Was this the adult parody of that storyline?

[EricMontreal22]

LOL! Oops. But if there was one I'd so track it down.

[Pine Charles]

"Density on the Danude" would rival "Jenny Does the Big Apple".

[EricMontreal22]

Are you using Destiny on OLTL's mean nickname on purpose?

Article on bad soap children...

Karma...

The week AMC beat Y&R for half an episode...

[EricMontreal22]

What is going on in that poodle pic?? And aside from Maria and Kendall who are those people?

Richard Fields still freaks me out--I wish that was online too...

I wonder what ep 41 was?

[Pine Charles]

Loves it ALL!

[DRW50]

Soap Opera Weekly did that as a fun photo shoot - they did quite a few of those in the early 90s. That was reprinted in their 10th anniversary issue. I meant to scan all those but never did.

The others are Winsor Harmon, Cat Hickland, Erin Torpey.

[Angela]

The mags used to do "fun" shoots. That was a Barbie shoot.

Others in the picture: Catherine Hickland and Erin Torpey from OLTL. Windsor Harmon when he was Del on AMC.

[DRW50]

For some reason I always figured Dimitri was well-endowed and Edmund wasn't...why I don't know.

[EricMontreal22]

Of course--I liked Del back in the day, think I blocked the character out after the recast....

[Pine Charles]

OH! Me too!

Does that make us size queens!?

Pine Valley Happenings mid 76

Joe did indeed find Ruth's letter. He has confronted her with it and the upshot is that she will leave his home. She tells him again that she was never unfaithful to him, but that she does need time to be alone.

Frank visits Nancy in Chicago and gives her the news. He has an interview the next day but if it doesn't pan out, he is prepared to stay in Pine Valley until the right thing comes along. She may be without a husband for a good deal longer than initially anticipated!

The Good Fairy Returns

Phoebe is back from her Minneapolis trip and in rare form. Under the pretext of taking food to Linc in an effort to save him from impending starvation; she bribes the security guard to let her enter his apartment. Once in, she searches the house for a portrait of Kitty to send to Mrs. Lum/Carpenter to further aid in their deception of Kitty. Just as she finds a picture, Linc is coming through the front door. She runs into the kitchen, and once he's in, tells him she was just bringing his some of his favorite dishes. "It's such fun to play the good fairy," she quips. Good fairy, indeed!

Just about the only real "good fairy" in Pine Valley is Chuck Tyler! He's convinced Donna that tutoring might not be such a bad idea. He's also hired Dan Kennicott as her tutor! Dr. Tyler tells Chuck he's becoming too interested in Donna, but Chuck feels that she deserves his help, and he's determined to give it.

Philip is on his way to Arizona to surprise Tara and Little Philip. Let's hope Tara is not the one who surprises Philip!

When Philip arrives in Arizona, he will have to tell Tara that her father and his mother have separated and that Ruth is staying with him until she is able to sort things out. Ruth can no longer pretend. She has admitted to Kate that she loves David and Joe; and is just unable to come to grips with a specific course of action. Kate is understanding and believes Ruth when she denies intimacy with David. She just wishes Ruth didn't have to go. They tearfully embrace as they realize that there is a parting of the ways in store for them all.

Kitty gets the letter from her "mother". She calls immediately and as she hears her voice, tears of joy stream down her face. Her mother is alive!

As soon as David found out tat Ruth and Joe had separated, and where she was staying, he went right over. Ruth is so glad to see him; so glad not to be alone. As she rushes into his waiting arms, she says, "I need you. I need you now more than ever!" David begins to question her about the divorce, however she is still too confused to make a decision. But David loves her and is patient. He tells her of their new life together and the happiness they will share. He pledges to wait for her, and he pledges his love forever.

Phil arrives unexpectedly in Arizona and surprises Tara. Initially she is glad to see him. Then she learns that he came without the doctor's permission. Tara insists that they speak to the doctor, even before Phil is allowed to see his son. Phil tells her that he's afraid of losing her and little Philip to Chuck. Tara tells him that this will never happen.

Kitty has asked Anne for permission to leave the shop for a few days so that she can be reunited with her "mother". Anne is very happy for Kitty and readily agrees. Little does Kitty know that (should Phoebe's plan work out) she may never see Pine Valley or Linc again.

Phil is not likely to see Little Philip any time soon. The doctor doesn't feel that now is a good time, perhaps later. Phil is upset, but makes arrangements to see Tara later that evening at his motel.

Phoebe Has to Ante Up

Kitty and Linc are all packed and on their way to Minneapolis to see her "mother". Although all her friends are happy for her and wish her well, Linc tells Charles that he has an "uneasy feeling" about Kitty's "mother." When Phoebe learns that Linc is going too, she is upset. Linc's going was not part of her well laid out plans. She immediately calls Mrs. Lum/Carpenter to tell her of the development. Mrs. Lum now sees the whole picture. Phoebe makes it very clear that she does not want Kitty to leave with Linc. Mrs. Lum seizes the opportunity to demand more money; either Phoebe will cough up $5000 more, or Mrs. Lum will tell Kitty and Linc the truth. Phoebe agrees.

Nick invites Erica to dinner. He re-offers her the job with the condition that she divorce Phil immediately. By the time Nick finishes wondering aloud if Erica can really handle the job and what she would do if she met "Mr. Right" and she weren't available... Erica is almost begging Nick for the job!

The rest results for Anne are in: she is a victim of toxoplasmosis. How will Paul tell Anne that their baby is in danger? The baby they have both loved and wanted and planned for, for so long. Fate has dealt them a bitter blow, indeed.

Brooke's boyfriend is coming to the Tyler mansion for a visit! It is only now, that he is hours away, that Brooke tells Phoebe the "Bitter Truth." Brooke's young man is not onlynot a college man -- he is not even from a "name" family! Tsk, tsk Brooke, you should know better!!

$5,000 Performance Begins

Kitty and Linc arrive at Mrs. Lum/Carpenter's and she begins her performance. Kitty stares at her in happy disbelief. She's with her mother at last after all these years -- she's finally with her mother whom she has loved so dearly. Linc does not seem to be so readily taken in, but is warm and genuine towards Kitty's "mother" when they meet. Under the pretext of wanting to be alone with her "little girl" Mrs. Lum/Carpenter gets Linc to leave them alone. She breathes a sigh of relief when he is gone. She knows that Kitty will believe anything she tells her, but she's not too sure about Linc.

Little Philip's doctor has finally given Phil permission to see his son. Little Philip is very happy to see Phil, but continually speaks of the wonderful time he had when his "dad" came to visit. Phil tries to pretend that it doesn't bother him -- but it's easy to see that it does.

When Paul comes home, Anne can see the pain in his face. She can see that the test results signal the possible doom of her unborn child. As Paul tries to console her, he tells her that their "options" are limited. To Anne, there are no options, for she knows that he other alternative is an abortion and this she will not do.

Erica is on the job and Nick is pressing her to keep her part of the bargain -- to divorce Phil at once.

Kitty and Linc had planned to leave the next day, but her "mother" has convinced her to stay.... Phoebe is sure to be pleased.

Donna is concerned for her and Chuck's safety. When she told Ty that Chuck had replaced the books he threw out of the window; Ty threatened her and Chuck's life! Donna has asked Chuck to come sit with her later that evening. She feels so much safer with him around!!

Donna decides to show Chuck how much she appreciates all the help he's given her... through the art of not-so-subtle seduction. When Chuck tries to explain to her that thanks of that nature are not necessary or wanted; she turns on him. In her fury and feelings of rejection, she calls Ty and asks that he take her home. Ty adheres to her request and comes to get her. She leaves the hospital unnoticed in a clinging low cut, red jump suit and returns to Center City. In Ty's efforts to take care of his "Number One," he's lined up some "johns" for her. That way she doesn't have to go out on the street, at least not yet. Thoughtful, isn't he?

Phoebe Unmasked?

Phoebe calls Mrs. Lum/Carpenter to see how things are going. Kitty has shown Mrs. Lum/Carpenter some of her wedding pictures and Mrs. Lum/Carpenter has recognized Mrs. English to be Mrs. Tyler -- the mother of Linc!! She calls Phoebe to let her know that her secret is out, but that for the time being, her secret is safe. In fact, Kitty is moving in with Mrs. Lum/Carpenter right now!

Brooke's boyfriend, Benny, overheard Phoebe talking to Mrs. Lum/Carpenter about the extra $5000 she demanded of Phoebe. Phoebe doesn't seem to be worried... maybe she's getting too cocky for her own good!!

There is still something about Kitty's "mother" that doesn't wash with Linc, but he's not sure what it is.

When Chuck realizes that Donna is gone, he's furious. He's determined to go to Center City. Frank advises Chuck against this, as does everyone else, but to no avail. Frank is very curious as to why Chuck is so very concerned about Donna's welfare. Frankly speaking, we are too!!
