Bill: (Laughs) oww. What was that for?
Eden: That was for taking your toothbrush
from my bathroom. It was horrible. You should have seen my toothbrush.
Bill: Oh, yes.
Eden: Crying all night. Lonely. No one to rub
bristles up against.
Bill: Oh, I知 so sorry, but I hope your
toothbrush understands it was my idea of making a point.
Eden: Well, you scared me. I don't know why,
but you're the only guy that's ever made me panic.
Bill: Never. Never, ever, ever again. Okay?
But don't you ever drive me crazy like that again, okay? Because for a minute
there, I thought that maybe...
Eden: What, that I was playing you? That I
really only wanted Tony? You're all I want.
___________________________________________________________________
Reva: Hey.
Cassie: Hey.
Reva: Have you seen josh in here anywhere?
I've been looking all over for him.
Cassie: No. I'm sure he's on a job site. I
know Danny and I are keeping him really busy at Fifth Street. I'm so sorry. I
missed your big show. I'm so sorry; I heard it was great.
Reva: Yeah, I was waiting for the reviews to
come down on the line of kooky. You know, a real 900 number, "a real live
900 number for psychic silliness."
Cassie: Come on. You took a big risk. Hey.
The police found that little girl.
Reva: You know, you were at the hospital. Is
Olivia痴 baby going to be okay?
Cassie: Yeah, she's in no real distress.
Reva: You're a good friend to her. I hope she
deserves it.
Cassie: Well, I guess you'd be surprised what
adversity does to a person. Tune in to the Olivia channel, and it's all Olivia,
all the time. But not anymore.
Reva: I'll believe that when I see it.
(Laughs) so, how are you, sis? When I walked in here you were staring into your
coffee cup like it had tealeaves in the bottom.
Cassie: Oh... I had a really weird dream
earlier, when I was asleep in the hayloft at the farm.
Reva: Hay... What are you doing? I mean, the
farm has, like, six bedrooms or something.
Cassie: Yeah, bedrooms and pillows and
sheets, but that's so predictable.
Reva: It's a hayloft built for two.
Cassie: The dream started out really good.
Great.
Reva: Richard?
Cassie: Yeah. He was there. And I could feel
him. I could feel his energy, and I wanted to thank him. Thank him for letting
me go. It was wonderful, you know. It was closure. And, bam, a nightmare. I went
to kiss him good-bye and he turned into Jeffrey O誰eill.
Reva: It's not so horrible. Jeff isn't a bad
guy.
________________________________________________________________
Jeffrey: Well, if Mitch hendon is
cooperating, I really don't see a problem, do you? Good. Now I'm going to put
this mess to bed today. Everything's done on my end. You guys just do your job
on your end. Are we clear on this? I got to go.
Ross: Hello, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: Ross, hi, hi. Wow, you look like
you're ready for battle. Care to start early?
Ross: Why, do we have a problem? I mean, if
it's about Ben Reade, let's wait for the judge, shall we?
Jeffrey: Well, I'm looking forward to that.
No, but this is personal, Ross. Your woman poached my talent.
Ross: Oh, yes, Mel Bauer.
Jeffrey: Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the finest
law clerk I'm ever going to find in this town.
Ross: Ah, Blake has a keen eye for talent,
and Mel knows a good thing when she sees it. And apparently she didn't see it
when she was working for you.
Judge Aiken: Gentlemen, you're in my
courtroom today.
Jeffrey: Yes.
Judge Aiken: No throwing sand in the sandbox.
Jeffrey: Oh, I wouldn't think of it.
Ross: Of course not.
Judge Aiken: 20 minutes.
Ross: Ah, yes.
Judge Aiken: Ross, how you doing?
Ross: I'm well, how are you?
Judge Aiken: The kids?
Jeffrey: "Ross, how you doing?"
Well, this is going to be fun.
___________________________________________________________________
Alan: Alexandra, speaks your peace, and let
me get back to work. The Spaulding counsel is in court all day trying to figure
out and straighten out some copyright infringement mess.
Alexandra: Alan, why the devil didn't you
return any of my phone calls when you were in New York?
Alan: Because I was busy, that's why.
Alexandra: Too busy? You're even too busy to
save your own family?
Alan: What are you going on about?
Alexandra: Beth and Lillian have kidnapped
Lizzie. They're gone. They've taken your granddaughter, and they seem to think
they have the right to take her to some sort of... Put her through some
deprivation therapy or something, and there's nothing we can do about it. And
you know what? So far they are right.
____________________________________________________________________
Gus: I'm just saying take the case. It's your
first big case.
Harley: It's my only case so far.
Gus: Well, take the case. All right? You
leave Olivia out of it and you go find Lizzie and Beth. You just leave her out
of it.
Harley: Why, because that's the way Phillip
would have me handled it? I don't think so.
Gus: I'm just saying if you deal with her,
you get involved with her, it just complicates things.
Harley: But she is the injured party.
Gus: Exactly. She's not asking for your help.
Phillip is asking for your help. And he's willing to pay you.
Harley: Okay. But I... I'll be gentle with
her.
Gus: Honey, that's going to last, what, two
minutes? Come on.
Harley: Because I know that you do love me
and support me, I'll pretend that you didn't just say that. Don't you have
something you need to do?
Gus: No, technically, no. Look, Beth cannot
kidnap her kid. She's the custodial parent, you know, in the first place. So, I
can put an APB out on the car. That's about it.
Harley: Then do that. I love you. Kid gloves,
I promise, okay? Hi. You mind if I come in.
Olivia: Yeah.
Olivia: Look, Harley, don't take this the
wrong way. You know what, I don't really care how you take it. Right now I'm
just trying really hard not to have contractions, and seeing you doesn't help.
Harley: (Laughs) contractions. Boy, I
remember those. That was just a lame attempt to bond with you.
Olivia: Why are you here?
Harley: Not to upset you, that's for sure.
So, you're right. It's not a good time. We can straighten all of this out later.
I'm going to go.
Olivia: Wait, wait. What do you mean,
"straighten out"?
Harley: Well, let's just say I know how
Phillip can put a spin on a situation when his children are involved.
Olivia: So Phillip has spoken to you. What'd
he say? That I was lying? I'm overreacting, or maybe I知 hormonal?
Harley: Olivia, I so understand where you are
right now. And if I can give you some advice-- it's the advice I知 sure you've
given yourself a million times already-- do not let Phillip Spaulding make you
crazy.
Olivia: See, I thought that was part of his
charm.
Harley: Well, succumb at your own peril.
(Laughs)
Olivia: We both have done that.
Harley: Look; I don't know how much Phillip
told you about our divorce, but you and me, we got a lot in common. See, a child
of Beth痴 also broke up my relationship with Phillip.
Olivia: Yeah, very tough combo, those two:
Beth and her brood.
Harley: (Laughs)
Olivia: I'm really tired of trying.
Harley: Then don稚. But maybe you could
tell me what happened with Lizzie when you fell.5a
Olivia: Would you believe me?
Harley: I already do.
____________________________________________________________________
Alexandra: Alan, listen to me. Your
granddaughter may be desperately ill because I have had a hard time buying some
of the...
Alan: Because she is a Spaulding. I have
groomed her myself. She is as tough as nails.
Alexandra: And might that not be part of the
problem, dear?
Alan: Look, I love Beth, but she has no right
to make a unilateral decision where Lizzie is concerned.
Alexandra: Fine, fine. Then maybe we ought to
find some way to make this right, and preferably without a lot of publicity.
Alan: And I think Phillip is the key. I mean,
he can wrap Beth around his finger. Besides all of this is his fault anyway.
Expecting Lizzie to obey Olivia. I mean, just because he lusts after her...
Alexandra: Alan, it's not going to... You
can't blame Phillip for this. At least not out loud right now. And if he is the
key to Beth, then we have to find some way to work together. We have to find
some way of marshaling him to our side.
____________________________________________________________________
Jeffrey: Hello everyone.
Alexandra: Ha.
Jeffrey: Is there an arraignment today? Which
Spaulding broke the law this time?
Alexandra: (Chuckles)
____________________________________________________________________
Reva: Thank you so much. So your dream was
about Jeffrey O誰eill?
Cassie: It was about Richard... Well, it
started out being about Richard. Jeffrey O誰eill, that was the nightmare part.
Reva: Oh, come on, Cassie, it's not that bad.
The guy saved your life.
Cassie: Yeah, well, I知 over that. I don't
know. Jeffrey O誰eill is unavoidable. He's inescapable. He's... He's like
death or telemarketers.
Reva: Death?
Cassie: Yes. Seeing his face is like seeing a
face from the grave. It's Richard's face, you know. I've had to deal with that,
and I have dealt with it. And now I got to worry about him invading my dreams?
Reva: I think you're overreacting just a bit.
Cassie: Spoken like a woman who Jeffrey痴
hitting on and she likes it.
Reva: Okay, for about the 950th time, all
Jeffrey O誰eill is interested in is my work, okay? Now back to this dream of
yours. The man happens to be a carbon copy of your one great love, a love you
lost. So it makes sense that he would throw you for a loop.
Cassie: Okay, so you know this isn't a
warning. It's not a prediction of icky things to come.
Reva: A dream is a dream. You have to let it
go. So what were you doing sleeping in the hayloft? Oh, forget it...
Cassie: (Laughs)
Reva: Forget I even... I don稚... I don't
want to know.
Cassie: No, no, no, I知 going to tell you.
Reva: No.
Cassie: The hayloft was one of the peak
experiences of my life.
Reva: Oh, lord.
Cassie: (Laughs) I don't mean a couple of
peaks. I mean like a whole freaking mountain range. I mean it was like the
foothills, the valleys, and the waterfall. It was just amazing...
Reva: Are we leaving out the sacred eagles
soaring overhead?
Cassie: I was an eagle. (Laughter) well,
there were two of us...
Reva: Stop. You really... You really have to
stop now. I mean I am trying here. I really am. But it is still Edmund and. I
know you're happy and I think that's a wonderful thing. Is it love?
Cassie: I don't know. It's a lot of things.
Reva: I saw something today. When I was at
the hospital, there was a woman there and she was pregnant, and she was so full
of love. And the baby that was growing inside of her was just bathed in it, you
could tell. And she was glowing, glowing with the love for her baby, with the
love for her husband. And it was so intense that it absolutely embraced
everything around her including me. And it made me want to... Reach out.
Cassie: Wow. No wonder why you want to find
josh.
Reva: Yeah, I want to touch him. I want to be
in his presence. I mean, if... If seeing love manifest in a total stranger
can... Totally overrun my consciousness, then why can I not feel that in my
marriage? I mean, it's fine and dandy for you and Edmund to be like two eagles
rolling around in the hay and all, but what about... What about josh and me?
________________________________________________________________
Alan: Well, I hate to disappoint you, but my
sister and I are here simply acting in full accordance with the laws of our
land.
Jeffrey: Oh, you're turning yourselves in?
Finally. No, you're really doing the right thing. Bravo.
Alexandra: Yes, well, actually, we're here
just filing some papers with the court. Co
Jeffrey: Oh, pity. But I will get a chance to
slap the cuffs on you soon enough. Don't worry.
Alan: (Laughs) I challenge you to try.
Jeffrey: I will, Alan, I will. How's Beth?
Alan: Beth?
Jeffrey: Yeah, Beth. Beth Raines. Your former
daughter-in-law. You know, beautiful blond, about this tall?
Alan: I know whom you're talking about. I had
no idea that you were acquainted with Beth.
Jeffrey: Oh, we're acquainted. We're very
well acquainted as a matter of fact. That's... I was going to ask... Well, I was
going to pay her a visit later.
Alexandra: Oh, I wouldn't bother about that,
because she happens to be away with her daughter.
Jeffrey: Oh, really? Oh. Well, that's nice
that she and Lizzie are getting some girl time together, because Lizzie really
needs it, doesn't she. I was there when Olivia Spencer took that fall down the
stairs at the beacon. Lizzie witnessed the whole thing. It must have been very
traumatic for her.
Alan: I advise you to save your concern, Mr.
O誰eill. Beth is an excellent mother and she will take care of Elizabeth.
Jeffrey: Oh, yes, I知 sure she will,
because Beth is a good parent. And she's very beautiful, too, isn't she?
Beautiful, I mean, she defines ravishing as a matter of fact.
Alexandra: (Chuckles)
Alan: Back off, mer. O誰eill.
Jeffrey: You know I get a lot of that. You
two scamps stay out of trouble now.
Alexandra: Oh.
Alan: If that man so much as lays a lustful
stare on Beth, I'll kill him.
____________________________________________________________
Jeffrey: How does marina enjoy being a new
millionaire?
Ross: Marina hates that money. In fact, she
tried to refuse it.
Jeffrey: Really? And to think that no one in
her family would ever have to eat another buzz burger for as long as they lived.
Ross: (Laughs) nonetheless, she wants no part
of it, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: A glimmer of nobility in this town?
That's almost inspiring. Chances are she wouldn't see a dime of the money
anyway, Ross. The victims' families will probably lay claim to that estate.
Ross: Well, they would have no cause. I mean
the trust is in marina's name making the money almost untouchable. Although
knowing marina, she'd probably turn around and give it to them anyway.
Judge Aiken: I understand we have some
housecleaning to do.
Ross: Ross marler for the deceased, your
honor.
Jeffrey: Jeffrey O誰eill for the state,
your honor.
Judge Aiken: Yes.
Jeffrey: Your honor, in addition to the
briefs that were already submitted...
Judge Aiken: Mr. O誰eill, would you
approach the bench? There are some matters we have to discuss.
Jeffrey: Of course.
_____________________________________________________________________
Harley: So Lizzie mentions the carpet, which
you then have fixed. Naturally. Only it comes unglued again magically. And now
she's got plausible deniability regarding the whole thing.
Olivia: And if I fall, imagine that, she can
say that she warned me. Following that logic, do I think Lizzie is some little
monster who tried to kill my baby, both, or me?
Harley: I think you're entitled to your
opinion.
Olivia: Well, I guess we all live in our
private versions of reality. So, yeah, that's mine.
Harley: But you do know how lucky you are to
even be sitting here having this conversation with me?
Olivia: If I tell you, when I think about
what could have happened... Haven't you just ever wanted to be away from this
twisted Spaulding circus?
Harley: Well, I mean, I can't believe you
even have to ask me that.
Olivia: Then I guess you can understand why
I知 in survival mode. I mean, if I could... I just want to get away from that
family. If I could carry this baby to term in Hawaii, Guam, a million miles away
from here... I'm scared.
Harley: I don't blame you.
Olivia: I'm assuming Phillip asked you to do
something. What?
Harley: Well, Beth took Lizzie out of town.
Phillip thinks that Lizzie... Lillian and Beth are planning an intervention with
Lizzie. But he's freaked out. Anyway, he wants them found. He wants them brought
back home.
Olivia: So Lizzie's out of town.
Harley: Yes, and I know that that gives you a
little bit of a sense of relief, but it's not all good. I mean Beth can't...
Beth can't really handle her. She's part of the problem, you understand.
Olivia: Yeah, but she's not your problem
anymore. She's not mine. Lizzie's Beth痴 daughter. Let her do with her what
she wants, and Phillip can stew in it all. As far as I'm concerned, you should
let him.
Harley: Olivia, I知 not sure I can do that.
_____________________________________________________________
Reva: I mean, it's not like we don't have
great, eagle- soaring sex, but it's so married. You know, I mean what happened
to back seats of cars, kitchen tables, and the mile-high club.
Cassie: I don't know. But take the hayloft.
Take the whole farm. (Laughs) plan the ultimate seduction of Joshua Lewis.
Reva: No, you know what? That's so
"Springfield women's monthly." Don't you think? I mean, "how to
rekindle the flame," "50 ways to please your man." You can't plan
spontaneity. Great passion has to just happen.
Cassie: But you and josh, you're married and
you have two children together. I have three. You know, there are hotels to run.
There are TV shows to run. And if you can't plan passion or a little impromptu
meeting in a linen closet, I mean, when are you going to have it? (Laughs)
Reva: That's what this has come to?
Cassie: Oh, come on, you and josh is the
hottest couple I know. So you're a little off track.
Reva: I can't even find the man.
Cassie: You see so you're not off track.
(Laughs)
Reva: Yeah.
Cassie: I got to run. You're going to work it
out. I have faith in you, big sis.
__________________________________________________________________
Reva: (Laughs) hi. It's me. Well, no, I
just... I've been looking all over for you. I couldn't find you anywhere so...
Are you busy? No, no, everything... Everything's fine. I'm just wondering if
maybe that we could meet.
Bill: Hey, aunt reva.
Reva: (Laughs) hey, bill, how are you?
Bill: All right.
_________________________________________________________________
Gus: Hi, Eden. Hi.
Bill: Hey, Gus, what's going on?
Gus: Mind if I join you guys?
Eden: Yes.
Bill: No, not at all.
Gus: Well, thank you, thank you, and bill.
Eden: Don't you have some perpetrator to
squeeze a murder confession out of?
Gus: I told you so many times, Eden, I was
just trying to do my job.
Eden: Your job, I know, I know. But still it
just feels like so much emotional abuse and abandonment, I just... Sometimes I
can't tell the difference.
Gus: How long do I actually have to stay in
the doghouse with you?
Eden: Well, when you see pigs flying over
Main Street, you'll know I致e forgiven you.
Gus: Fine.
Eden: Fine.
Gus: Fine.
Bill: Oh, look at here, a fortune cookie.
What's it say? "A girl on your right is only hurting herself just as much
as she's hurting her own brother."
Eden: Do I look like I'm crying?
Bill: All right, not so much here, but right
here, yeah.
Eden: Look, Gus pounded me like I was a
murder suspect.
Bill: All right, listen; when that whole
thing first went down, you know what I wanted to do? I wanted to knock him out,
I did. But he's right; he had to do his job, that's all. And let's face it, he
is your brother. In the end, he's going to stick by you.
Eden: Bill, the only person that has stuck by
me is you. And right now that's all that matters to me.
Bill: (Laughs) all right.
____________________________________________________________________
Please stay with us for the
Second half of "guiding light."
Judge Aiken: Mr. O誰eill, I see that there
are five cases before the grand jury, five separate murder indictments.
Jeffrey: Yes, your honor, that's correct.
Judge Aiken: But this dismissal only goes to
four of them. What happened to the fifth?
Jeffrey: Well, in regards to the fifth, your
honor, the justice department intervened.
Judge Aiken: Oh, yeah. Odd, don't you think?
Jeffrey: Odd, your honor? The justice
department supersedes our jurisdiction and.
Judge Aiken: I know the law, mer. O誰eill.
No, my question goes to another issue. The Springfield police prepared a warrant
for Mitch hendon.
Jeffrey: Yes, ma'am.
Judge Aiken: The charge was murder in the
first degree of his wife, Ramona hendon. Mr. Marler, you represented mer.
Hendon, didn't you?
Ross: Yes, I did, your honor.
Judge Aiken: But before the Springfield
police could remand Mr. Hendon to custody, the justice department swooped in and
gobbled him up.
Jeffrey: As I was indicating earlier, your
honor...
Judge Aiken: Yes, yes. But you know it's the
logistics, and more particularly the timing in this matter that interests me.
Jeffrey: Would you care to elaborate, your
honor?
Judge Aiken: Well, yes, I would. What
interests me, Mr. O誰eill, is how the justice department discovered the
imminent arrest of an undercover operative hundreds of miles away. It's as
almost as if someone, a third party, had prior knowledge of the impending
arrest. Sound about right to you, Mr. O誰eill?
__________________________________________________________
Olivia: Harley, I知 begging you. Please
don't bring her back here. Beth's eyes are finally wide open. Just let her deal
with her daughter, okay? Isn't that what Lizzie needs? You know, a mother who
isn't distracted with her own life for once?
Harley: Okay, but Beth really can't handle
this. I mean, Lizzie needs professional help.
Olivia: Yes, she does, but she also needs
pure, unadulterated mothering. No boarding school, no Alexandra, no Alan.
Harley: No Phillip.
Olivia: The very people who have given her
enough rope to hang herself with, yes. Maybe Beth won't let that happen.
Harley: I hear what you're saying, really.
But I think that... I think that Beth needs Phillip to be in the picture with
this. That's why he wants me to get her.
Olivia: Harley, I知 begging you. Please
don't bring that witch back to town.
__________________________________________________________
Reva: Yeah, you know, Cassie just wanted you
to kind of come up, take a look around, and see if the place is up to code.
Josh: Uh-huh.
Reva: You know, she said the kids like to
play up here, that maybe fire could start.
Josh: Yeah, okay, well, I値l have some...
One of my inspectors come and, you know, checks the place out. Shouldn't be a
problem though. I mean we'll clean it up a little bit. Should be fine.
Reva: So, see anything else?
Josh: Well, I知 thinking that a water
sprinkler system for emergencies would be good. And there's A... There's a water
pipe that we can go into right there. That's good.
Reva: And?
Josh: I'm also thinking about doing electric
in conduit, and. And the walls are open. So we won't have any trouble running
pipe.
Reva: That's exactly what I had in mind.
Josh: Huh?
Reva: And air conditioning. It could get
pretty hot in here.
Josh: Sure, yeah, air conditioning, whatever.
Reva: You see anything else that could
maybe... You know, raise an eyebrow?
Josh: No. Not at all. I mean, you know, A...
A sex kitten spread out, lay out over there by a fantasy picnic that might be of
interest to the neighbors. In fact, maybe we should think about going, because
it looks like Cassie has something... (Clears throat) ...Planned already for
this space...
Reva: This place is all ours.
Josh: Yeah.
Reva: All of it. For you, Joshua. And I do
mean all.
Josh: (Laughs) uh...
Reva: What's wrong?
Josh: Nothing. I'm just... I'm just up
shifting. That's all. Which it seems like that's what I知 supposed to be
doing... Quickly from the looks of things. But I... I do have a question.
Reva: Um-hmm?
Josh: (Sighs) what are you doing?
Josh: (Stammers) you see, I... I know
something's happening here. I just don't know exactly what it is.
Reva: Well, why do you think it has to be
something bad?
Josh: Did you wreck the car?
Reva: Joshua...
Josh: Is it... Is it worse than that? I mean
it's...
Reva: Oh, you know, I think we're going to
have to do something about that pessimistic outlook of yours. And I do have
something in mind.
Josh: Are you feeling okay? Do you have a
fever?
Reva: Nothing more than my womanhood taking a
severe beating. But other than that, I am fine.
Josh: What does your womanhood have to do
with anything?
Reva: Oh, for heaven's sakes!
Josh: Oww!
Reva: (Sighs) I am seducing you!
Josh: Really? Wow.
Reva: Has it been that long?
Josh: Well, no, it's just that we don稚...
We don't seduce each other, you know, anymore. I mean, we... You know, we do
what married couples do. We do... Things.
Reva: We love each other.
Josh: Yes, we love each other, excellent
example...
Reva: And I happen to believe that loving can
be fun every now and again like today.
Josh: Oww, that was my hair...
Reva: Sit.
Josh: Oww. Okay, okay, I'm sitting.
Reva: Oh, look; we have all of Joshua痴
favorite things. Hmm, hmm, hmm. And me.
Josh: So...
Reva: Right there.
Josh: You didn't wreck the car then?
Reva: Even if I did, what does it matter, you
know. I mean you love car shopping just as much as Shayne does. And just for the
record, no, I didn't.
Josh: So this... This is just a "life is
good" kind of moment?
Reva: Life is fabulous. Life is great. There
is love in the world, and we're a part of it. And we were... Part of bringing it
into existence.
Josh: That's so beautiful. I just really have
one more question, though. Don't hit me, okay. What... What's going on in your
head right now?
Reva: Do you remember what it was like when
you first fell in love? When you knew you were in love?
Josh: Absolutely. Dizziness, you know,
palpitations.
Reva: What it was like when you looked at
that person in the eyes?
Josh: You know, it's funny, though, I can't
remember her name. Oww.
Reva: And you heard them talking but you
really didn't know what they were saying because all you could feel were the
thrills of being near that person.
Josh: The thrills, yes.
Reva: Well, that's what I知 feeling right
now.
Josh: Don't.
Reva: What?
Josh: Reva, did... Did something happen
today? Something that triggered this... This behavior?
Reva: I was just remembering what it was like
when I fell in love with you, and I wanted to remind you of what it was like.
Josh: So you're not feeling bored, you know,
or...
Reva: Oh, for heaven's sakes! You know what?
You are going to have your head examined. I love you. And you are going to love
me right back, right now!
___________________________________________________________
Judge Aiken: Do you know how long I致e been
on the bench?
Jeffrey: Quite a while, your honor. As I say,
your opinions are quite well known in.
Judge Aiken: Mr. O誰eill, your charm is
totally wasted on me.
Jeffrey: I see. Well, with all due respect to
the court, your honor, I think you would have a hard time finding anyone who
would characterize me as charming.
Judge Aiken: No doubt. So let's cut to the
chase. When you were district attorney in the state of New York, you worked for?
Jeffrey: Well, I worked for the state, your
honor.
Judge aiken: And now that you're district
attorney in the state of Illinois-- particularly here in Springfield-- you work
for?
Jeffrey: The state, your honor.
Judge Aiken: Well, then, we're clear. Step
back, sir.
Jeffrey: Your honor, may I address the bench?
Judge Aiken: I'm finished, Mr. O誰eill.
Jeffrey: With all due respect, your honor, I
am not finished.
__________________________________________________________
Bill: All right, listen; I'm going to go get
the car, okay?
Eden: Okay.
Bill: Okay. (Humming)
Tony: Eden, how do you want to play this? You
want to forget what happened in New York or you want to remember what happened?
Eden: I thought we already figured this
out...
Tony: Because if you want to pretend that we
don't see each other when we're in some public place, everyone's going to know
that something's going on. And my guess is you don't want that. So let's deal.

Jeffrey: Your honor, in regards to your
concerns in the matter of the justice department, I would suggest that you take
that matter up with the justice department and not the district attorney, yours
truly.
Judge Aiken: Did you just throw down a
challenge, Mr. O誰eil?
Jeffrey: I meant no offense, your honor.
Judge Aiken: Of course you didn't. But make
no mistake we are crossing swords.
Jeffrey: Your honor, as you so pointedly
reminded me earlier, my responsibility is to the state, and more specifically to
the citizens of this jurisdiction. And I take that responsibility very, very
seriously. And I will shoulder whatever burden responsibility should entail.
Judge Aiken: See that you do. Anything else,
Mr. Marler?
Ross: No, not at this moment, your honor.
Judge Aiken: Mr. O誰eill?
Jeffrey: I can't think of anything right now,
your honor.
Judge Aiken: Case dismissed by abatement.
We're done here.
Ross: I believe that I just witnessed hate at
first sight. Jeffrey, I have never seen any attorney go toe-to-toe with her
honor like that. And I can't imagine why anybody would. Unless they have a very
heavy hitter backing them up.
Jeffrey: Ross, are you suggesting that I have
friends in high places?
Ross: Do you?
Jeffrey: Well, if I told you, Ross, I'd have
to kill you. Ross, I'm not known for my sparkling humor, but that was a joke.
Ross: I'll laugh on my way home. Could you
answer the question, Jeffrey?
Jeffrey: Ross, I plead the fifth.

Harley: Hey.
Gus: Hey. Oh, so, how'd it go? Did you behave
yourself?
Harley: We had a good talk.
Gus: Yeah?
Harley: Olivia is very upset. She is
terrified of Lizzie.
Gus: Really? Are you taking the case?
Harley: Yes, I'm taking the case.
Gus: Ah, great.
Harley: But not because of Phillip. I am
planning my own little intervention here. Beth had no more right taking Lizzie
from Phillip than Phillip had taking each from me, Okays. The only chance that
poor Lizzie has of being healthy is if the whole family tries to work together.
Gus: I pulled the APB up for you.
Harley: You scored?
Gus: Um-hmm. Found Beth痴 rental car on a
little tiny strip mall by the mountains, remote part of town, 40 miles.
Harley: Wow.
Gus: Um-hmm.
Harley: Down the rabbit hole I go.

Reva: I mean, you do see that I知
practically standing on my head here trying to seduce you.
Josh: I'm just trying to talk, that's all.
Reva: Talk, talk, big deal.
Josh: I thought that women liked, you know...
Reva: You know, put up or shut up, big boy!
Josh: You're making me feel cheap.
Reva: Yeah? Well, I will respect you in the
morning.
Josh: Okay. Okay. Okay. You want to know
something? You want to known what I think?
Reva: What do you think?
Josh: I think respect the morning after is
highly overrated.
Reva: Now you're talking.
Josh: You have my attention. You think you
can handle it.
Reva: Over and over again, like two eagles
soaring in the sky.
Josh: Eagles?
Reva: Yeah, just go with it.
Josh: I just want to say one more thing,
okay.
Reva: What?
Josh: This tension.
Reva: (Laughs)
Josh: I don't mean like right here and now. I
mean, the general sense of tension that's been between us lately; it's just...
It's nothing. It's just what it is, okay. And I'm never ever going to give up on
us. And nothing will ever come between us again.
Reva: The only thing that ever came between
us was we.
Josh: Well, we have nothing to worry about
then, do we?
Reva: Nothing at all.
I've got you under my skin I have got you
Deep in the heart of me so deep in my heart
You池e really a part of me because I've got
you
Under my skin.

Tony: Listen, what happened in New York...
Eden: You know there is no New York, all
right. Did you tell Marah?
Tony: There is no Marah either.
Eden: Look, bill is not going to hear it from
me. We are very happy and I want to keep it that way.
Tony: So it's all forgotten? Can you do that?
Eden: Tony...
Tony: Listen, I知 not going to mess you
guys up. Like I should be happy that we went at it like a couple of alley cats
on that filthy rooftop.
Eden: Oh, please, don't stop, you're so
romantic.
Tony: It's the truth, isn't it? You know, it
just goes to show that Marah was right about me. I had no business being with a
nice girl like her.
Eden: Well, you're just getting sweeter and
sweeter by the moment. So what does that make me?
Tony: Someone that I don't need to pretend
with. I forgot what that feels like.
Eden: Tony, stop it. So, what, are you
thanking me for setting you free?
Tony: Good luck, Eden.
Eden: Tony, wait, I have had a thing for you
for so long. I've waited until you were available and now you are and.
Tony: And you're not. What's up with that?
When life finally gives you what you want, but you can't have it.
