Hmm.

So, whether you were engaged

emotionally is irrelevant.

There's something else.

I was in no hurry to go home.

Can't somebody else go instead?

No, the board is nervous, Olivia.

They want me to handle it.

God forbid any of them should have

to change their plans on Christmas Eve.

They just want me

to talk to the boy!

Can't it wait?

No, it can't,

not after Dr. Cartwright.

Fine.

Should I drive your niece home?

Well, we always spend Christmas Eve...

I know, tradition,

but I have to cook dinner.

I have so much to do.

I-I'm not gonna belong.

Let's... let's just call Kevin to fix this.

You know what that means.

He's gonna charge double time.

Omelette?

I'm making fried eggs, Amy.

Honey, your aunt Olivia

makes the best fried eggs

in the whole world!

Do you want one?

- Yeah?

- Yep.

Try and have fun, OK?

Mmm.

Hey!

She's not mad at you, you know,

so don't worry.

- No.

- OK, yeah.

- Are you gonna help her make dinner?

- Yeah.

- Are you?

- Yeah.

OK. Are you gonna drew me

a snowman, a picture for the fridge?

Yeah.

'Cause I don't have mine yet,

you know?

I love you.

' Aw!

- Bye!

- Bye.

I thought, uh, no, I hoped...

that getting Olivia and Amy

to spend some time together would...

Maybe I just wanted

a break from Olivia.

So, what is Miss Peterson

involved in exactly?

Don't let the fact that she's a hick

from Port Francis fool you, Dr. Greene!

Come on.

She's not from Port Francis.

She's a cunning rhymes with runt.

Michael, why... I mean,

why are you attacking her?

Because she's a spying cow!

She's probably listening to us right now.

So, you don't like her?

Miss Peterson, Miss Peterson, help, help!

Miss Peterson, please!

Miss Peterson, I conjure you!

I conjure you.

In the name of Lucifer, I conjure you!

She's gonna be right there.

I conjure you, Miss Peterson!

I conjure you...

in the flesh.

- I heard something"

- There's been a misunderstanding.

Where were you yesterday,

Miss Peterson?

- Excuse me?

- Where were you yesterday?

You weren't at work yesterday.

I'm just curious to know

if you were feeling any better.

What's going on here?

I'm not sure.

Goodbye, Miss Peterson.

Listen between the lines.

Auf wiedersehen.

Bonjour!

Arnvederci!

Don't let him rail road you.

We're fine.

Leave the door open...

Uh-huh.

- ...And behave.

- Uh-huh.

So, you were worried about leaving

the patient alone with Dr. Greene?

The opposite, actually.

Worried about Dr. Greene?

Have you never met Michael?

Never.

If you'd met him, you wouldn't

have asked me that question.

I'm not sure I understand.

I'm sure you don't.

All right, now, Michael...

What do you think of that?
