"How many do you have?" "Not as many as I used to." "I had to make some cutbacks." "Yeah, the economy has hit us all." "So... what kind of boyfriends can afford things like this?"

"Yeah. okay, well... don't take this the wrong way, but that's not exactly from the versace virgin line." "I don't have to do anything." "They just have to think I might." "Uh-huh, and how long do you think that will last?" "Till 10:00, 11:00 on the weekends." "Just kidding." "It was a joke." "Funny." "Are you all right?" "What happened to your shirt?" "Why don't you ask your friend?" "The one you hired to assault me." "You were assaulted?" "He, uh... grabbed me by the throat, threw me to the ground and told me to "let go."" "Your message came through loud and clear." "I had nothing to do with that." "Please." "Who else would have done it?" "I don't know." "But I swear to you,we may have our differences,but I would never hire someone to attack you." "You have to believe me." "I do." "Forgive me." "I should've known you could never hurt me." "I'll stay." "What?" "Once I've unpacked,I'll bring you my shirt so you can mend it." "We're just running to the store,ana.We'll be back in a bit." "Okay.I'll sweep the porch while you're gone." "And if you don't mind,will you make sure juanita and celia do their chores,too?" "Sure thing." "I got the rest,babe." "All right,I'll see you inside." "oh,you're bk." "Oh,my god." "Ana,the houses so clean." "Just wanted to do my part." "Well,how did you get everything down so quickly?" "we finished upstairs,ana.Anything else you need done?" "They wanted to hang out,but I had chores to do,so they insisted on helping me." "Aren't ty sweet?" "Hey,um,I'm not bragging and I don't recommend it, but you could so eat out of your downstairs toilet." "Okay,boys,thanks for your hard work,but maybe it's time to go home and take a shower... preferably a cold one." "Bye,preston." "I'm porter." "I'm preston." "Oh,you can call me whatever you want." "All right." "Mommy,it was so cool." "Ana got the boys to do my chores,too." "Did she?" "I wanna learn how to make boys do stuff." "Can you teach me?" "Uh,okay,juanita,go to your room." "And don't come out until you're 18." "Is something wrong?" "Ana,the whole point of chores is that you do them." "You don't bat your eyes and call rent-a-horny-kid." "The house is clean." "What do you care how it got that way?" "I care about the message it sends to my little girls, and I'm starting to care a little bit about your tone." "Oh,I'm sorry." "How do you like your housekeepers to speak to you?" "and the teenager has finally arrived." "Ana,listen." "We want you to be part of this family." "We will love you and support you and take care of you, but in exchange,you will show us a little bit of respect and obey our rules, which means doing your own chores,no boys in the house and no more gifts from men." "I get it now." "You're jealous." "Of what?" "Of me." "You're not young anymore.You can't get guys to do things for you, and that drives you crazy." "you wanna see crazy?" "Make one more statement like that,and I am throwing your ass out on the street." "You care to test me?" "ana?" "What's wrong?" "I don't know what I did." "She wants to kick me out." "so she had a couple boys come over and do her chores." "You've been doing stuff like that your whole life." "That's not the point!" "You didn't hear the way she talked to me!" "I don't care!" "You don't tell a kid who's been bounced around her whole life that you're gonna throw her out on the street!" "I didn't tell her that!" "I just... kind of threatened to." "Bottom line--she is my niece,and she is not going anywhere." "You're the adult,gaby.Start acting like it." "I know this looks bad,but we did what we did for a good reason." "Ma'am,you can't break into a person's house for any reason." "Uh,what if there's a baby inside and there's a fire?" "see?" "Everything's not all cut and dry,is it,rookie?" "Roberta,don't piss him off." "You can't take a club to the head like you used to." "Okay,I just got off the phone with heller's secretary." "David dash was definitely a patient there." "well,that's why we couldn't make the match." "He changed his last name." "Mm-hmm,and get this." "He's the same guy whose wi and daughter were killed in that car crash up on canterbury road." "canterbury road!" "I remember that accident." "My neighbors mike and susan were in the car that hit 'em." "Oh,wait.Now wait.Okay,that's weird." "I mean,why would dave move onto the same street as the people who killed his family?" "The doctor hasour results.He'll be here in a minute." "Do you know what they are?" "You'll need to talk to the doctor about that." "Come on.I know you know." "It's cancer again.Am I right?" "I honestly don't know.Now please,he'll just be a moment." "If it's cancer,and I find out you knew,I won't be dying alone." "Hello,lynette." "Well,I'm glad you came in we got the results back,and the test did pick something up." "So it is the cancer." "oh,god,I can't go through this again!" "No,no,no.It's nothing like that." "You're pregnant." "Excuse me?" "About six weeks or so." "Are you sure it's not cancer?" "okay,susan." "But when you're out on the boat,make sure you put on sunscreen." "And on your feet,too." "Remember our trip to mexico?" "okay,I'll talk to you guys later." "Everything's fine." "I don't know what I was worried about." "Are you sure you wanna do this?" "Do what?" "Go to vegas,get married." "I mean,it is a whole weekend away from susan." "katherine,I told you.I just wanted to make sure M.J.Was okay." "why don't you just admit it?" "You're still hung up on her." "Oh,for god sake,are we gonna do this again?" "All I know is,it's our wedding day,and you were in a crappy mood until you talked to your ex-wife." "Katherine,I wouldn't be sitting here if I didn't want to marry you." "Okay?" "Really?" "Really." "Do I need to shout it out in the airport?" "You wouldn't do that." "Oh,I will." "I'll--I'll do whatever I need t to prove my love!" "no,it's okay!" "You convinced me." "I am dying for a cappuccino." "You want one?" "yeah,I do." "You said it."I do."" "can't take it back now." "should be allowed to just... walk away." "I know some people will wonder,why didn't I just kill susan?" "But what good would that have done?" "She'd be dead.There'd be no...suffering." "And to those of you who hate me because I took the life of an innocent,young boy,I say... katherine!" "Excuse me.That woman I was with?" "Tell her I had to go.It's an emergency." "oh,uh,your friend asked me to tell you he had to leave." "What?" "He said to say he's sorry." "what were you thinking?" "First,tell me if it worked,then I'll tell you what I was thinking." "Don't be glib." "Did you hire someone to attack orson?" "Yes." "Are you insane?" "Your thug tried to strangle him." "If he had tried to strangle him,he'd be dead." "Look,orson had the upper hand in this divorce.We needed to regain it." "Not by resorting to physical violence." "I would never have given my permission for that." "That's why I didn't ask you." "W-what's your beef here,bree?" "My beef is that from the minute I walked into this office, you have pulled me deeper and deeper into your moral cesspool." "That is not why I hired you." "Please.That is exactly why you hired me." "Facet.You were tired of being a good girl." "You knew it was time to play dirty." "I wanted to protect what was mine." "You have turned into someone I don't recognize." "And you've loved every minute of it." "No,I haven'T." "Yes,you have!" "And so have I." "Because the truth is,I think you're the most fascinating woman that I have ever met." "What?" "Karl...if I have not been clear about how I feel about you," "I apologize for any ambiguity." "Understand this-- I detest you." "No,you don'T." "I can see it in your eyes." "You want me to walk over there and pull you up against me and kiss you until your knees buckle." "You're fired." "Good.That keeps this from being a breach of ethics." "my knees haven't buckled yet." "* she swallowed the spider to catch the fly *" "* I don't know why she swa-- * oh,it's your daddy.hey,mike." "Hey,where are you?" "Are you with dave?" "Uh,yeah.We are in the car,singing."

"He's the husband of the woman we killed in the accident." "Oh,my god." "Don't react!" "problem?" "that sucks." "How could they cancel your flight?" "All right,you guys are in danger.Just get away from him." "Go to a gas station,a store...anyplace there's people." "I'm on my way." "Right." "So how long do you think you'll be delayed?" "Uh,I'm a half-hour from the lake.I'm calling the cops right now." "Just get away from him.Get out of that car and get away from dave." "And you call me the second you do."
