JAYJAY

Everyone is not who they seem to be in Springfield... Lucy and David's: David and Lucy are getting worried. David sighs, "So Cyrus is back in Springfield?" Lucy nods, "He saw Marina. He came here looking for answers. He acts like it's our fault Marina is the way she is." David sighs, "Maybe..." Lucy shouts, "No! We were going to give him to Marina. But you saw her. She is so messed up. No child deserves to live a life like that. Marina just isn't ready to be a Mom." He looks at her, "Lucy she fell into this lifestyle because she believed her baby had died." She shakes her head, "You know what we have grown such a bond with Davey. Things happen for a reason David! They do!" He sighs, "Lucy..." Lucy has tears in her eyes, "If Davey isn't our son? Then how do we tell him that? Tell him his messed up cousin Marina is his Mom and his father is a dead ex mobster." David sighs, "Aren't you tired of feeling guilty everytime we see Marina?" She sighs, "I love my niece, but I love my son more." He shakes his head, "Lucy he is technicallly Marina's son." Lucy shouts, "He's our son!!! He is our son. His name is David Grant Jr. and he has his bedroom filled with his toys, in a house filled with love, and everything a child could ever want. I don't give a damn what anyone says." David knows things have gotten out of hand. Company: Buzz is working. Coop walk in, "Hey Dad." Buzz smiles, "Hey Son. How is it to be back at work?" Coop sits down, "Great. A new semester new faces. I think things are going to go really well." Buzz nods, "Yep. Now all you have to do is work on getting a new girlfriend in your life." Coop sighs, "Dad." Buzz shakes his head, "Come on! You're a Cooper. You have a lot of passion that you need to let out. There are plenty of available young women who would love to be on your arm." Coop shakes his head, "I don't have time to get to know a new woman and work on a relationship." Buzz sighs, "Well how about looking up an ex. I mean you never know maybe there's the one that got away." Coop laughs, "And which did you have in mind? Lizzie Spaulding, there's no way in hell I'm getting involved in that mess again." Buzz nods, "I don't blame you." Coop sighs, "Then there's Ava who is engaged and seems like she is doing really well for herself." Buzz smiles, "What about Ashlee and Stephanie?" Coop shakes his head, "Both are just friends now. And I think it's best to keep it that way." Buzz smiles, "What about the mysterious woman I've never met." Coop begins to think about Mary. Aitoro House: Angela is sitting at the table. Gus walks in with food, "Hey where did Drew go?" Angela looks at him, "She had to run out." Gus nods, "Oh. Well I'll have to talk to her about leaving you here by yourself." She smiles, "I'm fine Daddy." Gus nods, "I know. Your tough like your Mom." Angela looks down, "I think Mommy wants to marry Uncle Phillip now." He sighs, "Well I wish them the best. Your Mom is a smart woman and seems to be happy with Phillip." She looks at him, "Are you happy with Drew?" Gus nods, "Of course. Drew is fun, she's beautiful, smart, we have a lot in common." Angela sighs, "I don't thinks he likes me." Gus looks at her, "Stop it. Drew likes you a lot, and Zach and Jude. Because you guys are my children and you are very important to me and that makes you importnant to her." Gus hugs his daughter. Main Street: Drew is walking with her cousin Dinah. Dinah sighs, "I'm just so stressed. And I'm working hard to give Belinda and Anthony everything they could ever want and I feel like they don't appreciate any of it. I mean it's like no matter what they see Mallet as the good guy and me as the bad guy." Drew shakes her head, "That's wrong. But you know what, soon they'll see what a good Mom you are." Dinah sighs, "I hope so. So what's up with you? How are things going with you and Gus?" Drew nods, "Well things were going great. We dated, fell in love, moved in together. Now that we've been living together for a while... it's different. Our sex life is great it's just... his kids." Dinah is confused, "You have a problems with his kids?" Drew shakes her head, "No. It's just didn't expect them to be around so much. I don't hate them. I just feel awkward. I mean they would obviously rather have Gus with Harley. Which I don't get. You think Zach and Jude would prefer Harley with one of their Dad's." Dinah nods, "Well Gus was a father to them for a long time." Drew nods, "Yeah. The boys aren't so bad. I mean I was good with Max when he was that age. But Angela... she's a sweet girl. I just don't know what to talk with her about." Dinah looks at her, "Well I remember Harley and Gus had to really struggle to adopt her. And Belinda is very close with Angela." Drew sighs, "I feel bad saying this but... I just don't think this is the life I signed up for when I got with Gus." Drew feels guilty admitting this. Mall: Cassie is doing some shopping. She is looking at an outfit and holds it up to her. She turns to look in the mirror. After examining it for a minute she sees who is standing behind her. Cassie gasps, "Marah." She turns to see her niece. Marah smiles, "Aunt Cassie. Don't you look nice. Too bad I can't be buying anything like that. I have to start looking for some very nice maternity clothees." Cassie sighs, "Yeah Jeffrey told me." Marah nods, "Well I'd be lying if I said I was sorry. But I understand how upset you must be. You can't concieve children anymore. Well I guess you can now but I mean I'm not sure you could deal with another miscarriage. You've had too many." Cassie shakes her head, "Let's not go there Marah. Okay I'm sorry but you are crossing the line." Marah laughs, "Wow! I'm crossing the line? That's hilarious. You still having fun nailing my Jeffrey?" Cassie sighs, "Jeffrey is not yours and it's not like that. I'm in love with Jeffery." Marah nods, "So am I. And I loved him first I don't care about the stuff that happened before that." Cassie sighs, "Marah it's not about that. Jeffrey and I are back together now. I just need you to accept that." Marah shakes her head, "No. I need you to accept that Jeffery, the baby, and myself... we're a family now. You need to move on." Cassie is so incredibly uncomfortable. Ravenwood: Alan Michael is standing with Ava. He puts his hand on her face, "You are still one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen." Ava pulls away, "You think that line will work on me?" He smiles, "It did once. Got you to give up Coop. You gave a up a lot of things when you got with me." She nods, "I had a lot more friends and a lot mroe respect before I left Coop for you. A decision that bit me in the ass." He laughs, "Come on, the day you found out that you were the daughter of Edmund Winslow and Olivia Spencer you had to know that no one in this town would trust you." Ava nods, "Well they taught me a lot. Maybe some bad but a lot of very useful things." Alan Michael sighs, "Did your mother warn you about getting to close with the Lewises?" Ava shakes her head, "She was to busy telling me to stay as far away from the Spauldings as possible. Maybe I should have listened." Alan Michael laughs, "If you had then you'd still be in here. I saved your ass Ava." She sighs, "Shayne saved me. And I'm going to repay him by using him. Some fiance I am." He scoffs, "Don't let your concious get in the way. You need to remember who you are Ava." Ava can't believe what she's gotten herself into. PART TWO: Aitoro House: Gus and Harley have never kept it a secret of their daughter's adoption. Gus is sitting with Angela on the couch. Angela looks at him, "So explain the family to me again. Your side." He sighs, "Okay. Well I was adopted too. So my blood parents are the Spauldings. Your Granddad Alan, Uncle Phillip and everyone. All those fun people." She nods, "What about your adopted family?" Gus smiles, "My adopted family was very good. My Dad was a cop, that's why I became one. And my Mom's name was Angela. That's who you are named after sweetheart." Angela nods, "Didn't you have a sister?" He sighs, "Yes. Eden. You would have liked her she was very fun and she always had something funny to say. Her and I were really close when we were kids. I miss her." Angela looks at him, "What happened to her?" Gus sighs, "Uh... she passed away honey." Angela is confused, "How?" He sits up, "We'll talk about it when your older. Hey go make us some ice cream okay?" Angela goes into the kitchen. Gus still wants to protect her from all the craziness in the world. Main Street: Drew and Dinah sit on the bench. Drew sighs, "I just feel bad. I mean I don't want to be that girlfriend. But I just wish the kids would spend more time with Harley. And Gus would spend more time with me." Dinah sighs, "Well as a parent I think you're crazy. But as a woman, I think you have needs and Gus needs to remember those before he loses something very good." Drew smiles, "See this is why I am so glad we found each other as cousins. I never knew how much we had in common." Dinah nods, "I know. I wish we had met years ago." Drew looks at her, "So tell me about your love life. Are you seeing anyone right now?" Dinah sighs, "Please between all my jobs, and my children I don't have time for men." Drew laughs, "Make time! Come on you are to beautiful not to have a guy in your life." Dinah shakes her head, "I don't know. I really thought Mallet was the one. Sometimes I still think he is." Drew nods, "You guys were the real deal huh?" Dinah nods, "Oh yeah. I mean I know right now I can't stand to be around him. But I really believe he is the one love of my life. And I think there's always a chance of ending up with your one true love again." Drew turns away. She has often heard that Harley is the love of Gus's life. Mall: Cassie puts her outfit back. Marah laughs, "Am I scaring you Cassie?" Cassie sighs, "Marah the last time we were this close to each other you tackled me to the ground." Marah laughs, "Water under the bridge Aunt Cassie. Come on you and I used to be very close once. I could always come to you about anything. You were there for me whenever I needed you. Whenever my mother and I weren't talking I would always go to you." Cassie nods, "You may not believe it, but I still love you Marah. You and Shayne I love you both so much. And I am so sorry that you got hurt. That is the last thing I would want to do." Marah smiles, "Are you scared? Scared that I might be like Dinah Marler. I might try to shoot you and end up shooting him? I'm not like her. When I shoot I don't miss." Cassie just stares, "Is that a threat?" Marah sighs, "I just think it will be in everyone's best interest if you step aside and at least give Jeffrey and I chance to give our child a happy life. A real family." Cassie sighs "Marah I-" Marah stops her, "You see I'm not like you Cassie. I don't like the idea of each of my kids having a different father." Cassie just stares at her neice. Marah looks at her watch, "I have to run. I got some errands to take care of. But I'll see you Aunt Cassie." Marah walks away leaving Cassie very shaken. Ravenwood: Ava is still with Alan Michael. Alan Michael sits, "So give me my updates on the Lewises." Ava sighs, "Reva's been doing better but no word on improvement yet. Josh and Annie are running the company since Billy and Vanessa left town. No one tells me but I think they are with Bill and Olivia. Helping them hide from the Spauldings and I guess me." Alan Michael nods, "See these are the people that we are dealing with. Hypocrites who keep a mother from her child. Tell me more." Ava sighs, "Jeffery left Marah for Cassie. But Marah flipped out real bad and attacked Cassie. She might be in here pretty soon. And that's about it for them." Alan Michael nods, "We need to use all of this. Ava you have to keep Shayne close to you. But still find out how far Marah is from cracking. I think she is our main target." She shakes her head, "I don't think so." Alan Michael sits up, "Ava you hate her. She is the woman who through you down an elevator shaft and put you in a coma. If it wasn't for that your life would be incredibly different right now." Ava looks at him, "What do you want me to do?" He smiles, "All you have to do is help push Marah over the edge. Believe me, Annie and the Lewises will hate it when they have to admit that their own Marah Lewis is a psychopath." Ava gets her purse, "You're sick you know that." Alan Michael grins, "Drive home safe." Ava leaves. Lucy and David's: Lucy sits on the couch. David sits with her, "Lucy we need to face the fact that soon this will all be out." Lucy sighs, "Really? You think we can let that happen? You will lose your job. Better yet, we'll be thrown in prison for kidnapping. Because the court won't care why we did it." He looks down, "We'll think of something." She shakes her head, "I can't do it David. I can't let him go. If someone comes to my door and tries to take my son away from me I swear to God I will die before I let that happen." David sighs, "Don't talk like that." She nods, "I am serious. Davey is our son now. I'm sorry that Marina is hurting. But why cause more pain? Why give Davey over to her when she probably won't love him the way that we do?" David shakes his head, "Baby... this wasn't what we planned. We were supposed to give him back to Marina when she was ready. We weren't supposed to make up a lie about adoption and pass him off as some little boy we were raising as our own." Lucy cries, "What do you think my Dad, Frank, Harley, Coop, and Rocky will do when they find out. I am prepared for Marina. But I can't handle all of them being mad at me." David puts his arm around her, "We'll figure this out okay?" Her face is covered in tears, "I can't let go of my baby." Lucy cries in her husband's arms. Company: Buzz sits with Coop. Coop sighs, "Stop staring at me." Buzz nods, "Why don't you want to talk about the mystery girl?" Coop sighs, "Because I will never see that woman again. I tried finding her... but it was pointless. No one knew where she went she basically disappeared. Vanished." Buzz shakes his head, "Come on. Didn't you look up her family? Or long time friends?" Coop nods, "No one knew of her family and her only friends had only known her for a few years. No one could tell me anything." Buzz is confused, "That doesn't make sense. People can't just pick up and disapear like that all on their own. You gotta have some kinda help. Why would she do that?" Coop sighs, "I don't know Dad I guess I freaked her out that much. I let it go a long time ago." Buzz gets back to work. Coop won't admit how much he thinks about Mary. And he would never tell his family that he married her the day he met her. But Coop never expects to find her. Though right outside she is watching. Mary stands outside the window. She sighs, "My husband. He has no idea what he is in for." PREVIEWS: Mary reveals her secret! The Coopers play a poker game Roxie and Ashlee have an argument Liz goes to Rafe for help Marah has a sonogram Dinah and Blake have it out

Everyone's got a dirty little secret in Springfield... Lucy and David's: Lucy is playing with little Davey. The doorbell rings. Lucy walks into the other room and answers it. Cyrus is standing there, "Hello." She stares, "What the hell are you doing here?" He smiles, "I had to do some digging to find out where you were living now. Nice place. Didn't Mel and Alan Michael live here?" Lucy sighs, "What do you want?" He looks at her, "I want answers Lucy. You hired me to find Baby Daniel. You cost me my relationship with Harley. I brought him back to you to find out she had moved on. The one silver lining I had was knowing that Marina would be reunited with her son. What the hell happened?" Lucy shakes her head, "You need to leave right now Cyrus. Just leave town and this time don't come back." Cyrus shakes his head, "No I want answers! Where is Marina's son?" Davey runs over to Lucy's leg, "Mommy." Cyrus stares, "Oh my God." Lucy gets very nervous. Museum Apartment: Sam is typing on his laptop. Susan walks over, "Hey working on your next story?" Sam nods, "Yep. You off to work?" She sighs, "Soon. Lewis is having a big meeting later I have to attend. I just have to find my stuff." He smiles, "Sit with me for a minute." She sits down next to him, "Just a minute." The two start to kiss. Sam smiles, "Stay home today." She shakes her head, "I can't always work from home like you can honey. I gotta get to the office." Sam grins, "Come on. We worked really hard to get this place all to ourselves. Let's take advantage of it." Susan sighs, "I know. But we have plenty of time for that stuff. We have everything we want." He nods, "And we are finally seeing less of Stephanie." Susan moans, "Don't say her name! I don't even want to think about her. I'm so tired of her crap." Sam sighs, "Come on. I think it's safe to say that Stephanie is probably going to move on now. We have." Susan isn't so sure. Police Car: Rocky is driving. Stephanie sighs, "It's a slow day." Rocky laughs, "I think that's a good thing for cops." She nods, "I know. But is it bad that a part of me really just wants like a robbery or something today?" He laughs, "What's with you?" She sighs, "I just have a lot of energy I have to get out. It's all built up right now." He nods, "Okay well we'll go to the gym when we get off tonight okay. I think that will help." She shakes her head, "It was just so frustrating seeing Sam with that dirty drug addict whore." Rocky sighs, "That dirty, drug addict whore is my niece." Stephanie sighs, "I know and I'm sorry. But she broke up my relationship with Sam and now they get to be happy together and everyone acts like I'm the bad guy in this situation." Rocky shakes his head, "Well Sam just wasn't the one for you. But you'll find Mr. Right." Stephanie sighs, "Every guy I date eventually gets bored with me. Remy, Coop, Sam. I'm just done." Rocky sighs, "Well I seem to push all the guys I love away. Things aren't going so well with me and Chaz." Stephanie looks at him, "Don't think I didn't see you at the club on New Year's Eve. Kevin was there." They continue driving as the two partners chat. Reva Bend: Reva is sitting in her living room. Shayne and Marah are there. Reva hugs Marah, "Oh baby. Oh congratulations. I can't believe you're gonna be a Momma." Shayne is trying to be positive, "That's really great Marah. I'm happy for you and... Jeffrey?" Marah nods, "Yes. It's with Jeffrey. I know it's complicated right now but we'll work it out." Reva smiles, "I know you will honey." Shayne doesn't want to let on how worried he is. He knows how unstable his sister has become. Marah puts Reva's hand on her stomach, "I think it's going to be a girl. I just feel it." Reva smiles, "Oh that would be so great." Marah grins, "I can't wait to start shopping for baby clothes and stuff. I'm so excited." Reva looks at Shayne, "Maybe soon you'll be having a baby." Shayne nods, "Well, Ava and I still have to set a date." Marah sighs, "Or not." Reva looks at her, "Marah!" Marah takes a deep breathe, "I'm sorry. I am trying to accept Ava. It's just going to take a while. But honestly I have bigger things to worry about then Ava." Shayne smiles, "Well you don't have to worry. Ava is amazing and I feel like she's the one." Reva nods, "Well I guess Ava has changed. She's nothing like her parents. Olivia or Edmund." Ravenwood: Ava walks with a doctor. He looks at her, "I think it's really great you still come here to volunteer for us." Ava nods, "Well you know you guys all helped me out so well. I feel like this is how I should give back." He nods, "Yes isn't this how you met your fiance Shayne Lewis?" She nods, "Yes indeed." The Doctor walks her to a room, "I'm sure he'll be happy to see you again." Ava walks into the room and shuts the door. She turns, "You're holding up well." Alan Michael stands, "Where the hell have you been?" She sighs, "I've been busy. I have to run things at the Beacon, I'm still working at Lewis, and I have a wedding to plan." Alan Michael nods, "Well I don't want you thinking that just because you're out there that you can forget our deal." She sighs, "I remember." He looks at her, "Well maybe I need to remind you. I am going to help you find your son and get him back from Olivia and Bill. As long as you can help me take down Annie Dutton and the rest of the Lewis Clan." Ava nods, "I'm engaged to Shayne Lewis. Everything is working out exactly the way we planned." Alan Michael grabs her arm, "Somehow I doubt that. I think that you are starting to fall for this loser Shayne." Ava shoves him, "He's not a loser. He's a good guy which you wouldn't know anything about." Alan Michael smirks, "I guess I'm right." He stares as Ava gets nervous. Aitoro House: Drew come downstairs. Gus is sitting on the couch. Drew reveals her sexy outfit she put on, "Hey." He looks over, "Wow." She smiles, "I thought you'd like it. I wanted to surprise you with it. What do you think?" Gus walks over to her and kisses her. Drew leads him over to the couch. Gus takes off his shirt. Drew starts kissing his chest. She starts to open his jeans when they hear a car pull up. Drew scoffs, "Please tell me it's no one." Gus looks outside, "Oh crap, yeah we need to stop." Drew shakes her head, "It's to late Baby." Gus pulls away, "No my daughter is here. Harley is dropping off Angela outside." She shakes her head, "No you don't have her today." He sighs, "I forgot to tell you. Harley has to go somewhere tonight so I'm getting her." Gus gets himself dressed. Drew slowly goes upstairs to change. The selfish part of her wishes Gus's didn't come with such baggage. PART TWO: Museum Apartment: Sam and Susan sit on the couch. Susan gets up, "I'm not trying to sound like a baby. But the things Stephanie said to me. They just get under my skin. I mean I know I've made a lot of mistakes in my life but I am trying to move on." Sam nods, "I know and you have." She shakes her head, "But people still see me as Susan the druggie, Susan the criminal, Susan the slut." He shakes his head, "Not everyone. I don't. Your mother and you have a much better relationship now." Susan sighs, "But I'm still not comfortable around Gus. I can't even look at my Aunt Cassie without feeling guilty about Tammy. And everyone else that Guillespie and I hurt." Sam nods, "Well you have not seen that loser in years. And you have come so far." She looks at him, "But can you honestly say that I will be able to really move on from my past without someone jumping up so that they can rub my nose in all of it?" Sam sighs, "There will always be haters. But look at my niece Ava, her life is going great now. And your Aunt Cassie. This town is able to forgive people if they can forgive themselves." Susan grins, "You always know just the right thing to say." Susan gets back on the couch and kisses Sam. Police Car: Rocky and Stephanie park. Rocky sighs, "Okay so I ran into Kevin." Stephanie nods, "Was it awkward?" He nods, "Yes. I mean we can't even really talk. Because still no one really knows that we were ever together. I don't think Kevin ever even came out to anyone." Stephanie sighs, "But you said you were so in love with him once. I mean you told me." Rocky sits back, "Well they warned me that partners tend to share everything with each other." Stephanie nods, "I've certainly told you a lot." Rocky sighs, "I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about getting back together with Kevin." She looks at him, "Well whatever you decide just make sure you choose someone who really loves you. That's what I need to do. I need to find someone who can love me for who I am. Someone who's not going to just think I'm cute and then dump me when they find someone they like better." He nods, "You will." She shakes her head, "I don't know. It seems like guys like the good girls like me. But they always have a desire to go after the wild chicks. No matter how bad they are for them." Rocky and Stephanie have grown very close as friends through their job. Aitoro House: Gus is with Angela in the kitchen. He is fixing her a snack. Drew walks downstairs in a more appropriate outfit. Angela waves, "Hi." Drew smiles, "Hi Angela. How are you?" She grins, "Good." Gus smiles, "It's just going to be Angela for now. Zach is off at school and Jude is with Rick." Drew nods, "Well that makes sense." Drew still doesn't quite understand why Zach and Jude still spend so much time at Gus's house. He's not their biological father. And he's not even with their Mom anymore. Gus looks at Drew, "Hey I'm going to run out later and get some fast food for us." Drew sighs, "I thought we were going to have sushi?" He nods, "Angela doesn't eat sushi." Drew nods, "And I don't eat fast food. But that's okay." Drew walks off to her bedroom. Reva Bend: Reva is sitting with Marah and Shayne. Marah smiles, "I'm going to buy a baby book soon. And I want to start looking up names." Reva grins, "Slow down. You have plenty of time." Marah nods, "I really want a name from the family. We got my name from Grandma Martha and Grandma Sarah." Reva laughs, "Do you even know Jeffrey's mother's name?" Marah shakes her head, "Jeffrey never talked about his family with me? Did he with you?" There's somewhat of an awkward pause. Reva smiles, "Don't be uncomfortable. Jeffrey and I broke up years ago. He was a great guy for me and we had so much fun together. But I always had a feeling he belonged with someone else." Marah smiles, "Oh Mom." Shayne looks at his Mom. He can tell that she wasn't referring to Marah. Reva sighs, "What a year to look forward too. Marah is about to have a baby. Shayne is getting married. You two both give me so much to look forward to. So much to live for." Shayne takes his Mom's hand, "You have a lot more to live for." She touches his face, "I know Baby." Marah and Shayne hugs their mother. Ravenwood: Ava turns away from Alan Michael. He smiles, "Of course. I should have known that you would fall for that Lewis charm again. Just like you did with Bill." Ava shakes her head, "It's not like that." He nods, "Good. Because you remember how that ended. Bill and Olivia left the country with Emma and Baby HB. You and Phillip don't get to see your children anymore because of their selfishness. My cousin Michelle was left heart broken. They hurt a lot of people." Ava sighs, "I don't think that was their plan. They were trying to get away from your family." He scoffs, "Are you defending them now?" She shakes her head, "No. All I want is to get my son back home to me. I need him back." Alan Michael nods, "Good. I just don't want to see you falling for another one of these 'Prince Charming's." Ava shakes her head, "Nope. I went through that with Sandy, Coop and Bill. I'm not going through it with Shayne." He laughs, "Am I the only one of your ex boyfriends that you don't consider a good guy." She looks at him, "What do you think?" Alan Michael sighs, "Annie Dutton cost me a lot. My marriage and life with Mel is all ruined. And the Lewises have always been in my family's way. But you are the key to helping me get my revenge." Alan Michael looks deep into Ava's eyes. Lucy and David's: Lucy puts little Davey back in his room. Cyrus is in the house now. She looks at him, "Get out!" Cyrus is in shock, "I recognized that face. I can't believe this! Lucy that is Daniel." Lucy shakes her head, "You don't know what you're talking about." Cyrus nods, "That's Daniel! I brought him back to you in Springfield! Then I left town. I thought you were going to give him back to Marina. What the hell is wrong with you?" Lucy sighs, "It's not what you think. We were going to. But Marina is very messed up now. She is in no condition to be someone's mother." Cyrus shouts, "But she is! She is Daniel's mother! Daniel is the last child of Danny Santos. Doesn't his family deserve to know that?" She shakes her head, "Yeah let's just tell him that his family was involved in the mob that's great." Cyrus stares at her, "Isn't David a cop? How can he believe this is okay?" Lucy sighs, "I told you. We have to do what is best for Davey." Cyrus scoffs, "Daniel. That is Daniel Santos Cooper. The little boy Aubrey took from Marina." Lucy shakes her head, "No." He goes to the door, "I'll give you a week or two to make your decision. Then I go to Marina and I tell her everything." Lucy shouts, "Cyrus no!" Cyrus walks out the door. He passes David on the way out. David walks in, "Cyrus Foley? What was he doing here?" Lucy has tears in her eyes. David sighs, "It's over isn't it?" Lucy stares at her husband in fear.

Very interesting parent/child relationships in Springfield... Spaulding Mansion: Lorelei looks in the mirror. She smiles, "Well Lorelei you did it. But it looks like you're gonna be Beth from now on. Beth Spaulding. I like it. I am Beth Spaulding." Lorelei has lost her accent now and found joy in her designer clothes and expensive jewelry. She enjoys her new classy lifestyle. Alan walks in, "What are you so happy about?" Liz follows. She smiles, "Oh Alan. It's official. Phillip and I are divorced. We just have to file the papers." Liz shakes her head, "Wow Mom. You sure are very happy about your marriage failing." Alan looks at her, "That's enough Elizabeth. Now your father gave up on his marriage because he was once again tangled in the disgusting mess that is Harley Cooper." Lorelei grins, "Well he is giving up a lot to be with her. I sure hope she's worth it." Liz shakes her head, "Look at you two. It wasn't that long ago that you both believed love was more important than money." Alan sighs, "Don't be so dramatic Elizabeth." Liz scoffs, "No! Mom you were so in love with Daddy once. And Granddad... what about Natalia and the baby? Have you forgotten all about them?" Alan gets angry, "That is enough!" Alan is getting frustrated with his Granddaughter. The Spauldings have been trying to hide how empty their beautiful mansion has become. Chamberlain Mansion: Belinda walks inside. Dinah walks over, "Belinda! How are you honey?" Belinda sighs, "Hey Mom. Where's Anthony?" Dinah grins, "He's upstairs playing in his room. I think he really likes the new toys I bought him. Don't worry you have some new stuff in your room as well." Belinda nods, "Thanks." Dinah smiles, "So tell me about your day. How was school? Did anything interesting happen?" Belinda walks away, "I'm going upstairs." Dinah follows her, "Belinda what's wrong?" Belinda turns to her, "Mom! Stop pushing me. You can make me stay here but you can't make everything okay." Dinah sighs, "I know things have been rough. But I think we need to work on our relationship." Belinda shakes her head, "Just leave me alone. Go do something else. Why don't you go to work? That's where you belong right?" Belinda walks to her room. Carriage House: Blake is sitting on her couch. She has a lot of new ideas for her show. The door opens. Clarissa walks in. Blake stands up, "Sweetheart." Clarissa looks at her, "I didn't think you'd be home yet." Blake smiles, "Well I am. Hey why don't we go out to lunch? I'm starving. My treat." Clarissa shakes her head, "I had lunch at school." Blake laughs, "That's right." Clarissa heads to her room. Blake follows her, "Honey. I think we should talk about our fight we had. I'm sorry I got so angry." Clarissa sighs, "I was out to late. I'm sorry. We're done with it." Blake shakes her head, "I'm just worried. I mean I feel like you never tell me anything anymore. We used to be able to talk about anything and everything. But now..." Clarissa sighs, "You know what? Maybe after everything that's happened, it's a little hard for me to trust you." Clarissa goes into her room and shuts the door. Farmhouse: Jeffrey is in the kitchen. Cassie walks in, "Hey I got your message." Jeffrey sighs, "Let's talk." She looks at him, "What is so important that I had to leave work for? Wait is this one of those things where you surprise me with love making? Because RJ might be home soon." Jeffrey shakes his head, "No I wish it were. I have to tell you something Cassie." She sits down, "You're scaring me now." He nods, "Well it's serious." Cassie is worried, "Is it RJ or Will? Reva?" Jeffrey sighs, "It's Marah." Cassie nods, "Well whatever it is we'll get through this. Is Marah okay? Did she hurt herself?" He sighs, "Not exactly." She is confused, "What's going on?" Jeffrey looks at her, "She came to see me today. She had to tell me something big." Cassie stares, "What could Marah possibly have to tell you?" Jeffrey sighs, "She's pregnant Cassie. Marah is pregnant with my child." Cassie stares in shock. Lewis Enterprises: Josh and Annie are in the office working. Marah walks in, "Hey guys." Annie smiles, "Hi sweetheart. You okay?" Marah nods, "Yes. I'm more than okay." Josh grins, "Well I'm glad to hear it. Did you go to work today?" Marah shakes her head, "No I didn't. I might not be able to work a lot for a while." Josh sighs, "Well you take your time Darlin'. No one is rushing you to get back to work." Marah nods, "I might take a maternity leave." Josh is confused, "What?" Marah smiles, "I'm pregnant." Josh and Annie stare for a moment. Marah just grins. Annie walks over, "Congratulations honey! I'm so happy for you that's great news for you." Marah hugs her. Josh stands up, "Is this... Jeffrey's?" Marah nods, "Yes. I already told him. He is talking to Cassie right now I believe." Josh walks over, "Marah are you sure?" Marah smiles, "Of course. Jeffrey and I are going to be parents." Josh and Annie look at each other. Cedars: Reva sits in her bed. All of her pictures of her children are with her. Her picture of Jonathan and Sarah is pretty old. It's been so long since she's seen them. But the rest of her family has been there for her so much. Noah walks in, "Hello." She grins, "Finally." He sits down, "Well let's go over your results." Reva sighs, "Noah I just can't.... I can't go through another year of this. Tell me I'm getting better. Tell me we got the answers we wanted." Noah smiles, "Well Reva I'm happy to say the last treatments have been going really well. Things are looking really good at this point. It'll be a few more weeks before we can confirm anything though." Reva stares, "Are you saying...." Noah shakes his head, "No. I'm not saying anything yet. But knowing how strong you are... I think we might be seeing you a lot less at this hospital and more around Springfield before the snow melts." An emotional Reva hugs him. The news she has been waiting for. PART TWO: Chamberlain Mansion: Dinah sits at the dinner table. Belinda and Anthony join her. Dinah smiles, "I hope you both are hungry." Dinah knows she should be more comfortable with her own children. Dinah clears her throat, "You know I was thinking of planning a vacation sometime soon. Just the three of us." Belinda shakes her head, "We have school." Dinah nods, "I know. I just mean like maybe on Spring Break. We could go out of town." Belinda shakes her head, "No." Dinah sighs, "Well think about it sweetie." Belinda is texting through dinner. Dinah looks at her, "Who are you messaging?" Belinda sighs, "Clarissa." Dinah smiles, "Oh tell her I said hi." Belinda stares at Dinah. After a few awkward moments Belinda finally goes back upstairs. Dinah begins to wonder if she'll ever get through to her. Carriage House: Blake is knocking on Clarissa's door. Clarissa shouts, "Go away!" Blake gets angry, "Clarissa open this door right now." Clarissa opens the door, "What?" Blake sighs, "Honey I know you're upset about everything that we have gone through." Clarissa nods, "Yeah!" Blake nods, "And you have a right to be-" Clarissa gets angry, "You're damn right I do. You lied to us! You kept secrets from us. Then you humiliated our whole family. At this point I don't know what to believe in anymore." Blake looks at her, "Look I know I've messed up. I've messed up a lot. But I can't take it back." Clarissa nods, "Exactly. So you know why I don't want to talk to you. Why Jason and Kevin don't visit as much now. Why Dinah can't stand you. Why this whole town hates you!" Clarissa slams the door in Blake's face. As much as Blake wants to punish Clarissa she can't. Blake feels like she let everyone down. Spaulding Mansion: Liz is getting very upset. Alan walks over to her, "Elizabeth, I thought by now you would understand that I'm doing what is best for you. I am putting my family first. Family always comes first." Liz laughs, "Family? Where are they? You won't allow Aunt Alex in the house, Alan Michael is gone. Daddy and Gus want nothing to do with you. And don't even get me started on the people who you chased out of our lives. You want to control all of us." Alan looks at her, "Elizabeth that is enough! You remember our deal. I could make things a lot worse for you and... him. Now I suggest you stick with the plans we made." She scoffs, "What choice do I have? You are above the law. I could try to run out those doors and I would be dragged right back. Call the police and you'd pay them to leave. And even if I did escape I know you'd just go after the people I love." Lorelei steps in, "Alan... why don't you just put her in the room and she can relax." Liz shakes her head, "I can't believe you allow him to treat me like this Mom. Why?" She sighs, "Honey we just want what is best for the family. Believe me, we do this because we love you. I hope you can see that." Alan walks Liz down the hall, "Now don't you want to go into the bedroom?" Liz nods, "Of course I do." Alan walks her over and unlocks the door, "Now don't try another one of your stunts Elizabeth." Liz walks inside. Alan locks the door behind her. Liz walks inside and smiles, "You always make me feel better." She walks over to the crib in the center of the room. A small black baby lies in there. She picks up the baby, "Mommy's here." Cedars: Noah is going over Reva's tests results. Reva smiles, "Well that all sounds good right? I mean this is what we've been hoping for." Noah nods, "Yes. You have come so far. It took a lot longer but it looks like we're about to win this battle." Reva sighs, "Just these last couple of weeks I've been so sick I thought maybe I was near death's door." He shakes his head, "No. Remember I told you it would seem to get worse before it got better. I can't promise anything-" She nods, "Well you're a doctor." He sighs, "But I think our hard work is about to pay off." Reva wipes a tear, "I am so... This is good news. I've hated this. I hate not being the strong one in my family. I feel like everyone is always keeping things from me to make me feel better." Noah sighs, "They just want you to be okay." She nods, "I know that. And I appreciate it. But I know this has been a rough year for some of them. And I feel like there is something that I need to know about." Noah nods, "Well when they find out..." She shakes her head, "No. I can't give them false hope. I can't tell them until I am 100 percent sure. We've had so many false hopes this year and a half. I just need to be sure before I get them excited." Noah puts his hand on Reva's. Lewis Enterprises: Marah walks over to her father. She looks at him, "Daddy. I know this probably scares you. But I have had a revelation. I know that I have to be mature and stable for this child's sake. I want what's best for my child." Josh smiles, "I'm glad to hear you say that." She hugs him, "Congratulations Grandpa." He laughs, "My first Grandchild. I have to say I'm not sure if I'm ready for that." Marah nods, "Well Mom has 2 grandchildren already so she should be ready when I tell her." Josh nods, "Oh you haven't told her yet?" Marah shakes her head, "I'm waiting for the right moment. I think it will make her very happy." He smiles, "I think so too." Annie grins, "Well thank you for sharing it with us Marah." Marah hugs Annie again, "You're welcome. But now I have to get to an appointment." Josh smiles, "Okay let us know how it goes Darlin'." She nods, "I will. Bye." Marah leaves. Annie sits with Josh, "Wow I didn't see that coming." Josh shakes his head, "After everything that happened... I just hope that my little girl is ready for all of this." They are both worried about Marah. Farmhouse: Cassie and Jeffrey sit at the table. Jeffrey looks at her, "Cassie..." She sighs, "So... Marah is pregnant. And you are the father of her baby? Am I hearing that right?" Jeffrey nods, "Yes." She looks down, "When did you guys um..." He sighs, "Shortly before everything fell a part. I felt so guilty about my feelings for you. But after that I realized I loved you. But apparently... we conceived a child." Cassie nods, "Marah must be pretty happy. She always wanted to remind me that I couldn't have children anymore." He looks at her, "Don't let Marah upset you." She looks at him, "You're going to have a baby." He nods, "Yes. But with Marah's mental state... I'm just worried about how everything is going to go." Cassie sighs, "Jeffrey, Marah is going to use this child to hold onto you. You are going to be tied to her now." He nods, "I know. This is the worst timing." Cassie sits back, "I guess the question is now: what does this mean for you and I?" Jeffrey and Cassie stare at each other.

Phillip nods, "Well if we want to be free of it we need to go in and talk to Beth." Harley shakes her head, "I bet you 20 bucks there will be more screaming then talking." Phillip nods, "Beth has changed a lot this past year." Harley shakes her head, "No. This is the Beth that we saw while you were gone all those years. The crazy woman who married and Alan and made life hell for everyone in town." He sighs, "It's almost like she's... never mind." They are let inside. Phillip sees her sitting in the living room. He sighs, "Hello Beth." She stands up, "Of course. You would bring her along for all of this. How are you Harley?" Harley smirks, "Fine Beth. How about yourself?" She smiles, "Never better." Phillip looks around, "Where is everyone?" She sighs, "Lizzie is at the office with Alan. James went back to school. Penelope is on a play date." Phillip sighs, "This house is pretty empty now." She scoffs, "Let's just get down to business Phillip." The three sit down. Teasers: Cyrus Foley walks in. It's been a long time since he was last in Springfield. A man walks up to him, "Mr. Foley?" Cyrus nods, "TJ? Nice to meet you." TJ grins, "Sorry about meeting here. It's just safe. Cops don't usually hang around. Plus one of my girlfriends works here." Cyrus laughs, "One of them. Are you Hugh Hefner?" TJ laughs, "Naw. I just got a lot of ladies who enjoy my company. They all understand. This one's wild." Cyrus smiles, "That's all nice mate. But let's get to business. You have access to the diamonds I have my eye on. I can get you some very good "products" from Australia." TJ nods, "I heard it's some good stuff. Let's step back here so we can chat and talk business." TJ and Cyrus go into the backroom. A lot of people are back there. TJ smiles, "These are my associates. Cyrus looks at all the needles lying around. TJ sighs, "Hey Babe! Come on I want you to meet someone." Cyrus looks around, "Your girlfriend coming?" TJ nods, "Oh yeah.

Mallet's House: Dinah walks up to the house. A house that was her mothers that was given to her and Mallet as a wedding present. Dinah knocks on the door. Mallet opens it, "Hello Dinah." Dinah sighs, "Can I come in?" Mallet nods, "Yeah. Anthony is upstairs he'll be down soon." Dinah walks in, "Well I'm surprised. I expected by now you'd have posters of swimsuit models and beer can pyramids everywhere." He sighs, "Does it make you feel better about yourself to believe that I'm some unfit parent?" Dinah just turns away. Soon Anthony walks down the stairs holding Maureen's hand. Maureen looks at her, "Hello Sis." Dinah nods, "Maureen." Anthony is very attached to her. Dinah looks at him, "Hey Buddy. You ready to go the Mommy's house?" Anthony is very quiet. After looking at Maureen he eventually walks with Dinah. Maureen sighs, "Sorry he wasn't ready yet. I was gonna drop him off on my way to work." Dinah nods, "Yeah well I want him now. Belinda will come by after school. So see ya." Dinah walks out with Anthony. Springfield High: Clarissa Marler is walking down the hallway. The Principal stops her, "Ms. Marler where are you off to?" Clarissa sighs, "I'm sorry I can't talk now. I really have to get to the bathroom." He shakes his head, "No you need to explain why you are in the hallway during class." She sighs, "Okay but you better call the janitor because we're about to have a big mess." He scoffs, "I'm not going to respond to your threats of urinating on the floor Ms. Marler." Clarissa shakes her head, "I'm having lady issues. So I need to..." The Principal gets uncomfortable, "I uh... Just get out of here Ms. Marler before... just go." Clarissa goes into the girls restroom. Belinda Marler-Mallet is sitting on the counter by the sink, "Finally what took you so long?" Clarissa sighs, "Sorry the principal caught me. Here's my lighter." Belinda takes it and lights up a cigarette, "You want one?" Clarissa shakes her head, "No thanks." Belinda scoffs, "I'm so pissed. My Mom is making me go to her house after school." Clarissa sighs, "Dinah loves you Belinda. She is just going through a lot right now."

Clarissa sits next to Belinda. Law Office: Jeffrey is working. He hears the door open. He hollers, "Mel is that you?" Marah walks in, "Hi Jeffery." Jeffrey stands up, "Damn it Marah. I thought you gave me your key to the office?" Marah sighs, "I had a key made. I needed to see you." Jeffrey sighs, "I'm going to call your father and he is going to come here and pick you up." Marah stops him, "Just listen to me Jeffrey." He looks at her, "I'm sorry Marah. But I'm with Cassie now. Cassie and I tried to stay a part but we love each other. We have always loved each other. I need you to accept that." Marah sighs, "Jeffrey I can give you something. Something that Cassie can't ever give you." He sighs, "Marah please. We've been over all of this.

I was just coming to let you know that Dr. Chase is on his way but I'm going to check a few things for him before he gets here..." Reva sits up, "Well good. Because I don't want to wait here any longer than I have to." Ashlee turns around, "I'll be right back." Roxie follows her. She goes out in the hall with her, "Ashlee..." Ashlee turns to her, "Don't talk to me. I had no idea you would be here with Reva today." Roxie sighs, "Listen. You hate me, I hate you. But let's try to be professional for Reva's sake."

Maureen walks over, "I know. We wouldn't have to hide things from everyone anymore." Mallet takes her hand, "We have the house to ourselves tonight." Maureen grins, "Well I might be working late. Marah is not working right now so Mindy is counting on me to run things at the store here. Eventually she might use one of my designs." Mallet smiles, "That's great."

It's none of her business how we end our marriage." He sighs, "For some reason I think you have been waiting for our marriage to end for a long time now." She sighs, "Just sign the papers Phillip. Let's end this now." Phillip looks at her, "What happened to you? This past year you have become unrecognizable. You've done things I never thought you would do. You've changed Beth."

Marina laughs, "I'm not a prostitute Cyrus!" He shakes his head, "What the hell happened to you?" She sighs, "Don't give me this speech okay? I've heard it enough from everyone else in Springfield." Cyrus is confused, "Marina you were a detective for the Springfield Police Department. Now you're a stripper, you're doing drugs, hooking up with losers like TJ. What the hell?" She sighs, "A lot has changed Cyrus." Cyrus shakes his head, "What about your son?" Marina backs away, "Don't bring him up to me! Don't you dare! My son is dead and I don't want to talk about him!"

And Harley can marry all of my sons twice and she will never be a Spaulding. Remember that." Liz scoffs, "May I go to bed now please?" Alan takes her hand, "Elizabeth. I know you may not like me much right now. And it's been a rough year for you. But I hope you realize that everything I'm doing is for your own good."

David sighs, "I know we went through a lot when it comes to Davey. So I'm just..." She stops him, "Let's not. It's all in the past. We are a happy family now. No one can take that away from us.

But I love you. Call me when you get this okay? I hope you had a fun night." Dinah hangs up. Dinah has one of the biggest houses in Springfield. She has a lots of money. Her career is on the rise. But reflecting on her year she begins to wonder if it was all worth it. Bauer Home: Rick, Mel, and Michelle are all sitting around the kitchen. Michelle smiles, "What a great night." Mel grins, "Yes. I think we have a lot to look forward to this year." Rick nods, "Yeah we got the Masquerade Ball next month. Then the kids all go on their wild Spring Break." Mel laughs, "That should be interesting. Then we got the Bauer Barbecue. It's gonna be even better this year." Michelle laughs, "Before you know it the holiday's will come around. Those are always the best." Rick nods, "And don't forget the weddings, parties, the events, and every other crazy thing that happens in this town." Mel smiles, "I think 2011 is going to be a big year for Springfield. I just got a feeling." Michelle nods, "I think your right about that one." Rick makes a toast, "To 2011." Mel raises her glass, "To 2011." Michelle smiles, "2011." They toast the new year. Springfield Enters 2011! PREVIEWS: Roxie runs into Ashlee Phillip and Harley visit Beth Cyrus returns to town Mallet and Dinah deal with the kids Marah drops a bombshell on Jeffrey.

LOL! Well you may not have noticed but Springfield just entered the year 2011!!! So there is a lot that readers missed. The big twist is that FTL is taking place in Springfield one year from now. Glad you liked it!

Glad I finally got to read this one! Whoa really good begining with Bobbie/Nate/Ava. Ooh Alley drops a bombshell. Very good episode. When is the next one?

Can't wait for it to come back! But this gives me time to catch up. As I remember TGL was very good.

It's New Year's Eve In Springfield... Beacon: Josh Lewis stands before the crowded room. Josh grins, "Can I have everyone's attention please? Thank you all for being here this evening. Thank you to the Beacon for allowing us to host here this year. It's been a crazy year. Lewis Enterprises has truly succeeded far greater than I think anyone expected. And we thank you all for your great support." The room applauds. Ava walks up, "As co owner of the Beacon Hotel, I would love to thank Lewis Enterprises for choosing us to celebrate the end of a successful year. Of course I am biased as soon I will be Mrs. Shayne Lewis." She holds up her hand showing off her engagement ring as the room applauds. Shayne walks up and kisses her, "I love you." Josh takes the attention back, "I know my son owes a lot of his success to his lovely lady. And I too would like to thank my special woman who help us get where we are now. Come on up here sweetheart." Everyone cheers as she enters the stage. Josh gives his love a kiss. She is Annie Dutton and she smiles and waves while at Josh's side. Towers: Alan stands up, "Everyone?" All eyes turn to Alan. Alan looks at them, "I would like to thank you all for your support this year. I know it's been rough to say the least. But I assure you, Spaulding Enterprises is not going to fall. We are going to take on the new year as a challenge. And we will not disappoint." Liz stands by her grandfathers side. After the crowd turns away Liz steps out onto the balcony. Remy is hiding out there. Liz walks towards him, "Sorry I got caught up in there." Remy smiles at her, "I would wait a million years for you." She walks over to him and kisses him. Inside Alan looks around. He walks over to Beth, "Where is Elizabeth?" She sighs, "Oh Alan. Can't you just leave Lizzie alone? It's bad enough you keep her locked up in the house. Let her take a break." Alan shakes his head, "Where's your husband?" She sighs, "He is with you-know-who." Alan is angry, "Phillip has no idea what he is giving up." Alan and her go talk to the guest. Company: Phillip walks back into the kitchen. He grins, "Well something to look forward to. My resolution is to finally get my divorce from Beth. Officially." Harley smiles, "That's great! Finally it'll all be over." Phillip grins, "Then we can finally really be together." Harley kisses him, "We have gone through so much. It's time we get the happiness we deserve." Many people are sitting around Company. Buzz walks to the counter, "It has been one hell of a year. I'm just ready for a new year. And new changes. Starting with you getting a girl." He looks a Coop. Coop sighs, "Dad we've been over this. I'm focusing on my career now." Buzz shakes his head, "Ever since things fell a part with Stephanie you've been single. Come on people are starting to talk." Coop laughs, "Dad... I just have other things." Lucy walks over, "Dad. Stop bothering Coop. Listen, I'm gonna head out now. David's picking me up." Buzz sighs, "What? Now? It's not even midnight." She bends down, "I know but I have to get this guy home." She picks up her little boy." Buzz grins, "Aww how is little Davey?" She smiles, "He's sleepy. He needs to get home. Maybe next year he'll stay up for the celebration." The Coopers all smile at the little guy. WSPR: Blake smiles into the camera. She begins, "Hello everyone. We're counting down Springfield. I'm Blake Marler host of 'Light Talk'-" Dinah interrupts her, "Co-host." Blake laughs, "Oh I'm sorry. Co-host, with my lovely co-host Dinah Marler." Dinah nods, "Yes and we are very excited to ring in the new year. So keep your TV's on WSPR. We'll be right back." They are off. Blake turns to Dinah, "Wow real nice taking my line at the end." Dinah shakes her head, "Oh please, miss host! That was on purpose. Either that or your just a crappy co-host. Which is why they hired me to work with you and add some fun to the show." Blake scoffs, "Please. We both know how you got this job. Don't act like you earned it." Dinah laughs, "Yeah I'm really proud to earn a job where I get to sit next to the town tramp." Blake grins, "Oh and I'm so lucky to work with the psycho bitch of Springfield." The director looks at them, "Ladies, get ready." Blake and Dinah put their smiles back on. Main Street: Michelle is walking with Hope. Hope is texting on her new cell phone. Michelle sighs, "Honey remember what we talked about." Hope doesn't respond. Michelle sighs, "Well at least text your brother and remind him what time to be home after the party." Rick walks up behind her, "Stressful I know. I can't even enjoy myself knowing Jude and Leah are both out." Michelle sighs, "Since when did we become the worried parents?' He laughs, "My wife is a little more calm then I am. Come on sweetheart." Mel walks up pushing a stroller, "Hey guys." Michelle smiles, "Look at my little nephew. He's getting so big. Hey little Freddie. Hi." Rick grins, "Yeah. I think this guy is keeping me young." Mel laughs, "Good luck with that one." Michelle smiles, "You ready for the new year little guy? I sure am." The Bauers have had a good year. Caliente: Jesse and Drew are having great success with their club tonight. Drew grins, "This place is doing great." He smiles, "We make a great team." Drew nods, "We sure do. Hey I gotta go check on my man. I'll talk to you in a little bit." Drew walks down the steps. Gus is standing there with a drink, "What took you so long?" She smiles, "Shut up." The two hold hands. Across the club Rocky Cooper is on the phone, "Yeah.... I know I wish we could be together too..... ok, love you too. Bye." Rocky hangs up. He turns around and is very surprised. Kevin is standing a few feet away, "Hi." Out on the dance floor. Sam is with his girlfriend Susan. Susan smiles, "Thank you for taking me out but you know I'm not comfortable in places like this." He sighs, "I know but I figured you needed to have some fun. Fun! Remember that. Now you did very good on your finals. So you deserve to have some fun before you start classes again." Susan kisses him. Sam stops, "Damn it." Susan is confused, "What?" They turn around. Stephanie walks up to them, "Wow. Of course you two are here." The three are very uncomfortable. PART TWO: WSPR: Dinah is getting her make up touched up. Blake walks over to her, "It's almost time for the countdown." Dinah sighs, "I'm well aware Blake." Blake sighs, "Dinah, you know what. It's a new year. A new start. We are family and-" Dinah stops her, "No. After everything that has happened this year... you destroyed our family. Everything is ruined." The camera aims at them. They get their cue. Blake smiles, "The time is here Springfield!" Dinah grins, "Let's countdown together!" Company: Buzz shouts, "Everyone! Look at the TV. Blake and Dinah are about to do the countdown." Harley looks at Phillip, "I'm ready. I'm ready for the happiest year of our lives to begin." Phillip nods, "All I want is for us to get everything we've ever wanted no matter what." The two kiss. Caliente: Jesse talks into his microphone, "Everyone let's count it down!" Rocky looks at Kevin, "Wow." Kevin laughs, "Together on New Year's eve." Rocky sighs, "Again." Gus and Drew get ready to kiss. Everyone is counting. However Sam is trying to calm things down with the girls. Stephanie looks at Susan, "Of course Samuel would bring his criminal girlfriend." Susan shakes her head, "Shut up Stephanie because I'm not in the mood for your crap today." Stephanie laughs, "Keep in mind I'm a cop. You're worst nightmare." Susan grabs her purse, "I'm leaving." Stephanie laughs, "Come on. Like you could ever really change. You're still a trashy whore." Susan jumps at her, "You stupid bitch!" Sam tries to keep the two from fighting but is having trouble. Main Street: Rick looks at Mel. She smiles, "What?" He takes her hand, "I'm so happy that we found our way back to each other. This has been an amazing year. And I'm sad to see it end." The two kiss. Michelle sits on the bench. Hope has fallen asleep in her lap. Michelle isn't sure what to hope for in the new year. Towers: Liz walks back in to get her purse. Alan stops her, "Where have you been Elizabeth?" Liz sighs, "I was getting some air." Alan takes her by the arm, "Come on now. Your mother has been looking for you. It's time for the new year. Remy is sneaking out. On his way out he sees Blake on the TV. He has a quick flashback to the first time they ever made love. Remy sighs, "Happy anniversary Blake." He then gets in the elevator. Beacon: Cassie is with Ava. Cassie looks at her, "Things are going well. We make a great team." Ava smiles, "I think so too. Our Hotel is only going to get better." Jeffrey walks over, "Will you excuse us Ava?" Jeffrey takes Cassie aside, "I don't want to miss our kiss at New Year." Cassie sighs, "Jeffrey after everything we've been through. I just need this year to be better. That's all I need." Jeffrey kisses Cassie. Josh is with Annie. Annie smiles, "Josh I couldn't have asked for a better year." Josh laughs, "Well maybe you should. Because I want things to keep getting better and better for us." Annie sighs, "I know probably feel guilty because of..." Josh nods, "Let's not talk about that right now. Just not right now." Annie kisses Josh. Reva Bend: Marah is sitting on the couch. Roxie is next to her, "Well... at least it's almost over. A year of being the most hated woman in Springfield." Marah sighs, "Which one of us are you talking about?" Roxie puts her arm around her, "I know honey. But you know what, Jeffrey and Cassie are not the victims here, you are." Marah smiles, "Thanks. He I have to use the bathroom. I'll be right back." Roxie sighs, "You'll miss the countdown." Marah shuts the door, "I'll be quick." Roxie goes into the bedroom. On the bed, an old looking woman lays down breathing loud. She is wearing a cap over her bald head. Roxie smiles, "Hey sis. It's almost the new year." Reva smiles, "Tell Marah that I'm sleeping. I don't want her to see me like this. It's bad enough she wouldn't go out tonight." Roxie sighs, "Well this year you're gonna finally beat this cancer. I just know it." Roxie and Reva hold hands as they count the final seconds. Marah is waiting for a countdown of her own. She sits on the tub waiting. A box for a pregnancy test lays on the floor. 3... 2.... 1!!!! Springfield enters the New Year..... 2011!!!! PREVIEWS: Springfield gets ready for the new year!

So glad to be back here. WOW I understand though ML. I'm sure Tara is great. I can't wait to catch up more on STEAM.

I have a lot to catch up on! Very good opening scene. Worried about Kevin. Loved the scenes with Kiko and Ria but I hope she gets real medical attention. Whoa! Loved the Kiko Lynn scenes. Then Mona!!! I'm loving this Apple and Mona thing. Whoa great ending!!!!

FTL plans to post an episode that was written before the hiatus. A very important episode that must be posted before the relaunch of the series. Episode 194.

I'm glad you enjoy it! The first new episode will be posted very soon.

For very personal reasons FTL was put on a very immidiant hiatus. As the writer I've struggled in finding a way to bring it back. My whole timeline was thrown off. FINALLY I feel like i've found the perfect way. As crazy as it will be, I think I've found a way to hook people and actually make it understandable. I'm very excited. Later this week there will be more explanation. Thank you all for being patient. Sorry that the light faded for a bit, but put on your sunglasses because the light is about to come back!

Right now Susan and Harley are taking time a part. But they will talk eventually. Well maybe Olivia and Reva's rivarly will be carried on to the daughters still. We'll see some more long term couples. Mallet and Dinah were pretty happy for a while. Marina is only going to get worse!!! Lorelei is Beth's alter ego.

G has a lot to think about. Jeffrey and Marah are one of the classic couples that bring out the WORST in each other. Noah and Reva will lean on each other as friends. Not sure if they will go romantic. I'm not going to force it. Mel has a lot to learn about herself and her relationships. Olivia's going to be sharing scenes with a lot of men. But it's gonna be a trip down memory lane sorta. I don't want to ruin what happens with Rocky and Kevin but keep your eye on them. Rocky returns soon and I think readers will like the story.

I'm glad you like the opening lines. But sometimes they take a while. lol We are going to see so many layers of Annie. So many plans for G. Dinah is reverting to old behavior. Jeffrey and Marah... let's just say that relationship isn't going in a good direction. Josh and Annie do have a story coming up. But we'll have to wait and see if they are ready to be romantic together again. Alan and Blake's plans will have huge effects on Springfield. Thanks for reading!

I like how we seem to be seeing a more in depth side to Sister Patterson. Uh-oh will Alexis go nuts like her sister? Wow the Kevin and Dre scenes were really intense. I wonder what Ty's got up his sleeve. Ooh I'm liking Apple and really interested in where this goes. Who is she? I'm wondering myself. Wow! Lauren needs to put her baby first. The whole faked death is interesting but I'm also interested in the fetal alcohol syndrome. That happens accidently a lot. Great storytelling in this episode. Always leaves off making you want more.

Here you go my friend:

I decided to focus on more romance now that the business is settling down for a bit. Ava's still a bitch! Bill and Olivia... you'll have to see. Harley is really messed up right now. She'll get over it eventually. But she is using Cyrus to get over everything. SO MUCH coming up in the Bill/Michelle/Jesse story!! Blake and Alan! A big twists and more to come.

Link:

Episode 183 is on page 2 now.

LOL! Maybe not everyone. Yep Annie has built quite the empire. But she is balancing to many allies. Bill left a note but it got lost. Both of those relationships that Michelle has are going to be difficult. But neither will compare to what she ahd with Danny. Thanks!!!!

It all seemed to happen really fast in the beginning. I had a feeling Mona would get out of it. Really emotinal stuff with LaDonna WOW! Big stuff with Ashley's diary! I wonder where this is going. I liked how we got to read the diary entries with Alexis. LOL! Patti tells it like it is. Worried about Ria. Good episode. I'm excited to see where everything is going.
