Henry and Vienna toast with Brad that they're back together.  Brad tries to get Henry to call Katie so he can "comfort" her since Carly is back in town.  Henry refuses, and retreats to his room with Vienna for a private celebration.  In what could possibly be the sweetest non-wedding ever, Henry and Vienna get some "clarification" on their relationship.

Today’s episode was directed by Jennifer Pepperman and written by Susan Dansby.

Brad: To me being right. I love it. I knew you two would get back together.

Henry: I'll drink to that.

Brad: My spidey senses are tingling. I'm sensing a wedding in the future. That means that Katie's got to throw you another bachelor party, right?

Henry: No bachelor party.

Vienna: No wedding.

Henry: No, we have decided to remain in lust and unwed. Who's that?

Vienna: Elizabeth.

Henry: Your friend from Europe?

Vienna: Mm-hmm. I'll be right back.

Henry: Okay.

Brad: So call Katie. Get her down here so we can get this party started.

Henry: I called Katie. She's busy.

Brad: Busy doing what? Being depressed?

Henry: No, she sounded fine to me.

Brad: Poor kid. She's just nursing her broken heart.

Henry: Did she break up with Jack? When did this happen?

Brad: Hello? Carly's back in town.

Henry: Hello? Jack and Carly are divorced.

Brad: Like that means anything with those two. I give them two weeks -- tops. Jack will get back together with Carly, and Katie will be out in the cold.

Henry: And you'll be?

Brad: Primed and pumped to turn up the heat with Katie.

 

Brad: You know what the best thing about depressed women is? They are so grateful to the next guy that comes along. So, are you going to call Katie again or what?

Henry: Brad, you want me to get my best friend down here so you can make moves on her?

Brad: I am more subtle than that, Henry. I will start out by comforting her. She needs me.

Henry: Yeah, I don't -- I don't think so, Brad.

Brad: Come on, man. You have put her out of her misery. You know she's just home, you know, crying, waiting for Jack. Come on, man. Call her. Call her. Call her.

Henry: Katie's doing no such thing.

Henry: How's Elizabeth?

Vienna: Can we go upstairs?

Henry: Yeah. Sorry, Brad. We have to go.

Brad: Wait, wait, wait, wait, Vienna, Vienna. How come you're so sure that Katie's not at home pining over, you know, Jack?

Vienna: Because I gave her tips. I told little Katie-Kat to go fight for her man.

Brad: You did?

Vienna: Mm-hmm. When you find the right one, he's worth it. And she can win.

Brad: Against Carly?

Vienna: Katie loves Jack. And Jack loves her. Of course she'll win.

Henry: Bye.

 

Henry: You're the most amazing woman in the world, you know? And the most agile, too.

Vienna: You're amazing, too. Oh, Henry! I --

Henry: What? What is it?

Vienna: No, you'll misunderstand.

Henry: What, you want me to play the sexy gymnast this time? I can do that.

Vienna: No --

Henry: Then, what? What? What is it then?

Vienna: You know when my friend called earlier from Europe?

Henry: Yeah --

Vienna: She wants me to come visit.

Henry: Okay.

Vienna: And I lied to her and I said I was busy.

Henry: Okay.

Vienna: And the truth is, I don't want to leave you, Henry. Not even for a couple of weeks.

Henry: I don't want you to leave, even for a couple of minutes.

Vienna: And there's another thing. I love you, Henry.

Henry: Vienna --

Vienna: No, no, that doesn't mean I want to marry you. I don't. But I want to be able to I say I love you because I do.

Henry: I love you, too.

Vienna: No, no, I don't want you to say that. I don't want you to feel pressured or anything.

Henry: I don't -- I don't feel pressured, okay?

Vienna: What? What's wrong?

Henry: I'll be right back.

Vienna: Why -- where are you going?

Henry: I'm going to get some things.

Vienna: No, get back into bed. Come on.

Henry: No, no, knock it off. Knock it off. We've put this off for way too long, okay? So, get dressed, will you? Not -- not -- not too dressed. Just not naked. If you're naked when I get back, we're never going to get this done.

Vienna: Get what done?

Henry: Clarity. We need to make things perfectly clear.

 

Vienna: Wow, you look beautiful.

Henry: That's my line.

Vienna: Are we going out?

Henry: No, we're not. We're going to have a little ceremony.

Vienna: A ceremony?

Henry: Yes. A little clarification about what we feel and what we are.

Vienna: Am I going to like this?

Henry: I certainly hope so. Come here. Let's start with this. Yeah.

Vienna: What is that?

Henry: This is sort of a bouquet, but not a bouquet.

Vienna: Oh, oh, I see. Because I'm in love, but not really a bride?

Henry: Right. And it's a cactus, which stands for endurance and heat. We've got both, right?

Vienna: Oh, Henry.

Henry: No, no, no, wait! Wait, there's more. There's more, there's more. The woman in the gift shop told me that pink candles stand for friendship and great joy and sensual pleasure.

Vienna: And that's us.

Henry: One more. One more.

Vienna: No, no, I really -- I don't want a ring, Henry. Really, I don't.

Henry: Great. Then, you're going to love this. Here, open it.

Vienna: A button?

Henry: A button. It's from the Jacket I was wearing when you got into my limo, and we got stuck in the snow, and we made love and you changed my life forever.

Vienna: I'll cherish this forever.

Henry: So now, if I may, I would like to make a clarifying non-wedding proposal. I, Henry, promise you Vienna, love and loyalty, each and every day, as long as we choose to live together.

Vienna: And I, Vienna, will honor you Henry, and celebrate every night we choose to spend together.

Henry: I look forward to dating you until we are very, very old.

Vienna: And you may now kiss your date.
