Written by:  C. Nathaniel Richardson
Consultant:  A. Washington Beeby
PREVIOUSLY ON ANOTHER WORLD:
--Brianna spiked Maggie's iced coffee with mysterious white pills
and planted a bag of white pills in Maggie's locker
--Brianna also tampered with Sharlene's brakes in an attempt
to kill her, per Taylor's dying wishes
--Christy spiked Felicia's club soda (episode 205) which caused
Felicia to have urges to drink. Stress caused Felicia to fall off the wagon,
take a drive, and cause a three car accident involving Felicia, Christy and Gregory

Lindsay Winthrop

AT THE HOSPITAL, LINDSAY WALKS UP TO MAGGIE AT THE

NURSES STATION WITH A FOLDER.


LINDSAY:  Dr. Winthrop.
MAGGIE:  Hi.  Did you send the notes from Mr. Jones’s therapy session?
LINDSAY:  Yes but I may to have to scale things back a little.  He’s just so
determined.
MAGGIE:  Thank you I’ll talk to him.  He has to give his body a chance to catch
up to his spirit.
LINDSAY:  Couldn’t have said it better myself.
MAGGIE:  I’ll...dictate them and...and I’ll…

MAGGIE STARTS SWEATING AND LEANS ON THE COUNTER TO
SUPPORT HERSELF.

LINDSAY:  Dr. Winthrop?  Are you okay?
MAGGIE:  Um...um yeah.  I’m...I’m fine.  Just need some water.  
LINDSAY:  Oh here comes Dr. Mason.  Maybe you should have her look at you.

THOMASINA WALKS UP TO THEM.
Dr. Thomasina Mason

THOMASINA:  Dr. Winthrop are you okay?  

MAGGIE PICKS UP HER TABLET AND SHE, THOMASINA,
AND LINDSAY NOTICE HER RIGHT HAND TREMBLING.

THOMASINA:  Come with me.  Let me take a look at you.
MAGGIE:  No I’m fine.
THOMASINA:  Just as a precaution come on.

AT THE HOSPITAL, SHARLENE AND JOHN ARE IN JOHN’S
OFFICE...
Sharlene Hudson

Dr. John Hudson

JOHN LOOKS AT HIS POST IT NOTE THAT READS:  alwaysbemyson

JOHN:  Well you know...I can’t write one for him because I’m his father.
SHARLENE:  Didn’t Maggie prescribe him a strong dosage?
JOHN:  I’m not sure but I can look into it.
SHARLENE:  I worry about him John.  I really hope this pain will subside for
him soon.
JOHN:  I’ll talk to Maggie about adjusting his dosage.
SHARLENE:  I’m afraid for him.  I don’t want him to get addicted to them.
JOHN:  Yeah we...definitely don’t want a repeat of what happened last time he
battled an addiction.
SHARLENE:  You’re right about that.  I just...can’t get it out of my head.  
Gregory’s injury would never
have been reaggravated if
he wasn’t driving my car.  He would have never have…
JOHN:  Come on you’re not blaming yourself for this are you?  
None of us knew that your brakes were tampered with.

SHARLENE FOLDS ARE ARMS AND PACES SLOWLY.

SHARLENE:  I mean...who could’ve done this?  Who is out there trying
to hurt our family?  

SHARLENE ANSWERS HER CELL PHONE.

SHARLENE:  Gregory where have you been?  I’m at the hospital with John.  
I thought you may
have come here.  
Okay good.  I’ll be home in a bit.
JOHN:  Is he okay?
SHARLENE:  Yeah he’s fine.  He had me very worried.
JOHN:  Gregory’s a big boy.  He’ll be fine.
SHARLENE:  I’m gonna head home now so...I’ll see ya later?
JOHN:  You bet.

BRIANNA IS DRIVING AND TALKING TO CHRISTY ON THE
CAR’S BLUETOOTH.
Christy Carson

Brianna Jameson

BRIANNA:  It’s all done.  It was easier than I ever could have imagined.
CHRISTY:  Good.
BRIANNA:  He left his password on a sticky note.  How dumb was that?
CHRISTY:  For what it’s worth...thank you.
BRIANNA:  Everything seems to be falling right...into place.

PART 2

THOMASINA SHINES THE MAG LIGHT IN EACH OF MAGGIE’S EYES.

MAGGIE:  Dr. Mason I’m fine.  I mean all of this isn’t even necessary.
THOMASINA:  Your pupils are dilated.

THOMASINA PUTS THE MAG LIGHT BACK IN HER LAB COAT POCKET.

MAGGIE:  I..probably have just working too many hours.  I feel fine.
THOMASINA:  I’m very concerned about this Dr. Winthrop.
 I’m gonna need to do a blood test on you.
MAGGIE:  Are you serious?  
THOMASINA:  You’ve been sweating and your pupils are dilated.
MAGGIE:  Symptoms of...withdrawal?  I’m not on any drugs!
THOMASINA:  Then you shouldn’t have a problem with taking a blood
test right?

MAGGIE NODS HER HEAD IN AGREEMENT.

------

BRIANNA IS ON HER CAR’S BLUETOOTH WITH CHRISTY AS SHE DRIVES.

CHRISTY:  This might be the last time you hear from me.
BRIANNA:  I’m not sure whether to cheer or cry.
CHRISTY:  Everything has come full circle,
but Felicia killed my baby, and she has to pay for it.  
Take care Brianna.  Hope all your plans work.

------

CHRISTY IS IN WOMENS’ BATHROOM WEARING A BLACK TRENCHCOAT.  
SHE PUTS ON GLASSES,
AND ADJUSTS A SHORT
BLACK HAIRED WIG THAT
RESEMBLES FELICIA’S HAIRSTYLE.

CHRISTY:  Time to pick up your prescription Mrs. Blake.

------

BRIANNA IS STILL DRIVING, BUT NOW SHE’S ON
THE PHONE WITH MATT ON
HER CAR’S BLUETOOTH.
Matt Cory

BRIANNA:  Congratulations.
MATT:  Thank you but it’s...it’s been crazy.  We got Iris out of the company though.
BRIANNA:  Some people get what they deserve right?
MATT:  What is that supposed to mean?
BRIANNA:  I mean...you know...she tried to kill Carl Hutchins right?
MATT:  Yeah she did.  Sorry I’ve just been real busy.  
BRIANNA:  I get it.
MATT:  But you know we’re gonna have our...own celebration.
BRIANNA:  I can’t wait.

------

BRIANNA DRIVES INTO THE HOSPITAL PARKING GARAGE
AND SEES SHARLENE IN THE DISTANCE.

BRIANNA:  Neither can I.  Everything’s gonna work just the way we want it.
MATT:  Well I’m gonna finish some work here.  
BRIANNA:  Okay handsome.

BRIANNA PRESSES END CALL ON HER
CAR’S BLUETOOTH, AND THEN SHE TURNS
HER ATTENTION TO SHARLENE.

------

MEANWHILE, SHARLENE IS ON HER CELL PHONE.

SHARLENE:  Oh Josie that’s wonderful.  I’m glad that
you guys were able to work things out.  Yes.

BRIANNA HAS A FLASHBACK…
(EPISODE 214)
Taylor swallows her saliva in an attempt to gain some strength as she weakens.
Taylor:  I need...I need you to do me a favor.
Brianna:  Mama.  Try to calm down okay.
Taylor:  They ruined my...my career.
Brianna:  Are you talking about John and Sharlene Hudson?
Taylor is getting agitated and it is weakening her.
Taylor:  Yes...I should have...
should have finished Sharlene when
I had the chance, and that’s what I want you to do.  
She destroyed my life.
Brianna:  What is it mama?  I’ll do whatever you want.
Taylor:   I want you to...finish what mama started.  Finish Sharlene Hudson.
Her monitor beeps faster.
Taylor:  I love my sweet Ellen.
Brianna:  I love you, too mama.


BRIANNA FLASHES BACK TO THE PRESENT
AS SHE PRESSES HER RIGHT
FOOT ON THE GAS,
AND ACCELERATES.  

SHARLENE’S BACK IS TURNED.

SHARLENE:  I was telling John that if whoever
didn’t tamper with the brakes in my car...
no they haven’t found the person yet.  

LINDSAY WALKS OUT OF THE STAIRWELL,
AND SEES BRIANNA’S CAR
(SHE DOES NOT SEE BRIANNA)
SPEEDING TOWARD SHARLENE.

LINDSAY:  Sharleeeeene!   Look ouuuuuuut!

SHARLENE LOOKS UP AT LINDSAY,
WHO RUNS TOWARD SHARLENE.
 SHARLENE TURNS AROUND,
AND SEES HEADLIGHTS SPEEDING TOWARD HER!

PREVIOUSLY ON ANOTHER WORLD
--KC Burrell and Charlie Harrison applied for an internship at Bay City Medical Center.  The Chief of Staff, Dr. Thomasina Mason, chose to hire KC, although Charlie felt she was qualified.
--Charlie's husband, Kirkland Harrison, is being blackmailed into an affair with Eric Stenbeck, who is dating KC Burrell
--A car accident involving Felicia Gallant Blake, Christy Carson, and Gregory Hudson aggravated a previous back injury he had

INTRODUCING MILES GASTON VILLANUEVA as "T"

AT TOPS, ALLEN, TONI, AND KC ARE SITTING AT A TABLE AS SOFT PIANO PLAYS IN THE BACKGROUND.
Allen Love

Toni Burrell

KC Burrell

TONI:  Congratulations.
KC:  Thanks
ALLEN:  My daughter’s the new intern at Bay City Medical.  I never thought.
KC:  Never thought?  I mean...you don’t think I can do it?
ALLEN:  No no that’s not what I meant at all.  I just...never thought I would be sitting here...celebrating my daughter’s achievements.

KC SMILES.

KC:  I know I was...tough at first but...you’ve been really good to me.

TONI LOOKS AT ALLEN THE BACK AT KC.

TONI:  Me, too.  So have you....figured out whatcha gonna order?
KC:  The filet mignon of course.  You and my dad are gonna pay for it.
ALLEN:  So you gon’ break the bank young lady?
KC:  Well you and Toni said you are gonna take me out to dinner.
ALLEN:  You right.
TONI:  Yes we did.  I just…
KC:  Just what?  Come on Toni don’t spoil this dinner by talking about....
TONI:  You’re making a mistake.  You’ve got everything going for you.
ALLEN:  Toni you’re right but...let’s put that on the backburner for now.  Let’s celebrate KC getting that internship at the hospital.  
KC:  I...learned that...I beat out Charlie Harrison for the position.  She didn’t seem to take it too well.

------

CHARLIE AND KIRKLAND WALK INTO THEIR SUITE.  KIRKLAND PUTS HIS KEYS ON A NEARBY TABLE.  CHARLIE BREAKS THE SILENCE.
Charlie Harrison

Kirkland Harrison

CHARLIE:  Kirkland talk to me.
KIRKLAND:  About what?
CHARLIE:  You barely said two words on the way home.
KIRKLAND:  Look I know you’re not cheating on me with Eric Stenbeck of all people.
CHARLIE:  Well then why do you get so upset when I talk to him?  He’s not a bad person.  He’s just...I saw him with his mother.  I mean...she was not nice to him.  He’s a human being like everybody else.
KIRKLAND:  Are you really falling for the okey doke Charlie?
CHARLIE:  What are you talking about?
KIRKLAND:  Listen...Eric is a grown man.  He doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to do.
CHARLIE:  He loves his mother.  Just like you love Vicky, and I love my mother, despite what they’ve done.
KIRKLAND:  You’re defending him?
CHARLIE:  No.  I’m just trying to reassure you that he’s not a threat to us.  You said something about protecting our marriage.

KIRKLAND GENTLY PLACES HIS HANDS ON CHARLIE’S SHOULDERS, AND LOOKS INTO HER EYES.

KIRKLAND:  I’m always trying to protect our marriage.  I love you.  I don’t wanna lose you.

THEY LEAN IN AND START KISSING EACH OTHER.

-------

JOHN IS IN HIS OFFICE WITH SHARLENE.
Dr. John Hudson

Sharlene Hudson

JOHN:  Hey honey this is a nice surprise.
SHARLENE:  I’m looking for Gregory.
JOHN:  Maybe he...went with some friends somewhere?
SHARLENE:  He came downstairs to the living room in pain.  So I went in the kitchen to get him some muscle relaxers.  When I came back to the living room he wasn’t there, and he wasn’t in his room.
JOHN:  Do you know where he could have gone?
SHARLENE:  I don’t know but he is in a lot of pain.  I think he needs a stronger prescription.  

JOHN LOOKS AT HIS POST IT NOTE THAT READS:  alwaysbemyson

JOHN:  Well you know...I can’t write one for him because I’m his father.
SHARLENE:  Didn’t Maggie prescribe him a strong dosage?
JOHN:  I’m not sure but I can look into it.
SHARLENE:  I worry about him John.  I really hope this pain will subside for him soon.

AT THE HOSPITAL, GREGORY IS IN AN EMPTY EXAM ROOM AND BRIANNA COMES BACK IN.
Brianna Jameson
Gregory Hudson

GREGORY:  I’ve basically been in pain since the accident.
BRIANNA:  So the...painkillers that Dr. Winthrop prescribed aren’t helping?
GREGORY:  I’ve already finished them.
BRIANNA:  You have to take them as directed.
GREGORY:  I was, but it’s not...not helping.

GREGORY WINCES IN PAIN, AND BRIANNA TAKES A CLEAR BAG OF WHITE PILLS OUT OF HER LAB COAT POCKET.

BRIANNA:  Look I...I got these.  
GREGORY:  What...what is this?  
BRIANNA:  Believe me, they’ll help your pain.  You only have to take one every four hours or so.

SHE GIVES THE BAG TO GREGORY.

GREGORY:  Where did you get these?
BRIANNA:  I...I’m going on break soon.  I can show you.

PART 2

ALLEN:  Well unfortunately we can’t everything we want in life.  I’m sure something else will come along for her.
TONI:  Let’s not worry about Charlie right now.  It’s your night.
KC:  Thank you.
ALLEN:  You got any other plans for the evening?
KC:  I don’t wanna spoil our dinner.
ALLEN:  Oh...Eric.
KC:  I told him and he was really happy for me.
TONI:  Look, we can’t tell you what to do or who you can see, but it doesn’t mean we don’t worry.
KC:  I don’t...see what the big deal.  It’s not Eric’s fault that he’s Christy’s son.  He’s not her.  He’s really sweet.  He makes me laugh.  Fine as hell.
ALLEN:  Take your time KC.  Do you really know him as well as you think you do?  
KC:  Do you really know anyone as well you want to?  I love what I know so far, and after I leave here, he and I are gonna have our own celebration.

KC PUTS HER RIGHT HAND ON ALLEN’S HAND, AND HER LEFT HAND ON TONI’S.

KC:  Listen I...I deeply appreciate you guys worrying about me.  That’s what parents do but you have nothing to worry about.  I will be fine.  

-----

AT ERIC’S, ERIC IS SITTING ON THE EDGE OF HIS BED, PULLS OUT THE NIGHTSTAND DRAWER, AND TAKES OUT A ROW OF CONDOMS.  HE LOOKS AT THREE OF THEM, AND HE LOOKS THROUGH THE THAT HE PUT IN EACH OF THEM.  HE GOES TO THE DRAWER AND PUTS THE INTACT CONDOMS ON THE SECOND DRAWER.  IN THE TOP DRAWER, HE PLACES THE CONDOMS WITH THE HOLES IN THEM.

ERIC:  Those are for you...Kirkland.

----

KIRKLAND AND CHARLIE ARE LYING IN BED AFTER HAVING MADE LOVE.

KIRKLAND:  I’m...sorry you didn’t get the internship.
CHARLIE:  It..it’s all so weird to me.  I took PR classes at the other school I dropped out of.  I got A’s.
KIRKLAND:  Why did you drop out?
CHARLIE:  I wasn’t really ready for the grind, but now I am.  This internship would have helped me a lot.  I just can’t wrap my head around why I didn’t get it.  
KIRKLAND:  KC told me that she got it.  I guess you would have to know what her past experience was to compare.  Guess there’s really only one way to find out.
CHARLIE:  Yeah dad told me the same thing...ask Dr. Mason herself.

-----

JOHN SIGHS AS SHARLENE FOLDS HER ARMS AND PACES SLOWLY SIDE TO SIDE.

JOHN:  I hope so, too.
SHARLENE:  Gregory’s been through so much in his life.  I just want him to be happy and...for some things just to go right for him.  I could kill whoever tampered with my brakes that night.  He wasn’t even supposed to be in that accident.
JOHN:  Yeah.  I’m gonna check with the police to see if they’ve found anything else yet.
SHARLENE:  Whoever did it was very clever.  They didn’t leave many clues.
JOHN:  Well we know Taylor didn’t do it.
SHARLENE:  Who would want to do something like that?  Who is out there trying to kill me?
JOHN:  We need to start narrowing things down.  Taylor never mentioned having any siblings or children.
SHARLENE:  So you think that...whoever tampered with my brakes is connected to Taylor somehow?
JOHN:  We have to do something...and fast.  If this person is associated with Taylor, then they might not stop at trying to hurt you.  They might come after Gregory.

----

OUTSIDE, IN A PARK, BRIANNA AND GREGORY WALK TOWARD A BENCH.

BRIANNA:  You feeling better?
GREGORY:  Yeah I am.  Better than I’ve felt in a while.
BRIANNA:  I told you they’d help.
GREGORY:  So why are were here?

A YOUNG GUY WALKS UP TO THEM WEARING A BLACK HOODED SWEATSHIRT.
"T"

BRIANNA:  This is T.  
GREGORY:  T?
T:  What’s up?
BRIANNA:  This is where you’ll get more of these from?
T:  You’re talking about the hydro?
BRIANNA:  Yeah I gave him some.
T:  How do you know we can trust him?
GREGORY:  Nah.  I got you man.  These are already helping my pain.
T:  That’s good to hear.

BRIANNA:  You got some more?
T:  Yeah.  

BRIANNA GIVES “T” SOME MONEY AND T GIVES HER A CLEAR BAG OF WHITE PILLS.

BRIANNA:  Thanks.

T WALKS AWAY AND BRIANNA FACES GREGORY, AND GIVES HIM THE BAG.

BRIANNA:  This is synthetic hydrocodone.  I’m gonna give you T’s number.  You text him the letter ‘H’ and the time you wanna meet, and you hook up here, at this location to get the stuff.  You can’t say a word of this to anyone...not to Lindsay; not even your parents.  As long as you keep your mouth shut, you’ll be pain free I promise.
