Kevin, Lucy, and Cake


(Lucy and Kathy exchange some nasty barbs. At least someone remembers Tony's birthday, and Lucy's ready for cake, but first, Kevin has something to say...)

Kevin: "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. There's been something I've been wanting to say to you all night."

Lucy: "I know. You love me madly and you can't imagine your life without me."

Kevin: "You already know that."

Lucy: "Oh, well, I'd like to hear it, again, over and over and over..."

Kevin: "All right, all right. I love you over and over again and I think I have to go to England for a few days, maybe even a week."

Lucy: "What? Just go to England. I don't care."

Kevin: "Lucy, Lucy..."

(Lucy heads for a large slice of cake and Kevin continues...)

Kevin: "Cake? No thanks. Lucy, Lucy, you know I've been thinking about taking part in this study for a while, now."

Lucy: "And you know that I think it's a lousy idea. I guess my opinion doesn't count."

Kevin: "Of course your opinion counts."

(Lucy isn't buying what Kevin's selling and walks off. Tony helpfully offers...)

Tony: "I know a good shrink, if you need one."

(Kevin is not amused.)

Kevin: "Gee, thanks. (Kevin walks over to the bar and his old pal, Mac)

Kevin: "Well, I'm in the doghouse, how about you?"

(Mac and Kevin primarily discuss Mac's history of failed relationships, until Mac finally points out...)

Mac: "It sounds like you're psychoanalyzing my relationship so you don't have to deal with yours, mate."

Kevin: "Ouch."

(As Kevin watches Lucy devour a piece of cake.)

(Later, Lucy is literally scraping the cake plate and Kevin observes...)

Kevin: "You're going to scrape a hole in that plate. All right, Lucy, you don't want me to participate in this twin study. I understand. But I'm in a unique position to benefit from this, not only as a subject, but as a doctor. I can't say, `no.'"

Lucy: "Yes, you can. It's very easy. Watch my mouth, `no.' Try it. 'No.'"

Kevin: "All right, you leave me no choice. I have to throw in my career chip."

Lucy: "Your what?"

Kevin: "How soon they forget. You don't remember dragging me down to this club so you could wheel and deal with Jax, the cosmetics king? And you even said that if the shoe were on the other foot, you would never stand in the way of my career advancement. Does that ring a bell?"

Lucy: "Possibly, but it's different..."

Kevin: "No, it's exactly the same thing. Now, pay up. Graciously."

Lucy: "OK, fine, call me from Oxford."

(Kevin attempts to kiss her, but she protests...)

Lucy: "No, I am not in the mood."

(Kevin stands and walks around behind her. He taps Lucy on the shoulder and when she turns her head and raises her face to respond, Kevin plants one serious kiss on her.)

Lucy: "Ohhh..."

(I think he won her over. He kisses the top of her head.)

Kevin: "I'll get the coats."

(And he does. Walking up to Mac, he asks.)

Kevin: "So, how'd it go with you?"

Mac: "Armed truce."

Kevin: "That's about where we are, too."

(And Kevin helps Lucy with her coat and they exit the club...)
