I’m up to July 06, 1999.
*No July 4th recognition or Bauer BBQ this year - how sad!
Cassie confides in Blake about how worried she is for Reva and Josh going to San Cristobel. She says she found a box in their garage with a picture of a baby which matches the baby found in Reva’s San Cristobal ring. Meanwhile, we see Reva and Josh on a plane landing in San Cristobel (finally!). And we now have our location shoot, which was filmed in Puerto Rico (7/01)! Reva and Josh walk out of the airport, smell the ocean air and get into a limo, excited to finally figure out her mystery. Reva sees a little fruit stand on the side of the road and asks the driver to stop because she recognizes it (LOL). She’s adamant she’s been there before and Josh asks the lady manning the stand if she recognizes Reva. The limo driver discreetly tells her to be quiet, so she answers no. They leave and arrive at their hotel, where Josh tries to pay for the ride, but the driver says no, it’s free, and later under his breath says “we must all pray for her” (Reva). As Reva looks around the hotel, Josh checks in, but the receptionist rudely says there is no reservation for them, they’re sold out and no other hotel is available without a reservation. Reva overhears ladies talking on the terrace about the Prince getting married soon to his executive assistant, Olivia, who apparently has been in love with him for years. Reva is intrigued by the upcoming royal wedding, but Josh gives her the bad news about the reservation and she’s determined to find a way to stay. She goes to the receptionist and he seems shocked to see her (seemingly recognizing her), and he gives her the penthouse suite right away. Josh is perplexed why his attitude instantly changed with Reva. On their way to the suite, an older lady gives Reva flowers and does a curtsy, and then we hear the receptionist make a private call and say “You’ll never believe who came back, and now she’s calling herself Reva” - Friday cliffhanger! In the room, Josh voices his concerns that it feels like they’re being watched. We then see the new character, Olivia Spencer (7/05), walk up to the receptionist, confirming that he recently called the palace, and then shows him a picture of Reva, asking if that’s the woman he called about. He says yes, he’s certain that was her, and she mutters under her breath “My God it’s true, she’s come back”, and then cripples up the photo. He tells her she’s now using a southern American accent (so I guess her accent changed after her bridge incident LOL), and also says that after everything that happened, she’d be crazy to come back. After a quick romp in the sack, Reva and Josh go back to the lobby and Reva runs into Olivia. It is very quick and Olivia isn’t friendly, but realizes that Reva doesn’t recognize her and thinks that is odd, but Reva later tells Josh that she feels like she may have known her. They then stroll the streets, walking to their dinner, and people seem to stare at Reva. At the restaurant, everyone stares at them as they sit down which starts to freak them out. Reva then asks the waiter how he knows her, because it’s obvious that he does, but he lies and says he doesn’t. Olivia happens to be there and walks out. Reva notices her, so they leave and try to follow her, but we see Olivia make a call, telling someone to keep tracking them and don’t lose them. Reva then runs into an older lady that recognizes her and says she used to live there on the island, which makes Reva and Josh happy that they’re closer to solving the mystery. Meanwhile, Olivia is now searching their penthouse suite and sees a framed photo of their family (which is weird you would take that on a vacation), and finds the ring with the crest and she says to herself that Reva must remember her days there. She asks herself why Reva always has to get and take everything, and is scared that she’ll lose everything again because of her. She vows to not let Reva do this again because she’s a stronger person now and she will keep Reva far away from her life so she won’t ruin it again. Reva and Josh then come back to the room and Olivia hides, but they realize someone has been in there snooping around and they call the police.
Blake’s A/C is out, her shower is broken and she’s determined to fix it as a newly single mom. Ross happens to arrive to see the boys and he offers to help. While they’re in the bathroom, the boys (who have grown up and are being played by new actors - 7/01) are playing around and accidentally lock Ross and Blake in the bathroom. Holly takes the boys to see a movie (not knowing what happened), leaving Blake and Ross locked in together. They soon realize what’s happened and it’s actually pretty cute. They sit there on the bathroom floor reminiscing about their past milestones in life and it reminds you of the amazing chemistry these two have. Blake falls into the tub, but the cold water feels good so Ross joins her. They start playfully splashing each other and end up kissing each other passionately, while taking their clothes off. The next scene, they’re putting clothes back on and awkwardly discuss the quickie they just had. They each have an inner monologue, second guessing themselves and assuming the other didn’t really want that to happen even though they enjoyed it. They’re finally able to get the door open just as Holly and the boys walk back in. There is a funny, unintended exchange as they describe to Holly what happened, talking about how good Ross is at screwing things in and how he really knows how to work the plumbing (but not saying that they had sex). After Ross leaves, Holly keeps pressing Blake about what they did for all that time together, but Blake doesn’t tell her, even though you can tell Holly is happy about it all.
Ben and Beth run into each other at the Towers and have a drink together, catching up since it’s been a long time since they last hung out. Beth goes over her issues with Jim/Susan, while Ben tells her how Blake now wants to be a single independent woman, and he’s more interested in Carmen and her businesses now. Blake then walks in and they all see each other, but she goes to the bar. Beth leaves, and then Ross and India walk in. Blake overhears Ross and India talking about getting half of her ex-husband’s money, and Blake then goes to Ben and asks him to talk to her, which is a scheme to get Ross jealous and it seems to work. Blake tells Ben about having sex with Ross in the bathroom and they discuss things in a friendly manner, with Ben telling her she should be honest with Ross about her feelings, as he gets up and leaves. Ross confirms they can reopen India’s divorce settlement because her ex-husband hid some funds.
Max and Susan are each packing their things, preparing to run away, but Jim catches Susan. He searches her bag and finds a wad of cash (her savings) and realizes what she’s doing. He puts his foot down and says she’s going to the camp today. Drew and Jesse come by looking for Max, since he didn’t come home last night, and Susan lies and says she doesn’t know where he is. Drew tells her she plans to adopt him, which makes her happy. Cassie is able to finally get Susan to admit where Max is and Drew/Jesse leave for the gravesite. Meanwhile, we see Max flashing back to good times with Drew and it’s clear he’s torn up. He then gets to the gravesite and talks to his mom while he waits for Susan, but once Drew and Jesse arrive, he’s gone and she realizes her name was scratched off the tombstone, leaving her devastated. They realize he left a note for Susan saying he guesses she’s giving up on him too and she’s like everyone else. The next day, Frank tells them all that they can’t find him and Drew continues to be worried. Buzz and Selena are there for Drew and Jesse and comfort them. We then see Max walking along a highway and he pulls out a framed photo of Drew and himself and you can tell he misses her. Annie Lennox’s “Why” is playing over the background as he puts the photo away and puts out his thumb to continue hitchhiking. Meanwhile, while the music is still playing, Buzz finally asks Selena out on a proper date and she says yes.
Rick was severely reprimanded by the hospital board (offscreen) and suspended for what he did with Michelle and now he and Abby are in a bad place. After a lot of yelling and arguing, Abby eventually asks if they can go to the Bauer cabin to talk and reconnect, which makes Rick happy and they kiss/cry together. Meanwhile, Michelle and Danny get away and she takes him to her favorite place - Laurel Falls. He surprises her with a ring and says he wants to get married right then and there (renew their vows). Ray then shows up, they say their vows and are officially married once again (7/02). Danny then surprises her with a magical bed in the middle of the forest (LOL) and they make love. As they’re lying there basking in the afterglow, he says he wants to take her to San Cristobel for their honeymoon.
