Y&R Recaps Week of Oct. 10, 2005
Friday, October 14, 2005
Brittany was thrilled to see Bobby (now sporting some facial hair) standing at her doorstep. “Am I dreaming?” she asked. Brit showed off Joshua to her husband, bragging about what a good baby Josh is. Brit became upset when Bobby shared that she’s not leaving with him, and would have to wait “a while longer.” Bobby suggested that they make the most of their short time together, but Brit was concerned about how much of Josh’s life her husband would be missing out on…. Jill worried to J.T. that something didn’t feel right about what was going on with Bobby. Later, Bobby admitted to J.T. that things are “complicated,” then bid Brittany a tearful farewell.
Sheila put on her “Jennifer” wig, then answered her door to find Gloria standing outside. “Remember me?” asked Glo. “You should, you saved my life.” Jennifer denied that she’s Gloria’s “angel.” The ladies then discussed how they both refused to bail out Tom from jail. Glo warned Jen that Tom is dangerous; Jen suggested Gloria not think about Tom. Jen then asked Gloria what they’d been celebrating the evening she’d stopped Glo from choking, and learned that Gloria is Michael’s mom. Gloria praised Lauren, calling her future daughter-in-law, “gorgeous,” but a snooty Jen remarked that Lauren didn’t seem to be all that. A defensive Glo declared Lauren “perfect,” then shared that Lauren and Michael are going to be having a rooftop dinner that evening.
A poisoned Lauren continued to battle her “illness,” and began to hallucinate. She imagined a crazed dog barking at her, but still got ready for the party, donning an eye-popping cleavage-bearing black number. Gloria stopped by to give Laur a gift and wish her a good time. Glo told a feverish Lauren to take it easy, but Lauren refused to cancel the party. “What’s wrong with me?” she wondered to herself. Later, on the roof, Lauren began to hallucinate some more, and saw a shrouded Sheila. “You’re … you’re not real,” Lauren stammered. “Oh my God.”
Michael was happy to find that a fedora-wearing Kevin had called him over for a surprise bachelor party that he and Scott had planned, and not some family emergency. Nick also joined this rather quiet affair, and wished Mike luck on his marriage. “You make it sound like a prison,” joked Mike. “It’s more like a mental hospital,” Nick chuckled. The guys then smoked cigars (actually, it was more like they were just holding the unlit cigars in their mouths) and had a lot of booze for such a small group. Michael called Lauren to tell her he’d be late; as he was making the call, Kev called out in the background, “Hold on, the stripper’s getting cold.” Awesome. It’s the touches like that that make their brotherly relationship seem realistic. Soon, the final “bachelor,” Phyllis, arrived to liven up the festivities (and they greatly needed help at this point). Michael admitted that he’d been expecting a stripper, but was happier that his pal had shown up. Phyl then prepared to wipe the guys out in a poker game. Later, Michael toasted the guests, saying that “It doesn’t get any better.” He tried to call Lauren, but couldn’t get an answer.
Devon understandably freaked out when he learned that his mom is being released from rehab. Neil explained that she can still get help if she wants it, and that he’d try to get Yolanda’s stay extended. True to his word, Neil went to see Yolanda’s doctor, but the doc said she needed to learn how to stand on her own. Neil then went to see Yolanda, and was surprised by how put-together she looked.
