ANOTHER WORLD EPISODE 69

Jake questions Vicky

BAY CITY CENTER

Frankie and Charlie sit at a table sipping coffee

Charlie: Mom I’m so sorry.

Frankie: It’s okay honey.

Charlie: I wasted so much time being angry with you.

Frankie: I left. I made you think that I had abandoned you. That wasn’t the case at all.

Charlie: When I saw Felicia crying over losing Mitch, I had to call you. I was frantic when I couldn’t get in touch with you.

Frankie: A lot’s been going on.

Charlie: I’m sure.

Frankie: Is Nicole still staying with you and Cass?

Charlie: Yeah.

Frankie: I’m gonna have a talk with your father.

Charlie: He told me everything.

Frankie: Then you know that she shouldn’t be there with you. She’s dangerous!

Charlie: I don’t think so.

Frankie: I don’t trust her.

Charlie: Where have you been all this time? Why didn’t you return my calls?

CASS’S HOUSE

Cass is in the living room when Nicole comes in the door.

Cass: Nicole, where the hell have you been? I’ve been worried sick about you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MCKINNONS HOUSE

Vicky is there with Donna sitting on the couch.

Donna: I spoke to your aunt.

Vicky: Nicole? How is she?

Donna: She’s fine.

Vicky: Is she still in Pinehaven?

Donna: No.

Vicky: She’s been released after all these years?

Donna: Apparently. She seems like she’s well now.

Vicky: I’m glad that she’s better.

Donna: She has a son.

Vicky: A son? When?

Donna: Allen Love.

Vicky: I read about him in the papers. He’s Nicole’s son?

Donna: She had him when she was sixteen, and your grandfather took him away from her.

Vicky: Wow then it stands to reason why she abused drugs and did all the things she did to Cass and Frankie. I know what it’s like to have your child taken away from you.

Jake walks in to Vicky’s surprise.

Donna: Jake hi! It’s wonderful to see you! I’m sure Vicky feels the same way!

Vicky: Donna?

Donna: I’m gonna give you two some time alone to work things out!

Donna leaves Jake and Vicky alone.

CASS’S HOUSE

Nicole: I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to make you feel that way. I’ve been staying with my son.

Cass: Do you think that’s a good idea? Because I don’t.

Nicole: If you’re talking about Reginald sending me back. I’ve already spoken to him.

Cass: And you’re still here so I guess he’s not gonna put you back in Pinehaven.

Nicole: No he’s not.

Cass: Just like that?

Nicole: Yeah pretty much.

Cass: There’s something else going on here Nicole.

Nicole: Look I thank you for letting me stay here despite what I’ve done to you, and I didn’t mean to impose on you, but I’m gonna stay with my son.

Cass: I’ve forgiven you for all that Nicole. You didn’t impose on me, and I’m glad you’re out of danger.

Nicole: I regret that my lies may have cost us a life together. Things could have been different.

Cass: There’s no use living in the past. You should probably focus on getting to know your son.

Nicole walks to the door and turns around.

Nicole: For what it’s worth, Cass, I will always love you.

Nicole then collapses. “Nicole!” says Cass, who tends to her.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vicky: Why are you here?

Jake: I wanna talk to you Vicky.

Vicky: How was your St. Croix vacation with Frankie?

Jake: She was searching for her biological mother.

Vicky: And YOU had to be the one to help her?

Jake: Vicky it’s not what you think….

Vicky: Not what I think? You are about to lose your marriage and you go off to St. Croix with another woman.

Jake: Our trip had nothing to do with romance…

Vicky: And you expect me to believe that Jake?

Jake: Yes, because you know that I love you, and I would never cheat on you.

Vicky: I don’t know what to trust about you anymore.

Jake: Is that what it’s come to?

Vicky: You have not been here Jake! You walked out on me. What am I supposed to think?

Jake: I would think if you needed some comfort, you would turn to me instead of Jack Snyder.

BAY CITY CENTER

Frankie has just told Charlie about Emma, Janice, Evan, and St. Croix.

Charlie: Wow…mom you must be a mess. Your own brother tried to kill you.

Frankie: We’re fine now.

Charlie: You couldn’t answer because you were being held prisoner. Mom what if I had lost you?

Frankie: Charlie, I’m here now, and I’m not going anywhere.

Frankie gets an email alert on her phone…it reads the DNA test results…and Carl Hutchins is indeed her father.

Charlie: Mom? Is everything okay?

Frankie looks shocked as she has just confirmed that Carl Hutchins is her biological father.
