Sean takes Amy outside and Brad looks at Emily.

Scene changes to Outside the Shockwave

AMY: What’s this all about?

SEAN: Amy, don’t play dumb. I know that we slept together because you drugged me- twice! Then you pretended that you believed that you were pregnant all to break me and Emily up. If you weren’t a girl, I would hit you. You are nothing but a calculating little bitch!

AMY (sobbing): Sean, I’m sorry. Please don’t hate me!

SEAN: Hate you? Amy, as far as I’m concerned we were never friends, you don’t even exist in my world. It takes a lot for me to hate, but I think that you are the only person in the world that I truly hate, loathe and despise.

Amy is in tears, and Sean walks back into the Shockwave.

SCENE 6- RICARDO’S LOFT

RICARDO: All right, Mama. What makes you so sure that Antonio is in trouble?

EMILY: I can’t believe that you said all that.

SEAN: She deserved it.

EMILY: I am not saying that she did or didn’t, I am just surprised.

SEAN: Why don’t we forget about Amy, and go back to your house.

EMILY: My house?

SEAN: Well, Bette and A.J. are in Santa Barbara, so we have the whole place to ourselves.

SCENE 10- COUNTY PRISON

IRIS: Rather well. She fainted.

GREGORY: I figured that she would.

IRIS: Thank you for not telling her after all these years that I am still alive.

GREGORY: When I found out that you were alive, I’m sure that you had your reasons for wanting her to think that you and Thomas were dead.

IRIS: Well, yes, we did, but Olivia can never know the truth. But I just realized that I told Olivia that Thomas died several weeks ago, when the truth is that he died five years ago, and I remarried. Plus, I accidentally introduced myself as Iris Blake-Prentiss to your children.

GREGORY: That kind of slip up could ruin everything, Iris!

IRIS: It won’t happen again.

GREGORY: I better not. Because if the whole plan is to work, something like this would definitely cause suspicion.

IRIS: The hardest part is how the hell am I going to get access to Olivia’s bank account?

GREGORY: We’ll think of something, besides once we get all of Olivia’s money, I’ll be able to take Caitlin and Trey away and we will be able to live somewhere far away where no one can find us.

IRIS: What about me?

GREGORY: I promise you that you will get what you want.

IRIS: Good. Well, I am out of here. We’ll be in touch, Gregory.

Iris walks out.

GREGORY: We certainly will.

SCENE 11- THE BEACH

SARA: So do you mind telling me what is going on?

SARA: I didn’t ask you! I asked Casey.

CASEY: Like Rae said, we were just talking.

Sara turns to Rae.

SARA: Listen to me, I know that you want Casey back. That’s why you are here. But under no circumstances whatsoever, am I going to let that happen!

CAITLIN: Really?

OLIVIA: Yes. So how did Elaine feel about the whole A.J. thing?

Scene changes to inside.

Emily breaks from the kiss when she smells the smoke.

There is smoke coming through the door; Sean and Emily quickly get up and Sean feels the doorknob; it is hot; there is fire on the other side of the door.

EMILY: Oh my god! What are we going to do?

SEAN: Don’t panic.

Sean opens the window and calls out to Bette.

SEAN: Bette!

BETTE: Sean! Emily! Oh, no!

SCENE 9- BRAD’S HOUSE

Amy and Brad walk into his bedroom.

AMY: Wow, I can’t believe this. I don’t know what came over me.

BRAD: I don’t either. I just know that you’re crazy.

AMY: Brad, I am not crazy. I just want Sean and Emily apart for good. I know I went about it wrong. I guess lighting the fire was a little extreme.

BRAD: A little extreme?

AMY: Ok, a lot extreme.

BRAD: I think that you should stop worrying about Sean and Emily, and concentrate on other things.

AMY: Like what?

BRAD: Like, me for example. I can’t stop thinking about when we had sex the other day.

AMY: Really?

BRAD: Yes, really.

Brad and Amy pull close and begin to kiss passionately; they fall onto the bed,

SCENE 10- THE RICHARDS HOME

OLIVIA: So, what do you want to say to me?

IRIS: Olivia, let’s go in and sit down.

They walk into the living room.

IRIS: Olivia, we did everything we did for a reason. We didn’t want to make you think that we were dead, but honey, we had no choice. We would have been killed if we didn’t.

OLIVIA: Why didn’t you take me with you?

IRIS: Because it would cause suspicion, but your father and I thought about you every single day.

OLIVIA: Really?

IRIS: Yes, really. There were times when I couldn’t bare seeing you. Leaving you was the hardest thing I ever did.

OLIVIA: I know what it is like to be separated from your children.

IRIS: It’s the worst thing in the world, isn’t it?

Olivia and Iris look into each other eyes and smile.

Scene changes to outside the Richards Home.

ELAINE: I just went to see A.J.

COLE: Yeah.

ELAINE: I confronted him. He told me that he wanted to tell me that he was alive, but you said not to.

COLE: That’s true. I thought that you would be hurt if you knew that he was alive.

ELAINE: I’m more hurt now knowing that the truth was kept from me.

COLE: All I wanted to do was make sure that you didn’t get hurt.

ELAINE: But I did get hurt.

COLE: That’s the last thing I wanted, Elaine. I’m sorry.

ELAINE: Well, I’ll get over it. It is wonderful to see you.

COLE: You, too.

ELAINE: I just need to be alone for a while. I’ll talk to you later.

COLE: Ok.

Elaine exits and Cole opens the door and goes inside.

RICARDO: Oh. Can I come in and wait for her?

PAULA: Sure, I guess.

Ricardo walks in and turns to face Paula.

RICARDO: It’s been a long time, hasn’t it.

PAULA: Over two years now,

RICARDO: So what have you been up to?

PAULA: I work for the San Diego Police Force, and occasionally help my mom out at the gourmet place she bought- Elaine’s Edibles, like on the Facts of Life.

RICARDO: Interesting.

PAULA: Ricardo, can I ask you something? Have you ever forgiven me for what happened. You lost complete trust in me, and I haven’t really gotten over it.

RICARDO: Of course, I have. I forgave you a long time ago.

Paula smiles and Ricardo smiles back.

AMY: I can’t believe it. We didn’t it again.

BRAD: Yeah, we did. And I’m loving it!

AMY: Brad, please. (pause) Someday, Sean is going to sleep with me again. And I won’t have to give him a love potion either.
