that we killed him off.

should know

to bring him back

just get him back.

00:03:04.700 --> 00:03:06.667
Look, he went to New York.

00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:08.867
He wanted to do a Broadway play.

82
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.834
You really think he's gonna be
interested in this?

83
00:03:11.967 --> 00:03:14.200
I don't think he would be.

84
00:03:14.333 --> 00:03:16.533
What was that?

85
00:03:16.667 --> 00:03:19.133
I don't think he would
come back.

86
00:03:19.266 --> 00:03:21.200
Who are you again?

87
00:03:21.333 --> 00:03:22.834
Maggie Coleman.

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:26.367
The head writer for
the last four years?

89
00:03:26.500 --> 00:03:30.033
And hopefully my replacement
when I retire.

90
00:03:30.166 --> 00:03:31.300
Ah.

91
00:03:31.433 --> 00:03:32.567
Right.

92
00:03:32.700 --> 00:03:35.233
Well, I heard that Darin's back
in Los Angeles

93
00:03:35.367 --> 00:03:37.700
licking his wounds
after his play flopped.

94
00:03:37.834 --> 00:03:40.633
So there is a good chance
that we could get him back.

95
00:03:40.767 --> 00:03:43.633
And Alice, since you gave him
his first break,

96
00:03:43.767 --> 00:03:45.867
that should give you
some leverage.

97
00:03:47.600 --> 00:03:49.567
We'll do whatever it takes.
Right, Maggie?

98
00:03:51.834 --> 00:03:52.834
Yes.

99
00:04:02.934 --> 00:04:05.533
Now is just a moment.

100
00:04:05.667 --> 00:04:11.400
But forever, is a long,
long time.

101
00:04:11.533 --> 00:04:14.567
I didn't want to tell you this,

102
00:04:14.700 --> 00:04:17.900
but my mother has been seeing
your father...

103
00:04:23.333 --> 00:04:25.800
So, what exactly did you mean
when you said

104
00:04:25.934 --> 00:04:28.967
we'd do "whatever it takes?"

105
00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:31.600
Oh, whatever it takes
to save the show.

106
00:04:31.734 --> 00:04:33.700
Honey, I know you're not happy
about this,

107
00:04:33.834 --> 00:04:36.300
but I actually think Gregory
is right.

108
00:04:36.433 --> 00:04:39.767
Bringing Darin back, it may be
the only hope for us.

109
00:04:39.900 --> 00:04:41.100
Well, you know,

110
00:04:41.233 --> 00:04:43.633
maybe we could try taking the
show in a different direction?

111
00:04:43.767 --> 00:04:44.934
I have some ideas.

112
00:04:45.066 --> 00:04:48.467
Well, since the network hasn't
complained about storylines,

113
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:51.467
I think we should leave
that alone until they do.

114
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:52.934
That's another lesson,
by the way,

115
00:04:53.066 --> 00:04:54.467
you'll have to learn.

116
00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:55.800
Pick your battles.

117
00:04:55.934 --> 00:04:59.200
Well, you know, if we have to
resurrect Preston's character,

118
00:04:59.333 --> 00:05:01.333
we don't necessarily
have to use Darin, right?

119
00:05:01.467 --> 00:05:03.100
We could recast another actor.

120
00:05:03.233 --> 00:05:04.700
You know what?

121
00:05:04.834 --> 00:05:08.266
I just heard that Jeff Travis
isn't happy on

123
00:05:09.734 --> 00:05:11.800
I heard they weren't happy
with him

124
00:05:11.934 --> 00:05:13.867
and that he was a lot
of trouble.

125
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.667
Now look, I understand this is
awkward for you.

126
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:18.467
If we do get Darin back,

127
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:20.033
you're going to have
to figure out a way

128
00:05:20.166 --> 00:05:21.300
to work with him again.

129
00:05:21.433 --> 00:05:23.367
I just think it's not going
to be easy for either of us.

130
00:05:23.500 --> 00:05:25.300
I don't know what happened
with the two of you.

131
00:05:25.433 --> 00:05:27.533
I don't even know why
you broke up.

132
00:05:27.667 --> 00:05:29.133
But if this has something
to do with the show,

133
00:05:29.266 --> 00:05:30.367
you need to tell me.

134
00:05:30.500 --> 00:05:31.834
No, no, no, no, no.
It's not. It's not.

135

Oh, thank you.
Lovely. Thank you.

137
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.934
Look, Darin asked me what
I thought about his play,

138
00:05:41.066 --> 00:05:42.500
and I didn't want to hurt
his feelings,

139
00:05:42.633 --> 00:05:44.600
but then he talked to somebody
on the crew

140
00:05:44.734 --> 00:05:45.767
and he found out what I said

141
00:05:45.900 --> 00:05:48.967
and then he thought I wasn't
being honest with him

142
00:05:49.100 --> 00:05:49.967
and the whole thing

143
00:05:50.100 --> 00:05:52.166
just spiraled out of control
from there.

144
00:05:52.300 --> 00:05:54.300
We still have to try
and get him back.

145
00:05:54.433 --> 00:05:56.500
Actually, you do.

[laughs]

179
00:07:46.734 --> 00:07:50.300
And reprise your role as
Detective Preston Stillwater.

180
00:07:50.433 --> 00:07:51.567
You're serious.

181
00:07:51.700 --> 00:07:52.867
Yeah.

182
00:07:53.967 --> 00:07:55.066
Didn't you kill him off,

183
00:07:55.200 --> 00:07:56.767
or is there something else
you're not telling me again?

184
00:07:56.900 --> 00:07:58.000
Well, it doesn't
have to be Preston,

185
00:07:58.133 --> 00:07:59.266
if you don't want it to be.

186
00:07:59.400 --> 00:08:01.467
I could write you
a new character?

187
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:02.967
I don't know, I liked
playing Preston.

188
00:08:03.100 --> 00:08:04.033
But the answer's still no.

189
00:08:04.166 --> 00:08:05.467
The network is prepared
to give you a raise

190
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:06.834
and offer you a long-term
contract

191
00:08:06.967 --> 00:08:08.900
and give you a week off
every other month.

192
00:08:09.033 --> 00:08:10.533
A generous offer but I'll pass.

193
00:08:10.667 --> 00:08:11.867
And a new dressing room.

194
00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:14.567
Maggie, Maggie.
You're not listening.

195
00:08:14.700 --> 00:08:15.667
My answer's no.

196
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:16.834
Oh. No, I heard you.

197
00:08:16.967 --> 00:08:20.567
But, you know, there's a
cardinal rule in soap operas.

198
00:08:20.700 --> 00:08:22.233
Nothing is ever written
in stone.

199
00:08:22.367 --> 00:08:25.033
Well, consider this the one
exception to that rule.

200
00:08:25.166 --> 00:08:25.934
[sighs]

201
00:08:26.066 --> 00:08:28.200
I knew this wasn't going
to be easy.

202
00:08:28.333 --> 00:08:29.133
What do you mean,

203
00:08:29.266 --> 00:08:30.300
begging me to come back
to the show?

204
00:08:30.433 --> 00:08:31.700
I wouldn't exactly
call it begging,

205
00:08:31.834 --> 00:08:33.066
but, since your play
closed...

206
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:34.967
Since my play bombed?

207
00:08:35.100 --> 00:08:36.133
I didn't say that.

208
00:08:36.266 --> 00:08:37.300
Like you didn't say anything

209
00:08:37.433 --> 00:08:39.066
when I asked if I should do it
in the first place?

210
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:40.734
Look, Darin, you had your heart
set on going to Broadway,

211
00:08:40.867 --> 00:08:42.133
no matter what anyone said.

212
00:08:42.266 --> 00:08:43.867
Maggie, you're a writer,
you read the script.

213
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.200
You knew it was going to be
a disaster.

214
00:08:45.333 --> 00:08:47.133
Well, you wouldn't have listened
to me if I had said anything.

215
00:08:47.266 --> 00:08:48.567
Well you could have
said something.

216
00:08:48.700 --> 00:08:49.900
Ok, fine, well I'm saying
something now.

217
00:08:50.033 --> 00:08:52.000
Just come back to our show.

218
00:08:52.133 --> 00:08:53.400
I'm considering other options.

219
00:08:53.533 --> 00:08:55.033
What if we had brought lunch
in for you

220
00:08:55.166 --> 00:08:57.033
every single day from
that little French cafe

221
00:08:57.166 --> 00:08:57.834
that you love so much?

222
00:08:57.967 --> 00:08:59.333
The one you and I used
to go to?

223
00:08:59.467 --> 00:09:00.934
Yes, yes, Cafe Sur La Rue.

224
00:09:01.066 --> 00:09:03.633
I gotta be honest, I never liked
it as much as you did.

225
00:09:03.767 --> 00:09:05.133
[sighs]

226
00:09:05.266 --> 00:09:08.300
What if we... gave
you script approval?

227
00:09:12.500 --> 00:09:13.433
That would be a first.

228
00:09:13.567 --> 00:09:15.834
So, do we have a deal?

229
00:09:17.500 --> 00:09:19.934
No. But that was a nice try.

230
00:09:20.066 --> 00:09:21.433
[exhales]

231
00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:26.700
Hey, have a tomato.

232
00:09:26.834 --> 00:09:28.066
Had a good crop this year.

233
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:30.600
You know, you're a better actor
than you are a farmer, Darin.

234
00:09:39.533 --> 00:09:41.133
♪

235
00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:45.567
Oh, gosh, the whole thing
was so humiliating.

236
00:09:45.700 --> 00:09:47.400
Hey, you survived.

237
00:09:47.533 --> 00:09:49.233
Oh, I survived
but I still failed.

238
00:09:49.367 --> 00:09:51.400
Ok, so we didn't win this time.

239
00:09:51.533 --> 00:09:53.066
Yeah, and I suppose the way
the ratings are going,

240
00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:56.266
it wasn't the most attractive
offer for Darin.

241
00:09:56.400 --> 00:09:58.100
I was hoping maybe the show
would last,

242
00:09:58.233 --> 00:10:00.033
I don't know, forever?

243
00:10:00.166 --> 00:10:03.967
But certainly, 40 more years
for you, honey.

244
00:10:04.100 --> 00:10:06.233
I'm at the end of my career,
we know that.

245
00:10:06.367 --> 00:10:07.133
But you?

246
00:10:07.266 --> 00:10:10.033
Oh. You are just hitting
your stride.

247
00:10:10.166 --> 00:10:11.800
It's not about me, though.

248
00:10:11.934 --> 00:10:13.734
Just think about all the jobs
that will be lost

249
00:10:13.867 --> 00:10:17.200
and all the people
we won't see every day.

250
00:10:17.333 --> 00:10:18.800
I mean, you know,
we're practically family.

251
00:10:18.934 --> 00:10:22.700
It's... I just feel so guilty.

252
00:10:22.834 --> 00:10:25.433
You know the producers never
take no for an answer, right?

253
00:10:27.734 --> 00:10:29.934
-For the good of the show.
-Mmmhmm.

254
00:10:32.900 --> 00:10:35.233
Ok. So, now maybe
you can tell me

255
00:10:35.367 --> 00:10:36.266
why you haven't read
that script?

256
00:10:36.400 --> 00:10:41.567
I know it's a small part,
but it's a good one.

257
00:10:41.700 --> 00:10:42.867
I just need some more time.

258
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:43.633
To read?

259
00:10:43.767 --> 00:10:45.767
You need to get back to work.

260
00:10:45.900 --> 00:10:46.967
I am working.

261
00:10:47.100 --> 00:10:49.567
On what? Your vegetable garden?

262
00:10:49.700 --> 00:10:52.200
Well, not just that.

263
00:10:52.333 --> 00:10:54.934
Experimenting with a few
different varietals.

264
00:10:55.066 --> 00:10:56.967
Had my soil tested
with the ocean air.

265
00:10:57.100 --> 00:10:58.767
It's perfect for growing
Chardonnay grapes,

266
00:10:58.900 --> 00:11:00.633
which are a fruit,
by the way.

267
00:11:00.767 --> 00:11:02.467
Here I thought I was
representing an actor,

268
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:05.200
and low and behold,
you're a vintner.

269
00:11:06.333 --> 00:11:11.033
Look, Darin,
the play was bad.

270
00:11:11.166 --> 00:11:12.100
Not you.

271
00:11:12.233 --> 00:11:14.133
This was one small setback.

272
00:11:14.266 --> 00:11:15.233
It happens.

273
00:11:15.367 --> 00:11:17.767
But it's time to stop being
a gentleman farmer

274
00:11:17.900 --> 00:11:21.500
and get back to your real work,
which, in case you forgot,

275
00:11:21.633 --> 00:11:22.633
is acting.

276
00:11:24.133 --> 00:11:25.266
Maybe in a few months.

277
00:11:25.400 --> 00:11:27.100
Darin, you don't have months.

278
00:11:27.233 --> 00:11:29.166
You have to stay relevant.
You know that.

279
00:11:29.300 --> 00:11:31.867
You stay away too long,
people forget you.

280
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:33.967
They haven't forgot me yet.

281
00:11:34.100 --> 00:11:35.300
Maggie came by the other day,

282
00:11:35.433 --> 00:11:38.266
begging me to come back
to the show.

283
00:11:38.400 --> 00:11:40.133
It's the perfect solution.

284
00:11:40.266 --> 00:11:42.100
I don't wanna rush back into it,
cold turkey.

285
00:11:42.233 --> 00:11:43.834
Think about it, that show
is your comfort zone,

286
00:11:43.967 --> 00:11:45.333
you're a star there.

287
00:11:45.467 --> 00:11:48.266
Look, if you want my advice,
which you do,

288
00:11:48.400 --> 00:11:50.367
you give it a few weeks,
you see how it feels.

290
00:11:53.066 --> 00:11:54.700

00:11:54.834 --> 00:11:55.600
Been a while.

292
00:11:55.734 --> 00:11:57.467
That's exactly why
it makes sense.

Zac: Look, what I'm saying
to you

294

is that if you want
to continue acting,

295
00:11:59.800 --> 00:12:01.533
you're going to need
to do something.

296
00:12:01.667 --> 00:12:03.867
You do want to keep
acting, yes?

297
00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:04.767
Yeah, I do.

298
00:12:04.900 --> 00:12:05.800
Perfect.

299
00:12:05.934 --> 00:12:07.667
You start with this,
you see how you feel.

300
00:12:07.800 --> 00:12:08.767
Ok?

301
00:12:10.233 --> 00:12:11.233
Yeah.

Come on.

310
00:12:42.567 --> 00:12:44.667

Alice.

315

She gave you your
big break Darin.

316

Not to mention the fact
that she's devoted

317

40 years of her life
to the show.

318
00:13:02.367 --> 00:13:03.800
Yeah, well you really know
how to hit a guy.

319
00:13:03.934 --> 00:13:05.667
The next thing you'll say
is the ratings are dipping

320
00:13:05.800 --> 00:13:07.166
because of me.

321
00:13:07.300 --> 00:13:09.000
That would be giving you
too much credit.

322
00:13:09.133 --> 00:13:11.567

they've dipped a little bit.

323

A little?

324
00:13:12.967 --> 00:13:14.734
I heard they'd been dipping
ever since.

325
00:13:14.867 --> 00:13:15.700
Mag, I'm not blind,

326
00:13:15.834 --> 00:13:17.300
I see what the fans say
on social media.

327
00:13:17.433 --> 00:13:19.900
So, why not make
your fans happy?

328

Nothing I'd love more,

329
00:13:21.033 --> 00:13:22.066
I'm just not sure it would
make me happy.

You didn't seem unhappy
when you were on the show.

Ok.

332
00:13:28.266 --> 00:13:29.967

just for a second.

333
00:13:30.100 --> 00:13:32.633

Our beloved crew members.

335
00:13:34.533 --> 00:13:36.000
What's gonna happen to them,
Darin,

336
00:13:36.133 --> 00:13:37.500
if you don't come back
to the show

337
00:13:37.633 --> 00:13:41.333
and the network
pulls the plug, hmm?

338
00:13:41.467 --> 00:13:43.433
What about the actors?

339
00:13:43.567 --> 00:13:46.133
They'll be left to scatter
in the wind.

340
00:13:46.266 --> 00:13:47.433
That's a little dramatic,
don't you think?

341
00:13:47.567 --> 00:13:49.000
Not if it's working.

342
00:13:50.233 --> 00:13:51.266
Come on, Darin.

343
00:13:51.400 --> 00:13:52.800
What's it gonna take to get
you back on the show?

344
00:13:52.934 --> 00:13:53.834
I don't know if you remember

345
00:13:53.967 --> 00:13:56.400
when I left I said I was never
coming back.

346
00:13:56.533 --> 00:13:57.500
Yeah, I remember.

347
00:13:57.633 --> 00:14:02.133
And you called me a method actor
with no method.

348
00:14:02.266 --> 00:14:04.633
Darin, that's 'cause you broke
up with me, all right?

349
00:14:04.767 --> 00:14:06.166
My feelings were hurt.

350
00:14:06.300 --> 00:14:08.500
You're a great actor.

351
00:14:08.633 --> 00:14:11.166
That's why I want you back
on the show.

352
00:14:11.300 --> 00:14:12.734
Did Zac put you up
to this?

353
00:14:12.867 --> 00:14:15.633
No, but I'm gonna call him next
if this doesn't work.

354
00:14:15.767 --> 00:14:17.033
[scoffs]

355
00:14:17.166 --> 00:14:19.033
Did I mention that everything
I offered

356
00:14:19.166 --> 00:14:20.967
is still on the table?

357
00:14:21.100 --> 00:14:22.834
Everything?

358
00:14:22.967 --> 00:14:24.867
Yes. Mm-hm.

359
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:26.900
We're gonna give you
script approval.

360
00:14:28.800 --> 00:14:32.200
Well, it is a tempting offer.

361
00:14:34.800 --> 00:14:38.500
Oh, come on Darin!
Don't torment me like this.

362
00:14:38.633 --> 00:14:40.600
I don't have to but I'm kind of
enjoying it.

363
00:14:42.633 --> 00:14:45.834
All right, look. I don't want
a long-term contract.

364
00:14:45.967 --> 00:14:47.467
Ok, fine. I can work
with that.

365
00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:49.233
Uh, we could do two years.

366
00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:52.700
One year.

367
00:14:56.433 --> 00:14:57.333
Four weeks.

368
00:14:57.467 --> 00:15:00.100
[laughs]
What?

369
00:15:00.233 --> 00:15:01.800
Ok, Darin, four weeks
isn't even enough time

370
00:15:01.934 --> 00:15:03.633
for me to bring you back
from the dead.

371
00:15:03.767 --> 00:15:06.633
Well, you're a writer, right?
Figure it out.

372
00:15:13.266 --> 00:15:15.633
So he'll only do four weeks.
Thank you.

373
00:15:15.767 --> 00:15:16.567
Mmmhmm.

374
00:15:16.700 --> 00:15:18.700
That's not enough time
to save the show.

375
00:15:18.834 --> 00:15:21.867
Well, at least it gives me some
time to convince him to stay.

376
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.266
Oh, honey, if you can
pull that off,

377
00:15:24.400 --> 00:15:26.734
you are well on your way
to being a producer.

378
00:15:26.867 --> 00:15:28.033
That's still a pretty big "if."

379
00:15:28.166 --> 00:15:29.100
No, no.

380
00:15:29.233 --> 00:15:30.567
No, Maggie, you have
written yourself out of

381
00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:32.867
much tougher situations.

382
00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:36.233
Daytime drama is easy.
It's real life that's hard.

383
00:15:36.367 --> 00:15:37.967
Oh, yeah.

384
00:15:38.100 --> 00:15:40.467
Ok, let me see what you've
put together and if it works,

385
00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:42.600
let's print the first
100 copies.

386
00:15:47.567 --> 00:15:49.900
♪

387
00:16:01.467 --> 00:16:04.033
Well, got a much nicer
parking spot.

388
00:16:04.166 --> 00:16:05.333
It's right in front
of my dressing room,

389
00:16:05.467 --> 00:16:06.367
so that's a good sign.

390
00:16:06.500 --> 00:16:07.567
Zac: A very good sign,

391
00:16:07.700 --> 00:16:08.800
because I didn't even have
to negotiate that.

392
00:16:08.934 --> 00:16:10.333
How're you feeling?

393
00:16:10.467 --> 00:16:11.633
A little nervous.

394
00:16:11.767 --> 00:16:13.767
Zac: A little nervous is good,
it just shows that you care.

395
00:16:13.900 --> 00:16:16.033
Anything I can do to help,
you name it.

396
00:16:16.166 --> 00:16:17.467
Thanks Zac, I think
I've got it covered.

397
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:18.567
Zac: Yeah you do.

398
00:16:18.700 --> 00:16:20.033
Just remember,
you're a rock star there.

399
00:16:20.166 --> 00:16:21.567
I'll let you know how it goes.

400
00:16:23.800 --> 00:16:26.166
Welcome back, Mr. Mitchell!

401
00:16:26.300 --> 00:16:28.834
Alice sent me to come get you
to set and bring you right away.

402
00:16:28.967 --> 00:16:29.967
Thanks.

403
00:16:32.500 --> 00:16:33.266
Alrighty.

404
00:16:36.633 --> 00:16:38.266
-How was your drive in?
-It was good.

405
00:16:38.400 --> 00:16:40.333
-Oh good.
-How are you?

406
00:16:40.467 --> 00:16:41.734
Oh, so good.

407
00:16:43.800 --> 00:16:45.100
And we are here.

408
00:16:45.233 --> 00:16:47.033
-All right, thank you.
-You're welcome.

409
00:16:48.467 --> 00:16:52.867
[cheering and applause]

410
00:17:02.500 --> 00:17:03.567
Welcome back, Darin.

411
00:17:03.700 --> 00:17:06.433
Thank you. I had no idea.

412
00:17:06.567 --> 00:17:09.066
Darin, maybe this is a little
bit more than what you expected,

413
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:11.033
but we just wanted to let
you know how happy we are

414
00:17:11.166 --> 00:17:13.900
to have you back as part
of the family.

415
00:17:14.033 --> 00:17:15.266
Thanks, Gregory.

416
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:17.000
[applause]

417
00:17:17.133 --> 00:17:18.233
Thank you, Gregory.
Thank you everybody,

418
00:17:18.367 --> 00:17:19.433
I'm very happy to be back.

419
00:17:19.567 --> 00:17:21.500
I'm very excited to get to work
with you all again,

420
00:17:21.633 --> 00:17:22.934
so thank you very much.

421
00:17:23.066 --> 00:17:23.433
[cheering and applause]

422
00:17:23.567 --> 00:17:24.800
Come here you.

423
00:17:25.533 --> 00:17:27.066
Welcome back!

424
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:28.367
Welcome back, man.

425
00:17:29.233 --> 00:17:30.767
Good job.

426
00:17:30.900 --> 00:17:32.233
Although, I don't love
some of the concessions

427
00:17:32.367 --> 00:17:33.734
that we had to make.

428
00:17:33.867 --> 00:17:35.433
I hear he's back thanks to you.

429
00:17:35.567 --> 00:17:36.533
Oh.

430
00:17:36.667 --> 00:17:37.734
And Alice has assured me

431
00:17:37.867 --> 00:17:39.900
that you're going to get him
to extend his contract.

432
00:17:40.033 --> 00:17:41.066
That's the plan.

433
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:43.834
Well I hope your plan works
because, if it doesn't...

434
00:17:43.967 --> 00:17:45.266
We'll all be looking for jobs.

435
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:47.867
And if by some chance
you are successful,

436
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.467
I won't forget
your name again.

437
00:17:53.066 --> 00:17:54.700
Well, I meant to call you guys
when I got back.

438
00:17:54.834 --> 00:17:55.867
How you been?

439
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:58.867
Well, you know, a year older
but we're still here.

440
00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:01.633
And like the Gerards,
we're still together.

441
00:18:01.767 --> 00:18:03.567
Although my character's
in the hospital.

442
00:18:03.700 --> 00:18:04.834
What happened?

443
00:18:04.967 --> 00:18:07.333
Remember Ted's sister, who
turned out not to be his sister?

444
00:18:07.467 --> 00:18:08.667
Yeah, yeah, yeah,

445
00:18:08.800 --> 00:18:10.300
the one who said she got
switched at birth.

446
00:18:10.433 --> 00:18:12.834
Well she was thrown out of
the family and disinherited,

447
00:18:12.967 --> 00:18:15.800
so she sent her son to kill Ted.

448
00:18:15.934 --> 00:18:19.667
Only it backfired and now
they're both sittin' in prison.

449
00:18:19.800 --> 00:18:20.767
I got a lot to catch up on.

450
00:18:20.900 --> 00:18:23.734
You didn't watch us at all
while you were gone?

451
00:18:23.867 --> 00:18:26.834
At first I needed to focus
on the play,

452
00:18:26.967 --> 00:18:28.500
but I did want to see
my memorial service

453
00:18:28.633 --> 00:18:29.667
so I did catch
a few episodes.

454
00:18:29.800 --> 00:18:31.900
You know, of all the years
I've been on this show,

455
00:18:32.033 --> 00:18:34.734
your character had
the nicest send off.

456
00:18:34.867 --> 00:18:35.767
That's right.

457
00:18:35.900 --> 00:18:39.600
All right, everybody,
back to work please.

458
00:18:39.734 --> 00:18:41.066
Thank you.

459
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:43.800
All right, and you have
a photoshoot in an hour

460
00:18:43.934 --> 00:18:45.734
and they're waiting for you
in makeup.

461
00:18:45.867 --> 00:18:46.767
All right.

462
00:18:46.900 --> 00:18:47.700
Ok.

463
00:18:48.700 --> 00:18:53.133
For the rest of us,
we have 180 pages today.

464
00:18:53.266 --> 00:18:54.266
[groans]

465
00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:56.333
Oh, Darin.

466
00:18:56.467 --> 00:18:58.400
Walter and I are celebrating
our 40th wedding anniversary

467
00:18:58.533 --> 00:19:01.333
and Maggie and Alice
are throwing us a party.

468
00:19:01.467 --> 00:19:02.834
And we'd love for you
to be there.

469
00:19:02.967 --> 00:19:04.467
I wouldn't miss it
for the world.

470
00:19:04.600 --> 00:19:05.300
Great.

471
00:19:05.433 --> 00:19:06.066
I'll see you in there.

472
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:07.734
-Muah!
-Bye-bye.

473
00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:14.133
Lucinda: I need a wardrobe
change, yep.

474
00:19:23.367 --> 00:19:25.600
Hey John! Hey Teri!
Ready for me?

475
00:19:25.734 --> 00:19:27.300
Always ready for ya, Darin.

476
00:19:27.433 --> 00:19:28.333
Have a seat.

477
00:19:28.467 --> 00:19:29.767
Thanks.

478
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:33.266
When I heard you'd be back
last week,

479
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:35.133
I couldn't believe it.

480
00:19:35.266 --> 00:19:36.600
Last week?

481
00:19:36.734 --> 00:19:37.800
How'd you find out so fast?

482
00:19:37.934 --> 00:19:39.467
News travels fast
in these chairs.

483
00:19:39.600 --> 00:19:41.400
Darin! Have you met Trudy?

484
00:19:41.533 --> 00:19:43.133
No, hi, nice to meet you.

485
00:19:43.266 --> 00:19:45.100
Trudy plays Lexi.

486
00:19:45.233 --> 00:19:46.500
The Gerard's granddaughter?

487
00:19:46.633 --> 00:19:47.734
Uh huh.

488
00:19:47.867 --> 00:19:50.467
You were like three years old
when I left a year ago.

489
00:19:50.600 --> 00:19:53.800
And you died in a
drowning accident.

490
00:19:53.934 --> 00:19:54.900
Fair point.

491
00:19:55.033 --> 00:19:56.934
-You're all done.
-Thank you.

492
00:19:59.800 --> 00:20:01.500
They grow up fast around here,
don't they?

493
00:20:01.633 --> 00:20:02.767
They sure do.

494
00:20:02.900 --> 00:20:04.467
Oh yeah.

495
00:20:11.033 --> 00:20:12.500
[knock at door]

496
00:20:12.633 --> 00:20:13.967
-Hey.
-Hey.

497
00:20:14.100 --> 00:20:15.633
Ready to start going over
some ideas?

498
00:20:15.767 --> 00:20:17.600
Yup, sure. Come on in.

499
00:20:20.533 --> 00:20:23.066
Been a while since
I've been in here.

500
00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:24.433
Looks the same.

501
00:20:24.567 --> 00:20:27.467
Yeah, maybe a little messier.

502
00:20:27.600 --> 00:20:32.934
So, what do you think about me
coming back as Peter?

503
00:20:33.066 --> 00:20:34.300
Preston's long lost brother.

504
00:20:34.433 --> 00:20:35.767
It's a good idea, but we've
already done it,

505
00:20:35.900 --> 00:20:40.233
in season 14, 21, 34 and 39.
What else do you have?

506
00:20:40.367 --> 00:20:42.000
[laughs]
Ok.

507
00:20:42.133 --> 00:20:45.166
I'm the new guy in town
and I look a lot like Preston,

508
00:20:45.300 --> 00:20:46.367
sound like him...

509
00:20:46.500 --> 00:20:48.767
Ok, but what's his back story,
what's his character arc

510
00:20:48.900 --> 00:20:51.000
and what's his goal for only
being there four weeks?

511
00:20:51.133 --> 00:20:53.467
Ok, I get it, this is not going
to be easy.

512
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:55.066
[knocking]

513
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:56.166
Sorry to interrupt,

514
00:20:56.300 --> 00:20:58.166
just wanted to drop off
your ticket for tonight.

515
00:20:59.734 --> 00:21:00.500
Darin.

516
00:21:00.633 --> 00:21:01.667
-Hey.
-Hi.

517
00:21:01.800 --> 00:21:03.500
I'm opening a new play.

518
00:21:04.967 --> 00:21:07.500
It's not the lead or anything
and it's just a small theatre,

519
00:21:07.633 --> 00:21:09.467
but, uh, if you'd like to come

520
00:21:09.600 --> 00:21:12.033
I should be able
to get you a ticket.

521
00:21:12.166 --> 00:21:14.567
Yeah, man, that's great.
I'm really happy for you.

522
00:21:14.700 --> 00:21:15.934
Ok.

523
00:21:20.433 --> 00:21:22.200
I hope that wasn't too awkward
for you.

524
00:21:22.333 --> 00:21:24.500
What, 'cause he was asking me
about theatre?

525
00:21:24.633 --> 00:21:26.233
No. It's not awkward.

526
00:21:27.533 --> 00:21:29.066
Well he didn't mean anything.

527
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.066
No, no. The last thing
I want people to do

528
00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:35.166

around me.

Especially you.

530
00:21:37.500 --> 00:21:38.500
I won't.

531
00:21:41.633 --> 00:21:46.133
So, how do you think we managed
to mess it up?

532
00:21:46.266 --> 00:21:47.700
I think we started taking us
for granted

533
00:21:47.834 --> 00:21:51.800
until there wasn't much
of us left.

534
00:21:51.934 --> 00:21:54.467
Too busy focusing on
our careers, I guess.

535
00:21:54.600 --> 00:21:56.533
At least you're making some
progress towards your dream

536
00:21:56.667 --> 00:21:57.667
of becoming a producer.

537
00:21:57.800 --> 00:22:02.934

to Preston's resurrection.

Yes. Um.

Except I can only take cases
at night.

You really wanna wear
a cape and fangs?

542
00:22:11.900 --> 00:22:15.300
Well, maybe I could be
a cool modern vampire.

00:22:16.567 --> 00:22:21.433
Not sure Alice would go for it,
but I'll write it down.

Sure, what's up?

548
00:22:29.900 --> 00:22:32.533
I am organizing a weekly hike
on Saturday mornings.

549
00:22:32.667 --> 00:22:33.567
You interested?

550
00:22:33.700 --> 00:22:35.100
Uh, I don't know.

551
00:22:35.233 --> 00:22:37.066
I haven't been hiking
in a while.

552
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:38.934
Actually, I haven't done much
of anything

553
00:22:39.066 --> 00:22:41.066
except for sitting and writing
for a while.

554
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:42.934
Then you should definitely
do this.

with Darin today?

Oh, he shot down
most of my ideas.

Listen, don't let him talk you

as a vampire.

Yeah, he brought it up
two years ago.

And believe me,

574
00:23:21.533 --> 00:23:24.033
Preston was very much
alive then.

landed the gig,

00:36:56.066 --> 00:36:57.033
Thank you.

883
00:36:58.567 --> 00:36:59.834
Almost too pretty to drink.

884
00:36:59.967 --> 00:37:01.166
But very romantic.

885
00:37:01.300 --> 00:37:03.200
Well, 40 years of marriage
is a milestone.

886
00:37:03.333 --> 00:37:04.400
I don't know how
people do it.

887
00:37:04.533 --> 00:37:05.433
You don't believe
in true love?

888
00:37:05.567 --> 00:37:08.800
You know, I used to,
but after two divorces...

889
00:37:08.934 --> 00:37:10.333
Well, maybe you just haven't met
the right person.

890
00:37:10.467 --> 00:37:13.567
Or maybe I'm just not as lucky
as you two.

891
00:37:13.700 --> 00:37:14.700
Enjoy.

892
00:37:19.767 --> 00:37:23.133
Well, we were a couple
for three years.

893
00:37:23.266 --> 00:37:25.133
Mmm.

894
00:37:25.266 --> 00:37:26.734
Wow, this is...

895
00:37:26.867 --> 00:37:27.633
Incredible, right?

896
00:37:27.767 --> 00:37:28.633
Yes.

897
00:37:28.767 --> 00:37:30.000
We should definitely serve this.

898
00:37:30.133 --> 00:37:31.500
You know, and rubies,
after all,

899
00:37:31.633 --> 00:37:36.000
they do mean passion
and devotion and romance.

900
00:37:36.133 --> 00:37:37.700
How do you know
all this stuff?

901
00:37:37.834 --> 00:37:39.133
I write for soaps.

902
00:37:39.266 --> 00:37:41.467
One I'm trying to get you
to stay on, by the way.

903
00:37:41.600 --> 00:37:43.367
[chuckles]
I said I'd do four weeks.

904
00:37:43.500 --> 00:37:44.700
Why only four weeks?

905
00:37:44.834 --> 00:37:46.834
Come on, is there something else
you want to do?

906
00:37:49.133 --> 00:37:50.834
Right now I don't know
what I want to do.

907
00:37:51.767 --> 00:37:53.200
Look, I get it.

908
00:37:53.333 --> 00:37:55.133
I know doing theatre
was your dream.

909
00:37:55.266 --> 00:37:56.400
Yeah.

910
00:37:56.533 --> 00:37:59.000
And I don't want that dream
to be one play that flopped.

911
00:37:59.133 --> 00:38:00.233
It won't be.

912
00:38:00.367 --> 00:38:02.600
And Darin, you're
a great actor.

913
00:38:02.734 --> 00:38:05.600
You just haven't found
the right play.

914
00:38:05.734 --> 00:38:07.767
Like our friend who hasn't found
the right girl.

915
00:38:07.900 --> 00:38:10.233
You seem to have that covered.

916
00:38:10.367 --> 00:38:11.934
And? What do you think?

917
00:38:12.066 --> 00:38:13.567
Oh, we love it.

918
00:38:13.700 --> 00:38:15.800
Yeah, definitely going with
the ruby cocktail.

919
00:38:15.934 --> 00:38:18.033
Oh, we should come up with some
sort of signature name for it,

920
00:38:18.166 --> 00:38:19.633
in honor of Walter and Lucinda.

921
00:38:19.767 --> 00:38:21.233
Well, how did they meet?

922
00:38:21.367 --> 00:38:22.467
Oh.

923
00:38:22.600 --> 00:38:23.934
-On a soap opera.
-Yeah.

924
00:38:24.066 --> 00:38:26.400
Oh, we could call it
the Forever Cocktail?

925
00:38:26.533 --> 00:38:27.300
I thought I recognized you.

926
00:38:27.433 --> 00:38:29.767
You were on that show,
weren't you?

927
00:38:29.900 --> 00:38:32.300
My ex-wife watched that show
every day.

928
00:38:32.433 --> 00:38:33.533
She was nuts about it.

929
00:38:33.667 --> 00:38:35.467
And you!

930
00:38:35.600 --> 00:38:36.934
I gotta go text her.

931
00:38:37.066 --> 00:38:39.266
[giggling]

932
00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:43.133
-Wow, cheers to that.
-Cheers to that.

933
00:38:46.233 --> 00:38:48.800
I can't believe he didn't
recognize you at first.

934
00:38:48.934 --> 00:38:50.900
I just hope he doesn't blame
Preston for his divorce.

935
00:38:51.033 --> 00:38:52.734
[laughs]

936
00:38:52.867 --> 00:38:53.867
Hey, thanks for coming
with me.

937
00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:55.066
Yeah. Yeah.

938
00:38:55.200 --> 00:38:56.533
I never get out of the office
in the middle of the day,

939
00:38:56.667 --> 00:38:57.700
it was fun.

940
00:38:57.834 --> 00:39:00.433
Well then I'm happy that I could
help you play hooky.

941
00:39:00.567 --> 00:39:02.633
You're supposed to be
at a fitting, aren't you?

942
00:39:02.767 --> 00:39:03.533
You are right.

943
00:39:03.667 --> 00:39:05.133
I will see you later, ok?

944
00:39:05.266 --> 00:39:06.533
Ok.

945
00:39:16.266 --> 00:39:18.667
And that, that's how
I got Gregory to sign off

946
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:20.834
on that season's finale.

947
00:39:20.967 --> 00:39:22.633
I can't believe that
he bought that.

948
00:39:22.767 --> 00:39:24.100
It's sort of an industry secret.

949
00:39:24.233 --> 00:39:27.433
Oh? Well, I guess I owe
you another glass of wine
for sharing it.

950
00:39:27.567 --> 00:39:30.033
Actually, I could use a little
favor instead.

951
00:39:30.166 --> 00:39:32.266
Yeah, of course,
what is it?

952
00:39:32.400 --> 00:39:35.533
Take my place at the soap opera
convention this weekend?

953
00:39:35.667 --> 00:39:37.200
You're not going?

954
00:39:37.333 --> 00:39:39.633
My daughter needs me
to watch the kids.

955
00:39:39.767 --> 00:39:41.767
I so know this
is last minute.

956
00:39:41.900 --> 00:39:43.367
I'm just at my wit's end.

957
00:39:43.500 --> 00:39:44.467
Of course I'll do it.

958
00:39:44.600 --> 00:39:45.767
[sighs]

959
00:39:45.900 --> 00:39:47.800
You are such a star.

960
00:39:47.934 --> 00:39:48.367
Thank you.

961
00:39:48.500 --> 00:39:49.200
And you know what?

962
00:39:49.333 --> 00:39:50.767
This is gonna be a breeze
for you.

963
00:39:50.900 --> 00:39:52.433
You know as much
about the show as I do,

964
00:39:52.567 --> 00:39:56.367
and you only have to attend
one panel.

965
00:39:56.500 --> 00:39:57.934
Panel?

966
00:39:58.066 --> 00:39:59.266
Like in front of people?

967
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:00.400
It's a Q and A.

968
00:40:00.533 --> 00:40:02.600
I mean the whole cast will be
on stage with you.

969
00:40:02.734 --> 00:40:03.567
Well, but they're used to it.

970
00:40:03.700 --> 00:40:06.600
No, no, you have to get
used to this.

971
00:40:06.734 --> 00:40:09.667
Besides, it's a beautiful
resort.

972
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:12.300
And I know you're gonna have
a wonderful time.

973
00:40:12.433 --> 00:40:14.033
Must be the fun part
of producing.

974
00:40:14.166 --> 00:40:16.300
Yeah, and there are really
so few of those,

975
00:40:16.433 --> 00:40:18.233
so enjoy yourself.

976
00:40:23.567 --> 00:40:24.834
So?

977
00:40:24.967 --> 00:40:26.567
How are things going
on the show?

978
00:40:27.667 --> 00:40:29.333
Better.

979
00:40:29.467 --> 00:40:31.367
A couple of rough patches
last week.

980
00:40:31.500 --> 00:40:32.600
Only dropped my lines once
this week,

981
00:40:32.734 --> 00:40:34.867
so that's an improvement.

982
00:40:35.000 --> 00:40:37.100
But, everybody's been
really understanding,

983
00:40:37.233 --> 00:40:39.300
especially Maggie.

984
00:40:39.433 --> 00:40:40.500
Well, I wasn't gonna
bring her up,

985
00:40:40.633 --> 00:40:42.200
but since you did.

986
00:40:42.333 --> 00:40:44.700
How's it been,
working with her again?

987
00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:48.433
Just like old times.

988
00:40:48.567 --> 00:40:51.133
Not exactly over her,
are ya?

989
00:40:52.967 --> 00:40:54.433
Thought I was.

990
00:40:54.567 --> 00:40:56.333
What about Maggie?

991
00:40:56.467 --> 00:40:57.667
I don't know.

992
00:40:57.800 --> 00:40:59.433
I can't tell what she's feeling.

993
00:40:59.567 --> 00:41:01.400
Well, here's some more
unsolicited advice

994
00:41:01.533 --> 00:41:03.367
from your agent.

995
00:41:03.500 --> 00:41:07.734
Maybe for now it's best to just
focus on your career.

996
00:41:09.533 --> 00:41:12.567
Speaking of which, I don't know
if it's still too soon,

997
00:41:12.700 --> 00:41:15.066
but I might have found
a new play for you,

998
00:41:15.200 --> 00:41:17.033
if you're interested.

999
00:41:29.533 --> 00:41:30.567
Welcome everyone.

1000
00:41:30.700 --> 00:41:33.600
I am Ken, I will be your
coordinator for the weekend.

1001
00:41:33.734 --> 00:41:35.934
You'll find everything you need
in your packets,

1002
00:41:36.066 --> 00:41:37.934
your schedule of events,
your room assignments

1003
00:41:38.066 --> 00:41:42.066
and this year we have included
a complimentary spa treatment.

1004
00:41:42.200 --> 00:41:42.967
All: Oh!

1005
00:41:43.100 --> 00:41:44.433
And that sounds
right up my alley.

1006
00:41:44.567 --> 00:41:45.333
[laughing]

1007
00:41:45.467 --> 00:41:46.967
And if you need anything
else at all,

1008
00:41:47.100 --> 00:41:49.467
my card is also in the packet.

1009
00:41:49.600 --> 00:41:52.133
Thank you, Ken.
It's lovely to be back.

1010
00:41:52.266 --> 00:41:54.066
Oh, it's an honor
to have you back.

1011
00:41:54.200 --> 00:41:55.967
Your first panel is at 2:00
this afternoon,

1012
00:41:56.100 --> 00:41:57.133
so I'll see you then.

1013
00:41:57.266 --> 00:41:58.266
Okay.

1014
00:41:59.533 --> 00:42:01.500
Anybody up for lunch
in about an hour?

1015
00:42:01.633 --> 00:42:02.834
Sure.

1016
00:42:02.967 --> 00:42:04.033
I'm starving.

1017
00:42:04.166 --> 00:42:08.000
I'm just gonna head up to
the hotel cafe and grab a bite

1018
00:42:08.133 --> 00:42:09.367
because I gotta prep
for the panel,

1019
00:42:09.500 --> 00:42:11.233
but I'll see you all
at 2:00?

1020
00:42:11.367 --> 00:42:12.967
-Yeah. See you at 2:00.
-Okay.

1021
00:42:13.100 --> 00:42:14.100
Okay.

1022
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:17.200
Well, how 'bout sushi?

1023
00:42:17.333 --> 00:42:19.533
-Sounds good.
-Yeah, I'm in.

1024
00:42:19.667 --> 00:42:20.667
Darin: I'll meet you
in the lobby.

1025
00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:21.533
Gwen: Sure.

1026
00:42:21.667 --> 00:42:25.700
♪

1027
00:42:43.600 --> 00:42:44.333
Hey, Maggie.

1028
00:42:44.467 --> 00:42:45.533
Hey, hi.

1029
00:42:45.667 --> 00:42:47.500
I didn't realize
we were neighbors.

1030
00:42:47.633 --> 00:42:50.200
Yeah. Walter and Lucinda
are just on the other side.

1031
00:42:50.333 --> 00:42:51.367
Oh.

1032
00:42:51.500 --> 00:42:52.867
Are you sure you don't want
to join us for lunch?

1033
00:42:53.000 --> 00:42:55.033
Yeah. I picked something
up already.

1034
00:42:55.166 --> 00:42:56.867
I'm gonna go prep
for the panel.

1035
00:42:57.000 --> 00:42:58.000
I've never been on one before.

1036
00:42:58.133 --> 00:43:00.266
Yeah, I know you're used to
being behind the scenes,

1037
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.200
but panels are pretty simple.

1038
00:43:02.333 --> 00:43:04.133
Just not comfortable in front of
an audience.

1039
00:43:04.266 --> 00:43:05.200
Oh, you'll be fine.

1040
00:43:05.333 --> 00:43:06.934
If you get a question
that you're unsure of,

1041
00:43:07.066 --> 00:43:09.200
you just take a breath
and say something like

1042
00:43:09.333 --> 00:43:10.767
"that's a really good question,"

1043
00:43:10.900 --> 00:43:12.400
Buy you a minute to think of
what to say.

1044
00:43:12.533 --> 00:43:14.033
Thanks.

1045
00:43:14.166 --> 00:43:18.834
Oh, and if that doesn't work,
try one of these.

1046
00:43:19.867 --> 00:43:20.700
An elastic band?

1047
00:43:20.834 --> 00:43:22.433
Yeah, it's a trick for nerves.

1048
00:43:22.567 --> 00:43:26.567
You just put it on and it
reminds you to be present.

1049
00:43:26.700 --> 00:43:30.066
Thanks Darin, for looking
out for me.

1050
00:43:30.200 --> 00:43:31.433
Yeah.

1051
00:43:32.100 --> 00:43:33.533
[phone ringing]

1052
00:43:33.667 --> 00:43:34.633
Sorry.

1053
00:43:37.033 --> 00:43:38.734
Sorry, gotta take this.
It's Zac.

1054
00:43:38.867 --> 00:43:40.133
Oh.

1055
00:43:40.266 --> 00:43:41.600
Hey.

1056
00:43:41.734 --> 00:43:44.233
Darin: Thanks for calling
me back.

1057
00:43:44.367 --> 00:43:45.967
Fran: I got your message.

1058
00:43:46.100 --> 00:43:49.433
Darin: Can I, can I see you
when I get back in town?

1059

Oh, my gosh!

[laughs]

1063
00:44:13.133 --> 00:44:17.100
And of course, a huge thank you
to CHB network,

1064
00:44:17.233 --> 00:44:19.633
the host of our favorite
soap opera,

1065
00:44:19.767 --> 00:44:22.266
for sponsoring today's panel.

1066

[applause]

1067
00:44:29.467 --> 00:44:31.333
Maggie, now I know
that this is

1068
00:44:31.467 --> 00:44:34.133
your first time
at Soap Opera Expo

1069
00:44:34.266 --> 00:44:39.166
and you have been with Forever
for, well, a long, long time.

1070
00:44:39.300 --> 00:44:41.433
[laughter]

1071
00:44:41.567 --> 00:44:44.834
Tell us how you got started.

1072
00:44:44.967 --> 00:44:47.133
Um, well, that's
a great question.

1073
00:44:47.266 --> 00:44:49.367
[nervous laugh]

1074
00:44:49.500 --> 00:44:54.967
Um, well, like all of you,

1075
00:44:55.100 --> 00:44:58.200
I am a huge fan of soap operas.

1076
00:44:58.333 --> 00:45:00.700
When I was little, my
grandmother lived with us

1077
00:45:00.834 --> 00:45:05.734
and she, and my mother and I
would watch soaps every day

1078
00:45:05.867 --> 00:45:09.500
and they were our salvation
through a lot of rough patches.

1079
00:45:09.633 --> 00:45:10.433
Yeah.

1080
00:45:10.567 --> 00:45:12.233
And, I always wanted
to be a writer,

1081
00:45:12.367 --> 00:45:16.367
so I thought, what better job
than writing on a soap opera?

1082
00:45:16.500 --> 00:45:18.033
And now you're
the head writer.

1083
00:45:18.166 --> 00:45:18.900
Yes.

1084
00:45:19.033 --> 00:45:20.834
Which leads me to
my next question.

1085
00:45:20.967 --> 00:45:24.400
How are you writing Preston
Stillwater back onto the show?

1086
00:45:24.533 --> 00:45:25.567
[laughs]

1087
00:45:25.700 --> 00:45:27.867
Sorry, we're gonna have
to keep that one a secret.

1088
00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:30.667
But we've shot a lot of scenes
with Darin already

1089
00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:32.066
and you're just going
to have to tune in

1090
00:45:32.200 --> 00:45:34.266
when his first episode airs
this Monday.

1091
00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:35.767
We'll be tuning in, won't we?

1092
00:45:35.900 --> 00:45:39.000
[applause]

1093
00:45:39.133 --> 00:45:39.867
Ok.

1094
00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:41.433
Who wants to ask
the first question?

1095
00:45:41.567 --> 00:45:42.900
Audience: Oh, oh, oh, oh.

1096
00:45:43.033 --> 00:45:44.467
Right there, yes?

1097
00:45:45.834 --> 00:45:48.500
Hi, my question is for Darin.

1098
00:45:48.633 --> 00:45:50.867
I love you so much as Preston

1099
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:54.033
and for a cop, he's such
a romantic guy,

1100
00:45:54.166 --> 00:45:58.066
but, what is Darin's
ideal first date?

1101
00:45:58.200 --> 00:46:00.066
Well, that's easy.

1102
00:46:00.200 --> 00:46:03.100
It would be a ride to the top
of my favorite canyon in LA.

1103
00:46:03.233 --> 00:46:05.066
Picnic dinner and a bottle
of wine.

1104
00:46:05.200 --> 00:46:07.266
And we'd watch the sunset.

1105
00:46:09.533 --> 00:46:11.834
Yeah, yeah, right here.

1106
00:46:11.967 --> 00:46:13.667
My question is also for Darin.

1107
00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:16.066
You were such a huge star
on Forever,

1108
00:46:16.200 --> 00:46:21.500
before you left for Broadway,
but then your play bombed.

1109
00:46:21.633 --> 00:46:24.467
Was it hard for you to come
back to the show after that?

1110
00:46:26.300 --> 00:46:30.100
That's a really good question.

1111
00:46:30.233 --> 00:46:31.967
You know, it was actually
hard for us,

1112
00:46:32.100 --> 00:46:35.934
because Darin had so many offers
and everybody wanted him,

1113
00:46:36.066 --> 00:46:40.100
so we're just so lucky that
we got him back on our show.

1114
00:46:40.233 --> 00:46:42.333
Forever gave me my start

1115
00:46:42.467 --> 00:46:44.967
and I really love the show
and I really love the people.

1116

1118
00:46:56.367 --> 00:47:00.233
Hey, who's that Darin is
talking to over there?

1119
00:47:00.367 --> 00:47:01.700
That's Joey Buchanan.

1120
00:47:01.834 --> 00:47:04.166
He's the producer on
Tomorrow Always Comes.

1121
00:47:04.300 --> 00:47:06.567
He's been trying to get us
to jump ship for years, but..

[laughs]

1123
00:47:08.300 --> 00:47:10.367
We're very happy
where we are.

1124
00:47:10.500 --> 00:47:12.633
Besides, it would have meant
driving an extra half hour

1125
00:47:12.767 --> 00:47:14.166
just to get to work
every morning, so...

1126
00:47:14.300 --> 00:47:15.166
[laughs]

1127
00:47:15.300 --> 00:47:16.533
And we are... no way.

1129
00:47:17.667 --> 00:47:18.667
What's so funny?

1130
00:47:18.800 --> 00:47:20.300
Oh, just LA traffic.

1131
00:47:20.433 --> 00:47:23.500
At least we're out of it
for the weekend, right?

1132
00:47:23.633 --> 00:47:25.734
Mag, can I talk to you
for a minute?

1133
00:47:25.867 --> 00:47:26.867
Sure.

1134
00:47:27.367 --> 00:47:28.367
Excuse us.

1135
00:47:29.367 --> 00:47:30.700
Thanks for letting me borrow
the earrings.

1136
00:47:30.834 --> 00:47:32.200
Oh, you're welcome.

1137
00:47:33.000 --> 00:47:34.734
Well, that's promising.

-Oh, Ken
-Hi, Ken.

1140

Did you get a chance
to go to the spa?

1141
00:47:39.467 --> 00:47:41.233
I did, it was great.

1142
00:47:41.367 --> 00:47:44.000
I just wanted to thank you
for that save earlier.

1143
00:47:44.133 --> 00:47:45.066
Yeah, yeah.

1144
00:47:45.200 --> 00:47:47.734
Thank you for the rubber band,
it really helped.

1145

Yeah, well, you never know
what kind of questions
you're gonna get.

Like, what's your ideal
first date?

1147
00:47:52.367 --> 00:47:53.867
Well, at least I knew the answer
to that one.

1148
00:47:54.000 --> 00:47:55.367
That was our first date.

1149
00:47:55.500 --> 00:47:56.367
I know.

of the canyon

for a sunset picnic
is your thing now?

1152
00:48:00.200 --> 00:48:01.066
I said it was my favorite thing,

1153
00:48:01.200 --> 00:48:03.400
I never said I did it
with anybody else.

Well...

It was a good first date.

1157
00:48:09.500 --> 00:48:11.133
Even though you forgot
the blanket.

1158
00:48:11.266 --> 00:48:12.400
I didn't think you noticed.

1159
00:48:12.533 --> 00:48:14.300
I didn't want to say anything.

1160
00:48:15.533 --> 00:48:17.600
And yet, you went out
with me again anyway.

1161
00:48:17.734 --> 00:48:19.400
Against my better judgement.

1162
00:48:21.233 --> 00:48:22.900
I wasn't sure it was a good idea
to date somebody

1163
00:48:23.033 --> 00:48:24.400
that you work with.

1164
00:48:24.533 --> 00:48:25.967
Walter and Lucinda
made it work.

1165
00:48:26.100 --> 00:48:27.967
Well maybe they know something
we don't.

1167
00:48:37.700 --> 00:48:39.600

Come.

Hi.

1173
00:49:13.400 --> 00:49:14.233
I didn't think
you'd be out here.

1174
00:49:14.367 --> 00:49:17.066
Yeah, well, I am determined
to make it

1175
00:49:17.200 --> 00:49:18.900
to the top of
the Hollywood sign.

1176
00:49:19.033 --> 00:49:20.066
One of these days.

1177
00:49:20.200 --> 00:49:21.934
And it's beautiful out here,

1178
00:49:22.066 --> 00:49:25.033
so, I figured, what better
place to practice.

1179
00:49:25.166 --> 00:49:28.734
Well, I admire
your determination.

I'm not in a hurry.

have someone

There's not bears around here,
are there?

Uh, probably?

1194

We're up in the mountains.

You know what,

1196
00:49:57.834 --> 00:50:00.934
maybe some friendly company
isn't such a bad idea.

1197
00:50:01.066 --> 00:50:02.200
Ok.

00:50:05.133 --> 00:50:05.900
You all right?

Yes.

1200
00:50:09.533 --> 00:50:10.266
So?

1201
00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:11.300
So.

1202
00:50:11.433 --> 00:50:13.066
What do you think of
the convention so far?

1203
00:50:13.200 --> 00:50:14.266
Oh, it's great.

1204
00:50:14.400 --> 00:50:15.467
Yeah.

1205
00:50:15.600 --> 00:50:19.066
Fans are wonderful and you know,
to tell you the truth,

1206
00:50:19.200 --> 00:50:24.166
this is probably my first
weekend away in two years.

1207
00:50:24.300 --> 00:50:26.200
I need to do this more often.

1208
00:50:26.333 --> 00:50:28.433
So why don't you?

1209
00:50:28.567 --> 00:50:30.166
Just been so afraid of the show
getting cancelled

1210
00:50:30.300 --> 00:50:33.200
that I've been working harder
than usual.

1211
00:50:33.333 --> 00:50:35.500
And you've done a great job,
bringing Preston back,

1212
00:50:35.633 --> 00:50:38.100
but, you know
there's no guarantee

1213
00:50:38.233 --> 00:50:39.433
he's going to save the show.

1214
00:50:39.567 --> 00:50:41.200
Yeah, yeah, no yeah. I know.

1215
00:50:41.333 --> 00:50:44.367
And I've played
the "what ifs" game.

1216
00:50:44.500 --> 00:50:49.934
Suppose I could turn to writing
romance novels.

1217
00:50:50.066 --> 00:50:53.066
But I'm not going down
without a fight.

1218
00:50:53.200 --> 00:50:55.500
And you could do another play?

1219
00:50:55.633 --> 00:50:58.200
If that's what you want.

1220
00:50:58.333 --> 00:51:01.500
I don't even know yet
what I want.

1221
00:51:01.633 --> 00:51:05.567
I love being on Forever.
I like the fast pace.

Normally, I don't have a problem
remembering my lines.

1223
00:51:11.133 --> 00:51:15.233
But, live theatre, you just get
that connection to the audience

1224
00:51:15.367 --> 00:51:18.333
that I also love, you know?

1225
00:51:18.467 --> 00:51:20.266
A lot of actors do both.

00:59:19.967 --> 00:59:20.700
Yup, right now.

1406
00:59:20.834 --> 00:59:22.166
And you gave me an idea.

1407
00:59:22.300 --> 00:59:24.767
Not about the show,
about the anniversary party.

1408
00:59:26.133 --> 00:59:29.033
We still haven't narrowed down
a caterer.

1409
00:59:29.166 --> 00:59:30.333
And there is one more restaurant

1410
00:59:30.467 --> 00:59:32.567
I think that we should go
check out.

1411
00:59:32.700 --> 00:59:33.633
Ok, perfect.

1412
00:59:33.767 --> 00:59:35.867
Let me just go grab something
from the printer.

1413
00:59:55.900 --> 00:59:57.500
Ok, ready.

1414
00:59:57.633 --> 00:59:58.600
Ok.

1415
01:00:03.066 --> 01:00:03.934
You know, you never told me

1416
01:00:04.066 --> 01:00:06.166
why you were at the studio
this morning.

1417
01:00:06.300 --> 01:00:08.667
I left my script
at the studio.

1418
01:00:08.800 --> 01:00:10.200
Oh, I think you're really
gonna like this new one.

1419
01:00:10.333 --> 01:00:11.734
There's a whole scene
where Preston accepts

1420
01:00:11.867 --> 01:00:14.834
his posthumous award
for saving the children.

1421
01:00:14.967 --> 01:00:15.900
It's cool.

1422
01:00:16.033 --> 01:00:17.767
Always like putting on the whole
dress uniform.

1423
01:00:17.900 --> 01:00:19.367
Oh, you wear it well.

1424
01:00:19.500 --> 01:00:20.467
Oh yeah?

1425
01:00:21.734 --> 01:00:23.600
I just...

1426
01:00:23.734 --> 01:00:26.934
I just mean it's hard to resist
a man in uniform, that's all.

1427
01:00:27.066 --> 01:00:28.767
Well, I do get more Tweets
every time I put it on.

1428
01:00:28.900 --> 01:00:29.800
Oh.

1429
01:00:29.934 --> 01:00:32.767
And, that might be why
Gregory's suggesting

1430
01:00:32.900 --> 01:00:36.667
that Preston get promoted
to Police Commissioner.

1431
01:00:36.800 --> 01:00:39.600
Hm, that would be jumping
a few ranks.

1432
01:00:39.734 --> 01:00:41.200
True.

1433
01:00:41.333 --> 01:00:43.367
I kind of like the idea.

1434
01:00:43.500 --> 01:00:44.834
Well, I'm sure I could come up
with something,

1435
01:00:44.967 --> 01:00:46.400
you know, to make it logical.

1436
01:00:46.533 --> 01:00:48.000
I'm sure you could.

1437
01:00:48.133 --> 01:00:49.934
You always find a way to make
the impossible possible.

1438
01:00:50.066 --> 01:00:52.200
Yeah, well, I wish I didn't
have to.

1439
01:00:52.333 --> 01:00:53.433
What do you mean?

1440
01:00:54.834 --> 01:01:00.667
I just wish I could write
stories that are more relatable.

1441
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:02.133
Well, not exactly Alice's style.

1442
01:01:02.266 --> 01:01:04.500
I know and it's still her show.

1443
01:01:04.633 --> 01:01:06.567
Which she wants to give to you.

1444
01:01:06.700 --> 01:01:09.000
So maybe you just have
to show her how you do that.

1445
01:01:09.133 --> 01:01:13.900
Well, I could start by making
you Police Commissioner.

1446
01:01:14.033 --> 01:01:16.066
Maybe I should finish my arc
as Detective first,

1447
01:01:16.200 --> 01:01:17.467
don't you think?

1448
01:01:17.600 --> 01:01:19.934
Well, would you really
consider staying?

1449
01:01:20.066 --> 01:01:20.934
Maybe.

1450
01:01:21.066 --> 01:01:21.767
Yeah?

1451
01:01:21.900 --> 01:01:22.967
Only for a couple weeks.

1452
01:01:23.100 --> 01:01:24.900
Oh, come on!
Why a couple weeks?

1453
01:01:25.033 --> 01:01:26.400
I mean, I thought things
were going well.

1454
01:01:26.533 --> 01:01:27.467
They are.

1455
01:01:27.600 --> 01:01:28.767
I have enjoyed myself
these past few weeks,

1456
01:01:28.900 --> 01:01:31.967
despite your less than subtle
attempts to get me to stay.

1457
01:01:32.100 --> 01:01:33.000
What?

1458
01:01:33.133 --> 01:01:36.233
It was something that you said
about Alice.

1459
01:01:36.367 --> 01:01:39.767
And about owing the show
something really stuck with me.

1460
01:01:39.900 --> 01:01:43.433
So, I thought,
maybe I'll stay,

1461
01:01:43.567 --> 01:01:45.633
help keep the ratings up
till sweeps week.

1462
01:01:49.233 --> 01:01:50.934
And here we are.

1463
01:01:52.600 --> 01:01:53.667
You want them to cater
the party?

1464
01:01:53.800 --> 01:01:55.467
I thought you said you didn't
like Café Sur La Rue.

1465
01:01:55.600 --> 01:01:57.300
Well, I was giving you
a hard time.

1466
01:01:57.433 --> 01:01:58.200
Hey!

1467
01:01:58.333 --> 01:02:00.066
We actually have some
good times here.

1468
01:02:03.834 --> 01:02:05.300
Yeah.

1469
01:02:05.433 --> 01:02:06.400
Two, please.

1470
01:02:09.100 --> 01:02:14.533
♪

1471
01:02:14.667 --> 01:02:17.066
Oh, no. I'm good,
thank you.

1472
01:02:17.200 --> 01:02:18.200
Oh, hi.

1473
01:02:19.667 --> 01:02:20.934
Thank you.

1474
01:02:21.433 --> 01:02:23.133
Great party!

1475
01:02:23.266 --> 01:02:25.467
The three of you
really pulled it off.

1476
01:02:25.600 --> 01:02:26.467
Thanks, thanks.

1477
01:02:26.600 --> 01:02:28.367
I'm just relieved
that it all worked out.

1478
01:02:28.500 --> 01:02:29.900
Has Darin mentioned
his girlfriend yet?

1479
01:02:30.033 --> 01:02:32.367
No. And I thought he was gonna
invite her here tonight,

1480
01:02:32.500 --> 01:02:33.667
but I haven't seen him
with anyone.

1481
01:02:33.800 --> 01:02:36.300
-Thank you, no.
-No, I'm fine, thank you.

1482
01:02:36.433 --> 01:02:38.400
Well, I guess he's not ready
to tell me.

1483
01:02:39.934 --> 01:02:41.700
Want to talk about it
over some food?

1484
01:02:41.834 --> 01:02:43.533
No, it's ok, really.

1485
01:02:43.667 --> 01:02:45.133
All right, well,
suit yourself.

1486
01:02:45.266 --> 01:02:48.033
[laughs]

1487
01:02:48.166 --> 01:02:50.066
Oh! Thank you.

1488
01:02:50.200 --> 01:02:52.300
Thank you.

1489
01:02:52.433 --> 01:02:54.667
This really is the perfect place
for the party.

1490
01:02:54.800 --> 01:02:58.066
It is. I think Gregory is
actually having a good time,

1491
01:02:58.200 --> 01:03:00.600
even though he does moan
a little about the show.

1492
01:03:00.734 --> 01:03:01.700
[laughing]

1493
01:03:01.834 --> 01:03:04.100
Well, then maybe it's time
we could, you know,

1494
01:03:04.233 --> 01:03:07.533
pitch him about taking
the show in a new direction?

1495
01:03:07.667 --> 01:03:09.233
Oh, honey.

1496
01:03:09.367 --> 01:03:14.133
I'm just so afraid we're gonna
risk losing our core audience.

1497
01:03:15.100 --> 01:03:16.300
Yeah.

1498
01:03:17.834 --> 01:03:18.767
Excuse me everyone,

1499
01:03:18.900 --> 01:03:20.800
if I could have your attention
for a moment.

1500
01:03:20.934 --> 01:03:23.567
On behalf of Alice and Maggie
and myself,

1501
01:03:23.700 --> 01:03:25.300
I'd just like to thank you all
for being here

1502
01:03:25.433 --> 01:03:27.467
to share this very
special evening.

1503
01:03:27.600 --> 01:03:31.066
After being married at the end
of the show's first season,

1504
01:03:31.200 --> 01:03:34.233
Walter and Lucinda are
celebrating 40 years together.

1505
01:03:34.367 --> 01:03:35.233
Thank you, Alice.

1506
01:03:35.367 --> 01:03:37.533
It was the best blind date
I've ever had.

1507
01:03:37.667 --> 01:03:38.967
[crowd laughs]

1508
01:03:39.100 --> 01:03:41.467
So, what started out as
colleagues working together,

1509
01:03:41.600 --> 01:03:44.600
blossomed into one of
the greatest romances ever.

1510
01:03:44.734 --> 01:03:45.567
Oh.

1511
01:03:46.667 --> 01:03:49.633
People say that it can be hard
to work every day

1512
01:03:49.767 --> 01:03:51.867
with someone you love.

1513
01:03:52.000 --> 01:03:55.100
It can be easy to take
each other for granted.

1514
01:03:55.233 --> 01:03:58.300
And sometimes, you just
don't tell the other person

1515
01:03:58.433 --> 01:04:00.967
how you feel
until it's too late.

1516
01:04:02.633 --> 01:04:04.467
But Walter and Lucinda seem to
have found the secret to that,

1517
01:04:04.600 --> 01:04:08.667
which, according to them,
is to respect one another,

1518
01:04:08.800 --> 01:04:10.200
and always be honest.

1519
01:04:10.333 --> 01:04:12.100
So, to paraphrase one of
the great romance movies

1520
01:04:12.233 --> 01:04:13.834
of all time,

1521
01:04:13.967 --> 01:04:15.133
I'll have what they're having.

01:04:18.600 --> 01:04:19.867

01:04:22.266 --> 01:04:23.700
Thank you.

1526
01:04:27.400 --> 01:04:29.500
Did you help him write that?

1527
01:04:29.633 --> 01:04:33.300
Oh no, that's all his words.

1528
01:04:33.433 --> 01:04:34.233
Oh.

01:04:49.900 --> 01:04:50.600
Do you want something?

01:04:50.734 --> 01:04:51.533
Yeah, sure.

Actually, you know what,
can I pick it up,

1534
01:04:52.800 --> 01:04:54.834
because I have been sitting
in my office all day

1535
01:04:54.967 --> 01:04:56.266

some fresh air.

I was grabbing lunch across the
street and saw you come in here.

Hi, I'm Maggie,

It's really nice to meet you,
finally.

I am so sorry for interrupting
whatever this is.

1547

This is an acting class

1548
01:06:06.834 --> 01:06:10.467

of a scene, so.

Ok.

Maggie, hold on.

1554
01:06:27.400 --> 01:06:29.066
That was by far the most
embarrassing moment of my life.

Then why the phony dog walker

1561
01:06:40.033 --> 01:06:42.166
and all the strange phone calls
saying it was "Zac"

1562
01:06:42.300 --> 01:06:43.233
when it wasn't?

1563
01:06:43.367 --> 01:06:44.400
Why all the mystery?

1564
01:06:44.533 --> 01:06:46.133
I'm working with her.

1565
01:06:46.266 --> 01:06:49.000
Fran's my acting coach.
This is her workshop.

1566
01:06:49.133 --> 01:06:50.000
She's the one that showed me

1567
01:06:50.133 --> 01:06:51.967
the elastic band trick
that I taught you.

1568
01:06:52.100 --> 01:06:53.000
Oh.

1569
01:06:54.500 --> 01:06:58.834
Look, my confidence was pretty
shot after New York.

1570
01:06:58.967 --> 01:07:00.100
You know, coming back
to Forever,

1571
01:07:00.233 --> 01:07:01.467
I knew I couldn't do it
without help.

1572
01:07:01.600 --> 01:07:04.266
So, I've been working
with her privately.

1573
01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:05.900
And, as you saw today,

1574
01:07:06.033 --> 01:07:07.967
gets me back in front of
a live audience.

1575
01:07:08.100 --> 01:07:09.867
That's awesome.

1576
01:07:10.000 --> 01:07:12.133
I'm sorry I didn't tell you
what was going on.

1577
01:07:12.266 --> 01:07:13.900
I had no idea it was so bad.

1578
01:07:15.533 --> 01:07:19.600
So, there's no girlfriend?

1579
01:07:19.734 --> 01:07:22.100
Only in your imagination,
which is clearly running wild.

1580
01:07:22.233 --> 01:07:23.633
Hey, you always said
that made me a good writer.

1581
01:07:23.767 --> 01:07:24.767
[laughs]

1582
01:07:24.900 --> 01:07:27.633
Oh man, and then I came
and I ruined your scene

1583
01:07:27.767 --> 01:07:31.333
and, you know, I'm just gonna
go, before I make things worse.

1584
01:07:32.200 --> 01:07:34.000
Can we just make a pact?

1585
01:07:35.100 --> 01:07:36.567
Ah, what'd you have in mind?

1586
01:07:36.700 --> 01:07:37.633
All right, this whole
thing started

1587
01:07:37.767 --> 01:07:39.567
because we haven't been honest
with each other,

1588
01:07:39.700 --> 01:07:43.867
so, from here on out, can we
just not hide things like this?

1589
01:07:44.000 --> 01:07:45.700
Friend to friend.

1590
01:07:45.834 --> 01:07:49.133
If it'll help us avoid something
like that again, I'm in.

1591
01:07:49.266 --> 01:07:50.266
Great.

1592
01:07:52.266 --> 01:07:54.300
This time I really am leaving.

1593
01:07:55.333 --> 01:07:56.467
Ok.

1594

1595
01:08:07.734 --> 01:08:09.967
That was a lovely ceremony.

1596
01:08:11.066 --> 01:08:12.200
It was nice to reconnect

1597
01:08:12.333 --> 01:08:14.333
with some of the children
that I rescued.

1598
01:08:14.467 --> 01:08:16.000
They were sweet.

1599
01:08:16.133 --> 01:08:19.467
By the way, who was that women
I saw you talking to?

1600
01:08:19.600 --> 01:08:22.266
You two seemed to be having
an intense conversation.

1601
01:08:22.400 --> 01:08:24.600
That was Scarlet.

1602
01:08:24.734 --> 01:08:26.367
I had no idea that she'd
be there.

1603
01:08:27.967 --> 01:08:29.200
That's great. Moving on.

1604

1605
01:08:30.400 --> 01:08:31.900
All right, moving on.
Second team in.

1606
01:08:39.633 --> 01:08:40.467
Scene ok?

1607
01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:41.233
Yeah, no, it's not that.

1608
01:08:41.367 --> 01:08:44.266
I just saw the latest ratings.

1609
01:08:44.400 --> 01:08:45.433
Did they dip?

1610
01:08:45.567 --> 01:08:46.600
No, they're up a little.

1611
01:08:46.734 --> 01:08:48.800
But probably not enough
for Gregory.

1612
01:08:48.934 --> 01:08:50.500
Well, maybe it's time to crack
that book open

1613
01:08:50.633 --> 01:08:52.166
and share your ideas with Alice.

1614
01:08:52.300 --> 01:08:53.166
I don't think so.

1615
01:08:53.300 --> 01:08:55.200
She has her own set vision
for the show.

1616
01:08:55.333 --> 01:08:57.367
It's the producer's job
to look after the show.

1617
01:08:57.500 --> 01:08:59.333
What do you mean?

1618
01:09:02.533 --> 01:09:04.900
Alice isn't going to be around
when you take over.

1619
01:09:05.033 --> 01:09:07.000
So, she's gonna make you
the producer of the show,

1620
01:09:07.133 --> 01:09:09.367
she needs to understand
that you have your own vision

1621
01:09:09.500 --> 01:09:11.500
about how to make
the show work.

1622
01:09:11.633 --> 01:09:14.266
And look, I saw the ideas in
your notebook and they're good.

1623
01:09:14.400 --> 01:09:17.500
I don't want to undercut Alice.

1624
01:09:17.633 --> 01:09:19.533
Maggie, it was your ideas
for Preston

1625
01:09:19.667 --> 01:09:22.734
that made me realize how much
I missed this place.

1626
01:09:22.867 --> 01:09:24.467
How much I miss you.

1627
01:09:25.967 --> 01:09:27.033
Just look what you've
accomplished

1628
01:09:27.166 --> 01:09:28.967
in the last four weeks alone.

1629
01:09:30.033 --> 01:09:32.200
You can't do to Alice
what you did to me.

1630
01:09:32.333 --> 01:09:36.100
Saying nothing isn't gonna
help her or the show.

1631
01:09:36.233 --> 01:09:37.934
I'm so sorry.

1632
01:09:40.633 --> 01:09:42.400
I'm sorry too.

1633
01:09:44.867 --> 01:09:46.033
Rhonda: Maggie?

01:09:49.734 --> 01:09:51.500
Ah. Gwen has a script question.

1635
01:09:51.633 --> 01:09:52.934
Sure, yeah, I'll be there.
One second.

1636
01:09:53.066 --> 01:09:54.000
Okay.

1637
01:09:54.133 --> 01:09:55.500
Listen, I was thinking...

See. No more secrets.

01:10:00.867 --> 01:10:01.700
Yeah.

1642
01:10:02.533 --> 01:10:03.166
Hey.

1643
01:10:03.300 --> 01:10:04.667
Zac: So what did you think?

1644
01:10:04.800 --> 01:10:06.233
Yeah, yeah, I read
the script.

1645
01:10:06.367 --> 01:10:07.433
You're right.

1646
01:10:07.567 --> 01:10:08.633
It is perfect for me.

Zac: Excellent. Can I tell
them you'll do it?

1648
01:10:11.900 --> 01:10:13.767
Give me a few more days
to decide.

Hey!

01:10:30.367 --> 01:10:32.400
I hear you're looking for me.
What's up?

1652
01:10:32.533 --> 01:10:34.767
Uh, yeah, the future
of the show.

1653
01:10:34.900 --> 01:10:37.166
Well, I mean it's
certainly better.

1654
01:10:37.300 --> 01:10:40.200
We got Darin back and
he's extended his run.

1655
01:10:40.333 --> 01:10:41.400
And, you know,

1656
01:10:41.533 --> 01:10:45.033
I wouldn't be surprised if
he actually stayed longer.

1657
01:10:45.166 --> 01:10:46.900
Yeah, but he may not.

1658
01:10:47.033 --> 01:10:49.266
And if he takes something else

1659
01:10:49.400 --> 01:10:50.934
then he has every right
to do that.

1660
01:10:51.066 --> 01:10:52.300
Yes, of course.

1661
01:10:52.433 --> 01:10:55.066
But, if we really want to keep
the show going another 40 years

1662
01:10:55.200 --> 01:10:58.667
and preserve your legacy,
then...

1663
01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:01.100
I think it's time to take
the show in a new direction.

1664

Let me say this.

1667
01:11:06.266 --> 01:11:07.333
It's time for a change.

1668
01:11:07.467 --> 01:11:10.633
I really think we need to appeal
to a younger audience.

Oh, this is a lot.

Yeah, but it's worth a read,

for the show that
I have to hear?

1688
01:12:15.600 --> 01:12:18.300
Well, I think we should take the
show in a whole new direction.

1689
01:12:18.433 --> 01:12:22.066
And tell stories that are a
little edgier and more modern.

1690
01:12:22.200 --> 01:12:24.233
I know we've always resisted
that in the past.

Well, with all
the new platforms,

1695
01:12:31.133 --> 01:12:33.800
maybe it's time we shake
things up a little bit.

1696
01:12:33.934 --> 01:12:34.767
Yeah.

things up.

And Maggie is the one person
to do it.

1699

I like that whole
contemporary angle.

1700
01:12:41.867 --> 01:12:44.367
Preston could become the CEO
of a new company,

1701
01:12:44.500 --> 01:12:46.066
he could bring medical
technology overseas

1702
01:12:46.200 --> 01:12:47.500
to some doctors.

1703
01:12:47.633 --> 01:12:48.967

You know, getting Darin back,
resurrecting Preston,

01:12:52.667 --> 01:12:55.700
that really got our numbers up
and helped the show,

1707
01:12:55.834 --> 01:12:58.800
but Maggie I think it's you
and your ideas

1708
01:12:58.934 --> 01:13:00.967
that are gonna save it.

That really means a lot.

ratings up, Maggie.

paying extra attention now

1757

to do a play again.

leveling out.

this time,

The show can stand on its own
with the new direction.

1764

I even have an idea of
how to write him off.

running through my head.

going international,

caught up in a civil war

1768
01:15:50.467 --> 01:15:52.767
and is taken hostage.

1769
01:15:52.900 --> 01:15:54.433
Might be a little too easy
for Preston.

That's right.

You know, I thought about
a car accident

more dramatic.

Preston off again?

Does it matter?

1794

What matters is
you didn't tell me,

to hide things from each other.

1796

Well, I was gonna tell you
tonight over a bottle of wine

1797

and a picnic dinner
at the top of our canyon.

have given you script approval.
