Well, it's nice to be back at work (yeah, right!) and back into the
swing of updating....here's what happened, as it happened:

Leo is out of jail, thanks to Jeremy. He tells Jeremy he is terribly
sorry about what happened to his wife. Jeremy tells Leo he does not
hold him responsible, Leo saved his life, so it's even. So, Leo,
Jeremy asks, how does it feel to be a free man?

Cooper goes to see Isabelle. She wants to know if he has seen Ally.
Yes, Cooper says, she had made one decision, then she changed her
mind. Cooper tells Isabelle that Ally is going to have the baby. There
it is then, Isabelle says. Cooper says he wants to help Ally. She
shouldn't have to go through this alone. Isabelle says that she
realizes they are too young to get married, but circumstances have
changed that. No, Cooper says, they are not going to be married.
Isabelle says he is, like it or not, going to be the father of the
baby.

Ally tells Ava that she went to get an abortion, but she couldn't do
it. She can't give it up, she wants to be a mother to this baby. Ava
wonders if Ally can do it. Ally says she knows it means a sacrifice,
but she wants to do this. Ava says not to worry, you have a lot of
people who love you and will support you, starting right here. Ally
hugged Ava.

Leo tells Jeremy that freedom feels wonderful. Leo tells them that
Butler was in his hands, he wished he could have stopped him from
killing Ceara. Jeremy tells him to stop blaming himself. The
international agent tells them that the extridition papers came, so he
is taking Mr. Butler back, he pleaded guilty to both cases. Leo
excuses himself to go see Ava, hopefully, she'll want to see him.

Cooper tells Isabelle that he is not going to marry Ally. Isabelle
wants to know why Ally changed her mind. Cooper says it doesn't matter
right now. Cooper wants Isabelle to support Ally in this time of her
life. Isabelle says she knows EXACTLY what Ally is going through.
Cooper wonders what she is talking about.  Isabelle says she once had
a hard decision to make, too.

Ally is telling Ava she is unsure of everything. She'll have to drop
out of school. Ava tells Ally that she has help. She has Cooper, he
was there from the beginning, he'll be there for her. No, Ally says,
she'll get a job. Ava tells her it is damn hard work to raise a baby.
Do not fool yourself into thinking you can do this on your own. Accept
help from Cooper, accept it from us! Ava tells her. Ally agrees, and
then asks about Leo. Ava says it's hard. He's in jail. She went to see
him New Year's and Christmas. Ally tells her that they belong
together, she wished it was like that for her and Casey. Ava says
cheer up, she belives in happy endings. Just wait, Ava says, soon it
will be Ally, and Casey and baby makes three. The door bell rings, it's
Leo. Ava is very happy to see him.

Armand tells Gwyn that what happened with Stacey is amazing. They
think Clay is up to something. Armand tells them that it will be
difficult to get her out, since it was a doctor's recommendation and
Stacey did not fight it. But, he offers to check Clay out. He wants to
take a shower, but Gwyn wants him to stay here on the couch and make
out. The door bell rings. It's Jeremy. Gwyn tells Jeremy that she did
not attend Ceara's funeral because of the family crisis. Jeremy says
that's why he's here, and she can help him, since she knows the guy
behind this better than anyone. Clay? Gwyn asks.

Ava is surprised to see Leo, but she wonders if he excaped. No, he's
on the up and up, Leo says. Sturgeon (the lobby guy) buzzes and
wonders what Ava's favorite color was. Seems they're thinking of
repainting the lobby and wanted to get a survey of the tenant's
favorite colors. Ava asks Leo. He says blue. She tells Sturgeon blue.
Sturgeon thanks her and welcomes Leo back. Ally leaves. Ava wonders
what's up. He got a 100 hours of community service and $10,000 fine.
She thinks it's a bargain. He says after taking a beating on the
silver, $10,000 is a lot of money, he has to liquadate some assets. As
long as he doesn't liquadate her, Ava says. They kiss a lot. She loves
him. He says like as in move back in? Yes, she says. Good, he can't
wait, once they get back. Back? From where? Ava wonders. He wants to
take her on a vacation. He tells her to go pack, light. She won't need
much where they are going. She leaves to pack, thrilled that they're
going someplace warm. Leo talks to himself, saying that he still
remembers what Clay did to him, and he will get even.

Gwyn tells Jeremy she does think Clay is up to something. But, she
doesn't know what. Gwyn says she doesn't care what Clay says about how
close he and Stacey got, there is something strange about that
marriage. Gwyn figures out that Stacey has something, and he married
Stacey to get it. Armand wonders if Clay would do that. Jeremy says
Dinah Lee thought the same thing.

Isabelle says sometimes there are other reasons besides love to get
married; sometimes it is better to make decisions based on the head,
and not the heart. She tells him that what she is about to tell him he
should never repeat to anyone. She tells Cooper that life is about
choices.  When she was young, she decided to marry Cabot because he
could support their children in ease and in the Alden way. But, Cooper
says, she didn't love him?  Back in those days, Isabelle says, it was
common to marry for status, and with time, it is possible to love
someone. She fullfilled all her duties as a wife and mother, and most
importantly, as an Alden. She knows he will uphold the Alden honor. He
is going to be a father to this baby, in every sense of the word, and
in time, you will love the mother, Isabelle says. It is the honerable
thing to do, and as an Alden, the ONLY thing to do.
