teardrops.gif (387 bytes)  A Sad Farewell to Grace  teardrops.gif (387 bytes)

Is Asa really to blame for Grace's untimely death?
Or was it just an unfortunate accident?

Dateline: 11/05/99

 

This past week on One Life to Live was quite dramatic as we saw Grace's tragic ending. It was moving to see all the men in Grace's life who loved her so dearly trying desperately to save her life. What a sad ending to such a beautiful and "graceful" lady.

So what's next for Kevin? Will he be the one to seek revenge on Asa, or will Ben and Sam beat him to it? For the Davidson/Rappaport's it's like losing their sister all over, but this time for good. It was only a few months ago when the family was reunited for the first time since Grace's kidnapping so many years ago. Grace's death will leave a long standing and painful impact on many citizens of Llanview.

Now the feud has been refueled and the war has begun between the Rappaports and the Buchanans...who will survive?

About.com Poll
Who will be the one to seek revenge on Asa?

Kevin, he will never forgive Asa for taking away his fiancee.
Ben, he will use his past mob connections to get even.
Sam, he will try all legal channels to see that Asa pays.
Will, he will use what he has learned from Asa and turn the tables back on him.
It doesn't matter, I'm glad to see Grace off the show.

In order to figure this out, here's a breakdown of the people who's lives will forever be impacted by Grace's death. Some of this is fact, and some of it is speculation on what will perhaps happen because of Grace's death.

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) KEVIN:   The most obvious and most affected by Grace's death is Kevin; who's heart will forever be broken. He will also feel like he let Grace down by not saving her and keeping her safe. It will be quite some time as well before Kevin will even consider forgiving Asa on what he has done to Grace. The only light in Kevin's life may be from a very unexpected source....his ex-wife Cassie. (There have been rumors the character will be recast, possibly by the end of November.)

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) BEN:   For Ben, Grace's death will bring up more of his past and ultimately trouble for him and Viki. Skye will use this tragedy in Ben's life to wiggle her way back into his life. In an attempt to seek revenge on Asa, Ben may turn also be forced to turn to Skye for help in seeing it through. It looks like Ben's sorrow will be so strong he will even reject comfort from his true love, Viki.

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) SAM: Grace's other brother Sam will also seek revenge on Asa, but first through legal channels. He will demand from Bo that Asa be arrested for causing her death. Sam will also plead with his son Will to open up his eyes to the man he is working for.

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) WILL:   Will has been busy learning a lot from his boss Asa, including all of his devious ways. So it may actually be Will to cause trouble for Asa. Will not only lost his aunt, but he sees how much pain his own father is in now because of her death. The only stopping point in Will's plan may come from Jessica. Will may be too afraid to cause friction between them now, especially since they have become intimate again.

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) RAE:   The one to share most of Grace's last moments was Rae Cummings. She will be haunted by her memory for some time to come. Rae struggled through the raging flood waters as best she could to keep Grace alive, but she was unsuccessful. Luckily, Rae was able to forgive Grace for her affair with her husband before she died. A big mystery is still in the works with Rae and Daniel, however. In those endearing last moments between the two women, Rae revealed she had to find Daniel because of someone else. So who is this mystery woman? Perhaps a daughter? Pine Valley may hold the key, as Rae sets off there shortly after Grace's funeral.

redbullet.gif (139 bytes) BO:   Finally, the one most caught between the Rappaport/Buchanan feud in none other than Bo. On one hand being the police commissioner, Bo must follow the evidence surrounding Grace's death. He knows Asa was with her at the boathouse, but will he believe Asa didn't intentionally lock her in and cause her harm. So on the other hand, with the Buchanan blood running so thick through his veins, will Bo turn his back on his own father or not?

Grace will be missed by many in Llanview, and her death will not be forgotten. Now it's a matter of what will happen now? All the people from Grace's life must learn to go on now without her, including Kevin. Asa is going to show up at Grace's funeral, and he may be very surprised to find what and who he has lost. Now it's your turn to share your thoughts. Cast your vote now, and be a part of this week's opinion poll.
