Mr. Vixen

That's too bad that JE couldn't make it. But I'm so jealous you got to see Robin Mattson. I LOVE her. I also like Kelly sullivan but think she's a horrible actress.

at "they guy who beat up Kristina Corinthos"! I'm glad you're looking forward to it! The Hayley scenes were very chilling to write, as well. You'll just have to wait until Monday to see what happens to Hayley Since Skye has history with AMC and OLTL, I thought it was important to address her time with both shows. It's just one more way I'm trying to bring the show together, and I hope it's working! I'm glad you all are enjoying it so far. Thanks, as always, Spencer!!

That really stinks. The only thing Garin Wolfe did right, in my mind, was bring back Monica and now she's gone again. Sigh.

You caught me - It's Tiffany.

I was waiting for your response to Jack showing up, Carl. You never disappoint! The mystery woman is not Opal or Wendy, LOL! I just googled "mysterious woman" to find a picture. It's not a blacked out picture of the actual woman, haha! So glad you enjoyed Skye/Blair today! I was dying laughing reading your comments about Lucas and Mateo! You are too funny. Thank you so much for your comments regarding Hayley. I'm so glad you are enjoying this story! Your comments mean so much to me.

I completely understand! Cole and Hope are not necessarily dead. Up to this point, I've left that up to the viewer to decide. I like to write "in universe" - meaning that I write it like it's a show that could actually take place on TV. So, if HM were a real soap, that would mean Cole and Hope were dead. It will all be addressed down the line, but for now it's up to you to decide.

Thank you!

Thanks hooked! If GH ends in the next couple years, I hope Jane will reconsider leaving Hollywood. I'd love to see her pop up on Y&R, maybe as Phyllis' mother or Nikki's sister Casey.

You'll just have to tune in Monday and see! It will be addressed next week, but in my story Todd is with Starr in New York. It's not going to follow the GH timeline exactly, though, because in real life, Blair is returning to GH next week, and that will not be addressed on Heaven's Meadow. Jack is going to have a very interesting ride ahead of him, and just because he didn't pay for his crimes in terms of the law, doesn't mean he's done paying for them in other ways! I know what you're saying about Tad - And I understand! He will get his time to shine a little bit as the season goes on, and his role will be expanded in season 2. Thanks Bright Eyes!

Haha! I'm so glad you liked the Skye/Erica scenes. I could just picture Robin Christopher delivering that line so perfectly. Erica/Hayley is going to be such an interesting dynamic to explore, and I hope you'll enjoy it! It's crazy you mention that because I was just thinking that! I was going to ask you, but I know how busy you've been with school so I didn't want to bother you! But definitely, I'd be honored to have you do that for the next season! I'm no editing genius like you, lol! I'll definitely get in touch with you when the time comes! And no worries, I know how swamped you are!

Thanks so much, Spencer! I like to do these mini-cliffhangers so that people are intrigued/want to tune in the next day. I'm so glad you're enjoying the Hayley stuff so much! It means so much to me. I knew the Jacqueline/Lucas stuff might be disconcerting to you but hey - Doesn't it mean there's a better chance for Jacqui/Brandon?

Heaven's Meadow Season 1 - Episode Fifteen "Everybody's Got a Dark Side" This episode features: Kassie DePaiva as Blair Cramer Angell Conwell as Jacqueline Erickson Vail Bloom as Brianna Emerson Ric Herbst as Lucas Erickson Andrew Trischitta as Jack Manning Christian Alexander as Billy and Robin Christopher as Skye Chandler Quartermaine _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Skye: Blair: Jack: Billy: (Inside Skye's club. She has just let Blair into the building, and the two begin speaking.) Skye: I was so thrilled to get your call, Blair. Frankly, I didn't expect you to accept my offer. Blair: Who said I was accepting your offer? (Skye rolls her eyes.) Skye: Why else would you be here? If you were declining, you wouldn't have felt the need to do so in person. Blair: Oh, don't be so smug Skye. It isn't flattering. Skye: If we're going to work together, you're going to need to be...less of a bitch. Blair: As long as you agree to do the same. Skye: So you are accepting my offer? Blair: Yes. You didn't leave me much choice. You're nothing if not an excellent business woman, Skye. Already promoting a club that hasn't even come close to opening. I didn't stand a chance. (Skye looks at Blair suspiciously, squinting.) Skye: Don't play me for a fool, Blair. I know you're here to spy on me. Blair: And yet you still offered me the job? (Skye smirks) Skye: I wouldn't have it any other way. Blair: You're a lunatic. Do you know that? Skye: I've been told. But don't get me wrong, Blair. I understand where you're coming from. Your personal life has been a mess these past few years. You don't want to set yourself up for another failure.I get that. And what better way to know if you have any chance of success here, than by spying on me? Blair: You don't know anything about my personal life, Skye. Skye: I heard all about the two Todd's situation. That must have been so challenging for you. You and Todd always had such a tumultuous relationship. Then he comes back to town with a new face, you reunite...And of course that was too good to be true. Then after what, ten years? You find out he isn't even really Todd, but Victor --a twin brother no one knew existed. Now you've been dumped by two Manning brothers. But you never know, maybe one of them will come crawling back. Blair: One of them is dead, Skye. Shows how much you know. Skye: So I heard. But is anyone ever really dead in Llanview? Maybe he's holed up somewhere waiting to make a triumphant return. No? Blair: No, Todd murdered Victor Jr. Skye: And from what I've heard, he was doing everyone a favor. Blair: Do you remember what you just said about not being a bitch, Skye? You best believe I would have punched you five minutes ago if it weren't for the fact that we're working together. Skye: No need to be rude, Blair. I was just trying to make small talk. Anyway-- (She is interrupted by a knock on the door. She moves past Blair and opens the door. Jack Manning stands outside, with another boy his age. Skye motions for them to enter.) Blair: Jack?! Jack, what are you doing here? Skye: I'll let you all catch up. Keep your phone on Blair, I'll be calling soon. (With a quick smirk, Skye exits the building.) Blair: Jack, what are you doing here? You can't just leave school with no notice. Jack: I took the train. They don't know that I left, Mom. I needed to see you. Blair: What's wrong? What is it? (Before Jack can answer, Blair notices the young man next to him for the first time.) Blair: And who is this? Jack: Mom, this is Billy. He's...my boyfriend. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ (Outside of the club, Skye stands in the alley. She takes out her cell phone and dials. She holds the phone up to her ear and waits for an answer.) Skye: Well, hello Allison. Tell me....How is Victor Jr. doing? _____________________________________________________________________________________________ OPENING CREDITS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgmDeqx4inI _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jacqueline: Brianna: Mystery Woman: (Inside the mystery woman's apartment. Jacqueline, Brianna and the mystery woman are seated in the living room.) Mystery Woman: How is everything going on your end, Brianna? Brianna: Perfectly well. Erica has been in almost every day this week. She'll be on set every day starting next week. Mystery Woman: Wonderful. And you'll be her assistant, as well? Brianna: Only temporarily. She's "auditioning" new assistants over the next few weeks. She's a bit of a diva, that one. Mystery Woman: That doesn't surprise me. We'll just have to move quickly, then. Jacqueline: What do you mean, move quickly? The plan-- (The mystery woman puts her hand up to silence Jacqueline.) Mystery Woman: The plan has changed, dear. (Jacqueline stands, angry.) Jacqueline: I will not risk getting caught, just because you're impatient. (The mystery woman speaks in a cold tone.) Mystery Woman: You'll do what you're told. Now have a seat. (Jacqueline sits down, visibly angry.) Mystery Woman: Brianna, you now have two jobs. Brianna: Which are? Mystery Woman: You will continue giving me regular reports on Ms. Kane. I want to know where she is, when she's there, and why. Do you understand? Brianna: Yes. And the other? Mystery Woman: A woman named Lindsay Rappaport is opening an art studio here in Heaven's Meadow. Her grand opening is exactly two weeks from tonight. It will be a very large event. Anybody that matters in this town will be there. You are to convince Ms. Kane to attend. Once she's arrived, we will take action. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Lucas: (Lucas Erickson walks down a dimly lit hallway in an undisclosed location. At the end of the hallway, he reaches a door. On the wall outside of the door, there is a keypad. He punches in a code, and the door slides open. He steps into the room. A man with dark hair, seen only from behind, sits in the room - tied to a chair.) Lucas: Well, if it isn't my favorite prisoner. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hayley: (At Hotel Heaven - A hotel on the outskirts of Heaven's Meadow. Hayley wake up in one of the rooms. The moment she opens her eyes, a searing headache emerges. She winces in pain. She attempts to stand from the bed, but finds that her legs are wobbly. She stumbles to the other side of the room, scrambling through her purse looking for the bottle of ibuprofen. She finds the pills, and places three in her hand. She moves towards the far wall, grabbing a water bottle from the minibar. She opens the bottle, pops the pills into her mouth, and takes a sip. After a moment, she notices for the first time that her clothes are scattered on the ground of the room. Looking down, she realizes that she is wearing nothing but a bra and underwear. Turning around slowly, she is horrified to see a man lying in the bed. After staring at the stranger for a long moment, she realizes what she's done. She instantly begins sobbing, and rushes towards the bathroom. She slams the door shut. Sobbing, she collapses to the ground against the door. She wipes the tear soaked hair out of her face, and turns to look at herself in the full length mirror hanging on the wall. She looks at her body, crumpled on the bathroom floor in nothing but her underwear. Sobbing, she speaks to her reflection.) Hayley: Who are you? (Hayley lies there for several moments. She closes her eyes and weeps, the feelings of self-loathing and hate taking over once more. After several moments, she stands from the floor. She pulls a silk hotel robe off of the handle on the wall, and puts it on. She looks at herself in the mirror above the sink for a moment, before opening the door and exiting the bathroom. The stranger in her bed is still asleep. She makes her way across the room. She spots an open bottle of vodka sitting on a table near the couch. She grabs it, and takes a large chug. Tears still streaming down her face, she moves across the room and slides open the door to the room's balcony. She steps outside into the heat. Walking forward, she climbs over the balcony railing, and steps onto the ledge.) _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for tuning in! Don't forget to check back MONDAY, JULY 16th for an ALL NEW episode of Heaven's Meadow!

Thanks Carl! It took me some time and work, yes. But mine aren't half as good as some of the ones I've seen! Yes, it is the instrumental of Survivor!

I'm glad you guys are enjoying the Anjie stuff. It's so fun for me to "see" Lindsay back in action, and Anjelica is a fun new character to write for as well. I'm glad you liked the Clint/Lucas stuff, too. I wouldn't categorize Lucas as a sociopath just yet. His story is going to be explained more, and will really come to fruition in season 2. Thanks for the compliments on the credits. Yes, there will be another opening that features the characters not seen here (Anjelica, Brianna, and Tad.) I totally see where you're coming from, and I agree it should have been fleshed out more. That's my bad. But don't worry, Skye/Erica will butt heads again and Erica will have her time to get angry.

As always, thank you so much for reading and commenting, Bright Eyes! There's definitely a lot coming for the newbies AND the vets! I like your idea about Hayley.

Thank you so much, Girl!

Heaven's Meadow Season 1 - Episode Fourteen "All Differences Aside" This episode features: Susan Lucci as Erica Kane Ric Herbst as Lucas Erickson Colleen Zenk as Anjelica King with Catherine Hickland as Lindsay Rappaport Jerry ver Dorn as Clint Buchanan and Robin Christopher as Skye Chandler _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Lucas: Clint: (In the WAVE Studios. Lucas is in his office. There is a knock on the door. He stands from behind his desk, and moves towards the door. He opens it and lets Clint Buchanan into the room.) Lucas. Mr. Buchanan, what can I do for you? Clint: I'm here to discuss Hayley Vaughan. Lucas: What about her? (Clint takes a moment before he replies. After a sigh, he speaks.) Clint: Something is wrong with her, and I'm fairly certain that you know what it is . Lucas: Mr. Buchanan, I-- (Clint cuts him off.) Clint: I don't have time for excuses, Lucas. I know Hayley has been having a rough time, and believe me, I sympathize. But I'm here to run a business. Lucas: And her personal problems are getting in the way of that, am I correct? Clint: You are. And if you know something that I don't, you need to tell me. The ratings for the show are already falling rapidly from last year, and Hayley's erratic behavior certainly isn't going to help matters. (Lucas moves to the other side of his office and has a seat behind his desk.) Lucas: Have you talked to Hayley about this? Clint: I tried. She had a complete meltdown, at the very mention that she take time off from the show. Lucas: This show is the only thing she has left. I'm sure you've heard about her husband's disappearance. Clint: And I'm very sorry to hear about that. Believe me, Lucas. I respect that she made this show what it is. However, that doesn't mean that I can allow her to go on acting like this. Lucas: There's nothing I can tell you, Mr. Buchanan. Your guess is as good as mine. (Clint is visibly disgruntled. He moves towards the door, but turns around.) Clint: I know you're very close to Hayley, Lucas. I respect the obligation that you feel to protect her. But if you find anything out, you let me know. Otherwise, very drastic changes will be coming. (Clint exits the room, and shuts the door behind him. Lucas stands from behind his desk and moves towards the bookshelf on the other side of the room. He picks up a framed picture of him and Hayley, and begins speaking out loud to himself.) Lucas: Consider yourself lucky, Hayley. I could have blown you, and your vodka bottle, sky high. (He chuckles.) Lucas: All in good time. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ OPENING CREDITS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgmDeqx4inI _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Erica: Skye: (Inside Erica's hotel room. Erica is in the bathroom freshening her makeup when she hears a knock on the door. She puts on her silk robe, and makes her way to the door. She swings the door open, expecting her room service delivery. She is stunned to see Skye Chandler standing in front of her. Skye doesn't wait for Erica to speak. Instead, she walks right past her and into the room.) Erica: I'm in no mood for you today, Skye . Skye: Trust me, I have no desire to be in your presence. Ever. (Erica rolls her eyes.) Erica: Then why are you here, Skye? Skye: Oh, don't roll your eyes at me, bitch. I happen to have a very good reason for coming to see you. Erica: Which is? Skye: It's about Hayley. (A serious looks spreads over Erica's face.) Erica: What about Hayley? Skye: She's in a very, very dark place, Erica. She needs our help. Erica: What are you up to, Skye? Skye: Excuse me? Erica: You don't honestly expect me to believe that you give a damn about Hayley, do you? Skye: She's my family, Erica. Erica: Oh please, Skye. The Chandler's aren't your family. Most of them try to pretend you don't exist. (Skye slaps Erica across the face.) Skye: Don't you ever talk about the relationships I share with my family, Erica. You know nothing, and it's none of your damn business. Erica: You are such trash, darling. It's sad really. I'm not going to engage with you any further. I won't lower myself to your level. Please leave. Skye: I'm not going anywhere, Erica. I came here to discuss Hayley, and I'm not leaving until you listen. Erica: What is it you think Hayley could possibly need your help with? Skye: She's drinking again, Erica. (Instant concern spreads across Erica's face.) Erica: That's not funny. Skye: I know it isn't. Erica: And what made you think that? Skye: A couple weeks back I ran into her at the Meadow Club, and I could tell she'd been drinking. I hinted to her that I knew, hoping that she'd come to me for help. But she didn't. And last night, I went to see her at her house. Erica: And she was drunk? Skye: She was trying to hide the alcohol when I got there, and she dropped the bottle. There was glass and booze everywhere. She is not in a good place, Erica. She's on a fast downward spiral, and I don't know how much longer she can live like this. Erica: You're certain that you couldn't have misinterpreted the situation? Skye: No, Erica! I'm not stupid! I've been there before. I am a recovering alcoholic. That is a battle I face every day. And I recognize the look in her eyes, Erica. I know you will, too. She needs our help. Erica: You're serious. Skye: Very. Erica: Then I'm willing to put our differences aside, Skye. For Hayley. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Lindsay: Anjelica: (At Patty's. Anjelica is sitting at the bar. Lindsay walks up to her and begins speaking.) Lindsay: You need to leave Viki alone, Anjie. Anjelica: Have you always been this nosy? Lindsay: Yes. Now, I meant what I said. Leave Viki alone. Anjelica: By what stretch of the imagination is my relationship with Viki any of your business? Lindsay: Viki is a good person, and I know what you're capable of. I'm not going to sit back and watch it happen. Anjelica: You know, we spent a lot of time talking while we were cell mates...And in all that time, you never mentioned that you had a good friend named Viki. Lindsay: I didn't say she was a good friend of mine. Anjelica: Then why are you so concerned about her? Viki: Just because we're not best friends, doesn't mean she deserves whatever it is you have planned. I know how you operate, Anjie. You're not exactly subtle. Anjelica: Your nosiness is really getting on my last nerve, Lindsay. Lindsay: I don't give a damn. I've filled Viki in on your entire past. (Anjelica looks surprised and angry. Lindsay smirks and grabs Anjelica's martini, taking a sip.) Lindsay: Yep, I know everything. The embezzlement, the fact that you didn't really grow up here, so on and so on. Not to mention your real name, the fact that your brother used to own the magazine...Oh Lord, I could go on all day. You get the gist. (Lindsay grabs her purse off the bar, stands, and turns to leave. Before walking away, however, she turns and says one last thing.) Lindsay: I left one key element out of the story I gave Viki. You know exactly what I'm talking about. And that can stay your little secret, so long as you quit The Banner and leave town. If you're not gone by the end of the week, I'll be forced to leak your story to the press. Luckily, I know someone that owns a major magazine right her in Heaven's Meadow. (Lindsay gives Anjelica one last smirk and walks away.) _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for reading! Don't forget to check back TOMORROW for an ALL NEW episode of HEAVEN'S MEADOW!

Thanks Carl! The parallels between Hayley and Skye are definitely there. That's what I'm aiming for, at least!

Thanks for reading, Bright Eyes! Ha, I guess you're right - the residents of Heaven's Meadow have some bones to pick with PV's finest. I'm so glad you are enjoying Lindsay so much. She's so much fun to write for. Your comments on the Hayley story mean so much to me! I'm glad you are enjoying it so much. Erica's involvement will be quite interesting.

Heaven's Meadow Season 1 - Episode 13 "Rock Bottom? Try Again" This episode features: Erika Slezak as Victoria Lord Banks Ric Herbst as Lucas Erickson Angell Conwell as Jacqueline Catherine Hickland as Lindsay Rappaport with Kelly Ripa as Hayley Vaughan and Robin Christopher as Skye Chandler _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Skye: Hayley: (Hayley is laying on the floor, sobbing. She is too ashamed to look her sister in the eye. Skye stands outside the window and is horrified by what she sees. Her mind races, and she realizes she should have come to see Hayley sooner after realizing she may be drinking again. She begins speaking in a calm tone.) Skye: Hayley? Hayley, it's me, Skye. Open the door, and I'll help you get cleaned up. (Hayley sobs loudly.) Hayley: Go away, Skye. Skye: Hayley, I know how difficult this must be for you. I understand that. But I'm here to help you, whatever you need. (Hayley tries to stand from the floor, but her legs are unable to support her. She begins to fall, and has to reach out and grab the end-table next to her couch for support. A sharp pain shoots through her arm. She looks down, and notices several cuts on her arm, from the shattered glass on the ground. She wipes the tears off of her eyes and cheeks, and brushes the hair out of her face. She glances up and sees her sister still watching her through the window. She gains her footing, and walks towards the door. She swings it open, but is unable to say anything before Skye walks through the door.) Skye: Hayley, I'm so sorry. I should have come to see you sooner, I-- (Hayley cuts her off.) Hayley: I don't need your help, Skye. (Skye is taken aback by Hayley's harsh tone.) Skye: I know we've never been close, Hayley. But-- (Hayley cuts her off again.) Hayley: That's right, Skye. And that's not going to change now. Skye: I thought that we agreed to start over. Hayley: Yeah, well I'm not falling for it Skye. I know exactly what you're up to. (Skye is visibly shocked by Hayley's comments. She sets her purse down on the end-table and walks towards Hayley.) Skye: What are you talking about, Hayley? Hayley: You saw that I was in a bad place, Skye. You recognized it because you've been there. That much I believe. But you didn't approach me because you care. You approached me because you wanted to take advantage of me. What better way to weasel your way back into the Chandler family, then to befriend poor, drunken Hayley? Skye: That is not true, Hayley. I would never do that to you. Hayley: Why would I believe you, Skye? You've never cared about me before, why would you start now? Skye: Because I have been there, Hayley. More times than you can count. And seeing someone in that place, it's awful. I see the pain in your eyes Hayley, and it breaks my heart. I want to help you. We are family. Hayley: That's never meant anything before, Skye. And it doesn't now, either. (Skye blinks back tears. She grabs her purse from the end-table and moves towards the door, stepping over the broken glass. She grabs the knob, but before she opens the door, she turns around and speaks.) Skye: I know what you're going through, Hayley. And I don't think that you meant the things that you said. But even if you did, I'm still here for you. (Skye opens the door and begins to leave, but Hayley begins to speak.) Hayley: Skye, wait. (Skye turns around.) Hayley: If you truly care about me, don't tell anyone about this. Let me work through it on my own time. (Skye blinks several times as tears drip down her cheek.) Skye: I can't promise you that, Hayley. (Skye turns around and exits the house, closing the door behind her. Hayley begins crying once more, knowing that Skye had been sincere. She turns to walk towards the kitchen, stepping right through the broken glass. She makes her way into the kitchen and opens the cabinet above the sink and removes a bottle of vodka, and a glass. She pours the vodka into the glass, and moves the glass to her lips. Her hand trembles as the cup touches her lip, and the burning of the alcohol in her throat evokes a feeling of both self loathing and numbness. She lowers the glass and pours herself another drink. Tears stream down her cheeks as she comes to the realization that she may have just turned away the only person who truly cares. The only person who could save her.) _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Viki: Lindsay: (At The Meadow Club. Viki and Lindsay are sitting at their table.) Viki: Excuse me? Lindsay: You heard me, Viki. You cannot trust Anjelica Moore. (Viki is visibly confused.) Viki: Who the hell is Anjelica Moore? (Lindsay looks at Viki for a long moment, confused.) Lindsay: I am talking to Viki, right? Viki: Yes, but I'm starting to think you may have lost your mind, Lindsay. You're not making any sense. That woman's name is Anjelica King. Lindsay: That may be the name she gave you, but it sure ain't the name I know her by. Viki: You must be mistaken, Lindsay. She grew up in this town. The people here would know if she changed her name. Lindsay: Yeah, she gave me that story, too. But I did a little research. Anjelica was born in this town, but moved when she was 5. Her parents are both deceased, and she only had one brother. In fact, he's the only reason she ever came back here. Viki: What do you mean? Lindsay: I met her in prison, Viki. If you must know. And when she got out, nobody wanted to hire her. Her brother used to own your magazine, and he's the only person who was willing to give her a job. She changed her name so that no one would know they were siblings. She obliterated her past. (Viki soaks this in for a moment, and then sighs.) Viki: What could she possibly have done that prevented her from getting any type of job? (Lindsay swirls the red wine in her glass. She takes a sip, and sets the cup back down. She sighs dramatically and begins speaking.) Lindsay: Well, long story short...She embezzled her last employer out of millions and millions of dollars. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jacqueline: Lucas: (Jacqueline is sitting in her apartment. She is sipping a glass of wine and browses a magazine. She looks up when she hears the door to the apartment opening. Lucas Erickson enters.) Jacqueline: Well, well, well. If it isn't my long lost husband. Lucas: That would be me. Jacqueline: Where have you been? Lucas: I've been staying at the MeadowView Inn the past couple of nights. I needed to clear my head. Jacqueline: A phone call would have been nice. Lucas: Well, the phone works two ways my dear. Jacqueline: I thought you might have been dead. Lucas: And that still didn't prompt you to call? (Jacqueline stands and moves to the other side of the room, refilling her wine glass.) Jacqueline: Well, I was going to. But then I saw Hayley Vaughan's tweets about how wonderful you are. So I knew you weren't dead, just a deadbeat. (Lucas ponders this for a moment.) Lucas: Hayley has been going through a rough time lately. Jacqueline: And it's about to get a whole lot worse, when she finds out that the only reason you ever took the job at WAVE was to ruin her life. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for reading!

Thank you so much Spencer! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I completely understand where you're coming from. Was it as common back then? Certainly not. But it's always bothered me that they de-Chandler'd Skye to make her a Quartermaine...Only to say she wasn't a Quartermaine either. I know it's a stretch of the imagination, but I just felt it was important to re-establish her as a Chandler, because I never thought that should have been changed. And, like you said, her backstory is a mess! Thanks Carl!

Thanks for reading, Carl! I understand your hesitation about Skye's paternity. What part of the story confused you? I would be more than happy to try and elaborate. I'm sorry you were disappointed. As for Adam, yes - you are correct. I think, in Adam's mind, he's tried to be the best father he knows how to be, to Skye. And he is now recognize that he's failed, in many ways. I'm glad you're enjoying Viki, as well. I always wondered why they didn't have Lindsay and Viki interact more, so I think that should be fun to explore. Thank you so much for the comments on the Hayley story. You have no idea how much that means to me !

Thanks so much, Bright Eyes! I've always loved Viki as a business woman, and wished we saw it more on the actual show. Don't worry, there will be a paternity test. It wouldn't make sense for their not to be! LOL at the framing idea...I'll keep that in mind! Thanks for the comments on Lindsay. You're right, she has no shame about her past, ha! Sorry you're not liking Skye's dialogue right now. Stay tuned, and we'll see If I can't change your mind. Thanks again.
