FRIDAY, JUNE 1, 2001
Scene 1:
Location: Oakdale Police Department Precinct 5 Station.
Scene: Squad room.
SIMON FRAISER AND CASS WINTHROP
>> Simon: Who does that judge work for? When I want to stay in the
country, they can't get rid of me fast enough. And now I actually want to
leave, they force me to stick around.
>> Cass: Doing 20 days of community service is a hell of lot better than 30
days in the slammer.
>> Simon: All I can say is, Craig better make good on that dough. And
while he's at it, throw in some hazard pay for smuggling in that note.
>> Cass: Simon -- I didn't hear that.
>> Simon: Yeah, what else haven't you heard?
>> Cass: Look, the less I know, the safer you are. But I will say this,
whatever's going on, he seems pretty pleased with his progress.
>> Simon: Good. Fine, maybe I'll get my money after all.
>> Cass: First things first. Right now, you wait for them to bring you your
belongings. I still have some paperwork to fill out before you're free to walk
to out of here.
MARGO HUGHES AND SIMON FRAISER
>> Margo: Well, well, well -- my favorite brother-in-law is our special guest
once again.
>> Simon: Yep.
>> Margo: I'd say it's good to see you, but I've got so much trouble around
here, I don't want to compound it with lies.
>> Simon: I'm just waiting for somebody to bring me my things, and then
I'm outta here.
>> Margo: Ah. Where's Katie, hocking gold fillings to make your bail?
>> Simon: Don't worry. Katie's got absolutely nothing to do with this. She's
away at the moment, probably stirring up trouble for some other
unsuspecting bloke.
Scene 2:
Location: Oakdale Police Department Precinct 5 Station.
Scene: Squad room.
MARGO HUGHES AND SIMON FRAISER
>> Simon: Yeah? Well, to tell you the truth, it's actually been a little bit too
quiet with Katie gone. You know, I actually considered renting one of those
-- those yappy little Yorkshire Terriers that come and nip at your ankles
every now and again.
>> Margo: Simon, I've known since the beginning, ever since Katie entered
into this sham of a marriage of yours, that you really didn't care a lot about
her. You thought that she had somehow tricked you, but actually, she did
you a big favor. She gave up a lot just to keep you in this country. So you
would think, all things considered, that you could be just a little bit
concerned when she shows up missing!
>> Simon: I told you she is not missing. Margo, she left on her own accord,
and she will be back soon.
>> Margo: Listen to you. She -- she -- she could be hurt, and you don't even
care!
>> Simon: She's gonna be fine! All right? If anyone knows how to land on
your feet, it's your sister. Now -
Scene 3:
Location: Oakdale Police Department Precinct 5 Station.
Scene: Squad room.
MARGO HUGHES AND SIMON FRAISER
>> Margo: Ah, thanks.
>> Simon: Well, well, personal delivery straight from the top?
>> Margo: Yeah, your lucky day. Ah, ah, ah. I have a few questions for
you.
>> Simon: I don't suppose I can refuse to answer?
>> Margo: No, not if you want to get out of here anytime soon.
>> Simon: I do. Fine, shoot.
>> Margo: Shoot.
>> Simon: So to speak.
>> Margo: It says that you spent the night in jail because you decked my
brother?
>> Simon: Yes, I did. Well, we had a little argument, so I hit him. Me and
Craig are on the outs anyway.
>> Margo: So how is it that his lawyer's here to spring you?
>> Simon: What, Cass can't have more than one client?
>> Margo: It also says here that you list your address as the Lakeview.
>> Simon: Yep, last time I checked.
>> Margo: And you're going back there now?
>> Simon: Uh-huh, yep.
>> Margo: So Craig Montgomery is going to let you waltz back into his
suite, he going to pick up the tab for you after you decked him? What's the
matter, Frasier? Nobody give you a quick answer for that one?
>> Simon: Look, Margo, it's really not that complicated. We had a little
difference. He pushed the wrong buttons. I hit him, and now I'm doing
community service. End of story.
>> Margo: Yeah, we'll see.
