I will see if I can fill in the blanks so to speak...(I hope you don't

Back when Erica was in "snare-Jackson" mode she was arrested by a cop
and she hit him -- he was the same cop that handcuffed Charlie.  She
starts complaining and tries to push him away from Charlie and he says
something lik "Oh not you again...don't touch me cause this time I
will arrest you and MAKE the charges stick!"  It was humorous!!

>Brooke is just
>trying to get the Pig to realize that Edmund needs medical attention!

Charlie seems to need medical attention too. <and maybe phychological
help too for getting in the middle of those two!!>

>The
>phone company gets really busy connecting all of the women to their attornies.

Erica not only calls her lawyer for Charlie but she also disguises
(poorly I might add) her voice and calls Wildwind.  She tells Helga
that Dimitri's been arrested.  Helga asks "Who is this?" and of couse
Erica hangs up the phone.

At the police station, statements are being taken.  Brooke tries to
tell the cop taking Edmund's statement that Dimitri walked up to their
table and hit Edmund unprovoked while they were at the Valley Inn for
dinner.  But the cop tells her that he can only include what Edmund
says happened and Edmund says something like "It doesn't matter --
there was a fight that's it."  Helga shows up and Dimitri asks how she
knew and she tells him that a woman called -- they both look over at
Erica.  Helga tells him that his lawyer is on the way.

>The suits show up & the boys get hauled off to the slammer.
>Together!

This was so stupid -- all three were thrown in a cell together.  And
it isn't as if there weren't other empty cells cause you could see
them!!  

>Burnaker's wondering why the cop pulled such a dumb stunt, arresting
>the prominent citizens, but doesn't get anywhere. 

Burnaker thinks that they shoulnt have been hauled in but then the
owner of the Valley shows up and says that he is definately pressing
charges.

>Charlie just wants the 2 big
>boys to play nice, until he's out of the way...

Of course Dimitri and Edmund are glaring at each other and Charlie
calls them two big jerks.  And Jack shows up and agrees with him. (Jack
got beeped, as did Galen while at the hospital, to come to the police
Station.)

>Meanwhile upstairs, Erica lands

>Erica does a "poor me" routine, & sidesteps the accusations, & comes back with

Erica and Brooke go at with each other and then Jack shows up -- Erica
bows away (only a few feet) until she hears Jack tell Brooke that he
should have realized that this was gonna happen since he told Dimitri
about the DNA test on the dead Hugo Merrick.  Erica steps back into
the conversation at this moment and accuses Jack of being a
graverobber etc.  Helga thanks Eric afor calling which of course Erica
denies.

>Meanwhile

This was sooooo Erica -- it was funny.  And of course Mr. Goodwin fell
for it "hook, line, and sinker" and drops the charges.

>Back at the cell, Charlie mentions that it was a good thing that the coppers
>*did* come, because D'mitri had really meant to kill Edmund.
>(at this point my long lost kid called & then...)

Jack hears this as Galen comes in and tells the trio that the owner of
Valley Inn dropped the charges and they are free to go.  Jack says
"what a second I think there is another charge....man slaughter with
attempt to kill. We have a witness."  Edmund tells Jack to drop it and
Dimitri says that he will let his lawyers handle it from now on that
he learned his lesson.

>Well it's all settled.  Galen
>mentions that if D'mitri does this again...then charges will be pressed.

Dimitri sees the Valley Inn owner and offers (again) to pay for the
damages and Mr. Goodwin tells him that it is already taken care of bny
the lady.  Dimitri asks "brooke?" and Mr. Goodwin says "No the only
lady that could make me change my mind -- Erica Kane."

>Parting shots of the PVPD, Erica's leaving with Charlie, & D'mitri rushes
>out to profusely thank her.  Charlie's hurling insults that go right over
>Dim's head.  Erica says "Who Could Blame You" & sympathizes with his grief
>over the descration of his beloved Father.

This was soooo sickning.  Erica IMHO deserves better than Dimitri....I
NEVER thought I would say this but even Charlie (either one) is better
for her than Dimitri!!

>Brooke & Edmund are chatting
>& Brooke is telling Ed how proud she is, that he didn't press charges.
>"What's revenge without no purpose? Brother D'mitri will pay Dearly!"

This was a hint into how Edmund is "changing" in front of Brooke's
eyes.  He is acting more and more like Dimitri.
