Dynasty s08e06 Episode Script

Steven wants to buy my football team.
- I thought you said - Yes, I did.
I said it's going badly, and it is.
But he thinks he can turn the franchise around.
Last time on Dynasty: Break it up! That's enough! Look! Coach just kicked us off the field again because this jerk attacked me for no reason.
Maitland, that sounds like the story of your life.
Attacked in the locker room, tackled on the field, and blocked on a pass.
You make me sick.
Harris, I wanna see you in my office in one hour.
Don't keep me waiting.
So you think your playing could make much of a difference? I guarantee it.
Josh Harris, I'd like you to meet my wife, Sammy Jo.
I guess I should say my ex-wife.
- Hi.
- Hi.
I need you.
Hmm.
Which means? Which means that I am offering you a job.
- Ha, ha.
- When was the last time we laughed? The last time we did anything special? Last time we made love? I don't know.
You know what? I should be through shaking hands about 8:30, 9:00 tops.
Why don't we have dinner late tonight at The Carlton, huh? I'll be there.
I've been waiting here for over an hour.
Well, I just can't leave now.
I guess we all have our priorities.
Just go on doing what you're doing.
Adam, do you know what it's like for a woman to hear those words: "You cannot have a child"? - I can't believe you're giving up.
- Giving up? Adam, having a family, your child, a Carrington, means just as much to me as it does to you.
You came back here because you're worried about what happened and the truth coming out.
- Does Adam know you're here? - No.
And please, you must promise me that you'll never tell him anything.
Never anything.
Please, promise me that.
When this couple learned that she couldn't have a child of her own, they jmmediately contacted Attorney Emmett Houser, who specialises in finding surrogate mothers, women who will carry a man's child when his own wife can't.
You can have a baby, Adam.
We are definitely off to a good start.
In any race, a strong start is important.
Jeff says that the public reaction to our environmental issue has been just great.
Much better than anticipated.
I'm sure the public realises that our natural resources aren't unlimited.
I can tell you that my natural resources are limited.
Boy, that That is a workout.
Well, you've just earned yourself a tall, cool glass of fresh orange juice.
Really? I was thinking of something a lot sweeter.
Well You know, besides being a terrific kisser, you're gonna make a wonderful governor.
But the race isn't over yet, so back on the bike another 15 minutes.
I cannot believe that he actually went ahead with this nonsense.
Well, your ex-husband seems to be a man of his word.
He's not gonna get away with it.
- It looks like he already has.
- Not in my newspaper.
You buried the story on Page 9.
Do you think that's gonna make it go away? Are you suggesting that I splash it over the front page - like the competition? - That's exactly what I'm suggesting.
There is another side to this story.
There is.
But I don't think that people are going to shed too many tears over Alexis Colby losing her lumber mill.
People who need jobs, small businesses that can barely get by.
You're absolutely right.
A new industry in that area would be a tremendous economic boost to this state.
And Blake Carrington has chosen to ignore that fact.
Yes, he's offering hiking trails.
I'm offering jobs.
I like it.
I like it too.
I do have a story to tell.
A front-page story.
Dana, Kristina just drew this.
"Governor Daddy" by Kristina Carrington.
She's certainly captured him.
- Yes, she did.
It must be great watching her grow up.
You and Adam have a wonderful experience ahead of you, when you have your own child.
I have to go.
Dana.
Did I say something wrong? Oh, it's nothing.
I It's just getting late.
Come on.
I know you better than that.
What is it? I'm just getting so tired of everyone in this family badgering me about having children.
Sometimes I think that's all any of you think about.
"Family is important.
Children are your future.
" I'm sick of it.
Dana, what's this all about? - L I can't talk about it.
I have to go.
- Please.
This isn't about the family interfering, is it? I'm just having a hard time accepting Accepting what? That Adam and I can't That I can't You can't have a baby, is that it? Yes.
Dana.
I'm so sorry.
I can't have a baby, but I have heard of a way.
Will you help me? Oh.
Damn it, a shoe can't just disappear.
Who knows? Maybe there's a one-legged cat burglar on the prowl.
It always happens when I'm late.
One shoe, no mascara.
Why don't you do yourself a favour? Leave a few things here so that you Unh.
Oh, no.
I'm not ready for that.
Living together is out of the question.
Who said anything about living together? All I suggested was leaving a toothbrush, maybe an extra pair of shoes.
Mm-mm, that's how it gets started.
It doesn't ever have to go any further.
- Why are you so uptight? - I'm not.
There are just things that I wanna do with my life.
And you think I'm gonna get in your way, that it? - No, because I won't let you.
- Oh, fine.
You want it all, and you want it now.
I know what that's like.
Don't patronise me, Dex.
You've already made your mark in life.
Don't tell me about how tough it was on the way up.
Leslie, you're already on your way up.
Don't you know that? But I want more than that.
All my life I've been on the outside looking in.
And now I want in.
God, what am I really doing here? You're here to get information from an attorney, that's all.
I know, but suddenly, the idea of some other woman carrying Adam's child scares me.
Look, as easily as we walked in here, we can just turn and walk out if that's what you'd like.
No, I'll be all right.
I received a psychological evaluation on you from Dr.
Davis this morning.
Well, I hope it's all right.
It was interesting, Mrs.
Carrington.
Now, I have to believe that you are sincere in wanting to involve yourself and your husband in a surrogate-mother programme.
- Correct? - Yes.
I've given it a lot of thought.
And sincere is the key word here.
I am.
That's a start.
Mrs.
Carrington, do you fully realise that if we follow through with this programme that the child in question will not be biologically yours? - Yes, I understand that.
- Are you sure? What I mean is, will you be able to accept the fact that there will never be a physical connection between you and the child? Yes, I can accept that.
L It - It's better if I do, isn't it? - Let me ask the questions, please.
And you will nonetheless care for this child as though it were your own, your own flesh and blood? Yes, of course I will.
And you've thought very deeply about all of this? Mr.
Houser, I have given it a lifetime of thought over the last few days.
And if you don't believe me, or you insist on treating me as if I were on trial defending myself for some crime, then you can go to hell.
And I will go somewhere else for help.
Mrs.
Carrington, wait.
Please.
Please, sit down.
I'm sorry, but I had to push.
Are you telling me that you treat all of your prospective clients this way? That's right.
I'm tough, and I'm insulting, and I ask embarrassing questions.
- I give them every chance to back out.
- Why? Because I've got to be sure the parents are totally committed to this.
This is not exactly your everyday occurrence.
Mr.
Houser.
My husband and I want a child more than anything in the world.
I know that now.
Let's go to work.
This is really a very simple process.
We're not talking about test-tube babies here.
There is no physical contact.
The surrogate mother is artificially inseminated with your husband's sperm.
And is it usually successful? Yes, it is.
I've been checking my files ever since I talked to Dr.
Davis, and I think I have someone who will be acceptable for your purposes.
Would you like to meet her? I think I can arrange it for tomorrow.
Yeah.
Well? It's possible.
Oh.
Krystle, I know you and Blake don't have any secrets, - but I don't want - Dana, you don't have to ask.
Once you tell Adam and if the two of you decide to go ahead with this, it's your decision and your news to tell everyone.
Okay.
If we decide to go ahead.
Have a child with another woman? My God, Dana.
Do you know what you're talking about? Yes, I do.
- I've thought it over.
- You've thought it over? Without talking to me first.
Why not? - Adam - Dana.
You went back to Dr.
Davis to talk it over? You went to see an attorney to talk it over without discussing it with me.
Why not? Why all the secrecy? Because I wanted to find out if we had a chance at getting what we both want so much.
A child.
You tell me that you don't really want one? Of course I do.
You know I do.
But to have a child that would be part mine and part somebody else's.
A woman I don't even know.
A stranger.
Darling, don't you see? That is a way for us to have a child.
Adam.
Don't you know I would go to the ends of the Earth to give you a baby if I could? If I only could.
You said something about meeting the woman tomorrow.
Who is she? I don't know all that much about her, except that she comes very highly recommended.
I'm gonna have to think about it.
All right.
We don't have to meet with her.
I can call Mr.
Houser and tell him to forget it.
Is that what you want? Dana, what do you want? I want for you to be happy.
For you to become the father you've always wanted to be.
For both of us to have someone else to love, and A part of you.
That's all that's really important to me is that it would be yours.
And, you know, we don't have to make a decision tomorrow.
All we have to do is talk with the woman.
Please.
Yes.
Well, everything seems to be on time and in order as promised.
Thank you, Leslie.
I appreciate you getting this done for me.
That's so nice to hear.
I imagine you don't get too much appreciation out at the pipeline.
Dex has been He's tried to be fair with me.
Be honest.
Do you really think that there's a future for a woman working with Dex Dexter? - It's a living for now.
- Yeah.
Well, you know, I know him.
I was married to him for a while, and he has some rather primitive ideas of women's place in society.
I owe him a lot.
You owe yourself more.
When I see a woman like you, Mrs.
Colby, how much you've accomplished in spite of all the odds that are against you, it gives me hope that someday I could Well, I know I can't compare myself to you.
Oh.
On the contrary, I see a lot of similarities.
We're both bright, determined.
Except that you are loyal to an employer who does not deserve your loyalty.
Women like us, Leslie, we always find a way.
Well, I I do have a feeling that I won't find my way at the pipeline.
You may not have to.
- Absolutely not.
- You haven't listened to a word.
I've heard every word, and the answer is still no.
Look, I am not asking you to drop the wilderness park.
All I'm asking is, isn't there some way to compromise? Compromise? Alexis has no idea what that word means.
And I'm not here to plead Mother's case either.
I'm just trying to keep this family from being torn apart.
Torn apart? You're trying to figure out how this is going to affect you.
I should have remembered it's a waste of time trying to reason with you.
Father, what's wrong? - You look as if war has been declared.
- It's a local war.
Look at that.
Alexis is taking our environmental issue.
She's written a front-page editorial blasting our whole campaign.
What? - Yes.
She says that the wildlife refuge would have a negative economic impact, and she uses a lot of trumped-up numbers and half- truths to back up her story.
- Nice work, Adam.
- Father, I knew nothing about this.
- Oh, sure.
- I'm as surprised as you are.
- I had no idea.
- I believe you, son.
Now, do you think that's gonna hurt us? No, it's too early to tell.
I'll make some phone calls.
- There you go.
Grandpa! Look who's come to visit.
- Grandpa.
- Hi, fellows.
Grandpa.
Why, I'm so glad to see you, L.
B.
You've grown so much.
Me too? - Yeah.
You're both big.
You've both gotten so Hey.
Where are you going? Ha, ha.
Hey.
I'll tell you, I've got two rowdy but terrific grandsons.
I thought I'd take them out to the football practice.
I didn't expect to see you here, Adam.
I had some business to discuss with Jeff.
Adam's business has made the front page.
Hold it.
We'll get back to the campaign later.
Right now, we have a bigger problem.
Fellows, wait a minute.
Wait, wait, hold it.
I think I've got the answer.
Now, that's it.
You sit in this corner.
Danny, you sit in the other corner.
Fine.
You know, someday they're gonna be running Denver-Carrington.
This chair is gonna be theirs.
It'll be large enough for my next grandchild too, Adam.
I thought you weren't coming.
I'm so glad you changed your mind.
I decided you were right.
We do have to look at all the possibilities.
Well, Mr.
Houser said she is a lovely woman.
Hmm.
And she has two kids of her own, wonderful, healthy kids.
I know it sounds a little silly, but I'm dying to see what she looks like.
- Would that make a difference? - Not really.
Might be nice if she looked a little like me.
She couldn't possibly be as beautiful as you.
I, um I picture her as more the, uh, earth-mother type.
- I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
- That's all right.
Mr.
Houser, this is my husband, Adam Carrington.
- Hello.
- How do you do? And I have someone I'd like you to meet.
Karen? Karen Atkinson, I'd like you to meet the Carringtons.
I'm very happy to meet you.
Wanna tell me where you've been all day? - With Alexis.
You knew that.
- But for hours? Since when do I have to punch a time clock around here? All right, now that you are here, would you mind looking over these specs for me? Alexis offered me a job.
Well, that doesn't surprise me.
I've decided to accept the offer.
Come on, Leslie.
Don't you realise what this is all about? It's about someone who thinks I deserve the opportunity to make my own way.
Oh, making your own way working for Alexis Colby.
Leslie, this has nothing to do with you.
Don't you realise she is using you to get at me? Ugh, your ego is a work of art.
You can't believe it is simply one woman helping another.
If the woman weren't Alexis Colby, I might buy it.
Well, maybe you just don't know her as well as you think you do.
I know one thing.
She is in a league all by herself.
And I'm prepared to play in that league.
Why do you think I offered to deliver those papers? Why do you think I changed out of my work clothes? I know what I'm doing, Dex.
And I'm gonna go on doing it no matter who tries to get in my way.
- You were a cheerleader? - What a disaster.
I had so many years of ballet lessons, all my "rah, rahs" looked like something out of Swan Lake.
I lasted exactly one semester.
And who's this? This is Kelly, my younger daughter.
- She's very pretty.
- And she looks just like you.
She's a very independent little girl.
But Allison, my 5-year-old, needs a lot of attention.
That's one of the reasons the surrogate programme was appealing.
And why is that? Quite frankly, the support money will allow me to stay home with my children.
As a single mother, I've always had to work.
We didn't realise you weren't married.
My ex-husband left after Kelly was born.
Do you have any contact with him? No.
Heh.
Jessie has no interest in the children or me.
It must have been rough raising two kids on your own.
Oh, we've been doing pretty well.
But with Allison starting school and feeling a little scared, it would be nice to stay home this year.
And you don't mind being - Pregnant? - Yes.
No.
I love it.
I know some people might think of it as a burden.
But to me, carrying a child is the most wonderful feeling in the world.
Every woman should I'm sorry.
It's okay, I understand.
Um, Karen, thank you for spending all this time with us.
- I think we should go.
- In a minute, Dana.
Karen, we've been asking all the questions.
Is there anything you'd like to know about us? I think everybody in Colorado knows the Carringtons.
You'll make wonderful parents.
I hope my being single doesn't bother you.
- Well No.
As a matter of fact, in many ways, it's probably better.
Well, Josh, you made it happen.
Our first win in six weeks.
Cheers.
Well, here's to the guy that gave me my shot.
Absolutely phenomenal.
Three touchdown passes.
- Runs the last one in himself.
I know, I was there.
Twelfth row, 50-yard line.
Pick you out of a crowd any time.
Mr.
Carrington, there's a man named Fredericks in the lobby to see you.
Oh.
Okay, uh, thanks.
I'll be right back.
Excuse me.
Alone at last.
- So you like football? - Can take it or leave it.
You don't seem to me to be the take-it-or-leave-it sort of woman.
What's that supposed to mean? You see what you want and you go after it.
I'm like that too.
So, what's the story with you and the boss? If there was a story, I certainly wouldn't discuss it with you.
Worse than I thought.
There's a problem at the office.
- I gotta leave right away.
- Oh, uh, I'll drive Sammy Jo home.
- Oh, no, don't bother.
- Well, I insist.
It'll be a pleasure.
Okay, thanks.
It shouldn't take too long.
I'm afraid you're right, Blake.
Alexis' attack on our campaign seems to be affecting the polls.
Yes, we are down a bit, and Ralph Dunbar seems to be catching up.
And we're losing ground in the minority communities.
I tell you, that newspaper of Alexis' is completely irresponsible.
But apparently, her readers believe it.
I'm sure that eventually, people ill start seeing through her.
I don't think we can afford to wait.
If you'd agreed to talk to my mother earlier, maybe this could have been avoided.
I don't think it would have made any difference.
Anyway, I'm digging up statistics to refute what Alexis has been saying.
- What kind of statistics? - On her proposed lumber mill.
I just don't think it's gonna create the amount of jobs she's predicting.
- Good.
- I'll be working on it tonight.
Fine.
Jeff, uh, I think you've been working too hard.
You know, Krystle is right.
That could wait until tomorrow.
Why don't the four of us go out to dinner? Just relax.
I'm sure we could all use it.
I promised L.
B.
I'd have dinner with him tonight.
Well, I'd feel a lot more comfortable if I could get this work out of the way.
I won't be late.
Fallon.
Darling, won't you join us tonight? It would certainly be good fun if we could spend some time with you.
Oh, I know it would, Daddy, but, uh, not tonight.
Oh, Blake.
They'll work it out.
I'm sure they will.
- What about David? - Who? For the baby.
David Carrington.
I like that.
David Carrington.
Do you think she's pretty? Who? Karen.
She's very pretty, isn't she? Yes, she is.
That's nice for us, isn't it? I don't know.
I think maybe we should talk to a couple of other women.
We don't have to decide on the first one we meet.
But Karen's perfect.
And for a girl I kind of like Jennifer.
Jennifer Carrington.
I don't think she's perfect.
What do you mean? Well, for one thing, she's not married.
Well, I think that's a plus.
One less person to deal with.
Besides, your lawyer said he thought that she was an ideal match for us.
- Yes, but - Well, you like her, don't you? She's a good mother.
She's bright, she's attractive.
And most important of all, she was a cheerleader.
Adam, this is a very big decision.
I'm just beginning to think maybe you were right in the first place.
That maybe we shouldn't be rushing into this.
I'd like to be sure.
I'm sure enough for both of us.
Karen has everything we could hope for.
Everything we could hope for, or everything you could hope for? Oh, my God.
Is that what this is all about? Dana.
The only interest I have in Karen Atkinson is the fact that she's offered to help us have a child.
Our child.
That's all.
You sure? You're the woman I love.
The only woman I will ever love.
And this is gonna work out.
I know she's the right one.
I just know it.
Please, trust me.
Please.
Hmm? I hope they're paying you time and a half for overtime.
Hello, Leslie.
I was just looking for Uncle Blake.
He went out to dinner with Krystle.
Oh.
And left you behind without a crust of bread to gnaw on? I'm really not hungry tonight.
You know, sometimes taking a break is good.
Revitalises the old grey matter.
And you are just in luck, because I have been combing the streets of Denver just looking for someone to take me to dinner.
I really can't.
Not tonight.
I've been sworn to secrecy.
However, there is this place No.
Don't ask me to tell you where, but they have killer lasagna.
And that is not even the best part.
I've seen otherwise sane men give up their firstborn for a second piece of Mr.
Ottavio's garlic bread.
And the wine, mm.
September, a vintage month.
You know, you're a very persuasive woman.
Where's Daddy? He has to work, sweetheart.
When he gets home, he'll give you a big kiss.
Can't we call him? We don't wanna disturb him.
Please? I won't talk a lot.
- Can I talk? - Well, he's not there.
He's probably on his way home.
Do you miss Daddy too? Thanks for the ride.
- What are you doing? - Give me chance to explain.
- No.
Now let me out.
- Just one minute, please? One minute.
Look, I know I was a I was kind of a wise guy at dinner.
And I don't blame you for giving me the cold shoulder all the way home.
I just don't know how to act around you.
Well, then, let me give you a clue.
Coming on to me in front of Steven and then holding me prisoner in your car is probably the wrong tack to be taking.
Okay, so I'm discovering I'm not exactly Mr.
Smooth.
I'm a football player.
I spend my days with guys who break heads for a living.
And your nights? Well, let's just say I'm not used to ladies like you.
See, I grew up hard.
I mean, no college scholarship.
I worked nights.
Barely made it through my classes.
Heh.
I was third string until my senior year.
Then you threw the game-winning hundred-yard pass, - and the rest is history? - Almost.
The first-string quarterback broke his ankle, the second stringer flunked out.
The coach had no one to go with but me.
Then I threw the hundred-yard pass.
You know, you got a nice smile.
Hold it right there, hot shot.
I'm not buying your dumb-country-boy routine.
And if you don't let me out, you might find yourself with an injury that will not only prevent you from playing but from ever fathering a child.
This is great.
The papers loved Harris.
They're calling him a saviour.
The crowd loved him too.
They went wild for him.
Well, I guess all those touchdowns were a big deal.
Yeah, but it wasn't just winning.
It was the way he did it.
Down six points with a minute to go, he took the team 85 yards and scored on a bootleg.
- It was fantastic.
- A bootleg? What's a bootleg? Bootleg.
You remember the last touchdown he faked to the tailback and ran around The hell with it.
It was a great call.
- I'm telling you, this guy has it.
- Yeah, he has it all right.
You talked to him for a little while.
What did you think? You mean, what did I think about being stuck for two hours with a loud-mouthed, self- centred, dull-witted jock? I had a great time.
Wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Yeah, well, Harris certainly has some rough edges.
Rough edges? The man belongs in a cage, Steven.
What did he say to you? Did he do something to upset you? No.
No, he just needs a personality transplant, that's all.
He pulled through for you and that's the important thing.
I'm sorry he was rude to you.
He seems to have made an impression on everybody.
Yes, that's the one right there.
Uh-oh.
I think I've been spotted.
By whom? I don't know his name, but I believe we met him at a fund-raising luncheon.
Here he comes now.
Blake? Blake Carrington.
I thought that was you.
- Hello, nice to see you again.
- Nice to see you.
- Uh, Krystle, I'd like you to meet, uh - Harry Donalds.
We've already met, darling.
Nice to see you.
How's your wife? Oh, wonderful, thanks.
Blake, I hope I'm not intruding, but l I'm in the middle of breakfast with some business associates.
You know, uh, potential contributors.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
I wondered if you could spare a couple of minutes just to say hello.
Certainly, I'd be happy to do it.
Excuse me, darling.
I'll be right back.
Bye.
Charming group of friends your husband appears to be cultivating recently.
Good morning, Alexis.
Yes, it is a good morning, isn't it? Have you seen the latest polls? Blake's popularity appears to be slipping.
Oh, I hadn't noticed.
But if you think your misleading editorials are going to cost Blake this election, you're wrong.
You know, Alexis, your preoccupation with my husband is amazing, and a little sad.
What is sad, Krystle, is that you fail to understand the power of the press.
The public like what they're reading, and they're responding.
Well, you have made a lot of noise, which is one of the few things you do rather well.
But it's just noise, no substance.
We're not worried.
If you're not worried, Krystle, you're underestimating the opposition.
And you're underestimating Blake and me.
Ah, coffee.
You're late for breakfast.
That's all right.
I'll get something downtown.
Ah.
Boy, does it feel great to sleep in.
New job.
New clothes.
No hard hat.
Ha, ha.
- Daddy! - Hey there, tiger.
- How are you doing? - Where were you last night? Mommy and I called you.
Um L.
B.
, you'll be late for school.
We waited and waited, Daddy.
- Well, l - Uh-oh.
I think I'm the bad guy.
See, your daddy was working so hard, but I dragged him out of the office and I took him to dinner.
I hope that's not a problem.
No, of course not.
L.
B.
, you'll be late.
Me too.
I don't wanna keep Alexis waiting on my first day.
I'm gonna be home early tonight.
Why don't we go out and get some ice cream? Okay.
- Get going now.
Okay.
Well, I guess I'd better be off.
See you later? You are quite a woman.
You know, you saved my neck with that introduction.
Poor Krystle.
It must be terribly difficult for her to keep up with all of this with her background.
Darling, I don't know why you let her get to you this way.
Blake, it's one thing when she attacks me, but when she attacks you I'm sorry, I just have a very difficult time with that.
Don't sell yourself short.
You just touched a nerve.
You can't stop now.
I have no intention of stopping.
I believe I'm right.
What's her next move? You know, if she's hit this hard on the wilderness area, what's she gonna do next? Now, the important thing is, you don't want it to look like a personal vendetta.
Heh.
Stop sounding like Krystle.
I couldn't care less about Blake.
- She's really out to get you.
- Darling, let her try.
The only issue that's gonna be important to the voters of this state is whether or not Blake Carrington is gonna be a good governor.
The truth is, there is no such thing as a good governor.
All people wanna know is, how will his winning affect me? - Heh.
That's human nature.
- Oh, you're so cynical.
I love that in a man.
Well, no matter what happens, you'll always be my favourite candidate.
Good.
I need the women's vote.
I am really sorry about those figures you need for Blake's speech, Krystle.
However, I couldn't bring them all because they aren't quite ready yet.
It's all right.
It's not the end of the world.
I'll get them tomorrow.
Thank you.
I think my mind has been someplace else all day.
L Actually, Adam is over at the doctor's office right now.
And if everything checks out, Karen could be inseminated this afternoon.
Are you having second thoughts about this? No.
If you have any doubts at all, now is the time to say something.
But Adam wants this so much, and I have pushed so hard.
But you're allowed to change your mind.
Well, this should be something you both want.
We do.
It's just I think l I'm feeling a little left out.
Then tell him.
I have, and all he does is try to reassure me over and over again.
I don't think I've ever loved you more than I do at this moment.
I love you too.
- But It's gonna be fine.
We've checked all the legalities of the contract.
Oh, Dana, you are gonna make the most wonderful mother.
Darling, I want you to be proud of me.
Oh.
The doctor said the timing is great.
We should know in a few days whether or not it's taken.
It's gonna work.
I know it's gonna work.
Oh, Karen.
What are you doing here? Peace offering? I'm not interested in anything you have to offer.
Look, I know I was a jerk last night.
Heh.
At least we agree on something.
All I wanted to say was, it won't happen again.
I'll just leave these over here.
You don't have to do that.
You can give them to me.
Uh, no, that's okay.
What's the matter? You can give me the flowers.
I don't believe it.
Are you afraid of my horse? Not your horse, lady, any horse.
I've never been too comfortable around anything bigger or faster than me.
Heh.
I'm shocked.
Josh Harris, Mr.
Macho, is afraid.
- Ha, ha.
- Terrific.
Go ahead, laugh.
Come here.
He won't hurt you.
- No, thanks.
- Come here.
Come on.
There.
See, he's real gentle.
Sammy Jo, that's not why I came here.
Shouldn't you be at practice, Harris?
