INT. JOE?S BAR
Meredith, Derek, George, Izzy, and Alex sit at the bar, but are facing the stage, Ripley and her band are playing.
�������
������������������������ RIPLEY
Hey guys, I?m going to head on back to back up singer while Keith takes over.
�������������� KEITH
So, I guess I?ll take that as a Yes.
Keith walks towards Ripley
������������������������ KEITH
You like a dozen wine red roses
Candlelights on porcelain set tables
Ripley dances a little towards Keith.
And that's fine
Well, I'll go out of my way for you anytime, that's right
Ripley takes her sweater to reveal a tank top and drops it on one of the speakers.
The fire's warm so you take off your sweater
Now it's my turn and I'll do you one better
That's the game we both like to play
Keith takes off his sweater, revealing a button down shirt. Ripley and Keith finally meet in the middle of the stage and begin circling each other as they sing.
You wink, I laugh 'cause we know
A little hug leads to a foot rub
Then a hot tub
Then a French kiss on a bear rug
Do you like it
Do you like it
How about this
Wanna try it?
Oh, oh, oh
The two stop circling each other and Ripley leans against his back and slithers down his body before standing back up.
I'll take that as a yes
Keith circles Ripley before stopping to one side and running a hand down the side of her face.
You like snugglin' with your pillow
With my arms tight holdin' us together
Breathin' deep
Driftin' like a feather in a stream

Then I touch you on your shoulder
Feel your skin soft underneath my fingers
And I know we'll never get to sleep
Ripley and Keith begin circling each other again, singing.
You wink, I laugh 'cause we know
A little hug leads to a foot rub
Then a hot tub
Then a french kiss on a bear rug
Do you like it
Do you like it
How about this
Wanna try it?
Oh, oh, oh
I'll take that as a yes
Ripley and Keith jump off of the stage, down to the floor and wind their way through the first row of the crowd and dance with people during the short instrumental interlude.
It's written all over your face
There's no mistake, no guess, no doubt
No beatin' around the bush
Baby it's understood
You wink, I laugh 'cause we know
A little hug leads to a foot rub
Then a hot tub
Then a French kiss on a bear rug
Do you like it
Do you like it
How about this
Wanna try it?
Oh, oh, oh
I'll take that as a yes

I'll take that as a yes

I'll take that as a yes
Cuz we know
That a little hug leads to a foot rub hot tub bear rug

I like it
I like it
Izzy, George, Derek and Meredith turn back around.
������������������������ IZZY
��������� They have some serious chemistry.
������������������������ GEORGE
When?s she going to tell us about one of her clarinet gigs?
�������������� MEREDITH
Who knows.She?s weird about that stuff.
�������������� IZZY
Hey guys, Thanksgiving is next week.
�������������� MEREDITH
Izzy?
�������������� IZZY
No, Meredith. You are going to be there this year. There?s no excuse. At all.
�������������� MEREDITH
But Iz-
�������������� DEREK
We?ll be there Izzy. Don?t worry about it.
Derek smiles and pats Meredith?s hand. Meredith shoots him a look.
������������������������ IZZY
��������� You, too, George.
������������������������ GEORGE
I am not promising anything. It is an O?Malley tradition to drink beer until we shoot a damn turkey.
�������������� IZZY
George?
�������������� GEORGE
I can?t stop the tradition Izzy. Trust me. I?ve tried. It?s like a Zombie that can?t be killed. It just keeps coming back to life.
�������������� IZZY
I?ll just invite Ripley?
�������������� GEORGE
I?ll try to be there, ok?
Izzy smiles.
�������������� IZZY
Ok.
�������������� MEREDITH (V.O.)
Yes, sometimes we do need a helping hand, even if we don?t want to admit it.
Shows Meredith and Derek talking and laughing.
