Sorry this is late!

Opening Scenes..

1 - BRENDA AND JAX GO AT IT AGAIN..
2 - JERRY AND BOBBIE PLAY DOCTOR..
3 - LAURA GETS CAUGHT.. OR DOES SHE?
Brenda and Jax exit the elevator and of course get all
mushy-let's-have-sex-right-here-in-the-corridor like. They go inside to
make love until Brenda suddenly has to check her messages (she's
expecting a call from Robin). She gets upset and JAx asks her if it's
bad news. "Not unless you mind being apart" she says. She got a photo
shoot opportunity in Paris. She sits down uncomfortably (her hip is
still bothering her) and tries to convince Jax to perform at the Nurse's
Ball. (They could do a little act together she suggests). He tells her
of his one experience acting. He played a giraffe in a christmas play.
Brenda points out there are no giraffes in the festive season (they
looked like they were genuinely having fun here) and he says he woudln't
play antyhing else.

Bobbie is helping Jerry walk to his hotel room even though he is still
trying to sweet talk her through his pain of being beaten. She sits him
down and unbuttons his shirt while he's being very suggestive in his
remarks. He suggests they order champagne. She asks why. He tells her
they need ice. She asks why they don't just order a bucket of ice (LOL).
They order ice and sparkling water in the end.

Luke sees through the glass that Laura is visiting with good old
Steffin. They are talking about Stefan being Nikolas's father. He blames
Laura for Katherine finding out the truth about Nikolas's paternity but
she defends herself by reminding him that it was he who invited her in
the first place. THey talk about the new portrait (very quickly.. not
much said). He ends the conversation and accuses Luke of framing him for
murder. He had grabbed her hands right before this and she yanks them
away after the accusation quite disgustedly. "DO you honestly believe
I'm going to let him get away with it?" he says.

ON TO THE MAIN SHOW..

LAURA, LUKE and STEFAN
(AT PCPD)
Laura lets Stefan know that Nikolas is curious about his father and
Laura is afraid he will discover the truth while Stefan tries to
"boobie-trap" Luke. The only answer is to maintain that Stavros is his
father Stefan says and Laura agrees. Laura leaves and offers her
condolences to Stefan which he doesn't acknowledge.

(AT LUKE'S)
Luke refills his glass with alcohol and puts down the empty liquor
bottle (Whoa, Luke, what're you DOING??) Lauara walks in. He's been
looking for her and asks where she was. She doesn't tell him she's been
to PCPD to see Stefan. She got his message about Lucky and that's why
she's there. Luke asks about his daughter. "Our daughter is fine" she
says. She asks if she's missed something, if something is wrong. Between
them? No Luke says, they're perfect. And offers her a drink. She wishes
he wouldn't have anymore. She thinks he drunk but he assures her he
hasn't even started. She wants to talk to him. She's trying to see the
bigger picture and he asks if that is what Stefan's helping her with.
She wants to know what he means and he asks if there was another reason
to see him. Laura wants to know if Luke's been spying her but he reminds
her it's a small town. Did she think she could see Stefan without him
knowing? He says that she probably didn't even think about him but she
tells him that she thinks about him, a lot.  She asks if he framed
Stefan. Luke dodges the question and points a finger at Stefan. She
admits she can't believe he would kill an innocent woman and he says
"Well, there you have it" She asks him not to put anymore lives at stake
(she tries to reach out to him but he pulls away). He wants to know if
she thought seeing Stefan would be a good start? (Good one Luke!) It was
about anger she says. He suggests it wasn't her ffirst time. He's
baiting her but she didn't come to fight. He just wants to know why his
wife is so cozy with his mortal enemy. He asks if they've seen each
other lately, in Switzerland, NC, Spoon Island. He just wants to know
how it works between her and Stefan. Laura defends her position with
Stefan since Nikolas is living with him. She had to choose between Luke
and Nikolas before and she's regretted it ever since. She won't choose
again. If that means contact with Stefan from time to time then so be
it. Luke doesn't think there's anything left to say. Laura's trying to
understand why he's shutting her out. He's not the only one. She was
kept in the dark about everything, doesn't she have a right to be angry
she wants to know. He tells her it was a judgement call but Laura's just
trying to get past it. Luke says it shouldn't be hard. The point is, she
says, is that she's there and trying to work things wout with him. He
can stay and drink or go home and try to put their family back together.
He will, as soon as she tells him how they're supposed to do that. Laura
doesn't have any answers. Although, he might want to think about her and
how she came home and is in their bed, if he'd come to join her. It's
not that simple to him. "It is to me" she says and then leaves. Luke
looks devastated (excellent acting today for Anthony). He refills his
glass, but before he takes a sip, he throws it against the wall and
tears form in his eyes..

JAX BECOMES A LISENCSED THERAPIST..
Brenda looks worried as she tells Jax of the photo shoot in Paris. She
is afraid to fly. She's not ready to get in a plane after the crash. If
she asks to postpone they might replace her. He is convinced he can help
her but she tells him he can't. She wants him to leave this alone and
wants to avoid an argument about it. He promises he can get her through
it. She looks panicked but he assures her it happens to pilots all the
time. She tells him he doesn't understand because he doesn't know what
he was like and proceeds to descibe the whole crash to him. He says they
don't have to talk about it but she can't stop thinking about it. He
tells her to close her eyes. He tells her to envision a plane flight
with him as her pilots. AS they're flying he goes and holds her. She
freaks out: "who is at the controls??" Only the best pilot he knows he
says. He continues to lead her through the simulated flight. She asks
him to land when she asks how she's doing. He brings her to a complete
stop and promises that's how they'll do it tomorrow. He tells her Jerry
is the pilot he was referring to and she says "Oh No." Brenda wakes up
from a nightmare about the crash. She tells him that it was him (JAx)
that was with her this time, not Jason, and she knew that they were
going to die. It was awful, so Jx comforts her. BRenda doesn't think she
can go tomorrow and he won't force her but they should wait to see how
she feels tomorrow. He tells her he loves her (doesn't he tell her that
every second??) and that he won't let anything happen to her (uh, that
too).

PINOCCHIO AND THE NURSE..
Bobbie wraps Jerry's chest with bandage. She tells him about the NUrse's
Ball and what it stands for. She tells him he should come. He doesn't
answer, but she tells him to raise his arm and he can't. She suggests
xrays. She also insinuates that he's hiding something big if he's
willing to tough it out like this. Jerry denies that anything sinister
is going on. First he suggests the beat up is a result of a jealous
husband. He brings up Stefan and she asks him if she should be impressed
if he knows that. She doesn't buy the story. On to excuse #2. There was
a big guy in a terminator t-shirt. That was the last thing he saw. He
appreciates her help. He tells her he's not completely alone -- he
always has Jax to rely on, no questions asked. She can relate; she has
Luke. He wants to take her flying but she tells him he ought to get a
brain scan and THEN call her (ROFL). She asks him once more what
happened and doesn't want any fairy tales. He tells her (excuse #3) that
in his business, when someone makes a bad investment, they blame him,
and they come to take it out on him. He assures her now the score is
settled. She gets up to leave but when Bobbie opens the door, Jax is
there. JAx says he'll come back but first Jerry asks him to be discreet
about Bobbie's presence. Bobbie asks Jax to take Jerry for xrays and a
complete psychological evaluation (LOL again). Wouldn't be a bad idea
Jax adds. HE wants to know what happened and Jerry said he got in an
accident and didn't have his seatbelt on. JAx tells her how he wanted
Jerry to fly tomorrow but Bobbie says he's in no condition to walk, let
alone fly. Jerry says he'll be there and not to listen to her. Bobbie
threatens him should he go near a plane. Jerry declares his love for
Bobbie (very jokingly) and says she's a saint. JAx will call in the
morning, and asks Bobbie if she knows what she's getting herself into.
Jax leaves. Jerry tells her he owes her one and she agrees. What does he
owe her? The truth or she'll tell Jax how he really got hurt. Bobbie
guesses it was over a bank problem. He didn't tell Jax what happened
because Jax has a lot of other stuff on his mind like the docks project
and Brenda. Jerry asks Bobbie to stay, but she declines. He tells her he
loves a woman who plays hard to get. When he asks if she's the slightest
bit attracted to him, she admits she's not. She tells him her past of
growing up on the streets so if he thinks she believes his story, he's
out of his mind. She guesses he didn't tell Jax because he's in over his
head.

STEFAN
Stefan flashes back to Katherine's engagement announcement and the
placing of the ring, then Katherine finding Laura's portrait and turning
to him crying, then her falling and screaming. Stefan puts his hands
over his ears to try to drown it out and in walks Taggart and asks if
Mr. Cassindine is ok (what, sympathy from Taggart? Don't worry, it was
short lived). Taggart explains he got caught up in another case to
they'll have to continue the tete a tete tomorrow, but he's sure it's
alrigth since Stefan probably didn't have any other plans. He takes him
back to his cell.
