Wallingford encouraged Kathleen to talk about it. Dee tried to put in her 2¢ worth and Kathleen suggested it was past her bedtime. Kathleen said from now on it's strictly business with Mr. Winthrop. Wallingford's still clutching a shred of hope that the relationship will get somewhere. Kathleen was on her way out to get clothes to spend the night at Cecile's and who should show up on the doorstep but Cass. "My mother always said never go to bed angry" he sa. (Where have I heard this before? Has anyone else noticed that Cass and Kathleen's ROMANCE seems to be an awful lot more crowded i.e. populous than Catlin and Sally's?) He wants to talk. Kathleen doesn't but he claims his mother was immer right. Wallingford deserted her. Cass: Kathleen. This whole thing has been blown way out of proportion. Kathleen: Oh, is that what happened? Cass: That's exactly what happened. Look, I'm a MAN. FLESH AND BLOOD. You're a woman. We went out, we had dinner -- I was getting certain signals, or so I thought. I mean I thought the chemistry was right, that the time was right -- Kathleen: That is not the point, Cass. The point is that you reserved that little bedroom at the same time you reserved the table for two. Cass: They offer a package deal. Kathleen: Oh, I see, a package -- did they offer this same package deal when you took me to the Northwoods Inn the first time? Cass: Oh, no, no, no. On the first date, Kathleen? What do you take me for? Kathleen: I take you for exactly what you are. Cass: Okay, all right, go ahead and say it. I'm a sexist, I'm a pig, I deserve it. Kathleen: You're a sexist. And a pig. And you deserve it. And I'd say a lot more than that but I don't think it's going to change anything. Cass: Kathleen -- Kathleen: YES. I am Kathleen. With Kathleen's feelings. I am not an object. You do not buy me like a bottle of WINE to go with your dinner. Cass: Kathleen, I never had any intention of doing that. Kathleen: Exactly what were your intentions, Cass? I mean -- a restaurant? You wanted our first night together to be in a RESTAURANT? Don't even bother explaining anything, all right? I just don't need it any more, right? I am now going to go home, I am going to get my clothes so I can spend the night with good old Dee here, and DO NOT grab me again and give me any more wise sayings from your mother or you'll lose a hand. Exit Kathleen. Cass went after her briefly and went back inside. To find Dee comfortably ensconced in an armchair. Dee: I guess she told you, huh? Cass: Have you been listening to everything? Dee: I live here, don't I? And who could sleep with all the yelling. HEY, WALLY, YOU GOT THAT HOT CHOCOLATE READY YET?

Wallingford talked to Cass. Wallingford: You tried to put the make on her -- Cass: WELL -- Wallingford: Instead of courting her and treating her like the lady she is and she blew her stack. Such a shame, Cass. Cass: Well, I've been shot down before so don't feel sorry for me. Wallingford: Oh, I don't feel sorry for you. My sympathies are with Kathleen. Cass: HEY, I'm not exactly grinning from ear to ear about what happened, y'know. I CARE about Kathleen. And I may never have another chance with her because of this. So I get some sympathy too. Wallingford: If you cared about her, why didn't you act like it? Or are sex and caring the same thing? Cass: CLOSE. Wallingford: This boy has got a lot to learn. Cass: I don't even know why we're talking about it. It's over, isn't it? Wallingford: Oh, so you're giving up? Cass: well, what am I supposed to do? Wallingford: Well it depends on if you want Kathleen to care for you again or not. Cass: OF COURSE I want her to care for me again. Would I be this upset if I didn't? Wallingford: Okay, okay, then we're going to have to make a few changes -- Cass: Leopards don't change their spots. Wallingford: We're not talking about spots, we're talking about ATTITUDES. Cass: Look, you DO what you DO. You get out of life what you can, and you hope fro the best. Wallingford: Okay. Lesson number one: do what you want to do. Cass: Okay, what do I want to do? Wallingford: Well, how do you feel right now? Cass: A little tired, I guess. Wallingford: No, wrong answer. What are you feeling inside? Cass: Humiliated, frankly. Wallingford: No, wrong. THINK about what you're FEELING. Cass: Angry. Wallingford: Wrong. Cass: Upset. (Pause.) Ticked off? Wallingford: Cass, you're feeling SORRY. S-O-R-R-Y. Now, what do you do? Exit Cass.

MJ asked Kathleen what went wrong on her date. Kathleen spoke vaguely but volubly about Cass' egocentricity. MJ asked why she put up with him. She suggested she give him up. Kathleen agreed she should give up on him. Cass arrived and apologized. He told her he cared about her and asked forgiveness. MJ suddenly realised she was intruding on a tender moment and went to her room. Kathleen said she'd think about it. (Cass: You know what Felicia always calls me. Kathleen: Yeah. A bum. Cass: She's right. Sometimes. I mean -- reserving a bedroom right next to a private dining room -- that is kind of, um -- well, there are worse things that a guy could do, I guess -- in fact some people might not even think that it was such a bad idea -- in fact there are a lot of women who would probably be flattered -- Kathleen: CASS. Cass: What? Kathleen: Before you ruin your own apology why don't we just say that I'll think about it and I'll let you know. Cass: OH. Okay.) He offered her a ride to Cecile's. And to take her bag. And to get the door. And his arm. She said she didn't think they'd both fit through the door.
