The River Rock Casino; The Spa

The spa at the casino is starting to fill up as the launch of Robertson Enterprises latest line, RELax is about to begin. Victoria is backstage looking over things as she is the director of the launch. She just hopes that all of her, and Jeff's, hard work pays off and the line is a huge hit. Circling around her, and the models, are camera's as they are doing a behind the scenes videos to show the audience while they are waiting for the show to begin, and to have some online coverage.

"I am here to support with anything you need from me, Donovan tells his sister as he moves closer to her. "I know that with Trenyce being in the hospital, you might need more help."

"Thanks Donovan," Victoria smiles back to him. "Do you know if there's any updates on Trenyce?"

"I haven't heard anything but I would assume that Chris or Daisy will let us know the status update when they have one. This line though, it's going to be amazing."

"I hope so," Victoria tries to calm her nerves. "We've been working so hard on this line, I just want it to be a success. By the way, I think I saw Sergio in the audience?"

"He and Simona are both here," Donovan nods back to him. "It's a task that Jeff asked me to handle; he wanted police presence just to ensure that nothing crazy happens."

"Makes perfect sense to me."

"And I'm hoping to use this as another way to try to make things right between us; when I slept with Lukas, it really upset Sergio, but I don't want to lose him."

"I have faith that you'll do just that," Victoria purses her lips together.

***

Meanwhile, Sergio and Simona stand at the entrance of the spa ensuring that everyone that enters the fashion show is supposed to be there.

"It's not every day that we get to work a private event," Simona chuckles to her brother before she checks someone else from the guest list. "It's a nice change of pace from the station, huh?"

"You can say that again," Sergio nods back to her. "And hopefully a little less dangerous."

"This is still Twin Peaks, let's not get carried away," she winks back to him. "It's nice that you can support Donovan at the same time, no?"

Sergio sighs back to her as he knows that he is still struggling with the fact that Donovan and Lukas slept together during the custody case. He can understand how Donovan and Lukas felt like they got caught up in the moment, but he wishes that Donovan had just been honest with him.

"Donovan and I…we are taking a break," Sergio admits to her. "And before you ask, it was me who initiated it. Donovan…he slept with Lukas."

"What?" Simona gasps back at him. "He has a lot of nerve!"

"I don't care about that," Sergio tells her. "What I care about is that he lied to me about it. That's what I'm struggling with."

"Those two, Donovan and Lukas, they are nothing but trouble hijo. I hope you realize that now."

Leah looks around the spa hoping to find Jeff. She would love nothing more than to wish him luck before the fashion show begins. She knows that she and Jeff have grown distant the last few weeks as she hasn't been happy that he was working so closely with Victoria on the line; Leah still suspects that Victoria was the one behind the missing funds that were moved from Leah's laptop, which resulted in her getting fired. She just wishes that there was a way for her to get evidence of this.

She also knows that while Jeff has been working with Victoria, she has been busy helping Dominick and Bryce get Felicia away from Frederick. She was so focused on her mother and Leah knows that she was neglecting her relationship.

"Now that Felicia is in Italy and the line is about to be launched," she whispers to herself. "It's time for Jeff and I to reconnect and become stronger again. I just have to find you to tell you that I love you and that I am proud of you…"

***

"You didn't have to stop by to wish me luck," Robin exits her embrace with Nicholas, who stopped by with some flowers for her to congratulate her on the launch that is about to take place.

"I know but I wanted too," Nicholas tells her. "You're always there for me, so I wanted to be here for you."

"You're the best brother I could ask for," Robin purses her lips together. "I've been meaning to stop by and see how you're doing since Jarrod is alive. I…I can't believe it."

"You're telling me!" Nicholas chuckles back to her quickly. "I actually saw him the other night and we talked."

"How did that go?"

Nicholas shrugs back to her. "He told me that our mother played a big hand in him faking his death," he reveals to her. "I don't know why we have such a deranged mother, but we do."

"I am so sorry," Robin replies to him quickly. "I've been lucky that she's been leaving me alone, but I know all too well the lengths she will go to when she thinks you're making the wrong choice in the romance department. Did seeing Jarrod make any of this easier for you?"

"No," Nicholas admits to her. "I have no idea what I should do next, but I have to figure it out. I can't keep everyone in limbo forever."

The Sugarbowl

"I can't believe that you're engaged to Tyler," Andy tells his sister as they sit across from one another in the back booth of the coffeehouse. Andy and Kim are taking the morning to catch up with one another before Andy has plans to head to the hospital to check on Trenyce, who is still there after Dawn's attack on her.

"It feels correct this time," Kim replies to him quickly. "After everything that we have been through, I feel at peace with him right now."

"And you're positive that you're over Robbie? You have no lingering feelings for your former husband?"

Kim takes a long sip of her coffee. "The truth is, Robbie and I will always be connect in some ways; we spent years together, but at the end of the day, we always found a way to hurt one another, Andy. I don't want that for the rest of my life. And besides, Robbie has his hands full with Madeline and their son."

"That is still wild to think that Madeline had his baby when she was out of town," Andy shakes his head in disbelief. "Like, she told no one that she was pregnant event?"

"No, and she claims it was because I just lost my child," Kim tells him. "But whatever, I am happy for Robbie; I know that he has always wanted to be a father. Anyways, enough of that. How are you and Nicholas? Has he come to terms with his former partner being alive?"

"No, he is still reeling, and I can't say that I blame him," Andy reveals to her. "He and Jarrod, they had a good talk though."

"Oh? Why do I get the feeling that you're worried about this?"

"Because I am," Andy admits to her. "Nicholas and Jarrod were together for years, now that he's back, I can't help but wonder if I am about to lose Nicholas to the man he was with before me. Melissa might get her wish after all."

***

At the window seat, Frederick sits with a coffee in front of him. He is taping the edge of his phone as he is desperately waiting for another update from the PI that he hired to track down Felicia. His blood is still boiling over the fact that, somehow, Dominick was able to get her out of the Victors mansion without his knowledge.

"I will get my wife back, even if it is the last thing I do," he whispers to himself. "But the first step is finding out where Dominick, that son of a bitch, took her."

He moves his phone to his ear when it starts to ring. "Frederick Richardson," he says as he answers the call. "Yes, I thought the Calimo cabin and my winery in Santa Barbara would be the two logical places that Dominick would take my wife….I see…well don't stop looking for her; I'm paying you a hell of a lot of money to find my wife!"

He hangs up the phone and sighs heavily. He had hoped that Dominick would be stupid enough to take Felicia to the cabin or winery, but that is not the case.

"It's time we get creative to think about where Dominick too you my dear, Felicia," he looks at an image of Felicia on his phone screen. "Because you belong with me, and I will get you back."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"While we wait for news on Trenyce," Daisy stands up from the chair she was sitting in one of the waiting rooms of the hospital and looks at Chris and Andrew. The three of them are still waiting for an update on how Trenyce is doing after Dawn attacked her that rendered her unconscious. "I do want to say something to the two of you."

Andrew and Chris uneasily look at one another as they know that Daisy had, finally, admitted that she switched the DNA test results that they ran on Albertinah. She wanted to make it appear that Chris, not Andrew, was her father because she was scared to lose Andrew. Both men are still furious with her, but they have been civil with her because they want to ensure that Trenyce is okay.

"Daisy, I don't know that this is the time…" Andrew tries to tell his fiancé. He has no idea if they will still be engaged when the dust settles but he hasn't crossed that bridge yet.

"Please, just hear me out," Daisy pleads with the men. "I…I know that the night of the engagement party was a lot for everyone. And…I know what I did was wrong, and so, I am sorry. I am really very sorry for all the pain and confusion that I caused by altering those DNA test results."

"Your apology, right now, falls flat," Chris tells her quickly. "Andrew is right, this isn't the time or place for any of this."

Before Daisy can say anything else, Stephanie moves into the waiting room. "Good morning," she announces to everyone. "I have an update on Trenyce."

"How is she?" Chris asks the doctor quickly.

"She is fine, and I expect her to make a full recovery," Stephanie reveals as they breathe a sigh of relief. "She has a mild concussion, but she should be better in no time."

"Thank God," Daisy says. "Can we see her?"

"Yes, but please, just one at a time, just so we don't overwhelm her."

"I'll go first," Chris tells everyone. "I want to see my wife."

Daisy and Andrew look at one another in surprise as Chris referred to her as his wife, despite their differences.

The Calimo Mansion

Madeline rushes through the woods desperate to get away from the mansion. While she runs, she can't help but hear a voice calling out. She is desperate to get away from the loud voice that is, seemingly haunting her.

"Madeline….Madeline…" the voice calls out as she continues to rush away through the forest. "You can run but you can't hide!"

"What do you want from me?" she cries out as she continues to run. "Leave me alone!"

"You stole another woman's baby! You're going to hell for this! You're a baby thief!"

"No!" she cries out in horror. "I only wanted to be with Robbie! This is something that I needed to do!"

"You're going to hell Madeline! You're going to hell!"

"Ahhhh!" Madeline bolts up in her bed with fresh sweat on her forehead, as she has awoken from her nightmare.

"Maddie? Hey, are you okay?" Robbie asks as he rushes into the bedroom and moves closer to her bed. "I heard you scream."

"No, I'm not okay," Madeline says as her lower lip quivers. "This…this was all a mistake."

"What was? Madeline, I'm worried about you!"

"Don't be," Madeline tells him. "I…I need to leave…I need to get out of here."

"What are you talking about? Where are you going?" Robbie asks her, confused by what is happening.

"I don't know, but I have to get out of here," Madeline tells him. "The truth is Robbie, you belong with Kim, and I…I can't be here…if I stay, I think I'm going to go crazy!"

Robbie watches as Madeline gets out of bed and rushes to her washroom. "What the hell is going on here?" he asks himself, confused as to what is happening with Madeline.

The River Rock Casino; The Spa

Tyler sits near the back of the spa as he is getting ready for the fashion show to begin. His mind, however, is not on the launch that is about to happen. He can't stop thinking about Madeline revealing to him that she stole Kim's baby the night of their car accident. He can't believe that Bobby is actually Kim and Robbie's son; he recalls how he told Madeline that he might not be able to keep it a secret, but she told him that he would lose Kim if he told the truth.

"This secret is eating away at me," he whispers to herself. "I…I have to get myself together or it will turn my life upside."

He looks forward when the lights start to dim down as the show is about to begin. "This launch is happening at the best time," he tells himself. "I can throw myself into work and try to forget that Madeline ever told me that Kim's son is alive and well."

***

Leah sees the lights dim down and sighs heavily as she wasn't able to find Jeff to talk to him before the show begins. She moves to find a seat, hoping that she and Jeff will be able to connect once the show is over.

***

"Okay everyone, the show is about to begin! Break a leg!" Victoria tells everyone with a smile on her face.

Jeff moves up to her, unaware that one of the camera men has his focus on them. "We did it, Vic! We really did it!"

"I couldn't have done this without you," Victoria whispers back to him before she looks around and sees that everyone is by the stage. She leans in and kisses him on the lips.

Meanwhile, the stage lights up and some models start walking down the runway. The TV screens on both sides of the runway turn on, but instead of showing the models, everyone gets a up close glimpse of Jeff and Victoria kissing passionately backstage! Leah gasps out loud and feels her heart move into her throat.
