Dahlia "I can't believe what I am seeing here. Mark! I went to jail because of you. You and Natalia. I went to jail because of a faggot." Rufus "Don't label my man." Dahlia walks past Rufus and up in Mark's face "Answer me! What is this this?" Mark holds on to his manhood as tears roll down his face from the shock of being caught on the down low with Rufus biting his dick. He falls back on the couch and passes out from the alcohol. Dahlia shakes her head and rolls her eyes. She then looks at Rufus. Dahlia "Yuck. You should be ashamed of yourself." Rufus "Don't be mad at me girlfriend. I had him first. Before all you bitches. I bet he didn't tell you that, huh honey?" Dahlia "Before us? How long has this been going on?" Rufus "Right out of high school." Dahlia vomits all over Rufus upon hearing the news that the man she loved, slept with men before she came into the picture. Episode 91: Joy and Pain Written by: Durand Saint Hillarie and ML Cooks with Miou Slater Can I get a Witness West Coast Baptist Church The church is empty and quiet. Jodie stands at the end of the altar. She holds a folded jacket in front of her. She slowly heads toward the altar, her gaze locked on the statues of the virgin Mary and the baby Jesus. At the end of the isle are small, candle-filled tables. She approaches a table, lights a candle and closes her eyes. Tears stream down her face. After taking a deep breath, she opens her eyes and wipes the tears. Jodie "I can do this." She looks at the reflection in the window, checks her makeup and begins her walk down the long hall. She stops at the first door and walks into the room. Inside, a group of young men and women, ages ranging from seventeen to twenty-two, sit in a circle. They all become silent and turn in her direction as she closes the door behind her. Jodie "Sorry..." The leader of the group stands up. He is blonde with shoulder length hair. He has green eyes and an Australian Accent. His name is Heath. Heath "Hello.. please, come in! Join us..." Jodie smiles and heads toward a seat in the circle. Heath "I am Heath, and you are…..?" Jodie "Jodie." Heath "Everyone, please welcome Jodie." All "Hello..." Heath "Please, have a seat Jodie." Jodie sits down next to the youngest guy in the group. Heath sits down and turns his attention to the crowd. Next to Heath is a young man named Pedro. Heath "Where were we? Yes, I am nineteen years old. I was diagnosed with HIV on my eighteenth birthday... Before I moved out here to Pasadena, I lived in Miami. I used to think it was fun to sleep with older guys, didn't care much about protection or feelings. It was just sex... Most of the guys I slept with were twice my age." Others in the group begin sharing their stories. Heath "I ran away when I first found out. I couldn't bare to see the look on my mother's face . . . and my friends. That's how I ended up here." Pedro Have you talked to your parents since you found out? Heath "Man, they will never understand." Pedro "Do you miss them?" Heath "Yes. I miss them a lot. I have hundreds of letters..." Heath laughs. Heath "I wrote one everyday, but I never had the courage to mail them." Jodie "Are you happy?" Heath turns to Jodie. The look on his face comforts her. Heath "Never been more happier in my life." Jodie smiles as Heath looks at her. Heath "What's your story? How are you doing?" Jodie looks at him and pulls a cigarette out of her bag. Jodie "Do you mind if I smoke?" Heath "Not at all." Lina "Sweetie, around here, we don't do that kind of stuff. It's cheap and bad for your health... I got the real stuff." Jodie looks at the skinny woman. She is obviously sicker than everyone else in the room. She pulls out a bag of weed from her purse. Pedro "You always come prepared, don't you Nurse Lina?" Everyone laughs. Lina "Honey, it's clinically proven..." She rolls a cigar, and passes it around the room. Everyone is smoking, laughing and sharing their stories. Jodie looks around the room. She feels happy, a sense of love. She feels welcomed. Lina "The hospital left me to die at home. I don't have a home. This is my home." She gets up and takes hold of Heath's hand. Pedro puts his arms around her. Lina "You are my family." Heath "And we love you honey." Lina "And I love you, both of you." She squeezes Heath's cheeks and then does the same to Pedro. She turns to the crowd. Lina "All of you, you are all my family." Jodie "I was a prostitute..." The room turns quiet. Jodie takes another puff of her weed. Jodie "Right after Katrina hit New Orleans. Moved to Cleveland, worked the streets to make a living. I had nobody." She continued in spite of the tears filling her eyes. Jodie "No money. I had nothing. Drugs. Alcohol. You name it. I did it, all of it. Would I do it again? I don't know. I mean, look at me. Look at us, all of us. Can we really look back and regret this part of our lives? Or can we just forget the past and move on? How does anyone do that? Every freaking day, I wake up wondering if today is the day. What's going to happen? When is it going to happen? I hate it. I hate what I've become." Pedro "Darling, darling, this is not your fault." Jodie "Whose fault was it? The guy that gave it to me? God's? The parents who left me when I was a child? The system? The government?" Lina "You are not being fair to yourself." Jodie "I... I made the choice. A choice that turned out to be a mistake." The youngest in the room speaks up. He is a young boy named Jason. Jason "You didn't ask for this." He tries to get up from the chair, when suddenly he begins to cough up blood. Heath rushes to him. Heath "Jason?" Jason's breath becomes more labored. Jason "I can't breath." Heath "Somebody, call an ambulance." PASADENA TRAIN STATION Hope Brady is sitting with her ticket in hand and waits for the train to arrive. She pulls out her wallet and looks at a photo of her family. It's an older photo with JT, Bo, Shawn and her. She touches the photo. Suga walks up and sits next to her. Suga "Hey!" Hope looks at Suga who is pulling out a cigar. Hope "How did you find me?" Suga "That crazy old preacher lady told me I would find you here. You know, the bat they call Pat" Suga looks at the photo. Suga "Happy little family you got there." Hope "Mmmmm...had." She closes the wallet. Suga "You just going to go home. And then..." Hope "Please don't try to stop me." Suga "Honey, I am not going to stop you. I just...I hope you know what you are doing." Hope "I can't stay on the run forever." The train approaches the station. Suga "Well, if that cop husband of yours gives you any trouble, I am just a phone call away." Hope "Thanks Suga. You've been a real friend." Suga "Don't get all emotional on me now." Hope gets up from the bench. Suga remains seated. Suga "Well, get going or you'll miss the train." Suga looks away as Hope heads toward the train. She reaches the door and looks at Suga who sits on the bench, still looking away. Hope boards the train along with the other passengers. She takes her seat looks out the window at Suga as the train takes off. Only then, Suga watches the train roll past her. She wipes away the cascade of tears streaming down her face. She's alone once again. In her lonely place with her weed for comfort. CITY STREET Jodie walks in the street with her coat hugging tightly around her body. She wears it to hide her weight. The weed she smoked earlier is starting to work its magic. Her head starts spinning her eyes feel heavy. She wants to get home and find a place to lie down. As she stops at the corner and waits for the light to change, a white limo pulls up and stops next to her. The window rolls down. She sees Ty sitting in the back seat. He watches her and looks deep into her eyes. Then without a single word, the limo drives off. She realizes that this will be harder than she thought. The life she so desperately wants seems like a silly dream. Just as she is about to cross the street, someone places a hand on her shoulder. DC "Hello sexy ho." She is startled and nearly loses her balance. DC grabs her. DC "Easy there..." She collects her thoughts. Jodie "DC...what are you doing here?" DC "Are you okay? You look pale." Jodie "I am fine. Now would you mind!?" She starts to leave. DC "Not so fast. We still have that little bit of unfinished business." Jodie's headache is getting stronger and her patience with DC is wearing thinner. Jodie "Look, what do you want?" DC It's time for you to pay what you owe me. You ain't getting away that easy ho." Jodie "Dude fu(k off! I owe you sh!t!" People start gathering around. DC gives a fake smile to the crowd. He grabs a hold of Jodie's arms and pulls her toward him. DC As fast as I made you, I'll break you...you piece of sh!t. Just remember where you were before me. It's past time to pay what you owe me." Jodie "Or what?" DC "Don't push me!" Jodie "You aren't getting anything from me. I owe you nothing!" She spits in his face and pushes him aside. She jumps into the taxi. Jodie (to the taxi driver) "Drive!" As the taxi drives off, Ria exits the coffee shop, clapping her hands. She heads toward DC. Ria "You really know how to please a woman." DC "Don't you start on me." DC passes her and walks down the opposite direction. West wood Park Mike's House Jodie closes the door and walks into the kitchen. On the table next to a small tray with a couple different pills is a note from Mike. She opens the note and reads it. Jodie (reading the note) "Honey... I will be working late on my new case. Dinner is in the fridge. Don't forget the pills again. Love, Mike." She puts the note back on the table, throws the pills in the trash and walks out. In the bedroom Jodie lies on the bed. She tosses and turns as she sweats from a bad fever. Jodie "Mike..." She sits up. Her head is spinning and she is burning up. Jodie "Mike, where are you?" She tries to get up. Suddenly, she vomits a mixture of blood and the breakfast she had this morning all over the bed. She wants to go to the toilet. She forces herself off the bed, but she knocks over a lamp. It shatters as she collapses on the floor. She crawls on the floor. The pain in her belly increases. And the sweat pours from her as the pain engulfs her body. Jodie "Jesus... Mike... where the are you?" She holds her belly and tries to roll over. She screams in pain. She can't feel her legs. She throws vomits up again and then defecates on herself. The stench fills the room. She is lying in the waste from her own body. She wants to die. The bedroom door opens, and Mike walks in. Mike "What's the smell?" He sees Jodie sprawled on the floor. Mike "Oh my God, Jodie!" He rushes to her, picks her up and carries her out the front door. Huntington Memorial Hospital Heath, Pedro, and Lina are standing at the counter talking to the receptionist. The door opens and Mike rushes in carrying Jodie. Mike "I need a doctor! Somebody help!" Heath turns and recognizes the face. Heath "It's Jodie!" Mike places her on a gurney. Diego rushes to them. As the gurney is pushed away, Mike follows. Diego "What happened?" Mike "I found her like this." Heath and his friends watch Jodie's gurney being pushed through the double doors. Lina and Pedro embrace Mike. Nurse "Heath!" Heath turns to the nurse. Nurse "How's Jason?" Heath rushes to the room. Lina and Pedro follow. Jason lies in the bed. His eyes are open but his life is gone. Heath looks at the body. He grabs Jason's cold hand and closes Jason's eyes. Lina and Pedro stand by the door and hold each other. Mike stands outside the door and watches Diego as he and the nurses work their magic on Jodie. Down the hall, Ashley opens Natalia's door and walks in room. She is dressed in a nurse's outfit. She holds a tray with a needle on it. Ashley closes the door behind her, and closes the small blind. Natalia "Who's here?" Ashley "Shhhh..." She grabs the needle and heads toward the bed. Ashley "Hello Nat! Remember me?" Natalia sees Ashley raise the needle. Dahlia has her hand on the door handle to the room. Ashley sees the door handle turning. The door opens. Dahlia "What are you doing?"

In an undisclosed location in Pasadena Dr. Diego Serrano walks into the room where Ashley is huddled over the cubicle. A baby is inside. Diego "He appears to be fine for a preemie." Ashley "He has Bryan's genes. Of course, my little man is a fighter." Diego checks the infant's vital signs "His breathing is normal and his temperature is good. He's getting stronger. What are you going to name him?" Ashley (smiling) "Bryan Jr." Episode: 90, Hope and Pat Pray Written by ML Cooks and Tara Smith with Miou Slater Downtown Pasadena, SG Building Gilbert walks into Sabryn's office. The beauty of Sabryn's wedding dress sitting on the mannequin catches him off guard. Sabryn looks up at him as she makes a few alterations on her dress. Sabryn "Do you like it?" Gilbert "I'm blown away. You've outdone yourself. This is absolutely stunning." Sabryn "It is, if I do say so myself. Versace and Gucci have nothing on us. I designed this dress specifically to turn heads and to sh!t all over Divine Design." Gilbert "Indeed. It's time SG get back on top where we belong." Sabryn tries to hug Gilbert, but her enlarged belly gets in the way. They both laugh. Gilbert "It looks like you're about to drop any minute now." Sabryn "Kiko says 3 more weeks." Gilbert "Just in time for your wedding." Sabryn sits down and exhales "I've waited all my life for this moment. I'm finally marrying the man I love and we're going to be a family." Gilbert "Sabryn, can I be honest with you about something? I mean we have known each other for years now, been working together since we had the little shop downtown." Sabryn "Of course, speak, say whatever is on your mind Gilly. I hope you know that you're one my closest and dearest friends." Gilbert "I am in love with you Sabryn." Sabryn "I don't know what to say. I'm overwhelmed. Gilly, please don't take this the wrong way, but I didn't think you were into women." Gilbert plants a passionate kiss on Sabryn. She pulls away from him. Sabryn "Oh my God, no!" Gilbert "What's the matter?" Sabryn "My water just broke." In a back alley on the west side of town. Hope waits for Suga's answer. Hope "Answer me, did you shoot Natalia?" Suga "Why does it matter? You're already on the run for murder aren't you? I think you have enough to worry about right now ma." Hope "I just can't take much more of this. A pregnant woman gets shot and I saw it happen!" Hope and Suga turn around and see the mighty Sister Patterson. Sister Pat "The devil has gotten a hold of ya but I am here, Lord have Mercy, to save your soul." Suga runs off. Hope stands still. She is intrigued by the sight of this holy woman. Sister Patterson grabs Hope's arm and drags her inside of the Can I Get A Witness West Coast Baptist Church. Sister Patterson "Thank the Lord for my third eye. I've been looking for you. My third eye never fails me child. We need to pray. You got the devil in ya. I know all about it. You're smoking that stuff, ain't ya!?" Hope "I . . . I don't know what you're talking about! You drag me inside some church and interrogate me like you're my mother! What do you want from me?!" Sister Patterson "I'm doing the good Lord's work. Child, don't you lie in my Father's house. Get on your knees now Hope Brady! You're a crackhead and a murderer! You think I don't know what's going on? Thou shall not kill and thou shall not be a basehead!" She slaps Hope. Sister Patterson "That's for being a dummy! Now bow that head and let us pray! God and Miss Jenkins are watching us." Hope tries rubbing out the sting of Sister Patterson's slap to her face. Hope "How do you know all this?! You can't . . . you can't possibly know. Oh God! I can't have another person trying to turn me in! I can't get executed! You want to know why I smoke crack? It keeps me sane. I don't want to . . . I have to!" Sister Patterson "Child, I am a soldier on the battlefield of sin for my God. It is his good work that I do. He gave me my third eye to help others. It lets me see things others don't. Lately, for some reason, my third eye hasn't been catching everything. But I will tell you something . . .when you do not know, or you're going through hard times, turn to God! He will see you through. You have to trust him. This is not about me turning you in. It's about doing what is right. You must right the wrong you have done. You have two children at home who need you. Stop running. End it all here. Say no to drugs and stop the violence." Hope begins to calm down. Being in the church begins to soothe her. Soon she comes out of her hysterical state. Hope "Sister, if I could take it all back I would . . . but haven't I gone too far to turn back? Killing Gina, drinking, pushing everyone out of my life, smoking . . . it's out of control. I don't know if I can end it or how to end it." Sister Patterson It's never too late. Every day is a new chance. A new beginning. He will forgive you. And once you stand up and do the right thing, everyone else will follow your lead. Your step mother is in jail because of you. She's a pillar of the Salem community, isn't she? How does that make you feel?" Hope "Oh Lord, yes . . . my guilt came back to haunt me when I read that...it really did. I shouldn't have gotten her into this. I'm not a bad person, I'm really not. Bo doesn't seem to understand that. I thought he would at one time, but I am so afraid that he despises me because of all of this." Sister Patterson "Talk to him. Let him know what's in your heart and on your mind. You two have been through a lot. You can get through this. Your love has stood the test of time. I would give anything to have a love like that." Sister Pat wipes a tear and turns away from Hope. Then, she suddenly pulls her bible out and presses it against Hope's forehead and begins to jerk her head back. Sister Patterson "In the name of Jesus, Amen." Sister Pat puts her bible away. Sister Patterson "Now get out of Pasadena. You belong in Salem. And when you get there, tell Celeste that I said hello. We go way back." Sister Pat leaves the church. TC Hotel, Ty' Office Ty and Karl look at Dre in bewilderment. Dre "My bad, didn't mean to interrupt." Karl "Son, you really need to get a new front desk attendant since Miss Jodie is dying." Ty "Get out!" Karl laughs and walks out the office. Ty "Dondre, what can I do for you? It's odd seeing you here." Dondre "I'm looking for work." Ty "I didn't know you had receptionist skills." Dre "That's not what I am taking about. I'm looking for some work. The same work Daniel and Santino do for you on the streets." Ty "What makes you think I am involved in street life?" Dre "Nobody's stupid here man. I need money. I need some work. I can push whatever you give me." Ty looks into Dondre's eyes and remains silent for a few moments. He takes a deep breath, looks out of his window overlooking the pond and thinks about Dre's offer. He wonders whether he can trust Dre, whether he can risk another new person involved in his double dealings. But at the same time, he recognizes that he needs an extra set of hands to do work in the streets since Daniel is no longer willing. One more person in the know. Tyler then walks over to his desk, opens a drawer and pulls out a wad of cash and throws it on the desk in front of Dre. He then walks over to the window. Dre "What is this?" Ty "It's for your first assignment." Dre counts out the wad of Ben Franks "Bet, tell me what's good?" Ty "Lauren and Jennifer are a problem for me right now." Dre "Yo girl?" Ty "No questions. Let's get that straight now. I pay you, you do what I say, that's the end of it. If you can't adhere to those rules, walk out now. You can keep the money either way." Dre "Chill out man. It's all good. Just tell me what you want me to do?" Ty "I think Santino and Jenn have something going on. I want you to keep tabs on her. Lauren has convinced Daniel to turn his back on me. She has to be taken out." Ty pulls out a gun from his holster and lays it on the desk. Dre "Kill Lauren?" Ty "Yes." Meanwhile, on Lavender Hill, Ty's Mansion The door bell rings. Jenn opens it and sees Lauren and Daniel. Jenn "Well, this is an unexpected surprise." Lauren "After watching the fashion show, I had to come see you. Is it OK if we come in?" Jenn "Sure . . . yes, of course." Daniel (walking in) "Is Tyler here?" Jenn "We're lucky, he's at the Hotel." Lauren "We are lucky? What does that mean?" Jenn "Nothing." Jenn hugs Lauren Jenn It's good too see you again." Lauren doesn't return the hug. The three of them stayed silent until Lauren decided to speak. Lauren "I'm just going to come right out and ask . . . Jennifer, why did you blackmail Jodie about her HIV status? That's the most despicable thing I can imagine anyone doing to someone else." Jenn "Oh good Lord! If you're here to preach, leave now. I did what I did and I am not sorry. I hate that diseased bitch. " Daniel "Sounds like you're the one who has become a bitch. What has gotten into you?" Lauren "Tyler will do that to a person." Jenn "Get the hell out of my house." Lauren "Don't you mean Tyler's house." Jenn "You're nothing but drunken slut. I don't need you Lauren. Rot in hell for all I care. I'm sorry that I wasted my time calling you my best friend. Now you've got your crackhead boyfriend back from the dead and you want to act like you better than everyone else. Who in the hell do you think you are? I'm living the good life. I want and need for nothing." Daniel "Don't talk to her like that." Jenn "Hey crackhead, can you do me a favor and please die again? Now get out of here before I call the guards." Suddenly Lauren faints into Daniel's arms. Back in Downtown Pasadena Ivory Inc. Karim walks off the elevator and sees his uncle flirting with his secretary Ladonna. Karim walks up to DC, turns him around and socks him in the jaw. Ladonna is stunned. Ladonna "I am so sorry Mr. Williams." DC "Boy what the hell you smoking? You lost your damn mind." Karim pushes DC into his office. DC "Talk your hands off me. Can't you see I'm an old man? Boy, I can still drop kick you." Karim "I know about your affair." DC "What you talking about?" Karim "Your brother's wife. My mom. You're sleeping with her. Why? How can you do this to you own brother?" DC "Your brother told you, didn't he?" Karim "You parade in here wanting a job and a cologne named after you. You're a selfish bastard who care about no one but yourself." DC "There's a lot you don't know boy. Two sides to every story. You were just a youngin' back then." Karim "Youngin? How long has this been going on?" DC "It's not like that. Go home and talk to your mother. She should be the one who tells you." Karim "Tell me what?" DC "It's not my place to get into it." Karim "Then maybe I can talk about it with my pops." Karim storms out of DC's office DC calls out to him "Come back here boy! You're going to give your father a stroke. Don't do something stupid! I'll knock the hell outta you." ***WARNING: The Following scene has EXTREMELY STRONG SEXUAL CONTENT!!!***** The sun has set in Pasadena. West Wood Park, Mark' House Mark crack opens his 5th can of MGD. He hears a knock and stumbles toward the door to answer. Rufus "Hey lover." Mark "Where's your dress and heels? You're going for the man look today?" Rufus "I did it for you baby. I remember whenever I'd dress like a man, you liked it." Rufus comes in and sees the beer cans scattered on the floor. Rufus "I am so sorry for you loss." Rufus and Mark wrap their arms around each other. Rufus moves his hand down Mark's body. He stops at Mark's crotch and begins to rub it. Mark closes his eyes and moans. Rufus (whispers in Mark's ear) "Can I taste it?" He bites down on Mark's ear. The moans continue. Mark loses his balance and falls onto the couch. Mark can't remember how many beer he's had. He doesn't want to remember anything. All he wants at that moment is to keep drinking and get some cheap thrills, which he knows Rufus will be more than willing to supply. Mark unzips his pants and signals to Rufus to get a taste of what he's craving. Rufus kneels down and pulls Mark's d!ck out of his boxers. Mark's toes curl as Rufus teases him by slowly surrounding it with his mouth. Mark pours his beer over his dick and Rufus's mouth. Mark's body shivers from the cold beer running down his balls and moans once again. Rufus licks up the beer from his penis. The door opens and startles Rufus. He looks up and sees Dahlia. A drunk Mark seems unaware. His eyes remain closed and with his back arched, his head thrown back, he grabs Rufus's head and guides him to his love pole. Dahlia (stunned by seeing her ex lover with Rufus) "My God. Mark, you're a faggot!"

Huntington Memorial Hospital Ria sits next to Natalia's hospital bed, holding her motionless hand. Ria "I'm so sorry girl. I never meant to hurt you. You're like my sister . . my white sister . . . I love you. Please, wake up." Jodie and Mike walk into the room. Jodie "How is she?" Ria "She hasn't opened her eyes since the surgery." Jodie "What about the baby?" Ria (tears rolling down her face) "She lost it. Diego couldn't save the baby." Jodie "Oh my God. Who would do this to her? Who would shoot a pregnant woman?" Mike "Natalia has a lot of enemies." Ria "That's still doesn't give anyone the right to shoot her." Ria (walks up to Jodie and hugs her) "I am so sorry getting involved with Jennifer. I had no idea what you were dealing with. I know it's too late, but I never meant to help Jennifer in this war with you. I didn't know it was that deep. Girl, if I could change the hands of time, I would." Jodie "Apology accepted. We all make mistakes. I guess what's important is that we learn from them. I've certainly learned from mine." Ria "I have say this . . . I've got to give you props for telling everyone about your HIV status. It takes a real woman to tell the truth. You've got more guts than anyone I know. And you nipped your war with Jenn in the bud . . . congratulations. I had no clue that she could be so mean. Blackmailing another person about her HIV status is a cryin' shame." Jodie "Thank you Ria, thank you for your kind words and support. I really appreciate it." Ria (looks at Mike) "You've got a good man here. I don't know many other men would stand by their woman in a situation like this one. I am curious though, you ain't knocking boots, are ya'?" Mike "What . . . where do you get off? That's private." Ria "Uh huh." Natalia begins to move and her eyes slowly open. Natalia "My baby . . . how is my baby?" Jodie and Ria look at each other. Neither wants to break the news that the child that was growing inside of Natalia is no more. Episode 89, Where's the Polygrip? Written by: ML Cooks with Miou Slater In the waiting area of the Hospital. Diego is talking with Mark "I'm sorry but the baby didn't make it. Now if you will excuse me, I have some things to do." Mark feels like he has been hit by a truck. He is unable to muster the strength at the news of his first born child is dead. Mark takes a few steps back and then turns around only to bump into Dahlia. Mark "Dahlia?" Dahlia "Yes, it' me." Mark "This can't be happening. This is a dream." Mark closes his eyes and slaps himself. He reopens his eyes to see that Dahlia still stands in front of him. Dahlia walks up to Mark and delivers a slap across his face. Dahlia "Bet that felt real. You're not dreaming. I am here and alive." Mark "I thought you died in the trash compactor at the Stink SO Good Waste Management Site?" Dahlia "No such luck. I was rescued." Mark "Rescued? Where have you been all this time?" Dahlia "Right here in Pasadena." Mark "This whole time you've been here? What in the hell is going on? Why did you make me believe that you were dead?" Dahlia "I found out about your one night with Natalia and about the baby of yours she was carrying, up until she got shot." Mark "How do you know all of this? Why did you hide from me? Do you know how crazy things have been without you in my life? I don't understand." Dahlia "Well your baby's mother paid Suga to stab me while I was in jail. I can't have children because of her. And now she won't be able to have kids either!" Mark "So this is your revenge? This is why you're back? You're the one who shot Natalia? You killed my unborn child!" Walking the Streets of Pasadena Hope and Suga walk past the Rose Bowl Stadium. Hope "I watch the Rose Bowl parade every year. It's so beautiful." Suga "It can be." Hope "Where are we going?" Suga "I really don't know with Natalia being shot. That bitch doesn't have my money." Hope "I can't believe it. My first day in Pasadena and I see someone get shot." Suga "She had it coming to her." Hope "Who was that woman, Dahlia?" Suga "Someone I thought was dead." Hope "Is she the one you stabbed for Natalia?" Suga "Something like that." Hope "I hope she don't turn us in to the police." Suga "They won't find us." Hope "Can I ask you something?" Hope stops and Suga stops along with her. Suga "What's on your mind ma?" Hope "I didn't see you for awhile at the Fashion Show. " Suga "Yeah, so?" Hope "After Natalia was shot, you reappeared. I used to be a cop." Suga "Wow, an ex cop murdering people and smoking crack. I have seen it all." Hope "You held Dahlia at gun point. You have a gun. Did you shoot Natalia?" Pasadena City Jail Rufus walks up to Alexis's jail cell. Rufus "Girlfriend, I've got good news for you!" Alexis "About Natalia's shooting. I already know." Rufus "Even behind bars, word does travel fast." Alexis freezes as she remembers that her sister Ashley is the first one who broke the news to her about Natalia's shooting. Alexis "We get the news in here. Hold on . . . you don't like Natalia. Did you shoot that bitch?" Rufus "Does that really matter? That bitch is about to die. I can have my man in peace and you can have your company back. It's practically ruined now thanks to Jennifer and Jodie. " Alexis "You're a killer. I can't believe you shot her! She's pregnant!" Rufus "Natalia is your best friend now? Where did all this compassion come from? So what if she is pregnant? She had it coming to her." Alexis "That's besides the point. Sure, I've never liked her but that is no reason to wish her dead. What about the baby she's carrying?" Rufus "I am done talking about Natalia. Who cares who shot her? She's out of our lives. We got what we wanted. You should be happy. " Alexis "This gets worse and worse. Divine Design won't recover. Jodie has AIDS, Natalia gets shot at the fashion show and now Ash…" She stops, catching herself before she says the name Ashley. Rufus "Ash? What does that mean?" Alexis "Never mind. I need to be alone. Come back tomorrow." Rufus "You want to be alone while you're sitting behind bars? When I was in jail, I was always glad to have visitors. But what ever flies your hair back." Rufus walks off. Alexis lies down on her cot. Alexis (thinking to herself) "I have to tell Ashley that Rufus shot Natalia. Or did she? Maybe it was Ashley? She's crazy enough. Is my sister capable of murder? This is a nightmare." The Williams House Sister Patterson walks back into her house after coming from the house across the street. Karim "Ma, what's going on here?" Sister Pat jumps up. Seeing her son startles her. Sister Pat "Are you trying to give me a stroke?" Karim "What's with the ski mask? Why are you dressed like that?" Sister Pat (realizing she is dressed like she's about to rob a bank) "Don't you dare question me in my own house. I do the questioning here. Starting with you Kevin." She walks over to her eldest son. Sister Pat "I want you out of this house now. No son of mine disrespects me by talking to me like you did. Telling Miss Jenkins to kiss your black ass. Don't know one talk about Miss Jenkins." Sister Pat (slaps Kevin) "You didn't block me that time. Simple Bastard." Karim "Ma you need to relax!" Sister Pat "I beg your pardon? Kevin has turned you against me too?" Karim "I want some answers." Pat "And I told you, don't question me." Kevin "Surprised your third eye didn't tell you I was going to be here." Pat "You're mocking me now? Get out, now!" Karim "We're not going anywhere until you tell us the truth! Are you cheating on pops with DC?" Sister Pat stays silent. She wipes a tear from her eye and she turns away from her son. Sister Pat "Lord have mercy . . .I am a disgrace. I betrayed my family. And Miss Jenkins ain't talking to me no more." Kevin "It never ends. Not only is Pat a home wrecker, she's a lunatic. Miss Jenkins . . . Miss Jenkins . . . Miss Jenkins." Sister Pat takes her fancy belt off her pants, which triggers some painful childhood memories in Kevin. He runs out the front door. Sister Patterson chases her son down the street wielding a belt. Karim (watching) "Unbelievable." He gets into his car and drives off. Downtown Pasadena Jennifer steps outside of the Dentist's office. Santino greets her with Ty's limo. Jenn "Where is Tyler?" Santino "He's at the hotel." Jenn "Thank God." Santino "So everything's OK in your mouth? Jodie really did a number on you." Jenn (getting into the limo) "Thanks for rubbing it in. Can we just please go to the mansion?" Santino hops into the drivers seat and drives off. Santino "You know, Ty is pretty heated about what you did." Jenn "I don't care. As long as the world knows that nasty skank has AIDS, I couldn't care less about what anyone else has to say. She didn't win the war. I did. I just can't believe Mike is with her." Santino "I can't believe you're with Ty?" Jenn (looks at Santino through the rear view mirror) "You know, sometimes, I wonder why I am still with him. I really don't know. He doesn't respect me. But maybe now he will. Now that he knows Jodie is off the market for good, he'll give me his undivided attention." Santino "I could give you that." Santino pulls over to the side of the road and hops into the back seat with her. Jenn "What are you doing?" Santino "Finishing what we started back in Cleveland." Jenn "I don't think that's such a great idea." Santino (leaning closer and blowing softly in her ear) "Why not? " Jenn (quivering) "There's no telling what Ty would do. He would kill us." Santino looks Jenn in the eyes, "Kiss me." Jenn "I can't. Thanks to that AIDS victim, I had to get false teeth and I' not used to them yet." Just as she says that, her top denture falls out of her mouth and into Santino's lap. Jenn's face turns red. Santino chuckles, grabs her face and kisses her anyway. TC Hotel Ty's office Karl (walks into his son's office) "Where have you been?" Ty "Why?" Karl "Son, no need to talk to your father in that tone. I am here to help." Ty "Help me how? You've have been mooching off me for the last few months." Karl "Is that what it's called these days? I thought it was called family." Ty "I can't believe Jennifer is capable of all of this. Now it makes sense why she really went to Cleveland. I had no idea she hated Jodie this much." Karl "It's even crazier that Jodie and Mike are together. I feel sorry for that man. She might be going to jail." Ty "I'm sure he already knew. He's an ex cop. She may be sick but I know she is not stupid." Karl "Aren't you smitten by her?" Ty "Not any more. I love my life. And to think we almost kissed. " Karl "There are reporters camped outside the mansion and this hotel thanks to your blonde bimbo. Something has got to be done. She has put you where you don't want to be . . . into the spotlight." Ty "You're right for once. She has been making trouble for a while. She's bringing too much heat on my operations." Karl "Jenn has to go. The sooner the better. I can silence her tonight." Ty "No . . . no, I'll take care of her myself. Once and for all." Dondre walks into Tyler's office. Karl and Ty look at each other, bewildered. Back at Huntington Memorial Natalia's room, Natalia looks around in her room. She sees Ria, Mike and Jodie. Natalia "Where am I?" Ria sits down next to her "You just got out of surgery girl. How do you feel?" Natalia (looking down at her stomach) "I remember the show. Then I heard a gunshot . . . the bullet hit me, didn't it. Someone shot me." She looks at Ria. Natalia "My baby. Just tell me my baby is OK." Ria squeezes Natalia's hand. Her eyes fill up with tears Ria "Honey, the baby didn't make it. I'm so sorry. You lost the baby." Natalia screams. The entire emergency room comes to a standstill. Somewhere, in an undisclosed location in Pasadena Ashley is singing "Hush little baby don't say a word, momma's gonna buy you a mocking bird." Ashley steps around a cubicle. Inside is a baby hooked up to medical monitoring devices. "Little one, your daddy and I will soon be a family. We're waiting for that big wedding to crash. We will be the talk of the town. Sabryn won't know what hit her. Bryan will finally be mine."

Natalia i straight tripping. I wonder what she is going to do. And Alan Mike snapping those photos, I know this won't be Good. He gone play the evil card to get his lil piece chocolate. I ain't mad at ya. I felt like The Ashlee Coop scene could have been a little deeper . It was like damn she came at him full force and after a few words she blamed herself and started crying. I am assuming Ol girl did something to make it seem like she was "naked"

LOL what the hell is attractive about Alan? Alan Gus, come on do the math. Natty wake up. Another good episode. Loved the surprised bachelor party. The series does really hold my attetion and wants me wanting more.

this was a slower episode but we all have them. The ending was nice. One thing I do want to say it's a little hard to figure out who is speaking at times. Not only do I have to figure out who is who and what goings on, I have to figure out who is saying what and when. Do u see what I am saying?

Hell now G betta leave Remy alone. Very nice ending though. Loved the girlfriends scenes. I am loving this blog more and more as I read each episode. I do notice you seem to have a lot of storylines. So me getting used to everything will take some time. But in this ep I have no quetions. I guess that's a good thing

this was a very dramatic episode. SO much is going on. I love it. Now I got a few questions, Jeffery is cheating on Reva with Marah or am I missing something? And can u please explain Harley, Tammy and her cousin thing. I love Mel and Alan Micheal.. But he did bring up a good point of asking her y is her relation to Frank on the DL

Love Rebbeca, heather Tom or maybe even Christie Clark

Like I said when I first started, I love how its set up. I now see you are using set pics as well. Love it. You got a great creation here, now its time for episode 45

I am really liking your blog more and more. I love Remy and Blake and love her dick comments. LOL I loved the scenes with Alan Micheal and Mel. They are hot together too. I loved that twist with Ava. I did not see that coming at all. Her first scene I was like typical girl lying about her pregnancy but then in fact she is pregnant. GREAT TWIST. Another good episode.

I just love any scene with Remy. It seems the ladies are clinging to him. So what's the deal with him and Nat? And poor Lizzie. She reminds of Jodie from S.T.E.A.M. I really feel for her. How old is she? And I loved the c02 scenes. Mother/daughter vs Mother Daughter. Loved it. I know there is no love lost between Olivia and Reva.

WOW o much is going on. I am getting into to this more and more. I really like the Reva and Josh scene. Esp the 2nd one. I could so tell they love each other and you didn't need words to convey that. Good job writing that. I am also interested in Shayne and Marina. She was rapped. DO we know by home? PS You have a beautiful cast!! I loved Harley first scene with the kids. It's pure and just nice. Good job with that one. And wow to Liz having cancer. she looks so young. I loved her scenes. I know she felt so embarrassed when her hair was falling out. I really feel bad for her. Where do she got cancer? Oh and what is sick is Natalia and Alan. Yuck. But I was also shocked to see them like that. I can't wait to see how this triangle plays out. Sorry I have been distant on my postings. (Been SUPER busy)
