica: No, please. I'm leaving. You two can scratch each other's eyes out.

David: I don't appreciate the story that you told Erica.
Alex: Hmm. The truth can sometimes put a damper on things.
David: Your version of the truth.
Alex: Well, actually, it's Gillian's version of the truth. I just happen to be in a position to know she's probably right.
David: The same Gillian who can't speak for herself right now.
Alex: Her story won't change when she recovers.
David: Well, I guess that depends on me, doesn't it?
Alex: Yeah. And believe me, I'm going to be watching your every move.

Isabella: Mateo, what happened to you?
Mateo: Ryan got in a car accident. I was there. I mean, he was trapped in the car, and instead of jumping in there to save him, I froze.
Isabella : But you saved his life.
Mateo: Yes. I did. But for a moment there, I thought I had a choice not to. I didn't want to save him, Mom.
Isabella: But it's because of you that he's alive now.
Mateo: Yeah, I know, but I stopped before I did anything. And, I don't know, I think that's almost as bad as leaving him there to die, you know? I just --
Isabella: Mateo, you know who you are. Don't ever doubt that.
Mateo: Yeah. You know, Hayley thinks that I left him there, that I was going to leave him there to burn in his car.
Isabella: No, no. No, she loves you. More than anyone else she knows that you would never walk away from someone who needs you.
Mateo: That's exactly what she believes. And it breaks my heart.

Trevor: Mateo would not walk away from Ryan no matter what. It really makes we wonder what really went down at that accident.
Hayley: What went down is that Mateo lost his soul. I mean, does it really need to be any more horrible than that?
Trevor: No -- it just needs to be more accurate.
Hayley: I told you the story.
Trevor: That's what Ryan said. Ryan is going to remember what Ryan wants to remember.

[Marian talks to one of Adam's video monitors as Adam watches from the safe room]

Marian: Hi, Adam. Are you enjoying yourself, darling? Reading some of those great books or having one of those gourmet meals? Maybe you're stretched out watching reruns of "I Love Lucy." Oh, I'm sure you're having a great time down there, darling.

Liza: Mother, what are you doing here?
Marian: I was wondering where you were, darling.
Liza: I went to work. I went to work. Only, do you know what? It's not my work anymore. It's not my station anymore. I've been snookered again -- all of us have.
Marian: What are you talking about, Liza?
Liza: I was stripped of control of WRCW.
Marian: How is that possible?
Liza: Mother, you know, I don't even want to tell you this. But Adam's lawyer talked Stuart into selling his WRCW shares.
Marian: What?
Adam: Oh, damn!
Liza: Yes, what. I can't believe he would be that sloppy. He must -- he used Barry. He thinks we're idiots.
Marian: Isn't the first time that Adam underestimated us --
Liza: Oh, boy, you don't have to tell me that.

Adam: Oh, shut up!

Marian: He probably had much weightier things on his mind at the time, darling.
Liza: Yeah, like hiding the fact that he's Colby's father.
Marian: Listen, darling, what's important right now is that you are that dear sweet little child's mother, and you've got to stay strong for her, Liza, ok? You've got to. Come here, darling. Listen to me. No matter what or how desperate Adam becomes, I will never let him hurt you or Colby again. Do you hear me? And that's a promise. I love you, Liza.

David: If you're going to take me on, Alex, you'd better be up for the challenge.
Alex: You know I am. I'm watching you, David. Now, come on. You've got a surgery to perform.
David: Last one standing wins, Alex.

Isabella: Mateo, you need to speak with Hayley.
Mateo: There's nothing to say. Mom, I've tried everything to work things out with her. I gave her space because I was hoping that she'd come back to me. And she didn't. You know, sometimes you just have to let go. And I'm ready to do that now.

Hayley: Let me tell you something. Ryan is no liar.
Trevor: Tink, I'm not saying that he's a liar. I'm just saying his memories about the accident might not be accurate.
Hayley: Well, if Mateo didn't walk away from him, then why didn't he say something to me?
Trevor: I don't know. I wasn't there.
Hayley: Well, I was there. I'm going to go check on Gillian and see how she's doing. Excuse me.

Trevor: Say, could you do me a favor? Do you know where the MT Guys are that brought in Ryan Lavery and Gillian Andrassy?
Nurse: I'll see if I can find them.
Trevor: Yeah, that'd be great. I just need to talk to them.
Nurse: Ok.
Trevor: Story, story, what's the story?

Adrian: So you think Datcom's in Adam's back pocket?
Tad: I'm sure of it. Just a little door prize for being named stepfather of the year.
Adrian: Yeah, well, friend, that sounds great, but need proof.
Tad: I think we'll find it in Leslie cousin's briefcase. She tried to hide something when she was here handing out pink slips earlier. You want me to get some crayons? What are you doing?
Adrian: Take a look.
Tad: Ok, you print like a third-grader. What's the point?
Adrian: I'm figuring it out. I am figuring it out. I'm figuring it out. I'm figuring it out. All right, yeah. Yeah.
Tad: What?
Adrian: Just wait. Just wait. I think Adam set up Datcom to destroy you, my friend.
Tad: "Moc Tad." "Datcom" spelled backwards.
Adrian: That's right.
Tad: Who knew Adam had a sense of humor?
Adrian: Well, whatever is in that briefcase, we got to get our hands on it quickly.
Tad: I'm way ahead of you. Let's go.
Adrian: Let's go, let's go.

Liza: Mother, I have to check on Colby. Have you seen Adam?
Marian: No. He's probably keeping a low profile around you.
Liza: Yeah, well, if I never see him again, my life might just turn out perfect.

Marian: Did you hear that, Adam, hmm? She said she'd love it if you fell right off the face of the earth. Oh, and you may be wondering how long I'm planning on keeping you in there, darling. Oh, just about as long as it takes to do whatever I need to do. And I don't intend to hurry. So enjoy your reading, darling.
