   "Who'll Kill Izzy?"---- a fantasy by Apple B. Peel
 
[ed. notes-- 1. Staci's contract runs through November, I think
             2. This is the Salem police we're dealing with-
                those noted (!) crimesolvers]
-------------------------------------------------------
 
 
  [November,1992- Salem, USA]
 
   The social worker has just left the loft of Isabella
   Toscano-Stevens.  Social services was called in shortly
   after the birth of her child (Herman), because of her
   penchant for getting into situations that endanger the
   life of the child.  As the frizzyed Izzy starts picking
   up the forty baseball posters that she had laid out in
   hopes of luring her husband, John, home, she hears a 
   strange sound. She turns, and sees that the baby has upset
   the stand where the poker for the fireplace is.  "Bad baby",
   she cries, and dumps him on top of a pile of baseball gloves
   and bats.  The child starts screaming, but Izzy ignores him;
   suddenly she is struck from behind by a large metal object.
   She slumps to the floor....
 
 
  [24 hours later]
 
   Izzy's brother Bo has come to the loft looking for a file
   that Izzy has taken from their PI business.  Knowing that John
   has regained his past memories and decided that Izzy isn't
   worth being around, Bo assumes that his sister should be
   alone with her baby.  He doesn't bother to knock, and walks
   right in.  Bo picks up the screaming Herman and comforts him,
   then looks for the file on Roman's connection to the Play-Doh
   underground.  Thinking that his ditzy sis has once again left
   her baby alone while she drives around Salem looking for 
   anything that will draw John away from his new love and back
   to her, Bo decides to take the baby back home with him.  He
   never sees her under the Jose Canseco posters....
 
 
  [another 24 hours]
 
   Bo runs into John, who wants him to testify that Izzy is an 
   unfit mother.  In the best interest of Herman, Bo agrees. 
   John leaves with the baby.  Carly, who has just returned from
   her relaxing visit to Bayview, and who now has to go through
   medical school all over again, stops by Izzy's to borrow her
   copy of "101 Ways To Use Your Voice As A Deadly Weapon"--
   required reading for one of Carly's medical courses.  She 
   unlocks the loft (since everyone that Izzy knows has either
   live there, dated someone who has lived there, owned the
   place, or Izzy has given them a key), and notices a rotten
   smell.  Carly assumes that Izzy has tried to cook again.
   Carly looks for the book, but accidently trips over the
   poster of Mickey Mantle.  Carly screams when she realizes that
   Izzy is under the posters that she fell into.  Carly finds
   the phone, and calls the police.
 
  
  [2 hours later]
 
   Commander Abe Carver observes the scene.  Bo is called, and
   comes to see his sister carried off to the morgue.  He tells
   Abe that he didn't see anything unusual the day before, that
   the baby was with his father, and could they hurry this up,
   since Bo wants as far away as possible from the queen of the
   eyebrows.  Brian Scofield searches the sight for the murder
   weapon, but ends up packing up the Ryne Sandberg posters to 
   take home with him.  Abe calls Brian over, and tells him that
   the preliminary report says that Izzy has been dead for two
   days.  Together, they come up with a list of people who would
   have had access to the loft, or Izzy would have let them in.
   Sadly, this list is the entire Salem phonebook.  Bo takes a
   quick glance at the list, sighs, and tells them that it's no
   big loss- Izzy wasn't that nice to be around anyway, so why
   don't they come with him to the fish market for some chowder?
 
 
  WHODUNIT???  The "prime" suspects list, or those with the 
   best motives for offing the pseudoitalian nitwit, has been
   narrowed to:
 
     -- John (Black) Stevens-- he wants her out of his life, but
        he wants the baby...
     -- Carly Manning-- Bayview didn't cure her, and she wants
        revenge for driving them into that snowbank...
     -- Victor Kiriakis-- his love for Loretta wasn't strong
        enough to put up with Izzy's crap...
     -- Roman Brady-- her PI "skills" have almost uncovered his
        addiction to Play-Doh, which could get him thrown off
        the force...
     -- Danielle Stevens-- because it was fun...
     -- Max Brady-- psychokiller in training...
     -- the social worker-- hates these visits, and wants Izzy
        out of her hair, NOW!!!
 
  The Possible Punishments: death sentence
                            life in prison
                            therapy with Marlena Evans
                            civic commendation
