Friday, April 14, 2006
At the hospital, David assured Josh that Greg may well have self-medicated with the drugs found in his system to treat his arrhythmia, but Josh remained skeptical.
Kendall ranted to Jack that she wanted to un-grant the parental rights she’d given to Ryan. Jack warned Kendall that she would have a tough time beating Ryan in a custody battle over their unborn son, especially if she only wanted custody in order to relinquish custody to adoptive parents. Kendall was confident that she would be able to prove that Ryan is an unfit father. Jack suggested that perhaps Ryan deserved a chance at parenthood and urged Kendall to help him understand why she felt that giving the baby up was the best solution. She accused him of bullying her and tried to storm out. Jack stopped her and vowed to stand by her if she thought about the situation carefully and decided that she did want to fight Ryan.
At Fusion, Zach refused to share with Ryan the damning info he has on Greg. Ryan begged him to ‘fess up for Kendall’s sake. Zach pointed out that Ryan is harboring info that he’s not ponying up, a well. Both men refused to budge.
Dixie sneaked into Greg’s office and began rifling around for leads on Kate. She froze when Tad opened the door, but managed to hide from him successfully. Hazel showed up and threw Tad out of the office before leaving herself. Soon, Dixie was joined by another surprise visitor: Zach. Dix then got a call on her cell phone from David and she agreed, reluctantly, to meet up with him. Zach said that in her absence, he’d scour Greg’s office for her.
After Zach exited the Fusion offices, Ryan left a frantic message for Erica on her cell phone. Tad entered and probed Ryan for details about Greg’s on-air collapse. Ryan tried to sidestep his questions about the role Erica played in the episode, then told Tad that Erica told him what Madden had done to her. “As in, everything,” Ryan clarified, making it plain that he knew about Erica’s true relationship to Josh. He hinted that Erica was indeed responsible for what had happened to Greg. The men agreed that it was critical to protect Kendall from Greg. Ryan gave Tad his word that La Kane would not make another attempt on Greg’s life. After thanking Ryan for the “non-confirmation confirmation” of Erica’s culpability in Greg’s condition, he headed out to pursue a theory on where Erica might have gotten her hands on the medicine she used to cause Greg’s cardiac episode. Uh-oh…
When Erica visited Greg in his hospital room, they danced around the real issue (the whole “Josh is Erica’s son thing”) while discussing Josh’s suspicions that Erica had drugged Greg. They revisited the roots of their acquaintance that day she went to his clinic to terminate her pregnancy. “Do you regret what you did to me, Greg?” she queried. Greg then spoke about Josh’s childhood and Erica snapped that she didn’t regret not having a son, especially one who would accuse her of attempted murder. Greg reported to Erica that he had claimed to Josh that he was responsible for his own drugging then disclosed that he’d once had a dream in which Josh was her son. “I don’t have a son,” snapped Erica. “Dreams come true every day,” Greg shrugged. Greg offered to help Josh see Erica through his (Greg’s) eyes, as someone he could love and trust. “It’s not too late to make things right,” the doc added. Erica and Greg exchanged coy threats, but their cat-and-mouse game was interrupted by Josh’s entrance. Greg asked him to stay, as there was something important he wanted to tell her about Ms. Kane. Just then, Kendall joined the group.
Zach found a curious brochure among Greg’s belongings for something called the ReGeneration Spa.
Dixie headed to David’s cabin, where he had arranged a romantic, candlelit dinner. He kissed her, but she told him to stop. “It’s too soon,” she gulped. She was nearly speechless when David presented her with a sword she’d once admired in a store window. As David pleaded with Dixie to give their romance another shot, Tad walked in and came face-to-face with a mortified Dixie.
