GH:  Update for Wednesday, 08/26/92
===================================

Felicia & Mac
-------------
Felicia is sleeping in the hay when Mac returns from his trek into town.
He stares at her while she's sleeping, and eventually wakes her up by tickling
her nose with a piece of hay.  They chat and Felicia find out Mac located
a mechanic in 'Pocketsville' who's going to repair and refuel their plane
immediately so they can go on their merry way.  [I'd like to see them take
off in the middle of that corn field!]

Felicia thanks Mac for saving her life, and they talk a little about the
accident he had in Australia.  They have some nice quiet moments together,
and Mac actually admits Felicia is a good bartender.

Later, while they're waiting to leave, Felicia is keeping cool from the heat
with the help of some water she pumped from the well, and a damp rag.  Mac
comes in, opened-shirted and sweaty, so Felicia offers to cool him off ;). 
After rubbing down his back and chest, they stare at each other for a while
before breaking into conversation.  The plane is ready, so they take off for
Texas.

Once they reach the hacienda, Felicia gets upset that she doesn't recognize
it.  She spots a picture of herself on the mantel and is talking to Mac when
Maria comes into the room.  Felicia recognizes her grandmother and runs to her.

The Trio
--------
Karen and Jason are at Jagger's room talking about getting the money together
for Joseph Atkins.  They still don't have enough.  There's a knock at the
door, but no one's there.  Jagger finds a stuffed animal with a note attached.
Turns out the stuffed animal was taken from Karen's bedroom.  The note gives
instructions to deliver the money, and threatens Karen's life if they don't
pay up.  Jason wants to go to his parents to get the money, but that idea
is nixed.  Jagger suggests asking for more time to get the money together.
They reassure Karen they will protect her, and set off to figure out how to
come up with the money.

Later at work, Jagger tells Karen he thinks he has a way to come up with the
money, but he won't tell her how.  She doesn't want him to do anything
illegal, but he tells her he'll do whatever it takes to keep her from harm.

Later Rhonda shows up to visit Karen.  They argue over the way she's been
acting since getting back from the island.  Jagger tells Karen he's still
working on his plan.

GH
--
Eric and Sheila have a moment together - she just got back from vacation.
She wants to make a romantic dinner that night, but Eric is covering someone's
shift and won't be available.  After Sheila leaves, Eric tells Meg he wants
to get something special for Sheila.  Meg suggests diamonds and rubies, but
Eric doesn't like that idea.

Rhonda shows up to talk to Alan.  She asks how Jason is acting since he
returned from the island.  He tells Alan about Karen, and Alan thinks maybe
Jason's actions are related to the island, and not AJ after-all.  Rhonda
presses Alan to meet her for dinner or a drink, but Alan takes a rain
check.

The Pier
--------
AJ & Nikki are walking to work and talk about her hospital bill.  They
have the same tired conversation about his family and school.  Nikki goes
to work and AJ meets up with Jason.  AJ and Jason talk about their trust
funds - seems they need to be 25 before they can touch them.  Jason gets
upset and starts acting weird.  AJ confronts him about looking for a ton
of cash.  When Jason denies it, AJ asks if he got Karen pregnant.  Jason
tells him no, so AJ tries to get the truth out of him.  AJ wants to help.
Jason almost says something, but decides not to and runs off.

Eric runs into Nikki on the pier while he's shopping for Sheila.  He tries
to hide before Nikki sees him, but it's too late.  They chat, and Nikki
helps Eric by lingerie for Sheila.  AJ spots them and is jealous.  Once
Eric leaves, Nikki calms AJ down.

The Q's
-------
Everyone has breakfast on the terrace.  Jenny doesn't want to go (she's
busy with her designs) but Ned convinces her.  Ned takes Tracy inside and
confronts her about her visit to see Julia.  Ned warns her to leave Julia
alone and Tracy takes off.  Outside, Jenny chats about her spa designs with
Edward, Lila and Paul.  Lila offers the Quartermaine library for research.
When Alan shows up, Lila asks him about Jason.  She's worried about him.
Alan thinks it has to do with AJ, but Lila thinks something else is bothering
him.

Later, Paul sits drawing a picture of Jenny while Jenny works on her designs and
Tracy munches on a banana.  Ned stops by and invites Jenny out for dinner,
but she passes.  He gets mad and goes inside to see Edward.  Tracy decides
she wants to see what Paul's been drawing but he closes his sketch pad and
takes off.  Jenny and Tracy argue, as usual.  

Inside, Ned and Edward talk business.  Lila brings up Jenny's endeavor,
and Ned gets cranky.  Lila sticks up for Jenny, and Edward tells Ned he'd
better listen to her.  Edward is in the middle of going through his coin
collection when Jason gets home.  He shows Jason some of his coins and mentions
the values of some of them.  Later, after everyone has left the library,
Jason goes to take some of the coins.  He changes his mind and goes to leave,
but then goes back to the coin collection.  He's in the middle of pocketing
some of the coins when Lila rolls in and asks what he's doing...
