Iâm up to December 22, 1998.
Josh escapes from the hospital and Reva confides in Abby that she thinks Annie is still alive and using Teri as an agent to destroy them. She then tells Frank her suspicions, but he doesnât believe it. Meanwhile, Josh goes to Teriâs and threatens her to tell him whatâs happening to him and why he canât stop dreaming and thinking of her. Frank calls Teriâs cell and sheâs able to answer and briefly tell him that Josh has held her captive and she needs help (a lie), so Frank heads that way after telling Reva and Abby on his way out. Josh keeps yelling at Teri and she tells him this is all Revaâs fault, and just as Frank and the cops are knocking on the door, Teri rips her shirt to make it seem like Josh roughed her up and Frank, Reva and the cops barge in and see a deranged Josh and a âhurtâ Teri. They argue about who is to blame, with Reva really being a [!@#$%^&*] to Teri. Teri finally pulls out her cell and plays voicemails that Josh left her saying he really needs to see and be with her, which stuns Reva and Josh both. Reva then says sheâs doctored the voicemails, which is something Annie could easily do. Josh then says thatâs his voice and he made those calls, but he has no idea why. Reva still says thatâs not her husband and sheâs done something to him. Reva refuses to let them take Josh to get a psych evaluation and wants to take him home, but Teri says sheâs left with no other choice, she places Josh under arrest because sheâs pressing charges on him for assault. LOL at how mad Reva is, I donât know if Iâve seen such raw vitriol coming out of Kim Zimmer like these last couple episodes. Anyway, Josh is now in the loony bin and Reva is desperate. Reva finally gets a hold of Cassie, tells her what is happening with Teri, and Cassie confesses that Josh really did act that way with her too. Cassie finally realizes that Reva is right and something strange is happening that Josh canât help, and she agrees to come back to SF to help Reva find Annie once and for all. I guess Laura Wrightâs maternity leave is now over.
India is hawking her jewelry at the Towers for money and runs into Ben. They flirt for a bit but she realizes heâs Rossâs brother and changes her tune. She tells him that Blake is âcommonâ and then leaves. I wonder what they plan for these two - a possible chemistry test? Anyway, Ross ends up buying the jewelry, not knowing anything about it, and gives it to India as a gift for taking care of him over Thanksgiving. Meanwhile, Ben goes to Blakeâs house to talk and they kiss under the mistletoe.
A guilt-ridden Holly goes to Buzz and tells him the truth that she told Jeffrey that Rocky was his son, and not Buzzâs (not directly, Jeffrey overheard her talking to Jenna about it). Heâs so confused and asks why and she said she got mad at Jenna for losing the children. He goes ballistic for a bit but calms himself down and walks away, while Ken watches from a distance. Ken tries to convince Holly not to tell the truth because she could be committed to the psych ward like he was. Buzz later apologizes to Holly for his reaction.
Hart and Dinah have been getting closer and they finally have sex. They plan on spending Christmas together, but as she takes Hartâs coat, a picture of Cassie falls out. Dinah doesnât like it and says they can cancel their plans, but Hart says he was planning to burn the photo and heâs over her. He tries to assure Dinah that sheâs the one he wants to grow with in the future, not Cassie (although I donât really buy it), and he burns the photo in front of her. Sheâs excited and wants to go buy a Christmas tree for Maureenâs first Christmas and they decide to go out in public for the first time without her bandages. They find a tree and head to Vanessa/Mattâs house. Meanwhile, Vanessa and Matt have been arguing again about a business deal between Spaulding and Lewis. They later talk about Hart/Dinahâs relationship and Vanessa mentions sheâs worried about Dinah once Hart finds out that Cassieâs baby really is his, which Hart/Dinah overhear as they walk in. Dinah pretends like they didnât say it specifically, which Vanessa backs up, but Hart isnât sure he believes it. Hart point blank asks Matt if the baby is his, and Matt canât support the ladies and he says yes, the baby is his. Hart is upset that everyone knew and didnât tell him and he storms out. Dinah tells Vanessa/Matt sheâll never forgive them for this, and Vanessa later gives Matt a hard time for telling the truth (ugh). He plans to leave and spend the night somewhere so they can have some space between them and cool off, but just as heâs leaving, Maureen starts walking for the first time. They get excited, Matt films them and things seem happy. He decides to stay home and says they all need to be together for Christmas and they kiss.
Drew and Selena get into it again at the diner over something silly and Drew tells Selena her daughter was lucky to not have to be raised by her. Selena says she must have been the daughter from hell for her parents, and Drew then fires Selena from her job at Millennium. The next day, the audience sees a baby picture of Drew in her apartment and then we see the same picture in Selenaâs bag when sheâs at Millennium getting her last paycheck, so I guess this is the audience reveal that Drew is Selenaâs daughter! Selena follows Drew to her apartment, arguing with her about getting her paycheck and sees the framed photo of Drew as a baby and Selena asks who it is. Drew, still upset, says itâs her as a baby and Selena realizes thatâs her daughter (12/18)! Drew kicks her out and Selena breaks down outside over the truth. She goes to Buzz and tells him about Drew and he supports her. Meanwhile, Jesse supports a crying Drew, who talks about being lonely and missing her father for her birthday/Christmas, and how she never had a mother because her adopted mother divorced her dad while she was really young. We find out Drew and her dad are Jewish and she wishes she could light the menorah with her dad, so Jesse later brings her a menorah and Drew lights the last candle, which was very sweet. They finally gave Drew some good material here and Tammy Blanchard is shining. The next day, Selena tells Buzz about a little birthmark her daughter had on her neck, so Buzz arranges for Drew to come by and he notices a little birthmark and realizes Selena is right. He tells Drew that Selena is actually a nice lady and has respect for her, even saying sheâs impressed by how hard she worked to open Millennium, which surprises Drew and makes her happy.
Susan continues to manipulate Harley into getting what she wants, which Phillip sees through. Susan clearly doesnât want Phillip around, and she confides in Harley that she doesnât think Phillip likes her (this girl is annoying me). She later asks if she can change her name to Daisy, as a Christmas gift. Harley isnât sure that would be nice to her dad, since he named her Susan. Phillip agrees, which pisses off Susan who gives him a death stare. Phillip later tells Harley she needs to stop trying so hard to appease this girl. Jim comes back with Christmas gifts and alone, Susan asks him what he thinks of Harley. She tells him that Harley said she really likes him and then she says Harley is so pretty. Ugh, it seems theyâre setting up a Harley/Jim pairing that Susan is plotting, which will drive Harley/Phillip apart. This girl is trouble.
Dinah goes to Annie for help with her Hart situation. Annie suggests she get drastic in her approach and find a way to make Cassie hate Hart forever. She talks to Reva and is able to figure out that Cassie is on her way back to SF, so Annie later suggests Dinah get to Cassie first. Dinah calls the train station in Chicago, pretends to be Reva, and requests them to give Cassie a message - send Tammy home on the train, but sheâs going to come pick her up herself.
Meanwhile, Hart goes to Blakeâs for help, and Ben is there. Ben, being in a festive mood, decides to help Hart find Cassie. He calls his contacts and gets an address immediately, so Hart leaves to find Cassie in Chicago. Blake and Ben then kiss at the Christmas tree and itâs clear theyâre together, but taking things slowly. Later, they have a date at Millennium and Ross/India walk in on a date, which irritates Blake because she doesnât like India from their past. Blake walks up to talk to Ross about Christmas and spending time with the boys, while India makes a phone call. The person India is talking to says she has insufficient funds, which India is arguing against and then notices that Ben overheard and he now realizes sheâs without a dime.
Michelle visits Holly and Ken and realizes Holly is delusional for expecting Fletcher to bring Meg home for Christmas. Holly is planning all this time with Meg, so Michele decides to stay a bit to ensure sheâs ok. She is offered eggnog, takes a sip and realizes there is alcohol in there. Michelle is disappointed because Holly said she had stopped drinking awhile back. Holly says sheâs still going to AA meetings and ushers her quickly out of the house, saying sheâll make sure to bring Meg by for a Christmas visit. Holly starts to hear Megâs voice yell Mommy over and over, so she takes a bottle and starts chugging. She then sees a present with a card from Fletcher that says theyâre thinking of her and theyâre sorry they will miss her for Christmas, which makes her break down. Outside the house, Michelle runs into Danny, who again seems to be following her. He gives her a gift which happens to be a picture of her in the park alone, which seems creepy, but he insists heâs trying to explore his creative side.
