Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve : [answering the phone] Hello?
Ma : Oh hello, Ellen? Ellen I have some good news for you: there was a call from Judge Bryson's office. They said that Nicky's annulment has been filed, and that you've been declared legally alive,
[slightly puzzled at the last part]
Ma : and you owe him $50. Aha, so, you and Nicky are husband and wife again - you can just pick up where you left off.
Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve : Goodbye.
Nick Arden : Who was that?
Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve : [in a last lying effort to 'play hard to get'] They just phoned to say uh, the road is open.
