Always good to see parts of the Michele and Bridget story. It is still probably my favorite. Awesome use of the selfie and Facepage. I am so excited to see what comes out of this. Bridget is certainly up to something devious. I hope Michele is prepared for it. I;m glad she has someone on her side in Elizabeth. Vicky and Jake had a tense confrontation. Jake always mad about his children which is commendable. He really seems to want a divorce and I have to say I am glad Vicky is hot about it. I still find myself more on her side. Devin was straight up with Carl and it made for some amazing scenes. They were really great, man. Just plain Raw. I love how you are dealing with this issue. Felicia also coming in and finding out about Devin too. I wonder when her druggedupness will hit.. Like I have been saying I like these interconnected scene cuts. Makes for a good read like ML said. Great ep!

The chaos continues in GC! I loved Drus reunion with her sister and her daughter. Leslie finding it sketchy and then of course Sister Patterson making her presence known. Her and Dru could probably be good friends rofl. "Watch your mouth talking around an angel" "If its Sheila attack her!" lmao good lines I like Rafe wanting more out of Scotty and Scotty still thinking about Mary who very well could be dead and lead him to the path of the D. Leslie has now met Hilary. And Rox has arrived. That could be firedworks in the next episode. Avery coming in blind but where are the other victims?! :O And Neil flatlining at the end right as Dru asking about him :( He best not die because I will picket outside of CBS and send various e mails to Steve Kent of sony!!! lolol A lot of aftermath still to come. The build is great and still edge of our seat stuff. This has been a brilliant build, climax and now aftermath!

Written by: Nick M. Jesse and Angie are sitting together at their home. Jesse is feeding Angie a grape. JESSE: Feeling like a queen yet? ANGIE: You are doing a good job of making me feel like one. JESSE: I am just glad we actually have a day off together! ANGIE: I know. It has not been happening much. Jesse kisses her on the cheek. She returns the favor with a kiss on the lips. JESSE: Juicy. ANGIE: That’s the grapes. JESSE: Nope. Definitely your lips, Angie. They kiss again and fall back onto the couch. -- Chavo and Greg come to see Vin. Vin seems to be in a great mood. CHAVO: This is a change of pace for your mood, Vin? VIN: Yeah I am in a better mood because things are looking up, guys! GREG: Does this have something to do with Ali? VIN: Of course it does. CHAVO: Has she finally come to see you again? VIN: Not yet, but she has agreed to come and talk to me! CHAVO: Really? VIN: Yes. GREG: How did you get a hold of her? CHAVO: Yeah, Where was she? VIN: Don’t worry about it guys. The only thing that matters is that she has agreed to see me! Vin smiles. -- Bart arrives at the coffee shop. He goes inside and looks at the menu. HUNTER: Hi sir. What would you like? BART: Something strong. I did not sleep well. I have these nervous bouts. HUNTER: That sucks. I have some espresso that will get you ready to go. Meanwhile, The odd Jeremy is inside sitting at a table. He looks up and see Bart. His eyes get big… JEREMY: Could it be?! Jeremy continues to stare at Bart. Bart turns and sees Jeremy staring at him but turns back around waiting for his coffee. JEREMY: Oh my god. I know him… -- Cut to Steve, Kayla, Roman, Hope and Carly. ROMAN: We need to consider the big possibility here. HOPE: No we don’t. CARLY: I’d like to agree with Hope actually. HOPE: You don’t have to go there, Carly. STEVE: I don’t know how I feel about this. KAYLA: Me either. ROMAN: It is the facts though. Remains were found in Bo’s charred car. The cold hard truth is that we may have to declare Bo dead. HOPE: Dammit, Roman no. I am telling you I would know if he was dead. CARLY: Can we really go off of one of your hunches though? HOPE: I am his wi…well I was his wife. I should get to make this decision. CARLY: I was once Bo’s wife too. STEVE: I have to agree with Hope. I am not ready to declare him dead. There is still too much we do not know. ROMAN: What else do you want to know? STEVE: You need to find out who was in charge at the ISA for Bo’s case. KAYLA: The ISA is really dropping the ball here. It has me uncomfortable. STEVE: I agree sweetness. Something continues to smell fishy. -- Cut to an alive Bo. He is still tied up in chains against the wall. He continues to try and pull at the chains but his wrists have become extremely bruised and cut up. BO: This is getting so painful. He looks on at his wrists. BO: I don’t know how much longer I can keep up this pulling. His energy level seems to have dropped a lot. BO: I’m losing blood from these cuts. What a nightmare. What am I going to do?! He looks on in distress… At the womens shelter: Charlotte walks up to Ali. CHARLOTTE: Please tell me you are not seriously considering leaving here to meet your as*hole ex… ALI: I need to break up with him once and for all. Besides, I told you this in confidence so please keep it down. CHARLOTTE: I don’t believe that you plan on breaking up with him if you go see him. ALI: I left so quietly and meekly. I want to do better. CHARLOTTE: I just know how this goes. I fell for it a lot too. You cannot let him talk you into these types of things. Ali sighs. CHARLOTTE: Can I show you something? ALI: Of course. Charlotte goes and grabs her purse. CHARLOTTE: Look at this picture of my ex. I have an X through it with a marker. She hands Ali the picture and Ali looks at it. CHARLOTTE: It is a reminder to myself to know that I am away from him for a reason. Perhaps you should try something similar to remind yourself. Ali continues to look at the picture. -- Back at the Hubbard house: Angie is cleaning up a little. She looks over at Jesse who is lost in thought. ANGIE: Earth to Jesse! What is on your mind? JESSE: Natalia and her wanting to come back to the force. ANGIE: You should just take that a little at a time. She is going to have to take small steps herself. JESSE: I don’t think she should come back to the force. I do not want this to happen to her again. ANGIE: She is already making strides though, Jesse. You cannot just shut out the possibility of her coming back to the force completely. JESSE: She is still in the hospital Angie. ANGIE Not for long. JESSE: …What do you mean? Is my baby getting released soon? (he smiles) ANGIE: More than soon. She is getting released today! JESSE: Why are you just telling me this now? ANGIE: She wanted it to be a surprise. In fact, She may be showing up her soon… -- At the coffee shop: Jeremy is still looking at Bart. Jeremy gets up, but then he sits back down. He seems very nervous and fidgety. JEREMY: Should I approach him? He stands up. JEREMY: I should probably think twice about bothering him. He sits back down. Hunter hands Bart his coffee and Bart exits the place. JEREMY: Crap, I missed my chance. However, a huge grin comes over Jeremys face. JEREMY: This is purely amazing. He gets up and leaves the coffee shop seeming giddy… -- Cut to chained up Bo. As he sits there in his chains he looks straight ahead. He has a flashback: Bo is in his car. He makes a phone call. BO: Hello…Agent Donnelly…Yes this is Agent Bo Brady. I have made some progress on this. Yes…but I think I need some back up. This could start to get dangerous if my hunches are right. AGENT DONNELLY: Alright Bo. I will be sending two agents for back up. They will arrive by tomorrow. BO: Thank you. I just know this will be linked to Stefano. It always is. Bo hangs up. He then looks towards a house. The house he happens to be chained up in now... BO: Could this be Dimera property? Bo comes back into the present. He puts his head down as he sits there dejected. -- Steve is sitting with Terrance, Roman and Hope. STEVE: Roman and Terrance we need to find out which head at the ISA was in charge of Bos investigation. TERRANCE: I’ve tried and it has not been easy. ROMAN: That is because you are a little guy on the totem pole. STEVE: Roman. Please find out the info for us. ROMAN: I will try, Steve. Roman walks off and takes out his phone. Roman seems frustrated. Carly and Kayla look at him. CARLY: Is your brother okay? KAYLA: I don’t know. I don’t know if any of us are right now. HOPE: Steve, I wish you guys could find out some really needed info. STEVE: We will Hope. TERRANCE: We have been working hard, but it is like someone has been keeping us back. STEVE: Yup. Something shady is going on with the ISA. HOPE: Whatever it is, if it got Bo in danger, you two need to be careful. -- Natalia has arrived at Jesse and Angies house. Natalia walks in with her cane. JESSE: Baby be careful. Do you need help? NATALIA: I am good, dad. ANGIE: She has started to get back around great. JESSE: This is so good baby. You are a fighter for sure. NATALIA: I was taught well. I was worried you were still upset with me dad. JESSE: I am not upset with you. NATALIA: Good. JESSE: I am thrilled for you that you are alive and recovering! Jesse embraces his daughter. JESSE: Get in here Angie! Angie piles in for a group hug. -- At the womens shelter: CHARLOTTE: I am not getting through to you am I Ali? ALI: I just feel like I should do this. CHARLOTTE: Im glad I tried. Maybe you should at least talk to Miss Cho before you leave. ALI: You know I plan on coming back after right? CHARLOTTE: I hope you get to. ALI: Don’t say that! CHARLOTTE: Just please talk to Miss Cho before you leave and meet with Vin. Charlotte walks off. Charlotte starts to put the picture of her ex with the X through it back in her purse. Zoom in on the picture….It is a picture of Jeremy! -- Jeremy arrives at his house. He rushes to his bedroom. He opens his closet door. There are no clothes in his closet. There are pictures and articles taped to his wall in the closet... He starts to look over them. He has pictures of Charles Manson, James Stenbeck, and Roger Thorpe. The articles on his wall are of Jeffrey Dahmer, Sheila Carter, Carl Hutchins, and Reginald Love. He then gets to a picture with Stefano, Kate Roberts and Lucas. And then a picture of Stefano and Bart. JEREMY: Yes! There it is! That was him! He smiles at the picture of Stefano and Bart and then looks at an article next to it on Stefano. He then runs his hand over all of the pictures and articles... JEREMY: Such brilliant minds…I need to be like them… -- At The Johnson/Brady house: Terrance feels woozy and stumbles a bit. STEVE: Woah there, dude! KAYLA: Are you okay, Terrance? TERRANCE: I am fine.. KAYLA: Are you sure? TERRANCE: Yes I think I just need something to eat, I am starving. STEVE: I’ll see what is in the fridge. Roman meanwhile is still on his phone looking at something. Hope goes and stands by Kayla. HOPE: This is hitting your brother hard, though he probably won’t admit it. KAYLA: Yeah something is up. Seems like something is eating him up. Roman gets up and walks outside. He looks back through the window at Steve and Kayla by the refrigerator. He takes a deep breath. -- Bo has another flashback: Bo is at the house he found suspicious. (The one he is now locked up in) Bo looks at his watch. BO: I thought they were sending me back up today? Where are they? He walks out from behind the house. He looks towards his car. BO: What the hell?! Bo heads back to his car quickly. Someone is inside his car! He gets to the car to see that the person inside is unconscious. BO: That’s an agent! He is about to open the door but someone whacks him in the head from behind! That knocks Bo out cold… Cut back to the present to a frustrated Bo. BO: How did I let this happen!? He yanks at his chains -- Meanwhile, Upstairs in the house. Bart has arrived back. Bart hears a voice… “Hello Bart” Bart jumps as he turns and sees Stefano standing inside! Bart drops his keys. BART: Stefano! STEFANO: I told you I was coming. BART: We-welcome sir. STEFANO: And as promised I am not alone. One of the people that has helped us immensely has come to meet us here too. The person walks into the room… FADE TO BLACK Credits roll I do not own any non original characters nor any pics.

Written by: Nick M. Danielle and Malik walk out of Chic Spirit Designs together. DANI: Yet another short day for us models. MALIK: I think they are still getting things all figured out at this new company. DANI: Yeah I guess so. MALIK: It’s been easy for us at least. DANI: That’s one way to look at it. MALIK: Yeah. I mean we are on salary so we have it made. DANI: We lucked out somehow for being two rookies to this game. MALIK: Its our fresh attractive faces. Danielle giggles. MALIK: Hey we should go get some coffee somewhere. Chat more about our new adventure as models. DANI: Sounds good. I would love to. Malik flashes her a bright smiles. -- Meanwhile at the park: Ben and Luke have met up. BEN: Thanks for coming to see me. LUKE: It’s almost like you love to keep me away from actually working. BEN: The middle of the day just seems like the best time to see you, I guess. LUKE: I’m not complaining for the record. BEN: I hope not. You know as good as I do that the other day was smokin' hot. LUKE: Oh yeah. I loved every minute of it. BEN: I’m glad you gave in so that we could feel that pleasure. I just hope it is going to happen again soon. LUKE: I hope it happens again soon, too. However… BEN: However what? Something wrong? LUKE: I just have a question… Ben looks caught off guard.. -- Reva is at the supermarket. She heads towards the meat department. As she gets closer Blair is also there and the two get into each other’s way. BLAIR: Please god, no. Not today. Both women quickly get tense as they see each other. REVA: Just move so this ends fast. BLAIR: No. You can be the one that moves. REVA: Let’s not be children about this. BLAIR: Don’t get all holier than thou after you threw coffee on me. REVA: Total accident and you know it. BLAIR: Whatever Reva beast. REVA: Excuse me what did you say? BLAIR: Oh, nothing. REVA: You sure did. You are just ridiculous for some reason. Sometimes I think you are being followed around by cameras like you are on some cheap reality show probably called the Blair B*tch project. Blair looks around as people in the store are starting to give them both looks. BLAIR: Leave it to your hick a** to cause a scene. REVA: Who are you calling a hick? Have you heard your own accent, country bumpkin? I don’t want to cause a major scene though so I will be the bigger woman and walk away. BLAIR: Bigger woman? Yeah, you have no competition there. Reva starts to go around Blair. BLAIR: I gotta go find me a butterball…no offense. (smirks) REVA: That’s it. Reva turns back around and glares at Blair… -- Todd is in his office working at his computer. TODD: Gary needs to find me more info on this absurd search for a mystery document. There is a knock at his office. It is Sam. TODD: Hey there Sam. SAM: Hi Todd. TODD: Something up? SAM: I just wanted to know how you liked mine and Trinity’s articles. TODD: I really liked your article on the Broncos. It will be in tomorrows edition. SAM: What about Trinity’s piece? It blew mine away. TODD: Yeah…It was…interesting. SAM: Something wrong with it? TODD: Well she wrote about a big issue. Race is a gigantic issue right now… SAM: Yeah she did it on a touchy issue, but she did a powerful job which will makes a person think. TODD: Yeah, but she is just a teenager I don’t know if readers want to hear some girl preaching to them. SAM: She wasn’t preaching. I was there, she was speaking from the heart. TODD: She did well, but I don’t know if it is for this paper. SAM: Are you saying you are not going to publish it? TODD: I don’t know if I want the controversy… Sam is very disappointed to be hearing this… Malik and Danielle are sipping on their coffees together. DANI: So tell me about this first photo shoot you get to do. MALIK: Sadly I do not know all the details yet. DANI: You are so lucky that you get to go first. MALIK: It is a lot of pressure. The first campaign for the company. DANI: Yeah, that is true. MALIK: Are you saying you want all that pressure? DANI: No not at all! MALIK: Ha! Didn’t think so. DANI: I am sure it will be fun though. And I wish you luck! They clink their coffee cups together. -- At the Park: BEN: What did you want to ask me, Luke? LUKE: This may be a stupid question. BEN: No such thing. LUKE: I just want to know if…if we are together? BEN: You mean are we a couple? LUKE: Yeah…I mean friends with benefits is cool and all, but I’d like to try and make this serious. BEN: Look Luke, of course we are a couple! Luke takes a sigh of relief. LUKE: Happy to hear it and make this official. BEN: Did you not think I wanted a relationship? LUKE: You have been very straight forward in wanting sex, but not so much about a relationship. BEN: Sorry I am just a bit of a sleaze. (chuckles) Cut to Gary who is also at the park. As he is walking through the park he sees Luke and Ben together in the distance. This stops Gary in his tracks… -- At the Union Creek Chronicle: SAM: Todd you have to put that article of Trinity’s in the paper! TODD: Sorry Sam but I do not have to do anything. This is my paper! SAM: Don’t you want a hot article for this paper. TODD: We have plenty of hot articles. SAM: I’m honestly surprised that Todd Manning of all people is afraid of a little bit of controversy. TODD: Are you trying to call me soft? SAM: I’m just saying, this isn’t the step dad I know. TODD: What are you getting out of this job thingy with Trinity? SAM: A cool summer job. TODD: I think you like her. SAM: She is really cool. TODD: If I compare your two personalities from your two articles she would probably eat you alive….Sam if I put her article in tomorrow’s edition will you leave and let me work? SAM: Yes. Yes I will! TODD: Then I will put it in. SAM: Thank you! You won’t regret it! Sam exits. Todd turns back to his computer. There is another knock at the door. TODD: I need a god damn personal secretary…. Come in! It is Jack… JACK: Hello again. TODD: Jack Doe…hey… JACK: I came by to see if you have considered hiring me for a job… -- At the supermarket: Reva gets in Blairs face! REVA: I really want you to stop with your pathetic little put downs, Blair. BLAIR: My, my, I hope you don’t have anything to throw on me. REVA: I just want to finish shopping, but you just had to go and piss me off! Blair chuckles and gives Reva a little shove. REVA: Don’t you touch me BLAIR: Then get out of my face with your Kentucky fried chicken breath! REVA: You must just be smelling the bullsh*t coming out of your own mouth. Reva grabs Blair by the shirt. REVA: We need to stop doing this. BLAIR: Then stay the hell away from me! Blair gives Reva another shove! Reva shoves Blair back but hangs onto her necklaces and yanks it breaking it off! BLAIR: Do you know how much that costs?! REVA: I don’t care. I’m sure you will just try and press charge...and fail, again. Reva walks off and Blair is livid! -- At the café: DANI: Fate is strange you know. MALIK: How so? DANI: Well I was just thinking about how the day of the modeling competition it was you and I who ran into each other and had to hype each other up to even do it. Thank you by the way. MALIK: We must have been good help for each other. DANI: Yup because we were the two winners. MALIK: Well I thank fate then. DANI: And I never thought I would even like this job, but it is going to be fun. MALIK: Oh yeah. We’re going to have fun together! -- At the park: BEN: Don’t let me keep you any longer. LUKE: I am really not in a hurry to get to work. BEN: I really shouldn’t be keeping you from working too long though. You have to keep your job. LUKE: I know, I know. I just love hanging out with you. BEN: I do too. Before you head back though… Ben kisses him. Their lip locking goes on for a bit. In the background, Gary is watching them. He smirks as he watches them kissing.. - Sam meets up with Zack. Sam high fives Zack. ZACK: What was that for? SAM: Just felt like it. Sam can’t keep himself from smiling. ZACK: What has you so happy go lucky? Did you get some or what? SAM: No it is my summer job with Trinity. It has started off awesome! She wrote this deep and powerful article and my dad found it controversial but he is still going to print it. ZACK: That is pretty damn cool. SAM: Yeah, she’s amazing. ZACK: Glad one of us is happy. SAM: Why are you so down? ZACK: My summer thing is sucking so far. SAM: You are the one who chose to go to school all summer and help tutor. ZACK: It is not that. It is having to see Anne and Cory sit by each other every time. SAM: Ouch. ZACK: Frustrating! -- At The Union Creek Chronicle: TODD: Do you really want a job here Jack? JACK: I need a job and I use to be in the press so yes. TODD: Then you are hired! JACK: Just like that? TODD: Yup. JACK: That was easy and here I though you would want to do a background check on me, and well, that would be difficult for me to pass! TODD: I normally do background checks but I have a feeling yours would turn up as empty as they come. JACK: Thank you so much. I appreciate this. I cannot wait to start! TODD: I need to get to work right now though. JACK: I’m sure you do. I look forward to working here and will now leave you alone…boss. Jack exits and walks off elated to have a job. TODD: The one time I am trying to actually work on this investigation for Gary and I can’t get any time to myself. He looks at the clock. TODD: What the hell I already got the check from him anyway! Lunch time! -- Reva is now home. The mysterious car is parked a little away from the ranch again. The person inside is watching Reva as she is taking groceries in. Reva comes back to her car and closes the car door. REVA: Wonder if we got any mail. She goes to check her mail box. All of a sudden the mysterious person in the car starts it up and goes speeding right towards Reva!!! FADE TO BLACK Credits roll *I do not own any non original character nor any pics.

Very cool to see Noelle back in Salem. It has been a long time. A cool choice for someone to have brought back as the show has forgotten about Neil and company. I look forward to learning more about Noelle and just who she is now that she is an adult. You did a wonderful job with Marlena. Sounded just like Marlena and was touching dealing with Neils death. Its good to see Tyler again. And looky who Will is reporting too. Hopefully an Alex that is Justins son and not one with an obscure relation to the family! lol. This should really get Sonny in more of a tizzy! Also love all the comments about Wills new appearance still ha Im really loving these Nicole and Nick scene. The back and forth banter is funny and all the trying to one up the either. Nick as usual is one step ahead. Awesome new additions and I am intrigued by how Alex and Noelle will play into the canvas. Good stuff!

I'm digging these quick interconnected scene cuts you did in the last episode and in this one. Joy thinking about Steven but trying to hide her shadiness. Meanwhile Steven telling Vicky about him falling for Joy...Vicky then calling her sister to talk about her concerns about Steven falling for the likes of Joy. Im glad you touched upon the past with Joy again. Im not sure how I feel about this Joy and Steven pairing yet but I do want to see where it goes. Devin confronting Carl is building well. Some history here expounded upon. I wonder what Carl can say to make Devin feel better about the whole situation. Their scenes in the next episode should be really good. A tightly focused episode really focusing heavily on 2 stories. Looking forward to more of this confrontation and definitely looking forward to this big party too.

So Cara wants to give David joint custody. Wonder how this will work out. Seems like a rash decision on her part, but maybe it will bring them some peace apart or even together. I enjoyed the Erica and Kendall scene. Very nice use of flashback. I like that Kendall is trying to reach out and Erica is feeling bad about what went down with her alcohol tainted drink. And oh lord Annie has a bomb. And she mentioned needing to do something to Bianca... This doesnt sound like it will turn out well. Seemed like less was going on in this episode but thats not necessarily a bad thing. I'm glad we got some one on one character interactions. And the calm before the storm perhaps?

Written by: Nick M. Brittany is at Billy’s place. BILLY: You stopped by on your way to work just to see me? BRITTANY: Yeah. It is starting to feel like if we do not see each other every day that the day doesn’t even feel right. BILLY: Now that you mention it, you are right. BRITTANY: I really do need to get to work though. I cant be late. BILLY: Have a good shift. I’ll just be here…doing my usual. Lounging around. BRITTANY: Are you going to go look for a job yet? BILLY: Maybe. See you later. Billy and Brittany embrace in a tight hug before she heads out. Billy then sits down. BILLY: Gotta stop being lazy. His phone rings and he picks it up. BILLY: I’ll be damn. It is his sister Ashley Abbott on the other line! BILLY: Ashley! ASHLEY: Hi Little bro. How are you? BILLY: Doing okay. ASHLEY: Glad to hear it. You like the city you moved to? BILLY: It actually could be paradise. Or so I am hoping.. -- At the women’s shelter: Ali is at the kitchen table eating with some of the other girls. She finishes up and walks over to Charlotte. CHARLOTTE: I gotta say, I sure am proud of you. ALI: For what? CHARLOTTE: You are now mingling with all the girls in here. ALI: That is thanks to you, Charlotte. You made it easy to talk to and started to get me to talk to the others. CHARLOTTE: What ever worked I am glad. You need friends. Miss Cho is proud of you too. She likes to see us girls become friends. She says it goes a long way. ALI: She is a wise woman. -- Meanwhile, Vin is looking as frustrated as ever. VIN: Going to find you Ali! He is online on a tablet. VIN: And I know exactly where they made you go those damn doctors. He is searching women shelters in the nearby area! -- Greg has just arrived home. GREG: Quiet today. Anybody home?! He looks around. GREG: The house to myself. And dad isn’t here. The only time this place is peaceful is when he is out. Greg walks into the kitchen. GREG: I hope we actually have some food. He opens the refrigerator to see nothing but Milk and ketchup. GREG: I guess milk will have to do. He pours himself a glass. He exits the room and sees his mom walking up stairs. GREG: Mom! I didn’t know anyone was home. GREGS MOM: Hi son. I didn’t know you were here either. She walks upstairs quickly like she is avoiding him. GREG: Was it something I said… -- Paul arrives home and Emily is there. EMILY: Home so early? PAUL: Taking a little break. EMILY: How is it going? Eliza is still messing things up I assume… PAUL: Why are you worried about Eliza? EMILY: You said she has been having a hard time getting the hang of being a secretary… PAUL: Yeah she is. EMILY: Sorry, I was just asking Paul. PAUL: I don’t know why you are faking interest in BRO today. EMILY: What are you talking about? PAUL: The company has been opened for a few days now…and do you know how many times you have come to support the company? Oh that’s right, zero! EMILY: I didn’t know you needed hands on support like that. PAUL: Oh, please Emily! We had a whole discussion and you stated how you were going to be supportive. I found it weird that you changed your tune so quickly, but now I see you were just lying through your teeth. EMILY: I didn’t— PAUL: --Save it! I do not want to hear excuses. Emily steps back as Paul’s agitation grows. -- Cut to Bo chained up He is looking at a plate of food that was brought in. He has to move the plate closer to him using his leg. BO: This is becoming too much. He then can barely reach the food with his hand. He stretches as much as he can and grabs a bread roll. He takes a bite of it and it is rather hard. BO: I must get out of here somehow. (shouts towards the door) I will get out of here! You hear me! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixD5hehtOSE&feature=youtu.be Billy is still on the phone with his sister, Ashley. ASHLEY: You don’t know what career to choose there? BILLY: Not really. There is this fashion company restarting that I thought about applying at, but I haven’t yet. ASHLEY: I think you should. BILLY: I know I should, but the question is will I? ASHLEY: You will run out of money eventually. What are you going to do then, come asking us siblings for cash? BILLY: You guys could spare some, so maybe. ASHLEY: Funny. BILLY: So how is everything with you? ASHLEY: I have a few problems going on. BILLY: Problems, what is wrong sis? ASHLEY: Nothing I want to get into right now. BILLY: Are you sure? You know you can tell me.. ASHLEY: I just have to figure a few things out… Billy looks on a bit worried… -- At the womens shelter: Ali is with Charlotte and Jacy. CHARLOTTE: How did you break up with your boyfriend? JACY: He isn’t just a boyfriend. He is my husband. ALI: Oh wow. JACY: Yeah. It was a hard escape. I planned coming here from the start because I knew he would come lookin’ fo me. Sho nuff, my brother said he has gone crazy blowing up peoples phones. CHARLOTTE: When do you plan on going back into town? JACY: I hope I have the courage to go back to Paradise soon. I know he will be livid for a long time. Before I ran out of the house and told him I was through with him I also threw my wedding ring right at his face. It was off the chain! Felt great. Cracked me up all the way on my drive here. ALI: Wow that is awesome! I just ran away from my problems as quietly as possible... JACY: Don’t think like that, girl. CHARLOTTE: You got away. That is all that matters. -- Greg goes upstairs. He sees his moms bedroom door cracked open. GREG: Can I come in? GREGS MOM: I just want to rest. GREG: What is wrong? GREGS MOM: Nothing is wrong. GREG: Something is mom. I can tell. He goes into her room. His mom is sitting on her bed…with a black eye. GREG: Son of a b*tch! GREGS MOM: Dammit, Greg I didn’t want you to get all riled up. GREG: All riled up! That bastard father of mine hit you again didn’t he? Gregs mom sits there holding back tears. She shakes her head, yes. GREG: Someone needs to teach him a lesson. GREGS MOM: I am okay. GREG: Mom, this is not okay! -- Cut to Paul and Emily. EMILY: Is this going to be another pity party all about you, Paul? PAUL: How dare you! What kind of wife are you? EMILY: What kind of husband are you? You have become so bad at taking care of your family. I don’t know how it happened, but you have regressed as a person. PAUL: No I am just not selfish like you, dear. EMILY: Don’t even dear me! PAUL: I should have just stayed at work, but then I would never see you. EMILY: That would be best. I mean you come in here and call me selfish while at the same time you are crying with this woe is me act. PAUL: You— EMILY:--No. Let me speak. You say I do not support you, but you support me with nothing. Nothing, Paul. PAUL: That is not even true. EMILY: It is. I do the housework alone. I had to try and keep this family together while you fell into your broke slump. Not mention we haven’t had sex in months! Where is the support there? PAUL: Now the low blows? EMILY: What blows? There is no blowing going on in this house! Just giving you a taste of your medicine, and with some facts... -- The masked person sets down some water for Bo. PERSON: You will want to drink up. Don’t go getting dehydrated. BO: Oh shut up. The masked person leaves the basement. He unmasks. It is Bart BART: The Bradys are so ungrateful. I am just trying to keep you nourished Bo. Sheesh! Bart makes his way up the stairs and out of the secret passageway. He takes out a phone and calls Stefano. STEFANO: Bart, now what? BART: Hello to you too Boss. STEFANO: Is something wrong? BART: No everything is very right. STEFANO: Excellent. I don’t know how you have stayed as one of my henchmen over the years, but just keep up the good work right now. I will be in touch shortly. BART: Talk to you soon. STEFANO: Maybe even see me soon. BART: Wait, you are coming here? Bart is surprised -- “Bad Company” by Five finger death punch starts to play https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAl9kZCwOPE [:00] Greg and his mom are sitting together. GREGS MOM: Your dad just loses his mind sometimes. She touches her black eye. GREG: Not an excuse at all. GREGS MOM: I do know that. GREG: I wish I could tear him apart! GREGS MOM: Don’t say that. Then you will be just like him. GREG: He deserves some of his own medicine. GREGS MOM: Please don’t get involved. Greg is clenching his fist. GREGS MOM: Please do not do something stupid and go after your father. GREG: I want to. I really do. GREGS MOM: Don’t. Greg sighs. He and his mother hug each other. [:27] The frustrated Vin has been going through women’s shelter numbers online. VIN: Just one more to check. Ali better be at this one. He calls… One of the girls answers. GIRL: Hello.. VIN: (deepens his voice) Hi…this is Ali Pritchard’s father. I have an emergency and need to speak with her. GIRL: Okay…I’ll get her. The girl interrupts Ali, Jacy and Charlotte. GIRL: Hey Ali, the phone is for you. ALI: It is? GIRL: Yeah, it is your father. ALI: My dad? I didn’t know he knew I was here... Ali grabs the phone and walks out of the room. ALI: Hi dad… VIN: Hi baby… Ali’s face turns to horror when she realizes it is Vin on the phone. VIN: Don’t hang up. ALI: I…should…not be talking to you. VIN: Please baby. We need to talk! ALI: What do you have to say? VIN: I just want to apologize. I just want to see you. Would you come and see me, baby? Ali stands there nervously… -- [1:13] Cut to Emily and Paul in their stand off PAUL: I’m going back to work! This was a mistake. EMILY: You are the one who came here looking to start a fight. PAUL: I just wanted some answers. EMILY: I would like some answers myself, why have you become all about you? PAUL: I guess you finally rubbed off on me….zing. Paul is about to leave. EMILY: You know Paul, I am about to just give up on you completely! PAUL: Give up huh? That is what you have always done with your life. Why stop now? Paul exits and slams the door behind him. Emily lets out a yell in frustration. She looks like she is about to cry. EMILY: I should just leave him. [1:44] Bart is still on the phone with Stefano. BART: Before you get here what should I do? STEFANO: Just hang tight and prepare for my arrival. BART: I am prepared boss. STEFANO: Someone else will be joining us. BART: Who? STEFANO: Someone who has become a great help keeping me out of the hands of American authorities. Stefano cackles [2:00] Back downstairs, Bo is drinking some of the water. BO: I hope he keeps bringing this to me so I have some energy. He continues to pull at the chains. His wrists are bruised and cut up. BO: If the ISA isn’t going to find me. I have to rely on myself to get free. He yanks the chains again. One of them does seem to be loosening from the wall a bit. BO: Have to keep at this every day. Zoom in on the chain starting to loosen in the wall… [2:20] Credits roll I do not own any non original characters nor any pic.*

The intensity continues as the hits just keep on coming! A lot going on so lets see: Enjoyed the first scene with Dru and all of her Dru like elation. That pic of Avery is gold LOL. Who else went down with the cabin? Damn. Glad Neil finally made it to the hospital. Loved all the exchanges with Lily, Devon, Leslie and sister Patterson. Still waiting for the day Leslie goes at sister Patterson. The tension keeps building between those two. I feel for Olivia. I hope she did wipe her nose those. Lauren and Scotty catching up. Scotty not knowing if he wants some P or some D, but he'll take either. I like it. Wonder where Scotty goes from here. Glad to see Hillary has a conscience. I don't feel for her in the least tho. Maybe she will grow from this whole event. By god Cane sold the kids for drugs! wow. The revelations keep turning for this family one after another! Leading to the end with Dru! Freakin love it!!!! Awesome cliffhanger and already the start of some amazing aftermath. The hits really do keep coming.

Holden and Lily are together at a bar. Holden takes a swig of beer while Lily messes with the straw to her drink. HOLDEN: Is your drink okay? LILY: Yeah it is good. HOLDEN: Then what is wrong? Hard first day of work? LILY: It wasn’t bad, actually. Stressful, of course, but I think it was a success for Marah and I. HOLDEN: Do you know how soon production will be? LILY: Probably in a couple of weeks. HOLDEN: That long? LILY: Going to take some time at the start. Lily takes a sip of her drinks. LILY: So tell me about that government offer? Did you go to the interview? HOLDEN: I did and it went good, but it was a surprise. LILY: What is it all about? HOLDEN: They want me to help come up with and manage funds for the city. The surprising part is, the mayor handpicked me. LILY: I didn’t know that you knew the mayor. HOLDEN: That’s the thing, I don’t know him. Blair plops down at the bar next to them. BLAIR: Well if it isn’t my neighbors. She smiles at Holden and Lily -- Sam and Trinity are together at Sam’s house. They are working on their laptops on their first articles for the newspaper. TRINITY: How is yours coming? SAM: I am practically done! TRINITY: You did something on sports? SAM: Yeah, I figured I live in Colorado now, why not do something blasting the Denver Broncos? TRINITY: That’s cool... SAM: It is about how their star is falling and time may have ran out for a run. I guess it is a bit of a fluff piece, but it’s fun. We should read them to each other. TRINITY: I don’t think you want to hear mine. SAM: of course I do. Go ahead. She looks down at her computer. She seems uneasy. -- Jack is eating dinner with Reva and Josh JACK: You do not have to keep preparing me food like this. JOSH: We both like to cook. REVA: Speak for yourself! JOSH: Okay. I like to cook. JACK: I’m here just taking up space and taking up your food. Not feeling good for anything right now. REVA: It is alright, really. JOSH: As long as you think…or at least lie that the food is good, we are happy to cook for you. JACK: It is really good. JOSH: I hope that wasn’t a lie. JACK: Not a lie. It really is. -- Morris and Eartha are at the hospital. EARTHA: You okay today? I hope you didn’t come here hungover. MORRIS: I am fine Eartha. Don’t I hear you yap enough at home? EARTHA: No you are the one who yaps and yaps. MORRIS: I have no patients right now. I’ll be eating if you need me. He walks to the cafeteria and sits down. He sighs and then has a flashback: A young Morris is in med school. He is walking through the halls and runs into a young Eartha. YOUNG MORRIS: Sorry. I didn’t mean to get in your way. YOUNG EARTHA: You are not. I am just lost. YOUNG MORRIS: I could be your guide. YOUNG EARTHA: Be still my heart! Someone actually not in a hurry around here to help? YOUNG MORRIS: I can’t still your heart as I am not trying to be a heart surgeon (chuckles) But I will help you with whatever you need. YOUNG EARTHA: Well thank you so much. YOUNG MORRIS: This way. He points towards a hallway and she starts walking ahead of him. Young Morris surely likes what he sees in front of him. BACK IN THE PRESENT: MORRIS: I wonder if we should have even ever met… He looks on lost in thought https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTGQmywSIgk&feature=youtu.be At the bar: BLAIR: Sorry didn’t mean to interrupt your conversation with each other. HOLDEN: It is okay. LILY: I would like to know how and why the mayor handpicked you… HOLDEN: I would too. I guess I will have to ask him when I meet him. LILY: That is strange Holden. This whole job offer is just weird… HOLDEN: I don’t want to worry about it right now. Lily looks at Blair. LILY: Sorry, you don’t have to go quiet. BLAIR: I should probably introduce myself. We have been neighbors for awhile now. I am Blair Manning. LILY: Nice to meet you. We are the Snyders. HOLDEN: Holden and Lily. BLAIR: I would like to apologize on behalf of my family when we first moved in. I know we made a scene and the wrong first impression. LILY: I would say we didn’t notice, but I would be lying. BLAIR: Let me buy you both a drink and make a better impression! -- Cut to Sam and Trinity SAM: There I read my article. Your turn… TRINITY: Are you sure you want to hear it? SAM: Yes, why wouldn’t I? TRINITY: I don’t want it to be awkward…The title is “Do you want your country like you want your coffee?” SAM: I don’t get it… TRINITY: Fine, I’ll read it to you since many will read it when your dad publishes it. She takes a deep breath. TRINITY: (Reading) The United States of America. If the states are so united then why aren’t the people? I do not speak of politics. I speak of people as people. This country loves a variety. They want it all. Why not just respect and enjoy a variety of people? Everyone wants a new flavor of ice cream. Even more so they want a new kind of Frappuccino. Sometimes I wonder if the white people in this country want the country like they want their coffee. Anything but black. As a young black American girl, it is scary seeing what goes on. Even in 2015, citizens and even cops still seem to treat us like second class citizens. Crimes that white citizens would get a slap on the wrist for, we seem to get the penalty of getting killed by police. More times than not it is a black man that this happens to. However, just this past week a black woman, Sandra Bland, died after being in a routine traffic stop. That is right, A black woman had to die in jail for a traffic stop. It was ruled a suicide, but why would a woman who just moved to a new place for a new job and about to get out on bond hang herself with a trash bag? Video showed that she did not get physical with the officers, like police stated. They had slammed her head hard into the ground for nothing. Was it really a suicide? Feel that doubt inside of you right now as you read that question? That is the scary part. That is the doubt and fear we young black Americans have to grow up with. What is this country truly doing to make us not feel this way? You can put your political correctness on it, but that doesn’t help. Shocking right? Once called colored, or African Americans, we are black. We belong too. Sam is taken aback by all of this... TRINITY: …say something, please. SAM: Wow. That was powerful. -- At the Lewis Ranch: Jack, Reva and Josh are finishing up dinner. JACK: I do want you both to know that I am hoping to get a job. REVA: That is great! Where at? JACK: The local news. When I was rushed to the hospital thanks to you guys, they found a torn up press pass in my jeans. JOSH: That’s right, they did. REVA: Do you think you will get the job? JACK: I let them do a story on me. That is good enough right? JOSH: The owner of the paper, is well, uh… REVA: A dumbass for marrying the woman he married. JACK: I sense bad blood. JOSH: Can you tell? JACK: Hopefully he will at least give me the job out of pity. REVA: If you do get it, watch out for his crazy wife, Blair. -- Meanwhile at the hospital cafeteria, Morris is still flashing back: A young Morris and Eartha are sitting together on a couch. “If I ever fall in love” by Shai is playing in the back ground https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbJ-eEgrf1c YOUNG EARTHA: You are a perfect tutor. You have been able to show me so much. If you were not trying to become a doctor I would say you should become a teacher. YOUNG MORRIS: Thank you. Happy to help, but yeah the money is not in teaching. YOUNG EARTHA: This may sound over dramatic, but getting to know you these last few months has changed my life. YOUNG MORRIS: I’ve felt it too. YOUNG EARTHA: You’ve convinced me to try and become the best doctor I can be. I just feel like a better person altogether. YOUNG MORRIS: I don’t know if you should go that far. YOUNG EARTHA: No, really. She places her hand on his leg. YOUNG EARTHA: This all feels so right to me. YOUNG MORRIS: We must be on the same wave length then. She shuts her book and puts it on the floor. The two look into each other’s eyes… YOUNG MORRIS: What about your boyfriend back home? YOUNG EARTHA: I broke up with Elijah. I had to. I am falling for you. YOUNG MORRIS: Let’s fall. The two embrace and start to kiss and make out… THE SONG STOPS. BACK IN THE PRESENT: Eartha has interrupted his thoughts. EARTHA: You alright? MORRIS: Yeah… EARTHA: You are needed in room 10 MORRIS: Be right there. Eartha walks off and Morris watches her do so… -- Back at the bar, Blair has bought herself, Holden and Lily some shots! BLAIR: On the count of three this tequila goes down. HOLDEN: One…two…three! The three take the shots. LILY: I think that is enough celebrating for me! BLAIR: Don’t stop now. LILY: I am a lightweight. BLAIR: I haven’t had this much fun since…well since I owned my own nightclub. I feel like I made some new friends tonight. LILY: Us too. HOLDEN: We should get going. Lily has another big day tomorrow. BLAIR: Oh yeah you have a new fashion company…With the Reva hounds daughter right? LILY: ...Yeah, Marah. HOLDEN: They are good people. Blair gives them a doubtful look. LILY: Maybe I can be a bridge between you and Reva. Blair busts out laughing. BLAIR: Don’t waste your time, honey. (to the bartender) Ill take one more shot for the road. HOLDEN: Be careful getting home. BLAIR: You guys too. Blair takes her shot and follows them out. -- Back to Sam and Trinity… They both seem to be quiet. TRINITY: I’d like to think that you are not uncomfortable after I read that. I just left everything I felt on the page. SAM: I’m a little bit uncomfortable. TRINITY: Why? You shouldn’t be? SAM: I am a white person in America, you know. TRINITY: I don’t feel like you are some racist for the record. SAM: I would hope not. It’s just. People don’t like to talk about these things with each other. Especially us teenagers. I'm not use to it. TRINITY: Is your dad going to be okay with this article. It is hella intense for a teen write up. SAM: My dad better be okay with it. It was great. TRINITY: Thank you Sam. SAM: You blew me away…high five! The teens high 5. -- At the Lewis ranch Jack is doing dishes. JACK: This is the least I can do…and the best part is, I remember how to do it! REVA: You really don’t have to do the dishes every night. JACK: It’s just soap and water. REVA: We should probably get a dishwasher but we are still country folk at heart. JOSH: Are you heading back to the chronicle tomorrow to try and get that job? JACK: I probably should. Truth is I feel uneasy about leaving the house and going out there into the world. REVA: It is hard, isn’t it? Not knowing who you are. JACK: You say that like you have experience. REVA: That is a different story for a different time. JACK: It is not even that though. I just still can’t help but feel like I am being watched. JOSH: Has be hard feeling that way. Jack, Josh and Reva start to put the dishes away. Meanwhile, someone does turn out to be outside again! The person is watching the house… FADE TO BLACK Credits roll *I do not own any non original characters nor any pics Written by: Nick M Consultant: T.W.

Well I loved several things even besides the actual story. Your descriptions as always are spectacular! And you probably get sick of me saying this but it really does remind me so much of Marlands ATWT. Everyone is always actually working and and everything flows from episode to episode hitting beats. Im glad Laura and Jennifer had that mother-daughter talk. If only Jenn could do the same with Abby soon. Nick and Nicoles scene was superb. You captured both character perfectly. I could see all of that scene in my head and I like them both on this show so thats always a good thing. Loveee what you have done with Sami and EJ. Perhaps if the show would have actually touched on these issues I wouldnt have hated EJami as much as I did. You are actually dealing with the rape and it has been a highlight of the entire show for me. Laughed at Sonny reaction to Will being a new man. I also liked how he was being a happy jerk wanting to prove Sonny wrong. Like Ejami you have shot this couple in the arm too. I think the best thing of it all is these people feel like real characters in character driven stories. Really like the way these stories are going!

You are doing some great work. Amanda and Iris had a great exchange. You are writing the hell out of these business aspects. Im still torn on if Iris should do this and veddy interestin that Devin is in some kind of cahoots with Iris. Hmmm I loved everything with Felicia. All the almost drinking. The phone call from Lorna. Sooo soapy, but Felicia did drink at the end. What will Christys next step be? Lorna has come back pregnant. Who the daddy I liked the history with Frankie and Carl. And at the end Devin comes to see his father Carl. All these stories are flowing perfect! Great characters driving great stories. Doesnt get any better.

Good work on continuing the Asher and Caleb father/son dynamic. Asher doing his best to reach out to his dad. Wonder how this will work out. I really like the idea of Erica staying at Kendells. And even better are some stories intermingling which is always a good thing! Sucks for Marisa that Bianca couldnt make it back. Looks like work is going to cause a rift between them. Realistic. Short Cara and David scenes but I look forward to the convo they are about to have. Good episode. Nice to see Kendell and Erica scenes. Hope more stories intermingle.

Vin is outside of Psychiatrist Jerri's office. He looks inside at the secretary. VIN: I’ll just wait here. This is the one Ali was talking to. The one who probably turned her against me. He looks back in and glares. Vin sees a patient leaving and he charges inside. SECRETARY: Excuse me you cannot go back there! Vin pushes past her and does. JERRI: Excuse me? VIN: You and I need to talk. JERRI: Who are you? VIN: The boyfriend of one of your patients. I want to know where the hell Ali is! Where is she?! Jerri is caught off guard as Vin glares on at her. -- AT BRO: Eliza hangs up the phone and takes a deep breath. ELIZA: I really need to get the hang of this job. Paul approaches her. PAUL: Yes. Yes you do. ELIZA: Oh no! Did I mess something up? She drops her face into her hands. ELIZA: I don’t even want to know. PAUL: You need to know so that you learn from your mistakes! ELIZA: Okay, okay. What did I do? PAUL: You filed some papers in the wrong folders. A big no no for the papers I need to find. He hands her two folders. PAUL: Two different material suppliers. Open them both up and see that you mismatched them. What do you think would happen if we send one company the check for another company! ELIZA: I am sorry dad. Really. I just need to get used to all this. PAUL: I hope you do soon. This should not be happening. -- JJ and Miranda are the two left alone after the music class again. JJ: Just you and I here again. We must be the die hards. MIRANDA: I guess we are. JJ: We have a lot in common you know. MIRANDA: I don’t know about that. Miranda starts to quickly put her books in her backpack. JJ: I enjoyed our jam session last time. MIRANDA: Cool. JJ: Did you? MIRANDA: Yeah but I should get going. She stands up. JJ: Why are you in such a hurry? MIRANDA: Oh you know. Everyone is always in a hurry…with nowhere to go. JJ: I think you should stay here with me after class again. I want you to. They look on at each other. -- Someone is at the Johnson family home. Steve opens the door. It is Roman…and Hope Brady. STEVE: Hope, You made it! HOPE: Roman said it was urgent. What is going on? STEVE: Please come in. Roman and Hope enter. ROMAN: Hope, you should probably take a seat. HOPE: I don’t like this. Hope raises her eyebrow. Kayla walks in. HOPE: Hi Kay. Kayla and Hope hug. HOPE: Please tell me what is up… Just then Carly walks in the room. Hope sees her and a scowl comes over her face. HOPE: What is SHE doing here? What is going on… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnwwnaIcRSU Cut to Vin and Jerri. VIN: Are you going to tell me where my girlfriend is? JERRI: Why should I know? VIN: She is a patient of yours isn’t she? JERRI: I do not keep tabs on my patients, sorry young man. VIN: Well I at least want to know what you talked to her about. JERRI: You know that is confidential. VIN: Dammit, you turned her against me didn’t you!? JERRI: You need to leave. VIN: No! Not until you tell me why she has disappeared. JERRI: I have patients to see. Vin is getting increasingly more angry. JERRI: perhaps you could talk to me about this anger of yours some time. VIN: Did Ali tell you I was angry? JERRI: No I can just see it right this instance. Please leave or I will have my secretary call hospital security if she hasn’t already. VIN: Fine! But I will find her! He leaves -- AT THE WOMENS SHELTER HOUSE: Ali is sitting with another girl, Charlotte. CHARLOTTE: Miss Cho is going to be happy to see you coming out of your shell. ALI: I have forgotten how to be…friends with others. CHARLOTTE: Your boyfriend doesn’t let you have friends does he? ALI: He doesn’t say it, but he is always angry when I am with any. Even though they are all girls. CHARLOTTE: Some guys just have measly little egos like that. ALI: He just wants to control all of me, I guess. I’ve been stupid and lost myself in him. CHARLOTTE: You are young. I am sure he took advantage. Some of us are a little older than that and still making those mistakes. Another girl, Jacy, sits by them. ALI: You are here now though and trying to learn. Did your ex have a broken ego? CHARLOTTE: My ex had a broken everything. He is just a creep. Idolized criminals and serial killers. I really think he wants to be like them. JACY: That is just creepy, girl. CHARLOTTE: It has been a nightmare. You don’t even know. ALI: I can’t believe we all have it so bad. What is wrong with us? JACY: No girl, what is wrong with them?! -- At the college: Miranda continues to be uncomfy alone with JJ. JJ: What is wrong? MIRANDA: Nothing, I should just get home. JJ: No something is bothering you. What is it? MIRANDA: Okay I feel awkward with you… JJ’s heart drops. JJ: Why? MIRANDA: That whole strip poker incident…you don’t think its awkward I walked in on you two? JJ: I can see why you feel uncomfortable, but that was nothing. Truthfully. MIRANDA: You keep saying that, but it sure didn’t look that way. It looked like something more was going on between you two. JJ is becoming frustrated. -- At The Johnson house: CARLY: No need to get rude with me Hope. HOPE: I am not getting rude. KAYLA: Come on you two. This is not the time and my home is not the place! HOPE: You are right, Kayla. I am sorry. Hope and Carly however share nasty looks at each other. HOPE: What is this though? Bo’s ex wives club? Should I call Billie Reed on over? CARLY: You are being ridiculous! ROMAN: Hope, please listen. HOPE: I do not like that Carly is here. ...and before me? If this has something to do with Bo I should have been notified first. CARLY: Aren’t you off in another relationship at the present? HOPE: None of your business. KAYLA: Please stop arguing! Steve takes out his harmonic and blows it as loud as possible! STEVE: Hope, Listen, this is about Bo and it is bad news. HOPE: Oh god… STEVE: He has been missing, for...awhile…his car was found burned up yesterday. HOPE: What?! Why are you just telling me this now, Steve?! STEVE: The ISA was hoping for better news. HOPE: This is unbelievable… -- IN ENGLAND: Stefano is still at Greta’s house. STEFANO: Are you okay? I am starting to think I am a bother. GRETA: This is still new to me to find out you are my father…I haven’t had a chance to myself to process it. STEFANO: Sorry you feel that way. GRETA: How long will you be staying with me? STEFANO: So you are already trying to get rid of your old man? GRETA: Please don’t try and make me feel bad. This has been difficult. STEFANO: I wont be here much longer. Stefanos phone ring. STEFANO: Excuse me. Stefano walks to the guest room. Greta decides to go by his room as well and listen in on his phone call… -- At the womens shelter: JACY: Charlotte, I want to hear more about your crazed ex if its not too hard for you to talk about. CHARLOTTE: Why tell you when I can just show you. Charlotte lifts up the back of her shirt to show many scars on her back from cuts. ALI: Wow. What was he doing to you? CHARLOTTE: He would slice me with a knife every time I did something he didn’t like. The things he didn’t like me doing seemed to start happening more and more. ALI: Sounds horrible. CHARLOTTE: It was. JACY: He was white huh? Alis was Mexican and mine black. Bad enough they give old fashion beatings. White guys gotta take that sh*t to a whole new level! CHARLOTTE: He sure took it to a new level. ALI: Why are there so many psycho guys? JACY: No idea. ALI: And why do we love them? I still feel like I love Vin and I shouldn’t. CHARLOTTE: We just got attached but we have to look within ourselves eventually and see that we have to come to places like this for awhile…and hopefully become strong again. JACY: Amen. Ali looks on taking her surroundings in… -- AT BRO: Paul comes out of his office. He approaches Eliza. PAUL: Shouldn’t my 4 O clock meeting be here by now? ELIZA: You have a meeting right now? Pauls eyes widen as he starts to realize Eliza may have made another mistake. PAUL: I was supposed to have a meeting at 4. I told you to schedule it. She nervously starts to look through her calendar book. ELIZA: Oh no… PAUL: What did you do now, Eliza?! ELIZA: I’m sorry dad…I double scheduled your meetings at 5. PAUL: How did you do that?! ELIZA: I don’t know. PAUL: This is getting frustrating. I hope Barbara can make one of the meetings. Buzz her office and find out. ELIZA: Yes sir. Paul puts his hand on his temple and rubs it. -- Cut to JJ and Miranda. JJ: I tend to make stupid choices. It is what I do. MIRANDA: I am not judging you on the strip poker. JJ: I am starting to feel like it was a huge mistake. MIRANDA: I just think we don’t understand each other. That is why I should just go. I do not feel like jamming this time. Sorry. JJ: It is okay. I understand. Miranda leaves. JJ: I don’t even know what I am doing anymore. He bitterly starts to stuff his books in his backpack. -- IN ENGLAND: Greta is listening in on Stefanos phonecall. STEFANO: I just need to know you have this under control…you always make slip ups….well just make sure everything is calm….dont worry about Steve. GRETA: (Thinks to herself) Why is he talking about Steve? STEFANO: Please just keep everything on track….Just do not be a fool! -- At the Johnson house: HOPE: You knew about this too Roman? ROMAN: I knew my brother had gone missing, yes. I have been trying to help the ISA get to the bottom of it. KAYLA: Nobody told me either. Some family... STEVE: We were trying our best to find him, first. CARLY: I just don’t want to think the worst. STEVE: None of us do. Just then there is a knock on the door. Hope sits down in shock. Steve opens the door and it is Jesse. KAYLA: Jesse, hey… JESSE: Hello sorry to interrupt. STEVE: Is something wrong? JESSE: I am afraid so. KAYLA: What now? JESSE: I am sorry but scorched remains were found inside the car. HOPE: No... ROMAN: Are they Bos? JESSE: They are unidentifiable…but we have reason to believe they are his. CARLY: This cannot be happening. HOPE: No. Hope is fighting back tears. HOPE: I know what you are all thinking but it is not true. Bo isn’t dead. Hope tries to stop herself from breaking down and Roman holds her. HOPE: He isn’t. Hope breaks down in Romans arms. -- Cut to someone who is inside of the now abandoned house that Steve, Terrance and Jesse checked out. The person puts a book in a spot on the empty bookshelf. A secret passage way opens up as the Book Shelf turns open! This leads downstairs to another room. The person unlocks a door at the bottom of the stairs and sets down a tray of food... Bo Brady is inside of the room chained up to the wall! The person handing Bo the food is in a mask. BO: Instead of bringing me inedible food, bring me Stefano so that son of a b*tch can let me out of here! The masked person exits the room and closes the door. BO: I have to get out of here. He pulls at the chains to no avail. FADE TO BLACK Credits roll. *I DO NOT OWN ANY NON ORIGINA CHARACTERS NOR ANY PICS

At the police station: Elijah is walking down a hall COP#1: Hey how was your fourth? ELIJAH: It was good. Went to a good barbecue. Elijah walks into his office and closes the door. ELIJAH: A great barbecue…with Eartha. He sits down and has a flashback: A young Elijah is at his high school. He approaches a Young Eartha at her locker. YOUNG ELIJAH: Are you ready for prom tonight? YOUNG EARTHA: I am. What time will you be picking me up? YOUNG ELIJAH: Around six. Elijah starts to put on a do-rag. YOUNG EARTHA: I hope you will not be wearing that tonight.

He is talking to a secretary. SECRETARY: What is your name sir? HOLDEN: Holden Snyder, I am here about a government job offer I received in the mail. The secretary does some clicking at her computer and seems surprised. SECRETARY: Ah yes, you are scheduled for an appointment. HOLDEN: Would you happen to have any idea about what this is about? SECRETARY: I am sorry sir, but I do not. Take a seat and you will find out shortly. HOLDEN: Hm. He takes a seat. -- Luke is at his place taking a drink of water. There is a knock at his door. It is Ben. LUKE: Ben…good to see you again. BEN: Even better to see you. LUKE: What brings you by? BEN: Well, to be honest I remembered what time your lunch breaks are and decided to give it a shot and see if you were home. LUKE: Great timing, just got here.

JACK: I am looking for the guy in charge. Todd Manning. GARY: He is not fully in charge and he is also out at the moment. Sorry. JACK: Crap. Do you know when he will be back? GARY: I am not sure. He likes to disappear. What is your name and how can I help you? JACK: I am just a man, here for a job! He shoots Gary a smile https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x75BmwP7bhg Elijah continues to have flashbacks from High school: The teenage Elijah and Eartha are walking out of their prom dance.

HOLDEN: It was out of the blue. COUNCILMAN: I'm sure it was unexpected but we were told you were the right man for the job. HOLDEN: May I ask what kind of job this is? COUNCILMAN: It is a public funding job. HOLDEN: …And what exactly is that? COUNCILMAN: We are looking for a small group of businessmen to take on the task of finding new ways to come up with and manage money for this town to get new places and events. We are hoping to really get this place moving. HOLDEN: It actually sounds fun. COUNCILMAN: I think so too. HOLDEN: But can I ask…why me? -- Cut to Ben and Luke. They are sitting together on the couch. BEN: I sense your nerves kicking up already. LUKE: Yeah, sorry.. BEN: Why do you get so nervous around me? LUKE: I have not felt this way for a long time. BEN: Felt…which way? LUKE: Like I am so into you…and you are so into me…and we should just be leaping on each other. BEN: Crazy, because I feel the exact same way and you know this. LUKE: Oh I sure felt that the other day. BEN: But why do you fight it? LUKE: I…I’m afraid of this feeling. I do not know how to act. BEN: I say you should act like you are going to give in. I think you will with all this attention showering I have been giving you. LUKE: Been a crazy good feeling… Ben suddenly kisses Luke while holding Lukes face in his hands tightly -- At the Chronicle: Jack and Gary are still talking. GARY: You still have not told me who you are. JACK: Can’t you see…I am a friend of Todds and I want a job interview. GARY: Odd that you won’t tell me your name…but want an interview… JACK: More like…Odd that you want to know my name so bad… GARY: I don’t think that is odd at all! When you meet someone new it is customary actually. JACK: Actually…I think I should just go. Tell Todd that a…J…was here. GARY: Jay? J-A-Y? JACK: Nope, just the letter J! I have somewhere else I should go. Please just let him know. GARY: Sure. Jack exits in a hurry GARY: What a basket case. -- Holden is still with the councilman. COUNCILMAN: I really hope you will consider this offer. The salary is good and not to mention you were handpicked by the mayor for this position. HOLDEN: I was what?! COUNCILMAN: Handpicked by the mayor. HOLDEN: I don’t even know the mayor. COUNCILMAN: That’s surprising to hear. Mayor Woods must be fond of you to hand pick you. HOLDEN: I don’t know what to say. COUNCILMAN: Just say you’ll accept. HOLDEN: I’ll get back to you. Thank you very much. They shake hands and Holden exits. HOLDEN: What is going on? -- At chic spirit: LILY: Dani come with me.

She then also takes off her pants and sits on Maliks lap. MALIK: Woah boss! What are you doing? MARAH: Giving you a raise… She starts to kiss along his neck. He is liking it. He gives in and kisses her. He lifts her up and sets her on her desk! He takes off his shirt. MARAH SNAPS OUT OF HER DAYDREAM FANTASY MALIK: Are you okay, Marah? MARAH: Oh yes…sorry. Just working something out in my head. MALIK: What something special did you have for me? MARAH: Well, our first big photo shoot will be exclusively you in the photos! We are starting a mens line right away. MALIK: Wow. I love all this faith you guys have in me (grins) Marah looks on nervously -- At Lukes place: Luke and Ben are making out on Lukes couch. Ben grabs Lukes hand with his own and places it right between Bens legs. LUKE: Okay, okay! You win. BEN: What was that? LUKE: You win! Luke takes off his shirt and Ben takes off his own. The intensity of the moment picks up as their kisses become faster. Ben takes off Lukes pants before taking off his own. BEN: You sure you are ready for me? LUKE: I’m ready. Ben bends Luke over on the side of the couch and stands up behind him… -- Elijah takes out an old picture of himself and Eartha from their high school prom. ELIJAH: I need to just go back to staying away from Eartha. For my own good. There is a knock at the door ELIJAH: Come in! It is Jack. Elijah puts away the picture. JACK: I had to come and see you. I need to know, man. What is up with the investigation into whoever held me captive? ELIJAH: Hey man, unfortunately we do not have any leads. I am really sorry. JACK: What are you doing about that? ...Other than gazing at pictures. ELIJAH: We have looked into all we could. JACK: I had to walk here. I cannot be just going around town all paranoid that whoever was holding me, and I escaped from, is still out looking for me. I guess I will have to keep it up though! ELIJAH: How about I get you an armed guard? JACK: No thanks. I am not that desperate. They both let out sighs -- Todd has arrived back at the union creek chronicle building: TODD: Did I miss anything good while I was at lunch? GARY: Some very nutcase like man came in looking for a job. He said he knew you and his name was the letter J, but that is not important. TODD: …Okay…what is important? GARY: Something you are going to love…. Gary pulls out a check. GARY: The old boss has a proposition for you. TODD: If it involves him giving me lots of money I am all ears. GARY: It does. He wants you to have this check he wrote out on behalf of his company. GARY: There is more where this came from once you track down the document. TODD: Why couldn’t he have just done this from the start?! Instead of asinine contracts? Ask him that. Seriously. GARY: Does this mean you will actually work on this now? TODD: I vow to do whatever it takes to find this ridiculous document. Gary shoots him a look. TODD: Sorry. Meant to say this ridiculously important document! GARY: Excellent. Gary hands him the check… FADE TO BLACK CREDITS ROLL *I do not own any non original character nor any pics.

I actually enjoyed the Rafe and Jordan scenes. They were pretty cute. All this Jordans worrying really makes me want to see Jerome Grant. I hope his arrival is ASAP. I feel bad for Nicole as she tries her best to get through to Eric, but he stays stubborn in his faith. My favorite thing about all of this is how realistic it is. Erics faith in these situations is very real. Getting real on our arses! I am torn on this Billie and Daniel thing. Cuz dirty Dan is annoying, but Im on Billies side so far on this Billie vs Kim thing over Theresa, but I want Dan and Billie to get caught so Dan loses his license. Tough choice. Wonder how it will turn out. The JJ and Laura scenes got intense. Laura is freaking the F out. Wonder what it could be and what Laura is going to do to find out about Abby. That ending got very engrossing in the fear of the characters. Good episodes. I'm very excited about where these stories are going. Hitting all the right notches and bring on the Grants!

Where to beginnnn I liked the feeling throughout the whole episode of what/who will we see next. Not knowing who is alive and who is dead. Nice start with Phillip coming right up. Its hard to believe how many characters are in peril right now. Glad to see Phillip is okay, but now we are concerned about the twins. Sister Patterson and her damn third eye rofl. I'm surprised Lauren didnt kick her in her third eye. Avery coming out blind. Hmm. Meanwhile, Neil still is lying in his death as the paramedics from JER's passions slowly get him to a hospital. At this rate I dont like the poor guys chances! Nice reactions to everyone who saw Nate in his condition. Hillary getting that guilt like she should. Olivia going through a lot of pain right now poor woman. I liked Paul in those scenes. He wasnt in them much but I could picture everything he did and said perfectly. Dru lives! Glad that she won that battle with Sheila. But that ending looking for Sharon. Great way to end it. Loved it as always! Always bringing the excitement. Must see soap.

Really lovin where these stories are going. Great seeing KC again! And she is gonna have a little date with the youngest Stenbeck son. Love it. I really like these two characters so this is gonna be fun. I like how charlie was the soft one with Eric while Kirkland nice and fiery. A joy to see Kirkland and Charlie too. Nice interacting of stories. I dont know how I feel about this merger idea. I think it would be stupid of her to take up on it and she already has the upper hand tho im sure of course she wants her hand in her father company. I just hope she keeps all the power. Then we get Christy coming for Felicia. I liked the voice over before the opening. And a great hilarious line to end the show on! Awesome episode with so many of my faves!!!

Pretty solid episode. Stuart and Marian was the highlight for me. Really sweet scene between the two of them. I really enjoyed being able to feel the closeness between them. What the hell is Adam up to now...with Skye lolol. Intrigued to see where that goes. Caleb and Asher wanting two seperate things. I wonder who will get their way. Me thinks Asher. Still hoping Dixies promise to Tad is true and Opal pull through. She is an entertaining character. And of course I love me some Liza and Erica scenes! Those two are entertaining as always. Good work. Also really cool closing vid

At the strip club: Oddball Jeremy walks in… He goes to the bar The bartender, Bob places a napkin where he is sitting. BOB: What can I get for you? JEREMY: Your best beer on tap. BOB: Coming right up. A stripper is on stage. Bob hands Jeremy his beer. Jeremy takes a sip and then stares a hole through the stripper that is on stage… Meanwhile, Derrick walks to the back room at the club. He seems agitated. He makes a phone call. DERRICK: Hey…what the hell is the problem? Well we need to fix this fast….we cannot be having an issue with the product! Stop with the excuses! -- Lucas is at the grocery store. Jennifer and Daniel are also there. LUCAS: Sis! JENNIFER: Hey Lucas. Doing some 4th of July shopping? LUCAS: A little something. Lucas and Daniel look at each other. DANIEL: Hey there, Lucas. LUCAS: Doctor Dan… Lucas sees Daniel looking at some of the pork ribs Lucas is also looking at. He sees Daniel about to grab for one, but Lucas grabs the pack first. LUCAS: Not gonna steal something from me again Daniel.. DANIEL: oh…kay.. JENNIFER: I am so happy to run into to you. LUCAS: Me too, Jenn Daniel gives them both a dirty look. -- Marcino and Greg are with the burnt up car they found with the “BO4HOPE” license. MARCINO: We need to report this to the police. GREG: Do we really have to call them? MARCINO: I think we should. Something terrible happened here. GREG: Fine, but you are going to be the one that calls. MARCINO: That is fine. Marcino takes out his phone and dials 911. -- Steve and Carly are inside of the Johnson house: STEVE: You came all the way here to ask me about Bo? Do you have something against phones…texts…facebook messages? CARLY: This is too important for all of that. STEVE: What do you think is wrong with Bo? CARLY: I am here to ask you that? Some coworker of yours, Terrance came to see me…he was hiding something. STEVE: Hiding what? CARLY: I am asking the questions here. STEVE: Well excuse me! CARLY: He was asking the questions to me at the time about the last time I talked to Bo. He proclaimed everything was okay but ever since that visit I have felt like something was wrong with Bo…so tell me the truth. What is up? STEVE: Still care about him? CARLY: I will always care about him. STEVE: I’d like to think that he is okay and just out on a job. CARLY: I sense a but coming… STEVE: But I cannot say that for sure.. CARLY: You do not know where Bo is do you? Kayla has arrived home. KAYLA: Carly…hey…is something wrong with Bo? Kayla looks at Steve who looks back at her with sadness in his eyes. -- Cut to a close up of Terrance who is on the phone: He is talking to his father Elijah TERRANCE: I do miss Union Creek a little bit, but I am adjusting to life here. ELIJAH: Happy to hear that son, but I still worry about you there. TERRANCE: You do not have to. I am alright. ELIJAH: I know you cannot disclose much info but how is your assignment going? TERRANCE: Could be a lot better honestly. ELIJAH: Are you sure everything is okay? TERRANCE: I promise, father. ELIJAH: I can’t help but feel responsible for you. TERRANCE: You don’t have to anymore. ELIJAH: I am not talking about just your safety on this assignment. TERRANCE: I know. All is well. I deal with what I have always had to deal with. Dealing with it right now actually. Terrance hears some music in the background. TERRANCE: Go have fun at that barbecue! ELIJAH: Hope you have a fun 4th as well. TERRANCE: I’ll try. Catch you later dad. ELIJAH: Love you. They hang up. Zoom out from where Terrance is sitting to reveal that he is sitting on a hospital bed in a hospital room. An IV is in him…a blood bag is connected to the IV… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnwwnaIcRSU Back at the strip club: Derrick is still on the phone with someone. DERRICK: I do not understand how this even happened! You know today is a holiday. So today of all days it would have been nice for everything to arrive on time! Derrick’s annoyance grows stronger. DERRICK: Figure it out and don’t let it happen again! Derrick hangs up and comes out of the back room angry. Bob spots him walking to the bar. BOB: Everything okay Boss? DERRICK: Yes no worries. Just a liquor problem is all. BOB: Okay. Hope it gets fixed. DERRICK: Me too. Derrick takes a seat. Bob looks at Jeremy at the bar. He has not drank much of his beer. He is staring at a now different stripper who is on stage. Leering rather creepily… -- At the grocery store: JENNIFER: Lucas since we are all here, you should join us and JJ for a little 4th of July dinner. LUCAS: I do not want to interrupt your plans. DANIEL: That’s too bad. Sorry you cant make it. LUCAS: Trying to rush me to say no, Dan? In that case I would love to come! JENNIFER: Meet us at our new house in a few then. LUCAS: Sounds good. DANIEL: Fantastic... -- Angie walks into the hospital room that Terrance is in. All the blood from the blood bag is now gone. TERRANCE: All over doc? ANGIE: Yes. The blood transfusion was a success. TERRANC: My favorite six words. Angie removes the IV. ANGIE: How are you feeling? TERRANCE: Much better, thank you. ANGIE: You are free to go then. TERRANCE: Thank you very much. Terrance exits. Natalia is in the hall walking with her cane. She seems to be struggling. TERRANCE: Are you okay mam? NATALIA: Yeah. I think maybe I didn’t have enough water today. TERRANCE: I could go get you a water bottle real quick.. NATALIA: I do not want to bother you. TERRANCE: You are doing no such thing! -- Jesse, Officer Ramos and other cops are at the scene by the pond with the burnt car. Marcino and Greg are watching from a distance. JESSE: We need to run this license plate. OFFICER RAMOS: I will get on that. Jesse looks around the car. He then looks inside. JESSE: This is horrible. I already know the forensics are going to say that this was lit on fire by someone. Arson. -- At the Johnson house: KAYLA: Steve… tell me what is wrong with Bo? STEVE: Sweetness, listen, I was hoping to have to never deliver this news. KAYLA: What news? Steve holds Kaylas hand. CARLY: One of Steves coworkers, Terrance was in Arizona awhile back asking me about Bo. KAYLA: Terrance? CARLY: I could tell by his questions that— STEVE: --Carly! Let me tell you both exactly what has been going on. It is probably time that you both should know. Bo has…well, Bo is missing. Kayla is in shock. She pulls her hand away from Steve… -- At the strip club: Bob pulls Derrick aside. He points to Jeremy at the bar. BOB: That guy seems creepy, Derrick. He has just been staring at the strippers all night with no distractions whatsoever. DERRICK: My girls are hot here. BOB: Yeah but he gives me an uneasy feeling. DERRICK: Just another pervert here at triple X! Derrick gets distracted as a guy and a girl walk in. DERRICK: You two made it! GIRL: Sorry we are late. GUY: That was my fault. I was…reluctant to come. DERRICK: Well change your mood! He grabs them each by a hand and walks them to the back room. DERRICK: I hope you are both ready for an intense night. He takes off his pants and closes the door. -- Terrance and Natalia are sitting down in a hallway at the hospital. TERRANCE: You were shot?! What happened? NATALIA: It was in the line of duty. I am a cop. TERRANCE: Wow. That is admirable. NATALIA: Why are you being so nice? TERRANCE: I think any decent human being would respect you getting shot in the line of duty and besides, maybe I want to cheer you up. He kisses her hand. NATALIA: We have a charmer here. TERRANCE: Hopefully I can charm you into a quick recovery. NATALIA: Wouldn’t that be crazy awesome. I do hope I recover quickly so I can get right back out there. TERRANCE: I respect your attitude towards this so much. I hope you are back to doing what you want to do in no time. NATALIA: (smiles) Thank you. -- At Jennifers house: Lucas is sitting next to JJ. Jennifer and Daniel pour themselves some wine. DANIEL: Want some Lucas? LUCAS: No. You know this. JJ: The food is great, Daniel. DANIEL: Thank you. LUCAS: So JJ how is college here? JJ: Going well. Kinda. JENNIFER: Just kinda? JJ: School is good. My social life not so much. LUCAS: Girl problems huh? JJ: Yeah, a little. LUCAS: Daniel could help you with that I am sure. He’s an expert after all. JENNIFER: Okay Lucas, that is enough. LUCAS: Sorry I will not bite the hand that feeds me. JJ: It is all in fun. DANIEL: If you’ll excuse me I have to use the restroom. Daniel exits the room and groans. -- Marcino and Greg are now at a fireworks display. They are watching the fireworks together. GREG: I hope whatever happened with that burnt car wasn’t something awful. MARCINO: Me too. Let’s try not to worry about it and get lost in these beautiful fireworks. GREG: They are pretty great fireworks this year. MARCINO: The city is stepping it up. Must have found money from somewhere. As the two watch the fireworks sitting on the ledge of some bleachers, Greg starts to inch his hand closer to Marcinos... Greg is about to touch Marcinos hand, but Marcino moves it away and runs his hand through his hair. Greg decides to move his hand away too… -- Officer Ramos makes his way to Jesses office. JESSE: Did you trace the license plate? OFFICER RAMOS: Indeed. It belonged to a Bo Brady. JESSE: Brady…that name sounds familiar. A light bulb goes off in his head. -- Kayla is shocked and upset KAYLA: Steve how could you keep this from me? Bo is my brother! STEVE: We didn’t want to worry anyone. The ISA has been looking for him. I have been looking for him. I thought we could find him. CARLY: You have not gotten close? STEVE: No. KAYLA: I cannot believe this! Don’t tell me Roman and Shane know about this too. STEVE: We have been trying— KAYLA: --Don’t give me that sh*t Steve! We are all family. I knew something was off with you and Roman, but I didn’t know it was this bad. The phone rings. Carly and Kayla hug as Steve answers the phone. STEVE: Hello Jesse…what? No… Carly and Kayla can tell he has gotten bad news. He hangs up and looks at them both with pain in his eyes. STEVE: the…the cops found Bo’s car. It was burned up. CARLY: This is not good. Kayla sits down and shakes her head in disbelief. Steve sits next to her and puts his hand around her.

Well this turned out to be a big episodes in my opinion! I'm gonna start with Gabi and Hope. Nick sure does seem to be putting holes all into Gabis plan. Hope/Salem PD falling short no doubt lolz. Cool interactions with Justin and Billie. I like when characters that don't usually interact too much have a great interaction and this was one. I feel for Billie trying to find a way to see Theresa. One can tell that she really cares about her. I love the descriptions in the will and sonny scenes. You are so good at that. Sonny's eyes reacting to the light and all. Good stuff. I like that Sonny is in the dog house. Very true to life. Theyve been having some really good scenes lately. Now to the big shock! Thought he was down about Roman or something. Was so not expecting this from Eric but it totally makes so much sense. I like that Nicole was trying her best to get through to him but his beliefs seem very strong. This is a very interesting turn in the story. I am really looking forward to to see where this leads. Awesome episode! Love how character driven it all is. Its all built up so great, man.

Cut to a 4th of July BBQ set up outside of the Davis house. Lily, Holden and Luke are also over from next door. They sit at a table with Trinity and her little sister. LILY: I wish your parents would let us help with something. HOLDEN: Yeah I would certainly help. I feel like bringing over chips isn’t enough. TRINITY: They are overachievers. Morris meanwhile is at the grill grilling some burgers and some chicken. Eartha brings him over some lemonade. EARTHA: Here you go babe. MORRIS: I’d prefer a soda. EARTHA: Okay…we are going to get along today right? MORRIS: There is a lot of people around…why wouldn’t we? EARTHA: Good. MORRIS: Who else is coming? EARTHA: Just a few more coworkers and friends. Malik looks towards his parents and shakes his head. Luke is up getting something to drink. LUKE: Everything okay Malik? MALIK: Could be better. LUKE: Sorry to hear that. MALIK: Oh well. The food will help. LUKE: And the drinks...don't forget the drinks. -- Reva and Josh arrive at their ranch with Jack. JOSH: Aren’t you happy to be out of the hospital? REVA: I hope you like your room here. JACK: I am. Hard to not beat the last one. One never gets use to the smell of mop water and medicine in those rooms. They enter and Marah is there. MARAH: Hey guys! JOSH: Hello Marah, glad you could make it! She hugs her parents. REVA: And this is Jack. He will be living with us for awhile. JOSH: Jack this is our daughter Marah. She is joining us for a little Independence Day dinner. JACK: Nice to meet you MARAH: Nice to meet you too. Glad you are back on your feet. They shake hands. JACK: Me too. Your parents tell you all about me? Don’t feel sorry for me I refuse to be a martyr. MARAH: They did and it’s awful. Also read about it online in the local news. JACK: Glad that article was a hit. I just hope the wrong people didn’t read it… -- Cut to Zack and Sam They are outside in a yard. Music is blaring from inside the house. SAM: I don’t think I want to be here. ZACK: I know you are the partying type. Do not even try and play me. SAM: I can be…but not with a bunch of strangers. ZACK: It is just a bunch of people from school. SAM: Fine but I am not staying too long! The two boys head inside. Anne is there and Sam and Zack both spot her. SAM: Sure... People from school alright. I see why you wanted to come here! ZACK: Okay Anne being here is a little bit of a perk. Cory Sutter is also there however. He and his friends are with Anne and Mandy. ZACK: But where there is Anne there is Cory. SAM: Are they an item? ZACK: I hope not. Either way I have to do something about it.. -- Blair is blindfolded in a car. Todd is driving and parks it somewhere. BLAIR: We are finally stopping? TODD: Yes BLAIR: That was a long ride. Where are we? TODD: You are going to love it. Todd takes off her blindfold. She looks around at the beautiful country side surrounded by mountains. The sun is setting over some of the mountains. BLAIR: Wow. TODD: Fantastic isn’t it? BLAIR: It's breath taking. TODD: And that isn’t it. He gets out of the car and takes out a basket and a blanket out of the back seat. BLAIR: A picnic! You have outdone yourself, Todd. TODD: You can’t believe it can you? BLAIR: I can’t. You’ve been so busy with work and all. TODD: I still got it Blair. He sets up the blanket. He takes out some candles. TODD: I have covered everything. BLAIR: I’m amazed. I love it!

EARTHA: That makes me so happy. Eartha and Elijah hug. Morris who is behind them at a distance is staring a hole through them. Cut to Luke, Lily and Holden. LUKE: Your big day is tomorrow mom.

HOLDEN: I am, but its top secret work. LUKE: What are you talking about? LILY: He’s right so top secret he doesn't even know what the job is! (laughs) MORRIS: You all can help yourself to burgers. HOLDEN: Thank you! Everyone gets up and starts to get food. Elijah and Morris get closer to one another. ELIJAH: Hi Morris. How are you? MORRIS: Elijah… (walks off) Morris pulls Eartha aside MORRIS: What is he doing here? EARTHA: I invited him. MORRIS: Well no sh*t, but I asked why... EARTHA: Not now Morris. Cut to Malik and Trinity MALIK: So lil sis got a summer job? TRINITY: I did. I even get to write some articles! I am in heaven about that. MALIK: So proud of you, sis. They spot their mom and dad having an increasingly heated talk in the distance. MALIK: Oh no they are at it now? TRINITY: The wannabe real house wife and husband of Union Creek. I hope this doesn’t spill out in public… -- At the Lewis Ranch: Marah, Josh, Reva and Jack are eating dinner. REVA: How’s the food Jack? JOSH: Some southern style home cookin’ from Reva. JACK: It is great. (gives his best southern accent) Compared to the food I’ve had at the hospital and while held captive, it is the bees knees. MARAH: I think it was awesome of you mom to bring Jack here. REVA: I have my good moments. JOSH: I honestly wasn’t so sure about this at first but I think I can warm up to you, Jack JACK: (Southern accent again) You reckon? JOSH: I reckon. REVA: I just hope that you will feel comfortable here. JACK: I think I will. I do appreciate all this. Really. -- The sun has gone down as Todd and Blair now have their picnic in the moon light. The candles giving off light. BLAIR: You have not only surprised me, but I think you have surprised yourself with all of this. TODD: You know Blair, sometimes ideas just hit me. Genius ones at that. Todd pours her another glass of wine. BLAIR: How did you get yourself to not stress over work tonight? Aren’t you supposed to be investigating something with your co-worker, Gary. TODD: Please do not bring up work and especially don’t bring up that pain in my a** Gary. I want this to be a good night. BLAIR: Sorry forget I mentioned it. Let’s talks about us. Actually, let’s not talk at all. She kisses him -- At the party: The music is blaring as the beers are flowing into teens mouths. Zack is dancing with Mandy. MANDY: I am shocked that you have some moves…well one move. Swaying. (Laughs) ZACK: Oh you are just hilarious. Because you are just a regular back up dancer for Beyoncé. MANDY: Whatever Zachery. The song stops playing and the two stop dancing. MANDY: Thank you for the dance anyway. ZACK: Any time Motor Mouth. She grabs a beer and walks off. Zack goes and finds Sam who is sitting down looking bored out of his mind. SAM: ...Can I go home yet? The neighbors across the street are having a barbecue and sure, I wasn’t invited because my family has made themselves the outcasts on the block, but I still would love to go sneak in. ZACK: Not yet, please. I need you to go and distract Cory so I can dance with Anne. SAM: Oh you just want me to go distract the big burly football star? ZACK: Yes. SAM: Fine…but then I’m out! -- “Power trip” by J Cole starts to play: [:00] The BBQ continues. Holden and Lily are eating. Holden grabs Lilys hand and squeezes it before lifting it up and kissing her hand. Luke gets a text on his phone. It is from Ben wishing him a happy 4th of July! Luke smiles wide. [:16] Trinity takes a sip of her lemonade. She gazes across the street towards Sams/the Manning house. Elijah is sitting next to Malik and a few nurses from the hospital. ELIJAH: Excuse me I have to make a phone call. Elijah calls his son, Terrance... [:31] Morris walks inside the house. He takes a bottle of whiskey out of a cupboard. He takes a drink straight from the bottle. He pours a large amount into his glass of soda and takes a nice, long drink of it. He looks back outside on Eartha eating alone. Trinity goes and sits by her. Morris makes his way back outside and sits by Eartha and Trinity who both do not look pleased that he is sitting there. [:57] At the party, Sam is talking to Cory and his friends. His friends are passing a joint of marijuana around. CORY: You seem so bored here. You need a hit. SAM: You really going to give me one, I thought you didn’t like me? CORY: I don’t even know you. FRIEND #1: Here you go. It is legal in Colorado you know. SAM: Yeah, not for high schoolers, but I would love some! Sam gets the joint and takes a nice big hit off of it coughing a bit afterwards. [1:22] Zack is with Anne ZACK: Want to dance Anne? ANNE: Yeah, why not.. The two start to dance together. As they are dancing Zack is trying to get closer and closer to her. [1:34] Cut back to Sam taking another hit of weed! CORY: Don’t be stingy now! Like it? SAM: I think I needed this. It has been too long since I’ve had some. He turns around and sees Zack and Anne dancing and busts out laughing. SAM: Right on. [1:48] Mandy is getting another drink. She sees Anne and Zack dancing too and isn’t all that thrilled about it. As Zack and Anne are dancing he finally gets close enough to where she is grinding on him. Zack is nothing but thrilled. She turns around and their necks and faces are close together. Both seemingly much into the dancing. [2:14] Out in the moonlight, Todd moves the wine and the candles. He and Blair are making out. He pushes her down onto the blanket. BLAIR: Are we really going to do this, Todd. Do you not think we are too old? TODD: Never, Blair. Todd takes off her shirt and then her bra. He starts kissing up on her neck as Blair then takes off his shirt. Todd sticks his hand down her pants before unbuttoning them. They both continue to undress as Fireworks start to go off in the distance over the mountains. Todd and Blair are making love under the moonlight and the light from the fire works… [2:45] Fireworks continue to go off beautifully lighting up the sky! [2:50] SONG COMPLETELY STOPS. Marah hugs her parents again. REVA: See you later. Good luck tomorrow. MARAH: Thank you so much. Marah is making her way to her car as she sees the fireworks going off in the distance. The light from the fireworks reveals someone in the nearby bushes. That someone watches Marah get in her car and drive away. The person then gets up and looks into the window at Jack, Josh and Reva… FADE TO BLACK Credits roll I do not own any non original characters nor any pics * *SEE THE ELIJAH AND TERRANCE PHONE CALL IN JUST PARADISE #13*
