Annie & Lillian are undressing & talking about Annie's date with Josh, when 
he bursts into the room.  The women cover themselves and he backs out of 
the room & talks through a partially closed door.  He's there to tell 
Annie that he can't make it to their date.  Something else came up.  
Annie gets mad and won't let him explain.  She tells him to leave and 
slams the door.

             DINER

Lucy is doing research for her date with Brent by reading the sports page 
and asks Frank to quiz her about the top 10 scorers of the NBA.

Alex walks into Roger's office and says she's there to see how he's doing 
and to tell him that Fletcher quit the Journal and gone off somewhere.  
And Holly's off after him.

            ICE HOUSE

Fletcher tells Holly to go home, Ben gets another bite, but Holly won't 
leave until they talk.  Fletch has nothing to say to her.  Ben wants to go to 
the camp store to get some bait, but Fletch won't let him leave.  He asks 
Holly to leave, but she has something to say.  He doesn't have to listen 
to her if he doesn't want to.  Holly asks him why he quit the Journal.  
Fletch tells her he wants to work on his novel.  She doesn't buy it.  He 
left because of her, "because of us".  Fletch tells her there is no 
"us".  Holly says there is, "Maybe we didn't ask for it, maybe we didn't 
want it to happen, but it happened.  Maybe we started out arguing about 
headlines but we ended up right on..."  Fletch interupts her and tells 
Ben to get some bait and take his time.  After Ben leaves, Fletch tells 
Holly that she has a lot of nerve & reminded him that she only thinks of 
herself.  "You grandstand, you love to be dramatic at the expense of 
everybody else around you."  He doesn't want to talk about what happened 
because whatever happened had nothing to do with him and everything to do 
with Roger Thorpe.

             WSPR

Alex asks if Roger heard what she said.  He tells her he hopes they'll be 
very happy and to close the door as she leaves.  Alex is not leaving, so 
Roger calls Gilly to come see him.  Alex wonders where Fletch & Holly 
went.  Roger tells her to let go.  Alex:  "You never let go of anything 
you wanted in your life-- not willingly."  Gilly knocks and comes in.

             DINER

Lucy tells Frank & Buzz that Brent likes football, but basketball is all 
she could find.  Frank wonders why she's studying.  Lucy doesn't want to 
sound stupid.  Frank tells her to be herself.  Buzz thinks she's just 
trying to be interested in what he's interested in.  Brent arrives and is 
introduced to Frank.  He hopes Lucy likes Country Western because he's 
ready to do the Texas two-step all night long.  

Frank doesn't like Brent-- he's a yuppie.  He doesn't look like he's worked 
a day in his life.  Buzz defends him.  Frank says that he's after something.

             ROADHOUSE

Tangie fights her way through the dancers to tell Nick she wishes she 
could help & wonders when Fletcher will be back.  Nick is working day & 
night to keep the presses going.  She talks him into having a burger & 
asks if he's still mad at her because she defended Roger.  He tells her 
they each know a different man.  Cutter sits down and asks Tangie what's 
cooking & they trade barbs.  Mindy walks in & sees Nick. 
 

            RESTAURANT

Lillian and Annie arrive for dinner.  Annie is happy to be there with 
Lillian, rather than that conceited jerk.  Josh walks in.  Lillian says 
they can leave, but Annie won't let him chase them out of there.  She 
wants to see who he's with, so she uses the mirror in her compact to look 
behind her.

             WSPR

Gilly tells Roger about the noon news and other scheduling.  He wonders 
why she's going to LA.  Does she feel unappreciates?  Yes, she does.  
They all know she won't ever have any real power at WSPR.  He tells her 
she could have the same thing here.  She has great TV presence  & LaLa 
land will redo her from top to bottom, making her into a pseudo-news 
bimbo & give her fluff pieces. Gilly thinks they could give her hard news & 
turn her into the next Barbara Walters.  Roger wonders about Sid, 
"Ambition has a way of wrecking lives."  Cough by Alex.  "If you care 
about somebody, don't let anything or anybody mess it up."  Gilly says 
it's just an interview.  

Alex tells Roger that Gilly knows he doesn't give a damn about her.  He 
was talking about him & Holly.  She says that inside he is seething.  
"You're going to make him pay for it, not her."

             ICE HOUSE

Holly tells Fletch that he was right & she was wrong. 

Fletch:  "Wrong about what?"
 
Holly:  "About us, about the elephants that you said were in the room 
with us, that we tried to shoot & didn't stay shot.  I know you were 
trying to get through to me, but I didn't want to feel those feelings, so 
I kept fighting them.  But the night of the awards dinner, I realized 
there was some spark of something between us.  When I heard you and Roger 
out on the terrace that's when I knew it."

Fletch:  "You realized you cared, because big, bad, old Roger laughed in 
my face when he found out we'd been lovers?"

Holly:  "You stood up to somebody who wanted to kill you.  You were so 
brave & didn't back down.  You told Roger that you loved me.  Did you 
mean it?  Do you?  When you said that, it was like someone reached out 
and offered me something so simple, not complicated, not at all doomed.  
That's why I came here.  I want out of this cycle that I've had going on 
with Roger as long as I can remember.  I told him that it was over and I 
meant it."

Fletcher laughs at the timing.  "It's too late, frankly Scarlet I don't 
give a damn."

Holly hits him.  "How dare you!  This 2nd rate, used macho piece of 
pseudo-literary garbage.  Can't you blow me off in your own words?"

A stranger comes in and asks what's going on.

             ROADHOUSE

Cutter asks Tangie if Nick & Mindy have really broken up.  Nick and Mindy 
talk, he goes back to the bar, and Cutter joins Mindy.  He asks if it's 
ok.  She says Nick won't break his legs.  He wasn't talking about that.  
She tells him that she & Nick are finished.  They get up and dance.  
Brent & Lucy arrive.

             RESTAURANT

Annie's watching for Josh's date & Lillian tells her he's coming to the 
table near them.  Annie wants to find another table before he sees them, 
but he says hello and wonders why they're there.  Annie asks about his 
date.  Josh tells Annie that she's in the ladies room making herself 
beautiful.  There's another woman in his life-- it's Marah.  Annie 
welcomes her and tells her she looks wonderful. 

Marah asks her dad if he wants to ask Annie over, because she knows he 
likes her.  Josh wonders how she knows.  Marah:  "Women know these 
things."  Josh wants it to be their night since she won the city-wide 
spelling bee.

Lillian wonders how Annie could be so insecure, when every man at the 
hospital falls apart when she walks in the room.  Annie compliments 
Lillian.  But Lillian says she is lonely & it's hard to look in the 
mirror & see your mother reflected there.  Annie looks at Marah and Josh 
& tunes out Lillian.

Alex will leave as soon as Roger tells her what revenge he's got planned 
for Fletcher and how he plans to get Holly back.  Roger says he's not 
planning anything.  "Who am I to stand in their way if they have 
something good going."

             ICE HOUSE

They tell him that nothing is going on.  He heard yelling and thought 
there was a fight.  Fletch says she was trying to kill him.  Holly tells 
him they are old friends. "We were having an affectionate tussle."  He 
tells them to leave because a bad storm is coming.  Ben is waiting 
outside.  Fletch tells Holly to go because of the storm.

Holly:  "Will you ever say anything to me but go away?"

Fletch:  "Me quoting from "Gone with the wind" was low.  You were right 
about that."

Holly:  "I'm always right.  Maybe you could be good for me.  Sooner or 
later with Roger everything goes bad.  Maybe it would be different with 
us.  We fight at the Journal all the time, but we fight about normal 
things, good things.  Don't you think it would be worth a try?  I don't 
know what I'm doing here, what I'm saying.  Of all my craziest days, I 
couldn't dream this up.  I could be falling love with you."

Fletch just look at her and she asks if he heard what she said.  "Do you 
want to give it a try?"  They are about to kiss, when Fletch says:
"No!  She looks pretty, but she kills.  I must be out of my mind.  It's 
always going to be you and Roger.  It's never going to be over.  It's 
like a force of nature."
Holly:  "I don't want to be!"
Fletch:  "That's not the point.  It just is.  In your heart deep down 
it's Roger."

Holly:  "This is crazy.  You were the one that told me I shouldn't be 
with him, that he was poison for me, that you were much better for me.  I 
was too stubborn to hear it."
Fletch:  "I didn't say stubborn, I said addicted."
Holly:  "I've kicked the habit."
Fletch:  "How many times does this make?  5 times?  10 times?"
Holly:  "I don't want to be with Roger, I don't want him in my life."
Fletch:  "I actually believe you, but I don't think you can do it."
Holly:  "Thanks a heap."
Fletch:  "Let's say we do try to have a relationship & work hard at it.  
Do we last a month or a year?  But the old pattern is going to set in.  
Roger's going to call & you'll come running.  I don't want to be standing 
there with my heart torn out."
Holly:  "Then you do love me."

             ROADHOUSE

Nick finally gets his burger, but since he can't stomach watching Mindy & 
Cutter together, he tells Tangie he has work to do.  Cutter asks Mindy if 
it was tough seeing Nick.  She doesn't want to talk about him.  Brent & 
Lucy start to dance, but she doesn't think she'll be very good.  They 
watch Mindy, who grabs Brent & starts to dance with him.  Lucy tells 
herself to loosen up & relax.  Brent comes back & tells Lucy that Mindy 
is something.

             RESTAURANT

Marah & Lillian go to get a menu as a souvenir of her evening with 
daddy.  Josh apologizes to Annie, but she says she was being a jerk.  He 
wants to make it up to her.  She looks very happy.

             DINER

Buzz is complaining about the condition of 5th street.  Frank says there 
is hope with Josh starting the construction firm.  Brent & Lucy come in, 
Buzz drags Frank out of the room, and Lucy asks Brent if he wants a 
banana split.  He's not thinking about that at all.  He kisses her on 
the cheek & tells her he had a great night, but has a big presentation 
tomorrow, so he's gotta go.

Frank comes in and asks Lucy how it went.  She said she fizzled.  "Men 
are a mysteyr or I'm the biggest loser in this state.  I don't think I 
have what men are interested in."

             ROADHOUSE

Mindy & Cutter are still dancing when she decides it's getting late & she 
has to go.  Cutter hates to see it end.  Mindy says it's been fun and 
kisses him goodbye.  Cutter asks Tangie for his tab.  She asks if he 
likes Mindy.  He does and wonders if Tangie is jealous.  She just wants 
to know what's happening between two of her good friends.  He'll let her 
know if anything does.

Roger says he's getting on with his life and Alex should put the past 
behind her-- life is too short.  Alex can't believe he's giving up and 
letting Fletch take the love of his life.

Roger:  "When the power of dark is ascending, the light retreats to 
security, so that the dark cannot encroach upon it."  "Maybe it's harder 
for a woman to let go of a lost love."
Alex laughs.  She doesn't believe a word he says.  He never gives up & 
neither does she.  

Roger gets a call from a private detective who tells him what Fletch, Ben & 
Holly are doing.

             ICE HOUSE

Fletch:  "I want nothing more than to take you in my arms & hold you 
there for the rest of my life, but it's useless.  Because from the first 
moment you & Roger met, he's owned your soul."

Holly:  "Nobody owns me or any part of me."

Fletch:  "I know you want to believe that.  You think you're trying to 
break away.  You may pull it off-- I hope you do, but leave me out of it 
please.  This is between you and Roger.  I wish you well."

Ben brings in three hot chocolates, but Fletch says their guest is leaving.
Holly tells Fletch he's wrong & she's going to prove it.
Fletcher watches her leave. 

Meanwhile, Roger tells his private detective to report everything to him-- 
every move, every sound.  Then he damns them both.
