CUT TO: Cohen back yard - Julie's party is happening and Julie is talking with a group of businessmen, we then see Kirsten walk over to Jimmy who is standing at the bar Kirsten: Jimmy, thank god your here Jimmy: Julie invited me, she knows I...can't turn down free booze (takes drink from bar tender) Kirsten: either can she (looks over) look at her (Jimmy smiles) the giggling an touching... (we see Julie with her hand on a mans shoulder, the man is smiling as is Julie. Julie begins laughing then runs her hand from his shoulder, down past his butt, and pats twice) Kirsten: oh god she just grazed an ass (drinks) Jimmy: oh the not so subtle ass graze, yeah i've ben a victim of it myself (Kirsten looks at him) don't worry about it, she's shmoozing the crowd at a cock tail party Kirsten: (worried) this is our star clientele, dy'know how many years of wooing an cajoling it took to have a meeting with these people Jimmy: this is the woman who came from Riverside to become head Newpsie then landed Newport's biggest tycoon an took over his company, she knows what she's doin (Kirsten smiles and looks back over at Julie, Julie is still laughing and flirting with the men) CUT TO: The Bait shop - we see Summer and Zach sitting together, Summer is looking over at Seth and Lindsay. Summer doesn't look like she's enjoying herself. Seth says something to Lindsay which I think was 'judging, judging, judging Summer: ten bucks says Cohen is bending that poor girls ear about (Marissa looks at her, then drinks her drink) Superman or Batman or something man in a unitard (Zach looks at her, unimpressed) that she doesn't give a crap about, y'know what, I should stop him (Marissa looks at her) for her sake Marissa: (unconvinced) ah-huh, well that sounds like its coming from a really...generous place (Summer gives Marissa a 'what would you know' look) Zach: or we could just put the Cohen obsession on hold and watch the band Summer: (offended) I am not obsessing Zach: the seething, the staring, the analysing of his outfit, that's not obsessing? Summer: what? that shirt totally accentuates his bird arms Marissa: I think this is the part where I go to the bathroom... (Marissa gets up and we then see her making her way through the crowd, she stops and looks over at Ryan and Alex who are standing together. neither looks like they are enjoying themselves, Marissa keeps walking then Ryan looks over towards Seth and Lindsay at the bar. Lindsay looks over towards Ryan, and Alex notices. Ryan gives Lindsay a little nod) Seth: but I will admit that our break up, to the outside observer could seem sad but I don't know for me I feel like its given me this great - gift you know this new era an this whole new situation like her Zach, you an I think It works (Lindsay looks beyond bored, Ryan is still watching them, Alex is watching Ryan watch Lindsay, Ryan looks towards Alex and Alex looks back at the concert) CUT TO: Outside the club - we see Caleb standing at a silver car talking to a red headed lady, a car then pulls up blocking our view of Caleb and the woman, and we see that Sandy is in the car, he looks over towards Caleb and we see him pulling something out of his inside jacket pocket. it's like a thick envelope. Caleb hands it to the woman and she puts it in her bag, she gets into her car and Caleb walks away. Sandy watches the woman drive away, and we see the number plate of her car is 1491 PCE (sound familiar? ) Sandy looks at his watch, we then go to Caleb drinking inside the club.
