** I've Got My Eye on You
Max finds Suede kickin-em back in the office at Serenity Springs
listening to Luna on the radio having a fine ol time.  When Max
asks him to get to work Suede starts to go.  Max questions Suedes
motives in coming to Llanview.  He thinks that it's creepy that
Suede came so far for a voice on the radio.  When he began asking
questions about Suedes personal life, i.e,. where did he come from
where has he been.... Suede clams up.  Max tells him if Suede won't
answer his questions, he is fired.  Sueded tells him Luna hired him
only Luna can fire him.

Suede finds Luna at Wanda's and tells her what happened.  She tells
him to go back to work and she will take care of Max.  When she
arrives at Serenity Springs she gives Max what for.  She doesn't
appreciate him going over her head.  He tells her he doesn't trust
this guy and is afraid he will take advantage of her.  He tells
her to keep her guard up but she blows him off.  After Luna leaves
Max calls some old buddy named Tom and asks him to do a thorough
security check on his employees backgrounds.  Luna overhears
and is livid.  He tells her he just wants to check the guy out.
She says she can't trust Max anymore. She then calls Suede over
and makes Max apologize to him.  Suede accepts.  Luna leaves and
Max tells Suede that he will be watching him.
*********************************************************************
** Hard Day at the Office
Jason is working at the country club bar and is talking to Lee Ann
on the phone.  He is promising he will get off early and be at the
courthouse later that day.  As he hangs up, his boss comes out
and hassles him for using the bar phone.  Jason tells him he needs
to leave early because he has something really important to do later
that day.  Boss says he will think about it.

Later, Jason spills a drink on a customer.  He apologizes profusely.
Dorian arrives.  She is ribbing him and Jason tells her he is not
supposed to talk to guests.  His boss arrives again and asks Jason
to get a move on and help Ms. Lord.  (Does this Boss have anything
better to do than harrass the bar-man?)  Jason tells Dorian
he has to leave early for the custody trial.  When D asks why he is
acting so paternal, Jason tells her that he and Lee Ann are engaged.
Dorian looks unhappy.  Dorian has three bloody marys in a half hour.
The boss comes along and tells Jason he can't have the time off.
Dorian jumps in and tells the Boss she thinks Jason is VERY talented
and should be allowed to leave.  The boss concurs.  When Jason
asks what the fee is for that favor she tells him none.  In fact,
she writes him a check as a "wedding present".  When Jason declines
she tells him he can cash it later when he realizes what money and
power can do.  Just like what the Buchanan money and power are
going to do in that custody trial.
[Sounds Ominous]
Meanwhile, there are scenes of Lee Ann being nervous waiting for
the time to go to court.  She is worried that Jason won't be able
to make it.  She is determined to keep her baby.  Joey and Alan
come in to see Duke.  This was a nice scene.  Joey is the proud
uncle and asks LeeAnn if she is worried about the custody suit.
She tells him she will never keep Duke from the Buchanan half
of his family.  She will have her lawyer work something out.
Joey asks if they can still be friends?  Lee Ann says of course.
Later she is talking (I don't remember who to) and is saying
how wonderful Jason is and how she doesn't know what she would
do if she ever lost him.  [Soap Opera Law #3,400,523..... Bad stuff
is coming LeeAnn and Jason's Way SOON.]
********************************************************************
** Trouble in Buchananville
Vickie and Clint are just in from a tennis game at the country club.
[Since when do these two play tennis?]  They argue about Joey. He
tells her what he told Joey, to stay away from that Douglas boy.
Vickie can't believe it.  Clint tries to tell her it is because of
all the controversy.  That it is a powderkeg situation and he doesnt
want to see Joey get caught in the crossfire.  Vickie asks Clint
if that meant that Clint would accept the friendship under calmer
circumstances?  Clint says he doesn't know. V asks him if he wants to
go to the Scout Club Jamboree that afternoon.  C is on his way to the
Banner and asks if she is coming.  She says Later.

She runs into (guess who) SLOAN! (surprise).  They decide to he can
escort her to the SCJ. While there, Sloan tells Vickie that it was
hard with Wm.  That Wm had what it takes to be a "Real Man" i.e., was
athletic, could run, hit, field, but wouldn't do it.  Sloan would
toss pitches at him for hours and Wm would just step away from the
ball.  He wasn't sure who Wm was really afraid of, the ball or Sloan.
Vickie remarks that this is the first time he has opened up about
William.  Sloan tells her its easy with her.  (Awwww) They spy
Cassie and Andrew being all lovey dovey and Sloan admits that
he is hoping beyond hopes for a grandchild.  Vickie asks if Larry
gave him good news, thus his futuristic outlook.  He doesn't
answer, instead he volunteers to spin the lottery wheel and pick
the lucky ticket. Guess whos?  Vickies!!! (Sheeah Right) She wins
a first class ticket to Nowhere.  She is all bubbley and Sloan
kisses her hand and says she deserves to be happy.  They are still
holding hands and looking at each other smiling while Clint, who
has arrived just in time for the little hand kiss, stands watching.
When he approaches, Vickie is startled, but glad to see him.  Sloan
tells them how delightful a day they have had an leaves.  Clint
apologizes to Vickie for being such an arss and begs for forgiveness
She accepts of course.  They kiss.

** I've Got My Telephoto Eye on You
Andrew and Cassie are all in love,(for today), and are at the SJC.
He is worried about Billy (see next storyline) and all the other
Billys like him out there.  Alone and afraid and needing his help.
Cassie tries to reassure him.  They kiss and hug.  Everytime they
kiss, or hug, some schlepp with a camera is taking shots of them.
All day.
*******************************************************************
**  Marty Meets the Wizard....... Marty gets a Heart
After Andrew calls Cassie and arranges to meet at the SCJ, Billy
shows up.  Andrew is so relieved.  Billy can't face his parents.
He never wants to see them again.  Andrew tells him to give them
some time to digest the news.  Billy feels hopeless.  Andrew offers
to talk to B's parents for him.  Billy isn't sure that it is worth
the try.  Mrs. Douglass calls and Andrew tells her Billy is safe.
Billy waves his arms signing not to let on that he is there.
Andrew covers for him and tells her if he hears from Billy, he
will let her know.  When he hangs up the phone, Billy is gone.
Later, Andrew meets with Mrs. Douglas.  She tells him he had
no right to keep the information from her about B being gay.
Andrew explains that it wasn't his place.  She is terribly worried
about Billy.  She feels bad about her husbands actions.  She didn't
stand up for Billy.  She is afraid of what all this is doing to her
marriage, she's afraid of the town  and the pain Billy will have
to endure.

Andrew tells her the worse pain he can go through is the pain
caused by rejection from his own family.  He tells her about
William and Sloan. He warns her not to do as his father did.

Meanwhile, Joey and Alana ask Marty if she has any idea where
Billy might have gone.  She acts like her usual smarmy self.
When they leave she jumps up and hi-tails it to some theater.
(I think the one Cain and Tina like to frequent.)  He is
downstairs with a bottle of vodka (?).  Marty finds him there.
Apparently he told her about the place once.  Marty tries
to get the bottle from Billy.  She tells him she doesn't
want to be blamed again when he goes into another coma.

She tells him she knows why he is there.  He told that he was
gay and didn't get a standing ovation.  She tells him he should
not be sorry for anything. He shouldn't have to apologize for
anything.  Just be himself.

When he asks her why she is being nice, she tells him it is
because when he was in a coma, she saw where she was headed and
didn't want to go.  She offers to bring him food or anything
else he might need.  (It was not clear to me whether or not
she was able to get the bottle away from him or not. I assume
yes.)  He asks her to bring Joey and Alana and she says she
will think about it.  He then asks her to come clean about
Andrew.  She vehemently refuses.  She tells Billy he is a nice
kid and never did anything to her, but Andrew was another story.

She leaves promising she wont tell anyone she has seen him.
