 PAULINA'S VOICE: "I READ
YOUR AD IN THE PERSONALS,
AND I MIGHT BE THE ONE YOU'RE
LOOKING FOR.
I CAN MEET YOU ANYTIME.
JUST SAY WHEN.
BOX AB435."
 PAULINA: HI.
DO I HAVE THE RIGHT DEPARTMENT?
PERSONAL ADS.
GREAT.
I'D LIKE TO LEAVE A MESSAGE.
BOX AB435.
I'D LIKE TO MEET TODAY,
IF POSSIBLE.
4:30 AT THE BAY CITY AIRPORT.
LET'S SAY GATE 10.
10'S MY LUCKY NUMBER.
HOW WILL THEY KNOW IT'S ME?
I'LL BE WEARING A BLUE COAT
AND A FLORAL SCARF, AND I'LL BE
ALONE.
GOT IT?
GREAT.
THANK YOU.
BYE.
 JOE: PAULINA, I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE DOING AND I KNOW WHY
YOU'RE TRYING TO HIDE IT
FROM ME.
SO DO YOU WANT TO START
OR SHOULD I?

 TITO: YOU GOT A LIGHT?
 NICK: NO.
 TITO: WELL, THEN I GUESS
WE DO HAVE A PROBLEM.
 NICK: YEAH, THERE'S A BIG
PROBLEM.
WHO THE HELL IS HE?

 CAMERON: OH, MAN.
 AMANDA: HEY.
 CAMERON: WOULD YOU LOOK
AT THIS.
YOU ARE READING MY MIND.
 AMANDA: I DIDN'T THINK
YOU WERE EVER GOING TO COME
HOME.
 CAMERON: DON'T TOUCH ME,
THOUGH.
I'M UNFIT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION.
 AMANDA: OH. OK.
WELL, THEN CONSUME THIS.
HOW WAS YOUR STAKEOUT?
 CAMERON: THE USUAL.
BUT I DON'T THINK YOU WANT
TO TELL ME ABOUT THAT.
WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME WHY
YOU CAN'T TAKE THAT SMILE OFF
YOUR FACE.
 AMANDA: WELL, I COULDN'T WAIT
TO TELL YOU.
MY MOTHER HAS SOMEHOW MANAGED
TO WORK SOME SORT OF A MIRACLE.
SHE'S PULLED TOGETHER
THE CAPITAL TO REINSTATE ONE
OF OUR OLD MAGAZINES.
AND HERE'S THE BEST PART --
SHE'S ASKED ME TO BE THE EDITOR.
 CAMERON: THAT'S GREAT.
THAT'S FANTASTIC NEWS.
 AMANDA: YEP.
 CAMERON: NOW, WHAT IS
THE MAGAZINE?
 AMANDA: IT'S CALLED "BRAVA."
HAVE A SEAT.
AND I AM SO EXCITED, I DON'T
EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN.
I HAVE SO MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS.
BUT I DO KNOW THAT I WANT
TO HAVE A MAGAZINE FOR TODAY'S
WOMAN.
IT'S GOT TO BE SMART, AND IT'S
GOT TO BE HIP AND IRREVERENT,
BUT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE VERY
DEEP, INVESTIGATIVE PIECES.
I MEAN, WE ARE GOING TO BE
RESPECTED.
 CAMERON: HMM.
 AMANDA: WHAT?
 CAMERON: SOUNDS LIKE YOU KNOW
EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT.
 AMANDA: I KNOW THAT I WANT
THIS TO WORK.
AND I'M -- I'M STARTING TO THINK
I REALLY CAN HAVE EVERYTHING --
AS LONG AS YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE.
RIGHT?

 RACHEL: I HAVEN'T SEEN AMANDA
THIS ABSORBED IN A LONG TIME.
 MATT: WHERE IS SHE?
 RACHEL: SHE'S PROBABLY OUT
SELLING SUBSCRIPTIONS.
 MATT: YOU KNOW, SHE'D NEVER
SAY IT, BUT I REALLY THINK
SHE MISSES BEING IN
THE TRENCHES.
 RACHEL: IT'S NICE
OF HER TO HAVE SOMETHING
OF HER OWN, ESPECIALLY AFTER ALL
SHE DID FOR THE COMPANY.
HERE.
 LILA: OH, WHAT'D SHE DO?
 MATT: SHE GAVE UP HER JOB
AT THE "HERALD" TO HELP CORY
PUBLISHING GET BACK
ON THEIR FEET.
 RACHEL: AND NOW THAT WE'VE
GOT INVESTORS FOR "BRAVA," IT'S
NICE TO BE ABLE TO REPAY HER.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
 RACHEL: I'LL GET IT.
 MATT: ALL RIGHT.
HEY, LILA.
YOU GET ANY SLEEP LAST NIGHT?
 LILA: NO.
I THINK OUR JASMINE IS A NIGHT
BLOOMER.
 MATT: YEAH?
 LILA: MM-HMM.
 MATT: I HEARD HER CRYING.
I DIDN'T JUST WANT TO BARGE
INTO THE GUEST ROOM.
HEY.
 LILA: WELL, A HUSBAND OUGHT
TO BE ABLE TO COME INTO
HIS WIFE'S BEDROOM WHENEVER
HE WANTS.
 MATT: AS LONG AS I KNOCK
FIRST.
I MEAN, LET'S FACE IT -- WE'RE
NOT YOUR TYPICAL MARRIED COUPLE
ON THEIR HONEYMOON YEAR.
 LILA: NO.
BUT AFTER WE HAVE A CHANCE
TO GET COMFORTABLE --
[RACHEL SLAMS TELEPHONE]
 MATT: WHAT'S WRONG?
 RACHEL: I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
 MATT: WHAT'S WRONG?
 RACHEL: WE JUST LOST ALL
OF OUR INVESTORS FOR "BRAVA."
 MATT: WHAT?
ALL OF THEM? JUST LIKE THAT?
 RACHEL: EVERY SINGLE ONE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT GAVE THEM COLD
FEET.
JUST A FEW HOURS AGO, THEY WERE
VERY, VERY ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT
ALL THIS.
I MEAN, WHO GOT TO THEM?
 LILA: OH, MY --
OH, MY, I'VE GOT TO CHANGE
THE BABY.
 RACHEL: YOU KNOW SOMETHING
ABOUT THIS?

 LILA: WHAT WOULD I KNOW ABOUT
YOUR INVESTORS?
I'VE NEVER EVEN MET THEM.
 RACHEL: LILA --
 LILA: WHAT?
I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
 RACHEL: YOU WENT THROUGH
MY NOTES, DIDN'T YOU,
AFTER I TOLD YOU THEY WERE
PRIVATE.
WHO DID YOU TALK TO, LILA?
WHO DID YOU TALK TO ABOUT THOSE
NEGOTIATIONS?
 MATT: MOM, WHY WOULD LILA TRY
TO MESS THIS UP?
IF CORY DOES WELL, IT'S
IN HER BEST INTERESTS.
 LILA: I WANT WHAT YOU WANT
FOR THIS FAMILY, RACHEL.
I SWEAR I DO.
 MATT: JUST -- WHAT SHOULD
WE DO?
SHOULD WE TELL AMANDA?
 RACHEL: WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO FIND SOME INVESTORS,
AREN'T WE?
 MATT: NOT WHILE OUR CASH-FLOW
PROBLEM'S DOWN TO A TRICKLE.
 RACHEL: THANKS FOR
REMINDING ME.
 LILA: LISTEN, I DON'T KNOW
WHY WE CAN'T FIND THE MONEY.
IF WE COULD JUST FIND THE CORY
MILLIONS, YOU KNOW, YOU WOULDN'T
EVEN NEED THOSE INVESTORS.
 RACHEL: WELL, I'M NOT GIVING
UP, I CAN TELL YOU THAT MUCH.
 MATT: THIS IS BAD.
THIS IS VERY BAD.
 LILA: MATT, WOULD YOU JUST
TAKE CARE OF JASMINE
FOR A LITTLE BIT?
I'VE GOT SOMETHING I'VE GOT
TO DO.
 MATT: YOU'RE LUCKY I'M
A FATHER WHO DOESN'T SAY
NO TO DIAPERS.
 LILA: LUCKY ME.
 MATT: HEY, LITTLE ONE.
HMM?
 LILA: YES, I'D LIKE TO SPEAK
TO JORDAN STARK.
YES, YOU TELL HIM LILA ROB--
LILA CORY IS CALLING.
YES, HE'LL TAKE THE CALL.
YES, MR. STARK?
YEAH, SOMETHING IS WRONG.
SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG.
 
 CHRIS: WHAT'S UP,
BEAUTIFUL LADY T?
 TONI: HEY.
HOW YOU DOING?
 CHRIS: OH, I DON'T KNOW.
GUESS IT DEPENDS ON WHATEVER IT
IS THAT I DID THIS TIME.
WHAT DID I DO?
 TONI: I'M READING
"THE LOVE LADY" COLUMN.
HAVE YOU READ IT TODAY?
 CHRIS: NO.
WHAT DOES SHE HAVE TO SAY NOW?
 TONI: "DEAR LOVE LADY,
MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE BEEN
MARRIED 10 YEARS.
EVERY DAY WE PRAYED FOR A CHILD
TO COME INTO OUR LIVES
AND COMPLETE OUR FAMILY,
BUT EVERY DAY OUR PRAYERS WENT
UNANSWERED.
WE TRIED DOCTORS, AGENCIES --
EVERYTHING.
UNTIL TWO YEARS AGO, A PRIVATE
ADOPTION AGENCY CAME THROUGH
WITH A BEAUTIFUL, STRONG BABY
GIRL.
FROM THE FIRST MOMENT THEY PUT
HER IN MY ARMS, SHE'S BEEN
MY LIFE.
BUT NOW MY HUSBAND AND I HEARD
THROUGH ANOTHER COUPLE THAT
THE AGENCY MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN
LEGITIMATE."
 CHRIS: HMM. WOW.
 TONI: YEAH.
IT GOES ON --
"I'M NOT SURE WE CAN LIVE
WITH THE QUESTIONS, MUCH LESS
THE ANSWERS THAT COULD DESTROY
MY FAMILY.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?"
IT'S HARSH, HUH?
 CHRIS: YEAH.
SOUNDS LIKE A CASE FOR
KING SOLOMON.
SO WHAT'S THE LOVE LADY'S
ADVICE?
 TONI: WELL, SHE WAS VERY
WISE, I THOUGHT.
SHE -- SHE SAID THERE ARE
NO EASY ANSWERS, AND SHE WANTED
HER READERS' RESPONSES.
 CHRIS: VERY SMART OF HER.
SO, WHAT'S YOUR RESPONSE?
SERIOUSLY.
IF YOU WERE THIS MOTHER IN THIS
POSITION, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

 JOE: WHO ARE YOU MEETING
AT THE AIRPORT?
 PAULINA: ARE YOU SPYING
ON ME?
 JOE: IS IT A SECRET?
 PAULINA: WHAT IF IT IS?
 JOE: ARE YOU GOING TO TELL ME
WHO WAS ON THE PHONE?
 PAULINA: JOE, COME ON.
 JOE: LET ME REMIND
YOU OF SOMETHING, PAULINA --
THERE IS A WARRANT OUT
FOR VICKY'S ARREST.
SO NO MATTER HOW GOOD FRIENDS
YOU ARE --
 PAULINA: JOE, JOE,
JOE, STOP, STOP, STOP.
THAT WASN'T VICKY ON THE PHONE.
I SWEAR TO YOU, IT WASN'T VICKY.
YES, SHE'S MY FRIEND AND I'M
WORRIED TO DEATH ABOUT HER,
WHICH IS WHY I WOULD RUN
TO YOU FIRST IF SHE CALLED ME.
 JOE: I KNEW THAT.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO --
 PAULINA: NO, I'M SORRY.
DON'T. DON'T.
 JOE: DAMN IT, I JUST --
I HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT
WHAT HAPPENED IN HARRISON'S
HOUSE THAT NIGHT.
 PAULINA: BUT YOU DON'T THINK
VICKY DID IT?
 JOE: ALL I KNOW,
PAULINA, IS THAT MOTHERS DO
CRAZY THINGS WHEN PEOPLE
THREATEN THEIR CHILDREN.
 PAULINA: LIKE WHEN I TOOK OFF
WITH DANTE.
 JOE: YEAH.
YEAH, PEOPLE ACT OUT OF EMOTION
WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR KIDS.
 PAULINA: HEY, I LEFT
WITH MY BABY, BUT I DIDN'T SHOOT
YOU.
CAN'T YOU JUST GIVE
HER THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT?
 JOE: I'VE SAID THIS A MILLION
TIMES, OK, BUT I'LL SAY IT
AGAIN.
I KNOW YOU KNOW IT ALL BY HEART,
BUT I GOT TO GO WHERE
THE EVIDENCE LEADS ME, AND RIGHT
NOW, ALL THE EVIDENCE LEADS ME
TO MATERNAL INSTINCT --
TO VICKY.
WHO YOU'RE NOT MEETING
AT THE AIRPORT.
SO WHO ARE YOU MEETING
AT THE AIRPORT?

 NICK: WELL, DO ONE
OF YOU WANT TO FILL ME IN?
I DON'T THINK IT WAS A TOUGH
QUESTION.
 REMY: NICK --
 TITO: ME? I'M THE CARPENTER.
 NICK: THE CARPENTER?
 TITO: YEAH, SEE, ALL MY LIFE,
I'VE HAD THIS SPECIAL THING
FOR WOOD.
YOU CUT IT AND YOU MEASURE IT
AND EVERYTHING COMES OUT EVEN.
WHOA, THERE, BIG GUY!
I COME IN PEACE.
I MEAN NO HARM.
EXCUSE ME.
OH, WHAT DO YOU KNOW -- FIRE.
 NICK: WHY YOU NEED
A CARPENTER?
 REMY: UH -- SHELVES.
FOR SOFIA.
YEAH, SHE'S DONE SO MUCH FOR ME,
YOU KNOW, I JUST WANTED TO DO
SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR HER.
SO, THANK YOU FOR CHECKING UP
ON ME.
I THINK I'M JUST GOING TO GO LAY
DOWN FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
 NICK: WELL, HOW MUCH SEP DO
YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING TO GET
WITH SOMEONE BUILDING SHELVES
IN THE NEXT ROOM?
 REMY: I'LL BE FINE.
IT'S JUST A HEADACHE, YOU KNOW.
IT'LL GO AWAY.
 NICK: YOU WOULD NOT BE ACTING
THIS WEIRD IF IT WAS JUST
A HEADACHE.
IT'S THE EYE THING.
IT'S BOTHERING YOU, ISN'T IT?
 REMY: NICK --
 NICK: YOU SHOULDN'T BE
AFRAID.
 REMY: I'M NOT
SO AFRAID.
 NICK: I KNOW YOU.
YOU FREAK, YOU BOLT.
NOW, COUGH IT UP -- WHAT'S
GOING ON?
 REMY: THERE'S REALLY NOTHING
TO TELL, OK?
I JUST -- OK, MAYBE WHAT I HAD
IN MY EYE IS STILL THERE.
I'M JUST GOING TO FLUSH IT OUT
WITH SOME WATER AND SEE IF THAT
HELPS.
 NICK: LET ME TAKE A LOOK
AT IT.
WHAT, YOU CHICKEN?
 REMY: YOU STILL TRYING TO GET
YOUR HANDS ON ME?
 NICK: AND WHAT IF I AM, HUH?
LET ME SEE.
WELL, I STILL DON'T SEE
ANYTHING.
 REMY: SEE?
NOTHING TO GET ALL CRAZY OVER.
WHAT, YOUR EYE NEVER GOT
IRRITATED BEFORE?
 NICK: YEAH, BUT --
 REMY: PLUS I HAVE A HEADACHE.
AND DON'T THEY SAY THAT
YOUR EYES GET ALL FUNNY WHEN
YOU'RE HAVING A MIGRAINE,
YOU KNOW -- THE WAVY LINES
AND THE SPOTS?
THEY GO AWAY WHEN THE HEADACHE
GOES AWAY.
 NICK: YOU'RE SEEING SPOTS?

 AMANDA: YES, "BRAVA" IS
MY NEW BABY.
YOU DON'T NEED TO BE JEALOUS,
THOUGH.
YOU'RE ALWAYS GOING TO COME
FIRST.
AND YOU CAN, OF COURSE,
HAVE THE FIRST COPY.
CAMERON'S FINE.
HE'S GREAT.
ACTUALLY, THAT'S ONE
OF THE REASONS THAT I CALLED
YOU.
ALLI, WOULD IT BE OK
WITH YOU IF HE SPENT CHRISTMAS
WITH US?
YES.
YES, I AM.
 OUI.
 BEAUCOUP.
I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO LIKE HIM
A LOT, TOO.
HE'S --
IT'S LIKE HE'S NOT AFRAID
OF ANYTHING.
YOU PROMISE NOT TO LAUGH
IF I TELL YOU SOMETHING REALLY
MUSHY?
I TRUST HIM WITH MY LIFE.
HE'S MY HERO.
HE'S WONDERFUL AND HE'S
UNPREDICTABLE, AND --
OK.
OK, OK. YOU'RE RIGHT.
I'M SURE WE'LL HAVE PLENTY
OF TIME TO TALK ABOUT IT
WHENEVER I SEE YOU.
YES, YES.
HE -- HE IS PRETTY COOL.
OK, SO I'LL TALK TO YOU SOON,
RIGHT?
I LOVE YOU, TOO.
 BISOU-BISOU.
AU REVOIR.
 CAMERON: WHAT WAS THAT ALL
ABOUT?
"BISH-BISHOO"?
 AMANDA: IT MEANS "KISS-KISS."
AND I WAS JUST TELLING HER ABOUT
MY NEW MAGAZINE AND ABOUT
YOU, AND
I THINK MAYBE IT'S TIME THAT
WE TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE.

 NICK: REMY, IF YOU'RE SEEING
SPOTS --
 REMY: THEY COME, THEY GO.
IT'S NO BIGGIE.
 NICK: YOU SHOULD SEE
A DOCTOR.
 REMY: NO, I -- NO, I HATE
DOCTORS.
THEY GIVE ME THE CREEPS.
ALL I REALLY NEED IS A GOOD
NIGHT'S SLEEP.
 TITO: I GOT SOME IDEAS ABOUT
THE SHELVING.
YOU KNOW, IF I COULD HAVE JUST
A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME TO OK
A COUPLE THINGS, I'LL GET RIGHT
OUT OF YOUR HAIR.
 REMY: OK, SURE. YEAH.
UH -- ANYWAY,
ANY WORD ON YOUR SISTER?
 NICK: NOT YET.
I'M GOING TO SEE DONNA RIGHT
NOW.
 REMY: COULD YOU GIVE
HER MY BEST?
 NICK: YES.
YOU SURE YOU'RE GOING TO BE OK?
 REMY: DON'T I LOOK OK?
 NICK: YOU LOOK INCREDIBLE.
BUT IT'S YOUR EYESIGHT I'M
WORRIED ABOUT.
 REMY: PLEASE DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ME, OK?
 NICK: SUE ME.
 NICK: I'LL CALL YOU
LATER, OK?
 TITO: HEY, BUDDY,
GOOD TO MEET YOU.
 NICK: RIGHT.
 TITO: NO HARD FEELINGS, MAN.
 NICK: SURE.
 TITO: OK.
WE COULD NOT HAVE PICKED
A PRETTIER PIGEON TO PLUCK.
HONEY, IT'S A GOOD THING
HE INHERITED ALL OF HIS MILLIONS
BECAUSE I CAN'T THINK
OF ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY WHERE
THEY WILL PAY YOU TO BE AS DUMB
AS THAT GUY.

 JOE: WHO'S AT THE AIRPORT?
UNLESS IT'S SOME LITTLE
SECRET RENDEZVOUS YOU DON'T
WANT ME TO KNOW ABOUT.
 PAULINA: THAT'S IT.
IT'S A TOP-SECRET MEETING
WITH THE FLATWARE AND DISHWARE
DISTRIBUTOR.
HE HAS A TWO-HOUR LAYOVER,
AND I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
NEW AND EXCITING.
YOU FOUND ME OUT.
 JOE: WELL, THAT'S GOOD.
BOY, IS THAT A RELIEF.
SEE, I KNOW WHEN YOU START
TO YANK MY CHAIN THAT I'M ALL
FORGIVEN.
 PAULINA: OF COURSE.
 JOE and PAULINA: WE'RE GOING
TO START --
 PAULINA: RIGHT.
FORGOT.
 CHRIS: SO MAYBE WE SHOULD ASK
A MOMMY'S OPINION.
PAULINA, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
 PAULINA: THE RIGHT THING
ALWAYS, OF COURSE.
WHY, WHAT'S UP?
 TONI: "THE LOVE LADY" COLUMN.
YOU READ IT TODAY?
 PAULINA: YES, I DID.
POOR WOMAN.
 TONI: I KNOW.
IF I HAD A DAUGHTER FOR TWO
YEARS AND I FOUND OUT MAYBE
SHE WAS STOLEN, I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN, I DON'T KNOWF I WOULD
TELL THE AUTHORITIES.
 PAULINA: WHAT ABOUT THE BIRTH
MOTHER -- HAVING HER CHILD TAKEN
AWAY FROM HER, NEVER KNOWING
WHAT HAPPENED TO IT,
ALWAYS WONDERING THE REST
OF HER LIFE?
AND IF SOMEBODY TOOK THAT BABY
ILLEGALLY, THEN JAIL'S NOT GOOD
ENOUGH FOR THEM.
 CHRIS: POOR ADOPTIVE MOTHER'S
PROBABLY THINKING IF SHE TELLS
THE COPS, SHE COULD LOSE
THE BABY.
 TONI: WHAT'S SHE SUPPOSED
TO DO, THOUGH?
JUST SIT AROUND, ALWAYS
WONDERING, YOU KNOW?
DID THE MOTHER GIVE THE BABY UP
WILLINGLY OR NOT?
 PAULINA: MAYBE THERE'S
NO RIGHT ANSWER.
 CHRIS: EXCEPT FOR WHATEVER'S
RIGHT FOR THE BABY.
 TONI: AND WHAT'S THAT,
TAKING HER AWAY FROM THE ONLY
MOTHER SHE'S EVER KNOWN?
 PAULINA: OR TO KEEP
HER IN THE DARK, NEVER TELL
HER THE TRUTH ABOUT WHERE
SHE CAME FROM?
 TONI: NO.
NO, I WOULD TELL HER.
I'D TELL HER THE TRUTH.
I WOULD.
 PAULINA: WHY?
 TONI: WHY?
BECAUSE YOU CAN HAVE TRUTH
WITHOUT LOVE, BUT LOVE
WITHOUT TRUTH
IS WORTHLESS.

 CAMERON: WHAT'D YOU HAVE
IN MIND?
 AMANDA: YOU HAVE TO ASK?
 CAMERON: OH.
SO --
WELL, GO ON, TELL ME MORE.
 AMANDA: WHY ARE YOU LOOKING
AT ME LIKE THAT?
 CAMERON: LIKE WHAT?
 AMANDA: WELL, YOU'RE THE ONE
WHO'S STANDING HERE IN A TOWEL,
AND I FEEL LIKE I'M THE ONE
THAT'S NAKED.
 CAMERON: I JUST WANT TO KNOW
WHAT THE NEW EDITOR OF "BRAVA"
MAGAZINE HAS IN MIND.
 AMANDA: WELL, MY MOTHER HAS
A HOUSE IN THE KEYS,
SO I THOUGHT THAT WE COULD GO
THERE AND, YOU KNOW, KIND OF GET
TO KNOW EACH OTHER AGAIN --
A FRESH START.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
WILL YOU GO AWAY WITH ME?
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
 CAMERON: THIS BETTER BE GOOD.
OH, HELLO, GARY.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
YEAH. OK.
I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.
 AMANDA: YOU'VE GOT TO GO?
YOU JUST GOT HERE.
 CAMERON: YOUR MOTHER CALLED
AN EMERGENCY MEETING.
SHE WANTS TO FIND OUT FROM ME
AND GARY WHAT WE FOUND OUT ABOUT
THE MISSING CORY FUNDS.
 AMANDA: NOW?
 CAMERON: WELL, DO YOU WANT ME
TO KEEP YOUR MOTHER WAITING?

 LILA: HELLO?
JORDAN STARK?
 JORDAN: HELLO, MRS. CORY.
ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO SEE YOU.
 LILA: ESPECIALLY WHEN I CAN'T
SEE YOU, ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
WELL, THAT DOESN'T SEEM QUITE
FAIR, DOES IT?
 JORDAN: EVERYTHING
IN ITS TIME, LILA.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
STOP RIGHT THERE, LILA!
STEP BACK, PLEASE.
I'M SORRY.
YOU WERE SAYING?
 LILA: THOSE INVESTORS --
THE ONES THAT WERE SO GUNG HO
ABOUT INVESTING IN RACHEL'S
MAGAZINE?
 JORDAN: YES?
 LILA: THE ONE I TOLD
YOU ABOUT?
 JORDAN: YES?
 LILA: THEY BACKED OUT.
 JORDAN: THAT IS UNFORTUNATE.
 LILA: LOOK,
I BEGGED YOU --
I BEGGED YOU NOT TO RUIN THIS.
I TOLD YOU HOW IMPORTANT IT WAS.
YOU CAN'T USE ME LIKE THIS.
THE CORYS ARE MY FAMILY NOW!
 JORDAN: BECAUSE OF ME.
LILA, RELAX.
HASN'T EVERYTHING WORKED OUT
FOR YOU?
 LILA: WELL --
WELL, YES, IT HAS, BUT --
 JORDAN: THEN PERHAPS IT WILL
FOR THE REST OF THE CORYS, TOO.
GOOD-BYE, LILA.
THANK YOU FOR COMING.
 JORDAN: THERE'S NO REASON
TO WORRY, LILA.
I'M ON YOUR SIDE.
WE'RE FRIENDS.
AND I HOPE YOU'LL CONTINUE TO BE
AS GOOD A FRIEND TO ME
AS I'VE BEEN TO YOU.

 CAMERON: HERE IS WHAT WE HAVE
SO FAR.
 RACHEL: WELL, BEFORE YOU GET
INTO YOUR BAD NEWS, I'VE GOT
SOME BAD NEWS OF MY OWN.
 AMANDA: WHAT? WHAT IS IT?
 RACHEL: WE LOST THE "BRAVA"
FINANCING.
 AMANDA: I THOUGHT EVERYTHING
WAS SECURE.
 MATT: SO DID WE.
 CAMERON: WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO DO?
 RACHEL: WELL, I CAN'T LET
THE COMPANY GO DOWN.
I'M GOING TO DO WHATEVER I CAN
TO GET IT BACK ON ITS FEET.
 AMANDA: I WAS JUST TELLING
ALLI HOW EXCITED I WAS.
 RACHEL: AMANDA, I DON'T SET
OUT OT DISAPPOINT MY FAMILY.
 AMANDA: MOM, OF COURSE
YOU DON'T.
OF COURSE YOU DON'T.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
THIS IS TOTALLY OUT
OF YOUR HANDS.
 MATT: IF WE HAD ANOTHER PLACE
TO GO, SOMEPLACE WHERE WE CAN
GET SOME NEW FINANCING --
 CAMERON: IF YOU FOUND
THE MISSING MONEY, NONE OF THIS
WOULD EVEN BE AN ISSUE.
 RACHEL: WELL, THAT'S WHY I'D
LIKE SOME NEWS FROM THAT FRONT.
 CAMERON: WELL, WE FOUND
A LAWYER IN LONDON.
HE'S HANDLING GUTHRIE'S
ESTATE -- ON THE SLY, OF COURSE.
 MATT: IS HE TALKING?
 CAMERON: NOT MUCH,
AND HE'S NOT A NICE GUY.
BUT WE'RE GOING TO WORK HIM.
 RACHEL: CAN YOU GET HIM
TO OPEN UP?
 CAMERON: THERE'S ALWAYS WAYS
OF GETTING PEOPLE TO TALK.
WE'RE GOING TO FIND YOUR MONEY.
TRUST ME.
 AMANDA: WE DO.
 MATT: THANKS, MAN.
 RACHEL: EVER SINCE CARL GOT
SHOT, YOU KNOW, I --
I FEEL AS THOUGH EVERY LITTLE
STEP I TAKE IS LIKE WALKING
A MILLION MILES.
I'M SO TIRED OF KEEPING
EVERYTHING TOGETHER.
 CAMERON: WE'LL FIND
THE MISSING MONEY, MRS. CORY.
JUST HANG ON.
 RACHEL: OH, YEAH.
I KNOW ALL ABOUT HANGING
IN THERE.
THAT'S WHAT I DO.
JUST LATELY IT'S SEEMING MORE
LIKE A CURSE THAN A BLESSING.

 NICK: NO NEWS ON VICKY YET?
 DONNA: JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY
SENSE.
 NICK: I KNOW.
IT'S WEIRD.
MY DAD DIED, I BLAMED VICKY
FOR SO LONG.
EVEN BLAMED HER FOR MY NOT
KNOWING MARLEY BETTER.
 DONNA: WELL, IF THERE'S ANY
FAULT TO BE HAD, IT'S MINE.
 NICK: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING
ABOUT?
 DONNA: IT'S TRUE.
 NICK: YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
 DONNA: WELL, THAT'S JUST IT,
NICK -- I CAN'T DO ANYTHING.
I'M TRYING SO HARD TO BE STRONG
FOR JAKE AND THE BOYS, AND --
 NICK: LET ME BE STRONG
FOR YOU.
 DONNA: I'M SO AFRAID EVERY
TIME THIS TELEPHONE RINGS
THAT --
 NICK: LOOK, THEY'RE GOING
TO FIND HER, OK?
EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE OK.
 DONNA: YEAH?
HOW DO YOU KNOW?
 NICK: FEELS LIKE SOMETHING
MY DAD WOULD SAY.
AND HE'D ALSO SAY THAT THERE'S
NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO CHANGE
YOUR SITUATION RIGHT NOW.
 DONNA: RIGHT.
ONLY THING I CAN DO IS CHANGE
MYSELF, RIGHT?
 NICK: THERE YOU GO.
 DONNA: RIGHT.
GET STRONGER, GET BACK
ON MY FEET.
 NICK: HOW'S YOUR THERAPY
GOING?
 DONNA: OH, THE THERAPIST SAYS
THAT I'M OVERDOING IT,
AND I DON'T THINK I'M PUSHING
HARD ENOUGH.
SO -- THANK YOU --
SINCE YOU OFFERED TO HELP --
 NICK: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
YOUR THERAPIST SAYS YOU'RE
PUSHING HARD ENOUGH AS IT IS,
RIGHT?
 DONNA: NICK,
I WANT TO HELP MY FAMILY.
THEY NEED ME.
AND I'M USELESS IN THIS
WHEELCHAIR.
YOU -- PLEASE.
 NICK: WELL, IF DETERMINATION
WAS THE FIRST STEP TO
RECOVERY --
 DONNA: I DON'T KNOW HOW
TO EXPLAIN THIS.
THERE'S JUST SOMETHING THAT'S
MISSING.
IT'S JUST AS IF A PART
OF MY LIFE HAS VANISHED.
 NICK: IT'S PROBABLY
BECAUSE VICKY'S MISSING.
CONSIDERING EVERYTHING YOU'VE
BEEN THROUGH, ALL YOU'RE TRYING
TO GET BACK --
 DONNA: NO, IT'S NOT
A PHYSICAL THING.
IT'S SOMETHING ELSE.
 NICK: IT WILL ALL COME BACK,
STRONGER AND BETTER.
 DONNA: MAYBE.
MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.
IT'S JUST THAT THE MORE I THINK
ABOUT IT, THE FURTHER AWAY IT
GETS.
OH.
OK.
OK.
THAT'S IT.
LET'S JUST TALK ABOUT SOMETHING
ELSE.
LET'S -- LET'S TALK ABOUT
SOMETHING FUN.
 NICK: OK, LIKE WHAT?
 DONNA: LIKE YOU,
YOUR PERSONAL LIFE.
AND I KNOW THAT I'M NOSY,
BUT THAT'S MY STOCK-IN-TRADE.
SO TELL ME ABOUT REMY.
HOW IS IT GOING WITH REMY?
 NICK: I WISH I KNEW.

 TITO: WE COULD NOT HAVE
PICKED AN EASIER MARK THAN
YOUR BOYFRIEND THERE, SUGAR POP.
 REMY: YEAH, MAJOR COUP.
HELLO!
I AM TRYING TO BREATHE HERE!
 TITO: HEY, WHAT GIVES, BABY?
OW!
 REMY: SECONDHAND SMOKING
KILLS PEOPLE.
 TITO: YEAH, SO DOES STEPPING
IN FRONT OF A BUS, OR FALLING
FOR THE MARK -- OR THINKING THAT
THIS IS YOUR LIFE.
THIS IS NOT YOUR LIFE, PEACHES.
YOU KNOW, YOU START LIVING THIS
LARGE LIFESTYLE, ONE DAY YOU'RE
GOING TO WAKE UP BELIEVING
YOUR OWN BULL.
 REMY: YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
THESE PEOPLE.
 TITO: NO, I DON'T EVEN KNOW
THESE PEOPLE.
I DON'T WANT TO KNOW THESE
PEOPLE.
 REMY: IT HAS TAKEN ME SO MUCH
TO GET THEM TO TRUST ME.
AND NOW, TITO, THEY DO.
THEY TRUST ME.
 TITO: WELL, GOOD, HONEY.
THAT'LL JUST MAKE THEM THAT MUCH
EASIER TO PLUCK.
 REMY: THEY DON'T
DESERVE THIS.
 TITO: "DESERVE"?
 "DESERVE"?
DID YOU DESERVE THE HAND YOU GOT
DEALT?
DID I DESERVE MY HAND? NO.
NO ONE DESERVES THEIR LIFE,
HONEY, OK?
WE'RE JUST EVENING UP THE SCORE.
 REMY: YEAH, BUT, NICK --
 TITO: NICK'S A GOOD EXAMPLE,
ALL RIGHT.
WHAT DID FLEX EVER DO TO DESERVE
HIS CASH?
HE GOT BORN TO THE RIGHT WOMAN
WHO MET THE RIGHT MAN.
THAT'S IT.
THAT'S MORE THAN YOU OR I EVER
GOT.
 REMY: I DON'T -- I DON'T KNOW
IF I CAN DO THIS.
 TITO: OH, I DO.
I KNOW YOU CAN DO THIS.
AND YOU WILL DO IT,
BECAUSE YOU'RE A PRO, DOE EYES.
I SAW THE WAY YOU WERE WORKING
HIM.
YOU KNOW, WE GOT A LOT
OF HISTORY, YOU AND ME.
WE GO BACK
AN AWFUL LONG WAY.
 REMY: HOW CAN I FORGET?
YOU KEEP REMINDING ME.
 TITO: YEAH.
WELL, YOU KNOW ME.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW ME WELL ENOUGH
TO KNOW WHAT I'LL DO
IF I THINK YOU'RE TRYING TO BLOW
THIS FOR ME.
 REMY: YOU'RE HURTING ME,
TITO.
 TITO: ONE WORD FROM ME,
AND NONE OF YOUR PRETTY,
SHINY, NEW FRIENDS WILL LET
YOU PICK GARBAGE OUT
OF THEIR DUMPSTERS.
SO THE WAY I SEE IT, YOU GOT
A CHOICE.
YOU GOT ME --
 REMY: OW.
 TITO: OR YOU GOT NOTHING.

 LILA: OH, MATT, WHAT'S WRONG?
IS JASMINE ALL RIGHT?
 MATT: YEAH, SHE'S UPSTAIRS
SLEEPING.
 LILA: THEN WHY DO YOU LOOK
SO WORRIED?
 MATT: WHAT?
 LILA: WELL, YOU KNOW,
YOU ALWAYS RUB YOUR HEAD LIKE
THAT WHEN YOU'RE UPSET
AND WORRIED.
 MATT: CAMERON CAME
BY WITH HIS PROGRESS REPORT
ABOUT THE CORY MONEY TRAIL.
 LILA: OH.
ANY LUCK?
 MATT: NOT SO FAR.
MOM SURE COULD USE SOME GOOD
NEWS AFTER THOSE INVESTORS
DROPPED OUT.
I'LL TELL YOU, LILA,
IT'S GETTING TO HER.
I CAN SEE IT.
 LILA: OH, COME ON NOW.
IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT RACHEL,
COME ON, SHE'S THE LAST PERSON
ON EARTH I'D FRET ABOUT.
 MATT: LOOK, I KNOW SHE IS
STRONG, BUT SHE IS WORRIED ABOUT
THE FUTURE AS MUCH AS ANYONE
ELSE.
 LILA: IF ANYONE CAN PULL THIS
COMPANY TOGETHER, IT'S HER.
 MATT: YEAH, WELL, YOU CAN
ONLY RUN ON FAITH FOR SO LONG.
 LILA: NO, YOU CAN'T.
YOU CAN RUN ON FAITH
FOR A LIFETIME.
BESIDES, THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY
INVESTORS IN THE WORLD.
 MATT: OH, YEAH?
WHAT MAKES YOU SO SURE?
 LILA: WOMEN'S INTUITION.
 RACHEL: MATTHEW?
 MATT: YEAH?
 RACHEL: YOU WON'T BELIEVE
THIS.
I'M NOT SURE I BELIEVE IT,
EITHER.
 MATT: WHAT? WHAT IS IT?
WHAT'S WRONG?
 RACHEL: WE'RE BACK
IN THE GAME.
 LILA: OH, YOU'RE KIDDING!
 RACHEL: YEAH.
 LILA: OH, THAT'S SO GREAT!
 RACHEL: AN INVESTOR WITH COLD
FEET PUT ME ON TO AN INVESTOR
WITH WARMER FEET AND DEEPER
POCKETS.
 MATT: AND HE WANTS TO INVEST?
 RACHEL: MORE IMPORTANTLY,
HE WANTS TO INVEST IN "BRAVA."
 LILA: OH!
 MATT: WOW.

 DONNA: I THOUGHT THINGS WERE
GOING OK WITH YOU AND REMY.
 NICK: SO DID I.
 DONNA: WHAT HAPPENED?
 NICK: WELL, I THINK I TOLD
YOU THAT SHE HAD THIS KIND
OF SECRETIVE SIDE, RIGHT?
 DONNA: RIGHT.
 NICK: ESPECIALLY WHEN
WE FIRST STARTED TO GET TO KNOW
EACH OTHER.
 DONNA: I REMEMBER THAT.
 NICK: WELL, IT TURNS OUT THAT
THIS WAS JUST THE TIP OF THE OLD
ICEBERG.
SHE CAME TO BAY CITY TO RUN
A CON GAME ON ME.
 DONNA: A CON GAME?
THAT SWEET, LITTLE GIRL?
 NICK: IT'S NOT LIKE THAT.
SHE CONFESSED, OK?
 DONNA: NICK, DARLING, I DON'T
MEAN TO BE SOUNDING LIKE
YOUR MOTHER, BUT I AM A MOTHER,
AND I --
 NICK: I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE
GOING TO SAY, DONNA,
BUT SHE DIDN'T EXPECT
FORGIVENESS.
SHE EXPECTED ME TO DUMP HER.
SHE TOOK A BIG CHANCE TELLING ME
THE TRUTH, AND I WAS IMPRESSED.
MADE ME TRUST HER MORE,
NOT LESS.
 DONNA: SO IS THIS
WITH OR WITHOUT THE BENEFIT
OF THE BLINDNESS OF LOVE?
 NICK: WE'RE FRIENDS.
 DONNA: FRIENDS?
 NICK: VERY FRIENDLY FRIENDS.
 DONNA: AH.
 NICK: AND IT DOESN'T MATTER
TO ME THAT SHE'S NOT SQUEAKY
CLEAN, DONNA.
I MEAN, SHE'S BEEN --
IT'S BEEN TOUGH -- YOU KNOW,
NO FAMILY, GROUP HOME.
 DONNA: RIGHT.
THAT WOULD GIVE HER A CERTAIN
AMOUNT OF CHARACTER.
 NICK: DO YOU WANT TO KNOW
WHAT I LIKE BEST ABOUT HER?
 DONNA: WHAT?
 NICK: SHE IS UNLIKE ANYONE
I'VE EVER MET IN MY LIFE.
 DONNA: HMM.
 NICK: SHE'S COMPLICATED.
 DONNA: MM-HMM.
 NICK: JUST WHEN YOU THINK
YOU GOT THE WHOLE PICTURE,
YOU KNOW THE RULES,
ALL OF A SUDDEN --
 DONNA: THERE COMES ANOTHER
LAYER.
 NICK: AND YOU KNOW IT'S NOT
GOING TO BE THE LAST LAYER.
YOU KNOW THERE'S MORE.
 DONNA: WHEN I FIRST MARRIED
YOUR FATHER, THE FIRST TIME,
HE TAUGHT ME SOMETHING --
ACTUALLY, THE SECOND
AND THE THIRD TIME --
THAT THERE'S NOTHING MORE
ATTRACTIVE THAN A HINT
OF MYSTERY ABOUT A WOMAN.
 NICK: WELL, A HINT I COULD
TAKE.
IT'S WHEN I GET THE FEELING
HER SECRETS MIGHT BE DANGEROUS,
I GET NERVOUS.
 DONNA: DO YOU REALLY CARE
ABOUT THIS GIRL?
 NICK: YEAH.
 DONNA: OK.
THEN YOU'VE GOT TO GET
HER TO TELL THE TRUTH.
IF IT'S IMPORTANT, SHE HAS
TO TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH
OR NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.
AND IF SHE'S NOT WILLING TO DO
THAT, IT'S TIME FOR HER TO HIT
THE ROAD.

 TITO: IT'S YOUR CHOICE,
PEACHES.
 REMY: NO, IT'S YOUR CHOICE.
EITHER YOU LET GO OF MY ARM,
OR I WILL SNAP IT IN TWO.
I MEAN IT, TITO.
 TITO: OH, YEAH?
 REMY: OW!
 TITO: I GUESS YOU'RE NOT
AS SOFT AS YOU LOOK.
 REMY: IF YOU --
 TITO: BUT THAT'S GOOD,
THAT'S GOOD, THAT'S GOOD.
I LIKE THAT.
 REMY: IF YOU EVER THREATEN
ME AGAIN --
 TITO: THREATEN YOU?
HONEY, ME THREATEN YOU?
WHY WOULD I DO THAT?
HONEY, I'M CONGRATULATING YOU.
I SAW THE WAY YOU WERE WORKING
NICK HUDSON LIKE A PRO.
[ENGLISH ACCENT]
OH, THAT REMY WOODS,
SHE'S A FOXY LITTLE ONE.
[NORMAL VOICE]
AND I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU WORK,
HONEY.
 REMY: NO, YOU DON'T KNOW ME
AS WELL AS YOU USED TO.
 TITO: AH, AH, AH.
[IMITATES FOGHORN LEGHORN]
I SAY -- I SAY HOLD UP THERE,
BOY.
[NORMAL VOICE]
I KNOW YOU BETTER THAN YOU KNOW
YOURSELF.
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING
RIGHT NOW.
YOU'RE THINKING, "HMM, IF I GET
ME ONE OF THOSE NICE,
LITTLE RICH BOYS, MAYBE THAT'LL
MAKE ME JUST LIKE ALL THE SHINY,
NICE PEOPLE."
NO, NO.
MAYBE YOU'RE THINKING,
"MAYBE IF TITO DISAPPEARS,
MY DIRTY, LITTLE PAST WILL
DISAPPEAR WITH HIM."
 REMY: NO, I WAS NOT THINKING
THAT.
 TITO: DON'T TELL ME WHAT
YOU WERE THINKING.
ALL YOUR NEW, SHINY FRIENDS?
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO DON'T KNOW
JACK, OK?
IT'S LIKE THAT GIRL OVER
AT THE RESTAURANT.
 REMY: WHAT GIRL?
 TITO: WITH THE BIG,
BLUE EYES, THE LEGS?
BLOND? RUNS THE JOINT?
MISS THANG?
SHE'S A DEAD RINGER
FOR MISS DUMPSTER THERE.
MOTHER DEAREST DUMPSTER.
 REMY: NO, SHE IS SO NOT LIKE
MRS. DEMPSEY.
 TITO: UH, HELLO.
GROUP HOME NUMBER ONE.
 REMY: YEAH, I REMEMBER --
PRACTICE FOR PURGATORY.
 TITO: HEY, LITTLE RESPECT,
PLEASE.
YOU KNOW, IT'S WHERE IT ALL
BEGAN.
OK.
 REMY: DEMPSEY THE DUMPSTER.
GOD, I -- I HAVEN'T THOUGHT
ABOUT HER FOR A LONG TIME.
SHE WENT FROM, LIKE, MODEL MOM
TO PRISON GUARD ALL
BECAUSE OF ONE LITTLE
INFRACTION.
 TITO: WELL, THAT'S ALL IT
TAKES, HONEY.
 YOU GOT BUSTED
YOU GOT BUSTED
YOU GOT BUSTED 
HEY, WHO GOT YOU OUT OF THAT
ONE, ANYWAY?
 REMY: YEAH, I GUESS IF IT
WASN'T FOR YOU, I'D STILL BE
ON PROBATION.
 TITO: YEAH.
WELL, IT WASN'T THAT BAD --
I MEAN, OUR GREAT ESCAPE
FROM DUMPSTERVILLE.
[ENGLISH ACCENT]
LIVING ON THE LAND, LIVING OFF
THE FAT OF THE LAND.
[NORMAL VOICE]
YOU KNOW, ANSWERING TO NO LAW.
WAS KIND OF FUN, ACTUALLY --
THANKS TO THAT 300 BUCKS
WE SCRAPED OFF HER IDIOT
HUSBAND.
 REMY: $300.
I -- I FELT LIKE A MOVIE STAR.
 TITO: HMM.
 REMY: I FELT LIKE I WAS
LIVING SOME KIND OF LIFE THERE.
 TITO: YEAH.
WELL, WE WERE HAPPY.
YOU KNOW WHY WE WERE HAPPY?
BECAUSE WE KNEW WHO WE WERE
AND WE DIDN'T MAKE ANY APOLOGIES
FOR IT.
I THINK YOU GOT TO KEEP THAT.
YOU GOT TO KNOW WHO WE ARE,
AND YOU GOT TO KNOW WHO
THEY ARE.
 REMY: NO, BUT --
 TITO: YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE.
REMEMBER WHY YOU'RE HERE.
REMEMBER HOW GOOD IT FELT THAT
FIRST TIME WE SCAMMED DUMPSTER?
WHOO! WE WERE KINGS.
[IMITATES HUMPHREY BOGART]
AND IF WE PULL THIS ONE OFF,
SWEETHEART, YOU'LL NEVER HAVE
TO WORK AGAIN.
[NORMAL VOICE]
NO MORE BEG, BORROW, STEAL.
YOU DON'T ANSWER TO ANYBODY.
 REMY: YEAH, BUT
MAYBE THERE'S JUST SOME OTHER
MAYBE THERE'S JUST SOME OTHER
WAY WE CAN --
 TITO: NO, NO, NO.
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY --
NOT FOR US.
THIS IS OUR WAY.
AND IF YOU START TRYING
TO CONVINCE YOURSELF OTHERWISE,
YOU'RE CONNING THE ONLY PERSON
YOU CAN'T FOOL.
YOU'RE CONNING YOURSELF, HONEY.

 RACHEL: I HAVE TO CALL AMANDA
AND TELL HER WE'RE BACK
IN THE GAME.
 MATT: YES, BUT WAIT -- WHAT
DO WE KNOW ABOUT THESE NEW MONEY
GUYS?
 RACHEL: ENOUGH.
THEY'RE LEGITIMATE BUSINESSMEN
AND THEY WANT TO INVEST.
THAT'S ENOUGH FOR ME.
WHO KNOWS?
 LILA: MATT, WHY ARE
YOU SO SUSPICIOUS?
 MATT: BECAUSE.
BECAUSE I WANT TO KNOW WHAT
THEY EXPECT WITH THEIR
INVESTMENT.
EDITORIAL INPUT?
WHAT ABOUT AMANDA?
AND THEN THERE'S THE --
 RACHEL: HEY, LISTEN,
THAT'S WHAT CONTRACTS ARE FOR.
WE'LL MAKE IT VERY CLEAR IT'S
AMANDA'S BABY.
 MATT: BUT WHAT IF THEY DON'T
AGREE TO THAT PROVISO?
 RACHEL: NO, I'LL CALL BACK.
THANK YOU.
 LILA: MATT, OF COURSE THEY'LL
AGREE TO IT.
THEY'RE INVESTORS.
ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS INVEST,
RIGHT?
 RACHEL: WELL, NO, HE'S RIGHT.
IT'S HUMAN NATURE TO DISAGREE.
 MATT: BUT LET'S JUST MAKE
SURE THAT THEY'RE ON
THE UP-AND-UP.
 RACHEL: YES. OK.
I'LL HAVE CASS GO THROUGH
THE CONTRACT WITH A FINE-TOOTH
COMB.
YOU SATISFIED?
 MATT: YES, BUT IT IS A BIG
RISK.
NOW, EVERYTHING HAS JUST
HAPPENED TO BE FALLING
INTO PLACE.
 RACHEL: I KNOW, BUT JUST
SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO GO
WITH IT.
 LILA: THAT'S WHAT I ALWAYS
SAY.
YOU'VE GOT TO RISK BIG TO WIN
BIG.
 MATT: BUT PROMISE ME YOU'LL
CHECK THESE GUYS OUT?
 RACHEL: I WILL, I WILL.
I'LL REDO MY HOMEWORK.
BUT I'M TELLING YOU, I THINK
THEY'RE LEGIT -- AND IF THEY'RE
LEGIT AND THEY WANT TO INVEST,
IT'S A DONE DEAL.

 CHRIS: SO, AMANDA, NOT THAT
WE DON'T MISS YOU TERRIBLY,
BUT ARE YOU EVER COMING BACK

BUSINESS.
 AMANDA: THERE'S DANGEROUS
PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.
COME ON, DON'T YOU TRUST ME?
 CAMERON: YOU I TRUST.
IT'S THE REST OF THE WORLD
I HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH.
 AMANDA: YOU KNOW, I ACTUALLY
COULD USE YOUR HELP.
 CAMERON: WHAT, MY EXCEPTIONAL
WRITING TALENTS AGAIN?
 AMANDA: YOUR EXCEPTIONAL
P.I. TALENTS.
WE'VE ALREADY PROVEN
TO EVERYBODY THAT WE MAKE
A GREAT COUPLE, SO WHY NOT
AN ENCORE?
ARE YOU READY TO CONVINCE PEOPLE
THAT WE'RE DYING TO ADOPT
A BABY?
 CHRIS: OOH.
SOUNDS LIKE A NEW WINNER TO ME.
YOU KNOW IF YOU SAY NO,
SHE'S JUST GOING TO FIND A WAY
TO DO IT WITH SOMEBODY ELSE.
 TONI: HE'S RIGHT.
 CHRIS: I THINK WE ARE OUT
OF THERE.
 AMANDA: BYE.
 CHRIS and TONI: BYE.
 CAMERON: SO LONG.
 AMANDA: SO?
THERE'S NO REASON WE SHOULDN'T
DO THIS AGAIN.
IS THERE?

 TITO: WHERE YOU GOING?
WHERE YOU GOING?
 REMY: I HAVE TO CHECK

 TITO: AH.
 WOMAN'S VOICE: MEET TODAY,

BLUE COAT, FLORAL SCARF.
 TITO: GOT A DATE

 REMY: NO.
NO, I GOT A BABYSITTING GIG.
 TITO: SOMEONE'S LETTING
YOU WATCH THEIR CHILDREN?
 REMY: HEY, I LIKE KIDS.
 TITO: WELL, SUIT YOURSELF.
 REMY: I'M GOING TO BE GONE
FOR A COUPLE HOURS.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU CAN LEAVE WHENEVER YOU WANT.
 TITO: OK, I'LL MAKE A NOTE
OF THAT.
LATER!
OR MAYBE SOONER.

 AMANDA: YOU DO WANT TO DO
THIS, DON'T YOU?
 CAMERON: SURE.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU, RIGHT?
 AMANDA: YEAH.
 CAMERON: IS IT
MORE IMPORTANT THAN KEY WEST?
YOU, ME?

ALL ALONE, IN BED?
 AMANDA: WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
IT ALL.
DON'T YOU WORRY.
YOU'LL SEE.
WE'RE GOING TO MAKE ALL

 JOE: HEY, GORGEOUS.
 PAULINA: JOE.
 JOE: HI, HON.
 PAULINA: HI.
OH, HONEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING

 JOE: HAD TO DOUBLE-CHECK

 PAULINA: HUH?
 JOE: HMM?
 PAULINA: NO.
NO, ACTUALLY, HE CALLED AND LEFT
A MESSAGE THAT HE TOOK
A DIFFERENT FLIGHT, TOOK HIM OUT

 JOE: COOL?
 PAULINA: YEAH.
 JOE: TODAY'S YOUR LUCKY DAY.
 PAULINA: YEAH.
