LLANFAIR 'REUNION'...

Kevin welcomed Jessica home. He was followed by Joey, who hugged his
sister and took her into the library to talk. Kevin went into the library
where Joey took a verbal 'stab' at him. Jess looked at them, a question
in her eyes. Kevin asked Joey if he thought that it was the appropriate
'time' to do that. Joey told Jessica that Kevin had had an 'affair' with
his wife Kelly! Kevin denied the 'affair', things began to get heated and
Viki begged them both to please stop!

STRIPES MAKE THE MAN!

Far from 'cooling his heels' in jail, Daniel lambasted Rae for her lack
of common decency! He told her she knew quite well that there had not
been an 'assault' on her! John Sykes told him that he had been using a
'child' to commit emotional abuse on a woman! He told Falkner that he
would let him stay the full twenty-four hours in jail, and Daniel looked
stricken. He told them that he was afraid of 'being killed' while he was
in jail!

KELLY - BLAIR - PALACE HOTEL

Kelly relayed her story to Blair, who was only half listening. She said
she'd been kicked out of the carriage house, and that Joey wouldn't speak
to her. All Blair could say was that she'd 'told her so', and she ought
to go and be with Kevin. Kelly explained that she couldn't do that,
because Kevin didn't want her either...

LLANFAIR BLUES...

Viki asked Kevin and Joey if they couldn't get it out in the open and
deal with the problem. The accusations flew and Kevin apologized again.
Joey told him it didn't help to hear that! Jess reminded them that they
were sitting in the exact positions they had been in when Viki told them
about her cancer. She told them about the promise they had made to stick
together as a family, no matter what...

KELLY'S FUTILE CONFESSION

Blair said that Kelly's problem was that she made all her mistakes by not
doing what she really wanted. She said that 'she' had the guts to go
after what she wanted and get it! Kelly reminded her that Max wanted
their marriage to work. Blair was still into revenge and said that
despite their 'love', she intended to take every scrap of human decency,
respect, and money from him! Kelly warned her she could wind up with
nothing...Skye walked into the room, and Kelly finished her remark,
saying that Blair would wind up sending Max right back to Skye! Skye
stopped by the Maitre d' to inquire about the man she had been with the
evening before. He informed her of the  police arrest and that he had
been taken to jail...

'JAIL BECOMES YOU'

John wanted to know who wanted to kill Daniel besides Rae! "The Mob" said
Daniel. He blamed the mess he was in entirely on Rae, saying that he had
to take  their money to disappear! He had invested money for Grace's
family and had lost it, they had been after him ever since! He told Rae
that she might get what she wanted from him after all, if she gave him
one million dollars! Rae looked him in the eye and told him to 'go ahead
and die!'. John sidled up to the bars and told Daniel that if his 'mob'
story was true, he was going to ask the security guard to be sure and
give Daniel 'lots of privacy' that night! He told him that way, maybe he
would see him in the morning, and then again, maybe not! Daniel's face
took on a now familiar stricken appearance!

'THE CHEESE TELLS A LIE!'

Colin told Sam and Todd that Will had been there, he looked like heck and
he wanted Lanie to change his appearance! Todd was lurking about and
making Colin visibly uncomfortable. Colin told Sam that Will was fine,
that he'd fed him, let him rest and that he'd wanted to call his
'girlfriend' so he'd let him use the phone. Todd's antenna shot up and
zoomed in on the lie immediately. He asked Colin if he was making him
nervous. Colin insisted he was not! Todd asked him if he 'liked' to lie!
Colin started for him verbally, and Sam interjected, demanding to know
where his son was, now!

Colin said that Will hadn't told him 'anything' and Sam said he wondered
'why' he didn't believe Colin! Will regained consciousness and tried to
steady himself enough to make the stairs. Sam heard the sound as Will
fell back down the few steps he'd managed to climb. Will was truly out
cold, this time. Nora heard the noise and called out to him. Sam went to
investigate the noise...

LLANFAIR BLUES...TWO...

Jessica told Joey that he and Kelly had been through so much, that he and
Kevin were, and always would be, brothers... She asked him to work hard
not to sever the family ties. Joey had the right to feel betrayed, but
Kevin was deeply hurt, and they all loved him. Kevin and Viki both, asked
Joey if there was anything that Kevin could do, to rectify the
situation...

'THE BIG CHEESE STINKS!'

Colin told Sam and Todd that he'd been taking some books down to the
basement and had left them on the stairs, they must have fallen! He told
Sam that Will was gone and that he wasn't sorry! He didn't want to be
part of any trouble! Sam told him that if Will contacted him, he was to
let Sam know! Colin said that he would! Todd told Sam that it was time to
go!

As they left, Colin dragged Will from the exterior basement room, to the
one he had been in before. He sat him up and told the unconscious man
that his mom had run out of time and that he would have to turn Will in
ahead of time!

Upstairs, Nora felt around in a drawer and came up with a big safety pin!
Looking very pleased, she hit it under her pillow and pretended to be
very sleepy when Colin came to check on her. Colin said he was going to
the hospital and would see her in the morning. She said she didn't need
anything but sleep, and smiled as he left the room. She immediately got
up and headed for the door, using a chair as a 'walker'...

RAE'S FURY!

Rae was enraged, she told John that maybe the reason Daniel had pulled
all these tricks on her was her punishment for something she had done in
the past! John told her that he was sorry, that he wished he could force
the truth from Daniel! She wondered what would happen if Daniel died, his
'secret' would die with him! John told her that she had been deceived by
a con artist, and that he was the cop who was going to make it right!

THREE 'AMIGO'S' AT THE PALACE!

Skye, on her cell phone, thanked a "Mr. Shyer" and her father, for the
status update on Daniel Falkner. She stopped by Blair's table to say
hello. Kelly lit into her, which was a mistake! She questioned Skye on
the number of married men and notches on the bedpost it would take to
satisfy her! Skye smiled as she told Kelly that if she chased Kevin, she
'might' have a chance with him, but oh! as she recalled, they were
'related', weren't they! Before she went her 'merry way', she told Blair
about nearly having to 'hose Max down'. Blair told Kelly she didn't
believe Skye for a minute! Kelly tried to get Blair to reveal her plan
for revenge but she wasn't talking. "All in good time, my pretty" was all
she said!

VIKI - JOEY - JESSICA

Joey insisted that his problem was only between him and Kevin! He said
that he would handle it himself and that he would get past it.

SAM - TODD - 0PPORTUNITY 'FALLS!'

Sam told Todd they were leaving but Todd insisted he was going to stay
and have a 'look see'. Sam reminded him they didn't want trouble with the
law! Todd said that if he 'did' have trouble with the law, he would have
a lawyer, right? Sam said he 'hated it' when Todd did that! He shook his
head and left!

CLOSE ENCOUNTER...

Rae told John that she didn't deserve a man like him. John said that she
was right, she deserved someone 'perfect'. She told him that he wasn't
'perfect', he was 'amazing'!, and they kissed...

THE LADY IS 'CONNECTED'!

Skye walked into the room where Daniel was being held and he asked her
why she had come. She told him that she knew who he was, his name,
background, everything. That he was a first class grifter, who had stolen
from her father. That she was "Skye Chandler of the Pine Valley
Chandler's", but she was willing to forgive and forget. Would Daniel be
willing to do what she wanted him to? He smiled and asked what he could
do for her...

LLANFAIR 'AFFAIR'

Viki asked Kevin if he could spare a few minutes to speak about a
business matter, and they left the room. Jess tried to tell Joey that she
understood exactly how he felt because she had been betrayed by Will and
she was fine now! Joey told her that he'd said those things about
'family' for their mother's sake, that for him there 'was no Kevin'. He
told her she was a good kid, but that's all she was really, just  a kid.
She asked what was getting at, and he wondered if she wasn't getting
married 'too soon'...

FINAL MOMENTS...

Nora made it to the door and tried the safety pin, but it either fell
through the hole or down inside of it...

Downstairs at Colin's, Todd entered the house through an open window...
