--Bridget, being jealous of her identical twin Michele,
spiked Cory Hutchins vodka and
kissed him at the high school prom.
After an argument on the sidewalk
, Michele slipped and was struck by an
oncoming car and was in the hospital.

a ruse to make it appear that Michele
was brain dead, and he changed her face.
Michele returned to Bay City wanting to get revenge on Bridget.
---Bridget and Michele’s parents,
Vicky and Jake, have divorced,
and Michael left Donna
---While Brianna has set out to
fulfill her sick mother Taylor Benson’s
dying wish to kill Sharlene,
she has been building a relationship
with Matt Cory, much to Maggie Winthrop
(formerly Maggie Cory’s) chagrin.
Maggie sees that Brianna is wrong for
Matt, so Brianna has taken steps to
get Maggie off of her trail

You were having withdrawal symptoms.
