All language subtitles for Melrose Place s07e04 Ball N Jane

You know, you can leave your stereo
system with Megan. I got a great one at

place. I mean, our place.

Just bunk in there. Try to remember
that, okay? Oh, you know, that reminds

We should get you an elegant bed to
sleep in instead of that lumpy old pull

house. Listen to me. I don't want to get
too comfortable there. And we're not

spending a penny of your father's
bequest.

Because when I divorce you, I plan on
being a very wealthy man.

Oh, bye, sweetheart.

See you after work.

Yeah.

Don't wait up.

Well, you two are pretty friendly.

Well, we should be. We got married last
night.

You what?

Yeah. We've committed to each other,
Peter.

Coop, come home.

Thank God your sorry butt moved out.
Make room for a real man to move in.

I bail you out of jail. I try to be
there for you.

You're changing.

It's not very attractive.

I think I've become a little bit more
focused ever since you shared with me

special little feelings for Amanda.

Get used to it, Peter, because I'm not
going to be stepped on anymore, not by

you, not by my father, not by Coop, not
by anyone.

You need to sign these insurance forms
so I can get them out today.

Sure. We still on for tonight?

Oh, I don't think so. Something's come
up.

What's her name?

Um, it's not anybody, right? I just have
to get some things done.

You know, you come on to me. You imply
advancement at the job.

I put out and you cut me off.

Some people might call that actionable
sexual harassment.

I'll work that out later. I gotta go.

I could page him if you'd like. No, no,
no. Nurse, nurse, I'll handle this.

Oh, Megan.

You look awful.

I...

Talked to Lexi this morning. She told me
she married Coop last night. You must

be a wreck.

No, I'm fine, really.

I mean, that rat, after all that bold
talk about being through with Lexi.

I knew he was no good for you.

You know what, Michael? I really don't
want to talk about this right now, okay?

Okay, no pressure, okay. Look, just want
you to know I'm here whenever you need

comfort or joy.

Look, forget it, Michael. Coop or no
Coop, we're never getting back together.

were never meant to be together in the
first place, okay? Why don't you just

start your fabulous career with women
all over again, okay?

Oh, Coop.

Congratulations on your marriage.

Too bad you had to trash Megan to do it.
Shut up, Michael.

Can I walk with you for a second,
please?

Oh,

God, I missed you so much.

Not only do you spend the night with
Lexi...

But you take the ring that you gave me
and you give it to her. How do you think

that makes me feel, huh? Let's say used,
discarded, maybe a little less than

worthless. What was I supposed to do?

Jordan's standing there watching. I
needed a wedding band.

I mean, it's not like I can wear two
rings at once, you know, yours and hers.

Yeah, well, it might as well have come
out of a Cracker Jack box the way you

just passed it around.

Come on, Megan.

You're the only one I love. You know
that.

You gotta know that.

How are we gonna do this?

Only 364 more nights apart.

Well, it's, uh, not night right now.

And I, um, I have a little free time.

Poo poo poo!

I've been waiting to ask you something.
Your heart won't ignore.

Your heart won't ignore.

Maybe this time you'll come my way when
I hear your name

and I start to dance with a note on the
floor.

Give me...

I see this on the right -hand side of
the magazine. Then we turn the page and

what you see is what you get.

This was excellent.

I'm most impressed.

Thank you, Giorgio.

We're all very proud of how it's turned
out.

And Billy, I understand, was the lead
man in the campaign?

Very nice.

Mille grazie.

Thanks. We had a good time with it.
We're looking forward to your next

Actually, our office in Rome is
expanding.

We plan to do our advertising in -house
from now on. And sadly, Amanda has

refused my offer to come to Italy to
join the firm.

But Billy, perhaps...

You could come to lunch with me and give
me your thoughts on our winter

campaign. Well, I'm sure we can survive
without him for a couple of hours.

Thank you.

Sure, let's go.

Ciao. Ciao.

Oh, that does it. You know, I bet he's
going to offer Billy the job in Rome.

It's so unfair. I did as much work as he
did. You did the art. Billy ran the

show. Oh, I don't... I don't get why
everything is just so rosy for him all

sudden. He had an affair just like I
did. He's not standing on any moral high

ground. And now job offers are just
dropping into his lap. And Jennifer

wait on him like a house slave. He's
paid his dues.

You know, if you want my opinion, you
need to learn some patience.

Patience takes too long.

Look, I'll tell you what. I don't really
want Billy to go to Rome. I want him to

stay here.

But if Giorgio is open to it, how would
you like to go instead of Billy?

I would love it.

Can you fix it?

I'll just tell Giorgio how key you were
on the ad.

And maybe undercut Billy just enough to
give me an edge.

Maybe. But the rest is up to you. The
rest is just good advertising.

Hey, Michael, where are you going? Why
are you second?

I took my patients to Coupa and I'm off
to Chicago for my college reunion.

I thought you threw that invitation away
as soon as you got it.

You said, and I quote... Those idiots
were losers then, and they're even

losers now.

They were and they are, and that's why
I'm going.

To remind them how sorry they are they
don't see me anymore.

Hmm. Nice to be admired.

Hey, it sounds like fun.

I'll come with.

Hell, you will.

But, Mikey, I want to see your humble
beginning.

I was born this way, okay?

Now, be a good girl and stop asking
questions and let me pack. I'm not

questions.

Hey, who are you really going to see in
Chicago?

There you go. More questions.

Taylor, you're probably too pregnant to
travel anyway.

Not that delicate.

No, but you'll probably throw the
plane's balance out of whack. That is

of our discussion.

I'm going alone.

You're late.

What do you think of dreams?

I think they're the secret language of
the soul.

Why do you ask?

Dream about Amanda.

She comes by the apartment to pick up
the rent check.

And she's dressed in this hot red dress.
Very sexy.

And I offer some wine.

And I embrace her.

She resists me.

But then I get physically assertive.

And excites her.

And she ravishes me.

We call that wish fulfillment.

I don't know. It's like we're on the
same wavelength. Like I can sense what

really wants me to do, not what she says
she wants.

Of course, in reality, it's not possible
to read people's minds.

So you have to respect what they say.

Right, Peter?

I'm not delusional, you know. No, but I
wouldn't take a professional off the

table. Why? Because I moved back into
Amanda's apartment building?

Because I want what I want and I'm
willing to go after it? Because I can

on what's meaningful to me and not lose
sight of it, not give up on it, and not

fall apart at the first obstacle that
gets in my way?

Peter, remember when I loaned you my
cabin in the woods to go deep inside

yourself? And I told you not to go to a
party resort?

Well, I think the time has come for the
party resort.

Peter, I think you've gone too deep.

It's funny how clear it looks down here.

Hey, you look great.

Why did you get so dressed up? We're
just going to have pizza. Oh, God. I'm

sorry. I have to cancel.

I have this business dinner that just
came up.

I'm really excited.

I might get to go to Italy.

Really? On assignment?

No, we're good.

That's what this business dinner is.
It's a job interview.

Italy? Yeah.

Where would that leave me?

Well, I'm sure you would like it there,
and you could come visit, and then

maybe... Wait a minute.

When were you planning on telling me all
this?

I just did.

Listen, I don't have time for this.

I know a little bit about a lot of
things, but I don't know enough about

Just when I think you're mine, you try a
different life. So Giorgio took me to

lunch. Basically, the Rome job is
between me and a couple other guys.

This is so exciting, Billy.

Yeah, that he found me to have a
maturity beyond my years.

Guess he wasn't fooled by your boyish
good looks.

Can you imagine? We're talking Italy.

I could speak Italian, you know.

Yeah, that's nice.

Well, I gotta get back to the office so
I can put together a resume.

So I can help you, mio amore.

All right, I'll see you at home.

Ciao.

Hey,

what's the matter? You look like you
lost your best friend.

No, I'm just afraid I'm about to.

That's married life, Trudy.

I think I'm getting the hang of it.

Actually, it's come back pretty fast.

It's like falling off a bicycle. Yeah,
but this time we're going to lick each

other's wounds.

Ooh, Lexi.

I think your father may have known what
he was doing, putting the suit you back

together again like this. Well, Tom had
some pretty strange ideas.

I sure knew what I liked. Sex and money?

All wrapped up into one cute little
package.

Yeah, it's just a cute little couple.
Yeah.

Oh, my!

God, oh, gee, oh. Sorry, that was
completely my fault.

Yes, it was.

Excuse me, I gotta go to the bathroom
and clean up.

I think you missed a little spot there.

Oh, no, I didn't miss a thing.

Michael? Michael Mancini!

Hey, hey, it's me!

Herb Suckus!

Ate a chai pie?

Oh, yeah, yeah, the chai pies. How's it
hanging?

I couldn't be better. I sold more rugs
than anyone in the state this year.

Really? You must be one hot carpet
salesman.

No, not carpets. Toupees!

Oh, hey, here's my wife, Faye. My little
Georgia peach, remember her?

Here you go, honey. I made the gum. Just
the way you like it.

Hey, Faye, you remember this? Yeah.

Michael, how are you?

I'm sensational.

And it's very good to see you again.

Er, showing pictures of the kids. Oh,
yeah.

You must have quite a family yourself
now, Michael. Oh, yeah. I bet you

Jane, boom, right after graduation, just
like us, huh?

First love, true love, hmm? Am I right?
Actually, that didn't work out, and then

my next two wives died.

Um...

So are you going to give me a hug?

Jane, you look great.

Well, you're not so bad yourself.

So did you just come in for the reunion?

Oh, I was in town for a big medical
conference.

But, you know, I just stopped by for the
moment.

Well, it's good to see you.

How have you been?

Well, you know, business has been
booming. You know, I was the chief of

the hospital.

Some bigger opportunities came along,
like buying and selling medical clinics.

Wow. Yeah. Unfortunately, it hasn't left
much time for a love life. So, you

know, kind of sworn off woman this year.

I'm living alone at the beach.

How are you doing?

Oh, actually, I'm house -sitting for my
parents. They're out of town.

No, I meant, how's your life going?

Oh.

Oh, it's terrific. I'm working for a
clothing design firm on the north side.

I've got a really interesting bunch of
new friends, kind of an artsy crowd.

Yeah, things are really coming together.

So, listen, do you want to take yourself
away from these fascinating alumni and

maybe get ourselves a drink?

Oh, no, no, I don't think... No, no, no,
just the hotel bar.

Scout's honor, I won't try to get you
back up into my room.

Really, I should get going. No, no, no,
how about tomorrow night, then?

I'll pick up your folks, please. No, no,
uh...

Tomorrow's the pre -wedding party.

Wedding? Yeah.

It's in a few days.

Really? Who's getting married?

I am.

Oh, my. Rick, that's great.

Congratulations.

Thank you. He's a great guy. He's very,
very successful, very loving. I'm really

happy. It's really great to see you
wilting away here in Chicago.

Oh, hardly. Listen, I've got to get
going. I've got a million things to do

get ready. Oh, yeah, you must.
Absolutely.

Well, you must be very happy, and I'm
very happy for you. Thanks.

So, well, I guess I'll see you around
then.

Yeah, catch you at the next reunion.

Yeah, right.

Bye.

Hello. Your service said you were in
Chicago, Michael. What are you doing in

Chicago?

Jennifer, why is this any of your
business?

All right, whatever. Don't jump down my
throat. Listen, I need your advice about

something. Uh -huh.

Um, Billy got offered this job in Italy,
and he didn't ask me to go with him,

and I feel terrible about it, but I'm
gonna be damned if I'm gonna beg him to

take me, you know? And then I was
thinking, well, maybe I should just show

my own, but what kind of idiot would do
that, you know? So I don't know what to

do. Well, if he didn't ask you to go
right away, that's like a big red flag.

It means he doesn't want you to go, and
he's not saying that loud and clear.

So I dumped his creep before it's too
obvious he dumped you.

But I still love him.

Oh, love is just an arrangement, kiddo.
You gotta learn when it's time to move

the furniture.

God, you make it sound so cold, Michael.

It's just realistic.

Listen, take me for example.

I ran into Jane yesterday.

It didn't make me suddenly wonder what
if, or... You saw Jane in Chicago?

How is she?

Oh, I loved her. I wish you guys had
stuck it out.

Oh, calm down, girl. She's getting
married.

Well, stop her, you moron.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about what a weenie you are
if you went all that way to see her

and... That's not why I went.

And you're just gonna let her slip
through your fingers again?

True love doesn't happen all that often,
Michael.

You can't just walk away.

Oh, yeah? Just watch me.

Look, I'm glad I could help you out with
this Billy thing, and I'll see you when

I get home.

Hi. Hi.

Yeah, I just came by to let you know
that... Oh, I'm so glad that you came

I just tried to call you and you weren't
home.

I need to apologize. I'm sorry that I
forgot about our date and I didn't tell

you about Italy.

Look, Sam, I'm tired of all the head
games.

Hey, you're obviously trying to put some
distance between us. You're right. That

is what I'm trying to do.

I promise I'm going to work harder.
Whatever. I just stopped by to tell you

now that my knee is useless, I'm going
to go for a career in sportscasting.

It's something I know and it's something
that I can support a family on.

Because despite everything that's
happened, I'm still doing this for us.

I don't know what to say.

Well, don't say anything.

I'm leaving town for some job interviews
back east. Give you some time to think

about it.

I still want to marry you.

I just won't be made a fool of anymore.

So, uh, when you come to your senses,
I'll be here.

Not forever.

Everything all right?

I found out today that Sam's trying to
steal Georgia's job right out from under

me.

She can't match your credentials, right?

I don't think she doesn't have to. Guy
saw them at the dinner last night and

said Sam was practically spitting in his
lap.

Yeah, well, I'm sure he'd never fall for
a trick like that, right?

I mean, he's probably a family man, and
men like that would never fool around

with babes on the prowl.

You know what? That's an idea.

We could do, like, a big family -style
Italian dinner for the guy. You know,

could cook. You're a good cook, like
your mom. Huh?

Yeah.

We will fight fire with pasta.

You want me to wear a sexy dress?

No, you look okay.

Oh.

I look okay.

God, that is so gratifying.

Okay, um, we will start with an
antipasto.

I do an okay antipasto.

And then maybe a nice manicotti.

The okay girl doing a nice manicotti.
What is the matter? Why are you crying?

I'm just going to be so sad when you go
to Rome.

I'm going to miss you much more than any
of the other guys that ever told me.

Miss me?

Aren't you coming with me?

I don't know.

You never invited me.

Well, I just assumed.

You assumed?

Billy, you never said anything.

I thought that you were done with me. I
thought that you hated me.

Are you nuts? I love you. Of course I
want you to come with me. I'm counting

it. Oh, you're counting on me coming?
Like, you're just assuming that I want

go? What if I don't want to go, Billy?

Well, do you or don't you?

Yes, I do.

Oh, God.

Good.

Excuse me.

I'm an old friend of the bride. Do you
know where she is?

There goes the groom. The bride's
usually not too far off. Okay, thanks.

You're not Jane. Who the hell is she?

Who the hell are you?

You bastard.

You're getting married tomorrow.

Michael?

Jane, you can't marry this jerk.

He's not good enough for you. I just
caught him making out with this bimbo.

bimbo happens to be my fiancee.

Clown! Oh, Michael.

What? What does he mean?

Jesus.

There's been a little misunderstanding,
everyone, but it's varying rapidly.

I'll explain later.

Sorry about the door.

Oh, Mike.

This is really embarrassing, Michael.

I'm not getting married.

To that guy?

Good, because, you know, I think he's
involved with this other woman. No, to

guy. I'm giving this party for my
girlfriend's wedding, and I kind of

exaggerated to you last night when I
said it was mine.

I don't understand. Why would you do
that?

Well, um... Seeing you last night was
really hard, Michael. I mean, I came

to see you, and when I did, it sort of
threw me.

I have had this really bad year. I was
giving this party, and I... I

a little.

Or maybe I'm trying to push you away. I
don't know.

Ah, forget it.

Come, let's go for a walk.

Thank God you came.

Oh, I am so sorry about...

No, I'm sorry. I couldn't help myself.
The way Lexi was drooling all over you,

thought I was going to kill her. I could
have sat in a different chair. We still

could have fooled her lawyer.

It's just so hard publicly pretending
that I don't love you anymore.

And that cute couple comment, you got to
understand, I was just trying to

satisfy Jordan while getting Lexi to
back off a little bit. It was a stupid

thing to say, and I... Just shut up and
kiss me.

since high school.

Well, then you're in luck.

That's how I won my letter.

Hi.

I was just passing by and was wondering
if you wanted to give me the rent check.

What? Oh, nothing. I'm sorry. I was
just... I was noticing your dress.

Oh, that's right. This used to be your
favorite, didn't it?

You know, if this is a bad time, I
can... No, no.

No, not at all, actually. It's a perfect
time. Come in. I'm sorry. Would you

like some wine?

No, I don't need any wine. Just the
check will do.

Right, right. Of course. I was just
celebrating moving back in here.

Oh. Well, that's great, but I'm kind of
in a hurry.

Nothing wrong?

No.

No, nothing.

You see, I've... I've seen a dream
before.

You are crazy if you think this is
somehow going to get me back.

Peter! What?

I was just... Doing what I thought that
you wanted. What I want is for you to

drop the check in the mail.

Moving back here was like moving
backwards in time. It was kind of

Yeah. I think about the good old days.
Put the smile on my face.

I remember sneaking you back into your
dormitory after hours. Oh, God. How

that?

You were so beautiful.

You still are. I didn't mean it that
way.

What I think about is moving out to L
.A. and moving into the apartment.

Buying you that cheesy coffee mug with a
picture of L .A. on it. That was my

favorite.

We were so young.

I had the feeling that anything was
possible. Hey, everything was possible.

I was Dr. Norwich. You were designing
fashions. You were living fast and

kids. Those are probably some years we
don't want to revisit, Michael.

You know, Jane, I'm amazed you even like
me anymore.

Oh, I always have.

I guess I always will.

Well, thank you for... Thank you for,
you know, it was nice thinking about

of the good old days, even if some of
them weren't so great. Yes.

Oh, I guess I better go.

Survey the damage.

Yeah. Well,

um, goodbye.

Yeah, bye.

Give me a call sometime.

See how I'm doing?

It's a deal.

Please tell me that this is just office
gossip.

Not only is Sam competing with me, but
you're backing her?

Live with it, Billy. The last thing I
need right now is you traipsing off to

Italy. Oh, you need?

Get this.

I want that foam job, okay? And if you
ruin it for me, I'm out of here.

So what, take your marbles and go home?

This is a business decision. Don't turn
it into a personal vendetta.

It is personal, okay? I... I need to get
out of here.

I want to leave L .A. I want to leave
here with Jennifer.

It's not good for me around here
anymore. I just keep tripping over bad

memories. If you haven't figured this
out yet, let me be the first to spring

on you.

You can't run away from your memories.

You and I have been friends for a long
time.

If that means anything to you, you will
help me here.

I'm in love with somebody, okay?

Do you remember what that's like?

All right, I'll call Giorgio.

You are such a pain.

Thank you.

What?

I've got to talk about Coop and Lexi or
I'm just, I'm going to go nuts.

Oh, it's not really a good time, Megan.
I'm trying to make gnocchi, learn

Italian, and clean the house before
Billy brings Giorgio home for dinner.

Giorgio?

Giorgio e il capo di mio amore.

Yeah, whatever.

So is there anything I can do to help?
Yeah, you can cover for me at the bar

tonight. Okay, if it's okay with Kyle.

You know what? I'm going to come back
and we can talk later.

Hey, Jennifer, it's your big brother.

Look, I'm sorry I was a little out of
line yesterday.

You sounded a little down. I just want
to make sure you're okay.

Oh, that is so sweet, Michael, but I'm
fine, really. In fact, I'm making this

huge dinner for the guy that Billy is
trying to impress, and then we're moving

to Rome.

Rome? Didn't you hear a word I said?

You've got to run from this situation,
Jennifer.

Michael, Billy loves me.

It's not even a word. It's a sound, like
Pavlov's dog drooling at a dinner bell.

This call is quickly losing its charm.

Look, did he give you the big ring?

No, not yet, but I'm sure he will.

Oh, yeah, and I'm sure pigs will fly,
too.

Does that mean you're coming home soon,
Michael?

You bet I am. Tonight, to save you from
your own illusions.

Michael, Billy's feelings for me are
real, and not every man is like you. You

know, guys are guys. They're like
hounds. They just can't help themselves.

The best they can do is not rub your
face in it.

Yeah, like you're doing right now?

Shut up!

Amanda, look, I want to apologize for
the other night. Don't touch me.

I don't want you to talk to me. I don't
even want you to look at me.

So I'm going to make it easy on you.

Your lease is up at the end of the
month. No, no, no. Now listen to me. I

want to tell you. Amanda told me what
happened last night. You're not welcome

here either.

You hang around, you're going to end up
a patient in your own hospital.

What, do you think you scare me?

Huh? You overgrown soldier boy. Excuse
me. Nobody wants a scene here. So if you

don't mind, I think I'll just escort
this gentleman outside.

You're doing him a big favor.

Thank you for getting me out of there.
There's really no match for him in my

present condition.

Honey, you are not a match for him on
the best day of your life.

Well, thanks for your support.

You know, I never thought that you could
actually make me happy again.

But seeing you shot down that way by the
woman you worship.

Oh, sweet, sweet music.

It's funny.

You know, when we were together, I never
saw this part of you.

This must be the woman that was married
to Coop all those years.

Mmm, it smells delicious.

It's so nice to have an appreciative
audience.

You should always appreciate what you
have.

In advertising, more is better.

By life, what is on your table is what
you must love.

Hi.

I hope I'm not late. What are you doing
here?

Well, I was just curious as to why
Amanda was pushing me for Georgia's job,

then all of a sudden she's your biggest
fan. Are you kidding me?

Sam, you don't know the first thing
about running a company. You fall flat

your face, you end up pulling Giorgio
down with you. Is that what this is all

about, winning some imaginary contest
with me?

Hello. Imaginary is very real.

My flight's in an hour. Are you going to
go through with this dinner thing? It's

happening right now, but Sam is gate
-crashing, and the whole thing is

apart, and I don't know what to do,
Michael. All right, put me on

I'll fix everything.

Yeah, what are you going to say?

Oh, what a great exec Billy is, that Sam
should get a grip, and everybody else

should relax and have some Chianti. I'm
sick of you getting... I don't know,

Michael.

Jennifer, come on.

You want me to call Mom, get her
involved?

I promise you, you'd rather have me on
the box than her.

All right.

Um, hey, attention, everybody.

My brother would like to say a few
words. Go ahead, Michael, you are on the

But you listen to me, Campbell.

If you go to Italy, you're not taking my
sister with you. I don't see how this

is any of your business, Mancini. Okay,
Michael, thank you a lot for calling.

No, no, let's hear what he has to say.
I'd like to see the puffed -up phony

exposed for who he is.

Yeah, yeah. And you, Mr.

Honcho from Rome.

Now, I know Billy's a top -notch ad man,
like we need another one of those in

the world, but he happens to be taking
advantage of someone I feel very

about. Advantage taking is perhaps not
such a bad trade in a business, right?

Oh, unless it's being taken by a
businesswoman and then she's a bitch.

not fair.

Look, listen, all I know is personal
life interferes with business dealings.

Now, how long do you think this
relationship is going to last once it

sunny Italy, huh?

You try forever.

Oh, try two seconds.

Oh, hang on a second. It's the bellman.
He's got to bring my luggage downstairs.

Hey, bags are right there. I'll be down
in a second.

Now, now, face it, Jennifer, okay? You
fell for Billy on the rebound.

He's not the kind of guy you want to
spend your life with.

I mean, he's not the kind of guy you can
love and love again.

Even after you both crash and burn and
you dust yourselves off for the 50th

time.

And you're just hanging on the ropes.

And you wake up one morning in a cold
bed.

And your life's missing something. And
you realize you're still thinking about

her after all these years.

I do love you like that.

You marry me.

Yes.

Yes, I will marry you.

I may puke.

Thank you.

Well, I get there, better be going. The
airport limo leaves in ten minutes.

Last night was wonderful, Michael.

Yeah, yeah, it was.

You know, Jane, it'd be a real shame if
we lost touch.

But, you know, I know you're not going
to come near L .A. again.

No, no, I have a life here now.

No, no, yeah, I know.

Of course.

I'm going to miss you, though. I'm going
to miss you, too.

Thank you, Michael, for everything, for
talking and listening.

And hey, don't forget the night of
fantastic sex.

Thank God something's never changed.
Hey, nothing never changes, not even me.

I remember that.

I'll never forget you.

Have a great life.

You deserve it.

I keep thinking Lexi's going to come
home and catch us. Don't worry.

Her plane's not even due back from
Sacramento until noon.

What the hell are

you two doing?

I'd say it's fairly obvious.

What are you doing back so soon?

Oh, my meeting got rescheduled. Decided
to take an earlier flight.

Apparently not early enough.

What do you do, you little tramp? You
tell your mommy that you're sleeping

your girlfriend's house.

Hey, what's the matter with you, Lexi?

This is a marriage of convenience,
remember? Yeah, well, it's not going to

very convenient if we all get thrown in
jail for fraud, is it?

You better get out of here.

Hey, hey, hey, enough.

I love this woman, and we had an
agreement. No, I never agreed to get

in my own home. You know, I'm human. I
do have feelings, too.

You know what? I've had enough of this.

I'm out of here.

Megan, wait. Hey, wait a minute, Coop.
We need to talk about this.

I've got to get out of here. I just
might kill you.

Dr. Burns.

What a pleasure it is to see you. Mr.
Beck, good to see you.

I hope I'm not intruding. No, no, no,
not at all. Please sit down. Can I get

a drink? No, no, no, really, really.

How are you feeling? Are you taking
those meds?

Absolutely.

I feel a thousand percent, thanks to
you.

I just did what doctors do.

No, no, no.

You took my case when all others had
written me off. You saved my life,

That's not something I take lightly.

You know, I didn't get to where I am by
beating around the bush. I could tell

something was on your mind.

Well, you always were a very astute man.

When I got out of surgery, I told you.

If there was ever anything you needed,
anything at all,

all you had to do was ask, and it'd be
done.

Yes, I remember.

Anything, Doctor.

Now, what could I do for you?

There's a woman I know.

She owns an advertising agency.

Well, I'd be glad to do it, Allison.

For old time's sake.

Bye.

That was Allison?

No. Yeah, it was.

I heard you say her name.

What were you talking about?

She's applying for a job and she needed
a recommendation from me.

I thought you already had a pretty good
job.

Well, she lost it.

Allison's been having some adjustment
problems in Atlanta.

How do you know all this?

I know, that's all. How do you know?

I've been in touch with her. Since when?

Since she left L .A., if that's all
right with you.

Actually, I've helped her get a few
different jobs.

She's fallen off the wagon a couple of
times and has been in and out of rehab.

When were you... I mean, you never
bothered to tell me any of this?

What were you going to do, run off and
save her? Yeah, maybe.

Maybe I'll call her right now. You
can't.

She's on her way into another treatment
program, and they don't allow calls

there.

Look, Billy, you have a life here.

Don't blow it on a flaky ex -girlfriend
out of some misplaced sense of death.

Hi, Jeff.

So good to hear your voice.

Hi, Sam. What's up?

Well, I miss you, that's all. I've been
thinking about you and about what you

said.

And I want to make things right between
us. Okay, what do you have in mind?

Well,

I want to be there for you.

Whenever and wherever you are.

I just need you to do me one favor.

And I promise I won't ask anything
again.

Have you been to Atlanta yet?

No, I get there in a couple of days.

Hi, Michael.

Hey, why were you at the hospital so
long?

Oh, surgery.

You should have at least called.

Yeah, well, I was busy.

And you stayed an extra day in Chicago
at that stupid reunion.

Even though you're a pain, it got kind
of lonely here without you.

Here, I made you something.

What's this?

Our baby.

He's been kicking me all day, and I have
to pee every ten minutes, and my back

hurts, and I just don't feel good.

Taylor, why don't you take a warm
shower? I'm going to make myself a

drink. Okay, but you have to promise to
rub my shoulders when I get out. Fine,

I'll be there in a few minutes.

Geez, what now?

Hello? Michael, hi. It's me.

Jane. Jane, is everything okay?

Everything's fine. Perfect, in fact.
Listen, I'm calling from the road.

Oh, oh.

You're on your way to dinner.

No, no. I'm here. I'm in L .A. I got a
rental car at the airport. I am about to

turn off VCH right now. I will be at
your place in about five, ten minutes. I

know this is a big leap.

But it's like you said this morning, I
do deserve a good life and I've decided

to try it out here. You're in L .A.?
