David: I invited
you into my bed, not
into my life.
Anna: Most of the time, I was
wondering, "am I making love
to Proteus"?
Laura: I need your signature.
Jake: Why don't you
and I just get out of Dodge?
Greenlee: I would follow
you to the very ends
of the earth.
Tad: I'm not going to let
Leslie Coulson hurt you ever
again.
TODAY'S - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
[Dixie hums - dressed as Snow White]
Dixie: Oh! Hello.
Tad: Too bad I don't have
a Prince Charming outfit, hmm?
Dixie: Well, you know, no one
would buy you in it, anyway.
Tad: Oh, hey!
Dixie: Except me!
Tad: Yeah?
Dixie: Come here, kiss Snowy.
At least you brought your sword.
Tad: Careful.
Dixie: All systems go
in the haunted house?
Tad: Definitely.
Basement's chock full of creepy crawleys and cobwebs.
And that was before I started
decorating for the party.
Dixie: Ooh!
Look at is place.
I think I outdid myself in here.
What do you think, huh?
It's nice.
Tad: You certainly did.
[Dixie laughs]
Jesse: You know, you people
are really getting on my nerves.
[Phone rings]
Jesse: Tell her to get that,
Tad.
Tad: Honey, would you please
get that for me?
Dixie: Ok.
Could you at least put the phone
back in the cradle?
For crying out loud.
Jesse: Psst!
Tad: Yeah, perfect.
You fit right in.
Ghetto the friendly ghost.
Jesse: You know, I don't have
time to outwit you tonight.
Tad: Why not?
Jesse: Because you need
to get on your cell phone,
call the hospital, see
if Hayward is on duty yet.
Tad: I did it five minutes
ago.
Jesse: Do it again, Tad.
We got to make sure he's there
so we can check out his cabin.
The man is up to something.
He's hiding something, man.
[Phone rings]
Jesse: Answer the phone,
damn it.
Tad: You're worthless.
Worthless.
Jesse: Shut up.
Tad: Hello?
[Leslie calls Tad - pretending to be her sister, Pam]
Woman: Tad, it's Pam Perotti.
Tad: Pam, thank God.
What's going on?
I mean, I'm a little worried.
I called you, like, three times
last night, and all I got was
a voice mail.
Pam: I know.
Tad, I had to take Leslie back
to the hospital.
Tad: Why?
What happened?
Pam: Well, she's had another
setback, Tad.
She --
I guess this contact
with you was too much for her.
She started talking about being
with you.
The doctors said the stay would
be indefinite.
Tad: Oh, Pam, I'm so sorry
to hear that.
Pam: It was a huge mistake
for me to let you talk to Leslie
again, to involve her
in your plans.
Tad: Well, Pam, that's not
necessarily --
Pam: Next time, stay out
of our lives.
Tad: Ah!
Jesse: What?
Tad: It's good news!
Leslie's right back
in the institutional fruit bowl
where she belongs.
Jesse: Good.
Ahem.
Good.
Leslie: Get ready, Tad.
Here comes the bride.
E.R. Resident: Dr. Hayward,
I had to field an emergency
for you.
David: Your point?
E.R. Resident: Well, you were
paged over an hour ago.
David: Look, you little
weasel, I took care of it.
The patient's stabilized.
Last thing I need from you is
lip from a first-year resident.
[David takes the resident's coffee]
Hmm.
Thanks.
Greenlee: You like when
I drive you to work, then?
Jake: Yeah, yeah, it's kind
of nice.
Greenlee: I have an ulterior
motive.
Jake: What else is new?
Greenlee: Get your paperwork
handled, close up shop, and then
meet me here so we can go
on our trip, like, yesterday.
I'll even be wifely and go home
and pack for you.
Jake: Now, Greenlee,
you couldn't be wifely
if you tried.
Greenlee: Humor me.
I'll meet you here in an hour.
By the way --
Jake: Huh?
Greenlee: Where are
you taking me?
Do I need a parka or a bikini?
And please note, the former is
not my idea of a good time.
Edmund: Oh, nurse, excuse me,
I hope you can help me.
Nurse: Yes?
Edmund: I'm looking
for a friend of mine.
I'm checking the local ER to
see if she was admitted.
She's been missing since last
night.
Nurse: I've been on duty
since last night.
What's your friend's name?
Edmund: Anna Devane.
Tad: Thank you very much.
Well, it's official.
Dr. Death is at the hospital.
Jesse: Cool.
Let's bounce, Baby.
[Dixie walks into the room]
Tad: Why?
Why are --
candy bars so much smaller than
when we were kids?
What?
Dixie: That was Liza.
Tad: And?
Dixie: And she's not stopping
by our costume party.
Tad: What happened?
Dixie: Well, she wouldn't
say.
It's definitely Adam-related.
But, really, do you know how
many no-shows we've got, Tad?
Tad: How many?
[Phone rings]
Dixie: Great.
That must be the Seven Dwarves
calling to say that they can't
make it.
Jesse: Ok.
We all finished with our little
chitchat here?
Because we've really got to get
out to the cabin, you know,
while he's still at work, Tad.
Come on, man.
Tad: Why?
Why have we got to do
anything?
You know, why don't you just zap
out there --
Jesse: Because I can't --
man, I don't know what's going
on, but it's like I'm losing
my juice.
It's like somebody turned off
my electricity or something,
man.
Tad: And this is my problem?
Jesse: I am not supposed
to be here, Tad.
But I am here because of you.
Tad: Oh, no, no, no, no.
You can't blame me for this
little earthly visitation, ok?
You knew the rules,
and I certainly didn't ask
to have you around.
Jesse: Oh, yes, you did.
Tad: No, I didn't.
Jesse: You did.
You asked for me, man.
Look at me now, man.
I'm running on fumes here.
I should be able to drop
in on Hayward or anybody else
for that matter and check out
what's going on, but,
no, not now.
I'm just as slow as all the rest
of you fools, man.
It's like I got to take public
transportation to get where
I need to go.
And yeah, I do blame you!
Tad: Probably just low blood
sugar.
Here.
Jesse: Don't vex me, boy.
Now, we need to nail Hayward
and we need to nail him fast
because I've got to get
out of here.
I got more important things
to do.
Tad: And heaven can't wait.
[Tad laughs]
Jesse: Have you lost that
simple little mind of yours?
What is wrong?
I thought you would be all over
this, man.
Tad: All over what?
Jesse: All over ending this
madness.
I mean, for one, I'll be out
of your hair, and Hayward would
be out of your life for good.
Bang! Zoom! Gone!
Dixie: Well, at least
your mother does what she says
she's going to do.
Opal: Well, at least I try
to.
Yikes, look at this place.
Tad: Hey, Mama.
You look great.
Opal: Hi, there, Honey.
Yeah, well, I'm not in costume.
Tad: Yo, Petey. What's up?
Petey: Where's Jamie?
Tad: Last I checked,
he's downstairs with some
friends, perfecting the ceiling
ooze.
Petey: Oh, cool.
Opal: Ceiling ooze?
You better go see what that's
about, huh?
Tad: Feel better?
More guests show up.
Dixie: Yeah, now that
I haven't been completely stood
up, I feel great.
Tad: Excellent because I've
got to run out.
Dixie: What?
Tad: I've just got to go
to the office.
There's a file there I've got
to look at tonight, so I'm just
going to go and --
Dixie: You have to go right
now?
Tad: Listen, you won't
even -- I'll be back before
you even miss me.
Dixie: Tad!
[Tad leaves]
[Opal *feels something when Jesse walks by]
Jesse: Whoa, who knew?
Old dingbat Opal -- she's truly
connected.
Go figure.
Come on, boy.
Opal: What in tarnation was
that?
Dixie: I don't know.
Tad's been a little distracted
lately.
I'm not sure why.
Opal: No, I mean --
I -- I felt a chill
just as Tad walked by me.
Whew.
I'm going down to the basement,
see if I can check out that
ooze.
Dixie: Ok.
[Dixie looks in the mirror and sings - - -]
Dixie: With a smile
and a song
[Leslie hums "Here Comes
The Bride"]
Greenlee: Hey, you two.
Well, what a coincidence.
Are you --
Jake: Laura, are you here
for a physical problem?
Greenlee: Oh, I doubt it's
physical, whatever it is.
Leo: Actually, she's got
to check up with David.
We're told that he is
in the ER?
Laura: Yes, I just want
to make sure that David thinks
I'm 100% for the rehearsal
dinner and the wedding,
not to mention the honeymoon.
Leo has a way of --
Greenlee: Jake is taking me
to this resort that is
so romantic I could die.
So the two of you are whooping
it up and singing the tarantella
and tossing your bouquet
to the local desperados,
Jake and I are going to be
lounging in the sun,
drinking tequila, eating
lobster, getting massages before
we -- well, you know.
Leo: Hmm.
So when are you leaving?
Greenlee: Tonight.
I'll be back for you in an hour,
lover.
[Phone rings]
Greenlee: Now, Laura,
you know better than to have
that phone on in the hospital.
[Laura walks outside]
Nurse: Dr. Smith wants
you to consult in cube six.
Jake: Ok.
Thanks, Judy.
No baiting.
Greenlee: Moi?
Jake: Toi.
Leo: So,
I hope you have a good time
at your fabulous resort with
Jake.
Greenlee: We will.
He's been awesome.
Leo: I want you to be happy,
Greenlee.
Greenlee: Oh, is this
the part where I reciprocate
and tell you to be happy
with your new bride?
Leo: I think that maybe
you should just back off and not
say anything at this point.
Greenlee: You like being
miserable?
Is that it?
Leo: I like peace.
Ok?
I like peace.
Jake: Ok, we can go.
Leo: Here he is.
Take care of her.
Jake: I plan to.
Jake: So, actually, I got taken off
rotation, and I'm not on call,
and I bagged all of
my nonessential paperwork,
so as of right now, I'm all
yours.
Greenlee: Thank you, Jake.
Let's go.
Jake: Ok.
Listen, I have to stop off
on our way out of town.
One quick stop and we're home
free.
Greenlee: Ok.
[Leo over hears Laura talking to someone on her cell phone]
Laura: Look, just do what
I paid you to do, ok?
Oh.
Leo: Hey.
Laura: Hi.
I didn't know you were coming
out.
Leo: Who was that?
Laura: Um, it was
the seamstress.
She keeps putting off
the pick-up time for my gown.
But I think she understands me
now.
Leo: I just spoke with David,
and he said that unless it's
an emergency, he can't see
you right now, but he can hook
you up with somebody else
if you need to.
Laura: No, that's fine.
I mean, the checkup was just
extra, extra precautionary.
Leo: Ok.
Laura: But maybe you should
see a doctor, Leo.
Leo: What do you mean?
Laura: You don't look good.
Leo: I'm fine.
Laura: You don't look fine.
And I assume it has to do
with seeing Greenlee and the way
she is with --
Leo: I'm fine.
Laura: Damn you, Greenlee.
Nurse: Mr. Grey,
admitting has no Anna Devane
listed.
Edmund: Thank you.
David: Edmund,
why are you looking for Anna
here in the hospital?
Edmund: Her daughter called
me, and she's been trying
to reach Anna since last night
and hasn't been able to find
her.
David: And you think she's
hurt?
Edmund: I just know how
to find people.
No one's seen her.
David: Well, have you checked
with the hotel?
Edmund: Yeah, I checked
the suite.
She never came home last night.
I don't know.
I'm just afraid she may be hurt
somewhere.
Nobody knows where.
[Car approaches]
[Car doors open and close]
Jesse: Ooh.
Tad: Ooh. Whoa.
I know this woman.
Anna?
Anna?
Honey, can you hear me?
It's Tad.
Tad: I can't find a pulse.
That can't be good.
I don't know what to do.
I'm not the doctor in
the family.
Don't just -- say something.
How is she?
Jesse: I'm trying.
I'm trying, man.
I'm not picking anything up.
I don't -- my juice -- I don't
know.
I don't understand what's going
on.
I should be able to --
Tad: God's sake.
What's the point of having
your own ghost?
Jesse: Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Tad: Anna?
Anna, can you hear me, Sweetie?
Yeah, hi.
Listen, my name is Tad Martin.
I'm about five miles east
of Church Road.
I need an ambulance quickly.
There's been a car accident.
A young woman's hurt.
Bad.
She looks bad.
[At SOS]
Leo: Simone, this looks
great.
Simone: Oh.
Leo: Looks like the party's
coming together.
Thank you.
Simone: Yeah, it is, it is.
Enjoy.
Laura: Leo, this is what
you asked them to do
for our rehearsal dinner?
Leo: It's that time
of the year.
Come on, if this was Christmas,
we could be Mr. And Mrs. Santa,
or you could be my little
helper.
Laura: Leo, ok, I just
thought we agreed on doing
something a little more elegant.
Leo: Laura, the wedding's
going to be like a Martha
Stewart daymare.
I just want -- you know, I just
want things to be a little bit
looser.
You know, like a real party.
Laura: You know, with plastic
black widows representing me?
Leo: Well, I guess you're not
going to like my costume very
well.
Laura: What is it?
Leo: Ok.
Striped suit, striped hat,
ankle shackle with a ball.
Get it?
Ball and chain?
Laugh, please.
Thank you.
Laura: I'm sorry.
I'm just being so overly
critical because I'm worried.
I'm worried about the wedding
and about everything.
Leo: You know, at least
Greenlee's not going to be here,
so we don't have to worry about
that.
Look, I'm sorry that I snapped
at you before.
I guess I'm a little bit
stressed out about this, too.
Laura: Ok.
Just never stop loving me.
You're keeping me alive.
Leo: I'm here for you, ok?
I love you.
Nothing to worry about.
[Laura gasps]
Laura: Susie?
Susie: Lala?
Girl, I didn't think I was going
to get here.
Laura: Well, who else would
I have put in my maid of honor
dress?
Oh, Susie, you look amazing.
Susie: Well, me?
Honey, look at you.
That new heart made you even
more beautiful.
[Susie whispers in Laura's ear]
Susie: And richer, I hope,
because you owe me 200 bucks,
like, right now, Sweetie.
Opal: All right,
now, Jamie, the guys are
guzzling this downstairs,
so when you take this to them,
will you please remind them that
drinking too much cider can give
you the colly-wobbles.
Jamie: I know, thanks.
Opal: All right.
Brooke: And she's right.
Jamie: Ok, Mom.
Brooke: You.
Dixie: So how's the wedding
going?
Brooke: Good, I think.
You know, there's been a lot
of planning, and Laura -- well,
you know, I think she's into it.
Opal: Is she feeling all
right?
Brooke: Yeah, she's been very
strong.
Um -- you know, I worry about
things that are little that
might become bigger problems,
I guess.
Opal: Well, like what?
[Jake walks in with Greenlee]
Brooke: Oh.
Jake: Hi, all.
Ms. White.
Dixie: You're late, Bucko.
You're supposed to be downstairs
watching the haunted house.
Your brother ditched me to go
back to the office.
Hi, Greenlee.
Greenlee: Hello, Dixie.
Jake: Actually, Dix,
the whole haunted house thing is
why I came by.
I'm going to have to bag.
Dixie: You, too?
Fabulous.
Opal: So what's going on?
It looks like you two are just
stopping by on your way
to someplace else, then.
Greenlee: Oh, we are.
We're getting out of town
for the rest of the week.
Brooke: Perfect.
So, Jake, what do I owe you?
[Anna is brought into the ER]
David: Talk to me.
Jesse: Hey, Tad, Tad, Tad.
Stay away from Hayward, ok?
I mean it.
Paramedic: Patient's got
lacerations and abrasions,
a possible concussion or a skull
fracture.
David: Has she regained
consciousness?
Paramedic: No, but her pulse
is steady and her BP is
130/84.
She's stable, but she's out
of it.
Edmund: Oh, my God. Anna?
David: All right, let's get
her out of here.
Come on. Go on.
Edmund: What happened?
Hey, what happened?
Tad: Listen, she was in some
kind of car accident, ok?
We were --
Edmund: What?
Tad: I was driving along,
and I saw the wreck,
and I pulled off the road,
and I found her on the ground.
Now, she is unconscious,
but the med tech said she's
stable.
Edmund: Where'd you find her?
Tad: About 15 miles away east
of Church -- near route 3,
before the covered bridge.
Edmund: What the hell was
she doing way out there?
Jesse: She was at Hayward's
cabin, Tad.
Tad: I'm not sure.
Listen, let me ask you
a question.
Does she know anybody out that
way?
Edmund: Uh, she doesn't know
anyone in town, really.
Jesse: She knows Hayward.
I was going to tell you that
when we got out there,
man, but she's been hanging
with him.
I saw her last night with him
at the cabin.
She must have wrecked the car
leaving that place.
Paramedic: She's coming to.
David: Anna?
Anna, it's me, David.
Can you hear me?
Anna?
Anna: Get away from me,
you bastard.
David: Anna, it's ok.
Anna: Get away from me.
You can't be the only doctor
here.
Hey, you, you --
ER Resident: I'm
a resident, Ma'am.
Dr. Hayward --
Anna: I don't want
Dr. Hayward.
Edmund: Anna? Anna?
Anna: Please, could you get
me another doctor?
David: Anna, just calm down,
ok?
Edmund: You heard her.
Just back off!
Jesse: Hey, Tad -- hey,
hey, stay out of this.
Tad: What do you mean stay
out of it?
Look, it's perfectly obvious
that something happened at that
cabin, all right, before
the accident, with Hayward.
Jesse: What do you think I've
been telling you?
Tad: I don't know what you've
been telling me.
Just cut me some slack,
all right?
I'm going to nail this guy
so bad I can taste it.
Edmund: Anna?
Anna, listen to me.
Do you remember the car
accident?
What happened?
Anna: No, no, not --
David: Edmund, get out
of the way so I can examine
the patient.
Edmund: Hayward,
on my mother's grave, so help
me, if you don't back the hell
off --
Anna: It wasn't an accident.
Proteus.
Greenlee: What do you mean?
What do you owe Jake?
Brooke: Well, clearly,
Jake is getting you out of town
so that you won't be around
to ruin my daughter's wedding.
So I thought I would thank him
for his thoughtfulness.
Jake: Brooke, why don't
you leave Greenlee alone, ok?
She's not going to be anywhere
near Laura or Leo on
their wedding way.
Brooke: I have to go.
Dixie: Ok.
Brooke: I need to put
the next issue of "Tempo"
to bed, so I'll see
you at the rehearsal dinner?
Dixie: Sure. Why not?
Brooke: Ok.
Good luck.
Opal: Well, you sure know how
to give one heck of a wingding.
Jake: Well, that was
pleasant.
But that's not the actual reason
I came by.
Dixie: No, you came to ditch
my party.
Jake: Well, yeah,
unfortunately, but also
for the family to start to get
to know Greenlee a little
better.
Greenlee: That's why we're
here?
Jake: Yeah, yeah.
So I'll tell you what, I'm going
to go out and check
on the haunted house like
I promised Jamie, leave
you ladies a little time to get
to know one another.
Behave.
Dixie: So, Greenlee,
you're dating Jake, huh?
Opal: And planning trips
together.
Greenlee: I -- yeah, yeah.
Greenlee: I thought he wanted
to come by to say good-bye
to Tad or something.
I didn't know he was going
to spring me on all of you.
Dixie: Oh, we're not sprung.
Candy corn?
Greenlee: Thanks,
thanks, thanks.
So, are a lot of people coming?
Dixie: Well, most of Jamie's
class, actually.
I mean, he and Tad planned this
whole thing.
Greenlee: Uh-huh.
That's a nice dress.
Dixie: I'm Snow White.
Greenlee: I should hope so.
That was a joke.
Dixie: Oh.
Ha-ha.
Greenlee: You know what?
I'm needing some fresh air.
Could you tell Jake I'll meet
him out on the porch?
Dixie: Ok.
Greenlee: Jake, I'm going
to kill you.
[Greenlee gasps]
Susie: You are still so sweet.
Sweeter than even Laura said
you were.
Leo: Thank you.
I'm going to go help unload some
party supplies, so --
Susie: You know, sweet is
written all over your face.
Leo: Thank you.
[Leo leaves]
Susie: Uh-huh.
Are you paying me, or what?
Laura: Hey, I thought we were
going to have a rehearsal first.
Susie: Honey, look, I told
you -- I had to take the bus
from New York.
I couldn't afford to take
the train.
The bus takes longer, so --
Laura: Listen, you told me
when we met in New York you were
an actress.
This is what I'm getting here?
Susie: I am, and you are, ok?
I am an actress, and this is
what you're getting.
Laura: All right.
Well, then, I need you to play
the part.
I need you to play it
believably, ok?
Because if you mess it up,
I can't afford that.
Do you understand?
Susie: What is this anyway?
Used to have all kinds
of trouble back in the day,
and here you are marrying this
terrific guy, and you need
to make up and pay for a maid
of honor?
Laura: No, no, no, Susan.
You promised. No questions.
Susan: Yeah, Honey,
and you promised 200 a day,
and I don't have any of that,
yet.
Laura: All right.
I'll get to the ATM, ok?
Susan: Well, you'd better,
Lala, or I'm out of here.
Laura: Look, you know
the whole story, right,
about the friendship?
I mean, I need you to feed that
to Leo or anybody else who asks.
Susan: Look, I know my lines,
ok?
I'm an actress.
[Leo returns]
Susie: Leo, I was just saying --
I mean, would you just look
at how happy she is.
You have made her so very happy.
Leo: Yeah, we're happy
together.
Could we get some drinks?
Hell, it's a celebration, right?
Susan: Now, that is what I'm
talking about!
Leo: All right.
I'm going to get some drinks.
Susan: Ah, scotch,
neat, thank you.
Leo: Yes.
Susan: I like the way that
man leaves.
Don't you, Lala?
Laura: You go near him
and you're dead.
Greenlee: Are you trying
to give me heart failure?
Jake: Well, what?
Fortunately, I'm a doctor.
I could save you in a pinch.
Greenlee: Well, pinch me now
and tell me this little family
intro you just pulled on me is
a joke.
Jake: What? What?
Didn't go well?
Greenlee: I'll tell
you in the car.
Come on.
Opal: All right, I'm going
to wrestle him up.
We'll head out the back door,
ok?
Dixie: Ok.
Opal: All right.
I'll talk to you tomorrow?
Dixie: Yeah.
Opal: Ok.
Dixie: Good night.
Opal: Nighty night, Honey.
Happy Halloween.
[Knock on door]
Dixie: Finally, somebody who
wants to come to a party.
Hello?
Hi.
Hi.
Where are your kids?
Hello?
Who are you?
Oh, my God.
No.
No, no.
[Dixie gets hysterical when she realizes it is Leslie at the door in a wedding gown. Dixie slams the door]
Tad: Yeah, hello?
Dixie: Tad?
Tad, she here!
Tad: Who is?
What's happening?
Dixie: Just -- hurry!
Hurry, ok?
[Dixie dials 911]
Dixie: Hello?
I think somebody's trying
to break into my house.
Oh! Oh!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!
Susan: Ok, now.
I don't want your man,
Sweetheart.
I want your money.
Laura: You'll get it.
Just tone it down.
There's my perfect husband.
Isn't he just perfect, Susie?
Susan: He is out of this
world.
Leo: I am perfect.
Susan: Indeed.
Leo: All right.
Let's see, to our maid of honor.
Susan: Oh, wow.
Leo: Ok?
Susan: Wow.
I just want to say -- I mean,
I would have -- I would have
crossed a river barefoot to be
here for Lala.
She saved me, you know.
I was in a really bad way,
Leo, but your girl here,
she saved me.
Leo: How so?
Susan: Well, I had no money
and no place to live.
And I was ready to do anything,
I mean anything to get by.
But Lala here,
she stepped in and she took
over.
She spent days with me.
She helped me get public
assistance and found me a clean,
safe place to live.
She saved me.
Laura: Well, you were worth
saving, Susan.
Susan: Wow.
I mean, no one's ever said
anything like that to me before.
Gosh, I mean, I can't believe
I'm doing this.
I'm getting all emotional.
This is your night, and I'm just
so very happy to be here
and proud to stand up
for you at your wedding
tomorrow.
I got to say,
Leo, she's my hero.
Laura: I'm just so lucky,
all around.
Oh, Leo, the caterers.
Leo: Oh -- the check.
Laura: Oh, you know what?
I'll go -- I'll go drop it off.
Leo: I can do it.
Laura: No, no, you stay here.
You should get acquainted
with Susan.
I will be quick.
Leo: All right.
Laura: Be good.
Susan: Aren't I always?
Laura: You take care
of my best friend, Leo.
[Laura says to herself]
Laura: I'll take care of yours.
Edmund: Anna doesn't want
you near her.
Anna: Please --
David: That was an initial
reaction, Edmund.
I need to see the extent
of her injuries.
Edmund: Find another doctor.
David: I am the doctor
on call here, Edmund.
Jake: Not anymore.
[Jake walks into the hospital room]
David: What are you doing?
Jake: I got paged.
David: Jake, don't interfere.
Jake: How you doing?
Anna: I'm better now, thanks.
[Pager beeps]
[David rushes out of the room]
Jake: That's you.
Edmund: Jake, come talk to me
when you're through here.
Jake: Sure.
Brooke: Hi, I got here
as soon as I got your message.
You said Anna was in
an accident?
Edmund: She's fine now.
She's ok.
She's --
there's something else.
It wasn't an accident.
Brooke: What?
Edmund: Yeah.
And she said something.
She said "Proteus."
Brooke: What does that mean?
Edmund: I don't know.
Brooke: Well, that Proteus is
after Anna?
Edmund: Why?
I mean, maybe she's working
undercover, trying to bust up
the drug ring.
I mean, what do you think?
Brooke: I don't know.
I mean, you know her better than
I do.
Ahem.
Did she say anything else?
Edmund: No, but she didn't
want Hayward to touch her.
I mean, he was the doctor
on call, and she was in pain,
but she didn't want him anywhere
near her.
Brooke: You still think that
Hayward is Proteus?
Edmund: I don't know.
All I know is what I saw.
He got paged, and he tore out
of this hospital.
Brooke: Yeah, well,
was the page from the hospital?
Edmund: Well, if it was,
then -- then why would he leave?
Jake: All right.
There you go.
Everything looks good.
Hey.
You're ok, really.
Anna: I know.
Jake: Then why do you seem
frightened, beyond even wha t
happened out on that road?
Anna: Is he still here?
Jake: David?
I don't think so.
Why?
Anna, why are you afraid
of David Hayward?
Susan: Hmm.
Tell me what you love about her.
Well, I'm guessing that you love
her a lot.
Leo: I do.
I mean, it's --
it's in the quiet times
when I don't --
sometimes when she first wakes
up in the morning, I look
at her and I just say,
"Greenlee, how did I get so --"
Susan: Greenlee?
Now, who is Greenlee?
Leo: Uh, nobody.
It slipped.
Susan: Uh-huh, in a Freudian
kind of way?
Well, come on, Leo.
Tell me about this Greenlee.
Well, Honey, tell me, or I'm
just going to have to ask Laura.
[Laura slips a forged note to Greenlee under the door to Jake's office]
[Greenlee sighs]
Greenlee: "Greenlee,
I have to see you.
I need to see you.
Come to S.O.S.
Leo."
Edmund: Jake, Jake, how is
she?
Jake: No skull fractures,
but she does have a mild
concussion.
She's in and out of it right
now, but I think she's going
to be fine.
Edmund: Ok, that's a relief.
Jake: This time.
Edmund: What do you mean
Jake: Well, the police say
that she's evidently run off
the road.
Now, either she fell asleep
at the wheel or her prior neuro
condition has come forward
again, and I want to find out.
Edmund: That makes sense.
Thanks.
Jake: So, I'm going to go run
some tests, see if I can find
some answers.
Edmund: Right.
Brooke: Thank you, Jake.
Brooke: I bet that Anna fell asleep
at the wheel and that's it.
Edmund: Or she was pushed
off.
Brooke: You don't think --
Edmund: I don't know what
to think.
I think she was left to die,
though.
Brooke: You don't know that.
Edmund: Not yet, but I will.
And I'll tell you one thing --
if it was Hayward, I'm going
to nail that son of a bitch.
Tad: Dixie? Honey?
Dixie: Tad.
Tad: Baby, what is it?
Dixie: Oh.
Tad: What happened?
What is it?
Dixie: She was here.
Tad: Who? Who was --
Dixie: That woman!
She was out on the porch!
Tad: Who?
Dixie: Leslie!
Tad: Sweetheart,
that's impossible.
Leslie's in an institution
for the criminally insane.
She couldn't have been --
Dixie: No, no, she was out
there.
She was wearing a bridal gown
and she had a big veil on.
And then I shut the door
and I locked it, but then
she tried to get in and then
there was this big thud..
Tad: What kind of thud?
Dixie: I don't know what it
was.
I couldn't go out there
because I was scared.
I called the police.
[Tad opens the front door and finds a smashed pumpkin with a knife in it]
Tad: Oh.
Wow.
Dixie: See what I'm saying?
It's that woman.
Who else could have done that?
Tad: Honey, this is just
a ridiculous prank.
It was a kid, you know,
one of JR's friends
or something.
Dixie: No, it's that woman.
It's not some teenager.
Tad: Sure, teenagers do this
kind of thing all the time.
Dixie: You think I'm insane.
Tad: No, no, not at all.
I just think you're spooked,
that's all.
Jesse: Uh-uh, uh-uh.
I'd have thought the same thing,
man.
And Dixie don't know half
the trouble you stirred up
talking to that crazy broad
again -- all to get back
at Hayward.
Tad: Listen, we have to get
dressed for that rehearsal
thing, don't we?
Dixie: Yeah.
Tad: Ok, well, I'll tell
you what.
I'll collect Jamie.
You just go upstairs,
relax, change your clothes,
but do me a favor -- before
you do anything, call the police
and cancel the 911.
Dixie: You're not mad at me,
are you?
Tad: Oh, not at all.
I'm just sorry that you're
scared.
Dixie: Just -- I just --
I don't know.
I just can't feel safe with that
woman around, you know?
Tad: Don't you ever shut up?
Tell me one thing, all right?
Was it Leslie?
Jesse: Tad, I'm telling you,
I'm so tapped out, man, I can't
even see that.
She could be upstairs
in your tub right now taking
a shower, I wouldn't know.
And it's all because you kept me
down here too long, stupid.
Tad: All right, stop whining.
I'll get you back to cloud nine.
Just don't torment me.
Jesse: Me torment you?
Oh, the arrogance.
Tad: Yeah, you tor ment me.
Forget it.
I got to go up, get changed
for a party.
You coming?
Jesse: Am I -- no.
Get out of my face, man.
Just go.
Do what you got to do.
I need you, I know where to find
you.
I'm out.
I'm out of here.
Tad: This attitude -- just
walking through to make myself
a sandwich.
Jesse: Out.
[Jesse tries to disappear but can't]
Jesse: Wait a minute.
Come on now, Jesse.
Out.
Ow -- oh.
Oh, my God.
This -- oh.
ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Chris: I kind of got my hands
full right now.
Erica: I've just found out
something that could save
my daughter's life.
Leslie: Oh, maybe I should go
back on those meds.
Jake: You go through
with this, I'm out of your life.
Ryan: Go, get out of town.
Leave the wife you don't love.
