The Robertson House; Leah & Paige's Home

"Are you feeling better?" Jeff asks Leah as he holds her while they lay on the sofa together in the living room of the house that they shared for the years that they were married while another lightning bolt flashes across the sky. He showed up to comfort his ex-wife after she called him and told him that Cory had died; when he arrived, Leah asked him to hold her, which he is now doing.

"I am, thanks for doing this," Leah tells him. "I guess I just needed to feel some arms around me."

"It is understandable," Jeff replies to her. "You are going through something traumatic, it's reasonable that you'd want to feel comfort."

Leah reaches over and grabs her phone, which is resting on the coffee table. "Oh man, I've missed some calls," she sighs back to him as more thunder booms outside, as the rainstorm continues. "It looks like Natasha is throwing a small memorial service at the Calimo mansion. I should get going; I don't want to miss it."

"Alright, do you want me to go with you?"

"No, it's fine," Leah turns and looks at her ex-husband. "Thanks again for holding me, Jeff. I know after what just happened with us it might have been awkward, but I needed it."

"Happy to help," Jeff tells her as they stand up and move towards the door. The front door opens and Jeff pulls Leah into a hug. "Let me know if you need more support, I'm here for you."

Outside, a car pulls up to the front door and Lukas looks at the entry way of the house. He wanted to come and see Jeff because Meggan just told him that he proposed to her but she didn't get the chance to respond because Jeff learned of Cory's death. Lukas wanted to come tell Jeff that he needs to give Meggan the chance to respond to the proposal.

Just then, however, Jeff pulls Leah into a deep hug, which Lukas can see from his car. Lukas sighs and shakes his head to himself.

"This always happens with you Jeff," Lukas whispers to himself before he takes off, leaving the house before he has the chance to talk to Leah or Jeff.

The Young Estate, Boston; Melissa & Phil's House

"I am listening Mom," Nicholas looks back at his mother as they continue to stand facing each other in the living room of Melissa's mansion in Boston. He arrived in Boston to confront his mother about why her name was on Clayton's recent phone calls on his telephone; when she refused, he told her that he was going to walk out of her life forever, so Melissa has finally agreed to tell him her connection to Clayton. "What is this piece of information that will change things forever between Clayton, Andy and I?"

Melissa sighs back to him before she takes a sip of her wine. "You promise me that you will understand what I did? I only wanted you to be happy and I have never believed that Andy was the man for you."

"I know but that's also not your call to make," Nicholas reminds her. "I love Andy and I want to be with him. The problem is that I am married to Clayton and I need to find a way to get out of the marriage!"

"I know that's how you feel, Nicholas," Melissa says. "But are you sure that you can't make this union with Clayton work? You two make a very handsome couple."

"But I don't love him!" Nicholas pleads with her. "I love Andy; without love, there's no point in having a marriage."

"You don't think you could learn to love Clayton?"

"He blackmailed me into marriage," Nicholas chuckles back to her. "I don't think there's any way that I could love him. Now, tell me what you were going to tell me. Don't beat around the bush anymore!"

"Fine, fine, fine!" Melissa says back to him. "The thing is," she looks back at him. "Clayton isn't who he claims to be. He's been lying to everyone this entire time."

Nicholas arches his eyebrow back to her. "He's not who he claims to be? What does that mean? Who is he then?"

"I've said too much…"

"No, tell me everything Mom," Nicholas demands back to her. "Tell me what you know about Clayton!"

Raven's Meadow

"How could you be so stupid and end the restraining order?" Tyler huffs into his phone as he talks to Abby, while he stands in the hallway of Raven's Meadow just outside of Felicia's room. Earlier in the evening, Tyler was stunned when Frederick revealed that Abby revoked the restraining order that Dominick had in place to ensure he couldn't treat Felicia while she was in the hospital. Tyler had hoped that Bryce would be Felicia's doctor, but now anything is possible.

"Listen, I just want to do what's right," Abby tells him as she stands in the living room of her townhouse. "We can discuss this further, but from my standpoint, Frederick is a good doctor that can help Felicia!"

"You're damn right we will talk about this," Tyler grits his teeth back to her. "You won't get away with this!"

He hangs up the phone and looks over at Frederick, who reappears in the hallway. "You're still here?" Frederick asks him. "I thought you had left, since you have to drive home in this rain."

"I'm not leaving here without my mother," Tyler warns him as she moves closer to him. "There's no way in hell that I'm letting you be my mother's doctor again."

Frederick chuckles back to him as another loud thunderclap can be heard outside. "I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about that," the doctor tells him. "Felicia is in my hospital, under my care. I will see to it that she has the best possible medical attention. And before you even say anything, you can't take Felicia out of the hospital until I've discharged her. She remains a risk to herself and others."

"You won't get away with this," Tyler grits his teeth back to Felicia as another loud thunder boom echoes outside. "I will see to it that I put an end to this!"

The Calimo Cabin

"This is some storm we are having," Will looks over at Eva as they continue to sit in front of the fire in the living room of the Calimo cabin. Will is still stunned that he is sitting next to the woman that he loves; for so long, he thought that Eva was dead, so the fact that she is with him is almost surreal.

"It is, but it makes the fire nice to sit next too," Eva purses her lips together. "And, it is nice for us to have the chance to catch up. For so many months, I was trapped in the Victors mansion with no memory of my loved ones."

"Does that mean that you love me?" Will asks her as they lock eyes. "Because Eva, I never stopped caring about you. I thought you about every day. Hell, I was even having dreams about you calling out for me."

Eva looks back at in him surprise. "You were dreaming about me?"

"I was," Will nods back to her. "After you died, I got involved with Madeline Wilkins but she was upset because I kept dreaming about you. I couldn't get you out of my head or heart."

"Oh Will," Eva reaches over and grabs his hand. "I am grateful for your love and support. I have no idea what my future holds but one thing will remain, I will cherish you being in my life."

***

"Vic, come on," Bryce pleads with his wife as they stand in the kitchen of the cabin, still putting together dinner for everyone. He knows that Victoria has been giving him the cold shoulder because he has been working with Frederick; he can understand why Victoria is upset but the last thing that he wants is to be having difficulties with his wife. "You have to understand why I was working with Frederick."

"In case you forgotten," Victoria puts the knife down and looks over at Bryce. "Frederick tried to kill me last year! And then, he was holding my mother hostage for months as he was using her to pretend to be Barbara Mills, all the while telling her that he would help her regain her memory if she did so. When I figured out the truth, he held us hostage in a padded cell at Raven's Meadow! So, I don't care what reason you have, the fact that you were helping that monster is unforgiveable!"

"You don't understand," Bryce sighs back to her. "Frederick; he was, well, he was blackmailing me into helping him. I never meant to hurt anyone, especially you."

"Blackmailing you?" Victoria looks back at in surprise. "What does he have on you? What could you have done that is so bad that you would help Frederick?"

"It was horrible," Bryce admits to her. "It all started with Vinny; he was blackmailing me with the fact that Frederick was alive; Frederick didn't want anyone to know he was alive until he was ready to reveal himself. And you remember Vinny, he was a bastard."

"How could I forget?" Victoria asks him quickly. "He was the one that made me think I split again; he's the entire reason I committed myself to Raven's Meadow last year!"

"Well, Vinny, he made me do some horrible things," Bryce tells her. "I…I felt like I had no choice. Please tell me you believe me, Victoria. I never wanted to hurt you. I…I love you!"

Victoria looks back at him and can tell that he is telling the truth. "I…I love you too," she admits to him. "I need time to process all of this but I do love you; I just need time to wrap my head around what has happened."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"I just called Helen and it went to voicemail," Adam announces as he moves into Dawn's hospital room and sees Cheresa sitting next to his daughter. Earlier in the evening, they had received an update from Greg that Dawn is slowly getting better while she is in the medically induced coma, which left them thrilled. Adam, then, went to call Helen to give her the update, but she didn't pick up.

"She did say she was going home to try to get some rest," Cheresa turns and looks back at Adam. "Maybe she is sleeping?"

"Yea, maybe," Adam nods back to her. "She said she would keep her phone on though in case there was a change with Dawn."

Another loud thunder boom echoes through out the room as Cheresa arches her eyebrow back to him. "What do you think is going on? You think something has happened to Helen?"

Adam shrugs back to her. "I hope not, I … I just have a bad feeling about this. I can't figure out why, but something is telling me that I should be worried about Helen."

"I'm sure she's fine," Cheresa tells him. "After all, we just got this great news about Dawn, what else could possibly go wrong?"

The Calimo Mansion

"Lois, thank you for coming over tonight," Natasha tells Lois Kam, as the lawyer sits in the living room of the Calimo mansion while Natasha sits next to Sophie, Robin and Leah as they wait for Lois to read the final will of Cory.

"Of course," Lois purses her lips together as the rainstorm continues to rage outside. "When I heard of Cory's passing and that you wanted this to happen quickly, I dropped everything to come over. First, I am very sorry about your loss."

"Thank you," Sophie replies to her quickly. "This is so hard but maybe hearing my Dad's final wishes will help start to make this feel real."

"Do you want me to read the will now?" Lois asks the women, as they look at one another and nod back to one another.

"Alright, I'll start," Lois replies as she opens the large envelope and pulls out Cory's final will, while Sophie grabs on to Natasha's hand and squeezes it while Leah puts her arm around Robin. "If you are reading this, it is because I have moved from this life and have started my new journey," Lois begins to read. "I know that you might be sad but please remember that I have lead a very good life and I was able to love and be loved. My beautiful Sophie, please know that you were the apple of my eye and I adored you."

Sophie covers her mouth as she feels her eyes swell with more water. "I am leaving you all the funds that are in a special account that I created for you. In the account, there is over 2 million dollars. Please use this to build the future that you have always wanted; the future I know that will be bright like you are."

Sophie buries her face into Natasha's arm while she weeps thinking that her father has left her a millionaire.

"For the mother of my child, my Natasha, the woman that I was married to a few times," Lois continues. "I am leaving you my collection of collectable auto mobiles that are in storage. Please keep them in good shape."

"And the rest of my money and penthouse, I am leaving to the woman that I have always loved," Lois continues as she looks up and looks over at Natasha, Leah and Robin, all who look at one another. "The woman that has always had my heart, no questions asked."

"Who is it?" Leah asks her with a hoarse voice. "Which woman did Cory love more than anything else in the world?" she asks Lois, as she, Robin and Natasha all hold their breath, all believing that Cory loved them the most. Whomever it is, they realize that they are about to be a very wealth woman.

The Lawson Estate; Greg, Kim & Cheresa's Home

"Traci," a started Kim looks back at the maid, who is now pointing a gun at her as they stand in Traci's bedroom of the Lawson estate. Kim has no idea how this discussion that they have been having has escalated to the point of Traci pulling gun on her. "Please, put the gun down. You don't need to do this!"

Another loud thunder crackle shakes the house a little as the rainstorm continues. "You know the truth and I can't let this get out, I've worked too hard on this plan," Tara replies to her in an eerie whisper.

"The truth?" Kim asks her in confusion. "I don't know what you're talking about, Traci. Please, put the gun down and we can talk about this! There doesn't need to be any violence."

"The truth! You know the truth! Stop acting like you haven't figured this out!"

Lightning flashes across the sky which illuminates the window. "I don't know….but maybe you could tell me? What is this all about? Does it have anything to do with the wig I found?"

Tara chuckles back to her. "It has everything to do with that wig," she tells her quickly. "You see, after I escaped the storage locker last year, I used the money that Robbie gave me to visit a plastic surgeon. Why, you're probably asking? Well, I knew that I wanted to get revenge for everything that you all put me through?"

"I…I don't understand…"

"It's me," Tara looks back at her with a twinkle in her eye. "I'm Tara! I'm alive and I've been under all of your noses for months….now do you understand? Now do you see why I can't let you leave here?" she asks her as Kim gulps heavily, trying to wrap her head around what is unfolding in front of her.

Next on One Day at a Time
- What will Tara do to Kim now that the truth is out?
- Nicholas learns the truth from Melissa!
- Who did Cory leave his estate too?
