I think we need a bigger house.

Oh, sweetheart, no.

That's your problem, you're never satisfied.

Course I am.

We have 14 rooms,

10,000 square feet and a putting green.

Why would we need a bigger house?

Because I need a bigger garage for all my Ferraris.

Can't park them outside;

neighbors will think we're bragging.

Dr. Mancini?

Yes, dear?

How are my stocks doing?

Before I tell you, you should know,

there's a guy in the E.R. with a big boil on his butt.

What?

Doctor?

Dr. Mancini?

Doctor?

Doctor? Doctor?!

Doctor?

You're wanted in the E.R.

Guy with a boil.

And you owe me ten bucks for the Thai food.

- Ten bucks? - Mm.

Driving a Ferrari now; you should be able to afford it.

Yeah, well, looks can be deceiving, take it from me.

Mm-hmm.

WOMAN: Southwest, stat.

Nurse Lopez to Maternity.

Southwest, stat.

- Oh, hi, honey. - Jane!

Oh, my God, you look terrible.

Michael, you're working yourself to death.

I know, but I got legal bills to pay, you know?

God, I hate lawyers.

Oh. What are you doing here?

Oh, I brought you some dinner... Thai food.

Oh, thanks, but I already ate.

But, listen, if you got ten bucks on you,

can you go down to the nurse's station and give it to Nurse Amy

before she garnishes my meager wages.

Sure, Michael. Try to get some sleep.

Oh, yeah, I did, and I had a nightmare.

God, I hate this hospital.

Never sleeping here again.

- See you. - See you.

Kyle, back from New York?

Hey, J.J., let me have a bottle of scotch.

Sure thing, boss.

How was New York?

Well, it was better than L.A.

Well, you live here, so you should try to make it work.

Yeah, well, that's gonna be kind of tough because my wife

and my brother followed me to New York

and they saw me with these two models.

Doing what?

They were coming out of my hotel room at 7:00 a.m.

7:00 a.m.

You weren't, by chance, loaded on this stuff, were you?

I had to fend for myself because you wouldn't give me a refill.

From the streets?

Are you crazy, Kyle?

You don't even know what that is.

I know that they make me feel better.

- Cheers. - Look, you can't do this.

You can't mix booze and pills like this.

Will you wake up?!

You got a problem!

Yeah, my wife kicked me out of the house.

And you're really handling it like a man, aren't you?

You know what, you're starting to piss me off.

You got to talk to her.

No, you know what, I am so sick of people say...

I'm not gonna talk to her, I'm not gonna say anything.

I am gonna protect Amanda.

"Protect"?

What does that mean, protect her?

It means I'm not gonna destroy her dreams.

If you're not gonna tell her, I will.

Oh, like hell you are. Get out of my office, man.

Don't push me out like this, Kyle.

Hey, hey, hey, hey! What's going on?

I can hear you guys all the way out in the club...

- Kyle! - The hell's the matter with you?

If Amanda thinks I'm cheating, I might as well prove her right.

Come on, you guys, stop it. Peter!

You got a lot of nerve, McBride!

Least I got some left.

Yeah, I'm putting in 200 grand on my own.

It's a sure thing, and I don't say that very often.

Listen, the guy I owe my life to is here.

I'll call you back.

Hey, how you doing?

Good.

Oh, man. True or false?

Once you drive one of these, you know what heaven is.

Oh, that's true, but try to explain it to your wife.

I mean, she doesn't understand that there can be love

between a man and his car.

Yeah, and a man and his money.

Well, that I wouldn't know about

since seeing as I can never hold on to it.

Which, uh, brings me to the bad news.

No, no, no, no, no. Come on, let's talk inside.

Yeah.

So, uh, can I get you something to drink?

A juice or a coffee?

Come on, you've already given me enough, huh?

Yeah, you don't mind if I help myself?

- Please. - Come on.

Listen, I might as well just say it.

I couldn't come up with the cash.

So you might as well figure me out of the deal.

Damn.

I'm sorry to hear that,

'cause, uh, I really wanted you along for the ride.

Well, if you could lend me a hundred thou,

I'd pay you back, with interest.

Michael, I would do anything for you.

You know that, right?

Mm-hmm.

But I never lend money to friends.

Ruins the relationship.

Yeah, I value our relationship, too.

Look, I got to get back to the hospital;

I got patients to save.

Thank, Perry.

Michael, wait.

There's another deal going down in a couple of days.

The buy-in is 150, but, for you...

The guy who kept my ticker ticking...

Come up with a hundred grand, I'll make up the difference.

Are you kidding me? Really?

Oh, man, I don't know what to say.

Say you'll make a few more calls.

I mean, an important guy like you,

you must know a lot of rich, generous people.

Tell them it's for charity.

Oh...

Just kidding.

You really had me going there.

Just trying to make my point, Michael.

Do whatever you have to do.

A hundred thousand will make you a million.

Probably more.

Really? How much more?

Hey, sky's the limit.

Well, I'll tell you what.

If the money's out there, I'll get it.

I swear I will.

All right, you know where I live.

Mm-hmm.

I'll talk to you soon.

Thanks.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Why wouldn't I be?

Well, I heard what happened in New York.

Oh, good for you.

- I'm late for a meeting. - Amanda.

You can pretend with a lot of people,

but you can't pretend with me.

Okay.

I married the greatest guy in the world,

and then he cheated on me.

End of story, end of marriage.

I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it.

Yeah, well, doesn't look like you got much last night.

I bet you Kyle didn't, either.

No, Kyle usually passes out around 10:00...

Give or take an hour, depending how much he's had to drink.

Come on, Amanda.

You know if people abuse alcohol,

it's usually for a reason.

A reason unknown to me.

And if he can't talk about it,

we don't have a relationship worth saving.

Have a good day.

You want to explain this?

Oh, you saw the personal ad.

Well, it's the next logical step in your search for Mr. Right.

Consider it a misstep.

"A woman of your dreams looking for the man of hers."

I thought it was a good hook.

"Professionals preferred, high income,

movie star looks, no doctors," underlined...

Oh, come on, you made that very clear.

- No more Coops, no more Peters. - What is this?

"If you dare, call 1-800-555-0199

for more information"?

Well, I didn't think you'd want any strangers

calling your office, so they dial the 800 number

and they get our mailing address.

And why would they do that?

Well, so we could get them the questionnaire

and they can send us their picture and resumes.

Now, be honest, it's pretty creative copy, huh?

Have you lost your mind?

You're advertising for a lover?

You've reduced me to this?

This is mortifying.

It's over.

Terminate the search.

You know what, I put a lot of work into this,

and you promised me a partnership.

You can't back out now.

I'm the boss, I can do what I want.

Oh, my God.

Look at all this.

Looks like you have an apology to make.

Looks like the ad worked, huh?

Oh, well...

I don't...

Well, you know, they're probably all dorky and lonely and ugly,

all those "-y" s.

Oh, my.

All right, listen to this.

"To my new love.

"Dare I dream again,

"open my heart to the miracle of a new love?

"My head says no, but still, I feel this connection to you,

"another heartbroken stranger on the rocky road

to a lasting relationship."

Oh, that's so sweet.

All right, big deal, he's a poet.

Oh, my God, and a serious babe.

Okay, he's not bad.

- Hm-mm. - But wait, no,

he's from over the hill; he's from the Valley.

Geographically undesirable.

He won't do.

But you know what, keep looking.

I don't want all these dorks to think that,

you know, they wasted a stamp.

Yeah, well, thanks for the vote of confidence, huh?

Don't let it go to your head.

And remember, Megan, if you spill the beans,

you'll be looking for a new job.

Afternoon.

I thought you could use this.

Oh, man.

Look, I was way out of line last night.

Yes, you were.

So, why are you even talking to me?

Because you're hurting, Kyle.

And so is Amanda.

She loves you so much.

Look, I don't want you

to get in the middle of this, okay?

Amanda and I will work it out.

You both have been so good to me.

- You gave me this job. - Look, Eve, you don't owe me.

But I do owe you.

You kept my past a secret against your better judgment.

I owe you my happiness.

I didn't have an affair in New York.

I would never do that to Amanda.

I know.

I think, deep down, Amanda knows that, too,

but, Kyle, God, you've got to clean up your act.

Guess I'm a mess, huh?

Yes, you are.

So, you want to hear my plan?

- Do I have a choice? - No,

not really.

You clean up, you sober up,

and tomorrow night, I'll deliver Amanda to the club.

After that, it's up to you to plead your case.

Agreed?

Yeah.

All right.

Wait, Eve,

did you talk to Amanda about this?

She'll be here, don't worry.

You still love her, don't you, Kyle?

You have to ask?

Then show her.

Tomorrow night.

Mr. Andrews,

I know you don't care for me very much, but that aside,

I am your son-in-law again,

and I thought I might ask a favor.

You see, this huge investment opportunity

fell into my lap and, um...

What? How much?

A hundred grand.

Oh, yeah, yeah, I swear, I can pay you back in a week.

Oh, Jane would be very happy and very rich, too.

And you wouldn't have to kick the bucket...

Mr. Andrews?

Hello? Hello?

Michael.

What are you doing, huh?

Don't you know the rules?

You don't call your father-in-law

to try to borrow money because he calls your wife

and tells her to come home to Daddy.

She might have to. You see,

Jane and I might be homeless soon.

Oh, please, there's nothing worse

than a Beverly Hills doctor bitching about money.

Hey, you haven't seen my bank accounts lately.

You should be thankful for what you have.

Just think of all those children

that Dr. Burns is trying to help with his children's foundation.

Oh, sure, he'll help them, strangers.

But it comes to giving his best buddy a loan

and it's the big blow off.

Listen, Michael,

charity begins at home.

Do you know the staff here has raised

over a million dollars for those kids?

- Whoop-de-do. - Michael, sell the Ferrari,

use that cash to pay off your legal bills,

and stop with these "get rich quick" schemes.

In other words, stop living above your means.

I happen to like my means, people.

Well, then, rob a bank, shoplift,

steal the money, I don't care.

Just quit complaining.

I'm starving, Amy.

- I'll take you to dinner, come on. - Oh, thank you.

Thank you, guys.

Thank you.

I think I've finally seen the light.

Okay, let's see.

Kids won't mind if I borrow their funds for a week.

Great.

After all,

charity does begin at home.

My home.

- Hey, you. - Before you say anything,

I don't need any advice from a woman

who's only had two relationships in her life

and still thinks she's on her honeymoon.

Oh, oh, okay.

Insult me all you want, but it's not gonna push me away

and it's not gonna get me to stop caring.

Then care in somebody else's office.

I have a lot of work to do.

Amanda, you love Kyle,

Kyle loves you, so why don't you meet him halfway?

No.

You guys are gonna have to talk sometime,

what about tonight? You can come to the club with me.

You must be hard of hearing. No.

Excuse me, but I believe the correct answer here is yes.

I will not be bullied.

Besides, Kyle could have called, come by the apartment,

sent flowers, muffins, but he didn't.

And now I won’t want to see him ever again.

You could've called him, I mean, you could've sent him muffins.

Right, and who are you kidding?

We both know you want to see him.

I did, in New York, with two bimbos.

He didn't sleep with those women.

It's true.

Get out of my office.

Ryan, just go, I...

Both of you.

Amanda.

Out.

You know, I don't mind being in the hospital

so much when I'm healthy.

You got my message. Great.

'Cause, you know, I want in. I got the dough.

Yeah, I already called my friend in New York; I'm gonna

wire transfer the funds to him by close of business today.

Great, the sooner, the better. Here.

Listen, man, I don't know how to thank you.

Michael, you saved my life.

Like I could really put a price on that.

I'll call you when the deal goes down.

You're gonna be a rich man.

Yeah, and I'm gonna owe you about ten dinners.

I'll take them.

Okay.

- Call me. - All right.

Yes, I'm, uh, calling to confirm a reservation

under the name of Lewis.

Megan Lewis.

Right, I'm only gonna need the suite for a couple hours a day,

and I'd like to set up an account

and have the bill sent to my P.O. box.

Um, yes, I'm gonna have to call you back.

Thanks.

This is a surprise; what are you doing here?

Well, I was in the neighborhood

and thought maybe I could take you to lunch.

Got you a little something downstairs.

You are so sweet.

I would love to have lunch with you.

I just, I have so much work to do with this project for Lexi.

Yeah, is she, um, she sending you out of town or something?

What?

Well, you were making a by-the-hour hotel reservation

- or something. - No, no, you misunderstood.

There's no trip, no hotel.

It's just, uh, well, I can't go into details.

Lexi would kill me.

You know what, I really should get back to work.

Yeah, yeah, um,

will I see you tonight?

I'll be home pretty late.

Like last night and the night before.

Sure hope Lexi's paying you overtime.

Well, money isn't everything.

Bye.

Mm.

Ryan, um,

- thank you for the flowers. - Yeah.

Knock on my door when you get off work.

Don't worry about how late it is.

Okay.

- All right. - Bye.

Well, if it isn't Romeo coming to see his Juliet.

Till death do you part?

More like work keeping us apart, no thanks to you.

- Excuse me? - Well, you got Megan so busy

with this big project of yours,

she doesn't even have time to eat.

Oh, did she say big project?

I think that Megan is just trying to impress you, honey.

The only thing that Megan is handling right now

are her regular clients.

You probably just misunderstood her.

Well, I've been doing an awful lot of that lately.

Mm, that's your problem, not mine.

It's always nice seeing you, Ryan.

ANSWERING MACHINE 1:03 p.m.

Hi, look I didn't want to call you at work

and talk on the phone.

Oh, I-I do want to talk, Amanda.

Eve said that you might come by the club tonight.

I hope that you do.

I miss you so much.

Oh, there's nothing I hate more than doing laundry.

- Mm. - But after tomorrow,

we can hire somebody else to do it.

We can? My dad said that he turned you down,

wouldn't lend you a penny.

Mm-hmm, it was his mistake, too.

But I managed to put together a few bucks on my own,

and I invested it in a sure thing.

A sure thing, Michael?

Please tell me you didn't.

Don't worry.

My new best friend, Perry Hutchins,

gave me a tip,

and by the end of business tomorrow,

our money problems are gonna be over.

Oh, right, right.

Shoot, we're out of detergent; I'll be right back.

- All right. - Hi, Ryan.

- Hey, Jane. - Hi, Ryan.

What's going on?

Another exciting evening.

Doing my laundry, watching TV,

going to bed early alone.

Trust me, I've been there.

But why are you sleeping alone?

I thought you and Megan were an item.

Yeah, she's working nights all of a sudden.

Oh.

It's not what you think.

Oh, I wasn't thinking anything.

Hey, um,

did it ever bother you that Megan was, uh,

you know, a professional woman?

You mean, a hooker?

Mm, yeah, maybe it bothered me a little.

But I got over it.

Why? Does it bother you?

No, it's in the past.

You don't think she'd ever go back

to that kind of life, do you?

Nah, not Megan.

It's not who she is anymore.

Yeah, that's what I think, too.

I got your message.

I didn't know you play the piano.

Surprise, surprise.

Uh, what message is it that you're referring to?

Uh...

the message you left on our machine.

Oh, right.

Right.

I almost forgot 'cause it was, like, 12 hours ago.

Probably had to work late.

Work before anything, right?

You're drunk.

And you are right.

As always.

I actually play much better drunk.

Fine.

You-you wanted to talk?

Why don't you tell me why you're drinking so much?

Where should I start?

You know, I like to drink.

Mm-hmm, gives me something to do.

Dulls the pain.

What pain?

The pain that I feel when I look at you.

You know, if you're... if you're trying to hurt me,

you already succeeded in New York.

Yeah, well, I'm hurting, too, in case you haven't noticed.

How can I not? I can smell it on your breath.

What does that mean?

What are you... that I drink too much?

You know what, if I drink too much, that's my problem.

It has nothing to do with you

or all this pressure that you put on me.

What pressure? What are you talking about?

All this baby crap!

Baby crap? It's what we both want.

No, it's what you want. It...

It's what you want, okay?

And when you want something,

when Amanda Woodward wants something,

you make it happen, okay?

You get... everybody else, get out of the way

because it is going to freaking happen!

If you didn't want to have a baby, why didn't you

say something before we made all our plans?

Before we bought the lot? Before we hired the architect?

Would it have made a difference? I don't think so.

You know, I am so sick of being led around on a chain.

Fine. I'm...

I'm glad we had our talk.

By the way...

I want you out of the apartment

and out of my life.

Good.

After all, you're holding the chain.

Hey, I got your message.

What's up?

Kyle's things... You can take them

to the club, dump them in the trash.

I don't really care.

What, you just made up your mind

- your marriage is over? - No, Kyle did.

You know, I didn't chicken out last night.

I went to see him.

And he was drunk off his ass, as usual.

But it wasn't the liquor talking when he said

I was the problem.

Good news is, I won't be much longer.

Put this stuff in the back with the others.

Here you go, Marty.

- Got it? - Yeah.

Hey, excuse me.

Thank you.

Perry?

Perry, hello?

Uh, excuse me.

Um, what's happening here?

Where's Mr. Hutchins?

Don't know any Hutchins.

Yeah, of course you do.

He owns the place. He lives here.

All I know is a movie company shot here a couple weeks ago.

Now they're gone, and we're just breaking down the sets.

Movie, sets... this does not make any sense at all.

I'll give him a call.

The cellular number you called

is no longer in service.

Oh, my...

I just saw that computer geek

of ours out in the hall.

You didn't tell him anything, did you?

- No. I know the rules. - All right, good.

So, bring me up to date.

Got a list of our Mr. Rights?

Um, not yet.

I have supervised the interviews of 25 eligibles.

I've had them fill out our questionnaires,

and with Ralph's new computer program,

uh, we should narrow this group down to five,

and I can give you a list by tomorrow.

Oh, great.

Then you can start dating them tomorrow.

Wait a minute. I thought the idea was for you to date them.

I'm dating Ryan.

I'm only asking you to have one drink with them.

Just check them out.

For what?

Well, all the important things:

bad breath, body odor, uh, bad skin.

You've got to be kidding me.

Honey, Sterling-Conway-Lewis.

Has a nice ring to it, remember?

Okay.

One date per finalist... That is it.

And look,

if you can get them to drink a lot,

try and follow them into the men's room

and just take a little peek, huh?

That is where I draw the line.

Hmm.

Well, it was worth a shot.

Ryan?

Ryan is Lexi's Mr. Right.

Uh, yeah, we're looking for Kyle McBride.

Buddies of his from New York.

Hey, man.

So, uh, is it the hangover, or are you guys a day early?

Ah, we had a little, uh, problem with our landlord,

so we thought we'd kick the Big A and head for the coast.

Good to see you, man.

Hey, good to see you guys.

Man, this place rocks.

Hey, man, thanks.

Scenery ain't bad, either.

So, uh, my boys are ready

to play as soon as you give the word.

How about tonight?

As long as you guys got a lead vocalist.

Ah, well, haven't found the right chick.

Hey, what did I tell you?

Man, you cannot make it in L.A. as a rock band

unless you got a lead vocalist.

What about the babe?

I mean, she's got a hip sound,

not to mention those eyes.

Pierce my soul.

That's not a bad idea.

Hey, Eve.

You want to play in a band with my pals?

I have my own band, thanks.

Well, I just gave your band the night off.

What time you need her?

Uh, be here at 6:00 for rehearsal and sound check.

Come on, let's go in back.

That's him.

That's the bastard. That's Hutchins.

You know him?

Yeah, but his name isn't Hutchins.

It's Roy Burroughs.

Or Steve Hill or Sam Shorey.

Oh, no.

- He has aliases? - Yeah, man.

Enough to fill a banquet hall.

You see, he moves from state to state

targeting rich doctors,

hooking them into investment scams.

But, uh, first of all, I'm not a rich doctor,

and second, he was a patient.

You know, he had a serious heart condition.

Yeah, he's got a heart condition.

He's been known to pop a truckload of decongestants,

get his heart rate up,

make it seem like the doctor's saving his life.

We've been after him for years.

Sorry, Doc.

I wouldn't count on seeing your money again.

I think I'm going to be sick.

I'll tell you what, huh?

I'll walk you out to your car.

Hey! Hey, that's my car!

What are they doing to my car?

- Repo guys. - Repo guys?

What?

Oh, I see he's still using the Ferrari trick, huh?

You mean that's really not my car?

Well, you see, what he does is, uh...

Please, please, please, that's enough, okay?

I've heard enough for one day.

Hey, Mike, I tell you what.

I'll get you a ride home in a squad car, huh?

It's not a Ferrari, but it does have a siren.

I don't care if they are friends of yours, Kyle.

- I'm never singing with them again. - Okay.

What is wrong with you?

They're vile, okay? They reek of booze,

they reek of dope, and they act like animals.

Hey, who the hell cares? You know what?

You can start an empire with these guys.

Oh, please. Like that's what I really want.

Come on. Think about it!

I'm an ex-con whose husband doesn't know about my past.

Is that registering anywhere in

that booze-soaked brain of yours?!

You register this:

I strongly suggest that you continue

to sit in with these guys.

Is that a threat?

You want a job?

You are a mean drunk.

Go to hell, Kyle.

- What'd you say to her? - Women.

You keep their secrets for them,

and still, they got no damn loyalty.

Been trying to get a hold of you all day, Kyle.

Don't you check your messages? Got your stuff at my place.

Amanda.

She wastes no time.

You come home with me, get a good night's sleep,

and we'll talk about what's going on with you.

You know what? I'm all talked out, Ryan.

I didn't say you had a choice, Kyle.

Don't you ever try to hit me again, Kyle.

The keys to my apartment. You do whatever you want.

I'm tired of being your nursemaid.

Hey, hon, where you been?

I called the hospital, the office.

Listen, you better sit down. I got something to tell you.

No, no, shh, you sit down.

It can wait. I got a surprise for you.

Okay, this is for giving you a hard time about the new car

and for investing our money in your patient's deal.

Michael, I want you to know I believe in you.

Okay.

Open it.

I bought us new Rolexes.

You know, just like the ones that we saw in the window

on Michigan Avenue when you were in med school.

Do you like it?

It's beautiful.

But you got to take it back.

No, Michael, I can't.

I-I got it engraved.

Look.

"In love and trust, Jane."

Michael, is something wrong?

Oh, no, no, Jane.

I'm-I'm just overcome with emotion.

Oh.

Here.

It's like you said before, this is just the beginning.

No more laundry, no more takeout,

no more cheap watches.

Oh, Michael.

Never been happier.

I love you.

Ryan?

Ryan, are you home?

What are you doing here?

Um, just crashing with Ryan.

Unless-unless you got a problem with that.

If I do, I'll make sure to tell Ryan.

Where is he?

Uh, he's in the shower.

Give this to him when he gets out.

Look, Amanda.

I'm going through something.

Damn right you are.

I don't know you anymore.

I'm not sure I want to.

Perfect little Amanda.

You know something, I'm glad you didn't get pregnant.

Because no kid could ever live up to your expectations.

God knows I can't.

Finally.

We agree on something.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

And, uh, thank you, Dr. Mancini.

We do appreciate the support.

Ah, don't mention it.

I'm glad to be part of the children's foundation.

Though I can't contribute any money,

I can always be happy to contribute my time.

- Hmm. - Gentlemen, have a good day.

Thanks.

Michael, I'm not one to buy into emotion,

but what you said in there,

volunteering to be the treasurer of the children's foundation,

I was a little choked up.

Yeah, you know what, me, too.

But I'm looking forward to handling your money for you.

And, boy, those children are adorable, huh?

It's a big responsibility, you know?

- Ah, bigger, the better. - You sure?

You got, uh, Fourth of July, you got Easter,

Valentine's Day is around the corner.

And before you know it, it's Christmas. I know.

Is it me or is there more and more holidays every year?

Oh, hey, listen, you know, I think I should come down

to your office now and download

those accounting files off your computer.

No, uh, the hospital auditor's coming by this morning.

He's gonna finish the quarterly closing.

- No, he can't do that. - Yes, he can.

I'm the treasurer, duly elected.

I'm in charge of the books.

Okay.

It's good to see you taking your responsibilities so seriously.

You download the computer and I'll send him over.

Perfect. Don't want any trouble with an audit

- right out of the gate here. - Good.

- Okay. - Okay.

Hey, could we get a check?

Thanks.

So, I'm sorry Amanda couldn't join us.

But everything she said about you was true.

You sure sold me on the agency.

Yeah, she's gonna be glad to hear that.

So, I'll pop by the office tomorrow,

kick around some ideas.

Ryan?

- Did you hear what I said? - Yeah.

Um, you know what, I want to say hello to a friend.

You, uh, you mind?

I got to make a pit stop, anyway.

I'll see you outside.

There you go, sir.

Yes.

You should know, this is a first for me.

I'm not the type who normally responds to ads,

but, you know, when you wrote

that you were looking for a guy that...

Oh, you know what, um, let me stop you right there.

I'm not the woman looking for a guy,

I'm actually the... warm-up date.

This is a scam, right?

No, no, it's not at all.

It's just, um, the way that the woman

who placed the ad wanted it.

Um, she's just had a lot of

sort of romantic disappointment lately and...

Well, let's not disappoint her again.

I'd like you to get to know me.

But can I be honest with you?

I really hate this place.

- You mind if we go somewhere else? - Yeah.

I mean, no... I mean, um, yeah, I guess.

As long as it's not your house.

What did you have in mind, a restaurant or...?

How's The Ivy sound?

Oh, God, that sounds great.

Sounds really great.

Um, you know what, I'm just gonna have to get

- some change for the valet. - Oh, hey, forget it.

- It's on me. - You sure?

Absolutely.

Okay.

Thank you.

How come you're in the dark?

I hadn't noticed.

Why aren't you at the club?

I'm taking a couple of days off.

Why don't you have dinner with me tonight?

I swear, I won't mention Kyle.

There's nothing to mention.

My marriage is over.

Did you know that?

Amanda, whatever's going on with Kyle,

the two of you are gonna get through it somehow.

I don't think so.

You know, as much as it hurt to hear

some of the things he said, he was right.

It's my fault.

First, I destroy the man and then I destroy the marriage.

Amanda, don't do that to yourself.

I did the same thing to Peter.

You-you should ask him about it sometime.

I turned him into a drunk and then I drove him to cheat on me.

What am I gonna do without Kyle?

Hey, Pete.

Where the hell's Eve?

She called in sick, but we both know that's bull, right?

If she said she's sick, she's sick.

You know, man, I don't get it.

I am offering her the opportunity of a lifetime

to play with my band, she blows me off.

Maybe she doesn't want to be around you.

Is that some kind of dig?

Take it as a warning.

Flush the pills down the toilet and knock off the booze.

Yeah, well, I got one for you, too.

A warning.

Don't believe everything your songbird tells you.

Or should I say jailbird?

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing.

Forget it.

I asked you a question.

I want an answer or I go to Amanda with your dirty laundry.

Your wife spent the last 15 years... in prison.

What?

Hey, come here.

What are you talking...?

She killed a guy back in high school, back in Oakhurst,

the place where the two of you got hitched.

Now she's out on parole and living with her best friend.

Guess who.

Amanda.

Who would've been her cell mate, but you know Amanda,

she bought her way out of it.

Who told you all this?

Eve.

And Amanda.

Day of your wedding.

Partners in crime begged me not to tell you.

They begged me, but, you know, promises are made to be broken.

Just like marriages.

Right, Pete?
