00:00Oh, dear. Uh, this probably wasn't a good idea. You want to go someplace else?

00:15No. I'm fine.

00:18Okay. Okay.

00:20Good evening. Uh, could, uh, well, would you like a table?

00:26Well, actually, we're not going to eat, but we're going to drink, so we'd love a table while we're doing it.

00:30Anything for friends.

00:31Great. It's okay. I think we can manage.

00:36Well, you can do me a thank you. I appreciate it.

00:45Oh, excuse me. You. Wait. You.

00:50That's all right.

00:51Hi.

00:52I'm a little short-handed tonight. I'd be happy to take your order. I believe it would be a sweet sherry for you.

00:58Very good. I need a drink, please.

01:01I would like a double martini, half gin, half vodka, with a little orange on top, okay?

01:07Yes, ma'am.

01:11Did you get a chance to talk to him?

01:15He left us the other day. He swore to me that Victoria is now completely in his past.

01:22You don't sound like you believe him.

01:24I just wish that he'd been honest with me in the first place.

01:30Well, he's trying to make it up to you now, don't you think?

01:33Oh, you don't understand.

01:37Ever since Robert, it's very hard for me. I'm just afraid of being hurt again.

01:47Oh, sweetheart. I think it's too late for that. Just look at you. You look hurt already.

01:54Here we are. Sweet sherry. And I had him put two orange slices for you.

02:02Thank you.

02:03Yeah.

02:04Looks like you're needed.

02:05Yeah, I'm kind of stretched in every direction tonight.

02:09Would you consider doing me a favor?

02:12It depends.

02:14Well, it's, uh... You remember those drinks Felicia made up? People are ordering them like crazy.

02:20They must be very popular. Bubblegum vodka surprises in Shanghai.

02:25Over-the-top things. And I have no idea what they are, how to make them, and I was wondering if you would consider...

02:30You fired me, remember?

02:32No, I didn't. That was for Halifax. This would be for me.

02:41Why don't you just go do it? I need time to unwind. So go, okay?

02:47Okay, but I'm doing this for Mac, okay?

02:53Right. Of course. Well, for Mac, sure.

02:58The natives are restless. A bunch of animals tonight, I guess.

03:08Very good. Would you tell him that? Very good. And I'll have another.

03:12Another? Another what?

03:29How are you doing? Fine. I've got to use another drink.

03:34You finished that one already?

03:36For the day I had, I practically inhaled this thing.

03:39You ready to tell me about it?

03:42I don't think you want to be bored by what's going on with me.

03:45Yes, I do. I do.

03:50Shawn and I went to see Lucas today.

03:52Together? Yes, together.

03:55But it didn't go well.

03:58Lucas is great. He is. It's Bobby.

04:03She's always, like, hovering all over me.

04:05She's just, like, ready... looking like she's ready to pounce on me every time I'm around him.

04:08She just makes me nervous, you know?

04:11I don't think you want to be bored by what's going on with me.

04:14She's just, like, ready... looking like she's ready to pounce on me every time I'm around him.

04:17She just makes me nervous, you know?

04:19You sure you're not being overly sensitive?

04:23No, I'm not.

04:25Well, hopefully it'll get easier with time.

04:30I don't think it'll ever get easier.

04:32Bobby sat there and he's not going to let me see Lucas at all without her unless Shawn is with me.

04:40You know, considering how difficult it was for both of you during the custody hearing,

04:45I don't think you can blame her.

04:48I mean, you have to try and see it from her point of view.

04:50Whose side are you on?

04:52I'm not on anybody's side.

04:53I'm trying to help.

04:54Just like Shawn. You sound just like him.

04:59I know how upsetting this is for you.

05:04Well, Shawn is on her side. He doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

05:07Oh, that's not true.

05:08Yes, it's true. It is.

05:11I mean, he thinks I'm getting everything that I deserve because of the way I acted at that hearing.

05:14It wasn't my fault.

05:16He just doesn't ever try to understand anything about me.

05:19He doesn't understand how I feel, how empty I feel when I don't have Lucas, you know?

05:24He's just blown anything. There's no way we're ever going to get back together.

05:27There's no way. I don't even care.

05:31It's so painful.

05:32Shawn and I used to love each other.

05:35Forget us, you know? Stupid, stupid, stupid me.

05:38Bill? Bill? Come here.

05:41What's up?

05:42You got your dancing shoes on, honey?

05:44Got my what?

05:45Dancing shoes. I want to twirl around the dance floor, okay?

05:47But what about my customers here?

05:48I'll take care of them.

05:50Yeah, you go ahead. Don't...

05:51This is the strangest evening.

05:53In that case, I'll leave, honey. But that strange...

05:56You'll leave?

05:57I'll leave.

05:59How have I seen you for a while? Where have you been?

06:03Oh, well, I was in Europe for a while.

06:06You were in Europe for a while? Oh, wonderful.

06:08Did you have fun?

06:10Hi, Holly. What the hell is she doing?

06:14I think she's trying to forget her troubles.

06:21Seems to be doing a bang-up job of it.

06:24That's Tiffany.

06:27I just wish she would realize that I'm not the enemy of that song.

06:31Oh, deep down she knows that.

06:33It's just hard. She feels betrayed.

06:36Look, Holly, I didn't betray her.

06:38All I want her to do is face the facts.

06:41Bobby and Tony have custody of Lucas.

06:43Now she has to get on with her own life. Our life.

06:47She's trying.

06:49It's just, you know, she can't do it overnight.

06:52She really loves you.

06:55Time has a way of putting things in perspective.

06:58I just hope you're right. I just hope you're right.

07:00The longer we're separated, the harder it is to communicate,

07:03and the harder it is to get back together again.

07:16Have you heard from Mac and Felicia?

07:19I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said.

07:21Mac and Felicia, how are they doing? Do you know?

07:25Uh, yeah, they're safe.

07:27Felicia and Mrs. Maxie are not, but she and Mac are just hanging in there.

07:31Good. Good.

07:33I know what it's like to be in their shoes.

07:36Yeah, I know you do.

07:38Look, by the way, I never got a chance to thank you

07:40for putting them in touch with those friends of yours.

07:43I really wanted to tell you that day at the Brownstone, but I...

07:46I know you didn't want to compromise my position.

07:49I appreciate that.

07:51Any leave for you?

07:53Not really.

07:55Our friend Ryan has a hell of a way of covering his tracks,

07:58but I think we're getting close to the proof

08:00we need to put him behind bars and overturn Felicia's conviction.

08:03If there's anything I can do to help, you know...

08:05Keep your fingers crossed, okay?

08:08Because if the DA found out what's going on,

08:11we'd all be in the soup, believe me.

08:14Sean Donnelly, you have some explaining to do.

08:17Uh, hi, Jessica.

08:19Uh, Jessica, this is Holly. Holly, this is Jessica.

08:22Holly, hi. Pleasure.

08:26So?

08:27So I gathered from what you said at the office

08:29you weren't showing up tonight.

08:31Well, I changed my mind.

08:33Well, listen, we already had dinner,

08:35so why don't you join us for drinks?

08:37I'm afraid I can't do that, Jessica.

08:39Uh, excuse me.

08:44Unless you want something stronger?

08:48Thanks, but no thanks.

08:50I have some business to take care of right now.

08:53Okay, well, if you change your mind, I know where I am.

08:56Thank you. Okay.

09:00Will you excuse me just a moment, please?

09:02Sure.

09:04Well, well, well, it doesn't take you long, does it,

09:07to pick up some little tart like Jessica?

09:09Now, as usual,

09:11you have misinterpreted another situation.

09:14I came here to get something to eat.

09:16Yeah, right. I'm sure you did.

09:18What are you doing? What are you doing?

09:20I'm trying to save you from yourself.

09:22That's what I'm trying to do.

09:24Would you let go of me? Just let go.

09:26No, I'm not gonna let go of you.

09:28Now, it's time that you get a little lesson of reality, woman.

09:31Now, sit down.

09:33God, Sean.

09:37I see you've been doing a little drinking.

09:39I'm a big girl, Sean. I can do whatever I want to.

09:42I don't like making a fool of yourself in public.

09:45I came down here to have a drink with Holly.

09:47I see that you're a little P.O.,

09:49because I just kind of spoiled your rendezvous with Jessica, didn't I?

09:51No, I told you, I came here to have something to eat.

09:54I ran into her. Besides, Jessica and I work together.

09:57Since when did you start working with a woman who put Felicia away?

10:00Give me a break.

10:02You know, as usual, you blow everything out of proportion,

10:04the same way you did with Cheryl.

10:06I don't ever want to talk about that again, okay? Just leave it alone.

10:08Why don't you start facing facts?

10:10You're angry at Cheryl for giving custody of Lucas to Bobby,

10:13and now you're jealous of Bobby because of it.

10:17You think you know me so well, don't you?

10:19Oh, yeah, I know you very well.

10:21You keep running away from your problems the way you run away from me.

10:25Now, what the hell was the use?

10:28I mean, how can we ever get back to the way we were

10:30with this custody business always between us?

10:34Listen, baby, let me listen very closely,

10:37because this is the last time.

10:40Bobby and Lucas are just part of our life,

10:43not our whole life.

10:46You better get control of your feelings

10:49and start looking at the right priorities,

10:52or you start looking at the next move.

10:56Is that a threat?

10:58No.

11:00It's the truth.

11:17Looks like Tiffany really enjoyed herself dancing with you.

11:20That was nice.

11:22She's been hurting a lot lately.

11:25Has she?

11:28Thanks for taking care of those drinks.

11:30I don't think...

11:32I didn't know how to make any of them.

11:34I couldn't have handled it without you.

11:41I'm sorry.

11:44Remember, I did it for Mac.

11:47Yeah, I remember.

11:51So, look, for Mac,

11:54will you come back to work until he and Felicia are clear?

11:58I know what you're trying to do is look at work.

12:01Sailor,

12:03Victoria is behind me now.

12:06Well, then, for your sake, I'm glad.

12:10Take the job.

12:12No.

12:17Well, if you want to take the job,

12:19may I walk you home?

12:21I don't know.

12:23No, I think it's not a good idea.

12:25I think it's too soon.

12:27I don't want to lose you.

12:33Where's the bartender?

12:35I need a drink.

12:37I need a drink.

12:39Honey, would you be a sweetheart and go get me a drink, please?

12:42I think we should go home.

12:44I just need one more drink, and then we'll go home.

12:46Okay, then we'll stop for some coffee on the way home.

12:48I don't want any coffee, and I don't want to go home yet, okay?

12:50Just one more drink, and then I'll go.

12:52You told me what a very busy day you had tomorrow at work,

12:55and you need some rest.

12:57I need a drink.

12:59Bye.

13:08Well, my friends all went home to their loved ones.

13:11I'm not in such a hurry.

13:13Care to join me for a nightcap?

13:20Sure, why not?

13:22Great.
