Tuesday, November 21, 2006 Henry reads Katie's new pages for her book, "Oakdale Confidential," which she's using to get revenge on Simon and Carly. Henry convinces her it's a bad idea and could ruin her chances for a future with Mike, but it's too late. Today’s episode was directed by Grant Aleksander and written by Susan Dansby.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Knock, knock. Lucinda: Oh, come on in. Hello, Henry. Henry: Hi. Lucinda: Goodbye, Henry. Henry: People come and go so quickly here. What's new at the zoo? Katie: Well, I just finished the new pages for the re-release of "Oakdale Confidential." Or, as I like to call it, "Sweet Revenge."
Henry: It's a new recipe. Pomegranate martini. It's full of rich antioxidants. Mmm. Katie: Thanks. Henry: It's a nice view. Katie: Yeah, it used to be. Mike built that deck for us to enjoy with our kids one day. Henry: Well, here's to good lumber, and common sense, and good, old-fashioned forgiveness. Katie: Here's to new beginnings. Did you finish reading? Henry: Yeah, right before I mixed these babies. Katie: Oh, that's strong! Henry: Well, your book inspired me. It did. Katie: What did you think? Henry: I think it's going to kick things up a notch around here. Katie: Did you like it? Henry: I had a better question. Do you plan on staying in town? Katie: Oakdale's home. Why should I hang my head in shame? Henry: Or hide out for fear of retribution. Katie: Everybody else has gone on with their lives, Henry. They all get to be happy. Why can't I? Henry: Pardon me for pointing out the obvious, but you don't look too happy. And Mike? And Jack? They're not exactly jolly either. Katie: Yeah well, this is about Simon. I'm so sick of that man getting away with every little thing he does. He and Carly are going on like nothing ever happened. So, hopefully, once this new edition hits the stores, it will be a nice little wake-up call. And they'll be miserable, too. Henry: What's the point of having a bestseller and getting revenge, if it makes you as miserable as they are?
Henry: This is quite a hit list. Katie: They're called characters, Henry. Henry: Really? Because the character of Jack Snyder seems an awful lot like the real Jack Snyder. He's got three kids, a racy little wife. That woman sees more action than a thoroughbred. Katie: God, that's a good line. I should have used that. Henry: And what about Mike? Do you want to kick the guy when he's down? Katie: Well, I love Mike. This isn't about Mike. He's not in my life anymore. He left me all alone, Henry. Henry: That's a subject I'm somewhat familiar with. I know you want to step back and take some swings, right? Katie: You felt that way about me? Henry: Figuratively speaking, yeah. And then I realized that if hurt you, I would just be hurting myself more. And I couldn't have that. I know if my bubbles ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. Katie: Well, bubbles ain't happy. Henry: Without Mike. Katie: I miss him so much, Henry. Henry: Then why, if you love him, why hurt him with this book? Please, tell me why? He has his pride, Katie. And the only thing he loves, almost as much as you, is his privacy. I'm telling you, if this thing goes to print, I'm guessing that any shot that you had at getting Mike is gone.
