-------------------------------------------------------------------------
       Today's episode concentrates on Kim's multiple personality disorder,
the impending demise of Austin's gambling operation and Marlena's
captivity.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


KIM/CLAIRE (PLUS PHILLIP, THE KIDS AND KIM'S PARENTS)

       Phillip tries to contact Dr. Hensen in L.A. again to no avail.  Kim
is upset about sending the kids off to stay with Shane but realizes it's
for the best right now.  She insists she needs professional help, but
Phillip says they can get through this together.  Andrew comes into the
room and finds out that he and Jeannie will leave tonight to spend some
time with their father.  When he leaves to choose some toys to take
along, Kim tells Phillip it hurts to know that your children are better
off without you.  Kim leaves the room and Phillip receives a phone call
from L.A. about a problem with a movie schedule but refuses to fly out to
solve the problem because he has things to take care of in Salem. 
       Later on Kim, Phillip and the kids go over to Shawn and Caroline's
to tell them the kids are leaving town.  Shawn and Caroline are
surprised, and Kim and Phillip just tell them that Shane misses his
children and would like to see them.  They suggest having a send-off
party.  Shawn and Phillip leave the room and Caroline asks Kim how she
really feels about this.  Kim starts to reply, then Claire takes over and
says, "To be perfectly honest, I couldn't be happier."
       At the kids' party Phillip realizes that Claire has "come out" and
takes her outside for a chat.  He wants to take her away from there but
Claire convinces him that "mommy and daddy dearest" would think that was
odd.
       At home after the kids have gone, Phillip criticizes Claire for not
having allowed Kim to say goodbye to her children.  Claire says she
couldn't let Kim do that because Kim would never have let them go.  She
adds that Kim gets her strength from her love.  She then tells Phillip
she's about to seduce him.  Phillip says that's disgusting and asks what
Claire wants from him.  Claire begins to unbutton Phillip's shirt. 
Phillip tells her "this is sick," that he's Kim's fiance, not Claire's. 
Claire congratulates herself on having fooled the family ... says she has
power and she can have anything she wants.  She kisses Phillip, then
leaves him standing there distressed.


AUSTIN'S GAMBLING PROBLEMS (INVOLVING CARRIE, JESSE, TIM AND BO)

       Bo finally catches up with Carrie at the Brady Pub and asks her if
she knows anything about the gambling ring on campus.  She sidesteps his
questions, but manages to find out from Bo that the police know the
gambling ring is operating out of Johnny Angel's hamburger stand and that
they suspect Tim of being involved somehow.  Carrie tells Jesse about the
conversation.  She's concerned about Austin.  So she goes back to pump Bo
for more information.  She wants to know what will happen to those
involved if they get caught.  Bo tells her that the person in charge will
only get a fine and a "slap on the hand" *if* he hasn't had a previous
conviction -- otherwise, he's looking at a jail term.  Later on at the
apartment, Carrie runs into Austin and finds out that he *has* been
busted before.
       Carrie seeks out Tim and tells him she's worried about Austin.  Tim
isn't especially sympathetic because Carrie dumped him.  He does tell her
that Austin owes some guy $45,000 on a bet and that he doesn't have the
money to pay him off.  Meanwhile, on campus the guy who wants his 45
grand finds Austin and has a couple of his fraternity brothers punch him
out.  Bo arrives a short time later and sees Austin holding ice on his
blackened eye.  Austin says he ran into a door and Bo appears to be
suspicious of his explanation.
       Later, when Carrie sees the black eye, Austin tells her he was
mugged, but Carrie wants to know if it had something to do with the
$45,000 he owes.  Austin asks how she found out about that and she tells
him she asked Tim.  Austin pleads with Carrie to just stay out of this. 
But Carrie seems to have an idea.  She goes into her apartment and places
a call to Marlena's office but is connected instead to the warehouse
where Stella is holding Marlena captive.  She hears the message Stella
has copied onto the answering machine ... and so does Marlena ....


THE CAPTIVE (FEATURING STELLA, MARLENA, ROMAN AND ABE)

       Stella, the perfect secretary, has brought homemade meatloaf
sandwiches for Roman and Abe.  They're thrilled.  Stella comments that
Roman must miss Marlena.  Roman says he hasn't heard from her.  Abe
suggests he call her, but Roman won't do that because he thinks they need
time to think after the argument they had before she left.
       Switch to the warehouse where Marlena is calling out Roman's name. 
She's cold and she doesn't seem to know where she is.  Then she remembers
the fall and how she came to fall and she realizes she underneath the
warehouse.  She tells herself she must stay calm and rational.  When she
tries to get up she can't because of the pain in her ankle; she fears it
may be broken.
       At the police department Stella receives a call from Roger.  He
thanks her for the lift to the airport.  She asks if he's seen Marlena
yet.  He says he's about to call her.  When they hang up, Stella says,
"You'll come home to me, rejected and needing me."
       When Abe and Roman come by the desk, Stella acts as though she's
just finished a phone conversation with Marlena but tells Roman that
Marlena didn't call for him, but for some other reason.  She then notices
Roman is looking for some file and reminds him that he took it home.  She
volunteers to run to the house to get it for him and Roman gives her the
keys to the house.  When Stella leaves, Roman picks up the phone as if to
give Doc a call, but puts the receiver down again.  Meanwhile, Marlena is
yelling for help but no one is around to hear her.
       At Roman's house Stella looks around the living room, touches one of
Roman and Marlena's special wine glasses and picks up a photo of Marlena,
commenting, "You're so perfect, not a hair out of place."  [And she's
right.  Marlena doesn't seem to have a hair out of place even after that
fall.]  She remarks Roman would be surprised to see her now.  As she
picks up the file Roman wants she notices there's a message on the
answering machine and plays it.  It's Dr. Paul Whitman expressing his
disappointment that Marlena isn't at the conference.  Back at the
warehouse, Marlena discovers the bread and water Stella left for her and
is happy she's not going to starve.  She's also sure there must be a way
out, that she just has to find it.
       Stella shows up at the warehouse to ask Marlena to do her a favor --
"well, no it's really an order," she admits.  He shakes Romans keys where
Marlena can see them and tells her she knows where her kids live. 
Marlena agrees to do whatever Stella wants.  What Stella does want is for
Marlena to call Paul Whitman and make him believe that she's too sick to
talk to anyone.  As Stella looks for Dr. Whitman's phone number, Marlena
notices that Stella has her appointment book.  Stella places the call and
drops the receiver down to Marlena.  Marlena tries to give Dr. Whitman a
clue something is wrong by saying she was looking forward to his talk
about claustrophobia.  He reminds her that that was last year's topic. 
"Oh, that's right," agrees Marlena, "it's sleeping disorders this year." 
When Marlena finishes the conversation, Stella expresses her displeasure. 
"Do you think I'm stupid?" she challenges.  Shortly thereafter comes the
phone call from Carrie.  "See," says Stella (referring to the recording),
"no one knows you're missing."  Before Stella leaves the warehouse she
throws down some "food for the night" and threatens Marlena, warning her
not to make another false move.  When Stella is gone Marlena notices a
vent, crawls over to it, and begins to try to pry it open ....
