Eye Candy! • The Sendoff, Part 3

"Yeah, but we can help, Oscar."

"You've already helped as much as you can. I set a meeting for me to go down there. If I show up with anyone else, it'll look hostile."
"True, but..."

"But nothing. I already have a plan. How do you know about this, anyway?"
"Stella called me. She's worried about you."

"Good old Stella. She had no idea Dan Cole even knew this guy El Tiburon. Was totally floored when I popped out that they'd gone to college together."
"I know. She and Cole had a big fight about it and she moved out because of that."

"Wow. That's a new piece of information."
"Can I get you something, honey?"

"Rachel, meet Diana, my favorite bartender. Diana, meet Rachel, my business partner."
"Charmed," said Rachel.

"Likewise!"

"I'll have a glass of Chardonnay."

"Wow, take it easy, Rachel."
"You're right. I should be guzzling bourbon like you are. I'm about to lose my best friend, after all."

"No you aren't. Stop trying to talk me out of this, will you?"
"OK, OK."

"It's like none of you have faith in me."

Just then...
"OK, are you going to Mexico to try to get Amber back?"

"Hi Katie. How are you?"
"Just answer the question. Because I think it's a really bad idea, and so does Craig."

"He's going," said Rachel, "and he's not listening to any of us."

"Hey Diana," I said, "these women don't want me to make the trip. What do you think?"
"Do you love her?" she asked. "I mean, really love her?"

"Of course I do."
"Then go. Definitely, go."

"Thank you, Diana. Another one for me, and a round for my friends, please."
