Dixie forgets to close front door....
Brian and Dixie are hugging and of course due to soap law #101 someone
sees them -- Gloria.  Dixie sees Gloria as Gloria is turning away to
leave.  Gloria excuses herself and says she has to go.  Dix won't hear
it though she insists that Gloria come inside stating 'Before you go
blabbing this to the world, there is SOMETHING I have to say.

<My note: By the way, did anyone else think that Gloria looked
exceptionally nice in this scene?  I thought her makeup/hair/dress all
looked superb!>

Gloria says that she no intention of blabbing to anyone.  Dixie again
suggests she come inside anyway.  Gloria tries again to leave, "I've
come at a bad time, I'll go."  Dixie says 'I would APPRECIATE it if
you came in."

Gloria offhandly says "Hi Brian." as she steps inside.  She also says
"Whatever is between you two is your business.  I just wanted to stop
by..." Dix cuts her off with "Yeah stop by and get some information
for the rumor mill."  Brian tries to break in but Dix keeps going "You
don't know how vindictive she can be."

"You are wrong about me,"  says Gloria, "I stopped by to apologize
about getting mad at the hospital."  Dix cuts in with "No, you enjoyed
making a fool out of me to Adam."  "Dixie, I am a good nurse and when
my ethics are challenged I get mad."  Dix yet again cuts her off, "YOU
are lecturing ME about ethics!?"

Brian tuens to Dixie and says "She is apologizing."  and to Gloria,
"This isn't a comfortable situation so let's lay the cards on the
table -- Yes there is something going on between Dixie and me.  It is
real recent and kinda nice.  And its something we want to keep real
private.  That's the deal."

"Okay I can respect that."Says Gloria, "But, anyone could have seen
you especially that ONE person you don't want to."  Brian cuts and
corrects her with "Persons -- Adam and hailey."

Gloria ashonished says "you HONESTLY think I would run to Adam with
this...I wouldn't give Adam a weather report not much less gossip that
isn't any of his business."

Brian goes on about how Hailey doesn't need it right now etc....
Gloria says "you both think I would find pleasure in sticking a knife
in Hailey's back and that I have no feelings.  But I've been exactly
where you are right now -- laying awake at night wondering how you are
hurting people you care about (pause) and respect."

<the light goes on...> "I think she means me." Says Dix to Brian.

"Dixie, I miss our friendship.  i came by to apologize not spy.  i
just wanted to talk and say I was sorry."  

Brian say that he thinks they can trust Gloria.

"Dixie, I am sorry for my part in what you lost.  If I had it to do
all over again, I would do it differently."

"I wish I could believe that!"

"i don't want to cause anyone pain ever again and if I knew how to win
back your friendship I'd...."

Dixie interjects that Gloria already tried to win back her freindship
with the bank deposit for Junior.  But Gloria says that she did that
because she wanted to give back money that wasn't hers and that it was
the bank's fault for sending her the statement.  Dixie says that
though she accepted for Junior she admits she wasn't very gracious.
Gloria says "you were nice and made a sincere effort which I should
have remembered before jumping on you at the hospital."

Brian <or should I say brain?> comes up with an idea for both of them
to say they are sorry at the same time.  He says it worked for Junior
and one of his friends.  So they say it.  Gloria thanks Brian and
wishes them good luck and leaves.

Dixie closes the door <Hey Dix ever heard of the expression 'closing
the barndoor after the horse is gone'?> and tells Brian that she
thinks she left the door open cause she wants their relationship out
in the open.  "I wouldn't mind if the whoel whole knew."  "Whole world
minus Hailey." Says Brian.

Brian tells Dix he got his last paycheck.  Dix still is going on about
how it is harder every day to hide.  Brian suddenly says that he has
to go see Adam but not about them!  (see below for details)


Meanwhile at the Chandler Mansion....
Adam tries to tell Hailey jokes and such to get her to smile but
nothing works because she is upset about Brian.  She rants and
raves..."I am a freak!"  Adam says "No you aren't."  She responds with
"Oh no?  How many recovering alcoholics still virginal widows of
murdered rapists do you know?  Not many of us, roaming around the PVU
campus!"  <Ah, so that is where she is going to college....>

Adam tells her she is more then that and she comes back with "True.  I
am the adult child of an alcoholic in prison!"  <Sorry folks but I
couldn't resist repeating these lines for those of you that didnt get
to see it today...>

Adam goes on about how beautiful she is etc. and then reminds her that
she is the one who dropped Brian.  "You can't have it both ways!"  He
tells her that "Forgiveness frees the person doing the forgiving as
well as the receiver."  At this moment, Hailey realizes that Adam is
right and that she loves Brian and wants him back.  She tells Adam
that she is going to fight for Brian starting as of right then.  Adam
offers his help but she says if she can't do it herself that she
doesn't deserve Brian.  She tells Adam that she loves him and she
leaves the house. (see below for details)

Adam is remembering the scene at the restaurant with Gloria when he
gave her the bracelet as Stuart and she said she couldnt take it cause
it wouldnt be right and then Brian shows up and gives him the last
payment (from his paycheck to Adam for the ring.  Adam tells him how
Timmy 
appreciated him being at the hospital and that Tim would love if the
two got back together -- is there any possibility?  Brian tells him
that it is over and that he should keep his obeservations to himself.
Brian also asks him to "stay out of Hailey's face" about it too.  It
is over.  He leaves.


Hailey shows up at Dixie's....
Dixie tells that Junior isn't home but Dixie explains that Adam helped
her to realize how she wants Brain back but since he is a male she has
come to Dixie for her help. [1st cliffhanger]


Galen and Carter alone?!
Galen pulls the gun out her pocketbook and puts it at Carter saying,
"I am not afraid of you anymore."  Charlie walks in on her holding it
on Carter and tries to convince her to put it down.  Carter says lets
take a picture for a new DA poster!  Charlie says he is calling the
police but Galen tells him not to that "This man needs to be taught a
lesson that he wont forget."  Carter comes back with insults like
"This gutless woman hates men!"  And she says "Not all men!  I wanna
see you have fear in your eyes....etc."  he says "Do I look like I am
fearful?  I was too much man for you.  Think of the publicity.  Go
ahead shoot me.  DO IT!!!!!!"

Galen breaks down. "You are sick.  you don't care if you die just so
long as you hurt me!"  She puts the gun down.

Charlie convinces Carter to leave just as Steven shows up.  He asks if
she is okay and notices the gun.  Carter before leaving tells her how
nice her hair looks.  Galen tells Steven the whole story and
apologizes.  She puts the loaded gun in the middle desk drawer and
locks it.


Charlie and Carter are sitting at a bar...
Carter goes on about how Galen hates men and how it is all her fault.
He says when they were married she had no displine and no strength.
She learned everything from him and then destroyed his life, suddenly
becoiming independent.  "I have to prove to her that I am still
smarter than her."

CHarlie says that it is too bad that they ended up in the same town.
carter says not necessarily...."She thinks she can point a gun at me
well she needs to learn a lesson..." And makes motions like he holding
a gun in his hands... [2nd cliffhanger]


Gloria and Stewart are having spitting watermelon seeds contests...
when Adam arrives and asks to joing them.  [3rd cliffhanger] <And hei
isn't in a suit....hmmm>


Erica at the hospital...
Erica picks up a Bible on the nightstand telling Nick that her
mother's grandparents gave it to her when she was 16 and that she is
going to give it to Bianca when she is sixteen.  <God help us all --
Bianca sixteen years old!! EEK!!!>  Nick tells that Mona will be fine
and will do just that.

Erica frets about the length of the surgery and then says "Why did you
let me have that arguement with my mother right before she went into
surgery?  I was so insensitve..."

Nick tells that in spite of Erica, Mona will be fine cause she is a
fighter like Erica.  

Joe comes in and tells them that the surgery was a success.  "Mona is
fine and inrecovery.  All indications that the cancer hasn't spread."
Erica asks if her mother is cured.  Joe responds with "We don't use
the word cured at this stage but it looks good."  Erica says she wants
to be with her when she wakes up and tell her that.

Joe leaves and Ruth stops by and hugs Erica and Nick.  Flowers arrive
for Mona from Bianca.  Erica thanks Ruth for all the care that was
given to Mona.  Ruth says she is glad for a happy ending and leaves.

Erica asks Nick why he doesnt move back to Pine Valley but Nick says
he loves his job and his life in Chicago.  Erica tells him that he
will be missed.


Next we see Erica in Mona's room.  She holds Mona hand and MOna wakes
up.  She tells her the good news but Mona asks if she is telling the
truth.  Erica says "I knew you'd say that."  Shows Mona the Bible and
puts her hand on it saying "I am telling you the truth, so help me
God."  Mona still doesnt believe her but Erica says "Mom do you really
think I would lie with my hand on a Bible?"  Mona says "I told you
so!"  Erica replies with "And I told YOU that if anyone could lick
this thing that you could...And you will be licking it for a long
time.  I love you.  You are the best!"  "I love you too baby!" [Final
cliffhanger]
