INT. WSPR - DAY - HOLLY'S OFFICE Holly sits back in her chair, exhausted as Dinah and Blake continue to sling insults at one another. Tired, Holly slams her fist on the table, regaining control of the room. Holly: Ladies! Enough is enough. (pointing the chairs in front of her) Have a seat. Dinah and Blake do as they are told. Holly: Now look, Blake, I thought you wanted nothing to do with WSPR? Blake: At first. But I had a change of heart. Dinah: Of course, when you discovered that Holly was going offering me a position. Blake: Oh Dinah, get a grip! Have you not learned that the world does not revolve around you? Dinah: Unfortunately not. You don't even have the skills to be a good anchor. Blake: How hard can it be to read off a teleprompter? Holly: Ladies. Stop! I've made my decision already...You're both hired. Dinah & Blake: (bewildered) What? Holly: I am hiring the both of you. Blake, you will bring in viewers due to-- Dinah: Being Roger Thorpe's daughter, having that sham of a marriage to my father, and those trashy novels you write. Holly: No...but her fame from her best-selling novels will bring in viewers. And Dinah, your hard journalistic talent will-- Blake: Send people to a competing station when they learn that their anchor married her co-anchor's father for her trust fund, then the son of her husband before killing him in cold blood... Dinah shoots a cold stare at Blake. Dinah: I loved him, Blake. I loved Hart with all of my body and soul. Blake: Yeah but you killed him. So I really don't qualify that as love. Holly: (holding her head) Girls... Dinah: You know what, I am not going to sit here and let you dictate my feelings for Hart. Because if you wanna get dirty we can get dirty. Your history is no cleaner than mine. Dinah gets up and head for the door. She stops for a second and turns around to add one more thing. Dinah: Holly...I want you to know that I accept the job. I'll be in tomorrow. Dinah rolls her eyes at Blake before slamming the door behind her. Blake sits in the chair fuming. Blake: (to self) Damn her. (to Holly) YOU CAN'T HIRE HER! Holly: Too bad I only take what you say so lightly. Blake: Mom, Dinah Marler will drop the credibility of this station down. Holly: No she won't. If anything, you two together will draw in huge ratings. Oh and when you two join up Reginald, the male anchor I hired, the ratings will zoom through the roof. This is going to be a good year for WSPR. And on Blake annoyed, FADE OUT

IN In an interview with new the new head writer, Brandon Fluellen, he says, "These two characters will shake the canvas to the core. Nichols will play John Hu, a leader of drug syndicate who has ties to many of Springfield's citizens. Barr on the other hand will play Cecilia, who will come to take Billy off Vanessa's hands. But she too has a past with some fellow Springfielders..." OUT When asked about why the recent release of Karla Mosley and Murray Bartlett, executive producer Ed Scott had to say, "They don't fit into my vision of TGL. I want anything of the Kreizman/Wheeler era stripped of MY show! There are some of their charachers that can be saved but these two just have to go..." SOD asks, "Is there a possibility for a return in the future?" Head writer Brandon Fluellen reports, "Anything is possible but I would not hold my breath." Short Return SOD: "What is the purpose of Grady's short return?" Fluellen: "Part of Cyrus's exit. Grady is very much alive and seeing Cyrus' exit will thrust him into hiding agan."

INT. COMPANY - DAY The usual busy lunch crowd. Buzz is in the kitchen flipping burgers while Phillip sits at the bar sipping a cup of coffee. Cyrus awkwardly slides into room, grabbing a seat next to Phillip. Phillip glances over at Cyrus, clearly annoyed. Phillip: What now, Foley? Cyrus: I know what you did to my brother. You're gonna pay. Phillip: (facing Foley) What are you talking about? Is this some new scheme of yours to try and scam someone? If so, you might wanna go back to the drawing board. Cyrus: No scams here. Just solid evidence. Phillip: Really? Then shoot. The two lock eyes. An unbearable silence overcomes them. The tension is so thick it can be cut with an knife. Suddenly, the door opens and in walks Harley. Phillip & Cyrus: (stunned) Harley? Buzz, not paying attention, comes from the kitchen whistling Dixie, carrying a plate with a burger. Harley: Dad... Buzz, noticing Harley, drops the plate on the floor. Buzz: Harley...is that you? Harley: In the flesh. And on Buzz shocked: FADE OUT OPENING CREDITS http://www.youtube.c...feature=related INT. COMPANY - CONTINUED Buzz rushes up to Harley pulling her into a huge bear hug. Buzz: Sweetie, I missed you so much. Harley: Me too, Dad. Me too. Buzz pulls away from Harley with a look of concern. Buzz: Where are the boys? Harley: They are with Rick. Phillip (joining them): How are they? Harley: Good. Happy to be back home. Buzz: Home? So does that mean you're back for good? Harley: (heavy sigh) Unfortunately. Buzz: Harley!! Harley laughs. Harley: I'm joking. Just joking. A belligerent customer storms up to Buzz. Customer: Hello? I asked for a burger like ten minutes ago. I thought the service was speedy. Phillip: Well can you wait! The man's daughter just came home. Damn! Buzz: (mediating) It's ok. He is right. (to customer) I'll be with you shortly and this will be on the house. The customer heads back to his booth. Buzz: (to Harley) Later? Harley: Later. Harley kisses Buzz on the cheek. He lights up in the face and heads back into the kitchen. Harley: (to Phillip) So what did I just walk in on? Phillip: Nothing much. Harley: Yeah... Cyrus joins in the convo. Cyrus: Harley...umm...how are-- Harley: I'M FINE. Thank you. Cyrus: Well if you two would excuse me. Phillip: Bye. Cyrus exits. A tad bit of awkwardness between Phillip and Harley. Phillip: Do you wanna talk? Harley: Might as well. You weren't going to quit bothering me until I said yes anyways. Phillip guides Harley to a booth nearby where they have a seat. CUT TO INT. WSPR - DAY - CONFERENCE ROOM Holly sits at her desks, going over the budget when a KNOCK is heard on the door. Holly: Come in! Dinah peeks her head and Holly is thrilled to see her. Holly: I was wondering when you were going to arrive. Dinah: Sorry I am late. Shayne and I got into a bit of an argument. Holly: You ok? (points to the seat in front of her) Come, come sit down. Dinah grabs a seat across from Holly. Dinah: I'll be fine. So what did you want? Holly: Since your mother signed over the position of general manager back over to me, I was wanting to make some changes. I want WSPR to go back to being the hardcore news station we use to be. What I am trying to say is Dinah -- I want you to come back and be an anchor for the show. Dinah. I don't know... Holly: Dinah. You have what it takes. You have that pizazz, that spunk that will draw crowds in. I am trying to build a strong team of anchors and I want you to be one of them. I won't take no for an answer. Blake: (off-screen) Mom-- Blake barges into the room and all the attention is turned towards her. Blake: (snarky) Dinah. What are YOU doing here? I thought you wanted out of WSPR when Vanessa signed things back over to my mom? Holly: That's the reason she is here. I want Dinah to join the new team of anchors. Blake: What?! Holly: Yes. Blake: Mother, are you crazy? Dinah is all shades of controversy. Do you think the sponsors really want to invest in a two time killer? She killed Hart and now she is on trial for killing some Edmund look-a-like. Holly: She is innocent until proven guilty, Blake. Blake: Guilty my behind. I can tell you now that gun wielding Dinah was behind this man's death. Dinah: Can you two just stop for a second? Holly: (to Dinah) Hold on a second, honey. (to Blake) Why don't you think Dinah is good enough for the position? Do you know someone who could do it better? Blake: Actually I do. Holly: Who? Blake: Me. Dinah burst into laughter. Dinah: Are you serious? Blake: As a heart attack. Blake and Dinah argue amongst each other like the old times. Holly watches on grinning from ear to ear. I think Holly might be onto something.... And on Holly grinning, FREEZE FRAME FADE OUT http://www.youtube.c...h?v=f8GocilwNWM
