Maybe we can get back to real stories and development and no more MDP.

On the Love Boat, everyone is having a grand old time when all of the sudden there is a sharp lurch and roll. EdQ calls down to the captain who tells him that the boat has hit some Coney Island(?) rocks. EdQ makes a preliminary announcement and then goes down to check the hull with the captain, along with Ned and Allan, leaving Carmine in charge of crowd control. AJ tells Jason to make sure Lila gets out. People start getting excited, Lois' twin nephews start chanting "We're going to sink"; Sonny, after several people mention lifevests, goes to look for life preservers parphanella and Emily says 'Wow, wait till I tell Mom about this'. Well, Mom (Paige) is being driven to the hospital by Monica. Once there Monica, who knows what the prognosis and diagnosis is all too well, wants to hear from the cancer doc what the story is. Doc says xrays will show chest getting past point of no return and life span is now in days. They check Paige in and Monica gets the fears confirmed. She gets Paige to sign the paper saying no extraordinary means. Bobi comes by and hangs around to help out Paige and Monica. The doctor signs Paige out and tells Monica that there's no need to skimp on the morphine. Paige is going back to the Q mansion to die. Luke, taking & looking for an early night, walks into the Brownstone and sees Tony having a chips and salsa dinner with wine. He asks where Bobi is, Tony tells him she is attending a demonstration of surgical procedure trainings via a virtual reality program. They have a serious conversation about the states of their psyches and marriages. Luke hypothsizes that marriage is floating downstream in a leaky boat and if you get it just right, you realize that there is no one else you want to be bailing with. Luke allows how he and Bobi are pretty much the same, always rushing to look over the next hill and unable to make long term changes in their characters. Tony says he still isn't ready to re-unite, Luke says he will give Laura some time but then he is going to come after her strong. Q's and the captain look at the damage, it is bad. The flooding is over taking the blilge pumps. The captain decides to pull off the rocks and make a run for Sheepshead Bay. They decide to start baleing water so go upstairs to get a dozen people to form a brigade. The CoastGuard has been informed that there might be people needing assistance in managing NY Harbor. In the maentime, Carmine gets the band to start playing some dancing music to relieve the tension [Question: Who is this Grace that Mrs Cirello gave the champagne to?]. Just then the boat lurches and EdQ comes in to tell people what is happening and to get the bailers. Mac, Kevin, Justus, Sonny, Lois, Ned, Brenda, McUgly, AJ, Keisha and Lilly (somewhere Jason got into this). EdQ and Alan are both forced to stay up, due to health reasons. As the porter and Reginald hand out the life vests, EdQ suggest playing 'Nearer to Thee'. Alan doesn't think it is such a good idea to play "The Titanic" song, but Reginald says that the song actually played was "Autumn". Carmine confirms this and EdQ asks them how do they know, where they there. Reginald says - L I N E O F T H E D A Y "I'm somewhat of a maritime disasters buff." [hint: think bud bowl] Turns out that Carmine is also. EdQ just mutters about reviosinist history. Lilla thinks singing would be a great idea, and a great dis-chorus begins when the band starts "Michael rode a boat ashore". EdQ orders MayMae to stand up to the mike, which she does good-humordly (yes, lieutenant) and starts "Neither to Thee", eventually the others join in. The bailers split into 2 groups to bail buckets: the engine room and above deck. Both groups can hear the chorus. Lois quotes book and page number about how "Autumn" was the actual song. The chorus finishes and Mac starts "99 buckets on the wall". Needless to say, they make it to Sheepshead Bay. Everyone comes back up and starts chattering. Kevin says he could go for dry clothes and a warm bath. Mac says he hopes Kevin didn't mean in that order; Kevin - "I've been known to deviate." :) Brenda once again acts like a jerk towards Lilly and Sonny just gives Brenda a look of "Just what the hell is your problem exactly." Everyone gets off to head to their respectives domiciles for the night, Ned promises Lois eternal devotion. Lois and Mom share a tender moment and pasta in Lois' old room. They reminisce about major events that occured when Lois was 12, a sophmore and a senior in high school. The guys invade Ned's room with hard drink and plenty of videos about shipwrecks and one which the clerk gave them by mistake. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Conundrum: How can Oprah be best talk show when BreakFast Time wasn't even nominated?
