Friday, July 28, 2006 Henry runs into Maddie on her way to Lia's funeral, and reluctantly lets her go. His sister Eve is not happy. Today’s episode was directed by Michael Eilbaum and written by Bettina Bradbury.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Whoa! Maddie hey -- Henry: Is that my baby sister looking so fine? Maddie: Yes. I clean up good, huh? Henry: You clean up great. It's the accessories, though -- it's the bright eyes, and you've got a smile. Is that a smile I saw -- a little earlier at least? A ha! There we go. See, it makes the whole look for me. Maddie: Yes, well, I have a date, so -- Henry: You have -- what? You have -- oh, lord -- did you tell me about this during one of my blackouts? Maddie: No. Henry: No? Good. Okay, so it's not like a big secret or anything? Maddie: No, no, no, it's therapy. Henry: Oh, good, sweetie, I'm so -- I'm so glad you changed your mind about that. I know Margo gave you a lot of names, so which doctor did you choose? Maddie: Um, none of them. Henry: I thought you said something about therapy? Maddie: Right, and I decided that the best therapy for me is to just go on with my life. Henry: Right -- Maddie: So this is me moving on. Henry: Okay -- well, okay, that's great, I'm glad you're moving on. So where are you going to looking all purdy? Maddie: That memorial thing for Lia over at crash. All the crowd's going to be there, so I figure that's where I belong. Henry: I'm sorry, honey, I thought we decided that was not such a hot idea. Maddie: Yeah, well, I changed my mind. You have a problem with that? Henry: Yeah -- yeah, more than one.
Maddie: Better go, or I'm gonna be late for Lia's memorial. Henry: Come here, what did Eve have to say about this? Maddie: She was out when I went up to change. But I don't need her permission, or yours. Henry: No, you don't -- and I'm glad you're getting out there and that you want to hang out with some friends and socialize. I just -- honey, I don't know if this is the best ice breaker. Maddie: Why? I didn't kill Lia. Or do you have doubts about that, too? Henry: No, of course I don't have doubts about that. You and Lia do share an unpleasant history. Maddie: Not anymore. All the kids are gonna be there. So it'll look weird if I don't show. Henry: All the kids? Like Casey? Nate: Hey, Maddie. You ready to go? Maddie: Hey -- Henry: Hey, you must be Nate. I don't know if Maddie has -- Maddie: Nate, this is my brother, Henry. Nate: Hi. Henry: Hi. Nate: Is there a problem? Maddie: Do not embarrass me, please. Henry: No, there is no problem at all. Maddie: All right, well, we won't be late. Henry: Okay, have fun. Nate: You look hot.
Eve: Henry? Henry: Where've you been? Eve: Shopping. Henry: Shopping? You know, when the going gets tough, I slip into one of these. Eve: I bought Maddie some things. I thought it'd cheer her up. Henry: I don't know. Our little sister isn't as shallow as we are. Eve: Mm-hmm. I also got her some protein bars. She doesn't eat much. Henry: Yeah, you're right. Maddie just needs a little lecithin and fish oil, and all her problems will be solved. Good lord. Eve: You know, you're in a mood. I'm going up -- Henry: She's not up there. Eve: Where is she? Henry: She's at the memorial at crash. Eve: What? You let her go? Henry: I didn't want to let her -- I didn't want to, Evie, but then one of her friends showed up and was going to take her, and -- I didn't want to make a big fuss, okay? Eve: God forbid you make a fuss when our sister is having a meltdown. Maddie's problem is you've always been way too permissive. Henry: Oh, you know what, Evie? I really wish that I was Maddie's problem. But I'm not. Eve: I wish I felt that way about what happened in Chicago. Maddie was way too young to go to that frat party. If someone had put their foot down and not let her go, that night would have never happened and Maddie wouldn't be in the trouble that she's in. Henry: Well, look, you can't undo what's been done, right? That way madness lies. Eve: You have to admit, our sister isn't acting like the same sweet, funny girl we both know and love. Henry: No, she's not. And that's why I let her go. I know it's a gamble, but I think if she gets a chance to get out there, to be with her friends, just hang out, that it might to do her some good. Eve: Really? Henry: Yeah. Eve: And just how many of those did it take to land you in the world of wishful thinking?
