One Life to Live Recap for Tuesday, March 5, 2002

Capricorn

Max catches Jen and Cris in a compromising position and sits them down for a little chat. He tells them that Al doesn’t blame them for his accident – and neither does Max. He thanks them for being such good friends to Al and for giving him hope. Jen rushes off to find Al but Max asks Cris to stay behind. He warns Cris to stay away from Jen so she can help Al. Cris agrees even though he doesn’t think Max is doing his son any favors.

Roxy’s House

Roxy and Alison are gloating over the success of their plan. Alison tries to convince her to lay off the drinking until their plan succeeds. Viki shows up wanting to discuss Roxy’s ‘condition.’ Roxy tries to get rid of her but finally lets Viki in.

Viki encourages Roxy to take advantage of the services at Troy’s free clinic if she cannot afford treatment for her condition. Roxy doesn’t trust those doctors. Viki says she is concerned about Jessica having to go through another medical crisis after Viki’s brush with breast cancer. Roxy insists Jessica should be with her – it will give her a chance to get to know her daughter. Viki gives Roxy Jessica’s school medical reports and asks for Natalie’s. Roxy doesn’t have them. Viki presses Roxy about the baby switch. She is curious as to why Roxy didn’t know the babies were different. Roxy claims she was drinking a lot at the time.

Alison calls Roxy and tells her to get rid of Viki. Roxy tells Viki she is expecting a guest and ushers her out. Alison warns Roxy that she had better be careful around Viki but Roxy is sure that she has them all fooled.

Break Bar

Al believes that breaking up Jessica and Seth is a crummy thing to do. Natalie forces him to help her by holding his secret over his head. Al asks Jessica to give him a ride home. Seth confronts Natalie about her sudden friendship with Al. Natalie pretends she has turned over a new leaf and is letting Seth go. She confesses that she still loves him but she wants him to be happy. Natalie puts on a brave face and tells Seth they can be friends.

Carriage House

Al wonders if Jessica has bad memories of the Carriage House because Natalie lived there while she and Seth were conning Jessica. Al thinks Jessica is letting Seth pull the wool over her eyes a second time. Jessica is convinced that Seth is on the up and up this time. Al plants seeds of doubt in her mind – why hasn’t she met his family? Jessica says they are taking it slow and wonders why Al is sounding like her father all of a sudden. Al says he just wants her to be sure of what she is doing – because he is her friend. Jessica tells him to mind his own business and she leaves.

Break Bar

Jessica returns and asks to speak to Seth – alone. Natalie wanders away but eavesdrops on their conversation. Jessica says she has to finish a paper for school and can’t spend the weekend with him after the concert. Seth understands. Natalie is pleased by the turn of events.

Carriage House

Al stands up by the steps and is nearly discovered by Jen. She is distracted and still worried about her mother so she heads up to bed. Natalie calls to thank Al for getting Jessica to cancel her trip. Al thinks he is off the hook but Natalie informs him that they are just getting started. Al hangs up on her.

Nora’s House

Lindsay and Nora continue to argue over Troy’s whereabouts when Sam enters the picture. He wants to know why Lindsay isn’t in Paris marrying Troy. Lindsay blames it all on Nora and goads Nora to tell Sam about Troy’s plan – and Nora’s knowledge of it.

Nora tries to get rid of Lindsay and accuses her of being involved in her memory loss. Lindsay tells Sam that Nora was involved in Troy’s plan. Nora denies she was Troy’s accomplice, but admits she knew he didn’t love Lindsay and was trying to get her confession – to clear Colin’s name. Lindsay says Troy did it all for Nora – he is in love with her. Nora admits that Troy does have feelings for her and that he kissed her on New Year’s Eve.

Lindsay presses Nora to tell Sam what happened at the cemetery. Nora is appalled that Lindsay knows about the cemetery and demands to know what she has done to Troy. Sam tells Lindsay to leave. She does, but leaves the door open as Sam grills Nora about her relationship with Troy. Nora admits they kissed at the cemetery. Lindsay smiles smugly and leaves. Was he the only one doing the kissing? Sam wants to know. Nora can’t answer so Sam leaves! 

The Funhouse

Troy is convinced he is going to die while chained to the wheel. Lindsay throws water in his face and taunts him about her visit with Nora. She threatens to leave Troy in the funhouse forever. Troy would rather die than tell Lindsay about the tape. He thinks it will be sweet revenge for Lindsay to spend the rest of her life fearing that the tape will be discovered. Lindsay hints that she will harm Nora if Troy doesn’t cooperate.

Line of the Day

Roxy (to Alison): This concern for me has made me all warm and fuzzy inside like I’m about to cough up a fur ball.
