Jealous Restaurant 
Additional scene at end of "Jealous Hearts"

Sorry gutter fans, this one is rated G. This scene would have taken place sometime between season 9 and 10, maybe a month after "Better Laid, Than Never". 

Title: Jealous Restaurant

(A short conversation as Andy takes Connie to the same restaurant that the blind date took her to at the end of "Jealous Hearts". Andy and Connie have just been seated.)

A:Junior comes here and says this place is great so I figured we should try it. I think its been here a couple of months.

C:Actually it's about six months.

A:Really? Have you been here?

C:Once.

A:So much for surprising you.

C:That's alright. This is nice. In fact I never even ate when I was here before.

A:Didn't eat? How come?

C:Remember that blind date I had?

A:The lawyer who sent flowers to the sqaud room. He brought you here?

C:Yeah, well I left before we even ordered and I ended up calling you.

A:I remember that. Theo answered the phone and...

C:(finishing his sentence): hung up on me.

(pause as they both smile and enjoy the memory)

A:I was glad you called that night.

C:Me too.

A:I wouldn't even admit to myself I was jealous back then...... You've been awfully patient with me. I mean I'd get cold feet whenever it came time for us to move forward. 

C:Taking it slow has worked for us Andy. It got us here, didn't it?

A:Yeah it did.

C:I'll admit at times it was frustrating. But there were also times your... umm... nervousness... had a certain charm.

A:Well that's in the past. I am going to have to find a new way to charm you. 

C:(with a smile) You're doing a pretty good job right now.

Waiter:If you two are ready may I take your order.

A: Whata you say Connie you want to eat here this time?

C:Yeah, lets order. I'm not leaving to call anybody tonight.
