Transcripts from TVMegasite Jack: Listen, I'm gonna head out and get ready for the wedding, okay? Hal: Okay. Henry: Hey, hey, hey, who's getting married? Jack: Mike and Katie. Henry: What? Jack: Yeah. Henry: What? Hey, Hal -- Hal, you've got to cut me a little slack here! Hal: Why? Henry: I've gotta go see Katie. Jack: Hey, I'm gonna have my cell on me. Do me a favor, call me as soon as the rest of my forensics report comes in? Hal: Will do. Give mike and Katie my best. Jack: You got it. Hal: I have a string of witnesses who say that you and Emily have been spending a lot of time at the bar at the Lakeview. I want to know what you were talking about. Henry: Normal bar room banter, you know? Vodka versus gin, olives versus a twist. I don't really -- I don't remember what else. Hal: Emily's mom remembers you telling Emily to get out of town. Henry: Yeah, probably. I told her many times to get away from Paul. Now, it is -- it is not illegal to give good advice, is it, Hal? Hal: I wish she'd taken it. Henry: I wish she had, too. I -- we were -- we were friends, and I was there when nobody else was. And I think -- I bet that is what messed her up so much is that there was nobody out there who cared enough to help her. But if I had known anything about this Dusty thing, Hal, I swear to you, I would have stopped her right then and there. Hal: All right, that'll do for now. But if I find out you're holding out on me -- Henry: I know, I know. You'll lock me up and throw away the key. Can I go now? Hal: Yes. Thanks for your help. Henry: Thank you, lieutenant. [ Henry sighs ]
Henry: Sorry I didn't come sooner. Emily: I thought you'd be the first one in line, given how much you want your money. Henry: Em, that is not the only reason that I'm here. It's not even the main reason that I'm here. I'm -- I wanted to see how you were doing. Emily: Not so good, Henry. Henry: Well, you're gonna do better. You know, you -- you have to do better. You are the only person in this town who can match me drink for drink. Hal: Well, look who's here. Henry: What, are you tailing me, lieutenant? What? Hal: I just wanted to make certain you're not trying to convince her to keep her mouth shut about you. Henry: I told you, I -- I have nothing to hide. Emily: What are you doing? What are you trying to pin on him, Hal? Hal: I need you to be honest with me, Emily. How involved was Henry in your plan to kidnap Dusty?
Emily: Henry -- Henry had absolutely nothing to do with Dusty's disappearance. He didn't help me. I did it all on my own. Hal: That's a whole lot of damage for one person to pull off. Emily: Well, maybe that's why it didn't work out so well. I was afraid to tell anyone, really -- even Henry. Henry: See, see? And maybe next time, you'll take my word for it. Hal: Next time, I'll take your word -- [ Pager beeps ] I have to call the station. I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere. Henry: Thank you for keeping me out of this. Emily: That's not all I'm gonna do. I can get you your money. Henry: Don't toy with me, Emily. Emily: I'm not. It's in storage at the Lakeview. All you need is the claim check. When I get out of here, Henry, it's yours. Henry: You really sound like you're serious this time. Emily: It's the least I can do for my one remaining friend.
[ Knock at door ] Henry: Oh, hi. Katie: Hi. Henry: Thank goodness. Thank goodness you're still here. I practically ran the whole way here. Katie: Whoa, breathe, relax. Henry: I'm breathing, I'm breathing. I just need to get to the gym more often. [ Henry laughs ] Is it -- is it true that you're getting married tonight? Katie: Yeah. Henry: Congratulations. Oh, congratulations. Katie: Thank you. So you'll be there? Henry: What do you mean? I've been -- I've been in every one of your marriages. What are you talking -- ? I was even a major player in one of them, I believe. Do you remember that one? Katie: Of course I remember. In fact, you promised me that you're okay with this. Henry: Okay? I'm -- I couldn't be happier. This is what you wanted, and this is what you deserved, and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
