So many secrets in Springfield....



Harley's House:



Cyrus walks Susan inside, "Okay Harley thinks you were visiting Dylan for a couple of days."
Susan nods, "Cyrus I just want to thank you. I know it's going to be a while but this was a good start going up to the cabin."
Cyrus sighs, "Well I'm mad that Olivia just abandoned you guys. I'm going up later to clean up the mess."
She turns to him, "I'm fine. I mean Gus and I got through it and I think we're both going to be okay."

Harley walks downstairs.
Susan smiles, "Mom hey."
A depressed Harley looks over, "Hi."
Harley has been depressed since she gave up Belinda.
Cyrus walks over, "So I was thinking we could maybe go out and get a bite to eat today."
Harley shakes her head, "No. I'm supposed to go back to work today. I've been away for to long."
He shakes his head, "No. I don't think so. I mean can't you take another day off. You don't seem to be back to yourself."
Harley sighs, "You know what Cyrus? I don't think it will be a while before I can be happy again. So please just leave me alone okay. I've got to get ready for work."
Cyrus is worried about her.



Marina's House:


Marina walks inside from her Doctor's appointment.
She bumps into Shayne.
He drops his tuxedo on the floor, "Sorry."
She nods, "The big day is coming up right? And you haven't told Rocky what is going on have you?"
Shayne shakes his head, "No I haven't."
She looks down at him, "Shayne, you need to be honest for once. Tell Rocky that you two are getting kicked out of my house. And that I'm not going to give either of you custody of my child. Then you can tell it's because you slept with me in order to get back at him."
Shayne stands up, "Marina please. Rocky and I are having our ceremony soon. Please just wait until after we have had that then we can all try to work through this."
Marina shakes her head, "There is nothing to work through. You used me. You've been using me this whole time. I'm not going to give you my child. I will raise my baby on my own."
He sighs, "Marina you are making a mistake."
She scoffs, "I'm making a mistake. You are lying to your boyfriend. You plan to marry Rocky while you have all of these lies up in the air? Why do you think this is a good idea?"
Shayne sighs, "Because. I will not lose him to anyone else."
Shayne picks up his stuff and walks away.



Pond:



Rocky is walking around.
He is trying to find a place where he can relax.
He is supposed to be writing his vows.
But every time it just messes up.
Something isn't right.
Rocky looks out onto the pond.
He sits and talks to himself, "Why? Why can't anyone see that I'm not happy? Why am I supposed to through my life with this lie hanging over me? No one in my family even notices that something is wrong..."
Suddenly he hears footsteps behind him.

Kevin walks up, "I didn't expect to see you here."
Rocky is stunned, "Kevin... is this for real?"
Kevin nods, "Yep. What brings you here?"
Rocky sighs, "I'm writing my vows. Shayne and I are having our ceremony soon. And I need to get this done."
Kevin looks at the blank pages, "Looks like it's empty. Is that how you feel about Shayne."
Rocky shakes his head, "You weren't supposed to be here. I was supposed to have alone time here."
Kevin looks at him, "God works in mysterious ways."
Rocky shakes his head, "Kevin I'm about to commit the rest of my life to Shayne."
Kevin sighs, "It sounds more like sentencing. Your punishment for wanting me? I don't think that sounds fair to anybody."
Rocky can't believe he is alone with Kevin again.



Lewis Fashion:



Marah is working.
Rue walks in, "Hello Marah. Can we talk?"
Marah looks up, "You. You bitch. You have got some nerve showing your face here again."
Rue sighs, "I'm sorry. I know you must hate me right now."
Marah nods, "You are damn right I do! Jeffrey told me everything. You were working with my Aunt Cassie the entire time. You were just a dirty little mole trying to take me down? What the hell did I ever do to you? Other than try and be your friend."
Rue nods, "I understand. But you have understand who I was when I got here. The person I was before wouldn't just stand here and let you yell at me. I would have smacked you and called you every name in the book. But I have changed."
Marah laughs, "I'm supposed to believe that you have just had some magic personality makeover?"
Rue shakes her head, "No. No this one came from my 'Fairy Godmother'."
Marah is confused, "What are you talking about?"
Rue sighs, "Cassandra. She taught be a lot before she was gone. And I have learned so much. I need to make amends."
Marah shoves her, "You need to leave!"
Rues stops her, "Listen to me! There is stuff you need to know."
Marah stares at her.



Farmhouse:


Jonathan is making breakfast for Sarah.
Liz walks into the kitchen, "So where is she?"
Jonathan turns, "Who?"
She sighs, "You know."
He nods, "Aubrey went to run some errands. She said she thought I should have some time with you and Sarah."
Liz laughs, "I'm so sure."
Jonathan nods, "She did. Aubrey has been great lately."
Liz walks over, "Whatever. Listen we need to talk about something. I'm making an announcement soon that I think you should know about."
Jonathan turns to her, "What's going on?"
Liz nods, "Well as you know there is a lot of stuff going on with my family. The whole business thing."
Jonathan nods, "Yeah my mother told me some stories about Annie Dutton. She sounds like a real nutcase."
She sighs, "Yes. Well you see my father is running for CEO against Annie. And so is my uncle Alan Michael. Which at first I thought was a good thing. But there is a good chance that Alan Michael could win. And then my side of the family will be washed over."
He looks at her, "What are you saying Liz?"
Liz sighs, "Jonathan. I'm going to try and save the company for me, my siblings, and Sarah. I'm going to run for CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
Jonathan's mouth drops, "Are you kidding me?"
Liz worries about how he is taking this.



Beacon:


Aubrey is in a room with Rafe.
The two are ripping off each other's clothes.
Aubrey grins, "This is working out well. Jonathan is not going to be happy when he finds out that Liz is going after the company."
Rafe kisses her neck, "So you left them alone so Liz could have time to tell him?"
She nods, "I really wanted to see the fight but I didn't want to get in the way. Oh God this is brilliant."
Rafe takes off his shirt, "We're brilliant. You get your husband back. I get my cousin's help in taking the company."
Aubrey giggles, "It's always turns me on when you talk about the plan."
Rafe squeezes her, "It makes me turned on even more when things work out the way they are supposed to. Now we get to celebrate."
She grins, "Maybe we should wait until Liz is back in the Spaulding Mansion where she belongs."
Rafe laughs, "Oh no. We deserve this. We are the master manipulators! Everything is working out perfectly. Liz is going to be away from him for good."
Aubrey looks at him, "Oh say it again."
Rafe grins, "Oh her ass is going to be on the curb when you get home!"
Aubrey jumps on him, "And her little dog too!"
Rafe rips off her fake baby bump.
The two of them fall onto the bed and have hot sex.

PART TWO:

Lewis Fashion:
Marah looks at Rue, "What the hell could you possibly tell me that I don't already know?"
Rue sighs, "I was close with Cassandra for a while. She was like a sister to me. I learned a lot from her."
Marah nods, "Why do I care about that?"
Rue sits down, "I confided a lot in her. And she did the same for me. I was told a lot of information."
Marah laughs, "Oh I get it. You are threatening me right? How much do you want? I'll just write you a check then you can leave town and never come back again."
Rue shakes her head, "That is not what this is. I know that this town has changed me in a lot. Maybe it's just being here but I feel the need to tell you something. It's about Jeffrey."
Marah sits at her desk, "Listen. I've gotten used to Jeffrey's secrets. He's got a past with working for the government. There is nothing you could tell me that would make me leave him."
Rue sighs, "I know that she wanted him to raise RJ. She made that decision right before she had the surgery."
Marah nods, "Jeffrey is a great guy. And he's dating me. I'm sure she realized that it made sense."
Rue shakes her head, "That's not why Marah. Listen your Aunt realized something shortly before she fell into a coma."
Marah is confused, "What is that?"
Rue sighs, "She still has feelings for Jeffrey."
Marah grows angry as these words come out of Rue's mouth.

Harley's House:
Harley is getting all of her stuff together.
Cyrus walks over, "I really think you should stay home today."
Harley shakes her head, "I've missed enough days. And now that Rusty is gone our acting Police Chief is a hard ass."
He nods, "I can go over and talk to him."
Harley turns to him, "No. Because I'm hoping that I will become the permanent replacement."
Cyrus is surprised, "You are going to be the Police Chief?"
Harley nods, "Yeah. I'm going to get a recommendation from Frank. I mean there's not a lot of competition for the job."
He looks at her, "I don't know. I mean that could be stressful."
She sighs, "Well I need the money. I have to support 3 kids, Susan, and you."
He looks at her, "Is that what this was about? I mean you know how hard it is for an ex con to get a job in this town. I'm really trying."
Harley looks down, "Maybe you should get a job somewhere else."
Cyrus can't believe his ears, "What are you saying?"
She sighs, "I don't know. I'm late."
Harley hurries out the door.
A heartbroken Cyrus walks upstairs to shower.
Meanwhile Susan sneaks out the backdoor.

Beacon:
Aubrey and Rafe lie in bed together.
Rafe grins, "That was even better than last time."
Aubrey gets up, "I know it was kid."
He looks at her, "What are you doing."
She picks up her clothes, "Getting dressed. I have to get home."
Rafe sighs, "I thought you were letting Liz have her alone time with Jonathan?"
She nods, "I am. But they will be done by the time I get there. I need to be there for Jonathan when he is upset. And you need to go back to the Spaulding Mansion and wait for Liz so you can help her carry her stuff back in where she belongs."
Rafe nods, "It's really happening isn't it? I mean who would have thought we could pull off something like this."
Aubrey sighs, "I had no idea I was capable of something like this. But this is a desperate time."
He gets out of bed, "Are you desperate?"
She nods, "Unfortunately I am."
He picks up her fake baby bump pillow and puts it around her, "You know he's going to find out eventually."
She shakes her head, "Hasn't this taught you anything? Don't under estimate what we can do."
After one last kiss Aubrey is out the door.

Marina's House:
Marina rubs her pregnant stomach.
She follows Shayne, "Is there something that you are forgetting to tell me Shayne?"
Shayne sighs, "Marina... I'm just stressed out okay. This will devastate Rocky. Do you really want to break his heart?"
She looks at him, "Honestly, I don't. I love my uncle. But he deserves to know the truth."
He sighs, "Is this really about Rocky or are you just trying to get back at me because your jealous of him?"
Marina walks away, "Go to hell!"
He follows her, "Marina I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. But this baby means so much to us. We've already fallen in love with it. We picked out baby names. We named it."
Marina shakes her head, "I don't care."
Shayne nods, "If it was a boy we were going to name it Joshua Cooper Lewis. If it was a girl we were going to name it Jenna after Rocky's mother. We already made the plans."
She sighs, "I'm sorry Shayne. But I shouldn't have let this go on as long as it has. At the end of the day this is not your baby with Rocky. It's my baby with Danny."
Shayne looks at her, "Marina please."
She shakes her head, "I'm sorry. If you don't tell him before the ceremony then I will."
Marina walks away.
Shayne has no idea what to do.

Pond:
Kevin looks at Rocky, "I know why we both ended up here. This is my one chance. My last chance to get everything in I need to say. To get you to understand."
Rocky backs up, "It doesn't make sense. I pushed you away. I did the right thing. I'm here trying to get ready for Shayne. Now you show up and it isn't the right..."
Kevin walks towards him, "Rocky we need to do this now. Before the ceremony. Because then you won't be able to do this anymore."
Rocky is confused, "Do what?"
Kevin sighs, "Go back and forth. You need to choose Rocky. Me or Shayne."
Rocky looks at him, "I've done that Kevin. Remember. I'm with Shayne again. I ended things with you before they began."
Kevin sighs, "Stop trying to do what it is right! Stop trying to please Shayne, your friends, and your family. Stop putting everyone elses needs before your own when it comes to your heart!"
Rocky shakes his head, "Kevin don't make this harder than it already is!"
Kevin looks into Rocky's eyes, "Just tell me! You want a chance to decide. This is it. What do you really want?"
Rocky sighs, "Shut up Kevin!"
Rocky grabs Kevin and kisses him.

Farmhouse:
Liz walks over to Jonathan, "Please don't get upset. Jonathan I'm sorry that this upsets you but it's what's best for everyone."
Jonathan nods, "I know."
Liz goes on, "And in the end you'll see that it's not.... Wait. What did you just say?"
Jonathan smiles, "I agree. I think this is going to be a good idea. If you're CEO then you have control of everything. You'll be able to keep everyone safe and secure."
Liz hugs him, "Oh my God! I can't believe you are agreeing to this! This is amazing."
He grins, "I mean it's dangerous but it's smart. You're doing what's best for Sarah. You are being a good mother Liz."
She smiles, "Do you really mean that? You think I'm being a good mother?"
Jonathan nods, "You are a great mother. I couldn't think of a better mother for Sarah."
Out of no where the two kiss.
Liz pulls away, "No. This isn't right. You are married to Aubrey. She's carrying your baby."
Jonathan sighs, "It would be so easy if I could just stay with Aubrey but... I don't think that's good for anyone. Once the baby is born I'm going to file for divorce."
Liz looks at him, "Do you mean it?"
He nods, "I do Liz."
The start to kiss.
Aubrey walks up to the front door.
She sees them threw the window.
She walks, "No. No that's not fair. She's supposed to be going back to the mansion instead she's screwing on the table with my husband!"
Aubrey is furious.
