PAUL: I am Emily. I am already making connections.

EMILY: Business connections?

PAUL: Yes. Don’t sound so surprised. I have been in business many times before.

EMILY: So have I, Paul and you are going about this all wrong.

At the Ryan House

EMILY: Don’t you knock Barbara?

BARBARA: I did. You probably couldn't hear it over all your hollering.

PAUL: Mom! I am glad you are here.

BARBARA: Hello son.

EMILY: You should warn me before she just drops in, Paul.

PAUL: I didn't know she was coming so soon.

BARBARA: I figured I would just…drop in. I know Emily hates surprises. I also can tell she is not happy BRO is coming back.

EMILY: Not quite. I just don’t like that he took out a loan strictly for this even though we have been struggling.

BARBARA: Well you won’t be struggling anymore. BRO will come back with a vengeance. Now if you want to take your negative attitude outside for some air I would love to talk to my son alone.

Emily gives both of them dirty looks.

EMILY: Whatever

She exits the room.

TERRANCE: I already showed you my badge. You can call his brother Roman or his friends Steve and Shane if you want.

CARLY: I find this all highly suspicious, but all I know anyway is Bo was on some mission. It involved the Dimeras. It almost always does.

TERRANCE: Good to see Bo followed protocol and didn’t tell you too much.

Terrance gets up.

TERRANCE: Well I won’t bother you any longer. Bo truly is fine though.
