Days of Our Lives Transcript Tuesday 11/5/02
By Eric
Shawn-d: Sir, my dad --
Man: Hey, shawn. Good to see you, man. Come on in. Your father said you were going to be here.
Belle: Oh, my god.
Woman: Oh, may I help you?
Shawn-d: Yeah. This is my brother. I-I'm shawn.
Woman: Okay. Okay.
Shawn-d: Welcome home, bud! Welcome home.
Woman: He's in very good shape considering all he's been through.
Shawn-d: Did you miss me? Huh? 'Cause I missed you. Give me a bear hug. Give me a bear hug. Oh, I missed you so much.
Roman: Whoa! Right there! Billie, what the hell are you doing here?
Sami: Brandon!
Where have you been?
I've been trying to find you
for hours.
Remember in salem place you said
we were going to connect later
and I was going to tell you
all about colorado?
Brandon: Slow down.
Sami: Well, I left all these messages and I was trying to call you everywhere, and I think maybe it's a halloween thing, but I was kind of starting to get spooked, so I came over.
Brandon: The super let you in?
Sami: I thought something horrible might have happened.
Brandon: Well, something did. It's lexie. She's in trouble.
Lexie: You are my lawyer, cameron! Stop questioning me like I am guilty. I did not kidnap my little boy! Mom! I'm so glad you're here.
Celeste: Yes, darling, yes.
Cameron: I'll give you two some time alone.
Lexie: Oh, mom.
Celeste: It's all right.
Lexie: This is a nightmare.
I-I-I'm being set up, mom.
I saved isaac,
but everyone thinks I'm lying.
So how do I make these people
believe me?
Bo: Abe, I can't sit here any longer while lexie and her lawyer concoct some phony story for her defense.
Abe: Look, it's procedure. Bo, we got to do this right.
Bo: Oh, procedure! My wife is being held against her will.
Abe: We're going to find her, bo. I promise you that. We're going to interrogate lexie as long as it takes.
Cameron: Oh, no. Not no y you're not. Abe, my client is exhausted. She needs her rest.
Bo: Oh, isn't that -- abe, don't let her get away wi--
Abe: Let's quit -- quit the stall here, cameron. Now, lexie is not going to rest until she confesses and tells us where we can find hope.
Tony: Lexie has no idea
where to find her.
But I do.
I know where hope is.
Larry: Well, well, well, look who's awake. Easy there, hope. You banged your head pretty hard. You might have a concussion. Sorry I was so rough on you, but, uh, you really gave me no choice.
Hope: Where is zack, larry? What have you done with my son?
Larry: The mother's always the last to know.
Woman: 3-year-old kidnap victim zack brady was recovered earlier tonight by his own father -- detective bo brady. Police arrested alexandra dimera for the crime.
[Radio clicks off]
Larry: Ha ha ha ha.
Hope: He's free. My baby.
Larry: Safe and sound
with daddy,
just like you wanted.
But now, hope...
you're going to do something
for me.
Tony: I assure you, the police escort was not necessary. As soon as I found out my sister was arrested, I was going to come over here when your police came knocking.
Bo: You said you know where hope is.
Tony: Yes. She's with a very talented criminal who has framed my sister for this crime.
Bo: You son of a--
Abe: Bo, bo, bo...
Bo: This is just a game for you, isn't it?
Tony: A game? A game? On the contrary. I'm just as upset as you are. I have a sister who's been accused of a crime she didn't commit.
Abe: You know, we found lexie
red-handed with a very
frightened zack in her arms.
Tony: Well, according to the voice mail I got from my sister, she found zack.
Bo: Yeah -- in a storeroom at salem place. Your sister just happened to show up there? That q quite a coincidence.
Tony: Wait a moment. Ever since zack's disappearance, my sister's been frantic about his well-being.
Bo: Frantic she might get caught, more like it.
Tony: Oh, really? Is that why, when she found the wallet and the itinerary of hope's, she handed it in? Can't you see this? You're not thinking it through. It's all been too easy.
Bo: If it were easy, hope would be in my arms right now.
Tony: You know, bo,
I'm really sorry about
what's happened to hope --
I really am --
but my sister's the victim here,
not the perpetrator.
Can't you understand?
We're both in this together.
Someone is trying to hurt
both our families --
someone who's familiar
with our history.
You're all falling for it!
Abe: Following the evidence.
Tony: Well, follow your heart! You know my sister would not lie to you.
Abe: What I know is that you're involved in this somehow, and I'm going to prove it.
Tony: So be it. We're just wasting valuable time. I'd like to see my sister.
Abe: Ha ha. So you and lexie can get your stories straight? No way. Not until you've been thoroughly interrogated. Come with me.
Tony: Think about what I said, bo... for hope's sake.
Lexie: Mom...
please, listen to me.
I've been telling the truth,
I swear.
Someone planted hope's wallet
in my car,
and her itinerary in my purse.
I turned the evidence over
to abe.
He said he believed me,
that he believed that I was
being set up.
Celeste: And now, darling? What -- what happened to change his mind?
Lexie: I was at the mall... and I heard his voice. The sound was -- my heart leapt. I followed it, and there he was -- my little boy.
Celeste: All alone?
Lexie: Yeah.
He was all alone.
I took him in my arms.
I could have held him for hours,
but I knew I had to bring him
to the authorities.
Well, that's when abe and bo
burst in.
They grabbed isaac from me,
treated me like they did
months ago,
when i had taken him.
Mom, I was guilty then...
but not this time.
I swear.
I've spent hours repeating
all of this to cameron, to abe.
I don't know what else to say,
mom.
I don't know what to do.
Celeste: You know what you need to do, alexandra. You must tell them where to find hope.
Lexie: You don't believe me either?
Hope: Coward.
Larry: Ha ha ha ha. Come on. I think what I did was, uh, pretty brave. Clever, too.
Hope: I knew you were trying to set up someone, but I never thought --
Larry: But you never guessed
that it was lexie carver,
did you?
Oh, come on.
She was the perfect person
to take the fall
for this heinous crime,
what with her habit
of running off with kids
that don't belong to her.
I mean, I was totally hooked
on this baby-switch saga thing,
and then with the kidnapping,
well, I couldn't wait to read
the "spectator" in the morning
to find out what was happening.
That's when I decided
to use lexie.
Hope: My god.
Larry: In case you're interested --
Hope: I'm not.
Larry: I planted your wallet in her car, and your itinerar--
Hope: Stop! I don't want to hear it!
Larry: And, of course, a somewhat gruesome item --
Hope: Shut up! Shut up.
Larry: But the most perfect thing of all... was how I positioned little zack right where lexie would find him and where your hubby and the commander would find her. Now all I need to do is plant one more piece of incriminating evidence, and the woman is doomed.
Hope: You'll never get away with this.
Larry: Oh, no?
Hope: When I'm free --
Larry: Whoa! Whoa, whoa. What are you going to do? What? Are you going to finger me and clear your friend lexie? Sorry, babe. Not gonna happen... 'cause you're never gonna be free. Y st
Sami: So, lexie's in jail, huh?
Brandon: She was set up. I mean, I was with her when she found hope's wallet.
Sami: She's kidnapped before. She's guilty as sin.
Brandon: No, she's not. I mean, if you would have seen how upset lexie was when she found out that zack was missing. I mean, I was with her that whole night. We were searching everywhere.
Sami: You were?
Brandon: She was
beside herself, samantha.
No one can put on
that good of an act.
Besides, I know lexie.
I know she didn't take
that kid.
Sami: Brandon, why didn't you tell me any of this when we were on the phone? I mean, about you spending so much time with lexie.
Brandon: I couldn'T. I just --
Sami: What? What, you were protecting her? Look, brandon, you're the one who's always on me about this whole "honesty" thing, so now it's your turn. What else have you kept from me about you and lexie?
Shawn-d: We are going to do so much fun stuff now that you're home. We are going to go to the park all weekend. You want to go to the park this weekend?
Zack: Yeah.
Shawn-d: Yeah? Yeah?
We are going to go to the park.
We're going to play
in the playground all day,
and then we're gonna go play
baseball, and you know what?
It doesn't matter if it gets
cold, 'cause we'll just
bundle up or whatever, okay?
Sound good?
When can he come home?
Woman: Tomorrow, probably. We do want to keep him overnight for observation.
Shawn-d: I'm gonna stay here then. I don't have to sleep or anything. I'll just -- I'll sit in that chair or whatever.
Woman: No, you don't have to do that. I'll have a cot brought .. but don't keep him up too long.
Shawn-d: Thanks, doc. Hey, we're gonna have a sleepover! Stand up. Stand up straight.
Belle: Hey, shawn, didn't you buy zack something at the snack bar?
Shawn-d: That's right. Okay, stand right there. I have something for you. You ready?
Zack: A lollipop.
Shawn-d: Ah, that's right. You want it now?
Zack: Give me that.
Shawn-d: There you go. This is to make up for all the halloween candy that we missed trick-or-treating. But guess what. Us bradys are going to have our special halloween party, okay? We are going to hide candy all over the house, and we're going to just go nuts. And after that, we're gonna put on our superman outfits, and we're gonna jump in a big pile of leaves. That sounds like fun.
Belle: I'm definitely gonna have to get a picture of that.
Shawn-d: Yeah.
And then -- listen.
After that,
after you're totally worn out,
I am going to make you
the biggest, biggest bowl
of macaroni and cheese
you have ever seen.
Belle: Wow, macaroni and cheese. That's your favorite.
Shawn-d: Mm-hmm, and instead of me going back to the dorm after we're all done, I'm going to have another sleepover in your room. Does that sound like fun? We're gonna hang out, watch videos. What do you think, huh? Huh? Come here, give me a kiss! Ha ha ha! Now tell me, have I left out anything? Is there anything else that you want now that you're home?
Zack: Mommy.
Roman: Billie, billie,
we spotted your squad car
outside the alley.
You and your partner
are supposed to be patrolling
the area around salem place,
not picking through garbage
2 miles from the mall.
Billie: I know, but mark and I realized that there would be several alleys along the route between the mall and the dimera mansion.
Roman: Classic billie reed -- decide to ignore orders and follow your own hunch.
Billie: Yeah, and it's a good hunch. Come on, lexie easily could stash evidence here. Oh, roman, just let me follow through with this, please.
Mark: Billie, I didn't find anything across -- captain brady, um, officer reed and I were just --
Roman: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Save it.
Officer reed filled me in.
Now listen to me, both of you,
all right?
This might havbebeen
a good idea,
but this is no time to be
out here acting on your own
without backup, all right?
So next time, radio in.
Is that clear?
Good.
Proceed.
Billie: Captain... we'll find her.
Billie: Okay, mark, help me go through this dumpster. Here, shine the light for me.
Mark: You got something?
Billie: I'm afraid so.
Bo: Phone call time is over. We're going to lexie's cell and get some answers.
Cameron: Excuse me. I need to use the ladies' room.
Bo: Aw, come on, stop your stalling!
Cameron: Don't you shout at me, detective brady!
Bo: You and your lexie are out there making up stories!
Cereron: And don't you shout at my client, either! I will not have it, do you understand?
Roman: What the hell is going on here?
Cameron: Your brother's
personal involvement in this
case is getting out of control!
Bo: Personal involvement. Personal involvement. What is she talking about, roman? Huh? My wife has been kidnapped, you idiot!
Cameron: And that doesn't give you an excuse to harass me nor my client!
Roman: Cameron, just calm down!
Cameron: I just got off the phone with judge mcdonald, and he has agreed to issue a temporary restraining order against you, bo. So from now on, required by law, you must stay clear of lexie carver.
Bo: You gotta be kidding me.
Cameron: I also called
the commissioner to explain
the situation to him.
And he'll be contacting
commander carver, oh...
any second now.
Bo: How much do the dimeras pay you to be such a hardened snake?
Roman: Bo! Bo, don't make this any worse.
Abe: All right, what's going on here?
Bo: She got a restraining order against me.
Man: Commander, the commissioner's on line 4.
Tony: Delightful chatting with you, abe. We must do it more often.
Bo: Abe, tell me you got something new from him.
Abe: Well, like father, like son. He knows how to keep his hands clean.
Bo: Damn it.
Tony: I want to see my sister.
Cameron: No problem.
Follow me.
Roman: Hey, maybe this is for the best, all right? Let us take care of lexie, all right? You get the hell out of here and calm down.
Bo: Roman, I got to do something to help my family.
Roman: That's true. You do. And I know exactly what that is. Follow me.
Lexie: So you actually think
that I took isaac,
the little boy that I love
and adore more than anything
in this world,
and put him in jeopardy?
Well, that just warms
my heart, mother.
You know what?
I am not going to beg and plead
for you to believe
that I am innocent.
I've been there, I've done that,
with abe, bo, everyone,
and I'll be damned
if I'll do it with you,
my own mother!
God!
Celeste: I believed you when you took zack the last time, alexandra.
Lexie: That was a terrible mistake! I thought you understood that I deeply regretted that, that I would never do something like that again!
Tony: I'm here, alexandra. I'm on your side. That's all you need.
Lexie: Oh, tony, thank god. Guard, would you please let my brother in? My mother was just leaving.
Celeste: Alexandra, darling, just --
Lexie: Go! Get out!
Celeste: Cameron, may i see you for a moment, please?
Lexie: Tony, please. You have to help me.
Tony: I will, I promise.
I'm going to get you
out of here.
Billie: Have you seen bo?
Man: He just left with roman.
Billie: Abe, you've gotta see this.
Abe: Where did this come from?
Billie: It was in a dumpster on the route between the mall and the dimera mansion.
Billie: It's hope's, isn't it? It seems to match the description of the sweater she was wearing the day she disappeared.
Hope: Larry... what are you going to do to me?
Larry: Haven't you learned anything, love? Nothing? I'm not going to do
anything to you. Lexie is your kidnapper, and now she's going to be your
murderer. So prepare to die, hope.
Sami: Well, let's hear it, brandon. What else haven't you told me about you and lexie?
Sami: Brandon. Brandon, I know you had a thing for lexie before you and i were together.
Brandon: Samantha, can we just --
Sami: No, I mean, you have this bond or whatever with her.
Brandon: That's true.
Sami: So? Do you still have a thing for her? I mean... what else about your relationship with her aren't you telling me?
Brandon: Look, we should sit down.
Sami: Okay.
Brandon: All right, yes,
it's true.
There was a time
when lexie and i
were really connected.
Sami: How connected?
Brandon: We shared A... we shared a m-- a mutual attraction. But it was when lexie and abe were separated, and there's --
Sami: How far did this mutual attraction go? Brandon?
Brandon: You know I hate abe. I really wanted to hurt him, to keep him and lexie apart.
Sami: By being with his wife?
Brandon: Lexie still loves abe. She always will. So we dropped it, you know? We just decided to be good friends.
Sami: And this mutual attraction thing?
Brandon: Is dead, on both parts.
Sami: And that's all you were keeping from me.
Brandon: Yes.
I promise you, samantha,
I love you --
no one else.
Come here.
Belle: He fell asleep awfully quickly.
Shawn-d: Yeah, two seconds into my best bedtime story. Can you believe it?
Belle: He's had a long day.
Shawn-d: Yeah, yeah.
Belle: What's wrong?
Shawn-d: I was just so scared that I would never see him again.
Belle: I know.
Shawn-d: I'd just keep thinking when he was gone about all that time I wasted.
Belle: What do you mean?
Shawn-d: Well, when my mom found out that zack was her son, and I rejected him because he wasn't J.T.
Hope: Shawn, honey, look, I just want you to know something.
Shawn-d: Mom, you don't
have to lift my spirits.
I'm fine.
I'll get through this.
Hope: You'll get through it?
Shawn-d: Look, I'm sorry if that's not enough, but I can't pretend to feel something that I don'T. And why would you want me to? Wouldn't you rather I be honest? This christening -- it doesn't mean much to me 'cause I keep picturing J.T.
Shawn-d: Like you need to hear that. I'm sorry. That was selfish of me. How -- how could I do that?
Belle: Shawn, don'T. What's important is what's now, and how much you love that little boy and he loves you.
Shawn-d: Yeah. But what do I tell him when he wakes up and he asks for his mommy again?
Bo: Tell him
she's going to be home soon.
Shawn-d: Dad.
Bo: Has he been asleep long?
Shawn-d: You brought him home just like you promised.
Bo: Yeah. That was only half my promise. I'm going to bring your mom home, too. I'm going to bring her home to both her boys.
Hope: You're not making any sense. Lexie's in jail. She can't kill me.
Larry: Ah, yes, but the pen is indeed mimightier than the sword. It transcends both time and place.
Hope: What are you talking about?
Larry: You're about to write
a goodbye letter that will
convince your heartbroken
and shattered family
that crazy lexie was responsible
for your kidnapping,
and you're going to describe
lexie's plan to take little zack
out of the country
and dispose of you,
and then you're going
to end this S.O.S.
Praying that it'll be found
someday after you're gone,
all right?
And that maybe, just maybe,
it'll help capture your killer
and save little zack.
And then I'm going
to plant this letter somewhere
that'll lead everyone to believe
that you're not only dead,
but your body
will never be recovered,
and that way bo and his crew
will never, never find you.
They'll cease their search,
and crazy lexie's fate
will be sealed,
and I will never be suspected
of any wrongdoing.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know, I know.
None of this bodes too well
for you,
but if it's any consolation
at all,
I will move you
from this place someday --
to a far more secure
and better equipped prison
that I have built
in a faraway, exotic place
where your family
will never find you,
even if they are looking.
Hope, I have spent 20 years
planning this revenge --
20 years waiting to see
that look on your face.
You know what?
It fulfills
my every expectation...
as will this letter.
I'll dictate, you write.
Hope: Never. I'll die before I write that letter.
Lexie: How long, tony? Oh, you've got to get me out of here.
Tony: You wouldn't be here in the first place if you confided in me about the evidence against you.
Lexie: It was all planted on me, okay, to make me look guilty, I swear.
Tony: I don't doubt that, but, damn it, why did you go to abe instead of me?
Lexie: He's my husband. I love him.
Tony: So what did you think, he's going to come back to you and that all will be forgiven if you just confided in him?
Lexie: Okok, I don't want
to get into this right now,
okay?
You said that --
that you'd help me
prove my innocence,
that you'd nail
whoever set me up
so I can get out of this place.
Tony: Yeah. Listen, whoever set you up in the first place is never going to be found, and the authorities will never set you free.
Lexie: You sound like you know who it is. O are you talking about?
Tony: Father.
Shawn-d: Dad... so what are you waiting for? Why don't you go to the jail and make lexie talk?
Bo: I will, but things have gotten a little complicated.
Woman: There's a call for both captain and detective brady at the nurses' station.
Roman: I'll take it. Stay with your boys.
Bo: Thanks.
Look, son, I --
I know you feel helpless.
Shawn-d: Well, I just keeththinking -- thinking about mom, you know, anlexie's in jail, zack's with us -- she's got to be alone. She's got to be scared.
Bo: Your mom's a fighter. She's going to be okay.
Shawn-d: How can you be sure?
Bo: Because I know her, and so do you. She's going to make it through this. She's going to use everything in her power to come home to us.
Roman: That was abe. He wants us back at the station asap, no details.
Bo: All right.
Just stay here with zack, okay?
Keep an eye on him.
And you -- keep an eye on him
for me, will you?
Belle: I will.
Bo: Thanks. I'll call you as soon as I know something.
Bo: Good night, tiny man.
Bo: Hey. Abe couldn't give you any specifics?
Roman: No. Billie reed found something in a dumpster. Abe wouldn't tell me what it was over the phone.
Bo: Let's go.
Larry: I wouldn't suggest you play hardball, hope... not at this stage of the game.
Hope: I won't write the letter. I won't help you.
Larry: All right, since you don't seem to get it...
Larry: Take a look at these.
Hope: Shawn.
Larry: That's right.
Your poor, poor boy struggling
to get on with his life
without his mother.
There's a shot of him
going to college,
there's a shot of him
going to class --
there's just pictures
of him everywhere.
You know, I used a camera
to shoot the boy.
Next time,
it might be a gun.
Sami: I believe you, brandon. I'm the only woman you love, right?
Brandon: Yeah, sure.
Sami: You're still thinking about lexie, aren't you?
Brandon: Look, she's my friend, samantha.
Sami: Okay, fine. But I am the woman you love, right? And since you are the man that I love, I want to show you how much I missed you.
Sami: What? What's wrong?
Brandon: Tonight isn't right, samantha. I've got to go back to lexie, back to the station.
Brandon: Once I make sure she's all right, I promise I'll come back, all right, and we can have our night together. It'll be worth the wait, oy?Y?
Sami: Go.
Do what you have to do.
[Knock on door]
Billie: Commander, here's the report on, uh... are you okay?
Abe: Uh, you need a signature?
Billie: Yes.
Abe: Good work, reed.
Billie: Abe, I'm -- I'm really sorry about lexie.
Abe: You know, how can you -- how can you love somebody more than any other living soul on earth, and not only do they become a stranger in front of your own eyes, they... they become capable of, uh... she not only took that boy, she may have taken a life.
Hope: Give me a pen and peper.
Larry: Smile, hope.
Come on,
this is going to be fun.
Now, let's see.
"My dearest bo."
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
How would you start it?
Would you use a pet name,
fancy face?
Larry: Meme on, hope. How would you start it?
Hope: "Brady." I would just say "brady."
Larry: Good. Fine. "Brady, my dearest love, by the time you read this, I'll be gone. Lexie's gone mad." Press harder. Make it look urgent and passionate!
Hope: I'm pressing, I'm pressing.
Larry: All right. "She's vowed to take zack away to europe, start a new life with new identities, and dispose of me before she leaves." What the hell are you doing?
Hope: It's not going to work.
Larry: Wh?
Hope: The letter's not going
to work unless you let me
write it in my own words.
Larry: Why the hell would --
Hope: Listen, bo and i have a way of talking -- certain things we always say to each other. If that isn't in there, then bo is never going to really believe that I wrote it.
Larry: Bull.
Hope: I know my husband.
Larry: Okay. Okay, fine. You go ahead and write it. But no funny stuff. Don't get cute. I don't want to see any -- any codes or hidden messages in there, 'cause if they're in there, I will find them, and your family will suffer for it.
Hope: I promise you,
I will give you
exactly what you want. U're here!
Man: Mrs. Carver insists she is innocent of all charges.
Sami: Give it up, lexie. You're toast. Once you are locked up for life, you won't be able to come between me and brandon ever again.
Brandon: Celeste. Hey. How's lexie?
Celeste: I'm so afraid for her, brandon.
Cameron: And, brandon, I need to speak with you about lexie's defense.
Abe: Well, I get him first. It's good you came by. I was just going to bring you in for questioning.
Brandon: Fine. Ask away, commander. I'm here to help lexie any way I can.
Abe: Well, I suggest you get a lawyer.
Brandon: What? Why?
Abe: You're going to be charged as an accessory. Chase.
Chase: Yes, sir.
Abe: Take him down to the interrogation room and hold him there till I can get to him.
Chase: Okay.
Lexie: Tony, how could you think that father could ever --
Tony: Shh.
Lexie: How could father be behind the kidnapping?
Tony: That's not what I was saying.
Lexie: He couldn't be. He'd never hurt me like this.
Tony: What I meant was
father set you up
when he arranged
for that baby switch years ago.
His lapse of judgment
got you into trouble
with the law,
and now again it's happening
because somebody else
took advantage of that mistake,
and you're paying the price.
You've lost a child
and a husband,
and now you're facing
this town's hatred and paranoia
towards our family.
Lexie: I'll never get a fair trial here.
Tony: It's clear that our enemies are taking advantage of this town's prejudices. We just can't depend on the law to set you free, so...
Lexie: You want to plan an escape.
Belle: You know, shawn, you better make a lot of that mac and cheese you were promising zack.
Shawn-d: Why?
Belle: So trere's enough for your mom when she comes home.
Bo: Abe, what do you got?
Abe: Bo, is this...
Bo: Yeah, um...
hope has a sweater like that.
The flight attendant
in cedar rapids
said she was wearing it
when she disappeared.
Billie: Oh, I'm sorry, bo. I am sorry that I helped do this to you.
Larry: Good. Very good. Passionate, believable, no hints or hidden messages. None of the sentences start with the initials of my name or anything idiotic like that.
Hope: Oh, I'm glad you approve.
Larry: Yeah. You know, I'm going to go plant this where it can be found asap.
Larry: Oh, by the way -- don't go anywhere. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
