Katie has hatched a scheme to get Henry and Vienna back together, with Brad's help.  Katie asks Henry to accompany her to a romantic inn that she has to check out for work, and Brad does the same with Vienna.  Henry runs into his former fiancée on her way out of the Lakeview and they figure out they're being set up.  Henry is willing to give it a try, but Vienna is still hurt and insists that it won't make him love her.

Today’s episode was directed by Habib Azar and written by Anna Fields.

Henry: No, Katie -- Katie, what do you mean you have to go up to Woodlawn? Woodley -- whatever. Why can't we meet and drive up together? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Katie, listen, that's not what we -- okay -- okay, all right. Okay, okay -- I said okay, bubbles, all right? I will meet you up there. Vienna -- Vienna! What's with the suitcases? Where are you going?

 

Vienna: It's no business of yours where I'm going, Henry Coleman!

Henry: Wait, wait, please -- Vienna, please, don't leave, not like this.

Vienna: Oh, really? Well, how exactly is a jilted bride supposed to leave? And take your hands off me, Henry. You shouldn't touch what doesn't belong to you anymore.

Henry: Okay, okay. I deserve that, I deserve that. You're not leaving town for good, though, are you?

Vienna: No. Not for good. I'm doing someone a favor -- a friend.

Henry: Which friend?

Vienna: A good friend.

Henry: How good? Does this friend's name begin with "b" and end with a "rad"? You know what? Forget it. I give up, okay? You can go on hating me forever -- you and your friend. I will leave you both to it.

Vienna: No, Henry. I don't hate you. And yes, the favor is for Brad. He wants me to test some Swedish meatballs in this town called Wood -- Wood -- something, I can't --

Henry: Woodley -- Woodley?

Vienna: Yes, you know about it?

Henry: Yeah, I just found out about it. Katie invited me there, too.

Vienna: Why would she do that?

Henry: I don't know, but I don't think it's a coincidence.

 

Henry: Do you see what is happening here? It is a setup.

Vienna: What, you really think Katie is trying to get us alone together?

Henry: Yes, yes. She thinks if she can get us into the same inn, she can get us into the same bed.

Vienna: Well, would it?

Henry: Vienna --

Vienna: No, Henry, never mind. Save your excuses.

Henry: No, wait a second. It's not -- Vienna, it's excuses, okay? I'm trying to do what is best for you, and believe me, that is really difficult. Please, please know how sorry I am.

Vienna: Well, you should be sorry. You are not the man I thought you were. Your heart is missing. What about Brad? Where's his heart?

Vienna: How should I know?

Henry: Maybe you should find out. Because he seems to be able to make you forget about poor, heartless me.

Vienna: What do you mean? Brad and I --

Henry: I don't -- you know, i don't want to know the details, okay? You can do whatever you want with whomever you want.

Vienna: And isn't that a good thing? Because you don't want me anyway, do you, Henry?

Henry: Just go, just go. You two sounded very happy together. I don't want to stand in your way.

Vienna: Oh, wait, wait -- wait. What do you mean I sounded happy with Brad?

Henry: I was outside the room.

Vienna: When?

Henry: The day after what was supposed to be our marriage, I heard you two together.

Vienna: Oh, and you thought we were --

Henry: No details, no.

Vienna: No, but you're wrong, Henry. I wanted to be with him because you rejected me, and I was lonely and sad and hurt -- and then, he turned me down. And you know what? I'm glad he did.

Henry: Really?

Vienna: Really. And you know what? The two of you have more in common than you may think you have.

Henry: How's that? Our callous disregard for other people's feelings?

Vienna: No, no. Brad saved me from making a terrible mistake. And so did you. But the only difference is that I have no interest in Brad. The only person that -- I -- never mind.

Henry: No, wait. No, no, wait -- please -- please, go on. Please.

Vienna: It's not important. Past is past. You know, if Brad only invited me to woodley so I could run into you, maybe -- maybe I shouldn't go.

Henry: Maybe, but I think it might be considered criminal to turn down a beautiful room at a beautiful inn. I'm not putting any pressure here, but I'm game if you are.

 

Vienna: Henry, going to that inn will only make things worse.

Henry: Why, why? Because we might end up in the same room together?

Vienna: Making love?

Henry: Would that be such a bad way to end up?

Vienna: No, maybe not. For an evening. No, but the next morning, nothing will have changed. Henry still doesn't love Vienna.

Henry: Henry misses Vienna.

Vienna: No, no -- you know, no, it's not enough. Not for me. Just, please -- please, go. Just leave me alone, Henry.

Katie: Henry, where

are you?

Henry: Oh, just out and about. Doing some thinking. Hey, what do you think about starting a professional meddlers union? You'd make a killing on the dues.

Katie: Is Vienna with you? Henry, please, don't give up this opportunity.

Henry: Oh, just save your breath, Katie, okay? It is over. Good luck on some future victims.

Katie: No, Henry, don't do this!

Henry: It is done. Vienna and I are not coming. It is over.

Katie: No, wait! I'm sorry if I jumped the gun and stuck my nose in where it didn't belong. Please forgive me. It's just that, my heart was in the right place.

Henry: Wow, you know, I would think that you had learned something over all these years. Like how flowers and candles and a hotel room don't make love work. You, of all people, should know that, Katie.

 

Vienna: You know, there is this old movie playing tonight -- [ Knock at door ] Henry, what are you doing here?

Henry: Hi, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm looking for Maddie. Well, thank goodness. Should I say thank you?

Vienna: You don't have to thank me, Henry. Your sister and I, we helped each other tonight. She was upset when she got here, but she's -- she's doing better now. I think you should let her sleep.

Henry: Yeah, yeah, of course. I wouldn't dream of waking her.

Vienna: Okay. Good night, Henry.
