#037 Wednesday June 13th

Over at the jail, Norm is visiting Cody.

Norm: Good news, I was able to get you bail, so you'll be out of here in about an hour.

Cody: Thank god, I've been suffocating in this place.

Norm: The bad news is, the DA is pushing for a speedy trial.

Cody: (upset) What?

Norm: It's all politics, he wants to get reelected and wants to get a high profile conviction on his record.

Cody: Well, that's just great.

Norm: I have a private investigator out looking for clues as to who may have purchased the gun.

Cody: What if he doesn't find anything before the trial?

Norm: I'm trying to buy us some more time.

Cody: How is Mom doing?

Norm: She's holding up pretty well, considering the circumstances.

Teddy comes to Carol's office.

Teddy: Have you forgotten about our little plan?

Carol: That is the least of my worries right now, My son is facing a first degree murder charge.

Teddy: I heard up about that, I'm real sorry.

Carol: Yeah.

Teddy: Is there anything I can do? I know you must be a wreck right now.

Carol: No, I'm fine.

Teddy: Just thought you could use a friend.

Carol: You know, I can find someone else to finish your job.

Teddy: All right, I'll admit that I was out of line for saying that, but if you fire me, you probably won't find anyone better to do the job.

Carol: You'd be surprised what I can find.

Teddy: And you'd be surprised at what I could tell.

Carol: You have no incentive to tell on me.

Teddy: Other than sheer vengeance, no, but that would be more than enough for me.

Over at McGregor, Yvette follows Cassandra out the door and into the hall.

Yvette: What do you mean you can make me an offer I can't refuse? Is that I a threat?

Cassandra: No, I don't make threats, I make bargains. I simply meant that if you cooperate, I'll make it worth your while.

Yvette: Exactly what can you do that could possibly do me any good?

Cassandra: You'll find out in do time, first I need to make sure I can trust you.

Yvette: Trust? You waltzed in here out of nowhere, I don't even have a clue what you are really up to.

Cassandra: I'm trying to set a wrong right, a wrong that your father is responsible for.

Yvette: I know, I know, you are here as some crusader of justice. The problem is, I think you have some ulterior motive and whatever it is, I don't want to be involved.

Cassandra: I've told you my reasoning, rather you believe it or not is entirely your problem, because you would be losing out on the opportunity of a lifetime.

Yvette: I think it's time for you to leave.

Cassandra: What if I told you that my plan could make you head of this company?

Yvette looks at Cassandra with a shocked expression.
