Theme song: "Lose You" Sam Smith Previously
on One Day at a Time - Max announced that he wanted to have custody of
Olly/Sonny - Louie revealed to Natasha that Shane's real name is Derek, that
he is Derek's father, and that Shane killed his mother, which is why he created
a new life for himself - Clayton revealed to Nicholas that he knew he and Andy
were getting married - The Robertson's learned that Felicia was alive and married
to Dominick The Victors Mansion "How is Felicia?"
Bryce asks Frederick, who reappears from the tunnels. Earlier in the evening,
the Robertson's arrived at the mansion and Frederick, Bryce and Felicia revealed
themselves to the family, who were shocked to see that Frederick and Felicia were
alive. What further surprised them is when Frederick announced that Bryce married
him and Felicia. Thankfully, when Dominick asked Felicia if she was happy, she
said she was. "She's resting," Frederick replies to him as he
moves to the bar and pours two drinks before he passes one to Bryce. "Thank
you, by the way. Your support earlier when Dominick and his crew were here was
much appreciated." Bryce takes a sip of his scotch before he looks
back at his grandfather. "They were surprised to hear about you and Felicia
getting married. I am sure that I will be an outcast for some time moving forward."
Frederick shrugs back to him. "I don't care what they think," he
admits to Bryce. "You have been loyal to me and that is what I care about.
I won't forget everything you've done to help me, Bryce." "You've
done a lot for me as well," Bryce tells him. "I hate to say this, but
we are good team." Frederick chuckles back to him as he raises his
glass to him. "Yes, we certainly are, I'll drink to that," he says as
he takes a sip of his scotch. "But we have to brace ourselves, Bryce. Because
knowing Dominick, he's going to do whatever he can to get Felicia away from me.
We need to prepare for a battle, one that we will win, mark my words." | |

One Day House
Nicholas
uneasily gulps back to Clayton as they stand facing one another in Nicholas' office
at the One Day House. Clayton arrived a short time ago and revealed to Nicholas
that he knew that he and Andy were planning their wedding; Clayton, then, suggested
that they speak before Nicholas married another man. Nicholas' marriage to Clayton
was brief, and a long time ago, so he is left wondering what Clayton wants to
talk about now, especially since they agreed to try to move on from their sorted
past together. "You, uh, want to talk to me about marrying Andy?"
Nicholas asks him breaking the awkward silence between them. "What do you
want to talk about?" "Isn't that obvious?" Clayton asks
him slyly back. "You, Andy and me, we've been through a lot together. We've
had the highest of highs and the lowest of lows." Nicholas nervously
chuckles back to him. "You can say that again. But seriously, I'm all ears.
What do you want to discuss with me?" "Honestly?" Clayton
locks eyes with Nicholas. "Just that I am happy for you, Nicholas. I'm happy
for both of you." Nicholas looks back at him in surprise as this
was the last thing he expected to hear from Clayton. "I
I don't know
what to say." "You weren't expecting that, were you?" Clayton
chuckles to him as Nicholas shrugs back to him. "I don't blame you; like
I said, we've all been through a lot together. But thinking about it now, it's
great that two men are in love and want to get married. I hope I find that one
day; I know it won't be with you or Andy, and I am really, genuinely, happy for
both of you." "I appreciate that Clayton," Nicholas smiles
back to him. "I really do, and who knows, maybe, one day, we can all call
each other friends?" "I'd like that a lot," Clayton smiles
in return. Detroit International Airport
Natasha sits in
the airport lounge with a glass of white wine in front of her as she waits for
her flight back to Twin Peaks. Her mind is racing over the fact that she returned
to the Rainer family home to talk to the man that had previously pushed her away.
When she met with the man, whose name is Louie, he revealed that he Shane's real
name is Derek Rainer and he knew this because he is Derek's father. As if this
wasn't shocking enough for Natasha, Louie then revealed that the reason that Shane
created an whole new identity is because he killed his mother! Natasha
thanked Louie for talking to her and, then, quickly exited as she felt like she
needed air to breathe. She has no idea what to make of anything Louie told her,
but she knows that she wants to get back home, see Shane, and try to figure out
if any of this could possibly be true. "Is it possible," she
whispers to herself. "That all these years of knowing, and loving, Shane,
he could have been lying to me, to everyone, about his entire life?"
She takes a sip of her white wine as her mind continues to come to terms with
what Louie told her. "This can't be real," she shakes her head to herself.
"Shane couldn't have created a new identity because he killed his mother,
could he?" She sighs heavily. "God, what can of worms have I
opened by pursuing this? And if it's true, can I really marry a man that killed
his mother? Could I live with a man that took another life?" Before
she can say anything else, she hears the call for her flight to start to board.
She, immediately, feels her heart start to race at the thought of seeing Shane
again. "I'm coming home, and I'm going to get some answers," she tells
herself as she finishes her wine and then stands up to head to her gate. Twin
Peaks Law Courts
After the Judge allowed Max to enter the custody case,
he called a recess so everyone could get their barrings together. In the foyer,
Donovan and Lukas stand next to one another and look over at Josh Levitt with
intent as they are rattled that another person is, now, trying to get custody
of Olly. While they were, at first, thrilled that Abby revealed that Max, not
Andrew, was the biological father, they are currently wondering if this revelation
will actually cost them their son. "How could the Judge allow Max
to sue for custody of Olly?" Donovan asks Josh, hoping that he will get some
answers. "Max has never even met Olly! How can he have any rights here?"
"Donovan is right," Lukas hisses. "This is outrageous. I mean,
what's next? Miss Piggy trying to get custody?" "I know you
two are upset by this," Josh tries to calm the situation down. "But
I thought this would happen." "How could have seen this coming?"
Lukas asks him. "It just makes sense," Josh replies to them.
"Think about it; you find out you have a kid that you never knew you had,
what is the one thing you'd want? You'd want to be around the kid as much as possible
to make up for lost time. The fact of the matter is, however, you two are still
the only parents that Olly has ever known. Max, he's a stranger to Olly, and that
will hurt his case for custody." "I hope you're right,"
Donovan shakes his head back in disgust. "Because this feels like another
punch in the gut." "I need both of you to stay calm when we
go back into the court room," Josh advises them. "We still have the
strongest case out of everyone, but if you have any outbursts, it will hurt our
case, not help it." "We will do our best," Donovan uneasily
tells his lawyer. "But Josh, you better not let us lose Olly; we can't lose
our son; we won't lose our son, and that's final." ***
Meanwhile,
inside the courtroom, Max slowly moves up to Abby, who is still resting in her
wheelchair at her table. She is alone as Ethan stepped out to use the restroom,
and Lois had to take a phone call, which left Max alone. He looks at the woman
he used to think of as a friend and almost can't believe that it is the same woman;
he hates that she has lied to him for years about being a father. Abby
looks up at Max and gulps heavily, as she can tell that he is not happy with her.
"Max
I
I can't believe your announcement. You want custody of my
son?" "Our son," Max corrects her as he glares at her.
"And yes, I do; you've stolen years from me with him, don't you think that
I deserve a chance to get to know Sonny? Or Olly?" "His name
is Sonny," Abby shakes her head back to him. "And, listen, I am so sorry
about what has happened. I
I tried to explain to you the day in the hospital."
"I know, I know," Max huffs back to her. "You wanted to be
with Andrew at the time, so you lied thinking that if he was the father of your
son, he would be with you. But how did that turn out Abby? Andrew never wanted
anything to do you with you!" "I know!" she feels water
swell in her eyes. "I know that I fucked this up, okay? But in my defense
"
"Oh, I'd love to hear this. What kind of defense do you have?"
Abby takes a deep breath and then locks eyes with him. "I was going to
say," she whispers back to him. "After I gave birth, I was told that
Sonny was dead; I
I didn't see the point in telling you, or anyone, that
you were Sonny's father; I mean, I had no idea that he was alive; I
I just
let the secret die with my baby." "Only he didn't die!"
Max tells her. "Look Abby, you can try to justify this all you want, but
what you did is incomprehensible! And that's why I want custody of Sonny! I won't
go another day without my son." "And what about me?" Abby
asks him as a tear falls down her cheek. "I lost all this time with my son
too! I don't want to lose anymore time with him!" "You should
have thought about that before you lied to everyone," Max shakes his head
back to her. "Because from where I stand, you're not fit to raise a child,
and if I am honest, I pity Georgina for having you as a mother." "Max!"
Abby cries back to him. "Please, don't let this come between us!"
"It's too late for that," Max glares back at her. "Any friendship
we had, it's over Abby. And this is my warning: I will get custody of Sonny, and
I will keep him as far away from you as possible." Next on One
Day at a Time - Logan and Sophie deal with their actions - Tyler makes
a bold move - Simona gets a lead on Chantel | |
