THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!
[dramatic music]
Well, will you look at this? Someone sent cupcakes– to celebrate the premiere of “Body & Soul,” I presume.
Who are they from?
I have no idea. Harold said that they came by messenger. One for you, one for Chanel. And here’s the card.
“Congrats on the big premiere, from your ‘Body & Soul’ family.”
How lovely. The first episode drops sometime this morning, yes?
Yeah, at–at :.
Would it kill you to sound excited? What’s going on, Johnny?
Take a wild guess.
So you’re still stewing over that situation with Joy Wesley?
Well, it’s kind of a big situation, wouldn’t you say? I mean, what–what, do you expect me to just forget that it happened and put on a happy face? Damn it, Dad, I– I cheated on my wife. It’s all I think about.
There she is.
Oh, hey, Kate.
Hey. So excited about taping your first show of the week?
Actually, what I’m really grateful for is this dark day that we have today.
Oh, do you have something special planned, or–
Just learning my lines.
Oh. Well, I’m very pleased that you’re so diligent, but I hope you take some time to have fun too. Have you–have you met anyone new in Salem? Have you made any friends?
Just the other cast members, really. They’ve all been so nice. Especially Chanel. She actually invited me for dinner last night.
Oh, that was lovely, considering the fact that you’re trying to steal her man on-screen, right? But you’re friends off-screen. Very glad to hear that. [light music]
All right. Special delivery, Mrs. Brady.
What? [laughs] So what’s this?
Well, open it and see.
Oh! [laughing] What? A cupcake. Almost too pretty to eat.
“BS”?
Yeah, “Body & Soul.”
Oh.
What, to celebrate that the first episode is streaming today?
Obviously, yes. [ominous music] Wonder who sent it.
Look what just came for you, Abraham.
Sweet Bits?
Oh, mm, not in a Sweet Bits box. And it arrived by messenger. No actual signature on the card. Just mentioned “Body & Soul.”
Well, could be from Kate, I suppose.
Mm, nah, no. Kate would want the credit. She’d definitely sign the card.
Any educated guesses?
Some whippersnapper actor kissing your derriere? [laughter]
Hey!
Ah, good morning…
Good morning. Mwah.
Stepson. Ooh. Hope you don’t mind my just inviting myself over.
No. What do you mean? You kidding me? I didn’t want to watch the premiere of “Body & Soul” by myself either.
Right? What fun would that be, actually? And since your dad is busy in court and all the other Kiriakises are beyond stressed out, waiting to hear what’s gonna happen with Sarah’s treatment–
Mm, I know it can’t be easy, all that waiting and hoping, not knowing if she’s gonna walk again.
Exactly. So I thought maybe you and I could distract ourselves with watching the greatest show on Earth…
Hey.
And these…
Ooh! Are these for me?
A yummy–just one. A yummy cupcake. It was on your doorstep. I got one too.
Oh, nice. Who sent them?
Well, actually, the card didn’t specifically say. It just said, “From your ‘B&S’ family.”
Mm.
Personally, I think they’re from our head writer. See, he has a sweet tooth to beat the band, I’ll tell you.
Huh. Now, how would you know that?
Well, I might have helped him finish off Johnny’s birthday cake after that disastrous party. And also, have you noticed how many times desserts are mentioned in the upcoming scripts?
Oh, yeah.
And I think it’s because he’s lonely, you know, lovesick. And you know how it is when your heart is aching and you just want to drown your sorrows in all the sweetest things you can get your hands on.
Huh, huh.
And I just bet you that’s what Leo’s doing right this minute.
[groans] [soft music]
Buenos dias, Papi.
[both chuckle] [soft orchestration] announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “Days of Our Lives.”
[dramatic music]
Leonardo, tienes la sonrisa de un ángel y el cuerpo du un dios… pero la mente del diablo. [laughter]
What? I hope that wasn’t your grocery list.
Oh, come on. You speak a little Spanish. See if you can translate.
OK. So “tienes” is “you have”…
Mm.
The what de un angel?
“La sonrisa,” “the smile.” You have the smile of an angel.
[laughs]
Mm-hmm. The body of a God.
OK. “Pero la mente del diablo.” [gasps] “The mind of a devil”?
Muy bien.
Gracias,Javier. Wow, that is the loveliest thing anyone has ever said to me. Hold on. [inhales sharply] OK. Just needed to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.
Definitely not. And last night was very real too, not to mention pretty crazy.
Pretty crazy.
Should we compare notes? What do you remember? [laughter]
Well, we shut down Small Bar…
Mm-hmm.
Came back here for a nightcap, and then the rest gets a little hazy for me.
Well, maybe I can refresh your memory.
I would be ever so grateful.
So one minute, we were talking, and then the next, we were… doing something like this.
I mean, if Leo sent the cupcakes, why would he be so secretive? You know, wouldn’t he want all of us to know how thoughtful he was, right?
[laughs] That’s true. He does love people fawning all over him.
Exactly, he’d be wanting us all to be thanking him and giving him praises and props because of how generous he is, you know?
He’d be eating that up with a spoon, for sure. Well, maybe it’s from our producers.
Could be. But why would they send cupcakes anonymously?
Hmm. You’re right. Come to think of it, I know they’re on a budget and all, but why wouldn’t they spring for the whole cake, right?
Right?
Hmm.
“Your ‘B&S’ family.” You know, I am gonna call Abe and see if he knows who sent this. I mean, it could be anyone in the “B&S” family, right?
I’m sure that mystery will be solved at some point.
Yes, I’m sure. I’ll keep you posted. [light music]
So, Joy, settling in OK? I know that room’s on the small side.
Compared to a New York studio, it’s a palace.
Well, then I’m grateful for the comparison. And my grandson, treating you well on the set, I hope.
Sure is. Yeah, yeah, Johnny– Johnny’s been great. He’s the best.
I’m the worst, you know? And nothing that you are gonna say is gonna make me feel any less guilty about what I did with Joy.
Johnny, Johnny, you made a mistake but only because you believed Chanel cheated on you.
Yeah, which she didn’t, by the way.
But you didn’t know that. Look, you can’t keep beating yourself up like this. [dramatic music]
Well, at least I don’t have to do it on my own anymore. The universe has given me plenty of help with that.
What do you mean?
Chanel invited Joy over for dinner last night.
Oh, dear.
Yeah.
That must have been awkward for you.
Most uncomfortable meal of my life.
Hmm.
Damn it, Dad, there’s got to be a way out of this.
Well, it’s certainly not going to be by you walking around acting like you just lost your best friend. Johnny, you keep wearing your guilt on your sleeve like this, and Chanel is going to know something is up.
Would that be so bad? I–I wish this was just all out in the open. I hate keeping this from her. I promised Joy I wouldn’t say anything, and I don’t want to put her job in jeopardy.
And what about your job? You’re putting that at risk as well. For God’s sake, Johnny, keep your mouth shut. Chanel does not need to know about any of this.
[sighs]
Chanel doesn’t need to know about what?
[chuckles]
What’s going on? What shouldn’t Chanel know?
Johnny and I were having a discussion about your mother. Paulina and I had a rather lively disagreement yesterday about a case that I declined to prosecute.
Oh, well, I’m sure you had your reasons.
I did. I did. But your mother is family, and… I know there have been troubles on set, namely my son behaving like a world-class idiot, and I didn’t want to add to your worries. So rest assured, I will repair the damage with Madam Mayor.
OK. Thank you. I’m not worried about it.
Good, good, and I don’t want you to worry about your husband either, because even though he behaved abysmally, I’m sure, performing several acts of chivalry and declaring his undying love for you, my temporarily thoughtless son will eventually earn your forgiveness, hmm?
Well, he’s getting there.
Good, good, good. Well, then I will leave you two alone so he can continue working. Good luck, Johnny.
Yeah, thank you, Dad.
Make me proud.
Thank you.
All right.
[sighs] So I–I love what you did with the cupcakes.
What cupcakes?
You mean those aren’t from Sweet Bits?
No. No, I have no idea where they came from. It’s too bad there’s only two of them.
Why?
Oh, because I invited Joy over to watch the “Body & Soul” premiere with us. [tense music]
[light music]
Sorry. Sorry. I should have silenced my phone.
[laughs] No worries.
Everything all right?
I just missed a text. It was Chanel, actually. She invited me over to watch “Body & Soul” with her and Johnny.
Well, that sounds like fun.
Yeah. Well, you know, it’s probably just a pity invitation.
Come on, they wouldn’t have asked if they didn’t want you there, right?
Yeah.
So you didn’t send the cupcake. Neither did Paulina or Chanel.
Well, you know, Paulina thinks that maybe someone in the cast sent it.
Well, it’s kind of strange, though, that no one wants to take credit for it, right? Oh, well. Anyway, are you ready for the premiere?
Oh, yes. I’m just–I’m really excited. Hey, you know, if you and Roman aren’t doing anything, you can come and join us.
Well, looks like the breakfast crowd has almost cleared out, so that would be fabulous. And I have to admit, I’d probably be a lot less nervous if we were all together watching this first riveting episode. [soft music]
Stay for breakfast.
I wish I could, but I’m supposed to be at work. Oh, three texts from Gabi and two missed calls. I got to get going.
Ay, da, da, da, da. Today’s the premiere of my show, come on.
Oh, that’s right, tour telenovela.
Well, we call it a soap opera, but yes. And it’s one of the first things I’ve done in my life that I’m really proud of. It would be nice to share it with someone I… like.
Well, I like you too, Leo.
And you know what?
Hmm?
Screw it. I’m gonna stay.
Yeah? What about Gabi?
Mm-hmm.
[sighs] I love my cousin, but, man, is she frugal. Oh, God. She’s barely paying me above minimum wage to be at her beck and call for -.
That’s not right. You need to ask for a raise.
I mean, maybe at some point, but in the meantime, I’ve got to find another gig to make ends meet. But as for today, I’m just gonna be late.
What are you gonna tell Gabi?
I’ll just tell her that… something suddenly came up, which is not a lie.
It’s not a lie.
[laughs]
Well, whoever sent these cupcakes, classy move. Extra points for chocolate.
Oh, wait, no, no! Ooh. Alex, you can’t eat that.
Why not?
[sighs]
Bonnie, if you’re worried about my physique, I promise you, I’m gonna hit an extra minutes on the treadmill, guaranteed.
Oh, for heaven’s sake, it’s not like I’m not looking out for your abs or anything. It’s just– mm.
Just what?
I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but what if it’s poisoned? [dramatic music]
You think somebody poisoned the cupcakes?
It’s possible, isn’t it?
Who the hell would do that, Bonnie?
[laughs] A sick, twisted individual, of which, unfortunately, there are plenty in this world.
Yeah, that’s for sure. [dramatic music]
What if it’s Hattie Adams?
Hattie?
Yeah. The card said, “From your ‘B&S’ family.” She was a part of that “B&S” family. And she was furious when she found out she was getting killed off instead of me. And remember, she put a curse on the show before she walked off the set. This could be it!
Poisoned cupcakes?
Stranger things have happened.
Mm.
Remember the Great Biscuit Massacre of ?
Yeah, I highly doubt that history’s gonna repeat itself again this year, Bonnie.
Well, you can’t be too sure, can you?
Oh, God.
No.
Oh, come–
No! No, no, no. Better to be safe than sorry.
[scoffs]
OK, we made it. [laughs]
You did. You did. And welcome. Make yourselves at home here.
[chuckles] And help yourself to some snacks. Now, we have nuts and chips and, oh, of course, popcorn to nibble on during the show.
Ooh, OK, so I brought some champagne for later.
Ooh! How wonderful! Oh! Oh, and then, of course, we have the “Body & Soul” cupcake we can all share.
Well, I got Katie’s waiting for me back at the bar since she’s not big on sweets, so you guys should have that one.
Oh, no, no, no, no, not me. I got to watch my sugar, unfortunately. Besides, it was meant for Abraham, the other exec producer of the show. [laughter] Oh, so here you go, darling. You’ve been patiently waiting to indulge.
Well, you don’t have to ask me twice.
[chuckles]
Now, let’s see here.
Mm!
Whoa! [laughs] Oh, how is it?
Mm. Sublime. [laughs] You know, I feel guilty, though.
What? What’s to feel guilty–
No, I have all this cupcake, and… I’m the only one who gets to eat it.
Oh, no. What’s to feel guilty about? Come on, Abraham. You should be rewarded for all your hard work on what I know is just going to be the most successful soap opera in television history.
Hear, hear. [laughter]
So you go on. You go on. You eat that cupcake, baby. [laughs] No guilt.
No guilt.
No guilt.
Don’t have to ask me twice.
Oh. [laughs]
Mmm.
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
Et voilà. Or should I say y mira eso?
That works very well, and this looks very good.
Good, we’ve got some egg white omelets, the freshest of fruit salads, turkey sausage, and– huh, cupcake?
Wrong room?
No, it’s got the show’s logo on it. Oh, it must be to celebrate the premiere.
Ooh, speaking of which, is there anything I should know before we watch?
Let’s see. Well, the show aired for years on another network before it moved to streaming. There’s -some-odd characters, four main families, and years of living, loving, lying. [laughter]
And you write for all of those characters, all the living, loving, lying?
Behold. Everything that will befall the citizens of Pineview for the next three months is resting in this very laptop, waiting for me to bring it to life. All the drama, the intrigue, the romance.
Wow, I bet your fans would kill to see what’s on there.
Mm, maybe. But if they did, they’d probably lose interest. I mean, what’s the point in watching if you already know what’s going to happen? I think that the excitement comes from the anticipation, right? The waiting, the wondering. Is the secret gonna be revealed? Is that character that you love to hate finally gonna see their comeuppance? That kind of thing.
So you’re really good at keeping secrets, huh?
Well, I had to sign a nondisclosure, swear on the lives of my unborn children, and take a blood oath that the information stored on that laptop is never going to fall into the wrong hands.
Wow.
Mm-hmm.
Look at you, Mr. Big Deal. I am impressed.
As well you should be. Aren’t you glad you stayed?
Very.
[sighs] I would say let’s eat, but… suddenly I’m not very hungry.
Me neither. I mean, not for food, anyway.
You invited Joy over. Why–why–why would you do that?
Well, to be nice. I mean, come on, why are you reacting like this? Don’t you like her?
No, yeah, I do, of course. I like her just fine. It’s just, we–we had dinner with her last night, you know, and I was kind of hoping that you and I could watch the premiere together, you know, just–just the two of us, you know, in bed.
Mm-hmm, yeah, well, that sounds really nice…
Mm-hmm.
And we can get into bed, just the two of us, when we go to sleep, all right? But it’s too late now because I’ve already invited her.
So just uninvite her.
What? No. Come on, Johnny, have a heart, OK? She said she had nothing to do on her day off.
I’m sure she can figure something out. Just–you can text her. Explain that, you know, it’s just– it’s not gonna work out.
Well, look who I found on my way out the door.
You know, I think this get-together could use a little something, something to make it a little more festive.
Oh, I bet some cupcakes would make it a little bit more festive.
Stop! Stop! Shh!
Ah.
You’ll thank me later.
OK.
We could use a party mix, though. What you got?
I got some, like, peanuts and some oat milk yogurt.
Just the peanuts.
All right. Coming right up.
[mouthing words] You know, I’m thinking maybe we could invite Stephanie to this watch party. You know, get her to come over, knock on her door?
Yeah, I don’t think that’s such a great idea, Bonnie. We’re supposed to be keeping our distance right now from each other, remember?
Yeah, but I thought that was only at work. I mean, besides, I could be your chaperone. I could make sure you keep your hands to yourself.
Oh.
No patty fingers.
[clears throat] Thank you, but I think a little space right now is exactly what both Stephanie and I need. Plus, she’s probably doing a bunch of press right now anyway.
Fine. Fine. If you think it’s best, whatever.
Mm. [dramatic music]
All right, come on, come on. Let’s all get comfy before “Body & Soul” starts. Hey, you, Mr. Director, what are you doing all the way over there? You can barely see the screen.
No, I just– I didn’t want to– I didn’t want to crowd you guys, so…
What? No, there’s plenty of room. Come on. Sit right here.
OK. OK. Yeah. Excuse me. All right.
Well, I wish I could stay, but I’m looking forward to watching “B&S” when I get home.
Yeah, right.
I will!
Yeah.
[laughs]
Also, is no one going to partake in the celebratory “Body & Soul” cupcakes?
You know what? You can take mine because I have love scenes coming up, so there’s not gonna be any sweets for me for a while. Unless you want mine, Joy.
No, thanks. I have love scenes coming up too, so…
OK, then. Well, if no one wants this one–
All yours.
All righty, then. Well, this certainly beats the hell out of the protein bar I was going to grab for breakfast, so thank you very much.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, and congratulations, everyone.
Thank you, EJ.
But one of the… [clears throat] Benefits of being behind the camera, right?
Mm-hmm, yup. You know what? You go for it, all right? I’m going to live vicariously through you. Probably you are too, right, Joy?
Right. [laughter]
Mmm. Mmm.
[laughs]
Good.
[sighs] You’re not eating?
No, you know what? I feel like I still have butterflies. I–you know, I’ve seen the dailies. I mean, the show’s great.
Of course–of course you would be nervous seeing it all put together. Oh, but, Abraham, this was your labor of love, yours and Kate’s, and you want it to be wonderful.
And it will be.
Mm-hmm. Of course it will be. And no matter what, whether “Body & Soul” is a big hit or not, look at what you two have accomplished. You found a writer. You got the rights, a director, actors.
You and Katie pulled all the pieces together.
Mm-hmm, and in Salem, no less, an entertainment desert.
Well, no longer because of what you two did. You brought jobs here. You basically created a whole new industry in this town.
Mm-hmm. So you ought to be pretty proud of yourselves.
Well, I think we are. Aren’t we, Abe?
Yeah, definitely. [laughter]
Abe, we have come a long way from chasing down criminals on patrol, haven’t we, partner?
[laughs] Yes, we have.
All right. To Abraham and Kate.
Mm-hmm. And “Body & Soul.” Long may it live.
Oh, long may it live.
Yes! [laughs]
There you go. Yes. Yes.
Oh, and just so you know, I already have my dress all picked out for the Daytime Emmys.
What?
Oh.
[chuckles] Mm-hmm.
[chuckles]
What are you doing?
I’m trying to cue up your show.
There’s a TV right here.
Yeah, but with a screen right here, I thought we could have a more intimate viewing experience. I guess I’m underdressed for the occasion, huh?
No, you’re dressed perfectly. I just wanted to make it feel like I was, I don’t know, attending a premiere or something. Do I look like a complete dork?
No, you look great. Now, get over here.
OK.
It’s almost time.
Coming, coming, coming. [sighs]
And I think you should do the honors.
OK. Here we go. In , , . [upbeat music playing]
True love is the gift God has given which heart to heart and mind to mind in body and in soul can bind.
* This is love *
“Body & Soul.” [upbeat music playing]
[laughs] OMG, Alex. I have goose bumps! Ooh, that first episode! Wow! It was better than expected!
Bonnie, you were amazing.
Oh, you really think so?
Oh, my God, I know so. Are you kidding me? Your reaction when Kassandra finds out that she was dying from a disfiguring disease? You could see the pain in your eyes.
Oh. [chuckles] You didn’t think it was, you know, too much, a little hammy?
No, not at all. You kidding me? You are an incredibly talented actress. Really.
Alex, thank you. That means so much to me coming from you because I think you’re the talented actor.
Aw.
No, seriously. I swear to God, in act three, you had me crying. And then in act four, you had me laughing my patootie off. Sir, you’ve got it all going on.
Oh, thank you.
You do.
Thank you, Bonnie. Thank you. But let’s just hope the viewers think that we all got it going on so they keep tuning in, huh?
[laughs] Fingers and toes crossed.
Mm-hmm.
Well, I better get going. I got to learn my lines for next week.
Ah, all right. Well, thank you for coming by and watching the show with me.
Oh, honey.
A lot more fun than all by myself.
Ooh, thanks for having me, darling.
My pleasure.
[chuckles] [sighs] And, you know, I may just walk home.
Hmm.
Hmm. Think I’ll get recognized? Maybe ask for my autograph?
Honestly… I think you need to keep one of these with you just in case.
[laughs] You’re so cute. Like a button, you are. So long, hotsy-totsy.
So long.
[chuckles] [dramatic music]
[laughs] Wow. That was great.
Have to say, I do agree.
Oh, as would I. And wonderful writing. Oh, and the cast. I can’t believe the cast you put together. I mean, now, OK, I may be a little bit biased, but, oh, I’m so proud of my Chanel! Oh, I mean, that girl, she lights up a screen the same way she lights up a room.
She does. She does.
Mm-hmm.
Abe, I didn’t think we could do it at times, but we did. We did it.
[laughs] Yes.
Well, congratulations to both of you.
And I got to say, I only wish we could, you know, binge-watch, because I can’t wait to find out what happens next.
And that is exactly the reaction we want from people all across the country. [laughter]
Wow. Great first episode, right?
Yeah, it was.
And, Chanel, you– you were great.
Oh, well, thank you so much. I couldn’t have done it without my patient and understanding director.
Well, you can’t bring out what isn’t already there.
You know, I think I’ve met everyone from today’s episode, but I don’t think I met the actress who played Charlemagne.
Oh, yeah, that would be Hattie Adams.
Yeah.
What? What happened to her?
Well, she–she gave the producers this crazy ultimatum, and so they fired her.
Yeah, they killed her off, actually, and she was not happy about it. Well, that’s putting it too lightly. She actually–she went crazy.
What? What do you mean?
Well, she was determined to get back at everyone for letting her go. And then when she left, she announced that she was putting a curse on the show, so…
What kind of curse?
The kind where you make sure terrible things happen to everyone who wronged you.
Well, I mean, you don’t believe that she really has that kind of power, right?
Well, I mean, your birthday party did happen after that.
True.
[clears throat]
Huh.
You know, I ought to go. [chuckles] I–I got some lines to learn, and I got to hit up my mom. I told her I’d give her a call after the episode, so…
Oh, OK. Well, thank you for coming. This was fun. We should do it again sometime.
Yeah, yeah, I’ll– I’ll see you at work.
OK.
Well, that was kind of weird, right, the way she was just acting?
No. How–how so?
Well, I mean, she just– she left really abruptly. Would you just go make sure she’s OK? For me?
So what did you think? And be honest. I want the naked, unadulterated truth.
About?
About? About “Body & Soul.”
I told you, your body’s a ten, but we’re leaving your soul out of it.
Boy, my show, “Body & Soul.”
It was wild. Drama, intrigue, hot bodies. I loved it.
You’re not just saying that? Because you know my heart would suffer irreparable damage if you said even the slightest–
Hey, of course I’m not saying that. I think you’re a genius, Leonardo Stark.
Wow. Oh, my God. I feel seen for, like, the first time in my entire life.
Yeah, and my life will come to a screeching halt if I don’t get to work. Death by cousin. But I had a really great time, Leo.
Yeah, me too. And thank you for staying and celebrating my show with me.
It was my absolute pleasure. I’m looking forward to doing it again.
Yeah, we will. And, you know, well, just spending time with you, I– I haven’t felt like this in– in a really long time.
I don’t think that I’ve felt this way, psh, ever. Just opening up to you last night about losing my mom, it was– I’ve never really talked to anybody about that before, in that way. It really helped.
Well, I’m glad you were able to do that. And while I am very sorry for your loss, you said it was the thing that brought you to Salem, so I’m certainly not sorry about that.
I’ll see you soon, guapo.
Mm-hmm.
[chuckles]
Sorry! That was so awkward!
Awkward? It was torture. Why would you have accepted Chanel’s invitation?
Because I couldn’t think of a way out without making it worse.
Yeah, OK, I get it. But, Joy, we cannot keep doing this. Do you have any idea what it’s like for me, sitting in between you two? Every single day that I keep lying to Chanel, I feel like an even bigger heel.
You’re not gonna say anything to her, right? You promised.
Yeah, I know what I promised. OK, it’s the promises that I made to Chanel that I broke. That’s what’s killing me. I don’t know how I’m ever gonna make this right with her. [dramatic music]
[light music]
Oh! What the hell?
I have a bone to pick with you, mister.
Well, you didn’t have to take it out on that poor, defenseless cupcake. And if we’re revisiting my dropping the charges against Cat Greene–
That is a conversation that can be picked up later. But for now, since we’re not on the city’s dime, there’s a personal matter that we need to discuss.
I’m not– I’m not sure I know–
That would be your son calling my daughter a cheating slut.
Oh, that.
Yes, that.
[clears throat] Well, if I may speak for my son, he feels awful about what happened. He knows–he knows that he has screwed up, and he wants nothing more than to fix this but with Chanel. So maybe we should stay out of it.
[sighs]
Everything all right with Joy?
Yeah, yeah, she just–you know, she was just eager to get home and prep for tomorrow’s shoot, like she said.
Oh, OK. Well, thank you for checking.
You too, huh?
Oh, looking over my scenes for tomorrow, yeah. Oh, wow, it’s actually crazy. I forgot how much goes back to the first episode.
What do you mean?
Well, if Arrow had just told Faith the truth from the very beginning, then it just would have saved them both a lot of heartache, you know? So I totally get where Faith is coming from. I mean, the crime is not even as bad as the cover-up in this case. It’s worse. It’s–it’s much worse. [dramatic music]
[groans] [exhales heavily] [chuckles] Oh.
Poisoned cupcakes, huh? [laughs] Come on. Bonnie’s just being a little paranoid. It is a damn shame to let these things go to waste.
Mmm.
[sighs]
Oh. Well, that’s– that’s very reassuring, yes. Yes. Oh, that’s wonderful. Wonderful news. No, I’ll pass that along. Yeah. Well, you take care, huh? Bye.
OK, what?
[laughs]
What did the network say?
Well, they didn’t want to pass any information on about the numbers, but they said they’re quite pleased.
Quite pleased?
Mm-hmm.
No paraphrasing.
No, that was right from the source. [laughter]
