Wow! That is one hot! banner! Sound exciting...Can't wait for the Alan/Carrie/Sami/etc. stuff!

Meg gets confused whenDusty wants Lucy to stay. Dusty claims that he doesn't want to be the reason Lucy leaves Oakdale. Lucy explains that she needs to get her life back on track and plunge herself back into school. She wishes Dusty and Meg all the happiness in the world, especially with the imoending arrival of their new baby and their steadily approaching wedding. Later, Meg tells Dusty that they need to talk. It's about the wedding. Luke and Maddie decide that they need to check with their friend who said he found Will passed out at the bus station, Sam. Sam [played by InTurn's Ian] confesses that he never found Will at the bus stop. He explains that he came to the party, but didn't touch any alcohol and once he saw Will highly intoxicated, he offered him a ride home and Will told him to drop him off at the Lakeview. Luke asks Sam if he minds being questioned and though hesitant at first, Sam finally agrees. Meanwhile, Will has another flashback of a male screaming out him to get out. Andy tells Susan that he doesn't care where Emily is. Susan explains that Emily left hours ago following Andy. She also tells him how Emily's phone seems to be on silent. As Frank and Emily continue to argue over Emily getting out of the car, Emily secretly calls Andy on her cell phone and tips him off to where they're at and where they're headed over the phone. Frank sees her had besid the seat and asks her what she thinks she's doing. Emma goes off on Grant for hovering her farm above her. Grant quickly apologizes and the two leave together. At Jack and Carly's...the two sit down to have a romantic dinner together. However, Jack gets a call from Luke about a lead in the hit and run case and Carly is left alone. Time passes by and Grant appears at the door. Carly comments how late it is, but Grant tells her that Emma has agreed to Grant helping her get her farm back. While Carly wonders aloud what might have changed Emma's mind...we see a bedsheet-clad Emma crawling out of bed at the Lakeview, leading the viewers to believe that Emma and Grant did a little "negotiating" of their own. SPECIAL NOTE: In accordance with the pre-emption of As The World Turns on Monday, September 3...The World Of Oakdale will also be pre-empted.

Lucy asks for Dusty and is surprised when Meg comes in with him. She breaks down and starts crying, explaining that she never meant to come between Dusty and Meg. It all seems to be a bit too much for Meg, who leaves the room. Lucy explains to Dusty that she’s going back to college now to get her life back on track and promises never to bug Dusty again. Meg returns to the room just as Dusty begs Lucy not to go. Emma and Grant settle down for lunch and Grant can tell Emma is smitten by him. Once he starts talking legal terms, Emma gets nervous and tells Grant that she doesn’t need his help after all. Grant begs her to sit down and hear him out. He tells a surprised Emma that if he wanted to, he could get her the farm back today. Luke and Maddie take their cue and asks Lisa if they can accompany her. When Lisa starts to ask questions, they just lie and Lisa agrees. Once in the woman’s room, Luke and Maddie notice the portrait of a sunset on the wall and realize that the friend that they talked to, who told them they found Will at the bus station, was lying. They head back to Java to re-meet with Will and Gwen, while Gwen is reassuring Will that she’s there for him and that she knows he could never do such a terrible thing, unlike the person who really hit Elaine. Emily refuses to budge and tells the man, Frank [played by Peter Falk], that she is not going anywhere. She does, however, promise him a ride to the police station. Frank becomes infuriated and pulls out a knife, telling Emily to get out of the car and give him everything she has of value…or else. Meanwhile, Susan contacts Andy and asks if he’s seen Emily.

Will, Gwen, Maddie, and Luke all go for a cup of coffee at Java and run into Lisa. Coincidentally, she says that she has to go due to one customer who’s been giving her heck all day, whether the beds are too stiff or she wants that hideous picture of a sunset taken down off the wall. Everyone looks at one another, knowing that something’s not adding up. Jason wakes up from his morning slumber at The Wagon Wheel and finds he has a new voice message from his father, urging him to return home. Alone, he wonders if he’ll ever be able to escape all the fame and the chaos. Meanwhile, Katie tells Mike that she refuses to sleep in the same bed with him until he apologizes to Jason for all the times he’s jumped on him in the last few weeks. Roxie returns to her apartment and gets a visit from Barbara, wanting to ask a question about one of the designs. Roxie is shocked to find the initials “G.N.” on one of the designs. Roxie lies and says that she wrote that as an abbreviation for “Gown/Nightwear”. Barbara accepts Roxie’s lie and leaves. Roxie seems relieved that she’s passing off Gwen’s designs as her own. Emma arrives at the Lakeview and finds Grant waiting for her in the lobby. She asks how he knew she was coming and he explains that Carly has told him what a sensible woman Emma is. Emma tries to not let it show, but is secretly smitten with Grant…and even more surprised when he asks her out on a date…to discuss getting the farm back, of course.

I just can't picture Christie as "Michelle". She seems too young for the part. I could definitely see her as a "Marah" or a blonde, slightly aged "Marina"...but "Michelle" should be in her early-thirties and Chrisite (IMHO) doesn't fit that mold. However, I am very pleased with your casting of A-M and Lucy. Though I love Dinah/Mallet on the current show..

Gwen returns to find Luke and Will about to go for some coffee at Java and tags along. Will explains everything that he can remember, including the flashbacks he's had. Luke also tells Gwen of how he and Maddie talked with a friend who found Will passed out at a bus station. Will doesn't remember anything to that affect but flashes to seeing a picture of a sunset as soon a she woke up the next morning. Meg learns about Lucy and rushes to Memorial. When she arrives, Bob tells her that being there is not such a good idea since it may heighten her blood pressure evn more than it is, thus endangering her baby's life. Dusty spots Meg and tells of how Lucy asked for her mother and grandmother (who are going to break the new of her miscarriage to her) and wants to talk to Dusty after she's done talking with them. Meg and Dusty have a heart to heart and Meg quitely tells Dusty that she's there for him if he needs her. Dusty asks what made her change her mind. Meg confides that Roxie made her realize how lucky she really is and the two then hug. Emma shows up at The Wagon Wheel, still furious from her earlier meeting with Jack about Mr. Hamilton being called to town on her behalf. She finds a note from Meg explaining that Lucy's been taken to Memorial. Emma goes to leave, but Mr. Hamilton arrives. He tells her to sit down and that they need to talk. He informs Emma that her children and her children's children and all her family have all been helped by Emma. He asks why Emma won't let them help her, seeing as how she has lost her farm. Emma throws Grant out again. Later, Emma thoughtfully recalls Grant's words and heads out the door. Susan learns from Emily that Andy has left for Chicago and Emily is following him. Emily promises to call her mother as soon as she can find Andy and work things out with him. On the way to Chicago, Emily finds an old man on the side of the road and gives him a lift. She's stunned when the old man pulls a gun on her and tells her to stop the car, get out, and give him everything she has.

Dr. Cooper informs Lucinda, Sierra, and Dusty that Lucy is stabilized but has miscarried. Dusty is beyond words with guilt and anger. He blasts Lucinda and Sierra and then turns the blame on himself. Lucinda and Sierra rally around Dusty just as Dr. Cooper emerges, saying that Lucy has asked for them all. Gwen goes to find Carly putting Sage down for a nap. At first, she tells Carly how hurt she is that Will kept the night of Elaine's accident a secret, but then realizes how selfish she is being and notes that Will really needs her. Carly also hears Gwen tell of her designs going missing and worries that another designer may have stolen them. Meanwhile, Roxie thanks Barbara for being so kind to her and Barbara announces that Insteenct's freshman line is going to be some of Roxie's work. Andy tells Emily that he is leaving Oakdale for good and Emily begs him not to go. Before she can tell him she has sold the paper, Andy takes off and promises to call Emily as soon as he gets settled. Later, Emily sees a Chicago hotel pamphlet and makes plans to follow Andy.

Gwen and Will are taken for surprise when Luke and Maddie arrive. Gwen is confused when they start talking about the accident. Will explains everything to her and says that he feared she might not believe him when he said he couldn't remember. Gwen, hurt and frustrated, leaves to clear her head. Jack asks Emma why she kicked out Grant and she explains that she doesn't need any help and reveals that she knows that Carly and Jack were the ones that called Mr. Hamilton. Emily arrives at Andy's apartment and is told by the landlord that Andy went to his parent's house ans was talking about leaving. Emily rishes over to tell Andy that she has sold the paper to focus more on them, just as Andy walks out of the house..suitcases in town. At Lucinda's, Lucy gets panicked when Dusty comes over and starts taking all his anger out on her for ruinignh sic ahnces with Meg. He quickly apologizes and leaves. With Lucinda in the kitchen, Lucy clutches her stomach and starts screaming.."Something's wrong with the baby!" She then collapses in pain.

Dusty continues talking with Emma and she suggests getting his priorities in line. She also counsels him to stop at nothing to get Meg back. As soon as Dusty leaves, Emma hears a konck at the door and Grant introduces himself as the man who's about to help her get her life back. Carly tells Jack of Mr. Hamilton arriving in town and later arrives at Emma's to find that Emma has kicked Grant out. Lucinda consoles a hhurt Lucy and promises her that she and Dusty will be together...if Lucinda has anything to do with it. Meg arrives at Roxie's apartment and says that she really needs a friend right now. Roxie invites her in and the two begin talking.

It is revealed to be Grant Hamilton. Katie goes to see Henry at WOAK and learns about Luke and Maddie getting into trouble. Katie fills Henry in on what's been happening in her life and Henry consoles her. Gwen snaps Will out of his trance and really wants to take him to the doctor or something. Will refuses and tells Gwen to sit down. He's about to tell her what's been bothering him. Meanwhile, Luke and Maddie find out from a friend that Will was found passed out at the bus station the night of Elaine's accident.

Andy tells John and Kim that he is leaving Oakdale...and this time, it's a sure thing. Meanwhile, Emily confides in Carly that she's really messed up her chances with Andy this time and considers selling the paper, despite all the trouble she went through to buy it back from Craig all those years ago. Meg makes plans for Emma to move in with her until Iva can find a good home for Emma in Iva's neighborhood. After much gnashing of teeth, Meg finally gets her mother to stay with her in a room that she recently rented at the Lakeview...but only under one condition. She has to talk things over with Dusty. While Gwen continues searching for her missing designs, Roxie gets rave reviews from Barbara for her "unimaginabally talented work". Gwen finally gives up and goes home to find Will cooking a romantic dinner for the two of them. However, when the tea kettle starts to hiss...Will flashes back to hearing Elaine screaming and two cars slamming together.

Mike demands to know what Jason is doing and coldly orders him to leave. Once Jason is gone, Katie tears into Mike, saying that he owes Jason an apology. Back at Emma's, Luke angrily yells at one of the movers, saying that his grandmother worked her whole life for that farm and all that they can do is yank it away from her. Jack manages to yank him away and tells Luke that he's taking care of it. Meanwhile, Will comes to the Insteenct offices to talk to Gwen about the night of Elaine's death and his trouble remembering what happened that night. Gwen, however, is frantic trying to locate her missing designs. Little does she know that Roxie is passing them off to Barbara as her own. Dusty finally is able to track down Meg in a room at The Wagon Wheel.

It turns out that Meg was just lifting a box of some of Dusty's stuff to give to him. Meg wishes him well with Lucy and slams the door in his face.

JERRY DOUGLAS: NOT TOO 'YOUNG' FOR 'WORLD' Former Y&R star Jerry Douglas has been keeping a secret for quite some time now. Before his time at 'Y&R' ever expired, he had been contacted by the powers that be at The World Of Oakdale to portray a brand new role created especially with him in mind. And he accepted. "I'm really looking forward to this. I've heard alot of great things about the direction the show is headed and I'm just glad to be a part of it," says Douglas. Executive Producer and Headwriter Dusty Alford also was thrilled when Douglas accepted. "Basically, if he couldn't do it, we weren't going to even bring the character on. Jerry is phenomenal in front of a camera and I wanted to get that same charisma and bring it to 'The World Of Oakdale'," says Alford. "And thank goodness he said 'yes' ". Douglas will be portraying the newly created role of Grant Hamilton, a wealthy financier from New York who comes to town to help Emma Snyder get her farm back. According to sources, Douglas's first day on set was at the beginning of the month so look for "Mr. Grant Hamitlon" to appear in Oakdale any day now. Maybe even this coming week.

Jason arrives at Mike and Katie's and apologizes to Katie for bringing her into the chaos known as his life. Katie tells him not to apologize and is taken back when Jason comes down with his bags.

Just as she's about to order another, John walks up and sits beside her. At Lucinda's, there's a repeat of Lucy's sonogram picture falling from her purse. Dusty picks it up and asks what it is.

Dusty, very angry with Lucinda for keeping this from him, leaves to go home. He walks outside to find Meg waiting on him.

Andy meets up with Emily at Java and holds up the lastest Enquirer, wanting to nkow what the hell Emily's doing. Emily explains that she needed this story to heighten the declining readers and subscribers, but Andy refuses to believe her. He angrily tells her that they're over since she can't find time for them in between running sleazy stories for a filth magazine. Meg goes to Emma's in hopes that Emma can do some floral arrangements for the wedding. Emma lets it slip that she heard from Lucinda that Lucy's back in town.

Will explains that he did in fact go to the party, but his memory is really sketchy after he opens the door to leave the party. Luke offers to help Will find out if he's the one who hit Elaine. Jason confronts a less than happy Mike and assures Mike that nothing happened between he and Katie and that he was simply putting some medicine of Katie's ant bites she suffered when they were taking bridal portraits. He confides that he thought all the sleaze writers were back home, but he guesses those types of tabloids are everywhere. Alone, Mike flashes back to he and Carly catching Emily with a camera and goes to track down Carly, hoping that she can help him confront Emily.

Susan arrives home to find Emily gloating over the new edition of The Enquirer. Emily can tell Susan is upset and offers to talk to her, but Susan dismisses her and goes upstairs. Gwen tells Will of how she has no design ideas for Insteenct and Roxie seems to be full of them. Will consoles her and tells her everything is going to be alright.
