Katie is looking for Henry at the Lakeview Lounge. She asks the bartender if he's seen him. "Henry? Sure, earlier today, but he'll stop back in. Do you want me to leave him a message?" offers the bartender. "Uh, yeah, will you tell him that his wife -- hmm, never mind, sorry, nothing. Thanks," says Katie. She runs into Mike and they make polite conversation. Mike asks her if she wants to get some coffee and she turns him down. "Uh, oh -- no, I can't. I'm actually on my way over to the country club. I'm trying to do a tie-in with the gym," she says. "That's a good idea," says Mike. "That was Henry's. He could sell ice to Eskimos," smiles Katie. They say their good-byes and Katie runs into Henry on her way out. "Henry, hi!" says Katie. "Kathryn," says Henry, noticing Mike at the bar. Katie tells him she's been looking for him, and Henry asks her why. "I'm heading over to the country club to talk about that tie-in. You know, your idea?" says Katie. "Well, you don't want to keep Mike waiting," says Henry. "Um, no, I just told you, I was on my way out," says Katie. "Really? Well, don't let me keep you, okay?" says Henry, trying to step aside. "Wait, Henry, can't -- can't we at least talk? Please?" begs Katie. "Why, what do you want to talk about?" snaps Henry. "I don't know. How are you? What are you doing? Where are you living?" asks Katie. "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Take care of yourself. Good luck on the meeting," says Henry, walking away from Katie and sitting down at the bar. Mike smacks him and says, "You are such a jerk."
"I'm a jerk?! You just knocked me off my barstool!" says Henry indignantly. "Well, I'm trying to wake you up," says Mike. "You get an alarm clock for that, Mike. Or sex-starved brunettes. Speaking of which, I have an appointment with a very hungry young lady, okay, as we speak," says Henry. "There's no young lady. And if there is, you're a bigger idiot than I thought you were. You love Katie," says Mike. "Yeah, and she loves you," replies Henry. "She used to love me. And I used to love her," clarifies Mike. "Now who's the fool now, hmm?" asks Henry. "Look, what we had is over. It didn't work out. But you two have a decent shot if you would get over yourself and forgive her," scolds Mike. "I'm sorry. No can do," says Henry. Mike asks him why and he answers, "Because, Mike -- somewhere along the way to falling in love with her, I realized what I wanted. I wanted her to look at me the way she still looks at you. And since there is no chance of that happening..." "Well, there is. Henry, I have seen her look at you. She loves you," insists Mike. "Yes, she does. But not enough," says Henry. "We'll see about that," responds Mike.
