Vicki is talking to Grant, she's out of control and can't get her
life back into order.  Grant could help her, he gives her advice
on dating too.  He offers to drive her home and she asks why.  He
says he cares about her and she is worth the effort.

At Vicki's house, Bridget is questioning why Grant has brought
her home.  Vicki explains that she flipped out after her date and
he thought it best if she didn't drive.  Grant is happy that
Steven is playing with a toy he gave him, and Bridget tells Grant
he must be doing something right if Steven is so comfortable with
him.  Grant starts to leave and Vicki asks if he'll give Bridget
a ride to Donna's and he agrees.  Bridget is all excited that
she'll get to ride in the limo.  Grant tells Steven to take care
of his Mom.

Ryan goes to Sassy's and Kelsey comes over and invites Jamie too.
Jamie and Kelsey are hiding from people at the hospital.  Spencer
walks and they all cring.  Jamie and Kelsey ask Ryan to keep
Spencer away from them.  Jamie and Kelsey talk about what Spencer
is up to.  Spencer and Ryan talk, Spencer thinks he knows what's
best for everyone.  Felicia comes up and says she and Sally have
been talking and they have a few theories about Lucas' death and
they all point to Kevin who is dating her daughter.  She wants
Ryan or someone to do something, and she passes out.  Jamie sees
to her and asks what is wrong.  Ryan will take her home, Jamie
and Kelsey go off into their own corner of the bar again.  Kelsey
doesn't want to deal with Spencer but Jamie insists.  Jamie tells
Spencer that if their relationship is comming between her and her
family then he wants to work it out now.  Spencer says he saw
Jamie take the file back from Iris before announcing the winner
of the job.  Spencer accuses him of picking Kelsey then changing
to a safer choice.  Kelsey is very upset that Spencer is saying
these things.  Spencer wants Jamie to prove that he didn't change
the results, but Jamie gets all defensive.  Spencer (who acts
like a Cory) gets all self-rightous, saying he is doing what is
best for Kelsey.  Kelsey hates that Spencer and Jamie are both
trying to run her life.  Later, Jamie and Kelsey talk about the
conversation with Spencer.  He understands why she didn't want to
talk to Spencer and all but the pressure at the hospital and the
article is getting to them both.

Felicia invites Ryan in her house and she explains what happened
at Sassy's.  Ryan says people are always offering him advice
about Vicki too.  Ryan sticks around while she orders food from
Tops.  She tells him about smashing photo's, etc and he says that
is normal but she doesn't want to be.  She thanks him for not
tip-toeing around her.  Ryan explains that his family NEVER told
what they were feeling and now he's trying very hard to get over
that.  Felicia explains that happened with Sally at Sassy's.  She
asks if Ryan thinks Kevin did it and if Lorna is safe with him.
Ryan says the girls can take care of themselves but promises to
keep tabs on them.  Felicia wishes her girls could find someone
like him, uncomplicated; Ryan says he's the most complicated
person in town.  Felicia also asks him not to tell the girls what
happened at Sassy's.

Marley and Dennis arrive at St. Victoire.  They are huggy-kissy
as they enjoy the scenery.  Marley is glad she came.  He has
gotten 2 rooms like before.  He had left her to see about that,
then kisses her on the bed and un-buttons her top part way, then
leaves again.  Marley is laying in the bed with just a slip on
and she remembers things from her and Dennis' past.  She hears
something and goes to see.  She starts to put her shirt on but
takes it off again.  Outside Dennis is there without a shirt,
they kiss.  They hear music for their "welcoming" party.  They
have to go but Marley wants to wait to see the locals later [can
we say horney, boys and girls??].  They dress for the party and
go to the site.  Dennis and Marley consider taking a swim but the
villagers arrive for the party.  Everyone dances, Marley wants to
leave the party, she wants to be alone with him.  He makes her
say "I want you to make love to me".

John and Lilly are sitting around talking about her day and her
family while he cooks.  Donna comes in and wants to talk about
Vicki.  Donna asks about her engagement and John gives her a
gift.  John gives her a vase that belonged to him and Sharlene,
she doesn't want to accept it but John insists.  Lily makes a
quick exit to "check on Gregory".  Donna and John wonder why she
acts so funny when talking about her upcomming wedding.  John
can't get her to come down again.  Donna wonders how much that
vase would get her at the pawn shop.  John and Donna talk about
life, the twins, Micheal, their friendship.  Lily comes down and
says that most are not as fortunate as them to have love in their
relationship, some have to settle for what is right.  She asks to
eat with them.  After, Lily is cleaning up and John asks about
what she said, and is she being forced to marry this man.  Lily
explains that she is not forced but it is her duty to marry the
man who took care of her family.  She would rather stay in the
states.  She goes back up and Donna tells John "this is not what
she wants".

Vicki is "dancing" Steven around the room, lit by candles.  Vicki
remembers when she and Ryan danced to that song.  She puts Steven
down thinking he was asleep and she goes to the door to look out.
Steven gets up and picks up the match book.  [freeze frame]
