PEYTON PLACE Episode 57. 04-01-65 George entertains Julie and Betty at the pizza parlor. WA: Some time ago, when George Anderson created a scene of violence in Peyton Place, he was helped by Elliot Carson. Now after some months in the shelter of Geeenvale Sanitarium, George is going home for a trial visit. Once again, Elliot Carson, by driving him home, is helping him. But in George's confused mind, Elliot Carson is the one who needs help. Intro: The square. The pillory. The cannon. Snow on the ground. Elliot and George drive up in Elliot's fifty dollar crate. Cars and the pickup with sideboards drive around the square. Scene 1: George is talking to Elliot as they arrive at the square and park in front of the Clarion. Paul comes around the corner as George goes in the double doors of the Peyton Professional Building to the east of the Clarion. He is carrying a suitcase. This is the entrance to Dr. Rossi's office building. Elliot is carrying a package and is about to walk into the Chandlery as Paul walks up. Paul is wearing a coat with fasteners like a loop and stick. Paul asks Elliot if he has brought in a visitor. Paul says he has never met George Anderson but has heard of him. Paul refers to George Anderson as the embattled insurance man. They talk briefly about George. Scene 2: Rossi is in his office talking to Julie as George comes in. Rossi asks George how he feels and tells him it is good to have him home. Julie manages to confirm this. Rossi says that he has some house calls to make. George thanks Rossi for getting Betty a job. Since he gave Julie a job also, he opines aloud if Rossi can get him a job. Rossi says that there should be plenty of jobs in town. He tells George to come by the next day. Rossi goes on a house call. George and Julie talk. Scene 3: Constance sees Elliot through the window of the Book Gallery, and rushes outside. Constance calls to Elliot and they talk about Elliot's trip to pick up George at the sanitarium. Elliot said he saw some Canadian Honkers. Constance suggests to Elliot that he should be careful. Scene 4: Inside the Chandlery, Elliot Carson is opening the package as a process server, in plain clothes, comes in and serves Elliot with a subpoena ordering him to appear in court the next day concerning Catherine Peyton Harrington's will, and to produce Elizabeth's diary. Scene 5: In Rossi's outer office, Julie reminds George that he is home. George says that he will sit over at the side. Julie says that he is not in the way. They embrace. Scene 6: Matthew Swain comes in the Chandlery and Elliot shows him the subpoena. Matthew and Elliot discuss Paul Hanley, Leslie, William Robert Wainwright, the diary and Elliot's parole. Elliot tells Matthew that he promised Constance not to tell Allison about her heritage. He says that he might burn the diary to protect Allison. Matthew warns him not to destroy evidence. Scene 7: Allison, walks up and sees Norman sitting on a ledge in front of a closed shop on the wharf. She tells him he won't get much service sitting there. She asks him to walk with her.

With a bit of prodding, Allison admits that she is a little jealous. Scene 9: In the law office over the bank, lawyer Theodore Dowell talks to Leslie. Leslie says Paul found the diary. Leslie admits he no longer denies seeing Elizabeth. Leslie says Paul now thinks it was Leslie who was at the beach house and killed Elizabeth and that Paul is willing to testify that it was Leslie's voice he heard. Dowell asks if Paul is interested in blackmail. Dowell advises Leslie to drop the case. Dowell says what was a simple fight over a codicil and now it could be a retrial of a murder. Scene 10: Rita is in the bar area of Ada Jacks' Tavern doing her fingernails, as her mother walks in the front door. It is inferred that the tavern is closed because the chairs and stools are on the tables and the counter. Ada says that Kitch Brunner never noticed her nails. Rita tells Ada that she is dating Norman Harrington. Ada says that Norman is a nice boy. Ada encourages Rita to go ahead and date Norman. Ada says not to worry about Leslie Harrington, that she can handle him. Rita asks Ada if she knows Leslie Harrington. She says she knew Leslie Harrington a long, long, time ago.

Julie says its time to get back to the office and leaves. Julie says she will be back early, that she is planning something special for dinner. George asks how Betty likes her work at the hospital.

George pays the bill and leaves. Scene 12: Out on the Peyton square, Rodney runs into Betty Anderson. Rodney tells Betty that he saw her father, but he didn't speak, because he didn't want to upset him. Betty says she is going back to work so Rodney offers her a ride back to the hospital. She declines. Scene 13: At the Peyton Mills, Leslie's temporary secretary Marian, is talking with Leslie in his inner office. Leslie tells her that if Elliot calls to tell him she can't get a hold of him. Paul comes in to talk to Leslie. Paul accuses Leslie of killing his sister. Paul says that he had his share of disadvantages but at least he didn't draw Leslie as his father. Leslie tells Paul to leave the office immediately. Leslie tells him to drop it. Paul continues to press Leslie. Leslie tells him to get out. Paul finally leaves. [Later in the series, David Schuster inherits Marian and later transfers her to accounting when he re-hires Julie Anderson. Marian had been brought into the office from the factory by Leslie after Julie abruptly resigned. Leslie calls her Mary.] In Leslie's outer office at the mill, George is waiting to see Leslie. Paul comes out and introduces himself to George. George goes in Leslie's office asks Leslie how he is. Leslie offers him a seat and a drink. George has some ginger ale. He says he has had some problems but is in good shape now. George says he wants to pay Leslie back for the hospital bills. George becomes angry over the annulment settlement.
