Friday, June 16, 2006
Dolled-up Katie and Mike snuggled on the Love Boat, cracking open the bubbly. At the country club, Holden told Jack that Damian’s in town. Meanwhile, Lily didn’t buy Damian’s assurances about Kreeger’s camp while Luke accused Kreeger of trying to scare him straight. Kreeger pretended he hadn’t known Luke is gay. At the farm, Emma questioned Paul and Meg raising Emily’s baby. Emily, Jen and Dusty awaited test results and Dr. Bob arrived and said that Em’s stem cells were a match and they could do the procedure tonight. Susan put a damper on things, though, refusing to let Emily risk herself and her own baby. Stricken, Emily booted everyone from her room. Emma pointed out that Paul had spent a lot of time on the farm trying to woo Rosanna. Paul said this time he was going to get it right. He tried to pay off Emma’s mortgage and she wasn’t havin’ that either. On the cruise, Katie ministered to Mike after a cork mishap and they toasted. Holden told Jack that Damian was holed up at Fairwinds, doing a whole song and dance about family. Jack offered to dig around with Interpol. Luke still didn’t trust Dr. Creeper (er, Kreeger), who sowed seeds of dissent, saying that Lily knew what his camp was about.
Damian was sure that Luke isn’t gay. “If he takes action, Lily, he could do something he could never take back.” “Like what, fall in love with a boy?” Well, that and Other Gay Things. Lily realized how horrible Damian sounded, fearing she’d sounded that horrible to Luke. “Our son doesn’t need to change, but I do.” Lily was determined to go evict Kreeger and Damian warned her that Holden would blame her regardless. Jack and Holden discussed Damian and Lily’s alliance. “It’s not a healthy situation,” he sighed, and it was Luke who was going to suffer. Emma turned down Paul’s cash and scoffed at Meg’s happiness. “I didn’t settle this time!” Meg defended. And the baby would need Emma in its life. Emma caved but refused to forget Paul’s past. “Our boy’s gonna make it,” Dusty assured Jen. Susan got paged and warned Dusty to leave Emily alone. Naturally, Dusty didn’t: “Name your price.” Katie and Mike enjoyed themselves as “Louie, Louie” blared across the ship. Holden confided that Damian wanted to make Luke un-gay and was knocking Holden’s parenting skills. Really? Jack would’ve punched him! Well, Holden had done just that. He admitted he was bummed about Lily’s reaction to the whole thing. Of course, Lily was currently having an awakening, telling Damian that if he didn’t shape up, she would make sure he never saw Luke again. Luke pretended to play along with Creeper’s “sick gay intervention,” going upstairs to pack (Ruuuuuun!). In the Snyder barn, Paul and Meg settled in to milk Emma’s cow.
At the hospital, Dusty reminded Em that she’d tried to off him but then gently assured her she’d be doing the right thing saving Johnny. “I want you to have faith that God’s gonna take care of you.” Okay. She’d do it. “I am the farmer in the dell!” declared victorious Paul with a bucket of milk. Emma wasn’t quite so impressed, more harried, as she told Paul and Meg that Johnny was in dire straits. At the top of the stairs, Luke called Holden, whispering for help. Lily rushed in, crying Luke’s name in a panic and booting the smug and creepy Kreeger. “This is just a trick!” Luke screamed. “They told me that you wanted to fix me!” Lily begged him to come down and talk. Post-coital Katie and Mike snuggled but were interrupted by a drunken woman from across the hall. “I’m back with supplies!” she told the dashing man in her own room: Simon Frasier! Emily awoke after the operation with Susan saying she and the baby had come through with flying colors. Dusty and Jen fervently thanked Emily. Tears were shed. Paul and Meg arrived a day late and a dollar short, learning that Emily’s gesture might save Johnny. Holden left the club even as Luke got more and more agitated, accusing Lily of setting him up. “Stay away!” he yelled, accidentally shoving his mother. Oh, no! She rolled down the stairs in painstakingly slow motion and Damian rushed to her side.
