I missed yestarday's episode, so I volunteered to do Judi's Friday update.
(she is having trouble with her news server)

I got this as a "quickie" update for Thursday from another watcher...

Ally was daydreaming about the ball again, and these masked guys are
all wanting to dance with her so she's dancing with one of them trying
to figure out who he is (duh, lets see, his hair is in a ponytail -
now gee, WHO could it be?).  I also saw where Clay took Stacy home and
sent her upstairs to bed. Oh yeah, before this when they got to
Stacey's, JJ was there since he had been sent home for fighting -
turns out he's not getting enough attention from mom since she's been
at Trucker's bedside.  They have a talk and then CLAY takes him back
to school and smooths things over with the teachers (whadda mom,
Stace).  Anyway, Clay comes back to Stacey's and sends her upstairs to
rest and promises to wake her if the hospital should call.  The phone
rings and Shana tells Clay that Trucker is regaining conciousness and
that Stacey should come.  Clay says he'll giver her the message and
hangs up.  Stacey bounds down the stairs asking if that was the
hospital and Clay tells her it was JJ's school letting them know that
everything's fine now with JJ - Stace goes back to bed. That was the
cliffhanger.  I missed how Stacey explained to Trisha about loving
Trucker with all her heart (truely...).

Now, for Friday...  ------------ 

Hannah tries to talk Dinah Lee into leaving the house.  Louie shows up
with someone that he's sure will get her out of the house.

Clay wants Stacey to relax. Stacey tells Clay that it was a good thing
that she called the hospital, or they might not have known that
Trucker may regain consciouness. She's surprised that Shana did not
call. Clay says she did, but he wanted her to rest. Shana comes over,
saying Trisha and Trucker are with the doctor, they think the
operation was a sucess.

In the room, Trucker wakes up and says (very weakly), Trisha. Trisha
is happy.

Trucker asks for Trisha. She says she's right here, baby.

The doctor tells the people outside the room (Shana, Clay, Stacey)
that the worst is over. He faces a long recovery. The doctor leaves to
let the family know.

Back in the room, Trisha tells him not to talk, to rest. We have the
rest of our lives to talk. Is the fact that she is here her way of
saying she loves him? She loves him so much. He's her life. She's been
praying that he would come back to her, and here he is. She's always
loved him.

The doctor tells the family that there is a possibility of infection.
But he's alive, and he remembers. Stacey says there is too much love
in that man to die. Trisha comes out and tells Stacey that Trucker
wants to see her. Really? she says. She goes in and Trucker calls for
her. He tells her to come here.

Louie brings in a puppy. He said Jeremy called from Pine Valley and
said Dinah Lee needed something cuddly. Since he's not available, Louie
says, he got her a dog. Jeremy said it would get her out of the place,
since you have to walk a dog. Hannah takes Louie aside and asks him if
Jeremy is worried. Yes, Louie says, he is. Dinah Lee wants to give the
dog a name. Sandy? Gulliver? Freddie? Louie has a leash, let's take him
for a walk. (My unidentified source says it looks like a mut with a
little German Shepard in him - how long before he outgrows the show?)

Louie and the group go to Kate's. Freddie (the dog) meets Kate. She's
happy to see all of them. Louie and Hannah take Freddie for some
water. Kate wants to talk to Dinah Lee. She says she's scared, and
worried about everything that happened. She'll be doing someting at
home, anything, and the nightmare starts in her head. How could she be
so wrong about Carter?  Kate says it's not her fault. Yes, it is,
Dinah Lee says.  Every man she gets involved with ends in diaster.
Kate says everybody misjudges somebody sometime.  He's out there, Mr.
Right, somewhere, Kate says.  She thought she had found him, Dinah Lee
says.  Clay?  Kate asks. Yes, Dinah Lee answers.  She still remembers
the good times, even after all the bad. How could she be so wrong
about him? Kate says don't forget the love, just get on with your
life.  Soon, she'll be sitting her telling her about the new man in
her life. Casey comes in with the good news about Trucker.  Casey
wants to take Freddie to see Trucker. Dinnah Lee says this is a sign.
If Trucker can be okay, so can she! Hannah is going to take Freddie
home; Louie tells Casey to watch out for Dinnah Lee.

Leo tells Clay that they have Howard's shares. They have the majority
of the non-family held shares. If Clay can get Stacey's share's, he'll
have the majority of shares and he can do what he wants with Alden
Enterprises. Leo tells Clay to get to work on Stacye.

Trisha tells Shana that she overheard Stacey tell Shana that she loves
Trucker. But it's okay. She understands how Stacey is feeling after
she lost Jack. Trisha doesn't want her to get hurt anymore.

Trucker calls Stacey. He doesn't have to talk, Stacey says. She's just
happy to see him.  He says he doesn't remember too much of the last
few days. But he remembers her staying here to help him. Was he
dreaming? No, she was here. Trisha was the one that brought him back
and helped him remember everything. She was worried; we all were,
Stacey says. He remembers her sitting next to him. Trisha had to take
care of Christopher, Stacey says in way of an explanation. Trisha
wanted to be here, Stacey was just filling in for her. He's a mess,
isn't he? Trucker asks. No, she says. He's happy, Trucker says, he has
a second chance with Trisha. Yes, Stacey says, near tears. Trisha said
she loves him, Trucker says. Yes, Stacey says, closer to those tears.
He says Stacey is a good friend.  And then he thanks her. Trisha and
he both love her so much, Trucker says. She kisses him and tells him
to go to sleep.  She'll be back to visit real soon.  (My source says
that Stacey is watching Trucker fall asleep, and she has tears running
down her face.)

Trisha tells Trucker to rest, he's been through more in a week than
most people go through in a lifetime. She has a little visitor for
Trucker. She brings in Christopher. He recognizes his son. We're a
family again, Trucker, she says.

Clay asks Stacey if something is wrong. Nothing is wrong, she says.
Why the tears? She's so confused, she says. He gets her to sit and
talk.  She tells Clay that she loves him; he's her best friend, but
she's having all these feelings. Everything is okay, Clay says. No,
Stacey cries. What about me! She screams. Is she suppose to spend the
rest of her life alone? Stacey is cryinf. No, he says as he comforts
her, he'll be here for her, he'll take care of her, forever. (My
source says the show ended with Clay holding Stacey and Dinah Lee
comes in to the hospital and sees him. If looks could kill...Clay saw
Dinah Lee and he looks like a kid with his hand caught in the cookie
jar for some reason.)
