 KAREN: HI.
WE WONDERED WHEN YOU WERE
GETTING HERE.
 COURTNEY: HI.
I HAD A HARD TIME FINDING NEIL'S
SLEEPING BAG.
 JOE: HEY, DUDE, HIGH FIVE.
 NEIL: LOW FIVE.
 COURTNEY: THANK YOU
FOR LETTING NEIL SLEEP OVER.
HE'S BEEN BEGGING ME FOR DAYS.
 KAREN: IT'LL BE FUN.
 JOE: YEAH, WE ARE GOING
TO PARTY TILL WE DROP.
 COURTNEY: WELL, JUST AS LONG
AS YOU DROP BY 9:00 AND THAT
SOMEBODY FINISHES ALL
OF HIS MATH HOMEWORK.
 NEIL: I KIND OF NEED SOME
HELP WITH THAT.
 JOE: NO PROBLEM.
DO YOU WANT TO TACKLE THAT
BEFORE OR AFTER WE PITCH
OUR TENT?
 NEIL: WHAT TENT?
 JOE: THE TENT WE'RE PITCHING
IN THE PATIO.
I FIGURED WE'D CAMP OUT.
 NEIL: ALL RIGHT!
 COURTNEY: WELL, THAT'S GREAT.
 JOE: SO DID YOU EVER CAMP OUT
BEFORE?
 NEIL: NO.
 COURTNEY: OH, YOU HAVE SUCH
A NICE VIEW FROM HERE.
 FRANK: SAY GOOD-BYE,
COURTNEY.
WE'VE GOT SOME PLANNING TO DO.
 ELLEN: HAVE YOU DONE
A FOLLOWUP ON THAT PREGNANT
WOMAN WITH THE GRAND MAL
SEIZURES?
 MATT: MRS. TUCKER?
 ELLEN: MM-HMM.
 MATT: YEAH.
I CHECKED HER INTO O.B.
SHE'S DOING FINE.
 ELLEN: GOOD.
 MATT: IN FACT, ONE
OF THE INTERNS UP THERE TOLD ME
ABOUT AN ARTICLE IN THE APRIL
ISSUE OF "NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL
OF MEDICINE."
IT DEALT WITH SITUATIONS JUST
LIKE HERS.
I READ IT DURING MY MEAL BREAK.
IT'S VERY INFORMATIVE.
 ELLEN: OH, I'D LOVE
TO HEAR IT.
DO YOU HAVE TIME FOR COFFEE?
 MATT: NO.
 ELLEN: WELL, IF YOU'RE BUSY
NOW, MAYBE LATER.
 MATT: UM -- ELLEN,
YOU'RE A COLLEAGUE,
AND WE WORKED ON A PROCEDURE
TOGETHER.
I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE
INTERESTED IN READING
THE PERTINENT LITERATURE.
THAT'S ALL.
IT'S NOT AN INVITATION TO COFFEE
OR LUNCH OR A STROLL IN THE PARK
OR TO GO LOOK AT ICE SCULPTURES.
 ELLEN: I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT
HAVING COFFEE WAS CROSSING
THE LINE.
 MATT: IT IS.
 ELLEN: MATT --
 MATT: ELLEN, THE ONLY
RELATIONSHIP WE HAVE NOW IS
PROFESSIONAL.
[CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY
NCI'S CORPORATE PARTNERS]
 COURTNEY: HEY, FRANK, WHAT --
WHAT'S GOING ON?
 FRANK: NEIL, JOE,
AND KAREN -- FAMILY BONDING.
IT KIND OF GETS YOU RIGHT HERE.
 COURTNEY: YEAH.
WELL, IT KIND OF GETS ME RIGHT
HERE.
UGH!
 FRANK: THAT'S MY COURTNEY,
EVER THE HOPELESS ROMANTIC.
 COURTNEY: DID YOU TALK
WITH YOUR LITTLE HOOKER PAL?
 FRANK: YES, I DID.
SHE SAID SHE'D HELP.
 COURTNEY: YOU ACTUALLY GOT
HER TO AGREE TO BE ARRESTED
WITH JOE?
 FRANK: HEY, I SAVED HER LIFE.
SHE OWES ME BIG TIME.
BESIDES, I OFFERED HER A WAD
OF CASH.
 COURTNEY: YOU GET A BIG GOLD
STAR.
 FRANK: YEAH, WELL, LET'S NOT
BREAK OPEN THE CHAMPAGNE JUST
YET.
WE STILL NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW
WE GET JOE INTO A HOTEL ROOM
WITH A STRANGE WOMAN.
 COURTNEY: DON'T MAKE IT
A HOTEL ROOM.
IF JOE WAS ON SOME SEEDY STREET
LIKE COURTLAND, MAYBE WE COULD
SOMEHOW GET HIM TO PICK HER UP
IN HIS CAR AND --
 FRANK: NO, NO, NO, NO.
TOO MANY VARIABLES.
WHAT IF JOE DOESN'T GO
ON THE STREET WHERE SHE'S
WAITING OR WHAT IF HE DOESN'T
SEE HER AND WHY WOULD HE PICK UP
A STRANGE WOMAN, ANYWAY?
 COURTNEY: I DIDN'T SAY I HAD
IT ALL WORKED OUT.
 FRANK: NO KIDDING.
 COURTNEY: ALL SARCASM DOES IS
STIFLE CREATIVITY.
 FRANK: I KNOW.
WE SPIKE HIS DRINK.
 COURTNEY: OH.
OH, BOY, THAT'S ORIGINAL.
 FRANK: WE'LL MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE HE GOT DRUNK.
IT WORKED WHEN RAMSEY PULLED IT
ON ME.
 COURTNEY: IT WORKED
BECAUSE YOU HAD JUST KICKED
DL-56.
EVERYBODY THOUGHT YOU JUST
SWITCHED TO A DIFFERENT DRUG.
JOE DOESN'T HAVE THAT KIND
OF PROBLEM.
BESIDES, HE'D JUST ASK
FOR A DRUG SCREEN THE NEXT DAY.
 FRANK: HMM.
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
 COURTNEY: AND WE CAN'T SEND
HIM A PHONY MESSAGE TELLING HIM
TO BE SOMEWHERE BECAUSE,
IF HE KEEPS IT, IT WILL JUST
PROVE THAT HE WAS SET UP.
 FRANK: A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS.
 COURTNEY: WOULD YOU CARE
TO ELABORATE?
 FRANK: JOE HAS A WEAKNESS
FOR RIDING TO THE RESCUE.
IF WE CAN MAKE HIM THINK HE'S
DOING A GOOD DEED, HE'LL PUT
HIMSELF INTO A COMPROMISING
SITUATION BEFORE YOU CAN SAY
GUILTY OF SOLICITATION.
 COURTNEY: HMM.
IT MIGHT WORK, YEAH.
 FRANK: IT WILL WORK.
NOW, HAVE YOU INVITED KAREN
TO MOM'S SHOWER YET?
 COURTNEY: I WAS WAITING
TO SEE IF YOU LINED UP
THE HOOKER FIRST.
 FRANK: WELL, CALL HER.
 COURTNEY: CAN YOU IMAGINE
WHAT KAREN WILL DO WHEN
SHE FINDS OUT THAT,
WHILE SHE WAS CELEBRATING MARY'S
UPCOMING NUPTIALS, JOE WAS
GETTING HIS BELLROPE RUNG?
OH!
OH, I HOPE I'M WITH HER WHEN
SHE FINDS OUT.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
 COURTNEY: I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE
THE LOOK ON THE FACE OF THAT
SNIVELING, MEALY-MOUTHED
LITTLE --
 KAREN: HELLO?
 COURTNEY: KAREN.
HI, IT'S COURTNEY.
 KAREN: WHAT'S UP?
 COURTNEY: I FORGOT TO TELL
YOU.
I'M THROWING A SHOWER FOR MARY,
AND I'M HOPING YOU CAN MAKE IT.
 KAREN: OH.
UH -- SURE.
WHEN IS IT?
 COURTNEY: TUESDAY,
AT THE SCANLON HOUSE.
 KAREN: SURE.
YEAH, I'LL BE THERE.
 COURTNEY: GREAT.
IT WOULDN'T BE THE SAME
WITHOUT YOU.
BYE.
WE'RE A GO.
 JOE: WE NEED SOME MORE
BLANKETS.
WHO WAS THAT ON THE PHONE?
 KAREN: COURTNEY.
SHE INVITED ME TO A BRIDAL
SHOWER FOR YOUR MOM ON TUESDAY.
 JOE: SOUNDS LIKE FUN.
 KAREN: YEAH.
 JOE: WHAT'S THE MATTER?
 KAREN: WELL, I WANTED TO DO
SOMETHING NICE FOR YOUR MOM,
BUT COURTNEY BEAT ME
TO THE PUNCH.
 JOE: YOU CAN'T HAVE TWO
SHOWERS?
 KAREN: YEAH, YOU CAN.
IT'S JUST STUPID, BUT --
WELL, IT SEEMS LIKE COURTNEY
AND MARY ARE GETTING CLOSER,
AND, THANKS TO ME NEARLY LOSING
YOUR MOM'S ENGAGEMENT RING,
SHE AND I ARE JUST GETTING
FURTHER AND FURTHER APART,
YOU KNOW?
 JOE: YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
YOU'RE NOT IN COMPETITION
WITH COURTNEY FOR MY MOTHER'S
GOOD WILL, KAREN.
 KAREN: AT'S GOOD
BECAUSE I'D BE LOSING.
 JOE: AND EVEN IF YOU WERE,
YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE I'M
THE PRIZE, NOT MY MOTHER.
AND I DECLARE YOU THE WINNER.
 KAN: OH.
THAT'S GOOD.
 MATT: CHRIS, DO YOU KNOW
WHERE EVE IS?
BOARDMAN MIGHT NEED HER TO SCRUB
IN ON A POSSIBLE ABDOMINAL
TRAUMA COMING OUT OF THE E.R.
 CHRIS: YEAH, I KNOW WHERE
EVE IS.
SHE'S IN EXAM THREE GETTING
READY FOR SOME TESTS.
 MATT: IS SHE FEELING WORSE?
 CHRIS: HEMOGLOBIN AT 8.2,
HEMATOCRIT AT 24.
ANEMIC, DIZZY, ABDOMINAL
CRAMPING.
LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING, MATT.
HOW BAD DO YOU THINK EVE NEEDED
TO FEEL BEFORE YOU RAN SOME
TESTS ON HER?
 MATT: I TOLD HER THAT
SHE SHOULD HAVE THEM RUN RIGHT
AWAY.
SHE WANTED TO WAIT A DAY OR TWO.
 CHRIS: YEAH.
WELL, DON'T STRAIN YOURSELF
PLAYING DOCTOR.
I'M TAKING OVER THE CASE.
 MATT: WELL, LET ME GUESS.
SHE SAID SHE WANTED TO WAIT
AND YOU COMPLETELY DISREGARDED
HER WISHES BECAUSE YOU NEVER
LISTEN TO WHAT A PATIENT WANTS.
 CHRIS: WHAT ANY PATIENT WANTS
IS TO BE TREATED BY A COMPETENT
DOCTOR.
 EVE: HEY.
KNOCK IT OFF, YOU TWO.
WHAT I WANT IS FOR THE TWO
OF YOU TO QUIT TREATING ME LIKE
I WAS THE WISHBONE OF A CHICKEN.
 MATT: LISTEN, ARE YOU OK?
 EVE: YEAH.
I WILL BE.
YOU WERE RIGHT, MATT.
I NEED THOSE TESTS DONE NOW.
 MATT: WELL, I'M GLAD YOU'RE
GOING THROUGH WITH THEM.
 CHRIS: YEAH, NO THANKS
TO YOU.
 EVE: HEY, TAKE IT EASY.
 MATT: YOU KNOW, KAREN TOLD ME
THAT YOU'VE BEEN VISITING JULIE
QUITE A BIT UP AT FERNCLIFF.
YOU KNOW, YOU BETTER WATCH
YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU COULD BE
MISTAKEN FOR ONE OF THE PATIENTS
UP THERE, END UP IN A PADDED
CELL, WHICH IS WHERE YOU BELONG.
LISTEN, I'LL CHECK IN
ON YOU LATER, OK?
 EVE: OK, THANKS.
 CHRIS: INCOMPETENT
 AND SHORT-FUSED.
 EVE: HEY --
 CHRIS: WHAT A WINNING
COMBINATION.
 EVE: GIVE HIM A BREAK.
HE AND ELLEN JUST BROKE UP.
 CHRIS: REALLY?
OH.
WELL, WHO DO I HAVE TO THANK?
 ELLEN: WHAT'S ALL THIS?
 SEBASTIAN: I WAS FEELING
PRETTY GOOD TODAY AND THOUGHT
I WOULD DO SOMETHING SPECIAL
FOR YOU FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE
FOR ME.
 ELLEN: IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
 SEBASTIAN: HEY, HEY.
TEARS WEREN'T EXACTLY WHAT I WAS
LOOKING FOR.
 ELLEN: I'M SORRY.
I'VE HAD A TERRIBLE DAY.
 SEBASTIAN: YOU WANT TO TELL
ME ABOUT IT?
 ELLEN: LUCY'S MISSING.
AND MY STOMACH'S BEEN TIED UP
IN KNOTS ALL DAY WORRYING ABOUT
HER.
 SEBASTIAN: THERE'S NO CLUE
WHERE SHE MIGHT BE?
 ELLEN: NO, AND I'M SCARED.
AND AT THE HOSPITAL, IT WAS ONE
THING AFTER ANOTHER, AND
PEOPLE WERE JUST PLAIN MEAN.
 SEBASTIAN: LUCY'S GOING
TO TURN UP.
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT.
AND FOR THOSE MEAN PEOPLE,
THERE'S NOT TOO MUCH YOU CAN DO
ABOUT THEM.
BUT RIGHT NOW, YOU'RE HERE
WITH ME, AND ALL I WANT TO DO IS
MAKE YOU SMILE.
THERE YOU GO.
JUST BECAUSE OTHER CLEANERS
ARE BLUE LIKE WINDEX...
DOESN'T MEAN THEY CAN
CLEAN GLASS LIKE WINDEX.
WINDEX WITH AMMONIA D
LEAVES A BEAUTIFUL,
STREAK-FREE SHINE...
JUST ABOUT ANYONE
CAN APPRECIATE.
IN GEORGIA,
AT THE GREYFIELD INN,
IT'S THE PECAN PRALINES
THAT MAKE THEIR BREAKFAST CEREAL
SO DELICIOUS.
IN VERMONT,
AT THE INN AT ORMSBY HILL,
MAPLE WAFFLES
SET THEIR CEREAL APART.
AND IN MONTEREY BAY,
BAKED PALMIERS
MAKE BREAKFAST UNIQUE
AT GREEN GABLES INN.
NEW COUNTRY INN SPECIALTIES.
OLD-STYLE RECIPES
FROM THREE OF OUR FAVORITE INNS.
EACH ONE A TASTE
OF A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
COUNTRY INN SPECIALTIES...
 CHRIS: HEY, MATT.
LOOK, I'M SORRY ABOUT EARLIER.
I JUST HEARD THE NEWS.
I NEVER WOULD HAVE GIVEN
YOU SUCH A HARD TIME IF I KNEW
THAT ELLEN JUST, YOU KNOW,
DUMPED YOU.
 MATT: WELL, DON'T GIVE IT
A SECOND THOUGHT.
 CHRIS: SO WHO'S THE GUY
SHE THREW YOU OVER FOR?
GOOD-LOOKING DUDE WHO'S ALWAYS
HANGING AROUND HER?
WHAT'S HIS NAME -- SEBASTIAN?
GUESS YOU DID TOO GOOD A JOB
SAVING HIS LIFE, HUH?
 MATT: WELL, THAT'S JUST
THE KIND OF WARPED THINKING I'D
EXPECT FROM YOU, CHRIS.
SEE, I DON'T LOOK AT IT THAT
WAY.
 CHRIS: WELL, PERSONALLY,
I GOT TO TELL YOU I WAS SHOCKED.
I THOUGHT YOU AND ELLEN WERE
ROCK SOLID.
BUT I GUESS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN
LOVE'S GOING TO LEAVE YOU HIGH
AND DRY, HUH?
YOU LET ME KNOW IF THERE'S
ANYTHING I CAN DO.
 MATT: I CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT
IT MEANS TO ME TO HAVE SOMEONE
LIKE YOU IN MY CORNER.
 CHRIS: GOOD DEAL.
 MATT: JACKASS.
 JOE: PERFECT SCORE.
100%.
WAY TO GO.
 NEIL: CAN I WATCH TV NOW?
 JOE: UH-UH -- AFTER DINNER.
 NEIL: THERE'S GOING TO BE
THIS REALLY COOL PROGRAM
ON ABOUT ALLIGATOR ATTACKS.
 KAREN: WON'T THAT GIVE
YOU NIGHTMARES?
 NEIL: NO, IT WON'T.
I'VE SEEN TONS OF SHARK ATTACK
PROGRAMS.
THEY'RE REALLY NEAT.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE ONE ABOUT
GREAT WHITES?
 KAREN: I THINK I MISSED THAT
ONE.
 JOE: OH, YOU KNOW,
IT'S REALLY COOL.
THIS GUY POURS FISH GUTS
AND BLOOD RIGHT INTO THE OCEAN,
AND THEN THEY LOWER THIS HUNK
OF MEAT RIGHT ABOVE THE OCEAN
LINE.
AND THIS GREAT WHITE COMES OUT
AND GRABS THE MEAT IN ONE BITE.
 KAREN: LIKE THIS?
 COURTNEY: OH, SPARE ME.
 FRANK: WHAT'S GOING ON?
 COURTNEY: KAREN'S PLAYING
MOMMY WITH MY SON.
 FRANK: WHAT DID YOU EXPECT
HER TO DO, HANDCUFF HIM
TO THE RADIATOR?
 COURTNEY: SHE ACTS LIKE
SHE JUST STEPPED OUT
OF "THE BRADY BUNCH"
OR SOMETHING.
SHE IS SUCH A PHONY.
 FRANK: NOW, NOW, PUSSYCAT.
WATCH THE CLAWS.
 COURTNEY: SHOVE IT, FRANK.
I DON'T WANT NEIL GETTING
THE IDEA THAT KAREN'S HIS SECOND
MOTHER -- EVER.
 MATT: HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING
OUT OF BED?
 EVE: I'M BORED.
I'VE BEEN STARING AT THE CEILING
COUNTING ACOUSTICAL TILES
FOR THE PAST HOUR.
 MATT: YEAH?
HOW MANY?
 EVE: OH, AROUND 1,376.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
 MATT: JUST CATCHING UP
ON SOME SURGERY REPORTS.
 EVE: OH.
YOU KNOW --
 MATT: HMM?
 EVE: YOU AND ELLEN DID
A GREAT JOB WITH THAT GRAND MAL
SEIZURE TODAY.
YOU GUYS MAKE A REALLY GOOD
TEAM.
 MATT: EVE, IF YOU'RE TRYING
TO TELL ME SOMETHING, JUST SAY
IT OUTRIGHT INSTEAD OF TAKING
THE LONG WAY AROUND.
 EVE: OK.
IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU HAVE CUT
ELLEN OFF COMPLETELY.
 MATT: I'VE CUT HER OFF?
SHE'S THE ONE THAT LEFT ME
FOR ANOTHER MAN.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO,
GET HER A GOING-AWAY PRESENT?
 EVE: NO, LISTEN.
I DON'T KNOW ALL THE FACTS, OK?
BUT ELLEN DIDN'T LEAVE YOU.
SEBASTIAN'S DYING.
 MATT: LOOK, SEBASTIAN IS NOT
JUST SOME TERMINALLY ILL PATIENT
THAT ELLEN IS TREATING, OK?
THE GUY IS OBSESSED WITH HER.
AND NOW SHE'S ASKED HIM TO MOVE
IN WITH HER.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE
OF THAT?
 EVE: YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO MAKE
OF THAT THAT SHE HAS A VERY BIG
HEART AND SHE FEELS SOME SENSE
OF OBLIGATION TO THIS GUY.
YOU KNOW HOW LOYAL ELLEN IS.
 MATT: I'M IN THIS CHAIR
BECAUSE MY FATHER TOLD
MY BROTHER TO KILL ME,
SO YOU CAN JUST IMAGINE HOW
I FELT BEING BETRAYED BY MY OWN
FAMILY.
SO THERE IS NOTHING THAT I VALUE
MORE THAN LOYALTY, BUT THAT'S
NOT WHAT I SEE HAPPENING HERE.
 EVE: DO YOU LOVE HER?
 MATT: EVE --
 EVE: IT'S A SIMPLE QUESTION.
 MATT: YES.
I LOVE HER.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M WILLING
TO THROW AWAY MY SELF-RESPECT.
 EVE: MATT, THERE'S
A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
SELF-RESPECT AND PRIDE.
TWO MONTHS FROM NOW, THE ONLY
THING THAT WILL BE LEFT
OF SEBASTIAN IS THE MEMORY.
THERE'S NO MIRACLE CURE.
THERE'S NO EXPERIMENTAL SURGERY,
NO EXCITING NEW DRUG.
NOW, I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD
DO IF I WERE IN ELLEN'S PLACE,
BUT I DO BELIEVE IF I WERE
IN YOUR PLACE AND KEVIN DECIDED
HE NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF LUCY
BECAUSE SHE WAS DYING,
I WOULDN'T THROW MY RELATIONSHIP
AWAY.
 SEBASTIAN: PRAWNS SEBASTIAN.
 ELLEN: YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO GO
TO SO MUCH TROUBLE.
 SEBASTIAN: OH, IT WAS
NO TROUBLE AT ALL.
 ELLEN: I FEEL SO FOOLISH.
EVERYTHING IS MAKING ME WEEPY
TONIGHT.
 SEBASTIAN: HEY, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO PRETEND THAT EVERYTHING
IS OK.
 ELLEN: YOU KNOW WHY I WAS
SO HAPPY THE DAY THAT I WAS
THE LADY OF THE MOON
AND YOU WERE THE DUC D'ORLEANS?
 SEBASTIAN: I THOUGHT IT WAS
BECAUSE OF ME.
 ELLEN: I WAS SORT OF RESERVED
BACK THEN.
 SEBASTIAN: "BACK THEN"?
 ELLEN: WELL, I SUPPOSE
I STILL AM.
I DON'T LIKE WEARING MY HEART
ON MY SLEEVE.
BUT WHEN I WORE THAT MASK,
I FELT MORE OPEN.
IT ALLOWED ME TO BE MORE OPEN
AND I FELT FREE TO DO AND SAY
WHATEVER I WANTED.
 SEBASTIAN: YOU KNOW WHAT
I FELT THAT DAY?
 ELLEN: TELL ME.
 SEBASTIAN: HERE I AM,
SPEAKING TO THIS WOMAN,
AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT
SHE LOOKS LIKE.
AND IT DOESN'T MATTER
BECAUSE SHE'S BEAUTIFUL WHERE IT
COUNTS THE MOST.
AND WHO KNEW YOU'D BE
SO GORGEOUS ON THE OUTSIDE, TOO?
ALLERGIES--
THE WATERY EYES.
THE RUNNY NOSE.
NOW THEY'RE
A LITTLE MORE BEARABLE...
BECAUSE NOW
KLEENEX COLDCARE ULTRA COMFORT
HAS THE 3-LAYER SYSTEM.
A SPECIAL ABSORBENT MIDDLE LAYER
SURROUNDED BY ULTIMATE SOFTNESS.
YOU WON'T FIND A SOFTER TISSUE.
AND COLDCARE HELPS KEEP HANDS
CLEAN AND DRY,
LEAVING YOU FREE TO ENJOY
THE THINGS THAT MATTER MOST.
KLEENEX COLDCARE.
THE BEST CARE FOR YOUR ALLERGIES
IS ALL YOUR NOSE NEEDS.
 JOE: YOU KNOW HE'S CRAZY
ABOUT YOU.
 KAREN: NEIL?
 JOE: YEAH.
 KAREN: OH, I'M CRAZY ABOUT
HIM, TOO.
 JOE: YOU KNOW, WHEN I CAME
BACK FROM GREECE, I WASN'T SURE
HOW ALL THIS WAS GOING TO PLAY
OUT WITH EVERYONE.
BUT I REALLY APPRECIATE THE WAY
YOU'VE BENT OVER BACKWARDS
TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
 KAREN: IT'S EASY.
HE'S A TERRIFIC KID.
AND, BESIDES, HE REMINDS ME
OF YOU WHEN YOU WERE THAT AGE.
 KAREN: HE'LL SEE US.
 JOE: WELL, HE'D BETTER USED
TO SEEING US BECAUSE HE'S GOING
TO SEE US KISSING A LOT.
 COURTNEY: GO AHEAD.
ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN, KAREN.
IT'S NOT GOING TO LAST.
 FRANK: ENJOY WHAT?
 COURTNEY: OH, JOE AND KAREN
ARE SUCKING FACE AGAIN.
FOR THE LIFE OF ME, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT HE SEES IN HER.
 FRANK: KAREN HAS A LOT GOING
FOR HER.
SHE'S KIND, UNDERSTANDING,
LOYAL.
 COURTNEY: YEAH.
SO'S A GOLDEN RETRIEVER.
 FRANK: I WOULDN'T EXPECT
YOU TO UNDERSTAND THOSE
ATTRIBUTES.
 COURTNEY: OH.
OH, THAT'S RIGHT.
I FORGOT.
YOU'RE SWEET ON HER, TOO.
 FRANK: I DIDN'T SAY THAT.
 COURTNEY: YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO.
IT'S WRITTEN ALL OVER YOUR FACE.
 FRANK: YOU DON'T KNOW ME
AS WELL AS YOU THINK YOU DO.
 COURTNEY: I KNOW YOU WELL
ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT IF YOU EVER
DID START DATING KAREN,
IT WOULDN'T BE A WEEK BEFORE
YOU GOT TIRED OF ALL THAT
PERKINESS.
 FRANK: OH, REALLY?
 COURTNEY: FRANK, YOU LOVE
SNEAKING AROUND, ALMOST GETTING
CAUGHT.
IF THERE'S NOT A LITTLE DANGER
IN IT, IT'S NOT ANY FUN FOR YOU.
NOW, I HAVE A WEDDING SHOWER
TO PLAN.
I'LL LEAVE YOU TO YOUR
GIRLFRIEND.
 EVE: HEY, IS THAT THAT
RUPTURED APPENDIX IN 621?
 CHRIS: WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP?
 EVE: LOOKING FOR YOU.
 CHRIS: WELL, NOW THAT
YOU FOUND ME, YOU CAN GO BACK
TO YOUR ROOM.
 EVE: NOPE, NOT UNTIL
YOU ANSWER A QUESTION FIRST.
I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT
YOUR VISITS WITH JULIE.
AND THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT,
THE MORE I WONDER "WHAT'S UP
WITH THAT?"
 CHRIS: JULIE'S A FRIEND.
 EVE: YEAH, UNTIL SHE STARTED
MURDERING PEOPLE.
 CHRIS: BECAUSE COOPER
BRAINWASHED HER.
LOOK, EVE, JULIE'S A VICTIM,
TOO.
OK?
I'M JUST DOING WHAT I CAN
FOR HER.
IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?
 EVE: CHRIS, I'M YOUR BEST
FRIEND.
SO DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG
WAY, BUT YOU'RE NOT
THE GOOD SAMARITAN TYPE.
YOU LOOK OUT FOR NUMBER ONE.
 CHRIS: YEAH, WELL, I HATE
TO BURST YOUR BUBBLE, BUT EVERY
NOW AND THEN I ACTUALLY DO HAVE
A PASSING THOUGHT FOR A FELLOW
HUMAN BEING, ESPECIALLY ONE
STUCK IN A PIT LIKE FERNCLIFF.
 EVE: FINE. DON'T TELL ME.
BUT YOU DEFINITELY HAVE
MY CURIOSITY PIQUED.
 CHRIS: LAMBERT, I'M
YOUR BIGGEST FAN.
BUT SOMETIMES THE SKEPTICISM IS
A BIT MUCH.
 EVE: HMM.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
 ELLEN: HELLO?
 MATT: ELLEN.
IT'S MATT.
 ELLEN: HI.
 MAT: HI.
I'VE BEEN DOING A LOT
OF THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT
EVE SAID.
SHE TOLD ME THAT SOMETIMES
PEOPLE LET THEIR PRIDE GET
THE BETTER OF THEM.
MAYBE THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENED
TO ME.
AT ANY RATE, LUNCH,
DINNER, COFFEE, WHATEVER --
IF THE INVITATION IS STILL
ON THE TABLE, WE HAVE A LOT
TO RESOLVE.
 ELLEN: I'M GLAD TO HEAR IT.
 MATT: WILL YOU BE
IN TOMORROW?
 ELLEN: YES.
 MATT: OK.
I'LL SEE YOU THEN.
 ELLEN: ALL RIGHT.
 SEBASTIAN: WHO WAS THAT
ON THE PHONE?
 ELLEN: THE HOSPITAL.
THEY -- THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION
AS TO MY SCHEDULE.
 SEBASTIAN: OH.
ARE YOU GOING IN TOMORROW?
 ELLEN: YES.
 SEBASTIAN: OH.
THAT'S TOO BAD BECAUSE I HAD
THE WHOLE DAY PLANNED,
AND WE WEREN'T EVEN GOING
TO LEAVE THIS COUCH.
