Hello soap fans...Well, I went to the "Sexiest Men in Daytime" concert
in southern California last weekend, with a STARRING guest appearance
by James dePaiva, aka Max Holden.  BUT...no stage appearance!!!  It was
all GH men (see GH listing for report on the concert in general).  BUT,
I swear Max was there...from where we were seated, you could look back
up into a glassed-in room, and I would bet my bottom dollar it was Max
sitting in there...especially since I could also recognize the GH guys
when they were in there (the lighting was very dark in the room, but
you could still make them out).  Then at the very end of the show, when
they brought all the GH men out again on stage, it sure as heck looked
like Max had come halfway down the stairs to the right of the stage, like
he was waiting for an introduction, but none ever came!!!  It might be
worth a phone call to the theater to see what happened to him...or if
my strong desire to see him caused these hallucinations!!!  But I don't
think so....

But on to Tuesday's show:

Cassie/Blair/Dorian:  Cassie is going to work for Blair, who thinks Cassie
can help keep an eye on Cain and prevent him from screwing up her business.
At Wanda's, Cassie and Blair are talking when Cain enters.  He tells Cassie
about the impending "second virgin birth" (great line!!) for Blair.  Cassie
surprised.  Andrew then enters (I guess things are all nice-nice between
these two again...just no formal engagement yet).  He wants help with a
fundraiser.  Blair tells C & A that she wants to become friends again with
Dorian--she is sorry for the estrangement.  Dorian enters, and is short
and snotty with everyone..then leaves.  Andrew says he will get Dorian to
work on the fundraiser, which will put Blair and Dorian together.  Later,
Andrew baits Dorian by telling her that if she doesn't help with the fund-
raiser, he will just have to ask the other effective name in town, Vicki.
Dorian of course bites, and says she will be HAPPY to work on the event,
and will whip things into shape pronto.  Later at Wanda's, Dorian arrives
for an "emergency" meeting of the fundraising committee, and finds Blair
sitting there.  She starts to leave, but Blair tells her she would like to
mend the fences, and asks for Dorian's forgiveness.  Dorian says no way.
Blair says, "even if I can give you something you really want??"  Dorian
again bites; Blair says she will arrange to let Dorian visit with Addie
at the Buchanan mansion.  She tells Dorian she can work on Asa--it can
be done.  Dorian says OK.

Tina/Bo:  Bo arrives at Clint and Vicki's and tells Tina about the trouble
with Suede, and the fact he is an escaped convict, having been charged with
the murder of his wife.  Tina tells Bo about the phone call from Luna.  The
two then high-tail it to the police station and discuss the matter with
Maggie, who has now been made a detective [and by the way is now wearing
"civilian" clothes and looks much prettier and softer than in that blue
suit...even her attitude seemed softer].  Without saying that she has heard
from Luna (via phone message), Tina tells Maggie that she heard "from a
good source" that the cop Vern should not be trusted; he didn't even check
in with the Llanview police when coming to look for Suede.  Maggie checks
on it, and finds that Vern did check in.  Tina is panicky that Luna is in
great danger...

Luna/Suede:  Meanwhile, Suede has brought Luna to Raven Pointe, closed since
October, 1982, covered with cobwebs and filled with mice, but everything
still in place as it was ten years ago.  Suede looks down at the floor and
freaks at seeing a big blood stain; he then has a vision of "Debra" (look-
alike Luna) on the floor and covered with blood.  He freaks, yells her name.
Luna asks who is Debra?  Luna is mad as hell at Suede...says she had trusted
him on this wild goose chase...now she wants some answers.  Suede says this
was the home of Debra Whitehart...his wife.  She was stabbed here, and he
was arrested later that night (October, 1982).  He says he is back here
because the time is right, and Luna can help him...Luna asks him if he
is the killer---he doesn't answer.  Suede puts down his gun, and Luna
reaches for it, but Suede beats her to it.  Says he can't trust her now.
He says he has to do some things, and leaves Luna alone at Raven Pointe.
[OK, slueths...did he or didn't he kill Debra??? My guess is he didn't,
but good ole boy Vern is involved somehow...any other ideas?]

Dr. Ruth Arrives!!!
At Alex's, Carlo's mummy is watching a talk show on TV with Dr. Ruth as
a guest.  She says she needs to protect Morty from hearing such graphic
talk.  A lightbulb goes off in Alex's head when she hears Dr. Ruth talk
about sexual confidence and a strong self-image...Later, enter Dr. Ruth,
the savior to inject Morty with some "Carlo-style" sexuality to complete
his make-over!  Mommy, of course, is aghast at this thought, but Dr. Ruth
tells her to take a hike, as well as Alex [who she tells doesn't need any
help...she is obviously "sexually noisy"...]  Mummy keeps talking how
Morty's body "is a temple"...Dr. Ruth answers with, "if you want a temple
go to Beth Shalom"!!! (Great line again!)  Alone with Morty, Dr. Ruth
tries word association games to see where Morty is coming from...out in
left field, obviously.  Dr. R:  "Woman"; M: "Respect"; Dr. R.: "Organ",
M: "Bach" (it seems Bach wrote beautiful organ music).  This went on for
a while...and very funny.  Dr. Ruth then calls her office and asks that
all appointments be cancelled for the next two days...she has before her
the challenge of a lifetime!!!  Great humor in these scenes, as usual.
I wonder if it is the same writers for the rest of the show, or they
bring in special ones for this comedy stuff...it has been fun!!

That was all for today...

See ya later,

Karen
