Episode 5


Alleyway (far from Salem) -

Shawn watched helplessly as two policemen ran over. “What the hell am I going to do?” He asked himself.

He was locked in the vehicle from the outside. The police used these alarmed cars to catch thieves trying drive away in someone else’s car. “And I walked right into the trap,” Shawn said.

The door was yanked open and one of the cops hauled Shawn from the car. “You’re under arrest,” the cop said, and forced Shawn to turn around so he could pat him down.

“You must think you’re pretty slick,” the other one said. “Trying to steal a car. But you didn’t succeed, you little punk.”

The cop holding him began to read him the Miranda rights and slapped on hand cuffs. I’ve got to do something quick, Shawn thought. But what?

Shawn kicked his leg back into the groin of the officer holding him. The cop doubled over screaming profanities. The other cop tried to reach for Shawn but he swung his leg out and tripped the cop.

Shawn began to run even as the cops began firing at him. He dodged the bullets by running in a zigzag fashion the way his father had taught him.

Just as he was turning the corner, he felt a bullet whiz by his head and then another one bit into his shoulder.

Motel Room –

“Where is he?” Belle wondered. She looked down at Claire who was playing on the floor with some blocks Shawn had bought for her. “Where is your daddy?

“He’s been gone for over two hours,” she said. She turned to bargaining with God. “Lord, if you keep Shawn and Claire safe I will try very hard to live a good and decent life.”

Belle was full to bursting with frustration even after her impromptu prayer. “C’mon, Shawn, come home to your daughter and me.”

***

Mickey’s Office –

Mickey was sitting at his desk, listening to old big band music. He had a big stack of paperwork in front of him. But when he picked them up, none of them seemed to make sense to him. “Legal, regal, squeal ...” he chanted.

Soon enough he stopped chanting and went back to trying to make sense of the papers on his desk. “Defendant, docket, criminal intent … Oh blast it all, I don’t know what this all means,” he shouted, shoving the papers off his desk just as Maggie walked in.

“Mickey,” Maggie said. “What’s wrong?”

“I don’t know,” Mickey replied. “I just got annoyed.”

Maggie put a basket of food on his desk. “I brought you some lunch because you’ve been working so hard lately.”

“Thank you, my dear Laura,” Mickey said, smiling up at her. He plucked an apple from the basket.

“Laura?” Maggie said. “You called me Laura.”

Mickey looked up. “So?”

“Laura is the name of your ex-wife.”

“Oh yes of course – you’re Maggie,” he said.

He bit into an apple. “Oh disgusting – I hate apples.”

“Since when?” Maggie asked.

Mickey didn’t reply. He threw the offensive apple at a stack of folders on top of the file cabinet. They came crashing to the floor.

“Mickey, what is going on with you today?” Maggie asked.

He shrugged. “What did I tell you? I hate apples.”

Maggie began picking up the papers Mickey had knocked to the ground. “Mickey, I think you should come home now.”

“Why? I’ve still got work to do.”

“You can do it tomorrow,” Maggie said. “Come home with me.”

“Okay, Laura, but I’m driving.”

Maggie sighed. “I think under the circumstances I should drive,” Maggie said.

***

Sami and Lucas’s Apt. -

“Well, Carrie, are you going to answer my question?” Sami demanded. “What the hell are you doing here?”

“Sami, I didn’t come here to cause trouble.”

“I’m sure,” Sami said sarcastically. “Where’s Austin? Did he finally wise up and dumb your trashy butt?”

Carrie tried to interject but Sami wouldn’t let her. “If your marriage went south, don’t think you can just come here and start up with Lucas again.”

“I’m not trying to steal Lucas from you,” Carrie said. “I just want to talk.”

“We don’t want to hear anything you have to say,” Sami said. “We’re getting married tomorrow and you are not going to ruin it.”

“I wouldn’t even try,” Carrie said. “What I have to say concerns both of you.”

“Just leave,” Sami said. She turned away and went back inside.

“Lucas, I –“ Carrie started to say.

“I think you should leave now,” Lucas said. “Right now neither of us wants to see you. Have a nice life.” He then shut the door in her face.

“I just want to make things right,” Carrie muttered as she walked away.

Max’s Autobody Shop –

“What’s going on here?” Mimi asked, trying to sound unconcerned.

“Nothing,” Max said, pulling away from Abby. “We were just kidding around.” He walked over to Mimi and gave her a kiss.

Abby frowned. “I’ll be in the office if you need me,” she said. “Which I doubt.”

Once Abby had shut the door, Mimi said: “Wow. You should have seen the way she looked at you.”

“What do you mean?”

“I mean, she clearly adores you,” Mimi said.

“We’re like brother and sister,” Max said.

“Yeah right,” Mimi said. “I can tell she’s hung up on you and I can’t help but wonder if you feel the same way.” Mimi turned her back and walked over to the car sitting in the shop. “This is a nice car,” she said.

“Hey, don’t change the subject,” Max said. He wrapped his arms around her waist. “The only girl I want is the one in my arms right now.”

“I am not sure if I believe you or not,” Mimi said. “But it feels nice to hear you say that.”

They kissed.

Abby was watching from the office window. “Damn you, Max Brady. You’re not going to play with my heart ever again.”

Chez Rouge –

“Fancy seeing you here,” Roman said, walking over to Kate who was drinking at the bar.

Kate rolled her eyes. “Can you just leave me alone please? I’m not in the mood.”

Roman slid into the seat next to hers. “How many of those have you had?”

“Not enough to make me sleep with you if that’s what you’re thinking.”

Roman chuckled. “I’m actually here with a date.”

Kate looked around. “Oh? She would have to be deaf, blind, and really dumb to go out with you.”

“You used to think I was great,” Roman said.

“That’s before I sobered up,” Kate said.

“Ha ha.” He looked around. “And where’s your date?”

“Just shut up,” Kate said.

“Oh so you’re alone tonight,” Roman said, laughing.

“Yeah, so what?”

“Who is going to drive you home? You can’t drive in your condition.”

“I’ll get a taxi – now do you mind leaving me alone?”

“You’re pretty messed up about Lucas and Sami marrying tomorrow, aren’t you?”

Kate sighed. “Yes I am. But I’m trying to get over my hatred for your daughter.”

“Hate is a strong word,” Roman said. “But I thought it was really nice of you to help out yesterday at the church. I’m sure Sami appreciated it.”

“Oh I’m sure,” Kate said sarcastically. “Now leave me alone. Go find your simpleton of a date.”

“Oh there’s my date! Rachel, over here!” he called.

A very attractive blonde woman walked over. Kate’s mouth dropped. His date was a knock-out! What does Roman have on her? Why would she agree to go out with the big oaf? Kate wondered.

“Rachel, this is Kate Roberts,” Roman said. “Kate, this is Rachel Willis.”

“Hello,” Rachel said.

“Hello,” Kate said.

“Rachel is a doctor. She graduated magna cum laude from Harvard,” Roman gloated – as if to say, ha ha beat that, Kate!

“That’s nice,” Kate said. She got up from her seat. “I’m bored. I’m going home.”

“See you tomorrow, bright and early,” Roman chirped.

He grinned while Rachel frowned. He didn’t notice it though, because he was too happy thinking he had made Kate jealous.

***

Motel Room –

Belle was sitting on the bed, holding a now sleeping Claire in his arms. Suddenly she heard someone kick the door. “Ohmigod, what if it’s Philip – what if he’s found us?” she worried.

Then she calmed temporarily when Shawn spoke. “Belle, it’s me – Shawn, open up!”

Belle laid Claire down and went to the door. She unlocked it and pulled it open. She let him in. She nearly screamed when she saw the blood on Shawn’s shirt and noticed that he had handcuffs on.

“What happened?” She asked. “Are you okay?”

“Some cops took shots at me,” Shawn said. “Find something to open these handcuffs.”

“Did they follow you back here?”

“No I lost them thankfully.”

Belle got tweezers out of her purse. She used them to unlock the cuffs. They fell to the ground. He moaned softly.

“Shawn, we’ve got to get the bullet out,” Belle said. “But how?”

“See those tweezers?” Shawn said. “You can remove them with this.”

Belle grimaced and followed him to the bathroom.
