12x19 - Bad Dog

[bunniefuu]

-Next on Knots Landing. -Listen to me, Anne.

[Anne screaming]

[Nick] Calm down, I'll explain.

There's a dead woman on your bed, Nick.

Betty said the momentum was worth something.

How much?

$20,000.

Somebody's doll.

It is a memento.

A restraining order.

"Refrain from all contact with Richard and Jason Lochner.

Any attempt to contact Richard or Jason Lochner,

including telephone calls and letters,

will be in violation of this order."

[Richard] Got a lot to learn, little boy.

Who's better than your father to teach it to you?

It's just that I simply cannot,

cannot become emotionally involved

with my boss.

Who said anything about emotional involvement?

I was just thinking about getting my adrenaline up.

[theme music]

Look.

She looks so peaceful.

I don't think she died. Really.

[window glass breaking]

Nick.

[tense music]

[Gary] Hey, guys.

Do you have any idea where Mommy went?

No.

Did she leave because she was mad at us?

No, of course not.

Um...

What were you doing before she left?

We were looking at Valentine's.

Did anything about the Valentine's upset her?

-No. -She was surprised...

that we didn't show it to our Sunday school teacher.

Mm-hmm. And?

Did mommy ask about her?

[Betsy] Yeah, mom didn't know anything, so I told her.

Oh.

[knocking on door]

Coming.

-[knocking on door] -Coming.

-Hi. -Where is she?

-Who? -Freeloading...

gold digging sl*t of a mother, that's who.

But she doesn't live here anymore.

Well, she is not going to get away with this.

Not going to get away with what?

Val not going to get away with what?

[door slamming]

Where did she go?

I don't know.

[phone ringing]

Excuse me.

-Hello. -Hi, Paige.

It's Gary Ewing. Is your mother there?

Well, isn't she Miss Popularity?

No, she doesn't live here anymore.

Has Val come over there?

Yes, as a matter of fact, she's here right now.

Hold on. I'll get her.

-No. No. -[Paige] What?

Don't tell her I'm calling.

Just stall until I get there.

Why?

She needs medical attention.

Okay, I'll do my best.

[Gary] Thanks. I'm on my way.

Well, make it quick.

Well, you know who that was.

Val?

Val.

-[Karen] I'm not gonna say it. -[Mack] Say what?

[Karen] You can't make me say it no matter what.

[Mack] Okay, whatever it is.

[Karen] You know what it is.

[Mack] Oh, you mean Linda.

[Karen] Don't mention that name in front of me.

[Mack] Oh, you mean that woman

that didn't show up for dinner tonight...

without even a phone call?

Isn't it the second time? I believe?

Didn't you have a luncheon that she didn't--?

Alright, I'll say it. That woman is the rudest,

dubious, most self-centered,

guileful person I ever have the misfortune of meeting.

I hate it that I raised my son to be so good that...

He can't even see how awful she is.

Maybe it's a good sign she didn't show up.

-What? -Maybe there's something wrong...

between Michael and Linda.

Please, oh please,

I will do anything if he doesn't marry her.

I will do a hundred good deeds,

a thousand acts of gratitude.

I will crawl on my knees to the Holy Land.

[chuckling] Karen, come on.

Don't make promises you can't keep.

I can keep them.

You going to crawl on your knees across the ocean?

Alright, okay.

But I swear,

if my son doesn't marry her,

I will never criticize him again.

I will be happy with whatever he does

from here on out.

I swear.

Maybe you should call Michael.

I can't tell him that. That's between you and me.

No, I mean to see if everything is okay.

-He seemed okay. -With Linda.

Maybe she had a flat tire.

Maybe something went wrong.

It never occurred to me that.

she might have a good excuse for not showing up.

You know, I really meant to get to the McKenzie's

for dinner tonight.

I'll take that as a compliment.

You should.

It's not like me to miss an obligation.

And I hate to keep people waiting.

Your list of attributes is growing.

You know, with a little luck and green lights all the way,

I bet I could still make dessert.

[Greg] Are you kidding?

The way Karen talks, you'll be there in time

for the antipasto.

No, if I were to walk in this late,

it could make Michael look bad.

I mean, it would be so obvious

that I work longer hours than he does.

I mean, he is my fiance.

I'd hate to embarrass him.

Sensitivity another attribute.

Well, I had a really nice time.

Thanks for inviting me.

-Goodnight, Sir. -[Greg] Hey, listen.

As long as you're gonna be late,

why don't you stick around?

[chuckles]

Well,

I guess another half an hour couldn't hurt.

Well, I didn't even get a chance to try.

I mean, she was out of here before I even got off the phone.

Oh, God. Did she say anything?

Well, she said the mother wasn't going to get away with it,

That she was a freeloading,

gold digging sl*t.

I didn't know she knew mother that well.

[groans] You better tell your mother

that Val's looking for her.

Well, I don't plan on seeing her.

And when did you two get involved?

We didn't. We're just friends.

She's the kid's Sunday school teacher.

-My mother? -Yeah. Thanks, Paige...

I'm not asleep.

Good,

I missed you.

My project took a little bit longer

than I expected.

Must have been one hell of a project.

It was.

You can't do this anymore.

Thanks a lot.

I'm talking about tonight.

You know what?

Didn't bother to call to say you weren't coming to my mother's.

Obviously you wanted to insult me.

Oh, Michael, I'm sorry.

I just got so involved with my research.

I lost all track of time.

Did you lose track of your phone, too?

Because I tried calling.

You were checking on me?

We were starving.

I wanted to know where you were.

My poor mother reheated the dinner

until it was dry enough to gag a horse.

You always have to lay it on so thick

when it comes to your mother.

No wonder I love my work.

Research reports are more fun than you'll ever be.

I mean, Michael, really, spending an evening

with your mother's meatloaf is not exactly a big whoopee.

And if you can't see that, then I think you've got a problem.

Look, don't try to turn me into the neurotic here

just because I know when to leave the office.

Oh, so now I'm neurotic

because I plan to make something of myself.

Linda, you've already made something of yourself.

I just don't like it.

Oh, I see you're jealous.

You know, you've never supported me or my work.

And now I see why, you're afraid

I'm going to be better than you are.

You are jealous.

I'm not jealous, okay?

I want you to do well.

[Michael] I'd be thrilled to have a successful wife.

But I'm not spending one more night

sharing the bed with you and your marketing reports

Now either you start leaving your work at the office, Linda,

and at a decent hour.

Or you start leaving your engagement ring

on the dresser.

Do you understand?

Or should I fax it to you?

[dramatic music]

[Nick] I wish you'd hurry. I'm tired.

Well, whose fault is that?

We couldn't very well spend the night at that hotel.

I can't believe you didn't have money

for another hotel room.

I thought Betty paid you.

Don't blame Betty.

She died before she had a chance.

No cash advance?

I guess she didn't trust you, huh?

[laughs] You get thrown out of your apartment

by your own daughter

and you talk to me about trust?

I was not thrown out.

It was a simple misunderstanding.

[chuckles]

There she is.

I got to take these tapes back.

What do you want me to rent for tonight?

I have a date tonight.

A what? A date?

-You didn't tell me that. -Yes, I did.

-No, you didn't. -I did.

You told me that I would remember it.

Dad.

No big deal.

Don't worry about it. Just like to plan ahead.

You want me to drive you?

[Julie] No.

Who are you going with? That Pookie girl?

-[Julie chuckling] No. -Who's driving?

My date.

He got a license?

What do you expect daddy? He's 17.

[Nick] Maybe there's something inside.

Yeah, like a b*mb.

We should get these appraised.

We can't be seen in possession of that doll.

They'll k*ll us.

They don't know who we are.

Yeah, I'm sure that there's nobody out there

looking for Dimitri Pappas right now.

Who's Dimitri Pappas?

I am Nick Shillace.

You should really teach your daughter

how to shop.

You know, we can't show this to any appraiser.

Whoever these people are,

they are not going to have hit men

waiting at every antique shop

in the county.

Well then, let's go.

Come on, Sprinkles.

Don't take the dog.

And have him pee all over the carpet?

I'm in enough trouble with my daughter as it is, okay?

-Dimitri. -Not Dimitri.

Nick. Nick.

[telephone ringing]

[Karen] If that's Linda calling to apologize,

tell her I'm not home.

When will you be back?

[Karen] For her? When hell freezes over.

-[Mack] Hello. -But find out...

what her excuse was.

This is he.

Alright. I'll be right over. Thank you.

Who was that?

Jason's social worker.

He's in the hospital.

[Karen] Mack.

-How is he? -He's unconscious.

[Val] Why's here? Don't try telling me she wasn't.

I'm not blind I got eyes. I can see.

I suppose that this is just a figment of my imagination.

-No, that's real. -Uh-huh.

Well, the two of you were here together in my house.

It's disgusting.

At least you could have done is clean up.

You didn't even bother to wash the sheets.

Val, there was a kid staying here.

Mack was hiding him out.

Oh, Gary, come on. You could do better than that.

You go on.

I'll get to the hospital as soon as I can.

[Gary] How many times do I have to say it?

There is no other woman.

You could say it many times as you want.

It is not going to make it true.

-[Karen] Val. -What?

There was a young man living there.

We should have cleaned up after him.

I forgot.

You don't have to bother covering for him.

I already know who she is.

There isn't another woman.

Oh-h*-h*!

[gibbering]

[dramatic music]

Beautiful workmanship.

That's in good condition.

I was thrilled when my aunt gave it to me.

It's definitely an original.

And rare?

Very.

How very?

$25,000.

Goodness.

I know at least three people are

who have been looking for this model.

In fact,

you might be willing to sign a check

for it right now.

Well, I think we--

I think we should give this

a little more thought.

Are you crazy, $25,000?

We don't even have money for car care

and you turn down $25,000?

Betty said it was worth $60,000.

Betty's dead.

I want another appraisal.

What can it hurt?

The man fits Dimitri's description.

I don't know who the woman is.

[dramatic music]

At least his father is in jail.

Why didn't someone jail him before he did this?

Why can't we just sell it for "25,000?

It's worth more.

What? You heard the other appraiser $500.

That's what he offered us.

Then ask yourself,

why is there such a big difference

between the two offers?

Maybe one dealer's a Barbie freak,

and the other one isn't.

What are you doing?

Looking for something out of place,

Something that shouldn't be here. Huh?

Maybe he's on the doll.

Or maybe it's inside.

I need a knife.

Forget it.

Anne, the doll is not worth so much,

but maybe there is something inside that is.

And maybe there's not,

in which case we'll have nothing.

I am not going to let you destroy

a $25,000 doll.

[telephone ringing]

-Here. -What's this?

It's the print out on the consumer profile

you needed.

Well, you could have sent it through interoffice mail.

I didn't want it to get lost.

My engagement ring?

You left it on the dresser this morning.

You told me to.

I don't want to break up, Linda.

I just want things to be different.

I think that you want me to be different

and I can't be different.

I'm never going to fit in with you or your family.

I'm probably never going to fit in with anybody.

And I can't keep this.

Linda.

You are the kindest, sweetest person

I have ever known.

And wearing this ring has probably meant more to me

than anything else in my entire life.

[Linda] I know it's over.

And I know I have to give this back.

[sobbing] And I'm sorry for crying.

It just hurts so much.

I want you to keep it.

It doesn't have to be an engagement ring.

We'll call it a friendship ring.

Okay?

Okay.

[dramatic music]

Do you want to sell the mounting too,

or just the stone?

You might as well keep the whole thing.

I'm never going to wear it.

I can give you $3000.

Well, the PTA is always talking about

how important it is for parents to become involved

in their children's school experience.

[Charlotte] That's true.

I'm not doing anything tonight.

This would be a perfect opportunity

for me to get involved in Julie's school experience.

-As a chaperone? -[Frank] Yeah. Exactly.

Let me guess. This is Julie's first date.

[chuckling] No, come on.

No, she spent a lot of date.

But Horace is picking her up. Right?

Horace?

Is that his name? Horace?

Oh, he is a nice young man.

-[Frank] Well, how do you know? -Well, he was a student of mine.

Huh...

And well, how do you know he asked her out for a date?

Oh, teachers here, who's dating whom, Frank?

And what makes you think he asked her?

-What? -[Charlotte laughing]

I was only teasing, lighten up,

and it's okay to be concerned

about who your daughter is going out with.

Why are you reading things into this?

I'm just trying to do my bit for the school.

-Of course you are. -Charlotte.

Come on, it's a personal favor.

Well, professionally speaking.

I'd have to wonder if you'd be an effective chaperone

spending the whole night watching

one couple.

Okay, bottom line.

If you don't make me an official chaperone,

I'm going to crash the party.

Feel strongly about this, do you?

Charlotte, please.

[Charlotte chuckles]

Tell me something.

How was my mom like when she was young?

Young? She was never young. She was always middle-aged.

Come on, really.

She was the same. She was the same then

as she is now.

She must have been different in some ways.

You mean, if she stay out late,

drink beer and make out in the back of 57 Chevy?

[Kate laughing] God.

But she did date right?

Well, there was one guy,

but he always wore a brown paper bag over his head.

We never knew who he was.

I don't think dating was her style.

Why don't you think?

She just thought that the high school men, college men

were too immature for her?

Well, what about after college,

before she met my dad?

Well, she went off to California.

I didn't follow her then, why?

I don't know, I just, I just get the feeling

she wasn't always the way she is now.

She was worse.

[Kate laughs]

Thanks for the umbrella.

Thanks for the books.

-See you. -Drive carefully.

Okay.

Professor Whittaker.

Professor Whittaker.

-Yes? -Hi.

I need to talk to you about my thesis.

I spent all weekend at the stacks.

I still can't find enough information

on the anthropoids.

Professor Whittaker.

I'm sorry.

I've got a class to teach in a few minutes.

Could we meet in an hour? We can talk then.

Yeah, sure.

[eerie music]

-Hi. -Hi.

-I don't mean to be a pest... -No, no, you're not a pest.

Look, I have to be someplace else,

so why don't you walk with me?

We can talk on the way.

Okay.

Checked out all the books you mentioned the other day,

but sometimes the material was repetitive.

Here's the bibliography I got from the librarian.

[dramatic music]

What do you want?

My father's name.

Your father's name...

is the same as yours.

Brewer.

My other father.

[car engine starts]

Anything yet?

No.

Well, I'm going to take a shower

and get cleaned up before Paige gets home.

Take a shower now?

And I want you to come with me.

You don't trust me with the doll?

Well, I could take the doll,

but you'd be more fun.

[romantic music]

[puppy yelping]

[Anne] Bad dog, bad dog.

[Anne] Maybe if I sew the doll back together,

the dealer will still buy her.

What is it?

Lint.

Great.

[sighs]

What else can go wrong?

[door opening]

[Paige] Who's in there?

In the bedroom.

[clears throat] Is that you, honey?

[Paige] Mother?

Oh, you're home early.

[Paige] Open this door immediately.

Oh, so good to see you.

What are you doing here?

I told you not to come back.

Well, I was sure you would have regretted that by now.

And you don't have to feel guilty about it, honey.

I don't feel guilty.

[Anne] I'm so glad.

And I won't feel guilty about throwing you out again.

That won't be necessary.

This is really just temporary.

Oh, no. No, this is not temporary.

You are not staying here.

[Paige] And get that damn dog off the couch.

You might at least have a little sympathy for a poor,

defenseless animal.

If you're taking care of him,

he has all my sympathy.

Then we can spend the night?

No.

Who's on this phone?

What did you do?

You picked some stranger up off the street

and bring him up here.

I beg your pardon.

Chao, bella.

-Oh no. -You look as lovely as ever.

I'm meeting a client for dinner.

I'm going to be back around nine o'clock,

and if the three of you aren't out of here,

I am calling the police.

You really want it on your records

that you filed a complaint against your own mother?

[Paige shouting] Damn right, I do.

[woman on PA] Dr. Richard Winni,

please report to admission staff.

-Hi. -Hi.

How is he?

[Mack exhales deeply]

How's Val?

Didn't life used to be simpler?

-Here you go. -Thank you.

[Val sobs]

Val I talked to the doctor.

She wants you to come back to the hospital

for some more tests.

I just get these blanks sometimes.

Yeah, I know.

[sobbing] I feel so ashamed.

Honey.

There's nothing to be ashamed of.

Yes, there is.

-Val-- -Everything I do is wrong,

It's temporary.

I wish that I could stay here.

Me too.

[doorbell ringing]

That's probably them.

-Who? -The people

I called from the hospital.

[doorbell ringing]

I'm scared.

Listen to me.

I'm going to be right by your side.

I'll be with you every step of the way.

Before you know it, you're going to be back here

with the kids. I promise you.

Gary, I want you to drive me.

You could do that for me, couldn't you?

[Val] Please.

[doorbell ringing]

Let me talk to them.

-Hi. -Hi.

She wants me to take her back, but I don't think

that's such a good idea.

-Where is she? -She's in the kitchen.

Val.

[knocking on door]

You are here. I knew it.

I guess your daughter is just about as trustworthy as you are.

-Excuse me? -No, I won't.

-About what? -Excuse you?

Listen, Val, this is really not a--

No. You've got that wrong.

You are the one who's going to listen to me.

I want you to stay away from my house.

I want you to stay away from my kids and most of all,

I want you to stay away from my husband.

Alright?

-I have no interest-- -Where did you get this dog?

Come here. Come here, pup. Come on.

It was a gift.

This is not your dog. He's mine.

Be my guest.

Don't care if I ever see the little mutt again.

Don't make me have to come back here.

[horse neighing]

Oh, Gregy.

Glad to see you took the day off.

We need to protect your health.

Actually, I'm protecting my investments.

-Nice for-- -sh**t.

-sh**t? -Yeah. Give me the pitch.

You didn't drive all the way out here...

for cookies and milk.

I expect a young man will be visiting you soon

to tell you... he's your nephew.

[horse neigh]

If he's my nephew, then he must be your son.

Well, is he your son?

I gave birth to him,

but I gave him up for adoption.

When did this happen?

Long before I was married.

[Greg] Did the old lady know about this?

How much help do you think she would have been?

Well, you should have come to me.

Look, the boy had a good life,

You know, and I can't think of any reason

for him to be here right now,

except that he has discovered

that he's related to a very wealthy man.

I wanna make it clear to you that

you have no obligation to him

because of me.

Do I know who the father is?

Why does everyone presume that this is public information?

I guess you haven't told him who his father is.

It's one question

that he won't let go unanswered,

believe me.

[Steve] So there's this big old two-story house.

So I take the towel, tie it around my neck,

you know, make it look like a cape.

And then I took a running leap.

I mean, after all, I was Superman.

I did the same thing.

I was Wonder Woman.

-Broke my ankle. -I fractured my wrist.

I was sure my mother was going to yell at me,

but she just looked at me, shook her head and...

Steven, you've been watching too much television.

She sounds great.

Yeah, both my parents were.

Luck of the draw.

Mom's not as bad as you think.

[Steve] Could have fooled me.

He upset her.

Well, gosh, she's only had a couple of days

to think about it. I don't hear my doorbell ringing.

Well, maybe she just needs a little bit--

Don't-don't say she needs time.

Okay? It sounds stupid and trite.

You know everything there is to know about your family.

You had a mother and father

and aunts and uncles and cousins.

That's not my fault.

And it's not my fault I don't know

what DNA is in my cells.

I sure as hell I'm not too thrilled

about sharing chromosomes with your mother.

You can't blame her.

It wasn't her fault. She was young. She...

[Steve] She was what?

Nothing.

[Steve] Well, like he was a, he was a...

married man, and one night stand.

I don't know. She didn't tell me.

She told you something?

She told me that she didn't have a choice.

[Steve] Have a choice?

It sounded like she was r*ped.

[doorbell ringing]

[Julie] I'll get it.

Hey, where'd you get that outfit?

-I've had it. -Wait a minute.

I've never seen this.

-Hi, Horace. -Hi.

Horace, this is my dad.

I'm pleased to meet you, Mr. Williams.

Uh-huh.

-You got a driver's license? -Dad.

Sure.

-Here. -Oh, that's sweet. Thanks.

Well, we better get going.

See you later, Mr. Williams. It was nice meeting you.

Mm-hmm.

I thought that candy would impress him.

He's a little uptight.

Tell me about it.

Damn, that was dumb.

That was really dumb.

"Do you have a driver's license?"

Oh, man. And I used to be cool.

[instrumental music]

[Mack] "A prayer for children."

"We pray for children who sneak popsicles

"before supper,

"who erase holes in math workbooks,

"who can never find their socks.

"And we pray for those who stare at photographers

"from behind barbed wire,

"who can't bound down the street

"in a new pair of sneakers,

"who never counted potatoes,

"who were born in places we wouldn't be caught dead,

"who never go to the circus,

"who live in an X-rated world.

[emotional music]

"We pray for children who bring us sticky kisses

"and fistfuls of dandelions

"who hug us in a hurry and forget their lunch money.

"And we pray for those who never get dessert.

"Who have no safe blanket to drag behind them,

"who watch their parents... watch them die.

"Who can't find any bread to steal,

"who don't have any rooms to clean up,

"whose pictures aren't on anybody's dresser,

"whose monsters are real.

"We pray for children who spend all their allowance

"before Tuesday,

"who throw tantrums in the grocery store

"and picket their food,

"who like ghost stories,

"who shoved dirty clothes under the bed

"and never rinsed out the tub.

"Who get visits from the tooth fairy,

"who don't like to be kissed in front of the carpool,

"who squirm in church or temple and scream in the phone.

"Whose tears we sometimes laugh at

"and whose smiles can make us cry.

"And we pray for those whose nightmares

"come in the daytime.

"Who will eat anything,

"who have never seen a dentist,

"who aren't spoiled by anybody,

"who go to bed hungry and cry themselves to sleep,

"who live and move but have no being.

"We pray for children

"who want to be carried in for those who must.

"For those we never give up on

"and for those who don't get a second chance.

"For those we smother,

"and for those who will grab the hand

"of anybody kind enough

to offer it."

[emotional music]

Ready?

Almost.

There. What do you think?

I think the dealer better not look too closely at it,

or he won't pay us the $25,000.

I don't know why we didn't sell it to him

in the first place.

Okay, my mistake.

I thought there was something inside.

Yeah, well, I hope the deal is still there

because I do not relish the idea

of spending another night in Coffee House.

[screaming]

I want the doll.

[man 2] Move back.

Move back.

Okay.

Easy.

[tense music]

I want the doll.

[man 2] Hand it over.

This must be a mistake.

[man 2] Yes, and you made it, Dimitri.

You see? You have obviously mistaken me

for someone else.

The doll.

Okay.

Move back by the couch.

-[man 2] Move. -Easy.

Wears the seamstress?

I have it.

Don't give up your day job.

[tense music]

-Where is it? -Where's what?

[man 2] I am not playing 20 questions.

Get that hand up.

[man 2] Get that hand up.

There was a small container the size of my thumbnail

in the doll.

You produce it now,

or I'm going to start sh**ting his fingers off one at a time.

There was no container.

When I finished with him I start with you.

[Anne whimpering]

[Paige] I told you if you weren't out of here,

I was going to bring the...

You two, hold it right now.

[dog bark]

Val.

I don't know how I got here.

[dramatic music]

[rock music playing]

I didn't know your dad was going to be here.

God, I didn't either.

Hey, it's okay.

It's not like he's keeping us from robbing a bank or anything.

Let's enjoy the dance.

[rock music continues]

Thank you.

Would it help you to know

that Horace has a 3.0 grade point average?

-He cheats on his exams? -Oh, Frank.

I'm just kidding.

Don't you know when I'm kidding?

[Charlotte] He has a younger sister

in Julie's class.

He has a part time job at a nursery.

-He has-- -Nursery?

He wants to have kids?

A tree nursery, Frank.

[Frank chuckles]

Come here a minute.

I can't, see, I want...

Frank.

[rock music continues]

Charlotte I can't see from here.

Frank, there are four other chaperones

and six teachers keeping law and order.

What are you afraid of?

What am I afraid of? You have to ask?

I guess so.

Sometimes... it's hard to get your attention.

[Karen] Mack.

-Michael. -[Michael] Hi.

Hi.

Hope you don't mind.

[Karen] What?

I need a place to stay tonight.

I noticed the suitcase.

Hey, Linda and I broke up.

I'm sorry... I mean, I'm...

sorry if you're unhappy.

I'm unhappy.

I'm relieved,

confused, I'm everything.

I don't know if Linda was the best thing

that happened to me or the worst.

What is the best thing?

I think you know what.

No.

Well, I found another place to stay,

but I can't move in till tomorrow.

Aren't you going to keep your condo?

I can't kick Linda out.

Why not?

She's really upset right now.

I don't think she has much money.

Well, that may be Michael, but you...

you have to learn to take care of yourself.

Well, I'm fine.

Michael. Look, I don't want to criticize your decision,

but... I

[thinking] will never criticize him again.

I will be happy with whatever he does from here on out.

I swear.

I'm sorry.

I'm...

I understand.

My old room?

Yep.

Sure.

[motorcycles revving]

[Nick] Let's get out of here.

They won't be able to hold them very long.

What could have been in the container?

I don't know, but it must be worth $60,000.

But there was no container. I looked.

It must be at Paige's.

Maybe the dog kicked it under a chair.

I looked under the chairs. I looked into the couch.

I looked in the kitchen. If it was there,

I would have found it.

Look, maybe they took it out before we got the dog.

Where does the crazy woman live?

-Who? -God.

The woman who came by today.

-Val? -Yes, Val.

Where does she live?

She's staying at Garry's. Why?

Have you ever seen a puppy eat?

[Nick] They'll eat anything.

They were in here.

There they are.

[dog bark]

Which one is yours?

I don't know.

[Anne] They all look the same.

-Next on Knots Landing... -Do you have the mutt?

No.

But we know where it is.

Judge Percal filed a complaint to the State Bar against me?

I thought you knew.

He wants to get you disbarred.

Are you seeing someone else?

I go out with other men, if that's what you're asking.

I've been getting all serious out here by myself, huh?

[Greg] If you had gone through the proper channels

instead of doing an end run

trying to score some brownie points,

you would have found that out and not wasted my time.
