Well there may not be a Monday update, but there certainly is a Tuesday update.
It's all from memory but one thing I do remember is CRICKET'S IN A JAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway...

***The meeting at Jabot.
John Abbott is courting everyone's opinion on the Sensuality situation.
Blade is the only one there on Dru's side, he says she made a mistake and
should be given a second chance.  We all know Jill's opinion.  Neil [the
slug] sides with Jill.  Then Carol rushes in, just managing to slam the door
on the bulging crowd of press people outside.  Carol says I'm sorry to inter0
rupt but there are media people outside.  John says well they will have to
wait!  We won't interrupt this meeting for them.  Just as they say that the
crowd breaks through the door [have these people heard of locks?] and crowd
around John, asking all kinds of stupid questions.

***Cricket in LA
Cricket answers the ringing phone.  It's Danny in the other room [they 
teleported, remember?] Cricket's nervous as hell, says that Michael wants
her tp put on the thong bikini [koff koff] he gave her, and he's on his way
back.  Danny says you aren't gonna do that are you?  Cricket says no because
then she won't be able to put the wire on.  They finish the convo and then we
switch to the other room where John Silva and Danny are.  Danny's a bundle of
nerves asking Silva what happens if this doesn't work?  Silva says don't worry
it will, we can hear everything [not]. Danny wants to stop it now, but too
late, Michael returns.

***The meeting at Jabot.
The media have taken over the place, begging John for an interview.  Jill of
course wants them out but John is willing to make a statement.  They ask
what does he think about it, is the fact that she's in Sensuality damaging
to Jabot, are they gonna fire her, etc.  John is ambiguous about what they
are gonna do with Dru.  Finally he cuts them off and Jill comes in and 
has her little say [tirade].  After that they finally descend upon Dru. Every
one wants them out but one media dude says I think she should be heard.
So they all crowd around Dru asking questions and she basically said what she
had been saying before.  That she didn't think doin it would hurt the company,
that she thought she would make Jabot and Neil proud.  THen the dude asked
Well there is a report that you're engaged to one of the corporates in Jabot.
But we don't see you with a ring on your finger.  Is that engagement now
off? or something like that.  It was then that John and Jill pushed the media
out.

***Lauren at Fenmore's
Lauren is inspecting some new stuff [crack] that's coming in.  She sees some
stuff she doesn't like and starts badgering the three other ladies that are
in there with her.  She babbles on about how she wants to write the designer
a letter to get him back on track.  At this point Brad steps into the door-
way. She looks at brad and says Well look who's here... Brad walks in and
they begin talking.  She says You weren't spying on me were you? And Brad
says something stupid.  I forgot, never mind.

***Paul and Scott at the lab.
Scott's doing his doctor routine and Paul walks in.  Scott, not knowing
it's paul says I'll be with you in a minute.  When he turns around he begin
to get angry and asks Paul what he's doing there.  Paul says he came to talk.
Scott says I think there's been enough talk for one day.  The two exchange
minor barbs until Paul says This doesn't have to be handled this way (ie court)
and Scott says, basically, Well the child doesn't need to be shaken up like
this, being dragged between two homes.  Paul blames Scott for being so hard-
lined about the situation and says Well I thgink you should bend a little.
Then Scott reads Paul the riot act.  He says You're not doing this for me or
my child.  You're doing this for Lauren aren't you?  You doing this to score
points with Lauren.  Paul denies it of course.  Scott says This little parade
is so self serving it makes me sick.  I have been the only continuity in this
boy's life.  I have been willing to let Lauren get to know her son, and now
with your helpo she's taking me to court in an attempt to take my son away
from me!  Well it ain't happenin.  Paul says well if that's how it is then 
someone is goinbg to be very hurt when all of this is over, and it may not
be Lauren. [this was split over a coupla scenes.]

***The meeting at Jabot.
Once the press has been yanked, John Abbott again courts for opinions on 
what to do with Dru.  Blade: Second Chance.  Jill: Can her.  Neil: Can her.
So he cans her.  But I must admit I really liked the way he handled it.  He
said, in part, Don't underestimate how impressed I was with you.  You exceeded
our expectations for a model with your experience.  However, when something
like this happens I must consider how it will affect our company and what
ramifications it will have.  And unfortunately, due to the circumstances
I feel it is necessary that we terminate our professional relationship.  [I
really thought this was cool.  No "I've worked so hard to do X and you've
ruined it, you're fired!! crap]  So John asks if Dru has anything to say.
She just says that she's sorry and she didn't mean to hurt anyone.  She walks
out and waits at the elevator, crying.

***Brad and Lauren
Brad continues schmoozing with Lauren.  He told her about his impasse with 
Tracy and how she's going to NY to be with Steve Connelly and she immediately
jumped at it, ie you're going to be a single bachelor again!!! [SLUT!!]
THEN, she has the gall to ask him to come to LA with her in September to see
the "Forrester Collection" [Shiela encounter?] Brad asks why not Paul or
Scott?  She says Well I'd rather have a man that I can look atr and feel
wonderful all over. [slut slut SLUT] Their lips shake hands.

***Cricket and Michael in LA
Michael has returned and is surprised to find out why Cricket hasn't put on 
that damn suit yet!! [I don't know why you would want to find out Michael?
Nice untanned FAT behind?!] Cricket stalls asnking why don't we work on the 
case.  Michael says there's no hurry.  He starts gettin all close to her
saying it's finally come to this.

***Dru at Black Barbie's Office.
Now before I say anything I want to know this.  WHY IN HELL would Dru go over
to Black Barbie's office for any kind of consolation???  I guess if you're
desperate...

Anyway, Dru walks in, now more mad than sad.  Olivia: Are you OK?  Dru:
Do I [$&#*(@)&] LOOK OK?! Olivia: Does this have anything to do with that
nude centerfold thing?  Dru says Who told you?!  Olivia: Neil.  Dru: [$#&($#]
NEIL!  He would tell you!  Olivia says Yes he did tell us, he said he
wanted us to be the first to know, instead of finding out from some other
source. Dru says It figures.  He abandoned me when I was down and out. THen
for some reason they start going into a diatribe about how I had Nathan until
you took her away, etc. etc.  I think Olivia had said that she knew how Dru 
felt and Dru BLASTED her and said you don't know how I feel right now.  Even-
tually this builds up to Black Barbie coming out of left field with WHy don't
you think about other people for a change?  Whhy don't you just admit that 
this is all YOUR fault?  Did you think Neil would be proud of men ogling
you all over the country in this magazine?  Why don't you try to think about
other people for a change?  Dru came back with You're just like everybody else
out there.  You abandon me when I am down.  I'm gone.  And she walks out.

***Cricket and Michael in LA

Now before I say anything I want to say this.  THOSE WHO WATCHED THIS EPISODE
NOW HAVE LIVING PROOF THAT LAURALEE BELL CANNOT ACT HER WAY OUT OF A PAPER
BAG.  If I were Michael Baldwin I would have realized I was being duped
much sooner.

Anyway,  Cricket goes along with Michael's moves as he slinks his way up to
her.  They talk about why they came out here and then Michael says put on the
thong bikini NOW.  So she goes into the bathroom, has a 5 minute conniption,
and then [rather intelligently on her part] comes back out and complains
that it's too small [got THAT right, I'd've called in if she would have
said it was too big.]  She says she'll return it later.  Michael says never
mind.  Then they start snuggling and Cricket does this horrible act.  She goes
Well if I resist your sexual advances then I'm off the case, right.  [Speak
CLEARLY into the microphone now Michael.]  Michael first dodges the question,
but still doesn't realize he's being duped.  Cricket moves closer to him
and starts kissing him.  She continues [very conspicuously] baiting him with
questions about the firm and if she doesn't sleep with him that she'll be out
on her ear.  Finally Michael says You'd be out so fast you'd never know what 
hit you.  Are you happy now? and continues kissing Cricket.  He says You
really know how much your job means to you don't you?  Cricket realizes
she has all the evidence she needs and jumps back and says NOT ENOUGH TO DO
WHAT YOU WANT ME TO!!!  Michael is taken aback by this.  He says Excuse me?
and Cricket says You really make me sick!!  You want me to have sex with you
so I can keep my job, or something like that.  Well I'll see you in COURT!!
Now GET OUT!!! Michael says Well, you haven't got anything on me.

Now stop the tape.

Cricket could have ended the conversation right there but no, she had to open
her big mouth some more.  Read on...

Michael says Consider yourself off this case and off the firm.  ANd Cricket
says Thank you very MUCH Michael, thank you very much!  [as she leans forward
so as to give Michael a better attempt to launch his voice at her hidden
microphone.] NOW GET OUT!!!  Michael says You know, you're a bitch! and turns
to walk out of the door.  He opens the door, and is halfway through when 
suddenly a light bulb appears above his head and he turns around and says
You're on a wire aren't you?....You've got this all on tape!  He steps back
in the room and closes the door and latches it, then slowly makes his way 
toward cricket, who's now recovering from a wave of sickness.

End of show.

Hope it was an OK update.
