  Hello all!

  This is my first update.  Due to previous problems posting it
in its entirety, I will post in four parts.  Sorry for the
inconvenience--maybe by next week I will have figured out a
better way.

Scene--mists of Spoon Island:  Alexis and Nikolas

  Alexis is busy assuring Nik that Stefan is not having an
affair with Katherine.  Nik is not so sure and is worried about
Bo believes that Stef married Bobbie for the wrong reasons.
Alexis tells him that Stefan will not renege on his commitments

  She tells him that he (Nik) is the reason that she can now say
that the family comes first with her.  After spending many years
alone, apart from the family, she can be part of it again.  She
looks forward to the day that Nik is in charge of the family.
She tells him he can always count on her.  "I am not just your
cousin.  I am very much your friend."

Later:  Katherine's apartment--Kat and Nik

  Nik asks Kat if Stefan was there.  Close-up on Kat having
mini-flashback (thank God only one this episode) to her and Stef
in the pool, smooching.  She admits that he was there, but is no
more to her than a caring friend.
  Nik is concerned that Stefan is losing "focus" because of his
interest in her.  He doesn't want Stefan to be embarrassed.  Kat
feels he is overreacting.  Nik wonders if Bobbie would agree.

  "He's married, Katherine...you deserve someone of your
own..and he can never be that for you..."

  Kat informs him she is well aware of Stefan's marriage.  She
would never endanger her friendship with Nik.  He answers her,
meaningfully, "I could be *more* than your friend."  A bit later
he backs off (bummer), saying he meant he could encourage her
training, etc.  He brings up Bobbie, explaining "Our family was
in shambles before Bobbie came along. I don't want to see her
hurt."

  Scene--Jax's apartment--Brenda/Jax/Miranda

                 Brenda appears at Jax's door and tells him him she wants to
have an honest talk.  "That's funny," Jax replies.  "That's just
waht Miranda said when she got here."  Miranda is already inside
the apartment.  She toys with a wary Brenda.  Brenda's not sure
she wants to discuss things with Mia there.  Miranda says the
discussion involves all of them.  In a phony-sweet voice, she
offers, "By all means, Brenda, you go first..."

  A bit more cat and mouse goes on, then Brenda says "If you
have something to say, Miranda, just say it."  Miranda parries,
"I thought you were the one with the story to tell." Jax
finally asks Miranda to leave.  She gets pissy ("You want *me*
to leave?"), but goes.  For a minute it looks like Brenda will
come clean about the catacombs, but Kevin's voice in her head
("What purpose would it serve?") causes her to wimp out.  They
exchange some remarks about needing time to think, etc.  They
embrace and Brenda tells him "I'll never forget how
understanding you've been with me."

 (Watch out, Jax.  You're just a step away from "We can still
be friends.")

  As Brenda emerges from the elevator in the main lobby, she is
confronted again by Miranda.  Brenda accuses her of stalking
her like something out of a scary movie of the week.  Miranda
counters with "Either you tell Jax [the truth] or I do."

Scene--Luke's club--Sonny/Taggert/Mac

 Taggert looks like he's choking on something, but he tells
Sonny "I'm not here to hassle you..."  He wants Sonny to share
his information.  Sonny blows up at him, is sick of being
harrassed.  Mac enters and informs them that Emily's
connection (Matt) has been found dead from an overdose.

  Matt Reynolds, age 14, was found hidden in some brush behind
a park bench, his bloodstream full of uncut heroin.  Taggert
explodes at the news.  Mac tells him: "Why are you putting a
personal vendetta ahead of department business?"

  Mac lets Mr. T. know that he wanted to fire his butt, but
Sonny urged him not to.  Taggert asks "Excuse me, sir, I have
a question.  Which one of you is The Man?"

  Taggert accuses Sonny of trying to make Mac think he is the
heroin dealer.  "You've been waiting to set me up...you
already got Scorpio thinking I'm a rogue cop."  Then he asks
Mac "Is he [Sonny] an honorary member of the police force?"

  Mac answers "When Sonny breaks the law, I'll cuff him
myself."  (Guess no one has told him about the gummi bears
:-))  Meanwhile, Taggert's relentlessness could be an asset
if he could just focus it better.

  Sonny reminds T that one kid is in the hospital and one is
dead.  "When are you gonna cry about something that matters?"

  Mac suggests they both focus on finding the person who's
pushing drugs on kids.  Taggert agrees that they're on the
same page on that.

Scene--Mists of Spoon Island--Luke and Stefan

  Stefan appears on the dock to find Luke (and his ever-present
cigar) already there.  Luke asks Stef if he enjoyed his swim
with Tinkerbell.  They exchange insults and Luke taunts Stef
about being the "inept" Cassidine.  He then delivers what must
be the line of the day: "Your family nearly froze the world and
you can't find the air conditioner."

  Stef tells him there's nothing going on with Kat.  "Unlike you
and Laura, my wife and I have no secrets..."

  Luke tells him he's making a pathetic ass of himself.  He
won't even have to tell Bobbie--she'll soon figure out the
truth.  He then informs Stef that Alexis came to see him.  "Now
there is a competent woman...a formidable opponent...she has
her eye on the helm..."

  He then brings up Nik's shared attraction to Katherine:"Don't
you think you boys ought to splash around in a bigger gene
pool?"  Nik is trying to buy sibling affection, Luke goes on,
giving Lulu a Faberge egg.  Or didn't Stefan know?  Did Stef
want to give it to Blondie instead?  Stefan covers his surprise
and insists the egg is worthless.  "Since your wife left you,
Spencer, you're like a clown without a circus...you serve no
purpose."  He gets on the cell phone to call security.  Luke
tells him not to bother.  "When my sister gets back, tell her
hi."

  As Luke walks away, he mutters under his breath "It ain't
gonna be there, buddy." (I assume he's refering to the Faberge
egg.)

 Later, at the club, Luke makes a call.  *Laura* picks up!  On
the table with her phone is the Faberge egg.  L&L talk sexy for
a bit, then Luke tells her "I've finally got Stefan on the
run."  Laura looks serious and worried.

  Meanwhile, back at the castle, Stefan is seriously pissed.
He storms to the wall safe, opens it, and takes out a faberge
egg.  He looks at it, then hurls it against the wall where it
smashes.  At that moment, Bobbie walks through the door.  She
surveys the damage and looks at Stefan in shock.

  end of show--whew!

  send constructive criticism, etc to--

  Nina P.
