Scene 1 Viki: Drink?
David: Hmm -- you missed me.
Viki: I thought you might be thirsty. If you don't want it, that's fine.
David: Now, hold on, hold on. We both know the help could've brought that out, but thank you, it looks delicious. Oh, god -- there's no champagne in it.
Viki: Did you put a bottle on ice?
David: What's on your mind, Viki?
Viki: Oh, a leisurely day, enjoying the birth of our nation. Why? What's on your mind, David?
David: I woke up naked in your bed this morning.
Viki: Oh --
David: I was just wondering, did -- well, you know, do it?
------------------------
Clint: Forget Viki. Stay here with me.
Dorian: I'm only going to be gone a few minutes. I promise.
[Door closes]
Dorian: Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Clint: Dorian?
Dorian: Clint. Well, I certainly wasn't expecting anyone this early.
Clint: Is, uh, this a bad time?
Dorian: Oh, it's never a bad time for you. Would you like your usual, or perhaps spice things up with a Bloody Mary?
Clint: Why don't we start with an apology?
Scene 2Dorian: Clint, I missed you last night.
Clint: I missed you, too.
Dorian: I made a terrible mistake -- charging over to Viki's to insist they change the domestic arrangement --
Clint: Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. No apologies. You made your apology last night, and I was too angry to hear it. I'm not going to ask you to do it again. And as for your reaction to David and Viki, you were being honest. I'm the one who wasn't.
Dorian: You?
Clint: Yeah, you know, that scene between the two of them? It made me jealous, too. I mean, a little bit.
Dorian: I see.
Clint: Not enough to hightail it over there, but -- last night I acted as if your reaction came out of left field, which -- which it didn't.
Dorian: Well, it was terrible -- I mean, leaving you at my place, running over to Viki's to get between her and David. It could've been -- no, it was very hurtful, but that -- I -- I hope you believe me, it was not my intention.
Clint: Well, the way I see it, you gave in -- and, you know, understandably so -- to 20-odd years of antagonism. It's just your ferocity took me a little off guard.
Dorian: I'm not perfect. I am trying.
Clint: I'm not asking you to be perfect. Hell, I don't even want you to change. Because the fire that sends you over to do battle with Viki -- that's the same fire that's causing me to fall in love with you. And all I'm asking is that, you know, you choose -- choose your battles and your timing with just a little more care.
Dorian: Done.
Scene 3Dorian: Happy, happy Fourth of July!
Clint: And to you, too. You know, I've been sitting here thinking, and I -- I came up with an idea. What do you say that we go to Lanai right now and sue for peace?
Dorian: I'm sorry. How is that a good idea?
Clint: Because it's the Fourth of July, Independence Day -- that struggle for freedom, that historic moment when you draw a line in the sand and you say just, "no more, no further fighting."
Dorian: No further fighting.
Clint: What I'm talking about is a real and genuine truce between you and Viki. What do you say to that?
Dorian: I'm speechless. However, all this fighting -- it's gotten us nowhere, so why not declare peace?
Clint: If you mean that, you don't know how glad I am to hear it.
Dorian: Not only do I mean it, but let's go do it! Come on! Is there anything better than a good, old-fashioned Fourth of July declaration?
Clint: Um -- Dorian, on second thought, maybe I should take some of my own advice about choosing your battles and your timing, because the two of you just went a couple of rounds without the gloves. I don't -- maybe it's better if we wait a few days before we show up on Viki's doorstep with a treaty in our hands.
Dorian: I like the element of surprise.
Clint: You mean ambush, don't you?
Dorian: It's spontaneous, it's an indication of sincerity, and although Viki -- no, no, no, she'll be, you know, taken aback by our offer of a -- a truce. You know, hopefully, she'll see that it's coming from the right place. Besides, that woman has never met an apology she couldn't accept.
Clint: You are going to apologize?
Dorian: She'll take it as an apology by implication. Why split hairs?
Clint: Oh, man, I don't know about this.
Dorian: Clint, just give me a few minutes to change my clothes, and then trust me. We're all going to be a lot better off when this is done.
-------------------------------
Viki: Are you suggesting that I took advantage of you?
David: You wouldn't be the first. No worries, I'm just trying to account for the lost time.
Viki: No, David, we did not "do it." I told you, I am not going to sleep with you.
[Viki laughs]
Viki: No, you conked out about 10 minutes into "People Will Talk," and then you proceeded to snore -- so I slept in the guest room.
David: Then how did I end up --
Viki: Naked? Not a clue. You can work that one out for yourself.
David: I have been known to strip down in my sleep -- makes for a quicker transition to tai chi in the morning.
Viki: Ok, as Starr would say, "too much information."
David: Are you kidding? Too much is never enough. You have a standing invitation, you know, to join me. A little pushing-hands motion -- get your chi flowing.
Viki: I -- I think my chi is fine, thank you.
David: Oh, no, definitely not. I can see from here that you're completely stopped up. I can help you, you know. Why don't you take advantage of me?
Viki: David, if I gave you all the reasons, it would be so boring.
David: Hmm.
Viki: But I must ask you, please, to stop faking it with me.
David: Fake it?
Viki: Yeah.
David: I'm not faking it. I will stand on your rooftop and say, "Viki Davidson, I find you --"
Viki: David, you are obsessed with Dorian. That's what this is all about. I wish you'd stop denying it.
David: Well, you got me there. I'm truly, madly, and completely obsessed of making Dorian squirm.
Viki: Ok, your secret is safe with me.
David: Well, I'm glad we finally got that settled.
Viki: Yes.
David: Well, now it's too late for tai chi.
Viki: Oh, dear, what a shame.
David: But I tell you what -- I got a much better way to unclog you, if you're game.
Viki: Oh, my god, that is so good.
[Viki gasps]
Viki: Oh, whoa, right there -- oh, wow.
David: Mm-hmm.
Viki: Oh! Oh!
David: Does that feel good?
Viki: Oh, David, it's unbelievable. Yes! Ah.
David: I could access you a lot better if you were lying naked under a towel.
Viki: Yeah, dream on. Where did you learn to do this?
David: Zanzibar, 1991. My lover Uta reconciled with her husband. She left me penniless without so much as a first-class plane ticket. So, I was on the run from the law, had no money, so I did what any grifter would do -- got a spa services gig at the four seasons and, as you can see, was a pretty quick study.
Viki: So I'm actually reaping the benefits of your -- oh, I don't know, survival instincts, hmm?
David: Ah, pshaw.
Viki: Oh, gosh, that feels so good. Oh, yes!
David: Viki Lord Davidson Buchanan and whatever other last names I don't remember --
Viki: Oh!
David: You are one sexy mother.
Clint: Ahem.
Scene 4Dorian: Oh, my. Isn't this an intimate little scene?
David: This? No, this is pg-13. What you barged in on last night -- well, that was rated m for mature.
Viki: Well, well, well. What can I do for you today?
Clint: All right, now focus on what we came here to do.
David: We don't really do duels.
Dorian: Clint and I offer a peace to the two of you. David, what on earth is that on your ankle?
David: A GPS
Dorian: I thought that you were released from prison and exonerated of all charges. Why are you wearing a tracking device?
David: Well, Lieutenant McBain wants to keep a short leash on me till he finds Spencer's real killer. I told him just to leave me in prison, but apparently the taxpayers don't like that kind of thing. I know -- tan line's going to be a bitch, right?
Viki: You said something about peace?
Clint: Go ahead. It is our opinion that the four of us should be able to co-exist in Llanview without coming to blows every time we happen to run into each other.
David: Sounds like another empty promise to me, Viki.
Clint: Hey, watch it.
Dorian: Yes, indeed. Clint and I are willing to pledge ourselves to this new peace if the two of you are.
David: Sold, for $10 million. What? It's practically a steal.
Dorian: All of us here have done something to hurt one of the others. I mean, no one here is innocent.
Viki: Well -- ahem -- I suppose I could've been a little more welcoming to you and Clint.
Clint: And I have had my moments, too.
Dorian: And I could be more -- I could be more gracious in the future.
David: I could wear more clothes?
Dorian: No time like the present.
David: Well, fine. Look at that -- we're all hunky-dory, then.
Viki: Uh, well, um -- I have hamburgers and hot dogs in the kitchen. Um --
Dorian: Yeah.
Viki: We could have a picnic, watch the fireworks, hmm? David? Shall we make some room for them out here?
[David sighs]
David: Fine. I'll get some more chairs. I hope no one else is expecting a massage.
Dorian: Oh, thank you.
Scene 5David: Here you go.
Clint: What the hell's this -- soda pop?
David: Called a Cosmo, Clint -- vodka, triple sec, cranberry, and a twist.
Clint: I don't drink liquor that's pink.
David: Afraid of getting in touch with your feminine side there, cowboy?
Viki: Everything all right?
David: Tell him, Viki -- pink is the new suede.
Viki: I don't know what that means, David. Uh -- anything I can do?
Clint: Oh, yes, indeed. You can take this to the table.
Viki: Oh. Ok.
David: Fire's looking a little low there, Clint. Should I pour on a couple of bottles of lighter fluid?
Dorian: There you go, Viki.
Viki: Thank you. So, fresh off the grill -- help yourself.
Dorian: Um -- no, thank you. I have to watch my weight.
Viki: Why don't I get some serving pieces?
Dorian: Oh, no, don't bother. We'll rough it.
Viki: Fine. I'm starving.
Dorian: Hmm. I must say, I really admire the way you've been bearing up under, well, what must be for you considerable pressure.
Viki: May I have the mustard, please?
Dorian: Oh, of course.
Viki: Thank you. What pressure?
Dorian: Well, I know how prim and proper you can be and it must be very difficult having David running around here with barely any clothes on.
Viki: Oh, please, I've so gotten used to that.
Dorian: Have you?
Viki: Well, he's very well built, isn't he? I mean, it's very classical lines.
Dorian: And he eats like a horse.
Viki: You know, Dorian, I still shop for a family of five, so that works out just fine.
Dorian: Hmm. And he has such expensive taste.
Viki: Hmm.
Dorian: Hmm -- the drinking, the carousing.
Viki: I find him absolutely delightful.
Dorian: He steals.
Viki: Not from me.
Dorian: And the mood swings -- whoa, and his moods do swing. He'll go from sweet to stab-you-in-the-back.
Viki: Really?
Dorian: Mm-hmm.
Viki: Have not experienced that so far.
Dorian: Ah.
Viki: However, he does snore rather powerfully.
Dorian: Huh.
Scene 6Viki: Ok, tell me the truth -- le truce idea, that was yours, not Dorian's, right?
Clint: Well, it was -- a lot of Dorian, I think. Why, you find that hard to believe?
Viki: No, I find it impossible to believe. But, listen, if it works, I'll give her all the credit she deserves.
Dorian: So, you're back to the old back-massage routine?
David: Why so skeptical?
Dorian: Hmm, hmm. This is the united states of America. You need a license to be a masseur.
David: Well, jealous, if you had played your cards right, you'd be enjoying the magic of my fingers instead of Viki.
Dorian: Hmm.
