Scene 1:
Location: Frasier Cottage
Scene: Living Room

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Katie: I feel almost guilty, staying in bed all morning.
>> Simon: Well, at least we weren't doing anything useless like sleeping. Remind me again why we got up at all?
>> Katie: Food! I don't know about you, but I can't keep up that pace without any nourishment. And besides, I have places to go and people to see.
>> Simon: Plans I know nothing about?
>> Katie: I have to tell Margo about Australia.
>> Simon: Oh. How do you think she's going to take it?
>> Katie: She's going to grill me, then shed a few tears, and then ultimately, she'll say, "Whatever makes you happy, Katie."
>> Simon: I'm glad that's still me. Okay, go upstairs, have a shower. I'm going to get some coffee, put some food on.
>> Katie: Aw!
>> Simon: Bacon and eggs?
>> Katie: Sounds good.
[ Simon steps in blood ]
>> Katie: Oh, my god! Simon! [ Simon races upstairs ]

Scene 2:
Location: Frasier Cottage
Scene: Living Room

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER

>> Katie: Faux? Faux? Come on, where are you, baby?
>> Simon: Wait, wait, wait. Let's have a seat, come here.
>> Katie: I don't understand how this could happen. The cage was wide open. How did she get out?
>> Simon: It was bound to happen sooner or later, right?
>> Katie: What do you mean?
>> Simon: It's just, I've noticed that the latch isn't properly on the cage sometimes, that's all.
>> Katie: Oh, god. How could I be so careless?
>> Simon: Baby, don't blame yourself. Just don't get upset.
>> Katie: You think she got outside?
>> Simon: I don't know. Look, I'm going to look down here. Why don't you go back upstairs --
>> Katie: I've looked everywhere upstairs. She's nowhere to be found.
>> Simon: Maybe go outside, have a look outside. If I find any sign of her in here, I'll come straight out.
>> Katie: Okay. She wouldn't have gone too far. She's in love with Snickers. She's gotta be here somewhere. Faux?
[ Simon looking at blood and broken picture frame on floor ]
>> Simon: How could you do this, Pilar?

Scene 3:
Location: Frasier Cottage
Scene: Living Room

SIMON FRASIER, KATIE FRASIER, PILAR DOMINGO

>> Katie: Did you find Faux?
>> Simon: No, babe. Sorry, no sign of her.
>> Katie: Oh god. I don't know what to do. I guess I'll just go look upstairs some more.
>> Simon: Good. And I'm going to continue to look down here, okay.
>> Katie: And then maybe we can look in the back, okay?
>> Simon: Absolutely.
>> Katie: She's going to turn up. She has to.
[ Simon goes outside to call Pilar ]
>> Pilar: Hello?
>> Simon: Are you out of your mind?
>> Pilar: You got my message. Good.
>> Simon: What do you want?
>> Pilar: Your attention. I thought you needed to know I'm serious about this, Simon. Failure is not an option.
>> Simon: All right, why don't you get it into your thick head -- Mike doesn't want you. Probably because you're a sick and twisted psycho.
>> Pilar: Watch what you say to me. And find a way to get through to Mike.
Because it would be a shame if another tragic accident befell someone else you love.
>> Simon: Where are you?
>> Pilar: The courtyard, over near the old library.
>> Simon: Katie?
>> Katie: You found her?
>> Simon: No, babe, I haven't. Look, I'm just going to jump in the car and go down the road and see if I can see her, okay?

Scene 4:
Location: Oakdale
Scene: Courtyard by the Old Library

SIMON FRASIER, PILAR DOMINGO

>> Pilar: It's a beautiful day today, don't you think? There's something in the air. Like anything can happen.
>> Simon: What the hell is wrong with you?
>> Pilar: I'm starving. We should have a picnic. You know what would be good? A big bowl of rabbit stew.
>> Simon: You have gone way too far this time, Pilar.

Scene 5:
Location: Frasier Cottage
Scene: Living Room

KATIE FRASIER, HENRY COLEMAN

>> Katie: I thought Faux was happy here.
>> Henry: She was.
>> Katie: Maybe it's a sign, you know? That it's time to move on. Not just for her, but for me, too.
>> Henry: You wanna repeat that?
>> Katie: Simon and I, we've decided to leave.
>> Henry: Like a little vacation? Little getaway?
>> Katie: We're moving to Australia.
>> Henry: Katie, tell me this is some kind of bad joke to shock me out of my bunny grief.
>> Katie: No, please, you're going to make me start crying.
>> Henry: Well, here, you should cry. You should cry oceans of tears for even thinking of that. Australia's too far away.
>> Katie: I know it's far, but --
>> Henry: And don't tell me, "oh, we'll talk, we'll write, we'll call and there's always email," no, no, you and I both know that you belong here, with me. Come on, who's going to keep me on the straight and narrow, huh? While still encouraging and admiring my evil genius ways? We're a team, we're a team, we're a team, Bubbles. You don't just break up a team like this. It doesn't come along every day.
>> Katie: I know, but Simon and I, we need a new start.
>> Henry: Then, get a new hairdo. Have a baby. Whatever, come on, going on the other side of the planet? For a new start? Criminals do this sort of thing, Katherine. No, all right, no. You're not going. No, sorry.
>> Katie: I knew you were going to say that.
>> Henry: Well, then you must also know that you need to give me a better reason for leaving me. v >> Katie: I need to live in Simon's world for a while, okay? He's lived in mine for such a long time, and I need to repay the favor. You know, as scared as you are, sometimes you just have to venture out on your own. A door opens, and you have to -- see what's on the other side.
>> Henry: You did not just say that.
>> Katie: I'm just saying -- I want you to stay in the cottage. And, I need you to do some things for me, okay? Take care of Snickers, and keep looking for Faux. Can you do that?
>> Henry: All right, I'll build her a little bunny door. She can come back easier that way. I'll make sure she stays when she gets --
>> Katie: I'm going to miss you so much!
>> Henry: I hate Simon. I really do.
>> Katie: Don't say that.
>> Henry: No, he's taking you away from me. I know he's a good guy and all, that sort of thing --
>> Katie: He is a changed, different man. He's free.
>> Henry: Yeah, but --
>> Katie: Yeah, but nothing. Okay, you're right, Henry. I don't know what's going to happen for Simon and me. But I do know one thing. He is never going to let me down again.

Scene 6:
Location: Oakdale
Scene: Courtyard by the Old Library

SIMON FRASIER, PILAR DOMINGO

>> Pilar: I came here to do your dirty work, and you got what you wanted. I drove Katie right back into your arms.
>> Simon: I've never seen a messier job.
>> Pilar: You know how much you love her? That's nothing compared to how I feel about Michael.
>> Simon: Well, I really do hope he's got his insurance up to date.
>> Pilar: He loves me, too. We have a history together. All you have to do is find a way to make him remember it. We have to make him see how good he and I can be again.
>> Simon: Woah, we? Pilar, there is no we. Our business is done, okay? Over.
>> Pilar: Some things are never over, Simon. Especially if one of the parties involved goes away unsatisfied. That could be very unhealthy for the people in your life.
>> Simon: No, no, no, no. If you come near my house, you come near my wife, and you will regret it.
>> Pilar: I don't have regrets, Simon. But you might, after I have a conversation with Katie.
>> Simon: Oh, you want to have a conversation with her, do you? You want to talk to my wife? Fine, do it. I think you know the number. I mean, after all the lies you've been spewing, do you really think she's going to believe a word you're saying? >> Pilar: Yeah, I'll make her believe.
>> Simon: And if Katie knows the truth, then Mike's going to know the truth. Do you really think that's going to make him love you?
>> Pilar: Well, I'll make him understand. I'll tell him that you didn't give me any choice. I'm not the only one who lied to get what they wanted.
>> Simon: No! But you will be the only one who suffers for it. And you will suffer. So, do you want to come back to the cottage and tell Katie the truth?

Scene 7:
Location: Oakdale
Scene: Courtyard by the Old Library

SIMON FRASIER, PILAR DOMINGO

>> Simon: Get it through your thick head, Pilar. Mike doesn't want you.
>> Pilar: Make him want me.
>> Simon: Whatever you had with Mike is dead. It's buried. Say a prayer for it and get the hell out of town. You got your money. Just be happy for that.
>> Pilar: You really don't think I'll tell Katie how I earned it?
>> Simon: Just keep testing me, and you'll wish you were dead.
>> Pilar: We'll see.
