S.T.E.A.M.

The Blue Note

Dondre gloats, knowing about Kevin and Lauren's one night stand.

Lauren

"Do you always eavesdrop on people's private conversations?"

Dondre

"I was just here kicking it and was at the right place at the right time to hear what I needed to hear."

Kevin

"What do you mean it runs in the family?"

Dondre

"I'll keep that to myself for now. It's funny how things turn out. Looks like when Sharan gets back, there won't be no happy reunion for you two. She's all mine homie. Thanks for handing her to me on a silver platter."

Kevin reaches around Lauren and punches Dondre. Lauren then pushes Kevin back away from Dondre

"Kevin please don't do this."

Kevin

"He's taking everything away from me. Now he knows about our sleeping together. And you heard what he said, he's going to tell Sharan."

Lauren

"It doesn't matter. Daniel wasn't here and Sharan was still missing when we had sex."

Kevin

"I can't let Dondre keep one upping on me. That's all he has been doing lately."

Lauren

"I am going to talk to Dondre. I think you should get out of here and cool down before you make things worse."

Kevin

"It doesn't get worse than this. I've lost Sharan." He says as he looks at Dondre. "I wonder what he meant when he said it runs in the family."

Lauren

"That was an odd statement he made. Why don't you go talk to Karim and ask him about it while I talk to Dondre. I'll call you later." Kevin nods his head, gives another look to Dondre and leaves. Lauren walks up to Dondre

"So what are you going to do?"

Dondre

"Nothing. I'm just here chilling."

Lauren

"You know Kevin and I slept together. You and Kevin are enemies. You know a secret about your enemy. So again I ask you what are you going to do about it?"

Dondre

"I'm not going to black mail anyone if that's what you mean. I'm just messing with Kevin's head that's all."

Lauren

"That's a pretty rotten thing to do."

Dondre

"You don't know what I've had to go through. Kevin and his punk ass pops railroaded me into jail, for a crime I did not commit."

Lauren

"Actually, I do know where you are coming from. Mona is behind all of this. She set you up just like she set Chris up."

Dondre

"Man, I don't want to think about it. I'm not going to say nothing. I could never player hate. But when Sharan comes back, I am going to do what ever it takes to be with her and if I have to use my pimp card than that's how it's gone have to go down." Dondre finishes his beer and leaves The Blue Note.

Lauren, speaking out loud, "I can't tell Daniel I slept with Kevin. I can't break his heart. He could relapse back into his old ways." She says wiping a tear from her face.

"Why are you here DC?"

"Why do you got to be so mean girl? Let me in. I know you got something good in here to eat." He says brushing right past her. Pat slams the door .

Pat

'You got a lot of nerve showing your greasy face here. What is Miss Jenkins going to say about this?"

DC

"Here we go again. This Miss Jenkins. Who gives a damn about Miss Jenkins?" Sister Patterson grabs her bible and slaps DC in the face with it.

Pat

"Don't know one talk about Miss Jenkins you simple Bastard. Got me cussing. Where is my Holy Water?" She says turning around to begin to search for it.

She wraps her arms around him and the kiss gets more passionate, that is until she realizes what she is doing and pulls back, wiping her mouth.

DC

"That's what I am talking about girl. "

Pat slaps DC again

"What's is the matter with you? How do you know we are alone?"

DC

"Because I know you. You act differently when it's just me and you. I haven't forgot nothing about you. I drive you crazy don't I girl?"

Pat

"Look DC, I told you don't start no mess. What happened between us all those years ago is a closed chapter. I have repented those sins and I don't want to go back there. I've paid dearly for our affair."

DC

"What do you mean? Abe knows?"

Pat

"No. God punished me by talking our child away from us."

"How did you get that sex tape of me and her any way?"

Rufus

"Never mind about that. I have my ways. Now why don't you be a good boy and pull it out so I can see it. It looks so big on the video."

Bryan

"No rainbow's here. Get the hell out of her!"

Rufus

"Please I beg you. I am living out of my car. I have no gas money. And the last time I tried to eat I got into a fight with that crazy Sister Patterson and went to jail. I am sexually frustrated, please lend a helping hand!"

Bryan, reaching into his pocket

"Here's a hundred dollars. I'll go cook you up something real fast."

Gilbert

"I really don't know Sabryn. How soon are you getting married?"

Sabryn

"In a few weeks. You don't sound to happy about it?"

Gilbert

"I just don't want to see you get hurt again. You are tying a lot into this wedding. Are you sure you're not rushing things?"

Sabryn

"I don't think I am. I don't want to give birth to my child and not be married. I want to give this baby a real family Gilly. And besides, we don't have much time. This baby will be here in a matter of a few weeks."

Gilbert

"Wow, time flew by. I can't imagine you being a mother. Are you ready?"

Rufus

"I don't get into all of that."

Alexis

"It's quite simple. You will be my puppet. You will go to Divine Design and represent me. You will represent my intrest in my company. You would be the prefect person to do so because you hate Natalia as much as I do. My lawyer has drawn up some papers for you to sign. "

Lisa

"They basically state that until Ms. Jones is free again, you will represent her interest at Divine Design with intentions of taking back Natalia's 49 percent."

Ladonna

"Is he ok?"

Karim

"He's just needs some time off. And with Ivory posting a loss of 22 percent of revenue last quarter, he is just unable to put in his all right now. The economy is in trouble, borderline recession and Ivory needs to reorganize to reflect the latest market slump."

"Nat, I am so sorry."

Natalia

"Well you better be. I put everything I had into that fashion show. I've waited all my life for that moment and you took that away from me. I will never forgive you for this."

Jodie

"Nat, please. I want to make thing right. I want to make amends. I can't go out like this. I know you had a lot wrapped up in this. But please, I can do this. Give me another shot."

Natalia

"You must be flipping crazy. Second chance? Have you seen the tabloids. My face is on all of them with sub titles such a Loser, set-up, disaster, those are the headlines Jodie. I am the joke of the fashion world. I make my first grand foray and it blows up in my face. Our stock is trading at an all time low. I failed."

Jodie

"No No No. We can do this again. We can do it over. And it will go right. "

Ria barge into the office.

"She's right."

Jodie, turning to Ria

"I've been looking for you."

Ria

"Excuse me?"

Jodie

"I want to know why you went to Cleveland with Jenn?"

Natalia

"What? What is it with Jenn and this fashion shows and Ria what do you have to do with this?"

Jodie

"Oh, you're home girl didn't tell you did she? She was in on it with Jenn. Ria helped Jennifer bring my pimp back to Pasadena. That's why I walked out the fashion show. Because Jenn threaten to expose the truth to the tabloids."

Natalia

"I can't believe this. And Ria, you are my girl. I can't believe you helped Jenn do this.'

Ria

"Wait a damn minute! First of all I didn't know what the hell Jenn was up to. All she said was she wanted to dig up some dirt on Jodie. I had no idea it was this serious."

Natalia

"What? You should have stopped her before she even tried. You knew I was doing a big fashion show. You were in it. Why would you help Jennifer take my dreams away from me? You knew how much I wanted this. To beat Sabryn and Alexis, and show them I am a force to be reckoned with. Show them that I am talented and that I do have what it tales to compete with them. But no! All you bitches played me."

Ria

"You say what? I know you didn't"

Jodie

"Yes she did. And you ought to be a shamed of yourself doing your good friend like that."

Ria

"Bitch you don't know me like that."

Jodie

"Whatever" looking at Natalia "I promise, I will make this up to you Natalia." Jodie leaves as Ria is still standing in her office. Natalia wipes tears from her eyes.

Ria

"I'm going to excuse you talking crazy girl. You're 6 months pregnant. It's those crazy hormones. When was the last time you got you some girl?"

Natalia

"Ria, I mean it, get the hell out. I can't believe you did this to me."

Ria stands there, looking at her home girl stare out the window. Ria, finally get the picture and leaves Natalia's office. "I really fu(ked up this this time" Ria says to her self.

The Blue Note

Kevin is sitting at the bar drinking a beer. Lauren walks in and begins talking to Pierre until she notices Kevin sitting at the bar.

Lauren

"Excuse me Pierre. "

She says walking away over to Kevin. She grabs a seat next to him at the bar.

Kevin, feeling uneasy being around her, having memories of sleeping with her

"Lauren, it's been a while. How is Daniel doing?"

Lauren

"He's doing great. He's finally turned over a new leaf. He's becoming his own man. He's cut all ties with Tyler."

Kevin

"I am glad to hear. It's a shame it took such a tragic ordeal to finally bring Daniel to his senses. One minute he is dead and the next he's not. Didn't Chris Douglas get put to death for stabbing Daniel?

Lauren

"As painful as it is to admit it, it's true."

Kevin

"How did all this happen?"

Lauren

"Some crazy woman, Mona faked his death by cloning Daniel. It was Daniel's clone that was stabbed to death."

Kevin

"Cloned? This Mona person really is crazy. "

Lauren

"You do know that Daniel saw Sharan while he was held captive in Mona's Dungeon?"

Kevin

"What? Why didn't know one tell me this sooner?"

Lauren

"Mona is the one who kidnapped Sharan. Mona set up Dondre just like she set up Chris."

Kevin

"But no one seems to know where this infamous Mona is."

Lauren

"I am sure she and Sharan will be found. And speaking of, Kevin we need to talk about that night?"

Kevin

"I think we do. We have not spoke on it since."

Lauren

"What do you think we should do about this?"

Kevin

"Lauren it was a mistake. You love Daniel and I love Sharan. We don't need to let what happened between us change any of that."

Lauren

"I hope we can still remain good friends."

Kevin

"Of course we can." He says as he hugs her, and to his surprise Dondre is standing right behind Lauren.

Dondre

"It must really run in the family. The so called self righteous Williams family. A family full of cheaters. It always starts with a one night stand." Lauren and Kevin are stunned that Dondre has just learned about that one night stand…….

Mona Island

Mona begins walking away from Sharan, not wanting to let her see her more vulnerable side. Sharan follows her

"Don't walk away from me. Talk to me please."

Mona stops and turns around to look at her

"For what? You're just trying to set me up. I'm not stupid."

Sharan

"Not at all. I am not trying to set you up. I am trying to help you."

Mona

"Why?"

Sharan

"Isn't this what you want? You want me to care for you. You want to me to love you. When I show some affection, you question it."

Mona

"Are you starting to care for me?"

Sharan

"I am."

Mona

"Then why don't you come with me?"

Sharan

"Where are w e going?"

Mona, putting her hand out

"We are going to my garden."

Sharan

"You have a garden here? So you have been here before?"

Mona

"It is called Mona Island. I have all kinds of surprises here."

Sharan

"I don't know about this. I have heard roars out there in the jungle."

Mona

"It's no danger involved. You have to trust me sweet lady. I would never hurt you."

Sharan

"Do we have to go? It is getting dark."

Mona

"I won't let nothing happen to my princess. Do you trust me?"

Sharan, against her better judgment, but knowing this will please Mona

"Fine." Mona grabs Sharan's hand and they into the jungle….

Lavender Hill,

Ty's Mansion

Ria is ringing the doorbell. The maid opens the door

"Get out my hoe." Ria says brushing right past her.

"Jenny!, Jenny get that ass down here. We gots to talk."

Maid

"Who are you?"

Ria

"Ya momma"

Jenn comes rushing down the stairs.

Jenn

"Ria, what is going on?"

Ria

"I want some answers Jenny? What is really going on between you and Jodie? She was about to get slapped at the fashion show talking to me crazy. I am not involved in any of this and you better tell her that."

Jenn

"Ria, please, it's not that serious."

Ria

"Girl you are tripping. Jenny, I have to work with her. I am not involved in any type of feud between the two of you. I got my 99 problems and that bitch aint one of them."

Jenn, not wanting to argue

"Ok Ria. I will tell Jo Ho."

Ria

"Uhm Hmm, where fine ass Santino at? I want us to go out."

Jenn, feeling a bit jealous, remembering she kissed Santino back in Cleveland

"He's not here. He's with Ty, as usual."

Ria

"A street boy. I like it. I'ma have to find that papi."

Jenn

"You really like him like that?"

Ria

"Yea girl. Why you got a problem with that?"

"That's a good question" They both hear and turn around to see Karl with a grin on his face.

Westwood Park

Lauren and Daniel's

Santino gets out the limo. Pulling out his gun, and rushes over to where Ty has fallen off the porch. Ty stands back up and wipes blood from his lip.

Ty

"What the hell is the matter with you?"

Santino, arriving on the scene

"Boss you ok?"

Ty

"Ask Daniel is he ok?"

Santino aims his gun at Daniel as Lauren walks up from behind Daniel and pleads with Santino

"Please don't do nothing stupid!" She says with tears rolling down her face.

Ty

"It's cool Tino. Put that away."

Daniel, to Ty

"It's because of you why I was on my death bed for months. Do you know what kind of crazy things the psycho Bitch Mona did to me? She was the one who shot me!! I didn't try to commit suicide. Then while I was in the hospital, it was her pumping meth into my iv." He then looks at Lauren. "It was Mona. She was doing this to me. Getting me hooked on meth."

Lauren

"Oh my God. That's who you were talking about when you said she's going to get us."

Daniel

"Yes." he then looks back Ty

"Stay the hell away from me and Lauren. I don't want nothing more to do to you. I am my own man. You're nothing but scum. When you see Mona, you tell her I am going to kill her." Daniel walks back into the house, slamming the door in Tyler's face.

Santino

"You're going to let him talk to you like that boss?"

Ty

"He's just confused right now. It's Lauren filling his head up with bullsh!t. She's in the way. She's been a thorn for me for far to long. But I can deal with her later. We have to find Mona." he says walking back to his limo.

Back inside the house

Lauren hugs Daniel

"I am so proud of you."

Daniel

"I am my own man now Lauren. And it's all because of you. I love you." He kisses her softly on the lips. They hold each other tighter and the kiss becomes more deep and passionate. They slowly walk back to the bedroom, unable to let each other go, as they make their way to the bedroom they begin to take each other's clothes off until they are down to their under garments. Daniel picks up Lauren in his arms and carries over to the bed. He lays her down and gets into the bed with Lauren. They continue to kiss. Lauren takes her panties off, giving Daniel the cue that's she's ready for his love. Daniel pulls his d!ick through the slot of his boxers and slowly slides inside of Lauren. Not having been in a wet warm love hole in what seems to be eternity to Daniel, he takes a few strokes and then releases himself inside of her.

Mona Island

Mona and Sharan are deep in the jungle and they come to s stop. Mona takes a deep breath.

"MMM, funk so good"

Sharan

"Say what?"

Mona

"You smell that?"

Sharan

"No. What am I supposed to be smelling?"

Mona

"My Mary Garden." They take a few more steps and Mona and Sharan look at a weed patch, with weed stocks that reach 5 ft in height.

Sharan

"What are you going to do with that junk?'

Mona

"Junk, no baby, this is my aunt Mary. Please don't talk about her like that. Let's smoke drugs my Nubian princess.' Mona breaks off a piece of the plant, breaks it down, then rips of a piece of a leaf off from a tropical tree and rolls up her Aunt inside the leaf. Mona licks it shut.

Sharan

"So you grew all this marijuana?"

Mona

"Sure did. Doesn't it look beautiful? Mona says trying to light a fire by rubbing two sticks together. The friction finally shoots out sparks and at last Mona gets a fire started

Mona

"I got some fire for my fire" She says laughing, lighting up her homemade drug stick. Mona inhales and holds her breath as long as she can until she chokes.

Sharan

"How can you waste your brain cells like that?"

Mona doesn't answer, drifting off into a place she hasn't been to in a long time, Mona has a Mary moment. In her moment she sees

Sharan

"Mona, I'm talking to you.'

Mona

"Sorry chocolate momma. Here hit this" She says holding the blunt towards her.

Sharan

"I don't smoke."

Mona

"Suit your self. This some good ass weed." She says coughing again.

Sharan

"I really wish you would not smoke that garbage around me."

Mona

"I will do almost anything for you. But I can't leave my aunt Mary alone. She's been so good to me when I needed her most. Always there when I need her. She's the one that got me through my pain Abe caused me."

Sharan

"I want you to replace your Aunt Mary. Replace her with me." Sharan says getting closer to Mona and putting her hand around her. Sharan wonders if she can use Mona's drugged state to her advantage

Mona

"You really care about me huh?"

Sharan

"I do. And I told you I want to help you get through this pain. You need to confront your father over what he did to you. He needs to pay."

Mona

"You're right. He did this to me. He turned me into this weed smoking monster.'

Sharan

"I'm going to be here every step of the way. I will be in your corner."

Mona

"Then it's time to go back to Pasadena." Sharan is relieved that maybe she might have some hope of escaping this lunatic.

The Blue Note

Kiko and Dondre are seated at the bar. As Dre sits down, Abe and Don leaves. Dre chuckles to himself, thinking that DC probably left on his account. Dre orders a beer while Kiko orders Club Soda.

Dre

"That's real fu(cked up man. Though we weren't speaking when I left out and came out here I still love her yo. That's my momma. I can't believe you would not tell me something like this till now."

Diego

"Please have a seat. How are you two doing?"

Jodie

"A little nervous."

Diageo

"Why so?"

Jodie

"I'm not to big on a lot of people knowing my status. It's very hard for me."

Diego

"I understand, but rest assured, what we say here is strictly confidential."

Jodie

"I know all that. But it's just one more person knowing I have HIV"

Outside of Diego's office, is Jenn with her ear pressed to the door, having just heard Jodie has HIV, Jenn's jaw drops, she had no idea Jodie's secret was anything like this………

Westwood Park

Karim's house

Karim turns around and looks at Ria

"You slept with My Uncle Don? What!? When? How do you even know him. He's in New Orleans."

Ria

"I don't want to talk about it. I am ashamed of it. I was just being a woman about mine and telling you what the deal is before any one had a chance to get to you first. You know how people like to twist stories up."

Karim

"How do you know DC?"

Ria

"Look man, I really don't want to get into all that. You should know that I am a woman that never concedes to defeat. I made a terrible mistake. That's all I have to say about it." She turns around and begins to walk to her car. Karim runs up behind her and grabs her arm and turns her around so she can face him.

Ria

"You better keep your hands off me!"

Karim

"So you think you gone come here and tell me you slept with my uncle and that's it? I think I deserve more than that. We were together five years. We were engaged, don't you think you should respect me more than that?"

Ria

"What do you want me to say? I have done something I am not proud of. I got caught up. If I had known he was your uncle, I would have never slept with him. How do you think I feel knowing I slept with my ex fiancée's uncle? It's sick to even think about it. I know I have hurt you Karim, but trust me, that is something I was not trying to do again. "

Karim

"That really seems to be hard."

Ria

"I knew you would say some sh!t like that. That "I told you so" type of sh!t. I'm not on that Karim." She begins to walk away toward her car again. This time Ria wishes he stop her again, and spin her around and begin to kiss her passionately. But it doesn't happen. As Ria get's in her car, She sees Karim driving off in the moving van, leaving what they shared, all their good memories and bad, behind. Ria realizes it's a chapter that is closed forever.

Episode 82: Common Enemies!

Written by: ML Cooks

Greater Yonders Cemetery

Daniel and Lauren hold each other as they look upon Chris Douglas's tombstone.

"Christopher L Douglas

1981-2008

Brave Heart"

Lauren is trembling with tears. Daniel holds her head against his chest.

Daniel

"Baby, I know it's hard for you to be here, but I feel we have to do this for Chris. He was an innocent man who died for nothing." Daniel has a tear stream down his face.

"This is all Mona's fault. And Tyler added fuel top he fire. I swear Chris, You have not died in vain. I will seek vengeance for your death. Mona will pay for what she's done to everyone. I'm going to kill that Bitch!"

Lauren

"Daniel, please don't talk like that. To much has happened. Seeing you with that knife through your chest did something to me that I don't ever want to relive ever again. I just got you back and I don't want to lose you again."

Daniel

"I understand….Let's go home baby."

They walk away from Chris's grave, walking past Ashley's grave, exiting the cemetery.

Westwood Park

Mike, who was laying in the bed is awoken by the sounds of come coughing. He looks over and doesn't see Jodie next to him. He sits up and hears what seems to be Jodie vomiting in the bathroom. He gets up and walks over to the bathroom and sees her sitting on the floor next to the toilet, vomiting her whole life up. He kneels down next to her ands caresses her.

Jodie

"Please, let me be. I don't want you to look at this nasty stuff."

Mike

"Would not dream of it. I am here for you Jodie. Now and forever."

Jodie

"Well forever won't be long for me."

Mike

"Don't talk like that. You don't know that. There could be a cure for HIV/AIDS tomorrow for all we know."

Jodie

"I doubt it" She replies back standing back up. She then brushes her teeth.

Mike

"When was the last time you saw a doctor?"

Jodie

"Not since I've been to Pasadena"

Mike

"That's been over six months ago. You need to get to a doctor."

Jodie

"No…. I am ok."

Mike

"Jodie please, do it for me."

Jodie, smiling at him,

"Just for you. I'll call around and find a doctor." He smiles back at her and hugs her.

Mike

"Besides, with Jennifer after you, I don't want you getting to stressed out. You have enough to worry about."

Jodie

"I love you so much Mike."

Mike

"I love you too" He says back to her as he hugs her.

SG Fashion Headquarters. Downtown Pasadena

Gilbert walks into Sabryn's office.

Sabryn

"Hey Gilly, How are you?"

Gilbert

"I am fine and you are about to be better."

Sabryn

"Why do you say that?"

Gilbert

"Take a look at these!" He says handing her some papers.

Sabryn

"What's all this?"

Gilbert

"Divine Design's stock is trading at an all time low thanks to yesterday's fashion show."

Sabryn, smiling as she looks over the report

"Indeed. I love it. Damn Natalia and that jail bird Alexis. I hope they continue to fall."

Gilbert

"Oh they will. Natalia has got nothing on you. I am sure SG will reclaim the top spot it once held."

Sabryn

"Indeed. I am going to go ahead and launch my Elegante' line."

Gilbert

"That was something you and Sharan were working on together. How will that play out with here not being here?"

Sabryn

"SG is in trouble. I have to do something to turn this sinking ship around. There is no telling where Sharan is or if she is ever coming back."

Gilbert

"That is true." Just as he says that, they hear a high school band marching towards her office.

Sabryn

"What in the hell is going on!?" They both run out of Sabryn's office to see what the commotion is and Sabryn is stunned to see Bryan, playing the drums, in front of the high school band. Sabryn sees a banner that reads "Will you marry me?" Sabryn is caught off guard as she is overjoyed that the love of her life has finally asked her hand in marriage. Bryan approaches her finally as the band stops playing.

Sabryn

"What is all this?"

Bryan, getting down on one knee

"What does it look like? I am asking you to marry me Sabryn. I want us to be a family to our child. I want us to be happy together, forever. Will you make me the happiest man alive and say yes, say that you will marry me?"

Sabryn

"Yes! Yes I will marry you." Bryan stands back up and hugs his new fiancée as the band and office workers cheer for the newly engaged couple.

Meanwhile, in the parking lot of SG, The lady in red is lurking around. She sees Sabryn's car and walks over to it. LiR gets a bat and bashes all of Sabryn's windows to her car.

"Take that bitch!" She then looks over and sees Bryan's car. LiR walks over to Bryan's car, pulls out a knife and flattens all of Bryan's tires. Then she walks away as if nothing has happened.

Abe and his brother Don are seated at bar at The Blue Note.

They both order a beer.

Abe

"It is so good to finally hear from my older brother. After Hurricane Katrina I feared for the worst. I didn't know where you were relocated too."

DC

"Cleveland. I lost everything."

Abe

"Where's Lynn?"

DC, pausing before answering, sipping on his MGD

"Abe, Lynn left me years ago."

Abe

"For a another man? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

DC

"Because I failed again. I didn't want to tell you something like that."

Abe

"Then where are the boys?"

DC

"I haven't seen my son's since they were born."

Abe

"What is going on Don? Why haven't you told me none of this?"

DC

"Because it's something I don't want to talk about. It's my business."

Abe

"But I am your brother. You haven't seen your sons since they were new borns and you don't want to talk about it?"

DC

"Lynn left me. She found out I cheated on her."

Abe

"Wow. Cheated huh?"

DC

"That's what I said boy."

Abe

"I thought you were happy with your wife?"

DC, having a flashback of kissing Sister Patterson

"Sometimes things just happen. I got caught up and I paid for it. I don't know my sons, hell I wouldn't even know them if I saw them on the streets."

Abe

"Where is Lynn?"

DC

"I don't know boy. All these damn questions is making me hungry."

Abe, laughing

"You still have not changed.:

DC

"I have not heard from or seen Lynn since after my last son was born."

Abe

"We have to change that. I'm glad you're here in Pasadena."

DC, unable to look at his brother, feeling guilty about what he did with his wife

"I'm glad to be here to. I am tired of pimping. Pimping aint easy for me no more. I am ready to turn my life around."

Abe

"And I am going to help you do that."

DC

"I need a job."

Abe

"I can get you one at Ivory Inc. Kevin and Karim own there own fragrance company."

DC

"Word." DC just so happens to look over by the entrance and almost chokes on his beer when he sees Dondre, with his brother Kiko entering the upscale restaurant. DC remembers that Dondre caught him kissing Sister Patterson. DC begins to get nervous, wondering if Dondre will really keep his word and not say anything.

Pasadena City Jail

Rufus walks up to Alexis's jail cell.

Alexis

"May I help you?"

Rufus

"Everyone is so nice here in Pasadena, except for Sister Patterson."

Alexis

"You can say that again."

Rufus

"Any who, I think I can help you out more."

Alexis

"How so?"

Rufus

"Well I know being in jail, you are not able to keep up on the latest news and what not's."

Alexis

"What do you mean?"

Rufus

"Did you know that the fashion show was a bust thanks to Natalia's mismanagement."

Alexis

"I am not surprised. That damn armature."

Rufus

"Indeed. She also gloated over the fact that you were in jail and she also told reporters your not getting out."

Alexis

"I told that bitch she does not want me as an enemy."

Rufus

"Girl Hello"

Alexis

"Uhm, hello?"

Rufus, laughing,

"Never mind."

Alexis

"So why are you here telling me this?"

Rufus

"I am here to help you take out nasty Natti. She has something that belongs to me."

Alexis

"And what is that?"

Rufus, thinking of the sex tape he has of Bryan and Natalia, the same Bryan that used to date Alexis's crazy sister Ashley, he decides to keep his cards close to his breast,

"No need to worry about that. Let's just worry about how we are going to take Natalia out."

Westwood Park

Lauren and Daniel's House

Lauren and Daniel are slow dancing to "What kind of Man Would I Be" by Mint Condition. They gaze into each other's eyes.

Lauren

"This feels so good. I love this new you. I can tell you've already changed so much." He leans in to kiss her just as the door bell rings." Hold that thought baby" He says pecking her on the lips and answering the door. He opens the door and sees Tyler

Ty

"I am so glad to see you out and about man."

Daniel, out of no where punches Ty in the jaw as Ty, caught off guard by the ferocity of the blow to the jaw, loses his balance and falls off the porch.

Outside of Divine Design

Rufus and Bryan are talking,

Rufus

"I knew I would get your attention."

Bryan

"Your lying. You don't have that sex tape."

Rufus pulls the DVD out of her purse to show him

"Oh yes I do. I was blessed to see such a huge dick in action."

Bryan

"Stop talking to me like that you fruit cake. What the hell do you want from me?"

Rufus

"Money."

Bryan

"I don't have no money. Your good friend Natalia wiped me out already."

Rufus

"Then you have two options, I tell Sabryn you slept with h er arch rival, and isn't she pregnant? I wonder who the father is. Maybe it's you big daddy"

Bryan

"I am not the father of Natalia's child. So you can stop that right there. I am almost afraid to ask this next question, but what's my other choice?"

Rufus

"Put it in me big boy." She says caressing his face

Bryan

"You better keep your hands off me Miss Rainbow. Aint no way in hell I am putting anything in you. I am straight."

Rufus

"Yea yea, do you know how many times I've heard that? I guess I will have to tell your poor pregnant girlfriend all about your dirty little affair with Natalia." She says turning back around to walk back inside the building.

Bryan, shaking his head in disgust knowing very well in order to keep his bliss with Sabryn, he's going to have to give in to one of Rufus's demands

"Alright wait. Let's talk." Rufus turns a round with a big smile on her face.

Episode: 81, Fake Boobs!

Written by ML Cooks with Durand Saint Haliare

Huntington Memorial Hospital

Lauren walks into Daniel's room. He looks at her and smiles

Daniel

"I am so glad to see you."

Lauren

"Oh yea?"

Daniel

"Yes, Dr. Whitfield is releasing me today."

Lauren

"That's great news."

Daniel

"Yes it is. I get my freedom back. I get to eat actual food."

Lauren

"Mona must of really did a number on you."

Daniel

"Yes she did. But nothing is more worse than Chris dying for something he did not do."

Lauren, standing up to look away from him as she thinks of her ex dead lover.

Daniel

"Lauren, are you ok?"

Lauren then thinks of sleeping with her best friend Kevin a few weeks ago

"I'm just going through so much. I thought you were dead, I thought Chris killed you, he dies and you turn up alive. It's madness."

Daniel

"That it is. But it's all over now. Lauren I love you. I thought of you every moment in that dungeon. Thinking of your pretty smile got me through my darkest hours."

Lauren tears running down her face

"I really don't know what to say Danny? I am so torn right now. I've been on an emotional roller coaster these last few months. From one extreme to the next. I can't handle nothing else."

Daniel

"What are you talking about? What's going on?"

Lauren, wondering if she should break Daniel's heart by telling him she slept with Kevin

"I am just overwhelmed that's all. I am just glad you are here."

Daniel

"Me too. I never thought I'd see the light of day again but I have learned so much about myself while I was chained up in that Bitch's dungeon. I took so much for granted, I've wasted so much of my life on non sense."

Lauren

"So what are you saying?"

Daniel

"I am turning over a new leaf. I am done with drugs. I am done running the streets, and most of all I am done with Tyler."

Lauren

"Seriously?"

Daniel

"Of course. Being involved with Ty has got me into a whole lot on unnecessariness. I am done with that life. That kind of life isn't for me. I want to be my own man. "

Lauren

"I am so happy to hear you say that. "

Daniel

"I'm just sorry it took almost dying to realize all of this."

Lauren

"Sometimes that's what it takes. I am just glad to have you back." She walks over to him and hugs him. He holds her back

Daniel

"You smell so good. It feels so good to hold you in my arms. I thought I'd never ever live to see this day again."

Lauren

"This is a new beginning for us Daniel."

Daniel

"Yes it is." He says getting up gathering his belongings and getting ready to head home

Daniel

"If you don't mind, there is one place I really want to go before we head home."

Lauren

"Any where."

Daniel

"I want to go to Chris's grave."

Back at Divine Design

In the men's bathroom

Sister Patterson looks at Dondre, not knowing what to say after he caught her kissing her husband's brother.

DC

"Who are you?"

"Dre"

Pat

"Dre, Lord have mercy, please it's not what it looks like."

DC

"Then what do you call it girl?"

Pat slaps DC

"Shut up talking to me." She walks over to Dre. "Dre you have to believe me, I am a good person. I still work for the Lord. This was just a misunderstanding. You cannot tell Abe. I am a Holy woman."

Dre

"Sister Patterson, as much as I would love to tell your husband, I'm not that type of person. You told me in jail that you believed in me. That really meant a lot to me."

Sister Patterson

"I told you my third eye never lies."

Dre

"I didn't see nothing, I don't know nothing."

Sister Pat hugs him

"Thank you Lord. If Miss Jenkins found out that this greasy monkey put his mouth on me, Lord I don't even want to go there."

DC

"I want to meet Miss Jenkins Damn it. After all these years you're still talking about a Miss Jenkins." Sister Patterson again slaps DC.

DC

"Looky here, you're going to stop with all that slapping. The only slapping I want you to do is the slapping you do while me make love."

Pat

"No one talk about Miss Jenkins. Get it together. I don't even understand why you are here."

DC

"You're the one in the men's bathroom."

Sister Pat looking at Dre

"Why are you still here? This isn't a show. "

Dre

"My bad sister Pat." he says leaving the bathroom

Sister Pat than turns to DC

"You better get your fat ass out of Pasadena. You have no business here. Don't you start no rness!

Don

"My family is here. My brother, my nephews. And I thought we could rekindle what we had. You sho' know how to make my toes curl up."

Pat

"Don't go there. Lord have Mercy. What happened back then was a mistake. Leave the past in the past. I am warning you now Don, don't cause no trouble for me and my family. I will get ugly if I have too. The Lord will just have to excuse me." She shakes her head at him and storms out. DC laughs and says

"Yea, I'ma have me some of that."

The Blue Note

Jodie sits at a table on the patio that sits over a pond. As she is drinking a margarita she thinks back to her confrontation with Jenn. She then thinks of letting Natalia down by giving into Jenn's black mail, and walking out of the fashion show. Mike then comes up behind her.

"Jo, what is going on? Are you ok?"

Jodie

"I'm so glad you are here." She says getting up and hugging him.

Mike

"Jodie what is going on, why did you run out the fashion show like that? Is it Jennifer?"

Jodie

"Why would you say that?"

Mike

"She was acting to thrilled about your walking out on the show."

Jodie

"I bet she was." She says walking away and over to towards the koi filled blue pond. She leans over the banister and watch the fish swim around. Mike walks up beside her and does the same.

Mike

"Tell me what's going on?"

Jodie, tears falling from her eyes

"That dirty Bitch went to Cleveland and found my old pimp DC."

Mike

"It makes sense now. But why would she do this?"

Jodie

"Because she's a spiteful Bitch."

Mike

"Jenn really has changed. I didn't know she could be this vial."

Jodie

"Or maybe you didn't know her at all."

Santino pulls Ty's limo in front of Ty's mansion.

Ty

"I'm only going to ask you this one more time. Did you have something to do with Jodie walking out on the fashion show?"

Jenn

"No and why does it matter? It seems you care for her more than you do me. You hit me and try to strangle me. Not to mention you shot me. Maybe I should go to the police about all of this."

Ty

"You can use my phone." He says handing her his cell phone.

Jenn

"So you don't care if I call the police?"

Ty

"Not at all. In fact make that call inside the mansion. I'm going to see Jodie."

Jenn

"Why?"

Ty

"To find out if you are lying to me."

Jenn

"I am the one that lays in your bed every night. You shouldn't have to go ask that slut anything. When I say I didn't have nothing to do with what happened today then you need to believe me."

Ty

"It's too bad I don't."

Jenn

So that means you don't trust me?"

Ty

"Jenn get the hell of out of this limo. I got things to do." he says reaching over her and opening the limo door.

Jenn

"I am going with you then."

Ty

"Jenn you are really starting to piss me off. Now I have asked you nicely. Quite being a Bitch and do what I ask you to do!" He says pushing her out the limo. Jenn falls on her ass and Ty slams the door shut as Ty tells Santino to drive. Alls Tino could was feel bad for Jenn but obey his boss.

Jenn standing up, hollering out

"You son of a Bitch! You can' treat me like this!" She says stomping on the ground.

"Damn you Jodie. This is all your fault. I am not done with you yet." She says walking into the mansion.

Sister walks into the right restroom this time at Divine Design but sees Rufus washing her hands.

Sister Pat: Hey sissy boy.

Rufus is looking for something or someone, as she ignores Sister Pat.

Sister Pat: yes you tranny, I am talking to you.

Sister pat is pulling her holy water, and bible out from her purse.

Rufus: Now, you and your third eye should really get a life." He says trying to walk past the crazy Sister but Sister Pat grabs her hands, pulling her toward the mirror, and throwing some holy water on her.

Sister Pat: oh good Lord help me get the gay out-

Rufus: Get your hands of me you old bat!

She knocks the holy water bottle from Sister Pat's hand , and it breaks into pieces as it hits the ground, and Sister pat reaches to the floor after the bottle of holy water, and splashes it back to her face.

Rufus starts laughing, and looking down on Sister Pat on the floor.

Rufus: I bet your third, didn't see that coming…" He says laughing

Rufus: Witch!

As Rufus starts walking away, Sister Pat looks up, and shakes her head.

Sister Pat: Oh Lord you know I tried so hard - but this piece of tramp just -

She gets up from the ground and goes after Rufus, and grabs her by the hair, pulling Rufus's wig off.

Rufus: Ouch!

Sister Pat: Look at that

Sister Pat is waving the wig around.

Sister Pat: This the Devil's work -

Rufus: how dare you!

Rufus slaps Sister Pat across the face.

Sister: That's it!

Slapping Rufus across the face, twice harder.

Sister Pat: If you are looking for sympathy for your pathetic little life, I suggest you keep looking, because you ain't going to find any here... Faggot.

Rufus: Finally, the bitch has arrived.

Sister Pat raises her bible, and making her way toward Rufus as she speak.

Sister Pat: Oh That Bitch is going to shut your mouth once and for all.

Throwing the wig at Rufus's face. Rufus grabs Sister Pat by the hair and pulls it back, and Sister Pat rips Rufus's blouse open, and one of Rufus's fake breast falls to the floor.

Rufus grabs the breast and starts beating Sister Pat in the face with it. Rufus is still pulling on Sister's Pat hair, and just as they break apart, Sister Pat's wig falls on the ground.

Divine Design, as DC catches Ria, Abe and Sister Pat wonders why she fainted. Ria comes too. She gets up realizing she’s in DC’s arms.

Ria

“Get your damn hands of me!”

DC

“You know my kin folk girl? Why didn’t you tell me in Cleveland?”

Sister Pat

“Cleveland? You two know each other?”

DC

“Yea, you could say that.” DC says pinching her booty. Ria slaps him.

Sister Pat

“Loosey goosey. First my son, and now his uncle. Have you no class? You make women like me look bad. I know you smelled like a slut.”

Ria

“You know Patty, I’m not gone be to many more of your sluts.” She says taking out her earrings.

Pat

“Oh no honey. You want to do battle. I done told you chile’ I am a soldier for the Lord. Thou will not be a slut. I got my holy water and I got my bible in my purse.”

Abe, grabbing hold of his wife

Ria

“Yea you betta get that crazy ass crow. I will beat the hell out of her.”

DC

“Damn, ladies what is goings on? There is no love lost here.”

Pat

“Shut up you fat sloppy bastard.”

Abe

“Don man please tell me you did not sleep with Ria?”

DC

“Yea I did.”

Abe

“Ria is my son’s ex fiancée.”

DC

“How was I supposed to know? She came looking for me.”

Ria

“It can’t be going down like this.” Ria walks away.

Abe

“It’s good to see you Don.’ He says hugging him again. I haven’t heard from you since you told me you were relocating to Cleveland after hurricane Katrina?”

Pat, oddly shakes her head, looking at DC

“Lord, what are you trying to tell me? Is it time? What is Miss Jenkins going to say about this?”

Episode : 80, Sister Pat’s Secrets

Written by: ML Cooks

As Jenn walks back into the showroom, Natalia takes center stage. She has a microphone in her hand and speaks to the crowd.

“And now everyone, the moment you all been waiting for. Jodie Keefe, wearing tonight’s show piece. Everyone put your hands together.

DC, hollering out

“Go head Hoe!”

Everyone looks at DC, slowly clapping wondering what he is talking about. Jenn smiles as the music plays and Jodie has yet to step out.

On the stage, Natalia looks at her stage hands and asks what’s going on? They reply they don’t know. Natalia then begins to desperately search for Jodie.

The crowd waits and waits for the show piece and Jodie walk to out onto the runway. Natalia enters the women’s rest room but doesn’t see her. She then gets a text message.” I’m so sorry. I can’t go through with it.” Natalia throws her phone at the wall, as her moment of glory is stolen her from by Jodie and Jenn.

“No..No..No…” She says with tears running down her eyes.

Mona Island

Mona

“So you want to talk about me baby?”

Sharan

“Yes. If I am going to love you, I have to know who I am loving. You told me in your dungeon that Abe is your father and he is the reason you are doing all of this. What did he do?”

Mona, looks away, as memories flood her mind of being molested night after night by her father

“Abe, every night, rapped and molested me.”

Sharan

“Couldn’t you stop him?”

Mona

“No, he had me chained up, to a bed and had his way with me anytime he wanted.”

Sharan

“I can’t believe the police chief would do something like this.”

Mona

“Believe me me did.”

Sharan

“But why? Why would Abe do this to you?”

Mona, shedding a tear

“He told me it’s my fault why he molested me. He blames me for something.”

Sharan

“But he never told you?”

Mona

“No. That’s all he would say, this is your fault. You brought this on your self.”

Sharan

“That’s just wrong. So how did you escape from that at horror?”

Mona

“I wasn’t supposed to. My father tried to kill me.”

Sharan

“I can’t believe this.”

Mona

“He poured gasoline all over my body, then set my body on fire then he buried me alive.” She says with tears running down her cheeks. Sharan, feeling her pain and despite all the evil things she has done, genuinely cares for Mona and holds her

Sharan

“It’s ok. Let it out. No one should have to go through something like that.”

Mona

“For 15 years, my father had his way with me.”

Sharan

“Why didn’t any one come looking for you? What about Kevin, Karim and Sister Patterson?”

Mona

“Abe took me away from them. He never gave me a chance to meet my mother or to live a life like other normal people live. He took everything away from me. My respect, my dignity. I don’t even now who I am.”

Sharan

“Mona, you have to put an end to all this. You can stop this. Abe ruined your life and you need to make him pay.”

Mona

“Oh, you mean going back to Pasadena and confronting him?”

Sharan

“Yes! You can meet your mother. Wouldn’t that make you happy? After all these years, you can be reunited with Sister Patterson?” Mona gets up off the beach and walks in the shallow water as she thinks what it would be like to finally end her reign of terror. She wonders what it would be like to be reunited with her mother and brothers.

Westwood Park, Karim’s House

Ria pulls up and wonders why a moving van is in her old driveway. She gets out the car and walks to Karim’s front door. Karim almost walks right into her coming from around the corner.

Ria

“You better watch your self!”

Karim

“It’s good to see you to Victoria.”

Ria

“Ohh, you know I hate to be called that. Only the government can call me that.” He chuckles, realizing Ria well never change from being her loud self. He brushes past her with a moving box.

“You moving somewhere?” Ria says following him.

Karim

“Why, are you going to help me move these boxes?”

Ria

“No. I’m a model now. I don’t work hard.”

Karim

“You’re a model? Since when and for who?”

Ria

“If you wasn’t up the white girls ass, you’d know something.”

Karim

“I am not obligated to know anything about you. We’re not engaged no more. Have you forgotten?”

Ria

“No. I will never forget that. Karim I still love you. I am in love with you. I haven’t stopped.”

Karim

“You have a real funny way of showing it.”

Ria

“Look who’s talking, your sleeping with that white Bitch!”

Karim

“She’s in jail! And stop calling her that.”

Ria

“Whatever Karim. I want to know where you moving too.”

Karim

“Lavender Hill Miss Nosey.”

Ria

“You got that right….Lavender Hill huh. Must be nice. Why are you moving up on the hill?”

Karim

“I need a new start. Too many bad memories here. “

Ria, hurt a little, but deciders not to let Karim know, believing she’ll never have a chance to be with him again, decides to get on with her mission. As Karim walks back into the house, Ria says,

“I slept with your uncle DC.”

Back at Divine Design, Natalia walks back into the showroom and onto the runway, with a microphone.

“Thank you all for coming, that will conclude Divine Design’s first West Coast Fashion Show. You all can purchase my latest designs, across retail stores nation wide.” Natalia walks off the stage and out into the crowd. Mike walks towards her.

Mike

“Nat, what’s going on? Where is Jodie?”

Natalia

“I was hoping you could help me out on that one. I got some text saying she can’t go through with the show.”

Mike

“A text?”

Jenn, walking over

“It’s such a shame Jodie played you Natalia.”

Ty, walking up behind her

“You seem a little bit to happy about that. And If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you had something to do this.”

Natalia

“Excuse me. Jenn? What the h ell is going on?”

Jenn is speechless.

Mike

“I don’t have time to wait. I’m going to find Jodie. Jennifer you better not be behind any of this.”

Jenn

“Bye Mike.”

Natalia

“He’s right Jenny. If I find out you are the cause of this fashion show being cut short due to any antics you might have pulled, It will be me and you and It won’t be pretty. I’m no Jodie. And don’t let my being pregnant fool you. I will still take you out.”

Ty

“Nat, just calm down. I’ll handle this.” Ty grabs Jenn’s arm and drags her outside to his limo. Reporters rush into Natalia’s face and try to drill her on Jodie’s whereabouts. Alls Natalia could to do was trying to salvage what was left of her dreams gone down the toilet.

Outside of Divine Design,

Mark is smoking a cigarette. Rufus walks out of the lobby doors.

Mark

“Don’t do nothing stupid.”

Rufus

“It’s a free country, I’m just smoking a cigarette. Besides, who cares what people say. I love you.”

Mark

“Stop saying sh!t like that. People will hear you. I have a child on the way. I have a family now.”

Rufus

“Oh so now you want to play house? You wasn’t saying that last night when you had your dick down my throat.” Mark shakes his head and flicks his cigarette and walks away. Rufus laughs.

Back inside,

Bryan

“Are you ready to leave? I think this show is over.”

Sabryn, looking at Natalia sweating bullets trying to save face with the media

“Yes I am, go ahead and grab the car. I need to talk to some one.” Bryan kisses her on the lips and leaves to bring the car up as Sabryn walks over toward Natalia.

Bryan walks out the lobby and Rufus begins to follow him. Bryan sensing some one is following him turns around and sees Rufus. “Can I help you?” He says realizing this woman is extra manly

Rufus

“You sure can help me, but we will get to that later. Right now it’s about me helping you.”

Bryan

“I’m sorry, you must got me confused with some one else.’ He replies back, wanting to have nothing to do with what this transsexual want.

Rufus

“I know you and Natalia had sex and I got the tape to prove it Mr. 9 inches.” Bryan turns back around to look at a grinning Rufus.

“I thought that would get your attention.”

DC walks into the men’s bathroom. Right after him walks in Sister Patterson.

DC

“What the hell you doing in here?”

Pat slaps him

“You don’t talk to a Godly woman like that.”

DC

“You still haven’t changed have ya girl? I know why you came in here after me.” DC scoops Sister Patterson up in his arms and kisses her. Walking out from one of the stalls is Dre. Dre looks at Sister Patterson and DC kissing. Sister Pat pulls back realizing Dre caught her kissing her husband’s brother.

In the last few episodes, Rufus and Deiago have talked about Suga. You can expect the MIA criminal to resurface, but not in Pasadena...at first.

Pasadena City Jail

Rufus

"Shut your damn mouth. You're giving me a headache."

Pat

"lord have Mercy where is my holy water when I need it." She then looks at Alexis

"How could you kill your own flesh and blood? Then you lied about it? You're going straight to hell you she devil!"

Alexis

"Sister Patterson, I didn't know I rammed into Sabryn's car. It was a dark and stormy night."

Pat

"Save it for Oprah honey. I am glad my son won't be going out with you any more. You're a cold blooded killer and you would have to kill me first before I let you back in my son's life. It's a good thing I won't have to worry about that since you'll be in here for a long time."

Alexis

"I would not count on that. It was an accident and my lawyer is working on getting me out of here."

Pat

"That may be but you will not be with my son."

Rufus

"Don't you ever close the big mouth of yours? You're always harassing somebody."

Pat

"Don't talk to me you fruit basket. I am doing the Lord's work right now. How dare you speak to me like that?"

Rufus

"I can's believe you have kids. What man in the right man would start a family with a loud crow."

Pat, looking up toward the ceiling

"Lord give me strength not to beat the sweetness out of miss Jelly Bean here. Lord I want to do good by you, but the fagots keep testing me." Pat closes her eyes and then looks at Dre.

"My third eye is telling me something."

Rufus, laughing

"You look like you got a third eye."

Pat, looking at Rufus

"I better not ever see you in the streets. Lord help me and you if I do." Looking back a t Dre

"My third eyes is telling me your innocent. Some body is setting you up."

Dre

"Finally, some one knows what I am talking about. Tell that third eye thank you Sister Patterson."

Pat

"No, you thank the Lord. The Lord gave me my right eye to do his work. I speak the truth. That's all I know how to do. Dondre you're innocent, and I am going to help you find the person that did this to you."

Kevin, Karim, and Abe all walk into the holding area and are stunned at what Pat just said.

Kevin

"Ma, what are you talking about? No one set Dondre up. He kidnapped Sharan."

Dre

"You better listen to your mom boy."

Abe

"You can shut the hell up."

Pat

"It's true Kevin. Dondre did not kidnap Sharan, my third eye never lies."

Lisa and Kiko come walking to the holding are as well.

"She's right. That third eye didn't lie this time. The charges against my client have been dropped."

Kevin

"No! NO! NO! You got it all wrong. I was there in the house when he took Sharan."

Lisa

"The D.A. has dropped the case due to lack of evidence buddy."

Dre

"I told you. But you would not listen. Why would I kidnap the woman I love?"

Abe unlocks Dre's holding cell. Kiko and Dre hug.

Kiko

"It's good to have you out man."

Kevin, has a look of madness on his face as he keeps having flashbacks of all the things Dondre has done to get with Sharan, The romantic breakfast at the beauty shop, making love to Sharan, she called out his name, and he remembers Ria telling him she caught Dre and Sharan kissing at Ashley's funeral.

Kevin

"Enjoy this freedom while you can. It's not going to last long."

Dre

"Says who?"

Kevin

"Watch you're back." Kevin says as he leaves the police station. Karim follows him. Abe unlocks his wife cell as well to release Rufus and Pat.

Pat

"It's about damn time. I can't wait till we get home. We are going to pray all night. I can't believe you arrested me." She slaps him.

Dre

"Thank you Sister Patterson for believing in me."

Sister Pat then slaps Dondre. Dondre is stunned

"Don't talk to me when I am angry boy." She rolls here eyes at everyone and leaves the police station. Dre looks at Abe

"You better get your son in check. He gone fu(k around wit me and get hurt." Then Dre begins to walk out with Kiko following. Abe shakes his head in frustration. Rufus who is still there, gets bold and says

"It looks like you need a hug?" Abe looks at Rufus and walks away.

Rufus

"I was just trying to help. Oh well I guess. Pasadena has so many fine men. I'll have to sample them all" She says with a smile, leaving the Police station as well.

The Dressing Room

Jodie and Jenn stare each other down

DC

"Aint no one making no deals here unless it's through me. I am the pimp here."

Jodie

"This isn't about you DC. It's about me and my life. You shouldn't have come here. I told you I am done with that life."

DC

"You owe me some money hoe.'

Jenn

"Yes hoe, give your pimp the money you owe."

Jodie

"So Jenn brought you here DC?"

DC

"yes she did."

Jodie

"You just don't stop do you Jenn? Are you that miserable that you have to try and ruin my life too? Why are you doing this to me? "

Jenn

"Because I just don't like you. Mike and Ty are so smitten by you but I'm not. I want you out of our lives."

Jodie

"So what do I have to do for you not to expose me?"

Before Jenn can answer they hear

"Oh hell to the nall" Ria says approaching the trio

DC

"There you go girl. I like how you left me high and dry yesterday at the airport."

Jodie

"What? Ria you went to Cleveland too?"

Ria

"DC you can shut the hell up you fat bastard."

DC

"You was calling me big daddy last night."

Ria

"What the hell are you doing here? I told you to stay away from me in Pasadena!"

Jodie

"And you two had sex."

Jenn

"Jealous she had sex with your pimp?" Jodie with tears in her eyes, messing up her eye liner, runs off to the bathroom.

DC looks at Ria

"What do you say we go somewhere in a quiet corner and get busy."

Ria

"In your dreams." She says walking away.

DC

"I'm get you again lil momma. Feisty thang." He says walking onto the show area.

The Fashion show begins with some club music in the background playing and the lights flash of all colors on the runway. The first model walks out and struts to the music.

Sabryn, standing next to Natalia

"How hideous. So tacky. No class whatsoever ever."

Natalia

"Jealous ones still envy I see. If I wasn't pregnant. I would love to have a few rounds with you in the boxing ring you."

Sabryn

"It's a deal. After we have our babies , it's a date. I 've been waiting to show you who's really boss."

Natalia

"Bryan knows who's boss" She coolly says walking away.

Sabryn

"That's the second weird comment that dumb BITCH made. " she says wondering what is Natalia is talking about. As Sabryn walks back over to Bryan, The lady in red follows her.

Dre and Kiko arrive at the Fashion show.

Dre

"I hope I can snatch me up a lady in here. It's been so long since I got my d!ck wet.'

Kiko

"That's all you think about is sex."

Dre

"I can do that." He says looking at some of the models. Then Ria walks out and seductively walks down the runway.

Kiko

"Isn't that your ex?"

Dre

"Something like that. Listen bro, you said you had something to tell me about momma."

Kiko

"Yes I do. This not the place to talk to you about her. After the show we'll talk"

Dre

"we better man. You been putting this off since I've been in jail."

Next to arrive at the Fashion show are The Hutchins men, Karl and Ty. They make their way into the crowd and looks at the beautiful models walking down the runway. Ty looks around in the crowd and looks to see who he sees.

Karl

"So have you talked to Daniel?"

Ty

"No I have not. Lauren has been hovering around him."

Karl

"Well what the hell are you waiting for? We have to find Mona or she will ruin everything.'

Ty

"I know what I am doing. Damn, leave me the hell alone. Why don't you go on vacation or something? Don't you get bored hovering around your son. Go find a woman or something."

Karl

"How bout I have a go round with Jenn. She is mighty pretty."

Ty

"Karl, I wish you would leave Pasadena. You're in my way."

Making their way into the fashion show next are Abe and his wife Sister Patterson Williams.

Pat

Look at those sluts showing all that skin."

Abe

"Their models. That's their job."

Pat

"Don't talk back to me simple bastard. Arresting me like you crazy. I am a church woman. Miss Jenkins was not to happy when she found out you arrested me."

Abe

"You deserved it."

Pat

"Don't argue with me. Don't make me pull out my holy water."

Abe

"If any one needs holy water I t's you." he says walking away. Pat pulls her holy water out and begins to chase Abe with it.

Diego also arrives at the Fashion. He looks for Natalia. He spots her in the crowd and approaches her.

Natalia

"Hey Doctor. Thank you for coming to support me."

Diego

"In your dreams. I need to have a word with you."

Natalia

"Oh not now. I am running a fashion show.'

Diego

"I don't give a damn about that. Or should I tell Mark you paid Suga to stab Dahlia."

Natalia

"Dahlia is dead and gone. It won't even matter now. Besides, if you expose me now, I'll take you with me. You knew I paid Suga and yet you didn't do nothing. So your just as guilty as much as me."

Diego

"How would Mark feel about you paying Suga off? I think I'll tell him right now."

Natalia

"You can't he's not in town."

Diego

"Liar. He's right there." he says pointing at Mark walking over to them.

"It's time Mark finds out what type of woman he got pregnant."

DC mingles in the crowd. He bumps into Abe.

Abe

"Excuse me." Abe turns around and sees DC.

Don, is that you?"

DC

"Little brother. It's good to see you again." They hug just as Ria and Sister Patterson walks up to them.

Ria

"Don't you ever leave you fat Bastard!"

Abe

"Victoria, how dare you talk to my brother like that?"

Ria

"Say what?"

Abe

"This is my younger brother, DC" Ria faints as Sister Patterson looks at DC with a very strange look in her eyes.

"Oh my God NO! DC can't be here. Is this a sign my God is sending me. Is it time for the truth to come out?" She thinks in her mind.

Jodie hears a knock on the bathroom door. She rushes to open it to find Jenn with a smug smile on her face.

Jenn:

May I come in?

Jodie:

You're not welcome. Get out!

Jodie tries slamming the door in Jenn's face but Jenn lets herself in anyway.

Jodie:

Are you deaf?

Jenn:

Nope.

Jodie:

Why are you here?

Jenn:

I came by to warn you that by the end of the fashion show, your reputation will be just as tarnished as that whorish past of yours.

Jodie:

What are you talking about?

Jenn:

Ahh, Jodie, or should I say Jo Ho, Was that the name you used when you were a dirty slut exchanging your body fluids for money?

Jodie:

You bitch!

Jenn:

Well I'll be on my way. If you walk out on that runway, everyone will find out your a slut bucket. Ta ta dear.

Jenn heads for the door but Jodie pulls her hair as Jenn's body falls to the ground. Jodie twists and turns her head until Jenn kicks her in the face with her high heel. Jodie flails back into the wall. Jenn springs up and is ready for action. Jenn lunges for Jodie and starts to strangle her. She then throws Jodie over her couch and onto her glass coffee table, breaking it. Jenn jumps over the couch to attack Jodie but Jodie sweep kicks her ankle to bring her down to her level. Both women roll around on the glass, pulling each other's hair and screaming. Jenn gets up to head for the door again but Jodie grabs onto her leg to trip her. Jodie looks around and sees a knife sitting on the kitchen table. Jenn notices it too but Jodie's quicker when she grabs it. Jodie places the knife in front of her throat as she tugged onto her hair.

Jenn:

What are you going to do kill me? Go ahead and do it. Mike will still find out how filthy you really are.

Jodie:

I learned some things while I was on the street. Here's a message for you, don't screw with me!

Jodie opens the bathroom door and with all her might, throws Jenn out. Jenn trips to the ground as she watches the door slam in her face. All Jenn could do was laugh in victory.

Divine Design

Jodie and Ria walks into Natalia's office wearing their first show pieces. Natalia is overwhelmed looking at her friends wearing two of her designs.

"I think I am going to cry." She says with a tear streaming down her face.

Ria, walking over to hug her

"Girl it's ok. I know this is the moment you have been waiting for all your life. I am so glad I am here to share it with you."

Jodie

"Me too Natalia. This dress is so beautiful."

Natalia

"Thank you so much."

Ria

"Have you talked to Alexis?"

Natalia

"No need too. I got everything under control. This fashion show is going to be a success without. her"

Ria

"You got that right girl. "

Natalia

"I'm going to go down stairs to the show room and give the media a few interviews before our big show. I 'll meet you two along with the other ladies in the dressing room."

All three ladies leave the office.

Pasadena City Jail

Sister Patterson and Rufus are in the booking room.

As an officer ask for all of Sister Pat's things she throws a fit.

"This is a crime shame. My own damn husband arrested me for trying to knock some sense into that tranny over there."

Rufus

"You aint talking to me girlfriend. You put your hands on me. I didn't do nothing to you."

Pat

"Oh yes you did.. You assaulted my visions along with my third eye by being what you are. God didn't make you like that. He made you to be a man and you need to accept that. And you tried to steal some pork chops."

Rufus

"God love all his children."

Pat

"I'm sorry, he don't have no love for you. My God doesn't love chic's with d!cks."

Rufus

"And he doesn't love you either. How can such a Godly woman have a filthy mouth like yours?"

Pat

Because I speak the truth. That's all I know how to do."

Officer

"Ok ladies, it's time to go to your holding cell."

Pat

"Hold up. That's a man. Don't put that thing in a cell with me."

Rufus

"I'm a woman. More than woman than you. If anyone looks like a man it's you."

Officer

"That's enough.." pausing, looking at Rufus, then continuing "…ladies." Two officers escort Sister Pat and Rufus back to the holding area where they join Dre, and Alexis. Alexis and Dre are both shocked that Sister Patterson is about to join them in jail.

Westwood Park, Karim's House

Kevin is helping Karim pack up his things.

Karim

"I can't wait to move the hell out of here. I don't want to be reminded of Ria."

Kevin remains quiet and still continues to carry boxes out to a moving van. Kevin continues to think about the night he slept with his best friend Lauren. The Police Chief Abe Williams pulls up. Abe gets out his car and approaches his son.

"What's going on son? Who's moving?"

Kevin

"Karim, he bought a mansion on Lavender Hill."

Abe

"That's nice.. Look I need to talk to you and your brother. Is he inside?"

Kevin

"Yea."

Abe

"Let's go inside then." And they do just that. Once inside, Karim walks out from the bedroom and hugs his father.

Karim

"It's good to see you pops."

Abe

"Same here. I got something to tell you boys."

Karim

"Was sup?"

Abe

"I arrested your mother."

Kevin

"You did what?"

Karim

"What in the hell the matter with you pops?"

Abe

"She assaulted some one."

Karim

"Assault!? Who?"

Abe

"Some lady named Rufus, or he could be man. It doesn't matter, Pat attacked him."

Kevin

"I can' believe she's in jail. I am going to see her."

Karim

"Me too." They both leave Westwood Park with out saying a word to Abe.

Divine Design

The dressing room.

Jodie is sitting in a chair in front of a mirror, looking over her show piece outfit.

Ria, standing next to her

"You looking good girl."

Jodie

"Thank you."

"I agree." They both hear and they turn around and see Mike with a dozen of red roses. Jodie smiles and hugs Mike.

Ria

"That's so sweet. It makes me miss love. I'll leave you two be." She walks away.

Jodie

"I'm glad you're here."

Mike

"Me too. You look amazing."

Jodie

"Thank you."

Mike leans in to kiss her.

"I love you Jodie. You mean so much to me."

Jodie

"I love you too. You mean the world to me." They kiss again

Mike

"Are you nervous?"

Jodie

"A little bit. Walking out there on that runway in front of all those people and camera's. It's a little overwhelming."

Mike

"Don't worry about nothing. You'll do great. Just find me in the crowd and I'll ease you through it."

Jodie

"Thank you.'

Mike

"Well I better get going and let you do what you do. I'll meet you after the show." He hugs her one last time before leaving.

Meanwhile,

Downstairs

The Lobby of Divine Design

Natalia is giving an interview to reporters and media as Sabryn, Bryan, and Gilbert walk up to hear what she has to say.

Reporter

"So are you know in charge of Divine Design Miss Cigluiti?"

Natalia

"Please, call me Natalia. And Yes I am in control. As you all know Alexis Jones, was arrested for killing her own sister."

Reporter

"Aren't you worried, that the woman who used to run DD, is a murderer? Won't this fiascal taint DD's reputation?'

Natalia

"Not at all. Alexis is no longer a part of Divine Design. We have broken all ties with Ms. Jones. We wish Ms. Jones all the best of luck in her future. Though I must say it doesn't look very promising. Enjoy the show everyone." She walks away from the media spotlight and over to Sabryn, Bryan and Gilbert.

Natalia

"Sabryn, what a lovely surprise."

Sabryn

"I wouldn't call it that. I just came by to get a good laugh at the trash you are about to showcase."

Natalia

"You're just jealous. You thought I couldn't do it huh? Well how do you like me now? I have my own fashion house and guess what, I'm beating you in market share and profits."

Sabryn

"You mean you inherited a company in that position. You didn't put Divine Design on top. Alexis did. Once the news of her killing her sister marinates on people's mind I am sure you won't be claiming victory. In fact, the last time I looked at the numbers, you were slipping. And with your designs, I'm not worried about you. You'll never be on my level."

Natalia , remembering she had sex with her man Bryan at his club

"If only you knew?" She says looking at Bryan and walking away.

Sabryn

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

Bryan

"She just likes to rattle your chain. Let's go grab some seats." As Sabryn, Bryan, and Gilbert walk inside the show room, The Lady in Red is not to far from them, keeping a close eye on their movement.

Jenn and DC arrives at Divine Design.

DC

"What the hell we doing here? They got food in here?"

Jenn

"Damn, didn't you just eat?"

DC

"You got a lil mouth on you lil bunny. I got a big appetite what can I say? Pimping aint easy."

Jenn

"I'll say. Jodie works here. She's modeling in today's fashion show."

DC

"Jodie, modeling? This I have got to see. She a high class hoe now. I can really get some serious money. "

Jenn

"I am sure. That's why you and Jodie need to talk. So you two can talk about prices."

DC

"That's what I am talking about bunny. It's time to get paid." He says as they board the elevator, heading up to the tenth floor, where the dressing rooms are.

Pasadena City Jail

Sister Pat and Rufus are put into a cell together, a cell that face Alexis's and Dondre's cell.

Alexis

"Sister Patterson? Is that you?"

Pat

"I don't talk to killers."

Rufus

"Yes, it's her. "

Pat

"No one asked you, you fruit basket."

Rufus

"Why do you have to be so childish?"

Pat

"Why can't you put a pair of jeans and some sneakers on?"

Dre

"Hold up. That's a tranny?"

Rufus

"No jack ass! I'm a woman."

Pat

"No she he aint. It don't know what it is. Come on pull it out."

Rufus

"Excuse me?"

Pat

"Take that dress off and prove to us that you are a woman. You're Adam's apple is bigger than my 2sons put together."

Dre

"Naw man. I aint trying see nothing like that."

Rufus

"I don't have to prove anything to you. Why don't you take that mask off? You look more like a man than I ever could."

Alexis snickers. Pat looks at her

"Is there something funny?"

Alexis, holding her laughter

"No Sister Patterson."

Pat

"I can't take this. ..Guard! Get me away from this freak!" She hollers out.

Divine Design

Dressing Room,

Jodie is applying lip gloss to her lips, admiring her own beauty in the mirror. Smiling, that is until she sees some one she thought she would never have to see again. DC stands behind Jodie with a smile. Jodie is stunned, wondering how did he find her, what is he doing here? Jodie thought she left her past in Cleveland when she came to Pasadena. When Jodie turns around to question DC, Jenn emerges from behind DC with a victorious smile on her face,

Jenn

"Hey Jo Ho? I brought your pimp back from Cleveland. I wonder what will all those people say out there when your on the runway and they find out you're a slut."

Jodie

"You dirty Bitch. How low will you go?"

DC

"I hope as low as you girl. Look at you. You looking good. Give daddy some sugar."

Jodie, steal starring at Jenn with hateful eyes

"What do you want? Why are you doing this?"

Jenn

"I am taking you out. I am willing to keep this little dirty secret of yours. I won't expose you to the world as the highest grossing hor Cleveland has ever known. For price that is."

Jodie, rolling her eyes

"You are an evil Bitch! What's the price Jennifer? What do I need to do for you to not to expose me?"

Jenn, grinning again

"I thought you'd never ask?………"

Huntington Memorial Hospital

Lauren walks into Daniel's hospital room. She sits down next to him and holds his hand. As he lays sleep she talks to him

"I can't believe you are really here. I wish you could wake up. I have so much to ask you. Everything is so confusing. I thought Chris killed you, I thought you were dead. But you're not. How did this happen? I don't understand."

Daniel slowly begins to open his eyes. When he sees Lauren, and he smiles.

"Tell me this is not a dream."

Lauren

"It's no dream. You're here at Huntington Memorial hospital."

Lavender Hill,

Ty's Mansion.

Ty and Jenn are in the bedroom

Jenn

"I can't believe you hit me."

Ty

"You asked for it. I told you not to go to Cleveland and you went anyway."

Jenn

"I'm not your child. You don't tell me what tot do."

Ty

"You're my woman. I won you away from Mike. You will do what the hell I tell you to do. My life is spinning out of control and I need you here with me."

Jenn

"What about what I want? You said you would make me happy but that was a lie. Were you just feeding me sweet nothings just to take me away from Mike to spite him?"

Ty

"It has nothing to do with Mike. If you would act right, I would treat you better."

Jenn

"Your treating like I'm your child. You don't even respect how I feel about anything."

Ty

"Because all you do is nag, nag, nag. I don't have time for that. I am trying to make money so we can live a good life."

Jenn

"All the money in the world doesn't mean nothing to me. I just want you to respect me, and love me. Not hit me."

Ty

"Jenn, put some ice on your jaw. It's looking bad.' he says walking out the bedroom. After Ty leaves, Karl walks in the bedroom

Jenn

"Can I help you Karl?"

Karl

"No, I just came to see your jaw. It's about time my son showed you who's boss."

Jenn

"Excuse me? So you approve of your son hitting women?"

Karl

"It's about respect. Know your place." Karl says walking out the room.

Jenn, hollering after him

"Damn you! Damn all of you." She looks in the mirror to see her jaw is some what swelled up. She thinks to herself

"This is all your fault Jodie. It's time for you to be reunited with your pimp." Jenn leaves the bedroom as well.

Ty enters Santino's bedroom.

Santino

"What's going on boss?"

Ty

"Don't you what's going on boss me. Why didn't you stop Jenn from going to Cleveland?

Santino, has a flashback of kissing Jenn in the hotel room

"I didn't know you didn't want her to go" He says lying. "You know if I had known you didn't want her going I would have stopped her."

Ty

"I don't need this sh!t right now. Daniel is alive and Mona is still missing. You need to get better Tino. ASAP. We are losing money out here."

Santino

"I'm trying boss. I am getting my strength back. My therapist is on her way." Ty doesn't say anything and walks out. After Ty walks out, his father Karl walks in.

Karl

"I'm glad you are recovering well.'

Santino

"Thank you Mr. Hutchins."

Karl

"So why don't you tell me what really happened between you and Jenn in Cleveland?"

Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean

Mona Island

Mona and Sharan are lip locking. Sharan thinks to her self "I just have to get this madwoman to trust me. I have to lure her into a false sense of security. It's my only way of having any chance of escaping." Mona pulls back from Sharan's lips and looks into her eyes.

Sharan

"Did I do something wrong?"

Mona

"Not at all. Everything is perfect. You're so beautiful."

Sharan

"Thank you. Let's get to know one another some more."

Mona

"How do you want to do that?"

Sharan

"By talking." Mona's cell phone rings

Mona

"Hold on sexy lady." Mona answers, it's The Lady in Red

LiR

"I am tired of waiting for what I want. When are you coming back to Pasadena?"

Mona

"In a day or so. I have to take care of a few things here. Where is Daniel?"

LiR

"Ty found him. He's in the hospital."

Mona

"Good. I bet Ty is going bonkers. And Chris is dead right?"

LiR

"Yes he is."

Mona

"Good, and Alexis is still in jail?"

LiR

"Yes she is. It was not supposed to happen like that. Sabryn and Bryan still roam the streets."

Mona

"Listen, just give them a little scare till I get there. Get all the info you can on them. When I get there I will call." Mona hangs up

Sharan

"Are you going some where?"

Mona

"Why are you going to miss me?"

Sharan

"Actually I am."

Mona

"You know this sure is a sudden change of heart you are having. Minutes ago, you were just telling me that you would not love me and that you're not even a lesbian. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you are trying to set me up."

Sharan

"You're giving me no choice but to force me to love you. So if there is any change of heart, it's because you have left me no other option."

Mona

"You're right about that."

Sharan

"Let's talk."

Mona

"What do you want to talk about?"

Sharan

"You."

"Hey Ria. Where have you been? I have been trying to call you."

Ria

"I was in Cleveland. Jenn had something to take care of."

Natalia

"Jenn? I didn't know you two hung out like that.'

Ria

"Yea girl. Let me tell you, I met this broke ass pimp in Cleveland."

Natalia

"A broke pimp?"

Ria

"I know right. But he knew what he was doing with his dick though. He show' know how to lick my pu$$y good."

Natalia

"You are crazy. I am glad you are back."

Ria

"So what's up with Alexis? She still in jail?"

Natalia

"She sure is. And I have a hunch she will be there for a long time."

Ria

"I hope so."

Natalia

"Me to."

Ria

"So she's letting you run the company?"

Natalia

"She sure is. She really didn't have a choice. I have a half million dollar investment in this company."

Ria

"So when's the fashion show?"

Natalia

"Tomorrow. I need you to get fitted for my show piece."

Ria

"I can't wait girl. I am so honored to be wearing one of your dresses."

Natalia

"Finally. My dream of being a major fashion designer are about to happen. I can't wait till the world sees what I have to offer."

Ria

"I know that's right. I'll go to wardrobe and try on the dress. I'll give you a call later."

Natalia

"Do that. We need to talk."

Ria

"Ok girl. Is something the matter?"

Natalia

"Maybe" Thinking of Rufus

Pasadena Police Station

Abe

"So you know about Mona. What are you going to do with that info?"

Mike

"Chief I just want to know why? Why did you fake your daughter's death and molest her?"

Abe, doesn't answer at first

"……..It's very complicated."

Mike

"Then uncomplicated it. You were a man of integrity and respect. I looked up to you."

Abe

"What do you want me to say Mike? I have had to deal with this for 24 years. I am not proud of what I did. I regret it every single moment that passes by. I don't know how to fix it. I don't know where to go from here. Ty is black mailing me. Crimes have been committed and the wrong people have been accused tried and died "

Mike

"You mean Chris?"

Abe

"Yes. It's all because of me. I did this. I created this monster."

Mike

"So Mona is the one behind all the crazy that's been happening in Pasadena?"

Abe

"Pretty much. Mona and Ty have my hands tied. Right along with his father. I tried to resign but he wouldn't let me."

Mike

"Why couldn't you come tell me? Maybe I could have helped you."

Abe

"I couldn't really talk about what I did. I didn't want to admit or deal with it. I was hoping everything would dissipate or that Ty was playing a sick joke on me."

Mike

"So this Mona is actually your daughter then?"

Abe

"Yes, I dug up her grave and I found no body. When Mona and Ty confronted me about her identity, she did have a paternity results paper with her. So it's true, the daughter I tortured, and molested is alive. And she has an ax to grind."

Mike

"I would too if you did those things to me." Mike stands up becoming frustrated. "I still cant believe this. I am having a hard time digesting all this."

Abe

"I just want to apologize for firing you."

Mike

"Don't worry about it man. It all worked out for me. I am running my own business now. I'm a private investigator."

Abe

"I'm glad to hear it. But you still haven't told me what your going to do with what you know"

Mike

"I want to help Chief. I have a personal vendetta against Tyler and I want to bring him down. I think we can help each other do that."

Abe

"Even if we bring Ty down, the fact that Mona is still out there somewhere remains. There is no telling what she will do next."

Mike

"Then we have to find out. We have to find Mona."

Back at Huntington Memorial

Diego's office,

Diego

"So you said this was about Natalia Ms.."

Rufus

Oh please call me Rufus. And yes it is about her. I saw you two having a heated discussion at The Jump Off one night. In fact, I gathered you have something over her head."

Diego

"And what makes you think that?"

Rufus

"I know what I saw. I am in the same game you are. To take Natalia out. She has something that belongs to me.'

Diego

"Interesting. So if I do decide to help you, what's in it for me?"

Rufus

"I like how that sounds. I don't have nothing to offer. I live out out of my car, but I do got good mouth skills."

Diego

"You can keep that."

Rufus

"That's to bad. You don't know what your missing. I can rock your world."

Diego

"My world doesn't need rocked. So tell me what Natalia has that you want?"

Rufus

"That's personal, but if you show me some skin, I just may tell you."

Diego

"I'm going to say this one time, if I do decide to help you, you're going to have to stop the come on's. I'm not interested. What are you anyway?"

Rufus

"I'm a human, the same as you."

Diego

"If I didn't know better, I'd say you were a man in a dress."

Rufus

"I'm a woman."

Diego

"Right" He writes down a name on a piece of paper and hands it to her

Rufus

"What's this?" Reading the paper

Diego

"Her name is Suga. She will help you get dirt on Natalia. You just have to find her."

Rufus

"Oh thank you. Finally a break through. If you ever need me to repay you, my mouth is waiting. Besides, every man has at least thought about being with another man once."

Diego

"Well not this one. You're going to pay me back, but not in the form you'd hope. Now get out of here and go get Natalia"

Rufus

"Will do"

Outside Diego's office, was Kiko, having heard the entire odd conversation,he hides around a corner as Rufus makes his way out of Diego's office.

Jenn

"Ty your hurting me."

Ty

"You deserve it. I can't believe you went behind my back and went to Cleveland after I told you not to. And you even took Santino. H's recovering from 2^nd degree burns. What in the hell are you thinking?"

Jenn

"Ty I am sorry. I told you this trip was important to me."

Ty

"And you being here in Pasadena was important to me. I give you everything and all I ask is for is a little respect."

Jenn

"I can't believe you're this upset."

Ty

"Believe it." He punches her in the jaw.

"I'm Ike and your Tina. Do I need to take my boot off and beat you with it?"

Jenn wipes blood from her mouth, as she can't believe Ty just hit her. With the pain still stinging in her face, Jenn kicks Ty in his groin.

Ty, barely able to speak, holding his family jewels

"I'm going to get you for that bitch!" He jumps on top of her and begins to strangle her!………

Mona Island,

As Sharan jumps into the ocean and tries to make a mad dash for it, Mona pulls out a bow and arrow and aims at Sharan. Releasing the string, the arrow hit's Sharan shoulder and immediately Sharan becomes weak, and starts to sink below the surface. Mona jumps in to rescue her queen from drowning. Once Mona grabs Sharan, she swims back to shore. She drags Sharan onto the beach and lays her on the sand.

Mona

"You can't escape from me baby. I'm never going to let you go. You need to realize that."

Sharan, coughing up water

"You're a psycho!"

Mona

"But a well planned one." She leans in to try and kiss Sharan. She backs away

Sharan

"I'm not going to love you. I'm not a lesbian, so all this is pointless."

Mona

"But you got some good pu$$y though. I see why Kevin and Dondre were fighting over you."

Sharan

"They are not fighting over me."

Mona

"Keep telling yourself that. The night I took you, you and Kevin were having an argue ment about Dondre right?"

Sharan

"That's none of your damn business."

Mona

"I love you. Everything about you is my business. You belong to me now."

Sharan

"Why me? Why couldn't you love some one else. I am sure you can find some one that will love you back. Because that will never be me."

Mona

"I've worked to hard for too long to just give you up. "

Sharan

"You can say that again. Kidnapping me, blowing up that submarine. How did you do all that? You couldn't have done all this by yourself?"

Mona

"You're right. But we don't need to talk about that right now."

Sharan, stares at Mona

"How are we going to live on this island? We don't have food, toiletries"

Mona

"There's food here. There's all kind of wild animals here."

Sharan

"Wild animals?"

Mona

"Were going back to the stone age. We'll have to hunt, use leaves to wash up. It's nothing new to the human race."

Sharan

"SO you did all this for me huh?"

Mona

"Yes I did. I love you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." To Mona's surprise, Sharan leans in and kisses Mona.

Westwood Park

Mark gets a knock on his door. He opens it to see Rufus.

Mark

"What are you doing here? I am not in the mood."

Rufus

"I am lover. " She says walking into his house.

"I've missed you all day."

Mark

"We haven't seen each other in over five years, you're making a big deal out of today?"

Rufus

"I want it lover" She says walking up on Mark. She places her hand on Mark's crotch

Mark

"Get off me dude. I don't get down like that no more."

Rufus

"You know that's not true. You know you miss my head skills. You used to always tell me no one has ever sucked you off like I could. Don't you want to feel that again lover?" She says sill continuing to rub on Mark's dick, making it grow in size. Rufus slowly un buttons Mark's pants, as Mark has flash backs in his mind of old times with Rufus. In a motel, Rufus is on her knees deep throating Mark's cock. Mark remembers how great it used to feel to have all 8 inches of his dick down Rufus's throat

Rufus

"Let me taste it lover. Cum down my throat." She says pulling Mark's dick out. Rufus squats down and lick's Mark's love stick. Mark closes his eyes and immediately gets a rush through his body.

Rufus licks the tip of his dick as Mark places his hand on the back of Rufus's head and slowly pushes his dick further and further down his gay lovers throat. Rufus begins to gag, which turns Mark on as he moves Rufus's head faster and faster.

Mark

"Yea girl, Make that mouth tighter…Ahh yea" He says in complete ecstasy. In a moment of pleasure, Mark forgets everything around him, being hypnotized with good dick licking session.

Mark

"I'm bout to cum" Rufus shoves Mark's dick all the way in her mouth so Mark's sperm can run down her throat. Mark begins to quiver.

Mark

"Damn that felt good."

TC Hotel,

"Jenn what the hell is going on? I cannot believe you went behind my back and went on your little trip after I told you not too. I can't wait till you get back here. I'm going to have to teach you a lesson you'll never forget." Ty hangs up his phone and sits at his desk. He exhales. Jodie walks into his office. Ty smiles and feels more relaxed upon seeing her

Ty

"Your are the person I wanted to see."

Jodie

"Is that so? Something the matter?"

Ty

"No, nothing I can't handle. Just seeing you sometimes puts me at ease."

Jodie

"I guess I am glad I can do that for you. It seems like you need a friend to talk to."

Ty

"I'm not the talking type. "

Jodie, intrigued

"Then what type of man are you?"

Ty

"A man that always get's what he wants." Ty gets up with a smirk, knowing that is the same line he used on Jennifer when he was trying to woo her from Mike.

Jodie

"What do you want?"

Ty, up in her face, grabbing her shoulders and caressing them. He blows on her neck.

"I want you."

Jodie, looks into Ty's eyes

"What about Jenn?"

Ty

"What about Mike?"

Ty then kisses Jodie passionately.

Jenn continues to massage Santino's shoulders. As they both listen to the moans and groans and bed squeaking thanks to Ria and DC, Jenn fantasies of confronting Jodie about being a prostitute. "Wait till I drop the news to Mike and Ty. Then she will be out of my life finally." Jenn's thoughts are interrupted by Santino speaking

"That feels so good. You really know what you are doing."

Jenn

"I should be. I went to school for massotherapy."

Santino

"I never knew that."

Jenn

"There's a lot you don 't know about me."

Karl

"Sit down boy. Your driving me insane with all that pacing."

Ty

"I wish You would stop riding my ass. That's all you have done since you got home from prison. You couldn't even to tell me thank you for getting you out."

Karl

"Thank you? You can't be serious. Look at how long it took you."

Ty

"At least your out."

Karl

"I am your father. I gave you everything you had. This life, this name. You are rich and have many people on your payroll. That didn't happen over night."

Ty

"It certainly didn't happen all the nights you were in jail. Leaving me to fend for myself."

Karl

"Just spare me. Life happens. You had my people protecting you. You were never in no danger."

Ty

"All that doesn't mean nothing to me. All I wanted was you, my father." He says getting louder, He pulls back, knowing, he is a man that never loses his cool but that seems to be hard lately. First he thought Daniel was dead and now it seems he's not.

Back at Westwood Park.

Lauren lays past out on her sofa with the empty bottle of Gin laying next to her. She hears her doorbell and jumps up. She screams out in pain as her head begins to throb. The continuous chimes from the door bell get's Lauren aggravated. "I'll be there damn it!" She hollers out, slowly getting up and making her way to the door way. She can't see who it is as she opens the door due to the bright early morning sun shining in her face like a nuclear bomb going off

"Lauren, are you ok?"

Lauren, recognizing the voice

"Bryan, is that you?"

Bryan

"Yes, Sabryn and I are here."

Lauren

"I can't take this sun. Please come in." Sabryn and Bryan enter the house. They both notice the gallon of gin bottle that lays on the floor empty.

Bryan

"I see you took the news pretty hard."

Lauren

"What news?"

Sabryn

"Chris was put to death last night"

Bryan

"We came over to make sure you were ok. You have been through a lot."

Lauren instantly has a flashback of having sex with Kevin last night

"Yes I have. I am glad he is gone. He's a murderer."

Bryan

"Lauren do you honestly believe that?"

Lauren

"The court believed it."

Bryan

"I'm not going to argue with you. I know in my gut Chris was innocent."

Lauren

"Good because I'm not in the mood to argue."

Sabryn

"Lauren please. Bryan is trying to show some compassion. No need to be rude."

Lauren

"Didn't you run over Ashley? Shouldn't you be in jail?"

Sabryn

"I'm going to ignore that one." She looks at Bryan. "Hurry this up."

As Sabryn says that, Lauren's phone rings. She picks it up and answers it.

"Why are you calling me?......" Then Lauren faints. Bryan catches her. Sabryn picks up the phone and hears Ty's voice

Sabryn

"Tyler? It's Sabryn. What's going on?"

Ty

"Daniel is alive. I found him last night."

Sabryn, to Bryan

"Your right. Chris was innocent. Tyler found Daniel last night."

Bryan

"What!!?? It's too late!! Chris is already dead. No!! NO!! God No!!! This can't be happening."

The Williams House

In the kitchen, Sister Pat is sipping on some coffee as she reads the front page of the newspaper. She reads about Chris's death.

"Poor man. It's too bad he could not have been saved in time. He should have gotten a new lawyer or something. I knew my third eye was right about him. Lord have Mercy, What kind of world do we live in." Sister Pat puts her coffee down and walks over to the living room and looks out the window . She looks at the house where she dropped the picnic basket of food off last night." I hope Miss Jenkins like what I made her. She can be so damn picky." Then Abe walks into the room.

Abe

"Good morning"

Pat

"It's not for me. I've waited all night to hear about what you have to tell me about Kelis. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't even pray."

Abe, getting the guts, to finally fess up to what he did to their daughter sits down on the couch. Just before he speaks, his cell phone rings.

"Williams here.......I'll be right there."

Pat rolling her eyes

"Just like always."

Abe

"This is big. Ty found Daniel last night."

Pat

"Lord have mercy. Wait till Miss Jenkins hear about this."

Abe

"Who in the hell is this Miss Jenkins you have been talking about? No one has never seen her."

Pat walks up to Abe and slaps him

"Don't know one, talk about Miss Jenkins." She slaps him again.

Abe

"I really don't know why we still are married." Abe grabs his keys and leaves.

Pat

"Simple Bastard. I don't know why neither. Always acting a damn fool." Pat grabs her keys and her Holy water and leaves the house as well.
