Transcripts from TVMegasite [ Vienna laughs ] Henry: Watch it. Hey, who wants to give me a fashion show? Vienna: Oh, should we get some lunch first? You know, shopping always gives me such an appetite. Henry: That's funny, cause shopping for this sort of thing always gives me an incredible appetite, too. I'm starving! But yeah, if you insist, we can order some lunch, I guess. Vienna: I was thinking that we should ask Madeline to join us. Henry: You serious? Vienna: Of course! I've noticed that you haven't stopped worrying about how quiet she was when we saw her. Henry: Yeah, I think it was just something with Casey. Yeah, she was not herself, and I want you to meet the real Maddie, because she's a lot of fun. She's definitely my favorite sister. Vienna: Were you guys close when you were children? Henry: She was pretty young when I left home. Vienna: Do you think that I can get her to tell me a little bit about you as a young boy? Henry: I think I can bribe her not to do that. Vienna: I am sure she only has happy memories, not like my brothers, who wanted me to play Joan of Arc so they could set me on fire. [ Henry laughs ] Henry: What is that? What, are you serious? Vienna: Yes. I mean, they were just being boys, but you know, -- got there in plenty of time. Henry: Just being boys? Wow. That's -- then I have nothing to hide. The worst thing I ever did is I cut off all of my older sister's hair when we were playing barber shop. Anyway, Maddie was too young to remember that. Vienna: Well, I am going to find out what she does remember. So give her a call and ask her if she wants to join us for lunch. Henry: Went right to voicemail. Maddie, hey, hey! It's me and Vienna. We want to know if you want to come over for a bite. Even if you can't, give me a call, okay? I want to make sure you're all right. Vienna: Oh, no. You're gonna be all worried again. Do you think Maddie has a broken heart? Henry: I think Casey disappointed her. I mean, he gambled, and he lied about it, and then he stole some money to take care of his debts. And he's in a lot of trouble with the law. Vienna: It happens -- to the best of us. Can Madeline do anything to help him? Henry: Not that I can think of, but you know what? That's not gonna stop her from trying. The problem with her is that when she gets scared, she doesn't ask for help because she doesn't think anyone will understand, and then when she's in that kind of place, she makes decisions that get her into more trouble than she was in the first place.
Henry: She's still not picking up. Maddie, hey. Listen, give me a call, will ya? I'm just being brotherly, all right? Thanks. I don't think we're gonna see my little sister today. Vienna: Oh, that's too bad. I was hoping to learn a lot of new things about you. It was gonna be a fun afternoon. Henry: We could still have fun. We know how to do that. Vienna: Yes we do, don't we? Henry: Steady. Vienna: Ooh, I know what. You can teach me some American games. Henry: Like what? Vienna: What's your favorite? Henry: Well, I do have a certain fondness for poker. Vienna: Well, poker it is, then. We should play Texas hold-up. Henry: Texas hold 'em. Texas hold 'em. Vienna: Okay. I'll hold 'em, and you deal. Henry: I have an idea. What about a little variation here? Vienna: What? Do you mean strip poker? Henry: Whoa, whoa! For someone who says she needs a teacher, you seem to know a lot more than you're letting on. Vienna: I've only heard about the game. I've never played it before. Henry: All right, just one item of clothing for every hand you lose. Vienna: Okay, just tell me what to do as we go along. Henry: All right, you get seven, you keep five, and deuces are wild. Vienna: Okay. I'm ready. Henry: You're what? You're ready to make a bet? Vienna: I bet everything you have on. Henry: Sweetie, that's not the way it goes. Vienna: But that's my bet. I win. Henry: How did you do that? Vienna: I stacked the deck! Henry: You did what? Ohh!
Vienna: Marco! Henry: Polo. Vienna: Marco? Henry: Polo. Vienna: Marco. Henry: Polo. Vienna: Are you sure that's all I'm supposed to say, Marco? Henry: Yes, yes, you said you wanted to know about American games, and this is it. Now, take it or leave it. Vienna: Marco! Henry: It's a lot more fun in a pool. Careful. Vienna: Marco! Henry: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're not supposed to take that off! Vienna: Well, I'm going to put it on you, Marco. Henry: That's okay, polo. Hey. That sounds like a lot of fun, but I think I've had enough fun for tonight. Vienna: You know, I have something serious to ask you, so don't make any jokes, okay? Henry: Okay. Vienna: Are you ready? Henry: I don't know. Vienna: Move in with me. Henry: When did you decide this? Vienna: Just now. Henry: That's a major decision. That's a month's worth of negotiation right there. Vienna: But why? You've been sleeping here every single night. Henry: Yeah, I know. I know I have, but -- Vienna: But what? Henry: I just -- I feel good having a place of my own. Vienna: Why, so you can run away? Henry: I'm not gonna run away. Vienna: Well, then what? Are you happy, Henry? Because that's all you need to be, happy. Henry: I'm deliriously happy, it's just a big step, sweetheart. Vienna: Okay, it's -- this is just like poker. If you want to win big, you have to bet big. That's what you told me. Henry: Did I? Vienna: Yeah, you did. Henry: Really? Okay. Here's a little lesson to learn about Henry. Don't believe everything that comes out of my mouth. Vienna: You can't tell me that now, Henry. That's a little bit too late because I love you too much, and that's why every time you walk out that door to go back to your room, I feel lonely. Henry: Lonely? Vienna: Yeah. Henry: With all these premium cable channels you got here? Come on. Vienna: You're joking again. Henry: I know, and you're serious. You're serious, I know. And you're beautiful, and you're incredible at strip poker. Vienna: So take a bat, Henry, and bet big. On us! Henry: All right, to hell with it. Let's do it, come on, let's move in together.
