Fan Recap for One Life to Live

"I've stolen Cristian Vega's life..., I've stolen his wife..." What else could that mean, Natalie? Natalie tosses the book and screams out that she doesn't care what the book says. She KNOWS her husband. She knows how he walks, talks, and breathes. There's no way anyone could fake that. THIS MEANS NOTHING! NOTHING! It means nothing...John pulls her into his arms to calm her hysteria, and Evangeline is watching the whole thing from outside the window. Natalie breaks free from his arms and snatches up her coat and purse. Where are you going? John asks. Back to my husband, where do you think? Don't, John says, Not until we discover the truth. I already KNOW the truth! Natalie screams. Fine, John says, then give me the sample if only to prove me wrong. NO! I already know the truth! She storms away. He picks up his cell phone to make a call, but Evangeline enters and calls out his name. He turns to her and asks her how long she's been there. Long enough to see that Nat was upset. What's going on? I just told her that her husband may not be who he says he is. Evangeline wants to know if he discovered anything new. He shows her the entries made in the black book. Evangeline is shocked by what she reads. She tells John that even though she told him that HE couldn't be the one to help Nat, this was BIG. If what he says is true, then Cristian will have died all over again. But on the other hand, she has to know the truth....everyone does. So, you're in? John asks. Yeah, I'm in.

Flash to Kelly...She desperately tries to reach Kevin for the umpteenth time to no avail, and Duke enters and makes a reference to some off-screen conversation that he an d Kelly had. Kelly frantically says that she's tried everything to stop Kevin from going after the baby, but she's afraid that Kevin will not stop until he gets him. Adriana urges Duke not to antagonize Kevin any further. Kelly agrees, apologizing for getting him involved in the first place. She says she just figured that maybe Duke could work on talking to Asa while she continues to try and talk some sense into Kevin. Duke almost scoffs at her suggestion. What? Me? Talk to Asa, about giving up a Buchanan baby, to a CHANDLER?

After a few back and forth words, he agrees to try his best. "Duke!" comes a loud voice, "you're not going to do anything!" They turn to see Asa. Kelly tries to convince Asa that the baby is in his rightful place, and she would never have given him up if she thought otherwise. Asa turns on her, and a much stronger and wiser Kelly is ready for him. He asks her how she could just turn the baby over to the Chandlers? She counters that she tried to do just the opposite. How, by sticking it to your husband? She tells him that she tried to do EVERYTHING she could to hold on to her husband, including giving him a child by any means necessary, and for what? So he could turn her away from the baby's life and treat her like trash? Besides, Asa always made them feel like they'd fail him if they didn't produce an heir. Asa tells her not to turn the tables on HIM. HE didn't tell her to go and steal a baby! Duke starts to intervene, but Kelly stops him, assuring her stepson that Asa has nothing on her. Asa asks her what happened to her? She was supposed to be the perfect wife, but she turned out to be nothing but a trashy tramp like all of the Cramer women she comes from. Duke is ticked off now, and Kelly tells Asa to buzz off in so many words, before propelling Adriana in the direction of the door and leaving.

Duke is left alone to face off with Grandpa. He tells Asa that he's listened to him long enough and it's the elder man's turn to be quiet. Duke goes on to reprimand Asa for the abusive way he's spoken to a woman in Duke's presence for the second time now. Asa, stubborn old coot that he is, justifies his actions with the old, "Family protects family" thing.

LOONVIEW TEEN BEAT: WHO'S YOUR DADDY? Pt. 2:

More bickering is going on, people. JR and Adam are staking their claim on the baby, and now Kevin is on the other end, staking his. He tells the Chandlers that flesh and blood alone doesn't make a father, (UM, we ALREADY know that that's YOUR belief, Kevin!) and the law is on his side. Either JR hands over his son, or he goes to jail with the rest of the posse. Weeellll...THAT doesnt sit too well with the Chandlers, and more hysterical outbursts from Babe takes place, and more posturing between the men follow. Kevin and Babe exchange words, but in the end, Kevin gets the child. He allows Babe to say goodbye, then takes a parting comment from an angry Adam. If you think this is over, think again. Kevin goes outside, peeks up at the sky, then tells the baby, "Come on, son, let's go home." (COME ON! Reality check, writers!)
