For two months, he's been lying here in
a coma, helpless.

What are his chances, Doctor?

Not good.

We're still trying to locate his family.

Seeing him like this, it just makes me
realize... I love you, D 'Andra.

And cut!

Crouch!

Ernie! Ernie! What'd you think?

At last I cried.

You're on a five.

Okay, thanks.

Bye. You're wonderful.

Oh, thank you. You know, I'm really
getting into this coma stuff, and I

people are starting to notice.

Nice coma today, Seaver. Oh, thank you,
Mr. Chaikin. That means a lot coming

from you.

Lynette, Castiel Fleckman, head writer.
It is a pleasure.

Oh, I see your name on the credits every
week. Wow.

Sweetheart, you want to get me a cup of
coffee and rip the top off a muffin?

Do I want to what?

Uh, excuse me.

Uh... Honey, I think he wants to talk to
me alone, just this once.

We've been so impressed with your
performance. You are Strom Waverly. I

the way you've explored textures,
finding the internal harmonics. Yeah,

ditto. I hope for your sake you can keep
it secret.

Yeah, yeah, what's this?

The episode America's been waiting for.

Next Thursday, we reveal the name of the
murderer.

You're kidding.

But only my character knows.

You mean I wake up? I say the name of
the murderer? Put a sock in it,

This is just the beginning, Strom.

You'll be the flame that drives the
passion burning at the heart of Big City

Secrets. Besides, wardrobe says you look
great without a shirt.

Really? I actually catch cold easily.

I love this kid.

Does that mean I get a raise? I don't
love anybody that much.

Amberstrom, you must store the
murderer's name in the strongbox of your

In other words, blow the secret, I drop
a grenade in your shorts.

Kate, Kate, Kate, are you ready for the
most exciting news in your entire life?

What is it?

I can't tell you.

There's really nobody who's supposed to
know.

Mr. Seaver, Glenn just told me the news.

And he sent you over to congratulate me?

And I want his coffee and his muffin
top.

Honey, I can't believe you actually got
him a cup of coffee.

I can't believe I actually spit in it.

Syllables and everything.

Jason.

Syllables.

Can I get your autograph to take to
school?

Sure, sweetheart.

Can you sign it Jason Priestley?

Wait a minute. You've been on the show
for six months and you haven't had a

line? I couldn't talk. I was in an
accident and practically brain dead.

Well, it doesn't stop for Aldo Rivera.

So, uh, who's the murderer?

What makes you so sure I know? Come on.
Strom Waverly is the only one who knows.

Monica. found out, but she was killed by
Dakota's evil twin at Cruz Bannister

Chateau.

What,

don't you guys ever watch TV?

Don't you ever go to school?

Yes, that's right. I'm home again for
dinner.

My roommate, Breanne, is hosting a soap
opera fan club meeting.

Can you believe they actually have clubs
devoted to discussing that garbage? Can

anybody join?

Anybody with half a brain.

All right.

Hey, more good news to celebrate. That
was the Child Welfare Bureau. They may

have found a home for Luke.

All right, Beth.

Hmm. You think they could take Carol,
too?

So, honey, who are they? Dr. and Mrs.
Kimball. They'll be here for dinner

Wednesday night.

But, Daddy, can't Luke stay with us
forever?

Ah, who'd want that? Besides, you got a
full house ready.

And if I didn't have a place of my own,
how would you come visit me, huh?

Carol, good. You're not busy.

Okay, Carol, Carol.

I need you to watch me do my line and
tell me what you think.

Mike, leave me alone.

If I make enough money, I'll move out.

I'm all ears.

Just make it fast. Okay, okay. Uh, ooh,
let me give you some background.

Now, in 1974, Taylor Pomerant, the
patriarch of Green Valley, disinherited

three sons, Frisco, Corrigan, and
Murray.

Do any of them know your line?

My line. Okay.

Now, I'm in a hospital room. The
stillness punctuated only by the sound

monitor. Ka -ping, ka -ping.

Mike! The line. Right, right.

What kind of a line is that?

No, no, that's not my line. I'm just
getting prepared.

Mike!

Cruz Bannister.

No, no, no, Carol, that was the name of
the murderer.

But you're right, I can do much better
than that.

Cruz Bannister!

Well? They pay you for this?

A speck of protoplasm could do better.
Okay, you're right, you're right. What

was I thinking? He's still on the
respirator.

Howdy, stranger.

Oh, shut up.

Marianne, let me appeal to you as a
human being.

Cool.

You see, I'm falling behind in my
studies, and I can't study at home

brother keeps rehearsing his stupid soap
opera line.

here because because you're an
insensitive boob and my academic

performance is suffering i am suffering
and all i ask of you is a little

human understanding carol you have never
mentioned this before your

brother is on a soap opera which one who
does he play oh no i don't care he just

lies there and breathes

My roomie's brother is Strong Waverly
III.

Carol, my roommate.

I didn't know you had a roommate.

Girl, Carol Sieber, sister of Strong
Waverly III.

I can't believe we've never met before.
I'm Jennifer, and this is Tiffany and

Megan and Courtney. Are you going to
come to the big party on Friday?

Well, I wasn't invited.

You weren't? Well, the party's in this
room.

Promise me you'll come.

Wait a minute.

I once knew a guy who said he played the
Wookiee in Star Wars. Turned out he

just had a low hairline.

How do we know your brother really is
Strom Waverly? Yeah. How do we prove it?

Well, if he weren't on the show, how
would I know? The name of the murderer

is... Cool...

Buster. Cruz Bannister.

Cruz Bannister?

The murderer is Cruz Bannister? That's
it.

Carol, do you think you could take us to
see the show?

Hey, I'm his acting coach.

There, I almost got it.

How'd you learn so much about fixing
dolls?

Oh, I was a surgeon at a doll hospital.

You were not.

Oh, yeah?

When Chatty Cathy lost her voice, who do
you think got her talking again? When

Betsy Wetsy dried up like the Sahara,
who do you think opened up the

And when my little pony got the trots,
who do you think got her back on track?

Let's see.

Well, it's as good as new.

Thanks, Luke.

When I'm all grown up, You better wash
out.

Hey, Luke.

What are you doing dressed up in Ben's
weenie suit?

I want to make a good impression on the
Kimbles.

So you're dressing like Ben?

Hey, Luke, if these people don't like
you the way you are, then the heck with

them. Go upstairs. Throw on some jeans.

Mike! What a pleasant surprise. I didn't
hear you come in.

You had some phone messages.

Yeah? What'd you do, burn them?

There's that urbane wit of yours.

You had two publicists, an agent, and a
writer from a soap opera magazine.

Would you like me to call them back for
you?

Well, did they do some kind of brain
experiment on you at college?

Mike, it just so happens that I'm your
sister and I love you very much. And can

I bring everyone from my dorm to see
your show, please?

Oh, I get it.

You need me to help you make some
friends in your dorm.

Mike, don't make this any harder than it
is. Oh, well, Carol, wasn't it you who

just a few days ago said that I had less
talent than, uh... What was that again?

A speck of protoplasm. Right.

Oh, gee, I don't know. A speck of
protoplasm. We're kind of thin -skinned.

All right, then.

You're handsome.

You're talented.

And?

And you are major beefcake.

And? And I think I'm going to throw up.

That's what I wanted to hear.

Okay, sure, bring him by and I'll see
what I can do.

Creep. Jerk. What was that?

I say, keep up the good work.

That must be the Kimbles.

You seen Luke?

Yeah, he's upstairs trying to look less
like Ben.

Good thinking.

Hello. Doctor and Mrs. Steven?

Shelly and Jim Kimmel. Hello.

How do you do?

Hi, I'm Jason. This is Maggie.

Hi. That's our son, Mike. And Luke will
be down in just a minute. Please, come

in. Sit. Thank you. So, tell us about
yourselves.

Well, I'm a veterinarian. I'm a
housewife.

And in my spare time, I record books for
the blind.

Our apartment isn't huge, but Luke will
have his own bedroom and bathroom.

We're in an excellent school district.

And on weekends, we go up to my
brother's fishing cabin in the

Nice.

Dad, Dad, do you mind if I just ask a
question? No, go ahead, Mike.

So, Dr. Kimball, what's in this for you?

Dr.

Kimball, I'm very sorry.

Come on, we don't know anything about
these people. Anybody can claim to be a

veterinarian.

I am a veterinarian. Oh, well, then what
would you do, hypothetically speaking,

if a cat came limping into this living
room?

Doctor, you have to excuse our son.

He's very protective of Luke.

By the way, what would you do?

Chase. I'm sorry.

It's all right. We understand.

Yeah, please, ask us anything.

Certainly, Dr.

Kimball, if that's your real name.

Bottom line, why do you want Luke?

Well, Shelly and I were both orphans
ourselves.

We know what it's like to be unwanted
and unloved.

We'd like to be able to help Luke out,
give him the family we never had.

Oh, that's very touching.

How long did you rehearse that one?

Well, good night. It was really nice
meeting you, Luke.

Dr. Kimball, I'm sorry if I was a little
tough on you earlier, but you came

through with flying colors. Well, I'm
glad to hear it, Mike. And I'll get that

financial statement over to you right
away.

Why don't I show you to your car?

Good night. Good night. Nice meeting
you. Bye -bye.

What a wonderful...

A couple?

Well, Luke, do you like them?

Oh, what's not to like?

Horseback riding, season Mets tickets,
ski trips. Yeah, and who knew that in a

pinch you could fix a cat leg with a
popsicle stick?

Well? Luke, they love you. They don't
even want to wait until next week. They

want to come back and pick you up Friday
night. Oh, wow, that's great.

Oh, man, did I tell you we'd find you a
good home or what? Yeah, you sure did.

Oh, Luke.

The resting room's huge.

Oh, wow.

Kate, look at this. My sofa. My waste
paper basket.

And look at this. My chair with my name
on it.

Mark Seaver.

Well, you can't have everything.

Glenn. Glenn, oh, hey, you remember my
girl. Canada. Bad news.

Strom. Strom.

Strom, we've rewritten your whole scene.

You're kidding.

Do I still wake up? Of course. But you
don't say Cruz Bannister anymore.

Now, you say Brooke Thunderfield.

He's the murderer?

She.

Wow. This is a curveball.

Brooke Thunderfield.

Is that okay?

Is this kid a trooper or what?

Blowing a yank out your nose head.

Why did you change the name of the
murderer? Oh, some serpent in our midst

the name Cruz Bannister to the Columbia
University paper.

The more I think about it, the more I'd
like to pop the weasel who did it.

Oh, kids today.

Scram, better get into wardrobe.

Roll tape in five minutes. Okay, okay,
right.

You need anything, you let me know.
Okay, I can't think of a thing.

Oh, I can.

This may seem petty, but Ernie put Mark
on the chair and... Say no more.

Ernie's history, he's fired.

No, no, no, no. Just maybe have him
change the name on the chair, but don't

anybody.

Well...

Okay. Well?

Oh, sorry -looking buns.

Hello, Strom Waverly III.

Yeah, hello. Is Mike Seaver there?

Yeah, Luke. Hey, it's me, Mike. I was
just getting into character. What's up?

Look, you've been straight with me.

Felt I owed you a goodbye.

Goodbye? Hey, listen, pal, you're just
moving across town.

I'm leaving town.

Luke, where are you going?

I'll spend the winter in Florida. Don't
worry, I'll be fine.

All buses will be boarding from the
upper course.

Luke, don't do this.

I'll look you up someday.

Luke!

What's wrong? Kate, call the bus
station. Find out the next bus that

anywhere in Florida.

Mike, I know you're... nervous about
today, but running away isn't the

No, no, Kate, I'm not running. Lucas.

Five minutes, Mr. Seaver.

Ah, get Glenn Lynette. I got a problem.

Gwen Lynette, the kid's got a problem!

What's wrong?

Why aren't you in wardrobe?

Uh, look, is there any way that we can
put this off till tomorrow? Impossible.

Tomorrow you lead the SWAT team to the
murderer's lair with your shirt off.

Well, maybe we could just delay it for
an hour or two.

Entertainment Tonight is here for crying
out loud. Be a man!

Look, there's this boy that's been
living with our family, and he's about

back on the streets, and I'm the only
one who can stop him.

Entertainment Tonight.

There's a bus for Fort Lauderdale in 20
minutes. Okay, okay, so I can be back as

soon as I... So this boy's been in your
home, and now, at the moment of truth,

your heart goes out to him.

It's wonderful.

So can I go?

No! But that storyline screams daytime
Emmy.

Can't you just let him go? Is she
anybody?

No.

Dixie suits in five minutes with you in
that bed. Strom, I have designed whole

storylines around you. This is a once
-in -a -lifetime opportunity. I know. I

understand. Look, I have an idea. What
about if we put a dummy in the bed today

and tomorrow I'll come back and do the
shirtless swat thing? How about this? No

more Strom. You're fired.

Are you serious? It's so simple.

Stay not fired. Leave fired. History.
Out of here. Deep six.

I gotta go.

Oh? Well, there's the door.

You're fired.

No, no, no, no.

You don't understand.

People cry and throw themselves at my
feet and beg me to hire them back when

they're fired. And you're fired.

I heard you. Listen, I lost my head.
You're not fired. We'll work something

Thanks. And now that you're working for
me again, you're fired.

Finito. End of the line. Bing, bang,
boom, you're out.

Something's wrong. I'm not enjoying
this.

Forget him. He's obviously not strong.

Of course not. Because he's fired. He
doesn't even exist. In fact, I don't

know who I'm talking to.

Nobody's there. I'm talking to air.

Look, kid, I gotta put on my jacket.
I'll be back as soon as I can. Don't

about me. Just go.

I'm proud of you, Mark Seaver.

Can I help you?

Yes. I'm looking for Mike Seep.

Never heard of him.

Well, he's on this show. I should know.
I'm his sister.

Excuse me, puts.

I've only been with this show since it
was created, you know? You don't believe

me? Go ask the producer there. You're
fired.

Fired, fired, fired.

Get a stand.

Hi. I'm looking for Mike Seaver.

Mike Seaver? There is no Mike Seaver.
There never was a Mike Seaver. There's

just air.

Air.

I smell a Wookiee.

Wait, wait. I can prove it.

The murderer's name is on page 14.

Look, Thunderfield.

I knew Cruz couldn't have done it. Wait!

This is Mike.

Look, this is my brother.

What are you kids doing here?

We are not kids. We are students from
Columbia University.

Security!

Come on, let's get out of here. I can't.
I'll lose my free seat.

You're going to ride all the way to
Florida in a restroom?

He's hanging out at the back with a
skateboard.

Come on, come on, let's go.

Just let me go.

Like I'm going to let you wander the
streets while I leave the SWAT team to

killer with my shirt off.

Fort Lauderdale Express.

Get comfortable or get off.

Look, what was wrong with the Kimballs?

Hey, I don't trust a man who uses a
Popsicle stick to fix a cat.

Look, I'm serious. What was wrong with
the Kimballs?

Nothing. I'm just tired of getting used
to people and having them bitch me.

Bitch you?

Yeah. My dad split when I was two. My
mom died. And you guys are...

Luke, look how great you fit in with us.
I mean, after only a month, you were

part of our family.

Not quite.

Driver, stop this bus.

I'm blowing out of here.

Jason, I heard a noise downstairs. Maybe
Luke's back. Are you awake?

Mm -hmm.

Mom, Dad, look, I'm sorry it's so late,
but I've made a decision.

I don't want Luke going to the
Kimball's.

I want Luke to stay right here, and I
will take full responsibility for him.

Mike. Mom, Mom, you said it yourself.
Luke fits in around here.

Well, that's true. And that's because he
loves us, and we love him.

And that's the bottom line.

Well, I can't say I haven't had the same
thought from time to time, but...

Jason. Mm -hmm.

That makes it unanimous, Dick.

Thanks,

Mom. We'll work it out in the morning.
Okay, thanks, Dad.

Mike, your father and I are proud of
you.

Mm -hmm.

Good night. Good night.

Oh, Jason.

Isn't this wonderful?

Jason.

Jason, wait.

What's going on? What is it?

We just had another child.
