Malina:  I think that maybe he's on the level and if he's not, then--
Anton:  Then I am allowing him to use my brother in whatever sick plans that are roaming through his head. (~)
Dana:  It's just that it is going to be difficult for Samantha and Brock to get past what you did.
Brock:  (glaring at Leigha) You got that right! (~)
Sherri:  Do you think some proclamation of love is going to make me forget what's going on here? (~)
Garrettlyn:  I'm moving out today!
***Anton:  Who's side are you on?
Malina: (offended tone) I am on your side.
Anton:  Really?  Because it really seem impossible to tell with you siding with Beau and your lack of involvement wasn't exactly helpful either. 
Malina:  Do you want my input, would you like to know what I have been thinking?
Anton:  It would be nice!
Malina:  I spent an whole afternoon trying to convince Beau to drop this petty vendetta and you threw all that progress out the window in a matter of seconds.
Ralph:  Are you all right?
Leigha:  I'm fine, you did not have to chase after me.
Ralph:  I know I didn't, I wanted to.  Besides, I know the last thing you need is my brother throwing your mistakes back in your face.
Leigha:  Well, they are mine to own and hopefully Brock will realize he's not completely blameless either!
(<- Lincoln Manners Resort ->)
Romain:  You should know me better than to make such an accusation.
Sherri:  I thought I did, but obviously I was wrong because the man I fell in love with was an open and honest man and he didn't feel the need to keep secrets from me.
Romain:  So we're back at North Dakota?
Sherri:  Why not?  This isn't my first experience with secrets.  Mitchell did it when he was trying to cover up the fact that he was doing my sister or that he only married me for my money.
Romain:  Well, I am not your ex-husband and I resent the comparison.
Sherri:  Why, are you really any better?
Romain: (eyes lighten in shock) You just crossed the line!
(<- Preston Powers Mansion ->)
Dylan:  You just can't let it end here, not like this!
Garrett:  What else am I supposed to do, Dylan?  Am I supposed to stay in this house that makes me feel empty inside or a place where I run into someone who's pretty much a stranger to me day after day.  I cannot do that, I cannot live like this anymore.
Dylan:  You think it's easy for me, but we can't just give up.
Jennifer:  (outside the mansion)  Who knows why Dylan does anything?  I haven't got all the facts yet, but somehow--
Brian:  What?  What were you going to say?
Jennifer:  Well, somehow my ex-boyfriend (pausing a moment) Romeo Sullivan is involved.  (crash in the foreground)  Did you hear that?
Brian:  Hear what?
Jennifer:  (unknowingly walking towards Romeo) I don't know, but it sounded like it was coming from over here.
*Theme Song*
Brian: (walking ahead of her) I'm sure its just a stray cat or something that knocked over a nearby trash can, okay?
Jennifer:  Sure, you must be right!
Brian:  Yeah, so if you don't mind me asking, why have you never mention Romeo before?
Jennifer:  Well, it wasn't particularly a momentous highlight of my life.
Brian:  Meaning?
Jennifer:  (with a raised eyebrow) Meaning Romeo Sullivan was one of the biggest mistakes I ever made.
Garrett:  What do you want me to do, Dylan?  Do you want us to continue to hurt each other?
Dylan:  No, of course not!
Garrett:  Because the fact of the matter is that I know this is hard, but it will be far worst for me to continue to live in this mansion and pretend everything is all right.  I may be able to contemplate forgiveness one day, but I can't forget what you have done!
(<- Hallandale Courthouse ->)
Malina:  You can say something any time.
Anton:  You're reacting as if it is my fault that Beau and I are at each other throats.
Malina:  He tried to call a truce, did you not see that?  Did you not want to?
Anton:  My god, it sounds like you're on his side every time you open your mouth.
Malina:  Well, I'm sorry to hear that because this is not about sides, this is about family and family isn't something that you just throw away. 
Anton:  I haven't thrown away my family, Beau just does not fit that picture anymore.
Malina:  That's too bad!
Anton:  You have been a witness to several of my encounters with Beau, you of all people should understand why I'd have some doubts about his wanting a truce. 
Malina:  Well, things aren't always 100% in life, sometimes you have to take risks, isn't that why you became a reporter? 
Anton:  Sort of, but this is different, you're asking me to ignore the consequences and I can't do that. 
Malina:  Well, you wanted to know where I stand and now you do, so what happens now? 
***Brian:  How does Dylan fit into all of this?
Jennifer:  Let's just say we had a much greater past than I realize since he was coaching the man I was dating. Of course, I knew him only as Dill McClouden.
Brian:  That figures!  You didn't recognize him at all when you saw him again as Dylan?
Jennifer:  That's the weird part because it was as if I was looking at a completely different person.  (Brian becomes more drawn)
(<- Lincoln Manners Resort ->) 
Romain:  You may be hurt, but frankly right now, I don't give a damn.  This is my home and for you to say such insults to me is a dishonor to me and my home.  Now you wanna talk trash, you can take out in the gutter. 
Sherri:  (scoffs) So much for love! 
Romain:  My love is not at question here, but your sanity is and I will be burnt to crisp in hell before I travel down that road again.  You want a relationship with me, you find some stability and do it quick.
Sherri:  How dare--
Romain:  (intercedes) I'm not finish yet, this is my home and I will do the talking.  There are parts of my life that I will not discuss and obviously you can't respect that and I really don't have the patience to see if you can.  So dinner's over, get out of my house!  (departs, leaving her is shock)
(<- Hallandale Couthouse ->)
Anton:  We move on, I am not going to let my cousin cause trouble for us.
Malina:  I'm glad to hear that!
Anton:  So why don't we blow this joint?
Malina:  and where exactly will you be taking me?
Anton:  Back to my place. (Malina grins) I'm going to have my way with you tonight, Ms. Ramirez.
(<- Preston Powers Mansion ->)
Dylan:  So I guess this is goodbye?
Garrett:  For now anyway!  (she takes a look in his eyes before picking up her suitcases and walking towards the entrance of the mansion, he restrains himself from stopping her by turning to an adjoining wall, she turns back one last time and then opens and closes the door.  He turns back and realizes she is gone and a tear drops from his right eye.)
***Jennifer:  (noticing her walking out the mansion) Garrett, are you all right?
Garrett:  Jennifer, Brian!  I didn't think anyone was out here.
Jennifer:  Well, Brian actually stopped me on my way too-- (taking a look at her watch) Oh my god, I completely lost track of time and I haven't even called the hospital.  Brian, may I use your cell phone?
Brian:  (hands her his cell phone)  Sure, here you go!
Jennifer:  Thank you!  (walking off to the side)
Brian:  So what's up with the suitcases?  Going on a trip?
Garrett:  Actually, I'm moving out. (Brian shocked upon hearing the declaration)  It looks like its just going to be you, Jennifer and Dylan now.  However, I have one small favor and I know it's a lot to ask, but could you just make sure Dylan is okay?
Brian:  (unsure how to respond with a moments pause)  You still care about him, don't you?  (She makes a slight gesture and then walks off with her luggage, leaving him amazed at her concern, he then shouts)  I'll look after him!
(<- Hallandale Pier ->)
Leigha:  (on the rim of the pier)  This water looks so peaceful and beautiful tonight.
Ralph:  I don't know, maybe it's my sister's constant tarot card fascination, but it seems a little rougher than usual.
Leigha:  Rough is good!  Do you think one day we will be able to do this without so much against us?
Ralph:  Meaning my brother and his wife?
Leigha:  Yeah!
Ralph:  Maybe, after all, I am a strong believer in the philosophy that time heals all wounds.
Leigha:  Somehow, I can take comfort in everything that you've said.  (She smiles at him and he returns the gesture)
***Leigha:  (looking out in the ocean, then back at him) You know what I realize tonight?
Ralph:  What?
Leigha:  That there is a silver lining to every dark cloud.  I came to town as the scournful one-night stand and immediately seduce the brother of a man I wanted to suffer and when that all hit the fan, the man who was absolutely wonderful to me got hurt and I never thought I would be embraced by such kindness again.  But you open your heart to me again and offered me a second chance, you are my silver lining Ralph and I will never forget that.  (saying that she turns away back to the ocean and he grins and turns away as well)
Romain:  (thinking to himself) You left me no choice Sherri, I can't deal with that again. 
Sherri:  (in synchronization with his thoughts)  Oh Sherri, you really blew it this time, you really blew it. 
Jennifer:  Hey, where's Garrett?
Brian:  She's gone, she moved out. (Jennifer appears shocked)  She's asked me to look after Dylan.
Jennifer:  and what did you say?
Brian:  Well, I couldn't say no, but this is not necessarily a bad thing.
Jennifer:  How do you figure?
Brian:  Because if Dylan is so broken by this, then he may finally be able to tell us everything you need to know.
Romeo:  (from the bushes)  Just as long as he doesn't mention me in any way, shape or form!
*Stay in Tune for Scenes*
Next:
Devon:  I'm finally giving you what you want, your freedom! (~)
Danielle:  Get you hand out of my face! (~)
Jessica: That man I told you about... he's been working with my ex-husband.
