Revisiting An Original Relationship
-----------------------------------
Lucy stops by Kevin's office.  She wants to revisit their original
relationship, when she was seeing Kevin professionally.  Kevin's not so
sure that's a good idea but Lucy convinces him she needs advice from him
and she wants him to view the situations dispassionately.  Kevin is alarmed
but will hear Lucy out.  She has a letter for him to read.  It's from Maia,
claiming Maia will *not" accept any money for the center from Lucy since
Maia doesn't want to cause any more discord between Lucy and Kevin as that
relationship is so important to Lucy.  Maia goes on with another reason,
that there is darkness and disharmony ahead for Kevin and Lucy.  Kevin
immediately figures that Maia means more Ryan and reminds Lucy that his past
is off limits to Maia.  Lucy agrees but will still listen to anything Maia
has to say.  Kevin says he's "trying" to take Maia at face value.  They
affirm their love.  Lucy has another item for Kevin.  Seems she's had the
profit projections worked out if she would hook up with Damian and they
look mighty good.  Kevin tries to remind her of Luke's warning, the situation
in Charles Street and how upset the Qs, the folks who own her company would
be but Lucy claims that's just politics.  All Lucy can see are dollars to
be made.  Kevin notes the conversation will be moot once Edward see the
proposal, since he's vehemently against Dayco.  Fearfully Lucy just figures
all will be all right.  (Voice of Doom #1)  Later Mac stops by and it's
obvious to Kevin that Mac's a little tired.  Hmmmm.   Mac is there since
they still have to figure out what to do about Maia.  Armed with the
information in Maia's letter to Lucy, Kevin figures "Ryan" might make a
reappearance.  This time they'll be ready.  Kevin will stay on scene, secure
there premises and alert Mac.  The code will be that Kevin needs a reality
check, Mac will offer to come over, Kevin will decline but Mac will come
anyways.  Then they'll sweep the place.

Nothing Happened! and Anger...Internal and External
---------------------------------------------------
Alan brings coffee and juice to Monica in their bedroom and he is all
bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.  Monica wants no parts of it or him.  They
take their argument into the hall drawing AJ, Jason and Emily out of their
rooms.  Alan accuses her of hanging him out to dry and blames it all on her.
The argument continues as they all move down the stairs into the foyer where
Reggie is surrounded by Quartermaines, those arguing and those just watching.
Ned and Lois arrive as the argument moves into the living room where Lila
and Edward are.  Monica tells everyone about finding "her best friend,
Bobbie, butter-wouldn't-melt-in-her-mouth," Jones in her husband's hotel
room.  Alan claims "Nothing happened" but *all* the Qs attack Alan as Emily
can't believe what she's seeing.  She finally runs from the room and only
Lois notices Emily leaving.  Lois tries to get Emily to go with her to the
gatehouse but Emily just has to get out and off she goes.  Lois returns as
the Qs are at it fast and furious and utters "Holy mackerel!"  Alan and Moncia
take their argument back upstairs as the rest of the family tries to figure
out what will happen.  Ned thinks Alan may be telling the truth and all will
work out.  Finally Lois points out Emily had run off and they all acknowledge
they need to pay more attention to Emily.  Lois offers to invite Emily to a
celebration for the near release of Mary Mae's CD.  Ned and Lois head out and
as they get to the foyer the fighting Drs. are also heading out.  Ned promises
Lois that will never happen to them.  (Voice of Doom #2.)  AJ and Jason are
left alone to discuss the mornings events.  Jason is worried about another
divorce but AJ doesn't think there will be one,  In fact AJ believes Alan.
AJ does admit every time Alan and Monica fight like that he wants to head for
the bottle but he doesn't want to destroy the progress he's made, even Edward
seems to be proud of him.  The one thing AJ is lacking is a girl and Jason
wonders if AJ covets AJ's brother's girl.  AJ claims no.  AJ get Jason to
say "convincingly" that he doesn't believe AJ would go after Keesha.  (Voice
of Doom #3)

Meanwhile over at the Spencers Lucky's emotions erupt over a change in his
lunch.  Laura calls him to task on his testiness, attributing it to teenage
rebellion.  Laura tries to get him to see her feelings get hurt too but
Lucky doesn't think his mother understands how much anger he is harboring
and that she is the cause of it all.  Emily arrives and Lucky can see
something is wrong at the Qs.  Emily doesn't want to talk about it for fear
of exploding.  Lucky understands and they commiserate.  With Laura at the
top of the stairs, she hears Lucky talk about how his mom doesn't understand
how angry he is inside.  Emily does compare living at the Quartermaines to
being put in the middle of an alien space family where they where what they
say and do has code underneath it all and she doesn't have the translator to
break the code.  As they're ready to go off to school Laura brings each of
them a piece of banana cake as a treat for lunch.  When Lucky offers to show
LUKE'S to Emily it's ok with Laura.

Now...at the Joneses it's all calm, a sharp contrast with the Quartermaines.
Bobbie is taking a personal day, not wanting to run into Alan or Monica,
but Tony is looking forward to running into Alan.  Bobbie suggests Tony do
what she's going to do, schedule an emergency session with Kevin.  Bobbie
is amazed Tony is "glad" it happened.   For him it shows how wrong things
have gotten.  Despite the calm interior Tony is very angry.  But, amazingly
he believes that nothing happened between Alan and Bobbie.  Tony is willing
to play out the therapy so that at the end he can say he tried.  Bobbie heads
off to her session with Kevin.  When she walks in she tells Kevin she's got
herself finding trouble that could hurt a lot of people.  She tries to
rationalize that she and Alan were entitled to a little fun and that she was
motivated by the excitement of a new lover. (Ah, the ho in her coming out!)
When Kevin wonders if the phone call was a cry to be caught she claims she
was only trying to protect everyone.  Bobbie is worried about Tony's
centeredness.  For herself she wants an additional solo session each week
before she does more damage.  (That means Kevin has to see her THREE times
a week.  I hope he gets hazard pay.)  Out at the nurses station Tony runs
into Alan, much to Alan's dismay.  Tony would love to give Alan a punch and
takes off his jacket.  Instead of spilling blood in the hall Alan would like
to talk peacefully.  Tony says...go ahead, explain as it fades to black.

Till Next Time
