526: INT. HOTEL SUITE DAY FADE IN:
The next day, Michael experiences severe withdrawal.
RACHAEL: (wakes up to the sound of Michael vomiting) Michael? (gets up and runs into the bathroom)
527: INT. HOTEL SUITE (BATHROOM) DAY CUT TO:
MICHAEL: (violently vomiting)
RACHAEL: (comes in) Honey? Are you alright?
MICHAEL: I need my pills Rachael! Please!
RACHAEL: I can't do that baby.
MICHAEL: (continues vomiting) Make it stop!
RACHAEL: (rubs his back lovingly) Shhh. It's just withdrawal, it's just withdrawal. You're gonna be alright, I'm right here.
MICHAEL: (breathing heavily) Ok... I think I'm done.
RACHAEL: (helps him up) It's okay, come on. (walks him out)
528: INT. HOTEL SUITE DAY CUT TO:
Rachael stages an intervention.
RACHAEL: (sits him down on the couch) There you go. (feels his head) Jesus, you're burning up.
MICHAEL: I'm so cold.
RACHAEL: I'll get you a blanket. (hears a knock at the door) (opens it) Liz. (hugs her tightly) Thank you for coming.
LIZ: Of course. How's he doing?
RACHAEL: Not good, the withdrawal is way worse today, he's been throwing up all morning and he's shaking like a leaf.
LIZ: When was the last time he ate anything?
RACHAEL: According to Bill and Javon he's had nothing but milk and bread for days. I've been trying to get him to eat but he can't keep anything down.
LIZ: Poor thing. I'll help in any way I can. (walks over to him)
PRINCE; Hey Rach. (hugs her) (looks over at Michael) Man, Mike looks like shit. Anyway, I have a letter for you to read if you want. (hands it to her)
RACHAEL: (reads it) Prince, these are the lyrics to "Strength Of A Woman."
PRINCE: I know, I figured you could recite it rather than sing it.
RACHAEL: That's not a bad idea.
LIZ: (to Michael) You poor darling, you look awful. Michael, I think you need to go to a place where you can rest. You're physically, mentally AND emotionally exhausted. You need to get away from it all.
MICHAEL: But where would I go Liz?
LIZ: Rehab. There's a wonderful private clinic here that I can check you into. What do you say?
MICHAEL: I don't know...
RACHAEL: (takes his hands as tears well up in her eyes) Please baby, please. Do it for me.
