BAY CITY CENTER - Grant is on his cell phone…

Grant: I need that to be done as soon as possible. Thank you.

After Grant hangs up, he turns around and there’s Vicky, who rolls her eyes at the sight of her son’s father.

Grant: Wow. You look like you just lost your best friend.

P.I. FIRM - Jake walks into the office while Frankie sits at her desk looking at her computer monitor.

Jake: Do we work here anymore?

Frankie: There’s a tranquility about this place. Helps to clear my head.

Jake: You’re exactly right.

The two are quiet, then Jake peeks at Frankie’s monitor, which is off.

Jake: Busy huh?

Frankie: Oh. No not at all. I’m just thinking about something...no not Cass.

Jake: That’s a bit of a surprise.

Frankie: Someone came up to me at the Center the other day before Stacey, Lindsay and I went to get fitted for our dresses. He knew my name.

Jake: Sounds a bit weird.

Frankie: Very. I wonder who he is.

Jake: We are P.I.’s right? Find out.

CAVANAUGH CLINIC - Joy faces Reginald in his office.

Joy: Does your word carry any weight?

Reginald: Just because you did me a couple of favors doesn’t mean anything.

Joy: What are you talking about? I dove into the river and retrieved the gun that Donna shot you with. I burned down the Harbor Club. What more could you possibly want?

Reginald: Oh, there is something else.

Joy: What did Thomasina Todd ever do to you? She’s one of the sweetest, kindest people I know, and you made her sick. Who do you think you are? What makes you think you can play God with people’s lives?

Vicky: Not now Grant.

Grant: Of course, but you really don’t look well.

Vicky: Gee thanks.

Grant: I know I’m not your favorite person.

Vicky: How perceptive of you.

Grant: Maybe you wanted to talk about it. I mean, Kirkland is getting married in a few days and, we are his parents. Don’t you think it’s time we start getting along. I can’t take him away from you now.

Vicky sighs, but realizes that Grant might be right but…

Vicky: We are Kirkland’s mother and father. We will always have that in common, but after everything you’ve done, we will never be friends.

Grant: You’ll never change.

Vicky: However, I’ve got a question for you. Who were you on the phone with?

PRISON MENTAL FACILITY - A guard holding a folder walks to Christy Carson’s room.

Guard: Carson.

Christy: What’s going on?

The guard gives the folder contents to Christy, who reads the papers. Her face lights up.

Christy: Is this...what I think it is?

Guard: It’s a fax from the governor’s office. You’re free to go.

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

Reginald rises out of his chair and walks up to Joy. They are now face to face.

Reginald: I’m capable of a lot of things, and I will not be questioned by the likes of you.

Joy: You’re a sick bastard!

Reginald: You almost broke up by granddaughter’s marriage. Who better to carry out my plan.

Joy: Your plan! You got Thomasina sick and you are the only one who can make her well!

Reginald: Didn’t anyone teach you that everything has a cost? I mean, your mother was a prostitute right?

Joy raises her right hand to slap him, but Reginald grabs her wrist to stop, and squeezes as Joy winces in pain.

Reginald: If you want Thomasina to live, you better lose the attitude and complete your next task. Now get the hell out of my office!

Joy coddles her wrist to ease the pain and as she leaves, Karen barges in with papers, and gives them to Reginald.

Karen: Sorry to interrupt. This couldn’t wait.

Reginald: What? How did she get a hold of this information?

Karen: I found this in Dr. McCleary’s office. She knows the truth.

Reginald: What?

Karen: The plastic surgery; the drug...everything.

Reginald: Did you stop her? Where the hell is she?

Karen: She escaped with the patient.

Reginald: Why did you let them get away?

Karen: She knocked me out, but it’s like I told you before, she won’t get far.

Meanwhile, Lisa’s car is in a ditch with smoke coming out of the hood. Both she and Marissa are unconscious with apparent head injuries. Marissa has a cut on her forehead that is bleeding. Lisa has blood on her face also. Marissa then begins to flash back…

(EPISODE 9)

Vicky: I ordered you and your sisters' dresses. They'll probably come tomorrow.

Michele: Been waiting for it.

Vicky: Are you going with Cory?

Michele: That's the plan.

Vicky: You like him don't you?

Michele (smiling): Yeah. A lot.

Vicky: So cute. You and Cory Hutchins, childhood sweethearts.

Then another...

(Episode 14)

Cory leans in and kisses Bridget, whom he thinks is Michele because he's drunk. They both look up and Michele is standing right over them, devastated.

Michele: What are you doing? Bridget?

Cory: Michele. It's you. Wait? I thought...

Michele: You thought wrong Cory. I thought you loved me.

Cory (stands up): I do. I'm....I'm sorry. I thought...

Michele: You're drunk! What's going on?

Michele sees the water bottle on the table, and grabs it before Bridget can take it from her. She opens it and smells the vodka.

Michele: No. You got drunk.

Cory: It's just punch. Bridget gave it to me.

Then she flashes back to Reginald sitting over her with Karen, who injects her with something.

Karen: This will make everyone think she’s brain dead.

Reginald: Jake and Vicky have done a horrible job raising my great-granddaughters.

Marissa suddenly wakes up with tears, and has her last memory..

EPISODE 9

Vicky: Your sister opened it.

Michele: Why would she do that?

Vicky: I think she might have thought it was hers from some reason.

Michele: Oh. Well I'm gonna go get ready for lunch with Cory.

Vicky: I'll talk to your father. We're gonna take you to Tops to celebrate.

Marissa/Michele: Oh my God!
