WKAYDEE-TV presents.. "Kaydee: On Location"


Well, folks, I'm back. Here's to an episode that puts Six Flags to shame.
Today, I advise you to buckle up your seat belts and prepare to take a journey through a Haunted Mansion, a prison Superbroom body shop, Twin Peaks, a reverse psychology session, and a confrontation with the green-eyed monster on the Loonview Teen Beat set. Ready? Then step up to the gate, get your tickets stamped, and let's go on the Great Adventure!

ANTONIO/KERI: Hunks & Photos:


We open with Antonio engaged in an intense bench-press workout. (Without a shirt, I might add! I was certainly drooling!)

Anyway, Keri sneaks up behind him and covers his eyes. He smiles, knowing it's her and he asks her teasingly if she's here to get a workout of her own. She replies, "No, I'm here to tell you how wrong you were."
Antonio is a little offset by her remark, (probably because he thought the conversation would lead back to RJ), and is instantly relieved when she pulls out a photo envelope.

She tells him that the roll of film in the old camera did indeed develop, contrary to his remark that it wouldn't, and Rae looks fantastic in the photos. Antonio is shocked, but he smiles as he looks at the pictures.
He and Keri share an intimate kiss as she scurries off to find Rae.

Antonio finishes his workout, then spots a forgotten photo on the floor. He picks up the photo of a younger Rae and Alan Quartermaine, and he leaves the gym.


STATESVILLE: THE WITCH VS. THE DOC:


Weeell, folks, it looks like the Superbroom is showing a little life these days. Loonsey's made a new friend, Looney Tune Animaniac Perkins, and a whole lotta schemin's goin' on! What will happen when The Broom meets Dr. Troy? Let's go to the recap....

After being informed by the prison guard lady, (again, what the heck IS HER NAME?) that she had a visitor, Lindsay faces the visitor window, and is unpleasantly shocked to see Troy on the opposite side. She asks him if he's come to gloat. No, he's not there to gloat. He's there because of something she wants, but is never going to get. Naturally, Loonsey Goon asks him what that something is that she wants, and he humors her.

She wants to cause trouble for him and Nora, and he warns her to back off of that intention. She, of course, plays innocent, and tells him that both of them are the furthest thing from her mind. Oh, really? Troy says, Is that why Lindsay called him the other day? Or why she said the nasty things she said to Nora when she bumped into her?

Okay, folks, Loonsey pulls her "poor me" act once again, telling Troy, in her best, "I'm-the-victim-here" voice,

"Bumped into her? Nora set it up so that she would run into me!" (Oh, sure, everyone just HAS to get a touch of Lindsay. She's so speeeecial!)

Troy, annoyed with Lindsay, dismissively tells her to stay the hell out of their lives and he turns to leave. Predictably, Lindsay stops him with a snide remark. How long does he think he can keep hiding from Nora who he is and what he's done?

Troy looks a little disturbed, only Lindsay didn't catch the guilty look on his face. He composes himself, and turns to face her. He asks her what she's talking about, and Lindsay tells him that she's referring to the ghastly, disciplined way that he seduces women and the convincing way that he makes them believe that he loves them to get what he wants from them before he zooms in for the kill.

Troy gives her an annoyed look, but she's not fazed. She rambles on about how long a list of women he's victimized he must have. Isn't he worried that one of them might come back to even the score? Troy is slightly rattled by her question, but he warns her once again to stay away from him and Nora, and then he turns to leave, promising that she'll never see him again. When he's gone, Lindsay promises that he most definitely will see her again, and he can bet on it. Meanwhile, on the other side of town, a cab driver and a mystery woman holding Troy's address on a piece of paper, briefly discuss what Troy's reaction will be when he sees her...

LOONSEY AND LOONEY: THE PSYCHOS' GREAT ESCAPE PLAN!!!

Later, Allison finds Loonsey leaning against the wall, hurt. Allison asks her if she's okay, but Loonsey tells her to go away, but Allison presses her to give in. Lindsay tells her that Troy ruined her life, and now he's living with the woman she hates most in the world. Allison sympathizes with her, and then plants an idea in Loonsey's head...

"There are ways to get out of here." Lindsay asks her what she means, and Allison grins mischievously and says, "There are special ways to get out of here!" Then she turns and leaves a baffled Lindsay to herself.

NORA/HANK/TROY: PERSONAL COURT IS IN SESSION!

Nora sits at a table in Troy's loft intensely writing something down on a piece of paper when Hank walks in and surprises her. She asks him what he's doing there, and he says he was looking for Troy, as he is serving as a witness in one of Hank's cases. He notices Nora's intensity in the paper, and he questions her about it. She lets Hank in on the intense physical fitness morning she and Troy shared, and she tells him that she's writing down the recipe for her favorite ice-cream dessert.

"So you're going to clog the man's arteries as payback?" Hank teases, then says, "And you're sharing it with him? Whoa! You've got it bad. Are you in love with Troy?" (Umm...When exactly did that become YOUR business, Mr. DA?)

Nora pretty much tells him the same thing in her loving way, but then she nervously spits out some sketchy details about her feelings. She has some, and they're pretty strong, and well,..oh, what the heck? Yes, she thinks she's falling in love with Troy. Hank thinks she must be crazy, right?
"No," Hank says, "I think he's pretty okay. He's nothing like his brother, and he sure went out of his way to get the truth out of Lindsay for you."
Nora corrects him, saying that he also tried to clear his brother's name. Hank flatly reiterates, "He did it for you, Nora."

Nora concedes, her eyes becoming deeply engrossed in a thought. Hank is concerned, and he asks her what's wrong. Nora confides that she's falling for a guy she really knows nothing about. Hank tells her that she probably never will. Nora is perturbed by that comment, and she presses Hank to explain himself. Hank reminds her that his past is directly intertwined with Colin, and if what he thinks of Troy is correct, then Troy wouldn't want to subject Nora to any more memories of Colin. Nora can be assured in the fact that Troy has it bad for her, too.

Later, Troy enters his loft to find an ice-cream sundae sitting on his table, neatly packed in a clear cold cup and a dome lid, a plastic spoon lovingly decorating the showpiece. Troy takes a taste, and is pleased with the results. He sets the sundae down and reads a note that's on his table. He smiles and heads to answer a knock at his door. Nora is there, and he happily greets her.

"I take it that you're the dessert fairy?" She accepts the responsibility, and they kiss. A few minutes later, he notices that she's preoccupied, and she confesses that she is disturbed by the fact that she knows nothing about him. He tries to assure her that not knowing everything about a person all at once is one of the exciting things about new relationships. Nora is not buying that. She spits out a couple of personal details about herself, then cues him to do the same. One of the things she mentioned of herself is that she is very impatient, and she wants to know everything about him right now. Troy chuckles at her frankness, then tells her that she already knows his most intimate secret...he's a stamp collector.

Now she chuckles, telling him that she knows there's more to him than that. Why doesn't he start with Africa? He tells her that he went there to study to become a doctor, and now he's a doctor. See? No excitement there.

A knock on Troy's door interrupts Nora's next statement, and Troy excuses himself, telling her that they'll resume their conversation when he gets rid of whoever's at the door. Well, THAT doesn't happen, because his visitor is a pretty young thing who excitedly greets Troy, and he excitedly greets her back, with a rather tight embrace that annoys Nora!

LLANFAIR: THE HAUNTED MANSION!:

Be afraid..Be veeerrry afraid. The lady of the house has been invaded by an alter body-snatcher!

And MAN is she a madwoman! Niki is on the loose, man! After telling Natalie that she should be very afraid, and in her further efforts to get rid of Rex, she goes into a whole story about how she's concerned that Natalie might be losing her mind. Natalie is baffled, of course, and she denies that possibility. She would know if she were going insane.

Niki tells Natalie about her DID syndrome, and Natalie tells her that she knows all about Niki's past, and it must have been awful.
"Oh, gracious! It was worse than awful!" Niki exclaims, in her overly-exaggerated Viki impersonation. (Tell me something people. Is it me, or is everyone in Viki's life deliberately overlooking the obvious reason for Viki's strange behavior?)

Natalie is startled by her mama's outburst, and she listens as Niki tells her that mental illness is hereditary. Which means, in short, that Natalie is already pre-disposed to the syndrome. Natalie doesn't argue the scientific facts, but argues that she personally is suffering any problems with Viki's past.

Niki tells her; "Oh, but you are. I've been noticing signs of splitting in you. And that's why I feel that Rex being here is an undesirable situation. He's a constant reminder of your horrible past with Roxanne, and underlying stress is a very strong risk factor in causing predisposed DID persons to split into multiple personalities.

Natalie defends herself and her brother, saying that both she and Jessie want to get to know him, and she won't punish him for what might happen. She won't ask Rex to leave, and she begs Niki not to either.

Out in the hall, Rex and Ben are conversing. Rex tells ben that he thinks he's getting in the way around here, and Ben assures him that he's not. Rex then singles out Niki, and Ben tells him not to worry about her, he'll talk to her.

He knocks on the door and walks in just as Niki is about to convince Nat to get Rex out. Ben tells the ladies that he was just talking to Rex, and Rex told him some funny stories about games he and Naddie used to play. He make Natalie laugh as she recalls the memories, and Niki is rambling negatively about Rex, in an effort to keep her point to Natalie alive, but Nat and Ben act as if she's not even in the room. Niki finally bursts, and tells Ben that she was just wrapping up a conversation with her daughter. Although there was a nasty edge to her comment, no one noticed it. Ben excuses himself, but the damage is done. Natalie stands her ground where Rex is concerned, and tells Niki that she's glad ben interrupted when he did. She'll read up on DID, and she'll take every necessary precaution, but she won't get rid of her brother.

Ben returns as Nat leaves, and Niki gets rid of him politely. When he leaves, she desperately seeks for a way out of the marriage, and she comes up with an idea to get Ben's blood boiling. She cuts out some magazine alphabets and pastes them to a sheet of typing paper, pretending that Allison Perkins sent them a threatening letter.

LOONVIEW TEEN BEAT: REVELATIONS!

Jen and Cris are relieved to see that they both received "A's" for their grades on the papers they had to turn in after their Vegas trip. They walk over to the student union, where they run into Chad. He's all psyched up about the concert they'd planned to attend. Jen and Cris are still planning to go, right?

Both Jen and Cris excitedly reply that they are. Chad happily tells them that after months of chasing her, Natalie has finally agreed to go out with him. Cris is ecstatic, but Jen's blue eyes turn green with the glow of jealous rage at the mention of Natalie's name. Cris notices her anger, and asks her if he missed something.(DUH???) She's saved by Rae Cummings' untimely arrival. Rae tells Cris that she has to discuss his grade. Her tone of voice tells him that it isn't good news. She reminds him that she was adamant in her instructions to every student to submit a thorough, detailed bibliography with their paper. Cris says he did submit one, and he flips through the pages, only to find out that he didn't.

"Oh, man! I forgot to print it out. It's in my comp..Oh, no! My hard drive crashed, Everything's gone."

He suggests to her to allow him to re-do his bibliography, and she concurs, only if he can turn it in tomorrow morning. Agreed, Cris tells her. He rushes over to tell Jen the bad news. He can't go with her to the concert. Maybe she can go alone? He explains the problem, and Jen quickly suggests that she stay home with him. Chad is disappointed, but holds on to the sliver of hope that he still has Natalie. (NOT!) She's called to cancel. He makes a few phone calls and later finds Jen solo, and he tells her that he managed to sell the tickets at a profit. She teasingly accuses him of being a scalper, then confesses that Natalie going made her uncomfortable anyway.

Natalie is always hanging around Cris, needing hugs and stuff, and Jen doesn't like it.

(Well, if ya think you don't like that, prissy girl, try THIS on for size!)

Flash over to Natalie, whose sitting at a computer in the library researching DID. Enter Cris, who comes over and asks her what she's doing....

                   KERI/RAE: Compromising Photos??

Keri excitedly finds Rae and tells her proudly that the old camera Rae gave her still had a roll of film in it, and Keri took the liberty of getting them developed. An unsuspecting Rae is shocked when Keri tells her that the pictures came out beautifully. Rae jokes that everyone in those photos must have big hair, and Keri invites her to take a look at them for herself. She's totally freaked out when Rae starts shredding the photos over the trash can.

Attention, folks! Six Flags Llanview is now closed. Please exit carefully and thanks for visiting with Kaydee on location! Tune in tomorrow for our continuing coverage.
