Amanda? What are you doing?

The driver says the hotel's still an hour away. And as beaches go, this one's

not very romantic.

You look beautiful.

Get real, I'm a mess.

No makeup, sunburned.

I'm beginning to feel a little left out.

I'm sorry. I was worried that this place might bring back memories.

But it didn't. Good.

Can we get back in the taxi and get to the hotel while the sun is still

Sure. Nothing left for me here.

Coming.

Oh, I was hoping you were Billy.

A man who left town to come down to the Dominican Republic to get a divorce.

Billy found out that Sam's been having an affair.

And she thinks that I'm the father of Taylor's baby.

And now he's down on the whole human race, which unfortunately includes me.

But thanks to your brother, I know that I am not the father, but that has not

kept Taylor from telling everybody else that I am.

And now he's giving me the silent treatment.

Have you heard a word that I just said?

What?

Oh.

Oh, sorry.

Look, Taylor... Taylor is this close to confessing everything she knows about

Christine's death. I can feel it. And Amanda is about to drop McBride from the

end of her name if you don't get your butt down to the Dominican Republic.

is a 48 -hour waiting period.

And since the truth is the only thing that's going to stop Amanda from getting

divorce, you and I are going to spend this time baiting Taylor.

Look, I know that you have... haven't been listening to me. But I'm having my

own problems right now, Kyle.

It'll be easy. All you gotta do is let it slip that I told you that I want to

marry her, but I'm concerned that she is hiding something.

As long as I have these concerns about Christine's death, she's not walking

the aisle anytime soon.

Maybe you should forget about your plan and save your marriage.

I can't do that. Not until I prove to Amanda that Christine's suicide wasn't

fault. You are playing a dangerous game, Kyle.

Please.

Please. Okay, I will help.

Thank you.

It's just a contused ligament.

I fell down a mountain.

Fortunately, Michael was there to save me.

Michael? Of course, he's the one who caused the accident in the first place.

It's not atypical when you're dealing with Mancini.

It's my fault.

Peter, he tricked me into telling him where you were.

Just forget it, though. It all worked out for the best.

Can I come in?

Yeah, it's your place, too.

Oh, it sure feels good to be home.

Oh, thanks.

I felt bad about the way I left. I was out of line about the whole coop thing.

I've been under a lot of pressure, you know. I know.

But I had a bit of a cathartic while I was away. Not that I couldn't use

month away in Bishop, but I'm feeling better.

Well, I'm glad, and I accept your apology.

Peter, I missed you.

I missed you so much.

All right, I gotta go.

Thursday at 9 a .m. All right, don't you dare stand me up.

What was that all about? Look.

Do you think I'm talking to Jeff?

Were you?

No, I swear. I haven't talked to him since the hospital.

And I won't talk to him again.

Right. I was talking to Amanda the painter. She's having her apartment

while she's out of town.

And she asked me to take care of it.

Why are we talking about this when we should be talking about everything else?

I have so much that I need to say.

I couldn't give a damn about what you need right now, okay? Because I don't

trust you.

I don't even like you very much right now, so save it for someone who cares.

82, I'm back. Yeah,

how appropriate.

Tell me something. Does Peter know anything about this? Oh, it was his

You see, I saved his life while we were vacationing up in the mountains.

You and Peter went on a vacation together?

Well, kind of.

Of course, you can imagine how grateful he was, and partnerless, since your

boyfriend here deserted him.

Oh, and I'm sorry to hear you crapped out in Philly, Coop.

No.

You're right. You know what?

I'm not going to let him get to me.

I'm just going to get him.

Uh, Michael, can I talk to you for a moment in my office? Oh, actually,

um, that's my office now.

What did you say?

You heard me.

And, uh, I'd appreciate you getting all your junk out of there. She's not moving

anything until I talk to Peter first.

Be my guest. Talk to your blue.

So, um, what am I supposed to do for an office?

Well, um, since your position as office manager is being terminated due to

budgetary reasons, you won't need one.

Um, but I guess you could still stick around, go back to being a receptionist.

Never. Never in a very long time I could put in a good word with my best friend

Peter. You know what, Michael? You can clean out your own damn office. I quit.

Megan.

I don't know what kind of game you're playing here, Mancini, but we're not

partners and we're never going to beat partners.

I don't care what that door says.

That's a beautiful ring.

May I?

Oh, of course.

Five carats? Yes, it's severance pay for my third husband.

Marry rich, marry often. That's my motto.

I guess you weren't bored while I was gone.

Oh, I love it.

You're jealous.

I have a good foundation for a marriage. Who said I was jealous?

Mr. Blake, there's a call for you. You can take it on the house phone.

Oh, good, thanks.

I've been expecting this call. It's business. Can you do without me for a

minutes? Longer than that. I'll be at the pool.

Eddie, hey, tell me the good news.

No, wait a second, wait a second, no.

First you tell me there's no downside, now you tell me I gotta come up with

another 50 grand or lose everything?

No, will I tell you there's a hitch?

No, I need time and now there is no time.

No, no way.

No, what the hell with you two?

Borrowed this from Mario last night. Thought I should get it back to him.

Thanks. Yeah, hey, you know, I couldn't help but notice how happy Kyle has been

these days.

Thanks again.

Yeah. I guess congratulations are in order.

Well, he told me about the blessed event.

Heck, I thought you were just doing a lot of comfort eating.

He told you about our baby?

Yeah. What's the big deal?

Like you could hide it.

Oh, yeah.

Then again, if I were...

carrying a man's baby and he wasn't about to make an honest woman out of me,

would probably... Hal didn't say that.

Well, not in so many words.

Actually, he said he was ready to propose, but... But what? Well, he's got

uh, I don't know, a lingering suspicion that you're still holding something back

about Christine, how she died.

I'm not.

That would be a first.

But it is none of my business.

Well, what else did Kyle say?

Nothing. He just thinks that you're hiding something, and that's a problem

him.

Look, Taylor, if I were you, I would spill my guts, and if there's nothing to

spill, I'd make something up.

But that's just me.

You know me. All I want out of life is to be married to a great guy.

And not Kyle, honest.

Well, don't worry. I never considered you a threat.

Okay,

I better get back to work.

I really enjoyed our little girl talk.

I'm gonna take a shower.

Yeah, I'm gonna open up another bottle of champagne, try to get even drunker.

You know, I don't need you dragging me down. So you better snap out of your

mood, or I'll find some other playboy to marry.

Don't let me stop you, honey.

Hey, it's me.

Yeah, remember that little hitch?

I found a way around it.

Yeah.

You'll have the money by the end of the week.

We'll be in touch.

I'm sorry, baby.

Pre -wedding jitters.

Let me show you how I really feel.

I'm late.

Traffic would have been better.

I didn't hit any on my way home.

Oh, this is ludicrous.

I'm going to get stuck in traffic without you being suspicious of me right

I got the mail.

Go ahead, open it. I'm going to actually see what your lover has to say for

himself. Who says this is from Jeff? It looks like junk mail to me.

You want to open it? I'll open it.

Dear Tim.

Oh, he doesn't have a pet name for you. I'll bet you have one for him.

You won't take my calls.

You won't see me.

I had no choice. I don't want to make more waves, but I care about you too

You cheat on me when someone only cares about you?

In my book, that makes you a tramp.

Oh, this is sick.

Now, you just stay right here.

I'm going to read it right now.

What I feel for you, I've never felt before.

It's like you're a part of me, the best part.

I love you so much.

You said you loved me, too.

And that you never felt this way with Billy.

You worship and love me. How could you do this to me?

I loved you.

How could you do this?

Huh? How could you?

insane to come clean. But Jennifer said that I... She's my sister and I love

her, but she doesn't know what she's talking about.

Truth doesn't bring happiness.

Well, how did you know? Because I'm a guy. And even though Kyle's making all

right noises about taking responsibility for this baby, trust me, he's only

fishing for an out. Michael, no offense, but you're not exactly a credit to your

gender. You know what? You're right. I'm wrong. I'm gone.

Oh, and, uh, when you're crying in your linguine, remember what I said.

Your truth shall set him free.

Hey. Hey.

Your assistant said you're between patients, so I, um, I just wanted to

you for the use of the cabin and let you know that that's exactly what I needed

a few days away.

I'm glad.

Yeah. No, no, I tell you, I feel great. I mean, I, you know, I got a new

girlfriend. Great girl. Got a great job.

Got a great new condo. No, no, things are great.

Peter, when a patient overuses the word great to describe their life, alarms go

off. Well, I'm not a patient.

And I don't think you're here just to say thanks.

Okay, maybe.

Maybe things aren't that great.

But they're not so bad. When a patient says... All right, all right.

Why does everybody get what they want?

Huh? Answer me that.

Lexi gets an apology from me. Michael gets his job back. The same with Coop.

what do I get? The big fat zippo. That's for me.

And I just... I just happened to hear that my ex -wife is down in the

frolicking around with her new boy toy. Now, now, now, what is wrong with this

picture?

Well, it's got a free hour.

Why don't you tell me?

Start the clock.

Can we see this ring here? Sure.

Come on, humor me and slip it on. I am not ready for a ring yet.

We had an understanding.

I mean, come on, let's get real here. Yeah, let's.

Amanda, listen, if you've changed your mind, just tell me. You know, because

getting hooked. I'm falling under your spell.

Every night that I spend with you makes me want you more. I want to know that

I'm not the only one having these feelings, that it's somewhat reciprocal.

Insecurity isn't a quality I value in a man.

I'll get the car.

Can I get you anything?

Yeah, you give me another drink.

Okay. I'll admit it.

Occasionally I need a little reassurance.

I didn't mean to be rude.

No, rude's okay.

Just don't pull the plug on our feelings.

What I said the other night about holding on to each other and never

really, I... I love you.

It's a hollow word.

Your wife cheats on you and I get the fallout.

Billy, I'm not Sam.

Why, because you tell the truth? We don't have any secrets?

Okay, you want me to lay it all out on the table?

I will.

But I want you to know that the only reason I kept quiet was to scare you.

No, I knew it for months.

Sam was doing the dirty deed with Jeff.

Months? You want details? Ask your wife. No, I'm asking you.

I'm out of the gala committee awards.

I was your date because Sam was in San Diego hitting home runs with the guy.

She said she had a business date.

Yeah, well, she said a lot of things that weren't true, Billy.

Where are you going?

Sam had a dinner meeting tonight. I'm going to make sure it went okay.

I don't want my fortune told.

If I had a line laid on me about the future, I'd call an 800 number back

mistake. Or I'd talk to you.

Come on. It'll be fun. You'll see.

Buenas noches, senora.

My friend would like her fortune told.

Siéntese, por favor.

Big Ted.

I see you have been hurt by love more than once.

Haven't we all?

Yes, but love has never worked for you.

The cards tell me it will never work.

Love is not enough for a woman like you.

What you need is a lifelong friend and companion.

He accepts you when only what is best for you.

When you feel yourself resisting the attentions of another, you will know

man isn't here.

And a word of caution.

Don't back out of previous agreements.

Well, thank you.

It's been amusing.

Pay the woman, Rory.

By the way, how much did he offer you to shill for him?

Noble ingles.

Me neither.

Oh, I am not mad. In fact, I kind of liked it. You went the extra mile to get

what you want.

See, now that's what I love about Amanda.

You're always one step ahead.

What am I doing here?

Hey! Oh,

that's a bingo.

How the hell did you know I'd be here?

I wrangled it out of some temperature agency that you haven't done around the

block. It doesn't matter.

What matters is that I love you.

I'm not going to stop loving you.

Ever.

Taylor. Hey, I was just closing up.

I'm glad.

Yeah, I mean, you're still here.

Oh, what a night.

Yeah.

You know, it could be the best night of our lives if you make love to me.

What's wrong?

Look, if it's not you, I'm sorry. I don't mean to send mixed signals, but

not ready to take the next step.

When we were in Boston, we were the perfect married couple.

We had the perfect marriage.

And I loved you so much because we shared everything.

And that's what I want again. I want you to be honest with me.

Taylor, come on.

Tell me what you're thinking.

What are you feeling?

Well, you know what I'm thinking and what I'm feeling.

You're hiding something from me, and I don't know what it is.

Why do you feel like you can't trust me?

Because your secrets are pushing me away.

But I do trust you.

Tell me, or it's too late.

But there's nothing to tell, and that's the honest truth.

Damn it, Taylor, I got a right to know.

You know what? Now I'm sorry, because my whole life I've lied, and I've gotten

really good at it.

But now, when I'm telling you the truth, you don't believe me.

You know what? I don't blame you, because I don't deserve you, Kyle.

But my baby, our baby does.

And that's all the truth that matters.

I'm going to go.

Good night, Kyle.

All I'm saying is you don't have to jump at the first opportunity that comes

along. Take some time. Figure out what you really want to do.

And if you want to stay at home and raise our family, I'm fine with that,

Jennifer got me a job at the jazz club. What do you think?

I, um... I think we should have discussed it first.

Look, I'm not sure I want you, you know, hustling tips and fighting off drunks.

Oh, come on. It's just upstairs. We're not talking about some biker bar or

something.

Besides, I'm comfortable there.

They don't look happy.

But you know what? I won't be happy either if I'm financially dependent on

Why? I just won't, even though I'm crazy in love with you. Please go with me on

this, all right?

All right.

You're going to twist my arm.

But that's only because I'm crazy in love with you, too.

Crazy?

How's Operation Taylor going?

Came up empty.

Oh, no. What are you going to do now?

I am going to dump her.

I know Taylor should do anything to hang on to this relationship, even if it

means telling the truth.

Wish I could be a fly on the wall.

Hi. Don't say anything.

I can't do this anymore.

God knows I've tried, but I can't get past the lies and the deception.

So even though my feelings are strong for you, baby, I'm moving on.

Kyle, I don't understand.

Where is this all coming from?

You know, do you ever wonder if it's worth it?

I mean, all the misery that you caused by lying?

If you knew what I've gone through and how much I love you... What have you

through?

Taylor, what are you hiding from me? What are you so afraid to tell me?

I'm ashamed.

You have to promise that you won't hate me if I tell you.

So there is something.

Kind of.

Okay, I couldn't stand to see with Amanda. I couldn't.

And when she started nosing around about Christine, well, I started nosing

around, too. And I tricked you into telling me where Nick was, and I went to

him.

And, God, I... Jumped into the sack with him.

But it wasn't sexual. I was just pumping him for information. And if I had known

that Christine had died in the war, then that's all... Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait, wait a minute.

Christine died a couple of months ago.

No.

She died seven years ago.

The woman that you thought was Christine was actually Nick's girlfriend who was

an ex -showgirl who'd actually been in a bad car accident and she had authentic

scars.

I have to admit, she was almost a dead ringer for the real thing.

Then I had to promise Nick half my interest in the jazz club for him to

the bogus Christine to L .A.

I don't believe this.

Are you lying to me?

Kyle, I couldn't come up with a lie this complicated.

It was a great plan.

It was, but then the fake Christine fell in love with you, and...

Well, Nick got pissed, and then they got into this fight, and she fell and hit

her head and died.

That's when he came up with the idea of taking her to the train tracks, and,

well, you know the rest.

Keep going.

Keep going.

Well, then I sent a letter over to your honeymoon suite to Amanda pretending

that I was Christine.

Threatening to commit suicide.

And then you two showed up at the train tracks just in time to see the body

pancaked by the train.

Then Nick tried to kill me, which really isn't that important.

Oh, God.

I feel so much better.

How do you feel?

Kyle?

Sweetie?

Sweetie.

You're evil, and you make me sick.

No, my confession meant to bring us closer together.

Why? Because you're having my baby? Even that's a lie.

No. I've known the whole time, Taylor, that's not my baby.

It's the best news I ever got.

Kyle, please, I'll do anything to make it up to you, please.

Not in this lifetime.

Kyle, no.

Kyle, please don't go. I'm nothing without you.

You're nothing, period.

And someday even that kid of yours is going to know it.

Yeah, hold on.

Hi. I would have called first, but I was afraid you would hide behind your

answering machine.

I thought you were my neighbor. She promised to take in my mail while I'm

Wait, where are you going? I've got a pal in Arizona who owns a chain of

stores. He offered me a job.

And you took it?

What about Sam?

Lost cause.

Besides, I've had all the BS.

Yeah, well, me too, but you don't see me folding my tent and moving back to New

Jersey. Look, Sam's staying with Billy, okay?

I mean, she didn't come right out and say it, but the way she kissed me last

night, definitely over. Said hell with it.

Uh, Jeff, I haven't been totally honest with you.

That's okay.

We know you.

Billy and I have been sleeping together.

Did you hear what I said? Billy's been unfaithful. That's all the ammunition

need. Sam is yours.

Not interested.

All you have to do is tell her. She will never forgive Billy.

You tell her. I can't tell her. If I tell her, I lose Billy. But if you do

then we'll both be... Goodbye, Jennifer.

Look, I know you love Sam, so fight for her, damn it. That's what love is all

about. Getting in the ring with Mike Tyson and coming out with all your limbs

intact.

Uh, miss, I'd like another... Oh, you must be new here.

I'd like another drink now.

I'll be right with you. No, no, I want it now. And if I don't get it, well,

then... Well, you're a lousy waitress and you forget your tip. Hey, everybody,

don't tip this lady, okay?

Because lousy wives make lousy waitresses.

Michael, sit down and lower your voice. No, no, make that a double, hmm? Oh,

wait, you know what? I think you've had enough.

I'm going to call you a cab.

Hey, hey, hey. We're just supposed to take orders, not give them, okay?

You know what? I don't know why I bothered to care.

Oh, maybe because I'm back on top again, huh? Just like Dr. Larner was.

On top of you.

That was you?

You told that pompous degenerate that I was an ex -hooker? For the record, I was

gunning for Coop. Oh, and that's supposed to make a difference. You know,

Larner's a sex addict. He would jump anything in a skirt. He almost raped me,

Michael. And at the moment, I don't see any difference between that and what you

did to Coop and me.

I hate you. Oh, come on. Hate me, lovey. Make up your mind, honey. You have

humiliated me for the last time. I'm getting off your roller coaster. And if

wasn't going to give me so much pleasure to hold this over you, I would tell

Coop right now.

Now, later, big deal. You better believe it is. You know how Cook feels about

you, what he's capable of. He finds out you blew his dream, he'll kill you. But

before he kills you, he'll convince Peter to boot you out of the practice

the hospital, and you'll end up looking for a clinic again on the wrong side of

town. Are we clear?

Oh, Peter.

You're so unbelievable.

It makes me feel the way you do.

I love you so much.

Hello? Amanda, it's me. Don't hang up.

What do I have to do to make you leave me alone?

Look, I'm on my way down there. I just want you to sit tight until you and I

straighten this thing out face to face.

Don't waste your money on a plane ticket.

I love you.

We're going to be together, you see.

And don't call me again.

Ever.

Could use more champagne.

Sure.

Who was that on the phone?

No one important.

How about a toast?

To quickie divorces and quickier marriages.

Look, Amanda.

Let's not spoil the evening with more talk, okay? No, no, it's not okay. I

to say this. Well, I'll marry you.

What more do you want?

Look, Amanda, I don't believe in happy endings any more than you do.

Good.

Amanda. Look,

I've been dating since I was 13.

I never spent more than a couple of days without a girlfriend or a warm body.

Hell, and the envy of all my buddies.

But it really took a lot out of me.

You know, I'm just tired of the chase.

Down on romance.

Look, I know you don't love me.

I just complicate things anyway.

You and I can give each other what we need.

And what do you think I need?

Keep the big bad wolf away from your door.

Kyle's not the type to give up easy.

Hell, he's even calling you down here.

What you need is a friend you can trust.

Great sex.

And what do you need?

Just the great sex.

Take off your clothes.

Yes, I'm attracted to Lexi, and yes, she's a very beautiful, sexy, and

woman, but she's not the one.

Maybe I can't love a woman who loves me, or maybe I need to be tormented to be

happy. I don't understand.

I mean, why can't I just love her the same way that she loves me?

This is the point where you're supposed to say something incredibly insightful.

Sorry.

You think I'm warped, don't you?

Peter, is there another woman? Are you seeing someone on the side?

No.

No, my cheating days are over.

I see.

All right, well, then tell me this.

When you fantasize about sex, is Lexi part of the fantasy?

Of course, you have a partner.

You mean other than myself?

If you must know...

Sometimes I fantasize about my ex -wife.

Amanda?

I think about her all the time.

She's the only woman that I ever put on a pedestal.

But I blew it with her. It's over.

But... But I still love her.

My God, that's it.

That's my problem.

I'm still in love with Amanda.

No, no, no, I'm not really looking for another hotel. I'm looking for a private

beach. You know, something off the beaten track.

I'm honeymooning with my new bride. Oh, now I understand the need for privacy.

We have a number of small islands off the coast. The facilities are crude, but

the beaches and settings are very romantic.

How does one get to these islands?

I could arrange for a boat.

along with the supply of food from the hotel, scuba diving gear, whatever you

like. That sounds great.

Listen, I don't want anybody to know about this.

No problem.

It's official.

I'm a free woman.

Congratulations. Come on, I feel like celebrating in the bar.

You'll take care of what we talked about, right? Yes, sir.

What's that all about?

It's a surprise.

Can't you see?

That is Burns Mancini Cooper. That's him. Oh, and I can do the right to spend

hard -earned cash? Your cash? Correction, it's our cash, okay?

Peter's mine. Since you weaseled your way back into this practice.

I'm only going to see this once, Coop. Don't use the weasel word.

Hey,

hey, hey! What's going on here? Michael, Coop, stop it!

You're right. You know what? I should have run him over in the parking lot.

this is the guy that's supposed to replace me?

Michael, shut up.

Coop, explain.

My partner, and I use the term reluctantly, ordered a $5 ,000 vector

machine for the office, which we do not need. I don't agree with that opinion.

That's because you're getting kickbacks from the supplier. You are trying to

sabotage my business here.

I'll tell you what. I'm here in perpetuity.

Michael! What?

Don't you think Coop has a point?

Maybe it should take a few weeks, a few months to settle into this new

arrangement before you start ordering new things for the office.

All right, all right.

I'm sorry.

Friends. Oh, I'll think about it.

How did you do that?

Michael and I have an understanding. It's wordless, but effective.

You, uh... Are you ready for lunch?

I'm starved. All right.

Billy's gonna come through that gate any second. You gotta go. I don't want a

scene. Until you hear me out.

I can't. It's about Billy.

Well, well, well. My wife and her lover are at it again.

I didn't invite him. He just showed up and now he's leaving.

Look, I'll go. Just so you know, your self -righteous husband and good friend

Jennifer Mancini are having their own affair behind your back.

Come on. No.

I'm not lying to you, Sam. I swear.

Is it true?

You're such a hypocrite.

The bedroom is down the hall.

Pack my things. I'll be back in a minute.

Don't even think about going into my bed. Oh, are you going to stop me? Yeah,

yeah.

Sam.

You bitch.

You pushed me into an affair so you could steal my husband.

Oh, thank God it's all out in the open. I am so relieved.

I'll give you relieved blood.

Sam. You're hurting her. If I'm hurting her, I'd like to kill her.

No kidding.

You want somebody to blame?

Blame me.

Blame yourself. Blame us. We're the ones that blew the marriage, right? She's

the innocent one.

You have the wool pulled so over your eyes, along with other parts of your

anatomy. I resent that totally.

Me too. Come on, let's get out of here.

Gladly.

I'm sorry about all this.

Listen, I'll finish getting the facts.

Let's get you moved into my place, okay?

I'm not moving anywhere.

I just... I need to be alone.

Michael, I am invincible.

Michael, have you been drinking?

What? Oh, no, no. I was just... Never mind. What's wrong now, Dallin?

I've loved Kyle forever.

Oh, I'm sorry.

No, you're not.

No, really. I mean, I want the best for you and your baby.

For very unselfish reasons.

So next time you ask for my advice, take it.

There won't be a next time.

I've called to say goodbye, Michael.

Goodbye? Where are you going?

Far, far away.

Thanks for being my only friend, Michael.

Taylor? Taylor? Are you there?

Taylor?

Do you, Amanda, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love,

honor, and cherish him so long as you both shall live?

I do.

Do you, Rory, take this woman...

to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love, honor, and cherish her so long as

both shall live.

I do.

Then, by the power vested in me by God and the Republic, I hereby pronounce you

husband and wife.

You may kiss the bride.
