Yes, I fell asleep.....

I have been home, nursing a back injury for the past 4 days. I have been in and out of coma-like conditions due to medications. I have begun to watch numerous movies, never making it thru any of them.

As you can imagine, I am watching things I would not ordinarily see, for fear that switching the channels too many times may actually injure my back even further.

ALL that being said (can u tell I am bored?) I watched most of this movie, but not the ending. I would appreciate any synopsis for events following her telling him she was pregnant. I know he was not happy, but pretended to be happy but shocked. Anything from there on would be greatly appreciated![b]

BRING OUR TROOPS HOME!!!

He sets up a secret meeting to discuss her pregnancy with an as-yet-unidentified third conspirator, who is revealed to be Mike, her childhood friend.

Turns out Tim, Mike and Tony all knew each other from a previous yacht race, and even appear together in a photo on Mike's father's bulletin board.

Mike continues pressuring Tim to kill Olivia, even to the extent of arranging a boat-bomb and leaving Tim a clue that he'd done it (whether he wanted Tim or the cops to find is up to debate - I think it was a message to Tim, since framing Tim would leave Mike with no money; then again, the remainder of the flick makes it clear that Mike didn't care about the money so much as killing Olivia).

Tim rushes to the boat to stop Olivia from blowing up and winds up blowing himself up.

Olivia finds the photo of the three of them, Mike starts whaling on her, but she hits his face and pushes him out a window (he's distracted, I guess, by the awful pain to his manly face ... I dunno).

Last scene is Tim's funeral, where the lawyer reveals that Tim had himself removed from the will, proving that he came to love her after all before he died (gee, thanks).
