Theme song: "Desire" Years & Years Previously
on One Day at a Time - After Bishop Murray put him down again, Nicholas
believed he wasn't cut out to be a priest anymore. Andy tried to comfort him but
they ended up having sex. Melissa convinced the Bishop to apologize to Nicholas
and they walked in on Nicholas & Andy! Bishop Murray fired Nicholas and denounced
him from the church. Melissa and Phil were horrified and blamed Andy - Eva
pleaded with Helen to not press charges against Victoria. Brandy, meanwhile, re-emerged
and taunted Shane - Felicia told Leah that she could tell her daughter was
keeping something and pressed her to come clean. Meggan, meanwhile, kicked Brad
out as she told him they were over because she couldn't be with a blackmailer
- Andrew told Chris & Trenyce he was going to school at TPU. Chris surprised
him by revealing that his sister is a teacher at the school - Lukas and Donovan
made love - Brooke saw Greg embracing Kim at the gala and wondered what was
going on with her husband Twin Peaks Executive Hotel
Nicholas peers out the window from his suite that he had to rent from the hotel
the previous night. He normally stays at the church but considering that Arch
Bishop Murray denounced him from the church, Nicholas knows that he can't stay
there anymore. He still can't believe everything that happened at the gala; for
a night that was supposed to celebrate the restoration of the church, it turned
into a complete disaster. After the Bishop repeatedly put him down, Nicholas believed
that he wasn't cut out to be a priest; that's when Andy showed up and tried to
comfort him. One thing lead to another and they ended up kissing and making love
for the first time. Nicholas knows that their attraction had been building for
months and Nicholas saying he was no longer going to be a priest was the tipping
point. Of course, Melissa, Phil and Bishop Murray walked in on him and Andy while
they were having sex. That's when all hell broke loose and Bishop Murray threw
Nicholas out of the church. "How could I have been so stupid?"
Nicholas whispers to himself as he feels more tears swelling in his eyes. He barely
slept the previous night as he couldn't stop thinking about what a mess he created.
"I never should have slept with Andy. I never should have let it get that
far." He turns when he hears a faint knock on his hotel room door.
He slowly moves over to the door and opens it. "Andy, this isn't a good time,"
Nicholas sees his new lover on the other side of the door. "I'm
not leaving until we talk," Andy shrugs his shoulders which then lets Nicholas
move aside so he can walk into the hotel room. "I didn't sleep at all last
night." "Neither did I," Nicholas shuts the hotel room
door. "What we did, it was such a mistake." Andy turns to face
him. "You regret us being together?" Nicholas shrugs his shoulders.
"I've lost my job," Nicholas replies to him. "I've lost my position
at the church. Everything that meant anything to me is gone, Andy. All because
of one mistake
" "I came here to tell you that I am sorry,"
Andy tells him. "I never meant for any of this to happen."
"But it did happen. And, we can't go back. Even though, I have to try to
get back with the church. My life was at St. Joseph's." Andy moves
closer to him. "Maybe this was all meant to happen this way," Andy looks
into his eyes. "We both know we were attracted to one another. This was
bound
to happen?" "No," Nicholas turns away from him. "You
need to go, Andy. I don't think we should see each other anymore."
"You don't mean that." "I do," Nicholas replies to
him. "Please, just go. And, don't come back." Robertson
Enterprises Brad leaves Dominick's office with a grin on his face
as he just met with his new boss to start his first day as corporate security
at Robertson Enterprises. He can't believe his luck of having this job fall into
his lap just when his personal life has been exploding. He and Meggan
found out that Cheresa is actually Chris and Trenyce's biological daughter by
complete mistake; since then, he has since learned that Brooke bought Cheresa
from the black market. He knew that he had to keep this quiet or Brooke could
go to jail, so he told Meggan not to say anything. She, however, refused so Brad
had to use the fact that Logan is really Jeff's son to keep her quiet. Meggan,
thinking that he was blackmailing her, ended their relationship and kicked him
out of the house. Of course, he was working with Meggan, so now that he has a
new job, he can give her some space, even though he won't lose her. "Brad,
what are you doing here?" Jeff asks as he comes up to his one-time rival.
Jeff hasn't seen Brad in sometime, yet alone at Robertson Enterprises. "What
brings you here?" "You haven't heard?" Brad asks him,
snapping out of his daze. "I work here now. I was hired as corporate security
by Dominick." Jeff arches his eyebrow having not heard this news
yet. "I guess the official memo hasn't been released yet," Jeff tells
him. "But if it's true, welcome to the team. We are actually in the midst
of launching a new line, so it makes sense that Dominick would hire you."
Brad uneasily chuckles back to him. "Thanks, I guess."
"How are you and Meggan?" Brad's face loses its smile at the
mention of Meggan. "That well, huh?" Jeff notes Brad's instant facial
expression change. "Hopefully this new job will give you guys some space."
"Yea, maybe that's all we need," Brad uneasily replies to him.
The Sugarbowl Leah opens the door to the coffeehouse and
moves inside as she has a list of orders from the Robertson team. They've all
been working so hard on this new winter/ski line that she decided to go a quick
coffee run since they mostly will be work late again. As she moves into the line-up,
she can't help but see Meggan sitting alone in the back booth with Logan in his
stroller next to her. Leah sighs immediately as she realizes that she
can see Jeff's son. The fact that she has been keeping that fact from him for
so many months has slowly been eating away at her; she knows that the truth thing
to do would be to tell Jeff the truth, but she doesn't want to risk losing her
husband and the life they've built together. Still, the secret has been
eating away at her so much it is now coming across with her loved ones, as Felicia
has asked her multiple times if she is keeping a secret. Leah has maintained that
she is not hiding anything but she hates lying to everyone. She peers
over again at Logan and Meggan and feels her heart sink in her chest. "What
am I doing?" she asks herself. "What am I going to do?"
*** At the window bar, Dawn and Cheresa sit next to one another
with iced coffees in front of them. Cheresa is happy to see Dawn as they haven't
seen much of one another since the truth about Helen being alive was revealed.
"So, your Mom is good and everything?" Cheresa asks Dawn.
"Yea, I can't believe it, but she is fine," Dawn replies to her as she
takes a sip of her iced coffee. "She has made a full recovery."
"I am so happy for you," Cheresa tells her friend. "I know
how devastated you were when you thought you lost her." "It
was a snowball effect," Dawn admits to her. "It was losing my baby then
my grandma
my Mom was the last straw." "And, now you have
your Mom back," Cheresa smiles to her uneasily. "Hey, what
is it? Why do you sound upset?" Cheresa sighs back to her. "I've
been thinking about my biological parents a lot, actually," she admits to
her friend. "I even asked my parents about it but they claim my adoption
was closed so they have no idea who my parents are." "I knew
you were thinking of trying to find them," Dawn tells her. "But, this
seems like a dead end. But there has to be a way to figure this out, Cheresa.
We just can't give up." "Yea, I guess." "Look,
I have to run to the hospital. My Mom has arranged a meeting with Victoria, but
we'll talk about this later?" "I'd like that."
"Good, cause I will help you with this. After everything you've done to me,
it is the least I could do," Dawn hugs her goodbye. Dawn quickly
leaves the coffeehouse, but once she is outside she stops and opens her purse.
She pulls out her anti-depressants and opens the bottle; she puts two in her mouth
and swallows them down quickly before she carries on walking towards the hospital.
The Pampa Grill "I'm still in shock that Andrew has
decided to go back to school," Trenyce tells Chris as they sit together at
a table in the restaurant. "Not that I am complaining, I think it is a very
good direction for him." "Yea, me too," Chris agrees with
her as he thinks about Andrew telling them that he got accepted into TPU. "I
haven't heard back from my sister yet though, to see if she will be his teacher."
"Well, you and Albertinah have never been close," Trenyce reminds
him. "But, I do think that you will hear from her." Chris arches
his eyebrow back to her. "Listen, while we are alone, how about I give Meggan
a call and see if she has uncovered anything about our child? I know we talked
about it but something has always seemingly gotten in the way of actually reaching
out to her." Trenyce picks up her glass of wine and takes a sip
of it. "I think that's a great idea," she tells him. "You call?"
Chris pulls out his phone and dials a number. "Voicemail," he tells
Trenyce. "Meggan, it's Chris Michaels. Trey and I were just wondering if
you've uncovered anything about the search for our child. We haven't heard back
in a few weeks. Give me a call." He hangs up the phone and looks
back at Trenyce. "Guess we wait," she purses her lips together. "Like
we have been." *** "I guess that is a good
sign that you and Donovan are
uh, close again," Craig winks back to
Lukas as they sit at another table in the restaurant. Craig just heard from his
friend that Lukas and Donovan made love for the first time in weeks; Craig knew
that things were dicey between the two of them, mostly because of everything Victoria's
alter egos had done to so many people that Lukas cared about. Lukas chuckles
back to him. "Yup," he looks back at Craig. "It had been so long,
I was beginning to wonder if we would ever get back to that place."
"You know, I'd say about a year ago you would have run away from the relationship,"
Craig admits to him. "It's good that you stuck out a rough patch. It will
only make you and Donovan stronger." "I hope so," Lukas
replies to him. "I still think that Victoria needs to pay for everything
she has done, but whatever happens, happens. It's sort of out of my control."
Craig nods back to him. "Very true," he says. "In fact, I
suspect we will know very soon what will happen." "Helen is
at the hospital now," Lukas advises him. "She wants to press charges,
so we'll see how many Simona can lay on her. How do you feel about that?"
Craig shrugs her shoulders. "I'm not sure," he admits to his friend.
"I know that she's sick, I really just want her to get better. What she did
to me sucks and it was brutal, but I know she wasn't in her right frame of mind."
"Yea, she can get better and still pay for her actions," Lukas
reminds him. "But, I guess whatever happens, she is already suffering."
*** At the bar, Brooke swirls her glass of red wine as her
mind continues to think about the previous night at the gala for St. Joseph's.
She and Greg had arrived together, but she couldn't locate him so she started
to search for her husband. When she found him, he was holding Kim in his arms.
She hasn't been able to get the image out of his mind; what was Greg doing with
another woman. She knows that he never really forgave her for her first affair
years ago, and now she has been sleeping with Robbie, but she never envisioned
that he would stray on her, especially since they have agreed to put their marriage
back together. "Hey, I got your text, what's up?" Greg asks
his wife as he moves to the chair next to her. "It seemed urgent."
Brooke takes a sip of her wine and then looks back at her husband. "I
wanted to talk," she admits to him. "And, away from the children. I
didn't want them to hear this." Greg arches his eyebrow. "You
have my attention, Brooke. What is this about? Cheresa? Has Brad broken his word
to us about telling someone the truth?" "No, nothing like that,"
Brooke replies to him quickly. "This is about last night at the gala. I saw
you and Kim Calimo together." Greg feels his cheeks flush as he
had no idea that Brooke saw them together. He knows that he was only trying to
keep Kim calm as she just discovered that Robbie and Natasha are going to contest
Bob's will. "I
I'm not sure what you saw exactly," he
manages to say back to her. "You were holding her in your arms Greg,"
Brooke takes another sip of her wine. "What the hell is going on?"
"Nothing," he tells his wife immediately. "Brooke, Kim just
lost Bob. Yesterday, she found out that Bob's children are contesting his will.
She was really upset. I was just trying to be her friend." "Robbie
is contesting Bob's will?" Brooke asks in surprise. He never mentioned that
when she saw him at the gala. "Yea, Kim is devastated. And rightfully,
so. So, you have nothing to worry about, okay? There is nothing going on between
Kim and I." Brooke looks back at him and feels bad for questioning
him, especially considering her recent indiscretions. "Sorry I jumped
to the wrong conclusion, it just caught me off guard." "It
is okay," Greg replies to her, realizing he has to be more careful in his
pursuit of Kim. "Let's just move on from this." Twin Peaks
General Hospital "Detective, you have to tell me what you're
going to speak to my daughter about," Eva demands from Simona as they stand
outside of Victoria's hospital room with Donovan, Shane, Adam, Helen and Dawn
all present. Eva is scared to death that her plead to Helen the previous day fell
on deaf ears and she is still going to press charges on Victoria for burying her
alive, even though it was Brandy in charge of Victoria's mind. "I
thought we would discuss in front of Victoria," Simona replies to her. "It
is news that she should hear herself." "I don't think that's
a good idea," Shane interjects. "I haven't had the chance to tell Victoria's
family this yet, but Victoria has
relapsed." "What do
you mean?" Donovan asks him. "Do you mean she's back in a coma?"
"No, nothing like that," Shane replies to him. "But yesterday,
when I went to see Victoria, it was Brandy in control. Victoria wasn't speaking
to me." "My God, not again," Eva covers her mouth as tears
fill her eyes. She looks over at Helen as a tear falls down her cheek. "Don't
you see Helen, my daughter, she can't go to jail. She has to get help. Please,
I'm begging you, if you've told this woman to file any charges against Victoria,
you have to change your mind." "Actually," Helen looks
at everyone. "I've decided not to file any charges for that reason. You're
comments to me, Eva, they really stuck with me. And, I agree with you. Victoria
needs to get help so this doesn't happen to anyone ever again. Seeing her in jail
won't solve anything." "It is true," Simona echoes Helens'
comments. "I was here to tell you all, and Victoria, that no charges are
going to laid in this case." "Oh thank you," Eva hugs
Helen. "I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. And, I know what Brandy
did to you was horrible and if there's anything we can do
"
"I'll let you know," Helen uneasily tells her as they exit their embrace.
"I just hope Victoria gets the help she needs." Twin Peaks
Executive Hotel "I can't believe this all happened after I left
the gala," Robin tells Nicholas as they sit together on the sofa in Nicholas'
hotel room. He has filled his sister in on everything that went down, and she
is surprised to say the very least. "My life is over," Nicholas
replies to her. "It's hard to even think about my life before last night.
It's crazy how one night can change everything." "Life happens
quickly," Robin says back to him. "But Nicholas, your life is not over.
You can still fight for your position at the church. And if that fails, maybe
Andy is your future? I've noticed the chemistry between the two of you for so
long now." "He said the same thing," Nicholas reveals
to her. "But I don't know, Robin. Today, when he was here, every time I looked
at him all I could think was that he cost me my life, my job." "It
was a mistake of events," Robin tells him. "You made mistakes, Andy
made mistakes and Bishop Murray made mistakes. This is all just one disaster.
But, you have to have faith that you will get through this, no matter what your
future holds." Nicholas lets a tear fall from his eye. "I wish
I could believe that," he whispers back to her. "Right now I just feel
like nothing will ever be the same again." Next on One Day at
a Time - Daisy is offered a new job - Donovan buys an engagement ring
- Melissa and Phil say farewell to Nicholas | |
