IN THIS EPISODE:  Felicia Gallant Blake, Mitch Blake, Devin Hutchins, Dante Carlino, John Hudson, Sharlene Hudson, Matt Cory, Brianna Jameson, Steven Frame, KC Burrell, Joy Kramer, Allen Love, Donna Love, Vicky Hudson, Thomasina Mason, Michele McKinnon, Bridget McKinnon,
 
SPECIAL GUEST: Marley Hudson Montgomery

Also:  Steven shocks Vicky; Matt makes an important decision on Brianna's request to leave Bay City

PREVIOUSLY ON ANOTHER WORLD
  • Felicia was lured to Christy Carson's suite.  Christy held Felicia at gunpoint and forced Felicia to drink a bottle of vodka and take flurazepam
  • Brianna Jameson came to Bay City seeking revenge on John and Sharlene Hudson, as she blames them for her mother's death (Taylor Benson).  Taylor died, but not before wishing that Brianna would "finish" Sharlene Hudson.  Brianna has already tampered with Sharlene's brakes and tried to run her down in the hospital parking garage.  Christy was the only other person who knows that Brianna is Taylor's daughter.  Frankie, John, and Sharlene are seeking to make a connection between Brianna and Taylor
  • Michele switched Bridget's tests at the hospital to make it look like she had chlamydia.  It leads to Cory breaking up with Bridget.  As a result of that false positive test (it was originally negative), Bridget was prescribed an antibiotic which caused her go into anaphylactic shock and into a medically induced coma
 
PART 1
 
AT THE BLAKE’S, FELICIA SITS ON THE COUCH ON HER CELL PHONE AS MITCH BRINGS HER A CUP OF TEA.
Felicia Gallant Blake


Mitch Blake


 
FELICIA:  What took you so long to call me back?
MITCH:  Herbal?
FELICIA:  Thank you honey but I can’t think about tea right now.
 
FELICIA GOES BACK TO HER PHONE CALL
 
FELICIA:  As long as Christy’s out there, she is a threat! 
MITCH:  Jenna or Lorna?
 
FELICIA COVERS THE SPEAKER AND TURNS TO MITCH.
 
FELICIA:  Jenna.
 
FELICIA GOES BACK TO JENNA ON THE PHONE.
 
FELICIA:  Look I can’t take that chance.  I won’t feel good until I know she’s locked up….Love you, too.  Please be safe.
 
FELICIA ENDS HER CALL WITH JENNA.
 
FELICIA:  Why haven’t we heard anything from the police?
MITCH:  I’m sure they’re doing everything they can to find Christy.
FELICIA:  Well apparently they’re not doing enough.
MITCH:  Calling Jenna and Lorna constantly is not going to solve the problem.
FELICIA:  Outside of looking for her myself, what do you suggest I do?  She threatened my family before she forced me to down those pills.  What if she’s planning to attack Jenna or Lorna?
MITCH:  Didn’t you just speak to them?  They’re gonna be fine.
FELICIA:  I did but…you don’t understand.
 
MITCH PUTS HIS HANDS ON FELICIA’S SHOULDERS AND LOOKS HER IN THE EYES.
 
MITCH:  I’m not gonna let her or anyone else hurt you.
FELICIA:  You can’t guarantee that.  She’s gotta pay for what she’s done.
 
SOMEONE RINGS THE DOORBELL AND FELICIA GOES AND OPENS IT.
 
Devin Hutchins


FELICIA:  Devin.
DEVIN:  Hey grandma.
FELICIA:  Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes?  Come in. 
 
BEFORE FELICIA SHUTS THE DOOR, DANTE KNOCKS ON THE DOOR.
 
Dante Carlino


DANTE:  Hi Mrs. Blake.
FELICIA:  Dante.  Please come in.
 
FELICIA SHUTS THE DOOR.
 
MITCH:  This must be an official visit.
DANTE:  You would be correct.
FELICIA:  So have you found Christy?
DANTE:  I do have news about her, and it isn’t good.
 
 ---------------------------------------------------------
 
AT THE FARM, JOHN IS IN THE LIVING ROOM PUTTING ON HIS SPORTCOAT AS SHARLENE WALKS IN FROM UPSTAIRS.
John Hudson

Sharlene Hudson


 
JOHN:  Gonna wish me luck today?
SHARLENE:  Why would you need that?
JOHN:  I’m scheduled to meet with the board.
SHARLENE:  The board?  What happened?
JOHN:  They said I prescribed Flurazepam to Felicia.
SHARLENE:  You write prescriptions all the time.  What’s wrong with this one?
JOHN:  It’s the drug that they found in Felicia’s system after Cass and Frankie found her.
SHARLENE:  It sounds like they’re making you responsible for what she did with the drugs.  It doesn’t make any sense.
JOHN:  Her Primary Care Doctor didn’t authorize it, so I have to answer for it.
SHARLENE:  It doesn’t seem like you would go rogue like that. 
JOHN:  That’s the thing.  I didn’t.  Someone broke into my doctor portal and wrote the prescription in my name.
SHARLENE:  I’m sure you’ll be cleared of all of this.
JOHN:  I gotta get outta here.  Are you gonna be alright?
SHARLENE:  I’m gonna be just fine.
JOHN:  I don’t like leaving you here, especially with Brianna out there.
SHARLENE:  Did you forget that you bought some protection for me?
JOHN:  I just want you and Gregory to be safe.  Alright I’m going. 
SHARLENE:  Good luck.
 
JOHN NODS HIS HEAD ONCE AND LEAVES.
 
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
BRIANNA GETS OUT OF THE BED, PUTS HER ROBE ON AND TURNS HER BACK TO MATT.  SHE TAKES TWO STEPS AWAY FROM THE BED.

Matt Cory

Brianna Jameson


 
MATT:  Brianna.  What’s wrong?
BRIANNA:  I don’t quite know how I want to say what I want to say.
MATT:  Just…say it?
 
BRIANNA TURNS AROUND AND FACES MATT.
 
BRIANNA:  I wanna leave…with you.
MATT:  Why?
BRIANNA:  Don’t you get it?  I want to leave town…with you.
MATT:  That sounds good.  I’d love to get away for a while.
BRIANNA:  No.  I’m talking about for good.  Let’s leave Bay City together.
MATT:  Babe you know I can’t do that.
BRIANNA:  Well why not?
MATT:  Well for starters I have my family here; my work.
BRIANNA:  Your family?  Everybody’s an adult. 
MATT:  That has nothing to do with it.  My life is here.
 
BRIANNA SITS BACK ON THE BED.
 
BRIANNA:  This might be our only chance at a life together.
MATT:  And why can’t we have that here?
BRIANNA:  Don’t you want a fresh start?  Somewhere where nobody knows us?  There’s no history; no baggage; no memories.  We can have our own lives.  It’s really a no brainer if you think about it.
MATT:  Brianna what is this really about?  What’s really going on?
 
---------------------------------------------------------------
 
AT DONNA’S SUITE, THE LONG RECTANGULAR TABLE IS IN THE CENTER OF THE LIVING ROOM COVERED WITH BROWN TABLECLOTH.  STREAMERS LINE THE WALLS THAT SAY:  WELCOME HOME. 
 
MEANWHILE, OFF IN A SHORT DISTANCE, STEVEN WALKS UP TO KC.

Steven Frame

KC Burrell


 
STEVEN:  Hey you.
KC:  What’s going on?
STEVEN:  Are you enjoying yourself?
KC:  Why wouldn’t I?
STEVEN:  Join the rest of us.  You’re kinda off in a corner by yourself.
KC:  Oh it’s not intentional.  I’m just…observing.
 
KC LOOKS OVER AT ALLEN AND JOY, WHO ARE AT THE PUNCH BOWL SIPPING ON THEIR DRINKS.

Joy Kramer

Allen Love


 
JOY:  This is a really nice party.
ALLEN:  My Aunt Donna really did it up for Bridget.
JOY:  Yes she sure did.  I wonder where Vicky is. 
ALLEN:  I don’t see Michele either.  I’m sure they’re on their way.
JOY:  You know…Vicky doesn’t really like me.
ALLEN:  Sorry to hear that. 
JOY:  But Steven loves me, and she’s just gonna have to accept it.
 
KC AND STEVEN WALK AWAY AS MARLEY WALKS IN WITH A STROLLER.  DONNA WALKS UP TO HER.
Donna Love

Marley Hudson Montgomery


 
DONNA:  Oh my God.  Marley!
 
MARLEY HUGS DONNA.
 
MARLEY:  Hi Donna.  It’s so good to see you.
 
DONNA BENDS DOWN TO SEE MARLEY’S BABY.
 
DONNA:  Oh look at my grandson.  He’s…
MARLEY:  Sleeping.  I wanna get him upstairs before he wakes up.
DONNA:  Okay it’s so good to see you both.
 
MARLEY LOOKS AROUND.
 
MARLEY:  I don’t see Victoria.  Where is she?
 
VICKY AND MICHELE WALK IN.
Vicky Hudson

Michele McKinnon


 
VICKY:  Right here.











CAMERA PAN ON VICKY.  SLOW FADE OUT.  END OF PART 1

PART 2
 
BRIANNA:  I’m sorry I…I love you so much Matt.
 
MATT GETS UP FROM THE BED AND WALKS AROUND IT.  HE SITS NEXT TO BRIANNA AND PLACES HIS LEFT HAND ON HER RIGHT HAND.
 
MATT:  Of course, and I love you, too, but why do we have to leave Bay City?   We can have a great life right here.
BRIANNA:  I’d rather go where nobody knows us.  We can start anew…together…you and me.
MATT:  But Brianna I still don’t understand why you feel the need for us to leave.
 
BRIANNA GETS UP AND TAKES THREE STEPS AWAY FROM MATT.
 
BRIANNA:  I get it.  It’s because of Rachel.
MATT: What does my mother have to do with this?
 
BRIANNA TURNS AROUND AND FACES MATT.
 
BRIANNA:  I don’t know if she told you but I came by the Corys looking for you and she pulled me in the living room to talk to her.
MATT:  What exactly did she say?
BRIANNA:  You know it was really nothing.  She just wants you to be happy.
MATT:  When it comes to my mom it’s not just nothing.
 
BRIANNA SITS DOWN NEXT TO MATT.
 
BRIANNA:  I shouldn’t have brought it up.  Your mother loves you and she just wants the best for you.
MATT:  She meddled in my brother’s love life.  I won’t let her do that with us.
BRIANNA:  Well then if…if that’s the case.  If we’re not here she can’t poke her nose into our relationship right?  I mean at least it would be harder.
MATT:  It would be. 
BRIANNA:  Look I’m sorry to spring this on you so suddenly.  If you need some time to think about it, I understand. 
MATT:  No I won’t need any time. 
BRIANNA:  What are you saying?
MATT:  There’s no need for us to wait.  I’ll do it.  Let’s blow this Bay City pop stand.
 
--------------------------------------------------------
 
FELICIA:  What do you mean it isn’t good?   You have leads on her don’t you?
DANTE:  This isn’t about where Christy is. 
MITCH:  Well then haul her in!
DANTE:  See that’s just it.  We can’t do that.
FELICIA:  You’re right.  This is not what I wanted to hear.
DEVIN:  What’s the problem?   She forced my grandmother to try and kill herself and you’re telling me that she can’t be held accountable?
DANTE:  We don’t have enough evidence. 
MITCH:  Come on that’s insane.
FELICIA:  And totally ridiculous.  I didn’t pick up any prescription for those pills.
DANTE:  But they were prescribed to you.
FELICIA:  How can you not get any description on Christy?  What about the pharmacy that they were picked up from?  They had to have recognized her!
DANTE:  We’ve already done that.  I had them retrieve all the records, and they said a dark haired woman wearing glasses and a black trenchcoat picked them up.
FELICIA:  WELL IT WASN’T ME!
MITCH:  There’s gotta be something else that you can use.
DANTE:  Mitch, if there was something else, I would have used it so I can get a warrant for her arrest, but I can’t.  It’s just not enough.
DEVIN:  So you’re saying Christy’s gonna get away with what she did?
DANTE:  Look we can’t just go around arresting people because someone said they committed a crime against them.  We have to have evidence.  I’m sorry. 
FELICIA:  Who prescribed the Flurazepam?
DANTE:  John Hudson.
 
FELICIA WIDENS HER EYES WITH SURPRISE.
 
 --------------------------------------------------------------

JOHN HUDSON IS IN HIS OFFICE AT THE HOSPITAL.  HE PACES BACK AND FORTH AS THOMASINA KNOCKS ON THE AJAR DOOR.

Thomasina Mason


 
THOMASINA:  May I come in?
JOHN:  Sure.
 
THOMASINA SHUTS THE DOOR.
 
JOHN:  Any word from the board?
THOMASINA:  Yes as a matter of fact there is.
JOHN:  Well?
THOMASINA:  I persuaded them to postpone your hearing.
JOHN:  That’s…that’s a relief.
THOMASINA:  It doesn’t mean that you’re out of the woods yet but it does buy you some time.
JOHN:  To find out who authorized it.
THOMASINA:  It looks bad John but I know you wouldn’t have written that prescription without Primary Care physician approval. 
JOHN:  So we gotta find out who broke into my system.
 
JOHN GETS A PHONE CALL ON HIS CELL PHONE.
 
JOHN:  Felicia?...Now?...Alright okay I’ll be right there.
THOMASINA:  Was that Felicia Blake?
JOHN:  Yeah.  She wants to meet with me.
THOMASINA:  Well go ahead.   You don’t need to be here now.
JOHN:  Thank you.
THOMASINA:  My pleasure.
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------
 
VICKY:  Hey sis when did you get in town?
MARLEY:  Not too long ago.  Michele hi.
MICHELE:  Hi Aunt Marley.
VICKY:  Where’s my nephew?
MARLEY:  He’s upstairs sleeping.
VICKY:  Well I’m gonna go see him.
MARLEY:  Don’t wake him up.
VICKY:  Of course.
 
VICKY GOES UPSTAIRS AS DONNA, MARLEY AND MICHELE ENTER THE LIVING ROOM.  BRIDGET GOES UP TO MARLEY.
Bridget McKinnon


 
BRIDGET:  Aunt Marley!  Oh my God you came all the way for my party.
MARLEY:  I wouldn’t miss it for the world.
 
THEY HUG, AND BRIDGET TURNS TO MICHELE.
 
BRIDGET:  Hey sis.
MICHELE:  Hi.  Looks like we’re about to get started.
BRIDGET:  You would be right.
 
DONNA WALKS TO THE HEAD OF THE TABLE.
 
DONNA:  May I have everyone’s attention please?  Thank you all for coming.  Our family has been through so much over the past few months, and I thought it would be a good idea to throw a welcome home celebration for Bridget, who as you know has been in the hospital.  This can be a new beginning for us.  Too bad Michael couldn’t make it but there’s the rest of us.  Bridget welcome home, and all of you welcome to her homecoming party.  Bridget do you have anything to say?
BRIDGET:  Not yet grandma but…Steven does.  Steven take it away.
STEVEN:  I’m very happy to be here with my family, and the woman I love.
 
STEVEN WALKS UP TO JOY AS THE FAMILY LOOKS ON.  HE GENTLY TAKES JOY’S LEFT HAND INTO HIS.
 
STEVEN:  From the first day I met you, I knew you were someone I could fall in love with.  No matter how hard you resisted, I somehow knew that you would eventually feel the same way about me.  I’ve never loved anyone as I much as I love you.
 
STEVEN TAKES OUT A BOX AND OPENS IT.  JOY GASPS.
 
JOY:  Oh my God. 
 
STEVEN KNEELS ON ONE KNEE AND LOOKS UP AT JOY.  STEVEN TAKES OUT THE RING AND PLACES ON JOY’S LEFT RING FINGER AS VICKY WALKS IN.
 
STEVEN:  Joy Kramer, the love of my life, will you marry me?
 
JOY PLACES HER RIGHT HAND OVER HER MOUTH IN AMAZEMENT, AND LETS IT DOWN.
 
JOY:  Steven I…I do.  Yes I’ll marry you!
VICKY:  NO! 
 
EVERYONE LOOKS BACK AT VICKY, WHO IS IN THE FOYER.
 
FREEZE FRAME ON VICKY.  SLOW FADE OUT.  END OF 330
