ACT THREE


INT. LAW OFFICE - CONFERENCE ROOM - MORNING

Puzzled, Spencer's agent TODD looks from Spencer to Olivia.

TODD

Wait... You two know each other.

SPENCER

(mumbles)

Unfortunately.

TODD

(off Olivia's nod)

Well, since you two have history, this should work out perfectly.

OLIVIA

Yes, except all of our history isn't good.

SPENCER

You can say that again.

Olivia rolls her eyes.

TODD

Is anyone's? Listen, Spencer fired his legal team because they failed to do their due diligence and left a lot of money on the table.

(a beat)

You come highly recommended. And as long as there's no conflict of interest there shouldn't be any issues. Sure we can all remain professional. Right?

OLIVIA

Of course, I can... But, Spencer may not--

SPENCER

Ya saying, I can't be professional?

OLIVIA

If you'd let me finish. I meant you may not think it's a good idea given the way we left things.

(off Spencer's scowl)

The way I left things.

SPENCER

I don't think much of you at all, Olivia... Past is the past. If you can remain professional so can I.

Olivia shoots daggers at Spencer. You can cut the tension with a knife, chile. Todd's eyes jump from Spencer to Olivia.

TODD

(clears throat)

Well, I guess that's settled then.

(looks at phone)

Hate to cut the meeting short but I gotta deal with a family emergency.

SPENCER

Okay, I'll walk down with you.

Spencer rushes to the door.

OLIVIA

(fuming)

Actually, Mr. James...  A word, please.

Spencer turns around with a smirk. Todd shakes Olivia's hand.

TODD

Miss Baker, it's been a pleasure. I look forward to working with you.

(to Spencer)

Spence, we'll talk later this week.

Olivia sees Todd to the DOOR. A beat. She SLAMS it.

 She turns on her heel and reduces the space between her and Spencer.

OLIVIA

Just what the hell are you doing?

SPENCER

(acts oblivious)
