The Lawson Estate; Greg, Kim & Cherea's Home

Tara loves the days when she is in the large mansion by herself because, for once, she is able to stop pretending to be Traci, the maid, and she can be herself. The fact is, she has committed herself to the role of Traci so she can get revenge on Greg, Robbie, Kim and Cheresa for what they put her through last year.

When she first started the job as Traci the maid, Tara became fixated on snooping around the mansion, determined to find information that she could use against the family. As time went on, however, she quickly realized that her biggest weapon is to be their friend and she can see situations unfold in front of her.

For example, she thinks to herself as she lays on the sofa with a glass of expensive champagne next to her, the day that she saw Kim and Robbie talking in the foyer. While it was innocent enough, the way she spun it with Greg made it seem like it was far more intimate then it actually was. She could tell by the look in his eyes that she had struck a cord with her boss too.

"I don't know what will happen," she whispers to herself as she takes a sip of her drink. "But I know that I will get revenge on everyone that hurt me and did me wrong."

She closes her eyes for a moment and thinks about how she has a gun, which is hidden in a drawer in the kitchen. She used the money that Roboto was spending on her ransom demand for Cheresa to buy herself a new face and a guy, because she knew she needed both for her plan to work

"I will use it if I have too," she gets a sly grin on her face. "The question is, when will I use it and on whom?"

Raven's Meadow

Andrew hasn't been the the hospital that many times, but the few times he has been at Raven's Meadow, he has hated it. There is a vibe that he gets when he's there that he can't shake, nor does he like. Still, he is there today for a specific reason; he just hopes that everything goes accordingly to his plan.

He pauses when he reaches the chief of staff's office door, takes a deep breath and then knocks. After he hears a faint, "Come in", he opens the door and moves inside. He freezes when he sees Frederick sitting behind the large desk in the office. He hasn't seen Frederick since he returned; seeing the man that almost raised him being alive and well is startling and overwhelming.

"I guess the rumours are true, you're alive," Andrew says with a grin on his face.

Frederick looks over in surprise and immediately stands up to hug Andrew. "My goodness, it has been far too long, Andrew. How are you?"

"I am doing alright, it's nice to see you back, Frederick."

Frederick chuckles back to him thinking about the many fires he is trying to put out right now. "I suppose it is good to be back," he nods back to him. "We will have to catch up, properly, very soon. I'm afraid today, my calendar is rather full."

"Alright," Andrew replies to him. "I won't take too much of your time, but I was hoping that you could help me."

"Help you?" Frederick asks him quickly. "You know that I will do anything I can to help you."

"I appreciate that," Andrew says to him. "You see, I've got myself into a bit of a pickle. I took out a loan and now, I'm struggling to pay it back."

"I see."

"So, I was hoping that I could get the money from you, and pay you back, when I have the funds."

"You know under normal circumstances, I would be happy to assist you, Andrew," Frederick explains to him. "It's just, things are a bit tight right now, especially since the hospital isn't doing as well as it once did."

"I understand."

"It's not that I don't want too," Frederick quickly tells him. "I want to help you."

"I get it, Frederick. I really do."

"Thank you for understanding, and I meant what I said, let's catch up soon?"

"You bet."

The River Rock Casino

Daisy paces back and forth in her suite as she tries to calm her mind, but it is racing with the fact that Andrew revealed to her that he took a loan from Antonio so he could continue to play the blackjack table and now, he is struggling to pay it back. Daisy, even, went so far as to offer to help him pay the loan back but he quickly shot her down.

"I won't let your pride get in the way," Daisy whispers to herself, thinking about Andrew. "If you need money, then I will help you get the money. Once we have paid Antonio off, we can both leave this casino and get back to our everyday lives."

She puts her hand on her stomach for a moment and feels her eyes swell with water as she thinks about the child that she aborted, which sent her down the path of agreeing to sell her body for sex, thanks for Antonio's suggestion. This coupled with Andrew's recent issues, she has realized that Antonio is not a good person; in fact, she believes that Andrew is right and that they need to stay far away from him.

"I told myself I wouldn't sleep with men for money anymore," she says as a tear falls down her cheek. "But I have too. I have to make some more money to help Andrew. And once I do that, we can all go back to our normal lives. So, tonight, I will return to being a hooker. I will get you that money Andrew, I have too."

The Calimo Mansion

"So, Jacob was here earlier?" Shane asks Natasha as he pours two glasses of wine from the bar in her bedroom in the Calimo mansion. They have to continue to visit one another in her bedroom as everyone still believes that she is dying from a rare blood disease; of course, this is a lie that they told to ensure that Jacob would stay away from Cassie, and so far, it seems to be working as Natasha told her son that her dying wish is for him to be with Isabelle. "How did that go?"

Natasha takes the glass of wine and immediately takes a sip of it. "I told him that Cassie visited me and was hounding me," she reveals to her lover. "And then, I told him that he shouldn't waste any more time and that he needed to be with Isabelle as soon as possible."

Shane gets a smile on his face listening to her update. "How did he take that?"

Natasha shrugs back to him. "It was hard to read," she admits to him. "I sense he wants to do anything for me before I die but I can tell that he's conflicted at the same time."

"I still think that this will work," Shane tells her. "How could it not?"

"That's exactly what I keep telling myself," she giggles. "I think we are about to get everything that we want, Shane."

"You know what I want right now?" He asks her as he looks into her eyes. "You, Nat. I want you again and again."

Natasha sets her wine glass down on her end table and then looks over at him with lust in her eyes. "Then have me, Shane. Make love to me all night long."

Roboto

Jacob and Isabelle continue to stand in the main office of Roboto with their lips pressed against each other's. Isabelle had come to the office to do some work and she saw Jacob in the office; as soon as Jacob saw the model, he rushed up to her and kissed her passionately.

"What was that for?" Isabelle asks him as their lips part and they look into one another's eyes. "Not that I'm complaining, you're a great kisser."

Jacob chuckles back to her. "I just came from seeing my Mom," he reveals to her. "And, I guess seeing you, I just got caught up in the moment."

"Your Mom?" Isabelle asks him again. "Does this have anything to do with her dying wish of us being together?"

"It does," Jacob nods as he continues to look into her eyes. "She said that I shouldn't waste any more time; she thinks that the time is now for us to be together."

"I see," Isabelle says back to him. "Well, I don't know what you're thinking, but I can tell you that from the moment I met you, I was attracted to you, Jacob. I've wanted to see what is between us for months now. So, if you want to do this for your mother, I am more than game."

The Pink Flamingo at the River Rock Casino

Cassie sits at the bar with a dirty martini in front of her as she recalls how she ran into Sophie earlier at the coffeehouse. Sensing that the young girl was troubled by something, Cassie befriended her using their mutual connection to Jacob to soften her. Cassie was able to get Sophie to admit that she saw Shane and Natasha in bed together recently, which floored Cassie. It wasn't too long ago, Cassie thinks, that Shane invited her over for dinner and kissed her. Now, he is in bed with his ex-wife?"

Cassie picks up her martini as she continues to think about the situation that is unfolding in front of her. For weeks, now, everyone has believed that Natasha is dying from a rare blood disease that Shane diagnosed her with; then, Natasha told Jacob that her dying wish is for him to be with Isabelle, and now, Sophie has said that she witnessed Natasha, a dying woman, in bed with Shane.

"What the hell is going on here?" Cassie asks herself as she takes a swig of her drink. "And why do I get the feeling that there's more to this story?"

"Whatever this is, I have to figure it out," she whispers to herself. "My entire relationship with Jacob is depending on it."

Dominick's Townhouse

Tears steam down Abby's face as she continues to look back at Dominick as they stand in the living room of the house that they share together. He has been asking for details as to why she was kissing Ethan, why she was drugging him and she just revealed that with Eva being alive, it means that they are not legally married.

"Now do you understand?" Abby asks him as she gasps for air in between her tears. "Eva is alive; that means that you and I aren't legally married. You and Eva, you never finalized your divorce!"

Dominick feels the blood drain from his face as he realizes that she is right; deep down, he never thought of that before, but now, the truth is setting in.

"I suppose I see your point," Dominick admits to her, finally calming down. "But you know what gets me, Abby? You know what makes my blood boil?"

Abby shakes her head no back to him. "It's the fact that you didn't believe in us, you didn't believe in what we had! Instead, you listened to that bastard, Frederick, and agreed to drug me, DRUG ME, to make me forget what happened that day! Do you know how fucked up that is?"

"I know," Abby nods back to him as more tears fall down her cheeks. "But Dominick, please, you have to understand...I did this because I was scared I was going to lose you! I didn't want to lose you!"

Dominick shakes his head back at her. "Well, you might have already lost me."

St. Joseph's Church

Andy stands at the altar of the church while the guests are seated in the pews as his wedding to Nicholas is about to begin. Andy takes a deep breath to calm his nerves before he looks out int he audience to see Kim and Madeline smiling back at him.

"Are you alright?" The minister asks Andy, who nods back to him.

"I'm fine, I am just excited for the ceremony to begin," Andy replies to him.

"Well, you won't have to wait much longer, we are about to begin."

With that, Andy turns his head as the wedding march begins to play. He knows that he and Nicholas discussed, in great detail, about which one would walk down the aisle at their wedding and, because, Andy had already been married, they agreed that it would be Nicholas.

The backdoors open and Robin appears, however, she doesn't have a smile on her face. Instead, she looks rather concerned. She quickly moves down the aisle, much faster than she should.

"Robin? What is it? What's wrong?" Andy asks her as she reaches the altar.

"It's..." Robin begins to say back to him. "Look, there's no easy way to tell you this."

"Just tell me. What's wrong?" A worried Andy asks her quickly.

"It's Nicholas," she replies to him. "He's not here. There's no sign of my brother anywhere. I'm sorry Andy, I don't think there will be a wedding today."
