Cass and Frankie, Douglas and Christy 1993--Christy Makes Douglas Lie to Frankie for Her

Frankie calls Christy at home, but she refuses to come to the phone and tells Douglas to tell Frankie that she has gone to the hospital to pick up his medication, so he does. Frankie asks Douglas to tell Christy that she called when Christy gets back. Frankie then tells Cass that Christy doesn't want to talk to her, and she doesn't believe that Christy is really at the hospital like Douglas said.

At their house, Douglas stops Christy from going to the hospital by asking her why she had him lie to Mary Frances. Christy finally tells Douglas about the night before at TOPS, her outburst after Felicia contradicted her wedding plans for Frankie and Cass with Felicia's own ideas. Christy says that Felicia caught her at the wrong time and she lost it and had a little blowup. Douglas says that maybe the problem is that Christy has been trying to create the perfect wedding for Frankie and Cass. Christy retorts that Frankie deserves a perfect wedding, everything the way it should be.

Then comes the eye opener: Douglas says that Christy wants to give Frankie the wedding that Christy wanted and didn't get to have. Douglas would have done anything to give Christy the wedding of her dreams. Douglas asks if Christy has told Frankie what their wedding was really like, and Christy says no, she hasn't. Douglas asks why Christy is lying to Frankie; she can be trusted with the truth because she is Christy's friend. (I don't know about the rest of you, but now I'm REALLY wondering what Christy and Douglas's wedding was like, since it obviously wasn't the botanical gardens, dress by a Broadway designer, Douglas in tails affair that Christy has been trumpeting it as all this time.) Christy says that Frankie seems to be Douglas's friend now as much as she is Christy's. Douglas tells Christy he will not steal Frankie away from Christy. Douglas tells Christy that he asked Frankie to continue to be a wonderful friend to Christy after Douglas is gone. Christy says that won't be for a long time yet. Douglas assures Christy that Frankie promised that she would stand by Christy after Douglas is gone, saying that it is a given that she'll be there for Christy. Christy asks Douglas if Douglas is sure he and Frankie only talked about the future. Douglas assures Christy that the future was the only thing he and Frankie talked about. That begs the question, what, exactly, is it about her past, besides the truth about her wedding to Douglas, that Christy doesn't want Frankie to know? Thanks to Janie for the scenes.
