    In an interview with new the new head writer, Brandon Fluellen, he says, "These two characters will shake the canvas to the core. Nichols will play John Hu, a leader of drug syndicate who has ties to many of Springfield's citizens. Barr on the other hand will play Cecilia, who will come to take Billy off Vanessa's hands. But she too has a past with some fellow Springfielders..."

    When asked about why the recent release of Karla Mosley and Murray Bartlett, executive producer Ed Scott had to say, "They don't fit into my vision of TGL. I want anything of the Kreizman/Wheeler era stripped of MY show! There are some of their charachers that can be saved but these two just have to go..." SOD asks, "Is there a possibility for a return in the future?" Head writer Brandon Fluellen reports, "Anything is possible but I would not hold my breath."

    Short Return








    SOD: "What is the purpose of Grady's short return?"
    Fluellen: "Part of Cyrus's exit. Grady is very much alive and seeing Cyrus' exit will thrust him into hiding agan."

    INT. MEL'S BEDROOM - NIGHT

    Cyrus kicks the door in while carrying Mel. The two passionately kiss, devouring each other. Cyrus lies Mel on the bed gently and stand above her, examining this goddess. He is in awe at what he sees.

    Cyrus: My God. I have never seen something so beautiful in my life.
    Mel: Then make love to me. Take me now. I am yours.

    Mel willingly stretches across the bed. Cyrus turns away, dejecting her. Mel notices this and his hurt.

    Mel: I thought you said I was beautiful? What is wrong?
    Cyrus: I don't know -- are we moving too fast? Mel, should we be doing this?
    Mel: ...Umm YEAH! I have not had any in a long time and I desperately need it.

    Mel grabs Cyrus by the hand, turning him back to her.

    Mel: Cyrus, we can't deny our passion any longer. We just can't.

    Cyrus gives in and rips off his shirt. He climbs on top of Mel and they two kiss again while pulling each other clothes off.

    EXT. TERRACE - NIGHT

    Beth is curled up in the backyard swing, sipping a glass of wine. Worry plagues Beth. She is then startled by Caroline, who touches her shoulder from behind.

    Beth: You scared me.
    Caroline: I'm sorry. I just wanted to see how you were doing. You seem a little down.
    Beth: A little? Try a lot. India returning has totally brought my day down.

    Caroline joins Beth on the swing.

    Caroline: What is it about this...India woman? Who is she to Alan -- I mean Mr. Spaulding?

    Beth gives Caroline a friendly pat on her leg.

    Beth: You really care about, Alan. Don't you?
    Caroline: Why -- uh yes. He is my boss. I have a right to care, don't I?
    Beth: You do. But you shouldn't. Now that India is back in town, Alan is going to use this to his advantage. And that woman -- (starts to seethes) That woman! She is going to wreak havoc on us all. India is nothing but trouble. Everything she does is either motivated by money or vengeance.
    Caroline: But she claims to love Phillip and Alan.
    Beth: Yes, their money. Let me tell you about India. She came to town to get one on Alex and ended up marrying Phillip in the process. She tried everything she could to get Phillip to get over me but her plan failed. Then she went for Alan and they become lovers but it never went further than that. That woman is just sick. Watch her. I mean WATCH her.

    And on a disturbed Caroline,

    INT. MEL'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

    It's pitch black dark but through a window we see a car light as it pulls in. A door slams.

    Leah: (O.C) Bye, Mia. Call me when you get home.

    The sound of a key opening a door is heard and enters Leah.

    Leah: Damn its dark in here. Mom! Mom are you here!

    Leah flicks the light switch on next to the door. She tosses her coat and bag next to the door and closes the door.

    Leah: Guess she is sleep.

    Leah makes a b-line into the kitchen where she sighs at the sight of no food on the stove.

    Leah: Great. So she did not cook either. Mom, what is going on with--

    WHAP! BANG! Leah jumps in fear at this loud crash.

    Leah: Mom...

    No answer back. Leah starts to panic.

    BANG! Another sound is heard. Leah squats down on the ground, distraught.

    Leah: Ok. So I know it came from the basement.

    Leah creeps over to the counter and grabs a knife.

    Leah: Please let this be Mom.

    Leah opens the door to the basement and

    INT. BASEMENT

    flicks on the light where she stands at the top of the stairs.

    Leah: Who is there?

    No answer.

    Leah: Aww damn...

    Leah slowly makes her way down the stairs breathing heavily. She clutches the knife tightly to her side with dear life. She stops at the bottom of the stair and flicks on another light switch which lights up the bottom half of the basement.

    Leah: Who is in here?

    Grady, leaned up against the side bookshelf, watches on. Then a book falls from the shelf. Leah aims the knife at the shelf.

    Leah: Come out dammit or I will --
    Grady: You will do what?

    Grady comes from behind the bookshelf.

    Grady: Gut me like a fish?
    Leah: Who the hell are you?

    She eyes him down and suddenly her face drops as she remembers who he is.

    Leah: You -- you're Grady...
    Grady: (in a game show host voice) CORRECT!!

    Grady grabs Leah and draws her in near to him. He takes the knife from her and holds it to her throat as he places his hand over her mouth.

    Grady: Looks like you got yourself into some trouble, sweet pea.

    And on Leah panicking,

    INT. LEAH'S BEDROOM - DAY

    Leah stands in front of the mirror gently stroking her hair with her brush. Her mind begins to drift off on what happened last night...

    FLASHBACK SEQUENCE - LEAH & GRADY

    Leah: Let me go! Let me go, Grady. Please. I -- I will give you anything you want. You want money, I have money.
    Grady: I don't need any money from you. I have my sources...
    Leah: Then what can I do to help you. I'll -- I'll do anything. You tell me.

    Grady's ponders for a second and then his face lights up.

    Grady: You. You -- I can use you to help me with Spaulding.
    Leah: What?
    Grady: I can use you to help me get one over on Spaulding.
    Leah: You mean Alan?
    Grady: No, Phillip.

    Leah is puzzled by this statement.

    Leah: Why are you so adamant about Phillip?

    Grady pulls back his hair to reveal a scar to her. Leah cringes at the sight of the grizzly, !@#$%^&*] scar.

    Leah: What happened to you?
    Grady: Phillip Spaulding and that is all I can tell you now.
    Leah: But if you want me to help you, you should tell me everything.
    Grady: How about you just shut up and do as I say.
    Leah: Ok...

    Grady releases her and pushes her away from him.

    Grady: And plus this should be what you want.
    Leah: I want? What do you mean what I want?
    Grady: Vengeance.
    Leah: For what?
    Grady: If it wasn't for Phillip, Rick would not have lied to your mother about helping Phillip escape the country.

    Leah starts to fume at the reminder of this. Grady walks up behind her and whispers in her ear, assuming control.

    Grady: This your chance to get one over on him. Your chance to pay Phillip back for the misery he has caused you. Come on Leah, join me. Join me...

    INT. MEL'S BASEMENT – DAY

    Cyrus and Grady ease down the stairs quickly and quietly.

    Cyrus: Hurry. I don't want Mel to catch us.

    Grady: (stops) Does it even matter? It's not like Mel is actually going to turn me in.

    Cyrus: Don't be so sure of that. (grabs Grady by the arm) Now come on!

    Cyrus drags him down the stairs when the door opens from the top of the stairs. Cyrus swings Grady off to the side out of sight. Standing at the top of the stairs is Mel.

    Mel: (coming down the stairs) Hey you.

    Cyrus: Hello to you. (panicking) Umm…don't come down here! Stay where you are at.

    Mel is mystified by this.

    Mel: Why? Is something wrong? (rushes down the stairs) Is something wrong?

    Cyrus rushes back up the stairs where he meets Mel. He places his arms out to block her.

    Cyrus: I don't want you down here due to I am about to place mouse traps down. I don't want you to get hurt.

    Mel: How could a mouse trap hurt me? I think I can spot one.

    Cyrus: Yeah but I also sprayed down here too and I don't want you to inhale the fumes.

    Mel: Well then you should not be down here either?

    Grady rolls his eyes.

    Cyrus: (agitated) Mel…

    Mel: What is going on here? It's as if you are hiding something from me.

    Cyrus: (boastful laugh) What? Are you kidding me? Me? What do I have to hide?

    Mel: I don't know. You tell me?

    Cyrus' impatience runs out and he plants a deep, passionate kiss on Mel. Grady watches from within the cracks of the bookcase. He cringes at the sight of this. Mel breaks the kiss, confused by this action.

    Mel: (gently rubbing her lips) What was that?

    Cyrus: A kiss. Did you not like it?

    Mel: No! No! It was nice. I'm -- I'm just taken back by this.

    Cyrus: I am glad that it was good. I want to show you more.

    Mel: (holding her hand out) Then let me lead the way.

    Mel guides Cyrus up the stairs. Grady and Cyrus exchange looks before Cyrus closes the door.

    Grady: Lucky bastard…

    INT. DINING ROOM – DAY

    Alex: Last time I checked, the boys were out on the terrace.

    Alan: (getting up) Maybe I should go and check on them.

    Alex pulls Alan back down.

    Alex: How about you stay in your lane and don't worry about them. See that's your problem, you always worry about everybody else situation but your own.

    A-M: (O.C) I agree.

    Alan Michael and Phillip walk back in the room with their arms on each other shoulders. Everyone watches on overjoyed. All but Alan.

    Phillip: Sorry we are late. We had a heart to heart.

    Alex: No problem. Just glad to see you two getting along and not at each other throats unlike other siblings I know.

    Alex cuts her eyes at Alan.

    Beth: (gesturing) Join us.

    Phillip grabs a seat next to Beth while Alan Michael sits next to Alex. Caroline starts to walk out the room when,

    Lizzie: Caroline, aren't you going to join us also?

    Caroline: Oh no. I'm sure there is some filing that needs to be done.

    Alan: There is.

    Alex: Then too bad because Caroline is going to join us. (to Caroline) Have a seat.

    Caroline does as she is told and has a seat next to Alan Michael.

    Alex: See now. Even though we are dysfunctional, we all can sit down have a dinner together.

    Alan: (groaning) Oh please. This day just keeps getting worse and—

    India and Dorrie barge into the room to the delight of no one. Alex stands up bewildered and frustrated. On the other hand, Alan is delighted by the sight of India.

    Alex: India!

    Beth: Looks like this day has been shot to hell…

    Alan: No, I think it has just gotten better.

    India pants heavily. We can tell that her adrenaline is still running high.

    India: Stepmother dearest, how are you?

    Alex: India, what is going -- oh -- what -- ooo girl, what are you doing here?

    India: Well can't your favorite stepdaughter—

    Alex: My only and not so favorite—

    India: Ok then. Can I just get a hello?

    Alex: Hello. Now leave.

    India: Oh you're not serious.

    India gracefully sits in a vacant seat at the table.

    Alex: As a heart attack.

    India: (chortles) Then someone is about to have a heart attack because I have news for you all.

    Phillip: Oh God…

    India: Phillip, come on. I thought we were on good terms.

    Phillip: You thought wrong.

    India: Fine then. You all are just going to have to deal with me more now that I am moving back to Springfield.

    Alex clutches her chest in pain.

    Alex: Dear God. He is punishing me. Why, why, WHY!!!

    Alan: Oh stop, Alex.

    Alan snatches her hand away from her chest.

    Beth: India, why is your motive? What do you want now? Phillip? Alan? Money?

    Caroline: (leaning into Alan Michael, whispering) Who is this woman?

    A-M: India Von Halkein. One of Phillip's many ex-wives and Alan's lovers.

    Caroline: (jealous) Oh…

    India: (to Beth) Everything I do does not have to be money motivated.

    Beth: I doubt that seriously. You are nothing more than a gold-digger.

    Dorrie: I will not let you talk to my mother like that!

    India: Oh Dorrie, ignore Beth. She can call me anything she wants but she knows at the end of the day I have more class than she will on her best day. Beth Raines is nothing more than a piece of trash from the wrong side of the tracks.

    Alex: India!

    James: (overlapping) Hey!

    Lizzie: (overlapping) How dare you!

    Phillip: I will not allow you to sit at this table, India and talk to the mother of my children that way.

    India: Put a cork in, Phillip. Beth should be use to being called trash.

    Alex: I want her out! I. WANT. HER. OUT!!

    Dorrie: (tugging at India's arm) Let's go, Mother.

    India: Fine. My daughter and I will leave this house but we won't leave Springfield or Spaulding Enterprises.

    Phillip: You have no position at Spaulding Enterprises. The foundation had cut backs and we know for a fact that you were released.

    India slowly paces around the table.

    India: So true but that isn't the only position I have at Spaulding.

    Alan grins from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat.

    India positions herself behind Phillip's chair and leans in close to his ear.

    India: Have you forgotten that I still have seat on the board?

    Alex: Heaven help us.

    India: Which means that I still wield some power. The only way you will be able to get that seat back is if you buy it from me at my price. And I am sure you all don't want to buy me out at the high price I am willing to sell it for during this horrible recession.

    Alex: Try me. How much do you want to sell the seat for?

    India: 15 million!

    The room goes into a ruckus.

    Phillip: 15 million! What? India—

    Alex: Never. I will never pay for that. We find another way to get you off the board.

    India: And I will sue you. I gave you my price. Take it or leave it.

    Hilda the Maid enters.

    Hilda: Mr. Spaulding, I am sorry to interrupt but Mr. Cooper is here.

    Alan: Buzz?

    Hilda: No. Mr. Frank Cooper.

    Alan: Let him in.

    Hilda nods her head and gesture Frank to enter. Frank is followed by two other uniformed cops.

    Frank: Sorry to interrupt this dinner but we have been contacted by Gary's Limo that a limo of his has been stolen.

    India and Dorrie's eyes widen as they share a glance.

    Alan: I'm sorry but all of my limo's are owned by me.

    Frank: I know. But the limo that India arrived in was not.

    Frank smiles at a tense India.

    Frank: You wouldn't've stolen a limo would you, India?

    India: No. How dare you make such an accusation?

    Frank: India…they presented us with a bounced check, along with the limo number you took and its license plate. Just happens to be the one in the drive way.

    India: So what? Anyone could've put that there.

    Alex: Someone is a bit of a kleptomaniac.

    Frank: (pointing at India) Get her.

    The cops whip out their cuffs and walk over towards India and Dorrie.

    India: This -- this is a mistake.

    Frank: Read them their rights.

    India: Do you all know who I am! My father was the Baron of Andorra!

    Dorrie: Mother, shut up.

    The cops cuff India and Dorrie.

    Cop #1: India and Dorrie Von Halkein, you are under arrest for grand theft auto.

    Dorrie and India: WHAT?!

    Cop #2: Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of the law. You have the right to an attorney. If you can't provide yourself with one, one will be provided to you.

    India: This is a travesty! I am innocent!

    Phillip: Sure, India. Sure.

    Frank: Take them to the car.

    The cops escort India and Dorrie out.

    India: (O.C) Alan! Alan, help me!

    Frank: Sorry to interrupt, you all may go back to doing what you were doing.

    Alex: Thank you, Frank.

    Frank exits.

    Alex: Grand theft auto. Beth, you are a lawyer, how many years is that?

    Beth: 3 to 5.

    Alex: Good. According to the Spaulding Board Members handbook, a felony equals automatic expulsion from the board.

    Alan: If they are found guilty. Plus the expulsion is up to the present CEO of the company, which is me.

    Alex: What are you up to Alan?

    Alan: I happen to like India. And I want her to stay on the board.

    Alan gets up and heads for the door.

    Alex: Where are you going?

    Alan: To bail out India and Dorrie before a media crisis happens.

    Lizzie: Grandpa, are you kidding me?

    Alan: No.

    Phillip: Dad, if you bail that woman out I will never speak to you again.

    Beth: Me too.

    Alex: I second that motion.

    Lizzie & James: Ditto!

    Everyone looks at Bill, who sits in silence.

    Lizzie: Bill!

    Bill: Alan and I already don't talk so what would be the difference?

    Beth: Alan Michael? Caroline?

    Caroline: He's my boss.

    Alan Michael: I have no seat on the board anymore. He took it before I left town the last time.

    Phillip: Then it is settled. Us or India?

    Alan: (laughs) Do you all think you can blackmail me? And how many times have you all said you will never speak to me again but you always do?

    Alex: But this time is different.

    Alan: We shall see. Now I am going to get India and Dorrie. Goodbye.

    Alan walks out. Phillip runs to the door hollering,

    Phillip: You have made your choice and know you must live with it!

    Alan gives him a "thumbs up" and hops into his limo, driving off.



    FADE OUT

    Coming up on the final half:

    -Alan saves India and pays Gary to drop the charges against India

    -Leah and Grady meet and she is instantly attracted to him

    -Beth clues Caroline (Hope) in more on India

    -Mel and Cyrus have sex

    INT. COMPANY - DAY

    The usual busy lunch crowd. Buzz is in the kitchen flipping burgers while Phillip sits at the bar sipping a cup of coffee. Cyrus awkwardly slides into room, grabbing a seat next to Phillip. Phillip glances over at Cyrus, clearly annoyed.

    Phillip: What now, Foley?
    Cyrus: I know what you did to my brother. You're gonna pay.
    Phillip: (facing Foley) What are you talking about? Is this some new scheme of yours to try and scam someone? If so, you might wanna go back to the drawing board.
    Cyrus: No scams here. Just solid evidence.
    Phillip: Really? Then shoot.

    The two lock eyes. An unbearable silence overcomes them. The tension is so thick it can be cut with an knife. Suddenly, the door opens and in walks Harley.

    Phillip & Cyrus: (stunned) Harley?

    Buzz, not paying attention, comes from the kitchen whistling Dixie, carrying a plate with a burger.

    Harley: Dad...

    Buzz, noticing Harley, drops the plate on the floor.

    Buzz: Harley...is that you?
    Harley: In the flesh.

    And on Buzz shocked:

    Buzz rushes up to Harley pulling her into a huge bear hug.

    Buzz: Sweetie, I missed you so much.
    Harley: Me too, Dad. Me too.

    Buzz pulls away from Harley with a look of concern.

    Buzz: Where are the boys?
    Harley: They are with Rick.
    Phillip (joining them): How are they?
    Harley: Good. Happy to be back home.
    Buzz: Home? So does that mean you're back for good?
    Harley: (heavy sigh) Unfortunately.
    Buzz: Harley!!

    Harley laughs.

    Harley: I'm joking. Just joking.

    A belligerent customer storms up to Buzz.

    Customer: Hello? I asked for a burger like ten minutes ago. I thought the service was speedy.
    Phillip: Well can you wait! The man's daughter just came home. Damn!
    Buzz: (mediating) It's ok. He is right. (to customer) I'll be with you shortly and this will be on the house.




    The customer heads back to his booth.

    Buzz: (to Harley) Later?
    Harley: Later.

    Harley kisses Buzz on the cheek. He lights up in the face and heads back into the kitchen.

    Harley: (to Phillip) So what did I just walk in on?
    Phillip: Nothing much.
    Harley: Yeah...

    Cyrus joins in the convo.

    Cyrus: Harley...umm...how are--
    Harley: I'M FINE. Thank you.
    Cyrus: Well if you two would excuse me.
    Phillip: Bye.

    Cyrus exits.

    A tad bit of awkwardness between Phillip and Harley.

    Phillip: Do you wanna talk?
    Harley: Might as well. You weren't going to quit bothering me until I said yes anyways.

    Phillip guides Harley to a booth nearby where they have a seat.

    INT. WSPR - DAY - CONFERENCE ROOM

    Holly sits at her desks, going over the budget when a KNOCK is heard on the door.

    Holly: Come in!

    Dinah peeks her head and Holly is thrilled to see her.

    Holly: I was wondering when you were going to arrive.
    Dinah: Sorry I am late. Shayne and I got into a bit of an argument.
    Holly: You ok? (points to the seat in front of her) Come, come sit down.

    Dinah grabs a seat across from Holly.

    Dinah: I'll be fine. So what did you want?
    Holly: Since your mother signed over the position of general manager back over to me, I was wanting to make some changes. I want WSPR to go back to being the hardcore news station we use to be. What I am trying to say is Dinah -- I want you to come back and be an anchor for the show.
    Dinah. I don't know...
    Holly: Dinah. You have what it takes. You have that pizazz, that spunk that will draw crowds in. I am trying to build a strong team of anchors and I want you to be one of them. I won't take no for an answer.
    Blake: (off-screen) Mom--

    Blake barges into the room and all the attention is turned towards her.

    Blake: (snarky) Dinah. What are YOU doing here? I thought you wanted out of WSPR when Vanessa signed things back over to my mom?
    Holly: That's the reason she is here. I want Dinah to join the new team of anchors.
    Blake: What?!
    Holly: Yes.
    Blake: Mother, are you crazy? Dinah is all shades of controversy. Do you think the sponsors really want to invest in a two time killer? She killed Hart and now she is on trial for killing some Edmund look-a-like.
    Holly: She is innocent until proven guilty, Blake.
    Blake: Guilty my behind. I can tell you now that gun wielding Dinah was behind this man's death.
    Dinah: Can you two just stop for a second?
    Holly: (to Dinah) Hold on a second, honey. (to Blake) Why don't you think Dinah is good enough for the position? Do you know someone who could do it better?
    Blake: Actually I do.
    Holly: Who?
    Blake: Me.

    Dinah burst into laughter.

    Dinah: Are you serious?
    Blake: As a heart attack.

    Blake and Dinah argue amongst each other like the old times. Holly watches on grinning from ear to ear. I think Holly might be onto something....

    EXT. PARK - DAY

    The park is filled with various Springfield citizens. Rick attends to the grill wearing his chef hat and apron. His phones goes off.

    Rick: Hello?

    INTERCUT - TELEPHONE CONVO

    Ed: Son, its me. I need you to come home now.
    Rick: Dad, I can't. The festivities are about to begin.
    Ed: Rick! Listen to me, this is serious.
    Rick: Then just tell me over the phone. Did you burn the pies? Dad, please tell me you took them out.
    Ed: Rick, SCREW THE DAMN PIES! Meta, Trudy, Bruce, and Mike are dead. Michelle just called again and got word their plane went down.

    Rick holds the phone to his ear with no reaction. The color from his face slowly starts to drain.

    Rick: What about Hope?
    Ed: They have not found her yet but I am assuming she died too.
    Rick: (stifles his tears) We have -- have to find Alan Michael then and tell him.
    Ed: He's already here.
    Rick: He is?
    Ed: Yes. Look, Rick, just get here as soon as you can. You might want to bring Phillip and Alan as well.
    Rick: Yeah...

    Ed hangs up the phone. Alan Michael lies on the couch look up at the ceiling, still fighting back tears.

    A-M: Why, why did you tell him to bring Alan?
    Ed: He needs to know about your mother and know that you are here. No need in hiding it now.
    A-M: (sits up) Do you not realize that I am an fugitive!
    Ed: We'll Alan to fix that.
    A-M: Like he ever will.
    Ed: Out of respect for your mother, he will.
    A-M: Hmph.

    INT. OLIVIA PENTHOUSE

    Olivia collapses into Jeffrey's arms in a panic.

    Olivia: Please tell me this a dream. TELL ME!
    Jeff: Unfortunately not. Olivia--

    Olivia breaks away from him and sits on the couch, holding her head down.

    Olivia: This is a joke. This is a cruel joke. Sam is not dead. HOW DID HE DIE?
    Jeff: It was an accident. He was in Switzerland with some friends--
    Olivia: Switzerland?
    Jeff: Yes. You didn't know?
    Olivia: DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW!
    Jeff: Olivia, calm down.

    Jeff reaches out to comfort her and Olivia snatches away.

    Olivia: Hell no! Don't comfort me. Tell me why Sam was over there?
    Jeff: He was meeting up with Marah to go skiing--
    Olivia: Marah? She was in the accident too?
    Jeff: Yes.
    Olivia: Is she dead?
    Jeff: No. Sam managed to dig her to safety.
    Olivia: Dig her? They were in avalanche?
    Jeff: Olivia--
    Olivia: So Sam is dead due to Marah?
    Jeff: Olivia, that is just crazy.

    Natalia and Emma come out the room.

    Emma: Surprise!

    Both of them read Olivia's reaction.

    Emma: Momma, what is wrong.

    Olivia turns away and wipes the tears away.

    Olivia: Nothing. Nothing at all.
    Natalia: There is something wrong. Has Jeffrey upset you?
    Jeff: Hold on, don't shoot the messenger--
    Natalia: What is going on?

    Olivia walks over to Emma and kneels down to her.

    Olivia: Go and pack some clothes. We are going on a little trip.
    Emma: Momma, we gotta go to the cookout. Maureen and Clarissa are going to be there.
    Olivia: Emma...

    Emma storms off and slams her room door.

    Natalia: Olivia, what is going on?
    Olivia: Sam is dead.
    Natalia: Ay dios mios! How?
    Olivia: Apparently in an accident. (to Jeffrey) Where is Josh and Reva? Why aren't they here?
    Jeff: Why would they be here?
    Olivia: To tell me the news. Why send you? Why? Is it because Marah is ok and safe so they don't have to worry about Sam?
    Jeff: That is ludicrous.
    Olivia: Not when it comes to Josh and Reva it doesn't! As long as their family is safe, its screw everyone else. Why the hell aren't they here?
    Jeff: I told them to go ahead to the cookout. Josh was--
    Olivia: HE WAS. But did he? No. He should've came to me before going to Reva. Marah is fine and living. Sam is dead. Oh God...

    Olivia eases back onto the sofa in tears.

    Olivia: Dammit!

    Olivia picks up an ornament from the table and tosses it at the TV, shattering it.

    Olivia: (to Jeff) Just leave!

    Jeffrey nods his head and leaves. Natalia goes to sit with Olivia on the couch but Olivia gesture her to stop.

    Olivia: Please, don't. I want to be alone.
    Natalia: Ok...I'll go pack.
    Olivia: Thank you.

    Natalia exits. Olivia sits on the couch deep in thought. Her demeanor changes from sadness to disdain. Anger runs through her veins.

    Olivia: (utters) I love you, Sam. I will avenge you. I will make Marah Lewis pay if it is the last thing I do...



    EXT. BUS STATION - DAY

    Rocky and Trista get off the bus, sharing a laugh.

    Trista: Wow. Must've been great to grow up in England.
    Rocky: It had its perks...

    The two walk over to the side of the bus and grabs their luggage.

    Rocky: Good old Springfield. Have not been here since my mom died...
    Trista: Well I'm sorry to hear about that.
    Rocky: Don't be. I've learned to deal with it along with my brother Coop's death as well.

    Trista looks saddened by Rocky's story. Even though he is hurting himself, he masks his pain to cheer Trista up as well.

    Rocky: Hey, where are you staying?
    Trista: I don't know. Campus dorms don't open up until August so I was probably going to get a room at the Springfield Arms Inn.
    Rocky: Eww, no.
    Trista: But its cheap.
    Rocky: Yeah and on the bad side of the town. Come and stay with me at Company.
    Trista: Umm, Rocky, I know we just met and all but you're moving a tad bit to fast for me...
    Rocky: I am talking about you getting a room at Company until school starts in the fall.
    Trista: I don't know...
    Rocky: Come on. It's on the house.
    Trista: I don't think so. I can't live off someone for free. Just not in my blood.
    Rocky: Then you can work in Company to pay for your room and board.
    Trista: Are you sure your father is going to allow this?
    Rocky: He has no choice. When he sees me, he'll be too happy to say no.

    Trista thinks for a second and then a grin comes on her face.

    Trista: Deal.
    Rocky: Good. (he wraps his arms around her) You'll enjoy it.

    Suddenly a man in a mask comes from out of nowhere and snatches Trista's purse and picks up running down the street.

    Trista: Hey!

    Rocky takes notices and chases after the man, luggage and all.

    Rocky: You son of bitch, get back here!
    Trista: Rocky! Rocky, wait! (to self) Just great. Just great!

    Trista grabs her suitcases and runs after Rocky.

    INT. TOWERS – DAY

    Michelle, Danny, and Ed continue to eat when Danny rejoins.

    Michelle: (anxious) What did they say?

    Ed: Michelle, give him time.

    Danny: You were right, Ed. The FCC the plane had been tampered with.

    Michelle: What? Are you kidding me? Someone planned this? Who would do something like this -- target Uncle Mike?

    Ed: Sure it had something to do with the investigation on the mob activity in DC. (tosses his napkin on the table in rage) I told him not to get involved. I had a bad feeling from day one.

    Rick: But Dad, that was Uncle Mike. You know he always had to do the right thing.

    Ed: But it cost him his life.

    Danny: Well I can look into it if you want me too. Call some old friends in the mob--

    Michelle: OH NO! Hell no. You left that lifestyle behind and I don’t want you going back to it.

    Danny: But it’s for the family.

    Michelle: So what. I’d rather be left in the dark than you getting back involved with the mob. Let’s just leave it up to the FBI to figure it out.

    Ed: She is right, Danny. We don’t need no more bad news no time soon. Let’s see what the FBI will do before we make drastic decisions like that.

    Rick: This topic is going to have to take a back seat since we need to heading to church now. (he gets up) You guys go ahead to the car, I am going to pay the bill.

    Rick whips out his Visa card and heads to the cashier. Ed, Michelle, and Danny excuse themselves heading to the elevator.

    INT. JESSUP FARM – DAY – LIVING ROOM

    Cassie opens the door to Reva, Josh, Baby Henry, and Shayne. She greets each one of them as they enter inside.

    Cassie: Sorry everyone that we are running a little late. RJ refuses to wear the suit I picked for him.

    Josh: Maybe I should go and help him?

    Cassie: I wouldn’t even bother. RJ is a preteen now, I doubt he’ll even listen.

    Reva: We know about that.

    They all laugh. Cassie leads them to the couches where they all have a seat.

    Cassie: Did anyone want anything to eat? I cooked a nice breakfast this morning.

    Reva: I don’t even think I can eat with this funeral.

    Cassie takes Henry from Shayne and starts playing with him. A combination of weird faces and bouncing him on her knee.

    Cassie: Weird, huh? I just can’t believe that Sam is dead. I just can’t. He was such a sweet boy.

    Josh: And I can’t thank him enough for saving Marah.

    Cassie: Neither can I. (looking around) Where is Marah?

    Reva: She’s not coming. I told her it is best to steer clear from Olivia as long as she can.

    Cassie: Reva, come on. I think that Marah should be there. She was friends with Sam, she even dated him at one point. She has every right to be there. And Sam would want her there.

    Reva: We know that but it’s what OLIVIA wants. This is more like the Olivia show than anything. And I don’t know how much I can bear of her actions against Marah. Causing her to lose her job in Paris—

    Cassie: What!

    Reva: So I guess your partner did not tell you? She has Marah fired La Bella. Guess she had friends in the higher ups.

    Cassie: Poor Marah.

    Shayne: It is. I’m growing sick of her moping around the room like she’s dead.

    Cassie: Then maybe Marah should start her own line.

    Reva: We tried. She refuses to take money from any of us.

    Cassie: Then what can we do?

    Reva: I have no clue but we better come up with something quick. I don’t know how much longer I can take of her locking herself up in that room.

    Cassie: We’ll figure something out. Is Jeffrey joining us?

    Reva: He’s at the church with Olivia and Natalia. She needs him more than anything.

    Cassie: Is Ava coming?

    Shayne: She’s suppose to.

    Cassie: Good, good.

    RJ slumps down the stairs and presents himself in front of everyone. He is not too eager about his outfit and slicked back hair.

    Reva: RJ, you look so handsome!

    RJ: (dully) Thanks, Aunt Reva.

    Reva grabs RJ by the arm, drawing him closer to her.

    Reva: (pushing his head up) Hold your head up! You’re a Shayne. We never hold our heads down. We have too much spirit for that.

    RJ lights up at his aunt’s encouraging words.

    Reva: (standing up) Now come on here and let’s go get you something to eat.

    Reva starts leads RJ into the kitchen.

    Cassie: Thanks, Reva.

    Reva: No problem, sis.

    Reva & RJ exit into the kitchen.

    Josh; That’s RJ for you.

    Cassie: Hasn’t changed a bit. (to Shayne) So what have you been up to?

    Shayne: Nothing much.

    Cassie: Yeah right. I heard that Ed wants to join the staff at Cedars due to your work you did in the Peace Corps. Whoever would’ve thought that Shayne Lewis would be a doctor?

    Shayne: (smiling) Who says I was going to take it.

    Cassie: You better! You’re smart, a good people’s person, and easy on the eyes. I am sure many women in Springfield would love for you to treat them. And again, this would be good for you to put your Peace Corps work to good use. You didn’t go over there for 3-4 years for nothing. Use those skills for the greater good.

    The doorbell rings.

    Cassie: Excuse me.

    Cassie gets up, holding Henry still, and head to the door.

    Cassie: Who is it?

    Frank: (O.C.) Frank.

    Cassie opens the door to Frank. Frank is impressed at the sight of her holding the baby.

    Frank: (playing baby Henry) Well aren’t you lucky to have such a beautiful woman hold you, Grandson. Must be the Cooper gene.

    Cassie blushes. She and Frank stare deep, longing into each other eyes.

    INT. CHURCH – DAY

    Olivia directs the ushers on where to place memorabilia of the deceased throughout the church. Natalia and Jeffrey sit in a pew nearby, watching.

    Olivia: I don’t want that picture of my brother there, put it over there...

    Usher #1 is done as he is told and moves the picture where Olivia points out.

    Olivia: (to Usher #2) Don’t put the flower like that! They go like this. (she walks up and arranges some of the flowers)...See what I am saying.

    Usher #2: Yes Ms. Spencer.

    Olivia: Good. Now do the rest like that.

    Jeffrey: Someone is acting like a Nazi today.

    Natalia: And you see that I am just going to steer clear from her until the funeral.

    Usher #3 walks out the back with candles in his hands, sending Olivia over the edge.

    Olivia: (to Usher #3) My God these are not the candles I asked for! These are cheap! (she snatches them from him and tossed them on the floor) I want good wax candles! Not that crap from the dollar store! This is funeral! Not some backwoods family reunion! Can anyone get one thing right?!

    Jeffrey: That’s our cue.

    Jeffrey and Natalia grab Olivia, leading her to the lobby.

    Natalia: Enough, Olivia. These men are doing just fine. They are here to help.

    Olivia: No, what they are doing is trying to put on a circus. Without my direction—

    Jeffrey: The funeral would still be good. You are over thinking and over working yourself.

    Olivia: (breaks free of their grip and turns to them) NO I AM NOT! CAN I JUST THROUGH—

    Natalia: Inside voice.

    Olivia: (calming down) Can I just through a nice funeral for my brother.

    Jeffrey: The thing is that this isn’t just your brother’s funeral. The ceremony is also shared by the Bauers too. You keep forgetting that.

    Olivia: …You’re right. I apologize. I’m a wrong as always. (getting emotional) Excuse me for trying to give Sam something nice and special! Excuse—

    The door to the church open and wobbling in on her crutches is Marah.

    And on Olivia’s utter disbelief,

    INT. LIMO - DAY
    (James/Phillip/Alex/Beth/Lizzie/Bill/Alan)

    Alexandra closes down her compact mirror to gaze over at Phillip, who is impatiently looking down at his watch.

    Alex: Looking down at that watch is not going to speed your father up. That man is going to do anything he can to avoid attending the barbecue.
    James: I say we leave without him.
    Lizzie: I second that motion. Why does Grandfather have to even go? We all know he hates the Bauers and vice versa. Let's just spare everyone the agony and leave him here.
    Phillip: Because he's going.
    Beth: Well I'd wish he'd hurry. Rick is waiting on us at the park to help set up.
    Phillip: I know. (glances at watch again) Where the hell is he?

    The limo door opens and Alan coldly slides in. The car takes off.

    Phillip: Glad you finally decided to join us, Dad.

    Alan doesn't react.

    Beth: Alan, are you ok?
    Alex: Yes, brother, are you ok? I mean I know you hate the Bauers but do you have to look so stone cold?
    Alan: I'M FINE. Can't a man just since in silence? (to James) Fix me a drink.

    James fixes Alan. He tries to go for a sip of it when Beth snatches it from him, handing it over to Alan.

    Alex: Well whatever has your panties in a bunch needs to happen more often if you are going to remain silent.
    Phillip: I am all for it.

    INT. CROSS CREEK - DAY

    Reva stand in front of the mirror adjusting her hat when Jeffrey walks up behind her, wrapping his arms around her.

    Reva: What, Jeffrey?
    Jeff: Nothing. Just realizing how lucky I am.
    Reva: Umm Hhmm. Whatever. You are still worried about me accepting that position with Lewis Construction.
    Jeffrey: No...why would I be worried.

    Reva breaks free of Jeffery's grip, facing off with him. She gives off that she is onto him.

    Reva: O'Neill, I know you are worried about me and Josh working together again...
    Jeff: Again, why would I be worried?
    Reva: I don't know but you have been moping around this house for past few days since Josh offered the position back.
    Jeff: Reva--
    Reva: Look -- if you don't want me to take the job then just say so.
    Jeff: I'm just worried about Colin. That's all.
    Reva: Lewis has a nursery.
    Jeff: That Josh just recently had installed.
    Reva: (throwing her hands up in defeat) Here we go.
    Jeff: What do you mean, here we go?
    Reva: Just admit it, Jeffery! You are jealous of--

    Josh barges into the house, distraught.

    Josh: Reva, Marah is in trouble.

    And on Reva's uneasiness,

    INT. MARAH'S ROOM - NIGHT

    Marah opens the door and walks in. She tosses the luggage off to the side and flops on her bed face-forward. Reva creeps in behind her.

    Reva: Still left the same way you did.
    Marah: (muffled by pillow) Thanks, Mom.

    Reva joins Marah on the bed. She rubs Marah on the back in comfort.

    Reva: Honey, I am so glad that you are home.
    Marah: I am sure you are.
    Reva: Ok. (gets up and heads to the door) There is some leftovers in the kitchen if you want some.
    Marah: Yep.
    Reva: I'll give you some alone time.

    Reva exits. Marah gets up and hobbles over to her slide doors where she exits onto the

    EXT. BALCONY

    Marah looks to the moon for comfort.

    Marah: Oh Sam...(breaking down)...I am so, SO SORRY. Forgive me...

    MUSIC MONTAGE - CITIZENS OF SPRINGFIELD

    INT. COMPANY - Trista giggles with the customers she is serving from a far, Rocky watches impressed. Suddenly, Lillian comes from the back and taps him on the shoulder. Rocky turns around to notice its her and in disdain, gets up and heads up the stairs. Lillian is hurt by this gesture.
