Melrose Place (1992–1999): Season 3, Episode 30 - The Big Bang Theory - full transcript

In the two-hour, nail-biting, cliff-hanging season final, Brooke and Billy announce their wedding plans to everyone. In Hong Kong, when Alison hears about their engagement and about the job...

How is he?

Well, uh, the bullet
went in and out,

but unfortunately it
shattered a piece of his rib,

and, in turn,

that cut his intercostal artery.

They're prepping him
for surgery now.

Matt, I need to see him.

Jo, I'm sorry, you can't.

He's just not
up to it right now.

And after surgery,
before recovery,

he'll just... he'll be
out of it for hours.



Why don't you get some rest,
go home.

Yeah, like hell.
I need to see him.

Jo, he didn't ask for you.

Who did Jake ask for?

Amanda...

would you please come with me?

♪ ♪

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Jess did this to me.

Jake, it's the medication.
Just relax.

You're the only one
I can trust, Amanda.

If anything happens to me,

promise you'll prove
Jess did this.

He's got to pay.



He has to pay.

"Dear Billy,
I'm about to get on a plane

"that will take me thousands
of miles away from you

"and from the life we shared.

"Everything happened so quickly,

"I didn't realize
what I've given up.

"I hope it isn't too
late to tell you

"how much I love you
and want to be with you.

"If you feel the same,

"I'll be on
the next flight home.

"If not, I'll understand if you
want to sever all ties with me.

"I leave our future
in your hands.

Alison."

This won't do at all.

♪ One day soon, gonna get,
gonna get back to you ♪

♪ Hey, hey, world,
underneath my feet... ♪

Billy...

as we both know...

long distance relationships
never work out.

How is he?

Sydney, what are you doing here?

Caring.

You're not the only one
who loves him, Amanda.

Hey...

I had a dream about you.

You were yelling at my doctors.

That wasn't a dream.

I had to roll a few heads

to get you a private room.

Hi, Jake. Sydney.

Are you okay?

Last thing I remember is a shot.

I'm fine.

Everyone else is fine.

We should go.

Stay, okay.?

I stopped by the gift shop,

picked up a couple
motorcycle magazines.

You probably
have them all, but...

I think Jake wants
oneof us to stay.

Thanks for coming, Sydney.

No problem.

I'm just glad you're okay.

Scared you, didn't I?

Hardly.

But if you ever think
about dying again,

I'll kill you.

I heard about Jake.
I'm so sorry.

Yeah, well, he's tough.

I'm surprised the bullet
didn't bounce off his chest.

Is that for me?

Yeah, but it can wait,
you've had a long night.

I'm fine, Brooke, let me see it.

Alison asked me
to give this to you.

She was very upset

that she didn't get a chance
to say goodbye to you.

"Dear Billy..."

"Take care. Alison."

Man, that's really cold.

Been together three years,

and she gives me that?

She could have at least
handwritten it out.

No, it's classic Alison.

Why make life personal
when you can just hone it

in a nice, neat,
emotionless paragraph?

Is there anything I can do?

Yeah, cover for me, I got to
get out of here for a while.

What, are you trying to kill me?

No, I'll leave that
to your wife.

She came by my office yesterday.

She was furious.

Paul, what the hell
did you tell her?

I told her that I'd
found someone else.

She immediately figured
that it was another woman.

I had to tell her
about us, Matt.

She deserves to know the truth.

Yeah, but you purposely
set me up as the bad guy.

I don't appreciate that.

Matt, it was awful.

She was crying, angry, and hurt.

I didn't...
I just panicked.

I know that that's no excuse.

I apologize.

Look, Paul, I understand
that it's difficult for you

to be honest with Carol,

and I wish I could
help you with that,

but this, um...

this just isn't
working out for me.

I'm sorry. Matt, don't leave me.

I need you now.

We can work this out.
No, we can't.

You need to discuss
these problems

with your wife, not me.

I told you,
Carol and I are not a couple.

Yes, you are, yes you are!

You may not be happy,
but you still have issues

that you need to work
out with her.

Look, I like you,

but this is so complicated.

Look, I'll be there
for you, but...

to listen.

That's all.

♪ ♪

That'll be all, Ms. Mancini.

Great, well, give me a call

if you find anything out.

Right. Will do.

What the hell
are you doing here?

Who knew robbery
and attempted murder

could be such
messy business, huh?

You don't belong here.

Jake fired you.

Well, as his next of kin,
I just rehired myself.

Besides, what do you care?
You quit, remember?

Jake does not
want you working here,

so get out,

or I'll have the cops come
back in and throw you out.

What a little spitfire you are.

You're just more protective
than a pit bull.

And if you knew anything
about what Jake wanted,

you'd still be together.

Don't fight me, Sydney.

If you want to compare,
let's compare.

I'm here because I'm family.

You're here because
you wish you were.

Right, that's why Jake
let me in the recovery room

and told security to throw
your worthless ass out.

He's mad, he'll get over it.

You know how angry siblings get

when you sleep
with their exes, don't you?

Hey. Hey!

Jake's the only
family I got, and I love him.

And I'm gonna do
whatever it takes

to keep this place running.

Now, if you want to help, help.

If you don't,
stay out of my way.

♪ ♪

This is your office.

My desk is right outside.

I've been notified

that your business supplies
from los Angeles

will be delivered tomorrow.

Oh... what a spectacular view.

It's the best in Hong Kong.

This was Mr. Armstrong's office.

You must be special
for him to give it up.

Oh, just a working stiff.

Yesterday I was in L.A.

fighting for my corporate
life, and now...

You supervise
the marketing division

of an international
manufacturing company.

We're very pleased
that you've come

to work with us, Miss Parker.

I don't even know
where to begin.

It's all so new.

Why don't you take today
to get acclimated,

and tomorrow we can tour
the production facility

and meet your department heads.

That sounds great. Thanks, Lin.

I'll be at my desk
if you need anything.

Mr. Campbell,

there's a telephone call
for you from Hong Kong.

It's Miss Parker.

Billy, we've got
dinner reservations

and orchestra seats
for "Miss Saigon."

If you talk to Alison now,

you're just bound to argue.

It'll ruin your entire evening,

not to mention mine.

Tell Alison
I've left for the day.

I'm sorry, Miss Parker,

Mr. Campbell's already left
for the evening.

Hello, Dr. Shaw.

Aah!

Aah! Aah!

Oh, damn you, Michael.

Are you sure it was Michael?

Who else could it be?

He's been harassing
me for weeks.

What?

I got something
between my teeth?

God, how could you be so cruel?

What the hell
are you whining about?

Oh.

You think I did this?
Don't deny it!

This was an incredibly
sick thing to do.

Wait a second, you're serious.

You think I put this here.

That's a good one, Kim.

Only next time,

think of something clever
so people will believe you.

Michael, why can't you
just leave me alone?

Uh, Kimberly,
everybody here knows

I've been trying to leave
you alone for months.

Woman: D&D.

Uh, yes.
Amanda Woodward, please.

This is Dr. Kimberly Shaw
calling.

Kimberly?

He's threatening me, Amanda.

He's trying
to make me look crazy.

Did he hurt you?

No. God, I can't
take this anymore.

At first I thought he was
just trying to scare us, but...

could you meet me
for dinner tonight,

Chinois, 8:00?

Maybe we should join forces.

Oh, thanks.
I'll make the reservation.

Miss Parker.

Miss Armstrong's on line three.

Hi! Hello, Alison.

How are you?

I'm fine, it's so good
to hear from you.

Everything's great,
but I miss home already.

So, um...

how's Billy?

Did he read my letter?

Yes, I gave it to him yesterday.

He seemed torn.

To be honest, I think he just
wants to start his life over.

He said that? More or less.

He said the reason that he
didn't take you to the airport

was because he couldn't face
saying goodbye to you again.

But... but I told him
I loved him.

And I'm sure he'll always
have a special place

in his heart for you.

Alison, you know Billy
better than anyone,

but you're a rising star.

Maybe deep down, he's afraid

that he'll always
be in your shadow.

I thought he was happy for me.

He is. We all are.

But Billy needs to find
his own niche, you know,

make some life choices
for himself.

And for him,
that means starting over.

The reason that I called

is because I have
a feeling that he won't.

And I thought that you
should just understand why.

Thanks, Brooke.

I appreciate that.

You have a wonderful
future ahead of you.

Have fun. Bye.

I hope I wasn't interrupting.

No, just an old friend.

Michael?

I'll call the police.

Come out and show yourself,
you spineless coward.

♪ ♪

Oh, hey, let me help you.

Get out of here.

I can barely move.

You want to try
to kill me again,

now would be a good time.

Look, I know you're angry
about me and Jo, but murder?

Huh, are you crazy?

Where were you when I got shot?

Hey was with me.

We were at my place until
we got the call about you.

That's a nice touch...

Use my ex-girlfriend
as your alibi.

Jake, you're being ridiculous.

Jess had nothing
to do with that robbery.

I knew this was a mistake.

It's last night's
gross and receipts.

I would have made
the deposit myself,

but I knew you'd
want to count it.

You opened Shooters?

Kicked out the cops,
cleaned it up,

and cleared two grand.

Don't worry, it's all there.

Jake...

he's trying to keep
your business running.

Don't bother, Jo.

He's never gonna believe
we're trying to help.

Get out.

Come on.

Stay out of my bar.

Listen, you ungrateful jerk.

You got bills due

and employees
who need paychecks.

Now, when you're strong enough,

you can personally
kick the crap out of me

and throw me out yourself.

But until then,

I'm gonna make sure
your business stays afloat.

♪ ♪

Oh, Amanda, I'm sorry I'm late.

Emergency surgery.

Hi, um, can I have
a chardonnay, please?

What's wrong, Amanda?

Michael was stalking me
in the parking garage.

He's trying to scare me.

The truth is,
it's starting to work.

Are you sure it was him?

Of course it was Michael.

He's angry about
the lawsuit I filed.

Uh, no offense, Amanda,
but Michael doesn't

give a damn about a lawsuit.

He's mad because
we both dumped him.

I thought Michael
broke up with you.

Right, just like he's telling
everybody he broke up with you.

Ah, sorry, I forgot
to consider the source.

Michael tried to keep two women,

and he lost them both.

And in his twisted ego
system, that's sacrilege.

We may not be friends, Amanda,

but we have a mutual enemy.

He's on the warpath,
and we're his targets.

It doesn't make any sense,

why would a doctor
risk everything?

Because he's not a good doctor.

I've covered for him.

So did Dr. Burns
and Levin and poor Jane.

Thank you.

We all get sucked into it.

It's... it's kind of
a sick charm or something.

Don't take it personally either,

falling for Michael's act.

You're in very good company.

I've never been at a loss

about how
to handle a competitor.

Michael... scares
the daylights out of me.

The problem is we have no proof.

We have to get him
before he gets us.

And we do that by...

Michael like to work one-on-one.

You and I
need to stick together.

He'll hate that.

I'm all for doing anything
that Michael hates.

I am so glad you said that.

I was afraid you'd think
I'm the one who's crazy.

Absolutely not.

You are the victim
here, Kimberly.

So am I.

Why don't I get us a table?

You look like you need some air.

Jake survived.

No kidding.

He really took a hit.

I need the rest of my money.

Didn't you hear me, huh?

Jake is still alive.

I don't owe you anything.

Not a good idea.

We had a deal. You screwed up.

Like hell!

You owe me!

call the police, huh?

Get out of here.

We don't use the police

Careful, you're violating
your own restraining order.

Like that matters to you.

I notified my attorney about
your little stunt last night.

Sorry, last stunt I performed
was caring about you.

I don't have time for your
denial game, Michael.

Here's the estimate for
the damage done to my Porsche.

You have one week
to make restitution,

or we call the judge.

south in your life is my fault?

I suppose you think I caused
your cancer, too?

You vandalized my car last night

Better yet, check the patient

who are legally separated?

S... significantly more lenient.

You... you filed for divorce?

The papers are being served

I don't know whether to feel bad

trouble in that area.

I left so much unfinished
business in L.A.

Well, as far as we're concerned,

I think you pretty much
finished things in your note.

Oh.

So you did read it.

When I didn't hear
from you, I thought...

Well, the reason
I didn't call was because

you gave me the option to cut
off all communication.

Yes.

Yes, I did.

Okay, um...

I understand.
