So was it Virginia Browne, not Marland, that made Quint, Henry's son? I thought the Sean Ryan reveal about Quint meant that he was Stephanie Ryan's son, thus making him Henry's son, and Vanessa's half brother.

[DRW50]

I forgot to say thanks for keeping these updated.

AW - who was Cathy Harris? They clearly put her name out there for a reason.

GL - Maureen's fiance, he wasn't around long was he? Was that a dropped story?

Doctors - I'm surprised they were giving Erich a story so close to the end of the show.

RH - I guess this was what they used to get rid of the Crystal Palace?

Y&R - Wow, I didn't know the Paul mob story took up so much of the show. I also didn't realize just how much Katharine infantilized and controlled Nikki at that time. To lie to her about the baby's paternity. I'm shocked.
