One Life To Live Recaps
OLTL Week of November 9, 2009
Monday
A drunken Gigi stripped down to her bra and offered herself to Schuyler. Schuyler told her that they wouldn't be getting naked. "I thought that you wanted me," she slurred. Schuyler assured her he did want her but "not like this. Nothing is going to happen here." He helped Gigi put her shirt back on. Gigi wondered if she and Rex had a future and admitted to having stayed faithful to Rex, even when he was out of Gigi's life. "I never felt so alone in my whole life," she admitted as she related the saga of her relationship with Rex. Schuyler asked why Rex hadn't stayed in touch with her. Gigi took an aspirin and lay down on Schuyler's bed. She asked him to hold her but promised she wouldn't be making any moves. Schuyler held her as she fell asleep.
Oliver and Kyle got ready for their first date. Layla advised Oliver to change his dorky shirt, adding that she was glad he was so happy. "I want you to be happy too," he replied. They started to talk about her relationship with Cristian. When Kyle came
to pick him up for their first date, Oliver got a call to go to the station and asked Kyle to stay and wait for him. Kyle agreed and he and Layla drank beers together. Kyle said it wasn't really that hard to admit his feelings. Layla was impressed, and looked at a photo of herself with Evangeline. Kyle assured her that he and Oliver hadn't been talking about her behind her back. Layla said that she had always been in competition with her sister. The two spoke around the whole Cristian thing. Kyle told Layla that he would never be waiting for Oliver in his apartment if he hadn't been able to put the past behind him. Layla stood up and headed out. Oliver came home and Kyle was delighted to see him.
Carlotta asked Cris to stop moping. "Call her," she pushed. Cris admitted he was angry at the situation. Cris assured his mother that he'd figure out a way to move on. He tried to explain that Layla said she didn't want to be with him because of Evangeline, who was in a coma. After he told his mother to go home, Layla showed up at the diner kitchen.
As the police began to drag Rex's Aunt Corrine off, she kept threatening to tell Rex who his father was. Corrine insisted she had proof. When Rex demanded to see the proof right now, Corrine handed her nephew an envelope with a familiar address on the front — the Boutet Clinic (the clinic where Shane's stem cells had come from). After she warned Rex that once he sees what's in that envelope he can never go back, he saw the name Mitch Laurence on his birth certificate.
John and Brody boarded a plane to California. As they tried to figure out what was behind Corrine and Nadine drugging Rex and Brody, John remembered that someone had told Walter Balsom what to do all those years ago when Viki delivered twins. He added that Walter had been in a cult led by Mitch Laurence.
Viki went to the cemetery and noticed that someone had emptied Nash's coffin. Charlie called the police, and wondered why Jared wasn't reaching out to him. Oliver showed up at the cemetery. "What kind of ghoul would do that?" Viki said, pointing at the grave.
Jessica spotted Nash's skeleton and began screaming. She ran to the door and saw Jared standing outside. Jessica opened a closet and Natalie fell out, unconscious. Jessica wouldn't let Jared in. Natalie woke up and smiled when she saw Jared. She leapt into his arms, despite Jessica's insistence that Mitch was behind unburying Nash and stalking her. Then Mitch himself appeared!
Tuesday
Téa wondered to Eli where Danielle might be. The headmistress reported that Danielle was missing. The videotape showed them that Destiny had helped Danielle. Téa was stunned to learn that Matthew was in the same school as her daughter.
David asked Bo and Nora if they were going to tell Clint they were in love, warning that Clint would probably shoot them. Clint surprised them by walking into the living room in London. "We have a lot to talk about," Nora told her husband. A phone call from Matthew's school interrupted that conversation. Nora and Bo were stunned to learn that Matthew was missing. Bo, Nora and Clint headed to the school and threatened legal action, then ran into Téa. "What are you doing here?" Nora asked, wondering if Téa helped Matthew run away. "No one messes with my daughter," Téa said to a shocked Nora — who until then hadn’t known Téa had a child.
Matthew and Dani boarded a plane to Seattle. Dani called Destiny Matthew's soul mate. Matthew wondered if guys even had soul mates. Dani told Matthew that his parent would freak when they realize he was missing, and the two commiserated about their parents. Dani was stunned when he referred his attorney as "that shark Téa Delgado." Matthew was equally as shocked to learn that Téa was Dani's mom.
Oliver came home and explained to Kyle that his face was covered with dirt because "I crawled through an empty grave." Oliver took a shower and Kyle suggested they not leave the apartment, which led to a kiss.
Layla showed up at the diner to talk to Cristian. She admitted she didn't want to do this "without you,” explaining that Cristian made her feel good and she didn't want to give that up. Layla wondered if she was using Evangeline as an excuse not to get hurt. "So what do you think?" Layla asked. Cris grabbed her and started to kiss her. Cris and Layla kissed their way back to the apartment, where they interrupted a kiss between Oliver and Kyle. Layla was ready to give up the apartment to Kyle and Oliver. Kyle thought they should slow down a bit. "Let's take our time. Get reacquainted," Kyle suggested.
On their way to San Francisco, Brody and John discussed Mitch Laurence. Brody was stunned to learn that Mitch was Jessica's father. "I thought Clint was Jessica's dad," a confused Brody asked John, who revealed that Mitch had been "killed five years ago."
Rex was dumbstruck when he realized that Mitch Laurence was his father, convinced it had to be a lie. Rex wanted to know if Mitch had called Corrine, who explained that Walter had been involved in Mitch's cult. Rex wondered if Mitch had raped Roxy, and remembered that Roxy had said his father was really evil. Had Roxy had been hiding the truth that Mitch had been alive all this time? Rex asked, and hoped that the birth certificate was incorrect.
In Napa, Mitch quoted some scripture-like verse. "Mitch," Jessica said, "you are dead." Mitch asked them to come to him. Jared was stunned to learn the man was Mitch. Mitch grabbed Natalie "my wife" and threatened to harm her. "Why aren't you dead?" a panicked Jessica asked. Mitch began to explain how he had resurrected himself. "Daddy's back now. Let the healing begin,"
he sneered. Mitch alluded to some "ancient father and son bond." Natalie looked confused. Jared panicked. Things got worse when Mitch pulled a gun on Natalie, Jared and Jessica.
Destiny told David that Matthew was with someone else, Dani.
"She likes him. I can tell," Destiny sighed, adding that Matthew clearly liked Dani as well. David told her that he wouldn't be returning to Llanview with her. "I'll miss you," she said. "We make a great Téam, don't we?" he replied. David suggested she give Matthew a little time.
Kyle, Oliver, Layla and Cristian all watched their favorite Christmas movie — Christina Comes Home For Christmas — together.
Neville was stunned to learn David would be staying, and admitted he knew many princesses and duchesses. David was quite intrigued.
Wednesday
Ross frightened Blair by showing up in her room; he wanted help getting his daughter, and pointed out that she owes him a favor. Ross got a call from Téa asking if Danielle was with him. Ross asked Téa if Danielle was missing, and denied having taken Danielle from school. Téa hung up. "My daughter is missing and her bitch of a mother won't give me a bit of information," he said as he pulled Blair into a kiss. Blair wanted him to calm down and let her and Téa go — and his daughter, too. Ross was stunned. "Dani is my daughter," he said. Blair didn't say anything but remembered that Dani is in fact Todd's daughter. A furious Ross went after Blair but Todd grabbed him from behind.
Clint, Bo, Nora and Téa tried to locate Matthew and Dani. Nora asked Téa why she didn't tell anyone that she was a daughter. Eli reported that Matthew's roommate Tom had no information on the whereabouts of the kids. Téa was sure that they had gone to Tahiti. Nora and Téa began to argue. Nora and Bo both panicked about where Matthew was. Clint walked in on their embrace, thought nothing of it and told them that both his daughters were in real trouble.
Matthew and Dani arrived safely in Seattle but Matthew still couldn't believe that Dani was Téa's daughter. Dani bristled at the comparison. Matthew let the nurse know he was there to see Dr. Nance. Matthew told Dani that their moms did NOT get along. Matthew panicked when he realized his father was on the phone with the hospital in Seattle. Dr. Nance lied to Bo and said he hadn't seen Matthew, then assure Matthew he’d be out of that wheelchair in no time. "I can't believe it," Matthew said. "I'm going to walk again," he said and thanked Danielle again. "You are really as great as your mom," he added. "You're the bomb," he added. Matthew added that he didn't know that Téa even had a child, which stunned Dani.
Mitch told Jared, Jessica and Natalie that he wants his wife and his
daughter back. "I have big plans for both my girls," he sneered to a horrified Jared, Jessica and Natalie. Jared made it clear that Jessica and Natalie would NOT be joining him in his cult. Mitch drew a gun on Jared. Natalie stood in front of her husband hoping to protect him from Mitch.
Mitch told Natalie that Jared had been keeping secrets from her. "Your drunk of a father-in- law is a murderer," Mitch said. Jared explained that Wayne Landers knew Charlie was a murderer, and was planning on shaking down the family for money. Jared gave the passwords so Landers would have enough money and leave them alone. When that didn't work, Landers ended up dead on Viki's patio. Jared said he was called to the Buchanan Lodge, where Pamela was alive until Mitch murdered her as well. "I made a deal with the devil. I'm sorry," Jared said, adding he had done everything to protect his father.
Brody and John approached the greenhouse and saw Mitch, Jared, Natalie and Jessica through the door. They inched closer. Jared approached Mitch and told them that Mitch wouldn't be getting his way with Natalie and Jessica. "You are a bug. A means to an end," Mitch said to Jared.
As Brody and John charged the room, Mitch grabbed Natalie and threatened to kill her "in a second." John aimed his gun at Mitch. Mitch dropped to his knees and pulled the trigger.
Back in Llanview, Viki told Charlie that Brody and Rex had been drugged. Viki thought one person was behind that and the digging up of Nash's body. Charlie wondered if perhaps he was responsible for Jared's odd behavior. Viki was adamant that Jared had done nothing wrong and assured her husband that she would always be there for him. "For better or worse," she said.
Jack wondered if Todd would be heading to London to find Téa. Jack pointed out that Todd and Blair had almost kissed at Halloween, and reminded his dad that Téa "messed you up. You have everything here with mom."
Thursday
Nora and Bo were airborne heading to Seattle. When Nora panicked at the thought that Matthew was already at the hospital, Bo promised Nora they would be together after this situation with Matthew was over. Nora and Bo arrived at Tacoma/Seattle airport and hoped they weren't too late.
Destiny showed up at Shaun's door and told his sister that he wasn't talking to Greg "ever again." Destiny admitted that she had lied to their parents to go to see Matthew in London. "David Vickers came with me," she confessed. "Please don't tell Mom and
Dad," she begged. Destiny wanted Greg to help with Matthew's upcoming surgery. "You are the only one who can convince Greg to do the operation," she explained. When Shaun wouldn't budge, Destiny said she'd convince Greg herself.
Rachel showed up at Greg's door and said she had plans to return to Chicago because she doesn't want to come between Greg and Shaun."Your family is much more important," she stressed. Destiny walked in on them kissing. Destiny begged Greg to do the surgery and as Greg was saying he couldn't, Shaun walked in and asked him to do it for him. "You owe me," he growled.
In Seattle, Matthew wondered how long it would take to get him "in the system," meaning all that paperwork. Danielle asked him if he was scared and assured Matthew she'd be there the whole time and hold on to his good luck sneakers. Dr. Nance had more forms for Matthew to fill out and then he accompanied him to the OR.
Marcie, just returned from Llanview, gave Michael a big kiss. Bo
called Michael from the plane. Michael agreed to try to stall Matthew's surgery. Marcie asked Matthew where his parents were and was introduced to Dani. When Dr. Nance said the OR was ready, Marcie pretended to go into labor to stall the surgery. Then she really did start labor!
Ross went after Blair and Todd pulled him off her. "What are you doing here?" Todd asked Ross. Todd wondered what Téa was doing in London with Elijah. Blair didn't want Ross to tell Todd that Téa has a child. Blair promised to help Ross find Téa's daughter IF Ross kept the existence of the daughter a secret from Todd.
Todd made plans to go to Seattle to find Téa. Blair tried to convince him to stay home for the sake of their children.
Téa asked Eli how much longer their flight would be. Téa was relieved that Danielle was in Seattle with Matthew and insisted there were reasons to keep a child away from her father, especially when the father was Todd. Téa was suspicious of Eli's motives when he said he wanted to help her and liked happy endings.
John pulled a gun on Mitch after Mitch shot Jared. Natalie
screamed as Jared fell to the floor. Jared began to bleed. A lot. Brody was on the phone with 911. With the ambulance on the way, John handcuffed Mitch. Natalie freaked when she tried to figure out if Jared was breathing. "He doesn't deserve you," Mitch sneered. "You are a monster," she replied.
Charlie and Viki showed up at the greenhouse and wondered where Jessica, Natalie and Jared were. Charlie was desperate to find his son. Jessica found them and told Charlie that Jared had been shot. "Mitch Laurence is back," Jessica told a stunned Viki, and explained that Mitch had gotten to Jared's former prison pal, Wayne. "Mitch told Jared that he had something on Charlie. Mitch said that Charlie was a murderer," Jessica told her mom, adding
that Jared seemed to think it was true. The ambulance showed up; Viki ran with Jessica to the greenhouse.
Jared told Charlie that he didn't it for "you." Charlie didn't know what he was talking about. Natalie said it didn't matter.
Viki and Mitch saw each other for the first time. "So nice to see you again," he said in that creepy Mitch voice. Viki looked as if she would fall over. Mitch waved goodbye to Jared, who was brought into the ambulance and didn't look well at all. The paramedics were not optimistic.
Friday
Rex returned home and kept staring at his birth certificate. Shane ran into his father's arms and Rex vowed to stay with him forever. Rex was shocked to learn that Dorian had married a woman and that his family had won the best costume at Halloween party. (And that Schuyler had stood in for him as Batman.) Rex was stunned when Noelle, not Gigi, came out of the kitchen. Noelle tried to best to come up with an excuse for why Gigi wasn't there.
Gigi woke up in Schuyler's bed. Schuyler gave her aspirin and reminded her that she had had a lot of tequila. Gigi remembered that the had thrown herself at him. "You were drunk. I have rules about that," Schuyler told her, adding that they had not had sex. A frantic Gigi rushed to get home, but Schuyler assured her he had taken care of everything. Gigi left. Roxy came to his door and hit Schuyler on his head. She accused him of trying to steal Gigi. Schuyler explained that he had let Gigi stay over because he didn't want Shane to see her drunk.
Gigi showed up at home and Noelle clued her in to the cover story she had told Rex. Rex pulled Gigi in his arms and smelled tequila on her. "I missed you," he said.
In Napa, Mitch said he'd say a prayer for Jared, whom he shot. He then recited the 23rd Psalm. "A prayer for the dying," Mitch smirked. John announced that he was arresting Mitch for the murder of Pamela Stuart. Mitch said that Jared had killed Pamela. Mitch insisted that Jared had kept him captive and he had no idea who Charlie Banks was. John laughed when Mitch said he grabbed the gun in self defense. "When I tell my story, there won't be a dry eye in the courtroom," Mitch predicted as he talked lovingly about seeing some friends in Llanview.
Jared was rushed into the emergency room and Natalie begged him to stay alive. Natalie wept in Clint's arms. Her dad promised her that everything would be okay. Viki brought Clint up to speed, then the doctor came out of the ER. "He's going to be alright?" Natalie asked. "Jared's alive," the doctor said. Viki asked if Natalie and Charlie could see him before Jared went into surgery. Viki also needed a word with Charlie to talk about "how all this came to pass." Charlie wondered how Mitch got through to Jared. "Through you," Viki revealed to a stunned Charlie. "I don't know this Laurence guy," Charlie explained. "He said that you killed somebody," Viki retorted. "I'm not a killer," Charlie insisted.
Natalie kissed Jared and said she'd be there with him the whole time. Jared told his father that "you killed my stepfather." Jared explained that Charlie was drunk and the two men fought. Charlie couldn't believe that Jared's mom had covered for him way back when. "I don't remember this. This has to be a mistake," Charlie said. Charlie wondered why Jared hadn't said anything. Jared knew he didn't remember and didn't want to ruin their new relationship. "How does Mitch Laurence know?" Charlie asked. Jared explained
that he had been so angry at Charlie for so long that he had told the story to cellmate Wayne Landers. "I don't want to lose you again. I finally got you back," Jared declared. Back in the waiting room, a devastated Charlie told Viki everything Jared told him.
Natalie returned to Jared's side and tried to make him promise to come to her first the next time he's in this kind of predicament. "I don't think there's going to be a next time," he said, adding that he was cold. Natalie began screaming for the doctor. After examining Jared, the doctor came out and told Natalie and her family that Jared had died. Natalie began weeping uncontrollably.
Bo and Nora charged into Seattle hospital and told them to stop the surgery. "We're his parents," Nora said. "But you have no legal rights," the hospital administrator explained and threatened to call security. Nora and Bo realized there was nothing else they could do and they hugged each other. Téa apologized to Nora for having worked on Matthew's case. Nora thought it was too little, too late. The two women sobbed and agreed how scary it was to almost lose their child. Bo and Nora met Danielle, who gave them Matthew's new pair of sneakers.... Dr. Nance came out with some bad news for Bo and Nora.
Michael stood by Marcie's side as she began to have the baby. Marcie begged them to stop the labor. "Your baby wants out today," the doctor told a practically hysterical Marcie. Marcie was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get through it. "It hurts too much, " she said sobbing. "Let's do this," the ob/gyn said. With Michael by her side, Marcie gave birth their baby son.
Schuyler told Gigi that Roxy saw her leave his room. Gigi dropped her phone.... Rex told Roxy he knows that Mitch Laurence is his father. Roxy dropped her laundry.
