Lucy Gets the Shock of her Life!
===========================================================================
Lucy realizes that Norma is really Kevin; Maia points out that Eve is Mac and
insists she knew from the very beginning.  She identified Kevin by his aura.
Lucy starts to bubble over with anger and embarrassment but Maia explains
that Kevin/Mac have crashed the conference to find out the womens' secrets.
Maia defuses Lucy and tells her that she believes Kevin's masquerade was well-
intentioned.  Lucy is still steaming but Maia says let's show the boys what
it's REALLY like to be women.  Meanwhile the boys are buzzing around the
buffet table like flies around a manure pile, babbling on about cheese puffs
etc.  Lucy starts to needle them by speaking in a loud voice to Maia and
offering her lots of money.  The boys overhear and instantly assume Maia has
made her monetary move on Lucy.  "Norma" wanders over and invites herself
and Eve to have dinner with Maia and Lucy in order to discuss fund raising
techniques.  Norma and Eve want to go to some quiet hideaway but Lucy insists
on going to Luke's!  They buzz over there and, sure enough the joint is
jumping with Robin, Stone, Luke, Filly, Tom.  Lucy trots poor Norma and Eve
around and introduces them to the group.  They finally settle at a table and
Lucy decides to snare some guys to join them.  The boys are horrified at the
implications.  She ropes Sonny into coming over to the table and flirting
with the "English visitors"!  After Sonny leaves, Lucy needles Eve and Norma
for not letting Sonny take them out on the town.  Norma and Eve seek shelter
in the ladies room to repair their "war paint"; Mac comments that they'd
better leave soon or his 5 o'clock shadow will start showing.  Kevin agrees.
Eve pleads a crashing headache and Lucy inquires sweetly whether it's her
"time of the month"!  Thelma and Louise exit, stage left, as Lucy and Maia
cackle away.  Outside, Kevin fumes believing that Lucy is hot-to-trot with
any available male.  Mac whistles for a taxi and the gruesome twosome ride
off into the night.

Filly and Tom Step Out on the Town
===========================================================================
Felicia has been phoning around town looking for a babysitter.  She explains
her predicament to Tony who offers to babysit the kids.  Just after she
accepts his offer Tom wanders in to pick her up.  Tony appears to be gracious
about it, but hmmmm...
Tom and Filly arrive at Luke's and Mike shows them to Filly's special
"birthing" table.  They chat and look around the club.  Tom notices that Luke
is giving him the "evil eye" and Filly remarks that Justus will probably
hear about their date.  Tom says he doesn't care.  He talks about the
impending divorce but Filly isn't paying attention to what he says; she has
just spotted Norma and Eve.

Stone Tries to be the Peacemaker
===========================================================================
Stone tries to talk Sonny into making up with Brenda because both of them are
miserable and Stone knows Sonny would be happier if everything was back to
"normal".  Stone suggests that Sonny knows he's wrong about Brenda but
doesn't want to be the one to back down.  Sonny reacts strongly and tells
Stone to tell Brenda to get over it.  Sonny says he's gotten on with his own
life and Brenda should get on with hers.  Stone persists and says that before
he dies, he wants to "give Brenda back to you the way it was"...Sonny advises
him that he's wasting his time.  Stone then talks to Luke about his peace-
making plans for Brenda and Sonny.  Luke is skeptical about getting B&S
together again.  Luke changes the subject and asks Stone what he really wants
to do (inferred "before you die").   Stone decides he always wanted to bungi-
jump off a building at night.  Luke says "cool" and says "let's do it"!
Luke borrows some bungi-jumping equipment and he and Stone and Robin depart
for a high place.  Well, the kid actually jumps; he's torqued up like crazy
afterwards and Luke is pleased that he could do something for the kid.
