ATWT Recaps Week of August 21, 2006
Friday, August 25, 2006
Carly and Simon had misty memories of their kiss and then discussed it. “I may have seen fireworks,” Simon chuckled, but it also “may have been inappropriate.” “It doesn’t pay the bills,” Carly agreed. They (reluctantly) decided not to let the liplock interfere with business. They shook hands and Simon directed Carly, “Take off your clothes.” Say, what? “Call me when you grow up!” Carly snarked — until Simon showed her a kickass original dress from Milan and sketched a politically incorrect idea for them to charm their marble supplier. Then, Carly left to see Jack and Simon knocked a bucket of spackle all over himself. He had to whip off his shirt and hit the shower. Carly caught Eve and Jack hugging goodbye at the OPD. “It’s not what you think!” Jack hurriedly told Carly, making excuses. Carly surprised Jack with her mature reaction and said she’d e-mail Jack about the kids’ visitation. Of course, when she returned to Simon’s building, she found him naked. “Not a speck of spackle,” she noted, standing by his piled clothing.
At Java, Luke stood around in one of his Striped Shirts of Innocence and took abuse from Kevin. Kevin called him the “black hole when it comes to hooking up” and told him not to go to Raven Lake unless he was bringing a girl. Jade arrived soon after, scowling at Luke’s ex-massage buddy. She followed Luke to the Snyders in a hot minute and told him to get over Kevin ASAP. “This weekend, you’re flying solo,” he told Jade, bitterly. Jade tried to convince him that going to the lake would be good for him. “Who the hell is Kevin to pass judgment on you?” she pointed out. Luke was a little scared to admit that Jade was right, and also scared of being Out, but agreed to go to the lake. En route, Jade feared Will would think she’s a stalker (well, if it looks like a duck…) and Luke told her to tell Will how she really feels. Jade grabbed her backpack out of the trunk, deciding to walk the rest of the way (with a slasher loose).
Maddie awoke from a nightmare and Henry and Eve assured her that the cops would find Louis. Great Aunt Kim brought mac & cheese for Will and set about curing Will’s Gwen-related blues. Elsewhere, Gwen was blue (again) about her broken marriage and Casey was still bummed that Maddie could be psycho. This trip was perfectly timed! Gwen added that, “if Jade goes to Hell and, like, gains a hundred pounds,” that would be great, too. Day player Ann ran in with food for their trip. Then, Gwen was faced with the slasher and screamed her head off. Casey tackled…Zack, who’d been pulling a cruel prank. Eve suggested Maddie stay with their sister Bernadette in Chicago and Henry agreed. But first, Maddie needed to talk to Casey! Aunt Kim told Will he had to be a man or he would lose Gwen. Will thanked Kim for “giving it to me straight” and headed out to convince Gwen he’d grown up. Outside Chez Hughes, Maddie overheard Zack and Ann joking about Casey and Gwen’s closeness. She consequently snowed both Henry and Eve and headed for the lake. The kids all arrived to the Raven Lake location shoot, complete with ALL MY CHILDREN-style camerawork. Gwen urged Casey to go have fun. “You’re going to make me swim with hot girls? You’re so mean,” he joked before bolting. Gwen turned and found Will standing there. Awkward! “You and I should talk,” Gwen said. Well, Will was going to listen. Just as they made progress, Luke arrived and told Will Jade was looking for him. Naturally, Gwen flipped. Meanwhile, the slasher pulled his/her ginormous knife out of a backpack.
