The Calimo Mansion Natasha pours herself a glass of wine at the bar in the living room of the Calimo mansion, while a large fire roars in the fireplace. On the coffee table, her IPad screen is open and is on some wedding ideas as she and Shane have decided to have a big wedding when they remarry. She moves back to the sofa and is about to pick up her IPad again, when Jacob moves into the living room. She looks at her son and wonders where his head is now that he knows about Isabelle's blackmail scheme against Cassie. "Oh darling, I just poured some wine, would you like some and join me?" she asks as Jacob looks back at his mother. "Sure, that sounds nice." "Your father and I spoke earlier today," Natasha tells him as Jacob sits in the arm chair across from her with a fresh glass of wine. "We have decided to have a big wedding this time, since our last marriage wasn't legal." "I still can't believe that happened," Jacob admits to her. "But I think a big wedding sounds nice. You two have been through so much together, it is a nice way to celebrate." "That is exactly what we were thinking," Natasha purses her lips together. "And how are you? If we were getting married tomorrow, whom would you bring as your plus one? Isabelle or….uh, Cassie?" Jacob chuckles back to her before takes a sip of his drink. "I've taken a lot of time to sort through my feelings," he reveals to her. "And I think I've finally know what I want and need to do, Mom. But regardless of what that is, you have to support me. Can you do that?" "If you want to be with Cassie…" "It doesn't matter whom I decide," he interrupts her. "I need your support, please?" "I'll try," Natasha smiles back to him. "I just hope you're making the right choice." The Sugarbowl Jeff sits at the back booth of the coffeehouse with a decaf coffee in front of him. He is thinking about how he ran into Meggan earlier at the Pink Flamingo and she was, once again, drinking a martini. When he asked her to stop, she threw her drink at him and stormed off. He has no idea how he is going to get through to her, but he knows that he must do something to make her realize the error of her ways. He takes a sip of his drink when the door to the coffeehouse opens and Logan appears. Logan, immediately, sees his father and moves to the back booth to join him. "You're here late," Logan notes to him as he sits across from him. "I ran into your mother earlier," Jeff reveals to him. "She was drinking again; when I called her out on it, her drink ended up on my face." "Whoa," Logan can't help but chuckle. "She threw her drink at you? You must have pissed her off if she wasted alcohol." "I was just trying to get her to see how her actions are harming her and the family," Jeff sighs back to him. "How are you feeling?" Logan shrugs back to him. "Honestly, Dad, it's her life," he tells him. "If she wants to get wasted every day, that's her choice. What harm is she actually causing?" "You weren't born the last time she was drinking this much," Jeff replies to him. "She thought she ran over a little boy and killed him." "I know the story," Logan says back to him. "I just think you need to let her do what she wants because the more you harass her, the more she turns to the bottle." *** At the window seats, Chris and Trenyce sit next to one another with some hot chocolates next to them. They are together as they are still trying to figure out a way that they could, possibly, prove Daisy's innocence in Antonio's murder so they could get her out of jail. After Andrew saw Daisy last, he noted that she seemed depressed, so they are trying to figure out how they could get her out of jail. "Andrew went to see Daisy again tonight," Trenyce tells her estranged husband. "I am hoping that she is in better spirits then last time." "You and me both," Chris tells her before he takes a sip of his herbal tea. "Have you given any thought to how we can prove her innocence?" "I haven't," Trenyce sighs back to him. "I wish there was some kind of evidence that we could find to help prove her innocence." "Simona Lopez and Lois Kam really built a solid case against Daisy," Chris reminds her. "It was all circumstantial, but it was strong enough to get a conviction." "We know that Daisy is innocence," Trenyce says. "There has to be something we can do." Chris finds himself putting his arm around his estranged wife and holds her for a moment. "You know what I believe?" he whispers to her. "I believe that this will all work out in the end; I think Daisy will come home." "From your lips, to God's ears," Trenyec whispers back to him. The State Prison Daisy gets a sly grin on her face when she sees Andrew waiting in the vistors center. She was told that someone had come to see her, but she wasn't' sure who it was. But seeing her former lover makes her happy, especially since she can tell him about her visit with Dawn. "You look better than the last time I was here," Andrew tells her as Daisy sits next to her. "Are you feeling better?" "I am," Daisy replies to him quickly. "I had a visit from Dawn Black." Andrew's eyes open wider in surprise back to her. "Dawn? I thought she left town after she found out about Cheresa sleeping with that nurse?" "She did," Daisy tells him. "But, she's back doing a special report on mental health with inmates. We…we had a great conversation." "That's great to hear," Andrew looks back at her. "Maybe she helped you with deal your depressive thoughts?" "I hope so," Daisy whispers. "Something else happened though, and, well, I'm not sure what to make of it." Andrew arches his eyebrow back to her. "What happened?" "Dawn," Daisy looks back at him with intent. "She saw someone in prison; another inmate." "Who?" "Tara," Daisy reveals to him. "Dawn saw the woman that kidnapped Cheresa and shot Kim." The Victors Mansion; Frederick's Lair Frederick moves to the bar in the living room of the Victors mansion and pours himself a scotch. He is pleased with himself because earlier in the evening, Will arrived and demanded to speak to Felicia to see how she was coping being at the mansion. Frederick lied to Will, telling him that Felicia was suffering from amnesia that she suffered from in the fire at Raven's Meadow last year, but the truth is, Frederick is drugging Felicia to ensure that she doesn't remember her family or past life. This is why Felicia isn't asking to go home and be with her loved ones. Thankfully, when Will questioned Felicia, she said that she is very happy with Frederick at the mansion, which allowed Will to leave feeling satisfied. Still, Frederick realizes that Will's conscious might be a downfall, but he refuses to let that happen. "I've come too far in my plans for William to ruin anything now," he whispers to himself. "Eva better keep her boytoy in check, or I might have to take action." "Man, is it cold out there," Bryce announces as he moves into the living room, causing Frederick to turn and see his grandson. "I need something to warm me up." "I'll get you a scotch and we can sit by the fire," Frederick replies to him. "You are back from Santa Barbara?" "I just landed a short time ago," Bryce nods as he sits by the fire and accepts the drink from this grandfather. "I see," Fredreick sits across from him. "How is everything at the winery and with our, uh, project?" Bryce takes a sip of his scotch and then looks back at him. "Everything is absolutely fine," Bryce reveals to him. "We have no worries to report." "Good," Frederick
smiles back to him. "That's what I like to hear; now, we just have to ensure
none of my family goes to the winery until we are ready for them to be there." |
