Tell me what you've been up to.

Oh, Fran, he's wonderful.

We just had so much fun.

You found yourself a young man.

Hey, look, I've

gotta go and change.

Tony will be here soon.

Tony?

I'm making dinner

for him tonight.

You've been seeing Tony?

That's right.

I think he is the most

fascinating man I've ever met.

And you've met so many.

You know, he's different.

And, he's so sweet.

Tony?

Sweet?

He must want something.

What do you mean?

Look, honey, you're young.

Very young and inexperienced.

Take it from an old

crow who's been around.

Don't take him seriously.

Why not?

Well, what do you

know about Tony.

What he told me.

Sure, sure, what he told you.

Look, honey, he's okay as long

as it's strictly for laughs.

But do you really know

what he's all about?

Hey, look.

All I have to know about him

is that I like him very much.

Do you know about

Tony and Andrea?

What do you mean?

Oh, don't tell me you

haven't guessed by now.

I haven't wanted

to think about it.

But you must have known

something was going on,

didn't you?

With Tony popping in and

sneaking out all the time?

Alright, I know.

But that was his past.

Honey, it's very

much in his future.

Hey, Fran, look,

don't spoil this.

This means too much to me.

Well, don't go into this

with your eyes closed.

I won't.

I don't want you to be hurt.

I know, I won't be.

You sure?

I've never been so sure

of anything in my life.

Okay,

you're a big girl now.

Well, I guess there's no sense

in my sitting around here

doing nothing.

I have a husband waiting

home for me somewhere.

I'm going to find him.

I wish you luck.

Oh, save the luck

for yourself, honey.

You're gonna need a

lot of it with Tony.

I'm gonna miss

all this, and you.

What do you mean?

You know.

I've gotta start thinking

about going back.

Helayne, don't go.

Well, I can't stay here.

With Andrea it wouldn't work.

I really don't

have any ties here.

What about us?

" Us?"

Maybe first you would like to

tell me about Andrea and you.

You know?

It's fairly obvious.

That's all over.

I wish I could believe you.

It was just an arrangement,

strictly business.

With a little loving thrown in?

I told you, that's all over now.

She doesn't matter to me.

Is it over, Tony?

I swear.

And what about her?

I don't care.

You know, I've seen

her destroy people.

She hated my father so.

Sometimes, I'm

even afraid of her.

She won't destroy us.

That's right, us.

You and me.

That sounds good.

It is good.

Helayne, you're all

I've thought about

since the moment I

laid eyes on you.

There's so much about

me you don't know.

I know enough.

Well, then, know this.

Until I met you, I never

thought I could feel this way.

It's like, wow, a

whole new world to me.

Tony, I love you.

I love you.

I never thought I'd say

those words and mean it,

but I do.

I really do.

We can get married, Helayne.

When?

Anytime you say, beautiful.

Tonight.

okay-

We'll go after my last show.

Money isn't everything.

You gotta be out of your skull!

Well, I've auctioned off

everything I own for money.

Well, you get ready to

auction those off, call me.

You couldn't afford them.

What are you doing?

I'm leaving baby.

I don't need this place anymore.

I've called you but you

don't seem to be home.

Yeah, what did you want?

Tony, I've gotta talk to you.

Yeah, what about?

Us.

"Us?"

There's trouble, Tony.

What kind of trouble?

Do I have to spell

it out for you?

You can't be serious.

Did you check with the doctor?

Of course.

What am I gonna do?

Well, you know what

to do, baby, huh?

It's legal now, just tell them

you were raped, that's all.

What kind of a

thing is that to tell me?

Look, what the hell

do you want me to say?

It's okay, baby, you

made a mistake, huh?

You just made a mistake.

Is that

all you've got to say?

Sally, find yourself

a good doctor.

I'll help you with some money.

I don't

need your money!

Everything's gonna

be alright, huh?

I have to go away.

Where to?

On a trip.

When are you coming back?

Right away.

Will you call me?

Yeah, as soon as I get back.

Call me, Tony!

Yeah.

Mrs. Trelos.

Mrs. Tony Trelos.

I love my new name.

Mm.

Mm.

Sweet of Fran,

giving us champagne.

There's a

bottle missing from the case.

Oh.

Wonder where it could be, huh?

Happy?

Mhm.

Hey-

Hey, that's not a

regular cigarette, huh?

I know.

What else did they teach

you in those fancy schools, hm?

You do love me, don't you, Tony?

Hello, Andrea.

Tony?

Is that you?

What are you doing here?

Where's Helayne?

Sleeping,

Mother.

You didn't.

We were married

last night in Tijuana.

Why?

Why not?

You certainly didn't

waste any time, did you?

Look, it's not

what you think it is.

No, of course not.

I suppose you're gonna

tell me you love her.

You won't believe

it, but it's true.

I imagine it must

have been pretty easy

to make her fall for you.

I told you you

wouldn't believe it.

You're damn right, I don't.

I know you.

All you're interested

in is the money.

Only now, Tony,

there isn't any money.

What do you mean?

I mean you blew it!

There's a stipulation

in the will

forbidding her to

marry until she's 25.

In the event she marries before

then, she loses everything.

I get it all.

I'll take care of her myself.

Would you mind telling me how?

Well, there's the record.

When it's released,

I'll go from there.

If, if, if it's released!

You see, Tony?

I'm still the dealer.

Well, then you're dealing

to an empty table, baby,

'cause I'll make it on my own.

Don't make me laugh!

I'll tell Helayne about us!

Save your breath,

she already knows.

" Tony!"

Tony, Tony, it doesn't

have to change between us.

It's over, Andrea.

While I was away, Tony,

I did a lot of thinking.

It's no use.

Tony, you know I do

feel something for you.

It's too late.

No, it's not!

Andrea, go to sleep, huh, baby?

Sleep it off.

Helayne and I are gonna

be gone tomorrow, anyway.

I won't let you go.

Tony, you can still take

care of little orphan Annie,

and have me, and everything.

It's too late, Andrea.

A big, strong man like you,

you ought to be

able to take care

of two women simultaneously.

Remember, Tony, I have the house

and all the money.

Everything.

I don't need you anymore.

You expect Helyane

to live on your salary?

She's used to having money.

She'll tire of you,

mister, you just wait.

You just wait!

I'll chance it!

Tony,

I won't let you go!

Tony!

Tony!

Tony, you said you liked

me, you told me so.

Please.

I'm not interested.

It was good enough before!

Before, the price was right.

Ugh!

Cool it, baby!

Tony.

You'll find somebody else,

I'm just not on

the market anymore.

Come here!

I don't jump when you

snap your fingers, anymore.

" Tony!"

Tony, I can't let you go!

I killed Helayne's mother!

I let Martin die!

And I'll kill you before

I let you out of my life!

Ow!

Oh my god!

I found her about 6

o'clock this morning.
