Fan Recap for One Life to Live

From Michele Giusti, for About.com

Dorian visits Antonio at his loft (Her first visit there, she states "ooh, nice space!"). They discuss the marked bills. Dorian hadn't mentioned Antonio when she was arrested, so requests a favor. She wants a gun. Dorian explains it is for protection because she and her family are in danger and Antonio's quest to discover his identity could get all of them killed. She admits how Manual Sr. was abusive, and then tells Antonio a compelling story of how he had once burned her with a cigar, how she had left him without his knowing she was pregnant with his child, and how she knows things she has never told anyone.

Dorian mentions Adriana, and how Tico is protective of her, she then asks Antonio if he thinks Tico is trying to take their father's place in the family. When Antonio gives a certain long, focused look, Dorian gasps and even goes further to wonder if Tico may be abusive to Jessica the way Manual Santi Sr. was to her.

Before Tico came home, Jessica had snooped around and had founds 2 billfolds of cash in the desk. When Tico comes home, she acts happy to see him but hits him with a bunch of questions before he sits down. Tico, already upset, is obviously slightly annoyed at her but still kind. He finally says 'so many questions, Jessica!', then 'but being that you are a journalist I guess that I should expect that." Jessica replies, with arms folded, "no, being that I am you're wife maybe you should expect that."

Paul comes into Rodi's looking for a drink to maintain his buzz. Natalie convinces him to leave, tells him to meet her in the alley, and then lies about it to John.

Dorian begs Antonio to back off. He admits to being with it to the end.

Since Antonio is planning to escalate the violence, Dorian once again asks him for a gun. Antonio says he can't make and promises. Dorian leaves.

Tico admits to Jessica that he saw Antonio. He had warned Antonio not to come to their home to bother Jessica any more. Jessica says she forgives Tico for his mood. She complains how they don't get out much and that she had even asked Tico's employee Bertram of his whereabouts, and that Bertram had refused to answer. Tico tells Jessica that she has made him happy, that one day they will travel the world, and he will one day be able to express his love to her, in every way.

Natalie eavesdrops on John talking to his brother about Evangeline, his beautiful, smart, strong girlfriend, and how she will recover from the racial attack. Natalie takes off from Rodi's to meet Paul, who has been drinking in the alley. Michael confesses to John his is going to ask Marcy to marry him. John thinks it is great. He gets a call on a lead about the dirt-bag who attacked Evangeline, and takes off.

Marcie wants to call the police but Jen refuses. Jen admits she and Riley broke up over a misunderstanding about Paul. Jen thinks she will always eventually mess things up and that she is damaged goods. Marcie wants to know what Paul did to make Jen feel so worthless.

Natalie meets Paul in the alley. She tells Paul that Kelly wants her brother to leave her alone. Paul admits it was he who got his sister what she wanted when she couldn't go to her scum of a husband. Natalie wonders what Paul did to help Kelly. Paul, obviously out of friends, out of choices, and unable to admit the truth, teeters a bit in the look of a desperate man.

Once home, Dorian receives a package, it is a gun.
