Wednesday, February 7, 2007 Henry runs into old friend Katie and new friend Vienna at the police station, where he was hoping to get a job. Today’s episode was directed by Habib Azar and written by Judith Donato.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Hey, where's the fire? Katie: I hope you don't need to be bailed out Henry, because I'm in a hurry. I'm on my way to the ceremony for Margo at the Lakeview. Henry: I know. That's why I'm here. I heard the good news, and I want to congratulate her. Katie: You walked through the police station doors willingly to come congratulate my sister? Henry: Well, she's my sister too. In law. What, what, what? I always have to have an agenda? Come on. Katie: Well -- Henry: Yeah, okay. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. I was hoping this promotion would put her in a good enough mood to consider a little proposition. Katie: About what? Henry: Gainful employment -- for me. Katie: You want to be a cop? [ Henry laughs ] Henry: No, no, no, no. Of course not. No, no of course not. I was thinking, like, a big station like this probably needs some extra help from time to time, from civilians. Katie: Like a janitor, or something? Henry: I believe the term is "maintenance specialist," Katie. And no, no -- I'm using my own credentials for this one. The limo business is a little slow, so I was thinking, maybe they need a driver for special assignments. Katie: How are you at high speed chases? Henry: There's still a paddy wagon, isn't there? They still need to transfer detainees, right? Katie: Yeah, but I think you need to carry a gun for that. Henry: Seriously? Aw man, I have this intense aversion to firearms. Katie: I know. [ Henry sighs ] Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find something somewhere else. Henry: Yeah -- Katie: Or, I could give you another loan if you need it. Henry: No, no, no. That's absolutely out of the question. Katie: Why? Let me be good for something. Henry: Excuse me? Whoa. Katie, what negativity is that? Katie: It's just -- not too long ago, I was told off, royally, by an 11-year-old, and, the sad thing is, he was right. Henry: Come on. What does an 11-year-old kid know? Katie: That I ruined his life. I keep making mistakes, Henry. I don't know what I'm doing. And the worst thing is, you know, it's fine if you're hurting yourself. It's yourself. But when other people get involved and you drag them down with you, and they have nothing to do with it, it's just -- I'm so sick of it. Henry: Come here. Come here. Come here. Vienna: I don't know how you do it, Katie. How do you get all these men to feel sorry for you? Katie: Like I said, I'm on my way to the Lakeview. Henry: Yeah. You want me to drive you? The limo's right outside. Katie: No, no, no, thanks. I've got to go home first. Thank you. Henry: Okay. Vienna: Good bye, Katie. Wonderful seeing you. Henry: I don't think the feeling is mutual. Vienna: Ah, let's not talk about her. Let's talk about you. I'm always interested in a man who travels by limousine.
Henry: Well, I don't travel by limousine everyday. Just, you know, for special occasions. Vienna: Oh, like when you visit police stations? Henry: If you're asking why I'm here, it's just to visit a friend. Vienna: Oh, me too! Me too. Well, at least, he used to be a friend, until he kicked me out. Left me with no place to stay. Henry: What? Now who would do something so cruel to a lovely, lovely woman like you? Vienna: Detective Jack Snyder. Henry: Oh. Vienna: Yeah. I'm sure you know him. Everyone does. Henry: Yeah, our paths have crossed. Not in a professional capacity, or anything like that. We know some of the same people. Vienna: I was living at the Snyder farm as a guest of his Aunt Emma, but suddenly he decided he didn't want me around anymore. Henry: And you're hoping for one last ditch effort to change his mind -- Vienna: Yeah, well, that was the plan, so -- how do I look? Henry: I -- I -- I don't know if there's a word for it in your native -- tongue, but there's none in mine. Vienna: Well, thank you. Now, wish me luck. Henry: Yeah, good luck. Wait, wait, I can't do that. I can't do that. I can't do that. Jack's not here. Vienna: No? Henry: No. Vienna: Well, where is he? Vienna: He's probably off celebrating the swearing in of the new chief of detectives. It's Margo, Katie's sister. Vienna: Well, that explains it. Henry: Explains what? Vienna: What that little blonde Miss Kitty Kat keeps getting away with murder! You know, I'm sure it's good to have a sister who's a cop.
