"I told you to lay off that stuff." "Oh, what do you want, Martin?" "I hear you haven't been to the office in a few days." "Why?" "I'm talking to you." "So, talk." "You were supposed to take care of a shipment going to New York, you didn't, now I'm out a couple of thousand dollars." "Are you listening to me?" "No, of course not." "You drink too damn much!" "(glass shattering)" "Don't start on me, Martin!" "It's because of your drinking that I'm in this chair." "I don't have to remind you of that, do I?" "Martin, I have a headache this big with your name on it." "The hell with your headache." "Look, you either straighten up and take care of business," "Are you threatening me, Martin?" "Yes, I'm threatening you." "May I just remind you, I married you, I gave you everything, you never had a..." "Yes, yes, yes, yes, Martin!" "And whatever happened to us?" "We were happy for a while." "(scoffs) Stop it." "And I need you, now more than ever." "I hate running the business, you keep forcing me to do it." "Why, because it cuts into your style?" "And I hate your being suspicious, always accusing me of running around, spying on me!" "Well, you do see other men." "I have my own life to lead!" "You do remember, Andrea, what we did?" "I didn't have your kind of hate for my wife." "But, you had enough inside you for both of us." "(suspenseful music)" "(Woman yelling)" "(screaming)" "It worked, it worked, it worked." "' Stop it!" "Alright, then what is all this talk about," ""I have my own life to lead?"" "No, we're in this thing together to the end, you and I." "Together, you understand?" "We're married, very married." "And you have an obligation to me." "(Slap) And you have one to me!" "One which you are incapable of fulfilling." "Don't tell me, Tony's not here." "Where is Prince Charming?" "Tony is taking a shower." "Hm, how cozy." "Playing doctor?" "I see you're a regular fixture around here." "I'll tell Tony you're here." "Oh, please, don't bother." "I'm sure you must have something to do, somewhere to go?" "I was just leaving, anyway." "Good." "Bye!" "Hey, Sally, throw me a towel." "I think there's one out there on the chair." "Excuse me for not shaking your hand." "It's perfectly alright." "The view from here is marvelous." "Where's Sally?" "Oh, she left." "Had a Scout meeting." "It's Mumms." "It's too rich for me." "Oh, come on." "This girl, serious?" "We're close friends." "I see." "Kissing cousins." "Look, you didn't come here to talk about her, did you?" "I certainly didn't." "I came to see you." "It's been a week, how about our deal?" "These things take time." "Such an impatient little boy." "You playing with me?" "I thought you were a woman of action." "I wasn't bluffing." "Action is what we're talking about." "It's been a week, I haven't seen any." "Look, all I have to do is pick up that phone," "And dial." "You won't forget our arrangement?" "I won't forget." "(phone dialing)" "Mike Abrams, please." "Mrs. Hilliard." "Hello, Mike?" "Andrea." "Mike, I found a singer with one hell of a voice." "I want him under contract." "He's polished, professional."

"If I had all her money, and all her looks." "Hey, hey, hey, come on." "Something tells me I better take you home, huh?" "You Will?" "(0K3)'" "Let's go." "(laughing)" "Bye, Charlie." "What do they see in him?" "Something they don't see in you, Charlie." "(laughing) Wee!" "Hey, where's your keys, huh?" "I refuse to be raped." "Here." "(laughing)" "(keys jingling)" "(laughing)" "Ah." "(laughing)" "Yeah." "Mm, yeah." "(laughing)" "Yeah. (Laughing)" "Weee." "Hey, where's your room, huh?" "Up there. (Laughing)" "Ah." "Hey, go straight to bed, huh?" "Mm, would you like to tuck me in?" "(Laughing)" "(Tony laughing)" "No, I guess you wouldn't." "(laughing)" "Ciao, Tony." "Ciao." "(Fran laughing)" "Hi." "I remember you at Dad's funeral." "Yeah, Tony Trelos." "Helayne." "I brought home a very drunk Fran." "(laughs) Oh, I see." "Would you like a cup of coffee?" "No, thank you." "Here's your keys." "Her car is at the parking lot." "She'll have to go down to pick it up tomorrow." "I Will." "Is it any good?" "(laughs) So-so." "Well, I better be going." "Good night." "Good night." "(phone dialing)" "Good morning, Helayne?" "Yeah, this is Tony Trelos." "How's Fran?" "(laughing)" "Hey, did you finish the book?" "That means you're free, then, huh?" "Listen, I know where there are two of the sweetest horses you've ever seen." "You wanna go riding?" "Okay, I'll pick you up in 15 minutes." "Yeah." "Okay, goodbye."

"Hey, wait a minute, young lady." "I wanna talk to you." " Come on." " I'm in a hurry!" "Oh, you've been in a hurry for a whole week now." "Come on, sit down, I wanna talk to you." "(Helayne giggling)" "Tell me what you've been up to." "Oh, Fran, he's wonderful." "We just had so much fun." "You found yourself a young man." "Hey, look, I've gotta go and change." "Tony will be here soon." "Tony?" "I'm making dinner for him tonight." "You've been seeing Tony?" "That's right." "I think he is the most fascinating man I've ever met." "And you've met so many." "(laughing)" "You know, he's different." "And, he's so sweet." "Tony?" "Sweet?" "(scoffs) He must want something." "What do you mean?" "Look, honey, you're young." "Very young and inexperienced." "Take it from an old crow who's been around." "Don't take him seriously." "Why not?" "Well, what do you know about Tony." "What he told me." "Sure, sure, what he told you." "Look, honey, he's okay as long as it's strictly for laughs." "But do you really know what he's all about?" "Hey, look." "All I have to know about him is that I like him very much." "Do you know about Tony and Andrea?" "What do you mean?" "Oh, don't tell me you haven't guessed by now." "I haven't wanted to think about it." "But you must have known something was going on, didn't you?" "With Tony popping in and sneaking out all the time?" "Alright, I know." "But that was his past." "Honey, it's very much in his future." "Hey, Fran, look, don't spoil this." "This means too much to me." "Well, don't go into this with your eyes closed." "I won't." "I don't want you to be hurt." "I know, I won't be." "You sure?" "I've never been so sure of anything in my life." "(laughing) Okay, you're a big girl now." "Well, I guess there's no sense in my sitting around here doing nothing." "I have a husband waiting home for me somewhere." "(Helayne giggles)" "I'm going to find him." "I wish you luck." "Oh, save the luck for yourself, honey." "You're gonna need a lot of it with Tony." "I'm gonna miss all this, and you." "What do you mean?" "You know." "I've gotta start thinking about going back." "Helayne, don't go." "Well, I can't stay here." "With Andrea it wouldn't work." "I really don't have any ties here." "What about us?" "" Us?"" "Maybe first you would like to tell me about Andrea and you." "You know?" "It's fairly obvious." "That's all over." "I wish I could believe you." "It was just an arrangement, strictly business." "With a little loving thrown in?" "I told you, that's all over now." "She doesn't matter to me." "Is it over, Tony?" "I swear." "And what about her?" "I don't care." "You know, I've seen her destroy people." "She hated my father so." "Sometimes, I'm even afraid of her." "She won't destroy us." "That's right, us." "You and me." "That sounds good." "It is good." "Helayne, you're all I've thought about since the moment I laid eyes on you." "There's so much about me you don't know." "I know enough." "Well, then, know this." "Until I met you, I never thought I could feel this way." "It's like, wow, a whole new world to me." "Tony, I love you." "I love you." "I never thought I'd say those words and mean it, but I do." "I really do." "We can get married, Helayne." "When?" "Anytime you say, beautiful." "Tonight." "_ okay" "We'll go after my last show." "Money isn't everything." "You gotta be out of your skull!" "Well, I've auctioned off everything I own for money." "Well, you get ready to auction those off, call me." "You couldn't afford them." "What are you doing?" "I'm leaving baby." "I don't need this place anymore." "I've called you but you don't seem to be home." "Yeah, what did you want?" "Tony, I've gotta talk to you." "Yeah, what about?" "Us." ""Us?"" "There's trouble, Tony." "What kind of trouble?" "Do I have to spell it out for you?" "(whimpers)" "You can't be serious." "Did you check with the doctor?" "Of course." "What am I gonna do?" "Well, you know what to do, baby, huh?" "It's legal now, just tell them you were raped, that's all." "(sobbing) What kind of a thing is that to tell me?" "Look, what the hell do you want me to say?" "It's okay, baby, you made a mistake, huh?" "You just made a mistake." "(sobbing) Is that all you've got to say?" "Sally, find yourself a good doctor." "I'll help you with some money." "(crying) I don't need your money!" "Everything's gonna be alright, huh?" "I have to go away." "Where to?" "On a trip." "When are you coming back?" "(sobbing)" "Right away." "Will you call me?" "Yeah, as soon as I get back." "Call me, Tony!" "Yeah." "(crying)" "Mrs. Trelos." "Mrs. Tony Trelos." "(laughing)" "I love my new name." "Mm." "Mm." "Sweet of Fran, giving us champagne." "(laughing) There's a bottle missing from the case." "(laughing) Oh." "Wonder where it could be, huh?" "(glass clinking)" "(slow suspenseful music)" "(match striking)" "Happy?" "Mhm." "(Sting)'" "_ Hey" "Hey, that's not a regular cigarette, huh?" "(giggling) I know." "What else did they teach you in those fancy schools, hm?" "You do love me, don't you, Tony?" "(slow suspenseful music)" "(birds chirping)" "Hello, Andrea." "Tony?" "Is that you?" "What are you doing here?" "Where's Helayne?" "_ Sleeping," "Mother." "You didn't." "We were married last night in Tijuana." "[Andrea] Why?" "Why not?" "You certainly didn't waste any time, did you?" "Look, it's not what you think it is." "No, of course not." "I suppose you're gonna tell me you love her." "You won't believe it, but it's true." "I imagine it must have been pretty easy to make her fall for you." "I told you you wouldn't believe it." "You're damn right, I don't." "I know you." "All you're interested in is the money." "(laughs) Only now, Tony, there isn't any money." "What do you mean?" "I mean you blew it!" "There's a stipulation in the will forbidding her to marry until she's 25." "In the event she marries before then, she loses everything." "I get it all." "I'll take care of her myself." "Would you mind telling me how?" "Well, there's the record." "When it's released, I'll go from there." "If, if, if it's released!" "You see, Tony?" "I'm still the dealer." "Well, then you're dealing to an empty table, baby, 'cause I'll make it on my own." "(laughing) Don't make me laugh!" "I'll tell Helayne about us!" "Save your breath, she already knows." "" Tony!"" "Tony, Tony, it doesn't have to change between us." "It's over, Andrea." "While I was away, Tony, I did a lot of thinking." "It's no use." "Tony, you know I do feel something for you." "It's too late." "No, it's not!" "Andrea, go to sleep, huh, baby?" "Sleep it off." "Helayne and I are gonna be gone tomorrow, anyway." "I won't let you go." "Tony, you can still take care of little orphan Annie, and have me, and everything." "It's too late, Andrea." "A big, strong man like you, you ought to be able to take care of two women simultaneously." "Remember, Tony, I have the house and all the money." "Everything." "I don't need you anymore." "You expect Helyane to live on your salary?" "She's used to having money." "She'll tire of you, mister, you just wait." "You just wait!" "I'll chance it!" "(Yelling) Tony, I won't let you go!" "Tony!" "Tony!" "Tony, you said you liked me, you told me so." "Please." "I'm not interested." "It was good enough before!" "Before, the price was right." "(Slap) Ugh!" "Cool it, baby!" "Tony. (Sobbing)" "You'll find somebody else," "I'm just not on the market anymore." "Come here!" "I don't jump when you snap your fingers, anymore." "" Tony!"" "(dramatic music)" "(yelling)" "Tony, I can't let you go!" "(screaming hysterically) I killed Helayne's mother!" "I let Martin die!" "(sobbing)" "And I'll kill you before I let you out of my life!" "Ow!" "(yelling)" "(screaming)" "(Splat)" "(Helayne sobbing)" "Oh my god!" "(sobbing)" "(seagulls squawking)" "(waves crashing)" "I found her about 6 o'clock this morning." "A bunch of kids skindiving." "Yeah, beautiful way to start the day." "Mhm." "Mhm." "No, no." "Uh uh." "Yeah, yeah, we got positive ID." "Mhm." "Yeah, the stepdaughter and the brand new son-in-law." "They didn't know she was home." "She was out of town, they were down in Mexico getting married." "Yeah." "It checks out." "Mhm." "Yeah." "Well." "Well, the coroner says that she's loaded with barbiturates and alcohol." "It could be, Ed." "Mhm." "Well, I found plenty of little reds in her medicine chest." "And there's plenty of booze around the place." "Mhm." "Well, here's how I see it." "She came home, yeah, she came home, had a few drinks too many, took a few pills, likewise, too many, wandered out to the point, slipped and fell over." "No, I can't be sure she slipped." "Will you cut the comedy, Ed?" "You know I didn't find any banana peels." "Yeah." "Suicide?" "No, no, no." "No, nothing points to it." "Ed, Ed, Ed." "It's routine." "It was an accident." "Look, they're bringing her out now." "I'll see you in about 20 minutes." "Okay, what?" "Lunch?" "Are you kidding?" "I'm on a diet." "I think it's a good idea the two of you taking this trip." "It'll do you both good." "Why did it have to happen?" "If only she'd call me to pick her up at the airport." "Don't blame yourself, Fran." "I don't know what I'm gonna do with myself without her." "Look, talking about it's not gonna help anybody, huh?" "(phone ringing)" "I'll get it." "Hello?" "What do you want?" "No, I can't." "I'm leaving on a trip." "Alright, I'll see you in 15 minutes." "Who was that?" "I gotta leave, baby." "But you've got a plane to catch." "Fran, take Helayne to the airport." "Take a cab." "I'll meet you there, okay?" "[Fran] Okay." "Hey, where are you going?" "I'll see you at the airport, huh, baby?" "I love you."
