    Episode 60

    By Actor87,

    Episode co-written by Dusty & P.J.



    Rosanna tells Meg they have nothing to discuss, and turns to leave. Meg smirks as she blocks her path. If that was true, Rosanna wouldn't have come running when she got "Paul"s message. Meg warns Rosanna to make a "graceful exit" from Paul's life, or face charges for the accident that caused her miscarriage. Rosanna scoffs and dismisses the threat as ludicrous. Not by the time Meg gets through crying to the D.A., she promises. Her child isn't even the first one Rosanna has killed---Carly's baby died too. Everyone knows how jealous Rosanna's always been for a child, Meg hisses. Even if it doesn't convince a jury, there will always be whispers. Paul will never be sure. And it might even drive a wedge between her and Carly. Furious, Rosanna slaps her and calls her a desperate, heartless bitch. Meg clutches her cheek, and starts to cry. Rosanna stares at Meg as she sobs hysterically, and begs her to leave. Rosanna says she's not going anywhere until she talks to Paul. That means she's in luck, Paul says as he grabs her arm and drags her out of the study.

    Holden finds Aaron sitting in his truck, parked beside the Snyder pond. He tells Aaron that Caleb called and broke the news of his divorce from Julie. After some initial silence, Holden tells him that Aaron can say anything to him. Aaron finally admits that he thought Julie and Caleb would always work things out, just like Holden and Lily always do. No one seems to be happy anymore. Jack, Meg, Brad---none of the Snyders. If none of them can find happiness, he doesn't see how he and Ali can. He loves Ali, but he can't just stop thinking that he's still in love with the old Alison and not the one standing before him, that's been to hell and back. Aaron confesses that sometimes, he feels like he drove her to meth and porn. Holden tells him that love is a funny thing. Just when you grab hold of it, it seems to slip away sometimes. However, you can't just hope it returns; you have to chase after it. You have to fight for it. Holden points out that he just came from Ali's, and she was very concerned about Aaron. That seems to be a good place to start rebuilding a relationship, he hints. Aaron thanks his dad for the advice, but still questions how he's supposed to find love with the new Alison. Aaron admits that he has a hard time coming to grips with the fact that Alison's been through alot, recently fighting off a stalker in Elwood. Holden tells him that before he can see Alison for who she truly is, Aaron has to forgive himself.

    Kim preps for her on-air interview with the new cancer specialist at Oakdale Memorial as Katie walks in, toting some information that the PR people from Oakdale Memorial sent over for Kim to look at. Kim slyly asks Katie if she knows anything about this specialist, hinting to see if Katie knows that Bob just hired her long lost uncle for the position. Katie is oblivious to the fact and runs to her office to look at tomorrow's show agenda for Oakdale Now. Michael Peretti walks in and introduces himself to Kim. Kim says that Bob has told her so much about him and he forces a slight grin. Kim thanks him for taking the position and talks of how this cancer ward is hopefully going to provide state of the art treatment for many Oakdale citizens struggling with the disease, as well as people in surrounding areas. Katie rushes in and babbles on to Kim about a problem with the agenda for tomorrow's Oakdale Now cooking segment. Kim takes time to introduce Katie to the new specialist, simply identifying him as "Michael". Right off the bat, Michael makes a statement about what a beautiful woman she's turned in to. "I'm sorry. Do I know you?" Katie questions. Michael stares in admiration at his niece as he replies, "Your father would have been so proud. My goodness, how you remind me of him!!" Katie steps back, in shock, as she realizes the man she's talking to is her uncle, Michael Peretti. Tears flow down her cheeks as she runs out Kim's office door with Michael following close behind.

    Jack stops at the Lakeview and after a beer or two, pumps the bartender for information on Carly's date just as Margo enters the room. Margo greets Jack warmly, asking if he's come to his senses about leaving the force yet. Jack starts to leave, until Margo catches him by the harm and admits that she overheard him asking the bartender for information on Carly's date. Caught, Jack tries to sneak out of it, but eventually tells Margo that he's just worried about Carly; that's all. After all, Carly's still having nightmares about that psycho Sam. Margo tell Jack that he shouldn't worry over nothing, as she informs him she saw Carly and her date last night at the Lakeview, having a pleasant time. And, it turns out, Wagner just so happens to be a lawyer acquaintance of Tom's, she divulges. Margo scolds Jack for being so protective and asks him if this curiousity about Wagner is out of concern or jealousy. Jack admits that it's a little of both as Margo smiles and tells Jack that he can officially stop fretting over Carly....if he's able.

Will tries comforting her, but she tells him that she's fine now.

    Carly comes to work and finds Carrie's late again. Carly asks Kim if Carrie's coming in today or not. Kim replies that she doesn't know. Later, a late Carrie drags into work and Kim calls her into her office. Kim stops dead in her tracks and Carrie asks what's the matter. Kim reports that this is the third time that Carrie's been late in the past week and tells her that if it happens again, WOAK will be forced to hire a replacement. Carrie hangs her head and exits as Carly watches with a smirk on her face.

    Lisa waits on Kim in the lounge and almost leaves. Kim rushes in and apologizes for being late for their brunch. Kim tells of how Carly's assistant has such a familiar face that she caught her tongue. Lisa asks who this girl looks like and Kim replies that she doesn't know. Cheery, Lisa changes the conversation and asks about Bob. Kim replies that he's doing good, but Susan still seems to be charming her way more and more into Bob's orbit.

    Paul comes home and finds Meg in a panic. Meg moans that her pain is getting worse and she's out of her medicine. Paul agrees to go get her medicine, accidentally leaving his phone behind. "Paul" sends Rosanna a text message asking her to come by the penthouse. When Rosanna arives, she's shocked to see Meg answer the door and even more shocked to see Paul is nowhere around. Meg explains that she sent the text message because she knew Rosanna would her avoid her calls. Meg asks Rosanna to take a seat and informs her that they need to have a talk.

    Luke tries contacting Carrie, but as soon as he dials the number, Noah comes home. Luke decides to head to Lucinda's and ask a favor. Once there, Luke comes in and being clueless to the fact that she was just released from jail, he lets her fill him in before announcing the point to his visit. Luke asks Lucinda to do some digging and find out info about a girl by the name of Carrie Clemmens. Not knowing that Noah gave him a false name in hopes of throwing him off, Luke reports that Carrie Clemmens is the key to his future with Noah. Lucinda agrees to find out all she can.

    Susan denies that she had anything to do with Aaron returning to town, but Emily sees right through it. Emily tells her mother that if they want to avoid a catastrophe like Alison's last venture away from Oakdale, they should give Ali her space. Susan reluctantly agrees.

    Aaron stumbles over to the couch and takes a nap as Alison makes her way over to The Enquirer. Alison tells Emily how Aaron is already back from his trip to Seattle and has been drinking. Emily suggests that Alison make a concious effort to find out what's bothering Aaron, but like Alison, she finds it odd that Aaron would come back so soon after the Elwood incident. After Alison leaves, Emily goes to Memorial and stuns Susan by calling her out in regards to getting Aaron to return to Oakdale.

    Iris smiles and tells Will that she saw Hallie a while back and she looks amazing, so beautiful. Will shouts at Iris to leave Gwen and Hallie alone or she'll be sorry. Iris takes it as a threat and asks Will what he's planning to do. Will hashes out the check and tells her to name her price...just leave Oakdale. Iris smiles and takes the check, ripping it into little shreds. Iris tells Will that nothing will keep her away from her babies.

    As Lisa closes up the doors, she turns and finds Kim behind her. Greeting her old friend, she's horrified to learn from Kim that Susan is making another play towards Bob. Lisa suggests that Kim stop all this nonsense and confront Susan. Kim replies that she's done it countless times, but nothing ever comes of it. Susan just always smiles that she's helping a friend. Kim becomes infuriated when Lisa suggests that maybe after all Bob's been through, he relates to Susan because of the fact that she's had some turbulent parenting times, as well. Kim hisses that Bob should confide in her, not Susan, because she and Bob can handle anything together.

    Lyla's ecstatic to receive some company in the form of Margo and Casey. The three start chatting and Lyla learns that her grandson was recently thought to be Alison Stewart's stalker. Lyla hears from Margo about Lucinda and supports Margo's actions. However, Lyla suggests that Margo hand over the case. Margo scolds that she can handle this case better than anyone on the force would. After Margo leaves, Lyla and Casey bond over his past. Lyla comforts her conflicted grandson as he banters on about never being trusted again, telling him that anything is possible.

    Flipping through the paper, Noah's stampeded by tons of different articles about parenting. Everywhere he looks on TV, it seems, there's a baby on the screen. Luke comes home and notices Noah's upset but knowing it might erupt into a bigger fight than he's willing to tango with, he says nothing. After Noah leaves, Luke snoops around the apartment and finds a note, "Carrie...555-3490". Luke whips out his phone and starts dialing.

    Holden arrives to the jail and upon entrance, runs into Margo. Holden gives her hell for acting this way and tells Margo that she needs to let go of this bitterness towards Lucinda. Holden's finally able to bail out a fiesty, disruptive Lucinda, who barks to Margo and some rookie cop that she's suing the pants off the Oakdale Police Department. Giving one last stab at Margo, she hisses that Hal would never treat anyone like this.

    At Will and Gwen's, the couple enjoys a pleasant day at home. Will hears from his mom that she just spotted Iris and asks if Will has given her the blank check yet. Will looks at Gwen as she tells him to do what he must. Will maintains that by bribing Iris to leave town, he'll be doing them all a favor. Later, Iris and Will come face to face.

    Aaron comes in and asks Alison where she's going to in such a hurry. He chuckles that he just got back in town and she's not even going to give him a hug. Reluctantly, Aaron gives her a hug and Alison is repulsed by the stinch. Alison asks Aaron if he's been drinking and when Aaron denies it, she calls his bluff. Aaron replies that he came to town to save her. Alison smirks, as it seems that Aaron is the one who needs the saving.

    Meg comes downstairs at the farm and finds all the kids have gone back to school. Emma comments on Meg talking in her sleep last night and asks why she didn't stay with Paul. Meg laments that Paul has had work to do with B.R.O. and she doesn't feel like intruding. Little does Emma know that Meg's got a plan up her sleeve and is waiting for Rosanna to make a move for Paul.

    Emily wakes up from her nap and is shocked to see Alison and Susan pulling up in the driveway. Emily comments how she thought they'd go to the station, but Susan replies that Alison needs her rest and she told Margo any questioning could wait. Dusty arrives and Alison surprisingly acts a bit catty towards him. As Dusty takes Emily to get something to eat and head to the paper, Susan calls Alison on her attitude towards Dusty, saying that he might have saved her from a rape or even murder. Alison hisses that she had it all under control and finally breaks down telling Susan that she's tired of having to reply on everyone for help. Susan is shocked at Alison's bitterness and suggests she get some rest.

    Rosanna turns to see Gwen standing behind her. Rosanna wipes away tears and smiles, inviting Gwen to join her. Gwen brings Hallie out and notices Rosanna's staring at the newborn with tears in her eyes. Gwen asks Rosanna if she'd like to hold her and Rosanna beams. As Rosanna plays with Hallie, she admits that in a way, Meg is right. Rosanna is jealous of the fact that Meg can have children, but she can't. She's envious that the one woman that she hates in life more than anything can give a child to the man she loves more than anything. Gwen tells her that she'll always hold some resentment towards Carly for making her miscarry, but holding a grudge can only eat you alive from the inside. Both bond over the fact that Carly has done them wrong in the past, but what has happened has happened and it's meant to stay in the past. Gwen takes Hallie and as she starts to leave, Rosanna thanks her for her kind words. Gwen tells her that she's welcome to see Hallie anytime she wants. After all, they share a sister. Why shouldn't Carly and Rosanna share a niece? Rosanna smiles and thanks Gwen again as she watches Gwen walk away.

    Brad arrives for work and Katie notices the tension between herself and Brad. Katie asks for a break from filming and takes Brad aside. Katie tells Brad that she knows all about him getting drunk and she just wants to apologize. "I guess I could have broken it to you more easily," she says. "But I just can't see you and I as anything more than friends. I'm sorry." Brad takes Katie words and calmly replies that if she doesn't want him in his life, then consider it done. Before Katie can retort that she isn't saying she doesn't want Brad in her life at all, the director asks them to take their places. Later, Henry shows up to pick Brad up to go to a ball game and Katie tells Henry that she's sorry. She confesses that he's right as Henry confesses that he never mean what he said, "Bubbles". The two hug as Brad watches on with a twitch of betrayal in his eyes.

    Paul can see Meg in her room undressing and sneaks up behind her, kissing her shoulders and neck. Meg giggles and tells Paul to cut it out. She tells Paul that she has a meeting to go to. Paul tells her he'll be waiting on her when she gets home and Meg says she'll hold him to it. Outside, Meg revels in her victory, telling herself she'll be damned if Rosanna ever tries to one-up her again.

    Lucinda arrives at the police station and asks to speak with Margo. As Margo hands Elwood off to a deputy, she takes Lucinda into the interrogration room. Lucinda finally admits that Craig told her that he was leaving for Barbados to find Lucy and Johnny. Margo becomes furious and grills Lucinda as to why she's kept this such a secret. Lucinda snaps that she didn't think it could do any good in the investigation. Craig's dead. Good riddance. Lucinda's words infuriate Margo any further and Margo shocks Lucinda by starting to read her her rights. Lucinda, in a huff, asks Margo what the hell she's doing and Margo replies that Lucinda's under arrest for obstruction of justice!!

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

    The next morning, Susan tries to coddle Alison, fussing over her at breakfast. Alison tells her mother to stop treating her like a child. Alison shocks Susan by announcing she'll be looking for an apartment today. Susan worries and tells Alison that she has a right to be worried, Ali's last foray into adulthood ended in twin disasters: porn and meth. Alison stands firm, saying that she's tired of having to rely on everyone all the time. She wants to make a life for herself, not a life that others make for her. Susan pressure Ali to re-think this, but Ali thinks that's the real reason Susan wants her at home is to keep tabs on her. Susan denies it, unconvincingly, and leaves for work. Later, Aaron appears at the door, and Ali asks what brought him back so soon.

    After leaving Lucinda stew all night long, Margo visits Lucinda's jail cell. Indignant, Lucinda demands to call her lawyer. Margo reminds Lucinda she won't be treated differently than any other prisoner, and she'll have to wait her turn, thanks to a backlog of arrests. Scoffing at the scare tactic, Lucinda asks what Margo's really after with this power play. Margo huffs that justice isn't bought and sold like stocks. Lucinda insists that everything has a price---that was something Craig knew very well. Infuriated, Margo leaves. When Tom stops by her office for lunch, she's still visibly upset. He asks what she hopes to accomplish by charging Lucinda. Either way, it won't bring Craig back. Tom asks her to hand over the investigation into Craig's death. Meanwhile, Lucinda gets her one call, and reaches Holden at the farm. She demands he come and bail her out, since taking his advice landed her under arrest.

    Elwood sits in his jail cell, comically singing campfire songs and annoying the guards. The guard shuts him up and tells him that he's got a friend. Casey comes in and he almost strangles Elwood through the bars. Casey blasts him for going after Alison like that, but Elwood assures him he never wanted to hurt her. Elwood brings up the fact that he and Casey used to watch porn in their dorm room all the time and Casey never complained then. They thought it was cool. Casey informs Elwood that that was a year or so ago. He's a changed man now; he's not into porn anymore. Casey warns Elwood to get out of Oakdale as soon as he's released or he'll find a way to show him out of town. As Casey walks away, Elwood torments him by yelling that he can continue to keep believing he's a changed man, but they both know that it's a lie. Later, Casey arrives at Sofie's and reveals he has something to tell her. Casey ends up at Sophie's, and tells her that Elwood was Ali's stalker. Sophie tries to pacify Casey, but he ends up pinning her against the wall and kissing her.

    At the diner, a sullen Brad ignores Henry and gets a pep talk from Vienna. Henry tries to bolster Brad's spirits too, but Brad accuses him of getting exactly what he wanted---Brad out of Katie's life. Henry denies it, saying he only wants what's best for everyone. Katie doesn't even know what Katie wants. What she really needs is time to figure that out on her own. Brad accuses Henry of planting seeds of doubt against Brad in Katie's head. If she's scared, Henry defends, it's a sign she's not ready to give her heart. Be her friend, Henry suggests. Brad tells Henry that being her friend will only end in Brad getting his hopes up and heartbreak again. Brad snaps that Henry should know from experience. Before Vienna can defend her husband, Brad storms out.

    Noah runs in to Carrie at Java. Carrie asks if he's feeling as overwhelmed as she is about the baby, and that's why he hasn't tried to talk to her since she told him. Noah tells her he doesn't believe she's pregnant---at least not with his child. Humiliated, Carrie assures him she's not a slut, even if they did get drunk and hook up at a party. Grasping at straws, Carrie offers to give him her doctor's name, so he can confirm it himself. Noah realizes two things...Carrie's not backing down, and Luke will never forgive him for cheating on him with a woman. Panicking, Noah offers to support her decision---if she has an abortion. Carrie, shocked and hurt, slaps Noah and tells him that he's no better than any of the other guys she saw at that party. They all wanted one thing and teary eyed, Carrie blames herself for seeing a difference in Noah. Later, Luke runs into Carrie and he can see she's visibly upset.

    Susan commiserates with Bob at the hospital after her fight with Alison. They bond over worrying about their youngest children. Bob asks her advice in reviewing the applications for the new cancer specialist. Susan is impressed with one resume, and Bob admits that's the same person he was leaning toward. Susan remarks on the coincidence and asks if the doctor's connections to Oakdale influenced Bob at all. Bob admits that it was the only reason Bob had doubts and didn't offer the job immediately after the interview. From a distance, Kim sees them deep in discussion, and struggles to remain pleasant as she greets them both. Bob proudly informs Kim he and Susan have picked the perfect doctor to lead the new cancer center. Kim stews as Bob lavishly thanks Susan for her help.

    Barbara and Kim sit down at Al's and order some breakfast. Barbara thanks Kim for her support and shares how she and Margo bonded. Kim is shocked the two ladies are getting along and Kim says how proud both Jennifer's would be of Barbara for fighting this cancer. Barbara thanks Bob for all his help and Kim promises to run the message along to him. Later, Kim interrupts Bob at work and tells him of her talk with Barbara. Bob seems agitated and Kim asks Bob to relax. She knows being back at the hospital makes him think of Chris, but the best thing he can do is calm down and prove to her that he can get better.

    Susan clocks out at the hospital and as soon as she opens the door, she meets Dusty, Emily, Casey, and Alison. Alison breaks down in Susan's arms as Emily fills her mother in on what happened. As Alison is checked on by nurses, Susan tries to blame Casey, but Emily stops her and says that Casey has helped her alot. Susan asks where Aaron is and Dusty replies that he left town. Susan hurries Emily and Dusty home, saying that she knows they haven't slept all night. Dusty agrees to get the car taken care of and sends Emily home. Emily thanks him for helping her sister once again and kisses him. Later, Susan makes a call and tells Aaron to come back home.

    Lucinda drops by and finds Holden giving Ethan his bottle. Lucinda asks where the kids are and he replies that they have Spring Break this week, so they're all asleep still. Holden tells Lucinda about Lily leaving town to find Johnny and Lucy. Lucinda informs Holden that she knew Craig was headed to the Bahamas, but she figured he was just playing some mind game with everyone and would eventually return. Holden asks why she never told Margo about this and Lucinda says that Margo now knows because of Lily finding out from Craig's old friend. And plus, there's really nothing she could add to help along the investigation. Lucinda starts to criticize Lily for leaving town and leaving Holden all alone, but Holden defends her, saying that Lucinda should know her own daughter would be as stubborn as she is. Holden encourages Lucinda to tell Margo everything.

    Startled by the doorbell, Carly answers it to find Rosanna. Rosanna cries to Carly how no one believe her when she tells them that Meg is deceiving Paul. Although hesitant, Carly reveals that Rosanna is her sister and if she says Meg wasn't pregnant to begin with, she believes her. Rosanna catches Carly's hesitance and accuses her of not believing Rosanna. Carly admits that she thinks this whole thing between the three of them has gotten a tad too complex and hurries off to work, promising to call Rosanna later. At work, Carly's surprised to find flowers on her desk. Carrie comes in and compliments Carly on them but soon leaves when Jack arrives. Carly thanks Jack for the flowers and accepts his "apology" for being jealous of her date. Jack maintains that he isn't jealous in the least bit and he sure didn't send her flowers. Jack eyes Carly as she reads the card, "Thanks for a wonderful time. We'll have to do it again. Sincerely, Wagner." Carly locks eyes with Jack as he too realizes who the flowers are from. Carly apologizes for jumping to conclusions as Jack makes an excuse for his visit and leaves.

    On her way to the bookstore, Rosanna runs into Paul, who akwardly says hello. Rosanna tells Paul that after all that they've been through, she's just now starting to realize that Paul is the one for her. However, it seems that when one is ready, the other of them goes into some sort of denial. Rosanna tells Paul that she knows that he has feelings for her. She begs him to trust her, citing that she would never lie to him just to get him all to herself. But, she cautions, that's exactly what Meg is doing. Paul accuses Rosanna of trying to sabatoge his relationship with Meg and begs her to just leave them alone. Rosanna sits on a bench and cries after Paul leaves. She flinches when she feels someone beside her.

    Lyla's startled from her slumber by a knock on the door and finds Katie crying on the other side. Katie tells Lyla about letting Brad down after she realized she might be leading him on and Henry telling her that she caused the demise of most of her relationships. Katie asks Lyla what's wrong with her and Lyla finally tells Katie what she's thought all along. Katie's constant need for a man in her life is probably triggered by the absence of her father. Lyla breaks into tears as she hushes Katie's cries. Katie says how much she misses her dad and the two soon find themselves laughing at some funny memories of Casey. Katie tells Lyla that she's glad she's not giving up and she's going to fight this cancer. Katie cries she doesn't know what she would do without her mother. As Lyla leans into kiss her forehead, she realizes Katie's cried herself asleep.

    Luke flinches when he hears the doorbell and bolts from the bed. He's shocked to find Noah's "classmate" on the other side. Carrie introduces herself and asks to speak with Noah. Luke notes the late hour, but Carrie says it can't wait. An eavesdropping Noah soon enters and whisks Carrie outside. Noah asks how Carrie can know for sure that she's pregnant. Carrie doesn't remember Noah even wearing a condom and says that some blood work from her check up showed she was pregnant. Carrie pleads for Noah to be with her on this as Luke fights the temptation to listen in on their conversation. Finally, he gives in and listens as Noah tells Carrie to just take care of it and asks how she found him in the first place. Carrie reminds him that he gave her his contact information earlier in the day at Al's. Noah returns and Luke asks Noah what the hell is going on. Noah lies again and says that they have a paper that's due tomorrow and Noah never did his, so he's paying his classmate to type it for him. Luke takes it with a grain of salt and silently vows to find the answers himself.

    Carly's blonde hair glows against the fluorescent street lights as Wagner drops her off at her house. Wagner asks if she had fun and Carly replies that she had a wonderful time. Wagner almost kisses Carly, but she backs out before their lips can meet, citing that it's late and she has work in the morning. Wagner drives off as Carly fumbles for her keys. She notices a light on in the house as we see Jack noticing her silhoutte outside. Jack pretends like he's asleep as Carly comes in. Carly tells Jack he can knock it off. Her dad played that trick plenty of times when she was in high school. She knows when someone's waiting up on her. Jack asks how her date went and Carly tell him it went well. Once again, Carly sees the jealous gleam in Jack's eye and calls him on it. Jack denies it and changes the subject, saying that he's going to Emma's to get some sleep. Carly asks about the kids and Jack says that they're all at a sleepover since it's Spring Break. Carly glances at the clock and then at Jack and bids him goodnight as she walks up the stairs to an empty bed and Jack drives home to Emma's.

    Alison starts to put it all together. She realizes that Elwood was Casey's roommate in college and they probably both shared a love for the crazy phrase "hot little mama". She makes a run for it, but Elwood catches her and starts to grope her. Meanwhile, Dusty and Emily run out of gas and run to catch up to Alison at Metro. They finally get there and Dusty slings Elwood off of Alison. Elwood pulls out a knife and tries to stab Dusty, but to no avail. While Dusty beats Elwood to a bloody pulp despite Emily and Alison's screaming protests, Emily calls Margo, who rouses from bed and starts to get ready. Tom asks what's going on and as she fills him in, Casey (who was awakened by his mother's voice) listens in. Casey hears Elwood was the one stalking Alison and begs his mom to let him go. Even though she refuses, Casey sneaks out anyway and keeps Alison company while they watch Margo handcuff Elwood.

    Dusty comes over to Susan's upon Emily's request and she fills him in, saying that Alison just left. Dusty's furious that Alison would go out alone, but Emily's concerned that she's going to confront the Myspace stalker head on. Concerned, Emily gets Dusty to break into Alison's Myspace and sees that she sent the stalker a message to meet her at the abandoned Metro building and she'd make his wildest fantasies come true. Dusty and Alison grab their coats and rush out the door.

Alison says she's waiting on someone and Elwood offers to wait with her. Open to some companionship, Alison agrees and the two soon make small talk. Elwood badgers Alison about who she's meeting and Alison reveals that some pervert keeps sending her Myspace messages and she wants to face him head on.

Alison winces as she realizes Elwood is her stalker.

    As Carly gets ready, she's interrupted by Jack's firm knocks on the door. Jack blasts Carly for putting off picking up Parker because she has a date. Carly wonders aloud to Jack if he's upset that she's not picking up Parker because she has a hot date or because of her date. Jack glances at his watch and leaves the question unanswered, citing that he's late to pick up Parker. Later, Carly answers the door in a tight fitting blue dress as Wagner Dennison introduces himself and ask Carly if she's ready.

    Luke turns the key to unlock the apartment door and starts kissing Noah as soon as he enters the door. Noah tells Luke to cut it out. Luke stares at Noah, confused, and asks what's wrong. Luke mentions how Noah hasn't been himself since he saw that classmate from Oakdale U. earlier. Luke asks Noah what she said to upset him so bad as Noah flashes back to Carrie telling him she's pregnant. To himself, he wonders how she could know so quickly that she's pregnant when their drunken roll in the sheets was only three weeks ago. Meanwhile, Carrie waltzes into her apartment and checks the messages. After hearing the new messages, she re-plays a message from her doctor. "Carrie, this is Dr. Henson. Your check-up went well, but your blood tests seem to show something surprising. Please call me at your earliest convenience." Carrie remembers how she called the doctor back and he explained that during her check-up, they did a blood test which showed the presence of the HCG hormone. "What does that mean?" she innocently asked. "Carrie, you're pregnant." The doctor's words continue to ring through her ears as Carrie tries to go to sleep.

    On the couch watching TV, Katie's bolted out of her seat by a knock on the door. Henry rears his head and asks to speak with Katie. Katie obliges and asks if everything's okay. Henry replies that this isn't about him, to which Katie panics, wondering if Lyla is alright. Henry tells Katie to calm down...he's here because he picked up a drunk Brad last night at Yo's. Katie's skin tightens at the mention of his name and recalls how he called in sick today at work. Henry tells Katie that Brad might have very well been sick from all the tequila shots he drank last night and asks Katie what she said to get Brad so upset. Katie asks Henry why she seems to be taking Brad's side and replies that she simply told him that she doesn't share the same feelings for Brad as he does for her. Henry tells Katie that while Brad might not be Jack, he's still human and deserves a chance. Katie hisses that Henry should butt out and tend to his new bride rather than fiddle in her relationship problems. As he walks to the door, Henry tells Katie that all her life, she's blamed others for her less than glamorous love life. Perhaps she should do some soul searching and she'd find that the demise of most of her relationships lies partly in her hands. Infuriated, Katie slams the door in Henry's face and begins to break down.

Later, Lily runs into a former friend and business partner of Craig's. He issues sympathies at Craig's passing, noticing her from old family photos.

Alison calls Aaron and he ignores her call. Alison tracks him down at the Lily and Holden's. Aaron says Alison was right. He can only see her as a porn star, not the girl he once knew.

He'll be back in a few weeks. Alison promises Aaron that leaving town isn't going to solve his problems.

Will asks what the hell she thinks she's doing and Iris politely asks that Will refrain from cursing in her presence, holding her Bible by her side. Will asks what Iris is up to this time, and Iris confesses that she's been saved by the Lord and has come to mend ways with her daughter and son-in-law.

    Mantegna's world starts turning!

    Joe Mantegna joins the cast of "A New World Turns" in the role of Michael Peretti, beginning April 9th. Michael is the older brother of the deceased Casey Peretti, whose wife Lyla and daughter Katie reside in Oakdale. A well known cancer specialist, Michael comes to Oakdale when he is asked to head the new cancer center at Oakdale Memorial. Mantegna is a Tony-award winning actor who recently landed a lead role on CBS's "Criminal Minds". Luckily, ANWT producers were able to work out a flexible schedule with Mantegna who shoots "Criminal Minds" in California. "Joe will be traveling alot, but it's something that he was able to cope with," says Executive Producer and Headwriter Dusty Alford. "We're ecstatic to have an actor of Joe's caliber here with us and we're excited about the story that he'll take part in". Mantegna's first episodes were with Don Hastings and rumors hint that Michael will be working with Anne Sward, Marie Masters, Terri Colombino, Elizabeth Hubbard, and Colleen Zenk Pinter.

    In other news, Marie Wilson ["Meg"] has been let go from "A New World Turns" due to storyline-dictated reasons. "It was hard learning I'd be leaving," says Wilson. "But I'm excited for more opportunities to come. I feel no hard feeling towards any of the staff at 'ANWT'. They've been so great to me, and I totally agree with them. I think 'Meg' has run her course for now." Wilson's last airdate has not yet been decided, although it will probably be early April.

    Martha Byrne will be sticking around alot longer this time around. "When I was with 'ATWT', I opted to sign a one-year contract," says Byrne. "After the regime change and the name change, I wasn't sure if there was still room for me in 'ANWT's hearts, but thankfully, Dusty showed me that there was and now, I'm sticking around for 3 years!"

    Lastly, a casting call has been sent out for "Shawn". "Shawn", a handsome young man well into his twenties, is a short-term role that will kick off a big story.

Rosanna and Paul make a plan to catch Meg.

Lucinda asks how Noah took it and Luke replies that Noah hasn't been the same since. Noah refuses to talk to him and mostly watches TV and then goes to bed. Lucinda asks Luke if he's apologized and Luke says "countless times", but Noah just won't answer. Lucinda offers to talk to him, but Luke denies her offer.
