LOWREY:

Hey, hey. That's not cryin' Ihear.

THERESA:

Oh, it's nothing... I just boughtsome clothes. It's been so longsince I bought anything nice...

I just wanted something to wearfor Marcus when he got home. But

nothing looks right...

(starts crying

again)

He's slipping away from me, Mike.

I can feel it.

LOWREY:

(sits next to her)

Theresa. Listen to me. Nobody'sslipping away from you. Especiallynot Marcus. You can take my word

on that... As for the clothes...

Lowrey pulls a random item out of a box.

LOWREY:

Okay. Just a minor fashion

faux paux. Those cappuccinosat lunch can do that to you...

See what else we got here.

BURNETT:

That's perfectly alright -

Julie suddenly flops on the bed, wearing a gorgeous

nightgown.

JULIE:

So, Mike. Can I ask you something?

BURNETT:

Sure.

JULIE:

Do you always come to bed with yourclothes on? Or just when there'sa woman in it?

BURNETT:

I'm on protective duty. And I

want you to feel... protected.

So I'm dressed and ready. It's

okay. I've done it before.

JULIE:

Really. You think Marcus would

wear clothes to bed while on

protective duty?

BURNETT:

Sure he would. It's a cop thing.

JULIE:

Oh, I definitely have a cop thing,

too.

BURNETT:

You do?

JULIE:

Well Marcus. He's very something

... sexy. And the way I came intonight, he was throwing everybodythis way and that and he tookcontrol.

BURNETT:

Well, I drove.

JULIE:

I know. You drove well.

JULIE:

That's right, you did. And it was

exciting... But Marcus...

(bites her lip)

Something about him... His wife.

What's her name?

BURNETT:

Theresa. Why?

JULIE:

I'll bet Theresa is takin' care of

business right now.

BURNETT:

What's that supposed to mean?

JULIE:

You know, relieve his tension. A

woman'll do anything to keep a manlike that. You know what I mean?

Tonight... made me a little bithorny, I guess. I think, maybe.

It was the car chase. Or the gunsand everything. I've never shot a

gun before. Maybe it's the steelor something. I'm feeling alittle... funny.

BURNETT:

Funny?

JULIE:

I don't know. Do you feel alittle funny?

BURNETT:

Yeah... I feel a little funny.

JULIE:

Not that kind of funny.

BURNETT:

What kind of funny?

JULIE:

You know...

(rubs him)

Funny.

BURNETT:

I gotta call Marcus.

Burnett's out of bed like a shot and headed for the

living room.

BURNETT:

Seemingly stuck, once again, he attempts to move.
