Did you see this piece

on Entertainment Tonight's
website?

Hmm?

It's about
who should play the Articulettes

in the biopic about the group.

-That's nice.
-[chuckling]

This journalist has suggested

that Halle Bailey play
Anita Williams.

[chuckles]
Isn't that something?

They want this young lady
to go from The Little Mermaid

to the Queen of R and B,

also known as my beautiful wife.

Anita?

I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry.
What were you saying?
-[chuckles softly]

Nothing important.

Something wrong
with the foundation?

No.

I've gone over
these spreadsheets ten times,

but I can only seem
to focus on one thing.

What's that?

Making someone pay
for hurting one of our girls.

[door slams]

Nicole, what's this?

Please don't tell me Ted has
gone and done something else.

Not that I know of. At least not
since the last time we spoke.

Oh, thank God.
I've been so worried

about how you're handling
this latest betrayal.

-We both have.
-Mm.

Well, I appreciate the support,

but I am not the one
you need to worry about.

Oh, Lord, give me strength.

What has Dani gone and done now?

Is it just me
or is this room spinning?

Oh, it's spinning, all right.
[grunts]

-Ow. Damn it.
-Oh.

Hey, maybe you can see
more clearly without the--

If you lay one finger on
these shades, I will hurt you.

My bad.

No.
[sighs]

No, you're right.
[sniffles]

-Okay.
-Mm-hmm.

Okay, that's not as bad
as I thought it would be.

-[sniffles]
-It never is.

-Do you think I need A.A.?
[chuckles softly]

I mean, who gets
blackout drunk like this?

[snorts]
Apparently, we do.

[grunts] You don't mind
if I just crash here, do you?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No crashing allowed.
No, we have to figure out

what we're gonna do.

[grunts]
About these monster hangovers?

[groaning]

I'm due for a-a lineup,
but my hair actually hurts.

About the fact
that we got married in Vegas.

I can call my lawyer,

and hopefully he can get
this whole...

impulsive, drunken marriage
annulled before the press--

or, more importantly,
my family--

find out it ever happened.

♪ ♪

Vanessa, it's Jacob.

I left you several messages,

because there's
an important matter

I need to talk to you about.

Please call me back
when you get a chance.

Still haven't managed
to get ahold of her, huh?

I suppose you think you could
have reached her immediately.

Oh, someone's touchy today.

I was just wondering how
the wife would take the news.

How would you take it
if your world was falling apart?

My guess, not good.

-[Vanessa moaning loudly]
-[Joey panting]

[panting]

[laughing]

I'd ask if it was as good
for you as it was for me,

but, based on the sounds
you make,

I think I have my answer.

Sorry. Subtlety's
never been my strong suit.

No, no, no, no, don't apologize.

-I love your enthusiasm.
-Mmm.

-I can't remember the last time
I was this relaxed.
-[chuckles]

Yeah. Well,
this bed is no poker table,

-but it'll do in a pinch.
-[chuckles]

-You ready for round two?
-[chuckles]

By my math,
it would be round four.

And the answer is always.

Mmm.

-Just give me a sec.
-[groans]

Make sure I haven't missed
any important calls.

Then I am all yours again.

Mmm. Good.

Seem to have this insatiable
appetite when it comes to you.

[chuckles]

That's funny.

I have several voicemails
and missed texts

from Jacob Hawthorne.

Well, maybe he
and his lawyer wife

are in the market
for a new place?

Maybe. I-I don't know
why that would be urgent though.

[line ringing]

Vanessa.

I went to your house,
but you weren't there.

I-I'm out of town on business.

Is everything all right?

Nothing's wrong with the twins?

It's not the twins.

Is anyone there with you?

Yes, I'm-I'm
with an-an associate.

Why? Jacob, what's going on?

I'm afraid I have some bad news.

It's Doug.

What about Doug?

Doug was in a car accident
early this morning.

I hate to tell you this
over the phone,

but, Vanessa...

...he's dead.

I won't be in this morning.
I'm working from home.

Yeah, yeah. I asked him
about Vanessa and Joey.

According to Bill,
it isn't true.

What isn't true?

Got to go, Caroline.
Hubby's here.

See you later.

-Hey, baby.
-Hey.

-Mmm.
-Mmm.

-I didn't hear you stirring.
-[chuckles softly]

That's because you were too
busy gossiping with Caroline.

[chuckles] Caroline and I
were just having fun

speculating
about Vanessa's love life.

Mm-hmm. Well,
do I have to remind you

that it wasn't that long ago
when you were the center

of recreational speculation?

And the rumors about us
were true.

Yeah.

Yeah, well, that's not the case

with this absurd story

that Vanessa is hooking up
with Joey Armstrong.

No.

Look, from everything I know,

Vanessa and Doug are solid.

JACOB:
Vanessa, you still there?

Yes.

I'm here. I-- H-How--

I-I don't understand. What...

What happened?

From the looks of it,
he lost control of his car,

went off the highway
into a ravine,

where he hit a tree,
and the car caught on fire.

The officers on scene
recovered a flask,

and they said
it smelled like alcohol.

So, presumably, Doug was driving
under the influence.

But we won't know for sure
until we run some more tests.

Did he...

did he suffer?

We'll have to wait for
the coroner's report to confirm.

But from the looks of it,
he died on impact,

so he most likely didn't suffer.

I'm glad. Doug hates...

He-he never could stand pain.

Look, this is gonna be a very
difficult time for you, Vanessa.

You need to take care
of yourself.

I-I'm fine.

Look, I hate to ask,

but when you're able...

...we need you to come down

and review some items
recovered at the scene,

just so we can make
a positive I.D.

I-I'll head home right away.

Vanessa, again,
I really am sorry.

[sniffles]
Thank you, Jacob.

What is it?

Something happened to Doug?

He was in a car accident.
Something about...

[stammers]

...a ravine and a fire.

God.

[shudders]
M-My husband is dead.

[crying]

Damn.

Giving that news to the loved
ones never gets easier, does it?

Mm-mm. Job's always harder
than you think.

In more ways than you think.

And knowing the people involved

makes it
that much more difficult.

I just can't imagine what
Vanessa must be going through.

If something like that
happened to Naomi...

I wouldn't compare what you and
that Dupree wife of yours have

with Vanessa and Doug's
so-called marriage.

I know there were rumors
about Vanessa cheating,

but I heard
her voice over the phone.

That woman was devastated.

Yeah.

Well, surprised,
I'm sure, but...

karma's a bitch.

Her husband chose
to drink himself stupid

and get behind the wheel
of a car.

Hate to say it, but...

McBride brought this on himself.

That word "annulment" just flew
right out of your mouth.

[sighs, sniffles]

You really don't want anyone
to know

what happened in Vegas, do you?

Isn't that the whole point
of Vegas?

You're supposed
to be able to go there,

let your freak flag fly,
and never have to worry

about the consequences when
you return to your normal life.

Yeah, but would marriage to me
be that bad

-of a consequence?
-[chuckles] Andre,

we were both drunk out of
our minds when we got married.

By an Anita Dupree impersonator,
no less.

An Anita Williams impersonator,

-which makes this whole thing
even worse.
-[sighs]

The last thing my family needs
is another scandal,

let alone one involving
my mother.

Right, right. I can see
how that can make things

-a little more complicated.
-Plus,

we were great as friends
with benefits.

Yeah.

Pretty awesome benefits.

-Right?
-Yeah.

But I think...

we both know
that's all this can ever be.

So, my parents and my sister...

-Mm.
-...can never find out

that we jumped the broom.

Right.

Well, don't keep us
in suspense, Nicole.

What kind of trouble has
Dani gotten herself into now?

Oh, I don't think
words can do it justice. [sighs]

VERNON:
Lord have mercy.

-Let me see that.
-One of the interns

at the hospital texted it to me.

It seems this wedding took place

sometime within
the last couple of days.

But the officiant
just posted this.

I didn't want you and Daddy
seeing it out of the blue,

so I came over here
to give you a heads-up.

Is there any chance that this
could be one of those deepfakes

people keep talking about?

I wish that were the case,
Daddy, but this has

Dani written all over it.

-And I recognize the outfit.
-Mm.

-So Dani and Andre
actually got married...
-[scoffs]

...by an Anita Williams
impersonator?

I thought they stopped
that mess years ago.

Oh, no, these impersonators have
been coming out of the woodwork

-since the Articulettes
reunion concert.
-Mm.

The least Dani
could have done was find one

that vaguely resembled
the original.

I mean, this person
looks nothing like me.

What was she thinking?

-Clearly, she wasn't.
-Thinking

before she acts out has
never been Dani's strong suit.

She's mostly id
with a shockingly fragile ego.

I rue the day
she ever met Bill Hamilton.

You think this is about Bill?

When is it not about Bill?

Every time that man hurts her,

her self-destructive tendencies
go into overdrive

and we're left
to clean up the mess.

I really wish Dani would stop
giving Bill and Hayley

so much mental real estate.

If she doesn't stop,
this cycle will continue,

and all she'll do is just keep
finding ways to numb the pain.

Dani's been
way too quiet lately.

Hmm, are you complaining?

I'm on guard. It'll be
just like her to fake us out

with peace and calm
before she erupts again.

Well, she seems
to have heard me this time.

I didn't leave room
for any misinterpretation.

I said Dani straight
about where things stand

-between the two of us.
-Mm.

Then I hope she stays
in her lane for all our sakes.

Hopefully Dani
will finally grasp

that there's no chance of you
two ever getting back together

and she can move on,

find a healthy relationship
of her own.

-I feel sick.
-Oh. Do you need to throw up?

I need hydration.

And to figure out
how to resolve this situation

before my parents find out.

Hey, don't worry about it, okay?

I'm not gonna tell anybody
what happened.

What Dani Dupree
does in Vegas...

I-I appreciate that.

With everything that's going on
in all of our lives,

I don't want to add
to the chaos.

Yeah. I got it.

-Besides, your parents--
here you go...
-Thank you.

...they mean too much to me to
ever want to add any more chaos

to their lives.

Especially after everything
Uncle Ted did

-to Aunt Nicole.
-Ooh.

Could you not refer to my sister
as "Aunt Nicole"

until after our marriage
is annulled?

Dani, it's not like we're
blood relatives. It's okay.

You think entertainment
reporters and social media

are gonna care about that?

All that matters to them
are appearances.

I can see the headlines now.

"Ex-supermodel
marries sister's nephew."

-[chuckles]
-Not to mention what my girls
will have to say about it.

Ah. Your girls.

Um, don't you mean
"their father"?

That is what all the secrecy
is about, right?

You don't want
your first husband to find out

about your second.

[crying]

Baby, I'm so sorry.

How-how could Doug be dead?

I just talked to him.

I know. These things
are difficult to process.

No. Maybe he made a mistake.
Jacob made a mistake.

I'm-I'm gonna call him back and
tell him it's all a big mistake.

It was some other woman's
husband in that car.

Honey, the police
wouldn't make a call like that

unless they were sure.

[shuddering]

So this is real?

I'm afraid so.

-But I don't want it to be.
-I know.

I w-- I was so angry at him
the last time we talked.

[shuddering]

Doug died thinking
I was mad at him.

Tho-Those can't be
the last words he heard me say.

It's too cruel.

Doug knew exactly how you felt
about him.

Don't ever doubt that.

[shuddering]

And I'm here, baby.
I've got you.

How could he have been
so stupid?!

To get drunk and
get behind the wheel of a car?

How-how could he risk
his life like that?

Did...
[shuddering]

Didn't he care
about the twins or me

or-or anyone who needed him?

It sounds like
he wasn't thinking clearly.

Because he was drunk.

[sniffles]
Jacob said there was a flask.

-[crying]
-What else did Jacob say?

That-that-that I have
to go back.

I need to go back
and identify his things.

There was a fire,
so there's no bo...

[hyperventilating]

Right. There's nothing
you need to do this minute.

I, uh... I have
to call the twins.

Donnell worships his father,

and Deanna is--
she's such a daddy's girl.

How am I-- how am I gonna tell
them that their father is...

[crying]

-I can't bear to say it again!
-All right, all right.

Take a breath. Take a breath.

Just let the kids
have a few more minutes

-of their father
still being alive.
-[hyperventilating]

And no matter what happens,

the three of you
will come out all right.

I'll make sure of it.

[crying]

Thank you, Ned. Yeah. As always,
we appreciate your discretion.

Please keep me posted.

Hmm.

Thank God we have
a kick-ass publicist.

This family has relied on Ned

for so many things
over the years.

Well, he'll do everything
in his power

to make sure Dani and Andre's...

I suppose we have
to call it a marriage

stays out of the press.

I hate to say it, Daddy, but
I think this is beyond even Ned.

The genie was let out
of the bottle the second

that impersonator posted
that picture on social media.

She already has 10,000 hits,
and the number's still rising.

That person should not
be allowed to benefit

from Dani's poor judgment.

Ned will do what he can to get
that post taken down ASAP.

Well, hopefully before someone
with more followers reposts it

and shares it with the world.

Oh, baby,
don't get your hopes up

about Dani moving on
with someone else anytime soon.

It's just not in the cards.

Why? Because you're just so hard
to get over?

-[chuckles] You said it, not me.
-Mm.

You know,
how else could you explain

the overreaction she had
to our marriage? You know?

Dani and I were over a long time
before the papers were served.

You know,
she just didn't want to see it.

It's probably because she had
this...

I don't know, this intense
emotional connection to me

from the day we met.

And you didn't?

Well, yeah,
I was attracted, of course.

You know? And I loved Dani
very much at one point, but...

[sighs] Okay, at the risk of
being accused of mansplaining--

-Which you're gonna do anyway,
Bill. [chuckles]
-All right, well, baby, look,

men typically have
an easier time moving on

from failed relationships,
right, than women do.

It's got something to do
with our ability

-to compartmentalize things.
-Also called

"the ability to not give a damn
when it's convenient."

Oh, you can call it
what you like,

but it helps to explain
why we're better able

to clear away the dead wood in
business and our personal lives.

Okay. Of course,
Dani's gonna indulge

in her occasional fling
here and there,

but I doubt
that she's ready for anything

as serious as what she and I had

anytime soon, if ever.

[sighs]

I hate to admit
you might be right.

Hmm. Yeah, well, then don't.

I already know I am.

Better get to the office.

-Mwah.
-All right.

[grunts]

-I'll see you there later.
-Okay.

Oh, my God.

BILL:
Who is that, Caroline again?

-[Hayley scoffs]
-Am I gonna have to dock her pay

for gossiping on my time?

You're literally
not gonna believe this.

What was that you were saying
about it being a long time

before Dani could move on?

Why the hell would I give a damn
what Bill thinks

about our temporary
marital status?

[chuckles] Tell that to somebody
who doesn't know you.

Okay, fine. I care.

But what about you?

How would you feel
about Ashley finding out?

[chuckles]
I could think of worse things.

-This is what I love about us.
-Hmm?

We can be completely honest.
And when feelings come up,

we just...

deal with it.

Yeah.

I'm kind of getting used
to this whole...

"being real with somebody."

Maybe our marriage isn't
such a bad thing after all.

[chuckles]
I could be convinced of that.

[phone buzzing]

I thought we were
in the cone of silence.

Uh, yeah, I had to turn it on
whenever I ordered the car.

I forgot to turn it off.

Uh, one second.

[clears throat]
Hey, Aunt Nicole.

What's up?

I need to see you, Andre.

Can you come
to my parents' house right away?

Uh, yeah, sure.
Is everything okay?

I will explain
when you get here.

All right. Be right there.

He's on his way.

What did my sister want?

No clue.

Uh, she asked me
to come by your parents' house.

Do you think she knows?

Nah. How could she?

It's probably something
to do with Uncle Ted.

-You're probably right.
-Yeah.

My sister has better things
to think about than me.

All right,
I'll see you when I get back.

Yes. And hopefully by then

the lawyer
will have made it official

and we can go back
to being retroactively single.

Uh, and dating.

-And...
-Hmm?

No...!

Go before I marry you again.

All right.

How's that accident report
coming?

Almost done.

But one thing is bothering me.

Yeah? What's that?

Well, Doug was a heart surgeon,

a family man,

a respected, upstanding member
of the Fairmont Crest community.

That doesn't make him immortal.

Yeah, but why was he speeding
down the highway

mad drunk in the early hours
of the morning?

-[grunts]
-Why wouldn't he call
a rideshare?

Because drunk makes you stupid.

Doug and I, we may have had
an unconventional marriage,

but we-we still loved
each other very much.

-I know.
-No, you don't!

I know what you think,

what-what everybody thinks.

[sniffles] That I was
a terrible wife to Doug.

I mean...
[shuddering]

I mean... [sniffles]
look at where I am right now.

H-How could I have been
having...

having sex with you in...

[sniffles] in a hotel suite
in Puerto Rico when...

[shuddering]

...when all the time
the-the father of my kids

was dead in some ravine?

What-what kind of person
does that make me, Joey?

You're not to blame
for your husband getting drunk

and running off the road.

It was an accident.

Pure and simple.

-A horrible accident.
-[sniffles]

Are you sure about that?

What are you asking me?

You didn't have a hand in this,
did you, Joey?

I never thought a Dupree
would go for a Vegas wedding,

but you go, Dani.

She looks so happy, doesn't she?

You being serious right now?

What, about being happy
for your ex?

Of course.

[chuckles]
I mean, all I've ever wanted

was for Dani to wish us well
and move on with her life.

She may not have been able
to do the first part,

but that doesn't mean
I have to be as petty as she is.

I wish her and Andre
all the happiness in the world.

Look, this is not some kind
of game, Hayley, okay?

This is my family
we're talking about.

You mean your former family,
Bill?

I'm your wife now,

and apparently Dani's
Andre Richardson's.

Which seems to bother you.

Mind telling me why?

-Do I really need
to spell it out for you?
-Yes, you do.

And quickly,
because your reaction's giving

-all kinds of red flags
right now.
-Listen,

I couldn't care less about
what the hell Dani does, okay?

What I'm concerned about is how
it's gonna affect my children.

You mean
your two grown-ass daughters?

Yes. One of whom just went
through a major trauma.

[sighs]

I know. And...

that was awful for Chelsea.

For all of you.

But that doesn't mean

Dani marrying Andre is going
to affect Chelsea's recovery.

See, that's where you're wrong,
baby.

Okay?
You couldn't be more wrong.

Life was just beginning to get
back to normal for Chelsea,

and then her mother turns around
and pulls a stunt like this?

That's because Dani always has
to be the center of attention.

And she'll get it, too.

Even at the expense
of her daughter's well-being.

Swear. What?

[sighs]

I can just imagine
the negative press

that this whole... Vegas
adventure is gonna generate.

You're sure that's
the only reason you're upset?

Hayley, baby, okay, look, I...

We can't keep replaying this
every time Dani acts up, okay?

I don't have time to keep
reassuring you of my devotion

to you and only you.

I just...

I'm late for work.

[sighs]

Bill!

Wait!

Babe! Babe!

[sighs]

You better
not compartmentalize me.

Uh, Miss Anita.

Hey. Good morning.

-Senator.
-Andre.

Thank you for coming.

Yeah, I came over
as quickly as I could.

Hope I didn't keep you waiting.

You're here.

That's all that matters.

Hey, Auntie, it's good...

Don't you mean "sister-in-law"?

Would you mind explaining this?

[clears throat]

I thought Jacob said
it was an accident.

He did.

Did he give you any reason
to doubt it was?

No.

But you do.

I-I don't know what to think,
but I...

I have to ask.

I couldn't live with myself
if I didn't ask.

You've always disliked Doug.

I have no respect for the man.

I thought you could do better.

But that's no reason
for me to want him dead.

You've been pushing his buttons
lately.

And I know he was gambling last
night, probably at your casino.

And I was here with you.

Don't remind me.

Just like I'm here with you
right now.

You know I would never hurt you.

Because harming Doug
would do just that.

So you're saying you had
nothing to do with his death?

Adamantly and unequivocally.

Yes, Leonard, I-I'm-I'm sure.

This is what Andre
and I both want.

Uh-huh. Yeah, so if you can just
do what you can to contain this

before it gains
any more traction. [sniffles]

Thank you. I appreciate it.

[sighs]

Geez!

Knock much?

You can't just barge in here
anytime you want.

Who was that? Hmm?

TMZ looking for a quote?

Or maybe Page Six?

-What are you going on about?
-Oh, I just figured

that the media
might want a statement

from the spontaneous
and unpredictable Dani Dupree,

who apparently just lost
her mind

and married a man half her age.

Why are you wasting
your time and energy

overthinking a simple DUI?

My gut tells me something's off.

Doug McBride was a lush

who got wasted
before getting behind the wheel

of his fancy car.

Now, whatever else he was
and whatever else he did...

...that's the way
he ended his life.

Period.

I'm just glad no one else
got hurt by his foolishness.

On that we can agree.

Then file the damn report
and let's get back

to solving actual crimes.

Doug McBride has taken up
enough time for one morning.

To put it simply...

...I had nothing to do
with Doug's death.

I'm sorry.

I-I should have known better.

No apology necessary.

You're going through
an enormous amount of stress.

My mind is all over the place.

Was there anything I could
have done to prevent this?

If I... [sniffles]
if I had insisted

that Doug get help
for his drinking and gambling,

would he still be alive?

Playing the "what if" game
will only drive you crazy.

And with everything else
that you'll be going through,

it only makes it worse.

Why don't you take
a nice, long, hot shower?

Your muscles are in knots.

And with everything
that's coming for you

in the next few days,

you need to find
every chance you can to relax.

Jacob said
I should take care of myself.

Wise man.

For a cop.

A shower does sound nice.

While you're doing that,
I'll, uh...

I'll order some breakfast,

and then we'll get packed
and get you home.

Joey?

Thank you.

For taking such good care of me.

[shuddering]

I don't know how I'd get
through this without you.

We tried to reach Dani.

I take it you two were together?

Yeah, we just flew in.

Our phones have been off.

And it didn't occur
to either of you?

No, as far as we knew, no.

I can't believe
this woman posted this.

She didn't even ask.

I didn't know
she was taking pictures of us.

So the pictures
are what you're concerned about?

Not getting drunk and marrying
my daughter in Vegas?

[sighs] I know how all of this
might look, but...

I don't think you do.

I am so disappointed, Andre.

Now, I've come to expect
wildness from Dani,

but I expected better from you.

As did I.

I thought you cared
about my sister.

I do. Very much.

Well, you've got
one hell of a way of showing it.

If you really had real feelings

for my daughter, you'd have
the integrity and class

to be up-front about it,

not drag her off
to some quickie wedding.

There was
no dragging involved, sir.

And, due respect,
neither Dani nor I

owed anybody an explanation.

We didn't need permission.

So you planned this?

Things just spiraled, Auntie.

Unfortunately,
that is on-brand for Dani.

[sighs]
Excuse me.

Look, come on. Dani didn't do
this. This is all on me.

So this asinine wedding
was your idea?

Oh, please, Daddy.

Andre is just trying
to let Dani off the hook.

We all know my sister
doesn't do anything

she doesn't want to do.

Dani's been through a lot
she hasn't wanted to do,

starting with her divorce.

And while her reactions
to things may be a bit unusual,

I think the fact that she's
gotten through it all with grace

and with strength
is to her credit.

Are you actually trying
to defend my sister to me?

That shouldn't be necessary,
Auntie.

But, yeah, I am.

As much as I love her,
Dani has a way of throwing

not only her own life
but everyone else's into chaos.

And in case the two
of you haven't noticed,

she is not the only one
in this family

who's had her life blown up.

The rest of us would like
a break from the endless drama.

I know. Okay?

And I'm sorry.

So what do you intend
to do about it?

There's nothing for any of you
to worry about.

The situation is being handled.

Handled how?

Dani's having our marriage
annulled as we speak.

You were the one who said

we shouldn't spend
so much time together.

And yet here you are,

busting into my house
and insulting me.

Get the hell out.

I'm not going anywhere
until you explain this.

Well, I'll admit the photo
quality isn't that great,

but the framing is good.

And, overall,
I think it's a flattering shot.

I'm not talking about the
quality of the damn picture.

Okay? I'm talking
about the ridiculousness,

the idiocy that it represents.

My days of explaining myself
to you are over.

Your child bride has to deal
with your mess. I don't.

So why don't you go on home
to her?

I'm sure she's waiting
for someone to slice bananas

into her Frosted Flakes.

[scoffs]
You have the gall to stand here

and make digs about the age
difference between me and Hayley

when your new husband
was still playing with blocks

when you and I
were on our honeymoon?

-Sounds like someone's jealous.
-Look, look, look.

Dani, look,
get this through your head.

Okay? The only reason
I give a damn

about anything that you do

is because of how it will affect
our daughters.

Now, it's past time for you
to start thinking about somebody

other than yourself.

You need to grow up.

Stop acting
like a petulant child.

-You first.
-Look, if you have

a shred of dignity left,

you will have this
ridiculous marriage annulled

before Naomi and Chelsea
find out about it.

That is,
if they haven't already.

Score.

On my way.

Got to go.
Smash-and-grab on K Street.

Good.
Go after some real bad guys.

Whatever, man.

[phone buzzing]

It's about time.

Everything went off
without a hitch.

You're sure
you covered all your tracks?

You don't have to worry.

As far as the world's concerned,

Doug McBride's death
was a tragic accident

and nothing more.

I forgot my briefcase.

I know.

I tried calling after you,

but you ran out of here
like a bat out of hell.

Did you get all the way
to the office

before you realized
you didn't have it?

I didn't go to the office.

Where'd you go, Bill?

I went to see Dani.

At least this ill-advised
marriage is being annulled.

That shows
Dani's coming to her senses.

Until the next crisis.

Well, I think we need
to take things a day at a time

where your sister is concerned.

I am a little Dani'd out
for the day, if you don't mind.

Although I do feel terrible
that I unloaded on Andre.

Oh, I'm sure he understands
that we're all under stress.

You know what really gets to me?

Even though
they're not really married,

Andre was more loyal to Dani
than my husband was to me.

Oh, sweetheart, don't...

And before I get
any more pitying looks,

I am going to be on my way.

Things will be better.

Oh, I wish I had your faith.

I'm headed to the hospital.
I love you guys.

Love you more.

[door opens]

[door closes]

I hate seeing Nicole
in so much pain.

Yeah, so do I.

Let's look on the bright side.

At least Dani's finally starting

to face the consequences
of her actions head-on.

From your lips, my darling.

From your lips.

What did my sister want?

Well, they saw a photo
of our Vegas wedding online.

Did you know that woman
was taking our picture?

No.

Guess it's good marketing.

Anita Williams' daughter

married by
an Anita Williams impersonator.

Okay, wait a minute. You're
pretty calm about all this.

Especially since you were
the one who insisted

that no one in your family
know about our wedding.

What's done is done.

Oh.

Okay. Well, at least
you were spared the blowup.

I'm sorry
you got dragged into this.

Nah, it's okay.

Hey, no matter what,

we're always gonna be there
for each other.

I was happy to be able
to help you out today.

I explained to Aunt Nicole
and your parents

that we both agreed
that our marriage was a mistake

and that we're having it
annulled.

About that...

Change of plans?

[chuckles]
In what way?

How would you feel
about staying married

a little while longer?
