Aired February 1988
I wrote a couple of storylines for Beth's Days Page and saved them on my website. They include pictures and details and some quotes, but they're not transcripts. (I don't know why there on this page then..but hey.) There will be a couple of more later. (The Revival and Marina Tuscano).
Steve�s First Scene back after his "death."
In the hospital Jack has just been told he�s dying and there�s nothing they can do for him. An orderly in hospice care comes to his bedside. Jack is delirious and looks up at the orderly. Jack: It�s you. Orderly (putting a paper cup with a straw to Jack�s mouth). Have some water. You�re really dehydrated. Jack: My vision is really screwed up. For a second I thought you were someone I�my�brother. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Talk to me, say something. Say anything. The orderly looks at Jack and we see his face for the first time. It�s Steve! Steve: Come on, just drink. Come on. (Shoving the straw practically in his mouth.) Jack: Steve. Steve. Steve sighs and looks disturbed. Scene fades out. (Destyne grins like a stupid school girl LOL.) Kayla�s First Scene back since 1992The verdict just in that Chelsea Brady is only getting community service for killing Zach Brady in a car accident. Hope and Shawn D are devestated. Caroline gets on the phone and calls someone.
Caroline (on her cell phone at the courthouse talking to herself): Oh, she must be there by now.
All we see now is legs and a torso pick up the phone. (But they are very pretty legs and torso.)
Kayla: Hello?
Caroline: Honey, oh, I�m so glad I finally reached you. Darling, we really need you to come home.
Camera pans out and we See Kayla�s face, she looks distraught.
Kayla: Mom what�s wrong? What happened at the trial?
Caroline: Well, Hope expected Chelsea to do some prison time but the judge let her off she�s just doing community service. And Hope is just furious with your brother Bo.
Kayla: Why?
Caroline: Because he sided with Chelsea. Things have never been worse between your brother and Hope. He really needs you. We hoped you could be here for Zach�s funeral.
Kayla: You know, I wanted to be there, you know that, I just, I um, I was on call and I had a critical patient.
Caroline: Yes, I know. And you saved his life. We�re very proud of you. We�re proud to have a doctor in the family.
Kayla: Well then you understand why I can�t just run home at the drop of a hat.
Caroline: Well yes of course I do. I understand. You couldn�t make it for Frankie and Jennifer�s wedding. But you know the way things are happening now, couldn�t you just find some way to come home?
(Scene break)
Kayla: You know, Mom, I feel awful about what�s going on with Bo and Hope, but honestly, I don�t know what I could do.
Caroline: You could just be here. You and your brother Bo were so close. We miss you.
Kayla: I miss you.
Caroline: Well then, darling, please come home. It�s really critical.
Kayla: You know, I just have so much going on her mom, I�
Caroline: Like what? I mean what�s more important then your family?
Kayla: I, uh, I have family here too.
Caroline: Yes, we miss our granddaughter too.
Kayla: Well, you know Stephanie is involved in a million things right now. You know what it�s like. You know what it was like when I was a kid. I couldn�t possibly uproot her right now.
Caroline: Well, that�s what Kimberly says about Jeannie and Andrew.
Kayla: And besides, I�ve already volunteered to work Africa this summer. Sort of an exchange program for doctors. I, I already contacted Bill Horton�s clinic.
Caroline: Kayla, you can tell me the truth.
Kayla: What?
Caroline: The reason you don�t want to come home. It�s because of Steve isn�t it? You stayed away as long as you could and as far away as you could because Salem has too many sad memories for you.
I�m so depressed after typing this transcript. It�s a sad scene to watch, but when you have to type the whole thing out�uh, boy.
Kayla asked Steve to take her away from Salem. They went to a cabin in the woods.
Kayla is in the bathroom trying to cover the bruises on her neck and shoulder with makeup. She realizes she can�t cover them up.
Steve is in bed waiting for Kayla when she opens the bathroom door and stands at the threshold for a moment.
Kayla: (Standing in the bathroom door) Steve?
Steve: Yeah?
Kayla: Can you turn the light out?
Steve reaches over and turns the lamp off. Kayla walks to the bed and he watches her. She climbs into bed and pulls the cover over her. She nervously makes sure the robe is covering her neck.
Steve: You�re beautiful.
Steve starts kissing her. Kayla tries to kiss him back, but pulls away.
Kayla: I�m sorry, I can�t.
Steve pulls back questionably and looks at her, concerned.
Steve: (Caressing her face) Sweetness, please tell me what�s the matter. Talk to me.
Kayla curls her head into his chest.
Kayla: Just hold me, alright. Just�just hold me tonight. I�I feel safe in your arms.
Steve: Okay, I�ll hold you. (He caresses her hair.)
Kayla: All night? (If Your Heart Comes Out Tonight starts to play in the background.)
Steve: (Still caressing her hair) If that�s what you want.
Kayla: (Silently sobbing) Yeah.
Steve: Oh baby, it�s alright now. You just take it easy. I�ll hold you as long as you want.
Kayla: We�ll talk about it tomorrow, alright.
(Credits roll)
(Next Day)
Steve is laying in bed next to Kayla, caressing her shoulder. Her nightgown slips down over her shoulder and Steve sees the bruises. He looks at them concerned. Kayla wakes up a moment later.
Kayla: Mmm, hi. (She smiles at Steve)
Steve: Kayla what happened to you?
Kayla notices the look on his face. She pulls the nightgown up over her shoulder and looks horrified.
Steve: Baby what happened?
Kayla: (talking fast.) Nothing. I�m cold aren�t you? (She turns onto her side away from Steve)
Steve: Baby, don�t bother to cover them up, I already saw �em. Now what happened? Did somebody try to hurt you?
Kayla: (Her back still to Steve) They�re almost gone.
Steve: Kayla, somebody did this to you and I want to know who.
Kayla: Boy, I�m starving aren�t you? (She starts to get out of bed. Steve pulls her back)
Steve: No. Now last night you said we�d talk in the morning. Now it�s morning, I�m here. Come on baby, we�re not going to make it together if we hold out on each other. Now what happened? (Kayla has a terrified look on her face.) I had a feeling something was wrong Kayla. Now it�s time to tell me what happened, give me a chance to make it right.
Kayla: You can�t.
Steve: Kayla somebody did this to you and I want to know who. Who!
Kayla: Jack. Jack�raped me.
(Steve looks like he just entered a nightmare.)
Steve: Jack raped you? He raped you? When?
Kayla: The night of the election.
Steve shoots up out of bed.
Steve: I�m gunna kill him.
Kayla tries to pull him back.
Kayla: No Steve.
Steve: (Pulling his pants on) Kayla, why didn�t you tell me about this, huh? Why didn�t you tell me? (He leans back onto the bed and looks at her.) Why?
Kayla: I was afraid.
Steve: What were you afraid of? (He kneels on the bed next to her.)
Kayla: Of what you would do to him.
Steve: Oh, baby.
Kayla: Jack was the one who had you beat up. To prove a point to me. To show what would happen if I wasn�t a good wife.
Steve: I thought I was like my old man. Congratulations Billy. Can you tell me about it? I need to hear it. I need to know, Kayla. Can you tell me about it, Please?
Kayla: Well it was�um� the night of the victory party. We came home. Jack was in a great mood I thought. He was twirling me around and kissing me. I tried to stop him but he got angry. He started showing me all these pictures.
Steve: What pictures?
Kayla: Of you and me together. Like on New Years Eve.
Steve: Where did he get pictures like that?
Kayla: I don�t know. He said some reporter.
Steve remembers the reporter, it starts to make sense.
Kayla: He said he knew it was still going on. He saw us on the pier that night. He followed us. He said I was sleeping with you the whole time I was refusing to sleep with him. I tried to tell him it wasn�t true, but he didn�t believe me. And he kept after me and after me. And he wanted me to admit it. I told him that we weren�t going to keep it from him forever. That we were just waiting until after he won the election. But he wasn�t listening to me anymore. And he threw me down on the couch and he�
Steve: No. Stop.
Kayla: And I didn�t do anything. I didn�t scream. I didn�t hit him. I couldn�t move. I was paralized. I have thougth a million times of what I should have done. But I couldn�t move. He held me down and he tore at my clothes�
Steve: Stop. Stop.
Kayla: I hate him.
Steve: No more. (He gets up.) I have to go.
Kayla: Where are you going?
Steve: You know where I�m going, baby. I can�t let him get away with that. (He puts on his coat) I�ll be back.
Kayla: What are you going to do? You�re going to go there and kill Jack and then come back here?
Steve: I don�t know what I�m going to do Kayla! (He calms down a bit, puts his hand on his head) You gunna be alright here?
Kayla: (barely audible) No. Stay here with me. Please.
Steve throws his coat down and comes back to her side. He takes her in his arms and they cry to each other.
Steve: It�s alright, baby. You let it out. Just let it out. Go ahead and cry, you got a right. It�s okay. (He lets her go.) Come here. I just wish you would have told me sooner. I could have�I just wish you would have told me.
Kayla: Sorry.
Steve: That�s why you wanted to go away. That�s why you kept stallin� when I wanted to tell Jack. And then when we did tell him he took it so well. It didn�t make any sense. Now a lot of things make sense. Last night, you didn�t want me to touch you. Baby listen to me. (He turns her face toward him) You listening?
Kayla: Uh huh.
Steve: This doesn�t change anything. I love you I don�t want you to worry.
Kayla leans in and hugs him and cries on his shoulder again.
Steve: Don�t worry baby. I love you. (He covers her with a blanket). Here baby. Keep that on. We don�t want you to catch a chill.
Kayla: No
Steve: Still shaking a bit there. Kayla, look at me. Look at me baby. (She looks at him) I know this is bad. Can�t deny that. But we�re going to find a way to get through this thing.
Kayla: I don�t know how we'll get through it. I haven�t
Steve: That�s cause you�ve been doing it by yourself. Let me help you.
Kayla: You can�t.
Steve: (Crying) Sweetness, I�d do anything I�d give anything to take away you feel right now. Tell me what to do to take it away.
Kayla: Hold me.
Steve takes her in his arms and they cry again.
Kayla: Just hold me.
Steve: I got you. I got you baby. I�m right here.
After a pause they are walking to the fireplace.
Kayla: I didn�t think I�d feel like this again.
Steve: You worry too much. (He takes her hand and kisses her engagement ring.) Remember this?
Kayla: What happens now?
Steve: I�m gunna build us a fire.
Kayla: That�s not what I meant and you know it. What about Jack?
Steve: Let�s not talk about Jack. Let�s talk about this fire I�m going to build. How we�re going to lie down in front of it. How I�m gunna hold you, stroke you hair, just be together.
Kayla: I�d like that.
Steve: Okay. (He goes to the fireplace.) Oh, out of wood. (He puts his coat on and goes to the door.) I�ll be back in a second.
Kayla: Steve?
He goes to her.
Kayla: I never felt how much you loved me until now. I never felt how much I love you.
Steve: It�s true. I do love you. I love you more then anything ever in this life. (He looks like he wants to kiss her, but just puts his hand to her lips.) I�ll be right back.
Steve goes to the door.
Kayla: I love you.
He turns and looks at her then leaves to get firewood.
Kayla: I love you.
(Sigh�don�t you wish guys were really like this?)
Jack has just raped Kayla and she tells Steve to take her away from Salem. She hasn�t told Steve that Jack raped her. They go to a cabin in the mountains and decide to take a walk outside in the snow.
Kayla: Beautiful
Steve:(Kisses her hair) yeah, sure is.
Steve wraps his arms around Kayla and kisses her hair.
Steve: Better enjoy this while we can cause someday we�re not going to be able to do this.
Kayla: Why�s that?
Steve: Come mere sit down, I want to talk to you.
They move to sit on a rock.
Kayla: About what?
Steve: Someday we�re gunna have kids. And then they�ll be no time for mamma and poppa to take leisurely strolls in the snow. We�re gunna be too busy taking them sledding building them snowmen all that good stuff.
Kayla: (Smiling) Yeah.
Steve: Do you know what kids do when they wake up and see all this snow on the ground? Did you ever see that? They go crazy.
Kayla: I hope you�re going to help me with all those kids.
Steve: Of course I�m gunna help you, what kind of daddy do you I�m gunna be? Then there�ll be Aunt Adrienne�s kids. Course they�re probably gunna have the chauffeur ride them down the hill.
Kayla: No, I don�t think Adrienne would allow that.
Steve: No, I guess not. Then Grandma Jo will be standing at the top of the hill yelling "be careful, be careful".
Kayla: Got it all figured out, haven�t you?
Steve: I just can�t figure out how to get Uncle Billy into the picture. I don�t know, somehow it doesn�t seem quite right without him.
Kayla gets up and starts walking.
Kayla: Sure is pretty here. It�s like a sparkling white cathedral.
Steve: It is. It�s a shame to let this go to waste. Close your eyes. (Kayla closes her eyes. He reaches into his jacket and cups his hands around the ring he'd been wearing on a chain around his neck.)Kayla: (laughs) what.
Steve: K, open your eyes, Kayla
Kayla opens her eyes and laughs.
Steve: Shhh. (He opens his hands and Kayla sees the ring.) Kayla, will you marry me?
Kayla: Steve
Steve: Right now. Right here in this beautiful sparkling cathedral?
Kayla tears up and turns around without answering.
Steve: What�s the matter baby? Don�t you want to marry me?
Kayla: Of course I do. It�s just that there�s not a minister or any witnesses around.
Steve: We don�t need any of that stuff. All we need is each other. Let�s marry ourselves, right here. We�ll do it our own way. I�m gunna ask you one more time. Will you marry me?
Kayla: (whispers) Yes.
Steve: Alright. (He scrambles around) Let�s look around here.
Kayla: What are you doing? (Laughs.)
Steve: We�re gunna do this right. (He gathers up some flowers. Oddly enough there are wildflowers growing in the snow�go figure.) We may not need any of that other stuff but my wife to be needs a bouquet. Here, kneel down now. Can we kneel down?
They kneel across from each other.
Kayla: (looks at the wildflowers) It�s beautiful
Steve: (Touches her face) You�re beautiful. You ready?
Kayla: (Teary eyed) yeah
Steve: Okay, let�s get married.
They look longingly at each other. Steve cups the ring in his hand.
Steve: "So..."Kayla: "So.."
{They are both crying}
Steve: Baby...I'm not really very good with words, all I know is I love you. And we were meant to be together, forever. What do they say? Til death do us part. But you know what, I don't think even that's going to keep us apart...
Kayla: I feel the same way Steve. I feel like we've known each other- since before we were born...I think we were always supposed to be together. I know I'll love you that long. And in this life, and in the next and in the next, there will always be a part of you with me, and I will always be with you.
Steve takes the ring off his chain, slipping it on her trembling finger. 
Steve: With this ring, Steven Earl Johnson, and Kayla Caroline Brady become one. Right now and forever.
Kayla: Now and forever, I love you. I love you.
Steve: Baby, I love you
They kiss.
Britta:(from the bathroom): I�ll just be another minute.
Kayla comes into the Cheatin� Heart where Steve is just about to hustle a game of pool with a friend Jack. (Not THAT Jack�he comes later in the year. ;)) Steve: What are you doing here Sweetness? Kayla: I, ah, came to shoot a couple tables. (She points to the pool table.) Steve: Well, Jack and I were just about to break Kayla: (Clueless) Oh, great, you�re on a break then I won�t be interrupting anything. How about a game with me? Steve: (laughs and looks amused) Sure Kayla: Terrific. (She goes to the pool table.) Let�s see (picks up a cue stick) ah, what do you say we make a little wager on this game, make it a little more interesting? Steve: How much? Kayla: Um, I don�t know, how �bout (she smacks the table dramatically) ten cents a ball. Steve: Oh, come on baby, the stakes are usually a little higher then that. You know like ten bucks a ball. How�s that sound? Kayla: (looking nervous) No, no, I think ten cents. I don�t want you owing me anything that you don�t have. Steve: (Amused) Okay There�s an akward silence for a moment. Kayla: You go first Steve: Oh, no, ladies first. After you. Kayla: If you insist. (She walks to the table and laughs nervously.) Steve: Get set there, now. (He racks the balls. The bar room is watching, amused as well.) Alright. Kayla: Okay. (She stands at a funny angle and holds the cue wrong.) Steve: Wait a minute, you always break from there? The bar room laughs. Kayla: Yeah, I do. Is there something wrong with that? Steve: No, no, fine. (Turns and laughs with the rest of the bar) Fine and dandy. Kayla gets ready to shoot, then stops. Kayla: Oh, I�m sorry, did you want to take a couple of practice shots? Really? Rude. Go right ahead. Steve: (Laughing) If you don�t mind. Kayla: No, be my guest. Of course. Steve: So polite of you. (Steve breaks and the balls scatter) Kayla: Well, you know, sort of impressive. Steve: It�s your turn Kayla: (looking nervous�she has no clue what she�s doing.) Okay (She picks up some of the balls and moves them around.) Put this one over here. Stand back now, this is going to be good. She takes the shot and misses the cue ball. The bar room laughs. Kayla: Just a little rusty. Steve: Try again. She fumbles with her fingers around the cue stick for a minute then shoots. The cue ball flies through the air. The bar room laughs and claps for her. A patron picks the cue ball off the floor and tosses it to Steve. Kayla looks embarrassed. Steve: Now, I�m getting nervous. Jack: (Sarcastically) I don�t know, Patch, I think she might be hustling us. Steve walks around the table to Kayla. Steve: Come mere baby. Let me just show you some pointers. Just to refresh your memory. Kayla: Alright Steve picks a different cue stick out for Kayla and hands it to her. Steve: This one�s more your speed. Kayla: So short. Steve: (Comes up behind Kayla) Now, here�s what you wanna do here. We wanna line up the cue ball with the 13. See it down there by the corner pocket with the orange stripe on it? Kayla: Right Steve: (Stands behind Kayla and puts his hands on her waist) K, you wanna line that one up. Now you wanna stand right about here from the table, move your feet apart like this. (He takes his feet, clad in cowboy boots, and moves them between Kayla�s feet, clad in black pumps. Cute. ) Kayla: Right, right. Steve: Now, do you remember how to hold the cue? Kayla: Ye�but�Maybe you should show me. Steve: Okay, maybe I should. Put your hand down here. (He takes her hand and puts it in the right spot on the cue) Alright. This one back here. Not too tight now, you�re not reeling in a shark. Kayla: That depends on who your talking to Steve: Now just loosen up. Here we go, see that? Kayla: How�s that? Steve: (Leaning in close to Kayla from behind her) That�s just perfect, baby. That�s good. (There�s a moment for dramatic emphasis) Okay, now just slide through there really easy like a knife through butter. (He helps her slide the cue through her fingers.) Loosen up a little. Now I�m going to tell you the most important part of the kicker, is keeping your eye on the ball. I want you to be like me, I want you to close one eye. Okay. Kayla: Uh, huh (She closes one eye and scrunches up her face.) Steve: You�re gunna line up the cue ball with that 13 down there� Jim (the bartender): Hey Johnson, how you gunna take care of this tab? Steve: Just hang on a second, dude. (Goes back to Kayla, putting his face next to her cheek.) Now you don�t have to kill the cue ball, just give it a firm little spank. Kay? Jim: Yo, Johnson. Steve: Yo, barkeep. Just hang on there, Jimbo. (He backs away from Kayla) You all set? Kayla: (Sticking her tongue out just a little in concentration) Uh huh Steve: You�re on your own now. Kayla: Okay. She looks down the cue and makes a shot. Two balls go in. The bar room cheers and Steve looks surprised. Kayla looks surprised too, then proud. Steve winks at her.
(aired September 1986)
Steve: (annoyed) Yeah, make sure it�s a minute. I don�t have all day to spend here. I have places to go and
Britta: I know, people to see, right.
Steve: That�s right. That�s right.
There�s a knock on the door
Kayla: (From the door) Steve. It�s me Kayla. Wake up, it�s important.
Steve (his shirt half on): What is it?
Kayla: It�s about Frankie.
Steve (throws his shirt on the bed and goes to the door): What�s the matter with him? Is he in trouble?
Kayla: Well, if you open the door I�ll explain.
Steve opens the door and Kayla walks inside.
Steve: Sorry, I wasn�t decent. What�s the matter? Is he hurt?
Kayla: I don�t know but he didn�t come�
Kayla sees Britta come out of the bathroom wearing only a black teddy.
Britta: Hello Kayla.
Britta walks in between Steve and Kayla and gets her clothes.
Kayla: Britta
Steve (to Kayla): Go on
Kayla (flustered): Um, as I was saying, uh
Steve: Frankie
Kayla: Frankie, right, Frankie, um, he didn�t come home last night.
Steve: He didn�t come home last night? What about Max?
Britta turns and looks at Kayla after getting her clothes and smiles.
Britta: Excuse me. (She goes back into the bathroom. Kayla is watching her)
Kayla: Max is um, is fine. So when my mother went to wake up Frankie he wasn�t in his bed and it looked like he hadn�t slept in it all night and I was hoping that maybe you would know where he was.
Steve: Why would I know that?
Kayla: I don�t know. He seems to trust you. I thought maybe he�spent the night here�.last night.
Steve (amused): No. He didn�t spend the night here.
Britta exits the bathroom, fully clothed.
Kayla: No, I guess he didn�t. Goodbye Britta. Steve. (She walks out)
Steve is laughing.
Britta: What�s so funny?
Steve: Oh, nothing baby. I gotta get out of here. (Pulls his shirt on).
Britta: Something wrong?
Steve: No. You just lock the door before you go, huh.
Britta: Right.
Steve walks out but before he closes the door he calls to Kayla. Britta looks disapointed.
Aired October 1986
This isn�t a Steve/Kayla scene, but I think it�s a totally cool scene and it has Steve in it, so it qualifies. :p
Takes place during the Stockholm storyline. Roman and Hope have decided to ask for Steve�s help. Roman doesn�t like Steve or trust him during this time, but he�s desperate.
Roman: Billings told me a clue just before he died. I only told Britta half of it cause I didn�t trust her. I�m going to take my chances with you.
Steve: What was the clue?
Roman: What I told Britta was 3. But what Billings actually said was 3 knives.
Steve: (Looking disbelieving) You told Britta 3 and she said she couldn�t help?
Roman: Yeah, but like I said I only gave her half.
Steve: That was all she needed, man. She knew exactly what it meant.
Hope: Do you know what it means?
Steve: (Looking at Hope with a satisfied look) It�s us. It�s us, Hope. Me, Bo and Britta. We�re the three knives. Three together, together forever.
Hope: (confused) I don�t�
Steve: Check this out.
Steve pulls his shirt open and reveals his knife tattoo. Hope and Roman are speechless. They just found the clues to solving the missing bonds.

Kayla: Great. I love that protien you know.

Aired October 1987
This scene was completely ad-libbed and thought up by Stephen and Mary Beth. Mary Beth was actually pregnant and said that this scene conveyed the way Stephen took care of her during her pregnancy.
Steve and Kayla are laying in bed. Kayla is eating ice cream. Steve is reading a book of baby names.
Steve: Orson, Orville, Osbert. Osbert, you like Osbert?
Kayla: (laughing) No.
Steve: Hey, Moby Dick, you gunna save some of that for me? (He nods toward the bowl of ice cream)
Kayla: No fat jokes. You promised.
Steve: That wasn�t a fat joke, baby, that was a whale joke. Come on, doesn�t daddy get a little bite?
Kayla: Alright. But how are you going to explain getting fat and looking like a whale?
Steve: I wanna look just like mommy. (Rubs Kayla�s tummy.)
Steve starts playing the harmonica and sings:
Well Momma and Daddy. Were lying in bed. Momma rolled over. And Daddy was dead. Momma called the doctor. The doctor said, Well Moby Dick you shouldn�ta been lyin� in that bed. (They both laugh.)
Kayla: What kind of song is that to sing to our baby?
Steve (rubbing Kayla�s tummy): Oh, I�m sure Osbert loved it.
Kayla: Osbert.
Steve: Yeah, I can feel him laughing. (Still rubbing tummy)
Steve starts playing a lullaby on his harmonica.
Steve: Is that better?
Kayla: Uh huh. Wouldn�t it be great if our baby turned out to be musical just like his daddy?
Steve: Ah, I�m not musical. I just blow the harp a little bit.
Kayla: I know. I hope our baby turns out just like his daddy because I love him so much.
Steve: I love you too Sweetness.
They kiss and Steve is rubbing Kayla�s tummy.

Steve: Oh, you got an urge to shoot a couple of tables?
Kayla: Yeah, you know. A game of two of pool, helps you relax a little bit. So, how �bout it?
Steve: Look, Kayla, don�t ever try and hustle a hustler, baby. Alright? Something tells me you�ve been getting a little practice.

Steve: Um hum, okay, that�s the way I like to bet.
Kayla: Buck a ball.
Steve: A buck a ball? Now where did you learn to talk like that?
Kayla: What are the stakes too high for you?
Steve: No, no, it�s just, I�m not interested in money.
Kayla: I think you�re afraid to bet. I think you�re afraid I�ll beat the pants off of you.
Steve: Believe me, baby, that�s the last thing I�m afraid of, baby. I just don�t like the stakes.
Kayla: Oh? Well what do you want to play for?
Steve: Kisses. Lets play for kisses.
Kayla: You�re on.
Steve: It�s all yours
Moves from the table so Kayla can break.
Kayla: Rack, please, sir.
Steve(goes back and gets the rack): Oh, yeah. Careful now you don't choke.
Kayla: Outta my way.
She breaks, the balls scatter.
Kayla: Well, now there's a break. (Steve looks impressed.)
Kayla is getting ready to make a shot. The whole bar is watching them play.
Steve: You gotta make this one baby.
Kayla: Don't try to psych me out now. This is my kinda shot.
She takes the shot.
Steve: Yeah, come on now!
The ball goes in and the crowd cheers. She gives Steve a playful push.
Kayla: Pretty good, huh?
Jim the bartender: Hey! Way to go Kayla!
Steve: How come you don't get excited like that when I make a shot, huh?
Jim: Well, I'm afraid you're not quite as pretty as she is.
Kayla laughs.
Steve: You're right about that. Come on, Come on. Keep going, baby. I'm
getting anxious.
Kayla: Fifteen ball
Steve: (to the crowd) Don't cheer so much over there.
Kayla: In the side pocket
She misses the shot. Steve teases her.
Kayla: Alright, alright. Your shot. Go right ahead
Steve: OK. I'll go right ahead. (lines up the shot) Three ball in the corner
Kayla:You callin' it?
