CASS: Maybe they chose someone with more experience?
CHARLIE: I dunno about that.
CASS: Guess there’s only one way to find out.
CHARLIE: You think I could...go to Dr. Mason and ask her?
CASS: Why not? Can’t hurt right?
CHARLIE: I’ll do it tomorrow. I’m gonna go meet Kirkland.
CASS: Maybe he'll help you to feel better baby. Anything else I can do.
CHARLIE (smiles): You've done enough already. Thank you dad.

FELICIA SITS ACROSS FROM TONI, WHO IS SITTING AT HER DESK. DANTE IS STANDING TO THE RIGHT OF TONI.
DANTE: Why are you so fidgety Mrs. Blake?
FELICIA: Coming to the police station to be questioned could be a little nerve wracking don’t you think?
DANTE: You wouldn’t be nervous if...there was nothing to be nervous about.
TONI: Dante. I got this. Felicia. I’ve known you a long time. If something happened, you can tell me. You don’t want anyone else to get in trouble. Right?
FELICIA: What is it that you want me to tell you?
TONI: I need you to tell me what happened the night of the accident on Route 17.
CASS WALKS IN DRESSED IN A SUIT CARRYING HIS BRIEFCASE.
CASS: Felicia don’t say another word. Toni I’d like to speak to my client.

PART 2
FRANKIE: What are you up to Christy?
CHRISTY: Why would you think that? I was involved in an accident and I lost a baby. You know what that’s like, don’t you?
FRANKIE: Is that why you stopped me here? To remind of the two other times I miscarried?
CHRISTY: No...no. I just...I need a friend. I need you Mary Frances. I know I’ve done horrible things to you and Cass but...you’re the only friend I’ve ever had.
FRANKIE: Really, Christy? Are you trying to tell me that you treasure our friendship? Wow...with friends like you I certainly don’t need any enemies.
CHRISTY: Can you find it in your heart to forgive me? Please.
FRANKIE: Nothing’s changed Christy. You used me to get sympathy. To get me on your side. I thought you had changed, but you haven’t.
CHRISTY: I have changed. I’m not that same person that…
FRANKIE: That let me take the fall for you killing Douglas? The same person that poisoned Cass? The same person who forced Cass to give you a sperm sample so you could get pregnant with his baby? You’re still obsessed with him, just like you were twenty five years ago.
CHRISTY: That’s not true. I wanted to be a mother. From the beginning this time. Whoever collided with me that night..is responsible for taking that away from me. Cass is the least of my concerns. I was on my way out of Bay City.
FRANKIE: So then why are you still here?
CHRISTY: I have a right to find out who hit me on Route 17.
FRANKIE: Listen I’m...I’m sorry for your loss. I do know what that’s like to miscarry. It’s a pain you never quite get rid of.
CHRISTY: I have a right to find out who killed my baby, and when I do…I’m gonna make them pay.

TONI WALKS UP TO MITCH AND DEVIN.
DEVIN: So...what’s going on?
TONI: Cass is speaking to her?
MITCH: Are you going to arrest us?
TONI: No. I’m not.
DEVIN: What about my grandmother?
---
CASS IS WITH FELICIA IN AN INTERROGATION ROOM BY THEMSELVES. CASS IS SITTING IN A CHAIR ACROSS FROM FELICIA.
FELICIA: Did MItch call you?
CASS: Yeah. Yeah what’s goin’ on?
FELICIA: They hauled me down here.
CASS: Why?
FELICIA’S EYES BEGIN TO WELL UP.
FELICIA: Cass I’m...I’m so sorry.
CASS: What’s wrong?
FELICIA: It’s all my fault. I caused this to happen. I don’t wanna hurt anybody else.
CASS: Felicia what are you talking about?
FELICIA: Everything just went so wrong that night. Lorna left; Rachel disowned me as a friend, and I saw Mitch with Sharlene. I was so...distraught.
CASS: What do you mean? What happened after that?
FELICIA: I...had been craving..liquor...for weeks.
CASS: My God. Did you...take a drink?
FELICIA: Yeah...I did. Then I went driving.
CASS: No…
FELICIA: Yes. I drove...down Route 17. That night. I swerved into the opposite lane and I...I hit...someone.
CASS: Is that why you’re here? I’ll...I’ll talk to Toni. I’ll find out what they have.
FELICIA: It was me Cass. I caused Christy to lose her baby. Her baby...and your baby.
CASS: What?
FELICIA: I’m so sorry Cass.
CASS GETS UP AND WALKS TOWARD THE DOOR SLOWLY, ABSORBING THE SHOCK OF WHAT FELICIA JUST TOLD HIM.
CASS: Wow. I couldn’t imagine it would...hit me this hard.
FELICIA: I shouldn’t have even gotten behind the wheel of a car after I took a drink.
CASS GATHERS HIMSELF, REFOCUSES, TURNS AROUND AND FACES FELICIA.
CASS: We gotta focus. You just sit tight. I gotta find out what they’ve got.
TONI KNOCKS ON THE DOOR AND WALKS IN.
CASS: So what’s the deal? Why did you drag Felicia down here?
TONI LOOKS AT FELICIA, AND LOOKS BACK AT CASS.
TONI: We have reason to believe that your client caused that accident on Route 17.
CASS: If you’re not going to charge her, then you need to let her go.
FELICIA STANDS UP.
FELICIA: Stop it! No more trouble!
CASS: Felicia don’t say anything…
FELICIA: I am responsible.
TONI: Felicia, is this a confession?
FELICIA: I caused the accident!
FREEZE FRAME ON FELICIA...SLOW FADE OUT...END OF EPISODE 264
Good episode!
ReplyDeleteFirst off, I would've never pictured Cynthia Watros as Vicky. However, now that I know she played the role in 1998, it actually makes it easier. And, I'm interested to see where you go with Vicky.
ANYWAY:
CHRISTY/FRANKIE: I loved these scenes!! This scene was a great way to show that Christy always makes her way to the top somehow. I'm worried what she might do though. I have a feeling she is going to go full throttle crazy soon! And, I can't wait for that! I love that Frankie kind of kept her cool. If I was Frankie, I would've beat the hell out of Ms. Carson!
THE CONFESSION: I liked that all in all, this episode focused on one big front burner storyline. I enjoyed the dialogue in this episode concerning Felicia's confession. I can't wait to see where this goes. And, I can't wait to read the episodes of her trial if you are going to write one. I also liked that Felicia owned up to what she did. That was very classy and very brave.
All in all, another good episode! Can't wait for #265!
thank you Casey
ReplyDeleteNo problem!
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous episode.
ReplyDeleteChristy comes to Frankie and Frankie, as expected, fell in line and was sympathetic. I don’t think Frankie will really be forgiving, but I do think she will try to be there for Christy, knowing how troubled she is.
Charlie and Cass discussing the internship. I hope Charlie fights back and finds out the truth. It’s gonna cause SO MUCH trouble. I love things getting messy, of course.
And finally Felicia confessing. What a huge turn of events. Felicia’s guilt leads her to shout out the truth, but she’s only partly to blame. What a great set of scenes as Cass, distraught by the news, still fights for Felicia even though his baby was lost by her accident. But then again, is that a baby Cass wanted to have?
Great drama, great set up for stories to come. You’re hitting all the right beats and it’s looking great. Fantastic shows!
