Another exciting day in Pine Valley ....

  Scene One

    At Erica's, Coral and E are talking about the business dinner. Coral
comments on the knockout dress E is wearing. After Coral departs, E sings
herself a little song "The bait's in place, the trap is set, all I need 
is a rat." The doorbell rings and Dimitri enters. He tells Erica she 
looks stunning.
   Over at the Bodine lovenest, An Li is stripping down to her slip. She
sits next to a half-naked Brian on the bed. She looks mournfully at him.
Finally, she reaches out and caresses his face. "Haley?" Brian mumbles.
   The dynamic dou detectives are at McKay's meanwhile. They discuss Arlene
as a possible murder suspect. Derek brings up that Will was killed by one
well-placed blow to the head. This is not the sign of a distraught mother
or desparate father. Mimi says it's the work of someone who knows what
he's doing. Derek says he hates to admit but the only suspect that fits
is Trevor.
   At the Chandlers, Trevor is trying to table the discussion of murder
suspects with Arlene, Adam, and Haley. Haley says she wants to know
who did it if it wasn't her or Arlene. "Was it you?" she asks Adam.
"You?" she asks Trevor. She says she wants everyone to stop trying to
protect her. The doorbell rings and Trevor goes to answer it. It's Nat.


  Scene Two

  Back at Erica's, E proposes a toast to the continued prosperity of
Enchantment. She thanks Dimitri for the flowers he brought. They 
discuss how it makes good business sense to bury the hatchet. Erica
gives Dimitri the prelimnary figures for review. Everything is up
despite the economy. E says it is the mall boutiques and thank goodness
she didn't listen to Adam. She says she follows her instincts when it
comes to business. Dimitri wants to know what her instincts tell her
about tonight.
   Over at the Chandler mansion, Nat is explaining she came because she
heard about Brian, she'll go if it;s a bad time. Trevor says no come in.
Nat and Haley hug and Nat comforts Haley, tells her to stop blaming 
herself for what happened. Finally, Arlene asks Haley if she won't
try to get some sleep. Haley arranges for Arlene and Adam to go upstairs
with her. Before she goes, she says a lot of bad stuff has happened but
it is time to start over.
   In the Bodine bedroom, An Li starts to kiss Brian who fully wakes
up. He tries to get her off but she keeps pursuing him. An Li says if
they are going to be married for three years, they can't live like
brother and sister. Brian says he doesn't love her. An Li continues to
beg Brian to make love to her.


   Scene Three

   Back in the Bodine bedroom, Brian gets out of bed to get away from
An Li. She sits on the bed, continuing to beg him to make love. Brian
says no, it wouldn't be right. Finally, the light begins to dawn on
An Li and she gets off the bed and goes to Brian, crying. She plays
the hurt little girl and when that doesn't get her anywhere, she tells
Brian to just go. He gathers his shirt and shoes and leaves.
  In Haley's bedroom, Adam is asking her how she can doubt him when he
says he didn't kill Will. Adam, again, admits he was wrong about Brian
and that he should have listened to Erica. Then he says he has to leave
to take care of something. Arlene says she will stay with Haley. But
Haley says she is just going to sleep. Adam hugs Haley before he goes.
Arlene does the same and says she hates having to leave tomorrow. Before
they leave, Haley asks them to take the back steps to give Nat and Trevor
some privacy.
  Down in the living room, Trevor is telling Nat her coming helped. He
asks about the Tim-man. Nat says he is spending the night at a friend's.
Trevor asks if she is lonely. She asks about Janet and the baby. The new
equipment is in at the neo-natal unit in case Janet goes into premature
labor again. Nat says she has to go. After she leaves, Trevor whispers
to himself, "Dammit doll, why isn't it you having my baby?"
   At the hospital, Janet is freverently telling Jeremy and Ceara that
it makes sense that Brian killed Will. They are not as sure. Janet
says he loves Haley a lot and brings up that silly little hostage incident.
She says love young will do anything. She knows she would go to the mat for
Trevor. In walk Mimi and Derek who Janet refers to as John and Jane Detective.
They want to know about Trevor's whereabouts on the night of the murder.
Janet yells, "He didn't do it. I know he didn't kill Will."

   Scene Four 
  
   Back at Erica's, the dinner has finished and Dimitri and Erica are
discussing the taping tomorrow. E comments on Anjelique needing him.
She apoligzes for the unkind remarks she made about him and says she
realizes he must have loved Natalie very much and that it hurt when
he lost her. The doorbell rings. It's Adam. E says she is busy and
tired and to go away. He says from the way she's dressed she must be
more busy then tired. He pushes his way in and sees Dimitri. He asks
what he is interrupting.
   In Haley's bedroom, she is tossing and turning. There is a knock
on the door and Brian whispers to let him in. She does and he says
no one saw him coming because he used the tunnel from the boathouse.
Lots of kissing mixed with concern about his being there and getting
caught. Halay says An Li was right about their being careful. Brian
tenses at the mention of An Li (and he looked like he developed
a nervouse itch). Haley asks what's wrong. He says nothing and
kisses her.
   At the hospital, Janet is saying that Brian is the guilty one and
the case is close. She accuses the detectives of wasting taxpayer
money. Then she says Nat sent them. Derek and Mimi try to calm her
down by telling her that don't have anything complicated to ask her.
She wants to know if that means they don't think she can understand
anything complicated. "I'm not dumb copper," she says. "I take the
fourth. Make that the fifth. A fifth or bourbon please," she laughs.
She calls Mimi and Derek flatfeet and says she will remain silent
on Trevor's whereabouts. "What about the miranda?" she says. "And
you didn't think I knew anything about the Carmen Mirandas." Jeremy
and Ceara want to know if Derek and Mimi could come back tomorrow.
"What's tomorrow?" Janet asks. "National Ratfink Day." In comes
Trevor who tells the detectives to leave Janet alone.
