    Casting & Episode News

    By Matt P.,

    It's season finale week on Point Palace. Students will be coming and some will be going. One of which who will be returning is James Franco last seen on Episode 92, will be returning in Episode 100 and 101. Franco's contract with the show is under review as Bryan Daniels maybe seen a lot longer. Episode 101 will be the shocking season finale with an ending that will be too good to miss!

    One character will be returning back from the dead, but who? Executive Producer Matt Politylo is very hush hush about who it is. "There have been so many characters who left this season that the possibilities are endless. However, this return is a very big story plot."

    Another character returning is Owen Newlan (Matt DiAngelo) will be found on Episode 100 and 101 but then will be leaving. DiAngelo's future with the show looks grim as he points out. "I've been written out, what exactly can you do? I was happy to be a part of the cast for the past two years but the writing was on the wall once Owen was kidnapped." DiAngelo's on screen sister Alexia Newlan (Nectar Rose) and girlfriend Tanisha Jones (Davetta Sherwood) are also concerned about where they lie in Point Palace. Alexia debuted the same time Owen did and Tanisha was first seen in the third season until being bumped up to contract status the following season.

    There has been talks in recent episodes about the return of the ex-President of Point Palace University and now the character is coming to light. All My Children star David Canary tackles the role of Howard Ballinger. Canary's character will be the deciding factor over a plot that has taken over the show for the past two seasons. Canary will be on guest starring basis but is possible to be upgraded to recurring. Find out who will take control over the school because it will not rest on a cliffhanger!

    Three more episodes are left until the season finale and Point Palace creator Matt Politylo dishes over the excitement. "The upcoming episodes are riviting, surprising, and of course dramatic. This season's season finale is the best. The readers will truly be shocked!"

    The fifth season opening is in the works and Politylo says that it keeps with season five's theme of a blue background and colored stills. Look for that to come out very soon.

    It’s a Party of Five, well sort of. Three cast members of the cancelled FOX drama have reunited with Point Palace day player Lacey Chabert (London). Neve Campbell will be playing London’s oldest sister Joanie, Matthew Fox plays Joanie’s husband Derek Havenworth, and Scott Wolf plays London’s older brother Bradley. Jennifer Love Hewitt was in talks to play Joanie but couldn’t due to scheduling conflicts. Fox was the hardest to book because of his tied down schedule to the ABC show Lost but took time out to watch Lacey’s character be married to Daniel Cosgrove (Blake).

    “Little Claudia’s grown up.” Fox commented.



    Joining the family will be London’s mother Patricia played by Mimi Kennedy and Alan Rachins plays London’s father Gavin Tyler. The two are also reunited since the cancellation of the ABC sitcom Dharma and Greg.



    In other casting news, Sylvania Harris (Trella) has been replaced by singer and actress Adrienne Bailon. The recast was due to an updated character look. Bailon’s first airdate will be in Episode 66.

    By Matt P.,

    Season 4's casting has been going through major changes. New guest stars are appearing as well as a new recurring member. Guiding Light supercouple Tom Pelphey (ex-Jonathan) and Stephanie Gaschet (ex-Tammy) guest as soap opera actors Abhram Heller and Elise Brandine from the fictional teen soap opera Wellington Arbor to present an award to Carlos (Jordi Vilasuso) who so happens to be an ex-GL star as well.

    One Life to Live star John-Paul Lavoisier (Rex) guests as reporter Mark V. Lavoisier is in talks with the show to possibly come back as Mark for another episode since the character now has ties to bad boy Bryan Daniels (James Franco). Franco's character is planned to be taking a leave of absence very soon but will return from time to time.

    Days of Our Live star Deidre Hall joins the recurring cast as Dr. Elizabeth Reed. Hall's character is a psychologist who helps Carrie (Sarah Lancaster) and Dylan (Matt Bible) figure out why Carrie's been acting like she's ten years old.

    Creator Matt Politylo comments on what's to come for the new season. "This season is a bit darker and though we've already seen the loss of a few characters it's a soap opera so of course anything can happen. Especially with these characters, not to mention anyone in particular, but deaths are never final in this private college!"

    Ex-One Life to Live star Christina Chambers is returning as Juliana DiMarco. Chambers was last seen in Season 2 helping John (Ryan Gaus) with trying to find Carrie (Sarah Lancaster) when Carrie was residing in Lexington. Chambers will be paired with on screen brother Victor DiMarco (Angelo Gotti, Jr.)

    Along with the arrival of The DiMarcos, comes The Slondsbids. Carrie's mother Mary Ann and Michael Slondsbid are being played by ex-Port Charles supercouple Lynn Herring and Jon Lindstrom.

    Another Point Palace character will be exiting very soon. Series creator Matthew Preston comments "Unfortunately this season continues to hack its character list but the character exit is storyline exit." Matt Di Angelo's character Owen Newlan will stay on the cast canvas but will be seldom scene due to another storyline.

    Point Palace will return on Wedensday October 31st and with the new episodes comes a few returns, surprise exits, and some new faces...

    London (Lacey Chabert) returns for a video appearance in Episodes 96 and 97. Along with Chabert's brief return comes her family members who were last seen at London's funeral service. General Hospital star Ric Hearst will guest star in both episodes as London's attorney E.J. James.

    Another guest star is The Young and The Restless starlette Adrienne Frantz as Cody Memorial nurse Stephanie. Stephanie debuts in Episodes 97 and 98. Frantz's old co-star from The Bold and The Beautiful, turned All My Children lead Bobbie Eakes will guest as nurse Ivory Goldie. The character has been discussed but was only seen from a far before the actress was cast. Eakes's character makes her apperance on Episode 98. (A fun fact about Ivory Goldie is that the character is based upon one of Point Palace's many readers who had asked to be written into the plot.)

    Creator Matt Politylo comments on yet another exit which will surely shock readers. "For storyline purposes, one cast member will be murdered." Politylo teases. "The storyline exit is a huge plot which will shoot into the fifth season. Everyone loves a good murder mystery and the character who does bite the big one, definitely has it coming."

    The biggest, baddest, witch of Point Palace is back! Lorena Chacon reprises her role as the evil Nan Sheridan. Last seen during the Gala Explosion, Nan's character was supposed to be brought back in a huge way, says Point Palace creator Matt Politylo.

    "First off it's Nan Sheridan. Second she's capable of anything. What a way to come back to start up the ongoing war that she has had with her nemesis Blake Hammerton (Daniel Cosgrove). Blake isn't going to be the only vendetta that Nan wants to go up against. Later in the season, we'll see a Jenny (Geneva Hyman) versus Nan storyplot."

    The cast list has been set but another character from Season 4 is leaving the campus. Deborah Zoe who started playing soap opera actress C.C. Chastity in Season 3 just taped her last episode. It has been revealed that C.C.'s character was the one who killed Nick (Mike Dietz) from Season 4. Zoe and the show left on good terms with the possibility of a return in the future.

    Numerous guest stars are coming to Point Palace. Look for The Bold and The Beautiful star Dan McVicar to play Antonio, a wealthy fashion designer who gets involved with John's (Ryan Gaus) career. ER and film star Mehki Phifer guests as Doctor Vexen, a fertility clinic specialist for Jenny (Geneva Hyman) and Carlos (Jordi Vilasuso.)

    To make it a love quadrangle Christel Khalili will be a recurring cast member with possible contract upgrade status as her character Rena will be involved with Jace (Matthew Lawrence), Will (Jim Carnicela), and her roommate Alicia (Holly Valance.) Another guest star turned recurring is reporter/paparazo Mark (John-Paul Lavossier). Lavossier was last seen in Season 4 but will be the bad reporter trying to get a story any which way he can, according to series creator Matt Politylo.

    Then bad girl Nan Sheridan (Lorena Chacon) will be playing yet another Sheridan sibling. Look for Chacon to pull up triple duty when she plays Anna Lee Sheridan. Politylo describes this interesting new character:

    "We've seen twins in soap operas, Nan's already had a twin who died in Season 1, so I wanted to make a triplet who is different from her. Anna Lee is the fragile Sheridan. We'll see Nan try to protect her but of course use her for a selfish gain. Anna Lee does have a purpose and it won't be revealed until Season 6."

    Dylan Colby's (Matt Bible) mother and cousin are coming to town in a special plot that is being kept underwraps. Kim Zimmer will be on recurring as Lana Colby and Dylan's cousin Jason Colby (Scott Clifton) returns in later episodes for a few guest apperances. Another recurring member is ex-OLTL star David Satterfield who comes on as Sean Asters, a businessman looking for a job on the Point Palace schoolboard.

    Production for Point Palace has slowed down according to series creator Matt Politylo who claims that episodes will be coming out once a week, compared to twice a week.

    Former pop star turned actor, Joey Murray of the band ATC, has joined the Point Palace roster as S.R. Reardon. His character is connected to the mysterious Marli Calloway (Danica Stewart). Look for Murray to debut in Episode 116 and of course stir up trouble for Marli's future at Point Palace. Series creator Matt Politylo discusses this big front burner plot:

    "There were many versions to what Marli was supposed to be but the revelation to her sole purpose is mind blowing. It's one of those things where you're going to have re-read it out of shock and though it may take awhile to lay it all out, it's definitely worth the wait!"

    Point Palace has returned from hiatus and with it, new and old characters are set to show up on the scene. The newest to join is actress Andrea F. Friedman as Bobbie. Friedman is best known for her portrayal of Amanda Swanson on the family drama Life Goes On. Friedman's character Bobbie will be spending a lot of time with Ava (Kim Stolz).

    A past character returns but it's being kept secret who it is. Nan (Lorena Chacon) has been hiding someone for many months and the reveal is shocking.

    Also make sure to look for the return of Adrienne Frantz who was last seen playing Nurse Stephanie from Season 4. She has made a new friend in town and acts very much like her on screen character Amber Moore from The Young and The Restless. No plans have been made if Frantz's time in Cody will be extended to a recurring role.

    "This next episode has a few reveals. Nan's secret guest and Marli's reason for being at Point Palace pushes the series to go over creative boundaries that haven't been explored before." Point Palace creator Matt Politylo explains. "Now that I've finished wrapping My Bloody Valentine 3-D, which has taken up a lot of my time, Point Palace will have less hiatuses! Hopefully." He says while crossing his fingers.

    It's official, Lacey Chabert returns as London Tyler Hammerton. Chabert knew that her character would be returning for a third time so she made herself available for filming. Creator Matt Politylo says that Chabert will be with the cast until the end. She's not going anywhere!

    There are tons of visitors coming to Point Palace. Two of which are Dylan Colby's (Matt Bible) siblings. Aubrey Dollar plays younger sister Vi and Bradford Anderson comes on as younger brother Ryley. The two will be seen on recurring for the big wedding between Dylan and Carrie (Sarah Lancaster).

    Two cast members have been dropped to recurring: Sky Safford (Heather Papinchak) and Anna Lee Sheridan (Lorena Chacon). Sky may be seen interacting with a certain Palace Cafe manager. Anna Lee will be leaving but will be keeping in touch with her triplet.

    America's Next Top Model Cycle 8 winner Jaslene Gonzalez guests as Jalenda a very colorful client of Marissa's (Lesli Kay) who drops what kind of shocking business is going down in Cody, Colorado. There's so much to tune in for!

    On SONOP’s Point Palace, Guiding Light star Maeve Kinkaid returns as Dr. Harnlo. Kinkaid was last scene helping London (Lacey Chabert) with her baby problems. The secret that she was harboring in Season 3 will come to light.

    As previously reported, film star James Franco exits as bad boy Bryan Daniels on Episode 86. Franco’s character is slated to return later in the season. “It was so much fun playing a villain on this outrageous show,” Franco comments on his short run.

    The format for the show may be changing since five screenwriters have been added to the writing team. Tristina Marx, Serena Greene, Abdul Ah-Nahkli, SON member Na’Vell J. Lee, and Point Palace star Dani Rowley (Alley) write various episodes from time to time throughout Season 4. The first is Marx who debuts on Episode 86.

    In other news, Point Palace is being looked at as consideration into being filmed for a pilot by the blog’s own star Michael Dietz. Dietz owns a Los Angeles based production company called Lucky 7 and is currently viewing the script.

    Previously on Point Palace:

    - Alexia was about to get caught for breaking and entering into Nurse Ivory Goldie's home except Tanisha stalled just in time. They got what they needed, the number to Owen's hospital. Both girls couldn't wait to go but Tanisha was weary about how they would get in.

    (With the news of London appearing alive, Blake and Alley quickly book a flight to France together. Blake couldn't believe it and he didn't know what to expect. London was alive. Alley still had her doubts. They settle in their hotel room. Blake plops himself down on the bed.)

    Blake:
    This truly is a miracle! London's alive! How amazing is that? This whole time we all thought she was dead but she wasn't. It kind of makes sense. We didn't go to the cremation. She was saved.

    Alley:
    Believe me, I'm so happy for you, but it seems a little too surreal.

    Blake:
    Everything in our lives are surreal. Does she even know that I'm here? What are we going to say to each other?

    Alley:
    Whatever it is, the first thing that should be asked is why the hell she left in the first place.

    Blake:
    Supposedly someone found her. She was breathing.

    Alley:
    Like I said, things just aren't adding up. Look, you play the devoted husband with her, and I'll try to find out the facts. We'll make a team.

    Blake:
    What does John think about all of this?

    Alley:
    I haven't talked to him since yesterday. He might be mad that the nanny had to take care of L.J. but I couldn't wait up for him. This was too important.

    (Alley pulls her cell phone out of her purse. Blake takes out his cell phone to call practically everyone. John answers on the second ring.)

    John:
    (sleepy)
    Hello?

    Alley:
    Hey.

    John:
    Where are you? I came in late last night and Blake's nanny was taking care of L.J. Which was smart that someone was looking out for her.

    Alley:
    Have you heard the news?

    John:
    What news? The interview went so well that I ended up going out to dinner with my future boss.

    Alley:
    London's alive.

    John:
    (surprised)
    Alive? Are you serious?

    Alley:
    It was briefly all over the news. Blake found out and we're both in France right now. We don't know anything yet but I'll keep you updated.

    John:
    That's great but I wish you were here with me. I know that you're a good friend to Blake but I need you too.

    Alley:
    Well I needed you to be there for your daughter. You dropped everything for your sake and I dropped everything for his.

    John:
    Then I should be there too.

    Alley:
    Listen, obviously London will be returning to Point Palace. You'll see her then, she'll be reunited with her husband and her child. The answer to how she's alive will unfold.

    John:
    I need to go back to sleep.

    Alley:
    And I need to reevaluate a few things. Like you and me!

    (In pure Alley mode, she let her words to do all the talking. She quickly hangs up on John, who on the other end was shaking his head, but then went back to sleep. Alley watched as Blake was at his highest happy point ever.)

    - - -
    (Back at the Administrative Wing of Point Palace University, a school board meeting was beginning to start. Dylan was taking over for Blake. Everyone got silent so that Dylan could start the meeting.)

    Dylan:
    Surely we've all heard the good news about Blake.

    Myra:
    It's amazing! I feel so privileged to be the first one to tell him too.

    Dylan:
    While Blake is overseas, I will briefly be taking over until he returns.

    Benjamin:
    That would make sense. You are after all vice president.

    (Dylan smiled at the compliment until he heard a very familiar voice.)

    Bryan:
    The position that I originated!

    Dylan:
    What the hell are you doing here?

    Lanoi:
    Yes Bryan. You know that you're not welcome here! Myra will you please call campus security to have Mister Daniels removed from the premises.

    Bryan:
    Myra that won't be necessary after what I have to say. Lanoi, Benjamin, Dylan it is so good to see you all. I know that we ended things on a really bad note. I might have had some guilty association with that whole explosion fiasco but nobody can prove anything. Nan's dead and after all, she was the one who did it. Not me!

    Dylan:
    We'll open the floor to new business but you're old business.

    Bryan:
    I've learned a few things about how this school runs. The politics behind it is quite intriguing. The Hammertons buy it for their pride and joy but before them someone else bought this school as I'm sure it was bought from someone else.

    Lanoi:
    What are you implying Mister Daniels? We could have you arrested for your involvement but you didn't keep to your bargain. You were supposed to never come back.

    Benjamin:
    She's right Bryan. Make your point and leave. Before you find yourself in a heap of trouble.

    Bryan:
    Though your threats are very touching you can't prove a thing. Since Nan's declared dead, everything was taken away. Including that piece of evidence that Blake found.

    Dylan:
    You're a disgrace to this school.

    Bryan:
    Since the Hammertons bought the school, I collected enough money to make all of your heads spin.

    (Bryan pulls out his checkbook from the pocket of his suit jacket.)

    Bryan:
    How much money will it take to own Point Palace? Believe me, I'll offer more than Edmund Hammerton could ever dream of telling you. Just name your price.

    - - -
    (Alexia and Tanisha walk into the hospital that was holding Owen in Raleigh, North Carolina. Tanisha gets the attention of the receptionist.)

    Tanisha:
    Can you please help me? I'm looking for Owen Newlan.

    Receptionist:
    Mister Newlan is only allowed specific visitors.

    Tanisha:
    I know but I'm a part of a volunteer organization. Both of us are actually. Owen is one of the patients that we were here to see.

    Receptionist:
    May I see some ID please.

    Alexia:
    I don't have mine but I think she does.

    (Tanisha pulls out her ID from an old volunteer form from long ago. The receptionist accepts it.)

    Receptionist:
    I'll let you both go. His room is around the corner, to the left.

    Tanisha:
    Thank you.

    (Alexia and Tanisha giggle to one another while they walk to the room.)

    Alexia:
    You're too good.

    (They stop when they get in front of Owen's hospital room.)

    Tanisha:
    This is it sister. We made it this far to find him.

    (Alexia and Tanisha open the door to find Owen on his hospital bed watching television. He turns around to find both girls before him. Alexia stood their, speechless with a big smile on her face. She was so happy to see him.)

    Owen:
    (in a deaf tone)
    I didn't hear you come in. I'm still a little deaf. Good news is, the doctors here have been trying to help me. It's getting better and better each day. I've even mastered sign language.

    (He signs 'I love you' to Alexia. She ran to him to hug him with tears pouring down her face.)

    Owen:
    Don't cry sis.

    Alexia:
    These aren't sad tears. They're happy tears. I'm so happy to see you. I'm so happy to know that you're alive. We were worried sick about you, thinking that you were kidnapped or that you might have been dead!

    Tanisha:
    This scene is just so touching to see you two together. I think I'm going to cry too.

    Owen:
    I've missed you too Tanisha. There's been dreams of me holding you at night but they never came true.

    Tanisha:
    Until now.

    (Alexia stands up to let Tanisha hug Owen. She kisses his cheek. He continues to hold her.)

    Owen:
    I needed that.
    (joking)
    The nurses wouldn't kiss me like you would.

    (Alexia kneels down next to him.)

    Alexia:
    We need you to tell us what you know about this place. Like how you got here and by who.

    Owen:
    Some nurse brought me here. The lady stayed with me while we flew here.

    Tanisha:
    Her name was Ivory right? She's kind of older.

    Owen:
    Yeah. She told me that they were going to fix my hearing problem and the other things. I realized that I had a problem. It wasn't good to be suicidal. Life is too good to pass up. They've been helping me with that here too.

    Alexia:
    Why did Ivory bring you here? Do you know Owen?

    Owen:
    Yeah. She was hired by someone.

    Alexia:
    Who? Who hired Ivory to take you away?

    (Jenny was taken to the Cody Prison by Detective Miltner minutes after she called in to Detective Miltner. Watching Jenny go was one of the hardest things Carlos witnessed. He felt as if it was his fault, just because of his anger towards Nick, yet again hurt his relationship with Jenny. He just kept screaming to let her go.)

    Carlos:
    No! She didn't do it! Please! Let her go. Let her go!

    Det. Miltner:
    Sorry but she called in and confessed. We have to arrest her.

    Carlos: (to Jenny)
    Tell them you didn't do it.

    (Jenny stood silent. She just slightly shook her head. The other cops with Detective Miltner led her into the police car. Everything happened in a blur to Carlos, he was just furious that she was being arrested. What angered him was that he couldn't do anything to save her.)

    (The flashback ends. Carlos waits for Jenny to join him at the telephone conference. A buzzer sounds and a guard leads her to the chair. She smiles at him. They both pick up the payphone like receivers.)

    Jenny:
    Hey you. Thanks for visiting.

    Carlos:
    Why? Why did you have to do this?

    Jenny:
    I told you. It was to save you!

    Carlos:
    But I don't need saving. If anything this just makes things worse for me. I couldn't sleep last night. I kept tossing and turning hoping and praying that you were okay.

    Jenny:
    I'm doing fine in here. The other inmates are actually leaving me alone. I don't talk to them, they don't talk to me.

    Carlos:
    You don't deserve this. You didn't do anything. You didn't kill Nick!

    Jenny:
    Maybe I did. No one knows. I could have went to his office and killed him.

    Carlos:
    That's bull and you know it!

    Jenny:
    Is it? We don't know what happened. Just like you could've been drunk and killed Nick. I have to protect you because I love you.

    Carlos:
    Stop saying that. Damn it you didn't kill Nick and I know it. I'll find out who did it. As for Detective Miltner, you let me handle him. Even if turns out that I was the one who did it, then I'll be held accountable for my actions. This was so stupid on your part. Just survive this. You'll be out before you know it.

    Jenny:
    I hope so. The killer's out there and it might be you. That scares me because we all know Nick deserved it. You, me, Agatha, a patient who had it in for him, C.C., or anyone could have done it. This isn't stupid, I'm just making sure that you're not the prime suspect since you pretty much are!

    (Carlos put his hand up to the glass. Jenny put hers against his. Beyond the cool clear glass, they both felt each other's touch.)

    Jenny:
    You know I'm a strong girl Carlos.

    Carlos:
    That's why I love you.

    (In Carrie's room, she is sitting relaxing on her couch. All she could think about was Dylan who calls her on her cell phone.)

    Carrie:
    Hey you. I was just thinking about you.

    Dylan:
    That's funny because I was just thinking about you too. How about we get together tonight after I'm out of the office. There's good news all around. London's alive and Blake's going to see her.

    Carrie:
    That's great to hear. Hold on I have a beep.

    Dylan:
    I'll just see you later tonight.

    Carrie:
    Bye hun.

    (Carrie switches over to the other line.)

    Carrie:
    Hello?

    Juliana:
    You don't know hard it is for me to be calling you right now. Before you hang up, please just listen to what I have to say.

    - - -
    (In France, Blake and Alley take a taxi ride to meet with London at a country side house where she had been staying. The people who were taking care of her had given them the address. Blake was so full of questions as was Alley.)

    (The taxi stops and Blake gives him the money.)

    Blake:
    Merci monsieur.

    (They walk up to the large house which had the true French looking decor to it.)

    Blake:
    I can't believe it. I get to see London, I get to be reunited with my wife.

    Alley:
    We'll see.

    Blake:
    Please don't be a bitch.

    Alley:
    I won't...maybe just a little.

    (Blake knocks on the door. An older man answers it with a smile on his face.)

    Blake:
    Bonjour monsieur. Je suis Blake Hammerton et elle est Alley Robberts. Ou est London, si vous plait?

    Fernec:
    Ahh...tres bien. Je m'appelle Fernec.

    (A woman walks up next to Fernec.)

    Fernec:
    Elle s'appelle Isabelle. Isabelle est mon femme.

    Isabelle:
    Enchante monsieur et madameoiselle.

    Alley:
    Nice to meet you all. We're here to see London. I didn't study French so, hopefully you know English.

    Fernec:
    Yes. Follow me.

    (They followed Fernec and Isabelle throughout his home to the backyard. In a chair, there she was. London was sitting down reading a book. She notices Blake and Alley with Fernec and Isabelle. London gets up and runs over to hug him.)

    London:
    I'm so happy to see you!

    Blake:
    Honey you have no idea.

    (Blake and London kiss each other.)

    Blake:
    I have so many questions for you. I'm just so happy to see you.

    Alley:
    Yeah, it's a miracle isn't it. You go from being dead to alive without any explanation. It's like magic.

    London:
    Oh Alley. You're still the same.

    Isabelle:
    We'll leave you to be. If you need anything we'll be upstairs.

    London:
    Merci Isabelle.

    (Isabelle and Fernec exit.)

    London:
    Come sit down. You can ask me anything you want.

    Alley:
    How did you turn up alive? What happened?

    London:
    Well. I thought I was dying. It turns out that I was only asleep for twenty-three hours. They call it sleeping beauty syndrome. And I thought that I was dead from giving birth but it turns out that there was a blood clott that was fixable. It just was hard to find.

    Blake:
    Yeah I saw that on the news.

    London:
    That's why my breathing was low when you thought I was dead. My body was sent to the crematorium but I woke up just in time and escaped. I didn't know where I was or what I was doing. I'd lost my memory from the exhaustion.

    Alley:
    How did you end up in France?

    London:
    Fernec and Isabelle found me. They're actually doctors and told me that they could help me but I would have to go to France with them. Little by little, everything returned to me. Then I remembered you Blake. I went on television to find you. So that we can be together again.

    Blake:
    Baby L.J. is getting bigger.

    Alley:
    Thanks to your reading of the will, John takes care of L.J. now.

    Blake:
    I decided to abide to your wishes and I gave up the war with John. At least the war over L.J.

    London:
    That was all I wanted. I really want to see her. I need to return to Point Palace. My home is there with you.

    Blake:
    Let's just enjoy this. This miracle vacation. I wouldn't have it any other way.

    (Blake hugs London.)

    Blake:
    I knew deep down inside you were alive. I had a feeling.

    London:
    I love you.

    (Alley rolls her eyes at the scene.)

    Blake:
    I love you too. We'll never be apart. Never. Even if that means, holding on to you and never letting go.

    - - -
    (In her dorm room, Carrie stands up and waits for Juliana's response.)

    Carrie:
    You have a lot of gull calling me!

    Juliana:
    I know I do but I want you to hear me out. I thought that maybe it would be best if you and I could get to know each other better. We're family.

    Carrie:
    It's disgusting to even think about it.

    Juliana:
    But it's true. Please consider coming back to Lexington. It would be great to be a family. As messed up as it may be. Just consider it and get back to me.

    (Juliana hangs up with Carrie who seems dumbfounded and shocked.)

    Carrie:
    She's right. Maybe we can be a family.

    (At Sky's apartment, Ava walks in with a worried expression on her face.)

    Ava:
    You seemed so urgent on the phone. Is anything wrong?

    Sky:
    Yes and no.

    Ava:
    Whatever it is, I'm here now, so you can tell me anything.

    Sky:
    Just don't get mad at me when I tell you but you know your friend Nate?

    Ava:
    I know that you don't like each other.

    Sky:
    Well how much has he told you about himself?

    Ava:
    He's just a friend. It's not like he likes me or I like him. I'm with you baby.

    (Ava places her hand on Sky's waist.)

    Sky:
    That's good to know. You have to see the way he looks at you. He obviously has a crush on you. Except you might not want to get too close to him.

    Ava:
    Why? Are you staking your claim on me?

    (Ava retracts from Sky.)

    Sky:
    No. I've found out that, and I'm not making this up in anyway possible. Nate has an STD. I'm afraid that if you get close to him, he could affect you.

    - - -
    (Later that evening, Jenny sits alone in her cell. She kept reliving the events of the past days. Carlos could have killed Nick. It was the best thing for him. A guard comes by and knocks on her cell.)

    Guard:
    Wake up. You have a visitor.

    (Jenny is hoping that it's Carlos, but it's not, it's C.C. with a smirk on her face.)

    Jenny:
    What the hell are you doing here?

    C.C.:
    How could I pass up the opportunity to come down here and thank you.

    Jenny:
    You're being a smug little bitch. Just like always.

    C.C.:
    This is like research for me. The show has decided to give me a bit of a break and Melanie’s character is being sent to the slammer. It’ll make for great ratings, don’t you think jailbird?

    Jenny:
    Get bent bitch!

    C.C.:
    I want to also thank you for securing me a position in the warm bed next to your boyfriend.

    Jenny:
    Don't even think about it! If I find out that you're with Carlos, I'll kill you.

    C.C.:
    Just like you killed Nick. Let's face it, the bastard had it coming. I don't blame you but you're not going anywhere. You won't even have a trial.

    Jenny:
    You're lucky that these bars are keeping us separated. I want to wipe this grimy floor with your disgusting face.

    C.C.:
    Toodles dear. I'll make sure to tell you every filthy detail about how much better I am in bed than you are. Poor Carlos is going to need some consoling when you're gone. Have fun in rotting here!

    (C.C. exits with the guard.)

    Jenny:
    (screaming)
    You come back here! You bitch!

    Male Guard:
    (yelling back)
    Calm your ass down!

    Jenny:
    Sorry. I'm sorry.

    - - -
    (Back in Raleigh, Alexia and Tanisha are in front of Owen's closed hospital room.)

    Tanisha:
    Who would've known that we were going to get kicked out by a nurse?

    Alexia:
    There has to be more. Owen was right about to tell us who took him!

    Tanisha:
    Maybe we should just come back another time.

    Alexia:
    No. I'm not wasting time anymore. Those nurses are going to give me some information and if they don't like it, then they can go shove it.

    (Alexia charges to the front nurse's station. Tanisha follows.)

    Tanisha:
    Girl just calm down for a second. You can't be all hot headed. Let me handle it. We both know that I'm the better con artist.

    (Tanisha sees that a different nurse is manning the station.)

    Tanisha:
    Hi I was wondering if you can help me with something.

    (Tanisha makes eyes with Alexia who begins to look around the station. She finds something interesting as Tanisha continues to distract the nurse.)

    Alexia:
    Tanisha we need to get going.

    Tanisha:
    Thanks for your help.

    (Alexia and Tanisha begin to walk out of the hospital.)

    Tanisha:
    So did you find anything?

    Alexia:
    I glanced at the visitor sheet for Owen. I think I know who paid Ivory to take him!

    - - -
    (In the late hours of the night, Will is walking back to his dormitory from his night class. He pulls out his cell phone to call Mika.)

    Will:
    Hey I'm getting out of class so why don't we get together. Will you be around?

    Mika:
    Yeah you can say I'm around right now.

    (Mika is dressed in all black to blend in with the night. She is on top of a ten story building that is near Will. She has her head phones in and Tjin Tao's voice comes through.)

    Tjin Tao:
    Mika this is just like any other target. Take the shot and dispose of the body. You don't have a lot of time.

    Mika:
    I...I can't do this.

    (Mika looks into the scope to see Will lighting up a cigarette.)

    Tjin Tao:
    Your hands are shaking. Calm down and take the shot.

    Mika:
    I'm too close to the subject. I got too close. It was a mistake to do it but I'm too close to him!

    Tjin Tao:
    Forget about everything. Ease your mind and pull the trigger.

    (Mika closes her eyes while a tear falls from her cheek.)

    Tjin Tao:
    What are you waiting for? Take the shot Mika!

    (Mika pulls the trigger from her sniper riffle. The bullet strikes Will in the chest. He quickly falls down onto the ground of the alley way next to him as blood begins to soak out of him.)

    Next on Point Palace:
    A season finale you won't want to miss with new endings, new beginnings, and of course a cliffhanger ending!
  19. Matt P.
    Previously on Point Palace:

    - Blake and Alley booked a flight to France where they found London alive thanks to a French couple who nursed London back to life after she suffered from the Sleeping Beauty Syndrome and loss of memory. Plus she beat her bleeding disease. Alley is still weary to how it happened and informs John about it, who was getting upset that she was spending time with Blake.

    - Bryan returned to the school board and Dylan wasn’t happy to see him. Bryan tells them that he can be cleared of all charges since Nan was the one who did it, not him. Bryan also informs them that he has enough money to buy the school back.


    - Alexia and Tanisha sneak their way into the hospital where Owen is. Both girls become reunited with Owen but are kicked out before he can tell them who paid Ivory to put him there.

    - Detective Miltner arrests Jenny for confessing to Nick’s murder. Carlos begs her to take it back but she feels as if she’s protecting him, since he is the prime suspect. Later, C.C. pays Jenny a visit to taunt her that she’ll be closer to Carlos.


    - Carrie gets an important phone call from Juliana asking her to return to Lexington so that the two can become a family.

    - Sky informs Ava about Nate’s STD.


    - Will calls Mika to plan a date but along the way, Mika gets instructions from Tjin Tao to eliminate Will. Mika is hesitant since she admits to being close to the subject. From her periscope gun, Mika shoots Will.

    (Mika frantically runs to Will’s lifeless body and begins to cover him up so that no one else will see. Tears begin to pour out of her eyes and onto Will while kneeling down to hold him.)

    Mika:
    I’m sorry Will. Please forgive me.

    (From a distance, she hears faint footsteps and knew who it was. She gets up and faces Tjin Tao.)

    Mika:
    There I did what you wanted. I killed someone that I really felt something for. Are you happy? Are you happy that I have been turned into a lifeless killing machine?

    Tjin Tao:
    This had to be done Mika. We both know that. You’re wrong about the lifeless part, you have emotions…you’re showing them now.

    Mika:
    I want out. That’s what I’m showing. You’ve done so much for me and my family but there comes a time when-

    Tjin Tao:
    It’s not possible.

    (Mika pulls out a katana blade from her thin backpack. Mika points her blade at Tjin Tao who stays calm.)

    Tjin Tao:
    Mika, the student never surpasses their master!

    Mika:
    We’ll see about that.

    (Tjin Tao pushes her arm down to the ground and pushes her back. She regains her composure and stands back up. In a quick motion, Mika slides her sword into stomach.)

    Mika:
    You win.

    Tjin Tao: (scared)
    Mika! NO!

    (Mika falls to the ground, next to Will’s body. Tjin Tao shakes his head until he pulls out his phone to make a call.)

    Tjin Tao:
    Yes they’re both dead. I repeat Will Pazner and Mika Tomukuzai are dead. I will dispose of the body.

    (Tjin Tao hangs up and proceeds to handle Mika’s body. Until she gets back up alive.)

    Tjin Tao:
    What the - ?

    Mika:
    I wanted out! This is the only way! You just told them that I was dead so I’m dead to them.

    (Mika takes her katana and goes after him. She tries slicing him but Tjin Tao blocks her every move. He goes to kick her until she grabs his leg and throws him against the wall. He becomes aggressive with her and tries punching her. Mika grabs him by the neck and with her sword she stabs Tjin Tao in the neck. He gags blood until keeling over. She then throws his heavy body into the garbage dumpster next to him.)

    Will:
    Do you think you’re being watched?

    (Will rips off his fake stained bullet proof vest.)

    Mika:
    No. They think we’re dead so I’m officially out of the Yakuza.

    (Mika smiles and kisses Will.)

    (John sits at The Palace Café, sipping on his purchased drink. He looks at the phone thinking that he should call Alley but shakes his head at the thought. He gets a call and quickly answers it before looking at the caller ID.)

    John:
    Hello?

    Guy:
    Hey bro.

    (Guy talks with John while walking the streets at his local college in Ohio.)

    John:
    Guy it’s been a while since we last spoke.

    Guy:
    Yeah what can I say, I’ve been busy.

    John:
    How’s mom and dad?

    Guy:
    They’re good. How are you doing?

    John:
    The usual I guess. Found out that my dead ex-girlfriend is alive and that my current girlfriend is being her bitchy ole’ self.

    Guy:
    You lead such the interesting life. Dude London’s alive?

    John:
    Yeah who knew.

    Guy:
    That’s great news. I actually wanted to give you a heads up on something.

    John:
    What’s that?

    Guy:
    You’re sort of, kind of going to be getting a visitor.

    John:
    A visitor? Is mom or dad coming? Why? What did you tell them?

    Guy:
    I didn’t tell them anything. It’s not them. It’s our big sis Marissa. She wants to see you.

    John:
    Great. That’s just great. More added stress in my life. One woman at a time!

    (John hangs up with Guy and shakes his head in frustration.)

    (Bryan settles his way into Dylan’s office when he isn’t there. He roots through his files until he finds the one that he needs, a form signed with Blake’s signature. Bryan quietly moves into a more private area where he observes the signature.)

    Bryan:
    Just one fine work of a pen and the school belongs to me.

    (Bryan proceeds to copy the signature to a letter that Bryan had typed up claiming that the school will belong to him.)

    Dylan:
    What are you doing?

    Bryan: (jumpy)
    Oh Dylan. You scared me.

    Dylan:
    Great to know. You didn’t answer my question.

    Bryan:
    I’m just going over a few files that’s all.

    Dylan:
    Really? I hope you don’t mind me looking at these files.

    Bryan:
    Actually yes I do mind. I mind very much. Someone like yourself should value some sort of means of privacy.

    Dylan:
    Then that means that you’re up to no good. Which isn’t an assumption when it comes to a slimy toad like yourself.

    Bryan:
    Maybe you should become a detective and let the school board’s politics be handled by the big boys.

    (Byran playfully smacks Dylan in the face. Dylan takes him by his collar and forcefully pushes him against the wall.)

    Dylan:
    You listen to me and you listen good. There’s no way in hell that myself or those board members are tricked by your snake ways. Just wait until Blake gets back because he didn’t forget how you tried framing him. Do I make myself clear?

    (Bryan throws Dylan’s hands off of him.)

    Bryan:
    You have quite the temper. Maybe next time you could learn to assault me better because your threats are meaningless.

    (During her visiting hour, Carlos walks in with Agatha who looks distraught after seeing Jenny. Jenny smiles at her for reassurance. Jenny picks up the phone on her end as does Carlos.)

    Carlos:
    Somebody wanted to see you.

    Jenny:
    I’m glad she’s here.

    (Carlos hands Agatha the phone to speak to Jenny.)

    Agatha:
    Oh Jenny. I can’t believe you’re in here. Did you really kill him?

    Jenny:
    I don’t know…I mean, yes, yes I did kill him.

    (Carlos shakes her head.)

    Agatha:
    Nick changed so much. After hearing what had happened, I told him off until he fired me.

    (Jenny’s eyes connects with Carlos to make sure he’s hearing the same thing.)

    Jenny: (bating her)
    Seriously? You talked to him again?

    Agatha:
    I left him a nasty message but calling him wasn’t enough. I wanted him to know how I felt!

    Carlos:
    Did you go back to his office?

    Agatha:
    I did.

    Carlos:
    Hey if you don’t mind I need to speak to Jenny in private real quick.

    Agatha:
    Of course.
    (to Jenny)
    For some reason I can’t see a caring soul like you doing something like this. But if you did, then the more power to ya.

    (Agatha goes off to the side to give the two privacy.)

    Carlos:
    Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

    Jenny:
    Yeah she was acting so strange. You don’t think she could be a suspect?

    Carlos:
    Actually I do. It’s very possible that she could’ve done it. Because I know it couldn’t be you and I just wish you would stop protecting me because I’ll find out if I did it or not. I couldn’t have been that drunk.

    - - -
    (On the other end of the world, Blake walks around the streets of Paris with London. He can’t keep back the constant smile on her face.)

    Blake:
    What else do you want to know?

    London:
    Tell me more about L.J.

    Blake:
    She’s growing up so fast. Everyone comments on how much she looks like her mother.

    London: (sarcastic)
    Yeah since I’ve been in her life for so long.

    Blake:
    Let’s not worry about that. You’re here and we’re here.

    London:
    What about my family?

    Blake:
    They don’t know yet but they were truly devastated.

    London:
    I’ll fix that. What about the school? How’s that been?

    Blake:
    It’s been quiet, which is surprising.

    London:
    Maybe when I return I’ll become more hands on. From a distance, it was always something I wanted to do.

    Blake: (weary)
    Really? I never got that feeling.

    London:
    Then let’s not worry about that.

    (Blake stops and looks at her. Under the Eiffel Tower, he leans in and passionately kisses London.)

    (In Raleigh, Alexia pulls up to a cozy looking home. Both girls get out of the car.)

    Tanisha:
    This is where you live I take it?

    Alexia:
    Yeah but that’s not why I’m making this a homecoming.

    (Alexia and Tanisha proceed to the door. Instead of knocking on it, Alexia opens the door to find Owen sitting on the couch. Christina comes down the steps to give a hug to Alexia.)

    Christina:
    I’m so happy you’re here.
    (to Tanisha)
    And you must be?

    Tanisha:
    Tanisha Jones. Owen’s girlfriend.

    Christina:
    Yes I’ve heard a lot about you.

    Tanisha:
    Nice to meet you too.

    Alexia:
    It was you. You were the one who paid Ivory to take Owen back to Raleigh.

    Christina:
    Yes it was me. Why are you so surprised?

    (Owen stands up and takes Tanisha by the hand.)

    Owen:
    Let’s give them some time.

    Tanisha:
    Of course.

    (Both exit into the kitchen.)

    Alexia: (upset)
    Maybe because for the last couple of weeks we thought that Owen was kidnapped and we’ve been on a wild goose chase to find him. The whole time…he was here because of you.

    Christina:
    Well how do you think I felt when I found out that Owen was in the hospital? Or what about the explosion that made him deaf? I found out those things from the news so I decided to teach you a lesson.

    Alexia: (shocked)
    What? What kind of lesson could you possibly be talking about?

    Christina:
    You never tell me anything so I was one step ahead of you. It hurts to not know what’s going on with your family, doesn’t it?

    Alexia:
    Yes. It does.

    Christina:
    Plus you lied to me. Maybe if you would’ve told me the truth, then I would’ve told you what I had done.

    Alexia:
    Mom, I’m sorry for lying. I really do mean that. I have been so worried about you and how Owen’s disappearance would have affected your health.

    Christina:
    And the good news is that I’m going through remission with my cancer. I appreciate you caring about me.

    (Alexia hugs her mother.)

    Alexia: (tearing up)
    That means the world to me to hear you say that.

    Christina:
    Look I know your semester is winding down and I really want to be family. You can help me take care of your brother, who doesn’t need that much help, but I always need you here.

    (Tanisha walks back into the living room.)

    Tanisha:
    You should do it. Point Palace will always be there but your family should come first.

    Owen:
    I miss you sis.

    Alexia:
    Yeah I kind of do think that I want to come home.

    Owen: (to Tanisha)
    What about us?

    Tanisha:
    I don’t know if I can settle for a long distance relationship.

    Alexia:
    Come on, you could work it out.

    Owen:
    Yeah praise the moment.

    Tanisha:
    I guess that I can stay for a few more days.
    (to Christina)
    If that’s okay with you.

    Christina:
    Of course it is.

    Alexia:
    Now this is how I wanted to picture my family. All together as one.

    (Tanisha kisses Owen on the cheek and Alexia hugs Christina again, while smiling at what felt like a picture perfect moment.)

    (After coming back to his room from a hard day in the school board, Dylan smiles to find Carrie making him dinner.)

    Dylan:
    Glad to see you’re up and about.

    Carrie:
    Couldn’t think I was young forever.

    Dylan:
    You were too much to handle.

    Carrie:
    I could imagine. Look I got a call from Juliana the other day and she said something that sort of stuck to me.

    Dylan: (sarcastic)
    What that she ordered a hit on me?

    Carrie:
    No. She asked if we maybe wanted to move to Lexington.

    Dylan:
    Are you kidding me? Why? What possible reason would we have to go back there for?

    Carrie:
    As much as I hate it, Juliana’s my mother. Maybe it would be nice if I could be her daughter.

    (Dylan shakes his head.)

    Dylan:
    The decision’s up to you and whatever you choose, I’ll support you.

    (Later that night, Will secretly walks the streets of Cody, with a disguise. He walks to the building where Mika had previously sniped him from. When he gets to the rooftop, he finds Mika looking over the edge.)

    Will: (joking)
    Don’t jump!

    Mika:
    Freefalling is a great escape.

    (Mika turns around to face him. The wind rustles through her now dyed hair.)

    Will:
    Why did you ask me up here?

    Mika:
    Because I wanted to thank you for everything.

    Will:
    I have a lot to thank you for too. You didn’t kill me and you got me over my first love.

    Mika:
    Glad to help but –

    Will:
    Are you breaking up with me?

    (Mika is silent.)

    Mika:
    Your disguise looks nice. Very distinguished and sexy.

    Will:
    That doesn’t answer my question.

    (Mika walks up to Will and strokes his face. The two lean in for a romantic kiss.)

    Mika:
    Goodbye Will.

    Will: (desperate)
    Mika wait! Please don’t leave me. Whatever it is that we can do to be together, I’ll do it. Don’t go. Not like this.

    Mika:
    I’m sorry Will. This is the only way.

    (Mika runs towards the end of the balcony and jumps off. Will runs to grab her but watches her fall. She blows him a kiss before disappearing into the darkness.)

    (The next day, Ava paces nervously around her dorm until Someone knocks on her door. She answers it to find Sky. Sky walks in and kisses her on a cheek.)

    Sky:
    Hey you.

    Ava:
    It’s nice to see you.

    Sky:
    Guess what? Tonight I was thinking that you and I could go check out this really hot lesbian club that my friend told me about.

    Ava:
    Interesting. Yeah I’m down.

    (Ava gets another knock on her door.)

    Sky:
    Let me get it.

    (Sky opens the door to find Nate but she tries slamming it in his face. He makes his way into Ava’s room.)

    Nate:
    Ava I need to talk to you.

    Sky:
    This should be interesting.

    Ava:
    Um…okay what’s up?

    Nate:
    You really need to find out what kind of a girl you’re going out with. She’s a bully!

    Sky:
    He’s just mad because you like what I have. Guess he can’t handle it what with his disease.

    Ava:
    Sky’s that uncalled for.

    Nate:
    The truth is, I do have something but I don’t like you for that reason.

    Ava:
    You like me?

    Sky:
    Wasn’t it obvious? It was practically poking out of his pants.

    Nate:
    Yes I do and I can only hope that you see how bad you really have it, girl or not, Sky isn’t worth it.

    Sky:
    You got some balls!

    Ava:
    Stop it both of you!

    Sky:
    You know what? Let’s end this right here and right now. Ava who do you want to be with? Do you want to be with me or do you want to be with Nate? The decision’s yours, even though I know who you’ll choose.

    (In the forensic lab at the Cody Prescient, Detective Miltner goes through more evidence that he found in Nick’s office. Officer Wendell passes by to talk to him.)

    Officer Wendell:
    Must be fun to play C.S.I.

    Detective Miltner:
    Yeah it is Alan.

    Officer Wendell:
    Thought the case was over. Didn’t someone confess?

    Detective Miltner:
    They did but it was purely a confession. Deep down inside, I think they are trying to protect someone.

    Officer Wendell:
    And if someone else confesses…

    Detective Miltner:
    Then there’s no case. Basically I have a fake confession, a killer still out there, and some piece of evidence which I hope will end it.

    Officer Wendell:
    Good luck. We’re heading off to drink if you’re interested.

    Detective Miltner:
    I’m waiting for something important. Have fun.

    (Officer Wendell exits. Another forensic expert walks in to the room.)

    Detective Miltner:
    Did you get what I needed?

    Forensic Expert:
    Of course. Took all traces of DNA that we could find, and came up with a few traces of red hair.

    Detective Miltner:
    The main suspect has red hair!

    Forensic Expert:
    Yes but does she wear a wig because it was prosthetic.

    (Detective Miltner begins to go deep in thought.)

    Detective Miltner:
    Fake red hair.

    Forensic Expert:
    With John Doe’s blood stains on them.

    (Detective Miltner stands up out of his chair and runs out in a hurry.)

    Detective Miltner:
    Get me a warrant for an arrest. I know who did it. I’m pretty damn sure I know who killed Nicholas Quarr!

    (Leaving Blake behind at the hotel room, Alley goes on her own quest to talk to London. She has problems trying to go to Fernec’s home until she hands the taxi driver an address. She pays the driver and knocks on Fernec’s door.)

    Alley:
    Hey Fernec, I was wondering may I speak to London?

    Fernec:
    Yes of course. She’s upstairs.

    Alley:
    It’s a little bit of a surprise so don’t tell her I’m here.

    Fernec:
    Of course.

    (Alley walks up the steps to London’s room. The door is partly open. Alley opens it to get her attention.)

    Alley:
    Listen we need to ta-

    (Alley is shocked to find a wig and chunks of fake skin on the dresser drawer. Alley looks at the culprit who was partly dressed as London and as themselves.)

    Alley: (shocked)
    Oh my god. It’s you!
    - - -

    Who will Ava choose: Sky or Nate?Will Carrie and Dylan leave for Lexington?
    Who killed Nick?
    Who's been impersonating London?

    Find out when Point Palace returns for its fifth season in early 2008
  20. Matt P.
    Previously on Point Palace:

    - Sky forces Ava to choose between her and Nate.
    - Carrie asks Dylan if they could relocate to Lexington
    - Alexia and Tanisha found out that Owen was kidnapped by their mother and Alexia decided to stay home but Tanisha wants a long distance relationship.
    - Agatha acts strange when she vists Jenny in jail, making Carlos think that she might be a suspect.
    - John is informed that his sister is coming to town.
    - Detective Miltner got a valuable piece of evidence and knows who killed Nick.
    - Alley went to confront London about her leaving only to find that someone has been impersonating her.

    - - -
    Alley walks into what was supposedly the rented bedroom belonging to London. Alley had to do a double take because she was in shock. Standing before her was Nan Sheridan, dressed up in parts as London.

    Alley:
    Well don’t you know how to make a lovely entrance.

    Nan:
    Alley it’s always so nice to see a bitch like you. Please note the sarcasm in my voice.

    Alley:
    This makes sense. In some sick and twisted way, this was what I knew would happen all along. There’s no way that London could be alive. But you…you’re just full of endless possibilities.

    Nan:
    Really? How do you know that? How the hell are you so sure of everything?

    Alley:
    You’re still screwed up and what’s even better is that you’re dead. Everyone back at Point Palace thought you died.

    Nan:
    Everyone back at Point Palace, are stupid lowlifes. Just like yourself.

    Alley:
    After what you did you’re the one stupid enough to get caught. You’re even stupider for showing up alive.

    Nan:
    You’re the only one who knows that but I’m sure you’ll go and run that big mouth of yours. Just like you had to go and tell Blake that Will was the father of my baby. Since we’re dwelling on the past, Will did cheat on you and impregnated me right?

    Alley:
    And if we’re digging even further. I remember that I kicked your ass then.

    Nan:
    You’d like to think that. Why couldn’t you be a part of my explosion? It certainly caused a few sparks so to speak.

    Alley:
    Somehow fate has just brought me to you.

    Nan laughs at Alley’s comeback. Nan looks at herself in the mirror, away from Alley, smiling as she continues to peel the fake skin off of her face.

    Nan:
    It’s so real isn’t it? Money can buy such nice things. Like the life of your ex’s lover. It certainly fooled Blake.

    Alley:
    Well it didn’t fool me.

    Nan:
    You’re always coming to Blake’s defense. When will you two realize that you mean so much more to each other than you really let on. Seriously, you want to talk about fate? You two deadbeats deserve each other, always have and you always will. This is like freshmen year all over again.

    Alley:
    If that’s the case, then I’ll kick your ass again!

    Alley forcefully pulls Nan’s hair and begins to shake her back and forth. Nan turns around and slaps Alley across the face, not once, but twice with a backhand. Nan grabs onto Alley’s hair as the two begin to struggle. Alley throws Nan into a dresser drawer. Alley grabs onto Nan’s shirt and spins her around the room. When she let’s go, the shirt rips, and Nan falls into her “London” makeup. Nan pulls the “London” wig and whips Alley across the face with it. Alley shields her face before kicking Nan in her shin. When she goes to kick Nan again, Nan grabs onto her leg, and throws her into a dresser. Alley stands up and throws a few of the small makeup kits that were on a shelf. Nan retaliates by picking up a small wooden chair and hitting Alley in the back making her go down.

    While the action was unfolding upstairs, Fernec and Isabelle wait patiently downstairs.

    Isabelle:
    Qu’est-ce que c’est d’it?

    Fernec:
    Mes amis, London has a friend over.

    Isabelle:
    Oh la la. I guess it’s a reunion.

    Fernec:
    Oui.

    The couple continue to sit on their couch reading a medical journal. After hearing a loud crash from upstairs they both look at each other.

    Fernec:
    I’ll go see what’s going on.

    Back upstairs the girls roll across the bed, pulling each other’s hair. Alley grabs a pillow and whacks Nan in the head with it. She then tries smothering Nan with the pillow. Nan bites her hand and kicks her off of the bed but Alley grabs her hair to take her with down with her. When they both fall to the ground, Nan sits on top of Alley, strangling her.

    Nan:
    Why won’t you die?

    Alley gasps for air while Alley is on top of her, strangling her. Blindly, she looks for something to hit Nan with. She feels a wire from another dresser drawer. Alley tugs the wire and an electric alarm clock hits Nan in the head. The girls stop fighting, Alley coughs and Nan tries consoling her head. Just then, Fernec comes into the room.

    Fernec:
    What the fu-

    Alley:
    She did it!

    Alley tries attacking Nan again but Nan hides her true face from Fernec.

    Alley:
    Don’t worry the police and especially Blake will know about everything you did. I’ll make sure of it.
    (to Fernec)
    Sorry about your home.

    Alley exits. Still not getting a good look at Nan, Fernec begins to clean up.

    Fernec:
    Are you okay madame?

    Nan:
    (in London’s voice)
    Please…just leave me alone. I need some time to myself.

    Fernec exits. Nan laughs at what had just happened.

    Nan:
    Just wait Point Palace…the big bad bitch is back!


    Nan laughs in an evil way while looking at herself in the broken mirror. - - -

    Back at Point Palace University, Ava paces back and forth in her own room. Sky has her hands on her hips, waiting for an answer, and Nate was just as curious. Ava was speechless, until opening her mouth.

    Ava:
    (sighing)
    I don’t know. I can’t choose.

    Sky:
    What? The answer should be easy babe. You want me and only me!

    Nate:
    Maybe she doesn’t want to be bossed around anymore. In that case she would be better if she were with me.

    Sky:
    (to Nate)
    Maybe we were doing just fine until you barged in.

    Ava:
    Stop. Seriously just stop. When I say I don’t know I truly mean it. Maybe I don’t want to be a-

    Ava stops herself from what she was about to say.

    Sky:
    Be a what…a lesbian?

    Ava:
    That’s not what I was going to say.

    Sky:
    It sure sounded like it.

    Nate:
    Why don’t you give her room to speak Sky? It’s always what you want and what you feel that counts.

    Sky:
    Shut your mouth.
    (to Ava)
    Go on babe. Whatever you have to say I’m here for you.

    Ava looks away from Sky.

    Ava:
    I’ve been doing so much thinking lately and I don’t think that I can go on like this any longer. Sky I’m not a lesbian. I was just someone who was confused and I felt obligated to go out with you. Who wouldn’t want to? You helped me out with so much. You were the one who got me over James and you saved my life.

    Sky:
    Where is this all coming from? I don’t get it.

    Ava:
    I’m sorry Sky. I don’t want to be with you.

    Sky:
    (hurt)
    What? But…

    Nate:
    I think I should go.

    Ava:
    No stay.

    Sky:
    You’re seriously leaving me for him? A man? Someone who can’t treat you like I can. I know what you need and what you want. Do you think he can do that for you? Have fun worrying about what kind of herpes you might be infested with.

    Ava:
    I was going to tell Nate that I only like him as a friend. I’m not in love or in like with anyone.

    Nate:
    I understand.

    Sky:
    I don’t! I really did fall for you.

    Ava:
    Please…I’m sorry. I really am.

    Sky:
    Yeah.
    (looking at Nate)
    You will be.

    Sky exits Ava’s room, slamming the door behind her. The slam makes Ava shiver a bit. Nate looks at her.

    Nate:
    I-

    Ava:
    Look I just want to be alone. Please respect my decision.

    Nate takes her hand and rubs it. He smiles at her to show her that he agrees with her. Nate lets go and exits, leaving Ava to be alone.

    To get his mind off of Mika and to make it look like he’s truly dead, Will moves into a new apartment on a different side of campus. He begins to lodge into his new room. It was just what he needed, a change in scenery. Will was also dawning a somewhat new look, his hair was shorter, and he had died his hair burgundy red. Just in case a member from the Yakuza were looking for him but to them he was dead.

    Will
    Just what I need. A new change of scenery.

    Will opens the door of the lobby to go back outside for more stuff but instead runs into an attractive female. She smiles at him and he smiles at her.

    Will:
    Can I help you?

    Alicia:
    Sure you can get out of my way.

    Will:
    You’re Australian?

    Alicia:
    Yeah what gave it away mate? I should’ve thrown a boomerang at you.

    Will:
    You’re funny. My name is Will Pazner. And you are?

    From upstairs one of Will’s neighbors walk down the steps. Will begins to size him up.

    Jace:
    I’m Jace Broyeau. Nice to meet you Will.

    Will:
    I take it you’re a neighbor?

    Jace:
    Yeah we are but I won’t be asking for sugar anytime soon.

    Jace makes his way towards Alicia and begins to hold her in his arms.

    Jace:
    I get that from this one.

    Alicia:
    I’m his girlfriend. Alicia Amberson. And we don't live together so don't get that thought in your head.

    Jace:
    Not yet at least.

    Will:
    (to Alicia)
    What part of Australia are you from?

    Alicia:
    Melbourne.

    Jace:
    (to Will)
    Do you need any help moving in?

    Will:
    No I think I’ll be just fine. It was nice meeting you and I’m sure we’ll be hanging out soon.

    Jace:
    Yeah we’re going to turn this into a huge party house.

    Alicia:
    (sarcastic)
    Just look out for Jace when he drinks, he can become a wild one.

    Jace snickers at his girlfriend’s comment.

    Will:
    That’s my kind of drinking buddy.

    Jace motions for Alicia to follow him upstairs. She does. Will watches them walking away, hoping for Alicia to look back at him. Will laughs it off and continues to unpack in his apartment.

    Will:
    Boyfriends mean nothing to me.

    Will begins to laugh in an evil way. He turns around and runs into Lenvy.

    John walks back to his room from an early class. He looks at the mail that he retrieved from his mail box. Nothing really seemed to interest him. John pulls out his keys to open his door. Until he notices that the door was open.

    John:
    What the hell?

    John slowly opens the door to investigate the scene. His room was just the way he left it. Maybe he forgot to lock his door he thinks to himself.

    John:
    I must be losing my mind.

    Before sitting down on his couch to relax, John is startled by a girl walking around in a towel from his bathroom.

    John:
    Oh my god! Marissa?

    Marissa:
    John you’re back!

    John:
    What are you doing here? Are you using my shower?

    Marissa:
    Yeah, I hope you don’t mind. I got in and needed to take a hot one. But I think I might’ve used up all of the warm water. Sorry.

    John:
    How did you get into my place? I thought that I locked it.

    Marissa:
    You did but you know me. I’m able to pick any lock.

    John:
    You’re lucky that you’re my sister. That’s called breaking and entering.

    Marissa:
    We’re family. Besides I thought that you knew I was on my way. I told Guy to inform you.

    John:
    He did inform me. He just didn’t tell me when.

    Marissa:
    You’re okay with me staying here for a few days?

    John:
    Yeah sure. It’s just going to be a packed room. What with my girlfriend and L.J.

    Marissa:
    Oh yeah I forgot all about that. I’m an aunt. Where is she?

    John:
    She’s with my sitter who helps me when I’m in classes.

    John gets a knock on his door.

    John:
    That should be her right now.

    Marissa:
    Cool, let me get it.

    Marissa answers the door. The sitter is surprised to see a woman in a towel. Marissa takes baby L.J. from her.

    Marissa:
    (to the sitter)
    Don’t worry we won’t be needing your services anymore. You’ll get paid as soon as possible. Thanks.

    Marissa shuts the door with her other hand and smiles back at John who is dumbfounded.

    Marissa:
    (looking at L.J.)
    She’s beautiful. It’s because she’s a Snaldry.

    John:
    I- You- But-

    Marissa:
    Hey you're big sis is here to help. Instead of staying a few days, I think it will be best if I stay for a few weeks. You’re going to need help raising this little girl. We’ll be one happy family. I’m sure your girlfriend will understand that too. Can’t wait to meet her.

    At The Palace Café, Dylan and Carrie go up to the counter to order drinks. They are happy to see Ginny who looks like she’s been having a long day.

    Ginny:
    What can I get you two?

    Dylan:
    Just a small coffee for me.

    Carrie:
    Same. You look like you need a break.

    Ginny:
    Oh I do. We’re short staffed and they’re thinking about bumping me up to manager.

    Dylan:
    You truly deserve it.

    Ginny:
    Thanks guys so tell your friends if you know anyone who needs a job. It’s fun and it pays okay. Okay?

    Dylan:
    Will do.

    Ginny hands them their drinks. The two find a table.

    Carrie:
    Maybe I should start working here. I feel like I have way too much time on my hands.

    Dylan:
    I thought you were worried about leaving town.

    Carrie:
    Do you really want to follow me to Lexington? Deal with Juliana and Victor?

    Dylan:
    Honestly, after everything that happened. No…not really.

    Carrie:
    I kind of need a break from them too. I’ll call Juliana later and break the news to her. Now I think I’m going to apply for that job.

    Dylan and Carrie stand up. Dylan winces in pain after he feels a shooting pain near his stomach.

    Carrie:
    Are you okay?

    Dylan winces again. He places his hands near his stomach.

    Dylan:
    I guess. I just felt like my stomach was hurting. I’m sure it was nothing.

    Bryan gets a phone call from Nan. He begins to talk to her while taking the glass elevator to The River Teal.

    Bryan:
    All I have to do is convince Lanoi and Benjamin to accept my offer then the school’s mine.

    Nan:
    Good luck. Just remember that I’m dead but that can all change.

    Bryan:
    (joking)
    Believe me, I’m putting all of the blame on you.

    Nan:
    I'll come back and kill you myself if you do. See you soon.

    Bryan hangs up with Nan and makes his way to the table. He puts the fakest smile on his face that he could.

    Bryan:
    Lanoi, Benjamin, it’s so nice to see you. Thank you for coming.

    Lanoi:
    There are still a few loose ends that we need to tie with up with you Bryan.

    Benjamin:
    Like what happened with the explosion.

    Bryan:
    That was just a misunderstanding. I had no idea that Nan was going to do what she did. Besides she’s long gone and I felt threatened. I felt like no one was on my side so that’s why I wanted to take a break from this place.

    Lanoi:
    You’re saying that you didn’t try framing Blake?

    Bryan:
    Am I really capable of such a thing?

    Lanoi:
    Yes.

    Bryan:
    No. The answer is no. We all know that Hammerton wanted a lie to get me out. It’s politics and he fights dirty.

    Benjamin:
    We were also give wind of the fact that you were in his office recently. From Mister Colby.

    Bryan:
    Again another Hammerton pusher. Dylan threatened me. I’m sure he left that part out though.

    Benjamin:
    We weren’t aware of that. Please Bryan just state your business.

    Bryan throws his check in the amount of ten million dollars out on the table.

    Bryan:
    This is for you two. You can split it however you like. All you have to do is have me replace Hammerton. He’s been away for so long that I don’t think he cares about the school anymore. Unlike me. This is a very legitimate and very legal way of doing things. Hell I’d call it professional.

    Benjamin and Lanoi look at each other.

    Bryan:
    The choice is yours.

    In France, Blake gets ready for a romantic evening with London. While he gets ready in his hotel room, he’s on his cell phone talking to Alexia.

    Blake:
    I know I’ll miss you too. I hope that you, Owen, and you’re family are okay. Yeah. It’s a miracle that she’s alive. Stop in and say hi at anytime. You’re the best at what you do, I’m sure you’ll get hired for some sort of party. Take care.

    Blake puts his phone in his pocket and begins to leave. He opens the door to find Alley with a stoic look on her face.

    Blake:
    Hey what’s wrong?

    Alley:
    I think you need to sit down for this.

    Blake:
    Actually I can’t I’m getting ready to see London. This time I’m going to convince her to come home.

    Alley:
    That’s what I need to talk to you about.

    Blake:
    (confused)
    What?

    Alley:
    I saw London earlier.

    Blake:
    Yeah?

    For a moment Alley could see how much in love he still was with the idea of London being alive.

    Alley:
    You look nice Blake.

    Blake:
    I know when you’re stalling. Just spit it out. What’s wrong with London?

    Late at night in Carlos’s room. Carlos gets ready to sleep yet again by himself. Before he goes to bed he makes a phone call to Jenny. Knowing full well that she wasn't allowed calls, he left a message for her that he knew she would receive.

    Carlos:
    Hey chica. I miss you and just wanted to say that I love you. Sleep well okay? Bye.

    Carlos hangs up the phone and takes off his shirt before slipping into bed. He then gets a knock at his door. He answers it but is not happy when he finds C.C. before him dressed in a white trench coat.

    Carlos:
    What are you doing here?

    C.C.:
    I figured you’d be lonely. Do you maybe want to watch a movie or something? We could order a sexy thriller that I starred in.

    Carlos:
    You’re ridiculous. Get out of here.

    C.C.:
    No! I want you to admit that you want me.

    Carlos:
    I’m admitting nothing to you. My heart is with one girl and because of certain circumstances I can’t be with her. Now go before I call the cops.

    Carlos turns around to slam the door in her face. She quietly opens it and lets herself in his room. He doesn’t hear her but punches him in the back of the head. Carlos falls down. C.C. begins to drag him to his bedroom.

    C.C.:
    Fine have it your way. We’ll do things kinky.

    Carlos wakes up a few minutes later and finds himself tied to his bed. He then sees C.C. dressed in a shiny black dominatrix outfit.

    Carlos:
    Let me go!

    C.C.:
    Not until you give me what I want.

    With her whip in hand she slowly inches her way towards his crotch.

    C.C.:
    Looks like someone’s waking up.

    Carlos:
    You’re so sick!

    C.C.:
    Sick in love.

    C.C. straddles Carlos and begins to kiss him. There really wasn’t much he couldn’t do to avoid her. All of a sudden the door is busted into and Jenny pushes C.C. off of Carlos.

    Jenny:
    Get your slutty hands off of my boyfriend you murderer!

    Episode 103: Release Her

    By Matt P.,

    - - -
    Carlos was both happy and confused to see Jenny come to his rescue. Jenny was upset with what was going on in front of her. C.C. gets off of Carlos to face her.

    C.C.:
    What did you say?

    Jenny:
    You heard me. Get your slutty, whorish paws off of my man or I will personally see to it that I throw you face first through that window. The law’s on my side bitch!

    C.C. takes her whip and tries hitting her with it. Jenny grabs it and throws it across the room.

    C.C.:
    What are you doing here anyway?

    Carlos:
    Will someone please untie me?

    Jenny:
    Why don’t I let Detective Miltner explain that.

    Jenny opens the door to let Detective Miltner into the room. He shoots Carlos a weird look. He then looks at C.C. dressed in her outfit.

    Det. Miltner:
    I’d suggest you put some clothes on.
    (clearing his throat)
    Both of you.

    C.C.:
    Why? Are you going to arrest me for playing dress up?

    Det. Miltner:
    No. I’m arresting you for the murder of Doctor Nicholas Quarr.

    Carlos:
    (shocked)
    You! You were the one who did it.

    C.C. didn’t know what to think. She just stood there, slowly shaking her head.

    Jenny:
    Go ahead C.C. Why don’t you let us all know why you resorted to cold hearted murder. This is why I’m released. So maybe I should be thanking you.

    C.C.:
    You all are the crazy ones. You have no proof.

    Carlos:
    Hello? Can someone please untie me so that I can get dressed?

    Jenny unties Carlos and hugs him. He quickly begins to dress himself while waiting for C.C.’s response.

    Det. Miltner:
    Actually we do Miss Chastity. There was red hair found at the scene of the crime. The hair had traces of Nick’s blood on it.

    C.C.:
    I don’t mean to tell you how to play CSI but I’m a brunette.
    (pointing to Jenny)
    The red head’s over there.

    Det. Miltner:
    The hair was prosthetic. It hit me after Jenny’s long testimony about the, situation so to speak, I was able to see the video you made with Carlos. In that video you pretended to be Jenny with a red wig that was an exact match to the evidence that we found.

    Carlos:
    The tape that she practically raped me on. That’s a crime in itself!

    C.C.:
    If you want to watch a porno detective I suggest going to a dirty movie theater. Unless you’re that perverted that you want a live show. Carlos and I were having an interesting romp before you all broke in.

    Jenny goes after C.C. but is stopped by Carlos. Detective Miltner handcuffs C.C. who begins to squirm.

    C.C.:
    Didn’t think you were that kinky detective!

    Jenny:
    You’re pathetic.

    C.C.:
    No you are! I was the only one who did what everyone else wanted to do but no one else could.

    Det. Miltner:
    Okay. Let’s go.

    C.C.:
    Let me speak.

    Detective Miltner looks at Jenny and Carlos who motions for her to stay.

    C.C.:
    I couldn’t take anymore. Nick had raped Jenny and he threatened me. So I went to his office…

    A flashback begins of C.C. going to Nick’s office during the wee hours of the night as she recalls the story.

    C.C.:
    (continuing)
    I saw him doing work by himself. He noticed me, he was friendly, but that wasn’t what I wanted to be with him. Without thinking I strangled him but he broke free. Then I bashed him, I just kept hitting him over the head, with the phone. He was trying to say Charissa but he couldn’t because he was dead.

    Det. Miltner:
    I’ll take that as a confession.

    C.C.:
    There’s more though. He knew a secret of mine. Not everything was about them. He knew about my cocaine addiction and threatened to expose me so that’s the main reason why I killed him. He was so close to betraying me. I only tried helping you Carlos. I knew how much you hated him. With Jenny in jail, we could’ve been together, forever.

    Carlos:
    I don’t know who I loathe more, you or Nick. Take her away.

    C.C.:
    (screaming)
    NO! PLEASE DON’T! I’M A HERO DAMNIT! ME!

    Jenny:
    Wait!

    Detective Miltner stops.

    Jenny:
    (to C.C.)
    I want you to know something…

    Jenny spits in C.C.’s face.

    Jenny:
    I hope you rot in your cell!

    C.C.:
    Did you see that? She just assaulted me! Aren’t you going to do something?

    Det. Miltner:
    I didn’t see anything.

    C.C.:
    THAT’S BULL! YOU BITCH, YOU STUPID BITCH!

    After C.C.’s screaming pleads fade into the police car. Jenny and Carlos watch as they haul C.C. off to jail. From the back of the police car, she mouths “I love you” to Carlos who could only look away in shame.

    The next morning Ava collects her books for a class and gathers her things to leave. She looks at herself in the mirror and smiles. Even though the smile felt forced, she convinced herself that she’s still a good person. Ava opens the door and finds Nate about to knock on it.

    Nate:
    Good timing.

    Ava:
    Yeah I guess.

    Nate:
    I grabbed you a Mocha Latte from the café.

    Ava:
    You shouldn’t have.

    Ava shuts her door to leave. Ava reluctantly grabs the drink and begins to sip on it. She begins to walk in a fast pace to class and Nate follows.

    Ava:
    Is this your idea of leaving me alone?

    Nate:
    Look I feel bad about what I did. It wasn’t my intention to come between you and Sky. I don’t know what you two had but a blind person could see that the girl was controlling. Forget about controlling, she was just down right mean.

    Ava:
    I had no idea how you felt about me. Me falling for Sky was bound to happen. I had my heart broken so of course I was looking for someone else to go after. Hell it could’ve been you.

    Nate:
    Look I didn’t come to judge you or to confess how I feel about you, I just wanted to apologize.

    Ava:
    You have nothing to be sorry about. I’m glad that I came to the conclusion that I was forcing myself to be something that I wasn’t.

    Nate:
    Okay.

    Ava:
    We started out as friends. Let’s just continue with that.

    Nate:
    But I don’t know if I want a friendship with you.

    Ava:
    No confessions. Remember what you said, you aren’t here to tell me how you feel.

    Nate:
    I'm not confessing anything.

    Ava:
    Well I’m just looking to be friends. When I’m ready to go back into a relationship, I’ll let you know.

    Nate:
    Fine.

    Nate stops following her out of frustration. Ava notices it and turns around to face him.

    Ava:
    Thank you though.

    Nate:
    For what?

    Ava:
    For the coffee. It was a nice, friendly gesture.

    Nate smiles at her and Ava smiles back.

    A new girl walks into her new room at Point Palace. She looks around and is happy with what she has chosen. Marli Calloway makes her way to her computer screen.

    Marli:
    Let’s see what I’ve been missing back home.
    (reading)
    Oh my god. He’s been set free. How the hell could a jury set a murderer free?

    Marli begins to have a flashback to when she was driving to a club in Reno, Nevada. She finds the club's parking lot but when she walks to the door she hears something from a far.

    Marli:
    Hello?

    Marli shrugs it off as nothing until she hears a man screaming. Marli continues to walk away even faster. The screaming continues. Marli stops to investigate.

    Marli:
    Anyone there?

    She stops when she sees in another car; three men holding a gun up to another guy behind a truck. The guys were younger, close to her age, but were dressed up in normal college kid clothing. The guy on the other end of the gun had his hands in the air. Marli hides behind a car, trying to call for help. Her fingers were shaking too much.

    Marli:
    (praying in a whisper)
    Please…oh please don’t hurt him.

    A gunshot goes off which scares Marli and makes her scream. Her scream makes the shooters aware that someone was watching them. They begin to look for witnesses. Until Marli’s eyes meet with the main shooter.

    The flashback ends. Marli gets a call on her cell phone, which startles her. She picks it up.

    Marli:
    Hi. I know that your number is blocked. Yeah I’m fine. I’ve settled into a small quaint little school.
    (snickering)
    I’m safe because I’m pretty sure that no one will know who I am. This school seems too quiet.

    In John’s room, John powers on his MAC computer. He starts to review some photos that he was planning on adding to his portfolio.

    John:
    (talking to himself)
    This one definitely will be added to the bunch.

    Behind him, Marissa looks over his shoulder with a glass of red wine in her hand.

    Marissa:
    Oooh that one looks really cool. The way you blended the shadows work for this picture.

    John is startled by Marissa.

    John:
    You scared the crap out of me. I thought you were putting L.J. to bed.

    Marissa:
    I did and I wanted to treat myself to a little snack. I hope you don’t mind me raiding through your wine collection.
    (taking a sip of her Merlot)
    You are a true Snaldry.

    John:
    Why is that? Because I have alcohol?

    Marissa:
    That and because we have class. In speaking of class, how are you balancing everything?

    John:
    Fine I guess. The hardest part is having a relationship.

    Marissa:
    Oh that’s right you do have a girlfriend. Where is she? Why hasn’t she helped out with L.J.? Heck, I haven’t even heard her call.

    John:
    Well mom, she is out of the country. Besides we’re not on the best terms right now.

    John pulls up the first picture he ever took of Alley. It was the first time they met.

    John:
    This is her.

    Marissa:
    She’s pretty.

    John:
    Yeah but we’re just going through some stuff. Some of it has to do with my career and some of it has to do deal with other people.

    Marissa:
    Hopefully everything works out for the best. Don’t worry about the career, I’m working on looking for jobs for you. You’re talented and I have connections. Also, you know I have tons of girls who would just love to go out with you. That is if doesn’t work out with this one.

    John:
    Thanks.

    John hears L.J. crying from the other room.

    John:
    Oh I guess someone’s awake. I’ll go get her. You’ve done enough.

    Marissa looks at the picture of Alley smiling back at her from the screen. Marissa was thinking of every negative aspect she could pin point about her. Bad skin, horrible teeth, ugly hair.

    Marissa:
    (talking to the screen)
    I don’t even know you and already I loathe you.

    Marissa deletes the picture.

    Late afternoon in France, Fernec and Isabelle open their door to a very angry Blake. Behind him was Alley and behind her were two French police officers.

    Fernec:
    What’s going on? Qu'est-ce que c'est d'it?

    Blake:
    Where is she? Where’s Nan?

    Isabelle:
    Who’s Nan?

    Blake:
    London or whomever she’s been scamming you all as.

    Fernec:
    Upstairs. Seriously why are the police here.
    (to the police)
    Monsieur, nous parlons dans private. Oui?

    Blake shoots off for the staircase. Alley walks in to mediate but she can only talk to Isabelle since Fernec was talking to a police officer in French.

    Alley:
    A very bad person has been impersonating London.

    Isabelle is shocked. Upstairs, Nan heard all of the commotion. Her bags were already packed. Just in case something was to go wrong, which of course had happened, she was prepared.

    Blake:
    (screaming)
    You in here you little bitch? I know you are!

    Blake violently knocks on the door.

    Blake:
    Give it up. On the count of three I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll break this door down. One…Two…Three!

    Blake busts into the room.

    Back in Point Palace, Will’s door is wide open as he chats with Lenvy. She walks closer to him. He smiles at her.

    Lenvy:
    How’ve you been?

    Will:
    Let’s see. Your dear friend put a hit out on me with the girl I fell for. The same girl who got me over you.

    Lenvy:
    You’re not completely over me though.

    Will:
    I never will be.

    Lenvy:
    So she wasn’t the one. There are other fish in the sea.

    Alicia notices Will talking to himself.

    Alicia:
    Will?

    Will is embarrassed when he comes to.

    Will:
    I was rehearsing something for a play.

    Alicia:
    Oh so you’re a theater major?

    Will:
    Yeah. Something like that. What can I do for you?

    Alicia:
    I was bored and thought I’d say hello.

    Will:
    Bored? Isn’t Jace keeping you busy?

    Alicia:
    Jace is in the shower.

    Jace pops up behind her wrapped up in a towel that displayed his toned midriff.

    Jace:
    Actually I’m done.
    (to Will)
    What’s going on here?

    Will:
    Nothing. Just chilling.

    Alicia:
    I was actually trying to wrangle up a three way.

    Jace:
    Well I’m up for it if Will is.

    Will:
    Um…what?

    Jace begins to remove his towel before laughing.

    Jace:
    She does that to all of the neighbors.

    Will:
    Wow you two had me going there.

    Alicia:
    Don’t look too much into it.

    Jace:
    We came to tell you about a party that’s going on tomorrow night. At least that’s why I think Alicia was here to tell you. The whole place is going to be banging.

    Will:
    I’ll be there. Thanks for getting my hopes up you two.

    Will watches as Jace and Alicia leave.

    Will:
    (thinking to himself)
    If she turns around she likes me.

    Alicia turns around and winks at him. He shuts his door and laughs. Meanwhile, Jace pulls Alicia aside to confront her.

    Jace:
    What the hell was that?

    Alicia:
    Am I not allowed to have fun or be friendly? He seems like a cool guy.

    Jace grabs her by her hips and pushes her into the wall of the common area.

    Jace:
    I don’t ever want to see you flirting with another guy like that again! You know what it does to me.

    Alicia shakes her head to agree. Jace begins to forcefully kiss her.

    - - -
    Alley rushes into the bedroom to find it empty. All of Nan’s things, including herself, were gone. Blake begins to pace back and forth.

    Blake:
    Why did you let her get away?

    Alley:
    I wanted you to see it for yourself.

    Blake:
    Of course. This makes sense. Nan wouldn’t be dead and London wouldn't be alive.

    Alley:
    If it means anything I gave her a good fight. It was your idea to get the police involved and she deserves to go to jail, I just guess we were too late. I’m sorry.

    Blake:
    I am too. I feel even sorrier for Nan because when I find her, I don’t know what I’ll do.

    Outside of Fernec’s chateau, Nan had climbed her way out of the two story window, just in time to escape from Blake finding her. The fall was silent. She begins to walk away until she is stopped by a guard.

    Guard:
    Excusez-moi mademoiselle.

    Nan:
    (faking a southern accent)
    I’m sorry I don’t parlez the French. Is there something going on in there?

    Guard:
    Je ne’sais pas. Mon anglais est mal.

    Nan:
    I best be going. Y’all have a beautiful country.
    (butchering the French language)
    Au’revoir.

    Guard:
    Oui. Continuez.

    Nan:
    (muttering)
    Jackass!

    Nan begins to hurry along with her bags in hand. She smiles and laughs along the way before turning around to face the chateau.

    Nan:
    See you at home bitches!

    Nan blows a kiss goodbye. She disappears into the crowd of people.

    In Dylan’s room, Carrie continues to bounce up and down under the sheets of his bed. The two hadn’t been able to be intimate for a while so their sexual rendezvous was in much need. Dylan begins to moan in ecstasy before climaxing.

    Dylan:
    Oh that was amazing.

    Carrie:
    (kissing his neck)
    Tell me about it.

    Dylan:
    I don’t know about you but I need a shower.

    Carrie:
    Do you want me to join you?

    Dylan:
    You can if you want.

    Carrie:
    Actually I need to get going.

    Dylan:
    I see how it is. Hit and split.

    Carrie:
    (sarcastic)
    Yeah that’s exactly what it is.

    Dylan makes his way into the shower. He turns the water on and steps in.

    Carrie:
    I love you and I’ll call you later okay?

    Dylan:
    What?

    Carrie:
    (screaming)
    I love you.

    Dylan stops the shower and gets out. He begins to towel off. Until he freezes with horror after noticing something on his body.

    Dylan can’t stop but looking at himself in the mirror. It was as if time stood still. Carrie walked back into the bathroom and startles him. He quickly wraps himself up with the towel.

    Carrie:
    Did you hear what I said?

    Dylan:
    (nervous)
    No. I- I was too busy in the shower.

    Carrie:
    I said that I loved you. I haven’t said that to you in awhile but any guy who’s willing to nurse me back to life, is definitely someone I love.

    Dylan:
    Thanks. I love you too.

    Carrie:
    So maybe I could go for round two.

    Carrie seductively touches his neck and makes her way down to his toned midriff.

    Dylan:
    (more nervous)
    A…A second round?

    Carrie:
    Yeah. Maybe we can take that shower together. We could make it all hot and steamy. Just the two of us.

    Carrie tries untying his towel but Dylan catches her hand. He pulls her off of him.

    Carrie:
    What’s wrong with you? I was just trying to be playful.

    Dylan:
    I thought you had somewhere to be.

    Carrie:
    I was going to turn in my application to the café but I changed my mind on that one. So instead I’m going to class. My favorite class ever, lit arts. You know I could write a nice romantic poem about us.

    Dylan:
    Cool. You should go do that then.

    Carrie:
    (angry)
    What the hell is wrong with you?

    Dylan:
    (snapping back at her)
    I told you nothing!

    Carrie:
    Screw that romantic bull. How about I write about the truth? That my boyfriend can sometimes be a thoughtless jerk.

    Carrie exits his bathroom.

    Dylan:
    Damn it. Carrie wait!

    He hears his front door slam shut. When the coast was clear, Dylan picks up his cell phone and dials Rebecca Ralma.

    Dylan:
    Hi. It’s Dylan. I need your help…again.

    While walking into the Admissions wing of the school, Nate holds the door open for a girl who’s walking out.

    Marli:
    Thanks.

    Nate does a double take because the girl looks so familiar to him. His mind was back tracking, yep it was a girl he slept with, he thought to himself. This could go either one of two ways.

    Nate:
    Excuse me.

    Marli:
    Yeah?

    Nate:
    You look familiar. Were you by chance at Vegas for spring break ’06?

    Marli:
    Why yes I was. As a matter of fact you look kind of familiar too.

    Marli begins to think back.

    Marli:
    Oh my god. It’s you!

    Nate:
    Yeah so funny seeing you here. Mary Jane right?

    Marli:
    Actually it’s Marli.

    Nate:
    I could have sworn you told me your name was M.J. or something like that.

    Marli:
    I’m a huge fan of Spiderman and I thought that I’d probably never see you again so that was what I went with. Besides what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. My real name is Marli Calloway.

    Nate:
    What a pretty name. My name is-

    Marli:
    Nate Mavick. I remember you telling me that your last name resembled the gambling legend Maverick.

    Nate:
    And this all just came back to you?

    Marli:
    Yeah I guess it did. I was wondering how well do you know this school?

    Nate:
    Pretty well. I was recently appointed head of the Information Technology section. I’m kind of a big wig here...
    (whispering to her)
    I know the president of this place.

    Marli:
    That’s great. I ask because I’m new here and I want someone to show me around. Would you mind?

    Nate:
    Yes I’d love to. Why don’t we meet up tomorrow at around noonish at The Palace Café?

    Marli:
    Sounds good. I can’t wait.

    Marli smiles and exits. Nate pulls out his cell phone and calls Ava. He gets her voice mail to leave her a message.

    Nate:
    Hey it’s Nate. I was wondering if you wanted to get together sometime. Hopefully it’s sooner than later.

    Nate hangs up with Ava’s voicemail.

    Nate:
    Let’s just hope that you don’t turn into a lesbian again.

    - - -
    Ava sees Nate’s call but decided to ignore it. She is at The Library looking for a Psychology book. The librarian looks at Ava in a rude way when she shuts off her cell phone. Ava is a bit startled by Sky tapping her on the shoulder.

    Ava:
    You scared me.

    Sky:
    Sorry. Doing some research?

    Ava:
    Yeah. Another semester of Psychology is starting up again.

    Sky:
    Funny, that’s the class that practically ruined your life.

    Ava scowls at her while she begins to walk to away. Sky follows.

    Ava:
    That was my stupid decision.

    Sky:
    Partly because you got involved with a married man. Anything dealing with them is stupid. Basically anything with a dangling penis can show you what head they like to lead with.

    Ava:
    This is why you run into me? So that you can try to talk down men? Mostly Nate I assume.

    Sky:
    You and I are still friends right?

    Ava:
    Of course.

    Sky:
    Friends tell each other everything so if we’re friends then I just want you to know that I think you’re making a big mistake if you go out with him.

    Ava:
    Why because it’s not you?

    Sky:
    No.

    Ava:
    I’m sorry that I spoke my mind or the truth but it had to be said. I seriously thank you for everything you did but-

    Sky winds up and slaps Ava across the face.

    Ava:
    What the hell was that for?

    Sky:
    Because you’re obviously delusional. How can you go out with an STD ridden man whore?

    Ava slaps Sky back. Sky consoles her swollen cheek by smiling. She kind of liked it.

    Ava:
    You’re not my keeper anymore. If anything you’re too demanding! Not that it’s any of your business…friend, Nate and I are not going out anytime soon.

    Sky:
    You know, I kind of like a girl who’s rough. Note that I said girls because we both know that’s what you like. Deep down inside you’re gay! And you know it. You’re just being a stupid bitch.

    Alley knocks on John’s door in his room. He answers it with a forced smile on his face.

    Alley:
    Hey.

    John:
    Welcome home.

    Alley:
    Thanks. Can I come in?

    John:
    You know that you don’t even have to ask that. You’re always welcome here.

    Alley makes her way in. John shuts the door behind him.

    Alley:
    I wasn’t sure from our last couple of phone calls.

    John:
    Eh a lot of that had to deal with stress and knowing that you were with Blake. It’s kind of funny, we sort of fight then make up and fight again. It’s like a pattern for us.

    Alley:
    In speaking of patterns, London didn’t turn out to be at all what she seemed.

    John:
    (confused)
    What are you talking about?

    Alley:
    London was an impostor. It was Nan Sheridan. She paid money to have someone make her into London. The reason why is beyond me but it’s Nan so anything is possible.

    John:
    That bitch. I thought she was-

    Alley:
    Dead? Along with everyone else that was what she wanted people to think. She survived the explosion.

    John:
    Had I known that was going to happen then I wouldn’t have fought with you. You were obviously being a good friend to Blake and I respect that. Even I wouldn’t wish Nan Sheridan on him.

    Alley:
    Thanks. So what’s been making you stressful? Has L.J. been giving you problems?

    John:
    Actually…

    Marissa walks into John’s room from a jog. She doesn’t even notice Alley when she makes her way into the kitchen.

    Marissa:
    Hey Johnny Boy, let me tell you, it is such a nice day outside. I was thinking later maybe you can show me around. I’ve been meaning to tell you that my new job has relocated me to Colorado so I should be staying-
    (noticing Alley)
    Hi.

    Alley:
    Hi. Um who are you?

    John:
    This is my sister. Marissa. She’s going to be staying in my room for a couple of days.

    Marissa:
    Actually a couple of weeks. Maybe even months. I’m helping out with the baby plus my career has taken off in this town. And you are?

    Alley:
    I’m John’s girlfriend Alley.

    Marissa:
    Oh that’s right. How could I forget a pretty face like yours? John showed me some pictures he took of you.

    Alley:
    Those were from a long time ago.

    Marissa:
    Obviously. Hopefully we can get to know each other a lot better. Please excuse me. I need to take care of my niece.

    John:
    Yeah she’s been a big help for the most part.

    Marissa:
    Of course. Someone has to take care of that child. I’m surprised though, isn’t she your baby Alley?

    John:
    Marissa I-

    Alley:
    No. She’s not. Her mother died.

    Marissa:
    Such a shame. Well at least one of us ladies want to give that baby some sort of maternal attention. Better me than you. Since I’m family and all. It was very nice meeting you Annie. Ta!

    Marissa exits. Alley looks at John with piercing eyes. John can only smile.

    - - -
    Later that morning, Bryan is on his cell phone making business calls to both Benjamin and Lanoi. He sits in his comfortable leather couch to the home that he had no plans on leaving.

    Bryan:
    Look if you’re not going to accept my offer, which is of course is a very bold decision in my opinion, then would you at least reconsider getting me back on the board. You and Benjamin both know that I am good for this school. My name has been cleared. Yes Lanoi, we’ll keep in touch.

    Bryan hangs up the phone. He walks into his kitchen to pour himself some orange juice. The doorbell rings and he answers it to find a girl with short black hair and sunglasses covering her face in front of him.

    Bryan:
    Can I help you?
    (being smart)
    I didn’t order a Spanish hooker.

    Nan takes off her wig and glasses. Bryan is shocked that it’s her.

    Nan:
    I should slap you across the face but knowing you, you might enjoy it.

    Bryan:
    Nan I didn’t know it was you. What a disguise.

    Nan:
    Who did you think it was, London?

    Both of them laugh. Nan walks in and looks around.

    Nan:
    You know I really have missed this place.

    Bryan:
    I missed you too.

    Nan:
    I said your place, not you. Keep it down and in your pants boy.
    (stops herself)
    Sorry that was mean of me. I have missed you too.

    Bryan:
    So you have a disguise down but our plan to convince Blake to give over his rights of the school to London was a big bust.

    Nan:
    I was working on that. Seriously I was right there. But, like always, big mouth Alley has to come and ruin everything.

    Bryan:
    Why can’t you just shut her up then?

    Nan:
    Believe me I tried that. We go way back and I tried killing her then- Let’s just change the subject. Like to Blake Hammerton.

    Bryan:
    You can’t go around dawning a disguise all day, you need to let people know that you’re back.

    Nan:
    I’m considered a dead murderer. How the hell do you think I can do that?

    Bryan:
    Easy.

    Nan:
    Do tell.

    Bryan:
    After thinking long and hard about it, let’s have a press conference telling everyone that you’re alive.

    Nan:
    Oh great so that they can throw rocks at me and crucify me for everything that I’ve done. Did you lose your brain when I was gone?

    Bryan:
    I’m not finished. We’ll make it look like you were a hero. Let’s just say that there was some disgruntled worker who you caught trying to blow up the place but when you got there it was too late.

    Nan:
    I like it. I really do. It’s the perfect lie that makes me look so good. It’s better than what I was thinking of. My twin sister’s dead so I couldn’t really fake like I was her.

    Bryan:
    And you know we still have that little piece of evidence that we can use against Blake.

    Nan and Bryan walk over to his living room. He pops in a DVD and presses play on his large high definition flat screen TV. They watch Blake and London breaking into London’s home to retrieve Nan’s journal.

    Nan:
    Looks like we caught the president red handed.

    Bryan:
    Exactly! We’ll just make it look like he wrote your note to blame you. That sense of yours is very good. You knew he would come looking for answers. This is pure genius.

    Nan:
    I’m glad we set him up the way we did. I can clear my name and you go after the sole ownership of the school.

    Nan walks to the refrigerator and opens up a bottle of champagne. She pours it in his orange juice to make him a Mimosa.

    Nan:
    (sighing)
    Bryan, you need a little more class.

    Nan throws away the normal glass and pours it into an expensive looking champagne flute. She hands the drink to Bryan.

    Nan:
    To getting what’s truly ours and to getting back at the people who truly deserve it!

    Bryan looks at Nan in a loving way.

    Bryan:
    Cheers.

    They both clink their classes in hopes of making their plan work.

    Later that night, Will tosses and turns in his bed. Alone. Above him he could hear loud noises coming from Jace’s room.

    Will:
    Damn it.

    Will wakes up and turns his light on. He looks up at the ceiling.

    Will:
    What the hell?

    After further investigation, Will can hear the muffled voices of Jace and Alicia.

    In Jace’s room, things were obviously getting hot and heavy. The bed was creaking loud as it was being rocked back and forth.

    Alicia:
    Yes. Don’t stop Jace.

    Jace:
    Yeah you like that baby?

    Alicia:
    (screaming)
    YES!

    Jace:
    Oh yeah. Who’s the best?

    Alicia:
    You!

    Jace:
    Say my name!

    Alicia:
    Shut up and do me.

    Downstairs Will was pacing back and forth. He couldn’t go back to sleep because of the loud sex above him. He hears Lenvy’s voice.

    Lenvy:
    Are you jealous?

    Will:
    Jealous of what?

    Lenvy:
    Jealous that that’s not you upstairs plowing her.

    Will:
    No.

    Lenvy:
    Admit it Will. You like her.

    Will:
    I’m not admitting to anything and as a matter of fact, I’m going to end that disgusting noise.

    Lenvy:
    What are you going to do?

    Will:
    You know me? I like to take matters into my own hands.

    Will walks into the common area of the apartment. The other neighbors obviously heard the same thing because a movie was being blasted upstairs. The doors to downstairs rooms were closed and the coast was clear. Will looks at the Fire Alarm and reads.

    Will:
    (reading)
    Pull in case of emergency.

    Lenvy:
    Don’t do it.

    Will:
    There must be some sort of fire going on in that room. And I just need to put a damper on it.

    Will pulls the alarm and quickly runs back to his room so that no one could see him. Upstairs, Jace looked around and stops.

    Jace:
    What the hell?

    Alicia:
    Oh my god. Is that the fire alarm?

    Jace:
    [!@#$%^&*] it is.

    Alicia:
    Come on let’s go.

    Jace:
    It was probably those stupid pot heads again. Just get some clothes on. Damn it. I was right there to.

    Everyone in the apartment makes their way outside. Alicia bundles up in a school blanket while Jace walks out with shorts on. Alicia smiles seductively at Will.

    Jace:
    (accusing his neighbors)
    Which one of you dickheads did this?

    Will:
    (speaking up)
    Yeah! Which one?

    Will turns away and begins to chuckle before he sees Lenvy shooting him a disappointing look.

    - - -
    Later that night, Jenny and Carlos have a date together at one of Point Palace’s most lavished restaurants, The River Teal.

    Carlos:
    This is what I’ve been looking forward to all day.

    Jenny:
    (smiling)
    Me too. I know that you think that what I did was stupid but I took the blame for us.

    Carlos:
    As much as I would like to think that it was a smart move, I am kind of realizing that you were only trying to protect me.

    Jenny:
    To be honest, I kind of thought in the back of my head, that yeah you could’ve murdered Nick. You have a wonderful career and everything’s going great for you so I didn’t want to see it taken away. Especially since you couldn’t remember anything.

    Carlos:
    Jenny let’s just forget about everything that happened and move on. C.C.’s arrested and well Nick’s rotting in hell as we speak.

    Jenny:
    You’re right.

    A slow song begins and Carlos stands up. He places out his hand to offer her a dance.

    Carlos:
    May I have this dance chica?

    Jenny:
    Chica? I haven’t heard that name in the longest time.

    Jenny takes his hand and leads him to the dance floor. The two get closer to each other. She looks into his eyes.

    Jenny:
    Thank you.

    Carlos:
    For what?

    Jenny:
    For always being there for me. For never leaving me whenever you had the chance to all those years ago.

    Carlos:
    You know you mean way too much to me to just throw everything away.

    Jenny:
    I feel the same way.

    Carlos leans in and kisses her. The two continue to dance with one another until Jenny begins to feel light headed. The room was spinning for her.

    Carlos:
    (noticing her)
    What’s up?

    Jenny:
    Oh I don’t feel so well. I’ll be right back.

    Jenny makes her way to the bathroom. She finds her way to one of the stalls and clings onto a toilet for dear life. She then vomits. Feeling slightly embarrassed, she regains her composure and stands up before fainting on the bathroom floor.

    - - -
    The next morning, after being fully unpacked, Blake treats himself to an early snack. He walks into The Palace Café to find it a little bit busy. While waiting in line, he looks to a table that he and London favored but it was just a fantasy. Blake shakes his head and focuses on the counter.

    Ginny:
    Can I help you? Oh my god President Hammerton it’s so nice to see you.

    Blake:
    Hey Ginny it’s cool you can call me Blake.

    Ginny:
    Of course Blake. What would you like?

    Blake:
    How about a Mocha Peppermint Frap please.

    Ginny:
    Sure thing.

    Blake:
    You sure do look busy.

    Ginny begins to make his drink.

    Ginny:
    Yeah. The owner is leaving and I’m thinking about maybe making a bid for this place. Now that I’m the manager, we’ve been super short staffed. The Palace Café means so much to this school for someone to just close it. I want to be this place’s savior.

    Blake:
    You would be great at that.

    Ginny:
    Awww thanks for the compliment…Blake.

    At another table, Tanisha overhears Ginny’s conversation with Blake.

    Tanisha:
    Well, well, well. Looks like someone will just have to outbid her.

    Ginny hands Blake his drink but accidentally spills it on Tanisha.

    Ginny:
    Oh my god-
    (noticing Tanisha)
    I’m not sorry.
    (to Blake)
    I’ll make you a new one.

    Ginny throws a towel at Tanisha who tries going after her but is stopped by Blake.

    Blake:
    Hey calm down. It was somewhat my fault.

    Tanisha:
    It’s cool.

    Blake:
    You were at my wedding right?

    Tanisha:
    Yeah I was helping out Alexia. It’s nice to see you again Blake.

    Blake:
    You too. I actually just spoke to her. Her and Owen are doing well.

    Ginny hands Blake his new drink.

    Tanisha:
    (raising her voice)
    Yeah Owen and I are still an item. You hear that loser? I still have your ex.

    Blake:
    And again I apologize for everything.

    Tanisha:
    (staring down Ginny)
    I don’t blame you at all Blake.

    Blake exits the café and drama inside. Sitting outside was Bryan, reading a newspaper, watching his every step. Blake bumps into another female.

    Blake:
    Whoa. I’m sorry.

    Blake takes a deeper look at the stranger in front of him. His mouth drops when he realizes who the stranger is.

    Blake:
    It’s you!

    Nan takes off her sunglasses to reveal herself to him with a big smile on her face.

    Nan:
    Hello Blake. Long time no see!

  23. Matt P.
    - - -
    Blake looks at Nan with the most hated eyes he could ever give anyone in his whole entire life. She doesn’t back down, instead she puts her hands on her hips and smirks.

    Blake:
    You…I can’t believe that you have the gull to show your face in this town.

    Nan:
    It was bound to happen sooner or later.

    Blake:
    After everything you did, you’re-

    Nan:
    Alive!

    Blake:
    Ridiculous. Vile. Inhumane.

    Nan:
    What else do you have for me big boy? It’s not like I haven’t heard it all from you or your little punk ass sidekicks before. Besides, you can go and tell whoever you want that I’m alive. It’s always he said, she said with you and me. That’s the way it would be and of course I would win. Just like I used to.

    Blake:
    No you won’t! Do you know how much damage you caused? You ruined so many people’s lives. Parents don’t have their children because of you. Lovers don’t have their significant others! This school is still picking up the pieces because of everything that you caused.

    Nan:
    Nan Sheridan’s dead for the moment but don’t worry, I’ll pop up alive with some sort of reasonable explanation. I always do.

    Blake:
    The hell you will.
    (forcefully grabs her arm)
    You’re getting arrested.

    Nan pulls her arm back.

    Nan:
    Get your hands off of me, unless you want me to scream rape again.

    Blake:
    What’s worst of all is that you tried making me think that London was alive.

    Nan:
    It’s always about you isn’t it? How you feel or what you want!
    (mocking)
    Oh my daddy buys me the school and everyone has to listen to what I say or else.
    (snickers)
    And I’m the selfish one.

    Blake:
    When you got involved with London and my school, that’s when you crossed the line.

    Nan:
    Just like when you made me think you were in love with me so that you can try to humiliate me for your own benefit? That’s some line of bullshit you got there.

    Blake:
    You won’t get away with this.

    Nan:
    (taunting)
    I’m so scared Blake.
    (tempting)
    It was fun to kiss you again. To feel the passion that you had with your wife. Excuse me, your dead wife.

    Nan had obviously hit a nerve from her last comment.

    Blake:
    What did you say?

    Nan:
    (talking like London)
    Blake I love you so much. I truly do, I-

    With all of the anger and rage inside of him, Blake charges for her throat and begins to strangle her. He is so forceful with his attack that Nan falls to the ground as he begins to bash her head off of the ground.

    Blake:
    (screaming)
    YOU TAKE IT BACK!

    Ginny comes rushing outside and pulls Blake off of Nan.

    Blake:
    You’re done psycho! You hear me? You’re done. If I see you again I’ll make sure you’re deported.

    Blake exits in a huff. From a few tables back, Bryan takes the last picture of Blake’s rage with his digital camera. Nan coughs and tries to look like a victim. Luckily no one knew who she was when she put her sunglasses on her face. She then looks at Bryan who smiles back at her with his camera in hand.

    Dylan gets a call on his cell phone from Blake who is pacing back and forth in his office. After sleeping alone, Dylan gives his best friend his full attention.

    Blake:
    And you won’t believe who I ran into today? Nan freakin’ Sheridan! The bitch is ridiculous and after impersonating London she’s back to wreak more havoc on this school.

    Dylan:
    Damn. That girl has more lives than Jason Voorhees. Just calm down and we’ll handle it. We’re a team, okay?

    Blake:
    Thanks man. I’ll talk to you later.

    Blake hangs up with Dylan who gets dressed. He then gets another phone call.

    Dylan:
    Hello?

    Rebecca:
    Dylan it’s Rebecca.

    Dylan:
    Thank you for calling me back.

    Rebecca:
    I wanted to make an appointment for you as soon as possible.

    Dylan:
    That sounds good. How does later today sound?

    Rebecca:
    I can pen you in. I’ll let the secretary at the clinic know right away.

    From outside of his bedroom, Carrie feels bad for the way she reacted the other day, so she surprises him with some breakfast in bed. She makes her way into his room with the key he gave her but stops when she hears him talking in his bedroom.

    Rebecca:
    What exactly seems to be wrong?

    Dylan:
    I…I don’t know. I just started to have shooting pains near my stomach and that region-

    Rebecca:
    Say no more. We’ll take a look at it when you come in and see me, okay?

    Dylan:
    Sure thing.

    Dylan hangs up with Rebecca and opens up his bedroom door to find Carrie with a smile on her face.

    Dylan:
    Hey, I didn’t expect to see you.

    Carrie:
    I know. I wanted to surprise you.

    Dylan:
    With breakfast. That’s so sweet but I’m not hungry.

    Carrie:
    That’s okay. You can just eat it later. Look I’m sorry about what happened the other day.

    Dylan:
    I am too. I didn’t mean to freak out on you like the way I did. It’s just- I’ve been going through some stuff back home and to tell you the truth I’m not over the whole DiMarco fiasco.

    Carrie:
    That’s exactly how I feel but you can always talk to me. We’re a team and I’m going to be here for you regardless. In speaking of Juliana, she keeps calling me, wanting to start a family.

    Dylan:
    If she wants that then tell her to move here.

    Carrie:
    That’s an idea.

    Dylan:
    That conniving bit-

    Carrie:
    (offended)
    That’s my mother you’re talking about!

    Dylan:
    Yeah well some mother she is.

    Carrie:
    Whoa where did that come from?

    Dylan:
    Someone should’ve told you about this before it came out the way it did. If Juliana didn’t like you hanging out with Victor, maybe she should’ve brought up that you were going out with your uncle!

    Carrie:
    We’ll deal with her in our own way. Just calm down.

    Dylan:
    Thanks for the breakfast, it was a very nice gesture.

    Dylan kisses her on her cheek.

    Carrie:
    So who were you talking to on the phone?

    Dylan:
    (caught off guard)
    What?

    Carrie:
    I heard you talking to someone on the phone. Who was it?

    In the afternoon, Alley hangs out in John’s room while he is in class. She is sitting on his couch, working on some homework. Marissa walks in to the front door and smiles at her.

    Marissa:
    Is my brother around?

    Alley:
    No. He’s in class and then I think he’s going to go to his internship.

    Marissa:
    That’s wonderful that he’s doing that. I was the one who got him that internship after all.

    Alley:
    You never really told me what you do for a living.

    Marissa:
    I’m in charge of booking photo shoots for a major marketing firm.

    Alley:
    Then that would just fit perfectly with John and his dreams.

    Marissa:
    It sure will. If you’ll excuse me I’m-

    Alley:
    Hey I was wondering if I could ask you something.

    Marissa:
    It’s a free country hun so shoot.

    Alley:
    What did you mean by your comment the other day about L.J.?

    Marissa:
    Annie you shouldn’t look too much into it.

    Alley:
    (correcting her)
    My name is Alley. Okay? And I sort of felt offended by what you said.

    Marissa:
    Well, it just seems like you haven’t made any effort with that little girl. Believe me, I’m a keen observer of things that come to my family, and first impressions are everything. That’s what I got from you. That you don’t care about baby L.J.

    Alley stands up from the couch to get in her face.

    Alley:
    How dare you!

    Marissa:
    Listen I’m only calling it as I see it. Since I’ve been here, you haven’t even picked her up once.

    Alley:
    I beg your pardon.

    John comes back from his class and the girls look at him.

    John:
    Hey what are you two up to.

    Marissa:
    We were just getting to know each other a little better. Isn’t that right Alley?

    Alley:
    Yes we were.

    Marissa:
    I’m off to tend to my beautiful niece. Take care you too and take some advice from me, if you’re planning on spending some alone time, try not to make another baby.
    (joking)
    I can’t take care of two kids or my rates as a babysitter might go up.

    Alley shakes her head as she exits.

    John:
    You two seem to be getting along just fine.

    Alley:
    Really? She insults me behind your back.

    John:
    You just have to take her with a grain of salt. Marissa can be very opinionated.

    Alley:
    Oh you don’t say. I don’t like her John and I want her gone!

    Bryan makes his way to The Point Palace Inquiry. He finds Leon’s desk and taps on his door to get his attention.

    Leon:
    What can I do for you?

    Bryan:
    It’s not so much what you can do for me but what I can do for you.

    Leon:
    Oh yeah? Funny I thought you were accused of assistance to arson.

    Bryan:
    That was all cleared up.

    Leon:
    Please continue.

    Bryan pulls out his memory stick and hands it to Leon.

    Bryan:
    I have some very interesting pictures to show you.

    Leon plugs the memory stick into his computer and pulls up the pictures of Blake attacking Nan.

    Bryan:
    Our school’s president seems to have a bit of a temper.

    Leon:
    Wait! Isn’t that-

    Bryan:
    Yep it’s Nan Sheridan.

    Leon:
    But I thought she was dead.

    Bryan:
    She’s very much alive.

    Leon:
    I can’t print these pictures.

    Bryan:
    Why because they’re too damaging to Blake or is it because you two are too good of friends? I was hoping that this newspaper was fair and balanced. Now unfortunately you have a really good story on your hands. I’ll tell you everything you need to know about Nan showing up alive.

    Leon:
    In exchange for what?

    Bryan:
    For printing these pictures as front page news! Do we have ourselves a deal?

    Leon pauses for a moment and knew that he couldn’t pass up on an amazing story.

    Leon:
    Unfortunately but I will be getting Blake’s statement.

    Bryan:
    As you should.

    Bryan begins to exit until he turns around with a smile on his face.

    Bryan:
    Just a suggestion but maybe the title could read in big letters ‘President Hammers Dead Girl.’

    At The Palace Café, Ginny wipes off the counter and hears the chatter of the customers talking about the scene that took place earlier. She then bumps into Sky.

    Ginny:
    Sorry.

    Sky:
    By all means that’s quite alright.

    Ginny:
    Can I get you anything?

    Sky:
    I was wondering if you could get me an application.

    Ginny:
    You want to work here because that would be great?

    Sky:
    Actually I wanted to work on you!

    Ginny smiles at her comment but hands her an application anyway.

    Ginny:
    I thought you were taken.

    Sky:
    A girl like you must obviously have a very open mind.

    Ginny:
    (shy)
    I do.

    Sky:
    The other ship has sunk.

    Ava walks into the café and looks at both of the girls before walking away.

    Sky:
    Speak of the devil.

    Ava takes her seat but is then joined by who she thinks is Sky.

    Ava:
    After yesterday, I don’t want to talk to you!

    Ava turns around to find Nate with Marli.

    Ava:
    Oh it’s you.

    Nate:
    Geez what happened yesterday?

    Ava:
    It’s nothing.

    Nate:
    This is my friend Marli Calloway.

    Ava:
    Nice to meet you.

    Marli:
    You too. I really dig this place.

    Ava:
    Yeah it’s our number one hangout.

    Marli:
    I definitely could see myself spending a lot of time here. I’m going to go get a drink. It was nice meeting you.

    Nate:
    (to Marli)
    Can I get you anything?

    Marli:
    No I’m good. You’ve already done so much for me.
    (to Ava)
    He makes an excellent tour guide.

    Marli exits to the front counter.

    Ava:
    She’s cute. Not my type but she is definitely yours.

    Nate:
    She’s actually a past fling.

    Ava:
    Then you better watch out because our exes who seem to despise you could ruin your chances with her.

    Nate:
    I’ve actually already had her and the barista.

    Ava:
    Figures. Girls do talk.

    Nate:
    I’m not worried about them. I want to settle down and have something I never had before.

    Ava:
    Like what?

    Nate:
    Like a relationship.

    Ava:
    I’m sure that girl’s single. Maybe you two could strike up more than just moving body parts.

    Nate:
    Marli’s just a friend. She’s not my type.

    Silence comes between them. Ava looks behind him at Marli who just overheard what he said. He then notices her and bites his lip.

    Marli:
    Not your type for what?

    Nate:
    For taking you to the stupid places around campus. I wouldn’t do that to you.

    Marli:
    I think I’m going to go.

    Nate:
    Wait!

    Marli:
    No I’m good. By the way, those girls up there wanted me to flick you off and the one with the glasses said she still wants to scald your balls. You must’ve done a number on them.

    Ava:
    He does have a way with the ladies.

    Marli:
    Yep. He sure does. Bye.

    Marli exits. Nate sighs with disbelief.

    Ava:
    If you were smart you’d go after her.

    Nate:
    Only because I’m turning into such a good guy will I do that but I want you to know something. You’re the one that I want!

    Nate exits to go after Marli while Sky blows a kiss at Ava.

    Later that evening, Will sits down on the couch of the common area in the apartment. He wasn’t happy because a house meeting was called by Jace. The other neighbors weren’t amused either.

    Jace:
    Now I would like everyone to know how pissed off I am about what happened last night. Was there a fire last night?

    Everyone is silent.

    Jace:
    The only fire that was burning was the one between me and my girlfriend!

    Will:
    Which we all heard.

    Jace:
    Wait. What did you say?

    The others look at Will because they couldn’t believe what he just said, which was what was on their mind.

    Will:
    I live below you. You two weren’t exactly being the quietest.

    Jace:
    I apologize about that.

    Will:
    Hey it’s cool. You’re loud during sex, it’s understandable.

    Jace:
    Yeah I guess it is but I want to know which one of you pricks pulled the fire alarm.

    Will looks around as the other smirk at Jace’s comment.

    Neighbor:
    You’re paranoid dude!

    Jace:
    (responding to him)
    And you’re a pot head. Did you forget to put out your blunt or something?

    Neighbor:
    Dude no way. I finish that to the end.

    Neighbor #2:
    Yeah he has the burns on his lips to prove it.

    Both of the neighbors begin to laugh.

    Jace:
    I’m not paranoid, it’s just this is very inconvenient for some of us who are busy!

    Will roles his eyes. Alicia walks into the doors and notices all of the guys talking.

    Alicia:
    Hey boys. What’s shaking?

    Without thinking Will stands up and begins to walk towards her. Jace and everyone else notice his impulsive move.

    After a long deep sleep Jenny wakes up in her bed in her comfortable pajamas. Carlos walks into her bedroom and feels her head.

    Carlos:
    How do you feel chica?

    Jenny:
    Groggy but better.

    Carlos:
    You just needed some well deserved sleep. I made you some chicken noodle soup. It’s warming up in the kitchen.

    Jenny:
    That would be nice.

    Carlos:
    You’re lucky someone found you in the bathroom. I was so scared for you.

    Jenny:
    I just wasn’t feeling well. I guess-

    Carlos:
    What?

    Jenny:
    There’s really something that I need to tell you.

    Carlos:
    Okay. I don’t like where this going.

    Jenny:
    When I was in prison, I was…late.

    Carlos:
    (realizing what she’s getting at)
    You’re not saying what I think you’re saying. Are you? Oh my god this is like really bad de’ja vu of a scene I filmed for Blue Crystal.

    Jenny:
    It kind of all makes sense. This whole vomiting and fainting thing. I think I could be pregnant.

    Carlos stands up from the bed with a shocked look on his face.

    Carlos:
    Then I’m happy for you. I mean we could share a baby. This is great news. If you are that is but how will you know?

    Jenny:
    I bought a pregnancy test just to make sure, it was one of the items I was allowed to get from the prison gift shop. Surprisingly they have tons of items for that extra special conjugal visit. Oh and by the way, don’t think I was trying to hide this from you, I just didn’t want you to find out this way.

    Jenny goes into the bathroom to use the stick. She talks to Carlos through the door.

    Jenny:
    At least this didn’t happen when I was in jail. Could you think of how I could explain that one?

    Carlos:
    We were so careful though. We were protected!

    Jenny:
    Sometimes things happen you know.

    Carlos:
    Yeah but...let’s just…take it one step at a time. Okay Chica?

    Jenny:
    Totally agree.

    Carlos:
    Is it ready?

    Jenny opens the door and looks at Carlos before looking at the stick. She takes a deep breath and examines it.

    Jenny:
    Yep. It’s ready. Are you?

    Carlos:
    So what does it say? Are you preggers or not?

  24. Matt P.
    - - -
    Jenny kept focusing on the pregnancy stick that she held in front of her. At first she couldn’t feel it within the grasp of her fingertips. She was too overwhelmed from the results.

    Carlos:
    Well what does it say?

    Jenny:
    Two lines mean that you’re pregnant and one line means that you’re not.

    Jenny hands Carlos the test for him to view it. He looks at it and his mouth drops.

    Carlos:
    You’re pregnant. We’re going to have a baby! This is so amazing chica!

    Carlos hugs Jenny but tears begin to pour out of her eyes.

    Carlos:
    Oh chica, we’re going to-

    Jenny:
    NO! No. Don’t you realize what this means?

    Carlos:
    It means that our future is changing.

    Jenny:
    I wish it were that simple.

    Carlos:
    What are you trying to get at?

    Jenny:
    You and I are always were protected.

    Carlos:
    Yeah but I guess something leaked through and that something was fate.

    Jenny:
    You weren’t the only one I had sex with.

    Carlos freezes in terror.

    Carlos:
    (realizing)
    Oh my god.

    Jenny:
    Yeah I didn’t think that far ahead until now.

    Carlos:
    It has to be ours. It just has to.

    Jenny:
    Believe me, I want us to have a child I really do but we have to realize the reality of the situation.

    Carlos:
    (in denial)
    This can’t be happening.

    Jenny:
    Carlos, this baby could be Nick’s!

    Will makes his way to The Cue Ball, the same place where he once had a date with Mika at, but this time he was going to enjoy a night out alone. He sits at the bar until he sees Alicia playing pool with Sky. Will walks up behind her.

    Will:
    Howdy mate.

    Alicia:
    Your Australian lingo is atrocious. This is my friend Sky. Sky this is Will Pazner one of Jace’s neighbors.

    Sky:
    Nice to meet you.

    Will:
    Same here. Where's Jace?

    Alicia:
    Probably drinking back at the apartment. Listen I feel really bad about the other night. I didn’t mean to be as loud as I was.

    Will:
    And like I said, don’t worry about it.

    Alicia gets a call on her cell phone. It’s Jace who sits outside of the apartment smoking a cigarette.

    Alicia:
    Hello?

    Jace:
    Where are you?

    Alicia:
    I’m out with some friends. You would know that if you were to place a tracking device on me.

    Jace:
    Oh baby if I could, I would. You wouldn’t want to know where I’d put it though.

    Alicia:
    I can think of a few places. What do you want?

    Jace:
    I want you to come back to my apartment so that we can have some fun. I’ll give you some balls to play with.

    Alicia:
    Funny.
    (turning her head)
    Will’s here so we can be as loud as we want.

    Jace:
    You’re with Will?

    Alicia:
    Yeah I-

    Jace hangs up with Alicia. She turns her attention to Will and Sky.

    Alicia:
    I have to go. I’ll see you two around.

    Will:
    Do you need a ride?

    Alicia:
    No thanks. I’m good.

    Alicia exits leaving Will to mingle with Sky.

    Sky:
    You know that she’s bi right?

    Will:
    No I didn’t. Are you trying to get with her?

    Sky:
    I wish. She’s a hot little number isn’t she? I think she’s all talk and that’s something that I don’t need. I’m already plotting against my current.

    Will:
    Good luck with that.

    Sky:
    You have a better chance with Alicia then I do.

    Will:
    Why would you say that?

    Sky:
    First off it’s obvious you have a little crush on her and second she’s having problems with her boyfriend. The guy’s a dick!

    Will:
    Oh you don’t say?

    Sky:
    I don’t like him at all. He treats her like crap but she won’t admit it.

    Will:
    Let me ask you something, Sky is it?

    Sky:
    Yes?

    Will:
    I need your help. The more info you can give me on those two, the better.

    Sky:
    What’s in it for me?

    Will:
    You need help getting back at your ex right?

    Sky:
    I do. It’s obvious that you like Alicia.

    Will:
    Then we’re going to very good friends.

    Ava walks back to her room in the middle of the night. She literally runs into Nate who walks out of a grocery store with a grocery bag in his hand.

    Ava:
    Oh it’s you.

    Nate:
    Nice to see you too.

    Ava:
    Where’s your new groupie?

    Nate:
    Who Marli? I told you we’re not dating.

    Ava:
    Whatever.

    Ava continues to walk on. Nate follows her.

    Nate:
    Why does it always seem like I’m the one who’s following you?

    Ava:
    If that’s how you feel, then maybe you should follow the signs that I don’t know what I want yet.

    Nate:
    You said the word yet so there has to be some sort of chance in there.

    Ava:
    Don’t look too much into it.

    Ava notices Sky walking out of The Cue Ball. She stops and pulls Nate aside so that they can’t be seen.

    Nate:
    What are you doing?

    Ava:
    Just shut up for a second.

    Ava watches Sky taking down Will’s number. Nate notices it too.

    Nate:
    Either my eyes have deceived me or the lesbian is becoming a hetero. Considering she hates anything with a penis.

    Ava:
    Oh I can’t believe she’s hanging around him.

    Nate:
    Who’s he?

    Ava:
    Like the worst person in the world. He’s the one who turned me into an alcoholic some years ago. This is great. My two exes are talking.

    Nate:
    Then maybe it’s a blessing those two are together.

    Ava:
    I just don’t know why she would do such a thing. What is she up to?

    Nate:
    (frustrated)
    You know what? Instead of worrying about that butch bully, maybe you should start worrying about yourself.

    Ava:
    What?

    Nate:
    Why would you care about her? You broke up with her because she treated you badly. Then you have someone like me who’s willing to change his ways, settle down, and be a loving person to you. You know I would never say or do this for any girl but you just seem to care about that dyke!

    Ava slaps Nate across the face for using that word.

    Ava:
    I hate that word.

    Nate:
    Why? Because you’re worried that you still might be one? Maybe you should question if you’re truly over her. If you are, you have my number.

    Nate exits leaving Ava to feel a little bad about how she treated him.

    Marissa is on her cell phone talking to a business partner while she waits outside for the glass elevator of The River Teal.

    Marissa:
    Yeah I’m staying at my brothers place. It’s saving me money and you cannot believe how rich this school is. Besides I’m going to make him a great offer doing whatever it is that he likes.

    The elevator opens and she gets on it by herself.

    Marissa:
    No. I have a legit job in my family’s eyes so while I’m gone I need you watch over the business for me. Got it? Good. When the time’s right, we’ll migrate the business to Point Palace. Hopefully my brother could be our guinea pig. I just have to get rid of his no good girlfriend to do that. Which will be no problem at all. Bye.

    Marissa hangs up the phone and walks over to John and Alley’s table. Their backs are turned to her.

    John:
    Promise me you’ll be good tonight.

    Alley:
    I don’t like her. I’m sorry John it’s just a vibe.

    John:
    You will. After tonight I’m sure you two are going to get along so well.

    Marissa:
    (overhearing them)
    Who’s getting along? Me and Alley? I like her John. She has sass.

    Alley:
    (coy)
    Thanks.

    John opens Marissa’s chair for her to sit down on.

    Marissa:
    He’s such a gentlemen but I’m sure you already know that Alley. You are one lucky girl.

    John:
    Believe me she knows.

    Alley:
    I do.

    Marissa:
    And even though I know you two have been through so much-

    Alley:
    Wait! How do you know that?

    Marissa:
    I can’t reveal my sources but I can assure you that I’m not judging anyone.

    John:
    Damn it! Guy told you things. That’s great. When I get home I’m going to beat his ass.

    Marissa:
    You will do no such thing.

    Alley:
    Can we just enjoy our dinner in peace please?

    Marissa:
    Of course we can.

    John:
    This is a celebration sis. Thanks to you, I can follow my dreams of being a photographer.

    Marissa:
    You sure can. I talked to my marketing firm and they want you to start right away. They really think you’re talented.

    Alley:
    I think that’s great but John you might have to travel a lot and I know you don’t like to do that. Since you’d be away from L.J. and me.

    Marissa:
    Listen Alley. I think that this is my brother’s decision, not yours!

    Alley begins to flare up. She digs her hands into the stem of her wine glass. John looks at her and knows exactly what she was going to do next.

    John:
    (whispering in her ear)
    Don’t even think about throwing that on her. It costs way too much.

    Alley stands up.

    Alley:
    Please excuse me.

    Alley exits to go to the bathroom leaving Marissa and John alone.

    John:
    It’s a wonderful opportunity.

    Marissa:
    And it’s obvious that you want to do it. Don’t let anyone hold you back from your dreams! Not even your girlfriend.

    The next afternoon, a press conference has been called by Bryan to discuss a huge issue. The reporters and other students gather because the buzz about Nan’s return surfaced with a huge impact. Outside of the administration wing, Blake takes Leon aside to talk to him with Dylan by his side.

    Leon:
    You know that I had to do it. I’m sorry.

    Blake:
    I understand, I truly do. But here’s my side of the story…

    Dylan:
    Hey we all know that Bryan's just as bad as Nan. When Blake was gone, he was trying to buy out the school, and I even caught him trying to forge Blake's name. So there you go Leon, you can print tha-

    Dylan places his hand near his upper thigh.

    Blake:
    Are you okay?

    Dylan:
    I’m fine dude. I think I might skip out. This is just way too much to handle. Get the justice you deserve!

    Dylan shakes Blake’s hand and exits. Blake gives Leon his quote as Bryan made his way to the stage.

    Bryan:
    I would like to thank everyone for coming on such short notice. We’re here to discuss yet again something that we wish to forget from this school’s past…the infamous gala explosion. Now I know that the story you all were led to believe was that Nan Sheridan was accused of the arson and that I, myself, had something to do with it.

    Reporter:
    Where’s your proof Mister Daniels?

    Bryan:
    Right here.

    Nan makes her way to the stage. She looks to the crowd with teary eyes.

    Bryan:
    I’ll let Nan tell her side of the story.

    Nan:
    I know that you all must hate me but that was what President Hammerton wanted you to think. He found a note that was forged by someone trying to pretend like they were me but it wasn’t. The night of the gala explosion, I found the person who did it. It was a male who…

    Nan stops and begins to break down with fake tears.

    Nan:
    He wasn’t right. I saw what he was doing and we struggled over the matches but before I knew it I was flown into some bushes. The incident was terrible.

    One of the spectators in the crowd was Will who kept shaking his head. Nan looks at him and smiles. There was nothing he could do because of their catch 22. He couldn’t accuse her or she would turn him in for the things that she knew he did. Like giving him the explosives. Instead Will decided to stay.

    Bryan:
    Now I know that this was very hard and traumatic for Nan so we will take questions.

    Will:
    (screaming)
    Did you kill her?

    Nan:
    Excuse me?

    Will:
    Did you kill my girlfriend? Was it you?

    Nan:
    No Will. You might've just gotten here a little late but it wasn't me. I would never do such a thing.

    Will:
    Yeah because you're an angel.

    Nan:
    So are you.

    Nan glares at Will who backs down.

    Blake:
    I have a question. Why did you feel the need to impersonate my dead wife? It was so convenient that Bryan returned around the same time.

    Nan:
    Blake I think that you need a hug. Unfortunately there’s nothing we can do to bring back London. God rest her soul.

    Blake:
    You’re a liar! Everyone in this school knows it. Same goes to you Bryan. You conniving snake.

    Bryan:
    (to the audience)
    May I also bring to everyone’s attention that Mister Hammerton actually attacked Nan the other day. It’s all in the latest issue of The Point Palace Inquiry.

    Mark:
    I have another question.

    Bryan notices Mark from the previous press conference. Bryan was worried that he might say something to ruin his cover.

    Mark:
    Miss Sheridan are you accusing Mister Hammerton for having something to do with the explosion?

    Nan:
    No I wouldn’t. I just think that it’s petty that he would try to make it look like we did it.

    Mark:
    May I ask where you were for so long?

    Nan:
    I was in a hospital, recuperating. There are still some burn scars to prove it.

    Blake:
    Here’s another burn for you missy. Officer Wendell arrest them.

    Bryan:
    What?

    Officer Wendell:
    Nice to see you again Miss Sheridan. It’s time that the authorities handled everything.

    Nan:
    But I-

    Officer Wendell:
    But nothing. Nan Sheridan and Bryan Daniels you are arrested for the suspicions of arson and faking a death. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you both say and do will be held against you in a court of law.

    Blake smiles as Nan and Bryan are arrested. Blake takes the stage.

    Blake:
    This concludes our conference!

    - - -
    Dylan watched the news reports about the scene that had went down earlier in the day. Students were confused on who they believed. In a recent poll, Blake’s story was checking out more than Nan’s but as the reporter pointed out, her story was valid. Dylan shuts off the television and skips into bed. He folds his hands to pray.

    Dylan:
    Why god? I don’t ask for much. Anything that I do or anything that I’ve sinned for, I’ve always wanted forgiveness. Why me?

    A tear pours out of Dylan’s eye and onto this pillow. He gets a knock on his door but doesn’t get up to answer it. After a third knock, Carrie makes her way into his room.

    Carrie:
    (calling out to him)
    Dylan? Are you here?

    Dylan:
    I’m in bed.

    Carrie walks in and finds him in his bed with the pillow over his face. The room was dark, she opens up a window to let some light in.

    Dylan:
    Did I ask you to come in here and lighten things up? I was trying to sleep.

    Carrie:
    Wow you’re snippy today. Are you sure it’s not your time of the month? Maybe I should let you borrow a pad of mine.

    Dylan:
    I’m not having it today Carrie.

    Carrie:
    What is it? Why? What’s up?

    Dylan:
    (raising his voice)
    Like I’ve told you and everyone else a thousand times before, it’s nothing!

    Carrie:
    Nothing is what you told me when I asked you who you were talking to.

    Dylan:
    Seriously you’re being ridiculous.

    Carrie:
    Me? You’ve slumped into some sort of depression and I don’t know why. Is it because of the DiMarco fiasco?

    Dylan:
    (sarcastic)
    Oh yeah like that’s it.

    Carrie:
    Way to humor me a hole!

    Dylan’s room phone rings. Carrie answers it but Dylan quickly gets out of bed to retreieve it.

    Dylan:
    Hello?

    Rebecca:
    Hi it’s Rebecca.

    Carrie:
    Fine be that way.

    Carrie exits his bedroom and goes into his living room.

    Dylan:
    Did the test results come back?

    Rebecca:
    They did and it’s not good.

    Dylan:
    Great.

    Carrie:
    What is going on Rebecca?

    Dylan & Rebecca:
    CARRIE?

    Carrie had placed them on speaker phone located in the living room without them knowing.

    Carrie:
    Yeah so I want to know what’s going on and I want to know now! What’s wrong with Dylan?
    = = =

    Next time on Point Palace, find out what's wrong with Dylan, in the most compelling plot that's never been done in soap opera history.

    Dylan felt daggers go through him as he heard Carrie’s voice on the other end. Speak you fool, was what he thought to himself, but the words couldn’t come out. On the other end, Rebecca didn’t know what to do either as she leaned against her office desk.

    Carrie:
    Come on you two. I’m waiting for an explanation.

    Rebecca:
    Unfortunately Carrie I’m not obligated to do such a thing. There are patient confidentiality laws that prohibit me from doing so.

    Carrie:
    Cut the bull. You were obligated enough to let Dylan know that I wasn’t pregnant so don’t even get me started on who owes who what!

    Dylan:
    We’ll deal with this now. Rebecca I’ll call you back.

    Rebecca:
    Okay. I’m sorry Carrie, truly.

    Dylan hangs up with Rebecca and walks into his living room. Carrie’s eyes are hurt and were moving back and forth a mile a minute. She was obviously shook up in anger.

    Carrie:
    You know what? I know what it is that I have to do. I’m going to call Juliana and I’m going to tell her that things aren’t working here. She wants me to be a family with her, then fine. I’ll leave. It wouldn’t be the first time.

    Carrie begins to dial numbers on the phone until Dylan retrieves it and hangs up. She turns away from him.

    Dylan:
    You’re not going to do that Carrie. We both know that the situation’s not that easy.

    Carrie:
    (turning back to look at him)
    Then what is it? What is wrong with you?

    Dylan looks away from her.

    Carrie:
    Of course. It’s like your emotions just go limp. I don’t know even know who you are anymore.

    Tears begin to fall down Dylan’s eyes and onto the floor.

    Dylan:
    I’m sorry. I’m sorry for being distant but…

    Carrie:
    But what? Just tell me please! Whatever it is, I’m sure I can handle it. Are you gay? Or did you impregnate someone? Just say it.

    Dylan:
    (admitting)
    I have testicular cancer!

    Silence rocks the room. Carrie’s mouth slowly dropped.

    Dylan:
    Yeah. That’s why I didn’t want to make love to you because I didn’t think that I could do it. That’s why I wanted you to leave me alone because I don’t know how to handle this. That’s why I hid everything from you.

    Carrie:
    Oh my god. Dylan I feel like such an idiot for- I’m the one who’s sorry.

    Dylan:
    Don’t be. You had no idea and I’ve been treating you like garbage.

    Carrie:
    I- I just don’t know what to say or what to do.

    Dylan:
    Just tell me that you’re here for me. Those are the only words I want to hear.

    Carrie:
    Dylan you know that I will always be here for you. I love you.

    Dylan:
    I’m scared Carrie. I’m so scared. You go your whole life thinking that nothing will happen to you but boom you find something on your testicle and it ruins everything.
    (admitting to himself)
    I have testicular cancer!

    Dylan falls to the ground and cries. Carrie goes down with him and holds on to him for support. She cradles him in her arms, rocking him back and forth, while he sobbed from his own tragedy.

    Feeling really bad about the way she handled herself, Ava knocks on Nate’s hotel room door to talk to him. After the second knock he answers it.

    Ava:
    Can I come in? I brought you some breakfast. It’s a peace offering.

    Nate:
    Really? What else do you have with it? A punch in the face?

    Ava:
    No. I’m here to apologize.

    Nate:
    Then by all means.

    Ava walks in to his hotel room. She places the breakfast bag on the table closest to the door.

    Ava:
    Have you thought about moving out of the hotel and into an apartment?

    Nate:
    This place has been home to me. Not that you care but I can afford it.

    Ava:
    Right with your school salary and all. That was the main reason why you came here in the first place. Right?

    Nate:
    That and snatch. Since that got me a nice helping of Chlamydia, I’m looking to other things.

    Ava:
    Look I’m sorry for what I did. It was out of place for me to hit you. It’s just I don’t like when people say mean words or demean someone because of their sexuality.

    Nate:
    But what are you?

    Ava:
    You know, I’ve been asking myself that question since day one. Am I Ava the alcoholic? Am I Ava the lesbian? Ava the mistress? Honestly I don’t know.

    Nate:
    The only thing that angers me is that I’m willing to give you something that I could never give any girl. I’m willing to give you my heart.

    Ava:
    It’s just- I-

    Nate:
    Are you still gay? Do you have feelings for Sky?

    Ava looks away from him.

    Nate:
    Fine. You don’t know what you are that’s cool. We’ll do a little test then.

    Nate takes off his shirt and throws it on the ground.

    Ava:
    What are you doing?

    Nate takes his pants off and throws them on the ground to until he is completely nude.

    Nate:
    I want to prove to you that you’re attracted to guys.

    Ava:
    (confused)
    What?

    Nate:
    Do I turn you on? Why don’t you come over here and hold me. Maybe you need touch me to find out that you want it.

    Nate grabs her hand and runs it all over his body. He tries pulling her in close to kiss him but she pulls away after finding herself to be caught in the moment.

    Ava:
    No Nate I can’t!

    Nate:
    Of course. I’m not trying to force you to do anything that you don’t want to do.

    Ava:
    You want to know why I don’t want to be with you physically? It’s because of your STD!

    Later on the in the afternoon, Alley and John follow Marissa into a boardroom where John was going to be introduced to one of Marissa’s client. Marissa purposely dressed revealingly because she knew what sold. Especially since the client that she was trying to go after wanted her for the longest time. Marissa opens the door and flirtatiously puts her arms out to hug Antonio who liked her string tube top and long skirt to match.

    Marissa:
    Antonio, it’s so great to see you again.

    Antonio:
    It sure is my dear. Now where is that talented brother of yours?

    Marissa:
    Right here. Antonio meet the next Andy Warhol.

    John:
    (modest)
    Yeah I wish. John Snaldry. It’s very nice to meet you.

    Alley clears her throat. Marissa rolls her eyes knowing that Alley wanted to get a mention also.

    Marissa:
    (unenthusiastic)
    This is his girlfriend Alley.

    Alley:
    Antonio it’s so nice to meet you. I love all of your products. You are the one who definitely has talent.

    Antonio:
    I like her. Such spunk. It’s nice to have an entourage.

    Marissa:
    She’s definitely something else.
    (changing the subject)
    Now I’m sure you’ve seen John’s work. I believe my company forwarded you his portfolio.

    Antonio:
    I did. It was very edgy. Just like our clothing line.

    John:
    You really liked my work?

    Antonio:
    Of course I did. Let me tell you something, you are one hell of a lucky son of a bitch because you have connections with someone like your sister and if I didn’t like your stuff, we wouldn’t be talking.

    John:
    Thank you so much. Seriously thank you.

    Marissa leans in to show Antonio some cleavage which definitely catches his attention.

    Marissa:
    Now let’s talk about the photo shoot.

    John notices what she’s doing and pinches her arm to let her know that he’s on to her. She quickly stops.

    Antonio:
    Well you’ll be filming models wearing our new summer line. We like to film them doing the most eccentric and sexy things ever.

    John:
    I hope that I can get the job done. You seriously don’t know how much this means to me to get a chance like this.

    Alley:
    He can definitely get the job done. I don’t know if he put this one picture in his portfolio but we actually met because he-

    Marissa:
    Alley may I speak to you for a second outside?

    Marissa grabs Alley’s arm to raise her out of her seat as they both go outside into the lobby. John is alone with Antonio.

    John:
    I’m truly honored…

    Back outside, Marissa points her finger at Alley to scold her.

    Marissa:
    I didn’t ask you to come here and this is the reason why because you would ruin things.

    Alley:
    I was only trying to help.

    Marissa:
    Helping? You’re not doing anything to help. This is a very professional business meeting so why don’t you let the professionals do the talking. Okay?

    Alley:
    Professional? You call that slutty dress, if you can even call it a dress, professional? Do you know how obvious you are? I’m surprised Antonio didn’t start throwing dollar bills at you.

    Marissa:
    Do me a favor Alley. Shut the hell up or go away!

    Marissa turns away from her. Alley was so angry from what Marissa had told her that she wanted to rip her hair out but instead, Alley lightly grabbed onto the tie of Marissa’s top and tugs at it. Marissa walks back into the boardroom topless. John is embarrassed and shuts his eyes but Antonio liked the view.

    Marissa:
    (not noticing)
    Now where were we?

    Alley walks in behind her and begins to giggle as Marissa feels the cool breeze.

    Alley:
    (sarcastic)
    Looks like you’re definitely showing off your money makers.

    On the set of “Blue Crystal,” Carlos finishes filming a scene with Ian, and sees Jenny sitting off to the side next to a stage hand. Before he was able to go up to her, Carinia stops him.

    Carinia:
    Carlos that scene was amazing.

    Carlos:
    Thanks Rin.

    Carinia:
    Look we need you to screen test with some new potential actresses. Since C.C. was arrested, we’ve decided to recast her. And who knows? If it doesn’t work out, we could always fire them at the last second but that’s not up to me. That’s up to the people who I like to call the powers who pay my bills.

    Carlos:
    That’s great. I can’t wait.

    Carinia:
    I’ll let you know what time we need you.

    Carinia smiles and exits. He walks over to Jenny who looks tired and distraught.

    Carlos:
    Hey chica.

    Jenny:
    You did a really good job out there. Are we able to leave?

    Carlos:
    Yeah I think so.

    Jenny:
    I’m surprised that you were able to not let the situation affect your work.

    Carlos and Jenny exit to the studio parking lot. They get into Carlos’s car but before Carlos starts the car, he looks at Jenny.

    Carlos:
    Let’s just get it all out in the open right now.

    Jenny:
    How are you so calm and collected?

    Carlos:
    Because deep down inside I believe that baby belongs to us.

    Jenny:
    You’re very optimistic.

    Carlos:
    I am and you should be too.

    Jenny:
    How can I be optimistic, let alone happy? I was raped by your worse enemy. There’s a huge possibility that this baby could be Nick’s.

    Carlos:
    No! There’s no way possible.

    Jenny:
    (screaming)
    STOP IT! STOP THINKING THAT IT’S NOT A REALITY!

    Carlos looks away from her out of frustration. His flaring anger got to him. He repeatedly punches the steering wheel until his fists turn red.

    Carlos:
    Damn it!

    Jenny:
    Please just calm down. You scare me when you get angry.

    Carlos:
    I’ll call Agatha today. She can tell us what to do. We’ll get a paternity test and we’re going to find out whose baby it is. I just pray to god, that it’s ours because I’m so sure that it is.

    Nan and Bryan sit in questioning at The Cody Prescient. Officer Wendell and another cop sat across from them.

    Officer Wendell:
    I wanted to let you both know that your bail was received but you’re not free to go just yet.

    Bryan:
    We’ve been here for almost a day. You haven’t told us anything.

    Officer Wendell:
    That depends upon how cooperative you two will be. Now Nan where were you during the time after the explosion? You were ruled as dead.

    Nan:
    I can tell you where I was before and after the explosion happened. I walked back to the kitchen to leave because it was so boring and I noticed a worker was throwing gasoline everywhere. He was trying to start matches and…I had to stop him. For once, I wanted to be the hero. Instead there was fire everywhere and I was flown into some bushes. When I woke up, I was at the hospital and my memory was erased because I hit my head.

    Officer Wendell:
    Can you please tell me which doctor took care of you?

    Nan:
    Yes. It was Doctor Nicholas Quarr.

    Officer Wendell:
    He has since been deceased.

    Nan:
    I’m sure he has some sort of records.

    Bryan:
    When I found out that Nan was alive I wanted to make sure that she was given the proper rest that she needed before making a recovery.

    Officer Wendell:
    President Hammerton says that he has a confession note from you Nan and that you Bryan had helped planted the matches which I specifically remember finding.

    Officer Wendell plops down the note on the table. He motions for the two of them to look at it. Nan quickly eyes it up and down before pursing her lips to talk.

    Nan:
    First off it’s typed and second did you ask Blake where he got this from?

    Officer Wendell:
    No we didn’t. Care to share?

    Nan:
    I was worried that if the worker was alive he might come after me so I had put in a security device in my room, which Bryan watched over for me, when I was in the hospital. This was prior to me getting my memory back. So we watched the tapes and I have Blake and his wife London, breaking into my room. Your partner over there has that piece of evidence.

    Nan smiles at the other officer. Officer Wendell takes the partner to the side and he hands him a DVD.

    Bryan:
    You can watch that and then you can free us.

    Officer Wendell:
    Not yet.

    Nan:
    Come on Alan!

    Officer Wendell:
    Nan how many times have we been through this?

    Nan:
    Too many and you want to know why? It’s because Blake and his little gang hate me so they will do whatever it takes to bring me down. I’m innocent.

    Officer Wendell:
    That’s why Alley was witness to you pretending to be Blake’s dead wife? The owners of a Parisian chateau claim to be talking to someone who said she was London Tyler! How do you explain that?

    Nan:
    Oh yeah like I had the time to look like London. That’s such a bull story and I don’t know anyone from Paris. I’ve been in recuperation and Bryan’s my witness. Now that we’ve cleared up everything, can we go now?

    Officer Wendell is silent.

    Officer Wendell:
    Yes. You’re free to go but I don’t want to see you in here again.

    Nan:
    Clear as a bell but I’d look out for the liars who will try to prosecute me.

    Officer Wendell’s partner takes the two out of the interrogation room to leave him alone to think. His partner returns to talk to him.

    Officer:
    What do you think?

    Officer Wendell:
    I never know what to think with her. Her stories always check out. We have to find Blake Hammerton because if there’s evidence of him breaking and entering, then he could be in big trouble.

    Across town at the bar of The River Teal, Blake celebrates his victory alone.

    Blake:
    (to the bartender)
    Another glass of the good stuff please.

    The bartender nods and hands him a champagne flute. Before Blake can take a sip, Marli sits next to him.

    Marli:
    (to Blake)
    Wow you look like you’re celebrating.

    Blake:
    I am. Can I buy you a drink?

    Marli:
    Since you’re in the generous mood I would love to have whatever it is you’re drinking.

    Blake:
    (to the bartender)
    Some bubbly for the lady please.

    The bartender pours Marli a glass of champagne.

    Blake:
    What’s your name?

    Marli:
    Marli Calloway and you?

    Blake:
    I’m Blake Hammerton.

    Marli:
    (star struck)
    Oh my god. You’re the president of the school!

    Blake:
    That’s me.

    Marli:
    I mean I heard of the name but I thought you were so much-

    Blake:
    Older?

    Marli:
    Yeah.

    Blake:
    Hey I’m young and I’m successful. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Marli:
    What are we toasting to Blake?

    Blake raises his champagne flute as Marli raises hers.

    Blake:
    To the good guys winning and to the bad guys getting what they truly deserve.

    Marli:
    Cheers!

    Blake and Marli’s glass clink. Blake takes a long sips of his champagne and shoots a flirtatious smile to who he was hoping would be a new friend. Before he could take another sip, Blake’s cell phone rings.

    Blake:
    Excuse me.

    Marli:
    Sure thing.

    Blake answers his cell phone.

    Blake:
    Blake Hammerton.

    Officer Wendell:
    Blake it’s Officer Wendell.

    Blake:
    Yes, Alan what can I do for you?

    Officer Wendell:
    We need you to come down to the station. The sooner, the better.

    Knots were tying in Blake’s stomach after hanging up with Officer Wendell.

    Later in the night, Alicia and Jace were arguing in Jace’s room. Will wanted to hear every word so he decides to walk upstairs to eavesdrop in front of Jace’s door.

    Jace:
    What is your problem?

    Alicia:
    My problem is that you seem to like two things, beer and boobs.

    Jace:
    I’m a guy. What do you expect? I just wanted to have some fun and if you want to talk about having problems, maybe we should discuss who you’ve been hanging out with.

    Alicia:
    Oh of course Jace. The world revolves around you so whatever or whoever I hang out with, has to reflect you.

    Jace:
    Damn straight. You’re my girlfriend. People are reflections of yourself.

    Alicia:
    Reflections? Maybe you should take a long look in the mirror or is it too blurry for you because you’re drunk all the time?

    Jace:
    Way to go. I love how you try changing the subject when you know you’re wrong!

    Alicia:
    Wrong? How am I wrong?

    Jace:
    You’re hanging out way too much with Will and I really don’t like that lesbian girl you’ve taken under your wing. God knows what else you’ve taken her under.

    Alicia:
    He’s a friend of both of ours and Sky’s a nice girl.

    Jace:
    You don’t think I know. I see the way he looks at you.

    Alicia:
    Whatever. Are you jealous?

    Jace forcefully grabs onto Alicia’s arm and pulls her into him.

    Jace:
    I have you! You got that? Me!

    Alicia slaps Jace across the face.

    Alicia:
    I am not your possession. You understand?

    Jace is silent. Alicia looks at him up and down. She then pulls his hair and pushes him onto the ground. Jace picks himself up and charges towards her but stops inches in front of her.

    Alicia:
    Hit me! I dare you.

    Jace:
    You’re lucky I’m not drunk.

    Alicia:
    That’s the only thing you hide behind but let me tell you, it doesn’t make you a man at all!

    Alicia exits the room. Will smiles with delight. He walks back downstairs to his room and makes a phone call to Sky.

    Will:
    I should be thanking you.

    Sky:
    Were they already fighting so soon?

    Will:
    It was amazing. Alicia just stormed out. She called him an alcoholic.

    Sky:
    She’s only telling the truth. All I did was say that how awesome you are in front of them. Jace was freaking out but he didn’t show it. I’ll see if I can find her so that I can talk you up.

    Will:
    Do tell me though, are you sure you’re not in this for the same reason why I am?

    Sky:
    Oh I am. I just want to do her and I’m pretty sure that’s why you want her too but I’m worried about getting back at my ex. Since you and I are such good friends, we’ll discuss the details on that later. You’re welcome by the way.

    Will:
    Thank you.

    Will hangs up with Sky and falls down to his bed. He could only think of Alicia until he sees Lenvy shaking her head back and forth out of disgust.

    After a long and tiring day of being arrested for numerous accusations, Nan makes her way back into her own room. Before getting the keys out, she notices that the door on the lock had already been opened.

    Nan:
    What the- ?

    Nan twists the handle and slowly walks in. She begins to scan the scene, until she sees that her room had been ransacked. Clothes and papers were everywhere. Without saying a word, Nan tip toes over to a kitchen drawer and pulls out a small, silver hand gun. She heard noises coming from her bedroom and knew that someone was there. Nan runs to the room and pulls out her gun for the intruder to see.

    Nan:
    Hold it right there scum bag!

    Nan notices that the intruder is someone she knows very well.

    Nan:
    (shocked)
    What are you doing here?
