Tad: You know, Ilsa,
I must say, I was very
pleasantly surprised that
you agreed to fly over.
Ilsa: Well, I'm a little bit
curious as to why Chandler
Enterprises is so anxious
to acquire my little music
company.
Tad: We're very interested
in expanding our holdings
in media.
Ilsa: Reykjavik is a little
north of the beaten path.
Tad: Maybe, but Scandinavian
pop is very in in this country.
Probably now Iceland may be
the next hotbed of hits.
So, what do you say
you and I talk about some
details, ok?
[Door opens]
Ryan: Tad, I'm glad you're
here.
Tad: I'm in the middle
of a meeting.
What the hell are you doing?
Ryan: I'm about to make
you more money than you ever
thought possible.
Jake: Finally.
I can almost taste them.
Gillian: What are you talking
about, Jake?
Jake: Cottage fries.
You know, when I was
in Chechnya, I would wake up
in the middle of the night,
and all I could think about was
the cottage fries right here
at the Valley Inn.
That's what I'm going to have
for lunch -- a big plate
of cottage fries.
Come on.
Oh, sir?
Can you check this in for me?
Waiter: Sure.
Jake: Thank you very much.
Oh, and tell that chef to heat
up the fryer.
Let's have a seat.
Gillian: Well, you're
in a very good mood, Jake.
Jake: Well, I'm at the Valley
Inn with my most favorite
person, my lovely wife.
Cottage fries on the menu.
By golly, life is good.
Gillian: And it's
because of something besides me
and those potatoes.
You've been floating ever since
you spoke to your dad
at the hospital.
Was it good news?
Jake: Um --
Gillian: Can you share it
with me?
David: Excellent.
Here you go.
David: Perfect.
David: Thanks a lot.
Myrtle: No, thanks.
Just tea, thank you.
Erica: Oh, Myrtle --
myrtle: Oh, Sweetheart --
Erica: I'm so glad that
you could meet me.
Myrtle: Darling, you sounded
so rattled.
Erica: Oh, I am.
Myrtle: Sit down.
Tell me what's bothering you.
Erica: I blew it, Myrtle.
I blew it with Bianca.
I wanted so badly to be
supportive, you know,
especially now that her father
is gone.
I just wanted her to feel safe
and loved.
Myrtle: I'm sure she knows
you love her.
Erica: No, I did something
really stupid, and now
she doesn't want to have
anything to do with me.
Myrtle: Come on, now.
Things can't be that bad.
Erica: Oh, they can
and they are.
She's moved out.
Myrtle: She's what?
Erica: She hates me.
Jack: So, what are
your feelings on the great
American institution of jazz
music?
Ah, well, that's the right
answer because I happen to know
a sweet little spot
in center city, the best jazz
around.
Have a little bite to eat,
and we'll head there and catch
a couple sets.
What do you think?
[Doorbell rings]
Jack: Ex--
oh, listen, I need to go.
I'll pick you up around 7:00,
All right?
Perfect.
All right, see you later, then.
Bye-bye.
[Ring]
Jack: Coming.
Jack: Bianca.
Bianca: Hi, Uncle Jack.
Jack: Hi back.
Are you all right?
Get in here.
Come here, come here.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What's going on, Kiddo?
Bianca: Do you remember how
you told me that I could count
on you no matter what?
Jack: Absolutely.
Bianca: Did you mean it?
Jack: Absolutely.
What's going on here?
Bianca: I want to move
in with you.
Leo: You keep bringing me
in here on the flimsiest
of charges, Lieutenant.
Derek: Nothing flimsy about
receiving stolen property, Leo.
And this time I have enough
evidence to make the charges
stick.
Leo: Yeah, well, don't count
on it.
Why don't we just forget about
the cell?
I'm going to be out of here
faster than you can say "Johnnie
Cochran."
Derek: Go ahead.
Think we'll lock you up anyway
nonetheless, just as
a precaution.
Leo: Have it your way,
have it your way.
But you know what?
Since we're becoming such old
friends, Lieutenant, I was
wondering if maybe you could do
me a little favor.
Derek: What's that, Leo?
Leo: Could we keep this
little misunderstanding out
of the newspapers, maybe?
Derek: It's a little late
to be thinking about your public
image, Leo.
Leo: You think?
No, seriously, seriously.
You know, if this gets splashed
around the news, Greenlee's
going to get in more hot water
with her grandfather than
she already is.
Derek: You know,
you should've thought about that
before you went on an illegal
spending spree with that man's
money.
I hear you're quite a tipper.
Leo: They were all hundred-dollar bills.
What was I supposed to do?
Leo: Why am I such an idiot?
Jake: Thank you.
Well, it's a little too soon
to know if it will help.
Gillian: Medical news?
Please tell me, Jake.
Jake: Ok, ok, ok.
I have been working
on an experimental drug that may
be able to counteract the injury
that I got in Chechnya.
Gillian: Oh, Jake!
Jake: Don't get too excited.
But the preliminary results have
been remarkable.
Gillian: Oh, that is
wonderful, Jake.
Jake: Yeah, well,
they're still conducting trials,
but it looks very promising.
They just sent the research over
to me from Sweden, and it's
in my briefcase right now.
Gillian: Oh.
Well, I know you're going
to make a full recovery.
You know, not that it's all that
important, but --
Jake: Listen --
I'm not a fool.
I know the reason you came back
to me, at least initially.
And I just want you to know that
this last 24 hours we've been
able to spend together have been
nice.
I mean, we're not talking about
my injury.
We're not talking about mistakes
we made in the past or trying
to figure out what we're going
to do to
but just a chance for
you and I to get together
and hang out, get to know each
other again.
It's wonderful.
Gillian: Yeah.
For me, too.
Jake: Well, here.
How about a toast?
Here's to the special moment
we've been given, right here,
right now.
Erica: Then she just packed
up her things and stormed out
of the house.
Myrtle: Because you read
her diary?
Erica: Myrtle, she's been
so tight-lipped and so withdrawn
with me about all of this that
I was desperate.
I was desperate to find out what
is upsetting my girl.
Myrtle: Look, look,
don't tell me -- don't tell me
anything because that really
would be violating her privacy.
Erica: Oh, no, of course not.
I mean, I couldn't if I wanted
to because she has ripped out
half the pages in her journal.
There's nothing left at all
of what happened to
her at the treatment center.
And poor Bianca --
whatever it is, it's really
terrible.
Myrtle: What could be
terrible?
I mean, what could she have
in those -- in those pages that
you've lost?
Jack: Well, Honey, the simple
answer is yes, of course,
you're always welcome to stay
here with me.
Bianca: Thank God.
Uncle Jack, I honestly didn't
know where I was going to go
if you said no.
Jack: But, having said that,
now I'm going to spend the next
half an hour trying to convince
you to change your mind.
I want you to work this thing
out with your Mom, Honey.
Bianca: Uncle Jack,
don't bother.
You have no idea how hard I have
tried to work this thing out.
It's no use!
Jack: Let me just say
my little say here, ok?
Bianca: No, no. No.
I know what you're going to say.
Jack: Oh.
Bianca: I do, Uncle Jack.
You're going to say she loves me
more than anything and she only
has my best interests at heart,
yadda, yadda, yadda.
Jack: Gosh, I didn't realize
you consider me the "yadda,
yadda, yadda" type.
Bianca: I don't.
I don't.
I'm sorry. I --
Jack: It's ok.
Bianca: I just --
let's face it, Uncle Jack.
When it comes to my mother,
I have heard it all a thousand
times, and you are not the one
that has to live with her.
Jack: Yeah, well, you are not
the one that has to live
with her, either, now.
But she's always going to be
your mother, kiddo, and that's
a connection that -- that runs
deep, you know?
Deeper than anything else.
As deep as the connection
you have with your father.
Bianca: Uncle Jack,
don't bring Daddy into this.
Jack: Your father's already
into this.
Sit down here a minute.
Distance can't dissolve
a family.
Death can't even do that.
And your father -- your father
was the one that connected all
of us -- you, me, Erica.
Bianca: Are you saying
that -- that my mom cared about
my father as much as I did?
Jack: No, no. I'm not saying that at all.
And she didn't mean as much
to his life as you do.
But there was a time,
Honey, when your mother
and father, they loved each
other very, very much.
And right now, your mother is
grieving his loss same
as we are.
Bianca: I really just don't
think that my Mom and I feel
anything the same on this issue,
Uncle Jack.
Jack: And you're probably
right.
Everybody's grief is different.
But you do admit it's a rough
time for all of us, right?
So don't you think maybe it
would be a good idea if we just
cut each other as much slack
as possible?
Leo: Most people are trying
to break out of jail.
Why are you breaking in?
Greenlee: Security's not very
tight today.
They only have one hopelessly
insignificant prisoner.
Leo: Ouch.
Do you talk the animals
at the zoo like this?
Greenlee: The zoo depresses
me.
So does this dump.
Leo: Greenlee, I appreciate
your visit, but it's really
unnecessary.
I'm going to be out of here
before they finish typing up
the report.
Greenlee: Don't tell me --
you stashed away enough
of my grandfather's money
to make bail.
Leo: No.
But I like the way you think.
Greenlee: You wouldn't like
what I'm thinking at this very
moment.
Leo: Hey, come on, Greenlee.
Quit being so -- Greenlee.
Greenlee: You enjoy
tormenting me like this.
Leo: Hey, excuse me, but I'm
the one without phone
privileges.
You get to leave here.
Greenlee: That's right.
You're behind bars again,
and I'm going to have to get
you out.
Leo: No. No, no, no.
No, no.
Mumsy will handle that.
Greenlee: Hmm.
Great.
Then I'll just go home and wait
for my grandfather to go crazy.
Because once he finds out that
you stole the ransom money
and I helped you spend it
on a Caribbean gambling spree,
I'm going to be on the next
plane back to San Diego.
I am so busted.
Leo: But it was heaven while
it lasted, right?
Greenlee: Oh, shut up, Leo!
Leo: Come on, Greenlee,
you're going to be fine.
While I'm in here battling head
lice, you just go throw yourself
on your grandfather's mercy.
You know what?
Tell him it was my fault.
Blame me.
I don't care.
You know what?
Tell him that you didn't know
that it was his money that I was
spending.
Greenlee: But I didn't.
I thought it was your mother's.
Leo: Which makes it such
a great alibi.
Greenlee: And then what
happens to you?
Leo: I show an act
of contrition.
I'll be at the Valley Inn bar
by happy hour.
Greenlee: Wake up and smell
the handcuffs, Leo.
I heard Lt. Frye talking
to the DA when I came in here.
Both of them are pretty
embarrassed by the way
you skated on those murder
charges with Paolo, and they're
both looking for payback.
The DA said he'll prosecute it
himself.
And he's pretty positive that
he can get five years in prison.
You faker.
You're acting all smug
and unconcerned, and you're
scared to death, aren't you?
Leo: Me scared?
That'd be out of character,
Greenlee.
Greenlee: Mm-hmm.
Then why did you turn all white
when I mentioned five years
in prison?
Leo: It's the fluorescent
light bulbs in here.
It washes me out.
Greenlee: It is pretty cruel
and unusual.
I'm developing a rash just
looking at that cot.
And promise me, no matter what
happens, you won't use that
gross excuse for a toilet?
Leo: I'll make a mental note
of that, all right?
Got it.
Greenlee: We have to get
you out of here.
From the penthouse to
the dungeon.
Leo: You know, for two
uncommonly intelligent people,
we sure do trip ourselves up
a lot.
Greenlee: Speak for yourself.
Leo: Yeah, I guess it was
pretty dumb to not figure out
that that ransom money might
have been marked, huh?
Greenlee: Neither of us have
strong impulse control.
Leo: It's an overrated
quality.
Greenlee: Yeah, what's wrong
with a little excitement
and adventure?
Leo: Exactly.
I mean, why do people have to be
so uptight?
Why can't they come around
to our way of thinking?
Greenlee: That might take
a while.
Leo: Yeah, well, I got plenty
of time.
Like five years.
Greenlee: It's not going
to happen.
I won't let it.
Leo: I feel safer already.
Greenlee: Leo, if you go
to a big, nasty prison,
there's going to be a big sheet
of Plexiglas between us every
time I come visit you.
I won't be able to kiss you
or touch you
or whisper what I have planned
for you.
Derek: You two are
unbelievable!
Greenlee --
Greenlee, how in the hell did
you --
never mind.
I don't even want to know.
I don't want to know.
You get out of here.
We have a date with the judge.
Let's go.
Tad: Ilsa, you'll have
to forgive the interruption.
Obviously there's some people
who just can't take
no for an answer.
Ilsa: I can see that.
Tad: Tell me, what's
your time schedule?
Could we do this a little later?
Ilsa: I'll be at the Valley
Inn waiting to hear from you.
Tad: Ok.
I will call as soon as I can.
And again, please, please
forgive the interruption.
Tad: You're such a moron.
What the hell's going on?
Ryan: I had to see you, Tad.
Tad: Well, you ever heard
of an appointment?
You can't just go kicking
in my door anytime you feel like
it.
Ryan: I've got
one word for you --
IPO.
I have been getting ready
to take incredibledreams.com
public.
I have the contracts being drawn
up by Leslie Coulson.
I hired a big PR company.
We already shot our first
commercial.
Tad: Why do you need me?
Ryan: You see, that's
the good part.
I don't.
Not at all.
I'm here as a courtesy call.
You and Liza believed in me,
you helped finance the company
from the beginning, and I wanted
to give you the chance to reap
the profits.
And for that, Tad, you are going
to need both hands.
Yes, you are.
I brought some ideas that
you and I could work on to help
make this the most lucrative
public offering wall street has
seen this year.
Tad: My, you have been busy.
Ryan: Yes, I have.
This boat is ready to sail, Tad.
Everybody onboard is going
to make a mountain of money.
So what do you say?
You in?
Tad: One question.
Ryan: Yeah. Go ahead.
Tad: What the hell happened
to you?
Myrtle: Oh, thank you.
Erica: Thank you.
Myrtle: Has Bianca told
you anything about this?
Erica: No.
Nothing at all.
That's what drove me to read
her journal . I felt lost.
Myrtle: I'll bet she's feeling exactly
the way you're feeling right
now.
Erica: Now you've lost me,
Myrtle.
Myrtle: Look, if this was
her first romance and it ended
bitterly, she probably thinks
she can't do anything right --
I mean in the romance
department.
Erica: And how does this
relate to me?
Myrtle: Look, Darling.
She is now your responsibility,
and everything you've done
and planned has not quite worked
out yet.
And it must be very,
very frustrating.
Erica: All I want is
for her to be happy.
Myrtle: Oh, darling,
in my experience, teenagers are
seldom happy no matter how
they act.
No.
At this moment she is missing
Travis.
But she needs you now more than
she ever did.
Erica: You think so?
I don't even know where she is.
Myrtle: Well, she can't have
you go and find her,
tell her how you feel, and ask
her to come home.
Erica: I will.
I will, Myrtle.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Myrtle: Well, I'd better get
to the shop.
Erica: Oh, ok.
Myrtle: Listen --
don't lose heart.
I know you're going to do this
just fine.
Take care of yourself.
Erica: Ok, thank you.
Myrtle: Bye-bye.
Erica: Bye.
Jake: Mmm.
Gillian: Jake, there is
nothing wrong with your
appetite.
You ate these potatoes like
a bear.
Jake: They're good,
they're good.
You know what?
I got a little out of control.
Um -- I have an idea.
Why don't you let me make it up
to you over dinner?
We can shoot up to New York,
have a romantic supper.
And I promise, there'll be
no ketchup.
Gillian: You want to fly
to New York?
Jake: Well, why not?
I have a brother who has
a corporate jet.
Maybe we can borrow it.
We can have dinner on top
of the World Trade Center.
Gillian: That is
so extravagant.
Jake: Well, it's -- I mean,
the views are absolutely
incredible.
You can see for miles and miles.
We can watch the setting sun
and watch the city lights come
up.
Gillian: You're really
serious about this, aren't you?
Jake: I'm serious about
everything I do with you.
So what do you say?
Tell you what.
I'll grab my coat and briefcase,
and we'll go.
David: Never mind how I heard
about Cystolotride.
What can you tell me about it?
Oh, come on, Phil.
They're testing the drug
in your lab as we speak.
Don't give me that.
You guys in sales know
everything that's going
on in that building.
Well, then, find out.
Jack: Here you go, Kiddo.
You know, it's no big mystery.
I mean, your mother cares about
you, so naturally she wants
to know what happened
to you when you were in rehab.
Bianca: So that gives
her the right to read
my journal?
Jack: No, of course not,
of course not.
I'm not saying that.
It's just that I would hope it
would make it a little bit
easier for you to forgive her,
knowing that she loves
you unconditionally.
Bianca: Please, Uncle Jack.
The only reason that Mom has
her attention focused on me is
because she's between
boyfriends.
Jack: What was that again?
Bianca: Yeah.
I mean, I'm a distraction
so she can sit around and wait
until she starts her next big
love affair.
Jack: You are absolutely
wrong about this.
Now, you listen to me.
You are your mother's number
one priority.
You always have been, you always
will be, whether there's a man
in her life or not.
Hey -- she worries about you.
Bianca: I wish she wouldn't.
Jack: I'll tell you something
else.
I worry about you, too.
Bianca: I'm fine.
Jack: No.
I don't think you are.
And when somebody that you love
is obviously hurting and isn't
able to talk about it -- well,
you know, that concerns you.
Bianca: I am talking about
it.
I don't like it when people
invade my privacy.
Jack: Hey, nobody likes
to have their privacy invaded.
I understand the way you feel
about this.
I do, believe me.
I'm on your side.
But I got to tell you,
there's something that you
have to understand, and that is
you are only one year out
of treatment.
Do you know how scared
your mother was when you were
going through your eating
disorder?
Bianca: She wasn't scared.
She was disappointed.
Jack: What?
Bianca: I could see how
ashamed she was of me every time
she looked at me.
Jack: Ashamed?
No, no.
What she was was terrified
because her daughter,
who she dearly loves,
was hurting herself and she was
powerless to help you.
Bianca: She was embarrassed
because I wasn't living up
to her standards.
You know, to be Erica Kane's
daughter, you have to be
perfect.
Jack: Well, there's just one
thing that you're forgetting.
As far as your mother and myself
are concerned, you are perfect.
We love you just the way
you are.
[Telephone rings]
Jack: Don't move.
Hello.
Erica: Jack.
Jack, have you seen Bianca?
Jack: Not only have I seen
her, she's sitting right here
on my couch.
Erica: Oh.
Is she all right?
Jack: Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, she's a little bit
upset, but she's fine.
Erica: Well, can I speak
with her, Jack?
Jack: Hang on just a second.
It's your call.
Bianca: Yeah.
Erica: Sweetheart,
I'm so sorry for what did.
Bianca: Ok.
Erica: Please come home.
Come home, Honey, so I can make
it up to you, please.
I want us to start over.
Bianca: No.
No, I don't think so.
I think I'm going to stay
with Uncle Jack for a while.
Erica: Oh.
Do you have to?
I mean, Honey, please come home.
I promise I won't crowd you.
I promise I won't do anything
to upset you.
Bianca: No.
Mom, I just need some time away
from you to think things over.
Erica: Well, what things do
you have to think about?
I mean --
all right.
Will you call me later?
Bianca: I don't know, Mom.
Ok?
Bye.
Greenlee: Hi, Gramps.
Thanks for meeting me here.
Woodruff: Well, I can save
you some time, Greenlee.
The answer is no .
Greenlee: You haven't even
heard the question.
Woodruff: You're going to ask
me to go easy on that Leo
Depraved character.
Well, you can forget it.
Greenlee: Come on,
Granddaddy.
He really, really is sorry.
Can't you get him out as a favor
to me?
Woodruff: Not on your life.
He committed a felony.
Greenlee: Please?
I'm begging you.
Do you want me to get down
on my knees here at the Valley
Inn?
Woodruff: Greenlee, you could
crawl all the way from here
to Pittsburgh and it wouldn't
change my mind.
That young man is going
to prison.
[Knock on door]
David: I'm coming.
David: Hey.
Erica: May I come in, David?
David: By all means.
Are you all right?
Erica: No.
My whole world is falling apart.
I know that I shouldn't be here.
I just didn't know where else
to go.
David, hold me, please.
Please just hold me.
Erica: I'm sorry.
I -- I have no right to burden
you with my problems.
David: Hey, wait, Erica.
If you're having a problem,
I'm willing help, always.
Erica: I don't know
if you can help, David.
David: Why?
What's wrong?
Is Bianca giving you trouble
again?
Erica: The worst.
David: Ok, what happened?
Erica: She's left the house.
She moved in with her uncle
jack.
I can't do anything right where
Bianca is concerned.
I feel like such a failure.
David: Erica, every parent
goes through this to some degree
when trying to raise a teenager.
Blanca's just acting out.
I mean, every adolescent lives
in some crazy black and white
world between exultation
and total confusion.
Look, she'll be back.
Erica: When?
I don't know how to deal
with Bianca.
David: You act like there's
a rule book and you don't have
a copy.
You have to go with it as it
comes along.
Erica: But I should be better
at it than this.
David: Why?
Why, because you happen to be
the most glamorous woman
in the world?
You can't be a normal mother
with normal mother-daughter conflicts?
Erica, you're doing fine.
Just hang in there with Bianca.
Erica: It's not just that.
David: Why?
What is it?
Hey --
what is it?
Erica: Why is it that
everyone I love leaves me?
David: Oh, Erica.
Jack: Well, sounds like it's
all settled.
Looks like you're going to be
staying here, huh?
Bianca: Yeah, if that's all
right with you.
Jack: It is absolutely ok.
Although I think you're going
to be a little aghast at what
you find in a bachelor's
refrigerator.
Bianca: You should have seen
Mom's when I first moved in.
Jack: Oh, do tell.
Bianca: Five brands
of designer water.
[Jack laughs]
Bianca: Not one drop of milk.
Leo and I were eating cereal out
of the box.
Jack: Leo, Leo.
Yeah, look, Leo doesn't plan
on moving in here, too, does he?
Bianca: No, no, just me.
Jack: Good, good.
That gives us a chance to get
something straightened out.
Bianca: What's that?
Jack: You sit down here
and you tell me how it is
possible that you don't know how
much your mother loves you.
She absolutely worships you,
really and truly.
Bianca: Uncle Jack, I would
actually rather not talk about
this right now.
Jack: Ok. Ok.
Bianca: If you don't mind.
I'm just, like, so worn out
and --
I don't know.
If you don't mind, I was going
to just sort of crash
on your couch for a while.
Jack: Absolutely.
You lay down there.
Close your eyes and get a little
nap.
And when you wake up, I'm sure
everything will seem better.
Bianca: I doubt it.
Jack: Me, too, but that's
what people always say.
I guess you feel like the whole
world's been ganging up
on you lately, huh, kiddo?
Bianca: No, not the whole
world.
Just one person.
Jack: Well, I'll tell you one
thing you can count on.
I love you with all my heart,
and that will never,
ever change.
Greenlee: Please,
Grandfather?
I just -- I just visited Leo
in jail.
If you could see how scared
and sad he looked -- it was
pitiful.
Woodruff: You are supposed
to look miserable as hell when
they lock you up.
I mean, that's the whole point
of the justice system.
It's designed as a punishment,
not a reward.
Greenlee: But Leo doesn't
belong in a place like that.
Can't you get him out?
Woodruff: Now, why would
I want to help that thief?
Greenlee: Because I love him!
Woodruff: Oh, great woolly
mammoth.
Greenlee: Don't make fun
of me, Granddaddy.
Woodruff: I'm trying
to understand here.
But this conversation is taking
on a very familiar ring.
Now, last time it was Ryan
Lavery you loved, and I spent
millions of dolls propping up
his business --
Greenlee: I made a mistake
with Ryan, ok?
I can't explain why my feelings
for Ryan weren't real
and my feelings for Leo are.
I just know that when I walked
into that cell today and I saw
Leo there, I suddenly realized
that I had feelings for him that
I've never felt for anyone.
Except maybe you, Grandfather.
Woodruff: Oh, no.
Buttering me up is not going
to work this time.
Greenlee: Can't you just
trust me on this?
Leo really cares about me.
I couldn't -- I couldn't bear it
to see him punished.
Woodruff: All right,
I'll talk to your boyfriend.
Greenlee: Thank you, Gramps.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
You're the greatest.
Woodruff: Oh, no, no, no.
Hold on, hold on.
I said I'd talk to him,
that's all.
Greenlee: Well, once you see
how sincere he is, you'll have
the charges dropped.
Woodruff: Yeah --
Greenlee: I'm sure of it.
Woodruff: Well, I wouldn't
bet your inheritance on that,
my dear.
Ryan: What happened to me?
I guess I just felt I needed
to get my priorities in order.
Tad: Have you?
Ryan: Yes, I have.
I think that this is my big
shot, Tad, and I want to put
everything I have into it.
I don't want to look back
at this 10 years from now
and feel like I didn't give it
100%.
Tad: All right.
I'm in.
Ryan: Beautiful.
Beautiful.
I have a meeting with
the investment house later this
afternoon.
We'll get the details all
straight, and we'll fax them
over.
Tad: Ok.
Ryan: Great.
[Bianca dreams}
Bianca: Mother, talk to me.
Tell me what you feel.
Erica: I have tried every way
I know how.
In my entire life I have never
tried harder at anything.
But I simply cannot love you.
Bianca: Mommy! Mommy!
Ryan: Hey, Gillian.
What's up, Jake?
Jake: Are we interrupting
here?
Tad: No, we're done.
Jake: Oh.
Ryan: No, I was just
explaining to Tad how I'm
planning to take
incredibledreams public.
And we are planning to have
a big celebration, big party,
and I would like you guys
to join us if you can.
Jake: Well, thanks.
We'll try.
Ryan: Well,
I'm going to get going.
Take care.
Jake: Ahem.
So, so, big brother,
are you planning to take off
in the corporate jet here
to Brazil or London this
afternoon?
Tad: I don't think so.
Why?
Jake: Well, Gillian
and I were wondering if we could
fly to New York this evening.
Tad: Why not?
Jake: You mean it?
Tad: Absolutely.
Pilot's on call 24 hours.
I'll just call the strip
and make sure it's not being
maintenanced.
Jake: Wow.
Wow, this was so easy.
Could I have a house
in the Hamptons, too?
Tad: Don't push your luck,
ok?
This is expensive.
[Gillian leaves the rooms and finds Ryan on the phone]
Ryan: Yeah, absolutely.
Just don't do anything until
I get there, ok?
All right.
Gillian: Ryan, wait.
Leo: I want you to know,
sir, that I am truly sorry that
I took that money.
I honestly don't know what
possessed me.
Woodruff: Oh, skip the snow
job, son.
We both know what possessed
you --
greed, pure and simple.
You saw that suitcase full
of cash, and your eyes lit up
like a slot machine.
Leo: Yeah, I know that now.
And I knew that then.
It was wrong.
Woodruff: It's amazing what
the prospect of prison will do
to a man's conscience, isn't it?
You may be able to hypnotize
Greenlee, but everyone else
in our family sees you for what
you are, du Pres --
an unscrupulous gold digger
who's never earned an honest
dime in his life and doesn't
plan to start now.
Leo: Hold on, Sir.
Woodruff: Worse than that --
you bring out all my
granddaughter's worst character
traits and tendencies.
Leo: Now, I think that
you might be overlooking some
of my better qualities.
Woodruff: They're going
to love that smart mouth
of yours up in Statesville.
Leo: I'm sorry.
I don't mean to sass you, Sir.
Woodruff: Leo, that's who
you are.
Stop apologizing.
I'm still going to offer
you a deal.
I'm willing to go to
the district attorney and tell
him I'm not going to press
charges, and I'll make sure
you're released from this cell
this very afternoon.
Leo: That's extremely
magnanimous of you, Sir.
Woodruff: Oh, well,
you haven't heard it all yet.
I'm even willing to give
you back the million dollars
you stole from me, and you can
keep it.
Leo: Ok, and what exactly do
I have to do to earn this
incredible generosity?
Woodruff: It's very simple,
du Pres.
You take the money, fly back
to Europe.
All you have to do is promise
never to see my granddaughter
again.
ON THE NEXT - - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Jack: I think you should get
over here, and I mean right now.
Greenlee: You want to move
in with me one minute and then
sell me out the next?
