Caroline's writers' block sends her down memory lane to Richard's first day on the job---a day with trouble in store for Caroline because she and Del had just rekindled their romance.
Dell: You're probably wondering what I'm doing here standing in Caroline's robe?
Richard: Makes you feel pretty?
Edit
Richard: Oh come on, you practically handed me this job.
Caroline: That's right Richard, when you walked in here with your unique combination of disdain and arrogance I said to myself 'This is the man I wanna spend 8 hours a day with'.
Edit
Richard: I was not uptight. I was merely disorientated. Kind of like Charlton Heston when he realized he landed on the Planet of the Apes.
This is an allusion to the movie 'Planet of the Apes' (1968) based on the novel by Pierre Boulle. Astronaut George Taylor (played by Charlton Heston) and his crew crash-land on an unknown planet. Later they discover that the planet is ruled by apes.
