>> [ Like sands through the hourglass, so are the "Days of our Lives." "Days of our Lives," a new dramatic series starring MacDonald Carey. ]

>>> Julie: But that's the point! Carol and Diane both blamed it on me, and they got to go home, no questions asked!

>>> Mickey: If you'd just calm down, Julie, maybe we can get you home, too.

>>> Julie: You think I took that stole, don't you, Uncle Mickey?

>>> Tom: Look, Julie, nobody's condemning you. We want to help.

>>> Julie: They let Carol and Diane go home just like that, but not me. Why?

>>> Tom: We're trying to locate your parents. Once we do --

>>> Julie: I don't care about them, Grandpa! That's why I called you! I don't see why you keep trying to call them on the phone. They're never there, I told you that! I tried to tell him that, too, but he doesn't believe anything I say!

>>> Officer Mike: That's the way it's been ever since we picked her up.

>>> Mickey: Let me see that report again, will you, Mike?

>>> Tom: The detective's just trying to do his job. He claims that he saw you take that fur piece. Your friends back him up.

>>> Mickey: And so does the clerk.

>>> Tom: Julie, when you were very young, maybe 4, maybe 5 years old, we went to Meadowlake Park once, just you and me. You got lost. You remember? You ran around that park screaming for your grandpa. That's all you could do was scream. You couldn't remember your name, your grandpa's name, or anything else. All you could do was yell and cry and kick up the dirt. Do you remember why?

>>> Julie: I guess I was scared.

>>> Tom: Uh-huh. You know, you've been doing that ever since, Julie.

>>> Julie: What, getting lost?

>>> Tom: No. No, being frightened and running off in 10 directions at once. That's what you did then and that's what you're doing now, Julie.

>>> Julie: I'm not frightened, I'm mad! Everybody's trying to blame me for this. Mom and Dad will, too, you'll see!

>>> Tom: All right, all right. Just for the sake of argument, let's say you're not frightened, you're mad, ok? Now, the point that I'm trying to make is that you're spreading your anger around in 10 directions at once. You're fighting the whole world, even those that love you. Julie, all we're trying to do is help you. Don't you understand that?

>>> Julie: Oh, wait till you hear from my mother and father. You'll see. You'll see. They'll list all the trouble I've been. They'll even make up a few things to make themselves sound good.

>>> Tom: Well, there has been trouble before, hasn't there? Do you expect your mother and father to tell the police that you're a model young lady, that you couldn't possibly be the ringleader because you're a follower, that there's never been any trouble before, not a bit of it? No. No, Julie, that's not so. We've got a problem that has to be solved by all of us together. But you must let Mickey and me help solve it, and your mother and father, too. But nothing is going to be solved unless you stay "cool." Isn't that the word for it?

>>> Mickey: That's right, Julie, don't blow your cool. Oh, come on now, in my circles, I'm considered very far from square.

>>> Tom: I think I'll try and reach Ben and Addie. They should be home by now.

>>> Julie: And if they're not?

>>> Tom: Then perhaps we can try and make other arrangements.

>>> Julie: Thanks, Grandpa.

>>> Tom: Yes, Mrs. Chamberlain, it's Dr. Horton again. Have you heard from Mr. and Mrs. Olson yet? Oh. Just a moment. They won't be home for quite a while. Considering the time now --

>>> Mickey: Mike, how about it? We'll take Julie with us, and then as soon as her parents can be located, why, she'll be returned to their custody.

>>> Officer Mike: Well, I'll check with the captain. I think Dr. Horton's reliable.

>>> Mickey: Good.

>>> Tom: Mrs. Chamberlain? When my daughter gets there, have her call me at home. Yes, thank you very much. No, there's no need to worry. Julie's with me. Yes.

>>> Mickey: Feeling better, Julie?

>>> Julie: Well, just like Grandpa says, there's no need to worry, I'm with him.

>>> Mickey: Well, that's just for right now. I think you'd better understand that.

>>> Officer Mike: I believe it will be all right. The captain would like to see you.

>>> Tom: Me?

>>> Officer Mike: Yes.

>> [ Door closes ]

>>> Julie: Now what?

>>> Mickey: Well, now your grandfather will vouch for the fact that you'll be delivered to your parents and you'll be released.

>>> Julie: "Delivered." Just like a package from the store all tied up in a ribbon. And then they'll unpack me and --

>>> Mickey: You feel pretty sorry for yourself, don't you?

>>> Julie: Oh, come on, Uncle Mickey, I know darn well what you think of my father.

>>> Mickey: Well, nevertheless, he is your father. Now, instead of feeling so sorry for yourself, maybe you'd better start thinking about how your actions affect your mother and father, and us, too.

>>> Julie: Oh, I know, I'm such an inconvenience.

>>> Mickey: Young lady, you had better start thinking about the consequences of this action and all the other actions.

>>> Julie: I was never arrested before.

>>> Mickey: Oh, you mean that you were never caught before. They have a record on you here, Julie. You were suspected of previous shoplifting excursions. The juvenile officers have questioned you on one, two, three -- three previous occasions. That's right, three previous occasions. Once at school when a locker caught on fire, once at a party --

>>> Julie: I wasn't responsible for those things and they know it!

>>> Mickey: "Insufficient evidence to draw an official petition against a minor." That's what it says here. But, Julie, now they have the evidence, and you had better know it's going to be a tough road ahead.

>>> Julie: What do you mean?

>>> Mickey: The police will petition to have you made a ward.

>>> Julie: No.

>>> Mickey: It means either 24-hour supervision or supervised probation.

>>> Julie: Like -- like reform school?

>>> Mickey: Well, this is your first official arrest, so we can probably get off with a probationary sentence. But you were caught with that fur piece.

>>> Julie: I didn't steal it! I told you, I was just trying it on to see what it looked like.

>>> Mickey: And it just fell conveniently into your bag. Come on, Julie, if you want me to help you, you have to be honest with me. Honest.

>>> Julie: Well, I guess we can go home now.

>>> Officer Mike: I think that about does it, all right. If The Olsons call, I'll fill them in.

>>> Tom: Thanks, I'll take her on home.

>>> Officer Mike: And remember, Dr. Horton, that girl must be turned over to the custody of her parents as soon as possible. Now, you've got the forms there.

>>> Mickey: Oh, those are the papers Ben and Addie sign.

>>> Officer Mike: Fine.

>>> Mickey: Mike, would it be ok if I had them sign them tonight, then bring them in tomorrow morning?

>>> Officer Mike: That'll be all right.

>>> Officer Mike: I'll see you later, young lady.

>>> Julie: I hope not.

>>> Officer Mike: Take a word of advice from me -- you listen to the doctor and the counselor there. Now, you can lip off to me, but a judge won't like it at all. Just remember that.

>>> Tom: All right, sweetheart, we can go home. I hope your mother didn't wait up.

>>> Mickey: Dad, why don't you take Julie on up to the house. I think I'd better try to track down Addie and her social husband.

>>> Tom: Where will you look?

>>> Mickey: I'll find them if I have to walk in on every fashionable supper party in Salem.

>>> Julie: I hope you don't find them.

>>> Tom: What?

>>> Julie: Not now, not ever!

>>> Marie: [ Laughing ]

>>> Tony: What's the matter?

>>> Marie: I'm sorry, but I can't get the picture out of my mind. It's very funny.

>>> Tony: What's so funny?

>>> Marie: Me skating up and down the Charles River. I never graduated beyond double runners.

>>> Tony: Well, neither did I. Oh, anyway, we're in luck. Jim wrote about the thruway they have along the Charles River, so we don't have to skate to class, we can always take a bus.

>>> Marie: You mean there's been progress in Boston?

>>> Tony: Oh, dear heart, once we arrive there, Boston will really have come of age.

>>> Marie: I'll get you some matches.

>>> Tony: Thank you. Ah. Ah.

>>> Marie: Tony, is something the matter?

>>> Tony: Oh. Oh, I just -- I just got kind of dizzy for a minute. Oh, it's nothing, Marie, really. Come on, we were talking about -- we were talking about Boston, right?

>>> Marie: Right. Hey --

>>> Tony: Hmm?

>>> Marie: I can see the picture now. "Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Merritt have taken up residence in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The city has awaited their arrival with bated breath. The mayor himself is quoted as having said --"

>>> Tony: "'I love you.'"

>>> Marie: "The mayor himself is quoted as having said, 'I love you.'"

>>> Craig: Ahem. Ahem.

>>> Tony: There are spies about. Batten down the hatches and secure the bilge, our houseboat is under surveillance.

>>> Marie: It's all right, Captain, it's only your father.

>>> Tony: Aye, but we trust no one. This is war! Down! Down, I say! Down!

>>> Craig: Ahem.

>>> Tony: Hey, what's the matter, Dad? You ok?

>>> Craig: I, uh --

>>> Tony: Ow!

>>> Craig: Ah, fooled you, didn't I?

>>> Tony: Mercy, mercy, mercy!

>>> Marie: Unhand this man, for he is my betrothed!

>>> Tony: Come on. Ow.

>>> Craig: Enough of that. So how's my favorite daughter-to-be?

>>> Marie: And my favorite father-in-law-to-be?

>>> Craig: Well, I'm pretty good, considering my ancient age.

>>> Tony: "Ancient age," my foot. Hey, listen, let me warn you about these guys. Never tangle with an airline pilot. These guys keep in shape, huh?

>>> Craig: Well, Tony, we keep in shape because we keep sane hours.

>>> Tony: Uh-huh.

>>> Craig: Do you realize what time it is?

>>> Tony: Hey, come on, you're putting me on.

>>> Craig: Well, no, it is after midnight. Don't you have class in the morning, Marie?

>>> Marie: Mm-hmm, an 8:00 in the BioMed building, all the way across the campus. Want to make something out of it?

>>> Craig: All right, you two. I just came off a flight, went home, found an absent son, and thought I'd come over and say hello.

>>> Tony: Hello.

>>> Craig: What, am I interrupting something?

>>> Tony: Oh, no, no, no. I only wanted to spend a few hours with one of the most beautiful, one of the most charming, delectable, delicious creatures in the world. But I really don't mind the interruption. No, really, I don't, uh-uh.

>>> Craig: Really, I was just out for a walk and I --

>>> Marie: He was only kidding.

>>> Craig: Well, you are the most delightful, gracious -- what was the rest of that, Tony?

>>> Tony: Uh, delectable, most beautiful creature in the world.

>>> Marie: Hey, thanks for the rave review. It is getting late.

>>> Tony: Hey, come on. Now look what you did.

>>> Marie: No, really, I didn't realize what time it was.

>>> Tony: Mm-hmm.

>>> Marie: I hope Mom's not in bed.

>>> Craig: Doc Horton out? Oh, he keeps running along on all cylinders, doesn't he? Quite a -- quite a man, your dad.

>>> Marie: No argument there.

>>> Craig: And you know something? I think your brother, Bill, is going to be just as good a doctor. Is he coming to the wedding?

>>> Marie: Unfortunately, no. He's up to his ears in case histories.

>>> Tony: Yeah, man, that last year of med school is a real back-buster, Dad.

>>> Craig: This will be a tough year for you, too, Tony.

>>> Tony: Well, the one difference between Bill and I, at least I'll have my frau to smooth my wrinkled brow. Hey, that's not a bad line, is it, huh?

>>> Marie: Very poetic, Mr. Merritt.

>>> Craig: Come on, Tony, kiss the lady good night.

>>> Tony: Well, that's one challenge I think I'm up to. Bye, lovely.

>>> Marie: Good night, Tony.

>>> Craig: Goodbye, Marie.

>>> Marie: Oh, Tony --

>>> Tony: Hmm?

>>> Marie: About tomorrow -- what time should I pick you up? I've got the car.

>>> Craig: No need for you to drive. I'm off till midnight. I'll pick you up on the way to the airport.

>>> Marie: Fine. About 6:00?

>>> Tony: Fine.

>>> Marie: I'll be ready. Good night, gentlemen.

>>> Craig: Good night.

>> [Car approaches]

>>> Marie: Dad?

>>> Tom: Hi, sweetie. I've got a passenger.

>>> Julie: Hi, Aunt Marie.

>>> Marie: Julie, is that you?

>>> Julie: None other.

>>> Tom: Come on, Julie.

>>> Marie: It's after midnight. How come Julie's --

>>> Tom: Come on inside. I'll explain later. Is Mother awake?

>>> Marie: No, I don't think so.

>>> Tom: Good. Come on, Julie.

>>> Marie: What happened?

>>> Julie: I'm under arrest.

>>> Marie: What did you say?

>>> Julie: I'm under arrest.

>>> Tom: Let's not get overdramatic, Julie.

>>> Julie: Well, it's true.

>>> Marie: Dad, what happened?

>>> Tom: Go on, Julie.

>>> Julie: Well -- well, there was a little problem at Bartlett's Department Store tonight. It happened this evening.

>>> Marie: What happened?

>>> Tom: Go on.

>>> Julie: Well, I was there with Carol and Diane, and this creepy detective came along and --

>>> Tom: And found a fur piece in your bag.

>>> Julie: Yes.

>>> Marie: Oh, Julie, did you steal it? Did you, Julie?

>>> Julie: Well -- well, I was just trying it on. Maybe it just fell into my bag.

>>> Tom: Mm-hmm. Marie, were there any phone calls?

>>> Marie: No. It fell into your bag?

>>> Julie: You, too?

>>> Tom: I think we'd better have a little chat, Julie.

>>> Marie: Oh, Dad, it's awfully late. Couldn't she go upstairs and lie down? Is she going to stay here?

>>> Tom: Mickey's trying to find Ben and Addie at some party someplace. We can't locate them. Julie's going to stay here till we find them.

>>> Julie: May I go upstairs and lie down?

>>> Tom: Well, there isn't much we can do until they get here.

>>> Marie: She seems frightened, Dad.

>>> Tom: She denies it, says she's mad.

>>> Marie: At who?

>>> Tom: Everyone, I suppose.

>>> Marie: Maybe I can talk to her.

>>> Tom: You can try.

>>> Marie: Hi.

>>> Julie: Hi. What a night. I'm tired.

>>> Marie: And upset?

>>> Julie: Who cares?

>>> Marie: We all care, Julie.

>>> Julie: Oh, wait till Mom and Dad get here. Boy, they'll make such a scene.

>>> Marie: Oh, honey, I'm sorry. I really am. This fur piece -- what was it?

>>> Julie: A Martin stole.

>>> Marie: They found it in your bag?

>>> Julie: Oh, Aunt Marie, Uncle Mickey was there, too, and he says that I'll have to go to court and --

>>> Marie: Oh --

>>> Julie: And that they might even send me to reform school.

>>> Marie: Oh, honey, did Uncle Mickey tell you that? I don't think they're going to send you away. Hey, you want to see the wedding dress?

>>> Julie: Is it finished?

>>> Marie: Oh, not by a long shot, but you can see what it's going to look like. We've still got yards to alter around the skirt. Here. Here it is. It's still pinned. See?

>>> Julie: Oh, Aunt Marie, it's dreamy.

>> [Knock on door]

>>> Tom: Can I come in? Mickey just called. He found Ben and Addie. They'll be here right away.

>>> Tom: They were at The Palmers' luau.

>>> Julie: Are they sober?

>>> Marie: Julie.

>>> Tom: I was hoping your Aunt Marie would've gotten you into a better mood.

>>> Julie: Grandpa, do I have to see them tonight?

>>> Tom: Those are the orders from the police, Julie. There's nothing we can do about it.

>>> Julie: Well, I don't want to see them. I won't!

>>> Marie: Julie, they're your parents. They're going to be worried about this.

>>> Julie: Oh, not about me. You can bet on it. The only thing they're worried about is this getting spread around Salem. The only thing they're worried about really is their reputation.

>>> Tom: Still running around in 10 directions at once, huh, Julie?

>>> Julie: I know how I feel.

>>> Tom: Do you, Julie? Do you know how I feel and how your Aunt Marie feels?

>>> Julie: Well --

>>> Tom: Or haven't you taken the time to consider that?

>>> Julie: I suppose you wish it hadn't happened.

>>> Tom: Is that all?

>>> Julie: I suppose you feel badly.

>>> Marie: Your grandfather means about you, Julie. What he's trying to tell you -- what I'm trying to tell you, too, is -- is that we all care a great deal about what happens to you.

>>> Tom: And your mother and father feel the same way.

>>> Julie: I doubt that.

>>> Marie: Do you doubt us?

>>> Julie: No. That's why I want to stay here a bit longer. This is where the people live that I love, here in this house.

>>> Tom: Marie, you'd better wait downstairs.

>>> Marie: Will you come down, too?

>>> Tom: No, I'll let Mickey handle Ben and Addie. I'm very tired. I'll have a talk with Julie and then go to bed. That place is about an hour from here. It's out by Horton Pond.

>>> Marie: Yes, I know.

>>> Tom: I've got an appointment at 7:00. What about you? Don't you have an early morning class?

>>> Marie: Mm-hmm, but I think I'll wait up.

>>> Tom: Well, I don't think you'd better.

>>> Marie: I want to, Dad.

>> [ Door closes ]

>>> Tom: Why don't you get some sleep, stretch out?

>>> Julie: I'm not tired.

>>> Tom: Oh, come on. Just lie down for a minute. Come on, I'll cover you up. That's it. Both pillows -- you still use two pillows?

>>> Julie: You remembered.

>>> Tom: But now I expect you to be grown-up enough, really grown-up enough to face your parents. But if you insist on denying everything, if you start shouting at your mother and father and if you keep on blaming them for your difficulties --

>>> Julie: Grandpa, what do you want me to do, say I'm sorry, beg for forgiveness? Wouldn't that be lovely.

>>> Tom: Just be quiet, answer their questions, and control your temper.

>>> Julie: Who guarantees my father controls his?

>>> Tom: I just want you to control yours. Remember that little girl that was lost and who stayed lost because she was too frightened to use her common sense? And you are frightened, aren't you, Julie?

>>> Julie: Oh, Grandpa, you're right, I am scared.
