Scene 5

Cassidine mindgame.

doing for AIDS/HIV youth.  They chat briefly about Miranda before Jason arrives
to take her to the airport.
Scene 8
Jax tries to soothe Brenda's ruffled feathers about Miranda, but she's
implacable saying she feels threatened. He justly counters that when she
kvetched over Lily's death and went to Sonny on numerous occasions, he didn't
make an issue of it.
Scene 9
Miranda and Sonny shoot pool and discuss Brenda and Jax.  He asks if she wants
to know about Brenda, why not just ask Mac.  "Because he's a gentleman," she
replies, "but you're ..."  "Down and dirty," he completes her thought and
smiles broadly.

Scene 11
Carly chortles around the new apartment, They discuss GH a bit, and Carly is
adamant about not going back there.

he looks shocked at some news saying, "No, when?"
Scene 13
Luke and Lucky continue to play Timoria through Level 5. After Tom Hardy
arrives and Luke and he go outside to talk, Laura gets a frantic call from
Stephan who says, "You have to tell me everything you know about a game called
Timoria." When she tells him about the game, he insists she meet him
immediately in secret as it could mean life or death.
Scene 14
As Luke and Tom discuss Stephan, an excited Lucky comes out saying he's figured
out that what they want is in Rochester. When they all return inside, Laura is
gone.
Scene 15
Back at Stephan's, he makes profuse apologies to Bobbie and rushes out.
Scene 16
Tony finally gets Carly to admit that she overheard Amy [Jeez, you should have
seen Amy's makeup. She makes Tammy Faye look natural. Who does her makeup, Mimi
from the "Drew Cary Show"?] and Audrey gossiping about her saying she just
wanted to hook a doctor. Tony tells her not to worry about what those harpies
say.  After all, she and he are just the GH gossip flavor of the week.  He also
asks her why she thinks she'll be the one left behind; doesn't she think he's
insecure too. She agrees that they can make it work despite what people say,
and they play rug wrestle. [I think good ole Tony looks a bit peppier these
days, eh. ;)]
Scene 17
Sonny tells Miranda that Brenda's a manipulative brat but has fire and spirit;
however she's clueless about what she really wants.  He says he did a good deed
exposing the truth. She says Jax isn't the scoundrel Sonny would like him to be
and mentions she's having dinner with him that evening. [Perhaps hoping Sonny
will go to Brenda?]
Scene 18
Brenda, looking like some overage oversexed schoolgirl, invites Justus to come
by to talk about Jax's and her marital legalities. Though Jax is heading out to
see Miranda, he decides to dally a while to hear what Justus says. When Justus

lock affectionately.

Carly tells Bobbie that Tony is out, but Bobbie says she'd like to wait. When
Carly says, "You must hate me." Bobbie replies flatly, "I hardly think about
you. It's not my business."  In a moment of perfect timing, Tony arrives
lugging a new mattress.  When Bobbie sees him with the mattress on his back she
comments, "Hey, that reminds me of my first job."

could still get to Laura through her mother. Laura insists that Stephan tell
