Guy: "Mr. Grey, is there a problem?"
Edmund: "Yeah, there is a problem. The problem is you. You almost killed Alex."
Guy: "Mr. Grey, I don't think..."
Edmund: "You let her ride a horse that wasn't broken."
Guy: "No, sir, I rode him first. Scorpio is definitely ready."
Edmund: "The hell he is! He threw her!"
Guy: "Well, he did rear, that's true."
Edmund: "Listen... do you know what happened the last time she got thrown from a horse? Just how competent are
you, Guy?"
Guy: "Accidents do happen, Mr. Grey. Scorpio may be a bit high-strung yet, but Alex is a fine rider. I wouldn't have
put her on him otherwise. I have too much respect for her and the horse."
Edmund: "Yeah, let's talk about that, all right? Forget the horse. Let's talk about you and Alex."
Alex returns, holding her medical bag. Alex: "Is there a problem?"
Edmund: "I was just telling Guy here that I didn't approve of the way he handled the horse."
Guy: "You know my experience."
Edmund: "Yeah, well, you don't know mine, okay? I grew up here. I grew up with your job. So I know when a horse is
not quite ready and when he's ready to be ridden."
Alex: "You can't blame him for what happened."
Edmund: "I don't blame the horse."
Alex: "I knew that I wanted to ride Scorpio, and I spooked him. It was my fault. And I'm fine. My ankle is fine."
[To Guy] "Now, I want to check your rib, make sure that it's not broken. So, please, can we just drop this?"
Edmund: "You do what you have to do. I'm going to check on the horse."
Edmund leaves and Alex goes to treat Guy.
Alex: "Sit down."
Guy: "I don't think he likes me."
Alex: "Oh, well. He didn't like me at first, either."
Guy: "Practically accused me of attempted murder."
Alex: "Take a deep breath. Does it hurt? A little bit?"
Guy: "No."
Alex: "You know, he's just keeping a promise that he made to his brother, my late husband, to watch out for me.
Sometimes he's a little overprotective. Does that hurt right there?"
Guy: "You don't strike me as someone who needs protection."
Alex: "Why do you say that? Take a deep breath."
Guy: "Well, for one, what I read in the papers."
Alex: "Oh, that. Take another."
Guy: "You karate-chopped some crazed guy into submission at a mall?"
Alex: "Yeah. It's one of my tricks, you know."
Guy: "Tricks."
Alex: "I have a whole arsenal of talents that I didn't know I had."
Guy: "Martial arts?"
Alex: "Yeah."
Guy: "Speaking Russian?"
Alex: "Apparently so."
Guy: "Anything else?"
Alex: "Anything else?"
Guy: "Yeah. What did you do before you practiced medicine?"
Alex: "I don't know."
Guy: "Some parts of my past I'd just as soon forget, too."
Alex: "My memory gaps... they're not selective. They're... they're just blanks."
Guy: "That's strange. Have you seen a doctor about that?"
Alex: "Yeah. I underwent some hypnosis. It was partially successful, but...
you know what? I'm really not comfortable discussing this with you."
Guy: "Why? Don't you think you can trust me, Alex?"
Alex: "No, it's not that. It's just the whole thing. It makes me feel uneasy. I mean, it's scary, not knowing what you
might have repressed in your life."
Guy: "Think your subconscious is doing a number on you?"
Alex: "I'm not sure what to think. All I know is that there is a large gap in my life from my residency to my practice
that I... I can't recall."
Guy: "Do you want to?"
Alex: "Yes, I do. I do now. I mean, it wasn't always the case."
Guy: "You ever have any sudden flashes from your past come back?"
Edmund returns and hears Guy quizzing Alex. Edmund: "Scorpio's still spooked."
Guy: "Yes, sir."
Edmund: "You finished here?"
Alex: "Yes. Your rib isn't broken. It's going to be stiff for a few days, so just take it easy."
Guy: "Okay. Thanks."
Edmund: "Shall we?"
An upset Edmund and Alex return to the carriage house.
Alex: "You whisked me out of that tack room so fast, I've got whiplash."
Edmund: "Yeah, well, this is a day for sudden injuries."
Alex: "If you wanted to get me away from Guy, why didn't you just throw me over your shoulder?"
Edmund: "Look, you know, you should be a little bit more careful who you confide in, Alex."
Alex: "It's not your job to monitor my private conversations."
Edmund: "Look, until we find out about your past and how you were brainwashed, you should just quit flapping your
gums, okay?"
Alex (insulted): "What do you think I am, a compulsive gossiper?"
Edmund: "It started to sound like that."
Alex: "That's because you were eavesdropping. There are rules about that."
Edmund: "Look, all I'm trying to say is we don't know a lot about Guy,
okay?"
Alex: "You checked his references, didn't you?"
Edmund: "Joe Martin checked your references when you went to PVH."
Alex: "Oh, very nice. Thank you."
Edmund: "Something about Guy doesn't ring true."
Alex: "This is very odd."
Edmund: "What?"
Alex: "Well, it's just that when he first started, I was the one that didn't trust him because I thought he was coming
on to me." (She stops suddenly) "Is that why you don't like him? Because you think he...
are you jealous?"
Edmund: "Me jealous? Of him? No, no. Hell, no."
Alex: "Why are you shouting?"
Edmund: "I'm not shouting, all right? Look, he shouldn't have put you on that horse. No way. He's a trainer. That
horse wasn't broken, ok? You could've killed yourself."
Alex: "You make it sound as though he forced me to do it."
Edmund: "Well, it was his stupid idea."
Alex: "No. I am a good rider. I thought the horse was ready."
Edmund: "Well, then you were wrong."
Alex: "That's your opinion. Guy is a very competent trainer, and his handling of Scorpio has been professional."
Edmund: "Hmm. That's why you were thrown."
Alex: "It happens. You know, I thank you for your concern about my well-being, but I'm not the only one that was
hurt. Guy took a nasty kick to the ribs."
Edmund: "Serves him right."
Alex: "Don't say that."
Edmund: "Well, he got your attention, didn't he?"
Alex: "What's that supposed to mean?"
Edmund: "Forget it."
Alex: "No, no, no, no, no. You raised the subject. Is all this macho posturing because I touched the man? Well, I'm a
doctor, for God's sakes."
Edmund: "And he's just..."
Alex: "What? Oh, I thought the English were snobs."
Edmund: "That's not what I mean, and you know it."
Alex: "What do you mean?"
Edmund: "Look... I just... fine. You can train or touch anybody you want,
okay?"
Alex: "Except for a good-looking horse trainer."
Edmund: "That's not what... I just have my feeling in my guts, Alex."
Alex: "That's jealousy."
Edmund: "No, it's not jealousy. It's caution, okay? I don't know what it is about this guy, but you shouldn't take Guy
Donahue at face value. Things aren't always what they seem."
Jack arrives and interrupts the argument. Jack: "Hey. Sorry to barge in like this, but I got some information about that warning you got on the computer."
Edmund: "Yeah."
Jack: "Is this a bad time?"
Alex: "Yes."
Edmund: "No."
Jack: "Well, whichever it is, I don't think you're going to very much like what I have to tell you."
Alex: "Can this wait, Jackson? I've got a terrible headache."
Jack: "I'm afraid I would have l to suggest that you take a couple of aspirins and hear what I have to say because
Adrian was able to trace where that warning came from."
Edmund: "From where?"
Jack: "Uppsala University."
Edmund: "Uppsala, Sweden?"
Jack: "The very one. But don't get too excited because more than likely the message didn't originate there.
Chances are it was diverted and sent through that web site so that whoever sent it could cover his tracks."
Alex: "That's comforting."
Jack: "Unless, of course, this whole thing is some kind of a hoax."
Edmund: "What do you mean, a hoax?"
Jack: "Hear me out. Suppose somebody... somebody with way too much time on their hands...
read the account of you disarming that man at the mall. They put this out there just to see what kind of a reaction it elicits, or maybe
they're just doing it for laughs."
Alex: "Well, I'm not laughing."
Edmund: "I don't think so, Jack. You know, we sent out that inquiry to the sanitarium in Wales right before that
warning came. I mean, it's too close to be a coincidence."
Jack: "Yeah, I think you're probably right. I was just trying to be a little optimistic. Listen, whatever happens, I'll get
back to you the minute I hear a thing."
Alex: "Can we discuss this later? I... I've really had a long day."
Edmund: "Ahem. Listen, I'm sorry I upset you."
Alex: "Well, you upset me."
Edmund: "Sorry. Truce?"
Alex: "Truce."
Edmund: "Alex, we shouldn't take Guy Donahue at face value. Things aren't always what they seem."
[Alex then akes a nap and dreams that Guy shoots Edmund] Alex: "No!
