INT. VOGUE PHOTO SHOOT SET -- DAY -- SUMMER 43

Carrie stands on the set of a Vogue photo shoot wearing a

GORGEOUS VERA WANG GOWN. Hair, make-up: stunning. She is

surrounded by VOGUE STYLISTS and CREW. Carrie looks over to

Samantha, Stanford and Charlotte standing on the side-lines,

watching. They signal their approval. Carrie smiles...

tentative -- but excited.

SAMANTHA

She's looking quite at home for

someone who didn't think she had

the bride gene.

CHARLOTTE

Well, I guess with the right man...

STANFORD

... And the right dress.

Charlotte and Samantha smile.

STANFORD (CONT'D)

When I get married, I'm wearing

something like that. But bigger.

Samantha and Charlotte laugh. The PHOTOGRAPHER starts

working. FLASH! Carrie poses. FLASH!

CARRIE (CONT'D)

A confection so special...

Samantha reaches up and wipes away a tear.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

... It could wring a wedding tear

from even the most unbelieving of

women.

44 INT. CARRIE'S APARTMENT -- DAY -- SUMMER 44

Carrie opens the door to find a DELIVERY MAN standing there

with a very large dress box tied by a lush RIBBON.

CARRIE (V.O.)

And then the impossible happened.

JUMP CUT TO: Carrie pulling back the tissue paper to reveal:

her favorite wedding gown. Carrie picks up a hand-written

note on an engraved note card from VIVIENNE WESTWOOD. It

reads: "I saw the photos from the shoot. This dress belongs

to you. Cheers!"

45 INT. CARRIE'S APARTMENT/CLOSET -- LATER -- SUMMER 45

Carrie peeks around the closet and looks in. The gown is

hanging next to the white suit, dwarfing it.

CARRIE (V.O.)

And just like that, Vivienne

Westwood kicked my sweet little

suit's ass.

49 INT. PENTHOUSE/BEDROOM -- DAY -- LATE SUMMER 49

Big leads Carrie into their new bedroom by the hand. Her eyes

are closed and she has a DESIGNER shopping bag slung over her

one arm. He moves her around the construction debris,

stopping in front of the new closet's double doors.

BIG

Okay. Open them.

Carrie opens her eyes.

CARRIE

Double door. So far so good.

40.

She opens the closet doors, revealing a beautiful oversized,

walk-in closet with shelves and more shelves and places for

shoes and more shoes.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

Well. You did me proud, Mister.

BIG

Like it?

CARRIE

Like it? It's love at first sight.

He smiles, proud. She takes the DESIGNER shoe box out of her

shopping bag and hands it to him. She opens the lid, takes

out a pair of COLORFUL/FUN HEELS and places them on the

shelf. She turns back to him.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

Now, I believe this is all really

happening.

50 INT. CARRIE'S APARTMENT -- DAY -- LATE SUMMER 50

Miranda, Charlotte and Carrie are standing in Carrie's

apartment. Empty boxes are everywhere. Lily is coloring

quietly nearby.

MIRANDA

I can't believe it sold so fast.

CHARLOTTE

It's a sign.

CARRIE

Yeah, a sign I priced it too low.

The door buzzes. Carrie pushes the intercom button.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

That's the food -- money on the

table.

(Beat)

I'll get started in the closet... I

should be done in seventeen years.

Carrie starts into the bathroom. Charlotte calls:

CHARLOTTE

Pink Post-it -- take. Purple --

toss. Yellow: Storage.

41.

CARRIE (O.C)

(Calling out)

You're good friends.

There is a knock on the door. Miranda opens it. Samantha

stands there with her carry-on luggage.

CHARLOTTE

Samantha! Oh my God!

Carrie re-enters from the bathroom... stunned.

CARRIE

What are you doing here?!

SAMANTHA

I lot of shit went down in this

place. Attention must be payed!

She reaches into her bag and pulls out a bottle of champagne.

They all CHEER. She reaches in again and pulls out another

bottle. More cheering.

51 INT. CARRIE'S APARTMENT/BEDROOM -- LATER 51

Samantha is packing Carrie's collection of CD's, tapes and

albums. She puts on a "Best of the 80's" CD.

"80's." Lily looks up from her coloring. Miranda, Charlotte

and Samantha sit on the bed drinking champagne. Carrie poses.

"80's" outfit. The girls vote: "Take, Take, Toss." Carrie
