Bianca: I lost so many people
last year.
I don't know if I could take it
if I lost Frankie, too.
Leo: I wouldn't listen
to a word you said about --
and you were right about
everything.
Greens, if it takes the rest
of my life, I want to make this
up to you.
Tad: I love you.
Dixie: I love you, too.
But this is over.
TODAY'S - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Greenlee: Can't you tell me
how long he'll be in there?
Nurse: No.
Leo: Greenlee.
Is it your father?
Greenlee: No, no, no.
He's still all right.
Leo: Good, that's --
that's a relief, right?
Greenlee: Definitely,
definitely a big relief.
It was sweet of you to track me
do to check, though.
Leo: Actually, I was --
I was here to --
Greenlee: Jake.
Jake: Listen, I'm really busy
right now, so --
Greenlee: Well, can't you spare me even one single
second, even to talk about
my father?
Leo: Look, you guys go ahead.
I'm -- Laura's waiting.
Greenlee: Laura?
Did you say Laura?
Leo: Yeah.
She -- she asked to see me.
Greenlee: Why?
Leo: That's what I'm here
to find out.
Greenlee: Watch out
for chloroform bottles
and laundry carts.
[Leo chuckles]
Leo: Ok, I will.
Jake: Listen, the last
I heard, your father's condition
is continuing to improve.
But if you want a more detailed
report, you're going to have
to see Hayward.
Greenlee: No, I don't need
a doctor, Jake.
I need you.
Erica: What was she thinking?
What am I saying?
Greenlee Smythe never had
a thought in her head.
Chris: From CEO mogul
goddess to file clerk?
That's not just a demotion --
that's a tragedy.
Erica: Well, that poor excuse
for skin, Greenlee Smythe -- do
you have any idea what she did?
Chris: Uh -- "Pine Valley
of the Apes", was it?
Erica: Yeah, well,
in addition to sabotaging a very
promising ad campaign, she seems
to have established a whole new
system of filing -- I mean,
no alphabetizing, no arranging
things according to heading
or according to product
description, no, no, no.
She had three ways to file.
Everything went under either
"hip", "has promise"
or "gag me."
I mean, "gag me" --
look at this.
Three files, three disgustingly
overstuffed files!
Chris: What does it matter
to you as long as she can find
things?
Relax.
Erica: You're right,
you're right.
You know, what does that
to me?
Because she will never step foot
in this building again.
I fired her.
Chris: You what?
Erica: Well, after
her stalking situation was
smeared all over the industry,
I really had no choice.
Chris: Of course you did.
You -- you could've called me
first.
Erica: Excuse me?
Chris: Look, why show
restraint or reason when you can
just erupt!
Erica: If my decision
interferes with your drug
investigation, tough!
Chris: No, no, no.
No, it interferes with us
working as a team, together,
every time you have a knee-jerk
reaction to a situation.
You're right, it's going to make
it a hell of a lot tougher
for Roger now that he doesn't
have access to the company
computer.
But that's secondary for right
now.
Erica: Yeah, you're damn
right it is!
But, hey, call the boys
in Washington, you know?
Have me locked up.
Chris: Aside from Greenlee
and me, what's really gnawing
you?
Erica: It's every mother's
dream, isn't it?
It's what we hope and pray for.
Bianca has found love.
She's in love.
Isn't that great?
Isn't that just cause
for rejoicing all over
the world?
[Loud music plays]
[Pounding on door]
Frankie: Opal, I turned it
down!
I swear I did!
Bianca: Hey! What was that?
Frankie: Hey.
I thought you were Opal.
Bianca: What is it?
What are you listening to?
[Music stops]
Bianca: What is this?
Frankie: Uh, nothing much.
It's --
Bianca: Frankie,
it's the locket that I gave you.
It's broken.
Dixie: Ahem.
J.R.: Mom, are you
tailing me?
Dixie: J.R., we were suppose
to talk after school,
and you just threw down
your books and ran out.
J.R.: Yeah, well, I've got
to practice sculling.
Dixie: Well, I've been
waiting all day.
J.R.: Well, tell me so I can
get to my workout.
Dixie: I had this rehearsed.
J.R.: Spit it out.
I mean, how bad can it be?
Dixie: There's no way for it
to be easy.
Um --
Tad and I are breaking up again.
J.R.: You're not moving me
down to Pigeon Hollow again,
are you?
Dixie: No.
No, no, no, no, no.
Tad is the one that's moving,
not us.
J.R.: When was this decided?
Dixie: A few days ago.
We wanted to wait to tell
you so that you and Jamie could
have a happy Thanksgiving.
J.R.: Whatever.
Dad will know where to find us.
Thanks for keeping me posted.
Dixie: Wait a second.
I mean, I think we, you know,
we should discuss this, right?
J.R.: Why?
It's a done deal for now, right?
Dixie: No, this time it's
permanent.
J.R.: Why does that sound
so familiar?
Oh, that's right --
you've said it before.
Dixie: J.R., you're not
listening.
J.R.: "Tad and I are calling
it quits, Honey.
He's moving all of his stuff
out, but don't you worry.
We still love you much
as ever."
Hey, listen, Mom, I've heard it
all.
Dixie: This is serious.
J.R.: It always is.
Just don't go redecorating
because you're just going
to have to redo it all when
he comes back.
Leo's voice: Brooke, I want
you to cash this check.
It's not everything,
not by a long shot.
But it's my first installment,
and I'm going to keep giving
you these until I've completely
paid you back.
Laura: Payback for what, Leo?
[Knock on door]
Laura: Come in.
Leo: Hey.
How are you feeling?
Laura: Better.
Nice of you to be concerned.
Leo: Yeah, look --
Laura, I'm sorry.
I didn't -- I didn't -- I didn't
mean to hang up on you.
It didn't even occur to me that --
Laura: That I might possibly
be telling the truth?
Leo: Look, maybe this should
wait until you're back
on your feet.
Until you're stronger.
What are you doing?
Maybe you should go back to bed,
Laura.
Laura: No, no, no.
I'm strong enough to put
everything out on the table.
And why shouldn't we?
I know what you've been up to.
Erica: I'm all right.
Thank you. So
I just better be all right.
I mean, this is just
the beginning, isn't it?
Chris: Well, it's got to be
a shock when -- when the child
you've nursed through croup
and chickenpox all of a sudden
grows up on you one day.
Erica: That doesn't beg
to cover what I'm going through.
Chris: Well, one day,
you're the guiding force
in her life, and the next day,
she's handing that title over
to someone else.
You know, Erica, I -- I think
that all parents go through this
sooner or later.
Erica: Chris, look --
forgive me if I don't find
comfort in your words,
t I highly doubt that you have
ever had this exact experience
that I'm going through.
Chris: True.
I've never had a daughter fall
in love with another woman
but I do recognize raw fear when
I see it, Erica.
Erica: That's awfully
dramatic.
Chris: Darling, you --
I sympathize.
You got to let yourself off
the hook.
You can't go on thinking you can
protect Bianca day in, day out
for the rest of her life.
It's impossible.
Erica: Chris, when Travis
took Bianca away from
Pine Valley, I had this
recurring nightmare.
I mean, I was alone on a beach.
I was lost on a crowded beach.
And then all of a sudden,
would find myself under
the water with somebody pulling
me down or something just
pulling me down.
And I couldn't get above
the waves.
I was drowning.
I mean, you don't have to be
a rocket scientist or Dr. Freud
to recognize abandonment fears.
Chris: Well, for what it's
worth, I -- I think that
you and Travis have done a fine
job raising Bianca.
Erica: Thank you.
I'd like to think so.
It's just that Travis' death was
so sudden, and Bianca is still
grieving.
I mean, she and her father,
they just adored each other.
Chris: Sweetheart, you know,
you never stop missing the ones
that you love, never.
Erica: I found Bianca
at my mother's grave.
I mean, I heard her.
She was thanking her grandmother
for helping to bring me around
in my acceptance of Frankie.
Chris: Your what?
Erica: It's my latest
strategy.
I mean, I have to try to --
to accept Frankie for Bianca's
sake because Bianca cannot
endure another loss.
She -- she told me that.
And I ache for her, Chris.
I ache for her.
I don't know how she can
continue to be so loving and --
and kind in the face of all
the loss that she's experienced.
I mean, I miss my father
so much.
Chris: What?
Erica: What?
Chris: No, no, you --
you just said that you miss
your father.
Erica: Then I just must've
gotten it mixed up.
Chris: No, no, no.
I don't think so.
See, you miss your father
as much as Bianca misses hers.
That's why this is ripping
you apart.
You see more of yourself
in Bianca than you want
to admit, Erica.
Bianca: Frankie, it's --
it's busted already.
Frankie: It is.
I -- I'm really sorry, Bianca.
It was an accident.
It had to be.
Bianca: You didn't even
notice it was on the ground?
Frankie: See?
This is why I shouldn't have
nice things.
Please --
please don't hate me.
Bianca: It's just a locket,
right?
Frankie: No, it's not.
It means a lot more to you than
just a hunk of jewelry.
Bianca: Frankie, I didn't - I didn't want to pressure
you or make you feel
uncomfortable.
That's not why I gave this
to you.
Frankie: No.
I put it on my desk last night.
I --
probably -- probably the maid
knocked it over or somebody,
and when I was rocking out
to my music, I guess I --
I guess I just stomped on it.
Bianca: Stuff happens. He
this is nothing that can't be
fixed.
Frankie: You know, since it's
so valuable and all,
why don't -- why don't you hold
on to it?
I can't be trusted with it.
Bianca: Frankie, I trust you
with everything.
I -- I'm always going to.
Frankie: Watch out.
What's that saying about
learning your lesson,
Repeating history?
Bianca: I'll risk it.
Frankie: Damn!
Ow!
Bianca: What?
Frankie: Oh, it feels like
a bird just flew in my eye.
Bianca: What -- what is it?
Let me see.
Frankie: Oh, it'll come out
on its own.
It just --
Bianca: No, no, no, no.
don't move around so much.
Let me see.
Frankie: Oh.
Can you see anything?
Bianca: Yeah.
Good news --
it's an eyelash, not an eagle.
Make a wish.
Frankie: What?
Bianca: You've never done
this before?
You just -- you make a wish
and close your eyes and blow
your eyelash away, and it comes
true.
Frankie: I don't think
the wish Gods would grant me
anything if they see me
for the fake I really am.
Bianca: Frankie, don't be
so hard on yourself.
This is not a living,
breathing thing, and you don't
need it to remember that
somebody cares about you.
Frankie: You gave me
your heart.
Bianca: You still got it.
Smile.
Close your eyes and make a wish.
Frankie: You're too old
to believe in magic.
Bianca: You're too old
not to.
Frankie: Oh-
ok, ok.
Bianca: Did you --
did you really wish?
Frankie: I wished
for the courage to tell you
that I love you, too.
Jake: Have you had any sleep
since last night at all?
Greenlee: Not at all.
All this stuff is churning
around in my head.
Jake, I don't even know who
my father is or what's going on.
We both know his heart trouble
is legitimate, medically
speaking.
Jake: Mm-hmm.
Greenlee: But his memory
lapse?
It's so convenient.
Jake: Why would he fake it?
Greenlee: Why would he leave
my office and end up in a hotel
in Philadelphia?
What if he's up to something
horrible and that's why he's
so interested in Enchantment'?
Jake: Greenlee, do you have
to go looking for trouble?
Greenlee: I never have
to look.
I'm a magnet.
Jake: All right.
Well, when blood flow is
affected, memory loss can occur.
Greenlee: But not all
the time?
Jake: Not all the time, no.
Greenlee: So it could be
an act.
Jake: Well, then, why don't
you confront him and find out?
Greenlee: Jake, he has a bad
heart.
It could give him a fatal
coronary.
Jake: Greenlee, if his memory
lapse is really on the
up and up, why would he get mad?
I mean, he might get a little
confused or think you're nuts
or something, but --
Greenlee: Do you
think I'm nuts?
Don't answer that.
There are so many unanswered
questions, Jake.
I mean, part of me thinks that
I should just forget about him.
I should just disconnect,
ignore him and the whole
situation and let him screw up
his own life.
Jake: Assuming that that's what he is doing.
Greenlee: But I can't.
I can't just write him off
why are you smiling?
Jake: Because I just think
that character growth is
so satisfying.
Greenlee: Jake, are
you accusing me of being
a little less shallow than
I used to be?
Jake: Well, that would be
my diagnosis, yes.
Greenlee: Then, you must know
the cause.
Jake: Life experience?
Greenlee: You.
Jake: Oh, so some of my ,
upstanding martin attributes are
contagious, huh?
Greenlee: I don't think
you can love someone who's
better than you are
without learning something.
Leo: What I've been up to?
What are you --
Laura: Oops -- I meant what
you've been up against.
I should have picked up on all
those signals and hints,
but I -- I guess I just didn't
want to face it.
Leo: Ok.
I'm -- I'm still lost.
I don't know what we're talking
about.
Laura: About the marriage,
and what went wrong -- or,
actually, of course,
nothing went right.
I don't know about you, Leo.
What -- what were you after?
Leo: I -- I tried.
Laura: We said "I love you"
often, but I guess that wasn't
enough.
Leo: Laura, I cared for you.
I still care for you.
I guess the -- I guess I thought
that, you know, saying the words
and being married was,
you know -- that would make
everything ok.
Laura:. Poor Leo.
You really gave it your best,
didn't you?
Leo: Yeah, well, I convinced
myself that I could make it
work.,
If I had just been honest
with myself from the beginning,
I would've saved us both a lot
of anguish.
Laura: Hmm. Not to mention everything that
Greenlee's been through.
Leo: Well, I'm to blame
there, too.
It's not just you.
Laura: No, we were both
wrong.
Leo: Look, I'm sorry.
Laura: Leo, stop.
Leo: I'm -- I'm sorry.
Laura: I don't want to see
you beat yourself up.
Leo: Ok, I just want
you to know that I sincerely,
deeply regret everything that's
happened to you.
Laura: I know more than
you think I know.
Leo: Well, I guess
the question is -- can
you accept it?
Laura: I have.
Honestly, Leo.
I'm ready to let you go.
Leo: You agree that
our marriage was a mistake?
Laura: Well, Leo, you married
me for the wrong reasons.
Leo: Laura, I --
I only wanted to help you.
Laura: And you were so noble
and self-sacrificing, but that
was wrong.
We were both wrong.
You think we can still be
friends?
Leo: Uh --
do you mean it?
Laura: Can you forgive me,
after all the wretched things
I' done?
I mean, landing back here
in the hospital has real been
the wake-up call that I need.
I mean, life is too short
to waste any time.
No more lost causes for me.
Leo: That's -- that's good.
Laura: Yeah, I'm going
to take control of my life.
I'm even thinking of seeing that
therapist.
Leo: Get out.
That's great!
I think that you should take
advantage of everything that's
out there.
This is -- this is --
this is, uh, very good.
Laura: Mm-hmm.
Leo: This is fantastic that
you're really coming around,
Laura.
Laura: Isn't it?
Leo: Yeah.
Laura: I'm just so surprised
it took me so long to catch on.
Leo: Aw, who cares?
Who cares?
The -- what matters is that
you're taking steps to make
yourself better.
That's -- you know,
until you get sprung out
of here, then we'll talk about
whatever it is that we have
to do to see everything.
Laura: Sure.
Leo: Ok.
Well, we'll talk.
And in the meantime, take care.
Laura: You bet.
Leo: Ok.
Laura: I'll take care --
of you.
Bianca: I wished for it, too. I couldn't help it.
Thank you.
Frankie: Oh.
Don't dissolve on me.
Bianca: No, I won't.
I won't.
Frankie: So,
we both got what we wanted, huh?
Bianca: Yeah.
What's the matter?
Frankie: I didn't get
you anything -- I mean,
like the locket.
Bianca: Frankie, come on.
You just gave me, like, the most
beautiful gift I've ever gotten
in my entire life.
Frankie: You are so amazing.
Bianca: You are.
I'm so lucky to have found you.
Oh, my God.
I don't want to leave!
Frankie: Well, then, stay.
Bianca: Oh, I have to go.
I promised my mom I'd run these
stupid errands for her.
Frankie: Well, then maybe
you should go because, I don't
know, our truce thing is still
really shaky, and I don't want
to mess up anything now.
Bianca: All right.
I'm going to see you later,
right?
Frankie: No, actually, I think I'm going to go find
some other fantastic girl.
Bianca: Stop it!
You better not!
Frankie: Like there could be
another.
Bianca: You look
in the mirror.
J.R.: Hey.
Don't you worry about me.
You guys go on.
Your little dance --
together, split, cut in,
regroup -- whatever it is that
keeps you guys going.
Dixie: Since when did you get
so cynical?
J.R.: I'm a realist, Mom.
Dixie: Well, realistically,
I -- I think you should be
prepared, ok?
Because this is going to be
in the paper.
J.R.: Oh, what?
You guys are big news now?
Dixie: Not us.
Leslie Coulson was in town.
J.R.: When?
What was she after?
Dixie: It's all right.
She was -- she's in
a maximum-security facility.
She's no threat to us.
J.R.: Mom, was Leslie after
you?
Dixie: In a way, she was.
And in a way, Leslie is
the reason that Tad and I are
splitting up.
J.R.: Mom, you lie.
Why can't you let go of that?
What does Tad have to do to make
you forget it?
Dixie: Listen, Leslie coming
back here was Tad's fault.
J.R.: No way.
Dixie: He knew where she was.
He didn't call the police.
J.R.: That doesn't make any
sense.
Dixie: He thought that
he could control her.
He thought that he could use
her to get back at David
Hayward.
J.R.: No, Tad wouldn't gamble
like that, not after everything Leslie did.
Dixie: He wanted revenge,
and he wanted to use Leslie
to get it. The rest wasn't important
to him.
What are -- J.R., Don't!
What are you doing?
[JR punches the wall]
J.R.: It's fine.
Dixie: No!
My God, you're bleeding!
Come on!
J.R.: I barely even hit it.
Jake: Don't ever say that.
I am not a better person than
you are.
Greenlee: Don't dare
lightning to strike us.
Look take me up on
my "good influence" lunch.
Jake: No. No, no.
I can't, really.
Actually, I've just eaten.
Greenlee: Then, we'll have
dinner.
I'll cook.
Wait till you see my new
kitchen.
Jake: Yeah, well, I saw it.
I saw it, you know, when I was
moving your stuff out,
so -- anyway, cooking is not
a necessity.
Greenlee: Coward!
Ok, I'll make what I make
best -- reservations
at the Valley Inn.
Jake: Well, thanks
for the offer, but actually
I got to get back to duty here.
Greenlee: Another time, then?
Jake: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
We'll see.
Greenlee: Jake, you can't
still be mad at me for crashing
Leo's rehearsal dinner.
Everything turned out the way it
was supposed to.
Jake: Do you really think that's true?
Greenlee: If I didn't think
everything turned out
for a reason, I'd go crazy.
Jake: You are the new
and improved Greenlee Smythe.
Greenlee: I don't know about that.
One thing's for sure --
no matter what happens,
we'll always feel the same way
about each other.
Leo: Greenlee, if you guys
are all finished, do you mind
if I take you away from here
for a little bit?
Greenlee: You and me?
Jake: No, no, go ahead.
Actually, I'm still on duty
here.
Dixie: Jake!
Jake, he -- he hurt his hand.
Jake: What happened?
Dixie: I --
I think he needs stitches.
Leo: Greenlee --
Jake: I'll look at it.
Dixie: Ok. Jake: All right.
Ok, well, let's get
you to radiology here, and we'll
get some pictures taken.
Chris: I was thoroughly
briefed on the subject of Erica
Kane before I hit Pine Valley.
Erica: How flattering.
Chris: I know all about you,
Erica -- your background,
your childhood.
I even know what happened when
you went to go visit your father
in California.
Erica: Well, you think I miss
my father?
I think you must have missed
some classes in Erica Kane 101.
Chris: Erica, you --
you worshipped your father.
Erica: Yes, I did, when I was
a little girl.
I thought the great Eric Kane
could walk on water.
And when he invited me to visit
him in Hollywood finally, I was
ecstatic.
Chris: While you were there,
you were --
you were taken advantage of.
Erica: Yeah, I was raped.
My famous director father was,
of course, too busy to --
to share my birthday with me.
And -- and so he asked one
of his actor friends to take
his place.
You know, stand in for him.
Well, you know the rest.
I blocked all this for a very,
very long time.
Did you know that?
Did they tell you that?
I don't miss my father.
I miss the dream of what
my father was supposed to be.
Chris: What would you do to,
uh, spare your daughter,
Bianca, that kind of pain,
that -- that disillusionment?
Erica: I would walk through
fire.
Chris: Same as your mother
would do for you.
Erica: Chris, I thought that
I had lost Bianca to anorexia.
And now this Frankie person.
Bianca will not be able
to survive a broken heart.
Chris: Well, maybe she'll
escape without one.
I mean, if this kid's nothing
but a con, she'll -- she'll
catch on.
Erica: She'll still have
broken heart.
Chris: Bianca's a smart kid.
She'll catch on.
And when she does, she'll give
this kid a swift kick
in the fanny right out of town.
Erica: Look, it's bad enough
that Bianca is in love
with Frankie.
But it seems that this Frankie
person has some genuine feelings for Bianca.
And believe me, that makes
her much more dangerous.
Greenlee: And you ran three red lights to get here?
Leo: They weren't red,
they were yellow.
Greenlee: Which is not
the "floor it" signal.
Leo: Greenlee, I just really
had to talk to you -- like, immediately.
Lee: At least --
at least in the car we had heat.
Greenlee: Why am I beginning to think this was planned?
Leo: Because it was.
Greenlee: So you lured me
to this boathouse for nefarious purposes?
Leo: Well, this place
definitely does have some
memories, doesn't it, Greenlee?
It's been the scene for some
major moments, that's for sure.
Greenlee: Will this be
another major moment?
Leo: Well, that's pretty much
up to you.
Dixie: So, is his hand
broken?
Jake: No. No, no.
Actually, he only bruised a few
bones.
Dixie: No stitches?
Jake: Not a one.
[Jake takes Dixie away from JR]
Jake: Now, should I ask what's going
on, or should I just mind my own
business
Dixie: Tad didn't tell you?
Jake: I don't know if I like
the sound of that.
Dixie: He probably thinks I'm going to change my mind.
Jake: Dixie?
[Dixie sighs]
Dixie: Tad and I are getting
divorced.
Jake: Dixie, no.
No, what are you talking about?
You -- you guys worked so hard
at piecing this relationship
back together.
You have a great life together.
Dixie: I know. I know.
That's what I thought.
Until Tad figured that he could
use Leslie Coulson to get back at David Hayward.
Jake: Wait a minute.
Wait -- you're blaming Tad
because Leslie Coulson tried
to kill him?
Dixie: Yes, that is exactly
what I'm doing.
He found out where she was,
and he did not call the proper
authorities.
He just tried to enlist
her in this plot to get back
at David.
Jake: You're not making
this up.
Dixie: Of course I'm not.
I wish I was.
He's been lying and obsessing
about this for months.
Jake: I don't know what
to say.
I just -- I'm sorry.
Dixie: Oh, don't -- don't say
that I should, you know,
listen to his point view or give
him another chance because,
really, I just can't.
Jake: I'm not going to.
As far as I'm concerned,
Tad deserves whatever you dish
out. Now you see it,
now you don't.
Now you see it --
[Laughter]
Woman: The humiliation.
It's cruel!
Second woman I know
imagine being Laura du Pres.
First woman: No, thank you.
Laura: Did I hear my name?
Nurse: I'll --
I'll be right there!
Second nurse: I have to --
Laura: Why were you talking
about me?
Nurse: Turn on your TV.
WRCW.
Laura: Please, God, tell me
I'm not on the news.
TV announcer: Welcome back
to "America's Most Embarrassing
Moments on Video." Just
wait till you get a look-see
at the odds-on favorite to win
this week's "Badge of Shame." .
TV announcer: The wedding
that turns into a baptism.
Can you believe that?
The Laura and Leo "do pray not
to drown" nuptials!
Leo: Greens, you look cold~
why don't you come over here?
Greenlee: Leo, it's cruel
to keep me in suspense.
Get to the major part.
Leo: You are definitely
unique, Greenlee.
You're impatient, you're
spontaneous, and you are
definitely resourceful.
Greenlee: Am I getting
an award? -
Leo: Yeah, and I got
the soggy tux to prove it.
Greenlee: Leo, I set off
the sprinkler system to get out
of the air duct, not to stop
your wedding.
Leo: Yeah, and that was
probably the most refreshing shower I've had since -- well, since
the mid 1980s at least.
Greenlee: I could have doused
you a long time ago if I'd known
it would do you any good.
Leo: Greenlee, please,
just let me have it.
I've been so mean to
you for so long, please -- it'll
at least make me feel a little
less guilty.
Greenlee: We've already been
through this, Leo.
We've both made mistakes.
Personally, I've perfected te art.
How is Laura?
You never said.
Leo: Surprisingly good.
She's actually coming around.
Greenlee: Really?
Leo: Yeah.
Greenlee: How so?
Leo: Well, I think she gets
it that she and I never had what
it took to make a marriage.
Greenlee: You're kidding.
Leo: No.
Greenlee: No more scheming,
mind games, court orders?
You're a free man?
Leo: I guess miracles do come
true.
you know, I first realized that
when I was at the altar in front
of Laura, and reverend baker
was --
Greenlee: And the heavens
opened up.
Leo: No, no, no.
This happened before the water.
You know, I was about to say
hen this fantastic image
just appeared and chased
the words right out of my mind.
Greenlee: Dare I ask?
Leo: She was a vision
with soft brown hair,
completely covering
her from head to toe.
The gorilla of my dreams.
What a knockout.
Greenlee: Comedian.
Leo: Seriously, Greenlee.
When I saw you as Ms. Kong,
I knew that I had to have that
in my life.
Greenlee: Me,
monkeying around?
Leo: Yeah.
Well, sort of.
Things are just more interesting
when you're around.
Greenlee: Most people just
find me irritating.
Leo: Yeah, well, it's a good
thing that I'm not most people.
I'm just a guy who's crazy
in love with the girl
in the gorilla suit.
Erica: No, don't you see?
She's a con.
I mean, "yes, I love Bianca,
too" should have just tripped
off her tongue.
But basically what she did is
ask what is in it for her.
And then she covered
with sarcasm and -- look, I know
that she has real feelings
for Bianca, but what I think is
that she doesn't know exactly
what to do with them yet.
Chris: What if Bianca is
right about this Frankie?
Then you're just putting
yourself through this living
hell for nothing.
Erica: Look, Frankie threw
herself in front of my car. That was premeditated,
not accidental.
Then she tried to score drugs
at S.O.S.
Frankie is not right
my daughter -- I mean,
by anyone's standards.
Chris: So she's made a few
wrong moves.
So have you, so have I.
So what?
Erica: So what?
The stakes are way too high,
so what.
I'm not going to let
my daughter's future depend
on some juvenile delinquent!
Chris: You survived,
and so will Bianca.
Erica: I mean, how did I let
it get this far?
Look, I wanted Opal to plant
drugs on Frankie so she could
busted and have her rear end
carted off to prison where it
belongs couldn't hurt --
[Bianca walks into the room]
Bianca: Really?
Who the hell do you think
you are, Mom?
[JR comes across Frankie smoking a joint]
J.R.: Busted.
Frankie: Not unless you're a narc
because by the time you call
the cops, I'll be out of here.
J.R.: Don't be so literal.
Offer a new friend a hit?
Jake: You know, watching
David Hayward suffer
for his sins -- you can sign
me up.
But putting your lives
on the line?
I so, how could Tad think that
anyone's going to wrangle Leslie
Coulson?
I don't know what he's thinking
messing up like this.
Dixie: Well, you know Tad.
He makes the impossible
possible.
Jake: Well, let me tell
you something.
With you threatening to leave
him -- if that doesn't slap him
back into reality, then there's
just no hope for him.
Dixie: I'm not doing it
to punish him.
I just can't go through this
again.
That's why I have to end it.
It's hell, though.
Jake: Tell me about it.
It doesn't make all the hurt
stop and go away when you know
you're right either, does it?
TV announcer: Bad enough the groom got cold feet.
The wedding was all wet.
TV announcer: Most brides get
their shower before
the wedding.
So, tune in to see the du Pres'
not-so-happy wedding again next
week when we try to find a video
even more embarrassing.
[Laura covers her ears]
[Laughter]
Leo: Did you hear what
I said?
Greenlee: You'd have said
"I do," except a gorilla got
in the way.
Leo: Oh, not just any
gorilla, Greenlee.
Greenlee: I want to hear it
again.
Leo: I, Leo du Pres,
love you, Greenlee Smythe.
Greenlee: Go on.
Leo: Go on?
Greenlee: Yeah.
When I imagined , there s
more to it.
Leo: Oh.
Uh -- I was an idiot for ever
thinking I could live my live
without you?
Greenlee: Yes!
That's almost exactly how
I heard it hundreds of times
when I couldn't sleep at night!
Leo: Yeah, well, I can't
promise to make up for lost time
or sleep, but I can promise
to make sense from here on.
Greenlee: Go for it.
Leo: Ok.
But I can't go it alone.
So, here.
Leo: Will you please marry
me, Greenlee?
ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Greenlee: You have no idea
how many times I'd wished you'd said those words.
Tad: If you have a problem
with me, I would really
appreciate it if you would try
to keep J.R. out of it.
