The 'Bad" Girls of Port Charles
===========================================================================
At the PC Hotel Grill, Lucy and Maia wait for Norma and Eve for dinner.  They
cackle about how they plan to continue torturing them.  Meanwhile, over at the
Outback, the boys are changing clothes in Mac's office, sure they won't be
interrupted in that haven of male supremacy.  Kevin's tense, he's feeling the
strain of the cross dressing and trying to deceive Lucy.  Also he's worried
that the pantyhose he's wearing might damage his "boys"!  Mac isn't listening,
he's too busy admiring the new green suit he bought.  Mac warns Kevin that
those saris he's been wearing are looking a little frayed around the edges and
why doesn't he try a new look that isn't so dowdy.  The boys discuss Maia's
seminar.  Mac admits that he's impressed by the content and isn't sure Maia
is out to bilk anyone.  Outside in the club area, Robin has arrived for work.
Katherine, sitting at the bar and sucking down her Nth martini of the night,
fills Robin in on Mac's latest "conquest" - the famous Norma St.John Powah!
Robin doesn't believe her and trots off to Unkie Mac's office to find out
about Norma from Mac.  She pounds at the locked door, demanding that Uncle
Mac let her in.  Panic-stricken inside, the boys are momentarily paralyzed.
They decide to brazen it out; they open the door and have a brief conversation
with Robin before they sail past her and into the night.
Meanwhile, over at the PC Hotel where Lucy and Maia await the "girls", the
Steve and Audrey Hardy are talking at the bar with a guy named Dr. WInter from
another hospital.  Dr Winter is gassing away about how women file frivolous
sexual harrassment suits against doctors in order to get big bucks from the
poor overworked medicos.  Norma and Eve stroll in just then and Lucy jumps up
and runs over.  She points out the distinguished Hardy family; by that time
Tom had joined his parents and Dr Winter at the bar.  Kevin looks sick but
goes through with the introduction...lots of hiding behind his long wig,
though.  Norma, Eve, and Lucy start to head to their table when Dr Winter
and Norma start to engage in a bit of lively dialogue about sexual
harrassment.  Kevin, tapping into his newfound feminine side, presents a
convincing argument defending women who bring sexual harrassment charges.  Dr
Winter, however, makes some snide remarks to Norma and Lucy practically has to
restrain Norma from punching Dr Winter's lights out!  Later on after dinner,
Lucy tortures Kevin by telling the "girls" about the big pile of money she's
planning to give Maia for the Spiritual Center.  Then Lucy starts coming on to
Norma, touching her hair, etc., while Kevin becomes increasingly
uncomfortable.  Mac, the rat, chooses that moment to bolt.  He goes to the
Outback and sneaks into his office.  However, Katybell who is returning from
the bathroom, sees Eve go into Mac's office.  She hovers outside the door
hoping to hear something.  Inside, Mac tosses off his wig and shoes, plops
down in his desk chair and lifts his tired size 14s onto the desktop.  Unable
to stand the silence a moment longer, Katherine opens the door just as Mac,
who has heard the sound, wheels around.  "Katherine!" he says.  "Mac???" she
gasps.  Kevin and Lucy end up at her place, ostensibly to review Maia's
financial plans for the Spiritual Center.  Lucy starts touching Norma's leg,
carressing her hair, her face.  Then she whispers exactly what she'd like to
do with her in Norma's ear.  Kevin squeaks "Lucy!!"

Beward of Geeks Bearing Gifts
===========================================================================
Tom seeks out Simone at GH and presents her with the divorce papers.  He tells
her (again) that he's sorry how things have turned out and that he still loves
her.  Then he signs the papers in front of her.  She says she's sorry things
didn't work out,too.  Later on, Tom joints his parents for dinner at the PC
Hotel Grill.  He tells Audrey about signing the divorce papers.  She is sad
but he tells her not to worry; he doesn't intend to lose Simone or Tommy to
Justus or anyone!

A 'Ho by Any Other Name
===========================================================================
Bobby, the heat-seeking-hobag, whizzes into Alan's office at GH.  She tells
him she's going out of town (alone) to a medical convention and wouldn't it
be keen if he was there, too.  They blab for a while and make calf-eyes at
each other.  They are surprised, however, when Emily interrupts them; she's
standing in the doorway to Alan's office.  Bobbie leaves because Emily needs
to talk to Alan alone.  She tells him that she's unhappy living in the
Quartermaine family.  "It's not working out" she sadly tells Alan.

Stone - Tick...Tick...Tick
===========================================================================
Alan tells Stone that his T-cell count is inthe 50s, even lower than when the
kid was first diagnosed.  There are some other medicines they could try on
him, but it would mean intravenous drips and that means Stone would have to
come to the hospital every day.  Stone seeks out Robin, who agrees that life
isn't fair.  Then Stone says he's decided to tell Jagger [what about Gina,
the sister who lives in town??]. Robin hands him a phone.
