Keep crying baby, baby, please.

Well, good morning, Linda.

Heavy night last night, huh?

Hi.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi.

Black Sea Cruise Line.

Gee, I don't have any information on that.

But I'll see if I can locate some, all right?

I'll get back to you.

Bye-bye.

Linda, do you have any brochures on the Black Sea Cruise Line?

Yeah, I do.

Great.

Thanks.

Want to have lunch?

I have so much stuff here to catch up on.

Thank you.

You think it's easy for me?

He's been my best friend for 10 years.

I don't want to hurt him.

But I have to do what's right for me.

What did he say when you told him?

He ran out on the beach.

He wouldn't deal with me.

All right, listen, Sherry.

I love you, OK?

And I promise you everything's going to work out OK.

All right, Roger.

I love you.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

How could you do it, Sherry?

I mean, let alone with my best friend.

What was I supposed to do?

You were never around, Michael.

Please.

I thought you would change, Sherry.

I honestly thought that you would change.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I wonder what people would say if they knew about us.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hello?

Hey, I knew you were there.

Dee Dee?

I just got in.

Guess what?

I'm here at the Neon Bar

with the most gorgeous flight attendants.

Come on over.

Dee Dee, I can't.

Why not?

I...

Because I just got undressed.

So get dressed.

I've got this terrific-looking guy for you.

He's a pilot.

He looks just like Tom Selleck.

I don't know, Dee Dee.

Come on, it'll be fun.

There's no one there with you, is there?

No.

Good.

I'll see you soon, then.

Don't be long.

Dee Dee?

Well, Linda's different.

Yeah, great personality, huh?

No, that's not what I mean.

What do you mean?

Well, she's smart,

but she's real private.

Whoa, those are always the best kind.

You just get them going, eh, Alex?

Hey, I can get it going in ten minutes.

All I got to do is use my three-stage approach.

Ooh, what's that?

Three little lines that never fail,

no matter who the lady is.

First step is...

why are you so sad?

Mm, now that's a strange come-on, huh?

That might work on Linda.

Wait a second.

No, no, no, think about it for a minute.

You know, women walk around

feeling that life has dealt them a low blow.

Here I come, I recognize that inner struggle.

Hey, Milt, right?

Best time to get them is when they're laughing.

If they stop laughing instantly and they say,

hey, this guy has insight into me,

he realizes that I'm complex.

Ah!

I understand.

All right, wait a second.

You want to hear stage two?

Stage two is...

Baby, you're a thoroughbred.

Instantly they recognize

that you are aware of quality merchandise.

And knows that you're one, too?

Of course.

Linda, a thoroughbred.

Wow!

Hey!

What's stage three?

Stage three?

Stage three.

Baby, you're ready.

What if she's not ready?

Doesn't make any difference, just keep saying,

you're ready, you're ready, until she buys it,

then you move in for the kill, right?

You want another drink?

Right, right, yeah.

Hey, he's good, huh?

You better remember to use the irons.

Hold up now, don't go through his thing.

You hear me?

Anyway...

Did you find Longman yet?

He was wearing his, uh...

Pick at $5.

He was?

Yes.

Sorry about the request,

but we're looking at $7.

$7?

Yeah, $7, pick it up,

first things first.

I said, first things first.

What's next?

Hey, do you buy?

Pick it up, whatever.

Pick it up first,

can I quickly find it?

Be careful,

I'm Alex, Dee Dee's friend.

Oh, hi.

Hi.

They're a trip, aren't they?

They look so happy.

Well, most of this happiness is gonna be a hangover tomorrow.

May I take your coat?

No.

That's okay.

I've been in a million towns like this.

They all have bars just like this,

the same kind of a crowd,

all searching.

For love?

True romantic.

There's not many of us left.

Shall we dance?

I'm not very good.

Oh, that's okay, honey.

You just let the music move you.

So, don't worry about it.

Just get out there, have a good time,

and I'll make you look good.

It's a great group, huh?

Yeah.

I can't do this kind of dancing.

I understand.

I can't do this either.

I'm sorry.

Let's get a drink, okay?

What would you like?

I'll have whatever you're having.

Okay.

Two Manhattans, please.

Is that a nice drink?

Très chic.

I'm sorry about the dance.

It's a little late.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about the dancing.

I never was any good.

It's okay. I understand.

Thank you.

Come on. Take a good shot.

It's good.

It's a great drink.

It's a great drink.

You know, I sense that you're sad.

Do you want to talk about it?

I'm not sad.

It's okay.

You can talk to me.

Because, well, we have a connection.

The first time you came in,

we're so alike.

There isn't anything that we couldn't do together.

Hi.

Hi.

What did I say, Alex, huh?

Yeah, she's a real thoroughbred.

I'm sorry. I have to go.

Linda, please.

Linda, wait a second, will you?

We're just getting to know each other.

Where are you going?

Why don't you go back in there?

I'm sure there are a lot of women

who'd like to go home with you tonight.

I got a dead battery.

Can I give you a lift home?

Just a lift.

Hey, look, I'm a friend of Dee Dee's.

Really, honey, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to get you so upset.

Come on, you can't stay here all night.

Come on.

Why don't you stop the car?

Hey, wait a second, honey.

Take it easy.

Let me out of here.

Take it easy.

Hey, hey, honey, don't hang around bars

if you don't want to play.

Can you get a hold of FC?

Wow, thatís a pretty outfit.

It makes you look like you need to get into shape,

not try to lose ten pounds.

I see you lift, don't you?

That's OK.

I mean, that guy isn't all that rotten.

He just can't take no for an answer.

Want to have lunch?

I have so many errands to do this afternoon.

Tomorrow, for sure.

OK.

I'll hang up.

Go again.

Detail, detail.

I'm going to go into detail.

Ready?

We're going to go into detail.

OK.

We've got to do something with this scene.

That's no problem.

We'll just tighten it.

We'll cut it.

Let's cut these first two speeches.

Uh-huh.

Glenn will start.

Shari, what are you doing here?

Cynthia Roger had an accident.

And Glenn, is he all right?

We'll tighten it, and we'll cut.

Shari, what are you doing here?

Roger's had an accident.

How bad is he?

Cut.

Good.

Very good.

It was really very good.

Come on over here, and let's run the lines for the next scene.

I'd like a cashier's check for the balance.

If you leave in $25, you can keep the account.

No, I want it closed.

This time, he took me to a wonderful restaurant, Italian.

It was heaven.

Would you believe it?

He turns around, and all of a sudden,

he starts talking to the waiters in Italian.

Well, everybody in the place was looking at him.

I was kind of embarrassed at first,

but then I felt...

Didn't I wash them enough?

You never do.

You're doing a great job.

Now, let's run the lines for the balance.

Didn't I wash them enough?

You never do.

Well, I've been hearing about your mystery man for a while now.

Am I ever going to meet him?

He's only going to be here a few days this time.

I'll try and bring him by before we leave for California.

You're going to California?

Yes.

When?

You can't go away.

Why?

Well, because you have responsibilities here.

You can't go away.

It's only for a few days, Mother. It's, uh...

It's nothing.

You're going to travel alone with a man, and it's nothing.

Well, now, I have heard it all.

When you moved out of the house and got your own place, I didn't say a word.

But now this.

Well, no daughter of mine is going to travel with a man that's not her husband.

You can't stop me.

Oh, I can, and I will.

Please, Mother!

I don't know where I went wrong with you.

You were always peculiar.

I have to go.

You haven't eaten your dinner.

Will I see you next week?

I'll be out of town.

Linda, don't do this.

Don't do what?

Don't fall in love?

Michael loves me.

He loves you?

Yes.

He thinks I'm pretty.

Has he ever seen you upset?

What does that matter?

Oh, honey, it doesn't matter to me.

I've always loved you.

Well, guess what?

He has seen me upset.

And it doesn't matter to him either.

Baby, baby, all we have is each other.

Not anymore.

I have my own man now.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Yes.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

Do you have a reservation for Linda Foster?

Let me check.

Do send up some champagne.

It's already there, madame.

Oh, thank you.

What's your name again, please?

Foster.

Foster.

Foster.

I don't see a room for Foster.

No, no, it's a suite.

Suite.

Oh, suite, yes.

And your rental is waiting for you in the garage.

If you'll kindly fill out this card,

we'll have the bellman take up your luggage.

Thank you.

Hi, I'm here.

No, here.

Oh, I just got here.

Oh, yeah, the room is beautiful.

Did you miss me?

I sure missed you.

I know you did.

No, really.

Hi, I'm here.

Hi.

No, I'm here.

I missed you.

Did you miss me?

I know you did.

Did you miss me?

I sure missed you.

I sure missed you.

I did.

I'm here.

I'm here.

So this is where you live, Michael.

Savage Hills.

May I speak to Michael...

Glenn Stevens, please?

It's Linda Foster.

May I ask what it's in reference to?

It's personal.

He's expecting my call.

Well, he's shooting right now.

Would you like to leave a message?

Uh, I'll call back.

Thank you.

And...

Action!

Well, I came as soon as I heard, Roger.

I'm sorry this has happened.

Well, you know how you drive that car.

Cut!

Glenn!

Glenn.

Your mark...

is here.

Okay, Marty, I'm sorry.

Can we go again?

Fine.

And this time, take a longer beat before you speak to her, okay?

Okay, good.

How you doing, Gary?

The name is Gareth.

And I'm burning up in here.

I don't know how much longer I can take this.

Okay, this is the last time.

Okay, ready!

Yeah.

And...

Action!

I came as soon as I heard, Roger.

I'm sorry this happened.

But you know the way you drive...

Oh, God!

Okay, Glenn, cut!

Shh!

What's going on?

Marty, I'm sorry.

But these lines make my character sound like a jerk.

What's the problem, Marty?

Talk to your star.

What's the problem, Glenn?

Margaret, for two years,

I have been trying to give Michael

some human compassion.

I mean, this is my friend.

Has been my friend for ten years.

And I've been trying to give him

some human compassion.

I've been trying to give him

some human compassion.

I want to do this.

I think I should sit on the bed,

talk to him like a real friend,

like a real person in a real world.

Do you understand the real world?

I mean, I wouldn't talk to him

about how he drives his car.

All right.

I'm gonna take care of it.

Thank you.

Um, you want to kill these lights

and everybody just take five.

Somebody get Gareth out of these bandages.

Aren't they?

Well, how about 9.30?

No, we have 1 o'clock open.

Okay, do you want to try Friday?

Um, we have 11.30 open.

Would that be all right?

Okay.

Okay, great.

Thank you.

Miss Foster, you can go in now.

Thank you.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Wow.

Yes.

Thank you.

My key, please.

I...

Miss Foster.

Of course.

You look outstanding.

Thank you.

Uh, can I send anything up for you?

Some champagne, please.

My pleasure.

Hi.

I'm back.

What do you think?

Huh?

I did it for you.

I like it.

Shh.

Don't talk.

Don't talk.

Don't talk.

Hi.

Hi.

Linda Foster for Savage Hills.

I'm sorry, your name's not on the list.

What? That's impossible.

I'm supposed to be here at 2.30.

I'll check again.

You a day player?

Sorry, let me call the show, see if I can straighten it out.

Um, listen, would you do that while I'm...

I'm so late, really.

Okay, you just make sure you clear your pass for tomorrow.

Right, thanks.

Phone ringing.

Okay, folks, quiet on the set.

Stand by to record.

Camera two, pedestal right.

Just a bit.

Camera one, zoom out so you can catch Cynthia's entrance.

All right, rotate. Quiet, please.

Tape is rolling.

Shh.

Stand by.

This is Savage Hills, episode 1806, scene 84.

Take two.

Beautiful. Okay, let's do it.

Tape is rolling.

And...action.

And...cut.

Thank you, Glenn, that was beautiful.

Thank you.

And let's do it again.

Take one.

And...action.

Take two.

And...action.

Take three.

And...cut.

And...cut.

Thank you, Glenn, that was beautiful.

Relax, kids, for the next set-up.

That was fantastic. It was wonderful.

You see how good you can be when you don't fight it?

I don't fight it, Margaret.

I'm only doing what I thought was best for the show.

Sweetheart, what's best for this show

is that you're here on time,

you hit your marks, and you say your words.

Margaret, be honest with me.

Are you happy, I mean really happy, with what we're churning out?

You bet I am, and at 400 thou a year, you should be, too.

Oh.

I don't know how much longer I can handle it.

Margaret's such a steamroller.

She treats me like I'm 12 years of age.

What are you staring at?

Oh, I don't know.

I'm just seeing how long it's going to take you

before you kiss me hello.

Sorry.

Where's Bobby?

Upstairs, watching television.

Look, why don't you just ask Margaret

to write you out of the next couple of episodes?

Why can't I? She's just brought Cynthia and Michael back together again.

Well, your contract's coming up for renegotiation.

Why don't you just ask her to write you out of it?

Your contract's coming up for renegotiation.

Why don't you just not renew it?

Damn it, Jackie, you make me so mad sometimes.

I mean, what about the mortgage and Bobby's school fees?

I mean, look around.

There isn't a damn thing in this house that wasn't paid for by my show.

You know, I've never seen you like this before.

Why are you so unhappy?

It's the damn character I'm playing.

I'm not allowed to change anything.

I mean, I don't even like Michael.

Michael, I'm so sick of hearing about your character.

That's all I hear about.

You're so sick of him, you even bring him to bed with you.

Oh. Oh, terrific.

So that's your excuse, huh?

I'll do it.

But why don't we just drive to the boat

and spend the weekend together, huh?

Look, maybe you should just spend some time by yourself.

Why?

Just to sort things out.

I do realize that the show is very important to us financially,

but I just don't want to see it destroy our marriage.

Oh.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much, and good afternoon.

And now, for all you beautiful women who have come here this afternoon,

leaving behind your husbands and your children

and their problems to take on ours...

All these years we have shared such a wonderful,

romantic and illicit affair,

please help me welcome warmly the cast of Savage Hill.

Our villainous rival,

Mr. Gareth Grant.

And Michael's renewed romance,

the beautiful Cynthia Shelby.

And now, the man you've all been waiting for,

our resident lover,

Mr. Glenn Stevens.

Oh, yes, he makes my heart go a-thumping.

Oh, yes, he makes my heart go pitter-patter, too.

By the way, Glenn, I forgot to tell you,

we've just sold the show to another country.

Greenland.

And I must say, all those Eskimo ladies,

they are melting over you.

Terrific.

Ten years with the Royal Shakespeare Company,

and here I am, melting Eskimos.

Well, if you ever get tired, just remember,

there's 500 guys out there ready to take your place.

And you're right out in front of me, Gary.

It's Gareth. You're damn right I'm in front.

You're wonderful. You're wonderful.

And now, what you've been waiting for,

our contest.

As you all know, the first prize will be

a guest appearance on our show

playing opposite Glenn Stevens.

Glenn, why don't you come over here

and help me pick out the lucky lady, the winner.

And the winner is Mary Cartwright.

Congratulations. Congratulations.

That's the one.

Come on, let's hear it. Yeah!

Oh, thank you.

Um...

I'm...

I'm so excited.

Oh, shut up.

Thank you.

Oh, hello.

May I see you on the set? Yes.

Are you an actress? No, I'm not.

I'm a journalist. I'm with Newsmaker magazine.

I'm interested in doing an interview with you.

Then perhaps you should call my agent

and ask for an appointment next week.

I'll be in New York next week.

Well, would you mind waiting for a little while?

Gladly.

I was very curious to meet you.

You are a lot like the character you play.

Did I say something wrong?

No, no, no.

I've been playing this guy for so long

that I find it difficult to separate myself from him.

For a lot of women, you are that character.

Yeah, I know.

Thank God they don't have to meet me and be disappointed.

I'm sorry it's got so late.

We could have done the interview here, but I have to get home.

What about tomorrow?

I have to go sailing tomorrow.

Perhaps I could interview you before you leave.

I do set sail very early.

I wouldn't need more than an hour.

Okay. Then you'll find me at the marina, Pier 33.

The boat is called Rica. Rica.

Rica. Right.

See you at 7. Bye-bye.

Good morning.

There you are. I thought you'd have been here a couple of hours ago.

I'm terribly sorry I got tied up.

She's a real beauty.

Ah. Thank you.

I had one once. Really?

A 23-foot cutter rigged sloop.

I used to sail her every weekend.

Not all by yourself, surely? Yes, all alone.

It was my father's, really. He taught me all about it.

May I? Yes, of course.

Come on board. Thank you.

Oh, she's terrific.

I'm so glad we're doing the story on board and not on the set.

Yes, I'm sure it would have been delightful, but I'm about to set sail.

You mean we're not doing it?

If I don't leave the harbor almost immediately,

I'm not going to get to the island and back before dark.

Well, I could come along and interview you while we're under sail.

Miss Foster, I had intended to be alone.

This is very important to me. It's a cover story.

It won't be bad for you either, you know.

Not that you need the publicity.

You do make it very hard for me to say no.

You aren't going to send me back empty-handed, are you?

My publisher will be very disappointed,

and I'll probably lose my job.

Well, I don't want you to lose your job.

I hope you don't think I'm being too pushy,

but I happen to think we'll do a wonderful story together.

Well, where's your tape recorder?

I don't use one. I just take very fast notes.

Welcome aboard.

I'm sorry.

Well, is it much different working in America?

In a way. I mean, look at Savage Hills.

I'm told it reaches millions of people every day.

I did productions with a Royal Shakespeare Company

that maybe a dozen people saw.

I'm a working actor, and nobody ever recognized me.

You don't mind doing a soap opera?

Let's just say it's a love-hate relationship.

You've been married for the last 10 years.

How did your marriage survive the pressure?

We had to change a lot.

Does Jackie still treat you the same way as before you were famous?

She still nags me when I don't take out the garbage.

It's like quitting the show and just sailing off around the world.

It's my dream, too.

But it gets harder to chuck a security.

It must be difficult being a sex symbol.

I wonder if you know the power you have over so many women.

They dream about Michael. They fantasize about Michael.

They're in love with him.

I think that's sad.

Sometimes I just want to stand up and let everyone know I'm just an ordinary guy.

Two arms, two legs, stress, strain, mortgage, marital problems.

No. Please don't print that.

Right. Let's not demystify Michael.

Might break a lot of hearts.

Making fun of me?

I don't blame you.

I understand you.

I'm glad you're such a sensitive man.

I'm glad you're such a sensitive man.

So, have you any more questions?

I'm still taking notes.

I hope you know how to string them together.

I can't tell you the number of times I've come out sounding like a jerk

with the quotations all out of context.

Tell me, when is this little story of yours going to break?

Would you like some more wine?

No, thank you. Well?

The truth is I'm not with Newsmakers Magazine.

Then who are you with?

You're going to kill me.

Why?

I'm not a journalist at all.

You're kidding.

I'm not a journalist at all.

You're kidding.

I'm not kidding.

So, there is no magazine, no journalist.

And don't tell me your name isn't even Linda.

My name is Linda. That much is true.

Oh, good.

I really wanted to meet you.

Well, that's very flattering.

You know, I should be furious with you.

I wouldn't blame you.

Are you?

Yes, I am.

Are you really?

Yes, and I should actually just leave you here and go back to the boat myself.

Where are you going?

I'm going to swim home.

Oh, Linda, don't be crazy. That water's freezing.

Come on. I'm swimming.

No, no, Linda, come on. Don't be...

Linda, come on out of it.

Don't come in.

All right. That's what you want, isn't it?

You stay there.

No, no, I'm going to get you.

No, stay there. I'm swimming home.

I'm going to get you. Come on. Come here.

Come on.

Whoa!

Oh!

I'm freezing!

I'm freezing!

A boat, mother, a sailboat. It's Michael's.

Yeah. I just wanted to call and say hi.

Oh, it's the first chance I got.

It's beautiful. The weather is fantastic, and the people are so nice.

I'm really having fun.

I don't know when I'll be home.

Because I just don't know.

My plans have changed. I...

Michael wants me with him all the time.

I don't like your tone of voice, mother.

It is true.

In fact, Michael asked me to marry him.

Of course I said yes.

We're in love.

Oh, don't worry, mother.

You'll meet him before the wedding.

I have to go now.

Yes, I'll call you. Bye, mother.

Sweetheart! That was my mother.

I'm so happy. Tell me, tell me honestly.

Are you as happy as I am?

Do you know this is the most wonderful thing that's ever happened...

Linda, who is Michael?

That's just my pet name for you. You know, from the show.

You just told your mother that we're getting married.

I didn't mean now. I meant eventually.

What the hell are you talking about? I can never marry you.

I mean, I'm already married.

What about last night?

Last night was wonderful. It was very special.

But you don't really honestly believe that it means anything, do you?

It doesn't mean anything?

You held me in your arms. You told me you loved me.

You said you'd never felt like that before.

What do you mean it doesn't mean anything?

It was... It was just the moment.

We don't even know each other.

I feel like we've always known each other.

Yeah, maybe, but the reality is that we have only just met.

Linda, I am very sorry. I had no intention...

Darling, I understand. I really do. I know the pressure you're under.

Don't let's spoil it.

It's such a beautiful day. I hate to go, you know, but I must.

Bye, darling.

BOBBY'S BALL

Bobby, how many times have I told you not to play in the street?

Why, I just wanted to get my ball.

You know you're supposed to play in the backyard.

Come on. Let's go find your mother.

Jackie, do you know where I found him?

He was running after his ball in the street. Why the hell can't you watch him?

Why don't you go upstairs, okay?

Why, Mommy, I didn't do anything.

I know, I know, but you need to take a bath. You are extremely dirty, okay?

So you go upstairs and start your bath and I'll be up in a second.

I'll leave you one day.

And you come back angrier than you were before you left.

What is happening with you?

I'll get it.

Hello?

How did you get this number?

I don't want you calling here. This is my home.

Hello?

Look, I told you, don't call me here.

No, no, Linda, you don't understand.

It didn't mean anything.

No, I never said that.

Now, please, don't call me here.

All right?

Who was that, Glenn?

No one.

Hello?

Who was that, Glenn?

No one.

I'm going to have to change the phone.

Why? Who's calling?

Oh, just some crazy woman.

What crazy woman?

Someone I met once. A fan.

What do you mean, met?

Why? What does she want?

Operator, I need to change my home phone.

How can I arrange that?

Fine, yeah, I'll do that. Thanks.

So, where did you meet?

At the boat. Yesterday.

Well, this woman came by, posing as a journalist.

A journalist.

And then she came up with this crazy story of how she'd been trying to meet me for years.

And then what happened?

Oh, we just sailed and she interviewed me.

Well, she was pretty convincing at first.

Oh, Jack, you do stop staring at me like that.

If you've got something to say, say it.

You know, I thought that it would be good if you spent some time alone this weekend.

I'd hope you'd be thinking about us.

And now this woman is calling all the time and I find out that you took her sailing. A fan!

What am I supposed to think?

Hello?

Yeah?

Douglas.

Come in.

Hi, Douglas. What's up?

Got a note for you.

Who gave you this?

A fine-looking lady.

Where is she?

Out in the lobby. Why don't you go out and talk to her? You've got the time.

Douglas, listen carefully. You go out there and you get rid of her and you never let her on this set again.

No, not today, not tomorrow, not any time, okay?

Okay. You're the boss.

Hey, Glenn. Let's run some lines.

I'm sorry, Powell. I'm wiped. I'll save it for the show.

Yeah, you do look terminal.

Thank you.

Margaret, can I have a word?

Yeah.

Honey, I need your help.

What's the matter?

I wondered if you might be interested in a little business.

What's the matter?

I wondered if you might write Michael out for a couple of weeks.

You're kidding.

No. I need to spend some time with my family.

That's impossible. I mean, that's totally against the logic of the story.

Margaret, nothing for you is impossible.

I mean, you do and undo these characters at your whim.

You decide what you need for the next 60 pages.

You sit at your typewriter and you turn it out like putty.

I mean, it's not impossible.

I beg your pardon.

Now, you listen to me.

I have been doing this show for 13 years.

And I was winning awards when you were nobody. You hear me?

Maybe you're tired of cashing fat checks, huh?

Because if you are, you let me know and we can get somebody else.

What is it, Douglas?

I'm sorry, but it's for Glenn.

The lady won't leave. She says that she's your fiancé.

Would you mind telling me what is going on here?

I have got this crazy woman, Margaret, on my back.

Look, you go back to work. I'll handle this, all right?

Douglas, come with me and tell me what's happening.

Margaret Chase. What a pleasure to meet you.

Glenn's told me so much about you.

Well, this isn't exactly the time to be social.

I understand that you were asked to leave.

I want you to know that you're upsetting Glenn very much

and we only have 10 minutes before we go to tape.

Miss Chase, this is very difficult for me,

but I think you might like to hear what I have to say.

I'm sorry. I'm needed on the set.

I know. But it concerns you. It concerns the show.

Did you know that Jackie's pressuring Glenn to leave Savage Hills?

No. Why would she do such a thing?

Because he's going to divorce her.

It's the only way she can hurt him.

You see, Glenn and I are going to get married.

Um, I really don't understand this.

I mean, Glenn says he doesn't even want to see you.

Well, that's his guilt.

Glenn is very vulnerable in this area

and Jackie knows exactly how to manipulate it.

Glenn would be lost without me and without the show.

Um, excuse me, Miss...

Please call me Linda.

Um, look, we are very close to taping,

so if you want to wait, I will have Glenn talk to you.

Thank you.

Okay.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Margaret, is she gone?

No.

You mean she is still here?

Will you pull yourself together? What's the matter with you?

Just go talk to the lady.

Okay, okay. I will.

Darling?

Don't worry. I'm not going to kiss you.

Why are you here?

I'm warning you. I don't want you calling my home again

and I don't want you coming back here.

I'm warning you. Don't try to push me away.

I'll do anything to keep you.

Are you threatening me?

Darling, I love you. I don't want to hurt you.

I just want to talk to you.

So you want to talk.

When?

Tonight.

Where?

At the hotel.

Be more private.

Okay.

Hello?

Hi.

I'm in 353. Come on up.

I'm waiting for you.

Coming up?

Yes, thank you.

Excuse me, sir. Aren't you Glenn Stevens?

No. No, I'm not.

Oh. You sure look like him.

Three, please.

Come in. It's open.

Darling.

You still don't understand.

You're here, aren't you?

Champagne or tea?

No, thank you. Linda, this is the last time

that we shall see each other.

Darling, I was looking at wedding rings today.

I was looking for simple bands,

but then I thought perhaps you'd like to see

something a little more...

Linda, please stop it!

What kind of sick fantasy

is going through that head of yours?

Michael, don't talk to me that way.

I am not Michael. I am Glenn.

Glenn Stevens.

And it was Glenn Stevens on the beach, not Michael.

Michael, what are you talking about?

We've been together for two years.

You've made love to me every night.

Michael is an image.

And you cannot make love to an image.

You need professional help.

You're sick.

Okay, that's enough.

Linda, come on.

Do you think I'll let you get away from me?

Do you think I'll let you go now that you're mine?

You don't know what I'll do to keep you.

You don't know how strong I am and how patient.

Try to fight me.

You'll lose.

All right.

All right, what do you really want?

Money?

Yeah, how much?

How much can you offer?

You don't know what it is to want something so much.

You do anything you want.

I worked for two years to make this happen.

Nobody can buy that.

Oh, God.

Linda, you must understand.

I love my family.

I don't love you.

I don't love you.

You love me.

No.

No.

You'll be back.

You'll be back.

You'll be back.

Hey, do you remember when that jerk Irv finally got us a job?

One job for the both of us.

He clothes us in a polar bear costume for some children's show.

After ten years of studying Stanislavski, I mean, that's when I decided to quit.

But not you.

You hung in there all right.

Now look, you got a show, you got a big house, you got a boat.

Yeah, it all looks pretty terrific from the outside, Satch.

But I'm in trouble.

Too many broads chasing you, huh?

Not too many, just one.

And she's a real psychopath.

Oh.

Oh.

What's the story?

Who are you?

Linda Foster.

What do you want?

I'd like to talk to you about Glenn. May I come in?

How long have you known each other?

About two years.

I don't understand. Glenn said you just met.

He's, uh, still trying to protect you.

I don't believe you.

Oh, it's true.

I know everything about your relationship with Glenn.

Everything.

I don't want to hear this. I think you should leave.

I think you should listen.

We didn't mean to hurt you.

I never thought this would become this serious.

Believe me, this isn't easy on any of us.

And I can imagine how hard it must be on you.

Oh, you can?

All those times he said he was just too tired.

You must have thought he was preoccupied with his part.

He was thinking about me.

Get out of my house.

Let's be adult, Jackie.

Your relationship with Glenn.

That fight you had the other day.

You broke the plate on the floor.

You tried to talk him into quitting the series.

We know how difficult Glenn is, don't we?

We know Glenn is self-centered, selfish, egocentric, impossible.

But he needs me.

You're crazy.

Oh, Jackie.

I know it hasn't been good for you and Glenn for a long time.

But it's been very good for us.

Where are you going, big guy?

Hey, what's happening?

Where's your mom?

Jackie, where are you going?

Jackie, what is this?

Jackie!

Let go of me or I'm going to call the police!

What?

You make me sick.

What kind of crazy behavior is this, huh?

Jackie?

Jackie?

She's gone.

She took it very well.

You've destroyed my family.

And now you're destroying me.

What do you want?

I love you.

You're crazy.

And I'm going to stop you.

I'm going to stop you.

I'm going to stop you.

I'm going to stop you.

I'm going to stop you if it's the last damn thing I do.

You're going to love me.

Thank you.

Oh, hi.

See that?

It's true.

How much of it is true?

Well, some of it.

Jackie is with her mother.

Linda came by yesterday and spoke to her.

I don't know what she said, but it was enough.

Jackie and Bobby are gone.

So, what do you have on her?

Linda Foster.

Her father died when she was six,

lived with her mother until she was 28,

described as a silent, even-tempered youngster

who would occasionally have bouts of uncontrollable hysteria.

All of this is related by her mother and her neighbors

because apparently her co-workers at the travel agency

hardly knew her.

Anyway, I found her in the files

of the Sandia Center for Mental Disorders,

hospitalized 1972 for severe depression,

released six months later.

I talked to an intern who remembered her.

In his opinion, she'd been an undying mother

who was a schizophrenic as a kid.

Oh.

Here comes the interesting part.

1982, she worked as a secretary

for a local trucking company.

She claimed an affair with the manager

and sued him for breach of promise.

Oh.

And did she win?

Nope.

Didn't make any difference.

She created such a scandal, the man was destroyed,

lost his job, started to drink,

and his wife left him.

Better than one of your soap opera stories, huh?

You can ask for a restraining order,

you can even sue for harassment,

but the trouble, Glenn, is that the woman is a crank.

She's got a totally unrealistic vision of life

and unfortunately that includes you.

But it's not me, it's the character I play.

That doesn't matter to her.

The two of you are one.

Oh, God, what a mess.

Well, how far do you think she'll go?

That's what I asked that intern at the Sandia Center.

I told him the whole story without naming you, of course,

and he said that he thought that she might do anything.

She might even try to kill you

if you don't fulfill her fantasies.

Terrific.

All right, all right.

So if you were in my shoes, what would you do?

Hey, I'm not in your shoes, pal.

Well, just imagine that you were.

You'd be in my shoes.

Hey, I'm not in your shoes, pal.

Well, just imagine that you were.

Come on, Cedric, I know you've got an answer.

Okay, okay.

You know you're getting a little crazy now yourself?

Listen, the one thing you don't do to a psychopath

is threaten their madness, and that's what you did.

If it were up to me,

I wouldn't wait for her to come after me.

I'd go get her.

All right.

All right, then maybe I'll go along with her,

fulfill her fantasy, huh?

Listen, Glenn, hey, look.

I've got a cabin up at Big Bear.

Why don't you lie low there for a couple of months?

Maybe she'll go away.

No.

No, I have to stay here.

Thanks.

Glenn, I've got to go.

I've got to go.

Did you make up your mind yet?

What is it?

Is it guilt?

Don't worry.

It doesn't last long.

Look.

Get away from me.

Get away from me.

I'm not a psychopath.

I'm not a psychopath.

I'm not a psychopath.

I'm not a psychopath.

I'm not a psychopath.

I'm not a psychopath.

Get away from me.

Please.

Just get away.

Get away.

Get away.

Beads of perspiration dot his forehead as Michael slowly removes a gun from the drawer.

Ready for rehearsal, Margaret.

OK, Ellie.

Ellie, what's another word for bigamist?

Huh?

Margaret.

Yeah?

Can I talk to you?

Now?

When did you write this?

Why?

You have me marry Shari.

Then this strange woman appears and seduces me.

She then becomes so obsessed with me that she tries to kill me.

You then have her put into a lunatic asylum,

and then have me realize that I am in love with her.

I mean, what kind of warped mind do you have?

Gee.

Come on, where's your sense of humor?

Haven't you ever heard of an odd imitating life?

Oh, so that's what you think my life's about, hm?

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Have you been speaking to that woman?

Well, what do you know?

Another creative difference.

Gareth, shut up, or I'll punch your face in.

Just relax now.

Stop it.

Margaret, you have not answered my question.

So I had lunch with the lady.

So you had lunch with the lady.

I mean, what right do you to plunder my privacy?

Seven year itch, huh, Glenn?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Relax, will you?

Stop it now.

Stop it, Glenn.

Let's go to my office.

Come on, we've got to talk.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on in, Glenn.

Why don't you sit down?

OK.

What's the problem?

I mean, you look awful.

I'm in trouble, Margaret.

And I'm going to need your help.

What?

I'm going to have to quit the show.

You mean that?

Yes, I do.

But I want you to know it's got nothing

to do with anything except my own need

to try to bring my life back together again.

You know, Glenn, I always said if you want to leave the show,

the door's wide open, huh?

The only reason I ever said that was because I really

never thought you'd leave.

I never really.

Yes.

Yeah, I know.

It's funny.

This crazy lady who's destroying my life in a weird way

has helped me to realize what's really important.

And it's more than the show, more even than success.

It's my family.

We're going to miss you, Glenn.

Thanks.

So how can I help?

I need a favor, a very big favor.

Yeah, 353, please.

I'm here.

I'm here.

Yes, of course.

Shari is at the beach house right now with Roger.

I've got to go over there.

I can't lose her.

No, don't worry.

I'll be all right.

Thanks.

See you at 4.

Goodbye.

Bye.

Michael, darling.

I'm so glad you're here.

I missed you.

I missed you so much.

Did you miss me?

I wish you'd been here a little earlier.

You know the show's nearly over.

I'm sorry.

How have you been?

I've been awful.

Three whole days without seeing you.

I thought I was going to go crazy.

But you're here now, aren't you?

You know, I feel we've spent a whole lifetime, don't you?

We have been through a lot.

But we're together now, forever.

Do you know, do you know how many times I've

dreamt of this moment, of being with you and watching the show?

Darling, what is it?

Is something the matter?

You seem so distant.

No, no, no, no.

It's nothing.

I just feel a little uncomfortable watching

myself on the television.

This show is wonderful.

You're wonderful in it.

Champagne?

Yes, thank you.

I thought we'd celebrate.

Don't go.

Shari, I'm asking you not to leave.

Let's not go through this again.

I love you.

I'm sorry.

Michael, we never meant for this to happen.

It's not going to.

I didn't want to have to stop you like this.

Hey, come on.

Now don't do anything crazy.

Michael, please.

No.

Ah!

Michael.

Michael.

He's dead.

Oh!

No.

It was the only way.

No.

Michael?

Michael.

Michael!

Linda.

No!

Linda.

Michael.

No.

You know, I'm really looking forward to going home.

Now that I know you're going to be there.

It wasn't so bad this time.

Ready, Miss Foster?

Your taxi is here.

We're all glad that you've done so well.

So am I.

Take good care of yourself.

I'll carry your bag.

Thank you.
