He has a severe case of pneumonia and some sort of bacteria in his blood. She and Tom are on their way to go see him and Adam and Abigail, but since Andy and Emily are nowehere to be found, they need someone to keep Daniel until Emily can pick him up. Kim assures Margo that she has nothing to worry about. Bob remains conflicted about whether or not to tell Kim now. Katie and Mike arrive at the cottage and akwardly bump into Henry as he's moving some things out. Katie begs Henry to hear her out. She apolgizes for using him in the past and feels lousy for making him marry her just to get back at Mike. She does tell him, however, that even though their marriage was a scam, her feelings for him weren't. Mike also has a brief heart to heart with his best friend. Henry accepts their apology but tells them both that these past few months, past few years have left him emoitonally and pysically drained. He announces to a shocked Katie and Mike that they needn't call him or try to find him. He just needs to get away for a few weeks and clear his head. Later, Henry arrives to tell Maddie goodbye but can't find her anywhere. Henry breaks down as he writes a goodbye letter to his little sister. Luke sits in his room playing Wii when Holden knocks on the door. Luke turns the game off and pretends to be doing something productive, like Algebra homework. Holden says they need to talk. Luke tells Holden that he has nothing more to say. Lily knocks as well and Luke smarts off that they must be here to gang up on him again. Maybe this time, they even brought along the men in white coats to carry him off. Holden finally has it and tells Luke that his arrogant behavior has got to stop. They never tried to get him committed or anything of the sort. Lily expresses her concern for Luke's well being and Luke says the best thing they can do is leave him alone. Later, Maddie stops by to talk to Luke. Luke refuses to see Maddie and Maddie expresses her concern to Holden and Lily that Luke might be upset over the fact that she's leaving for college in the fall. Holden and Lily both glance at each other, knowing that this must be the reason. Note: Rated TV-MA. This scene is intended for mature audiences. It contains strong sexual content and nudity.

Roxie goes beyond the camera's point of view and Chris lets out an excited yelp. He grabs Roxie up off the floor after a while and lays her down on the bed. He slowly takes off her shirt, then her bra, then her skirt, then her panties. He caresses her face and inches his way down her body, kissing her stomach. Roxie moans as Chris's face slips beyond the camera's point of view. Chris thrusts himself into Roxie. Roxie yelps with excitement and satisfaction. At first, Chris seems pleased to be finally getting his min off recent events. His relief soon turn to anger and he unleashes all his passion, his rage, his anguish into Roxie. End on Roxie's hand gripping hold of the bedsheets and letting out an excited giggle.

Grant agrees and goes to see an old friend. Dana sits Milly down to talk. Dana invites her mother to Grant's birthday party Friday, but Milly refuses to come. Dana almost spills that she knows what happened between Milly and Grant all those years ago, but when Milly asks her what she said, Dana lies and says something that sounds similar. Emma hears a knock at the door and is not so happy when she sees Grant's beaming face. He drops his luggage and tells Emma that he and Dana are leaving town next week. He tells her that Milly has gotten the house because Grant ceased alimony and they had an agreement that Milly would get the house if he ever stopped payment. He says that he and Dana are leaving town after his party and since Milly has their house, they need a place to say. Though reluctant at first, Emma eventually agrees after Grant offers to pay her rent. Later, Emma calls Lisa and tells her about her newest houseguests. Barbara drops by Will and Gwen's house and brings some of John Dustin's things. Barbara asks what they need them for. Gwen tells Barbara that though they told her they were making a present for him, they really lied. Will then announces to his mother that he and Gwen are having a baby. Barbara can't believe it, saying that she thought Gwen was left barren after the fall in New York. Will tells of the treatments Gwen's been taking and Barbara reluctantly congratulates them. After Will leaves, Barbara senses Gwen's uneasiness about being pregnant and calls her on it. Bob's pager goes off. An elderly patient he has been caring for has died. Ben runs into Bob and offers to help tell the family but Bob insists that he do it by himself. However, Bob is left speechless when the family arrives and Ben ends up having to tell them. Later, Ben asks Bob if he's told Kim or Nancy about Chris. Has he even confronted Chris? But Bob confides in Ben that he just can't find the words to tell them. Just then, Kim appears, asking what Bob needs to tell her.

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening Kim tells Chris that Roxie is Lisa's granddaughter and all the history and mystery surrounding her. Bob sits down to watch his favorite show "General Hospital: Secrets & Lies". Nancy pokes fun at him, but can tell that Bob is in a bad mood. She asks her son to tell her what's wrong, but he just stares. Nancy turns off the TV, saying that he can watch Robin and Sarah go head to head some other day. She asks again what's wrong with him. He tells her that he will tell her when he's ready, but please don't rush him. Later, Nancy confides in Kim, hoping that if his mother can't get it out of him..maybe his wife can. Henry comes home from his job out of town and is befuddled when he spots Mike's car outside. He comes in and finds Mike and Katie watching "Safe From Harm". Henry is even more confused that Katie isn't chewing Mike out. Katie asks Henry to sit down and join them on the couch. Katie and Mike face a confused Henry and inform him that Katie's memory has returned. Katie says that she thanks Henry for being there for her in her time of need. She thanks him for his love, his generosity, and his friendship. Mike does the same and the two men lock eyes, as if Henry is saying "Take care of her". Henry is both confused, amazed, relieved, and yet sad. He hates that everytime he and Katie get close again, something always happens. "But that's not all", Katie begins. "Mike and I....we talked. And, uh, well...there's no easy way to say this. We're getting married...as in...next week!" Grant stops by Al's to get take-out. Dana startles him when she runs right to him. He can tell something isn't right and asks his daughter what's wrong. Dana tells of Millicent packing up their things and moving them out of the house. Grant goes to confront Milly while Dana stays behind to find out if Al's Diner will cater her father's birthday party. Grant arrives just as Milly is leaving. He asks her what she thinks she's doing. Milly tells him that she has packed all of his things. She elaborates that she told him ten years ago that if he was to ever stop payment, that she would take half of everything he owned. Grant shouts that the house, the car, and a few thousand in the bank are all he has. "You can't possibly take that all away from me!" Milly grins and remarks that Grant shouldn't worry. She's only taking the house. She ends by remarking that she loves what he and Dana have done with the place and walks off. As Grant stands there soaking in what just happened, he realizes that all he and Dana have now are each other, the car, and a few thousand. Later, Dana arrives and Grant shocks her by telling her that they're leaving Oakdale. Andy throws back in the recliner as he switches off the TV. "I swear. They don't make daytime dramas like 'Secrets We Share' anymore", he sighs. He looks over at the clock and wonders where Emily could be. Just tehn, the door turns and in walks Emily. Andy questions Emily about where she's been. When she snidely remarks that she went 'out', Andy tells her that he's had it. He's tired of people in this town manipulating and scheming to get what they want. He tells Emily that if Roxie wanted him bad enough, she would have secured his love and trsut in her a long time ago..but she hasn't. "Ya know why?" he passionately yells. "Because I'm too in love with you to see anybody else." Emily asks him about the kiss at Java and Andy tells her that there was no kiss. Thankfully, Emily walked in just when she should have or else..."I don't even wanta think of what I would have done to that girl". Emily is touched by Andy's words and milks them for all they're worth. As the two lock lips, Andy takes breaths to just re-emphasize how much she means to him. Emily, too, takes short breaths in between kissing to tell Andy that she's sorry she ever doubted him". Andy finally breaks free and points at the engagement ringer on Emily's finger. "Are we still a go?" he asks. "You bet your life we are", a fiesty Emily replies.

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening Holden walks into the living room, still reeling from the news that Lily told him about Lucinda last night. Lily comes in and says that she forgot his gift at the office last night and runs out to go get it. Luke comes home and Holden thinks that Luke's come home to talk, but in all reality, he just came to get his present for Maddie. Luke leaves and Holden wonders how he'll ever get through to his son. Later, Lily arrives home and the two sip hot cocoa and watch their favorite soap Life In Oakdale. "Ya know, sometimes I feel like I, myself, live in a soap opera. Life has been very complicated for us. That's no understatement. But you know what? I wouldn't trade it for the world. Beacuse I know at the end of the day, I can come home and snuggle next to you and our children", Lily exclaims. Just then, Lily breaks a smile and grabs Holden's hands.

His day is brightened, however, when Frannie and Sabrina call and wish them a Happy Valentine's Day. Kim and Bob return to the living room, while Nancy sits at the table reading From These Roots, a novel based on the history on the infamous soap opera. Chris roams the streets of Oakdale, looking for the perfect last minute present for his mom and grandmom. Roxie rounds the corner and shopping bags from the department store King's go flying. Roxie breaks down in tears, saying that she absolutely hates this holiday! Chris offers her help and notices her as John Dixon's girlfriend and the same girl that slept with his brother. Roxie claims to know nothing, saying she must have a twin, and runs off. Chris stands in amazement, knowing deep down that Roxie is all he wants. Lisa comes by Tom and Margo's to bring Daniel a gigantic teddy bear. Lisa talks briefly about Grant and says that she and Emma aren't attending his birthday party. Mike stands alone in the Oakdale Mini-Mall. He sees a present that Katie pointed out last year that she wanted for this year. Mike, emotions rumbling, kicks the snow in frustration. Grant comes home and finds Millicent making herself comfy on the couch. Grant asks what the hell she thinks she's doing and she scolds Grant, saying that her show, Salem Lives, is about to go off. When it does, Millicent asks what he wants and Grant laughs, saying she's the one who came to see him. "Oh yes. I almost forgot there for a second. How terribly shameful of me. I came to collect the money you owe me", Millicent replied coldly. Grant replies that it meant nothing to him. "She was just a ....", he tries to continue, but Dana walks in the room. Jack sips on a mud of hot cocoa at Emma's. Emma pats him on the shoulder and slides into the next room. Just then, the phone rings. He picks it up and it's Carly on the other end. In a rare moment, we see Carly on the other end of the phone. The tears on her face drip down and fall on the phone. She smiles, mouthing the words "Happy Valentine's Day, G-Man". The camera turns back and close in on Jack's face. His smile is untouched when tears roll gently down his cheek. Ben and Jessica try their best to celebrate, but Ben gets called away at the hospital. Later, Ben comes home. He turns off The Stories, which is just going off, and snuggles into bed next to Jessica. He promises her that one day, their lives will settle down. Craig sits all alone in his suite. He stares at an old family photo and calls in room service. As he sips from hsi wine glass, he wonders if he should listen to Lily and forget all about it or make Lucinda pay for what she tried to do. He turns on the TV and scrolls through until he finds Return to Santa Barbara. Once he watches for a little, he falls asleep. As the camera pans above Craig, we see that he's sleeping beside the family photo he was just holding. Luke leaves Maddie's present on her doorstep. After he leaves, Maddie comes outside and reads the card: "As the days go by, I think a little piece inside of me dies every time you avoid me. I'm sorry. Forever and always. -Luke- " Gwen comes out of the bathroom and is obviously not feeling well. While Will is out getting the present he's been hiding at his mom's house, Gwen decides that she needs to do something about this sick feeling she has and walks out. Later, she returns. After seeing Will still isn't back, she closes the bathroom door. A few minutes later, Gwen looks down at a pregnancy test. "No, it can't be", she mutters. "I can't be pregnant." As she looks up, she sees Will in the doorway with a huge smile on his face and the biggest Valentine's present you've ever seen. Lyla notices Katie's depressed mood and offers to take her to Al's for a bite to eat. Lyla address Katie's amnesia and says something similar once happened on The Guiding Light. Katie scoffs at her mother and tells her that this isn't a soap opera! As a waiter brings them their food, Katie begins seeing a couple dancing and singing in the restaurant.

As she recalls dancing and singing with Mike at this very diner on Valentine's Day a few years back, all the memories from the past year or two all hit Katie once. Katie collapses to the floor in pain and agony. Her head throbs. Lyla lunges to her feet. ------------------------------ For the following scenes, click here.

The song is "Find My Way Back" by Martha Byrne. ------------------------------ Lyla pats Katie's head with a warm, most toilette and tells Katie that she had quite a fall. Lyla has a gleam in her eye. It's obvious that she knows what just happened. Katie yells, "I remember!! It was Mike. Mike was the snow angels. Mike was the man I was singing and dancing with. It was Mike! I remember now! Mama, I remember!" Minutes later, Mike walks beside Java. It's so cold, but he just doesn't feel like facing people. What if he sees a blode haired girl? It'll just remind him of Katie. "Crap. See?! I just thought of her", exclaims Mike. Just then, he turns and sees Katie running towards him. Tears stream down her face. At first Mike thumps himself on the head. "Maybe I caught something", he thinks. Katie leaps into his arms. As time slows, we see a beautiful montage of Mike and Katie. They kiss and kiss and kiss. Time comes back. Time they thought was lost forever. Their time. No one else's. And all is right in the world. As the montage ends, we see a nude Mike gently lay a nude Katie down on a red satin bed sheet and the two make sweet, passionate, neverending love.

I'm really gonna miss your outrageous plots, scheming characters, and ever-so-frightful action scenes!! ....as well as my fellow SONBC writer. I think you and I started ours like a week apart and I believe DrewH stopped 'DAYZED' like a week or two after mine started. Oh, the memories!! But alas, we've had fun!!

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening Barbara smiles wickedly as she approaches Dana and tells the young woman her jig is up. Barbara notifies her that the Oakdale Police will be notified if she doesn't hand over the file immediately. Dana realizes she has no other choice and hands over the file. Barbara thanks her and walks off. Just then, Grant returns and finds Dana standing outside. He ushers his noticeably upset daughter back in the house. Dana changes the subject and tells Grant that she has finally closed the deal for his birthday party. Grant fakes excitement and asks his daughter what Millicent is doing back in town. Though she tries to avoid the situation, she ultimately tells Grant her mother is back in town to collect money from him. Bob can't seem to tell Kim that Chris might have been involved in the mysterious death of an elderly patient at Windy Falls. He can't even bring himself to act normal around his son. Chris notices his father's tension and calls him on it. Bob just tells Chris that he's stressed and apologizes for being so short as of late. Later that night, Bob hears Chris moaning in his sleep. Then he hears Chris say something to "Mrs. Brown". Bob realizes that Chris is having nightmares of the incident and rolls over to find Kim sleeping peacefully beside him. "I can't tell her. It would kill her to know....Hell, it's killing me", Bob mutters. He finally rests his head on the pillow and stares at Kim for a long while before dozing off to sleep. Emily tells Roxie to get away from her man now! Roxie stands shellshocked as to what just happened and warns Emily that she's playing with fire. A waitress who has noticed all the commotion notifies to the O.P.D. and pretty soon, Margo gets a call about a physical assault at Java. She's horrified when she realizes that it's Andy, Emily, and Roxie involved. An akward exchange of eye contact between Andy and Roxie keeps her from pressing charges. Roxie leaves in a huff. Andy tries to talk to Emily, but she just replies (comically, angrily mimicking Andy from earlier) "I'll be at my mother's if you need me". Holden asks his son to sit down and talk with him. For the first time in Holden's memory, Luke snaps back that Holden isn't even his real father. Holden tries to reach out to Luke, but it's no use. He won't listen. Luke comes back downstairs after a while and hurriedly tells Holden that he's staying the night at Emma's before Holden can object. Lily comes in and asks what's wrong with Luke now, since he almost knocked her over outside. Holden breaks down, saying that he never meant to raise his hand to Luke. He never meant for it all to escalate like this. Lily calms Holden down and sarcastically informs Holden that their son's wayward behavior should be the least of his problems since she just obtained knowledge of the fact that he's working for an assasin...AKA...her mother. Katie begs with Henry not to go, but Henry insists. He can't get off. "But I need you", she begs. Henry asks her to take care of Snickers and he'll be back in a few days. Katie breaks out in tears as Henry leaves and she phones Lyla. Lyla promises to be right over to keep her company for the night. As Lyla hangs up the phone, we see Mike standing beside her. Obviously, Mike and Lyla have been in some sort of conversation before Katie called. Lyla tells Mike that she'll do what she can, but she's not making any promises. Mike thanks her and scurries off, leaving Lyla to pray above to the heavens (and to Casey) that their baby girl has gotten herself in one hell of a bind. And it's gonna take all Lyla has not to just scream bloddy murder. Lyla packs up her bags and walks out the door, headed for Katie's.

Rue McClanahan Enters A 'World' Of Her Own It can now be officially confirmed. Rue McClanahan has joined The World Of Oakdale on a short-term basis as "Millicent Hamilton". In a soap stunt much like Hunter Tylo's infamous return to The Bold & The Beautiful a few years back, Rue's arrival on the set was kept very hush hush. "They had me so disguised I looked like I just came out of that Dana Carvey movie The Master of Disguise", jokes McClanahan. The Golden Girls alum is no stranger to daytime. She portrayed Caroline Johnson on the now defunt soap Another World back in 1970. However, this time around will probably be McClanahan's most memorable. She's portraying Millicent Hamilton, the sultry vixen ex-wife of Grant and the cold, un-nurturing mother of Dana. Fans will come to realize in the coming weeks that Millicent is a force to be reckoned with. And they'll also discover the reason Millicent is the way that she is. "Life hasn't been fair to the poor girl", cackles McClanahan. "And that's all I've got to say for now." McClanahan started airing on Friday, Februrary 9th. Her last airdate is rumored to be Friday, March 2nd.

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening Luke comes by Emma's house and finds the place practically empty. He finds a note from Emma saying that she has gone to town with Lisa and will be back shorty. Luke goes down to the barn to think about recent events and just clear his head. He's surprised to see Kevin is back in town. Kevin says that he was just on his way up to the house to ask Emma where he could find Luke. After a brief chat, Luke learns that Kevin's parents divorced and he's been living with his mom in Oakdale. Luke is also astonished to find out that Kevin is going to Oakdale U. in the fall and even more surprised when Kevin asks him to be his roommate at the dorms. Luke looks forward to it and runs home. However, his good mood comes to an abrupt end when Holden addresses the tension between them. Katie asks Mike to come by the house and get some more of his stuff. While he's there, he mis-handles a box and it slips, causing Katie to bump her head. Mike realizes that after stuff like that happens in the movies, someone usually regains their memory. Alas, it's a lost cause when Katie comes to and curses Mike for being so stupid. Mike rubs her forehead and vows to make it up to her. Later, Henry comes home with some bad news. His job is calling him out of town and he won't be home for Valentine's Day. Grant and Dana are shocked beyond words to see Millicent Hamilton standing before them. After a brief reunion, the three begin to crack under the pressure of having to stay in the same room together. Grant leaves the women alone and Dana asks her mother what she wants. Millicent acts very cold towards her daughter and says that Grant owes her alimony and she simply came to collect. Dana scolds her mother for not changing any and asks if she still has the brothel in New Orleans. Millicent retorts that it's a gentlemen's club. Both women part ways and Dana runs out for some fresh air. But who should she run into? Why, none other than Barbara Ryan! Lily is beyond words when she realizes that Craig is telling the truth. Of she goes to confront her mother, who just so happens to be stopping by Worldwide for a board meeting. Lily jumps on her mother for trying to have someone who has been in their family, the father of Lucinda's two precious grandchildren, killed.

Lily leave in a huff, while Craig and Lucinda lock eyes. Emily returns from the police station to find Andy watching TV. Andy tries to stand up for his decision, but he realizes that all Emily needs is some time alone. Andy tells Emily that he'll be at Java if she needs him. While Emily stays home, Andy goes to Java and runs into Roxie. The two begin talking about John and Andy lectures that Roxie should have listened to him. He also lectures that she should have never tried to break him and Emily apart because, as she can see, they're still together despite Roxie's best efforts. Roxie promises to make it up to Andy, just as Emily arrives. As Roxie goes in for the kill (a kiss), Emily walks up and slaps Roxie from behind, demanding that she back away from her man right now!!

Love my Scrubs!!

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening Nancy and Kim are floored with the news that Bob is thinking about retiring. Bob tells them that he's done good for all the years he's been at Memorial, but he thinks it's time to hand over his stethoscope to his son. Bob excuses himself and goes to talk with Ben. Jessica informs him that Ben isn't home, but asks if there's anything she can help him with. "Why yes. There is something you can help me with", Bob replies. Chris comes home and finds Nancy in the kitchen. He surprises her by asking if she's afraid of dying. Nancy assumes that Chris is worried about her, and assures him that she is perfectly healthy. Chris says he knows that, but.....is she afraid of dying? Nancy, a little confused about Chris's eagerness for her to answer, responds that when the Lord wants to call her home, He will...but until then..."You'll just have to put up with me", she says with a smirk. Lily arrives at Craig's suite and finds nobody home. She leaves Craig a voice mail on his cell phone to come home right away. She needs to speak with him. As she stares at all the family pictures and recalls a happier time, Craig sneaks up behind her and startles her. He recalls doing that to her once at his and Sierra's wedding and he asks if she's heard anything from her sister. Lily replies that she hasn't, but she did hear from Bianca that Sierra's been doing fine. Craig finally breaks the ice and asks Lily what she wanted to speak with him about. Lily asks why Craig is suing her mother and Worldwide and Craig informs a very disturbed Lily that her mother tried to have him killed. Across town, Dana frets over the situation with Barbara, telling her father that she had nothing to do with a missing file. Grant promises Dana that she has every right to be upset. Dana changes the subject and starts talking about possible places to have his birthday party. Emily runs into Tom at the police station and he makes arrangements for her to go pick Daniel up from his weekend soccer game. Emily finds Margo in her office and asks her where John is. Margo replies that she hasn't seen him since he posted bail, and now that the charges are dropped, she doubts she'll see him again until he needs something. Emily is hurt that Andy didn't inform her of this, but Margo promises her that he had intentions to do just that. As Nelly Furtado's "Maneater" plays softly in the background..... Roxie goes by John's to get her stuff and sees that no-one is home. She grabs her stuff out and as she does, she sees John has a message on his machine. As she listens to Tiffany thank John for such a wonderful time last night, she grows even more furious than what she was to begin with. Crying and screaming, she smashes John's machine into millions of tiny pieces, flips his couch over after tearing a knife into it, throws pictures against the wall, and totally trashes John's house. Grant and Dana begin to notice little things that are a little odd as they walk throughout the house. Lights in the house being off when they left and now on. A few of Grant's business cards here and there. Some family pictures scattered on the counter. And the faint, foul smell of cigarettes and alcohol. As Grant and Dana round the corner, we see Grant's office chair turned around. Cigarette smoke dances above the chair and three empty martini glasses rest on the desk beside the chair. As the chair slowly turns around....we hear a voice say "Welcome home, my dears". Grant and Dana's mouths both hit the floor when they see who it is.

I hate to do this, but Episode 285 is going to be delayed a little. I have had so much to do all day today. And I'm actually walking out the door to do more...but have no fear! Episode 285 will be up an hour or so after midnight tonight. And I promise, this episode will be well worth the wait!!

THE WORLD OF OAKDALE TWOO Opening As Dana comes to, Barbara scoffs at her obvious attempt at getting out of a heated confrontation. Dana tells Barbara she probably fainted because of the stress regarding the loss of her job at B.R.O. and her spending money on stuff for her dad's 65th birthday party next week...stuff that she doesn't have the money for now. Barbara, disgusted that Dana still won't produce the file, orders her out. When Dana persists for Barbara to listen to her, Barbara calls in security to escort Dana off the premises. Lisa and Emma collectively sigh. "What on earth are you wanting now?" Emma asks him. Grant insists that he was just coming by to get some sugar from her. Emma innocently giggles when Grant puckers up to her, but quickly realizes what Grant's doing and vows not to be reeled back in. Grant has no idea what the two ladies have against him and he wonders aloud how they've became such good friends as of late when a few months ago, they were digging their claws in each other, fighting over him. Lisa fires back that they were a bit naive back then and they came to bond over their mutual disgust with Grant Hamilton's sneaky, slimeball ways. Grant playfully chides that that's not the neighborly attitude to have, but is stopped mid-sentence when Dana comes barging in. Emma scolds her, saying she has worse manners than her father...just walking into someone else's house unannounced and uninvited. Dana, with an obvious look of disgust directed towards Lisa and Emma, pays them no attention and orders her daddy come home right away. She has something to tell him. Bob sits down with Kim at the dinner table and prepares to tell Kim what he has discovered about Chris. "How could my son, the person I raised from a baby boy to a grown man, be involved in such a horrid crime?" he thinks to himself.
