Scene 1

Jake and Vicky are lying in bed. Vicky's head rests upon Jake's bare chest, as he plays with her hair.

Jake: That was....Wow! I don't think that there is a word for what I'm feeling right now.
Vicky (still trying to catch her breath): Actually, I can think of a word to describe it...
Jake: And what would that be?
Vicky: Heaven! (Smiles at Jake and gently kisses him on the lips.)
Jake: Vic, I've missed this. With all that's happened, we never seem to have time to just be Vicky and Jake.
Vicky: I know Jake, I know. But, you know that I had to nail Grant and Cindy. I couldn't let them get away with what they did and I couldn't let them be a threat to this family. Jake, I've wanted a family like this my whole life, and I intend to keep it.
Jake: Well, since you are done with your scheming, and I finally have time to be with my wife, I have a question to ask you. (Grins slyly.)
Vicky: And what exactly would that be McKinnon? (Runs her fingers through his hair)
Jake: Well, I've been thinking-
Vicky (interrupting him mid-sentence): Now that's something you don't see everyday!
Jake (laughing and hitting Vicky with the pillow): Watch it Vic!
Vicky (while laughing): I'm sorry. I just can't help myself!
Jake: I know! (laughs) Anyway, back to what I was saying. I think that we should go on a second honeymoon. What do you think?
Vicky: I think that sounds great, but where should we go?
(Jake and Vicky look at each other for a couple of seconds, and then together say): New York!

Scene 2

It's the next morning. Jake and Vicky are lying in each other's arms sound asleep. Jake begins to stir, and wakes Vicky up with a few gentle kisses on the lips.

Vicky: I love to wake up like that!
Jake: Who wouldn't?!
Vicky: Do you want me to actually make a list?
Jake: You think you're funny, don't you? Well, I think this is pretty funny...No trip to New York. (Jake gives Vicky an elfish smile.)
Vicky: Ok, ok. I'm sorry.
Jake: Apology accepted. But, you know how you could really make it up to me?
Vicky: I think I know a few ways. (She kisses him passionately.)
Jake (breaking away from the kiss): Wow! That was great, but I was thinking more along the lines of two eggs, bacon, and some OJ! (Laughs)
Vicky (Grabbing the pillow from under Jake's head and hitting him with it): You are a dead man McKinnon!

Jake and Vicky get in a huge pillow fight. Vicky ends up pinning him and then kisses him. Jake returns the kiss and then rolls her over. They begin to make love as the camera pans out.
