    Sometimes it's hard to do the right thing in Springfield...



    Motel:


    Lucy and David are with Davey.
    They've been hiding out for a while.
    Lucy looks at him, "Okay. How much trouble are we in right now exactly? Just tell me."
    David sighs, "Well obviously no one has informed the police. So it's not to late to turn back now."
    Lucy looks at him, "David, are you serious? This is our son we are talking about."
    David shakes his head, "Lucy, he is Marina's son."
    Lucy shakes her head, "How dare you! I'm sorry but I can't just fall out of of love with my child like you can."
    He scoffs, "You think I am fine with this? I love that little boy! We taught him to walk, and his first words, and we sang to him, we have pictures of all of us as a family everywhere. This is ripping my heart out, but we have to do the right thing."
    She sighs, "Then why did you come with me? I ran out of Company and you chased after me. You could have stayed behind and then Davey and I could have gone alone."
    He stands up, "Really? Am I not important to you at all? Because you are very important to me."
    Lucy nods, "Well Davey is everything to us. We never even talked about marriage before him. Then we found ourselves married and raising him. If he goes then what will happen to us? What possible reason could we have for staying together?"
    David can't believe she is saying this to him.



    Springfield High:


    Belinda and Clarissa are walking.
    Belinda turns to her, "Are you going to find Micky today?"
    Clarissa nods, "I have to. I have to tell him what's up. He hasn't been texting me back though."
    Belinda nods, "Well you have a lot of options. You need to decide what to do soon."
    Clarissa sighs, "I know."

    RJ Winslow walks over, "Hey guys."
    Clarissa looks at her cousin, "Hey RJ."
    He looks at them, "So what's up?"
    Clarissa sighs, "Have you seen Micky anywhere? I need to talk to him about a few things."
    RJ shakes his head, "I think he was at the big party last night. He might still be home sleeping it off."
    Belinda fake smiles, "So RJ, how's student council going?"
    RJ laughs, "Just great Belinda, but for some reason I don't think you really care."
    She nods, "Well it's all pretty lame. But if you'll excuse us, Clarissa and I have things to take care of."
    Clarissa and Belinda walk downstairs.
    Across the hall they see Micky.
    Clarissa isn't sure if she's ready for this.


    Mall:


    Jeffrey is doing some shopping.
    Cassie sees him, "Hi."
    He turns to her, "Hi, how have you been?"
    She sighs, "Okay. Um... I didn't get to talk to you much at Reva's the other day."
    He nods, "I know. I didn't mean for everything to happen the way it did. I'm sorry."
    She shakes her head, "Don't be."
    He nods, "It was completely disrespectful to you. You really did a nice thing for Marah."
    She sighs, "I just want you and your baby to be happy together. That is all I want for you."
    He smiles, "Thank you Cassie. I just wish I could have all of it you know? Including you."
    She shakes her head, "Jeffrey..."
    Jeffrey sighs, "Cassie I know that we will probably never get our chance to be back together. But I want you to know, I do love you. But I just want you to be happy."
    She sighs, "Let's not do this. Because if we do this... I'm going to start to regret the decision I made. And I just can't deal with that. I think we both need to move on."
    Jeffrey nods, "Are you sure we can do that?"
    She shakes her head, "We don't have much of a choice now do we?"
    Jeffrey and Cassie part ways.

    Motel:
    Lucy is getting her stuff together.
    Davey is sitting with David.
    Lucy sighs, "I don't care. We can't waste anymore time. We just have to go now. Before the call the police. We can go to Greece I have family there who will help us."
    David sighs, "Your family! Marina is your family, the cops are most of your family. Why can't you just stop and accept that Davey might belong with his biological mother?"
    Lucy grabs little Davey, "Come on!"
    Davey pulls away, "No!"
    He jumps back with David.
    David sighs, "These past few weeks you've been scaring the hell out of him. Maybe it's just best for us to face the music and do what is best for this little boy."
    Lucy shakes her head, "No! After a year with us he won't want to be with anyone else. We are his family!"
    Davey is crying.
    David gets up, "I'll go get his toys. They usually calm him down and then we'll talk."
    David goes into the closet to get some stuff.
    Lucy grabs little Davey and runs out the door.
    She is running to the car when she bumps into Cyrus.




    Cedars:


    Rick is sitting with Doris.
    Doris sighs, "So you have no idea when Ashlee is going to wake up? Not even at all?"
    He shakes his head, "No. I'm sorry Doris but there is no way of knowing. All we can do is wait."
    She sighs, "I just want my little girl taken care of."
    He nods, "I promise you she is and will be. Everyone loves her here. And my family adores Ashlee, she has become an honorary Bauer over the years. We're very happy to have had her in our lives."
    Doris gets up to go see Ashlee.
    Rick walks down the hall.

    Roxie walks up to him, "Rick."
    He scoffs, "Roxie this is not a good time."
    Roxie sighs, "I know! But I just need to know what is going on with Ashlee right now."
    He turns to her, "Why? I don't get why all of the sudden you care about her. You had so much hate towards that poor girl. You tried to ruin her life and ended up ruining your own."
    Roxie nods, "I've made my mistakes and I know that. And I am so sorry Rick. But I just feel like there has to be something we can do for Ashlee. Get a specialist."
    Rick sighs, "We are doing everything we can."
    Roxie nods, "But Rick-"
    He stops her, "Why? I don't get it Roxie. What has changed? Why do you suddenly care so much about Ashlee Wolfe?"
    Roxie isn't ready to tell that Ashlee is her daughter.



    Cross Creek:


    Shayne walks inside.
    He hollers, "Anyone home?"
    Ava walks downstairs, "What are you doing here?"
    He smiles, "I had some time to kill. So I thought I would surprise you at home."
    She kisses him, "Well this was a very pleasant surprise. And very good timing, because we're alone."
    He kisses her neck, "Now what could we possibly do when we are all alone in our home?"
    Ava starts to unbutton his shirt, "You always have the best timing."
    He laughs, "Thanks."
    She smiles, "I mean, I was so stressed today, this is exactly what I was needing."
    He kisses her, "It's just more of our destiny proving itself to us. It's what brought us together."
    Ava backs up, "I don't deserve you."
    He takes her hand, "Enough of that. You are the most smart, beautiful, strong woman I have ever known. And I am so lucky that I have you in my life and to have you as my soon to be wife."
    Shayne kisses her.
    He starts to unzip her dress from behind.
    Ava can't help but feel guilty.

    PART TWO:

    Springfield High:
    Clarissa is under the staircase with Mickey.
    She wants to be alone.
    Mickey is texting while he talks to her, "What's up?"
    She sighs, "We need to talk."
    He nods, "Yeah."
    She puts her hand over his phone, "It's important."
    He sighs, "Listen Clarissa... you are really starting to get clingy and we promised we wouldn't do that."
    Clarissa shakes her head, "It's more than that. I have something really serious to tell you."
    He nods, "Okay, tell me."
    She looks at him, "Mickey I'm pregnant."
    His mouth drops, "What?"
    She nods, "I know it's a lot to deal with. But I think if we just talk then we can decide what to do and when to tell people."
    He sighs, "Well what does this have to do with me?"
    She stares at him, "What?"
    He nods, "Well how can you be completely sure that I am the father? We haven't done a DNA test."
    She scoffs, "You are the only guy I've ever been with."
    He shakes his head, "That's what all girls say."
    She looks at him, "Why are you acting like this?"
    He looks around, "Listen, I don't need you spreading rumors about me until we have proof. So for now you need to keep your mouth shut. Who else knows besides me?"
    Clarissa sighs, "Just Belinda, and she's not telling anyone."
    Mickey scoffs, "I can't believe you did this to me."
    She can't believe he's acting like this.
    Mickey walks away.

    Cross Creek:
    Ava and Shayne lay on the floor in front of the fireplace.
    The two have finished making love.
    Shayne fell asleep.
    Ava slowly gets up so not to wake him.
    She looks at him.
    She enjoys watching him sleep.
    She walks over to the mantle.
    A picture of Baby HB sits on there.
    She takes it and stares at it.
    She knows he must be getting so big.
    She hasn't seen him in a long time.
    Ava knows a part of that is her fault.
    All of the horrible things she did to Bill, Olivia, Marah, Michelle, and everyone else.
    Ava is willing to do whatever she has to do in order to bring her son home to her.
    Even if it means making deals with a Spaulding.
    A hurting the first guy who she really felt loved her for who she was.
    Ava looks at her sleeping fiance, "Shayne... I'm sorry I can't be the person that you deserve. I hope you understand one day."
    Ava just sits and watches him sleep a little longer.

    Motel:
    David runs out.
    He sees Cyrus standing in front of Lucy and Davey.
    He walks out, "Lucy it's over."
    Cyrus nods, "Listen to your husband Lucy. Your family is willing to help make things easier for you. But you need to give me Daniel right now. Before we get more people involved."
    Lucy shakes her head, "You aren't a cop. I don't have to listen to you Cyrus Foley."

    Harley and Rocky walk over.
    Harley looks at her sister, "Lucy we are trying to keep you out of trouble. But give us Marina's son."
    Lucy shakes her head, "No. This is my son now."
    David picks up the little boy, "Lucy he is scared."
    Lucy looks at her husband, "Because of them. Now give him to me."
    David backs away, "Calm down."
    Lucy grabs at Davey, "Give me my son!"
    Davey starts crying.
    Harley runs over and pulls back Lucy.
    David looks at Cyrus and Rocky, "A couple of years ago I pulled Marina out of the burning house. I never forgave myself for not being able to save her son. So maybe that's why I tracked him down and took care of him. But somewhere along the line.... it doesn't matter. It's time for Marina to finally get her little boy back."
    Lucy struggles to pull away from Harley.


    Beacon:

    Cassie is in her office.
    RJ walks in, "Hey Mom."
    She smiles, "Hi Honey. How was school?"
    He sighs, "It was school. How's work going?"
    She sighs, "Not to bad. Hey I was thinking about planning another trip to San Cristobal soon. We can visit Will and Alonzo. And I can get some mother/son bonding time."
    RJ nods, "That'd be cool."
    She grins, "Great, we'll just check our schedules and find a good time. Who knows maybe we'll stay longer."
    He sits down, "Is this about Marah and Jeffrey's wedding?"
    She looks at him, "What do you mean?"
    He sighs, "Are you looking for an excuse to miss the wedding? If we aren't in town."
    She shakes her head, "I just want to see your brother. I don't get to see him a whole lot. But Alonzo says he's doing so well."
    RJ shakes his head, "Mom, it's okay. After everything Marah has done, I don't want to go to the wedding either. Besides everyone knows that Jeffrey loves you, not Marah."
    Cassie sighs, "Jeffrey deserves to have a family. That baby deserves to have both of his parents."
    RJ nods, "The life you always wanted for me."
    She sighs, "Yes."
    He looks down, "I'm not trying to upset you right now. But if it's worth it you need to fight for him. Just like Tammy did for her love."
    Cassie always gets emotional when people mention Tammy.

    Cedars:
    Rick stands with Roxie.
    Roxie looks at him, "Maybe It sounds crazy to you. But I am actually trying to help Ashlee."
    He sighs, "What do you plan on doing?"
    She nods, "I have money now I can help find a doctor."
    He nods, "We've been through the doctors."
    Roxie looks at him, "What about your cousin?"
    Rick is confused, "Johnny?"
    Roxie nods, "He's a doctor now and he has had success with cases like these, he could help."
    Rick shakes his head, "Johnny doesn't ever come back to Springfield. He couldn't even come back when Michelle was in a coma. Johnny has to many other things to worry about."
    Roxie sighs, "But this is important."
    He nods, "I get it. Okay, you feel guilty because of the way you treated Ashlee. Maybe that reminds me that you're human."
    She nods, "Yes. and Humans makes mistakes."
    He sighs, "I'm sorry but there is nothing you can do for her now. And Johnny Bauer is not coming back to Springfield."
    Rick walks away.
    Roxie knows she has to do something to help Ashlee.

    Motel:
    Lucy looks at Harley, "You have to let me say goodbye at least."
    Harley shakes her head, "I'm sorry, but we can't trust you now. I'm sorry Lucy. We have to take him right to Marina."
    Lucy shakes her head, "No! Marina isn't ready to be a mother."
    Harley sighs, "She quit the drugs, she quit the job at the strip club. She is ready for this."
    Lucy scoffs, "No! Listen I know you think I'm the bad guy. But that's not the way it happened."
    Lucy turns to David.
    Davey isn't with him.
    Lucy watches Rocky walk away with him.
    Lucy runs after them.
    Harley grabs her, "No."
    Lucy shouts, "No! I'm his mother! I never wanted children before but now I feed him, I play with him, I go tell him bed stories at night. And he likes to pick flowers from our garden and give them to me. David! David taught him to walk and his first words. I know it's not right but you can't do this because we love him and we're a family!"
    A very sad Rocky gets in the car with Cyrus.
    They start to drive away.
    Lucy screams, "Rocky please stop! Oh God! Oh God! No!"
    Harley and David hold her back.
    She cries, "No! There taking my Davey!!! No!!!!!!"
    Lucy falls to the ground screaming.
    An emotional David holds his wife.

    People have to face the truth in Springfield...



    Farmhouse:



    Jeffrey walks inside.
    Cassie walks over, "Hey."
    Jeffrey looks around, "Where is she?"
    Cassie sighs, "I put her in the bedroom. She's sleeping. Stress isn't good for the baby."
    He shakes his head, "I can't believe this. Marah... she wasn't like this. She didn't' do these kinds of things before me."
    She sighs, "Jeffrey you can not blame yourself for all the things that Marah does."
    He sits down, "I hate this. I hate feeling guilty all the time. I hate having to go everyday worrying about Marah and where she is and if the baby is going to be okay today. And it's never going to change, Marah is not going to change on her own."
    Cassie nods, "That's what I've been telling you."
    He turns to her, "You were right. I didn't want to believe you. I wanted to believe that I could make everything better and I could just make things less complicated."
    Cassie sits by him, "I think you can Jeffrey. It just might not be what we were hoping for."
    He shakes his head, "Cassie..."
    She looks at him, "It's probably going to happen eventually. We should just end things before we get even more attached to this."
    Jeffrey sighs, "But I love you."
    She puts her hand on his face, "I know. I love you too."
    Cassie hugs Jeffrey.



    Teasers:


    Marina is backstage looking through papers.
    She can't believe what she is seeing.
    She shakes her head, "Oh my God! It can't be. Daniel... My Baby Daniel is alive?"
    She keeps flipping through the papers.
    Marina's trying to make sense of it all.
    She sighs, "Oh Cyrus. Cyrus what the hell is going on? Why wouldn't you tell me this?"
    TJ walks over, "What the hell?"
    She turns around, "Hey."
    He scoffs, "You need to be on stage in five minutes. Sugar is finishing up. You get ready."
    She shakes her head, "I'm not going out there. I have to take care of a few things."
    He grabs her arm, "Who the hell do you think you're talking to? Now you go out there and do your job!"
    She rips her arm away.
    He goes to grab her again.
    Marina grabs his arm and flips him around.
    She looks at him, "We are done! I don't ever want to see you ever again. You hear me?"
    Marina puts her coat on and leaves.



    Outskirts:


    Lucy is sitting at the bar.
    She needed to get out while David and Davey were sleeping.
    She is trying to think of what to do.
    Michelle Bauer walks in and sit by her, "Lucy, how have you been?"
    Lucy turns to her, "Hey... Oh I've been fine. Thanks Michelle."
    Michelle nods, "Yeah I had a long day at work. I always see the doctors on TV go to the bar after work so I thought I'd see what it was like you know? Not bad."
    Michelle laughs at her own joke.
    Lucy clearly isn't paying attention.
    Michelle looks at her, "You okay?"
    Lucy sighs, "Uh... I'm just tired."
    Michelle nods, "Well your a Mom now. Your priorities change from normal things to trying to get your kids to eat vegetables."
    Lucy nods, "Lucky for me Davey seems to like carrots."
    Michelle smiles, "That's funny. So do Robbie and Hope. But Danny loved carrots to so I guess-"
    Lucy knocks her glass over.
    Michelle looks at her, "You okay?"
    Lucy cleans up her mess.
    Michelle gives her a hand.
    Michelle looks at her, "Oh I've been meaning to ask you, how's Marina been doing?"
    Lucy stares at Michelle.



    Beacon:


    Eden is staying in the room Gus got her.
    Gus walks in, "Hey."
    She runs over, "Did you see him? How is he?"
    Gus sighs, "He is being difficult. He refuses to sign the papers until he gets what he wants."
    Eden is confused, "What does he want?"
    Gus sighs, "You. He wants to see you."
    She nods, "What do you think I should do?"
    He shakes his head, "Eden you can't go and see Coop. We'll find a way to get him to sign."
    She looks at Gus, "But what would it hurt? I mean we could find a way for me to see Coop."
    He shakes his head, "No Eden. I know you, you're going to see him and you're going to think that you are in love with him and you will be putting your whole life in danger."
    She sighs, "Nicky it's been years!"
    He nods, "I know that. But Vinnie Salerno is still alive. He still has connections outside of prison. He put a hit out on you once. He will do it again."
    Eden looks at him, "Maybe we can get the Santos guys to help us?"
    Gus shakes his head, "Honey, Tony and Danny are dead."
    Eden sits down, "Oh God."
    He sighs, "I'm sorry. But a lot has changed. But the one thing that's the same is it's still not safe for you."
    Eden has such a desire to stay in town.



    Road:


    Clarissa and Belinda are walking.
    Clarissa is frustrated, "I can't believe those bitches left us at the gas station."
    Belinda shakes her head, "We'll get them back don't worry. I can't believe they did that."
    Clarissa nods, "The second our fake ID's didn't work they just drove off and left us."
    Belinda looks at her, "Is Micky picking up?"
    Clarissa shakes her head, "No. He said he had to stay home because he was grounded but I figured he could sneak out and pick us up. He's not answering though."
    They see a car coming.
    Belinda waves her hands, "Hey!"
    The car starts to stop.
    Belinda turns to Clarissa, "Looks like a guy driver. We might have to do stuff for him."
    Clarissa turns to her, "What?"
    Belinda laughs, "Oh my God! I'm kidding. I bet you would have."
    The girls go up to the car.
    Belinda looks at the driver, "Look who it is!"
    Rafe Spaulding sits in the driver's seat.




    Towers:


    Roxie is in the elevator.
    She goes to the very top of the building.
    She knows what she has to do to find her son.
    She grabs the keys she stole from the janitor earlier that day.
    Roxie unlocks the door to the roof.

    Ashlee comes running down, "I knew it! I knew you did this to me! I almost died out there."
    Roxie scoffs, "It's not that cold Ashlee."
    Ashlee shakes her head, "I was supposed to go get my mother from the prison today."
    Roxie nods, "I know."
    Ashlee sees the blood on Roxie's clothes.
    She gasps, "Oh my God!"
    Roxie shakes her head, "It's not what you think Ashlee so just calm down for a minute."
    Ashlee shakes her, "What did you do Roxie? What did you do to her? Where is Doris?"
    Roxie sighs, "Relax!"
    Ashlee runs to the elevator.
    Roxie runs after her, "Wait!"
    Ashlee runs to the staircase to get away from her.

    PART TWO:

    Beacon:
    Gus and Eden are sitting in the room.
    Eden doesn't know what to say, "So... how did Danny and Tony die? Was it mob related?"
    Gus shakes his head, "Tony fell off a cliff. Danny died in a car accident. A while ago."
    Eden wipes a tear, "Anyone else die that I haven't been told of yet? Something I should prepare for?"
    He turns to her, "Listen, this is one of the many reasons why you shouldn't be here."
    She scoffs, "I didn't even know they died. You could have died and I would never have known!"
    Gus shakes his head, "Jeffrey would have contacted you and let you know what happened."
    She gets up, "Oh that's great. What a phone call from Jeffrey O'Neill to find out my brother died. It's not like I could go to the funeral. What about everyone else? You are all I have left. If something happens to you then what is there left of me?"
    Gus hugs her, "I'm sorry. I have missed you so much. The Spauldings are not my family the way that you are."
    She sighs, "I want to meet Rafe and Angela. I want to see Harley, Marah, Marina, I want to see everyone."
    He nods, "I know you do."
    Gus has no idea how to help his sister.

    Road:
    Rafe looks at the two of them.
    Belinda smiles, "Rafe how have you been?"
    He sighs, "Fine. You've grown up quite a bit."
    She nods, "Yep. Do you know Clarissa?"
    Clarissa kind of stares at Rafe.
    He looks at her, "Oh yeah. Blake's daughter. How is that mother of your's Clarissa-"
    Belinda stops him, "Hey. Don't blame her for her Mom's mistakes. Now can you give us a lift?"
    Rafe sighs, "Hop in."
    Belinda and Clarissa get in.
    Clarissa looks at Belinda, "I'm sleeping at your house right? Because that's what I told my Mom."
    Belinda nods, "Yeah that's cool."
    Rafe starts driving.
    Belinda looks at him, "You know where my house is right?"
    He nods, "Yeah it's close to Harley's house."
    Clarissa and Belinda feel very lucky he picked them up.
    Belinda has a slight attraction to Rafe.
    Clarissa is somewhat afraid of him.

    Teasers:
    Marina runs out of the club.
    She turns around and looks at the sleazy building.
    All of the drunk creeps.
    This has been her life.
    Marina finally sees how far she's sunk.
    She turns and looks in a window.
    She stares at her reflection.
    She wipes all the make up off.
    Marina takes the pictures out again.
    Marina looks at it, "Daniel. Oh Baby Daniel. I knew something happened. Something happened that night with Aubrey and the fire. I think you're still alive."
    She starts walking down the street.
    She can feel people staring at her like she's a prostitute.
    It wasn't to long ago she was a detective.
    Marina looks up at the sky, "Oh Danny. If our baby is alive you need to help me find him."
    She sits at the bus stop.
    Marina sighs, "I'm going to find you Cyrus. I'm going to get some answers if it's the last thing I do."
    Marina reaches into her purse and looks at the gun she has always kept in there.

    Outskirts:
    Lucy and Michelle clean up the mess.
    Lucy sighs, "Uh.. why did you ask about Marina?"
    Michelle looks at her, "Well I heard she wasn't doing to well. I mean I don't know exactly. But word on the street is she started working at a strip club or something."
    Lucy nods, "Uh.. she doesn't really talk to our family anymore. And I stay out of that stuff."
    Michelle sighs, "It's just a shame. Nothing has been the same for her since her baby died. But I know that feeling."
    Lucy looks at her, "You do?"
    Michelle sighs, "Kind of. When Hope was born. Edmund Winslow made me think she died. I was devastated and you know he had the nerve to try and raise her as his own. What kind of sick person does that?"
    Lucy turns away, "I didn't know that."
    Michelle nods, "Marina was actually the first one to put the pieces together of what happened. But I think a part of me knew. Because a mother can feel it when her child is alive."
    Lucy gets up, "I have to get going."
    Michelle can tell she is upset, "Lucy are you okay? Do you want a ride home or something?"
    Lucy shakes her head, "No I'm fine."
    Michelle stands up, "You sure?"
    Lucy shouts, "Yes! Leave me alone!"
    Lucy runs out of the bar.
    Michelle is left puzzled.

    Farmhouse:
    Marah is listening at the door of the room.
    She hears someone coming.
    She jumps back into the bed.
    Jeffrey walks in, "Marah?"
    Marah pretends to wake up, "Jeffrey... you're home."
    He sighs, "Marah I'm going to take you home."
    She shakes her head, "No, no, no, I can't see my Mom right now I just can't now."
    He nods, "I actually got a room at the Beacon. Cassie is taking care of it right now. We're going there for the night."
    Marah smiles, "We?"
    He nods, "I think it would be best if I stayed with you right now while you were... you know."
    She grins, "Oh Jeffrey I'm so glad to hear you say that. You are such a good father and I just know you're only going to get better at it. Our baby is so lucky, and so am I."
    He nods, "Well it was Cassie's idea."
    She smiles, "That was very big of her."
    Jeffrey sighs, "Cassie just wants what is best for me, the baby, and even for you."
    Marah nods, "Well then she's doing the right thing. Because we belong together."
    Marah hugs Jeffrey.
    As she looks over Jeffrey's shoulder she sees a tearful Cassie watching from the other room.

    Towers:
    Ashlee is running down the staircase.
    Roxie chases her, "Ashlee stop!"
    Ashlee keeps running, "You stay away from me!"
    Roxie catches up with her, "Ashlee!"
    Ashlee stops and turns, "No! You get away from me!"
    Roxie looks at her, "Your mother is fine!"
    Ashlee shakes her head, "No you hate my mother and you hate me! You want to kill us both!"
    Roxie shouts, "Damn it! I'm trying so hard to explain things to you Ashlee! How can anyone explain something to an idiot like you?"
    Ashlee nods, "I'm going straight to the cops this time."
    Roxie shakes her head, "No!"
    Ashlee shouts, "They will lock you up!"
    Roxie has flashbacks to being strapped to the beds.
    She grabs Ashlee's arm, "No!"
    Ashlee pulls away, "Let go of me!"
    Ashlee shoves Roxie, causing Ashlee to trip.
    Ashlee loses her balance and falls.
    Roxie watches in shock as Ashlee goes tumbling down the flight of stairs.
    She hits the bottom hard.
    Roxie gets ready to run after her but hears a door open downstairs.
    Someone sees Ashlee.
    Roxie runs back to the elevator before someone sees her.
    One of the waiters has found Ashlee's unconscious and bruised body on the floor.

    Ashlee is picking her up.
    Doris walks outside.
    The car is right there.
    Doris hops right in, "Ashlee I-"

    Roxie Shayne is the driver, "Hello Doris."
    Doris quickly realizes she's in the wrong car.
    Roxie smiles, "Buckle up!"
    Roxie hits the gas and drives off.
    Doris's door won't unlock from her seat.
    Doris looks at Roxie, "You already got your revenge on me. You hurt Ashlee. Now what the hell do you want from me? Are you going to kill me now Roxie? Is that it?"
    Roxie shakes her head, "Killing you won't bring my son back. Killing you won't go back and change what you helped them do to me. But I'll be honest, it'll make me feel a whole lot better."
    Doris stares at Roxie, "Ashlee. Ashlee was supposed to pick me up today. Where is she now?"
    Roxie shakes her head, "Don't worry about her."
    Doris looks at her, "Oh God. What did you do to Ashlee? Roxie tell me where she is!"
    Doris grabs the wheel.
    Roxie swerves off the road.



    Farmhouse:


    Cassie comes home from work.
    She walks into her house.

    She is stunned to see Marah sitting on the floor of her living room.
    Cassie looks at her, "Marah... Marah what are you doing here? How did you get inside?"
    Marah looks up, "Oh Cassie, so nice of you to drop by. I was just doing some cleaning."
    Marah hugs her.
    Cassie pulls away, "Marah what are you talking about?"
    Marah goes into the kitchen, "Do you want anything to drink? I could make some coffee?"
    Cassie shakes her head, "Marah, I think you should go home now."
    Marah turns to her, "I am home silly. Jeffrey should be home real soon if you want to say hi."
    Cassie stares at her, "What are you doing Marah?"
    Marah shakes her head, "Me? Your the one who just walks into my house. I mean I'm not mad, but maybe next time you could knock or even let me know to expect you."
    Cassie walks over and takes Marah's hand, "Marah you don't live here anymore. This is my house again. You left here a long time ago. Jeffrey isn't your boyfriend anymore."
    Marah drops the glass on the floor.
    Marah starts sobbing, "Oh my God! I'm sorry!"
    Marah slowly goes onto the floor.
    Cassie can't believe what has happened to her niece.



    Lucy and David's:


    Lucy is playing with Davey in the living room.
    David walks in, "Hey. I forgot to tell you. I saw your Dad on my way home from work."
    Lucy looks at him, "Oh yeah"
    David nods, "Yeah he was telling me about the big Cooper party coming up next week."
    She nods, "Oh he did?"
    David sighs, "He said he told you but I don't remember you mentioning it to me."
    She nods, "Well you know I was thinking of just skipping it. I mean I just went to the poker game. It's not like I don't get to see them enough or something."
    David sits by her, "He said Frank and Eleni might come into town. You haven't seen them in a while."
    Lucy shakes her head, "They won't even notice we're gone."
    David sighs, "Is Marina invited?"
    Lucy sighs, "All Cooper's are invited."
    He looks at her, "Are you afraid of having Davey in the same room as his mother and grandparents?"
    Lucy looks at David, "I am his mother."
    David sighs, "Lucy..."
    She gets up with Davey, "No the only thing I'm afraid of is what's going to happen to the person who tries to take my child away from me. Because they need to worry."
    Lucy takes Davey into the other room.



    Teasers:


    Marina walks into the back room.
    TJ is sitting there, "Hey Babe."
    She grabs some outfits, "I'm just getting ready to get to work. I think I'm on stage soon."
    TJ's guys are bringing in boxes.
    She looks at them, "What's all this crap?"
    TJ smirks, "That punk Foley isn't responding to my messages. Maybe he'll respond to this."
    Marina starts looking through the boxes, "Nothing in here but papers and crap. Cyrus would never keep his jewels somewhere open."
    She sees folders with her name on is.
    Marina starts digging through it.
    At first she just finds some pictures of her and Cyrus from when they were together.
    This makes her smile.
    Then she starts finding reports about the fire from years ago.
    Marina is very surprised and confused.
    She looks over at TJ.
    He is just getting a lap dance from another girl.
    Marina digs through the boxes some more.



    Company:


    Coop is having dinner and grading papers.
    Gus walks in, "Coop, hey how are you?"
    Coop looks up, "Gus. I've been doing okay? How about yourself?"
    Gus smiles, "I'm very well thank you. I was just hoping I could talk to you for a bit."
    Coop is surprised, "Um, okay. What were you hoping to talk to me about? Am I in trouble?"
    Gus shakes his head, "No I'm more here as a lawyer today. I have some stuff to give you."
    Coop is handed a folder.
    Coop looks at divorce papers, "Oh my God."
    Gus sighs, "Now, no one has to know. That's why I waited until your father left. This can be between you and me. I'm here to help you make this all go away."
    Coop is confused, "Wait how... why are you getting involved in his? Do you know Mary?"
    Gus nods, "I do. Mary is just ready to get the divorce to make everything official."
    Coop stares, "How could you possibly know Mary?"
    Gus sighs, "Coop I just need you to go through this with me and then we can get Mary out of your life officially."
    Coop shakes his head, "No. I need to see her."
    Gus is not happy with where this is going.



    Mallet's House:


    Maureen takes Anthony into the living room.
    The family just finished dinner.
    Mallet walks in, "Belinda just left."
    Maureen nods, "She promised to be back by curfew this time. I talked to her about it."
    Mallet sits down, "Hey Buddy."
    Anthony hugs him.
    Maureen smiles, "You have the best Daddy in the whole world, don't you little guy?"
    Mallet looks at her, "He has a very good Aunt Maureen too. He is a very lucky boy."
    Maureen grins, "Well I'm happy to be a part of this little guy's life. I love you."
    Mallet looks at her, "I love you both."
    She looks at him, "What?"
    He smiles, "I love you Maureen."
    Maureen stares, "Mallet... I love you too."
    Mallet kisses Maureen.
    Maureen looks at him, "I can't handle hiding this anymore Mallet. I think it's time."
    Mallet nods, "I agree."
    Mallet and Maureen think they are ready to tell people about them.

    PART TWO:

    Farmhouse:
    Marah is crying on the floor.
    Cassie sits by her, "Marah what is going on?"
    Marah shakes her head, "I can't believe I... I ruined everything with Jeffrey. And now my baby won't have a real family."
    Cassie sighs, "Marah as long as you are a good mother you have nothing to worry about."
    Marah cries, "I can't do this without Jeffrey. This baby is going to have to pay for my mistakes. Maybe a part of me hoped if I came in here things would be real."
    Cassie sighs, "Maybe I should take you to a doctor."
    Marah screams, "Oh God!"
    Cassie looks at her, "Marah I am so sorry. I'm sorry that you are feeling all of these things."
    Marah cries, "I just want this feeling to go away."
    Cassie holds her, "I know."
    Marah sobs, "I just wanted to have a love like you had with Richard. You at least got that. I'll never even get to be married."
    Cassie hates seeing her niece like this, "I'm so sorry Marah. I love you Marah."
    Marah cries, "I'm all alone."
    Cassie gets up, "No you won't be. I'm going to make you some water. Hold on one second."
    Marah watches Cassie as she gets the water.
    She can tell her plan is working.

    Company:
    Gus is sitting across from Coop.
    Coop looks at him, "Gus I need you to explain this to me. How do you know Mary?"
    Gus sighs, "Don't worry about it."
    Coop scoffs, "You expect me to drop it? No. I want to know what the hell is going on."
    Gus looks down, "Coop just let it go. Mary is ready to move on with her life. It's not like you were really together."
    Coop shakes his head, "You don't get it. I know it sounds crazy but I fell in love with that woman. I have been thinking about her ever since. I'm not the kind of guy who just marries someone. She is special. I really need to see her again."
    Gus sighs, "Coop... how much do you really know about this girl? I mean really think about it."
    Coop looks at him, "I know that I have very strong feelings and I can't get her out of my head."
    Gus gets up, "Just send me the papers when you're done."
    Coop rips up the papers, "Not until I get to see her."
    A very frustrated Gus leaves.

    Mallet's House:
    Anthony falls asleep on the couch.
    Maureen looks at him, "He's so adorable."
    Mallet smiles, "I couldn't agree more."
    Maureen grins, "He looks like his Daddy."
    Mallet shakes his head, "No. Are you kidding me? He gets all of his looks from his Mom..."
    Maureen sighs, "Dinah. My sister."
    He looks at her, "I know this is awkward for you."
    Maureen nods, "I was living here to help you take care of the kids because Dinah was not. I never intended for this to happen between the two of us Mallet."
    He shakes his head, "Neither did I. But Maureen you are always good with Belinda and getting her to behave. You are amazing with Anthony, he is very attatched to you. Any man would be crazy not to fall in love with someone like you."
    Maureen sighs, "Our age difference doesn't even bother me. It's just this whole Dinah situation. Dinah will never forgive me when she finds this out. Never."
    Mallet nods, "She's your sister she loves you."
    Maureen looks at him, "She loves you too."
    Mallet and Maureen feel guilty about Dinah.

    Lucy and David's:
    Lucy walks back downstairs.
    Davey is up in his room.
    David looks over at her, "I didn't mean to upset you."
    She sighs, "I know you didn't. I'm sorry if I lashed out at you. I shouldn't have done that especially in front of Davey."
    David walks over, "I don't know what we are going to do yet. But if we keep hiding people are going to wonder."
    Lucy sighs, "Do you really think we should go to the party next week with my family?"
    David nods, "I do. I mean Marina never goes to those things anymore anyway does she?"
    Lucy shakes her head, "No. She doesn't like to be around most of us anymore. She probably won't come."
    He nods, "So there is nothing stopping us from going over there with Davey and seeing everyone."
    She turns to him, "Okay. Because I think we need one last thing like that. Because in a couple of weeks... our whole lives could be very different. I don't know how exactly but they will be."
    David sighs, "I know Baby. But we'll figure it out."
    Lucy hugs her husband.

    Teasers:
    Marina is looking through the stuff.
    TJ puts his arms around her, "What you doing Babe? Nothing of value in there ya know?"
    She nods, "Oh I know. I'm just nosy. You know me. I can't leave things alone sometimes. Must be the ex cop in me."
    He laughs, "Well you're not a pig anymore."
    She sighs, "Will you get my heels?"
    He scoffs, "I ain't your butler, bitch."
    He walks away.
    Marina keeps going through the stuff.
    She keep seeing pictures.
    She notices one of Aubrey Randall.
    She takes a baby picture she sees in there.
    She stares at the baby's face.
    It looks so familiar.
    She turns it over.
    "Daniel" is written on the back of it.
    Marina's mouth drops.
    Marina shakes her head, "Daniel...."
    She takes the folders and leaves the room.



    Woods:

    Doris is running through the woods.
    Roxie is chasing after her.
    Doris trips and falls.
    Roxie catches up with her, "What the hell are you doing? Trying to kill both of us?"
    Doris looks up at her, "I know you hate me Roxie. Maybe you have a right too. But I wasn't in charge of what happened to you."
    Roxie nods, "You were a part of it. You were the one who walked in and took that baby. You took my son. Before I even got a chance to see him for myself. Before I got to hold him."
    Doris sighs, "I was doing my job."
    Roxie shakes her head, "That hospital was corrupt. They shut it down by now. But not before they made my life hell."
    Doris shakes her head, "You were not mentally stable. You apparently still aren't."
    Roxie jumps on her, "Shut your mouth!"
    Doris looks at her, "Where is Ashlee?"
    Roxie smile, "You think I should spare your child's life if you didn't save mine?"
    Doris looks at her, "Roxie your baby isn't dead! I can help you find your child. I know where."
    Roxie stops, "What?"
    Doris shakes her head, "But you have to make me a deal. You need to get Ashlee and prove to me she is okay. Then I will tell you where we took your baby. But I need to know my daughter is okay. Because if something happens to my daughter... I won't tell you a damn thing."
    Roxie knows what she has to do.

    Liz turns, "Remy!"
    Alan has her taken into the house.
    Remy shouts, "You can't keep her locked up forever Alan! It's not going to happen."
    Alan laughs, "Oh no? With all of the power and information I have, you and Elizabeth have no other choice. Go to the police? You'll be sorry. I've warned you once Remy do I have to do it again?"
    Remy shakes the gate, "You bastard!"
    Alan lights up a cigar, "You know Remy they all tried to take me down. Annie Dutton, Cassie Winslow, Phillip, Alan Michael, Gus, Harley Cooper, and the entire Lewis Clan. But all have failed."
    Remy shouts, "I won't let you get away with this!"
    Alan laughs, "Remy you are nothing but a pathetic loser. And I going to tell you this right now, give up. You are in over your head Remy. Believe me. You are out of your league."
    Remy shakes the gate, "It's on Alan! I swear to God it is not over. I will get my son and I will get Liz if it's the last thing I do."
    Remy attempts to climb the gate.
    Alan calls his security.



    Aitoro House:


    Gus walks into his house with Eden.
    Eden looks around, "Wow you have a new house. It's beautiful. You guys must love it here."
    Gus sighs, "Yeah... I should probably tell you, Harley and I divorced years ago."
    Eden's mouth drops, "What? Oh my God what happened?"
    Gus sighs, "A lot of things. Anyway she's back with Phillip Spaulding right now."
    Eden is very surprised, "I can't believe that."
    He nods, "We have a daughter. Angela."
    She grins, "After Mom. That's beautiful Nicky. You're a Dad."
    He sighs, "Well get ready for this one. I found out about a son I had a long time ago. Rafe Rivera."
    Eden gasps, "Natalia had a baby? Oh my God! So are you back with Natalia?"
    Gus shakes his head, "No. Natalia is a whole other very long story. We don't have time for that."
    Eden sighs, "And Bill?"
    Gus looks down, "Long story short, Bill married Olivia Spencer. He and her ran off to protect her daughter from the Spauldings."
    She sits down, "A lot of information to take in."
    He nods, "And not it's my turn. You have to explain to me why you came back to Springfield."
    Eden looks at her brother.



    Company:


    The Coopers have finished their game.
    Buzz and Coop sit alone at the table.
    Buzz looks at him, "You know you and Lucy are both acting like zombies today. What's up with that?"
    Coop sighs, "I don't know. I just feel like everyone is pressuring me to get into a relationship."
    Buzz nods, "Well when you go over a year with out even dating people begin to wonder if something is wrong."
    Coop looks at him, "Excuse me? When's the last time you were in a relationship?"
    Buzz scoffs, "Please. I'm to old. I had fun with Olivia and with Lillian. But your Mom was the love of my life. I think it's time you found the love of your life."
    Coop changes the subject, "What about your other children? Do you think they found the loves of their lives?"
    Buzz sighs, "Rocky's young. And I think Lucy and David are probably the real deal. And Frank and Eleni are happier than ever."
    Coop nods, "But what about Harley and Phillip. Because you always told us that Harley belonged with Gus."
    Buzz sighs, "I think Harley needs to do what's right for Harley right now. Okay?"
    The guys clean up the table.



    Towers:


    Dinah is having some drinks.
    She decides to go out on the balcony to be alone.
    She stands out there and looks at the view.
    She hears the door open behind her.
    Dinah sighs, "Oh please... I just want to be alone."

    He gets closer, "Not even to see an old friend Didi?"
    Dinah turns around, "Cyrus Foley? What the hell are you doing back in Springfield?"
    He laughs, "Don't be so happy to see me."
    She shakes her head, "Unbelievable. You couldn't have any worse timing to come back.'
    He sighs, "I take things are not so good between you and Mallet?"
    She scoffs, "There is nothing between Mallet and I anymore."
    He laughs, "I knew it. I knew it wouldn't last. You will never allow yourself to be happy."
    She looks at him, "Coming from the guy who had a great life with Harley but gave it all up to go back to a life of crime?"
    He shakes his head, "No, you don't know what your talking about Didi. It's more complicated than that."
    She turns away, "Whatever."
    He sighs, "So how is she?"
    Dinah looks at him, "Who?"
    Cyrus scoffs, "You know who."
    Dinah shakes her head, "Go away Cyrus."
    He walks closer to her, "Tell me about Belinda. Just let me know our daughter is okay."
    Dinah is not in the mood to deal with this.


    Reva Bend:


    Reva is sitting on the couch.
    She starts to get up.
    Roxie stops her, "Whoa don't get up! Just tell me what you need and I'll get it for you."
    Reva sighs, "Roxie I love you but lay off. I'm fine. I can get up and off the couch just fine."
    Roxie nods, "I know. I just am trying to be a good sister. I just love you that's all."
    Reva smiles, "I love you too. Mama would be very proud of you right now. I know she would."
    Roxie grins, "It's so good to hear that."
    Reva gets up, "But I have to go to the bathroom and if you try to help me in there I'm gonna be really mad."
    Roxie laughs, "You're on your own Sister."
    Reva goes into the bathroom.

    Cedars:

    The doctor stops them, "Look."

    They look at the baby's heartbeat."

    Jeffrey smiles, "That's our child."
    The doctor nods, "Yep. That's the baby's heartbeat."
    Jeffrey nods, "Can you tell the sex?"
    They all laugh.
    Cassie looks at him, "It's way to early for that honey. But wow this is amazing."
    Jeffrey nods, "I can't believe there is a little person growing inside of their."
    Marah sighs, "Not just any person Jeffrey. This is your child, this is our child."
    Jeffrey just stares, "I am going to be a father. That's my child inside of there."
    Marah looks at Jeffrey with a smile.
    But her smile soon fades.
    Jeffrey is holding Cassie's hand.
    The two are smiling at the screen.
    Marah feels as if her moment is being ruined.

    PART TWO:

    Towers:
    Cyrus is with Dinah on the balcony.
    Dinah shakes her head, "Belinda is not your daughter anymore. You signed away your rights remember?"
    Cyrus scoffs, "You and your friend Annie blackmailed me into it. I didn't have a choice."
    Dinah shakes her head, "I'm not letting you ruin my daughter's life. Besides Mallet's her father now."
    He turns away, "Of course he is."
    Dinah nods, "Yep. Belinda is probably closer to Mallet than she is to me. She resents me for a lot of things."
    He sighs, "How much does she know about where she came from?"
    Dinah sighs, "What do you mean? I wasn't going to tell her that we were two criminal con artists who were running all over Europe and had to give her up so we could live life on the run."
    Cyrus nods, "Does she know why you were on the run? Do your children know about your past?"
    Dinah shakes her head, "They don't need to worry about that right now. What happened to Hart was a long time ago."
    Cyrus laughs, "You know Didi, I'm not going to ruin Belinda's life. I'll leave her alone. But you are sure acting high and mighty. As if you are any better than me. At least I'm not a murderer."
    Dinah scoffs, "Go to hell Cyrus."
    He smirks, "See ya there Didi."
    He leaves her alone on the balcony.

    Company:


    Harley and Lucy are cleaning up.
    Lucy isn't paying very good attention to Harley.
    Harley is chatting about Phillip, "He makes me so happy. I mean I didn't think I'd be this happy after Gus. I mean I was happy with Cyrus but..."
    Lucy turns to her, "What did you say? Did you say Cyrus?"
    Harley nods, "Yeah. My ex boyfriend."
    Lucy is confused, "Why? Why did you bring him up?"
    Harley laughs, "You really weren't listening were you?"
    Lucy shakes her head, "Sorry. Just glad that guy is out of your life. I hope we never see him again."
    Harley sighs, "Yeah Marina warned me about him."
    Lucy gets even more uncomfortable.
    Harley continues, "Man am I worried about her. It's been so long since we've seen her. That last intervention.... I just knew if it didn't work we'd never see her again and I was right."
    Lucy nods, "Well I mean she still works at that strip club right?"
    Harley sighs, "Yeah. Every now and then I'll hear about someone seeing her at the Beacon or Outskirts. Things just haven't been the same for her since her baby died."
    Lucy drops a plate.
    Harley turns to her, "Are you okay?"
    Lucy shakes her head, "I'm just not feeling very well today."
    Lucy goes into the bathroom and vomits.

    Aitoro House:
    Gus sits next to his sister.
    He looks at her, "Eden. You need to tell me what is going on. Why did you come back to town?"
    She sighs, "Okay, it was two summers ago. There was a book convention thing at the Library I was working at. I met this great guy. He was so charming. It was love at first sight."
    Gus nods "And what happened?"
    She sighs, "We decided spur of the moment to get married. I know it sounds crazy but... I never met someone so passionate like he was so unbelievably beautiful on the inside and out."
    He sighs, "So what happened?"
    She looks at him, "The next day, he told me he wanted me to go to his hometown. Here, Springfield."
    Gus shakes his head, "Whoa. Okay so..."
    She sighs, "I ran off and I haven't seen him since. I couldn't let him find out who I really was."
    Gus nods, "I need this guy's name and I can look him up. Springfield's a small town I might know him."
    Eden looks at him, "You do. His name is Henry Bradshaw."
    Gus's mouth drops, "Henry Bradshaw? That's Coop. That's Harley's little brother Henry Cooper Bradshaw."
    She nods, "I found that out now. He's my husband."
    Gus is in shock.

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Remy is trying to climb the gates of the Spaulding Mansion.

    Alan has his guards running out.
    Alan looks at them prepare to shoot.
    Suddenly a car pulls up.

    Blake comes running out, "Remy! Remy stop it right now! Get away from there. Are you nuts?"
    Remy goes over to her, "What you trying to keep me from getting to your boyfriend?"
    Blake shakes her head, "I'm keeping you from being killed. Now get in the car. I'll take you home."
    Alan waves, "Blake! How have you been?"
    Blake sighs, "Let's go Remy."
    Alan hollers, "Detective Boudreau, if you try that again you will regret it. I promise you."
    Remy starts to run towards the gate, "You bastard!"
    Blake grabs his arm, "Remy stop it!"
    Remy goes into Blake's car.
    Alan waves as they leave.
    Liz watches from her window as Remy leaves in Blake's car.

    Cedars:
    Jeffrey and Cassie leave the room.
    Jeffrey can tell something is bother Cassie.
    He looks at her, "What's wrong?"
    She sighs, "I just feel like this is the way it's always going to be. We are always going to be dealing with Marah when we want to be around your baby. It's never going to get better."
    Jeffrey takes her hand, "Cassie we have dealt with a lot worse than this. Marah is not Edmund or Alan. We can get through this. I think maybe being a mother will be good for her."
    Cassie nods, "I hope so. Because I can handle myself. But I don't want to see you and your baby suffer because of you having to choose between Marah and... me."
    Marah is listening from the other room.
    She smiles, "Oh Cassie. You are so close to breaking. It's only a matter of time before Jeffrey is back in my arms."
    Marah walks out, "I have to get going. I'll call you later and we can talk about-"
    Marah trips and falls into Jeffrey's arms.
    Jeffrey helps her, "Are you okay?"
    She stands back up, "I'm fine I just tripped. Ow."
    She expresses pain in her foot.
    She looks at Jeffrey, "Maybe you could walk me to my car?"
    Cassie sighs, "Jeffrey maybe you should take her home."
    He looks at Cassie, "You sure?"
    Cassie nods.
    Jeffrey walks Marah out.
    Marah smiles at Cassie, "Thank you."
    She smirks at Cassie as she walks out with Jeffrey.

    Doctors and nurses holding her down.
    A woman walks in, "Hello I'm Doris Wolfe. Sorry to tell you Ms. Shayne. But the doctors and I agree that you are not fit to handle this responsibility. It's in everyone's best interest that we go on with what our original plan was."
    Roxie screams, "No!!! No you can't take him! No! He's my baby! He's my baby! Let me see him!"
    Roxie wipes the tears from her eyes.

    Secrets are hard to keep in Springfield...



    Cemetery:


    Mary is walking through the cemetery of Springfield.
    She is holding a bouquet of flowers.
    She's looking for one in particular.
    She stops, "There you are. Wow it has sure been a while. This town sure has changed since you died. It's not like anyone misses you. Well some I guess. But they are much better off without you."
    She looks around.
    She shakes her head, "Why am I doing this? I could very well be ruining people's lives. But a part of me knows that I love Henry Cooper Bradshaw. But if I had any idea that he was one of the Cooper's from Springfield.... This just all is too complicated."
    She stares at the headstone.
    She lays the bouquet down, "Imagine the look on everyone's face when they find out that you're alive. That you have been in the witness protection program, and that I'm you."
    The headstone reads: Eden August, Beloved fiance of Bill Lewis and sister of Gus Aitoro



    Company:


    The Cooper's are having a poker game.
    Buzz is dealing the cards, "It's too bad Frank isn't here."
    Harley nods, "I know it would make my victory a whole lot sweeter. I love getting to see the look on his face."
    Lucy laughs, "I know the one your talking about. Anytime someone beats him, let alone a woman."
    Harley nods, "Let alone one of his little sisters!"
    Coop laughs, "Well sorry Harley but I'm certain I will be winning. I can feel it already."
    Rocky smiles, "I think that's just wishful thinking brother. We do this a lot at the station and Harley is pretty good."
    Lucy sits up, "Hey that's not fair the cops get to be practicing, you got an advantage."
    Harley laughs, "Don't hate."
    Buzz looks at his daughter, "Where are my grandchildren? First of all Susan, she's should be playing."
    Harley nods, "Susan had to pass this time. She's spending time with her boyfriend Sam."
    Buzz smiles, "Good for her. How are the others?"
    Harley grins, "Zach is doing great at Lincoln Prep. Jude is enjoying Springfield High. Angela is doing well."
    Lucy is pretty quiet.
    Buzz looks at her, "Come on usually you're non stop with the Davey stories. What's going on?"
    Lucy is uncomfortable talking about Davey now.



    WSPR:


    Dinah and Blake walk off the set.
    Everyone compliments them, "Great show you two."
    They walk down the hall towards their dressing rooms.
    Blake looks at her, "You need to work on your attitude Dinah, I think you're making it obvious that there is tension between the two of us and the audience is picking up on things."
    Dinah shakes her head, "Well maybe we can explain everything to the audience and then they'll agree with me."
    Dinah opens the door to her dressing room.
    Blake follows her in and shuts the door.
    Dinah is furious, "Blake get out!"
    Blake shakes her head, "We need to talk about this Dinah! Or else the whole show will suffer."
    Dinah scoffs, "There is nothing to talk about. You messed up big time Blake. I mean the Alan stuff... that was pretty embarrassing for the family. But everything else is a million times worse."
    Blake shakes her head, "You have to understand why I did what I did. It's not like it was all my fault."
    Dinah looks at her, "Blake! How do you think we felt when we found out Daddy was alive? The great Ross Marler! And then we find out that you, you knew he was alive! You kept that from us."
    Blake just stares at Dinah.



    Main Street:


    Ashlee is walking to work.
    Roxie approaches her, "Ashlee."
    Ashlee keeps walking.
    Roxie follows her, "You can't hide from me forever."
    Ashlee turns to her, "What do you want? Do you want me to call the police? Because I will."
    Roxie sighs, "Don't you think you've got your revenge? Rick left me and now he's married to Mel again! No one in this whole damn town likes me and everyone knows how messed up I am in the head."
    Ashlee shakes her head, "Do you really think I wanted revenge? You think that's like my goal?"
    Roxie sighs, "What do you want from me? I can't take back the things I did to you."
    Ashlee looks at her, "What do you want from me? Forgiveness? Do you want me to tell everyone in town that I forgave you so that way they can too? Forget about it."
    Roxie sighs, "I just want you to understand that your mother-"
    Ashlee gets angry, "My mother! The reason you did all of it! I'm sorry that my Mom hurt you. But she hurt a lot of people. And she is paying for it. But lucky for you, soon she'll be here."
    Roxie is confused, "What?"
    Ashlee nods, "Doris was sentenced to two years in prison. That was in 2009. Doris has paid her debt to society. She will be back home in Springfield soon enough."
    Roxie is very surprised to hear this.



    Cedars:


    Marah is sitting in the waiting room.
    She has a sonogram today.
    Jeffrey is supposed to get there soon.
    Marah rubs her stomach, "It's okay honey. Daddy will be here very soon. Once he sees you it will all become very real. And your Great-Aunt Cassie will be kicked to the curb."

    Jeffrey walks up, "Hey."
    Marah smiles, "You made it."
    Jeffrey nods, "I hope we're still on time."
    She is confused, "'We'?"

    Cassie walks up, "Hey Marah."
    Marah looks at Jeffrey, "Really? You brought her? Can you two seriously not go more than five minutes without screwing each other?"
    Jeffrey sighs, "Cassie is going to be a part of this child's life. She should be here."
    Marah grins, "Oh I can see it now. On parents day at school you got the Mommy, the Daddy, and the crazy aunt that's nailing Daddy. Oh how lovely that will be to explain."
    Cassie sighs, "Marah I didn't come here to upset you. I'm supporting Jeffrey. Jeffrey has always been there for my children and I plan to do the same for his."
    Marah sighs, "Well my child doesn't need you."
    The nurse walks over, "Everyone ready?"
    It's time for the sonogram.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Alan walks down the hallway.
    He opens the door to let Liz out of her room.
    Liz walks out, "The baby is sleeping."
    Alan nods, "I'm sorry it took me a while to get to the door Elizabeth. I was rather busy."
    Liz nods, "Well maybe if you didn't lock me in there."
    He sighs, "Now Elizabeth we wouldn't have to if I didn't have to worry about you trying to run off with the baby."
    Liz scoffs, "My baby! My son. You just want to control him and everything else in our lives."
    Alan shakes his head, "He is perfectly happy and healthy. And I won't allow him to end up like little Sarah. Well she's probably not so little anymore. It's been years since you've seen your daughter."
    She is angry, "You are a bastard."
    Alan just shakes his head and walks away.

    Rafe walks down the hallway.
    Liz grabs him, "I need your help."
    Rafe sighs, "Here we go again."
    Liz sighs, "I need to get out of the mansion. I have to go see... him."
    Rafe shakes his head, "If Granddad found out that you left to go see him, he would lose his mind. You and the baby will probably be sent off to some other country."
    She looks at him, "Rafe you know how important this is to me. He is the father of my child. And Granddad is ruining our lives. You have to at least let me see him. Then we can finally get out of Springfield."
    Rafe feels guilt to help his cousin.

    PART TWO:

    Main Street:
    Roxie is still with Ashlee.
    Roxie looks at her, "So Doris is going to be released soon?"
    Ashlee nods, "Yep."
    Roxie sighs, "Ashlee if you understood what Doris did to me then you wouldn't be-"
    Ashlee shakes her head, "I don't care! Nothing you can say will justify your actions. You pretended to be my friend. Then you used me. You tried to ruin my career, my life, everything. You practically tried to kill me Roxie. And there is no excuse for that."
    Roxie sighs, "Your mother took..."
    Ashlee stares, "What Roxie? Took what?"
    Roxie looks down, "You wouldn't understand. But your mother is a sick and twisted person."
    Ashlee laughs, "You wanna talk about sick and twisted? Thank God that you don't have children."
    Roxie smacks her across the face.
    Ashlee stares at her, "You..."
    Roxie pulls her arm back, "Oh God! Ashlee I didn't..."
    Ashlee backs up, "You stay away from me!!!"
    Ashlee runs away from Roxie.
    Everyone is staring at Roxie who storms off.

    Cedars:
    Marah is sitting with the doctor.
    Jeffrey and Cassie walk in.
    Marah rolls her eyes, "Great."
    Jeffrey sits down, "How is it all going?"
    The doctor smiles, "We're about ready."
    Marah looks at Cassie, "You can leave if you want to Cassie. I mean I wouldn't blame you."
    Cassie shakes her head, "Why would I leave?"
    Marah sighs, "Come on. It must be really upsetting knowing that you will never again know the feeling of a beautiful life inside of you. I mean it's just sad really."
    Cassie can't believe the low blows Marah keeps giving her.
    Jeffrey looks at Marah, "Stop it."
    Marah scoffs, "How dare you! How dare both of you come in here and upset me! I'm pregnant!"
    Jeffrey sighs, "We aren't trying to upset you. You keep playing the victim Marah and that's always your problem."
    Marah gets angry, "No! My problem is that two faced slut you have at your side."
    The doctor interrupts, "Everyone... look."
    They all turn to see the baby's heartbeat.

    WSPR:
    Dinah and Blake are arguing in the dressing room.
    Blake looks at her, "I didn't know Ross was alive at first. After I came out of my coma and you were shot in the head, he came to town to see how we were and he found me. And he told me why he had to hide and told me he wanted me to move on for the sake of the kids and myself."
    Dinah turns to her, "And you never once thought you'd tell me? Or maybe the boys when they turned 18?"
    Blake sighs, "Dinah you were shot in the head. You had so much going on, you couldn't even open a door on your own let alone handle this information. Then you got pregnant. And eventually I realized that maybe it was for the best that I kept it to myself."
    Dinah nods, "Because you're selfish. That's what you are Blake. God, you are reminding me so much of your father. This is something Roger Thorpe would have done."
    Blake shakes her head, "And unfortunately you are nothing like your father. Ross would be so disappointed in you right now! You have thrown away your life with Mallet, putting your family through hell!"
    Dinah scoffs, "Don't talk about him like he's dead! That coward is out hiding! I could have used a father all these years but he abandoned me! And now my Mom is gone taking care of Bill. I have no one! Just like when I was a kid. So my father can go to hell!"
    Dinah throws a very upset Blake out of her dressing room.

    Company:
    The Coopers continue their game.
    Harley looks at Lucy, "So have you and David talked about how you're going to deal with Davey's adoption yet?"
    Lucy is confused, "Why?"
    Harley nods, "Well he's starting to get to that age where you have to decide. I mean we were open with Angela. Told her all about her biological parents you know?"
    Lucy looks down, "I don't know yet..."
    Buzz looks at his sons, "So when are you two going to give me more Grandchildren? Because I gotta tell you 6 just isn't enough for me anymore. I need more."
    Rocky laughs, "Well when I find the right guy I'll let you know. I'll let you have a big help with the adoption process or whatever we decide to do okay Dad?"
    Buzz nods, "I'm going to hold you to that."
    Everyone looks at Coop.
    Coop sighs, "Look I have plenty of time to find the right woman, and have children."
    Lucy laughs, "Don't forget marriage little brother. But I got a feeling marriage is a while away for you."
    Coop has never told any of them about his wife.

    Cemetery:
    Mary (Eden) sits by her headstone.
    She sighs, "Who am I supposed to go to? Jeffrey O'Neill? He warned me to stay hidden. Harley and Gus.... I can't disturb their life. I bet a million dollars Bill has already found someone better."
    She gets up.
    She looks down, "Happy Birthday Eden August. Someone should probably say it to you."
    She turns around and starts leaving.
    She stops in her steps.

    Gus is standing a few feet away with flowers.
    Gus stares at her.
    She pauses, "Oh my God! Nicky."
    Gus walks over to her, "Eden? Oh my God Eden what are you doing here?"
    She looks at him, "I just... I had to come here today. Oh God you look great! I can't believe it's you!"
    She hugs her big brother.
    He smiles, "I still can't believe your here."
    She sighs, "Oh there is just so much I have to tell you."



    Woods:

    Liz is walking around.
    She sighs, "Oh Rafe please come through for me. Granddad's going to realize I'm gone soon."
    Suddenly she hears footsteps.
    She turns around.

    Remy walks towards her, "I've never been more happy to see you."
    Liz runs over and jumps into his arms, "Remy! Oh Remy I love you so much. I miss you."
    He kisses her, "I miss you too. I didn't expect this. Rafe called me. I wasn't sure."
    She nods, "It's dangerous. If Granddad finds out..."
    Remy nods, "Well now we can really talk and we can make a plan. A plan to get out of this town and escape Alan. Before he has a chance to follow through with his threats."
    Liz kisses him again.
    She then reaches into her purse, "I brought some pictures for you. Of our little guy."
    Remy smiles, "Look at my Son. He's amazing."
    She nods, "He looks just like you."
    Remy kisses her.
    Alan walks into the woods with two other men.
    Alan looks at them, "Well done Elizabeth. You have proved to me just how foolish you can be."
    One man picks up Liz, "Let's go Ms Spaulding."
    She kicks, "No Granddad! Stop this!"
    Remy goes to grab her but the other man stops him.
    Remy shouts, "You can't do this Alan!"
    Alan looks at him, "I suggest you remember our deal Detective Boudreau. Because believe me, I wasn't bluffing. You stay away from Elizabeth and her child."
    Liz is pulled into Alan's limo.
    The tires to Remy's car are slashed
    The limo drives off.
    Remy chases after it.

  6. 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."

    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.

    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.

    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.
  10. JAYJAY
    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!

    An upsetting day for the people of Springfield...



    Church:


    Michelle walks outside.
    She doesn't understand how Bill could leave her on their wedding day.
    Jesse pulls up on his bike.
    Michelle stares at him.
    He parks and walks over to her.
    Michelle looks at him, "What are you doing here?"
    He looks at her, "Why are you standing outside in the cold on your wedding day?"
    She shakes her head, "I'm not to sure that this is going to be my wedding day anymore."
    He is confused, "What?"
    She sighs, "I'm... I don't think Bill and I are going to be getting married today."
    Jesse walks up to her, "Don't say that. It's not to late, just go back in there."
    She shakes her head, "You don't understand."
    He nods, "Michelle look at you. You are the most beautiful, smart, kind, giving, loving, amazing woman in the world. You deserve to be happy with a guy who can make you happy. You should be with the man you love."
    Michelle looks into his eyes.
    After what seemed like an eternity Michelle and Jesse kiss.



    Police Station:


    Bill walks back to Olivia's cell.
    She looks at him, "Bill? Bill what are you doing here? This is your wedding day."
    He nods, "I got a call from Emma. I can't believe this is happening to you. It's not right."
    She nods, "I don't understand how this is happening."
    Bill sighs, "I think I might have a good idea."
    She is confused, "What?"
    He sighs, "This might be something Phillip would do."
    Olivia kicks the bars, "Damn him! Damn him!"
    Bill tries to calm her down, "Everything is going to be okay."
    Olivia shakes her head, "No it's not! Phillip is trying to take me away from Emma."
    Bill looks at her, "I won't let him do that to you. Okay? We are Emma's parents."
    Olivia cries, "She's my little girl. She needs me and I need her. Why is he doing this?"
    Bill sighs, "I had really hoped he was changing."
    She wipes her tears, "He's a Spaulding. They never change. They just calm down a plot for a while."
    He looks at her, "Just relax."
    She looks him in the eyes, "I swear to you Bill. I will kill Phillip Spaulding before I let him take my daughter away from me."
    Bill has no idea how to help his family.


    Spaulding Mansion:


    Alan is still in the living room.
    Alexandra walks over, "Hello."
    He turns, "Well hello Alexandra. I didn't know you were home."
    She nods, "I didn't know you were. But you sure have been spending a lot of time here."
    He smiles, "This will always be my home."
    Alex nods, "What about your house? The one that you and Natalia shared?"
    He scoffs, "Drop it Alexandra."
    She sits by him, "Alan, you can't keep changing the subject. I know you miss Natalia and Baby Alan."
    Alan nods, "I miss my son."
    Alex sighs, "And Natalia."
    Alan looks at her, "Natalia abandoned me."
    Alex shakes her head, "She couldn't deal with you. Because she saw the path you were going down. I'm not surprised by it. But I have a feeling she will be back."
    Alan sighs, "Well I know I'll get my son back. I don't know if she will be with him."
    Alex nods, "Well I promise you one thing, it will be over my dead body before any man in this family takes a child away from it's mother again. Remember that Alan."
    He scoffs, "How dare you take her side."
    She she shakes her head, "I'm not. I'm on your side. Natalia brought out a side in you I hadn't seen since we were young. You told us she was the love of your life."
    He sighs, "Well she's gone now."
    Alex looks at him, "Just remember, Natalia will be back Alan. And when she is you are going to have to finally choose between her and this life you are throwing yourself back into."
    Alex walks out of the room leaving Alan to think.

    Church:
    Jesse and Michelle are kissing outside.
    Jesse has his arms around her, "Oh Michelle."
    She smiles, "I can't belive I've been fighting this. I've been fighting this ever since you came back to the Barbecue on your motorcycle. It was all leading up to this moment."
    He looks into her eyes, "I tried to push you away. I didn't want you to be forced to me. I wanted you to come to me on your own. Without someone else leading you to me."
    She smiles, "Everything happens for a reason Jesse. I know I didn't think so before but now I really think that Danny would want me to be with you for the rest of my life."
    Jesse looks at her, "Michelle do you really mean that? Do you really think I'm worthy of that?"
    She nods, "You are Jesse."
    The two kiss again.
    Jesse smiles, "I'm so happy Michelle."
    Michelle wipes her tears, "Bill not showing up was a huge blessing in disguise. This almost didn't happen."
    He pulls away, "What?"
    She looks at him, "Bill left the wedding before it began. I was upset but now I know it wasn't meant to be."
    Jesse steps away, "So when you came out here.... you weren't looking for me? You were looking for Bill."
    Michelle realizes she just upset Jesse.



    Park:


    Gus is still on the bench.
    The woman he just met is sitting by him.
    Gus looks at her, "So what are you in town for?"
    She sighs, "A few things. A wedding today."
    He nods, "A friend?"
    She looks at him, "Something like that."
    He sits back, "It wouldn't be the wedding for Bill Lewis and Michelle Bauer would it?"
    She turns to him, "Yes. Do you know them?"
    He nods, "Yeah I know them. Their good people. Are you a friend of the bride or the groom."
    She turns away, "It's complicated."
    He is confused, "You seem like a woman of mystery."
    She laughs, "Well that's because we don't know each other. I know you're a cop, you're handsome, you're lonely, you think you're funny, you have nothing better to do than sit on a bench and talk to strangers."
    He smiles, "So I'm handsome?"
    She laughs with him.
    Gus is taking his mind off his problems.


    Vegas:


    Mary is getting dressed quickly.
    Coop looks at her, "Wait what is going on?"
    She sighs, "This was all a mistake. We just met each other. I can't believe we did this."
    He shakes his head, "No. A second ago you were just telling me how happy you were and how you thought it was so great and perfect. Now you're changing your story."
    She sighs, "It just hit me Henry. Okay, we met the other day and now we are husband and wife. This was a fun idea but we can't be married to each other. No."
    He shakes his head, "Why did you get so upset when I brought up Springfield? What was that?"
    She turns to him, "I don't know what you're talking about."
    He nods, "Yes you do. You were all excited to go with me before that. But when you heard Springfield something changed."
    She shakes her head, "No. You don't get it. I've never been to 'Springfield'. I just don't do these things. I'm a librarian. I don't go on wild crazy adventures."
    He takes her hand, "And neither did I before you."
    She looks down, "I..."
    He stops her, "No. Look at me. Look at me and tell me that you think this was a mistake."
    She looks into his eyes, "It wasn't a mistake. But I can't go to Springfield with you."
    Coop is so confused by her.

    PART TWO:

    Spaulding Mansion:


    Annie is in the study.
    Alexandra walks in, "We need to talk."
    Annie looks up, "Well Alexandra what a nice surprise."
    She nods, "I bet. I'm onto you Annie."
    Annie laughs, "Let's not get over dramatic."
    Alex shakes her head, "Don't play your games with me. You can play them with your girlfriends, with Alan, Phillip, Lizzie, but you can't play those games with me."
    Annie sits back, "What is your problem now Alex?"
    Alexandra looks at her, "I must say you've done well for yourself. You proved to everyone what you're capable of. And as a fellow woman I admire that you did it all without a man's help. But it is not going to last Annie. Believe me."
    Annie sighs, "I know you are upset. But that is no reason to come make threats at me."
    Alex shakes her head, "I'm not going to do anything to you Annie. I don't have the time. Plus there's no point. You don't need me, you're going to ruin everything all on your own."
    Annie looks back down, "We're done here."
    Alex nods, "I've seen a lot of people in that chair. It doesn't last. You have all the right plans and strategies but there is always one thing that causes your default. Your ego. It will be the very thing that takes everything away from you."
    Annie looks at her, "Goodbye Alex."
    Alex nods, "Yes. Good luck Annie. You'll need it."
    Annie won't allow herself to get nervous.

    Park:
    Gus and his new friend are sitting on the bench.
    He smiles, "You know I still haven't gotten your name."
    She nods, "I know. Weird."
    He laughs, "Can I get it?"
    She shakes her head, "No. I'm keeping a low profile right now?"
    He looks at her, "You in legal trouble?"
    She shakes her head, "Nope. Don't worry about me buddy."
    He laughs, "I'll try."
    She looks at her, "Watch I have to get going. It was nice chatting with you for a while."
    He nods, "I agree. I enjoyed it."
    She gets up, "Well goodbye."
    Gus looks at her, "Wait. How about your number?"
    She laughs, "If I didn't give you my name why do you think you would get my number?"
    He sighs, "How will I ask you out?"
    She shakes her head, "I got to much to take care of now. But if it is meant to be, then when I'm ready you'll be there."
    She walks away leaving Gus with a big smile.

    Church:
    Jesse is walking away from Michelle.
    She walks over to him, "What is wrong?"
    He turns to her, "You told me that you chose me. That I was the guy you picked."
    She nods, "I did! That's why I'm here."
    He shakes his head, "No! You're here because Bill left you at the alter. Can you honestly tell me that if he had stayed that you would be here with me right now?"
    She shakes her head, "No, but..."
    He nods, "Would you have married him?"
    Michelle is crying again, "Yes!"
    Jesse heads for his bike.
    Michelle chases him, "Jesse wait!"
    He turns to her, "Stop! I'm not doing this. I wanted to be the guy you chose. Not your consolation prize!"
    She shakes her head, "No! You could never be my consolation prize."
    He sighs, "It was one thing competing with the love you had with Danny. But Bill... I'm not even going to get in the middle of that."
    Jesse gets on his bike.
    Michelle cries, "Jesse please!"
    Jesse drives off.
    Michelle pulls herself together and goes back inside to get her things and leave.

    Police Station:
    Bill walks out to see Emma.
    Emma jumps up, "Daddy! Did you take care of Mom?"
    Bill sighs, "I'm sorry..."
    She shouts, "No!"
    He hugs her, "Today we can't do anything but I'm going to bring your Mom home soon I promise."
    Olivia is being walked out of her cell.
    She is trying to hold it together for Emma.
    They are taking her to the airport.
    Emma cries, "Mommy!"
    Olivia looks at her, "I love you Emma! I love you so much."
    Emma cries, "No! Mom!"
    Olivia looks at Bill, "Take care of her! Keep her away from the Spauldings Bill. Promise me."
    Bill nods, "I promise. We will get you back Olivia. I promise you that too. You'll be home."
    They walk Olivia out of the station.
    Emma goes running after her, "No you can't take her! You can't take her from me!"
    Bill breaks down crying as he holds his emotional daughter back.

    Vegas:
    Coop and Mary are hugging.
    Mary looks at him, "I'm so sorry. But I can't go to Springfield with you. I'm sorry."
    He sighs, "Why? If we are so great together then why?"
    She shakes her head, "We knew that getting married wouldn't stop us from being separated. All it did was keep us together a little longer. But we live in different places."
    He nods, "Then I'll move to be with you. Okay? I just can't be away from you. I have fallen for you."
    She stares at him, "You would really move away from your home just to be with me?"
    He nods, "If it meant that I was going to be with you, then I would live anywhere."
    She wipes a tear, "I've never had a man who made me feel this way. At least not quite like this."
    He nods, "I know exactly what you mean. I thought I had experienced love before but..."
    She looks away.
    He sighs, "Let's go out for breakfast! I'm going to get ready. I'll be right back."
    Coop runs into the bathroom.
    Mary feels horrible but she has to take this chance.
    She throws all of her stuff into her bag.
    She runs out the door.

    Church:


    Ed and Rick are sitting on a bench inside.
    Michelle walks over, "Hi."
    Rick sighs, "We sent the guests home for you. I'm so sorry Michelle. I'm so sorry."
    Michelle nods, "I know."
    Ed sighs, "Do you want us to wait and see if Bill shows up?"
    She shakes her head, "You can but I have to go."
    Rick looks at her, "We'll drive you home."
    She shakes her head, "No. I don't want the kids to see me like this. I just need sometime to think I'll call you."
    Ed sighs, "Are you sure?"
    She hugs him, "Yes thank you."
    Michelle leaves.
    Ed and Rick go downstairs to clean up.
    Outside the mysterious woman who was talking to Gus is watching.
    She can tell the wedding won't be happening today and she leaves.
    Later Bill pulls up in his car.
    He just dropped Emma off at home.
    He runs into the church.
    It is completely empty now.
    He shouts, "Michelle!?! No! Michelle!"
    Bill missed his wedding completely.
    He is to late.

    Church:


    Michelle and Bill's wedding.
    Michelle and her ladies are getting ready.
    Vanessa and Dinah are sitting together.
    Vanessa smiles, "I'm so happy for you brother. He really deserves this. Don't you think?"
    Dinah sighs, "I will be respectful because this is Bill's day but I really don't want to talk to you."
    Vanessa sighs, "Mallet will be home soon. But you need to realize that your family should be your number one priority."
    Dinah gets ready to respond but Marah walks out.

    Marah smiles, "Ladies, here is the bride."
    Michelle walks out in her dress with her hair done, "Hey."
    Vanessa stands up, "Oh Darling. You look absolutely beautiful. You look incredible."
    Michelle smiles, "Thank you Vanessa."
    Dinah stands, "My brother is a lucky man."
    Michelle nods, "And I'm a lucky woman."
    Vanessa nods, "Yes. You two are going to have a perfect day and it will be everything you imagined."
    Michelle turns and looks in the mirror, "Everything is going to go the way it is supposed to."



    Beacon:


    Emma is in her dress.
    Olivia walks over, "You look beautiful honey."
    Emma sighs, "We should get going so we aren't late."
    Olivia nods, "Okay I'll get my purse and then I'll drop you off there. Do you have your cell phone?"
    Emma sighs, "Are you sure you don't want to come?"
    Olivia nods, "Yes baby. But don't worry. You are going to have fun. Michelle is a nice woman and she'll make Daddy happy."
    Emma looks down, "I like Michelle. But a part of me wishes you and Dad were getting married today."
    Olivia sighs, "Oh honey..."
    There is a knock on the door.
    Olivia goes to answer.
    To gentleman are standing there.
    She looks at them, "Can I help you."
    The first man looks at her, "Olivia Spencer?"
    She nods, "That's me."
    He looks at her, "We're with immigration, you're going to have to come with us."
    Olivia scoffs, "What no."
    They nod, "You need to come with us."
    She shakes her head, "I have my daughter with me."
    The man sighs, "She can come with us. We'll contact the girls father when we get to the station."
    Emma is worried, "Mommy?"
    Olivia sighs, "It's going to be fine sweetheart."
    They all leave together.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Phillip is talking with a few of the staff at the house.
    Annie walks up to him, "What are you up to now Phillip?"
    He turns to her, "Is something wrong Annie?"
    She nods, "Rumor is that you are planning something against my good friend Olivia."
    He shakes his head, "I'm fighting for custody of my daughter but I'm not planning anything."
    Annie nods, "Okay, I'm sure. You're a Spaulding Phillip. I know how you all work."
    Phillip shakes his head, "I have no idea what you're talking about Annie. I didn't do anything."
    Annie looks at the staff, "You'll see. He says nothings going on but I'm sure before we know it something bad is going to happen to Olivia and we will all know who's fault it is."
    Phillip sighs, "Annie, Olivia is fine. What is all of this about? I haven't done anything."
    Annie nods, "Come on Phillip. We all know you would do anything to have your daughter back."
    He sighs, "Of course."
    She shakes her head, "Anything?"
    Annie walks away very proud of the ideas she's planting in people's heads.

    Church:


    Bill is getting himself together.
    Shayne walks over, "Are you nervous?"
    Bill shakes his head, "No. Today I am marrying Michelle Bauer. The woman I've been best friends with my whole life."
    Shayne nods, "Well you're much more than friends now right?"
    Bill hesitates, "Yeah, of course."

    Ed and Rick walk in.
    Rick smiles, "There's my soon to be brother in law. How are you doing Bill? Nervous?"
    Bill shakes his head, "No."
    Ed smiles, "My daughter is very excited. You two deserve to have the perfect wedding."
    Shayne looks at them, "Hey have you guys seen my Dad and Uncle Billy?"
    Rick nods, "I think so..."
    The three of them walk out of the room.
    Bill's phone rings.
    He answer's, "Hello?... Emma.... Emma baby slow down what's going on?.... Oh God.... Okay Emma don't worry, Daddy is going to fix this okay?... I'm on my way."
    Bill sits his phone down and writes a note then leaves it on the table.
    Bill quickly grabs his car keys and runs out the door, without noticing he left his phone.
    The door sends a small wind, blowing the note to the floor.



    Park:


    Gus is going for a walk.
    After a while he sits on the bench.
    He has a lot on his mind.
    Susan and he can't be together anymore.
    Olivia doesn't want to see him again.
    Harley is furious with him.
    Gus feels completely alone.
    He talks to himself, "You screwed up big time. You never should have broke up with Harley in the first place. Then none of this ever would have happened in the first place."
    Gus is trying to let go.
    He knows it is time to move on.
    He is having trouble excepting that it may be over with Harley.
    She will always be the love of his life.

    A young woman is walking by.
    She stops and looks at him, "Well look at this depressing little man right here."
    He looks up, "Well aren't you peachy?"
    She laughs, "Sorry but you are moping in the park. You're kind of asking for it."
    He nods, "Well my life isn't going the way I planned."
    She laughs, "Who's is?"
    He nods, "Good point."
    She sits next to him, "No offense buddy, but you're being a baby."
    Gus is very amused by her.

    Vegas:


    At a nice hotel.
    Inside a honeymoon suite.
    Henry Cooper Bradshaw wakes up in his bed.
    He thinks to himself if it was just a dream.
    He looks to see Mary opening her eyes.
    He smiles, "Good morning."
    She grins, "I was afraid this was all a dream."
    He laughs, "So was I. I mean I never do anything like this."
    She laughs, "I hope not."
    He nods, "No. I mean I am not a spontaneous person. I wasn't even sure if I believed in love at first sight. I thought it was something silly my Dad used to talk about with my Mom."
    She looks at him, "You really seem to miss her."
    He nods, "I do."
    She sighs, "My parents are both dead. I miss them. But I have to believe that they are still with me."
    Coop smiles, "You think they would like me?"
    She grins, "If you made me happy. What about you? Do you think you're family will like me?"
    He nods, "How could they not?"
    She grins, "Well I'm excited. I know it's going to be a lot to explain to people though."
    Coop nods, "Yes. A lot of stuff to explain. But I think that when they see how much we love each other, they will be more than happy for us. Trust me they'll like you."
    The two kiss.

    PART TWO:

    Park:
    Gus is still sitting on the bench next to the woman.
    He looks at her, "You know I don't think I've seen you around Springfield before."
    She nods, "Well I just got here."
    He nods, "Oh I see. Well if you ever need someone to show you around, just let me know."
    She smiles, "I can show myself around thank you."
    He laughs, "I don't know. It is a very nice town but it can be dangerous sometimes."
    She nods, "And what are you going to do to protect me?"
    He smiles, "Well I'm a cop. That's a start."
    She laughs, "That's nice. Well, I guess I got your number already then. So we're good."
    Gus looks at her, "Well if you ever want my personal number...'
    She shakes her head, "I don't know how long I'm going to be here. It might not be for long."
    Gus nods, "What are you in town for?"
    She sighs, "Well there's a few things I need to take care of. But today I'm hoping to make it to a wedding."
    Gus looks at her, "A friend?"
    She nods, "Something like that."

    Church:
    Michelle is getting herself together.
    She looks at the clock, "Okay just in time.
    Michelle goes to the door.
    Ed walks in, "Hey."
    She smiles, "Hi Daddy."
    He grins, "You look lovely. Your mother would love to see you like this Michelle."
    She shakes her head, "Don't make me cry Dad."
    He kisses her on the cheek, "I love you."
    Marah slowly walks in.
    Michelle smiles, "I'm ready."
    Marah walks over, "Michelle honey, there's a problem."
    Michelle worries, "What?"
    Marah sighs, "Shayne is having an issue with Bill."
    Michelle is confused, "What kind of issue?"
    Marah sighs, "We don't know where he is."
    Michelle is in shock and confusion.

    Spaulding Mansion:


    Annie walks into the living room.
    Alan is sitting down, "Hello Annie."
    Annie grins, "I hope you know that the plan is going perfectly. Olivia is in deep now."
    Alan looks at her, "Already? You haven't even told me what you had planned for her."
    Annie sighs, "Well let's just say I got in contact with immigration and may have pulled some strings."
    Alan grins, "Really? Wow. So are you sure? Is Olivia Spencer really on her way out of the country."
    Annie nods, "She should be."
    Alan laughs, "Perfect. I'm so sick and tired of that woman. Emma will be better off without her."
    Annie nods, "But that's only part one."
    He is confused, "And part two?"
    She sighs, "We need to make sure that everyone is suspecting Phillip. So when everyone finds out what happened to Olivia, all eyes will be on Phillip. And how many mothers would hate him after that?"
    Alan laughs, "You are brilliant Annie."
    She smiles, "Don't I know it."
    The two sit and ponder their next move.


    Police Station:

    Bill runs inside.
    Emma is sitting alone.
    Bill walks up to her, "Baby..."
    She hugs him, "Daddy! Daddy you have to stop them! They are trying to take Mommy away."
    The immigration officer comes over.
    Bill turns to him, "What's going on?"
    He sighs, "Ms. Spencer is going to be deported. And we have been instructed to do it ASAP."
    Bill shakes his head, "No not today. This is all happening way to fast. You guys can't do this."
    He nods, "Sorry it's out of our hands. Now she will eventually be able to try and work this out but for the time being we need to get her back to San Cristobal."
    Emma cries, "No!"
    Bill sighs, "Please don't do this. Look at her daughter. Olivia and Emma are very close you can't separate them."
    He shakes his head, "We can't take her. You are her father, I assume you can take care of her."
    Bill sighs, "God! This isn't right. This is... Phillip."
    Emma is confused, "What?"
    Bill turns to her, "Go sit down honey, I'm going to straighten things out for your Mom."
    Emma goes to sit down.
    Bill looks at him, "This is the Spauldings isn't it? Phillip is trying to get rid of Olivia. I'm not going to let that happen!"
    Bill is furious.

    Vegas:
    Coop and Mary are getting dressed.
    Mary smiles, "I still can't believe we're married."
    Coop grins, "I know! This is crazy."
    She turns to him, "Okay so what's next?"
    He laughs, "Uh... I don't know. We can go meet with my family and introduce you."
    She nods, "Okay. I can stand to go to England."
    He laughs, "Well that will have to wait. My Mom's family lives in England. But my Dad actually lived near Chicago."
    She pauses, "Chicago?"
    He nods, "Yeah. You okay with that?"
    She turns away, "No I just... I'm not really a fan of the windy city you know? Not for me."
    He laughs, "Well that's fine. It's not really in Chicago. It's near Chicago. The town I'm from is Springfield."
    She stands still.
    He looks at her, "You okay?"
    She turns to him, "What did you say?"
    He nods, "Springfield."
    She shakes her head, "No. That's... I can't go there."
    Coop is very confused.

    Church:
    Michelle is standing with Ed and Marah.
    Ed looks at Marah, "Do you have any idea where Bill could be?"
    She shakes her head, "No. Shayne said you guys left to find Billy and Josh. When he got back Bill was gone."
    Michelle isn't saying anything.
    Rick walks in, "It's filling up out there and people are starting to worry. What's going on?"
    Ed sighs, "Bill left."
    Rick is confused, "What do you mean?"
    Marah sighs, "We don't know. But Bill left without telling anyone and we can't get a hold of him."
    Rick is confused, "You call his cell phone?"
    Marah sighs, "He left it."
    Michelle has tears in her eyes, "Bill wouldn't..."
    Ed turns to her, "Honey..."
    Michelle walks away from him.
    Marah tries to hug her but Michelle pulls away.
    Rick sighs, "Sis don't..."
    Michelle goes running out, "No!"
    Michelle is running around the downstairs of the church.
    She sees the backdoor and runs out.
    She looks around, "Bill's car is gone."
    Michelle cries, "Why?"
    She then hears the motorcycle.
    Jesse pulls up in front of the church.
    Michelle stares in shock.

    Cross Creek:


    Bill walks outside.
    Shayne walks out with him, "Hey. Are you okay?"
    Bill nods, "It's just... I am trying to enjoy my night and my father is making it difficult."
    Shayne sighs, "Billy was just joking around."

    Billy walks out, "Shayne can I talk to my son please?"
    Shayne goes inside.
    Billy walks over to him, "I'm sorry."
    Bill sighs, "I didn't mean to make things uncomfortable. But Olivia isn't a bad person."
    Billy looks at him, "I've never made it a secret how I feel about Olivia Spencer. But I wasn't saying that to upset you Bill. I just thought with you moving on with Michelle that all of your feelings for Olivia would be well gone."
    Bill turns to him, "It's not like that. Olivia is Emma's biological mother. I am her adoptive father. Olivia could easily have me cut out of Emma's life but she hasn't. I owe a lot to her."
    Billy sighs, "I'm sorry. You're right. You know you're Mom and I love that Emma. She has really become our Granddaughter. We couldn't love her any more if she were blood."
    Bill looks at him, "I'm glad to hear you say that. Emma is my daughter whether she is blood or not."
    Billy smiles, "She's a lucky kid to have you, Olivia, and Michelle in her life."
    Bill and Billy walks back inside.



    Bauer Home:


    Michelle is outside.
    Jesse approaches her, "Hi."
    She turns to him, "What are you doing here?"
    He sighs, "I was going for a walk."
    She shakes her head, "Around my neighborhood?"
    He nods, "I have no idea how I ended up here. But when I noticed your house I saw you walking outside, in that dress."
    Michelle looks down at the wedding dress she is still wearing, "Oh, that's right."
    He stares, "You look absolutely beautiful."
    She shakes her head, "What are you doing here Jesse?"
    He sighs, "I told you. Now tell me what you're doing outside in your wedding dress."
    She sighs, "I was showing it to the women. They went to go set up some games or something. I needed to just get out here and take a break from everything going on."
    Jesse nods, "Everything?"
    She looks down, "Not like that."
    He looks at her hands, "You brought your phone."
    She sighs, "I was going to call Bill."
    He shakes his head, "I wouldn't."
    She is confused, "Why not?"
    He sighs, "It's bad luck. We both know you don't need more of that."
    Michelle stares at him.



    Harley's House:


    Lucy is with Cyrus.
    She explains to him, "Aubrey delivered Marina's baby and let her believe it died in the fire. But she took it with her on the run."
    Cyrus is confused, "Why would she want Marina's baby?"
    Lucy sighs, "She was faking a pregnancy. The typical crazy woman takes pregnant woman's baby story. Only now we don't know where Aubrey is."
    Cyrus looks at her, "Does Marina know?"
    Lucy shakes her head, "No. We can't tell her until we know the baby is alive otherwise she will lose him all over again."
    He walks away, "Unbelievable! How can they keep this from her? Is that even legal?"
    Lucy sighs, "The only people who know are me, David, and Lizzie Spaulding. No one else."
    Cyrus laughs, "So David sent you to enlist me?"
    She shakes her head, "David doesn't know about this. He would never agree to it."
    Cyrus nods, "You're a real piece of work. Well I'm sorry but I'm not going to be a part of this."
    She nods, "Oh yes you will! Or I'm going to tell Harley that Guillespie is back in town."
    Cyrus shakes his head, "Whatever."
    She nods, "What about Alan Spaulding? I'm sure he won't be to happy. Or hey maybe it'll make the papers and Jonathan Randall will find out. I wonder what he would do to the man who murdered his wife. Or AC Mallet, didn't your brother murder his sister?"
    Cyrus walks over to her, "Are you really going to put his life in jeopardy just to get back at me?"
    She nods, "I need your help."
    Cyrus feels like he's trapped.



    Towers:


    Blake is having a meeting with a publisher.
    He smiles, "It's nice to see you."
    She smiles, "You too. I really hope we can come to an agreement on this project."
    He nods, "Right a new book?"
    She nods, "Yep. By far one of my greatest yet."
    He sighs, "I don't know a lot of people really seemed to enjoy 'Love in the Lock Up'."
    Blake smiles, "Yes but that was years ago. This one is going to be so much better."
    He sits back, "Well let's hear the plot."
    She explains, "It begins on New Years Eve. When a business woman is showering and her body guard decides to join her to celebrate the new year in a spontaneous way. And from then on it's a love story about these two people who are fighting their intense passion."
    He grins, "Does this story have a title?"
    She shakes her head, "Not quite yet. But so far I haven't finished it yet. But it won't be long."
    He nods, "Well tell me this, does this story have a happy ending?"
    She grins, "Oh yes I promise you. The two characters will end up together. Believe me."



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Lorelei walks down the hallway.
    She stops to look at herself in the mirror.
    She loves seeing herself in nice clothes with expensive jewelry.
    She walks into her bedroom ready to lay down.

    Phillip is sitting on the bed, "Hello."
    Candles are lit and music is playing.
    Lorelei smiles, "Phillip. What is this?"
    He grins, "I thought my wife deserved a little romance today. Just because she is so special."
    She smiles, "You are just to much."
    He pours wine, "Nothing is to much for you."
    She sits next to him, "Thank you."
    He looks at her, "I love you Beth. I always have and I always will. I'm so happy to have you back in my life."
    Lorelei loves hearing this but knows he's not really talking to her.
    She turns away, "So how is all of your planning coming on all of the company stuff?"
    He shakes his head, "Let's not talk about work tonight. It's just you and me Beth."
    She sighs, "Oh Phillip..."
    He kisses her neck, "It's been a while since we last made love. I want tonight to be perfect."
    Lorelei is really not in the mood for all of this.

    A Park:


    Coop and Mary are going for a walk.
    He looks at her, "It's not fair. I just met the most beautiful woman in the world and now I have to leave."
    She laughs, "Well look at the bright side, maybe it will make a good story for you one day."
    He shakes his head, "Sounds like a depressing story. Maybe I can change the ending."
    She smiles, "How would you change it?"
    He laughs, "Okay lets see, we'd spend the whole night talking and getting to know each other. And as it went on each of us would realize how perfect we are for each other."
    She smiles, "Go on."
    He nods, "Then we would look at the time and realize how many hours we spent just getting to know each other and that we had so much little time left together."
    She sighs, "Sounds like a sad ending."
    He nods, "That is where the author has to think of some plot twist. Something would have to happen that would stop us from separating."
    She laughs, "I hope you're creative."
    He smiles, "I would look you in the eyes and tell you that I think you are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen and I'd never forgive myself if I let you go now."
    She looks into his eyes, "How would you hold onto me?"
    He laughs, "I don't know!!! I'd drive you to Las Vegas and marry you right on the spot."
    The two pause and look at each other.
    Mary grins, "Henry Bradshaw did you just propose to me?"
    The two look into each other's eyes.

    PART TWO:



    Beacon:

    Blake got a room.
    She brings her lap top into the room with her.
    She decides to work more on her next novel.
    She tried writing in the Carriage House but something just didn't feel right there.
    She looks around, "This is the room. The room where we lived when we first... that night. A year and a half ago. That look in your eyes, it was a while since someone looked at me like that."
    That first night in the shower has been on her mind a lot lately.
    Blake opens her lap top.
    She sits back.
    Blake remembers how complicated her books make things.
    The last one caused problems for Gus and Harley's marriage.
    Blake nods, "Remy, you aren't going to be happy when this comes out. But this is a story that needs to be told. People think all we had was sex but it was so much more. And you need to be reminded of it. And you will be. You'll remember."
    Blake begins typing the next chapter.

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Lorelei is on the bed with Phillip.
    He is kissing her.
    She is enjoying it at first.
    He moans, "I love you Beth."
    She pushes him away, "Oh, um, where is Penelope?"
    He sits up, "She's with the Nanny isn't she?"
    She nods, "That's right. I'm sorry."
    He sighs, "It's nice to have our alone time right now. Away from the kids you know?"
    She nods, "Oh yes. We certainly need a break."
    Phillip smiles, "It's nice to just have these moment together. My God you are beautiful."
    She looks at him, "You are so handsome."
    The two kiss.
    Phillip lays her down on the bed.
    The two are kissing passionately.
    Phillip takes off his shirt.
    Lorelei stares at his body.
    Phillip kisses her.
    He starts to undress her.
    She gets lost in his eyes.
    Suddenly she hears his words, "Oh Beth..."
    She jumps up, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry I don't feel well."
    Lorelei runs into the bathroom.
    A disappointed Phillip sits alone on the bed.

    Cross Creek:


    Ed and Rick are talking.
    Bill walks back in.
    Ed turns to him, "Hey Bill, we were just discussing the barbecue for next year. You're gonna be a Bauer."
    He smiles, "That's right! Do I get a shot at that grill?"
    Rick laughs, "Oh my boy you have to go through the training. You can't just jump into it. We gotta teach you how to make a good Bauer Burger."
    Bill laughs, "Well I look forward to it."

    Josh smiles, "Well I'm very happy that the Lewises and the Bauers will now be family. We are honored to be a part of your family and to have you all a part of ours."
    Ed smiles, "Same here Josh."
    Rick looks at Bill, "Who would have imagined this? I remember you, Michelle, and Ben as kids. Now look at you and Michelle. You're getting married to each other."
    Bill sighs, "I just wish Ben could be there."
    Josh looks at him, "He will."
    Shayne makes another toast, "I wish you so much luck. Not that you need it. You and Michelle have so much happiness to look forward to and you deserve it. No one will ruin it."

    Bauer Home:
    Michelle and Jesse are still standing outside.
    Jesse looks at her, "You are going to be the most beautiful bride that has ever been."
    She shakes her head, "Well thanks but I am sure there have been much prettier brides."
    He shakes his head, "No. You're it. You look like an angel Michelle. And it's perfect."
    She sighs, "This isn't even how I'm going to looks on my wedding day. The whole thing isn't done."
    He picks some flowers out of the garden, "Here take these."
    She holds them, "Why?"
    He looks at her, "Now you look like a real bride."
    Michelle faces Jesse while wearing her wedding dress with the flowers in her hands.
    She turns away, "We shouldn't do this."
    He sighs, "Do what?"
    She has tears in her eyes, "Please stop."
    He sighs, "Michelle I'm not doing anything! I didn't drag you out here and I'm not making you stay."
    Michelle sighs, "Marrying Bill is right. It's what I'm supposed to do. It's what Danny would want me to do."
    Jesse nods, "I hope you're right. All I want is for you to be happy."
    He walks away.
    She shouts to him, "You said you were going to stay away from me."
    He sighs, "I'm trying. But something keeps pulling us together."
    Jesse leaves.
    Michelle wipes her tears and goes back inside.

    Harley's House:
    Cyrus walks downstairs with some stuff packed.
    Lucy looks at him, "I hope you're good at what you do."
    Cyrus looks at her, "I can't believe what you're doing to me."
    She sighs, "I'm not doing it to you. I'm doing it for Marina. I am doing all of this for her."
    Cyrus shakes his head, "I hope she can find it in her heart to forgive you. It's messed up keeping this all from her."
    Lucy nods, "Don't worry about it."
    He looks at her, "Now what do I tell Harley?"
    Lucy hands him a pen and paper, "I'm ready. Just right her a note then you can go."
    He scoffs, "A note? Are you serious?"
    She nods, "Tell her that you had to go take care of something urgent. You'll explain when you get back."
    He shakes his head, "No what if she moves on?"
    Lucy sighs, "Then I guess you two weren't meant to be."
    Cyrus stares at her, "Do you get some joy out of controlling people's lives?"
    She shakes her head, "No. But I have to do what's best for the people I love. Now write your note."
    Cyrus writes his note.
    It's a long one.
    He explains that he has an emergency but urges her to wait for him.
    He loves her.
    Cyrus grabs his stuff.
    Lucy walks him out.

    A Park:
    Mary is standing with Coop.
    Mary is confused, "Henry we just met. How can you even think of jumping into something."
    He laughs, "I have no idea. I don't do these things. I'm not the big crazy, wild, adventurous type. I only write about amazing love stories with passion and excitement, now I want to live it."
    Mary smiles, "But what if I'm not the woman you are thinking I am."
    He sighs, "Okay fine, tell me who you are and I'll see if you are the woman I think you are."
    She sighs, "Henry... fine I'm a librarian. And-"
    He stops her, "No. Tell me who you are."
    She sighs, "I have had love before. Love that I had to give up on. And I regretted it and it took me years to move on. But I've learned that change can help. It can help you grow, learn, and discover who you really are underneath the surface. And with literature I've discovered this whole universe I never knew existed."
    Coop smiles, "I've searched for love. And every time I think I find it everything falls a part. I find so much happiness in my teaching. I love helping others understand and finding their own potential. And I love writing. It takes me to this whole other universe. I love the characters, the stories, the twists, the endings."
    Mary has tears in her eyes, "I've always wanted a happy ending."
    He smiles, "So have I."
    The two kiss.
    Coop takes her hand and they run off.

    A woman overhearing him turns to him, "He's just great isn't he?"
    Coop nods, "Amazing. I mean everything he said was just exactly what was in my head."
    She smiles, "I know right?"
    He grins, "I noticed you in front asking all the questions that we were afraid to ask."
    She laughs, "Well I believe if you don't ask then you don't deserve to know. I used to not be a big reader before I started working here."
    He looks at her, "Do you work here?"
    She nods, "Oh yeah. I'm a librarian. I know boring."
    He shakes his head, "No I've just never seen such a beautiful librarian before."
    She laughs, "Well thanks."
    He grins, "I'm Henry."
    She shakes his hand, "I'm Mary."

    He smiles, "Yeah."
    The two leave together.



    Company:


    Cassie and Edmund are sitting in a booth together.
    Edmund sighs, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
    She shakes her head, "No we are friends Edmund. And this is what friends do remember?"
    He shakes his head, "No."
    She turns to him, "I hope that one day people can forgive me and when they do I want them to be able to sit and have a meal with me the way that I am with you."
    Edmund sighs, "Cassie you've already proven to me that you have forgiven me. You don't have to prove it to anyone else."
    She nods, "Yes I do."

    Buzz walks over, "Uh..."
    Cassie looks at him, "I'll have my usual Buzz."
    Buzz shakes his head, "Uh okay."
    Edmund sighs, "I'll have whatever she is having. Thank you Buzz."
    Buzz stares for a moment then walks away.
    Edmund laughs, "Old times."
    She nods, "I remember all the looks we got when we used to date. No one understood."
    He sighs, "No one did."
    She nods, "But it didn't matter. I mean as long as we understood it, no one else's opinion mattered."
    Edmund smiles, "Typical Cassie. Never caring what anyone thought about her. That's why so many people love you."
    Cassie smiles at Edmund.



    Old Cabin:


    Lorelei knocks on the door.
    Guillespie opens, "Hey gorgeous."
    She walks in, "I wanted to drop by and say hi."
    Guillespie smiles, "Awe so nice of you to check on me. Now why are you really here?"
    She scoffs, "What you don't believe me?"
    He looks at the bag in her hand, "What's that?"
    She laughs, "Okay! Well I got a job for ya buddy."
    She takes the bag and dumps it on the table.
    Jewelry comes falling out.
    G looks at it, "Nice!"
    She nods, "I know! Beth has got some classy stuff there. That could by me a house."
    He looks at her, "You selling it?"
    She shakes her head, "Nope you are."
    He laughs, "What?"
    She sighs, "Beth Spaulding can't be seen doin' that. And I can't send someone else or Phil's gonna find out. I just want some money to stash. You can get a cut of it."
    He nods, "Okay. So you trust me?"
    She sighs, "I just figured I'd see how you do with this job."
    He walks over to her, "I won't let you down babe."
    She grins, "I'm glad to hear it buddy."
    The two laugh and go through the jewelry.

    Lucy walks from behind the corner, "Busted."
    Cyrus turns to her, "What the hell?"
    She smiles, "You thought I was you're brother?"
    Cyrus shakes his head, "No."
    She grins, "Don't deny it Cyrus. I already knew. I saw you taking groceries up to the old cabin. This was just for fun."
    Cyrus scoffs, "You spying on me?"
    Lucy nods, "You're dating my sister. You also dated my niece. I have a right to."
    Cyrus walks away, "I'm not going to do this with you."
    She follows him, "Oh yes you will. We got a deal to make. Otherwise I'm going to tell my sister that you have been hiding your hitman brother behind her back."
    Cyrus turns and stares at Lucy.

    PART TWO:

    Coffee Shop:
    Mary and Coop have been talking.
    Mary smiles, "I totally agree! I mean his early work was good but I think his later stuff was brilliant."
    He nods, "I know. Most people always say the old stuff is good no matter what. But a lot of authors peaked in their writing with the later stuff. Wow you are great to talk to."
    She laughs, "It's weird that we are having such a passionate conversation about literature."
    He nods, "Well I am an English teacher."
    She nods, "That's really cool. I recently got my associates degree. I went to community college for a while."
    Coop smiles, "It's never to late to learn."
    She grins, "Well if I had you as a teacher I would have enjoyed classes even more."
    Coop laughs, "Well thank you."
    She smiles, "A librarian and a teacher. How awesome are we?"
    He laugh, "Two underrated jobs."
    She sighs, "So I'm assuming because you're so great that means you don't live here?"
    He shakes his head, "No. I'm just in town for this. I'm leaving soon. Unfortunatly."
    Mary sighs, "Just my luck."
    He nods, "I have to ask you a question and please don't laugh."
    She smiles, "What?"
    Coop looks into her eyes, "Do you believe in love at first sight."
    She grins, "If you had asked me this morning I would have said no. But now... I think so."
    The two smile and look into each other's eyes.

    Company:
    Cassie and Edmund are eating.
    Harley walks in.
    She sees them and walks over, "Hi."
    Cassie smiles, "Hey!"
    Harley looks at them, "What's going on?"
    Cassie grins, "I am having dinner with a good friend of mine. Edmund Winslow. What about you?"
    Harley sighs, "I'm meeting Cyrus here."
    Cassie smiles, "Oh good."
    Harley looks at her, "Can I talk with you over here for a moment? Girl talk really quick."
    Cassie follows her to the other side of the diner.
    Harley looks at her, "Okay if there is something you can't tell me then blink twice."
    Cassie laughs, "Stop it."
    Harley is confused, "Why are you here with him?"
    Cassie sighs, "Listen I'm trying to get people to give me a second chance. How can I deny that to Edmund?"
    Harley sighs, "Honey this is like his 1,000,000th chance."
    Cassie shakes her head, "I have to do what's right."
    Harley turns her head, "First Blake now Cassie."
    Cassie looks at her, "Wait. What's up with Blake?"
    Harley sighs, "Nothing. Go enjoy your meal. I am gonna look for Cyrus."
    Cassie hugs Harley then goes back to Edmund.
    Harley doesn't want to tell Cassie that Blake has been hanging out with Alan.

    Old Cabin:
    Lorelei and Guillespie go through the jewelry.
    Lorelei plays with it, "Isn't this stuff cool? I mean just knowing how expensive it all is."
    Guillespie looks at her, "Aren't you used to it by now?"
    She shakes her head, "Baby you never get used to this."
    He looks at her, "Do your Beth voice."
    Lorelei sits up, "Give me something to say."
    Guillespie smiles, "Say something very Spaulding-like."
    She clears her throat and drops the accent, "You know Mr. Guillespie, I must take the opportunity to inform you that messing with a Spaulding is just as dangerous as putting a loaded gun into your mouth."
    Guillespie is laughing, "That is crazy!"
    She looks at him seriously, "But I am not kidding. Alan Spaulding taught me a lot. If you mess with me then I'm going to get you back twice as hard. I promise you that."
    Guillespie looks at her, "You are so hot."
    She shoves him, "Hey! I'm married woman!"
    He laughs, "Not really. Phillip loves Beth. Not her alter ego."
    Lorlei sighs, "I don't love him either. I have loved some men. Bill Lewis. Edmund Winslow, Alan Spaulding. But Alan thought I was Beth too. They all prefer her."
    Guillespie shakes his head, "I don't."
    Lorelei scoffs, "Well you're opinion means squat to me."
    Lorelei continues to go through the loot.

    Cross Creek:
    Bill is laughing and joking with the guys.
    Shayne looks at him, "So are you going to miss being single?"
    He shakes his head, "I'm not single. I've been with Michelle for a while now. I was not single for long."
    Shayne nods, "Exactly."
    Billy laughs, "No. My son wants to be married. I can see it in his eyes. He is ready to be tied down again."
    Josh nods, "I think that you and Michelle are going to have a lot of happiness."
    Bill smiles, "So do I."
    Ed looks at him, "I want you to know that I appreciate you making Robbie and Hope so welcome. And I want you to know that I plan on making Emma and Harlan feel the same way."
    Bill nods, "I'm glad to hear it. Michelle, Robbie, Hope, Emma, and Harlan Billy, we're going to be one happy family. We all fit so well together. It makes sense."
    Billy nods, "Those kids could use a good Mom like Michelle."
    Bill sighs, "Dad let's not do that."
    Billy laughs, "Come on. It's no secret that Olivia and Ava aren't anything like Michelle."
    Bill sighs, "Ava is sick. And Olivia is a great Mom. I'm lucky that she brought Emma into my life."
    The men get a little uncomfortable.

    Bauer Home:
    Vanessa and Dinah sit on the couch.
    Dinah looks at Vanessa, "So Michelle says that Maureen told her she wouldn't be back in time for the wedding."
    Vanessa nods, "Mmm hmm."
    Dinah sighs, "You're just not going to tell me anything."
    Vanessa sighs, "Let's not do this Dinah. This is Michelle's night."
    Marah walks out, "Ladies, Michelle is ready to show you girls her dress! It looks great on her."
    Vanessa smiles, "Oh let's see it!"
    Michelle walks out in her wedding dress.
    Dinah jumps up, "Ah! You look gorgeous!"
    Vanessa hugs her, "You look beautiful. Marah did a great job."
    Marah smiles, "Thank you."
    Michelle grins, "I like it too."
    Vanessa hugs her, "Your Mother is going to be so proud of you."
    Marah looks at her watch, "Okay Michelle you go change out of the dress and we're gonna go set up some games.
    The ladies leave Michelle alone.
    Michelle grabs her phone and sneaks outside.
    She is trying to call Bill.
    She dials his number.
    Footsteps are coming up to her.
    She turns.
    Jesse is standing there.



    Harley's House:
    Cyrus is with Lucy.
    Cyrus looks at her, "So you are looking to make some kind of deal with me?"
    Lucy sighs, "I hope you don't think it's some sexual thing. Because you aren't my type. I don't really get why Marina and Harley were so crazy about you. You're a loser."
    Cyrus scoffs, "What do you want?"
    Lucy sighs, "I need you to go out on a hunt for me. There is a missing person I need you to find."
    He laughs, "Aren't you dating a cop?"
    Lucy nods, "The cops have to follow the laws. You don't. And there are more details the cops don't know."
    Cyrus shakes his head, "I'm not a PI."
    She nods, "But you can find people. This person is on the run and you have to locate them."
    He shakes his head, "I can't just leave."
    She nods, "Yes you can. And you will."
    He sighs, "Who are we even talking about?"
    She takes a deep breathe, "Aubrey Cross."
    He scoffs, "What? Why? What reason do you possibly have to go after Aubrey Cross?"
    Lucy looks at him, "I have my reasons."
    He walks away, "This is crazy."
    She sighs, "Do it for Marina."
    He turns to her, "What does this have to do with Marina?"
    Lucy sighs, "Marina's baby didn't die in the fire. Aubrey kidnapped him and let Marina think the baby died. But she has him. She has had him this whole time."
    Cyrus stares at Lucy in shock and disbelief.

    People worry about each other in Springfield...



    Park:


    Olivia and Emma are going on a walk.
    Bill approaches them with HB in a stroller.
    Olivia smiles, "Hey."
    He grins, "I thought I saw you two. What are you girls up to today?"
    Emma hugs him, "Hey Daddy. We're having a girls day."
    Bill laughs, "I guess I better get out of the way."
    Olivia shakes her head, "No, you can hang out with us for a little bit. How's my little guy doing?"
    She smiles at HB.
    Emma turns to Bill, "Can I push him around the park?"
    Bill nods, "Sure be careful."
    Emma takes the stroller around.
    Olivia looks at Bill, "What have you been up to?"
    He sighs, "Michelle and I are planning more for the wedding. It's in two weeks."
    Olivia is surprised, "Wow that's sudden."
    Bill nods, "Well yeah. I mean Michelle wants things to happen fast. She really wants us married."
    Olivia nods, "And how do you feel?"
    He smiles, "I want to be married again of course."
    She sighs, "To Michelle?"
    He nods, "Of course."
    She looks at him, "I'm really glad that you're so happy Bill."
    Bill can tell something is bothering her , "Hey is there something wrong?"
    Olivia knows exactly what she wants to say.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Alan and Annie sit across each other from the desk.
    Annie smiles, "I know of a way that we can not only get Olivia out of the picture but sabotage Phillip."
    Alan smiles, "Oh I like the sound of that Annie. But are you sure you know what to do?"
    She nods, "I think so. You see all we have to do is think of a way to seperate Olivia and Emma."
    Alan grins, "I like the sound of that."
    She nods, "Then you'll have your granddaughter back."
    Alan sighs, "Where does Phillip fit in?"
    Annie smiles, "Phillip wants his daughter back. He'll do just about anything at this point."
    Alan is confused, "What are you suggesting."
    Annie sighs, "Whatever we do to Olivia is going to be big. Big enough that we'll need to keep our names out of it."
    He nods, "But who's names will be on it?"
    She smiles, "I say we pin the whole thing on Phillip?"
    Alan sits back, "Oh yeah?"
    She nods, "That way Olivia is out of our hair. Then the whole town blames Phillip for it."
    Alan has a huge smile on his face, "I really missed working with you Annie Dutton."
    Annie nods, "And I you."
    The two smile at each other.



    Cedars:


    Alan Michael is sitting in a room.
    Ed walks in with Mel.
    Ed walks over to him, "Hello Alan Michael."
    Alan Michael sighs, "Hey Uncle Ed."
    Ed looks at him, "You want to explain to me what happened just now with your doctor?"
    Alan Michael nods, "He kept asking me questions. He wouldn't stop so I had to make him."
    Ed sighs, "By strangling him?"
    Alan Michael has tears in his eyes, "I don't know what's wrong with me Uncle Ed."
    Mel tries to walk over to him, "Honey..."
    He shoves her away, "No! You stay away from me!"
    Mel puts her hands on him, "Alan Micahel I am still your wife. Please don't shut me out."
    Alan Michael is getting stressed.
    Ed takes Mel by the arm and walks her out.
    Mel turns to him, "Ed..."
    Ed looks at her, "Mel you used to be a doctor. You know better than to act like this around patients."
    She shakes her head, "He's not a patient he's my husband."
    Ed nods, "And he's my nephew. I am going to do whatever it takes to help him. But I need you to cooperate."
    Mel has never felt so helpless.



    Ravenwood:


    Ava sits on her bed.
    Shayne looks at her, "What are you thinking about?"
    She sighs, "My baby. I missed his birthday. Olivia offered to bring me pictures but I don't want pictures of Bill and Olivia holding my baby together."
    Shayne sighs, "I'm sure they would have sent you some with just HB in them."
    She scoffs, "I hate that name. H B."
    Shayne nods, "Yeah Harlan Billy Lewis IV."
    She shakes her head, "It's not cute. I should have gotten to name my child. Not them."
    Shayne nods, "Weren't you in a coma?"
    She nods, "Thanks to your sister!!!"
    Shayne looks down, "I'm not going to get into all of that."
    Ava sighs, "Are Jeffrey and Marah still together?"
    He nods, "Yeah. They are living at the old farmhouse."
    She nods, "They get married?"
    He shakes his head, "No but with everything going on I'm sure she's thinking about it."
    Ava is confused, "What's going on?"
    Shayne nods, "Michelle and Bill's wedding."
    Ava stares at him, "What?"
    Shayne looks at her, "You didn't know?"
    Ava gets angry, "Are you telling me that Bill is going to marry that woman? The doctor who let me slip into a coma? The woman who has been trying play mother to my child?"
    Shayne wishes he hadn't brought it up now.



    Old Cabin:


    Cyrus knocks on the door.
    Guillespie opens, "Well hey bro. I'm sorry I wasn't expecting any company today."
    Cyrus nods, "Very funny. I brought you some food and some money. I wanted to check on you.'
    Guillespie takes the stuff, "Thanks! See ya."
    G goes to shut the door in his face.
    Cyrus stops him, "Would you let me in?"
    G moves out of the way.
    Cyrus walks in, "Does it get to cold here at night?"
    Guillespie nods, "Yeah but it's fine. People like me don't deserve to have real homes."
    Cyrus sighs, "Can we not do this?"
    Guillespie smiles, "How are things at Harley's house? Is it nice and warm? Cozy?"
    Cyrus shakes his head, "You could have that too. You can turn your life around."
    Guillespie nods, "Just not around other people."
    Cyrus sighs, "Just not in Springfield."
    G looks at him, "You mean just not around your friend! Because you are ashamed of me! You've finally made a life for yourself and I'm just going to screw it up! Right?"
    Cyrus hates to say this, "Yes."
    Guillespie is furious at his brother.



    Docks:


    Remy is walking around.
    Blake is following him, "Remy would you just listen to me?"
    Remy turns to her, "You can't keep following me everywhere that I go! That is stalking!"
    She shakes her head, "No. I'm just trying to get you to listen to me. I will follow you all over Springfield if I have to. I deserve to be listened to Remy."
    He turns to her, "Blake! We broke up a year ago."
    Blake nods, "And we made love on New Years!"
    Remy nods, "Then you went to be with Ross!"
    She shakes her head, "I went to bring him home but he wouldn't! My children still think he's dead. Ross is probably never going to come home Remy. So stop it."
    Remy sighs, "You don't get it. I'm not going to be some consolation prize for you."
    She shakes her head, "You're not."
    He nods, "Yes I am."
    Blake looks at him, "Remy don't you think we belong together now? I haven't stopped thinking about you and having feelings for you. I know you feel the same way. You never slept with Stephanie did you?"
    Remy sighs, "That's none of your business."
    She nods, "I knew it! And you haven't been with Liz either. It's because you still have feelings for me."
    Remy looks at her, "Just because I didn't sleep with someone in Springfield doesn't mean I didn't have sex with someone else."
    Blake is very confused by him.

    PART TWO:

    Old Cabin:
    Guillespie turns away from his brother.
    Cyrus sighs, "I'm sorry I didn't mean for it to come out like that. I just don't-"
    G turns to him, "Stop it! I'm sick and tired of listening to you. You think you're something special now? Just because you're dating some cop with 4 kids? You're still the same man. And you always will be. You are no better than I am."
    Cyrus shakes his head, "I have made a new life for myself. I put all that behind me."
    G laughs, "Really? There aren't times when you see the outline of man's wallet in his pants and think about how easily you could slip it out without him noticing? There aren't times when you see a drunken trophy wife complaining about her husband and you think of all the ways you could get her in to bed and make off with her cash?"
    Cyrus backs away, "You are pathetiic."
    Guillspie nods, "And I'm right. Sure right now you're doing okay. Buzz is letting you take shifts at Company. But can you really live like this? I mean Harley's not making much herself and she's got the kids to take care of. And you like nice things Cyrus."
    Cyrus scoffs, "Wow! I have no idea why I tried to help you. Because you are hopeless."
    Cyrus leaves and slams the door.
    Guillespie kicks the wall in frustration.

    Cedars:
    Ed walks in to see Alan Michael.
    Alan Michael is sitting in a chair.
    Ed looks at him, "Are you okay?"
    Alan Michael shakes his head, "No I'm not. And I haven't been for a long time now."
    Ed sighs, "So what do you think we should do about that?"
    Alan Michael has tears in his eyes, "I don't want to lose my mind. I don't want to end up like Phillip or Alan."
    Ed nods, "I don't want that either. I want to see you get help. But I can't do that without you wanting it."
    Alan Michael nods, "I need help."
    Ed sighs, "Felicia contacted some doctors. They are going to come over and talk with you. They might possibly try to suggest Ravenwood to you. But I just want you to know-"
    Alan Michael looks up, "I think that's a good idea."
    Ed is confused, "What?"
    Alan Michael sighs, "I might change my mind later. But right now I think Ravenwood would be a good break from everything."
    Ed looks down, "Okay. I'll talk to the doctors."
    Ed gets up and walks out.
    Alan Michael sighs, "I'm going to get you back Annie. And now you won't even be expecting it."

    Ravenwood:
    Shayne stands up.
    Ava is furious, "Are you serious? Bill is going to marry that twit Michelle Bauer?"
    Shayne shakes his head, "Can we not do this please?"
    She shouts, "You brought it up!"
    He sighs, "I thought you knew!"
    She shakes her head, "I don't know anything! No one tells me anything. They won't even let me read the newspaper anymore or watch television. I told you that."
    Shayne turns to her, "Ava, the angrier you get is not going to change what's happening."
    She kicks the wall, "Damn it!"
    Shayne looks at her, "I know how you feel."
    She shakes her head, "Doubt it."
    He nods, "Someone you love has moved on. It's a weird feeling, especially when you still haven't gotten closure."
    Ava turns to him, "My child is involved."
    Shayne sighs, "As much as you will hate to hear this, Michelle isn't a bad person at all."
    Ava lays down, "Go away! I can't deal with this. I can't deal with people praising bitches like Michelle and Marah and Olivia. Those 3 made my life a living hell. They took everything from me."
    Shayne looks at her, "For someone who wants her life back you are sure pushing it away."
    She looks at him, "What do you suggest I do?"
    He looks her in the eye, "You need to work on making yourself better. Because the sooner they see you are better the sooner you will be out of here and back with your son."
    Shayne leaves Ava to be alone.
    Ava thinks about what he said.

    Park:
    Olivia is standing with Bill.
    She reassures him, "I'm fine thank you. I'm just... there's been so much going on lately."
    Bill nods, "I know. I mean it's tough for me to enjoy my happiness. Reva's cancer's back, Dinah has issues with Mallet, and now all this stuff with Phillip."
    Olivia nods, "He is really going to try and get custody and we can't let that happen."
    He sighs, "I know."
    She shakes her head, "He's a Spaulding. Bill, you know what they are capable of. My nephew Jonathan will probably never come home to Springfield because of them."
    Bill sighs, "He's gotta stay on the run to protect his daughter from the Spauldings."
    She sighs, "I'm proud of him. I would have done the same thing."
    Bill sighs, "But I mean Lizzie is seperated from her daughter."
    Olivia nods, "Well sometimes one parent has to put the needs of the child before the other parent."
    Bill looks her in the eyes, "Olivia promise me that you won't do something drastic. At least not without coming to me first. Okay?"
    Olivia sighs, "I promise Bill."
    Emma walks back over with HB.
    Bill smiles, "Hey sweetie. I'm gonna take him home now. You two have a nice day and call me tonight okay?"
    Emma hugs him, "I love you Daddy."
    Olivia and Emma walk one way and Bill and HB go the other.

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Alan and Annie are sitting in the office.
    Annie looks at him, "Alan, I'll never understand how you can be so cruel to your own children. I'm grateful for it at the moment but I'll never understand it."
    Alan sighs, "I only do what is best for my family. They will all understand someday."
    Annie shakes her head, "I don't know."
    He laughs, "If you had a family you'd understand."
    She sighs, "I did."
    Alan shakes his head, "I mean children."
    She looks at him, "I did!"
    He is confused, "You got a secret family?"
    She sighs, "It's not secret that I love Marah and Shayne as if they were my own flesh and blood."
    Alan sighs, "Oh Annie come off it! I told you long ago to say your goodbyes to them."
    Annie shakes her head, "Do you love Phillip any less because he isn't your biological son?"
    Alan looks at her, "Do you even talk to those kids anymore?"
    She shakes her head, "No. But I would do anything for them. I just hope they know that."
    Alan and Annie understand each other but are still confused by each other.

    Docks:
    Remy walks away from Blake.
    Blake walks over to him, "What are you talking about?"
    He sighs, "Nothing."
    She shakes her head, "No not nothing. You brought it up. So you slept with someone else?"
    Remy nods, "We aren't dating anymore Blake."
    She sighs, "I don't believe you."
    He nods, "I'm not lying."
    She shakes her head, "You're just trying to push me away."
    He sighs, "It was in Pasadena. When I was out of town. A long time ago now. But yeah I hooked up with a woman."
    Blake sighs, "What was she like?"
    He laughs, "Nothing like any woman in Springfield. That whole place was nothing like Springfield."
    Blake turns to him, "You know if all you wanted was sex, why wouldn't you go to someone you already knew?"
    He sighs, "I needed something fun, something hot and exciting."
    She nods, "That's what we had!"
    He looks at her, "Then we fell for each other and everything got complicated."
    She shakes her head, "You just need to remember."
    Remy walks away from her.
    Blake takes a few minutes to think.
    She makes a phone call, "Hey... yes it's me. I was wondering if we could have another meeting... yes there is a knew book I've been working on. It will be one of my greatest novels yet... okay see you then."
    Blake hangs up.
    She sighs, "Things will be clear soon. I'll remind you of what we shared Remy."

    People want to help each other in Springfield...




    Company:



    Olivia is eating with Emma.
    Buzz walks over, "How are two of my favorite ladies?"
    Olivia hugs him, "Hey! How are you?"
    He grins, "I'm good. How are you two?"
    Emma smiles, "We're good."
    Olivia looks away.
    Buzz turns to Emma, "Hey Em, why don't you go back and ask Lynn to help you make a special sundae."
    Emma grins, "Okay cool."
    Emma goes back to the kitchen.
    Buzz sits down, "Something you need to talk about?"
    She shakes her head, "Phillip's restraining order is about to be lifted. I can't let that happen."
    Buzz sighs, "He's Emma's father."
    She turns to him, "You were more of a father to her then he ever was. Bill is her father now."
    Buzz nods, "And I understand that. But Harley thinks Phillip is back to normal now."
    Olivia shakes her head, "No. Maybe for now. But it won't last. I won't let him take her away from me again."
    Buzz stares at her, "Olivia, Phillip is going to have to kill me before he can take your daughter from you."
    Olivia puts her hand on his face, "I actually believe you when you say that."
    He nods, "You should because I mean it."
    She sighs, "How did I ever let you get away?"
    He shakes his head, "I have no idea."
    The two laugh.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Annie is in the office.
    Alan walks in, "Hello Annie."
    She smiles, "Oh Alan. Did you come to apply to be my personal assistant?"
    He laughs, "Very funny. You haven't lost your sense of humor."
    She sighs, "Well I've lost my patience so get to why you are here."
    He looks at her, "You may have on the battle Annie. But the war is far from over."
    She laughs, "Do you really think you have a shot at CEO?"
    He shakes his head, "I was referring to Phillip. He's going to challenge you again this fall. And by then he'll probably have everyone on his side. You'll be thrown out of here faster than a used napkin."
    She nods, "So you came here to gloat?"
    He shakes his head, "No. I came here to offer you a chance."
    Annie is confused, "A chance?"
    He nods, "We were great partners once. We can be again."
    She sighs, "Hmm, why should I trust you?"
    He grins, "What's your alternative? To sit in your chair and wait while Phillip gets a plan to take it."
    She looks at him, "Why me? Why aren't you helping Phillip?"
    Alan sighs, "Phillip is very different from me. He has different plans. But you and I are much a like. I think we want the same things. We always have."
    She stares, "What do I need you for? I have gotten this far all on my own."
    He looks at her, "Oh really? Last time I checked you had partners in crime."
    Annie nods, "Dinah and Olivia are indeed great allies."
    Alan looks at her, "But how long can they be good allies? They aren't like us. Sooner or later they will get over it. Dinah Marler will throw herself into some crazy scheme and Olivia will throw herself into another man."
    Annie begins to think about what Alan is saying.



    Gym:


    Remy is working out.
    Blake walks in.
    She spots Remy and approaches him, "Wow, you make it all look so easy. I can barely lift my gym bag."
    He looks at her, "What do you want Blake?"
    She sighs, "The same body I had when I was 20. That's why I'm here."
    He is confused, "I'm here all the time I never see you here."
    She nods, "Oh really? Well I just recently decided to get back into shape. New episodes of 'Light Talk' start soon."
    Remy really wants to leave.
    But a part of him wants to keep talking.
    He sighs, "So how are the kids?"
    She smiles, "Oh just great. Clarissa is starting Springfield High. Kevin is getting a job at WSPR. And Jason is considering law school."
    Remy nods, "Following in Ross's footsteps."
    Blake sighs, "So how have you been?"
    He nods, "Fine. Enjoying my single lifestyle."
    Blake is confused, "What about Lizzie?"
    He turns to her, "What about her?"
    Blake sighs, "I just thought you two... you seemed to be so cozy at the Bauer Barbecue last month. I figured you two were hooking up."
    He shakes his head, "No. I'm not stupid enough to get mixed up with a Spaulding."
    Blake begins to question her situation with Alan.



    Cedars:


    Alan Michael and Mel are waiting for another appointment.
    Alan Michael has been talking to psychologist and other doctors for weeks.
    Mel turns to him, "Do you want me to get you some coffee?"
    He shakes his head, "No."
    She looks at him, "I'm hungry, maybe after this we can stop by company and get a burger."
    Alan Michael nods, "Sure."
    Mel sighs, "You know Leah wanted us all to go to the movies. Anything you want to see?"
    He shrugs.
    Mel gets upset, "Okay I get it. You are mad at me. But I am still your wife. I made a mistake and I know that. But we can't just give up on our marriage because of one mistake."
    He just stares away from her.
    Mel shoves him, "Alan Michael talk to me!"
    He turns to her, "I don't know if I'll ever be able to trust you ever again Mel."
    Mel has tears in her eyes.
    The doctors comes out, "You ready Mr. Spaulding?"
    Alan Michael gets up and walks in.
    Mel cries after he leaves.



    Ravenwood:


    Ava sits in her room.
    The nurse opens the door, "You have a visitor."
    Shayne walks in, "Hey best friend."
    She scoffs, "Did you forget something last time?"
    He shakes his head, "No. Why?"
    She looks at him, "Why else would you be here?"
    He smiles, "Because I like spending time with you."
    She get sarcastic, "Awe? Really! Wow it's so great! We can be best friends! You can play with me, tell me how cool I am, teach me lessons, then you can go home to your real life and I'll still be here."
    He sighs, "Is nothing good enough for you?"
    She turns to him, "You don't get it do you? I'm not some charity case. I don't want your damn pity. I don't want to be the dumb girl that you are nice to so that you can feel better about yourself."
    Shayne shakes his head, "You are so defensive."
    She turns away from him, "Just go away."
    He looks at her, "I know how you feel. When I was younger I was in a car accident. I was paralyzed from the waist down. I wanted to give up and be left alone. But Marina helped me and I eventually learned to walk again."
    Ava rolls her eyes, "Wow I hope they made a movie of the week about you."
    He sighs, "After that I joined the peace corps. As a part of my giving back. If you have then give. That's how I feel."
    She turns to him, "And now I'm part of your giving. No thank you."
    Shayne gets up and walks over to her, "You never know. Maybe I got a crush on you."
    Ava shoots him a disgusted look.



    Bauer Home:


    Bill and Michelle are in the kitchen.
    He walks over to her, "All the plans are coming together. The church is ready for our date."
    She grins, "I can't believe in two weeks you and I are going to be husband and wife."
    He nods, "Isn't it amazing? I mean we've come so far from the crazy year we had. 2009 has been pretty good for us."
    She sighs, "Well with a few exceptions."
    He nods, "Yeah well a crazy ex complicates things."
    She sighs, "Well I wouldn't say crazy. Just... I mean you can't blame someone for still having feelings."
    Bill shakes his head, "I would definitely say crazy. I mean I don't hate Ava but she is insane."
    Michelle is confused, "Ava?"
    He nods, "Yeah Ava the 'crazy ex'. Who did you think I was talking about?"
    She shakes her head, "Never mind."
    He can tell something is bothering her, "Is everything okay?"
    She nods, "It will be. Once you and I are husband and wife. We will get everything we deserve."
    He nods, "I think so too. I'm marrying the woman who's been my best friend my whole life. What more could I want?"
    She shakes her head, "I can't think of anything."
    Bill kisses her.
    The two hug.
    Michelle is trying not to think about Jesse.

    PART TWO:

    Gym:
    Blake and Remy are working out separately.
    Blake decides to take off her jacket.
    Remy stares at the revealing shirt she's wearing.
    She smiles, "Is there a stain on my shirt or something?"
    He shakes his head, "No. Why?"
    She laughs, "No reason."
    Blake bends over to get something out of her gym bag.
    She purposely leans towards Remy.
    Remy jumps up and grabs her, "I know what you're doing Blake and it is not going to work."
    She acts confused, "What are you talking about?"
    He shakes his head, "Don't play dumb. I know you Blake. I'm not buying this whole thing."
    She sighs, "I think you are reading to much into this."
    He stares at her, "Why are you spending so much time on me? You have 3 children, a talk show, and so many other things to focus on. Why are you bothering me?"
    She looks into his eyes, "Remy you brought out a passion in me that I haven't felt in a long time."
    Remy nods, "I know since Ross..."
    She shakes her head, "Before Ross. Remy you remind me of who I am as a person. You remind me that I'm Christina Blake Thorpe. And I'm not ready to give you up."
    Remy pulls away, "You gave up on us a year ago. I'm not just gonna be some booty call for you."
    Remy gets his stuff and leaves.

    Ravenwood:
    Shayne stands in front of Ava.
    Ava looks at Shayne, "You're a real piece of work you know that?"
    He walks away, "Why is that?"
    She looks at him, "Don't you have a boyfriend?"
    He shakes his head, "No. Rocky and I broke up last spring."
    She is confused, "Still doesn't make sense."
    He laughs, "Why wouldn't I like you?"
    She sighs, "Well I don't have a penis, there's a start."
    He looks at her, "I'm not gay."
    She laughs, "Okay, did you have sex with Rocky?"
    He nods, "Well ye-"
    She shouts, "GAY!!!"
    Shayne laughs, "You're so narrow minded."
    Ava sighs, "Oh, you're not gonna pull that bisexual thing on me are you? Because I'm not stupid. I know it's not real."
    Shayne nods, "I don't put labels on myself."
    She laughs, "That is such a 'Gay' thing to say. That's like one of the catch phrases."
    He looks at her, "I am attracted to people. Gender isn't my defining attraction. I have loved a man and I've loved a woman."
    She nods, "Weren't they related? Maybe it's just Cooper's you're attracted to. I think Buzz is single."
    He laughs, "No thanks. Maybe you and I wouldn't make a good couple."
    She shakes her head, "Do you even know my last name Shayne?"
    He sighs, "Uh... It's Spencer or Winslow?"
    She makes a buzzing sound, "Wrong answer. It's Lewis. Just like you. I never changed it back after I married Bill."
    Shayne smiles, "Well maybe you should keep it that way. Just in case."
    Ava just rolls her eyes at him.

    Bauer Home:
    Michelle and Bill are going over the plans.
    Michelle looks at him, "I was thinking you could walk down the aisle with your parents. I think that would be nice. Then my Dad can walk me down the aisle."
    He nods, "Okay so who's your maid of honor?"
    She smiles, "Marah of course."
    He nods, "Oh good I asked Shayne to be my best man. Brother and sister."
    She looks at him, "Will Mindy be in town?"
    Bill shakes his head, "No she and Rusty are busy."
    She sighs, "That's too bad. I wanted her in my wedding party."
    He smiles, "Really?"
    She nods, "Yeah she's your sister. That's why I'm asking Dinah and Maureen."
    He nods, "Okay then I'll get Rick."
    She looks at him, "You need one more guy to make it even."
    He nods, "Well Dylan isn't available either. But I'll ask my uncle Josh. I'm sure he'll be cool with it."
    Michelle smiles, "Great. Then I was thinking Robbie and Jude could be a little groomsman for you. And Emma and Leah could be one for me."
    Bill nods, "And then Hope will be the flower girl and we'll find someway to make HB our ring bearer."
    She smiles, "This is going to be the best wedding ever."
    The two of them kiss.

    Company:
    Olivia is still with Buzz.
    She looks at him, "I feel bad every time I look at you."
    He laughs, "Ouch."
    She shakes her head, "No. I'm just reminded. We fought so hard to be together. You gave up a lot to be with me. Then I broke your heart. You deserved better than that."
    He smiles, "I do it all over again. You and I were very happy together for a while."
    She nods, "But I was no Jenna. Jenna was the love of your life. You're soul mate."
    He nods, "Yes she was."
    Olivia sighs, "I don't think I'll ever find a love like that."
    He looks at her, "You know, there were times that I was worried about us because of that very reason."
    She is confused, "What?"
    He sighs, "A part of me was afraid that Bill would come back and you two would get back together."
    She laughs, "Me and Bill?"
    He nods, "Oh yeah. You two were great together. I was worried that I was just rebound."
    She smiles at him, "A guy like you could never be rebound."
    He laughs, "I have been rebound before."
    She laughs, "It's okay so have I."
    Buzz grins, "Your soul mate is out there somewhere. You just have to know where to look."
    Olivia hopes he's right.

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Annie is with Alan.
    Annie looks at him, "So you think I shouldn't rely on Dinah and Olivia in the long run?"
    He sits, "Of course not. Look at them. Did Dinah tell you she got shot in the head two years ago?"
    Annie nods, "I heard something about that."
    Alan nods, "The girl couldn't speak correctly, drive, or even hold down a job. And then there's Olivia. Another one of Springfield's lovely alcoholics. She may be sober now but it's only a matter of time before that bottle is back in her hands."
    Annie sighs, "I'm well aware of that."
    Alan sighs, "Come on! Look eventually they are going to get tired of this business stuff and they will go back to being simple housewives."
    Annie shakes her head, "Dinah isn't like that."
    Alan nods, "Well you may know Dinah well. But I know Olivia. Let me tell you something about Olivia Spencer. She may be heartless at times. Which as we both know is very helpful. But there are times where she gets it in her head that she is being to bad and has to stop it."
    Annie nods, "Really?"
    He nods, "We were together for a while. Then she got it in her head that I was bad and Phillip was good. Next thing I know she's pregnant with his child."
    Annie nods, "I'll be honest. I've been thinking of cutting Olivia from my team."
    Alan smiles, "Got anything in mind?"
    She sighs, "Well this is off the top of my head. But I may have a plan to get rid of Olivia and damage Phillip's reputation."
    He grins, "I like the sound of that. Two birds with one stone."
    Annie and Alan smile at each other.

    Cedars:
    Mel is getting a coffee.
    She is on her way back to the waiting room.
    Mel takes a deep breathe, "Everything will be okay. It has to be."
    Mel walks down the hall.
    She hears noise.
    Doctors and nurses are surrounding the room Alan Michael is in.
    She runs over, "What's going on? Where is my husband."

    Lillian walks over, "Mel. Alan Michael had an outburst. He attacked his doctor."
    Mel is in shock, "Oh my God! What happened?"
    Lillian sighs, "I don't know. But right now they are trying to calm him down and help the doctor."
    Mel cries, "This can't be happening."
    Lillian looks at her, "Mel, I may not know you too well. But after everything that happened with Rick and Beth... I just feel like I owe something to you."
    Mel is confused, "What are you talking about?"
    Lillian sighs, "Okay, Mel. Once everything settles down Alan Michael will either be sent to the police station or another option."
    Mel is confused, "What?"
    Lillian looks at her, "You can request that he is sent somewhere to get the help he needs. And honey I'm sorry but I am highly recommending as a friend that you do it."
    Mel can't believe what is happening.

    Everyone has a plan in Springfield...



    Harley's House:


    Phillip and Harley walk into her house.
    Harley hollers up the stairs, "Zach! Could you come down here for a minute please?"
    Zach comes down.
    Phillip smiles at him, "Hi."
    Zach nods, "Hey Dad. What's going on?"
    Harley sighs, "Well I told your father about Lincoln Prep and how you really wanted to go."
    Phillip looks at him, "You really do?"
    Zach nods, "I have some friends who are going there. And I mean when I was a little kid I used to always plan on going there like you did. It just makes sense."
    Harley sighs, "Well you have to keep in touch every single day and come home every chance you get."
    Zach grins, "So is that a yes?"
    Phillip turns to Harley, "As long as you promise to remember to keep in touch with your Mom."
    Harley shakes her head, "No, not just me. Your Dad too and of course Gus as well."
    Zach smiles, "I will."
    Zach hugs his parents.
    Harley and Phillip are finally glad the three of them can share a happy moment.



    Woods:


    Guillespie is with Lorelei.
    She looks into his eyes, "My name is Lorelei Hills."
    He laughs, "Come on you're pulling my leg."
    She shakes her head, "Nope. Sorry to break it to ya buddy but I'm not. Lorelei is my name."
    He shakes his head, "I remember you. You're Beth Spaulding."
    She sighs, "I'm not Beth."
    He laughs, "No you just look like her right?"
    Lorelei sighs, "Okay I guess one might argue that I am Beth. Beth suffers from multiple personalities."
    G laughs at her, "Oh you have got to be kidding me! So you're telling me that I'm talking to some fictional character in Beth's head?"
    She smiles, "Well I don't feel like no fictional character. Beth can't handle her stress. And when that happens she shuts down and that's when I get to take over."
    He looks at her, "So what happens when Beth is ready to come back?"
    Lorelei smiles, "She ain't comin' back. I'm not going anywhere."
    He is confused, "If that's true then why are you pretending to be Beth?"
    She sighs, "Because I have made a lot of enemies as Lorelei. This is just a way for me to go through Springfield."
    Guillespie nods, "How long are you planning to keep up this charade?"
    She grins, "Until I have everything I want."
    He is very interested in her.



    Teasers:


    Susan stares at the stage.
    Marina is dancing for everyone.
    Trey laughs, "Yeah, she came to me and was asking what she had to do to get a hook up on some stuff. I told her instead of letting her degrade herself I'd get her a job."
    Susan scoffs, "Oh yeah she is really respecting herself like this. This is sick."
    He smiles, "You want a job blondie?"
    She looks at him, "Get you're loser ass away from me."
    Trey laughs as he walks away.
    Once Marina is finished she walks backstage.
    Susan sneaks back there.
    Marina is changing.
    Susan walks up to her, "What are you doing?"
    Marina is shocked to see her, "How did you find me?"
    She sighs, "It doesn't matter. Marina what the hell is this? You were taking your clothes off for money."
    Marina shakes her head, "You have no idea what you're talking about Susan. It's not like that."
    Susan nods, "So what's it like then."
    Marina sighs, "I needed money. I'm not ever going to be a cop again. This is easy."
    Susan grabs Marina's arm, "You're done."
    Susan is dragging Marina out.



    Park:


    Liz is going on a walk.
    Remy approaches her, "Hey."
    She looks at him, "What's up?"
    He sighs, "Not much. I heard you lost."
    She nods, "Yep. I didn't even make it to the final ballot. They looked at me like I was a joke."
    He sighs, "I'd tell you I'm sorry but then I'd be lying."
    She walks past him, "Yeah."
    He turns to her, "I'd be lying because I think it was for the best. Being CEO would only make things worse for you."
    She laughs, "You aren't as smart as you think you are Remy."
    Remy nods, "So what are you going to do now?"
    She shakes her head, "I have no idea. I'm trying to adjust to normal life again. I'm not CEO, and probably won't be for another 20 years or so. Which is probably when I'll get to see my daughter again. I have no idea where she is or what she's doing."
    Remy sighs, "That's got to be rough."
    She nods, "You see if I were CEO I would have the power of everyone. Then I could have a better shot at bringing Sarah home, and bringing her home to a safe town."
    Remy sighs, "Sometimes I wonder if this town will ever be a real safe and happy place again."
    Liz nods, "It is. For some people."
    He looks at her, "But not for us?"
    The two stare at each other.



    Beacon:


    Olivia gets into the elevator.
    Just before the doors shut Alan jumps in.
    He grins, "Well hello Olivia."
    She sighs, "Hey Alan. How's your job as CEO going? Oops! That's right Annie is the CEO."
    Alan nods, "You must be pretty happy."
    She nods, "Oh I am. Finally a CEO who can handle the job."
    Alan shake his head, "Only a Spaulding can handle the job. One day Emma will be voting."
    Olivia shakes her head, "No. Emma will not be accepting any stock from Phillip."
    Alan laughs, "You can't force her at that age. By then she'll probably drop the Lewis at the end of her name too."
    She sighs, "Emma is Bill's daughter now. She has been most of her life and nothing you can do will change that."
    The elevator stops.
    Olivia gets off.
    Alan follows.
    Olivia turns to him, "Why are you up here?"
    He grins, "You may own half of the hotel Olivia but my wife owns the other half. I can go where I please."
    She shakes her head, "Last time I checked you had no clue where Natalia was. And I'm guess it's staying that way."
    Alan grabs Olivia by the arm, "I knew it."
    She pulls away, "You knew what?"
    He grins, "You manipulated Natalia just like you manipulated Mel. This whole thing has been some game for you, Dinah and Annie. Mel and Natalia are nothing more than your pawns."
    Olivia steps away from Alan.



    Cemetery:


    Michelle starts to walk away.
    Jesse follows her, "Come on where are you going?"
    She sighs, "What are you going to follow me there too?"
    He scoffs, "Would you stop it! I'm not following you."
    She turns around, "You're doing it right now!"
    He looks at her, "What is upsetting you so much?"
    She wipes her tears, "I came here to have a special moment at my mother's grave. And you take that opportunity to chase after me and try to break up my relationship with Bill."
    Jesse shakes his head, "You are paranoid. Not once, not once have I tried to break up what you have with Bill."
    She scoffs, "You follow me! You always show up where I am. At the barbecue, at my house, on the side of the road, now the cemetery?"
    He stares at her, "How could I have possibly known that stuff? Maybe you should think about whether or not this is all some sign. Did you stop to think about that?"
    She shakes her head, "No. Bill is who I was meant to be with after Danny! We had our fate. Ava's coma and Danny's death literally brought us together! The club they were working on brought us together."
    Jesse sighs, "Then if that's true then what are you so worried about with me Michelle?"
    She cries, "Because you're everywhere! I feel you everywhere I go. No matter where I go I see you whether you are there or not. It's not right and it's not fair Jesse."
    Jesse just stares at a crying Michelle.

    PART TWO:

    Harley's House:
    Phillip and Zach are alone in the living room.
    Zach sighs, "I can't wait to tell everyone I get to go."
    Phillip smiles, "I'm glad we could make you so happy son."
    Zach looks at him, "I'm sorry that it took me so long to give you a chance again."
    He shakes his head, "No. You have nothing to be sorry about. You had every right to feel the way you felt. I did horrible things when I was sick. I tried to use you guys and one of the worst things was hurting your mother and her family."
    Zach nods, "Yeah."
    Phillip looks at Zach, "I want you to know that it wasn't like that always. Your Mom and I were very close once. That's why we had you. We were very much in love and we had such a nice life. It just didn't exactly work out in the end."
    Zach looks at him, "Why are you telling me this?"
    He sighs, "I don't know. I guess I want you to understand that your Mom and I don't hate each other. I want to make it clear that I love you, Lizzie, James, Emma, and Penelope all the same."
    Zach sighs, "I guess.... I felt left out sometimes. Lizzie, James, and Penelope are your kids with Beth."
    Phillip nods, "I know. But I love you and Emma with all my heart, just as much as I love your siblings."
    Zach nods, "I hope Emma knows that."
    Phillip sighs, "I hope so too."
    Phillip hugs his son.

    Beacon:
    Olivia is with Alan in the hallway.
    She sighs, "You have no idea what you're talking about."
    Alan laughs, "Oh come on. Did you have a problem seeing me with another woman Olivia?"
    She scoffs, "Believe it or not Alan I'm over you. Our whole marriage was a huge joke."
    Alan shakes his head, "Sounds like all of your relationships."
    Olivia stares at him, "You don't know anything about my relationships."
    He nods, "You got together with my son to get back at me."
    She laughs, "Believe it or not Alan, I actually loved Phillip. But you, Lizzie, and all the other Spauldings couldn't let us be happy. And it made Phillip into a monster."
    Alan laughs, "So you married Bill Lewis. But that was just so you wouldn't get deported right?"
    She looks at him, "What's it to you?"
    Alan sighs, "Well I got married this year, Phillip got married a few months ago, now Bill is about to marry Michelle Bauer. Something tells me you've been craving a drink."
    She shakes her head, "I'm stronger than that. I have a daughter to protect from people like you."
    Alan nods, "While your oldest basket-case daughter is in the nuthouse."
    Olivia grabs Alan, "You shut your mouth! You shut up about my daughter!"
    Alan looks into her eyes, "You call me a bad parent Olivia. Why don't you take a hard look in the mirror."
    Alan walks away.
    A very upset Olivia goes into her room.

    Park:
    Liz and Remy sit on the bench.
    Remy looks at her, "So, got any plans for your next big adventure?"
    She shakes her head, "Nope. I'm tired of adventures. I guess I'll just continue working at Spaulding, taking care of my dog Roxy, and... that's about it for me."
    Remy nods, "Same here. Except I work for the SPD and I don't have a dog."
    She nods, "You should get one. They're great to talk to."
    He stares at her, "You talk to your dog?"
    She sighs, "Don't judge me."
    He laughs, "I just figured you'd be looking for some new guy to get together with."
    She shakes her head, "No. That never has worked out. Coop, Jonathan, Colin, none of them were right for me. And they were all so different from each other. I really don't want another relationship."
    Remy nods, "I know what you mean. Tammy, Natalia, Blake they all had other loves they weren't over."
    Liz looks at him, "Didn't you date that Stephanie?"
    He nods, "Only a rebound for Blake."
    Liz sighs, "So does that mean you're going to get back with her?"
    He shakes his head, "I don't know. A part of me thinks that I should get to have that one true love and Blake had that with Ross already."
    Liz shakes her head, "I don't know Remy. Sometimes I think that there are people who will just never find that one person that they were meant to be with."
    Liz and Remy sit on the bench and wonder what their futures hold.

    Teasers:
    Susan takes Marina outside.
    Marina pulls away, "Stop it!"
    Susan looks at her "We are leaving?"
    Marina shakes her head, "All of my stuff is still inside!"
    Susan nods, "Well we'll have your pimp Trey send it home to us okay? Just come on."
    Marina shakes her head, "Stop it! Stop treating me like I'm some moron who can't control herself."
    Susan looks at her, "I think you are the idiot who is trying out some desperate cry for help."
    Marina scoffs, "I didn't even tell you what I was doing! This is my job now."
    Susan shakes her head, "You don't expect me to believe this is your career now?"
    Marina shouts, "I don't have a career anymore! This is just what helps me pay the bills."
    Susan nods, "Oh now dealers have bills?"
    Marina just lights a cigarette and doesn't say anything.
    Susan sighs, "It's sick isn't it? Knowing the things you would do for it."
    Marina shakes her head, "You think this is what I wanted? I was supposed to marry Danny! We should have raised our child! I don't even know what my child looked like or what he sounded like. All I know is that I let him burn to death!"
    Susan has tears in her eyes, "I'm so sorry. But Marina there is nothing we can do to bring him back. We can't bring back Danny and we can't bring back your baby. All you can do is try to..."
    Marina shouts, "What? Make them proud. Do you think you're dead adoptive parents are proud of what you've become?"
    Now Susan is crying.
    Marina runs away from Susan.
    Susan is beginning to see so much of herself in Marina.

    Woods:
    Lorelei and Guillespie stand by each other.
    Guillespie looks at her, "So how much is my silence gonna get me?"
    She sighs, "I'll give you a nice little cut once I get my share. Then I'll be out of this town."
    He shakes his head, "No sweetheart. I want half."
    She turns to him, "Half? Are you outta you're damn mind boy?"
    He laughs, "Come on. It's not like I'm going to just sit and look pretty. I work for my money."
    She smiles, "What did you have in mind?"
    He looks into her eyes, "Whatever you need. I have no other reason to be in Springfield. My brother is ashamed of me, my girlfriend has moved on. I think this will give me something to do."
    She sighs, "What can you do? I mean the Spaulding hate you because you're a constant reminder of what they did to Tammy. There is no way they will let you anywhere near them."
    He nods, "Truth. But I'm good at one thing. I can do the dirty work. It's my specialty."
    Lorelei turns and thinks.
    He puts his arms around her, "You can't have Beth Spaulding getting her hands dirty. But me, no one even knows I'm in Springfield. Besides, a partner can make things twice as fun."
    Lorelei turns to him, "Okay partner. You got yourself a deal."
    The two shake hands.

    Cemetery:
    Michelle has to sit down on the ground.
    Jesse looks at her, "Do you really mean everything that you just said to me Michelle?"
    She looks up, "Why would I lie?"
    He sits next to her, "I wish you didn't feel that way."
    She is confused, "What?"
    He looks at her, "You can't let your feelings get in the way of what you have with Bill."
    She shakes her head, "What are you talking about?"
    He sighs, "You have to forget about all of this Michelle. You are happy with Bill."
    She shakes her head, "So you don't want me?"
    He looks at her, "Michelle, look at you. This is what me being around you does to you. I'm not going to let you get hurt by me."
    She wipes her tears, "Just stop it Jesse! I am sick and tired of mind games and crap."
    Jesse shakes his head, "It's not a mind game. If you look me in the eyes and tell me you want to marry Bill then I'll leave."
    Michelle stares at him, "What?"
    He nods, "You heard me."
    Michelle looks down.
    Jesse stares at her.
    She looks up at him, "I am marrying Bill."
    Jesse gets up.
    He walks over to his car.
    Michelle watches him as he leaves.
    Michelle looks over and sees Danny's grave.
    A very confused Michelle continues crying.

    Beacon:



    David is home for lunch.
    Lucy is with him, "So how are your cases going?"
    David nods, "Okay I'm just really busy taking over for Mallet while he's out of town."
    Lucy sighs, "What about the special case?"
    David looks at her, "Lucy I don't even know what to do with this."
    She is upset, "David! It has been 3 months! 3 months since Aubrey Cross kidnapped Marina's baby and Marina still doesn't know that her child is even alive."
    He turns to her, "We don't know that for sure. Even if the baby survived the fire how do we know that psychopath Aubrey didn't.... I just don't think it would be right to get Marina's hope up."
    Lucy looks at him, "But what if her baby is alive?"
    He sighs, "And what if it's not? Do you want her to lose her child all over again?"
    She cries, "I'm sorry. I try and put it out of my mind but how can I? This is my niece. And she is mourning a child that my not even be dead. I don't know what to do."
    He nods, "Neither do I."
    She looks at him, "I need a straight up answer David. What are the chances that you will find Aubrey and the baby?"
    David sighs, "Honestly, the chances are slim to none."
    Lucy is completly torn.



    Outskirts:


    Susan walks in.
    She goes to the bar, "Hey, have you seen my cousin in here. Marina. She's the redhead?"
    A guys hollers from across the bar, "Marina?"
    Susan walks over, "You know her?"
    He laughs, "Oh yeah I know Marina."
    She scoffs, "Who the hell are you?"
    He smiles, "They call me Trey."
    She sighs, "Okay Trey. How do you know Marina?"
    He sits back, "You a cop?"
    She sighs, "Oh so you're her dealer or something?"
    He gets up, "I don't need this crap."
    She walks to him, "Listen, I'm not cop. My name is Susan Lemay. I'm more of criminal than a cop."
    He looks at her, "Susan Lemay... didn't you work with that Australian dude? Mark Guillespie? Whatever happened to him?"
    She nods, "He is in the nuthouse okay. Now do you know where I can find Marina?"
    He smiles, "Oh yes. Follow me."
    He walks out of the bar.
    Susan has a pocket knife in her hand just in case.
    She follows him.



    Woods:


    Lorelei is walking through the woods.
    She is on her cell phone.
    She is in need of privacy.
    She is chatting with a friend from Texas, "Hey it's Lorelei, I know I haven't heard from you in ages either.... I know. Well I'm actually thinking about coming home. I might be running into some money soon... I'll explain later but right now... hello?"
    She lost a signal.
    She tries again, "Hey! Hey it's Lorelei...."

    Guillespie, who was walking around, sees her.
    She turns around and freaks, "Oh God!"
    He walks up to her, "Hello."
    She goes back to Beth's voice, "You. You are the guy the hit man. I thought you were locked up."
    Guillespie grins, "I'm free."
    She shakes her head, "Well if you know what's good for you. You'll leave town. You made a lot of enemies."
    He smiles, "Yeah. Though there is someone I haven't made an enemy of yet."
    She shakes her head, "What?"
    He smiles, "Who is Lorelei?"
    Lorelei gets nervous.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Phillip is in the living room.
    Harley walks in, "I'm here."
    He smiles, "Hello. That was quick."
    The two hug.
    He looks at her, "So you wanted to talk about Zach?"
    She hands him a pamphlet, "Zach brought me this."
    Phillip looks, "Lincoln Prep?!?"
    She nods, "Yes. Apparently he applied to go there and he got in. He just never told me."
    Phillip is confused, "Zach wants to go to Lincoln Prep?"
    She nods, "I guess Alan finally convinced him. I have mixed feelings about it and I wanted to get your opinion."
    Phillip sighs, "I really wanted to bond with him more but if he really wants to go here... it's a great opportunity."
    Harely looks at him, "Did you enjoy Lincoln Prep?"
    He shakes his head, "Honestly at the time no. But looking back, I'm glad I went there."
    She sighs, "Well I mean I know it's a good thing. But maybe the selfish part of me doesn't want to say goodbye. He's only 14."
    Phillip nods, "I know. It was tough for you when Susan went to boarding school. It was tough for me when Lizzie went. But you know James is planning to go there next year. Maybe Jude will too."
    Harley shakes her head, "Don't say that! I'm holding onto Jude!"
    The two share a laugh.



    Cross Creek:


    Olivia knocks on the door.
    Josh answers, "Hey."
    She smiles, "Hi. Is Bill home? I'd like to talk to him."
    Josh shakes his head, "Bill is out."
    She sighs, "Oh. Well thanks Josh."
    She goes to leave.
    He stops her, "You want to come in for a little while?"
    Olivia nods, "Sure."
    Josh walks her in, "How have you been Olivia?"
    She smiles, "Good. The Beacon is doing great and I had a huge help in Annie Dutton's success."
    Josh grins, "Ah, my ex wives working together. I'm sure that was fun."
    Olivia laughs, "Yeah well we all get together once a year and plot Reva's death."
    Josh nods, "I knew it."
    Olivia sighs, "You and I haven't talked a whole lot since last year huh? When we broke up again."
    Josh nods, "Oh yes. That was supposed to be a lot better for us. Because I was going to be with Reva and you were going to be with Bill. Look where we are now."
    Olivia nods, "Well lucky you, Reva isn't about to marry someone else."
    Josh is confused, "If I didn't know any better, I'd think you weren't to happy about Bill marrying Michelle."
    She sighs, "Would I be a terrible person if I said you were right?"
    Josh stares at Olivia for a moment.



    Cemetery:


    Michelle is walking through the cemetery.
    She stops at her mother's grave.
    She lays flowers down.
    She smiles, "Hi Mommy. I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I really wish you could be at my wedding. But then again there are a lot of things I wish you were here for."
    Michelle sits down.
    She sighs, "I am weeks away from marrying little Billy Lewis. He goes by Bill now. I think it's comforting knowing that you knew Bill. I think you'd be happy."
    Michelle has tears in her eyes.
    Michelle looks down, "I feel selfish because of how jealous I am. I'm so jealous when I see my friends going shopping with their Moms, and bragging about their Moms. And I know in my heart that I had the best Mom in the whole world."
    Michelle can feel Maureen with her.
    Michelle smiles, "I can feel you. I can feel you in my heart. I just I know I ask you this all the time but I just need you to let me know that I'm doing the right thing. I want to marry Bill I do. But I just need your approval please."
    Michelle hears footsteps.
    Jesse is standing across the cemetery.


    PART TWO:

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Phillip and Harley sit on the couch.
    Phillip looks at her, "Well I think it's only fair of me to ask this. Did you talk to Gus about this yet?"
    Harley shakes her head, "I haven't talked to Gus in a while. I just can't handle it right now."
    Phillip sighs, "Well I'm not going to tell you what to do. But I feel like... as much as I hate saying it, Gus has been more of a father to Zach than I have."
    She nods, "I know."
    He sighs, "But you are Zach's mother so if you don't want Gus involved then I'll respect that."
    Harley looks at him strangely, "I'm still getting used to you being like this. I mean there was a time where you tried to take Zach away from me because of Gus."
    Phillip nods, "It's in the past."
    She smiles, "I'm glad. It's been a long long long time since we could actually be friend."
    Phillip sighs, "Sadly I don't think Zach remembers a time where we were ever getting a long."
    She sighs, "Sometimes I wish he could see what were like before. We were so close."
    Phillip grins, "Once upon a time."
    The two smile at each other.

    Cross Creek:
    Josh sits with Olivia.
    Josh sighs, "So, you are thinking that you might still have some feelings for Bill?"
    She shakes her head, "I didn't say that. It's just I don't like the idea of him being with someone else."
    Josh laughs, "Well I've been there."
    Olivia looks at him, "But never with me."
    He sighs, "Well I wasn't thrilled about you marrying my nephew."
    She sighs, "But it's not the same was with Reva."
    He shakes his head, "No it's not."
    Olivia nods, "Because she was the love of your life. I mean that was the reason I think we always had problems. I knew in my heart that I was never going to be the love of your life."
    He sighs, "We shared something special Olivia."
    She has tears in her eyes, "At this point in my life... I am worried that I'll never find the love of my life."
    Josh sighs, "I'm sorry Olivia."
    She looks at him, "I think that is why this is so hard. I really thought it was going to be Bill."
    Josh looks at her, "All I can say to you Olivia is never give up on finding love."
    She gets up, "I don't have time for that. I have a daughter who needs me to be strong for her. I have to get back to her. It was nice talking to you Josh. Thanks."
    Olivia leaves the cabin.

    Cemetery:
    Jesse starts to walk towards Michelle.
    She shakes her head, "No! No! I am done! I am sick and tired of this Jesse! Stop!"
    Jesse is confused, "What are you talking about?"
    She looks at him, "You can't keep following me! It was one thing when you were showing up at random places. But this is my mother's grave. This is not some game."
    He shows her the flowers, "I brought these for her. I didn't know you would be here."
    She shakes her head, "You expect me to believe you just happened to show up when I did?"
    He kneels down, "I didn't know your Mom. But her heart is beating inside of me. She is keeping me alive. And ever since I came to town I've been wanting to come do this."
    She looks at him, "Then why now?"
    He looks up, "I have no idea. Just something in my heart was telling me to do it today."
    She has tears in her eyes.
    Jesse lays the flowers down on Maureen's grave, "Thank you for everything. You saved my life. And you raised the most amazing woman in the entire world. Thank you."
    Michelle is confused and mixed up.

    Beacon:
    Lucy sits down.
    David sits next to her, "I'm sorry but Aubrey Cross was able to leave town without anyone knowing. She was able to commit all of these crimes before we realized it was her. She had a good plan. She fooled everyone. Not to mention the fact we don't know much about her. And the only person who would is Jonathan Randall and we don't know where he is."
    Lucy wipes her tears, "But what if Marina's baby is out there?"
    David shakes his head, "Aubrey is a psychopath. The idea of the baby still being alive."
    Lucy cries, "Oh God!"
    He takes her hand, "I know this is tough. But it's very complicated. What are we supposed to do with Marina. Give her all of our theories and crazy possibilities. When we know that she might get her hopes up only to be hit twice as hard."
    Lucy shakes her head, "But Marina is mourning a child that might not be dead. I can't let that happen."
    David sighs, "Marina is strong. I think she is going to find a way to deal with this. I mean you know Marina."



    Teasers:
    Susan is led into the club.
    Trey grins, "This is the place."
    She scoffs, "This is sick. I know about this place. Okay my Aunt Cassie used to work here."
    He laughs, "Really? What did she go by?"
    She shoves him, "Just stop messing with me! I thought you were going to show me Marina."
    The announcer comes on, "Gentleman get stop what you're doing! Put your hands up! And spread em! Here comes officer busty!"
    A lady comes out in a skanky police uniform.
    She starts putting on a show for the men.
    Guys are practically throwing their money at her.
    Susan shakes her head, "I didn't come to watch stupid whores demean themselves for you pervs."
    Trey smiles, "Take a closer look."
    Susan stares at the dancer.
    Susan's mouth drops.
    IT'S MARINA!!!


    Woods:
    Lorelei stands face to face with Guillespie.
    She steps away, "You need to get away from me."
    He smiles, "Who is Lorelei?"
    She shakes her head, "No one."
    He grins, "You know ladies love my Australian accent. But that accent you got is hot too."
    She shakes her head, "I don't know what you're talking about."
    He gets closer, "But the thing is is sounded very real. You could be an actress."
    She walks away, "I'm out of here."
    He follows her, "Is Beth your real name or are you just playing a game on the whole town?"
    She keeps walking, "I have lived here for a long time, I have 3 children here. People know I'm Beth Raines Spaulding."
    He laughs, "Well then who is Lorelei."
    She shouts, "Nobody!"
    He nods, "Okay well then I'll go ask some people in town. Maybe that daughter of yours will no."
    She grabs him, "You stay away from her!"
    He smiles, "Then tell me who Lorelei is."
    She drops the Beth act, "Fine! Okay sugar you got it! I'm Lorelei. Lorelei Hills."
    He laughs, "If you're Lorelei then where is Beth?"
    Lorelei smiles, "Little Miss Beth is gone. And she's never coming back."
    Guillespie is confused and intrigued.

    People want to help their loved ones in Springfield...



    Harley's House:


    Cyrus is with his brother.
    Cyrus looks at him, "Susan has been sleeping around with Gus Aitoro since Spring."
    Guillespie shakes his head, "No. No Susan wouldn't do that to me. We are in love."
    Cyrus sighs, "I'm so sorry you found out like this."
    G shakes his head, "No! The only reason I was working on myself and getting better was so I could come back for her."
    Cyrus nods, "I know."
    G is angry, "Now what's the point? What's to stop me from going back to my old ways?"
    Cyrus grabs him, "Don't! Don't talk like that. You have changed. And I'm proud of you. Don't give up on everything you've worked so hard for just because some girl turns her back on you. That's what I did. When Dinah turned her back on me I gave up on myself. I won't let you make the same mistakes that I made. You hear me?"
    Guillespie nods.
    Cyrus looks at him, "Now I know you're a free man. But people in Springfield are not going to be happy to see you."
    G scoffs, "So?"
    Cyrus looks at him, "So we need to get you out of here."
    Cyrus is worried about his brother.



    Farmhouse:


    Jeffrey is with Marah.
    Jeffrey looks at her, "I'm sorry but me and you getting married will never happen."
    She gets upset, "Why? Why do you have to say that? Are you trying to just break my heart."
    He sighs, "I'm trying stop you from getting your hopes up!"
    She sighs, "You are basically telling me that you would never marry someone like me."
    He shakes his head, "I'm not saying that. I am not a marriage person. I don't understand it and I don't agree with it. I will never get married to someone Marah."
    Marah has tears in her eyes, "I don't know why you are so stubborn. I don't know what is wrong with you.
    Jeffrey sighs, "It's just how I always felt."
    She nods, "But time changes things. I mean look at you, you're living in a farmhouse with me and RJ, did you ever expect that to happen. I mean I sure didn't."
    Jeffrey shakes his head, "No I didn't. But Marah I just don't feel like marriage is for me. I never have."
    Marah cries, "So basically what you are telling me is that as long as I'm with you I'll never be married?"
    Marah is very upset with him.



    Reva Bend:


    Noah pulls up in front of Reva's house.
    Reva turns to him, "Thank you so much Noah for bringing me home. I really appreciate it."
    Noah nods, "No problem. I'm your doctor and it's my job to make sure that you are okay."
    Reva grins, "Oh right. You're my doctor. See ya Doc."
    Reva gets out and walks towards her house.
    Noah watches her.
    Reva is close to the door when she stumbles.
    Noah races out of the car, "Reva! Reva!"
    Reva almost falls.
    Noah runs over and helps her, "Reva! Are you okay?"
    She nods, "Yeah I'm fine. I just got really dizzy, I reached for something to lean on but nothing was there. Sorry."
    He sighs, "It's fine I got here in time for you to lean on."
    She grins, "Thank you Noah."
    Noah helps her to the door.
    She unlocks the door and opens it.
    Noah walks her in.
    She sits on her couch, "I appreciate all of this."
    Noah looks around, "Is there anything else I can do?"
    She shakes her head, "I'm no damsel in distress Noah. You can go now if you like."
    He hesitates, "Oh... yeah I should."
    She smiles at him, "Unless you don't want to."
    Noah doesn't know what to say to her.
    Reva Shayne is very confident in herself.



    Cedars:


    Mel is looking for her mother.
    Rick sees her, "Mel."
    She turns, "Rick hi!"
    The two hug.
    Rick smiles, "What are you doing here?"
    She grins, "I was just going to have lunch with my Mom but she might be busy right now."
    Rick nods, "Well she is a busy woman. Hey how is Alan Michael?"
    She sighs, "He's uh... it's complicated right now. But we are getting through it."
    He sighs, "I'm worried, from what Phillip told me Alan Michael is pretty stressed out."
    Mel nods, "Well you know it's this whole Spaulding thing."
    Rick smiles, "Well I'm glad my cousin has the best wife in the world to lean on right now. I know that for a fact."
    Mel shakes her head, "I'm sorry but I can't accept that title."
    Rick sighs, "Come on you are the best wife a man could ever ask for Mel. You know that."
    She shakes her head, "No I'm not. I feel like I already totally let Alan Michael down. And you know if I had been a better wife to you then maybe... things wouldn't have turned out the way they did."
    Rick hates seeing Mel so upset.



    Carriage House:


    Blake walks into the house.
    Kevin walks over, "Hey Mom."
    She looks at him, "Hi sweetheart. How are you?"
    He nods, "I'm good. I don't have anything to do so I'm just going to chill at home today"
    She smiles, "Oh well okay. Well maybe later we can go out to lunch, just you and me?"
    He nods, "Sure."
    Kevin goes and sits in front of the TV.
    Blake sits next to him, "You know Jason is really enjoying himself at Springfield U. It's not to late for you to enroll again."
    Kevin shakes his head, "Mom college just isn't for me."
    Blake nods, "That's fine. I was just suggesting it. I mean I know you've been bored and everything."
    Kevin sighs, "I need a job. I've been applying everywhere."
    Blake grins, "Well how about I try and get you a job down at the station? I mean I have some pull down there and so does your sister Dinah. I think it might be fun for you."
    He nods, "Yeah we can check it out."
    She hugs him, "Well good that's one problem. Now I can throw on my matchmaker hat and we'll get a nice girl for you."
    Kevin can't take his mind of Rocky.



    Beacon:


    Olivia is in her room.
    There is a knock on the door.
    Bill is there with Emma.
    Emma walks in, "Hey Mom."
    Olivia hugs her, "Hey! How was your Dad's?"
    She smiles, "Good I have to call Leah."
    Emma goes to her room.
    Olivia looks at him, "Do you want to come in for some coffee?"
    He nods, "Sure."
    She lets him in, "So, I was hoping we could talk about this whole Phillip thing while she's in the other room."
    Bill nods, "Of course. So what's going on?"
    She sighs, "Well the restraining order is going to be reviewed again in a few weeks. And then a judge can decide whether to lift it and give Phillip parental rights."
    Bill nods, "And you think Phillip is still dangerous?"
    She sighs, "Honestly right now no. But look at Alan Michael. A while ago he seemed fine. If Phillip gets to stressed out he will break down again. Last time he tried to kidnap all the children. He could do it again. I have spent so much time protecting Emma from the Spauldings. I will not let them get to her again."
    Bill looks at her, "Of course we won't. Phillip gave up his rights along time ago. We are Emma's parents. We raised her. I'm not going to let Phillip take her from us again."
    Olivia hugs him.

    PART TWO:

    Reva Bend:
    Reva smiles at Noah.
    Noah looks at her, "I don't even... Reva I am your doctor and you need to remember that."
    She laughs, "Don't be such a baby. You can stay and hang out at my house Noah. It's not weird."
    He nods, "It's very weird."
    She shakes her head, "It would only be weird if were... I don't know, naked. It wouldn't be new but it would be weird."
    She laughs.
    Noah has a nervous laugh, "You seem different but the same all at the same time."
    She looks at him, "How so?"
    He grins, "It feels like you are more of the Reva that you always were. Like you have finally realized who you really are."
    She sighs, "More like remembered. Like I told you Jonathan reminded me of who I am. But I think oddly enough cancer reminded me. I fought cancer... not on my own I had great doctors and Billy and Jonathan and Lizzie. But I didn't have Josh or any other guy who I had to go to in order to fight my battles. That is me. That is Reva Shayne."
    Noah smiles at her, "I think that is the perfect attitude you are going to need to get through this."
    She grins, "Thank you."
    He looks at his watch, "I should get back to the hospital. I'll see you later Reva."
    She waves, "See ya Noah."
    Noah walks out.
    He has a big smile on his face while he goes back to the car.

    Cedars:
    Mel sits in a chair.
    Rick sits next to her, "Mel I don't want to hear you blame yourself for Alan Michael and I sure as hell don't want to hear you blame yourself for what happened to us."
    Mel turns to him, "I blame you too don't worry."
    He nods, "Well good."
    She sighs, "But I kept pushing you away when I should have been working on our marriage and that's why you slept with Beth."
    Rick shakes his head, "Don't do this to yourself."
    She sighs, "I shouldn't have let things get that bad. That's what I did with Alan Michael I let things get worse and worse. We're newlyweds and I don't even know how long our marriage will last."
    Rick hugs Mel, "I'm sorry. You deserve so much more than what you've been given Mel."
    Mel pulls away, "Don't do that. Don't praise me. I don't deserve to be praised."
    He nods, "Yes you do."
    She shakes her head, "No. That's my problem. People just compliment me on my skills and my achievments but ignore my flaws. Maybe if people had then my life wouldn't be so screwed up."
    Mel gets up and leaves.
    Rick worries about his ex-wife.

    Beacon:
    Olivia is sitting with Bill.
    She looks at him, "You know Emma is really excited for your wedding. She talks about it all the time."
    Bill nods, "Yeah I think it's going to be great. I hope you can come."
    She sighs, "Um... I just don't know. I mean Michelle is a nice woman, she's great with the kids. But it's just, it would be uncomfortable for me to be there."
    Bill is confused, "You didn't seem that bothered by it before."
    She nods, "Well honestly maybe it's because I had so much hope for me and Gus. That didn't happen."
    He looks at her, "You don't want me to be with someone unless you are?"
    She sighs, "No! I didn't mean for it to come out like that. I'm sorry. I just feel like... it's been almost a year since everything fell apart for us. I'm sure that has something to do with it."
    Bill sighs, "I'm sorry I didn't think of it like that."
    She shakes her head, "I'm just selfish and I'm sorry. I don't know why. I guess it was different then with Josh, Alan, and Phillip. With them I never really believed I was going to be with them forever. But with you... there was a time where I thought we might be."
    Bill looks at her, "I did too. Hey but I gotta get going back home to HB. But I'll call you later."
    She nods, "Okay sure."
    He goes to the door and turns, "You know Olivia, if it makes you feel better, I wouldn't want to watch you get married again."
    Bill lets that sit with her and then leaves.

    Carriage House:
    Blake sits next to Kevin.
    Blake looks at him, "So are there any girls that you are interested in? Anyone you've been flirting with?"
    Kevin gets uncomfortable, "Mom! Stop!"
    She smiles, "Come on! I've always been a cool Mom that you can talk to about this stuff."
    Kevin shakes his head, "No Mom is that cool."
    Blake sighs, "I'm sorry. But you just seem so down on yourself lately. I don't want you to forget what an amazing man you are."
    He sighs, "Mom don't."
    She looks at him, "I'm serious. I know last year was rough. After everything that happened with Rocky Cooper. But it's in the past and I think Rocky has forgiven you. I don't know I don't see him much. I hear he is becoming a cop now."
    Kevin gets up, "I don't want to talk about Rocky Cooper."
    She looks at him, "I'm sorry. You're right. It's in the past. Nothing we need to worry about now."
    Kevin walks away.
    He begins to wonder if he will ever be able to tell anyone about his relationship with Rocky.
    Blake turns and looks at a picture of Ross.
    She'd give anything to have him here.



    Old Cabin:
    Cyrus pulls up in front of the cabin.
    Guillespie gets out, "Seriously?"
    Cyrus gets out, "You need to lay low."
    G scoffs, "Why? I'm a free man now."
    Cyrus turns to him, "You don't get it do you?"
    He nods, "I think I do get it. You've got this whole new life here and you don't want me to ruin it. So you're gonna hide me here. Hide me from you're new friends."
    Cyrus shakes his head, "No. It's not like that. I'm doing this for you own good."
    Guillespie scoffs, "I'm sure."
    Cyrus grabs him, "Do you know how many people would love to see you dead? You being here is a danger for you. If you go out on the street you can guarantee you'll be attacked."
    Guillespie shakes his head, "I'll be fine."
    Cyrus looks at him, "Really? Think of the people you've kidnapped, the places you've burned down... think of the people you killed."
    Guillespie looks at him, "Fine."
    Cyrus hugs him, "I'll be back to check on you."
    Cyrus gets into his car and drives off.
    Guillespie has no idea what his future will be now.

    Farmhouse:
    Marah walks away.
    Jeffrey walks to her, "I'm not trying to upset you. I'm being honest with you Marah."
    She cries, "You don't ever want to marry me."
    He takes her, "Marah, we don't need some papers and signatures telling us what we mean to each other."
    Marah shakes her head, "It's more than that."
    He shakes his head, "No. It's not. Believe me I've married people before. It's all just legal stuff. What two people share between them should have nothing to do with what's on paper."
    Marah sighs, "Jeffrey-"
    He looks at her, "Don't you think our relationship is fine the way it is?"
    She nods, "Of course."
    He smiles, "Why fix something that isn't broken?"
    Jeffrey's phone goes off.
    Jeffrey looks at it, "I have to take this I'll be right back."
    Jeffrey steps outside.
    Marah looks at the dresses she designed.
    She sighs, "We will be married Jeffrey. You'll see. We are going to have all our dreams come true and you won't ruin that for me."
    Marah goes into the other room to fix her makeup.

    The past comes back to bite you Springfield...



    Spaulding Mansion:



    Alan walks down to the living room.
    Blake is standing there.
    He smiles, "Well it's nice to see you again Blake."
    Blake sighs, "Shut up Alan."
    He grins, "Oh if you were angry at me you wouldn't have come here. Now what did you want."
    She walks over to him, "I am here to tell you that you are not to tell anyone what happened between us."
    He laughs, "Oh are you worried it's going to ruin your reputation? I'd say that's about 20 years to late."
    Blake shakes her head, "We were drunk. We were angry and we were hurt. It didn't mean anything."
    Alan sighs, "Of course it didn't. What do you think I wanted you to come over and ask me to go to dinner? What we had was nothing more than sex. No more, and no less."
    She scoffs, "Much less."
    He laughs, "Oh but the other day you were singing a different tune."
    She shoves him, "You are sick!"
    He takes her hands, "Don't you touch me like that again. And don't you dare play the victim. We both needed each other whether you like it or not. You wanted it too."
    Blake shakes her head, "The only reason I started working with you in the first place is because I want Remy. I don't want anything else to do with you Alan."
    Alan smiles, "Don't worry Blake. This won't get in the way of our partnership together."
    Blake is so angry at herself.




    Towers:


    Annie was meeting with business men.
    She walks away, "It was wonderful meeting with you gentleman. I hope to see those papers soon."
    Josh walks over to her, "Hi."
    She smiles, "Josh! Hi, how are you?"
    He grins, "I'm good. Congratulations Ms. CEO of Spaulding Enterprises. You took down all of the Spauldings huh?"
    Annie smiles, "Yes I did."
    Josh sighs, "Well I'm gonna warn you, Lewis Enterprises is new but we are more than capable of making a name for ourselves."
    She grins, "Well with you working there I'm sure you're gonna give us a run for out money."
    Josh laughs, "Well I have to say if someone has to be heading the Spaulding company, I'm kind of glad it's you."
    She smiles, "Thank you Josh. We should do lunch sometime."
    He nods, "I'd like that, I kind of need a break from everything going on with my family."
    Annie gets concerned, "Is everything okay? Are Marah and Shayne okay?"
    He nods, "Oh they are fine, they are just worried about their Mom."
    Annie chuckles, "What's Reva done now?"
    Josh realizes she doesn't know, "Reva has cancer."
    Annie is stunned by this.




    Cedars:


    Reva walks into the hospital.
    Lillian approaches her, "Hello honey. How are you feeling today?"
    Reva grins, "I'm good. I got another appointment. I am feeling good about today."
    Lillian smiles, "I am too. My family has had some rough times but I just think today will be relaxing and happy."
    Reva grins, "I brought some pictures of my family to help me."
    Lillian grins, "Let me see!"
    Reva takes them out, "I got one of all the kids, and of course my lovely granddaughters."
    Lillian smiles, "Oh."
    Reva takes one, "This is the last one Jonathan took of Sarah before he left town again."
    Lillian smiles, "There is our girl. She's got all of Jonathan's nice features and Lizzie's beautiful smile."
    Reva sighs, "I miss them."
    Lillian nods, "I know. One day we'll see them again I just know it. You have to have hope."
    Reva nods, "That's one thing I do have. Hope that whatever my future holds is good, even if I'm not expecting it."
    The two women hug.



    Cross Creek:


    Vanessa is getting ready for work.
    Dinah lets herself in, "Mom."
    Vanessa walks over, "Dinah? What a nice surprise honey."
    Dinah shakes her head, "No it's not."
    Vanessa looks at her, "Is everything okay?"
    Dinah sighs, "No. My children have been kidnapped and so has Maureen."
    Vanessa gasps, "Oh my God! What?"
    Dinah nods, "Mallet left with them and I have absolutely no idea where they are now."
    Vanessa gets angry, "Dinah!!! Don't you ever ever ever do that to me again! Don't you ever, do you understand me?"
    Dinah looks at her, "This is serious Mom. Mallet has taken all of them and I don't know where they are!"
    Vanessa sighs, "Maureen told me that she was going on a family trip Dinah. He didn't force her."
    Dinah looks at her, "You knew about this?"
    Vanessa shakes her head, "I assumed you were going with them. How could they have left without you knowing?"
    Dinah sighs, "I was in a meeting! I've been really busy.'
    Vanessa nods, "I'm well aware of how busy you've been sweetheart."
    Dinah turns to her, "What is that supposed to mean?"
    Vanessa sighs, "Honey, maybe Mallet did this to open your eyes. You are losing everything."
    Dinah is stunned by her mother's words.



    Farmhouse:


    Michelle is back with Marah.
    Marah is showing her the designs.
    Michelle smiles, "It's perfect. Did you work on the bridesmaids dresses for me yet?"
    Marah nods, "Oh yes here they are. Oh and I need to know who the maid of honor is before I finish that one. Just to help plan it."
    Michelle looks at her, "I guess we haven't made it official then have we Marah?"
    Marah is confused, "What?"
    Michelle takes her hand, "Marah you are my best girlfriend. Will you be my maid of honor?"
    Marah hugs her, "Of course! Oh my God! I'd be honored. Oh Michelle I'm so happy!"
    Michelle grins, "Who else would I ask? Marah you have been my friend for so long. You're Bill's cousin. Of course."
    Marah looks at her, "Well who will your bridesmaids be?"
    Michelle sighs, "Well I was planning on having Bill's sisters. Dinah, Maureen, and Mindy if she is in town."
    Marah grins, "This is going to be the most beautiful wedding ever."
    Michelle smiles, "Well maybe it won't be long before we are planning your wedding."
    Marah has a big smile on her face with that idea.



    Harley's House:


    Cyrus and Harley walk downstairs.
    Harley kisses him, "I have to get going to work."
    Cyrus grins, "Okay, I'm going to miss you."
    She smiles, "Will you be here when I get back?"
    He takes her hand, "Of course."
    The two kiss.
    Harley grabs her purse, "See ya."
    Harley leaves.
    Cyrus is very happy to be back with Harley.
    Everything is going right.
    A few minutes go by and there is a knock on the door.
    He rushes, "Did you forget something?"
    He opens it up and is stunned, "What are you doing here?"

    Guillespie is standing there, "Hey big brother. I'm here."
    Cyrus backs up, "What is going on? Did you run?"
    He shakes his head, "No. I was released. They decided that I was mentally stable and able to rejoin the community."
    Cyrus is in shock, "So you're out for good?"
    Guillespie grins, "I'm back!"
    Cyurs can't believe it, "I thought it would be years!"
    He nods, "Where is Susan? I have to see her."
    Cyrus is worried about what to tell him.

    PART TWO:

    Cross Creek:
    Dinah is upset with her mother.
    Dinah looks at her, "How dare you. How dare you side with Mallet over me! I'm you're daughter!"
    Vanessa shakes her head, "I'm not siding! There shouldn't even be sides, you two are married."
    Dinah sighs, "Mallet is sneaking around behind my back. He is manipulating our children. My children! Belinda isn't his daughter!"
    Vanessa shakes her head, "I can't believe you would say that. Mallet loves Belinda, he adopted her with you. I hope he never has to hear you say that to him."
    Dinah laughs, "Oh poor Mallet right? He has to deal with your evil bitch of a daugther?"
    Vanessa shakes her head, "I never said that."
    Dinah looks at her "Why don't you just follow me around 24/7 that way you can walk up to every person I meet and apologize for what a horrible person I am? That would be great."
    Vanessa sighs, "We have come so far Dinah let's not do this now. We need to talk like adults."
    Dinah looks at her mother, "I can see it in your eyes. You helped them. You helped Mallet with this. I bet this was all your idea. You are trying to break up my marriage."
    Vanessa gets angry, "Oh stop it Dinah!"
    Dinah looks at her, "No! You stop it! You stay away from me and my family. No one is going to take my life from me. No one."
    Dinah storms out leaving Vanessa shaken.

    Farmhouse:


    Marah and Michelle are still in the kitchen.
    Jeffrey walks in, "Hey! You two having fun?"
    Michelle hugs him, "Jeffrey. How have you been?"
    He grins, "Great, how are the kids?"
    She smiles, "Just great. I just came over to chat with my maid of honor over here."
    Jeffrey smiles, "Well Michelle you picked the right woman."
    Marah gets up, "Hey Baby!"
    The two kiss.
    Michelle gets her purse, "I have to get going I'll leave you two love birds alone."
    Marah grins, "Thanks for coming. And hey I already promise that you will be the maid of honor at our wedding."
    Jeffrey looks at Marah but doesn't say anything.
    Michelle smiles, "I'm going to hold you to that."
    Marah hugs her, "See ya."
    Michelle walks to the door, "Bye. Bye Jeffrey."
    Jeffrey gets the door, "Bye Michelle."
    After she leaves Marah starts cleaning up.
    Jeffrey walks over to her, "So you were talking about 'our' wedding?"
    She sighs, "Oh we were just joking around, don't worry. I know we aren't there yet."
    Jeffrey sighs, "Marah I'm not going to be there."
    She looks at him, "Don't worry we don't have to talk about it right now."
    He nods, "Yes we do. Marah I'm not going to marry you, ever."
    Marah is very upset by what he is saying.

    Cedars:


    Noah is taking Reva through treatment.
    She is laying down, "Oh I hate being so tired."
    Noah looks at her, "Well someone like you needs to learn to settle down for a little bit."
    She laughs, "Yeah right."
    Noah looks at all the pictures, "I can't believe how grown up Marah and Shayne are now."
    She nods, "My babies."
    Noah picks up a picture, "Is this Jonathan?"
    She smiles, "Yeah! I can't believe you recognized him."
    Noah grins, "Of course, he looks a lot like Richard."
    She laughs, "Well unfortunately he is not to much like Richard, more like me. More like me then any of my other children."
    He smiles, "Well good for him."
    She smiles, "You're sweet."
    He pics up another, "Susan. Wow she sure grew up."
    Reva nods, "Oh yes. That Susan is quite the little trouble maker. She kind of is like me too. Only she just can't stay out of trouble but I love my grandddaughter."
    Noah pics up Sarah's picture, "Wow, she's adorable."
    Reva grins, "That is Jonathan and Lizzie's baby."
    Noah shakes his head, "I can't believe little Lizzie is a mother."
    Reva nods, "She is a great mother."
    Reva starts putting the pictures back in her purse.
    Noah looks at her, "Is your ride on their way?"
    She gasps, "Oh God! Oh I forgot all about that. Marah was supposed to pick me up but she had to meet with Michelle, and I was going to call someone else but I forgot."
    Noah shakes his head, "Just get your stuff together. I'll give you a ride home."
    Reva smiles at Noah.

    Towers:
    Annie turns away from Josh.
    Josh looks at her, "Reva has breast cancer."
    Annie sighs, "It's just weird. I mean for years I thought that Reva Shayne would die at my hands. Now..."
    Josh shakes his head, "Well she isn't dying. She's fighting and she's going to beat it. She's done it before."
    Annie nods, "Reva had cancer before?"
    He nods, "Yes. She got through it all on her own."
    Annie sighs, "I'm sure you had something to do with it."
    Josh shakes his head, "No. I wasn't there for Reva. The whole situation is complicated."
    Annie nods, "Well I'm sure Reva Shayne will be able to handle it. If she can take on me then what chance does cancer have?"
    Josh laughs, "None."
    Annie nods, "I hope Marah and Shayne get through this okay. They grew up to be amazing adults."
    Josh smiles, "Yes they did. And I know it's complicated now but you were good with them when they were young and you had a part in how they turned out Annie."
    She wipes a tear and laughs, "Well don't tell them that."
    Josh grins, "I'm glad to see you're... happy."
    Annie nods, "Thank you. You too."
    The two of them smile at each other.

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Blake walks over to Alan.
    She looks at him, "Do you feel bad at all Alan? I mean I may be single right now but you, you're a married man."
    Alan nods, "I'm well aware of my status thank you."
    She shakes her head, "I thought you were so madly in love with Natalia."
    He nods, "I have no idea where she and my baby boy are. I may never see them again."
    Blake sighs, "Alan-"
    He stops her, "I'm not going to discuss this now. We are supposed to be talking about Remy and Elizabeth."
    Blake nods, "Okay. They aren't even dating so maybe we should slow things down a little."
    Alan sighs, "Remy is pursuing Elizabeth. It's only a matter of time before he convinces her to turn her back on her family like they all do. I won't let that happen again."
    Blake looks him in the eyes, "Alan I need you to promise me, promise me that Remy won't be hurt."
    Alan shakes his head, "Oh stop it Blake."
    She grabs him by the shirt, "Listen! I am not going to let you do this. I don't want this to be another Tammy Winslow. I want you to promise me that Remy won't get hurt."
    Alan sighs, "Only emotionally."
    Blake backs away from Alan.
    Blake begins to wonder if this was a bad idea.

    Harley's House:
    Cyrus turns his back to his brother.
    Guillespie looks at him, "What's going on with Susan?"
    Cyrus sighs, "A lot has been going on with Susan. She got messed up in some bad drugs for a while."
    G sighs, "Damn it! I knew that was going to happen. She swore to me that she had it under control."
    Cyrus nods, "I helped her or at least I thought I did."
    G looks at him, "So what? She is doing drugs again? Is that what you are telling me?"
    Cyrus shakes his head, "No. She found something else to become addicted to in place of it."
    Guillespie is confused, "What?"
    Cyrus shakes his head, "Not what who."
    G scoffs, "I have no idea what you're talking about."
    Cyrus turns to him, "Will you listen to me! She found someone else! There is another guy!"
    G shakes his head, "No! Susan said she would wait for me."
    Cyrus sighs, "I'm sorry."
    G is confused, "Who? Who would she cheat with?"
    Cyrus sighs, "Gus Aitoro. Detective Gus Aitoro. Her ex stepfather."
    Guillespie is shocked by this.

    Plans are changed in Springfield...



    Cedars:


    Reva is getting dressed into her regular clothes.
    Lillian walks into Reva's room, "Hey how are you feeling?"
    Reva sighs, "Better. I know I'll need to use my crutches until I'm completely healed but I feel much better."
    Lillian sighs, "Well I'm sorry to be the one to do this but the Doctor wants you to stick around."
    Reva sighs, "What? No! Why?"
    Lillian shakes her head, "I wasn't told. But I'm sure it's just to check your x-rays one last time. Probably nothing else."
    Reva nods, "I hope so. I hate being in hospitals. I certainly have spent enough time in them."
    On the other side of the hospital Liz Spaulding gets out of her bed.

    Liz keeps thinking about Marina.
    Liz talks to herself, "Aubrey said it herself. That baby was Marina's. She took it from her. I have to find her."
    Liz isn't very strong.
    She looks out the window.
    Company is right across the street.
    Liz wonders if she could make it.



    Beacon:


    Jeffrey is sitting in his room.
    Marah walks in with bags.
    He turns to her, "What's all this?"
    She puts them down, "I got some stuff for RJ. He's going to be with us soon so I thought I'd get some gifts for him."
    Jeffrey laughs, "It's not his birthday Marah."
    She sighs, "I know but he is coming home so I thought it'd be a nice treat for him. I got some baseball stuff, some video games, a kite, oh and I thought it'd be fun to take him swimming."
    Jeffrey stands up, "Well don't get your hopes up. Marah he's a teenager now. He's not going to want us to take him out to the park or the pool. He's gonna want to go with his friends."
    Marah sighs, "He's been away at boarding school. He hasn't seen these kids in a while."
    Jeffrey smiles, "He'll be fine. We'll help him adjust back to life in Springfield."
    Marah hugs him, "I just want him to be happy. I mean he grew up without his father. Now his mother is in a coma. I just want him to have something to look forward too."
    Jeffrey kisses her.



    Road:


    Susan and Marina re driving around.
    Susan pulls the car over.
    Marina sighs, "There is no where to go in this town."
    Susan nods, "Well duh! Everyone here is lame."
    Marina sits back, "I feel like everywhere I go people are staring at me and whispering. They all know."
    Susan sighs, "Cousin, people have been whispering at me for years. What's worse is when they point and throw things."
    Marina sighs, "I'm just so stressed out."
    Susan grabs her purse, "I could help you with that. But I have to ask first: Are you a cop right now?"
    Marina looks at her, "Susan unless you pull a dead body out of that bag, I'm not going to do anything."
    Susan pulls a plastic bag out of her purse.
    She puts it in Marina's face, "You wanna?"
    Marina turns to her, "I thought you didn't do drugs anymore?"
    Susan pulls it away, "Hey! I did. I'm clean. But I don't count this. I'm talking about coke, x, meth, and all that junk. Those are bad for you. But this stuff is good for you! Alchol is worse for you then this."
    Marina laughs, "You are very passionate."
    Susan nods, "I'm thinking about doing some PSAs."
    Marina holds the bag in her hands.



    Towers:


    Mel is going over her wedding plans with Olivia and Dinah.
    Mel looks at them, "Well now we don't know if Natalia is going to be back in time."
    Olivia nods, "Well she is married to Alan now. That's what happens when you get tangled up in the Spauldings."
    Mel turns to her, "Hey! Do you forget I'm marrying Alan Michael Spaulding?"
    Olivia sighs, "I'm sorry. I'm sure he's different. But you know Natalia thought Alan was."
    Mel shakes her head, "Stop it. Now I don't even know what Alan did that got Natalia so upset."
    Dinah sighs, "All I know is Rafe left town because of Alan and Natalia is going to find him."
    Mel is confused, "Why would Alan do that?"
    Olivia sits up, "Well I bet it's because of the company. Alan wants to be CEO but if Rafe is getting into trouble it's gonna look bad. Maybe he sent him away until it's over."
    Mel sighs, "Maybe."
    Dinah nods, "It's crazy what running for CEO can do to a person you know?"
    Mel is thinking about Alan Michael.
    Dinah and Olivia turn to each other.
    They are aware of the seeds they've planted in Mel.



    Old Museum:


    Coop walks in.
    He looks around and no one appears to be there.
    He goes to get some stuff from his room.
    Stephanie walks out, "Coop? Hey."
    He turns, "Oh... Steph. I didn't know anyone was going to be here."
    She nods, "It feels like you don't even live here anymore."
    He nods, "Well I've been sleeping at the boarding house. My family just has a lot going on."
    Stephanie nods, "I'm so sorry about Marina. That's terrible. No mother should have to deal with that."
    Coop sighs, "Yeah. Uh... I have to get going. I am late for work."
    She is confused, "Isn't school over?"
    He nods, "Yeah. But you know a teacher's job is never really done. I got some summer stuff going on."
    Stephanie looks at him, "Are you teaching summer school?"
    He hesitates, "Um... well..."
    She sighs, "Are you going to see Vi?"
    Coop turns to her, "What?"
    Stephanie has tears in her eyes, "Coop what is going on with you and my niece?"
    Coop and Stephanie stare at each other.



    Company:


    Lucy and David are running the restaurant.
    The other Coopers are out.
    David stays in the kitchen.
    Lucy walks back there, "Are you ever going to say hi to everyone out here? I feel lonely."
    He sighs, "I'm just... I don't feel like going out there right now."
    She looks at him, "David how long is this going to last. No one here blames you for Marina's baby dying."
    David sighs, "I can't even look at Marina. I feel guilty. I will never forgive myself."
    Lucy grabs his arms, "Listen to me! You have to stop this! You are my hero. I love you. I love you so much David. No, you couldn't save everyone this time. But you saved my niece and I am so proud of you."
    The two kiss.
    They hear noises in the diner.
    They step out of the kitchen.
    Liz Spaulding is stumbling around, "Marina... Where is Marina?"
    Liz collapses.
    Lucy and David catch her.

    PART TWO:

    Beacon:
    Marah is sitting at the desk.
    Jeffrey looks over at her, "What are you doing?"
    She sighs, "Oh I'm making a list of kids for RJ to hang out with this summer. You know what I mean?"
    Jeffrey nods, "I think so."
    Marah sighs, "Now when he was younger his best friend was Harley's son Zach. I used to babysit them a lot. Maybe I could call Harley and see if Zach and introduce RJ to some good kids."
    Jeffrey laughs, "You can't plan this kid's life out. RJ will be fine. He's a good kid."
    Marah nods, "He's just been through so much. His father died when he was a baby. His adoptive father died when he was young. And now his mother just totally screwed things up."
    Jeffrey sighs, "Well Cassie didn't really screw up. She was sick."
    Marah shakes her head, "I'm sorry. Maybe it sounds cold but I'm kind of glad she is out of RJ's life now. He deserves better than anything Cassie could offer him."
    Jeffrey sighs, "I was with Cassie for a while. She was a great mother to RJ, as well as Tammy and Will."
    Marah sighs, "I don't know. All I know is that RJ needs me now and I'm not going to let him down like his mother did."
    Marah goes to the phone to call Harley.

    Towers:
    Mel, Olivia, and Dinah are still discussing.
    Mel sighs, "Well I'm so excited. I never had a real wedding you know. Rick and I were married in the hospital."
    Dinah smiles, "You deserve it honey. We are all so happy for you."
    Olivia nods, "Have you guys decided on a honeymoon?"
    Mel sighs, "Oh... uh. I thought I told you. We decided to postpone a honeymoon. He just has a lot with the company and everything. We can always do it later."
    Olivia nods, "Oh I'm sorry. You did tell me."
    Mel gets up, "I'm gonna to go the bathroom."
    Mel goes to the restroom.
    Dinah turns to Olivia, "I feel bad. I feel like we are manipulating our best friends."
    Olivia shakes her head, "We aren't. We are doing what's best for them. Natalia and Mel have to see that Alan and Alan Michael need to be prevented from becoming CEO. It would ruin their lives."
    Dinah sighs, "Well I think Natalia will be easy to finish convincing. She is very upset with Alan. She doesn't even want to return for the votes."
    Olivia nods, "Do you think you could get her to sign you over her proxy?"
    Dinah nods, "I'm certainly going to try."
    The two women wait for Mel to return.

    Old Museum:
    Coop walks towards Stephanie, "What are you talking about?"
    Stephanie sighs, "Coop what is going on with you and Vi?"
    Coop sighs, "What did she tell you?"
    Stephanie backs away, "Please tell me it's not true."
    He shakes his head, "Of course it's not! I can't believe you would even ask me that question."
    Stephanie sighs, "I'm sorry! But you were clearly lying to me about where you were going. And Vi seemed pretty sure that you were... that the two of you were involved."
    Coop nods, "I know. I didn't want to say anything. But at prom, Vi professed her love to me. She saw us kissing and got angry with me. Like I was cheating on her."
    Stephanie is confused, "I don't get it! Why would she think that you were dating?"
    He shakes his head, "I have no idea! She was always hanging around after school. But I didn't think much of it. Now looking back... I don't know I guess maybe she thought we were flirting."
    Stephanie sighs, "Well she is convinced that the two of you are in love with each other."
    Coop nods, "We need to get this settled. Because things are going to get very ugly."
    Stephanie and Coop are both worried.

    Road:
    Susan and Marina are sitting in the car.
    Marina is laughing, "I'm so glad you talked me into this."
    Susan giggles, "Have you ever tried that before?"
    Marina shakes her head, "No! I almost did in high school. But I never actually did."
    Susan grins, "See it's not so bad now is it?"
    Marina shakes her head, "No! Not at all! Why is this stuff illegal in the first place?"
    Susan shakes her head, "The government is messed up man. I don't know how you work with it."
    Marina sighs, "Well I don't know about that. I'm totally leaving the force. I'm done with being a cop."
    Susan claps her hands, "Yes! Yes! I saved you from yourself."
    Marina cracks up, "I love you right now Susan!"
    Susan starts the car, "Let's get out of here. The roads empty now but you never know."
    Marina turns to her, "You sure you can drive like this?"
    Susan nods, "Are you kidding me? I'm a better driver like this. I am so much more aware."
    Susan and Marina drive off.

    Company:
    Lucy and David are with Liz.
    David sighs, "The hospital is on the way to bring her back."
    Lucy looks down, "Liz why were you leaving the hospital?"
    Liz opens her eyes, "Marina... where is Marina? I was looking for her. That's why."
    David looks at her, "Marina isn't here right now. Why do you need to see her right now?"
    Liz tries to sit up, "I have to tell her... now. I have to tell her before it's too late."
    Lucy holds Liz, "Just relax. What is this about?"
    Liz sighs, "Her baby."
    David looks at her, "Liz. What do you have to say to Marina about her baby? What's going on?"
    Liz sighs, "Marina's baby... it's alive."
    Lucy and David look at each other.
    Both are in shock.

    Cedars:
    Reva sits in her room and waits for the doctor.
    She is getting annoyed and frustrated.
    The doctor walks in.
    Reva turns to him, "Great. I really have to go. I'm sorry. I know I'm an impatient patient but I really have to get home to my family. They wanted to go out to eat. I just need to go."
    The doctor shakes his head, "I'm sorry Ms. Shayne. But we need to have a talk first."
    Reva nods, "What about?"
    He sighs, "We didn't want to scare you until we were sure."
    She gets worried, "Sure about what?"
    He looks at her, "Ms. Shayne, the nurse discovered a mass when she was examining you."
    Reva can't hear what he is saying.
    His mouth is moving but she hears nothing.
    Then she finally hears his words, "Ms. Shayne your cancer may have returned."
    Reva's stomach drops to her feet.

    Spaulding Enterprises:

    Mr. Wallace announced, "Ladies and gentleman, your official CEO, Ms. Annie Dutton."

    Annie stands, "Thank you all for your support. And those of you who didn't support me.... well I'm sorry."
    Dinah and Olivia stand at her sides.

    Alex turns to Alan, "I hope your happy, you know if you had put your pride aside and voted for your son he would be the CEO right and not her. Not Annie Dutton."
    Alan is angry, "That is enough Alexandra."

    Harley gets up, "I don't feel well."
    Cyrus stands, "You want me to take you home?"
    She nods, "Yeah I think I should be going."
    Gus looks at her, "Babe you okay?"
    Harley just walks away with Cyrus.

    Rafe and Liz walk over to Annie.
    Liz shakes her hand, "Congratulations."
    Rafe smiles, "You're going to do a fine job I'm sure."
    Annie grins, "I knew I could count on you two to finally see the light. I will remember this."
    Alan walks over to his Grandchildren, "I hope you two are satisfied."
    Liz turns to him, "If I ever want my daughter to come home, then you need to stay out of power."
    Annie smiles at Alan.



    Ravenwood:


    Ava is lashing out.
    She screams, "Get out!!! Go away!"
    Shayne stops her, "You need to stop. Because I'm not going anywhere."
    The nurse walks in, "What is going on? Is the patient behaving dangerously Ms. Lewis?"
    Shayne looks at her, "No. There is no problem here."
    The nurse stares at them.
    Ava looks at her, "You heard him. No problem. Now waddle your fat ass out of my room."
    The nurse shakes her head and leaves.
    Shayne turns to her, "That was nice."
    She walks away, "Why did you do that? You could have safely escorted out while they strapped me down in here."
    Shayne looks at her, "I told you that you weren't hopeless Ava. I know there must be some good in you."
    Ava shakes her head, "Not really."
    He sighs, "You keep putting up a tough front. Why can't you let yourself be vulnerable and real."
    She looks at him, "I don't need pity. I want people to be intimidated by me. That's what I want."
    He laughs, "You are the daughter of Edmund Winslow and Olivia Spencer. That right there would scare the hell out of anyone in Springfield."
    Ava tries not to laugh when he says things.



    Beacon:


    Edmund is in his room.
    There is a knock on the door.
    He walks to the door, "This better be important."

    He opens to door to see Cassie.
    He is shocked, "Cassie?"
    She sighs, "Hello Edmund. We need to talk."
    He stares, "What is going on?"
    She sighs, "I've been thinking about you."
    Edmund smiles, "Really?"
    She nods, "A friend told me today that in order to receive forgiveness we have to forgive."
    He is confused, "Who is this friend?"
    She answers reluctantly, "Jeffrey-"
    He goes to shut the door.
    She stops him, "Can I please come in? I just, I think there are things we need to talk about."
    Edmund looks her in the eyes, "So you are here to forgive me?"
    She nods, "That's the plan."
    He sighs, "You really think you can do that?"
    She shakes her head, "I don't know. But I am sure going to try. If you can let me."
    Edmund steps aside.
    Cassie walks in.

    Spaulding Enterprises:
    Olivia looks at Annie and Dinah, "I'm going to schedule a celebratory party at Towers."
    Annie hugs her, "Oh thank you Olivia. You two have been great partners and now we finally won."
    Olivia leaves.
    Dinah hugs Annie, "Can you believe it! We got you named the official CEO! Everything is working out."
    Annie smiles, "We make a great team."
    Dinah looks at her, "So you want me to get the press together?"
    Annie shakes her head, "It's taken care of. Go home and see your family. Surprise them with something."
    Dinah grins, "That's a good idea."
    Dinah hugs Annie and then heads home.
    Alan sits by himself.
    Annie walks over to him, "You okay big guy?"
    He scoffs, "As if you care."
    She looks at him, "I still have a small place in my heart for you."
    He looks at her, "Somehow I think even if I won I still wouldn't be happy. The love of my life is not here."
    Annie sighs, "Well I am sorry but maybe it just wasn't meant to be with you and her."
    Alan shakes his head, "You don't know what you're talking about."
    Annie sighs, "Come on. I hear she was the hotel maid. The sweet little catholic. Not your type."
    Alan sighs, "Natalia changed me."
    Annie stands up, "Alan, maybe you were never meant to be changed."
    Annie walks away.
    Alan sits and ponders.



    Side of the Road:


    Michelle is driving home.
    Her car starts to break down.
    She pulls over, "No, no, no."
    Michelle tries to call Bill.
    Her phone died.
    Michelle finally gets out and goes to check out the car.
    The second she gets under the hood she hears it.
    The motorcycle is pulling up.

    Jesse gets off, "Having car trouble?"
    She turns to him, "Did you follow me?"
    He laughs, "No, I was on my bike and I saw you. Luck you huh?"
    She shakes her head, "I can take care of this. But thank you very much I appreciate it. See ya."
    Jesse walks over, "And what are you going to do."
    She looks inside, "I'm going to take this out."
    He laughs, "You take that out and you'll never get it going."
    She turns to him, "Just let me borrow your phone please and I will call Bill and you will be on your way."
    Jesse shakes his head, "Nonsense. Bill would never forgive me for letting his fiance out her by herself."
    Michelle is uncomfortable.



    Towers:


    Bill is leaving a meeting.
    He sees Olivia drinking at the bar.
    He rushes over, "What the hell are you doing?"
    She turns to him, "What? Oh this is water Bill."
    He sighs, "Oh I'm sorry. I just saw you here and I.... I'm sorry."
    She shakes her head, "No. Don't be. I'm actually quite flattered that you would be concerned."
    Bill nods, "Of course."
    She sighs, "Yeah I'm Emma's Mom."
    Bill laughs, "Believe it or not I would care even if you weren't. I care about you Olivia. I always will."
    She sighs, "Well thanks I needed to hear that. I've been craving a drink lately with everything going on."
    Bill looks at her, "What's going on?"
    Olivia sighs, "Well Gus has been sleeping with Susan. Your niece Susan. And Ava is only getting worse in Ravenwood. And to top it all off, Phillip is going to try and be in Emma's life again."
    Bill looks at her, "Well, I'm sorry about Gus and Susan. I had no idea. I really hope Ava gets better. I feel horrible for what happened to her. And there is no way in hell that you and I are going to let the Spauldings in Emma's life."
    Olivia smiles at Bill.
    He makes her feel safe.

    PART TWO:



    Harley's House:

    Cyrus walks Harley inside.
    Harley sighs, "I'm sorry if I've been leaning on you too much lately Cyrus. I just needed a friend."
    Cyrus looks at her, "No problem. I'm always going to be here for you."
    She smiles, "You're a great guy."
    He looks at her, "You seem tired. Let's get you in bed."
    The two walk up stairs.
    They go into the bedroom.
    Harley laughs, "It's been a while since we've been in here together."
    He nods, "Yep. But I think some of our best sex was while we were on the chase."
    She smiles, "I fell for you while we were chasing your brother and my daughter all over the country. I never expected to fall for a guy like you."
    He laughs, "Do you think I expected to fall for a detective/soccer mom?"
    Harley looks into his eyes, "I'm not feeling so tired anymore."
    Cyrus and Harley kiss.
    The two begin to make out and lay down on the bed.
    Harley begins to unbutton Cyrus's shirt.

    Beacon:
    Edmund and Cassie are sitting together.
    Cassie looks at him, "I forgave you a long time ago for everything that happened when I was with Richard."
    Edmund smiles, "And you forgiving me made me a better man. Maybe I can be that man again."
    She sighs, "I hope so. Because that man was a great man, that man was a man.... that I loved."
    Edmund looks into her eyes, "I am so sorry for what I did to you and Dinah, and Michelle. I was trying to hold onto you and I shouldn't have done it that way."
    Cassie has tears in her eyes, "Giving Hope to Danny and Michelle was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make."
    Edmund sighs, "And I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry that you ever had to do any of that."
    She wipes a tear, "Things were so much better between us before we got married."
    He nods, "Maybe that was the one mistake. We should have kept on living in sin."
    She laughs, "Well you were really good with RJ and Will."
    Edmund sighs, "If there was ever any good in me it was because you put it there. I hope I can find it again one day. I'm so sorry Cassie. I'm so so sorry."
    Cassie takes his hand, "I forgive you Edmund. I forgive you."
    Edmund has tears rolling down his face.
    Words he has longed to hear.

    Side of the Road:
    Michelle stands a few feet away from the car.
    Jesse walks over, "I got good news and bad news."
    She sighs, "Of course you do."
    He looks at her, "I found the problem with your car. But you need a new part to it."
    She sighs, "Unless it's a tire I don't have anything."
    He nods, "There's a shop not to far from here. I can go get it."
    She nods, "Okay. Thank you."
    He looks at her, "I have a second helmet."
    She shakes her head, "I'm not getting on the back of your motorcycle Jesse. Sorry."
    He looks at her, "I'm not leaving you out here by yourself. Bill would never forgive me."
    She sighs, "I'm not a kid anymore. I'm a Mom. And a Doctor. I've seen so many idiots after they crash on these things."
    Jesse smiles, "I'll go slow. But I have a feeling once we're on you'll be begging me to speed."
    He hands her the helmet.
    Michelle puts it on and gets on the bike.
    She wraps her arms around him.
    The two drive off.



    Mallet and Dinah's:

    Dinah gets out of her car.
    She grabs a cake from the back.
    Dinah has her hands full and rings the doorbell.
    No one answers.
    She continues ringing it.
    Finally she puts her stuff down and opens the door.
    Dinah carries everything in, "I'm home! Mommy had a great day and we are going to celebrate!"
    Dinah walks in.
    She gets no response.
    She hollers again, "Come on! Where is everybody? Mallet, Maureen, Belinda? Where is Anthony?"
    Dinah sees a note.
    It's from Mallet, "Dear Dinah, I'm taking the family on a little trip, spur of the moment, You and I always loved spur of the moment. Or we used to. Anyways Maureen will be helping me. We'll be back, but hopefully you'll take this time to finish whatever project your working on and when we come home you can remember the children that you've been doing this for.... And maybe even me. I miss you. Love Mallet."
    Dinah shakes her head, "No! Mallet!"
    She goes to the garage and the car is gone.
    Dinah runs into the rooms upstairs.
    Every one's stuff is packed.
    Dinah falls down in the hallways, "Oh my God! Oh God what have I done?"
    Dinah cries alone in her hallway.

    Ravenwood:
    Ava lays on her bed.
    Shayne looks at her, "You know, you say you're this bad girl. But I have a feeling you weren't always a bad girl."
    Ava sits up, "No. I wasn't. I used to be a good girl. Just like my adopted mother Connie Peralta. I was in love with Sandy Foster."
    He looks at her, "Sandy?"
    She nods, "That's what brought me to town."
    Shayne nods, "Sandy was a good guy."
    Ava looks down, "He loved Tammy though. He was over me. So I found another guy Coop. But he was with Lizzie Spaulding. Eventually we got together. And I hurt him the same way Sandy hurt me. I fell for a rich loser. And pushed him away."
    He nods, "Everyone makes mistakes."
    Ava sighs, "I finally thought Bill was the guy I was meant to be with. But he couldn't keep his hands off my mother."
    She laughs.
    He looks at her, "I can't even imagine how that feels."
    Ava sighs, "The good girl thing didn't help me, the bad girl thing isn't working out. I'm just giving up on love."
    Shayne shakes his head, "No. Never, ever give up on love. I know that I never will."
    Ava stares at him.
    Shayne looks at his watch, "I have to get going."
    Ava nods, "Goodbye Mr. Lewis."
    He smiles, "No. See you later Ava."
    An annoyed Ava rolls her eyes.
    Shayne leaves.
    Ava lays back down and stares at the ceiling.
    She is trying to fight the smile that is appearing on her face.



    Spaulding Mansion:

    Alan walks into the dining room.
    He has been drinking.
    He is frustrated with everything going on.
    He kicks a chair, "Damn it! Damn it!"
    Alan is knocking everything around.
    He looks at the picture of him and Natalia's wedding.
    He takes it and sits down, "Where are you Natalia? Why are you hiding from me? How am I supposed to be happy without you and my son? How am I supposed to know if you are ever coming home?"

    Blake walks up with a drink in her hand, "It hurts, knowing that the love of your life would rather hide from you than be with you?"
    Alan sighs, "What would you know about that?"
    Blake knows she can't tell him about Ross, "Oh Alan. Just accept it. Maybe Natalia just couldn't handle your lifestyle."
    Alan nods, "She made me feel good. Then she just took it all away. Not only has she made me at my happiest, she has hurt me more than I thought anyone could. I trusted her."
    Blake sighs, "Life is so screwed up. People like us never get to have what we want. And if we get it it's taken away."
    Alan looks at her, "I have to say Blake, I'm kind of glad that you're here right now."
    She sighs, "Well I'll deny saying this when I'm more sober, but I'm kind of glad I'm here right now too."
    Alan looks into Blake's eyes.
    The wedding picture falls from his hands.
    Alan and Blake lean in and kiss.
    They drop their drinks.
    Alan picks Blake up and lays her down on the dining room table.
    Blake starts loosening Alan's tie.
    The two begin to take their clothes off as they continue to kiss.

    Huge decisions impact Springfield...



    Spaulding Enterprises:

    The official voting day has begun.
    Today everyone will find out the CEO of Spaulding Enterprises.

    Alan walks in with his sister.
    Alex turns to him, "You must be pretty excited Alan. Today either you or Phillip will become the CEO."
    Alan scoffs, "I will become the CEO Alexandra don't you worry."
    Alex sighs, "As long as Annie Dutton isn't CEO I don't care who is."
    Alan shakes his head, "Bite you tongue Alexandra."

    Phillip and Beth (Lorelei) walk up.
    Phillip smiles, "Good morning Dad, Aunt Alex. The day we have been waiting for is finally here."
    Alan nods, "Well son, I'm glad to see that you are being so optimistic. But I hope you aren't truly expecting to win or else you are going to be very disappointed."
    Phillip nods, "We'll see about that Dad."

    Liz and Rafe enter.
    Alan turns to him, "Well hello Raphael. That was a very nice show you put on at the party."
    Rafe sighs, "I'm glad I could help."
    Liz looks at him, "Just sit down, don't talk to them."
    Phillip looks at his daughter, "Lizzie..."
    She walks past him.

    Annie, Olivia and Dinah walk in.
    Olivia feels awkward, "If Gus shows up... I just don't want to deal with him right now."
    Annie sighs, "Relax. Today everything is going to go our way. And Gus will be a distant memory."
    Olivia takes her seat.
    Dinah sighs, "I feel bad for her."
    Annie takes her hand, "Well you know what, don't. Don't feel bad because Mel, Natalia, and Olivia all have bad relationships. You have something very good with Mallet and nothing will ruin that."
    Dinah smiles at her.



    Mallet and Dinah's:


    Mallet's running late for work.
    Maureen walks in, "Hey I dropped Belinda off at Clarissa's. Sorry I got caught in traffic."
    Mallet looks at her, "Don't be sorry. Thank you for everything you've been doing for us."
    Maureen sighs, "Of course. Anthony and Belinda are very special to me. I have no problem taking her places and watching him during the day."
    Mallet shakes his head, "It shouldn't be like this. We shouldn't have to bend over backwards by ourselves. Dinah is their mother and she needs to be here with us."
    Maureen sighs, "Mallet, Dinah loves us all. She is trying to make everything okay for us."
    He shakes his head, "We hardly ever see your sister! She is always working and going to meetings and spending time with people like Annie Dutton and Olivia Spencer."
    She nods, "I know, I know! I have no idea what is going on with Dinah. Sometimes I feel like Anthony barely knows her. And Belinda, she wanted to get to know her mother and that's not happening. I feel bad saying this but sometimes I feel like I'm becoming their mother."
    Mallet looks at her, "We can't live like this. You start school soon. We shouldn't have to do this."
    Maureen has tears in her eyes, "Mallet what are you talking about?"
    Mallet looks at Maureen, "I'm gonna have to give Dinah an ultimatum."
    Maureen worries about the two of them.



    Beacon:


    Jeffrey walks into the Beacon.
    He looks at the front desk.
    Cassie is standing behind the desk.
    He looks at her, "Cassie? What are you doing?"
    She sighs, "Oh... I guess it was only a matter of time before someone saw me working here."
    Jeffrey nods, "It's just confusing. I thought you sold your half of the Beacon to Olivia and now she is partners with Natalia."
    Cassie nods, "Yes and after some persuading I was able to get Olivia to give me a job here."
    Jeffrey looks at her, "Oh so you run the front desk."
    Cassie sighs, "Yes. I went from owning this hotel to working for it."
    Jeffrey nods, "Well that's good. I mean you are trying to start your life over and you have to start somewhere you know?"
    She sighs, "I guess your right. I'm very grateful for the job and everything I have right now."
    He nods, "I'm sorry about Reva."
    Cassie sighs, "Well it's been tough but she'll get through it. And this time I'm going to be a much better sister."
    Jeffrey looks her in the eyes, "You've always been a good sister."
    She shakes her head, "No I haven't. But I am now. Right now I'm focusing on my number one priority."
    Jeffrey is interested, "What's that?"
    She takes a deep breath, "My redemption."
    Jeffrey smiles at her.

    Spaulding Enterprises:


    Gus walks in and looks around.
    He is looking for Harley.

    Harley walks in with Cyrus.
    Gus turns to her to say something.
    She shakes her head, "I'm just here for business."
    Cyrus and Harley take seats next to each other.

    Lucy and Blake follow and sit next to them.
    Gus walks over to Rafe, "I hope your happy Son."
    Rafe smiles, "I am. I'm tired of hypocrites."
    Gus nods, "You think your mother would approve of this?"
    Rafe shakes his head, "Well she's not here. She left this town to get away from people like you."
    Rafe takes his seat.
    Annie walks over to Alexandra.
    Alex turns to her, "Oh Annie. I don't even know what to say to you."
    Annie grins, "Alexandra, just say congratulations. You might as well get it over with. Because after today I will officially become the CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Alex grins, "You sure you want it? You sure you can handle it?"
    Annie nods, "Of course I can."
    Alex sighs, "I've heard that before, from Alan, Phillip, Alan Michael, and Cassie. If you consider that handling it.... good luck Annie. You are going to need especially if you win."
    Alex takes her seat.
    Annie just shakes her head and walks back to her seat.



    Cross Creek:


    Bill and Michelle are sitting on the couch going over wedding plans.
    Bill turns to her, "We have some non-wedding plans to take care of just in case you forgot."
    She looks at him, "Like?"
    He sighs, "We don't live together. You live at your house I live here. Where are we gonna live?"
    She sits back, "Wow I can't believe we haven't talked about that yet. I guess we should."
    Bill nods, "It's pretty important."
    She looks at him, "Well I mean my family home means a lot to me. So many memories."
    He sighs, "But you got your father and your brother living there. Plus Rick's kids are there half the time."
    She nods, "Yeah the kids can all play together."
    He nods, "I know but it's getting crowded."
    She sighs, "This cabin is no mansion either. You got your parents, Josh, and whatever Lewis is in town at the time."
    He grins, "Well I think we know what this means."
    She sighs, "I guess we should start looking at places."
    He smiles, "What about this?"
    He lays blueprints out in front of her.
    Michelle is confused, "What am I looking at?"
    He grins, "It's our house Michelle."
    Michelle is very confused.



    Ravenwood:


    Shayne is talking with nurses.
    A nurse smiles, "So nice of you to volunteer Mr. Lewis. But are you sure this is the patient you want to work with?"
    He nods, "Yes. I'll work with others too. But I think I can be a good friend to this person. Someone who needs a friend."
    The nurse nods, "Well I'll be listening. In case something happens."
    He chuckles, "I think I'll be fine."
    She lets Shayne in.

    Ava shouts, "Leave me alone whoever you are!"
    Shayne walks in, "Hello."
    She looks at him, "You. What the hell are you doing here?"
    He smiles, "Nice to see you too. Do you know who I am?"
    She nods, "Yeah you're Bill's gay cousin. Why are you here?"
    He sits in a chair, "You know I think we were also step brother and sister at one point."
    Ava sighs, "Wow too bad we didn't get to grow up together. We could have played boardgames and go camping. And Marah and I could have done each other's hair and then I'd get up early and smother her in her sleep."
    Shayne sighs, "Well that would have been interesting."
    Ava grins, "You see this is the part where you tell me I'm a hopeless psycho bitch and then you leave."
    He smiles, "Don't talk like that. You're not hopeless."
    Ava is getting annoyed by him.

    PART TWO:

    Beacon:
    Cassie is on her break.
    Jeffrey and her sit in the lobby.
    Jeffrey smiles, "Do you remember the time you threw me out of the hotel? We were right over there."
    She laughs, "Oh yeah. But you offended me. But you always offended me. I said something like, 'I want you out of my hotel and out of my life Mr. O'Neill. Consider yourself evicted'."
    He laughs, "And of course I thought you were bluffing then I called trying to apologize."
    She shakes her head, "I wasn't gonna forgive you. I was going to throw your stuff out and I ended up trapped on the roof with some psycho."
    He smiles, "I'm glad I found you."
    She sighs, "You saved my life."
    He nods, "Well I really just wanted to keep my room here."
    She laughs, "Of course. I think that was one of the moments where I really started to see your heart."
    He sighs, "The beginning of my redemption? Well one of them," Jeffrey looks in her eyes, "If you don't mind me asking, when was it that you forgave me for... what happened in San Cristobal?"
    She sighs, "I didn't take long to forgive you. I mean you know that's not the real reason we broke up. I mean my whole thing was about..."
    He nods, "I know I know."
    She sighs, "I just knew in my heart that even though you violated me that way, you were sorry and you would have spent the rest of your life making it up to me."
    Jeffrey nods, "And that's why I am able to forgive. You see you can't be forgiven unless your forgive others. That's something I've learned."
    Cassie is really listening to him.
    Cassie knows what she has to do now.

    Cross Creek:
    Michelle is looking at the blue prints.
    Bill smiles, "I know you're probably having trouble reading them."
    She shakes her head, "I'm confused. Where is this house?"
    He grins, "Well I'm still looking at places but I was thinking about this one here."
    She looks at the address, "That's... no I don't think so Bill."
    He is confused, "What?"
    She turns to him, "I don't buy into curses and stuff but there were two houses that have burned down there in the last year."
    Bill sighs, "But they were arson! I know it sounds bad but just coincidences."
    Michelle shakes her head, "The last house. The last house was the house Danny built for Marina. The house burned down with Marina's baby boy inside. Danny's baby boy. I can't have a house there."
    Bill sighs, "God I'm sorry. I didn't even... I'm so sorry. That was a dumb idea."
    She looks at him, "It's okay. I just feel like you are trying to move fast and make decisions without me."
    He shakes his head, "I'm sorry we'll work on everything together."
    She smiles, "Okay. Because I am more than ready to become your wife."
    Bill puts his arm around her, "Michelle Lewis."
    Michelle is a little uncomfortable hearing that name.

    Spaulding Enterprises:
    Mr. Wallace stands before everyone, "These weeks have been interesting. I must say it's been a wild ride. For weeks we heard these people give us their plans, their strategies and overall convince us to allow them this far. Alliances were formed and broken, outbursts, and so much stress on everyone. But by the end of the day we'll have our official CEO. Either Annie Dutton will be officially sworn in or the title will go to Alan Spaulding or Phillip Spaulding. Now the voting will begin."
    Alan, Annie, and Phillip all vote for themselves.
    Due to proxies Annie is in the lead.
    Alex stands up, "I Alexandra Spaulding vote for the one person I trust the most. Phillip Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Cyrus rises, "I vote for Phillip Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Harley stands up, she turns to Phillip, "Phillip, I forgive you and I trust you again. I Harley Cooper vote for Phillip Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Lucy agrees with her sister, "I Lucy Cooper vote for Phillip Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Blake stands, "I Christina Blake Thorpe Marler vote for Alan Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises. He's the right man for the job."
    Alan grins.
    The ladies sit.
    Harley looks at her, "Why Blake? Why?"
    Blake shakes her head, "It's just how I feel Harley."
    Olivia turns to Annie, "Are you worried?"
    Annie shakes her head, "No. It is closer than I assumed. But I think my plan will go just the way I planned from the beginning."
    Annie smiles to herself.

    Ravenwood:
    Shayne sits next to Ava.
    He looks at her, "You know I spent years in Peace Corps. I was helping people in Bosnia and all kinds of other places. It was just the best experience of my life."
    She nods, "And that's where you met your boyfriend right? Whats-his-name, Coop's gay brother?"
    Shayne smiles and looks down, "So is that the only thing you know about me? That I dated a man?"
    Ava sighs, "Sorry when I was going over the biographies of annoying losers I must have skipped you."
    He laughs, "You're funny."
    She looks at him, "And you're a moron."
    He looks at her, "Why do you have to be so rude?"
    She shakes her head, "I'm not some charity case. So why don't you go build a house or something?"
    He stares at her, "Why won't you look me in the eye?"
    She is getting more angry, "Leave me alone bud. You have no idea who you're talking to."
    He sighs, "Are you afraid if people look in your eyes they'll see the real you?"
    She jumps up, "Get out!!! Get out!"
    He grabs her, "That's enough! I'm not going to leave, I'm not going to hide, I'm not going to respond to your tantrums the way you want me too. I'm an adult and so are you Ava. Act like it."
    The nurse walks in, "Is there a problem?"
    Ava and Shayne both turn to her.

    Mallet and Dinah's:
    Maureen walks downstairs with Anthony.
    Mallet gets off the phone, "Okay I just got off the phone with the station. I'm taking my vacation time and David is going to be filling in for me while I'm gone."
    Maureen looks at him, "Where are you going?"
    He sighs, "I think we all need a vacation. A very well deserved vacation how does that sound?"
    Maureen shakes her head, "Mallet I don't think Dinah is going to have time for that."
    He sighs, "Who said Dinah was coming?"
    Maureen looks at him, "Mallet..."
    He nods, "Belinda and Anthony have had a crappy summer. They deserve it, I'm not going to let Dinah stop them from enjoying themselves. I could use your help. I would pay you of course to watch them."
    She shakes her head, "I love those kids Mallet. I would do anything for them, you know that."
    He nods, "I know but you're a young woman who should be going out with her friends not raising two children."
    She sighs, "I love them. Mallet I'm just worried about how Dinah is going to react."
    Mallet takes a deep breath, "I hope this is a wake up call for her as to what she is missing. But a part of me is really afraid that she won't even notice we are gone."
    Maureen has tears in her eyes.
    Mallet goes upstairs to pack.

    Spaulding Enterprises:
    The voting continues.
    Lorelei stands up, "I Beth Raines Spaulding, vote for my husband who is the perfect man for the job. I vote for Phillip Spaulding as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Mr. Wallace looks on, "To keep you all up to date Mr. Phillip Spaulding is in the lead with Ms. Dutton in a close second."
    Alan is very unhappy.
    Olivia rises, "I am so happy to say that Spaulding Enterprises will be run by someone who knows what they are doing. I Olivia Spencer vote for Annie Dutton as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Dinah stands next to her, "I second that. I Dinah Marler Mallet votes for Annie Dutton as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Annie catching up with Phillip.
    Rafe stands up, "You know these meetings have been a real eye opener to see just how fake some people are in this family. So that is the reason why I Raphael Rivera Spaulding, votes for Ms. Annie Dutton as the CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Liz rises, "I agree with my cousin. I am not doing this out of revenge. I think it's time for some change. I Elizabeth Spaulding vote for Annie Dutton as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises."
    Phillip is very upset with his daughter but respects her decision.
    Mr. Wallace counts once more to be sure.
    He looks up, "Well it appears it's official. The official CEO of Spaulding Enterprises. Ladies and Gentleman Ms. Annie Dutton."
    Annie rises with a huge grin.
    Dinah and Olivia stand at her sides.
    Nearly half of the room is very upset.

    Towers:



    Susan and Gus are on the balcony.
    Gus looks at her, "I think it's best if we just leave everything we shared in the past."
    Susan nods, "I think so too. No one ever has to know about the time we spent together."
    They share a hug.
    They walk back into the party and are stunned as all eyes are on them.

    Rafe is standing on the bar, "Well if it isn't the couple of the hour!"
    Susan and Gus are stunned to see themselves on the screen making love.
    Gus shouts, "Turn that off!"

    After a few moments the projector is shut off by Liz.
    Liz walks over to Rafe, "Rafe you didn't tell me..."

    Gus looks at Olivia.
    She walks over and smacks him across the face, "You sick pig. I can't believe I fell for your crap."
    He sighs, "Olivia I never..."
    She walks away.
    Gus and Susan look at the center to the room.

    Harley is standing with her back to them.
    Both are afraid to see her face.
    Slowly Harley turns around to both of them in shock and confusion.
    Harley's eyes are filled with tears, "I don't understand... The love of my life and my own daughter? Tell me I it's not true, tell me it's wrong."
    Gus and Susan are speechless.



    Spaulding Mansion:


    Mel is sitting in the living room.
    Alan Michael has gone upstairs to bed and made it clear he wants to be left alone.
    Mel has never felt comfortable in this house.

    Alexandra walks in, "Well, hello."
    Mel turns to her, "Hi Alexandra. I didn't think anyone would be home. I expected you all to be at Towers."
    Alex nods, "Well I was darling. But I just made my appearance and headed back home."
    Mel sighs, "Yeah. Was anyone talking about..."
    Alex nods, "Alan Michael's breakdown? Darling I'm sure half the town is talking about it."
    Mel looks down, "I just want to help him get through this."
    Alex laughs, "Help him? You sided with Annie Dutton and plotted behind his back."
    Mel shakes her head, "You don't understand. I was trying to help him. I saw what was happening to him. I saw him getting sucked back into the Spaulding web-"
    Alex scoffs, "Now that is enough! I am sick and tired of all of this talk about how the Spauldings are vicious monsters. No one is perfect Mel. But you used to come pretty close. You want to talk about getting sucked into the Spaulding web. What about you? Do you think you were the kind of person who could betray their husband before you became a Spaulding?"
    Mel turns her head away.



    Mall:


    Ashlee and Roxie are walking through the parking lot.
    Roxie looks at her, "Did you like the outfits I bought you?"
    Ashlee smiles, "I do. But I'm going to pay you back I promise you that I will Roxie."
    Roxie smiles, "Nonsense. Those were my gift to you. You deserve them, a young woman like you deserves the best."
    Ashlee nods, "I just haven't had time to shop lately. I mean becoming a doctor is not easy."
    Roxie looks at her, "Are you sure being a doctor is really what you want to do Ashlee?"
    Ashlee nods, "Of course. I mean I've found my passion. I love helping people and I think I want to become a pediatrician possibly."
    Roxie looks at her, "Well I just think a person with your personality should think about her options."
    Ashlee sighs, "Well I used to dream of being a journalist. I worked with Dinah Marler for a while at WSPR."
    Roxie grins, "You should apply for a position at WSPR."
    Ashlee shakes her head, "I don't have any time with classes and everything."
    Roxie looks her in the eyes, "Just promise me you'll think about it. Maybe being a doctor isn't right for you."
    Ashlee nods, "I'll think about it sure."
    Ashlee gets in the car.
    Roxie smiles to herself and then gets into the car.

    Towers:
    Harley walks away.
    Gus steps in front of her, "Babe please just let me explain."
    She shoves him, "Get away from me! How could you do that? Of all the people you could have..."
    Harley walks away.
    Susan grabs her arm, "Mom please!"
    Harley pulls away, "Do not, put your damn hands on me!"
    Harley runs off.

    Annie Dutton gets out of the elevator.
    She walks over to Dinah, "What did I miss?"
    Dinahs sighs, "In a nutshell. Gus Aitoro who is dating Olivia sort of. Who also is the love of Harley's life, just revealed that he has been sleeping with Harley's daughter Susan."
    Annie has a slight chuckle, "Wow. Sorry I missed that. Sounds like Harley's daughter takes after her."
    Dinah shakes her head, "No... it's weird, I actually delivered her when Harley gave birth. We were in high school..."
    Annie stops her, "We don't have time for a trip down memory lane. It sounds like Gus is just like his brother and his father. We need to use that to our advantage."
    Dinah shakes her head, "I don't know. Olivia was upset. I should check on her."
    Annie nods, "No. She's strong. She'll be fine. Come on, let's work the room."
    Dinah and Annie walk around and chat.



    Company:


    Shayne and Bill walk in.
    Bill smiles, "Oh I didn't think we were ever gonna get done at the office today."
    Shayne nods, "Yep. Did you see our Dad's. They looked like they were about to fall asleep."
    Bill laughs, "Well that's gonna be us one day. But for now let's enjoy the fact that we can still keep our eyes open past 9."
    The two grab a table.
    Shayne sits, "So Marah said that she was helping design Michelle's dress for the wedding?"
    Bill nods, "Yes. And of course Mindy already ordered Marah to send her a rough draft for her approval."
    Shayne nods, "Will Mindy be here for the wedding?"
    Bill sighs, "I hope so. I'm hoping Dylan can too."
    Shayne grins, "It'll be great to have the whole family back together. We can use some good times."
    Bill sighs, "How's your Mom doing?"
    Shayne sighs, "She's okay. She's strong."
    Bill nods, "Well you tell her that she needs to stick around so she can tell my son stories about his great grandfather."
    Shayne smiles, "How is little HB?"
    Bill grins, "He's great. Almost a year old. I just... I feel bad, Ava's gonna miss his 1st birthday. But she's just not stable."



    Ravenwood:


    Ava lays on her bed and stares at the ceiling.
    A nurse opens the door.
    Ava shouts, "I asked to be left alone for the day!"

    Edmund walks in, "Not even for me?"
    Ava jumps up, "Daddy! You're here!"
    Edmund hugs her, "Oh of course I am."
    Ava grins, "I knew it! I knew you were gonna come to get me out of here sooner or later."
    Edmund sighs, "Well I will but unfortunately I can't today."
    Ava shakes her head, "But I was supposed to be out of here weeks ago. You made a deal."
    He nods, "I did but sadly that deal fell through."
    She shakes her head, "No you don't understand. This place makes crazy people sane but it also makes sane people crazy! I've got doctors and nurses who beat around the bush then ask me about Marah and Michelle and expect me to remain calm."
    Edmund tries to calm her down, "Ava I know it's tough but it's only going to make you stronger."
    Ava shakes her head, "No they don't even let me read the paper or watch TV anymore. I have no idea what's going on in Springfield."
    Edmund sighs, "Just trust me."
    Ava walks away from him, "Jeffrey would have got me out of here by now."
    Edmund is furious by her words.

    PART TWO:



    Beacon:
    Roxie pulls her car in front.
    Ashlee gets out.
    She walks around to Roxie's window, "Thanks for everything Roxie."
    Roxie grins, "Oh it was my pleasure. We must do it again."
    Ashlee reaches through and gives Roxie a big hug, "Bye."
    Ashlee walks inside.
    Roxie begins to dust herself off, "Disgusting weirdo."
    Roxie then drives off.
    She begins to talk to herself, "Ashlee actually seems like a nice kid. Even though she's a socially awkward, freaky, mess. But she's Doris's daughter. There has to be some coldness to her. Doris Wolfe. Who would have thought that you'd live in Springfield. My Springfield. After what you did to me, you have some nerve coming to this town and then going after my family. Reva and everyone she cares about."
    An angry Roxie has to pull over.
    Roxie is filled with hate.
    Roxie sighs, "Doris. You hurt me, you betrayed me, and you took everything from me. And I'm sorry to say it but it looks as if your precious Ashlee is going to pay the price."

    Spaulding Mansion:
    Mel is upset by Alexandra.
    Mel walks away, "I'm not going to fight with you Alexandra."
    Alex scoffs, "Well you better listen to me. Or else you are going to be doomed to have your life ruined."
    Mel turns to her, "What are you talking about?"
    Alex sits on the couch, "Come here."
    Mel sits with her.
    Alex looks at her, "In this world their are two kinds of people the powerful and the pawns. Annie Dutton is a powerful and she turned you and Alan Michael into her pawns."
    Mel shakes her head, "It's not like I sided with Annie. I was doing what I thought was best for Alan Michael."
    Alexandra nods, "And you have every right to do what's best for your husband. But you went to Annie Dutton. Annie is a psychopath. She may be more stable at the moment but no one can trust that woman. We can't let her be in control of the company."
    Mel shakes her head, "I don't give a damn about your company!"
    Alex shouts, "It's not just the company! Whoever is CEO holds all the power, of the company, of this house, heck even the town. Right now Annie Dutton is on her thrown. And as long as she is up there she is going to make everyone's lives hell. You thought Alan was bad? Just wait."
    Mel shakes her head, "It doesn't matter. Alan Michael and I aren't going to the next meeting."
    Alex nods, "Are you getting a proxy?"
    Mel sighs, "Alan Michael refuses to have his vote for anyone. And I signed mine to Olivia."
    Alex gets up, "Olivia Spencer?" she laughs, "Oh goodness. She's trustworthy huh?"
    Mel sighs, "Olivia is my friend."
    Alex nods, "You and Natalia putting your trusts into Dinah Marler and Olivia Spencer. There is something very wrong with that picture."
    Alexandra walks away leaving Mel with a lot to think about.

    Towers:


    Blake sits back down with Alan.
    She sighs, "Wow. What a party huh? But you know I wouldn't expect anything less in Springfield."
    He scoffs, "I hope you are not planning to go check on Harley."
    Blake shakes her head, "I don't even know what I'd say."
    Alan nods, "I guess you can relate to Susan. After what happened between you, your mother and Ross."
    Blake turns to him, "You really want to talk to me about parents and children hooking up with the same people?"
    Alan laughs, "I suppose not."
    Blake looks at him, "We're not friends Alan. Don't forget that. All I need from you is to keep Lizzie away from Remy."
    Alan grins at her.
    Back by the kitchen Harley is hiding.

    Phillip approaches her, "You okay?"
    She shakes her head, "The love of my life has been screwing my daughter. Of course not."
    Phillip sits by her, "Yeah. I remember coming home to find out that Beth had married my father. That was rough."
    Harley cries, "I feel sick. I don't even know if I'm allowed to be mad."
    Phillip nods, "Of course you are. There are lines that you don't cross."
    Harley laughs, "But who am I to judge. I was married to Gus's brothers, you and Alan Michael."
    Phillip nods, "It's different."
    Harley sighs, "You are being so nice to me."
    Phillip nods, "Well I was under the impression we could be friends again."
    Harley cries, "I've missed you Phillip."
    The two hug.

    Company:
    The waitress brings the food over.
    Bill smiles, "Thank you. This looks great."
    The waitress looks at Shayne, "How are you Mr. Lewis?"
    He smiles, "Great now. Food brought to me by a beautiful woman. What more could I want."
    She giggles then walks away.
    Bill grins, "You got the Lewis charm my friend."
    Shayne laughs, "I suppose so. She's cute."
    Bill looks at him, "So are you thinking of going out with women again."
    Shayne sighs, "Okay. I know it's hard to understand but I don't just date men or women. I am open. I find both attractive. But yes right now I'm leaning towards women."
    Bill grins, "Well I'm gonna help you find a girl. You know who is single, Lizzie Spaulding. She's cute."
    Shayne sighs, "Yeah she had a crush on me in high school. But she has a kid with my brother."
    Bill nods, "Oh yeah. Hey Ashlee Wolfe, she's young but she's cute."
    Shayne shakes his head, "She's nice but I'm not really looking for a good girl right now."
    Bill sighs, "Well be careful. I used to like the bad girls before Michelle. Let me tell you, the last girl almost killed me. Literally."

    Ravenwood:
    Ava goes and sits in the corner.
    Edmund is angry, "How dare you? Don't you ever say that to me again! Don't you ever make me feel lower than Jeffrey O'Neill."
    Ava smirks, "Jeffrey would have got me out of here. Jeffrey was a good father to me. And if it wasn't for Marah digging her nose where it doesn't belong he would still be my father."
    Edmund shakes his head, "He was never your father."
    Ava looks at him, "You never wanted me. You let Olivia and Jeffrey believe they slept together and conceived me."
    Edmund shakes his head, "No. It wasn't like that."
    Ava jumps up, "I'm sick of this! I've never had a man I can depend on. Sandy only married me out of guilt. Coop just wanted to control me. Bill was using me. Maybe if I had a man who I could really count on I wouldn't be so messed up."
    Edmund sighs, "Ava please."
    She screams, "Get out! Leave me alone!!!"
    Edmund tries to calm her down.
    A nurse enters, "Mr. Winslow you'll have to leave."
    They escort Edmund out.
    Ava sits back in her chair and stares at the wall.

    Towers:
    Phillip walks Harley back into the party.
    Gus approaches her, "Harley I-"
    She speaks calmly, "Don't talk to me."
    Susan sighs, "Mom-"
    She shakes her head, "Just leave me alone please."
    Susan looks at her, "Mom you shouldn't be driving tonight."
    Harley turns to Cyrus, "Could you give me a ride home?"
    Cyrus nods, "Of course."
    Cyrus takes Harley's hand and walks her to the elevator.
    Gus and Susan follow.
    Susan sighs, "When can we talk about this?"
    Harley looks at them, "I don't know if I'll ever be able to look at you two the same again."
    The elevator doors close before anyone can say anything.
    Annie walks over to Alan's table, "Well that was interesting."
    Alan sighs, "Yet another evening wasted on one of Harley Cooper's cries for attention."
    Annie nods, "I couldn't agree more. But it's not all ruined. I swayed some votes my way."
    Phillip walks over, "You two nervous?"
    Alan laughs, "Of you son? No."
    Annie looks at both of them, "May the better woman win."
    The three all look at each other.
