MAGGIE:  Russ.
RUSS:  Hey.
MAGGIE:  I know your shift is over but have you seen Brianna?  I’ve been looking all over for her.
RUSS:  No.  Is this about Mr. Rader?

JOHN:  You look so beautiful.  Can we practice now before we go to Chicago?
SHARLENE:  You’re not slipping this dress off of me just yet.
JOHN:  First you deny me and my office and now here.  That’s a disturbing trend Mrs. Hudson.
SHARLENE:  It’s gonna make tonight epic.

AT THE CORY’S, FELICIA WALKS IN THE FOYER AND APPROACHES THE LIVING ROOM, WHERE RACHEL AWAITS ON THE COUCH.  SHE GETS UP AND FACES FELICIA.
Linda Dano as Felicia Gallant Blake

Victoria Wyndham as Rachel Cory Hutchins


FELICIA:  I got your voicemail.  Is everything okay?  
RACHEL:  No.  Not at all.
FELICIA:  Is there anything I can do?
RACHEL:  Yes you can.  You can tell me why you betrayed me.
FELICIA:  What are you talking about?  I..I didn’t betray you.
RACHEL:  How much did she offer you?  Or should I ask, how much of the world did she offer you?
FELICIA:  Are you talking about Iris?
RACHEL:  Yes.  The competition.  The enemy.


FELICIA WALKS INTO THE LIVING ROOM AS RACHEL WALKS TOWARD THE BACK GLASS DOUBLE DOORS


FELICIA:  You view that as some type of betrayal? That was a business decision.  It has nothing to do with our friendship.
RACHEL:  Matthew and Amanda did everything they could to get you to take their offer, and you went with Iris.
FELICIA:  This wasn’t personal, Rachel.  I took what I thought was the best deal.
RACHEL:  And you turned your back on our family.  It has everything to do with our friendship, and how I look at you now.
FELICIA:  Rachel you’re being completely irrational.  
RACHEL:  You...and I...are no longer friends.


CAMERA PAN ON RACHEL….SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG…

BRIANNA WALKS INTO THE LOCKER ROOM AND MAGGIE IS RIGHT BEHIND HER.
locker room


MAGGIE: Excuse me. You can't walk away from me when I'm telling you about a patient!
BRIANNA:  I didn’t know you were my boss.  
MAGGIE:  I need to tell you about Mr. Rader’s medication, and you’re nowhere to be found.  Where were you Brianna?
BRIANNA:  I don’t owe you any explanations...Maggie.
MAGGIE:  What’s your deal?  What’s with the attitude?
BRIANNA:  Me?  Seems to me that’s you’re the one who has the problem?  Why?  What is it that you have against me?  I do great work at the hospital.  You can ask Dr. Hudson and Dr. Matthews.
MAGGIE:  Right.  And it’s fake!
BRIANNA:  Why don’t you be honest with yourself?  You’re salty because Matt and I are seeing each other.
MAGGIE:  That’s ridiculous.
BRIANNA:  Matt and I enjoy each other’s company and you’re just gonna have to get used to it.


BRIANNA TRIES TO WALK OUT, BUT MAGGIE JUMPS IN FRONT OF HER.  


BRIANNA:  Excuse me.  I have work to do.


BRIANNA TRIES TO PUSH PAST HER, BUT MAGGIE GRABS HER ARM AS THEY BEGIN TO STRUGGLE.


MAGGIE:  You bitch!
BRIANNA:  Let me go!
MAGGIE:  I’m gonna make sure Matthew finds out exactly who you are!
BRIANNA:  Let go of me!


MATT BARGES IN.
Matt Crane as Matt Cory


MATT:  Hey!


BRIANNA RUNS TO MATT AFTER MAGGIE LETS HER GO.


BRIANNA:  She’s harassing me.  I should report this to Dr. Mason.
MAGGIE:  Go ahead.  There’s nobody here to corroborate your story.
MATT:  I am.
MAGGIE:  You would do that to me Matt?
MATT:  Leave her alone!
MAGGIE:  She’s manipulating you!  Don’t you see that?
MATT:  Stop with all this...jealousy Maggie!  I’m gonna continue to see Brianna.  I don’t care what you think.

CAR - JOHN IS DRIVING SHARLENE.


JOHN:  I gotta make a stop.
SHARLENE:  Stop where?
JOHN:  Somewhere near the Center.  I want you to wait for me there.
SHARLENE:  Hmm you got wondering.
JOHN:  Well it’s a...bit of a surprise.


--


FELICIA:  Come on Rachel you don’t mean that!
RACHEL:  I mean it.  You know what Iris has tried to do to this family for years, and you take her movie deal over what Matthew and Amanda were offering you.
FELICIA:  How could you possibly think that I made this choice to somehow stab you in the back?  That doesn’t even make any sense.
RACHEL:  You don’t even see that Iris made you that offer for the sole purpose of undermining my children and their father’s company, and you went right along with it.
FELICIA:  This is unbelievable!  I didn’t take the deal to hurt your family!  
RACHEL:  As far as I’m concerned, you did...and you’re not welcome in this house again.
FELICIA:  Rachel---
RACHEL:  Get out!


FELICIA SLOWLY WALKS TO THE FRONT DOOR, AND SHE STARTS SWEATING.

CHRISTY:  I beg your pardon.
ERIC:  I’m not leaving Bay City mom.
CHRISTY:  Why would you want to stay here?  There’s nothing left for us here.
ERIC:  Speak for yourself.
CHRISTY:  You mean to tell me you wanna stay in this town with these people.  They’re gonna suck the life out of you!  Is that what you want?
ERIC:  I happen to sorta like it here.
CHRISTY:  You don’t like this place anymore than I do.  I’m offering you a way out.  You, me and the baby.
ERIC:  Well there it is.
CHRISTY:  What is that supposed to mean?
ERIC:  Your whole reason for being.  Everything you did.  Blackmailing Grant Harrison to get you out of prison; bringing me here; you getting back in touch with Frankie...all because you wanted to have Cass Winthrop’s baby.
CHRISTY:  It’s not all about this baby.
ERIC:  The hell it isn’t!  You don’t give a damn about me.  It’s all about this baby, and you thought you could just drag me along one more time right?
CHRISTY:  You are my son.  I love you, and I don’t want you to get hurt.  That’s the only thing that’s gonna happen if you stay in Bay City.
ERIC:  I’m building a life mom.  I’m making friends.  I have a job.
CHRISTY:  Friends?  Are you talking about Charlie Harrison?  You only befriended her to get close to...that’s it.  That’s why you wanna stay.  Kirkland Harrison.


ERIC JUST LOOKS AT CHRISTY...


CHRISTY:  What the...are you falling for him?  Son, please, you’ve gotta come with me!  If you think you have a chance with Kirkland you’re in real trouble.  He is not going to love you the way you want.
ERIC:  Don’t say that!
CHRISTY:  And you can’t keep stringing KC Burrell along either!  If she ever finds out your secret, there’s no telling what she might do.
ERIC:  Are you finished?  I thought you were leaving.
CHRISTY:  I’m begging you.  Please come with me.  Please leave me so you can be safe.
ERIC:  You don’t care mom.  All you care about is that baby, so you...and your baby...can get the hell outta my life!  
CHRISTY:  Eric…
ERIC:  Bye mom…
CHRISTY:  You’re gonna wish you listened to me.

AT THE CENTER...SHARLENE IS ON HER CELL PHONE SITTING AT A TABLE.


SHARLENE:  I talked to your father.  He seems to want to get in touch with you.  I know...whenever you’re ready.  


SHE LOOKS UP AND NOTICES A FAMILIAR FACE...MITCH.


SHARLENE:  Hey I gotta go.  I love you honey.


SHE PRESSES END CALL AND GREETS MITCH.


SHARLENE:  Hi.  Where have you been?
MITCH:  Went out of town.  
SHARLENE:  Oh.  Some R&R?
MITCH:  Visiting my brother, then I went to see my granddaughter.
SHARLENE:  How are Sam and Jasmine?
MITCH:  Never better.  I kinda wanted to surprise Felicia, so I came back early.
SHARLENE:  I’m sure she’s gonna be very happy to see you.  I’m sure she misses you.
MITCH:  I miss her.  You look stunning.  Why are you sitting here?
SHARLENE:  Waiting for John.  We’re headed out of town for the night.
MITCH:  Mmmm sounds exciting.  Can’t wait to see my wife.  I guess I should head home to see her.
SHARLENE:  Sure.  Well take care.  


THEY GET UP AND HUG.  WHILE THEY ARE HUGGING, FELICIA SEES THEM FROM A SHORT DISTANCE.


CAMERA PAN ON FELICIA...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 244

  1. Wow how the table kinda turned. It is now FEFE who is witnessing her husband hugged up on another woman in SHarlene. How ironic is that.

    Im so torn over this fued with Rachel and Fefe. I do think some of it on Rachels end is her still grieving about Carl. To say they r no longer friends is deep. BUt at the same time friend ships dont pay the bills so Fe did what she thought was right, for her. Iris never did anything to Fe. SO I really don't know. Rachel being a tad bit unreasonable.

    Maggie was tripping in this ep. All she had to do is log into the computer and change the dosage on the medicine. SHe was trying hard to go after Brianna. BUt she felt real salty when Matt took up for Bri. Maggie over played her hand big time.

    Bri sure moves fast. From spying on the Hudson to showing up at the hospital. Im team Bri so far.

    A great episode.. so much going on

    I LIKED your opening as well. THe best on thus far

  2. Great episode yet again. I'm enthralled by Rachel and Felicia's confrontation. Again, you got their dynamic down perfectly. Their lines felt natural and dramatic and it felt like watching the TV show. Brilliant. Felicia foolishly believes that her business decisions involving Iris have no personal implications. I'm glad Rachel called her out for that. It's not looking good for Felicia!

    Maggie and Brianna go head-to-head. Things are getting bad between them. Brianna's got an attitude with Maggie but Matt thinks Maggie is the one with the issue. I can't wait to see Maggie vindicated.

    Loved Thomasina standing up to Russ as well. Russ wanted to find a way to sneak into an authority position, in Thomasina's view, and she wasn't about to put up with that. Russ likely just wanted to give a helping hand, but Thomasina wants to prove she can handle everything on her own and probably has been treated like she's incapable so many times that Russ asking to help probably seemed like more condescension. Great scene.

    Eric standing up to Christy as well. He isn't ready to let go. You can tell love really matters to him. But whose? Is it all a game to him or does he really have feelings for any of the people he's stringing along?

    I loved the dynamics in this episode. Fantastic work!
