The Sugarbowl

"I actually don't know what to say," Andy admits to Madeline and Robbie as he sits across from them in the back booth of the coffeehouse. Madeline just finished informing her brother in law that she and Robbie eloped and they have decided to put a wedding announcement out in the Twin Peaks Sun. Andy was not expecting to hear that Madeline and Robbie are married, especially since he knows that she just broke up with Will and Robbie's divorce from Kim, Andy's sister, is still very fresh. "This marriage…are you sure this is what you want?"

Madeline smiles back to him before she looks at Robbie and nods. "Robbie and I, we weren't, exactly, planning this wedding, but we have decided to give the marriage a shot. And we want everyone to know about it. So, please, can you tell me that you will put the wedding announcement in the Sun?"

"Of course I will," Andy replies to her. "I'll put a post on the website now and the full story will be in the evening edition."

"Thanks Andy, we really appreciate that," Robbie smiles over to his former brother in law. "We just want everyone to know so we don't have to make any announcements."

"That makes sense," Andy tells him. "Like I said, I'll post it right away."

The Pink Flamingo at the River Rock Casino

Clayton sits at the bar of the restaurant with a coffee in front of him as his mind thinks about how both Andy and Nicholas have told him that they will be married despite Clayton revealing that he still has feelings for Nicholas. He knows that he had hoped to get back together with Nicholas when he returned to town, but now, that doesn't seem like it will happen.

"I don't know what I have to do but I will get you back Nicholas," he whispers to himself as he takes a sip of his coffee. "The question is when will I drop my bombshell? When will I tell you that will leave Andy and come back to me?"

Before he can say anything else to himself, he hears a chime on his IPhone, so he grabs it from his pocket. He opens his mouth in shock as he sees the announcement from the Twin Peaks Sun appear on his screen: "Robbie Calimo marries Madeline Wilkins; former CEO of Roboto is no longer an eligible bachelor."

"What the fuck?" he asks himself in surprise. "Maddie got married? To Robbie? What is going on?"

***

At another table, Kim and Greg sit across from each other as they are having breakfast together. Kim looks over at her fiance before she takes a sip of her orange juice.

"So, what is on your agenda today?" Kim asks him before she puts her juice down.

"Busy day at the hospital," he replies to her quickly. "And I need to meet with Cheresa to see how she is feeling about Traci."

Kim arches her eyebrow back to him. "Are you still concerned with Traci snooping around the mansion?"

"I am not, no," Greg admits to her. "She really helped me put together the night that I proposed to you; I don't think that she would have done that if she had an ulterior motive."

"That's good, but I think you're right, it would be good to check in with Cheresa."

Before Greg can respond, they both hear a chime on their phones. Kim grabs her phone and looks at the screen in shock. "My God…"

"What is it?" Greg asks her quickly.

"Look at this," Kim shows him the screen of her phone.

"Robbie married Madeline Wilkins?" Greg asks her in surprise. "I didn't know he was even seeing someone…?"

"Neither did I," she admits to him. "I guess he's really moving on..."

"How are you feeling about this?"

Kim forces a smile on her face as she looks back to him. "I'm fine," she tells him as she takes a deep breath. "You and I are engaged and he is married. Our marriage is over, so it's fine. Just fine."

***

Antonio emerges from his office at the casino and looks around and is pleased to see how many people are already gambling since it is rather early in the morning. He happens to see Andrew sitting at the blackjack table, which forces a smile on his face. He knows that he gave Andrew a loan so he could continue to play blackjack, so seeing him back makes him happy.

"Antonio," Robin says with a smile on her face as she moves up to him. "Good morning."

"Robin," Antonio looks back at her, still keeping the smile on his face. "You look beautiful this morning, and before you say anything, I know that you said we can just be friends but I can still say that you're stunning."

Robin blushes back to him. "You're so sweet," she tells him. "And I know that I told you that it wasn't because of Cory, but if I am honest, I think that I might have feelings for him again. It's not that I haven't enjoyed our time together…it's just, Cory and I, we have history."

Antonio uneasily nods back to him. "Well I appreciate you telling me that," he replies to her. "I will respect your decision but if you ever leave him, I'd be happy to pick up the pieces."

"You're too kind," she says. "Have a great day, okay?"

"You too," Antonio tells her as he waves back to her. He takes a deep breath as he realizes that he might have lost his chance to be with Robin; he hates that she still has feelings for Cory and he immediately starts wondering if he should try to remove Cory from the situation. Before he can think of anything else, though, he notices Andrew walking away from the blackjack table.

"Andrew, morning," he says moving up to the younger man. "I'm glad to see you back at the table."

Andrew gulps heavily back to him. "Ugh, yea, thanks," he tells him. "I didn't have the best morning, to be honest. I lost almost all the money that I borrowed from you."

"There's always more where that came from…" Antonio informs him quickly.

Andrew shakes his head back to him. "I can't…" he tells the casino owner. "How the hell am I going to pay back the first loan, yet another a second one? I appreciate the offer, but I can't take any more money from you, I just can't."

The Lawson Estate; Greg & Cheresa's Home

Trenyce slowly moves up to the front door of the Lawson estate and prepares to ring the doorbell. She can't help but recall how she was having breakfast with Chris and he revealed that their daughter told him not to marry Trenyce; Trenyce has no idea why Cheresa is suddenly giving her the cold shoulder but she has to figure it out because she doesn't want to be in a bad place with Cheresa again.

"Okay," Trenyce whispers to herself. "Time to find out what is going on with you, Cheresa." She pushes the doorbell and waits for the door to open. Within a few second, Traci is opening the door and greeting Trenyce, who moves into the foyer.

"I will let Cheresa know you're here," Traci tells Trenyce before she leaves the foyer and moves into the living room.

Cheresa quickly walks into the foyer. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Trenyce looks back at her daughter with an arched eyebrow. "I wanted to see you," she tells her daughter. "I…I don't know what's happened that you're so upset with me, Cheresa, but I don't like it, not one bit."

"I don't care what you like or don't like," Cheresa snaps back at her, still furious with Trenyce as she overheard her mother reveal that she slept with Andrew. Cheresa has been keeping quiet with the fact that she saw her mother kiss Andrew because they both claimed that nothing else was happening between them; now she knows that it was a lie. "I don't owe you any explanations, Trenyce."

"What's happened Cheresa?" Trenyce asks her quickly. "Why are you so full of anger towards me?"

"I told you, I don't know you anything," Cheresa replies to her. "I just want you to leave me the hell alone, Trenyce. I want you out of my life, forever!"

The Richardson Estate; Meggan, Lukas, Donovan, Logan & Olly's Home

"Alright, I just had some of my men finish their searching of the property," Simona announces to Lukas, Donovan and Meggan as she moves back into the living room of the Richardson mansion. The three of them immediately look back at the detective, all with worried looks on their faces. "There is no sign of Olly anywhere."

Donovan sighs heavily before he looks back at Lukas and Meggan, who exit from a hug. "What is your next step in finding my son?" he asks her quickly. "We have to find him!"

"I've been in touch with the officials at the airport and bus terminal," Simona tells them. "Anyone with a child will be questioned to see if the child is Olly or not; who ever took Olly will not be able to leave Twin Peaks."

"What if they are already out of the city?" Lukas asks her quickly. "What if Olly is already out of the country?"

"We can't think the worst," Meggan tells her brother. "We have to focus on finding out who could have done this?"

"My sister Victoria is also missing," Donovan looks over at Simona. "What if Victoria and Olly are together? What if someone is trying to hurt my family?"

"I heard from Bryce Barty," Simona reveals to him. "He asked me to start looking into Victoria's disappearance as well. That's a good idea, though, they might be connected. The piece is that we would need to figure out who would do this? Can you think of anyone that would want to hurt you by kidnapping your sister and son?"

"I do," Donovan nods back to her before he looks at Lukas. "Our former nanny, Jasper; I think he took our son."

Dominick's Townhouse

"Don't be too hard on yourself," Abby tells Dominick as they move into the main bedroom of the townhouse that they live in together. The married couple have just returned home from the hospital, where Bryce had put Dominick under hypnosis in hopes of him remembering the events leading up to Felicia and Frederick's wedding. Abby was worried that Dominick would remember that Eva is alive, which would mean that their marriage is invalid; she is feeling grateful that he didn't remember anything, likely because she has been drugging him to prevent his memories from returning. "It was only your first session; you might remember something else if you go under hypnosis again?"

"I hope you're right," Dominick turns and smiles to her. "Thank you, by the way."

"For what, Dominick?"

"For supporting me," Dominick tells his wife. "I couldn't have done this without you next to me."

Abby smiles back to him. "Of course," she nods to him. "I wouldn't have been anywhere else. You look tired though."

"I am tired," Dominick admits to her. "The hypnosis session took a lot out of me."

"Why don't you try to get some rest?" Abby suggests to him. "I think Ethan is coming over to discuss the restraining order. I'll get the updates and tell you when you wake up."

"Alright, that sounds like a good idea. See you in a couple of hours."

Abby shuts the door when she leaves the bedroom and moves to the stairs to go back to the living room. She moves into the living room and sees Ethan standing there at the bar, pouring himself a drink.

"Ethan," Abby says in surprise. "I didn't think you were here already."

"I let myself in, I hope that's okay?"

"More than okay," Abby nods back to him. "I'm glad you're here, it's been a hell of a morning already."

"Here have this drink then," he tells her as he passes her the scotch. "If I can do anything else, you know I'm here for you."

"You mean that don't you?" Abby asks him as she moves up to him and their eyes lock.

"Of course I do," he licks his lips back to her. "Why? What else do you need?"

Abby leans up and kisses him passionately on the lips. They part for a moment before he leans in and kisses her again.

Raven's Meadow

"Was that the police that you were just speaking too?" Frederick asks Bryce, who is putting his phone away. The doctor knows that Bryce could ruin more of his plans by talking to the police, so he hopes won't have to take matters into his own hands.

"It was," Bryce looks back at him. "Victoria is still missing and I am getting worried about her. I need to find my wife."

Frederick gulps heavily back to him as he knows that Victoria, and Eva, are in the hospital in a padded cell. He doesn't know what he is going to do with them just yet but he has to ensure that they stay hidden because no one can know that Eva is alive; if anyone learns that, he knows that everyone will realize that Felicia has been telling the truth about Barbara and he can't let that happen.

"I hope you're able to track her down," Frederick lies to her. "How is Felicia doing? I still can't believe that Dominick got that damn restraining order against me!"

"She's doing just fine," Bryce replies to him quickly. "Will and I are giving her the medication that you want her to be on. So, everything is going accordingly to your plan."

"Good, keep it that way," Frederick says back to him. "And keep an eye on Will; He just started here and I have to ensure he can be trustworthy."

"He seems like a good nurse," Bryce informs him. "But I will keep an eye on him. And in the meantime, I have to put my energy into finding Victoria. I won't rest until I have my wife back."

Roboto

"Have you heard anything more on Natasha's status?" Isabelle asks Max as they stand together in the main office of Roboto. Isabelle hopes that her boss, the woman that hired her to be a model at the company, is able to make a recovery, despite the fact that everyone has been told that this blood disease that Natasha has will likely kill her.

"I haven't heard anything more," Max replies to her quickly. "It's just a shitty situation; Natasha isn't that old, and to know that she isn't going to make it…"

"My heart goes out to her and the entire family," Isabelle whispers back to him. "I can't imagine what they are going through."

"Are you thinking about Jacob?"

Isabelle nods back to him. "Isabelle, Sophie, Robbie, Kim…everyone," she tells him quickly. "It's not just Jacob."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to go there if you didn't want me too…"

"It's fine," Isabelle forces a smile on her face. "And for the record, I am sorry, Max. I never meant to lead you on."

Before Max can respond, the office door opens and Sophie emerges. "Hello," she says interrupting Max and Isabelle's conversation. "I'm Sophie, Natasha's daughter."

"Sophie, nice to meet you," Max moves up to her and shakes her hand. "Max Black, and this is Isabelle Moretti."

"You're even more beautiful in person," Sophie smiles back to the model.

"You're kind," Isabelle replies to her. "What brings you by? Has something happened with your Mom?"

"She went home today," Sophie reveals to them. "Which is nice because I don't know how much more hospital coffee I could handle."

Max chuckles back to her. "We hope that your mom gets better."

Sophie feels her eyes swell with water. "Thanks me too," she tells them. "And I'm hoping that she will let me help out around here. The best way that I can honor my mother is to be a part of the family company."

The Cascade Apartments; Cassie, Max & Carter's Home

Jacob can hear Cassie telling him about the latest cute activity that Carter is interested in while he sits on the sofa in her apartment. While he is trying to focus on her, his mind is actually on the last time he saw Natasha, when she asked him to be with Isabelle. Knowing that his mother is dying is a hard pill to swallow for him, but the fact that she asked him to be a couple with Isabelle before she dies has left him reeling, especially because he and Cassie have been trying to be a family with Carter.

He wonders what he should do; he and Isabelle have had chemistry and have flirted since she came to town, but she has also been dating Max while Jacob has been with Cassie. But, at the end of the day, Natasha is dying, so if he could make her happy before she goes, Jacob feels like that should be his goal.

"What am I going to do?" he asks himself in a whisper.

"What was that?" Cassie asks him as she turns to face him. "Did you say something?"

Jacob shakes his head back to her. "No, sorry," he lies to her. "I was just listening to you tell me about Carter."

"Alright," Cassie arches her eyebrow back to him. "Hey, are you okay?"

"Yea, I'm fine," Jacob forces a smile on his face. "I'm just thinking about how lucky we are to have Carter; he really is a blessing."

"That he is," Cassie smiles back to him. "And I'm glad that we are trying to be a family, Jacob. I…I don't remember ever being this happy."

Jacob smiles back to her as Cassie leans over and kisses him on the lips. "And I owe all of that to you," she whispers to him as their lips part for a moment, as Jacob's mind continues to race about Natasha's request.

The Calimo Mansion

"Are you comfortable?" Shane asks Natasha as he moves into her bedroom at the Calimo mansion. He sees his ex-wife laying in her large king size bed. He was able to bring her home from the hospital so she could spend the rest of her days at home instead of the small room at Twin Peaks General Hospital.

"Yea, I am fine," Natasha looks back at him. "Are we alone?"

Shane nods back to her. "Jacob is with Cassie and Sophie went to Roboto," he reveals to her. "Did you talk to Jacob the way we discussed?"

"I did," Natasha replies to him quickly. "I asked him to be with Isabelle before I go."

"How did he take that?"

Natasha shrugs back to him. "I'm not sure. I think I made it clear that I wanted to see him with Isabelle before I go; the rest is up to him."

"I hope this works, Natasha," Shane reveals to her. "I still can't believe that you came up with this plan."

Natasha chuckles back to him. "You mean to fake dying to get Jacob to be with Isabelle?" she asks him. "I guess I've been around Cassie long enough to realize that she isn't the only one that can be sly. Now, all we have to do is ensure no one realizes that I'm perfectly fine and once Jacob is married to Isabelle, I can have a miraculous recovery."

"And by then, Cassie will be out of Jacob's life for good," Shane smirks back to her. "It is a good idea."

"I think so," Natasha nods back to him. "And no one will ever find out what we've done. But we have to do this Shane, we have to ensure Jacob stays far away from Cassie, forever."
