SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Katie: Simon? Can you hear me?
>> Simon: No one's voice ever sounded so sweet.
>> Katie: You too, sweetheart. Where are you?
>> Simon: In probably one of the ugliest government buildings you're ever likely to see. You know what the best part is? Everything I touch is marked with "Property of the United States of America."
>> Katie: You're back? In the states? Where?
>> Simon: I'm in Florida. Just until we get clear immigration, and then I'm gonna be home to you.
>> Katie: When?
>> Simon: Soon as we cut through all the red tape. Tomorrow, maybe a few days later. Katie?
>> Katie: I'm sorry. I'm here. I'm just happy you're back.
>> Simon: Look, when I found out that you had left Avanya --
>> Katie: I know. I'm so sorry that I left without telling you.
>> Simon: Look, I heard about Margo. How is she?
>> Katie: She's sick. She's really sick.
>> Simon: She's tough. She's gonna be all right. Isn't she?
>> Katie: I think so. She's having an operation tomorrow that we're hoping will save her life. I wish you were here right now.
>> Simon: Me, too, baby. Me, too.
>> Katie: Simon, there's something about this operation that I need to tell you.
>> Simon: Five minutes! Listen, I'm about to be debriefed. In case I get yanked away, I love you so much. I was worried sick when I found out that you left Avanya. I was just so afraid that you weren't gonna get out of the country. I don't ever wanna go through that again.
>> Katie: Me, either.
>> Simon: So what were you gonna say about this operation?
>> Katie: Oh, nothing. Honey, just listen -- don't worry about me, please. I'm fine. I'm just fine.

Scene: Government Building/Hospital

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER, TOM HUGHES

>> Katie: I can't wait to see you, Simon.
>> Simon: Listen, as soon as I find out what flight I'm on, I'll give you a call. Are you staying at the Lakeview?
>> Katie: No, actually, I think I'm gonna stay here tonight, at the hospital.
>> Simon: Is it really that bad?
>> Katie: Margo needs me. Tom has to stay with Casey tonight, and I know she doesn't want to be alone.
>> Simon: So where are you gonna sleep?
>> Katie: A chair or something. Hey, it'll be better than the bed I slept on in Avanya, right? So, you'll leave all of your flight information with Craig?
>> Simon: Can you come and pick me up from the airport?
>> Katie: Yeah -- yeah, I'll be there.
>> Simon: I can't wait to see you, okay? And give Margo a big kiss for me, please. I love you, baby -- so much.
>> Katie: Me, too. Me, too. Okay, you better get to that debriefing. Bye. Hey, listen, the Coast Guard found Simon and Rose and Lucinda, and they're all heading back. Isn't that great?
>> Tom: Yeah, I heard. I didn't just hear you lying to Simon about what you're doing here, did I?
>> Katie: He was so happy and relieved to know that I got back okay. I didn't want to throw him back into worrying again.
>> Tom: Well, he's gonna know tomorrow.
>> Katie: I know, so I gave him the night off. And listen, maybe by the time he gets back, all of this will be done and everything will be just fine.
