Life in Salem

Episode#395: Kristen Seeks Bo

-Lucas tells Jan that for the final time, she has to understand what he's going through...he had to help his son get his granddaughter back, and now he has a teenager and ANOTHER infant to take care of, and he loves both her and Eugenia deeply...he still needs time to process EVERYTHING thats happening in his family....his mother is in jail for goodness sakes! Jan tells Lucas that she knows, she heard this all before, and she's given him time! She says that HE has to understand how annoying it is living under one roof with the OTHER fiancee of the man she loves...she says that she knows he loves Eugenia and all that, but he ONLY loves her because she helped him while she was locked up...and she only loves him because he took care of her while she was pregnant...and now she's back and Eugenia's baby is dead, so there's no reason for them to stay together...Lucas and Eugenia were nothing but comforters for each other!

-Faye tells Abe thats so sweet of him...and Abe says its true...and asks how Brandon is. Faye says that she talked to him just a little while ago...he's doing well and is living with Carrie Brady of all people! Abe says thats great....and asks if there could be anything between the two, and Faye smiles and says from how it sounded, she thinks it could be possible...Abe says thats excellent, and he knows what he did for Sami and thought it was so noble of him....Abe also expresses how much he wishes he could have relationships with his sons...and Faye asks about Theo...and Abe sadly admits that he hasn't seen his son since Lexie took him from Abe last year!

-Suga tells Victor that he can't be serious, and Victor says he is...he says that it was wrong of him to get the court to drop ALL those charges....therefore, he's going to get them to put them back up, and Suga can go back to jail where she belongs! Suga says that he CAN'T do that to her! Victor says he can and he will...he says that he should have never hired her, and she's too much trouble for his own good...and again he just doesn't need her anymore! Suga looks at Victor, astounded, and reminds him that he did want Dorian dead and was behind TWO out of three attempts on her life...she tells him that if he sends her to jail, she's taking him with her!

-Kristen walks into Bo's office at the police station...Bo looks up at her and happily greets her, and asks what she needs...Kristen tells Bo that she needs his help! Bo asks with what, and Kristen says that they need to figure out who set her brother up to die!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Lucas tells Jan that he's sorry, but thats just not true...he says that yes, he and Eugenia comforted each other over various things that had happened...but through that, they did fall in love...Jan screams in frusteration, and asks Lucas what happened...what happened to the love that THEY shared! She asks what happened to the days where it was just them...where he only loved her...where they were happy and there was NO ONE else to interfere...the days of passion! She says that she expected to come back to that...not this CIRCUS! Lucas tells her that he misses those days too...but...there's Eugenia now and not to mention....Jan's been...different ever since she returned from the Secret Room! Jan asks him what the hell he's talking about, and Lucas explains:

Lucas:I don't know what it is, but ever since you crashed the wedding, there's been something off about you...something different! I don't know how to put my finger on it...but I feel like something's wrong!

Jan;Well Lucas, I was kept out of society with only three women and a baby around, in a room underneath a mansion...do you think I'd come back all jolly and like I was?! But, still, I don't know what you're talking about...I'm the same person I always have been, and the affects of the Secret Room have worn off...I'm just sick of Eugenia Willens!!!

Lucas:No, Jan, believe me...there's something else. There's something else going on here.

-Faye says thats terrible and tells him she never knew Lexie to be someone like...that, but Abe slowly says that things have really changed between him and Lexie while Faye was out of Salem...they broke up after he found her with Tek Kramer thanks to Larry Welch, and then Lexie ended up killing Tek...Stefano returned and they framed him for it, until Sami came along with the tape that proved him innocent...Lexie got locked up but Megan, her sister via Stefano, broke her out...then she got locked up again but got off for the murder, and thats when she took Theo from him....Faye tells him thats terrible, and comforts Abe over the loss of his son as Abe continues to talk about how much he misses Theo...Faye eventually leaves once Abe has physical therapy to go to, and as she walks away from Maggie's house she says maybe its time that Abe gets his son back!

-Victor tells Suga that no one would believe her...and Suga says please...Dorian probably figured everything out by now and could easily back her story up to the police....Victor says to Suga to not make this difficult...and Suga yells that he is trying to throw her back in the slammer for no good reason...she says that he isn't even doing this because of some change of heart...he probably just is doing it to try to make his ex-girlfriend Celeste THINK that he's had a change of heart!

-Bo asks Kristen what she's talking about...they know that Crystal shot Peter on accident...and Kristen says thats true...but she found out something that led her to thinking that someone else wanted Peter down there that night! Bo is intrigued, and Kristen explains what Tony told her at the DiMera Mansion and how she confronted Kate on it but it doesn't seem like she or Stefano wanted Peter down there...so someone else may have known about their plan, and intentionally sent Peter down there! Bo is shocked...and Kristen tells him that she HAS to find out who did this...and she needs his help! Bo and Kristen discuss this, but suddenly, Bo sees HOPE in the doorway, and she says:

Hope:Well well well, whats going on here?

-Victor snaps thats not true, and Suga says they both know it is! Suga tells him that he probably just wants her gone so Celeste will think all is well and they can have happiness...and Victor tells her to just focusing on getting locked up again! Suga and Victor continue to argue, ending with Victor walking away, and Suga vowing that he will NOT put her back in that prison for crimes she doesn't even REMEMBER doing!

-Kristen sighs as Hope enters, and tells her to not worry...nothing's going on...she's just meeting with Bo about some business. Hope tells her she's sure of that...Kristen snaps that its true, and Bo says that Kristen's right...Hope calls herself a fool for actually believing what Bo told her a few days ago...he and Kristen are still hooked on each other! Kristen, after all of this craziness, finally YELLS:

Kristen:Okay, listen, Miss Paranoid, I've had about enough of this....NO, Bo and I aren't discussing this love you THINK we have for each other...for the final damn time, you can have Bo! You can have him...I don't care...I have something more important on my mind! Like who set up my brother to die...thats why I'm here, Hope! Not to steal your husband...but to try to figure out who made sure that Peter was down at the pier the night he got shot by Crystal Galore...and for that, I need Bo's help! If you can't deal with THAT, then you can just walk out that door right now!

Hope is silent for a moment, as is Bo...Kristen turns to him and asks him if he will...will he help her find out who wanted Peter dead! Hope looks at Bo, and Bo looks at Hope, but then he looks at Kristen and tells her...yes, he will!

Episode#394: Kristen Breaksdown

-The sun has risen as another day starts in Salem!

-Jan is in the kitchen of the Spears Mansion, feeding Josh some formula....Lucas walks in and greets her, and she immediately goes over and kisses Lucas...he however ignores this, and asks how she is...she says she's fine, but just a bit irritated...and Lucas asks why...Jan explains that she got a message from Tony yesterday...telling her that he and that dumb bitch Anna had gotten back together and were leaving town after what happened at the courthouse yesterday...not even bothering to visit her personally to tell his own daughter goodbye! Lucas slowly tells Jan that maybe now she understands why he was so angry at her when he thought she had deserted him!

-Abe is at Maggie's House, and Julie walks into the living room, telling Abe there is someone here to see him...Abe turns to see none other than Faye! As Julie goes into the kitchen, Abe and Faye happily greet each other...as Abe says its been awhile, and Faye nods and says she's been around town...just dealing with some issues with her children...Abe looks at Faye and tells her he knows the look on her face when she's lying...something else is going on! Faye sighs and tells Abe that she feels like....Maggie hasn't exactly been pleased with her hanging around him.

-Suga walks down the stairs at the Kiriakis Mansion....she walks into the living room, and sees Victor....Victor is silent, flashing back to the kiss he and Dorian shared the other day before she scurried out of Titan...Suga greets him, causing him to snap out of it, and he tells her its good he found her...its time for them to talk about something very important!

-Kristen is seen standing at a cliff....she watches the sun come up...its revealed to be the cliff that Stefano and his car went flying off of months ago! She says that this is supposedly the place...first time she's ever seen it...she looks down the cliff below, and says that her father is down there somewhere...she tells him that she's confronted Kate, she's confronted Crystal...but she has yet to confront him....and now she's left with a mystery....she says outloud that she wants to know who set her brother up to die!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Kristen says, seemingly talking to Stefano on the cliff even though no one is there, that Kate and Crystal both claimed that Peter wasn't the intended victim....and they seemed honest when they said it....but it doesn't make sense...she says that Tony told her that Peter thought that SHE called him down to the pier...when she really didn't. She goes on to say that she really doesn't think that Stefano sent Peter down there...but it really is his fault, in the end...because yet again...one of his children has been caught in the cross fire of his petty wars and vendettas!

-Jan asks what that has to do with this...and Lucas says nothing, and he understands how she feels, but Jan's seemed like she refused to accept why he was so angry and why he fell in love with Eugenia so easily...it was because he THOUGHT that Jan left him suddenly, like Tony just took off from town suddenly...Jan groans and says thats very different....Lucas says it is...he just wishes she could see why he loves Eugenia like he loves her! Jan looks at Lucas with disgust and says this is RIDICULOUS...Jan screams to Lucas that she should have tossed that bitch to the CURB by now...she was here first, he should've gone right back to her...she says that she's getting so sick of him trying to have two fiancee's!!

-Abe laughs and asks Faye what she means...Maggie's not one to mind things like that! Faye says that she never said anything specific, its just...she spoke to her awhile back in May...and thats the vibe she got, so she's been staying away...Faye tells Abe she thinks its because of their past together, though she assured Maggie they're just friends...Abe assures Faye that Maggie's not like that....they have a son together...they have to talk sometimes, and he likes having Faye around! Faye asks if he really means that...and he says yes, he does!

-Suga asks what...and Victor tells Suga that he's had a bit of a...change of heart....he says that so much has happened in the past month, its changed his outlook on things...Suga is confused, and asks what this has to do with her...Victor says that he no longer needs her services! Suga asks what he means...Victor tells her that now that the whole thing with Dorian is over...he is going to send Suga back to prison where she belongs! Suga is STUNNED!

-Kristen says that both Renee and Megan were "dead" for years because of his crazy schemes...hell, she nearly got caught up in them several times...Tony of course was tortured by him, and thats what caused his crazy alternate personality to rape her! She goes on to say that both Elvis and Megan are totally screwed up for life because of him...Andre's dead...Benjy doesn't even want to know him! She also points out how EJ was right in the middle of the feud between Stefano and Helena...and low and behold, he's dead too! She says that poor Lexie...she's gone from being good, to being like him, then back to good, then back to being like him...the only reason she even has her son is because of Elvis's scheming! She says that Peter is ultimately dead too...because he wanted to kill his OTHER son...Tony! Kristen then goes on:

Kristen:I know you were just doing it for me, Father....and I don't know if I have any place to talk, considering I tried to kill Tony back at the DiMera Mansion when I shot Anna....and I wanted him dead for so long...but...my brother's dead for no good reason...and damnit, ultimately, its YOUR fault! Yours and Kate's! You two...you constantly screw up your kids lives!!! WHY, damnit, WHY?! Why do you always have to have revenge?! Why did Peter have to die?! WHY FATHER, TELL ME WHY!

Tears run down Kristen's cheeks, but then she says:

Kristen:I guess not even the Phoenix knows...but now...now that I've confronted you, Kate, and Crystal...I'm going to find the person who set Peter up to die...I'm going to find the person that wanted him dead and got their wish! But so help me, if I somehow find out that you somehow caused him to be down there that night...I'll make sure you never rise from the ashes.

Kristen then turns, and stomps off....

Episode#393: Goodbye

-Alexis tells Chris she just has a bit of researching to do, about something she heard about shortly after she came to Salem....she tells him that he probably wouldn't even remember it if he was around then, it wasn't anything huge for the entire town....as Alexis browses the computer, she finally yells "AH HA!" and says she found it...Chris takes a peak, and his eyes widen!

-Victor tells Dorian that it would be unwise to drag the police into this....Dorian tells him that someone tried to kill her twice, she should have both people involved arrested and thrown in jail for life! Victor says to Dorian that they need to try to put this behind them...he found out she wasn't the one to put Celeste in her coma, so he will leave her alone...and she needs to leave her petty vendetta behind once and for all!

-Kate is in a jail cell at the police station.....an officer approaches her and tells her that she has a visitor...Kate turns to see Kristen walking in! Kate sighs and asks if Kristen is here to blast her again...Kristen says she might be....but she has something she needs to know! Kate asks what that might be, and Kristen outright asks if Kate and Stefano set up PETER to die!

-Brandon and Carrie are at their apartment....they are just finishing eating breakfast when they hear a knock on the door...Carrie answers it to see Anna! The two greet each other and hug, and Carrie asks her mother what she needs....Anna says that she's here to tell Carrie that she's leaving Salem!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Chris says WOW...thats an OLD case....he's not sure if he even remembers it! Alexis nods and says she just needs some information related to it...she clicks around a bit, and finally says she's found EXACTLY what she's looking for! Chris realizes what Alexis is doing and tells her she really shouldn't be doing this....it'd be foolish and just digging up some old, buried emotions and chaos....Alexis says to Chris that she has to do this....she has a feeling in her gut that she should pursue this!!! She gets up and leaves, thanking him for letting her on the computer....Chris sighs and says that woman is getting way too over her head....

-Dorian asks why should she....Victor tells her that so they can move on with their lives! He says that he loved Viki, and he loved her...but during the past few years, the history with them both has haunted him too much...its time to move past this once and for all! Dorian is silent as Victor says to her that she needs to stop hating him, because he really DID love her...he felt something very deep for her....Dorian and him slowly lean in and.....KISS!

-Carrie asks Anna WHAT...she says that she herself only JUST came back to Salem! Anna nods and says she knows, and she hates that she's leaving right after she returned...she says that she and Tony have gotten back together, but they've also discovered that Peter Blake's death awhile back...it was actually set up by Tony's own father and Kate....and TONY was the intended victim, and then Crystal Galore, the woman who was suing for custody of Will's little girl, was the woman who ended up shooting Peter on accident...Carrie is shocked and says thats terrible, but she's glad she and Tony have finally worked it out...Anna goes on to say that after both of them being so involved in that craziness, and the whole Kate thing....they both think it may be best to take a break from Salem....so this is goodbye!

-Kate looks at Kristen, confused, and tells her that she thought that both she and Crystal made it QUITE clear that Peter wasn't supposed to be the victim, or even involved in that whole thing at all....Kristen tells Kate that Tony mentioned at the DiMera Mansion, when he was there to mend the fences between them before leaving town with Anna, that Peter said at the pier that SHE called him down there....when she didn't at all...so she's beginning to think that SOMEONE knew what was going to happen, and wanted Peter down there...Kate looks at Kristen in shock and says:

Kate:Wait...Tony's....leaving town?

-Carrie tells Anna that she can't believe this...its just....so shocking....but nonetheless, she....wishes her well and she loves her! Carrie and Anna hug again, having somewhat of an emotional goodbye after many years of a troubled relationship....Anna looks at Brandon, and she asks them both if they are....in some kind of relationship! Both immediately deny it, and Anna just smiles before leaving....after she leaves, Carrie says that now...the only mother she had besides Marlena is gone. Brandon tells her it'll be alright as he hugs her...Anna watches from a distance, thinking to herself that Carrie's falling in love all over again, and she turns and leaves the apartment complex...

-Kristen tells Kate yes...he and Anna are back together, and leaving Salem today...Kate is shocked and hurt, knowing that she caused this and now her and Tony really ARE over for good...Kristen says that they need to get back to the topic at hand...Kate swears to Kristen that neither her nor Stefano wanted Peter dead...he was NOT supposed to be at the pier that night! Kristen is hesitant at first, but slowly believes Kate, and leaves, knowing now that someone ELSE knew about the plot to kill Tony and intentionally sent Peter down there....

-Anna enters the airport....where Tony is revealed to be! Tony and Anna greet each other and share a passionate kiss, as Anna says she said goodbye to Carrie...Tony tells her that he's...made some kind of peace with Kristen, and couldn't find Jan but he left a message on her phone...he says he hates to do it that way but sadly, there was no other way...and it just represents the odd relationship he and Jan have...Anna slowly nods, and says that their goodbyes have been said....now its time to leave! Tony and Anna continue to kiss as they prepare to board their plane....they soon get on the plane and it takes off....the supercouple looks out at the town before them, their home....a tear falls from Anna's eye, but Tony just puts his arms around , her first husband who she fell in love with...she thinks of Andre and Stefano and Vince and how much they all tortured her and Tony....Tony also sits and looks out the window, he thinks of Marlena, and how to this day he still loves her...he also thinks of Renee, his first true love...he thinks os his father and the difficult relationship they had...he thinks of his mother and how close he was to her...he thinks of Jan, his hidden child that he didn't find out about until last year....he also thinks of Kristen, and the love they shared years ago, and then Vince raping her...he thinks of Vince and how much he haunted his life...and he also thinks of Kate....who he loved in a way, but discovered she wanted him dead...he thinks of Andre, who took over his life one too many times...he thinks to himself that he's had alot of pain in Salem...but also has had alot of love, laughs, and happiness...he looks at Anna, who looks at him....and the two think of each other...and how much they have always loved each other, and how much they belong together, despite the huge issues they've faced....the two lock lips one last time, celebrating their love, as the plane flies away from Salem....

Episode#392: Tony and Kristen Have It Out

-Eugenia asks Jan what she means, and Jan realizes the slip up she just made, and quickly covers herself by explaining to Eugenia that around 7 years ago...she lost her baby she had been carrying for months...her baby with Paul Mendez. She tells Eugenia about how thats when she fell in love with Shawn, but she fell down the stairs at Bo and Hope's house after an argument with Belle...but then told everyone Belle pushed her down the stairs....she carried that baby in her womb for so long...and then it died...so yes, she knows how it feels to lose a child! Eugenia nods and says that she heard about that....Eugenia finally says that this is such a grim subject, they should change it....she looks at Josh and grins, saying that he really is a BEAUTIUFUL baby....she asks Jan out of curiosity what day he was born....and Jan instinctively says:

Jan:March 24th.

Eugenia:Oh...oh my....thats the exact day Blake was born!

-Chris stares at Alexis and tells her its time for her to leave NOW, but she seductively tells him no...she wants to stay with him...as she comes onto him! Chris begins to get nervous, and Alexis continues to seduce him...Chris finally yells FINE...he'll let her on the computer if she stops this!

-Victor tells Dorian that even after all these years, she still has a brain...Dorian says of course, thats why he was attracted to her in the first place...he needed someone smarter than Viki! Victor snaps for her to not speak of Viki that way, and asks Victor why she even came to Salem in the first place...Dorian explains that she heard about how Viki/Nikki being here awhile back, and she knew that this was the perfect chance to come to Salem for revenge on Victor...for screwing her over in favor of Viki all those years ago!

-At the DiMera Mansion, Kristen is in the entryway, and she hears a knock on the door...she answers it to see none other than Tony!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Jan realizes she slipped up, and her eyes widen....she plays dumb and asks Eugenia if thats really true...and Eugenia nods and says yes....she was called down to the hospital that night by some nurse...and she says that its still so blurry, but she somehow had these huge complications, had to be knocked out, and went into labour...and her son was stillborn....Jan slowly says thats too bad, and Eugenia tells her that she knows they're not friends...but she thinks Jan is really lucky to have such a beautiful baby like Josh. Jan just tilts her head, and says that they need to go....Jan scurries away, as Eugenia slowly touches her son's grave, wondering why he couldn't have lived....

-Alexis says its his loss...but thanks him as she slowly sits down, and gets on the police computer...Chris looks at her in disgust, saying she's yet another crazy woman here in Salem....Alexis tells him that at least she's not a stabbing psycho, or a woman who accusses innocent people of trying to kill them....Chris asks Alexis what she wants on that computer anyway!

-Kristen looks at Tony....the last time she spoke to him was at Peter's funeral months ago, even though she saw him at the custody trial just the other day...she slowly backs away, asking him what the hell he wants...Tony promises her that he's not here to start anything or harm her....he tells her that he's here....to mend fences between them...once and for all!

-Victor tells Dorian that he NEVER screwed her over for Viki....Dorian gets angry and tells him he sure as hell did! Dorian tells Victor that they had something...perhaps love...but he also had love with Viki, AND Nikki Smith, and was always so back and forth...but they definitely had something...they had chemistry! Yet in the end, he ended up pledging his love for Viki and leaving her out in the cold...and it'd come back to haunt him many years later! Victor tells Dorian that he always has and always will has huge love for Viki...but that all ended thanks to Clint Buchanan. Victor says that as usual, she's blaming Viki for something that wasn't her or his fault...he says it simply was that he did love Viki...it was a deep love, and for the record, he couldn't give a damn about Nikki Smith! Dorian says that it all goes back to that, though, and thats why she's wanted revenge on him for months now....and him hiring that woman to kill her...gives her the perfect chance for revenge now...she says that she was going to make that Destiny girl help her in return for the information on Crystal...but she doesn't need that now that she has THIS!

-Kristen shakes her head at Tony and tells him to get out....she doesn't want to see his sorry ass ever again, she thought she made that perfectly clear! Tony nods but argues that he didn't kill Peter...like she accused him of doing. Kristen asks if he wants a medal for that...being a rapist instead of a murderor. Tony again claims that he is not a rapist...it was Vince...Vince did all of that! Kristen tells Tony she has enough to deal with, he needs to go away...Tony tells her that he is....the whole reason he's here today is because...he and Anna are back together, and they're leaving Salem! He says that she won't ever have to see him again after this...but he just...would hate to leave Salem without making amends with his adopted sister...and his, or Vince's, ex-wife...despite all the craziness between them since the rape. Kristen slowly says she can't believe this...him leaving Salem....she is silent, and after a minute says its funny...six months ago...she would have literally rejoiced...and she still feels like it now...but she also doesn't know how to feel...she tells him that she really did think he killed Peter, and she hates him...but these past several months have really...changed her. She tells Tony that she's over the rape now....she says that...something happened a few months ago that caused her to move past it...and she's still grieving her brother, but she has alot more on her mind...so she says that maybe it is time to...forgive him...especially if it was actually Vince. Tony nods and thanks her, as Kristen says that...she'll try to slowly forgive him, and she wishes him the best....Tony again thanks her, and apologizes about Peter...he says that it shouldn't have happened, Peter was a good man and a great brother...he then goes on to say:

Tony:And Kristen, in a way you've been right all along....it was because of me, partially....I was the intended victim...he was only down there because you wanted to meet him there...

Kristen:Wait, what?

Tony:Peter came down there shortly after I arrived, because Anna was held at gunpoint by one of Stefano's men and called ME down there...Peter said that you called him down there...he accused me of doing something to you, and thats how we started fighting before Crystal shot him.

Kristen:I....I...never called Peter down there...I mean, if I wanted to talk to him I could've just called him or done it here...but Kate and Crystal both said that his death was an accident, and Father wouldn't dare set Peter up....

Tony:But, if you weren't the one to lure him down there....then it seems someone may have known about what was going to happen, and they wanted him dead...

Kristen:You're right...but you know what, I'll deal with this myself...you just...you just have a good life with Anna...and it'll take a long time for me to fully forgive you...but I will try, and I...am over the rape. Someone special has really helped me through that in more ways than one...so you can consider us on...speakable terms, at least. And I...really am sorry for the hell I've put you and even Anna through during the past year and a half.

Tony:No, I understand...you have no need to apologize, and I am truly and deeply sorry for what Vince put you through....raping you like that...it had to be horrible. But rest assured, Vince is gone now...and I'll make sure he, nor I, ever hurt you again....and for the record, although alot of it was Vince in that era....I think....a part of me really did love you, from what little I can remember and what little I was there for, all those years ago when we fell in love and wed..

Kristen:Thank...you, Tony.

Kristen and Tony then say their goodbye....the former couple that has had such a rocky relationship since 1993 and especially since the rape resolving their differences, but going their seperate ways...Tony leaves the DiMera Mansion, as Kristen realizes that someone set her brother up to die as well....and she vows to find out who!

Episode#391: Tony and Anna's Decision

-Its another new day in Salem!

-Outside St.Luke's, Jan is seen in the cemetary with baby Josh in a stroller....Jan stands over the grave of Blake Willens/Bradley Spears....she slowly touches it, as a few tears fall from her eyes....she tells him she's so sorry its taken mommy so long to visit...she's just been busy with daddy...and also, she's taking care of his brother Josh...she tells him she's sorry she had to practically give him to that witch Eugenia...but its for the best, and she hasn't forgotten about him...and now, she has a new baby that will help her get over his death, and help her and daddy start a family....however, Jan hears someone ask what she's doing at her son's grave, and she looks up to see EUGENIA!

-Alexis is seen sitting at the police station....she has a hat and sunglasses on, and is reading the newspaper....she looks up, makes sure no one sees her, and slowly stands up, tossing the news paper aside...she edges towards one of the computers, and grins as she gets there and begins to sit down...but suddenly her arm is grabbed by none other than Chris, who asks her what the hell she thinks she's doing!

-Victor is at Titan...in between doing work, he constantly tries to call Celeste, but she doesn't answer...he leaves messages on her phone, telling her how much he loves her and that they need to talk...he looks at a newspaper beside him, and sees the news story about Crystal and Kate getting arrested for Peter's murder, and his eyes widen, especially when he sees Dorian mentioned! But his reading is interrupted by Dorian herself when she walks right into his office, saying:

Dorian:Well well well...if it isn't the man who wanted me dead.

-Tony and Anna are in bed at the Salem Inn....both are naked and underneath the covers in Tony's bed! Anna tells him that was a great night of love making...its been far too long! Tony agrees, and says he is so pleased that they're back together...Anna says she still just can't believe what he told her about Kate, her and Stefano setting him up to be killed, and hiring that Crystal Galore woman....and then turning around and being his friend and sleeping with him! Tony nods and says that he supposes he just got tricked...but now, he's looking forward to a bright future with Anna! He then says thats why he needs to say something...he tells her he's been heavily thinking about something ever since they made love, and then he says:

Tony:Anna, my dear, I think we should leave Salem.

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Jan looks at Eugenia, and Eugenia again asks Jan what she's doing at her own son's grave...Jan stutters for a moment, but slowly tells Eugenia that Lucas talked about how her baby died in childbirth one night, and so she decided to just come down here and see where he was buried....Eugenia says to Jan that it seemed like Jan was doing more than just looking at the gravesite, though...Jan shrugs and says she was just telling him what a great life he would have had with Lucas around...Jan then goes on to snap that of course, Eugenia would have been out on her ass soon anyway...Eugenia tells Jan NOT to start this here, NOT in the presence of her baby boy...Jan glances at Josh real fast but quickly snaps out of it, and Jan says fine...Eugenia tells her at least she has her baby....her's died before it had a chance to live! Eugenia says to Jan that she just wishes she could stop with all the insults because while she may not be the best person in the world, she's gone through ALOT in the past year or two! Eugenia tells Jan that she doesn't know what kind of agnozing pain a mother goes through when their child dies, and Jan finally tells Eugenia firmly:

Jan:Oh, I definitely do!

-Alexis tells Chris to get his hands off of her, and Chris tells her he will after he knows what she's doing near government computers! Alexis tells him not to be so pushy....she just wanted to...check up on how Laura's case was doing! Chris rolls his eyes and tells her that Laura doesn't even HAVE a "case" yet, she hasn't been arrested! Chris orders Alexis to tells him what she's doing here right now...and Alexis bites her lip, but then wraps her free arm around Chris and seductively says:

Tony asks if she's serious....Anna says yes...she tells him that Carrie encouraged her to do it, and she didn't want to, but then she visited Roman...and just talking about it like that...made her realize that she doesn't want it to end...she tells Tony that IF...IF he can be serious with her, and have a serious relationship...then....maybe she wants to try something again...Tony nods and says he definitely can, after everything with Kate...he definitely can. Anna asks Tony if Kate will be a problem...and he promises her that he's done with Kate Roberts for good! Tony tells Anna that he loves her so much...and right now...he needs her more than ever!

Tony then says:

-Lisa and Will and the Galore's and Ji'Min all continue to fight each other in court, as Ji'Min constantly points out how irresponsible Will has proven to be...he says that he nearly got himself and Destiny Stokes killed one night last March in a car crash that killed Stefano DiMera, a former client of his! Lisa points out that that was Stefano's fault, as Will wonders where Destiny is and how she couldn't be here for him on this cruical day, and Judge Fitzpatrick finally calls a recess, saying she's heard everything she needs to hear...and now, she is going to go make a decision and will be back momentarily!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Benard and Crystal approach Will....Benard tells Will that was a pitiful defense he put on, and it seems not even his good friend Destiny is here to support him...he says that she must have come to her senses! Will tells Benard to shut up, and soon he'll show him that he's not just some rogue kid...the couple laughs, as Crystal tells Will that he's not just that...he's much less! She says that he's simply a street rat, who probably thinks that baby Arianna is somehow a meal ticket with him having the excuse of being an underage parent...Will lunges at Crystal but Lucas holds him back, as Lisa tells Crystal that for an old slutty bag and a geezer they have a mighty pair of big one's....Crystal tells her oh please, her black ass could only come up with Nicole Walker as a decent defense against her...Nicole then comes forward and says to Crystal:

Nicole:Up your ass, Crystal.

Crystal:Oh, Nicole, you still have that nice sass....what hunk are you bedding today? I heard that Brady guy left town...must be pretty sad, going through men like that....

Nicole:Watch yourself, Crystal....your husband here may think that you two have a happy, long standing marriage...but lets not forget how you fell head over heels for John Black while in Salem last time, without Benny boy here...and I'm sure you've cheated on him with many other men.

Benard:As if I'd believe a whore like you...you know, Lucas, it must be lovely....four ex-wives or ex-almost-wives gathered in the same court room...if only Carrie Brady were here. See, I said it before and I'll say it again, this is where Will gets his bad habits from...his father and of course his mother or step-mother's.

Eugenia:You need to watch your mouth, mister, before we have a problem.

Sami:Nah, let them have their fun....once Will gets Arianna back, it will all go to hell for them anyway.

Benard:Oh please...soon, WE will have Arianna, and the three of us will be out of this crazy town in a flash....and we'll never have to see this scrawny, pathetic excuse for a man ever again.

Will:Okay, thats ENOUGH! I've put up with you two long enough...I put up with you guys when I fell in love with Arianna, when she got pregnant, when she died, when Arianna the baby was born....and for months and months I've let you insult me and taunt me, saying how you'll get her back....you've insulted me, my family, Destiny...I've had ENOUGH! So be sure that once *I*, not YOU, get MY daughter, you two will never touch my baby girl again....and I'm also sure that wherever Arianna, the woman I fell in love with, is....she's frowning at you two...her own parents mocking the man she loves.

Benard and Crystal just snarl at Will and go back to their own table, and Benard assures her that Arianna will be their's at the end of the day...Crystal agrees, but looks to the back of the courtroom and sees TONY there, and wonders what the hell he's doing here!

-Destiny and Dorian both slowly look at Kate as they cough and practically fall out of the truck, into the fresh air...Kate exclaims thank goodness she got here in time and tells them that there isn't much time...Destiny asks her why she's here, and Kate explains that the custody trial is going on right now...and it doesn't look good for Will...she tells the two that she knows she was involved in Peter's death, but they have to go there and tell the court everything before its too late! Dorian and Destiny both agree, and they take off for the courthouse!

-Maggie and Julie approach Will and assure him that everything will be alright...Will thanks them, and Lucas says that they're right...Will tells them that he just wonders where Destiny is....he hasn't seen her since early yesterday...and this is just weird, especially with how much she helped him throughout all this...Lucas admits that this isn't like Destiny, but says he's sure that she will be here eventually...Will asks his dad about if the Galore's are right, what if she did "come to her senses" and desert him...Lucas says that Destiny would NEVER do that, and urges him to not jump to conclusions, reminding him of what happened with Jan....Will says in that case, he hopes she's okay....suddenly, Judge Fitzpatrick comes out and tells everyone that she's made a decision!

Episode#383: Kate's Choice

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Anna flashes back to seeing Tony and Kate having sex, but quickly snaps out of it, lying to her daughter by saying that no, its just...the whole thing with Nicole and Jan and Marlena pretty much ruined her and Tony....and she thinks Tony probably still loves Marlena....Carrie tells Anna that after Renee "died" in 1983, Tony loved her, but he and Anna still had deep love....she encourages her mother to give her and Tony another chance.

-Carrie leaves the Brady Pub after she and Anna finish talking....Anna sighs as she thinks about Tony, and she thinks that a part of her hates him....she's been pulled around by him for years....one minute he loves her, then its Renee, then its her again, then years later its Marlena, then its her, then its Kate....but then she thinks that a part of her does love him.....and she just can't forget about him. Anna sighs as she also leaves the Pub....

-Nicole explains that she's known Crystal for many years.....and she's no good woman....Nicole explains how Crystal very willingly helped "kill" Marlena Evans in 2004, and was a porn star....she says that she also knows Will and his father, and knows that they are good people....Crystal scowls, staring at her former partner in crime...soon Nicole gets off the stand, as Lisa explains that there they have it...Crystal is an attempted murderor, she couldn't raise a baby! Ji'Min deflects that was a long time ago, and Benard is a model citizen....Kate in the background thinks that this isn't enough to stop the Galore's!

Alexis:Fine...okay, no offense here....but that little slut stole my man.

-Kate begins to rethink telling everyone about Crystal killing Peter...because in the past couple months, while she used to LOATHE Tony, she's gotten closer to him, gotten to know him and understand him....and she knows he's a great man, but he'll hate her if she reveals everything...however, she also knows that she loves her grandson and even her great granddaughter...Kate sighs as she and Tony slowly sit down....

Tony smiles at her, and Jan then slowly asks him if he'd like to come to that custody trial!

-Bo tells Hope that after he poured his heart out to her, it obviously touched her somewhere in there and they just....fell into each other's arms, and soon fell asleep...they may not have had sex, but they did fall asleep together....and that only proves the point he was trying to make last night...Hope snaps not to start with THAT again, and Bo says he knows this is confusing....but it only shows what he's been saying this entire time....they still love each other, and maybe this is the beginning of them repairing their marriage.

Kate:Not if I have anything to say about it....

-Destiny collapses onto the floor of the truck as she coughs, and she wonders outloud whats going on....she tries to get the strength to at least stand up, and she leans against the wall of the truck and as the drugs continue to wear off, she gains a clearer vision...she goes over to Dorian, and slowly tries to wake her up, saying that something really weird is happening!

-Destiny begs Dorian to wake up, saying that she doesn't know where they are....slowly, Dorian awakens!

-Kate thinks to herself that she can't let this happen....the Galore's look so perfect to everyone...but then again, she AND Crystal would go to jail for murder if she revealed it...and two innocent people may be on the brink of death...this murder spree can't continue!

-Crystal and Benard approach Will, Lisa, and his parents....Crystal taunts Will, saying that today he'll get just what his pathetic ass deserves...and they will get what they deserve: Arianna! Will growls that they act like she's some kind of prize...Sami tells the Galore's that they shouldn't bet on that...she tells Crystal to go back to making porn movies and Benard to go to some retirement home! Benard laughs and says this is exactly why the court won't let Will have their precious granddaughter...he comes from two low-class, rats of parents! Will lunges at Benard but Lucas holds him back, telling his son it won't do him any good...Benard and Crystal continue to taunt Will about how he'll never see Arianna again, and they're going to win for their dead daughter, causing Will to get angrier and angrier until Lisa finally intervenes and says she's not having them badger her client!

-Laura walks into the living room of Maggie's house....and is stunned to see...Bo and Hope asleep on the couch together!

-On the outskirts of Salem, near the woods....there is a huge truck there...Destiny and Dorian are still knocked out, and Dorian is off her bed and machines but stable, as Crystal puts them both in a huge moving truck....she thinks to herself that this may seem odd, but its one of the few things she can do to make SURE that they die, she may have killed Peter but even when Marlena appeared to have died the good ole fashion way it didn't work, and two classic attempts on Dorian's life didn't kill her, so she has a new style....she makes sure there are NO vents in the truck whatsoever...and finally, grabs a HUGE tank of poisonous gas!

-At the courthouse, Lucas, Sami, Will, Benard, Ji'Min, Will's lawyer Lisa Ray(special guest star Lisa Raye), Maggie, Julie, Kate, and Eugenia are all down at the courthouse...Lucas and Sami are with their son and Lisa at his table, as he stares at Benard...Sami promises Will that they'll wipe the floor with Benard and Crystal, and Lucas says that his mother's right...Will slowly and nervously nods, as Benard gives him smug looks, and Lisa assures Will that his father didn't pay for her to come all the way from Pasadena for nothing...she won't lie, the odds are tipped a bit against him, but the Galore's aren't perfect either, so they are going to fight like none of them have ever fought before...Will thanks her, and says that this is the day that will decide everything in one fell swoop....who his precious little baby, that he hasn't seen in MONTHS, will go to...he wonders where Destiny is, saying that he hasn't seen her since yesterday...and she was supposed to have something critical on Crystal...Maggie tells him that she's sure Destiny is fine, just a bit late...Kate watches the situation, as she thinks that Destiny and Dorian are probably being put to death as they speak....she thinks that she has to stop this...she can't let her grandson lose his daughter, and can't let her great-granddaughter go into the hands of those vultures!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Benard is with Ji'Min, as Ji'Min tells Benard that he's glad they hired him as their lawyer...he says that Will is an underage teenager and has a few crimes on his record, and has already briefly been in jail, and its all recent...despite Crystal's mistakes years ago, it will be easy as pie to get Arianna into their hands! Benard says excellent, he knew that fool wouldn't be able to take his granddaughter from him...but he wonders where Crystal is....she told him she'd be late but he didn't think she'd be this late!

-Jan slowly greets Tony....saying she's shocked to see him here...Tony says at times he just likes to walk through Salem, especially the park...its a very peaceful and serene place...Jan agrees, and says thats why she and the boys are here...Tony says that his grandchildren are beautiful....Jan thanks him, and Tony tells her that he's sorry that things have been so rough for her...and that he hasn't been able to be there...Jan tells him its alright, all she needs is Lucas....Tony shakes his head, and says that she needs a parent at least....Jan says that she never needed parents when she had two evil ones, and she doesn't need a father now.

-Bo and Hope are stunned as they realize that they both slept on the couch together, over night...Laura says that Julie and Maggie both were hoping that you two would work everything out....Hope is in disarray as she asks Laura if she'll please excuse them, and Laura obliges..after she leaves, Hope closes all the doors and asks Bo what the HELL happened last night!

-Crystal says that she is really sorry that it has to end this way....she didn't even know Dorian and she could be a nice woman, but she knows too much about her...she says that she never liked Destiny that much, but she was her daughter's best friend....but now, its her time to die, too.....she sighs and says that you gotta do what you gotta do as she RELASES the gas! The poisonous air fills the back of the huge truck as Crystal closes and secures the back hatch, and takes a drink of a swig of alcohol as she declares that she will get Arianna back today, before heading for the courthouse....

-Will and his parents discuss their strategy with Lisa, as Kate and Maggie both stand by and watch....Lisa tells Will that one big advantage they have over the Galore's is Crystal's porn star past, her time in prison, and her nearly killing Marlena...all of those things are very big, and will be useful....she says that Benard doesn't seem to have as much of a sketchy past, but Crystal's makes up for that...she warns Will that she thinks that Ji'Min will use the fact that he is underage, kidnapped Arianna and got thrown in jail for a few days against him....Lucas says that they can easily deflect that, as Kate continues to think about how if the judge knew Crystal killed Peter this trial would be so simple, and Lisa says that there is another problem....Will asks what, and says that she listed all his crimes, and Lisa then goes on to say:

Lisa:Yes, I did, but Will....the Spears Mansion household may be one thing that will hurt our case.

-Destiny and Dorian are both in the truck filled with poisonous gas....slowly, the original drugs wear off of Destiny and she wakes up and begins to cough....she wonders whats going on as she looks around and see Dorian.....Destiny continues to cough and as soon as standing up, she collapses!

She says that she's leaving the door right open for them to get together....she's not trying to cling to him and act like a psycho, like some in this town do! But then he acts like a dumbass and won't even take the opportunity! Bo says that yes, him and Kristen had passionate sex....yes, they may have a connection....but he and Hope still have a connection too...its just buried underneath whats transpired over the past two and a half years...he then pulls Hope into a kiss!

-Victor looks at Suga with the UTMOST anger and fury in his eyes....and tells Celeste not to listen to this bitch! He says that she's amnesiac, she doesn't remember her life before Winter of 2009! Celeste looks at Suga, wondering if what Victor's saying is true, but then she looks at Victor and tells him that she knows him, they've been dating for about a year and a half now....she sees the lie in his eyes....she says that she's always known what the infamous Victor Kiriakis is capable of...but she thought he moved past this! Victor says to Celeste that he was angry and only trying to protect her from that bitch...because even though it was Greta behind Celeste falling into a coma, Dorian is still a very lethal and dangerous bitch! Celeste recalls Dorian popping into the Kiriakis Mansion a few times, and their confrontation a few months ago....she looks Victor RIGHT in the eyes and asks:

Celeste:Dahling, I want to know something....and I want to know it now....what is your connection to Mrs.Lord?

-Kate is walking through the hospital, and she catches up to Mike, who's leaving another patient's room...she tells him that she has a question for him, and he tells her to shoot...she explains that yesterday at her son's wedding, a woman named Dorian Lord was shot, and she knows she's alive...but she wants to know what the chances are of if she will be able to live for long or not!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Hope and Bo kiss....the kiss is one of passion, and perhaps even a spark...but Hope then pulls back, and slaps Bo...asking him what the hell he's doing! Bo says he's trying to remind her of what they have! Hope tells him that they have NOTHING...she tells Bo that he has a piece of her heart, but its over...their marriage, their love...its all gone! Bo says he's tired of her saying that, and Hope says:

Hope:Brady, from the minute I was thrown in jail for murdering Gina last year...after coming home from Pasadena and spending time with you....it was great, but I knew that it was over...the spark, the love, the CONNECTION...it was gone....I could see it in your eyes....thats why I stayed away from you while you were in jail, and I wanted you to move on.

Bo:No, Fancy Face, no you didn't...Hope, if that connection was gone...if you really wanted me to move on during those months that you were in the slammer...then you wouldn't have run off in tears when you saw me and Kristen in bed together...it wouldn't hurt so much if it was gone, Hope....I know it hurts, you try to act strong and like you don't care but I know you do....and yes, its true, I was hurt, mad, confused, and everything else when I found out that you killed Gina, and then you ran off, and then I had to throw my own wife into prison....we were BOTH in such a horrible state back then....but you served your time in jail, and its in the past.....I'm over that, it was such a long time ago....you need to put that behind you, too....and yes, I turned to Kristen for support...because my wife, my SOULMATE had murdered someone and was locked up...you'd do the same thing! And Kristen was getting over her rape, and her brother had just been killed...thats why we had sex!

Hope:You're right it was a long time ago...and too much time has passed for us to just pick up and have a happy marriage again! The last time our marriage was actually stable was before Gina died....and that changed everything. That bitch is still affecting me to this day, even after being dead and gone for almost two years. But Bo, I saw the connection you and Kristen had that night, and still have, you just try to ignore it! You are doing the same thing that you THINK I'm doing!

Bo:Fine...I won't deny it...yes, Kristen and I have some kind of...connection, maybe even a spark...I'll be truthful and say that we didn't have sex that night for nothing....and we wanted to stop, but we couldn't because there was something there....but Hope....I've had love with other women, too. I had it with Billie, way back...we were so happy, we loved each other so much...but then you came back and figured out who you were...and our own love prevailed...Billie even came back a few times after that, and it caused us problems, yes, but even my own daughter coming back from the grave couldn't stop us from winning....you know you remember our love, Hope Williams....

Hope:Just STO-

Bo:You remember all the great times we had...I reminded you of them a couple months ago, and I'll remind you again now...even through the tough times, we got through and stayed strong....do you remember when your dad busted in on us back in 82, and had a heart attack? We got through that, didn't we? What about when Larry and Megan tried to come back in between us, or the constant adventures we had? Or when you almost got blamed for Megan's "death", and all the times when Stefano went after us? Or when Britta showed up? Or when you got dropped in that vat of acid...I thought you were dead for four years and fell in love with Carly and Billie, but then I found you again, and we even got through your amnesia....I remember us unlocking the puzzle box, even to this day....we fought Gina the first time, when she took over your life...and then we had JT...and we fell in love with that little boy....but he got taken from us and it turned out he wasn't ours...we got through that, didn't we? And then we fought Lexie during the chaos with Zack...and we fought Larry when he kidnapped you two....we fought Maya...we fought Andre and the Salem Stalker...we fought Chelsea, my own daughter...and then Zack died...our little boy...hit by a car and was killed...I still remember your scream when he died...we had problems, but we got through it and had two beautiful daughters....Shawn was killed by Gina, and she was revealed to be Britta, but we fought her, and got through that....so BY DAMN, we can get through this....our love will survive, Hope....you're the one for me...you always were...and you always will be.

Hope is moved to tears by this....and she begins crying and breaks down as she falls into Bo's arms, and he holds his wife....

-Victor sighs and tells Celeste that its probably about time he is open and honest about it....he explains to her that many many years ago...he fell in love with Viki Lord...and her alter, Nikki Smith....but then....he cheated on her with Dorian Lord, Viki's arch-rival...but eventually, he left Dorian for Viki....but Viki left him...he says the reason Dorian came to Salem is because she wanted revenge on him for that....and thats why he thought she put Celeste in that coma...and Celeste says that he retaliated by nearly killing the woman...Victor says that she has to understand, thats his instinctive way to do things....that is how he's always been! Celeste shakes her head and says she really thought he was different...but he so heartlessly wanted a woman, an ex no less, dead....she tells Victor that she's grown to love him so much, and they've been so happy together, and Victor then smiles and says:

Victor:I know, Celeste, I love you....I love you dearly....can you at least forgive me?

Celeste:Oh, Victor, dahling....I want to....when I woke up, I just wanted to get on to my life with you...but sadly, I can't live with this....who's to say you won't kill again, dahling? You faked Steve Johnson's death....you've done so many things....and now you've done it again....I can't believe my cards didn't tell me of this, but I was away from them for a long while....but my point remains....Victor, I'm sorry, but.....we're through....I just can't put up with that type of life....I loved Stefano for too long, and took part in too many of his schemes....I know what its like....to love an evil man so dearly....and I won't go through it again....therefore, goodbye, Victor Kiriakis....

A tear runs down Celeste's cheek, as she turns and walks away from the second devious man that she's loved so deeply...Victor looks broken as the woman leaves....he turns to Suga, and coldly says that she will regret this, before leaving himself....Suga simply shakes her head and rolls her eyes, but thinks to herself that she needs to get out of here before anyone figures out that she's the one who made both those attempts on Dorian's life, and she takes off....

-Mike tells Kate that Dorian survived the shooting and was conscious and talking...but the next attempt on her life changed things a bit.....he says that she'll probably survive, but so much action, especially for a woman in her later years, can take its toll....he says that if anything else happens to Dorian.....she may majorly take a turn for the worse....however, both Mike and Kate are SHOCKED when they approach Dorian's room and see that....EVERYTHING IS GONE!!!!!!!!

-Outside the hospital, Dorian is seen on an ambulance, still on her bed and hooked up to machines...Destiny is seen nearby in the ambulance...tied up! Crystal then comes out of the shadows and shuts the door as she takes a doctor's coat off, saying that whoever tried to kill Dorian had the right idea disguise-wise...she says that the custody battle is tomorrow, and by then....she'll be able to kill these two bitches...Crystal gets in the ambulance, and drives off!!!

Episode#378: Crystal's New Plan

-At Maggie's House, Julie hears a knock on the door....she goes to open it, and sees none other than Bo there! Bo tells her that he's sorry if this seems unexpected, and she may not want him here, but....he needs to speak to Hope. Julie smiles and gently tells Bo to come on in....Bo enters and tells Julie he's surprised she'll even speak to him...Julie assures Bo that she believes in Bo and Hope's love, and understands how they both feel...she tells Bo that Hope is in the living room with Pamela and Addie, and Bo heads to the living room as Maggie comes down the stairs, and Julie explains that Bo's here, and says that with this huge mess everywhere else in the family, maybe ONE Horton in Salem can have happiness!

-Sami promises Will that they'll fight the Galore's until the end, especially with her back....she is still shocked she even has a granddaughter, but she's not going to let her get away from them...Will says that she's been with child protective services for MONTHS...he wonders if she even remembers him! Sami tells him that she's just an infant, he still has plenty of time ahead with her....Will thanks his mother for her support as she leaves the Spears Mansion, and she is very glad to be re-building her relationship with her son....as she walks around Salem, she bumps into none other than Vivian!

-Victor blasts Suga for not BOTHERING to even CONTACT him in the past day...even if Dorian WAS responsible for Celeste's coma, Suga should have called him! Suga tells Victor that she didn't want to disturb his royal heiness, and she just wanted to get the job done....she did exactly what he said, none of this is her damn fault! Victor ignores this and continues to call Suga an idiot, as Suga says that he's the moron for jumping to conclusions....and if Dorian is dead, HE'S the one responsible for her death! Someone exclaims "WHAT?!" and both look to see Celeste!!!

-Destiny walks in to see Dorian, who is resting...she sits at her bedside and sighs, thanking her for giving her this information....she just hopes its not because of her that she got shot AND an air bubble injected into her IV....she says that she'll be forever grateful to Dorian, though, because once she gives this to Will and the authorities...he'll get Arianna back for sure, and Crystal will get tossed in jail....

-Kate asks if Crystal is OUT OF HER MIND, and she can't kill two more people...especially not in a hospital...hell, she could be accused of trying to kill Dorian those two other times, if she didn't! Crystal shakes her head and says she doesn't know who was behind that, but they had the right idea...Kate says that Destiny is Will's friend, and not to mention she doesn't like the whole idea of this now that she knows Crystal and her husband are the ones trying to take Arianna....Crystal snorts and says that Will is just some dirty teenager, he took advantage of her own daughter...and she tells Kate that she doesn't care if she helps her or not, but she IS killing Dorian and Destiny before that trial!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Bo walks into the living room, where Hope is with their toddler daughters....Pamela and Addie both run to greet Bo as he grins and hugs them, and Hope frowns when she sees him....she asks what he's doing here, and he says he's come to talk about their relationship....Hope says that there's NOTHING to talk about....and Bo tells her that he's NOT giving up, he still wants to salvage their marriage, and he's NOT signing those divorce papers!

-Vivian simply smirks at Sami and says that its good to see her running around town again....Sami tells her yes, despite what she and everyone else said, she finally proved that she DIDN'T kill Marlena! Vivian says that she knows now, and congratulates her....she says its just too bad that she is a murderor anyway...Sami snaps to Vivian that she didn't kill Stefano, and VIVIAN was behind that anyway! Vivian tells Sami to calm down, and remember who made it possible for her to find the whore that proved her innocent! Sami sighs and says yes, she knows...she just didn't like what she had to do to get there...Vivian says that it was months ago, now, and Stefano is dead....so they should just leave the past in the past, and move on. Sami agrees as she and Vivian both shake hands...however, unknown to them both, Valentine is watching!

-Victor asks Celeste what she's doing out of her room, and Celeste says that now that the drugs are fully out of her system and she has been checked up on by Alexandra, she is free to leave...but she did not like what she just heard! Victor tries to tell her its a misunderstanding...but Suga tells her no, its not! Suga tells Celeste that Victor hired her to kill Dorian Lord after he thought Dorian drugged Celeste into that coma....Celeste is stunned, as she looks at Victor, and says:

Celeste:Dahling.....I...can't believe this...how could you?

-Will thinks to himself that he hopes Destiny found something good on Crystal from that Dorian Lord woman....

- Kate asks Crystal how she's going to do this....and Crystal says that it may seem crazy, but she has a plan....she's going to drug both Destiny and Dorian, take them out in a large truck to the outskirts of Salem...and put poisonous gas in that truck until they die! Kate looks at Crystal, stunned at how she suddenly concocted this crazy plan, and calls her a lunatic! Crystal just groans and says the time is now as she runs off....Kate wonders what to do as she's crossed between exposing herself for murdering someone, or saving two people's lives and helping her family....

Episode#377: Destiny Puts the Pieces Together

-Will confusedly asks Sami how she knew about that...and Sami sighs and says thats the thing...she was there when it happened! She explains that was the night of the prison riot, and the night she escaped...she found him and Destiny in the car, and called Lucas, and he and Eugenia came down there and helped her get them out and get them safe...but afterwards, she told them not to tell him about her being involved because at the time he thought she murdered his grandma....Will tries to take yet ANOTHER shock in, saying he can't believe this...he looks to his mother, and tells her he has a question....he asks her....if it was just pure coincidence that she, Stefano DiMera, and him and Destiny were ALL on the same road that night!

-Faye and Nicole both stare at each other for a moment, stunned to see one another again...Nicole slowly tells Faye that she would have thought she would have vanished or run off by now, she can't believe she stuck around Salem after she vanished and Brandon left...Faye shakes her head and says no, she stuck around...for one, she was worried about her daughter...after lying about who her parents were and being shot she suddenly vanished...it didn't seem right. Nicole asks Faye why she didn't ever bother to LOOK for her, and Faye says that she couldn't exactly figure out that a psycho was holding her captive underneath a mansion! Nicole says whatever, she doesn't care now, and Nicole tries to leave but Faye grabs her and says:

Faye:Oh no you don't, missy, you and I still have alot to talk about....specifically, why you didn't even seem to care that when you pretended to be Tony and Marlena's daughter, you had no problem forgetting about me.

-Kate arrives down at the hospital, and sees Crystal in the waiting room, and asks what was so important that she had to get down here NOW...she doesn't want any contact with her, especially not after seeing her at the wedding and learning that she's the one who wants custody of Arianna...she says she still can't believe she worked with a woman as vile as her! Crystal ignores Kate's comments and tells her that someone KNOWS....someone knows all about them being behind Peter's death!

-Suga runs throughout the hospital, thinking that Dorian had better die, and that girl had better not be able to identify her as the one who put an air bubble in her IV...but she had a mask on the whole time...as Suga runs, she suddenly bumps right into Victor! He exclaims that its about DAMN time he found her!

-Destiny watches as Mike and his staff try to save Dorian....she wonders what the hell's going on...why is someone constantly trying to kill Dorian...she thinks that that nurse is also the one who shot her! She continues to wonder if the Galore's could be behind it...Destiny continues to be shocked at all of this, wondering why death is ALWAYS occurring in Salem, and also she remembers how Dorian told her that Crystal tried to KILL Tony DiMera for Stefano DiMera and Kate Roberts...she also remembers how Stefano is the guy that died after going off a cliff in that car accident with her and Will, and Kate is Will's GRANDMA! She tries to think back and recall if she heard ANYTHING about an attempted murder involving Tony....Destiny's eyes widen as she remembers hearing something on the news, and she says:

Destiny:Crystal killed Peter Blake!!!!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Sami flashes back to chasing Stefano around Salem to kill him for Vivian....however she snaps out of it, and thinks to herself that she hates lying to her son, but tells Will that yes...it was all coincidence. Will slowly nods and says its just weird...but he has more important things to focus on, like his daughter...Sami tells Will that he has to tell her ALL about her very first grandchild, she still can't believe he, at 16, has one...Will explains the situation with the Galore's, and Sami promises Will that they are going to get Arianna back...Will says he hopes so as he says that the custody trial is just in a few days, and he still doesn't know if he's prepared for what they could throw at him!

-Nicole groans and tells Faye that was a long time ago....but anyway, for one, she didn't care about Tony and Marlena themselves, she only wanted the money...Faye says that that doesn't make it any better, and she still had no problem leaving her true mother behind! Nicole looks at Faye with disgust and asks if she can blame her, and tells Faye that she was an AWFUL mother...she tells Faye that she just let Brandon and her get tortured for YEARS and YEARS by Paul...and even when Paul died, Faye still thought he was a good man no matter how much he abused her....and then its revealed she and Abe Carver had an affair, and she just took off from Salem...so don't get on her pedastal and start preaching to Nicole! Nicole stomps off as tears run down Faye's cheek as she remembers all the years she and her children were tortured by Paul Mendez....

-Destiny's eyes are wide with shock as she realizes that CRYSTAL killed Peter that night on the pier, it was all over the news.....she was going to kill Tony for Stefano and Kate but shot Peter instead, probably on accident...but still, she intended to kill SOMEONE....she thinks that she can't let her get ahold of Arianna, she just can't...she says that she has to tell someone, but she can't just leave Dorian here! Mike comes out and tells Destiny that he has news on Dorian!

-Kate asks Crystal who knows and HOW, and angrily asks if she TOLD someone as she clenches her fists....Crystal whispers NO, she has no CLUE how this woman knows, but she knows....her name is Dorian Lord....Kate says that was the woman who got shot at the Spears Mansion last night, and Crystal says that somehow she knows everything! Kate thinks back...vaguely remembering letting Dorian into the Kiriakis Mansion once or twice...but suddenly, both of them are distracted when they hear Mike say he has news on Dorian!

-Suga tells Victor that the job is finally done, she shot Dorian and then injected an air bubble into her IV....Victor calls her an IDIOT, and tells her that he's been trying to find her for a day now....Suga says that she did what he asked, and he tells her that he found out Dorian didn't do what he thought she did.....she's been KILLED for nothing! Suga is stunned!

-Mike tells Destiny that Dorian is alive, an air bubble was injected into her IV but they managed to save her just in the nick of time....he says that she can see her, but Dorian's asleep right now, and she needs to be careful...the woman is probably in a fragile state after TWO attempts on her life...Crystal, in the background, is shocked that someone tried to kill Dorian again and wonder what the hell's going on! Destiny tells Mike what little she knows about the nurse that injected that air bubble...Mike nods and says they'll try to find her...before Destiny can tell Mike about what Dorian told her, he gets an emergency call and walks off....Destiny goes inside Dorian's hospital room again....

-Crystal looks at Kate and tells her that Dorian is still alive and Destiny probably knows what they did now....she says that this is putting her ENTIRE life and that custody battle on the line....Kate says that maybe thats for the best, not that she wants to be exposed, but she would NEVER EVER have associated herself with Crystal if she had known what she was trying to do to HER family...Crystal tells Kate that they BOTH could go to death row! Kate says that if it means her grandson gets his daughter back, so be it...but then she realizes that it would put her budding friendship, or whatever she has with Tony on the line as well...but because of Anna, that might be best....Crystal says to Kate that there's only one option left: Kill Dorian AND Destiny!

Episode#376: Greta's Vow

-Brandon shrugs and tells Carrie thats just fine...he says now the time is to just move on from EVERYTHING thats happened over the past year...Carrie agrees and says its a chance for a new start for her, him, Sami, so many others...Carrie tells Brandon she has something to ask him....she asks Brandon if he'll move in with her!

-Lucas tells Sami to not talk about them like that...he loves Jan and Eugenia. Sami bursts out laughing and says that he's insane if he does...and not to mention, he can't just have two fiancee's and live in the same household like everything's just dandy and happy! Jan promises Sami that it won't be like that for long...Eugenia and her bony ass will be out the door soon...Eugenia agrees, but says that Lucas will be coming with her! Lucas exclaims thats ENOUGH or he may just leave altogether...Sami again laughs and says she's just here to see her son, and pulls Will into the kitchen as Lucas sighs at the two women in his life...

-Nicole asks what the hell that means, and Greta just shrugs, and Nicole tells her that her track record with men may not be the best but she loves Travis! Greta tells her she loved Eric...then she loved Lucas...then she loved Victor...then she loved Brady...then she loved Austin...then she loved Eric again...and now there's this Travis guy! Nicole tells her that at least she gets more than her, causing Greta to scowl....Nicole tells Greta that she won't have to deal with her much longer...because she made sure that Greta is being transferred to another mental home outside of Salem!

-Dorian gasps for air as Suga injects an air bubble into her IV...she thinks to herself that she'll be dead soon! Destiny asks Dorian what's happening, and looks to Suga and asks what the hell's going on! Suga says that there must be a problem and Destiny goes to yell for Mike, but Suga suddenly grabs her, and Destiny asks what she's doing and she needs to find Mike! Suga SHOVES Destiny back, into the wall, and takes off running, as Destiny gets up and screams:

Destiny:HELP! SOMEBODY HELP! SOMEONE JUST TRIED TO KILL DORIAN LORD!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Brandon is surprised at Carrie's request, and asks if she's serious.....Carrie nods, and she says that they've just gotten so close since Marlena's death and through the whole Sami ordeal....and with the recession, it'd be hard for him to find an apartment and pay for it....she just thought maybe they could just share this one. Brandon slowly nods and says he'd like that....so sure, he'll move in with her! Carrie is joyous at this and even hugs Brandon, the two happy to have a home!

-Sami and Will are in the kitchen of the Spears Mansion, and Sami tells Will that the real reason she came to this horrible place is to talk to him...she says that they need to re-establish their relationship...him running away and then her getting accused of murder didn't help things between them....Will agrees and sincerely apologizes for not believing her...he says its just weird....it was like she acted all horrible to him and then killed his grandma, then she said she didn't like usual....she was sent to jail but then escaped and went on the run...and now out of the blue, Nicole Walker comes back and proves to everyone that it really was this Stan guy...Sami understands and tells him its been a whirlwind, but now they can get through it...however first...she has something to tell him about the night he and that girl Destiny got into a car accident!

-Greta calls Nicole a liar, saying that no way in hell would a piece of trash like Nicole would be able to arrange something that big...everyone hates her....so Greta is staying right here in Salem, mental home or not! Nicole sighs and tells Greta that she doesn't want all these secrets anymore...so she found Steve and Kayla's number and called Steve...and told him everything! Greta's eyes go wide, and Nicole smirks and asks if she forgot about her dear old hidden daddy...but now he knows...he took it well enough, but was very shocked that Britta and him had a kid...they would've come back to Salem but couldn't because of some thing that happened over a month ago...so now, with Mike's permission already taken care of, they are transferring Greta to a mental institution out of state, near them....its a good place...Greta calls Nicole a little BITCH....saying that she never wanted that revealed! Nicole tells Greta that it was time...and now, she's telling Greta goodbye....and it makes her so, SO glad that she never has to see her face again....Greta snaps to Nicole that she started ALL of this...their rivalry, and Nicole says she knows, but she never did what Greta did....Greta tortured her...and the fact that she's not anywhere near Salem, near her home, will make her feel so good....she can wake up everyday with someone who loves her, and can be free to go wherever she pleases, and not take part in crazy baby switches or getting shot trying to escape...she's free now, free from her, free from Jan, free from her past....Greta snorts and says how lovely, but then goes on to say:

Greta:You may think its all behind you now, Nicole...but its not...something is out there that will catch up to you....or maybe even that baby switch will, because I know you don't plan on exposing good ole Jan's secret! You just keep your rose-colored glasses on, thinking your life with this new Travis guy will just be happy and dandy all the time. But know this, Nicole Walker: Just when you think you're safe, just when you think no one is out to get you, just when you think that you can be comfortable, just when you think you're out of the woods....I'll be there. Just when you think you don't have to turn around every two seconds, I'll be there. If you think this is the last time you'll see me, you really are stupid.....don't think you've seen the last of me, Nicole Walker, not for one second. I'll return stronger than ever....I'm Greta Von Amberg, and I. WILL. BE. BACK. So remember that when you have your fantasies of happiness.

Nicole slowly looks at her psychotic rival....a woman originally kind, but they hated each other instantly as they fought over a man, the woman she blackmailed out of town with her patenity secret, the woman that was turned into a psycho after being infected with rabies, a woman who held her and another woman in a Secret Room, switched two babies, put Celeste in a coma, and stabbed another woman....Nicole finally simply says "Goodbye, Greta." before leaving....

Nicole walks out into the hospital, shuddering at her final confrontation with Greta...Greta continues to sit locked up in her room, and looks around, saying:

Greta:Oh yes, Salem has definitely not seen the last of Greta Von Amberg...and when I'm back...heads will roll....

-Nicole continues walking through the hospital, trying to leave it entirely, as she tries to re-assure herself that she's never going to see crazy Greta again and can just leave her behind, she never even has to think about her again....but suddenly she bumps into someone....and its revealed to be.....FAYE!!! Nicole looks at her shock....seeing her mother for the first time since she was in the hospital a year ago!

-Destiny screams for someone to help her as Mike runs in with some nurses at his side, and she says that a nurse was just in here injecting something into Dorian's IV, and suddenly she couldn't breathe...and the nurse just took off running! Mike nods and says he has to get to work, and as the nurses force Destiny to step outside, she says that Dorian can't die!

Some general casting updates have been announced as the ins and outs continue!

IN:

Lisa Ray, who plays lawyer Lisa Raye on SONOP soap "STEAM", shall crossover to LIS for a special guest stint starting this week when the trial for little Arianna Roberts is held. "I am so glad that ML(former Co-EP/Co-HW of LIS, EP/HW of STEAM) let me bring Lisa over for some episodes....my DEEP appreciation goes out to him! And it will be fun having Lisa here for several episodes...she's definitely a lawyer who brings it to the table!" Tara Smith says

OUT:

Julianne Morris(Greta Von Amberg) will last air this week! The recurring player, who's been off/on with LIS since 2006, shall end her run on Monday after one last confrontation with Nicole before she's shipped off to a sanitarium out of state. "Greta has played such a big role on LIS since her return on its spin-off....she went from a rather dull heroine to a crazy psycho, and has pulled off so many schemes....stabbing people, holding people captive in secret rooms, switching babies, drugging people into coma's....finally she's been knocked off her high horse and locked up in a nice padded room....she needs a rest. However, lets just say we haven't seen the last of Miss Von Amberg....not by a long shot!" Tara tells fans

Janet Zarish(Lea Zaslow) last aired on May 26th after Jan paid her to get out of town. "Lea was always a minor character...just intended to be a player in the Secret Room/Baby Switch...and now that the SR storyline is over, she really didn't have a point...but one thing we played on was Lea didn't really like all these schemes, and she knows about the switch....so we could see her again someday."

Episode#375: Air Bubble

-Brandon and Carrie are seen walking into a place....a place thats revealed to be....the old apartment complex that Alan Harris burned down almost three years ago! Its entirely rebuilt, and Carrie walks into the apartment where she and Lucas lived when it went up in flames....she says wow, its been so long...she looks around, and Brandon says that he heard about how that Harris guy burned it all down....Carrie nods, and says she's excited to be living here again....it just brings back memories of when she had a miscarriage, and was with Lucas!

-At the Spears Mansion, Will is outside after trying to unsuccessfully stop Jan and Eugenia's arguing, and Lucas arrives with baby Josh...Will tells him that he's so glad he's here, and tells him all about Jan and Eugenia's fight! Lucas sighs and rushes inside, where Jan and Eugenia continue to argue over Lucas...Lucas tells the screaming women that thats ENOUGH, and Jan tells Lucas that she's just trying to convince Eugenia that SHE is Lucas's soulmate, and Eugenia says she's just trying to stop Jan from slinging out all these insults and declarations! Lucas asks what part of "getting along" don't they understand, but then a voice in the doorway says:

Sami:Well, Lucas, it looks like the only thing thats changed in my time away is that you now have two crazy fiancee's instead of one!

Will, Lucas, Jan, and Eugenia turn to see Sami standing in the doorway!

-At the psychtriactic ward in the hospital, Greta continues to sit in her straitjacket, with her head down as she thinks about everything...Eric, Jan, the Secret Room, the baby switch, and...Nicole. She wonders how on Earth Nicole could have survived that gunshot...and suddenly she hears "Hello Greta." and looks up to see...NICOLE!

-Destiny thanks Dorian and says she just needs this information badly, for her friend and a little baby's sake...Crystal listens at the doorway after Mike leaves so they can talk...and Crystal thinks to herself that this old bitch better not know about her killing Peter...Dorian looks at Destiny and says:

Dorian:Your friend....Miss Crystal Galore...is a murderor.

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Brandon tells Carrie he's so sorry...and she doesn't have to live here if she doesn't want to...Carrie says no, its fine, that was years ago and anywhere is great in this economy...its just she was engaged to Lucas at the time, but had feelings for Austin and a child in her womb...then she lost it after that crazy fire, and grew close to Austin again...Lucas broke up with her and she and Austin married, and left town...but then he cheated on her. Brandon then says:

Brandon:You know...you've told me about that, but have never talked really in-depth about it....are you sure you don't wanna talk about it?

Carrie:No, I'm fine, its just....Austin and I were so in love, you know? Married for about a year...having so much fun in another country...we even wanted to start a family, but then suddenly he started sleeping with that Class A skank for pretty much all of last year...

Brandon:Did you know the woman?

Carrie:Yes...little bitch.

Brandon:Would you mind telling me her name?

Carrie:I...don't think thats a good idea...she's a worthless bitch and I've tried my damndest to never even get in contact with her again...and it'd probably ruin too many lives if I told anyone her name....

-Eugenia groans and says this is just great, ANOTHER ex-fiancee of Lucas's back! Sami smiles and tells Eugenia that she can talk about Jan that way but not her...they go way back, even back to when she was with Brandon! Eugenia puts on a fake smile right back and says she remembers very clearly. Jan asks Sami what the hell she's doing here, and Sami says she's coming to visit Lucas and her son now that the charges against her have been dropped...Will and Lucas both say thats great as Will hugs her and again apologizes for not believing her for so long, as Jan sarcastically says that this day is just getting better and better...now the woman who murdered her mother is free as a bird! Eugenia says that Jan didn't even KNOW Marlena, and Jan says that Eugenia doesn't even KNOW that situation at all! Sami laughs and looks at Lucas and tells him that she can tell he's going to have a wonderful time with these two bimbo's...

-Greta asks Nicole what she's doing here, and she doesn't want porno filth like her in her room....Nicole says thats ironic, because she never wanted princess filth like HER in that hell hole she called her room for months....Nicole tells Greta that she came to see her one last time, in all her glory at her new home...Greta laughs and tells Nicole she should have died when she shot her...Nicole tells Greta that thanks to Travis, she's alive and well....Greta raises an eyebrow and says:

Greta:Well....I'm sure that your new little lover won't last long...one way or another.

-Destiny's eyes widen and asks Dorian if she's serious...but then tells her that if she means the "murder" of Marlena Evans about five years ago, she turned up alive later on....she says she wouldn't be surprised if Crystal is a murderor, but still...Dorian shakes her head and says not that...this is as recent as the beginning of the year...Destiny says that Benard and Crystal were well settled in Salem by then, and asks Dorian WHO she killed! Outside, Crystal is beginning to get anxious and breathing heavily, and whispers that she has to call Kate...she walks off as Suga approaches Dorian's room and says the time is now....while Mike's not around...she has to kill her, even if that girl is in there! Suga is still in a nurses outfit and looks at her syringe, and says that she can just inject an air bubble into Dorian's IV and be done with it. Back inside the room, Dorian says:

Dorian:Well, you see...Stefano DiMera and Ka-

Suga(walking in):Excuse me, Mrs.Lord, I need to perform some simple check ups...so the girl will have to leave.

Destiny:No! We're talking about something VERY important here!

Suga:I'm sorry, miss lady, but you'll have to leave....

Dorian:She needs to stay...this is a matter of life and death.

Suga:Oh, fine!

Dorian:Anyway, now...Stefano DiMera, I'm sure you know of the man, and Kate Roberts...the ex-wife of Victor Kiriakis....hired Crystal to kill Tony DiMera...

Destiny:WHAT?! But...Tony didn't die, right? I mean...I don't know the guy but I think Will and I saw him about a month ago...

Dorian:Oh no, he's alive...but she did kill a man, and that man is-

Suga stands by her IV, ignoring the conversation, and...injects the air bubble into her IV! As Dorian is talking, suddenly she's interrupted and her hand goes to her neck as she mutters out that she can't breathe...Dorian falls back as she gasps for breathe and both Suga and Destiny watch!!!

Episode#374: Nicole's Advice

-Laura tells Anna that she really is fine...Anna snorts and tells Laura that she's been like that and has seen many others like that...something's on Laura's mind...and she says that if she doesn't mind, she'd like to know what...Laura slowly explains to Anna all about Robin...and says that she wants to take the fight to Robin, but she's not sure how!

-At the hospital, Destiny arrives and approaches Mike, and asks him how Dorian is doing...he tells her that in the past hour or two, she has finally started coming to...Suga, disguised in a nurse outfit, watches and says not for long...as Crystal also arrives at the hospital and eavesdrops!

-Jan returns to the Spears Mansion, and runs into Eugenia...she coldly asks her where her son and fiancee are, and Eugenia says that HER fiancee is out with his son...Jan says thats excellent, doing some bonding...because soon he, Josh, Bentley, and Jan will all be a family...Eugenia groans and tells Jan to just shut her mouth if she's going to talk like that, and Jan says its true, and Eugenia can soon get her bony ass out of her house and out of Salem for good...Eugenia tells Jan that Lucas loves HER too, and an argument breaks out between the two...but Will finally comes in, gets between them both, and yells:

Will:Okay, thats ENOUGH DAMNIT!

-Lucas is a bit startled at Nicole and asks if she really just said that...Nicole tells him that he heard her! Lucas says that he thought she would've acted a bit different, knowing Jan so well since Jan's rape in 2001, then getting her to "kill" Victor, and not to mention everything else and being locked up in a Secret Room with her for months...Nicole tells Lucas that Jan is...sort of a friend, sort of an enemy of hers...and while she likes her...she thinks it would be best if Lucas used his brain and scooped Eugenia up in his arms, and that baby, and just took off RUNNING! Lucas says that he loves Jan and also can't just do that to the mother of his child, he couldn't even do that to Sami, and can't do it to Jan...Nicole blurts:

Nicole:Okay, Lucas, if thats why you aren't carrying on your...thing with Eugenia, then I think you need to know that baby Josh is NOT yours!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Anna laughs and tells Laura that taking down people is easy...she's done it herself, to MANY people....she tells Laura to just try to slowly find out Robin's weaknesses and prey on them....she has to outsmart that bitch before Robin pulls another fast one on her! Laura says she just doesn't know WHAT Robin's weaknesses are...its like the ONLY thing she cares about in this world is Jeremy! Anna laughs and tells Laura that she doesn't know Robin Jacobs, but from what she just learned...Robin's weakness may be none other than Mike himself...she tells Laura to think about that before leaving...

-Mike takes Destiny into Dorian's hospital room...Dorian looks around, and Destiny asks how she's feeling...Dorian responds that she's feeling well enough....Destiny says that she knows she just got shot, but she really needs to talk to her about Crystal Galore...there isn't much time left before the custody battle...Dorian thinks to herself that she KNOWS it was Victor who tried to kill her...so now she can get rid of him...so she tells Destiny fine, she'll tell her everything right now!

-Jan tells Will to stay out of his, its none of his business! Will says that two of his almost-step mom's are fighting like hell in his own home...its damn well his business! Jan says that if he wants this to remain his home he'll BACK OFF, and Eugenia orders Jan not to talk to Will like that...he's going through enough himself! Jan says that this is *HER* home and she'll talk to anyone however she wants to...she never even wanted Will here anyway, she doesn't want Sami Brady's spawn in her house! Eugenia says:

Eugenia:I hate Sami too, for the record, but Will is your nephew and was going to be your step-son!

Jan:Sadly, he IS going to be my step-son...I AM going to have Lucas, no matter what! And as for this brat over here, well, lets just say that the minute Lucas and I get back together...him, his whore, and his own screaming devil child will be OUT of this mansion...right out on the street with you!

Will:You will NOT, and I mean NOT, speak of Destiny and Arianna like that! Arianna is my baby girl who I've been fighting for almost a year to get back, she's just a little infant...you don't see me spewing things about Bentley!

Jan:Because Bentley is a wonderful little boy from two soulmates: Shawn Brady and me!

Eugenia:So even when he's dead, you have this weird fascination with Shawn, but also claim to have this undying love for Lucas!

Jan:You can love more than one person at a time! Shawn IS my soulmate, but Lucas....I love Lucas with every inch of my heart!

Will:You all are hopeless...I'm so sick of living in this crazy mansion!

Jan and Eugenia continue to argue as Will stomps off....

-Lucas raises an eyebrow and asks Nicole what she means by THAT....Nicole suddenly realizes that she slipped up, and thinks to herself that she could reveal this all now, she has nothing to lose....but she won't. She tells Lucas that she just meant that she knows Jan...and they should both know that she's still a psycho...and for all they know, she may still have Shawn's sperm safely stowed away somewhere and impregnated herself with his baby again! Lucas laughs and tells her thats ridiculous...Jan would never go that far, especially since she has Bentley...Nicole tells him she still feels that he should just take Eugenia and run, because Eugenia is the saner out of the two women....Lucas says that he sorta feels like that....but he also just can't stop loving Jan, there's something about her....he'll just have to figure it out himself. He takes baby Josh and thanks Nicole for the advice....and he soon leaves, as Nicole sighs and says:

Nicole:I don't know what to do...I can't keep anymore crazy secrets like this...meeting Travis has made me want to be a new person....but then again, I don't even want to get involved with that Jan Spears ever again....I should just stay out of it, and I pray that Jan never gets me involved in any of her schemes again, or that she doesn't carry on this baby switch for too long....

Nicole sighs as she shuts the door....

Episode#373: Jan Visits Greta

Greta asks what she wants....and Jan says she just came to see a psycho finally where she belongs...but she also came for something else...Jan then asks:

Jan:I want to know why you didn't tell Lucas that you took baby Josh from Eugenia...

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Laura tells Anna she's so sorry, and Anna tells her its fine but says that she thinks she recognizes her from somewhere...Laura tells Anna that she's Laura Horton, she thinks she saw her at Marlena's funeral last year...Anna says thats right, and asks how she is...Laura says she's fine, but Anna says that she doesn't look fine!

-Destiny agrees and says that she has been planning to do that, she just has been trying to recooperate from everything...Will says he understands, he says that this place is in even more chaos than before now...his dad's crazy ex-fiancee is back, his mom DIDN'T kill his grandma and everything's back to normal with her, he has a brother, a psycho was holding two women captive underneath him for months...its all so weird...Destiny nods, and tells Will that incase Dorian DOESN'T have anything on Crystal like she said...she doesn't want to bring him into this...so she wants to go down to the hospital alone!

-Nicole slowly asks Lucas what he's doing here...and she says this is quite a surprise...Lucas tells her that as crazy as this may seem, he needs her advice....Nicole says that he wants advice from his ex-wife who was paid to marry him and turned him back into an alcoholic...Lucas says it really is crazy, but he really needs to talk to her...its about Jan and Eugenia. Nicole then groans and says:

Nicole:Oh LORD...why the hell does everything in my life have something to do with Jan Spears? But fine, come in.

-Greta looks up at Jan and bursts out laughing, saying that Jan really shouldn't be pursuing it, she's lucky Greta DIDN'T tell Lucas about Jan's budding scheme...Jan snaps that it was Greta's idea, and Greta tells her that if she really wants to know...she never thought Jan would get out of the Secret Room...but incase she did, she pulled this so she'd have a back up plan to make Jan's life miserable...Jan says that her life is getting better and better, she has a SON and soon will have Lucas back...Greta continues to smugly laugh and she then says:

Greta:Oh, for now, things are great....but you see Jan, I'm going to let you live out your little fantasy life now...with little baby Josh as your son, Eugenia thinking her son is dead, and you and Lucas can have all the happiness in the world...but just when you think your safe, just when you think that this won't creep up and haunt you, just when you think I am out of the picture....I'll come back and blow you right out of the water....I'll tell Lucas and Eugenia EVERYTHING about how I switched Bradley and Josh, and about how you are passing off Josh as your own son...

Jan is silent for a moment, and Greta just grins, telling Jan that even locked up...she holds all the cards...Jan tells Greta that she had better not ever mess with her again, or she'll regret it even more than she is now...she says that even if she DID blab about the whole baby switch, no one would believe someone in a padded room! Greta tells Jan that she has Lea, and not to mention Nicole...Jan tells her that she took care of Lea, much to Greta's surprise, and that Nicole will only say what Jan wants her to say...Jan tells Greta that she has NO power, her reign of terror is over...she tauntingly waves to Greta, wishing her a happy life in the crazy house, before leaving....

-Will tells Destiny no, Arianna is HIS daughter and he's going to do whatever it takes to get her back and get rid of Crystal AND Benard...and Destiny says that JUST incase this doesn't turn out like they hope, then she needs to do it alone...Destiny and Will argue, but finally Will obliges, as Destiny heads for the hospital...

-Lucas walks in and sits baby Josh down, and he tells Nicole that since she knows Jan better than most people...thats why he came to her...he explains that he's really caught between Jan and Eugenia...and he doesn't know what to do now that the whole thing with Greta and the Secret Room came out...he loves Jan and Eugenia both so much...and now he has this new son with Jan...he just doesn't have a clue what to do...Nicole looks at Josh and flashes back to the baby switch and Jan's real baby dying in childbirth..she looks at Lucas and says:

Nicole:Okay, Lucas, in all honesty...you need to take that baby, take Eugenia, take Will, and whoever the hell else and get as FAR away from that looney tune Jan as fast as you can!

*Life in Salem Opening*

-Greta slowly asks Eric what he's doing here...and Eric tells her that he knows all about her crazy schemes now, its ALL over the news, and he learned that the justice system already decided she was too insane to go to prison at all, so she may be here for the rest of her life....Greta laughs and says she doubts that, she'll be back...Eric then goes on to ask if locking Nicole up in the Secret Room was because of him...and if stabbing Alexis Kefer was because of him, too!

-Destiny wonders if she should tell Will about what Dorian told her....she sighs and thinks to herself maybe she should....she looks at Will and says she has to tell him something....he asks her what....and she slowly says that before Dorian got shot....she was gonna tell her something about Crystal....something that could affect the custody trial!

-Sami and Brandon share a hug at learning that the charges have been dropped....Carrie slowly approaches, seeing the hug, and is silent for a brief moment before Sami pulls back and then hugs Carrie...telling her all about how the charges have been dropped!

-Lea's face goes VERY pale at seeing Jan right on her doorstep....she asks Jan how she's here...Jan laughs and asks if she hasn't heard the news yet....she escaped the Secret Room, stopped Lucas and Eugenia's wedding, and exposed that crazy Greta for the psycho bitch she is....Lea slowly says that can't be.....Jan tells her its true....and tells Lea that now, it may be time for her to go to the slammer as well!

-Greta slowly says yes....it all goes back to him...she and Nicole feuded for quite some time, but Nicole forced her out of town, and thats why she went after her and Jan...she says that as for Alexis....yes, it was because she slept with him...and NO ONE should sleep with him! Eric tells her he's confused...he thought they ended whatever they had YEARS ago! Greta says they did, but still....she wouldn't dare let any such trash sleep with such a great man like him! Eric stares at his ex....from top to bottom, seeing just how psychotic she is....and asks what happened to her....she says that she started seeing things alot more clearly...she sees that she had to take drastic measures to rid the world of Nicole Walker and Jan Spears...and she also sees that...maybe...he was the right one for her! Eric tells her that two years ago, he would've been so happy to hear that....but now.....just no....he tells Greta he's over her, and she should be over him...its ridiculous that ALL of this happened because of their relationship! A tear slowly runs down Greta's cheek and she tells them maybe there can still be a chance for them...Eric slowly approaches Greta...remembering the happy times they had together, and the sad times...when they broke up...but when they ran into each other again in 2006 and almost got back together but he also grew close to Nicole again before leaving town after he and Greta severed their links to each other once again....he slowly leans in...and he and Greta share a kiss....but he pulls back, as she asks him why he did that...and he looks at his insane ex-girlfriend once again and says:

Eric:Goodbye, Greta....I'm sorry, but goodbye.

Eric leaves.....as Greta watches one of the very few men she has ever loved walk out on her....

-Jan tells Lea that she wants her to PAY for letting her baby die...Lea tells her there was nothing she could do when it comes to that! Jan says that she could have taken proper care of her, and Lea says she DID, and she even helped Greta give her that other baby...which she assumes that Jan is passing off as her own now! Jan grins and nods....she tells Lea she hates her so much and blames her for not getting her out of that Secret Room and not saving her son...and Lea tells her that she could always tell everyone who's baby that really is! Jan shrugs and says thats why she's willing to let her off the hook....Jan then goes on to say:

Jan:I will pay you $5,000 dollars if you get out of Salem and never come back.

Lea:W-W-wait....really? Are you being serious?

Jan:Yes....I am....

Lea:I-I don't know...I still don't feel right about this whole baby switch fiasco...

Jan:Okay let me put it this way: You take the money...or else I won't hesitate to kill you in the most gruesome way possible.

Lea's eyes widen...and she closes her eyes as she reluctantly says fine...Jan says excellent as she takes out a check, and gives it to Lea...Lea says she'll be out of town by the end of the day....Jan says good....she lets out a very devilish laugh as she turns, walking away...and Lea shakes her head at all of this, and Jan knows that now no one can expose Josh as Eugenia's son....
