Episode #291 - Monday, January 22, 2007:

• Austin, Sami, Will, Carrie, Lucas, Marlena, Andy, John, Belle, Shawn, Bo, Billie, Caroline, Eric, Roman, Alice, Maggie, Sarah, Melissa, Frankie, Kayla, Steve, Georgia, Max, Cassie, Jack, Abby, Philip, Victor, and Kate all gather at the court house to hear the verdict in Sami’s trial for Alan’s murder.
• Vivian bursts into the courtroom and screams: "STOP! Your honor, STOP! Sami has committed her worst crime yet! She kidnapped her own sister’s baby boy and made her think he was dead!”
• Sami’s mouth drops open, as do the mouths of Marlena, Carrie, Austin, Lucas, Kate, and Will. Sami’s eyes bug out and her mouth hangs open. *FREEZE FRAME.*
• OPENING.
• The judge calls for order as everybody is in shock and whispering and talking to one another.
• Carrie stands and approaches Vivian and asks her what she means. Austin’s face still screams shock and awe.
• Vivian lashes out at Sami calling her a b!tch, a liar, and manipulative witch who has sunk to a new low by stealing Carrie’s baby and making her think it was dead!
• Carrie approaches Sami, grabs her, and lifts her out of her chair, asking her what the hell Vivian is talking about. Carrie shakes Sami.
• Sarah realizes she has a great story on her hands, and Jack warns her not to dare report on this, for the sake of the Brady’s.
• Jan asks Willow what the hell she wants. Willow tells Jan she (Willow) gave her baby Trey for a huge amount of money - and now she wants even more! Willow says Jan better pay up, or she’s going to tell Jan’s man everything!
• Sami shouts that Vivian is lying and shoves Carrie off of her. Sami sheds some tears and says she can’t believe Carrie would believe such horrible accusations about her! Sami points out that Vivian has a long history of lies and deceit.
• Lucas stands and jumps to Sami’s defense saying this can’t be true because the day Carrie gave birth was the same day of Will’s 18th birthday party, and he spent every second of the day with Sami on that day! Sami chimes in saying that is exactly true!
• Carrie realizes Lucas and Sami are right and turns to Vivian. Carrie accuses Vivian of being up to her old tricks. And Victor asks Vivian what the hell she is up to. Vivian says she swears on it!
• The Brady’s and the judge tell Vivian to get the hell out of the courtroom. Sami is relieved that she has gotten away with her scheme once again. Lucas kisses Sami. And they both sit. Austin and Carrie are both in shock, having just heard their son was alive. Marlena and Roman are relieved to hear this was all a lie. An officer approaches Vivian about removing her from the courtroom.
• Jan informs Willow that she doesn’t have the baby anymore because her little lie and their little deal was found out! Willow asks Jan who has the baby, and Jan refuses to say. Willow grabs Jan and demands she tell her. They begin struggling.
• Philip quickly leaves the courtroom and meets with another judge secretly. Philip offers the man a payment in exchange for his services.
• As the bailiff is removing Vivian from the courtroom, Simone bursts into the door, telling him to stop! Simone says everything Vivian has told them is true! Carrie asks who Simone is. Victor says it’s Ivan’s niece, Vivian’s assistant! Marlena says not to believe her because she is probably full of lies like Vivian and Ivan, and Sami concurs! Simone says: “I am more just Ivan’s niece or Vivian’s assistant!“…Simone says as she approaches Carrie and Austin. “I am the woman who has been raising YOUR child as my own! Because this B!TCH told me he was unwanted! It was all a god damn lie!”…Simone screams as she lunges at Sami. “UGH!!!! YOU B!TCH! I’M GONNA MAKE YOU PAY FOR THIS!”….she yells as she reaches for Sami with her hands out in claw formation trying to scratch Sami or grab her hair. Sami backs off, and Lucas steps in between the two women and holds Simone back. “Listen, Lady.”…Lucas says. “I don’t know who the hell you are, but we already have been through this! Sami has an alibi for this day! She was at her son’s birthday party with ME!” Simone laughs. “How does this whore have you all so blinded? Sami had help! She had an accomplice!”…Simone declares. The courtroom gasps. “A woman named….Annie Douglas!” Eric is taken aback at the mention of his ex-girlfriend’s name. “Annie must have been the one to steal the baby!”…Simone exclaims. Lucas, Austin, Carrie, Marlena, and Roman refuses to believe it and stand by Sami saying Simone and Vivian are a bunch of liars. “Here! See for yourself!”…Simone yells as she throws papers at Carrie, and they land at her feet. She picks them up and begins reading. Austin and Lucas ask what she is reading. Sami fears for her life. The look of worry and panic on her face is nothing like anyone has ever seen on her face before. She is petrified like never before. Marlena, Roman, and John look at her face and look at each other…they know the truth. Simone says… “It’s the proof you morons need to see Sami Brady is a lying, manipulative, kidnapping, evil b!tch! It’s my son’s…your son’s medical file. And Carrie’s. It’s proof that I am raising your son!” Carrie reads the paper. Austin and Lucas look on. A tear hits the paper. It’s Carrie’s. Carrie wipes away the tear. She turns around to face Sami. Sami says: “Carrie, look. She’s a liar. The papers can be faked. I-”…Sami is interrupted as Carrie screams and takes a step towards Sami and CLOCKS Sami across the face with her fist. Sami falls to the ground. She touches her face where Carrie has hit her. She looks up. Carrie screams… “I’M GONNA KILL YOU!”…Carrie leaps onto Sami. *FREEZE FRAME.*
