Scene I:
Location: Lakeview Towers Hotel
Scene: Katie & Simon's Room in Craig's Suite

>> Simon: Why don't you go and put that dress on, put on some shoes that match it, and meet me back here in 20 minutes?
>> Katie: Simon, we can't afford --
>> Simon: 20 minutes!
>> Katie -- the benefit.
>> Simon: 20 minutes, and not a second sooner. Go. Look gorgeous, as usual.

Scene 2:
Location: Katie & Simon's Room in Craig's Suite

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Simon: Welcome to the Frasier holiday benefit extravaganza.
We have fireworks -
[ Simon throws confetti in the air ]
>> Katie: Ooh, ahh!
>> Simon: -- Fine dining.
>> Katie: How nice.
>> Simon: Don't touch.
>> Katie: Okay.
>> Simon: And for your listening pleasure, we have music.
[ Simon picks up his guitar and starts strumming ]
>>Simon: This is really lame.
>> Katie: No, it's not.
>> Simon: Look, I thought this would be fun. God, people should see you in this dress, not be stuck inside here with me.
>> Katie: Hey, you and I had fun in a dungeon. So I don't wanna hear you getting all depressed in this beautiful, luxury suite.
>> Simon: Yeah, it was downstairs in an opera house but, hey, I get your point.
>> Katie: How many times have I told you this? You've made all my wishes come true, so stop it.
>> Simon: Yeah, but -- don't you want our own penthouse? A car? An island with your own name on it?
>> Katie: I don't know about you, but I was pretty happy in the garage. But if you wanna buy me an island, then I guess that'll be okay. Just make sure there's no Henry Coleman on it.
>> Simon: Hey, by the way, have you called the Coast Guard yet?
>> Katie: It's on my list of things to do.
>> Simon: Okay.
>> Katie: So, what's for dinner?
>> Simon: Ahh, ahh.
>> Katie: Mmm.
>> Simon: Peanut butter sandwiches.
>> Katie: Great. Then they won't get cold. Just in case you wanted to --
>> Simon: Oh, yes, I do.
[ Knock on the door ]
>>Simon: Tell me you are not expecting someone.
>> Katie: Why don't you run a nice, little bubble bath for us?
>> Simon: I'll just get the door.
>> Katie: No, no, no, I'll get it. Don't worry. Please don't be Dahlia. Lily?
>> Lily: Katie, hi, I'm so sorry to interrupt. It's important. You look so pretty. I'm sorry. Excuse me.
>> Katie: Thank you.
>> Lily: Rose is missing.
>> Katie: Great idea, wrong sister.

Scene 3:
Location: Katie & Simon's Room in Craig's Suite

SIMON FRASIER, LILY WALSH SNYDER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Lily: Rose would not just run off like not after she asked me to pretend to be her at the benefit. You know Rose. She would wanna stick around to find out what happened. We have to find her.
>> Simon: Now?
>> Lily: I'm sorry. I just don't want the trail to go cold. And the police said we cannot do anything until she's been missing for 48 hours -- unless we come up with something to convince them.
>> Katie: Don't bother. I know the drill. Just go ahead. You feel responsible. You can help.
>> Simon: Katie? Katie, why don't you come with us. You're kinda like the bloodhound, anyway. You can help.
>> Katie: Really?
>> Simon: Absolutely.
[ Phone rings ]
>> Katie: Oh, no, no! Hey, I'll get it! You guys talk. It's okay.
[ Katie on the phone ]
>> Katie: Hello? Yes, I've left several messages for you, actually.
Now would be fine. Great.
[ Katie hangs up the phone ]
>>Katie: You know that problem we've been having with the shower? It's gonna get fixed. So why don't you guys go make the world safe for Rose again, and I'll entertain the plumber.
>> Simon: You're not gonna come with us? Come --
>> Katie: No, I'll be fine.
>> Simon: You're up to something, aren't you? I know it.
>> Katie: Don't run off to Malta without calling home first. Bye, Lily. Good luck. Dahlia, you will not be sorry you called. Simon thinks we can't afford the good life. I'm gonna give it to him on a silver platter.

Scene 4:
Location: Rose's House

SIMON FRASIER, LILY WALSH SNYDER

>> Lily: If Rose was so in love with Vince, why didn't she take his letters with her?
>> Simon: I don't know.
>> Lily: It doesn't make sense.
>> Simon: All right. Okay, maybe we're on the wrong track here then. Um -- all right, Rose is a pack rat, right? Yeah, remember her dressing room in Atlantic City? You couldn't move because of all the souvenirs. But look at all this stuff here.
>> Lily: So what are you saying?
>> Simon: Okay, her clothes are gone. Her makeup is gone. Nothing else that really means anything to her.
>> Lily: That's what I said to Paul. She did not do her own packing.
>> Simon: All right, so we have to find something that we know would mean something to her. Then the cops will have to believe us.
>> Lily: What about a picture of Luke?
>> Simon: No, no, she'd keep that in her wallet, wouldn't she? It has to be something else -- something unique, one of a kind.
>> Lily: I know. I know! Here it is. This is Anna Marie's ring.
>> Simon: Who's that?
>> Lily: This is her mother's ring, given to her by Joe. There is no way she would leave without this. This is her most prized possession.
>> Simon: Okay, so somebody else did do her packing for her.
>> Lily: Whoever did that kidnapped her.

Scene 5:
Location: Rose's House

SIMON FRASIER, LILY WALSH SNYDER

>> Lily: You think that'll be enough? Mrs. D'Angelo's ring?
>> Simon: Did Rose have a picture of Vince?
>> Lily: Yes, she did. He sent her one -- or whoever's behind this.
>> Simon: All right, well, that's good. If we can find a picture of Vince, then we can question the waitress at the diner. See if it really was Vince who took her out of there. If it wasn't, then we have a case that the cops can't ignore.
>> Lily: She's in big trouble.
>> Simon: I am sure who is behind this is only trying to discredit her, not hurt her. Okay? So let's find this picture.
>> Lily: You know what? I'll find the picture. Simon, you should go home to Katie.
>> Simon: I can stay. Are you sure?
>> Lily: Yeah. I'm -- I'm so grateful -- I am -- for your help. And I knew when Rose went missing, I could count on you, 'cause you're my friend. So you go home, and I'll look for the picture. Go.
>> Simon: If you need anything, just --
>> Lily: I'll call. I will.
>> Simon: It's gonna be fine.
>> Lily: All right, Vince, where are you?

Scene 6:
Location: Katie & Simon's Room

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Katie: hey, not now, handsome. I'm dreaming about my husband.
>> Simon: Oh. Is it the husband who stays by his wife's side and doesn't run off to find a missing woman?
>> Katie: No, it's the one where my husband knows that I would never leave him for anyone else. Even a man who showered me with buckets of diamonds and never left the house.
>> Simon: So you don't want the legless jeweler?
>> Katie: I just want you to know how proud I am of you. And I don't need any of that.
>> Simon: Good.
>> Katie: You don't have to prove anything to me, you know. I'm very happy just the way I am.
>> Simon: So you wouldn't be happier if I, say, did -- this? Or what about this? Or how about this?
