Hi, all!  Sorry this is late, but ...  I keep messing up my priorities!  I
decided to play volleyball again instead of taking notes on the show.  So,
without further ado ...

Alex's House
------------
Alex is confronting Jenna about breaking into her house ... again.  Alex
tells her to leave but as Jenna walks to the door she mentions Nick.  Alex
asks her what.  Jenna says she thinks Nick would be interested in hearing
that Rog and Alex schemed to break up his marriage.  Jenna will tell Nick
unless unless Alex calls the DA to drop the charges.  Alex is standing up to
Jenna's threats, but Jenna has proof of the deal:  the land for Mindy.
Jenna picks up the phone and tells Alex she has no choice.  Alex refuses to
call the DA.  Alex wants to know where Jenna got her information, who is
behind it.  Jenna says she always works alone, there is no one else in this
with her.  Alex must choose between Nick and pressing charges against Jenna.

Bauer's Anniversary Party
-------------------------
Harley and AC show up bearing a gift.  It is a slinky nightie for Moo.
Everyone congratulates Ed&Moo for being so happy together and having the
perfect marriage.  Lil leaves the room.

Ross congratulates Rog on his choice of companions (Jenna).  He tells Rog to
make hay while the sun is shining because she is going to jail, and Rog
can't do anything about it [ major challenge in the air ].  Rog tells Ross
that he is a hypocrite and knows Ross is hiding something.  He's going to
find out and *bury* Ross with it.  Rog promises to watch Ross very closely.
He mentions Blake and gets Ross' full attention, but he was just commenting
that Blake had managed to put him on the spot asking about his personal
life.  Ross says it is all part of the process [ but is relieved that Rog
doesn't know about them yet ].  Rog then asks about Holly when Ed comes in.
Why is Rog still there when he is clearly not welcome.  Rog says he is still
looking for Blake.  Ed asks him to leave.  Rog says it is Moo's party too,
and he considers her his friend.  Ed says if Moo is his friend then why
doesn't he leave rather than cause further problems at her party?  Rog
refuses because he want to find information about Blake.  Ed says he can't
help him.  Rog asks Ed to tell him if he hears from Blake.  The phone rings
- it is for Ross.  Ross goes to answer it.  While he is gone, Rog asks Ed
why he is so nervous.  Ed says it isn't just him - it is the whole town.
Rog will never be accepted here.  Ross hangs up.  Jenna's trial date has
been moved up to tomorrow.  Rog leaves.

Harley and Mallet are talking together.  Now that they have decided to live
together, where are they going to go?  Harley's?  AC's?  Harley is bummed
because things haven't changed much.  AC assures her they have.  As they
wander off, Lil wanders in in search of something [ but what? ].

Bridgett is on the back porch crying when Nadine comes across her.  Nadine
asks if her stomach is bothering her.  Bridgett says that actually it is her
heart - she is heartsick, but Nadine knows her tummy is bothering her and
gives her some crackers to nibble on.  Bridgett says that she just can't
handle this problem - this could never happen to her.  Nadine tells her to
confide in Moo, but Bridgett doesn't want to ruin their party and refuses.
Nadine asks if the doctor discussed Bridgett's options.  They brought up the
"a" word:  keep the baby or have an abortion.  Bridgett tells Nadine that
she spent her whole life taking care of her brothers and sisters, got
accepted to college and can finally *be* someone.  She tells Nadine that
"she can't" [ which I found ambiguous - can't what? ].  Nadine told her that
it narrows her options.  Bridgett can't talk to his family - they won't
help.  Nadine says she must be wrong, but Bridgett is sure that they won't
help her [ ha!  She doesn't know Rog at all! ]

Moo and Fletch are talking.  'Nessa called to say she caught and scaled a
fish.  Fletch confides that he misses her.  Billy is listening in.  Fletch
confesses that he made a very important decision.  As they talk, Nadine
comes up to Billy and tries to get his attention - she fails, of course.

Back to Ross and Ed:  Ross needs to call Alex to get her deposition since
the trial date has been moved up ... he is avoiding the Blake issue.  Ed
won't let him drop it and Ross confesses that he is worried that ole Rog
will find out about them.  Ross is worried about Blake, but doesn't know
what he'll do when she gets back.  Ross tells Ed that he must really hate
Ross' involvement with Blake.  Ed says no, he understands Ross better than
he thinks.  ross tells Ed he is lucky because he knows what he wants.  Ross
then calls Alex to get her deposition.  Alex tells Ross she won't be
testifying and wants to drop the charges.  Ross is stunned and asks Alex
what has happened.  Alex, however, has made up her mind and hangs up.

Back to Bridgett and Nadine:  Bridgett is worried that she will make the
wrong decision.  Nadine suggests adoption.  Bridgett doesn't think that she
could carry the baby and then give it up when it is born.  Nadine says lots
of girls choose that option.  Bridgett says she doesn't know any.  Nadine
says she does, and that it was the best thing for everyone.  The baby got a
good home and the girl turned her life around.  Bridgett wants to know how
she knows everything worked out for the best.  Nadine hestiates, but then
tells her it was Harley.  Harley has overheard the conversation, and goes
after Nadine blasting her for telling Bridgett.  Nadine tries to explain why
she told Bridgett, but doesn't want to betray her confidence.  Harley says
it wasn't easy giving Daisy up, and she resents Nadine telling Bridgett that
it was.  Nadine says she was just about to explain that to Bridgett because
... well ... because Bridgett is writing a paper for college next semester.
Harley gets even more upset asking if she is going to be a topic now?
Nadine says no, it is about single mothers.  Harley is very upset and asks
Nadine if she ever thinks of anyone else?  [ Fine, the one time she is, she
gets totally blasted for it. ] Is that why Billy won't come back to her?
Now Nadine is deeply hurt and runs out.  Harley is crying.  AC is behind her
- he overheard the whole thing.  [ AC knows about Daisy ... this has been
the topic of some wonderment recently ].

Back to Moo and Fletch:  Moo wants Fletch to tell her his secret.  He's just
about to (with Billy looking on) when Ed makes a very sweet toast to Moo.
Lil is there.  Moo and Ed lay their lips on each other in a very heavy way
... with Lil looking on.  Nadine comes back very upset and asks Billy to
take her home.  Unfortunately, Michelle chooses the same moment to talk to
Billy about some banality, and Billy follows Michelle to continue the little
talk.  After Michelle leaves, Nadine tells Billy she really wants him to
take her home.  He won't.  He wants to stay at the party and wants to know
what she said to piss Harley off?  Nadine leaves without Billy.  Bridgett
runs after her and apologizes about what Harley said.  She is sure that
Harley did not mean it, but Nadine knows better.  She smiles at Bridgett,
thanks her and says don't worry - everything will work out, as she pats
Bridgett's tummy.

At Alex's Mansion
-----------------
Roger barges in on Alex demanding that she drop charges against Jenna.
[ This was an excellent scene ].  Jenna is still there.  Alex thinks that
Rog sent Jenna to blackmail her.  Jenna tells Rog that she keeps denying
this and that she works alone ... although, Roger would be the *one* person
who knows what she enjoys doing with other people.  Alex is caught off-guard
and looks at Jenna.  She turns to Rog and asks if Jenna is another notch in
his bedpost.  Jenna says ouch! and that their business is concluded.  She
kisses Rog on the way, tells him she loves his tie and leaves.  Rog is left
bemused.  Alex accuses Rog of telling Jenna.  He tells her that it is not
true.  Alex doesn't believe him.  Rog doesn't care.  Rog tells her that no
harm has been done.  Alex agrees - at least *she* still has her son.  She
hopes he *never* sees his son again!  [ From the look on Rog's face, we know
that she has gone waaaaay too far. ]

At the party
------------
Harley is sobbing.  AC puts his hand on her shoulder.  She tells him what
happened, but he know because he overheard.  He comforts her.  It was the
worst day of her life when she gave up Daisy - she misses her so much.  AC
tells her it will be okay and we are left watching them hold each other
while Harley cries.

A little while later ... Harley thanks AC for being there.  AC asks if she
has any spare time tomorrow.  She says yes, she pulled the early shift, and
asks why.  He says so they can go apartment hunting.  This cheers Harley up
immensely, they hug and profess love for one another, and leave.

Lil is doing the dishes when Ed walks in.  He has been looking for Lil, but
she tells him she is not feeling very festive.  She doesn't want to join the
party, thank you.  Ed asks how much longer is he going to feel like he
cannot say anything right?  He tells Lil they have to stop "doing this".
He tells her she is his *friend*.  Lil tells Ed she *loves* him.  Ed stops
in his tracks.

Nadine's House
--------------
Nadine gets home and calls Frankie.  He's not there.  She walks over to a
mirror and asks, as she looks into the mirror, if she is so bad that no one
can love her?  The door opens behind her and it is Billy with roses.  Billy
tells her he wouldn't blame her if she doesn't want him to come in.  He
tells her that after she left he started thinking about what a jack a** he
has been and realized how much he loves her.  Nadine says waht about Nessa.
Billy says he has realized that whay they had is over.  Nessa loves Fletch.
He loves Nadine ... NOT!!  [ Nadine is fantasizing ... this was pretty well
done - *I* bought it ].  Nadine looks around and sees an empty house.

At Bauer's House
----------------
Lil is in her room when Moo knocks.  Lil invites her in and Moo tells her
how important Lil's friendship is, how she really wanted the opportunity to
talk with her while she visited but Moo's schedule has been crazy.  She
thanks Lil for her help with the party and for being such a good friend.

Ed passes Bridgett looking a little rough.  He asks Bridgett is she is
okay.  Bridgett says she is just tired and wants to go to bed.  Fletch is on
his way out thanking Ed when Moo holds him up wanting to here his important
secret concerning Nessa.  She guesses that he is going to propose.  Fletch
shows her the ring.  Billy overhears everything.

Closing Scene
-------------
The closing scene overlaps all the cast in their respective places.  Ross
sits by the pool wondering aloud where Blake is and hopes she is okay.
Nadine is sad when Billy really *does* walk in.  Nadine says "you've come
home!"

Rog has turned to Alex and tells her she doesn't know when to quit.  Alex
dredges up old things that Rog told her when they were in love and Rog was
being honest, that he told her how important it was that he get his power
back because of the look of disappointment in his father's eyes when he
looked at Rog.  Rog tells her to be quiet.  Alex continues that he will
never learn.  He will never fit in [ he's been told this twice in one night,
once by Ed ] because he doesn't understand.  Power and money don't really
mean much to people.  It doesn't earn respect.  No matter what he does or
buys, he will never fit in or belong.  He should have learned by now.  If
hwe had, his own son wouldn't hate him.

Rog has had enough.  He grabs Alex by the throat and tells her that when he
is through with this town, ain't no one gonna feel sorry for Roger Thorpe.
She will regret this conversation for the rest of her natural life.  He
picks up a picture of Nick on his way out, and smashes it.  Alex is left
with an apprehensive look on her face.

Th-th-that's all folks!  Please excuse typos.
