    FELICIA'S LIVING ROOM

    Mitch and Felicia share a romantic evening together. Felicia lies in Mitch's arms as they stare at the fireplace.
    Mitch: You know we should have done this sooner.
    Felicia: Done what?
    Mitch: Gotten back together.
    Felicia: I agree. Long overdue.
    Mitch: I always loved you. I wonder if I could say the same for you when weren't together.
    Felicia lifts her head and looks at Mitch.
    Felicia: Oh..and what am I supposed to say to that.
    Mitch: I already know the answer.
    Felicia: Is that right?
    Mitch: After we were married, there was Alexander Nikos, and Sergei.
    Felicia laughs out loud and lies back on Mitch's chest.
    Felicia: Sergei! That was totally a marriage of convenience.
    Mitch: You didn't love them like you love me.
    Felicia: You're so sure of that huh?
    Mitch: Yep.
    Felicia: Prove it to me.
    Mitch plants a kiss on Felicia.

    Cass is texting on his cell phone, and walking in, and he bumps into a familar person...Frankie.
    Cass: Frankie hi.
    Frankie: Cass.
    Cass: I was just texting back and forth with Charlie.
    Frankie: Oh...umm how is she?
    Cass: She loves it. You know I didn't want her to go away to school.
    Frankie: You and she were always close.
    Cass: Hey I'm...going to see to see her this weekend. Wanna come?

    CARLINO'S RESIDENCE
    Paulina opens the door.
    Paulina: Grant. What are you doing here?
    Grant: I was in the neighborhood and I decided to stop by.
    Paulina: Oh really?
    Grant: May I come in?
    Paulina (reluctantly): Sure.
    ----------------------------------------------------
    Mitch and Felicia lie in bed after having made love.
    Felicia: Have you talked to Matt?
    Mitch: Matt and Jasmine are having a grand old time in New York.
    Felicia: When is he bringing her here?
    Mitch: He hasn't mentioned coming to Bay City.
    Felicia: We can go visit them.
    Mitch: You know I don't wanna push. The relationship between Matt and I is just thawing out. He thinks of Mac as his father.
    Felicia: Honey you can't keep kicking yourself for not being there for Matt. I mean look at me and Lorna. We weren't always close.
    Mitch: It's not exactly the same. I just take every thing as it comes you know. I don't try to get more than I'm given.
    Felicia: He's your son, and Jasmine is your granddaughter. You owe it to yourself to be close to them. Have you checked in on Rachel?
    Mitch: Not in the last couple of days.
    Felicia: I think it's great that you're there for her and the kids. Especially since Carl passed away.
    Mitch: It's the least I can do. We're all friends, and she's Matt's mother.
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Paulina greets Grant.
    Paulina: Do you want some tea?
    Grant: No I...I won't be long...I just wanted to stop by and see how you and Dante were doing.
    Paulina: We're fine Grant.
    Grant: Paulina...
    Paulina: My son and I do not need you checking in on us okay. We're just fine.
    Grant: I owe it to you.
    Paulina: You don't owe us anything.
    Grant: I've treated you so badly over the years. I feel horrible about what happened with Joe.
    Paulina: My God Grant, for the last time, it is NOT your fault. Stop blaming yourself for his death.
    Grant: If I hadn't been so hell bent on getting that Senate seat...
    Paulina: Joe's job was to protect you, and he took a bullet in the process. I understand that it was part of his job. While I appreciate you checking in on me and Dante, it's not necessary okay. We're fine, and I don't blame you for my husband's death....so stop blaming yourself...okay?
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Cass and Frankie continue their awkward exchange.
    Frankie: I'm...not sure if Charlie wants to see me.
    Cass: Frankie you've got to break the ice. Deep down Charlie loves you, and she needs her mother.
    Frankie: Charlie blames me for breaking up our family.
    Cass takes a deep breath, knowing that Frankie's statement may partly be true.
    Cass: If you hadn't stayed away, Fax Newman would've tried to finish you off. We all had to think that you were dead until the police captured him.
    Frankie: Matt, Joe and Rachel saved my life. I think Charlie understands that I was in danger. What she doesn't understand is that you and I are not back together.
    Cass: Frankie...
    Frankie: I found out that Fax was shot to death by Gary, so I did come back to town...under an assumed name.
    Cass: Anne O'Donnell. That was you?
    Frankie: I had to see for myself how you were doing. You and Charlie had moved on. You fell in love with Lila. You got married. I had no place in your lives anymore.
    Cass moves closer to his ex-wife.
    Cass: That's simply not true Frankie. You are Charlie's mother. I'm always going to love you.
    Frankie: And I'm always going to love you, too Cass, but we're different now. We're not the same people who fell in love all those years ago, and we can't get together because Charlie wants it.
    Cass: But we love each other. Why can't we give it a try?
    Frankie: I'm not in love with you anymore. In my heart I've moved on.

    ANOTHER WORLD 184



    Jake and Vicky reach an important decision



    Created By: William J. Bell and Irna Phillips



    Written by: C. Nathaniel Richardson



    Consultants: A. Washington-Beeby, ML Cooks, DRW50


    LOVE MANSION
    Michael, Donna, and the McKinnons walk in. Jake walks in carrying about five suitcases. Michael is carrying two.
    Jake: Come on Michael you could have grabbed a couple of these.
    Michael: Jake I’m too old to be carrying heavy bags.
    Donna: Girls you can all go upstairs and get comfortable in your rooms.
    Bridget: We know where they are Grandma Donna.
    Bridget goes upstairs while Michele walks past everyone and looks around the living room. Vicky, Jake, Donna and Michael follow her slowly.
    Michele: Wow. It’s been such a long time since I’ve been in here. I forgot how big this place is.
    Vicky: Yes honey, and if these walls had mouths.
    Donna: The stories they’d tell us.
    Michael: Right...uh...where’s Bridget?
    Vicky: She probably went upstairs with Jake.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ROOM - Jake brings in a suitcase for Bridget as she sits on the bed. Jake sits beside her with their backs to the open bedroom door.
    Jake: My goodness you’re only gonna be here a couple days. What did you put in there?
    Bridget: A gal has to always be prepared dad. I’m sure you know this dealing with mom.
    Jake: What is a guy supposed to do? Carry your bags?
    Bridget: Well certainly I couldn’t lift that heavy thing.
    Jake: And I wouldn’t let you, or your sisters.
    Bridget: I still can’t believe Michele’s back.
    Jake: I got all...three of my daughters.
    Michele walks up to the door unseen by Jake and Bridget.
    Bridget: Come on dad. Are you gonna mention Lindsay and that whole situation now?
    Jake: Kiddo, whether you like it or not, Lindsay is your sister. I talked to her at the wedding, and....
    Bridget: No, dad no tell me you didn’t…
    Jake: I told Lindsay that I wanted us to be close, and I want you and Michele to get to know her, too.
    Bridget: I don’t wanna be friends with that lying bitch.
    Jake: Hey...
    Bridget: And you shouldn’t wanna be either, after what she, Stacey, and mom did to you.
    Michele walks in.
    Michele: Dad?
    Jake: Hi honey.
    Michele: What is Bridget talking about? Who’s Lindsay?
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    IN THE LIVING ROOM - Donna and Michael talk to Vicky, as Vicky plops onto the couch.
    Vicky: Wow! What a day!
    Michael: Like a rollercoaster ride.
    Donna: I still can’t believe...that Michele was the one who ransacked the living room. She did a lot of damage.
    Michael: From what you all tell me, Michele was never a violent person.
    Vicky: I wonder what Reginald did to her while he was nursing her to health.
    Donna flashes back to the shattered glass on Bridget’s picture frame, and Donna begins to secretly wonder about Michele.
    Michael: What’s on your mind honey?
    Donna: I was...thinking about what Vicky was saying. We all forgot that my grandson got married today.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    TOPS - All the guests are shocked, but Cass, Frankie and Felicia are horrified to see Christy, who has just stepped off the elevator with her son, Eric Stenbeck. Grant is nervously quiet, hoping that Christy does not tell everyone that he assisted in her release. Christy slowly makes her way toward Charlie and Kirkland, who are both staring at Eric.
    Charlie: My God you...work at the coffee shop.
    Kirkland: I knew something about him was creepy.
    Christy: Charlie, you look so beautiful. Congratulations.
    Cass quickly jumps in front of Charlie to shield her from Christy.
    Cass: Don’t you ever go near my daughter!
    CAMERA PAN ON CASS...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PART 2…
    Jake: Um…
    Bridget: Lindsay came to Bay City and lied to all of us. She tried to be my friend, knowing all the while that she was my sister.
    Michele: Our sister?
    Jake: It’s a long story honey, but it turns out that Lindsay Winthrop is my daughter.
    Michele: My goodness.
    Bridget: And she’s a deceitful lying little bitch, and I want nothing to do with her.
    Michele looks at Bridget, then looks at Jake.
    Michele: Well...I’d like to meet her.
    Bridget: Why? After everything she’s done?
    Michele: Everybody’s lied one time or another...right Bridget?
    Jake: Michele honey why don’t we go in your room and...get you settled.
    Michele: Dad I’m a big girl. I may have had a brain injury, but I still know how to get a room together.
    Jake: Are you sure you’re gonna be okay?
    Michele: I’m gonna be fine.
    Jake: If you girls need anything I’ll be right downstairs.
    Michele: Thanks dad.
    Bridget: Thanks dad.
    Jake: Michele, I’m so glad you’re back. I love you both...so much.
    Bridget: We love you, too dad.
    Jake walks out and Michele follows him. Bridget, also sensing something, quickly shuts the door behind them.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    LIVING ROOM...Donna is with Michael. Michael is sitting on the couch and Donna is pacing back and forth in front of him.
    Michael: Okay Donna what’s on your mind?
    Donna: Nothing. Whatever would give you that idea?
    Michael: I’ve only known you most of my adult life. I think I know when something’s bothering you.
    Michael gets up, stops Donna’s pacing, and rubs her shoulders.
    Michael: What’s going on my love?
    Donna: You...weren’t around when this happened.
    Michael: When what happened?
    Donna: Marley was disfigured in a fire, and they had to do plastic surgery on her face.
    Michael: You told me about that.
    Donna: I didn’t...tell you what happened after that.
    Michael: Well let’s sit down and talk about it.
    Donna: I’m afraid Michael. It’s happening again, just like it did between Marley and Victoria.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    DOWNSTAIRS...Jake approaches the foyer and Vicky meets him there. Vicky folds her arms as if she’s a bit nervous.
    Vicky: Umm...how are the girls?
    Jake: They seem fine. It’s been a full day. Kirkland got married, and our daughter came back in our lives.
    Vicky: Yeah it’s...it’s a miracle.
    Jake: I’m gonna….go.
    Vicky: So you...you’re not gonna stay.
    Jake: You gave me an ultimatum before we went to the wedding, remember?
    Vicky: Yeah I know, and you’re deciding to not fight. We watched Kirkland begin his marriage today, and you’re ending ours.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    TOPS
    Christy: Oh Cass, don’t you know I would never hurt Charlie.
    Cass: You’re capable of anything.
    Frankie approaches Christy.
    Frankie: Christy. How could you do this? Today of all days. It’s my daughter’s wedding day. And who is this guy with you?
    Frankie has a flashback as she sees Eric.
    (Episode 164 at Bay City Center)
    Eric approaches Frankie…
    Eric: Hi. Your name’s Mary Frances right?
    Frankie becomes a bit concerned and stands up to face him.
    Frankie: Yes, but I don’t believe we’ve met.
    Eric: I’ve heard so much about you.
    Frankie: Is that right? From whom?
    Frankie flashes back to the present, and focuses on Eric.
    Frankie: You said you...heard so much about me? Christy told you. How do you know each other?
    Christy: That’s...really why I came. I...wanted everyone to know.
    Felicia: Know what?
    Christy: This is my son. Eric Stenbeck.
    Jack Snyder quickly approaches them.
    Jack: Did you say...Stenbeck? As in…
    Eric: Yes. James Stenbeck. I am his youngest child.
    Frankie: My God. A son? You never mentioned…
    Christy: Douglas forced me to give him up when he was a baby.
    Felicia: I believe I asked you a question. What the hell are you doing here Christy?
    Christy: As if I owe you any explanation. I came to see Mary Frances. She’s the only friend I’ve got.
    Felicia: Now you’re really crazy. Jack, throw this lunatic in jail!
    Cass: She’s obviously escaped!
    Jack: I called the station. She’s a free woman.
    Cass: That’s impossible!
    Jack: She was released. She’s been free for a while now.
    Felicia: So what were you doing all this time? Planning to crash Charlie and Kirkland’s wedding?
    Christy: Again, Felicia, what is it that I borrowed from you, that I owe you anything?
    Cass: Listen I think you need to get outta here. Now!
    Christy: Come on son.
    Christy then makes eye contact with Grant as the elevator doors open. Kirkland notices the exchange between Christy and Grant as the elevator doors shut on Christy and Eric.
    Eric: Mom. We shouldn’t have done that.
    Christy: There was a purpose to that. Bay City now knows that we’re here.

    Allen: May I sit?
    Toni: Sure.
    Allen (sitting down): So when did you get back?
    Toni: A few days ago.
    Allen: Where did you go?
    Toni: Out of town.
    Allen: Why?
    Toni (smiling): Last I looked we’re not married anymore.
    Allen: Got a lil attitude huh girl? Must got something to hide.
    Toni: You’ve always had a wild imagination.
    Allen (smiling): You must have some skeletons.
    Toni: If you really wanna know where I went, I’ll tell you. I went to St. Croix.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE HUDSONS
    John and “Sharlene” (Janice) are in their bedroom. John is putting his jacket on over his scrubs…
    John: I’m going to the hospital.
    Janice: Do you have any surgeries?
    John: Two to do today. They’re gonna be long ones. You don’t have to wait up for me if I run late.
    Janice: I’ve got errands to run, too.
    John kisses her…
    John: Have a good day.
    John walks out and Janice goes to the mirror and faces Sharlene.
    Sharlene (in the mirror): What are you up to?
    Janice: I’m gonna pay a visit to my favorite person.
    Sharlene: And who is that? No…no you stay away from them!
    Janice: No can do sis. No can do.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    CORY MANSION
    Carl walks into the living room and sees Rachel.
    Carl: I just saw Amanda leaving.
    Rachel: She went to meet Allen.
    Carl: You know I have a wonderful idea.
    Rachel: What’s that darling?
    Carl: Why don’t we go visit Elizabeth at school?
    Rachel: Oh it’s too soon for that. She doesn’t need her parents hovering over her. Why don’t we give her some time to adjust being away from home?
    Carl: Well then let’s just go on vacation.
    Rachel: Where would we go?
    Carl: Wherever our hearts desire.
    Rachel laughs.
    Rachel: That’s a nice suggestion, but it’s not a good time right now.
    Carl: What’s holding us here? Wait a minute, let me guess, BLOODY Cory Publishing.

    -------------------------------------------------------
    PART 2
    Allen: Why are you being evasive about going on vacation?
    Toni: It wasn’t a leisure trip.
    Allen: So it was police business. Can you do that outside of your jurisdiction?
    Toni: I found out a lot while I was there.
    Allen: I’m sure Jack didn’t approve of it. Did what you find have anything to do with my grandfather?
    Toni: Now you know I can’t tell you about that.
    Allen (laughing): I can respect that, but you still haven’t answered my question.
    Toni: And I’m not going to.
    Allen: Well I’m gonna go meet Amanda for lunch.
    Toni: Amanda Cory?
    Allen (smiling): Yeah. We’re together.
    Toni: Oh…congratulations.
    ------------------------------------------
    JOHN’S OFFICE
    Felicia shows up while John sits at his desk.
    John: Thank you for coming.
    Felicia: I came as soon as I could. Anything new on your brother?
    John: I contacted a friend at the cemetery. He’s doing me a favor.
    Felicia: You’re gonna have the body exhumed.
    John: I was hoping to get a sample from it.
    Felicia: Would a DNA sample really help? They were twins. That wouldn’t prove that Martin Hudson died in that car accident.
    John: We gotta start somewhere.
    Felicia: We need something that definitely proves that Martin was the one who died. What else can we get?
    John: I have Martin and Michael’s birth records.
    Felicia: John whatever proof we need is gonna have to set them apart.
    John looks through the old newborn pictures…
    John: Wait a minute.
    Felicia: What is it?
    John (showing Felicia the baby pictures): Look at this.
    Felicia: That looks like…
    John: A birthmark. Martin has a birthmark on his neck.
    Felicia: And Michael’s picture doesn’t look like he has one.
    John: Well there it is. There’s the difference.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Rachel: I’m no longer at Cory Publishing.
    Carl: Your body isn’t there, but your spirit is.
    Rachel: Sounds like it bothers you.
    Carl: My darling, I will support anything that makes you happy, but I won’t support anything that comes between our marriage.
    Rachel: How is Cory Publishing going to come between us?
    Carl: I heard you and Amanda talking. I never thought that you would encourage her to work next to Iris.
    Rachel: I never thought you would eavesdrop on private conversations.
    Carl: You don’t even see it do you?
    Rachel: See what?
    Carl: You’re becoming obsessed with re-gaining control of Cory Publishing from Iris. You sold it to Reginald Love.
    Rachel: Reginald was helping Iris the whole time, and I’m gonna do what it takes to get the company back.
    Carl: Even if it costs us our marriage?
    Rachel: You’re being unfair. That company does not belong to Iris. It belongs to ALL of Mac’s children.
    Carl: Then let his children fight for it. You stay out of it. Wait a second, you’re doing this, because you’re still carrying a torch for Mackenzie!
    Rachel: How can you suggest such a stupid thing like that?
    Carl: Whatever I do, I will never measure to your beloved Mackenzie Cory.
    Carl grabs his coat and walks out, and walks by “Sharlene“. Rachel calls out for him, and Sharlene/Janice walks in.
    Rachel: Sharlene hi.
    Janice: What the hell have you done to him?
    Rachel gives a stunned look to “Sharlene”.

    AT THE FALCONERIS APT...Dante and Lulu bring their baby in. Dante is trying to gently rock the baby, Rocco, who is crying.
    Lulu: Hey can you get me his medicine?
    Dante (giving Lulu a white pharmacy bag): I wonder how long this ear infection is supposed to last.
    Lulu: Britt said it’s typical for babies. This should help. He’s been so cranky lately. Come on let me have him.
    Lulu rocks him, then takes him over to the crib and puts Rocco down. Dante joins her as they look over their son.
    Lulu: He’s quiet now.
    Dante: You’ve got that motherly thing going on with him. You rock a few times and he’s quiet.
    Lulu: It’s just the ear infection. He should be fine. You know pretty soon he’s gonna need his own space.
    Dante: He will.
    Someone knocks on the door…
    Dante: That should be ma. She’s in town for Michael’s wedding.
    Dante opens and Olivia walks in and kisses Dante on his right cheek.
    Olivia: Hey there! Hey Lulu.
    Lulu: Welcome back.
    Olivia: There’s my little baby boy.
    Lulu: He’s sleeping.
    Dante: Thanks for comin’ ma. You’re gonna watch Rocco for us for a minute?
    Olivia: Of course I would.
    Dante: Thanks ma. Come on Lulu.
    Lulu: Where are we going?
    Dante: It’s a surprise. Come on.

    Kiki is walking in front of Kelly’s, and as she opens the door, she hears a familiar voice, and she turns around.
    Kiki: Morgan?
    Morgan: Hi.
    Kiki: What’s goin’ on? Are you alright?
    Morgan: I’m okay. I’m just about to grab a bite to eat.
    Kiki: Um...uh...why don’t you join me?

    Morgan: I’m...really happy for you and Mikey.
    Kiki: Thanks. It’s great that you’ve agreed to stand up for him.
    Morgan: He’s my brother, no matter what.
    Kiki: Buuuut…
    Morgan: Nothing.
    Kiki: Look you haven’t been the same since your dad…
    Morgan: Banged your mom at the Quartermaine crypt.
    Kiki: I wasn’t gonna say that.
    Morgan: It’s okay. My dad betrayed me, and now he’s in prison. Where he belongs.
    Kiki: It’s still hurts though. My mom is in jail, too. She did some horrible things, but she’s still my mom, and I miss her.
    Morgan: I guess so. I guess...I do miss having my dad around. He’s in isolation. I can’t even go see him. I know I have my mom and my brother, but mom’s busy with the hotel, and Mikey’s busy at ELQ. I feel like I’m alone...
    Kiki puts her hand on Morgan’s when Carly walks in and sees them...
    Kiki: You’re not alone.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    EMPTY LIVING ROOM...Dante escorts Lulu in, and Lulu is blindfolded..
    Lulu: Dante where are we? Can I take this thing off yet?
    Dante: Yeah now you can.
    Lulu removes the blindfold and is a bit dumbfounded.
    Lulu: An empty house?
    Dante: Remember when you said Rocco is gonna need his own space?
    Lulu: Yeah but what does that have to do with this house? Wait a minute. You?
    Dante: This...is ours. This house.
    Lulu: This is...it?
    Dante: Are you surprised?
    Lulu (about to cry joyful tears): Beyond!
    Dante: I wasn’t gonna tell anyone until after Michael and Kiki’s wedding. We can move in after that.
    Lulu: Pinch me.
    Dante: No...this is no dream. We’re gonna raise our family here.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Levi is around the corner listening...
    Nathan: Maxie you shouldn’t sneak up on people like that.
    Maxie: You’re running a background check on Levi.
    Nathan: Something’s not right with him.
    Maxie: Because he’s environmentally conscious!
    Nathan: Because he’s using you to run some type of agenda.
    Maxie: You’re wrong!
    Nathan: We’ll see about that won’t we?
    Maxie: Call off the investigation! Or move out!
    Levi walks up to them.
    Levi: No Maxie. Nathan doesn’t have to go. I’ll leave.
    Maxie: If you’re leaving, then I’m going with you.
    Nathan: Maxie.
    Maxie: You and Mac need to accept that Levi is a part of my life, and if you can’t, then that’s just too bad.

    HOSPITAL
    Nina Clay walks up to the nurse’s station and encounters Patrick, who is looking at a chart.
    Nina: Dr. Drake. Have you seen Silas?
    Patrick (continuing to look at his chart): No.
    Nina: He’s gotta be somewhere around here. I need to see him.
    Patrick: I’m not his keeper.
    Nina: You know you could lose the attitude. I wasn’t the one who kidnapped Robin!
    Patrick: Your aunt destroyed my family.
    Nina: Well your anger is misplaced.
    Patrick: From what I’ve heard you’re all the same.
    Silas walks up to the desk.
    Patrick: Saved by the doctor.
    Silas: Patrick.
    Patrick: She’s all yours.
    Patrick walks away as Nina turns to Silas.
    Nina: Hi.
    Silas: Nina.
    Nina: Where’s Sam?
    Silas: She took Danny to see Jason.
    Nina: Oh. Do you think that was a good idea? I mean, you don’t want any old feelings to resurface do you?
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE QUARTERMAINES…Sam pushes Danny in his stroller into the living room, where Jason awaits. Jason runs up to the stroller, and picks up Danny.
    Jason: Hey little guy!
    Sam looks at them and smiles as they bond.
    Sam: I see you two are getting along well.
    Jason: I can’t believe how big he’s gotten. The last time I saw him…
    Sam: I know, but you’re here now, and Danny looks happy to have you back.
    Jason: Are you?
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE HOSPITAL...Britt walks into Dr. Obrecht’s office...
    Dr. Obrecht: Shut ze door schlotzy.
    Britt: Mom I can’t do this anymore.
    Dr. Obrecht: So weak! Zu have an attack of conscience now. You weren’t before.
    Britt: We could get in big trouble for this!
    Dr. Obrecht: Not if zu keep your mouf shut! What is it you Americans say about loose lips…?
    Britt: Well I’m out of it mother!
    Dr. Obrecht: Such a quitter Britta! I did not raise you to drop everyzing and run. You finish! You still love Dr. Drake right?

    PATRICK’S OFFICE...Patrick pours out the last two pills out of a bottle, and he downs them with a cup of water.
    CAMERA PAN ON PATRICK...QUICK CUT TO THEME SONG…

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    PART 2...Silas walks away from the nurse’s station, and Nina follows him...
    Silas: I don’t have a problem with Danny seeing his father.
    Nina: I bet Sam was all too happy to take him to Jason. Let’s see, she went to the Quartermaines right?
    Silas: What business is it of yours what happens between me and Sam?
    Nina: Because I never stopped loving you. You cheated on me with that bitch Ava, but I forgave you for it. I’m still here, despite what my mother did. My feelings haven’t changed.
    Silas: Nina I’ve moved on. I’m with Sam, and I want to spend the rest of my life with her.
    Nina: Well I would buy that if Jason Quartermaine weren’t back in Port Charles. I just hope you’re not fighting a losing battle. I should know, that those feelings of love just don’t go away.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Sam: Look Jason I’m glad you’re back, for Danny’s sake. He needs his father, and I’m glad Robin saved your life.
    Jason: I know you moved on with Silas, and that’s exactly what I would have wanted you to do.
    Sam: And besides you and Robin got back together after Patrick divorced her on grounds of abandonment.
    Jason: I really didn’t know what to say to her when she received her divorce papers.
    JASON FLASHES BACK TO THE CASSADINE LAB...Robin is at the desk reading the final divorce decree while Jason sits on the bed.
    Robin: I can’t believe this is happening. I remember him telling me that I shouldn’t bother coming home, but he just couldn’t understand why I had to save you.
    Jason: I’m sorry Robin. I feel like it’s my fault.
    Robin: No it’s not. I did what was right, and I thought Patrick came to grips with that. I guess he didn’t. It’s….really over.
    JASON FLASHES BACK TO THE PRESENT…
    Jason: She saved me, but we couldn’t leave the island until Helena and Stavros Cassadine were also saved.
    Sam: So you two basically spent all that time alone.
    Jason: We got closer.
    JASON FLASHES BACK TO THE CASSADINE LAB AGAIN…Robin is reading another paper..
    Robin: Full custody of Emma? How could he do this to me? I’m coming back! I came back before!
    Jason: I…I don’t know what to say.
    Robin (crying): How could he take my daughter from me?
    Jason holds Robin close to his chest as she cries.
    Robin: Now I know we don’t have a marriage. We never did. He just doesn’t understand the bond that you and I have. I would move heaven and earth to save you. I did it twice, and I don’t regret it. You’re the only person in my life besides my parents and Uncle Mac that I can fully trust.
    Robin pulls off just far enough. They look at each other as Jason wipes her tears, and they kiss. Jason flashes back to the present as he holds Danny.
    Sam: Wow. That’s...that’s the first time you told me about what happened on Cassadine Island between you two.
    Jason: Robin told me about you and Silas, and I wasn’t upset about it. You thought I was dead and she couldn’t tell you.
    Sam: It’s all in the past now. We’ve moved on...right?
    Jason: Yep...we did..
    Jason looks at Danny.
    Jason: But we got this little guy.
    Sam: The greatest gift ever.
    Jason: I can’t imagine being separated from him anymore. I can’t begin to think the despair Robin was going through when she got that custody notice from Patrick.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Britt walks into Patrick’s office and shuts the door…
    Patrick: Did you get some more for me?
    Britt: Patrick…
    Patrick: Please Britt...you’re the only one I can trust with this. You know what Robin and Sabrina did to me.
    Britt: What about your children?
    Patrick: You didn’t even like my daughter at first, and now all of a sudden you’re worried about her?
    Britt: You need to think about them before you get high.
    Britt looks into Patrick’s eyes….
    Britt: Too late.
    Patrick: Come on Britt. Please I need more. If you cared about me at all, you would help me. I need to numb this pain.
    Britt: Sabrina left Port Charles because you were getting high, and Emma is living with Anna.
    Patrick: So I don’t have anything else to lose right?
    Britt: And you everything to gain. Stop this.
    Patrick begins to seductively touch Britt…
    Patrick: You remember what we had right?
    Britt: Patrick…
    Patrick: Remember the shower?
    Patrick kisses Britt and Britt returns the favor. Britt reaches into her pocket of her lab coat, and takes out a bottle of pills.
    Patrick: I knew you’d come through for me.

    PART 1
    HARBOR CLUB - Donna gets out of the car amongst wailing sirens. She runs to go in, but a tall, heavy set uniformed man stops her.
    Man: You can’t go in there ma’am.
    Donna: What the hell are you talking about? This is MY club!
    Man: We managed to put the fire out, but you might wanna call your insurance company. This looks like a total loss.
    Donna: How could this have happened? Everything is up to code.
    Man: I don’t know exactly what could’ve occurred, but from my experience, this looks like it was deliberate.
    Donna swings her hand to clear the smoke from in front of her face.
    Donna: So someone set my club on fire?
    Man: Very possible.
    Allen looks around, and walks up to Donna.
    Allen: What the?
    Donna: It is what it looks like. My club has been burned to ashes, and someone did this.
    Allen: I came to get something for Amanda and I see this. Do they have any idea who?
    Donna: No, but I bet it’s the same person who sent me the gun, and texted me.
    Donna gives Allen a look.
    Allen: Wait a minute, you don’t think that…?
    Donna: How do I know that? How do I know YOU aren’t the one who did this?
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    MEETING ROOM - Michael, Matt, Paulina, and Amanda are sitting at a rectangular table.
    Amanda: The gang’s almost here.
    Paulina: Still waiting on our dear old hag of a sister. I went to see her earlier.
    Amanda: Are you serious? Why did you do that?
    Paulina: I thought I could convince her to do the right thing and go back on her demands.
    Amanda: Let me guess...she caved.
    Paulina: Like the Rocky Mountains. She didn’t budge.
    Matt: Hey Michael are you ready?
    Michael: As soon as Iris and Judge Anderson arrive, we’ll get this underway.
    Judge Anderson walks in fully robed and sits at the head of the table.
    Michael: Hello your honor.
    Judge Anderson: Are we ready?
    Amanda: We’re just waiting for…
    All turn their attention to the door to Iris, who is wearing a big, white hat, and a white power suit. She sashays to her chair, and sits adjacent to Michael, who is sitting at the other head of the table.
    Iris: I see everyone’s here, so what are we waiting for?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    STACEY’S APARTMENT - Vicky confronts Stacey
    Stacey: What is wrong with you?
    Vicky: I know what you told my husband, and you better stay the hell away from him!
    Stacey: So Jake told you?
    Vicky: He doesn’t keep anything from me.
    Stacey: Too bad you don’t return the favor.
    Vicky: You don’t worry about my marriage!
    Stacey: Someone’s gotta show some concern, because when Jake finds out what you know, it’s gonna be over.
    Vicky: I don’t think so!

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    Allen: Have you lost your mind?
    Donna: You are the only one besides Vicky who knows that I shot Reginald, and Vicky wouldn’t do this.
    Allen: Of course I didn’t do this. I didn’t send you the gun, and I didn’t burn down the Harbor Club.
    Donna: Look I’m sorry. I’m just at a loss as to who could be behind all of this.
    Allen: You need to call the police.
    Donna: We can’t involve them. They’ll start asking questions.
    Allen: Maybe we can use them to find out who’s doing this to you.
    MEANWHILE, in a motel room, Joy removes her black gloves, and flashes back to splashing gas at the Harbor Club and lighting a match to it. Then she makes a phone call…
    Joy: Boss, it’s done.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Judge Anderson: According to Mackenzie Cory’s will, the eldest child, is given control of Cory Publishing, which is now Cory Productions. Michael Hudson, I have documents proving that you are Mackenzie Cory’s eldest child.
    Michael: That’s correct your honor.
    Judge Anderson: I will make a ruling once you announce your decision and all parties agree.
    Michael stands up to address everyone.
    Michael: In the spirit of what our father wanted, which is that he wanted all of us to share in the company he built, so among all of his children, I have decided to divide the company equally five ways. Among Amanda, Paulina, Matthew, Sandy, twenty five percent each.
    Paulina: Great decision. Nothing for Iris.
    Amanda: What about Brava?
    Michael: I’m getting to that. I have also decided that Iris, and I, will each own fifty percent of Brava Magazine, print and web, but that Iris will run the entire operation.
    Matt: Michael, you don’t want any of Cory Productions?
    Michael: No.
    Iris suddenly stands up.
    Iris: I don’t want it.
    Amanda: What do you mean? You’ll be running Brava. I don’t agree with it at all, but I think it’s more than fair.
    Iris: I want nothing to do with Brava, and I don’t want any part of Cory Productions.
    Paulina: This is a bunch of crap.
    Judge Anderson: ORDER! Iris are you sure that this is what you want?
    Iris: Yes your honor. It is my decision to pull out of the company completely. Brava belongs to Cory.
    Judge Anderson: So I will make it official in accordance with the decision of Mac Cory’s eldest child, so twenty five percent for Matthew, Paulina, Amanda, and Sandy Cory.
    The judge bangs his gavel and leaves. Everyone prepares to leave, but Iris stops them.
    Iris: Aren’t you all wondering why I just gave up my part of Cory?
    Paulina: I knew there was something else to this.
    Matt: What is it Iris?
    Iris: I don’t need it. I’m tired of fighting for daddy’s company. I want my OWN company. I want to build my OWN empire, and now I have the means to do it.
    Michael: Now I’m curious.
    Paulina: She’s bluffing.
    Iris: This is far from a posture Paulina. I think I’ll call my sister Amanda to confirm it for you all.
    Matt: Now I think you’ve lost your mind.
    Michael: Amanda's right here.
    Iris: I’m not talking about Amanda Cory. I’m talking about Amanda Spaulding.
    Amanda: The Spauldings in Springfield?
    Paulina: I knew you were full of hot air!
    Iris: Looks like you’re the one who’s getting warm sis. Well in fact, now I have two sisters named Amanda.
    Michael: What are you saying?
    Iris: I...am Brandon Spaulding’s biological daughter.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Stacey: You’re not in control here Vicky!
    Vicky: It wasn’t enough for you to move heaven and earth to take Mikey away from my parents twenty five years ago, now you wanna take my husband. You were going around telling people that you came to Bay City to be close to your daughter, when in fact, you came to go after JAKE!
    Stacey: I didn’t at first, but I told you about Lindsay. I told you he was her father, and you kept it from him. He deserves so much better than that. He deserves better than YOU!
    Vicky: And you’re gonna be there to pick up the pieces if our marriage falls apart. You’re just gonna run to Jake, tell him that Lindsay’s his daughter, and voila, you’re one big happy family. You’re a delusional bitch. You don’t even have any proof.
    Stacey: As a matter of fact, Vicky, I do.
    Stacey holds up to pieced-together DNA test that she found in Lindsay’s wastebasket, horrifying Vicky.
    Vicky: What is that?
    Stacey: A DNA test, a 99.9% match between Lindsay and Jake’s DNA.
    Vicky: Give me that!
    Stacey: No!
    Vicky and Stacey begin to tussle for the paper.
    Vicky: GIVE IT TO ME YOU BITCH!
    They roll on the floor, both fighting for control of the DNA test. They both lose control of the proof, and it floats over toward the door, just as Lindsay, Jake, and Bridget walk in, and Jake picks up the paper. Lindsay is shocked as she immediately knows what it is.
    Vicky: Jake gimme the paper!
    Jake’s mouth is open in shock…
    Bridget: Dad what’s going on?
    Jake looks back and forth at Vicky, Lindsay, and Stacey, and he shakes his head in disbelief, and then slowly approaches Vicky.
    Jake: This can’t be.
    Stacey: Yes Jake, it’s true. Isn’t it Vicky?
    Jake: Vicky? You knew about this? No...no you didn’t know already that I was Lindsay’s father did you? ANSWER ME!
    Vicky (eyes welling up): YES! I knew.

    Kirkland and Charlie’s wedding day Part 5



    Created by: William J. Bell and Irna Phillips



    Written By: C. Nathaniel Richardson



    Consultants: aMLCproduction, beebs


    PART 1
    CAR - Rachel and Carl are being driven…
    Rachel: I wonder how she got away from us.
    Carl: We were careful.
    Rachel: We left her only for a few minutes.
    Carl: It reminds me of when you and I took care of Perry. He was an adventurous lad. We had to watch him every single second. If we turned our backs, he would disappear.
    Rachel pauses and looks at Carl a little puzzled at his mention of Perry.
    Rachel: Cory was a pretty obedient kid. Elizabeth was the wanderer.
    Carl: We’ll find Michele.
    Rachel: I have a pretty good idea of where she went.
    Carl: If she’s gone to Tops and tries to tell them who she is, nobody’s gonna recognize her.
    Rachel: Reginald certainly had plans to keep Michele away from the McKinnons, that’s why he changed her face. Hopefully we can get there before she does, so we can tell her family.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    TOPS - Kirkland and Charlie are slow dancing, as they gaze into each other’s eyes..
    Kirkland: Mrs. Harrison.
    Charlie: That’s me.
    Kirkland: How are you feeling?
    Charlie: Alive; happy; overjoyed. Today’s just perfect.
    Kirkland: Just one thing missing.
    Charlie: What’s that? That I haven’t thrown the bouquet yet?
    Kirkland: No. My sister Michele. I wish she was alive to see this.
    Charlie: Her spirit is here.
    Kirkland: You ready to throw the bouquet?
    Charlie: Yep.
    Kirkland: You gotta stand over there where my mom is.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Michele emerges from behind a large plant and decides to follow Bridget into the crowd of dancing guests, but stops when Bridget joins Cory on the dance floor.
    Bridget: I got that feeling again.
    Cory: The one you were talking about at the church?
    Bridget: Yep. It’s like I feel Michele. Almost as if she’s here.
    Cory: Of course she’s here. Kirkland’s getting married. Your mom, dad, grandma, grandpa are all here. Steven’s back in town. Michele wouldn’t miss this day at all.
    A dejected Michele backs away, turns around, and goes to the elevator. Vicky comes up behind her.
    Vicky: Hi. Can I help you? Are you looking for someone?
    Michele is seemingly frozen, as she hears her mother’s voice for the first time in a very long time, and turns around to face Vicky, and is shocked to see Vicky.
    Vicky: Hello? I asked you a question. This is a private party.
    Kirkland interrupts the encounter by tapping Vicky on her left shoulder. Vicky turns around.
    Vicky: Kirkland what’s up?
    Kirkland: Mom you gotta move out the way for a second. Charlie’s about to throw the bouquet.
    Vicky: Of course honey. I’m sorry I was just talking to…
    Vicky turns back around and no longer sees Michele. Vicky blows it off and goes back to her seat as Charlie takes her place. Some women, including Stacey, Lindsay, Paulina, Donna, and Amanda take their places as Charlie goes to where Vicky was so she can throw the bouquet.
    Charlie: Are you guys ready?
    The women scream “yeah” seemingly all at once. Meanwhile, Cory and Bridget are together.
    Cory: Aren’t you gonna try to catch the bouquet?
    Bridget: No. I’m right where I wanna be.
    Charlie turns her back to the crowd and counts to three. She tosses the bouquet backward, and Paulina catches it. Paulina looks surprised as the women clap for her. Vicky walks up to Paulina as Jack rejoins Paulina.
    Vicky: Looks like someone’s gonna get maaaarried.
    Paulina: Oh Vicky don’t be silly.
    Vicky: I think Joe would want you to move on.
    Jack: I agree.
    Paulina: These are so beautiful. I need to put these in water.
    Jack: That means I’ll have to take you home. Let me go call my daughter.
    Meanwhile, Donna finds Vicky...
    Vicky: Why didn’t you catch the bouquet?
    Donna: I certainly don’t need to catch flowers to get married Victoria. Have you heard from Tyrone and Marley?
    Vicky: Marley’s not feeling well so Tyrone stayed home with her.
    Donna: Right. Bed rest.
    Vicky: She sends her regards though.
    Donna: Wow I can’t believe I’m gonna be a grandmother again soon. She’s almost due.
    Vicky: Little Roman is gonna have all of his family there for him. His grandpa Michael, grandma Donna, Uncle Allen, Aunt Vicky…
    Donna: And what about Uncle Jake?
    Vicky: To be honest, I have no idea how it’s gonna turn out with him.
    Back on Cory and Bridget…
    Cory: Is that right?
    Bridget: Yep...that’s right.
    Cory: I’m...where I wanna be, too.
    They gaze at each other for a moment, then they engage in a French kiss. Michele re-emerges from behind the large plant and sees Cory and Bridget kissing. She is dejected...and angered, as the elevator doors open. Michele goes into the elevator so she can leave.

    PART 2
    Grant approaches Paulina, who is holding the bouquet.
    Grant: Hello there.
    Paulina: Hi Grant. Where’s your dad?
    Grant: He’s not gonna make it. His flight got cancelled.
    Paulina: Oh. I certainly didn’t think Spencer would miss his grandson’s wedding.
    Grant: He sent his best, so are you enjoying your date with Jack?
    Paulina: It’s not a date Grant. Just two friends going to a wedding.
    Grant: I saw you and him at the church. There’s more than just a platonic friendship going on.
    Paulina: Grant please this is not the time…
    Grant: I felt that way about you. I still do.
    Paulina: Grant---
    Grant: I love you Paulina. I felt so bad for you and Dante, especially after Joe died.
    Paulina: You don’t have to explain yourself.
    Grant: There’s not a day that goes by I don’t think about what I almost did to you and Dante.
    Paulina: That was a long long time ago. We’re both different, and I’ve forgiven you for starting that fire.
    Grant: You’ve always had a place in my heart, even though our lives went in very different directions.
    Paulina: I’m very grateful for what you’ve done for us, but I...I don’t feel that way about you...Grant.
    Grant: Paulina...please. Give me a chance to show you how happy you could be.
    Jack walks up to them.
    Jack: You heard the lady.
    Grant: I was having a conversation with Paulina.
    Jack: She doesn’t need you in her life, neither does Dante.
    Grant: And that’s because you’re the alternative?
    Jack: I’m not gonna let you hurt her again.
    Grant: Just like you’re doing to your wife?
    Jack goes face to face with Grant.
    Jack: You shut up about Carly.
    Jake gets between them to possibly prevent a fight.
    Jake: Look guys I’m not gonna let you do this here; not at Kirkland’s wedding.
    Meanwhile, Bridget and Cory walk up to Kirkland and Charlie.
    Kirkland: Hey squirt.
    Bridget: Congratulations. Both of you.
    Charlie: Thank you. We’re family now.
    Bridget: That’s right. Hey, Cory and I are leaving.
    Charlie: Oh no. Are you sure you can’t stay?
    Cory: I wanna be home in case my mom arrives.
    Charlie: Is Carl, I mean my grandfather, coming home?
    Cory: I don’t know. My mom hasn’t told me anything.
    Kirkland: So you’re gonna take my sister home?
    Cory: Yep.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE MCKINNONS...Michele walks into the living room, and goes over to a mantle that has all the family pictures on it. She looks at Jake and Vicky’s picture, then at Kirkland’s picture. She then looks at Steven’s picture and smiles. She looks next at a picture of her holding a book up with her old face, then she sees Bridget’s picture, and frowns. She then has some flashbacks…
    (EPISODE 13 at the McKinnons house)
    Vicky: She’s going to Harvard in the fall.
    Michele: Mom I didn’t decide yet.
    Vicky: Oh I’m sorry. She’s trying to decide between Harvard or Columbia.
    Donna: My scholarly granddaughter.

    ------

    (EPISODE 179 at the McKinnons)
    Michele: What’s going on? You guys keep looking at each other.
    Rachel: You can’t…
    Michele: Read? I can’t read? That’s impossible.
    Carl: It could be a result of your brain injury. You may have to re-learn.
    Michele: Learn how to read? I don’t have time for that! I was accepted to Harvard, now you’re telling me I might be illiterate?

    ----

    (EPISODE 12 at BAY CITY CENTER)
    Cory and Michele are at a table. Cory's hand is on top of Michele's.
    Cory: You excited?
    Michele: Yeah it's been like magic. I can't believe this is actually happening.
    Cory: Yeah. Me neither. You're going to Harvard. I'm going to Boston University.
    Michele: And we're going to the prom tomorrow.
    Cory: I've loved you since eighth grade.
    Michele: Have you?
    Cory: Of course I have. You don't believe me?
    Michele: If you give me a kiss, I might.

    ----------

    (EPISODE 14 - At the prom…)
    Michele sees the water bottle on the table, and grabs it before Bridget can take it from her. She opens it and smells the vodka.
    Michele: No. You got drunk.
    Cory: It's just punch. Bridget gave it to me.
    Michele: Bridget didn't do this...
    Michele flashes back to when Vicky told her that Bridget opened her first Harvard acceptance letter.
    Michele: Did you open the letter?
    Bridget: What are you talking about?
    Michele: My first acceptance letter from Harvard. Did you open it?
    Bridget: Yes! I did! You're happy now? You and mom must work for the same firm.
    Michele: Why?
    Bridget: Because they love you more than me! You're smart. You've got a boyfriend. What do I have?
    Michele: My God you're jealous! That's why you were kissing my boyfriend!
    Bridget: Now do I have your attention?
    (EPISODE 181 at Tops)
    Michele re-emerges from behind the large plant and sees Cory and Bridget kissing. She is dejected...and angered, as the elevator doors open.
    Then she flashes back to the present…
    She picks Bridget’s picture up, and looks at it some more. Michele’s anger grows as she keeps replaying in her mind what Bridget said (Now do I have your attention?) She screams throws the picture against the staircase, which breaks the glass on the picture as it falls to the floor. Next, she goes to the closet, gets a bat out, walks over to the door, and opens it. She looks to see if anyone’s there, then strikes the door with the bat as screams loudly, creating a dent in it. She follows that up by hitting the doorknob, causing it to fall off. Michele re-enters the living room, and hits the back of the couch with the bat. The couch falls on its front.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Meanwhile, outside, Bridget is backing up to the door as Cory holds as the two are unknowingly synchronizing their steps closer to the damaged door. They do not notice the door, and they do not notice that Michele, who no longer has the bat, hears Cory and Bridget. She opens the door slightly, and watches them.
    Cory: You’re home.
    Bridget: I don’t want this day to end.
    Cory: It...doesn’t have to.
    They French kiss, then they unlock lips as Bridget smiles.
    Bridget: My parents aren’t gonna be home for a while.
    Cory: Hmmm.
    They face the door and notice the dent, and the missing doorknob.
    Bridget: Oh my God.
    Cory: Who did this to the door?
    Bridget: Someone must have broken in.
    Cory: Wait.
    Cory pushes the front door open, and he and Bridget see the couch and chair turned over. They also see knocked over lamps, broken light bulbs, and broken glass.
    Bridget: Call the police. Someone definitely broke in here.
    As Cory takes out his cell phone and calls the police, Bridget slowly walks toward the staircase and picks up her portrait, which is still in the frame, in broken glass. Cory comes to Bridget.
    Cory: Police are on their way.
    Bridget shows him her picture with the broken glass portrait.
    Bridget: Look at this. My picture.
    Bridget then directs Cory to the mantle.
    Cory: Everybody’s picture is still up there.
    Bridget: Someone took my picture and threw it at the staircase. Why only my picture? Who would’ve done this? Who broke in here?
    Michele emerges from the top of the staircase.
    Michele: I did.
    Cory and Bridget, unknowingly, see Michele.

    AT THE BLAKES - A fully dressed and seemingly focused Felicia (Linda Dano) walks into the living room and grabs her laptop. Mitch (William Espy) greets her.
    Mitch: Headed out?
    Felicia: Yes I have a meeting at Cory Productions.
    Mitch: To discuss your movie deal.
    Felicia: Yes.
    Felicia does not look at Mitch. She looks around, and sees her bracelet on the table. She goes to grab it and puts it on. Mitch comes up behind and starts to kiss her on her neck. Felicia starts to slow down and enjoy the kisses, but she refocuses and pulls away.
    Mitch: Can’t your agent go in your place?
    Felicia: I told him not to. I want to discuss this in person.
    Mitch: Well...okay, but hurry back. I want to spend some quality time with my lovely wife.
    Felicia: Of course.
    Mitch: Good luck.
    Felicia: Thank you honey.
    Felicia leaves and Mitch goes to his cell phone and makes a phone call.
    Mitch: Hey it’s Mitch. Just checking on you. I know you had a lot to drink at Kirk and Charlie’s wedding reception. Call me back.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    HUDSONS HOUSE - Sharlene (Anna Holbrook) comes downstairs as someone rings the doorbell. She puts her cell phone on the coffee table, closes her robe and opens the door for Frankie (Alice Barrett)
    Sharlene: Frankie!
    Frankie: Hi.
    They hug each other warmly.
    Sharlene: I’m so glad you came.
    Frankie: How’s my favorite aunt?
    Sharlene (sighing): I’m good. Come in. Do you want some tea?
    Frankie: No not right now.
    Sharlene: Are you sure?
    Frankie: I just came to see how you were doing.
    Sharlene: After my drunken rant at Charlie and Kirkland’s wedding. I owe you and Charlie a huge apology.
    Frankie: No no no it’s okay.
    Sharlene: I had a Sharly Watts moment.
    Frankie: Thank God she’s gone. Where’s John?
    Sharlene: He went to the hospital.
    Frankie gets up and walks toward the kitchen.
    Sharlene: I know what you’re going to make.
    Frankie: Do you have chamomile or green?
    Sharlene smiles.
    Sharlene: Chamomile.
    As Frankie walks away, Sharlene’s cell phone vibrates, alerting her of a voice mail. She listens to it and makes a phone call.
    Sharlene: Mitch its me. I’m doing fine. Really? She’s back? I’m gonna talk to Frankie about it. Oh Matthew’s back. You must be thrilled.
    Meanwhile, Frankie, unseen by Sharlene, is holding a tray with tea cups looking at Sharlene.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    CORY MANSION – Rachel (Victoria Wyndham) is in the living room as Matt (Matt Crane) walks in, and notices something…
    Matt: Mom.
    Rachel: Hiii honey. Nice of you to drop in.
    Rachel goes up and hugs Matt.
    Matt: Sorry I’ve been busy at the office.
    Rachel: When did you get back?
    Matt: A couple of days ago.
    Rachel: And you’re just now coming to see me? What kind of son are you?
    Matt: You’re sculpting.
    Rachel: You’ve always had a keen eye for the obvious.
    Matt: You only do that when something’s on your mind.
    Rachel: Something is on my mind actually.
    Matt: Care to talk about it?
    Cory (Drew Tyler Bell) walks in and interrupts.
    Cory: It’s because of me.
    Matt: Cory. Hey little bro.
    Cory: Hey Matt. Can I…talk to mom alone for a minute?
    Matt: Um I…may have an idea of what this is about.
    Cory: You do?
    Matt: About your dad.
    Rachel: Yes I…I told Matthew and Paulina where I was taking Carl.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    CORY PRODUCTIONS – Paulina (Judi Evans) walks into Amanda’s (Sandra Dee Robinson) office, while Amanda is engrossed with whatever is on her computer. Paulina nervously approaches her with papers.
    Paulina: Amanda.
    Amanda (not looking at Paulina): Hey.
    Paulina: You…need to see these. I was gonna wait until Matthew came back, but this can’t wait.
    Amanda still does not look at Paulina.
    Amanda: Okay leave them on my desk and I’ll take a look at them.
    Paulina: I got these off the printer. They didn’t do well at all.
    Paulina gives Amanda the papers.
    Amanda: These are the ratings for the show we produced for Webflix?
    Paulina: Yeah unfortunately.
    Amanda: This isn’t good at all.
    Paulina: The board is getting very antsy.
    Amanda: Oh they’ll be fine. I’m expecting Felicia to come by.
    Paulina: About the movie deal?
    Felicia knocks on the open door. She walks in but does not shut the door.
    Amanda: Hi Felicia. Come on in. Please have a seat.
    Felicia: Hi Paulina. Amanda.
    Paulina: Hi.
    Felicia: How’s Rachel doing these days? I’m sure she’s been great since Carl’s returned.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Rachel: I had to protect you and your sister.
    Cory: So everybody knew that my dad was in Monticello except for me?
    Rachel: No honey it wasn’t like that.
    Matt: Reginald Love was still out there, and he didn’t want anyone to know that he was alive, so mom couldn’t tell you where she took Carl. It would have put all of us in danger.
    Cory: But she told you and Paulina.
    Rachel: I could not have you coming to see him at the Cavanaugh Clinic. He had to get well. There’s no telling what Reginald would have done.
    Cory: You lied and said that he was in Springfield.
    Rachel: I never said that Carl was in Springfield. Wherever did you get that idea?
    Cory: We went there to look for dad, and we couldn’t find him.
    Rachel: We? Who did you go with?
    Cory: Iris.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Amanda: Mom seems fine, but you never really know with her.
    Felicia: I know…well let’s get down to business shall we? Do…you want to wait for Matthew to come?
    Paulina: No. Let’s get right to it.
    Amanda: I’ll inform him when he comes back to the office.
    Iris (Catherine Hickland) walks up to the door and decides to listen as she notices Felicia in the office.
    Felicia: Okay. Just so we’re clear, this is about me selling you the rights to three of my books, and make them into movies.
    Amanda: Yes of course.
    Felicia: Normally my agent would speak to you, but since we’re all friends I…I thought I would come here myself and talk terms. We got your initial bid, but my agent and I thought that your price was too low.
    Iris now listens intently.

    PART 2
    Rachel: I didn’t discuss Springfield with anyone except Matthew and Paulina.
    Cory: I don’t know how she found out.
    Rachel: She probably overheard us somehow.
    Matt: I’m surprised you would even be spending any time with Iris.
    Rachel: Me, too, given how she feels about your father.
    Cory: She really helped me get through that. You weren’t even returning any of my phone calls.
    Rachel: Honey, listen, I didn’t mean to make you worry, but I’m not going to apologize for protecting you.
    Matt: All that matters now is that your dad is home. Reginald is in Tanquir and everybody’s safe.
    Rachel: Are you still angry about it?
    Cory (smiling): No. Like you said, dad is back home and he’s well.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Carl (Charles Keating) is upstairs on his cell phone.
    Carl: I need to see you. I’m on my way.
    Carl hangs up the phone, grabs a tissue, and blots it against his right nostril, and he looks at the blood on the tissue.
    Carl: This can’t be happening again.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Frankie gently places the tray on the coffee table and sits next to Sharlene.
    Frankie: Who was that?
    Sharlene: That was Mitch.
    Frankie: Hmm.
    Frankie takes a sip of her tea.
    Sharlene: He was just checking on me.
    Frankie: That’s nice of him. Seems like you two have become friends.
    Sharlene: He helped me through the whole Janice thing, even when John didn’t. I’ll be forever grateful to him for that.
    Frankie: Yeah. You mentioned Matthew.
    Sharlene: Mitch said he was back in town.
    Frankie: Talk about gratitude.
    Sharlene: I bet you wanna talk to him.
    Frankie: He saved my life.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    THE CENTER - Felicia is walking when Iris walks up behind her.
    Iris: Felicia.
    Felicia turns around.
    Felicia: Hi Iris.
    Iris: Do you have a minute?
    Felicia: Thirty seconds.
    Iris: Oh this won’t take long.
    Felicia: I hope not.
    Iris: I hear you’re looking to turn three of your novels to movies.
    Felicia: How did you find out about that?
    Iris: I have my ways.
    Felicia: I have to leave.
    Iris: I’ll double what Cory Productions is paying you. Let KBAY produce your movies.
    Felicia laughs.
    Iris: Is something funny?
    Felicia: Rachel is one my dearest friends. Do you really think I would align with you on anything?
    Iris: This is business. This has nothing to do with Rachel.
    Felicia: But it has everything to do with you wanting to hurt Cory Productions, and I’m not going to be part of that.
    Felicia turns around to walk away…
    Iris: Triple.
    Felicia turns back around to face Iris.
    Iris: I will triple whatever Cory Productions is offering you. Talk to your agent. I’m sure he’ll tell you take my offer.
    Felicia: Forget it Iris. I’m not going to take your offer.
    Felicia walks away and Iris takes out her cell phone and makes a phone call.
    Iris: I need papers drawn up, and delivered to Felicia Gallant.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Rachel and Cory hug.
    Cory: Well I’m headed out.
    Rachel: Okay honey. I’ll see you later.
    Cory leaves Matt and Rachel in the living room.
    Matt: I’m gonna go to the office.
    Rachel: Matthew wait.
    Matt: What is it mom?
    Rachel: You were right about one thing. I am a bit worried.
    Matt: I thought it was about Cory.
    Rachel: No, it’s about his father. He hasn’t been quite himself since he’s been back.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ROOM - Carl sits on a chair and someone wearing a lab coat walks in walks in with x-rays.
    Carl: Thank you for making time for me doctor.
    The doctor turns the lights on, and places the x-rays on them. On the pocket of the lab coat, there is an ID tag that reads: Russell Matthews, MD (Jed Allan).

    ANOTHER WORLD 171 Amanda makes an important decision

    Amanda sits in the living room and flashes back to her and Paulina’s confrontation with Iris about Operation Loco...
    Iris: Tucker was a dear friend of mine, but I don’t know what that has to do with this Operation Local or whatever it is you’re talking about.
    Amanda: You’re gonna go with that Iris?
    Paulina: Of course she is Amanda. She’s a world class liar.
    Iris: Aww you two are such a force together. Daddy would be so proud.
    Iris turns around and puts two more folders in her box, and turns back around to face the sisters.
    Amanda: No daddy wouldn’t. Tucker tried to kill his own mother with poisoned paint, and you helped him.
    Iris: First of all, I resent the fact that you are talking one of my dearest friends like that, and second, I would never have helped Tucker kill his mother. That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.
    Amanda: I wonder how stupid you think it would be if I turned the evidence I had over to the police.
    Iris: They’ll laugh you right out of the precinct. You don’t have anything.
    Paulina: I wouldn’t be so smug if I were you. You’re finally gonna get what you’ve long deserved.
    Iris walks up to Paulina’s face.
    Iris: Yeah because that’s worked so well for you hasn’t it? I mean, didn’t you hit Kirkland with your car while you were all doped up on pills?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE CARLINOS...Paulina opens the door about to leave, and Kirkland, who was about to ring the doorbell, is there. His appearance causes a bit of awkwardness on Paulina’s part.
    Paulina: Umm...Kirkland what can I do for you? I was about to go out.
    Kirkland: Do you have a minute? I don’t wanna keep you.
    Paulina: Uh...yeah sure. Come in.
    There’s a silence between the two and Paulina breaks it.
    Paulina: Congratulations are in order huh? Gonna be a husband.
    Kirkland: Yep in a couple days.
    Paulina: That’s really wonderful Kirkland I’m happy for you. Do you need some help or anything?
    Kirkland: No. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t even be here to be able to get married. You see that’s what I came here for. I wanted to thank you.
    Paulina: Thank me?
    Kirkland: If you hadn’t hit me with your car when I was a kid, I wouldn’t be alive today.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    BACK TO AMANDA’S FLASHBACK
    Paulina: Is that how you’re playing? Because you don’t wanna get dirty with me.
    Iris: Yes Paulina, pigs do wallow in mud.
    Paulina: You bitch!
    Amanda then gets between them and continues to come after Iris.
    Iris: Is that all you got Paulina? How many times are you gonna call me a bitch?
    Amanda: You’re avoiding the subject. Insults aren’t gonna save you.
    Iris: You know Amanda, what’s insulting, and just downright offensive, is your choices in men. Well, with a mother like Rachel, it stands to reason that you have mostly screwed up in this area. Evan Frame, Grant Harrison, Cameron Sinclair, and now Allen Love. I’ll give you credit for Sam Fowler because you two had Alli, but the others prove that you seem to gravitate toward men who have once hurt you or tried to hurt people in your family at one point or another. Your latest one is a mystery inside an enigma. Allen Love, he turned out to be another one of Reginald’s puppets like Peter was. My my, you sure know how to pick em don’t you?
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    IN FRONT OF THE LOVE MANSION - Toni has just received a text from Reginald Love, and showed Etta Mae, who is horrified. Both are beside each other, facing the door.
    Etta Mae: Oh my God.
    Toni: Don’t panic mom. I don’t think he’s gonna hurt her.
    Etta Mae: How can you be so sure?
    Toni: Come on. Think about it. KC is his great granddaughter. He’s not going to do anything to her.
    Etta Mae: That doesn’t mean he won’t take her someplace we might never find her.
    Toni: We just gotta give him what he wants.
    They turn around, and to their surprise, Allen is standing there, looking at both of them as if he’s caught them doing something.
    CAMERA PAN ON ALLEN...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PART 2
    AMANDA’S FLASHBACK CONTINUES…
    Amanda: This isn’t about anyone’s past here. This is about you and what you’ve done. I’m giving you a chance to explain yourself before I decide that to do with the evidence.
    Iris: You’re bluffing.
    Paulina: I say send it Amanda. Call the Genoa City Police Department as soon as possible and tell them you have evidence.
    Amanda flashes back to the present, looks at her cell phone as if she’s a bit conflicted, then makes the call.
    Amanda: Hi may I speak with Detective Paul Williams please?
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Paulina: That was a...very difficult time in my life.
    Kirkland: My mom told me all about it. She told me what dad had done, too.
    Paulina: I don’t blame Grant for my addiction to diet pills, and I certainly don’t blame him for what I did to you.
    Kirkland: But if you hadn’t hit me with your car, they would never have found the aneurysm that was in my brain. Don’t you see? You saved my life. I couldn’t be happy if you never did what you did.
    Paulina chuckles nervously.
    Paulina: Kirkland you really don’t have to…
    Kirkland: I know that my dad was supplying you with diet pills, and set your house on fire.
    Paulina: I’ve forgiven him for all of that.
    Kirkland: As have I, but you see everything fell into place. I’m marrying Charlie in a couple days. I’ve never been happier than i am now. None of this is possible without you.
    Paulina: You give me way too much credit…
    Kirkland: You don’t get enough credit. If I hadn’t told you before, I have no ill will toward you for that accident.
    Paulina’s eyes well up…
    Paulina: You don’t know how much it means to me to hear you say that.
    Kirkland: I hope it means that you will come to my wedding.
    Paulina (smiling): Of course honey.
    The two share a warm embrace.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Toni: Allen what are you doing here?
    Allen: I suppose I could ask you the same thing.
    Etta Mae: That ain’t none of your business.
    Toni: Mom it’s okay. We’re here on police business.
    Allen: Etta Mae when did you start working for the BCPD?
    Etta Mae: Toni let’s go.
    Allen: No why don’t you go, because I want to speak to Toni alone.
    Etta Mae: Toni..
    Toni: Mom go to the car. I’ll be right there.
    Etta Mae leaves.
    Allen: You care to tell me what’s going here?
    Toni: I told you. Police business.
    Allen: Are you really gonna stand there and lie to me? I heard what you and Etta Mae were talking about?
    Toni folds her arms with exasperation and curiosity.
    Toni: Detective Snyder is inside and I came with him to tell Michael and Donna…
    Toni stops herself, realizing what this conversation might lead to. Allen flashes back to throwing the gun that Donna used to shoot Reginald into the river.
    Allen: Tell them what?
    Toni: Well you know I can’t tell you that. It’s police business.
    Allen: If it’s a family matter, then it involves me. Whatever it is, maybe I can help.
    Toni: The police is handling it. If you’ll excuse me, I have to get to the station.
    Toni walks away and Allen looks at her wondering what Toni knows, then Donna comes out of the mansion.
    Donna: Hi nephew. I’m glad you came by.
    Allen: I just saw Toni leave. What’s going on?
    Donna: She didn’t tell you?
    Allen: Tell me what?
    Allen lowers his voice a bit.
    Allen: Was it about the gun?
    Donna: No. It’s much worse. He’s the one taunting me.
    Allen: So they found out who’s stalking you?
    Donna: Yes...it’s my father.
    Allen: Reginald? He’s dead.
    Donna: No. He’s very much alive.
    Allen: I heard Toni and Etta Mae talking about K.C.
    Donna: K.C.? Isn’t she Toni’s sister?
    Allen: She said that KC is his great-granddaughter.
    Donna: K.C. Burrell is Reginald’s great-granddaughter? Peter and Etta Mae had an affair? They don’t even know each other.
    Allen: Not that we know of. Toni and Etta Mae were saying something about giving him what he wants, and he would never hurt her. Oh no. I’m...I’m going to the police station to see if I can help.
    Donna: Do you think Reginald has K.C.?
    Allen: Sounds like it, and I’m gonna find out why.

    CORY PRODUCTIONS
    Amanda is in her office, sitting at her desk on the phone.
    Amanda: You’re coming back to Bay City? When? Oh wow that soon. Of course. Mom will be thrilled. Me, too little brother. I sure could use the help at CP.
    Iris walks in as Amanda looks up at her, and finishes up her conversation.
    Amanda: I have to go. A vulture just flew in.
    Iris: How apropo that you use that metaphor.
    Amanda: Coming to get the rest of your things?
    Amanda focuses on her monitor as she starts to type something.
    Iris: I gave you a chance to work with me when I took over Cory Productions, and you called the police.
    Amanda: I did what was right.
    Iris: You betrayed me.
    Amanda: Shouldn’t you be answering to accessory charges?
    Iris: That’s part of why I came to see you; to tell you the wonderful news.
    Amanda: You’re going to jail? That would be great.
    Iris: No. I’m not. Nice try, but did you really think you were gonna get rid of me that easily?
    Amanda: I guess we were as effective as roach spray.
    Iris: You making all these animal and pest references toward me are not becoming.
    Amanda: They fit though, just like the orange jumpsuit you’re gonna be wearing.
    Iris: Oh little sister, that won’t be happening.
    Amanda: Did you use your Spaulding money to pay someone off?
    Iris: Money was not necessary. Apparently the evidence you turned over to the police wasn’t enough. They dropped the charges.
    Amanda looks up from her monitor as Iris has gotten her attention.
    Amanda: You’re lying.
    Iris: It looks like you, Matthew, Paulina, and Michael are stuck with me.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE WEDDING...Michael and Donna are sitting together in the pew looking up front at Kirkland and Charlie at the altar.
    Michael: Look at our grandson.
    Donna: He’s just as handsome as you were...at our second wedding.
    Michael: And the first, third and fourth.
    Meanwhile, Kirkland and Charlie are hand in hand, facing each other, with Frankie, Felicia, Lindsay, and Stacey on Charlie’s side, and Steven and Grant on Kirkland’s side as Minister Jones starts to marry them...as Eric Stenbeck creeps into the foyer, staring directly down the aisle at the couple.
    Minister Jones: I’m not gonna go through all the formalities, and all that other stuff. We all know why we came here today in the presence of God. We want to see Kirkland Harrison and Charlotte Frame-Winthrop get married. I have to ask the question though. If there’s any reason that these two shouldn’t be joined together, speak now, or forever hold your peace.
    Eric then flashes back to the flash drive he has of Kirkland sleeping with the bartender at Genoa City Athletic Club. Nobody responds, so the minister continues. Meanwhile, Cory and Bridget, who are sitting together on the same side of Kirkland’s family, steal a short little conversation started by Bridget putting on her lip gloss.
    Cory: Come on what are you doing? Put that thing away.
    Bridget: A girl’s gotta look good.
    Cory: You look fine.
    Bridget: This is my favorite. I almost left it in my room.
    Cory: Oh no, that would’ve been horrible.
    Bridget: You think you’re funny right? I got the weirdest feeling when I was coming downstairs from my room.
    Cory: Oh I know. You got your lip gloss out of your room but forgot your lips.
    Bridget: No, I’m being serious. It’s probably the same feeling you get about Elizabeth.
    Cory: That twin feeling?
    Bridget: Yeah. It was like Michele was close by.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE MCKINNONS...Michele has just learned that she can’t read. Rachel and Carl try to ease her pain as Rachel sits next to Michele. Carl is sitting in the adjacent chair.
    Rachel: I agree with Carl, but I bet it’s just temporary.
    Carl: You’ve had a traumatic injury. You were struck by a vehicle.
    Michele: People get hit by cars all the time. They can still read! Can I...have a moment alone?
    Rachel: Sure...sure you can.
    Carl: We’ll be right outside if you need us.
    Michele: Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Hutchins...so much.
    Rachel and Carl walk out the door, but Rachel leaves her cell phone on the coffee table, and Michele notices it.
    Carl: Something’s a little off Rachel. Something isn’t right.
    Rachel: I agree. I’m concerned about her.
    Carl: I am, too.
    Rachel: Perhaps we should stay with her until Jake and Vicky come home.
    Michele opens the door and hears what Carl and Rachel are saying.
    Carl: That might take a while.
    Rachel: Kirkland and Charlie’s wedding is today isn’t it?
    Carl: Yes.
    Rachel: They’re gonna have reception at Tops. Yeah Jake and Vicky might not be home for hours.
    Michele slowly shuts the door.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE CHURCH...Kirkland and Charlie have already exchanged rings, and now Minister Jones asks Kirkland and Charlie the question they’ve been waiting to hear.
    Minister Jones: Do you, Kirkland Harrison, take Charlotte Frame-Winthrop to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold from this day forward, in sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, forsaking all others, till death do you part?
    Kirkland: I do.
    Minister Jones: Do you, Charlotte Frame-Winthrop, take Kirkland Harrison to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold from this day forward, in sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, forsaking all others, till death do you part?
    Charlie: I do.
    Minister Jones: By the power vested in me, and the State of Illinois, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You can kiss her.
    Kirkland caresses Charlie’s cheeks and kisses her. Meanwhile, Eric is outside in the foyer watching and utters “liar” to himself.

    AT CORY PRODUCTIONS…
    Amanda: I had more than enough proof to put you away.
    Iris: I stopped there on the way to seeing my granddaughter Sarah. They couldn’t prove that I knew what Tucker was doing.
    Amanda: What about the money transfers?
    Iris: I had no way of knowing that Tucker was going to buy poisoned paint. All I knew was that he was doing a reality show. I had nothing to do with what happened.
    Amanda: Well don’t think about trying to take over Cory Productions again, because I won’t let you.
    Iris: That’s another reason why I came.
    Amanda: It’s not for sale.
    Iris: I have no interest in taking over daddy’s company.
    Amanda: I have to go meet Allen.
    Amanda walks to the door.
    Iris: Don’t you wanna know what I found out while I was out of town?
    Amanda: Let me guess. You fed on carcasses.
    Iris: Hmm on the vulture thing again huh? Unfortunately I didn’t scavenge for the info I found.
    Amanda: For God’s sake just spit it out!
    Iris: Okay here it goes. Martin Hudson is the Cory heir.
    Amanda: He’s dead. He and Michael were twins.
    Iris: Daddy only fathered one of them, and it was Martin, not Michael. Michael is as much a Cory as a...vulture.
    Amanda: So what does all this supposed to mean? If Martin was the Cory heir and he died, it passed onto Michael because he wasn’t married, and he didn’t have any children.
    Iris: And you’re sure about that?
    Amanda: So...the Cory heir is still out there, and you know who it is, don’t you?
    Iris: No sis, I don’t, but what I do know, is that I will not forget how you betrayed me. You’ll wish you didn’t.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    OUTSIDE THE MCKINNONS HOUSE…
    Rachel: I’m not even sure what we’re gonna tell Cory when we get home.
    Carl: We’re gonna have to make him understand why. We would have put him in danger if we told where you had taken me.
    Rachel: Now that it’s public knowledge that Reginald’s alive, he’s out of danger. He might be a little more accepting of why I couldn’t tell him where you were.
    Carl: We have to call him.
    Rachel: Of course. Wait a minute where’s my phone?
    Carl: Let’s check inside.
    Carl and Rachel go inside and Rachel retrieves her cell phone, but they don’t see Michele. Rachel calls out for her, and no response.
    Rachel: My God where is she?
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT TOPS...The elevator doors open and Amanda, dressed in a short, off white dress and matching open toed heels, walks in. She sees all the wedding guests have all arrived and settled in at their round tables. The four level wedding cake is on a table next to the terrace. She spots Allen and walks over to him. Allen is at a table with Michael and Donna.
    Allen: Hey babe. So glad you didn’t get stuck at the office.
    Amanda: Me, too. Donna, Michael.
    Donna: Hi there Amanda. You missed a wonderful ceremony.
    Amanda: I wish I could have made. Michael, may I talk to you for a moment?
    Michael: Sure.
    Michael gets up and he and Amanda go to a semi- private spot.
    Michael: What’s up?
    Amanda: Iris came by the office. She knows the truth.
    Michael: About Martin?
    Amanda: Yes, and she hinted that Martin may have a child or a wife.
    Michael: If they’re out there, then they would inherit everything that Mac left for my brother.
    Amanda: Including Cory Productions.
    -------
    Meanwhile, Cory and Bridget are sitting together.
    Cory: Your brother and my niece look so happy.
    Bridget: They sure do. I hope I can be as happy as they are. I’m going to the ladies’ room. I’ll be right back.
    Then Cass goes to the center of the room and asks for everyone’s attention.
    Cass: It’s time for the bride and groom’s first dance.
    Kirkland takes Charlie’s hand and escorts to the center of the floor as “If I Didn’t Have You” by Amanda Marshall starts to be played. As the song plays, the newlyweds look in each other’s eye the whole time.
    For the other couples...
    Cass and Frankie are dancing together...
    Frankie: I don’t want to wake up. These last few days seem like a dream.
    Cass: It’s real baby.
    Frankie looks over at John and Sharlene...
    Frankie: I want everybody to be this happy.
    John looks at Sharlene, he extends his hand so they can dance together, but she grabs her purse, gets up, and walks away from the table. She walks by Felicia and Mitch, who are dancing together. Mitch watches Sharlene, Felicia looks at a dejected John, and then they look back at each other.
    Gregory and Lindsay, while dancing, also saw what happened between John and Sharlene.
    Lindsay: Wow. I hope your parents work things out.
    Gregory: Trust me it’s...probably for the best.
    Lindsay: Maybe you should go after her.
    Gregory: No I...think she should be alone.
    Jake and Vicky sit at their table.
    Vicky: So...you don’t wanna dance?
    Jake: Vicky I’m not doing this here.
    Vicky: Doing what? I just asked you to dance.
    Jake: I still don’t trust you. I don’t know if I ever will.
    Vicky: You want to throw away everything we’ve meant to each other?
    Jake: You did that when you decided to keep the truth from me about Lindsay.
    Vicky: You’re never gonna forgive me for that are you?
    Vicky gets up and leaves the table.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Sharlene approaches the bar near the elevator.



    Sharlene: Double scotch please; on the rocks.



    The elevator doors open and Michele, dressed in blue jeans, white sneakers, and a blue t-shirt, walks out. She notices Cory alone and smiles. Bridget unknowingly walks right by Michele, and Michele hides behind a large plant. Bridget suddenly stops.



    Bridget: Oh my God. That feeling again.



    Bridget continues to walk through the dancing couples, Michele re-emerges and decides to follow Bridget, but stops when Bridget joins Cory on the dance floor.



    Bridget: I got that feeling again.



    Cory: The one you were talking about at the church?



    Bridget: Yep. It’s like I feel Michele. Almost as if she’s here.



    A dejected Michele backs away, turns around, and goes to the elevator. Vicky comes up behind her.



    Vicky: Hi. Can I help you? Are you looking for someone?



    Michele is seemingly frozen, as she hears her mother’s voice for the first time in a very long time.

    MCKINNONS HOUSE
    Bridget is in the living room on her cell phone.
    Bridget: Hey I was wondering if you wanted to hang out, grab a latte or something. You’re there now? Okay. See ya in a bit.
    Jake walks in.
    Jake: Where ya headed kiddo?
    Bridget: I’m going to the Center to meet Lindsay.
    Jake: Seems like you two are becoming friends.
    Bridget: I’m just grateful to her for helping you get better.
    Jake: Well have a good time.
    Bridget leaves and Vicky walks in.
    Vicky: Where did Bridget go?
    Jake: She went to the Center to meet Lindsay.

    She kisses Jake and leaves.

    AT THE COURT…
    Frankie is on the stand at Christy Carson's parole hearing.
    Frankie: I was visiting her and we wrote letters. I know that she did some horrible things in the past, but from what I can see, she is truly sorry and remorseful for what she had done. She was trapped in a marriage to an emotionally abusive husband. Obviously it took its toll on her, but after the visits and the letters, I could see she was back to the Christy McHale I knew back in college. I want my best friend back.
    CUT TO Cass on the stand…
    Cass: This woman had designs on me, but there were two people in her way, Douglas Carson, and Frankie Frame, and she methodically got one of them out of the way. Douglas was on oxygen, and she used his illness to her advantage. She poisoned him, and THEN she tried to get Frankie out of the way by framing her for his death. All because she wanted me, then she tried to poison me also. Your honor, I don’t think this woman should be granted parole. I believe she’s a danger to our family, and a danger to society. I’ve also visited with her, and she threatened my daughter.
    Christy: That’s a lie! Cass is making it up.
    Judge Baker bangs her gavel and demands order in the court. She tells Cass he can step down, she heard all she needs, and she says she’s ready to render a decision.

    Matt: And Sandy. I have his proxy.
    Iris: Right, well you all want me out of Cory Productions. Michael, what say you?
    Michael: It depends on what you have to say.
    Iris (walking up to Michael): I’m gonna give you all what you want. I want nothing to do with Cory Productions.

    Lindsay: How are things?
    Bridget: They’re great.
    Lindsay: How’s Jake?
    Bridget: He looks so much better. He’s walking like a regular person now. All thanks to you.
    Lindsay (shaking her head): Bridget, you don’t have to keep thanking me. It was my pleasure to help.
    Bridget: He got hurt because he was trying to move my bedroom around for me.
    Lindsay: That’s...that’s what dad’s do.
    Bridget: What about your dad?
    Vicky walks up and interrupts…
    Vicky: I’m sure he’s a wonderful guy.
    Bridget: Hey mom.
    Vicky: Bridget honey, why don’t you be a doll and go get me a latte. I want to talk to Lindsay.
    Bridget leaves, and Vicky turns her attention to Lindsay.
    Vicky: What the HELL do you think you’re doing?
    Lindsay: Now I can’t spend time with Bridget.

    COURTHOUSE
    Cass and Frankie listen to Judge Baker.
    Judge Baker: Mrs. Christina Carson please stand. I’ve heard the testimony of Mr. Cass Winthrop and Miss Mary Frances Frame. I’ve read the doctor’s reports. You’ve been a model citizen among the inmates, but I am concerned. I am concerned about your past obsession with Mr. Cass Winthrop. Since I don’t see evidence of that being gone, I think you need more therapy, and you still could be a danger to Mr. Winthrop. I cannot grant you parole at this time.
    Christy: Your honor please. I’m not that person anymore! I’ve paid my penance!
    Judge Baker: We will revisit this is in six months. Court is adjourned. Please remand Mrs. Carson back to state custody.
    Judge Baker hits the block with her gavel, and the guards escort Christy out of the back of the courtroom, as Cass and Frankie look at her.
    Christy: No! No!

    Matt: You mean to tell me that you are just giving up the company?
    Amanda: I don’t believe it.
    Michael: There’s gotta be a catch to this.
    Iris: Come on everybody’s gonna get what they want here. Michael I can appeal any decision you make that I don’t agree with about Cory, and appeal, and appeal. All those legal fees will bleed the company dry, or you can just give me Brava.
    Amanda: What? You can’t do that! Michael you cannot give her what I helped build!
    Iris: Print and web. I want full control and ownership of Brava Magazine.
    Paulina: You’re desperate to hold on to any part of Cory. Just give it up! You’ve lost.
    Michael is silent.
    Matthew: Come on Michael, you’re not seriously considering this?
    Paulina: She doesn’t have any leverage. Let’s arrange for the hearing and get her out.

    AT THE MCKINNONS...Cory and Bridget have unknowingly encountered Michele, who just ransacked the living room.
    Cory: You did this?
    Bridget: Who are you? Why did you do this to my picture?
    Two police officers enter, and Bridget directs them to Michele.
    Bridget: Officer. Arrest her. She broke in here and ransacked the living room.
    Officer #1: Did you do this?
    Michele: Yes.
    Officer #2: We gotta take you to the station. You’re under arrest.
    Officer #2 reads Michele her Miranda rights as Bridget turns to Cory.
    Bridget: I’m getting that feeling again.
    Cory: The same one you got before.
    Bridget: Yeah.
    ----------------------------
    TOPS...Donna talks to Vicky at Donna and Michael’s table as they look at Kirkland and Charlie. Vicky’s cell phone is on the table.
    Donna: Look at them.
    Vicky: I’m so happy for my son.
    Donna: Those two have been through so much in their lives, and now they’re married. It’s amazing. People can get through anything.
    Vicky: Look, don’t mention it.
    Donna: Mention what?
    Vicky: You’re about to make a Jake reference.
    Donna: I simply said people can get through anything. If it applies to you and Jake, then so be it.
    Vicky: Oh Donna whatever.
    Donna: While we’re on the subject…
    Vicky: No…
    Donna: I told you to tell Jake the truth about Lindsay, but you decided to keep it to yourself.
    Vicky: I did what I had to do to protect my family. If he doesn’t understand that, then I don’t know what else to say.
    Vicky’s cell phone vibrates with a text message, and it gets Vicky’s attention.
    Vicky: What’s this? From Bridget.
    Vicky reads the text message that says “Someone broke into the house. They caught the person who did it. Meet us at the police station.”
    Vicky: Oh my God.
    Donna: What is it?
    Vicky: Someone broke into the house.
    Donna: Oh no.
    Vicky: I’m going to the police station.
    Meanwhile, Jake is over with Cass at Cass and Frankie’s table.
    Jake: So how long did it take you to give your blessing to this wedding?
    Cass: It took me a little while, but I saw how happy my daughter was, and I couldn’t deny her that.
    Jake: I mean, I...I understand. I’m gonna give a hard time to any man who wants marry any of my girls.
    Cass: Any father would, but you gotta be careful not to alienate your daughters.
    Jake: Of course not. Bridget and Lindsay are two strong minded girls.
    Cass: So you’ve...talked to Lindsay?
    Jake: I did, right before the wedding.
    Cass: What about my sister?
    Jake: I...haven’t spoken to her.
    Cass: Stacey didn’t want hurt anybody. Not you, not Vicky, not anyone.
    Jake: They had no right to keep the truth from me, though, Cass.
    Cass: Look I get that you’re angry about it, but you need to try to look at it from another point of view. You had your family, and Stacey didn’t want to disrupt it.
    Vicky walks up to them with Donna.
    Cass: Hey Vicky.
    Vicky: Cass hi. Jake we gotta get to the police station.
    Jake: What? Is everything alright?
    Vicky: Bridget texted me. Someone broke into our house. They have the perpetrator at the station.
    Donna: I’ll go tell Michael.
    Meanwhile, John is sitting at a table by himself when Michael walks over to him and puts his left hand on the chair opposite John.
    Michael: Hey bro.
    John: Michael.
    Michael: Mind if I sit?
    John: Not at all, especially since you’ve pulled out the chair.
    Michael: I see you haven’t lost your sense of humor after all these years.
    John: I’m gonna need it.
    Michael: I heard Sharlene got released today. That’s great news isn’t it?
    Sharlene taps Michael on his left shoulder.
    Sharlene: Yes it sure is!
    Michael: Hey, Sharlene.
    Sharlene: Hey...Michael!
    Michael and Sharlene hug, but Michael pulls away as he slightly winces his face.
    Michael: How many have you had?
    Sharlene: A few. It’s a celebration isn’t it? My niece and your grandson got married, and I got to see it, but do you wanna know what happened on our way here?
    John gets up.
    John: Sharlene.
    Sharlene raises her voice and draws everyone’s attention, particularly Mitch and Felicia’s.
    Sharlene: All three of us rode to the wedding together. John, me, and his homewrecking slut!
    Felicia, and Mitch and Gregory come over to his Sharlene, as he realizes she’s drunk.
    Felicia: You watch your mouth!
    Sharlene: You shut up! You should know what it’s like to be drunk!
    Felicia: I get that you’ve been through hell, because I am not gonna sit here and let you embarrass me.
    Sharlene: You’re an embarrassment and a disgrace!
    Felicia: John you need to do something about your wife.
    Mitch gets between Felicia and Sharlene as Gregory comes along.
    Mitch: That’s enough.
    Gregory: Come on mom. Let me take you home.
    Sharlene: I’m not going anywhere until I’m ready! Attention everybody! My husband told me he’s not sleeping with Felicia. If any of you know the real truth, you need to tell me now!
    Meanwhile, Jake and Vicky are with Kirkland and Charlie.
    Jake: Sharlene seems like she’s had one too many.
    Vicky: Yeah I can see that.
    Kirkland: What’s up mom?
    Vicky: I got a text from Bridget.
    Jake: Someone broke in the house.
    Kirkland: What? Someone must known you were gone.
    Charlie: Oh no. I’m gonna get my mom. I’ve never seen Aunt Sharlene like that. Vicky let us know if there’s anything we can do.
    Vicky: You stay here and...enjoy your wedding day.
    Kirkland: Do they know who did it?
    Vicky: Bridget said yes. They’re on their way to the station.
    Kirkland: Go ahead. Let us know what happens.
    Jake: We will.
    Jake and Vicky walk up to the elevator. As the door opens, there are Rachel and Carl.
    Carl: Victoria.
    Rachel: I’m glad we found you.
    Vicky: Oh my God. Carl? You look great. When did you get out?
    Carl: I’ll tell you another time, but there’s something we have to tell you.
    Rachel: It’s about your daughter.
    Vicky: We already know.
    Rachel and Carl look at Jake and Vicky with confusion.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    As the officers are escorting a handcuffed Michele to the door, Bridget confronts her.
    Bridget: Wait a minute. There’s something...so familiar about you.
    Michele: Of course there is. If you haven’t figured it out by now, then you really are stupid.

    AT TOPS…Rachel and Carl are shocked at what Jake and Vicky tell them.
    Rachel: You know?
    Jake: Yeah Bridget said that someone broke into the house, and they’re at the police station.
    Vicky: We’ve gotta go. I’m getting worried about Bridget.
    Rachel: We’ll go with you.
    As the four of them enter the elevator and subsequently leave, Frankie goes over to Sharlene.
    Frankie: Aunt Sharlene, this isn’t the time.
    Sharlene: It’s the perfect time Frankie. I’m exposing to the whole town the cheater that my husband really is. I want a divorce!
    Frankie: Gregory can you take your mom home please?
    Gregory: Of course.
    Sharlene: I’ll get myself home.
    Frankie: Not when you’re drunk. You shouldn’t be alone right now. Please take your mother home Gregory.
    As Gregory escorts Sharlene to the elevator so they can leave, Frankie turns to John.
    Frankie: What happened?
    John: I don’t know Frankie, but whatever it is, it’s between me and Sharlene. Let us work it out.
    Frankie then turns to Felicia.
    Frankie: Is it true? Are you having an affair with John again?
    Felicia: I’m so tired of having to explain myself to everyone.
    Mitch: She’s not.
    Frankie: I sure hope that’s true. Hasn’t my aunt been through enough?
    Frankie walks past Donna and Michael.
    Donna: Michael, we gotta go to the police station. Something’s happened to Bridget.
    Michael: Where are Jake and Victoria?
    Donna: They’ve already gone down there.
    Meanwhile, Kirkland and Charlie sit at their table.
    Kirkland: Wow. What a day this has been.
    Charlie: I hope Aunt Sharlene’s gonna be okay.
    Kirkland: I’m sure she will.
    Charlie: Ever since we got to the reception it’s been one thing after another.
    Kirkland: Makes you wonder what other surprises are gonna happen.
    Charlie: I hope your mom and Jake find out what happened at their house.

    POLICE STATION
    Toni is with Michele at a desk in the front area.
    Toni: Why did you break in the McKinnon’s house?
    Michele: I didn’t break in. I got the key.
    Toni: There were signs of forced entry. Is there something you wanted in there?
    Michele: I’m not gonna tell you.
    Toni: You know, you’re in a lot of trouble. Breaking and entering and vandalism are very serious. You still haven’t told me your name.
    Michele: I’m not telling you that.
    Toni: You’re not being very cooperative and that’s not helping your case young lady.
    Michele: Why don’t you call my parents?
    Toni: Who are they?
    Bridget and Cory walk in...
    Toni: Bridget, Cory. Are you guys here to give a statement?
    Bridget: Yes. She told us that she broke in.
    Toni: You saw her in the house?
    Cory: Yeah we did. It was totally trashed.
    Bridget: My parents are on their way.
    Toni turns to Michele, and at this point, still nobody knows that this girl that ransacked the McKinnons is Michele.
    Toni: So you care to stop playing games and tell us who you are?
    Michele pauses and continues…
    Michele: I’ll tell you when my parents get here.
    This statement catches Bridget’s attention, and Bridget flashes back to an earlier moments of the day…
    EPISODE 181
    Bridget shows (Cory) her picture with the broken glass portrait.
    Bridget: Look at this. My picture.
    -----
    Bridget: I got that feeling again.
    Cory: The one you were talking about at the church?
    Bridget: Yep. It’s like I feel Michele. Almost as if she’s here.
    -------
    Back to the present, Bridget shakes her head in apparent disbelief…
    Cory: Bridget what’s wrong?
    Bridget: No...this can’t be.
    She then goes up to Michele, whom she still does not know that she’s Michele.
    Bridget: Did my great-grandfather send you? You aren’t...you...aren’t who I think you are.
    Michele: Is that right? Who am I then?
    Bridget: No...no it isn’t true. You’re an impostor. Reginald changed your face.
    Toni: Bridget what are you saying?
    Bridget: She’s impersonating my dead sister Michele.
    Michele: There’s only one problem with that. I’m very much alive.
    Bridget: You’re a fake!
    Jake, Vicky, Rachel and Carl walk in, and Cory is shocked.
    Cory: Mom? Dad? Dad when did you…?
    Carl: Son.
    Rachel: I’ll tell you later son I promise.
    Rachel notices Michele, and Toni approaches Jake and Vicky.
    Toni: Jake, Vicky, this is the girl who broke into your house.
    Bridget: She’s impersonating Michele. I think grandpa Reginald sent her.
    Vicky: What? Michele? She’s dead.
    Bridget: She’s insinuating that she’s my sister.
    Vicky: How dare you say that you’re Michele? She would never break in anyone’s house! I say we press charges.
    Jake: Why did you do it?
    Michele: I didn’t break in dad. I got the key from underneath the middle flower pot outside.
    Vicky: How did you know where it was? Did Reginald tell you?
    Michele: No. He doesn’t even know about it.
    Jake: Michele and Bridget were identical. You don’t look anything like her. There’s no way you’re my daughter. Michele died in a car accident.
    Michele: Mr. and Mrs. Hutchins. Please tell them.
    Rachel interrupts.
    Rachel: Jake, Vicky, I have something to tell you both.
    Rachel gives them the paper, and Jake and Vicky both read it over.
    Vicky: No...I’m with Bridget. This is Reginald’s doing!
    Carl: Jake the results from your paternity test with Steven was cross referenced with Michele’s DNA.
    Rachel: We stopped in Oakdale and Dr. Hughes ran the test. It came back positive. This girl is your daughter.
    Jake, Vicky, Bridget, Cory and Toni are all shocked.

    Sam: How many tiles have you counted?
    Silas: Five thousand three hundred sixty two.
    Sam: Well that’s not what I got.
    Silas: What number did you come up with?
    Sam: Two.
    Silas: Where did you get that number from?
    Sam: The number of additional nights that my mother is gonna keep Danny.
    Silas: I thought he was at the Quartermaines. You took him to see Jason right?
    Sam: Yeah but, my mom and Molly were practically begging to watch him, and you know I never refuse that.
    Silas: Sure...right. So did...you and Jason talk?
    Sam: Of course we did. I wasn’t just gonna drop my son and leave.
    Silas: About what?
    Sam: About Danny, about what he went through when he was on Cassadine Island. What’s going on? It almost sounds like you’re accusing me of...Nina talked to you didn’t she?

    Jason (skimming over the papers): Wow. Renovations haven’t even been started on it yet, and all these companies are willing to pay this much for space.
    Michael: It’s almost a slam dunk for the return on our investment with all the mob activity cleaned up from down there.
    Jason: We gotta land contracts. ELQ could make a fortune off of this.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Nina is in her office (Crimson’s former office) at the MetroCourt, and she’s on the phone.
    Nina: Have you placed the bid for the waterfront project? Good. If we get this, this will create jobs, not to mention chi-ching for us with the number of retailers wanting space there.
    Sam walks in.
    Nina: I’m sorry I don’t think you had an appointment.
    Sam: Let’s get something straight you conniving bitch! You stay away from Silas.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    KELLY’S...Carly walks up to Morgan and Kiki, who are sitting at a table…
    Carly: Hi Morgan, Kiki.
    Kiki: Carly.
    Morgan: Mom what are you doing here?
    Carly: I suppose I could ask you both the same thing. You’re holding hands with your brother’s fiancee? What’s going on?

    PART 2
    Nina: Excuse me?
    Sam: Not only are you conniving, you’re stupid. You don’t understand English.
    Nina: Listen you little twit you don’t get to come into my office and hurl insults and tell me what to do.
    Sam: You are trying to drive a wedge between me and Silas and it’s not gonna work!
    Nina: What’s the matter Sam? Trouble in la la land?
    Sam: Don’t worry about it. You just stay the hell away from him.
    Sam turns around to leave...
    Nina: How was your visit to Jason yesterday? I bet you two took a trip down memory lane. What did you two talk about? How much you used to love each other? I bet you two still do, just like I still love Silas.
    Sam: There is nothing going on with me and Jason.
    Nina: I saw the look in Silas’s eyes yesterday. I see some of the love that we used to have. I know that he looked for me, but my mother moved me to another clinic so he wouldn’t find me.
    Sam: What you and Silas had is in the past. I am with him now, and the sooner you accept it, the better off you’ll be.
    Sam walks out and Nina makes a phone call.
    Nina: Mom...I’m coming.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Jason: Why don’t you take the rest of the day off? Go spend time with your fiancee?
    Michael smiles.
    Michael: I can’t wait to marry her.
    Jason: Of course.
    Michael: I’m glad I have you to stand up for me. If AJ were here, or my dad was around, I’d ask them. Oh I’m sorry I hope I didn’t offend you.
    Jason: I understand. I know you and my brother got close while I was gone.
    Michael: After all I went through with AJ and Sonny, you were always the one I could count on to be there for me.
    Jason: I raised you the first year of your life. You’re always gonna be like a son to me, and I’m always gonna protect you, or at least try.
    Michael: I know…I know.
    Jason: Now go. Go get your woman.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Carly: Morgan I need you go to the MetroCourt and do the housekeeper’s schedule.
    Morgan: Mom--
    Carly: I’ll be along to make sure you did it. Thank you honey.
    Carly kisses Morgan on his cheek and he leaves Kiki and Carly alone.
    Kiki: Look Carly I don’t know what you’re thinking but there’s nothing going on between me and Morgan.
    Carly: Good, because I don’t want another one of my sons hurt because you decide to get with my other son.
    Kiki: I love Michael and I’m gonna marry him.
    Carly: That’s what I wanna hear. I know I couldn’t stand your mother...at all, but that doesn’t mean I feel the same way about you. I think you’re a decent girl Kiki. Don’t prove me wrong.

    Christy leaves Cass no choice; Jack vs Grant; A slippery slope begins for Vicky
     
    CORY MANSION
    Vicky walks in wearing an off white glitter dress with a matching purse, heels. ..and an envelope.  Guests are mingling as Amanda, who is wearing a sky blue dress, and Allen greet her in the foyer.
    Allen:  What’s up cuz?
    Vicky:  Hey.  Hi Amanda.
    Amanda:  Hi you look great.
    Vicky:  Thank you.  Likewise.
    Allen:  Did you hear the news?
    Vicky:  No what?  
    Allen:  Uncle Peter called me earlier.  He said that my mother is cancer free.
    Vicky:  Wow that’s wonderful!  That is such great news.
    Amanda:  That is.  I’m gonna go outside and call Alli.
    Allen:  Okay.
    They kiss on the lips and Amanda goes upstairs.
    Vicky:  That is the greatest news Allen.  I’m so happy for you.  Aunt Nicole beat cancer.
    Allen:  I’m so happy.  I get to spend more time with my mom.  So...what’s in the envelope?  Gift for Carl and Rachel.
    Vicky:  No it’s…it’s for Jake.
    Allen looks past Vicky and sees Jake.
    Jake:  Is that right?  
    Vicky turns around and looks at Jake.
    Allen:  I’ll leave you two alone.
    Vicky:  Let’s go outside and talk.
    ------------------------------------------
    FRONT OF THE CORY MANSION
    Jake:  Is that what I think it is?
    Vicky gives him the envelope and Jake opens it and reads the contents.  Jake takes a deep breath.
    Jake:  Yep.
    Vicky: I’ve already signed it.  All you have to do is sign and turn it to the courts.  
    Jake:  This is final.
    Vicky:  This is what you wanted right?  A divorce?   Well you got it.
    Michele walks up to them.
    Michele:  A what?  You guys are getting a divorce?  It’s because of Bridget isn’t it?
    -------------------------------------------
    MEANWHILE...…
    Frankie is on her cell phone out near the gazebo.
    Frankie:  Cass where are you?  I’m waiting for you to arrive and I’m getting worried.
    Frankie hangs up and Felicia walks up to her.
    Felicia:  Frankie?  Is everything okay?
    Frankie:  I don’t know.  Cass said he was on his way.
    Felicia:  You know how Cass is.  I’m sure he’ll be here any minute.
    Frankie:  That was about a half hour ago.  I can’t shake this feeling that something is off.  I wish he’d get here.
    -------------------------------------------
    WAREHOUSE…
    Christy reaches into her pocket and takes a small cup out.
    Christy:  When I got taken away to that facility, I wondered how it would ever happen, but here we are.
    Cass:  Get to the point Christy!
    Christy:  It’s time Cass.  It’s time for me...to have a baby.
    Cass:  A baby?  You stayed in Bay City to get pregnant?  That doesn’t make any sense!
    Christy:  I went to Oakdale to see Dr. Weston.
    Cass:  Dr. Weston?  He’s the guy from that Swiss Clinic…
    Christy:  Yes he tried to speed up the aging process for Carly Snyder, Rose D’Angelo, and Emily Stewart.
    Cass:  I don’t think you wanted to see him because you wanted to get old.
    Christy:  No Cass, I want to get pregnant.  He gave me fertility treatments, and I circled this date ever since.  He told me it would happen around this time.  I would experience cramping.  
    Cass:  Christy for God’s sake will you tell me what’s going on?
    Christy:  Are you really this stupid?  I’m ovulating!
    Christy shows Cass the cup.
    Christy:  And all I need to get pregnant...is sperm....your sperm.
    Cass:  What the...you’re out of your mind if you think that I’m gonna give you my sperm so you can get pregnant!
    Christy extends the cup to Cass.
    Christy:  Sorry but you really don’t have much of a choice.  Maggie’s freedom depends on it.
    Cass:  So that’s your huge plan.  Your whole reason for staying in Bay City?
    Christy:  You got it.  Now go give me a sample.  I don’t have any books.  Think of Mary Frances.  Or better yet, think of me.
    Cass:  No way…
    Christy:  If you want to see Maggie again, you’ll do this….now!
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    OUTSIDE OF THE MANSION…
    Jake:  Honey it’s nobody’s fault okay.
    Vicky:  Honey let’s go inside.  Your dad and I are done here.
    Michele:  Mom you...you can’t let this happen.
    Vicky:  Sometimes...it’s better to let some things go.
    Vicky and Michele enter the mansion.  As they open the door, Paulina is there.
    Paulina:  Vicky, Michele.
    Vicky:  Excuse us Paulina.
    Paulina turns to look at Jake holding the papers in his hands.
    Paulina:  Is that?  Oh.  Jake I’m so sorry.
    Jake:  Don’t be.  It’s time.  
    Paulina:  Did Vicky just give you those?
    Jake:  Yes, but I don’t wanna focus on this right now.  Where’s Jack?
    Paulina:  Jack should be on his way.  He had to stop at the station real quick.
    ------------------------------------------------
    POLICE STATION, JACK’S OFFICE
    Jack:  I laugh because you’re one huge joke.  Why should I look at anything you have to give me?
    Grant:  Because your future depends on it, especially if it went viral.
    Jack:  Is this your latest ploy to keep me away from Paulina?  
    Grant:  You will thank me.  Go ahead.  Take a look.
    Grant gives Jack the jump drive.   Jack smiles.
    Jack:  If this gets you out of here.
    He sticks it in the USB of his desktop and is shocked.
    Jack:  What?  Where the hell did you get this?
    Grant smiles deviously.

    PART 2
    Grant:  I don’t see you chuckling now.  I knew you would enjoy the slideshow.
    Jack:  This isn’t real.
    Grant:  Oh it is real.  
    Jack:  This was…
    Grant:  A part of your past?  Those things have a way of coming back don’t they?
    Jack:  I wanted to help her.
    Grant:  Paulina?  You didn’t help her at all.  
    Jack:  You think this is gonna make Paulina love you?
    Grant:  I have to remove the obstacle keeping me from her, and that’s you.
    Jack:  So you’re gonna put this all over the internet?
    Grant:  Well the statute of limitations has long run on out on that...crime you and Paulina committed, but if I put it on the web, you would be out of a job.  In fact you would never work in law enforcement again.  You wouldn’t even be able to get a job as a security guard!
    Jack:  You claim to love Paulina?  You want to hurt her like this?
    Grant:  Of course not, that’s why I’m not going to let it go viral.  That decision really is up to you.  
    Jack:  How is that?
    Grant:  Carly, your daughters in Oakdale.  That’s where you should be.
    Jack:  So you had my family in mind when you got a hold of this?  Spare me the concern.
    Grant:  Go and work things out with your wife.
    Jack:  Or you’ll post this on FacePage?  You’re pathetic.
    Grant:  No.  What’s pathetic is that you’re a baby seller.  Did you see the last page?
    Jack slides to it and is further shocked.
    Jack:  DNA test.
    Grant:  What would everyone think?  Your family, your friends in Oakdale...that you sold an infant girl on the black market?  What would they think if they found out...that the little baby you sold to Scooter Carruthers on the black market that night...turned out to be Remy Woods?
    Jack:  Remy Woods.
    Grant:  Yes.  Remy Woods.  The girl that grew up in Foster homes, and came to Bay City as a con artist.
    Jack:  Shut up!
    Grant:  Remy and Paulina don’t even know who her father is, and that Remy’s father...is right here.  Right in front of me...you!
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    Frankie:  It’s not like Cass not to call if something has happened.  I gotta go and find…
    Felicia touches Frankie’s wrist.
    Felicia:  No...don’t do that.  I’m sure Cass just got held up.  He will be here.
    Frankie:  Felicia you’re shaking.  You’re sweating, too.  Are you okay?
    Felicia has a flashback
    (EPISODE 219)
    As they walk to the decorated living room, they notice Felicia at the liquor table.  Felicia is staring down at the liquor.  Now both of her hands are shaking, she’s sweating, and taking deep breaths.
    Then she flashes back to the present.
    Felicia:  Hot flashes more than likely.
    Felicia stares inside and looks directly at the liquor on the table.
    -----------------------------------------------------
    Cass gives Christy the cup, and Christy examines it.
    Christy:  Hmm.  Okay.
    Cass:  Now where’s my daughter?
    Christy:  You’ll have to go back to the Corys to see her.
    Cass:  She’s been at the Corys the whole time?
    Christy:  You should go now.  I’m sure Mary Frances is worried about you.
    Cass:  If you’ve done anything to hurt my daughter, I will come after you.
    Christy:  Oh Cass, and don’t think about calling the cops.  You have no proof that I did anything.  Besides, Maggie has staged her own kidnapping before.
    Cass rushes off and Christy makes a call to Brianna, whose back is turned to a bound, gagged, and unconscious Maggie.
    Christy:  I got it.
    Brianna:  Wow really?
    Christy:  You can drop Maggie off at the Corys.  Your secret remains safe.
    Christy hangs up and makes another call.
    Christy:  Dr. Weston it’s me. I have what we need...to make a baby.
    --------------------------------------------------
    ROOM
    Brianna hangs up and notices Maggie is starting to come to.  Brianna grabs another needle full of a sedative and runs over to inject Maggie.
    Brianna:  No.
    Maggie is unconscious again after another injection by Brianna.
    -------------------------------------------------
    Grant:  What’s the matter Jack?  Nothing to say?
    Jack:  You think Paulina’s going to love you after this?

    SECRET HOTEL ROOM
    Michael, wearing gray sweatpants and a gray hooded sweatshirt (with the hood on), walks into the dark room, and shuts the door. He turns on the light, and sees Matt Cory sitting at the table with a laptop.
    Michael: I just wanna say thank you for everything you’ve done.
    Matt: It’s no problem.
    Michael: It doesn’t seem that long ago that you were staking your claim to Donna.
    They laugh.
    Matt: That’s old news. You and Donna belong together.
    Michael: Well...what do you got?
    Matt (taking out a flash drive): It’s time for me to show you.
    ---------------------------------------
    HUDSON’S HOUSE
    Gregory paces back and forth worrying about Sharlene. He decides to go find out what is going on, and when he opens the door, John is there.
    John: Where are you going?
    Gregory: Haven’t you heard?
    John: Heard what?
    Gregory: It figures you don’t know. You’re too busy running around town with Felicia.
    John: Gregory we’ve been through this! I would not do that to your mother again.
    Gregory: If you weren’t spending time with your ex-mistress, you would know that mom could be in serious trouble.
    --------------------------------------

    CORY MANSION LIVING ROOM
    Rachel tends to a paraylzed Carl, who is lying on the couch. Sharlene, as Janice, has a bloody letter opener.
    Rachel: I’m going to get Cass.
    Janice: I will finish your husband off if you run. It’s either gonna be you, or Carl.
    As Janice approaches, Rachel engages her and the two struggle for the letter opener. Janice pushes Rachel against the wall behind the couch, then Rachel returns the action. Janice then pushes Rachel off of her, causing Rachel to hit the back of the couch, but Rachel regains her balance as Janice approaches, and the two continue to struggle for the letter opener.

    PART 2
    Matt takes the flash drive out of the computer.
    Michael: Are you sure that’s enough proof to get what you want?
    Matt: It should be more than enough to get Iris out of the company.
    Michael: I don’t think it is. I mean not without proof of authenticity.
    Matt: I’m expecting the hard copies any minute now.
    Suddenly there is a knock at the door. Matt answers it, signs for an envelope, and shuts the door.
    Matt: This must be it.
    Matt and Michael take out the contents of the envelope and Michael notices something.
    Michael: This looks like…
    Matt: Dad’s will that gives control of Cory Publishing to his eldest child. This is what Iris used to get the company away from my mother. She and Tucker McCall thought it was fake, but it wasn’t.
    Michael (looking it over): Yes it...it definitely looks real.
    Matt: Iris thinks she is in the driver’s seat. Look at this.
    Michael is shocked at the next document.
    Michael: This...can’t be.
    Matt: It’s the original birth certificate where your mom delivered you and your twin brother.
    Michael: So this is the proof. It’s true.
    Matt: According to this, you are entitled to full ownership of Cory.
    They both look at the name on the line next to “Father’s Name”, which reads MacKenzie Cory.
    --------------------------------------
    ABOUT AN HOUR LATER….
    John: What kind of trouble is she in?
    Gregory: I’m so surprised that you don’t know. Where were you all this time?
    John flashes back:
    LOVE MANSION
    John: It’s nothing to do with that. We have reason to believe that Michael is alive.
    John flashes back to the present.
    John: Dammit Gregory just tell me what happened to your mother!
    Gregory: Mitch, Cass,and Rachel came here looking for her earlier. They think she’s in some kind of danger.
    John: I know she hasn’t been herself lately. I hope that…
    John gets a phone call on his cell phone and answers.
    John: Oh my God.
    Gregory: What is it? Is it about mom?
    --------------------------------------
    ABOUT A HALF HOUR EARLIER AT THE CORY MANSION
    Sirens wail outside as Janice and Rachel continue to struggle, but Janice manages to push Rachel onto the floor, and Rachel grabs her right side, and Janice now has the upper hand, and the letter opener. Janice sees Rachel has been weakened.
    Janice: Say good-bye Rachel.

    FOYER
    The paramedics tend to Mitch, who is on a gurney. Jack and Toni approach Mitch.
    Jack: Mitch what happened here?
    Mitch: You...gotta get in..living room. Rachel’s in danger.
    Toni: I’m going in.
    Toni kicks the double doors open and points her gun at Janice.
    Toni (slowly approaching Janice): Put the weapon down! Put it down or I’ll be forced to shoot!
    Janice: If Rachel dies it’ll all be worth it.
    Janice approaches Rachel, and raises the letter opener to stab her, but Toni shoots Janice, causing Janice to drop the letter opener, and Janice hits her head when she hits the floor.

    MCKINNON’S HOUSE
    Michele walks in slowly through the front door, looking around. Rachel and Carl are right behind her.
    Rachel: How does it feel being back home?
    Michele: It hasn’t changed that much since…
    Carl: I’m sure your family will be thrilled once they learn of your return.
    Michele: It feels so weird being back.
    Rachel: How so?
    Michele: I dunno. I don’t know how anyone’s doing. My parents; my sister; Cory. I wanna see Cory. Can you guys take me to see him?
    Rachel and Carl look at each other, wondering if Michele seeing Cory would be a good idea.
    --------------------------------------------
    CHURCH
    Stacey and Lindsay are in the foyer as the guests file in.
    Stacey: I’m gonna go help Felicia get ready.
    After Stacey leaves, Gregory shows up.
    Gregory: Wow. Look at my girl.
    Lindsay: Hey there handsome.
    They kiss.
    Gregory: When is this thing getting started?
    Lindsay: Soon.
    Gregory: I’m gonna...take my seat, and watch for you.
    Jake, Vicky, and Bridget show up, and creates an awkward moment for the four of them.
    Gregory: The McKinnons. How’s everybody?
    Bridget and Vicky each shoot a dirty look at Lindsay.
    Bridget: I’m going inside.
    Vicky: Good idea.
    Vicky leads the way but Bridget turns around..
    Bridget: Dad aren’t you coming?
    Jake: I wanna speak to Lindsay for a second.
    Bridget: Why?
    Jake: Bridget, go in with your mother.
    Bridget: I have no clue why you would wanna speak with this liar.
    Bridget goes inside the church area, leaving Jake and Lindsay alone.
    Lindsay: I thought I’d be the last person you’d wanna talk to.
    Jake: I’m gonna make this quick. Look Lindsay I...I don’t blame you for what Vicky and Stacey did. They conspired to keep the truth from me. Nothing’s gonna change the fact that you’re my daughter.
    Lindsay: I hate how all that went down.
    Jake: Well..we can’t change the past, but if you’re willing, we can try and forge some type of relationship.
    Lindsay: That might not go over well with Bridget.
    Jake: I think in time she’ll learn to accept you. When I think about it it’s…almost like a miracle. I lost one daughter, but I gained another.
    -------------
    CHURCH
    Bridget spots Cory sitting in a pew left of the aisle, and sits next to him.
    Bridget: Hey you.
    Cory: Hey. You look great.
    Bridget: Thank you. You, too.
    The two smile at each other. Meanwhile, John and Sharlene are sitting in the same set of pews behind Bridget and Cory.
    Sharlene: You’re gonna sit here? Kirkland’s family is sitting on the other side.
    John: I wanna sit here with you...my wife.
    John puts his right hand on Sharlene’s left thigh, and she scoots further to the right, creating a little space between them, causing John’s hand to be placed on the pew.
    Sharlene: Suit yourself.
    Gregory comes up to them, and sits between John and Sharlene.

    AT THE ALTAR, Vicky is there with Grant and her two sons, Kirkland and Steven.
    Vicky: Aren’t you excited?
    Grant: Of course he is. Why wouldn’t he be?
    Steven: No fights. Not here, not today guys.
    Kirkland: Thank you big bro. The voice of reason.
    Vicky: We wouldn’t dream of doing something like that right now. At least I wouldn’t. What about you Grant?
    Grant: I certainly wouldn’t entertain the thought of ruining my son’s day.
    Steven: Where’s Jake?
    Grant gets a call on his cell phone.
    Kirkland: Dad really?
    Grant: Sorry son I gotta take this.
    Grant goes off into a private corner and answers his call.
    Grant: Christy this isn’t a good time. The delivery’s been made? Good.

    Lindsay: Wow. I certainly didn’t expect this from you.

    Paulina: Wow. Hi there.
    Jack: Wow is the operative word here. You look great.
    Paulina: Thank you.
    Jack: Are you ready?
    The two go arm in arm to the car.
    ---------------------
    Carl: Maybe we should wait.
    Rachel: Carl’s right. You have to give yourself some time to get back to your life. You’ve missed significant time with your family.
    Michele: I’ll have plenty of time to do that. I really would like to see Cory.
    Michele sees a tablet on the table and turns it on, but looks at it strangely.
    Rachel: What are you looking at?
    Michele: These words. I really can’t make them out. What does this say?
    Carl and Rachel look at each other again.
    Michele: What’s going on? You guys keep looking at each other.
    Rachel: You can’t…
    Michele: Read? I can’t read? That’s impossible.
    Carl: It could be a result of your brain injury. You may have to re-learn.
    Michele: Learn how to read? I don’t have time for that! I was accepted to Harvard, now you’re telling me I might be illiterate?
    Rachel: Nobody’s saying that at all darling.
    Carl: Once we reunite you with your parents, they should take you to a neurologist.
    -------------------------
    BACK AT THE CHURCH
    Jake: Felicia you look great.
    Felicia: Thank you very much. I thought I wasn’t going to make it on time.
    Stacey: Jake?
    Jake looks at Stacey, and walks into the church. Stacey, a bit defeated, re-gathers herself, as Frankie, Cass, and Charlie join them.

    Allen: Congratulations cuz.
    Kirkland: Thanks.
    Donna: Well it feels like they’re gonna start soon. We should know when a wedding’s about to start.
    Michael: Yeah we’ve been married four times.
    Donna: Where’s Amanda?
    Allen: She’s gonna meet us at the reception at Tops.
    Michael: There he is. Minister Jones.
    Minister Jones: Sorry I’m a bit late, but let’s get this thing going.
    Donna, Michael, and Allen sit as the music begins to play. Grant thinks back to his conversation a few minutes ago about the “delivery” which puts a smile on his face, then he notices Jack and Paulina walk in together, and his smile turns quickly to a frown.
    The double doors that connect the foyer and the front are opened, and Stacey is the first to walk down the aisle. Lindsay, Felicia, and Frankie do the same and take their places.
    IN THE FOYER, Cass looks at Charlie smiling as the organist begins to play “Here Comes the Bride”. Cass sighs.
    Cass: Time for me to give away my little girl. Are you ready?
    Charlie: Yes dad. Sure am.
    The guests stand up and marvel at how Charlie looks in her wedding dress, as Cass escorts her down the aisle. Cass sits down in left pew up front, and leaves Charlie standing opposite Kirkland, as the two prepare to finally be married.

    ANOTHER WORLD 224
    Party at the Corys continues
    Carl makes his grand entrance.  Grant and Christy celebrate apparent victories
     
    PART 1
    CORY MANSION…
    CHRISTY’S SUITE
    Christy walks up to the door with a smile on her face.  As she puts the key in the slot, Grant walks up to her.
    Grant:  Hmm what’s gotten into you?
    Christy:  You don’t wanna know Grant.
    Grant:  Well, I’ve got some news to share with you.  
    Christy opens the door and they both walk in.
    Christy:  You look rather chipper.
    Grant:  And I have plenty of reason to be optimistic.  I’m very close to getting what I want.
    Christy:  Hmm I’ve heard that before.
    Grant:  Oh no Christy.  I’m about to hit paydirt with this one.
    Christy:  Yep.
    Grant:  You don’t believe me do you?  I hate that Paulina’s gonna be hurt by this.
    Christy:  Oh so you do care about Miss Muffet’s feelings?
    Grant:  She’s probably at the Corys now, wondering where Jack is.
    Christy:  Oh my God.  What have you done with the detective?
    Grant:  Oh don’t be ridiculous.  He’s fine, physically anyway.
    Christy:  So what happened?
    Grant:  Let’s just say that we will never see Detective Snyder’s ugly face in Bay City again.
    Christy:  You need to give credit where credit is due.
    Grant:  Killjoy.
    Christy:  If it weren’t for me you wouldn’t be where you are now.
    Grant:  You didn’t do anything you weren’t supposed to do.  You were just living up to your end of the bargain.  I get you out of prison, and you get me the evidence I need to get Paulina.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Paulina walks out onto the gazebo and gets a phone call from Jack.
    Paulina:  Jack where are you?  You sound like you’re driving.
    Jack:  I had an emergency.  One of the girls.  Carly called.
    Paulina:  So you’re...headed to Oakdale.  
    Jack:  Yes.
    Paulina:  Oh alright, well I hope everything’s okay.  Call me when you get there.
    Jack:  Me, too.  I love you.
    Paulina:  Love you, too.  Bye.
    Paulina turns around and Amanda walks up to her.
    Amanda:  What happened?
    Paulina:  That was Jack.  He’s not coming.
    Amanda:  I’m sorry about that.
    Paulina:  Where’s Rachel?  
    Amanda:  I think she’s still upstairs with Carl.
    --------------------------------------------
    Rachel, Carl, Cory and Elizabeth are in Carl and Rachel’s room.  
    Rachel:  I’m not ready to do this.  I can’t.
    Carl:  Yes.  You can.  We’re going to do this.
    Cory:  Why did you invite everyone here so you can tell them you’re sick?
    Carl:  We’ve made a difference in a lot of people’s lives.  I owe them the truth.  
    Elizabeth:  Look dad if you don’t want to do it…
    Carl:  My darling daughter, I can do anything with you all at my side, now let’s go.

    PART 2
    At the Corys
    Jake comes out, takes off his tuxedo jacket, and places it gently on Paulina’s shoulders.
    Jake:  A little chilly out here.
    Paulina:  Thank you.
    Jake:  What happened to Jack?
    Paulina:  He said he had to go back to Oakdale.  Something wrong with his daughter.
    Jake:  Oh.
    Paulina:  I can’t help but thinking that something is wrong.  I mean Carly is there to take care of anything with his children.  He could’ve gone to Oakdale in the morning.
    Jake looks out at the night sky.
    Jake:  Yeah it doesn’t seem to add up.
    Paulina:  How are Bridget and Michele?
    Jake:  I have no idea.  As much as I’m trying to keep them from killing each other, I’m the one dying inside.  It hurts to see my daughters fighting like that.
    Paulina:  I can only imagine.
    Jake:  The thing I fear the most is that things between are probably gonna get worse before they get better, and I’m powerless to stop it.  So reminiscent of Marley and Vicky after Marley’s accident.  She was hell bent on getting back at Vicky, and Michele is reminding me of her.
    Paulina:  Marley just needed some help, and she got better.  Maybe that will happen for Michele, too.
    Jake:  I don’t know what to do Paulina I…my heart is breaking over this.  To walk out here and see them at each other’s throats like that.  They used to be inseparable, and now they hate each other.
    Paulina:  Their bond will prevail over anything they’re going through right now.
    Paulina puts her right hand on Jake’s left cheek so she can comfort him.
    Paulina:  You have to believe that.  
    Jake:  Thanks.
    Paulina:  Come here.
    They hug.
    Paulina:  They’ll be back to being sisters again.  Just hang in there.  Man I...look at you and your love for your children.  You’re nothing like the man I met twenty five years ago.
    Jake:  Your priorities change when you have children.  They’ve been number one since Vicky gave birth to them.
    Paulina:  You’ve been a wonderful father.
    Jake:  And you a great mother.
    Paulina:  I still can’t wrap my head around why Jack isn’t here.
    Jake:  It doesn’t seem right at all.  
    Paulina:  We just made love at my house and he said he had to stop at the station.
    Jake:  So we gotta find out what caused him to have to go back to Oakdale.
    Paulina:  Or who?
    Jake:  Wait a minute.  You think Grant may have something to do with it?
    Paulina:  I don’t know, but I’m going to find out.
    ------------------------------------------
    Christy:  I must say, I have never seen you so confident about this whole thing.  You really believe that you’re close to getting her.
    Grant:  Oh I am.  
    Christy:  Did you ever stop to think that Paulina will hate you after you show her what you showed Jack?
    Grant:  Of course I have.  Don’t you think it doesn’t kill me to do this to her.  I love her.  I always have.
    Christy:  So you’ve said.
    Grant:  It’s true.  After she gets over her initial contempt, she’ll realize how she really feels about me.
    Christy:  Yeah...right.
    Grant:  You’re laughing now but you won’t be later.
    Grant goes over to his bar and pours two glasses of brandy.
    Grant:  I think we should propose a toast.
    Christy:  I’d love to, but I don’t think I should be drinking any liquor.
    Grant:  What do you mean?  It’s not like you’re…pregnant?
    Christy:  I don’t know yet.
    Grant:  What happened?
    Christy:  Cass gave me what I wanted.  The whole reason I stayed in Bay City after I got out of prison.
    Grant:  Cass couldn’t have slept with you…voluntarily anyway.
    Christy:  I may be a lot of things but a rapist is not one of them.
    Grant:  No you’re just a husband killer.  That’s better.
    Christy:  Dr. Weston has already done the procedure, and he’s taken a sample of my blood to make sure.
    Grant:  That’s what you wanted?  To be pregnant with Cass’s baby?
    Christy:  I went to see Dr. Weston so I can get fertility treatments, and this is the time that I was ovulating.
    Grant:  You let a doctor who aged three women give you fertility treatments?     
    Christy:  You’re lucky I’m telling you this.
    Grant:  How did you get Cass to give you a sperm sample?  You must have threatened one of his children.
    Christy:  You make me out to be such a monster.  I did what I had to do to get what I wanted, and now I wait.  
    Grant:  What are you going to do if you’re pregnant?
    Christy:  No “ifs”.  I am going to be pregnant.
    Grant:  Are you going to tell Cass and Frankie?
    Christy:  Don’t mention her name.  I feel guilty about having to hurt her like this.  She’s the only real friend I’ve ever had.
    Grant:  With friends like you…
    Christy:  What is that supposed to mean?  I love Mary Frances and I cherish our friendship.
    Grant sips his brandy.
    Grant:  Sure you do.
    Christy:  I wanted a baby.  My son is gonna have a sibling.
    Grant:  Kirkland does, too.
    Christy:  Yeah he does.  Steven, Bridget and Michele.
    Grant:  I’m not talking about them.
    Christy:  Here comes more babble.
    Grant:  I got the results of a DNA test, and I’m the father.
    Christy:  So you have another child?
    Grant:  Surprisingly enough, Carl Hutchins was the one who gave me the DNA test.  His dying wish to keep me in suspense.  Revenge for Ryan’s death.
    ---------------------------------------------
    Carl is in he and Rachel’s bedroom alone when he goes to the door, he sees Ryan, dressed in blue jeans, sneakers and a blue buttoned shirt.
    Carl:  Son.
    Ryan:  You seem calm.
    Carl:  I’m at peace.  I know that my family will be taken care of.  It’s time for me to tell everyone.  Everyone I’ve...helped.  Everyone I’ve hurt.
    Ryan:  You’ve definitely lead an interesting life.
    Carl:  I’ve come such a long way.  I’ve killed people.  I’ve terrorized others.  Then I married Rachel and had two children...and they love me.  My precious children.  All of them.  They don’t care about what I’ve done in my past.  Their love is what’s getting me through this.  Giving me the courage to announce to this to the world.
    ----------------------------------------------------
    Amanda is walking through the living room and Allen stops her.
    Allen:  Hey there beautiful.
    Amanda:  Hi.
    They kiss.
    Allen:  I haven’t gotten a chance to tell you.  My mother is cancer free.
    Amanda:  Nicole?  That’s great.  Congratulations.
    Allen:  Looks like you’re headed somewhere.
    Amanda:  Yeah I was just gonna go up and check on my mom.
    Allen:  Everything okay?
    Amanda takes a deep breath and looks away.
    Allen:  Amanda?
    Amanda:  I’m...not at liberty to say.  
    Allen:  Something’s definitely on your mind.
    Amanda:  I was sworn to secrecy.  My mother…
    The guests’ attention is taken as they all look at the living room entry way at Carl, Rachel, Cory, and Elizabeth, who stand together  hand in hand.
    Carl:  Good evening everyone.  Thank you for coming.

    INSTITUTION
    Sharlene is with Frankie in the visitor’s area.
    Sharlene: You must be getting tired of visiting people at mental facilities.
    Frankie: Ha ha ha very funny. You’re my aunt. This is a little different than Christy.
    Sharlene: I know she’s your friend, but it’s probably for the best that she get the help that she needs.
    Frankie: I think that’s true, but I didn’t come to talk about Christy, I came to see you.
    Sharlene: I have my therapy session later.
    Frankie: With Steven?
    Sharlene: Yes.
    Frankie: I...I think it’s a good thing.
    Sharlene: It should help.
    Frankie: I want you to get well Aunt Sharlene. I’ve been a little worried about you.
    Sharlene (sighing): You’re so sweet, just like Emma. I’m gonna get the help I need here, although it may be a little difficult for me to focus and concentrate.
    Frankie: Is it because of everything that Janice did?
    Sharlene: No. That actually pales in comparison to what’s on my mind?
    Frankie: So what’s bothering you?
    Sharlene: Gregory.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    John knocks on the door and Felicia opens it.
    Felicia: John. Hi.
    John: Is Mitch here?
    Felicia: No he went out. You don’t look too good. Come on in.
    After John enters and Felicia attempts to close it, Gregory emerges, and notices Felicia didn’t close the door completely.

    CAVANAUGH CLINIC IN MONTICELLO - Rachel is on her cell phone.
    Rachel: I’m sorry I haven’t been in touch with you. Your father is making great progress. Honey I can’t tell you that. Just know that we’ll be coming home soon.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    IN A LIMOUSINE - Cory hangs up his cell phone and turns to Iris.
    Iris: Why didn’t you tell Rachel we were on our way?
    Cory: I wanna surprise her.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Rachel hangs up her cell phone, and turns to a comatose Carl.
    Rachel (sighing): He’s probably gonna be angry with me, but I can’t tell him where you are. I hope he’ll understand why. Cory reminds me of you.
    Suddenly, Rachel hears a voice and turns around, and sees Marissa, who gives a puzzled look to Rachel.
    Marissa: Cory? Who's Cory?
    Rachel: Hi. May I help you?
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Sharlene: This whole thing has taken a toll on him.
    Frankie: He’s a strong young man. He will get through this, as will you, and John.
    Sharlene: Gregory wasn’t happy about the fact that John had me committed.
    Frankie: I’m sure he’ll understand after he sees how well you’re going to become. I’m hoping that you’ll be released to come to Charlie’s wedding.
    Sharlene: That’s right. I’d love to help with the preparations.
    Frankie: I sure could use it. I’m gonna have my hands full getting her ready to be married.
    Sharlene: I DO have some experience.
    Frankie: Josie.
    Sharlene: That’s right.
    Frankie: You know what, I want you to focus on getting well. I’ll keep an eye on Gregory for you.

    AT FELICIA’S, Gregory is listening in on John and Felicia…
    Felicia: Can I get you something?
    John: No I...I just need to talk.
    Felicia: Okay.
    John: I’m confused. I hope I didn’t make a mistake.
    Felicia: You’re talking about Sharlene?
    John: I had her committed to an institution so she wouldn’t be charged with murder.
    Felicia: Seems like you regret it. You’re trying to save her.
    John: I was so afraid of this happening. Sharlene and I came so far.
    Felicia: You did everything you could.
    John: I told Dr. Taylor to not let her remember anything about the day Grant was shot in the Center. That was my first flub.
    Felicia touches John’s shoulder, and Gregory is able to see through the crack of the door.
    Felicia: You have done nothing but try to protect her. You are a good husband John. You’re a good MAN.
    Felicia and John hug, and Gregory becomes angry as he watches them.

    Vicky expresses her displeasure; Jake and Michael try to reach the twins
     
    CORY MANSION ROOM
    Jake tends to Bridget’s injuries after her fight with Michele in the Cory Mansion gazebo:
    Jake gives Bridget some ice wrapped in a cloth.
    Jake:  Put this on your lip.
    Bridget:  Ow.
    Jake:  What the hell is going on with you two?
    Bridget:  You see how crazy she is!  She attacked me.
    Jake:  Why would she do that?
    Bridget:  I have no idea what goes on in her mind.  You guys need to get her some help.
    Jake:  Are you sure you didn’t provoke her?
    Bridget:  Oh my God, dad, are you saying this is my fault?  That I am the reason she wanted to fight me?
    Jake:  If there is anything you’re holding back you need to not.  I’m gonna ask you one more time.  Did you provoke Michele into attacking you?
    Bridget:  Dad what are you talking about?  You know something don’t you?
    Jake takes out his cell phone and shows Bridget the FacePage posts.
    Jake:  These.  This is why Michele came after you.  You told everyone in America what happened in the hospital.
    Bridget:  She cut herself with those scissors and made it looked like I attacked her.  She tried to turn all of you against me!
    Jake:  I remember when you two were close.  Your mother and I brought you home from the hospital.  So tiny.  So perfect.  You two did everything together when you were growing up.  You wanted to wear the same clothes.  What happened to you two?  It breaks my heart to see my girls fighting like this.
    Bridget:  Michele needs to get over her anger.
    Jake:  You did some questionable things to your sister, and these are the consequences.  She’s mad as hell.
    Bridget:  She needs help.
    Jake:  And you took advantage of it somehow.
    Jake begins to shake his head.
    Jake:  No there’s got to be more to it than just those FacePage posts.
    Donna walks in.
    Donna:  I can venture a pretty good guess as to what that is.
    Michael blots Michele’s eye with an ice pack.
    Michael:  Bridget gave you a shiner huh?
    Michele:  She’s given me much worse than that.
    Michael:  I know.
    Michele:  So you actually side with me on this one?
    Michael:  I’m not on anyone’s side.  I don’t want to see this at all.  My granddaughters fighting.  No I’m not on either side of this.
    Michele:  Why don’t you go talk to Bridget?  She started this whole mess.
    Michael:  You’re not blameless in this either honey.  Everybody has got to take their own responsibility in this or it will never get resolved.  It’s only going to get worse.
    Michele:  Well I have no intention of making amends.  Not after what she did.  There’s no going back to the way we were.
    Michael:  You don’t mean that.  No matter what differences you two have, she’s always going to be your sister.  No matter how much you think you hate her, that will never change.
    Michele:  She took great pleasure in humiliating me on social media.  She loved flaunting it in my face.
    Michael:  Flaunting what?
    Michele:  Grandma didn’t tell you huh?  Bridget and Cory screwed right under your noses.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Donna:  I bet you…threw it in Michele’s face.
    Bridget:  Grandma what are you talking about?
    Donna:  You told Michele that you and Cory had sex.
    Jake:  What?
    Donna:  You used that to set her off didn’t you?
    Bridget:  I’m…I’m totally shocked by this.  You all are taking her side.  You’re trying to say she was justified in attacking me.
    Jake:  No.  We just wanna get to the bottom of what’s going on.
    Donna:  Both of you have to share the blame in this.
    Bridget:  What do you want me to do?  You want me to go back in time and change what happened at the prom?  Do you want to re-seal her acceptance letter to Harvard?  Well I can’t, and everyone has gotta get over it, including Michele.
    Donna:  Don’t you at least have some remorse  about what it’s done to her?
    Jake:  Donna’s right.  You may need to apologize to Michele.
    Bridget:  Why should I do that…when I’m not sorry.  The one that should be apologizing is mom.  She’s the one who set this all in motion.
    Donna:  What does Victoria have to do with this?
    Bridget:  She loves Michele more than she loves me.  Everything I did was to get her attention; to earn her favor, and I never did.  I’m not gonna let Michele win.
    Jake:  My God.  Listen to yourself.  You haven’t taken any responsibility for what you’ve done.
    Donna grabs Bridget’s shoulders.
    Donna:  Listen to me!  This has got to stop tonight!  I’m not gonna let you and Michele kill each other.
    Jake:  Neither am I.
    ------------------------------------------------------
    Steven:  We like each other a lot and you need to accept it.
    Vicky:  The hell I will!  That woman is trouble, and she’s going to hurt you.
    Steven:  She’s a wonderful, sweet, caring woman.
    Vicky:  She’s a homewrecker and God knows what else!
    Steven:  She made a mistake.  You of all people should understand after the ones you’ve made.
    Vicky slaps him.
    Vicky:  Don’t you ever talk to me that way!   I forbid you to be with Joy.
    Steven:  I’m a grown man.  You can’t forbid to me do anything.  I want to be with Joy, and we’re gonna be together.
    Joy walks up to them with two drinks.
    Joy:  Oh I’m sorry Vicky.  Do you want me to go get you a drink?
    Vicky:  Shut up you bitch!  If you do anything to hurt my son or my family, you’re gonna have to deal with me, and that’s not gonna be any fun….at all.
    Steven:  Watch how you talk to her!
    Vicky:  Don’t be surprised when she turns out not to be the woman you think she is.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    IN THE LIVING ROOM….
    Frankie walks up to Charlie and Kirkland.
    Charlie:  Mom what’s wrong?  You look…
    Frankie:  Worried?  That’s because I am.  Have you heard from your father or Maggie?
    Charlie:  No.  
    Frankie:  They should be here by now.
    Kirkland:  I’m sure they’ll be along soon.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Cass walks up to the front door of the Cory Mansion and finds Maggie lying in front of it.
    Cass:  Maggie!
    Cass tries to get her to come to, but she remains unconscious.
    Cass:  My God what happened to you?
    Cass picks her up and takes her away.

    PART 2
    Michael:  I bet you’re angry about that.
    Michele:  Not really.  Not just about that.  Bridget has been jealous of me for a long time.  She admitted it before we fought.
    Michael:  Whatever is going on between you two needs to stop.  You’re sisters.
    Michele:  She didn’t think about our sisterhood when she spiked Cory’s punch with vodka at the prom.
    MIchael (sighing):  It’s all in the past.  You have to move on from that, or else your anger is gonna eat you alive.  You might do something you’ll end up regretting.  
    Vicky walks in.
    Michele:  Do you really think I’m gonna hurt Bridget?
    Vicky:  Of course she wouldn’t.  Bridget is the one who started all of this.  Everything that she did before.  Her jealousy.
    Michele:  And the divorce.  It’s all her fault.
    Michael:  What?
    Michele:  Mom and dad are getting a divorce because of Bridget.
    -----------------------------------------------------
    Bridget:  How are you gonna do anything when you and mom are getting a divorce?
    Donna:  Jake.  You and Victoria are going through with it?
    Jake:  Donna this isn’t the time.  
    Donna:  How are you supposed to help Bridget and Michele mend their fences when you and my daughter can’t?
    Jake:  I’m not talking about this with you.  
    Bridget:  Everybody needs to be talking to Michele.  She’s sick.
    Donna:  You both are playing a part in your feud honey, and you both need counseling.
    Bridget:  She needs to be locked up in a padded room!
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Frankie gets a call on her cell phone.  It’s Cass.
    Frankie:  Cass where have you been I’ve been worried sick about you!  Why aren’t you  here?
    Cass:  I’m at the hospital with Maggie.
    Frankie:  Oh no.  Is everything okay?
    Cass:  I’m having her checked out.
    Frankie:  I’ll be right there.
    Charlie and Kirkland approach Frankie.
    Charlie:  Mom what’s going on?
    Frankie: Your father’s with Maggie at the hospital.  I’m going.
    Charlie turns to Kirkland.
    Kirkland:  Go ahead babe.  
    Charlie:  I’ll call you.
    Kirkland kisses her and as Charlie leaves, Kirkland gets a text from Eric.  
    It reads:   I’m hungry, let me know when u r coming to gimme something to eat.  Don’t keep me waiting long.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Allen is with KC.
    KC:  This is a nice little party.
    Allen:  Yeah I wonder why Carl decided to throw it.
    KC:  I dunno.  I’m sure we’ll find out soon.
    Allen:  Hey uh...I’m glad we’re...talking you know?
    KC gives a half smile.
    KC:  Toni said I should give you a chance.
    Allen:  As soon as I found out about you being my daughter, I wanted a relationship with you.  If I’d known sooner…
    KC:  Why are you blaming yourself for that?  It wasn’t your fault.
    Allen:  Reginald kept me from my mother, and your mother kept me from you.  I want us to be close KC.  
    KC:  I’d like the same thing but you need to stop trying to meddle.
    Allen:  You’re talking about Eric Stenbeck.  
    KC:  I like him.
    Allen:  Look you’re a grown woman.  I can’t tell you what to do.
    KC:  Correct.
    Allen:  But I’m gonna keep an eye on him, because I’m not gonna let anything happen to you.
    KC:  Look I get you want us to have a relationship but you can’t come to me trying to be this overprotective dad.  That’s not gonna work.
    Allen:  Gotcha.  Whatever you want.
    KC:  I wonder where the rest of our family is.
    Steven and Joy walk up to them together.
    Steven:  That’s what I was wondering.  I haven’t seen my sisters, my brother, anybody.
    KC:  You guys look cozy.  Are you dating  or something?
    Joy snuggles up to Steven.
    Joy:  Yep.  We are.  Too bad Vicky doesn’t approve.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    VIcky:  Honey I’m sorry you found out the way you did.
    Michael:  Why are you blaming Bridget?
    Michele:  Because it is.  All the problems our family has is because of her and her schemes.
    Vicky:  Our problems were way deeper than Bridget’s machinations.  Listen, let’s go downstairs and join the party okay.  
    Michael:  Well you better keep her and Michele apart.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Donna:  Don’t say that about your sister!
    Bridget:  She’s crazy.
    Jake:  Stop it!  Now!
    Bridget:  Michele blames me for you guys divorcing.  Do you?
    Jake:  Of course not.  Look I don’t wanna focus on that.

    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.

    P.I. FIRM - Jake walks into the office while Frankie sits at her desk looking at her computer monitor.
    Jake: Do we work here anymore?
    Frankie: There’s a tranquility about this place. Helps to clear my head.
    Jake: You’re exactly right.
    The two are quiet, then Jake peeks at Frankie’s monitor, which is off.
    Jake: Busy huh?
    Frankie: Oh. No not at all. I’m just thinking about something...no not Cass.
    Jake: That’s a bit of a surprise.
    Frankie: Someone came up to me at the Center the other day before Stacey, Lindsay and I went to get fitted for our dresses. He knew my name.
    Jake: Sounds a bit weird.
    Frankie: Very. I wonder who he is.

    CAVANAUGH CLINIC - Joy faces Reginald in his office.
    Joy: Does your word carry any weight?
    Reginald: Just because you did me a couple of favors doesn’t mean anything.
    Joy: What are you talking about? I dove into the river and retrieved the gun that Donna shot you with. I burned down the Harbor Club. What more could you possibly want?
    Reginald: Oh, there is something else.
    Joy: What did Thomasina Todd ever do to you? She’s one of the sweetest, kindest people I know, and you made her sick. Who do you think you are? What makes you think you can play God with people’s lives?

    Vicky: Gee thanks.
    Grant: I know I’m not your favorite person.
    Vicky: How perceptive of you.
    Grant: Maybe you wanted to talk about it. I mean, Kirkland is getting married in a few days and, we are his parents. Don’t you think it’s time we start getting along. I can’t take him away from you now.
    Vicky sighs, but realizes that Grant might be right but…
    Vicky: We are Kirkland’s mother and father. We will always have that in common, but after everything you’ve done, we will never be friends.
    Grant: You’ll never change.
    Vicky: However, I’ve got a question for you. Who were you on the phone with?

    PRISON MENTAL FACILITY - A guard holding a folder walks to Christy Carson’s room.
    Guard: Carson.
    Christy: What’s going on?
    The guard gives the folder contents to Christy, who reads the papers. Her face lights up.
    Christy: Is this...what I think it is?
    Guard: It’s a fax from the governor’s office. You’re free to go.

    Reginald rises out of his chair and walks up to Joy. They are now face to face.
    Reginald: I’m capable of a lot of things, and I will not be questioned by the likes of you.
    Joy: You’re a sick bastard!
    Reginald: You almost broke up by granddaughter’s marriage. Who better to carry out my plan.
    Joy: Your plan! You got Thomasina sick and you are the only one who can make her well!
    Reginald: Didn’t anyone teach you that everything has a cost? I mean, your mother was a prostitute right?
    Joy raises her right hand to slap him, but Reginald grabs her wrist to stop, and squeezes as Joy winces in pain.
    Reginald: If you want Thomasina to live, you better lose the attitude and complete your next task. Now get the hell out of my office!
    Joy coddles her wrist to ease the pain and as she leaves, Karen barges in with papers, and gives them to Reginald.
    Karen: Sorry to interrupt. This couldn’t wait.
    Reginald: What? How did she get a hold of this information?
    Karen: I found this in Dr. McCleary’s office. She knows the truth.
    Reginald: What?
    Karen: The plastic surgery; the drug...everything.
    Reginald: Did you stop her? Where the hell is she?
    Karen: She escaped with the patient.
    Reginald: Why did you let them get away?
    Karen: She knocked me out, but it’s like I told you before, she won’t get far.

    Dr. Obrecht: I know a lot of sings. I know what Olivia Jerome did to you. You were pregnant with Duke Lavery’s baby.
    Anna: You use the memory of my dead child to play some game of yours? You’re a real sick bitch!
    Dr. Obrecht: No I’m a highly intelligent woman, who knows zat your baby is still alive.
    Anna: Get the hell out of here!
    Dr. Obrecht: Suit yourself. You don’t tell me where Cesar is, I don’t tell you where your child is.
    Anna: GET OUT!

    Emma: I’m fine.
    Robin: I was gonna take her to see Patrick, but she wanted to see
    grandma first.

    Patrick goes to the coffee table, gets his cell phone, and shows Britt a picture of a baby.
    Patrick: Do you see that? Do you see it?!
    Britt: That’s your son.
    Patrick: That’s right. My son, and Sabrina took him out of Port Charles!
    Britt: That was a mutual decision wasn’t it?
    Patrick: Robin and I had just gotten a divorce, and I wasn’t in any condition to be a father to him because of the drugs, but it still hurts Britt! It hurts that I can’t see my son, and Robin won’t let me see Emma unsupervised! Like I’m gonna hurt my kids!
    Britt: I mean, I can’t blame them…
    A tear drops on Patrick’s left cheek...
    Patrick: What kind of mother keeps their children away from their...own...FATHER! I love my kids.
    Britt (gently): Sabrina and Robin aren’t the kind of women who will keep you from seeing your children.
    Patrick: When you bring me the stuff, it numbs the pain I feel from everything I’ve lost this past year, and you are helping me more than you know.
    Patrick moves closer to Britt and begins to kiss her, and she tries to resist, but she can’t. Meanwhile, Robin and Emma approach the front door.

    AT THE HUDSONS
    John and Sharlene are on the couch.  John is sitting up while Sharlene lies in his lap.  
    Sharlene:  That never gets old does it?
    John:  What?
    Sharlene:  You making love to me.
    John:  I will never tire of that.
    Gregory walks in and observes his parents.
    Gregory:  Man, this is the happiest I’ve seen you two in a long time.
    Sharlene:  We look therefore we are.
    John:  Your mother and I have gotten close all over again.  Feels much better this time.
    Gregory:  That’s...that’s great.  I wish I could feel that way about Lindsay.
    Sharlene:  Do you wanna talk about it honey?
    Gregory:  If I’m California, she’s New York.  That’s how close Lindsay and I have been lately.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    STACEY’S APARTMENT…
    Lindsay and Charlie walk in with their shopping bags.
    Lindsay:  That was great.  Oh my God.  
    Charlie:  If I had enough money I would have brought this dress in three different colors.
    Lindsay:  The one you picked out was perfect.
    Charlie:  I kinda got what they call buyer’s remorse.  I should have gotten the baby blue one.
    Lindsay:  Oh come on we’re not gonna regret anything okay.
    Charlie:  Except...for the way I treated my husband earlier.
    Lindsay:  You know you’re very lucky to have a husband like Kirkland.  He’s so protective of you.  
    Charlie:  But there’s nothing to protect me from.  When I saw him arguing with his mother, I saw something different.  He didn’t want to crash the wedding reception.
    Lindsay:  Sometimes it’s guilt by association.  
    Charlie:  Not always though cuz.
    Lindsay:  But didn’t he hide the fact that he was Christy’s son until that day they came to Tops?  He was a barista at the coffee shop.  
    Charlie:  The more I talk to Eric, the more I find out that he’s not like his mother.
    Lindsay:  I dunno.  You have to be on your husband’s side with this.  If Kirkland wants you to stay away from Eric, then I think you should at least consider it.  Kirkland loves you.
    Charlie:  I hope that Kirkland isn’t jealous of Eric or something.  He knows how much I love him.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    CHRISTY’S SUITE
    Eric walks in.
    Christy:  Son it’s so good to see you.  Thanks for coming.
    Eric:  What’s up mom?
    Christy:  You’re still mad at me aren’t you?
    Eric tries to fight his angry front, but to no avail…
    Eric:  No, I’m not.  I just don’t want people to look at me differently because of what we did at Tops.
    Christy:  Honey I’ve been trying to tell people that it wasn’t your idea, but we can’t control what they think.
    Eric:  I’m meeting some...nice people here in Bay City.
    Christy:  Like who?  Charlie Winthrop Hudson?
    Eric:  And K.C. Burrell.  She’s pretty cool.
    Christy looks at him with pursed lips.
    Christy:  Eric baby, your mother knows more than you think.
    Eric:  Know what?
    Christy:  You turned over the evidence you stole out of Grant Harrison’s house to me.  All I have is proof that Grant bankrolled Evan Frame’s scheme in St. Croix, but you kept something.
    Eric:  Mom what are you talking about?
    Christy:  It has to do with Kirkland Harrison doesn’t it?
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    HOSPITAL
    Kirkland is in an exam room, and sees Ryan, who again is dressed in blue jeans, sneakers and a button shirt.
    Kirkland:  I still can’t believe you angels wear regular clothes.  Are you the new wave?
    Ryan:  What were you expecting exactly?  Was I supposed to be flying through the sky with huge wings?
    Kirkland:  Sorry.
    Ryan:  You know, kid, you showed a lot of courage coming here today.  
    Kirkland:  I’m worried.  What if I don’t get the result that I’m looking for?  What if I’m HIV positive?  
    A doctor walks in.
    Doctor:  Hi Mr. Harrison.  I have the results.

    Lindsay:  Of course not.
    Charlie:  And I’m gonna show him.
    Lindsay:  I like the sound of that.
    Charlie:  But I think you should take some of your own advice...and work things out with Gregory.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    AT THE HUDSONS
    Sharlene:  She’s probably trying to process the fact that she can’t have children.
    Gregory:  Why won’t she let me help her?
    John:  Because she’s pushing you away right?
    Gregory:  Yeah.
    John:  I’m sorry Gregory but I have to be honest.  I never had a great feeling about Lindsay Winthrop.
    Gregory:  That’s not what I need to hear right now dad.
    John:  She lied about her reasons for coming to Bay City in the first place.  When you questioned her she pushed you away then, too.  
    Sharlene:  John I don’t think you’re being fair.
    John:  Come on Sharlene, this girl is always playing with his emotions and it’s not right.
    Sharlene:  I don’t think Lindsay’s doing that.  I think she just needs some space.  Give her time.  She’ll come around.
    Gregory:  Looks like she doesn’t mind someone else occupying that space.
    John:  What are you talking about?
    Gregory:  Lindsay seemed just fine chatting it up at the Center yesterday.
    Sharlene:  Who was she with?
    Gregory:  She was with Charlie and her uncle.
    Sharlene:  Charlie’s uncle?  When did Morgan get to town?
    Gregory:  Not Morgan Winthrop.  I’m talking about Carl Hutchins’ son, Devin Lucas Hutchins.
    Sharlene:  Carl has another child?
    Gregory:  Right, and it looked he and Lindsay were getting along just fine.  She sure wasn’t pushing him away.
    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Lindsay:  I don’t want Gregory treating me like I’m so fragile because I’m not.
    Charlie:  Of course you’re not, but I hope you weren’t pushing him away.
    Lindsay:  Yeah I...I was, but I’m still dealing with this.
    Charlie:  Linds you can’t let it take you out.  You can’t let it destroy what you have with Gregory.
    Lindsay:  Why would he still want me?  I can’t even have children.
    Charlie:  I don’t think he cares about that.  He loves you, and you have to let him do that.  It’s pretty much what you told me about Kirkland.  You’ve got to let Gregory love you, just like I’m going to let Kirkland do the same for me.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    Kirkland:  So...what are they?
    Doctor:  We didn’t find any of the virus in your system.  You’re negative.  I would recommend coming back in six months for another test.
    Kirkland:  Thank you doctor.  Thank you so much.
    The doctor leaves and Ryan appears again.
    Kirkland:  Thank God.
    Ryan:  I’m glad kid.  You dodged a bullet.  
    Kirkland:  I feel relieved that I’m HIV negative, but why don’t I feel like I’m out of the woods yet?
    Ryan:   Because you’re afraid of Charlie finding out about your past relationship with Scott Granger, and you sleeping with the bartender at the Genoa City Athletic Club.
    Kirkland:  I love her and I don’t wanna lose her.
    Ryan:  Then trust in the love that you two have.  That should get you through whatever fears you have.  
    Kirkland:  I do trust her.
    Ryan:  I’m not so sure about that.  
    Kirkland:  What do you mean?  Of course I trust her.
    Ryan:  You can’t keep lying to Charlie.  It’s only gonna get worse.  ---------------------------------------------
    Eric:  Mom I didn’t keep anything.
    Christy:  Don’t lie to me honey.  I love you...no matter what.  Nothing is going to change that.  
    Eric:  Mom what are you getting at?
    Christy:  When I walked into the coffee shop one day, you were paying particular close attention to Grant Harrison’s speech on the Religious Freedom Law, especially the part where he said was against gays and lesbians being discriminated against.
    Eric:  Why can’t I want equality for everyone?
    Christy:  Because you’re one of them.  You are using K.C. Burrell to hide your sexuality.  
    Eric:  I’m not doing that!
    Christy:  Eric honey it’s okay.  Whether you’re gay or straight I still love you.  I will always be your mother.
    Eric:  Mom…
    Christy:  You’re using Charlie to get to Kirkland aren’t you?  Kirkland is the one you want.
    Eric:  You think you’ve got everything figured out.
    Christy:  I know you kept the evidence of him having sex in Genoa City with another man...and I want you to use it to keep him off my tail.
    Eric is stunned at Christy’s request.
    Eric:  Of course it’s all about you isn’t it?
    Christy:  If you use that evidence, then we’ll both get what we want, because I’m sure that Kirkland hasn’t told Charlie has he?  
    Christy smiles.
    Christy:  Opportunity’s knocking.  All you have to do is open the door.
    Eric:  Opportunity?
    Christy:  We stand to benefit from this.
    Eric:  Again...about you.
    Christy:  Honey, you are about the only thing I’ve ever done right in my life.  You’re my baby that I held in my arms.  You cried and cried, and with every scream, my love for you grew.  After Douglas and James made me give you away, I was never really the same after that.  I always felt a void in my heart.  I’ve been given a second chance.  
    Christy puts her right hand on Eric’s left cheek.
    Christy:  I love you.  All I want for you is to be happy.  I want you to have everything your heart desires.  I don’t want you to turn out like me.  I want you to live a happy, productive life.  I want more for you, so yes, this is about what I want.  What I want is what’s best for my son.  Whatever it is you want, you need to go for it.
    Eric walks to the door.
    Christy:  Where are you going?
    Eric:  Gonna go out to think.
    Eric opens the door, and Grant greets him.
    Grant:  Eric.
    Eric:  You’re Kirkland’s dad aren’t you?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    Ryan:  One lie is gonna turn into another and another, and it’s the lies that are gonna break up you up.  The longer you keep lying, the more you destroy the trust.  The best chance for you to save your marriage...is to tell Charlie the truth.
    Kirkland nods his head.

    TOPS - Grant and Kirkland are waiting for a table…

    Grant: Son I’m glad you asked to have dinner with me.
    Kirkland: Of course dad.
    Grant: Is Charlie working tonight?
    Kirkland: No she’s off, in fact when we’re married, she won’t have to work here anymore.
    Hostess: Harrison table for three?
    Kirkland: Yes.
    Grant: Oh Charlie’s joining us tonight huh?
    Kirkland: We’re waiting for one more person.
    The elevator opens, and out walks Vicky.

    AT THE HUDSONS…Sharlene is in the living room and John walks in.
    John: How you feelin’?
    Sharlene: I’m fine.
    John: You know what I mean.
    Sharlene: You act as though I’ve never been to therapy before.
    John: You’ve never been to an institution before.
    Sharlene: So you arbitrarily decided that I would need to go to a psychiatric hospital without even consulting me?
    John: You had a relapse, and you were going to be arrested.
    Sharlene: I never agreed to this!
    John: This is going to help you get integrated once and for all.
    Gregory walks in.
    Sharlene: YOU are committing me!
    John: It wasn’t Sharly this time! People were hurt and a man was murdered.
    Gregory: Dad did I hear right? You had mom committed? What the hell is wrong with you?

    BAY CITY CENTER
    Frankie and Charlie are walking slowly and talking…
    Frankie: So have you thought about what you wanted for your wedding?
    Charlie: Since I was a little girl. You don’t remember?
    Frankie: You’ve grown up a lot since then honey. Maybe some of your ideas have changed.
    Charlie: Not too much mom.
    Frankie: I remember you said that you wanted a violet color scheme. You wanted all your bridesmaids to wear purple, and you wanted ruffle decorations all around the church.
    Charlie: We...uh...probably won’t do the ruffles.
    Frankie: But I didn’t forget what you wanted for your wedding.
    Charlie: You know what else I want?
    Frankie: What is that baby?
    Charlie: I want you and dad to work out your differences and get back together.
    Frankie: It’s not that simple.
    Charlie: I know you’re bummed out about Christy not being granted parole, but it doesn’t mean you two can’t come to a compromise. I know you and dad still love each other.

    Grant, Vicky and Kirkland are having dinner...
    Kirkland: It was good wasn’t it?
    Vicky: Yeah it was great.
    Grant: Kirkland may I have a word with you please?
    Vicky: I know whatcha gonna say Grant. Why did our son invite me to dinner knowing that you’d be here. In fact that’s a good question Kirkland. Why DID you invite me to dinner when you knew Grant was gonna be here?
    Kirkland: Wow my parents can’t even be civil during dinner with their own son.
    Grant: Victoria’s the one who can’t be cordial. I mean are you still angry about everything that happened while Kirkland was a little boy?
    Vicky: No I’m past all that, but it doesn’t mean I will forget.
    Grant: I mean you want us to forget everything YOU’VE done? I mean you didn’t even know if Steven’s father was Jake or Jamie? Hell you didn’t even know that I was Kirkland’s father! It took a paternity test to confirm it!
    Kirkland slams down his fork.
    Kirkland: Will you two stop it! I knew this was a bad idea! Mom I wanted us to have dinner because I wanted to tell you first that I was getting married, and second I wanted you both to be a big part of my wedding.
    Vicky: You’re marrying Charlie?
    Kirkland: Yes.
    Grant: And I already knew about it.
    Vicky: Wait a minute! You told Grant before you told me? I’m your mother!
    Kirkland: Who cares who I told first? Look obviously this wasn’t a good idea. I’ll meet with you both separately. Thanks for dinner.
    Vicky: Wait, honey, come back. Kirkland!
    Grant: Way to go Victoria.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    John: Gregory you stay out of this.
    Sharlene: It’s okay honey. I’m gonna be fine.
    Gregory: All he’s ever done is hurt you mom, and I’m not gonna let it happen again!
    John: I love your mother and I would never EVER try to hurt her!
    Gregory: Bull!
    Sharlene: Gregory that’s enough! Don’t talk to your father that way. I...I don’t remember anything that happened after I went for a drive.
    Gregory: He didn’t have to you have you committed!
    Sharlene: It may be the best thing for me. Besides, your cousin is gonna be my therapist.
    Gregory: I’m gonna be there for you mom. Every step of the way.
    Gregory looks at John.
    Gregory: And I’m gonna protect you, too.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Frankie: I’m always gonna love your father.
    Charlie: I’m not talking about friendship. You two still have the love that I grew up seeing.
    Frankie: Charlie…
    Charlie: Mom work things out with dad. You know you want to. I mean, he gave me his blessing.
    Frankie: He did?
    Charlie: Yes. He’s gonna give me away at my wedding.
    Frankie: That’s….that’s great.
    Charlie: I guess with the Christy thing behind him, I guess he had a change of heart.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Grant walks in his house, and is shocked by what he sees.
    Grant: What the….no.
    He runs directly to his open safe, and notices that the contents are gone.

    Christy whispers something to the guard, who exits and waits behind a door. Christy sits down, and greets her visitor, the coffee shop barista
    Christy: Eric, I’m so glad to see you! Did you do it?
    Eric: Yep. I got everything out of there. It wasn’t easy though.
    Christy: Oh my sweet boy. You sure know how to make your mama proud.

    Anna: He never loved you! He used you to get to me.
    Dr. Obrecht: Yes of course. You were ze object of his obsession.
    Anna: You’ve spent your whole life loving a sadistic madman, but you’re just as sick as he is.
    Dr. Obrecht: You need to find zim.
    Anna: I don’t need to do a damned thing! He got what he deserved.

    Carly: I saw Kiki’s hand on yours at Kelly’s.
    Morgan: She was being supportive.
    Carly: You’ve been through a lot the last few months. That bitch Ava, which I can’t understand for the life of me what you saw in her, went to jail. Your dad is gone. I know you had feelings for her.
    Morgan: She’s been a good friend, and that’s all we are...just friends.
    Carly: A friend who’s marrying your brother. You should consider ending that friendship. It’s inappropriate.
    Morgan: And I have no intention of doing that. I’m not just gonna cut her off after she’s been there for me.
    Carly: Why not? Your brother is more important.
    Michael and Kiki walk in the lobby together. Morgan does not see them because his back is turned to them.

    Madeline: Well I told you that before, but you refused to listen.
    Nina: Please, just give me more time.
    Madeline: I’m getting too old to try and keep up with a twenty year old. He comes and goes when he pleases, he stays out days at a time. God only knows what he’s doing? He has to go back to Port Charles with you Nina. I just can’t do it anymore.
    Nina: Mom please just work with me on this.
    Madeline: I worked with you in getting Ava out of the way didn’t I? Against my better judgment I might add.
    Nina: And I faked Dr. Nakamura’s death for you. Where is he anyway?
    Madeline: I have to call him and ask him something.
    Nina: Ask him what?
    Madeline picks up her cell phone and makes a call.
    Madeline: Dr. Nakamura. It’s me.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    HOSPITAL ROOM - Dr. Nakamura answers Madeline’s call.
    Dr. Nakamura: She’s fine. When I’m through, she shouldn’t remember a thing.
