The Oddball Parade

Billy drags Ally into his office by her "arm." They stare at each other for a few seconds. She says that she saw a whole room filled with him the night before and it was awful. He asks why. She says she doesn't know and that's why she's so upset. The last thing she wants to fantasize about is Billy. "Talk about regressing." "That was a putdown," Billy says. Ally goes on about how the lyrics of the song she was singing (backup!) last night were about pain and heartbreak and getting hurt by a man. She touches her face a lot and says she doesn't know why it happened. He asks if she's still angry. She says maybe she is. He asks why. Ally starts yelling again about how she shouldn't have to do all of the analysis. Billy yells back that he doesn't know what she's angry about. "Maybe because you left me again!" she yells. There's a moment of silence. She says that she's upset that they broke up as a couple, about which she should be relieved. She's actually fine with it, and when she looks at him and what he does, she should be relieved. She says she misses his friendship. She couldn't be friends with him the way he's been acting (this comes with another recap of the season, but I assume you know all of the things that have happened). "And then, the way that you can still see in me. And how you knew I wanted to dance, and...I so want your friendship back, I so want. I so miss it." Gee, I guess Billy really knows the real Ally, huh? Friends like those are hard to come by. Screw Elaine and Renee. And people who never met her. Billy is the only one who knew she wanted to dance. Billy says that they should try to get their friendship back. She asks how. He grabs a bowl of candy off his desk and offers it to her. He asks what's been going on in her life for the past month. She takes one candy, holds it between her fingers ("But notice how she never takes one bite, folks!"), and recaps February Sweeps. There's a look of happiness on Billy's face as Gil Bellows thinks, "I don't have to put up with this miserable bitch much longer." Billy says they should go out for drinks and talk. Ally says that he can tell her about Sandy. She asks if he likes her. He says he does. He says that his friendship with Ally is everything. He apologizes for his actions. "Are you back?" she asks. Billy stands up and opens his arms. "I'm back," he says. They hug.
