"Eddie, now is not the time." "We need to find the doctor." "And keeping us in the dark just so you can cover your own hide?" "It's a good thing one of the nurses who works here is married to one of my guys and called us, did the right thing, you coward, little punk!" "Look, Mr. Landers, I-I know we're all upset, okay, but if you could please, just take a breath." "I have an update." "Okay, these are Maggie's parents." "I'm Eddie Landers, Chief of Police." "This is my wife Brenda." "It appears your daughter has an ectopic pregnancy." "What is that?" "It means the pregnancy took in her fallopian tube instead of in the uterus." " You can fix it, right?" " She's hemorrhaging, so we need to operate immediately, and it's a pretty long and invasive surgery." "Until we see how much damage there is, she's at risk." "How much risk?" "Life-threatening." "Oh, my God." "My baby." "Can we go see her?" "We're prepping her now for the O.R., but, uh, Sally can take you back." "Why didn't you tell Maggie's parents the truth, that you're not the father?" "'Cause it's not my story to tell." "It's Maggie's." "But she's in surgery, fighting for her life." "And she wouldn't want her parents, especially her dad, to know she was involved with Simon." "I promised her." "Do you not understand what people will think of you?" "I know." "But it's not the truth." "I can't stop the rumors, Carrie." "But you can." "I mean, all you have to do is be honest." "How are we supposed to be together if everyone thinks you knocked up my best friend?" "It's not about us right now." "It's about Maggie, and she needs us." "But what will people think?" "I don't give a damn what people think, and neither should you." "What took you so long?" "I've been playing a basketball game." "We won, by the way." "I know." "I was watching." "So you know I did great with eight rebounds." "Did you get the picture or not?" "I did, and thank you." "So no one saw it." "What a relief." "Well... not exactly."

"I need to hear exactly what was said." "I think Donna said something about how they were small but very perky." "Donna was there in the locker room?" "She said my boobs were perky?" "And then they were like, "maybe it was the Jens."" "So my name never came up?" "Never." "Why?" "What do you mean?" "Well... do people not think I could have perky boobs?" "Mouse, don't go there."

"Well, let's just say you might see the word "diminutive" again, but this time in reference to you and one of your body parts." "But that's a lie." "Like what you said to "Page Six"?" "Doesn't feel so good, does it?" "They can't print stuff about me that isn't true." "Sure they can." "They called you a "Wunderkind," didn't they?" "(Laughs) (Clink)" "Andy heard you were being sought after by several papers, and he wants it to stop." "How did he know?" "He has eyes everywhere." "That's what makes him so..." "Scary?" "Is he angry?" "Andy's giving you a raise... and a promotion..." "to features editor!" "(Laughs)" "Oh, my God." "(Clink)" "This is the best night of my life." "(Kisses)" "(Woman) Quiet down, everyone." "(Microphone feedback whines)" "Quiet down." "We have a Paris winner." "Please let it be me, please let it be moi." "Mademoiselle Carrie Bradshaw, grab your chapeau and head to your waiting limo. (Applause)" "You are leaving for Paris anon." "She isn't here!" "Why isn't she here?" "Carrie Bradshaw?" "Samantha, you should go." "We're all here because of you." "Really?" "Where are you, darling?" "(Singsongy) Carrie Bradshaw!" "She's right here!" "Here she is!" "I'm Carrie!" "Carrie Bradshaw!" "Any word?" "(Woman over P.A.) Dr. Kim, you have a call on line 7." "Dr. Kim, you have a call on line 7." "(Elevatorbelldings,doorsopen )" "Look..." "I know people will hate me... and that..." "I'm basically a pariah." "But I don't care." "The only thing I care about is that you know the truth." "The rumors, the gossip..." "it's not real." "That's just noise." "It was such a different perspective from Weaver's, where perception was everything." "But people will always be looking at you... and judging." "I know." "I can handle it." "Question is... can you?" "Well?" "She made it through surgery." "We couldn't save the fallopian tube, but she's alive." "Well, what does that mean?" "It means a future pregnancy will be a lot more difficult." " God." "Does she know?" " Not yet." "Well, can we see her?" "She'll be groggy, but yes." " Okay, where are her parents?" " They're talking to the surgical team now, so you guys can head in." "(Woman speaking indistinctly over P.A.)" "You comin'?" "Um... yeah." "I just have to do this one thing first." "I'll meet you in there." "(Woman speaking indistinctly over P.A.)" "(Beeping)" "(Line rings, click)" "(Larissa)" " Hello?" " Larissa." "It's me." "Darling!" "You should not have left." " You won the trip to Paris." " I did?" "Samantha took it and went with the busboy. (Huffs)" "Good for her..." "and Alvaro. (Chuckles)" "♪" "I've always wanted to go to Paris." "Oh, someday, mon amie." "Someday." "Um, well, I-I know you're busy, but I just wanted to know if Tristan Cassidy is still there." "I need to talk to him." "Yeah, he's..." "He's right here, my love." "♪" "I'm sorry." "What is this all about?" "Oh, you're gonna wanna chat with this one." "She's got Los of dirt." "♪" "Hello?" "Hi." "Uh... this is the girl who told you about Adam Weaver and his penis size." "Oh, right, Katja." "Right." "Katja." "Um... well, the thing is, that isn't really true..." "About his manhood." "And I don't think it would be fair to have a lie out there, even though it wouldn't kill Weaver to have a dose of his own medicine." "Oh, it's too late, kiddo." "I already called it in." "And if I don't print that, I've got nothing." "But it's not true." "Well, it's not untrue." "Yes, it is." "That's what "not true" means." "What if I were to give you something else?" "Like what?" "Like the name of Weaver's diminutive, suburban poseur." "You know who it is?" "Yeah." "It's me." "Carrie Bradshaw." "I thought your name was Katja." "Well, I lied." "Well, how do I know you're telling the truth, then?" "Didn't you see how tiny I am?" "That's a good point." "All right, I'm gonna go with it." "Okay." "Good." "But I gotta ask you, why the hell are you giving yourself up?" "At the end of the day, it's just words." "I had to give myself up, but it was worth it to know I didn't sell someone else out to save my own skin." "Hi." "Hi." "I hope it's okay that I'm here." "It's more than okay." "I'm so sorry, Mags." "I'm here for you, always." "Whatever you need." "Right now I would..." "just love it if you guys would sit here with me." "(Indistinct conversations)" "Hello, boys." "(Door bells jingle)" "(Fabric flaps)" "Whoa." "That's right." "They're mine." "(Door bells jingle)" "That's my girl." "(Laughter) Look at you, dude." "There are so many soirees now in the city." "It's hard to keep up." "I know." "Every week a different charity event." "They wrote about one last night where someone won a trip to Paris." "Isn't that gauche?" "(Newspaper thuds)" "These events should be to give back, not to take." "I see what you mean." "('Til Tuesday's "Voices Carry" playing)" "Do you?" "♪ I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind ♪" "♪ but I'm frightened of the things I might find ♪" "♪ Oh, there must be something he's thinking of ♪" "♪ to tear him away the doctor told me if you hadn't brought her here, she might have died." "So I am grateful." "But from now on..." "You stay away from her." "I'm telling you, son, do not test me, or so help me, you will find yourself in a world of hurt."
