Cortlandt Manor:
-----------------
Craig informs Ditsie that Steven's in love with her (having just returned
from his little 'tiff' with the Doc.).  Dixie wants to know why Craig would
be acting so jealously, she loves him and not Steve.  Craig explains once
again, that he's afraid Steve will tell her lies about him.  (Seems like Craig
claims that everyone is lying about him for some reason or another-so why 
doesn't Dits find this just a wee bit suspicious?  I guess she's got Haley's
"the whole world is out to destroy me" syndrome)

As Steve is watching the tape, Dits drops by to have a discussion.  Hiding the
tape, he blurts it out:  "I love you Ditsie!".  She tells him to back the f*ck
off, she's married & they're FRIENDS.  When he starts to tell her (picking up
the tape) that "maybe she doesn't know the real Craig", Dits gets real P-Oed.
"I didn't listen to Will, my own brother when he lied about my husband, so 
what makes you think I'd listen to YOU?"  (harsh!)  

Back at the manor, Melanie has called asking for Ditsie.  Craig took the call
& chatted it up, when Lanie asked if Dits would come see her in Paris.  Craig
thinks it's a great idea-she needs a break from the stress.  When she gets home,
she agrees to go to Paris first thing in the morning, "I'll go pack my bags"
(Damn!  Must be nice to be able to afford trans-Atlantic plane tickets on the
day of the flight!)

Station House:
--------------
Mimi & Derek look over the Lawson File & note comments about $25,000 transfer,
the Cortlandt Electronics account number, the login of the nurses station at
PVH, etc.. (no significant details contained, but they send someone to work
on finding out more).  "why would Will be working on it, since his embezzlement
story had been discredited...he must have had something more on Lawson...
something concrete...enough to kill for!"  So, move Lawson up one on the suspect
list.  They decide they've got to follow up the gun thing, and send for a cop
to help them.  (continued in following section...)

Chez Chandler
-------------
Arlene's worried about Haley's quickly-recovering memory & worries she might
remember that she was there.  They discuss the gun and other ultra-incriminating
double-speak "we did what we had to do, will's outta the picture, etc..." all
while Trevor's on the patio listening through the open (duh!) French doors.  He
immediately rings up Muhatma on the Pac-Tel & tells him to get his scuba gear.
They figure out the closest point on the river to the route Chandler took from
the house to the hospital the day he ditched the gun & get ready to dive in.
Up walks Detectives Frye & Reed with the gun in a baggie.  They all feel 
foolish for a sec., then Trev realizes that this is a good sign, that they're
still considering other suspects.  Der & Mims refuse to let Trev team up with
them on the investigation-he's still too close to the case (and a suspect).

Mims & Der run a check on the gun & discover it was purchased by Arlene Dillon
Vaugn on the DAY Will was killed.  Move that lady UP on the suspect list!

Trev goes to Chandler's to get the scoop from Arlene & why she's covering for
Adam.  (Mini-cliffhanger, real mini...)

Casa Frye:
----------
Tom & Livia are gettin' down on the couch when a newly-crippled Terrence (on
crutches from "basketball sprain") shows up.  He wants Mommy to help Brian out
with his defense & also to convince Uncle Der. not to prosecute him.  Guess
who should show up at the front door?  yep, it's the Breakmeister, who is
immediately concerned about Terrence's injury to which Terrence tells him it's
nunna hiz bizness!  Pops offers to help out with Brian & Terrence informs him
that he don't need his help.  Livia reprimands T (!!!) for being so rude (!?)
& he's in disbelief & storms (hobbles) out "to go fill in at the health club
for Brian"-yeah, lotta help he'll be on crutches.  Luke thanks Livia & leaves.
When they're finally alone, Tom pops the question & Livia accepts.  They 
decide to go upstairs & procreate (ok, they didn't explicitly state their 
purpose, but you know it's about time Tom became a REAL daddy.  Regardless of
the fact that I think Tom is rather unattractive, I think a Livia/Tom love-
child would be REALLY cute!)

Lucas walks into his office to find Terrence trying on his hard-hat. (this was
really cute, T looks hella embarassed when Lucas walks in).  T says he's there
to apologize for being a jerk.  He admire's daddy's cool office, making Lucas
think things are getting better, and so he invites T to dinner.  T is definitely
NOT ready, makes some flimsy excuse about how hard his work is senior year
(yeah, right, I don't remember that!), so Lucas backs off.  

Dat's it!  entirely uneventful 'cept for the upcoming nuptuals & the gun...
