One Life to Live Recap for Tuesday, May 14, 2002

At Llanfair

Niki is hugging Bo, when Ben arrives home, and Bo confronts Ben about what happened earlier between them.  Niki covers and tells Ben that Bo is there about Allison Perkins and Ben leaves the room.  Bo asks Niki why she stopped him from confronting Ben.  She tells Bo that she doesn’t want to make Ben any angrier. Bo tells her that Ben needs to get a hold of his temper.  Niki tells Bo they will work it out, and asks him to leave through the French doors.  She is so proud of herself because Bo was going to help her end Viki ’s marriage.

Ben walks back in with a copy of the Sun and asks where Bo went and what he wanted.  Niki says she needs to explain to him about Bo.  She needs Ben to understand what he walked in on, wasn’t what it looked like. Ben tells her it looked like Bo was trying to comfort her, and he wasn’t worried about it. He tells her he trusts her completely.

Later Niki fantasizes about having an affair with Bo.  Ben comes in and tells her he needs to fill in at Crossroads.  He asks her to come with him, but she says she can’t.  As soon as he leaves, she dismisses the staff and starts dancing a jig in excitement over being home alone for the first time without her jailers and she is going to party.

Carlotta’s Diner

At the diner, Carlotta attacks Keri about her debt!  Keri denies it and Carlotta shows her the collection notice. Carlotta has been saving it for just the right moment.  Keri demands to know where this notice came from, and having misunderstood Keri, Carlotta tells her from all of her charges on her credit cards. That is not what Keri meant.  Carlotta tells her it is a disease and she should seek help.

Antonio takes Keri aside and explains to her how it came about that Carlotta had this letter.  She tells Antonio that she is not $50K in debt.  She explains about her credit card being stolen and Antonio starts to chuckle at his mother’s expense.  Keri begins to wonder, out loud no less, how the letter made its way into his paper. As she starts to recall that day, she mentions RJ was there and she had to leave her office, leaving him alone. She tells Antonio she needs to leave.  Of course Carlotta cannot help but wonder where she is rushing off to a sale a Logan’s, she asks, but corrects herself and says Keri doesn’t do sales. Antonio tells her to stop it.  They prattle off back and forth at one another in Spanish.  He informs Carlotta it is not Keri’s fault. Of course she asks whose fault is it? (RJ, do you want to jump in here, soon?) And then ‘lo and behold Tea walks in.

At Common Grounds

Chad comes into the coffee shop to meet with RJ.  RJ offers him a job. Chad wonders if it is bartending or spying? RJ tells him it is strictly bartending, but offers to pay Chad well for other work.  Chad declines and leaves, and Nora walks up from behind RJ and wonders why RJ needs to have Keri followed.  RJ being RJ denies everything of course, and tries to change the subject by bringing up Lindsay.  Nora backs down.  Nora tells him she likes having her life back and she is happy.  Then she sees Troy.  RJ goads her some more about being friends with Dr. Twin, and tells Nora she should be thankful for the good doctor put Lindsay away. Nora goes over to get a refill on her coffee. Troy can’t even talk to her. Their small talk is uncomfortable and he is so uneasy he tells he about it and leaves.  Nora finds her cell phone and calls Dr. Rae!

In Las Vegas

Natalie stands outside Jen and Christian’s room yelling at Jen to let her in. Jen tries to throw Natalie out of her room, and Natalie denies she is there to cause trouble. She tells Jen she is there to warn them.  Natalie tells Jen that Al is there. Jen refuses to believe her.  She calls Max to prove it to Natalie once and for all. Max answers and when asked where Al was, Max tells Jen that Al is right there with him at Break Bar.  Jen throws Natalie out of their room and slams the door in her face!

Max confronts Al about what he is doing.  Max tells Al that he is taking him home before he does something he will regret.  Al refuses and tells Max he won’t go anywhere with him.  Al tells Max that Jen is about to marry Christian and he has to warn her and protect her.  Al tells him that Christian is cheating on Jen and he is no good for her.  Max then proceeds to tell Al he must leave.  He tells Al he is stalking Jen.  Al accuses Max of trying to ruin his life.  He goes ballistic.  He tells Max that he was a lousy father and he never wants to see him or have anything to do with him, and storms off.

Christian runs into Roxy. A Michael Jackson look-a-like dances in the background.  Sloan Carpenter walks by.  This is getting very weird folks! Poor Matthew.  Roxy tells Christian that for a price, she has something interesting to tell him.  Christian isn’t interested and turns her down. Then Christian sees an Elvis look-a-like playing a slot machine.  Elvis needs to leave to go get more money, so Christian walks up and plays the same slot machine.  Christian hits the big one.  Al watches from the doorway, and murmurs at Christian to enjoy himself with his winnings because he is going to lose something else. Al takes off.  As Christian is done getting instructions on how to pick up his winnings, he runs into Natalie. She tells him Al is there.

Roxy runs into Max, who is feeling very sorry for himself at the moment. She asks Maxamillion if he’ll buy her a drink?

In Jen and Christian’s room, Jen is planning a very seductive night for Christian, outfit to boot! She talks to herself about what all she has planned and there is a knock at the door.  Stripping down to almost nothing, readying herself for her man, and thinking he must have forgotten his key, she opens the door. Al is standing there and he smiles. (As if bucko!)

At Common Grounds

Keri storms in, demanding answers from RJ as to how her collection notice ended up in Carlotta’s hands. She tells RJ she knows how. (He just sits there, with those big puppy dog eyes, like who me? Gimme a break)  Keri is furious and he knows it. 

At Llanfair

Niki changes into Niki, yes Niki, and is really strutting her stuff, loud music, wild clothing, wild hair and make up, dancing like there is no tomorrow.  As she jumps up on the sofa and starts dancing very provocatively, Chad walks in.  “Mrs. Davidson?” he asks…

At the Manning Mansion

Todd asks Blair why she wasn’t at the Sun, and why she isn’t ready to leave. He asks her where the kids are and he asks her what she is doing. She tells him she is sitting there thinking about her son, the one she lost in Mexico. Todd stupidly asks her is she is talking about the kid she lost. (Uh duh? McFly…where did we get you from?)

Blair remembers never seeing him, never holding him and she baits Todd along. She tells him he will never understand how she felt hearing her son crying only to be told she was imagining it. Todd tries to interrupt her and tells her to hurry and go get Jack so they can leave. She tells Todd it must have been real hard to tell her that her baby died. He once again tries to downplay the situation and tells her to stop thinking about the past. “The past,” Blair says, “I don’t think so!” Todd doesn’t understand why she is so hung up on it now.

Blair tells Todd he was jealous that she was having Max’s baby and as she begins to weaken, she demands that Todd tell her what he did. She yells at him and promptly calls him a bastard, and she tells him she knows. Blair tells Todd that he told her that her baby was dead and that was a lie. Todd just stands there. He tells her she is obviously upset (Gee ‘ya think?) and he needs her to calm down. He still denies everything. He tries to blame it on Paloma.

Blair really unleashes then. She tells Todd she knows about David Vickers, Gabrielle, Paloma and now Alex. She tells him she now knows what kind of monster he is. She tells him for one moment in his sorry life, she wants him to tell her what he did. He finally admits it. He admits to doing everything. Blair is devastated.

Todd tries desperately to talk his way out of what he has done, and tells her that she has always told him, that she admitted long ago, she would forgive him no matter what he had done. He tells her she has everything now, and all she has to do is forgive him. Blair stands there in silence.

As the end credits roll, Sloan Carpenter (AKA Roy Thinnes) is there to scare Matthew even more. Once again, Matthew sees dead people!  Stay tuned…
