ANOTHER WORLD 211 Christy makes an unexpected visit Written by: C. Nathaniel Richardson Consultants: ML Cooks and A. Washington Beeby PART 1 AT THE CENTER… Toni and KC are sitting at a table. KC sips her latte. KC: You know I had a great date the other day. Toni: With Eric Stenbeck? KC: Yeah. Toni: Oh…great. KC: But? Toni: Nothing. KC: Is it because he’s James Stenbeck’s and Christy Carson’s son? Toni: His DNA is questionable but that doesn’t mean anything. KC: It wasn’t his idea to crash Kirkland and Charlie’s wedding reception. It was Christy’s. Toni: I don’t care whose idea it was. I just think you should take things slow because you don’t know him. KC: We’ve been talking for a few weeks, of course I don’t know him yet. Toni: Look I’mma keep it real. There’s something about him that isn’t right, and I don’t want you to get hurt. KC: Eric is cool, and I like him. Nothing is gonna happen to me. Toni: That’s what you say now. KC: Come on Toni, have a little faith in me. Toni: I’ve got plenty of that for you, but it’s Eric I don’t trust. Allen walks up. Allen: I don’t either. KC: Oh not you, too. Allen: He’s up to no good, and your mother and I don’t want you to be collateral damage. I’m not gon’ sit by and watch it happen. Toni: Allen where are you going? ------------------------------------- COFFEE SHOP… Allen walks in, and accosts Eric, who is wiping down a table. Allen: Can I talk to you for a minute bruh? Eric: I’m working. Allen: Tell em you on break. Allen grabs Eric and escorts him to a corner of the shop. Eric: What is this about? Allen: It’s about you and KC. I don’t think she should be seeing you. Eric: Well isn’t that a choice that she has to make? Allen: You got a smart ass mouth don’t you? Allen gets directly in Eric’s face, as Eric is backed up against the wall. Allen: I don’t know what you and your sociopathic, demented mother are up to, but I’ll be damned if KC gets dragged down with you. If my daughter gets hurt, you gon deal with me, and trust me my man, that’s not something you want. ------------------------------------------------------------ AT KIRKLAND’S SUITE… Charlie is changing purses in the common area as Kirkland walks out from their bedroom. Kirkland: I made...reservations for us at Tops...tonight. Charlie: What time? Kirkland: Eight o’clock. Charlie: Okay. Charlie focuses as she continues to take her things out of one purse and place them into another. Kirkland: I’m looking forward to it. Charlie: Yep. Charlie walks past Kirkland to the closet... Charlie: Can’t find my pink lip gloss. Kirkland: Babe did you hear anything that I said? Charlie: Yeah. Kirkland: Come on, you mean to tell me you’re still mad about what happened at the coffee shop? Charlie: Dogs get mad Kirkland, unless you’re trying to call me a bitch. Charlie gets a shoe box out and sifts through it. Charlie: Here it is. She walks back to her purse and puts the lip gloss in it. Kirkland: Charlie can you stop for a minute and talk to me? Charlie: What is it? Kirkland: I can’t believe you’re freezing me out because of Eric Stenbeck. Charlie: That’s not it. Kirkland: Then what is it? Charlie: It’s you. You won’t let it go. Kirkland: You’re damned right I’m not gonna let it go. He’s weird. Charlie: I saw him arguing with his mother. He had nothing to do with crashing the wedding reception. It was all Christy’s idea. Kirkland: Is that what he told you? Charlie: Eric is not as bad as you are making him out to be. I don’t think he’s anything like his mother. Kirkland: Unbelievable. He’s got you snowed doesn’t he? Charlie: We’re so not doing this. Kirkland: You need to stay away from Eric. Charlie walks to the door. Charlie: You need to let it go. Eric is not like his mother. -------------------------------------------------------- CHRISTY’S SUITE Christy looks at her cell phone and an alert. Christy: Two more days. CAMERA PAN ON CHRISTY...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UWc9ONfctY ---------------------------------------------------------------- PART 2 Allen walks back to Toni and KC’s table and sits down. Toni: What did you do? Allen: Nothing a father wouldn’t do for his daughter. KC: What did you say to him? Allen: He’s shady, KC, and if it were up to me you’d be seeing somebody else. KC: I’m glad you realize that because it’s not up to either of you. I’m a grown woman. Toni: Grown people make mistakes. KC: You two need to let it go. So what he and his mother crashed Kirkland and Charlie’s wedding? It wasn’t even his idea! Toni: Keep your voice down. KC: No! I’m gonna continue to see Eric whether you two like it or not. Allen: You need to get out of it before you get too deep. He’s gonna hurt you. He’s got some kind of agenda. KC: Y’all didn’t hear me did you? I am going to date Eric, and that’s it! KC gets up and leaves. Toni: Don’t walk away from me! Allen: Let her go. Maybe she’ll cool off and come to her senses. Toni: Not happening. She’s is more stubborn than a mule. I don’t need this. I gotta plan detail for the party at the Corys. Allen: It’s like she’s driving ninety miles an hour and she doesn’t see the brick wall she’s gonna hit if she gets any deeper with him. Meanwhile, Eric is at the door of the coffee shop, secretly watching Toni and Allen. ------------------------------------------------ AT STACEY’S… Lindsay and Charlie are sitting on the living room couch each with their legs folded, eating ice cream… Lindsay: Oh cousin you sure know how to make a gal feel better. Charlie: Nothing like a good ole pint of butter pecan. Lindsay: Yummy. I’m so happy you came. You’ve really cheered me up. Charlie: Yeah...right. Lindsay: What’s wrong cuz? Charlie (sighing): It’s Kirkland. Lindsay: You seem down...you wanna talk about it? Charlie: We’re fighting over Eric Stenbeck. Lindsay: You mean the guy who came with Christy Carson to your wedding reception uninvited. Charlie: I saw him arguing with his mother in the coffee shop the other day. He insisted it wasn’t his idea, and the more I talk to him, the more I see that he’s not like Christy. Kirkland doesn’t see it that way. Lindsay: You probably gotta see it from his perspective. I think he’s just trying to protect you. Charlie: He’s overreacting. Lindsay: Given what Christy did to your parents I could actually understand it. Charlie: But it doesn’t mean that Eric is gonna do the same thing. You know what...this visit isn’t about me, it’s about you. I’m sorry. I’m supposed to be cheering you up and here I am talking about a disagreement with my husband. Lindsay: Don’t apologize. This is helping me more than you’d ever know. We’re family right? You know what, let’s get outta here. I can’t go back to work because I’m on leave, and I’m tired of being cooped up in this house. Charlie: Are you sure? Lindsay: Yeah. Let me take a quick shower and we’ll be on our way. You know maybe you need to talk to your parents about Christy, and you’ll probably understand why Kirkland is so adamant about Eric. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kirkland is set to leave the suite but he is distracted by a text on his phone from Scott Granger, Jr. from Genoa City. Scott: hey sexy married guy. hru Kirkland: what’s up Scotty Scott: hey i gotta tell u something. u know the guy at the GCAC? Kirkland: who? Scott: the bartender you slept with. i heard he’s HIV+. U should get tested. just thought id tell u. ttyl. Kirkland is horrified. Kirkland: No...no this can’t be happening. Suddenly, Kirkland hears a familiar voice. Voice: Yes it can. Kirkland turns around and is shocked to see Ryan wearing a collared plaid shirt, blue jeans and boots. Kirkland: Uncle Ryan? Why am I seeing you right now? Ryan: Because your lie is getting out of control. Kirkland: What are you talking about? Wait a minute, aren’t angels dressed in white? Ryan: Not this time, and don’t try to change the subject. Kirkland: I’m scared man. I’m so scared. Ryan: That text? Kirkland: I only slept with the guy to get info on my father. I wasn’t in love with him or anything. Ryan: But you were in love with Scott Granger right? Kirkland: Yeah I was. Why are you bringing all this up? I’m married to Charlie. Ryan: And you haven’t even told her about your past. Kirkland: I can’t do that. I’d lose her forever. Ryan: You’re not giving her enough credit. You’re not trusting in your love. Kirkland: I’m scared Uncle Ryan. The guy I slept with is HIV positive. What if I....? Ryan: There’s only one way to find out right? You’re gonna have to go get tested. Kirkland: What if I infected Charlie? I could never live with myself. Ryan: Did you use protection when you slept with that guy? Kirkland: Yeah but condoms aren’t foolproof. Sometimes they break. Ryan: Kid..stop panicking. Go get an HIV test. Kirkland: This day has come straight from hell, no pun intended. Ryan: That’s because you’re lying to her. When you tell the truth, you’re gonna feel much better. Kirkland: Her parents are gonna kill me, especially Cass. ------------------------------------------------------------------- AT THE WINTHROPS Cass and Frankie are in the living room.

Your last two episodes have been very balanced. Writing Agnes Nixon would love lol I LAUGHED, (almost CRIED), and now we have to WAIT.. LAUGHS - Henry and Barbara's bedroom. Carrots and ranch. They were funny and light hearted.. ALMOST CRIED - Marcino's concern for his soon to be boyfriend is touching, but Greg fears for his life. WAIT- JJ and Miranda seem to be a couple that you are wanting us to root for, but as long as Eliza is around, they are always gonna have trouble and misunderstandings. Will they get together? And Greg is going to UNION CREEK. Why there? We are just gonna have to WAIT and see. GREAT EPISODE

Very balanced episode...Gentle, Dark, and Deep GENTLE - Terrence and Natalia's interaction was simple, natural and maybe the start of something nice between them. Partners on the force perhaps. Hopefully she's not looking for another Brot. GENTLE - The shelter scenes were also gentle and a great lead in to the DARK... DARK - Vin is out for blood. Very unstable young man. I hope he doesn't seriously hurt someone (which I think he will) DARK - I knew Paul was into something illegal with Katsu. Some money laundering or drugs or something. I hope Paul doesn't get in over his head. There will be nothing his little brother Eric will be able to do to help him LOL DEEP - My NEW favorite couple of JP, Greg and Marcino. There is something about these types of interactions between men fighting their feelings for each other that's very STRONG and deeper than that of a man and a woman going through the same thing. Their scenes really packed a punch... GREAT EPISODE!!

Todd and the mysterious document. I'm starting to think Ben and Gary already know about it, and that Ben is the head of whatever snake is in town conducting shady business. Lily notices Marah's lust toward Malik. I wonder when Dani's gonna figure in. Nice triangle you're setting up there. Is Holden about to take a job he knows nothing about? And nice casting with Mason Capwell, I mean Lane Davies LOL Nice humor with Todd asking Jack to get him coffee. You are very in tune with Todd Manning's character. You are writing things that he totally would say. GOOD EPISODE

Lots going on here. Teen party antics...Rourke with the weed. Who's Camella? I am starting to wonder if Edmund Winslow is behind the attempt on Reva's life. He has threatened to kill her before. Maybe Edmund has something to do with where Jack has been all this time. And another step in my favorite story, Eartha/Elijah/Morris. It's just a matter of time when Eartha acts on her feelings toward Elijah. It's a ticking powder keg. Very focused and pointed episode...good read

Great episode once again!!! You knocked it out the park!! Valerie and Marlena continue from the last episode, and Marlena's reactions were real and sensible. Valerie dug right in and asked the tough questions. NOW Marlena should ask where VALERIE's been and what she's been doing all these years. Before we get to Valerie's past, she THINKS she sees Chris Kositchek... You are setting up Eric/Nicole/Noelle triangle. Very believable. I could see Nicole's private reaction to Eric and Noelle's interaction. This also will be interesting. Jerome, Sheryl and Jordan are about to hack into Titan's servers and download all of the Enernext info. "There are always holes in firewalls." says Jerome. GOOD twist to add him to this storyline. Something tells me, though, that they will hit a snag. I'm GLAD Kim stood her ground vs Daniel Jonas and his unnecessary involvement in this conflict between Kim and Billie over Theresa. Makes the story more interesting, especially if Kim thinks Daniel helped Billie to get in to see Theresa. I notice a quicker pace to your storytelling and it does NOT take away the impact of the stories. Keep it coming!!!

As always, you bring the house...and you didn't disappoint this time. The confilct between Billie and Kim is growing exponentially it seems, and Dr. Daniel is in the middle of it. Nice that you reiterated Kim's determination to keep Billie away from a comatose Theresa. Kim clearly is trying to compensate for her shortcomings as a mother and feels threatened by Billie's closeness to Theresa. You play Kim's emotions so well. I can see ALL of this through her "eye daggers" and "hisses" toward Billie. LOVE IT... Jerome's got a sense of humor, which I like, especially when he was talking about who Jordan was NOW...AND you reminded us all of how driven Sheryl is to stop EnerNext. Good exchange between these three. The talk between Will and Gabi was down to earth and honest, and I also liked that you are not wasting ANY time with this. Let's get right to it. Will is attracted to Alex, and Gabi gave him a healthy dose of truth about the whole situation. I can't say enough about your detailed description of situations. They put me RIGHT there and I can SEE everything through your writing. Gabi struggling with the stroller and Will going to help her. Sami's looks and reactions to seeing EJ in Laura's office. I can totally see them, and also a touching scene between them, and we are about to get into Sami's feelings as she is about to tell us why she could not go over to Johnny as she went to his room.

Very good episode...Had some "heart to hearts" and story movement. Victoria and Chance's relationship grew. Liked their interaction Roxanne had that slap coming for a long time. Leslie checked her for her mouth, thankfully. And the new generation of Young and The Restless is beginning. Hilary and Mary are both pregnant. Congratulations to the two women! LOL Scotty continues his relationship with Mary, and now she's pregnant. I wonder what ramifications this will have on him later. I wonder if he's going to text Kirkland with the news LOL And I wonder if Sharon is really dead. I think Sheila still has her. Paul delivers news that Sharon is dead and Nick punches him? That was weird. But I feel sorry for Noah, as not only he may be a father, but his mother is presumed dead also. Lots to process for that young man.

Episode had a the past and the present in it. Good job of catching us up with Mary's sexcapades with the three men. This seems to be a turning point in this story and looking forward to seeing how everything else unfolds...especially if she turns up pregnant. The fighting between Roxanne and Hilary and Drucilla and Phyllis revealed all the hatred between them. We all know why Dru and Phyllis hate each other, and this fight seemed to signify what's to come between them. As for Roxanne and Hilary, this is new to YR (no established history) and I want to see how you are going to establish the new history between these sisters. Hilary seems to be more of a methodical schemer, and Roxanne is just a brazen bully. LOL Interesting dynamic between those two. You've featured Sister Patterson a lot and I am still wondering what story she's a part of. A soapy "DAYS/AWish" cliffhanger at the end, and nothing wrong with it. After all it is a soap opera lol.

The rest of the episode is listed below... Vicky: He says he doesn’t trust me. He doesn’t realize that everything I’ve ever done was for the good of our family. I’ve made mistakes, but I love my family. I love all of my children, and I love him. Ryan: Sometimes you love someone, but you can’t be with them. Vicky: Are you saying that...it’s time for Jake and I to divorce? That there’s nothing I can do to fix what’s broken. Ryan: What I’m saying is...the more you try to fix things, the more broken they’re gonna become. Vicky: There’s gotta be something I can do. Ryan: You haven’t heard a word I’ve said. Vicky: I can’t just sit by and watch my family crumble. I mean what about Steven and Kirkland? Steven is smitten with a girl that my brother in law had an affair with years ago. At least Kirkland’s happily married. Ryan: Vicky, sometimes all you can do...is sit and just be there for them. Everybody makes their own decisions, and you can’t control them. Vicky: That’s not what I wanted to hear. Ryan: I’m not gonna lie to you Vicky. Vicky: Why do you have to be so angelic? So...your boss sent you to...tell me this. Ryan: Yeah but I got a couple more stops to make before I go back. Vicky: Where? Ryan: I can’t tell you, but you’ll know soon enough. Vicky: I wonder if you’ve been talking to my daughter. Ryan: Michele. Vicky: After everything that Bridget did to her, Michele decided to forgive her. In fact she’s going to the Love Mansion to tell her. --------------------------------------------------- Michele walks in the front door, and looks inside the living room unseen by Donna and Bridget. Michele is about to walk in the living room, but Bridget says something that inadvertently stops Michele, and Michele decides to listen. Donna: Was it your first time having sex? Bridget: I can’t talk to you about this. Donna: I’ll take that as a yes. Bridget: It hurt a little, but it felt good though. Donna: Because it was Cory. Bridget: Yes, that had a lot to do with it. Sex with Cory was...just a mind blowing experience. I felt so high like I was...riding on a cloud or a magic carpet or something. The first time I had sex was...with the guy I loved. Is there anything better than that? Donna: It’s like me and your grandfather. Michele gets upset and goes upstairs… ------------------------------------- BRIDGET’S ROOM Michele decides to snoop around. She sees an unmade bed, and she gets upset. As she looks around, she notices something in the wastebasket. She gets a pen off the dresser and uses it to pick up...the used condom from the wastebasket, and confirms what she heard downstairs. Her anger rebuilds as she looks at the used condom dangling from the pen. Michele: No...no! She tosses the used condom to the other side of the bed in anger. Michele: That bitch! I’m gonna make you pay for this Bridget. Oh you’re gonna be so sorry. FREEZE FRAME ON MICHELE...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 210

ANOTHER WORLD 210 Michele doesn’t like what she overhears Written by: C. Nathaniel Richardson Consultants: ML Cooks and A. Washington Beeby Paul Michael Valley makes an appearance as Ryan Harrison… PART 1 STACEY’S APARTMENT Lindsay is lying down on the couch dressed in her blue pajamas and Stacey walks into the living room. Stacey: Look Lindsay you can’t lie around and be depressed about this forever. Lindsay: Oh you’re a shrink now. I guess you’re gonna ask me how it makes me feel? Stacey: Sarcasm isn’t gonna help you right now. Lindsay: You wanna know how it makes me feel don’t you? Do you wanna how a hysterectomy makes me feel? I’m nothing. I feel...empty. I’m never gonna have a child! I feel worthless. Stacey: If that’s your attitude then that’s what’s gonna happen. There are other ways you can have children. Lindsay: Oh wait, you’re gonna tell me I can adopt. You know what’ll happen? I’ll attach myself to the child until the birth mother decides she wants to come and take custody, and I will have no choice but to give the child back to its natural mother. You see, natural mothers have more power; biological mothers hold all the cards. I will never be anyone’s biological mother. Stacey: And how long are you gonna down about it? How long are you gonna sit here and feel sorry for yourself? You’re better than that Lindsay. You’re stronger than that! Lindsay: You’re really something aren’t you? You’re gonna tell me how I should feel? Stacey: Of course not honey. I want you to get through this, but moping around, having a pity party, that’s not you. That’s someone else, and whoever that person is has taken my daughter, and I’m gonna get the real you back, no matter what I have to do. Lindsay: You want me back mom? How about you and Gregory stop treating me like a delicate, porcelain trinket? Stacey: We can help you if you let us. Stacey’s eyes well up. Stacey: I love you so much. Stacey leaves out the front door. Outside she leans her back on the wall next to the door, and looks up at the ceiling. Stacey: My God what am I gonna do? Michael walks up. Michael: You alright? Stacey runs up and hugs Michael. Stacey: No. Not at all. Michael: Worried about your daughter huh? Stacey: Yeah...very. Michael: Are you headed out? Stacey: Yeah I’m..I was headed to the office. Michael: Why don’t we...go somewhere? To the Center maybe? Stacey: Yeah...I have a few minutes. Sure. As they walk away slowly. Michael: Guess we’re both worried huh? Stacey: You must be worried about...Lindsay’s sisters. Michael: Yep, Bridget and Michele. --------------------------------------------------------------- AT THE MCKINNONS Vicky and Michele are in the living room. Michele: And I’ve been thinking a lot about it and...it’s time for me to go tell Bridget that I forgive her, and for us to be sisters again. Vicky: Honey, that is the best news I’ve heard all day. So proud of you. Vicky hugs Michele. Michele: Thanks mom. Vicky: Can I ask you a question? Michele: Sure. Vicky: Did you...cut yourself with those scissors in the hospital? Michele flashes back. (EPISODE 191) Michele turns around, and walks to the counter slowly. She secretly grabs a pair of gauze scissors and starts digging them into her left arm until she draws blood. Michele flashes back to the present. Michele: That’s...that’s not important. Vicky: So Bridget did attack you? Michele: Whatever Bridget did, I forgive her. Vicky: I always knew that you would do the right thing. You always did. That’s my girl. If you were angry at Bridget, I knew you would eventually would try to resolve your differences. Michele: And I’m gonna head over to the Love Mansion to let her know. --------------------------------------------- LOVE MANSION Donna walks to the foyer and sees Bridget and Cory coming downstairs. Donna: Cory? Bridget? Cory: Hi Donna. Donna: Cory what were you doing upstairs? Cory looks at Bridget who is a step behind him. Donna: You two...in my house? Cory: I can explain… Bridget: Explain what Cory? My grandmother seems to have figured out what happened. We slept together. Donna: Cory can you let Bridget and I talk please? Cory: I’m gonna...head home. Bridget: I’ll call you. They kiss and Donna turns her attention to Bridget. Bridget: Where’s grandpa? Donna: He went out. Bridget: Well I’m gonna go see dad. Donna: Not now you’re not. In the living room...now! You’re reminding me of your mother. -------------------------------------------------------- Vicky is curled up on the living room couch and her arms folded. She looks at the divorce papers on the coffee table, and has a flashback… (EPISODE 207) Jake: Vicky you need to face the truth. Ever since Michele’s accident we haven’t been the same since. Vicky: We got past that. Jake: Then you knew about Lindsay being my daughter and you didn’t tell me. Vicky: I was trying to protect our family! Jake: But you didn’t did you? I don’t trust you Vicky. Ever since you kept the truth about Lindsay from me, I have a hard time trusting you. Vicky flashes back to the present, and uncurls herself from the couch and sits up and sighs. Vicky: What am I gonna do? Suddenly, someone gently places his hand on her right shoulder, and she touches it, as if the feeling is familiar to her. She looks up... Vicky: You? Vicky sees a smiling Ryan Harrison, dressed in street clothes. CAMERA PAN ON RYAN...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG ---------------------------------------------------- PART 2 AT THE CENTER...Michael and Stacey are sitting at a table across from each other. Stacey: I don’t know what else to do Michael. I hate seeing her like this. Michael: It’s getting to you isn’t it? Stacey: I’m used to seeing her alive; on the go; determined. I mean she came to Bay City all on her own to find Jake. This person that I’ve been seeing the last few days...that’s not my daughter. You know? Michael: I know. Stacey: I just wanna reach inside and take what’s bothering her out, so she can be herself again. Michael: Unfortunately there’s not much we can do about that. We see our children going down a road that’s gonna lead them to hurt. We do what we can do stop them, and we can’t. Donna told me about Vicky and Shane Roberts all those years ago. Stacey: I heard about that. Michael: My twin brother got killed an accident trying to stop her from sleeping with him. I wasn’t there but I can identify with that feeling. Stacey: Parental instinct I guess. They both chuckle. Stacey: Well I’m glad you decided to come see me. Michael: I needed a friend. I mean...we’re still friends after all these years right? Stacey: You’re really worried your twin granddaughters huh? Michael: Yeah I didn’t wanna tell Donna. She’s worried to the twentieth power, and if I show her that I’m worried I don’t think it would help. Stacey: Well you know Donna better than anyone. Michael: I should. I married her four times right? Stacey: Right? Well I gotta...get to the office. Michael places his hand on Stacey’s. Michael: If you...need anything I’m here for you. Okay? She slips her hand from under his. Stacey: Sure. Thank you. I’ll keep that in mind. So where are you headed now? Michael: Home. She smiles, steps away, and places a call on her cell phone. Stacey: Can you come to my office? I need to talk to you. ---------------------------------------------------------- Donna and Bridget are sitting on the living room couch. Bridget: Are you gonna give me the talk? Because I heard it from mom and dad already. Donna: You watch your attitude young lady! I just hope you and Cory were responsible, and used protection. Bridget: Why wouldn’t have we used a condom? Donna: I don’t know Bridget. You tell me. Bridget: Really? You think I’m gonna do what mom did when she slept with Jake and Jamie Frame. She didn’t know who Steven’s father was, and then a few years later she slept with Ryan and Grant, and again she didn’t know who Kirkland’s father was. Donna: That’s not what I meant… Bridget: Come on Grandma Donna, of course it’s what you mean. You think I’m gonna end up like mom. I guarantee you I won’t be needing any DNA tests. Donna: So you did use protection? Bridget: Yes. We used a condom. Donna: Thank God. I’m relieved that you and Cory were responsible. And you’re right...I don’t want you to be in the same situation that your mother was in. ------------------------------------------------------ Vicky and Ryan are hugging and she straddles his face. Vicky: You look… Ryan: Older? Vicky: I thought you guys don’t age up there. Ryan: This is how I’d look if I was still on earth. Vicky: You...came at the perfect time. You’re gonna tell me how to put my family back together. Ryan: Come on Vick, you know I can’t tell you what to do. Vicky: Why not? Haven’t you learned anything from your boss in twenty years? Ryan: Oh there she is. Same ole Vicky I knew and loved. Vicky: You and I should have gotten married and had a family. You were the man I loved. Ryan: So you regret the family and the life you built with Jake? Vicky: No...no that’s not what I’m saying at all. It’s like our...plans got cut short by Grant. I mean he spent years trying to get sole custody of Kirkland. Ryan: I know what my brother did. You and I weren’t meant to be Vicky, but you and Jake were. You two have a great family. Vicky: We don’t have anything anymore. He wants a divorce. Ryan: I know.

MOVING STORIES HERE...and renewing rivalries Hilary and Rox going at it again. You don't waste any time or mince any words...You jumped right in, BUT it was fueled by the rehashing of their history. I'm glad Spencer was there to kind of calm his fiery daughters down. Now I see why you kept him. He was the much needed voice of reason. Hilary and Roxanne are like two female cats fighting for domination of a territory. You've established a solid sibling rivalry here. Nice to see a different side of Scott here being concerned about Van/Mary. She is the next Verdon Lou victim, and I'm sure EVERYONE wants to talk to her because she's Sheila Carter's daughter. The little exchange between Rafe and Daisy was nice, short and snarky. I see you setting up Phyllis's battle with Daisy to keep Lucy away from her. Waiting to see what else you are going to do with this... GOOD EPISODE

Interesting episode here....lots of setups and reveals... Daniel Jonas is working for Stefano!!! Huge....I presume is to keep Jack away from Jennifer. I LIKE IT!! Daniel on TV wouldn't do it, but Daniel is a scumbag for what he did to Chloe...so good to tap into that scumbag part of him...LOL The ISA files were deleted. I like the layers to this mystery of Steve and Terrance trying to find Bo. What is being loaded by Derrick and Katsu...we will see I'm sure... Eliza/JJ/Miranda now Hunter. Great idea to add a fourth player in this, and now we see that JJ really likes her, but he knows he can't be a eff up and screw things up with her, so she's moving on...and I can see the scheming wheels turning in Eliza's head. Now I see why you showed us Greg's mother being beaten, so now we understand why he knocked out Vin, the young sociopath (lol) GREAT EPISODE!!!

MY GOODNESS....what an episode!!!!! Zack has a half brother Roarke...good way that you revealed that. Wonder how that's going to play out. Todd and the document. He's getting ever closer to finding out the source. So Holden went to work? We still don't know where he works. I'm sure we will find out...like that mystery. AND FOR MY FAVORITE STORY...forbidden love. Elijah and Eartha....I LOVE THIS STORYLINE MAN!!!! The way you are telling their past romance is so compelling and deep, and I FEEL all of it. And I liked how you used Reva's accident to segue into Elijah and Eartha. GREAT EPISODE!!!

THE GRANTS ARE IN THE HOUSE...very well introduced. Valerie and Jerome. Nick walking around town intimidating others, this time Sami. I was just waiting for him to mention the lake. Sami didn't back down, and it wouldn't be in her character if she did. Good setup with Valerie and Marlena. Old friends reconnecting... This episode gives me a feel of "new" Days. A turning point of sorts. I am so looking forward to what is coming next.

Here's the rest...this blog will not allow the edit to be published.. Cory goes to the bathroom, Bridget reaches for her phone and notices a text from Donna. The text reads: ‘Where are you? Ur sister is here.’ Bridget smiles as she contemplates her next move. Bridget: This couldn’t have worked out any better. FREEZE FRAME ON BRIDGET...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 209

Thanks for keepin me company during this bed rest I’ve been on. Allen: We’re family right? Tyrone walks in. Marley: There’s my loving husband. Tyrone: Hey baby. Tyrone walks over and kisses Marley. Tyrone: Allen what are you doing here? Allen: I...came to talk to you. Tyrone: Me? Why? Allen: Cuz I want us to be brothers. -------------------------------------------------------------- AT THE MCKINNONS Vicky is curled up on the couch as she flashes back.. (EPISODE 207) Vicky: All I see is someone who is looking for an excuse to get out of this marriage. Jake: You think that’s it? You think this doesn’t hurt? Vicky: I can’t tell Jake. Maybe you’re just itching to leave me. Jake: You were the one who gave me an ultimatum. Vicky: Oh Jake so suddenly holier than thou. Con artist, blackmailer, sleazy newspaper reporter. Is that the life you want? Are you bored? Is that why you want out? Jake: Dammit Vicky! You just don’t get it! Vicky: Oh I get it. Oh do I ever...get it. You’ve given up on our marriage. How could you? Vicky walks out. Vicky flashes back to the present and a tear rolls down her cheek. Michele comes downstairs and Vicky wipes the tear, and quickly pulls herself together. Vicky: Hi honey. How are you? Michele: I’m good. Vicky: It’s a nice day out. Any plans? Michele: I’m gonna head over to the Love Mansion. Vicky: Oh? Gonna go visit your grandparents? I’m sure they’d be thrilled to see you. Michele: Yeah. I’m gonna see them...and Bridget. Mom I haven’t been completely honest with you. Vicky: About what honey? Michele: About everything...especially about Bridget. ----------------------------------------------- LOVE MANSION...Donna is sitting with Michael on the living room couch. Donna: You know I’ve been thinking a lot about the girls. Michael: You’re always thinking about the girls. Donna: Victoria and her marriage and...Marley’s due any day now. Michael: What about Bridget and Michele? Donna: Of course I worry about them the most. I wonder what we’re gonna do to get those two on solid ground again. Michael: We don’t do anything Donna. Donna: So you’re saying you want a repeat of what happened between Marley and Victoria? Michael: Of course I don’t want that, but I think you’re overreacting just a little. Donna: It’s better for me to overreact than to brush it aside and have something happen that could hurt one of them. Michael: Well you haven’t heard anything lately right? Bridget’s living here, and Michele’s living at home. Donna: But they shouldn’t be separated. They’re twins for God’s sake. Michael: Maybe things have died down between them. Who knows? Maybe they’ll even...kiss and make up. ------------------------------------------------------ LOVE MANSION In Bridget’s bedroom, Cory and Bridget are lying in the bed kissing. Bridget is taking breaths as if she’s losing herself in Cory’s kisses. Bridget: I love when you touch me. Cory: Is that it? Bridget: No. Cory starts rubbing her left thigh gently. Cory: You like that? Bridget: Yeah, I love it. Bridget moves Cory’s hand closer between her legs. Bridget: It’s time Cory. We’ve waited long enough. They kiss passionately and start to remove each other’s clothes. Cory: Wait a minute. Cory quickly goes to his book bag, grabs a condom, and opens the wrapper to slip it on.

Tyrone: Forgive me if I’m a little skeptical after everything you’ve pulled since you came to Bay City. Allen: I just found my daughter man. Tyrone: K.C.? Yeah Marley told me. You must be…happy. Allen: I didn’t know anything about til the night my grandfather kidnapped her. Tyrone: Reginald Love. He’s the best isn’t he? Allen: I guess what I wanna say is...ever since I found out Nicole Love was my mother, family’s become very important to me. I’ve connected with my Aunt Donna, Vicky, Marley, but it’s one thing missing...my own brother. Tyrone: You wanna be brothers now? Allen: I guess that’s...that’s on you. I wanna bury the hatchet. Marley: This is really sweet. You’re gonna make me cry and I’m already hormonal. Tyrone nods his head in agreement. Tyrone: I think so, too. Roman’s gonna need his uncle Allen when he comes into the world. Besides, what kind of example am I gonna set for him if I got a grudge against my own brother. Marley: So this means you guys are going to make up. Tyrone: Yeah...it does. Tyrone and Allen hug. Marley: Now we gotta get Bridget and Michele to do what you guys are doing. -------------------------------------------- Vicky: What do you mean? Michele: Elizabeth Hutchins was here earlier and we were talking about Bridget. Vicky: And what did you come up with? Michele: I’ve been very angry with her. Vicky: And that’s understandable with all the stunts she pulled. Michele: When I got back to Bay City, I wanted Bridget to pay for everything she had done. Vicky: Did you...want to hurt your sister? Michele: I never wanted to hurt her. Vicky: Of course you didn’t. That’s what I’ve been trying to tell everyone. Michele: Aunt Marley and Grandma Donna have been pleading with me to stop being so angry. They think I’m gonna do to Bridget what… Vicky (taking a deep breath): Marley did to me. Michele: And I’ve been thinking a lot about it and...it’s time for me to go tell Bridget that I forgive her, and for us to be sisters again. Vicky: Honey, that is the best news I’ve heard all day. So proud of you. Vicky hugs Michele. --------------------------------------------------- Cory and Bridget plop themselves next to each other lying on the bed as they look up at the ceiling. Bridget: Wow that was...that was. Cory: The bomb? Bridget: People still say that? Cory: You’ve been doing some reading haven’t you? Bridget: Reading what? Cory: About sex. Bridget: Mmmmm maybe I have. Cory: The way you did things, it didn’t seem like it was your first time. Bridget: But it was, and it was...everything I hoped it would be. Bridget leans on Cory and starts to kiss him again. Cory takes off the used condom and tosses it in the wastebasket next to the bed. Cory: Gonna need another one. Bridget: I’m...kinda sore. Cory: We can stop if you want. Bridget: There are...other things I’ve been reading about. Bridget crawls under the covers… ------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile, downstairs in the living room… Donna: I sure hope so. The last thing is to relive what happened between Marley and Victoria all those years ago. Michael: It’s not gonna happen Donna. I wish you’d stop thinking like that. Donna: I can’t help it. You weren’t there. Michael: Thank your father for that. Donna: Marley was so angry. The sweet Marley we all knew was a different person. When I fell and hit my head, I couldn’t even say anything. I had to watch as she plotted against Victoria, and she locked her in the basement of this house. I’ll be damned if I let that happen with Michele and Bridget. Michael: I’m not taking anything away from Marley and Vicky, but you gotta have faith in the girls. The girls are fighting, but they’ll resolve their differences. I mean, didn’t Marley and Vicky do that? Look how close they’ve gotten. Donna: You don’t understand. I don’t want our granddaughters to have to go through that to get close again. Michael: Well Donna there’s not much we can do about it. Donna: So you think we should just stand by and watch those two kill each other? Michael: That’s not what’s happening, and it’s not going to happen. Donna: You don’t know that now do you? Michael: I have faith in Michele and Bridget. They will work things out Donna...you’ll see.

Maggie: It’s Dr. Maggie Winthrop to you. Matt: Are you serious? Wow congratulations! When did this all happen? Maggie: After I broke up with Rafael. I decided to go to school and become a doctor. Matt: And what’s up with the Winthrop. You dropped the Cory name? Maggie: My mom came to town and finally told Cass the truth. Matt: I guess now you’re Cass’s daughter. I wonder whose daughter you’ll be next week. Maggie: Ha ha ha funny. Not out of the realm of possibility where Cecile’s concerned. She produced a DNA test this time. I’m definitely Cass’s biological daughter. Matt: Man I can’t believe you’re a doctor now. You were always one determined gal. Maggie: Oh are you talking about when I was scheming. Matt: Yeaaah Maggie you had it bad for Nick Hudson though. You pulled every trick in the book to get him. Maggie: Well I’m not that girl anymore. I got a job at the hospital. Matt: Ohh so you’ll be on staff at Bay City General. Maggie: Yep. Matt: Man you’ve been real busy. I’m proud of you. You’ve done well for yourself. Maggie: That means a lot coming from you. I had one video chat interview with Dr. John Hudson and he hired me. Matt: Dr. Maggie Winthrop. I’m liking the sound of that. Maggie smiles at Matt’s words of encouragement. -------------------------------------------------------------- AT THE HUDSONS Sharlene adjusts John’s tie as he’s about to leave. Sharlene: Don’t tell me that the cool, calm and collected Dr. John Hudson is nervous about his interview today. John: Me? Nervous? Naaaah. Sharlene: It’s understandable. This is big. They’re interviewing you for the Chief of Staff position. John: Alright I’m a little nervous...just a little. I mean I’m acting Chief of Staff already. I should have a leg up on the competition right? Sharlene: Right. ----------------------------------------------------------- BAY CITY CENTER Iris walks out of the coffee shop and a man bumps into her, and causes her to drop her cup of coffee and her purse.

Iris: Russ Matthews? What are you doing here? Russ: I...had an interview at the hospital. Iris: Interview? Sounds like you’re trying to come back to Bay City for a while. Russ: It’s not just that. I’m...consulting on a patient, too.

Mitch: I see all those grandparenty instincts kicking in. Like I told you at Tops. Felicia: Words can’t describe how I feel right now. I thought I’d never be so ecstatic to find out that I’m a grandmother. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carl, Lorna, and Devin Lucas are alone in the living room. Devin Lucas: Felicia’s everything you said she is. Lorna: One of the best people I’ve ever known. Carl: Fiercely loyal to those she loves. You’ll be lucky to have your grandmother here. Devin Lucas: She said I looked...like ‘him’. Was she talking about my grandfather Lucas? Lorna: Yes. She loved him with all of her heart. Carl: Just like we...love you, son. Devin Lucas: Why now though? Why is this the only time I’m gonna get to spend with my dad? Carl: It took me that long to pay off Lucas’s creditors. Lorna: We had to protect you honey. They would have come after you. Carl called me and told me that it was safe for you to come to Bay City. Devin Lucas: All those years of boarding schools. The only way I could communicate with my dad was by letters, emails, and then texts. Lorna: I’m sorry that it had to be that way, but we had to protect you. Devin Lucas: I get it. Lorna: I love you more than anything else in this world honey. I was such a hardened, tough girl, but you made me melt. You made me become a mother. Carl: We both love you….so much. CAMERA PAN ON CARL...SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG. -------------------------------------------------------- PART 2 Russ and Iris are walking out of the coffee shop slowly. Iris: I’m surprised to see you back here. Russ: Bay City’s always been my home. I’m looking forward to being back. Iris: I’ve been trying to get Sarah to come here, but she’s loving Paris too much. Russ: I coulda told ya that. Our granddaughter isn’t coming to the states any time soon. Iris: D.J.’s birthday is coming soon. Russ: What are you planning on sending him? I’m sure you’re gonna send him a lavish gift with your new found Spaulding money. Iris: You act like I’m gonna buy him a Porsche or something. Russ smirks. Iris: Don’t look at me like that. I want our grandson to learn responsibility and the value of hard work. Russ: Olivia says he’s not ready for a car yet. Iris: So tell me about your interview. Russ: I think it went pretty well. Hopefully they’ll pick me. Iris: I’m sure they’ll have a place on staff for you there. I used to be on the board. Do you want me to make some calls? Russ: No no no Iris I don’t need your help. If I meant to be the Chief of Staff, then that’s what I’ll be. Iris: Chief of Staff? Aim for the stars. You do know that Sharlene’s husband is the acting Chief of Staff. Russ: I know...John Hudson. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- John walks into his office and Sharlene is there and he doesn’t close the door all the way. Sharlene: How’d it go? John: As well as can be expected. They’re gonna make a decision in the next couple of days. Sharlene: I really hope you get it. John: They take the interim tag off and make me permanent Chief of Staff. Sharlene hugs John and kisses him.John: Means so much to me to have your support. Sharlene: I wouldn’t care what you did for a living. John: Legally of course. Sharlene: After everything we’ve been through, I realize more than ever how much I love you, and appreciate you. They hug each other tightly. John: Ahhh Sharlene. I don’t wanna ever lose you again. Meanwhile, Brianna Jameson walks slowly toward the door, and peeks at John and Sharlene. John: Well if they don’t select me, I will have still made a key addition to the staff. Sharlene: Oh? John: Maggie Winthrop. ------------------------------------------------ Matt: I mean it. It seems you’ve...gotten more mature. You’ve become a doctor for God’s sake. Maggie: I’ll admit I had some growing up to do. I was so hung up on Nick I couldn’t see straight. Then I just left town with Rafael. Matt: It was a long time ago. Maggie: But I learned from it. Being with Rafael taught me a lot. He didn’t do anything wrong. It was a wild, thrilling ride with him, but we just went our separate ways. We left Bay City together, but we didn’t grow together, you know? I wanted to go to medical school and...he wanted to do...what he wanted to do. Matt: I can only imagine what that was. He worked for Carl before so whatever it was he was doing couldn’t have been savory. Maggie: I insisted he never tell me. Matt: Well I’m not judging you because Blair Baker, Jackie Warren, whatever her name was, she certainly wasn’t on the up and up, and I was head over heels for her...and Lila. Maggie: Well at least a blessing came out from you and Lila. Matt: Jasmine’s the apple of my eye. You should see her. She’s all grown up, and it happened so fast. Maggie: We both had to put our big girl and big boy pants on right? Time for us to become adults. Matt: You’re exactly right. I take it you’re gonna go see my mom. Maggie: Of course. I still know the way to the Corys. ----------------------------------------------------------- CORY MANSION Mitch: I bet you wanna buy him anything he wants now don’t you? You wanna spoil him just like I spoil my granddaughter. Felicia: Oh you admit it that you spoil Jasmine. Rachel walks downstairs. Rachel: Of course we do Felicia. Why are the living room doors closed? Mitch: Carl and Lorna in there. Felicia: And Devin Lucas. Rachel: Carl’s son? He’s here? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Devin Lucas: I hate this. You don’t have much time left dad. Carl: I had to make things right for you. I can’t leave this earth knowing that you’re not safe. Lorna: But you are now. We all are. Devin Lucas: Did you tell Cory and Elizabeth? Carl: All of the children know. Lorna: You’re having a party in a couple of days. Carl: Announcing it to everyone else. Devin Lucas: I wish there was...something I could do to give us more time together. Carl: Son, just be strong. You’ll have plenty of support. Lorna: You’ll have your brother and sisters; Mitch, your grandmother, and me. The three hug each other…as Felicia, Mitch and Rachel quietly watch. FREEZE FRAME ON FELICIA, MITCH, AND RACHEL…SLOW FADE OUT….END OF EPISODE 208

Lots of action in this episode...twists and turns as well....Avery is blind, Neil being shot, everyone finding out. Nate being punched out and carted off on a stretcher. Sister Patterson's hilarious third eye. And where are the others that were in that cabin? Who lives? Who dies? The sequence of events are playing in order...great aftermath episode.

This was a fun episode to read. The barbs between Reva and Blair were just excellent. Blair making fun of Reva's size, and Reva making fun of Blair's southern accent. Just splendid. Fun to read. Ben and Luke are "together". Poor Luke. He's about to get hurt. Gary must have hired Ben to get to Luke. I bet it has something to do with Holden's job. Malik and Dani's relationship is building. I like... You get Todd's character really well. I could see Roger Howarth exchanging those words with Sam, and Sam got Todd to print Trinity's piece. Jack Doe's timing was funny in that Todd was just talking about needing a personal secretary. Good episode!!

Ben turns on the charm to get to Luke. He’s manipulating poor unsuspecting Luke. The scenes are hot though. Morris and Eartha’s marriage continues to crumble. I wondered the same thing Morris wondered. Why did Eartha marry him in the first place? I’m also wondering why Morris married Eartha. I think they kinda used each other to get what they wanted. The teens – end of the school year means more trouble they can get into for the summer, outside of their jobs. Reva and Blair remind me of two lionesses fighting to be the Queen Bitch of the pride. I love it though. Art may be imitating life with these two as you write about it (behind the scenes with Guiding Light and One Life To Live) and if you are, it’s creative and a great poke at what goes on with soap divas. Great episode!!!!
