Jack: Listen, I'm gonna head out and get ready for the wedding, okay?

Hal: Okay.

Henry: Hey, hey, hey, who's getting married?

Jack: Mike and Katie.

Henry: What?

Jack: Yeah.

Henry: What? Hey, Hal -- Hal, you've got to cut me a little slack here!

Hal: Why?

Henry: I've gotta go see Katie.

Jack: Hey, I'm gonna have my cell on me. Do me a favor, call me as soon as the rest of my forensics report comes in?

Hal: Will do. Give mike and Katie my best.

Jack: You got it.

Hal: I have a string of witnesses who say that you and Emily have been spending a lot of time at the bar at the Lakeview. I want to know what you were talking about.

Henry: Normal bar room banter, you know? Vodka versus gin, olives versus a twist. I don't really -- I don't remember what else.

Hal: Emily's mom remembers you telling Emily to get out of town.

Henry: Yeah, probably. I told her many times to get away from Paul. Now, it is -- it is not illegal to give good advice, is it, Hal?

Hal: I wish she'd taken it.

Henry: I wish she had, too. I -- we were -- we were friends, and I was there when nobody else was. And I think -- I bet that is what messed her up so much is that there was nobody out there who cared enough to help her. But if I had known anything about this Dusty thing, Hal, I swear to you, I would have stopped her right then and there.

Hal: All right, that'll do for now. But if I find out you're holding out on me --

Henry: I know, I know. You'll lock me up and throw away the key. Can I go now?

Hal: Yes. Thanks for your help.

Henry: Thank you, lieutenant.

[ Henry sighs ]

 

Henry: Sorry I didn't come sooner.

Emily: I thought you'd be the first one in line, given how much you want your money.

Henry: Em, that is not the only reason that I'm here. It's not even the main reason that I'm here. I'm -- I wanted to see how you were doing.

Emily: Not so good, Henry.

Henry: Well, you're gonna do better. You know, you -- you have to do better. You are the only person in this town who can match me drink for drink.

Hal: Well, look who's here.

Henry: What, are you tailing me, lieutenant? What?

Hal: I just wanted to make certain you're not trying to convince her to keep her mouth shut about you.

Henry: I told you, I -- I have nothing to hide.

Emily: What are you doing? What are you trying to pin on him, Hal?

Hal: I need you to be honest with me, Emily. How involved was Henry in your plan to kidnap Dusty?

 

Emily: Henry -- Henry had absolutely nothing to do with Dusty's disappearance. He didn't help me. I did it all on my own.

Hal: That's a whole lot of damage for one person to pull off.

Emily: Well, maybe that's why it didn't work out so well. I was afraid to tell anyone, really -- even Henry.

Henry: See, see? And maybe next time, you'll take my word for it.

Hal: Next time, I'll take your word --

[ Pager beeps ] I have to call the station. I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere.

Henry: Thank you for keeping me out of this.

Emily: That's not all I'm gonna do. I can get you your money.

Henry: Don't toy with me, Emily.

Emily: I'm not. It's in storage at the Lakeview. All you need is the claim check. When I get out of here, Henry, it's yours.

Henry: You really sound like you're serious this time.

Emily: It's the least I can do for my one remaining friend.

 

[ Knock at door ]

Henry: Oh, hi.

Katie: Hi.

Henry: Thank goodness. Thank goodness you're still here. I practically ran the whole way here.

Katie: Whoa, breathe, relax.

Henry: I'm breathing, I'm breathing. I just need to get to the gym more often. [ Henry laughs ] Is it -- is it true that you're getting married tonight?

Katie: Yeah.

Henry: Congratulations. Oh, congratulations.

Katie: Thank you. So you'll be there?

Henry: What do you mean? I've been -- I've been in every one of your marriages. What are you talking -- ? I was even a major player in one of them, I believe. Do you remember that one?

Katie: Of course I remember. In fact, you promised me that you're okay with this.

Henry: Okay? I'm -- I couldn't be happier. This is what you wanted, and this is what you deserved, and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
