Zurich will transfer funds for the
Cooper Field buyout whenever you give

word. Ditto for the stock swap with
Richmond Industries.

And Morgan finally caved on the
Lakeshore development deal. He will

terms. $25 million against 51 % equity
ownership with a buyout option when the

project goes public.

A very nice play. You have to discuss
this now.

All you need to do is meet with Morgan
to dot the I's and cross the T's.

This can wait, Mac. No, it really can't.

Listen, Gregory.

I'm telling you, as your doctor and as
your friend, you need this bypass

procedure now or you might not be alive
to cross or dot anything tomorrow.

I know, I know.

I'm going to call Community General and
have you admit it tonight.

What about her?

Can you get her there?

Lonnie, it's a difficult situation.
First he can't find her, then he can't

her in.

Gregory, you all right? Got your pill?

Does he know what's at stake here?

Yes, he knows.

Gregory, please, just try to relax.
Don't put any more strain on your heart.

Just get her there, Max, you understand?

We'll try. Don't try!

Put a gun to her head.

Or in a car, kidnap her if you have to.

Let's get in there.

Community General, get me admitting
right away. It's urgent.

Patient presented with muscle weakness
in abdomen and chest.

Faintness and sweating plus lower
temperature in outer extremities.

Extremities.

We're not keeping you awake, are we,
doctor?

No, sir.

I mean, yes.

I mean, I'm a little tired.

Why don't we continue this outside?

Excuse us.

All right, patient history before
admission.

Okay, that would be recent. You all
right? Yes, sir. Recent minor

infection was treated with antibiotics.

On direction of the chief resident, a
spinal fluid lab was ordered, and the

results were consistent with acute...

Polyneuritis. Another name for

anyone?

Guillain -Barre syndrome.

It's an inflammatory condition of the
nerves that causes rapid weakness and

of sensation.

Treatment? A cortisone combined with
physical therapy to promote and maintain

muscle tone.

All right. And prognosis?

Complete recovery over time with that
residual effect.

Very, very good. All right, that's all,
class. See you tomorrow.

Um, might I have a word with you,
doctor?

Yeah.

What time does your shift start?

What day is it?

One of the other interns had a family
emergency and she asked me to take over

her shift to come right after mine
You've been on your feet for 48 hours

actually about 53 Look at Tuesday and I
figured we're usually slow

so I can get some sleep during the
downtime Well, it hasn't been any

tonight. Look

Patients get very uneasy when a doctor
yawns during an examination.

I'll take over your shift. Go home and
get some sleep. No, no, no, no, no, no.

I'm fine. I swear. You can trust me. I'm
steady as a rock, tight as a bow.

No need to apologize.

It won't take me more than an hour to
reassemble these files. Of course, I

a meeting in 15 minutes with the widow
of one of the hospital's biggest

contributors about continuing their
financial support.

And these files are crucial to that
presentation.

But I'm sure she won't mind waiting
around a few hours while I sort all this

out.

I can tell you to sleep sound very good.

Don't come back till tomorrow.

Mark, you know what my fantasy is?
What's that?

A hospital with no doctors.

I long for the day when I see my last
white coat.

What's really bothering you, Norman?

Fundraising. I always have my hand out
for a donation.

Whenever a big donor comes to town, I
drop my life and do whatever it takes to

make sure he or she continues to support
Community General.

I'm no fan of the rubber chicken
circuit, Norma, but it can't be that

it?

Do you know Dale

Tanner?

Uh, Tanner Oil and Gas, Tanner Stadium.

Billion dollar Dale, yeah.

Our largest non -institutional donor.

I had no idea.

He wanted anonymity. For 15 years,
Tanner's annual donation had been all

stood between community general and
bankruptcy.

Dale Tanner died last month, and now his
widow completely controls his

foundation. The foundation that writes
the checks for community general.

Yesterday, I heard from his attorneys
that the widow Tanner wants a personal

review of all our operations before she
renews the donation.

So now I get to give a grand command
performance for some little old lady

bank account.

Oh, I'm sorry, Norman.

Look, if you need any help, let me know.

Mark, now that you mention it, you know,
the widow, Tano, and you would be

just... What? Absolutely not.

Mark, there is no one in this hospital
with a better, kinder, warmer bedside

manner than you. She's not a patient.

Without her, we can't afford patients.
Mark, if anybody could charm the blue

hair off this lady, it's you. No, nada,
nyet, never, nine.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you're the best in the
business of what you do. You don't need

help. Yes, I do.

I need your help. Not in this case.

Hi, I'm looking for Norman Briggs.

I'm Norman Briggs.

Mrs.

I'm Paige Tanner.

Dale Tanner was my husband. I'm here to
discuss our donation.

Mr.

Briggs, are you okay?

Mrs. Tanner, I've never been better.

Shall we go to my office?

I was just telling Dr. Sloan how I was
looking forward to meeting you.

Maybe he's got some word on the girl.

I'll go make sure everything's ready.

Oh, tell me you have good news.

Oh, God.

Car keys.

And my clothes in my locker. No.

I really need some sleep.

Damn it, Bonnie. If you can't get in
here, I'll get back in the car. Gregory,

come on. We can handle this. We can
handle it the first time. Gregory, calm

down. You're too sick. The hell I am.
Get out of my way.

Gregory.

Oh, my God.

Watch out.

No pulse.

No respirations.

Get a crash cart. He's in cardiac
arrest.

What? His heart has stopped.

Now tell the nurse that we've got a code
blue.

Is he dead?

Yes, he's dead.

Now go inside and get a crash cart. Code
blue, stat!

That means now!

I make you stay this late even when
you're just consulting?

Well, you know me.

I get started, I can't stop.

How are you, Dr. Quiller? Fine, except I
can't get admitting to follow my

orders. Well, you know something, Ed?
You're not an army surgeon anymore.

got to stop standing at attention and
barking out orders to people.

What do you need?

I scheduled a patient for a bypass
tomorrow morning, reserved the

suite, and some nincompoop in admitting
has no record of it. Who's the patient?

Gregory King.

Someone with that kind of money deserves
to be in the governor's suite. Exactly.

He's an old friend of mine. I don't have
to tell you if he's happy with his

procedure. It could mean a whole new
cardiac wing. Oh, yeah. Let me see what

can do.

I'm not used to this kind of sloppiness.
Well, this isn't the military.

Get a crash cart.

Code blue, level two, the parking
structure.

Someone entered here? Cardiac arrest. No
pulse, no respiration. You left him?

What kind of doctors are you training?
Anyway, Flo.

Watch it. Yeah, I got it.

Rapid pulse, shallow respiration, loss
of color. Someday you should learn the

difference between cardiac arrest and a
mild tachycardia, doctor.

Mild tachycardia?

Doc, when I got here, this man was not
responding to CPR.

He had no pulse, no respiration. He was
dead.

Well, he doesn't look dead now.

But let's get him admitted and prepared
for surgery. He should already be

admitted.

Is he?

Wait a minute, that's not him.

Not who?

That's not the guy.

Not what guy?

That's not the guy with no pulse, the
guy who couldn't resuscitate.

The dead guy.

They said his name was Gregory.

Gregory King?

I don't know Gregory.

What'd you do with him, huh?

What'd you do with him? Doctor Sloan, as
I told you, Gregory King is an old

friend. That man was Gregory King.

I think your young doctor needs some
rest.

I see. Excuse me.

Jesse, look.

We both know that we get exhausted and
we make mistakes.

Now, why don't you go home, get some
rest. We'll take a fresh look at it

tomorrow, all right?

Yeah, we'll talk about it.

Fishing in Montana.

River rafting in Utah.

Or houseboating on Lake Mead. Oh, nice.

You don't think I'm going to go, do you?

All I know is ever since Mom died, every
year we talk about taking a trip like

this. And every year I plan it, and
every year something comes up at the

second. Okay.

River rafting in Utah.

Make the reservations.

Okay. When do you want to go?

How about tomorrow morning, first thing?

You serious?

Why, I'm sure.

I'm very serious. Let's do it. Okay, I'm
going to make the call. All right.

Okay.

We've got to do something.

Jesse, I am doing something. I am taking
care of your patients so that you may

go home and sleep.

How can I sleep when there's a dead man
missing and someone who isn't dead is

taking his place and is pretending to be
sick when he can't really be sick

because he's not the guy who had the
heart attack in the first place?

Now, I know that makes absolutely no
sense, but please work with me here.

Look, I'll tell you what I'm going to
do.

If you will go home and get in a nice
hot shower, get between some clean

and take a nap, I will do my best to
look into this little mystery of yours.

about that?

You're just humoring me, aren't you?
Yes, I am. Get some sleep.

I hate to be humored.

Amanda, I need your help.

Are you all right? I'm fine. Why?

I've had corpses come through here that
look better than you do today.

Was one of them named Gregory King?

Oh, I heard about that. The tachycardia
case.

The man that you thought was dead in the
parking garage? Oh, yeah.

Catch him asleep.

I'm fine.

Excuse me?

Do you mind if we take a tour of your
facility?

Rick!

Norman! You haven't seen any bodies
lying around here, have you?

Bodies? I'm not sure I know what you
mean.

Bodies!

Why would they be lying around? This is
a professionally run hospital. Dr.

Livingston, Dr. Travis, I'd like you to
meet Paige Tanner, one of our more

generous contributors to the annual
fund.

How do you do?

Fine, thank you.

Isn't that interesting?

It's a petri dish. We grow cultures.

Dr. Livingston here analyzes them.

Yes, I know what a petri dish is.

Of course.

Have you ever looked through a real
microscope?

Uh -huh.

Good. Well...

Why don't we just go to the cafeteria
and make a good root beer float?

Neat.

Carry on, everyone.

Okay.

You know, after witnessing Norman handle
the donors, I can see why we're so

strapped for cash.

Hey, men, stay focused here, please.

Would you focus on the bed? The man with
the tachycardia is not the same guy

that I saw drop dead with a heart
attack. I don't know why, but they

guys. Who switched guys? Ed Quiller and
the men who were with this guy, Gregory

King.

Ed Quiller, the former chief of cardiac
surgery. You can't be serious.

He's in it with them. They're all in
this together.

Okay, does the phrase sleep deprivation
paranoia mean anything to you?

Yeah, you can't say tachycardia.

Very specific physical symptoms.

You have clammy skin, a rapid pulse. You
can't just hold your breath and make

your pulse race. It doesn't work that
way. So you're not going to help me

investigate? Go rest before the eyeballs
in your head fall out.

I'm fine.

Are you sure you wouldn't want to see
the pediatrics ward?

What, and maybe get a no more boo -boo
balloon?

Oh, so you know about the boo -boo
balloons.

Could I see the financials from the
first of the year, please?

I beg your pardon?

Financials? Isn't that what you and my
husband generally went over when he made

this tour?

Yes, but your husband was... Was no more
interested in boo -boo balloons and

root beer floats than I am.

Yes, well, I'm... Your spreadsheets, Mr.
Briggs.

Condescending, wasn't I? Just a touch.

Here are the budget reconciliation
reports of the last five years, and of

the first three quarters of this year,
as well as projections for expenditures

and income over the next 24 -month
period.

Sure you need all this detail?

I wasn't my husband's airhead secretary
before we were married.

I was his investment manager.

I know how to read a spreadsheet.

Really?

Amortizing capital expenditures on a 60
-month schedule against a diminishing

percentage of projected income.

That's bold, yet defensible, even under
strictly conservative standards of

fiscal management.

I'm impressed.

I was trying to maximize my resources
while minimizing my risks.

I can see that.

You have the same flair for numbers my
husband had.

Your husband was a brilliant investor.

I know.

Hey, you know, I'm starving.

How about dinner?

Yeah.

I know this wonderful little Italian
restaurant, Pasadena.

I'll call Danny.

Hey, you know, why don't we make this a
working dinner?

This sort of thing really gives me an
appetite.

Load her in.

You're right, Nadine.

You are absolutely right.

I mean, I've been tired before.

My first year of med school, I slept
maybe a total of 20 minutes, but I never

saw things that weren't there.

Okay, there was that one time when I
could have sworn I saw Chachi at a

Lobster Claw. You know, those places
with the big old claw that really got

shrimp.

But that had less to do with lack of
sleep and more to do with those

think, during finals.

Oh, God.

Maybe I did imagine this whole thing.

Maybe Amanda's right.

You can't fake tachycardia symptoms.

You just can. You either have them or
you don't.

And all his vitals and all his charts
said they were there.

I've got to end up drinking that enough.

It's making my heart race a mile a
minute.

Wait a second.

You can't fake them, but you can mimic
them, right?

That's right.

Nadine, I think that we're onto
something here.

Thank you. You get some sleep.

Yellow.

Shortness of breath, redness in the
face, rapid heartbeat.

Sounds like my first date.

Gregory.

Good evening, Dr. Jones.

There you are.

278.

And what kind of inhaler is that?

What do you care?

That's an asthma inhaler.

Mom always told me it wasn't polite to
grab other kids' toys. I guess she was

right. Haven't you caused enough trouble
for one day, Doctor?

You know, a friend of mine told me that
you can't fake tachycardia.

Your friend's right.

But you can mimic all the symptoms with
a bronchodilator overdose.

Rapid pulse, clammy skin, fast, shallow
breathing.

You can get it all with one of these.

Young man, you need psychiatric help.

Unless you want me to report you to the
medical board, I would suggest you leave

my patient alone.

It's just too explosive.

We can't possibly keep the truth quiet
more than a few hours.

We won't have to.

Lonnie, have you talked to your people?

I explained the situation. They know
it's urgent.

They promised they'll deliver by 9 o
'clock at the latest. Where's the body

I don't know.

Make sure you keep it that way.

I'll be back.

Now we're through it.

Whoa. Whoa.

Hold it.

Hold it.

Hold it!

Stay

with

him. I'll get help.

Jesse?

Jesse?

Don't try to sit up. You could have a
concussion. We're waiting on the C

No, no, no. There's no time for that.

The goods are going to be delivered here
by 9 o 'clock.

Oh, no, no. Lie down. Lie down.

No, no, no. Please, I swear. I'm fine.
Trust me.

You guys have to come with me. There's
something you've got to see.

Either of you have a tire iron?

Jesse, what are you doing?

Proving to you that I saw what I told
you I saw.

The guy had a heart attack in this
garage.

The guy who disappeared, I found him.
Where?

Here.

Now, what... Please.

Don't humor me.

Anyway, the good news is we got the CAT
scan back. There are no consequences for

the concussion.

Other than you both think that I'm
crazy.

Not any more than usual.

Hey, Dad.

Hi. Hi, guys.

I ran that check you wanted on King, Max
Rondell, and Lonnie Hill.

You actually looked into them?

I told you I would.

None of them has a police record.
Gregory King owns King Investments. Max

Rondell is his partner. And Lonnie Hill
is his security chief.

What about Quiller?

I've known Ed since medical school.
There's no way he could be involved in

anything criminal.

Oh, yeah? And how come he's hanging
around with guys with dead bodies in the

trunks of their cars?

He's double duty. A little sleep
deprivation.

One interesting thing. King and the
others served on a special forces team

Southeast Asia 20 -odd years ago.

King won the Medal of Honor for bravery
under fire.

And that's all I got.

Well, thank you. Are we still leaving
tomorrow morning? As far as I'm

yeah. Why?

Because it's 9 o 'clock and you should
be getting home to pack.

Well, you have my word, my friend. No
last -minute cancellations this time.

Tomorrow it's you and me and the Wild
River.

That's River Wild. That's River Wild,
right. See you. See you.

9 o 'clock.

The goods are being delivered here by 9
o 'clock.

What goods?

They were all in Southeast Asia
together.

Drugs come from Southeast Asia.

They're smuggling drugs.

And they've got a delivery coming here
by 9 o 'clock.

Only Gregory King has to take the
delivery personally, and that's why

pretending that he's still alive. This
all makes sense now.

Only to you.

Dorothy, you get some sleep. We'll get
you back to Kansas real soon.

Sleep?

How can I sleep with all this going on?

You don't have any choice, my little
friend. Those tablets I just gave you...

Oh, no.

I'm going to fight this.

There he goes.

Isn't he cute? Very sweet.

It's 78, Rob.

It was a very dry year, not too much
rain.

This particular bottling is from the
northern slopes, so it's a little less

tannic than other Bordeaux's of that
vintage.

Sorry, but wines are a hobby of mine.

My husband was the same way.

Get Dale started on one of his passions.

Horses, sculpture, money.

He could just talk for hours.

You remind me of him.

I do.

Uh -huh.

You've, um... You've stepped up to the
plate, Mr. Briggs.

This last hour has been extremely
informative and exciting.

And, well, I don't think I'll be needing
anything more.

You won't?

You've won me over.

Shall we?

Shall we?

If you'd like to accompany me to my
hotel room, I'm prepared to give you

everything you want.

That's an offer I can't refuse.

I'll be right behind you. I just have
some things to take care of. Oh, of

course.

Here they come.

This is just a business deal.

Don't get so excited.

Baby, the way that you're kicking, you
are definitely going out for soccer

Sunday.

A nurse.

Does Dr. Quiller have any patients on
the floor?

Only the tachycardia patient in ICU.

What about room 130?

There's no one in 130.

Really? Thank you.

No.

Bruce is inside now.

Hello?

Are you all right?

We have a patient, a Mr. King, who was
admitted this morning. I need his

records. Oh, his doctor's office might
be closed.

I can check with his insurance company.
Insurance?

Mm -hmm. They keep records on all
medical procedures performed on the

they cover. Oh. I can have his records
in a few minutes.

Okay, thanks a lot, but I'd like to get
out of here as soon as I can. Okay.

Bart, you've got to come with me right
away.

Baby? No.

want anything to do with it. Given the
circumstance, you don't have that

I'll take it from here, boys, okay?

I

think

this is the same dead guy that Jesse's
been talking about.

Here, let me do that.

What?

I'm trying to take a nap here.

Sorry.

Have you been here a while?

The room was open.

I was tired.

I didn't think anybody'd mind.

But if there's a rule about it... No,
no, no problem. Our mistake.

Go back to sleep.

Sorry.

Okay.

I need to talk to a woman alone.

Okay, Mark?

Oh, sure.

Yeah, go ahead.

Step in.

What's going on around here?

Hey, what's up?

Have you ever seen a suite at the Bel
Air Hotel?

No.

They're exquisite.

Out in Paige's room.

She invited me. She invited me there.

Did you get the donation?

Well, not exactly.

What happened?

Amanda, she's a very, very attractive
girl.

Don't you think?

Yeah, I'd say so.

She has a certain sexiness about her.
Norman, what happened?

I was sitting in her parlor and she went
into her bedroom to get a checkbook.

She came out in this little fluffy see
-through.

She said she'd write the check right
after we... Why are you telling me all

this?

Because I couldn't. I didn't. What? Am I
insane?

Do you think I insulted her?

I felt so cheap, so used.

It was torturing.

So you did not get the check, did you?

What I did get was dizzy.

I had to leave. I left her in the parlor
in that little fluffy see -through.

I guess I should have just rolled over
and thought of community general.

Right, well, rollover would be the
operative phrase, wouldn't it?

You know, but I still think you made the
right decision, Norman.

You do?

Absolutely. You're a man of integrity.
You're a man of values.

Never cheapen yourself.

And as a woman, I have to say that I'm
very impressed by you.

Really? Really.

I guess I'll just have to find some new
donuts for the annual fund.

That would be the wise thing to do.

Thank you, sweetheart.

You're welcome.

Unbelievable.

on this. Please, talk to him. I don't
have anything to say to that bastard. He

has something to say to you. Just listen
to him.

There. You see?

She's the good.

Excuse me?

Sloan, what's going on here? What's
going on is you're busted.

Jesse. We know all about your Southeast
Asia drug smuggling ring, Quiller. Drug

smuggling?

Sloan. That's right. Drug smuggling.
Jesse.

And she's your courier, here to make a
delivery to the head man.

So where do you got the goods? On that
little bag right there?

Jessie, I think you ought to sit down
for a moment. I think Mark's right.

this isn't what you think it is. Oh,
really?

Really? Well, then who is she? And what
is she doing here?

Huh? My name is Ruth Chandler.

And I'm here because Gregory King is my
father.

He's your father?

Well, if this is a family affair, I
think we'd better be going. No, that's

right.

Please stay.

I don't care who knows what a bastard my
father's been.

I think Mark's right. I think we should
leave.

He deserted my mother when she was
pregnant.

And ignored both of us for 25 years.

Like we didn't exist.

Like I didn't exist.

25 years of nothing.

And then five days ago, my mother passed
away.

And out of nowhere, he wants to meet me.

He wants to do the long -lost daughter
loving daddy thing.

Well, I told him he could go to hell.

So he has his thugs kidnap me.

Guess he thought that would make a great
impression with what a good father he's

trying to be.

you for 25 years.

Why should I have anything to do with
you now?

Because I'm dying.

And there are some things you need to
hear that you can only hear from me.

If you don't mind, I would like to talk
to my daughter alone.

Of course.

Wait a minute, how does all that stuff
you said tie in with the drug smuggling

ring in South East Asia?

No.

Ed, I am sorry for barging in there and
for the accusations that Jesse made.

It reminds me of my old intern days. Too
many long shifts, too little sleep, too

much responsibility.

It all takes a toll.

He tried to save Gregory's life. We owe
you something for that.

How did Gregory King win the Medal of

Honor, anyway?

Our patrol was headed for an evac behind
enemy lines when we hit an ambush.

Gregory hung back and drew their fire
until the rest of us could reach the

chopper. How did he get out?

He made a run for it.

Took a couple of bullets for his effort.

Spent a year in rehab, but we all live
thanks to Gregory.

You owe him a lot.

You owe a man your life.

It's a debt you never really can repay.

It's true.

Is it true what he said in there? He's
dying?

Well, those old wounds left heavy scar
tissue around his heart. A few weeks

he had a coronary episode.

A big one.

It's only a question of time.

Excuse me. Yeah.

All I'm saying is that maybe you and
Mark are right. I mean, maybe I am so

that I'm actually seeing things.

Do you actually think that I imagined
seeing a dead man? No, I did not. I'm

allowing you to back off on this either.
I'll answer your question. Yes, I do.

He was dead. I totally think that you
could have imagined it. Dead, dead,

Thank you, Sandy.

Doc, please, tell her that I'm
delirious. He's delirious.

However, I don't think you're seeing
things.

So you think Ruth Chandler is a drug
courier. No, I think Ruth Chandler is

exactly what she says she is, but other
things are not.

Just keep an eye on those two guys, will
you?

Why? Just call on insurance.

Oh, look,

the big guy. He's moving.

All right, all right. You wait here.

I'll check him out.

Yeah, right.

Like I'm going to run to keep up with
you.

The more, the better place to hide a
dead body.

That's the guy I saw.

The guy I saw? I saw him first. Well, I
did.

He's moving him again.

Well, how do we stop him?

Go around to the other door.

Stick this in the handle.

You still talking in there? Yeah.

And who is that in there with her?

Is that your old friend Max Rondell?

I don't know what you mean.

When that man in there told Ruth
Chandler he was dying, I took a look at

cardiac monitor. I couldn't see anything
wrong.

I thought maybe I was missing something
subtle.

But then you told me that Gregory King
had scarred heart tissue from an old war

wound.

This is a fax from his insurance
carrier, his medical records. According

this, that man in there should have
extensive damage around all four aortic

arteries.

This is a printout from the cardiac
monitor in the nurse's station. There is

evidence of any scarring of any kind
here. This is the heart of a healthy

Whoever that is in there, it isn't
Gregory King.

Jesse was right, wasn't he?

He's dead, isn't he?

Yeah.

Why pretend he's still alive for that
girl in there?

Gregory and Ruth's mother were together
briefly 25 years ago.

She broke it off when he joined the
army. She hated the war, hated him for

part of it.

He didn't know she was pregnant?

Didn't know he had a child.

When she realized she was dying, she
sent him a letter.

Said she'd poisoned the child against
him.

If you ask me, it was that letter that
brought on his first heart attack.

Although it probably would have happened
soon enough anyway.

After she died, Gregory had Lonnie try
to find the girl. He wanted to make

amends. Wanted to make her his heir.

She didn't want anything to do with him
or his money, huh?

Her mother did a good job on Ruth.

Gregory felt the only way to convince
her he knew nothing about her was face

face, father to daughter.

He wanted to do that tonight.

But he died before that could happen.

So you and your friends decided to keep
him alive so that Gregory could have

that talk with his daughter.

Max was like a brother to Gregory.

If anyone could say what was in
Gregory's heart, Max can.

After this, we plan to take Gregory's
body back to his hotel and let a maid

discover it.

Quick cremation.

Nobody would ever have to know when he
really died.

What are you going to do, Mark?

Well, aside from the moral question
raised here, as a doctor, I had you do

something very unethical.

I know.

I know, I know. You did it for the right
reasons. It was very noble.

You all right, Ruth?

I don't know.

I think it's not the man that I thought
he was.

I'm just so glad I had this opportunity.

You must have a lot to think about.

Uh, Dr. Quiller, why don't you see that
she gets home safely? I'll, uh, we'll

look after your father.

I'll do that.

We got Lonnie Hill locked up in the
morgue with Gregory King's body.

Oh, in the morgue? Oh, uh, gosh, Jesse,
bad move.

What? What? Lonnie is an agent. He works
for the government. An agent?

Oh, yeah, drugs.

Drugs? It's Southeast Asia. That's
right.

Dad,

what's taking so long?

Just signing my last chart. All right,
well, let's get out of here before all

hell breaks loose. Right behind you, my
friend. Mark, Mark, I need to talk to

you.

Good, I'll see you in a week. No, no,
no, no, not a week. Now.

Now I'm going on a vacation with my son,
Norman. You don't understand.

An emotional crisis, a trauma,
catharsis.

Sounds serious, Norman. It is. It is,
Mark. Thank you. I'll tell you what I'll

do. I'll go to Utah and get really
rested up. Then I'll be back fresh and

to help you.

Mark, I need to... See you. Bye, Norman.

Norman.

Norman?

Norman.

Norman, I can't... Blame me for not
bearing to look at me, but please turn

around so that I can face you.

And face my guilt.

I know how you must be feeling, Norman.

Cheap.

Used.

Torture?

Yes. If I had only been able to control
my desire just for a moment.

I should have given you that check.

Then I could have freely given myself.

You mean you would have even without the
money? Instead, I blundered like a

fool.

But being alone with you in that hotel
room, so handsome, being so noble,

the same fascination I felt for my
husband.

This is for you, Norman.

A $3 million endowment check.

No, no, wait.

Take it, darling.

Then I can leave.

No, Norman.

I'm going back to New York.

And I'll never bother you again.

Is she leaving?

Forever.

Wow.

You could have had...

Hmm? She wanted me for me.

And now?

Now all I have is a lousy $3 million
check.
