Natalie: I'm going to cut the candles.

Destiny: Why?

Natalie: 'Cause it's just too romantic. I think the wine glasses, too.

Destiny: Um, we need something to drink wine out of.

Natalie: Where are Liam and Drew and the sippy cups? I need them.

Destiny: Nora said that we deserve an adult night. Okay? That's why we have adult refreshments, okay?

Natalie: Yeah, but they were my buffer.

Destiny: But, now I'm your buffer... and Jeffrey

Natalie: Yeah, but you have a thing for the other buffer.

Destiny: I do not, okay? He is a friend.

Natalie: You really like him. Just admit it.

Destiny: Okay. Fine. Fine. But then you need to admit that you like Carter. You made out with him like a thousand times.

Natalie: [Holds up one finger]

Destiny: [Chuckles]

Natalie: We're really obvious. We're really, really obvious. They're gonna see right through us.

Destiny: I know. I know. This is horrible. Is it too late to call it off?

[Knock on door]

Blair: This is really making me crazy. I'm telling you. I woke up this morning and Jack was gone, and I about had a heart attack, Todd. I mean, how much longer is this going to go on?

Todd: Just a few more days. You know the plan.

Blair: Your plan has holes in it. I mean, your security cameras can't see Jack everywhere he goes.

Todd: We talked about this, but my guy can.

Blair: [Sighs] What guys are you talking about.

Todd: You know the guy I'm talking about. Jack's being followed 24/7.

Blair: And he's going to be really pissed off about it, too.

Todd: Well, let him be pissed off. Better pissed off than dead.

Blair: What?

Todd: Well, he's left school. He's at a coffee shop.

Blair: Okay.

Todd: He's at a... coffee shop.

Blair: So?

Todd: With a woman.

Kate: I think you're gonna have to do some extra homework for letting your mind wander in class.

Jack: How about some private tutoring?

Kate: That could be arranged. Do you know that guy?

Jack: Um... yeah.

Kate: How?

Jack: I think he was hired to follow me.

Kate: What?

Clint: [Picks up an engagement ring]

Viki: Thank you so much for coming over so quickly.

Clint: Viki, who's there?

Viki: Uh, it's Jeffrey. He came by to bring me some stuff.

Clint: Oh. Son, don't let her work you too hard, okay?

Jeffrey: Yes, sir.

Viki: So do you have the papers?

Jeffrey: Yeah. They're right here.

Viki: Good. Let's go in the library.

Jeffrey: What's going on?

Viki: Uh, Jeffrey. How quickly could you get me a list of all of investors in the Pellegrino Fund?

Jeffrey: I have my source at the SEC. If I could get ahold of him, it'll only take a minute. I'll tell you right now he won't want to go on the record.

Viki: No. It's not for publication. This is, um -- it's personal.

Jeffrey: I know you had a lot riding on this. I'm sorry it doesn't turn out right.

Viki: See, that's the problem. It did turn out right. I have been assured that my money is safe.

Jeffrey: How can that be if everyone else's funds are frozen?

Viki: Well, supposedly my broker did not execute the trade.

Jeffrey: Supposedly?

Viki: Well, that's what my source told me.

Jeffrey: Now you're not revealing sources.

Viki: Oh. It's Clint Buchanan.

Jeffrey: Ah.

Viki: See, he told me that the broker screwed up, which makes me the only winner in a very, very bad deal.

Jeffrey: You want me to find out if he's telling the truth.

Viki: Oh, God. I wish you wouldn't say it like that.

Jeffrey: I'm sorry. You want me to find out if you're among the Pellegrino investors.

Viki: Yeah. As quickly as possible.

Jeffrey: I'm on it.

Viki: Thank you. Thank you. And Jeffrey, this is just between us, please. Thanks.

David: Dorian! Dorian! Guess who has a meeting tomorrow morning to pitch his reality series to the network?

Dorian: Um... you.

David: Yes! So, put on your dancing shoes. I'm taking you to Shelter to celebrate.

Dorian: David, do you think that's a good idea the night before a pitch?

David: Only if you have an awesome sizzle reel, which I do. All I got to do is go in there, press play and they're gonna hammer out a deal with my agents like that. So, let's go!

Dorian: No. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I-I have important things to do.

David: Oh.

[Telephone beeping]

[Door closes]

Dorian: Frank. I actually got you? Oh my goodness. Hold on a second. [Closes door] [Laughing] Hi. You know, I was beginning to think that you were avoiding me.

Frank: Of course not. Dorian, what can I do for you.

Dorian: How much is Clint Buchanan paying you?

Frank: Excuse me?

Dorian: For your silence.

Frank: Silence about what?

Dorian: I'll double whatever Clint is paying you. Come clean. You put Viki's money into Pellegrino. How did you get it out?

Frank: I didn't.

Dorian: Excuse me?

Frank: Well, Dorian, it would be unethical for me to reveal to you anything about another client's assets.

Dorian: Cut the crap, Frank. You got Viki's money out before Pellegrino Funds were frozen.

Frank: No. She lost her shirt. Everyone did. It was a bloodbath.

Dorian: Then why is Viki telling everybody differently?

Frank: Beats me. Maybe she doesn't want to look bad.

Dorian: Thank you, Frank. I owe you one. Huh.

Rama: That is so amazing!

David: [Chuckles]

Rama: Wow. Aren't you nervous?

David: No. Not even a little bit. My show's gonna be a huge hit. And thanks to you -- you make my sizzle reel pop like bacon over high heat. I just made that up.

Rama: [Laughs] You're so funny, David.

David: Right?

Rama: [Laughs] You know I'm only as good as you make me, right?

David: [Laughs]

Rama: Congratulations.

David: Thank you.

Danielle: Hey, you know that job that I told you about?

Matthew: Yeah.

Danielle: I went for the Palace Hotel to help Arturo clean out Briana's things.

Matthew: That's intense.

Danielle: Yeah. I mean, I didn't know her too well and going through someone's stuff is, I don't know, it's -- it's... intimate.

Matthew: Yeah. Why did you do it?

Danielle: Well, Arturo asked. You know, he's really torn up. It was weirder than I thought it would be.

Matthew: Why?

Danielle: Well, because when --

Matthew: Yeah?

Danielle: Matthew, there was a maid there --

Matthew: Hey, there's -- there's Michelle. Hey. I thought you were supposed to be in Toronto.

Michelle: [Chuckles] I, um -- I-I didn't go. I lied to you, and I feel terrible. I just -- I had to find you and, um, tell you the truth.

Jack: Look, it has nothing to do with us. It's about some sort of danger at my mom's club.

Kate: I don't care why. I just know I don't want to lose my job.

Jack: The guy's harmless.

Kate: I'm out of here.

Jack: Can I come over later?

Kate: No. Oh, and Jack, don't forget that book report is due tomorrow, as well.

Jack: Yes, Miss Lane.

Viki: Jeffrey, did you get the list? Well, thank you for getting me the information so quickly. Oh. Okay. Well, I understand. No, no, there's nothing else I need. You have a really nice evening. Thanks. Bye.

Jack: You lied to me.

Blair: Jack --

Jack: You told me Todd wasn't having me followed.

Blair: Who's that woman that you're with?

Jack: You know who I'm with? That's -- that's so creepy, Mom.

Blair: Answer my question. I mean, it's for your own safety.

Jack: I was with my English teacher. I was studying. Now tell Todd to call off his goon.

Blair: Oh, well, I'm so sorry.

[Dial tone]

Blair: He hung up.

Todd: Oh, yeah. I-I hear.

Blair: He wants you to call off the goons.

Todd: No. That's not going to happen. My guy stays on him.

Jeffrey: Hey. Where's my hot date?

Destiny: That would be me.

Jeffrey: Yes, it would.

Destiny: [Chuckles]

Jeffrey: Is Cutter here yet?

Natalie: Unh-unh.

Jeffrey: Oh. Sorry. I thought he would be here already. Should I, like, go back and hide around the corner until he gets here? I can take my entrance again.

Natalie: I don't think we need to take it that far.

Jeffrey: Since Destiny and I were supposed on a date, I've been practicing. How was I?

Natalie: Oh, so convincing.

Jeffrey: Did a couple of musicals in high school.

Natalie: [Chuckles]

Destiny: You're a great actor. It almost seems like you like me.

Jeffrey: I'm giving it my all.

Destiny: [Chuckles]

Natalie: Okay. Uh, you guys, Cutter's gonna be here any minute, and we're supposed to be, you know, casual friends hanging out.

Jeffrey: Got it.

Destiny: Right.

[Knock on door]

Natalie: Ready?

Cutter: I've been looking forward... to you cooking for like a week.

[Door closes]

[Footsteps approaching]

Clint: You been looking for this?

Viki: Good. You had my ring.

Clint: Why did you take it off?

Viki: I take it off sometimes when I'm typing.

Clint: Are you sure that's why?

Viki: What did you think?

Clint: I don't know. I was afraid you might have had a change of heart.

Viki: Well, should I?

Clint: No, of course not.

Viki: I'm going to ask you this one more time. Are you keeping anything from me?

Clint: Absolutely not. I want you to know I couldn't survive without you. [Puts the ring in Viki's hand]

[Doorbell rings]

Viki: I'll get it.

Clint: Are we expecting anybody?

Viki: Not that I know. Oh, Dorian, no. This is not a good time.

Dorian: It never is. Hello, Clint.

Clint: Hello.

Viki: Uh, Dorian, listen. If this is about your threat to go to the SEC because of the Pellegrino fund and my money, Nora told us all about it, okay?

Dorian: I have an obligation.

Viki: Oh, yes, yes. Well, we're all aware of your very strong moral compass.

Clint: Dorian, there's nothing for them to find.

Dorian: Oh. So, you wouldn't be at all worried about an SEC investigation?

Clint: No. Of course not.

Dorian: And Viki, you would not be concerned about going to jail, would you?

Viki: What are you implying?

Dorian: I'm not implying anything. I'm telling you that the man you love has betrayed you, and you have been so besotted with love that you haven't even noticed.

Clint: Dorian, get out of here now.

Dorian: Oh, Clint, did I say something to upset you?

Viki: I don't know what you're after, and I don't really care.

Dorian: You should care. I talked to Frank today.

Viki: I see.

Dorian: If you don't come clean, Clint, I'm going straight to the media -- the media, Viki, not your piddling little paper.

Viki: Clint?

Clint: We need to be alone.

Dorian: Oh. "We." Indeed. Lovely seeing you both, as always. [Singsong voice] Bye-bye.

Clint: We didn't get the money out. I covered the loss.

Viki: Yes, I know.

Clint: How could you possibly know?

Viki: Because the list of investors -- well, the list of losers has been made public, and I'm on it.

Clint: I'm sorry.

Viki: I-I won't accept your handout, Clint. I told you that.

Clint: Viki, please, come on.

Viki: Stop. Just -- just stop. God, I don't even know what I feel right now. I guess I feel relieved that I'm not going to be investigated, and kind of devastated because I just lost a whole lot of money. But I think the worst of it is that I feel utterly, utterly betrayed by you.

David: I'm not gonna get you in trouble am I, fraternizing with the customers?

Rama: No, no, no, no. I figure if "The Real Life and Times of Vickerman" becomes a big hit then, hey, it's good for business, right? Plus, it's Cutter's night off, so I'm in charge today.

David: In that case, I'm going to let you dance with me.

[Up-tempo dance music plays]

Man: Hey, Rama, we got a problem.

Rama: Um, I'll -- I'll be back.

Matthew: You knew about this?

Danielle: Well, yeah, but --

Michelle: No, no, no. I-I begged her not to say anything. Matthew, you're a Buchanan, and I just -- I thought that you wouldn't like me if you knew I was a maid. I-I shouldn't have lied to you about who I am. That was really wrong. I put you in a really bad position, Dani. I'm really sorry.

Danielle: You know, I just don't like keeping secrets from my friends.

Matthew: Yeah, well, I'm glad you didn't have to. Michelle, I'm impressed. After everything we've been through, you got to know that honesty is more important to me than anything, okay? I don't care where you work.

Michelle: [Chuckles] You swear you won't like me less knowing that... I have a really crappy job?

Matthew: No. Being a Buchanan isn't always glamorous, okay? You want to dance? Come on.

Danielle: [Chuckles] [Gags]

Cutter: It's been just this whole series of events. First we have this girl overdose, right? And then the power gets cut randomly, and now there's a shooting.

Natalie: I thought my job was stressful.

Jeffrey: Constant trouble at a nightclub -- it sounds like a story there.

Cutter: Sorry, but this, uh, dinner's off the record. What happens at Natalie's stays at Natalie's.

[Cell phone rings]

Cutter: Sorry. I got to take this. Rama, what's wrong?

Rama: Sorry, Cutter. I had no one else to call, but we have a problem.

Cutter: Okay. I'll be right there.

Rama: But, but --

Cutter: I'm really sorry about this. There's a problem at the club.

Destiny: You're not leaving, are you?

Cutter: Look, I mean, Blair's off. With everything that's been happening, I just -- I got to go.

Natalie: No. Of course. Just let us know if everything's okay.

Cutter: Yeah, yeah. I'll call you.

Natalie: Well, so much for romance.

Jeffrey: Hello? I'm still here.

Destiny: Yes, you are. And I made my famous chocolate cake just for you.

Jeffrey: Mmm. Yummy.

Natalie: Great. Now I feel like a third wheel at my own party.

Destiny: [Chuckles]

Blair: I don't know how I'm ever gonna make it through these next few weeks.

Todd: Well, maybe you ought to spend a little time at work. That might take your mind off of things.

Blair: I'm making you crazy, aren't I?

Todd. A little bit.

Blair: I'll go.

Todd: When is the last time you ate?

Blair: I'm not hungry.

Todd: Right.

Blair: Do you remember when we first brought Starr home from the hospital, and those exhausted nights and what I said to you?

Todd: Of course. You said nobody told us there would be days like this.

Blair: Nobody tells you that you'll be petrified every time they cry. And years later, nobody tells you'll be scared to death with every phone call. I've been so scared from that minute on when they were born that I've never been able to protect my children.

Todd: Well, you have. You have protected them in.

Blair: I have not. No. Jack hates me.

Todd: Oh, Jack hates everybody. Who cares? Jake can hate me all he wants. I'll take the hit.

Blair: Thank you.

Todd: Not like that. I'm nobody's hero.

Blair: But you're really being a good father. And I haven't seen that Todd in a long time.

Todd: Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Blair: I mean it. I mean it. I'm driving you crazy now. I'll go.

Todd: You know, the kids are home safe for the night. Why don't you stay here? We can distract one another.

[Up-tempo dance music plays]

Rama: Ah, there you are.

Cutter: What happened?

Rama: The icemaker broke.

Cutter: The -- that's the emergency you called me away from my date for?

Rama: I didn't say it was an emergency, and I didn't know you were on a date. Who were you on a date with?

Cutter: You said that I was the only person you could call.

Rama: Yeah, you're the only person who knows the repairman's number, and I can't serve customers warm drinks.

Cutter: So, I'll ask James to go get a bag of ice, and then I'll call the repair guy, and I'll have him fix it in the morning.

Rama: Oh, I'm sorry. I could have done that.

Cutter: Yes, yes. Yeah, you could have.

Rama: Don't get so mad. You're the one who hung up before I could tell you what the problem was.

Cutter: All right. You're right. I'm sorry. It's my responsibility.

Rama: You know, you always hang up when I talk to you. You always hang -- and now you're walking away from me! Cutter, come back!

[On the dance floor, Rama and David get physical, kissing passionately]

Singer: ... Some more. Another drink then I head out the door. I'm feeling raw, baby, seriously, and I know tonight, there'll be sex in the city. I need more power, gonna tear it up. I'm on the prowl, step in the club... Get down and dirty. When they're poppin', you can't ever stop the party. Did she get champagne? Every girl just wants to get a little trashy. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. I'm feeling thirsty, but my money's all spent. That's what you get for being independent, but if it's flowing, you can spend it on me, and I can show you, baby, how to...

Rama: [Gasps as Dorian separates her from David]

Dorian: Back off bitch! Now! You heard me. Move! You --

David: Just let me explain.

Dorian: There is nothing to explain. I know what I saw!

David: Just calm down.

Dorian: You were kissing another woman?!

David: I-I don't know what I was doing, okay? It was -- it was exciting. There was music. It's my fault.

Dorian: I came here because I wanted to share good news with you.

David: You know what? You didn't want to share my good news earlier that I had for you.

Dorian: Thank you so much.

David: It was a mistake. Just forgive me.

Dorian: Forgive you?! The image of you kissing that shut is forever going to be imprinted in my brain. Thank you!

David: All right.

Dorian: Thank you, David, so much, because you have taught me what a crazy fool I've been thinking that you love me as much as I love you.

David: Dorian, I do love you. Stop this. You're being ridiculous.

Dorian: Something got broken tonight, David. Something that will never be fixed.

Natalie: Cutter definitely missed the best part.

Destiny: Mm, I think he had a little something else in mind.

Jeffrey: Oh, oh, oh, oh. Am I gonna be stuck with you two and your dirty girl talk for the rest of the night?

[Phone rings]

Natalie: Hey. Everything okay?

Cutter: Uh, yeah. Sorry. It was a false alarm. I'm real sorry on ditching out on dinner. It was really nice. I have a feeling I missed the best part.

Natalie: Yeah. Dessert.

Cutter: Like I said, my favorite part. So, uh, maybe a rain check. And, uh, next time, we, uh, lose the chaperones?

Natalie: So, you caught on to that, huh?

Cutter: Hey, I'm not quite as dumb as I look.

Natalie: No. No, you're not. You're on.

Viki: I begged you not to lie to me.

Clint: Let me tell you what happened.

Viki: Oh, I know what happened. You tried to fix things.

Clint: Because I love you, and I didn't want you to get hurt.

Viki: You lied to me!

Clint: I went to Frank.

Viki: I know. I know. You concocted a story, you went to Frank, got him to back you up.

Clint: That's the gist of it, yeah.

Viki: That's the gist of it. As easy as that, huh?

Clint: Viki, I didn't do anything illegal, and neither did Frank.

Viki: No, no, you didn't. You just put $5 million into my bank account.

Clint: I transferred some of my money over to you.

Viki: Remember the night that you so proudly showed me how all of my money was back in my account?

Clint: I knew you wouldn't accept my help any other way.

Viki: Why do you think you have the right to control me? Why do you think you get to decide what is best for me?

Clint: I am not trying to control you. I figured I'd go it this way, so you wouldn't get hurt and you could use the time to save The Banner.

Viki: You try and fix every problem everyone of us has.

Clint: Because that's what I do.

Viki: But you've got to stop.

Clint: I do it because I love you.

Viki: No, that's not love. What you've done has made things infinitely worse.

Clint: What would you have thought of me if I had just stood around and watched you lose everything?

Viki: Well, I'll tell you because of what you've done, I've lost the most important thing of all. [Hands back the engagement ring and walks away]

[Blair and Todd have a romantic candlelit dinner together and hold hands while looking deeply into each other's eyes]
