Melrose Place s04e33 Episode Script
Dead Sisters Walking (1)
I'm sorry, doctor, but we caught two people breaking into the facility.
They say they're friends of yours.
Those people are not my friends.
Nurse Benson, suture Mr.
Peters up and take him back to his ward.
Now.
Um, I don't have time to explain, but those people are extremely dangerous.
They're escaped mental patients.
Now, we don't want to set them off, so follow my lead.
Dr.
Kimberly Shaw.
If you get her out here, she'll explain everything.
It's all right.
Come on, all right now? Will you get your hands off me? All right, see? What are you two doing here? We're looking for you, babe.
And Peter.
Where is he? I have no idea.
Did you lose him? Oh, cut the crap, Kimberly.
I know you've got him locked up in this nut house.
This is not a nut house.
It's a private hospital.
And since I'm in charge, I'm asking you to please go.
Escort them out.
Kimberly-- Kimberly, wait.
Take it easy.
Now, look, sweetie, we're just a little confused here, you see? You told me you were going to Hawaii, and then you ended up here, and, coincidentally, Peter disappeared at the same time.
Look, we're divorcing, Michael.
I shouldn't have to explain any of this to you.
But as it happens, I am moonlighting here while the resident doctor is on vacation.
Now, please leave.
W-w-wait.
I am not leaving until I see Peter.
Now, cooperate with us or I'll go straight to the medical board and have them investigate this place.
All right.
Peter is here.
He came here to avoid prosecution, and as his friend, I've agreed to help him.
Are you saying he skipped out for good? He's an innocent man.
Why would he do that? Ask him yourself.
I'll take you to him.
Follow me.
Now we're getting somewhere.
Don't be shocked by what you're about to see.
Spare the dramatics and open the damn door.
Michael! Bye-bye, suckers! [groaning.]
Amanda, run for it! Lock down! Search every room, every closet until you find them! Move it! Let your soul Be your valley Let your soul guide you And guide you well When you're down And they're counting When your secrets Are found out When your troubles Take to mounting When the map you had Leads you to doubt When there's no more Information And the clock has turned Nowhere that you know where He's a monster and he always will be.
No one can stop him.
Not God, not Jake, not the police.
Only us.
Jane? Not to upset you, but I think you need professional help.
I'm not crazy, Sydney.
In fact, I have never had more clarity.
Richard has to die.
Thou shalt not kill.
The Bible? Ring a bell? It's a sin, Jane.
Not to mention, totally illegal.
An eye for an eye, that's in the Bible too.
To kill Richard may be legally wrong, but it's morally right.
No, Jane, it's not.
That's why when you kill someone in cold blood, you get the death penalty! Are you hearing any of this, Jane? The death penalty! Shh! It only happens if you're caught.
Besides, it's not like you have a choice.
Jane you're my sister.
I'm worried about your afterlife.
Don't you believe in hell? Fire and brimstone? Retribution? No, but I believe in the devil.
And you're gonna help me kill him.
Would you please move your foot? I can't.
It's asleep.
I've got no feeling in it.
Ow! I guess that feeling came back.
I don't believe this.
We're stuck in a heating duct because Kimberly, in her dementia, convinced these people that we belong in a padded cell.
Yeah, I know.
God only knows what's happening to Peter.
We've gotta get out of here.
I know.
Well, if you know so much, why don't you do something? Come up with an idea? You know, there are probably video cameras everywhere.
Kimberly sounded the alarm, so the place is locked up tight, and for all we know, the guards are armed.
Then we just need to find a phone, call the authorities, and they'll bust us out.
What? You have a better idea? Actually, no.
But I don't want anybody to get hurt.
Not Kimberly, not Peter, and not us.
Well, I'm sure we all appreciate the sentiment, but let's get going.
Shh.
What's going on? [gasps loudly.]
Yuck! I need to get that exterminator back out here again.
Are you feeling any better at all? I'm so hot, my eyes are burning.
Do you want me to get you a nurse? I'm missing school.
I've got a test.
Ooh, he's really out of it.
Dominick said he had an allergic reaction to the first antibiotic they tried.
He's had a high fever for two days.
I'm burning up.
I feel like I'm gonna die.
Matt, don't even talk like that.
Matt? Matt?! Jo, he's just sleeping.
We should let him get some rest.
Come on.
I never allowed myself to think it before, but he could die, couldn't he? Hey.
He's a fighter.
He's gonna be fine.
He'd better be, or I'll kill him.
And it's your job to finish on schedule.
Yeah? And I'm tired of stepping around wet cement and going around the back to get in my own house.
No, it makes me the perfect target for a mugger.
Well, if you can't finish on time, I'm sure there's a contractor who can.
Thank you.
So, stranger, what can I do for you? Oh, I just came by to drop off these sketches.
I didn't think you'd be here.
My meeting got pushed.
Now I'm glad it did.
I miss you, Jane.
I miss seeing you in and out of the office, you know? Don't you miss that, too? Sure.
Well, prove it.
Kiss me.
Richard, please, not in the office.
Come on, just give me a little something.
I promise I won't bite this time.
Okay.
[whistles.]
Good girl.
Now I can get to that meeting.
Oh, and Jane? Uh, next time, on the lips.
Next time won't be on the lips, Richard.
It'll be between the eyes.
You're exaggerating, right? Yeah, I wish.
Alison hates my guts.
I don't blame her.
What, you got a little drunk.
A recovering alcoholic doesn't see it that way.
Worse, I took her to this schmoozy restaurant where everybody knew my name.
And so, everything the woman can't stand about me, I managed to rub her nose in.
Speaking of.
Boy, it's really hopping.
Glad I came in early.
So is Billy.
He has something to tell you.
Jake, enough with the match-making.
It's not right to shut out somebody who cares, Alison.
The guy just wants to talk.
Fine.
What is it? Well, I wasn't quite ready to discuss this, but since it's come up, I just wanted you to know that I'm making amends with, uh, you know, with all the people that I've burned.
Billy, you don't know the first thing about making amends.
I've happened to have learned from your experience in AA.
Give me a break.
I'm not doing this for you, okay? I'm doing this so that maybe I can feel a little bit better about myself, so give me some credit for that.
Look, this is all very admirable, but you should know this probably isn't gonna change my feelings for you.
Well, key word--probably.
I have to go punch in.
So? I think I got my foot back in the door.
Okay, I can take a hint.
You're not into this.
No.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's not you.
It's not.
I guess I'm just worried.
Do you think you could call the hospital again? Jo, I did.
Less than an hour ago.
Matt's fever broke.
He's out of the woods.
Are you sure this isn't about something else? Or someone else? What? Like who? Well, you never said you were monogamous.
I never thought I had to.
I never said you did.
Wait a second-- You can't just say something like that and then put your pants on.
I saw you and some guy down at the hospital.
He had his arms around you.
[laughing.]
That was Jake, you idiot.
He's just a friend.
Really? Is that all he's ever been? You're feeling insecure, aren't you? The great Dominick O'Malley is feeling insecure.
Well, it's about damn time.
It's not funny.
I'm not laughing.
It's just nice to see you so not in control for a change.
In fact, it kinda turns me on.
You're a very strange woman.
You know that? Maybe.
But that kinda turns you on, doesn't it? Maybe.
I'll tell you what.
You come back to bed and we'll take turns being in control.
First, we'll do it my way, which means nice and slow.
Slow, huh? Yeah.
Yeah? We have all the time in the world.
Oh.
You you okay, Peter? Y-you want to talk or play solitaire or something? No, Louie, I I'm in kind of a fog here, Louie, and I've gotta-- I've got to get out of it.
I've got to concentrate, Louie.
Just blend in.
Don't draw attention to yourself.
That's easy for you to say.
Okay, concentrate.
Hey, there's a phone over there.
Amanda.
Her? You want her? Amanda.
Okay, okay, I'll go get her.
Come with me, lady.
Hey, hey! Hey, get your mitts off her.
No, no! He told me to! Shh.
Be quiet.
Peter wants you.
Right there.
Oh, my God.
It's him.
See? Shh.
Just be quiet.
Amanda, is it you? Is it really you? I'm gonna get you out of here.
Can you walk? I don't think so.
Come on, we've got to move it.
Hey, no, wait.
What are you doing? No! No, that's against the rules! That's against the rules! That's against the rules! Alert Dr.
Shaw.
Stop! Stop right there! End of the line, psychos.
A psychiatric team from the state mental hospital in Arizona is on its way.
Now, they have asked us to keep their patients locked up until they arrive.
Are you sure we've got the right people? I checked their IDs.
One of them's a doctor.
When were you born, Dave-- yesterday? Anyone with 50 bucks can get a fake license.
No, these are escaped mental patients.
The blond doesn't look crazy to me.
Well, despite their appearances, these people are extremely dangerous, and we need to keep them isolated.
Now, come here.
Only the three of us can know where they are.
Understood? All right, then.
Back to work.
Doctor, I can't locate Mr.
Peters.
Did you have him moved? Yes, away from you, and you should be grateful.
If anyone knew that you had consorted with a patient well, do I have to draw you a picture? What happened to that man and woman? Where are they? Their car is parked out front.
Well, maybe they had a dead battery.
As far as I know, they've left-- In the meantime, we have plenty of other patients who need your attention.
If I were you, I would worry about them, hmm? This is ridiculous-- Kimberly locking us in a boiler room.
God, it's hot in here.
I can't believe you did all this for me.
All what, Peter? We're locked in a boiler room.
The rescue was a bust.
Yeah, but at least I have company now.
You look great.
For having spent the night with rats, you mean.
Want to tell me what happened? How you ended up here? Kimberly and I were on the way to the police station so she could corroborate my alibi.
Out of nowhere, she stabs me with a hypodermic and here I am at Willowbridge, and everybody's calling me Mr.
Peters.
The woman should be locked up for life.
Well, there's no way out.
And for your information, Kimberly's not well.
She needs help.
She's way past needing help, Michael.
Amanda's right.
She's slipped over the edge.
She's gone.
You know, she was trying to lobotomize me.
I was on an operating table when the two of you showed up.
Someone should have her lobotomized.
Look, I don't care what either one of you say.
I love Kimberly and I'm not giving up on her.
Kimberly doesn't exist anymore, Michael.
She's gone.
And whoever's taken over wants to keep it that way, which means making sure that we don't exist.
Hi! Hi.
I've left five messages on your answering machine.
What can I say? I've been busy.
Right-- so busy you don't have time for your best friend? Or am I wrong about that? Right now, my best friend is me.
Oh, come on, Jane.
You can't stop people from caring.
Look, you've been through an incredible trauma, and Jake and I want to be there for you.
Well, maybe you two need to get a life or at least find someone else to obsess on.
Hell, maybe you and Jake should date each other.
That way, you'd both be off my back.
This is just misdirected anger, Jane.
I know you still have feelings for him.
Right now, I feel nothing for Jake, and frankly, I don't feel a hell of a lot for you, either.
Well, I see you got your appetite back.
Yeah, I feel so much better.
Even this hospital food tastes good.
I'm gonna go for seconds.
No, wait.
Don't push it, Matt.
I thought we were going to lose you.
What, with a doctor as good as Dominick attending? He's the best.
Yeah, so he keeps telling me.
Am I sensing some ambivalence here? No, I just-- You know, the man can't be perfect, and I just have a feeling that he's hiding something.
Look, Dominick is not like the guys that you've been dating lately, if that's what you're worried about.
Oh, well, you must be feeling better.
I think I was just insulted.
No, look, just-- just, Jo, you deserve someone who's great.
And you finally found him.
So I should stop worrying and count my blessings, right? Right.
Hello? Hi.
Good morning.
Hi, is your boss here yet? Yeah, she is.
She's back there on the phone.
She'll be out in a minute.
So, I hope you don't mind I called you, Jane.
I mean, you are a serious buyer, right? Are you kidding? This place fits in with my plans perfectly.
Great.
Here she is.
Margo, this is Jane Mancini.
No introduction necessary.
I'm a big fan of your designs.
What brings you to my little boutique? Well, Samantha told me that you're selling your business.
I'm here to discuss buying it.
Well, that's really quite flattering, but you should know that someone has already offered me a very substantial sum.
Jane, I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
What if I were to top it? Then you'd be the new owner.
Great.
Just give me the number I need to beat.
You realize it would not be legal for me to do that.
Excuse me.
Wait.
Uh, look, you just don't know how much I was counting on this.
I'm sure you were.
But we have to play by the rules, Jane.
Tell you what-- Why don't you leave your offer with Samantha? Maybe you'll be lucky.
What did you want to see me about? Dr.
Shaw, Zig and I were talking.
Shouldn't those escapees be in cells? Yeah.
We never used the boiler room for anything like this before.
Well, of course you haven't.
How often have you had murderers on the loose? Murderers? Look, I didn't want to panic the staff, but those people killed several workers just like you in a hostage situation in Arizona.
Seems I would have heard about it on the news.
Dave, it was so grisly, the hospital had to cover it up.
What those people did to those workers would make you sick.
Now, we're not gonna let that happen here, are we? No, ma'am.
Don't they still need to eat? No.
Because I have scheduled them for surgery.
I thought the Arizona people were picking them up.
Yes, they are, but they have asked me to perform lobotomies on them first.
You don't make it a habit of questioning Dr.
Tucker.
Sorry to have bothered you, Dr.
Shaw.
Big mouth.
Man, will you two please stop pacing? You're making me dizzy.
How long can she keep us locked up here? You're her husband.
What do you think? You want to know what I think? I think this is all your fault.
Me? Yeah.
I was kidnapped, I was drugged.
I was given shock treatment.
I'm the victim here.
No, Kimberly confided in you.
She told you she was sick, and all you were interested in was your damn alibi, so she flipped out.
You brought it on.
That is such garbage.
Every day that you have been in her life, you have driven her closer to the brink of insanity.
That and your indiscretion with little Miss Tarzana there certainly loosened a few bolts.
Hey, hey, what is this? Blame Michael day? I'm not the reason we're here.
I wanted to call the cops, but blondie over here didn't want you to get arrested! What? Yeah, that's right.
That's why we're here, locked in a boiler room! By your wigged-out wife.
Hey, come on, come on! Let's not turn on each other.
Now, we've got to keep our heads, figure a way to get out of here.
That's assuming there is a way out.
There is, there is.
Man, I've just got to talk to Kimberly.
If I can, I can get her to calm down and think straight.
Oh, God.
You all right? I can't breathe.
I need air.
You know what? I saw a broken window up there earlier.
Well, let's go up top.
Maybe we can get some fresh air.
You all right? Dizzy.
Okay.
Here you are, ladies.
Thank you.
Can I get some cream? Sure.
If Margo knew that I was meeting you here, she would get the wrong idea.
Samantha, whatever happens with the sale of the boutique, I want us to be friends.
As a matter of fact, I was wondering how you'd feel about staying on as assistant manager.
That'd be great, if I were staying in L.
A.
You're moving? Why? Mmm, you know, your basic sob story.
I broke up with my boyfriend.
Now he wants me to move out.
I mean, even if you could match my salary, I couldn't afford an apartment on my own.
Well, before you move, don't you think you should at least consider finding a roommate? Ever seen Single White Female? Actually, I could use a roommate.
And I could guarantee you a raise.
Jane.
I-- I-- I don't know.
Look, I'm not doing this because I want something from you.
Although, none of this would really matter if I don't beat the other offer.
You're not asking me to tell you what the other offer is, are you? I wouldn't mind if you did.
I don't think that's very ethical, Jane.
Look, you want to talk ethics? If I win, Margo gets more money, you come work for me, and the other party finds a property down the street.
So who really loses? Just write the number down.
[knock on door.]
Welcome to my humble home.
Hi.
Hi.
I'll get us some wine.
Hey, grab the door, will you? Pretty amazing we've been seeing each other for a month, and this is the first time I'm at your place.
I was beginning to think you had a girlfriend or a wife stashed somewhere.
Well, not yet, anyway.
A toast--to us.
Mmm.
Jo, I think we should get married.
[chokes.]
[coughs.]
I'm glad I didn't ask you over dinner.
Why are you asking me at all? We barely know each other.
Four weeks, two days.
Don't--don't do that.
Don't pull that Mr.
Romantic crap on me.
You know, you're not making this very easy.
Why the hell should I? Whatever happened to slowing down? I can't.
I love you.
And you love me don't you? I don't know what I feel.
I don't know, and I don't even know if I would trust you enough to tell you if I did know.
I think I'm leaving.
Come here.
Now, you tell me you don't trust that.
[sighs.]
I want more than chemistry.
[door closes.]
Jake, we've got to talk about my sister.
I don't want to talk about Jane, and I especially don't want to talk about Jane with you.
Jake, listen-- Jane is acting really weird.
This whole rape thing is totally getting to her.
Look, Jane made her choices-- she's chosen to handle things the way she's handling them.
No, that is my point.
Her choices are funky, and they're really freaking me out.
She needs guidance from someone who's morally grounded.
Someone she loves.
Well, that's not me.
Jane prefers the company of a rapist these days.
And don't you think that's a little peculiar? Jake, you've got to talk to her.
Stop her from doing anything rash.
Rash? Like what? Like whatever.
Can't you at least just go see her? She's on her own.
Great.
So, that just leaves me then, huh? Is everything all right? Fine.
What do you need? Actually, I was wondering if you'd like to catch a movie tonight.
You know, I think that lines get a little fuzzy with me being your employer, so why don't we keep socializing to a minimum? You know, Jake, one of the things I've always loved about you is how good a friend you are, and I've seen you prove it again and again with Billy, so why can't I have a piece of that? Aren't we friends, too? You have a whole building full of people that can go to the movies with you, and frankly, to be honest with you, I don't need the complication.
Oh.
I didn't realize friendship was a complication.
But at least I know where I stand.
Billy is a friend, and I'm just an employee.
That's it.
Jane, I'm not really in the mood for shopping.
Why are we here? Because by this time next week, I'll own this place.
Well, you're just full of plans, aren't you? Well, at least this one's legal.
It is legal, isn't it? Well, Jane, I don't know how you did it, but you inched out the competition.
I did? Oh, that's great.
Congratulations.
Thank you, both of you.
[clears throat.]
Oh, sorry.
This is my sister, Sydney.
Sydney, this is Margo and Samantha.
Hi.
Bonjour.
Pleased, I'm sure.
So, Jane, I guess this means you'll be dropping everything else and focusing on something new and healthy, right? Well, I still have a few odds and ends to take care of.
I hate bringing up money, but how do you want to handle the down payment? Oh, well, I can pay you now-- that is, if you take cash.
Well, you must have been very confident about this deal.
I had a good feeling about it.
So, when can I take possession? Let's discuss the details in my office, shall we? Your sister is really amazing.
When she sets her mind to something, nothing can stop her.
Tell me about it.
The point is, you need to take it easy.
Look, I've got to get back to class.
I've got exams this week.
What are you doing out of bed? You're not discharging him, are you? Unfortunately, the patient is exercising his free will.
Matt, this is really stupid of you.
Look, I am fully recovered, and I'll continue to take my antibiotics and get plenty of rest.
I promise.
Has anybody ever told you guys you'd make a nice couple? I'll see you later.
Thanks.
Aren't you gonna stop him? Aren't you gonna give me an answer? I did propose last night.
It's really very simple.
Just a yes or a no.
O'Malley, don't make me do this.
Indulge me.
All right.
No.
All right.
If that's your answer, I accept it.
Wait-- That doesn't mean I don't want to see you.
I mean, I really enjoy you.
It's just too much.
It's too fast.
For you, maybe.
Not for me.
See you tomorrow, Jake.
Well, I guess it's too nice a night for people to stay inside.
I guess so.
Alison, I didn't mean to imply that we weren't friends.
I like your company and I respect your opinions.
I think you're great, okay? You sure have a weird way of showing it.
What do I have to do to make it up to you? [music plays.]
Dance with me.
Alison, I've got a business to run.
You don't have any customers.
Come on-- It won't be complicated, and you're not breaking any labor laws.
After all the words were spoken last night Do you remember this song? Yeah.
I had the album.
[laughing.]
I sit here on the porch step Wonderin' if we'll ever get it right I'm not gonna do this.
This is silly.
No, it's not! It's fun! It's something that's been missing from your life lately.
You know what's been missing from your life? Billy.
You really oughta give him another chance.
I'm not interested in Billy anymore.
All right, enough dancing, okay? Hey, where is everybody? What's going on here? Slow night.
In fact, I was just about to send Alison home.
Want me to walk you? No.
No, thank you.
I think I'm gonna stick around.
It might get busy again.
Thanks.
For what? For trying to sell Alison on me.
Yeah.
Anything for a friend.
Looks like you're fading.
Not a good sign when the exam's tomorrow.
I know-- I've still got three hours of reading left and a lab at 8 a.
m.
, and, you know, the coffee machine is broken.
Do what I do.
Which is? Amphetamines? I don't think so.
Don't worry, it's not street.
It's a prescription.
Thanks for the offer.
It's-- You know, it's just not my thing.
You're gonna change your mind around midnight tonight.
That's a student's best friend.
So now you're getting a roommate? Uh-huh.
Samantha, from the store.
Hmm.
As if you weren't already making one too many life changes.
[knocking on door.]
Uh, do you mind getting that? I need to finish getting dressed.
Get the door, Syd.
Kill Richard, Syd.
Whatever you say, Jane.
Good morning.
Jane around? Um, yeah.
She's getting dressed.
You mind if I have some coffee while I wait? Sure.
Go right ahead, I guess.
So, how are you doing, Sydney? Me? Um, okay.
Got a lot on my mind.
You know, you, um you're looking a little pale.
I think you've been working too much, I bet.
I think you need a vacation.
I don't have any time.
I'd make the time if I were you.
I'd take that trip sooner rather than later.
[clears throat.]
Good morning.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
Um, Richard, Do you mind waiting in the car? Sydney and I have some family business to discuss.
Yeah, no problem.
Nice talking to you, Syd.
Um, I hope that we can get to know each other better, especially since your sister and I are close again.
Hmm.
Yeah.
I'll see you soon.
Sydney, what the hell do you think you were doing? Just making conversation.
You were trying to get Richard to leave town.
Why are you having such a hard time with this? Because I am the only one in the room with a conscience.
I mean, think about it, Jane.
Do you want to live in a world where a person like me has more morals than a person like you? As long as Richard's not in it, I don't give a damn what kind of world I live in.
Oh.
Excuse me.
Jo.
The door was open.
What are you doing here? Well, I hadn't heard from you, so I thought I'd just come by and see what was going on.
Uh-huh.
Well, as you can see, I'm moving.
Yeah, I kind of figured that out.
To where? Bosnia.
No, really.
To where? There's a team of doctors going over.
It's a year-long commitment.
I'll be working with orphans mostly.
Excuse me.
Wait a second.
I say no to you, and you decide to move off to some war-torn country? It's been in the works for months.
Months? How dare you make me fall in love with you and then do something like this.
Oh, so you do love me, huh? That's beside the point.
No, it isn't! If you love me, why don't you marry me? What's holding you back? How about my life, for one? My career, my friends? Not to mention that you never told me about this master plan of yours for us.
I just thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me as a doctor, for you as a photographer, but, you know, what's the point in even talkt it now? Because you said no.
Now I'm moving on.
And maybe you should, too.
Go to hell.
That's one description of it.
I'm sorry.
Foreverything.
Me, too.
This is a stupid way to die.
I'm sorry, too.
[door opening.]
I'm not sure why I came.
You gotta get us out of here.
Dr.
Shaw says your friends are escaped mental patients.
She's lying.
She's suffering from multiple personality disorder.
I'm Dr.
Shaw's husband, and unfortunately, what he's saying is true.
You gotta believe us.
We're not crazy.
She's the one who's crazy.
I'm beginning to think you're right.
I heard her talking.
She's planning on having you all lobotomized.
Oh, my God.
She wouldn't do that-- not to me.
If you know that Dr.
Shaw's unbalanced, then it's your duty to help us.
Open the door.
Please.
So, not only did you disobey me, but you have put this entire facility at risk, haven't you, nurse? I was just checking on them.
[Michael.]
Kimberly Listen to me.
I want you to let Peter and Amanda go.
You step back.
There.
Now, I love you.
Do you hear that? I love you.
Call me Betsy.
No.
You're Kimberly.
And this other witch, whoever the hell she is, you've got to fight her.
Now, somewhere inside you is a woman I love, and a woman who loves me.
Don't touch me.
Our love is worth fighting for, Kimberly.
You're a liar, a liar.
You're wonderful.
You're wonderful.
You're everything that this monster that's taken you over is not.
You're an adulterer.
You don't love her.
You don't love her.
Nobody loves her.
No, no.
Hey.
Listen to me.
Betsy's the liar.
You hear me? Betsy's the liar! She doesn't want you to be loved, but I love you.
I love you, and nothing's ever gonna change that.
Now, come on, Kimberly.
Come on, come back.
Come on, come back! No, no! Come on! Come on! No, I hate you! I hate you! Oh, God.
Oh Oh Oh Come on.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I need help.
Please help me.
It's okay.
It's okay, I'm here.
I don't know what kind of weird medicine this is, but let go of the doctor and step back! You don't understand.
Yeah, I do! You're boinking Peters, and this other guy's hypnotizing Dr.
Shaw! No.
No, he's not.
I'm fine.
Just let them go, please? Let them all go, okay? What? Dave, it's been a misunderstanding.
Please escort my friends to the front gate.
Follow me.
[Peter.]
Are you coming? No.
I'm not leaving without Kimberly.
Wait a minute! Nobody's going anywhere! Go ahead! Stop 'em! [alarm blaring.]
I told you they could go! Get your mitts off her! Wait! I'll show you the way out! Hurry! Hey! Where do you think you're going! That's for all those times you made me miss dinner.
Here.
You'll need this to get out the gate.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'll call the police! What about Michael and Kimberly? They'll be okay.
The cops will be here any minute, which means you can't be.
Hurry up! Here he comes! You're all crazy.
You're not gonna pin all this on me! Don't you hurt him! Aaaahhhh! Kimberly! Kimberly! Her vitals are stable.
Pulse 86.
Pressure is She's been in and out of consciousness since we got her on a chopper.
I'll order a CAT scan, make sure there's no neurological damage.
How far did Kimberly fall? Look, you'd better get her a cross table lateral c-spine x-ray, too.
Thank God her fall was broken by that orderly.
We'll take it from here, Michael.
Thanks.
Dr.
Mancini, I need to ask you some questions about your partner.
Do you know where he is? Look, my wife's on a gurney in there.
I don't know whether she's gonna live or die, so right now, I don't give a damn about Peter Burns.
I see you found something to wear.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, tell Matt I owe him one.
Peter, we need a plan.
You can't stay here forever.
I think you should leave the country.
I have an alibi.
Well, Michael called, and your alibi is in critical condition.
Apparently, Kimberly took a nose-dive in that boiler room.
Where is she? Wilshire Memorial.
But you can't go there-- It's crawling with cops.
I, um I could drive you to Mexico.
Mexico?! I'm not leaving everything behind, including you, to open up a practice somewhere south of the border.
Well, it sure beats the alternative.
No.
The real Kimberly is back.
Now, we saw her.
I know she remembers that dinner, and if she doesn't, I can make her remember.
I want you to drive me to the hospital.
Please.
All right, I'll take you tonight, after it's dark.
Okay.
Listen, I want to I want to thank you for, uh Believing in you? Yeah, and uh Risking my life? Yeah.
And Saving yours? That, too.
Well, it's taken me a long time to realize this, but I want you in my life.
Sowhatever I have to do.
Listen, uh have you come across any loose checks lately? The bookkeeper says nine are missing out of the back of the checkbook.
You know I don't get involved in the numbers side of the business.
I don't even have access to the checks.
Well, you did last week when you were in my office.
That's where they're kept, Jane.
You know what I think? I think that you're just using this as an excuse to be in my office.
I see the way you've looked at me lately.
You want me again, don't you? You know I do.
Well, if you're really nice, you just might get me.
Jane, I want to talk to you.
Look, Jake, I thought I made myself clear.
It's over between us.
Fine.
But you can't be interested in this guy.
Tell me that much.
Yeah, tell him, Jane.
My every waking thought is of Richard.
I am completely focused on him.
Satisfied? I don't know why you're doing this, but's it's sick! Just go, Jake.
He sure left with his tail between his legs.
Did he? I'd better get back to work.
It's about time you woke up.
How are you feeling? Michael, I'm so sorry.
Don't talk.
Just listen.
I love you, and What do you have, a death wish? There are cops all over the hospital.
Yeah, I know.
I saw them.
How is she? She's barely conscious.
If you would have called, I would have told you that.
He just wants to ask her Look, she can't play You're gonna have to wait a few days.
I haven't got a few days.
Kimberly? Can you hear me? It's Peter.
Peter, I'm so sorry.
I need you to concentrate.
We had dinner last week, out at the airport.
You were having some problems, and we were gonna take you and check you into the hospital.
Do you remember? I can't think.
I can't think, Peter.
It was at the airport.
It was last week, Kimberly.
Think.
I need you to think.
Look, that's enough.
Peter! That's enough.
When she gets well, then you get help.
Understood? Let's go.
Come on.
That's him right there.
Sorry, doctor, but you are wanted for murder.
Knew we'd catch you sooner or later, Burns.
Cuff him.
I'll get you a lawyer.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
Guess I should have listened to you.
[knocking on door.]
It's getting packed out here.
Could use some help.
Yeah.
Well, I could use a little privacy.
Jake, you've been holed up in here for three hours with a bottle of tequila.
Is there something you want to talk about? Let me guess.
This is where you stick your nose in my business and get all empathetic, right? Excuse me, Jake, but we are friends.
I'm allowed to ask why you're hurting.
Friends, right? Then why have you been throwing yourself at me? If you want to get tanked and imagine things, that's fine.
But I don't want to participate in it.
Oh, yeah, then why'd you come in here? You want me to do you right here on the desk? Jake.
I don't know, I keep trying to be a nice guy and it seems all you women want is someone to treat you like trash.
This is not about me.
Uh-huh.
It's all about you.
You've got a good guy in Billy.
He loves you and he wants to treat you right, but you've got to come sniffing around me, don't you? I am gonna forget this conversation ever happened.
No, I don't want you to forget.
I'm not interested in you.
You got that? I'm not interested.
Now get out of here.
Well, good morning.
You got a minute? What, are you stalking me now? I didn't want to take a chance at waking on you.
You know, you're workin' nights.
How considerate, but right now the last thing I need to hear is how great you are for me.
Well, I'm not saying that I'm the best thing since sliced bread.
I'm just telling you that, I'm taking a look at myself, you know, and my actions and trying to take some steps to correct them.
Well, congratulations.
You've officially grown up.
So why not give me another chance? You know, go out with me? Tomorrow we could-- you know, justgo out with me.
Tomorrow night we could start over.
All right.
It's a date.
Okay.
You won't be sorry.
This will be a new beginning for us.
Fine.
I'll see you tomorrow night.
Ching! Got a date.
Not bad, huh? Looks like things are working out with you two.
Took some doing, but I knew she'd come around eventually.
Nice.
How's Kimberly? Last I heard, she was still out of it.
I'm being arraigned in the morning.
I know.
Look at me.
Look at where I am.
I don't want you to get dragged through this.
Now, I want you to get up and walk away.
I can't.
I won't.
There's nothing you can do to save me this time.
Walk away.
I'd give you a tissue, but I'm all out.
Don't you people have anything better to do than harass law-abiding citizens? You already arrested one.
The courts might disagree with you, in light of what we found in Alycia Barnett's car.
Really? What was that? Records showing that Peter Burns, your current boyfriend, set up Bobby Parezi, your recently deceased ex-boyfriend.
Do I have to do your job for you? Alycia killed Bobby and covered her tracks to make Peter look guilty.
It's not that complicated.
Didn't Dr.
Burns confess to you that he set Parezi up? Anything Peter told me is confidential.
Not to the grand jury.
I won't be testifying in front of the grand jury.
That's where you're mistaken.
You're not his lawyer, you're not a priest, and you're not his wife.
So guess what? That makes you the People's star witness against Burns.
Keep an eye out for that subpoena and have a good night.
How can you eat at a time like this? If not now, when? Besides, we won't have to worry about our weight anymore.
Mmm.
I'm gonna miss lobster.
[sound of door opening.]
It's time.
Come on, Syd.
Let's go.
No, I won't go.
You can't make me go.
You can't make me go.
I won't go.
I didn't want to kill Richard.
Jane wanted to.
She made me do it.
She blackmailed me.
Have some dignity, for God's sake.
I don't wanna die.
I don't wanna go to hell.
Please! Somebody! Please! Shut up, Sydney, and take your gas like a man! [screams.]
Syd, wake up.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, it was horrible.
We were dead sisters walking.
Syd, it was just a dream.
Right.
A dream.
Jane, what are you doing in my apartment anyway? I was out shopping.
Richard knows about the money.
We have to act quickly.
How quickly? Tomorrow night.
Jane? Read this with me.
Pray with me.
Put your decision in the hands of a higher power.
I am.
Smith and Wesson's.
I'll pick you up at 6:00.
We'll have dinner first.
The peritoneal tap showed blood in your abdomen.
Once we get that burst spleen out, you're gonna be A-OK.
Don't sugarcoat it.
I know I could die.
You're not gonna die.
I caused so much pain to so many people.
I think about what I almost did to Peter.
And to you.
I don't deserve to live.
Honey, stop talking like that.
You're gonna be fine.
[Kimberly.]
I don't understand how you can still love me.
Well, I do.
End of story.
See you in recovery.
You wouldn't even look at me at the arraignment.
Michael called.
Kimberly's in surgery.
She has internal bleeding.
Guess it's pretty serious.
They want me to testify before the grand jury.
They want me to say that you set Bobby up and ruined his business.
Don't perjure yourself because of me.
Just tell the truth.
Peter, I talked to your lawyer.
A wife doesn't have to testify against her husband.
Marry me.
What? I said I want you to marry me.
No! I mean why? Why, because you feel sorry for me? Because you think it might help me? You have pursued me relentlessly for months, and now I want to get married and you're not interested? You still love me, don't you? More than anything.
That's why you deserve more than conjugal visits to a husband who's behind bars.
I don't want you to come back here, and if you do, I won't see you.
[knock on door.]
What? You got a little chocolate chip on your upper lip.
I didn't wake you, did I? What are you doing here? Well, I just I just wanted to tell you that I was wrong for assuming that you'd leave the life that you have here to follow me halfway around the world.
Well, thank you for stating the obvious.
And in my own defense, I want you to know that I acted out of love only.
Anything else? No.
No, that's pretty much it.
I came said what I had to say, and now, I'm going.
My plane leaves in a few hours.
So this is good-bye.
Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
O'Malley? I think that if you only have a few hours left in this country, you should spend them with me.
Two vodka tonics.
So, you're going out with Billy tonight? Yeah, and if it's all right with the boss, I'd like to leave early.
Sure.
For what it's worth, I think you're doing the right thing.
Well, as you so eloquently pointed out the other night, I'm lucky someone as wonderful as Billy wants me at all.
Look, I didn't mean that the way it sounded.
No, Jake, you did me a favor.
I was starting to feel something for you, but since you're not interested, it would have been a waste of my time, and I might have overlooked someone who really does have feelings for me.
We're killing someone in less than an hour and you can't get enough ketchup on your fries? All right.
If my healthy appetite bothers you so much, I'll stop.
We need to get a move on anyway.
On second thought, take your time.
Another burger.
Order dessert.
I'm gonna run to the rest room, and then we're gonna take off.
Keep an eye on my purse.
[phone rings.]
Richard Hart.
I just wanted to make sure we were still on for tonight.
[Richard.]
My place, 8:00.
I've been thinking about it all day.
Me, too.
I can't wait to see your face.
I'm sorry.
We're short staffed.
You're gonna have to hold.
Hey, 402 needs a morphine increase.
Fourth floor.
Hang on.
Matt, I'm really busy right now.
She's in a lot of pain.
Then you get the patient medication.
Thanks.
Hey, Greg.
Hey, I've been trying to reach you all day.
Um, I need a favor.
Sure.
What's up? Um, you know the stuff you gave me last night? I could, uh-- I could use some more.
I told you those little white pills would come in handy.
Yeah, they-- they really did.
The problem is, is that I've got a hematology exam tomorrow and unless I pull an all-nighter I'm sorry, but I'm tapped out.
Better make another connection.
Good thing you're in a hospital.
All right.
Put your gloves on.
Jane, I don't know if I can go through with this.
I mean, what if we get caught? What if something goes wrong? It won't.
All you have to do is get behind the wheel and drive when I say drive.
But what if a cop pulls us over? Or, you know, I-- like, I saw neighborhood watch signs all over the place.
We're never gonna get away with this.
Just get a hold of yourself, will ya? All right.
I'm sorry.
Okay okay.
Good.
Now, wish me luck.
Good luck.
[sighing.]
Oh, great.
Here we go.
Jane.
You're early.
Well, should we get inside? I'd rather die first.
Or, better yet, I'd rather you die.
What are you up to? Jane, don't do anything stupid, okay? Get down on your knees.
Um, why are you doing this? What the hell do you want from me? What do I want? I want you to admit you're a rapist.
I want to see the fear in your eyes.
I want you to beg for my mercy.
I'm not begging for anything, bitch.
I'm waiting.
Beg.
You're gonna regret this.
Say it.
You either say it to me, or you say it to God.
Either way you're dead.
Okay, look.
Don't shoot.
Say it! Don't shoot, okay? Yes, I raped you.
Okay? I swear to God I'll never do it again.
Do you forgive me? Jane, please don't kill me.
Now, give me the gun.
Jane-- Move again and I'll shoot.
All right.
Okay.
[clicking.]
No bullets.
[screams.]
Aaaah! Sydney! Now you're gonna put out, baby.
Now you're gonna put out! Are you okay? What the hell did you do with the bullets, Sydney? I'm sorry.
I took them out.
I just didn't want you committing murder.
What were you thinking? Sydney, he's a rapist! He was gonna rape me again! I'm sorry.
I just wasn't thinking, all right? But I stopped him.
Yeah you did.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
He's dead.
Oh, my God.
I killed him? Oh, my God.
Should I take his wallet? No.
No one's ever gonna believe this was a mugging.
Why not? Of course they will.
I mean, why wouldn't they? Not when Richard got hit over the head with a shovel.
Well, okay, so we'll make it look like a carjacking.
Like, somebody followed him home and they wanted his car.
Sydney, that's not gonna work.
That's not gonna work-- it's worse.
Why not? Do you have any bright ideas? I don't know! What are we gonna do, Jane? I mean, this was your idea.
I don't know! Let's just get rid of the body.
And do what with it? Go get the car.
And then what? We'll bury him.
Someplace no one will ever find him.
Go.
God.
Let's go.
What's going on? I thought visiting hours were over.
Your attorney wants to see you.
Amanda, what are you doing here? Has something happened? Not yet.
Andy has the license.
I have the rings.
And this is Mr.
Williams.
He's the Justice of the Peace.
No.
Absolutely not! I am not going through some quickie ceremony here just because it happens to be legally expeditious.
Too bad-- I want to marry you and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.
Andy, will you talk some sense into her? As your attorney, I happen to agree.
It's in your best interest.
Sign the license, Peter.
Are you sure this is really what you want? We're ready.
Do you, Peter Burns, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife? He does.
I do.
Do you, Amanda Woodward, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? I do.
You may exchange the rings.
By the power vested in me by the State of California, I pronounce you husband and wife.
Dr.
Burns, you may kiss your bride.
I do love you.
Time's up.
I'll be thinking about you tonight.
[knocking on door.]
Hi.
You forget your paycheck.
You left work on a Friday night to hand-deliver this to me? Why? Would you consider another apology? Friends, okay? Yeah.
Friends.
Listen, uh, friend since you're here, would you do me a big favor? I'm having trouble with this zipper.
Isn't Billy going to be here any minute? No, I'm meeting him on top of some office building.
God only knows what he has planned, but I'm gonna be late unless you zip me up.
Your hands are cold.
Sorry.
Thanks.
It's my pleasure.
It's not just me, is it? What do you mean? You feel this, don't you? It doesn't matter what I feel.
Billy's waiting for you.
Are you waiting for Jane? No.
Not anymore.
We shouldn't do this.
Yeah.
You're right.
[violin music.]
More champagne, please.
Very good.
By the way, sir, it's quite unusual for the entire rooftop to be rented for the evening.
May I ask what the occasion is? Uhit's a long overdue reunion.
Mmm.
Hey.
I gotta go.
Oh, let me give you a ride to the airport.
I'm not big on public good-byes.
Is it too late to tell you I don't want you to go? You have no idea how much strength it's taking me to walk out that door.
Don't make it any harder than it is, please.
You take care of yourself.
[sighing.]
You, too.
Bye.
Bye.
[Sydney.]
Look, I don't expect you to sing camp songs, but you could say something.
It's your party.
All right, at least pick a spot.
I'm not gonna drive around all night.
Bury him anywhere.
Fine.
Here.
Come on.
Let's get this over with.
Jane? Don't freak out on me.
I can't do this.
Oh! Great.
Now you get cold feet.
I've already done the hard part.
The least you can do is help me bury the stiff.
Come on, Jane.
You murdered him.
Correction-- we murdered him.
All right.
I'll grab his head.
You can grab his feet.
Any time, Jane.
All right.
All right.
Oh! On 3.
Ready? All right.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, oh! [grunting.]
Over there.
Okay.
All right.
Push.
Okay.
Pull.
Unhh! Okay.
Make yourself useful, Jane.
Grab a shovel.
[ringing.]
Hi, this is Jo.
I can't get to the phone now, so leave a message and I will get back to you.
[beeping.]
[man.]
Final boarding call for Flight 1001 to New York.
All passengers report to Gate 22.
O'Malley! What are you doing here? I don't know, but your leaving, it just doesn't feel right.
Come with me.
No.
You stay.
Sir, you really have to get on board.
All right, just wait a minute.
Listen, we had something.
Let's not throw it away.
Come with me, Jo, please.
How long is the layover in New York? It's two hours, but, sir, you have to leave now.
All right, listen to me-- Go home, get your passport, come back here and catch the next flight to New York.
I'll wait for you.
We'll fly on from there together.
Sir? Just hang on! You can't ask me to do this-- I need time to think.
There is no time.
I love you.
I love you, too.
[beeping.]
Kimberly? Hmm? Is the surgery over? Yeah.
It went well.
You're short a spleen, but Dr.
Anderson thinks you're gonna do fine, and I concur.
How's Peter? Oh, don't worry about him.
Just worry about yourself right now.
No.
No, just tell him I'll testify.
As soon as I'm well, I'll testify.
Well, I'm sure he'll be glad to hear that.
Now close those eyes and get some rest, okay? I'll be right here.
[flatlining.]
Kimberly! No! Hey! Code blue! Get a crash cart in here.
Don't you die on me, Kimberly.
Enjoy your honeymoon, lover.
Heh heh heh.
[knock on door.]
Who is it? Detective Wylie.
Just need a moment of your time.
I already told you I'm not testifying against Peter.
We got married tonight.
I'm his wife.
I see.
Well, there's been a development in your husband's case.
So, are you letting Peter out of jail? Well, that's kind of tough, because Peter Burns isn't in jail.
I don't understand.
I just left him there.
Can you identify this man? No.
I've never seen him before.
That's odd, because this is the real Dr.
Peter Burns.
I don't know who you're married to.
Jane, whatever I have done to you in the past, I've totally made up for tonight.
I have blisters on every one of my fingers, my back is killing me, my shoes are totally ruined.
[twig snaps.]
What was that? Let's get outta here.
He's not buried deep enough.
Jane, I don't know about you, but I am done for the night.
All right.
Let's go.
He must be so cold.
Trust me, Jane.
He doesn't care.
Get in the car.
It's okay, Jane.
The nightmare's over.
They say they're friends of yours.
Those people are not my friends.
Nurse Benson, suture Mr.
Peters up and take him back to his ward.
Now.
Um, I don't have time to explain, but those people are extremely dangerous.
They're escaped mental patients.
Now, we don't want to set them off, so follow my lead.
Dr.
Kimberly Shaw.
If you get her out here, she'll explain everything.
It's all right.
Come on, all right now? Will you get your hands off me? All right, see? What are you two doing here? We're looking for you, babe.
And Peter.
Where is he? I have no idea.
Did you lose him? Oh, cut the crap, Kimberly.
I know you've got him locked up in this nut house.
This is not a nut house.
It's a private hospital.
And since I'm in charge, I'm asking you to please go.
Escort them out.
Kimberly-- Kimberly, wait.
Take it easy.
Now, look, sweetie, we're just a little confused here, you see? You told me you were going to Hawaii, and then you ended up here, and, coincidentally, Peter disappeared at the same time.
Look, we're divorcing, Michael.
I shouldn't have to explain any of this to you.
But as it happens, I am moonlighting here while the resident doctor is on vacation.
Now, please leave.
W-w-wait.
I am not leaving until I see Peter.
Now, cooperate with us or I'll go straight to the medical board and have them investigate this place.
All right.
Peter is here.
He came here to avoid prosecution, and as his friend, I've agreed to help him.
Are you saying he skipped out for good? He's an innocent man.
Why would he do that? Ask him yourself.
I'll take you to him.
Follow me.
Now we're getting somewhere.
Don't be shocked by what you're about to see.
Spare the dramatics and open the damn door.
Michael! Bye-bye, suckers! [groaning.]
Amanda, run for it! Lock down! Search every room, every closet until you find them! Move it! Let your soul Be your valley Let your soul guide you And guide you well When you're down And they're counting When your secrets Are found out When your troubles Take to mounting When the map you had Leads you to doubt When there's no more Information And the clock has turned Nowhere that you know where He's a monster and he always will be.
No one can stop him.
Not God, not Jake, not the police.
Only us.
Jane? Not to upset you, but I think you need professional help.
I'm not crazy, Sydney.
In fact, I have never had more clarity.
Richard has to die.
Thou shalt not kill.
The Bible? Ring a bell? It's a sin, Jane.
Not to mention, totally illegal.
An eye for an eye, that's in the Bible too.
To kill Richard may be legally wrong, but it's morally right.
No, Jane, it's not.
That's why when you kill someone in cold blood, you get the death penalty! Are you hearing any of this, Jane? The death penalty! Shh! It only happens if you're caught.
Besides, it's not like you have a choice.
Jane you're my sister.
I'm worried about your afterlife.
Don't you believe in hell? Fire and brimstone? Retribution? No, but I believe in the devil.
And you're gonna help me kill him.
Would you please move your foot? I can't.
It's asleep.
I've got no feeling in it.
Ow! I guess that feeling came back.
I don't believe this.
We're stuck in a heating duct because Kimberly, in her dementia, convinced these people that we belong in a padded cell.
Yeah, I know.
God only knows what's happening to Peter.
We've gotta get out of here.
I know.
Well, if you know so much, why don't you do something? Come up with an idea? You know, there are probably video cameras everywhere.
Kimberly sounded the alarm, so the place is locked up tight, and for all we know, the guards are armed.
Then we just need to find a phone, call the authorities, and they'll bust us out.
What? You have a better idea? Actually, no.
But I don't want anybody to get hurt.
Not Kimberly, not Peter, and not us.
Well, I'm sure we all appreciate the sentiment, but let's get going.
Shh.
What's going on? [gasps loudly.]
Yuck! I need to get that exterminator back out here again.
Are you feeling any better at all? I'm so hot, my eyes are burning.
Do you want me to get you a nurse? I'm missing school.
I've got a test.
Ooh, he's really out of it.
Dominick said he had an allergic reaction to the first antibiotic they tried.
He's had a high fever for two days.
I'm burning up.
I feel like I'm gonna die.
Matt, don't even talk like that.
Matt? Matt?! Jo, he's just sleeping.
We should let him get some rest.
Come on.
I never allowed myself to think it before, but he could die, couldn't he? Hey.
He's a fighter.
He's gonna be fine.
He'd better be, or I'll kill him.
And it's your job to finish on schedule.
Yeah? And I'm tired of stepping around wet cement and going around the back to get in my own house.
No, it makes me the perfect target for a mugger.
Well, if you can't finish on time, I'm sure there's a contractor who can.
Thank you.
So, stranger, what can I do for you? Oh, I just came by to drop off these sketches.
I didn't think you'd be here.
My meeting got pushed.
Now I'm glad it did.
I miss you, Jane.
I miss seeing you in and out of the office, you know? Don't you miss that, too? Sure.
Well, prove it.
Kiss me.
Richard, please, not in the office.
Come on, just give me a little something.
I promise I won't bite this time.
Okay.
[whistles.]
Good girl.
Now I can get to that meeting.
Oh, and Jane? Uh, next time, on the lips.
Next time won't be on the lips, Richard.
It'll be between the eyes.
You're exaggerating, right? Yeah, I wish.
Alison hates my guts.
I don't blame her.
What, you got a little drunk.
A recovering alcoholic doesn't see it that way.
Worse, I took her to this schmoozy restaurant where everybody knew my name.
And so, everything the woman can't stand about me, I managed to rub her nose in.
Speaking of.
Boy, it's really hopping.
Glad I came in early.
So is Billy.
He has something to tell you.
Jake, enough with the match-making.
It's not right to shut out somebody who cares, Alison.
The guy just wants to talk.
Fine.
What is it? Well, I wasn't quite ready to discuss this, but since it's come up, I just wanted you to know that I'm making amends with, uh, you know, with all the people that I've burned.
Billy, you don't know the first thing about making amends.
I've happened to have learned from your experience in AA.
Give me a break.
I'm not doing this for you, okay? I'm doing this so that maybe I can feel a little bit better about myself, so give me some credit for that.
Look, this is all very admirable, but you should know this probably isn't gonna change my feelings for you.
Well, key word--probably.
I have to go punch in.
So? I think I got my foot back in the door.
Okay, I can take a hint.
You're not into this.
No.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's not you.
It's not.
I guess I'm just worried.
Do you think you could call the hospital again? Jo, I did.
Less than an hour ago.
Matt's fever broke.
He's out of the woods.
Are you sure this isn't about something else? Or someone else? What? Like who? Well, you never said you were monogamous.
I never thought I had to.
I never said you did.
Wait a second-- You can't just say something like that and then put your pants on.
I saw you and some guy down at the hospital.
He had his arms around you.
[laughing.]
That was Jake, you idiot.
He's just a friend.
Really? Is that all he's ever been? You're feeling insecure, aren't you? The great Dominick O'Malley is feeling insecure.
Well, it's about damn time.
It's not funny.
I'm not laughing.
It's just nice to see you so not in control for a change.
In fact, it kinda turns me on.
You're a very strange woman.
You know that? Maybe.
But that kinda turns you on, doesn't it? Maybe.
I'll tell you what.
You come back to bed and we'll take turns being in control.
First, we'll do it my way, which means nice and slow.
Slow, huh? Yeah.
Yeah? We have all the time in the world.
Oh.
You you okay, Peter? Y-you want to talk or play solitaire or something? No, Louie, I I'm in kind of a fog here, Louie, and I've gotta-- I've got to get out of it.
I've got to concentrate, Louie.
Just blend in.
Don't draw attention to yourself.
That's easy for you to say.
Okay, concentrate.
Hey, there's a phone over there.
Amanda.
Her? You want her? Amanda.
Okay, okay, I'll go get her.
Come with me, lady.
Hey, hey! Hey, get your mitts off her.
No, no! He told me to! Shh.
Be quiet.
Peter wants you.
Right there.
Oh, my God.
It's him.
See? Shh.
Just be quiet.
Amanda, is it you? Is it really you? I'm gonna get you out of here.
Can you walk? I don't think so.
Come on, we've got to move it.
Hey, no, wait.
What are you doing? No! No, that's against the rules! That's against the rules! That's against the rules! Alert Dr.
Shaw.
Stop! Stop right there! End of the line, psychos.
A psychiatric team from the state mental hospital in Arizona is on its way.
Now, they have asked us to keep their patients locked up until they arrive.
Are you sure we've got the right people? I checked their IDs.
One of them's a doctor.
When were you born, Dave-- yesterday? Anyone with 50 bucks can get a fake license.
No, these are escaped mental patients.
The blond doesn't look crazy to me.
Well, despite their appearances, these people are extremely dangerous, and we need to keep them isolated.
Now, come here.
Only the three of us can know where they are.
Understood? All right, then.
Back to work.
Doctor, I can't locate Mr.
Peters.
Did you have him moved? Yes, away from you, and you should be grateful.
If anyone knew that you had consorted with a patient well, do I have to draw you a picture? What happened to that man and woman? Where are they? Their car is parked out front.
Well, maybe they had a dead battery.
As far as I know, they've left-- In the meantime, we have plenty of other patients who need your attention.
If I were you, I would worry about them, hmm? This is ridiculous-- Kimberly locking us in a boiler room.
God, it's hot in here.
I can't believe you did all this for me.
All what, Peter? We're locked in a boiler room.
The rescue was a bust.
Yeah, but at least I have company now.
You look great.
For having spent the night with rats, you mean.
Want to tell me what happened? How you ended up here? Kimberly and I were on the way to the police station so she could corroborate my alibi.
Out of nowhere, she stabs me with a hypodermic and here I am at Willowbridge, and everybody's calling me Mr.
Peters.
The woman should be locked up for life.
Well, there's no way out.
And for your information, Kimberly's not well.
She needs help.
She's way past needing help, Michael.
Amanda's right.
She's slipped over the edge.
She's gone.
You know, she was trying to lobotomize me.
I was on an operating table when the two of you showed up.
Someone should have her lobotomized.
Look, I don't care what either one of you say.
I love Kimberly and I'm not giving up on her.
Kimberly doesn't exist anymore, Michael.
She's gone.
And whoever's taken over wants to keep it that way, which means making sure that we don't exist.
Hi! Hi.
I've left five messages on your answering machine.
What can I say? I've been busy.
Right-- so busy you don't have time for your best friend? Or am I wrong about that? Right now, my best friend is me.
Oh, come on, Jane.
You can't stop people from caring.
Look, you've been through an incredible trauma, and Jake and I want to be there for you.
Well, maybe you two need to get a life or at least find someone else to obsess on.
Hell, maybe you and Jake should date each other.
That way, you'd both be off my back.
This is just misdirected anger, Jane.
I know you still have feelings for him.
Right now, I feel nothing for Jake, and frankly, I don't feel a hell of a lot for you, either.
Well, I see you got your appetite back.
Yeah, I feel so much better.
Even this hospital food tastes good.
I'm gonna go for seconds.
No, wait.
Don't push it, Matt.
I thought we were going to lose you.
What, with a doctor as good as Dominick attending? He's the best.
Yeah, so he keeps telling me.
Am I sensing some ambivalence here? No, I just-- You know, the man can't be perfect, and I just have a feeling that he's hiding something.
Look, Dominick is not like the guys that you've been dating lately, if that's what you're worried about.
Oh, well, you must be feeling better.
I think I was just insulted.
No, look, just-- just, Jo, you deserve someone who's great.
And you finally found him.
So I should stop worrying and count my blessings, right? Right.
Hello? Hi.
Good morning.
Hi, is your boss here yet? Yeah, she is.
She's back there on the phone.
She'll be out in a minute.
So, I hope you don't mind I called you, Jane.
I mean, you are a serious buyer, right? Are you kidding? This place fits in with my plans perfectly.
Great.
Here she is.
Margo, this is Jane Mancini.
No introduction necessary.
I'm a big fan of your designs.
What brings you to my little boutique? Well, Samantha told me that you're selling your business.
I'm here to discuss buying it.
Well, that's really quite flattering, but you should know that someone has already offered me a very substantial sum.
Jane, I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
What if I were to top it? Then you'd be the new owner.
Great.
Just give me the number I need to beat.
You realize it would not be legal for me to do that.
Excuse me.
Wait.
Uh, look, you just don't know how much I was counting on this.
I'm sure you were.
But we have to play by the rules, Jane.
Tell you what-- Why don't you leave your offer with Samantha? Maybe you'll be lucky.
What did you want to see me about? Dr.
Shaw, Zig and I were talking.
Shouldn't those escapees be in cells? Yeah.
We never used the boiler room for anything like this before.
Well, of course you haven't.
How often have you had murderers on the loose? Murderers? Look, I didn't want to panic the staff, but those people killed several workers just like you in a hostage situation in Arizona.
Seems I would have heard about it on the news.
Dave, it was so grisly, the hospital had to cover it up.
What those people did to those workers would make you sick.
Now, we're not gonna let that happen here, are we? No, ma'am.
Don't they still need to eat? No.
Because I have scheduled them for surgery.
I thought the Arizona people were picking them up.
Yes, they are, but they have asked me to perform lobotomies on them first.
You don't make it a habit of questioning Dr.
Tucker.
Sorry to have bothered you, Dr.
Shaw.
Big mouth.
Man, will you two please stop pacing? You're making me dizzy.
How long can she keep us locked up here? You're her husband.
What do you think? You want to know what I think? I think this is all your fault.
Me? Yeah.
I was kidnapped, I was drugged.
I was given shock treatment.
I'm the victim here.
No, Kimberly confided in you.
She told you she was sick, and all you were interested in was your damn alibi, so she flipped out.
You brought it on.
That is such garbage.
Every day that you have been in her life, you have driven her closer to the brink of insanity.
That and your indiscretion with little Miss Tarzana there certainly loosened a few bolts.
Hey, hey, what is this? Blame Michael day? I'm not the reason we're here.
I wanted to call the cops, but blondie over here didn't want you to get arrested! What? Yeah, that's right.
That's why we're here, locked in a boiler room! By your wigged-out wife.
Hey, come on, come on! Let's not turn on each other.
Now, we've got to keep our heads, figure a way to get out of here.
That's assuming there is a way out.
There is, there is.
Man, I've just got to talk to Kimberly.
If I can, I can get her to calm down and think straight.
Oh, God.
You all right? I can't breathe.
I need air.
You know what? I saw a broken window up there earlier.
Well, let's go up top.
Maybe we can get some fresh air.
You all right? Dizzy.
Okay.
Here you are, ladies.
Thank you.
Can I get some cream? Sure.
If Margo knew that I was meeting you here, she would get the wrong idea.
Samantha, whatever happens with the sale of the boutique, I want us to be friends.
As a matter of fact, I was wondering how you'd feel about staying on as assistant manager.
That'd be great, if I were staying in L.
A.
You're moving? Why? Mmm, you know, your basic sob story.
I broke up with my boyfriend.
Now he wants me to move out.
I mean, even if you could match my salary, I couldn't afford an apartment on my own.
Well, before you move, don't you think you should at least consider finding a roommate? Ever seen Single White Female? Actually, I could use a roommate.
And I could guarantee you a raise.
Jane.
I-- I-- I don't know.
Look, I'm not doing this because I want something from you.
Although, none of this would really matter if I don't beat the other offer.
You're not asking me to tell you what the other offer is, are you? I wouldn't mind if you did.
I don't think that's very ethical, Jane.
Look, you want to talk ethics? If I win, Margo gets more money, you come work for me, and the other party finds a property down the street.
So who really loses? Just write the number down.
[knock on door.]
Welcome to my humble home.
Hi.
Hi.
I'll get us some wine.
Hey, grab the door, will you? Pretty amazing we've been seeing each other for a month, and this is the first time I'm at your place.
I was beginning to think you had a girlfriend or a wife stashed somewhere.
Well, not yet, anyway.
A toast--to us.
Mmm.
Jo, I think we should get married.
[chokes.]
[coughs.]
I'm glad I didn't ask you over dinner.
Why are you asking me at all? We barely know each other.
Four weeks, two days.
Don't--don't do that.
Don't pull that Mr.
Romantic crap on me.
You know, you're not making this very easy.
Why the hell should I? Whatever happened to slowing down? I can't.
I love you.
And you love me don't you? I don't know what I feel.
I don't know, and I don't even know if I would trust you enough to tell you if I did know.
I think I'm leaving.
Come here.
Now, you tell me you don't trust that.
[sighs.]
I want more than chemistry.
[door closes.]
Jake, we've got to talk about my sister.
I don't want to talk about Jane, and I especially don't want to talk about Jane with you.
Jake, listen-- Jane is acting really weird.
This whole rape thing is totally getting to her.
Look, Jane made her choices-- she's chosen to handle things the way she's handling them.
No, that is my point.
Her choices are funky, and they're really freaking me out.
She needs guidance from someone who's morally grounded.
Someone she loves.
Well, that's not me.
Jane prefers the company of a rapist these days.
And don't you think that's a little peculiar? Jake, you've got to talk to her.
Stop her from doing anything rash.
Rash? Like what? Like whatever.
Can't you at least just go see her? She's on her own.
Great.
So, that just leaves me then, huh? Is everything all right? Fine.
What do you need? Actually, I was wondering if you'd like to catch a movie tonight.
You know, I think that lines get a little fuzzy with me being your employer, so why don't we keep socializing to a minimum? You know, Jake, one of the things I've always loved about you is how good a friend you are, and I've seen you prove it again and again with Billy, so why can't I have a piece of that? Aren't we friends, too? You have a whole building full of people that can go to the movies with you, and frankly, to be honest with you, I don't need the complication.
Oh.
I didn't realize friendship was a complication.
But at least I know where I stand.
Billy is a friend, and I'm just an employee.
That's it.
Jane, I'm not really in the mood for shopping.
Why are we here? Because by this time next week, I'll own this place.
Well, you're just full of plans, aren't you? Well, at least this one's legal.
It is legal, isn't it? Well, Jane, I don't know how you did it, but you inched out the competition.
I did? Oh, that's great.
Congratulations.
Thank you, both of you.
[clears throat.]
Oh, sorry.
This is my sister, Sydney.
Sydney, this is Margo and Samantha.
Hi.
Bonjour.
Pleased, I'm sure.
So, Jane, I guess this means you'll be dropping everything else and focusing on something new and healthy, right? Well, I still have a few odds and ends to take care of.
I hate bringing up money, but how do you want to handle the down payment? Oh, well, I can pay you now-- that is, if you take cash.
Well, you must have been very confident about this deal.
I had a good feeling about it.
So, when can I take possession? Let's discuss the details in my office, shall we? Your sister is really amazing.
When she sets her mind to something, nothing can stop her.
Tell me about it.
The point is, you need to take it easy.
Look, I've got to get back to class.
I've got exams this week.
What are you doing out of bed? You're not discharging him, are you? Unfortunately, the patient is exercising his free will.
Matt, this is really stupid of you.
Look, I am fully recovered, and I'll continue to take my antibiotics and get plenty of rest.
I promise.
Has anybody ever told you guys you'd make a nice couple? I'll see you later.
Thanks.
Aren't you gonna stop him? Aren't you gonna give me an answer? I did propose last night.
It's really very simple.
Just a yes or a no.
O'Malley, don't make me do this.
Indulge me.
All right.
No.
All right.
If that's your answer, I accept it.
Wait-- That doesn't mean I don't want to see you.
I mean, I really enjoy you.
It's just too much.
It's too fast.
For you, maybe.
Not for me.
See you tomorrow, Jake.
Well, I guess it's too nice a night for people to stay inside.
I guess so.
Alison, I didn't mean to imply that we weren't friends.
I like your company and I respect your opinions.
I think you're great, okay? You sure have a weird way of showing it.
What do I have to do to make it up to you? [music plays.]
Dance with me.
Alison, I've got a business to run.
You don't have any customers.
Come on-- It won't be complicated, and you're not breaking any labor laws.
After all the words were spoken last night Do you remember this song? Yeah.
I had the album.
[laughing.]
I sit here on the porch step Wonderin' if we'll ever get it right I'm not gonna do this.
This is silly.
No, it's not! It's fun! It's something that's been missing from your life lately.
You know what's been missing from your life? Billy.
You really oughta give him another chance.
I'm not interested in Billy anymore.
All right, enough dancing, okay? Hey, where is everybody? What's going on here? Slow night.
In fact, I was just about to send Alison home.
Want me to walk you? No.
No, thank you.
I think I'm gonna stick around.
It might get busy again.
Thanks.
For what? For trying to sell Alison on me.
Yeah.
Anything for a friend.
Looks like you're fading.
Not a good sign when the exam's tomorrow.
I know-- I've still got three hours of reading left and a lab at 8 a.
m.
, and, you know, the coffee machine is broken.
Do what I do.
Which is? Amphetamines? I don't think so.
Don't worry, it's not street.
It's a prescription.
Thanks for the offer.
It's-- You know, it's just not my thing.
You're gonna change your mind around midnight tonight.
That's a student's best friend.
So now you're getting a roommate? Uh-huh.
Samantha, from the store.
Hmm.
As if you weren't already making one too many life changes.
[knocking on door.]
Uh, do you mind getting that? I need to finish getting dressed.
Get the door, Syd.
Kill Richard, Syd.
Whatever you say, Jane.
Good morning.
Jane around? Um, yeah.
She's getting dressed.
You mind if I have some coffee while I wait? Sure.
Go right ahead, I guess.
So, how are you doing, Sydney? Me? Um, okay.
Got a lot on my mind.
You know, you, um you're looking a little pale.
I think you've been working too much, I bet.
I think you need a vacation.
I don't have any time.
I'd make the time if I were you.
I'd take that trip sooner rather than later.
[clears throat.]
Good morning.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
Um, Richard, Do you mind waiting in the car? Sydney and I have some family business to discuss.
Yeah, no problem.
Nice talking to you, Syd.
Um, I hope that we can get to know each other better, especially since your sister and I are close again.
Hmm.
Yeah.
I'll see you soon.
Sydney, what the hell do you think you were doing? Just making conversation.
You were trying to get Richard to leave town.
Why are you having such a hard time with this? Because I am the only one in the room with a conscience.
I mean, think about it, Jane.
Do you want to live in a world where a person like me has more morals than a person like you? As long as Richard's not in it, I don't give a damn what kind of world I live in.
Oh.
Excuse me.
Jo.
The door was open.
What are you doing here? Well, I hadn't heard from you, so I thought I'd just come by and see what was going on.
Uh-huh.
Well, as you can see, I'm moving.
Yeah, I kind of figured that out.
To where? Bosnia.
No, really.
To where? There's a team of doctors going over.
It's a year-long commitment.
I'll be working with orphans mostly.
Excuse me.
Wait a second.
I say no to you, and you decide to move off to some war-torn country? It's been in the works for months.
Months? How dare you make me fall in love with you and then do something like this.
Oh, so you do love me, huh? That's beside the point.
No, it isn't! If you love me, why don't you marry me? What's holding you back? How about my life, for one? My career, my friends? Not to mention that you never told me about this master plan of yours for us.
I just thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me as a doctor, for you as a photographer, but, you know, what's the point in even talkt it now? Because you said no.
Now I'm moving on.
And maybe you should, too.
Go to hell.
That's one description of it.
I'm sorry.
Foreverything.
Me, too.
This is a stupid way to die.
I'm sorry, too.
[door opening.]
I'm not sure why I came.
You gotta get us out of here.
Dr.
Shaw says your friends are escaped mental patients.
She's lying.
She's suffering from multiple personality disorder.
I'm Dr.
Shaw's husband, and unfortunately, what he's saying is true.
You gotta believe us.
We're not crazy.
She's the one who's crazy.
I'm beginning to think you're right.
I heard her talking.
She's planning on having you all lobotomized.
Oh, my God.
She wouldn't do that-- not to me.
If you know that Dr.
Shaw's unbalanced, then it's your duty to help us.
Open the door.
Please.
So, not only did you disobey me, but you have put this entire facility at risk, haven't you, nurse? I was just checking on them.
[Michael.]
Kimberly Listen to me.
I want you to let Peter and Amanda go.
You step back.
There.
Now, I love you.
Do you hear that? I love you.
Call me Betsy.
No.
You're Kimberly.
And this other witch, whoever the hell she is, you've got to fight her.
Now, somewhere inside you is a woman I love, and a woman who loves me.
Don't touch me.
Our love is worth fighting for, Kimberly.
You're a liar, a liar.
You're wonderful.
You're wonderful.
You're everything that this monster that's taken you over is not.
You're an adulterer.
You don't love her.
You don't love her.
Nobody loves her.
No, no.
Hey.
Listen to me.
Betsy's the liar.
You hear me? Betsy's the liar! She doesn't want you to be loved, but I love you.
I love you, and nothing's ever gonna change that.
Now, come on, Kimberly.
Come on, come back.
Come on, come back! No, no! Come on! Come on! No, I hate you! I hate you! Oh, God.
Oh Oh Oh Come on.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I need help.
Please help me.
It's okay.
It's okay, I'm here.
I don't know what kind of weird medicine this is, but let go of the doctor and step back! You don't understand.
Yeah, I do! You're boinking Peters, and this other guy's hypnotizing Dr.
Shaw! No.
No, he's not.
I'm fine.
Just let them go, please? Let them all go, okay? What? Dave, it's been a misunderstanding.
Please escort my friends to the front gate.
Follow me.
[Peter.]
Are you coming? No.
I'm not leaving without Kimberly.
Wait a minute! Nobody's going anywhere! Go ahead! Stop 'em! [alarm blaring.]
I told you they could go! Get your mitts off her! Wait! I'll show you the way out! Hurry! Hey! Where do you think you're going! That's for all those times you made me miss dinner.
Here.
You'll need this to get out the gate.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'll call the police! What about Michael and Kimberly? They'll be okay.
The cops will be here any minute, which means you can't be.
Hurry up! Here he comes! You're all crazy.
You're not gonna pin all this on me! Don't you hurt him! Aaaahhhh! Kimberly! Kimberly! Her vitals are stable.
Pulse 86.
Pressure is She's been in and out of consciousness since we got her on a chopper.
I'll order a CAT scan, make sure there's no neurological damage.
How far did Kimberly fall? Look, you'd better get her a cross table lateral c-spine x-ray, too.
Thank God her fall was broken by that orderly.
We'll take it from here, Michael.
Thanks.
Dr.
Mancini, I need to ask you some questions about your partner.
Do you know where he is? Look, my wife's on a gurney in there.
I don't know whether she's gonna live or die, so right now, I don't give a damn about Peter Burns.
I see you found something to wear.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, tell Matt I owe him one.
Peter, we need a plan.
You can't stay here forever.
I think you should leave the country.
I have an alibi.
Well, Michael called, and your alibi is in critical condition.
Apparently, Kimberly took a nose-dive in that boiler room.
Where is she? Wilshire Memorial.
But you can't go there-- It's crawling with cops.
I, um I could drive you to Mexico.
Mexico?! I'm not leaving everything behind, including you, to open up a practice somewhere south of the border.
Well, it sure beats the alternative.
No.
The real Kimberly is back.
Now, we saw her.
I know she remembers that dinner, and if she doesn't, I can make her remember.
I want you to drive me to the hospital.
Please.
All right, I'll take you tonight, after it's dark.
Okay.
Listen, I want to I want to thank you for, uh Believing in you? Yeah, and uh Risking my life? Yeah.
And Saving yours? That, too.
Well, it's taken me a long time to realize this, but I want you in my life.
Sowhatever I have to do.
Listen, uh have you come across any loose checks lately? The bookkeeper says nine are missing out of the back of the checkbook.
You know I don't get involved in the numbers side of the business.
I don't even have access to the checks.
Well, you did last week when you were in my office.
That's where they're kept, Jane.
You know what I think? I think that you're just using this as an excuse to be in my office.
I see the way you've looked at me lately.
You want me again, don't you? You know I do.
Well, if you're really nice, you just might get me.
Jane, I want to talk to you.
Look, Jake, I thought I made myself clear.
It's over between us.
Fine.
But you can't be interested in this guy.
Tell me that much.
Yeah, tell him, Jane.
My every waking thought is of Richard.
I am completely focused on him.
Satisfied? I don't know why you're doing this, but's it's sick! Just go, Jake.
He sure left with his tail between his legs.
Did he? I'd better get back to work.
It's about time you woke up.
How are you feeling? Michael, I'm so sorry.
Don't talk.
Just listen.
I love you, and What do you have, a death wish? There are cops all over the hospital.
Yeah, I know.
I saw them.
How is she? She's barely conscious.
If you would have called, I would have told you that.
He just wants to ask her Look, she can't play You're gonna have to wait a few days.
I haven't got a few days.
Kimberly? Can you hear me? It's Peter.
Peter, I'm so sorry.
I need you to concentrate.
We had dinner last week, out at the airport.
You were having some problems, and we were gonna take you and check you into the hospital.
Do you remember? I can't think.
I can't think, Peter.
It was at the airport.
It was last week, Kimberly.
Think.
I need you to think.
Look, that's enough.
Peter! That's enough.
When she gets well, then you get help.
Understood? Let's go.
Come on.
That's him right there.
Sorry, doctor, but you are wanted for murder.
Knew we'd catch you sooner or later, Burns.
Cuff him.
I'll get you a lawyer.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
Guess I should have listened to you.
[knocking on door.]
It's getting packed out here.
Could use some help.
Yeah.
Well, I could use a little privacy.
Jake, you've been holed up in here for three hours with a bottle of tequila.
Is there something you want to talk about? Let me guess.
This is where you stick your nose in my business and get all empathetic, right? Excuse me, Jake, but we are friends.
I'm allowed to ask why you're hurting.
Friends, right? Then why have you been throwing yourself at me? If you want to get tanked and imagine things, that's fine.
But I don't want to participate in it.
Oh, yeah, then why'd you come in here? You want me to do you right here on the desk? Jake.
I don't know, I keep trying to be a nice guy and it seems all you women want is someone to treat you like trash.
This is not about me.
Uh-huh.
It's all about you.
You've got a good guy in Billy.
He loves you and he wants to treat you right, but you've got to come sniffing around me, don't you? I am gonna forget this conversation ever happened.
No, I don't want you to forget.
I'm not interested in you.
You got that? I'm not interested.
Now get out of here.
Well, good morning.
You got a minute? What, are you stalking me now? I didn't want to take a chance at waking on you.
You know, you're workin' nights.
How considerate, but right now the last thing I need to hear is how great you are for me.
Well, I'm not saying that I'm the best thing since sliced bread.
I'm just telling you that, I'm taking a look at myself, you know, and my actions and trying to take some steps to correct them.
Well, congratulations.
You've officially grown up.
So why not give me another chance? You know, go out with me? Tomorrow we could-- you know, justgo out with me.
Tomorrow night we could start over.
All right.
It's a date.
Okay.
You won't be sorry.
This will be a new beginning for us.
Fine.
I'll see you tomorrow night.
Ching! Got a date.
Not bad, huh? Looks like things are working out with you two.
Took some doing, but I knew she'd come around eventually.
Nice.
How's Kimberly? Last I heard, she was still out of it.
I'm being arraigned in the morning.
I know.
Look at me.
Look at where I am.
I don't want you to get dragged through this.
Now, I want you to get up and walk away.
I can't.
I won't.
There's nothing you can do to save me this time.
Walk away.
I'd give you a tissue, but I'm all out.
Don't you people have anything better to do than harass law-abiding citizens? You already arrested one.
The courts might disagree with you, in light of what we found in Alycia Barnett's car.
Really? What was that? Records showing that Peter Burns, your current boyfriend, set up Bobby Parezi, your recently deceased ex-boyfriend.
Do I have to do your job for you? Alycia killed Bobby and covered her tracks to make Peter look guilty.
It's not that complicated.
Didn't Dr.
Burns confess to you that he set Parezi up? Anything Peter told me is confidential.
Not to the grand jury.
I won't be testifying in front of the grand jury.
That's where you're mistaken.
You're not his lawyer, you're not a priest, and you're not his wife.
So guess what? That makes you the People's star witness against Burns.
Keep an eye out for that subpoena and have a good night.
How can you eat at a time like this? If not now, when? Besides, we won't have to worry about our weight anymore.
Mmm.
I'm gonna miss lobster.
[sound of door opening.]
It's time.
Come on, Syd.
Let's go.
No, I won't go.
You can't make me go.
You can't make me go.
I won't go.
I didn't want to kill Richard.
Jane wanted to.
She made me do it.
She blackmailed me.
Have some dignity, for God's sake.
I don't wanna die.
I don't wanna go to hell.
Please! Somebody! Please! Shut up, Sydney, and take your gas like a man! [screams.]
Syd, wake up.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, it was horrible.
We were dead sisters walking.
Syd, it was just a dream.
Right.
A dream.
Jane, what are you doing in my apartment anyway? I was out shopping.
Richard knows about the money.
We have to act quickly.
How quickly? Tomorrow night.
Jane? Read this with me.
Pray with me.
Put your decision in the hands of a higher power.
I am.
Smith and Wesson's.
I'll pick you up at 6:00.
We'll have dinner first.
The peritoneal tap showed blood in your abdomen.
Once we get that burst spleen out, you're gonna be A-OK.
Don't sugarcoat it.
I know I could die.
You're not gonna die.
I caused so much pain to so many people.
I think about what I almost did to Peter.
And to you.
I don't deserve to live.
Honey, stop talking like that.
You're gonna be fine.
[Kimberly.]
I don't understand how you can still love me.
Well, I do.
End of story.
See you in recovery.
You wouldn't even look at me at the arraignment.
Michael called.
Kimberly's in surgery.
She has internal bleeding.
Guess it's pretty serious.
They want me to testify before the grand jury.
They want me to say that you set Bobby up and ruined his business.
Don't perjure yourself because of me.
Just tell the truth.
Peter, I talked to your lawyer.
A wife doesn't have to testify against her husband.
Marry me.
What? I said I want you to marry me.
No! I mean why? Why, because you feel sorry for me? Because you think it might help me? You have pursued me relentlessly for months, and now I want to get married and you're not interested? You still love me, don't you? More than anything.
That's why you deserve more than conjugal visits to a husband who's behind bars.
I don't want you to come back here, and if you do, I won't see you.
[knock on door.]
What? You got a little chocolate chip on your upper lip.
I didn't wake you, did I? What are you doing here? Well, I just I just wanted to tell you that I was wrong for assuming that you'd leave the life that you have here to follow me halfway around the world.
Well, thank you for stating the obvious.
And in my own defense, I want you to know that I acted out of love only.
Anything else? No.
No, that's pretty much it.
I came said what I had to say, and now, I'm going.
My plane leaves in a few hours.
So this is good-bye.
Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
O'Malley? I think that if you only have a few hours left in this country, you should spend them with me.
Two vodka tonics.
So, you're going out with Billy tonight? Yeah, and if it's all right with the boss, I'd like to leave early.
Sure.
For what it's worth, I think you're doing the right thing.
Well, as you so eloquently pointed out the other night, I'm lucky someone as wonderful as Billy wants me at all.
Look, I didn't mean that the way it sounded.
No, Jake, you did me a favor.
I was starting to feel something for you, but since you're not interested, it would have been a waste of my time, and I might have overlooked someone who really does have feelings for me.
We're killing someone in less than an hour and you can't get enough ketchup on your fries? All right.
If my healthy appetite bothers you so much, I'll stop.
We need to get a move on anyway.
On second thought, take your time.
Another burger.
Order dessert.
I'm gonna run to the rest room, and then we're gonna take off.
Keep an eye on my purse.
[phone rings.]
Richard Hart.
I just wanted to make sure we were still on for tonight.
[Richard.]
My place, 8:00.
I've been thinking about it all day.
Me, too.
I can't wait to see your face.
I'm sorry.
We're short staffed.
You're gonna have to hold.
Hey, 402 needs a morphine increase.
Fourth floor.
Hang on.
Matt, I'm really busy right now.
She's in a lot of pain.
Then you get the patient medication.
Thanks.
Hey, Greg.
Hey, I've been trying to reach you all day.
Um, I need a favor.
Sure.
What's up? Um, you know the stuff you gave me last night? I could, uh-- I could use some more.
I told you those little white pills would come in handy.
Yeah, they-- they really did.
The problem is, is that I've got a hematology exam tomorrow and unless I pull an all-nighter I'm sorry, but I'm tapped out.
Better make another connection.
Good thing you're in a hospital.
All right.
Put your gloves on.
Jane, I don't know if I can go through with this.
I mean, what if we get caught? What if something goes wrong? It won't.
All you have to do is get behind the wheel and drive when I say drive.
But what if a cop pulls us over? Or, you know, I-- like, I saw neighborhood watch signs all over the place.
We're never gonna get away with this.
Just get a hold of yourself, will ya? All right.
I'm sorry.
Okay okay.
Good.
Now, wish me luck.
Good luck.
[sighing.]
Oh, great.
Here we go.
Jane.
You're early.
Well, should we get inside? I'd rather die first.
Or, better yet, I'd rather you die.
What are you up to? Jane, don't do anything stupid, okay? Get down on your knees.
Um, why are you doing this? What the hell do you want from me? What do I want? I want you to admit you're a rapist.
I want to see the fear in your eyes.
I want you to beg for my mercy.
I'm not begging for anything, bitch.
I'm waiting.
Beg.
You're gonna regret this.
Say it.
You either say it to me, or you say it to God.
Either way you're dead.
Okay, look.
Don't shoot.
Say it! Don't shoot, okay? Yes, I raped you.
Okay? I swear to God I'll never do it again.
Do you forgive me? Jane, please don't kill me.
Now, give me the gun.
Jane-- Move again and I'll shoot.
All right.
Okay.
[clicking.]
No bullets.
[screams.]
Aaaah! Sydney! Now you're gonna put out, baby.
Now you're gonna put out! Are you okay? What the hell did you do with the bullets, Sydney? I'm sorry.
I took them out.
I just didn't want you committing murder.
What were you thinking? Sydney, he's a rapist! He was gonna rape me again! I'm sorry.
I just wasn't thinking, all right? But I stopped him.
Yeah you did.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
He's dead.
Oh, my God.
I killed him? Oh, my God.
Should I take his wallet? No.
No one's ever gonna believe this was a mugging.
Why not? Of course they will.
I mean, why wouldn't they? Not when Richard got hit over the head with a shovel.
Well, okay, so we'll make it look like a carjacking.
Like, somebody followed him home and they wanted his car.
Sydney, that's not gonna work.
That's not gonna work-- it's worse.
Why not? Do you have any bright ideas? I don't know! What are we gonna do, Jane? I mean, this was your idea.
I don't know! Let's just get rid of the body.
And do what with it? Go get the car.
And then what? We'll bury him.
Someplace no one will ever find him.
Go.
God.
Let's go.
What's going on? I thought visiting hours were over.
Your attorney wants to see you.
Amanda, what are you doing here? Has something happened? Not yet.
Andy has the license.
I have the rings.
And this is Mr.
Williams.
He's the Justice of the Peace.
No.
Absolutely not! I am not going through some quickie ceremony here just because it happens to be legally expeditious.
Too bad-- I want to marry you and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.
Andy, will you talk some sense into her? As your attorney, I happen to agree.
It's in your best interest.
Sign the license, Peter.
Are you sure this is really what you want? We're ready.
Do you, Peter Burns, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife? He does.
I do.
Do you, Amanda Woodward, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? I do.
You may exchange the rings.
By the power vested in me by the State of California, I pronounce you husband and wife.
Dr.
Burns, you may kiss your bride.
I do love you.
Time's up.
I'll be thinking about you tonight.
[knocking on door.]
Hi.
You forget your paycheck.
You left work on a Friday night to hand-deliver this to me? Why? Would you consider another apology? Friends, okay? Yeah.
Friends.
Listen, uh, friend since you're here, would you do me a big favor? I'm having trouble with this zipper.
Isn't Billy going to be here any minute? No, I'm meeting him on top of some office building.
God only knows what he has planned, but I'm gonna be late unless you zip me up.
Your hands are cold.
Sorry.
Thanks.
It's my pleasure.
It's not just me, is it? What do you mean? You feel this, don't you? It doesn't matter what I feel.
Billy's waiting for you.
Are you waiting for Jane? No.
Not anymore.
We shouldn't do this.
Yeah.
You're right.
[violin music.]
More champagne, please.
Very good.
By the way, sir, it's quite unusual for the entire rooftop to be rented for the evening.
May I ask what the occasion is? Uhit's a long overdue reunion.
Mmm.
Hey.
I gotta go.
Oh, let me give you a ride to the airport.
I'm not big on public good-byes.
Is it too late to tell you I don't want you to go? You have no idea how much strength it's taking me to walk out that door.
Don't make it any harder than it is, please.
You take care of yourself.
[sighing.]
You, too.
Bye.
Bye.
[Sydney.]
Look, I don't expect you to sing camp songs, but you could say something.
It's your party.
All right, at least pick a spot.
I'm not gonna drive around all night.
Bury him anywhere.
Fine.
Here.
Come on.
Let's get this over with.
Jane? Don't freak out on me.
I can't do this.
Oh! Great.
Now you get cold feet.
I've already done the hard part.
The least you can do is help me bury the stiff.
Come on, Jane.
You murdered him.
Correction-- we murdered him.
All right.
I'll grab his head.
You can grab his feet.
Any time, Jane.
All right.
All right.
Oh! On 3.
Ready? All right.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, oh! [grunting.]
Over there.
Okay.
All right.
Push.
Okay.
Pull.
Unhh! Okay.
Make yourself useful, Jane.
Grab a shovel.
[ringing.]
Hi, this is Jo.
I can't get to the phone now, so leave a message and I will get back to you.
[beeping.]
[man.]
Final boarding call for Flight 1001 to New York.
All passengers report to Gate 22.
O'Malley! What are you doing here? I don't know, but your leaving, it just doesn't feel right.
Come with me.
No.
You stay.
Sir, you really have to get on board.
All right, just wait a minute.
Listen, we had something.
Let's not throw it away.
Come with me, Jo, please.
How long is the layover in New York? It's two hours, but, sir, you have to leave now.
All right, listen to me-- Go home, get your passport, come back here and catch the next flight to New York.
I'll wait for you.
We'll fly on from there together.
Sir? Just hang on! You can't ask me to do this-- I need time to think.
There is no time.
I love you.
I love you, too.
[beeping.]
Kimberly? Hmm? Is the surgery over? Yeah.
It went well.
You're short a spleen, but Dr.
Anderson thinks you're gonna do fine, and I concur.
How's Peter? Oh, don't worry about him.
Just worry about yourself right now.
No.
No, just tell him I'll testify.
As soon as I'm well, I'll testify.
Well, I'm sure he'll be glad to hear that.
Now close those eyes and get some rest, okay? I'll be right here.
[flatlining.]
Kimberly! No! Hey! Code blue! Get a crash cart in here.
Don't you die on me, Kimberly.
Enjoy your honeymoon, lover.
Heh heh heh.
[knock on door.]
Who is it? Detective Wylie.
Just need a moment of your time.
I already told you I'm not testifying against Peter.
We got married tonight.
I'm his wife.
I see.
Well, there's been a development in your husband's case.
So, are you letting Peter out of jail? Well, that's kind of tough, because Peter Burns isn't in jail.
I don't understand.
I just left him there.
Can you identify this man? No.
I've never seen him before.
That's odd, because this is the real Dr.
Peter Burns.
I don't know who you're married to.
Jane, whatever I have done to you in the past, I've totally made up for tonight.
I have blisters on every one of my fingers, my back is killing me, my shoes are totally ruined.
[twig snaps.]
What was that? Let's get outta here.
He's not buried deep enough.
Jane, I don't know about you, but I am done for the night.
All right.
Let's go.
He must be so cold.
Trust me, Jane.
He doesn't care.
Get in the car.
It's okay, Jane.
The nightmare's over.
