Twin Peaks General
Hospital The clicking of the clock in the waiting
room sounds like a loud drum in Natasha's
ear as she waits for news on Sophie.
After her daughter was shot in a spray of bullets at the Pink Roses launch in
Maui, Natasha had Sophie flown back to Twin Peaks so she could be with friends,
family, and a doctor that Natasha trusts, which is Shane.
As soon as they
arrived in Twin Peaks, Shane
immediately started to look after Sophie, and now, Natasha is waiting to hear
some news about her daughter. She can't help but shake this sinking feeling, however,
even though, she is trying to stay positive.
"I I wish Cory
was there," she whispers to herself as she opens her phone and looks
at a picture of her, Cory and Sophie from a few years earlier. "You would
be strong for our daughter, Cory. Just make sure you do me a favor, okay? And
make sure that she stays here with me. I'm I'm not ready to lose her, not
yet."
A tear falls down her cheek as she looks at the picture again
and she runs her finger over Sophie's face. "My beautiful baby girl,"
she says as another tear falls down her cheek. "When you pull through this,
I will do everything in my power to ensure you and I get back on solid ground.
This fighting, it will end. We will become the family that we should be."
She swipes the pictures on her phone and then sees a picture of herself, Robbie,
and Bob.
"Oh Daddy," she cries to the picture. "You and Cory, you have to
ensure that Sophie doesn't die. I I can't lose my baby girl. I can't!"
The Pink Flamingo at the River
Rock Casino Donovan
sits at a table with a light breakfast in front of him. He wanted to grab a quick
bite to eat before heading into Robertson Enterprises for the day, but his mind
is really on the events that transpired the night before; he and Sergio
had a drink, where Sergio admitted that Lukas
had reached out to Simona
to see if and when he was going back to Mexico. Donovan told Sergio that he had
no idea what Lukas was thinking, and then Lukas arrived at the restaurant, where
he and Sergio had a heated exchange.
"Why can't anything be simple
around here?" Donovan asks himself as he takes a sip of his coffee. "Lukas,
suddenly, wants us to get back together after months of being at odds? It doesn't
make sense."
"Talking to yourself?" Lukas asks with a sly
grin as he comes up to the table, after he saw his estranged husband in the restaurant.
"Lukas? What are you doing here?"
"By the looks of
it, the same thing as you, I wanted to get some breakfast before I spend the afternoon
with Olly."
"That sounds nice."
"You're welcome
to join us if you have nothing else to do."
"I am afraid I can't,"
Donovan tells him as Lukas sits across from him. "I have to get to the office;
I have a million things on my desk."
"Ah, well, another time
then?"
"What is this, Lukas?" Donovan asks him quickly.
"What?"
"This, between you and me right now?"
Donovan asks him again. "For months, you have blamed me for Jasper
kidnapping Olly, and now, because I'm seeing someone new, someone who is honest,
caring, and hot as hell, you are trying to reconnect with me? What gives?"
Lukas uneasily chuckles back to him. "Uh, well, I guess us working together
in Mexico to save our son from our former nanny has made me realize that we are
a good team, Donovan. Is it so bad that I want my husband?"
"It's
just it's too little, too late, Lukas," Donovan looks back at him sternly.
"In fact, I have something for you."
Lukas arches his eyebrow
as Donovan pulls out an envelope from his briefcase. "These are for you."
"What are they?"
"The divorce papers," Donovan
looks at him. "I signed them; I suggest you do the same because, Lukas, we
are over. For good this time."
*** At
another table, Robin
sits with a large latte at a table as her mind is racing about the fact that she
recently overheard Antonio
talking on the phone about Cory's plane crash. When she confronted him about what
she heard, Antonio claimed that he had hired a PI to look into the crash to see
if he could uncover any more details on the crash, which he didn't uncover, which
is why he didn't tell her about it. While the story makes sense, she can't help
but wonder if there was something more than he isn't telling. She just has this
feeling in the pit of her stomach that something more is going on.
"You
look a million miles away," Antonio tells his fiancé as he approaches
her table. "Good thoughts, I hope?"
"Antonio, good morning,"
Robin replies to him as she takes a sip of her latte. "I guess I do have
a lot on my mind."
Antonio sits next to her, wondering if he has
done enough to cover his basis with what Robin heard on the phone. "I hope
that this isn't about you and I? I hope that you and I are in a good place?"
Robin sighs back to him. "I'd like to think so," Robin admits back
to him. "But I guess I have to know something."
"I'll tell
you anything you want," Antonio tells her. "You mean the world to me."
"Then be honest with me," Robin looks back at him with intent. "Is
there something else you're not telling me? You already kept the fact that you
had Cory's plane crash investigated; what else are you hiding from me?"
Antonio gulps as he looks back at her, forcing a smile on his face. "Absolutely
nothing," he tells her. "You know everything else there is to know,
I promise."
Robin finds herself nodding back to him. "Okay,
I'm going to believe you, but I hope that you're being honest with me, Antonio.
Because I won't have my fiancé lying to me, that is something I will not
tolerate."
*** Tyler
sits at the bar of the restaurant having some breakfast before he plans on heading
into Robertson Enterprises. His mind is thinking about the previous night when
he held an emergency board meeting at the company to see if Victoria
should have a position at the company; to his, and Leah's
surprise, Paige
voted in favor of Victoria being brought into the mix. Thankfully, however, Madeline
was able to come to his place and make him feel comfortable.
"Tyler,
hi," a voice calls out from behind him. He turns around and sees Kim
moving up to him.
"Morning," he says back to her. "My news
feed was filled with the drama that happened at the launch in Maui; how are you
doing?"
"I'm fine," Kim tells him. "We are still waiting
to hear about Sophie; she was shot. I'm just here to get some breakfast for Natasha
and Robbie while we wait to hear about her."
"For what it's
worth, I'm sorry that this happened. I didn't want your launch to be a success,
for obvious reasons, but I didn't want anyone to get hurt."
"I
get it, and thank you," Kim smiles back to him. "I suppose you have
Madeline
to help you these days, huh?"
Tyler chuckles back to her. "Madeline
and I, we are growing closer, yes. Why? Does that bother you?"
"Of
course not," Kim gulps back to him. "It's just interesting considering
her history with Robbie and I, that's all."
"Trust me, Madeline's
history with you and Robbie is the very last thing on my mind," Tyler winks
back to her.
Twin Peaks General Hospital Robbie steps off the elevator in the hospital and starts to move towards the
waiting room, where Natasha is still eager to hear an update on Sophie. In his
hand, he has some coffees from the Sugarbowl, as they can't stomach to have another
coffee from the cafeteria.
As he moves past the nurses station, Madeline
looks up and sees her former husband walking by. "Robbie, you're back from
Hawaii."
Robbie stops and looks back at Madeline. "I am,"
he tells her. "I don't know if you heard, but the launch was chaos. Sophie,
my niece, was shot. We are waiting to hear how she is doing."
"My
God," Madeline gasps back to him. "I'm sorry to hear that. If I can
do anything, let me know."
"I will," Robbie tells her.
"Look, I'd like to get back to my sister and see how she's doing."
"Of course," Madeline replies to him. "And Robbie, I am here
if you need me, as a friend. Nothing more, though, because you threw me a way,
and don't forget that."
"See, there you go," Robbie rolls
his eyes back to her. "We try to have a civilized conversation and you have
to bring up our annulment. It's time you move on, okay?"
"Oh,
I have," she purses her lips together. "Tyler keeps me very busy at
night."
"Well great," Robbie gulps back to her, hating
that his rival is now sleeping with his former wife. "Excuse me, if you will."
The Davenport House; Chris, Trenyce, BJ, & Albertinah's Home "I have to admit, I am still reeling from this entire story," Daisy
admits to Trenyce
and Cheresa
as she pours herself a cup of coffee in the living room of the Davenport house.
Daisy has just learned about Trenyce and Andrew's
affair, which Chris
also discovered the night before, which is why Trenyce feels like her family might
be in danger. She knows that Antonio suggested that Andrew might be Albertinah's
father but it is still a difficult pill to swallow for her. "You and Andrew?"
"It only happened once," Trenyce sighs back to her Aunt, who can't
help but realize that she also has been intimate with Andrew. "And that one
night might change my life forever."
"It's more than just about
the affair," Cheresa explains to her mother. "It is also the fact that
Albertinah might not be Chris' daughter. Andrew might be her father."
"I can't even think about that," Trenyce shakes her head back to
her. "Chris is the only father my little girl has never known. He has to
be the father he has to be."
"You know," Daisy grits
her teeth together. "This is all Antonio's fault; he is the one that put
me and Andrew in the damn casino; he is the one that got Andrew hooked on gambling;
and he is the one that told Andrew that he is likely to be Albertinah's father.
Had that man not set all of this into motion, this could have all been avoided."
"I don't disagree with you," Trenyce tells her. "But I have
to take responsibility for my actions, and so does Andrew. Antonio didn't make
us sleep together that night."
"It still doesn't change the
fact that Antonio is a son of a bitch," Daisy replies to her. "He has
caused us enough pain."
Before any of them can respond, the front
doorbell rings. "I'll get it," Trenyce tells her family as she moves
the living room and towards the front door. She opens the door and is stunned
to see Chris standing there. "Chris, hi."
"Trey,"
Chris looks back at her. "We have to talk, I have a few things I need to
get off my chest."
Penny's Farmhouse; Holdenville, Oklahoma "You certainly worked my breakfast appetite up this morning," Penny
chuckles as she kisses Cory as they move into the kitchen of her farmhouse, fresh
from making love to start their day. "How about I make some apple-cinnamon
flapjacks?"
"That sounds great," Cory replies to her. "And
thanks for upstairs, by the way. That's the best way to start my day."
"Mine too," Penny winks back to him as she pulls out a mixing bowl
from her cupboard and Cory pours himself a cup of coffee.
"I guess
I'll read the news while you make breakfast," Cory tells his lover as he
sits at the small table in the kitchen and opens is Ipad, while Penny continues
to make the food. As he's taking a sip of his coffee, however, Cory feels the
blood drain from his face. "My God."
"What is it?"
Penny asks him in concern.
"It's It's Sophie, my daughter "
Cory looks at her in horror. "She was she was shot My God! I..I
have to go home, Penny. I have to make sure my daughter is going to live."
