[ scene_break ] adam : hello , stuart , it 's your brother . um -- i did n't call you to wish you happy new year yesterday , and so i 'm -- i 'm calling today to wish you happy new year . perhaps , if you get this message in time , you could come up for a cup of coffee , or whatever . i 'm sure i can fit you into my schedule . [ adam hangs up ] adam : well , look who 's here . what do you want , hannah ? what 's this ? hannah : zach 's head on a platter , just like you asked , boss .

[ scene_break ] officer : have a seat . kendall : zach , you should n't be out of the hospital . zach : and you should n't be here . you should be at home with our kids . kendall : please -- please , please , do n't do this . zach : why did n't you listen to me ? kendall : i told you that i needed to do this . zach : yeah , you told me . you have no idea what you 've done , do you ? you 've thrown away everything . kendall : please do n't look at me like that . zach : how many times did i ask you ? how many times did i beg you to wait ? kendall : i could n't . zach : why not ? kendall : greenlee was sick . she almost died . zach : she 's not the problem . you 're the problem . greenlee 's fine with everything . so is aidan , so what are you doing ? why are you doing this ? kendall : to clear my conscience . is that good enough ? zach : no , that 's good enough . so now you got a clear conscience , and you threw away your family . that does n't even make sense to me . jack : i 'm sorry to interrupt , but i 'd like to speak to kendall . zach : why ? jack : kendall , i 'd like to represent you , if you would allow me to . kendall : i do n't know what to say . jack : kendall , two of my daughters made mistakes , you and greenlee . but that does n't change who you are to me , and it never will . [ scene_break ] aidan : so , jack is representing kendall , huh ? wow . greenlee : yeah , i know . it 's like the whole world has done a 180 . i 'm friends with zach , you 're with kendall -- aidan : excuse me ? greenlee : what ? aidan : well , i 'm with you , unless you 've demoted me since last night . [ greenlee chuckles ] greenlee : i mean you 're friends with kendall . what did you think i meant ? [ greenlee chuckles ] aidan : huh . nothing . huh . do n't worry about it . how are you feeling ? greenlee : oh , aidan , i feel fine . i wish everyone would stop asking me that . aidan : well , why would they ? you were trapped in a hole for five weeks with no food and no water . greenlee : i 'm fine . aidan : no , you 're not fine . greenlee : oh -- aidan : but you do look good enough to kiss , though . greenlee : when is this going to be over , aidan ? aidan : well , the good news is that -- um -- kendall is turning herself in , so that should get you off the hook for most of the charges . greenlee : right , and that 's supposed to make me feel better ? i just -- i do n't understand why she 's doing this . i -- i do n't know what she 's thinking . aidan : she was thinking of you . maybe she ca n't -- she ca n't live with what she did to you . greenlee : but i forgave her for all of that . aidan : maybe it 's not that simple for her . all right ? anyway , i really need to get down to the police station , so -- i need to see what 's going on . so do n't you start jumping around on this bed like a cheeky monkey , will you ? greenlee : yes , ok , boss . i 'm so lucky to have you . aidan : see you soon . [ scene_break ] hannah : before zach disappeared , he ordered me to break chandler enterprises in pieces . so i sold every last chandler corporation at bargain price . adam : to whom ? hannah : dummy corporations which i control . and now they 're all yours , adam . and they wo n't cost you half of what they should . so once you reclaim your companies , you can piece them together , and voilà , chandler enterprises rises from the ashes . adam : how careful were you ? hannah : ok , very . zach wo n't have a clue what happened . you know , see , he 's had this little pesky thing called staying alive to deal with , hmm ? adam : how about his pit bull , josh ? hannah : he wo n't find any trails leading back to you or to me . adam : how can you be sure of that ? hannah : you know what , adam ? i cover my tracks . i spent my whole life doing just that . adam : yeah . well , this is insulting . chandler enterprises stock is worth 10 times what this says . hannah : yes , that 's the idea . sell it cheap , buy it back cheaper . it 's all right there in your hands , adam . smile . adam : hmm . hannah : zach wo n't have a clue . he wo n't , until it 's too late .

[ scene_break ] zach : i do n't like it , any of it . jack : zach , if you have a problem with my representing kendall -- zach : i have a problem with the whole thing , jack . jack : i understand that . but kendall 's already turned herself in . you ca n't turn back the clock on that . kendall : i would be honored to have you represent me , jack . jack : thank you . zach : oh , good . so everyone 's happy . that 's great . jack : here 's how we start . i find out what the charges are against you , and i build a strategy to knock some of them down . kendall : ok . zach : is that all right with you , or you going to insist on jail time ? kendall : i do n't want to go to jail . i just want to do the right thing . zach : it 's a little complicated now . kendall : zach , come on . jack : i 've already arranged for bail , ok ? officer hayes , if you would escort mrs. slater to the front to be processed -- i 'll see you up there . kendall : thank you , jack . jack : you 're welcome . kendall : hey , zach -- zach : what ? kendall : i hope that you understand . zach : what are you thinking ? jack : well , it 's tough to get specific at this point . there 's a couple of judges we could draw . both of them are fair , but i 'll require a different game plan for each one . zach : but you will have a game plan ? jack : yes , zach , of course , i will . zach : of course , you will . she wants to take responsibility for all of that , i do n't know why . but she 's not going to prison . i 'm not going to lose her , not again , jack , ok ? [ scene_break ] richie : try not to look so excited . michael : oh , no , no , no . of course . i know how difficult this must be for you . richie : i 'm sure it 's just breaking your heart . michael : when ? richie : next week . michael : could you be more specific ? richie : i 'm going to die , doc . so quit trying to act so damn concerned . i know you hate my guts . michael : i do n't hate you , novak . richie : oh , sure you do . and you know what ? i feel the same way . in fact , if we were on the outside , and i had some of my strength left , i 'd take that dome head of yours , and i 'd crush it like a melon . so come on , doc , it 's confession time . tell me how you really feel . michael : all right . i think you 're a dangerous sociopath . richie : boo - yah ! there it is . keep it coming , doc . i 'm loving this . michael : and your death , whenever it may come , will be a relief to anyone who has ever had the displeasure of knowing you . richie : especially to the beneficiary of my insurance policy ? michael : that was our deal , richie . you get released from prison , i get the money . richie : oh . do you still think you 're getting all that money ? michael : what are you talking about ? richie : well , i do n't need you anymore , doc , so the deal 's off . i 've named a new beneficiary . babe chandler . [ scene_break ] j.r. : i thought you were done with richie novak . babe : i 'm not seeing him if that 's what you 're thinking . it 's just a little gift , that 's all . why are you making a big deal out of it ? j.r. : ok . ok , fine . it 's no big deal . babe : thank you . j.r. : but to save you all the time and trouble , why do n't i just go ahead and run it over to him ? he 's -- he 's still at the psych ward , if i 'm not mistaken . yeah , that 's what i 'll do . i 'll go ahead and take it to him right now . babe : j.r. , wait . do n't .

[ hannah chuckles ] hannah : he 's looking at his wife , kendall , and his precious family . so it was easy . adam : yeah , so i see . you are a remarkably clever woman , hannah . hannah : yeah , so i 've been told . adam : this business with slater is done , so there will be other challenges ahead . i could certainly use someone like you to help me deal with them . i think we 'd make a very good team . hannah : are you making me an offer ? or are you just trying to get me into bed ? adam : no , it 's an offer , for now . i have it -- why do n't we -- why do n't we drink to it ? let 's have a toast . to chandler enterprises , the second coming . hannah : hmm .

[ scene_break ] aidan : so what are kendall 's chances here ? i mean , really ? jack : it 's difficult to say . it 's going to be a very high - profile case because of who kendall is and the circumstances surrounding it . aidan : ok , do n't be a lawyer , all right ? i mean , just -- what 's -- what 's your best guess ? jack : best guess ? aidan : uh - huh . jack : 50/50 , aidan . jail or community service . it 's -- huh -- kind of depends on the d.a . 's mood . aidan : damn . oh , man . jack : yeah . damn , indeed . it 's a real mess , is n't it ? although , i must say , you should be commended . not so long ago , you would 've been screaming for kendall 's head on a stick . aidan : well , a lot 's changed since then . jack : obviously . aidan : jack , we 've known each other a long time . if you got something to say , why do n't you just come out and say it ? jack : you and kendall -- aidan : yeah ? what about me and kendall ? jack : how about you tell me ? [ scene_break ] kendall : did you hear spike snoring ? zach : no , i did n't . kendall : zach , please talk to me . zach : what do you want to talk about ? what do you want to say ? i dreamed about this evening . my first night home with the boys -- i dreamed about that every day in that hole . kendall : i know -- zach : you do n't know . you ca n't . you do n't know what i 'm feeling right now . kendall : well , then tell me . zach : i know you made a promise to god because you wanted to come clean . i think that 's very nice . what about your promise to me ? what about your promise to those little boys ? they 're your responsibility . that is your family . kendall : i love my boys . i love you . you have no idea how -- how -- zach : no , you have no idea . you have no idea what it was like in that hole , running out of food , running out of water , not knowing if i would see you , ian , spike ever again . and you know what ? i did a little bargaining , too . i bargained with god . i said , `` if you get me out of here -- if you get us out of here , i will never be separated from my family ever again . `` kendall : please , just -- zach : because i should 've died that day . i should 've died when the car hit me , i should 've died when i fell into that hole , but i did n't . i kept fighting . you know why ? i wanted to be there for those boys , i wanted to see them grow up , and i fought for the privilege of seeing your face , the privilege of seeing you . and for what ? what , i crawled out so i can be here and hold your hand when they tell you how many years you 're going to spend in prison ? kendall : why ca n't you understand how -- zach : i do understand , kendall . i do . that 's the problem . i understand that nothing has changed . it 's all exactly the way it was when i went missing . you think you can do everything on your own . well , you ca n't . that 's how we ended up right here . what are we ? hmm ? we 're not a team . so what are we ? kendall : zach , we are a team . zach : that 's not the way i see it . kendall : well , i 'm sorry for that . zach : yeah ? that 's nice . kendall : i am . zach : i need to know where this is coming from . kendall : i told you where this is coming from . zach : you told me what ? i 'm telling you -- greenlee forgives you , aidan forgives you , so there is something you 're not telling me . what is it ? kendall : i ca n't do this anymore , i -- zach : tell me . [ scene_break ] aidan : what are you getting at , jack ? jack : i 'm not sure , aidan -- just a feeling that there 's more to this story than anyone 's telling me . aidan : like what ? jack : i understand how you and kendall have gotten close . aidan : yeah , by digging our way through ice and snow to find our loved ones . that 's how close we got . jack : i 'm not insinuating anything here . aidan : listen , jack , i love your daughter more than anything in the whole world . there 's nothing that i would n't do for her . i would jump in front of a bullet for her . i would exchange my life for hers in a heartbeat . so anything you 're feeling or think you know other than that is irrelevant . jack : ok . aidan : uh -- that was n't very convincing . jack : let me make sure you 're clear on a couple of things . greenlee and i have n't always done the father / daughter thing very well -- sometimes it 's been my fault , sometimes hers . but through this whole ordeal , one thing i 've realized is that her dreams , her happiness , are the most important things to me . i like you . i think you 're a good man . but that 's my little girl , son . and anyone breaks her heart -- i mean anyone at all -- they are going to find in me the worst enemy they can imagine . aidan : and i would n't expect anything less . jack : so we understand each other ? aidan : yes , sir , we do . [ scene_break ] joe : i 'll give aidan a set of instructions and , of course , you 're going to be coming back here for tests anyway , starting monday . greenlee : why ? joe : why ? because we 'd miss you otherwise . greenlee : yeah -- liar . joe : uh - huh . so , you stick with the program , and we 'll let you go home . is that a deal ? greenlee : deal . thank you , joe . i just -- i feel like it 's a new beginning for me , you know ? like i got through this and now everything in front of me is just going to be great . does that sound crazy ? joe : wish all my patients were as optimistic as you are . greenlee : hmm . well , maybe they just did n't have as much reason to be . joe : hmm . oh , rebecca ? i want to have some additional blood work done on greenlee smythe . there 's something about the labs that 's not adding up . rebecca : all right , ok . joe : yeah . [ scene_break ] j.r. : so you do n't want me going anywhere near richie ? babe : no . j.r. : why ? babe : why ? because it 's none of your business -- that 's why . remember the new j.r. chandler , respecting limits ? j.r. : babe , listen , i know my place , ok ? i 'm your ex - husband . yeah , i 've made plenty of mistakes . i have no rights , except i 'm the father of a son who i do n't want anywhere near that lowlife . babe : why are you making such a big deal out of this ? yes , at one time , i was attracted to a guy named wes , but -- j.r. : and he turned out to be annie 's brother , richie . and in spite of all his lies , you still have feelings for him . my god , babe , did n't you learn anything by being with me ? babe : well , i 'm not planning on settling down with either one of you . j.r. : fine . so drop your present in the mail for richie and let him die his natural death , be done with it . you got a problem with that ? babe : i 'm not as callous as you are . j.r. : that 's right , i forgot -- you have feelings for this pathetic bum . babe : oh , go to hell . j.r. : i probably will . and as far as richie novak is concerned , he 's trouble , and i do n't want you going anywhere near him , and i definitely do n't want my son around him . babe : you do n't have a say in my life anymore , j.r . j.r. : on this issue , i 'm giving myself the say . you stay away from him , babe . i mean it .
