Another layer uncovered with EnerNext and Sheryl and Jordan's plans. Nick now holding all the cards, just as smug as he wants to be...I wonder what HIS agenda is. Nice exchange between Hope and Aiden. I can see Aiden softening toward Hope, and I like that he didn't give all the way in right now. Saving some for later. I see a softer Theresa than we see on the TV version. A deeper character here. And Nicole getting ready to cover up her lies with Eric. Anne Milbauer bit off more than she could chew perhaps with the info she's holding.

You knocked it out the park again!! Loved the scene with the kids...very cute. Your narration goes so perfect with your dialogue. You capture the character's emotions every time, and you narrate in such a way that you still let the characters tell us what the story is. (Sami/EJ/Abigail scenes, Laura/Jennifer) Just brilliant!! You went back into the history archives with Marlena's rape, and it's great that she opened up to Will after all the times he's opened up to her. And you are setting up Laura's return to Salem to assist with Sami.. Great episode!!!

John: Leave your mom and I alone so we can talk. Gregory: So yo can lie to her! I’m not gonna let you. Sharlene walks past John and up to Gregory. Sharlene: Honey you look hungry.

Sharlene: Your father’s not gonna hurt me, and I would like to speak to him alone. I’ll be fine. Go ahead. Gregory shoots a mean look to John over Sharlene’s shoulder, and looks back at Sharlene, and kisses her on her left cheek. Gregory: I’ll be back. Sharlene: Thank you. Gregory shuts the door. Sharlene turns toward John, sighs, and folds her arms. John: He thinks I’m going to hurt you and that’s the last thing I wanna do. Sharlene: I know. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOVE MANSION - Jack and Toni are at the front door, and Michael opens it. Michael: Jack, Toni. Jack: May we come in? Donna meets them in the foyer. Donna: Detective Snyder. Lieutenant Burrell. Have you found out who burned my club down? Toni: We’re working on that. Michael: Why not? You must have some leads. Donna: I worked hard to get that club back up and running, and someone just set it on fire. Jack: We’re not here about that. Michael: Well I know this can’t be a social call, so what other police business could you have? Someone rings the doorbell, and Michael answers it. Michael: Etta Mae. What are you doing here? Etta Mae: I’m sorry, but they told me I could find my daughter here. Toni approaches them. Michael goes back to Donna’s side. Toni: Mom? Etta Mae: I need to talk to you...in private.

Toni: What is going on? Etta Mae: I wouldn’t come to Bay City unless it was important. Toni: Mom...what is it? Etta Mae: Keneisha didn’t come home last night. Toni: Did you guys fight? Etta Mae: We argued about her coming to school here. She left the house in a tizzy but she never came back. Toni: She’s not at a friend’s house or anything. Etta Mae: I called her cell phone and it goes to voicemail. Toni: Give her some time. Etta Mae: Something’s wrong Toni! Something happened to her. I can feel it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIMOUSINE - Rachel and Carl are in the backseat. Carl: You’ve been awfully quiet. Rachel: Thinking about our son. Carl: It’s for his own protection that he didn’t know where you took me. Rachel: I didn’t want to lie to him Carl, but I’m not sure if he’s going to understand that. Carl: We’ll make him understand. He couldn’t know that I was in Monticello. The driver suddenly stops the car and they hear a banging on the passenger’s side window. Rachel: What is that? Carl presses the button to let the window down and they both get a big shock. It’s Michele, but they don’t know that she’s recovered her memories. Rachel: Oh my God. Carl: The girl from the clinic. Michele: Mr. and Mrs. Hutchins please. You gotta help me! We’ve been in an accident. CAMERA PAN ON MICHELE...SLOW FADE TO NEW OPENING. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- PART 2 John: Everything I’ve done is because I love you. Sharlene: But you can’t protect me from everything. You can’t keep the truth from your wife. Isn’t that what destroyed our marriage twenty years ago? John: I remember that every single day; how Gregory and I tried to move on when we thought you died in that explosion on the lake; how you fought your way back to us, and I threw it all away by having an affair. John moves closer to Sharlene. John: You, Gregory, Josie, you all mean the world to me. I never wanna lose you again. After Kelsey, and even Felicia, you are the only woman I love. Sharlene: If that’s true, John, you will tell me why Gregory is so angry at you. It hurts me to see you guys at each other’s throats. John: You wanna know why Gregory’s mad? I’ll tell you. We were looking for Michael. Sharlene: We? Michael? What? John: I saw one of my mother’s diaries when Gregory and I went to see her, and it said something about twins. Sharlene (listening intently and curiously): Go on. John: She had letters dated 1996. Sharlene: Letters from whom? Michael? John: No...Martin. Michael’s identical twin brother. Sharlene: What? So the guy that was here; the guy I dated...wasn’t Michael? Oh my God. John: He was the one who died in the car crash with Shane Roberts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gregory is outside of Sharlene’s room as if he’s standing guard, and Mitch approaches him. Gregory: Mitch. Mitch: Gregory. Where’s your mother? Gregory: She’s in here. Mitch: I just wanted to see how she was doing. Gregory: I’m glad you came, but she wanted to talk my dad alone. Mitch: Well then I’ll come back later. Gregory: No. I think it’s the perfect time for you to stay. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sharlene: So if Martin was the one who died, where’s Michael? John: He’s alive. Sharlene: And who was helping you look for him? No…that’s why Gregory is angry. That’s why he keeps saying that he doesn’t you to hurt me. Gregory and Mitch open the door. Sharlene: Felicia was helping you wasn’t she? Mitch walks right up to John, and Gregory follows. Mitch: Helping you? Do what? John: I’m having a private conversation with my wife. Mitch: But my wife’s name came up, so now it’s my business. John: What the hell are you even doing here Mitch? Mitch: I came to see Sharlene. John: You came to see Sharlene? Why? Mitch: She’s a friend. John: A friend? Sharlene you care to explain? Gregory: Are you serious right now dad? Don’t try to turn this around! After all the times I’ve seen you and Felicia together? Sharlene: What? Gregory: Yeah mom it’s true. Every time I turned around, I see dad and Felicia together. John: We were looking for Michael. Gregory: So what was that at the apartment? Mitch they were at your apartment...hugging. Mitch and Sharlene are shocked, and Mitch turns to his attention to John. Mitch: What the hell? You’re having an affair with my wife again? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Donna: Why did you come all the way over here to talk to me about daddy? Jack takes out a picture of Karen, the nurse working for Reginald, shows Donna, and Michael takes a look. Donna: Who is this? Jack: Karen Pierce, at least that’s the name she goes by. Michael: What does she have to do with Reginald? Jack: Her real name is Margaret Allen. She worked for Jordan Stark. Donna: Jordan Stark? You mean that guy who was the head of the Lumina Foundation. He cured me of my aphasia when I couldn’t talk. Michael: I still don’t get the connection between Reginald and this woman. Jack: This woman...works for him. Donna: Works for him? You talk as if he’s still... Jack: That’s what I came to tell you. The Lumina Foundation saved his life, and your father took over the organization. Michael: What are you saying? That my family’s in danger? Jack: We’re doing everything we can get Reginald. The key to getting him is getting Margaret. Michael: Well you better pray I don’t get him first. I’m not gonna let the people I love live in fear of Reginald Love. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OUTSIDE - It’s dark and a white mist is evaporating from the grass as Rachel, Carl, and Michele come to the spot where Lisa’s car crashed. Michele looks inside… Michele: No. No she was…she was...she was right here. Mrs. Hutchins she was right there. Rachel: You’re talking about Lisa? Carl: I’ll call 9-1-1. Michele: She was right here on the driver’s side. She’s gone. She wasn’t even conscious. Where is she? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROOM - Lisa is lying unconscious in a bed when Karen walks up to her, and leans over to Lisa’s face. Karen: I told him you wouldn’t get far. Suddenly someone bangs on the door and yells "Open up, Monticello Police!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Toni: I think you’re overreacting. Maybe she needs some time to cool off. Etta Mae: Well you know she can’t come here because…. Toni: I know, but what more can we really do? Etta Mae: First we gotta get her back home. Toni’s gets and reads a text, and it has a picture of K.C. Burrell tied up and a message that reads: “If you want to see your daughter again, you will do as I ask.”. Toni: Oh my God. Etta Mae: Was that Keneisha? Toni shows Etta Mae the text. Etta Mae: Oh no! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile at the CAVANAUGH CLINIC/LUMINA FOUNDATION, Reginald takes the battery out of his cell phone, and looks at his tied up KC Burrell, who is struggling to free herself.

She’s responsible for the break up of my marriage to Silas. She’s lucky I didn’t do worse. Madeline: Look we’re getting off focus here.

Brad: Definitely. They kiss again and Felix looks away. Brad and Felix watch Lucas walk off and Brad turns to Felix. Brad: Did that bother you? Felix: No...no why? You two are together now. Brad: Because you want it to be you that I’m kissing. Felix: Get over yourself Brad. Brad: Come on, it’s the truth. After everything I did to prove myself to you; after all the hoops I had to jump through so you could consider me worthy, you still put others first. Whether it was Sabrina, or your lofty moral code, I could never measure up. Felix: You helped Britt pass off Dante and Lulu’s baby as hers. I’m sorry I have a hard time getting past that. Brad: Lucas didn’t. You see he doesn’t judge me, or look down on me because I made a mistake. He forgave me for it, and we found our way to each other. Felix: Are you tryin’ to throw your relationship in my face? Brad, thrown by Felix’s question, regroups... Brad: No. Lucas...is the best choice I could possibly have made. Felix: It sounds like you chose him because you couldn’t have me, and if that’s the case, it’s not gonna last very long. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sebastian: Oh you finally decide to show up mom? Nina: You’re being very disrespectful and you’re gonna stop! Madeline: You see what I have to go through Nina. Sebastian: Gram you don’t care as you long as you can spend my money. Nina: Enough!

I’m going to my room. Nina: You can rest, but when you wake up, you’re gonna pack your things. Sebastian: What is that supposed to mean?

Nina: I’m taking you back to Port Charles. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Duke confront Dr. Obrecht, with Anna at his side, and Britt next to her mother. Dr. Obrecht: I’m playing a game? Why don’t you ask your girlfriend? She won’t tell me where Cesar is. Duke: You’re gonna use the memory of our dead child as leverage. You’re a sick woman. Anna: Faison hurt a lot of people. He terrorized me and my loved ones for years. He’s where he belongs. Dr. Obrecht: And where is zat? Anna: Wouldn’t you like to know? Britt: I can’t listen to this, and besides, I’m hungry. Britt walks into Kelly’s and leaves Anna, Duke and Obrecht outside. Dr. Obrecht: And wouldn’t you like to know where your child is? Duke grabs Obrecht forcefully by her arm, and Anna turns away... Duke: Do you know who you’re dealing with? I will snap you like a twig. You come near anyone that Anna and I care about, you’re gonna deal with me, you understand? Dr. Obrecht: Did you hear Zat Commissioner Devane? Anna turns back around to face them as Duke releases his grip on Obrecht. Anna: No actually I didn’t. Dr. Obrecht: Zu sink I’m scared of you?

I forget if Daniel already came to Avery to confront her about getting Daisy out of jail. I think she did because the conversation turned into an argument. Keemo and Gloria's scenes were heartfelt and I like seeing Gloria's conflict. I see you are about to take Jack and Nikki in different directions. And you touched on Daniel and Daisy's history.

As long as Sharlene gets therapy she’s not held responsible for poisoning Reginald. Steven: Even though he’s dead, I still feel obligated to report it. Jack: Are you talking about your great grandfather? Steven: Yes. He killed Evan Frame. I know there’s nothing you can do about it. Jack: I guess we can add that to list of his charges. Steven: Yeah he kidnapped my sister Bridget, but you can’t charge a dead man right? Jack: We went to the morgue, and the body that was on the slab was fake. Listen you can’t say anything to anyone about this. Steven: About what? Jack: We have reason to believe that Reginald’s still alive, and as long as he’s out there, your family’s in danger.

Nick's head is getting big...he's gotta be knocked down a peg or two We finally see why Theresa hates Jennifer...good show of that JJ's reaction to Liam was realistic, and you've added another twist to that story by having Liam pull back from Jennifer...now I'm wondering what his deal is. And Abigail working at Countess W with Sami...whoa nelly!! I see everything being set up...good episode

Whoops Sheryl...someone got the device... And yes EJ and Sami's scenes were very heart wrenching. As always, you capture the character of Victor Kiriakis and Brady. Tyler is very interesting (mostly because you've cast Jerry VerDorn to play him lol).. And Billie seems like she might be falling a bit for Daniel.. Good show!!

GENERAL HOSPITAL 7 MAXIE’S APARTMENT – Nathan walks in and sees Levi, who is sitting on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table, and on his laptop. Levi: Hey mate. You want a veggie burger? Nathan: I AM hungry, but on second thought you probably poisoned it. I’ll pass. Levi: How long are you gonna be this way toward me? Nathan: Something’s not right about you, and when I find out what it is, Maxie’s gonna know. Levi: Look all you want. You’re not gonna find anything. Nathan notices something on Levi’s laptop.

Don’t you think she deserves it? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OUTSIDE OF PATRICK’S HOUSE – Patrick is about to kiss Britt, and they hear Robin and Emma approach the door. They look around and see empty beer cans and two pizza boxes scattered across the living room. Robin is about to open the door but Emma stops her after Emma looks inside her pink book bag. Emma: Mommy we can’t go in yet. Robin: Why not honey? You wanted to see your dad. Emma: I forgot my gift for him. Robin checks Emma’s bag and realizes that Emma’s right. Robin: I guess we’ll have to go and see if it’s in the car. Meanwhile, Patrick looks around and realizes that Robin was bringing Emma over to see him and scrambles to make the place presentable. Patrick: Did you park out front? Britt: No around the corner. Patrick: Go out the back. You'll get to your car quicker. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AT KELLY’S…Anna and Duke sit at one of the tables over a meal. Duke takes a bite of his sandwich and looks at Anna. Duke: This is delicious. I see why Heather Webber loved their BLTs. They’re the best. Anna doesn’t answer and snaps out of her proverbial trance. Duke: Sweetheart? Is something on your mind? Anna flashes back to Dr. Obrecht telling her that Anna’s child that she supposedly lost in the elevator fall is still alive. Anna: Yes. As a matter of fact there is. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- QUARTERMAINE MANSION – Tracy is on the phone in the living room with her back turned to the wooden door.

Monica: I'm not gonna let you sabotage my son and my grandson. Tracy: You're delusional! I have no intention of trying to take over ELQ. Monica: Let's hope it stays that way, because if you try to undercut Michael or Jason, you're gonna have to deal with me. Tracy looks at Monica and busts out laughing. Tracy: You know you should do comedy. You are so funny! Have you forgotten that I've had the overwhelming joy of dealing with you for over thirty years? Monica: Anyway I came here to ask you if you've talked to Alice. Tracy: Noooo. Why? Monica: Did she have the rooms ready? Tracy: I dunno. Are we expecting visitors? Monica: Maya and Sydney are coming for Michael's wedding. Tracy: Can't they stay somewhere else? Monica: This is my house. Tracy: Here we go again. Monica: And they're Edward's great granddaughters, so they're staying...as long they need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nathan: She doesn't deserve you. Levi: Since when did you become her protector? Nathan: Because she doesn't see who you really are. Levi: Apparently you don't either. You bring nothing but negativity to Maxie's life. Nathan: Don't give me that zen, philosophical crap. You're up to no good. I'm not gonna stop until I find out what it is. Levi: Detective instinct? Nathan walks off to his bedroom while Levi takes a bite of his veggie burger. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anna: Do you ever think about it? Duke: About what? Anna: About what happened over twenty years ago...on the elevator. Duke: Olivia Jerome caused your accident, and we lost our baby. Anna: Well...what if we didn't. What if our baby's alive? Duke: Anna that's impossible. Anna: It might not be. Obrecht alluded to it. Duke: Are you really gonna believe anything that woman says? Anna: She's done a lot of things... Duke: Kidnapped Robin; shot Elizabeth; kidnapped Dante and Lulu's baby twice... Anna: But I never took her...to be a liar. If our child is out there, don't you wanna know where he or she is? Don't you wanna to find them and have a relationship with them? Meanwhile, outside of Kelly's, Dr. Obrecht is watching Duke and Anna. ------------------------------------------------------------- Patrick, Robin, and Emma are sitting on the couch looking at a drawing.

I miss the family unit that we were. Robin: I...miss it, too. Patrick: But you're...back with Jason. Robin: Right...I am. Patrick look we can't do this. Patrick: We're divorced because you had to save Jason. Robin: Look are you bring this up now with our daughter right in the next room? Patrick: I'm sorry. It still hurts. I should be able to see my daughter unsupervised. Robin: You know why I did that. Robin looks into Patrick's eyes. Robin: When are you gonna get help? As long as you are popping pills, I cannot agree to unsupervised visits. Patrick: Do you really think I would hurt my own daughter? Robin: Anything can happen when you're high. I will not leave you alone with Emma until I know that you've gotten the help you need. Emma re-enters the room. Emma: Mommy I got my purple one. Robin: I thought you didn't like it. Emma: I changed my mind. Robin: Go wait out in the front. I'll be right out. Emma leaves out of the front door, and Robin turns to Patrick, and her eyes start to well up. Robin: I mean it Patrick. Please get some help...before someone gets hurt. Emma needs her father, and I want you to be part of her life, but not like this. Not when you're high, and addicted to pills. Patrick: You don't understand. You caused this! Robin: Take responsibility for your problem! Patrick: Saving Jason was more important than our family. I always came second to him! Robin: I'm not doing this right now. Patrick: That's right! Do what you did all those months ago! Walk out! Robin walks out. CAMERA PAN ON PATRICK..QUICK CUT OUT....END OF EPISODE 7

thank you beebs!!

thank you all for reading..

Your style comes out more and more in this soap. Daisy's remarks to Victor were great. I see you are now setting up a substory with them finding out who the blonde bombshell is. Another layer to the bigger story.. Nikki is slipping into madness...good offshoot story to Katherine's death And I guess Daniel's is going to find out that Avery's a coke addict. GOOD EPISODE..

Great episode. LOVED the dialogue between Noah and Nick. Nick clearly showing his wiser, growner side and teaching his son about predators. Keemo and Mason discussing business was great and sounded realistic. Victoria, Nikki and Reed. A refreshing, serious but lighthearted, and hearty, family interaction between the three. Loved it. Avery and Phyllis dialogue was great, and I'm glad you gave Avery a backbone and not backing to Phyllis' bitchy attitude. Vic dropped the bomb on JT...surprise at the end.

thanks beebs!!!

thanks beebs

ANOTHER WORLD 168 Rachel and Reginald reach an understanding.. Written by: C. Nathaniel Richardson ALLEN’S SUITE - Allen is looking at the mirror, tying up his tie on his shirt, and Amanda watches him as she lies in the bed. Amanda: Did I tell you how sexy you look in that suit? Allen: Which one? This, or my birthday? Amanda (smiling): Well you know how much I love your...natural look. Amanda gets out of bed, walks up behind him, and rubs her hand on his shoulders and chest. She looks in the mirror along Allen’s side. Allen: You mean the same one that Adam had after Eve bit the apple in the… Amanda: Garden? Don’t kill the mood. Allen: Oh I’m not gonna let nobody take you away into some time machine portal. Amanda: You'd better not. I’d go kicking and screaming. Allen: So weird when you told me about that guy Jordan Stark and what he tried to do. Amanda: He wreaked havoc on my family. He left my daughter to die. Allen: I hope to meet Alli one day. Allen stops all freshening up… Amanda: You will. She’s a great girl. Allen: Makes me think of… Amanda: Your own daughter? Allen: I always wonder how things would have turned out for me if I was able to be a father to her. Well I’m gonna be late for work. Amanda: Okay. Have a great day babe. Amanda gets a phone call as Allen leaves. Amanda: Amanda Cory. Yes. You’re gonna email it to me? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GRANT’S HOUSE - Grant gets a phone call on his cell phone… Grant: Yes. Okay. Grant walks to the door, opens it, and there’s Christy Carson with a baseball cap on. Grant: Why are you wearing that ridiculous cap on your head? Christy: Duh. I didn’t want anyone to see me...not yet anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CORY PRODUCTIONS...Iris is packing her things in her office as she gets a surprise visitor...Cory, who knocks on the door. Iris: Cory. Come in. Cory: Guess you’re not gonna be here anymore huh? Iris (sighs): Nope. Cory: You seem a little bummed about it. Iris puts a book in a box, stops and looks around the office… Iris: Yeah a lil bit. Cory: I’m a little surprised that you would be sad about leaving here. Didn’t you just inherit a fortune? Iris begins to get a little choked up. Iris: I did, and don’t get me wrong I’m VERY happy about that. I may be a Spaulding by blood, but Mac Cory is the man I consider my father. This was the company he built, and I wanted so badly to run it, but I don’t need it. Cory: You can start your own company with your Spaulding money right? Iris: Thinking about it. Cory: You know I’m...I just wanted…to be here for you on your last day, just like you were there for me when we were looking for my dad. Iris: That’s...that’s real sweet of you. Have you heard from your mother yet? Cory shakes his head... Cory: No. Nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CAVANAUGH CLINIC - Rachel faces Reginald in his office. Reginald has revealed to Rachel that he is the head of the Lumina Foundation. Rachel: Did I hear you right? You knew Jordan Stark? Reginald: Yes I did. I knew what he was doing. Rachel: He caused a great deal of pain for my family, and you stood by and watched him do it! How could you? CAMERA PAN ON RACHEL...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grant: You act like the paparazzi is after you. Christy: I can’t take any chances. Grant: You were in a limousine with tinted windows. I’m quite sure nobody saw you. Christy: Come on Grant. I thought you’d be happy to see me. After all, I plan to live up to my end of the bargain. Christy gives him an envelope. Christy: I need a fresh shower before I go to the next place. You did set up my appointment didn’t you? Grant: Yes I did. What is this? Christy: This should help you get Jack Snyder out of the way, and you can get your beloved Paulina back. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paulina walks up the door of Iris’s office and listens... Iris: I can’t believe that. When is the last time you heard from her? Cory: A few days ago. Iris: I’m sorry Cory. I know she is your mother, but she is unbelievable. How could she keep your own father from you? I mean you must be worried sick about it. Cory: I am. I called Lizzie and she says she doesn’t know anything either. Iris: Well when she gets back to Bay City I’m gonna let her know how irresponsible she is. Paulina walks in. Paulina: That’s enough Iris! I’m not let you bad mouth Rachel in front of Cory. Iris: Were you eavesdropping? Paulina: Cory, honey, can you leave us alone for a minute? Cory: Um I guess...I’ll talk to you soon. Iris: Sure. Cory leaves and Paulina turns to Iris. Paulina: So you’re trying to poison Cory’s mind against Rachel again? Iris: Oh you all hold that crow up on this pedestal! Oh dear old Rachel can do no wrong! It’s sickening! She is not telling him where she took Carl, and you think that’s right? You’re just as crazy and irrational as she is. Paulina: Why don’t you just finish packing your things and get the hell out of here! Amanda walks in. Amanda: Not so fast. Iris: Oh goodness. Is this a tag team effort? Amanda: I’m gonna give you a chance to answer. Iris: What are you talking about? Amanda: Tucker McCall and Operation Loco. Iris hides her shock, and she wonders what Amanda might really know about it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reginald: Surely you know why Rachel. Rachel: He had my granddaughter Jasmine hanging from a tree when she was an infant. He tried to take Amanda away from us, and he left my other granddaughter Alli to die, so forgive me if I don’t quite understand why you stood by and did nothing about it. Please enlighten me. Reginald: I couldn’t risk being exposed. I had to lay low. Rachel: Why doesn’t that surprise me after everything you’ve done to your own family? Reginald: Touche. Everyone had to continue to think that I was dead in order for me to take over. Rachel: He had to be stopped. Reginald: Of course he did, but why should we continue to rehash the past? Rachel: Does anyone else know you’re alive? Reginald: No, and that’s the way it has to stay. I’m sure you’ll comply with that directive. Rachel: A directive? I don’t work for you Mr. Love. Reginald: But you do love your family. Rachel: I know the deal we made, and I fully intend to stick to it, but if I find out that you come after any member of my family, I will take you down, just like I did to Jordan Stark. Reginald: Safe travel home with your husband Rachel. You’ll need it to deal with your son. Rachel leaves and Reginald gets a phone call. Reginald: Bring them in. Two orderlies bring a girl into Reginald’s office. One is holding her left arm, and the other is holding her right as she struggles to free herself...to no avail. Girl: Let me go! Reginald: Thank you fellas. The orderlies leave, and the girl runs to the door trying to open it, but it’s locked. Reginald: Thank you fellas. Hello there. I’ve been expecting you. Girl: Who are you? What do you want? Reginald: Oh you should calm yourself. After all, we’re family. The girl is K.C. Burrell. FREEZE FRAME ON KC...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 168

ANOTHER WORLD 167 - Reginald explains the past Written by: C. Nathaniel Richardson MENTAL INSTITUTION - Sharlene wakes up and Steven is sitting over her. Sharlene: Tell me Steven. What did Janice see? Steven: I’m glad you’re lying down. Sharlene: How bad is it? Steven: Brace yourself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CAVANAUGH CLINIC - Carl is packing up his suitcase and Rachel walks in, and Rachel smiles. Rachel: Look at you. Up and about. Carl: I had no idea when this would happen. Rachel: I know that you don’t agree with the method in which I did it, but I had to save your life. I wasn’t going to lose you again. Carl: It’s okay my darling. Carl puts his arms around his wife... Rachel: I’ve already called Elizabeth. Needless to say she’s very thrilled. As I’m sure Cory will be. Carl: He might not be too happy to know that you lied about my whereabouts. Rachel: I did it to protect him. I hope he’ll understand it. Carl: How do you explain that to him without telling him? Rachel: That Reginald Love is still alive? I have no idea. Carl: I guess we’ll figure it out on the way home. Rachel: Before we go, there’s one thing I have to do first. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGINALD’S OFFICE - Reginald is with Karen… Reginald: Where’s Michele? Karen: I don’t know. Reginald: What do you mean you don’t know? Karen: I was going to give her a sedative, and I guess that’s when Lisa knocked me out. When I came to, she was gone. Reginald: Well I think you need to find her. Karen: I told you that Lisa is not going to get far. Reginald: What are you talking about? What did you do? Karen: I cut her brake cables. Reginald: What? Karen: She should be in a ditch by now. Reginald, to Karen’s surprise, grabs and squeezes her arm. Reginald: What if she had Michele with her!? Karen: I...I...don’t think… Reginald: That’s the problem! Karen: Mr. Love you’re hurting me… Reginald: You’d better get out there and find her, because if something happens to my great-granddaughter, God help you. Reginald lets her go just as Rachel knocks on the door, and walks in. Rachel: I’m sorry did I interrupt something? Reginald: No...the nurse was just leaving. Karen runs out and Reginald turns his attentions to Rachel... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile, Lisa’s car is in a ditch. Lisa is in the driver’s seat, still unconscious with blood on her face. Michele (formerly Marissa) is in the passenger’s seat. She was unconscious but has come to, and looks at Lisa is horror. Michele has recovered her memories. Michele: Lisa? Lisa wake up. Oh God. She then reaches for Lisa’s cell phone, and sees that it has a small amount of battery left. Michele: No...no signal. Gotta get help. CAMERA PAN ON MICHELE...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KO8AxqQ9Qg ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BAY CITY CENTER...Cory is sitting at a table and Bridget walks up to him. Cory: Hey Bridget what’s up? Bridget: I needed your help with filling out this class schedule for BCU. Bridget takes out her tablet… Bridget: It keeps saying that I haven’t selected enough classes. Cory (looking at Bridget’s tablet): You haven’t. Bridget: How’s that? I mean, do you see these classes? They’re grayed out. Cory: Because those are mandatory freshman courses. You can only choose the electives. Bridget: Oh. That’s it. Cory: Yeah, duh. Bridget: I wish I was more like Michele when it comes to these things. She was like super smart. Cory: That’s true. Cory’s cell phone rings and he looks at it. Cory: What number is this? Bridget: Why don’t you answer it? Cory: Amanda tells me I shouldn’t answer numbers I don’t recognize. Cory presses “ignore”, but he has no idea that Michele was the one calling him from Lisa’s phone. Michele: Cory. Cory it’s me. Please you gotta help me. Michele is right outside the car. She looks at the phone and realizes it’s dead, then Lisa begins to wake up, but she is weak. Lisa: Michele. Michele runs to her. Michele: Lisa? Lisa come on we gotta get outta here. You gotta get some medical attention. Lisa: Take my phone. Michele: It just died. Lisa: Go. Get some help. Michele: I can’t leave you here. Lisa: I’ll be fine. You go. Go home. Michele: No...Lisa...no.. Lisa gets weaker as she moves her head back and forth, then suddenly she stops moving and closes her eyes. Michele: Lisa. Lisa wake up please. Stay with me! Lisa! Lisa! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sharlene: Is that true? Reginald killed Evan? Steven: That’s what Janice told me. I’m glad you let her out. Sharlene: Wow. Steven: She said she saw my great grandfather strangle Evan with a pole. Sharlene: Why did he do it? Did Janice say anything about that? Steven: She didn’t go into detail about it, just that she wanted revenge. She wanted to atone for not saving Evan’s life. Sharlene gets up and looks away from Steven. She seems a bit dumbfounded. Sharlene: So she poisoned Reginald to death. I killed someone. Steven: You didn’t do this. Janice did it. You can’t blame yourself for this. This is a breakthrough. Before we can integrate you, you have to accept the fact that you are not responsible for Reginald’s death, or for anything that Janice did. Sharlene: Did she say anything about Carl? Steven: Carl Hutchins? Sharlene: Yes. She poisoned him, too. Steven: She did a lot of damage. Sharlene: You see why I was hesitant to have you bring her out. Steven: What else did she do? Sharlene: She stabbed Mitch and tried to kill your grandmother. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reginald: Rachel Cory Hutchins. It’s been a while since we last saw each other. Rachel: It was in your suite before you ate your poisoned food. Reginald: Shame. That meal was rather tasty. Rachel: I came to...thank you. Reginald: For what? Rachel: Saving my husband’s life. If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t be alive. Reginald: I’ve always had a great deal of respect for you Rachel. Even though you used blackmail to do it. Rachel: I did what I had to do to save Carl’s life. Reginald: I understand. Rachel: But I do have to ask you something. Reginald: What is it? Rachel: How did you survive that poisoning after lying there so long? Reginald chuckles. Reginald: Mrs. Hutchins, I survived a fall off a clock tower. Did you really think a few drops of a neurotoxin could kill me? Rachel: You sound like you have a feeling of invincibility. Reginald: That’s because I do. Rachel: How did you do it? Reginald: I trust that you will keep your promise, because you love your family, because what I’m about to tell you, you mustn’t tell anyone. Rachel: You have my word. Reginald: Do you remember the Secret Garden? Rachel: That sounds familiar. Wait a minute. That has something to do with Jordan Stark. He was trying to take my daughter with him, and I wouldn’t let him. Do you know about him? Reginald: Know about him? I know him. Rachel: I don’t understand. Reginald: I took over. I am the Head of the Lumina Foundation. FREEZE FRAME ON REGINALD...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 166

thanks MLC..more to come

Whoa..Victor is about to get out..uh oh...and I am looking forward to it... I could feel Keemo's conflict at the end of his conversation about getting revenge on Jack. Keemo is going to regret that, too. Scotty kind of turned the tables on Vandalynn, which I liked. Loved the scenes between Philip and Cane. Philip is a take charge kind of guy... Another layer of Sheila's plan unfolding....you know I am following that story.. GOOD SHOW!!

thanks MLC....more to come!!!

thanks MLC

The different emotions that Sami went through was great to see. From businesswoman, to snarky comments to Kate, to tormented "rape" victim. As always you capture the character of Nick, and his psychological torment/blackmail of Nicole, but I'm not counting her out. Percy is Nick's lapdog. lol JJs expression of doubt about Liam is (1) exactly how someone his age would say it (2) a great setup for future story I see your stories taking hold and they are very good and solid.. GREAT WORK!!

Love this whole episode. Billie must have gotten her hands on some key evidence...Nick has Nicole in a corner, and I liked how you did the scene and revealed what he knew right at the end. Kate and Sami's barbs are always classic, and you once again capture their characters..
