Christy tells Frankie that Frankie is overreacting; Christy is not mad at her. She knew that Frankie would eventually find out about Douglas. Frankie says she wasn't trying to horn in where she wasn't wanted, she was just curious. When Christy presses, Frankie admits she was horning in a little bit. Christy insists again that she's not mad at Frankie. She just didn't tell her sooner because of Frankie and Cass starting to plan their wedding. Christy didn't want to be a downer. Frankie says Christy could never be a downer. Christy says she and Douglas don't want any of their friends to be uncomfortable about Douglas's illness. Frankie reminds Christy of their oath that they would share everything, no matter what, and not keep secrets. Has Christy outgrown this kind of friendship? Christy says she hasn't, and the friends hug. Meanwhile, Cass compliments Douglas on his library and says that "The Merchant of Venice" is one of his favorites. Douglas says that Cass is a gentleman and a scholar, which makes Frankie a very lucky lady. Frankie returns to the living room, with Christy close behind, and excitedly asks if she's lucky because she's going back to Venice, and hurries to Cass's side. Cass quips that he's still receiving thank-you notes from their Bank Card president, and he and Frankie tell Douglas and Christy about their wonderful, magical trip to Venice earlier this year. Cass reminds Frankie that wild horses had to drag her there, and Frankie says that it's a long story, but yes, Cass did have to kidnap her, although it did turn out perfectly in the end. Douglas says he and Christy got to Baden-Baden a few years ago, but Douglas has always wanted to show Christy Italy. Christy says next year after Douglas finishes his book, they'll have plenty of time for travel. Cass and Frankie touch foreheads and hands after they observe Douglas kiss Christy's hand, and Frankie leans her head against Cass's.
Cass remarks that Frankie and Douglas are two peas in a pod. Christy tells Cass that he is a rakish scholar, and Frankie has always been a sucker for the scholarly type. Frankie tells Douglas how Christy gave her a life loan one Christmas so she could get out of Oklahoma, and refused to let Frankie pay it back until she had gotten her life together, and Frankie used the money to leave Oklahoma and get her P.I. license. Douglas asks when Christy did this, and Frankie tells him it was longer ago than she cares to remember, but it was years ago when she was doing well in theatre, or maybe in commercials. Frankie goes to help Christy with the dessert and tells her that Douglas is an absolute dream. Christy says that a lot of people think when a younger woman marries an older man, they assume the reason is money. Frankie insists she doesn't think that. Christy says that she and Douglas are comfortable, and that the minute she met Douglas, every other man she had dated faded away. Frankie and Christy serve dessert and tea and Douglas asks when Cass and Frankie's wedding is going to be. Frankie says it will be soon. Christy says that Frankie had better get serious about choosing a date or everything will be booked. Douglas is surprised to learn how involved in Cass and Frankie's wedding planning Christy is. They discuss wedding plans for Cass and Frankie, and then Christy tells Cass and Frankie a little about her and Douglas's wedding at the New York Botanical Garden. Douglas interrupts the conversation to ask Christy for his pills and some water. She hurries to get them, and Frankie and Cass look at Douglas anxiously as Frankie asks if there's anything they can do. Douglas wipes his brow with his handkerchief and tells them that he just needs his medicine. Thanks to Janie for the scenes.
