    The Light: Episode 017
    Tuesday, November 22, 2006
    Thanksgiving Celebration Episode Thanksgiving day has arrived in Springfield…as Reva, Cassie, Holly, Harley, Michelle and a mysterious woman prepares to host dinners of their very own.

    Reva comes downstairs and tells Joshua that Jonathan arrived in San Cristobel safe and sound. Reva also tells her husband that she talked with Dylan and that Hawk is on his way to Springfield with Rusty. Josh says they should head out to The Beacon, but Reva is gazing at pictures on the fireplace, she takes a picture of Marah and Reva says they need to make one stop.

    Holly and Michelle are in the Bauer kitchen cooking Thanksgiving dinner. Holly thanks Michelle for agreeing to help her today and Michelle tells her she was thrilled when Holly asked her. Michelle is about to ask Holly for advice when…Rick arrives with Ed in tow!!!

    Josh tells Reva that he thinks this is a bad idea, but Reva assures him that this is something that has to be done. An officer opens Roxie’s cell door and Reva goes in to see her sister. Roxie is setting in a corner of the cell and doesn’t acknowledge that Reva is there. Reva tells her sister that she done some very bad things, she continues and tells Roxie that she had no right to do what she did, sick or not. Roxie looks over and tells Reva that she killed Johnny and deserved it. Reva says because they’re sisters, she’ll hold no hard feelings towards Roxie, but she will never forgive her for the pain Roxie has caused her daughter!

    Marah thanks Cassie for letting her stay with her with last night…Cassie says anytime and hands her a cup of coffee. Marah says she wants to Cassie a question, she asks her aunt how she was able to forgive Reva for what she done, to Richard. Cassie reasons with her niece that she cannot feel like that, what Reva did was in the best interest of Richard. Cassie tells Marah, that Reva had no control of Roxie’s actions and she cannot blame her mother for Tony’s death. Marah says that she does and goes off to dress for dinner.

    Blake begins to have second thoughts about Thanksgiving at the Bauer house. When Ross sneaks up behind her…Blake shivers and Ross asks what that was and Blake makes a quick excuse, as she flashes back to the lunch she saw Ross having with her mother. Blake decides to confront Ross…but he surprises her with a diamond necklace and her professes his love for her!

    Josh and Reva arrive at The Beacon, where Cassie has setup a beautiful spread…everyone gathers: Cassie, Billy, Shayne, Hawk, Rusty, Tammy, RJ and Marah for dinner. Cassie pulls Marah aside and tells her not to make a scene today. The family all sit down for dinner as Josh prepares to make a toast, but Marah stands up and declares, she wants to tell everyone what she’s not thankful for. “All my life…I’ve been shadowed with being Reva Shayne Lewis’ daughter. Some times it was a blessing, more often times it wasn’t…” Joshua warns Marah to stop now and Reva tells him to let her speak… “Tony is dead and it’s because of your actions. You set this into motion. I blame you Mother for this...I blame you for most of the bad things that have happened in my life." Josh slams his fist on the table and tells Marah that is enough…she agrees that it is and throws her napkin on the table and leaves!!

    Holly and Michelle call the family together and alone in the kitchen Holly says this reminds her of past dinners she and Maureen hosted. Michelle smiles and tells Holly that she’s considered her a surrogate mother for many years…and something that has been weighing on her mind lately…Blake arrives ending conversation and Holly promises Michelle they’ll talk more later.

    Marah arrives at the Santos mansion with a frozen pizza and case of beer. She finds Danny alone in the study and tells him that she figured he would be alone. Danny asks her to leave, but Marah says she cannot do that, because the people who loved Tony should be together, today especially. Marah says she is so very sorry for Danny’s loss…she says that she is going to put the pizza in the oven and the two of them are going to reminisce about Tony!

    With Company closed for the holiday, the Cooper family gathers together to celebrate. Marina tells Ben that Gus hasn’t told Harley about his trip to Chicago or what he was doing there. Ben says then by all means Marina should tell Harley.

    One by one the Spaulding family begins to enter the Towers dining room. They all question who it was that brought them here, when Lizzie reveals herself, stunning everyone. She says that the family has been out of touch with one another for far to long and that stops today…if only for today. Lizzie tells everyone that will sit, eat and be polite. Which they do, as Beth keeps a longing eye on Olivia!

    Thanksgiving dinner is served at the Bauer home, as Ed says grace over the dinner and thanks God for his healthy, happy family!

    Marina goes and begins talking to Harley…she is about to tell her what she saw in Chicago, but Gus arrives and Marina is stopped. Ben asks what happened and Marina tells him that Gus arrived and she thinks he’s about to tell Harley the truth about what happened. Meanwhile, inside the kitchen, Gus tells Harley that after dinner he wants to show her what he’s found…Harley asks him to tell her now and he agrees…Gus tells Harley that he believes his mother is….ALEXANDRA SPAUDLING!

    With half the pizza ate…and only a few beers left…Marah and Danny are talking about Tony, when he reaches over and kisses her!!

    By Josh,

    The Light: Episode 018
    Friday, November 24, 2006 Marah wakes up in the Santos mansion…in her bra & panties. As she dresses she tries to recall what happened the night Thanksgiving. As she pulls her hair back into a ponytail she has a flashback of her and Danny kissing and then back to reality as she leaves the room.

    Blake returns from taking the kids to school and finds Ross in the kitchen, sneaking a piece of leftover pie. She tells him that she is going to get ready for the service and Ross tells her that he won’t be going. Blake flies off the handle and asks Ross, just exactly what he’ll be doing, and Ross tells her he’ll be doing work related errands.

    Beth and Phillip are stunned when Lizzie tells them that she’s managed to work ahead of schedule and graduate early. Beth tells Lizzie that she’ll move into Towers with her, until the three of them can find another place. Phillip pulls Beth aside and tells her she is acting like a child and asks her to move back into the mansion…Lizzie begs her mother, but Beth declines, however she’ll allow Lizzie to move into the mansion if she wants.

    Holly surprises Michelle when she arrives at the Bauer house. Michelle thanks Holly for stopping by before the service and that it is going to mean a lot to her that Holly is there today. Holly however informs Michelle that she’s been called into an important meeting at Springfield University. Michelle tells Holly she understands, but insists that the two of them have dinner afterwards. Holly agrees.

    Harley and Gus sit down to breakfast the next morning and she questions how sure he is about Alexandra being his mother. Gus confesses that he lied about Roy Baker didn’t leave him any clues. Harley asks him why he did that and Gus tells her that he wanted to learn the truth on his own, which he did. Gus shows her the safety deposit box and they start going through the things…

    Beth decides that living in a Towers suite is not helping her regain control of her life, like she had originally anticipated after her split with Bill. Beth is packing up her belongings when she runs across a copy of “The Journal” that has Alan and Olivia’s picture on the front page and the announcement of their baby. She tosses the paper in the trash can and begins cleaning out a dresser drawer, when she finds a small black pistol, in the very bottom.

    After reading the journals and all the content of the safety deposit box, Gus asks Harley what she thinks, but the time for Tony’s service is getting closer and Harley tells Gus that she wants him to think about this some more and then go talk to Alexandra!

    Holly and Michelle call the family together and alone in the kitchen Holly says this reminds her of past dinners she and Maureen hosted. Michelle smiles and tells Holly that she’s considered her a surrogate mother for many years…and something that has been weighing on her mind lately…Blake arrives ending conversation and Holly promises Michelle they’ll talk more later.

    Lillian arrives at Company and Buzz tells her that a lady has been asking for her. Buzz points her in the corner and Lillian is surprised to see her travel agent at a table, waiting for her.

    Beth is leaving Towers carrying several boxes when she meets Bill in the elevator. He offers to help her and Beth finally gives in. Beth tells Bill that she’s moving back in with Lillian.

    Blake decides not to go to Tony’s memorial service and follows Ross to Springfield University where he is supposed to be having an interview. She watches from afar and witnesses Ross arriving and then later…Holly! Blake decides this, whatever it is has to end!

    After the travel agent is gone, Buzz goes and sits down with Lillian. She asks why he's not at the ball and he tells her that someone has to run Company. He asks Lillian if she is planning a trip when he notices her plane tickets...Lillian reveals she's going to see a friend in OAKDALE!!

    Beth and Bill arrive at Lillian’s house and he’s carrying one of the boxes for her when he stumbles and drops a box. Beth quickly works to pick everything up, but Bill finds the gun and questions why Beth even has it. Beth tells Bill that she has it for her own reasons and tells him that he’s helped enough and that he can leave!

    Citizens of Springfield arrive the church to mourn Tony…including his brother Father Ray, who has been transferred to a Catholic church in Chicago. Marah tells Ray how very sorry she is, as her and Danny come face-to-face with one another for the first time since they kissed. Danny tells Marah he doesn’t want this to be weird or strange for her, but they will have to talk about it sooner or later. Marah sees Tony’s casket and decides that it will be much later…as she then takes a seat for the service to begin.

    By Josh,

    The Light: Episode 019
    Monday, November 27, 2006 Marah leaves The Beacon the morning after Tony’s memorial service and heads over to the Santos mansion, with clear-cut intentions. However once she arrives she finds the mansion completely empty and begins to wonder around…first through the living room where she finds the bar nearly empty and she flashes back to Thanksgiving…the kiss that Marah and Danny shared…followed by Marah stopping herself.

    Lillian Raines arrives back in Oakdale, Illinois and drives from the airport to Java…where she meets up with her longtime friend, Dr. Susan Stewart!

    Blake meets Harley and Cassie at Company and tells the women about her suspensions about her mother and Ross. Harley asks Blake if she really thinks Holly would be sleeping with Ross and Blake says that she doesn’t want to believe it, but thinks turn about is fair play. Cassie asks what information Blake has to back up her suspensions and Blake tells her what she know so far…

    Ed is running rounds at Cedars when he bumps into Mel who is doing the same. Ed inquires as to how Mel is feeling and she assures him she is fine…but after he leaves she rubs her stomach and begins to cry.

    Reva and Josh are at the police station finishing some paperwork with Frank regarding Roxie’s transfer back to Oklahoma. Reva says that her, Hawk and Johnny have found a more secure hospital…Frank says that Danny hasn’t decided whether or not to press charges against Roxie, just as he is arriving.

    Marah is in Tony’s bedroom…sitting on his bed thinking about them together, during their happier times. She is overcome with emotions as she begins looking through his closet…she is overcome with grief and she leaves, running past Danny’s bedroom where she woke up the morning of the memorial service. Marah flashes back…she remembers Danny carrying her there…laying her on the bed…she took her clothes off and came on to him…but her refused her…

    Danny explains that he’s thought about what Tony would want…and that he would not want Marah’s aunt to be in jail and that Tony died doing what he promised Marah and Josh he would do, protect Reva. Danny tells Frank that he does not want to press charges.

    Lillian and Susan talk about their respective lives…Susan tells her about Alison and Aaron in Seattle…Hal’s death and Emily’s decent into madness. Lillian sympathizes with Susan and informs her about her own woes with Beth. Susan tells her that is enough about that and surprises her with a dinner invitation for the two of them with Dr. John Dixon.

    Harley tells Blake that she should hire a private investigator to track Ross, but Blake says that seems so underhanded and sneaky, to which Harley reminds her she is Roger’s daughter. Harley tells Blake that her PI is one she trusts, even though he’s loud and full of himself he does get the job done. Harley gives her the card and jets off.

    Danny returns to the mansion to find Marah waiting for him…Marah questions why he didn’t tell her that nothing happened between them. Danny says it didn’t matter, but Marah assures him that it did. Danny asks her to leave so he can be alone, which she agrees…before she goes, she tells Danny that she blames Reva for Tony’s death and that she is moving out of the house, unaware of what Danny has just done!

    The Light: Episode 020
    Wednesday, November 29, 2006 Blake meets Harley at The Beacon. Blake asks Harley if the PI is going to show up like he promised her on the phone, Harley assures Blake that he will and that he'll take her case...if Blake brought the money he asked for on the phone earlier. Blake says that she did and the two friends wait. While they wait, Blake voices her fears to Harley and wonders what she'll do if Ross is indeed having an affair with her own mother. Before Harley can reassure Blake that everything will work out, the PI arrives...


    In Oakdale, Illinois...Susan and Lillian go into Memorial before Lillian leaves to head home to Springfield. While walking the halls Susan tries yet again to get Lillian to move to Oakdale and work at Memorial. Susan tells her it would be a benefit to her as well, with Lillian being her AA sponsor and all these days. Lillian says that she can't leave Beth and Lizzie alone in Springfield...no matter how much they push her buttons, both women are laughing and having a good time when they spot across the hall...Kim Hughes!!!

    Marah returns from home where she finds Josh in the living room waiting on her it seems. Her father inquires as to when Marah plans to move back home and she says that she doesn't know quite yet if she's ready. Josh tells Marah that he knows Tony's death has been hard on her, but she's going to have to find it in her heart to forgive Reva one way or another and move on with her life, much like Danny is trying to do. Marah becomes defensive and says that Danny is not moving forward that he's stuck in neutral feeling guilty and pissed at Reva...which Reva overhears as she is eavesdropping at the top of the staircase.

    Susan quickly darts into an unoccupied room and Lillian questions if Susan and Kim are having problems again. Susan admits that every time she sees that woman she wants to pick a bottle of Vodka up...and smash it across her head...the women laugh and Susan says she is only kidding and they continue with their walk through the hospital.

    Olivia and Alan go for a sonogram of the baby...Dr. Sedwick questions if the proud parents want to know the sex of their child and they agree that they do. After a moment Dr. Sedwick congratulation Alan and Olivia...they're having a baby girl!! The couple seems to bond over their first child together!!

    Josh tells Marah that Danny has decided not to press charges against her Aunt Roxie for her part in Tony's death...which sends Marah into a tailspin!! She's angry and begins lashing out towards her father...Marah asks Josh when he is going to open his eyes and see Reva for what she truly is...just then Reva appears and asks Marah what she thinks she truly is...

    Marina and Tammy meet Lizzie at Company and the three girls are reunited! Lizzie explains that she is coming home to attend Springfield University in the spring. Marina and Tammy tell Lizzie that they've been accepted this spring as well and Lizzie suggests they should get an on-campus suite together. Later, Marina is talking about her boyfriend Ben, which Lizzie remains quite about having stayed with him when she returned to Springfield...Tammy says no boyfriend, but she did meet a really cute, interesting guy in Minnesota named Derek Bowden...Lizzie recalls her mysterious dance partner the night of the gala and wonders who he is...

    Harley and Blake meet Mr. Henry Coleman [Trent Dawson]...Harley's PI also from Oakdale. Henry tells Harley to order him a martini allowing him some one on one time with... Blake introduces herself as Ms. Blake Thorpe. With Harley gone, Blake tells Henry that her friend has faith in him to get the job done. Henry assures her for the right price, he'll get the job done. Blake gives him two pictures: one of Ross and the other of Holly. She tells him she wants him to find out if her mother is sleeping with her fiancé. Henry promises Ms. Thorpe he'll get the job done!

    Marah tells Reva that she's exactly what Roxie called her the night she murdered Tony...a whore, a slut...that she has led Josh on for all these years...Marah tells Reva that she couldn't handle being a mother to her or Shayne, even Dylan and Jonathan that when the going got tough, Reva got going. Reva stands firm listening to Marah vent...but Josh refuses to listen to anymore of it and puts Marah on warning, but she progresses forward...she lashes out at her father telling him that he is no better than Reva, always searching for her...never accepting the fact that whatever Reva touched turned bad...Reva then warns her daughter, but Marah tells Josh he's not any better a parent to her and Shayne than Reva is...then all hell breaks lose...

    Lillian is about to leave to catch her plane to Springfield, when her and Susan bump into Dr. Braxton O'Dell [Jason Shane Scott]. Susan introduces him as a new intern working with her...Susan tells Braxton that Lillian is from Springfield and he recalls having met a young woman named Michelle Santos on the plane ride to Oakdale. Lillian informs him she knows Michelle and shakes his hand...and when she does a chill runs down her neck and she pulls away, saying she really must be getting to the airport.

    Reva grabs Marah by the shoulders and slaps her daughter across the face as tears swell in her eyes. She tells Marah that she knows she's grieving, that she knows she has made mistakes in her life and that she ran away when she couldn't handle those mistakes and that if Marah wants to yell and scream at her then she do it...at her. Reva says that is enough and she will not allow Marah to talk to her father that way any longer and show him such disrespect when he's done nothing but cared for her, her entire life. Marah stands stunned that Reva slapped her as she begins to cry...Reva tells her not to cry, that what just happened she asked for. Marah tells her mother to go to hell and storms out of the Lewis home!!

    The Light: Episode 021
    Thursday, November 30, 2006 Shayne is going to The Beacon to meet Tammy for dinner that evening when he spots Marah in her car in the parking lot. He knocks on the window and Marah tells him to go away, but he can see she has been crying and Marah finally lets her brother in…


    Michelle arrives at Company and begins to wait for Holly to arrive. As usual Holly is running late and apologizes she says she had a business meeting at The Beacon and it ran longer than she anticipated. Holly says that Michelle has wanted to talk to her about something all week long and she wants to know what it is…Michelle tells Holly…

    At Spaulding Enterprises, Alexandra summons Ben to her office where she tells him that she is going to need to speak with Vera Ginatonio and have a check cut to her for an amount she hands him on a small piece of paper. Alexandra tells him as he is leaving that she also will need to speak with Ross Marler as soon as he has a free moment.

    Shayne asks Marah what is wrong and she tells him that she got into an argument with their parents that resulted in Reva slapping her. Shayne is shocked that Reva slapped and asks Marah what she said to set their mother off. Marah says that she should have known that Shayne would have taken up for Reva. Shayne says that is not fair…because Marah didn’t have any right to yell at Josh or Reva, because Tony’s death is not their fault. Marah tells Shayne to get out of the car…Shayne says that he thinks that maybe Marah is regretting something she’s did to Tony and until she can accept that…she needs to stop punishing everyone around who loves her!

    Bill arrives at Phillip’s office…Bill says that he came because he has a concern regarding Beth! Phillip asks him what is going on. Bill tells Phillip that he helped Beth out of Towers the other day and she has a gun. Phillip is curious as to why that is a problem…Bill says Beth seemed a little unstable. Phillip says he appreciates Bill coming by, but Beth is not his worry anymore. Bill says he should have expected that from Phillip and leaves.

    Michelle tells Holly that before she left for Washington D.C. she slept with both Danny and Bill Lewis. Holly is taken aback…Michelle says that in D.C. she fainted and Mike took her to a hospital…Michelle tells Holly she’s pregnant! Holly questions what she is going to do…Michelle says she’s not sure yet, but makes Holly promise that she won’t reveal anything!

    Rick surprises Mel with a home cooked dinner when she returns from work, but she puts him off saying that she is tired and leaves Rick alone in the kitchen. Upstairs Mel breaks down in tears as she recalls Roxie running over her, causing her to lose the baby!

    Henry bumps into Ross leaving The Beacon hotel and begins to shadow him!

    At Lillian’s house…Beth is sleeping when she hears a male voice calling out to her…when she wakes up she see her evil step-father Bradley standing before her…he tells her Phillip will never love her…Bradley tells her if she can’t have Phillip, then no one should! Beth jolts from her sleep in sweat and tears!

    Marah shows up at the Santos mansion to find Danny unshaven. She asks how long it has been since he’s had a decent meal…Danny tells her it has been too long and asks if she wants to stay. Marah realizing this is the only place she has left to go says she does want to stay.

    Henry follows Ross to Towers where he goes into a suite…twenty minutes later, Holly wearing a scarf and sunglasses goes inside the same suite as Henry snaps pictures!!!

    In "THE LIGHT" with Gus Aitoro & Alexandra Spaulding
    Friday, December 01, 2006

    Nighttime falls over Springfield as lives begin to change forever… Gus having decided to end the looming questions once and for all goes to Spaulding Enterprises where he intends to confront Alexandra! Harley unknown to him has followed, just as Vera Ginatoni [Jill Larson] is arriving at the request of Alexandra.

    Alexandra is about to leave for the mansion when Gus breaks through the door and announces that this cat and mouse game she has been playing with him all these months end tonight…Gus demands that Alexandra give him the answers he wants!

    She tells Gus she’ll give him the answers he wants…just as Harley and Vera arrive…and apparently she’ll do it in front of an audience, Alex says as she nods to Vera.

    Harley warns Alex to stop playing games with Gus…that he does not deserve this…Alexandra assures Harley she’s not playing games and that Gus’ biological mother is standing right before his very eyes…

    Without missing a beat Vera reveals that she is in fact Gus’ biological mother. Gus becomes furious and screams at Vera that nothing makes sense. He tells her he used to know who he was…where he belonged. Vera assures him that he is Joe and Angela Augustino son. Gus says that is what he used to think and pulls Harley over by his side and declares his undying love for her, but says that he can’t commit to her the way she deserves until he knows the truth…Vera glances over Alexandra’s way and she nods to go ahead.

    Vera reveals that she was a servant in the Spaulding house when they lived in Chicago and Brandon sent her to bring Alex home when she was running around Europe…Vera says that is when she and Roy Baker had sex…Vera tells Gus that Roy Baker was his father. Harley questions why she gave him up and why the grave…Alexandra explains that Roy began stalking Vera…he beat her once and she feared for the baby’s life, so she helped Vera fake her death and place Gus up for adoption…Vera goes to hug Gus…but he rejects saying that none of this makes sense and he needs time to process…he leaves as Harley warns Alexandra and Vera that if this isn’t the complete truth, they’ll have to deal with her.

    After they’re both gone Vera takes her money from Alex and asks why she is doing this. Alexandra says that when her children get close to her…they get hurt or she hurts them…much like Gus is hurting now…but assures Vera that over time the hurt will go away and it will only last awhile and not lifetime…Vera leaves and alone in her office, Alexandra Spaulding begins sobbing and breaks down!! ~COMING THIS WEEKEND~

    Saturday, December 02, 2006

    Nighttime falls over Springfield as lives begin to change forever…
    Same Day as Episode 20 & 21 Rick arrives at Outskirts where he finds Phillip waiting on him. Phillip asks how Rick is doing and notes that he didn’t sound very good on the telephone earlier that evening. Rick fills in the missing pieces regarding Roxie that Phillip didn’t already know…he also tells him how Mindy saved him from himself and finally about Mel…

    At the Bauer house…Mel has fallen asleep on the sofa while watching television and doesn’t hear Ed and Michelle come in from a late dinner. Ed inquires about Michelle and how she’s been feeling lately. Michelle tells her father that she is fine and reassures him that her episode in Washington D.C. was just because she wasn’t getting enough sleep…which she says she needs and head upstairs to bed…leaving Ed alone in the kitchen where he hears a frantic Mel wake from what appeared to be a nightmare…

    Harley manages to catch up with Gus at the house and asks him how he is feeling. Gus said that he thought for sure Alexandra was his mother and Harley tells him that just because Vera said she was his mother, doesn’t make it so…that there are ways to prove that she is telling the truth. Before Gus can respond Vera arrives…

    Her plane having been delayed in Oakdale, Lillian is just now arriving back home in Springfield, as a thunderstorm appears to be rolling in. As she is driving from the airport to home, she suddenly realizes she has a flat tire. Lillian soon learns that she has a jack…just not a spare tire when a car stops to help her…

    With the rain storm setting in Reva and Josh decide to catch a movie, despite Reva worrying about Marah. She asks Josh if she was out of line for slapping her and he assures he she was not and that what Marah said she didn’t mean. Reva says she has let her children down over the years and Marah was right on the money regarding Dylan and Jonathan…Josh tells Reva that Marah is in a difficult place at the moment dealing with Tony’s death and that over time she’ll forgive Reva. She thanks him for being there supporting her through all of this…Josh tells her there is not any other place he would want to be…the couple kiss and later make love!

    Phillip inquires about what is wrong with Mel and Rick says that she has been acting weird lately. Phillip urges Rick to give her time, let her deal with Roxie on her own terms and for him no to push her. Rick says that he wants to do that but he really wants to start a family with Mel and he’s not sure if she wants that. Phillip suggests that maybe Mel is feeling afraid, with Rick’s heart condition and her being stalked…he suggests Rick let it wait out awhile longer and then suggest the thought to Mel. Rick thanks Phillip for the talk and leaves…

    At Olivia’s bar in The Beacon, Henry Coleman is enjoying a martini when Blake arrives. She questions, if he has what she asked for…which Henry assures he does and hands over a digital camera with pictures of Ross and Holly at Towers. Blake pays him, drops the camera in her purse and leaves…

    Vera tells Gus that she has his adoption papers and assures him that everything with the Joe and Angela was legal. She says that his father was a good, honest man…that understood why she did what she did. Vera says that Joe helped her fake her death and that she did all of that to assure that Gus had a good life, which he did. Vera says that her coming here changes his past, not his future. Harley scribbles her telephone number down on a small piece of paper and tells Vera to call them tomorrow, that she and Gus need time to process this information. Vera tells Gus she does want to get to know him better and then leaves, as Harley leads Gus upstairs to bed.

    Ed gives Mel a warm cup of milk and asks if she wants to talk about it. Mel says that it was just the same dream she has been having for the last couple of nights…as Rick steps into the kitchen, unnoticed…Mel says the dream is the same thing over and over again, Roxie running her down. Ed says that she needs something to take her mind off of everything, Ed suggests that Mel help him plan an old fashion Bauer Christmas, the ones like Maureen used to host…he says it would be good for her, Rick, Michelle and especially him. Mel agrees…as Rick wonders outside if Mel is being distant because of him!

    Lillian is glad to see that behind the wheel of the car is Billy Lewis. After searching through his car Billy realizes that he doesn’t have a jack either. As the storm sets in Lillian calls triple A and they say it will be an extra 60-90 minutes, Billy suggests that he offer her a ride, but she tells him the triple A operator told her not to leave the vehicle, then much to her surprise Billy says he’ll wait with her…as he climbs into Lillian’s car she splits a candy bar and the two begin talking and laughing!!

    Blake arrives at Outskirts and orders a shot of Jack Daniels…slams it and takes another one! As the bartender pours it for her, Blake begins cursing aloud, “Son of a bitch…” over and over until Phillip questions if she kisses her children with that mouth. Blake turns to him and displays a devious smile…Blake asks him if she’s changed over the years…that Phillip has known her for a very long time, when she was good and bad…Blake questions why bad things happen. Phillip says that he doesn’t really know and doesn’t really have time to figure it out with her…Blake downs her Jack Daniels and tells him that he’s a son of bitch and a nephew of a bitch as well, but then again if the seed is bad…Phillip says he has no idea what she is talking about and leaves…headed towards Lillian’s house to see Beth… ~COMING THIS WEEKEND~

    Danny attempts to reason with Marah about why he didn’t press charges against Roxie…she tells him that what her aunt did was wrong, but she wasn’t stable enough to understand that. Marah tries to argue with him, but Danny sees right past that and asks Marah what she’s feeling guilty about, she tells him she is feeling guilty about nothing…but Danny insists that she is…Marah tells him that he does not know what he’s talking about and asks if he is going to let her stay with him and Danny says that he already said yes as Marah goes off to shower…

Cassie then tells Harley she is having men problems as well and Harley questions if she is talking about Danny. Cassie says that she has invited him to dinner a few times but it’s not any use…Harley suggests Cassie try something non-romantic, like work, mixed with dinner giving Cassie an idea…

    Marah steps out of the shower and wraps herself in a robe…she finds some clothes that Danny laid out for her…after she is dressing, Marah is gazing in the mirror…when Tony [Jordi Vilasuso] appears to her…Marah says that she’s sorry for ever doubting him…Tony says that he forgave her long before he ever died. Marah questions why he is here and Tony tells her she knows why…and leaves.

    Olivia arrives at Lillian’s to see Beth. Olivia reasons with her to reunite with Phillip because she can tell that he isn’t happy. Beth suggests that maybe Phillip isn’t happy because Olivia left him and the woman exchange heated words…Olivia said she had no other choice other than to leave him for Alan, because at the end of the day Phillip’s acts may show that he loves her, but she knows his heart is telling a different story…one that begins once upon time there was Beth and Phillip…and ends with happily ever after...

    Cassie arrives at the Santos mansion to find an unshaven Danny who seems to be busy and unwilling to talk. Cassie enters without being invited and sets up floor plans for a new restaurant/club where Inferno used to be…but Danny says he’s really not in the mood and wants to be alone. Cassie relucantely agrees to go, without Danny showing her out and listens at the door when he gets a phone call…Cassie hears Danny say that he wants to see her…but she doesn’t finish listening and leaves…with a clear cut agenda on her mind…to get and keep Danny no matter the cost!

    Blake tells Phillip that she’s changed over the years, matured…made mistakes yes, but always knew who she was. Phillip asks what has made her act this way because it does not seem very Blake like. She asks him if you ever really get over the one…your soul mate…then Blake says look who she’s asking, Phillip, who married and left half the women in Springfield for his soul mate. Blake says she go home…wherever that is, leaving Phillip very confused…he pays the tab and leaves to go see Beth…

    Danny is shaving when Tony also appears to him…Danny questions why he is there and Tony says he knows why…Danny questions, “Marah?” Tony says they need one another.

    Olivia asks when Beth is going to wake up from this dream world she is in and realize that Phillip Spaulding is the best thing that has ever happened to her. Olivia tells Beth that Phillip is a catch and the sooner she realizes that the better off she’s going to be…Beth asks Olivia what that means and Olivia tells her that something could happen to Beth, to Phillip and then she would have to live the rest of her life without him…Olivia asks if she is willing to do that…

    Marah comes into the living room where she finds Danny in the living room with a roaring fire…he tells her that it’s starting raining outside…Marah sits down and tells him that she feels comfortable here…almost safe…Danny tells her it has a weird feeling to it and she says that it most certainly does…as she moves in to kiss Danny…

    After Olivia leaves Beth tries to lie down and go to sleep, but with the rain it becomes almost impossible and she decides to take a sleeping pill that Lillian has and she immediately drifts off to sleep.

    Lucy and Alan-Michael [Heather Tom & Dan Gauither] awake, their first morning back in the mansion and it is obvious that Lucy is uncomfortable being there. Lucy questions if Alan-Michael spoke with his father last night after drinks about them not staying. A-M tells Lucy that this is not the time to discuss anything like that and while Lucy understands that she makes sure that her husband understands that they will not be staying in Springfield after Phillip’s funeral.

    James tells Lizzie that he went to Beth’s room and she wouldn’t answer the door. James also tells Lizzie that last night when he got up to go to the bathroom he heard Aunt Alex crying, the toddler asks Lizzie why she looks so sad. James asks if it is because Daddy isn’t home yet. Lizzie tears up and tells James that Phillip not being home has a lot to do with it yes. Outside in the hallway Lillian is about to enter Lizzie’s bedroom when she hears her talking to James, she stops outside to listen to her grandchildren. Lillian is moved to tears when she sees Lizzie wrap James into her arms and explain to the young child that Phillip is in heaven with the angels and that he’ll be watching over them protecting them forever.

Lillian tells her daughter, “If you think I’m going to allow you to wallow in this bed all day and let your children, who need you, now more than ever…then daughter you are out of your mind.” Lillian strips the sheets off of Beth’s bed and tells her to get up. Beth continues lying in bed saying that she can’t do it and is on the verge of a nervous break down…Beth tells Lillian that she can’t do this and that it is going to have to be Lillian who is there for Lizzie and not her. Lillian retorts, “I’ve dealt with a lot of heartache in my life Beth Raines and I raised you to be strong and independent, to be a good loving mother. So please, please don’t fail me know like I failed you.”

    Lillian is setting on the foot of Beth’s bed and Beth crawls on her knees and wraps her arms around Lillian and softly whispers, “You have never failed me. Please don’t ever say that you did or even think it.” Lillian in tears tells Beth she has to pull herself together for Lizzie and James. Lillian tells her daughter to get dressed and leaves the room. Outside in the hallway, she leans up against the door and begs God to help them all!

    Beth has finally gotten dressed and is looking for a pair of black shoes in her suitcase when she hears the door open and a familiar voice speak, “Phillip Spaulding loved many women in his life…but my God he never loved one like he did you Beth.” Beth spins around and sees Mindy Lewis [Krista Tesreau] standing there and the women reunite and grieve over Phillip’s death. Beth tells her what the police know about the shooting and Mindy weeps over her beloved friends murder. Lucy knocks on Beth’s door and tells her that the limo has arrived to take them to the service.

The service begins with Father Ray Santos reading Phillip’s obituary…followed by a song and then Mindy Lewis who reads the 23rd Psalm and then speaks, “A lot of us here today was fortunate to have been loved by Phillip at some point in our lives. I, myself was privileged to have been loved by him, twice over. But no matter how many women desired or had him, none of us were able to capture his heart quite like the way Beth always did. The truth of the matter is any woman other Beth was just a second fiddle. Honey, he loved you…more than he loved anyone. Carry that with you always.”

    Amazing Grace softly begins playing softly as mourners make their way to pay their final respects. After all have gone through, the family does the same, however Lizzie and Beth stay behind together.

As she kisses the casket, she thanks Phillip for always loving her through it all!

    Following the services everyone goes back to the Spaulding Mansion for a service and Beth tells Lillian that she has to go lie down for a nap…

    Upstairs she drops her earrings into her jewelry box and she sees her wedding ring from Phillip, she snaps the box shut and tells herself she has to move forward that he’s gone. Beth slips on the same nightgown she had on the night Phillip died and lays down to rest. She begins tossing and turning, as she does so she hears two gunshots ring out! And her mind races with memories…Phillip at the hospital, the flowers Phillip was going to give her, the funeral and then she hears someone calling out her name…”Beth. Beth…wake up.”

    THE LIGHT Opening Springfield High School is buzzing as the second half of their senior year begins. Lizzie, Marina, Tammy and Shayne are equally surprised to see that they have homeroom together. Lizzie begins to feel like an outsider because she was away at boarding school for the first semester suggests that the four of them hang out on the weekend, but Marina turns her down while Tammy says she’ll think about it, Shayne however remains very quiet at first and then declines Lizzie’s offer.

    Everyone at the board meetings is stunned and surprised by Alan-Michael’s return. Alan greets his son with a firm hug followed by Phillip and Alexandra. A-M explains that he wanted to come home for a visit since he missed the holidays and figured that this was the perfect time. For a single split moment Alexandra considers that she nominate Alan-Michael for CEO but decides against it and recalls the board meeting to order!

    Lucy arrives at Company and finds it very quiet for a morning! Buzz is in the kitchen and doesn’t hear Lucy arrive! When he comes out though he is surprised and stunned to see his little girl standing before him! The two embrace in a big bear hug!

    As Alexandra taps her gavel one more person enters the meeting: Ross Marler. Blake is surprised that he is there and clearly upset because now she will have to interact with him!

    Lucy explains to Buzz that she and A-M flew in from Europe to see everyone and for A-M to handle Spaulding Enterprise business up close and personal for once. She explains that he is getting a little too cranky just pushing papers in the Europe offices and wanted to feel important. Buzz inquires if the trip will be a short visit or a long-term stay?

    After homeroom Tammy and Marina head off together for their next class. Tammy tells Marina that she thinks something is wrong with Shayne and that he hasn’t been acting himself lately. Marina says she hasn’t really noticed anything but suggests that maybe his behavior/mood change is because of the tension and fighting between Marah and Reva. Tammy agrees, but decides to do more to find out what is really wrong.

    Alexandra is short and to the point. She says that after careful consideration she feels that Spaulding Enterprises would be managed better by Alan, rather than herself and admits that she only maneuvered her way to CEO for revenge and selfish reasons and that she is stepping down as CEO of Spaulding Enterprises, while remaining as COO (Chief Operating Officer) and Senior Vice President of the company. She urges the board to elect Alan, which they unanimously do and Alan Michael’s wheels begin to turn!

    Lucy however assures her father that this visit is only short-term! That she and A-M don’t want any part of the power struggle between Phillip, Alexandra and Alan. Lucy tells Buzz she just wants to visit with her family and not think about when they’re leaving! Buzz hugs her one more time and tells her it is so good to see her!
