I'm filling in for Donna Wicks this week.

Our storylines today:

1.  Tad and the mystery woman (do we know her name yet?)

2.  Edmund, Dimitri, Angel, and Jack

3.  Adam, Gloria, and Stuart


Tad and the mystery woman:

Tad is totally fed up with getting no response from Dimitri Marick.  He's
ready to cut his losses and get the hell out.  She reminds him that he
was going to get "an education" and become well-rounded in NYC.  They 
decide to go out, paint the town red, and leave tomorrow.

The mystery woman comes in dressed to go, and Tad is suspicious because she
is ready 30 minutes early which is evidently against type.  He wants to 
know what the charge is.  She tells him to please call Dimitri one last
time.

Tad calls, Dimitri answers.  They arrange to meet in NYC "tomorrow".  Tad
will change his plans.  [surprise surprise!]

Edmund, Dimitri, Angel, and Jack

Dimitri finds out that Joe and Mona have ordered that he not be able to see
Erica.  Dimitri is furious.  Edmund gets off the elevator just in time to
back Mona up.  Dimitri demands to see Erica.  Mona was great!  She said,
Just because Dimitri Marick demands something it happens?  Guess again. 
Dimitri whines a lot, gets nowhere.  Joe informs Dim and Ed that Erica is 
going to be moved to a private hospital for intensive therapy.  There has been
no change in her status.  They pretty much blame her condition on Dimitri.
Dim begs to see her, to tell he loves her, and he'll wait for her.  Mona
come back with, "like Angelique?".  Oooo, slam!  Mona was in fine form.
Mona and Joe walk away.  Dim is going to go see Erica anyway.  Edmund
restrains him by grabbing his lapels and throwing him up against the wall.  
They have a heart-to-heart.  Dim doesn't want to "let this happen again".
He listened to the doctors before.  Ed stops Dim again.  Dim is afraid
that if he stays away, he'll never see Erica again.  Dim and Ed joke about
"bonding".  They leave PVH together to head for Wildwind.

Jack is at Angel's room at the Valley Inn.  Is she okay?  She's fine.
Jack wants to take her away for a couple of days.  She turns him down.
He finally gets into her room to discover that her bags are packed.  She's
leaving, going away by herself.  Her decision:  leave PV permanently.  Jack
is furious.  Angel is placating.  Angel wants to find out who she is.  She
has always lived other people's dreams...first her mother's then Dim's.
She buried her mother at Wildwind, and she buried that part of her life
at the same time.  Jack is understanding.  NOT.  He storms out.

Dim and Ed are talking at Wildwind.  Dim is going to leave Wildwind to Ed.
Ed doesn't want it.  Erica told him the truth about the estate.  Half of
nothing is nothing.  Dim then asks Ed to be his roommate.  Ed makes a 
crack about him being Oscar and Dim being Felix.  Angel appears and says
she thinks it's a good idea.  Angel tells the Marick boys that she is going
to Vermont for awhile.  Skiing, start painting again.  Ed says he'll come up
for a ski weekend.  Both boys are very supportive of Angel's decision.  Before
she leaves, Ed asks for her real opinion about his moving into Wildwind with
Dim.  Angel thinks it's a good idea.  They have a lot of catching up to do.
Angel leaves.  Ed agrees to move in.  They joke about it becoming a 90s
sitcom.  The wild brother and the stiff brother.  Dim says, yeah, maybe
you'll loosen up.  :-)  [There were some very nice moments between Ed and Dim
today.  It's a relief after the months of them shouting at each other.]
Ed wants the wall around the estate gone, Dim says done.  The phone rings.
It's Tad.

Angel arrives back at the Valley Inn.  Jack is waiting in her room with flowers,
champagne, and a candlelight dinner.  He apologizes for getting angry earlier.
He is behind her one hundred percent.  He says it was her strength and 
her physical attributes that made him fall in love with her.  She wants to
hear more about the physical attributes.  He says, first, those lips.  They
kiss.

Adam, Gloria, and Stuart

We open in the boathouse with Adam lying Gloria down on the bed.  They are
kissing passionately.  Adam starts to remove the top layer of Gloria's 
clothing.  He says, Gloria, I love you.  She slaps him, cutting his face.
She gets up.  No, don't say that.  Adam: don't deny it, you know I love you
just as you love me.  They have a doozy of an argument.  Gloria denying that
it is anything other than having the hots for each other.  Adam says it
is Grand Passion, it is good.  Gloria says it is the same as Brian and Dixie,
and what they have is bad?  Adam insists he is telling her the pure,
unadulterated truth.  Gloria wants to know if he has any swampland in Florida
to sell her along with his story.  Stuart wants to marry her.  Her mom was
right, she is a whore, a slut.  Adam insists she is just as obsessed with
him and he is with her.  She screams, you're right!  Stuart walks in.
What is Adam right about?  Gloria and Stuart leave and go back to Stuart's
house.

Gloria wants to leap into Stuart's painting.  Life would be happy there.
She agrees to marry Stuart.  Stuart talks about how when he met Cindy and
married her no one thought he was lucky.  Adam was always the lucky brother.
Cindy had this giant clock.  It didn't bother Stuart, but it bothered him
that it bothered Cindy.  Now he has Gloria to share his life with, and he
can use words like forever, and I want you to meet my wife.  Now everyone
will know that he is the lucky brother.  [David Canary
is so incredible.  This was a fabulously touching scene.]  Stuart is crying.
Gloria is crying.

They are finishing up pizza.  Stuart jokes that he should have put a pizza in
the painting.  They need to buy a kitten.  A knock at the door.  It's Adam.
He finds out that Gloria has accepted Stuart's proposal.  Stuart has to take
an important phone call.  Gloria and Adam share a l-o-n-g stare and Adam
walks out.

That's it for today.  Please feel free to add anything I may have forgotten.

Donna, I hope you enjoyed your vacation!
