Hi Folks,

Yes it's that time again. Time to find out the happenings in that little
town called Yuckdale. So without further ado, let's get on with the "really
big shoe"...


T & A
-----
Rosehand asks GetEven if he's avoiding her. "Why would I do that?" he asks
evasively. She wants to know what's wrong, but he tells her he just has a
lot on his mind. She tells him that CabotCove is happy GetEven convinced her
to attend the wedding. He thinks GetEven is a good influence on her.
"Great!", says GetEven. She thanks him for being so honest with her about
his feelings for her, and tells him she wants to be honest with him too.
Just then, CabotCove comes in and interrupts the moment. As CabotCove and
Rosehand hug, GetEven remembers HoidyToidy telling him that CabotCove is his
father, and Rosehand is his half-sister. GetEven has a crazed look on his
face.


RollsRoyce's Office
-------------------
Easily is pumping Rolls' assistant, Todd, for information on where Rolls is.
She whines because she was supposed to meet him here at 2:45 sharp, and he's
nowhere to be seen. "Where is heeeeeeeeeee?", Easily whines. The phone
rings, and Todd answers. After he hangs up, he tells Easily that it was a
woman calling for Rolls, but when he asked if she wanted to leave a message,
she hung up. This isn't the first time this has happened. The same woman has
called before. Easily looks worried.


Girlwide
--------
Neal remembers Rolls telling her he'd be in his office at 2:45, so she
should call then. He told her they have to get the situation thrashed out
soon. Neal looks worried.


Mystery Apartment
-----------------
Rolls is sitting on the couch when a woman walks in...

Rolls: "So you're finally home"
Woman: "Royce...I can't believe it. I've been thinking about you all day"
Rolls: "OH GOD, Cynthia...I've missed you so much...I can't tell you how
        much".

And they kiss passionately. Obviously, Cynthia is NOT his sister. But she is
also not the woman that showed up at his house that one day before
Christmas, unless they have recast the part.


Girlwide (The part of Scooter is being played today by Christopher Cass)
--------
Neal calls Rolls office again, and doesn't leave a message...again. Todd
seems annoyed. Scooter comes in complaining that Juicy pounces on everything
he says and does. Neal gets a call from Thelma saying that Juicy is simply
thrilled with her work. Scooter is miffed that Juicy is taking her
frustrations out on him only. He asks, jokingly, if she has something on
Juicy. They make plans to go dancing at the cellar that night.


T & A
-----
While CabotCove is on the phone, Rosehand tells GetEven that she's been
thinking about what he said that morning, and she had a talk with
Duh...Hutch telling him that they should see other people. She says she's
not yet ready for a committed relationship. GetEven tells her he didn't mean
to come between her and Duh...Hutch. CabotCove gets off the phone and asks
GetEven and Rosehand to join him and Edweenie for dinner. GetEven bows out
saying that he has to work late. Edweenie walks in and GetEven turns away.
CabotCove goes off on how wonderful GetEven is and asks Edweenie to try to
change GetEven's mind about dinner. Edweenie asks to talk to GetEven alone.
Once they're alone, GetEven says "I don't want to talk". "Oh darling, I was
so worried about you", Edweenie says in her whiniest, most annoying voice.
He shouts that she has turned his life upside down. Easily shows up.
Edweenie leaves. Easily bitches about the fact that Rolls stood her up.
GetEven tells her his day hasn't been perfect either.


Cynthia's Pad
-------------
Rolls, sans shirt, is talking on the phone with his assistant, Todd. He asks
him to call Easily and make his apologies. (In other words, he needs time to
think up a suitable excuse for standing her up). Todd tells Rolls about the
phone calls from the woman and her subsequent hangups. He tells Todd he
knows who it was and not to worry about it. They hang up. Cynthia comes back
into the room in a negligee, and they go at it.


Chez Memorial
-------------
Cargo and TomCat ask Doc Samuels if Cargo's test results are back yet. She
tells them not yet but they should be back later today or early tomorrow.
They are anxious for the results.


Mustang Ranch
-------------
L'ilDebbie is all agog over the prospect of taking everyone out to dinner at
Journey's End for her father's last night in town. Duh...Hutch says "Golly
gee Miz Debbie, I don't think it would be fittin for me to go with you".
"Ohhhhhhh...Duh Hutch you haaaaaaaaaaave to", she whines. Enema and Neditor
come in with fixins for a big supper Enema is going to make. LilDebbie tells
them she wants to take them all out for dinner. She's already made the
reservations. Enema tells her that's sweet, but she shouldn't spend all her
money that way. "I waaaaaaaaaaaaant to", she whines. (Maybe we should rename
her Whiney). But its all for nought, for St. Enema will prepare the evening
repast. Seth comes in. Then a car pulls up. Seth is all a-tingle to find out
that it's Angel. She's looking for Hold'dumb. Angel tells Seth that Chilly
called but doesn't feel she should say what Chilly told her until she has a
chance to converse with the dumb one. Hold'dumb walks in and asks Angel if
Chilly has called again. Angel says no. "Oh, so you still haven't given her
my message yet", he says rather rudely. Enema asks what's going on. "You
haven't told them?", he shouts at Angel. (Now this boy needs to be
pimp-slapped). Hold'dumb tells the gang that Chilly called Angel and told
her that she wanted Hold'dumb to start divorce proceedings.


Girlwide
--------
Scooter takes a call for Neal. He asks if he can take a message. "No...No
message", says Rolls on the other end. He hangs up and continues to kiss
Cynthia. Meanwhile (at Girlwide) Neal comes back. Scooter tells her about
the phone call and says the guy sounded familiar. They make plans to meet at
her place at 6:00. Scooter leaves and Neal says to herself, "God Rolls, I
don't know how much longer we can keep up this charade.


T & A
-----
Easily and GetEven work late and both are preoccupied with their respective
problems, so they snap at each other. Easily suggests they quit for tonight
and go out to dinner. GetEven says he won't be very good company. Easily
tries to cheer him up and give him advice. (Oh YEAH! I'd really want to
listen to advice on romance from Easily!!!) She tells him that things will
get better with Rosehand once Edweenie and CabotCove are married and in
Grosse Point. Then he can persue his interest in Rosehand without
interference from Edweenie. He tells her it's a little more complicated than
that. CabotCove and Edweenie come in. CabotCove asks GetEven again if he'll
join them for dinner. GetEven says no...again. Edweenie asks to speak to
SonnyBoy alone again. When they're alone, GetEven says "I'm still not ready
to talk about it mother". She doesn't want to leave him alone when he's so
upset. He tells her to go and he'll stay and try to figure out a way to
avoid going to her wedding. He doesn't think he'll be able to face Rosehand
at the wedding and not tell her the truth.


TomCat and Cargo's
------------------
Dawn and Jerry come by for dinner. TomCat and Cargo ask them to housesit
while they are in the Cape. They agree. TomCat goes to pick up the boys at
Lilabird's. Dawn and Cargo tell Jerry that Dawn is HIV+. Jerry gets upset
and yells "You're going to die and so am I because there is no cure". He
runs out of the house. Cargo follows him.

After the commercial break, TomCat has returned but Cargo and Jerry are
still not back. TomCat tries to comfort Dawn. Cargo returns and says she
found Jerry but he refused to come back with her, so she drove him home and
a neighbor is staying with him at Dawn's apartment. TomCat goes to talk to
him man to man.


Chez Hospital
-------------
McDLT is on the phone with Snooz telling her how much he misses her (she's
still in Chicago). Easily shows up and asks McDLT to dinner. She fills him
in on the situation with Rolls. She does a poor imitation of crying as she
tells McDLT she thinks Rolls is seeing another woman because of the phone
calls he keeps getting.


Cynthia's pad
-------------
Rolls and Cynthia eat chocolate, grunt at each other, and make WHOOPEE!!


Mustang Ranch
-------------
Enema, Seth, Angel, and Hold'dumb are talking. Hold'dumb is upset about
Chilly asking for a divorce even though it was his idea to begin with. He
tells them that after Angel told him, he drove around for a while and then
called MyFavoriteMarsha. Angel tells them that Chilly sounded quiet and
resolved. She had thought about it a lot and felt that she was doing the
right thing by giving Hold'dumb his freedom. "So she's doing it for me
because I brought it up?", Hold'dumb says hysterically. Seth asks Hold'dumb,
if Chilly were here would he want a divorce? "I don't know", he yells. He
says that they should talk about it first, that he doesn't remember being in
love with her, but he's been thinking a lot about her lately and wants the
chance to get to know her again. Duh...Hutch and L'ilDebbie show up. Neditor
tells L'ilDebbie that he just talked to VALium, and she said she hasn't
heard from L'ilDebbie in a while. Rosehand arrives. Enema asks her about her
plans for dinner. She says she has to talk to GetEven first. Duh...Hutch
gets that look on his face again.


T & A
-----
GetEven broods and remembers CabotCove asking him to be an usher at the
wedding. (Which reminds me...Who is going to be in Edweenie's bridal party.
Somehow, I just can't picture her as the blushing bride). Rosehand calls and
wants to know what's up with dinner. GetEven tells her he's swamped with
work and can't make it but she should go ahead. Edweenie shows up. GetEven
and Rosehand hang up. "What are you doing here AGAIN, mother?" She wants to
ask him to dinner...AGAIN. "After what you dropped on me today? NO!", he
says. She says that calling Rosehand isn't helping the situation. He points
out that Rosehand called him and she senses something is wrong. "What should
I tell her mother...Huh...HUH?" She suggests cancelling dinner with CCove
so the two of them can talk. "What good is that gonna do?", he shouts.
"Rosehand is still gonna be my half sister and nothing can change
that...RIGHT MOTHER???"


Neal's Pad
----------
Scooter shows up with a bottle of wine. He enthuses about her great
apartment. He notices a clock and admires it. She says that was her father's
prized possession. She kept it after he died. "A first", Scooter says, "Neal
Alcott talks about her past. I better write this down". Neal tells Scooter
that her father was uneducated but a very good man who worked hard. "He
tried as hard as he could to be a good father to r...The factory he worked
at for 25 years gave him that clock and then let him go a few months later".
She tells him he never got over that, started to drink and died a few years
later. She says she was on the Amolphe Coast when her father died. She also
mentions that her mother had died a few years before that.


Tom and Jerry
-------------
Tom fills Jerry in about the facts of HIV and AIDS. You can't get it by
casual contact, not by drinking from the same glass, hugging or kissing. Tom
points out that Dawn needs a lot of hugging and kissing right now from
Jerry. He makes Jerry understand that Dawn would never do anything to harm
him and the reason she didn't tell him earlier was that she didn't want him
to worry. He tells Jerry that his mom needs his love and support. Jerry
tells Tom that he's not worried about himself, he's worried about his mom.
He doesn't want her to die. Then he cries in Tom's arms.


The Cellar
----------
Easily and McDLT sit down after dancing and Easily continues to whine about
Rolls seeing someone else. McDLT tells Easily to put the brakes on this
relationship until Rolls tells her whatever it is he's hiding from her. But
that's like telling Niagara Falls not to fall. He also tells her not to draw
any conclusions until she hears the facts.

GetEven  shows up. McDLT asks him to join them, but GetEven says he wouldn't
be very good company and goes up to the bar.

Scooter and Neal show up and hit the dance floor.

Rosehand shows up with Sneera and Cliff. She spies GetEven and wonders why
he's there and not working late like he said.


Mustang Ranch
-------------
Seth tells Hold'dumb that he should get a hold of Jesster. Chilly's lawyer
will need to get in touch with someone and maybe this way Hold'dumb will get
some idea what she's thinking. Hold'dumb says that he doesn't even know what
he's thinking. "Wait a minute...you don't even have a brain. How can you
think at all???", Seth wants to know. Angel notices a car pulling up...It's
a woman...I'ts MyFavoriteMarsha. Hold'dumb rushes out to greet her and they
hug.


Cynthia's Pad
-------------
Cynthia eats chocolates as she remembers Rolls leaving. His last words "Some
day we'll be together the way we want to be". Cynthia picks up a framed
picture of Rolls that was taken a long time ago. It's signed "To Cynthia on
the day we finally graduated from high school. You'll always be the only
girl for me".


The Cellar
----------
Easily continues to whine about Rolls. She stops long enough to hit the
dance floor with McDLT. Scooter and Neal continue to dance. GetEven tells
Rosehand that when he finally finished up at the office, he decided to come
to the cellar to unwind. Rosehand wishes he would tell her what's bothering
him. She thinks he's having second thoughts about what he said to her that
morning about falling in love with her. She says she won't be angry. Just
tell her the truth. L'ilDebbie and Duh...Hutch shows up and Duh...Hutch is
very annoyed to see Rosehand with GetEven. Rolls shows up and sees Easily
dancing with McDLT and Neal dancing with Scooter.


TomCat and Cargo's
------------------
Tom and Jerry return. Jerry apologizes to his mother, tells her he loves
her, and they embrace. Doc Samuels calls with the test results.
They are...........TUNE IN TOMORROW.



That's all folks,
Irish
