In a continuation of yesterday's show, Henry and Roseanna are at Java and she has just handed him the pen with Mike's fingerprints.  Henry is holding it carefully in a handkerchief and staring at it intently.  Roseanna asks him how long it's been since she gave it to him.  "A minute?" he guesses.  "And 35 seconds," adds Roseanna.  "I told you to get it fingerprinted, now go!"  Henry tells her that he's not sure why they want to prove Carly and Mike were "intimately entangled the night before her wedding."  "Yours is not to reason why, dear, yours is to shut up and do!" says Roseanna.  Henry says OK, but this is the last tricky job he will do for her.  He tells her to give him a call if she loses a dog or cat, "but this area is particularly sensitive."  Roseanna guesses that Carly got to him, but Henry says it was another blond.  One of his partners objects to him working for her.  "It seems it is bad form to try to break up two of Oakdale's hottest and cutest couples."  Roseanna reminds him of the money she owes him, and says, "I won't pay you enough to keep you in martini olives if you don't show up at Jack and Carly's honeymoon cottage with proof."  "Jack is very sinewy," says Henry worriedly, "Can I just mail it to them?"  "No, dear," says Roseanna.  "Good news should always be delivered in person."

       

Roseanna shows up and Jack and Carly's house to find Carly and Mike in a friendly embrace.  She tells them she came to warn them.  "Time to don your foul weather gear, the you-know-what is about to hit the fan!"  She tells them that she's about to expose them as frauds, and they tell her to get out.  Roseanna asks if they're curious as to how she's going to do it, and calls Henry into the house.  "Meet my darling little gumshoe.  Doesn't he have the perfect face for the job?  To look at him you would never guess he would go digging through garbage for proof," says Roseanna proudly.  "Proof of what?" asks Carly.  "Thanks to my sweet Henry here, I now have evidence that you spent the night before your wedding in the Monte Carlo offices making love to this gentleman," reveals Roseanna.  Henry leans down and says, "Miss Cabot, we need to talk, privately."

[ Java Coffee Shop ]
[ Henry is studying the pen that Rosanna gave him ]
>> Rosanna: Henry.
>> Henry: Hmm?
>> Rosanna: How long ago did I hand you that pen?
>> Henry: Um -- a minute.
>> Rosanna: And 35 seconds. During which time you have sat and stared at it. I told you to get it fingerprinted. Go!
>> Henry: No, listen, listen -- I'm just not sure why we want to prove that Carly Tenney and Mike Kasnoff were intimately entangled the night before her wedding.
>> Rosanna: Yours is not to reason why, dear. Yours is to shut up and do.
>> Henry: Okay, okay. This has to be the last tricky job that I do for you. All right? If you lose your cat or your dog, please call me. But this area is particularly sensitive.
>> Rosanna: Mm-hmm. Carly got to you, didn't she?
>> Henry: No, no, she didn't. It's another blonde. One of my business partners objects to me working for you because it seems that it is bad form to try to break up two of Oakdale's hottest and cutest couples.
>> Rosanna: Henry, you know all that money I owe you? I won't pay you enough to keep you in martini olives if you don't show up at Jack and Carly's honeymoon cottage with proof.
>> Henry: Jack is very sinewy. Can I just mail it to them?
>> Rosanna: No, dear. Good news should always be delivered in person.

[ Jack & Carly's House ]
[ Mike and Carly embrace and Rosanna bursts through the front door, sees them and laughs out loud ]
>> Rosanna: Hope I'm not interrupting anything.
>> Mike: What do you want, Rosanna?
>> Rosanna: Well, I was just running errands, and I was thrilled when I saw your car in the driveway. Saves me the trouble of having to track the both of you down.
>> Carly: Now why would you want to do that?
>> Rosanna: To give you fair warning. It's time to don your foul-weather gear, kids. The you-know-what is about to hit the fan.
>> Carly: Well, thanks for the warning Rosebud. But next time, why don't you try e-mail? I really don't want you in my house!
>> Mike: You shouldn't have co here, Rosanna.
>> Rosanna: Remember the good old days, Mike, when your wish was my command? That was before my darling sister taught me that it doesn't matter who you hurt as long as you get what you want.
>> Carly: And what exactly do you want?
>> Rosanna: To show the world what the two of you really are. A couple of frauds.
>> Mike: Get out.
>> Carly: You're nuts.
>> Rosanna: Aren't you even curious about how I'm gonna do it? Henry! Henry? [ Henry reluctantly walks in the house ] Meet my darling little gumshoe. Doesn't he have the perfect face for the job? To look at him, you would never guess that he'd go digging through the garbage for proof.
>> Carly: Proof of what?
>> Rosanna: Well, thanks to my sweet Henry here, I now have evidence that you spent the night in your Monte Carlo offices making love to this gentleman.
>> Henry: Ms. Cabot? Ms. Cabot, we need talk. In private.
