Leo: Try this --
you come home from school,
toss your books on the shelves,
and say, "Hey, Mom, I'm gay."
Bianca: And then I call
you to scrape her off
the ceiling?
Leo: Well, so you go
for the subtle approach.
Plaster your walls with pictures
of Melissa Etheridge and Ellen.
Bianca: Leo, you're so not
helping me.
Leo: Well, I think you're
underestimating Erica.
And just so you know,
I'm basing this on TV
and movies, not personal
experience, but,
you know, I think that Erica
wants what most mothers want --
just for you to fit in and be
happy.
Bianca: Her idea of happiness
has nothing to do with who I am,
Leo.
I mean, she's so clueless.
She actually thinks that I have
a thing for you.
Leo: Oh, please.
I'm every mother's nightmare.
But you got to admit, I'm kind
of cute.
Bianca: In a hetero kind
of way.
Leo: You know, Honeylamb,
your mother may not be as retro
as you think.
I mean, she moves in the fashion
world.
She lives in a Gay Mecca.
You know her personal assistant
Val?
He's gay.
Bianca: Yeah, and I bet
you she would say that some
of her best friends are gay.
But her daughter?
No way.
Erica: Oh, come on,
Greenlee, you can't possibly
think you know my own daughter
better than I do.
Greenlee: You might be
unpleasantly surprised.
Erica: Oh, yes, because
you're her best friend,
aren't you?
Greenlee, you're not even
her type.
Greenlee: This is true.
This is true.
But it doesn't always take one
to know one, if you know what
I mean.
Erica: No, I really don't
have a clue.
Jack: Miss Smythe,
if you have something to say
about my niece, why don't
you just come out and say it?
Greenlee: Well, I hate to pop
your balloon, but you're bound
to find out.
Erica: Find out what?
Greenlee: Erica,
your daughter has been deceiving
you.
Erica: Deceiving me how?
Greenlee: She's not real keen
on being the female half
of the young Enchantment couple.
Erica: That's it?
Look, I obviously know that
my daughter has some
reservations about the campaign.
That's just nerves, thank you.
Greenlee: Well, it's more
than just a case of
the Jim-Jams.
She isn't like you, Erica.
She doesn't live for
the spotlight or see herself
as the center of the universe.
She didn't inherit
your man killer instincts,
either.
Heads don't turn when she walks
into the room, men don't throw
themselves at her feet,
and women don't have to restrain
their husbands and boyfriends.
Jack: My niece is a beautiful
young woman in her own right.
Greenlee: She's cute.
But she doesn't have the right
look or the savvy to be
a spokes model.
Erica: No, she has something
much more important.
She has a natural, youthful
quality, a doe-eyed innocence.
Greenlee: Just like Bambi.
Erica: Oh, Greenlee.
You are so jealous of Bianca
and her lifestyle.
Greenlee: That is so not
true.
Erica: I just hit a nerve,
didn't I?
You are so jealous o
her relationship with Leo
and the fact that now she's
going to be spending
24/7 with him and you are going
to be so out of the loop.
Greenlee: The young
Enchantment campaign is going
to fall flat on its butt
because no one's going
to believe that a girl like
Bianca could attract a babe like
Leo.
Erica: They're together now,
having a great evening.
Greenlee: "They're together
now, having a great evening."
Oh, yeah, Erica, your daughter's
having a gay old time.
Mateo: I saw that.
Hayley: Oh, I know.
I don't know what's wrong
with me.
I am out on my feet.
Mateo: It's called sleep
deprivation.
That's what it's called.
Hayley: Oh, I can't sleep
at night.
I'm tossing and turning,
worrying about Arlene.
I thought for sure she would've
resurfaced by now.
Mateo: Hopefully, she left
town.
Hayley: You think?
Mateo: Well, what's left
for her here?
Hayley: A lynch mob led
by my dad.
Mateo: She'd be crazy
to stick around.
Hayley: Crazy is her best
event.
Mateo: Ok.
Listen --
you're a zombie.
You're going home, all right?
Get some rest.
Hayley: You know,
I -- I would sleep much better
if we were in snuggle mode.
Mateo: All right, I'll ask
Adrian to close early for me.
Just go, ok, please.
Hayley: I love you.
Mateo: Love you, too.
Drive safe.
Mateo: Hey.
Adrian: Hey.
Mateo: What's up?
Adrian: Good crowd tonight,
huh?
Mateo: Yeah, yeah.
Listen, can you close up early
for me tonight?
Adrian: Sure, not a problem.
Mateo: Ok, listen,
would you be interested
in a little moonlighting after
hours?
Adrian: Depends on the job.
Mateo: Right up your alley --
strictly undercover.
Dixie: What do think,
David Hayward is some sort
of Svengali who has me
in his power?
How flattering.
Tad: I asked you an honest
question.
Dixie: It's insulting, Tad.
I have a mind and a will
of my own.
No one controls me.
The only influence David ever
had on me was as my boss
and as the signer of
my paycheck.
Tad: Well, if that's
the case, then why is
he constantly, constantly
crossing the line between
your professional and
our personal life?
As in coming here tonight
and demanding your time,
especially after what happened
with Jake.
That's a complete invasion
of privacy.
Dixie: What do you want me
to do?
You want me to slam the door
in his face?
Kick him in the groin and call
the cops?
Tad: Those are three very
viable options.
Dixie: I told David that what
he did to Jake was
reprehensible.
I backed it up with
my resignation.
I think he got the message.
Tad: No, he didn't.
Dixie, he threw it right back
in your face.
He actually came here tonight
and asked you to go back to work
for him.
Now, where on earth would he get
the idea that you would even
consider it unless it came
from you?
So just tell me, I want
to know -- are you sending
Hayward some kind of mixed
signals?
Dixie: Honey --
come on.
The only signal that I'm sending
David is to get lost.
Tad: Well, then he has
absolutely no respect
for your wishes.
Dixie: It's just
because I resigned on him.
Nobody has ever done that
and it's just thrown him.
Tad: Baby, I don't -- I don't
want this to be a putdown --
you know I don't -- but there
are other people on the planet
that can do that job.
Dixie: Thanks, Tad.
I know that being
David Hayward's assistant wasn't
exactly brain surgery, but there
were other services that
I provided that weren't
in the original job description.
Tad: Ok, all right, this is
where I start to get a little
nervous.
What kind of services did
you provide?
Dixie: I just listened
to him.
I listened to him.
Tad: You listened to him?
Dixie: Yes.
At the end of the day,
after a long day in the OR.,
he liked to come back
to the office and talk,
and I would listen.
It was important, and I think
he showed a side of himself that
he didn't usually show the rest
of the world.
Tad: Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?
Dixie: I know, I know he is
a contradiction, trust me.
Tad: Oh.
Dixie: But he has his human
side, too.
He saves lives.
He can be incredibly vulnerable.
Tad: Oh --
Dixie: He was devastated when
Erica broke up with him.
Tad: You could've fooled me.
Dixie: Well, that's what
he does -- he fools people.
That's his defense.
But he has a heart, Tad.
Really he does.
Tad: Oh, you weren't there
when he went after Jake.
Dixie: And you weren't there
when he gave Junior
a much-needed ego boost.
Tad: Dixie, if he does
something like that,
it's for a purpose.
It's because he wants to score
points with you.
Dixie: Would you just
stop it?
We're just going to go round
and round in circles on this.
Can we just not talk about it
anymore?
Tad: No!
I don't like the idea
of you being Hayward's shoulder
to cry on, or anything else
for that matter, especially
if it involves sitting around
his office and bonding over
snifters of brandy.
Dixie: Oh, no way.
You just hold on right there.
How many times have you and Liza
bonded over a bottle
of champagne when you were
closing some business deal?
David and I shared some cognac
once.
It was one of those rare moments
when he actually let somebody
get close to him.
Tad: How close is close?
Dixie: Tad --
Sweetheart, it's Halloween,
and I don't want to fight
with you.
Opal is here.
She's with the boys.
Let's just -- let's go out
dancing.
Ok?
Come on, it's the witching hour.
Anything can happen.
Tad: Anything?
Dixie: Anything.
Tad: Hmm.
Then you'd better go strap
on your dancing shoes.
Dixie: Ok, I'll be right
back.
Tad: Ok.
Dixie: Ok, ok.
Tad: Ok.
David: Jack. Erica.
Mind if I join you?
Jack: Actually, we're having
a private conversation.
Erica: David, of course
we don't mind.
Please join us.
David: Thank you.
Erica: David, my goodness,
what happened to your hand?
David: I was assaulted
at the hospital.
Erica: That's horrible.
Why would anyone assault you?
Who did this?
Jack: Maybe a disgruntled
patient.
Erica: Well, did hospital
security catch your attacker?
David: No, I chose not
to involve them.
But I am taking legal action.
Jack, I would like you
to represent me to file charges
against the doctor who did this.
Erica: A doctor did this?
I don't believe it.
Does Joe Martin know?
David: Oh, I'm sure he's
heard by now.
Erica: David, this is
completely outrageous.
I mean, it's completely
unethical.
Of course Jack will take
your case.
Jack: If you don't mind,
Erica, I manage my own caseload.
So far, Doc, you're a little
light in the details.
David: This doctor and I have
never seen eye to eye.
He's clearly threatened
by my success.
Jack: Does this envious
doctor have a name?
David: Jake Martin.
I was in the staff lounge when
Jake came racing in itching
for a fight.
Words were exchanged.
The next think I know,
I'm on the floor and he's trying
to bash my head in.
And to make matters worse,
his brother Tad joined
in on the fun, proceeded to use
my body as a punching bag.
Jack: Well, now,
in my experience, the Martin
boys don't go around picking
fights.
So if they got physical
with you, it's probably
because you gave them good
reason.
David: I was simply
exercising my first amendment
rights.
Jack: Yeah, that's the flag
guys like you wave when
they don't know when to shut up.
David: Look, Jack,
I was physically assaulted
at my workplace.
It's damn lucky that my hand
wasn't more seriously injured.
Jack: Look, if I were you,
I would count myself lucky
and get over it.
David: So you're not going
to take my case?
Jack: No.
It has no merit.
If Jake and Tad came in there
and gave you what they gave you,
I'm sure they gave it
to you because you deserved it.
Erica: I'm sorry, David.
Jack's his own man.
Jack: Thank you.
David: No problem.
Enjoy your evening.
Jack: You, too.
David: Give me a scotch
on the rocks.
As a matter of fact, make it
a double.
Mateo: Yeah, so Arlene
totally got busted.
Adrian: All right,
what for this time?
Mateo: Impersonating a human
being.
Then she just completely fell
out of sight.
Adrian: You want me to trace
her?
Mateo: I want you to find out
what her next move is.
Adrian: You know
her coordinates?
Mateo: Well, she was last
seen fleeing the Chandler house
with Vanessa Cortlandt.
Adrian: Simple enough.
I'll give Vanessa a little call,
check out under her bed.
Mateo: All right,
listen, I can care less
if she left town -- I hope
she has -- but Hayley's a wreck.
She's waiting for her mom,
you know, to pull her next crazy
stunt.
Adrian: All right,
look, I'll make a couple
phone calls, all right, round up
a posse.
If Arlene is out there,
I will definitely find her.
[Hayley's nightmare]
Hayley: Who's there?
Hello?
Arlene: Sweetie, you're home.
Hayley: Mom?
Is that a baby?
Is that my baby?
Arlene: Trick or treat!
Hayley: No!
Arlene: I tricked you!
I tricked you!
Mateo: You ok?
Arlene: Oh, she's fine,
but you have to disappear!
Hayley: Mateo! Mateo!
No! Come back!
Arlene: Oh, save your breath!
He's gone for good.
It's just you and me, Sweetie.
Two of a kind, just like
the good old days.
Hayley: No!
[Knock on door]
Hayley: Who is it?
Children: Trick or treat!
Hayley: Ah!
What do you want?
Oh, candy. I know.
Yes.
Wow, those are really cool
costumes, and really scary
costumes, and really pretty
costumes.
Girl: Thank you!
Hayley: You're welcome!
Bye!
Oh.
Arlene: Trick or treat,
Sweetie.
[Hayley drops bowl of candy and it breaks]
Arlene: Sweetie, be careful.
You could cut yourself.
Here, let me help you. Come on.
Hayley: I don't want
your help.
Just go.
Arlene: Sweetie, I can't
leave you with you hating me
like this.
Look, I have to explain about
that videotape.
What you saw -- Vanessa
and me -- it's not what
you think.
Hayley: Oh, please.
Unlike you, Mom, the camera
doesn't lie.
You and Vanessa on that tape,
oh, plotting to blame Liza
for the miscarriage.
You two should take your act
on the road.
I wish you would, believe me.
Arlene: You know what?
You've got to understand where
I'm coming from.
Hayley: Oh, I know exactly
where you're coming from.
I've heard your spiel.
"Oh, I am so afraid
and I'm distraught."
Please.
You got me over there and made
me believe that you had changed
your mind about letting me adopt
the baby -- a baby that was
already dead.
How sick are you?
Arlene: All right, I lied.
Hayley: That's all you do,
Arlene, is pile lie on top
of lie.
So just go now -- now --
before I call Mateo and have him
come over and throw you out.
And you don't want that
because he hates you more than
I do.
Arlene: Hayley, I have made
my share of mistakes -- more
than my share.
But can't we just talk this out?
Just you and me, Sweetie.
Adrian: Hey, listen, I put
some phone calls out, made some
queries about Arlene to find out
where she's hiding.
Mateo: Try under a rock.
Adrian: Yeah.
[Telephone rings]
Adrian: Oh, what do you know.
Mateo: That was fast.
Adrian: You want results,
I deliver.
Mateo: Uh-huh.
Adrian: Adrian Sword.
Hey, Mom, what's up?
What?
When did this --
all right, listen, Mom,
settle down, please.
All right, what did the doctor
say?
Yeah, ok.
All right, listen, I'm going
to catch the first thing out
of here, all right?
Do me a favor -- just tell Dad
I love him.
I'm on my way.
Mateo: What's up?
Adrian: Listen, I --
I got to get out of here.
My father just had a stroke.
Mateo: Yeah, go, go, go.
Listen, if I can do anything,
please --
Adrian: Just pray for my Dad,
all right?
Mateo: All right.
Jack: Perhaps you'd like
to change places with me.
Erica: Why?
Jack: Well, I wouldn't want
you to get a crick in your neck
batting your eyes at Hayward
over there.
Erica: I'm doing no such
thing, Jack.
Jack: Uh-huh.
Erica: And you know it
wouldn't hurt you to take
his case.
Jack: I can't.
It's conflict of interests.
I'm sure he started
the conflict, and frankly,
I'm not interested.
Erica: You don't know
the whole story.
Jack: I know if Tad and Jake
got physical with him,
chances are he was way out
of bounds.
Erica: Well, he can't be
completely to blame.
There are two sides to almost
every story.
Jack: Right and wrong,
and frankly, my money's on Jake.
Erica: Well, Jake must have
done something to provoke David.
Jack: You know what, Erica?
One thing I've always loved
about you is your absolutely
blind loyalty to your man.
But tonight, it's a bore.
Come on, we're getting out
of here.
Erica: Why? Where we going?
Jack: Anywhere Hayward isn't.
Erica: But I'm not ready
to leave, Jack.
Jack: Here's your little
purse.
Say your good-byes.
We're out of here.
Erica: Who do you think
you are?
Jack: I, my dear, am the man
you came here with.
Shall we?
Erica: Well, Tad Martin.
I'm so glad that I ran into you.
I'd like to know why
you attacked David Hayward.
Jack: And I'd like to wish
you both a really good night.
And listen, Tad, if you and Jake
need any legal help with this
Hayward thing, you call me.
I'm your man.
I may even do it pro bono.
Erica: Jack --
jack: Say good night.
Dixie: Good night.
Tad: Oh, gee, how do
you think Erica found out about
my one-on-one with David?
Dixie: Uh --
I think her source is sitting
right over there.
Tad: Terrific.
This evening just keeps getting
better and better.
Dixie: Do you want to go?
Tad: What, let him chase us
out of here?
Not on your life.
Greenlee: Hey.
Cosmopolitan, straight up.
David: Greenlee.
Drinking alone?
So where's my not-so-little
brother?
Greenlee: He'll be here.
David: So,
you two still making each other
miserable?
Greenlee: Yeah. Trying to.
Leo: You know, Binks,
once the shock wears off,
your mother's going to get over
the fact that you're gay.
Bianca: I wish she could be
like you, Leo.
I mean, you didn't blink when
you heard.
Leo: I grew up in Europe.
Their approach to sexuality's
a lot more liberated.
Bianca: Yeah, but what would
you do if
your mom came out and told
you that she was gay?
Leo: Vanessa?
God.
I'd have to warn America to lock
up their wives and daughters.
Bianca: What am I going to do
when the next high school dance
comes along, Leo?
Leo: Well, we'll were a team.
Tonight was kind of a kooky kind
of fun.
Bianca: But you can't be
my cover forever.
Leo: Yeah, and you can't
pretend to like boys just
to make your mother happy.
You'll be miserable.
Bianca: So,
I -- I guess I have no choice.
I -- I just have to tell her.
Leo: Worst-case scenario,
your mother pulls a
"Mommie Dearest," butchers
the rose garden, and locks
you in your room till they find
a cure for your disease.
Bianca: She's going to flip.
I can handle that.
Leo: Well, then what?
You afraid she's going to send
you to one of those shrinks that
deprogram gays?
Bianca: I'm afraid
if my mom finds out
that I'm gay,
she's not going to love me
anymore, Leo.
Leo: Bianca,
there is no way your mother
would ever stop loving you.
Bianca: How do you know?
Leo: Because I have a mother
lion of my own.
Bianca: Vanessa isn't a thing
like my mom, Leo.
I mean, she wouldn't care
if you told her that you were
gay.
Leo: Care?
She'd be ecstatic.
She would never have to share me
with another woman.
Bianca: I just --
I don't want to disappoint
my mom, Leo.
I want to make her happy.
I don't want to let her down.
I mean, she's already had
so many disappointments
in her life.
Leo: You're not of them,
Bianca.
Bianca: You know,
she thinks that she loves me
unconditionally, but it's not
true.
She has so many conditions.
Like this one time she came
to visit me in Seattle and I had
gotten this really short,
stupid haircut, and she hated
it.
You know, I swear, it was like
I'd taken a scissor to her own
head.
She actually wanted to buy me
a wig.
And I couldn't get her to calm
down until I explained
to her that it would grow out.
But I'm not going to grow out
of being gay.
So all the dreams that she has
for me
are ruined.
Arlene: Hayley,
what I did to Liza was hateful.
I know that.
But I wasn't myself.
I mean, I had just lost a baby.
I felt like I was losing
everything.
And then I fell under Vanessa's
influence.
I don't know why I listened
to her.
I mean, maybe it's because
of what you said, that I was
desperate.
All I know is that I wanted
to hang on to Adam just so that
I could get closer to you,
so that we could be
a family again,
so I could be a mother
to you in the way that I wasn't
when you were growing up.
Is that so unforgivable?
[Music plays]
Tad: What do you say we take
this out to the dance floor?
Dixie: Yeah, I'd love to.
[David daydreams about dancing with Dixie]
[Singing in Spanish]
David: May I cut in?
Tad: Get lost.
Dixie: He was talking to me.
Singer: Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
I wish I didn't feel it
I know it just ain't right
but it seems to pop up
in my head
morning, noon, and night
I just can't release it
the memory of you
mama never told me
love would leave me so damn blue
and I got misery
'cause I know
loving you is a sin
and I've been on my knees
baby, I don't get it
baby, you and me
never, ever could have been
so I got misery
misery
misery
misery
Hayley: You know what,
Arlene?
I do have dreams of having
a family --
big dreams --
but they don't include you.
So give it up.
We're never going to be one big,
happy tribe.
Arlene: Sweetie --
Sweetie, nothing has been right
since I've lost that baby.
I can't sleep. I can't eat.
I can't even put two words
together.
Hayley: Oh, you're doing just
fine.
Arlene: Look, I -- I'm not
fine.
I am not fine.
Maybe I have postpartum
depression -- I don't know.
I feel like I should check
myself into a clinic to get
help.
Hayley: Knock yourself out.
Arlene: Well --
you know, the doctors are very
high-priced nowadays and I don't
have insurance, and I was
wondering if you could
spot me --
Hayley: Forget it!
There's no way I'm going
to bankroll your next binge.
I'll tell you what,
though -- I will give you
enough bus fare to get
to Center City.
After that, you're on your own.
Mateo: What are you doing
here?
Hayley: Oh, don't worry.
She just stopped by to say
good-bye.
Arlene's leaving town and she's
never coming back -- ever.
Arlene: Hayley, don't do this
to me, please.
Mateo: Arlene, Arlene,
she wants you to leave.
Go!
Calling the cops.
Arlene: Hayley --
just let me spend the night
here, please.
I -- I won't make any trouble.
I'll sleep on the couch.
Mateo: You think
I'm bluffing?
Try me.
Leo: Sure.
Of course she has dreams
for you, but your dreams count
just as much as hers.
Bianca: I don't think I have
any dreams, Leo.
Leo: Oh, come on, Bianca.
That's ridiculous.
Everybody has dreams.
Big ones, like driving
a race car at le mans.
And little ones like --
I don't know -- whatever life's
equivalent is of those little
mints on your pillow at bedtime.
Bianca: My dream is
that my mother will always look
at me with love.
But I know that's impossible.
Leo: Why?
Bianca: Because I know
my mother, Leo.
Once you do something to let
her down or disappoint her,
it's like you're completely off
her list, vanished from
her life.
It's the way it was with my dad
and all of her ex-husbands,
and I know for a fact that
she hasn't spoken to Kendall
since she moved to Florida.
Leo: Who's Kendall?
Bianca: My half-sister.
Leo: Huh.
Wow, she never even mentioned
Kendall before.
Bianca: See?
It's like she never even
existed.
Kendall was my sister who was
conceived when my mother was
raped.
Leo: There you go.
Kendall reminds your mother
of pain that she'd rather
forget.
But it's different for you.
You were conceived out of love.
You're always going to be
her little girl.
Bianca: Her little girl
who loves other girls.
You know, Leo, there's somebody
else that I'm really worried
about.
What if Greenlee tells everybody
that I'm gay?
What if she tells my mother
before I'm ready?
Leo: No, don't worry about
that.
I'm going to make sure that
Greenlee shuts her mouth.
Which reminds me --
I told her that I was going
to meet her at
the S.O.S. A while ago.
You want to come with?
Bianca: No, I don't think so.
I think that I've had enough fun
for one day.
I'm going to head home.
Leo: I'll drive you.
Bianca: That's ok.
I'd rather walk.
Leo: All right, well,
make sure you call me when
you get home.
Call me on my cell phone.
Bianca: Ok.
Leo: Hey.
Leo: It's going to be
all right.
Bianca: See you later.
Leo: Bye-bye.
Don't talk to strangers.
Greenlee: Leo, I was waiting
for you at S.O.S.
Leo: I was talking to Bianca.
She just went home.
What's going on?
Party boring or what?
Greenlee: No, the joint was
jumping.
I ran into Erica.
Leo: God, tell me you didn't
mention Bianca in the gay bar.
Greenlee: Hmm.
Let's review the scorecard, Leo.
You got mad because you thought
I didn't believe in you.
You let my granddad buy you off.
Now you think I'm a double
ratfink.
Are we even or what?
[Music plays]
Tad: Seriously, is it
my after-shave or my minty-fresh
breath?
Dixie: What?
Tad: Well, Baby, if you were
dancing any closer to me,
you'd be behind me.
Not that I'm complaining.
Dixie: Well, good,
because have plans
for you later.
Tad: Do they involve taking
me right here on
the dance floor?
It's not even open-fly night.
Besides, what would your friend
Hayward say?
Dixie: Who cares.
Tad: Well, I think you might.
Dixie: That's just a really
awful thing to say.
Tad: Baby, I'm sorry, ok?
I apologize.
I didn't mean it as an insult.
It's just that he's been
watching you all night long like
he's a man on death row
and you're his last meal.
Adrian: Hey, guys.
Tad: Hey.
Adrian: Listen, I don't want
to ruin your party,
but I figured you should know --
I need to go back home.
Dixie: Is everything ok?
Adrian: My father had
a stroke.
Dixie: Oh.
Tad: Oh, Adrian.
Adrian: Listen, he's
a fighter.
He'll be all right.
I know Petey and Opal are still
out of town.
Tad: Don't worry about it,
don't worry about it.
Listen, you don't even have
to ask.
Did you want a ride
to the airport?
Adrian: No, actually,
I'm going to go over to Tina's.
I'm sure she'll want
to volunteer for that, so I can
let her know I'm going out
of town.
Tad: Take care, ok?
Dixie: Yeah, keep in touch,
please?
Tad: Please.
Adrian: Listen --
tell Jake I'll call him.
Tad: Yeah. I will.
Adrian: All right.
Tad: God bless.
Adrian: Thanks.
[Telephone rings]
tad: Sorry.
Yeah?
Yeah, hi, Pop.
No, not today.
Why? I'm sure he's fine.
Oh, ok, fine.
We'll take a look.
Bye.
That was Dad.
Now he's worried about Jake.
Apparently, he disappeared
from the hospital earlier today
and nobody's seen him.
Dixie: Listen, let me just go
to the ladies' room real quick
and we'll go over your dad's
house.
Tad: Ok, ok. I'll be here.
David: Tad Martin.
To what do I owe this pleasure?
Tad: Just thought I'd give
you a two-minute warning.
Mateo: Better hustle, Arlene.
Cops are on their way.
What am I going to charge
you with?
I'm going to charge
you with trespassing,
harassment, and while you're
in jail, it'll give Adam --
Adam can charge you with fraud.
[Sirens approach]
Arlene: Hayley, please
help me.
Hayley: The way I see it,
you've got two choices --
stay and go to jail or run
for your life.
Arlene: No matter what else
you believe,
I do love you.
Mateo: It's over now.
She's gone, baby.
Hayley: No.
It'll never be over.
Not until she's dead and buried.
Maybe not even then.
Leo: Greenlee, stop playing
games with me.
Did you tell Erica about Bianca?
Please tell me that I can
trust you.
Greenlee: You can trust me
with your life -- and Blanca's.
Her secret's safe with me.
Aren't I the best?
[Leo sighs]
Leo: Don't you ever scare me
like that again.
Greenlee: I could've told
Erica.
And actually, I wanted to.
She's always been so nasty
to me.
Leo: What stopped you?
Greenlee: You did.
I stuck to the high road,
even though it almost gave me
a nosebleed, because I knew it's
what you'd want me to do.
Leo: Yeah, well, reaching new
heights can always be a scary
thing.
Thank you for protecting Bianca.
Greenlee: Thank me again.
Leo: Ok.
Erica: Well,
how out of touch am I?
That snippy little
Greenlee Smythe, insinuating all
those things about Bianca
and how unhappy she is.
Jack: Look, if I were you,
I'd consider the source and just
try to forget about it.
Erica: Oh, I would like to.
I know I should.
But how can I?
I mean, Bianca never opens up
to me.
And where is Leo with Bianca?
Leo should've had Bianca home
by now.
Jack: Erica, I'm sure
they just stopped off for a bite
to eat after the dance.
Erica: Bianca is on curfew.
Leo knows that.
Jack: And Leo also knows that
if he tries to get amorous,
you would skin him alive
and I would hold him down while
you did it.
Erica: Oh, Honey.
Hi.
Bianca: Hi.
Erica: Hi. How was the dance?
Jack: Hi, Hon.
Bianca: Uh, it was OK.
Erica: Well, where's Leo?
Bianca: He wanted to party
with Greenlee.
Jack: Oh, well, you know,
when you're right, you're right.
Listen, it's past my bedtime.
I got to go.
Come here.
We'll see you both soon, ok?
Bye-bye.
Erica: Well, Honey, sit down
here.
Sit down here, Honey, and tell
me all about your evening.
Bianca: I would rather hear
about yours.
Erica: Well,
I went dancing with Uncle Jack
to S.O.S.
I ran into Greenlee Smythe.
Bianca,
she told me something about you
that I wish she hadn't.
So I need to ask you,
is it true?
Because if it is,
we're in big trouble.
Tad: Couldn't help but notice
the way you stare at my wife.
You want her.
The only thing is you don't
stand a snowball's chance
in hell because she hasn't got
a void left that you could hope
to fill on your best day.
You're wasting your time, Doc,
because there's nothing on this
earth that has ever come between
me and Dixie.
David: Till now.
ON THE NEXT - - - ALL MY CHILDREN
Bianca: I hate
Greenlee Smythe!
She had no right to say anything!
Ryan: When you go to sleep
at night, what do you dream of?
