reviewer doesn't recall Peyton ever being sharp or rude to
Thomas."] Peyton tells Mary to catch up with Thomas and tell
him, "to drive Mrs. Cord to the airport. I don't want her to
have to fend for herself. Then take the night off." [The
writers didn't want the maid or chauffeur to burn up in the
fire. Very considerate of them.]

Peyton, and he is startled when he sees her. Mary had earlier
told her to wait there for Mr. Peyton. Rita tells Peyton that

when she left, but this was not shown.] Steven calls out for
his mother and for Peyton. Through the heavy smoke, Steven
carries Martin Peyton to safety. He places Peyton on his
stomach, in the front yard, and rubs his back, an old form of
artificial respiration. When Peyton shows signs of life,
Steven rushes back inside yelling for his mother. Betty asks

that the house is empty. Betty tells Steven that Dr. Rossi has

Chandler skulks.
WA: Chris Webber has taken it upon himself to be his brother Lee's
executioner. He has stolen a gun from Ada Jacks' Tavern, and
carries it with him, awaiting the opprtunity to put an end to
Lee's destructive life. A few moments ago he had that
opportunity, but Norman Harrington, thinking it was Lee who was
about to harm Chris, separated the two brothers before Chris
could accomplish his mission. Now, Norman still
mis-interpreting, has insisted that Chris stay with him and
join a small party in progress at the apartment.
Intro: In his red rag-top convertible, Norman drives Chris Webber to
the apartment to join the Harrington's party.
Scene 1: Rodney is dancing with Rachel, as Norman and Chris arrive at
the apartment. Norman introduces Chris to Rachel Welles.
Chris says that he really can't stay, he just came up to say,
hello.
Scene 2: Rodney drives Rachel to the Carson house. Rachel wants to talk
about Allison, but Rodney doesn't. Rachel says, "Did you used
to sit out here with Allison like this?" Rodney walks her to
the door. Chandler is skulking, watching from the shadows.
Scene 3: Rodney and Constance meet up on the street in front of the
Pharmacy and he offers to buy her a cup of coffee. She talks
about how much Rodney meant to Allison. She tells him that it
is ok to see Rachel. Rodney mentions the bird feeder. They
chat but they don't go in for coffee.
Scene 4: In the foyer, Betty is gets her red coat and Steven's overcoat
out of the closet and talks to Steven. Steven kisses Betty.
Betty says that the first thing she is going to do is put in a
skylight. Steven says that Rodney used to share a room with
Norman. Steven says, "You want to live here very much, don't
you?" Betty says, "We both have a lot to prove and a lot to
gain if we ..." They go upstairs to the left and find a room
locked. [There is probably a profound meaning to this but
your reviewer didn't catch the significance.] This seems an
insurmountable challenge so they leave.
Scene 5: Rodney knocks first, then and goes into Peyton's hospital room.
Rodney asks Peyton how he is. Rodney tells his grandfather
that he is moving out of the mansion. Peyton asks if he means
while it is being redecorated. Rodney says no. For good.
Peyton says, "I'm going to miss you. I am going to miss you
because I have grown to like you. Peyton asks Rodney if his
decision to move was influenced by Betty and Steven moving in.
Scene 6: Chandler is walking on the wharf near Ada Jacks' Tavern. He
goes to a pay phone and calls Leslie at the mill. [Phone
booths were still fairly common in the 60's. At that time
phone booths often even had directories.] He talks with
Leslie's secretary. She tells him that Leslie is tied up.
Chandler asks her if it is rope or chains. [Chandler usually
isn't this humorous.]
Scene 7: Chandler goes in to the Shoreline Garage to confront Rodney.
Rodney is working on a white-over-red hard-top convertible.
Chandler asks if he is using bonded brake liners. He tells
Rodney that he has his Hastings Valley farm up for sale. He
says that Rachel is on her own. Rodney is bleeding brake
fluid. Chandler helps him by stepping on the brake pedal. The
first time it is real spongy. The next time it is hard as a
rock. Chandler is hoping to work at the mill to pay off some
doctor bills. He tells Rodney that he is glad that Rachel has
found someone here in town. He pays Rodney what he owes him.
Chandler says, "I want you to know that I trust you with my
niece." Rodney says, "I don't want your trust, Chandler. I
don't need it." He leaves saying, "I'll be around."

WA: Today, this small New England town is covered with a snow fall
that seems to muffle all the sounds of quiet desperation. Rita
Jacks Harrington and her husband, Norman, want to shout.
Although Norman stepped into a bitter argument between Lee
Webber and the blind Chris Webber, only to be accused of
intrding. The irony has left a bitter taste.
Intro: Rita walks past the Shippers Office toward the Tavern carrying a
chowder pot, with a bail. Children are in front of the tavern
building a snow man. Norman gets hit by a snowball.
Scene 1: Norman knocks the head off the snowman with a snowball. He then

bothered about last night. He admits that he is. Rita goes in
the Tavern.
Scene 2: At the mansion, Mary, carrying a folding rule, has just given
Betty a width dimension, 46 inches, as Rodney comes down the
stairs. Rodney asks Mary where his duffle bag is. She tells
him that it is at Norman's. Betty asks Rodney where he is going
to live. Rodney explains that he is going to live on the wharf.
And that it will suit him just fine. Betty says it sounds
comfortable and that he will have more freedom. Rodney says,
"The parade of beauties won't have so far to walk." [This is
possibly a reference to Sandy Webber.]
Scene 3: At the Book Gallery, Constance is talking on the phone to Dr.
Michael Rossi in New York City about Matthew. He will be back
in a couple of days. She allows that he deserves a rest. She
says they all miss the doctor very much. Elliot and Rachel

just missed Dr. Rossi. Rachel wants to know when Dr. Rossi is
coming back and if he asked about her.

asks Rita to heat a bottle of milk and then feeds it to Matthew.
Scene 6: Police Sgt. William Wilson Walker comes in to Ada Jacks' Tavern
to bring the gun license to her. After he leaves, Ada opens
the drawer and finds the gun missing from its holster. She
tries to think what could have happened to it.
Scene 7: Steven comes to visit Peyton in his hospital room. Peyton wants
some advice, legal advice. Steven complains about being pulled
away from a conference. Peyton says the police consider the
fire at the mansion to be arson. Steven says that he has no
desire to see Hannah Cord in jail. Peyton offers Steven his
legal affairs again.
Scene 8: At the tavern, Steven talks to Ada about the missing gun. Ada
allows that she thinks that Lee Webber took the gun. [Ada is
wearing two different colored strings of beads.] Ada says that
Lee has the morals of a garbage pail. Steven leaves and Mario
[Freddy] rudely asks for a beer.
Scene 9: Steven Cord walks over to the Lee Webber house and rings the
bell. The scene ends with his finger on the door bell button.

01-31-67
WA: Steven Cord is convinced that his former client, Lee Webber,
stole a gun from Ada Jacks' waterfront Tavern, and Steven is
determined to find Lee and disarm him. Steven has long
resisted any feeling of continuing responsibility toward Lee,
who he defended in court against the charge of murdering Ann
Howard. Lee was released, a decision based largely on Steven's
professional skills. But Steven's growing feeling that he had
let loose a killer is overwhelming him. Ironically, Steven
is on the wrong track. Lee's blind brother, Chris, took the
gun. And the more time Steven spends searching for Lee, the
more time Chris has, to set a plot in motion.

Clarion. Chandler told him that he is closing the farmhouse.
Scene 6: At the wharf, in a snow storm, Lee's boat has come in. Mario
[episode 308] ties up the boat to a post. Steven comes aboard
to talk with Lee. They go b'low. Steven accuses Lee of taking
the gun from Ada Jacks' Tavern. Lee denies it. Steven says
that he is sorry about only one thing, that I won't be the
one to prosecute you." Steven leaves. Lee swings wildly
breaking the glass globe of a marine lamp.

WA: On this bitterly cold night, Lee Webber has returned from a
part-time job on a fishing boat to face an angry accusation.
The boat had barely been secured to the wharf when he found
himself face-to-face with his former attorney, Steven Cord, who
accused him of stealing a gun from Ada Jacks' near-by Tavern.
The charge shocked Lee Webber because it wasn't true. But Lee
must now try to control his anger even with passing crewmen.
And he must contend with the possibility that whoever took the
gun could be determined to use it on him. Who has reason to
hate Lee Webber? His blind brother, Chris, for one. Chris
testified against him in the Ann Howard case. His wife, Sandy,
has sided with Chris. There is one other person who has reason
to hate him, Rodney Harrington.
Intro: Steven leaves the boat. Lee breaks the marine lamp. Steven
walks past Ada Jacks' Tavern.

Rodney. Lee asks Rodney where he is going to live. He talks
about Sandy. Rodney is moving his things into the garage.

room, Lee slices the canvas on Rodney's cot. Rodney grabs a
hammer and threatens Lee.
Scene 2: Lee goes to his house and puts his arm around Sandy. Lee is
abusing Sandy. Chris tries to break it up. Chris and Sandy
leave to go to a movie. Lee says that he is going to White
River to get him a barbeque sandwich.
Scene 3: Rachel is rocking in a chair, watching Matthew, as the phone
rings. It is Jack Chandler. She talks a moment and hears the
door chimes ring. She puts the phone down to go to the door.
Rodney has come to visit. Rachel unhooks the chain and lets
him in. Rachel runs to the phone and hangs it up. The phone
rings again. This time Rodney answers it. There is no reply
so he hangs up. Rachel won't tell Rodney who called. Rachel
tells Rodney to go away. Rodney hugs and kisses her. Rodney
says he's going to see Chandler.
Scene 4: Norman is walking across the square and is hit with a snowball.
Elliot says he thought it was Constance. Norman said there
were two people he would never have thought would throw a snow
ball, Martin Peyton and Elliot Carson. Connie walks over. She
and Elliot are going ice skating. She calls Rachel to check on
things. There is now a phone booth in front of the Peyton
Pharmacy by the apartment stairs. Rachel takes a long time to
answer.
Scene 5: On the wharf, Rodney calls to Chandler. Chandler goes into the
Cider Barrel cafe and Rodney follows. The cash register shows
$0.75. Rodney talks and then threatens Chandler. Chandler
says, "I'm no Joe Chernak." Rodney glares as Chandler leaves.
Scene 6: Lee goes home and searches under the bed, in a flower pot, in a
chair, then in another chair. He finds the gun in the sofa.

Chris and Sandy make a deal and Chris heads for the house
to kill Lee.
WA: For Chris Webber, this is the time of waiting, determined to
punish his brother Lee, for the death of Ann Howard. Chris has
a gun, taken from Ada Jacks tavern. A gun he knows he must
use. But he must find the opportunity. For Sandy Webber, Lee
Webber's wife, this is the time of decision. Unaware that
Chris has the gun, she knows she cannot return to her husband's
house. Ironically, her desire to stay away runs head-on into
Chris' desire to return home, take the gun from its hiding
place and press the trigger.
Intro: Chris is walking on the wharf with Sandy following close
behind. They walk past the rooming house stairs toward the
Cider Barrel.
Written by Ann Marcus and Jerry Ziegman
Directed by Walter Doniger
Scene 1: Chris comes into the Cider Barrel and bangs his cane on the
counter stools to make a racket. Charlie tells Sandy he knows
that she is off duty but would like for her to help him. His
bus boy has the flu. But she says she's busy. Chris
apologizes to the folks for the noise he made. Sandy tells
Chris that she cannot stay in the house any longer. They begin
to talk about leaving that very night. Chris tells her that he
is on her side. Sandy says that she has a few dollars and
Chris says that he has some cash stashed at the house. Chris
says that Lee is most likely in White Water, drinking. Sandy
says she will call and see if he is home. Sandy uses the Cider
Barrel pay phone and calls the house to see if Lee is there.
She lets it ring three times. There is no answer. She hangs
up and gets her dime back. She says that Lee must still be in
White River drinking. [He said he was going for a barbecue
sandwich.] She abruptly asks Chris if he took the gun from
Ada's. In response, Chris asks Sandy how many blind
marksmen she knows of. [In answering this way, Chris
doesn't actually tell a lie.] Charlie again asks Sandy to
help. She again declines. Chris asks Sandy for her door key.
She gives it to him. He tells her to stay there. He leaves
and Sandy observes through the window.
Scene 2: In Peyton's hospital room, he is saying, "No, No, No, miss
Stacy. The dressing gown goes on top." Nurse Stacy packs
Martin Peyton's suitcase but tells him that he must have Dr.
Fielding's permission to leave. Betty comes in and Peyton
tells her that he is ready to leave the hospital. She asks
what this nonsense is about his wanting to leave. He says it
is not nonsense and to have Thomas come up to his room. She
says that Thomas did not bring her. Betty mentions that Rodney
has moved out of the house. Betty tells him that his room is
not ready and the house is a mess. Betty says that the house
will be a real home for all of them. She mentions that Peyton
has had pneumonia. Peyton says that he is sure that she can
handle the household responsibilities. Betty asks Peyton to be
civil to the nurse. Betty says goodbye and leaves.
Scene 3: Chris arrives at the house, unlocks the door, and shouts for
Lee, of course, expecting him to be not there. Chris calls
out, "Lee, Lee, are you home?" He drops the keys on the table
by the front door. He begins memorizing the room and prepares
a trap for Lee. He digs the gun out of the sofa. He moves two
dining table chairs. He moves two chairs and finds some twine.
He prepares the trap by tying a string to the door knob and to
a chair about 15 feet away. The other chair is for him to sit
in. He ties it to the door knob. He ties the other end to
one of the chairs. The string is for aiming. Outside, Lee is
waiting. Lee leaves. Chris cocks the gun and prepares to
shoot. Back inside, Chris takes aim. Lee turns around and
goes away.
Scene 4: In the mansion, Ada comes in and talks with Steven Cord. She
has figured out that Chris, not Lee, has the gun. She tells
Steven that she now realizes that it was Chris, not Lee, that
took the gun. The phone rings twice and Steven answers. The
call is from Lee and Steven is told that Chris is threatening
to commit suicide because of the death of Ann Howard. Steven
doesn't believe Lee. Lee tells Steven to get down to the
wharf. Lee tells Steven to get down to the wharf. The door
chimes ring. Steven lets Betty in and gives her a report. She
asks what business is it of his. They kiss. He leaves.

from outside. She gets up and goes over to the window. She
sees Elliot and Constance outside. She rushes downstairs to
the front door and lets them in. They have been ice-skating.
Elliot tells Rachel that he will have to get her some skates.
Constance goes upstairs to take a hot bath. Elliot asks Rachel
if she is concerned about being alone in the house. She denies
it. She won't admit any fear. Elliot tells Rachel he
appreciates her concern for Matthew.
Scene 6: In the Cider Barrel, Sandy is drinking and Charlie is over by
the cash register. Charlie continues to complain about the
bus-boy having the flu, and not being there to work. Charlie
asks Sandy why she is hanging around. She doesn't want to
answer. Sandy goes to the pay phone on the wall. She puts in
a dime and dials 7 digits. Chris turns and looks at the
ringing phone. He tries to ignore it. He raises the gun and
assumes a firing position.

Dr. Rossi returns from vacation in New York City.
WA: A fresh snowfall hit Peyton Place last night. A clean and
fresh fall that seemed to cover up the tragedy of blind
Chris Webber, who Steven Cord put on a transcontinental
bus. A bus headed for a new life. Today, as the sun
breaks on the square, Eli Carson begins to sweep away the
new snow. A simple act of great meaning to one who has
left a small town and one who has made the decision to
return to it.
Intro: Returning from New York, Dr. Rossi drives by the Colonial
Post Inn, and Town Hall and drives half-way around the
square and parks in front of the Clarion and General Store.
[In episode 301, Rossi told Elliot and Constance that he
would be gone a couple of days.]
Written by John Wilder and Carol Sobieski
Directed by William J. Hole, Jr.
Scene 1: Dr. Rossi gets out of his new red sports car. Delighted to
see the doctor, Eli invites him into the Clarion for
coffee. A pot of coffee is on the wood stove, along with
some roasted chestnuts. Rossi asks Eli to give him the
latest gossip. Rodney, Norman, Rita, Steven, Betty,
Peyton, Matthew, Constance, Elliot, Matthew, Lee, and
finally Rachel. Eli talks about the fire at the Peyton
mansion and that Steven is moving in. Rossi says "musical
grandsons." Dr. Rossi gives a lame response and leaves.
Rossi says, "What about Rachel? How's she working out."
Eli says that she misses him. Eli tells him that he is
glad he's back. Rossi responds that he is glad to be back.
Eli asks why he left so suddenly. Rossi leaves.
MEL: Your reviewer infers that Rossi bought his new red sports
car in New York and drove it back to Peyton Place
with the puppy and other gifts and purchases. If he did
so, he would have been required to "naturalize" the car in
Massachusetts. He would have also had to pay New York
sales tax on the car. It would have been more logical to
have bought the car in Boston or White River or even Peyton
Place. But then, transporting the puppy might have been a
problem.
Scene 2: In his office, Steven Cord looks out his window and talks
with Sandy Webber about her divorce. Steven tells Sandy
that he is too busy to take her divorce case. She says
that everyone tells her she is a big girl. She can take
care of herself.
SC: Well, if you've made up your mind, I'll give you the
names of a couple of attorneys who can help you.
SW: Then you won't do it? SC: No.
His secretary, miss Nolan, buzzes him and says, "Your wife
is here, Mr. Cord." Sandy goes out to the reception room.
Sandy says that she understands that Betty is moving into
the Peyton house today. Sandy says she also is making a
move. Sandy says goodbye and leaves.
Betty goes into Steven's office. She says that somehow she
just can't see Sandy with Rodney. Betty says, "Is Sandy
like me?" Steven tells Betty that he loves her. Betty
tells him that she will always love him. He holds her face
in his hands. They kiss.
Scene 3: Mary opens the door and welcomes Mr. Peyton home. Peyton
tells Thomas to put the car away. Mary asks if she can get
anything for him. Steven comes down the stairs and
welcomes his grandfather home. Peyton asks Steven if he
has moved in already. Steven says that he has. Peyton
sits and rides around in his motorized wheel-chair. Peyton
says that he is amazed at how the work is progressing.
Betty comes in and says "Welcome home, Mr. Peyton." Peyton
says, "Well, Betty. What a surprise." Peyton mentions the
chess set. Betty asks Peyton to teach her chess. The door
chime rings. Betty says she will get it. Peyton says,
"Betty, the queen never makes the first move. The pawns
move first." Mary admits Leslie. Leslie comes in to speak
to Peyton. Peyton says, "I am in no mood to talk to an
uninvited visitor." Leslie is hostile. He wants something
for his sons. Leslie says, "I don't intend to let my sons
be pushed around by this spurious accident of nature."
Steven says, "I'll remember those words, Mr. Harrington."
Leslie says, "How could you forget them?"

of now.
Scene 2: Chandler goes to the Shoreline Garage, knocks, and goes in.
Chandler says he wants to talk. Chandler tells Rodney that
he was right. He isn't going to bother Rachel any more.
Chandler says that he saw Rodney with Rachel. He says that
Rachel is not like most of the other girls. She was raised
different. He tells Rodney to take it easy. Rodney tells
Chandler to stay away from Rachel. Rodney says that he
doesn't need any advice on how to treat Rachel. Chandler

breakfast. He tells her about the time he went to sleep in
Mr. Hillyard's class. That's the class in which he is
failing. Rita almost faints and almost collapses. She
says that she feels dizzy. Norman now has to help her to
the sofa. Norman tells her that she should call Mr.
Courtney at the Pharmacy and tell him that she is ill and
won't be coming in. Norman telephones Mr. Courtney and Dr.
Rossi.

sheet to protect it from paint and dust. Betty comes in,
climbs up on a 6 foot step ladder and talks with Steven.
The space over the fireplace is still bare after the
damaged replacement portrait of Catherine had been removed.
Steven takes her hand in his and holds it. Steven and
Betty harken back to the time when they were married in
that very room. Steven says he sat in that chair and made
it his. Steven wraps up Betty in a sheet. Betty says that
there are no ghosts for her. Steven kisses her and leaves.
Scene 5: Jack Chandler barges in to see Leslie Harrington without
being announced. He explains that there was no one in the
outer office. Chandler talks about the dealings in the
back room of the tavern 18 years ago with Leslie and Eddie
Jacks. Chandler reminds Leslie that his name was Jack
Forrest at the time. Leslie says, "Elizabeth Carson was
killed by my wife. My wife is dead. So is Elizabeth
Carson. Don't try bringing either of them back again."
Chandler says, "I get your message, Mr. Harrington."
Leslie says, "Make sure that you do." After some
discussion, Leslie tells Chandler that he may be able to
find him a job at the mill.
Scene 6: Ada and Sandy walk to the back door of the tavern. Sandy
is carrying her two suitcases. They go in and Ada calls it
the "Peyton Place Plaza." Ada ushers her to the room that
used to be Rita's bedroom. Ada advises Sandy to put as
much space between her and Lee as possible. Sandy admits
that she is interested in Rodney Harrington. Lee knocks on
the door and pushes his way in. He is accompanied by two
of the bar regulars. Ada tells him that normally he would
be pointed to the front entrance, but the whole place is
off-limits to him. Sandy says, "I'm not your wife anymore."
Lee tells Sandy that it takes a year to get a divorce. Lee
leaves.
Scene 7: There is a knock on Dr. Rossi's office door. The puppy comes
in followed by Rachel. Rossi is looking in the file cabinet.
Rossi explains that the puppy was the runt of the litter.
Rachel puts the dog on top of the file cabinet. Rachel says
it is wonderful that he has been made head of the hospital.
Rossi corrects her, that it is chief-of-staff. Rachel asks
if that is the reason he came back. He says that is one of
the reasons. [The real life reason for his absence was a brief
minor illness.] Rossi tells her that they need to get their
relationship straight. He is too old for her and he can only
be a friend. He only wants to clear the air. Rachel says
that he stirred up a lot of dust. She leaves.

Rachel shows off her puppy. Chauffeur Thomas gives notice.
WA: Rachel Welles has received a gift from Dr. Michael Rossi, a
puppy. A gift one usually gives to a child. She also
received a lecture from the doctor. A blunt statement
telling her not to misinterpret the gift. The doctor told
her she'd been playing hide-and-seek with her own maturity,
that one minute she was a child, the next, a woman. To
Rachel, the doctor's words were inaccurate. For ever since
she met Dr. Rossi and Rodney Harrington, she has felt like
a woman.

self-assurance, is the basic rule." Peyton says that he
fears Greeks even when they are not bearing gifts. He tells
them that Thomas has given his notice. He is getting married
in two weeks. [Reviewer's comment: The writers seemed to
think that when a man marries, he should quit his job. The
logic of thist escapes me.] Peyton asks Steven to go to the
Clarion and place a help-wanted ad for a chauffeur. Betty
offers to take care of it, but Peyton says that he has other
plans for her. He says that they are driving to Boston
together. While he is meeting with his lawyers, Wainwright

knows she lied because he saw her. Elliot says he went to
the employment hall by the wharf [Sparhawk Employment] to
interview the men for an article on sea workers and saw
Rachel there on the wharf. She says that he trapped her.
He asks why she is lying. They raise their voices and fuss
at each other. He asks why Chandler moved back in town.

WA: Rachel Welles has left the home of Elliot Carson and his wife
Constance. She has long known that the man who calls himself
her uncle, Jack Chandler, has a connection with the Carsons'
missing daughter Allison. Yet, if she reveals this explosive
information, to anyone, she and the Carsons face the violence
of Jack Chandler. As a result she must go through the motions
of deciding she must leave the Carson house because she's being
interrogated constantly by Elliot Carson.

Peyton's chauffeur. Dr. Rossi calls on Rita.
Intro: Cars driving by the square. Constance pulls up in front of the
Pharmacy in her gold car. Rachel and the puppy are with her.
Written by Ann Marcus and Lionel E. Siegel
Directed by William J. Hole Jr.

Norman and Rita. Constance explains to Norman why Rachel has
come to visit. Rachel and Constance hug and Constance leaves.
Rachel still has her puppy with her.
Scene 2: Rodney is working on a red car as Leslie comes in. Leslie
wants to know why Rodney has moved out of the Peyton house.
Leslie says he heard about it from his ex-wife, Betty. Leslie
says, "I'm proud of you son. I always will be. Now why don't
you go after what you want, so you can be proud of yourself,
too." Leslie leaves.
Scene 3: In Ada Jacks' Tavern, Leslie Harrington calls Ada over to his
table. He asks her about Rita and Norman. He gives Ada $50.00
to buy something nice for Rita to wear. He tells her he gave
Chandler a job at the mill. She knows Jack Chandler is Jack
Forrest. Ada says, "Come off it Leslie. You know Jack
Chandler. Don't give me that. Why did you hire him, Les?
You've been laying guys off at the mill for the past year."
He avoids answering and leaves.
Scene 4: At the Colonial Post Inn bar, Chandler is talking with Frank,
the bartender. Lee comes in and sits down by Chandler. The
bartender is rude. He says to Lee, "You must be lost." Lee
shows him some money. The bartender brings his drink and gives
him five minutes to drink his drink and leave. Lee shows
Chandler his manicured fingernails. Lee has cleaned himself up
and is wearing a suit. He tells Chandler he is going to get a
job as Martin Peyton's chauffeur. Lee talks with Chandler and
makes a $5.00 bet about getting the job. Chandler tells Lee to
leave the money at the boarding house. Lee leaves. Harrington
comes in and speaks to Frank, calling him by name. Leslie and
Chandler glare at each other and Lee leaves.
MEL: [One reason why Lee is confident that he would be hired is
because Peyton congratulated him when the murder charges
against him in the case of Ann Howard were dropped. It always
seems strange that Peyton did this, because he couldn't forsee
Thomas' getting married and resigning his chauffeur position
and Lee applying for it. In a sense, the congratulations were
really for Steven Cord and his legal abilities. Some things
just seem to work out for the better.]
Scene 5: Steven and Betty are talking in their bedroom in the Peyton
house. Betty tells Steven that he is upset about the Boston
trip. Steven is annoyed that Peyton had to show her the house
where Steven grew up. Betty says, "I am your wife." Steven
was never proud of being the child of a domestic. Mary comes
to their door and speaks to Betty. Mr. Peyton wants them to
join him for coffee. The door chimes ring.
Scene 6: Mary goes to the door and admits Lee Webber. Steven comes down
the stairs and starts to throw Lee out. Peyton shows up in his
wheelchair and tells Steven to let Webber in. Peyton and Lee
Webber talk. Lee applies for the job as chauffeur. Peyton
talks with Lee Webber. They leave for a demonstration drive in
the limousine.
