Miguel: Bangin' on them Bongos like a Chimpanzee!
=============================================================================
Show opens with Mig still wailing and hair-tossing onstage in Puerto Rico.
LeLee, Brenda, Sonny, Lois and Ned watch from backstage.  Lois admits that
she's glad Ned returned. Brenda wants Sonny to reassure her that everything
is under control; he assures her while looking nervously around for Rivera'
goons.  Meanwhile, in the area in back of the stage, the goons have taken
care of the cops on duty and the limo driver. Lily's Pa skulks in the shadows.
Ned lures Lois to a quiet place backstage.  He tells her he's so proud of her
for arranging Mig's concert. She tries to be modest but he won't let her. They
end up hugging (nice, LONG, hug!).  Meanwhile, the concert has ended and Mig
and crew run for the limo out back.  They run straight into the arms of the
goons, who hustle everyone into the limo and speed off.  Meanwhile, Lois
missed out on all the fun (I told you it was a long hug) and when she and Ned
arrive in the back, only Puerto Rican policemen are milling around. They tell
the couple that Mig and company were kidnapped.  Lois quickly explains to
Ned about Frank Smith's death and the vacuum of power that both Sonny and Sr
Rivera are trying to fill.  Ned is appalled at the prospect of violence;
especially any violence that might be directed toward Lois.  He grabs her arm
and hustles her back to the hotel, where they'll be safe.  She admits to him
that she's REALLY glad he's with her.  Meanwhile in the speeding limo, Sonny
explains to Mig and LeLee about Frank Smith's death. LeLee realizes her Pa is
behind the kidnapping. They arrive at the Rivera house and Pa Rivera spends
a few quality minutes taunting the kidnapees.  Finally Rivera and Sonny settle
down, alone, to discuss "things"!

Elsie May and Laura Clump Together for Safety
=============================================================================
In Port Chuck, Lucky has just heard on the radio about Frank Smith. His
elation turns to worry when Laura tells him that Luke is in Puerto Rico and
plugged Frank. Laura explained about Sean and how Frank came to be killed.
Lucky is worried that the mob guys will come after Laura and LuLu; Laura tells
him that Foster will protect them. They talk for a while and both end up in
tears [geez, are they great together or what?].  Tiff arrives but has nothing
new to report.  She wants Laura and family to move into the penthouse with
her until Sean and Luke return. Laura reluctantly allows herself to be
convinced and the family, including Foster, moves in with Tiff.  Before she
left the house, she left a message on the answering machine, telling Roger
that Lulu has moved in with Elsie May (Tiff's real name was Elsie May
Krumholtz) for a few days.

Edward Clanks His Stainless Steel Balls; Jason and Keesha Pay Their Respects
=============================================================================
At GH, Jason and Keesha drop by to visit Edward.  He's less than thrilled when
he catches sight of her.  They get right to it when Edward asks Keesha, "do
you believe I'm a murder?"  Keesha tells him she doesn't know him, but has
faith in her Granny-Mae's high opinion of Edward.  They strike a tentative
peace. Jason tells Eddie that once he gets home, Jason will practice doctoring
on him; he envisions health food and lots of exercise.  Edward groans in mock
agony...the mood lightens.  Keesha brings out some Chinese Stress Balls, two
stainless steel balls the size of ping pong balls; Edward teases her but
takes the gift and starts clanging the balls together.  Edward chases Jason
from the room; he wants to talk to Keesha alone. Edward tells her that he
likes her very much but feels that an intimate relationship with Jason would
be a mistake.  She assumes it's because she's black, but Edward tells her
that's not the reason. He says there's "bad blood" between the Wards and the
Quartermaines and in her (and Jason's) best interest, they should not get
involved.  Keesha says she doesn't understand about the "bad blood" and that
she and Jason shouldn't be blamed for something that happened 20 years ago!
Outside in the hallway, Keesha and Jason vow to stay together.
