The Lawson Estate; Greg &
Cheresa's Home
"Are you sure that you caught Traci listening
to our phone call? It wasn't just that she was passing by?" a concerned Dawn
asks Cheresa as they sit on the bed in Cheresa's bedroom at the Lawson estate.
Cheresa just finished telling her girlfriend about how she found her new maid
eavesdropping to their phone call the previous day. Dawn knows that Cheresa has
already indicated that she thought something was off with Traci but she can't
help but wonder if Cheresa just misunderstood the situation. "She
was standing in the hallway right at the door," Cheresa replies to her quickly.
"When I confronted her, she just said that she wanted to see if I needed
something and she didn't want to interrupt. To me, it was an acknowledgement that
she was listening to the phone call." "I guess I don't understand
why?" Dawn admits to her. "It's not like we are talking about anything
of importance?" "I don't get it either," Cheresa sighs
back to her. "I keep thinking that something is off with Traci but I can't
place it." "Do you think you should talk to Greg about this?
Maybe your Dad has also noticed something off with her?" "I
guess I could," Cheresa forces a smile on her face. "But you know what?
I don't want to talk about Traci anymore." Dawn licks her lips back
to her girlfriend. "What do you want to do then?" Cheresa leans
forward and passionately kisses her girlfriend. "I have a few ideas of what
we can do," Cheresa grins back to her as Dawn leans back and let's her head
falls to the pillow while Cheresa continues to kiss her. Outside the
closed door, Traci puts her ear up and can hear the two girls starting to make
out. She gets a sly grin on her face before she scurries away from the bedroom.
Roboto
"How long will it take you to develop the pictures
from the shoot today?" Isabelle asks Max as they stand in the studio of Roboto
as she moves a piece of her hair behind her ear. She and Max just wrapped up their
first photoshoot together for the company that recently hired them. Isabelle is
eager to see how the pictures turned out because she wants to ensure that she
did her job well as she wants to impress the higher ups at the company.
"A day, two, at most," Max grins back over to her. "You don't have
to worry about anything, Isabelle. These pictures are going to be fire! I can
tell." Isabelle chuckles back to him. "I hope you're right.
It's my first shoot here, so I want to impress Natasha and Robbie."
"Can I be honest with you?" he asks her as he sets his camera down on
the small desk in the corner. "It's my first shoot with the company too.
So, it looks like we have a lot to prove to one another." Isabelle
chuckles. "Well, I happen to see some of your work at Robertson Enterprises;
you are a very talented photographer." Max smirks back to her. "I
appreciate that compliment, Isabelle. It makes my job very easy when my subjects
are as beautiful as you." "That's the second time you've mentioned
that to me today," she reminds him, still feeling flattered by his compliments.
Max shrugs. "Then it must be true, you're beautiful."
Isabelle blushes back to him. "Shucks, thanks, Max." "Anytime,"
he winks back to her. "Maybe we could grab a drink one day?"
"Sure," Isabelle nods back to him. "I think I'd like that a lot."
The Cascade Apartments; Cassie & Max's Apartment
"I
am glad that you could get away from work for lunch today," Cassie smiles
to Jacob as they sit across from one another at the small table in the apartment
that she lives in with her children. Cassie recalls how she went to Roboto to
ask Jacob to join her and Carter for lunch and she overheard both Jacob and Max
compliment Isabelle on her beauty. She hopes that she doesn't have to do anything
drastic to keep Jacob for herself but she will if she has too. "Yea,
me too," Jacob takes a bite of his sandwich that Cassie got for him. "I
wish Carter hadn't been ready for his nap, I would have loved to have seen him."
"He's still growing so much that he sleeps a lot," Cassie tells
him. "The fact is, you're here and that's all that matters, Jacob."
"I'm glad that you came and invited me for lunch today," Jacob
admits to her. "I have to admit that I like spending time with Carter, and
of course, you too." Cassie smiles back to him. "I hope you
mean that because I meant what I said the other night, I do think that this could
be our chance to be family together. We could have that future that we talked
about when we were engaged." Jacob nervously smiles back to her
before he arches his eyebrow when he hears a knock on the door. "Are you
expecting someone else?" "No," Cassie says as she stands
up and moves to the door. Upon opening it, she sees Natasha
standing in the hallway. "Natasha, what are you doing here?"
Natasha pushes her way into the apartment and sees Jacob standing up. "I
heard that you skipped out on the photoshoot to come here for lunch," she
says looking at her son. "You were just hired, Jacob!" "Max
had it under control," Jacob defends himself to her. "I wanted to see
my son." "Funny because I don't see Carter here," Natasha
hisses back to him before she looks over at Cassie. "You are scheming again
to get my son, aren't you?" "I am doing no such thing and I'd
like you to leave!" "Fine I'll go, but Jacob, this isn't over,
you and I will have a talk about this," Natasha say as she moves to the door.
Jacob moves closer to Cassie. "I'm sorry
" At the
door, Natasha stops and sees one of Carter's pacifier's. She grabs it and puts
it in her purse before she leaves. Once she's outside, she takes a deep breath.
"It's time to find out the truth, once and for all." The
Davenport House; Trenyce & Chris' Home
Trenyce paces back and
forth in the living room of the house that she lives in with Chris and her young
son, BJ. Her mind is racing over the fact that she has been late with her period,
so early in the morning she raced to the drug store and bought a home pregnancy
test. Once Chris left the house for work, she took the test, and now she is awaiting
the results. The fact is, her mind is also racing over the fact that
she slept with Andrew the night of the Roboto gala and Chris the very next day
because she was trying to forget her affair with Andrew. "I can't
be pregnant," she whispers to herself. "This must just be just be stress.
If I am pregnant, the father could be Andrew or Chris
no, don't even say
that. I was only with Andrew once; Chris and I have sex all the time. It would
have to be Chris' child." Before she can say anything else, the
timer on her phone goes off. She shuts it off and takes a deep breath before she
moves towards the bathroom. She picks up the small stick and feels the blood drain
from her face. "I'm pregnant," she whispers as her hands starts
shaking. "I'm going to have another baby." The Pink Flamingo
at the River Rock Casino
"So, have you told Tyler that you and
I are friends?" Abby smiles over to Ethan as they sit across from one another
as they are having lunch together. Abby knows that the last time she and Ethan
had drinks together, he said that they were friends. Abby, despite being married,
can't help but have an attraction to the lawyer. She also knows that Dominick's
family hasn't been the most supportive of her. "I haven't,"
Ethan admits to her as he takes a bite of his chicken Santa Fe salad. "I
know you said Dominick's family hasn't been receptive of you and I don't think
my friendship with you is Tyler's business." "I'm sort of glad
to hear that," Abby tells him. "I would have for Tyler to ruin this
friendship we have going on here." Ethan chuckles back to her. "I
can be friends with you and Tyler. I don't have to choose between you too."
"You mean that? You want to be my friend?" "Of course,"
Ethan nods back to her. "Why would you question that?" Abby
shrugs back to him. "I guess I am just used to things going sideways in my
life," she tells him. "Even my marriage to Dominick; sometimes I feel
like I'm in a relationship with him and his entire family." Ethan
chuckles back to her. "Well, you knew what you signed up for when you married
him, didn't you?" "I did," Abby nods to him. "I guess
it's just a reality check. And, he's much older." "Does the
age bother you now? You also knew that going into the marriage," he chuckles.
"Only when I'm around attractive men my own age," she immediately
regrets saying anything to him. "Sorry, I shouldn't have said that."
"I don't mind," he winks back to her. "I saw how you were
looking at me when my shirt was wet the night of the gala. You liked what you
saw, I could tell." "I am guilty of that," Abby admits
to him. "I don't want to cross any lines with you and our, uh, friendship."
"Don't worry," Ethan winks back to her. "You're fine. A little
friendly flirtation never hurts anyone. And, for the record, I think you're just
as attractive." Abby blushes back to him as she picks up her glass
of wine and takes a sip of it. Meanwhile, at the entrance way of the restaurant,
Paige stands and sees Ethan and Abby sitting together again. She recalls how she
saw them together recently; now, here they are again. "What is going
on between Ethan and Abby?" she whispers herself. "And is this going
to hurt my grandfather?" Robertson Enterprises
"I
wish I could say that I was sorry to hear about you and Cory," Robbie tells
Leah as they stand next to one another in her office at Robertson Enterprises.
Leah just finished telling her ex-husband that Cory ended their relationship because
she rejected his marriage proposal. She is still dealing with the breakup, along
with the other secrets she is trying to uncover about herself. "But after
the way he and Natasha ended their marriage, I always thought you could do better."
Leah forces a smile on her face as she pours two vodka sodas at the bar.
She passes one to Robbie. "The fact is, I have so many other things on the
go, I don't even find myself that upset. I mean, I was when he first ended things,
but I guess that tells you about how the status of our relationship. I will always
cherish our time together and Cory supported me a lot, but I guess we were never
meant to be." "With Frederick back, have you gotten any more
information from him?" "He agreed to a DNA test with me to
see if I am his daughter but he claims he doesn't need one to know the truth,"
she reveals to him. "He was so confident that I think he's telling the truth."
Robbie pulls her into a hug and holds her tightly. "I'm sorry Leah,"
he whispers to her. "I can't imagine what you're going through with this.
If you need anything..." "Thanks," Leah smiles back to
him as they exit their embrace. "So, what brings you by? Not that I'm complaining,
it's always nice to see you." "I wish I could say this was
just a social call but I was hoping to ask a favor from you." Leah
arches her eyebrow back to Robbie. "A favor? Now I'm intrigued. How can I
help?" "Well," Robbie grins back to her. "Tyler has
hit Roboto with a lawsuit. If Robertson Enterprises wins, it could really damage
Roboto, maybe forever. I was hoping you could talk to your brother about dropping
the lawsuit?" Leah takes a deep breath. "I can try Robbie,"
she nods to him. "But I can't make any promises. Tyler wants you and Roboto
to pay. I am not sure that I can convince him to drop this lawsuit."
"If anyone can get through to Tyler, it's you, Leah. All I'm asking
is that you try." The Richardson Estate; Meggan, Lukas, Donovan,
Logan & Olly's Home
"How was your visit with Victoria at
Eva's grave?" Lukas asks Donovan as he pours himself a brandy from the bar
in the lavish living room of the Richardson estate. Lukas knows that his husband
went to visit his mother earlier and is curious as to how it went. Besides, he
wants to start their conversation off on a good note before he asks him the more
difficult questions after his ran into Jasper on the pier. "Oh it
was fine," Donovan says as he sits in his wheelchair, as he knows no one
knows that he can walk again. "Victoria and I realized that we will never
get over Eva's death, we just have to learn how to cope." "Yea,
it is a journey," he nods back to his husband. "Meg and I went through
something similar when we thought Frederick was dead." "I don't
think my mother will come back though," Donovan admits to him. "Not
after she was stabbed so many times by Brooke Lawson." "I didn't
mean that way
" Lukas tells him. "Are we alone?"
"Yea, Meggan is out with the boys. Why?" "We have to talk,"
Lukas looks at him with intent. "I ran into Jasper on the pier when I was
on my walk earlier. He told me he quit working here and that you would know why.
So, Donovan, why did Jasper quit working here and when were you going to tell
me?" Donovan gulps back to him before he looks at his husband. "I'm
glad you asked, Lukas. Because, you won't believe what I'm about to tell you."
Dominick's Townhouse
"Helen what a nice surprise,"
Dominick says as he opens the front door of his townhouse and sees Helen standing
on the otherwise. The last person he ever expected to see was Helen. "What
brings you by?" "Do you mind if I come in?" Helen asks
him, as Dominick moves aside to let her into the home. "I recently got back
from a vacation." "A much needed getaway? I hope you had a
nice time." "I did, thank you," Helen smiles back to him
as they move into the living room of the townhouse. "Once I got back, I happen
to have a run in with Felicia." "Ah," Dominick uneasily
nods back to her. "You're still concerned about the fact that she is claiming
to have see your mother, Barbara, alive?" Helen nods back to him.
"I told Felicia that it was impossible for Barbara to be alive," she
explains to Dominick. "And, she seemingly agreed with me. That is, until
"
"Until?" Dominick asks her in confusion. "Until what?"
"She claimed she saw Barbara again," Helen reveals to him. "She
said she saw my mother at her gravesite, Dominick. I'm worried that Felicia is
seeing things. I'm not sure what the answer is, but I thought you should know
that she has claimed to have seen my mother again." "I see,"
Dominick arches his eyebrow. "I appreciate you telling me this Helen. I have
to get to the bottom of this." Helen nods back to him. "If
I can help with anything, let me know. I want to understand this too."
The Park
Felicia looks down at her watch and realizes that
she's been sitting on the park bench for hours. She slowly stands up and recalls
how she ran into Helen earlier, who told her it was impossible that Barbara was
alive. While Felicia knows that this is true, she can't explain, then, why she
has see her friend twice now. "Maybe I just need a good night's
sleep," she whispers to herself as she picks up her purse and is about to
move away when someone approaches her. She looks up and gasps at the sight of
"Barbara" again. "Barbara!" "Hello friend,"
Eva replies, as she wears the mask that Frederick created for her. "It's
been too long since we've seen one another. How are you?" Felicia
feels her eyes swell with water. "This can't be happening. It can't be!"
"I keep telling you that it is true," Eva reaches out and grabs
Felicia's hand. "I'm here, Felicia. No matter what anyone else tells you,
you have to realize that when we touch, it is reality." "I
I
just can't explain this!" "I told you," Eva replies to
her. "Frederick saved me, Felicia. He saved my life. He's a good man, Felicia.
He saved me. Won't you please, please, tell me that you will go to him and thank
him for saving me? As my friend, just do this for me?" Adam's
Townhouse
"Please, Robin," Adam pleads with her as they
continue to stand in the living room of his townhouse. "Tell me, am I the
father of your baby? Are we going to be parents together?" Robin
feels water swell in her eyes as she puts her hand on her stomach before she locks
eyes on Adam. "Adam, you have to understand
" "No,"
Adam shakes his head, realizing what she is about to say. "No! This can't
be happening again, Robin!" "I'm sorry," she pleads with
him as a tear falls down her cheek. "I don't know what to say, this just
happened?"
"So, Shane is going to father another one of your children? That's just
fan-fucking-tastic!" Adam rolls his eyes back to her. "Adam
please
"
"No," he cuts her off with his booming voice. "No! This is
over, Robin! I told you, if Shane is the father, we are done. I can't deal with
this! I can't go through this again! I won't go through this again."
"Please, you don't mean that, Adam. We can make this work," Robin
says another as another tear falls down her cheek. "I want you to
leave," Adam informs her. "And Robin, I don't think I can see you again.
Whatever the fuck we had, whatever this fucked up relationship was, it is over!
I hope you and Shane are very, very happy together." Another tear
falls down Robin's cheek as she slowly nods back to him. She moves towards the
door but turns back around before she leaves. "I did
No, I do love you,
Adam. That was never in question." Adam puts his hand over his mouth
as a tear falls down his own cheek as he hears the door close. He knows the door
closing is a metaphor of his relationship with Robin because he can never go back
to loving her the way he has for so many years. Now, he just has to figure out
how to move on without her. "Damn it," he whispers to himself
as another tear falls down his cheek. "Damn it straight to hell!"
