The next morning at Blue Moon, David comes in swaggering, with glasses on and a smile. As soon as he steps into his office, Herbert walks in.
H= Mr. Addison.
D= Mr. Viola.
H= I have some news. Distressing news.
D= Distressing news? Give it to me.
H= It's Miss Hayes. She's been spotted with a man.
David doesn't look quite as interested as he used to be, but he's still interested.
D= Herbert, Maddie is a woman. Women are very often seen with men. Men are even seen with men. It's a free world and I can't control everything.
H= This man... this man came to the office. This man owns a nightclub. This man is much younger than... well not much younger, but younger than you sir. And he's quite handsome.
D= Herbert, Mad... Miss Hayes and I are friends now. Why are we friends? Because we may kill each other if it's any other way. Do you understand the severity of what I'm saying? We would actually kill each other. The world is a safer place with Maddie and me as friends. As for who she dates... Maddie likes good-looking men. Hell, she dated this pretty boy you're looking at right now.
David pauses.
D= What else?
Herbert takes out pictures and shows them to David.
H= This is him.
David looks at the pictures and smiles.
D= Paulie! She's dating little Paulie! I know that guy from Philly!
David giggles. He starts to gloat and jump around the office.
D= Wait till I tell her she's dating my old pal!
Herbert looks confused.
H= Why is this good news sir?
D= Don't you get it Bert? Madeline Hayes can't get rid of me. She can try, but I always get the last laugh. She probably thinks she's got mystery guy asking her out. She's probably so happy to be back on the dating bandwagon... taking those little baby steps to get over me. She probably can't wait for me to meet him. Little does she know that this kid worships the ground I walk on!
David is laughing hard now. He gets up from his chair and dances a little.
D= The irony is too much. I can't wait. We have to be subtle about this, Bert. Don't say anything today. Not even to Agnes. I wanna lure her into a false sense of security. Is she in her office?
H= Yes, sir.
David walks into Maddie's office with pure arrogance.
D= Well, good morning.
M= Good morning.
D= How are things goin?
M= Oh, they're goin. We have a client coming in soon. Are you sticking around?
D= I'll be stuck right here.
M= Good.. good... How's Sharon?
D= Sharon? Oh, Sharon's great! She really wants to go out with you sometime. She says you're so nice.
M= Yeah, and what'd you say?
And at the same time they both say "Wait till you get to know her."
They laugh. Agnes walks in.
A= There's someone here to see you two. A Marilyn Robins.
M= Send her in Agnes.
A beautiful older woman walks in. She resembles Maddie's mother. You can tell right away she's had a luxurious life. She sits right down without being asked and begins to smoke a cigarette.
Marilyn= Hello Miss Hayes. And you must be Mr. Addison?
D= Must be.
Marilyn= I'll get right to the point, Miss Hayes. I came to you because you were a model. Not just a model, but a model who knew a certain man. A man by the name of Larry Rosner. He's an agent... an agent for many young and beautiful women. Well, my daughter Alexa is a model... a beautiful, up and coming model. A fresh face, a beautiful body. And I wish her the best. But since she's been modeling she has been romantically involved with this Larry guy... this cradle-robbing, degenerate creep. She's only 19 years old. And I do not believe that love has a specific age gap, but in this case, I know she is being used. I don't know if you understand what that's like. Do you have any children?
They nod "no".
Well, to see someone actually taking the innocence away from your child. Taking her years away. I don't doubt that love can surpass age. But in this case, in the real world, I don't think his intentions are right. I don't necessarily blame him for all of it. Maybe when a man can have anything he wants... any age... maybe all men would be like that. But I can't bear the thought. I can't bear the thought of her loving him and then being cast away when she's not young enough or pretty enough or she's no longer "the new face". I just can't bear it.
M= But Mrs. Robins, what do you want us to do?
Marilyn= I want you to follow this man. I'm sure this man has Lexi convinced that she is the only one. She believes easily and she's idealistic. She believes people are good. I raised her to be a good girl and I'm sure that if I could offer her some proof that this guy is unfaithful or involved in drugs or gambling, maybe, then she will break up with him.
M= With all do respect, Mrs Robins, your daughter is an adult.
Marilyn= I'm aware of that. But all I am asking you to do is look around. Follow him. I am offering you five thousand dollars... ten thousand if it results in my daughter breaking it off with him.
M= Well, I'll have to discuss it with my partner.
Marilyn= Oh, is this handsome devil your husband?
Maddie rolls her eyes. David smirks.
M= Well, you got the devil-part right. No, this devil is my business partner.
D= Don't listen to her. She finds me very attractive!
Maddie and David walk outside the office.
D= Okay, why shouldn't we take the case?
Maddie begins to whisper, drawing the attention of the office.
M= The man... Larry Rosner... I used to.. you know... sleep with him.
David is purposely loud.
D= Sleep with him! You used to sleep with him?
Suddenly the whole office is watching. Maddie punches him hard in the stomach and looks at them with venom.
M= We used to go out. When I first started modeling. He was my agent, David. And I still talk to him occasionally. I can't start meddling into his affairs because some woman can't let her daughter grow up.
D= I can't believe you're taking his side. So what! You knew him or know him. We're allowed to be in other people's business... that's our business. And if he's not doing anything wrong, then neither are we.
M= David, this young girl is an adult. And we can't go around spying on people who aren't doing anything wrong.
D= Oh, Maddie, we've done this a million times! People want us to look at people and to watch people and if they do something wrong or interesting we take a picture of it. You only have a problem because you know this man in the biblical sense.
M= "Knew" in the biblical sense. What does that have to do with it?
D= You're biased cause you slept with they guy... and that's not fair. We can't "not investigate" all the people you've slept with.
M= All the people I've slept with? As if I've ever slept with trillions of men! And excluding present company, all the men I've slept with were descent people!
They begin to talk at the same time.
D= Oh yeah! Descent people.
M= Yes, descent! This man was much more
D= More like phony people. All
M= of a gentleman than you ever were! And who are
D= Guys that are trying to sleep
M= You calling phony? You'd tell a thousand lies to
D= With models are nice guys!
M= To get any young, pretty model in bed! You're just
D= This guy is probably sleezy, cheesey, and easy!
M= jealous that this man that you've never met has
D= And you were probably so
M= the charm and manners to do what you could never
D= Young and bright-eyed and
M= do. You're the sleaze! This man helped me!
D= Taken with your good-looking self
M= I've never been taken with
D= to even notice that you were
M= Myself. I can't help it if men are!
D= Being taken for a ride!
Maddie screams in frustration. Mrs. Robins comes out. She looks at Maddie and David glaring at each other. She goes to Agnes' desk.
Mrs. Robins= What is wrong with them? Are they taking my case?
A= If they're arguing about it, they are probably taking the case.
Later in the evening, Maddie and David are going through papers pertaining to Larry Rosner .
D= Listen, I'm sorry.
M= For what?
D= I don't know. I guess I understand why you'd have trouble spying on a friend.
M= The only reason I agreed to investigate Larry is to prove that Larry isn't a sleazebag.
D= Well, don't be too upset if we find anything incriminating.
M= You're wrong Addison.
D= Maddie, Maddie, Maddie... you know less about men than I know about women.
M= That's a lot.
D= You know what it is... you've always been too good-looking. If you were half as pretty, you'd see how different people are when you're not.
M= Not what?
D= Good-looking.
M= So you think that I have some warped view of reality because I was a model?
D= I don't think it, I know it. Maddie, face it. You would be a different person if you were ugly.
M= That's such a lie! Maybe I wouldn't have been a model, but I have some basic characteristics that I would hope would be the same.
D= Like what?
M= I don't know. It's like saying that you'd be different if you were born rich. Isn't there something about you that would still be the same?
D= I would be totally different.
M= Well, for you, different is better.
D= Ha, ha, ha. Put your money where your mouth is.
M= What, a bet?
D= Not a bet as much as a dare. Make yourself ugly.
M= What?
D= Ugly. Make yourself completely unattractive... hideous, in fact. So ugly that dog's bark at you. And then see the world through a real person's eyes.
M= Oh, and you're a real person. Stop it David, you know you're a good-looking man. And if my life has been altered by my appearance so has yours. Do you think all those twenty-somethings that you hit on would look at you the same way if you were a little less attractive?
David smirks.
D= I never knew you found me so attractive? Well, actually, I never thought you'd admit it.
M= Well, you're okay. The only thing keeping your ego intact is the fact that you're losing your hair.
D= So, let's do it.
M= David, do what?
D= Maybe... before we go spying on your ex, we can get some disguises.
M= Disguises?
D= Yes, how about I do you and you do me.
M= Oh, like old times.
David can't help but laugh at that one.
D= I mean... real detectives wear disguises Well, let's go to a costume place and get some makeovers or shall I say, makeunders?
M= David, I may look good, but I'm naming my first gray hair after you.
David looks skeptical.
D= Like you haven't already. I know you use that "I'm worth it" crap on your hair.
M= It's for highlights.
D= Whatever.
M= Disguises, huh?
D= Yeah, I'm sick of saying I'm right. I'd like to prove it.
M= And what do you think the outcome will be?
D= Glad you asked. You, Maddie Hayes, will realize what an ugly world it really is.
M= And what will you realize?
D= Oh me? It doesn't really matter with men. Charm is more important with us. A few wise words from the old Addison and no woman can resist.
Maddie gets up from her desk.
M= Oh, please... it took you two years to get me and you tried your damnest! You are the dumbest man alive. You could actually win a "Dumb" constest.
D= Thanks. Let's go.
Cut to Maddie and David in a costume store. They are trying on clothes to the tune "The Stranger" by Billy Joel.
"Well, we all have a face that we hide away forever"
Maddie takes off her eye makeup.
"And we take them out and show ourselves"
Maddie takes off her face makeup and lipstick.
"When everyone has gone"
Maddie brushes her hair out.
"Some are satin, some are steel"
Maddie takes off her jewelry.
"Some are silk and some are leather"
Maddie takes off her heels.
"They're the faces of a stranger, but we love to try them on."
Maddie takes her suit off, left in slip.
"Well, we all fall in love, but we disregard the danger"
David puts a bald head cap over his head.
"For we share so many secrets, there are some we never tell."
David puts on crooked teeth caps.
"Why are you so surprised"
David puts on a dorky t-shirt and polyester pants.
"Did you ever let your lover see the stranger in yourself?"
David looks in a mirror and laughs.
"Don't be afraid to try again"
Maddie puts on an oversized black sweatshirt.
"Everyone goes south, every now and then"
Maddie puts on a long, loose black skirt.
"You've done it, why can't someone else"
Maddie puts on glasses.
"You should know by now, you've been there yourself."
The two of them are both looking in the mirror.
They walk out laughing.
M= David, this is fun. Where are going to go dressed like this?
D= A bar.
M= No one is going to hit on us looking like this.
D= Speak for yourself I intend to get hit on.
M= You would. This, I can't wait to see.
D= Ten bucks to whoever gets a proposition.
M= Deal.
They walk into the first bar they see. There are only a few people in the bar. They sit down near each other, but leave enough room for people who would want to approach them. For a few moments, no one did.
D= Well, I guess I'll have to make things happen.
Maddie looks on.
David, with his crooked teeth and bald head and ugly outfit, approaches a redhead.
D= Listen, I may not be having one of my better days, but I assure, what's underneath this outfit is a lot better than you think.
The redhead glares at him with a look of pity and discomfort.
David is actually surprised at this reaction.
D= No, listen honey... trust me, I am worth your while.
The woman screams "Wierdo!" and runs away.
David looks at Maddie, who is laughing and getting a kick out of it.
M= Strike one.
D= I don't see you getting lucky. Must be strange... always turning heads and now nothing.
M= It's peaceful in a strange way. I can just think and enjoy a drink with no one bothering me.
Maddie becomes smug.
M= It seems harder on you.
Just then a man approaches Maddie. He says "Excuse me... is this man bothering you?"
M= Definitely and infinitely. How could you tell?
The man addresses David. "Sir, would you kindly leave this woman alone."
Maddie smiles a bigger smile than she has in a long time. David walks away, but his eyes are still fixed on Maddie.
M= Thank you, sir. A true gentleman is hard to find.
The man says "A lady like you shouldn't be in a dump like this. Or you'll have to deal with guys like that."
M= Guys like that? We wouldn't want that, would we?
The man says, "I know this sounds strange and like it's a line, but you do look familiar."
M= Not so strange. Listen, thanks for getting that slimy guy away from me, but I'm actually waiting for someone.
The man walks away and leaves the bar. David comes back and looks frustrated.
D= Fine. I guess I have to pay for your drink.
Maddie smiles. She looks plain and simple, but her wry personality shows through.
M= The least you can do is pay for me drink... leave ten bucks.
D= Hey, why don't we stay for awhile? Got nothin else to do, lookin the way we do. Unless you have plans?
Maddie looks as if she knows something David doesn't.
M= You should probably call Sharon and see what she's doing. We'll investigate Larry some more tomorrow.
David nods as if he understands.
D= Yeah.
M= Yeah.
They leave the bar.
H= Mr. Addison.
D= Mr. Viola.
H= I have some news. Distressing news.
D= Distressing news? Give it to me.
H= It's Miss Hayes. She's been spotted with a man.
David doesn't look quite as interested as he used to be, but he's still interested.
D= Herbert, Maddie is a woman. Women are very often seen with men. Men are even seen with men. It's a free world and I can't control everything.
H= This man... this man came to the office. This man owns a nightclub. This man is much younger than... well not much younger, but younger than you sir. And he's quite handsome.
D= Herbert, Mad... Miss Hayes and I are friends now. Why are we friends? Because we may kill each other if it's any other way. Do you understand the severity of what I'm saying? We would actually kill each other. The world is a safer place with Maddie and me as friends. As for who she dates... Maddie likes good-looking men. Hell, she dated this pretty boy you're looking at right now.
David pauses.

M= Thank you, sir. A true gentleman is hard to find.
The man says "A lady like you shouldn't be in a dump like this. Or you'll have to deal with guys like that."
M= Guys like that? We wouldn't want that, would we?
The man says, "I know this sounds strange and like it's a line, but you do look familiar."
M= Not so strange. Listen, thanks for getting that slimy guy away from me, but I'm actually waiting for someone.
The man walks away and leaves the bar. David comes back and looks frustrated.
D= Fine. I guess I have to pay for your drink.
Maddie smiles. She looks plain and simple, but her wry personality shows through.
M= The least you can do is pay for me drink... leave ten bucks.
D= Hey, why don't we stay for awhile? Got nothin else to do, lookin the way we do. Unless you have plans?
Maddie looks as if she knows something David doesn't.
M= You should probably call Sharon and see what she's doing. We'll investigate Larry some more tomorrow.
David nods as if he understands.
D= Yeah.
M= Yeah.
They leave the bar.
