One Life to Live Recap for Friday, December 7, 2001

Todd and Gabrielle

Todd and Gabby are outside the house talking and she tells him she knows he killed Asa and she and Max are not taking the blame for it.  He tells her that he didn’t kill Asa.  She says she knows he did because he hated Asa.  Todd says he hates everybody.  She tells him that if he tries to put the blame on she and Max for Asa’s death, she will go to Blair and tell her all about how Todd tried to set her up for the murder to go down with Max.  Todd tells Gabby that if she does anything to mess with him, he will tell Max about she and Asa being in on the plan to set Max up from the beginning.  She lies and tells him Max already knows, but he doesn’t believe her and goes to call Max.  She confesses that Max doesn’t know and they are at a stalemate.  Todd tells her that it’s obvious that they can both hurt each other so it’s a standoff.  Just then Viki comes out looking for Todd and overhears part of their conversation.  They make up a story about what they were saying and Viki tells him not to waste his time talking to Gabby because she’s not worth it.  Viki goes back inside and Gabby reminds Todd that if he crosses her, she can ruin his life with Blair.

Back inside the house

Viki and Cassie are chatting and Cassie tells her that she hopes Blair is ok…she feels she still needs time to deal with the baby’s death.  Ben and Sam are talking…Sam says that there must have been something good about Asa since there are so many people who loved him.  Ben says that Renee saw the good in Asa and if she saw it, then it must have been there.  Sam says it’s too bad that Ben didn’t get more time to get to know Asa and find out what everyone saw in him that was good.  Ben agreed, but says there’s nothing he can do about it now. 

Andrew and Cassie have a moment alone where he tells her she looks wonderful and she says the same about him.

Blair and Addie

Blair makes her way up to the room where she heard the baby crying.  She hears it again and is about to go into the room when Addie pops up.  Blair is so happy she could come and Addie says that she wanted to come so badly that one of the nuns brought her.  Blair says she thought she heard a baby crying and Addie says it was probably her crying because she cries when she’s happy and she’s so happy today.  Blair accepts that and heads back downstairs.  She meets Todd at the bottom of the stairs and tells him that she thought she heard a baby crying and went upstairs, but it was Addie crying.  Todd is relieved because he thought she saw the baby.  Blair tells Todd she can’t marry him when she’s still hurting so badly about the baby and he tells her to trust him.  She agrees and they go into the living room to be married.

The Wedding

Unique doesn’t quite describe it…lol…but Andrew starts off by saying that they’ve been there many times and he starts saying the traditional things when Todd interrupts him.  He tells Andrew that those words are nice, but they don’t mean anything to him.  Andrew tells him he is welcome to say his own vows and Todd says he has nothing to say.  Blair gives him a look and he decides to speak up.  He says really beautiful vows, telling her that from the minute he met her he knew that she was someone he could be around.  They showed a really nice montage of Todd and Blair flashbacks with a song, which I believe was sung by Kassie DePaiva…very beautiful.  Todd tells her that when she’s around him he doesn’t feel so “nuts” and that she makes everything right for him.  He tells her that he knows he has hurt her before and he probably will again.  Starr speaks up and says she won’t let that happen.  Todd tells Starr, “Shut up I’m trying to marry your mother.”  He tells Blair that he hopes that even if he hurts her, she will remember that he loves her.  Blair is so touched and she says her vows, saying that being with him she has experienced some of the highest highs and also the lowest lows of her life.  Todd tells her that his sister is there so maybe they should just talk about the highs.  Viki smiles.  Blair says that they have something special and no matter what she has always loved him.  Andrew asks Todd if he takes Blair and he doesn’t say “I do”…Andrew says he’ll get back to Todd.  He asks Blair the same thing and she doesn’t answer either.  Neither one trusts that the other will say “I do.”  Todd says, “Well, do you?”  And Blair says, “Well, do you?”  Then after a very long pause (and a commercial) they say “I do” together.  Everyone breathes a sigh of relief and they put on the rings saying “With this ring……” in unison also.  Andrew finally pronounces them married.

Jenn and Cris

Cris tells Jenn that everything he did and told her was a lie.  She doesn’t understand.  She wants to know why he saved he life if he doesn’t even care about her any more.  He tells her about Keith being a killer and wanting to hurt Jenn to get to Cris.  She reminds him of all the awful things he said to her and he says it hurt him so much to say those things, but he had to protect her and getting away from her was the only way.  He tells her that he loves her and that never changed and she starts to believe him and then he pulls out the necklace that she had thrown away and told her that he kept it with him all the time.  It was like having her with him.  She said that proves that he cares about her if he kept the necklace.  He asks her to forgive him and they kiss, just as Al opens the door and sees them.

At the police station

Hank finds Max hanging around trying to snoop by the officer’s desk.  Max tells Hank that he thinks he can shed some light on Asa’s murder and Hank tells him to sit down, humoring him, and that he’ll bring him a pad and pen so he can write down his ideas. 

Bo keeps playing the tape of Max and Gabby over and over.  He knows something isn’t right.  He plays it for Hank and Hank doesn’t hear anything strange.  Bo says that the background noise in every sentence is different.  Hank doesn’t hear it, but they agree to get an audio specialist to listen to it to see if it’s been doctored.  The specialist listens and says he can’t tell without taking the tape to the lab…so he does and Bo is being very impatient waiting for the results.  He doesn’t want to issue a warrant for Max and Gabby’s arrest before he knows about the tape.

Max is outside and finally gets a look at the cop’s computer screen, where he reads that they are making warrants for his and Gabby’s arrest for Asa’s murder.  Gabby comes back to the police station and Max tells her they are in a lot of trouble.  They sneak out.
