KING'S BAY METROPOLITAN HOTEL

A chill surges through the room. Sarah can see it shooting through both Brent and Molly, shocking them into silence. She feels it herself, a current of disbelief sweeping over her. For more than three years, she's kept that to herself. She's felt it clawing at her mind every time she even thought of Molly or Brent, felt it scratching to get out. And now it is.

"Betcha didn't see that one coming, did you?" she says finally, a hint of triumphance shining through.

"Sarah--" Molly says, a note of panic sounding prominently in her words. "If only you'd told us that before--we could have explained. It wasn't an ongoing thing. It just happened that night, we just--I'm sorry."

"It's a little late for sorry," Sarah muses as she begins to pace back and forth. "And I don't think you would have told me the truth, even if I had spoken up. Because that would have ruined your little game, Molly. If you'd told the full truth -- that you want Brent, that you've been trying this whole time to take him away from me -- then you never would have been able to have him."

"That's not what I'm doing."

Sarah suddenly stops moving and throws up her arms. "There you go again with the lying! Stop it, already! Just tell me the truth. You want Brent, don't you?" When Molly doesn't respond, Sarah repeats, even more furiously, "Don't you?"

Molly folds her arms in front of her body. Words are twitching on her lips, almost ready to let loose, but they are in conflict and neither set can win out.

"Just admit it already!" Sarah cries. "This is all your fault!"

There is another moment of frozen intensity until Brent cuts in. "No, it's not!"

Sarah turns sharply to him. "Stay out of this!"

"No!" Brent shouts. "I won't! I can't! Because you're wrong -- this isn't Molly's fault!"

"Yes, it is!" Sarah fires.

"No, it's not! Because it's mine! I'm the one who has feelings for her!"
