At the Agency
Stacey is talking to Frankie... she's starting to feel at
home at the agency.  Tess enters and gives them a hard time
about socializing.  Tension between Stacey and Tess.  
The receptionist runs her stockings... Frankie notices her
talking to herself about them... she looks up and she and
Frankie say Hi...

Tess tells Stacey that the copy is too long on the ad and the tone
is all wrong.  Stacey thought she would spice it up.  Tess says`
that's not her job.  Tess says there's pressure and deadlines
here and it's not like baking cookies. Not that she has anything
against cookies, I'm sure Buck doesn't either.

Angie's House
Angie tries to hurry Charles. They're late for a concert and
they're supposed to be picking up Frankie to go but 
Charles is trying to watch the end of a game.  They argue.
Angie says his horizons could use a little expansion.  She wants
to spend some time with Frankie. He suggests camping.  Angie
says if its that hard for you stay home, I'm not going to put
a gun to your head.

The Bistro
Switch to the Bistro where the gunman has a gun held on everyone.
Alex wants to try to talk to him.  Jake asks Alex if he really
thinks this is time for a chit chat.  The gunman refers to Deb
as a waitress and she screeches that she's not a waitress, she
is the owner of this establishment.  Well, then he wants her to
get some cash for him, NOW.

opening credits.

Angie asks if its going to be the concert or Patrick Hueing.  Charles
says he wants to watch he game and we won't go to the concert.
We'll put on some comfortable clothes, build a fire... Angie says
and then?  He says you tell me.. she says we'll send out for pizza
and watch NYPD...  No, not tonight, we're going to the concert...
Charles says do one thing for me, wake me up when it's over...they
leave.

The Agency
The receptionist introduces herself...  Bre (short for Breanna)...  
It's her first day..she's an assistant but she's not sure to who.
He says probably everybody, it's a small place.  She tells him
she hasn't gone to college yet...  she lets on she's almost 19.
She says Ms. Wilder seems a little tense.  She has so many questions
but this isn't the right time. Frankie offers to help.  First she
says the copier machine scares her to death.  He says not a problem.
She wants to treat him to something to eat after he shows her the
copier machine. He wants Sushi... she says he's on.

Tess's office
Stacey says she wants to keep her personal life personal.  Tess says
you don't have anything to worry about when it comes to me and Buck.
Tess apologizes. Stacey says there's nothing to be sorry for. 
Stacey says lets get to work.  Tess says she needs a new draft, cut
it in half.  Alright, I'll get right on it says Stacey.  Tess says
I hope you're not one of those writers that falls in love with every
word.  Stacey says she doesn't fall  in love that easy.  Tess says
she doesn't either.  Stacey leaves and calls Tess a witch in the
hall.  Tess says she's starving...

Angie and Charles return home cause they can't find the tickets.
She thinks Charles hid them but he denies it...  Angie doesn't
quite believe him and keeps looking for the tickets.  Charles says
that he and Frankie had a break through the other day.  She says
he actually *talked* to him.  Charles spots the tickets next to
Angies scarf that she also forgot...  She says go ahead and say
it... He says you are the most beautiful woman that I've ever known
and I love you madly... they kiss...  He says they better get
going so they don't miss the concert and pulls away from her. 
She hits him on top of the head with her purse and they leave.

The Bistro
Jake tells the gunman that there's no point in robbing this dump.
Deb gets defensive.  The gunman is on edge.  Ava says she feels
deja vu...  Deb says she doesn't have anything to live for, go ahead
and shoot her... Stephy gets upset and tries to interfere...  He
grabs Stephy and lets Deb go... He tells Coop not to interfere or
he can say goodbye to his lady....

The Agency
Frankie finishes the copy machine lesson...  she asks why she didn't
see him this morning. He says he only works afternoons.. he's here
on work study... she asks about college?  He says he doesn't graduate
until June... oh, you're in high school still? she asks disappointedly..
He says he's just a pup... she asks if he's a dog or cat person...
she gives him a few more choices about things and realize they are
pretty different.  She says they're still on for dinner... he starts
to leave... Angie and Charles come in to get him for the concert...
Frankie had forgotten. He apologizes to Bre and starts to leave.
Charles and Angie introduce themselves to Bre... she thinks Angie is
Frankie's sister...  Turns out that Bre is a lover of classical music. 

The Bistro
Coop offers money to the gunman.  Alex tries to calm things down...
Deb circles behind the counter and pushes the silent alarm...
The gunman wants a few lousy bucks... Alex suggests he takes what
money is here. He's distracted and Jake jumps the guy and Alex and
Jake wrestle him to the floor.  Alex yells at Jake, are you stupid
or just CRAZY???  You could have gotten us all KILLED!!

The Agency
Bre says she has to work or she would take him up on the offer to
go to the concert.  Frankie says he loves Boroque music... Angie
rolls her eyes...  Angie suggests they make the next concert a
foursome... Bre would like that... As they leave, Angie says she`s
very nice...  She teases him about pretending to like Bach...
She gives him an out to go have dinner with her but Frankie declines.
He says its not what Angie is thinking... 19 yr old women don't make
dates with 17 yr old guys who's mother's pick them up for concerts...
Frankie hurries on and Angie and Charles laugh and leave for the concert.

The Bistro
Deb is on the phone yelling at the police for not coming when the
alarm went off.  Alex tells Jake that he was a cop. It figures says
Jake.  Cops show up. Alex tells them what happened.  He says this
gentleman jumped him, and the cop says what gentleman?  Alex looks
around and Jake is gone.  We see him sneaking away outside the Bistro.

ho-hum-hanger....
