Todd & Blair [2002, Part 4]

Blair: (to Nora) I can only think how my life might be different if the circumstances had been different with Todd, if Todd had been different.


Blair: Mama, I told you about my plans that I had for Dr. Troy, remember?
Addie: Yes, I remember. You're using him so that you can forget how much you really love Todd.


Blair: I've just got to get Troy away from Nora and back with Sam where she belongs.
Addie: There must be some other way to make you forget about Todd.
Blair: This isn't about me forgetting about Todd, Mama. I don't even know if I could.


Nora: No, this -- this is all about you and Todd.
Blair: You know what, don't even say his name.
Nora: He's gone, Blair, okay? It's over.
Blair: Don't you think I know that? And I'll tell you what -- I'm glad about it, too!
Nora: Well, then stop messing around in other people's lives to avoid looking at the hole in your own.
Blair: Well, that's not the truth, Nora, and you know it!
Nora: Blair, Todd's gone. He's gone. Deal with it.


Sam: I have moved on, Blair. And that's precisely what you should do -- move on. Move on from Todd.
Blair: Come on, this isn't about Todd. This is about me.
Sam: No, of course it's about Todd, Blair. God, you got to move on.


Todd: If this is about Blair, forget it. She was one huge mistake from the beginning. That woman is totally dense. She -- she didn't even begin to understand me. No, if she did, you know, she would have forgiven me. You know, Blair -- she -- she's -- I -- I don't -- I don't even want to talk about Blair anymore.
Tea: I don't want to talk about Blair, either.
Todd: I mean, you saw the picture, right? You saw what I did.
Tea: Yeah, you tore it.
Todd: Yeah, I tore it. I tore the whole thing up, right? I ripped her up and I threw her the hell away because I'm done with her.


Blair: In fact, my whole life has been one big mistake after big mistake ever since --
Chad: Since what?
Blair: Since Todd.


Chad: If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here. Just for talk, okay? Honest. You must have talked about things with your husband.
Blair: Yeah, but obviously not enough.


Addie: You love Todd.
Blair: Yeah, and I pity the next woman who makes that same mistake.


Chad: (to Blair) You tried to forget Mr. Manning once before with me, and it wasn't exactly a smart move for either one of us.


Chad: (about Todd) I met him once. He wasn't exactly the friendliest guy in town.
Blair: Yeah. He had his moments.


Todd: I was wondering, I was hoping that, you know, if we get out -- okay, when we get out of here and get back that, you know, you might maybe try and make it so that I could get my kids back?
Tea: Of course I'll do that for you, but -- that's not what -- what this is about, is it?
Todd: This is about you and me, Tea. This isn't about me getting my kids back.
Tea: Are you sure?
Todd: Yeah, no, look, if it were that simple, hey, I would just give you another $5 million and watch you fall through another window.
Tea: Oh, uh-uh, ha, ha.
Todd: You really made Blair look like a psycho, didn't you?
Tea: The plan was to make her look like an unfit mother.
Todd: Yeah, well, you did that. Bet you hadn't planned on going through -- getting tossed out of window, though, did you?
Tea: No, I hadn't planned on being tossed out a window, Todd.
Todd: So, you know, maybe you could do something like that again.
Tea: I'll pass on the full-body cast, but I'm sure I can figure something out so that you can spend time with your children.
Todd: Are you going to stick it to Blair this time?
Tea: Todd, I'm asking you, is that why you're doing this? Are you using me to get back at Blair?


Todd: Why are we talking about Blair? Look, this is about you and me. We're stuck here and we're on an island, we're together, you and me, Tea. That's what this is about.
Tea: Well, you're the one who keeps bringing her up.
Todd: Yeah, because she took my kids away from me. Look, I don't care about Blair.
Tea: So why are you still wearing her ring?


Todd: Look, I don't even want to think about Blair.
Tea: Why do I think the gentleman doth protest too much?
Todd: Yeah, well, me don't care what thou doth think.


[Sam approaches Blair at Rodi's]
Sam: Excuse me. Is somebody sitting here?
Blair: Why'd you say that?
Sam: Why?
Blair: Did -- did he tell you that? Did he tell you that he said that to me?
Sam: Are we talking about Todd?
Blair: Yes, of course we're talking about Todd. Did he tell you that he said those words to me?
Sam: Blair, tell you what?
Blair: Sam, Todd said those exact words the first time that I met him, right here, right here at this bar. He said, "Excuse me. Is somebody sitting there?" He said it right here!


Sam: You want to talk about it?
Blair: Uh-uh. Talk about what?
Sam: About how you first met Todd.
Blair: Well, obviously, I was doing something really rotten in my life and God decided to punish me.


Blair: It was a lovely night. I was wearing a beautiful gold necklace, and Todd was wearing a lovely ankle bracelet -- a security tracking device, Sam.
Sam: You're kidding.
Blair: No.
Sam: Todd was already in trouble when you met him?
Blair: When was Todd not in trouble?


Sam: So you played Todd for all the millions he was worth.
Blair: Yeah. And while I was playing him, he was playing me. But I fell for the worst trick of all. I fell in love with him.


Sam: Todd loved you, too, Blair.
Blair: I hoped he did.
Sam: He did.
Blair: Yeah. I thought that he -- I hoped that he could actually love another person.
Sam: He's capable of love, as hard as that may seem. He doesn't express it very well.
Blair: Oh, or at all. You know what? I take that back, because he does express it with the kids. He loves Jack and Starr. I'll believe that.
Sam: Yeah, he's quite amazing with them.
Blair: And I think they know that. When I would see him with Starr, I could see through all the hurt, the manipulation, and the cruelty down to the wounded little boy inside.
Sam: Yeah, well, the little boy desperate for love.
Blair: I thought that my love could surround him and make him feel safe. I thought my love would change him. What a fool I was.


Blair: (about Todd) He thought that Jack was my ex's son, and I let him believe that.
Sam: Yeah, I never fully understood that.
Blair: I was trying to test Todd's love for me.
Sam: He doesn't do well on tests.
Blair: No. Definitely didn't on that one.


Blair: Todd has changed. He's gotten worse, and you know what I did? I stood right here, right here in this stinking bar, and I sang "Unforgettable" to him. I stood right here. I sang my heart out to him, and all the whole while he held on to that little evil, evil secret of his.
Sam: Hey, easy. Easy.
Blair: You know what? He is forgettable. He's totally forgettable, and who were we talking about? We were talking about Todd Ma-- Todd who? I don't know who he is.


Blair: (about Todd) I already told you that I don't care about him, I don't feel anything for him. I do not care! I don't care if he's off with that stupid Tea Delgado bimbo or he's alone. I don't care if he's healthy. I don't care if he's dying somewhere of a painful disease. I don't care if he's lying on a beach somewhere just living the high life or he's rotting somewhere in some cellar! I don't care. Does that answer your question?
Sam: Yes, it does. You're still in love with him.


Blair: (to Sam) I don't want to be fair! When was Todd ever, ever fair with me? After he got custody of Starr, I never stopped looking for her. Not once. Even though he hired that three-headed Tea Delgado dog to guard his door, pretending to be Starr's mother -- as if she actually could.


Blair: (to Jack) You don't miss Daddy, do you? No. You can't. You look so much like your daddy, Jack. You look so much like your daddy.


Tea: Todd, I would take the risk and go with you anywhere if I knew that when we got back we'd be together.
Todd: We would be together. Why wouldn't we?
Tea: Because you're in love with Blair.


Blair: (to Jack) Oh, there is so much of your daddy in you. Well, you know what? You're not going to be like him. No, you're not, because I'm going to give you all the love that your daddy never had when he was as little as you. Yes, I am. No, you're not going to be anything like your daddy. And you know what? Let me take that. You know what? Whoo! You're going to love me and Starr just like we love you, and you're not going to hurt us, you're not going to leave us, you're not going to disappear. No, no, you're not. Come here. Oopsy! You come here, come here to your mommy. Oh, yes, big boy. I love you so much. I love you so much, Jack. You know what? I think maybe it's a good thing that you're not going to get to know your daddy or to love him like Starr and me, because that way he'll never be able to hurt you. He'll never hurt you like Starr and me. No, I'm never going to let him hurt you because I'm never going to let you love him. I'm never going to let you love your daddy. Because no matter how much it hurts, once you love Todd Manning, you can't stop. Oh, I know, Jack, because I tried, and I can't. Oh, God help me. God help me, I still love Todd Manning.


Tea: Todd, you're getting back on that raft to go home to be with your kids and also to be with Blair, because you still love her. Say it, Todd.
Todd: You're right. I do. Oh, I still do. I love Blair.


Blair: (to Sam) I think once you've fallen under Todd Manning's spell, no one can help.


Blair: I love Todd with all of my heart and all of my soul, Sam. Completely out of control with no boundaries.


Todd: Delgado, I've been through a lot worse than being stuck on a raft in the middle of the ocean. I can't stay. I have to try. I have to be with my family.


Sam: (about Todd) And what if he swears he's changed?
Blair: Of course he's going to swear he's changed. Of all the lies Todd has told, that's the one he tells the most.


[Tea gives Todd the picture of Blair back]
Todd: I needed this.
Tea: Keep it in a safe place.
Todd: Close to my heart.
