Episode 117: Some Leave. Some Stay.

 

 

 Five and half days laters, Harry, Bethany, Rebecca, Chris and Emma fly down to Mexico, where agents claim they have found a body to be that of Jeff Wilson. Jeff was supposed to have been executed by lethal injection, several weeks earlier, but it seems there was cover up and Jeff survived, until he was, what looks like, brutally murdered by an unknown assailant, alongside lover Isabella Tarn on an isolated island in the Caribbean. Once the Wilsons step off the plane, the family are told, Jeff was staying on an island, which was used by Jamaican fishermen, who kept their status secret. That was until, they were attacked by pirates and only a few escaped and signalled an emergency, once they discovered Jeff and Isabella's dead bodies. The feds suspect runaway Jeff, was the victim of pirates, as the Tarns household in Mexico, was the scene of a pirate massacre. Harry cannot believe his brother could have survived a lethal injection and officially died again. The agents inform Harry, that one of the fishermen, was to have taken a disk to the States with confidential information on it, but misplaced it. The Wilsons are taken to a mortuary, where Jeff's body is identified. Bethany, Rebecca and Emma are sickened by what they see. Chris is devastated and Emma comforts him. Harry realizes what the agents said, were true. He looks down at his brothers dead body, frozen still, almost catatonic. Has it all sunk in?

 Returning to the Big Apple, Harry tries to understand Jeff's intensions. There are no leads on what has come of the Cosmos. Harry states that he's somewhat relieved, that there is some closure, as the FBI conclude, he was the victim of a pirate homicide. Chris isn't at all convinced it was and Emma begs him to let go and leave Jeff in peace.

 Abraham and Elaina pay their condolences.

 Emma accidently bumps into her birth father, who insists he's not stalking her, but has decided to move to the city. Does he really mean what he says?

 Harry and Chris agree that Jeff should be buried, next to Harry and Jeff's parents in 'Hexville.'

 Chris tells Abraham, that Emma's biological father is attempting to see her, but it seems he is not getting the message and that Otto has recently passed away. Abraham assures Chris, he will sort the situation.

Bethany receives another secret note and heads to a phone booth and assures, whoever she is talking too, it's been dealt with and nobody is under suspicion yet. The only concern will be where the missing disk, ends up.

 A few days later, in upstate, suburban town, Hex-Ville, Jeff Wilson is put to rest next to parents, Mary and Jonathan. It's the first time, Harry has stepped into his home town in twenty two years. Chris is first to give his speech and tells the mourners, how Jeff encouraged him as a father and that even though at times he seemed controversial, he was just misunderstood and a hero in Chris's eyes not a monster. Chris adds, that no matter how the nation remembered Jeff in his last weeks, as a fugitive, Chris will always remember him as a loving husband to Sylvia and loving father to him.
 Harry is next to give his speech. Harry explains, that he and Jeff had somewhat different personalities at times and Jeff was almost the black sheep of the family. He always knew Jeff cared for him, but had often wanted to act tough and not show affection, but deep down in his heart, Jeff was as human as anybody else. Mary and Jonathan always loved Jeff, but were disappointed they could never be proud of him, but like what Chris said in his speech, he was just misunderstood and no matter, how people saw him in his last hour, Jeff was still Harry's brother and that he should finally spend his eternal peace with his parents. Harry holds back his emotions. After the service and Jeff is lowered into his grave and an American flag is placed over his coffin, Harry asks to be left alone. In the sunset, Harry decides to read Jeff's letter, he wrote almost twenty years ago.

 (Clint Eastwood's voice as Jeff Wilson is heard for the last time in this letter).

 'This has got to be the hardest thing I've had to write to somebody, who probably hates my guts right now. I'm ashamed for doing what I did three years ago. It was cowardly and selfish. I was thinking of my own self and didn't think to consider anyone else. You may not believe this, but it broke my heart when the news came to me, on my Mom and Dad. It put me in limbo and I couldn't face you, after the devastation I left behind. But, if I'm honest, I needed to make peace with them on my own. I watched you leave after their funeral and spend five minutes finding words to say how I felt. I was guilty. But I loved them too. They saw you as the apple of their eyes. I wanted to be seen that way too, but of course, you know how that panned out. I've got a confession to make, even though Willis took the full fall for that Cargo plane heist, he was right, I was involved, even though my alibi's were available to me. I only did it, so you could live happily ever after with Tina. I'm sorry to hear it didn't. This may seem little consolation to you, but in case you thought I didn't care, well I do. This key you see, in the envelope is the key for your brighter future. Follow this map and hopefully your heart, you'll find your destiny. This is my gift to you, as you know I'm not alive to tell you face to face, how sorry I am and how much I love you little brother. I've gotten in so much shit, this has what it's come to. And so now, I bid you farewell and I hope my gift to you, will give you the hope you need. Will love you always little brother.

 With a place in my heart, always, Jeff.

 P.S. We need justice for Mom and Dad. I beg of you, please don't rest until justice is served, even if it takes me to my last breath. Consider this an option of yours little brother.

Harry breaks down in tears as, he looks down at his brothers grave, as well as his parents.
 'I love you, brother. I'll try not to let you down,' Harry cries.
 Harry slowly walks away, grasping at a key and a map.

Several days later, Bethany returns home from work to find a letter from Harry, stating he's had to go away for a few days. This worries Bethany, as she fears he may suspect her true nature.

Mid May 2002, Mount Rushmore, South Dakota, after walking several miles from the incarnation of the presidents on the mountains, Harry finds the spot, where Jeff has left Harry his gift, something Jeff never mentioned during the time he appeared on the series. Harry makes sure the coast is clear and begins digging. He finds what looks like a huge cookie box, with a huge metal chain around it and a padlock with a keyhole. He unlocks the padlock and removes the chains and opens the box. It contains around $2.75 million. He then reads a note. 'It's all legal and above board. Spend it wisely now.' Love your big bro Jeff.'
 Harry laughs with tears.

Back in New York City, Abraham pays a visit to Emma's birth father and as a family friend of the Wilsons, warns him to stay away or he will seek that have him removed from city limits. Emma's birth father, feels intimidated.

 Harry returns and claims that Jeff had something surprising up his sleeve, long before his move to the city. Harry offers Chris a few hundred thousand dollars, but Chris turns it down and assures Harry, that it was Jeff's personal gift to Harry alone. Harry, Bethany and Rebecca decide to view a house on Long Island.

 Emma has another encounter with her biological father and claims it's driving him mad that, he has to be intimidated to stay away, when all he wants to do is explain and that he's not the same person he was.

Francis Bay, Eastern Long Island, the Eastern tip of the island, near Montauk, about 117 miles and a 2 hour and 20 minute drive away from the city, Harry, Bethany and Rebecca view their new home at the far north eastern tip of the bay, about a mile and a half from the town of Francis itself. There home has a small cabin, like cottage to the right of the house, with a lighthouse next to it. An medium sized estuary, lies in front of the house, which leads out to the Atlantic Ocean. Three are satisfied with the house and agree to take it.
 'Just think, Jeff has set you up for life,' Bethany adds, hugging her husband.
 'The money is not really that important,' Harry figures. 'It's just, I think it's time to start afresh.'
 'Leave all the bad memories behind?' Bethany says.
 'Right,' Harry agrees. 'The money Tina left for me in her will, I will give the rest to Rebecca.'
 'Daddy,' Rebecca interrupts, walking from the open kitchen. 'You don't have to worry about feeling greedy, I know you care, but.......'
 'No, buts,' Harry responds. 'Your mother would have wanted you to have a good future, just like Jeff thought the same way about me. And I want to share it with you and Bethany.'
 'I love you Harry Wilson,' Bethany smiles.
 'I love you too, Bethany Wilson.' Harry and Bethany share a passionate kiss.
 'Oooh, get a room you two,' Rebecca groans jokingly.
 'There's plenty in this house,' Harry laughs.
 'What jobs are associated with fishing towns?' Rebecca queries.
 'Fishing I guess, but we'll worry about that when we get here,' Bethany insists, turning back to Harry. 'Well, no place like home.'

 Harry, Bethany and Rebecca are on their way to their new home in Francis Bay, Long Island from New York City. On the way, they stop off at a gas station for a fill up and a snack. Whilst in the store, Rebecca bumps into a red headed lady wearing thick sun glasses and they trade apologies and flirty smiling glances. After Harry fills up the car and as the family are about to begin their final journey, Rebecca smiles back at the red headed girl and the girl is somewhat taken aback, when she spots Bethany from a distance. The Wilsons arrive at their new home on Francis Bay and begin to settle in. Rebecca and Bethany are surprised when they are welcomed to the bay, by Benjamin Bates, who was the stripper gram at Emma's hen party, a few months earlier. By coincidence, he is lives in Francis and is a fisherman. When queried, where he lives, he states on his boat and Harry offers him to rent out the small cabined house, between the main house and the lighthouse and Benjamin appreciates Harry's kind offer. Bethany agrees to take care of everything, due to her banking experience.

 Benjamin heads into the main small fishing town of Francis about a mile and a half from the Wilsons and accidently bumps into another new arrival, Deloris King, who has returned from a long duration at university. Deloris immediately falls for the dark, blue eyed prince, who helps her with her belongings into her parents cafeteria. Charlotte and Dominic are thrilled that their daughter has come home. Deloris thanks Benjamin for his kindness and hopefully suggests seeing him a round sometime. Benjamin assures her that it will be often. Charlotte is keen for Deloris to get her career off to a start and no better place than the Big Apple itself. Dominic encourages Charlotte not to force anything on their daughter.
 'I just want to see her make something of herself,' Charlotte says.
 'I know you do Ma Ma,' Deloris acknowledges. 'But, there's no rush.'
 'You want to be a lawyer don't you?' Charlotte adds.
 'Ma Ma , are you already trying to get rid of me?' Deloris wonders.
 'Of course not......oh God I've missed you so much,' Charlotte smiles.
 The two embrace and Charlotte does feel emotional, but why is she so desperate for her daughter to rush her future?
 'Ma, Ma, you don't have to keep doing this,' Deloris bluntly sighs.
 'What do you mean?' Charlotte shrugs.
 'Blaming yourself for what happened to James. Seeing yourself as a worthless mother. I never blamed you and Dad never did either. You suffered enough and you look better,' Deloris explains. 'I know you love me and want to be proud. At least lets try and bond again.'
 'Deloris is right, Charlotte,' Dominic insists. 'Let's concentrate on being a family for the time being, we all have a lot of catching up to do.'
 Charlotte agrees and Deloris heads upstairs, not before glancing out into the street and smiling at Benjamin, who smiles back. Charlotte kind of feels nerved by this and Dominic glares at Benjamin as Ben heads off to the harbour.

 New York City, Chris asks Emma's feelings on her real fathers suspected suicide? Emma claims she doesn't feel anything and points out, he was never part of her life.

 Abraham's case involving Emma's natural fathers death is brought to a close, much to a somewhat relieved Eric Lance, who thwarts two criminal attempting a store robbery. Abraham is pleased by Eric's assistance. But is Eric, what he seems?

Francis Bay, Rebecca is offered a job at the Kings Cafeteria and Deloris gets chatting to Benjamin at the harbour side and asks him out on a date. To her relief, he accepts.

 Bethany and Harry later meets the Kings and Harry is surprised to remember Dominic from 'Hex-Ville High School.' Bethany acts somewhat surprised, but is somewhat nervous around Charlotte, who feels the same towards Bethany.
 'Its been a long time Harry,' Dominic said.
 'Twenty two, twenty three years,' Harry figures.
 'That long?' Dominic gasps. 'Are you and Bethany......?'
 'Married, yes,' Harry nods.
 'Wow, that's.......great. What brings you to this neck of the woods?' Dominic asks.
 'We just moved here from the city, start a new life,' Harry informs. 'I believe you just employed my daughter.'
 'Rebecca is your daughter, what a coincidence,' Dominic chuckles. 'Looks like we got a lot of catching up to do.'
 Dominic pulls Harry aside and gives his condolences to him, following Jeff's passing. Harry explains his marriage to Tina and her devastating fate the previous year. Dominic asks Harry, if they ever found his parents murderers?
 'It's been the biggest mystery of my life,' Harry whispers. 'But, all I can do is live in hope.'

 Charlotte and Dominic later discuss the new town residents on closing time and Charlotte points out to Dominic, that Harry is married to a woman, who was on the same psychiatric ward as her, back in 1995. Dominic pretends to not have noticed, considering, he was in the same year as Bethany at High School.

 On her way home, Rebecca spots the red head headed lady wearing her sunglasses. Benjamin is given a home welcome gift by Bethany. On her way out she turns to Benjamin.
 'Oh, and behave yourself,' Bethany winks. 

 The red headed girl returns to her home in town. She partially opens the curtains to allow the moonlight in and she puts on a familiar necklace, a Cosmos necklace and she removes her sunglasses to reveal herself as Linda Perry, who was last seen in Season Fives 'My Step Lover's A Vampire Part II.'

One week later, Bethany begins her new job as an administrator, Rebecca and Deloris become close friends. Deloris begins dating Benjamin, much to her parents feel uncomfortable. And Harry surprises the family, when he reveals himself as Francis Bays new local police officer.

Harry has so much enthusiasm for his new job, as a local police enforcer, considering he is a millionaire, thanks to his deceased brother. Bethany is surprised, that Harry had kept quiet on becoming the bays new policeman and was stunned he got the job, seeing as he is recognized as a supposed deceased terrorists, brother. Harry states that, he has political experience, which he had with Otto and that his project on the 'New Jersey Suspension Bridge,' made him a good prospect and that personal references, saw him as a genuine person.

 Benjamin teaches Rebecca and his new love, Deloris fishing. Rebecca makes a fool of herself, when she falls into the water, from Benjamin's fishing boat, whilst hooking onto a big fish. The two lovers try their utmost best, not to laugh and Rebecca looks up and spots, who appears to be Linda Perry, in a veil and sunglasses. Benjamin points out, that she is quite strange, yet very attractive. This makes Rebecca curious.

 'Do you ever wish, you were a kid again Harry?' Dominic queries.

 

Monday, September 4th 1978, Hex-Ville, upstate New York.

 Eighteen year old, Harry Wilson is preparing for the beginning of Graduation year, at Hex-Ville High. Mary and Jonathan encourage, their youngest to make them proud. Jonathan reminds Harry, that Billy is apparently suggesting that, Harry and Tina shouldn't interact anymore, despite knowing each other for eleven years. Harry figures that Harry and Tina's friendship, has nothing to do with Jeff's criminal life. Other characters past and present are brought in frame, as the suburban life is introduced.

'Yvonne Elliman's ,'If I can't have you,' song begins to play for the introduction of Hex-Ville, High School.

 Harry and Tina exchange conversation and Bethany attempts to flirt with him and says hello to Tina, without trying to feel jealous. Dominic tries to woo Bethany, but she blatantly ignores him and walks away. Harry notices Greg has a bruise on his arm and he passes this off, as falling down the stairs. Harry asks Tina, if she'd like to meet up for a burger after school, but Tina claims she is busy, but can arrange for another time. Dominic is humiliated at lunch time, when tow bullies pour water on the floor and Dominic falls on his backside and everybody laughs. Bethany doesn't laugh, but doesn't show any support either, when people mock her that she and Dominic would make a perfect couple.

 Later, Bethany returns home and finds her mother, drunk and passed out. Carla is then seen coming down the staircase, dressed like a prostitute.
 'You're gonna have to cook for yourself tonight sis, I'm going out,' Carla cruelly remarks.
 'No shit,' Bethany replies. 'I mean how often do you dress like a whore and watch the TV?' Bethany sarcastically replies.
 'Don't worry sis, you'll get your turn, like when you're sixty five,' Carla teases.
 'Who's on the menu this time?' Bethany asks. 'Hank Willis?'
 'Don't worry sis, I'll try and keep away from your high school crush, laters.'

 So much for sisterly love. Bethany retreats to her bedroom. Bethany and Carla are alike in looks, not so much in personality. They also have the same likeness, as their grandparents, not so much their parents. Rumour has it, Carla's father, isn't Bethany's.

 Billy is adamant Tina, doesn't hang around with Harry, no more and she storms off. Audrey suggests that Billy go easy on her and that, Harry is a decent kid.
 'When I need your opinion, I'll ask for it,' Billy argues. 'It's about time you and Mary Wilson called time on your friendship.'
 'Don't go giving me orders,' Audrey groans. 'Just because you're a solicitor. The Wilsons have done me no personal harm.....'
 'No, but their son has and sooner or later Harry will follow in his shoes,' Billy figures. 'This is a suburb community and it requires peace.'
 'Peace?' Audrey laughs. 'I need peace from you.'
 'Oh shut up, you glorified tart, if it wasn't for me......'
 'If it weren't for you?' Audrey snaps. 'What exactly have you done for me, except abuse me and my kids?'
 'You just don't listen,' Billy shouts.
 'Why should I listen to you?'
 'I'm gonna save you a fortune on eye shadow, if you ain't careful girl,' Billy threats.
 'Are you threatening my mother,' Greg interrupts.
 'Do what I do, love, just ignore him,' Audrey suggests.
 'Yeah, keep your nose out sunshine, that way it won't get broke,' Billy warns.
 Greg backs down and retreats to do his home work.

 Harry sits watching a football game with his father and Mary asks what's bothering him? Harry is worried, that Billy has brainwashed Tina, not to see him. Meanwhile, Bethany sits watching Alfred Hitchcock's 'Psycho' in her room, as Tina and Hank Willis get into a passionate clinch. Jeff interrupts and says they have to be somewhere. Tina hurries home and whilst driving, Hank tells Jeff to stop and take Carla for a ride, which they do. Harry looks out of his bedroom, at the moonlit night.

Friday 16th August 2002, Francis Bay, Harry is stood near the estuary, looking out to sea, remembering the first moments of the last year of his graduation. (Not all the scenes from the flashbacks are from his personal memory). Rebecca and Linda come face to face again and Rebecca asks Linda, if she'd like to see the harbour firework display? Linda is hesitant at first, but eventually agrees to it. Rebecca is curious, why Linda never seems to remove her sunglasses. Linda claims, she is sensitive to any sort of light.

 Charlotte tells Bethany, that it's a coincidence, that she was at the same mental hospital as her, and are that Harry, Dominic and Bethany were at school together and are now living in the same town. Bethany thinks it's just one of them things.

 Deloris attempts to seduce Benjamin, but he pulls back, when he claims he's a virgin. Deloris agrees to give him time.

It's early September 2002, early evening, about three miles away from Francis Bay, a panicky and emotional Rebecca, is seen dumping a heavy sack down a six foot hole, in a woodland which she has dug and starts to refill the hole. Rebecca is all over the place and in tatters. Rebecca looks at her hand, it's blood. It appears Rebecca is disposing of a dead body. A cold shiver is sent down Rebecca's spine, but her instincts keep telling her to do away with the evidence.
 Linda Perry sits her bathtub, with only candle light on, wearing the necklace of the Cosmos, and grasping a crucifix. Rocking backwards and forwards, Linda is traumatized by the actions of the beast within her, which was brought on by an accidental metamorphosis. The sunlight is currently her enemy. To allow it to shine for her again and to protect the community, she'll need the cure info, that Jeff Wilson's alliances misplaced.
 'Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me,' Linda whispers, kissing her cross.
 Rebecca obscures herself from view, as the sunsets.

 It's around 2:45 a.m., Bethany awakes to somebody whispering to her. She looks to the front of the bed and is shocked to find, Charlotte staring at her. It appears Charlotte is sleep walking and in a trance. Bethany tries to not to wake Harry, but he is also woken up.
 'Do you want to play charades Bethany?' Charlotte whispers.
 'Charlotte, what are you doing here?' Bethany asks.
 'James loves charades, he's really clever,' Charlotte smiles.
 Harry sits up and wonders how and why Charlotte is in their house, in the early hours of the morning.
 'I think she's sleep walking,' Bethany figures.
 'How the hell did she get in here? Harry wonders. 'I swear I locked the doors.
 'Rebecca most probably forgot to lock them, when she came in,' Bethany sighs.
 'Not so much noise, the nurses and other patients will get annoyed,' Charlotte tells Bethany.
 Harry frowns, wondering what Charlotte is talking about. Bethany assures Harry, she is sick and misses her son, who passed away in a fire, which she blamed herself for. Bethany escorts Charlotte to her car and drives her back home. Next morning, Harry tells Rebecca she forgot to lock the door, but she is in a world of her own. Harry notices she looks rather pale. Rebecca claims she didn't sleep well, as she'd like to have had.

 Deloris and Dominic fear a mental breakdown with Charlotte, but Charlotte doesn't remember her previous night sleep walk.

 Rebecca finds Linda sitting in the dark and assures her, that she has got her back.
 'You've taken a big risk for me,' Linda says.
 'It comes from caring,' Rebecca states.
 'I do love you Rebecca,' Linda declares. 'But, you taking on something, that's even out of my control.'
 'Linda, you didn't ask for this,' Rebecca comforts. 'It's something that I'm willing conceal.'
 'I worked for a society, that destroyed thousands of lives. I got infected by your uncles second wife. I am a f***** vampire, who is unable to be exposed to sunlight for no more than twenty minutes...... and I am living in the same town as your step mother, who is somewhat connected to the Cosmos. Rebecca you are in way over your head, eventually Bethany will discover that I'm living here and she will do whatever it takes to rid me. And since you got your other secret to contend with, I'm just the one burden you don't need.'
 'All I ever wanted, was to be loved. That's why I did what I did,' Rebecca explains. 'And that's why, I'm protecting you. Because you need to be loved too and there is no doubt in my heart. I want to find a way for us to be together forever.'

 About three days later, Harry investigates a missing persons report. Fisherman, Gary Powell has mysteriously vanished without any warning. The towns people tell Harry, that Gary is a respected gentleman and would have informed his closest friends on his whereabouts. His fishing trawler is still sat in the Bay harbour and his truck still remains outside his home. Linda sits watching the local news on missing fisherman Gary and she suspects, that she may have also done away with him too. Rebecca realizes, that the body she hid, may not have been the only victim in the vampire attacks.

 Benjamin and Charlotte are invited to dinner at the Wilsons, where they meet Chris and Emma, who have arrived from New York City. Emma thinks Rebecca is nervous at seeing her again, but Emma is the least of Rebecca's worries for the time being. Benjamin seems to take an attraction to Chris, which is obscured from Charlotte. The Wilsons discuss the memorial for the one year anniversary of the devastating attacks and the supposed fatality of Tina, and sad passing's of James and George. Plus, Benjamin references the mysterious disappearances of two of Francis Bays, town folk.

 Dominic spots Charlotte standing on the edge of their bedroom window, calling out James name.

About 26 miles north of Manhattan, near the White Plains, Eric Lance, meets with old ghost from his past, Robert Pane. Eric attempts to assure Bob, that he's made a mistake and that he's not Hank Willis and warns he could face harassment charges, as a bluff. Bob, then points out the rings that Eric is wearing and they are replica, as the ones he used to wear as Hank and are on the same finger and he has a familiar scar on his left hand. Bob, accuses Eric of orchestrating the death of a mafia family in Miami, in 1997, that wanted him dead for not paying his debts and Robert, who is now a drifter, was the scapegoat, but eventually got released from jail after six months, due to other evidence. He figures Hank faked his own death, got a face lift and is now posing as Eric, a city cop. Bob tells Eric, that he will make a deal with him to keep quiet. Bob has been made aware of a priceless Heirloom, stashed in a mansion house, outside the city and wants Eric to do the job......alone. If Eric doesn't comply, he will attempt to expose him, by forcing Eric for a blood test to prove his identity. Eric laughs and adds that he has experience in several Martial Arts. Bob draws a shot gun and Eric backs down. Bob assures Eric he will be in touch.

Wednesday, September 11th 2002, Ground Zero, Lower Manhattan, many thousands gather on early evening to pay tribute to the victims who sadly perished a year ago to the day. The Wilson family, plus Abraham, Elaina, Andy and Eric are at the event and many are holding candle lights. Chris was aware George died that day, who was murdered by the now deceased Jill Flanders. James Fletcher also passed away, due to protecting his long time friend and colleague, Tina. And Tina supposedly died, before she could get out of the downstairs lobby of the North Tower. Bethany could never deny, what Harry and Tina had between them. Tina was Harry's first love. Whilst Harry prays that Tina is in peace, Bethany is distracted by the presence of Eric Lance. After the gathering, Eric whispers, that he appreciates everything, but wants to keep a fair distance away from Bethany's and Carla's personal troubles from now on, and be left to live his life. Bethany reminds Eric, who he really is and not to get too comfortable, despite her moving to Long Island. Eric states that Bethany must have gone to desperate measures to finally get her man. Harry meets Eric and Eric is aware, who Harry is. Harry is not aware, that Eric is the man, that once had a fling with Tina and associated himself with Jeff and brought shame to the suburbs of Hex-Ville, in the mid/late 70's.

 At a get together, at Chris and Emma's apartment, Eric closely watches Rebecca and Emma in conversation and Bethany comes by him, to try and not cause any suspicion.
 'What are you up to? Bethany asks.
 'Just reminding myself, what I did, what for,' Eric smiles.
 'OK, I agree, but just remember who's protecting you now,' Bethany says.
 'Oh yes, don't remind me,' Eric whispers. 'But, isn't your dear eldest sibling up to it in her neck right now?'
 'Carla can look after herself,' Bethany replies.
 'And you?' Eric queries.
 'I have the distraction of my new family, I have Harry,' Bethany points out.
 'Your fantasies finally came true,' Eric sighs. 'But, you've still got that excess baggage.'
 'If you claim to have wiped your hands clean, so be it,' Bethany accepts. 'But, if you hit a snag, don't you dare make it personal with me and my family, because you know what will happen.'
 Eric drinks up his scotch. 'Oh yeah, loud and clear.'

 Later that evening, Harry, Bethany and Rebecca begin their two hour return to Francis Bay.

 Long Island, Deloris, Dominic and Charlotte attend a counselling meeting and talk about James, who passed away in the fire. Charlotte, thought she had come to grips with her past finally, but that feeling will always be there.

 Back in Francis Bay, Rebecca enters Linda's home and finds Linda sat up naked, traumatized, covered in blood and sat next to a brutally savaged body.

 Bethany suspects Rebecca is up to something, but Harry thinks it's just his daughter trying to adapt to life outside the city.

Next day, at the New York Times, Chris heads out on a story, when Elaina is interrupted by Robert Pane, who states that a robbery is about to take place, but suggests that the police has not been informed until story has been published and the crime has been committed.
 'Why?' Elaina asks.
 'I want him to think, he's won, but he's actually dug himself a hole,' Bob smiles.
 'You and this guy, have a personal issue,' Elaina suspects. 'And you're setting him up.'
 'If you agree protect me, I will give unveil the biggest conspirator of them all, believe me, I'd be doing your husband a favour.'

Outskirts of Manhattan, Eric thinks he's gotten away with a burglary at a mansion. He's worked the security system a treat and has escaped with a heirloom, worth millions. Little does he know, the job has been witnessed by Elaina and Chris. They are shocked to learn, that Abrahams new law enforcer is a criminal, but Elaina reminds Chris, there is more to Eric, than his criminal activity, from what Robert Pane told her, Eric has changed his identity and to prove he is not, who he says he is, requires a blood sample. Chris asks Elaina, if she wants it published straight away? Elaina refuses to do so just yet, as she has a plan up her sleeve, which Robert may go along with.

 Harry is working on a missing woman's case at Francis Bays local police station. It's the third one in two weeks. Harry suspects foul play. Later, Harry is sorting out his locker, when he comes by a photograph of him and Harry at a bar together.

 

 Thursday 5th October 1978, Hexville, Courthouse.

 Jeff and Hank are accused of assault on a rival gangsters cousin, but Otto Cole states there were no other witnesses, except themselves and local police officer, Albert Kray, who even said, that he saw Jeff and Hank the other end of town, around the time the rival gangsters cousin claimed he was assaulted and that the assault may have been staged in an attempt to implicate Jeff and Hank. Billy stands by his clients claims and suspects Kray may have taken a bribe or involved in a conspiracy with the local crimes. The jury throws this out and Jeff and Hank are acquitted, much to the humiliation of the rival gangs cousin and dismay of Billy.

 Harry spots Tina and Hank frolicking and this hurts him, but Jeff tells Harry to let her go. On their way home, Billy confronts Jeff and asks him, how he managed to avoid the slammer? Jonathan steps in and reminds Billy, that the world doesn't revolve around him. But, Billy vows to prove that the Wilsons are all criminals.

 Bethany confronts her mother, Marilyn and claims she knows who her biological father is.
 'I'm warning you sweetheart, don't go down that road,' Marilyn warns, grabbing a bottle of vodka.
 'Do you still love him?' Bethany wonders
.
 'Doesn't matter now, I mean he can't even look at you the same way, he does his two other kids,' Marilyn points out. 'Tommy is your daddy.'
 'Only when he wants to be,' Bethany sighs. 'He is away on a job, that we don't know what it is and dear sister Carla, claims she's in the dark, just as much as we are.'
 'You're getting food put on the table at the end of the day,' Marilyn slurs.
 'And you stuffing your face with booze,' Bethany moans.
 'Don't you give me that tone of voice young lady,' Marilyn argues.
 'I know it's tough, but you have me.....and Carla, isn't that enough?' Bethany asks.
 'I know.'
 'Sometimes I get the feeling you and Carla resent me, for not being the person you want me to be,' Bethany cries.
 'Bethany, just go to your room, we don't need to discuss this anymore,' Marilyn insists.
 Bethany feels shunned, when her mother takes the bottle with her into the living room. Bethany puts the trash out and spots Tina walking down the street. Tina glances over and Bethany smiles. Tina partially smiles and walks away.

 Bethany heads out for a little walk and walks to near the Mcquire's household. Albert Kray stops by in his patrol car and asks her if she is ok? Bethany assures him she is fine and he drives away, as he ignores a domestic from the house. Bethany slowly walks to side gate and spots Billy assaulting Greg, as Audrey tries to calm him. Billy then spots Bethany, who freezes on the spot. Billy storms up to the open gate and slams it in her face, not before verbally insulting her.
 'What are you looking at, you little Bitch?!'

 Monday, September 16th 2002, Long Island, Bethany is then startled by the honking of a horn behind her, on the open country road on Long Island. Purposely she slows down, much to the annoyance of the driver of the Mercedes.
 'C'mon get out of the way,' the male driver groans.
 The driver flashes his headlights, as Bethany continues to ignore his pleas.
 'That's great,' the driver grunts looking at his watch. 'Never f***** get there. C'mon lady.'
 He attempts to swerve around Bethany, as she smirks to herself. He almost collides with a truck.
 'F***!' the driver gasps.
 He tries once more and speeds along side her and gives her a piece of his mind, but Bethany doesn't seem to give a damn.
 'Hey lady! What is your f***** problem? Stupid Bitch!' The impatient driver gets in front of her and deliberately slows down before speeding off and giving the middle finger. 'There ya go lady, think about that one.'
 Bethany is seething and gets a good look at the drivers number plate.

Bethany is on a red light and spots Rebecca acting suspiciously and carrying a large like golf club bag. Later, Rebecca tells Linda, she would love to see her eyes more clearly, but Linda cries that even wearing the necklace now, it doesn't always guarantee, she won't suffer another metamorphosis. Rebecca suggests running away together, where Linda is less likely going to harm anyone. Linda says she'll sleep on it. Kissing Linda goodnight, Rebecca steps out and heads home, whilst Bethany watches across the street.

 Bethany arrives home to see Harry and Dominic discussing Charlottes recent problems and Harry suggests inviting her over for dinner. This makes Bethany feel a little uncomfortable, considering she and Charlotte were once in a psychiatric ward together. Dominic asks if there are any leads on the three missing people? Harry thinks there is foul play and will step up the investigation, as most of the missing cases, lived within a three mile radius of Francis Bay. Moments later, Rebecca walks in.

Chris and Elaina go to a pick up point, but Robert is no show. They wait nearly an hour and have a bad feeling. A mile away in a scrapyard, Robert is gagged inside the trunk of car, with the heirloom next to him. He is crushed to death.
 Back at the office, Elaina decides to call a meeting with Abraham. Chris says he will try and distract Eric into a confrontation. Chris hurries to the elevator. As he steps in, Emma enters from the other elevator and has missed Chris by seconds. Elaina cannot get through to Abrahams office, nor get him on his patrol car phone. She spots Emma and informs her of Eric's robbery and possible fake identity. Chris hurries to his car, but finds it has a flat tyre. Emma and Elaina step into the elevator and find Eric disguised as janitor. He stops the elevator.
 'You thought you and that hotshot reporter of yours, could set me up with a tramp like Pane?' Eric growls.
 'Who are you?' Elaina worries, clutching onto Emma.
 'Who am I?' Eric sarcastically teases. 'I'm usually a guy who can compromise certain things, but this, could be beyond anything but that. But since, Mrs Wilsons here, and saved your bacon, maybe she can convince you to keep her husband quiet.'
 'What's your identity crisis got to do with me?' Emma shakes.
 'Nothing much, but what I know about you, you'd better pray that she has the kindness to go along with what I'm about to offer,' Eric puzzles the two girls.
 'What's he talking about Emma?' Elaina asks.
 'What do you know about me?' Emma wonders.
 'Your sexuality crisis,' Eric laughs.

 Elaina tells Chris to keep quiet about Eric true identity, as she lies that she and Eric have been have an affair behind Abrahams back, but in truth, Eric has put Emma and Elaina's friendship to the test, when he threats to expose Emma's brief fling with Rebecca, if Elaina threatens his freedom. How is Eric aware of Emma and Rebecca's one time affair and will Elaina keep quiet to save a murderer and a criminal who has changed his identity?

 Rebecca lies awake, holding recent photo booth picture of herself and Linda, who dons her scarf, sunglasses and Cosmos necklace. She kisses the picture. If her love for Emma was probably her first love, then maybe Linda is her first love, even if she has an uncontrollable dark side. Bethany lies awake, aware that Rebecca is sneaking into a woman's home. Bethany will yet to find out who she is. Harry is already asleep.

 Benjamin assures Charlotte, that he is not leading Deloris on and later declares his love for her. Later, when Benjamin returns to his small cabin near the Wilsons, he jumps when he catches his own reflection in the mirror. Then looks at Chris's picture, near one of his articles of the New York Times.

 Next morning, Rebecca is working a shift at the Kings Cafeteria, when she receives a surprise visit from Emma, who blatantly walks up to her and spits in her face.
 'Don't tell me, you drove a hundred and twenty miles to assault me,' Rebecca gasps.
 'Our friendship is over, I hope you're satisfied,' Emma cries, storming out.
 'What are you talking about?' Rebecca tearfully panics.
 'You'll never change,' Emma shouts, jumping into her car and speeding off. 'I loved you.'
 Rebecca is stunned, upset and bewildered. It's Highly unlikely that Rebecca is aware of Eric Lance.

 On her way home back to New York City in tears, Emma looks down towards an embankment and spots an overturned Mercedes.

.

 


 It's several days, since the discovery of the of body, who was the man who was infuriated by Bethany on the country road. He had been brutally hacked to death. Rebecca profusely attempts to call Emma, but her private phone keeps going to answer phone. It's clear that Emma is now avoiding Rebecca, as Emma has been made to think, that Rebecca has spoken too much to certain people about their one time affair. And it's a secret that has put Elaina in predicament.

 Harry begins to wonder if there is a connection between the missing and the recent killing.

 In her scarf, sunglasses and wearing her necklace, and tights Linda is encouraged into a day out with Rebecca, whom fobs off Bethany, that she is seeing a former work colleague from the city, but Bethany doesn't buy this and cautiously follows her and Linda. Rebecca and Linda head to a beach, two miles south of Francis and discuss their future. Rebecca declares her love for Linda, despite her unusually dangerous side, in which she cannot control. Linda is scared, harm will come to Rebecca, if they choose to run, but Rebecca is adamant, that she will help keep Linda in check and maybe when the time comes, help find Linda a cure, if freedom is guaranteed. But, that's a big ask and it may take years to find a cure. Rebecca attempts to get Linda to remove her scarf, but Linda cannot promise, the necklace will always protect her, but Rebecca assures her lover, she is safe with her. Linda removes her scarf and her long red hair, lowers down. There are no affects from the sun, and after moments of debate from Rebecca, Linda removes her sunglasses, with her back to the sun. The Cosmos necklace seems to be keeping Linda safe for the time being. It's Rebecca's warmth that is somewhat stopping Linda having a vampire outburst. Rebecca sees Linda's green eyes clearly for the first time and vice versa. It's brings tears to both their eyes and they share a passionate kiss. The two girls then share a tender hug. Resting her head on Rebecca's shoulders, Linda looks in the direction of the country road and spots Bethany spying from a distance. Suddenly, Linda feels threatened by Rebecca's stepmothers presence and her eyes flash red and her fangs sharpen in her teeth and this shakes Rebecca, who immediately, throws Linda to the floor and places her sunglasses back on and covers her head with her scarf, after a struggle. After, assuring Linda she's safe, Linda returns to her normal self. Linda breaks down in Rebecca's arms.

 Later, that evening Benjamin asks Deloris, if she'd like dinner on his boat and she agrees, thinking she is about to be seduced. Benjamin returns to his fisherman cabin and finds his machete missing. This worries him and he is again, startled by his own reflection in a broken mirror. Deloris asks him, what is bothering him? Benjamin pretends everything is fine.

 Back in Manhattan, outside Central Park, Elaina and Emma come face to face for the first time, in a week.
 'I'm not surprised, you kept a low profile, worried I might spoil you happy ever after?' Elaina curses. 'You have put me in the biggest predicament of my life.
 'I'm sorry, I didn't know Rebecca.......' Emma tries to explain.
 'You didn't know Rebecca would talk to somebody, who is as dirty as you and her put together,' Elaina interrupts.
 'We never had an affair, it was a one night stand,' Emma insists. 'Rebecca was in love with me and I guess, I thought I may have had them sort of feelings for her, but I am in love with Chris.'
 'My husband is going to be working with a murdering scumbag for God knows how long, because I have to save your bacon,' Elaina reminds Emma. 'But, just to remind you Emma, I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing it for my friend and colleague, your husband.'
 'I know, I'm sorry,' Emma cries.
 'Sorry, make it easy for you to say, doesn't it?' Elaina argues. 'Rebecca is free from this torture, considering she lives the other side of Long Island now.........Chris won't keep his nose out of this forever Emma, he will do whatever it takes to reveal the real Eric Lance, even if he thinks I'm the one having an affair, with a psycho with an identity crisis.'
 'I'll try an talk him round,' Emma suggests.
 'You do that. And you had better pray, nobody else ends up dead, because of my abetting and your dirty secret,' Elaina warns.

 On Benjamin's boat in Francis Bay Harbour, Benjamin continuously visions Christopher, as he forces himself to make love to Deloris.

 Charlotte is in a deep sleep and dreaming, she is in the mental asylum and she catches Bethany and Dominic having sex in a dormitory and she is then seen running, visioning the last moments of her son, James, last moments in a house fire. Bethany and Dominic laugh, as do all the other mental health patients. Charlotte awakes screaming and Dominic comforts her.

 Next day, Charlotte tells Dominic of the trauma she had suffered in the institution, but doesn't mention, Bethany and Dominic's sexual moment. Dominic remembers how he felt, when he was at school, being tormented by school bullies.


 

Early November 1978, Hex-Ville, upstate New York.

Dominic is on the bus to school, when he is tormented by school bullies, suggesting that he is geeky and wouldn't even have a chance with Bethany, even if she is a dork too. Harry steps in to defend Dominic.
 'How old are you exactly? Harry interrupt.
 'What's this matter got to do with you Wilson?' the Bully groans.
 'Considering, he's done f*** all to piss you off, I'd say you have issues,' Harry argues.
 Tina turns round and witnesses, Harry's decent act of peace.
 'I have issues, sorry you must be confusing me with your brother,' the bully laughs. 'It's a shame, he had his car tyres let down by the way.'
 'Oh, I'll tell him that shall I? I'm sure he'll find a way of showing his gratitude to you,' Harry sarcastically replies.
 'You wouldn't dare,' the bully thinks.
 'Not, if he doesn't consider, wrapping your car tyres round your neck,' Harry grunts.
 'There was me thinking, you were the wise boy of the family. Have to watch you,' Johnson warns. Johnson looks back to Dominic. 'Catch ya later, loser.'
 Johnson and his other cronies back away and Dominic thanks Harry. Before they leave the bus, Johnson turns to Tina, who bites on an apple.
 'That looks tasty, may I have a bite?' Johnson teases.
 'Have ever bit on broken glass?' Greg interrupts.

 'Leave it Greg,' Tina demands.
 'Yeah, leave it Greg, of course you know what broken glass tastes like, with your Dad around,' Johnson laughs walking off, with the other bullies.

Greg heads into the school toilets and sneaks a bottle of vodka. It's the beginning of a history of alcohol abuse, of which his father, Billy had started. Tina gives Harry a nice gesture for the way he stood up for Dominic against Johnson. Harry asks about her and local gangster Hank Willis?
 'Why do you ask?' Tina queries.
 'Because, he hangs out with my brother and he's the local thug,' Harry adds.
 'You're not going to tell my dad are you?' Tina worries.
 'No, I'm not, but I'm still your friend, we've known each other since we were seven,' Harry explains.
 'How could I not know that?' Tina nods. 'But, I am a big girl now. I can look after myself.'
 'I just don't want you digging your self a hole, especially if either your Dad finds out or Hank gets you involved in something,' Harry states.
 'Do you ever give advice to Jeff?' Tina wonders.
 'Advice on right from wrong?' Harry replies. 'Sometimes, I don't even want his advice.'
 'Is it asking too much if I give you advice, friendly that is, as always?' Tina smiles.
 'Do I have a choice?' Harry groans.
 'Just pretend your not jealous,' Tina winks.
 'Jealous?'

 'We've been friends too long, don't spoil it. I'll see you round.'
 Tina turns and walks off, feeling really stupid for saying what she said, but it seems she has grown close to Hank and this hurts Harry.

 Mary finds Audrey crying, who says that Billy had once been a charming and warm person, but his job and events over recent years has changed him and he has been negligent towards Greg. Mary queries why? Audrey thinks it's because he sees Greg as weak and that he accuses her of being more respectful towards Greg, than him. Audrey insists her friendship with Mary will not change, but is scared that Billy will eventually get his own way. Mary invites Audrey to her birthday get together, if she'd like to go.

 Jeff surprises his mother with flowers and a card and claims, it's one date he could never forget. Harry suspects Jeff is up to something, but Jeff argues that Harry has too much of suspicious mind. Jonathan gives Jeff the benefit of the doubt as he thinks Jeff hasn't committed anymore crimes. Yeah Right. The family take Mary to see a show in town and is joined by Audrey and Otto. Audrey feels weird sat next to her husbands opposite number. Jeff buys her a drink, as a peace offering. Audrey and Mary head into the bathroom and unexpectedly Carla Morrison, enters dressed in skimpy shorts, a short shirt and a cowboy hat.
 'It's got a little warm in here, hasn't it?' Jeff smirks.
 'Actually, I feel uncomfortable now,' Harry sighs.
 'You won't be saying that, when she sits on your lap, little brother,' Jeff chuckles.
 Carla starts dancing and she teases Otto, then Jeff and places a secret note in his pocket, before planting a kiss on Harrys cheek. Carla then teases Jonathan by riding on his knee, much to the disgust of Mary, who marches up to Carla and slaps her across the face. Mary calls her all the names under the sun and suggests Carla go look after her unstable mother.

 Next we see Carla and Jeff in a clinch. It seems he and Hank like fooling around with the local slut. Hank and Tina taking a ride on a stolen bike. Harry sits outside the bar, feeling lonesome. Bethany watches TV with her drunk mother. Greg drinks again. And Otto and Audrey jump into bed with each other.


Late September 2002, New York City. Elaina gets the shock of her life, when Abraham invites Eric Lance round for dinner and Eric meets Andy. Elaina holds her nerve in front of a man, who's faked his own death and changed his identity, not to forget to mention, the murder of Robert Pane and his blackmailing. But, not revealing a dark secret to Chris, about his wife, in order to protect a murderous cop, won't do her any favours in the long run. Plus, she is deceiving Abraham and putting their son in danger. Elaina knows the consequences. If Eric suspects that Elaina might, tell the truth, it could be her life and Chris's, or the truth of Rebecca and Emma's affair.

 Chris figures, that by doing Elaina a favour, because she told him, she had an affair with Eric, could have serious and dangerous consequences. Emma begs Chris not to play dangerously, as she fears losing Chris, the same way as her father Otto. Chris agrees to back down, but just for now. But, how long is for now?

Francis Bay, Long Island. It's almost midnight. Harry arrives home from work, where Bethany asks if Harry has found any leads on the drivers killer. Harry disappointed informs Bethany, they have no leads, nor on the missing locals and heads up to bed. Bethany checks in on Emma, who's fast asleep. Bethany heads downstairs and notices Benjamin's truck is not there and she looks up at the lighthouse. As she turns to head back in, Linda Perry stops her in her tracks.
 'You may have been once a power in the Cosmos society, but now I'm in control,' Linda warns.
 'Yeah, I remember you,' Bethany answers. 'You were one of the agents that disappeared, after a vampire attack, the day the Cosmos was discovered in the passages underneath Wall Street.'
 'I admit, it was me that managed to spread that virus,' Linda confesses. 'I had nothing to lose. And I won't again, if you try and destroy me and Rebecca. She's aware of your historic occupation, as well as mine.'
 ' The Cosmos wasn't my occupation. Anyway, What about Rebecca's secret, did she tell you hers?' Bethany queries.
 'We're not all perfect,' Linda argues.
 'You're most certainly not,' Bethany bullies. 'Between you and me, you wouldn't have any thing to do with the missing locals would you and the death of that driver would you?'
 'That's quite a nasty accusation, that hurts.'
 'Just looking out for my step daughter.'
 'Whatever. From now on, if I were you, I'd look after myself,' Linda threats. 'And if you ever interfere once more I will reveal your hidden skeletons to loving husband Harry. I love Rebecca. You are not ruining us or I just maybe, just maybe..... I could bite.'
 Linda's eyes flash red and fangs show. Bethany holds her nerve as Linda walks away. Bethany may have something up her sleeve already.

 SPECIAL GUEST STAR:
 CASSIDY FREEMAN as Linda Perry.

 

 

Tuesday, October 1st 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island. The local authorities learn that the dismembered body of the driver of the Mercedes, had his tyre's blown out prior to his car crash and his brutal slaughter. The Mayor decides he wants local officers to step up the case, as he fears there may be a connection to the murder and the missing Harbour Master and girl. Harry takes centre stage for the case and is determined to get to the bottom of the matter and solve the case. With a population of around five hundred, the head chief of police, sends out his police enforcers in certain parts of the town to interview the towns people, if they are suspicious of anyone or what has caught their eye. Harry suggests he start with the Kings, as they may feel more comfortable speaking to him. The chief of police agrees.

 Linda seems to have had good control over her metamorphosis and growing closer to Rebecca, has made her feel more human, but Rebecca makes it aware to Linda, that law enforcers are spreading out across a twenty five mile radius of Long Island, to investigate the missing people of Francis Bay and the murder of the driver. Linda then suspects the murder of the driver, couldn't have been her doing, by the way the local news described his possible demise. Linda doesn't mention her face to face encounter with Bethany.

 Rebecca is at work and Bethany walks in and asks her, if she is keeping anything away from herself and Harry and if she is seeing anyone, that she feels she doesn't need to share? Rebecca asks why Bethany would feel like that? Bethany has noticed, that Rebecca hasn't spent as much time with the family, as she would have liked. Rebecca assures Bethany, there is nothing wrong. Bethany doesn't mention her face to face encounter with Linda either. Charlotte gets paranoid, when she suggests that the police will suspect her, because of her mental stability. Dominic puts Charlottes mind at rest and Deloris offers to take her mother shopping to New York City at the weekend. Deloris informs Benjamin of this and he thinks it's a good idea.

 Benjamin later turns up for work and finds a brand new machete hanging up, before glancing at himself in the mirror. He turns round and spots Harry in his police uniform with Bethany. Harry kisses Bethany before he heads to the Kings Cafeteria. Bethany turns to Benjamin and winks at him.

 Linda sits at home, wondering what to say, when the police arrive.

Rebecca returns home and heads to the telephone to call Linda. She drops her purse, as Bethany enters and she comes upon a photograph of herself and Linda.
 'Is this the girl you've been trying to keep secret?' Bethany queries, acting dumb.
 'You would know all about secrets Bethany, wouldn't you?' Rebecca sarcastically replies.
 'We have a lot of them don't we?' Bethany laughs. 'But, are our previous ones worse, than your recent one? Sleeping with a woman, who is Ms Jekyll and Ms Hyde, I mean it must be a full time job, compared to your coffee shop job at the Kings, cleaning up your lovers victims blood stains.'
 'Do you love him?' Rebecca asks.
 'Oh, the man you call your Daddy,' Bethany whispers. 'More than anything. But, he's not a killer and if you truly love Miss Perry, then you let justice be served.'
 'I could say the same about you and your connection to that Cosmos society,' Rebecca counters. 'What's you excuse?'
 'I'm all passed that, I was just another passer by in that area,' Bethany lies.
 'Well, she seemed pretty sure, you had more to do with that money laundering company, by the way she described your appearance,' Rebecca explains.
 'Rebecca, I'm not lying to you. I've been loyal to you,' Bethany claims, moving towards Rebecca placing her hands on her waist. 'And didn't we promise each other, to look out for each other and share one another?' Bethany grips Rebecca's butt tightly. 'She could never love you like I could. She's gonna have to kill me, if she intends on taking you away from me.' Bethany tenderly kisses Rebecca on the lips.

 Police interview local store owners, and even the Francis born locals, have stated that there hasn't been a shooting, murder or missing person in the town for almost a quarter of a century. Harry interviews the Kings. Dominic gives his statement to Harry and that Dominic has been too distracted with running the business and caring for Charlotte, plus the return of their daughter, Deloris, who has been too occupied with her new relationship with Benjamin.

Later, Harry returns home to find Abraham had paid a surprise visit. Abraham cracks open a bottle of red wine?
 'How was your day?' Abraham queries.
 'Swell,' Harry smirks.
 'Hear about your recent case, sounds brutal,' Abraham adds.
 'Yeah,' Harry agrees. 'I sometimes wonder if I brought the Big Apple with us. How's life in the old city?'
 'Found a man pan caked in car trunk, in junkyard a few weeks back,' Abraham informs. 'But, like your case no leads.'
 'This kind of a deja vu thing. Jeff had his problems with Paul Harland's Grim Reaper personality. God knows who I'm dealing with?' Harry wonders.
 Benjamin then enters with Deloris, who forces Benjamin to admit his theory. He tells Harry, he may have his suspicions on a girl, who lives a mile out of town. This surprises Harry.

 Rebecca finishes work and is interrupted by Bethany. Bethany wants Rebecca to not play dangerously, but Rebecca calls Bethany a hypocrite and that she cannot force her away from Linda and reminds her, she knows he secrets, that she confidently shared in Season Sevens 'Game Of Secrets,' and what she discovered so far in the final season.' Charlotte overhears the two women's altercations.

 Rebecca rushes to Linda's home to check on her, before she heads home. Rebecca notices there is a patrol car outside the house and there are no lights on. Rebecca suspects something is wrong and puts on her blacks gloves before entering Linda's house. Rebecca is horrified to find two dead police officers on the ground, with a Machete in the hands of Linda Perry.
 'Linda, what have you done?' Rebecca gasps.
 'I didn't do it, I swear,' Linda cries.
 'We have to get you out of here....... Now.' Rebecca shivers.

It's three days, since Linda Perry disappeared from Francis Bay and law enforcers and FBI are quickly into their search, as is Harry. Rebecca has yet to be suspected of concealing the evidence of the murders, that Linda had committed over the weeks and Bethany gratefully stands by Rebecca, promising, she has her back and won't reveal anything to implicate her. Bethany tells Rebecca, it was brave to let her go in the end, and a good job that Bethany showed up when she did, otherwise it could have been curtains. Rebecca suspects, that Linda will be back, but she insists she will always love Linda no matter what. Bethany asks Rebecca, where she buried the bodies of the missing locals? Rebecca informs her step mother, that the people that Linda had killed, were possibly not those of the local harbour master and the missing girl, but somebody else and believes that there is another killer within the vicinity of Long Island. Bethany laughs this off and encourages Rebecca not to bank on it and to expect Linda to be executed, when found, considering she is a vampire. If Linda does return, she will only come back for Rebecca and get her revenge on Bethany and possibly reveal secrets. Rebecca states that Linda is a different kind of vampire, when exposed to the sun, Linda metamorphis'es, and since she had misplaced the Cosmos necklace, the day, Rebecca had her removed from the bay, avoiding multiple changes, is at a minimal. When Rebecca goes to freshen up, before heading to work.

 Later, Rebecca confronts Benjamin and asks him, how he came by to suspect Linda Perry? Benjamin suggests, she seemed like an outcast to the town and had always had her face hidden and considered her a dark and secretive person, although Francis Bay knew her as Susan Brown.

 Charlotte and Bethany share a coffee, and Charlotte asks Bethany if Harry is aware of her time in the mental institution. Bethany admits, that Harry is not and asks Charlotte not to mention it, as Harry could be quite a sensitive person.
 'Sensitive?' Charlotte laughs. 'You're talking to an expert on sensitive.'
 'Losing a son, isn't easy to get over,' Bethany says. 'Deloris and Dominic know how you feel and so do I.'
 'You were raped by a cop and you had his child Beth, then you gave him up,' Charlotte adds. 'Mine, died in a fire and I've spent most of those days, wishing it were me, instead of James.'
 'Ben was still my son,' Bethany points out. 'He didn't ask to be brought into the world, the way he did. I think about him sometimes.'
 'So you haven't found him yet?' Charlotte queries.
 Bethany looks to Charlotte and takes seconds to answer. 'No, no, not yet. If I do decide to find him, I may have to seek advice form Harry. He has a son too, from a previous relationship.'
 'God, knows what I'd do, if I didn't have Deloris and Dominic,' Charlotte sighs. 'I'd probably be already dead.'
 'Harry and Rebecca have been the best, since I came into their lives. Rebecca has been like a daughter to me.'
 'Must have been hard stepping into another woman's shoes, after Harry lost his first wife last year on that awful day,' Charlotte wonders.
 'I sometimes feared living in the shadow Tina,' Bethany informs. 'But, I know he loves me, like I love him.'
 'Were you and Dominic close in High School?' Charlotte queries. 'Dominic did have a crush on you after all.'
 'Not really,' Bethany claims. 'We exchanged words now and again.'
 'I know I keep saying this, but it's weird that you are now living in the same town as the woman you shared a psychiatric ward with, who is married to the man, that was in love with you at high school.'
 'Yeah, weird.'
 Bethany stands up and strolls to the kitchen, while Charlotte glares at her, thinking that there is more to Bethany than meets the eye.

 Harry looks at the wanted photo fit of Linda Perry and thinks he's seen her somewhere before. Dominic never suspected a pretty mysterious girl behind the brutal killings, as Rebecca earwigs their conversation. Harry asks how Charlotte is doing? Dominic says that she is recovering well again and has no relapses, since Linda Perry did a disappearing act.

 Benjamin gets a shiver down his spine, when Chris and Emma arrive for the weekend. He manages to conceal his sexual attraction to Chris from Deloris. Later in the sunset, Emma spots Rebecca on top of the lighthouse and she surprises her and catches Rebecca crying. Rebecca swears she had nothing to do with Eric Lance discovering their affair, but Emma makes it aware that she and Emma, were the only ones aware of their moments of passion. Rebecca confesses, that in confidence she told Bethany and that's the truth. Emma informs Rebecca, that Lance is blackmailing them in a conspiracy and it's put Elaina in a bad position and assures Rebecca, that she will take care of whatever matter, Eric is involved in and will keep, that Chris doesn't need to know. Just a few feet away, the other side of the lighthouse, Benjamin has heard everything.

 Benjamin asks Chris, if he'd like to go fishing at the weekend?

 

Harry, Chris, Dominic and Benjamin head to a local bar, where Harry reminds Chris and Benjamin, that he and Dominic were in the same class at High School and remember the wild and slutty Mason Twins, Felicity and Fallon.


Tuesday 28th November 1978, Hex-Ville High School, Upstate New York.

 Felicity Mason, (L. Vandervoort) and her twin sister, Fallon, (E. Bell) begin taunting Harry's football team, but flirt with Harry. Harry's team doesn't seem to be doing so well, despite the support of Mary and Jonathan. Jeff and Hank watch from afar, as does Audrey who is watching Greg. Tina is cheerleader and Hank whistles to Tina. Bethany watches on. Otto comes beside Audrey outside the fencing, insisting that Audrey isn't happy with Billy and that she should leave him. Audrey is adamant their night of passion meant nothing and reminds Otto, that he also is a married man. Otto argues that Billy is abusive and is a crook of a lawyer. Audrey counters suggesting, Otto should find better clients to defend in a court of law. Dominic is verbally abused during the football game and the opposing team ended of thrashing 'Hexville Bears,' 54-6. Harry and Greg feel embarrassed, as Greg has struggled with bruising and Dominic is humiliated by how crap he is. Jeff and Hank does his utmost not to laugh. Hank and Jeff spot Carla walking down the street in a skimpy skirt and she blatantly flashes her breasts, much to the disgust of Bethany. The rest of the football team finish up in the showers, leaving Dominic on his own. The mason twins sneak into the male locker room and break into Dominic's locker and steal his clothes. Wet and naked, Dominic sneaks into an empty corridor with a towel wrapped around his waist and is startled by the head teacher Mrs Robinson, who wonders why Dominic is running through the school half naked?
 'Have you ever considered a little Discretion Mr King?' Mrs Robinson says.
 'Is that with my clothes stolen, or not?' Dominic sarcastically replies.
 'To my office, now,' Mrs Robinson orders.
 'But, Mrs Robinson......'

 'Now, please,' Mrs Robinson orders.
 'Oh, Christ,' Dominic gasps.
 'And don't get the floor wet.'
 As Dominic heads up to Mrs Robinsons office, Felicity and Fallon hurry there before Dominic gets there, cut her phone cable and steal the office key. Dominic enters and sits down, as Mrs Robinson follows in.
 'I'll call home for you and get your mother to fetch you some clothes,' Mrs Robinson informs.
 The Mason twins then lock Dominic and Mrs Robinson in her office and make a run for it. And since it's after school and everyone has left, plus the phone line being cut, there are no calls for help. It doesn't take long for Mrs Robinson to start undressing her self and begin seducing Dominic. The Mason twins listen in.

Billy has an altercation with Marilyn, who slates him for being a sorry excuse for a man and that the best thing she did, was cut ties with him altogether. Billy throws her $10, to buy herself a bottle of vodka and she purposely splashes Billy with a hosepipe. Bethany hurries to calm her mother down and Albert Kray interrupts, while on duty. Billy demands he place her under arrest for assault. Kray suggests that Marilyn was provoked. Billy threats to bring Kray down, as well as the Wilsons and Otto Cole to expose their conspiracy. Bethany thanks Albert for his kind gesture and she helps her mother into the house.
 'After that, I'm sure you took up my previous advice,' Marilyn bluntly says.
 Bethany looks to her mother, knowing what she means.

 Jeff and Hank wait at a secluded garage and Albert Kray arrives in his out of work clothes, in which he is presented with stolen cars.
 'Lets get these babies, spray painted and number plated. Once again, you've earned your cause,' Kray grins.

 Next Morning, Dominic is ashamed by his sexual encounter with Mrs Robinson, who insists they forget about what happened. Dominic enters class and finds "Dominic f***** the head teacher," written on the chalk board and everybody laughs at him. Harry is too shocked to respond and Dominic runs off in tears. After school, Hank picks up Tina in a stolen car, which has been disguised and takes her for a ride. Bethany then interrupts Harry and asks if he'd like to go for a milk shake? Harry accepts. Bethany queries if Harry has a date for the high school Christmas dance? Harry surprises Bethany by accepting her invitation and Bethany gets butterflies in her stomach and Carla cannot believe her ears, when Bethany informs her of her date.

 Albert Kray meets with Otto and pays him off to keep his mouth shut.

 Tina is seen making out with Hank and the whole thing is witnessed by the Mason Twins, who are quick to inform Billy and Audrey, who are left seething. Bethany is upset by what they have done, as this could break Hank and Tina up and fears Tina will end up with Harry.


Sunday 6th October 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany walks near the light house and spots Benjamin and Chris returning from fishing. She takes a deep breath and they pull up in the estuary and doesn't notice anything uncomfortable between the two men. Chris holds up the fish they caught and he teases Emma. Emma pulls Bethany aside.
 'I've had this playing on my mind all weekend,' Emma begins. 'I know you're aware of mine and Rebecca's once....you know.'
 'Water under the bridge,' Bethany insists. 'You're happy, Rebecca's happy, that's all that matters.'
 'Is anybody else aware of the affair, do you know if anybody else has spoken?' Emma queries.
 'Not unless, Rebecca has gone a stretch too far, why?' Bethany wonders.
 'Nothing, it's past that's the main thing,' Emma figures.

 Benjamin tells Chris he enjoyed his company and gives him a hug and Chris's body begins to shake. Charlotte witnesses this from a distance and becomes suspicious of the way Benjamin is embracing Chris.

 Emma and Chris return to New York City, not before Emma tells Rebecca, she doesn't know what to believe and insists on giving their friendship some breathing space and allowing to let each other, live their lives.

 Harry receives an emergency phone call. Linda Perry has been sighted and Bethany assures Rebecca she will keep her out of the situation. But, will Rebecca let her?

Halloween, Thursday October 31st 2002

"Stand By Me" by Ben E King Plays into the opening scene, with the moon rising above Francis Bay and the Wilson Household, as the lighthouse spotlight, scours the night.

It's over three weeks since Linda Perry was last sighted. Rebecca gazes out of her bedroom window, grasping onto a photo booth of her and Linda together. Despite, Linda be a wanted murderer, it doesn't change how Rebecca feels.

'When the night has come, And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
 No I won't be afraid, No I won't be afraid
 Just as Long as you stand by me, Stand by me'

Linda is seen staggering through a woodland, in just a cloak on her way, back to Francis Bay. It's seems she's not escaping for good, without Rebecca, even if it means getting through Bethany to retrieve her. Her anxious tears make her even more determined.

Oh stand by me, stand by me, Stand by me'

New York City. Emma dressed in her witches costume looks out of hers and Chris's apartment bedroom window and looks out to the Hudson and the moon beams down on the statue of Liberty. Chris teases her by pretending to bite her on the neck, dressed as Dracula.

'If the sky that we look upon, should tumble and fall
All the mountains should crumble to the sea

 Francis Bay, Long Island, Charlotte lights a candle for her son James, who always went crazy for Halloween. Dominic comforts her knowing she is pay respects to her son. Benjamin is dressed as Hell Raiser and Deloris is dressed as a Goth, as Benjamin sets the scene for their own personal Halloween on his boat.

 Bethany lays a pumpkin across the table, as Rebecca slowly walks down the stair case with Linda in her thoughts and vice versa for Linda.

'So Darling, darling, Stand by Me, oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me

Harry calls home and tells Bethany he has to work late and insists that herself and Bethany will have to attend the Kings Party at the Cafeteria on their own. Harry states there's been another sighting on Linda Perry, but it seems she has a knack on avoiding capture. Although sounding disappointed, Bethany is happy to be alone with her step daughter and keep an eye on her.
 'I'm not twelve years old, I'm twenty two,' Rebecca moans.
 'Linda Perry is still out there and I love you too much to risk your safety,' Bethany claims, placing her hand beside Rebecca's face.
 'You know, Linda may feel the same, the way you say you feel,' Rebecca replies. 'She doesn't trust you either.'
 'Do you?' Bethany queries.
 'To be honest I don't know,' Rebecca shrugs.
 'You do love me, don't you?' Bethany wonders.
 'I guess, as long as you stay honest to this happy family we've supposed to have created,' Rebecca encourages.
 'Can I ask you something, if we're supposed to be honest?' Bethany begins. 'Do you love.........your Daddy?'
 'Yes I do. If he ever found out the truth about me, I'm scared I'd lose his love forever,' Rebecca answers, nearing tears.
 'You won't lose mine,' Bethany promises, kissing Rebecca on the forehead.
 Bethany is about to place a passionate kiss on Rebecca's lips, when there is a knock on the kitchen door, which makes them jump out of their skins. It's Charlotte, who seems happier than her usual self.
 'What are you two doing, standing in the dark?' Charlotte giggles. 'Let's this party started.'
 Bethany and Rebecca follow, Charlotte back into town, as Linda watches from a distance, who evades being seen by a patrol car.

 

New York City, New York Times, Halloween Party, Abraham and Elaina, leave Andy with the baby sitter, Sasha, who seems to be concealing a recent drug addiction. Abraham and Elaina head to the 'New York Times' Halloween party and are joined by Chris and Emma. Emma asks if she and Elaina are still friends? Elaina says, as long as she doesn't take responsibility for allowing Eric to kill somebody else, just because of Emma and Rebecca's dirty secret.

 Andy starts playing his mini computer game, and Sasha starts shaking uncontrollably.

Francis Bay, Long Island, Kings Cafeteria, the locals join in on the Halloween occasion, as do Rebecca and Bethany, who have come without Harry, on duty, due to the fact Linda Perry has been sighted. Charlotte looks at her watch and wonders where Deloris has got to. Dominic assures his worrying wife, that Benjamin is taking care of her.
 'Or taking advantage of her,' Charlotte groans.
 'That's none of our business,' Dominic replies.
 'Have you noticed anything different about him?' Charlotte queries.
 'Who Benjamin?' Dominic second guesses. 'Not really.'
 'Deloris said, he and Harry's nephew, Christopher had become close,' Charlotte states. 'He talks to him a lot on the phone and calls him pet names. Deloris thinks it's funny.'
 'Charlotte, have you ever heard of sense of humour?' Dominic chuckles.
 'You never know. I told you before and told Deloris, I don't want him leading her on,' Charlotte warns.
 'You can't wrap Deloris up in cotton wool forever darling,' Dominic insists. 'She's her own person. She knows you care. We both do. Now, is there anything else, you are worried about, before I tend to the guests?'
 Charlotte turns and spots Bethany mingling within the crowd. Charlotte seems to not trust her former psychiatric ward associate.

 Harry receives word, that the missing local harbour master has been found, bludgeoned to death in Peconic River around 36 miles west of Francis Bay. There is no doubt in Harry's mind, who could be behind the killing.

 Linda Perry in a large dark cloak, glances round a dark alleyway, as trick or treaters walk on by. It appears Linda is become unstable and weak. Her finger nails are almost like claws and her teeth are nearing to fangs. As long as she stays in a darker place, her monstrous side, won't escape her. Linda is on thin edge. Since she was discovered, even being out of the suns glaring raze, has made her mentally traumatized and physically uncontrollable. Losing the Cosmos necklace, plus parting with Rebecca, cannot withhold the process of the vampire inside her. Finding the necklace, may help her find sanity for the time being. Finding and Convincing Rebecca to help her, before dawn, will be another task.

 Benjamin tells Deloris, they should get to the party. Deloris wonders if Benjamin really does love her, but Benjamin assures her that everything is perfect and points out, that her mother will be worrying about her. Deloris agrees and the two head to the party.

 Back in Manhattan, Andy continues to play with his game and this drives Sasha insane. Sasha demands that Andy stop playing his game and he ignores her, which infuriates her and she flips out and takes the game off Andy and smashes it against the wall.
 'Why are you purposely trying to piss me off you little Bastard?!' Sasha screams, throwing a plant pot against the wall. 'Look there, see what you made me do!'
 Andy falls to the floor sweating, fearing for his safety.
 'Why are you being nasty to me?' Andy cries.
 'Because I'm fed up, with being made a fool of!' Sasha screeches.
 'I'm sorry,' Andy panics.
 'Sorry?' That makes everything OK doesn't it?' Sasha seethes. 'Well, not anymore.'
 Andy realizes that Sasha has become unstable and he makes a run for it, to his Mom and Dad's bedroom, as she runs after him. Andy traps her fingers in the door, as he desperately defends himself. What has abruptly made Sasha go insane? Sasha pulls back and Andy slams the door shut and locks it from the inside. Suddenly, there is a loud kick at the door and Sasha screaming threats.
 'You can't hide in there forever Andy,' Sasha shouts.
 Andy runs to his Mom and Dads window and pulls up the shutter. He looks down at the fifty foot drop, but doesn't have time to consider his options and he manoeuvers himself along the ledge to the steps, that lead to the side of the alleyway. Andy runs as fast as he can, and he reaches ground level, but he's cornered by his mentally disturbed babysitter.
 'It's the end of the road kid,' Sasha laughs.
 Andy tries to run again, but trips over. Sasha makes her way towards him, when suddenly, Eric Lance appears from nowhere and karate kicks Sasha in the face, which snaps her neck backwards kills her instantly. Andy runs to Eric and hugs him. Eric assures Andy, he will be safe from now on.

King Cafeteria, Francis Bay, Dominic offers Bethany a dance, which she accepts. Bethany reminds Dominic, that Charlotte could get paranoid. Dominic says, the only way that will happen, is if they act suspiciously. Rebecca fills her glass up with punch and as she looks out of the window, she spots a teenager, wearing the missing Cosmos, walking in the direction of the local church.

Francis Bay, Long Island. With Bethany distracted, Rebecca exits the Cafeteria to pursue the teenager wearing the Cosmos necklace, that was once worn by Linda. Rebecca is interrupted by Benjamin and Deloris, who are going to join the Halloween party. Deloris asks where Rebecca is off to in such a hurry? Rebecca claims she is off to the local police station to see if her father, Harry is intending to work longer, than expected. Deloris insists, she doesn't take too long. Rebecca turns round, to find the teenager has gone from view. Linda Perry shakes profusely, as her anxiety begins to worsen and when she spots the teenager wearing the Cosmos necklace, she seems intent on getting it anyway she can and purposely steps in front of her, to prevent her from going any further.
 'That's a nice necklace,' Linda states. 'Where'd you get it young lady?'
 'What's it to you?' the loud mouth teenager replies.
 'To me everything,' Linda whispers. 'My sanity and my survival is relying on that power source you wear. I require it. Please hand it over.'
 The girl raises her eyebrows and steps back one pace, as Linda becomes desperate.
 'GIVE IT TO ME!!' Linda screams, showing her fangs.
 The girl screams as she starts to run. Linda grabs the girl by the scruff of the neck and throws her into some garbage cans. Before Linda can continue her vicious attack, Rebecca calls out to her.
 'No!'
 Linda turns and is drawn to the love of her life. The one person who vowed to stand by her no matter what, but Bethany's presence, pulled her back and Linda was left to fight her demons on her own. Linda never blamed Rebecca and this is her last chance. Rebecca rushes to Linda's side, as Linda is in her partial Vampire state.
 'Please help me,' Linda begs.
 Rebecca turns and looks down to the girl and offer her $100 for the necklace, as an apology. The girl accepts and hands the necklace to Linda and takes the money before making a run for it.......to the police station. Linda puts the necklace on and Rebecca suggests they head on into the church.
 Linda is scared.
 'Don't worry, it's dark in there,' Rebecca informs Linda. 'And stop worrying about, not being sacred and Halo. The necklace has your dark side in check.'

 The frightened teenaged girl rushes to FBPD, and confronts Harry and informs her, that a lady attacked in the street and she was a vampire. The other officers laugh, but Harry gives her the chance to speak. The girl describes Linda Perry and points out that another girl was there to help her and offered her money to for the necklace and to keep quiet. Police units are scrambled immediately.

 Bethany corners Dominic in the back kitchen of the cafeteria.
 'Are you still nervous?' Bethany begins.
 'I think after three months, since you moved here, I've handled things quite well, considering.'
 'Considering, Jeff's death is down to us,' Bethany confesses.
 'It was your decision sweetheart, but that was my last favour for both you and your wanted sister,' Dominic insists.
 'Neither you, nor I, had blood on our hands, but we both know who did,' Bethany explains.
 'I wanna live an honest life from now on Beth,' Dominic says. 'I have a wife and a daughter. The past has become too painful. I pray to God, Carla doesn't show up to cause any interference and decide to bring up any needless revelations.'
 'The only problem we have, is that missing disk, that Jeff had snuck into the U.S, before his death. Somebody has it. But, who?'
 'I seriously doubt anybody could use it, unless it's accepted by a system of quality that the Cosmos society had. Most of the operatives are dead, in jail or on the run and yet, who else would have known Jeff had faked his death the first time, instead of us and the Jamaican fishermen, before his murder? Certainly not the pirates, that murdered the Tarns in Mexico.'
 'As long as we keep Harry in the dark from now on and tread carefully, we should make this next year out fine and we can thankfully live an HONEST life from now on.'
 'I gather Harry, is unaware of your time in Mental Institution with Charlotte?' Dominic queries.
 'Of course,' Bethany nods. 'Although, I am a little worried your paranoid wife, may spill the beans in due course. She nearly caught me and Rebecca kissi.......'
 'Well, well, well. Do I sense some kinky going on's in the Wilson household?' Dominic sniggers. 'It seems our occasional f*** nights of the past, were just the beginning of your bizarre antics?'
 'Between you and me, she is aware of my connection to the Cosmos,' Bethany whispers.
 'How?' Dominic asks.
 'It's a long story.'
 From the other side of the counter, Charlotte is watching Bethany and Dominic in conversation, but cannot hear what they're saying.

Rebecca and Linda sit in the front row seats, contemplating their future. Rebecca insists she wanted to be with Linda, but Bethany would never had let her go. Linda threats that if Bethany attempts to force Rebecca away from her, she will kill her and has the power to do it. Linda begs Rebecca to run away with her and write a letter to Harry, explaining who he truly is married to and what Bethany is really like. Bethany suggests, that Linda doesn't love her, but Linda assures Rebecca, that she is the reason she is back in the Bay. Linda takes a few steps forward towards the virgin Mary and says a prayer.

 At the Cafeteria, Bethany wonders where Rebecca has got to. She approaches Benjamin and Deloris.
 'Have you guys, seen Rebecca by any chance?'
 'She went out a while ago, she said she was going to the police station to see her father,' Deloris states.
 Bethany doesn't feel comfortable and exits the party and heads in the direction of the church.


New York City, New York Times, Halloween Party. Elaina and Abraham receive word that Eric Lance had saved Andy from his abusive baby sitter and that Sasha is dead. Emma and Elaina look at each other and wonder, what Eric's intensions are.

 

 

Francis Bay, Long Island, Bethany is walking in the direction of the church, when she spots Harry in his patrol car. Bethany asks if Rebecca has been to see him? Harry thought she was at the Halloween party with Bethany and this sounds alarm bells ringing in Bethany's head, with Harry unaware his daughter is in love with a woman who has a split personality of a Vampire. Harry informs Bethany, that Linda Perry could be a Meta Human, that escaped from the Cosmos years ago, as the girl who was attacked by Linda Perry, told Harry, she wanted the necklace she discovered, because it could save her life and keep her sane. Harry demands that Bethany head back to the party, while he searches for Rebecca. Harry drives off and Bethany looks up at the spire of the church.

 Linda assures Rebecca she will keep a low profile, while she gets her things together. Rebecca tells Linda, she couldn't have murdered the missing fisherman and suspects there is another killer in the Bay area, but it may difficult to prove, as Linda had fingerprints on the Machete, that supposedly killed the two cops. Rebecca and Linda share a passionate kiss, as Rebecca makes herself scarce. Rebecca exits the church and Linda sits alone and gives herself the sign of the cross. Rebecca hurries a mile down the road on foot, towards the Wilson home and manages to avoid being seen by patrol cars. Linda kisses the necklace of the Cosmos and is about to leave the church through a side door, where Bethany stands in her way.
 'Look who it is,' Linda whispers. 'Rebecca's ever loving stepmother.'
 'It would have been easier for you to just let go,' Bethany suggests.
 'To make it easier for you and your dirty secrets?' Linda sarcastically replies.
 'Rebecca not here then?' Bethany wonders.
 'You already know the answer to that question,' Linda grunts. 'If you think you can stop me, then you have a three second memory on reality, sweetheart.'
 'What are you implying?' Bethany queries.
 Linda then blatantly removes the necklace from around her neck and places it in her cloak pocket. Where she starts shaking uncontrollable. Bethany backs away slowly as Linda turns into the candle light glare, as she slowly begins to metamorphosis.
 'You didn't get my first message,' Linda growls.
 Bethany pulls a gun from her purse and before Bethany can fire, Linda grabs her by the neck and throws her threw the church window. Bethany staggers to her feet with difficulty, as Linda paces towards her. Bethany trips over a stone and knocks herself out.
 'Time to die, bitch,' Linda snarls.
 Linda kneels over Bethany and is about to bite on her flesh, when a patrol officer shines his spotlight on her and this pains her and Linda's body starts to feel a burning sensation. He voice becomes deep, her fangs grow larger and her nails grow thicker and thicker. Her face turns pale and her skin starts to wrinkle slightly. Her eyes become wider and frightful. The officer notices Bethany unconscious and as he approaches Linda he opens fire, hitting Linda in the shoulder blade. Linda launches herself at the officer and punches him threw the air and he comes crashing down on his patrol car and the wind shield. Ignoring the police threat, she turns around and finds Bethany has done a disappearing act. Linda launches herself into the air and flies into the full moon night.

 Rebecca arrives home and rushes to her bedroom and grabs her suitcase. She starts throwing clothes in and certain cosmetics. Rebecca hurries to the bathroom and switches on the bathroom light and finds Linda, throwing up blood down the toilet.
 'Turn off the light, turn off the goddam light!!' Linda screeches.
 Without hesitation, Rebecca does, but wonders why Linda hadn't gone her separate way, until Rebecca met up with her?
 'Your bitch of a step mother found me in the church,' Linda informs. 'She wasn't gonna let me go quietly.'
 'What have you done Linda?' Rebecca worries.
 'Relax. Unfortunately, the bitch is still alive. Don't know about that cop though,' Linda replies.
 'You deliberately metamorphosed?' Rebecca gasps.
 'She gave me no choice,' Linda claims.
 'You should have ran,' Rebecca said.
 'I love you Rebecca,' Linda cries. 'I'm scared.'
 Rebecca notices the gun wound on Linda's shoulder.
 'You're hurt,' Rebecca panics.
 'I know......I feel like I'm dying. I never wanted this Rebecca. Before, I met you, I was so lonely. I don't wanna die lonely,' Linda sobs.
 Rebecca cries too and the two women comfort each other.

 Back in town, horrified Halloween party goers are shocked by the discovery of the unconscious police officer. Local authorities demand town folk return home and if some are still at parties to lock inner doors.
 'Jesus Christ, this town is getting really f***** up,' Deloris sighs.
 Deloris gets concerned, when Benjamin does a disappearing act.

 Rebecca is concerned that Linda has thrown up blood, which means Linda hasn't eaten properly and Rebecca starts cleaning up the blood in the bedroom. She also draw the curtains, as the lighthouse spotlight irritates Linda.
 'You can't stay here,' Rebecca whispers.
 'Where else am I supposed to go?' Linda shivers. 'I'm a walking time bomb, ready for her next meal.'
 'Get in the attic, I'll fix you something to eat, then we'll consider our next move,' Rebecca insists. Linda in placed in the attic, with a blanket and Rebecca rushes down stairs and makes herself and Linda a sandwich, when an injured Bethany surprises her and she drops the plate.
 'Eating for two?' Bethany questions.
 'I'm just hungry,' Rebecca answers.
 'You left the party to come home and make a f***** sandwich,' Bethany sarcastically laughs.
 'Why aren't you back at the King's party?' Rebecca asks.
 'Maybe it's because, I'm concerned that my dear little step daughter may end up being eaten by her man eating girlfriend, like I nearly was,' Bethany explains.
 'I haven't seen Linda,' Rebecca shakes.
 'No shit?' If you think I'm gonna let you hide her, you've got another thing coming,' Bethany warns. 'The police and your.......Daddy will come knocking soon and either way, she ain't leaving this town alive.'
 'If I were you, I'd walk away right now, considering you were lucky the first time.'
 'No chance. And you know why?'
 'Because you love me? Do you know what the word means?'
 'How about I show you.'
 Bethany starts kissing Rebecca intimately and moving her hands across her body, when she discovers blood stains on her neck. Pretending not to notice, Bethany pretends she is going to freshen up.

 Harry rushes to the King's coffee shop and asks if Bethany and Rebecca have returned? The King's say no and Harry decides to return home.

 Back in Manhattan, Andy is sedated following his shock attack by Sasha. Abraham praises Eric Lance for saving his son, but Elaina suspects Eric has a motive. Chris also thinks the same, but Emma suggests they give space, before they act. Emma is worried that in time, Chris will discover her one night stand with Rebecca.

 

Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany heads into the bathroom and takes off her blouse, which reveals bruising and grazes and starts to run a bath. Rebecca slowly makes her way up the staircase with another plated sandwich and a glass of milk and looks to the attic, where Linda is hiding. Knowing Bethany has the faucet running full blast and making sure, the coast is clear, Rebecca cautiously opens the attic door and hoists herself up inside. Linda sits profusely shaking, with her back to the partial light from the hallway. Rebecca sits beside her and hands her some food. Rebecca realizes that Linda isn't in the right condition and fears that if she transforms again, she may not return to her normal self, as her metamorphosis has been occurring frequently, since Linda has been without the Cosmos necklace for a number of weeks, since being made a fugitive. Linda tells Rebecca, that she feels safe and sane, when she is with her, but being exposed for long periods to light, in the number of weeks missing and being without the love and comfort of Rebecca, has made containing her darkness more difficult and that next time, she may never be human again and personally asks Rebecca that if it were to be the case, that she end her life? Rebecca refuses, as she wants to find a cure for Linda.
 'Do you think Bethany would know if there is one?' Rebecca whispers.
 'Even being an agent in that scandalous society, I was never aware of any cure on Meta Humans. Bethany seemed to have a bigger connection to the Cosmos, than myself, except when it came to tracking down those with abilities and experimenting on them,' Linda explains. 'But, I'm not sure how much the further superiors wanted to share with each other, not all of them trusted one another, considering they were scamming the government. I only joined to put food on the table and have a stable life............and look at me now.'
 'You can be normal again,' Rebecca assures her. 'And then we can spend the rest of our lives together.'
 'That's if I don't end up on death row,' Linda sighs. 'Any way, if you can, make your query with your........wait a minute, what perfume is that I smell on you?'
 'Oh, it's just one of many cosmetics I use,' Rebecca claims.
 Linda senses something is not right and makes her uncomfortable.
 'That's not your lipstick, your wearing,' Linda suspects. 'I've smelt that before. Like this evening, in the church. It's Bethany's.'
 'Linda......'
 'You bitch,' Linda cries. 'You and her, have been doing it behind my back.......you've played me.'
 'No, way, she's been manipulating me, because we both know each others secrets and I have to play along,' Rebecca begs.
 'Bullshit, your Master plan to corner me has failed. You never loved me, you're in love with that bitch.'
 'No, I love you.' Rebecca begs.
 'How could I have been so stupid? It explains why you left me alone, to fend for myself, to try and maintain the beast within self, without your supposed compassion.....'
 'You still got that,' Rebecca sobs.
 'Yeah, when you and your MILF are not screwing one another,' Linda crudely replies. 'If only your Dad...........Harry could see you right now. You both have made an idiot out of him for over year, just like you made a fool out me, these last few months. Well, it ends tonight.'
 'You're gonna kill me?' Rebecca panics.
 'After what I've just learnt, I kinda feel sick to sink my teeth into your lovers sense stained on your neck. Now get out of my way.'
 'Please don't do this, you could get yourself killed.'
 'Oh you don't have to worry about me, just worry about your guilty conscious,' Linda adds.
 'I do love you,' Rebecca insists.
 'Did you tell Emma that a lot?' Linda blurts. 'Three words, that are so easy to say, yet it doesn't stop betrayal. It's kind of a hard skill that isn't it, Love?'
 'Kill me,' Rebecca demands. 'I don't want a guilty conscious.
 'Move,' Linda orders.
 'No, I want you to. Do it,' Rebecca provokes, pushing Linda. 'C'mon if this is what it takes to prove you don't love me anymore, then have done with it. C'mon you ugly bitch, I'm sure one distasteful bite won't make a difference. Come on do it! Cmon over with!!'
 Linda grabs Rebecca and shoves her through the attic door, as Rebecca yanks the Cosmos necklace off Linda's neck. Rebecca falls over the bannister onto the living room table and Rebecca is knocked unconscious. Linda is horrified by her actions and she screams out, as she metamorphosis into full vampire form. Linda jumps over stairs and onto ground level and hovers over Rebecca and smells her sense, stroking her hair. Bethany surprises Linda by trying to strangle her with a wire, but Linda's strength and power see's her throw Bethany into the downstairs closet. Linda is about to bite on Rebecca again, when Harry returns and draws his gun and shoots Linda in the back, twice. Linda staggers to her feet and approaches Harry, as he fires again, catching her in the chest. Linda grabs him by the arm and launches him, through the front room window. Not knocked unconscious, Harry barely calls for back up, as Linda is unable to rocket herself into the sky, due to her gunshot wounds. Linda makes her way into the lighthouse, next to Benjamin cabin home. She ascends the staircase and falls to the floor. For a few moments of catching her breath, her strength and vampire power, bring restoration and even in the darkness, below the spotlight of the lighthouse, normality seems beyond her reach and is forever a vampire by day or night. The Cosmos necklace cannot save her this time, due to her heartbreak in discovering what Rebecca and Bethany have been doing behind her back, when she needed Rebecca the most. Now, it's kill or be killed in the eyes of Linda Perry as she rises to her feet. The sound of police sirens can be heard approaching the Wilsons. Approaching her from behind, is an obscured figure, grasping a hot machete. The figure seems to be a female, as the camera stays focused on the high healed boots of the human figure approaching Linda. Linda senses the threat and turns, just as the boiling hot machete is plowed into her gut. It seems this shadow is wearing a cloak and is blonde, face is not shown. The burning pain appears to be the fatal blow, that Linda feared. The perpetrator pulls out the weapon from her gut, as Linda's body feels like fire and blood pours from her mouth. Linda's vision becomes blurry and she staggers onto the outer ledge of the lighthouse and falls over edge and into the estuary, just as several police cars arrive and attend the injured Wilsons.

 Sunrise, Rebecca awaits news on Linda. She is currently missing and she leaves the hospital, without so much as notifying authorities or her family. Harry panics, when Rebecca does her disappearing act. An injured Bethany, suspects Rebecca has gone to find her lover. Rebecca rushes along the beach south of Francis Bay, crying out Linda's name and it's not long before she finds Linda's body washed up on shore. Cradling her body, Linda awakes momentarily and is restored to human form. Linda touches Rebecca faces and wipes tears away. Linda feels comforted that Rebecca was telling the truth. She was in love with Linda. Linda is brought to tears, when a brisk breeze brushes her hair in the warm sun.
 'Linda it's gonna be alright, we can be free now,' Rebecca cries.
 'Rebecca, my darling..... I am free.'
 Linda passes away in Rebecca's arms, leaving Rebecca devastated.

New York City, early morning. Abraham is horrified to discover that Sasha, had been a drug user and suffered with bipolar. He never thought, that she would intentionally attempt to bring harm to Andy, who is in bed sleeping off the shock from the previous evening. Even though, Eric took a life to save his and Elaina's son, he is thankful to Eric and tells Elaina, that he could be one of the best cops to grace the city. Abraham doesn't know Eric, like Elaina does and Eric pops over to make sure everyone is OK. Andy exits his room and is happy to see Eric. Andy asks for a glass of milk and Abraham takes him back for his knap, while Elaina fixes a glass of milk. Eric waits for Elaina to speak her mind.
 'Just who are you?' Elaina asks.
 'I thought you already knew the answer to that,' Eric replies.
 'You steal a priceless heirloom, you've probably murdered a link to your past, you blackmail me to conceal your secrets, because Emma fears her dirty secrets will come out and then all of a sudden you're playing the good guy and Abraham sees you as this saint, because you saved our son,' Elaina whispers.
 'Doesn't surprise me, you haven't thanked me for keeping your son safe,' Eric sighs.
 'You're manipulating the whole situation,' Elaina insists.
 'Nothing is stopping you from telling Chris the truth about his wife and the Wilson girl, just don't go mentioning the other things,' Eric adds.
 'I can't do that, because you're the master of manipulation and Emma is my friend,' Elaina informs.
 'And so is your reporter Chris,' Eric points out. 'Which is why, he isn't to open his mouth either.'
 'What is it, you're so afraid of?' Elaina queries.
 'Stop asking questions, Miss pretty. You don't want to play this dangerous, it could get complicated and very nasty. I've been left with no choice,' Eric tries to explain.
 'OK, but can I ask one more? How did you find out about Emma and Rebecca's affair?'
 'No comment.'

Francis Bay, Long Island. Harry is relieved when he finds Rebecca safe and sound, yet shaken and distraught. Harry informs Rebecca that Linda was found washed up on the beach, two miles outside Francis. She asks if he is sure, that Linda was be behind the harbour masters murder and the missing girls disappearance? The local authorities, the mayor and the FBI, plus himself conclude that she was. There are still two bodies unaccounted for, in which Rebecca had buried. Linda desperately denied murdering the two police officers in her home with a machete, before being a fugitive and Rebecca suspects, somebody else knew of her ability and set her up in some of the crimes. Bethany was aware of this, but who else? The unknown assailant who killed Linda in the Lighthouse maybe?

 Deloris meets up with Benjamin and asks him, why he did a disappearing act, during the town panic? He claims he wanted to make sure that both Bethany and Rebecca didn't head into trouble, as the Wilsons have been like a second family to him. Charlotte asks Dominic, what he and Bethany were talking about in the kitchen? Dominic says that discussed how great it was to be close to old friends in Harry and Bethany.

 Back in Manhattan, Elaina calls Emma to tell her, that Eric is hiding a bigger secret, than she thought and begs Emma not to allow Chris to pursue Eric anytime before Christmas at least. A news bulletin appears on CNN, about Linda Perry being named as a mass murderer.

Francis Bay, The Wilson Household, Bethany returns home and apologises to Rebecca for everything that happened and that from now on they should at least trust each other. Rebecca takes everything in crying. Bethany insists she loves Rebecca and will continue to conceal each others secrets, including that of Rebecca and Linda's love affair and Rebecca being aware of Linda's split personality. Bethany removes a photo of Rebecca and Linda together and burns it in the fire place. Harry returns home and tells his wife and daughter, that he has been given a few days off to spend time with them. Harry just doesn't know, what is right in front of him. A misunderstood daughter and a controversial wife. The camera pans away from the Wilsons home into the moonlit night, and moves to the outside of the lighthouse. The spotlight shadows a tall female like figure inside the lighthouse, moving clockwise. The camera moves to look East down the estuary, and out to the Atlantic Ocean.

Special Guest Star:
AMY ADAMS as Clara Barton

 

 

 

 September 2002, A Month And A Half Earlier.

Thirty six year old, Clara Barton begins her journey to find the daughter she was forced to give up at fourteen years old. Clara had named her Abigail. She begins her journey through the adoption agency to discover, her daughters adopted parents, The Smiths had died in a plane crash and Abigail was fostered out, several times, as at times she became out of control. She discovers Abigail's adopted name was Alicia. Clara is put in touch with the Turners from Minnesota and they agree to meet with her.

Clara meets with the Mr and Mrs Turner at their home in Minnesota and they inform her, that Alicia lived with them for a few years until her late teenage years, before running away after an argument. in the late 90's. Alicia was fostered again, due to the fact her foster mother committed suicide after her adopted daughter Rebecca fell to her death into a raging river, when she and Alicia were nine years old. Rebecca and Abigail were playing out at the time. Rebecca's body was never found. Alicia was traumatized by her foster sisters death, as they were so close and needed therapy, before being fostered again. For a while Alicia and the Turners were very much a family unit and she was quite happy in herself. Sometime later, Alicia suffered a relapse and began truanting from school, getting into fights and being disrespectful. The Turners realized it was a cry out for help, because of what happened to Rebecca. By the time she reached 18 years old, Alicia had ran off with a guy called Rick Henson and that was the last they had heard from her. Alicia queries if they know where Rick is? The Turners state that they are unaware of where he is. His mother also claims she hasn't seen him in years. Before she leaves, Clara is handed a picture of Alicia, at 12 years old.

Clara visits Ricks mother in jail several week later, who has been incarcerated for five years on a drugs bust. Clara asks if she is aware of Ricks status?
'What's it matter to you?' Ricks mother groans.
'He ran off with my daughter, Abig...I mean Alicia,' Clara informs. 'I gave her up when I was fourteen. I need to find her.'
'Sorry to say this, but they're not together anymore,' the woman claims. 'She ran off.'
'Do you know where?' Clara asks.
'Something about finding a place to be near her dead foster sister.'
'Do you have Ricks address?' Clara wonders. Ricks mother is hesitant, but Clara pleads with her to give her Ricks address and she longs to meet the daughter she was forced to give away. Ricks mother writes down his address. He lives in Miami, Florida.

One week later, Clara flies down to Florida and comes face to face with Alicia's ex boyfriend, now hood gangster. Rick explains, that he thought Alicia loved him, but she left him a note and took money. The note stated that, she needed to make peace with Rebecca and find a place of solace. Rick hands Clara a picture of Alicia at 19 years old. (her face is not shown to the audience). Clara is brought to tears and places her hand on the photo. Rick insists that Clara can keep the photo, as sooner or later he would have had to let go. It's taken him 2 years. Clara sits in a bar and looks to the TV screen and learns of the harrowing murders in Francis Bay, Long Island and that Linda Perry is wanted for mass murder. The next morning, Clara returns home to Colorado.

Sometime later, Clara gets in touch with the adopted father of the supposed deceased Rebecca, Alan Craig and asks if Alicia had been in touch? Alan admits to seeing Alicia, but turned her away, as he blamed her for Rebecca's fate and causing his wife to kill himself. Clara adds that Alicia needed to be close to Rebecca to find solace, as claimed by her ex boyfriend. Alan suggest the only other option would be, Rebecca's birth parents. Rebecca's birth mother named her Scarlett, when she was born in 1980.

Clara makes enquiries and discovers that nobody by the name of Alicia had been in contact with Rebecca's birth family, but a girl by the name of Rebecca Turner had identified herself as the birth daughter of Tina and Harry Wilson, who lived in New York City. Clara makes the trip to the Big Apple by early December and discovers Rebecca had worked at Bloomingdales and that Tina died in the September 11th attacks the previous year. They also give her the gory details of her uncle being a terrorist, faking his death and dying in the Caribbean. Asked where she is living now, they put her in touch with Emma and pretends to be her adopted Aunt. Emma is hesitant at first, but Clara guarantees Emma, she won't tell Rebecca who her informant is. Emma writes down Rebecca's address and only a week prior to Christmas, Clara heads 117 miles east to Francis Bay Long Island.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Clara heads into the Kings Cafeteria and orders a coffee. Deloris serves her, just as Charlotte and Dominic start a blazing argument in the kitchen. Benjamin arrives and apologizes for letting her down on their date, but something important had come up and intends to make it up with her. When Benjamin exits, Clara shows Deloris a picture of Alicia and pretends to be her adopted Aunt.
'Yeah she works here, but Rebecca is off today,' Deloris answers.
'Rebecca?' Clara second guesses.
'Yeah, that is her adopted name isn't it?' Deloris questions.
'I guess so,' Clara sighs. 'Do you know where in town she lives?'
'I'm not sure I'm the right person you should ask. From what she told me, she didn't part on good terms with her adopted family,' Deloris tells Clara.
'Oh, it's just I wanted it to be a surprise, I've come a long way.'
'There's a B and B just round the corner and you can come on by tomorrow and meet her yourself,' Deloris points out.
 'Thank you....'
'Deloris.' Deloris heads to the kitchen and Charlotte and Clara acknowledge each other and Clara calls her over. 'I wonder if you could help me?'

Early evening, Clara heads a mile and half north and stops a few yards form the Wilsons home. She spots Harry exiting the house, with Bethany by his side and heading to his patrol car.
'Don't go worrying yourself about Steven Whittaker,' Bethany insists. 'He is man on the run for murdering his brother and for shooting your brother, over six years ago. He may have been an old friend and colleague, but he's a lost cause. Let the bastard run.' 'Maybe you're right, it's time we got back to normal,' Harry agrees, kissing Bethany on the lips. 'I love you.'
'Bye,' Bethany waves, as Harry drives off to work. Bethany steps back into the house, as Clara exits her car and proceeds towards the house. She looks to her surroundings. Benjamin's cabin house and the lighthouse. Clara approaches the front door and knocks it. After a few moments, Rebecca answers the door. Clara is so emotional she cannot find her words.
'Can I help you?' Rebecca asks.

 Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville, Upstate, New York.

Harry and Bethany drive with Rebecca up Hex-Ville, for Harry and Bethany's High School reunion. It's been twenty four years, since both Harry and Bethany have set foot in a place that has so many memories. Not just the school, but the town. More bad than good and the summer of 79' was ultimately a devastating point for the Marital couple. Harry found his parents murdered and Bethany was raped, which resulted in a pregnancy. But, this isn't a time to relive bad times, it's about getting reacquainted with old friends. Rebecca on the other hand, had to be convinced by her step mother to join them on their journey, as a way to clear her mind from the trauma, which occurred over a month ago. Rebecca knows how manipulative Bethany can be and is extremely guilty and hurt by the way Linda was judged and by her death too. Rebecca loved her so much, but secrets are just too great to be let out and whoever killed Linda, did her a favour......for now. And Harry is yet to discover any of them. Dominic is also attending the reunion, with wife Charlotte and daughter Deloris . Eric Lance is also aware of this, but decides to distance himself from his hometown, due to his identity change. Even if he showed up as Hank Willis, he would definitely not receive a warm welcome, because of his criminal past.

 Driving into Hex-Ville, a shiver shoots down the spines of both Harry and Bethany. Even twenty four years on, things are too familiar.

 

Saturday 16th December 1978, Hex-Ville.

Jeff picks on Harry for taking Bethany to the High School Christmas dance. Harry reminds Jeff, that nobody complains when he and Hank use Carla as their own personal sex toy. Mary and Jonathan don't seem to have a problem with it, but Jeff suspects Harry may be doing it to grab Tina's attention.

Bethany is getting dressed up, when she receives a call from the police station. Marilyn has been arrested for disturbing the peace, being drunk and disorderly and for assaulting a police officer. Bethany begs Carla to collect their mother, but Carla refuses as she thinks life is too short to pick up the pieces for an alcoholic. Bethany worries that Harry may think she is standing him up, but is worried she will receive an ear ache from her mother.


 Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville Reunion.

The Wilsons and the Kings meet up outside the high school.
 'It feels just like yesterday, I was here,' Dominic says. 'Good job I didn't come in my school uniform.'
 'You mean it still fits you?' Rebecca ask.
 'No chance, that uniform would probably fit Tinker Bell by now,' Dominic jokes.
 'He's right, he takes King Kong Sized shoes now,' Harry teases.
 'Are you trying to say my husband is hairy?' Charlotte laughs.
 Harry takes a while to answer. Rebecca and Deloris manage to keep a straight face.
 'No comment,' Harry bluntly replies.
 Suddenly, Dominic's heart skips a beat, when he spots fifty seven year old head mistress, Mrs Robinson standing to the entrance of the school. The seduction in her office twenty four years earlier, makes him even more nervous.
 'You alright honey? You look like some vampire just had a maul at you,' Charlotte wonders.
 The Wilsons feel a nerve hit them, when Charlottes comment reminds them of Linda Perry's attack. Rebecca feels hurt by this and Charlotte is quick to apologise. Mrs Robinson recognises Dominic and she quickly approaches the two families.
 'Well, hello Dominic King,' Mrs Robinson smiles. 'Aren't you all grown up.'
 'Yeah, that's all thanks to me,' Charlotte interrupts. 'I mean look we have a daughter to show for it.'
 'Mom,' Deloris gasps.
 Rebecca is cheered up already and turns away giggling to herself.
 'Just kidding,' Charlotte insists.
 'Oh you're Dominic's wife,' Mrs Robinson replies. 'You are such a lucky woman.'
 'So were you once upon a time,' Bethany whispers to herself.
 After exchanging words, the Wilsons and the Kings head up to the entrance of the school and Mrs Robinson cheekily taps Dominic's ass. To Harry's surprise, Chris and Emma have showed up, so Chris can get an exclusive for the New York Times. Rebecca and Emma exchange smiles and Bethany roles her eyes.

 

 

The Wilsons and Kings head into the big hall inside the school, with up to another two hundred people in a gathering. A huge Christmas tree has just been erected in the centre of the hall and is yet to be lit up. Mrs Robinson whispers in Dominic's ear before making herself scarce. Rebecca pulls Emma aside and queries if there has been anymore problems involving Eric Lance back in the city? Emma informs Rebecca, he is very unpredictable and doesn't know what to make of him, but there is no hint of him being interested in exposing her and Rebecca's one night stand. Both girls cannot understand, how he came by to know of their passion. Emma is desperate for Chris, to never to find out. Emma asks Rebecca how she is recovering from the Linda Perry attack? Rebecca hesitates for a moment, then assures Emma she is slowly getting over it. Emma asks Rebecca if she'd like to go shopping with her prior to Christmas? Rebecca is warmed by Emma's gesture and accepts. Harry, Bethany and Dominic bump into old friends and exchange conversation. Suddenly, a familiar face catches Dominic's eye. Johnson, the one time school bully. He approaches Dominic and teases that he hasn't changed one bit. He brags that he's an executive for a car company and that all the women love him. He spots Bethany and suggests that he's surprised that Bethany and Dominic weren't the married couple, not her and Harry. Charlotte doesn't feel comfortable by Johnsons gesture.
 'You don't change much either,' Harry interrupts.
 'Harry Wilson,' Johnson answers. 'I'm surprised to see you back in your home town, considering the old ghosts.'
 'Twenty three years is plenty of time to bury old ghosts,' Harry adds.
 'Of course, I heard about your brother by the way,' Johnson states. 'Shame.'
 'We all make mistakes, poor bastard paid for it,' Harry figures.
 'Say, how's your older sibling, e'rm , Carla isn't it?' Johnson asks.
 'I haven't seen her in years,' Bethany claims. 'We had a falling out.'
 'She's most probably a top class hooker,' Johnson sarcastically says.
 'That's too genuine to what she has done in recent years,' Bethany thinks to herself.
 Charlotte stares aggressively at Johnson, as if she is about to launch into a rage at him. Johnson smiles partially and Deloris suggest she and her mother get a drink. In walks the Mason twins, Felicity and Fallon, Mutton dressed as lamb. Chris immediately takes a picture of them and the two women approach Chris and promise him an interview, privately. His face turns red and an annoyed Emma stands by her husbands side.
 'Unfortunately my husband will be indisposed in due course,' Emma blurts. 'As for yourselves, surely a little discretion wouldn't go a miss. I mean what would your grand children say?'
 The twins faces drop instantly, feeling insulted, but Emma isn't scared to get anything off her chest and the two walk away. Johnson eyes are drawn to the Mason twins, but they walk straight up to Harry and start flirting with him.
 'Hey sexy, remember me?' Felicity teases.
 'And me?' Fallon smiles.
 'How could I forget?' Harry nervously said.
 'Just like old times, huh?' Fallon giggles.
 Bethany and Rebecca frown.

 


Saturday 16th December 1978, Hex-Ville High School Christmas Dance.

The Mason twins begin to prance around in the dance hall in the early stages of the Christmas dance. Dominic is dressed up in a suit and hopes he gets to dance with Bethany.

Harry drives to Bethany's and finds a note stating he would have to go alone, due to an emergency.

Billy is wary of Tina's intensions of going to the Christmas dance. He fears she will get it together with Harry. Since he was made aware of Tina and Hanks so called relationship, he's become very controlling. Audrey insists he cannot keep her prisoner in her own home. Greg is seen getting drunk in the local park.

Hank considers gate crashing the dance, as he believes Harry has got a chance of getting a dance from Tina.
'You start taking things personally with my brother Hank, then you and I will have serious problems,' Jeff threats.
'Aren't you forgetting, who and what you're associating yourself with?' Hank reminds Jeff. 'I didn't know family came first in your eyes.'
'Well, I must have had brain surgery in the last twenty hours,' Jeff sarcastically replies. 'And you must have hit your head in that time. In case you forgotten, you and Tina are forgone conclusion. Her daddy saw to that. If you want me on your side, you leave my family out of it and your personal issues to yourself.'
'Well, if you two are going to agree on being spoil sports, I'll do it myself,' Carla insists.
'Carla?' Jeff calls, as she walks away.
'Don't worry pretty boy, your brother is in safe hands,' Carla laughs.

Bethany collects her mother from the police station, but Marilyn is due up for community service. Bethany is devastated that she may not be able to go to the dance. She looks to the time. It's 8:10pm.

Harry sits in his car outside the school, wondering if he should go in, without his date. Suddenly, there is a knock on the window. It's Tina. Harry inform her, Bethany had something come up and had to come alone. Tina tells Harry, that her father has had her on a leash for the last few week, since her and Hank separated. She is concerned for Greg though, he has got worse in the last few weeks and may need a counsellor.
'So who's your date for tonight?' Harry queries.
'I'm like you, waiting for that special someone,' Tina whispers.
'Yeah,' Harry nods.
'If you like, you could always dance with me,' Tina offers. 'Wouldn't your parents flip?' Harry wonders.
'Who gives a shit?' Tina shrugs. 'We only live once. Anyway, we've know each other since we were seven. And you're probably the only person I can warm to right now.' '
Then what are we doing wasting time sitting here? Lets boogie,' Harry grins. Harry and Tina exit the car and hand in hand, head into the school.

 

 

Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York.


 Johnson asks Harry, why his once brother in law, Greg Mcquire didn't attend the Class of '79' reunion? Harry tells Johnson, that Greg was a long time alcoholic, due to some bad times he had in Hex-Ville, with the abuse and neglect he suffered at the hands of Billy and plus he felt he didn't fit in at school, despite the attention that Tina got. Also, the way the Mcquire's were forced to run out of Hex-Ville, didn't help matters either.
 'I can't believe Tina died in the nine eleven attacks of last year,' Johnson adds.
 'Yeah, she was amazing,' Harry replies. 'Tore my life apart. If it hadn't been for Bethany and Rebecca, I don't know where I'd be.'
 'Did you try for more kids?' Johnson queries.
 'Tina had a miscarriage nearly seven years ago. We adopted a boy called Jack, a while after, but he was kidnapped about three years and he's been missing since,' Harry explains. 'Bethany can't have kids.'
 'Jesus Christ, Harry, you must be the bravest guy I know,' Johnson claims. 'Listen, I'm sorry if I seemed a little pig headed, earlier......'
 'Don't apologize,' Harry insists. 'I try to be brave. Even coming back here after so long, had made me nervous. I was in fact up here a few months ago to bury Jeff, but that was only for Jeff to make peace with Mom and Dad.'
 'Forgive me for asking, but how is it, that your parents murderer has never been caught?' Johnson wonders.
 'You're not the first to ask and probably won't be the last,' Harry answers. 'But, to be perfectly honest, I've been asking myself that question for years.'

 Dominic heads into the school corridor to search for the bathroom. He scours around and notices that the layout is different. Dominic finds the men's room and does his duty. After he zips up and washes his hands, he turns around finds Mrs Robinson stood in the doorway. She begins to flirt with him and gestures that she wants to be laid. Dominic demands she move out of the way, but she forces herself on him, he shoves her to the floor and orders her to stop trying to seduce him, just because she did when he was eighteen and walks back to the dance hall. Charlotte then smells the sense of perfume on him and his lips seem redder. Charlotte fears that her husband has been unfaithful and when she spots Mrs Robinson with her blouse suspiciously untidy and open, she grips her wine glass so tightly, it shatters. Dominic and Deloris make sure she is not hurt and Dominic insists on getting her another drink, when Mrs Robinson winks at him from a distance.

 There is then an announcement, the turning on of the Christmas tree by Robinson and the Mason Twins insist on Harry to do the honours and Robinson excepts. Emma holds the camcorder while Chris speaks into it for the 'New York Times,' and Harry takes centre stage for the occasion. Charlotte turns to Dominic, prior to the turning on of the lights.
 'You were a long time in the bathroom,' Charlotte hints.
 'Yeah, I got lost, Dominic lies.
 'Where did you get lost to?' Charlotte asks.
 'Are you OK honey, is your hand......?'
 'My hand is fine and so am I,' Charlotte insists.
 Bethany glances to Charlotte and notices that something is not right. Harry prepares to turn on the lights and everyone applauds and Rebecca whistles.
 'Here we go,' Harry calls. ' Ten seconds, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.'
 Harry presses the button and the Christmas tree lights up in it colourful tone. Only for a few seconds at least, when not just the tree lights turn off, but the whole dance hall goes into darkness.
 'Ah, f***,' Someone groans.
 'Ho, Ho, f***** Ho,' Johnson sarcastically.
 "I'm dreaming Of a dark Christmas, just like the one I ...........'
 'Whoever it is singing like a chipmunk, will be having a "Silent Night", if they don't shut up!' Another voice wines.
 Mrs Robinson tries to assure everyone, it may just be a trip switch, due to the surge of the Christmas tree and knows where the trip switch is and will take care of it personally. Mrs Robinson tries to find her way out of the hall through the darkness and into the corridor.
 'Stay close to me Charlotte, we don't want to go bumping into people,' Dominic calls. 'Charlotte? Charlotte?'
 'Dad, where's Mom?' Deloris whispers.
 'Probably wandered off as usual,' Dominic moans.
 'Oh well it is Friday the 13th after all,' Rebecca says. 'Wouldn't you agree Bethany?........ Beth? My ever loving step mother are ignoring me?........fine.'

 Mrs Robinson heads into her dark office, as the full moon gazes into through the window and she takes out a torch. It works. As she turns to exit the office, Charlotte surprises her.
 'You stay away from my husband,' Charlotte orders.

 

 

 Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York.

 Mrs Robinson is cornered in her office by Charlotte King, who thinks that she is making a play for her husband and demands to know if anything happened, while he was absent from the gathering in the school gym. Mrs Robinson tries to assure Charlotte that nothing is going on, but she is not convinced, as she senses the guilt is written across her face. Mrs Robinson insists on Charlotte letting her pass, as she suggests that it's all in her mind. But, Charlotte quickly reminds her, that Dominic admitted that he had sex with Mrs Robinson in her office twenty four years ago, when he was in his last year of school and Charlotte thinks that Mrs Robinson wanted seconds.
 'OK, you win,' Mrs Robinson sniggers. 'I admit it, I seduced him again and it was just like the first time and it most certainly won't be the last.'
 'You want a bet on that?' Charlotte replies, feeling provoked.
 'I don't know you that well darling, but if I were to bet on anything, he would make a hash on lying to your face,' Robinson grins.
 'Tell me Mrs Robinson, how often after seducing my husband the first time, did you screw your other male students?' Charlotte queries.
 'Probably as often as Dominic regretted getting into bed with the mother of his child, night after night, year after year.' Robinson taunts.
 Charlotte is taunted by Robinson last remark, she grabs her by the throat and starts to choke her and into the dark office, Bethany enters and is shocked to see Charlotte attacking Mrs Robinson. Bethany after a struggle manages to pull Charlotte away from the head teacher. Robinson gasps for air and Bethany tries to calm Charlotte down, who is in tatters.
 'He will be back for more, Charlotte, he won't resist,' Robinson torments.
 'I'm gonna rip your head off!' Charlotte threats, as Bethany restrains her.
 'Leave it, the bitch isn't worth it,' Bethany insists.
 'Must have been hard giving up a rapists son?' Robinson cruelly remarks.
 Bethany immediately sees red.
 'You really wanna piss someone off tonight don't you?' Bethany adds. 'Keep talking c***.'
 Charlotte is stunned by Bethany's strong language, but Mrs Robinson brushes this off and shrugs her shoulders.
 'Am I now?' Robinson smirks. 'Well, since we got everything off our chest, I can get back to restoring the power.'
 Mrs Robinson grabs a screwdriver from inside her draw.
 'Try not to blow yourself through the ceiling, a Christmas tree must cost a lot if it stands without pretty lights,' Bethany jokes.
 'Just like you nearly blew Tina and yourself up in the science lab on that December night of 78'? Robinson points out. 'Was it because Harry wanted her and not you, or was it the fact her Daddy loved her and not you?' I'm guessing both.'
 Bethany is so hurt by Robinsons quotes, she throws a right hook on her chin and she falls into the table. Robinsons provokes her once more and Charlotte is happy to let Bethany do it again. Robinson picks up the screwdriver and attacks Bethany with it and the two women struggle in the blackout. Charlotte can barely see how the two women are faring, as only moonlight is shining through the window. Bethany shoves Robinson backwards, who trips over Charlottes feet and falls to the ground. The two women try to see through the darkness, what has come of their former head teacher. In the moon light, blood can be seen trickling along the floor. Bethany turns her over and te screwdriver has gone right through her chest. Mrs Robinson is dead. Charlotte and Bethany shiver on the spot and wonder where they go from here. The camera focuses in on Bethany, as she stands over Robinsons body.

 


 Saturday 16th December 1978, Hex-Ville High School Christmas Dance.

Bethany puts her mother to bed and looks at the clock. It reads 8:45 pm. Bethany quietly leaves the house and hurries to the school dance.

 'Night Fever,' by the Bee Gees begins to play at the dance. Harry and Tina seems to be having a good time. Harry reminds Tina of the last time they shared a dance together. It was at Tina and Greg's 10th birthday party and Harry gave her a pretend engagement ring and all the other kids laughed, apart from Tina.
'That's because, I wish you had asked me for real,' Tina claims.
'The next time I do ask, it will be for real,' Harry said.
Harry and Tina are about to share a kiss, when Felicity Mason comes between them and starts to force a dance out of him by putting her arms around him. Harry makes no attempt to push her away and this upsets Tina who walks away. Harry feels awkward.
'Don't worry about her, you can have me,' Felicity teases. Tina walks down the corridor in tears and runs into the science lab and breaks down crying. Carla arrives at the dance and spots Harry in dance with Felicity. Carla marches over and tells Felicity to move aside.
'Aren't you like five years too old for this dance Morrison?' Felicity answers.
'I'm not too old to let you kiss my ass, now move aside, you've had your turn,' Carla demands, pushing Felicity aside.
'You f***** whore!' Felicity shouts, walking away to find Fallon dancing with Johnson.

Carla starts dancing sexy with Harry as they get into a rhythm to Thelma Houstons 'Don't Leave Me This Way, and they start becoming the centre of attention. Bethany enters and feels heartbroken by the sight of her sister dancing with her crush. Dominic approaches Bethany and asks her for a dance and she runs off crying, leaving Dominic hurt. The dance between Harry and Carla continues for a few minutes more. Once their dance is finished, everyone applauds and Carla plants a passionate kiss on Harry's lips.

Suddenly, there is an almighty explosion, from inside the school. Some people begin to rush out, but some rush to see where the explosion came from. One of the science labs are on fire and there's a scream from inside. It's Bethany's voice. Carla screams out for her younger sibling, as both Harry and Dominic rush into the firing inferno. The flames are quite fierce and the smoke is partially dense. Harry spots Tina unconscious amongst the debris and pulls her up over his shoulder. Dominic grabs a hold of Bethany and both teenagers drag both girls to safety. They take them outside the front entrance of the school and place them on the grass, as emergency services arrive. Carla tends to her sister. Carla is pissed that Bethany didn't stay home with their mother, but is glad she is safe. Tina regains consciousness.
'What happened?' Tina coughs. '
'You're going to be alright, there was an accident,' Harry assures.
Dominic tries to comfort Bethany, but she seems more interested in going home. Carla helps to her to the ambulance. Hank and Jeff show up and Hank is pained to see Harry comforting Tina.
'What were you and Bethany doing in there?' Harry asks.
'I don't know, my minds a blank,' Tina says. 'Please, hold me Harry.' Bethany stares over to Harry and Tina and realizes, Tina may have her man.

 

Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville. Class Of '79' reunion.

Twenty or so minutes have passed, since the power cut and the whole school is still in darkness. Harry considers finding the fuse box himself and get the lights back on, as everyone is getting anxious and frustrated. Suddenly, they turn back on and the huge Christmas tree lights up in the gym and everybody applauds. Dominic and Deloris are relieved relieved to see Charlotte by the entrance to the gym. They notice she is rather shaken. That's due to the fact, she has been involved in an accidental killing of the head teacher Mrs Robinson. Dominic asks her if she is OK? Charlotte claims she went to the bathroom, as she felt sick. Harry queries Bethany's whereabouts in the blackout? She says she went to check on Charlotte, because she felt sick.
 'I see Friday the 13th, hasn't been so unlucky after all,' Bethany says, pointing to the Christmas tree.
 'Your husband has that special touch Bethany,' Felicity interrupts grasping a glass of red wine. 'He can light a woman's fire, as well as a Christmas tree.'
 'Is that speaking from experience or from a fantasy?' Bethany replies.
 Felicity raises he eyebrow and places the glass down in front of Bethany, before heading to the bathroom. Bethany glances over to Charlotte, who is being comforted by Deloris. Deloris stares back at Bethany worryingly and Deloris insists on taking her outside to get some fresh air. Dominic suspects something is not right, by the way Charlotte and Bethany looked at each other. Bethany turns away. Fallon Mason stands alongside her, almost drunk.
 'Just think, it was almost exactly twenty four years ago, since you and Tina Mcquire were in that lab explosion,' Fallon blurts.
 'Thanks for the reminder,' Bethany sarcastically said.
 'Tell me, what really happened that night?' Fallon queries.
 'It's history, we both survived,' Bethany adds.
 'Mind you, a lot of people thought you deliberately caused that explosion, because you were terrified that Tina would take Harry from you,' Fallon claims.
 'There was no proof of that,' Bethany grunts.
 'So you don't deny it?'
 'What do you want?'
 'Did it hurt, because Harry didn't love you? Or because Tina didn't love you either?

 

 

Saturday 16th December 1978, Hex-Ville Medical Center.

 It's an hour since the science lab explosion. Bethany sits up in her hospital bed, with Carla by her side. The nurse puts stitches in Bethany's leg and when the nurse asks, where her mother   is, Bethany claims that her mother isn't well enough to leave home.

 Audrey and Billy rush to the hospital to see their daughter, who is recovering and are shocked to see Harry by her side. Tina asks where Greg is? Audrey tells Tina that he has been missing for hours. Tina points out that Harry rescued her from the fire, but doesn't remember much before that. Mary and Jonathan are happy to see their son safe, but it's awkward for the majority of the Wilson Mcquire family fold to be in the same room as one another. Jeff is happy his brother is safe. Hank watches from a distance and then he spots Carla leaving Bethany's room, with the nurse. Hank waits for her to leave and he proceeds to Bethany's room. She is curious as to what he wants. Tina wants to be close friends with Harry and her parents are willing to accept it, but Billy insists she doesn't associate herself with Jeff, who's best friends with Hank. Tina assures Billy, that Harry is his own person. Suddenly, Greg stumbles into Tina's room.
'Greg, thank God you're alright,' Tina smiles.
Greg walks over and kisses his twin sister on the forehead and hugs her. Billy storms round her bedside and grabs his son by the scruff.
'You little f***** waste of space,' Billy rages. 'You're getting pissed and your sister is in hospital. Didn't I teach you any respect?' 'Obviously not,' Greg slurs.
'Greg, Tina had us with her hearts in out throats
, but you have had us going out of our bloody minds,' Audrey sighs. '
You maybe, but him, I'll be surprised if he cared about anyone, but himself,' Greg moans. '
If you want to ruin your life go ahead, but not under my roof,' Billy slams.
'We're not gonna let him Billy, he's our son,' Audrey demands.
'Whatever, I'm getting a coffee,' Billy seeths. Billy storms out, as Greg slumps into a chair.

Carla spots Hank leaving Bethany's room.
'Social visit was it?' Carla asks.
'Course it was, what did you think I was doing?' Hank snaps.
'In case you get silly ideas into your head, it's not her style,' Carla argues.
'Silly ideas? Sorry Carla, but I'm not with you.'
'I may be be your c**k sucker at weekends, but if you try bullying my sister, because of your so called dying love for Tina, then I may consider breaking it off and shoving it down your throat,' Carla threats.

Billy and Jonathan have a confrontation in the waiting room. Billy accuses Jonathan of not teaching Jeff right from wrong and that he and Otto have been plots to cover up crimes for his offspring. Mary also gets involved in the argument.
 'Right from wrong?' Mary interrupts. 'I'm surprised poor Greg hasn't had brain damage to know between right and wrong, considering.'
'You've been listening to my wife too long,' Billy laughs.
'I don't know what it is about Sunday nights in your house, but it seems he has this knack of bashing into cupboard doors,' Mary said. '
'Call yourself a lawyer? You're more criminal than my eldest will ever be,' Jonathan figures.
'We'll see. In time, I'll expose you, that brazen lawyer of yours and that bent policeman Kray, for what you really are.' Billy storms off.

Carla re- enters Bethany's room and she queries to what he wanted? Bethany claims, he just checked to make sure she was ok. Stood outside is Dominic.

 

 

 Friday 13th December 2002, Hex-Ville, class of '79' Reunion.


 It's almost Midnight, and the reunion is nearing to a closure. Dominic and Deloris, have already left and have gone to their motel, just outside Hexville. Johnson bids farewell to Harry and Chris and Emma conclude the story for the New York Times. Walking down the steps, Bethany glances round, knowing what had occurred during the blackout. What did Charlotte and herself do with Mrs Robinsons body? Even Harry becomes curious of what happened to the head teacher. The Mason twins stumble up to Harry and Bethany and ask for a lift to their motel. Harry accepts, much to the dismay of his wife and daughter, Rebecca who follows on behind. Chris and Emma head to the motel ahead of the others. Rebecca is uncomfortably sat between Felicity and Fallon. Fallon drunkenly and blatantly starts stroking Rebecca's hair. Bethany notices this as her step daughter braves the journey back to the motel.
 'So what did you do after you left Hex-Ville, Harry?' Felicity asks.
 'I became an architect?' Harry answers.
 'Wow, did you build anything exciting?' Fallon wonders.
 'The New Jersey Suspension Bridge on lower Manhattan,' Harry says.
 'No way, when did you unveil that?' Fallon queries.
 'The summer of 97,' Harry states.
 'Were you and Tina still married then?' Felicity blurts, making Bethany take note.
 Harry takes a while to answer, knowing full well his second wife is sat next to him. Felicity waits a moment to see if he answers. Fallon looks to the passenger seat in front of her, waiting to see how wound up Bethany is.
 'Yes, we were,' Harry nods. 'We were until she passed away.'
 'I can remember that day like it was yesterday,' Fallon sighs. 'Watching them planes hitting the towers and then the collapse. Such a tragedy. It's almost as if, the world was put under a curse.'
 'Yeah, we were stuck in Paris an extra 72 hours, because air space was grounded,' Fallon slurs.
 Rebecca is sickened by Fallon's response and stares right at her. Her face almost touches her face, almost as if she is about to head butt her. Fallon being a forty three year old, doesn't show a good example of being mature. Same goes for Felicity.
 'That's a real crying shame,' Rebecca sarcastically said. 'Could you not swim home?'
 Bethany manages not to laugh at her step daughters quote, as Harry manages to concentrate on getting to the motel. The memory of watching the North tower collapse with Tina inside, is still hard to wipe out of his mind. They eventually arrive at the motel and the twins thank Harry for the lift home, not before kissing him goodnight in front of his wife and daughter. To make matters worse, they are in the room next to them.
 'I can't believe you let them two whores, drool over him like that,' Rebecca growns.
 'You ain't seen nothing yet,' Bethany insists.

 

Wednesday 20th December 1978, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York.


'You ain't seen Nothing Yet,' by Bachman Turner Overdrive, begins to play into the scene. Jonathan is working his last working day, at the building site, before the Christmas holiday. Jonathan receives a phone call from his cabin office and he demands the caller never ring the work number again or his home, but will be in touch.

Mary is seen putting the star on top of the Christmas tree, with a little help from Audrey. Harry and Tina seem to be close again, as Tina is still recovering from the shock of the school fire and is helping with the decorations. Greg sits in a world of his own and Harry encourages him to get practice in for next terms football game. Greg tells Harry he wants to be alone for a while. Otto then pays a surprise social call and Audrey gets butterflies in her stomach. When alone, Otto advises Audrey to leave Billy as he is making her constantly unhappy and declares his love for her.

Harry and Tina go for a walk as it begins to snow. 'Your mother has been fantastic, letting me be closer to you again,' Harry smiles.
'Mom's OK, Daddy on the other hand, well, he came from a strict background. He's too judgemental,' Tina explains.
'Why does he treat Greg like a piece of dirt?' Harry queries. 'He doesn't seem over protective of Greg as he is you.'
'Greg was always Mom's favourite and he always relied on me,' Tina continues. 'He was always scared of Dad's temper since the age of five and.......'
'Tina?' Harry whispers.
'He used to hit Mom, not as often now, and Greg always resented him for that. I always thought Daddy did it, to get a rise out of Greg, but how often do you hear a son striking his father?' Tina figures.
Bethany looks outside her bedroom window and spots Harry and Tina walking on by, hand in hand and it hurts her. She closes her curtain and cries on her bed.

Albert Kray informs the Mcquire's and Morrison's, that the explosion was a gas leak and not treating it as suspicious. Billy is furious and storms round to the Morrison's and accuses Bethany of trying to murder his daughter. Marilyn demands that he leave the house immediately.
'It would be easier if Harry was not interested in my daughter, but where your concerned, you are not fit to be in this society,' Billy cruelly remarks.
'Why do you hate me so much?' Bethany cries.
'Bethany, please go to your room,' Marilyn orders.
'Then again it's no surprise she's turned into a mental case, just look at her mother,' Billy curses.
'Look Mr Hotshot lawyer,' Carla interrupts. 'This is serious allegations your throwing at my sister. There is no way, my sister would do that to your daughter. Bethany is fond of Tina.'
'Since when were the you your sisters protector? Isn't your nature blowing off local gangsters,' Billy argues.
'At least I don't beat on her, like you beat on your son,' Carla counters.
'Shut your mouth, you little bitch,' Billy warns.
'Don't even think about it. I will knee your balls, right through the roof of your f***** mouth,' Carla threats.
'I suggest you leave, seeing as you left in such a hurry the first time,' Marilyn adds.
'This isn't over,' Billy groans, storming off.
Marilyn checks in on Bethany, who is crying.
'Does her know? Bethany bluntly asks.
'Yes he does sweetheart. But, you don't need a father like that. You got me and Carla.

 

It's early morning start of the weekend, after Friday the 13th. Charlotte King sits awake staring at the ceiling in hers and Dominic's Motel bedroom. The previous evening will live long in her memory. Mrs Robinson was last seen bleeding to death in her office, after an altercation with Charlotte and Bethany. Bethany shoved her away in self defense, in which Robinson accidently tripped over Charlotte's feet and unfortunately shoved a screwdriver through her gut as she hit the floor. This all occurred during the blackout and what has been done about Robinson's body is yet to be discovered. Charlotte and Bethany used to share a ward together in a mental institution back in the 90's, but is fearing the worst of facing jail, if the brutal event is stepped upon. How long can Charlotte live with anxiety, knowing full well the consequences, if her family and the law knew what happened? It could drive her insane or worse. Dominic lays next to her in a deep sleep, as is Deloris who lays on the mattress on the floor.

 Bethany awakes to the early morning sunrise, at 7:10 a.m. She looks over to the side of the bed and watches her step daughter peacefully sleeping on the mattress. She then reaches out to her side of the bed to reach out for Harry, but he's not there.

The Suburbs Of Hex-Ville. Harry stands directly outside the home he lived in with his family, many years ago. The house is occupied, but nobody is around to suspect Harry of being suspicious. The house has been modernized in the last twenty plus years, since the Wilson's lived in the house, but it doesn't stop Harry taking a trip down memory lane, one last time to remember fond moments he shared with his parents, and Jeff maybe.

 


Sunday 24th December 1978, Hex-Ville Suburbs, Upstate New York.

 Harry arrives home as dinner is being served and is surprised to see Jeff, sharing a family meal for once with his family.
'Unlike you to share a evening with the family,' Harry points out. 'Did Carla not want to share a passionate clinch under the mistletoe?'
'It is the season of good will, little brother,' Jeff adds. 'And no Carla didn't forget the mistletoe, she says she needed to spend time with Bethany, get over the shock of the accident.'
'Did you help set the table?' Harry queries.
'Of course, that's what being a family is all about,' Jeff figures. Mary comes in from the kitchen with a roast and kisses her sons on the cheek. Jonathan then walks in looking at his watch. The phone then rings and Harry hurries to answer it. It's Tina. Tina thanks him for everything he's done and for saving her life. She then asks if he'd share a few moments with her on Christmas day. Harry informs Tina he'll call her. Harry hangs up, as Jonathan looks to the clock and Harry notices. He's about to ask his Dad, what's bothering him, when there is a knock at the door. It's Carla, who has brought a present over from Bethany to thank him for saving her life and would like to share a moment with him on Christmas Day. Before she turns away, she blows Jeff a kiss.
'Well, well, you got some competition there little bro,' Jeff grins. 'Lost for choice huh?' The family then share a toast and took make it there best Christmas.

Little did Harry know, it would be his last Christmas with his parents ever. Harry wouldn't spend his next Christmas with Jeff until sixteen years later, (which was Season One's 'Fairy Tale Of Christmas').

 

 

Saturday 14th December 2002, Hex-Ville Suburbs, Upstate New York.

Harry stares emotionally around his hometown street. Then something suspicious catches his eye. A figure in red stood about fifty feet away from him, beside a tree. Harry runs towards the figure, as it backs away. When he reaches the tree, the figure is gone.

 The Wilsons and the Kings begin their journey back home to Francis Bay, as Chris and Emma head back to Manhattan. Bethany and Charlotte glance at one another, before they get into their vehicles. Bethany is hoping that Charlotte keeps a lid on it. The Kings drive on first. Harry, Bethany jump in, with Rebecca in the back, as she turns her headphones on.

 The song 'More Than a feeling' by Boston begins to play into the final scenes.

 'I look out this morning and the sun was gone, Turned on some music to start my day
 I lost myself in a familiar song, I closed my eyes and I slipped away
.'

 Eric Lance is seen sat in a park in Hex-Ville looking to his surroundings, at his once hometown, as he spent as Hank Willis.

'It's more than a feeling, when I heard that old song they used to play (more than a feeling), I begin begin dreaming (more than a feeling). Till I see Marianne walk away. I see my Marianne walking away.'

 Elaina arrives at her office at the New York Times, and smiles at a picture of herself, with Abraham and Andy. Elaina knows in her heart she is risking a lot to keep shut about Eric, for Emma's sake, yet she is also doing it to protect Chris too.

'So many people have come and gone, There faces fade as the years go by
 Yet I still recall as I wonder on, As clear as the sun in the summer sky

 Charlotte sits in a trance in the car on the way home. Dominic quickly glances to his wife and suspects something is wrong.

CHORUS...................

 Emma opens her purse and spots a picture of her and Rebecca, before she moved to Long Island.

 

 INTERLUDE.................


 'When I'm tired and thinking cold, I hide in my music and forget the day
 And dream of a girl I used to know, I closed my eyes and she slipped away, she slipped awaaaaayyy ah ah......

 Felicity and Fallon Mason are driving home, when suddenly Felicity begins to have a heart attack at the wheel and she collapses. Fallon panics and attempts to wake her sister, as the car uncontrollably accelerates towards an oncoming train. Fallon lets out a piercing scream, as the car hits the locomotive and explodes into a ball of flames.

 


 CHORUS................

 

Francis Bay, Long Island.

Harry, Bethany and Rebecca arrive home and step into the house and can hear noises in the kitchen and notices the downstairs cellar has been opened. Harry is shocked to find his fugitive once best friend standing eating food and greeting him. It's Steven Whittaker. Harry freezes on the spot as the song plays into the closing titles.

AMY ADAMS as Clara Barton.


 

Francis Bay, Long Island, Saturday 14th December 2002. Harry is reeling from discovering his one best friend and colleague from seven years ago, has broken into his house, while they were in Hex-Ville. Steve was sent to prison for murdering his hit man brother, who killed Norman Labelle and caused Tina's miscarriage. Steve also attempted to murder Jeff and tried to set up Billy Mcquire. It appears Steven is cooking dinner and is hiding out in the cellar, but had no intensions of keep a low profile from his once best friend. Harry on the other hand isn't so amused. Rebecca and Bethany have no incline who Steven is, until Harry acknowledges him in shock. Harry demands Steven stops what he is doing and orders him to give him an explanation on breaking into his house. Steve is really brazen and suggests Harry calms down and relax.
 'Relax?' Harry sarcastically laughs. 'I find a murderer in my house and should relax?'
 'You know me better than,' Steve figures. 'If you were so worried, why did you visit me four years ago, in fact why haven't paid any visits sooner?'
 'Well, for a start you have given goddam good example why,' Harry moans. 'Stop, what you're doing, I'm sending you back to jail.'
 Harry heads to the phone, but Steve is quick to stop him in his tracks in panic. Steve blocks Harry's way to the phone, as Bethany and Rebecca watch on.
 'Please Harry, I beg you don't do this,' Steve pleads.
 'Just so you know, I'm now a man of the law,' Harry informs.
 'You're a police officer?' Steve gasps. 'OK, OK, listen, I admit, I'm a fugitive, but there's a reason.'
 'I can't uphold the law,' Harry insists.
 'I'm on death row, man,' Steve worries.
 'What?' Harry answers. 'After seven years?'
 Bethany moves towards her husband and Steve, feeling she's been put in the dark for a moment, but she has no excuses either.
 'Honey, who is this?' Bethany interrupts.
 'Oh yes, Ma'am, I'm sorry, I'm Steven Whittaker, I was colleague to the best architect that New York City ever graced and I still consider him the best friend I could ask for.'
 'Did you say you were on death row?' Rebecca asks.
 'Yes, I am,' Steve smiles, attracted to Rebecca and shaking her hand. 'May I ask......'
 'I'm Rebecca Turner, well, that's my adopted name anyway. Harry is Daddy..and Tina was my mother.'
 'I see,' Steve replies, turning to Bethany. 'And you must be Harry's wife.'
 'Bethany.'
 'Very nice to meet you.'
 'I wish I could say the same to a murderer inside my house,' Bethany says.
 'Never the proudest moment of my life, but who I killed and tried to kill, weren't all saints eithers,' Steven said, hinting Jeff, who attempted to murder at the end of Season One's 'The Search Part II.' I was sorry to hear about Jeff by the way Harry.'
 'Why are you on death row Steve?' Harry sighs.
 'Let me think. Bad behaviour, Tax cuts, Nobody loves me, I'm not worthy of being gang banged in the prison showers anymore, I cheat at poker, I often call the warden a ball sucker, the list could go on,' Steve sarcastically answers, bringing laughter from Rebecca.
 Harry looks to his daughter with a stern look, as not to encourage Steve anymore.
 'Sorry about the bad language,' Steve whispers. 'I'm not dangerous, I just had a bad lapse in my life. You married Tina, Jeff was getting in the way and my brother was shitting on me, I had nothing to look forward to. If I was going to run, I thought, I'd come see my friend, try to build bridges....by the way I never congratulated you on your last visit on the erection of the 'New Jersey Suspension Bridge.'
 'How did you know I lived here in Francis Bay?' Harry queries.
 'I saw you on the news a few weeks ago, when you were caught up in the attacks from that Linda Perry,' Steve claims. 'They mentioned you were local. Weird CNN, brought me here.'
 Rebecca feels sombre, when Linda's name is mentioned, considering she was madly in love with her and protecting her, before her death. And Harry is yet to discover that Rebecca has kept that secret. Steve looks around the living room and up and around the other sections of the house. He is seems quite envious on how Harry has built his life, but Steve destroyed his and it could be permanent if caught.
 'Your police job, must pay good money,' Steve suspects.
 'How much?' Harry bluntly asks.
 'I didn't come here for money, Man, I just wanted to see you again,' Steve tries to explain.
 'It's a little inconvenient Steve,' Bethany suggests. 'And if we allow you to stay, Harry could lose his job and go to jail for aiding and abetting a wanted fugitive.'
 'I know, I'm putting you all on the line, but I'm terrified,' Steve cries. 'I don't want to die Man. At least let me stay a couple of days to consider my options......I could finish afternoon dinner if you like.'
 Harry looks to Bethany and Rebecca for support, but they shrug their shoulders. Harry will be taking a big leap to help a man, who tried to murder Jeff, six and a half years ago. Plus, Harry himself is now in law enforcement. He may be a small town police officer, but even in small places people talk and of late, things in Francis Bay, haven't been peaceful.
 'As long as you don't blow up my kitchen, like you nearly did your ex girlfriends back in 1987,' Harry warns. 'And another thing, you're sleeping in the cellar.'
 'Even better,' Steve laughs.
 Harry and Steven head into the kitchen, where Steven pours him a drink. Bethany and Rebecca head outside and look across the estuary in the late afternoon sun. Both girls have problems of their own, now they have an extra bad penny turn up.
 'Why didn't you encourage Dad.....Harry to f*** him off?' Rebecca wonders. 'Anyone with secrets like yours....or ours should I say, would never consider having an extra burden on our shoulders.'
 'I didn't see you, willing to urge your DADDY to throw him out,' Bethany states.
 'He doesn't seem like a bad guy,' Rebecca said.
 'I guess, we're just misunderstood then,' Bethany smirks. 'As well as in denial.'
 'You can either love or hate, you can't have both Bethany,' Rebecca reminds Bethany. 'Keep reminding yourself how to love.'
 Bethany kisses Rebecca on the lips quickly and moves inside. Rebecca feels a shiver go down her spine and turns away from the door in tears. Rebecca walks off in the direction of the Lighthouse and Benjamin from inside his cabin house, notices her pacing herself.


 Charlotte still feeling the guilt from the previous evening, heads for an afternoon lie down, not before turning on the TV and the news comes on. "The 'Head teacher of a Suburban High School in Hexville, has been declared missing since, orchestrating a High School reunion for the class of 1979.' Glenda Robinson aged 57, was said to have been in attendance at around 10pm last, but was not seen after a power cut. The family of Mrs Robinson have appealed to any one, who may have information on the whereabouts of the lady, who has been teaching for over thirty years.".......In other news, two unidentified bodies have been recovered from car, which appeared to had collided with a locomotive early this afternoon............................."
 Charlotte turns off the TV and cries her heart out, knowing what had happened to Mrs Robinson the night before. Will she ever be able to control her guilt?

 

 

New York City, Saturday 14th December 2002. Chris and Emma have only been home three hours, when the next door neighbour calls and tells Emma, that a lady by the name of Clara Barton called, but nobody was home, so she left her hotel number. Emma ask, what she wanted? The neighbour said it was personal and was urgent. Emma manages to reach Clara at the hotel and asks to meet face to face, as she needs to speak to her about her friend Rebecca. The way Clara says it, worries Emma, but she agrees to meet, the next morning.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Dominic checks in on Charlotte, who is asleep. Dominic figures it's just the journey that's made her tired. That maybe true, but it's far from just tiredness. It's also the worry of knowing, what herself and Bethany got themselves into, with Mrs Robinson, back in Hexville. Dominic is aware of her disappearance, as he too saw it on the news. He tucks her in and kisses her, before exiting, into the lounge area and sits beside his daughter, Deloris, who is already on the phone to Benjamin. Benjamin tells Deloris, how much he missed her, but Deloris giggles stating she was only gone the night. Deloris gives her love to him, before hanging up.
 'Mom still sleeping?' Deloris queries.
 'Yeah, I thinking she will be for the rest of the night now,' Dominic says.
 'Do you think she needs a doctor?' Deloris wonders.
 'What for?' Dominic asks.
 'She's been really quiet today,' Deloris adds. 'That Johnson was a right asshole.'
 'Yeah, but he did warm to Harry afterwards,' Dominic acknowledges.
 'I think the blackout scared her a bit, Deloris figures. 'Being in a strange place.'
 'Yeah, I guess,' Dominic agrees. 'By morning she'll be right as rain, you'll see.'
 'Bit of mystery about Mrs Robinson going AWOL,' Deloris said.
 'Hang on, we may find out more,' Dominic points out as CNN news returns with it's updates. "This hour, an APB put out on fugitive, who had been given capital punishment. Family in turmoil on missing school Teacher. And what caused a vehicle to collide with a locomotive?................Good evening, I'm Alan Stone, a search is underway for a murderer who had a escaped from a maximum security prison in upstate New York yesterday. Steven Whittaker aged 45 is considered dangerous and should not be approached......."

 Harry and Steve, along with Bethany and Rebecca are also watching CNN, and Steve spits his red wine out laughing, at being considered dangerous.
 'Dangerous?' Steve laughs. 'Where did they get that bullshit from?'
 'Yeah that's a little harsh,' Harry sarcastically replies.
"Mr Whittaker was given a life sentence for the first degree murder of his younger brother, Lawrence Whittaker, seven years ago, who was involved in a dispute over their fathers will. Whittaker also attempted to murder, the now deceased Jeff Wilson. Years on, it's believed the punishment was too lenient and after a brief hearing, Whittaker was put on Death Row between now and five years."
 'I haven't even been misbehaving, while incarcerated,' Steven claims. 'I've tried to prove I'm not dangerous anymore and they end up doing this to me. The judge needs f***** shooting.'
 'In other news, local police in the suburban town of Hex-Ville, are still trying to find leads on the missing school teacher Glenda Robinson aged 57..............'
 Bethany's heart races, as her picture pops up on the screen. Bethany remembers, fighting her off in the school office and Glenda tripping over a now distraught, Charlottes feet and getting impaled by a screwdriver. Only she and Charlotte know, what has come of Glenda Robinsons body. Robinson isn't the only death, she has been involved in. This one may have been accident, but Jeff's death was murder, even if she didn't get blood on her hands. How many more skeletons are yet to be revealed?

New York City, New York Times. Chris pops into work to publish the Hex-Ville reunion story for the class of 1979 and is greeted back by Elaina, who asks if he is aware of Glenda Robinsons sudden disappearance from the reunion. Being a journalist, he should follow up on the story, but Chris doesn't want to take his eye off Eric Lance for so long. Elaina insists she will take care of him for the time being. With Elaina lying, she had been having an affair with Eric, to cover for Emma, Chris feels he can't trust Elaina, but takes her word for it. Would Chris be willing to destroy Elaina's marriage with Abraham, if he thought she was having an affair with a psychopath? What if he knew the truth, Emma and Rebecca slept together? When Elaina is distracted by a phone call, Chris receives an anonymous email.
"Hi pretty boy, missed you lots. We should have fun like the last time. I'm not letting you go that easily, I may just reel you in x."

Francis Bay, Long Island, Bethany prepares a comfortable mattress for Steven down in the cellar and he is grateful for the hospitality, considering he is a wanted suspect. Bethany suggests he doesn't stick around too long, as she intends to keep a stable family life. That's very hypercritical from Bethany, seeing as she was involved in the death of Glenda Robinsons death, the previous evening. Harry enters and makes sure that his friend is comfortable with his accommodation. Steven queries, why he can't just use one of the spare bedrooms? Harry says it's out of the question, as he worries Steven will wander, even during the night and Harry demands Steven doesn't leave the house, while a fugitive. Leaving Steven in the cellar and locking it behind them, Harry and Bethany prepare for their ascendance up the staircase, when there is a knock on the door.
 'I wonder who that could be this time of night,' Harry sighs.
 Bethany paces herself toward the front door and grabs hold of the door handle, hesitating before opening.
 'Who is it?' Bethany calls.
 'FBI.'
 Bethany looks to Harry and he looks to the cellar door, hoping Steven doesn't make a noise, or maybe Harry is considering blowing his cover. A moment later, Harry nods to his wife, given her permission to open. Bethany opens the door and two well dressed male federal agents enter the Wilson household.
 'Can we help you?' Harry asks.
 'Apologies for the interruption so late, we understand you were a friend and colleague of Steven Whittaker a few years back,' Agent 1 said.
 'That's correct,' Harry acknowledges. 'What's this all about?'
 'He's a fugitive, he escaped from prison, in the early hours of yesterday morning,' Agent 2 explains. 'And since it's been made perfectly clear, that he's a high risk to society, we have to take the necessary actions.'
 'Has Mr Whittaker been or made any attempt to contact you by any chance?' Agent 1 interrupts.
 'No, not that I know of, myself, my wife here and my daughter, were attending a school reunion together, upstate,' Harry explains.
 'Where about's upstate? Agent 1 queries.
 'Hex-Ville,' Harry states.
 'What a coincidence for you to attend that Reunion,' Agent 2 suggests. 'That's where that head teacher mysteriously disappeared.'
 'Yeah, we're all perplexed about what happened, doesn't make any sense,' Bethany sighs.
 'How did you find out about Mrs Robinson?' Agent 1 wonders.
 'From my nephew he works for the New York Times,' Harry lies. 'He takes his job seriously.'
 'Just like us,' Agent 1 smiles. 'It says in Whittaker's file, he attempted to murder your brother in early 1996.'
 'Then that's probably one of the reasons he wouldn't want to see me,' Harry figures.
 'Funny you should say that, because the prison warden said, you paid him a visit about four years ago and you seemed pretty cosy.' (reference to Season Fours 'Vertigo').
 'In case I forget to remind you later, or maybe you already know, I'm a police officer,' Harry points out. 'And it's not often a police officer is the one being interrogated.'
 'Sorry you feel that way, we're just doing our job,' Agent 2 whispers.
 'OK, but I'm really tired now, my wife and myself would like to get to bed now, so if you don't mind, I'd like to go to bed this minute,' Harry insists.
 Agent 1 and agent 2 agree to allow Harry and Bethany their peace and quiet, but will be back for more questioning and enquires. The two agents leave and Harry is worried that the agents may suss that Harry is hiding something. Bethany tells him, that the Feds would have showed up sooner or later. Harry doesn't know how long to conceal a fugitive, but Harry could see in Steven's eyes, how terrified he is on being executed. Rebecca comes downstairs in her pyjamas and wonders who was at the door?
 'FBI,' Bethany informs, her step daughter.
 'What did they want?' Rebecca asks. 'Was it about you know who?'
 'Yeah, I don't know, how we're gonna work this,' Bethany answers. 'But, something has got to be done.'

Next Morning, Manhattan, Emma meets Clara Barton in a hotel restaurant and they both order their drinks. Clara claims she is Rebecca's adopted aunt and that Rebecca had a falling out with her adopted parents, who have now moved to Australia, but Clara always knew that Rebecca wanted to find her birth parents and that she lived in New York.
 'How did you know, Rebecca was my friend?' Emma asks.
 'Rebecca's former colleagues at Bloomingdales told me, that she moved away, but she never wanted to tell anybody, because of a situation with her dead uncle,' Clara claims. 'So they told me to contact you.'
 'I see,' Emma responds, as the waitress brings the two ladies wines to the table.
 'Miss.....'
 'Clara.'
 'I will let Rebecca know, you've made your enquiries and I will be I t.....' Emma tries to explain.
 'No, no, I'd like her address please,' Clara blurts.
 'I can't just hand out her address to you, it's not my place,' Emma figures.
 'Are you and Rebecca close?' Clara wonders.
 'Sort of.....she moved away, with her father and step mother,' Emma admits.
 'They told me about her mother, it was really tragic,' Clara replies.
 'It was,' Emma agrees. 'But, I can't give you her address.'
 'I won't tell her, you were my informant,' Clara promises.
 'OK, she moved to Francis Bay, long Island, but that's all the information I'm giving.'
 'Thank you.'
 Clara smiles partially, as tears fill her eyes, with emotion.

 Elaina attempts to contact Chris, but his cell phone is switched off. Abraham demands that she give work and Chris a rest, seeing as it's Sunday. Abraham insists on taking Elaina and Andy out for the afternoon to the zoo. Abraham informs Elaina that Eric Lane has invited them over for dinner to meet his new girlfriend and that Andy will be looked after by an associate from the precinct, and can be trusted, considering the last nut, in Sasha tried bringing harm to Andy. Elaina doesn't feel too keen on the meal deal, but cannot refuse. She begins to wonder, how Eric  managed to keep quiet on having a new girlfriend.

 Francis Bay, Kings Cafeteria, Deloris has flowers delivered to her from Benjamin, who couldn't make seeing her, but will make it up to her that evening. Charlotte walks into a half busy café, just in a thin blouse and underwear and everyone gawks at her. Concerned, Deloris heads round the counter and quickly escorts her mother back to the apartment. Dominic hurries upstairs and immediately suspects something is not right with his wife and Deloris agrees to call the doctor.
 'Something is not right Daddy,' Deloris suspects.
 'Honey, can you go back downstairs, Rebecca will be in, in a minute, don't leave her on her own. I will take care of your mom,' Dominic suggests.
 Deloris glances worryingly to her mother, before heading down.

 

Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca arrives for her afternoon, evening shift, at the Kings Cafeteria, with Harry following in and sees that Deloris is running the shop alone, while Dominic sits with Charlotte for a few moments. Deloris informs Harry and Rebecca, that she hasn't been right, since returning from Hex-Ville and suspects something is bothering her. Harry orders a coffee, while Rebecca starts work. Harry hoists himself onto a stool and waits for service. Harry then glances to his left and a guy in a ginger beard and sunglasses catches his eye, almost as if Harry recognizes him. For some reason, he feels the guy shouldn't be in the coffee shop and he makes sure that Rebecca and Deloris are tending to business. Harry slowly walks in the direction to where the unknown man is sitting and he quickly looks closely and Harry is shocked by who it is. It's Steven Whittaker in disguise, donning a fake beard and sunglasses and grasping a cup of coffee. Harry is not the best bit amused and he tries not to act suspicious in front of all the other customers.
 'Do wanna get arrested?' Harry whispers.
 'I can't hide in god'dam cellar all day, it's driving me insane,' Steve moans. 'It's winter and it's freezing down there.'
 'You're lucky, you have a protected roof over your head,' Harry points out. 'And in case it slipped your mind, the FBI came by last night.'
 'They got nothing on you Harry,' Steve figures.
 'Maybe not, but they insisted on asking me more questions,' Harry states. 'For all I know they could've have followed me here, in case they don't trust me.'
 'Is that how it's been, since Jeff was accused of being a terrorist?' Steve asks.
 'He wasn't a terrorist, he was just misunderstood,' Harry insists.
 'But, I'm not?' Steve groans.
 'You did confess to Jeff, Tina and myself the night Jeff found you, of killing your brother,' Harry reminds Steve, (referencing Season Two's 'New Alliances'). 'Not to forget to mention the police. You call that misunderstood?'
 'OK, I'm sorry,' Steve acknowledges. 'I just needed to get out. Nice place is Francis and the women are so delicious.'
 Steve smiling at Deloris, who nervously smiles back behind the counter. Harry notices his flirtation with Dominic and Charlottes daughter. Harry gives him a nudge, as he worries any more distractions will see them both in jail.
 'She's taken by the way and you're old enough to be her father,' Harry adds. 'And don't let him catch you either, he's six foot tall. Go wait out side round by the alley, I'll pick you up and take you home.'
 'What ever you say officer,' Steve sarcastically replies, standing up and leaving a tip.
 Harry frowns when he sees Steve leaving a dollar note on the table. Since Steve had been on the run from prison, he wouldn't have had any money.
 'How come you got money?' Harry queries. 'I hope you're not stealing from me?'
 'No, I borrowed somebody's wallet,' Steve confesses.
 'You are gonna push me over the edge sooner or later,' Harry worries. 'Explains where you got that stupid disguise. It's no wonder, you didn't caught buying it.'
 'I didn't since you mention it.'
 'Let's get you home, before I end up arresting you myself.

New York City, Emma lays flowers at her father, Otto's, grave. It's been several months since, Otto was caught up in a vigilante attack, that claimed his life, because of the now deceased Jeff's hypnosis by the Cosmos Society and causing him to be seen as a terrorist. Otto aiding Jeff, would back fire drastically. Emma tenderly touches his gravestone, before attempting to call Chris, but his Cell phone is switched off. Emma is annoyed by this and lets out a deep sigh before exiting the cemetery.

Motel, Long Island, 67 miles from Francis Bay and 50 miles from the city, Chris is seen quickly putting his jeans back on, while still shirtless, as he sweats heavily in panic. He turns on his cell phone and notices, he has had several missed calls from Emma and Elaina. As far as both women are concerned, he's investigating the disappearance of Glenda Robinson, but what has he really been up to? The door to the bathroom opens, the camera focuses on male feet and legs and manoeuvres upwards to reveal, Benjamin Bates in just a towel. It looks like Chris and Benjamin are more than just friends. Benjamin, dripping wet from a shower, moves towards Chris and attempts to kiss him, but it looks like Chris is in a hurry. This annoys Benjamin.
 'What's the hurry?' Benjamin asks.
 'I need to get back to the city,' Chris adds, putting on his shirt. 'Emma will be wondering where I've got to.'
 'Bet she had the same problem, when she was sleeping with Rebecca,' Benjamin adds. 'Hypocrite.'
 'So, what you're saying is, you wouldn't give a flying f*** how either my wife or your girlfriend would react? My mother will be spinning in her grave if she saw me now. Dad would have crucified me,' Chris explains.
 'My mother would get a kick out of it,' Benjamin claims.
 'She's a nutcase as well is she?' Chris sarcastically answers, putting his trainers on. 'I'm surprised you don't see more of her.'
 'I love it when your angry, your nose crinkles,' Benjamin teases, rubbing his finger along Chris's arm and placing his right arm around Chris's shoulder. 'Do you regret it?'
 'I'll let you know in the morning,' Chris says, as the two men lips lock.
 'So you are doing it for revenge?' Benjamin suspects.
 'You really don't know me at all do you?' Chris sighs, grabbing his coat and proceeding towards the door.
 Benjamin lays back on the bed and smiles, as Chris heads for the front door.
 'Later, babe.'
 Chris doesn't answer, as he hops into his car and heads back to Manhattan, ready for his excuse. Emma and Rebecca had a one night stand only, but it seems Benjamin was making it look like a full blown affair, and that's what he intends to have with Chris.

Francis Bay, Long Island, Harry sits with Steve in the cellar and Harry is adamant, that if Steve pulls a similar stunt again, he will risk his job and turn him in. Harry states that he will get him some money in a few days and Steve must move on. This disappoints Steve, as Harry heads back upstairs, where Bethany is cooking dinner. Harry suggests giving Steve ten thousand dollars to move on, just to get suspicion off their backs. Bethany is against Harry giving Steve that much, as he would be giving hand outs to a murderer. Rebecca returns home and Dominic is with her. Dominic asks if Harry would like to have a beer with him? Harry feels he shouldn't leave Bethany and Rebecca alone with Steve, but Bethany nods to Harry to go and will put his dinner in the oven. Harry heads out with Dominic.

Bethany is taking an evening shower, whilst listening the Dave Clark Five singing the 1964 song, 'Glad All Over.' Bethany is singing to herself, when she can hear a noise coming from the bedroom. Suddenly, the bathroom door is pushed open and she jumps a little, and pulls back the shower door. Instead of shock, she laughs a little with surprise more than anything. The face of the person entering the bathroom is drawn away from the audience.
 'Are you gonna stand there all day, or are you going to scrub my back?' Bethany chuckles. 'C'mon, I can't reach.'

 Downstairs in the basement, Steven is locked in and is desperate to go to the bathroom. Steven understands Harry doesn't want to take any risks, but to Steve it still feels like he is stuck in a prison cell. This is actually Steve's best chance of a avoiding a death penalty, but it's a burden on Harry and his family. Steve calls out and Rebecca can hear him from the kitchen. She tries to ignore his pleas, but he profusely bangs on the basement door and she marches into the hallway and demands he stop. Steve begs Rebecca to let him out, just so he can use the bathroom properly, as he can't dump his bowl of piss anywhere and it will smell badly. After some begging, Rebecca allows out, but warns him not to be caught by Bethany, otherwise she will get it in the neck. Steve promises he'll be straight and flirtingly kisses Rebecca on the cheek. Rebecca heads back into the kitchen momentarily and Steve heads upstairs to take care of business. After he's finished and heads onto the upstairs hallway, he can hear music coming from the direction of Harry and Bethany's bedroom. He's about to proceed slowly to the bedroom door, when Rebecca spots him from downstairs.
 'Are you gonna stand there all day, or am I forced to put you back in your cell?' Rebecca asks.
 'Please, don't say that cell word, basement is bad enough,' Steven groans.
 'And there was me thinking, you appreciated our hospitality,' Rebecca answers.
 'Of course I do,' Steve acknowledges, reaching the downstairs hallway. 'I understand your father is worried, but I'm not dangerous.'
 'Yet,' Rebecca sarcastically replies.
 'I know you don't know me from Adam, but what you hear on the news is bullshit,' Steve insists. 'I'm surprised your father never mentioned me.'
 'A lot of things have happened, since you were incarcerated, you were probably the least of his worries,' Rebecca explains.
 'Thanks for the kind gesture, Rebecca, you know how to make a guest feel welcome,' Steve sighs.
 'Only genuine guests,' Rebecca grins. 'Now, be a good boy and get back in your cell.'
 'Please, don't say that, geez.'
 Rebecca escorts Steve to the basement and then he quickly turns backs to Rebecca, and then glances back up to upstairs.
 'Harry and Bethany have taken an early night have they?' Steve wonders, pointing to the upstairs bedroom.
 'No, Daddy's gone out and left Bethany and myself to wipe your ass,' Rebecca states.
 'Then who's Bethany sharing her shower with, I can hear water and voices,' Steve claims.
 'That will be the radio, not that it's any of your business.'
 'Believe me, it was Bethany I heard and she was talking to someone. Unless she talks to the radio, instead of singing to it.'
 Rebecca manages to put Steve back into the basement. She takes in Steve's advice for a moment and slowly proceeds up the staircase and towards Harry and Bethany's bedroom. Rebecca peeps through the bedroom door and it's partially dark, as light can be seen from the joined on bathroom. With the door slightly open, Rebecca slowly walks towards the door and then quickly pushes it opens and is caught off guard by her naked step mother, getting out of the shower alone. Rebecca jumps and again Bethany is surprised. Bethany wraps a towel around her body.
 'Your timing is a bit off the Richter Scale tonight sweetheart,' Bethany smiles, grabbing a hair brush. 'Tonight isn't the best night to get hot and steamy anyway, we are concealing a murderer after all and you know all about concealing murderers don't you? Remember Linda Perry?'
 'Never mind about that,' Rebecca interrupts, looking around the dense steamy bathroom. 'Was there someone here with you?'
 'I'm the only one here, my green eyed girl,' Bethany winks.
 Rebecca isn't convinced and glances to the bathroom window, which is open. It is getting a little cold and the chill makes Rebecca shiver on the spot.
 'Are you worried?' Bethany bluntly says.
 'Worried about what?' Rebecca shrugs.
 Bethany walks slowly towards Rebecca in her towel and touches her face tenderly and looks longingly into her eyes. Rebecca does not back away, but feels nervous none the less. Her feelings for her step mother are mixed. She can hate, despise and love her at the same time.
 
'Emma is not here........Linda is no longer here. It's just us,' Bethany whispers.
 'And Da.....Harry.'
 'Everything's negotiable,' Bethany smirks.
 Bethany plants a prolonged passionate kiss on Rebecca's lips and her towel drops down. The clinch is becoming very sexual, then out of the blue, Steven Whittaker surprises the two women. He has somehow got out of the cellar.
 'And I thought Harry couldn't trust me,' Steve laughs. 'Well, this is gonna cost you, more than it will cost him.'

New York City, Lower Manhattan, Chris and Emma's Apartment, Chris arrives home and Emma is relieved that he's home safe and sound. Emma hurries towards him and embraces him tightly, as he can barely remove his coat. Guilty Chris, hesitates before putting his arms around his wife. He is fully aware now, that Emma once had a so-called affair with Rebecca months earlier. Now, he's having an affair with Francis Bay fisherman, Benjamin Bates. Chris was supposed to have been covering the story of the missing teacher from Hex-Ville, that Bethany and Charlotte accidently bumped off. Instead, he's been having it away with someone else Is Chris really avenging Emma's deceit with another guy?
 'Where have you been?' Emma shouts.
 'Sorry,' Chris coughs.
 'Is that it, sorry?' Emma snaps.
 'My car broke down and I lost a signal,' Chris lies. 'Tow truck driver took ages.'
 'Elaina is almost having a nervous breakdown, wondering where you are,' Emma adds.
 'That's Elaina for you,' Chris sarcastically tells Emma heading into the living room and sitting on the sofa.
 Emma marches on after Chris, concerned about his attitude towards her reaction. Chris turns the TV on. Emma quickly sits next to him and grabs the remote and turns the TV off.
 'What's the matter?' Emma asks.
 'Absolutely nothing,' Chris claims.
 'You seem really agitated,' Emma notices.
 'Yeah, I'm just pissed off......Elaina will be anyway,' Chris grunts.
 Emma rubs Chris's shoulder and Chris eye catches this and he slowly moves away. Emma suspects something is not right, as his moving away from Emma's comfort, is almost like rejection. Chris heads into the kitchen and pours himself a drink.
 'Is it really just the story?' Emma queries.
 Chris stares at Emma grasping his drink, not knowing whether to be angry or sorry. Emma almost seems desperate for a true answer, but it looks like she won't get it. Chris quickly gulps his drink down and places it down aggressively, almost cracking it.
 'I'm going for a shower,' Chris said.
 Chris heads to the bathroom, leaving Emma perplexed.

The Anchor Bar, 1/2 mile outside Francis Bay, Harry and Dominic are playing pool and having a beer. The news again starts on the TV behind the bar. "The two bodies removed from a car, of which had collided with a train yesterday morning, have both been identified as 42 year old twin sisters, Felicity and Fallon Mason, who were returning from a school reunion in Hex-Ville. The same school that 57 year old Head teacher Glenda Robinson, who is currently missing, works at. The police are now treating both incidents very suspiciously. The FBI......."
 Harry and Dominic are shocked out of their wits as they walks towards the bar.
 'F*** me,' Dominic gasps. 'What the hell is going on Harry?'
 'I don't know,' Harry worries. 'But, it looks like I'll be expecting another visit from the feds anytime soon.'
 'Another visit?' Dominic questions.
 'Never mind,' Harry diverts. 'Thing is I gave them a lift back to the motel, the other night from the reunion. Myself, Bethany and Rebecca were probably the last ones to see her alive.'
 'As much as I disliked those two, nobody deserves that,' Dominic points out.
 The same FBI agents who questioned, Harry about Steve enter the bar and spot him. Harry rolls his eyes, knowing it's gonna be a long night. Harry turns to Dominic.
 'Same again?' Harry asks, raising his glass.

Kings Cafeteria, Apartment, Francis Bay, Charlotte turns off the TV after discovering the deaths of Felicity and Fallon. This concerns her and fears that it may be a coincidence between the death of Robinson of which herself and Bethany were involved in and the demise of the twins. Charlotte remembers how uncomfortable Bethany was, when Felicity and Fallon showed up at the reunion and how threatened she was. Deloris enters the living room and comforts her mother for a few moments. Suddenly, there is a knock from downstairs and Deloris goes to answer the door. It's Benjamin, with another bunch of flowers and chocolates.
 'Peace offering,' Benjamin smiles.
 Deloris kisses Benjamin, unaware of his dirty secret

 

Monday 16th December 2002, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York. The garbage men arrive at 6:30am prompt, just outside the gateway to Hex-Ville High School, for their early weekly collection. The two loaders hurry to the garbage container which is on wheels and uses a key to unlock it. The driver waits in his cab, while they set the container onto the Dust Cart. Once they raise the container and it flips over, they are distracted by a car honking at them, for blocking the gateway. This distraction, makes them unaware, of the corpse, which is thrown into the back. As the garbage truck crumples all the garbage, it's also tearing away at a lifeless body and a sea of red spurts out of the back, along with a human leg, which lands at the shocked garbage men's feet. They all gasp in terror and the driver hits the emergency switch to halt the process.

New York City, Lower Manhattan, Chris And Emma's Apartment, Emma awakes to find Chris hurryingly getting dressed. His expression and attitude, seems almost replica as the previous evening. Emma again senses Chris is not his normal self. She pulls herself out of bed and as he alters his tie, she begins giving him a massage and immediately he shows how uncomfortable he is, by pulling away and glancing around in discomfort.
 'What are you doing?' Chris snaps.
 'I'm trying to help you relax,' Emma replies in an argumentative tone. 'There's no need to bite my head off.'
 'I'm just in a hurry, that's all,' Chris calms.
 'Honey, what's going? Emma asks.
 'What's is going on is, absolutely nothing Honey,' Chris sarcastically answers, finally dressing himself.
 'I don't believe,' Emma insists. 'You were really shitty with me last night and you've carried on in the same way this morning.'
 'Work can get in top of me sometimes,' Chris claims.
 Emma follows Chris into the living room, where he picks up his camera and paper work.
 'But, you love your job,' Emma figures. 'You thrive on the challenge.'
 'You know me so well,' Chris bluntly says. 'I'll see you later.'
 'Hey,' Emma calls, halting Chris before he gets to the door. 'Don't I get a goodbye kiss or a love you.'
 Chris stares at his wife almost as if she is estranged to him, but he manages to give her a quick peck on the cheek.
 'What am I your cousin, now?' Emma sighs in disbelief.
 'I've told you I love you often enough haven't I?' Chris moans, before storming out, leaving Emma confused and horrified by Chris's behaviour. It's brings tears to her eyes.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Harry slowly paces himself downstairs in his police uniform, with a minor hangover from the previous evening and is annoyed to find Steve, sat at the breakfast table with Bethany and Rebecca. He doesn't say anything, but they all know how pissed off Harry is, that Steve doesn't intend to make life easy for him. Harry grabs himself a coffee and then sits down at the table.
 'I had another run in with the FBI last night,' Harry blurts.
 Steve instantly lower his coffee cup down to take note of Harry's admission.
 'What did they say?' Steve queries.
 'That they have no leads on you and me being a good Samaritan as usual, kept them in the dark on you sleeping out in my basement,' Harry explains. 'And, if neither of you watched the news last night, The Mason twins were found burnt to a crisp after striking train on the early hours of Saturday morning.'
 Bethany and Rebecca react in horror.
 'Oh my God, were they the women at the reunion and the two we gave a ride back to the motel?' Rebecca guesses.
 'Yep, and myself, you and Bethany, along with possibly the motel manager, were the last to see them alive,' Harry adds. 'So prepare for another dip back into the basement Steve old buddy, the Feds want to question us again.'
 'It's a coincidence isn't it?' Rebecca bluntly said.
 'What do mean?' Bethany wonders.
 'The head teacher goes M.I.A and then those two whores get cremated the next day,' Rebecca senses. 'Somebody didn.......'
 Suddenly, Rebecca has a flashback from the episode 'Friday the 13th.' After they drop Felicity and Fallon, back at the motel, Rebecca and Bethany show their annoyance of the twins. Bethany then says 'You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet.' Rebecca sits frozen in her chair and Bethany wonder what is wrong. Rebecca denies anything is wrong and goes to wash up. Harry looks at his watch and demands that Steve gets back in his cellar. Harry kisses Bethany goodbye and heads off to work. Steve sits and waits for Harry to drive away in his patrol car and then he slowly walks into the kitchen to face Rebecca and Bethany. Together they stare at Steve, who smirks at them.
 'Have you both accepted my offer?' Steve asks.
 'A hundred thousand dollars is a stretch,' Bethany worries. 'We can't just give out that sort of money.'
 'You're a part time banker aren't you Beth?' Steve points out. 'You must have experience on how to deal with blackmailers like myself, as well as concealing such a deception. Sleeping with your step daughter.'
 'I need time,' Bethany begs.
 'Tonight sounds like a plan to me,' Steve says.
 'Please, I beg you, respect my step mothers off,' Rebecca pleas.
 'Sorry, but I won't respect your lovers offer,' Steve declines. ' A hundred thousand dollars, 10'o'clock tonight and I'll be gone, or I'll be doing Harry a favour, before I let you put me before the lethal injection.'
 Rebecca shivers on the spot, fearing Steve's intent. Bethany on the other hand reacts calmly. Steve leaves the kitchen and heads upstairs. Bethany assures Rebecca, that everything will work out fine.
 'Of course, you sure have a way of making everything fine, where interfering assholes are concerned,' Rebecca hints, referring to Felicity and Fallon.
 'I don't have time for riddles beautiful, clean up the dishes will you?' Bethany groans.

Kings Cafeteria, Francis Bay. Dominic can hear Charlotte being sick in the bathroom and he enters and Deloris is with her, tending to her mother. Charlotte is in tears too and gasping for breath. Deloris tells Charlotte to relax. Deloris then informs Dominic, that a news flash, revealed Glenda Robinson's dead body was discovered in a garbage truck. It appears her body was thrown into a trash container and it made her mother upset. They all realize it could have been murder. Charlotte knows what really happened to Mrs Robinson, the previous Friday evening. Charlotte then takes rest and after she is left alone for a couple of minutes, she makes a phone call to the Wilson residence and Bethany answers.
 'Hello?' Bethany answers.
 'They found her,' Charlotte whispers, with tears rolling down her face.
 'Charlotte, what are you talking about?' Bethany questions.
 'Her body, was decapitated, because you put her in that can............and we killed her,' Charlotte sobs.
 Charlotte hangs up, leaving Bethany in a double predicament.

Francis Bay, Harbour. Charlotte takes a stroll in the winter sun, under the strain of knowing the body of Glenda Robinson has been discovered. She made it quick to inform Bethany of the finding and fears that the FBI will soon learn the truth of the horrific crime committed on Friday the 13th, prior to the previous weekend. Robinsons death was a freak accident, but the attempted concealing of her corpse wasn't. Charlotte meets up with Benjamin, who quickly shows his concern for her, when she's in tears. Charlotte tells Benjamin, that she is glad to see her daughter with a nice boyfriend and admits at first she became over protective at first with Charlottes personal life. Bethany spots them talking from inside the bank and hurries outside and approaches them both. Benjamin makes himself scarce and Bethany insists Charlotte get a hold of herself. Charlotte is worried, that she won't be able to hold herself together, when the FBI start asking questions, on the school reunion death. Bethany demands that Charlotte lie to them and that they never left the blackout in the school gym and is completely unaware what happened to the head mistress. Charlotte agrees and Bethany heads back to work.

 Rebecca leaves the house, while Steve remains in the basement, under a new padlock, which doesn't prise away from the door.

 Bethany sits at her desk in the bank and looks outside the window and watches Benjamin, sorting fishing nets out and he looks up and notices her watching him. Bethany winks at him, smirking. Benjamin then heads to a call phone and call Chris at the New York Times.

New York Times, Manhattan. Chris answers his phone and is annoyed that Benjamin called him at work.
 'Didn't I tell you not to call me at work? Chris adds.
 'I miss you, pretty boy,' Benjamin grins. 'So, are we still a team?
 'I think I've blown my cover,' Chris replies.
 'What, Emma knows?' Benjamin queries.
 'No, but the way I expressed myself last night, has given her cause for concern,' Chris explains.
 'You should tell her,' Benjamin insists.
 'No, I can't do that, it will destroy her,' Chris answers.
 'Shame the bitch didn't consider the same about you, when her and Rebecca were in the sack,' Benjamin reminds Chris.
 'Don't call her that,' Chris orders.
 'OK, but where do I stand?' Benjamin asks.
 'I'll call you tonight,' Chris claims.
 'Make it before 7:30pm, Deloris is cooking for me tonight.'
 'We sure have the best of both worlds don't we?'
 'Later, honey.'
 Chris hangs up and Elaina makes an abrupt entrance and is pissed at the fact, he didn't call, since he didn't make it to Hexville. Chris lies about his car and the tow truck driver took along time.

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Early evening, Harry arrives home and receives a call from the agents that questioned him previously and want to question him and his family on the murder of Glenda Robinson. They do the same for the Kings and Charlotte shudders at the thought of messing up. So far, they're only being asked for enquiries, as they were guests at a school reunion.

New York City, Precinct. Eric Lance shows a picture of his new girlfriend, Chanel, played by Halle Berry.
 Abraham says they are a perfect match. Eric insists Elaina and Chanel will get on like a house on fire.

Emma and Chris's Apartment, Lower Manhattan.
 Emma tries to get Chris to open up to her, but he is adamant nothing is wrong. It gets to a point where he storms out and heads to a phone booth and calls Benjamin for another get together.

 Francis Bay.
 Harry informs Steve, he will give him ten thousand dollars and he must move on, as he is concerned that the feds will soon suss that he's not being truthful. Little does Harry know, that Steve is aware of a deceit, that Harry is unaware of. Bethany and Rebecca's sexual nature. Steve tells Harry how sorry he is and will miss him. He embraces his friend and is grateful for allowing him to be a burden.

 Next door in Benjamin's cabin house, Benjamin shows how grateful he is to Deloris for cooking dinner and whisks her off to bed. While making love to Deloris, he catches a glance of himself in the mirror and it becomes distracting, while trying to enjoy the pleasure of being satisfied.

 Bethany brings Steve his dinner in the basement and she claims, she has his $100,000 and will leave it in the lighthouse for him. Bethany informs him, she will leave the basement unlocked, by the time herself, Harry and Rebecca head to bed.

 0:1:10 a.m., Benjamin lies awake in the still of the night, as the spotlight of the lighthouse, scours the ocean. Deloris lies peacefully asleep next to him. Steven Whittaker exits the unlocked basement and slowly proceeds into the cold winter night. It's a full moon. He sneaks past Benjamin' cabin house and into the lighthouse, just North East. Making sure the coast is clear, he proceeds up the curved staircase and at between the left and right hand walk way after the staircase, is a suitcase, of which he assumes is the money. As Steven is about to pick it up, the mysterious dark cloaked Blonde ,obscured faced, female killer, who put Linda Perry to the sword, appears from nowhere grasping at it's machete and slices and Dices him. His interference has come at a brutal cost. His own life.
 Charlotte awakes in abruptly to fearful senses, as the camera pans around the Wilson household, Benjamin's cabin and the LIGHTHOUSE!!

Next morning, Harry finds Steve has vanished and Bethany admits she may have left the basement door open accidently. Harry then discovers a notice from what Steven had apparently wrote.
 'Oh, well, he turned me down,' Harry sighs.
 'The money?' Rebecca queries.
 'Yeah, Harry nods. 'I guess he wanted some pride back.
 'At least we can get back to normal now,' Bethany said.
 'I guess,' Harry shrugs.
 'Harry, even if Steven does get caught, he won't tell the police, you hid him here,' Bethany answers. 'Otherwise he wouldn't have been a true friend.'
 'He wasn't a bad guy really,' Harry figures. 'Well, to me personally any way.'
 'Good thing is, we don't have to look over our shoulders anymore, at the worry of the FBI suspecting us of holding a wanted man in the basement,' Rebecca replies.
 'True, but we're in for more questioning, Harry disappoints Rebecca.
 'What for?' Rebecca groans.
 'Glenda Robinson's murder,' Bethany tells Rebecca. 'Apparently she could have be bumped off during that power cut.'
 'I wonder who could have done that,' Rebecca sarcastically acknowledges.
 The FBI suddenly arrive in the vehicle and the family prepare themselves. Harry proceeds outside to meet with the agents, leaving Bethany and Rebecca alone for a few moments. Rebecca turns to her step mother.
 'What really happened to Whittaker, Beth?' Rebecca whispers.
 'Let's just say, he was at the point of no return,' Bethany laughs.

 


This was Michael Douglas final re-occurring guest appearance as Steven Whittaker in the Series. He appeared in Season's One, Two, Four and the Final season.

As it stands, Steven Whittaker is apparently the second victim of the Francis Bay killer. The first apparent victim was Linda Perry in the episode 'Night 'Til Light.' But, the killer may have struck before and will strike again. Question is, who is it?

Sunday 24th December 1978, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York.

Jonathan Wilson slowly walks to a cabin in a woodland, just outside Hex-Ville and meets with Barry Stiller. Barry hands Jonathan a case of cash, worth $25,000. Jonathan says he's not concealing anymore suspicious Merchandise on his workplace, unless he tells him, what they are used for. Barry insists, it's not the right time, but will consider it, if he thinks he has enough confidence to trust him. Barry reminds Jonathan that, what Jonathan is doing, is the only way to afford for Harry to get into college, when he graduates. Barry says he will be in touch after the Christmas period and heads back to his car. Unbeknown to Jonathan, a tall guy about mid thirties, is watching from afar, with binoculars. Has Jonathan been caught out?

Tina and Bethany bump into each other in the local supermarket and exchange kind words and embrace.
'How are you, Beth?' Tina asks.
'Still pretty shook up, from the Christmas Party, other than that having a blast,' Bethany replies, realizing the word 'blast' made Tina uncomfortable. 'Sorry, that quote wasn't very smart.'
'No, it's OK, I think, that explosion, may have blown away a few cobwebs, for the time being anyway,' Tina acknowledges
.
'How about you?' Bethany queries.
'Oh you know, still feeling a bit bruised, but at least we're still alive and kicking,' Tina adds.
'Do you remember much, about the lab explosion, because it doesn't make any sense to me?' Bethany claims.
'Not really, my minds a blank, although I remember Felicity breaking up my dance with Harry,' Tina explains, making Bethany a little jealous.
'He's some guy, Harry,' Bethany partially smiles.
'He sure is, if it hadn't been for him, God knows what might have happened,' Tina sighs.
'Every girl needs a superman in their life, I sure do,' Bethany said.
'Listen, I heard about what my Dad did last week, I wanted to apologise, he had no right to storm into your house and accuse you of trying kill me,' Tina tries to explain.
'You don't have to apologise Tina,' Bethany assures. 'He was probably just in shock. A lot of people think I envy you Tina, because you have all the things I haven't, and I'm just this scorned, loopy, vulnerable girl, with only a unfit mother and whore of a sister to look up to, but you are good person Tina and I'm not jealous of you and it's always a pleasure to see you.'
'I think you missed something else out,' Tina grins.
'What's that?'
'You're in love with Harry and you're worried I might get there first,' Tina points teases.
'Every girl at High School, including the Mason Twins, are in love with Harry,' Bethany laughs. 'Jesus, even my sister has a crush on him and she is three years older than him.'
Tina smiles and agrees with Bethany. Bethany asks how Greg is and Tina informs Bethany that he's been off the booze for a few days and the arguments have settled down. Carla and Marilyn then interrupt the two girls conversation and Marilyn is quick to put her foot in it and curse Billy for accusing Bethany of trying to purposely harm Tina. Bethany assures her mother, that Tina was aware and that it was a big misunderstanding. By Carla's expression, it's seems she is rather jealous and Bethany and Tina's close compassions. Beth and Tina wish each other and Merry Christmas and the two girls embrace and Tina exits.
'I don't want you getting too close to her,' Marilyn warns.
'It's not her fault, our father's an asshole,' Bethany snaps.
'Do as you're told Bethany, we don't want too many people knowing our business,' Carla demands.
'What are you actually worried, I might disown you as my sister, because I swear you did that me years ago,' Bethany scalds, walking ahead of her elder sibling and mother. Listening in, are the Mason Twins.

 


Monday 25th December 1978, Hex-Ville. Christmas Day morning.

 Harry wraps up Tina's present and cards and places it under the bed. He opens his curtains to expect the snow to fall, but it's instead an early sunrise. He heads downstairs to find Mary already doing the preparation for Christmas dinner and already Jeff is out having a quick threesome frolic with Carla. Jonathan heads out into the back garden to bring in some logs for the fire, when he spots a large envelope. He picks it up and opens it and finds photographs of himself, heading into the cabin, with Barry and leaving with a suitcase. The message is that of paper cuttings. "If you wanna play with fire, I'm game." Jonathan quickly hides the evidence, along with the $25,000 and brings in the logs.

Tina has her present ready for Harry, as does Bethany at her place. Who will win Harry's heart? Audrey receives some ear rings from Otto Cole, whilst Tina receives a frame with engraved writing on it from Greg, stating how special a sister she is, and photo beside the writing. The gift brings tears to her eyes and realizes, that the only reason Greg hasn't gone overboard, is because Tina exists. After exchanging more gifts, Greg is partially appreciative of his father, Billy's gift. A shirt. To lighten the mood, Tina suggests building a snowman, if it does decide to snow. Audrey feels bad for her son, but cannot understand, why Billy finds it hard to love his son, like loves and spoils Tina.

Albert Kray agrees to give Jeff and Hank the time off, from dealing in dodgy cars, while he returns to his police work, but wants a return in the New Year. Jeff needs reassurance that Otto won't go rogue on them, despite him being a loyal friend and lawyer to the family. Albert insists he has everything under control and if Billy interferes, he will deal with it.

Mary is happy to have her husband and two sons at the same table for a change, yet Jonathan is fearful of what, or whom may know his secret.

The Mcquire's on the other hand on what starts as a family dinner, quickly turns into a bad tempered argument between Greg and Billy. When Greg, stands up for himself, Billy attacks him and accidently strikes Audrey, while trying to restrain him. Billy is apologetic, but his apologies are met with stunned silence and he walks off.

Bethany asks her mother, if she could head out for a while to give Harry her present for him? Marilyn warns her, not to go anywhere near the Mcquire's. Bethany heads out and comes face to face, with her estranged biological father, Billy.
'Well, well, well, if it isn't Hex-Ville's one and only abnormally scorned party pooper,' Billy slates.
'I know why you hate me so much,' Bethany blurts. 'You just can't admit, that your ashamed to call me your daughter.'
'Sounds to me, the man you thought was your daddy, felt the same way, I guess that's why he's not here,' Billy cruelly remarks. 'Does it feel so easy for you to hate me?' Bethany cries. 'I don't hate you Bethany, I feel nothing for you. You're shit, just like your mother.'
'You're a monster,' Bethany curses. 'How can you go through life, treating your son, my half brother, the way you do? Your wife, Tina.......you got no conscious.'
'Do you? Considering you tried to blow up the girl, who you class as your half sister,' Billy figures.
'I didn't do anything,' Bethany pleads.
'So what was it Beth,
you tried to kill Tina, because she is my true daughter or because of your jealousy concerning, that Wilson brat?........either way you are your mothers little bitch bastard. I can see why your so called whore of a sister can't stand you either.'
In a rage of tears, Bethany attacks him.
'You f***** bastard!!'

 

 Wednesday 18th December 2002, Francis Bay, Middle of the night, Bethany awakes kicking and screaming, which immediately makes Harry jump. Bethany continues to curse and yell out, following her dream.
 'You Bastard, you selfish prick, I hope you f***** suffer......!!!'
 Harry manages to restrain his wife as Rebecca rushes in to the commotion. Harry calms Bethany and soon after a while, Bethany realizes, where she is.
 'It's OK, I'm here,' Harry calms.
 Bethany breaks down in tears.

 

 

Harry asks Bethany, who she was cursing in her dream. Bethany lies and says she dreamt of seeing Albert Kray and getting her revenge on him, for raping her back in the summer of '79.' Bethany claims, it's still a painful memory to forget. Harry comforts his wife, before heading off to the station, leaving both Bethany and Rebecca alone for a few moments, before Rebecca starts her shift at the Cafeteria. Rebecca slowly paces herself towards Bethany in the living and sits next to her on the sofa. Rebecca rubs her stepmothers back.
 'Do wanna talk about it?' Rebecca asks.
 'I've been trying to rid this memory for twenty three years,' Bethany whispers. 'Talking about it, will never destroy that horrible moment in my life.'
 'What about the baby?' Rebecca queries.
 'You know it's strange,' Bethany begins. 'I couldn't bare to look at my son, for the reminder of what that sick Cop did to me. But, when I gave him away, I realized he didn't ask for it and if I had decided to keep him, he would have been mine and no one else's.'
 'Speak to Har......Daddy, and ask him if he thinks it's a good idea to find your son?' Rebecca advises.
 'What if he hates me?' Bethany fears.
 'What, Daddy?'
 'No, my son.'
 'I think, he would understand,' Rebecca assures, Bethany.
 'I'll consider your advise, thank you,' Bethany tearfully smiles, kissing Rebecca on the lips.
 'What did you name him?' Rebecca wonders.
 'Ben,' Bethany informs. 'After my grandfather.
 'That's nice,' Rebecca nods. 'Anyway, I better get going.'
 Rebecca hurries to the door and Bethany calls out to her.
 'Rebecca? I'm sorry if I've been a bitch to you in recent weeks, with what happened with Linda Perry and everything, but believe me.......I only do what I do, is because I love you.'
 Rebecca smiles back, with tears filling her eyes before exiting. Love is something Bethany, felt she never had many a time, in her teen years. Controlled by her mother, an outcast to older sister Carla, and rejected by her biological father, who is fact Billy. Raped by crooked cop Albert Kray and giving birth to a son destroyed any dignity she had left. Spending time in a mental institution, would prove that. The memory of rejection by William Mcquire hurt a lot, as she desperately wanted to be a lot like her half sister Tina, which explains why they were both head over heels in love with Harry. But, would her idolizing of Tina, soon to turn to jealousy? Explains, why Jeff was so quick to judge Bethany, before his death, after Tina had supposedly died in the September 11 attacks, just weeks before Bethany arrived in the city. Coincidence? With Tina now out of the picture, Bethany can step in and take her place? It's seems the scorned second wife of Harry, is out to avenge her past, and brutally and painfully against those who interfere or those who remind her of those bad memories.

 New York City, Eric Lance Apartment. Early evening, Abraham and Elaina arrive for dinner at Eric's apartment. Elaina is weary of Eric, considering she already knows he is not the man, everyone think he is and that he has already murdered someone. Eric introduces the couple to his new soul mate, Chanel Mantel, who is helping cooking dinner. Abraham hands Eric a bottle of champagne to crack open and both Elaina and Chanel get acquainted.
 'So you're editor of the New York Times?' Chanel begins.
 'Yes, about fifteen months now,' Elaina acknowledges.
 'From what I hear you've been the best the papers had in decades,' Chanel adds. ' I heard the last three were as crooked as a butchers pencil. What were their names, Donald Blunt, Lea Wilson and Walt Bradley. Now that Lea Wilson I heard, was a meta human from that secret society the Cosmos and the American Army had to kill her. You my darling, you're gonna be the heart of the city.'
 'Thank you,' Elaina nods. 'How about you, what do you do?'
 'I'm an air hostess,' Chanel replies. 'In fact I met Eric at the airport, when he was arresting those drug dealers. It was love at first sight.'
 'I see,' Elaina bluntly answers.
 'Mind you, he does have that bad boy image,' Chanel figures. 'I don't mind a bad boy. You must have been so relieved, that he was at the right place and at the right time, when he saved your boy....Andy?'
 'Must've been instinct,' Elaina says. 'But, we were overwhelmed. Although, we do have our regrets on leaving him with the babysitter.'
 Chanel looks to Eric, who is still in conversation with Abraham.
 'Do think he's a mystery man?'
 'Mystery?' Elaina questions.
 'He looks the kind,' Chanel suspects.
 'Yes........he sure does,' Elaina agrees.

 Emma is leaving a restaurant and saying her goodnight to colleagues, when she spots Clara Barton sitting alone. Elaina approaches her and asks her, why she has not made the trip to Francis Bay yet? Clara says, she is nervous and wonders if, interfering in her adopted nieces life, is worth dragging up the past. Emma suggests that Clara go with her gut feeling and do what she think is best. The worst that could happen is that Rebecca turns her away. From what had been seen in the episode 'Lost daughter,' Clara appears to go ahead with tracking down her daughter.

Francis Bay, Long Island, Harry is relieved that the FBI have not got anything on them, to link them to the Mason Twins, or Mrs Robinsons, deaths. Also the whereabouts of Steven Whittaker are unknown, ever since he was bludgeoned to death by the Francis Bay murderer. All Harry knows is, is that Steve had wrote him a goodbye letter and is still on the run from the law. Harry, Rebecca and Bethany are watching a comedy show, when there is a knock on the door and Bethany goes to answer it. It's Charlotte, who is in tatters.
 'I need to talk to you,' Charlotte cries.
 Bethany glances around to make sure Harry and Rebecca don't notice and they are distracted by the TV. Bethany pulls Charlotte outside, as the Café owner is in floods of tears.
 'What is it? What's the matter?' Bethany worries.
 'It's still in my head,' Charlotte shakes. 'Her falling onto that screwdriver and the blood...............'
 'OK, listen to me,' Bethany demands, gripping Charlottes arms. 'You have got to hold yourself together, because the neither FBI, or police suspect we have anything to do with her death. I mean it's a relief, you held it together for the interrogation.........'
 'Do you not feel guilty?' Charlotte sobs.
 'I can't take it back,' Bethany moans. 'If I could I would. It was an accident. It's not your fault.'
 'If it wasn't for the excuse of my mental state and me being on medication, they would have suspected me, so I guess you have to thank me for being a nervous wife,' Charlotte insists.
 'Right, so we have to hold it together,' Bethany tries compromise.
 'How long can I hold it together Beth?' Charlotte panics. 'I'm a walking time bomb. That night keeps playing over and over. I don't know how long I can keep this up.'
 'You'll get over it. You have your family, I have mine. A few days from now, Friday the 13th will be a distant memory. OK?'

Bethany heads back into the house, after sending a nervous Charlotte home. Charlotte is almost at breaking point, following Friday the 13th. It seems both her and Bethany are in the clear of Mrs Robinson's death, which both ladies caused. But, with a guilty conscious and with Charlotte suffering from mental health issues, how long will before she blows the whistle on herself and Bethany, who deals with desperate situations accordingly? Harry asks who it was? Bethany lies and pretends it was a sale call, somebody trying to sell. Bethany heads into the kitchen to fix a drink for everyone. Her flashback dream is hard to forget. Rejection by Billy was hard enough, but his hatred was hurting.

 

 


Monday 25th December 1978, Hexville, Upstate New York.


Bethany is thrown into a police cell and Billy is adamant that he will press charges for assault. Bethany argues that she was provoked, but her pleas fall on deaf ears. When Billy leaves cursing his love child. Suddenly, Albert Kray makes an appearance and wonders why Bethany is locked in the slammer?

Carla asks Marilyn, where Bethany has run off to. Marilyn says she went to give Harry his present, but Carla reminds her mother, that Bethany gave her Harry's present the day before to give to him. It seems Bethany has fallen head over heels in love with Harry. There is a knock on the door. It's Dominic, bringing a gift for Bethany.

Tina helps Audrey with her cut lip, but Audrey insists that Tina see Harry and that she and Greg will clear up. Distracted, Greg sneaks a bottle of his fathers bourbon from his fathers liquor cabinet and hides it in his room. Harry calls Tina and they agree to meet.

Jeff offers to lend Harry his car. Harry wonders why Jeff would do that? Jeff insists it's a kind gesture. Harry appreciates it and heads to pick up Tina. Jeff warns his younger sibling to be gentle with her.........the car that is. Harry almost makes a hash of his driving skills, but almost colliding with another vehicle at the junction.
'I think, I've got the hang of it,' Harry calls.
'I hope Tina gets the hang of you little brother,' Jeff sighs.

 While waiting outside for Harry, Hank Willis is then seen walking down the street and Tina holds her nerve, as he approaches her. 'Hi,' Hank calls.
'Hello, Hank,' Tina acknowledges, trying not to make eye contact.
'Merry Christmas,' Hank smiles. 'How are you.'
'Bit bruised, but that's something I should expect being nearly blown to bits in a science lab,' Tina explains.
'I've been worried about you, I've missed you,' Hank claims. 'I wanted to stop by, but I guess that is total out of the question now.' 'Hank, what we had, was great, but there are consequences,' Tina adds. 'It's over and you have to except that.'
'If it weren't for them Mason Twins, we'd still be together,' Hank figures.
'You're seven years older than I am
, and plus I'm still classed as a minor,' Tina replies.
'You're eighteen years old for f*** sake, Tina. How much more of your life, is your father going to control? Unless, you have other things on the agenda.' '
'Like what?' Tina shrugs.
'Like hotshot Harry coming to pick you up in his brothers car,' Hank points out. Harry pulls up alongside Tina and Hank, as Hank looks begrudgingly at Harry, then back to Tina.
'Well, I guess, I'm no longer a picture in your life,' Hank whispers. 'I hope you and Wilson have a happy life together.' Hank storms off and Tina jumps in the car with Harry and they go for a quiet drive.

Marilyn receives a call from the station telling her that Bethany has been detained for assault and both herself and Carla hurry to the police station to pick her up. Harry and Tina sit near a lake and Tina pours her heart out over the way Billy controls her and how he profusely punishes Greg for not being the man, that Billy expects him to be. Tina then tells Harry, that if it wasn't for their friendship, she wouldn't know where to turn. Harry and Tina then look longingly into each others eyes and share a tender kiss.
'I have loved you, since that first day we met in 1967,' Tina confesses. 'I don't know why it's taken me so long, but I realize now, you are the love of my life.'
'I think I have loved you, before I even met you,' Harry chuckles.
'I need you right now, more than ever,' Tina said.
Harry and Tina take each others clothes off and begin make love. For the first time in their lives, Harry and Tina become one.

 Bethany is in tatters when she is picked up by her mother and Carla and she is taken home, where Dominic waits to make sure she OK. Harry and Tina rest relaxing in each others arms naked.
'We have to get back, everyone will be wondering where we are,' Tina points put.
'Yeah, they most probably already have a search party out for us,' Harry agrees.
'My Dad would,' Tina laughs. 'How do you feel.'
'On top of the world,' Harry answers, kissing Tina on the lips.
'Me too,' Tina cuddles.
'I love you Tina Mcquire,' Harry declares.
 'I love you too Harry Wilson,' Tina whispers. 'For the first time in my life, I feel free.'
Harry drops Tina home and he assures her, that he will call her. Tina heads inside and upstairs and is upset, when she sees Greg sprawled out drunk on his bedroom floor.

 Mary and Jonathan ask, Harry how his meeting with Tina went? Harry replies they had a good time. Jonathan and Jeff sense they know what Harry meant and smirk.

Dominic is devastated by how he feels rejected by Bethany.

Albert Kray blackmails Billy in dropping the charges against Bethany, or he will expose his double working life, involving Area 51. Billy questions how he's come by to know of this? Albert claims he makes it his business to know what Billy does, considering Billy wants to know his.

Otto is then see in bed with Audrey.

Bethany cries herself to sleep.

 

 

Thursday 19th December 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island, 12:32 a.m. Bethany lies awake in the dark, with Harry laying by her side. She stares at the ceiling, remembering she was beaten to Harry's heart, by her half sister Tina, all them years ago. Even now, she is married to her high school crush, the feeling of being pushed aside by either Billy or Harry back then was like a kick in the stomach. Months later in the summer of '79' there was worst to come, Physically and Mentally damaging.

 

New York City, Eric Lance Apartment. It's almost 1:00 a.m., and Abraham is way too drunk to drive home, so Chanel decides to call a taxi cab. Elaina is not so drunk, but is still a little over the limit to drive. Elaina thanks Eric and Chanel for the hospitality, as Abraham staggers to his feet. Eric helps Abraham into the cab, as Chanel and Elaina embrace. Eric kisses Elaina on the cheek.
 'Trust me, I'm on your side,' Eric whispers in her ear. 'Just a little pushed sometimes.'
 Elaina tries to figure him out, but he's already killed before. One was murder, the other was defending her son from a mentally ill baby sitter in Sasha. There may have been another murder previously, but Elaina is yet to discover that happening. Is Eric a cross between good and evil? He has some sort of connection to Carla, Bethany and possibly the Cosmos, but what is his true intensions? His true identity is that of Hank Willis and has changed it, to make a mafia family believe he's dead. Elaina and Abraham are escorted home. Eric and Chanel head back into the apartment.
 'Must be awkward playing the good guy,' Chanel says.
 'I don't know, who I am anymore,' Eric sighs, sitting down.
 'Don't blow off on me now Eric,' Chanel groans. 'That disk we had given to us by that guy from Central America, is worthless to us, if we don't get a hard drive that is essential for it's use. It's the people with Meta Human abilities, that will rely on us, to give them hope, a cure. And yet, you insisted on that switch at the airport.'
 'I told you, there is more to the information on that disk, than I realize, I can feel it,' Eric insists.
 'What is it Eric? Or should I call you Hank?' Chanel sarcastically replies.
 'There could be info on that disk, that may not only be that of the Cosmos, but also old records from Area 51 and personal records and other data.'
 'What sort personal records?' Chanel wonders.
 'Somebody from the original Area 51 project connected to Carla Morrison's father, was also a private detective. He was sent out to spy on my criminal activity in Hex-Ville, where I was involved in stolen cars, alongside Albert Kray and Jeff. My criminal life in Miami, may also be on that disk, as well as your criminal life. But, from what I learnt from my brief findings in my fling with Carla back in the early nineties, it became personal with Jonathan Wilson and William Mcquire. Somebody hired this detective to murder Harry and Jeff's parents back in 1979.
 'Who?'
 I can't tell you, it's complicated. She's protecting this guy, who's keeping her secret, like she thinks what I'm doing. I'm sorry, but it has to be this way. I could never trust Abraham with that disk, plus we can't hand that disk to the government, as we're both wanted criminals and we should take care of this personally and quietly. If we are to have any sort of redemption and give these Meta Humans hope of being human again and give Harry Wilson closure, then this is our best shot. If one day Jeff and myself meet on the other side, I hope he thanks me for doing the right thing.'

 

Francis Bay, Long Island. It's late afternoon, Chris calls Benjamin and informs him that he will be coming to the Bay on Christmas Eve, for a family get together. Chris demands he doesn't give anything away, concerning their affair. Benjamin insists they should see how Emma and Rebecca act around each other. Chris replies, that wants to questions Emma's feelings towards Rebecca. Benjamin smiles to himself and tells Chris, he knows how he feels about him. Chris insists that Benjamin doesn't break Deloris's heart just yet. Benjamin then realizes he forgot about his lunch date with Deloris.

 Charlotte almost confesses to the Friday the 13th death of Glenda Robinson to Dominic, but she stops herself. Dominic gets confused, and begs Charlotte to open up to him, but she becomes agitated and they start arguing. She heads into the main café area and meets with Clara Barton, after Deloris had served her.

 Later, that evening Harry is getting ready for his evening shift on patrol and Bethany walks him to his car. A scene from 'Lost Daughter,' is repeated, where Bethany insists that Harry stop worrying about Steven Whittaker, as he's a lost cause. Bethany kisses her husband good night and heads back in and upstairs. Rebecca is then seen walking from the kitchen area and then the doorbell rings. Rebecca answers it and comes face to face with Clara Barton. Clara nervously glares at her and her eyes fill with tears.
 'Can I help you,' Rebecca asks.
 'Oh my God, you have grown up a beautiful young lady,' Clara tearfully smiles.
 'Who are you,' Rebecca worries.
 'I understand why you did what you did,' Clara begins. 'Watching the one person you loved as your sister, die in front of you, with no way to get any memory back. But, you did in the end......you found Solace. You took her adopted name and then you became the daughter of her birth family.......but it didn't stop me from searching. Oh yes, I searched high and low, used every desperate measure I could muster to find my baby girl and here you are, living someone else's life.......I have never stopped loving you Abigail. I have waited twenty to years for this precious moment.'
 'What are you saying,' Rebecca whispers, in tears.
 'I'm your Ma Ma, your Birth Mother,' Clara confesses.
 Rebecca can't hide from this. She stands in complete shock.

 Thursday 19th December 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca is very much put on the spot, when Clara Barton arrives and claims to be her biological mother. Since the Sixth season, we have been made to be aware that Rebecca was in fact the daughter of Harry and Tina. But how much of the truth, do we know about Rebecca? From what we saw in Episode 126, 'Long Lost Daughter,' the truth seems to lay with Clara's findings and that she is truthfully Rebecca's birth mother and that Rebecca isn't a blood Wilson.
 Clara impatiently waits for her long lost daughters response, as Rebecca quivers at the thought of being caught out, by the woman who gave her up for adoption, twenty two years ago. Clara reaches out for her, but Rebecca pushes her hand away.
 'Get out,' Rebecca snaps. 'Who the hell are you, you crazy bitch?'
 'I'm your mother,' Clara claims.
 'My Daddy is a police officer and I will have him arrest you for harassment, if you don't leave right now,' Rebecca threats.
 'Harry Wilson is not your father,' Clara insists. 'Your father, was a one night stand from my freshman year at High School and no matter how much you have tried to hide from the truth, you know your true identity. You can't slam the door in my face forever, because I've got all the time in the World.'
 Rebecca tries to hold it together, as the sun begins to set on the horizon and after a few moment, she reluctantly lets Clara into the house. Rebecca makes sure nobody, has seen the altercation and then she closes the door behind her. Rebecca and Clara head into the living room. Clara stands, but Rebecca allows her to sit down, as she begins to pace and up down nervously, knowing herself that Clara isn't fool by her denial. Rebecca has pulled the wool over Harry's eyes for the last sixteen months, but herself and what Clara discovered only know the truth, behind Rebecca's deception.
 'I apologise for the unkind welcome, Miss......?'
 'Clara.'
 'Clara,' Rebecca acknowledges. 'My step mother is upstairs, so I wish for you to be gone, by the time, I've finished with what I've got to say. I am sorry, that you come all this way for me to disappoint you, but that's how it is. I am not your daughter.
 Clara removes her necklace and opens the locket, revealing Clara at fourteen and baby Abigail, Rebecca's birth name. Clara makes sure that Rebecca see's the picture.
 'This is you, before social services took you away,' Clara shows. 'It wasn't the easiest decision. I was young, I was scared. It wasn't that I didn't want you, I did. But, financially, it would have been impossible to give you the home, that a child needed and every day of my life, you were in my thoughts.'

'Is that the only proof you have, to prove you are really my mother?' Rebecca queries.
'You were adopted by the Smiths and your adopted name is Alicia and they were killed in a plane crash. You were fostered by the Craig's sometime later, where you grew close to their adopted daughter, Rebecca. The true biological daughter of Harry and Tina Wilson, who's birth name was Scarlett. And after Rebecca died, the Craig's blamed you for her death and you were then taken in by the Turners. For years you couldn't wipe that devastating memory of watching the closest person to a sister you had, fall to her death into a raging river before your eyes. Feeling the resentment from your first foster parents, it hurt more than ever and the Turners tried their best for you, but you were out of control by the time you reached eighteen and you ran off with a guy named Rick. But, you still grieved for Rebecca and you begged for forgiveness from Mr Craig, as you begged to find solace with Rebecca. After his rejection, following his wife's suicide years before, you determined yourself to find peace and somehow you fooled the system and you changed your identity to Rebecca Turner, using Rebecca's first name and your second Foster parents second name. You traced Rebecca's birth parents, to New York City, prior to the September 11th attacks and what ever knowledge you used to obtain a birth certificate or resources to fool Mr Wilson, you've done it with complete success,' Clara explains all.
 Clara's words have Rebecca in sheds of tears. Hearing the moment of Rebecca Craig's (scarlett mqcuire wilsons), fall into the river and leaving Alicia helpless at the time, is still a painful reminder to present day Rebecca T Wilson. But, now Clara has very much blown her cover, will she be able to even turn away the one person, who has searched for her through thick and thin and who insists that she never stopped loving her? Clara too is brought to tears.
 'This where you found your solace,' Clara whispers. 'To make peace with Rebecca, because of guilt, because of the torture you had on yourself and because you loved her.'
 Clara reaches out to Rebecca once more and this time, Rebecca doesn't pull back. Clara lifts her long lost daughters chin up and wipes her tears.
 'She was my sister, my best friend. I was nine years old. One minute she was there laughing and smiling, next thing I knew, I was alone,' Rebecca cries. 'They never found her body, she must've drowned.......Why are you here?'
 'Not to expose you, if that's what you're thinking,' Clara replies. 'I came here because I love you. And I wish things had turned out differently, but you really need to consider something. You can't lie forever.'
 'You can't ruin this and I won't let you,' Rebecca worries.
 'I'm not gonna pressure you,' Clara promises. 'But, I will protect you. I will do everything to make Mr Wilson understand.....'
 'How will he understand?!' Rebecca shouts. 'I will lose his love forever.'
 'It won't come to that, I promise,' Clara answers. 'You never lost mine and despite how you've deceived everyone, you will never lose mine. Even being apart, I have loved you unconditionally and it will never stop. Just give me a chance.'
 'How did you know, I lived in Francis Bay?' Rebecca asks.
 'Doesn't matter?' Clara insists.
 'Was it them at Blooming Dales?'
 'No, it wasn't, I used my resources,' Clara lies, covering for Emma.
 'You have certainly put me on the spot,' Rebecca groans. 'What am I gonna do now?'
 'Like I said, I won't pressure you,' Clara nods, wiping her tears away. 'But, please let have a chance to get to know you.'
 Suddenly, footsteps are heard coming down the stairs and the two ladies glance around and are both shocked to see Bethany completely naked, with a bottle of wine in an ice basket.
 'Rebecca, sweetheart, fancy a night cap with your ever loving step mot........'
 Bethany freezes on the spot and accidently drops the wine basket and smashes the wine. Clara looks to Rebecca in astonishment and confusion.
 'Another one of your dark secrets, my baby girl?' Clara sighs.
 'Clara my stepmother, Bethany,' Rebecca introduces. 'Bethany, this is Clara......my mother.'
 ' Finally, it looks like you've got yourself in a pickle, Becky darling,' Bethany sarcastically said.
 'She knows?' Clara gasps.
 'Yeah,' Rebecca admits.

 

Friday 20th December 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island. It's around 4:30 am, and Harry arrives home from his evening shift. He is unaware that there is a guest already sleeping in one of the spare bedrooms. The guest is Clara Barton, the true biological mother of Rebecca. Harry has been duped into thinking, he and his deceased first wife, Tina are the birth parents of Rebecca, who had changed her identity, so she could be close Harry, because of his connection to his daughter, Scarlett, whom he never met and who Rebecca watched apparently fall to her death, when she was nine years old. Clara awakes, as she hears Harry's footsteps ascend the staircase. How she will explain her presence will be nerve racking, even more nerve racking for Rebecca, who shivers and cries as she lies in her bed. If Harry ever discovered the truth, he would probably end his relationship with Rebecca for good and possibly prosecute her for stolen identity. It's her worst fear. Will he understand why she did it? How will he react, to discover, Rebecca, who was Alicia at the time, watched his true daughter, Scarlett, adopted name Rebecca at the time, die in front of her eyes? Surely, it would be too much to bare, the betrayal and thus end any good future for Rebecca. But, with her mother present, will Clara be Rebecca's saviour or her interference?

 As the early sunrise, appears over the horizon, Rebecca heads outside for some early fresh air, to get to grips with recent events. Benjamin is getting dressed for work, on his last Friday before Christmas and he pears outside and notices Rebecca's sorrowed expression. As he heads outside, he catches a glance of himself in the rotating mirror. Annoyed, he turns the mirror away and heads outside from his cabin, and heads over to Rebecca who looks out to the Atlantic from the estuary.
 'Morning,' Benjamin calls.
 'Hi,' Rebecca acknowledges.
 'Are you alright?' Benjamin queries. 'You look worried.'
 'Is it that obvious?' Rebecca asks.
 'Do you wanna talk about it?' Benjamin wonders.
 'It's kinda personal, I'd rather not,' Rebecca insists.
 'I understand, but if you ever want to talk, I'm a only a door away,' Benjamin points out.
 'Thank you, Benjamin, that's sweet,' Rebecca appreciates. 'So, this will be yours and Deloris's first Christmas together? Bought her anything nice?'
 'I'm working on it,' Benjamin claims.
 'Better get to it handsome, Wednesday will come round pretty fast,' Rebecca points out.
 After exchanging conversation, Rebecca heads back inside the house and then Benjamin opens the door to his pick up trunk and pulls a carrier bag from under the drivers seat. It's a gift for Christopher, whom he is having an affair with. As he places the bag back under the seat, again he catches a glimpse of his reflection and it drives him nuts. He smashes the wing mirror, by punching it out. He rests on the bonnet to try and calm down.
 'Come on Ben, get a grip on yourself,' Benjamin sighs.
 Benjamin then looks up and spots Bethany looking out the window, staring at him. He stares back for a few moments, before jumping into his pick up truck and driving off into town. Bethany watches him drive away, before heading back to bed.

 Later, that morning, Clara heads downstairs and again come face to face with her daughter, Rebecca. Clara feels the need to embrace her, but Rebecca is feeling too evasive to let her, to not let Harry get suspicious.
 'I hope the guest room, was comforting for you,' Rebecca says, pouring coffee for the two of them.
 'Yes, it was, thank you,' Clara partially smiles. 'I couldn't sleep much though, I was worried about you. I heard you crying, it breaks my heart. You've had a terrible experience.'
 'I hope you like waffles,' Rebecca replies, ignoring what Clara just said.
 'Coffee will be fine,' Clara insists. 'Are you and Bethany, having an affair?'
 'It's just sex, nothing serious,' Rebecca claims.
 'She comes down the staircase, completely naked with a bottle of champagne, expecting a night of passion with her step daughter and it's nothing serious,' Clara sarcastically laughs. 'I guess I'd better get my facts straight in future.'
 'Please, don't raise your voice, you know who is only upstairs and I would appreciate it, if you were to be gone by the time he gets up,' Rebecca demands.
 'Please don't turn me away,' Clara begs.
 'You're gonna ruin everything,' Rebecca figures.
 'But, I love you. You can't keep lying to yourself, Abigail,' Clara answers.
 'Don't you dare say that name in this house, it's Rebecca or Miss Wilson to you,' Rebecca warns.
 'Keeping a dead girls memory alive, you're doing it the wrong way, baby,' Clara explains. 'I understand you needed to be close to her again, but you've made a fool out of a man, who loves you like his own.'
 'And that's why, he must never find out.'
 Footsteps are then heard coming down the staircase, it's Harry and he is surprised to see another beautiful lady in the house. Rebecca freezes on the spot, when he enters the kitchen. Clara smiles at meeting Harry for the first time.
 'Oh, good morning,' Harry nods, surprised.
 Rebecca tries to think of something to say, so she glances at the clock, and it reads 10:30 a.m.
 'Daddy, it's only ten thirty, you've been working almost all night,' Rebecca groans.
 'Just like her mother used to be,' Harry smiles, referring to Tina. 'Very insistent. I'm sorry, are you a friend of Rebecca's?'
 Harry and Clara shake hands.
 'Actually, I'm her Aunt,' Clara lies. 'Her adopted Aunt.'
 Rebecca is shocked by Clara's made up story, but this leaves Harry rather shocked, as he believed Rebecca wiped all ties with her adopted family.
 'I see,' Harry blunt replies.
 Bethany then enters the house, with groceries and witnesses the meeting, between Harry and Clara. Rebecca heads into the hall, to help Bethany with the groceries.
 'My mother is pretending to be my adopted aunt, just play along,' Rebecca whispers.

 Francis Bay, Harbour. Benjamin is in his office, and he receives a phone call from Christopher, who is calling from a phone booth in Newark.
 'Hi, it's me,' Chris calls.
 'Hey, babe, I've missed you,' Benjamin smiles. 'Can't wait 'til the party, next Tuesday at the Wilsons. I've got a surprise for you.'
 'I just need reassuring, you won't give anything suspicious away at this party?' Chris worries.
 'You mean, with us, and the Rebecca, Emma scenario?' Benjamin asks. 'I insist, we will let them be the making of their own downfall.'
 'Good, because I want to wait 'til the new year, before we decide to tell Emma and Deloris everything. Can't do it now,' Chris begs. 'Then I can expose this crooked cop, that Abraham is working with.'
 'Which one's that?' Benjamin queries.
 'I'll let you know in time,' Chris promises.
 'OK, see you next Tuesday,' Benjamin agrees.
 'Did you just call me, what I thought you did?' Chris laughs.
 'Would you rather I call you that in bed?'
 'That sounds pretty Hard core, Bub bye.'

 

Deloris is helping Dominic put the Christmas tree up and all the other decorations, when Charlotte comes into the main area. She notices how uncomfortable Dominic is, following their argument the day before, as Dominic thinks that Charlotte can't trust him, to trust her in opening up, with what's bothering her. It's exactly a week, since the reunion get together at Hex-Ville High, in which Glenda Robinson, was accidently bumped off by Bethany and Charlotte. Charlotte grabs herself a soda water and Deloris notices the uncomfortable silences. Benjamin enters on his lunch break and claims he going to buy her a special gift for Christmas and may yet give it to her at the Wilson party, on Christmas Eve. He also produces a box of chocolates for missing their date, the previous morning. Deloris forgives him and agrees to meet him later. Dominic and Charlotte glance at one another momentarily and then heads to get a hammer and nail.
 'How longs this gonna go on for Ma Ma?' Deloris sighs.
 'It's nothing, it will blow over,' Charlotte assures her daughter.
 'I hope so, it is the season of good will after all,' Deloris adds.
 'You know, I was thinking, that we should visit James grave, before Harry and Bethany throw the party. Just so, he knows that we haven't forgot about him,' Charlotte suggests. 'I know you miss him Deloris, he was your little brother.'
 'I do, maybe you should discuss it with Dad, though first,' Deloris encourages. 'Will an excuse to clear the air between you two.'
 'Maybe it will clear the air,' Charlotte agrees.
 Charlotte kisses Deloris, as she goes to clear some tables.

 Later that evening, Clara looks out to sea, stand on the outside of the Lighthouse, as the wind blows through her hair. She was rather surprised, that Rebecca would allow her to stay for the evening, but is now concerned that she maybe forced out of the Wilson household, as Rebecca is worried, that Clara will expose her true identity. Clara looks at the picture in her locket of Rebecca, when she was Abigail and she touches the picture, trying to hold back the tears. Harry then surprises Clara and Clara quickly closes the locket on her necklace. Clara gets herself together.
 'It's beautiful up here,' Clara begins. 'You haven't got the hustle and bustle of Manhattan on your doorstep.'
 'True,' Harry agrees. 'But, it hasn't been all plain sailing though since we've moved here from the city.'
 'Yeah, I saw on the news about that girl, that turned into a vampire,' Clara adds. 'Was she a Meta Human, like all the others scattered across the globe?'
 'More than likely,' Harry answers. 'She might have been an experiment that was studied by that fraudulent society the Cosmos and she made her escape, when Wall Street was put under investigation. Her death didn't make sense though, I was the last to see her alive, after she through me out of the house window. She was found dead on the beach, two miles south of here.'
 'Oh my God, was Rebecca hurt?' Clara gasps.
 'A little, a few cuts and bruises, nothing serious,' Harry informs. 'On the change of subject, why all this time?'
 'You mean why have I showed up out of the blue?' Clara suspects.
 'Well, it is a bit abrupt, and Rebecca washed her hands clean of her adopted parents last I heard,' Harry explains.
 'I understand that Mr Wilson,' Clara acknowledges. 'But, I loved Rebecca and never stopped. What ever conflict she had with my sister, was nothing to do with me. Her adopted parents are living in Australia now. We rarely speak ourselves. I just wanted to make Rebecca aware, that I didn't stopped thinking about. I never had children of my own Mr Wilson, Rebecca was the closest person to a daughter I ever had.'
 Harry seems warmed to Clara's lies and rubs her shoulder. It would be an entirely different reaction if he knew the actual truth, on who Clara really is and the deceit that Rebecca had been hiding for nearly a year and a three months.
 'Well, it seems Rebecca's has acknowledged the fact, that you are very nice genuine person,' Harry smiles. 'And if she's happy, then I'm willing to except you still part of her family.'
 'Thank you, Mr Wilson, that is very kind of you,' Clara nods.
 'And since, you came all this way, I'd like for you to stay with us, for the duration of the Christmas period,' Harry invites.

 Inside the Wilson household, Bethany adds a few touches to the Christmas tree, by placing the star on top. While, Rebecca nervously taps the kitchen counter, watching Harry and Clara exchange conversation on the outside of the lighthouse. One moment of guilt, could see Clara confess the truth and that's why Rebecca's eyes are firmly left on the two in conversation outside. She is then distracted by Benjamin and Charlotte arriving in the pickup truck, and Charlotte notices Rebecca looking out and she waves. Rebecca waves back. Rebecca glances back to the lighthouse, behind Benjamin's cabin and Harry and Clara have vanished and realizes they're headed back to the house. Bethany makes Rebecca jumps, when she squeezes her hips.
 'Relax,' Bethany said. 'Nothings gonna happen.'
 'What are you gonna do, gag her with the Christmas lights, then box her and throw her down the Chimney?' Rebecca sarcastically replies.
 'What do you take me for? Bethany grunts. 'Norman Bates mother?'
 'Have you talked to Daddy, about your long son?' Rebecca queries. 'Seeing as my inconvenient mother has showed up, maybe you should consider finding your son.'
 Bethany turns and starts cutting the vegetables.
 'Yeah, maybe, Bethany shrugs.
 Rebecca exits the kitchen as Harry and Clara head back in.

 In Benjamin's cabin house, Benjamin places his rotating mirror into the closet. As he heads into his small living room, he spots Bethany in the kitchen of the main house and she catches him watching her and she winks at him. Benjamin smiles back. Deloris is looking through his CD selection, some of which are old and new music.
 'Great collection, here,' Deloris notices. 'The Beatles, The Animals, Elvis Pressley, Duran Duran. The Dave Clark Five? You have interesting taste hidden in your closet. How does that song go? 'Glad all over, baby I'm a' Glad all over, so glad you're miiiiiiine.'
 'Very good,' Benjamin grins. 'I see you like your sixties hits.'
 'Tell you what, we'll take these over to the party next Tuesday, get down and boogie,' Deloris cheers.
 'I like the sound of that,' Benjamin agrees, as he and Deloris start to make love.

 

 

 Saturday 21st December 2002, Manhattan Mall, New York City. Clara has taken Rebecca shopping for the first time. It took some convincing, but in order to keep Harry from discovering her identity, Rebecca couldn't take the risk. But, will she be able to warm to her birth mother, who gave her up, when Clara was only fourteen years old at the time. It's a manic in the city that never sleeps.
'All I Want For Christmas Is You,' by Mariah Carey is playing on the surround sound Mall Radio. Clara is overwhelmed that she is spending her first Christmas shopping spree with her daughter, who almost brings to tears to her eyes. She tries to interact with Rebecca by holding her hand, but Rebecca feels uncomfortable and pulls away. Clara holds it together, despite Rebecca being awkward, unless Rebecca feels that Clara is being the awkward one, by interfering.
 'This has been really nice,' Clara smiles. 'Our first Christmas spree together.'
 'I'm only doing this, because I feel manipulated,' Rebecca claims.
 'That hurts, Rebecca,' Clara sighs. 'I'm not intending to ruin your relationship with your Dad.'
 'Then why are you here?' Rebecca snaps.
 'Because, I wanted to be sure, you were my daughter,' Clara insists.
 'The day you gave me away, was the day I stopped being your daughter,' Rebecca answers in an argumentative tone.
 'I was fourteen years old Rebecca, I was just a kid at the time, I guess I still didn't know right from wrong,' Clara tries to explain.
 'But, you knew how to spread your legs,' Rebecca cruelly remarks.
 Clara is so upset by her daughters crude remark, she slaps her across the face. But, after doing so, Clara regrets it, and leaving Rebecca red faced on one side.
 'I'm so sorry, I didn't mea...........' Clara begs.
 'This is exactly what I'm talking about, you're only here for your benefit, not mine,' Rebecca moans.'
 'My benefit?' Clara wonders.
 'Because I have money,' Rebecca informs.
 'That is way off the line Rebecca, money has nothing to do with it?' Clara states.
 'How much will it take for you to get the f*** out of my life?' Rebecca whispers.
 Clara is shocked by Rebecca's accusations. For months Clara has had the dream of meeting her only offspring, the daughter that she has loved all her life, despite not being in her life for Twenty two years, not being able to protect her, comfort her and point her in the right direction. And now, it seems all that trying and convincing, has all been thrown back in her face. But, is Rebecca's decision based on the fact, she is living with a controversial Step mother in Bethany, who has had secrets of her own and both have concealed each others backgrounds?
 'Well, I guess I have been mislead into thinking we were finally getting somewhere,' Clara cries, wiping her right eye. 'The last few hours, seemed so promising, I honestly thought, that you believed I loved you, but you seem so eager to get rid of me. Well, congratulations you have.' Clara pulls out a box in her bag and shoves it into Rebecca's hand aggressively. 'Here, you hurtful little bitch. I bought that for you, while you were powdering your nose. Don't worry, it only cost four thousand dollars, but I forgot, I'm not worth as much as you are. Oh, by the way, my source on finding you, Your friend, Emma sent me in the right direction or should I say regrettable direction.'
 Rebecca stands frozen at Clara's admission, as Clara walks off in tears, through the crowd. Rebecca stares at the box give to her by her mother and she opens it to reveal a gold bracelet. Rebecca touches it and feels quickly guilty by how she acted out on the woman, who has spent all her life in regret on giving her away. Rebecca closes it up and places it in her bag and goes in search of Clara.

Precinct, New York City. Abraham is heading out with his wife, Elaina, when Eric Lance arrives hauling in a cat burglar. Abraham informs Eric, that himself and Elaina are headed to Francis Bay for the Wilsons Christmas party on Christmas Eve. Eric then surprises Elaina, when he offers to babysit Andy. Elaina is about to turn down his offer, when Abraham interrupts and excepts. Elaina suspects Eric is only doing it, to try and prove he isn't dangerous and has a girlfriend in Chanel. As Abraham and Elaina head out, Elaina looks back at Eric with a stare, as Eric calmly stares back.

Sixth Avenue, Manhattan. Rebecca spots Clara sat on a bench lighting a cigarette, which surprises her, because she never suspected of Clara being a smoker. But, after recent events, and feeling rejected, it has hit Clara hard and thinking this is revenge for making Rebecca think she was rejected after being born. Rebecca can see how destroyed her birth mother is and begins to feel incredibly sorry for her. Rebecca is so scared that her identity will be revealed to Harry and the last thing she expected was her past to come and ruin it, but Clara is genuine and her only intensions are to have a relationship with her daughter. Rebecca slowly paces herself towards Clara and through and flock of pigeons, of which flutter away.
 'The bracelet was beautiful, thank you,' Rebecca calls.
 'You were right Rebecca, I'm no good to you,' Clara replies in denial. 'After all, I did advise you the last two days to eventually open up to Har......your daddy about who you really are. That's not exactly being a loving mother is it, because you obviously thought I was after your millions. I'm just a defence lawyer after all, on a sixth month sick break, for depression and for .............looking for my lost child.'
 'You haven't lost her.......she's right here,' Rebecca assures.
 'Are you saying that, because you want to make sure, I won.........'
 'I'm saying it, because, I......I......I really want you to stay,' Rebecca shivers, as snow begins to fall. 'I'm sorry for what I said, please come back to Francis Bay.' Rebecca then flashes a smile. 'Better make it fast, it could be slippery and wet on the road, it is a two and a half hour drive.'
 Clara smiles and both her and Rebecca prepare for their trip, back to Long Island.


 

Tuesday 24th December 2002, Francis Bay, Long Island. It's Christmas Eve and the day of the Wilson Christmas party and the day before Christmas Day. It's the season of goodwill and in the supposed quiet town of Francis, it will be anything, but quiet, uneventful and painless, yet AGAIN.

Rebecca is putting on a long red dress for the Christmas Party, which is a late afternoon to evening event. Rebecca finds it difficult to yip up her dress from the back and is then startled when, Bethany starts yipping her up.
 'Relax,' Bethany insists. 'It's me.'
 Rebecca smiles and allows Bethany to yip her dress up. Bethany then starts to smell Rebecca's hair and rubs her shoulders. Rebecca allows her to do this, but then spots her mother, Clara watching them in the mirror and Rebecca immediately pulls away, in which Clara then descends the staircase. Rebecca smiles nervously back to her step mother, who tickles her chin and kisses her quickly on the lips before heading downstairs for the final preparations. Rebecca slowly paces herself towards her dresser and puts on the gold bracelet, that Clara bought her the previous weekend. It seems Rebecca, is somehow coming to grips with her long lost mothers presence and feels this could be a chance to have a relationship with her, providing her secret stays secret.

 Harry and Dominic carry the food from Dominic's car into the house, just as early guests Chris and Emma arrive from New York City. Benjamin peers through the window, at his lover arriving with his wife, who will highly likely interact with Rebecca for long periods. Out of the passenger steps Charlotte in a white dress. Benjamin calls out to Deloris in the cabin, to let her know her parents have arrived. Deloris exits the bedroom in a flowery dress, and Benjamin seems genuinely attracted to his current girlfriend, who he intends to dump for Christopher by the time the year 2003 comes round. Benjamin and Deloris meet her parents and acting charming, Benjamin kindly gestures how beautiful, Charlotte is and kisses her on the cheek. When Charlotte enters the Wilson Residence, she spots Clara helping Rebecca with her bracelet and recognizes her from the first time, herself and recognizes her from the Café the previous week, when Clara asked for directions to the house.
 'Hi,' Clara acknowledges.
 'How you liking your stay so far Clara?' Charlotte asks.
 'Nice and peaceful,' Clara says. 'And I get to spend some quality time with my daugh..........my niece.'
 'I don't know about peaceful,' Charlotte adds. 'We had a killer vampire on the loose a few weeks back in the female form of Linda Perry. She's dead now thank God.'
 Rebecca makes herself scarce from the conversation as the events, that Charlotte is referring to, hurt very much to Rebecca, as she had fallen in love with Linda and even though she had a split personality, it pained to see Linda die in her arms. Rebecca then comes face to face with, her one night stand, Emma, whom she also loved. Rebecca feels awkward, as Emma smiles back to her. Rebecca is upset at the fact, that Emma gave info on her whereabouts to Clara.
 'Are you OK?' Emma grins.
 'Yeah, I'm fine...I guess,' Rebecca nods.
 Emma then notices the gold bracelet, that Rebecca is wearing.
 'That looks expensive and nice,' Emma points out.
 'Yeah, Clara bought it for me while we were out shopping, no thanks to you,' Rebecca sarcastically replies.
 Emma pulls Rebecca aside, as Benjamin takes note, as he pours himself a bottle of wine.
 'I'm so sorry, I was put on the spot,' Emma claims.
 'All you had to do, was call me and ask my permission to let her find me,' Rebecca snaps.
 'She wanted it to be a surprise,' Emma tries to explain.
 'But, I told you about my past and my adopted parents,' Rebecca answers.
 'If she's buying you expensive jewellery, she can't be all that bad,' Emma figures.
 Benjamin continues to watch the two suspicious girls talking and walks over to Chris and gives him a nudge.
 'Hey, pretty boy,' Benjamin whispers.
 'Not here, Ben, people will get suspicious,' Chris warns.
 'I think you should know, that your wife and her girlfriend are attempting to get in line first for suspicion,' Benjamin points towards Rebecca and Emma.
 Christopher notices that both girls seem agitated in conversation in the hallway. Benjamin thinks it's one big joke to him and profusely glares at Chris, wondering what he intends to do.
 'They obviously want each other,' Benjamin suspects. 'But, I'm here for you to fall back on......I love you.'
 'Benjamin, Deloris is only over there, don't give the game away tonight and of all places,' Chris pleads.
 Emma and Rebecca continue their disagreement over Emma informing Clara, where to find Rebecca.
 'Rebecca, all I did was tell her which town you lived in,' Emma states.
 'If, that's true, then how did she get my full address?' Rebecca sighs.
 'Beats, the shit out of me,' Emma insists.
 The doorbell then rings, and Bethany hurries to answer it. It's Abraham and Elaina and she embraces the both of them. Over her shoulder, Elaina notices Rebecca and Emma near the staircase and both act natural. Both Emma and Rebecca are already aware, that Elaina knows of their once passion and whom is covering for her, to protect a secretive cop in Eric Lance, who is baby sitting Andy with Chanel Mantel.
 'You didn't bring Andy?' Bethany queries.
 'No, we didn't, we thought it was going to be a non child event,' Elaina thought.
 'Don't be silly, you're all welcome. You got a babysitter, then?'
 'Yeah, he's staying with my deputy and his girlfriend from the precinct for the evening,' Abraham informs. 'We'll pick him up, later tonight, when we get back to the city.'
 Bethany suspects the deputy, Abraham is referring to is Eric Lance, who's identity she is already aware of, is Hank Willis. Bethany hangs their coats up in the closet and then heads into the kitchen to fetch the food. Benjamin kisses Deloris and tells her, he' going to the bathroom. On the way, he spots Bethany alone in the kitchen. She turns and smiles and winks at him.
 'You wanna help with the food, instead of loitering?' Bethany chuckles.
 'I'll be right back,' Benjamin says.
 Other guests then arrive from, Bethany's bank and from Harry's local precinct. One of the local police officers, Ted Sumner takes a shine to Clara, whilst Brad Hayes becomes attracted to Clara. Harry suggests they play some music and urges Deloris to play some of Benjamin's classics. Harry insists on a random disc and pulls out Remy Zero. It's first track play's 'Somebody    Save Me.'

 'I feel my wings have broken in your hands, I feel the words unspoken inside
And they pull you under, And I will give you anything you want, oh, You're all I wanted
All my dreams are fallen down, crawlin' around and around and around

'SomeBody savvvvve me, Let your warm hands break right through it, Somebody saavvvvvve me, I don't care how you do it
Just stay, stay, C'mon, I've been waiting for you...................' continued
.

 

Eric Lane apartment, Manhattan, NYC. Andy is watching the 1995 movie 'Jumanji,' who is being babysat by Eric and his sort of girlfriend, Chanel Mantel, who are on a mission to use resources to track down a hard drive which was used by the Cosmos,
 in order to discover the information on the disk, which was sent to the States by Jeff, prior to his death, but it never reached Abraham. It found it's way into the possession of Eric and Chanel. Chanel orders a pizza and Eric asks Chanel to look after Andy for twenty minutes, while he heads out to buy some ice cream.
 'He's taken to you,' Chanel notices.
 'Andy thinks I'm an heroic version of Bruce Lee,' Eric answers. 'But, if Abraham ever discovered the truth about me or you, he may never understand. I have murdered twice and I'm not proud of it. I have this side, that just goes over board, when it comes to making the peace for your own needs or others, that you even hate.'
 'We could end up in jail, despite, what our real intensions are,' Chanel sighs. 'I always wanted kids of my own.'
 'I guess we'd better show a good example of being good role models, if we wanna be parents,' Eric insists. 'And it begins by me getting the chocolate ice cream in and you acting as mother to Andy.'
 'Eric?' Chanel whispers. 'Do you ever see us being a real couple instead of acting as one? I think I'm really in love with you.'
 Eric is stunned by Chanel's confession, he never thought, they could actual be a couple, but since they've been acting as one, to keep Elaina off his back and to conceal their true intensions, it's not impossible for him to whisk her off her feet for real.
 'I'll be back in twenty,' Eric bluntly said, exiting the apartment. Eric heads down an alley, opposite his own apartment and looks at his watch. It reads 18:37 p.m. Suddenly, car flashlights are flickered. Eric approaches the vehicle and meets with a private investigator.
 'I have what you asked for,' the investigators shows, handing Eric a brown envelope. 'I've kept tabs on the Wilson boy and Mrs Carlisle, just as you asked.'
 Eric takes out pictures and info on both Elaina and Christopher. Elaina doesn't seem to show anything suspicions on checking up on Eric, due to his blackmail on revealing Emma's affair on Chris, and also just shows an interest on being a mother and wife. But, Chris, there are pictures of him and Benjamin getting a little too close for comfort. Eric chuckles at what he's discovered.
 'Well, well, well,' Eric sighs. 'Christopher Wilson and Benjamin Bates. I guess we're in a bit of a pickle aren't we?'
 'I take it, you're gonna send the pictures to Emma Wilson?' the investigator queries.
 'Not that it's any of your concern,' Eric continues, handing the investigator $5000 in cash. 'That wouldn't be the best approach for my personal issues. But, I know a woman that would be willing to negotiate, even if she is the one I intend to expose and destroy by the time my mission is complete.' Who is Eric referring to?'

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca hands Emma her Christmas present in her bedroom. Emma opens it and it's a pair of dolphin ear rings and it leaves Emma surprised.
 'Rebecca I don't know, what to say,' Emma gasps.
 'Just say you'll except this gift,' Rebecca encourages.
 'Thank you,' Emma emotionally answers.
 Emma and Rebecca share an embrace and then they look passionately into each others eyes. It seems they about to rekindle old memories with a kiss, but are then startled by Benjamin's presence.
 'So this is where, you too are hiding out,' Benjamin giggles.
 Um, yeah, Rebecca was just giving me my early Christmas gift,' Emma points out. 'A pair of ear rings.'
 'Nice, what did you get Rebecca, a vibrating dildo?' Benjamin sarcastically jokes.
 Both girls don't answer to Benjamin's quirky quote, as he heads back downstairs. Rebecca and Emma both become wary of Benjamin, as his words sound suspicious.
 'What was that all about?' Rebecca groans.
 'You know, I've got a bad feeling about something,' Emma suspects.
 'Don't give anything away, just act natural,' Rebecca warns.
 'Right,' Emma agrees.
 Back downstairs, almost everyone gets tucking into the buffet and Ted Sumner flirtingly smiles at Bethany, as she and Harry share a joke and Brad Hayes starts chatting up Clara. Benjamin stands next to Chris on the buffet line and gives him a nudge, as he spots Emma and Rebecca re- entering the dining area.
 'I almost caught them red handed darling,' Benjamin whispers.
 'What do you mean?' Chris worries.
 'If I had been five minutes later, I could have caught them butt naked,' Benjamin informs.

 Around 20:25 p.m., A few of the guests are getting drunk and getting into a Dancing mood. Bethany notices Charlotte has gone outside for fresh air and confronts her, wondering if she has got to grips with the gruesome death of Glenda Robinson, which happened thirteen days previous. Charlotte tells Bethany, that it will take time, as she is not happy in herself and that she is putting on a brave face for her husband and daughter and that they went up to visit James grave the day before. Bethany figures that Charlotte won't open up, about what really happened in Hex-Ville, but will Charlotte crack? Bethany and Charlotte head back in, as Deloris decides to play spin the bottle and, which two spins it lands on, they must dance to a song together.
 'I hope, I'm dancing with Rebecca's Aunt,' Brad prays, feeling horny.
 'I hope I'm dancing with my colleagues wife,' Ted adds.
 Benjamin heard what Ted said and gives him an aggressive stare and Ted wonders, what Benjamin is staring at? Rebecca stands next to her mother Clara and gestures that Brad, seems desperate to get into her knickers.
 'If he wants them, he can choke on them,' Clara rolls her eyes. 'Horny Bastard.'
 'Let's hope, he doesn't get spun into dancing with Dad, with a hard on, while staring at you at the same time,' Rebecca laughs.
 Both women laugh hysterically, as Bethany jealously watches. Deloris spins the first bottle and it lands on Harry. The bottle is spun again and it lands on Rebecca.
 'Aw, sweet a dance between father and daughter,' Elaina claps.
 Bethany and Clara's expressions, show they know that Rebecca isn't Harry's daughter. Deloris presses play on the CD player and Jermaine Stewarts, 'We Don't Have to Take Our clothes Off,' begins to play.
 The song reminds Harry of Tina, as it was one of her favourite Eighties songs, as she informed Harry of this in, Season Two's 'Retro,' when they went to a fancy dress and music party at James Fletchers, where famous artists made guest appearances as themselves, entertaining the guests.
 During the dance, Harry opens up to the girl, he thinks has been his daughter for fifteen months.
 'Your mother, loved this song.'

 Brad sneakily moves over towards Clara and asks her if she'd like to get together sometime with him? Ted watches Brad's attempts to seduce Clara and he whispers in her ear. Clara giggles and places her drink down and drags him out by his tie. Brad gives the thumbs up to Ted, as he thinks he's getting laid. Harry and Rebecca continue their, dance when only moments later, Ted notices Brad staggering out the front door, holding his nuts in pain. Clara then walks back into the dining room, without so much as a care for the man, that tried to take her to bed. Benjamin senses what Clara had done to Brad, who is too embarrassed to re- enter the party for the time being. Benjamin laughs and looks at Ted at the same time.
 'I'd like to see you try that with Mrs Wilson,' Benjamin sniggers. 'You'll be lucky to walk out that door with your balls in tact.'
 Harry and Rebecca finish their dance and Deloris spins the bottle again. It lands on Bethany. Bethany steps into the circle. Deloris spins it again and it lands on Benjamin. Bethany winks at him, making him blush.
 'Get on this dance floor my blue eyed boy and boogie,' Bethany orders.
 'No, funny stuff now, Beth,' Deloris jokingly warns. 'Last time I checked he was my blued eyed boy.'
 Rebecca looks around and notices Brad isn't in the room, and sees Ted standing alone.
 'Where's the sex maniac?' Rebecca queries.
 'He didn't have the balls to go through with it,' Clara said.
 Deloris puts another random CD in the Hi Fi and the 1964 song, 'Glad All Over,' by the Dave Clark Five begins to play.
 Bethany starts teasing Benjamin with a sexy dance and he replies, by pulling her closer to him and they get into the rhythm of the song. Harry starts to feel embarrassed, yet Deloris finds it extremely sexy to watch. Bethany wraps her arms around the fisherman, who laughs it up.
 'He's not too shy is he?' Clara notices.
 Rebecca does not take her eyes of the two dancers once, as she has a suspicious feeling.
 'No, he's not,' Rebecca whispers. 'It's all clear now.'
 'What do you mean?' Clara wonders.
 'Nothing,' Rebecca assures her mother.
 Charlotte stands beside her daughter, as she watches uncomfortably at Bethany and Benjamin's dance moves.
 'He's no Patrick Swayze is he?' Charlotte adds.
 'Is that a tone of jealousy Mother?' Deloris teases.
 'Absolutely not,' Charlotte refuses to admit. 'I mean look, dancing like that, in front of you, and Bethany in front of her husband. Where's the consideration?'
 'It's a party Momma, not a brothel,' Deloris argues.
 'I'm just saying what is,' Charlotte points out.
 'Momma? It's nice to see you looking better,' Deloris smiles, kissing her on the cheek. 'I want this to be the best Christmas ever.'
 'Me too,' Charlotte agrees.
 Deloris hugs her mother and smiles at her Dad, Dominic, who is happy to see Mother and Daughter having a bond. Looking over Deloris shoulder, Charlotte catches Bethany giving her a smug look as she continues to dance with Benjamin. Emma attempts to hold Chris's hand, but he pulls away and tells her he is getting another drink, and Benjamin spots how uncomfortable he is with his wife. Emma wanders over to Rebecca and pulls her aside
 'Something's not right,' Emma worries.
 'What is it?' Rebecca asks.
 'Chris is pulling away from me again,' Emma explains. 'I think he suspects something.'
 Rebecca puts both arms on Emma's shoulders, as Emma's eyes fill with tears.
 'Get a hold of yourself,' Rebecca advises. 'How could he know?'
 'Elaina maybe,' Emma suspects. 'But, if she did tell him, then she's putting us all in danger, with Chris's threats to expose Eric Lances true identity and that man is extremely dangerous.'
 'If it is true, then we have to find out, how he's come to know about our one time passion,' Rebecca says.
 'Rebecca, I'm scared,' Emma panics.
 'Don't worry, I got your back,' Rebecca promises.
 Benjamin glares at the two women, after he and Bethany finish their dance. Elaina sees how secretive Rebecca and Emma are trying to be. The girls mingle into the party again. Bethany flirtingly grabs Benjamin by the face and plants a kiss on his lips, winks at him and taps his nose with her finger. Deloris smacks his bum.
 'Hey, you, I thought you only had eyes for me.'
 Deloris spins the bottle twice again and it lands on Rebecca and Emma. The two women are put firmly on the spot and Emma sees how uncomfortable Chris is and Benjamin is almost giving her evils. Rebecca wonders what the facial expression all about?
 'Is there a problem Benji?' Rebecca questions.
 'Benji? What am I a f***** dog now?' Benjamin sarcastically laughs.
 'Cmon Rebecca and Emma!!' Deloris tries to encourage onto the dance floor, holding up a CD. 'I've got 'It Must've Been Love,' by Roxette.'
 'Chris, I'd like to go home now, please,' Emma tries to encourage.
 Benjamin and Chris look into each others eyes, knowing what they know about Rebecca and Emma's feelings for each other and yet, Chris and Benjamin haven't been angels themselves. Benjamin knows his true feelings lie with Chris and no longer with Deloris, but how does Chris feel? Also, are Rebecca and Emma still in love? And are Emma and Chris still in love with each other? Neither one wants to give the game away....yet, but Eric Lance may just interrupt the two way, love affairs, with his hiring of a private investigation of Elaina and Chris. Chris agrees to be driven home by Emma and Emma bids a fond farewell to Rebecca and Emma tells Rebecca she has left a present for her under the tree. Harry is disappointed that his nephew is leaving so early, but Chris insists that it is getting late. Elaina stands close to Emma and they both make eye contact.
 'I'm fine,' Emma assures her in a silent voice. 'We'll talk soon.'
 Emma and Chris leave, and Chris looks back at Benjamin. Benjamin stares with desperate affection as both Chris and Emma exit the party and prepare for their two hour journey back to Manhattan. Rebecca turns back Benjamin in disgust.
 'Benjamin, you've been acting strange tonight, are you alright?' Rebecca pushes for an answer.
 Benjamin places his drink down and heads outside.
 'I'm getting some fresh air,' Benjamin claims, as Deloris tends to Charlotte, who is throwing up all over the carpet. Ted drunkenly staggers up to Harry and rests on his shoulder.
 'Can I f*** your wife?' Ted slurs.
 'Excuse me?' Harry sarcastically smiles in shock and dismay.
 'C'mon, I'll pay you instead of her,' Ted provokes.
 It doesn't take much to wind, Harry up and he punches Ted's lights out. Everybody jumps and Dominic restrains Harry, a shocked and woozy Ted staggers to his feet and leaves the party. Elaina insists on cleaning up the messy floor of Charlottes vomit and Ted's bloody lip stains. Rebecca take the weight off her feet and sits down and turns and notices Clara is not in the room.

 

Clara is over looking the moonlit night sky Atlantic Ocean from the lighthouse, when Bethany startles her.
 'Beautiful isn't it?' Bethany interrupts.
 'Oh, you startled me,' Clara jumps.
 'Been quite a night hasn't it?' Bethany sighs.
 'Well, it's been interesting,' Clara acknowledges.
 'These last few days have been interesting,' Bethany figures. 'I don't know what's more shocking, you showing up in Rebecca's life after twenty two years, or you finding out that that she looks up to me.....in that way.'
 'Look, if you're worried about me telling Harry, about either of those things, you don't have to worry, all I'm interested in, is having a relationship with my baby girl,' Clara assures Bethany.
 'Sorry to burst your hopes Clara, but Rebecca is very naïve and her promises to you are a big mistake if I may add,' Bethany stuns.
 'Do you wanna run that one by me again, Beth?' Clara gasps.
 'I'll make it simple for you,' Bethany continues. 'We can't trust you.'
 'Do you always do her talking for her?' Clara groans.
 'Rebecca doesn't want you here Clara and neither do I,' Bethany claims. 'You could become a burden and all it takes is a slip up and you could ruin her.'
 'I came here with good intent. I intend to love and protect Rebecca,' Clara argues.
 'So do I,' Bethany states, holding a cheque of $30,000. 'Do yourself a favour and make it easy on Rebecca. If you truly love her, you leave tonight.'
 'And what if I don't?'
 'Then you'll only be hurting yourself.'
 'Are you threatening me?'
 'No, I'm jut doing the girl I love and youa favour that's all,' Bethany giggles.'

Clara is stunned, shocked and hurt by Bethany's gesture. Bethany is bribing Clara, with a thirty thousand dollar cheque, to get out of Rebecca's life, as she fears that one day, Clara will reveal Rebecca's true identity to Harry, but Clara insists that she only ever wanted to find her daughter to have a close relationship with her. Clara thinks that Bethany is jealous of her bonding with Rebecca and is using Rebecca's secret as an excuse, as well as her sexual encounters with her. Bethany laughs this off, as she thinks that Clara will soon turn on Rebecca.
 'You are a selfish bitch,' Clara curses.
 'Yeah, course I am,' Bethany laughs.
 'There is nothing on this Earth, that will ever make me walk away from my daughter,' Clara argues. 'And not even you can blackmail me or bribe me to change my mind. If I didn't know any better, you're the one with the issues.'
 'Do yourself a favour Clara honey, take the cheque and get out while you still can,' Bethany demands.
 'No,' Clara refuses. 'Go to hell.'
 Suddenly, Rebecca appears on the staircase and see's Bethany attempting to hand Clara a cheque. Rebecca is horrified by her step mothers attempts to rid her mother out of her life. Even though, Clara is aware that Rebecca was never Harry or Tina's daughter, but hers, Rebecca has warmed to Clara. But it seems Bethany is deciding to put a damper on the promise.
 'Bethany, what are you doing?' Rebecca gasps.
 'Trying to make your life easier,' Bethany claims.
 'Don't listen to her Rebecca, she's trying to break our relationship, because she's jealous,' Clara tries to convince.
 'Bullshit, Clara will turn on you Rebecca, because she's jealous of what you have and because her life is f***** up,' Bethany urges, Rebecca to listen.
 'I didn't spend months of investigations and searches to destroy the daughter I longed for, just because you changed your identity to remind yourself of your foster sister,' Clara said.
 'How well do you know this woman, Becky, darling?' Bethany tries to manipulate. 'She gave you away because she didn't want, not because she was young. Harry is your father and I'm the closest to a mother you have left.'
 'Oh, you have a fine definition of claiming to be a mother to my daughter,' Clara screams. 'I didn't realize seduction was in that category.'
 'Just shut up, shut up, the both of you!!' Rebecca yells, bursting into tears. 'Clara? Bethany's right. I hardly know you. I can't lie to my Dad, every day, while you're in my life. It will scare me, because if he ever found out, I could lose his love forever.'
 'I can't walk away after all we've been through, these last few days,' Clara tearfully replies, moving slowly towards Rebecca.
 'To be honest, I think I've been in denial and it wouldn't be fair to lead you on,' Rebecca whispers. 'But, I think it would be best if you left right away.
 Clara is hurt by Rebecca's choice and it breaks her heart. Clara cries out loudly and grabs Rebecca's hands in an attempt to pull her close, but Rebecca lets go. Bethany doesn't seem to show any remorse for Clara and it's clear that Bethany is hateful in Clara's eyes. Clara stares at Bethany with hate.
 'You are a cruel and vindictive woman,' Clara rages. 'You're manipulating my daughter and brain washing her into thinking, I'm using her to hurt her. It's all lies. I've done nothing to you, but I may just change my mind.'
 Clara is about to attack Bethany, when Rebecca blocks her path.
 'I'm sorry, but you should never have come here,' Rebecca sighs. 'I'd like you to pack your stuff and to never come back.'
 Rebecca removes her gold bracelet and places it back into Clara's hand, who stands dejected and rejected at the same time. Clara is cruelly dismissed. Clara senses that Rebecca has spent so much time in the presence of Bethany, Bethany has had a control over her, but now Clara has been kicked into touch, she has nothing to lose.
 'So this is what you want?' Clara wipes her tears. 'Well, if it is, then I have nothing to lose.'
 'What do you mean?' Rebecca wonders.
 'You know damn well, what I mean,' Clara groans.
 Clara immediately hurries down the lighthouse staircase. Bethany and Rebecca panic, when it seems Clara is going to tell all to Harry and the two women chase after her. Clara exits the lighthouse at a pace and rushes towards the main house in tatters. Clara pushes open the front door, as Abraham is tending to Harry's bruised hand, after he thumped Ted. Clara marches into the dining room and confronts Harry. Everybody becomes aware of Clara's traumatic appearance. Clara stares at Harry momentarily, as both Rebecca and Bethany rush in. Harry waits for Clara to speak, but she cannot bring herself to tell him about Rebecca's secret and she turns to her daughter momentarily, knowing she will be hurting her. Clara moves away and rushes upstairs to pack.
 'What's going on?' Harry asks confused.
 'It's looks like, Clara won't be staying with us any longer,' Bethany claims. 'She thinks she doesn't fit in.'
 'That's ridiculous,' Harry figures. 'I'm gonna talk to her.'
 'No, Harry,' Bethany obstructs. 'You can't repair this.'
 Bethany heads up the stair case. Rebecca stands watching her mother pack in tears. Bethany comes behind her and places her hand on her shoulder.
 'You made the right choice,' Bethany whispers.
 Bethany heads into the bedroom and sits down. She picks up her cell phone and begins to send a message to somebody anonymous.

 

About ten minutes later, Elaina and Abraham begin their journey back to the city to fetch their son, Andy. Deloris and Dominic are then seen helping a drunk Charlotte out of the house and to the car.
 'Tell you had a good time tonight,' Dominic adds.
 'And nobody died this time,' Charlotte slurs.
 Bethany looks at Charlotte in dismay, referring to Glenda Robinson, but Deloris thinks she means her brother James.
 'C'mon Mom, lets get you home,' Deloris insists. Deloris looks around and sees Benjamin not in sight. 'Has anybody seen Benjamin?'
 'Maybe he went to get some air,' Bethany thinks.
 The Kings thank the Wilsons for the party and they head on home, back into town. Clara is then seen dragging her suitcase out and throwing it into the trunk of her car. Harry knows that Clara has been drinking as she jumps into the car. Harry marches up to her.
 'What's this all about?' Harry asks.
 'Something, that can't be fixed,' Clara claims. 'I'll let Rebecca fill you in.'
 'I can't let you leave, you've been drinking, you could hurt yourself,' Harry informs Clara.
 'To be honest, it would be a blessing, ' Clara sobs.
 Clara hits the accelerator and speeds off knocking Harry to the floor and almost mowing down Bethany. Harry manages to get to his feet, as Rebecca comes rushing out. Rebecca watches Clara speed off erratically and Harry tells her, that Clara could kill somebody as well as herself and insists on calling the police. Rebecca runs into the house and grabs the car keys and hops into the car and gives chase. Harry and Bethany scream for her to stop. Clara is having a breakdown at the wheel and cries her heart out. She never thought, her relationship with Rebecca would end like this. Bethany's cruelty has ended a promising future for both mother and daughter. Clara swerves from side to side and her vision starts to blur. Then on the quiet single highway, where there's woodland on either side, Clara spots what looks like the long haired blonde Francis Bay killer who's face is obscured from view, stood in a black cloak and high heeled boots. The murderer who put both Linda Perry and Steven Whittaker to the sword, purposely throws spikes into the road, making Clara run over them, piercing the tyres and sending the car spiralling out control and turning over and crashing down an embankment and of which comes to a shuddering halt, after crashing into a tree. The remains overturned and Clara possibly injured inside.

Clara Barton is trapped inside her wrecked, overturned car, which has been halted by a tree, just down a wooded embankment. She is partially conscious, but her vision is blurry, as it's dark and she is in a woodland. She has a gash on her forehead and it appears she has broken her arm and leg. Her voice and breathing is rather shallow and almost everything is silent, apart from owls in the woodland. Clara begins to panic, as her left arm is trapped, between the dash board and the pushed in steering wheel. With her partial vision, it doesn't help her in anything, as she attempts to set herself free. About half a mile away, Rebecca in an attempt to find her mother, comes to an intersection after exiting the Bay. She then spots tyres marks on the road, headed left and she speeds off left, hoping that it will eventually lead her to Clara, who had forced out, more by Bethany than Rebecca. Clara in agony, attempts to prise her trapped hand from between the dashboard and steering. In tears, pain and a bit of manoeuvring , Clara manages to free her hand. But, her vehicle is still overturned and almost certainly the blood will be rushing to her head. How long will it be before Rebecca can find her? Clara reaches out to the door handle and pushes it open and reaching for the ground out, Clara cries out, with the sharp pain of her legs, which are fractured from the impacts she took, when the car rolled down the hill. Without, warning she instantly falls out of the unturned car and into the woodland and it makes the severity of her pain even worse and possibly her injuries. Clara is slowly hyperventilating and finds it hard to calm herself. She looks up to the night sky and can just about spot the full moon, between the trees. Not only has she been mentally scarred, she has been physically attacked.
 'Somebody please help me,' Clara attempts to call, with her tiring voice.
 A car can then be heard coming down the road from a distance, and Clara hoping somebody will realize she is injured and they will take her to hospital. Clara cannot move further away from car, than she can. All Clara can do is wait in hope. Suddenly, footsteps can be heard moving towards her, and with her being in a vulnerable state, Clara cannot be sure who is coming towards her.
 'Who's there?' Clara wonders, as her vision is still blurred.
 Nobody answers. Above the embankment, Rebecca screeches to a halt, after spotting tyres marks in a circular form and then some in a straight line. Rebecca exits her vehicle and rushes to the gutter and picks up a piece of Clara's tyre of which was blown out purposely by the Francis Bay killer.
 'Over here,' Clara calls out to the distant lights of Rebecca's car. Clara is unaware it's Rebecca and her voice is still not loud enough to distract her only child. Stepping in to block the headlights, is the tall shadowed female figure, of the Francis Bay killer, who's face cannot be seen. Grasping, it's machete, Clara fears the worst. Suddenly, Clara hears Rebecca's voice in the distance.
 'Mom?!' Rebecca calls. 'Ma Ma, where are you?'
 Knowing that her daughter is calling out to her and fearing that her life could be ended, Clara attempts to call out in desperation with her wailing voice.
 'Baby, I'm down here,' Clara cries out, helplessly, trying to crawl away. 'She's trying to kill me.' Clara looks up to the murderer and the figure moves over her injured body. The killer places the machete near it's feet and kneels beside Clara, who is shivering and fearful of her life. Clara looks back in the direction of Rebecca's car and through her regaining sight, can spot Rebecca's shadow, who still calls out to her mother. Clara reaches out to her daughter, who still cannot spot her Mom anywhere. Still reaching out and tears profusely running down her face, as well as the blood, Clara is now at the mercy, of a violent and merciless killer. Wearing gloves, the murderer covers Clara's mouth and nose and squeezes tight. Clara doesn't have the energy to fight. All she can do is reach out to Rebecca, who couldn't hear her calls. Slowly, Clara's loses her fight and her next few breaths are cruelly and horrifyingly draw to a close. The Francis Bay killer has claimed it's next victim. Moments later, Rebecca is seen running through the darkness of the woodland in an attempt to find Clara. Eventually, she does, but instead she finds her, not alive anymore. The Francis Bay killer has absconded out of sight and Rebecca is in tatters. Rebecca holds Clara in her arms and for a few moments, Rebecca puts herself in denial, that her mother has just died. But, the truth is, her mother, Clara has passed away, not only passed away, but is another victim of the Bay killers sick attacks. Holding Clara close in the darkness, Rebecca breaks down.
 'Please God, no, not my Ma Ma no,' Rebecca grieves. 'Please Ma Ma, wake up, I love you. I'm so sorry....no...No.......NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!'
 Rebecca's screams echo into the night sky.

Monday 30th December 2002, Francis Bay. The Wilsons are headed to Colorado, Clara's home state to bury her. Harry insists on trying to reach, Clara's supposed sister in Australia, who is supposed be Rebecca's adopted mother..............the adopted mother of Rebecca and sister to the now deceased Clara that DOESN'T exist. It was made up, to cover up Rebecca's true identity. Bethany tells Rebecca she doesn't have to go to the funeral if she doesn't want to, but Rebecca insists, she has to, as she feels responsible for allowing Clara to leave. There is no sign of any guilt from Bethany and Rebecca lies to Harry, that Clara and her sister hated each other and that her death, won't even bring them closer together. Rebecca heads outside and sits on the front lawn swing, before they head to the airport. In the distance, Emma can be seen talking to Chris and Emma waves over to Rebecca, who waves back. Benjamin , then sits beside Rebecca in an attempt to comfort her.
 'How you holding up?' Benjamin asks.
 'Not so good,' Rebecca sighs.
 'Look, maybe your Dad and Bethany are right, maybe this trip is too much for you, Clara would understand,' Benjamin explains.
 'I feel so guilty,' Rebecca cries. 'My Mo...............my Aunt wouldn't be dead, if I hadn't forced her away.'
 'Oh, you shouldn't feel responsible for your Aunt Clara's death,' Benjamin answers. 'If you want to talk about it, I may be able to help.'
 'Do you know who killed her?' Rebecca snaps, looking aggressively at Benjamin.
 'No,' Benjamin replies, hesitating for a mere second.
 'Then you can't help can you?' Rebecca tearfully says.
 'It was an accident, she hit something sharp and her tyres blew and she died from her injuries,' Benjamin suspects.
 'Yeah............whatever,' Rebecca whispers.

Tuesday 31st December 2002, 23:59 p.m, Francis Bay, Rebecca is sat naked in her shower grasping a straight razor and is wanting to cut her wrist to end the suffering. She keeps hesitating. Then she rests the blade firmly on the skin and is about to end it all, when Bethany opens the shower door. Bethany is horrified by what she is witnessing. Before, Rebecca makes any attempt to end her life, Bethany restrains her. Rebecca kicks out screaming. Bethany calls out for help.
 'Harry! Harry!' Bethany screams out.
 Harry bursts in to tend to the woman who thinks is his daughter and comforts her.
 The camera pans out of the Wilson household and to the lighthouse, where outside stands the Francis Bay killer. Fireworks are then seen soaring into the midnight sky, as the year 2003 makes an entrance.

 

 Note: This was officially Amy Adams final Guest Appearance as Clara Barton. Clara was apparently the Francis Bay killers 3rd victim. (Linda Perry, Steven Whittaker and Clara).

Thursday 2nd January 2003. Parking Lot, near Route 495, Just outside Melville, Long Island. Bethany is waiting for an unexpected meeting, with Eric Lance, who claims, he has something of interest to her, which could keep both their secrets in tact. But, what is Eric really up to? Arriving from the west, Eric slowly manoeuvres into the parking lot and parks beside Bethany. Bethany rolls down her side window, as Eric removes his sunglasses. He kind of gives Bethany a smug look, but Bethany is unnerved by Eric's expression.
 'Last time, I saw you was at the September 11th memorial last year, we had an interesting conversation didn't we?' Eric reminds Bethany.
 'And I thought we agreed to go our separate ways,' Bethany adds. 'Now, is not the best time, my step daughter is on suicide watch.'
 'Oh yes, I heard about that, some sort of distant relative of Rebecca's,' Eric figures. 'Must've been really close if she attempts to take her life.'
 'Was it about Rebecca, you wanted to talk to me about or did you just want to make light conversation?' Bethany groans. 'I have driven over fifty miles to keep you happy.
 'To be honest, Rebecca does have some sort of connection to what I'm about to show you, but not directly, with what I'm about to show you,' Eric confirms.
 'Oh, OK, Hank, you have my attention,' Bethany sarcastically acknowledges.
 Eric takes out a large envelope and hands it to Bethany. Bethany opens it and it reveals a photograph of Chris and Benjamin getting intimately involved. Bethany's face drops at her discovery. She glances back to Eric.
 'Where's you get these?' Bethany asks.
 'Chris and his Editor know of my true identity and in an attempt to keep them off my back, I blackmailed, Elaina Carlisle that if she continues to pursue her case against me and doesn't encourage, Chris his continued then I would reveal Emma and Rebecca's affair to him. Emma seems desperate to rely on Mrs Carlisle, but this latest discovery, gives me the hint that he knows of his wife's deception. And I believe you recognize the other male in the picture.'
 'It would be completely foolish of me not to,' Bethany sighs. 'I suppose this is where I come in?'
 'Help me out here Beth,' Eric pleads. 'Otherwise I may end up doing something I may regret yet again. I've tried to avoid using the darkness within me. Because if Chris talks, I won't be the only one before Judge and Jury. And that's not a threat Beth, that's a promise. That would probably put runaway Carla out of options. I'll be in touch.'
 Eric reverses back and drives out of the parking Lot and back to Manhattan. Bethany sits in dismay and frustration while looking at the photograph of Christopher and Benjamin. But, why has Eric brought Bethany into the equation?

Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca awakes from her sedation in mid afternoon to find, visitor and friend, Emma by her side. Rebecca's shock attempted suicide had left everyone close to her rattled. Clara's death left everyone shocked, but nobody realized the extent it would drive Rebecca to. To those who don't know Rebecca's true identity, Clara was seen as Rebecca's adopted Aunt, but Rebecca herself and step mother Bethany, are the only ones that knew the truth. Rebecca was never Harry and Tina's daughter, she was never a Wilson. Clara was her birth mother, who gave her up for adoption as a baby and years later, Rebecca stole the identity of a supposed dead girl, who was in fact the daughter that Tina was forced to give away at birth. All Rebecca wanted out of life was love and stability, but it's been a long journey of complication and heartache for Rebecca. Rebecca is happy that Emma had been keeping a vigil eye on her and reaches out to her best friend, who holds her hand.
 'Hi,' Emma smiles.
 'Hi,' Rebecca answers, feeling woozy from the drugs.
 'You had us all worried,' Emma points out. 'I'm glad you're alright.'
 'I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you all,' Rebecca whispers. 'I think I scared myself.'
 'We understand how much Clara's death effected you, she seemed like a nice lady,' Emma says.
 'Yes, she was,' Rebecca agrees. 'How long have I been out?'
 'In and out of consciousness for a day and a half,' Emma informs. 'Wait there I'll fetch your Dad, he's downstairs.'
 Rebecca reaches out and stops Emma from leaving.
 'Wait,' Rebecca calls. 'I need a hug.'
 Emma holds Rebecca tight in her arms and Rebecca bursts into tears.
 'We're all here for you Rebecca,' Emma insists. 'We love you.'
 'That's nice to know,' Rebecca warms to Emma heart felt words.
 'Oh by the way, Happy New Year,' Emma adds.
 'It can only get better,' Rebecca said.

 Minutes later, Emma descends the staircase and tells Harry, that Rebecca is awake. He hurries up to see her. Downstairs with flowers are Benjamin, Deloris and Christopher. Deloris has brought flowers for Rebecca, who is still in shock that her friend and colleague tried to end her own life.
 'How is she?' Deloris wonders.
 'I think she's still in shock,' Emma figures. 'Meeting Clara after so long and then losing her the way she did, Rebecca must've had a mental breakdown. Thing is she lost her mother, Tina in the September 11th attacks. She never got to meet her.'
 'That's terrible,' Benjamin acknowledges. 'Those memories must still have an effect on her and it became too much to bare, losing her aunt Clara.'
 'Did they put it down to an accident then?' Chris queries.
 'From what I heard, Clara was drunk when she left and was driving erratically, she hit something and crashed. Her injuries were so severe, she died, while escaping her car,' Benjamin shrugs.
 'Why do you know something we don't?' Emma asks.
 'No, why do you think that?' Chris denies.
 'Because if you're thinking about placing gossip and bullshit into your f***** newspaper, don't,' Emma snaps. 'There's a poor girl in turmoil upstairs. Show some decency.'
 Emma storms into the kitchen and both Chris and Benjamin glance at one another.

Harry heads in to comfort his grief stricken daughter or the girl who he thinks is his daughter, who had been sedated following an attempted suicide, on New Years Eve. Harry is completely oblivious to what Rebecca conceals, but what she hides, isn't as worse, as what he may discover about his second wife, Bethany, who has kept Rebecca's identity to herself. All ever Rebecca ever wanted was love, but she has had this tenancy to get her into awkward situations, Having a one night stand with Emma, falling in love with Linda Perry who was a vampire who was then killed by the Francis Bay killer, manipulated into on/off sex with her stepmother Bethany, being tracked down by her birth mother, Clara Barton and then losing her, due to being another victim to the unidentified psycho Bay killer.
 Harry sits beside Rebecca and holds her hand, she looks up and holds it together. Rebecca feels humiliated and embarrassed.
 'I'm so sorry, Daddy,' Rebecca whispers. 'I didn't mean to scare you.'
 'I figured you scared yourself too,' Harry says. 'You had my heart in my throat.'
 'God knows, what might have happened if Bethany hadn't found me,' Rebecca sighs.
 'Well it didn't, and thank God,' Harry replies, with relief.
 'I don't know what came over me, Clara's death hit me like a ton of bricks . She was so nice,' Rebecca adds. 'All I can say, I wasn't thinking straight and it was just a moment of madness.'
 'The mind has ways of trying to make somebody act, when they don't want to,' Harry claims. 'But, some of the events in the last sixteen months, haven't been too kind to us have they? Losing your mother the day of the attacks on the city, Jeff with his psychotic break and his death, the Linda Perry attack and now your aunt Clara, it has been too much to handle in the short time we've been together as a family. I can understand, with the force you've took..........But, all we can hope for is to move forward.'
 'You know, we have never talked about my mom,' Rebecca points out.
 'No, we haven't have we,' Harry agrees. 'Just haven't had the right moment I guess.'
 'Bethany?' Rebecca suspects.
 'Maybe,' Harry shrugs.
 'If you're worried, don't be,' Rebecca insists. 'It's just you and me.'
 'OK,' Harry smiles. 'What would you like to know, about your Ma Ma, Tina?'
 'What was she like?' Rebecca asks.
 'She was amazing, the most beautiful, heart warming, outspoken, sensitive and loving person to be in my life,' Harry explains.
 'Nothing wrong with sensitive,' Rebecca laughs a little. 'The best ones always turn out that way.'
 'Yeah,' Harry laughs.
 'When did you first meet?' Rebecca queries.
 'Second Grade,' Harry informs. 'We only exchanged conversation a couple of times in the first year, then it wasn't until we were nine, we started to become friends. At her and your uncle Greg's 10th birthday party, I gave her pretend engagement ring and everyone laughed apart from Tina. I think she knew how I felt about her then.'
 'That's really sweet Daddy.'
 'It wouldn't be 'til, seven years later, we finally admitted our love for each other. Took me us ten years, but we got there..............briefly.'
 'I guess this is the part, which started your years in exile from each other?'
 Harry grasps Rebecca's hand, as he remembers Tina, back at High School.

 


Monday 8th January 1979, Hex-Ville High School.

Harry and Tina arrive from their holidays for their final few months of graduation, hand in hand. They smile lovingly glances at one another.
'I've got butterflies in my stomach,' Harry informs.
'Me too,' Tina answers.
'I've waited ten years for this moment,' Harry sighs. 'To say I how much, I Love you.'
'I love you too, handsome,' Tina grins, placing a passionate kiss on Harry's lips. 'And my parents have to like it or lump it, especially my dad.'
From a distance, Bethany jealously looks on, as the smitten lovers head on inside. Off the school bus, gets Greg feeling almost feeling lonely and left out. Dominic walks up to Bethany and asks her if she would like him to walk her to class?
'We're not in the same registry class,' Bethany sarcastically replies, before walking off.
Since the lab explosion, Dominic expected Bethany to see him as her hero, considering he pulled her out of the flames, but there seems to be little appreciation and acknowledgement of his heroics. Bethany still has her sights set on Harry.

A little while later, Harry bumps into Dominic and tells him that he was a hero for saving Bethany's life. Dominic appreciates Harry's gesture, and returns the same gesture. But, Dominic thinks he doesn't feel like one.
'How come?' Harry frowns.
'Well, Tina saw you as her night in shining armour. Bethany wished it hadn't been me,' Dominic whispers, upset.
'You got your girl man, I didn't. Sorry, if I feel envious of you Harry.'
After exchanging more conversation Harry heads of to English Class. As Dominic opens his locker, the Mason sisters come round the corner and Dominic can't help notice, Fallon wearing a low cut blouse, which makes her breast look big. Dominic keeps glancing back and forth as he reaches books in his locker. Fallon catches Dominic staring and she tells Felicity. Both girls are shocked and Dominic pretends not to look.
'Hey, Dom King?! Felicity snaps. 'What's your glitch? Why do you keep staring at my sisters tits?'
'Um...........I don't know,' Dominic attempts at playing dumb.
'F***** pervert,' Fallon moans, as she and his twin sister walk off.
Greg then stands next Dominic as they walk off.
'Would you like to join the outcast club, King?' Greg asks. 'I'll buy you a beer sometime.'

Mid afternoon, Jonathan Wilson has drawn out his plans on the next part of his construction set, when one of his co-workers, turns out to be Barry in disguise. Jonathan feels uncomfortable.
'Don't worry boss, the next stash is safe, there's two thousand dollars for you in it,' Barry sniggers.
'You can't keep landing this on me,' Jonathan demands. 'Where have your anonymous buddies hidden it this time?'
'Here's a diagram, on where to find it,' Barry claims.
'Why can't they just hand the stash to you?' Jonathan grunts.
'Because, I'm under the police radar and I pay them not to ask questions, like I try to with you,' Barry bluntly states.
'Is there anyway you can be honest with me?' Jonathan pleads.
'Just be grateful, Harry could be on his way to college and success.'
'This money is criminal though. It could harm all my families future. I want to know please.' '
 'Once I tell you, you're part of a very big team and no going back. Deal?'
'Deal.'

 

 

Friday 12th January 1979, Hexville High School.

The High School football team are slowly improving, despite being 14-30 down. It has been one of the worst seasons for the 'Hex-Ville Terriers.' Tina cheers on the team and Harry, as Bethany sits feeling sorry for herself. The Mason twins walk on by and say their hello's to Harry, and they only do it in an attempt to irritate Tina, but Tina knows she has her man. From outside the gates, Hank Willis is watching and can see, Tina cheering on Harry and this make him feel, like he was nothing to her. His face turns red. '
'Harry, Harry, Harry,' Tina cheers on.
'Aren't you like supposed to be cheering on the whole team, not just your boyfriend?' Greg reminds his twin sibling.
'What are you talking about, he is the football team? Tina sarcastically replies.
'Jes' thanks a bunch, sis,' Greg groans.
Harry is in for a pass, and quarter back, Dominic King manages to throw it straight at an opposing players face and it bounces off his helmet and he goes to attack Dominic.
'You think that's funny asshole?' the opposing player bullies.
'It was an accident,' Dominic pleads.
The bully kicks Dominic to the floor and Greg intervenes.
'Just back off, tough guy,' Greg warns.
'What you gonna do Mcquire, get your father to sue my ass?' The bully tries to provoke.
Harry then enters the fold.
'How about you carry on with the game, instead of trying to assault one of our team players?' Harry insists.
'Of course, you have become the man of this joint recently, haven't you? Lucky bastard,' the bully player referring to Harry and Tina's relationship.
The Terriers resume play and Harry is on for another pass and is through for a touch down, but he then pulls up with a Torn muscle in his back leg and has to be removed from play.
Harry is in the locker room showers and is frustrated by his recent injury. Suddenly, he can hear footsteps and is shocked out of wits, when the Mason Twins attempt to seduce him in the showers completely naked.
'Would you like us to rub your leg muscles better sexy?' Fallon grins, as the two sisters step in.
'Um, last I checked this was the men's room,' Harry gasps, covering his manhood.
'We thought we could be of service to you,' Felicity smiles, as she puts her arm on Harry's shoulder.
'Look, you shouldn't be here,' Harry tries to explain. 'The football team will be back any minute.'
'So?' Fallon shrugs.
'They might get the wrong idea, Tina might get the wrong idea,' Harry panics.
 Harry continues to back away from the twins sexual advances and they leave, but insist it won't be the last time, they try. Harry sighs with relief. Exiting the locker room, in their towels, Oswald Johnson spots Felicity and asks her if she was looking for him.
'There is no us, Oz,' Felicity claims.
'Then what were you doing in there, whore?' Oswald snaps, grabbing her arm.
'Hey, you jerk, get your meat hooks off my sister,' Fallon yells, scratching his face.
'Harry Wilson, is more of a man, than you'll ever be. You and I, we're so history,' Felicity informs a devastated Oswald. The Masons storm off leaving Johnson seething and staring at the locker room.

On the way out of school, Harry realizes he's left his watch in the locker room and assures Tina he will meet her outside. Heading back in, he grabs his watch and catches a glimpse of a shotgun pointing at him through the mirror. Harry ducks and dives from several gun shots, fired at him and he manages to escape.

Harry's parents later, attend the school as a stunned and shaken Harry was the target of somebody, who obviously didn't like him very much. Bethany is also concerned for her crush and the Mason sisters are curious, to whom may have wanted to bring harm to Harry? Harry informs Mary and Jonathan, he didn't get the chance to see who was shooting at him, but he suspects it may have been Hank Willis, who was standing outside the school fence, while they were playing football. Jeff then enters the fray. '
I would consider, my friends, if I were you now big brother,' Harry adds.
'I'll have a word with him, but lets not jump to conclusions,' Jeff answers. '
Don't jump to conclusions?' Harry moans. 'In case it slipped your mind, you so called best buddy is a gangster, he's still very much upset that me and Tina are together and he's seeking his revenge. Unless I'm mistaken, then I can't think of anyone else, who would want me six feet under.'
'Harry, son, whoever did this, will face the consequences, I promise,' Jonathan insists.
Billy and Audrey arrive to take Tina home after hearing about the attempt on Harry's life. The Wilsons nor Mcquire's acknowledge each other, apart from Audrey and Mary who glance smiles at one another.
'You're not with my daughter five minutes, Wilson and already you're putting her in danger' Billy grunts.
'Hey, now wait a minute, my son has no enemies,' Jonathan steps in.
Albert Kray arrives to get info on the attempt on Harry's life. Jonathan and Billy continue to argue and Albert demands that both parents calm down. Billy queries Greg's whereabouts to Tina? Tina says he met up with Dominic King.

Jeff later meets Hank and grabs him by the scruff of his shirt and asks if he had anything to do with the attempt on his younger brothers life? Hank denies it, but it still hurts to see Tina with somebody else. Albert Kray demands to know if it was Hank, because he's worried it could jeopardize the concealing of stolen cars, as a low profile would be a better option. Hank assures him, he doesn't own a shotgun or acquired it from anywhere else.

Hours later, Jonathan Wilson checks the hiding place, where he hid the money and it's still safely tucked away. Jonathan then catches a glimpse of a note, put halfway through his back gate. He makes sure the coast is clear and reads it. "It's time, tomorrow, 7:45 P.M, Cabin in woods. Don't late."

 

 

Saturday 13th January 1979, NYC, Manhattan.

 About 260 Miles south of Hex-Ville, Greg Mcquire and Dominic King, have gone on a gallivanting weekend to get away from the Suburbs. Greg hands some hoodies cash, which he stole from his father, William, in order for him to get some booze. Dominic hasn't felt so free, but fears getting the third degree from his parents. Greg insists he live a little, as he intends to.

 Later on, Greg and Dominic are absolutely legless and Greg curses his father, as they sit near a lane. Greg thinks his father never loved him and was always favouring Tina, although he never blames her, but he's upset that his sibling has got too occupied with Harry and forgotten the bond between the twins. Dominic feels hurt, that Bethany feels nothing for him even after saving her from the lab fire. Greg assures Dominic, that there are plenty more fish in the sea. It starts to rain heavily Coming down the street is Frank Wilde and his twelve year old daughter, Helen. Frank calls out to a taxi cab, as they are in a rush to catch their next flight home back west and both Greg and Dominic drunkenly try to beat them to the taxi, but Greg ultimately and clumsily knocks his future wife, off her feet and into a puddle.
'You stupid Son Of A Bitch!!' Frank yells. 'What the hell do you think you're doing?!' '
'It wasn't my fault, she needs to look where she's f***** going,' Greg slurs. 'Little brat.' '

'You swear in front of my daughter again, I will be putting your finger up your ass, permanently,' Frank threats.
'Daddy they're drunk and badly dressed and they smell funny too,' Helen winces.
'Um, Greg, I think we should be going now,' Dominic encourages.
'Wait, a minute, I wanna see if this bitch's old man can put my finger in my ass, permanently,' Greg grunts, gulping down some vodka.
'No problem,' Frank grins.
Frank throws a punch at Greg and misses, but ends up putting Dominic on the floor instead. Twelve year old Helen wastes no time, by kicking Greg right where it hurts most and he collapses to the floor in agony.
'I kicked him in the balls Daddy, I kicked him in the balls,' Helen laughs.
'That's my girl,' Frank chuckles. 'Get in the cab sweetie, before we miss our plane. I don't think these two dummies will be going anywhere, anytime soon.'
'God help the woman who ends up marrying that asshole,' Helen said, as she gets into the cab with her father.
The Taxi drives away. Greg staggers to his feet and yells out to the cab. '
'Yeah, and get help the poor Bastard, who will have to put up with your running commentary!!'
Dominic slowly gets his vision back and Greg helps him to his feet and they stagger away.

 Outskirts Of Hex-Ville, Jonathan meets with Barry and introduces to his team. Barry informs Jon, that his team are informants to the project 'Gemini', who are studying Meta Human abilities at Area 51, out west. Jonathan laughs at this, and says that the whole thing has always been a myth to the world. Barry insists, that the supposed myth from out of space which began in 1901, is real and there have be re-occurring revelations, yet the government have had the project, permanently kept under wraps. Barry tells Jonathan that in order to make more money, they have had rocks stolen from Area 51 which contains a super substance and they have an affect on people, where significant changes occur. Jonathan suspects, they're using them as drugs, and then selling them as a trial, to see if they have some sort of affect on people and that's why Jonathan has been paid to conceal them, until Barry knows it's the right time to use them, as he is a former drug smuggler and is well known to the police. Barry pleads with Jonathan to join them and promises, that his name won't be mentioned to Area 51, but Barry makes it quick to inform Jonathan that the supplier to them, is Brad Morrison, Carla Morrison's father. Barry tells Jonathan, that his first job, is to aid in the capture of a girl who attends, Hexville High School, Rosaline Mack, who has the power to make her self invisible.
'No, thanks to your betrayal to project Gemini,' Jonathan adds. 'What will happen if I get caught?' '
'You don't mention us, or else,' Barry threats.
'Like that is it?' Jonathan sighs.
'Just remember where Harry's college funds are coming from, don't risk ending his future.'
 After exchanging more info, Jonathan leaves. From a distance, a photograph is again taken from an unknown spy.

The Mcquire's are going out of their minds with worry and put out a missing report on Greg. Harry says he will help in the search for him and Tina assists him. Audrey blames Billy for making him run away and Billy again storms off.

Jonathan returns home and Mary asks, where he'd got to? Jonathan lies and says he went for a quick beer.

 NYC, Dominic and Greg stagger through Times Square drunk. Dominic then spots 18 year old, Charlotte Matthews attempt to cross the crosswalk, when suddenly it turns green for traffic. Dominic rushes to stop Charlotte from cross as an oncoming vehicle is speeding towards her. Charlotte notices the car coming at her and she backs off, just as Dominic slips off the pavement trying to be a hero and gets mowed down himself. Dominic lies in pain and Greg laughs at him, but Charlotte is concerned for his wellbeing. 'Oh my God, somebody call an ambulance. Are you OK?' Charlotte worries.
'Are you my guardian angel?' Dominic groans, managing to get his sight back.
'Just relax, the paramedics are on their way,' Charlotte demands. 'That wasn't very clever now was it? You could have gotten yourself killed.' '
'No shit.'
Dominic drunkenly smiles at Charlotte.
'I'm Charlotte.'
'I'm pissed.'


Hex-Ville, the Mcquire's breathe a sigh of relief when Greg calls home and Billy tells Audrey he will pick him up from the city and will have a serious chat with him, but Tina prefers herself and Harry to collect him from the Big Apple, just so Billy can calm down. Billy agrees, but thinks he won't calm down. On the way to Harry's car, Hank approaches him and swears he wasn't the one who tried to kill him at the school. So who was it? Billy receives a secret call from an anonymous tip.

Bethany sits eating popcorn, watching the opening credits to the second season of 'The Incredible Hulk,' starring Bill Bixby.

 


Saturday 4th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Benjamin Bates is sat watching the same opening credits in his cabin house, eating popcorn, as the show is repeated on cable.

 

 

Sunday 5th January 2003, Downtown Brooklyn. Chris and Benjamin meet at a bar, but Chris insists he cannot be too long away from Emma, as he needs to draw suspicion away from her and it's a non working day. Benjamin states that he desperately needs to talk with Chris and that he thinks it's time, they come clean sooner, rather than later. Benjamin reaches out to his lover, but Chris draws back, as some people begin to glare at them, and that Chris's face is familiar to a few locals, as he works for a big newspaper.
 'It's gonna take time, Chris whispers.
 'We've had time, I can't wait any longer,' Benjamin adds. 'I love you, I want us to be together.'
 'I know,' Chris nods.
 'Emma doesn't deserve you Christopher,' Benjamin continues. 'Let her down gently, before she dumps you in the gutter, for suicidal Becky, then I can come clean to Deloris.'
 'But, it has to be the right moment,' Chris sighs. 'Thing is I'm going to reopen my investigation into Eric Lance.'
 'Look, Chris, your case on Lance, could become very, very dangerous,' Benjamin worries. 'Drop, the whole thing, it's not worth get your ass kicked six feet under for.'
 'The man is a sociopath, he needs to be stopped,' Chris insist. 'And Elaina claiming she had an affair with that guy, it's bullshit.'
 The waitress brings a beer each for the two men and wait for her to leave, before they continue their conversation.
 'He has a new girlfriend, supposedly, but she's just a cover up in his mind games, I can feel it,' Chris continues.
 'You can't let your job rule you Chris,' Benjamin tries to advise. 'It could be your downfall. Your mother and father worked in dangerous territory and it killed them.'
 'No, their demises, were personal,' Chris says.
 'Your vendetta against Lance, is headed in that direction,' Benjamin argues. 'If you hurt yourself, you'll hurt the ones who love you.'
 'Does your example, include Emma?' Chris sarcastically questions.
 'If she does, then she had a funny way of showing it,' Benjamin explains. 'I'm not expecting to stop loving her totally, but we have something special going on. In time, she'll be shacking up with Rebecca again and you'll be the fool hung out to dry. Don't let Lance get to you and don't let Emma have the satisfaction on trying to manipulate you into having a kid together. She's only doing it, because she's guilty.'
 'So, you want me to give up my case on Lance and you want me finish with Emma just like that?'
 'Come stay with me at Francis Bay, give up the New York Times,' Benjamin encourages. 'Then when we've saved up, we can run away together, leave all our problems behind us, please it'll be great.'
 'But, I love my job,' Chris said.
 'It beats, me finding you dead in an alleyway,' Benjamin answers. 'Whatta ya say pretty boy? It's me or a downward spiral.'

 

JFK International Airport, Eric drops Chanel off at the airport, as she prepares to take flight. She is headed to Seattle and back in less than a day. Chanel and Eric look into each others eyes and she a passionate moment.
 'That was nice,' Eric claims.
 'I liked that too,' Chanel smiles, touching his face. 'There will be plenty more in the future.'
 'Are you sure this will work?' Eric asks.
 'Hopefully, it will be enough to keep shut, that killer instinct inside you,' Chanel replies.
 'I promise, I won't lose it,' Eric promises.
 'I hope so, because, I can't cover for you all the time, if things escalate into something dangerous. I know we have to keep things under wraps. But, if we want to do good, we can't do it, by murdering people. OK?' Chanel demands.
 'Promise,' Eric agrees. 'So does that mean, I can call you your real name now, Megan and you can call me mine, Hank?'
 'Best not, you just don't know, somebody could be watching us 24/7, namely what's left of the Cosmos Society or anymore suspicious Mafia informants.'
 'Carla is a runaway and Bethany thinks she's got me round her little finger, but she ain't seen nothing yet,' Eric insists.
 'We're gonna do this the right way, together,' Chanel demands.
 'You have my word,' Eric nods.
 After declaring their love for each other, Chanel exits the car and heads into the airport. Eric drives off. Chanel looks around the busy terminal and heads up an escalator and continues to walk to the ladies bathroom. Exiting she is in a long black dress and then makes her way to the indoor parking lot Chanel. Chanel slowly paces herself forward, pretending to speak on her cell phone, when a match is landed at her feet. She turns left and spots a Mercedes parked a mere five feet away and she hops into the back and turns to a boy about fifteen years old, it's Jack Wilson. Chanel touches his face and kisses him on the nose.
 'How's my baby boy?' Chanel smiles. 'Like Mommies new look?'


 Chris and Emma's Apartment, Lower Manhattan, NYC. Chris returns home and heads into the kitchen to make a cup of coffee and he then calls out to Emma, who doesn't reply. Chris slowly manoeuvres towards the bedroom and flings it open. Emma clothes are thrown across the bed. The bed looks like it's been slept again. Chris smells a rat and marches up to the partial closed bathroom door and pushes it open and finds Emma taking a shower alone. Expecting to catch his wife in the act, Emma is startled by Chris's abrupt entrance.
 'I wondered where you got to?' Emma replies.
 'Went to run a few errands, what's going on?' Chris asks.
 'I've not been feeling very well,' Emma claims. 'I've tried to sleep it off, so I thought a shower might cool me down.'
 'You've been spending too much time with Cousin Rebecca,' Chris groans.
 'C'mon Chris, she tried to kill herself and her aunt died,' Emma reminds her husband as she steps out of the shower. 'It was a shock to her. I am her friend.'
 'If you say so,' Chris bluntly whispers turning away and into the kitchen.
 Emma follows after to her husband in her towel, as he seems to show his personality change again and this leaves Emma feeling really uncomfortable.
 'How long do you have to keep up these uncomfortable conversations?' Emma snaps. 'Let's just get it all out in the open once and for all.'
 'You first.'
 Emma stands silent, as she cannot admit her one time night stand with Rebecca. Chris suspects there maybe more to it, than a one night stand. Emma frowns and shakes her head in disbelief. Chris shrugs his shoulders and leaves the apartment. Emma returns to the bedroom and looks to the bottom of the bed. From under it, Rebecca appears covering her naked body in a blanket cover.
 'He knows, doesn't he?' Rebecca figures.
 'Yeah, and so does Bates,' Emma thinks. 'And I like to know how.'
 'Do you regret this?' Rebecca wonders.
 'No, but we need the right moment, it's gonna difficult.'
 Emma and Rebecca hold each other close in arms.

 Sunday 5th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca returns home early evening, after nearly being caught by Christopher, sleeping with his wife Emma. It has been nearly eleven months, since herself and Emma had any sexual contact with each other and even though they live over a hundred miles apart, the spark between the two beauties has reignited. Rebecca has recently lost her birth mother, Clara, to a blatant killing, that has been brushed off as an accidental death. That comfort that Rebecca had lost, when she moved to Francis Bay, has reached out to her again and she is determined not to let it go this time. Walking away from Emma the first time, was hard, losing her second love, Linda Perry, was tragic enough, second time round with Emma is something she will want to cling onto forever. Rebecca exits her vehicle and Harry rushes out and looks at his daughter in disappointment, yet also relieved, as she is supposed to be resting, following her attempted suicide.
 'I know, what you're gonna say, but I'm fine,' Rebecca insists.
 'You had us worrying sick,' Harry replies, hugging Rebecca.
 'Sorry,' Rebecca acknowledges.
 'It will get better,' Harry assures. 'Just takes time. Where'd you go?'
 'Just for a drive round Long Island,' Rebecca lies. 'Just needed time alone, pull myself together.'
 'A trauma like this takes time to get over, even though you and your aunt Clara, hadn't seen each other in years,' Harry adds. 'She was still young and it was a tragic accident. It's not your fault.'
 'The things I said to her, were rotten, I feel so guilty,' Rebecca cries.
 'You can't keep blaming yourself, it won't bring her back,' Harry explains. 'All you can do is have recent memories to remember her by.'
 'I guess, you're right,' Rebecca agrees. 'And I promise I will never put you or Bethany through, what I did again.'
 'Are you hungry?' Harry queries.
 'Yeah, I am actually,' Rebecca informs.
 'C'mon, lets go fix you something.'
 Harry puts his arm around Rebecca, as they head inside. Driving towards the house, is Benjamin in his pickup truck and Rebecca looks back, as his headlights glare closer, as he drives round the estuary and parks up outside his cabin home. Benjamin exits his truck, as Harry and Rebecca are about to enter off the porch. He looks over.
 'Hi, Rebecca, how are you?' Benjamin calls.
 'I'm fine, thank you,' Rebecca replies not making eye contact, then entering the house.
 Benjamin feels a little discomforted by this and Harry assures him, that Rebecca is still not herself, and it will take time. Benjamin nods as Harry heads into the house. Benjamin returns to his cabin home and proceeds into his bedroom, where he opens the closet door and the reflection from the mirror, he hid is staring him right in the face. He quickly slams it shut and lays on the bed, staring at the ceiling, as the spot light from the Light House can be seen touching the ceiling. Benjamin immediately draws the curtains, to draw away the distraction.

 Later, that evening, Bethany brings in Rebecca's clean clothing and places them on a chair for her, as Rebecca settles into bed. Rebecca tenderly holds the bracelet, that Clara bought her as a gift, over a week or so earlier. Rebecca gently places it in her jewellery box and hoists herself into her bed covers. Bethany sits beside her step daughter and holds her hand. Bethany feels guilty for attempting to Clara off to leave and forcing her away from her daughter.
 'Do you hate me?' Bethany asks.
 'Why do you say that?' Rebecca wonders.
 'You know. Before she drove off,' Bethany hints.
 'Oh, that,' Rebecca bluntly replies. 'Don't worry Beth, I'm sure you've noticed I've held the guilt, more than you have, after all I did try to kill myself.'
 'I haven't had it easy too, I regret what I did.' Bethany points out. ' But, I only tried, because I love you.'
 'That's your excuse?' Rebecca sarcastically snaps.
 'What happened that night, nobody could have predicted her fate,' Bethany figures. 'She chose to get in that vehicle, under the influence............'
 'No, Beth, we killed her,' Rebecca sighs. 'If we hadn't forced her away, she'd still be alive and we could have given her the chance to prove that she truly wanted me. And she did. My mother loved me, and she died thinking I didn't love her. But, I did and want her back.'
 Rebecca breaks down and Bethany comforts her. Bethany looks out Rebecca's bedroom window as she hugs her step daughter, and looks up at the Lighthouse.

Chris And Emma's Apartment, Manhattan, NYC, It's 12:47 a.m., and Chris lies awake suspecting Emma hasn't been trust worthy, as she lay fast asleep, with her back turn to him. It's only a matter of time before it's breaking point. But, when is the decisive moment. The mind games continue, but they will only last so long. Have Emma and Chris really fallen out of love? Chris makes sure she is asleep and he sneaks out of the bedroom and into the sitting room, where he call Benjamin on his cell phone. In Francis Bay, Benjamin answers his cordless telephone.
 'Hello?' A tired Benjamin calls.
 'It's me,' Chris whispers.
 'Christopher, honey it's late,' Benjamin tiresomely replies. 'It's almost one in the morning.'
 Benjamin moves out of the bedroom and into the sitting room.
 'Benjamin, I've decided,' Chris continues. 'It's you I want. And I think, It's time, I came clean to Emma, once and for all.'
 'You mean it?' Benjamin smiles, as he steps outside into the fresh air.
 'Yeah,' Chris said. 'If only my mother and father can see me now. God knows what uncle Harry will say, when he finds out.'
 'I must admit, it will be kind of uncomfortable knowing his next door neighbour is in love with his nephew, who's wife is having it away with his daughter,' Benjamin giggles.
 'So, does that mean, you'll come clean to Deloris?' Chris wonders.
 'Looks like it,' Benjamin states. 'Don't expect I'll get a good luck kiss. So, we're gonna do this right?'
 'One hundred per cent,' Chris adamantly declares. 'I love you.'
 'I love you too Christopher Wilson,' Benjamin breathes. 'Goodnight.'
 'Night.'
 Benjamin hangs up and smirks to himself and picks him, and skims it across the estuary. He turns and heads back in, unbeknown to him, Rebecca has heard everything from the porch swing.
 'Mother f****r,' Rebecca groan.
 Chris return to bed and closes his eyes. With her back turned to him, Emma heard everything and cries. Who confesses first? Emma or Rebecca? Chris or Benjamin? How will Deloris take it?

 

 

 Chris and Emma's Apartment, Lower Manhattan, NYC, Monday 6th January 2003. Christopher awakes at 6:45 a.m., and notices Emma is not in bed. He soon discovers she is not in the apartment at all. Chris begins to grow suspicious of Emma's early disappearance, but doesn't seem too much in a hurry to worry about his deceitful wife. But, who is he to look upon Emma as deceitful? He's having away with Francis Bay's local fisherman, Benjamin Bates, who's betraying his current girlfriend, Deloris King. Today, Chris is supposed to quit his job, in order for a new life with Benjamin and to not pursue Eric Lance, because of his dangerous nature. Also Elaina thinks that she is protecting Emma's secret, by keeping Chris off Eric's back. But, both Chris and Emma are aware of each other's sexual antics.

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Harry checks in on Rebecca who is still very much comfortably asleep and feels comforted that his daughter, is making a road to recovery, following who he thinks, was her aunts death, which made her want to kill herself. Harry proceeds down the stair case and into the kitchen, where he see's Bethany staring out the window in her pyjamas. Harry senses she is in deep thought and possibly worried of leaving Rebecca on her own in a while, as Harry heads off on his police assignments and Bethany heads to the bank for a couple of hours. Harry surprises her by rubbing her shoulders and kissing her on the forehead.
 'I know what you're thinking,' Harry suspects. 'But, she's getting there.'
 'I hope so,' Bethany replies. 'It's we're leaving her on her own, for the first time, in nearly three weeks.'
 'Don't worry Honey, Rebecca knows she has us,' Harry assures her, as he makes a coffee.
 'Do you think, I'm enough as a mother figure to her?' Bethany asks.
 'Now, what brought that on?' Harry wonders.
 
'I don't know, just me talking gibberish I guess,' Bethany shrugs off.
 'You are near enough, her mother and best friend,' Harry insists. 'She loves you, like her own and you feel the same.'
 'That's nice to know,' Bethany smiles.
 'Her attempts to take her own life, had nothing to do with you Beth,' Harry figures. 'Rebecca just had a moment of madness. She was scared. Scared us all actually.'
 'May, I have your honest opinion?' Bethany continues.
 'Sure, I'm all ears,' Harry acknowledges, sitting next to his wife.
 'Would you stand by my decision, if I decided to go in search of my son?'
 'As long as you think, it wouldn't bring you the sorrow and pain back,' Harry explains.
 'As time went by, after his adoption, I never blamed him,' Bethany claims. 'I realized, he was more mine than the Bastard who raped me. Huh, Albert Kray, he's probably out of jail now, keeping a low profile, under a new identity, he probably convinced whoever to that for him.'
 'If I saw him today, I'd kick his ass all the way out of the Milky Way for you,' Harry promises.
 'That would be perfect closure, for both myself and Ben,' Bethany answers.
 'One hundred per cent, I stand by your decision,' Harry assures her.
 Bethany embraces Harry and Harry notices the time and heads off to work. Bethany looks out of the window towards Benjamin's small cabin house, as he steps out to head into town. Benjamin looks towards the kitchen window and Bethany winks at him, with a smug look on her face. Benjamin grins back and kind of blushes, as he jumps into his truck and drives away. Bethany then leaves the kitchen and proceeds upstairs and checks in on Rebecca, who is still asleep. Bethany sits beside her for a moment, stoking her long golden hair and kissing her forehead before exiting.

 

Battery Park, Lower Manhattan, NYC, Emma sits in the cold wintery breeze, as the sun barley makes it through the clouds. Emma looks in the direction of where the Twin Towers used to stand, a few blocks away and remembers how much in love with Christopher she was, and how terrified she was, when his life was at stake, after the first attack on the North Tower. Emma was scared at the thought of losing, the man she adored and wondering if he was ever going to make it. Chris survived that day and so did their love, but now sixteen months on, it feels like those feelings of love, have vanished completely. Both Emma and Chris have found what looks like new love elsewhere. The sad thing about it is, they may even hate each other after this. Emma wipes her free flowing tears away after a few moments. In her heart, she loves both Chris and Rebecca, but it's too late. Chris intentionally wants to hurt her, because she betrayed him first, but that's beside the point. Benjamin has put the thought into Chris's head, that Emma could never have loved him and Emma is determined, not to let Benjamin make a fool out of her. Emma wipes away her free flowing tears away after a few moments, her cell phone calls. It's Rebecca calling from her home in Francis Bay.
 'Hi, I was going to call you,' Emma informs.
 'I've found out, why Chris has been acting strange towards,' Rebecca calls.
 'Funny, so have I,' Emma replies.
 'You know?' Rebecca gasps.
 'Yep,' Emma admits. 'I love you.'
 'I love you too,' Rebecca replies. 'What are we gonna do?'
 'I've got an idea,' Emma tells Rebecca. 'Call Deloris. Make sure you get to her, before pretty face Bates, gets to her, show her what a sick f***, her doting boyfriend really is.'
 'OK, this sounds interesting,' Rebecca chuckles. 'What do you have in mind.'
 'Alright, listen up.'

 

  NY Times, Manhattan, NYC. Elaina arrives at work, after her meeting with a few politicians and is shocked to see Christopher clearing out his desk. The last thing in the world she expected, was to see her ace reporter, walking out the door, abruptly. Elaina quickly pushes her way past her work colleagues to get to him, as he seems to be just throwing his belongings into a cardboard box. Elaina is completely, oblivious as to why he looks like he's chucking it in.
 'What's going on?' Elaina asks.
 'I'm packing my stuff,' Chris bluntly answers. 'Clearing my desk, once and for all.'
 'What do you mean, once and for all?' Elaina demands. 'Just your desk? Or..........?'
 'I quit,' Chris informs his editor.
 'OK, Chris honey, quit joking around. Stop what you're doing and do what you do best,' Elaina orders.
 'This isn't a joke, Elaina, I'm not gonna be working here anymore,' Chris insists.
 Elaina stares at Chris, as it feels like she has been hit by a locomotive in a rush to fall off the rails. To Elaina, Chris's job meant the world to him. He has been a reporter six years and every major story, was a goal for him to win the front page. Elaina suspects that something massive overnight, has fried his brain cells, or someone.
 'So, just like that, you've had enough?' Elaina shrugs.
 'Right,' Chris answers.
 'What's the real reason?' Elaina wonders.
 'That is the real reason,' Chris lies.
 'Christopher, I would like you to step into my office please,' Elaina interrupts, moving the box away from Chris's reach.
 'What for?' Chris frowns.
 'Because, this job means the world to you and I ain't gonna let you throw it away, because as far as I am concerned, you're talking Bullshit,' Elaina figures.
 'Bullshit huh?' Chris grunts. 'Is it Bullshit, you didn't cover Emma's affair to stop me from pursuing Eric Lance, in case he killed me?'
 'How did you find out?' Elaina gasps.
 'Never mind. All I know is I can't be around people who betray me,' Chris whispers.
 'Eric would have killed you,' Elaina tries to explain. 'We're still under his spotlight, even with him being with that Chanel.'
 'Well, you don't have to worry anymore, because I won't be here,' Chris snaps. 'The only person I take confidence now is from myself, since my best friend George died on the terrible day, sixteen months ago. He was the one true friend I had left.'
 'You can trust me, I was put on the spot,' Elaina pleads, as tears fall down her face. 'Emma would have pleaded with me to keep her passion with Rebecca a secret anyway, to protect you.'
 'More fool her. I expected her to love me, now I guess I have to find it somewhere else.'
 'What's that supposed to mean?' Elaina asks.
 'It means, I'm gone,' Chris answers. 'Oh and don't worry, I won't tell Abraham. The last thing I want is him on Lances radar or your son Andy. And you won't be able to explain yourself.'
 Christopher finishes packing his stuff and picks up the box and storms out of the offices and into the elevator, leaving Elaina shocked and dumbfounded. Elaina slowly paces herself into her office and sits behind her desk. She picks up a newspaper with Chris's name on the article it reads
'$2m Rocky Booth lights up Manhattan once again.' (Rocky Booth played by Sylvester Stallone, appeared in Season Four's ' A Ring' A'round, A Conspiracy'). Elaina knows this job means too much to Chris, but is she willing to step in between personal issues and risk Eric Lance going after the people she cares for?

Francis Bay, Long Island, Kings Cafeteria, Rebecca is having a late afternoon coffee with Deloris. Rebecca tells Deloris, that Emma has booked them a hotel in the city, as a kind gesture to Rebecca to help cheer her up after the trauma she suffered after Clara's death, and Rebecca was wondering, if Deloris would like to join them in the city? Deloris thinks it short notice and after a bit of pushing, is delighted to be invited and accepts Rebecca's invitation.
 'Benjamin is going to be so jealous,' Deloris sighs.
 'You can't tell him!' Rebecca abruptly shouts.
 Deloris jumps a little, spilling a little coffee over the clean kitchen floor.
 'What I meant was, I will convince Emma to get an extra reservation for your room and you can surprise him.'
 'Really, are you sure it won't be a problem?' Deloris smiles.
 'Of course not,' Rebecca assures her.
 'But, how we going to convince him to come over to the city to surprise him?' Deloris questions. 'I mean it's a two hour drive away.'
 'Leave it with me,' Rebecca giggles. 'It's gonna be a night, he will never forget.'
 'I'll drink to that,' Deloris nods raising her cup.
 Rebecca winks and smirks.

 Benjamin is finishing off some loose ends at work, when he receives a phone call in his harbour office from Chris, who informs him that he's quit his job at the New York Times. Benjamin is so relieved to hear, that Christopher had gone through with his promise. Benjamin now hopes that Christopher will move to Francis Bay with him.
 'Are you going to tell Deloris tonight, while I inform Emma?' Chris adds.
 'Not tonight, you and I are checking into The New York Palace hotel in the city,' Benjamin informs.
 'Oh, yeah, how did you manage that?' Chris chuckles. 'You mean on Madison Avenue?'
 'Correct, Benjamin responds. 'Some guy was moping around the harbour today and he asked me if I'd like his reservations for his hotel suit tonight, as he'd been blown out, free of charge of course.'
 'Wow, that was lucky,' Chris acknowledges.'
 'So whatta say sweet cheeks?' Benjamin grins.
 
'OK, but tomorrow, we come clean,' Chris accepts.
 Benjamin is thrilled and after given his love to Chris, he hangs up. He then catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror and quickly turns, accidently knocking a machete off the wall behind the counter and he cautiously places back up. It gets to the point where he hyperventilates and starts getting the shakes.
 'Relax Ben, Relax,' he tells himself.

Central Park, NYC, It's early evening, 18:05 p.m., and Emma sits in Central Park, dressed in a long black dress, split at the leg and high shoes, preparing to humiliate her husband and his lover. She answers the phone and her photographer friend, Colin, who is in Francis Bay informs her that Rebecca and Deloris are on their way and Benjamin is getting prepared for his unexpected date night with the fury.
 'So Bates, bought your sob story?' Emma guesses. 'You did a great job. I'll see you OK.'
 'Anything for a friend, I can just see the look on Christopher's face,' Colin laughs.

 

 

New York Palace Hotel, Madison Avenue, Manhattan, NYC, 8:17 p.m. Emma waits almost impatiently for the arrival of Rebecca and Deloris, as her nerves kick in. This was the last thing she ever wanted to do to Chris, but this is more or less has left her no choice, as Benjamin thinks he can rub Emma and Rebecca's noses in it, by suggesting they have had a long distant affair, for months, which isn't entirely true, up until recently, in which the spark between the two girls was reignited. Rebecca and Deloris arrive in Rebecca's car and the porter greets them. Rebecca hands the porter the keys, to park the car.
 'Scratch my car and I'll be scratching your manhood,' Rebecca threats.
 The porter nods nervously putting on a brave smile, before jumping into the vehicle. Emma, Rebecca and Deloris make their way into the glamorous hotel lobby. The porter sits and thinks to himself, before he moves the car.
 'I'll scratch the rear bumper,' the porter grins to himself.
 Upon entering the lobby, Deloris is amazed by how posh the hotel looks. Everything looks immaculate, the staircase, the furniture, the people are all smartly dressed and not one ornament is dusty. Rebecca looks to the front desk.
 'Are we signing in yet?' Rebecca queries.
 'I thought, we'd grab a drink from the restaurant first,' Emma suggests.
 'What time did Benjamin, say he'd arrive?' Deloris asks.
 Rebecca and Emma freeze on the spot, realizing they did not consider this and may have to make up a scheduled time.
 'About nine thirty,' Rebecca lies.
 'What do you do to convince him to come to the city?' Deloris wonders.
 'Just that Chris put a word in for him at the New York Times and there maybe a position for him, up for grabs and Elaina may consider him,' Emma fibs.
 'I'm gonna feel awful for him now, after you told him that,' Deloris figures. 'But, I guess you couldn't find another excuse. This is so exciting. I'll be right back, just off to the ladies room.'
 Deloris makes her way to the bathroom, while Rebecca and Emma nervously wait to see if both Benjamin and Chris make an unexpected, early grand entrance. The last thing they want is for the two lovers to walk and the spoil the plan to be humiliated in front of Deloris. Emma watches the door, while Rebecca looks in the direction of the restaurant.
 'I've got a good excuse, ripping Bates intestines out and rapping them round his neck,' Rebecca sarcastically groans.
 'I'd rather fart his mouth,' Emma replies, then frowns at what she just considered.
 'Whatever flips your boat sweetheart,' Rebecca giggles.
 'Rebecca, I want you to know, a part of me will always have feelings for Chris, but his hatred to me, hurts because of that bastard, but this has to be done, not just for our sakes, but for that poor girl,' Emma explains.
 'But, she's gonna hate us, after this,' Rebecca worries.
 'At least, she'll know what a low life he is. In time Chris will learn that, but I won't be there for him anymore,' Emma informs.
 At the front desk, the manager arrives down with an old lady complaining about her bedroom and he seems annoyed by her constant whining. Emma and Rebecca are distracted by the old ladies continuous nagging.
 'And where are the boats, I expected to see boats outside my bedroom window,' The lady whines.
 'Boats?' The manager gasps. 'You should have gone to a hotel, nearest the Hudson or East rivers then madam.'
 'I was told I could see them from here,' the lady claims. 'And anyway, when I read the brochure I was told I'd see ships, not bath boats.'
 'Well, I'm sorry you were let down, Miss,' the manager answers.
 'That's not good enough,' the lady snaps. 'I was expecting to be entertained.
 'Well, may I ask what you were expecting to see out of a New York City, mid city hotel bedroom window? Titanic with it's arse up, next to an iceberg perhaps? The S.S Poseidon being bundled over by a fifty foot tidal wave? Sandra Bullock ramming a cruiser into the city harbour causing destruction.........'
 Emma and Rebecca laugh hysterically, as the lady demands a refund, and the manager refuses. But, when he see's her toy boy make an appearance, he changes his mind.
 'Looks like this hotel is very eventful,' Rebecca senses.
 'Yes, and we're on the list for eventful,' Emma adds. 'I should have told Colin to recommend a time for Benjamin and Chris to arrive.'
 'He's probably still driving on Long Island,' Rebecca thinks.
 'I guess you're right,' Emma nods. 'Just need to relax.'
 Deloris reappears and heads over to the two ladies in waiting. The three then head into the busy restaurant and take their seats at a table, where the waiter takes their order.
 'I'll have a white wine please,' Emma acknowledges.
 'May I have the same please?' Deloris asks.
 'Certainly Miss,' The waiter smiles.
 'That goes for me too please kind sir,' Rebecca interrupts. 'Aren't we eating?'
 'You two can, but I don't wanna be on a full stomach, when I you know what with my hunky boyfriend,' Deloris insists.
 Emma and Rebecca glance at one another, knowing Deloris is going to be left disappointed. The waiter goes to fetch two menu's for Rebecca and Emma. Emma looks at her watch, and makes herself scarce and pretends to head to the bathroom, leaving Rebecca and Deloris at the table for a few minutes. Deloris scours the room, she is overly excited, but if all goes to plan for Emma and Rebecca, it will be heartbreak for Deloris. But, Rebecca and Emma will see they make it up to her.
 'You know, I can't thank you both enough,' Deloris smiles. 'This really means a lot and you got reservations so soon.'
 Rebecca stares at the table, taking in Deloris words. It makes her realize, what they about to do, is destroy what Deloris thinks is a love story. She's going to be humiliated. Rebecca cares for Deloris, as a close friend, as well as a colleague at the café in Francis Bay. Pulling off this stunt, is risking their friendship. Either way, her father, Harry will soon learn, that Rebecca and Emma have reignited their love, as well as his nephew sleeping with his next door neighbour.
 'Are you OK?' Deloris notices.
 'Sorry, I was in a world of my own there,' Rebecca said.
 'You miss your aunt Clara, don't you?' Deloris suspects.
 'With the short time we were reunited, it was like....................'
 'You lost your mother?'
 'Yeah, you could say that.'
 'Oh I'm so sorry, I forgot, you did.............there goes me again, opening my big mou..........I know what it's like to lose somebody you love. My brother James died in a house fire, he was just a kid. It sent my Mom into a mental asylum for a while. You don't get over it, but you have to move on at the same time. It's hard,' Deloris states. 'But, we're gonna put all the negative thoughts to the back of our heads at least for tonight and have ourselves a blast.'
 'Yeah,' a not so confident Rebecca bluntly sighs.
 In the lobby, Emma meets with the English receptionist, who she paid, to remind her to accept the reservation for Benjamin and Chris, as it's been placed in another name.
 'My friend Colin, he gave them a fake reservation name, so as you rehearsed, you are to pretend to acknowledge that the reservation was handed over from one party to another,' Emma reminds the receptionist.'
 'Oh you didn't give me the reservation name?' the receptionist points out.
 'It's Randall and Hopkirk.'
 'Randall and Hopkirk?'
 'Yeah, why?' Emma queries.
 'That's the name of a British sixties detective programme. The One alive is Randall, Hopkirk is the one who's deceased.'
 'Well, lets hope Bates has an unfortunate accident tonight then huh?' Emma jokes. 'Preferably on his way here tonight.'
 'That would make a wasted reservation then.'
 'It's just I'm gonna feel guilty after Deloris discovers what we intentionally did. God help us.'

 

9: 17 P.M. Emma nervously keeps glancing out of the restaurant window, to see if Christopher and Benjamin make their appearance. Rebecca takes a big gulp out of her wine glass, as the tension begins to rise up and Deloris starts to take notice of how uncomfortable the two young women are. Rebecca picks up her knife and fork and tries to continue with her stake dinner, but feels she can't be bothered or not hungry anymore. Deloris glances at her watch momentarily, thinking she should surprise Benjamin in the restaurant, rather than in the hotel room, but Emma and Rebecca, suggest keep the suspense going. Then suddenly, a red truck rolls near the sidewalk just outside the Hotel entrance. It's Chris and Benjamin, dressed smartly for the occasion. Benjamin kindly tips the hotel parking attendant and the porter, helps with their belongings. Emma gives Rebecca a nudge and signals that it's time they made their move upstairs. Emma encourage Deloris to ascend up to their rooms an Deloris accepts. With Deloris walking ahead of them, Rebecca asks why Emma won't allow her to catch them in bed together? Emma figures it may be too physically sick for her to witness and maybe a long painful memory, so it would be better if they walk in on her waiting. It will still work, Emma promises.
 'OK, Shall we sign in?' Deloris figures.
 'No, need I spoke to the girl at the desk, it's been taken care of,' Emma insists.
 'But we have separate rooms right?' Deloris wonders.
 'Don't worry about it, I already have your room key, ready for you,' Emma informs.
 Rebecca nervously looks to the entrance, as the ladies walk to the elevator and press to go up. Deloris is nudged in front of Emma and Rebecca, as to be distracted from looking to the front entrance. It is helped when other guests gather in line to go into the elevator. When Deloris is looking up at the elevator floors numbers counting down, Rebecca takes Emma's hand and places it just below her breast. Her heart is racing. Benjamin and Chris are escorted to the front desk and are greeting by the receptionist. Rebecca and Emma can't tell if the two men are in the building or not, by the gathering guests.
 'Could I have your name please?' the receptionist asks.
 'It's Randall and Hopkirk,' Benjamin informs the lady.
 An Englishman in his fifties stood behind them laughs at the reservation name. Chris and Benjamin frown and are discomforted by the mans disrespect, even though it's not their real names.
 'Sorry, but what's so funny?' Benjamin grunts.
 'I can understand why you would choose that name mate, considering.....you know?' The Englishman replies.
 'No, I'm confused,' Chris answers.
 The Englishman's wife then enters the fray. 'What my husband is trying to say is, that it's unusual for two lovers, to use a TV series duo reservation name to cover up an affair. I'm surprised you even heard of that programme, considering you're both young American men, it was set in the sixties and it was more noticed in the UK.'
 Chris and Benjamin stare at each other for a few moments and begin to wonder, if Colin was also using an alias name.
 'Do you reckon the guy, who gave you his reservation, was having an affair and used an alias too and just wanted rid of it?' Chris suspects.
 'He did have a British accent,' Benjamin remembers. 'Oh well, his loss, not ours.'
 Benjamin is handed a pen and signs in, as a few pretty women walk on by and smile at both Chris and Benjamin. Chris nervously smiles back. The other side of the hall, the elevator reaches the ground floor. Deloris, Rebecca and Emma step into the elevator, and the other guests shuffle in. After Benjamin finishes signing the register, he looks at the other receptionist powering her nose, with her back to the desk and she catches him looking and winks at him, but it's not her he's interested in, he's more concerned about who is stepping into the elevator behind. It's almost as if he caught someone familiar standing in it. Christopher gives him a nudge, to bring him out of his day dream. The receptionist hands Benjamin the keys and both he and Chris are helped by the porter with their luggage to the elevator, as they prepare to head to their rooms. The three women are already heading up to their rooms. Chris looks up Benjamin, who looks like he's about to punch somebody.
 'What is it?' Chris asks.
 Benjamin feigns a smile to keep Chris from discovering what's on his mind. 'Nothing babe, absolutely nothing.
 On the 21st floor, Emma and Rebecca show Deloris, her luxury room and the room over looks St Patricks Cathedral on 50th Street. Deloris is ecstatic by what she thinks is a kind gesture by her two friends.
 'Where will you two be sleeping?' Deloris questions.
 'We have the room, next door, which has two separate bedrooms,' Rebecca convinces, which isn't true.
 'Benjamin will be so turned on, when he see's me in this,' Deloris states, when she opens her small vanity case and reveals sexy lingerie.
 Rebecca and Emma sense the guilt coming on and make a quick exit, not before wishing Deloris luck. The two girls breathing gets heavy as their hearts start pounding and ultimately prepare themselves for an almighty bust up.
 'This is it,' Rebecca shivers. 'Once Chris and Benjamin use that spare key for Deloris room, they're busted.'
 'We'd better get into the room next door,' Emma suggests, grabbing Rebecca's hand and pulling into the room next door. 'Colin and my friend at the desk, have been a massive help in the build up, but now we need the plan to work perfectly for us.'
 'A perfect night turns to despair for poor Deloris,' Rebecca adds, slumping back on the king size bed. 'I expect I'll be picking up my last pay check from the Kings mighty soon.'
 'You can afford it,' Emma points out.
 'You know I never thought of that,' Rebecca sarcastically answers.
 'I didn't mean it like that,' Emma sighs, sitting beside her girlfriend.
 'I don't want to see Deloris hurt and we will do our utmost best to make it up to her,' Emma assures Rebecca. 'But I still care and have some love for Chris, it's Benjamin I hate the most. I do love you Rebecca, as long as you stay true to me.'
 'You got it darling,' Rebecca grins.
 Rebecca and Emma start to passionately kiss and they move their hands over each others bodies, when suddenly without warning, Deloris enters the room, without knocking to show off her lingerie that she intends to wear for Benjamin.
 'Sorry to barge in like this , but whatta ya.......................think?'
 Deloris is shocked by what she has discovered and both Emma and Rebecca are caught off guard.
 Deloris kicks the door shut behind her and the two ladies wonder how to explain their kiss.
 Stepping out of the elevator is Christopher and Benjamin, who are escorted to the same room, where the porter uses a duplicate key to enter the room. Upon entering, they notice that the room looks like it's being used, Deloris case is on the bed, the bed sheets are pulled open with petals scattered across the bed and on the floor and perfume can be smelt. Chris and Benjamin wonder if they have been let into the right room.
 'That's strange,' the porter says. 'You either have the wrong reserved room or who signed out, left their stuff behind.'
 'It must be the wrong room, because that perfume smells like it's be sprayed recently,' Chris suspects.
 'I'll go downstairs and check with the desk to straighten this out,' the porter tells the two men.
 'I'll come with you and I'll save you a second trip up,' Chris insists.
 'I don't mind sir,' The porter acknowledges.
 'No, I insist, thank you.'
 Chris kisses Benjamin on the lips and heads downstairs with the porter. Benjamin manoeuvres slowly to the small bag and opens it and recognizes some familiar objects inside. His eyes light up, when he suspects some fishy about to happen.
 'Deloris,' Benjamin whispers to himself.
 Benjamin scours around the room to see if their are any other surprises and their and makes his way to the on suite and spots more petals sprinkled across the bathroom floor and all the way to the shower. Benjamin's face turns red. He then hears a door slam and then the hotel room door opens and in steps Deloris, who seems to be mumbling to herself.
 'Rebecca and Emma, who'd have thought?' Deloris says to herself.
 Deloris then notices the suitcases brought into her room. There are two. But, thinks nothing of the extra one.
 'Benjamin's here?' Deloris gasps.
 'I sure am, beautiful,' Benjamin surprises. 'What a surprise this is, what's going on?'
 'You've been had sexy,' Deloris chuckles.
 Deloris and runs up to Benjamin and plants a passionate kiss on his lips.
 Could Rebecca and Emma's plan have hit a snag?

 

Benjamin is confused by Deloris appearance at the hotel and begins to wonder if he and Christopher were in the process of being set up. Deloris is completely oblivious to Emma and Rebecca's intensions, but Benjamin has been put into a tight spot, as he had to reveal himself, as Christopher would have come back to a hotel room, with Deloris on the bed in lingerie and he's only gone downstairs to enquire about the reservation room. Emma and Rebecca sit tightly in the next room after Deloris witnessed their lip locked moment, but now they await the happenings next door and it looks as if they hit a snag and Rebecca senses something is not right.
 'Do you get the feeling all has not gone according to plan?' Rebecca suspects.
 'I can't hear any commotion,' Emma acknowledges.
 'This was a bad idea,' Rebecca whispers.
 'I should have stuck with my original plan,' Emma sighs.
 'Have Deloris catch them in bed together?' Rebecca queries.
 'Right,' Emma nods. 'Too late now.'
 Rebecca moves off the bed and slowly walks to the door and grabs the door handle. Emma immediately stands up in panic as she worries Rebecca could put them in an even bigger predicament, if either Benjamin or Chris catch them.
 'What are you doing?' Emma demands.
 'I'm going to ear wig, what's going on,' Rebecca answers.
 'Are you crazy,' Emma groans. 'If you get caught, how will you explain yourself?'
 'You just have to trust me, I'll be back in just a minute,' Rebecca insists.
 Emma is almost tearing her hair out, as Rebecca steps into the hallway. Rebecca slowly manoeuvres towards Deloris hotel room and starts earwigging what is going on inside the room. She can then hear voices and then realizes, that the two voices are that of Deloris and Benjamin.
 'I love you Deloris,' Benjamin says.
 'And I love you,' Deloris replies.
 Rebecca is shocked to discover, all hasn't gone to plan. There is a hint, that Christopher isn't in the room with them. Rebecca retreats and hurries back into hers and Emma's hotel room. Emma marches up to her lover.
 'Well?' Emma bluntly questions.
 'We'd better get the f*** outta here,' Rebecca tells her.
 'Why?' Emma worries. 'What happened?'
 'We f****d up that's what,' Rebecca points out. 'I heard voices, it was Deloris and the Big Bad Ben, declaring their love for each other.'
 'Christopher not there?' Emma wonders.
 'By the looks of it, he's done a disappearing act,' Rebecca figures, as she paces up and down the bedroom.
 'I'm nervous, lets just wait a few minutes, before we consider our next move,' Emma encourages. 'What was I thinking? I was doing this to prove that Benjamin isn't Mr Nice Guy.'
 'You know what I've got a good mind to go in there and.....'
 'And what, accuse him of having a gay love affair, with my husband, and we tried to let Deloris catch them in the act? Benjamin and Chris will deny it and put the blame on us,' Emma explains.
 'Surely the girl isn't that naïve to believe that fish fungus,' Rebecca argues. 'We can't let that piece of shit walk over us and make us look the bad guys. Benjamin has put crap into that pathetic husbands of yours, head, that we've been at it since we last had our one nighter. OK, we've recently rekindled our feelings, but.....'
 'The thing that gets me, is how he came to be aware of our one night stand?' Emma thinks. 'The only people that knew of our one night passion last year, was your Daddy, Bethany and ourselves.'
 'If you remember, he was the stripper gram at your hen party last year, but, it doesn't make sense,' Rebecca adds.
 'Unless, somebody with an incredible big mouth told him,' Emma answers. 'It wouldn't have been Elaina, she's been protective of both myself and Christopher.
 'It wasn't me.'
 'I know that. Then it was either your daddy Harry or your ever loving step mother, Bethany. I seriously doubt Harry would betray his own daughter, but why would Bethany want to tell Benjamin our secret? The only reason she would do that is if she knew about him and Chris.'
 'But, why would she do him any favours?'
 'Beats the shit outta me,' Emma shrugs.

 Downstairs in the lobby, Christopher and the porter meet with the lady at the desk to query the room reserved pacifically for Chris and Benjamin. Chris informs her that it looks like somebody recently has been in the room. The woman who helped in the set up is almost put on the spot and soon realizes that Emma and Rebecca's set up, may have hit a glitch.
 'Oh, we must have had a room number mix up, allow me to check for you,' the receptionist lies.
 The receptionists and searches for other rooms available. They are fully booked. But, the receptionist still intends to make up her excuses.
 'My apologies the couple that were previously in that room, only left about two hours ago and may have accidently left their belongings behind.'
 'But, the room has a strong fragrance of women's perfume and it's a fragrance that smells recent,' Christopher adds.
 'Oh,' the receptionist nervously acknowledges.
 'It's not a problem, the room is fine. But, if you could come back with me now, sir,' Chris turns to the porter. 'And remove the left behind luggage, that would be great, thank you. Better get back to the boyfriend, he'll be wondering where I've got to.'
 Chris and the porter return to the elevator to head back up and the receptionist, quickly makes a call to Emma and Rebecca's room.

 Emma hurries to the phone beside the bed and she glances to Rebecca, wondering who it could be, but it could be just a call from reception. Emma answers it. It's reception.
 'Hello?' Emma calls.
 'Emma, it's me, is everything alright up there?'
 'Why?' Emma said, trying to be calm, as Rebecca watches on with her arms folded.
 'Your husband was just here, querying the reserved bedroom, wondering of was the right one.'
 'And what did you tell him?' Emma gasps.
 'That somebody else left a few hours ago and it is their room. He's on his way back up. I take it, the plan has gone Tits up.'
 'Thank you, honey, good night.'
 Rebecca walks up to Emma as she hangs up.
 'He's on his way back up,' Emma sighs.
 'But, don't forget he has to explain, why he's walking in on them,' Rebecca reminds Emma.
 'But Deloris will think, Chris is walking into the wrong room, we made Deloris think, we were setting Benjamin up on a passionate night with her remember? All Chris has to do is make up an excuse and Benjamin has probably wriggled out of his jam.'
 'I just realized if we stay, Deloris will think, you have set Chris up with a hotel room with you and she will worry, that Chris may catch us in the act, when he mistakes that room for this one.'
 'Oh f*** your right. Lets get out of here fast.'
 Emma and Rebecca organize themselves, to make a quick getaway. Looks like Chris and Benjamin get to survive one more day. But, Benjamin is already onto the two, when Deloris spilt the beans about setting him up on a date with her. Benjamin plays along with, pretending to think he was getting a job at the New York Times and offered a room at the Palace Hotel. Benjamin removes his shirt, then hears the door slam next door, as Deloris powders her nose, for what she thinks a night of passion with her fella. Benjamin takes a peak out the door and spots Emma and Rebecca hurrying into the far end elevator. Out of the next one, out steps Christopher and the Porter. Benjamin steps into the hallway and Chris smiles at him. Benjamin say 'Deloris, Deloris,' pointing to the their room and the porter does not take any notice. Christopher stops, as Benjamin steps back in and grabs Christopher's case, instead of Deloris and hands it to the porter. Benjamin then puts a friendly arm around the porter and escorts him to the elevator, whilst Chris is left to ponder what to do next, knowing now that Deloris is in the room. Benjamin helps the porter into the elevator and makes sure he doesn't come back anytime soon. Benjamin glances at Christopher and then rushes down the staircase.
 'Ben, what do I do now?' Chris wonders.
 Then he hears Deloris voice call out Benjamin and Chris runs in the opposite direction, as he suspects foul play.
 The elevator that Rebecca and Emma are in, keeps stopping a few floors down to let guest on and off.
 'Remind me to take the stairs next time,' Rebecca sarcastically suggests.
 The last two get off the elevator and the two lovers are only five floors from their great escape, it goes down two floors, when it stops again. The elevator doors open and only Benjamin is stood before them, looking very smug. Rebecca and Emma freeze on the spot.
 'Well, well, well,' Benjamin smirks. 'My two favourite Bitches. So what have been up to tonight?'
 Benjamin steps in as the door closes, with the two women trapped. The elevator descends a few feet and Benjamin presses the stop button.
 'Don't want any interruptions now do we?' Benjamin grunts, hitting Emma across the eye with a back hand lash and Rebecca watches in terror.

Rebecca and Emma are trapped in the elevator, between the last two floors, by Benjamin, who has sussed that the two women have tried to set him and Christopher up, in a plot to expose their affair to Deloris. But, it seems all has backfired. Emma has a cut lip, after an angry Benjamin back handed her. Rebecca tends to her girlfriend, but Benjamin is in no mood to feel sorry for his actions. Rebecca hits out at him, but he restrains her from striking hi anymore.
 'You thought you could two whores could get the better of me?' Benjamin grins. 'Well, think again.'
 'You, Bastard, Deloris will soon see you for what you really are,' Emma snaps.
 'Like your hands are clean,' Benjamin counters.
 'I'm no saint, but if I didn't know any better, I swear you're only using Chris to be the centre of attention,' Emma argues, holding onto Rebecca's arm.
 'Using him?' Benjamin laughs. 'You should know that better than anybody, you've been doing Role Play on his cousin for the last, what?......year.'
 'We haven't been having a full blown affair for your information, we have only just recently realized how much we mean to each other,' Rebecca interrupts. 'But, you, you've brainwashed him and made him love you. You have no conscious on how you're using that poor girl upstairs.'
 'How about your conscious Rebecca?' Benjamin answers loudly. 'Do you have one? I mean if only your Daddy knew the truth about your betrayal.'
 'My Daddy knew of Emma and myself from last year...........'
 'I actually wasn't referring to your kinky nights with Christopher's so called beloved wife, I was talking about the real secret your hiding.'
 Emma frowns at what Benjamin is referring to. Rebecca hesitates for a few moments, as she realizes he has somehow come to know her true identity and that she's not a Wilson. Rebecca nervously shrugs her shoulders.
 'I don't know what you're talking about? Rebecca denies. 'But, soon enough Deloris will know yours.'
 Benjamin moves closer to her, trying to intimidate her, as a woozy Emma stands watch in the corner of the elevator, holding onto a handle bar. Emma can see how threatened Rebecca is and fears that Benjamin could be very dangerous.
 'Oh, I intend to make Deloris aware, but with a little help from you and your lover,' Benjamin smirks, powering over a vulnerable Rebecca.
 'I will never bow down to your threats, and neither will Emma,' Rebecca insists.
 Benjamin grabs Rebecca's right arm. Emma tries to defend her, but Benjamin easily brushes her aside.
 
'I think you will,' Benjamin taunts.
 'Let go of me,' Rebecca shivers. 'Don't wanna keep your lover boy waiting.'
 'Allow me to tell you, what I know,' Benjamin insists.
 'Rebecca what is he talking about?' Emma asks.
 'I don't know, what this crazy Son Of A Bitch is on,' Rebecca assures her, a tears fall down her face.
 'Benjamin let her go, she's just recently lost her Aunt, she's had a terrible time,' Emma tries remind Benjamin.
 'Her Aunt?' Benjamin says quietly, with his back to Emma. 'You have no idea.' He quickly turns to his attentions back to an un-escapable Rebecca. 'Poor little suicidal Becky, crying out for the attention of the man she calls her Daddy.'
 'Benjamin, please, I just don't know, what you're talking about,' Rebecca cries.
 'Well, allow me to refresh your memory,' Benjamin grunts.
 He pulls Rebecca close to him and begins to whisper in her ear, as so Emma cannot hear. 'I know who you really are, Abigail. I know you're not Harry's daughter, nor were you the deceased Tina's. You've been making a fool out of Harry for sixteen months and as for Clara, I for one know that she was your birth mother and that it's because of you she died, covering your tracks. Did you try to kill yourself because you couldn't live with losing your mother or because you were scared of what Daddy Harry may discover? But, that's not your only secret is it? Remember Linda Perry? I'm just wondering if Emma is your true love or your consolation prize, considering you went to great lengths to protect a woman who possessed Vampire abilities and caused a Long Island massacre. before she died.
 
Rebecca does her best to hold it together, as Emma stands oblivious to what Benjamin is whispering in her ear.
'How I know, well that stays with me. So, now you know, what I do know, you have to do a big favour for me..........and I think you'll like it. Do we get each other?'
 Emma moves forward and Benjamin pulls back. Rebecca is shocked by what Benjamin has informed her and he seems serious, with what he is about to threaten them with, using Rebecca's secret against her. Benjamin looks like he will keep Rebecca's secrets under wraps, if she convinces Emma to bow down to a threat he is about to use.
 'Rebecca what's going on?' Emma wonders.
 Rebecca doesn't answer, as she has been very well put on the spot and forced into a corner. Benjamin is in control and only Rebecca can act upon his decision. Benjamin throws Rebecca towards Emma and he rest against the wall calmly.
 'You're right, Rebecca, I have no conscious,' Benjamin chuckles. 'And you can make it even easier for me. I'm not sure how Christopher will feel about it, but I think he will go for it.'
 'Rebecca what does he have over you?' Emma shakes.
 Rebecca cries as she cannot bring herself to explain, what Benjamin has over her.
 'I can't,' Rebecca sobs. 'Just know that I love you.'
 'Listen to your girlfriend, Emma,' Benjamin encourages. 'You never know, a happy divorce may still be on the cards. And you and Chris may still be friends.'
 'What do you have in mind?' Emma queries.
 'Well, since I had a different way to explain the truth to Deloris, and you attempted to humiliate me, I guess if I'm going to be humiliated, we all can,' Benjamin begins to explain.
 'What are you getting at? Emma gasps.
 'Ever tried two on two?' Benjamin smiles.
 'No, not that,' Rebecca begs.
 'Foursome or bust, what is it Rebecca?'

 Deloris sits on the hotel bed, looking at the clock, Benjamin has been gone over twenty minutes and begins to wonder where he got to. She walks over to the table and pours herself a glass of champagne. Deloris picks up the phone and calls the front desk and asks if Benjamin has been downstairs. The receptionist informs her that, he hasn't been seen since he was taken up to his room. After hanging up, the receptionist spots Christopher wandering round the lobby, looking nervous. He wonders if Benjamin is telling Deloris everything, or he's backed out and sending Christopher home. Christopher spots the engineers, trying to figure out what caused the elevator to stop before ground level., when suddenly the elevator descends. The doors open and inside are Benjamin, Emma and Rebecca acting like they were just unexplainably trapped. Christopher becomes really tense, when he spots the three in the elevator together. Christopher slowly manoeuvres towards the elevator and suspects something suspicious and once he gets even closer, he realises the game is up, when he sees Emma with her cut lip and holding hands with Rebecca.
 'You getting in honey?' Benjamin asks.

 

Deloris awakes on her bed, alone in her hotel bedroom and it looks as if Benjamin has not returned. She looks to the clock, it reads 11: 34 p.m. She stands up and looks around the room and into the on suite. She still wears her lingerie. Deloris begins to wonder where he so called loving boyfriend has got to and is about to call reception, when she hears strange panting noises and shuddering next door, Rebecca and Emma's room. Deloris slowly exits her room and enters the hallway. At a slow pace, Deloris moves towards the hotel bedroom door and partially puts her ear to the door. One voice sounds familiar and a shiver quickly spirals down her spine. Deloris grips the door handle, while her arm shakes with fear of what she may discover. The door flings open and Deloris discovers betrayal and devastation. Rebecca, Emma, Christopher and Benjamin are engaging in a sex act together completely naked against a wall. Deloris freezes as Benjamin turns and spots her, with no conscious and smirks.
 'Sorry, sweetheart, fives a crowd,' Benjamin says.
 Rebecca, Emma and Christopher turn and see a hurt Deloris break down into tears, and the three are immediately brought to guilt. Emma and Rebecca were aware of the set up, but did Christopher?
 'You're disgusting,' Deloris quivers. 'All of you, you sick f***** pieces of scum!!'
 'No, Deloris wait,' Rebecca begs.
 Deloris disgusted immediately retreats to her room and begins to pack her stuff. The other four begins to get dressed. Christopher feels dirty and begins to wonder, what his current boyfriend has turned into. He cannot believe he has just what he's done. A foursome with his wife, his lover and adopted cousin.
 'Well, that was taboo,' Christopher whispers.
 'I feel sick,' Emma begins to cry. 'I can't believe you convinced me to do this Rebecca. That poor girl next door.'
 'You think I enjoyed this?' Rebecca argues.
 'What does this prick have over you?' Emma asks.
 'What do you mean?' Christopher interrupts.
 'Ask your boyfriend, not me,' Emma snaps.
 'Now, wasn't that an adventure?' Benjamin laughs, putting on his shirt. 'Pleasure was all mine.'
 Emma tries to attack Benjamin, but Rebecca pulls her away. Christopher stands frozen on the spot.
 'I hate you,' Emma seethe's.
 'You weren't hating me five minutes ago,' Benjamin replies, arrogantly. 'And it will teach you, to try and destroy me and Christopher. Now, Deloris hates you two as much as she hates me.'
 'I don't know how I'm gonna live this down,' Rebecca sighs.
 Emma walks up Christopher, who feels ashamed of what has just happened.
 'Christopher, look me in the eye, and tell me, that I never meant anything to you,' Emma whispers. 'Did you ever love me?'
 'I could ask the same of you,' Chris counters.
 
'Tu Shay,' Emma answers.
 'In all honesty, there is two sides to every story, and I don't hate you,' Christopher said. 'But, I guess, we both live in different worlds.'
 'I didn't want to hurt you Chris, but I no choice,' Emma explains. 'He thinks he loves you, but all this was really about him. Deloris deserves better than him and so do you, from him and me. I'm sorry it's come to this.'
 'Me too,' Chris acknowledges.
 'Don't blame Rebecca, we made this decision together.'
 Chris and Emma have a goodbye embrace and she takes Rebecca's hand. Before the two girls exit the room, Emma turns to Benjamin with hatred. How could she let a man she despises, put her hand all over her.
 'That's the last time, you'll ever put your hands on me,' Emma curses.
 'At least you had one last passionate moment with your husband,' Benjamin sarcastically answers.
 
'Just so you know, this isn't over,' Emma insists.
 'And Rebecca will stand by that?'
 'You don't have to answer that Rebecca. I know what I'm gonna do anyway,' Emma glances to Christopher before leaving with Rebecca. 'You take care you hear.'
 Emma and Rebecca exit the room. Christopher gives Benjamin and uncomfortable stare for a moment, before heading into the bathroom and shutting the door behind him. In the hallway, Emma and Rebecca await the elevator, that will take them down and out of the hotel. Neither of the girls make eye contact with each other, but still grasp one another's hand. Suddenly, a voice abruptly stops them from entering the elevator.
 'Get a kick out of it did you?' Deloris curses. 'So you brought me here to humiliate me, to make a joke out of me.'
 'You got the wrong idea,' Rebecca attempts to assure Deloris.
 'Really?' Deloris chuckles, with tears falling down her face. 'Of course, I'm blonde, I must be f***** stupid. I imagined the four of you getting down and dirty with each other. How long have you known Benjamin was f***** your husband Emma?'
 'I had my suspicions for a while, but just this week,' Emma confesses.
 'I thought you were my friend Rebecca,' Deloris sobs, grasping her suitcase. 'Obviously you saw me coming.'
 'This situation is complicated, Emma and I hate Benjamin as much as you do, you gotta.............'
 'You hate him, yet you couldn't help yourselves, you're pathetic. I loved him and I thought he loved me, surely you two can understand that.'
 Emma and Rebecca have no answer to give Deloris, as they feel disgusted in themselves. But, it's too late, the damage has been done.
 'At least you two have each other, that's the main thing,' Deloris cries. 'Don't even bother turning up for work anytime soon Rebecca, I'll see to it. Anyway, you can afford it. I hope you two had a satisfactory evening. My has just ended.' Deloris steps into the elevator and presses the ground floor button. 'Tell, Benjamin to keep away from me and I never wanna see either of you again.'
 The elevator door closes, leaving Rebecca and Emma ashamed and pained. Emma is first to breakdown and Rebecca pulls her close. In the hotel bedroom, Christopher is sat in the shower, crying his eyes out, because of the way things have turned out. In truth he never wanted to end things with Emma, the way it did. Benjamin can hear his cries and it soon becomes clear, that he knows what he did was the wrong move and where he and Christopher go from here is anyone's guess. Benjamin looks out of the bedroom window and spots Deloris getting into a taxi. The cab drives off, as Deloris calls home to Francis Bay. Deloris asks her Father, if he can pick her up in Long Island somewhere, as she's had the worst night of her life.

 Somewhere outside City, Chanel Mantel possesses a disk and inserts it into a hard drive, but by her expression, she hasn't got what she was looking for.

The song 'You're Gonna Lose That Girl,' by The Beatles play into the final scenes and closing credits. ' Scene of Deloris leaving in a taxi, Benjamin and Christopher sitting in discomfort. Rebecca and Emma returning to Francis Bay. Night scenes of New York City Skyline, Statue Of Liberty. etc.

 SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE:
 HALLE BERRY as Chanel Mantel.

 

 

 


 Tuesday 7th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. King's Cafeteria. Charlotte King stirs in her sleep, as she relives the moment her son, James perished in a house fire, which she constantly felt at fault for. It was a feeling of guilt because she believed she neglected her son and it drove her to a mental institution for a while. Despite the support of Dominic and Deloris, Charlotte still saw herself as an irresponsible mother. It explains her overprotectiveness of her daughter, as she wants to be assured that Deloris doesn't hold her responsible for her younger brothers death. What started the fire remains a mystery. Charlotte abruptly awakes in a sweat, as daylight can be barely seen through the curtains at 7:30 a.m. She looks around the room as she sits up. Downstairs, is a groggy Deloris setting up tables and chairs ready for opening time. Despite the previous nights shocking events, Deloris cannot bring herself to sleep. Benjamin has broken her heart and her friends have betrayed her. Dominic enters from the upstairs apartment and is shocked to see his daughter out of bed and tries to intervene.
 'You should be in bed resting, I can manage down here,' Dominic insists.
 'Sleep is not what I need,' Deloris answers. 'I need something to take my mind off......things.'
 'Working won't solve anything honey,' Dominic adds. 'You're in shock. And so am I.'
 'What did Mom say?' Deloris queries.
 'She doesn't know yet,' Dominic replies. 'Your Mother looked like she was out for most of the night and may not have noticed I was gone to pick you up.'
 Deloris is brought to tears and sits herself on a stool.
 'How could he do this to me Daddy?' Deloris cries. 'I loved him so much and he looked at me, like I didn't matter at all. In fact, Rebecca didn't give a shit either, both her lover and cousin seemed as satisfied as that Bastard did. Just can't get the picture of what they were doing out of my head. It makes me sick.'
 'Just wait 'til I get my hands that Bates,' Dominic threats. 'He will soon find himself having a sexual dysfunction by the time I'm finished with him.'
 
'No Daddy, you'll just make it worse,' Deloris begs.
 'For him yes, better for you,' Dominic promises. 'Well, Rebecca is done here and I hope Harry is ashamed of her. And to think, it was Harry's nephew sleeping with that bastard.'
 'As far as I'm concerned, they're all dead to me. The four of them, Benjamin, Rebecca, Emma and Christopher are all made for each other, Deloris seethes.'
 'Please take my advice sweetheart, go upstairs and get some shut eye for a while. Please.'
 'OK, but please don't go looking for Benjamin. He's not worth it.'
 OK, I promise. But I will talk to Harry to see what he makes of his daughters sickening stunt,' Dominic tells her.
 'Thanks Daddy,' Deloris smiles, wiping her tears.
 Deloris kisses her father on the cheek and they embrace.
 'The only people I care mostly about will always be you and Mom. You're my best friends,' Deloris whispers. 'Please don't tell Mom, at least let me tell her when the time is right.'
 Tell me what, when the time is rights,' Charlotte interrupts, with her arms folded, stood in the apartment doorway in a dressing gown.
 It looks like Deloris will have to burden her mother, with Benjamin's betrayal as Charlotte will not rest until Deloris admits what she meant.

The Wilson Household, Harry is shocked to find that Rebecca had brought Emma back home to Francis Bay from the City, as the two girls enter the kitchen hand in hand. Harry had thought Rebecca and Emma had agreed to be just good friends, after their previous romance the previous year, but it looks like old flames die hard. And what's worse, is that Emma is still married to Harry's adopted nephew, Christopher. Bethany too is stunned by how close the two women have become. Does this mean Bethany will be jealous of Emma's constant presence? Harry places his mug of coffee on the counter and stands with his arms folded.
 'Please tell me, you two aren't............?
 'Yes, Daddy,' Rebecca nods. 'Emma and I are in love. We can't help how we feel.'
 'But, this will destroy Christopher, he's Emma's husband,' Harry argues.
 'To be honest, Harry, my soon to be Ex husband has found himself a new lover himself,' Emma explains. 'In your next door neighbour.'
 Harry and Bethany look at each other, knowing that Emma means Benjamin. Harry scratches his head, trying to get to grips with recent revelations.
 'What next door neighbour are we talking about Emma?' Bethany asks, playing dumb.
 'Benjamin,' Emma states.
 Harry laughs immediately thinking his daughter and her girlfriend are playing a game on him and Bethany. But, when he notices Rebecca's eyes beginning to water, it soon dawns on him, that what Emma and Rebecca are saying is the truth. Harry looks to his wife to support him on how to answer the girls admissions. He always knew since he met his daughter, that she was homosexual, but never thought that Christopher was bio- sexual. It's not a bad thing, but the way it's happened, it could have repercussions from the Kings, since Deloris was madly in love with Benjamin.
 'Benjamin?' Harry gasps. 'Why?'
 'Benjamin doesn't love Chris, Harry,' Emma thinks. 'He's just using him to get at me and Rebecca.'
 'Daddy I'm sorry,' Rebecca apologises. 'But, I can't help how I feel. But, Christopher is not all innocent in this.'
 'Deloris will be devastated,' Bethany reminds them.
 'She is,' Dominic enters the kitchen unexpectedly. 'No thanks to these two whores.'
 'Dominic, what are you talking about?' Harry worries walking towards him.
 'Oh, they haven't told you, the horror my daughter witnesses last night at the New York Palace Hotel?' Dominic storms.
 Rebecca and Emma don't make eye contact with Deloris angry father, as Bethany stands alongside Harry.
 'What happened?' Bethany asks.
 'Yeah, tell them about the state you left my baby girl in, after she caught you both in role play with Bates and his lover,' Dominic shouts.
 'What?' Harry say wide eyed.
 'Are you saying, that Rebecca was engaged in a sexual act with Emma, Rebecca and Christopher?' Bethany second guesses.
 Rebecca and Emma stand shaken looking the direction of the Lighthouse. Harry glances round at his daughter, who cannot even bring herself to look at the man she sees as her father.
 'Rebecca? Rebecca is this true?........Look at me!!' Harry raises his voice, as he startles her and she looks him in the eye. 'Tell me, this isn't true.'
 'I'm sorry it is,' Rebecca admits, in floods of tears, then breaking down in Emma's arms.
 'I wanna know why?' Dominic demands.
 'Dom, I'll stop by later and we'll talk this over, I need time with my daughter to straighten this out,' Harry pleads.
 'This isn't over,' Dominic warns, storming out the door.
 As Dominic marches to his car, he hears a door slam shut and he turns around and spots Benjamin and Christopher outside the cabin house in a clinch.
 'You Son Of A Bitch!!' Dominic yells, storming towards Benjamin.
 The other Wilsons hurry outside. Harry rushes after Dominic as Dominic punches Benjamin right on the chin. Benjamin hits the floor, but laughs off Dominic's right hook. Harry holds him back and Dominic throws abuse at the fisherman.
 'You are one sick mother******,' Dominic screeches. 'I swear if you ever go near my daughter again, I'll kill you.'
 Dominic storms off home, leaving Harry disgusted in his nephew.
 'You and I will be having words,' Harry tells Christopher.
 Christopher looks to Benjamin, who just shrugs his shoulders, touching the bruise on his chin.

 Benjamin enters his shop on the harbour and heads behind the counter. He looks in the mirror and checks out the injury that Dominic had caused. He then glares glumly at himself and catches the reflection of Bethany staring at him, with her arms folded, with a disappointed expression. He turns round and not an ounce of guilt is shown.
 'Go on then, tell me how disappointed you are,' Benjamin groans.

 

Christopher is escorted into the kitchen by Harry, as Rebecca and Emma are being kept company somewhere else by Bethany. Harry is shocked to discover, Rebecca has re-ignited her love affair with Emma, who is married to his adopted nephew Chris. But, what's doubly shocking is that Christopher has been sleeping with Harry's fisherman neighbour and best friends daughters boyfriend, Benjamin Bates. Harry signals an uncomfortable Christopher to sit down, as he wonders why now, after everything, he decided to cause such an embarrassment and humiliation within the family and to Dominic's family? Christopher twiddles his thumbs as Harry stares at him, almost with disgust.
 'I know I'm not your father, but you're very much part of the family fold,' Harry begins. 'I understand you've had your fair share of heartache, learning the man you thought as your father, Alfred was using you all those years, losing your mother Sylvia, your best friend George and then of course Jeff last year, but does that justify you getting into group sex with your cousin and our neighbour and breaking a young girls heart, in Deloris? Huh?!'
 'I'm sorry,' Christopher sighs, as he looks to the ground in shame.
 'What happened to you?' Harry asks, sitting down. 'You had a beautiful wife, you've got an excellent career........'
 'Did have an excellent career,' Christopher interrupts. 'I quit, the paper.'
 'Oh, so you shitted that down the toilet too?' Harry sarcastically answers. 'When did you realize you were gay?'
 Christopher is put on the spot by Harry's question, feeling he is not the right person to answer that pacific question to. Christopher rest his head on his hand, looking away, wondering why his life has taken a drastic and abrupt turn within weeks.
 'OK, I take that as a "no comment",' Harry figures. 'But why now?'
 Christopher is anxious to exit the room, but fears that it will make things even worse.
 'I see, you want me to mind my own f***** business?' Harry raise his voice.
 Annoyed, Christopher hits the table with his fists in anger.
 'I never thought of myself as Gay, it just......it just happened,' Christopher claims.
 'So the group sex thing just happened did it?' Harry slates. ' You and lover boy decided to invite Rebecca and Emma into kinky games just so you could get caught by Deloris and tear her apart. Whatever issues you have with Emma, it should never had come to this. If you had any dignity, you would have at least done this privately and had told your cheating lover to break Deloris heart discreetly. But then this isn't the first time you betrayed trust is it? Remember Lea, your Daddy's second wife, the one who turned into a vampire?'
 'Rebecca not all innocent in this,' Christopher reminds Harry.
 'I know that, I'm just as disappointed in her as I am of you,' Harry acknowledges. 'Losing her aunt is no excuse for what happened last night. "Who get's the last laugh?" Wwwhy? Why would any of you do this?'
 'I'm not lying when I tell you this, but it was a surprise to me too, when Benjamin walked in with the girls,' Christopher explains. ' They looked uncomfortable, when they started to undress. I think Benjamin might have used the wrong kind of vengeance.'
 'Oh, so you both were out to get my daughter and your wife?'
 'It's not like that. I guess I wanted closure with Emma.'
 'Well you it got alright, but poor f***** Deloris got the nightmare on her closed novel.'
 'I regret really I do,' Christopher insists, standing up and walking to the window and looking out tot he estuary. 'I couldn't predict what was going to happen, but I realize now that Benjamin intended for Deloris to walk in.'
 'It is still humiliating,' Harry points out, pacing slowly to his shaken and tearful nephew. 'Yet, your still with him, why?' Because you love him, despite his manipulating actions? Question, is how and why Rebecca was manipulated into this? She wouldn't have caved into Benjamin's sick stunt to break a young girls heart.'
 'Your talking like my heart hasn't been broken,' Christopher moans. 'When I first saw Emma, at the opening Senate campaign involving Otto, I was in love, it was the most amazing feeling I had felt in my life.'
 'What changed?' Harry queries.
 'Me, without a second thought. But, like I said, it just happened,' Christopher said. ' A part of me will always love Rebecca, but there's something about Benjamin that's holding me closer to him.......Are you gonna throw Benjamin out of the cabin house?'
 'I can't answer that right now, but if you two are to stay put, just remember, your soon to be Ex wife and my daughter are gong to be sleeping in the same bed, just another structure across the walkway from you. And a bit of advice, I wouldn't recommend lunch at the Kings Café anytime soon, Deloris may know where to put it, or throw it, I should say,' Harry informs.
 'All I can say, is sorry over and over again,' Christopher says.
 'If your mother and father were here now, I can just picture their reaction now and believe me Chris, it wouldn't have been pretty. Jeff would have made his presence clear and he would have seen to it, that Benjamin wouldn't be respected ever again for the way he's destroyed a blessed daughter that Charlotte and Dominic have.'

Driving from JFK Airport back to Manhattan, is Eric with Chanel, who he has just collected from the airport. Chanel is in fact on the run, Carla Morrison, former C.E.O of the silent organization the Cosmos.
 Also, Jack Wilson, who she claims as her son, has been in her care since his kidnap in Season Four's 'Manipulated Kidnap'. 'Whatever she has planned, Eric is completely unaware, that his current girlfriend, is the woman he used to sleep with on occasions back in the 70's. Chanel obviously has something up her sleeve and it looks like Eric has invited a woman into his life, who has the intent on destroying his. The disk she had hoped was placed in her possession, contained all the info of the Cosmos secrets and other miscellaneous crimes, including that of the mysterious death of Harry's parents, that has been in questions since the beginning of the series.
 The disk however, didn't contain the info she had hoped for and begins to suspect, that Eric doesn't trust her. It begins to snow and Eric takes it easy on the highway. Eric notices Chanel has been quiet for most of journey back to the city. He thinks she's just lacking sleep.
 'Your trips around the globe, seems to make you more tired, than I realized,' Eric figures.
 'I'm fine,' Chanel smiles partially. 'I'm sorry, I didn't call you sooner, to let you know, I was caught up. It's been kinda hectic.'
 'I missed you,' Eric claims.
 Chanel smirks, wondering if he actually means it or not. Is it a smirk of warmth or a smile, knowing that she thinks she is making a fool out of him?
 'I missed you too,' Chanel giggles, planting a kiss on his cheek and resting her head near his waist, as he drives.
 'Get up to much?' Chanel queries
 'Work and when I had time to myself, I chilled,' Eric answers.
 'Do love you me Eric?' Chanel unexpectedly asks.
 'Now, what brought that on?' Eric wonders.
 'I'm worried, that this is just a pretence, until we discover what's on that disk and exposing Carla and her sister, Bethany.'
 'No, matter, what happens your my girl,' Eric winks.
 'What if we f*** up and someone gets hold of the disk?' Chanel secretly attempts to interrogate. 'Are you sure it's safe in the apartment, especially if we're not present?'
 'Relax, it's perfectly safe, it's in the right hands,' Hank hints, without thinking.
 Chanel raises to eyebrows as she smirks to herself and quietly says the words to herself without a voice, "In the right hands?"

 

 Friday 10th January 2003, Elaina and Abraham's Apartment, Manhattan, NYC. Abraham, Elaina and their son Andy return home from watching a movie. As they enter the apartment, they find it ransacked. Abraham demands his wife and son, stay in the hallway to check inside to make sure, whatever intruder broke in, isn't still in the apartment. Abraham searches the bedrooms, all the drawers have been pulled out and the beds have been turned over. He then checks the bathroom and the cabinets haven't just been opened, but pulled off the wall and the bath looks like it had been smashed through. Abraham is horrified by the mass of the destruction, whoever broke in. It appears that nothing is missing and to why somebody would break in and not take anything is anybody's guess. Abraham searches for the phone, but the cable has been snapped.
 'Abs?' Elaina calls.
 'Wait there,' Abraham insists, as he takes out his cell phone and dials the Precinct where Eric s working late.
 'Lance speaking,' Eric calls.
 'Eric, it's me,' Abraham replies. 'Man, I really need your help right now.'
 'What is it?' Eric wonders, standing to his feet.
 'My apartment has been broken into, the place is like a dumpsters yard,' Abraham informs.
 'Was anybody hurt?' Eric queries.
 'No, myself, Elaina and Andy were out to a movie and we came back and found the place all smashed up.'
 'OK, don't touch anything,' Eric encourages his further superior. 'I'll be round with forensic investigators A.S.A.P.'
 'Thank you, Eric, you're a true friend,' Abraham says.
 Abraham hangs up and Eric puts his head in his hands, as he suspects who was behind the break in.
 'You don't know me all do you, Abs?' Eric frustratingly sighs, as he thumps the table in anger. 'You bitch Chanel, you're onto aren't you?'
 If Chanel aka Carla, was behind the break in, there is only one reason why she would be. To retrieve the disk, that contains all the dirty secrets of the Cosmos. Eric must've have trusted Elaina enough to keep Abraham in the dark.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca and Emma sit on the porch swing, looking out to the starry night sky. A shooting star, paces across the horizon, as the cold winter breeze brushes the girls into their faces. Emma turns to her left and stares momentarily at Benjamin's cabin house, which is also now occupied by her Ex- husband, Christopher. Rebecca turns her chin away and kisses her tenderly on the lips. Emma bravely smiles.
 'You don't have to feel guilty,' Rebecca reminds Emma. 'Chris dug himself a hole too. We all have to dig ourselves out of it eventually. But, as long as we stick together, we'll be fine.'
 'It's just gonna be so awkward now,' Emma points out. 'I mean, my Ex- husband, your cousin, Harry's nephew, is basically gonna be living next door with his lover. That's really awkward.'
 'Well, unfortunately we can't have a say in the matter,' Rebecca explains. 'After all, according to my father, we're all as bad as each other. Plus, Bethany has already pointed out, there are two sides to every story.'
 'Does your step mother have a thing for Bates or something?' Emma asks.
 'How'd you mean?' Rebecca frowns.
 'Well, I still don't know, how Benjamin came to know about us, and there is no way Christopher would have found out about us on his own, considering you and I have been living over a hundred miles away for months. The only two people that knew before hand was Bethany and Benjamin. From what I witnessed the other day, your Daddy seemed oblivious to everything, until we confessed all. Bethany didn't have much to say, until Benjamin was mentioned.'
 'I'll talk to her tomorrow, find out of she has forgotten to tell us something,' Rebecca promises.
 'I'm not gonna force you Becky, but what did Bates blackmail you with to go ahead in hurting Deloris?'
 Rebecca had wished Emma hadn't asked her that. If Emma knew the truth of her origins, her fake identity and Linda Perry, then it could become very complicated and somebody else could be left in turmoil. Also Rebecca, has been concealing Bethany dark secrets. Even though Rebecca has had no choice, Bethany has become dangerous and it's left Harry totally oblivious.
 'Let's just say, it's all in the past now,' Rebecca explains. 'I want the future to be perfect.'
 'But, what about poor Deloris?' Emma whispers. 'She thought her future was perfect and that shit face over there has no shame.'
 'We can't leave things as they are, we have to try and make Deloris see, that Benjamin was behind it all,' Rebecca said.
 'To be honest, I don't think we'll get into the café, without getting caught in the oven first,' Emma figures.


 Abraham and Elaina's Apartment. Forensics attempt to get finger print samples, and look for any kind of DNA or any other evidence which may have been left behind. Both Abraham and Elaina are left frustrated, by what has just occurred. Elaina holds Andy close, as she fears this could be a little to close for comfort. Eric and Elaina exchange glances at one another, knowing in truth, that the break in was over the disk. Abraham insists Elaina take Andy to stay with her mother in Pennsylvania for a few days, until it all blows over.
 'It will be a good excuse to get away from attention at the New York Times, considering you're the editor,' Abraham suggests.
 Elaina partially looks to Eric, who nods and agrees with Abraham with his suggestion.
 'I agreed, Abs and I will make sure, that whoever did this, will get what's coming to them.


  In a dark Alley, on the outskirts of Brooklyn, Chanel meets with a heavy inside a limo and asks him, did he find what she was looking for?
 'No, somebody got there before we could,' the heavy informs.
 Chanel is not best pleased, but suspects Eric staged the break in. But, he thinks Chanel had been the one behind the break in. So if it wasn't Chanel's heavy and it wasn't Eric. Who was it?

 

 

 Saturday 11th January 2003, New York City. Emma and Rebecca head into the New York Times office, to find Elaina, but she is not present. A reporter recognizes Emma and approaches the two girls to inform her, that she will be out of the office for a week or so. Emma and Rebecca then head to the elevator and calls Elaina's cell phone. It is turned off.
 'I seriously doubt Elaina, would tell Chris, seeing as she and Chris were threatened by this Eric Lance,' Rebecca reminds her. 'Does this so called Cop, know Benjamin or something?'
 'If he wanted to blow our cover, then he would have dealt with Elaina, myself and Chris right away,' Emma adds.
 'Sounds like she doesn't want to be disturbed, while on a vacation,' Rebecca figures.
 'Maybe,' Emma shrugs. 'All I wanted to know, is if she or Lance were aware of the revelation scenario.'
 'I take it, Lance has been too preoccupied with something else to take notice,' Rebecca suspects.
 'Elaina did mention, that Eric has been involved with another woman,' Emma replies. 'I'm sorry, but I still think Bethany could be the informant of our affair.'
 'I'm beginning to think you're right,' Rebecca agrees. 'If so why? I thought she loved me enough to not stab me in the back. I'll talk to her tonight, alone if that's OK?'
 'Just don't be fooled, just be sure you know what's true and what's not,' Emma warns her.
 'Whatever the truth, I don't regret us,' Rebecca smiles kissing Emma on the lips.
 The elevator doors open on the ground floor and stand in front of the two ladies are both Abraham and Eric Lance. The two cops are shocked to see Emma and Rebecca in a clinch. Emma stares directly at Eric, remembering the threats he made to her about her husband, if she didn't cover up his murderous antics. Eric does well to contain himself, as does Abraham and takes the hint on why Christopher quit his job with the paper.
 'Um, Hi Ab's, we just, come b...bu......by to see if Elaina was around,' Emma nervously answers.
 Abraham and Eric glance at one another, and Eric turns away looking very smug. Emma is worried that Eric will now keep his earlier threats and go after Chris, even now he is with someone else.
 'Elaina and Andy have gone away for a few days to her mothers,' Abraham informs. 'In fact we had a break in last night. The whole place was trashed.'
 'Oh my God,' Emma gasps, is Ela.....'
 'Elaina's fine, we were out during the whole thing,' Abraham assures Emma. 'God knows, why or who broke in, but Elaina and myself have become public knowledge in the last year and a half since we moved here.'
 'Explains why she turned her cell phone off,' Emma explains.
 'I guess I'm not surprised she would do that,' Abraham sighs. 'Considering what happened last night, other rivals of the newspaper will try and pester her. I've had my fair share this morning, but the Times has been warned. You two remember Detective Lance from the nine eleven memorial?'
 'I can hardly forget a face,' Emma almost whispers almost aggressively.
 'Yeah,' Rebecca grins, like a Cheshire Cat. 'Your partner is sure a tall drink of water isn't he.'
 'I'm flattered,' Eric chuckles. 'I get it a lot, it must be my ponytail.'
 'Emma, your personal life is none of my business, but you tell Christopher he's let Elaina down big time,' Abraham insists.
 'Will sure do,' Emma nods. 'I take it you're doing some investigating right now?'
 'Whatever clues there maybe, are likely connected with my job and Elaina's, but our current investigations have all had alibi's, so while Elaina's away, we want to make sure she comes back to be safe.'
 'When you talk to Elaina, be sure to say hello and that I'm thinking about her,' Elaina says.
 'I will,' Abraham assures.
 'Bye,' the two girl say, exiting via the front entrance.
 'Bye now, Abraham waves.
 'Laters,' Eric calls.
 Emma looks back at Eric and his smug face almost make her want to lunge at him. Both Eric and Abraham step into the elevator and Emma looks back again, as she and Rebecca step out into the winter air. Eric stares profusely at Emma, but Rebecca is quick to stop Emma look back, by tugging at her arm. On the way up in the Elevator, Eric chuckles to himself.
 'From where I was standing, they looked more than just good friends,' Eric points out.
 'That was a shocker,' Abraham states. 'And that's the second one I've had in just over twelve hours.'
 'We'll get the bastards who did this,' Eric promises. 'They f****d with the wrong territory.'
 'Say, how's Chanel?' Abraham asks.
 Eric thinks for a moment, as he suspects that she may be behind the break in at Abraham and Elaina's apartment. Eric had trusted Elaina with a disk, that contains vital information. Personal and dangerous info are on the disk, which has put the country centre of some cruel scenarios and Eric is keen to bring justice discreetly and not just for his own needs, but for Harry's too.
 'She's fine, she asked me if I loved her, the other day,' Eric answers.
 'You did say yes?' Abraham queries, expecting Eric to admit he loves her.
 Eric thought he could. He couldn't love himself, after all the brutal things he done in the past and not just his distant past, but a few months ago, he murdered two people. One for a favour, in return to be left alone, the other to cover his own tracks. The last one, left Elaina and Christopher in a predicament.
 'Of course I did,' Eric claims. 'She's my inspiration.'
 'Inspiration huh?' Abraham laughs. 'You mean you do the ironing, make the bed, do your own make up, make sure your pony tail is up to standard?'
 'Something like that.'
 'I bet you know every trick in the Kama Sutra now.'
 'And that my friend, stay's in the bedroom. You can't force me to confess, just because we're in an elevator.'
 'Tu shay.'
 Abraham enters the floor where Elaina works. Abraham and Eric head into Elaina's office and Abraham uses Elaina's password, which she agreed to give to him, so he can check out if there is any info on somebody, who could be connected with the break in. Eric begins to wonder if Elaina did swipe all the information she had on him, prior to her trusting him. The only reason he did what he did, was to attempt to escape his past and Emma and Chris's love life got in the way, with Elaina pulled into the middle and now Chanel aka Carla Morrison, America's Most Wanted in disguise, is out to stop her enemies before she is discovered. It seems the deceased Jeff Wilsons quick thinking while on the run, has got people fighting over his good cause. Eric suggests that maybe somebody that works at the New York Times, could be behind the break in or possibly somebody from a rival newspaper.
 'That's a good hunch,' Abraham agrees. 'Why don't you do some digging, while I carry on with this?'
 Eric to more than happy to do so, so he can have time to think on how he can stop Chanel, before she stops him. She's still very dangerous, and is her accomplices. Eric could hit the floor, long before he flinches, if she knew, he knew of her intentions. As Eric steps into the elevator, he cell phone rings. He answers it.
 'Lance speaking.'
 'I haven't forgotten, Lance,' Christopher whispers.
 'Christopher, I hear Emma has finally admitted his betrayal, I am truly sorry,' Eric said.
 'Your reign as a free man with soon be at an end Lance,' Chris threats.
 'That's what I like about you Chris, is your fighting spirit. Say, how's lover boy Benjamin doing these days?'
 'Keep up the cocky pretence Eric and you'll keep making yourself believe you're a saint rather than a sinner,' Christopher sarcastically snaps. 'So now, I have made my point, bring it on. I'm not dying quietly.'
 'I never expected you to, what changed your mind, Bates not giving you much attention lately?' Eric goads.
 'Just so you know, I'm aware you had Elaina keep trust in you and that I don't buy it,' Chris attempts to worry. 'I saw you give her a disk and she didn't hide it in her office did she?'
 'OK, Christopher, you have my attention, what are you implying?'
 'I think you know?'
 'You little shit, it was you that broke into Abraham's apartment.'
 'Bingo,' Christopher confesses. 'I didn't find what I was looking for. Somebody else beat me to it, so I'm guessing we have a dilemma.'
 'Dilemma?' Eric questions.
 'You either confess to Abraham, your true identity and your crimes, or I kill the traitor who protected a murderer and kept my wife's dirty secret,' Christopher threats.
 Eric realizes why Elaina's phone is switched off. Christopher has taken Elaina hostage. Christopher is then seen in an unknown dark place, holding a tied up and gagged Elaina hostage. Elaina is terrified and in tears, as Christopher holds a gun to his once boss's head.
 'I had been seen as the apple of my deceased mothers eyes, the son that a father like Jeff Wilson could be proud of and a once devoted husband to Emma, who I thought loved me. But that all changed, when she, Elaina and you all shit on me. I lost my best friend George the day of those terrible attacks, so what exactly have I got to lose now, huh? Nothing, because you probably won't care if I kill her or not. And if I do kill her, I go to jail and could still tell the world about you, so we're at "catch 22." I'll give you twenty four hours to make your mind up and then we'll decide Elaina's fate. I'd hate to be in your shoes, when you tell Abraham it was your fault, his wife died. What are you Eric, Saint Or Sinner?'
 Christopher hangs up, leaving Eric in a predicament. Christopher has lost the plot and Chanel is also on the war path. Double Trouble.
 Elaina sits terrified in a dark unknown location. Andy's whereabouts are unknown. Christopher leaves her alone, in the cell, as she cries out.

 

Bethany returns home for a lunch break from the bank and notices the basement door, has been opened. Bethany figures that somebody must be home, as there is no forced entry to suspect a burglar has entered the premises. Bethany walks to the door and looks down into the darkness. She then quickly looks up to the upstairs landing, thinking somebody is home.
 'Hello?' Bethany calls. 'Harry?! Rebecca?!
 There is no reply. Harry is likely to be at work and to Bethany's knowledge, Rebecca and Emma have drove to the city. The family rarely enter the basement and the last time that anybody entered down below, was when Steven Whittaker made an unexpected appearance. Bethany turns on the basement light and cautiously proceeds down the staircase. She reaches the bottom and is appears to be empty. Bethany's mind seems to be put at rest and she turns to head back upstairs, when she notices in the lights glare, on the old dusty furnace, a dusty incarnation of Bethany's initials, B.M.W. Bethany checks inside the furnace and finds a brown envelope. She takes it out and opens it. What she takes out, is what Eric, Chanel and Christopher have all been looking for. The disk of secrets. Bethany stares at the disk, before noticing a note, written to her. "Sometimes we can't throw caution to the wind Mother. We have to fight fire with fire x. " Bethany then realizes what she has in her grasp and she smirks to herself.
 'That's my boy,' Bethany grins.

 Precinct, NYC, Manhattan. Eric tries to get himself together and he turns the faucet on, in the men's room and throws cold water over his face. It looks like trying to be a honourable guy, is not paying off. He is far from an angel, but he's trying to repent for all his crimes. But, psychologically instinct may become too powerful and he will deal with anything a danger to his secret life, accordingly. He has murdered two people since he came to New York, one as a hit ordered by Bethany, granting him his personal space afterwards, yet a old face from his past came to haunt him and he dealt with it, by crushing his victim in a junkyard. Yet, in between his ghastly antics, he's your friendly neighbourhood cop, to serve and protect. He trusted Elaina enough with the disk, so he could test Chanel's trust. Right now, he's finding it difficult who to trust, as Chanel is keeping him in the dark and now Christopher wants to make it difficult for Eric, by threatening to kill Elaina, if Eric doesn't confess who he really is to the world. So far, Eric will do anything to avoid having his past connections kept secret, he wanted to get his revenge on the Morrison sisters his own way. In truth, he has nothing to lose anymore. The disk is missing, Chanel is onto him and Christopher is threatening all kinds. Nothing is going his way, the only other option he has, is to kill a lost Christopher and hope Elaina will continue to keep his secret, due to a sort of kind act. Andy's status is unknown and Elaina is trapped in a secret place, with chains. Eric has just twenty two hours to conjure up something to put everything back on course. It looks like he may have to kill Chris to save himself and Chanel is difficult to get to, as she now may suspect he is onto her. The disk, plus a hard drive that is difficult to track down, was the holy grail. Eric feels his past as Hank Willis, still influences him into the dark side that persistently won't let him into the light. Telling Harry Wilson all now face to face, could risk everything. Even though the Cosmos Organization,
 isn't as powerful as it was, the people behind the deceit and corruption are a danger to anyone who attempts to expose it, and whether you're a loved one or not, there is only one way out and you don't know who is lurking behind a corner. Eric can't that risk. Eric exits the bathroom and proceeds into his office and falls into his chair. He looks out of the window as the mid afternoon winter sun, beams down onto the New York City skyline. He looks across to where the World Trade Center's used to stand, then he turns back and unlocks his desk. Out he takes, is a picture of Tina, when she was just eighteen, before she and Harry officially became High School Sweethearts. Maybe his act of trying to do Harry a favour, is because of the warm heart, they both fell in love with, Tina. Even though he hated that Tina chose Harry at the time, this time he can make Harry choose his side. Eric close his desk back up and put his head in hands, as he tries to a way attempt to keep his secret and keep Elaina alive. There is a commotion outside his office, as a police officer tries to restrain eighteen year old, shoplifter, Joe Hayes, who is wearing a familiar necklace. The
Cosmos necklace.

Joe Hayes continues to cause a scene, inside the offices of the Police Station. The Cosmos necklace falls from around the neck of Hayes, during a struggle, as the officer with him tries to restrain him. Eric watches the necklace hits the floor and recognizes the similarities of the once secret societies necklace. So many have been purchased without knowledge of it's power over the years and also given to those who has special powers. Eric moves forward and picks it up, as Joe profusely refuses to calm down and decides to insult the arresting officer, Farrell.
 'Do you treat your wife like this asshole?' Joe yells.
 'No, but I wish I could,' Farrell unexpectedly admits with his voice raised.
 Everybody begins to stare.
 'You really hate her that much?' Joe queries.
 'Yeah, I f***** do,' Surprisingly confesses. 'The Bitch is so annoying, I don't know why I married her. The only reason I stay with her, is because of our daughter, Erin, or should I say her daughter. I could never admit she's not mine anyway and leave, as she inherits millions upon her eighteenth birthday from her grandfather, I mean what idiot would walk away from that?'
 Eric and his colleagues are gobsmacked by how Officer Farrell can keep a straight face by admitting what he did. Joe smugly smirks, as Farrell's, Carol has heard everything, with her teenager daughter, Erin stood beside her in utter shock at Farrell's admission. Carol is devastated.
 'You bastard,' Carol scolds.
 Within moments to every bodies stunned silence, Farrell cannot believe his actions, almost as if he never meant to say what he admitted to a criminal he just arrested. Farrell looks to Erin, who now knows he is not her father and she is heart broken. Erin looks to her mother and runs out of the offices and Carol chases after her. Farrell looks to Eric, feeling embarrassed.
 'What just happened?' Farrell gasps.
 'You just got something very personal off your chest,' Eric reminds him.
 Farrell notices Joe with a smug grin on his face. He also looks around and everyone is staring.
 'Oh my God, Carol, Erin,' Farrell panics, as he rushes out of the offices after his wife and her daughter.
 Eric is too occupied by Farrell's strange outburst, Joe makes a run for it and Eric gives chase. Joe paces himself down the staircase. Half way down, he notices his necklace is missing and he stops and it suddenly dawns on him, it came off during the struggle with Officer Farrell.
 'Looking for this?' Eric appears at the top of the stairs holding up the necklace.
 Joe is hesitates, before Eric assures him he will go easy on him. Joe ascends the staircase and Eric takes him into the locker rooms. The coast is clear and Eric shuts them in. Joe becomes uncomfortable and feels intimidated by Eric's size.
 'May I have my necklace back please?' Joe asks, nervously.
 'I will, but first you need to tell me where you got this,' Eric demands.
 'Does it matter?' Joe sighs.
 'Do you know what this is?' Eric questions.
 'Sounds to me like you already know,' Joe figures.
 'Of course I know what this is,' Eric admits. 'This necklace is part of the once of the secret organization, the Cosmos ran by Carla Morrison, who is currently America's most wanted.'
 'You know the Ring Leader behind that Charade?' Joe asks.
 'Yes, I've known Carla since 1973, we had occasional sex together, it was never love at first. After spending years apart, due to me being in prison, we reconnected in 1996, for a short time, while she had her minions run her scandalous company, so she and I cared for her son. At the time, we changed our identities. But, when a gang seeked revenge and threatened to expose Carla and myself, we faked our death's and went our separate ways. I ended up in Florida and Carla was kept anonymously out of site, until she retrieved her son, Jack back from my once deceased best friends Husband and wife. I knew Carla had Jacks adoption by Harry and Tina set up, because she knew it would be easy to retrieve him , when the time was right. He was psychic. She never mentioned who the father was, I knew I never was,' Eric explains.
 'Wow, that is incredible man,' Joe chuckles. 'I bet this precinct doesn't even know about this.'
 'No way in hell, would I ever let anybody know about me,' Eric adds. 'My real name is Hank Willis, not Eric Lance, Carla concealed my identity, as I have faked my death and began a new life, but my attempts at that have been halted by interference from my past and a reporter from the New York Times, who is threatening to kill his editor if I don't fess up in the next twenty four hours. But, that's not all, I have recently crossed paths with Carla's sister, Bethany, who lives on Long Island with Harry Wilson and his daughter......What have I just done? I can't believe I just admitted all that to you......It's you isn't it? You have a special power don't you? What is it?'
 'Without the necklace, I can force people to tell the truth, even if they don't want to,' Joe confesses. 'It's an involuntary act, that is out of your control, but voluntarily I can control.'
 'Did the Cosmos give you this power?' Eric wonders.
 'No, my power runs in the line of my family generation since the so called myth began on 1901,' Joe claims. 'The society had nothing to do with it. Man your confession to me could leave you in a pickle.'
 'Are you threatening to expose me?' Eric frowns. 'Do you really think I can just let you walk out of here?'
 'What are you gonna do, HANK? Kill me?' Joe attempts to provoke.
 'I could do, I have done before to protect myself,' Eric considers.
 Joe quivers in his shoes, as he fears Eric could do just that.
 
'But, I'm not,' Eric whispers, handing back the necklace to Joe, who takes lightly from Eric, who seems to mellow.
 'You could be useful to me, very useful and I'll make it worth your while,' Eric promises.
 'What do you need my help for?' Joe queries. 'I don't need to be exploited.'
 'Let's just say, I'm tired of playing the bad guy, but not tired of playing dirty. Chanel Mantel and Bethany won't know what hit them. What do you say to a little trip to the small Long Island town of Francis Bay?'

 About half hour later, Eric checks his office phone. It's not been bugged to his relief. Now to put his plan in motion. If he does confess and is sent to jail, he's taking Bethany and Carla/Chanel with him.

 

Unknown lock up. It's late afternoon, Elaina is still chained up to a wall in a dark room. Her screams for help are impossibly heard. Again she calls out Andy's name and she cries her out. Elaina kicks out at the chains that trap her in an attempt to free herself, but to avail. Christopher has totally lost the plot and he re-enters the room, where he holds her hostage. In his hands he hold sandwiches and a bottle of water, yet on his belt, is a handgun. Elaina realizes, she must somehow obtain, the weapon, before her once ace reporter she employed, gets seriously even more dangerous. Christopher kneels down beside her, as she sits helpless with nowhere to go.
 'I'm sorry it had to come to this, but I had no choice,' Christopher claims.
 'What have you done with my son?' Elaina asks, agitated. 'What have you done with my Andy?!'
 'Elaina, I would never hurt your son, believe me I wouldn't,' Chris assures her. 'But, I have lost all sense of my life now. All the people that I have loved or trusted, have either died, lied and shit on me. Like you.'
 'I have been straight with you,' Elaina whispers.
 'Only when you thought you could trust me, but then I trusted you,' Chris slates. 'In my opinion, you and that psychotic ass wipe of a so called cop, were in cahoots with one another. Maybe you too were having an affair with each other, and covering up Emma's affair with Rebecca was just a bonus.'
 'I was protecting you,' Elaina cries.
 'You lying bitch,' Christopher grunts. 'Lance trusted you enough with a disk and you concealed it somewhere. Where is it?'
 'Why is it so important to you?' Elaina queries.
 
'Because my father, Jeff, died, trying to send a warning on something possibly critical, on a disk and it went missing,' Chris explains. 'Could this be the disk I'm looking for?'
 'I have no idea what is on it?' Elaina replies.
 'You f***** liar,' Chris blasts. 'Why are you so intent on protecting a murderer?'
 'Because he doesn't trust his girlfriend,' Elaina informs.
 'What has she found out his true colours, then?' Chris figures.
 'I don't think it's like that,' Elaina shrugs.
 Chris kneels beside a terrified a Elaina and he gives of a smug smile.
 'Is he humping you?' Chris cruelly remarks.
 'You dirty Bastard, how could even think that of me?' Elaina yells. 'You should know me by now.'
 'Yeah, like I knew my wife, before she was f***** my cousin, but I why should I care? I'm just a soft touch and I let anybody walk over me,' Chris sarcastically answers.
 'I'm not walking over you Chris, I'm on your side,' Elaina promises.
 'Yeah right. The last decent person that was on my side, died getting shot in a burning building, whilst protecting a woman, who betrayed my mother the night she died,' Chris shouts.
 'Then you know how I feel, not knowing where my son is,' Elaina worries.
 'He will be irrelevant to you anyway, if Lance f***'s up,' Chris horribly answers.
 'That's not you talking Chris,' Elaina insists. 'You're not thinking straight. There's a lot of good in you Chris.......'
 'Shut up!!' Chris demands. 'Don't patronize me!! I don't know who I am anymore.'
 'Look at me Chris,' Elaina whispers. 'I'm your friend. Don't destroy my sons life, because of some personal vendetta.'
 'Then, what Elaina, tell me what to do?' Chris begins to cry.
 'Let it go,' Elaina begs.
 Chris thinks for a few moments and wonders if he's acted rashly. Elaina hopes that she has somehow brought him round to his senses. Chris doesn't say anything as he removes his gun from his belt and begins to chain her, so Elaina can eat and drink. Chris places the sandwich and bottled water next to her side. Elaina notices how tense, Chris grasps the weapon. He glances back and forth at Elaina. It's almost as if, he has lost all sense of reality, forgetting who he is and who he can really trust. Chris stands up and then turns to his former Editor, who await anxiously for Chris to admit defeat.
 'Let it go, huh? What an insult. After what I've been through, what you concealed behind my back? For him and that bitch of a wife of mine?' Chris growls. 'I'm sorry Elaina, but I've come too far. If my life is over, then I've got nothing to lose, if I can't find out what's on that disk. In truth, you know relying on a murderer isn't always a good idea.'
 'I guess that's easy for you to say, when you claim you have nothing to lose,' Elaina snaps.
 'You know, since you mentioned, Chanel Mantel, I think I'll track her down,' Chris figures.
 'I wouldn't advise that,' Elaina warns.
 'Why?' Chris laughs.
 'Eric might be right,' Elaina considers. 'You're playing a very dangerous game. Just think of your actions as like Russian Roulette. Unless of course your planning to commit suicide.'
 'I've been in many dangerous situations and in case I don't make it and Eric does decide to the, the truth, then you'd better hope they find you, before you starve to death in here.'
 'Don't do this Chris, you're no this evil, it's all talk. You'll see the light, you'll see. You're not a killer.'
 'Maybe I've become what Lance is. Going to great lengths no matter what the cost,' Chris thinks.
 'Then I guess, I can't convince you to be on my side anymore?'
 'You just answered your own question.'
 OK, Chris, have it your way,' Elaina sighs.
 Without any warning, Elaina bravely kicks the gun out of Christopher's hand and the two grapple for control of it. Christopher gets Elaina into a headlock, but she manages to scratch his face with his finger nails. She elbows him in the face and she grabs the gun, then points it at Chris.
 'Please, don't make me do this,' Elaina seethes. 'Where's Andy?'
 'Go ahead pull the trigger, it won't be the first time you stabbed me in the back,' Chris attempts to bluff. 'Now you can shoot me right between the eyes.'
 Suddenly, Andy's voice can be heard from outside the room and this distracts Elaina and Chris lays into her. The gun falls to the floor, as it goes off and the bullet ricochets into Christopher's arm. Elaina hurries out of the room and she heads up a staircase and enters into what appears to be a derelict house. Outside, seems to be countryside, and a lake. Elaina looks around the scruffy house and cry can be heard upstairs. Elaina rushes the bedroom door, but it's locked. Elaina kicks it in and retrieves Andy, but Chris heads in, with a bloody arm and points his gun at Elaina's head. Andy watches in fright, at the sight his mother is trapped in.
 'If you're gonna kill, at least let my son have his freedom,' Elaina calmly said.
 Chris hesitates and hesitates, deep down he knows he could never commit murder. It's not his nature and Elaina knows this. It's time to call his bluff. Chris is so wound up and confused, Andy kicks him in the nuts and both he and his mother make a run for it. Elaina locks the bedroom door and out the house they run, although Elaina and Andy have no idea, where they are.
 'Where are we mommy?' Andy asks.
 'I don't know,' Elaina worries. 'C'mon lets go.'

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Benjamin profusely calls Christopher's cell phone, but it appears to be switched. In frustration he kicks the side of his truck, which is noticed by Rebecca and Emma, who return from Manhattan. The two girls look at him really smug and his face feels like it is about to crack.
 'Ran out on you already has he?' Rebecca winds up. 'Can't say I blame the poor bitch.'
 'Not that you care, but his cell phone is switched off,' Benjamin groans.
 'Sounds like he's getting cold feet,' Emma suspects. 'But, then again, you're a colded hearted Son Of A Bitch.'
 'I'd would love for you to say that to her face, Emma,' Benjamin attempts to provoke.
 'Funny, you never mentioned your mother,' Rebecca interrupts. 'If I ever meet her, I will shake her hand for giving you up for adoption.'
 'Oh and who was your mother, Rebecca?' Benjamin counters.
 Rebecca falls silent and worried, as Benjamin hints he knows her secret.
 'You are one hurtful Bastard, Bates,' Emma argues.
 'You weren't complaining last Monday night, you whore.'
 'Oh, f*** me in the ass, Bates and go break some other guys heart, while your nuts are still intact,' Emma threats.
 'Is that a promise or a threat?' Benjamin forces.
 'You'll find out and wherever Chris is, I hope he's safer than you'll ever be.'
 Rebecca and Emma retreat back into the house, with Benjamin laughing off Emma's threat.

 

Bethany meets with Dominic in a secret meeting and he makes it clear, that he does not wish to talk about Benjamin's outrageous betrayal towards his daughter, Deloris. Bethany states that, the meeting has nothing to do with recent events, and she informs him, that the disk, that Jeff infiltrated into the country, before his death is now in her possession. Dominic is stunned by Bethany's latest revelation.
 'Who brought it to you?' Dominic queries.
 'Guess?' Bethany hints.
 'Well, have you decided what you're going to do with it?' Dominic wonders.
 'You mean am I going to destroy it?' Bethany replies. 'I haven't decided yet, I mean it's worthless on a genuine computer. It can only be used on a computer, that was designed by the Cosmos.'
'So what good is it, now?' Dominic asks.
 'Jeff Wilson was murdered, because of what was brought back into my possession of late,' Bethany adds. 'To be honest I think there is more to the information on the disk, than meets the eye. Prior to my laptop being stolen, the information on the disk dated back to the projects of Gemini late 70's, early eighties, and then the Cosmos, 1995 to the year 2000. But, there were certain accounts I was denied logging into, so whatever Carla was concealing, she didn't trust me enough. She knew me inside out, no matter how rehabilitated I was after my psychiatric help, she knew I couldn't mastermind a plan like she could.'
 'But, you successfully protected your sister, by doing away with Wilson, with a little help from myself, don't forget,' Dominic points out.
 'Just like I helped you eight years ago,' Bethany bluntly says.
 'That was a tragedy,' Dominic replies, feeling upset. 'I regret it all the days of my life, what I asked you to do. I was so wrapped up in money problems, the insurance was the only way out.'
 'The money wasn't important to me Dominic, it hurt me too, to set fire to a house with your children inside. I regret James death everyday and since I met up with Charlotte in "Belle Sea", I couldn't help but be nice to her face. I was so wrapped up in my problems, I wanted to test your guilt and you graciously turned your back on me, to care for your wife and daughter, while I tried to rehabilitate myself. How about you?'
 'It's hard Beth, which is why like you said, get over the last year or so, then we can all move on,' Dominic reminds her. 'Do whatever you want with that disk, please leave me and my family out of it. I did you your favour, now give me mine for a change, my wife and daughter have been through enough.'
 Dominic turns and walks towards his car, as the winter sun, slowly begins to set. Bethany takes two paces forward with eyes firmly on Dominic, as he opens his car door.
 'How is Deloris?' Bethany calls.
 'Bearing up,' Dominic acknowledges. 'No, thanks to Bates...ha Bates, that last name suits him perfectly.......doesn't it Beth?'
 'We all have our inner demons,' Bethany sighs.
 'Let's hope Harry doesn't discover yours,' Dominic sarcastically says. 'I mean, your sexual adventures with your step daughter is at minimal now, the blue eyed boy's, Boyfriend's, Ex Wife has moved in.....Good evening Beth.
 Dominic gets into his car and drives off, leaving Bethany a little wary of him. It doesn't seems to bother Dominic, that Bethany has had the disk secretly brought to her, which was once in the possession of the deceased Jeff Wilson, a Jamaican fisherman, Eric Lance, Elaina Carlisle, whoever stole the disk from the Carlisle's apartment and now Bethany. She finds it annoying that people have killed and tried to kill for the information and still are unbeknown to Bethany, due to the fact that Christopher had gone back on his word to Benjamin and has gone to great lengths to get to the bottom of everything in his attempted revenge on Eric Lance. Bethany's cell phone rings she answers it.
 'Hello, sweetheart..........yes, I spoke to him..........well, he doesn't seem to want to get involved..............he despises you after what happened, to be honest I can't say I blame him on that one, you did disappoint me there.................how'd do you mean?...............It wouldn't surprise me..........I'll think of something, you sit tight...........I love you too baby, bye.'

Manhattan, NYC, Joe Hayes apartment, 8:00 P.M. . Joe Hayes enters his one bedroom apartment and finds his window has been forced open. Joe is cautious and he picks up a blunt object and scours around for any intruder. It appears he is the only one in the apartment. After a few moments, he turns on the lights and spots an envelope on the table. He picks it up and inside is a tape recorder and a note to him from Eric Lance. Also are different blank tapes, along with ten thousand dollars in cash. Joe reads the note.
'My apologies for the intrusion, but to outsmart the Cosmos, we have to divert suspicion in everyway possible, as they could be anybody. I paid a random anonymous stranger to give you what was required for your mission to Francis Bay. With your abilities and the items I've given to you, justice will be served. Francis Bay including it's small fishing town, has just a population of over 1200 people and there are certain people, who you may find an interest. Here are their names, Dominic King, Bethany Wilson, Harry Wilson, Rebecca Turner, Emma Wilson and Benjamin Bates. You must choose each individual cautiously in any order you may wish. Your aim is to get them to tell the truth, depending on what questions you ask them. Dominic and Bethany, are your main two culprits, King owns a cafeteria in town. Whilst recording any vital confession, the recorder must be concealed in a safe place or the mission will be jeopardized and your life could be at risk. If you are successful, be sure to deliver all information to the police and tabloids, of which this will be become a federal case. The reason being you'll be alone on this, is what I explained earlier to you. I'm heading for a confession, woman and her sons life is in danger, because of my past. If I'm to spend the rest of my life in jail, then those who are behind to all the hurt and suffering of innocent people, must be brought down. Avoid Chanel Mantel, if I don't end up behind bars, I could end up dead. If you want to make a career out of your abilities, I suggest you begin it, at the furthest deep end. Be careful Joe, remember you only get one shot at this and no second chances. Your mission begins earliest sunrise tomorrow, heading 117 miles east of Long Island. Good Luck Joe, be a hero.
Joe places the note nervously down on the table and sits back in his chair and looks to the ceiling, about ten or so hours away from a vital and dangerous mission.
 'God help me,' Joe whispers to himself.

 Abraham and Elaina's apartment. Abraham returns home to his partially still trashed apartment , as he discovers that Elaina has been no show at her mother's home and finds Eric present.
 'Eric what are you doing here?' Abraham worries.
 'There's something I need to tell you, it's important,' Eric claims.
 'Yeah, well, it can wait, because I just got a call from Elaina's mother,' Abraham informs him. 'She and Andy never showed up.'
 'I know,' Eric confesses.
 Abraham frowns at Eric's admission.

 Kings Cafeteria Apartment, Francis Bay, Long Island. Charlotte turns off the bath taps, as she is preparing for a relaxed soak, while Dominic and Deloris have gone to get in some groceries. As Charlotte is about to step into the bath, she slips backwards and hits her head on the sink, knocking herself out, where she begins to have a reoccurring nightmare from her past.

 

August 1995, seven and a half years ago, Pennsylvania. Dominic is currently not home and neither is Deloris who is hanging out with friends. Charlotte places a pizza in the oven for her young son, James, who is watching the TV comedy 'Friends.' Charlotte insists James doesn't sit too close to the TV and he sits back on the sofa. Charlotte heads back into the kitchen and turns down the temperature on the oven and then informs James, she is going to pick up Deloris and will be just ten minutes. She is adamant that he doesn't answer the door to strangers.
'I'll be fine Mom, honest,' James assures his mother.
'I know you think that you're all grown up, but you're far from it,' Charlotte replies.
'Mom, stop fussing, really, you're only gonna be ten minutes,' James figures. '
That's beside the point, you know how much I love you,' Charlotte says. 'You're my baby boy.'
'Oh Mom.'
 Charlotte kisses her son on the cheek and heads out. Charlotte collects Deloris, who seems to be getting really close with another teenager. Charlotte is worried that her daughter will soon get too seriously involved and get pregnant, but Deloris promises she will not be forced into underage sex. Charlotte tells Deloris, that it will just be herself, Deloris and James having pizza, as Dominic is working late. Deloris points out that Dominic has not been himself and looks really stressed and anxious. Charlotte claims she tried talking to him about it, but insists it's nothing. Returning home, Charlotte and Deloris are horrified to find their home in flames and James trapped inside. Charlotte screams out for her son and demands Deloris dial 911. Charlotte rushes into the firing inferno in an attempt to save her son.
'James!!' Charlotte cries out, coughing.
Peering through the flames and dense smoke, Charlotte tries to spot her son, then she rushes upstairs, with a rug rapped around her body. The fire is way out of control as the doting mother cries out. Suddenly, Charlotte slips and crashes down the staircase and hits her head. Before going fully unconscious, she spots a figure dressed in black, head out the back way. Charlotte tries to make out who it is, but then slips unconscious. Charlotte awakes hours later in hospital to be told the devastating news, that James had died, leaving the family in turmoil. The memory of who the person escaping was, has slipped her mind and she immediately blames herself for James death, as the forensics say the fire started in the kitchen. Charlotte immediately blames herself, as she left a pizza in the oven. But, before she headed out, she turned it off.

Charlotte awakes with Dominic and Deloris attending to her and she sits up. Deloris tends to her injury, as Dominic calls a doctor, as he worries his wife has a serious concussion. Deloris takes her mother into the bedroom and Charlotte shocks her daughter, by suggesting that somebody else was in the house, when James died and that it may have been a deliberate attack and that James was murdered.
'Mom, it's just a trick playing on your mind, Mom it's OK, we all hurt over....' Deloris tries to assure.
'No, you don't understand, I remember now, I turned the oven off and I don't think, James turned it on either. I saw somebody else in the house, before I passed out,' Charlotte adamantly states. Dominic catches the tail end of Charlottes claims and nervously heads back into the bedroom. '
Doctor Gould is on his way,' Dominic whispers.

 Abraham and Elaina's apartment, Manhattan, NYC. Abraham is beside himself, when Eric confesses to his true identity, his crimes, his blackmailing towards Elaina, Emma and Chris and what his intensions were. But, in the end he trusted Elaina enough, to keep vital information safe, until he conjured up a plan to rid Chanel Mantel. Unaware, that Elaina and Andy have escaped seriously and mentally unstable Christopher, Eric informs Abraham that Chris had taken them hostage in order for him to admit his sins, or Christopher would no longer be the good guy. Abraham is so freaked out, he draws his gun on Eric.
'You f***** psycho, what have you done with my family?!' Abraham shouts.
'I haven't done anything to them, I swear. I just told you, who's got them, It's Christopher,' Eric answers, with his hands up.
'Liar, Christopher would never do that, I know him,' Abraham snaps.
'Well, obviously you don't know him as well as you liked to think,' Eric argues. 'He's got it in his head that everyone is against him. I admit, when push comes to shove I have to protect my secrets, no matter what the cost. I wish it didn't have to be that way, but that's the story of my life. But, if you let me help you now, you'll be helping another friend of yours Harry. I knew Harry when he was in high school and I was best friends with his brother Jeff. So if we work together, we can get Elaina and Andy back and protect Harry. I don't care what happens to me after, I can rot in jail for all I care, but please help me now.'
Abraham is eventually convinced and lowers his gun, but is states, that once everything is done, Eric will be punished.
The phone suddenly rings and Abraham answers it. It's Elaina calling from a phone booth, with Andy by her side. Abraham asks her where she is and Elaina scared, informs her husband that they are in Saratoga Springs, a few miles away from where she and Christopher were held hostage. Abraham encourages to Elaina to sit tight and that he's on his way to get her. Abraham and Eric head to the car and are tailed.

Joe Hayes, Apartment. Joe looks at a picture of himself with his family. The memories of living amongst gangsters and having the ability to force people to tell the truth, cost him his fathers his life, his mother her health and his brother is fighting out in Afghanistan. All alone, he is given a task to force the truth of certain people who aren't what them seem, that live in Francis Bay, 117 miles east.

Saratoga Springs, about two hours later, Eric and Abraham reach the springs, and they enter a motel and asks the manager if his wife and son have been present? Without warning, Christopher stumbles in and is met by the man he hates most and the husband of the wife, he kidnapped. Abraham punches Christopher to the floor and draws his gun, while Eric tries to calm him.
'If anything happens to my wife and son, I will shoot you between the eyes,' Abraham threats.
 'Told him everything huh, Eric, bet it took a lot of guts?' Christopher humiliates.
 'All I care about is my family, you'll both be going to jail when this is all over,' Abraham promises. Abraham drags a wounded Christopher up and hand cuffs him and escorts him to the car and locks him in.
'You handcuff me, but not that psycho, where's your loyalty Abs?' Christopher moans. 'I'm only loyal to the ones I love. Lately, that's been a mind wipe for you.'
Suddenly, Elaina calls out to Abraham from a small Café north of the motel. Abraham runs to his wife and son embraces them. Christopher gives Eric evil stares. Elaina attempts to convince Abraham not send Chris to jail and needs psychotherapy instead. A hoodie asks Eric for a light, then without warning taser's him unconscious and kidnaps both him and Chris in Abraham's car. Abraham attempts to stop the runaway vehicle, by drawing his gun, but is mowed down in front of a horrified Elaina and Andy. The car drives off into the distance, leaving Elaina grasping her seriously injured and unconscious soul mate.

 

 Eric Lance Apartment, Manhattan, NYC. Bethany arrives at Eric's apartment and finds the front door ajar. She pushes it open and discovers it ransacked. Bethany immediately suspects Christopher who is now AWOL, has ransacked the apartment in search of the disk, that is now in her possession. Footsteps are then heard coming down the hall and she quickly hides in the bathroom. It's a neighbour who immediately notices the break in and rushes to call the police. Bethany makes herself scarce and escapes down the emergency exit.
 'Christopher what have you done?' Bethany say's to herself.


 Secret Warehouse. Eric and Christopher are tied up and Christopher curses the bad cop for making his life a misery, but Eric argues that both Christopher and Elaina should have kept their noses out and nobody would have got hurt.
 'Abraham is probably dead because of you,' Christopher yells.
 'He might be alright,' Eric thinks. 'And anyway, who are you to blame me for him getting mowed down? If you hadn't gone to great lengths to blackmail me, when you kidnapped Elaina, we wouldn't have got ourselves in this situation.'
 'Well, if you're such a reasonable guy, now you're also tied up, why don't you tell me what's on that disk?' Christopher demands. Before, Eric can say a word, Chanel Mantel enters with some heavies by her side with a smug smile on her face.
 'Look at you two, fighting over something, that even I can't get my hands on,' Chanel whispers.
 'Why don't you ask, my so called girlfriend what's on the disk, hot shot reporter,' Eric sarcastically asks Chris. 'I'm sure the bitch will be much obliged.'
 Chanel walks over to Eric and backhands him.
 'He doesn't trust you Lance, just as much as I didn't,' Chanel slates.
 'It's vice versa then, where you and I are concerned,' Eric counters.
 'You were too careful to trust Elaina with the information of the Cosmos, and somebody else seemed to take it upon themselves to steal it, right from under my nose, now which one of you is bluffing and staging a throw off?'
 'Bluffing?' Eric laughs. 'Oh, so you think I staged a break in at the Carlisle's apartment to throw you off the trail. If I was gonna stage a break in, I would have at least done a more convincing job than that.'
 'Wilson here, thinks you have the brain to fool him, enough for him to threaten murder on Mrs Carlisle's life, if you didn't confess yours sins to her husband, after all, you are a murderer yourself,' Chanel explains.
 'And what are you Chanel, Carla Morrison's lapdog?' Eric chuckles.
 'Wait a minute, this has to do with the Cosmos?' Christopher gasps. 'The secret organization that kidnapped my adopted cousin Jack, nearly four years ago? I could have I been so stupid? You both were part of it...........Morrison, that last name rings a bell. That's my uncle Harry's second wife's maiden name.'
 'He doesn't miss a trick does he Eric?' Chanel points out.
 'So, where is my once upon a time, lover? Eric raises his voice. 'Built herself a new base on Coral Reef has she?'
 'That's what I mean, by missing a trick Eric, you just can't see what's right in front of you, can you?' Chanel puzzles him.
 'I see desperate bitch, out of her depth,' Eric grunts.
 'Well this bitch loved you once upon a time and gave you a new face,' Chanel hints. 'Just like I gave myself one.'
 Eric's jaw drops in shock as he discovers the true identity of Chanel. She is none other, than America's most wanted, head of the once most criminal organization the Cosmos and elder sister to Bethany.....Carla Morrison.
 'Carla?' Eric figures.
 'Yes, Hank, it's me,' Chanel confesses.


Joe Hayes Apartment, Manhattan, NYC. Joe Hayes looks a family picture of when he was young.

Now, alone, he is given a job by Eric Lance to travel 117 miles East to bring justice. But, it's a dangerous task and even though he has the power to get the truth, will he have the power to survive? The journey to Francis Bay, will hopefully be the longest journey of his life.


Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany returns home to find Harry peacefully asleep. As she slips into bed, Harry feels her presence and asks her how her meeting with her friend went? Harry is unaware, where Bethany really went to. Bethany lies and pretends it was a good evening. Next door, in the next bedroom, Rebecca snuggles into Emma's arms as Emma lays awake staring at he ceiling. In Benjamin's cabin house, Benjamin paces up and down, concerned for Christopher's well being.

Sunday 12th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. It's around 9:30 a.m., the Wilson household is still very much asleep, apart from Benjamin next door, who wanders up his living room, worrying himself silly about his missing boyfriend Christopher. The telephone rings in Harry and Bethany's bedroom. A groggy Harry looks at his alarm clock and then picks up the receiver.
 'Hello,' Harry whispers.
It's Elaina calling from a hospital in Manhattan, where Abraham has be rushed for an emergency operation., following his hit run in Saratoga Springs the previous evening.
'Harry, it's Elaina.'
Harry senses something wrong by how she speaks. He sits up and places the phone on his left ear. 'Elaina, what is it? Is something wrong?'
'It's Abraham, he's been involved in a hit and run,' Elaina cries.
'Oh my God, is he OK?' Harry gasps.
Bethany awakes to hear Harry talking on the phone and she sits up, half asleep.
'Who is it?' Bethany asks.
'It's Abraham, he's in the hospital,' Harry tells his wife.
'Abraham is in pretty bad shape Harry,' Elaina informs. 'The doctors have had to relieve swelling on his brain and they've had to put him in an induced coma.
'What are his chances, Elaina?' Harry worries. 'The doctors say he's got a fifty, fifty chance of survival. But the more he stays in a coma, he might not pull through. In other words if he doesn't awake within the next two months, I'll lose my husband and Andy loses his father.'
'Have they caught the driver?' Harry queries.
'It's a long story.'
 'Elaina, we'll be on our way to the city, as soon as possible,' Harry states.
'No, there's no need and it's a two hour drive,' Elaina answers.
 'You're our friend and you need as many, as you need right now,' Harry insists. 'Take care of yourself Elaina, we'll be praying for you, Andy and Abs.'
'Thank you Harry, bye.'
 Harry hangs up and turns to Bethany.
'How bad?' Bethany
'He may not make it,' Harry sighs.
'Poor Elaina, poor Andy,' Bethany groans.
Harry and Bethany get ready for a drive to Manhattan, when Emma and Rebecca enter the kitchen in their pyjamas. The two women wonder where Harry and Bethany are off to in a hurry. Harry informs his daughter and her girlfriend of Abraham's devastating accident and the girl's themselves decide to come along. After getting prepared themselves, the Wilsons are exiting the house, when they hear a commotion coming from Benjamin's cabin house and Benjamin screaming out.
'Christopher!! Christopher!!' Benjamin yells. Bethany takes one pace towards his cabin, when Harry unlocks the car door.
'Don't worry about him, Beth, Chris has probably seen the light too soon anyway,' Rebecca adds.
'Apparently, Christopher has been missing for twenty four hours,' Bethany replies.
'Do you think something bad has happened to him?' Emma acknowledges.
 'I know he was your husband, Emma, but Elaina and Andy need us right now,' Rebecca encourages.
 'But, what if something bad has happened to him, I mean Elaina cared about him and he may not know, that Abraham's in hospital,' Emma figures. (little do they know, he does).
'Look, honey, we don't have time to hang around and debate what to do about Christopher and Benjamin's tantrums,' Harry calls, holding onto the drivers door.
'Or sexual frustrations,' Rebecca sarcastically.
'Hey, you get in the car,' Harry orders.
'Listen, why don't I stay with Benjamin and to help him find Christopher?' Bethany suggests. 'I mean, if we do find him, we can bring him to New York City in my car to see Abraham. That way he can at least show some respect, following his abrupt walk out from his job.'
'Whatever you see best sweetheart,' Harry nods. 'But, try not be too long, Elaina and Andy need friends right now.' Rebecca frowns at Bethany's suggestion, as she hops into the car. Emma hesitates for a moment and turns to Bethany, who walks at a pace towards the cabin house. Even though, Emma and Christopher are not together anymore, she still cares about him.
'Bethany?' Emma calls out. 'Will you be sure to let us know, right away, on Christopher's status?'
'I guarantee it,' Bethany promises.
Emma jumps in the backseat and Harry, Rebecca and Emma head off on their journey to Manhattan. Bethany watches them drive off and she quickly hurries into Benjamin's cabin house. She finds the place trashed and walks into his bedroom and finds him in tatters. They both glare at each other for a few moments, when Bethany notices, Benjamin has hurt his hand from punching the wall in frustration.
 'I'll get something to clean, that up with,' Bethany said.

Harry, Rebecca and Emma are driving west to the city. Rebecca looks into the rear view mirror and notices Emma staring at the ground. She suspects her lover is thinking about her future ex-husband, who is currently missing. Harry glances to his supposed daughter, as he notices she seems pretty tense. Emma cannot virtually switch her feelings off, altogether for Christopher, even though she is now with Rebecca. Both parties of the orgy, a week earlier, were at fault and the only person to suffer the betrayal worse, was Deloris. Emma fears in her mind, that it has something to do with Eric Lance. Little does she know, as well as the Wilsons, that Chris and Eric are a little tied up right now. Driving in the opposite direction, headed towards Francis Bay, is Joe Hayes on a mission to get the crucial truth from Bethany and Dominic, in their part conspiracy with the Cosmos and the truth on Jeff Wilsons death. It's a dangerous mission, in which he's putting his life at stake, especially if he interacts with the sister of the once Cosmos leader. Joe is distracted playing about with his radio and he veers to the left hand side of the road and is headed towards Harry's oncoming car. 'What is this idiot doing?' Harry moans.
The car keeps getting closer and closer. DAAADDDD!!' Rebecca screams. Joe managers to see Harry's car at the last few seconds and steers the wheel abruptly to the right and smashes Harry's mirror off it's hinges. The two men screech to a halt, both Harry and the two girls, as well as Joe, are relieved that it wasn't more serious.

 

  2 miles west of Francis Bay, Long Island. Harry, Rebecca and Emma are relieved that their accident wasn't more serious, as Joe Hayes was driving dangerously on the wrong side of the round. It was fortunate that Joe managed swerve on the nick of time, only managing to take Harry's wing mirror off in the process. Harry notices Rebecca is a little shaken, as is Emma.
'Everyone alright?' Harry asks.
'Yeah, I'm fine,' Rebecca assures. 'Emma?'
'Yeah, I'm ok,' Emma acknowledges.
Harry looks around to his left, and sees Joe Hayes car park up, near the grass verge, with only a gash on the side of his car. He then gets out and stares down at his broken and shattered mirror in the middle of the road. He return to the girls inside the car.
'Stay here, this maniac has got some explaining to do,' Harry insists.
'I'd like to give him a peace of my mind if you don't mind,' Rebecca raises her voice.
'Stay here, and look after each other, I can handle this, I'm a cop after all,' Harry says.
Harry shuts the drivers door and marches across the road in a mood to confront Joe. Joe sits nervously in his car, as Harry approaches. Joe straightens his jacket out and gets out of his sports car and Harry anxiously folds his arms and taps his feet, giving Joe a stern look.
'What, was that about Kiddo?' Harry grunts.
'I'm sorry, man, I just lost sight of what I was doing,' Joe panics. 'It was clumsy of me.'
Clumsy?!' Harry snaps. 'You could have killed myself, my daughter and her girlfriend. I'd say that was more than clumsy. That was dangerous and reckless.'
'Look, let's not get the cops involved, I 'll pay for the damages to your mirror,' Joe insists.
'Well, unfortunately they already are,' Harry bluntly said. 'I'm the local police officer of Francis Bay.'
'Oh shit,' Joe curses. 'Listen it was an honest mistake, please don't take this further.'
'If it wasn't me driving, it could have been somebody else, people have died because of selfish idiots like you,' Harry argues.
'That's unfair,' Joe figures. 'You can't judge me, by one silly mistake.
Rebecca exits the passenger side and walks round the front of Harry's car. Harry hears her footsteps.
'I told you to stay in the car, Becky,' Harry reminds her.
 'What's his sob story?' Rebecca calls.
'Is that your daughter?' Joe queries.
 'Yeah, and she's not to be taken likely, which is why I'm suggesting she stays in the car,' Harry whispers. '
'She really cares about you, that's nice,' Joe notices.
'Yeah, she's been one in a million since her mother died in the September 11th attacks,' Harry informs. 'Although, she has disappointed me embarrassingly recently.'
 
Harry frowns for a moment, realizing he almost told a perfect stranger about his and Rebecca's personal life. Rebecca has the urge to rush over the road and give Joe a peace of her mind, but with her secrets, concerning her true identity and her love for vampire infected Linda Perry, not to forget to mention her sexual moments with Bethany, it would be best if she stayed put.
'Where you headed....?' Harry continues.
'Joe, Joe Hayes.'
'Harry Wilson.' Joe offers a hand and Harry hesitates for a moment, before agreeing to a handshake. Joe momentarily turns away, and smugly smiles to himself, now knowing who he's speaking to. He also realizes, his abilities are in the early stages of forcing him to him the truth.
Both Rebecca and Emma watch from inside the car and Rebecca seems annoyed, by Joes gesture and even more that Harry is actually warming to him.
'I guess there's no hard feelings,' Emma tells Rebecca.
'He's probably a hotshot, trying to worm his way out, as usual,' Rebecca sighs. 'But, Daddy will see right through him you'll see.'
'I hope he takes care of this quickly, Elaina needs us,' Emma adds.
'Just sit tight, he did insist,' Rebecca encourages.
Harry and Joe continue to exchange conversation.
'What are your plans in Francis Bay, if you don't mind me asking?' Harry wonders. 'It must be important if you're nearly running me off the road.'
'Let's just say, I'm looking for that extra bit of adventure in my life,' Joe claims, with a big cheesy grin on his face.
'He has a nerve smiling at your dad like that, considering,' Emma points out.
'I'll say,' Rebecca agrees.
'Where are you and your family headed on this easy like Sunday morning?' Joe queries.
'Oh, we're headed to Manhattan to see a friend at the hospital, he's in a coma following a hit and run. His wife is really distraught and she desperately needs us,' Harry explains, still feeling like he shouldn't be explaining himself to someone, who nearly caused an accident. '
So are you married?' Joe begins.
'Yes, I am, my wife Bethany has stayed behind, she's trying to locate a family member so she can bring him to the hospital,' Harry states.
Joe puts a chewing gum in his mouth, as he knows he can get more, than what Harry is saying from him. And he goes even further. 'You must love your wife, very much?' Joe smirks, chewing on his gum.
'I guess so,' Harry nods. 'But, it's not the same kind of love, I had for my first wife, Tina.
Joe sees his chance. 'Tell me about Tina.'
'She was the love of my life, we met when we were seven and she was my high school sweetheart,' Harry replies confused, by why he is saying what he's saying. 'She was the best wife and mother, a husband could have. We adopted a son too, Jack, but he's been missing for four years.
'I take it, she died in the 9/11 attacks in 2001?' Joe senses.
'Yes, she did, it broke my heart.'
'Do you miss her?'
'There is not a day, that goes by, that I don't think of her,' Harry admits. 'This sounds really selfish on Bethany's part, but if I had a choice between her and Tina, if Tina were still alive, I'd pick Tina, 100%. It's hard to love somebody the same way, you loved your true love. I wish I could close my eyes and turn back time and make everything better forever.'
Harry is bewildered by his confession, as he cannot believe he would do such a thing, almost like it wasn't on purpose, but in his heart, he knew he was telling the truth. Unbeknown to Harry, he was forced into telling the truth, due to Joe ability. What's even more shocking, is that Rebecca heard the admission, whilst standing behind her father.
'How long have you had that hidden?' Rebecca gasps. 'I mean, why would you share your personal feelings with a total stranger, a stranger, who nearly kills us and not me, your daughter?'
 Harry looks to Joe, almost with a brain freeze, as he can't understand, why he would do what he did. Rebecca pulls on Harry's arm. 'Daddy, I think we should leave now, Elaina and Andy need us,' Rebecca worries. Harry keeps glaring at Joe in confusion, before acknowledging Rebecca's plea.
'Listen, forget about the wing mirror, I'll take care of it,' Harry assures Joe. 'But, don't let me catch you driving like a maniac again. Or I'll be taking this further.'
'You're the boss, Harry. And don't worry, you secret's safe with me,' Joe chuckles.
Joe hops back into his sports car and heads for Francis Bay. Harry escorts Rebecca back to the car and begin their journey to Manhattan.
'Daddy, may I speak with you in private later?' Rebecca demands. 'That outburst, has really stunned me, especially where it concerns Tin.............my deceased mother.

 

 Christopher awakes in a massive, barely lit room, which is completely empty of furniture, with the exception of two chairs, he and Eric Lance are tied up in. Groggily he looks to his surroundings, unaware, where he is and what time it is. He turns to his left and sees Eric staring off into space, not even look the bit scared of what the outcome might be. Christopher gives Eric the most dirtiest of looks and Eric looks back at him, without feeling any discomfort to Christopher evils.
 'You can look at me like that as much as you like, it won't solve anything,' Eric whispers.
'You act like you're a victim in all of this, and you're so brazen,' Christopher curses.
 'In case you forgotten, I didn't kidnap a mother and her son and threaten to kill them, if I didn't confess my dark side,' Eric adds. 'Sooner or later, you would have killed both myself and Elaina if you knew we turned on you, what do you have to say to that?' Christopher argues.
'The only reason you're here with me, is because you found an easier way to get back at your wife and use that as an excuse to take revenge on me, well it may backfire in your face,' Eric replies. 'Just in case we don't make it, I'll see you in hell kid.'
Christopher turns away shaking his head in dismay, at how Eric doesn't feel any guilt, with what Christopher has gotten himself into. It was a risk he took, after his and his wife's affairs were exposed, yet he promised to Benjamin he would never go after Eric Lance, after their relationship was made official.
'So if Bethany's sister was the ring leader of the Cosmos this whole time, then Bethany must have had involvement somewhere,' Chris figures.
'A little, ' Eric admits. 'She covered Carla's and herself tracks pretty well. Bethany was so desperate to get her claws into Harry, after Tina died, Bethany had to keep her distance from Carla, but in the background, Carla still lurked. Even when Carla has gone off the radar again, Bethany still follows in her footsteps.'
'Uncle Harry, needs to be warned,' Chris worries.
'Don't go being a hero Chris, you should know the ins and outs of what the Cosmos was, who they employed and what they did to people that tried to interfere. There are still employees of that company still out there, still looking a for a few dollars more, not to forget to mention, what that companies experiments were. They turned people in meta humans for the sake of being rich and by doing so, they were involved in embezzlement, fraud, extortion, murder, perverting the course of justice, they even had Wall Street under their radar, the f****** Pentagon in Washington DC, and you want to be Superman? Well, if you wanna attempt the impossible, be my guest.'
 'Do you think this Carla has Jack near by?' Chris queries.
'It's possible,' Eric acknowledges.
'I hope he hasn't forgotten his family, his adopted family that is. Or was that a sham and not legal either?' Chris sighs.
'Carla has probably brainwashed him by now,' Eric figures.
'He's psychic, did you know that?' Chris said.
 'Yeah, I did, Carla claimed he was born that way,' Eric informs.
 'If he was born that, way, then it must be a genetic thing, either Carla herself has this ability or whoever Jacks birth father is,' Chris explains.
'There is no point using your tabloid skills kiddo, you might not get out of here to print your theories,' Eric warns.
'Do you know who Jacks father is?'
'No, next question.'
Chris rolls his eyes and for a few moments more the two men sit in silence staring at the door, hoping Chanel aka Carla, will acknowledge that they're still tied up. Chris looks down at the floor and notices how disgusting it is and coughs. Eric thinks it's just a way to grab attention or to annoy him.
'I hope Abraham is OK,' Chris breathes.
'Me too,' Eric nods.
 'You lying bastard, you've been killing people all your life, so like you care,' Chris growls.
 'You're right, I don't care, about you that is, you f******, annoying. You would be the one consolation to get me off this f****** planet!! At least Elaina trusted me in the end and don't blame me for Abrahams accident. If you hadn't kidnapped Elaina, this wouldn't have happened,' Eric counters.
'Do you always have an answer to everything?' Chris frowns.
'If you're going to interview me, no, if you're going to piss me off, yes.'
'Do you know, you talk like my father, not my birth father, I never knew my birth father. Not Alfred Benedict either, but in my heart, my real father, Jeff, you have the same sarcasm,' Chris gestures.
'That's maybe because I grew up with Jeff, in Hexville,' Eric confesses. 'Last time I saw Jeff as Hank Willis, was the summer of 1979 and the bastard set me up, and you know what, I felt envy towards him. He was clever. We did a heist from a plane. He got away and I was the fall guy, but in all honesty, I was the bad guy in all of it. Maybe, if I hadn't blackmailed him into the robbery, his parents might have lived.'
'What this got to do with Daddy and uncle Harry's parents?' Chris asks.
'The heist took place, the day their parents were murdered. I suppose you've heard about the mystery for years. Harry and Jeff have debated on it, but it looks like Harry moved on from it.'
'Why did you blackmail, Dad to go ahead with the heist?'
'I had a helping hand with the blackmail, I threatened to bring harm to Harry, for what happened with Tina and Jeff played along, until he put me away and before you ask, I don't know who killed his parents. Did you know Bethany was raped the same night they were killed, by the local policeman?'
'No, I didn't,' Chris answers. ' I Can see why she turned out why she did.'
'She had a baby boy, forced to give him way of course, but they found each other years later,' Eric continues.
 'Where's he to?' Chris curiously asks.
 'Pretty much close to home,' Eric smirks.
'Do you know, who it is?' Chris pushes for answers.
Eric looks Christopher in the eye. 'Don't you already know lover boy?'

 

 

Francis Bay, Long Island. Joe Hayes arrives at the small community town of Francis. He cautiously drives into the bay, considering he nearly caused a near fatal accident, with Harry, Rebecca and Emma on the main road. Even though it's a quiet Sunday morning, he's still not taking any chances. He passes the church and spots the harbour down the hill, figuring that it maybe a good place to park up. Joe heads on down and passes the King's Café which is just on the corner and he remembers the name from Eric Lance's letter. Joe parks just outside. Joe gets out and admires the view. Looking north, he spots the Wilson household and the Lighthouse, about a mile north. There is hardly a soul around and he proceeds to the café, but he notices the closed sign up and he is frustrated. Based on his mission, it doesn't help the fact that the King's Cafeteria is not in working force. He stamps his foot on the floor annoyed and then tries to conjure up his next move. At first he looks up to the window of the apartment and the curtains are closed. Looks like he's in a bit of a pickle. Dominic is central to exposing some truths behind murder and corruption. It was never stated where Bethany lives and it soon dawns on Joe, that he never asked where he and Bethany lived, after the near car accident. Still staring up at the apartment window, a female voice distracts him.
'Can I help you with something?' Deloris surprises, holding a bag of groceries in her hand.
 'Oh, no, I was just checking........' Joe tries to explain.
'Checking out my bedroom window?' Deloris suspects.
'No, it's not like that, I was just....I'm new in the area,' Joe replies. 'Sorry, I know it looks kind of suspicious in what I'm doing, but honestly I don't take advantage of peoples privacy.'
'OK, I believe you, don't get your boxers in a twist,' Deloris assures.
 'I'm Joe.'
'Deloris.'
'That's a beautiful name,' Joe flirts.
'Thank you,' Deloris smiles, almost going red in the face.
'So, you live here?' Joe queries.
Joe thinks it's a good starting point to use his truth power on Deloris.
 'Yeah, I've only been back since the summer, been to college and all,' Deloris answers. 'I work part time here too.'
'Which college did you go to?' Joe wonders.
 'Harvard,' Deloris informs.
 'Wow, going up in the world huh?' Joe grins.
 'You could say that,' Deloris shrugs. 'But, I'm not in a rush to be a lawyer just, yet. My mother needs me right now and my boyfriend shit on me with another man. So, I'm kinda little under the weather right now.'
'Role that back, your boyfriend, was having an affair with another man?' Joe gasps.
'Well, my ex boyfriend now, he's the local fisherman, he lives next door to the Wilsons, a mile north,' Deloris continues. 'You can actually see their lighthouse from here.'
Joe looks north of the Bay to the Lighthouse, realizing that is probably where Bethany lives. Deloris frowns a little, noticing she is telling Joe personal information and she cannot help it.
 'What's his name?' Joe asks.
 'Benjamin, Benjamin Bates.'
'Benjamin Bates huh?' Joe smugly smirks, putting fresh chewing gum in his mouth. Joe turns his attention back to Deloris. 'You live hear with your Mom?'
'And my Dad,' Deloris points out. 'They're the best parents, anyone could ask for.'
 'Any siblings?'
'I had a brother, called James, but he died in a house fire eight years ago,' Deloris sighs. 'My mother always blamed herself for leaving him on his own, but there is nothing neither one of us could do.'
'That's sad, I'm sorry for your loss,' Joe adds.
'We're gonna stay closed for the day,' Deloris claims. 'Sorry if it's inconvenient, but we need some family time together, my mother had a bit of an accident last night.
'Nothing too serious I hope.'
'Just a little concussion, she needs to take it easy.' '
'I understand,' Joe accepts.
 'So, what brings you all this way to the edge of Long Island?'
 'Oh, just change of scenery,' Joe lies. 'The Hustle and Bustle of New York can stress you out sometimes.'
'Agreed,' Deloris acknowledges. 'Yet, you drive all this way on your own.'
'Just as well I did, otherwise I wouldn't have spent so much time in conversation with your beautiful blue eyes,' Joe teases.
'I have to admit I'm rather taken by your manipulating charm,' Deloris chuckles.
'Would it be too much to ask, for you to invite me in for a coffee? Just a coffee?'
'It wouldn't take much for you to seduce me,' Deloris shocks herself.
Joes powers seem to have gotten Deloris to admit her fantasy and they have only been talking a few minutes. Deloris cannot believe she just confessed such a sexual remark, yet Joe does not find it crude or offensive. Deloris backs away a little, leaving Joe somewhat surprised.
'I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me,' Deloris gasps.
 'At least you got that off your chest,' Joe puffs.
 'I feel so embarrassed,' Deloris worries.
'There's only you and me here,' Joe whispers.
 'So how about that coffee?' Joe encourages.
 'Sure why not, but my Dad maybe already awake and my Mom's asleep, so we need to be quiet,' Deloris insists.
'Lead the way sugar.'
 Deloris now begins to feel uncomfortable and awkward, she has just confessed wild sexual fantasies to a stranger, as well as other personal stuff. But, what's even more odd, is she is inviting Joe into the apartment. Deloris though does not suspect, he is the one manipulating her into telling the truth on some past and recent happenings. Joe is now heading into the territory of Dominic King. Deloris leads on and unlocks the café door. Joe turn around and looks north towards the Wilson residence. He quickly takes out the Cosmos necklace and kisses it, before placing it back in his pocket. He turns and heads into the café and Deloris closes and locks the door behind them.

 

Route 495, Long Island. There are uncomfortable silences during Harry, Rebecca and Emma's journey to Manhattan. Rebecca makes continuous glances to Harry and Emma finds this rather odd. A little under half hour ago, Harry had a confrontation with Joe Hayes in which he made an involuntary admission, due to Joes mental power to force people to admit the truth. In Harry's case, he loves Bethany differently, as to his supposedly deceased first wife Tina, who he considers very much the love of his life. This confession was heard by the girl he thinks is his daughter, Rebecca. After one more glance, Harry glances back, as Rebecca turns away.
 'I don't know what came over me,' Harry says. 'It just came out.'
'You told a complete stranger about how you still feel about the woman, you have loved since you were seven years old, my mother,' Rebecca replies. 'Yet, you could never share any of that with me.'
'I never meant for it to come out like it did, I couldn't help it,' Harry frowns.
 'You were supposed to give that guy a lecture on his bad driving skills, not have a marriage guidance session with him,' Rebecca argues.
'It's the truth, I'm just as perplexed by my actions as you are,' Harry tries to explain.
'That is just so f****** weird,' Rebecca groans. 'That's like me walking into the New York Post and telling them to write a story, that I had an orgy in a hotel bedroom with my adopted cousin, his wife and his lover and that his lovers girlfriend came in and caught us.' Emma is stunned by Rebecca's sarcasm and Rebecca looks into the rear view mirror and regrets her quote.
'Sorry, honey, I wouldn't do that honest,' Rebecca assures.
'You said it not me,' Emma adds.
 'And there's me thinking, that what I did was weird,' Harry mumbles.
 
'Oh, Tu Shay, Daddy, another three brownie points for you,' Rebecca moans.
 'Seriously sweetie,' Harry pleads. 'It felt like, I was under somebody else's control. I'm sorry, I can't explain my actions, but if there was any other way, I wouldn't have said those things.'
'Any other way? Rebecca gasps. 'You know how ridiculous you sound? You said it, that's all I know.'
'For your other information Becky, I did share my personal feelings to you, about your mother if you hadn't already forgotten,' Harry continues. 'After your attempted suicide, nearly two weeks ago, I mean how else would you know, that I loved your Mother since she was seven?'
 'I don't think you understand what I was getting at,' Rebecca bluntly answers.
'What were you getting at?'
'Allow me to refresh your memory...Bethany. You could never love Bethany, like you love Tina.'
'I hope you two don't continue this conversation, when we get to the hospital,' Emma interrupts.
'Which hospital?' Rebecca points out.
'Shit, Elaina didn't inform me of that,' Harry realizes.
'Nice going Pap's,' Rebecca laughs sarcastically. 'Not only do you tell a perfect stranger you're personal and emotional feelings, you also seem to hold a three second memory equivalent to a gold fish.'
'How many hospital's are there in New York?' Harry asks.
 'Probably as many men and women living on the moon, how the f*** do I know?' Rebecca starts to cry. 'What am I Steer Of The f****** Navigator?'
'Becky, don't cry,' Harry attempts to calm. 'I'm sorry. I understand you have been through a lot these last few weeks losing your Aunt Clara and your guilt. I don't want to you thinking that I 'm more comfortable opening up to others than my own flesh and blood, it's not like that at all. I love you, you must believe that. What I told that guy, regarding Bethany, I don't know what to say.'
'You can't trust me, that's what it is,' Rebecca figures.
 'I'm just trying to move on, we all should,' Harry suggests. 'It's not easy.'
Rebecca wipes her tears as Emma rubs her shoulders and hands her a tissue. Rebecca acknowledges Emma's comfort. Harry has the need to hold his daughter close, but cannot risk another potential accident. Rebecca turns to her girlfriend and smiles and kisses her quickly on the lips. '
'Your mind must be all over the place taking this nonsense in Emma honey,' Rebecca said.
 'I can't begin to wonder why, you would tell a guy, that almost killed us about personal stuff, Harry,' Emma points out. 'Really, you couldn't help it?'
 'My minds a blank,' Harry whispers.
 'Just so you know, I won't tell Bethany,' Rebecca promises. 'You're my Daddy, you've been good to me, the last year and a half. And you've put me in my place.'
 'It's what fathers do.'
'Well, we're going to the city, without knowing which hospital we're going to,' Rebecca reminds Harry. 'Abraham should picture this in his coma, he'll be awake by the time we eventually find it.'
Suddenly, Harry's car phone rings and Rebecca answers it. It's Elaina.
'Rebecca it's me, I feel such a tool,' Elaina shudders, still worrying on Abraham. 'I forgot to give the name of the hospital where Abraham was brought.'
'You know I must be psychic, I actually just told my Daddy, how dumb he was in not asking which hospital Abraham was taken to,' Rebecca claims. 'How is he?'
 'He's on life support,' Elaina answers. 'God, I wish this was just a bad dream and everything was alright.'
'We all do, and we're all thinking of you and Andy. We're praying for you.'
'Thank you Rebecca, that means a lot,' Elaina appreciates. 'Anyway, it's the Metropolitan Hospital Center.'
'Yeah, it's near the East River, opposite Queens,' Rebecca takes note.
 'Is Emma there with you? Elaina queries.
'Yes, she is, so you want to talk to her?' '
No it's OK, just curious,' Elaina shrugs.
'Bethany is trying to track down Christopher wherever he is, ' Rebecca informs. 'Considering you two were close friends and you were his boss, he should at least be aware of everything.'
Elaina takes a few moments to acknowledge Rebecca's suggestion, knowing full well that Christopher, as well as Eric, were witnesses to the hit and run and abducted.
'Listen, I appreciate the distance you're travelling and the trouble you're going to, it means a lot,' Elaina cries. 'Abraham would feel, so warmed to know that he has kind friends like your families.'
'We'll be with you soon, Elaina, take care.'
'Bye.'
 Rebecca hangs up and Emma suspects Elaina mentioned her in conversation.
'How is he?' Emma asks.
 'He's in a bad shape still.'
'Which hospital are they?' Harry coughs.
 'The Metropolitan, north east of Central Park,' Rebecca states.
 'I hope Abraham pulls through, and whoever tried to kill is ashamed of themselves,' Emma seethes. 'Did she give you any details on what the circumstances were?'
'I'm sure she will tell us in due course,' Rebecca assures Emma.

 

 Kings Café, Francis Bay, Long Island. Deloris offers Joe a coffee and he accepts. Dominic is currently in the bedroom, tending to a concussed, yet recovering Charlotte, who hit her head in the bathroom the previous night. Joe Hayes has manipulated his way into the Kings Apartment to get close to Dominic, who will soon be under the forceful power of Truth from Joe. As Deloris heads into the kitchen to make the coffee, Joe double checks to make sure the tape recorder is safely secure under his jacket and that it is far from view. He has other small separate tapes hidden in his jacket in case each tape runs out. Joe checks the first tape reel and it's half way through it's reel. He hesitates for a moment on whether to continue to record or not. He decides not to for the time being. He notices to frames of photographs on the side board. One of Charlotte, Dominic, Deloris and James, ten years earlier and one of Dominic and Charlotte twenty three years earlier. For a prolonged period of time, he stares at the pictures and from what he heard about James and the close family unit, he begins to wonder whether pursuing Dominic in whether he had a connection to the once criminal organization, the Cosmos, or not is really worth it. He would be destroying a family. Dominic did have a part to play in Jeff Wilsons death, even if he wasn't the one who dealt the final blow. Eric Lance is relying on Joe to bring justice with his special ability. With Eric helpless and tied up, the mission would be totally bust if Joe has second thoughts. But then there is Bethany to consider. Deloris heads back into the living room, with a bright smile and hands Joe his coffee.
 'Thanks beautiful,' Joe grins. 'You don't mind if I call you beautiful do you?'
 'Of course not,' Deloris giggles. 'In fact, I'm rather flattered.'
 'It's a cosy place you have here,' Joe adds. He then points at the family picture. 'That must be your little brother.'
 'Yeah,' Deloris sighs. 'Boy, he was a cocky kid, but I loved him to bits.'
 'He looks a handsome kid,' Joe replies.
 'He must get that from either myself or our mother,' Deloris acknowledges. 'Don't tell my Dad that.'
 'You said they're home,' Joe reminds her. 'If either one of them comes in, how you going to explain me being here?'
 'I'll just say, you're an old college companion,' Deloris assures.
 'That's OK, I don't them thinking I'm a total stranger trying to get you into bed,' Joe figures. 'Then again you did suggest it outside.'
 'Now, that's being cocky,' Deloris points out, pulling her feet up on the sofa and sipping her coffee.
 'Just my nature,' Joe shrugs.
 'I'm not that naïve,' Deloris claims.
 'You wanna bet?' Joe chuckles, knowing full well he has the power to manipulate even the naïve with his truth power.
 Deloris moves close to him, as her attraction to him is almost clear as the light of day. Joe leans forward and touches Deloris face and tenderly strokes her chin. Deloris seems desperate to forget Benjamin once and for all, by falling for a complete stranger, but by doing so she is making herself vulnerable to somebody who is just using her to get to her father. Deloris places her hand on Joes as they glare into each others eyes.
 'You have soft skin,' Joe whispers.
 'You know how to charm a girl don't you?'
 'And you have beautiful eyes too. As blue as the clear sea.'
 Deloris and Joe move in for a passionate, kiss, when suddenly Dominic exits the bedroom and heads down the hall to the living room. The two pull back and sit back, like nothings happened. Joe takes his coffee and then quickly touches his jacket to make sure the tape recorder is still safe. Dominic wonders who the stranger is in his home. Deloris glances around and forces a big cheesy grin. Joe acts chilled.
 'Daddy,' Deloris greets.
 'What's going on here then, cup cake?' Dominic queries.
 'Oh this is a friend of mine from Harvard,' Deloris lies. 'Daddy, this is Joe. Joe, this is my daddy Dominic.'
 'Pleasure to meet you Mr King,' Joe introduces himself.
 'Likewise Joe,' Dominic nods. 'Deloris didn't mention, she had a friend coming over.'
 'Actually Daddy, it was kind of a run in,' Deloris says.
 'Right,' Joe agrees.
 'That's a coincidence,' Dominic answers, raising his eyebrows. 'That's more of a coincidence than Harry and Bethany moving to the Bay a few months ago.'
 'So how long have you been running this place Mr King?' Joe asks.
 'Six years. We moved from Pennsylvania for a fresh start, following the death of my son, two years previous to that,' Dominic explains, then pausing for a moment, making an admission he didn't intend to make.
 Joe seems to have forced an early admission out of Dominic. Deloris frowns at seeing how calm and at ease her father is at telling Joe about James. Joe then glances momentarily to Deloris, to see how curious she is about how easy Dominic would tell him about something that hurt so much. Joe then tries to find a way to change the subject quickly.
 'Say man, you have a nice view here,' Joe distracts pointing out of the window.
 'Man, you have a nice view here,' Dominic replies.
 Both Joe and Deloris frown momentarily, confused by Dominic acknowledgement.
 'I was just joking,' Dominic insists. 'Get it? He said, "Say man, you have a nice view here." So I did exactly what he said.'
 'Right,' Deloris trying to be amused.
 Joe acts impressed. 'You're good man, yeah, you got me there ha ha.'
 'Yeah, the view is good, if you can spot an Ice Berg a hundred miles away,' Dominic sarcastically said.
 'Daddy,' Deloris gasps, annoyed by Dominic choice of words.
 'Sorry, it's just I've had a rough night, my wife, Deloris mother had a fall last night, she's got a bit of concussion.'
 'I hope she gets better soon,' Joe politely gestures.
 'Thank you,' Dominic accepts.
 'Seems like a peaceful town, is Francis Bay any recommendations?' Joe asks.
 'Yeah, stay away from the Wilson Household,' Dominic groans. 'There's some weird kinky goings on up there, especially with Benjamin Bates, his boyfriend, Harry Wilsons daughter and her girlfriend. So if you wanna save yourself embarrassment, check into a motel, just up the road.'
 'Not another word Daddy, I don't want this conversation going any further, it's been humiliating enough for me as it is,' Deloris pleads.
 'It's just Benjamin makes me sick,' Dominic curses. 'How could he, Christopher, and even Rebecca do that to you?'
 'What's this Benjamin character like?' Joe interrupts.
 'He's an asshole, he's his  mothers son alright,' Dominic sighs.
 'What's she like?' Joe continues.

 

 Kings Café Apartment, Francis Bay, Long Island. Joe is very much taking advantage of his ability and is starting to interrogate Dominic in front of his daughter, Deloris. Joe seems to have got a hint from Dominic, that he knows who Benjamin's Mother is. Deloris also finds this very strange, that her father is aware of the identity of her ex lovers Mom. Joe doesn't waste anytime to ask questions and no matter what, it will be totally out of Dominic's control. Joe queries, on what Benjamin's birth mother is like. But, before Dominic can answer, Charlotte is then heard screaming and she rushes out of the bedroom, still carrying the bruise on her head from the previous nights fall. Charlotte is in hysterics and Deloris and Dominic attempt to calm her down. Joe stands disappointed and while the family are distracted, he checks the tape recorder. Joe must wait for the right moment to record again and in a way it was a perfect time for Charlotte to interfere, as he had forgot to set the record button. Charlotte keeps jumping around, crying out. Deloris grabs onto her Mothers arm, while Dominic massages her shoulders to try and relax her.
 'Honey, it's alright,' Dominic tries to calm. 'It was just another bad dream.'
 'It's in there,' Charlotte cries. 'It's trying to get me.'
 'Mom, it's OK, nothing is going to happen,' Deloris assures.
 'But, it's in there, it's a monster,' Charlotte panics.
 Deloris glances over to Joe, who keeps out of the way. Dominic escorts his distraught wife to the sofa and sits her down, beside himself. Charlotte is almost hyperventilating and Deloris hurries to fetch her a glass of water.
 'Breathe easily, breathe easily,' Dominic calms.
 Charlotte manages to catch her breathe and Deloris hands a glass of water to her. Joe blocks the sunlight and this grabs Charlottes attention, as she begins to relax.
 'Oh, hello,' Charlotte replies surprised at the stranger in her apartment.
 'Hi,' Joe acknowledges feeling awkward. 'I'm Joe, I'm a college friend of your daughters.'
 'I feel so embarrassed, I don't know what to say,' Charlotte shivers.
 'Ma'am how could you know I was here?' Joe adds.
 'Mom why don't I take back for a lay down?' Deloris suggests. 'I'll keep you company for a while.'
 'I'm not going back in there, with that creature in there,' Charlotte refuses.
 'Mom it was just a dream,' Deloris insists.
 
'No!!' Charlotte snaps.
 Dominic and Deloris look at each other momentarily. Joe walks to Deloris and touches her shoulder.
 'Listen, I'd better get going,' Joe whispers. 'I'll call by later if it isn't too convenient.'
 'I'll write down my number,' Deloris informs.
 Deloris goes and fetches a piece of paper and writes down her cell phone number. As Joe walks around the sofa, he looks to Dominic, who is too preoccupied in comforting his wife. Joe now knows what Dominic looks like and he will not hesitate to confront Dominic alone, to get whatever truths he is hiding. Deloris hands Joe her cell phone number.
 'Thank you for your hospitality Mr and Mrs King,' Joe generously says.
 'See you round Joe,' Dominic acknowledges.
 'Soon for sure,' Joe hints.
 Deloris walks downstairs with Joe. Charlotte still in terror, refuses to go back to bed, as she claims there is a creature in the bedroom with her and Dominic fears that his wife is suffering from hallucinations following the hit on her head, the previous evening.
 'Would you like me to check the bedroom?' Dominic asks.
 'Please, it's big, I saw it's shadow on the wall, in the hidden sunlight,' Charlotte explains.
 'Alright honey, wait right here, I'll check it out,' Dominic answers.
 Dominic leaves Charlotte on the sofa, as he slowly walks towards the bedroom. Charlotte watches him head towards the room. There is partial light coming through the door, as the curtains are closed covering daylight and he proceeds in. Dominic scours the room, in and around the closet and sideboards, when he spots the shadow of what appears to be the shadow of a large like spider in the sunlight shadow. Dominic smirks to himself and flicks on the bedroom light and is none too surprised to discover it's a large spider on the wall spinning it's web.
 'Honey, do wanna come here please?' Dominic calls.
 'I'd rather not,' Charlotte pleads.
 'You'll be happy to know the monster you thought was in the room, isn't,' Dominic informs.
 Charlotte cautiously walks beside her husband and looks inside and spots the spider crawling up the wall.
 'That's your creature,' Dominic points.
 'Really?' Charlotte shakes, needing reassurance.
 Dominic flicks off the light and the big shadow of the spider lingers in the sunlight shadow. Charlotte sighs with relief.
 'I'm losing my mind aren't I?' Charlotte worries.
 'No way,' Dominic assures. 'You have a concussion and it's quite normal for this to happen. But, I would be happier if we took you to a hospital, just to be on the safe side.
 'Sick of hospitals, I just want to be with my family,' Charlotte refuses.
 Dominic puts his arms around Charlotte and tells her he will rid of the spider and that she must have some extra rest.
 'I'll fetch you some soup, if you like,' Dominic offers.
 'That boy, what was his name?' Charlotte queries.
 'Joe.'
 'He seems like a nice guy. I'm sure our Deloris could do better with him, than that rat Benjamin.'
 'Benjamin Bates is a forgotten subject as far as we're concerned,' Dominic adds.
 Dominic frowns momentarily on the subject on Benjamin, as Joe began to ask questions regarding him and Dominic involuntarily answered his queries and this makes him wonder why, he would answer to a stranger how he felt towards his daughter Ex, when he claims to his wife, that Benjamin is a now forgotten subject?
 'What is it?' Charlotte wonders.
 'Oh nothing, just day dreaming,' Dominic lies. 'Right, back to bed you, I'll fetch you that soup.'
 Dominic kisses Charlotte on the lips and exits the bedroom. Curiously he wanders to the window and looks down below and spots Joe embracing Deloris. Joe walks to his car, as Deloris heads back on in. Dominic begins to find the recent events rather odd and Deloris re-enters the apartment, as he starts to open a tin of Tomato Soup and place it in the microwave. Deloris approaches her father.
 'Mom OK?' Deloris asks.
 'Yeah, she's fine,' Dominic nods. 'It was just a spider in the end, that reminds me, need a glass to catch it and through it away.'
 'Good idea, I'll leave that to you,' Deloris agrees. 'Daddy, there's something we need to discuss.'
 'Fire away, pumpkin.'
 'What was that you told Joe, about Benjamin's mother?' Deloris begins.
 Dominic hesitates for a moment before expressing an denying laugh.
 'I don't know Benjamin's mother, who is she?'
 'Jes, that's funny Dad, because you seemed certain who she was, when you classed Benjamin as 'He's his mothers son.'
 'I don't recall saying that,' Dominic denies.
 'Daddy, you said those exact words in front of me, not to forget to mention, that Joe should go nowhere near the Wilsons, due to some weird sexual goings on. That's almost making a punt, on me catching Benjamin in his orgy, with Chris, Rebecca and Emma,' Deloris reminds her father in a loud tone. 'Daddy what's going on?'
 'I don't know,' Dominic shrugs, beginning to look guilty.
 'Daddy, do you know Benjamin's mother?'
 'I've just told you, I don't know,' Dominic sarcastically replies.
 'I don't buy it,' Deloris argues. 'And why would you blurt shit out like that to Joe, when I'm stood directly beside you?'
 'And why was he so interested in knowing, what goes on in our lives anyway?' Dominic counters. 'Was he like that at college? Being nosey?'
 'We didn't go to College, I just met him out in the street, about half hour ago,' Deloris confesses.
 'Then what did you invite him in for?' Dominic moans.
 'He seemed like a nice guy.'
 'Benjamin Bates seemed like a nice guy and look what the Mother****** did you.'
 'Yes, I know.'
 'What did you talk about?'
 Deloris too hesitates, a she realizes the similarities between hers and Dominic's interactions with Joe and how they acted and responded to his strange and curious questions concerning what they are aware of or do in life. This scares Deloris a little. Dominic senses something is not right, as worries for his daughter.
 'Daddy, uh, I can't answer that either, I feel ashamed,' Deloris gasps. 'I kinda mentioned James in conversation as well as other stuff.'
 Dominic grips his daughters shoulders.
 'You listen to me, you stay away from this Joe Hayes, he could be dangerous,' Dominic demands.
 'He's got my number,' Deloris panics.
 'If and when he calls you, tell him you'll agree to a meeting. Only he won't be meeting you, he'll be seeing me instead.'
 'Daddy, don't do anything stupid, Mom has had enough stress for a life time,' Deloris begs.
 'I'll just put him straight and he will not hesitate to leave town for good. Now lets get rid of this spider for your mother, before she screams the place down.'

 

 

 Metropolitan Hospital Center, Manhattan, NYC. It's nearly midday. Elaina remains vigil at her critically injured husbands bedside. Abraham is placed in a coma following the hit and run in Saratoga Springs, which was witnessed by both his wife and son. Abraham was struck by his own car, which was stolen, with a kidnapped Chris and Eric inside. Up to two months, the doctors are willing to keep Abraham alive on Life Support, but it's critical that Abraham regains consciousness within that period, or Elaina finds herself a widow. Andy is currently sedated and asleep in another room, due to the shock at what he witnessed the previous evening. Elaina eyes don't move away from her unresponsive husband. She then glances to the heart rate monitor, hoping that it remains a stable green. Elaina places her hand on his and strokes it. Life without her soul mate would be so unbearable. The only decent thing left in her, if Abraham went to the heavens, would be her son Andy. Elaina stands up kisses Abraham on the forehead and then briefly exits the room, when Harry, Rebecca and Emma enter the ward. Emma hurries to Elaina and embraces her tightly.
 'Oh, Elaina, I'm so sorry,' Emma comforts. 'How awful for you.'
 Harry and Rebecca both embrace Elaina.
 'How is he?' Harry asks.
 'Well, he's stable. They've relieved the pressure on his brain, but he's in a coma,' Elaina informs.
 'Is he gonna be OK?' Rebecca whispers.
 'The doctors say, that of he doesn't regain consciousness within the next two months, I lose him,' Elaina explains.
 The three ladies take a seat, as Harry stays standing. Emma holds onto Elaina's hand.
 'Where's Andy, how is he?' Emma wonders.
 'He's in another room, he's sedated,' Elaina replies. 'Poor boy is devastated.
 'What happened?' Rebecca queries.
 'It's a long story, I'd rather not go into it right, now,' Elaina insists. 'I've refused questioning by the police last night, but I can't avoid it today, when they come by.'
 'Understood,' Rebecca acknowledges.
 'If you need anything, we're here for you,' Harry adds.
 'That's very kind of you Harry,' Elaina appreciates.
 'Bethany is talking to Benjamin to see if they can find Chris,' Emma tells Elaina.
 Elaina nods without a word. Elaina knows full well, what happened to Christopher. Abraham was placing him under arrest for kidnapping her. He was then taken in Abrahams car along with Eric Lance, with the assailant who took them in Abrahams car and mowed him down, without hesitation.
 'Would you like a cup of coffee or something?' Harry offers.
 'That will be lovely Harry, thank you,' Elaina accepts. 'You may need to check downstairs, that vending machine is not working.'
 
'Sure thing, will be right back,' Harry answers.
 'I'll come with you,' Rebecca said.
 Harry and Rebecca head to the elevator, leaving Elaina and Emma together. While waiting at the elevator, cancer patient Gloria Lang spots Rebecca, the other side of the waiting room and seems to find her familiar. Alicia takes a few paces forward. Gloria smiles to herself and tries to catch up to Rebecca, as she enters the elevator with Harry.
 'Alicia?' Gloria calls out. 'Alicia?'
 Rebecca spots Gloria running to the elevator and trying to hold her nerve, allows the elevator doors to close on. Gloria is annoyed, but she manages to enter the next elevator. Now, the coast is clear Elaina prepares to tell Emma the truth, about the events the previous evening.
 'Emma, Bethany is wasting her time, finding Christopher,' Elaina begins.
 'What do you mean?' Emma frowns.
 'Promise me to keep this to yourself?' Elaina pleads.
 'You know where he is?' Emma figures.
 'Not now I don't,' Elaina claims. 'Christopher kidnapped Andy and myself yesterday.'
 'What?!' Emma gasps.
 'If I hadn't acted, I think he would have killed us both.'
 'Elaina, Christopher is no angel like myself, but he's not dangerous, why would you say something like that?' Emma sighs.
 'Chris saw Eric Lance hand me a disk with vital information on it and he saw got it into his head, I was betraying him and I guess he saw red. I mean, he's divorcing you, he's questioned his sexuality. He lost his parents and best friend in recent years, I suppose he thinks he has nothing left to lose,' Elaina suspects.
 'Do you think, he broke into your apartment?' Emma asks.
 'He denied it, but he could be one out of three who may have. Himself, Eric and Chanel Mantel.'
 'Is this Chanel dangerous too?'
 'Either way, Eric and Chanel have betrayed each other.'
 'Was it Chris that ran down Abraham?'
 'No,' Elaina quickly defends. 'Abraham and Eric travelled to Saratoga Springs. Eric confessed everything to Abs and Abs was so insisting on prosecuting Christopher, but I wanted Chris to seek therapy instead......that's when it happened.'
 'The hit and run?' Emma guesses.
 'We were too preoccupied in being reunited, when Eric and Chris were thrown into Abs car and the car just sped up the road. Abs took out his gun, but his car just came at him, to intentionally harm him. And that's it.'
 'So Christopher could be anywhere?' Emma says.
 'Wherever he is, he won't be having a holiday.'
 'Do you suspect his life's in danger?'
 'Right now, Emma I'm more concerned for my husband, but I thought I'd better give you the full details, I mean after all he still is your husband, whether you still love him or not,' Elaina states.
 Emma now feels a growing concern for her ex husband to be. Despite there differences and living their separate lives, Emma still feels a connection to Christopher. Christopher's life could be in danger and not only that, he is hurting in himself. He fears his life has took a wrong turn in life and he thinks that taking drastic action, then he has nothing to lose. This must mean, he can't love Benjamin all that much. Two police officers then enter the ward.
 'What's on that disk, Lance gave you?' Emma questions.
 'I have no idea, but whoever broke into my home, showed how desperate they were to get it,' Elaina shrugs.
 'Well, we can tell the cops everything, Eric isn't here now,' Emma thinks.
 'No, let me handle this,' Elaina demands. 'It's not so simple as you think.'
 'How do you mean?'
 'Apparently, Lance is trying to protect Harry,' Elaina informs.
 'Harry?'
 'Just be quiet and leave it to me,' Elaina orders.
 The two officers approach the grieving wife.
 'Hello again, Mrs Carlisle, we're sorry to intrude,' officer 1 nods.
 'Is this gonna take long, I need to get back to my critically ill husband?' Elaina huffs.
 'This is a very serious crime, we need to take everything into account,' officer 2 insists.
 'Emma could you leave us alone please, this may take a while?' Elaina groans.
 'No problem, I'll be downstairs with Rebecca and Harry,' Emma agrees.
 Emma heads to the elevator, leaving her to ponder, on what to do about the situation on a missing Christopher. Does she tell Harry or does she figure out what to do on her own?

 

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Joe Hayes is on his way half a mile shy of the Bay, to the Wilson Household. Joe has the urge to sneeze and when he does, he accidently jerks the wheel and almost crashes into a patrol car. Joe had a previous accident with Harry, earlier in the morning, he sure doesn't need another one. Trying to complete the mission of all missions set by Eric Lance doesn't need anymore hiccups and Dominic already suspects foul play in Joe, as both he and Deloris have succumb to the power of forceful truth. Out steps Ted from his police car and proceeds over to Joe, who feels a little embarrassed.
 'That was a little reckless, wasn't it sir?' Ted adds.
 'Sorry officer, I sneezed, lost concentration,' Joe replies.
 'If I may add, you were driving a little bit to close to forty or so,' Ted states.
 'Is that bad officer?' Joe attempts to act dumb.
 'It is if you're driving a thirty mile drive zone,' Ted informs. 'I'm sure you've learnt the highway code.'
 'Uh yeah,' Joe claims.
 Ted looks at Joes car and scours around. This makes Joe a little nervous. Ted walks around the vehicle and notices a huge scratch mark near Joe drivers door, which was caused by his reckless driving, when he smashed Harry's wing mirror off, earlier on. Ted turns his attentions back to Joe.
 'Can you explain this?' Ted points.
 'Sure, vandals,' Joe lies. 'I live in one of the roughest areas of New York City.'
 'Really?' Ted doubts. 'What brings you here in such a hurry?'
 'Change of scenery,' Joe says.
 'Well, then I suggest you change your driving skills in future, if don't want it so rough,' Ted insists.
 'Sorry, are you going to book me, I am kind of new around here?' Joe sighs.
 'Maybe, maybe not,' Ted shrugs.
 'What do mean, maybe, maybe not?' Joe frowns.
 'You see, I usually judge a book by it's cover, I judge women by how they dress and I judge people who are vulnerable,' Ted admits. 'I usually envy those, who think they've got the better of me. And if I don't like it, I get my own back.'
 Joe realizes his power has taken affect on officer Ted and decides to ask more questions in Teds motives.
 'I'm surprised nobody has laid one on you, you look like the type that needs being put down a peg or two,' Joe said.
 'To be honest, my colleague Harry Wilson, hit me prior to Christmas at his house party, I asked him if I could f*** his wife, Bethany,' Ted involuntarily confesses.
 'What other skeletons do you have in your closet officer?' Joe questions.
 'I have evaded Tax payment of up to thirty thousand dollars and my real name isn't Ted, it's Darren Baines.'
 Ted cannot believe he's just admitted all his darkest secrets to a complete stranger and he feels embarrassed.
 'What did you do to me?' Ted rages.
 'Looks like you messed with the wrong cop, Joe,' Joe gasps.
 Ted looks around to make sure nobody is looking and Joe senses that Ted is going to draw his pistol, so Joe steps on the gas and accelerates fast. Ted fears for his future and jumps into his police car and chases after Joe. Joe has no intensions on leaving town, as he was given instructions that America Most wanted criminal and her accomplices were brought down. Joe has so far hit some snags on the way and will not be obstructed this time, not even by a phony cop. Joe spots the Wilson residence and speeds alongside the estuary into the driveway. Joe sees that a car is parked up outside, as well as Benjamin's truck. Joe heads to the front door and profusely hits on it. Joe can hear Teds car heading up the road and he continues to panic. Suddenly, Bethany appears from Benjamin's cabin house and finds Joe pounding on the front door.
 'What the hell are you doing?!' Bethany shouts.
 'Do you live here?' Joe asks.
 'Yes, I do, not that it's any of your business,' Bethany curses.
 'Ma'am, I need to use your phone, there's a man pretending to be a cop and now he's after me,' Joe tries to explain.
 'Why should I believe you?'
 'Look Ma'am I know I seem crazy, but he'll be here any second, I promise, I'm not dangerous, I have nothing on me, trust me,' Joe pleads.
 Bethany spots Teds patrol car heading up the road and Bethany agrees with Joe and tells him to head on inside, so Bethany can query Joes claims and he runs on inside the house. Its not the first time Bethany has let complete strangers into her home. Ted pulls up and places his hand firmly against his gun belt, as Bethany walks over.
 'What's going on Ted?' Bethany queries.
 'Bethany, that man is dangerous, I would appreciate it if you'd step aside,' Ted orders.
 'What's he done wrong?' Bethany asks.
 'Not your concern Beth,' Ted argues.
 'Well, if you considering gunning down somebody in my home, then I'm making it my business,' Bethany argues.
 'He's committed a driving felony and he drove off, after he refused to show me his drivers licence,' Ted fibs.
 'He thinks you're not who you say you are,' Bethany points out.
 'And you believe him, Jesus Christ Beth, help me out, here, huh?'
 'OK, if I encourage the young man to come out, will you not take out your gun?' Bethany calms.
 'Not even for you?' Ted jokes
 'No, that gun, stays in your pants,' Bethany sternly expresses.
 Bethany heads back towards the house and encourages Joe to come out. It seems Joe won't acknowledge Bethany, but then he re-appears. Little does both Bethany and Ted know, that they are being recorded. Joe stands just inside the door frame. Ted tries to keep his patience.
 'Alright, fella, come outside and lets settle this sensibly,' Ted calls. 'Let's not be hasty.'
 'No, lets not asshole,' Joe sarcastically replies. 'Tell Bethany, what you told me, it's true isn't it?'
 'Yes, it is, I'm a tax evader and my real name is Darren Baines,' Ted admits, in front of a stunned Bethany.
 Ted is shocked again, he's admitted something, that was totally out of his control and now his confession has now been heard by his colleagues wife. Ted draws his gun and fires at Joe, but he misses and Bethany attempts to get the gun from Teds grasp.
 'Benjamin! Benjamin!!' Bethany calls.
 Ted shoves Bethany backwards and knocks her out, with the gun. Ted looks to Benjamin's cabin, but he's no show. Ted picks up Bethany and heads into the house and figures that Joe has made an attempt to escape, but strangely enough, he hasn't. Is Joe using Teds madness as his advantage, as using this latest hostage situation to question Bethany, when she awakens. Next door, Benjamin sees that Teds patrol is outside and he starts to ponder on what to do. Benjamin purposely looks at himself in the mirror and smirks. He glances momentarily looks to the Wilson house and then back to his reflection.
 'Don't worry mother, Benita will arise again.....soon,' Benjamin smiles to himself.
 Who is Benita?

 The Kings Café , Dominic looks on Deloris comforting Charlotte and then grabs his jacket. He calls out to his wife and daughter.
 'I'm just heading out for a while, won't be long,' Dominic speaks.
 'Dominic?' Charlotte calls out.
 'Yeah?'
 'I love you.'
 'I love you too honey.'
 'James would be proud to know you were his Daddy, if he were here now.'
 Dominic's eyes fill with tears, knowing the truth from eight years earlier.
 'I know sweetie, I know. Deloris look after your mother.'
 Dominic heads out and jumps in his car. Where's he headed?

 

Officer Ted Sumner orders Joe to tie an unconscious Bethany up on a kitchen chair, brought into the dining, whilst he has Joe at gunpoint. Ted quickly draws the curtains to make sure nobody gets suspicious of the current hostage. He also rips out the phone line and orders Joe to hand over his cell phone. Joe is reluctant to hand it over, as Joe didn't expect his mission to escalate into this. It means now Joe has a great chance for Bethany to confess her darkest secrets, whilst tied up and being recorded. Benjamin seems to make no attempt to make an appearance from his cabin house next door. Ted tells Joe to fetch a bowl of water and that he's got both the kitchen and living rooms covered from the hall and that if he makes any attempt to escape, he will take brutal force. Joe Hayes grabs a bowl and fills it up with cold water. Joe brings in the bowl.
 'OK, hot shot, pour it over the bitch,' Ted demands.
 'Is that what you call all your girlfriends?' Joe sarcastically acknowledges.
 'Just pour the water of the bitch,' Ted menacingly orders, pointing his gun directly at Joe.
 Joe does asked and chucks the cold water right over Bethany's head and she instantly regains consciousness, gasping for breath and the chill surrounds her body. Bethany has a headache following the hit she took from Ted. Ted shoves Joe onto a seat, as he waits for Bethany to regain full consciousness. Bethany looks up and discovers she is tied to a chair and that Ted and herself and Joe at gun.
 'Nice to have you back with us Beth,' Ted smirks. 'Look I'm sorry it has to be this way, but now I have no choice, no thanks to this asshole.'
 'You said those things not me man,' Joe adds.
 'How long will Harry be gone?' Ted queries.
 'He went to New York, with Rebecca and Emma, they may be a few hours,' Bethany informs.
 'Good, then we won't be disturbed, while I make my deal with you,' Ted says.
 'What do you mean deal?' A woozy Bethany whispers.
 'I need money, now you two know the truth about me,' Ted answers, pacing up and down the dining room.
 'My neighbour, is only next door, he may already know what's going on and calling the police,' Bethany figures.
 'I'll take my chances,' Ted insists.
 'Look man, it doesn't have to be like this, I only come into town for a day trip,' Joe lies.
 'Why I told you the truth, I'll never know,' Ted sighs, gripping his weapon tightly.
 Suddenly, a car can be heard pulling up outside. Ted takes caution, as he points the gun in the way of Joe. Out of the car, gets Dominic. He spots Ted's patrol car parked up outside and then two bullet holes in the front of the house. This makes Dominic a little suspicious. Dominic looks to Benjamin's cabin house and then the Lighthouse. Everything is silent. Dominic then slowly proceeds to the front door. Dominic doesn't feel, that everything is normal, but he attempts to brush this off and knocks on the door. Ted has his gun firmly against Joes head, ready to take his necessary action, if Joe calls for help.
 'Harry? Bethany?' Dominic calls.
 An injured Bethany recognizes Dominic's voice and has the urge to call out, but knowing how dangerous Ted is, she can't take the chance. Joe stares profusely at Bethany, knowing full well, that she and Dominic are the ones that Eric Lance wants on his radar. When Ted looks back to the door and with Bethany distracted, Joe quickly checks inside his shirt and finds that his tape recorder is still playing. Desperately in need of a reel, Joe comes up with his own agenda option.
 'You may want to ask that man in,' Joe abruptly speaks.
 'Now, why would I want to do that?' Ted frowns.
 'Yeah, why would want Dominic involved?' Bethany wonders, getting a bit suspicious.
 'Well, considering he's a friend of yours, and you're all tied up and I'm passing through, he maybe able to help this joke of a cop out,' Joe explains.
 'I'll cop you out in a minute you interfering little Prick, if you insult me one more time,' Ted threats. 'And no, I can't allow that man into the house.'
 'Just a suggestion, I mean he seems like the genuine type,' Joe states.
 'What do mean by that, do you know him?' Bethany sighs.
 'Yeah, I know his daughter, Deloris from College,' Joe fibs. 'I heard she lived in town and I was passing through.'
 Bethany glances to Ted as he starts to think. Ted starts to take Joes suggestion into consideration and then to Bethany. Dominic waits a few more seconds before retreating back to his car. He then quickly glances back to Benjamin's cabin house. Suddenly, Joe Hayes makes an appearance acting cool. Dominic is shocked to find the man, who was brought into his by Deloris, now at the Wilson residence.
 'What the hell are you doing here?' Dominic gasps.
 
'What the hell are you doing here?' Joe counters, braving a big grin.
 Dominic angrily, but slowly walks towards the young man, who manipulated his daughter and himself, less than three hours ago.
 'I came here to see if Bethany was alone, and if she had a visit from somebody, who is asking suspicious questions and ones that are very personal and very serious,' Dominic answers, under the control of Joes power again. 'It looks like you're already here. What are you asking this time?'
 'What do you think I'm asking?' Joe continues to interrogate.
 'That is one question, you should never ask,' Dominic suggests.
 'What do you mean by that?' Joe smirks.
 'It could get you killed,' Dominic warns.
  Without warning, Ted appears with his gun pointed directly at Dominic. Dominic is caught off guard.
 'You were right Joe, he actually does sound the perfect distraction,' Ted chuckles. 'What's your secret Dom?'
 'Believe me Ted, you ain't seen nothing yet,' Joe cunningly smiles.

 

Metropolitan Hospital Center, Manhattan, NYC. Harry insist that Rebecca and Emma return upstairs to see if the police have finished with their inquires into Abrahams hit and run. Rebecca encourages Harry to leave it for a while and that they take a walk outside for a while. Emma suspects Rebecca feels uncomfortable about something, but Rebecca denies this.
 'Are you sure, you look anxious about something,' Emma said.
 'Yeah, you've almost been jumping on the spot the last few minutes, settle down,' Harry encourages.
 'Sorry, I'm just worried about Abraham,' Rebecca claims.
 Truth is Rebecca has clapped eyes on a familiar face from her past, Gloria Lang.
 'Look, I'm just going to the ladies room to freshen up, I'll be back in minute,' Rebecca nervously tells his father and girlfriend.
 Rebecca heads to the bathroom, leaving Harry and Emma feeling for her.
 'Poor girl, after what she's been through,' Harry notices. 'Losing her mother sixteen months ago, the attack by Linda Perry, losing her aunt Clara and then trying to take her own life. Whatever next?'
 Rebecca turns on the faucet and throws cold water over her face to cool her down and then she looks up and freezes on the spot, when she spots a former friend in the mirror. Twenty Two year old, Gloria Lang.
 'Hi Alicia,' Gloria smiles.
 'Who?' Rebecca acts dumb.
 'Alicia it's me,' Gloria reintroduces.
 'Sorry, you got the wrong girl,' Rebecca attempts to avoid.
 'Why are you being like this, you avoided me at the elevator and now,' Gloria worries. 'Alicia, how can you say, you've never seen me before? It's only been two and half years.'
 'You just wouldn't understand.'

Francis Bay, Long Island. Dominic has now been brought into the fray of the hostage situation at the Wilson Household, with a little help from Joe Hayes, who is taking drastic measures to try and complete the mission in task, asked for by Eric Lance, who himself is a little tied up somewhere, along with Christopher. Dominic begins to become alarmed, when he sees Bethany tied up with a cut above her head. Dominic suspects that both Ted and Joe are in a plot together, seeing as Ted isn't playing your friendly neighbourhood police officer anymore. Ted demands Dominic take a seat and he reluctantly does and gives Joe the evil eye.
 'Just so you know, I ain't in alliance with him,' Joe tells Dominic.
 'Funny, it was you that suggested, he come in and help with my problem, in the first place,' Ted interrupts. 'So what was that all about out there Dominic? Don't recall you ever making them kind of violent threats before. What secrets have you got in the closet, that this stranger seems to think?'
 'I have no idea, but he's a stranger to my daughter and I'd like him to stay away from my family in future,' Dominic claims. 'Now, I feel exactly the same way about you.'
 'Well, before I do say my farewells to this beloved fishing town, I need your assistance,' Ted continues, sit down in a space where he's got full view of Bethany, Dominic and Joe.
 'Assistance?' Dominic questions. 'I didn't realize taking citizens hostage, was a new tactic in serve and protect.'
 'Those days are over and if you aren't careful, I may use another tactic and it won't be clean pretty,' Ted threats.
 Dominic turns to Joe, the stranger who encouraged Deloris to invite him into the café apartment a few hours earlier. Dominic wonders why Joe would insist on choosing him, to help a desperate cop, with a fake identity, run away. It soon dawns on Dominic, that there may be something in it for him.
 'Tell me, Joe, if that's who you say you are, why are you helping him?' Dominic whispers. 'Is this been a plan all along? A set up or what?'
 'Maybe, you never know, you might accidently set yourself up, Dom,' Joe grins.
 'F*** you, you asshole,' Dominic curses. 'If you had a decent bone in your body, you would have left me and my family out of your shitty games.' Dominic turns back to Ted. 'Alright what do you want me for?'
 'Money,' Ted says.
 'OK, how much?' Dominic queries.
 'A Hundred Thousand Dollars.........cash.'
 'Whoa, that's a large figure, but I don't have that sort of money,' Dominic states.
 'You don't, but the Bitch does,' Joe pointing his pistol towards Bethany.
 'I don't know what it is, but a lot of people, have been trying to swindle me out of cash recently,' Bethany groans.
 'Actually, Bethany, that is your husbands money I'm trying get my hands on, your just the beneficiary for if and when poor Harry hits the turf,' Ted sarcastically answers.
 'OK, so you want my husbands money, but can we at least make the sum a little lower,' Bethany suggests, beginning to sweat.
 'Do I need to remind you, who's holding your life at stake here, Bitch?' Ted snaps.
 'Sounds like your friendly neighbourhood cop, doesn't give a shit anymore Mrs Wilson,' Joe shrugs.
 'Why don't you shut up, you're not helping,' Bethany slates.
 Suddenly, a click is heard. It's the tape inside, Joes jacket stopping. Ted jumps out his seat and the noise startles both Dominic and Bethany. Ted wonders what it could be, as he can't take any chances, now the truth about him, has got out, thanks to the power of Joes truth power.
 'What was that?' Ted panics.
 'I don't know, it's probably just a door coming opening or something,' Bethany sighs. 'Look I need a glass of water, I'm burning up.'
 'That's a shame,' Ted grunts.
 'Listen, why don't you put me in them ropes instead?' Dominic offers. 'It's not like Bethany, can go anywhere.'
 'But, your important, to my freedom,' Ted reminds Dominic.
 'Even if it's only until, we decide how we help you get it,' Dominic pleads.
 Ted takes a few moments to consider and the agrees. Dominic unties a dreary Bethany, whilst Ted keeps guard of no sudden movements, even from Joe. Ted then orders Bethany to tie Dominic to the chair and after a struggle, Dominic is unable to move. Bethany feels the pain from the hit, she took from Ted's gun and she touches her forehead and notices there is still a bit of a wound.
 'I need to clean this up,' Bethany said.
 'OK, let me help,' Ted smugly nods.
 Without hesitation, he yanks a table cover off the table, from under a vase of flowers, which smashes on the ground. He throws the cover to Bethany and suggests she use it, to help her with the wound.
 'You're a real harsh guy, aren't you?' Bethany adds.
 'I think he's still pissed that Harry, wouldn't let him f*** you,' Joe points out.
 'Is this kid for real?' Dominic gasps. 'You're starting to get on my f***** nerves, and when I get out of these ropes, I'm gonna kick your ass.'
 'If you get out of them,' Joe cheekily smiles.
 'Well, if I Don't, then Ted doesn't get his money and then hopefully, he shoots you.'
 Joe cautiously touches his jacket and realizes he has to change the tape in his jacket. Joe doesn't want to fail Eric Lance and he didn't come all the way to the far reaches of Long Island for his mission to go bust. Joe turns to Ted.
 'Hey copper, is alright to take a piss?' Joe asks.
 'As if I'm gonna let you do that,' Ted frowns.
 'C'mon dude I don't wanna piss myself,' Joe argues.
 'The way things are going, by the end of the day, it might be irrelevant if you do,' Bethany replies.
 'I don't want my last moments being remembered for having piss stains in my Calvin Klein under pants,' Joe moans.
 'You sure love yourself don't you?' Dominic laughs.
 'Sure, you can take a piss, but you're not leaving this room,' Ted insists.
 Bethany grabs a vase and empties the flowers and water onto the floor and hands it to Joe. Dominic shakes his head.
 'I wouldn't do him any favours either, Beth,' Dominic snaps. 'He's been interrogating my family and I don't know how he did it, but I'd avoid answering his questions. I hope you have ears plugs around here. Joe is obviously up to something.'
 'I'm am here you know,' Joe curses.
 'Turn around when you do it,' Ted demands. 'After all, a Bitch is present.'
 Joe turns and starts unzip his jeans, and does his duty, but at the same time, changes the tape, and places a new one into the cassette and presses the record button. He zips up and zips up his jacket. Joe picks up the vase and everyone else in the room, feels nauseous.
 'What shall I do with this?' Joe asks.
 Without warning, Ted fires at the vase and the bullet shatters the glass, as well as the rear window.
 'Problem solved,' Ted chuckles.
 'Right, thanks. OK, What shall we talk about?'

Joe takes his seat at the Wilson dinner table, while Dominic remains, tied to the chair and Bethany tends to her own wounds. Ted is now a desperate man and it's no thanks to Joe and his abilities. He is hoping, that everyone will cooperate and help in his escape. Joe looks over to Bethany and for a period of time stares at her so smug. Bethany begins to take note of this and finds it annoying.
 'What's the smug look on your face?' Bethany frowns.
 'Nervous?' Joe chuckles.
 'Obviously, haven't you noticed there is a mad man in my house, holding us at gunpoint and another, who just makes a joke out of the whole thing,' Bethany speaks loudly. 'I am referring to you by the way.'
 'At least you're honest,' Joe smirks. 'Because from now on, you have no choice.'
 'This guy is a f***** fruitcake,' Dominic curses. 'Ted, if you shoot this guy, I'll personally give a million dollars in stead of a hundred.'
 'What is it, you don't like about......?' Ted queries
 'Joe,' Joe informs.
 'A lot of things, even though I only just met this hotshot a few hours ago, I don't trust him,' Dominic replies, feeling the tightness of the ropes, that were once around Bethany moments ago.
 'That's only because you're worried, your true colours will be revealed, just like Ted's here were,' Joe adds. 'I mean you showed, your true feelings towards Bethany and her....so called family.'
 Bethany finds Joe claims disturbing and she gives Dominic a stern look and Dominic is now frightful, that some dangerous truths, will come out about their past. Not a good time during a hostage situation. Bethany takes up a seat, still putting pressure on her head wound.
 'What have you been saying to this guy, who is he?' Bethany asks.
 'I have no idea, Beth, he claimed to be an old college friend of Deloris, but he's not,' Dominic answers. 'He started asking weird questions and it was like, I couldn't control what I was saying, I mean, it doesn't make any sense.'
 Ted finds Dominic's experience, replica to his, when he first pulled Joe over for dangerous driving. Ted approaches Joe. Joe begins to feel tense momentarily, by Ted's intimidation, as the dirty cop senses there to Joe, than meets the eye. Dominic would mutually agree.
 'Who are you?' Ted whispers.
 'I told you earlier, I'm on vacation,' Joe lies.
 'Yeah, you told me that, and I don't buy it for a second,' Ted refuses to believe. 'What are you a hypnotist?'
 'I wish.'
 'Then, why are Dominic and myself having these similar experiences involving you?' Ted demands to know.
 'I can't tell you that,' Joe insists.
 Ted glances to Dominic for a second.
 'Is your Million Dollar offer still going?' Ted queries.
 Joe freezes, as he fears the worst.
 'Be my guest,' Dominic nods.
 Bethany shuts her eyes tightly, as prepares for a blood stained, dining room. Joe now has to act fast, as he has Ted's gun pressed firmly against his skull.
 'May I have one last request?' Joe calls out.
 'Sure, don't take too long, I must be on my way,' Ted accepts.
 Joe turns to face Bethany and pushes his in and takes out the Cosmos necklace and dangles it underneath the table, away from view of the three, that are in the room with him. He closes his eyes and prays. He lays his eyes firmly on Bethany and a not so guilty Dominic gives him a dirty stare.
 'Bethany, may I call you Bethany?' Joe begins.
 'Sure, whatever,' Bethany shrugs, throwing a blood stained table cover on the floor.
 'Tell, me Beth, what's your secret?' Joe questions.
 'I have plenty, what do you want to know?' Bethany involuntarily speaks.
 Dominic begins to see a similar happening about to occur and starts to panic. He can't do anything, but watch on, as he's tied up.
'What is your connection to the once secret organization the Cosmos?' Joe interrogates.
 'My sister Carla, reformed it, eight years ago, after project Gemini, was forced to shut down it's operation back in 1979. Carla's father ran the project, but left all the information she needed to reform upon his death and she invested her multi billion dollars, alongside the acquired and crooked businessmen and women ranging from the Pentagon, FBI, Wall Street, Lawyers, Oil Billionaires, etc.
 My sister had the sources necessary to cover up the organizations existence. Carla took care of me following my release from my mental incarceration, got me started in a new career, but only if I didn't interact with her for a prolonged period of time, possibly because she didn't trust me enough to know the ins and outs of the society. She was none too happy when I met Harry for the first time in twenty three years though, but she was more than happy to protect me, when she hypnotized Jeff into helping an al-Qaeda terrorist, which resulted into the forced help of Dominic to help in the murder of Harry's brother Jeff, down in the Caribbean, after he escaped execution. She even reunited me with my son, Ben.'

 'Not another word Bethany, just not another f***** word!!' Dominic rages.
 Ted is shocked by the revelation, that Joe had forced Bethany into. Dominic is beside himself and realizes Joe, is something else. Ted is so distracted now, is gun is not directed much at Joe at all. Joe spots this, but refrains from tackling Ted for the weapon.
 'What have I just said?' Bethany gasps, realizing her future is in jeopardy.
 'Not enough so far,' Joe laughs.
 Dominic is furious. 'Ted, shoot the little Bastard!! And I'll protect you man. We're all in the same boat here. We've been set up.'
 'Actually, I'm rather intrigued, I'd like to hear more,' Ted insists. 'Fire away Joe.'
 'No, I refuse to let you do this,' Bethany begs. 'I'll give you all the money you want, just don't allow this to go any further.'
 Ted hesitates for a second, but allows Joe to continue to force Bethany into more admissions. Bethany is about to turn around to exit the dining room, but Ted forces Bethany to stop, by shooting at the door frame. Bethany retreats and shakes profusely, as she is forced to retake her seat, alongside a tied up Dominic who is seething at Joe.
 'Bethany,' Joe continues, as he grasps his necklace underneath the table.
 'Mrs Wilson to you Dickhead,' Bethany shouts.
 'What other conspiracies have you been involved in?' Joe questions.
'Before I was placed under the Mental Health Act, eight years ago, Dominic was almost certainly going into financial ruin, so I agreed to help him, if he promised to play informant to my Carla if she requested him. I set fire to his family home, not realizing his son James was inside. He died. It drove me insane. If it wasn't for Carla months later, I'd still be there, maybe I should still be there. Recently, since I have lived in exile from my sister, I guess I have followed in her footsteps, more than I realized. I have become so jealous and worried, that people like yourselves would expose me and my true nature, so I dealt with them accordingly. Linda Perry, Steven Whittaker......Clara Barton....I mean Clara, she would have taken Rebecca away from me, she was her mother. Even, Rebecca's secret I've protected. If she knew I set that one up, she'd kill me, let alone hate me for doing away with Linda, but she was a killer Vampire at the end of the day anyway. Weird, only Glenda Robinsons death was an accident and it's been driving poor Charlotte round the bend yet again.'
 Dominic is reeling from the latest revelation. His wife and so called friend was involved in the 'Hexville High School' death which occurred in Episode 127 'Friday the 13th.'

Dominic cannot believe what he is hearing. Bethany under the forceful truth power of Joe Hayes, has involuntarily confessed to being behind, the murders of Linda Perry, Steven Whittaker and Clara Barton. What is worse, is that Bethany and Charlotte were involved in the killing of Glenda Robinson, a month ago. Bethany has also pointed out, that Rebecca was never a Wilson and that she has been posing as the supposedly deceased real daughter of Harry and the believed deceased Tina. It is starting to turn into the worse day of Dominic's life. What has even made matters worse, is that Bethany has spoke of hers and Dominic's connection to the former organization, the Cosmos and their involvement in Harry's brother, Jeff's, death, alongside Isabella Tarn, which occurred somewhere in the Caribbean by an unknown intruder, which was possibly a woman. Ted is astonished by Joes power to get people to tell the truth, whether or not they want to and is even more stunned by Bethany's admission of her background and the recent events in the last few months. Bethany is horrified and devastated by her actions, as she couldn't help confess. She stares aggressively at Joe, having the urge to spring an attack.
 'What did you do to me?' Bethany panics.
 'Is this true, Beth?' Dominic cries, fighting a losing battle with the ropes. 'Look at me?!'
 Bethany nervously looks to Dominic knowing how angry he is, to discover, Charlotte was part of the former head teacher of Hex-Ville High's death.
 'Is it true?!' Dominic yells.
 'Yes, Dominic, it's true.....it's true,' Bethany admits, feeling disgusted in herself.
 Joe laughs hilariously and this winds Bethany up something stupid and it annoys Ted too.
 'You probably don't think I'm a very nice guy, do you?' Joe laugh.
 'Sonny, if my looks could kill, it would be you,' Bethany arrogantly replies.
 'How about you Dominic? What do you think about that? This bitch and your wife covering up a murder?' Joe starts to intimidate once more.
 'It wasn't murder it was an accident,' Bethany insists. 'It was her that attacked me with a pair of scissors and then she tripped over Charlotte's feet. What happened to her, was her own doing.'
 'She was found in the back of a trash wagon, you covered up a killing and I realize now, why Charlotte has had moments of madness, this last month.....you are one Bitch!! You and that f***** whore of a son of yours, both of you have hurt my family, well not any more. When I get out of these ropes, God help me!! I'll take all three of you on!! Or should I say four?!'
 'Tell me, Bitch, have you and Dom King here, had a thing going?' Joe queries.
'Once Upon A Time, when he visited Charlotte in the nuthouse a few years ago, coincidence we shared the same ward together. I snuck him into a cupboard for a quickie and Charlotte saw us, it kinda slipped her mind, with all the drugs and all, but after all she has had far more important things on her mind, like grieving for the son, me and Dom accidently bumped off.'
 'You Bitch. You F****** BITCH!!' Dominic spits at Bethany.
 Ted desperate himself to leave Francis Bay, without a large amount of cash, after his secret has come to light, is too gobsmacked and captured by the latest revelations in the Wilson Household. He lowers his gun away from Joe, as it seems Dominic and Bethany are just as dirty as he is. Bethany hates Joe to a tee.
 'How'd you do it?' Bethany seethes.
 'Do what?' Joe shrugs.
 'You're a hypnotist aren't you?' Bethany encourages Joe to admit.
 'I have no idea, what you're talking about,' Joe denies.
 'Liar!!' Bethany screams.
 Bethany lunges at Joe and tries to tackle him, but Ted restrains her, as Joe is knocked to the floor, where he drops the Cosmos necklace, which now becomes visible to both Bethany and Ted. Bethany recognizes the necklace immediately. Ted though picks it up and studies it. He somewhat likes it.
 'Nice necklace, mind if I take this, could help me for the future?' Ted considers taking it.
 'Like hell you will,' Bethany snaps, snatching it from Ted's grasp. 'This necklace has the power to refrain someone from using their powers, when they where it.'
 'You know what that is?' Ted queries.
 'It's a Cosmos necklace, a central figure between power and being human,' Bethany explains.
 'You're full of secrets aren't you Beth?' Ted sarcastically acknowledges. 'I guess, we can help each other then.'
 'Up yours, all of you,' Dominic shouts, struggling with his ropes. 'I'd rather, have my life taken now, than do you any favours. I'm done with you Beth, Harry will see through you one day.'
 'More like, you wanna avoid explaining to your wife and daughter, the real reason your son died,' Joe points out.
 'I'm through with conspiracies, I'll take the risk. I just want this over with,' Dominic promises.
 'You got it,' Joe nods.
 Without, warning Joe kicks out at Ted and he loses grip of his gun and the two men start to fight in the dining room, whilst knocking Bethany to the floor. Ted punches Joe to the floor, but Joe kicks back out again and the two men grapple for the gun, as Bethany helplessly and tirelessly watches on. As the fight escalates further, Ted shoves Joe backwards, but leaves the gun in Joes hand and the gun accidently goes off and the latest bullet, hits Ted directly between the eyes and kills him outright. Bethany now, has a messy dining room. Joe retrieves his phone from Ted's pocket and quickly leaves the Wilson premises, leaving Bethany and Dominic sweating on their freedom. Joe makes his way to his car and notices, somebody has slashed his tyres and then checks at Ted's police car. He hops in and discovers the radio has been sabotaged. Joe jumps starts the vehicle and makes off into town, possibly to the station, to hand proof of Bethany and Dominic's admission, which is on a tape recorder, hidden inside his jacket.

Kings Café Apartment, Francis Bay. Deloris returns from the food store, with a few groceries and goes to check in on her mother, Charlotte. Deloris starts to worry, when she discovers that her mother is not only not in her room, but not in the apartment.

Joe starts driving erratically into town in desperation to expose Bethany and Dominic and bring justice once and for all. Joe spots the sign for the police station and whilst distracted by the sign, he almost mows down a wandering Charlotte, who reacts a split second before getting hit. Joe swerves the police car onto the pavement and blows out a tyre and crashes into a wall, hitting his head against the windshield. Joe staggers out of the police car, with blood pouring from his mouth. Charlotte rushes over to him, as he collapses to the floor, as do other passers by, who have witnessed the crash. Charlotte recognizes him from earlier on. Joe seems to have severe internal injuries. Passers by, call for an ambulance and Joe hands Charlotte a tape recorder.
 'This is for you, it has all the information on how your son died,' Joe informs. 'You're a good person lady. Both yourself and Deloris need to know the truth......stay safe.'
 Joe dies in the street and Charlotte hides the recorder in her pocket. Even though Joe has passed away, it doesn't mean his mission, has failed. Eric in his own predicament, may be made to sweat a bit longer. Charlotte may close the curtain on Bethany and her own husband yet.

 Back at the Wilson Household, Bethany attempts to calm a still tied up Dominic, when she spots a tape on the floor, which has already been used by the now deceased Joe. What does it contain?

 

 Unknown Lockup. Christopher and Eric are like sitting ducks in a barely lit, empty room. Tied to a chair, their fate is left in the balance. Christopher feels weak and breathes heavily. Eric remains calm and doesn't take his eyes off the iron door, diagonal to his right hand side. There is constant dripping of water from the ceiling. Wherever they are held captive, it has been made almost impossible for them to be found. Christopher lowers his head, as he begins to feel dizzy, due to the lack of water.
 'God, I'm so thirsty,' Christopher whispers.
 'You could always push your chair over to the corner there, and catch the droplets falling from the ceiling,' Eric suggests.
 'Is that another one of your sarcastic quotes or are you actually trying to be genuine for once?' Christopher queries.
 'I'm not all out evil,' Eric says.
 'That's weird, last time I checked, you were a psycho, pancaking a formant in a junkyard,' Christopher points out.
 'So tell me Chris, if Elaina and Andy hadn't escaped, what would you have done?' Eric questions.
 'That is another thing about being trapped in this room with you, you ask trick questions,' Chris moans.
 'Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was the only bad guy here,' Eric sarcastically replies.
 'I can't believe it, Bethany's son is ........' Christopher sighs. 'What have I gotten myself into?'
 'You jumped into the fire kid,' Eric said. 'You should have stayed out of it?'
 'Stay out of it?' Chris gasps. 'My uncle is married to a mad woman. If he isn't warned, Bethany will eventually turn on him.'
 'Not if she covers her tracks. I do believe she genuinely loves him and that's why she has to take the necessary actions, to conceal her past and dirty secrets,' Eric explains.
 'Let's hope your wannabe hero, Joe, wins you the congressional medal of honour with his truth control power then,' Chris prays.
 'Well, lets pray for the sound of police helicopters and FBI sirens sometime today,' Eric nods.
 Christopher looks back to the dampness in the ceiling behind him and drops of water, continues to fall down. Christopher's jerks his chair, back several paces in desperate need to rid the dehydration. He manages to reach the corner of the room and stays still for a few moments to catch the drops. Eric shows no sign of fighting, even though his eyes don't move away from the iron door. Eric may seem hard hearted at times, ruthless, psychotic and brazen, yet his soul desperately wants to show signs of peace, love and kindness and it soon reminds him, that the person he loved, wasn't the person she was. The real Chanel Mantel is possibly dead and Carla Morrison and took her appearance. A minute goes by and Christopher starts to feel a bit better.
 'Geez, I needed that,' Christopher partially smiles to himself. Christopher bumps his chair forward a few more feet and he too watches the iron door. 'Were you and the real Chanel an item?'
 'No, we just good friends,' Eric claims. 'Chanel was involved with the projects of the Cosmos.
 'So, you and Chanel decided to put your plan in motion?' Chris guesses.
 'Weird thing is, I wasn't Hank Willis anymore, I was Eric Lance, because Carla promised me she'd change my identity to stop the Mafia of Miami tracking me down. Carla changed this face for me and one of the Surgeons, was none other than Chanel's and she swore never to reveal the changing of Criminals identities. But, when the Cosmos lab was compromised under Wall Street, some employees scattered and she happened to still hold vital info on the Face/Off project. So, with the only evidence of any Cosmos in Chanel's hand, she knew who to look for. Myself or Francesco Del Reddi.'
 'Francesco Del Reddi?' He was the brother of a casino owner, who my mother knew years ago,' Christopher realizes. 'Francesco was found dead at the Tarn mansion, after pirates invaded the house in Mexico last year, just weeks prior to Dad's death. Did you track him down?'
'Barely, through a drug dealer, who lived near the Mexican Border, he arranged a meeting with Francesco, just outside Dallas, a place called Braddock,' Eric continues. It was around the time Jeff was due for execution and he told us that he managed to recover a Laptop prior to Jeff's execution in Texas and would resurrect him using his knowledge of what he studied with the Organization. The Laptop was Bethany's, it contained information, based on the Cosmos dirty secrets. Francesco couldn't trust me enough, but agreed to take care of accommodation for both myself and Chanel and would contact us, when the time was right. But, Chanel and I had to split up, in case the Cosmos knew of our backlash. Chanel was sent to Rio and I was sent to the Caribbean, alongside a fisherman, who also was a once unlucky employee of the Cosmos. In my opinion, I think that was the last time, I saw the real Chanel. After Carla's second hideout was discovered and she escaped again, that's when the murders at the Tarns came to light. The underground fisherman informed me, that Jeff indeed survive his execution and his attack by the Pirates and that he had the Laptop, that Francesco stole from the bank Bethany worked at in New York City. Word had it, he knew how or who killed his parents and that Jeff was on a secret Island just inside the Caribbean Sea. He also revealed that Jeff had sent one of his colleagues to fly to the States to hand over the disk to Abraham, but I risk, that to happen as any information on the disk could implicate myself or Chanel. I managed to reach Chanel or possibly Carla, but there was no reply. The fisherman refused me to interfere with your fathers wishes, so I followed the fisherman back to New York and snuck the disk from his bag. I decided to hold up in New York for a while and Bethany caught me off guard and if I wanted her silence, she'd pay me to do one certain favour for her and for Rebecca, based on Emma.
'Which was?' Chris pushes.
'Murder Emma's real father,' Eric confesses 'After that I had to portray myself as a cop, or my ongoing pursuit of Carla and Bethany would have ended there and then. And maybe you wouldn't be stuck in this room with me and Abraham wouldn't be in a coma and maybe I could have handled this better, than still acting as my other half, Hank. I was shocked at both your father and Francesco's death, not to forget Isabella Tarn, the woman he died with on that island. I knew that it wasn't Pirates that finished him, but Jeff seemed to know the ins and outs of the Cosmos and his parents death in the summer of 79. I just hope I'm forgiven for doing the right thing for a change.
 'How did you come to meeting Chane......or you know?' Chris asks.
 'She just came up to me in Central Park and we agreed to work together again, more fool me, not realize the deceit behind the face,' Eric answers. 'Poor Chanel not only found and killed, but also had her face taken. Carla the bitch, she made me love her, because I thought she was somebody else. Yet, I could say the same about your current boyfriend.'
 Christopher keeps his head down. Tears fall down his face and then he looks up to the ceiling.
 'I miss Emma,' Chris cries. 'I still love her and I think I always will. I may never get the chance to tell her, that if I don't make it out of here. After, what I have become, she may never want to take a chance on me again.'
 'Don't beat yourself up Chris, everyone deserves a second chance,' Eric insists. 'If Emma still feels the same, then maybe you can give her a second chance, that's if she even decides to break Rebecca's heart.'
 'Would you say Chanel was your true love, even though you never did f*** the real Chanel?' Chris states.
 'Maybe, but I can never forget the first girl I fell in love with,' Eric informs, facing Chris. 'Tina.'
 'Tina? My aunt Tina?' Chris second guesses.
 'Yeah, but she didn't love me, she loved your uncle and it hurt more than anything else. Thing is, I was like twenty five and she was only eighteen, but that didn't deter me from continuing my feeling, because she loved Harry. I guess that's why I got at your Daddy to go ahead with that heist or I'd have certain people attack his family.'
 'So you're saying, that the reason, you're a psycho, when trying to be the good guy, is because Tina never loved you and you never got over it. And now Tina, is dead, you got nothing to lose.'
 'Don't give up your day job kid, you'll be a legend at that New York Times,' Eric suggests.
 'That's if Elaina takes me back,' Chris reminds Eric.
 'Let's hope Abraham isn't too angry, when he recovers then.'

 

 Metropolitan Hospital Center, NYC, Manhattan. Harry, Rebecca and Emma return upstairs, as they see that the two police officers, who questioned Elaina, about the attempt on Abraham's life, exit the building. The three head for the elevator, and as they step in, Rebecca spots Gloria Lang, glance to her, as she leaves the hospital. Emma notices Rebecca's nervousness and gives her a nudge.
 'Are you OK?' Emma wonders.
 'I'm Fine, I just hate hospitals,' Rebecca claims.
 'Yeah, I'm sick of visiting them as well,' Harry agrees. 'I've not had the best of times, when I've stepped into one of these.'
 'He will be alright, won't he?' Rebecca worries.
 'Course he will,' Emma assures. 'Abraham is a strong person, he has a supportive family and great friends.'
 'Is that why you were hiding in the bathroom for half an hour, because you were scared?' Emma asks.
 'A lot of things have made me scared, Emma my love, but I'm fine,' Rebecca insists. 'As long as I have you, Dad........and Bethany, then I'm good.'
 'Are you still angry with me about this morning?' Harry queries.
 'No, Daddy, I try not to dwell on things, but it did come as a bit of a shock,' Rebecca admits. 'What ever possessed you to tell a reckless stranger, how you felt about my deceased mother?'
 'It's weird, I just couldn't help it,' Harry answers. 'It was almost as if, I was hypnotized.'
 'Have you called Bethany, on the whereabouts on your M.I.A. nephew?' Rebecca sighs.
 'Good point, I'll call her on a pay phone, I think my cell phone has a flat,' Harry thinks.
 The elevator stops on the floor, where Abraham is in his coma. They looks over to where Elaina is sitting. Elaina is staring down at the ground, almost as if she is waiting for the ground to swallow her up. The three take a slow pace over to the distraught wife of the policeman, who's life hangs in the balance. Emma sits to Elaina's left, as Rebecca takes the right seat and Harry takes a seat opposite the ladies. Emma takes Elaina's shivering hand.
 'How did it go?' Emma whispers.
 Elaina turns to Emma. Emma wonders if Elaina had in fact admitted to being kidnapped by Chris. Elaina they glances one eye to Harry, who has been kept in the dark. The point of the reason that Abraham is in a coma, is that Christopher has a vendetta with Eric, who thinks has had Elaina working for him, to conceal a disk, that has information concerning the secrets of the Cosmos
 and the people connected to it, Carla Morrison, Bethany's sister AND Bethany herself, who has her own history of issues. Plus it contains, information which has been in question since the beginning of the series. The truth on Harry's parents death.
 It seems Jeff died, attempting sending the truth, to still now his oblivious younger brother and now the disk has now ultimately ended up in the hands, Jeff would have dreaded.....his wicked second sister in law.
 'I aint gonna lie to you anymore, Andy and I was kidnapped by somebody, who disliked my newspaper,' Elaina lies.
 Emma knows Elaina is lying, as she told Emma that Chris had kidnapped her.
 'Oh my God, Elaina, that's awful,' Harry gasps.
 'How did you get away?' Rebecca interrupts. 'Did Abraham find you?'
 'Oh, we escaped on our own, but Abraham found us and he placed him under arrest and then that's when it happened. Somebody seized his car.......and tha.......oh my God..,' Elaina tries to explain, as she breaks down in tears.

  Driving to the station, are policemen, Hugo and Beagle, who suspect that Elaina was lying.
 'So, what do you think?' Hugo asks.
 'Lieutenant Carlisle's wife, didn't convince me, she's holding something back,' Beagle suspects.
 'The Motel Manager in Saratoga Springs, seemed to think that Carlisle knew the kidnapper and he had somebody else at his aid.'
 'Could it have been Lance?'
 'More than likely. Let's not provoke, the grieving wife too much, lets make enquires on our deputy at the station and why Mrs Carlisle could be lying.

 Back at the hospital, Harry heads over to a pay phone to call home to Francis Bay, to find out if Bethany has located missing Christopher. If Elaina only had the courage to tell Harry, where he is and what occurred in Saratoga Springs, but according to Eric's worst fears, it could potentially put Harry in danger. In danger of what? His life at stake by his wife or something else? It sounds like Eric knows more than he's telling. Harry dials home to Long Island, but it that is not only no answer, there is no ring tone. This makes Harry a little suspicious.

Francis Bay, Long Island. A shaken Bethany and Dominic are being interviewed by police and have managed to fool law enforcement by claiming Joe Hayes infiltrated the house, by pretending his car wouldn't start and then he knocked her out, by which time Ted Sumner and Dominic had shown up and heard the commotion and was overpowered by Joe and took them hostage, not before murdering Ted in the process. Police interview Benjamin, who claims to have slashed Joes tyres to stop him from escaping and tried to radio for help in Teds radio, but it was sabotaged. Dominic is reluctant to help Bethany, after discovering Bethany and Charlotte had been involved in the death of Glenda Robinson and that Bethany had acted out cold towards the death of James. Dominic is let go, after lying through his teeth to not only save Bethany, but to save himself. Bethany walks him to his car, as police forensics continue in the house, as well as at the crash scene in town, where Joe Hayes crashed and died. Dominic freezes when Bethany hugs him and breaks down in tears. Dominic leans his face towards Bethany ear and aggressively whispers.
 'You knows Hayes was right, I'm only doing it for me. But, I'll to you something and take it as a warning. Both your son and yourself have done enough to bring my family into your sick games. You killed my son, you blackmailed me to murder your brother in law, your son humiliated my daughter and now you've got my wife involved in a murder, well I aint gonna give you the satisfaction of destroying my family anymore, you know why? Because if you so much as cross paths within a three foot radius of either myself, Charlotte and Deloris and you speak just one word to one of us, so help me God. You tell that to your precious blue eyed boy too. Now go f*** yourself, Bitch.'
 Dominic hops into his car and heads home. Bethany rushes to the bathroom and wonders what could be on the tape, put that aside for a moment, Bethany has still managed to conceal her true nature.


Kings Café, Francis Bay, Charlotte places the tape recorded by the deceased Joe Hayes into the Hi Fi, two hours after Hayes death and mere minutes after police interviewing. How will she react, when she gets the full insight of her husbands past? It won't be pretty.

Dominic arrives home, as the tow truck drivers remove the police car, that Joe Hayes was killed in, in an attempt to expose the past secrets of Dominic and Bethany. Dominic exits his car and stares at the wreckage as he heads inside the apartment via the café entrance. Dominic knew Joe was onto him, and it may come as a relief to him, that his family remain intact. It also appears, that he won't pursue questioning Charlotte on the death of Glenda Robinson, considering he has managed to keep silent on how James King really died, eight years previous. Dominic is desperate to keep his family together and will his utmost best to avoid Bethany and if he does interact with Harry, he will pray it will be at a minimum. Dominic locks the café door behind him and heads up into the apartment. As he returns home, Deloris hurries to hug her father, as she is so glad he is now safe.
 'I'm so glad you're alright,' Deloris cries. 'I can't believe I let that nut in here.'
 'That had nothing to do with what happened,' a guilty Dominic replies.
 'Oh my God, he murdered officer Sumner too,' Deloris gasps.
 'Yeah, cold hearted Bastard,' Dominic lies. 'How's your mother, I heard he nearly ran her over, before he crashed.'
 'She's taken it well actually, Deloris informs. 'She's refused to be sedated by the doctor, but she's still gone for a lie down.'
 'I'll go check in on her, why don't you go make us a coffee?' Dominic suggests.
 'Shit, I knew I forgot something from the store,' Deloris groans. 'Stupid really, we run a café after all.'
 'Just go borrow, some from downstairs, we'll worry about groceries tomorrow,' Dominic insists.
 'Sure thing, Daddy,' Deloris nods, kissing her father on the cheek.
 Deloris heads to the door, that leads down into the café, as Dominic makes a slow pace to the bedroom. Deloris turns back.
 'Daddy?' Deloris calls.
 'Yes, cupcake?' Dominic acknowledges.
 'Do know what that weirdo wanted?' Deloris asks.
 Dominic hesitates for a moment, knowing that the truth hurts inside and that if Deloris or Charlotte ever discovered his true intensions, his life would be over.
 'I wish I knew,' Dominic whispers.
 Deloris heads downstairs to fetch some coffee, as Dominic heads into the bedroom. There he sees Charlotte staring out of the bedroom window, north to where the Wilson house is. Charlottes acknowledges her husbands presence, but only by the nervous tension, when she hears the door open. Charlotte eyes fill with tears and she looks to the ground, where she dropped the tape recorder, handed to her secretly, by the dying Joe Hayes. As Dominic approaches her, she back heels the tape recorder under the bed. Dominic places his hand on his wife's shoulder and she jumps sideways. Dominic suspects it's just the shock.
 'Honey, it's me,' Dominic tries to assure her. 'I'm so glad you're OK.'
 Charlotte does not reply, as she stares down at the tow truck men, removing Ted Sumner's wrecked patrol car from the crash scene.
 'You know he's dead don't you?' Charlotte's blurts.
 'Yeah I do,' Dominic responds. 'But, I'm not sorry the asshole is dead, he murdered Ted Sumner, and threatened mine and Bethany's life.'
 'What was his intensions?' Charlotte glumly queries, staring profusely out of the window, making no attempts to look her husband in the eye.
 'What every criminal wants I guess, money,' Dominic claims.
 'What were you doing up there, considering you never wanted to interact much with the Wilsons, after that orgy stunt, involving Benjamin Bates?' Charlotte reminds him.
 'Just to talk to check to see if Harry was home...you know to talk,' Dominic fibs. 'He's in the city for some reason, with Rebecca and Emma.'
 'He was never a college friend of our daughter was he?' Charlotte suspects.
 'Then why did, Deloris lie about him being a college friend?'
 'Maybe, it's because he has this knack of forcing people to say things, even if they don't want to.'
 Dominic frowns by Charlottes gestures.
 What are you getting, honey?'
 'I don't know, I thought you might have had all the answers,' Charlotte figures.
 'I wish,' Dominic sighs.
 'What do you wish for?'
 'Charlotte what's wrong?' Dominic worries.
 'Just answer the question.'
 
'Lot's of things. I wish I could turn the clock back, so we could get a second chance with our son,' Dominic explains. 'I wish we didn't have all these bad occurrences come at us.'
 'So you regret a lot then?' Charlotte hints.
 'I think a lot of people have regrets,' Dominic answers.
 'No, I mean, you regret our son dying,' Charlotte raises her voice, still not making eye contact.
 'He's my son, there's not a day that goes by that I don't regret what happened that night,' Dominic panics. 'I loved James and I never blamed you for what happened. A part of me wished I was home that night.'
 'Really? Because when I hit my head last night and from what I know today, it's all clear now and I'm not crazy. I know who that person was now, from my vision. The one who killed our son.'
 'Charlotte, you're not thinking str.......
 'It was Bethany and you paid her to burn the house down for the insurance. You and that Bitch, murdered our son and Joe Hayes, put the remaining pieces of my suspicions together, as he laid dying in the street. Unfortunately for him, he died before he could expose you and Mrs superior,' Charlotte shocks Dominic.
 Dominic's body tenses up, it's his worst nightmare come true. It's Charlotte's worst discovery, her worst nightmare. Dominic now fears he will not only lose his family, but he will be left to rot in a federal prison for the rest of his life.
 'Charlotte, how could you allow a psycho like Hayes put Bullshit like that into your head?' Dominic wines. 'That guy was screwy.'
 'You know I thought I was nuts, but I'm only nuts, because Bethany the true nut of it all, has managed to put a curse on my life,' Charlotte realizes. 'And you were by her side, covering for her. I never knew that reason she was in that mental hospital, until now and she still hasn't changed and you still run to her.'
 Dominic slumps onto the bed, with guilty tears running down his face, taking in what horror his wife has discovered.
 'You betrayed me by not just seducing her and taking our son, but you still had your part in making one more attempt to save yourselves,' Charlotte continues. 'You set up Jeff Wilsons murder.....You are something else Dominic. You are not the man I married, you're not the man I fell in love with. You're the man that destroyed everything I loved. If there is one regret I had in my life, is that I could ever love someone like you.' Charlotte turns to face Dominic. 'I'm finishing this today, you and I....done, finished. You're evil.'
 Dominic drops to his knees in tatters and grips Charlottes hands, who bares no sympathy with him.
 'I beg of you, please don't give up on us,' Dominic pleads. 'I had idea it would go as far as it did. I was desperate. I've been punished enough.'
 'True, but not by me,' Charlotte adds. 'I won't say anything to Deloris, but you're gone by midnight.'
 'You mean, you're not sending me to jail?' Dominic wonders.
 'I think our daughter has had enough to contend with, she doesn't need to know her father is a murderer.'
 'You may see the death of our son, as a definition of murder, but what's the definition on the death of Glenda Robinson?' Dominic counters.
 Charlotte is shocked to learn that Dominic knows of her and Bethany's involvement in Robinsons death in Hex-Ville.
 'Bethany sort of mentioned it, during the hostage situation, I guess we're not too different after all,' Dominic suggests.

 

Moments after police leave the Wilson Household, Bethany hurries down to the cellar to make sure forensics haven't snuffed out the disk, that had been hidden inside the old furnace. Luckily for Beth, it remains untouched and undiscovered. Bethany returns upstairs to ground level and takes out the cassette tape hidden inside her blouse. It was once in the possession of the now deceased Joe Hayes and it fell from his jacket, whilst in a physical fight with Ted Sumner, who also is now dead. Bethany glances to the crime scene inside the dining, before looking at the clock. It reads 17:30 pm. Bethany then puts the phone line back in, when Benjamin makes an abrupt appearance.
 'Are you OK?' Benjamin asks concerned.
 'I've never been so on edge in all my life,' Bethany replies.
 'How's your head?' Benjamin queries.
 'Sore, but I'll be fine,' Bethany assures him.
 'You should go to a hospital,' Benjamin suggests.
 'No, really I'm OK,' Bethany insists.
 'How are you going to explain all this to Harry, when he comes back from the city?' Benjamin wonders.
 'I'm working on it,' Bethany claims.
 'Well, I'm, praying Dominic keeps his mouth shut,' Benjamin worries. 'Last thing we want, is everything going bust now, after everything, we've all sacrificed.'
 'I know that,' Bethany answers.
 'Who was this hot shot, Hayes anyway and what made Sumner go nuts?'
 'I suspect Mr Hayes, was a Meta Human,' Bethany figures. 'He probably discovered who I was, with my sisterly connections with Carla and probably wanted to force me and Dominic to admit our criminal past.'
 'That doesn't make sense, I thought Aunt Carla, was exempt from having her identity revealed to certain employees of the Cosmos when it was in operation,' Benjamin remembers. 'Somebody had sent him here, to snuff us out.'
 'You don't think Christopher had anything to do with that?' Bethany gasps.
 'No, but I suspect it maybe a certain cop, who he hates the most and hates you the most,' Benjamin hints.
 'Eric Lance aka Hank Willis,' Bethany guesses. 'Christopher has gone after him.'
 'What if Christopher has gotten himself killed, but if not, what if Lance or whatever his name is, has told Chris the truth about us? We're f****d.'
 'We've got so much to deal with, it's driving me up the wall,' Bethany shivers. 'Now, that Dominic knows that Charlotte and I were behind Glenda Robinson's death, he knows he can't expose me, because he knows, Deloris will be left alone, while both her parents are in jail.'
 'Well, I hope you're right about that,' Benjamin whispers. 'What about Lance? I'm gonna kill him.'
 'You have had enough blood on your hands in the last few weeks,' Bethany explains. 'Too dangerous. Leave it with me.'
 'My blood, your blood,' Benjamin reminds her. 'Same thing.'
 'Do I need reminding?' Bethany sarcastically replies, looking at the cassette case.
 'Mother, if Christopher is still alive and Eric convinces him, we're a threat to Harry, which I know you feel you're not, because you love him, what do we do?' Benjamin panics.
 'I don't know.'
 'I don't know', is not a good enough answer Mom,' Benjamin argues. 'Jesus Christ, I been masquerading as your next door neighbour for six months, when really I'm your son, saving your skin and trying to keep myself under the radar.'
 'Why do you think, I've tried to avoid contact with your aunt Carla?'
 'True, but she will always want something in return.'
 'Benjamin, baby, wherever she is, I hope to God, she realizes that I've sacrificed everything to keep her secret from the world, maybe you should consider sacrificing your love for Chris, if he is safe and well.'
 Do you seriously think, I'm going to give up on the one guy I love, to save us?' Benjamin frowns.
 'It won't be easy I know,' Bethany senses.
 'It won't happen, because Harry will be pursuing Christopher for sometime and you know what that sleazy wife of his Emma, will be like, despite her being with her new bed pal, Rebecca, she won't give up on the truth. It's too risky and you'd have to look at Harry every day, knowing the truth.'
 'Then I guess, it's better we don't go looking for Christopher,' Bethany shrugs.
 'Oh I see, Catch Twenty two,' Benjamin moans.
 'Why don't you go lie down, Harry might not be long in getting home, we'll discuss this at a more convenient time.'
 'Whenever that is, probably in a Court Of Law, maybe.'
 Benjamin leaves the house and returns to his cabin house, leaving Bethany in a awkward position. Bethany has finally revealed as Benjamin's mother. What does Benjamin mean, by sacrificing everything and Bethany not getting anymore blood on Benjamin's hands? Bethany looks again at the cassette tape and ascends the staircase, to the bedroom. Bethany walks to the bedroom window and spots Benjamin sitting on the short wooden pier, on the estuary. Benjamin loves Christopher, but Bethany fears that push may come to shove and may have to live with getting rid of Harry's adopted nephew, that's if Chris, survives Chanel Mantel's aka Carla Morrisons hostage situation, which Bethany and Benjamin are already unaware of. Bethany again looks at the cassette tape and places it into the hi fi system. What she hears, will probably change the course of the dysfunctional Wilson family fold. Bethany presses play.

"What are your plans in Francis Bay, if you don't mind me asking? It must be important, if you're nearly running me off the road." - Harry.

"Let's just say, I'm looking for that extra bit of adventure in my life. Where are you and your family headed on this easy like Sunday morning?" - Joe.

" Oh, we're headed to Manhattan to see a friend at the hospital, he's in a coma, following a hit and run. His wife is really distraught and she desperately needs us." - Harry.

"So are you married?" - Joe. "Yes, I am my wife has stayed behind, she's trying to locate a family member, so she can bring him to the hospital." - Harry.

"You must love your wife, very much?" - Joe.

"I guess so, but it's not the same kind of love that I had for my first wife, Tina. - Harry.

"Tell me about Tina." - Joe.

 "She was the love of my life, we met when were seven and she was my high school sweetheart. She was the best wife and mother, a husband could have. We adopted a son too, Jack, but he's been missing for four years. - Harry.

"I take it, she died in the 9/11 attacks in 2001?" - Joe.

"Yes, she did, it broke my heart." - Harry.

"Do you miss her?" - Joe. "There is not a day, that goes by that I don't think of her. This sounds selfish on Bethany's part, but of I had a choice between her and Tina, if Tina were still alive, I'd pick Tina, 100%. It's hard to love somebody the same way, you loved your true love. I wish I could close my eyes and turn back time and make everything better forever." - Harry.

 Bethany's worst fears have been confirmed. Harry could never love her like his true love, Tina. Tears profusely run down Bethany's face and her right nose, starts to bleed, as her blood pressure rises. Bethany then looks to the sideboard, where Harry and her wedding day picture sits.
 'You're absolutely right, Benjamin........"Catch 22."

 

 

Kings Café, Francis Bay, Long Island. There are uncomfortable silences at the dinner table, in the family apartment, what could be left of the family. Charlottes discovery has torn her apart and Dominic is using her secret, to keep the family as a unit. Deloris however, is still oblivious that Dominic had let Bethany burn their home down, years earlier killing her brother James and she is also unaware that Charlotte was behind the death of Glenda Robinson, even though it was accidental. What Dominic still doesn't know, that Bethany didn't manage to confess to under the forceful power of Joe Hayes, is that she was aware that James was still in the house, although she did not show much compassion for his loss, during the questioning of Hayes. The clock reads 18:01 P.M, and Charlotte finds it hard to make a conversation, whilst Dominic holds his nerve. Deloris notices how suspicious both her parents are acting, but suspects that it's a usual domestic. Deloris finishes her plate and takes it to the kitchen. Dominic touches Charlottes hand, and this upsets her and outraged. Dominic manipulation has seemed to have got the better of Charlotte, who realizes that if both secrets got out, Deloris would be left alone and without both her parents.
 'We'll get through this, I promise, I will spend the rest of my life, being the husband you always wanted,' Dominic whispers.
 Charlotte does not reply and her body tenses up with anger and pain. Charlotte excuses herself from the table and heads to the bathroom, where she checks her injury from the previous evening.
 'Don't worry Dominic honey,' Charlotte says to herself. 'You don't have to do anything, because I'm going to end it with sweet revenge by tonight.'

Metro Hospital Medical Center, Manhattan, NYC. Harry returns to Abrahams room, where he remains on life support, with Elaina by his side. Rebecca and Emma are still present. Rebecca notices Harry acting a little wound up and she hurries to her fathers side.
 'Daddy, what is it?' Rebecca asks.
 'I just spoke with Bethany, there's been an incident back home,' Harry informs.
 'Oh my God, what happened?' Emma gasps. 'Is it Christopher?'
 'No, it's not that,' Harry replies.
 'Bethany?' Rebecca questions.
 'Bethany's fine, but by her tone on the phone, she desperately wants us back home right away,' Harry claims.
 'So she didn't tell you what happened?' Rebecca raises her eyebrows.
 'With all the swearing and the cursing, all I got was......Ted Sumner's dead,' Harry states.
 'Ted Sumner, your colleague at the Francis Bay Police Department?' Rebecca second guesses.
 'Yeah,' Harry nods.
 'That's awful,' Emma acknowledges, putting her coat on.
 'Bethany was involved somehow, so we'd better get going,' Harry insists. Harry turns to Elaina, who grasps onto Abraham's hand. Harry walks over and kisses her on the forehead and rubs her shoulder. 'I am so sorry Elaina, but we have to rush, something terrible has happened back home and it needs taken care of, but we'll back for sure, as soon as it's taken care of.'
 'Thank you, Harry you have been a great comfort for mine and Andy's day in need, you, Emma and Rebecca have been wonderful,' Elaina appreciates.
 'We'll keep you posted on any leads on Christopher,' Emma calls.
 'Stay positive Elaina, Abraham will make it through,' Rebecca said.
 Elaina embraces Harry, then Rebecca and lastly Emma. Elaina whispers in Emma's ear.
 'Don't say anything to Harry about what really happened in Saratoga Springs or about the kidnapping, whatever Lance warned me about, it's way too dangerous for Harry to know, I mean just at my husband.'
 Emma glances to Abraham momentarily and leaves the room, with Rebecca and Harry.
 'I'll call you later,' Harry assures.
 'Bye,' Elaina bravely smiles.
 Elaina turns her attentions back to her critically injured husband, who remains in a coma. Two months is how long Abraham has left of hope of survival. Elaina takes Abraham's hand and looks to the heart rate monitor, it's stable. Elaina prays for a miracle. Abraham didn't asks for any of this. He's a family man, caught up in other peoples vengeful acts, conspiracies and cover ups. If and when Abraham regains consciousness, how will Elaina explain her interactions with Eric Lance? That's if Abraham has a memory left.
 'There we are honey, just you and me again. We need some time alone now. Harry and his family have been so amazing. It's nice to have friends like we have. They drove over a hundred miles to see you. Abraham darling I am so sorry. I tried to avoid the situation, I really did, but the pressure was too much. Eric suspects Harry is centre to what he's got involved I don't what but, it's his problem now, wherever he is. All I'm concerned about, is wishing you to wake up soon and for us to be a family again,' Elaina explains. 'I'll never forget the day, you took me to Prom, Oh my God, I had butterflies in my stomach and they lasted for weeks, months and years. I even still have those butterflies. You were the most handsome man at the Prom that night. I remember we looked up at the stars and you said, we will be together 'til the end of time and that we'd climb the highest mountain and see the entire world below our feet. You'd fly me across the ocean blue and make my dreams come true. Then you kissed me, by then my dreams had already come true. I remember the tears in your eyes, when I told you I was pregnant with Andy. They were more profuse, when I handed him to you for the first time. He misses his Daddy. I don't want those Butterflies, replaced by pain. I want you back my love. I know you can make it, because it will be our love that will make us stronger. Stronger than yesterday, that's a saying I think. I love you Abs, and don't you ever for get that. I was born to find you.'
 Elaina rests her head on Abraham's hand and closes her eyes in a prayer.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany is still reeling from discovering her husband, Harry, could never love her like his supposedly first deceased wife, Tina, which is also Bethany's half sister, that most are unaware of. Bethany looks at the tape that revealed Harry's true feelings and she hides it, inside her handbag. Bethany being calm exits the bedroom and makes her way downstairs to the kitchen. Bethany alone for the time being, looks to the dining room, where forensics had collected evidence. None, will ever suggest, that Bethany or Dominic were lying. The tape confession keeps replaying over and over in Bethany's mind. It's been a mere sixteen months and one day, since the tragedy of Nine Eleven. How could Bethany expect Harry to get over losing Tina in the blink of an eye? Bethany's own selfishness is too great to understand the meaning of true love. Jill Flanders had the same problem, when she stalked and harassed Harry, years earlier, only difference is, Harry saw Bethany in a different light, because he knew her from high school and as a comfort, during his loss. Jill he didn't know from Adam, who had an obsession, a fatal attraction. But, now a year and a half down the line, Bethany has become almost worse than Jill ever could be. Will Bethany hold her nerve and cling onto desperate love, that can never been true or will she risk her freedom and blow her true nature wide open? Bethany at one point wanted Tina's attention or even try to tell her that she was in fact her and Greg's half sister, that Billy refused to be let known to everyone. Few knew, some didn't, but years on, like Jill, Bethany has become jealous of Tina, even though she is apparently not alive anymore. Bethany catches her reflection in the window from the sunlight and with warning she has a nervous breakdown. Bethany smashes up plates and kicks over chairs and punches the refrigerator, where she slumps to the floor in tatters. Benjamin rushes in. He kneels beside his distraught mother and comforts her.

 

Secret Lockup. There is no sign of the elusive, Chanel Mantel and her guards, as Christopher starts to become stressed, while Eric tries to remain calm still. For nearly twenty hours, both men have been left alone in a wet and damp empty room, expecting a rescue team to bust through the door any moment. Eric is feels he is certain to end up in jail, at least his cell won't be as ugly as the one, he's been left in at this moment in time. Eric is unaware, that the mission he sent Joe Hayes on has failed and that his hopeful man has died in Francis Bay. But, Charlotte holds some evidence based on Dominic and Bethany's confessions and they're under her bed. Unfortunately , since Dominic's emotional blackmail has somewhat left Charlotte in a dilemma, there is nothing much both Chris and Eric can do. Christopher's vision is almost impaired and feels nauseous. Eric didn't care much for Chris, when he first met him, now it looks like Eric can't see his life, on the run anymore.
 'Hang on in their kiddo, don't give up on me yet,' Eric pleads.
 'I was hoping your source, would have hit the nail on Bethany's coffin by now,' Chris mumbles.
 'It may take some time,' Eric tries to assure Chris.
 'Time? Time?!' Chris snaps. 'We've been stuck in here for nearly a day, no sign of hope and you mean to tell me that I should be patient? Well, I'm sorry if I'm fearing for my life.'
 'Listen, this hasn't been a blast for me either, but we can't give up now, we've come too far in our lives,' Eric insists. 'Otherwise, what was the point in fighting in the first place.'
 'If my mother could see me now,' Chris sighs.
 'Tell me about your mother,' Eric says.
 'Truth is I didn't get to know my mother, that well up until over six years ago,' Chris begins.
 'You were adopted?' Eric queries.
 'Not exactly, well, I thought I was. Illegally I should say by a crook from the FBI, Alfred Benedict. My so called adopted mother, Cheriece was unaware that I wasn't officially adopted, everything was a forgery. Benedict murdered my birth father, he was Italian, as he was linked to crime boss, Carlos Del Reddi, and my mother. Cheriece couldn't have kids, so he made a deal with my mom and covered his tracks. But, by mid 96, Mom seeked the help from Daddy, Jeff and Carlo's to bring Alfred down and take me back. Carlo's had evidence on Alfred, by vice versa, so the mission was stuck in a traffic jam. Most of my early life, I saw my Mom as a monster, but it was him all the time. I feel sorry for Cheriece, because I know she loved me and I understand why Lea resented her all those years, because of him and she was desperate not to lose me, she killed Carlos. But, in truth, I know my real mother never left me, because she was a good person. In some ways it was a relief Alfred died, poor Cheriece got drawn into the dark power. I only had a good part of two years of my mother in my life, then that bastard Paul Harland took it away,' Chris explains all.
 'Jesus, your life has been a rollercoaster like me,' Eric replies. 'Yet, you're still as strong as it comes. Some people must envy your courage.'
 'I'm starting to lose that as well, never mind hope,' Chris answers.
 'Who's Lea?'
 Chris hesitates for a moment, as he doesn't want to embarrass himself, by admitting he had an affair with his step mother, who was in fact Cheriece's sister and who later turned into a vampire.
 'She's somebody that, may also have been sat where you are, if she had got caught up in the
Cosmos web of deceit,' Chris bluntly states.
 'Everything comes back to that doesn't,' Eric roles his eyes.
 'How about you, what's your history?' Chris questions.
 'A life of crime of course,' Eric chuckles. 'I'm not the sort to blame an unhappy upbringing, like some people, I have to admit, it's all my fault. Maybe if I wasn't such a f***** asshole, then I would hope Tina would have carried on loving me, that's if she did of course. A friend of my fathers pulled some strings and got me out of jail in '82', got me this job in Texas, didn't change at all. I carried on where I left off, right up until I met that bitch. Like she's doing now, using different aliases to stop people taking her son, while she extorted money into the Cosmos.
 Then I had certain criminals after me, and so we faked our deaths, but Carla had to protect Jack by making him an orphan for a period of time, until she knew the time was right. And the rest you know.'
 'I can't believe Carla set up Jack being adopted by Uncle Harry and Aunt Tina, she must have pay rolled the orphanage to set that up,' Chris figures. 'What is even more strange is that how did she know Harry and Tina wanted to adopt and why she chose them.'
 Eric face suddenly drops and he feels a sudden chill surge down his spine. It appears, he understands why Carla chose that to happen.
 'She's been spying on him for years,' Eric whispers to himself. 'So that's why she did it.'
 'Did what?' Chris asks.
 'Nothing, absolutely nothing,' Eric denies.
 'Don't give me your bullshit now Eric, after all what have we to lose now?' Chris reminds him.
 Suddenly, the iron door, is heard banging loudly and key locks are heard turning. Then the door flies open and insteps Chanel Mantel and her guards, with pistols in hand. Chris takes a big gulp, while Eric remains his usual brazen self. Chanel approaches Eric slowly and leans forward and flickers her eye lashes at him, in an attempt to intimidate him, but he seems unnerved by her annoying presence.
 'I bet if I took all my clothes off now, you'd jump on me,' Chanel teases.
 'Yeah, you're right, I'd f***** kill you,' Eric threats.
 Chanel backhands him in the face, then spits in it.
 'Your tough guy days will soon be over Hank, any love for you that I had is one hundred per cent dead in dirt,' Chanel tells him.
 'Any love that I had for you, was in your vivid imagination,' Eric sarcastically says.
 'You know how to make a woman feel dirty don't you Eric, oh doh, Hank, but I have to remind you, bad boy, you too were a fool to believe that Tina Mcquire could have ever loved you,' Chanel counters.
 'Oh, Tu f***** Shay,' Eric moans.
 'Don't worry Willis, the seventies were a blast, but today I'll be blasting you with my pistol, instead of you blasting me with yours, if you see what I mean?' Chanel crudely remarks.
 'I think being sick is long overdue,' Chris interrupts.
 Chanel moves towards Chris and points her handgun firmly against his forehead. Chris pulls back, as the rope get even more tighter around her wrists. Now, the cold chamber becomes even more threatening to him. Any moment, his life could be extinguished by an explosive cartridge. Chanel strokes Chris's face.
 'Jack told me, you were his favourite cousin,' Chanel claims. 'Funny, he never told me, you were a motor mouth. What is it, not enough Pulitzer Prize winners lately? Ever considered becoming a monk?'
 'Ever considered become a mother yourself?' Chris taunts.
 Chanel backhands Chris with the gun and he falls to the floor in agony. On the floor, he spots a small nail, just in the minimal lit room. Chanel is too distracted by throwing her weight around on the injured Christopher.
 'Just to warn you Christopher, I don't give third chances,' Chanel warns. 'The next time, will be fatal. In case you forgotten, I am Jacks real mother. I love my baby boy and he loves me. Tina Mcquire Wilson is gone. She was his mother for a while just like you were his family for a while, but now he's where he belongs.'
 'No, the real reason, you took him back, is because of his psychic abilities, you wouldn't have wanted him back, if you couldn't use him for your advantage in power and corruption in your criminal activities,' Chris argues.
 'Jack maybe be special because of his telepathic powers, but he is also special, because he's mine,' Chanel rages.
 'And Harry's,' Eric smirks.
 'What are you talking about?' Chanel frowns.
 'Is that why you set up the adoption? Because Harry was in fact going to adopt his own son? I mean, how else would you find it so easy to retrieve him after knowing his powers were true? You spied on him for years and you wanted to hurt him. Why? Tell me, what made Harry fall into your arms? F*** me, Harry Wilson, has had both of Bethany's sisters in the sack. I'm gonna die laughing,' Eric torments.

 

 

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Harry, Rebecca and Emma return home from New York and Harry quickly comforts Bethany, who now knows how he feels about her. Bethany acts all relieved to see him home, following the charade which occurred earlier in the day, involving Joe Hayes, Ted Somner and Dominic. Bethany lies, that Joe murdered Ted and that he died attempting to escape after supposedly holding them hostage, when really it was Ted, that had them hostage.
 'I guess, tracking down Christopher has hit a snag then?' Emma figures.
 'Didn't have a chance to,' Bethany acknowledges. 'I tried to calm Benjamin down for a while, before all the madness.
 'Who was this guy?' Harry frowns, checking the injury that Bethany received to her forehead.
 'Just some hotshot, who was probably getting too lonely, too bored I guess,' Bethany claims.
 'And that made him blast away one of my colleagues away?' Harry gasps. 'F*** me, this loony must have been more than a bored out of town loner.'
 'Well, it's over now,' Bethany said.
 'Until something else, pops up,' Rebecca sarcastically interrupts.
 'Look, I know we haven't had the best of starts to home life in Francis Bay....' Bethany tries to explain.
 'Yeah, and the rest,' Rebecca sarcastically interrupts.
 'That scare with Linda Perry and you losing your moth......aunt Clara, had been a shock to us all, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel,' Bethany assures.
 'You did forget to mention that we concealed a runaway prisoner in our basement for a few days, whatever happened to him,' Rebecca reminds her stepmother.
 Emma frowns at Rebecca's reference of them harbouring Steven Whittaker.
 'You were harbouring a criminal?' Emma questions.
 'My Daddy's former work colleague from years ago, he tried to kill uncle Jeff and murdered his brother nearly seven years ago,' Rebecca states. 'You said, he slept with grandma Audrey didn't you Daddy?'
 'That's not an issue anymore, lets concentrate on now and the future, hey, cupcake?' Harry insists. 'I don't want you to broadcast our experiences and awareness, because I sometimes wish I had got Amnesia at some point in my life.'
 'How's Abraham?' Bethany changes the subject.
 'I'll explain while I make a coffee,' Harry whispers.

Unknown Warehouse. Chanel does not deny that Harry, was in fact Jack's real father, and that when she was informed by the orphanage, that Harry and Tina were wanting to adopt Jack, back in late 1997, she wanted to allow them to adopt Jack, as long as she would keep tabs on him, while she conspired with the Cosmos. In time, she would have returned for Jack, but never thought it would be so soon. Chanel aka Carla, intended to take revenge on Harry, following his walk out on their one night stand back in the late 1980's, when Jack was conceived, but wanted to do it her way. Christopher is angry, that Chanel had kept tabs on Jack during Seasons Three and Four and that she destroyed a close family.
 'So you decided to put Lutessa Golding, a former subject of yours, on the case, after my former editor Donald Blunt started to cause a stir in my cousins life,' Christopher suspects. 'His ability made you more anxious and that he was more important to your corruption.'
 'Like you're perfect Chris,' Chanel laughs sarcastically. 'You kidnapped a policeman's wife and child and almost had your darkest moment, just to get to the truth on why you're a little tied up yourself.'
 'So not only has Harry slept with two of Bethany's siblings, he's also slept with the women I've f****d. He must've have really hated me,' Eric sighs.
 'I wouldn't worry about it, now, because you'll be free from your scorned soul very soon Hank,' Chanel smirks.
 'Look who's Talking,' Eric grunts. 'Pursuing a man with vengeance, because he wanted to stay a bachelor, until he was reunited with his true love. I mean he's stuck in a marriage with your sister, because he wants to hide his grief for Tina.'
 'A woman you claimed you loved, while you were f***** me,' Chanel adds.
 'Now don't be too greedy on brownie points Carla, after all look at us two, the ball is in your court.'
 After exchanging more unpleasant curses, Chanel decides she wants to know the location of the disc that was once in Abraham and Elaina's apartment and she starts by holding her gun against Christopher's head. Chris insists he cannot tell her, because he was after the disk himself and never found it. She asks Eric, but still holds Chris at gun point. Eric informs Chanel, that he trusted Elaina with the disk and was only aware of the disk missing, by Abraham informing him of the break in. Elaina has lost all patience and asks Chris, if he'd like one more request before she murders him.
 'I'd like to say goodbye to my cousin,' Chris requests.
 'Like that's going to happen,' Chanel chuckles.
 'Please, I didn't get to do it in person four years ago, I mean where can I go?' Chris points out, considering he's tied up.
 Chanel thinks for a moment and sends her guard to fetch her son.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany heads into the bedroom, while Harry and the girls prepare an evening supper and she pulls out the cassette tape from under the bed and wonders what she wants to do with it, as she is now completely aware of the contents on it. Harry doesn't love her the way he loved Tina and it hurts. Suddenly, it dawns on her, that Joe may have had other tapes in his possession, during the hostage situation. If he did, he could have been recording her and Dominic's admissions and worries that the tapes maybe in police possession or somebody else's. Bethany picks up her cell phone and considers calling Dominic, but he has demanded that Bethany say away indefinitely. Bethany hesitates, but she calls anyway.

 Kings Café. Dominic's cell phone rings and Charlotte soon recognizes the number, while Dom is in the café downstairs, wondering where it all went wrong. Charlotte answers it and there is an uncomfortable silence and Bethany suspects that Dominic is the one giving the uncomfortable silence.
 'OK, just here me out, I think Hayes was recording us, don't ask me how I know, but I think we could have a big problem if he has and those tapes end up in the wrong hands,' Bethany calls.
 'It already has,' Charlotte surprises.
 Charlotte hangs up, leaving Bethany in a dilemma.


Unknown Lockup. The chamber doors reopen, Chris is momentarily reunited with his adopted cousin Jack, who is now fifteen years old. Jack was eleven when he was nabbed from his adopted Grandparents apartment and now he is fifteen. Chanel places her left arm around her sons shoulder and cautiously allows him to head towards her hostage, who is almost certainly going to die, since neither Chris or Eric can give the whereabouts of the disk, that has been moved from place to place, since Jeff Wilsons abrupt death in the Caribbean. Chris wants to reach out to him, but the ropes are holding him back. Chris gets emotional and Jack stares directly at him.
 'Hi, Jack, you remember me don't you?' Chris speaks.
 'I guess,' Jack bluntly replies.
 'I've missed you,' Chris continues. 'It's good to know, that no harm has come to you.'
 'I'm with my mother, how could she harm me?' Jack figures.
 'Jack, you may have the same genes as this woman, but Tina was your mother, she loved you,' Chris insists. 'Your mother Chanel or Carla whatever her name is, she feels nothing for you. She is just using you for her gain and for hatred towards others.'
 'It's too late now, this is my future,' Jack says.
 'A future of lies, crime, deceit and running?' Chris groans. 'In case I'm not mistaken, you're psychic.'
 'So?' Jack shrugs.
 'You used your abilities for all the right reasons,' Chris adds.
 'Like I said, that was then, this is now,' Jack sarcastically answers.
 'But, it proves you were adopted by the right people,' Chris encourages Jack to listen. 'You exposed Paul Harland as a murderer, you even stopped a fraud boxer from fixing a fight with Rocky Booth and you saved a train full of people, including myself and my friend George, before it plummeted into the river. That says a lot.'
 'Are you finished?' Jack snaps.
 'Remember the people that truly love you Jack, even if Tina's not here no more, Harry does,' Chris pleads. 'I love you Jack, don't let this wicked woman destroy any sort of dignity, you have left. She's just exploiting you.'
 'Shut up, you don't know what you're talking about,' Jack refuses to agree.
 'Jack, you'll have no future if you continue this way, there will be no going back,' Chris begs.
 'Shut up!!' Jack rages back handing Chris.
 Suddenly, upon impact Jack has psychic visions of Chris's life experiences, including those, from Seasons Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven and the Final Season.

:Chris being raised by Alfred and Cheriece then being reunited with his mother, Sylvia (Season Two).
: Chris and Jeff's father son relationship.
:Chris saying goodbye to his mother at her funeral, (Season Three).
: Chris and George trapped in a train dangling over the river, (Season Four).
:Chris spending time with his cousin Jack.
:Chris's affair with Lea, Betsy Palmer as a vampire attacking Chris, (Season Five).
: Marlene being tortured by Alan Rogers and being knocked unconscious by an exploding elevator in the WTC, ( Season six).
: Chris marrying Emma and then watching Jeff's execution, (Season Seven).
: His meeting with Benjamin, Chris kidnapping Elaina and Andy. Plus, his confrontations with Eric and witnessing Abrahams hit n run.

Jack jumps back, after seeing Chris's life flash before his eyes. Jack is stunned, and Chanel intervenes, seeing as her son looks rather uncomfortable. Chanel tries to calm him and then cunningly hands Jack the pistol. Eric watches on, as Chris is now at the mercy of his adopted cousin. Cowardly, Chanel demands her own flesh and blood to commit one of the most horrific crimes. Jack points the gun directly at Chris, point blank.
 'Show him, where his loyalties stand sweetheart,' Chanel orders.
 Jack hesitates, as Chris begs Jack not to do anything, he may regret for the rest of his days.
 'Time to say goodbye Chris, you just won't cooperate,' Chanel chuckles.
 'I don't think so,' Chris whispers, as Eric looks away.
 Before Jack can blink once more, Chris is free from his ropes and snatches the gun from Jack hand, pulls Jack into a tight grip and points his gun directly at the two guards and an unarmed Chanel.
 'Nobody, move, nobody f***** move!!' Chris shouts, as it's him that now calls the shots.
 Chanel insists her men don't open fire.
 'Jack and myself are leaving and you can kiss all your asses goodbye,' Chris curses.
 'I guess that means me too?' Eric moans.
 'Sorry, Lance, but I can't let you walk free, justice must be served,' Chris reminds him.
 Chris holds a tight grips around Jack, as Chris continues to point the firearm, as he exits the chamber and escapes with Jack.
 'Jack!!' Chanel screams.
 Chanel orders one of her men to stand guard on Eric, while her other guards and herself pursue, Chris and Jack. Eric looks to one of her guards.
 'Nervous?' Eric smiles.
 Both Chris and Jack, are running through an underground sewer, which has four different walkthrough at one junction. The two continue to run, while Chris has the gun. Jack bites Chris on the arm and this infuriates Chris.
 'You stupid Bastard!!' Chris yells.
 'What did you call me?' Jack laughs running.
 'You Bastard!!'
 'Bastard huh?
 Jack cockiness gets him nowhere, as he comes to an abrupt stop, as the exit to the sewer, if a drop into a raging river. Chris corners.
 'Now, wasn't that a stupid thing to do?' Chris sighs.
 'I'll jump,' Jack threats.
 'Jack, don't be an idiot, don't be afraid, you know who I am,' Chris pleads.
 'Its too late, I've got nothing to lose, both my parents are liars,' Jack states.
 'What are you talking about? What is it you know, that Harry's lied about?'
 'I'm scared, I wanna see my Ma Ma,' Jack cries.
 'This woman is a psycho, she's dangerous,' Chris tries to explain. 'Your mind is all over the place. You don't have to be afraid.'
 'That's what I mean,' Jack tearfully shivers. 'I wanna see my Mom, Tina again. I know she loved me and the only way I will be safe now, is by ending it here.'
 'For f*** sake Jack, please don't do this,' Chris panics.
 Suddenly, Chanel's voice can be heard calling Jacks name.
 'I'm so sorry,' Jack calls.
 Jack throws himself from the funnel and into the watery depths.
 Jaaacccccckkkkk!!!' Chris squeels.
 As Chanel hears Chris's screams, Chris jumps in after him. Chanel is beside herself, when she thinks Jack has committed suicide. Chanel collapses to the floor in grief and screams out, Jacks name.
 A few miles down the river, Jack is washed up on a bank and is dragged from the river, by a female dressed in a red dress and veil, her face is not shown. It's the same figure Harry saw in   Friday 13th.
 Chris also survives the raging waters and begins his long journey to Francis Bay, in an attempt to warn Harry. Eric has managed to escape, and Chanel makes her escape.
 'We need to find Jack, but we need to get away from Lance first,' Chanel warns her guard.

 

Sunday 12th January 2003, Somewhere in the State of New York, 10:00. P.M. Eric pursues Chanel Mantel in a stolen vehicle, as she attempts to escape with one her guards in a limo. Chanel is desperate to find her son, Jack, who has been taken by an unknown female. Chris had also survived the fall into a raging river and is now attempting a quick trip to Long Island to let him know that he saw Jack and that he fears he may have died and also to reveal the truth about the woman he is married to, Bethany. Eric tries desperately to keep up with the limo in the darkness. Chanel snatches her guards gun from his pocket and opens fire at the car. Lance is hit in the shoulder and a tyre blows out. Eric loses control of the car and it veers off the road and into the river below. But what comes of Eric, remains to be seen.
 'There's no stalling, have to find Jack,' Chanel demands.

Kings Café, Francis Bay Long Island. Charlotte lays awake in bed, waiting for Dominic to make his appearance. Dominic sits tensely watching late night TV in the arm chair, as Deloris has dozed off during the programme. Now, that Charlotte is aware of the truth of what happened to their son, James, almost eight years earlier, he hopes that him knowing what happened to Glenda Robinson in Hex-Ville, will make Charlotte keep quiet and not split the family. It will destroy Deloris, as she has always looked up to her father and doted her younger brother. Charlotte has something else in mind. She will not allow the culprit, Bethany, get away with the murder of her son. By doing so, she is going to do it, she will attempt to exit the apartment, with the attention of the husband, she saw as a noble and caring soul mate and their oblivious daughter.

 About half a mile north of the town at the Wilsons, Harry helps Bethany to bed, after receiving a call from his chief of police, to remind him of what occurred at his home and may need to examine the crime scene once more. This annoys Bethany, but Harry points out a local police officer has died in their home and the supposed hostage taker, Joe Hayes had lost his life, attempting to escape town.
 'I hope this is the last of any bad luck, we've had since we've moved to the Bay,' Bethany sighs.
 'I second that,' Harry agrees.
 'How awful for Elaina,' Bethany adds. 'I pray Abraham recovers. God knows what their poor son Andy must be going through.
 'Their strong love will see them through,' Harry insists.
 Quickly Bethany gives her husband are darting stare, with his strong love quote. She realizes that Harry's love for her, will never be as strong as his true love, Tina. No matter how far in the future, they will go, Tina will always be a reminder to Harry and it makes Bethany seethe and very hurt. Bethany wanted to tell Tina once upon a time, that they were half siblings, but her hatred of Harry and Tina's love, drove her insane, as well as being hated by Billy, who is her natural and who is still keeping distance, even after twenty fours of not laying eyes on each other.
 'Our strong love will see us through won't it?' Bethany queries.
 Of course, why wouldn't it?' Harry partially smiles.
 'I don't know, you tell me?' Bethany sarcastically replies.
 'Well, don't worry, I ain't going anywhere,' Harry promises, kissing Bethany on the lips. 'Now, gets some sleep, we may have another, exhausting day tomorrow, when we see the chief tomorrow.'
 'What about Christopher?' Bethany asks.
 'I'm going work on it,' Harry says. 'Put out a missing persons report in the morning. He's bound to turn up somewhere. He's gotten as brazen as his father was. Jeff was never scared to face anything. That's what got him killed. But, I hold promise for Chris, I think even under that new arrogant side, he can be a little more cautious.'
 In Rebecca's room, an exhausted Emma is massaged by her girlfriend. The day has been a stressful one for Emma. Emma was told by Elaina that Chris had gotten in too deep, with the Eric Lance situation and that he kidnapped Elaina and Andy and that Chris had been kidnapped himself. Emma is desperately concerned for her still husband.
 'Are you thinking about Chris?' Rebecca suspects.
 'Would you be angry, if I were?' Emma wonders.
 'To be honest I'm worried about him too,' Rebecca admits. 'He's my cousin. I'm sure he'll turn up.
 'You're right, he's OK,' Emma confidently nods.
 Rebecca passionately kisses Emma on the lips and heads downstairs to fetch them a glass of water. Suddenly, Emma's cell phone rings. Emma begins to wonder who is calling so late at night. Maybe Elaina. Emma does not recognize the caller and suspect it is Elaina calling from the hospital in New York. Emma answers her cell.
 'Hello?' Emma calls.
 'Don't say a word,' Christopher warns. 'I know I've screwed up and I've gone about it the wrong way I know. It's the only way this can be done and I need you to trust me Emma, because I want you to know, that I never could love Benjamin, like I love you. Why else would I marry you. When I first saw you, on the opening day of your father's senate state campaign, my perfect dream was right before my eyes. I don't know how you feel about me now, whether you still love me or not, I don't want to know. Whether you do or not, I hope you and Rebecca keep each other safe. Because not only will you two need it, but uncle Harry will. Meet me tomorrow at Brookhaven State Park, of Middle Country Road, off route 46, Long Island, East Shoreham. I'm in a stolen vehicle, not one of my best moves, but I hope to still have this car tomorrow, as you'll need to phone me on this number so store or hopefully it will be a redial number. 8:00 am. I counting on you Emma, I know we split up in the most awkward way, but I'd do anything to hold you one more time and put it right. I love you Emma. In case something does go wrong, tell Elaina and Abraham, I'm so sorry.'
 Chris hangs up, leaving Emma emotional and shaken. Emma is relieved that Chris is still alive. Rebecca returns and Emma tries her best to act as if the call never occurred. She forces a smile and puts her arms around Rebecca, as a sign of compassion. It soon dawns on her, she genuinely loves Rebecca, but in the deepest of regrets, she let go of Christopher.

 Christopher speeds on a Long Island highway to Francis Bay. But, he wants to bring justice in the right way, as to not bring harm to Harry. As Long as Carla is still at large with her
Cosmos connections, then anything can go wrong. The remaining connections, could have had the Wilsons watched for months, seeing as Bethany is Carla's sister.


Monday 13th January 2003, 00:00. A.M., Kings Café, Doping Dominic seems to have done the trick and he's fast asleep. Charlotte quietly changing into dark clothes and takes out the gun from inside the cupboard, as she prepares to confront Bethany. Charlotte checks the chamber, it's loaded. She checks to make sure Deloris is asleep and kisses her on the face, as she is about to take a dangerous risk against a dangerous woman. Charlotte notices the trash can is full and places the gun down on the table. Charlotte takes the trash downstairs, just as the door closes and locks behind her, without noticing. Into the dark alley behind the café Charlotte steps and throws the trash into the large container and she quickly turns to head back in, when her path is blocked by her enemy........Bethany.

The confrontation between Charlotte and Bethany is frightfully tense, especially for Charlotte who has just discovered that Bethany was the one who caused her son to perish in the King family home, eight years previous. Bethany on the other hand is desperate to devour all secrets of her past and other crimes she has committed. Dominic is now aware of what came of Glenda Robinson in Hex-Ville, exactly a month earlier, but whatever comes of Charlottes and Dominic's future, Charlotte wants Bethany most of all to pay.
 'Where are you off to all darkly dressed this time of night?' Bethany surprises.
 'I could ask the same of you,' Charlotte sarcastically remains calm.
 'My, that's quite a bump on your head there,' Bethany points out.
 'Yours stands out perfectly,' Charlotte answers. 'Too bad your injury was caused by someone, who hated you, just as much as I do right now.'
 'What you heard on the phone, I'd like to make a certain thing clear..........' Bethany tries to lie.
 'You did make it perfectly clear and so did my husband,' Charlotte interrupts.
 'Joe Hayes manipulation before his demise?' Bethany suspects. 'And now Dom knows about Mrs Robinson.'
 'What brings you here this time of night, Beth?' Charlotte asks. 'You didn't sneak out to wait for me to sneak out with incriminating evidence, or were you worried I'd get to you, before you got to me?'
 'You not that dumb are you?' Bethany laughs. 'But, just in case you've forgotten, you were also involved with what happened in that High School classroom, a month ago.'
 'It's all clear to me now, the same asylum ward we shared and I did not imagine you seducing Dominic when both of us were in vulnerable state,' Charlotte explains. Why was it, you wanted him so bad, in return for helping Dominic murder my son?'
 'You honestly think, I purposely kill your son, because he was out of his depth?' Bethany grunts. 'Of course you already that I was behind Jeff Wilsons murder now don't you?'
 'And all credit to Hayes.'
 'Question is, what are you gonna do about it?'
 'I'll take my chances,' Charlotte insists.
 'So will I,' Bethany threats.
 'Be careful Beth, I could implicate that as a threat,' Charlotte says.
 'A threat?' Bethany laughs off. 'Honey, you ain't nothing yet. If you wanna see your son again, just say the word, I'll send you to him.'
 'If I die, you can go hell,' Charlotte counters.
 Charlotte puts her hand in her pocket and realizes her gun has been left on the table, upstairs in the apartment and out of her pocket, falls sleeping pills. Charlotte has made a grave mistake. Bethany's evil smirk, makes what is coming next, even more frightening and devilish.
 'You didn't pop pills in your husbands and daughters drink to make them sleep, because you were coming after me did you?' Bethany spots. 'You really think you can avenge your sons death, by killing me. You wouldn't do it, it would break Deloris heart.'
 'I'm doing this for Deloris, it ends now.'
 'How right you are.....it ends for you,' Bethany smugly grins.
 'Oh, and you and who's army?'
 'I'd like to introduce you to Benita,' Bethany points.
 Charlotte turns round and is shocked to find that Benita, is that of the Francis Bay Murderer, who's has already claimed the lives of the known victims of Linda Perry, Steven Whittaker and Clara Barton.
 Although there maybe more victims, that the Audience or anyone else may not be aware of, except Bethany. Charlotte looks like she may be the fourth victim of the serial killer. The psycho's face is again obscured from the audience. The murderer again is in the same female form, long blondish hair style, in a dark cloak, a skirt, with high heeled boots and in possession of a Machete. Charlotte is terrified and her heart beats faster by every terrifying second.
 'I'm so Charlotte, but it has to end this way, no hard feelings,' Bethany whispers.
 Charlotte attempts to make her escape, by running back into the café kitchen via the back door, as the Francis Bay killer, calmly walks toward the building. Charlotte rushes into the café and staright to the apartment door, but the door is locked, as both the keys and gun are still on the table. Charlotte cries out for the help of Dominic and Deloris. Neither can hear her, as both have been made asleep. Charlotte kicks and scream frantically and profusely, but then is distracted by the appearance of Bethany behind the counter. Charlotte does not hesitate with one more attempt at an escape and she heads down into the basement, where quantities of storage is kept and realizing that he underground pathway door is locked, Charlotte is running out of time. She then hears footsteps coming towards the Basement. Charlotte sees her defence in the shape of a crowbar and grabs it without , so much as a second thought. Charlotte races round to the basement staircase, and sees Bethany stop half way down the steps. Charlotte raises her crowbar, refusing to go down without a fight.
 'Come and get me you Bitch,' Charlotte growls.
 What Charlotte doesn't realize, is that the Francis Bay killer, has made it to the basement before either of the two ladies and is behind Charlotte ready to strike. Bethany watches on without so much as remorse, as the murderer puts its hand over Charlottes mouth and murders her in cold blood. Blood is seen spurting across the basement, as Bethany coldly makes sure the job is done.

 

Monday 13th January 2003. 1 Mile outside, Francis Bay, Long Island. 01:30 A.M. Chris sits in a stolen car, looking at the night view of Francis Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. In looks diagonal North East, as he can spot the Wilson Lighthouse, spotlight scouring the sea. He is in two minds on whether he should or should not expose Bethany straight away, but doing more cautiously by getting the help of Emma to spy on Bethany, whilst living with Rebecca. Christopher is ashamed of what he had done to get to Eric, by kidnapping Elaina and Andy and threatening them. He has lost so much in recent years, his mother Sylvia, his best friend George and then his father, Jeff. Needing a second chance with Emma, is his second chance in life. Chris takes out three photographs from his wallet. One is of him with Jeff and Sylvia, the other with George at the New York Times and lastly Emma and Chris after they met. Photographs is all he has of the ones he was closest too. Chris looks once more North East in the direction of the Wilsons. What if Emma makes a mistake and puts herself in danger? What if Chris doesn't act quick enough? What if Jack is never seen again? Maybe, he should move in right away and end it all now.
 'No, better time for a wake up call, than now,' Chris says to himself.
 Parked in the lay by, Chris attempts to start the car, but to no avail. It's ran out of gas.
 'Shit,' Chris moans.
 Chris gets out of the car, and kicks the door in frustration. Trying to get his composure, he rests momentarily on the drivers side, wondering how he will deal with, what he's about to do. Its' quiet, too quiet. The night is still, all that can be heard is the ocean in the background. After a few moments pass, an engine can be heard in the distance. From the intersection behind him, a truck swings from the direction of the woodlands, and speeds past him at a pace.
 'Hey,' Chris calls, hoping the truck would stop.
 It doesn't. Chris recognizes the red truck, as it speeds towards Francis Bay. It's Benjamin's truck. But, if Benjamin was driving, why did he not stop to help the man he supposedly loves?
 'Benjamin,' Chris suspects.
 Not hesitating, Chris leaves the stolen vehicle and runs on foot to the Wilsons.


 Francis Bay, Long Island. Christopher now breathless and exhausted, reaches the house and stops to catch his breath. He sees that Benjamin's truck is parked in his usual spot. Chris suspects that Benjamin was out looking for him. Before Chris can make his way to the front door of his Uncle Harry's home, something suspicious catches his eye. A figure moving inside the Lighthouse, behind the spotlight. Chris stares for a few seconds up at the Lighthouse and slowly takes a slow walk towards it. Chris feels a cold chill rush down his spine. It's the dead of night and he is about to take probably one of his defining steps of his life, at 2:00 am in the morning, near the cold Atlantic seaboard. A dense fog starts to approach in land, and surges up the estuary towards the Bay and even more tensely the Lighthouse and the Wilson house. Emma lays awake, staring at the ceiling, with Rebecca's arm laying across her waist, unaware Christopher is outside. Christopher enters the lighthouse, as the fog closes in. Christopher slowly proceeds up the curving staircase to the top. He reaches the top and the inside is almost entirely consumed with fog. Outside, nothing can be seen. Christopher is walking through it and he stops abruptly, as he senses an extremely terrifying presence within the vicinity of his space. Through the dense fog, behind him, just in the spotlight shadow, is the shape of the Francis Bay Killer. Surely, after all his near death experiences and great survival instincts in recent years, he cannot succumb to the mass murderer, who had brutally taken Charlottes life that same night?

 Bethany turns to see her husband, Harry still in a peaceful sleep. He was completely oblivious, she had left the house that night to commit an horrific crime.


 Kings Café. Both Deloris and Dominic are in their deep sleeps, following Charlotte drugging them, so she could attempt her revenge on Bethany. What they don't know is, is that poor Charlotte has been bludgeoned to death in the café basement.

 Metropolitan Medical Center, Manhattan, NYC. Elaina lays her head by Abraham's side, praying he will make it through and pull out of his coma. Elaina tightly holds onto her soul mates hands, hoping he will return her tender touch.


 Unknown Address. Gloria Lang, hops into bed and take morphine to ease her pain, after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. She looks at a group photo and one of them in it, is Rebecca, whom she remembers as Alicia.

 

 Francis Bay Harbour. The last verse of, Ah- Ha's 'I Wish I Cared,' plays into the final scene.

 'Heeeeey, I wish I cared.'

Benjamin is seen exiting his fisherman officer and then partially, yet smugly smirks to himself. He then proceeds to his red truck.

'I wish I cared, yes I really do
(hey)
I wish I cared
I wish I cared, yes I really
(hey)
I wish I cared, I wish I cared (hey).'

Benjamin is then seen driving off, as the camera raises into the air and in the distance, the fog can been seen clearing the Wilson Lighthouse.

 Friday 9th February 1979, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York. Dominic arrives home, where he receives a phone call from Manhattan. It's Charlotte. He is so pleased to hear the voice of the girl, who aided him after he was injured in New York a few weeks earlier.
'Charlotte, what a surprise,' Dominic joyfully answers. 'I didn't think I would hear from you again after we last saw each other.'
 'Just because we live over two hundred miles away, doesn't mean we live forever apart,' Charlotte adds.
'I didn't make the best of impressions, when we first met,' Dominic says.
'You know what your first words were? Charlotte said.
'Can't say I do,' Dominic confusingly raises his eyebrows.

'Of course how silly of me, ha ha,' Charlotte chuckles. 'I told my name was Charlotte. And you replied, 'I'm pissed.'
'Really?' Dominic frowns. 'I guess Greg Mcquire made me a bad influence of me.'
'Well, I wanted to let you know, that our few hours together, made me realize, that there was more to our long conversation here those weeks ago and I'm glad we exchanged numbers,' Charlotte explains.
'Does that mean you want to see me again?' Dominic queries.
'Of course it does,' Charlotte smiles. 'You're not as geeky as everyone thinks you are kind sir.'
'I don't know if I can make it to New York again anytime soon,' Dominic sighs frustrated.
'That you don't have to worry about,' Charlotte insists. 'I've told my parents that I'm going to Long Island with friends for the weekend and they're covering for me. Looks like I'm headed to the suburbs.'
'Have you anywhere to stay?' Dominic wonders.
 'Don't panic I'll make sure we're
discreet, a motel of course,' Charlotte assures.
'Charlotte?' '
Yes?'
'Why me? What I mean is, out of all the guy in the city, why choose me?'
'Your my kind of guy and I think you need me just as much,' Charlotte figures.
'You don't know how warmed I am to your words,' Dominic appreciates.
'Well, be seeing ya.'
'What time are you arriving? Where shall we meet? Dominic asks.
'I'll surprise you.'
'Bye.'
'Bye my love.'
 The two hang up and Dominic heads up to his bedroom and dances around in excitement. He is going to spend a weekend with city girl. Then he feels a tweak in his back, as he aggravated his injury from being hit in New York. He sits on his bed and spots Bethany walking up the opposite street, who has abuse thrown at her from local gangs in their car.
'Why don't you go drive off a ravine you assholes!!' Bethany curses.
Dominic lays back on his bed and stares at the ceiling smiling to himself. He feels the luckiest young man alive.

 

 

Monday 20th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Dominic stands opposite to the café, looking at the 'missing' poster of Charlotte, who has been gone over a week. What he and Deloris don't know, is that she was brutally murdered by the Francis Bay Killer in their basement. It has been driving Dominic insane and he has approached Bethany about his missing wife, but she has denied knowing about Charlottes fate. Also scattered across the state are missing posters of Christopher Wilson, who's fate remains a mystery. Dominic is so guilty for allow things to escalate, the way they did. He feels that he is responsible for allowing his son to die years earlier and to bring pain to his wife. He fears her disappearance is down to a suicide or she has gone walk about. He refuses to believe she is dead, but how long can brazen Bethany keep the truth. Dominic leaves the lamppost and returns to the café,, which has remained closed for a whole week, only to see Deloris putting up the open signs. Deloris is still in tears, is completely oblivious to the second weekend previous, revelations. Dominic turn the sign back to closed, as Deloris continues to pull chairs off the table onto the floor. Dominic attempts to stop her.
 'Deloris, what are you doing?' Dominic intercepts.
 'I'm opening up,' Deloris answers, trying to ignore her fathers hint. 'We can't keep a home, if we don't run the café.'
 'Deloris, feeding people won't keep you occupied from your grieving,' Dominic reminds his daughter.
 'Daddy, will you just let me be?' Deloris cries
 'No, I won't,' Dominic refuses. 'I'm your father, you need protecting.'
 'Daddy, I'm twenty two years old, not twelve,' Deloris argues. 'Mom is gonna be found safe and well, I know it.'
 'I don't doubt that for a minute,' Dominic agrees. 'But, that's no excuse for you to be so stubborn.'
 'And I wonder where I got that from,' Deloris sighs.
 'Deloris, I mean it, stop what you're doing,' Dominic orders, as he attempts to snatch cutlery away from her.
 Deloris turns to not allow him to.
 'I can take care of myself,' Deloris snaps.
 'Deloris?' Dominic raises his voice.
 'I said, I want you to leave me the f*** alone!!' Deloris screams.
 Deloris grabs a mug and throw it towards Dominic and he ducks out the way. Deloris is shocked by her actions and Dominic quickly embraces his heartbroken daughter. Outside across the street, Bethany looks on and hears the anguish of Deloris.

 

 

 Metropolitan Medical Center, Manhattan, NYC. Abraham has remained in a coma for over a week and still no change in his condition. Doctors have allowed two months until a decision is made, on whether to let Abraham pass away. Elaina is not determined not to give up. Outside the hospital, CNN report on Abraham's condition. 'Abraham Carlisle aged 36 still remains in a deep coma following a hit and run a week a go yesterday in Saratoga Springs. The international hero who disarmed a nuclear warhead in a Manhattan subway almost a year ago, shows no change yet of regaining consciousness. Many citizens have given their deepest sorrow and handed prayers , as well as gifts and flowers to the grieving wife, Elaina Carlisle, who is almost twenty four seven by her police lieutenant husbands beside. Mr Carlisle has been remembered for his heroics and they have been duly appreciated as many supporters, hope for a miracle. It's unknown who caused Lieutenant Carlisle's deliberate attack and why. Mrs Carlisle is not up for comment. Their son is staying with a relative.'
Citizens outside hold up banners in support and screaming for justice, for Abraham's attacker to be caught. Elaina stands looking out the hospital window down at the warm giving's city is doing for Abraham and herself. It's overwhelming. Elaina knows the truth on what happened in Saratoga Springs, but has no intension on revealing anything to the press or the police. Elaina has no incline where Christopher or Eric Lance could be. Emma is also worried for Christopher. Emma enters Abraham's room and embraces Elaina.
 'I can't believe the support you have had,' Emma says.
 'Neither can I,' Elaina replies. 'It's so heart warming.'
 Emma turns and approaches Abraham, who's remains in critical condition, with Life support giving hope. She touches his hand.
 'How is he?' Emma asks.
 'Same as before,' Elaina acknowledges. 'He won't give up that easily. It's not his style.'
 'Do you think he knows we're here?' Emma wonders.
 'I don't know,' Elaina shrugs. 'Be nice if he did. Any news on Christopher, since he called you?'
 'Nothing,' Emma answers. 'Lance has gone off the radar. I'm like you on the edge.'
 'On the edge of what, being the grieving widow?' Elaina said. 'Not likely.'
 'The car they found abandoned just outside of Francis Bay was the one stolen by Chris, he was more or less close to home and just like that, he vanishes again,' Emma explains. 'Where in Gods name happened to him between the time he called me and when the police found the stolen vehicle. He wanted to meet up with me over fifty miles away and he doesn't show. Maybe he didn't have enough courage to trust me in the end and ran.'
 'Well, he sounded desperate to have faith in you, as well as him needing you to have faith in him, otherwise why call you?' Elaina adds.
 'Yeah true,' Emma frowns. 'Whatever it was he wanted to tell me, sounded really vital.'
 'Probably to do with Lance..........or Harry?'
 'I just hope he's OK. I still care about him.'
 'So do I.'
 'Even though he kidnapped and threatened you and Andy?'
 'He's just a misguided twenty three year old man,' Elaina figures. 'He'll come home when he's brave enough.'
 'I hope so, I have had nothing but lectures and blame from Benjamin Bates since last week,' Emma sighs.

Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca returns home from a walk out, as Harry and Benjamin share a quiet discussion near the estuary. This annoys Rebecca, but she suspects they are discussing Christopher's whereabouts. Rebecca is about to head inside, when Harry looks round and see's her heading in.
 'Hey you, where you sneaking off to?' Harry calls.
 'I saw you two were getting cosy, so I thought I wouldn't darken the moment,' Rebecca sarcastically speaks.
 'We're just talking about Christopher, that's all,' Harry points out.
 'Oh yeah, Christopher,' Rebecca grunts.
 'Does "oh yeah, Christopher," kind of sound like I don't give a shit?' Benjamin snaps.
 'Alright Benjamin that's enough,' Harry orders.
 'You didn't give a shit about poor Deloris, when you set up that orgy,' Rebecca counters.
 'Didn't see you complaining,' Benjamin reminds Rebecca. 'But, then again did you have a choice?'
 Rebecca remembers Benjamin blackmail, into revealing her true identity if she didn't participate in the orgy set up, and poor Deloris was the one heartbroken.
 'You are one bitch, BB,' Rebecca argues.
 'Oh look at me I'm f***** shaking,' Benjamin grumbles.
 'Go hook yourself a shark and jump in it's mouth.'
 Rebecca again is about to turn away, when Harry stops her.
 'OK, you two that's enough,' Harry orders. 'Benjamin go home, we'll have a much more mature conversation later please. And before you have another tantrum honey, a friend of yours has stopped by, she's in the kitchen.'
 'Who is it?' Rebecca raises her eyebrow.
 'It's a surprise, she insisted,' Harry claims.
 'Not another skeleton in the cupboard is it?' Benjamin laughs walking back to his cabin house.
 'Ha ha funny, yeah, I'm laughing look,' Rebecca gives the middle finger and Benjamin glances round.
 'I just hope your friend, hasn't heard this embarrassing altercation,' Harry rolls his eyes.
 Rebecca heads into the house and into the kitchen and is shocked to find Gloria Lang drinking coffee.
 'Surprise,' Gloria grins.
 'Yeah, say that again.'


 Bethany is leaving work at the bank, on Francis Bay Harbour, when she accidently bumps into Dominic, who has Deloris by his side. Bethany freezes momentarily, knowing what really happened in the tragedy of Charlotte King. A beloved wife and mother, cruelly taken in the most brutal of circumstances by the Francis Bay Killer, whoever it is? What's worse, is that Bethany has known about the murderer ever since the Wilsons moved to Long Island from the city. Bethany then embraces Deloris, as Dominic cannot believe her nerve, but he holds his by looking out to sea.
 'How you holding up?' Bethany asks.
 'I just want her to come home,' Deloris cries. 'I know she's OK, I know it.'
 'Of course she is, she's probably just got lost and found a safe haven somewhere,' Bethany brainwashes.
 'Yeah, you're right, Bethany's right isn't she Dad?' Deloris tugs on her fathers jacket.
 'C'mon cupcake, lets go,' Dominic feeling urgent to go.
 'Daddy, Bethany was just being nice,' Deloris said.
 'Whatever, lets go,' Dominic ignores, taking his daughter by the arm and dragging her away.
 'Bye,' Deloris waves.
 Bethany nods, but then quickly runs to her car and round the other side and throws up.

 

 

 Rebecca is still shocked to find Gloria Lang, a former friend from just a few years ago. Gloria still remembers Rebecca as Alicia, and Rebecca is fearful that her true identity will get out one day and it has come extremely close, when her birth mother, Clara showed up, before she was tragically murdered by the Francis Bay, Killer, almost a month ago. Rebecca goes to make a fresh cup of coffee for both herself and Gloria, but the plug socket has blown. Gloria insists it's not a problem.
 'I'm sorry, that I did what I did, but we got on so well, before you left Rick and Florida,' Gloria says.
 'Surprised you went to all the trouble to follow me here,' Rebecca replies taking a seat. 'But, I guess it's means so much since....since uh.....'
 'You can say it Rebecca,' Gloria interrupts. 'I've got cancer and there is absolutely nothing that can be done.'
 'Gloria, I'm devastated for you, how awful,' Rebecca sighs. 'Your family must be heartbroken.'
 'I don't have that much family or that many friends,' Gloria explains. 'In case you did forget, my mother died when I was eleven and my father ran off with a waitress to Rio, five years ago and haven't seen him since. I haven't been that close to any cousins or aunts or uncles. Ever since my late teens, I been very much on my own.'
 'Look, I apologise for being so defensive last week at the hospital, you caught me off guard,' Rebecca points out.
 'You don't have to worry, I didn't come to expose you, I came here because I would like to spend time with somebody I loved, before I die,' Gloria states.
 Gloria don't say that,' Rebecca pleads.
 'Yeah, it's Morbid I know,' Gloria acknowledges. 'But, I can't deny that it will happen.'
 'May I ask what type?.....'
 'Brain Tumour, I have between three to six months,' Gloria informs. 'Although it may exceed before that.'
 'So young, you're only what twenty two?' Rebecca guesses.
 'Dying is a part of life, Rebecca.'
 'What is it about people dying in my life, first Mom, then my uncle, Linda and my........' Rebecca cries.
 'Your Mom?' Gloria questions.
 Rebecca is hesitant. Rebecca was referring to Tina as her mother, a woman whom she never met and supposedly tragically perished in the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center. But, Tina was never her mother. Rebecca was about to refer Clara as her real Mom, but then stopped.
 'Can we stop there and change the subject, lets talk about something else, something positive,' Rebecca suggests.
 'Why did you do it?' Gloria begins.
 'Do what, run away? Rick was a prick,' Rebecca grunts.
 'That's not what I was talking about......Alicia,' Gloria whispers.
 'Don't ever call me that,' Rebecca warns.
 'In case you didn't hear me right, I was whispering,' Gloria sarcastically replies.
 'Not up for discussion do you hear? Or you can leave right now,' Rebecca demands.
 'But, you're making a fool out of a man, who thinks you're his daughter,' Gloria realizes.
 'It's not like that,' Rebecca insists.
 'Harry is Rebecca Craig's real father, Gloria reminds Rebecca. 'Rebecca was the girl who supposedly drowned when you were young.'
 'You're very forward for a dying girl, you know that,' Rebecca answers.
 'Ouch, that hurt.'
 'Look I shouldn't have said that, but the talk about my secret makes me very uneasy and guilty.'
 'You must love Harry very much?'
 'Yes I do, God knows what will happen if he knew the truth.'
 'Who's Linda?'
 'Oh, just a close friend of the families,' Rebecca lies.
 'Did you ever consider finding your birth parents?' Gloria continues to pursue.
 'Enough talk about me, it could get very boring how about you?' Rebecca avoids.
 'Well, what can I say?' Gloria continues. 'What you see is what you get. A tragic end to what began as a promising future. You and I we're more alike than you think. I may not hold the big secret you have, but being alone, can drive you to the point where your life comes to a shuddering halt and you don't know whether to jump or search for a second chance. You got yours, all I need is a consolation. Your sin will go to my grave. I forgive you for running away, without saying goodbye, because I want to say goodbye properly. I don't want to die alone, I'm scared.'
 Rebecca is brought to tears by Gloria's speech and pulls Gloria into her arms and they embrace. Benjamin notices the two girls sharing a hug in the kitchen, from outside his cabin house. Bethany then returns home from work and spots HER son staring at the kitchen window. Bethany frowns and approaches him.
 'You know, you'll create more suspicion if you keep getting up close and personal, what's got you occupied this time, honey?' Bethany queries.
 'Your Ex part time lover, has a friend in the kitchen,' Benjamin said.
 'Another interference?' Bethany rolls her eyes.
 'Not sure,' Benjamin shrugs.
 'Oh by the way, bumped into Dominic and Deloris a few minutes ago.'
 'Holy shit, that must've been intense as well as awkward.'
 'Good job, you're keeping a low profile then,' Bethany hints.
 'Meaning?' Benjamin frowns
 'Benita hasn't returned.'
 'I don't need to keep a low profile mother, it's Benita that the public need to be worried about. Right?'
 'Of course, Mommy's baby boy,' Bethany smirks, kissing him quickly on the lips. 'You seen Harry?'
 'Probably gone to see Dominic and Deloris,' Benjamin suspects.
 'OK, well, I guess I'd better go check out this friend of Rebecca's then,' Bethany breathes.
 Bethany heads into the house the camera closes in on her.

 


Saturday 10th February 1979, Hexville, Upstate New York. Bethany is doing the washing, as her mother is laid out drunk on the sofa. Carla enters the living room, dressed in skimpy clothing and very heavy makeup. Bethany looks glumly at her older sibling.
'F*** me, I didn't know the circus was in town,' Bethany laughs.
'Don't forget to hang yourself out to dry, will you Beth sweetheart?' Carla counters.
'What exactly do you achieve by humping Hank Willis and Jeff Wilson?' Bethany groans.
'It's what I'm good at,' Carla claims. 'You're only good for one thing, pining.'
'I'm not pining,' Bethany denies.
'Oh please, you haven't stopped beating the "I'm in love with Harry Wilson," drum for God knows how long,' Carla suggests.
'Like you don't have the hot's for him.'

'All the girls want Harry, he's such a dish,' Carla grins. 'But you, your love is a dying one.'
'He's with Tina, he's always loved her,' Bethany tuts.
'And that pisses you right off.' '
I have nothing against Tina.'
'Except maybe her father, your father,' Carla notes.
'Billy Mcquire won't acknowledge that, Bethany reminds Carla. 'Can't believe neither Tina or Greg know about me, let alone Audrey. '
'You don't need an asshole father like that,' Carla insists.
'And I don't need a whore for a sister,' Bethany wines.
'At least I'm still here,' Carla argues.
'Yeah, only because you haven't found anywhere better. If you found the perfect chance to ditch us, you'd do it.'
 'Now you're talking complete nonsense,' Carla thinks. 'Listen, since the lab explosion, you've been hurting over Harry, but don't forget the hero that saved your life. Why don't you give Dominic a call, will give you a chance to catch up. Let him fill you in on his and Greg's all nighter in Manhattan a few weeks ago. Never know, he might take you next time.'
Carla exits the house.

 

 The parents of Rosaline Mack are still in disarray over the disappearance of their beloved daughter, who has been missing for nearly two weeks. Missing posters have been put up on almost every corner in the suburbs of Hexville. A few have even been placed across New York City, 260 miles south of Hexville. Albert Kray gives his much support to the Mack family and he promises he will do whatever it takes to track down their offspring.

Harry and Tina take a stroll through Hex-Ville park, as Harry reads the missing report in the newspaper.
'This is really bad, how could this happen?' Harry sighs.
'I know, mind you she has been one for doing disappearing acts and always had the knack to avoid confrontation,' Tina replies. 'Wasn't she in your Music and Drama class?' Harry queries.
'Yeah, when she decided to turn up, she always claimed she never missed a class. Either I'm blind or she's invisible,' Tina explains. 'Well, wherever she is, I hope she's OK,' Harry says.
'You don't think somebody took her or?......' Tina negatively suggests. '
No, God forbid, lets hope she's just pulled a stunt like your brother and Dominic did and went to Manhattan for a little vacation,' Harry whispers.
'Somebody must know something,' Tina figures.

 Jonathan Wilson sits in Bucks Diner staring profusely at Rosaline Mack's missing poster. He knows he and other part time connections to Project 'Gemini' based in the area 51 of Nevada, were responsible for Rosaline's disappearance. In steps Albert Kray and he orders a coffee and notices Jon in a world of his own and he sits opposite him.
'Hey, Jonathan buddy, you're in a world of your own there,' Albert points out.
'Oh hey, there Albert, sorry, I was just thinking,' Jonathan informs. 'How's it coming along finding that poor girl?' Jonathan asks. 'I'll tell you it's a mystery man,' Albert answers. 'I don't know about her parents, but it's got me tormented.'
'It's not my place to ask, but was their any hints to her disappearance, like background?'
'She did have a tenancy in not turning up to lessons, but weird thing is, she always claimed she never missed a class and was always on time with her projects,' Albert states.
'Maybe, she copied from other students,' Jonathan thinks. 'From what I was told, students and teachers that queried her absence from class, saw that she had her work complete straight after lesson. You can't copy work that fast within sixty seconds, can you?'
'Are we talking paranormal activity here?' Jon tries not to laugh.
 'I certainly hope not, but it's not just happened at school, it's happened at home too, there is something seriously not right here, and I'm gonna get to the bottom of it,' Albert promises, as the waitress brings his coffee.
'Good luck,' Jonathan raises his cup.

 'I don't think I should be the one telling you this, but the towns people think highly of you but Jeff, is the snag' Albert begins. 'You've built homes, you've given great comfort and advice to friends, you know between right and wrong. If Jeff sets a good example between now and next year, you could be in for a big challenge.'
'Big challenge?' Jonathan sternly acknowledges.
'Mayor Perring is retiring, hint has it, he wants you to run for mayor, Albert claims.
'Me? For Mayor? Jonathan chuckles.
'Even Otto thinks you're the perfect acquisition to succeed Perring,' Albert tells Jon.
 'I don't know what to say,' Jon gasps.
'Don't say anything, it's between you and I and don't tell Mary. This will put Harry's future in perspective as well as your own. You will deserve it.'
Albert finishes his coffee and heads to the door and turns to face Jonathan and gives him the thumbs up, before exiting. Jonathan sits shocked by Albert's suggestion. His dilemma has got even more complicated. He has got himself involved in unavoidable kidnapping and criminal work and he has been offered the best chance to do good in his life. Jon again looks at Rosaline's photo will tremendous guilt. Sat behind Jon on another table, a thirty something year old man, has overheard Jon's and Albert's conversation and sits smug as he looks out of the window.

Dominic calls in the flower store to buy flowers for Charlottes visit from the city. He sees that Audrey is behind the counter and he gets a bit nervous, seeing as he and Greg went on a drinking binge in Manhattan a few weeks back. He approaches the counter cautiously but she doesn't seem too uncomfortable by his presence.
'Hi Mrs Mcquire, is OK for me to.....?' Dominic tries to ask.
'If you come to apologise, you don't have to, but it was a stupid thing to do,' Audrey points out.
 'I total agree, very immature,' Dominic agrees.
'And you're not twenty one either, Mr King, so you nor my son should have been drinking,' Audrey adds.
'Look it's none of my business, but it seems Greg's drinking stems from his father......'
'Your right it's not your concern my love, but thank you for showing concern, but if you want to remain a friend to Greg, don't pry on him. It's a family matter anyway,' Audrey warns. '
'My lips are sealed,' Dominic accepts. 'You work weekends?'
'Only today, my assistants gone to a wedding, happy bloody days huh?' Audrey rolls her eyes.
'What flowers do you recommend for a first date?'
 'Oh, who is the lucky lady?' '
'Somebody I met from the city, she's really nice. Her names Charlotte, but I don't want my parents to know just yet,' Dominic explains.
'I see,' Audrey raises her eyebrows.
'Erm, tell what flowers are traditional in England? What flowers did Mr Mcquire get you on your first date?'
'He actually got somebody to pick Scottish Thistles for me and have them delivered to me in London,' Audrey informs.
'What are they like?' Dominic wonders.
'They're purple and can be prickly, but he made sure they were delivered safely. Probably the rarest nicest thing he's done. There is also the Welsh Daffodil, or Daises as well as Roses. Tell you what I'll do, since we don't sell, Thistles, I'll give you one of each. A Welsh Daffodil, a few Daisies, really nice ones and of course, the English Rose,' Audrey kindly offers.

 'Thank you Mrs Mcquire, how much?' Dominic smiles.
 'Your appreciation is just fine, now scarper before she does,' Audrey grins. Dominic shows his appreciation by planted a kiss on Audrey's cheek and exits.

 

 

 Monday 20th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Benjamin interrupts Rebecca and Gloria's conversation in the kitchen. Rebecca feels uncomfortable by his presence, but Gloria gets butterflies in her stomach, when he enters and lays a big cheesy grin on him.
 'Well, hello handsome,' Gloria cheerfully smiles.
 'Hi,' Benjamin nervously replies.
 'Fed up of your own company, already?' Rebecca sarcastically acknowledges. 'I would be.'
 'Are you talking about me, or about yourself, Becks? Benjamin grunts.
 'Touchy, aren't we?' Rebecca tries to provoke.
 'Actually, I came to fix the plug socket, you nearly burnt the house down with. Bethany sent me over,' Benjamin informs.
 'Oh aren't you the night in shining armour, please don't let me stop you,' Rebecca insists.
 Benjamin glances at Gloria and proceeds to fix the plug socket. Gloria stares for a prolonged period of time, as Benjamin starts to work in the kitchen. Rebecca gives a stern look at Gloria, and finds it annoying that Gloria finds Benjamin attractive.
 'He's a good looking guy,' Gloria whispers. 'I'm surprised you never considered.........'
 'Believe me, he's not my type,' Rebecca interrupts. 'Take my advice, he's a snake.'
 'If I didn't know any better, I swear you had a thing for this guy,' Gloria suggests.
 'Not even in a billion different life times,' Rebecca denies. 'Like I said, don't be fooled by the tall, dark, blued eyed hypnosis.'
 Gloria then looks at the clock and then to her watch.
 'Oh, my goodness, I didn't realize I've been here that long, Ali....Rebecca,' Gloria corrects herself, as Benjamin takes note of Gloria's clanger.
 Rebecca looks round and catches Benjamin overhearing, but Benjamin then smugly smiles and gets back to work on the blown out socket.
 'You don't have to rush off,' Rebecca encourages. 'Why don't you stay for dinner.'
 'That's nice of you, thanks,' Gloria appreciates. 'I bet you'll be glad to see the back of me.'
 'She gets no complaints, when Emma turns her back on her,' Benjamin chuckles.
 'Benjamin why don't you do something useful like put your tongue in that plug socket?' Rebecca moans. 'In fact consider something more sensitive.'
 Gloria then realizes the tension between both Rebecca and Benjamin and grabs her hand bag. Rebecca escorts Gloria to the driveway and to her car. Rebecca embraces Gloria, who feels she had connected with Rebecca strongly again, after a few years apart.
 'I'll be here for you,' Rebecca promises. 'And if you require me, when you have Chemotherapy, I'll won't hesitate for a moment to be by your side.'
 'You're still the best Rebecca, really you are,' Gloria tearfully states.
 'If you'll accept my second offer for dinner, I'd like you to meet Emma,' Rebecca proposes.
 'Does that mean, you trust me? I may have a brain tumour, but I'm not losing my mind just yet. I won't make you feel uncomfortable in front of Harr...I mean your Daddy. I'm your friend and hopefully mine,' Gloria said.
 'Friends forever,' Rebecca winks.
 Gloria and Rebecca again embrace, as Bethany looks on from the bedroom window. Gloria hops into her car and Rebecca tells Gloria she will call her, after exchanging phone numbers. Rebecca lowers the thin curtain and is surprised to see Benjamin standing in the doorway, with a screwdriver in hand.
 'She knows about Rebecca,' Benjamin bluntly suspects.
 'What about Rebecca?' Bethany frowns.
 'That girl, she almost called your beloved step daughter, Alicia,' Benjamin claims.
 'I thought as much, Harry did say, that Gloria was a friend from Rebecca's teen years,' Bethany sighs. 'The poor girl is dying and it will become apparent that she will not be in the right state of mind.'
 'Who gives a shit, Rebecca will be the least of our worries, if Gloria blows her cover by accident,' Benjamin curses.
 'In case it slipped that cunning mind of yours son, I love Rebecca,' Bethany seethes. 'And if Gloria does start saying what I hope she doesn't, then we'll pass it off as the affects of her cancer.'
 'Do think that if Rebecca's true identity did ever get out, that she would have nothing to lose, by exposing your connections to the Cosmos.'
 'The only connection I had to that Organization, was my sister. But, no thanks to the now departed lover of Rebecca, Linda Perry, she informed my step daughter that I made an appearance at the secret hideaway at Wall Street and put me across as a high ranked conspirator of the society, when Carla allowed Vincent Simpson to let me in on the secrets of Carla's criminal project,' Bethany explains. 'And to answer your question, it has crossed my mind.'
 'It's been a week, Christopher is still classed as missing,' Benjamin points out.
 'Can you deal with it?' Bethany touches Benjamin's arms.
 'I love him,' Benjamin says.
 'Sorry you feel that way, I'm sorry you had to let go.'
 'Easy for you to say..........Did Benita........you know?'
 'You really don't know do you?'
 'Benita, has had a hold on me since I was in that institution,' Benjamin sobs. ' Every time I look in the mirror, I feel like she is watching me. And both you and Carla have used her to your advantage to control me. I believe you love me Mom, but Benita needs to hide for a while, because you never know, it could be curtains.'
 Bethany kisses Benjamin on the forehead.
 'Carla isn't here no more, and Benita has been careful. As long as you're identity is safe, then nothing else can go wrong.'
 'But, what if I lose control, like I have done, the last few months.'
 'Then I guess, Benita will have her killer instinct, not the loving kind you had.'

 Harry and Dominic share a coffee in the downstairs café, which is still closed. Dominic sits staring down at coffee mug, stroking the handle. Harry sits with his hands and arms firmly on the table, as the anxiety for Dominic becomes unbearable. Dominic stands up and walks down the aisle between seats, as Harry continues not to take eyes off him. Suddenly, Dominic belts the Coffee mug across the counters and it shatters. Harry remains calm, to allow Dominic to explode in anger. Dominic then takes his place on a stool and slowly gets his composure. Charlotte is declared missing, and unbeknown to Dominic, that his wife, was murdered by Bethany, who's husband is present with him.
 'I hope Deloris didn't hear that,' Dominic tries to relax. 'She let off steam like that earlier.
 'Dominic, it's understandable,' Harry assures.
 'But, why? Why, after all this time?' Dominic worries.
 'Does this have to do with James?' Harry queries.
 Dominic glances his eyes to his friend, knowing that it was Bethany that caused the death of his son, to help Dominic with insurance.
 'Since it happened, Charlotte blamed herself and ever since then, she's had these lapses of depression, anxiety, sleepwalking and mental breaks, now I fear it's worse,' Dominic panics.
 'Everyone in town is praying for you,' Harry comforts. 'F.B.P.D are pulling out all stops and the Mayor is shocked by the latest disappearance.'
 'You've all been kind,' Dominic appreciates.
 'I'll ask Bethany to stop by........' Harry begins to suggest.
 'No!!' Dominic snaps, catching Harry off guard. 'Sorry, maybe some other time. I may need to catch up on a few days sleep. I'll call her.....How's the missing case on Christopher going?'
 'No leads, Benjamin is in uproar about him and Emma is guilty,' Harry informs.
 'Can't say, I feel sorry for the big bad Bates,' Dominic shrugs. 'Or Emma, considering how they humiliated my daughter in the city.'
 'Well, if it's any consolation, Rebecca hates him as much as you do now.'
 'You know, I was thinking this morning, about the first trip Charlotte took to Hex-Ville, back in 1979,' Dominic begins.

Dominic starts telling Harry of the time Charlotte went and visited Dominic in Hex-Ville, twenty four years previous.
 'I didn't know, Charlotte came to see you,' Harry says. 'You kept that one quiet.'
 'Nobody was supposed to know, not even Mom and Dad,' Dominic replies.
 'And there's me thinking you met Charlotte after leaving Hex-Ville,' Harry states.
 'It wasn't serious at first,' Dominic claims. 'But, I knew we were meant to be. It helped by your ex mother in laws flowers.'


Saturday 10th February 1979, Hex-Ville, Upstate New York. It begins to snow. Dominic stands with flowers at the train platform, awaiting Charlotte Matthews to arrive. Her train arrives on time and when he sees her face to face, he gets butterflies in his stomach. Charlotte hurries over to him and gives him a big hug and a quick peck on the lips.
'Wow,' Dominic smiles. '
Those for me?' Charlotte points at the flowers Dominic had brought for her.
'Yes, he..her.....here you go,' Dominic nervously acknowledges.

 Charlotte smells her flowers, she is livened by the smell of beauty from them. She is overwhelmed that Dominic would go out all stops to impress her. 'You shouldn't have gone to all this expense,' Charlotte chuckles. 'Thank you.'
Dominic hesitates for a moment, before pretending he did pay for the flowers, when in fact Audrey let him have the flowers for free.
'How was your trip?' Dominic asks.
'Anxious,' Charlotte answers.
'To see me?' Dominic guesses. Charlotte flickers her eyelashes as he is drawn into her blue eyes. Dominic blushes as he tries not to tense.
'You know I've felt the same way,' Dominic said.
'I bet,' Charlotte grins. 'Would you like to go for a walk, get a bite to eat?' Dominic offers.
 'I am starving, you know I could eat like a pregnant woman right now,' Charlotte suggests.
'As long as you don't get stomach cramps later,' Dominic laughs. 'OK, then Cinderella your carriage awaits.'
'If you brought your car, we could just go to a drive in if that's OK?' Charlotte figures.
 'Oh, when I meant your carriage awaits, I was trying to make it sound.....you know?' Dominic awkwardly tries to explain.
'Oh, Dominic what are you like? I'll just hold onto your arm and the gorgeous flowers you bought for me.'
'That's a good idea, wouldn't want you taking a slide on the ice. Hey, wanna build a snowman?'

Hank finds it difficult to restart the car, with the sudden abrupt blizzard that has just arrived in town. Jeff offers Carla a cigarette and lights her up. Carla is a little pissed off, but Jeff manages to contain himself, as Hank hits the steering wheel in frustration. 'Did the Met Office warn us of this late bullshit?' Hank moans.
'Not that I know of,' Jeff sighs.
'You know if any cop pulls overs and offers a lending hand, I hope it's Kray,' Hank sighs.
'Nobody can prove this car as stolen, since we've refurbished it, like the others,' Jeff assures.
'It's f*****g freezing,' Hank curses. 'The heater has balls' d up, we're stuck in a blizzard, that a five year old could have predicted and you two are trying to suffocate me.'
'Well roll down the window then,' Carla points out. '
'Couldn't you just warm me up hot stuff?' Hank pleads.
'If I didn't know any better, I swear you've deliberately set up a breakdown prank, so you two can find an excuse to seduce me,' Carla accuses.
 'Hey, now wait a minute, I'm a man of principal, I don't take advantage of beautiful women smoking in the back of my car,' Hank lies.
'Me neither,' Jeff denies. 'Say, Harry and Tina are like two peas in a pod aren't they?' Carla changes the subject.
'OK Carla, you win, you have ruined the f*****g mood,' Hank snaps.
'I'm sorry that my brothers happy,' Jeff tells Hank.
'Really?'
'Well, not for Harry or myself, for you,' Jeff teases.
'You are such an asshole, Wilson,' Hank slates.
'You said it.'
Hank jumps out the car in anger and slams the door shut. He lifts the hood of the car to check a way to get them back on the road. Suddenly, Hank is disturbed by the Mason Twins, who laugh at his problem. Hank is not best pleased by their interference. Hank bumps his head on the hood, and both Carla and Jeff hear the commotion.
'Are you two for real?' Hank barks. 'You two need a spanking.'
'Is that a proposal, Hanky Panky?' Fallon attempts to get a rise.
'I've never hit a woman before, but I'm tempted,' Hank threats.
'Which one of us, would you like to bend over first?' Fallon gestures, as both herself and Felicity push Hank to the limit.
'I'll do better than that, I'll make sure both of you, get frost bite on your asses.'
'Does that mean your d**k is as cold as ice?' Felicity giggles in hysterics.
Jeff sits trying to control his laughter in the car, as Carla jumps out of the car and approaches the twins, who don't feel threatened by Carla's presence what so ever.
'Oh look the town whore greets us with her presence,' Fallon mouths. 'I guess the one consolation Hank, is that this tramp, gives you all the dirty tactics, now that Tina can't give you want you want.'
'If I'm the town whore, then you two must be Hex-Ville High's finest Twin-Cest orgy,' Carla counters.
'You are nothing Carla, you and your precious little sister, are in the same league,' Felicity sticks it. 'Goes for your alcoholic mother too.'
'Really? You know you two have beautiful eyes, shame they could be a darker colour, by the time I'm finished,' Carla grinds her teeth.
Fallon brazenly smirks and goes face to face with Carla. 'You're out of your league Carla. These two tough guys maybe in your comfort zone, but a real man would never look at you, like Harry.'
'At least Harry found a real woman, not defected samples like you two,' Carla insults.
Without warning, Fallon slaps Carla across the face. Hank goes to defend her and Jeff exits the car. Carla stops Hank in his tracks. 'It's OK, I'll deal with this,' Carla insists.
'Go ahead, do your worst,' Fallon awaits retaliation.
What happens next was not predicted. Carla grabs Fallon's face and plants a passionate kiss on her lips, which leaves Jeff and Hank stunned and Felicity horrified. After Carla is finished, she retreats to the car. Fallon stands shocked on the spot, trying to figure out what just occurred. Hank manages to get the car started and pulls away with Jeff and Carla on board and Carla giving the twin sisters the middle finger.

 Harry and Tina are out throwing snowballs at each other and having a lot of fun. They fall on the cold floor together in each others arms and kiss passionately.
'So, what are you going to do when you graduate?' Tina asks. '
I wanna be an architect,' Harry informs. 'But College funds is gonna be a problem.' '
If you want help with money, I can always....' Tina offers.
'Out of the question, your father reluctant acceptance, of me as your boyfriend is good enough. I don't want to take advantage,' Harry refuses. 'Anyway, how about you?'
 'I wanna be a singer/Dancer, maybe star on the neon lights of Broadway some day,' After exchanging conversation about their possible future, the two take a stroll through the park, where they spot a familiar face, who has been missing for weeks. Rosaline Mack is safe and sound, but ignores Harry and Tina who call out to her, as she hurries away, now wearing a necklace with the letter 'G' engraved in it.
Harry and Tina quickly alert Albert Kray, who is on Patrol, on the recent return of Rosaline Mack, who had been missing for several weeks. Albert drives to Rosaline's parents address and find that she is safe and sound and the Macks inform Kray, that Rosaline refuses to tell them anything about her time away and that it is all over. Albert begs to differ and states he will investigate the matter. Harry and Tina wait outside, until Albert reappears.
'Thank you Harry, Tina,' Kray appreciates. 'But, now it looks like we're not looking at a missing persons case.'
'Did Rosaline tell you where she's been?' Harry asks.
 'She hasn't even told her parents, but this is not the end of the matter,' Albert insists.
 'At least she is safe and sound,' Tina sighs.
 'Thank fully, yes,' Kray agrees. 'Anyway it's best nobody interacts with her for a while, until we get this charade straightened out.'
 'Sure thing Albert,' Harry nods.
 'Do you kids need a lift home? It's the least I can do. And this Blizzard doesn't seem to wanna hold up,' Kray offers.
 'Just back to the car if that's OK?'
 'Sure, oh and another thing, I'd like if you'd keep this re-occurrence between us,' Kray suggests. 'That's not if anybody else has seen her since her return. I don't want her or her parents to feel intimidated by the press or friends. Hex-Ville is just a small suburban town and people talk.'
 Albert gives Harry and Tina a ride to Harry's car in his police car. As the patrol car drives away, the middle aged man who was in Bucks diner, overhearing exchanges between Jon and Albert, is seen watching from afar. The middle aged man is then seen walking to a call box and dials an unknown.
 'Macks re-occurrence has quickly been observed and Kray has been informed......Yes, I will keep an eye on the cop and Wilson as you stated.....unfortunately Sir, Ms Tina Wilson and her lover witnessed the whole thing. I'll be in touch.'
 The man hangs up and heads off into the cold afternoon.

 Kray visits the hidden lock up where stolen cars are being reformed, to be sold as brand new. He finds Jeff and Hank have returned with Carla. 'Stuck In The Middle With You,' by Stealers Wheel is playing on the radio. Kray is pissed off something silly, that they've aloud to let Carla be witness to their hideaway. Kray is now worried that so many people with discover their criminal activity and word will get out. Hank tells Kray that Carla has known for a while and she promises she won't tell a sole.
 'Too right, she'd better not,' Kray points at a number plate removed and he picks it up.
 'What is it?' Jeff wonders.
 'Do you know, who's number plate this is?'
 'I hope it's one of the other gangs we hate,' Hanks grins.
 'Oh, worse, this is Anton Crocetti's number plate,' Kray warns.
 'YYYou mmmmeaaaa.......
 'Yes, Anton Crocetti, son of Mafia Boss, Romano Crocetti. How you managed to steal this undetected is beyond me. At least I hope you weren't detected. I'm once in a while on their f*****g payroll. If they find out, my shit for brains employees has made it look like I've shit on them, God help us,' Kray explains.
 'I think maybe you should take the car back,' Carla suggests.
 'Oh, for f*** sake Carla, don't say that,' Jeff gasps.
 'Or maybe, you got your brains f****d out too much by these two assholes, you probably have forgotten, that if they attempts such a dumbass stunt like this again, they might wanna become Bruce Lee professions in less than a twelve hour period,' Kray sarcastically barks.
 'What do you want us to do?' Hank queries.
 'Try using your f*****g brains in future and get this stupid bitch outta here
, and keep her out. Your sister may be painted as a dork by some folk, but you are something else Carla Morrison. You're only good at spreading your legs, yet not very tactically minded, just like these two at the moment. So I suggest you keep your nose out, OK?'
 'That's a bit harsh Albert don't you think,' Jeff interrupts.
 'Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that I was meant to be suicidal.'
 'C'mon Carla, better get you home,' Hank says.
 Jeff is about to leave with them, when Albert tugs on Jeff's arm telling him to stay. Hank and Carla hurry on, not before Carla gives Albert the middle finger. Albert brushes this off by laughing at himself. Kray takes the conversation into the outer office, so that Jeff and his conversation is more safer.
 'Was is it?' Jeff frowns.
 'I'm relieving you of your duties, I want you to stay out of the radar,' Kray states.
 'What?' Jeff answers in shock. 'Why?'
 'You know, this recent happening has made it even easier, but better for you, because I kept my promise to Otto, after what I learnt recently,' Kray continues.
 'Go on.'
 'You can't tell a sole until it's been made official, not Harry, not Hank, Carla, your Cat, not even your Gold Fish and not even your mother.'
 'Yeah?'
 'You're not gonna believe this, our dear old mayor is retiring soon and guess who's up for election?'
 'Wh.......me?'
 It takes a while for Albert Kray to respond to Jeff's guess. It's replied with mighty laughter. Kray stands and staggers around the room in hysterics. His laughter is almost brought to tears. Now, Jeff feels humiliated and embarrassed by his idea. It takes a moment for Albert to get himself together.
 'Are you out of your mind, hell they wouldn't let you run a checkout at the drug store,' Kray replies. 'Your father you idiot. Yeah, it's true Jeff, your Daddy has even better things to come. I gladly took Coles advice, because your Daddy's a good friend of mine. Just think you could have a better future for yourself and maybe just maybe, in about a decade or so, your father could be running for President of our great nation. Question is, will you take my advise?'
 'My father for mayor.....from Labourer to Politian? Who would have thought? When will the running start?
 'Sometime, this year.'
 'What are you getting out of this?'

 'Nothing absolutely,' Kray promises. 'You have my word. Your name will be exempt from any connections to recent criminal goings on within this fold and I will personally see to it, Hank keeps his mouth shut and you protected from the Mafia. Get yourself a future, Jeff.'
 Kray holds his hand out and Jeff shakes it in agreement. But how long will Jeff remain in the good books?

 

Dominic and Charlotte build a snowman in the park. Dominic hasn't felt this much happiness in a long time. It looks as if, he has found his future soul mate. He can't believe Charlotte had gone out of her way to visit him, considering he made a fool of himself in Manhattan a few weeks earlier. Dominic stuffs a carrot into the snowman's face to make a nose. He seems pretty satisfied with the job they've done to build it.
'Say, you're natural, Charlotte,' Dominic says. 'Very artistic.'
 'With a little help from my....my.....friend,' Charlotte stutters, trying to not admit her true intended feelings just yet.
 'You've been great Charlotte, today has meant so much to me,' Dominic replies.
 'Where do your parents think you are?' Charlotte queries.
 'Just hanging out I guess,' Dominic shrugs.
 'Can I ask you something?'
 'Sure.'
 'What do you think of me Dominic?'
 'You are the best thing that has happened to me in a long time......Oh OK I'll cut the bullshit, I think I love you,' Dominic confesses.
 'What you are really trying to say is, is that you do love me,' Charlotte corrects him.
 'I've tried not to be so nervous today
, but now you have literately put me on the spot,' Dominic shivers.
 
'You didn't just buy me those flowers, because it was the only way to appreciate me being here?'
 'Question, how do you feel?'
 'I thought we were friends, don't spoil it.'
 'Oh.'
 'You idiot,' Charlotte teases touching Dominic's face. 'I love you too.'
 Dominic heart skips a beat, as Charlotte places a prolonged passionate kiss on Dominic's lips. After she pulls back, his eyes remain shut, feel the love he had begged from Bethany for so long. But, now it appears Bethany is his past and his true love is right in front of him. He opens his eyes and look directly into Charlotte's starry blue eyes and feels like he is in heaven.

 'Wow,' Dominic gasps.
 'Now, is there anything else, before we head back?' Charlotte asks.
 'Back where?' Dominic frowns.
 'To my Motel Room, now before you start getting any idea's, we'll take things slow.'
 Charlotte takes Dominic's hand, as she picks up her flowers and they start to walk, through the park.
 'Actually there is something. I didn't buy those flowers. I had them given to me for free, buy the lady in the store. She insisted,' Dominic explains.
 'And I gave you a kiss for free and I thought I was worth every penny.'
 'There will be years of you being just that.'

 The Wilsons, Harry returns home with Tina and sees Jeff is home with his hand in his head. Jeff had recently discovered, that Jon is going to be shortlisted for the Mayor election and has been told to stay out of criminal activities, by Albert Kray. Harry heads into the living room.
 'Unlike you, to be home this early, or at home at all,' Harry notices.
 'Well, first time for everything,' Jeff whispers. 'Hello, Tina.'
 'Jeff,' Tina acknowledges.
 'What's the matter?' Harry wonders.
 'Lots of shit, but I can deal with it,' Jeff insists.
 'Do you wanna talk about it?'
 'I think you have better priorities right now, than mine, so you two run along now.'
 'OK, uh, is Mom still at work?'
 'Possibly.'
 'Dad?'
 'Possibly taking up a new occupation, who knows.
'
 
'You know, you should do the same.'
 'Thanks for the tip little brother, run along now.'
 'We'll be upstairs,' Harry informs.
 'I figured,' Jeff sarcastically answers.
 Harry takes Tina's hand and they run upstairs.

21:00 p.m.  Billy Mcquire waits near a forest in his car, a mile north west of Hex-Ville and he meets with the man, who had been taking pictures of Jon Wilson and of Albert Kray.
 'Mr Mcquire?'
 'Mr Johnson, thanks for the return. Do you have my usual updates?'
 'Of course, here's the pictures.'
 Adam Johnson, father of Oswald Johnson, hands Billy the envelope and Billy hands over a $1000 in cash. Billy takes a look at the pictures, and sees Albert's criminal activities with Jeff and Hank, a snapshot also catches Hank driving Carla away. In another picture, captures Kray with Harry and Tina, where Rosaline Mack had returned home.
 'I heard the conversation, Rosaline Mack is home.'
 'And Jonathan Wilson completely oblivious?'
 'Have no idea, but I do know one thing, I heard Wilson and Kray in conversation earlier, in the diner, Wilson is shortlisted for the mayor election,' Adam tells him.
 'For now, as long as I know the ins and outs of his co-operations with my friend Barry and his interactions with Kray,' Billy said. 'It will be the perfect set up. Kray, Cole and Wilson, they won't know what hit them, especially Wilson.'
 'This project 'Gemini,' Morrison sure has giving you the time of day, considering you d**ked his wife years ago and got her knocked up,' Adam adds. 'Is that another matter?'
 'Of course.'
 'By the way, one of the cars, that Wilson and Willis stole, you maybe interested in taking a look.'
 Billy smirks when he realizes, they stole Romano Crocetti's car, a Mafia bosses son. It makes his plan even more advanced.
 'The perfect set up,' Billy grins.

 'Forgive me for pointing this out, but your intensions are to also eventually break Harry and Tina up.'
 'Tina deserves better, than to be involved in a criminal family.'
 'What about Otto Cole?' Adam reminds Billy. 'Both he and Kray know of your work with Project Gemini somehow. We have to get even with him.'
 'I'll take care of him, he's the go between lawyer after all, my rival. And as for 'Gemini,' well I never liked him anyway.'
 'You're gonna take out the project aren't you?'
 'It will be my Masterpiece.'

 Otto Cole is seen making love to Audrey in the flower store.

 

Dominic is invited into Charlottes Motel room and she makes them a coffee, to warm them up. It starts to get dusk, yet Charlotte insists he stay a bit longer. A bit longer soon turns into love making.
Next morning, Dominic wakes up in Charlottes arms and he soon realizes he will feel the wrath of his parents. But, it's doesn't hinder the way he feels about Charlotte, he's in love.

 Harry pulls his curtains back and finds the winter sun high in the blue sky, melting the snow and freeing ice. Jeff asks Jon, if he can come work for him at the Construction.
 'Alright what have you done?' Jon suspects.
 'Just want a clean break, I want to prove that I'm the son you could be proud of,' Jeff claims.
 'I don't want to doubt your intensions son, but this is Jeff I'm talking to?' Jon asks.
 'Lets just say, this is a new me,' Jeff replies.
 Mary is happy to hear Jeff wants to work alongside his father, but Harry suspects Jeff is up to something.

 Tina notices her mother, Audrey, isn't feeling at all well, but Audrey passes it off as stomach cramps. Audrey suggests the whole family spend the day together, but Billy dampens the mood, that he's too busy and has a meeting.

 Dominic walks Charlotte to the station and they passionately kiss each other goodbye and promise one another, they will see each other soon.
 'I love you Charlotte,' Dominic declares.
 'You mean that don't you?' Charlotte smiles, with water filling in her eyes.
 'More than you'll ever know,' Dominic states.
 'I call you when I get back home,' Charlotte informs.
 After an emotional farewell, Charlotte begins her journey back south to Manhattan, while Dominic now has to face his parents.
 Dominic returns home to find Albert Kray in the living room with his parents, who had put out a missing persons report. How does he explain this one away?

 Billy heads to a mansion thirty miles southwest of Hex-Ville. He is invited in by a servant, where some heavies Guard a large enclosed room, with minimal lighting, where he is greeted by Mafia Boss, Garcia Crocetti.
 'William Mcquire, never thought I'd see you in my home again,' Garcia greets.
 'Godfather Crocetti, it's honour that you've accepted me stopping by, but I think this is as much business as it is a social call,' Billy adds.
 'Then, I have all day, drink?' Garcia offers.

  Whilst Tina and Greg are distracted, Audrey makes a call to the local hospital.
 'Hello, I'd like to make an appointment right away, actually it's a procedure I want........I want an abortion.......my name is Audrey Mcquire.'

 Otto tells Albert that he loves Audrey very much and that he intends to get it all out in the open, but Albert advises against it. Hank interrupts the conversation and Albert explains that Jeff has left because he wants to live an honest life.

 Bethany encourages her mother, Marilyn to seek help in her drink problem. Carla insists, she is past getting help and live with it.

 Dominic gets a lecture off his parents and is warned never to see Charlotte again, but Dominic argues he's in love and that they should stop treating like a child. Charlotte calls the house and Dominic's father answers and calls her all the names under the sun and this devastates both Dominic as well as Charlotte. Dominic is not going to leave it there.

 

 

 Wednesday 22nd January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Dominic looks out to sea from the beach, south of Francis Bay, with fond memories of Charlotte constantly on his mind. He hates himself so much, for thinking he's drove Charlotte over the edge, with the truth on the death of their son, which occurred eight years ago. Part of him suspects that Bethany could be behind, Charlottes disappearance, but he has to think of Deloris, who is oblivious to the dark past that stalks him. Dominic kicks the sand, while he tries put an outlook on the Kings future. Although, Charlotte knows the truth of his bad past, he will never wish any harm to her. Now this has happened, he would rather go to jail, than living through knowing a terrible fate involving the love of his life. For now, Dominic has to put on a front for his daughter, apart from a brave one, as long as Bethany keeps her distance.

 The Wilsons invite Gloria Lang around for dinner and she meets Emma for the first time. Gloria brings round a glass of champagne as a kind gesture, for inviting her for dinner. Harry tells Bethany that he invited Dominic and Deloris around, but they want to be alone for the time being, to grieve for Charlottes safe return. The rest of the Wilsons still have their concerns for missing Christopher, who has somewhat vanished off the face of the Earth. Emma heads upstairs to freshen up before dinner and Rebecca follows on after her.
 'What is it?' Rebecca queries.
 'I can't let this go, Christopher has been missing over a week,' Emma reminds Rebecca.
 'He's probably lying low somewhere,' Rebecca assures.
 'Lying low, in a ditch somewhere?' Emma snaps.
 'Do you suspect this Eric Lance, has something to do with his disappearance?' Rebecca guesses.
 'Lane is dangerous, he has history,' Emma explains.
 'Maybe, we should just get it all out in the open and tell Dad about it,' Rebecca suggests.
 'No,' Emma blurts.
 Rebecca frowns.
 'What I mean is, it's much more complicated than that,' Emma whispers.
 'Meaning?'
 Suddenly, Bethany enters, before Rebecca can put Emma in a more awkward position.
 'Dinners ready, and our guest is in waiting.'

 

The dinner appears to be going well, and Rebecca hopes Gloria doesn't drop any clangers, such as mentioning anything connected to her true identity and true past. Harry tells Gloria that she is brave and that he likes her willpower in her fight against her terminal illness.
 'My willpower has been encouraged by meeting up with Alicia again,' Gloria accidently says.
 Rebecca freezes for a moment and looks at Bethany, as Bethany is the only person still alive, who knows of Rebecca real identity, aside from Dominic, who discovered the truth in the    previous episode. But, he has more pressing issues in wondering where his tragic wife is. Emma figures that Gloria has got names mixed up, as her condition is starting to make her confused.
 'Um, Gloria, sweetheart, it's Rebecca,' Emma corrects Gloria.
 'Oh of Course, I just wasn't sure,' Gloria smiles.
 Rebecca is reluctant to smile back at first, knowing her future could be at stake, if Gloria accidently reveals more.
 'So how did you and Rebecca meet?' Harry queries.
 'Who's Rebecca?' Gloria asks.
 'Me,' Rebecca adds.
 'I thought that was your foster sister,' Gloria frowns.
 'You must be confusing me, with somebody else, Gloria,' Rebecca calmly replies. 'Would you like a cup of coffee?'
 'I haven't finished my main course yet thank you, later thank you,' Gloria appreciates.
 Rebecca holds her nerve, as Bethany eyes the situation from her seat. Rebecca doesn't want Harry, whom she sees as her father, to hear more, that could possibly put negative thoughts about her into his head.
 'Anyway, we met in Florida, she dated a guy called Rick,' Gloria informs. 'I don't know what you saw in that guy Beck's, you did the right thing and turn to women.'
 'You Homosexual too?' Rebecca sarcastically remarks.
 'Rebecca, that's not a very nice thing to gesture to our guest and a friend of yours,' Bethany interrupts.
 'Yes, I'm sorry Gloria, it's just I'm finding it difficult knowing, that you're here and then you won't be,' Rebecca states. 'My Aunt she died several weeks ago and it's angered me, that we were together barely a week, when she got taken away. I resented her presence. Believe me I sympathize with you, but it's too much to bare facing tragedy all in a short period of time, especially four.'
 'You don't have to apologize, and no I never slept with any women, but I guess, the experiment is a little too late for comfort,' Gloria winks.
 'Thank you,' Rebecca whispers.

 After dessert and coffee, and conversation, Gloria goes to freshen up and when she is about to leave the bathroom, Rebecca calls her into her room, whilst Emma is distracted downstairs. Rebecca is feeling high anxiety over Gloria's clumsiness in speaking of details of their teenage years.
 'Please don't do that again, Gloria, I love my Daddy,' Rebecca worries.
 'I know, I'm so sorry, but in case you've forgotten my brain is slowly deteriorating,' Gloria cries. 'I'm a dying women, with not many clever brain cells left.'
 'It's OK, it's OK,' Rebecca assures hugging her once best friend. 'It's not your fault, it's mine. I underestimated my own guard, meaning myself.'
 'I wish my Daddy loved me, like Harry loves you,' Gloria tearfully speaks. 'At least I'll have you to enjoy my remaining days with.'
 'Are you sure you're alright to drive home?' Rebecca realizes. 'Because with what's happening, I don't think it's safe for you to be behind the wheel.'
 'I'm fine, I'm not that too close on falling off my Perch, just yet, never mind dropping at the wheel.'
 'Really, I'll pay for a cab.'
 'Becky, I'm fine.'

 After thanking the Wilsons for their hospitality, Gloria begins her short journey home. Half way home, Gloria almost collides with another vehicle and she slams the breaks on and grabs her breath. In her bag, Gloria takes a photo, which she took from Rebecca's room. It's a photo of Rebecca and Harry outside the house, just taken hours after they first moved to the Bay, six months earlier. Gloria then feels severe pain in her temple and her ears buzz. Gloria grabs her medication as she calm herself.

 Bethany encourages Rebecca to relax.
 'It could have all come out tonight, and that would have been that,' Rebecca sighs.
 'Relax,' Bethany insists. 'Harry and Emma are aware of her illness, they passed it off as confusion.'
 'Oh, that makes it alright does it?' Rebecca frantically snaps in a low tone. 'That is a horrible thing to gesture. I don't wish that on poor Gloria. What if was your secrets on the line? I bet you'd conjure up some evil scheme to rectify the situation, like I had my suspicions on Linda's death.'
 'The police shot her and she fell in the estuary, her body was found on the beach the next morning and in case you forgot, she was a man/woman eating psychopath,' Bethany lies.
 'Yeah right, you feared her.'
 'She tried to kill us all,' Bethany reminds her.
 'You were scared, she would reveal your connection to that corrupt organization, not because you afraid of losing me,' Rebecca explains.
 'Just remember I've kept your secret safe, I've protected you and this is the thanks I get,' Bethany moans.
 'Everything you do, is for you. And I do care about Gloria, I don't want her to die, just like I didn't want my mother to die,' Rebecca informs.
 'What about Christopher?'
 'What about him?' Rebecca questions.
 'I mean he doesn't really love Benjamin, he still loves his wife, that you're screwing,' Bethany attempts to hurt. 'What if Emma feels the same way.'
 'Why are you doing this?' Rebecca gasps.
 'If suddenly, he miraculously walked through that door now and whisked her away to paradise, would that hurt more, than losing Linda Perry?'
 'What are you implying?'
 'You know what I think. You may have had a one night stand with Emma a year ago, but concealing the bodies butchered by the woman, who you claimed you loved a few months later, was the act of true love. Since she died, you've somehow and somewhat grabbed your consolation prize back.....I believe you love Emma, but you're not in love. Your true love, you can never have again.....I'll see you in the morning. Night my love. If this relationship doesn't work out, I'm still here.
 Bethany kisses Rebecca on the lips and heads upstairs.

 Rebecca heads to bed, where Emma puts her arm around her.
 'I love you,' Emma whispers.
 'I love you too,' answers, at first hesitating.

 

 Thursday 23rd January 2003, Kings Café, Long Island. Dominic assures Deloris things will get better and hold onto hope that Charlotte is still alive and well somewhere. Little do they realize the tragic fate she suffered at the hands of the Francis Bay murderer, who's accomplice was that of Bethany.

New York Precinct, Manhattan. Hugo and Beagle hit a dead end on the investigation involving Abraham's accident and the whereabouts of Eric Lance, as they found nothing of suspicion at the New York Times, where Elaina works. Hugo agrees that Elaina is being evasive, even though she is concerned for her husbands well being. Beagle decides it's time to get dirty and take a risk, and have phones tapped.

 Elaina promises Andy, that his father will get better and no matter what happens, Elaina will protect him.

 Wilson Residence, Francis Bay. Rebecca finds Bethany home for lunch, and is still reeling from Bethany's harsh words the previous evening, based on her feelings for Emma. Rebecca grabs a coffee and sits opposite her brazen step mother. Bethany senses that Rebecca is wound up about it, as Rebecca sits too close in Bethany's space.
 'You're looking at me very meaningfully, what's the matter?' Bethany asks.
 'You damn well, what's the matter,' Rebecca growls.
 'Sorry, but there have been a lot of issues we have dealt with, so you need to be more specific,' Bethany replies, making it awkward.
 'How dare you suggest, that I'm not in love with Emma,' Rebecca snaps.
 'Then why protect a murderer?' Bethany adds. 'You can't keep changing your mind Beth, you either love one or the other.'
 'Emma was always the first,' Rebecca tries to explain.
 'But, Linda was your true love, whether or not she enjoyed cannibalism,' Bethany sarcastically said.
 'Do you know what true love is Beth?' Rebecca sighs.
 'If I didn't I wouldn't have married Harry,' Bethany suggests.
 'The thing is Beth, I think it's a different matter from Daddy's point of view,' Rebecca begins. 'He told Joe Hayes of all people, a total stranger, about his personal feelings. You remember him, the guy who held you hostage a week ago, before he died? He almost ran us off the road and Daddy for some reason decided to open up about his true love.'
 Bethany then realizes, that Rebecca knows the truth, that Harry will always love Tina, more than he could ever love Bethany. Bethany still has the cassette under the bed, revealing Harry's admission and the confession replays over and over again in her mind and she is livid.
 'Do you what he said?' Rebecca smugly winds up.
 'I don't wanna f*****g know,' Bethany groans.
 'Why, because you already know?' Rebecca smirks. 'Where does that leave you then Beth? Are you going to cling onto a lie, that you desperately want to rectify itself in the blink of an eye, because you think you can compete with a dead woman?'
 'You think you have me sussed don't you, well I'll you something, if you think you can destroy me by playing mind games, then two can play that game,' Bethany threats.
 'Then I guess we're all square for now,' Rebecca figures.
 Bethany picks up her coffee and looks out to the estuary.
 'My offer still stands, my bed is still warm if Emma's gets cold,' Bethany teases.
 Rebecca momentarily looks back with a stern look, before exiting the kitchen. Bethany thumps the table in frustration after discovering, Rebecca already knows Harry's true feelings.

 A boutique store, 7 miles south of Francis Bay, a girl in her mid-twenties discovers spots a small red flicker coming from a small hole in the upper wall of a dressing room. She quickly informs the manager and what he discovers, is that a member of staff, has been spying on females undressing and dressing. The manager decides to hand it over to the police and he fears this may have been going on for some time.

 Harry is half hour from finish his round and decides to go on one last patrol. He looks at the missing poster of Christopher one more time, before jumping into the police car. As he is about to pull away, a blue car speeds past him, at around sixty five miles per hour. Harry is having none of it and gives chase. The driver who's face is not shown sees that Harry is giving chase, as his sirens are heard even from over sixty feet away. The driver accelerates even faster, as Harry tries to keep up. A van pulls out in front of Harry and he manages to swerve to avoid impact.
 'Shit!' Harry curses, almost having an accident.
 Harry continues in the pursuit. After a few minutes, it's seems all hope of capture is lost, when suddenly he spots the blue car, parked at an angle by the side of an intersection. He gradually lowers his speed and when he reaches thirty miles an hour, the culprit escapee shoots out the patrol car tyre and it spirals out of control and overturns injuring Harry, thus putting him unconscious. The assailant approaches Harry's patrol car on the deserted highway and checks to make sure he's alive. Barely he is and the person, who was behind it, is none other than Gloria Lang.

 Thursday 23rd January 2003, Outskirts Of Francis Bay, Long Island. Bethany, Rebecca and Emma are at the crime scene, along with police, where Harry's patrol car had been sabotaged and crashed. Harry is nowhere to be found and neither is Gloria Lang's car. The last few months haven't been too kind on the Wilsons since they moved to Long Island, especially for Rebecca. Bethany on the other hand, has possibly been the cause of the problems, which have been kept well hidden from missing Harry. Emma has recently had to deal with her estranged husband, Christopher, being missing himself. It's close to 8:30 P.M, and the road is closed off and Hendricks of Francis Bay Police Department fill the family in on the details. Rebecca is too anxious, losing Harry, would be like losing Clara all over again, who was murdered weeks earlier.
 'So?' Rebecca blurts. 'Anything?'
 'I'm sorry Rebecca, we're doing the best we can,' Hendricks informs. 'My colleagues have scoured the area, no sign of your father. We've had helicopters all over the area, but it is dark now and it will be much harder now to find him, with such minimal lighting. ' Hendricks turns to a relatively calm and collective Bethany. 'Apologies for an anxious time Bethany, I hope Harry is OK.'
 'He is, I know it,' Bethany confidently acknowledges. 'I know you guys are doing a great job, thank you.'
 'Do you think that he could have been kidnapped?' Emma wonders.
 'It's difficult to tell, as there were no witnesses,' Hendricks states.
 'No witnesses, this is preposterous,' Rebecca groans.
 'It's frustrating I know honey,' Emma tries to calm. 'But we must stay positive.'
 'Who would wanna do this?' Rebecca seethes.
 'We'll keep you updated,' Hendricks assures. 'Officer Durham will take you home now.'
 'Thank you, Hendricks....oh Hendricks, I was sorry to hear about your partner Ted,' Bethany says, after she had witnessed Ted Sumner's death in her home, a week or so earlier.
 'That's kind of you, I hope you'll be ale to attend his funeral, even though we have some sort of situation involving your husband right now,' Hendricks answers.
 'We all come together in times like this, it helps.'
 'We'll find Harry, Bethany,' Hendricks promises.
 After Hendricks heads back behind the police barrier, the family are escorted to Officer Durham police cruiser. Rebecca looks on back, as forensics check over Harry's destroyed police car. Emma holds tightly onto Rebecca's hand. Bethany grabs a hold of Rebecca's hand as a way of comfort, but then Rebecca pulls away, considering the words Bethany though at her earlier that day. Bethany feels dejected by Rebecca's brush off and quickly glances back to Harry's patrol car, through all the flashing blue lights. Emma jumps into the back of Durham's cruiser first. A teenager in his car, parked up in layby, with his pals, who watch the whole investigation, starts to throw abuse. The teen starts to sing 'Another One Bites The Dust,' by Queen.
 
'Another one bites the dust, another one bites the dust, and another gone and another gone, another one bites the dust, eh eh eh, and another one bites the dust,'
 Rebecca is horrified by the abuse, that the crook is hurling and brushed past Bethany and marches straight over to the teens car for a heated confrontation. The teen is caught off guard, when Rebecca blocks the numerous police flashing lights from the teens views.
 'Hey asshole, why don't you say that a little closer to my f*****g face?' Rebecca snaps.
 'What are you talking about?' the thug frowns, as his pals mellow in the backseat.
 'Really, because I got the instinct impression, that you thought this whole scenario was funny,' Rebecca fumes.
 Bethany slowly manoeuvres towards Bethany, and Durham takes note.
 'I don't know what you mean,' the teen denies.
 'Get out of the f*****g car!' Rebecca demands.
 'What if I don't?'
 Without hesitation, Rebecca yanks open the drivers door and grabs the teen out by the scruff and pins him against the car.
 'I wasn't doing anything I swear, I was just singing,' the teen panics.
 'What were you singing?!' Rebecca furiously rages.
 'Nothing.'
 'Do you think I'm stupid?'
 'No.'
 'Do I look stupid?'
 'No.'
 Officer Durham, along with other officers intervene the heated confrontation and the teen attempts to pin the blame on Rebecca, pretending that she attacked him for no particular reason. Durham along with Bethany pull Rebecca away from him and Emma also rushes over to calm her girlfriend.
 Durham takes out his handcuffs and puts them on the teen, who is shocked by what Durham is doing.
 'What are you doing?' the teen gasps.
 'Your under arrest,' Durham voices.
 'I haven't done anything.'
 'Yes you have. You've used abusive words, that have caused alarm and distress, which is a public order offense. You have the right to remain silent, if you give up the right to remain silent anything can and will be used against you in a court of law, you have the right to an attorney, if you can't afford one, we'll have one brought to you,' Durham explains, handing the suspect over to the other officers.
 Durham faces Rebecca, who is being calmed down by Bethany and Emma. Rebecca feels stupid for her actions, but with everything in a mess, it was the only way she could let off some steam.
 'I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me,' Rebecca tries to relax.
 'If I was in your shoes I would have done the same thing to that ass wipe,' Durham chuckles. 'Just try not to do it too often. Cmon, let's get you all home.'
 'Be best if you take some tranquilizers tonight, otherwise you'll been driving yourself to a heart attack ,' Emma suggests.
 'Sure,' Rebecca agrees.
 The two teen passengers watch on, as their buddy is put into a police car. They now have no lift.
 'So, now what do we do?' One of them moans.
 'Walk lazy ass,' Bethany sarcastically smirks.
 Bethany gets into the police car and is driven home with Rebecca and Emma.

In Gloria Lang's unknown address, Harry lies unconscious in a bed with his arm and leg broken, in a room, whilst his one hand is handcuffed to the bed rail.

 

 

 Friday 24th January 2003, Gloria Lang's Home. Harry awakes with his arm in a cast and his broken leg in plaster. He has also suffered a few cuts and bruise to his face and upper Torso. His arm is handcuffed to a bed. The early morning light, is blurry to his opening eyesight and his head spinning all over the place from the trauma he suffered on impact, in the deliberate crash, caused by Gloria, whom is stood in front of the bed, smiling at Harry, whose eyesight becomes more clear. Harry stares at Gloria in confusion, as she slowly manoeuvres herself by his bedside. Harry is that confused, he finds it hard to find any words, as to why he is in a bedroom with a strange woman. Strange woman? He had met Gloria a few nights earlier, as Gloria is a former associate of Rebecca, his supposedly long lost daughter, who he met the day Tina had supposedly died on September 11th 2001. Gloria shines a mini torch light in Harry's eye's and he does not show any signs to act upon this, except make a small yelp. Gloria strokes his head.
 'Relax,' Gloria insists. 'You've had a bump to the head, you don't want to exert yourself.'
 Harry looks up to where his hand is handcuffed to the bed. He frowns and then stares back to Gloria, who walks to a cabinet. She takes out some pain killers and brings a glass of water to the injured officer.
 'Here, take two of these, it will ease your pain,' Gloria says.
 Gloria leans Harry's head forward and places the two capsules in his mouth and then helps him drink them down with water. Gloria seems calm in herself and doesn't seem nervous. Harry tries to contain himself. He is not so much shocked, but more weary that something isn't right about the situation he's gotten himself into, or possibly what Gloria has gotten him into. Gloria pulls up a chair beside him.
 'You look confused,' Gloria notices.
 'You can say that again,' Harry whispers, as he voice wails.
 'Are you wondering, why you're here?' Gloria asks.
 'And the rest,' Harry answers.
 'Well, before, we continue on, I should make note, that you have a broken arm and you have a fractured tibia in your right leg. I'm sure it will heal in time,' Gloria explains.
 'What's with the handcuffs?' Harry wonders.
 'It's not that I don't trust you, I want you to listen, because there are a few home truths, you should hear,' Gloria continues. 'Believe me, it's gonna hurt.'
 'Home truths?' Harry raises his eyebrow. 'Who are you?'
 'I'm Gloria, I your so called daughters friend from Florida, you invited me to dinner the other ni.....you don't know who I am?'
 'No I don't, truth is, I don't know who I am,' Harry states.
 'Then it's made my task even better,' Gloria smirks.

Wilson Residence, Francis Bay, Long Island. Rebecca sits on the sofa staring at the wall, having to deal with the abrupt disappearance of her father, Harry. Unaware that he's been kidnapped, all the Wilsons can do is wait for enforcement updates. This may yet lead to an FBI investigation if the local department find it hard to locate Harry. The last year and a half, Rebecca has masqueraded as Harry's daughter, when really she had taken the identity of Harry and Tina's real daughter, whom is also believed dead. Rebecca is not an all out evil person, she sees Harry as her father, and adores and loves him. Although, her deepest regret, is not telling her biological mother, Clara, how she truly felt, before she died in her arms. Rebecca fears that if Harry meets a similar fate, then what has Rebecca to lose, especially if Emma discovers any truth in her link to the deceased Linda Perry. Also Bethany knows Rebecca inside out and Bethany is Harry's Satanist wife, who only does thinks for herself and that includes take lives to keep her secrets buried. Bethany makes her way downstairs and sits beside her step daughter. It's pretty tense between the two and Bethany tries to reach out to Rebecca, but Rebecca feels she doesn't want any comfort from Bethany.
 'I'm sorry for what I said before, it was out of line,' Bethany attempts to apologize.
 'You've gone out of line, a lot haven't you?' Rebecca cries.
 'I'd hate to happen to your father, like what happened to your mother,' Bethany tells Rebecca.
 'That makes you tell any truth that comes out of that mouth of yours?'
 'I love him and I love you.'
 'So, is this the part where you try to have sex with me?' Rebecca sarcastically replies.
 'You can't go through this alone Becky, we have to unite as a family,' Bethany encourages.
 'I have Emma, Beth, she's all the comfort I need right now,' Rebecca adds.
 'Is it that easy for you to hate me? I've protected you and your secret.'
 
'But, you have been manipulating that trust, because you know I know some of your secrets,' Rebecca points out.
 'Linda Perry and Clara, could opened up a bad can of worms for us, and I know you loved them both, but what if they hadn't died?' Bethany suggests.
 'Oh, this is real Bethany talking now.'
 'Listen to me. You could be in jail now, it that was the case. You would be a forgotten memory to Harry if he knew the truth. He'd hate you, just as much as he would hate me. I'd rather us live a lie, than to face the reality of what we don't want to be.'
 'Even after the now passed on, Joe Hayes controlled Daddy's feelings, you still love him' Rebecca queries.
 'Do wanna know something about the much loved Princess Tina Mquire?' Bethany begins. 'I loved her once, true I did. The sad thing is, she didn't love me. She was lucky, I wasn't......he may have been a Bastard, but she was the apple of his eye and she adored him. We lived in the same town together for years. He couldn't wait to turn his back on me, I was just his Bastard child he never wanted. He even beat on his own son and he became an alcoholic, that's the sort of influence a father can do to a son. What did I have? An alcoholic mother and a whore for a sister. Tina had everything I wanted. A father and the man I loved and even in death, she still walks on Harry's air. I told her the truth once, that Billy Mcquire was my Daddy also.'
 'What happened?' Rebecca interrupts.
 'She laughed at me,' Bethany said, will tears rolling down her father. 'The heartless bitch laughed at me. It was so painful I lashed out.'
 'Then what?'
 'We never talked again after.'
 'So, William Mquire is your father? Does Daddy know?'
 Bethany shakes her head.
 'Neither does Audrey, nor my half brother Greg. My Daddy can sit comfortably the other side of the Atlantic without so much as guilt or thought for myself or for what he did to my mother. She comfortably drank herself to death by 1985. The only gain I had, was having a rapist's child.'
 'No wonder you're so f****d up,' Rebecca realizes.
 Bethany smiles partially, wiping a tear away.
 'Please don't give up on me, because if we chuck in the towel now, then everything is a waste,' Bethany pleads, holding out her hand. 'I promise, I will never hurt you anymore. I want some sort of redemption. I beg of you.'
 Rebecca being so naïve takes Bethany's hand and they hug tightly. Bethany being so smug, seems to have won the manipulation game again.

F.B.P.D, Francis Bay. The owner of a boutique enters the police station and demands to speak to an officer immediately. He holds evidence of a sexual predator employee, who's been spying on customers in dressing rooms.

 

 Gloria's Home. Gloria makes a conscious, yet Amnesic Harry, some soup. He lays still partially dazed and not too familiar to his surroundings, as well as his life, prior to his attack by Gloria on the road. Gloria unlocks the bedroom door and brings in a bowl of soup, with bread and water. She unlocks Harry's wrist from the handcuffs and she helps sit him up in the bed and lays his lunch across his waist on a tray. He can feel the pain from his leg and arm, but Gloria supports him. Gloria sits beside him and checks his temperature.
 'You're still warm, but not as hot as before,' Gloria says.
 
'Gloria?' Harry questions. 'What's going on?'
 'Eat your lunch first and I'll fill you in on the missing pieces,' Gloria insists. 'You probably haven't eaten since yesterday.'
 'But, I don't remember yesterday,' Harry replies. 'My minds a blank, my memory, it's almost as if,my life had never existed, up until this morning.'
 'Well, what I'm going to tell you, you wished you hadn't existed before this morning,' Gloria suggests.
 'You must be so desperate to lock me in a room and handcuff me to a bed, in order to reveal my life to me,' Harry figures.
 'Harry, you seem like a nice guy,' Gloria continues. 'I'm not your enemy and know you seem to think that's what I am, considering I've put you in a situation the way you are. But, I had no idea you had amnesia since you told me.' Gloria then touches his face tenderly, as tears are brought to her eyes. 'I was you my Daddy, not the asshole that walked out of my life. Now, eat your soup, it's really nice, Tomato with a touch of Basil. I'll be back to check on you. I'm afraid I'll have to lock the door though.'
 Gloria leaves Harry to eat his lunch and she exits the bedroom and locks him in. She brushes her hair back, only to have a piece of it left in her hand. It appears Gloria's cancer is worsening and fear grips her, as she looks in the mirror. Gloria throws the hair into the bin and grabs a woollen hat from the closet and puts it on.

Kings Café, Francis Bay, Long Island. Officer Durham, pays a visit to Dominic, who is currently running the café, evening under the strain of knowing his wife, Charlotte is missing, unbeknown to both him and Deloris, that she was murdered by the Francis Bay Killer, known as Benita, who's accomplice to murder was Bethany. Durham asks Dominic if he could speak to him privately? While Deloris is distracted Dominic invites him upstairs to the apartment.
 'This may need to be brought to the FBI's attention, Dominic,' Durham states.
 'You have no leads on Charlotte I gather?' Dominic thinks.
 'No, it's like she vanished off the face of the Earth,' Durham answers.
 'This doesn't make any sense, one minute she's here, next morning she's gone,' Dominic gasps. 'Deloris has been going out her wits for a week.'
 'I know I shouldn't bring it up, and I didn't want to last week,' Durham speaks. 'Deloris told me Charlotte was on medication for depression and anxiety, because of the death of your son, years ago.'
 'Are you suggesting my wife took her own life?' Dominic worries.
 'Is it a possibility? Has she ever attempted?' Durham asks furthermore.
 'I must admit, it could have torn our family apart, but we were stronger than any family in the end,' Dominic claims. 'Thing is Charlotte was committed not long after James passing and she went over the edge, but like I said, myself and Deloris pulled her through and Deloris was confident to leave home for a while to go to college and leave me to care for her mother alone while she was gone. Charlotte was fine, this is just an unusual faze both myself and Deloris are going through and by the sounds of it, it's doesn't look good, when you suggest Feds.'
 
'The night Charlotte disappeared, both yourself and Deloris were asleep and did not hear a thing?'
 'No, I didn't wake up, until seven thirty and Deloris slept in 'til nine.'
 'So it's possible, Charlotte left the apartment and café, at her own accord?'
 'If there was a disturbance, I would have heard it.'
 Suddenly, Deloris bursts in the apartment and calls for her father and Durham to go into the cellar. Dominic and Durham head downstairs into the café cellar and Deloris points out the crowbar she nearly tripped over.
 'I picked it up and it had blood on it,' Deloris panics. 'Daddy, why is there blood on it?'
 Dominic stands with tears filling his eyes and a frightening shivers scurries down his spine. Durham grabs a plastic bag and nudges the crowbar into it and ties it up.
 'Did you pick this up?' Durham wonders.
 'It was instinct, I didn't want to trip over it,' Deloris cries. 'Why what are you implying?'
 'This is very frightening and a coincidence, that you would find blood on this, whilst you're mother has been put out as missing. I'm going to get this to a lab to check out on DNA.'
 'Durham, what is the likelihood, that Charlotte's DNA is on that crowbar?' Dominic shakes.
 'Let's
not get too carried away, when I said frightening, it could be anybody's DNA and somebody else's fate,' Durham explains.
 Durham leaves with the crowbar, leaving Dominic and Deloris in dire straits.
 'Daddy, something is not right,' Deloris cries. 'I may be jumping at straws, but what if Mom's disappearance is linked to Christopher and Harry's?'
 'It had crossed my mind,' Dominic nods.
 'But, what if Mom is dead?'
 'Deloris, you can't think like that?'
 'I don't want to believe it either Daddy, but that crowbar has blood on it and if it was Mom's, somebody else knows what happened to her.'
 Dominic can then think of only one other person......Bethany.


Gloria's Home. Gloria returns and removes Harry's empty dish and glass and returns and locks the door behind her and pulls up a chair beside the vulnerable cop. Gloria smiles at him, while Harry nervously smiles back, as he sits up in the bed, still feeling sore.
 'I hope that my hospitality is some consolation, aside from you know?' Gloria shrugs.
 'Well, it has been playing on my mind, I'm yet to figure you out, but that lunch was lovely thank you,' Harry appreciates.
 'If you hadn't lost your memory, then what I'm about to tell you, may have been more awkward and thought of me as insane or jealous,' Gloria said.
 'Why do you say that?' Harry whispers.
 'I'm dying, I've got cancer. So basically, I've nothing to lose, except from Rebecca's point of view,' Gloria informs.
 'Who's Rebecca?' Harry asks.
 'The woman who says she's your daughter, but really she's not.'

 

Gloria begins to reveal the shocking truth of Rebecca's true identity, and that she was never Harry's or Tina's daughter. Rebecca has taken the real Wilsons daughter's identity, so she could have some sort of biological connection to the supposed deceased Scarlett, who Tina gave up for adoption twenty three years earlier. Harry with amnesia, is unlikely to be able to come to terms with anything Gloria says, as he's been held in her home, whilst injured. In Harry's mind, he's never met either Rebecca or Bethany. He may not even remember his first love, Tina.
 'Look, what ever it is you're trying to prove, Gloria, I have no recollection of having a daughter,' Harry says.
 'Believe me, the last thing I want to do, is put you in more pain, but so to pre warn you in case your memory does return, I am telling the truth,' Gloria claims.
 Gloria takes out a photograph and shows it to Harry, who sits up in his bed and takes the picture. It's of Gloria and Rebecca only a few years earlier, prior to Rebecca changing her identity.
 'That's Rebecca and myself before she did her disappearing act,' Gloria informs.
 'She looks like a really nice person,' Harry whispers.
 'Don't be blinded by an innocent face Harry, she was far from that,' Gloria says.
 'Surely she couldn't have been that bad a person,' Harry answers.
 'That's not the point, the point is, she took a dead girls identity, just so she could have the life, that poor girl lost,' Gloria snaps. 'I lost my mother and my Daddy ran off to South America without so much as a second thought for me, yet when I see Rebecca pulling of a deceitful stunt like she's done for over year, it makes me think that I deserve to have this pain and she deserves the nobel prize.'
 'Who was the girl who died? Are you saying this other girl was my daughter and Rebecca took her identity? Did Rebecca kill her?' Harry wonders.
 'Not exactly, they were both nine years old at the time and your real daughter fell into a raging river,' Gloria explains. 'Her body was never found. Kind of strange that both your first wife and daughter have supposedly died and their bodies have never been recovered. Sounds like some sort of fate, is awaiting for you.....not unless some circumstances change in the meantime.'
 'My first wife?' Harry questions, feel a bit woozy. 'You're giving me too much information all at once, I can't keep up.'
 'I just don't want you to be led on, in case your memory is totally gone..forever.'
 'But, it's unfair for you to tell me this, when a girl that I don't remember can't be here to defend herself,' Harry adds. 'I hardly know you.'
 'I doubt it would be hard for her to deny everything, with your amnesic state, you're better off without her. For all you know, a lot more people might know and they could be covering for her, Bethany included.'
 'Bethany?'
 Gloria stands up and walks to the front of the bed and picks up the loose Handcuffs. Harry's eyes nervously glare at the handcuffs, fearing Gloria true motives at her keeping him at the her home. Gloria slowly manoeuvres her way towards Harry.
 'Harry, I get the feeling, you may never be able to co-operate, you seem very easy being evasive of my true feelings towards your well being and your determination lays with believing her,' Gloria seethes.
 'I've never met her,' Harry panics.
 'I'd like to get to know you better, maybe vice versa?'
 'Listen, I think this has gone far enough.'
 Harry tries to get out of the bed, but is immediately hit by sharp pain in his broken arm and leg. Gloria sees the opportunity and handcuffs him back to the bed. Harry cries out in pain. Gloria's obsession gets the better of her.
 'I'm sorry, Harry, but this is for your own good,' Gloria said, calmly.
 'Why are you doing this?' Harry cries out in pain.
 'Because I love you,' Gloria confesses.
 'Gloria, your very ill, I need you to listen........'
 'Like you listened to me?' Gloria raises her voice. 'Maybe two can play that bitches game, the tables have turned. I'm your daughter now, she's not, she will lie to you forever. That's why I can't let you leave. Nobody knows you're here, you'll remain here for the foreseeable future, at least until Heaven calls.........for us both.'
 Harry lays in fear, fear for a dying girl, who desperately attempts to make Harry see the light. But, all he can see is a desperate girl, clinging onto a love she lost in a father figure and who is losing hope of survival.

The Anchor Bar, 1/2 Mile, Outskirts of Francis Bay. Early Evening. Benjamin sits at a table alone with a half drunk beer, and he plays with the glass, as he day dreams. It's been over a week since Christopher went missing. It makes Benjamin really uptight, as well as tired. Despite Benjamin's manipulating attempts to keep his man, it appears Benjamin loved Chris. Christopher however had his own vendetta with another man. Even if Christopher is still alive, it's highly unlikely he will end up in Benjamin's arms, considering Christopher discovered who Benjamin was, his mother was and their connections. The entrance door opens and in steps Officer Durham, who spots a rather lonely Benjamin. Durham asks the bar tender to bring his beer over to the table and he brings company to a temporarily quiet Benjamin.
 'Can I share my grief, with yours?' Durham queries.
 'What grief is that?' Benjamin frowns.
 'Benjamin, this is a small town, you and Christopher,' Durham points out.
 'Yeah, well, I'm dealing with it, clinging onto hope,' Benjamin sighs. 'I was sorry to hear about Sumner. It was really tragic.'
 'Thanks, I hope you can attend his funeral tomorrow,' Durham acknowledges.
 'Sure,' Benjamin accepts. 'How is your missing case going on Charlotte King?'
 'I'm not supposed to tell you this, but we found something suspicious in the café basement earlier on, sent evidence off to forensics,' Durham whispers.
 'I see,' Benjamin raises his eyebrow. 'That doesn't sound promising.'
 'Dominic and Deloris, they're really distraught.'
 'I can imagine.'
 'I'm sure a lead will catch onto Christopher. There has to be a light at the end of the tunnel.'
 'Sure.'
 'If you need to talk, just holler.'
 Benjamin smiles slightly and is taken by Durham's words of comfort.

 

 Saturday 25th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. It's the day of Ted Sumner's funeral. To many he was victim to an outsiders attack, but he was far from it. He was a desperate cop himself trying to cover his own tracks. But, Joe Hayes interference and his untimely death, brought the conclusion of Bethany covering her own secrets. Bethany doesn't care much for Sumner, although she must keep up the pretence to make it look like she has human feeling, not that Sumner had much anyway. Rebecca thinks it's not a good idea, to make an appearance as they have other worries, due to Harry gone missing. Bethany assures Rebecca that they will hear news in due course. Emma agrees and Rebecca is reluctant to share the back seat will Benjamin, who has issues of his own, with his supposed worry of missing Christopher.

 Dominic insists both he and Deloris attend Sumner' s funeral, despite Charlotte also missing. Deloris is beside herself, after the discovery of blood in the basement. Dominic in thought, knows Bethany will be there, but it will not deter him from making a front, even if he also disliked the now departed Sumner, who had him held hostage over a week ago.

 Every attends the funeral of Ted Sumner at the town church and both Dominic and Deloris take different seats to the Wilsons as Dominic feels uncomfortable sitting next to his arch enemy and Deloris can't stand the site of Benjamin, Rebecca and Emma after what happened in Episode 132, 'Fives A Crowd.'
 'Can't say I blame her, can you?' Rebecca whispers to Emma.
 'Yeah, no thanks to him,' Emma raises her eyebrow, referring to Benjamin, who's sat the opposite side to Bethany.
 'Deloris looks the distraught, the toll it must be taking, not knowing what's happened to her mother,' Rebecca points out.
 Bethany starts to listen to Rebecca's conversation with Emma.
 'It's awful, just too much of a coincidence that three people would go missing within the same week and same area,' Emma says. 'You knew Charlotte more than I did, and with Christopher and your Dad....what's the link?'
 'I wish I knew,' Rebecca frowns.
 The service goes ahead and Durham makes a heart hearted speech and is overwhelmed by grief, Benjamin takes it upon himself to calm him. Rebecca and Emma know this is just a front of him being nice and the Kings are not convinced either.

 Gloria's Home.Harry now has one leg strapped around his leg and handcuffed by one hand. Gloria then enters the bedroom with lunch for Harry, who informs her that it's Sumner's funeral.
 'Well, since you're in no state to go, do you seriously think that, they will begrudge you not turning up?' Gloria chuckles.
 'Listen Gloria, are these straps and handcuffs necessary?' Harry wonders.
 'I want to trust Har.....Daddy, but.....maybe in time,' Gloria considers. 'And maybe, you'll grow to love me, like I already love you.'
 Harry stares at Gloria in sheer disbelief. He's hoping that she will come round and it's just part of her illness that is doing the talking. Parts of him feels sorry for what is happening to Gloria. It's tragic and there is nothing Gloria can do to help her survival. All she has is weeks or months. If she dies, while Harry lays helpless in bed, who will save him? But, what if Gloria does intend to take his life, if she sees the end is near?
 'I'm sure your officer friend, had a great send off,' Gloria assures Harry. 'Now eat up, we don't want your lunch getting cold.'
 Gloria kisses Harry on the forehead and heads to the door, before turning back.
 'You know I love you, don't you?' Gloria questions.
 Harry nervously smiles and nods at the same time.
 'It's just you and me,'til the end of time,' Gloria smiles.
 Gloria exits the room, with Harry staring at his lunch.
 'Oh help,' Harry groans to himself.

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Attending the wake at the Police Station, Emma attempts to make conversation with Deloris, but Deloris insists her kind words can't make up for what happened at the Palace Hotel in Manhattan. Deloris gives Benjamin the ultimate brush off, when he approaches her. Durham thanks Benjamin for his comfort and the mayor makes an appearance and speech on Sumner and assures the Wilsons and Kings that their loved ones will return home safe. Durham then gets pulled aside by a forensic officer and states that Charlotte Kings DNA, is on the crowbar, but it appears that the crowbar, was not used for any blunt trauma. Benjamin attempts to listen in.
 Dominic goes outside for fresh air and is surprised by Bethany's abrupt appearance.
 'I've been meaning to talk to you,' Bethany claims.
 'Is this the part where, we are supposed to share each others grief and f***?' Dominic sarcastically acknowledges. 'I told you, I don't want you anywhere near me.'
 'I just wanted you to know, that I'm praying for Charlottes safe return,' Bethany explains.
 'No shit,' Dominic snaps. 'And there's me thinking, you're behind the whole thing.'
 'I see, you think I had something to do with her disappearance?' Bethany second guesses.
 'Well, do you?'
 'No,' Bethany lies.
 'Harry's disappearance must be driving you crazy, he's either dead or somebody's kidnapped him or even possibly faked his own death to get to you,' Dominic figures. 'Either way, he's had a lucky escape. Say, the same about Christopher, where your beloved son is concerned.'
 'Keep your voice down,' Bethany warns.
 'Ever since the day, you came here, I feared that this time would come. It's destroyed everything, that I worked hard for, and the people I love,' Dominic cries. 'I did all your dirty work, and you still pushed and pushed.'
 'This is probably the last thing I'd want to ask, but what has happened to the tape recording of the confessions? The one that Joe Hayes gave to Charlotte before she died?' Bethany worries.
 'Don't worry your cunning pretty little head about that one. It's OK Beth, I haven't decided to throw in the f*****g towel just yet. And that's not for your sake. It's for my Daughters.'
 Dominic drinks up his wine and heads back into the police station. Dominic and Deloris are then pulled aside by Durham, who informs them of the forensic discovery and Deloris breaks down, as she realizes they are dealing with a murder inquiry. Dominic takes his daughter home. Durham is really stressed and Benjamin offers him a drink back at his cabin home.

 Benjamin gets Durham drunk and one thing leads to another.

 

 

 Sunday 26th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Durham awakes next to Benjamin, with a massive hangover. He jumps out of bed, and starts getting dressed. Benjamin tries to encourage him to stay, but Durham thinks he's made a big mistake and takes off, leaving Benjamin frustrated.

 Gloria again tends to Harry, with breakfast and informs him that she will run him a bath. Harry attempts to persuade her to take him to a hospital, but she insists it won't be necessary. Gloria brings a wheel chair, with some pills, but before she can make the bed, she feels faint and takes a breather. Gloria refuses let the cancer get the better of her and puts Harry into the wheel chair and escorts him down the one level house corridor to the bathroom.
 'Are you going to be present, while I wash?' Harry queries, feeling the pain in both his arm and leg, as well as uncomfortable.
 'I will be pulling up a chair, just outside the door, just to make sure you don't hurt yourself,' Gloria claims. 'And to make sure you don't try anything silly.'
 'Like what, make an escape?' Harry raises his eyebrows. 'I'm hardly in a condition to run a Marathon.'
 'No need for sarcasm Daddy,' Gloria smiles. 'Here let me help you undress.'
 Gloria removes Harry's bottoms and the swelling and bruising of his injuries are clear to the eye. Harry is very worried.
 'It's bad I know, but it can only get better, so will your arm,' Gloria says.
 'In all honesty, you should be getting care, since you mentioned you had...you know, I mean is this vendetta against my supposed daughter, worth the stress?' Harry reminds her.
 'It's a challenge, worth taking on, since I have nothing to lose anymore. You won't change my mind, this is your home now,' Gloria states.
 'People will be looking for me,' Harry points out.
 'Enough talk, please, I have f*****g headache, and you're going on like a f*****g parrot. I'm trying to keep you safe, you ungrateful Bastard!' Gloria snaps.
 Harry sits in shock, by Gloria's abrupt outburst, but almost immediately Gloria is guilty by this and quickly apologizes. Harry reluctantly and nervously accepts her apology and she helps him into the bath. When goes to sits by the bathroom door, she becomes faint again, and notices that her hair is start to fall away.

Dominic and Deloris are made aware that an advanced search party has ensued for Charlotte and a brazen Bethany offers to take party and whilst alone in her room, she makes a call to the Francis Bay Killer, Benita. Dominic refuses Bethany's help and that she should concentrate on finding Harry. Rebecca is concerned that something even more devastating has happened to Harry and that his disappearance could be linked to both Christopher's and Charlottes. Emma in her mind doesn't think so. Emma receives a call from Elaina on her cell phone. Elaina is calling her from the New York Times.
 'What are you doing at work, you've got other superiors running the paper, while you tend to Abraham,' Emma said.
 'I was just on my way back from seeing Andy and I thought I'd have a few moments to myself,' Elaina replies. 'It scares me seeing him like that. I have no more than five weeks and there's no more options.'
 'He'll make it, I know it, you have to believe he will too.'
 'I try everyday Emma, but why is he there? Elaina cries. 'Because, Christopher was after a man, that knew Harry and that he could possibly be in danger.'
 'I haven't had time to look into this dilemma personally, Harry has gone missing too amongst other things,' Emma explains.
 'Maybe, we should get Harry to explain to me, why Christopher suspects an organization is after him and my husband is caught in the crossfire,' Elaina considers.
 'Like you said, we have to investigate this between you I, there are a lot of bad goings on here in Francis Bay, and I don't like them. Three people that Bethany, Rebecca and myself know have vanished within a week. Don't you find that odd?' Emma suspects.
 'Possibly.'
 'Christopher' s warning before I last heard from him that night, sounded like someone close, was somebody I shouldn't trust.'
 'Well, when you get the chance to play detective, I might go for a long shot and track down Eric Lance, that's if he's still alive,' Elaina informs. 'I wanna know why my husband is fighting for his life.
 'What about Chanel Mantel?' Emma questions.
 'I think I want my son to know, that at least one of his parents are still at full health, too dangerous. Anyway call me when you get the chance.'
 After exchanging goodbyes, Elaina gets to work. The camera pans to Elaina's phone and it has been tapped by Hugo and Beagle.

Benjamin sits in his fisherman's office on Francis Bay Harbour and is constantly distracted by his reflection in the mirror. He then stands up and kicks the chair in annoyance. Durham the enters the office and quickly apologises for his getaway that morning and says he would like to see Benjamin again, if he would like the company. Benjamin smiles and offers to help participate in Charlottes search. No leads have been found on her disappearance.

 Both Dominic and Deloris make pleas on the news and Bethany begins to get really tense, while watching, knowing she was an accomplice in Charlottes murder, or the person who set it up.

 Harry playing along with Gloria, offers her to have dinner with him. What's his intensions?

NYC PRECINCT, MANHATTAN. Hugo and Beagle listen to the recordings of Elaina and Emma's conversation.

FBPD, Francis Bay. Following an arrest of a boutique employee, who had been spying on women undressing, a police officer finds one dated Saturday 24th August 2002. He plays it and watches two females enter a dress room. They looks familiar.
The one female, is Rebecca and the other is Linda Perry (Cassidy Freeman), dressed in a scarf, wearing sunglasses and gloves. 'Rebecca this isn't such a good idea,' Linda says.
'Hey, it's just you and me nobody else,' Rebecca puts her arms around her and kisses her. 'I love you.'
'I'm too much of a liability.' '
You're talking to the master of liabilities, now lets see this hot stuff on ya, it's OK, just remember, I'm here.'

The officer is shocked by the two people, in the video, more to the fact that not only is his colleagues supposed daughter in the video, but also who was once the female vampire killer Linda Perry, who's life was eventually taken by the Francis Bay Killer, on Halloween night.
 'No shit,' The officer gasps.

 

Gloria's Home. Gloria sits in her room and gazes at what life she has left in her. She is slowly dying and when the time comes, she is hoping Harry will see, who Rebecca really is. Her face is pale. every last bit of energy, wasting on hatred. She grasps a pair of scissor and starts to cut away at her falling hair, as Harry once again lays helpless in the room opposite, in pain.

 Dinner comes round at 7:30. P.M., and Gloria escorts Harry into the kitchen for dinner. Gloria is surprised that Harry wanted dinner with her. Harry notices that Gloria has cut her hair down. Gloria takes her pills and Harry pretends he has pain and she places the bottle of capsules on the table for him, although he does ask for a glass of water. As she heads to the faucet, he starts to pour the capsules into her glass of wine. After she brings the water to him, he puts one in his mouth and takes it down with his water. Gloria lays down the dinner for him and they both raise a glass. Harry starts to drink his wine and Gloria puts the glass to her mouth, with a smug look on her face. Harry starts to feel woozy, then extremely dizzy, until he passes out.

 Later that evening, Harry is strapped down with both legs and both his hands handcuffed together. Harry awakes to Gloria standing over him in the dark, and to the sound of pouring rain outside.
 'You really thought you could outwit me, because you'd take advantage of my cancer?' Gloria grunts.
 Harry freezes in terror, as she moves closer, with intent to torture.
 'I saw you in the reflection of my mini kitchen mirror, putting your pills into my glass,' Gloria explains. 'I wondered why you were so keen to get me to have dinner with you, because you know I would give you your pills and without thinking for that one moment, I realized I put the whole bottle on that table after you asked for a glass of water and I had to glance my one eye to your reflection. You could've ended my pain, there and then, just so you could get back home to your precious Rebecca.'
 'Gloria?'
 'Why is it so important to you to go to someone you don't remember, when you should be grateful for how I've taken care of you?' Gloria snaps. 'Well, you can forget the pampering from now on. 'You'll get your feeds, your washes. But apart from that, you'll be as you are, until the day I die.'
 'It doesn't have to be this way,' Harry pleads.
 'For whom? You, me, your wife.....or her?'
 'It's terrible what's happening to you, I wish I could make it better, but this, it paints a bad picture for yourself,' Harry answers.
 'Then I've got nothing to lose then, nobody cares about what I'm going through, all I have is pity and a doctor dating out my possible fate. If you can't see the truth, then I will deliver it to someone else,' Gloria voices.

 Monday 27th January 2003, Francis Bay, Long Island. Gloria turns up at the Wilsons and offers her support to the family and tells them, that she hopes Harry will be found safe and well. Little do they know, she is holding him captive in her home. Rebecca appreciates Gloria's fake words of comfort and Gloria offers to invite the family over for dinner that evening and insists she would like the company and that she has something important to show them. Rebecca accepts the offer. Rebecca escorts Gloria to her car, where Gloria removes her hat and all her hair is gone. Rebecca is shocked and emotional. Gloria says, that having Rebecca as her friend, will be a comfort in her final months alive. Gloria gives Rebecca her address, before driving away. Gloria drives past officer Ingram's patrol car and he asks to speak to Rebecca in private. They ascend the Light House and look out to sea.
 'Miss Wilson, I don't know how to tell you this, but I have evidence which shows your association with the deceased Linda Perry,' Ingram informs.
 'I don't understand,' Rebecca frowns.
 'During a separate case, we came across videotapes and there was one that stood out. I alone watched the video, which showed a camcorder recording both you and the Miss Perry, in what appeared to be a very intimate moment,' Ingram states.
 'Are you sure it was me?' Rebecca asks.
 'You stood out perfectly in the video and it was most definitely Miss Perry with you.....So were you and Miss Perry sexually involved?'
 'Why? Why does it matter?' Rebecca worries.
 'Because after two of my colleagues were murdered by Miss Perry, three months ago, you disappeared with her,' Ingram reminds her. 'You weren't kidnapped were you? You were protecting her.'
 'Look, you are being disrespectful, my father is missing and you decide to throw theses disgusting accusations at me,' Rebecca seethes. 'Well, f**k you. Don't you have any decorum?'
 'My sympathy will always be here, based on your father, Miss Wilson. But, I'm not letting this go. I suspect you knew of Miss Perry's vampire outburst long before her death and you covered for her after she created a massacre. You won't admit it, but in time, you'll have no choice. I'll stay in touch.'
 Ingram leaves the Lighthouse, and Rebecca in dire straits. She is almost short of breath with huge anxiety ascends her. She almost hyperventilates with panic. Gloria gets impaired vision momentarily and then she informs Harry of her plan to humiliate Rebecca right in front of him, as well as who is coming to the supposed dinner, including Emma. It's 6PM, only ninety minutes and Harry is helpless, as well as Amnesic.

 At the Wilson's Bethany finds, Gloria's address on the table and realizes it's a suburb, just an intersection away from the crash site where Harry went missing. Bethany begins to get suspicious and pulls a shaky Rebecca upon it.
 'This address that Gloria gave you,' Bethany points out. 'It's only a few blocks away from the intersection, where your father went missing.'
 'Oh right,' Rebecca answers nervously.
 'Are you OK?' Bethany asks, getting suspicious.
 'Yeah, just thinking about Daddy,' Rebecca replies, now under the eye of an officer, that knows of Rebecca's connection to the deceased Linda Perry. 'What are you trying to say about the address?'
 'Like I just said, your father went missing just off the Cul-de-sac, that is written on this piece of paper,' Bethany repeats.
 'Maybe it's just a coincidence,' Rebecca figures brushing her hair.
 'Whatever you say,' Bethany shrugs.
 Bethany heads upstairs and can hear Emma is still busy getting ready for the dinner, that won't be and she heads into the bedroom and makes a quick phone call.
 'Hi, it's me,' Bethany whispers. 'I've just discovered something strange about something in my possession right now. I need your help.........right now.'

NYC. At a hotdog stand around 6:45 PM, Hugo and Beagle agree to keep go out of their local territory and make it their own personal jurisdiction in the investigation into the Cosmos and Harry Wilson's, who's name was mentioned between Emma and Elaina.

 Francis Bay, Long Island. Emma notices Rebecca is looking peaked, but Rebecca insists she is fine. The three girls hop into the car and begin a twenty minute drive to Gloria's home.

Gloria's residence. Gloria re-enters, the room Harry is kept in with a shotgun and it appears, she is deteriorating faster than she realized. She is struggling for breath and her face is much paler.
 'The pain is getting worse, Daddy,' Gloria cries out. 'Once they get here, I think I'll have to end it all tonight, for everyone.'
 'Gloria I know you're suffering, but please this is not the way,' Harry pleads.
 'Well it is for me,' Gloria strains her voice. 'Why should that bitch win. It's not fair.'
 'I can help you,' Harry shivers.
 'That's what they all say, but it's just words. Just utter Bullshit,' Gloria grunts.
 'Even if it is true, that Rebecca may have lied about who she is, you'll come out of this far worse,' Harry suggests. 'What people will hear is, is that you kidnapped me and murdered myself and my family in cold blood and then cowardly killed yourself. Neither the press or Public will see you as a the poor girl with a tragic illness, that's eating you alive. That's not you talking Gloria, it's the disease. If it was you talking, you wouldn't hurt Rebecca for sure would you. I know in that heart of yours, you're a good person, a good person who doesn't deserve to die from an evil poison that should never exist. Please, if you let me help, you can die peacefully with a warm hand to lead you to heaven. I beg you, is it really worth it?'
 Gloria thinks momentarily as a sharp hits her temple and she staggers out of the room, with the shotgun. Harry hopes his words of hopeful wisdom have done the trick.

 It has just gotten dark, and a presence is moving towards Gloria's home via the back door. The assailant uses a lock pick to gain access to Gloria's home and enters the kitchen.

 Bethany receives a message on her cell and it's reads. 'Did a little investigating before I go in and you were right, just found Harry's I.D Card in the trash. I'll take it from here. B x. Bethany smirks to herself as she places the phone back in her pocket, as she continues to drive to Gloria's, along with Rebecca and Emma.

The camera pans downward to high heeled boots. The face of the assailant is not shown.  The intruder is none other than, Benita, the Francis Bay Killer, who is doing it's deed for Bethany. Holding it's machete the killer slowly manoeuvres in the dark hallway of the house and is stopped in it's tracks by Gloria stood behind, grasping a shotgun at the murderer, whilst swaying. Gloria is unstable and weaker than ever, but that doesn't stop her.
 'Don't move a f*****g muscle Bitch. What is this f*****g Halloween?' Gloria snaps. 'Drop your weapon now.'
 The killer in the cloak, drops the machete, with it's hands up.
 'Now turn around and let s........ee .....thos.....hhhhhands,' Gloria orders.
 The Francis Bay murderer turns to face Gloria, Camera still concealing the identity of the murderer. Gloria appears to know who it is by her expression.
 'Oh it's you,' Gloria chuckles bravely fight off her pain. 'Didn't see as the type in touch with it's feminine side. Maybe you can tell me all about it, when YOU SIT THE F*** DOWN ON THAT CHAIR AND I PUNISH YOU..........severely.

 

NYT, NYC. Elaina makes a brief appearance at her desk late at night and takes a moment to look at a picture of herself, Abraham and Andy together. All she can do is live in hope that he awakes from his coma, within the next couple of weeks. Elaina then notices that, some things have been moved around and suspects somebody has been intruding in her office. She then looks at the phone and opens the bottom cover and is shocked to find it bugged. She takes the bug out and places the phone back down. Almost immediately, the phone rings and she answers.

 'Hello?'...................Oh my God. What the hell are you doing calling here?"

Gloria Lang's Residence. Gloria has the Francis Bay murderer at gun point in her kitchen, whilst Harry is in the bedroom down the hallway. The camera doesn't show the identity of the  Francis Bay killer.
 Gloria is more and more going to desperate measures, as her vision becomes more impaired and her body more unstable. Gloria throws insults at the murderer, but the assailant remains calm.
 'You know, I thought I was nuts, but you, you're something else and I don't know how you found me, but Harry is not going anywhere,' Gloria threats. 'If anything Norman Bates, we can all die here tonight, as long as Harry discovers the truth about Rebecca. Funny, I'm surprised you two hate each other, considering your darkness is almost as delusional as hers. You can call me a hypocrite if you like..............No? Well, I guess this is where it ends for you. Adios Bitch.'
 Gloria then stumbles against the chair and fires at the ceiling. The Francis Bay Killer reacts and knocks the shotgun out of her hand. Gloria attempts to wrestle with the psycho, but it's too strong. The murderer gets Gloria into a headlock and slams her into the refrigerator. Gloria can hardly get her breath and is thrown against the cooker, where the gas is accidently turned on. The killer steps into the hallway to retrieve it's machete. Outside, Bethany, Rebecca and Emma arrive across the road and Rebecca points out the address. Bethany is aware of what might be occurring. The murderer steps back into the kitchen in attempt to claim it's supposed fifth victim, when it notices Gloria is about to strike a match with the gas on.
 'Come on, you man whore, do your worst,' Gloria tries provoke. 'You're not taking him away from me.'
 The murderer does not hesitate to dart of out the back door, just as Gloria strikes the match. Bethany, Rebecca and Emma take a few paces toward the house, when it suddenly explodes. The three duck for cover from the debris. Rebecca is first to rise to her feet.
 'Well, I'll be f***ed,' Rebecca gasps.
 Bethany fears that not only Benita has been blown to smithereens, but also Harry as well.
 'No,' Bethany silently cries out.
 Suddenly, a voice is heard behind them. It's Harry. He had somehow released himself, whilst Gloria was distracted and got out before the explosion.
 'Harry!!' Bethany shouts.
 'Daddy!!' Rebecca screams in relief.
 She quickly hugs her father, as a relieved Bethany and Emma watch on.
 'I thought I lost you, so glad you're alright,' Rebecca tearfully says.
 'I'm glad you think that, but I've got to admit, I don't remember either of you,' Harry acknowledges.
 Upon learning the shock, Bethany is concerned for the mass murderer, who has caused many massacres.

 Kings Café, Francis Bay, Long Island. Dominic and Deloris are informed by the police, that the search and investigation into Charlottes bloody disappearance could come to a temporary stop and may have consider that she is dead. Deloris breaks down, and Dominic is in shock.

 Bethany tries to make Harry feel at home and Rebecca is left bewildered by Gloria's actions and wonders why she would kidnap her father. Fellow officers are pleased that Harry has returned safely. Harry points out that Gloria was dying and that her cancer was to blame for what happened. But, this makes Rebecca more anxious to know what was said behind closed doors. Secondly, she has the worry of another officer, knowing her association with the deceased, Linda Perry. Rebecca and Bethany head into a private conversation.
 'Do you think he will get his memory back?' Rebecca wonders.
 'Give it time,' Bethany insists. 'Just be happy that he's back here with us.'
 'I've just got a bad feeling about, what happened at that house,' Rebecca worries.
 'Like, did Gloria tell the Harry the truth about your true identity?' Bethany figures. 'If she did, I wouldn't worry, because you'll have me to convince him, that Gloria was talking out of her ass.'
 'That's not the only problem, somebody else knows about me and Linda.'
 'Who?'
 Suddenly, the front door opens. It's Benjamin. Bethany smiles.

 Later, that evening, Rebecca checks in on Harry and kisses him goodnight.
 'I love you Daddy,' Rebecca whispers. 'Even if you don't remember.'
 Rebecca exits, just as Harry is aware of what she said.

 Next door in Benjamin's cabin house, Durham stops by to find out how Benjamin feels and Benjamin is more than happy to let him stay. Benjamin glances momentarily at himself in the mirror, before placing a CD in the Hi Fi.
 'I hope you like sixties music. This is the Dave Clark five. Glad all Over, a song so catchy. Of course they weren't a match for the Beatles, but what the hell, in my opinion just as good,' Benjamin chuckles.

 'You say that you love, say you love me
All of the time, you say that you need me
You always be mine

I'm feeling Glad All Over, baby I'm Glad all Over,
so Glad your miiiiinnnne'

Benjamin exits the living room for a few moments as the song continues to play. You can hear Benjamin still talking. His voice then gets louder as it sounds like he re-entered the room.
 'I just love classics, so much more about music than the flaunting of today don't you agree honey?' Benjamin' s voice sounds
 'Of course,' Durham grins looking out in the direction of the estuary.
 'Hey, Babe.'
 Durham turns with the camera still on him
 Bethany can hear the music in the distance and proceeds to the cabin, where she makes a shocking discovering with the camera staying on her.
 'Oh my f*****g God,' Bethany stands in horror.
 The camera freeze frames on Bethany.

 It's a few days since, Harry returned home safe and sound, since his ordeal at the home of the now deceased, Gloria Lang. Harry still has fractures to an arm and leg, but is assured of the comfort from Bethany and Rebecca. Bethany again hides a dark secret of what occurred the previous Monday evening in Benjamin's cabin Rebecca is somewhat anxious, on what happened at the home of Gloria's, but Bethany insists that Harry will tell her all in good time. Rebecca reminds Bethany that Ingram is still lurking around and she feels intimidated. Bethany considers speaking to him, but Rebecca reminds Bethany, that she will be implicating herself in perverting the course of justice. Bethany promises her step daughter that everything will work out fine.

 The police have already questioned Harry on the events of the four days he was missing, but Harry lies and says that Gloria was just a scared girl, who's mind was messed up by a killer disease.

 A missing report has gone out on Officer Durham, and this disturbs Deloris and Dominic, as they fear there is a massive re-occurrence of missing people in Francis Bay and Dominic smells a rat. Plus, the police suspect that Linda Perry may not have been behind all the missing cases, prior to her death, back on the 1st November previous year. Dominic is convinced in his own mind, that Bethany is connected to Charlottes disappearance.

 The mayor declares a town meeting via a press conference and this throws Bethany into immediate action.

'What's the link here?' Hugo asks.
 'When I queried the guest of that Hex-Ville reunion, guess who one of them was?' Beagle speaks.
 'Harry Wilson?'
 'You got it,' Beagle nods. 'The vampire, Linda Perry who was found dead on Francis Bay, beach last year, was a missing employee, under a different name. The organization was the   Cosmos,
 the secret organization that studied Meta Humans, was where she worked. It's in fact the same organization, that was involved in Wilsons adopted sons, kidnapping four years ago. If you look at the news article, the on the Halloween night before she died, she attacked Harry Wilsons wife, his daughter and himself.
 'But, what do the Wilsons have to do with what happened in Hex-Ville?' Hugo wonders.
 'That's what we're gonna find out,' Beagle informs.
 'You want to go to Francis Bay don't you?' Hugo suspects.
 'Listen, Mrs Carlisle and Mrs Emma Wilson started this, it's a chance to expose a great conspiracy here. The Wilsons sound like they have a massive connection to something extremely bad,' Beagle explains. 'They could be the reason Abraham is in a coma.'
 'OK, but I have to remind you, it's not our jurisdiction.'
 'That's why I've put in our vacation form.'
 
'Which starts?'
 'This Monday. We've got more of a chance of unravelling the truth, than the dimwits of Francis Bay, who can't see what's happening under their noses.'

 Francis Bay, Long Island


The mayor brings together the majority of the towns people of Francis Bay for a very important meeting, following two kidnappings, two deaths, another person missing and several other happenings that have occurred in Francis Bay. One local sarcastically suggests, that everyone might as well call Francis Bay 'Amity Second- Ville.' Locals ask why so many mysterious and horrific happenings have occurred in the last six+ months? The mayor tells everyone to be calm and informs them that the FBI will be within the vicinity of the Bay in the next couple of days and may warrant to search not only public areas and outskirts of the Bay, but also will set up surveillance in certain neighbourhoods of the town. The mayor concludes that there may be some paranormal presence in Francis Bay. Bethany seems prepared for the coming threat, that could implicate her, in the influence of Charlottes and Durham missing status, Linda Perry, Clara Bartons and Joe Hayes deaths etc. How long can she hold out, until suspicion is gone? If it ever will, considering Bethany senses people are whispering amongst themselves, making assumptions.

 


 Metropolitan Hospital, Manhattan, NYC.

Elaina brings Andy along with her, to see his father Abraham, who has been in a coma for weeks and it's only weeks, until they know for sure if Abraham will make a recovery. Andy stays strongs as he holds his fathers hand.


"Be brave OK," Elaina says. "Daddy will make it through you'll see. It's just like he's sleeping."


"Mommy, if he dies, will he go to heaven?" Andy asks. " Like where Grandpa Brendan went?"


"He won't die, don't say that," Elaina acknowledges.


"But is there a Heaven?"

 "Of course theres a heaven. There's a place in Heaven for all of us. But, not just yet. We've got to get busy living first, that goes for your father too."


"Sure."

 About a minute later, Elaina recieves a message on her cell phone. 'Remember our meeting, the time, the place. I have something important to give you. Please I beg of you, it's important. Again I'm sorry for what happened to Abraham.' Who is the mystery caller?

 


 Francis Bay, Long Island.

Bethany, Emma and Rebecca return home and the phone rings. Bethany answers it. It cuts off. Bethany heads upstairs to check on Harry, who is sat watching 'Sally Jessy Raphael' and still without a memory. The phone rings again and this time, Rebecca answers it, leaving Emma in the kitchen. It's Ingram demanding a meeting. He tells her it could keep her in good stead if and when Federal Agents investigate the area. Emma asks who it was? Rebecca lies and says she couldn't hear who it was and that it could have been a prankster. Bethany is unable to show any pictures familiar to him, as they were burnt in the explosion, at Harry's apartment in Season Sevens 'Explosive Grudge.' Bethany tries to get him to think hard about their high school years, but nothing she says can make him remember. Bethany heads into the bathroom and heads into thought.

 


Sunday
1st April
1979
Hex-Ville,
Upstate NY.

 

 Carla plays an April fools prank on Bethany by suggesting Harry wrote her a letter declaring his love. Bethany hurries to Harry's home, where she sees him in a clinch with Tina. Bethany assures that she will get her own back. Carla reminds her to do it before 12:00 PM.


It's a month since, Audrey had an abortion and Billy is determined to destroy his enemies.


Harry is still in shock at Jeff's change and working for Jonathan their father at the construction site, but Harry still doesn't trust him.

 Bethany is upstairs, when she hears a scream from downstairs and finds Carla with a broom, who tells her sister there is a snake under the kitchen sink. Bethany goes to retrieve and it's a fake.

 "You rotten Bitch," Carla curses.

 "April Fools," Bethany chuckles.

 "Not f*****g funny. What if I had a heart condition?"

 "Told you I get my own back."

 "Wow, you sure have guts little sister, still can't believe you took my word."

 "I bet if it was the other way round, you'd believe it too," Bethany suggests.

 "Yeah, right," Carla denies.

 

 

 Albert Kray is eventually approached by the Crocetti mob after being watched for a month and is blackmailed into doing bigger jobs for them, more dangerous jobs or he will regret he ever knew the Crocetti's. He is also told to have Hank Willis involved. Billy Mcquire is relishing seeing the local policeman under severe pressure, but is disappointed that Jeff is no longer part of the Grand Theft Conspiracies, but that may not be the end of it, just yet.

Jeff is finding his feet at the construction, he is listening and singing to George Harrisons 'My Sweet Lord,' on the radio when Carla pays him a visit.
"Found religion have you Jeffrey Wilson?" Carla teases.

 "Hey you," Jeff smirks.

 "Been put on the naughty step or this a way of trying to make yourself believe your a change man?" Carla asks.

 "Don't worry I hadn't forgotten about you," Jeff insists, giving Carla a peck on the cheek. "This is a surprise. Not giving Hank the time of day?"

 "Only for today, he's got a big job on with Kray."

 "Not as big as long as I'm not there."

 "Does that mean I still get to share you both?"

 "Now, Carla that's only limited now."

 "Then when?" Carla queries.

 "Soon, I promise," Jeff claims.

  Carla looks up and see Jon Wilson working. Jeff notices Carla looking.

 "That's not a good idea, remember what happened the last time, you started teasing my father," Jeff reminds Carla

 "Your right, there is a time and place after all," Carla raises her eyebrow. "Catch ya later hot stuff."

 Harry is informed that there are no leads on who tried to shoot him in the school showers, three months earlier and is just put as a random attack. This frustrates Harry, but Tina pleads with to let it go and concentrate on their relationship and prospects when leaving High School.

 Audrey meets up with Otto Cole, and confesses to aborting their baby. Otto is shocked and storms off.

 Dominic has a secret meeting with Charlotte and the only way they can be together is if they get married, by the time High School is finished in the summer.

 "I love you Charlotte, your the best thing to happen to me in.......well your the best thing," Dominic says.

Francis Bay, Long Island.


 Dominic holds a picture Charlotte in his hands, blaming himself for her being missing. The guilt he's carried for years, based on their son James death and for his conspiracies involving Bethany. All he has left, is Deloris and if she ever discovered the truth, she would possibly hate him more than Charlotte ever did and he would then rot in prison. Deloris then surprises him and tells him that the FBI are in town and are setting up surveillances in and around the town. It may last some time.

 Rebecca has an uncomfortable meeting with Ingram and he demands $2000 a week to keep quiet about concealing a once murderer in Linda Perry and her relationship with her, or he will expose he truth. Rebecca is in a massive dilemma.

 Hugo and Beagle are making their journey to Francis Bay to investigate the Wilsons, but they have to try and hold off the press and FBI to get to the front of the pile. Beagle reads out more news articles based on events in Francis Bay.

  FRANCIS BAY
 BENJAMINS CABIN HOUSE

  

Bethany takes a look in on Benjamin, who is pretty tense and rather shaken. She sits with him on the bed.

 

   'What if Benita comes back?' Benjamin reminds his mother.

   'As long as this town is under surveillance, you can't leave this room,' Bethany figures.

  'Great idea Mom, like that's not gonna create suspicion.'

  'As long as a threat is out there, Benita can snap at any time.'

  'So how long do I have to keep up the pretence? Until I grow a five foot beard?'
 

 
 'The Feds are not gonna be here forever. I will get us out of this. I've not failed so far.'

 
' Don't you mean we?'

 'OK we.'

  
 'So, I guess I have to pretend to be ill?'

 
 'Have you any other suggestions?'

 
 'Please don't blow this mother. Otherwise this bedroom will feel a whole lot quicker to prison, than the f*****g psycho......you know.'
​

 Bethany pauses momentarily and realizes something. She smirks to herself. Benjamin wonders what she has in mind.


  'What is it?'

  'I think I know how to save us.'
​

 
 Hugo and Beagle are watching the Wilson house via binoculars, pretending to fish. They agree to make their move by morning.

 Ingram demands money from Rebecca by midday, on the phone. Rebecca is in a dilemma.

 

 

 

 EX SARATOGA SPRINGS
 NY STATE

 DARK. ELAINA CARLISLE and ERIC LANCE are face to face for the first time in weeks. The meeting between the two takes places within the vicinity of Abrahams hit 'n run.
 The sound of a river is raging below on a cold night. Eric is disguised in a hoodie and Elaina is upset, that he had the nerve to contact her, considering she feels he is partially responsible   for Abraham being in a coma. Elaina wearing LEATHER GLOVES grips her hand bag, as he comes out of the shadows.


 'Hi Elaina,' Eric speaks.
​
Elaina stares at him aggressively with reply. Eric takes two steps towards her. Elaina pulls out a REVOLVER from her handbag and points it at Eric. Eric suddenly stops and raises his hands slightly.


 
 'I'm not your enemy.'

 
 'Then what are you? You're certainly not a friend,' Elaina seethes.

 
 'I'm sorry about Abs, I never wanted it to come to this.'

 
 'Why did you bring me here of all places?'

 
 'I didn't run very far. To be honest I didn't have to.'
​
Elaina frowns still pointing the gun at him.



 'You're the reason he's in the hospital.'

 
 'Now, wait a minute, I wasn't the one who kidnapped you.'

 
 'And why did Christopher do it? All because of you!'

 
 'Fine OK I started this mess, are you f*****g satisfied now?!'
​
Elaina's hand shivers, as she seems willing to get her revenge.Tears roll down her face.


   
 'I won't be satisfied until you pay for what you did.'


 'Can you at least hear me out, before you decide my fate?'

 
 'Go ahead, I'm listening.'
​
Eric feels uneasy explaining himself with Elaina still pointing her gun at him.


 
 'Can you at least let me explain, without that thing?.......please?'
​
Elaina hesitates.



 'Please, I know I'm a hard person to understand, but tonight you can trust me. I called you here for a good cause...and because I need your help.'
​
 Elaina eventually lowers the gun, although still making eye contact, to be sure that Eric doesn't make any threatening movements towards her. Eric lowers his hands, as Elaina places the
 gun cautiously into her handbag.Eric points to a bench overlooking the Springs river.


  
 'Can we sit down?'
​
Elaina doesn't reply. She doesn't feel that she can be safe enough to trust him.



 'Please Elaina this is a matter of life and death. A lot of people can get hurt.'

 
 'Too late for that. But, I 'll listen....for now.'
​
Elaina walks ahead of Eric, who follows on behind.The two take a seat overlooking the Springs. Elaina is shivers.Eric takes note.


 'Are you cold?' Eric queries.

 
 'Don't pretend you care. Andy looked up to you,' Elaina snaps.

 
 'How is he?'
​
  Elaina turns annoyed


   
' How do you think he is? His father is on life support.'


 'Do you know why Abraham was run over that night or who kidnapped Christopher and myself?'
​
Elaina remains a bit more calmer.


 
' It was Chanel. Or so I thought it was her,' Eric informs.

  
 'You thought? Does this have to do with the disk that you gave me before the break in?' Elaina asks.


 'I'll come to that. But, Chanel wasn't Chanel. She was Bethany's sister.'
​
 Elaina is confused


  
 'Bethany's sis....you mean Bethany married to Harry Wilson?'

 
 'I'm not going to lie to you anymore Elaina. That disk had vital and incriminating evidence on the Cosmos Organization. Even criminal activity involving me.'

 
' I should have known, you and the Cosm...'
​
 Eric interrupts her to try and assure her.



' No, no, I was never part of that society directly, only...I had a relationship with the Founder of the organization.'

 
 'But, what does that have to do with Bethany?'

 
 'Carla, Bethany's sister was the daughter of the founder of project Gemini, after his project was shut down in 1979, she secretly restarted it in the Autumn of 1995 under the name Cosmos.
​
Elaina's mouth drops in shock at Eric's admission.


  
 'Oh my God.'


 'Have you not heard from Christopher?'

 
 'No, Emma spoke to him, the night he disappeared. He's was calling somewhere on Long Island.'

 
' Chances are he's dead.'

 
 'What makes you so sure?'

 
 'If Carla didn't get to him, somebody else would have finished the job.'

' Like who?'

 
 'Bethany maybe hiding out in a small Atlantic town, but she's not afraid to defend herself if pushed.'
​
Elaina stands and starts walking towards her car.Eric jumps up and hurries after her.


 
 'Where are you going?' Eric worries.

 
 'I need to inform Emma,' Elaina insists.
​
 Eric blocks Elaina's path.


 
 'Totally out of the question, you tell her nothing.'

 
 'She already suspects something is not right. She will take it upon herself to find the truth.'

 
 'Why, because you told her the disk concerned Harry? Jesus Elaina that was stupid.'

 
 'Christopher was her husband, she needed to know, what he could have been involved in.'

 
 'Well, lets hope the under surveillance town of Francis Bay catches onto to Bethany's antics, before she acts. Because she will. Joe Hayes mission failed, so I had no choice but to turn to you again.'

 
 'Joe Hayes, the one that held Bethany and Dominic King hostage in the house?'

 
 'He was working for me to snuff the truth out of Bethany and Dominic. But of course he died'

 
 'Wait a minute, what does Dominic have to do with Bethany and her sister?'

​
Eric pauses momentarily

 


 'Bethany and Dominic orchestrated the death Of Jeff. They tracked him to Caribbean via a computer, after Carla's last hideout was snuffed out.'
​

 Elaina puts her hands on her head in disbelief.

 


 'What?! What kind of people.....?'

​
Eric puts both his hands on Elaina's to keep her calm.

' I'm sorry both yourself and Abraham got dragged into this. But, I suggest you tell Emma to not pursue her intensions....it could backfire.'

 
 'What do you want me to do?'


 
 'Now, I here Harry had an ordeal recently and has lost his memory. It's best it stays that way for a while. Did you know Harry and Tina adopted a son?'

 
 'Yeah, he was called Jack. Why?'

'I'm about to give you a double shocker, which you must keep to yourself.'

 

Tuesday

4th February

2003

Francis Bay, Long Island.

 Rebecca takes of Harry, while Bethany goes to work at the bank. Benjamin is driving himself crazy, keeping himself out of the spotlight.

 Deloris grabs some fresh air and notices, Benjamin hasn't turned out of work and purposely makes it aware to authorities, by speaking out loud to locals. She will never forgive Benjamin for the humiliation she suffered at the Palace Hotel in New York and adds that he is a weird character.

 The FBI show up at the cabin house, where Benjamin fakes being ill and makes a good job of it. The Feds say that some locals have referred to him as weird, but Benjamin assures them it's just somebody wanting to get back at him, because he cheated with another man. Benjamin insists he has nothing to hide and even prepares to allow the agents for a search of his cabin.

 With the rumours circling bay, that the strange occurrences happened, when the Wilsons moved to town, the previous summer and may hold the key to all the heartache, such as missing persons, Vampire attacks and murder.

 Bethany goes to the bathroom and looks in her handbag. It contains $25,000 and the Cosmos necklace which was once, Joe Hayes.

 Harry is sat watching TV, when Rebecca enters and he asks her, what was the turning point in which she decided to find him. Rebecca claims it was always her dream to find her real parents and even though it was heartbreak when Tina died, she found perfect comfort in find her biological father. Harry reminds Rebecca that there is still so much memory lost and she assures him, that it will return one day. Harry shocks Rebecca, by suggesting going to Gloria Lang's burial, as it wasn't entirely her fault, the way things happened. Rebecca reluctantly agrees to take him.

 Midday, Bethany is at lunch and meets with Officer Ingram near the woodlands and laughs that Rebecca couldn't come herself. and had her step mother do her dirty work Little does Bethany know, that she has been followed by an agent.
 'I actually offered to take her place,' Bethany said, taking out cash. 'I have twenty five thousand dollars in cash, for you to stop this pursuit.'
 'You are desperate,' Ingram chuckles. 'Or she is?'
 'Why is it so important to you, to blackmail my step daughter?'
 'My partners and colleagues died, because of her protecting that Linda Perry. If she had the nerve to come forward and not be blinded by love, a lot of innocent people would still be alive!'
 'So what has stopped you from making an arrest? Are you just as cunning as Ted Sumner was?'
 'Ted Sumner and myself did have history. Not like that, but we did have a few tricks up our sleeves. But, your definition of cunning, you could look at yourselves in the mirror. Did Harry know about Rebecca and that monster before his amnesia?'
 Bethany does not reply. Ingram takes the hint.
 'I guess not. It will take more than twenty five grand to keep me out of the picture,' Ingram threats.
 'Then I guess, you've left me with no choice,' Bethany acknowledges.
 Bethany takes out the Cosmos necklace. And begins to hypnotize Ingram with it, just as an agent sneaks up behind her and points a gun at her. Bethany shows no fear and orders Ingram to kill the agent under hypnosis. Ingram draws his firearm, but the agents shoots the Cop on sight. Distracted by gunning down Ingram, Bethany uses the necklace on the agent and he is forced to shoot himself. Bethany calmly reclaims the money and places it inside her handbag with the necklace and leaves the scene.

 Bethany returns to the bank like nothing happened, with a hamburger. But, in order for the full surveillance to leave along with the FBI, she has to come up with a much tactical plan.

 Hugo and Beagle head into the Kings Café and meet with Dominic and Deloris.

Central Park Manhattan, NYC.

Elaina desperately tries to convince Emma, to not let it be her own personal investigation into Christopher's disappearance. Emma suspects Elaina is hiding something. Elaina denies this, but warns that getting in too deep, could have her meet a fate, that could be fatal. Emma reluctantly agree to let it lie, but is Emma really going to listen to Elaina's advise? It is really advise from Eric Lance to Elaina, that has made her try to convince Emma.

Francis Bay, Long Island.

Hugo and Beagle ask Deloris about the Wilsons and she informs them, that she keeps her distance as she refers to them as dysfunctional and fears that they have brought a curse to the Bay since they moved in the previous year. Dominic suspects they're after something and orders them to leave. Deloris is shocked by her fathers outburst. Hugo and Beagle then exit and little do Dominic and Deloris know, that Hugo and Beagle recorded the whole thing. They then meet up with a local officer, who tells them about Linda Perry, who attacked the Wilson's at their home on Halloween night and the death of a close relative to Rebecca. The police suspect, that somebody may have it in for the Wilsons and could be trying to implicate them in crimes. Their closest suspicions lay with the Cosmos, who kidnapped Harry's son back in 1999. Bethany watches the conversation from the bank, but cannot hear what is said, yet finds the two men familiar.

 Benjamin is sat in his room, watching TV, when a news bulletin comes on, announcing the death of Ingram and a federal agent and the finding of a body, about 30 miles west of the Bay. The body is yet to be identified. Benjamin calls his mother, who demands he sit tight.

New York Times.

Elaina makes a brief visit to her office, where she watches the unveiling of a body on Long Island and the continuing surveillance on Long Island. A camera shot catches Hugo and Beagle in frame and it suddenly hits Elaina who bugged her phone. She is livid. But, Elaina must wait instruction from underground Eric.

Francis Bay

Hugo and Beagle fear they may have been caught out, by a camera crew. They conjure up, their next move. Deloris wants answers on Dominic's outburst. He says he is sick and tired of the Wilsons being referred to and wants things back as they were. News suddenly filters through on the recovered body. Dominic and Deloris fear it is Charlotte.

 It's early evening, and Bethany leaves work, where she accidently bumps into Hugo and Beagle extra disguised and she loses the Cosmos necklace from her handbag, without realizing. Bethany makes herself scarce and the two fake tourists capitalize on her mistake and take the necklace.

 Harry, Emma and Rebecca are watching the news, as tensions in the household raise, as well as in the cabin, where Benjamin is and the identity of the body is revealed. Before Bethany heads in the house, she checks in on her fearful son.

 'What's the matter?' Bethany asks.
'Mom, they found the body,' Benjamin shakes.
 'Who's body?'
 'Steven Whittakers.'

 

Metropolitan Medical Hospital, Manhattan, NYC.

Elaina grasps her comatose husband. She is aware that the Cosmos, who is actually Bethany's sister and partially Bethany herself are the reason Abraham's life hangs by a thread. Elaina wants to exact her revenge, but Eric Lance has warned of a retaliation if the Cosmos aka Carla Morrison, or Bethany get the heads up. Already Emma could soon become stubborn and ignore Elaina's pleas and Emma lives under the same roof as Bethany. But, with Francis Bay under surveillance and a body discovered, Bethany's time as a free woman is at a limit. But can she still worm her way out of it?


Francis Bay, Long Island.

Hugo and Beagle prepare to make their move. Even though the Wilson residence is under surveillance, they use their knowledge of what they've discovered. Plus, they need to find the disk, which is possibly in the house........But it's not. They decide to make their way to the house on foot.

 Meanwhile, the two FBI Agents that previously questioned Harry over the whereabouts of Steven Whittaker, after the escaped from prison, find it odd that he was discovered, only about 50 miles west of the Bay. Rebecca finds Ingram's abrupt death rather odd. Bethany tells Rebecca she has nothing to worry about. Rebecca starts to wonder where Emma's got to. There is a knock at the door. It's Dominic, he's come to see how Harry is, considering he has cold feelings against both Rebecca and Bethany for different reasons. Bethany warns he still has no memory, before his assault by Gloria Lang. The two ladies also pray for Charlottes return, even though Bethany already is aware of Charlotte's brutal fate. Dominic sits with Harry and Dominic speaks of their days at High School and how Harry managed to save the school football team at the end of school year. Dominic doesn't mention Harry's parents unsolved murder. With Bethany not in the room, Dominic questions Harry's memory of his supposed late wife, Tina? Outside Bethany has earwigged what Dominic has questioned and she feels uneasy with his presence and it makes her pissed off even more.

 Hugo and Beagle approach the Wilson House and look out for camera's. They are then made to hide for over by Dominic and Bethany, who get in a silent argument outside and they soon learn of some of Dominic's home truths, along with the hostage situation by Joe Hayes and Ted Somner, not to forget to mention Jeff's murder. Dominic warns Bethany not to cross him. Bethany is worried at being caught off guard under surveillance. Little does she know. Dominic jumps in his car and drives home to the café apartment. Beagle hands Hugo a gun and head into town and hold Dominic in his place, while he uses the necklace on Bethany. He says it's their chance to be famous. Hugo heads to town on foot. Unnoticed on the outside of the Lighthouse, the obscured identity of the Francis Bay Killer, Benita, watches on. Beagle knocks on the Wilson door. The door opens with the camera still on Beagle.

 About twenty Minutes after the infiltration of Beagle, the surveillance team of the police and Feds watching CCTV from the Wilson's decide to act.

 It's around 11pm, Beagle reaches the harbour of the Bay and looks across to the Café of the Kings. He makes his way across the empty road, when a tall shadowy female figure is stood to his right. It's the shadow of Benita with her machete in hand ready to bump off her next victim. Beagle in panic makes a run for it, but accidently trips into the harbour. The murderer follows his move, as he attempts to swim for his life. He cries out for help, but for a town supposed to be protected by the Government and local police, nothing of his pleas are heard. He reaches a ladder and looks again to his right. Benita on shore is nowhere to be seen and he looks up too nervous to climb, in case she is waiting. A few moments go by and a strange ripple in the water, occurs by him. Suddenly, he is dragged under by a the leather gloved hand of the Francis Bay Killer and drowned.

 The next morning CNN report of a strange phenomenon that had affected most of the World's population. They report an unknown TV Station hypnotized Billions at a time they don't recall and wiping several hours, days or months of a certain memory away in which they can't put a finger on what it was. Scientists put this down to an asteroid avoiding the Earth by a few Hundred Thousand Miles, that may have had a similar affect, of the one that struck the Earth in 1901, that started the Meta Human cases.

 

 Metropolitan Medical Hospital, Manhattan, NYC.

 

Elaina has spent the whole night in the hospital by Abraham's side and learns of the Phenomenon that has rocked the Worlds population. Elaina knows for a fact she didn't watch any TV the night before, when a nurse refers to current events, after waking up standing watching a scrambled TV station in the Hospital hallway.

Francis Bay, Long Island. The FBI and surveillance have vacated the Bay. The local police also have no memory of previous events. Plus, Rebecca has no memory of the previous day. Like Elaina, Emma did not have the experience of the unexplained hypnotism. Bethany is rather pleased with herself and finds herself in possession of the Cosmos necklace again. How is that the Federal government have closed their case on the strange happening in Francis Bay? And that Bethany has got the Cosmos necklace back in her possession? Was Bethany behind the TV channel hypnotism? If so, how on Earth did her plan come to together?

 At an unknown residence, Eric Lance makes it aware to two unknown females that they were lucky, that they were the few victims that didn't get hypnotized by the phenomenon. He immediately suspects Bethany or Carla saved their own asses. He warns the unknown females that the worst is not over and vows to stick by his word. He is their protector and will hopefully continue to have the alliance of Elaina. He then turns and Jack Wilson appears from the hallway, holding a glass of orange juice. 

 

Dominic pursues the police into the investigation of Charlottes disappearance and why the FBI left Long Island. The local Sheriff is completely unaware that surveillance was in place in the Bay. Dominic soon realizes, that the strange phenomenon on the news, is down to Bethany. Something occurred around the time, Hugo was bumped off by Benita, the Francis Bay killer, which led to surveillance being withdrawn from the area. A few local residence, have no memory of the bad happenings in the small fishing, and a few are alarmed at the attitude change to keeping Francis Bay safe. As far as the local enforcement are concerned, there is no danger. When Emma overhears this entering the police station, to query this also, she is also met by the cold attitude of the police. Also, what has happened into the investigation of Steven Whittaker's body being discovered? Ingram's death has been passed up, as a depressed cop gone psycho on an FBI agent. Dominic starts to feel scared and remembers Joe Hayes necklace was taken by Bethany after the hostage situation at the Wilsons weeks earlier. Deloris is frustrated and Dominic was shocked to be told to make another statement into Charlottes disappearance. Deloris is hurt by recent events. Emma suspects the phenomenon that caused the many to have memory wipes, could have been started locally in Francis Bay. Dominic sits on his bed and stares at a photo of Charlotte.

 Dominic sits at the kitchen table looking at Charlottes picture. How long will he let Bethany stay in control. Will he sacrifice his freedom to ruin Bethany's? Only time will tell.

 


Metropolitan Hospital, Manhattan
NYC
​

 Early evening, Emma parks her car up, when she spots Elaina talking on the phone aggressively and reluctantly agrees to another meeting. Elaina tells the caller, she will be an hour. Emma jumps in her car and manages to stay on Elaina's tail the whole duration of the journey. In a secluded district, Elaina enters a derelict house and meets with a well disguised Eric Lance, who hands her a bag. It's quite heavy.
 'What's in here?' Elaina asks.

 'It's a laptop, with a hard drive that was used for only the Cosmos,' Eric informs.
 'How did you find one of these?'
 'It wasn't easy, but I had my sources. A certain operative that one worked for the organization, was rather persuasive. Don't worry I didn't kill e'm. I bargained with them. Secondly, you need to get that disk back?'
 'And you think Bethany has got it?'
 'Now, I wouldn't ask you to risk you ass for that disk, but I think you will act more cautiously than the others that have failed. I'm glad to see you weren't fazed by that so-called Phenomenon.'
 'Bethany had something to do with that didn't she?' Elaina figures. 'How?'
 'She had to get rid of the surveillance somehow,' Eric explains. 'Memory wipe with the help hand of the 'Moon And The Stars.'
 'What's that?' 'Let's just say, it's a souvenir that project Gemini created and reminded the Cosmos of it's power. It's power was graciously manipulated by Bethany, last night by the looks of things.'
 'Hypnotism.'
 'Right.'
 'I'm up for the challenge.'
 'It's a big risk Elaina. But, this is important.'
 'Just so you know, I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing it for my husband and son. And plus, I owe Harry and Jeff.'
 'I understand, but again, you can't tell Emma. The information on that disk is vital to putting Bethany and her sister in jail, if not given the death penalty.'
 'If there is such criminal information on that disk, why has Bethany kept it?'
 'Because at first, I think Carla was unaware that disk existed until just prior to Jeff Wilson's death. I suspect somebody tried to set her up and failed. It seems Bethany is hoping to find a laptop like the one that she lost and see what secrets are on it....Oh and Elaina, it's important you retrieve that necklace for us to succeed. It's keeping her in a safe haven.'
 After exchanging brief conversation, Elaina and Eric agree to remain in contact. Emma has overheard everything. She now knows the truth about Bethany's darkness. Emma fears she had something to do with Christopher's disappearance, as well as Charlottes. What are Emma's intentions?

 A few days pass, and the Wilsons attend the memorial of Gloria Lang. Even though Harry was kidnapped by her, he doesn't bare any grudges. Emma gives Bethany an aggressive stare, whom doesn't notice.

 Harry's injuries are slowly healing, yet still needs assistance. His still has no memory of his life prior to his kidnap. Yet, a few new nights later, he has a brief nightmare of two events he doesn't recall.

 Harry begins therapy on his injured arm and leg and seems to be making quick progress. He is also advised to have a brain scan, seeing as Harry's memories are still at a blank, despite, dreams he can't understand.

 Bethany notices Emma is a little distant when in conversation. Rebecca suspects that Emma is still worried about Christopher. Rebecca tells Emma that Christopher may never want to be found, unless something bad has happened to him. Emma knows Bethany is behind almost everything that has occurred in the Bay in recent months, but does not voice this to Rebecca.


Meanwhile in Manhattan, Elaina stays vigil at Abrahams side and considers taking on Eric's mission. There is not much time.

 

 

 Francis Bay, Long Island.​


 Dominic is in two minds on whether to discard the deceased Joe Hayes evidence, or keep it. It incriminates Bethany and himself. Will Dominic crack or keep quiet for the sake of Deloris? Charlottes disappearance is still a mystery to the Kings, although Dominic suspects Bethany is behind it.


The Worldwide Phenomenon that occurred five days earlier, is still being discussed on talk shows and the news and people have demanded an explanation. World leaders cannot put a finger on what it was. Rebecca says that her mind has gone blank on certain things, following the phenomenon and Bethany tests her and mentions the names of Linda Perry and Clara Barton. Rebecca doesn't have a clue who they are and Rebecca questions Bethany why she asks? Bethany denies any reason. Emma overhears and wonders why Bethany would mention the two in question, who are both deceased?


In the early hours of Sunday Morning, Harry again begins to dream.

Francis Bay, Long Island​

 

 

 Rebecca drives Harry to the hospital for his C.A.T. Scan to make sure there is no long term damage to his brain, leaving Emma alone at home. Emma starts searching the house, to see if the disk is hidden anywhere. She begins to search the basement, and behind the furnace where the disk was originally hidden, but it's not there. Then she searches the attic. Nothing. Emma then decides to make a drastic move and carefully searches through Harry and Bethany's bedroom, without trying to leave evidence to show she's been snooping. The necklace isn't her only priority. The Cosmos necklace that was once Joe Hayes, is required to stop Bethany using it to her advantage. Emma checks the closets, then under the bed. Suddenly, the front door slams and voices are heard. Emma hesitates. Before she can move footsteps are heard coming up the stairs. It's Bethany and Benjamin. Emma stays hidden under the bed, as Bethany and Benjamin enter the bedroom.

 'Rebecca clearly doesn't remember anything, about her Vampire Lover, Linda and her Real Mother, Clara," Bethany speaks.

 'You certainly do match Aunt Carla's instincts,' Benjamin suggests. 'A Master Planner at work. You've even managed to fool the entire planet.'

 'We did. The greatest mother and son team ever. If there is one thing I can thank my sister for, is bringing my handsome boy back into my life.'

 Bethany puts her hand around her sons waist, as Emma has just discovered that Bethany and Benjamin are mother and son.

 'We can't can't keep doing this,' Benjamin voices.

 'What, showing how much we love each other?' Bethany thinks.

 'No, risking everything for our future, like......

 'Murder?'

 'Right.'

 'They gave us no choice, ' Bethany whispers.

 'Unfortunately for me, Benita doesn't have a choice.'

 'As long as our enemies are out there, you're right she doesn't. But, as long as she has our backs, we have hers.'

 'Then there won't be any mistakes.'

 Benjamin sits on the bed, feeling strained and Bethany sits beside her son and strokes his hair. She sees how down he is.

 'You miss him don't you?' Bethany bluntly says

 'Who?' Benjamin acknowledges.

 'Christopher.'

 'Yeah, I do. It was the hardest thing I had to do. I loved him.'

 'You'll get over it, you got me.'

 'I know that, you never make me forget.'

 Bethany then strokes her sons biceps and starts kissing his face, as begins to advance on him. Emma is hearing everything under the bed. There is no escape yet. Bethany then grasps Benjamin's legs.

 'Remember on your twenty first birthday, I gave you a special present?' Bethany grins.

 'Mom, it's not healthy. It's wrong,' Benjamin reminds his mother.

 'I like it wrong.'

The camera pans down to Emma hiding under the bed, trying not to show suspicion, she is hiding. She is sick to the stomach after hearing what is going on and what's being referenced and it appears she will have to endure hearing an incestous act performing above her head (talk about Norman and Norma Bates). Also now Emma is aware that Linda Perry was in a relationship with Rebecca. Emma is yet, confused by Bethany's reference to Clara Barton being Rebecca's mother, as in Emma's mind, Tina was Rebecca's mother.

 

 

 Long Island Motel​

 

 Elaina looks at a photograph of herself, Abraham and Andy together. Elaina checks into the Motel which is just twenty miles away from Francis Bay. It appears she is beginning the mission, that Eric Lance set her out for.

 Francis Bay Long Island.
​

 


 Rebecca arrives home later with Harry to find Emma acting suspiciously and rather nervous, when she attempts to pour a glasses of water and drops it after shaking profusely. Rebecca puts her arm on Emma's shoulder, but she brushes her away and walks out the room. Rebecca is very concerned. Emma feels uncomfortable being within ten feet of Bethany, after discovering her true nature, not just because she is a psychopath, but also having the sort of relationship that she shouldn't with Benjamin. Emma has no proof yet, to show for her discovery. But, it seems she will soon have it out with Rebecca concerning possibly both Linda and Clara. That's if Rebecca remembers Linda and Clara, considering Rebecca was hypnotized, along with millions of other, nights earlier.

 Dominic storms the police station and demands to know, why the investigation into Charlottes disappearance has gone sour? It gets to a point where he is being advised not to cross the line or he will be arrested and that they assure him, they will look into the matter.

 Deloris tries to come to terms with recent events and she secretly sneaks a bottle of whisky into her coat and gets drunk out, when an unexpected male she hates, comes to her aid, when she falls over.....Benjamin.

 


Tuesday
11th February
2003
​

 


 Emma awakes next to Rebecca feeling betrayed, as well as confused and angry to discover that Rebecca had a sexual relationship with Linda Perry, who not just had a Vampire ability, but who was also a missing operative from the Cosmos Organization. Emma thought Rebecca was the one she could trust.

 Deloris awakes in Benjamin's bed with a hangover, but Benjamin had the sofa. Is Benjamin trying to get back into Deloris good books? Benjamin said he found her spark near the harbour and brought her to his cabin, as he didn't want her father to find her like she was. Deloris reluctantly thanks Benjamin for his gesture and tries to leave quietly, when Bethany spots her on her way out. Deloris assures Bethany it's not what she thinks and Bethany gives her a ride home to the café.

 As Benjamin heads out, Elaina is hidden in a corner, watching the house and spots Emma exiting, who suddenly bursts out crying. This grabs Elaina's attention and she immediately suspects something big has occurred.

 Dominic is horrified by Deloris state and tells her to get a bath. When Deloris heads into the apartment, Dominic grabs Bethany by the hair and drags her into the alley and accuses her of being responsible for Charlottes disappearance and if and when he finds out that Bethany did anything to her, he will kill her. Dominic heads inside and tries to come to grip with things and takes another trip down memory lane.

19th May ​


1979 ​


Hex-Ville, NY State

Dominic meets up with Charlotte in secret, as they continue to date.

Albert Kray is caught and arrested for stealing vehicles, illegally changing number plates, spraying them, changing the engines and selling them for a profit. However, Hank is not even suspected, and if he wants it to stay that way, he must remain on Garcia's payroll.

Jonathan continues to conceal money just within the confines of the Wilson Residence following another Meta Human discovery.

Barry is met by Romano Crocetti and threatens him to give him all the details on everything he knows on William Mcquire and his connections to project 'Gemini.' Barry wants to know why? Romano insists he wants to get even with his father, after discovering Garcia had his mother murdered.

Albert Kray is thrown in a prison cell and denied bail. He is furious to learn of a tip off and immediately suspects Hank. Kray knows he cannot mention the Mafia paying him to do crimes, otherwise he may never live to get to court. Albert thinks whoever called the police, witnessed him committing the crime.

Word gets around town of Albert's arrest and everybody is shocked to find that their once trusted local law enforcer would start a career in Grand Theft Auto.

Hank and Jeff come face to face again and Hank accuses Jeff of being the tip off and that he did no such thing. Jeff says if he was going to tip the police off, Hank would be in jail too.

Otto Cole visits Kray in jail and that bail stand at $250,000 and there is no way nobody can come up with that sort of money. Albert whispers that Mrs Robinson is committing sex crimes with students at Hex-Ville High and has blackmailed her to give Bethany a decent graduation. Despite him being incarcerated, he wants Otto to continue in his place and to keep him updated with the Crocetti's and Wilsons.

Billy has a meeting with Johnson Senior and questions him on who pulled the plug on Kray? Johnson insists he doesn't have a clue, but it could be a number of sources. Johnson makes himself scarce and William is then face to face with Romano. Romano decides to make a deal, that could work for many an destroy many. What is Romano up to?

The Hex-Ville Terriers narrowly lose, but in order to have the last laugh, they need to win the last game of the season and Harry cannot see it happening. Tina's words of comfort are some consolation.

Greg feels he's not as close to his twin as he used to be and Johnson Junior asks him if he wants to get drunk? At first Greg tells him to go f**k himself, but after some persuasion, Greg gets off his face again. 

 Bethany and Billy see each other on the sidewalk, but completely blank one another when they walk on by.

 Harry and Hank come face to face again.
 'Oh look, the asshole that stole my girl,' Hank groans.
 'I didn't steal Tina away from you, she walked away,' Harry reminds him.
 'Now, I known why.'
 'Why, can't you move on Hank?'
 'Because I wanna know why, Billy Mcquire can give you the time of day, considering his feud with your father and his dislike of your brother?'
 'Just as well, Jeff has decided to do an honest living,' Harry replies. 'Have you considered it?'
 'It's kind of hard, when you're caught between the law and the Mafia,' Hank adds. 'Jeff is lucky, he got out when he could.'
 'Oh dear, you are in a pickle aren't you?'
 'Say, uh, you wouldn't happen to know who pulled the squeeze on Albert Kray would you?'
 'I've got more important things in my life, than to worry about Krays Disloyalty to Hex-Ville. Like be in serious relationship.'
 Hank shakes his head sarcastically laughing, taking the hint.
 'You couldn't just wait to rub that in could you Wilson?' Hank seethes. 'I loved her.'
 'Well, I guess that will teach you a lesson for trying to kill me in the School shower room, a few weeks ago,' Harry counters.
 'If I was going to kill you, angel boy, I would have done a better job. I still may get my revenge yet.'
 'Not surprising you would threaten me.'
 'Threats is not my style Harry, I stick to my word, Harry......Tell Tina I said hello.

 Greg asks Tina if she'd like to go up and watch a movie? Tina declines his offer as she and Harry are doing homework together. Greg tells her they can do homework together. Tina says she wants personal time with Harry also. Feeling rejected, Greg goes to see Johnson Jr.

 Late night, Bethany is sat in her room between homework and watching the 1977 movie 'The Car'

 ('Wade I think I hear the engine of that damn car. Wade it sounds so weird. Wade I'm scared, no I promise you I won't go out, just tell me what to do baby, I-I Oh......'
 The car drives towards Laurens front room, with it's glaring headlights and it's demonic honk. Lauren screams, as the car crashes through her home and brings the roof down on her killing her. The car speeds off in to the distance).

 Bethany looks at a newspaper headline 'LOCAL OFFICER ARRESTED FOR GTA CONSPIRACY.' Bethany smirks.


 

 Tuesday
 11th February
 2003
Francis Bay, Long Island.
​

 

 Bethany has in her possession an article based on Albert Kray's release and suspects that he had gone under a different name and is protected by powerful people and is in hiding across the globe somewhere. She has waited twenty four years for revenge. Benjamin tells her, he will get what is coming to him and that his death won't be in peace.

 Elaina then surprises the Wilsons, that evening and they wonder why she has come all this way, considering Abraham is in a coma? Elaina lies and says that she needed a change of scenery and that Abraham wouldn't want her to skulk around and she also asks if it is possible to see Harry? Emma suspects Elaina is up to something. Unbeknown to the residents, Elaina has a hidden camera in her bag, scanning the house.

 On her way back to the Motel, Elaina is spotted by Dominic King and asks her if she'd like a coffee? Elaina accepts and uses it to her advantage to scour the Kings apartment and café with her secret camera. Dominic tells her how difficult it has been since Charlottes disappearance and that he sometimes blames himself, because he feels he hadn't assured Charlotte enough, that it wasn't her fault their son died eight years earlier.

 When Elaina exits the Café, she is watched in the distance by Emma.

 Bethany starts to wonder where her front door keys have disappeared to and thought she left them on the fireplace.

 

 

Wednesday
12th February
2003
Wilson Residence, Francis Bay, Long Island.
​

 

 It's 2:17 a.m., in the morning, the front door is unlocked and the jar holder, is unhooked. Elaina enters the house and she places a flower inside a vase, a camera attached, now facing vertical up. She has an earpiece, in which it appears she is talking to someone. From a secret location, Eric Lance watches the surveillance of the Wilson Staircase and speaks to Elaina and warns her, that it only takes one slip up and game over. Elaina uses the previous camera's captures and installs cameras inside places, where they will unlikely be discovered. She also conceals one in the basement. It's a chance to incriminate Bethany once and for all. It's took a nerve racking forty minutes and Elaina manages to leave the downstairs unscathed. Elaina discards Bethany's keys in the kitchen and takes the flower camera with her before she leaves. Elaina sneaks half a mile to her car, but from the bedroom window, Emma watches her escape.

 At the Motel, Elaina continues to talk to Eric via a computer, that used to be Cosmos technology. Eric tells her not to worry about Dominic King and that Bethany under his observation will be enough at the moment.

 By Dawn, Bethany spots the front door keys on the kitchen table and seems so sure she never left them there. Elaina suspects Elaina did something in the house and thinks it has something to do with a mission involving exposing Bethany. Emma asks Rebecca if she'd like to go for a drive, just the two of them? Rebecca accepts.

 Upstairs a still recovering, yet still amnesic Harry is dreaming.

 

 Harry cradling his dying mother in the Summer Of '79' ('Murder Most Horrid'- Episode Not Yet Shown).
 Harry making love to Carla in the late 1980's
 Tina walking down the Aisle with her father and twin brother giving her away (Season 1- 'A Curse Down The Aisle')
 Harry at Jeff's grave (Final Season - Some Leave Some Stay)
 From his P.O.V. a Psychiatrist assures him, he will make the pain go away.
​

 

 Harry awakes again feeling uncomfortable. Harry calls down and asks Bethany if she can fetch him a glass of water? Bethany calls she will, as Eric spies on her from over 200 miles away. An unknown person, enters the room and Eric spins round.
 'Are you ready for to take your front seat?' Eric asks the unknown person.

 Emma and Rebecca take a stroll on the beach, south of Francis Bay. Rebecca attempts to hold Emma's hand, but she brushes it off. Rebecca begins to sense something is wrong. Emma looks out to sea.
 'Do you love me Rebecca?' Emma surprisingly asks.
 'Of course I do, what brought this on?' Rebecca frowns.
 ' Lot's of things I guess.This is where she died, wasn't it?' Emma bluntly speaks.
 'Who?' Rebecca frowns.
 'Your girlfriend.'
 'I've only had one girlfriend, that's you.'
'Are you sure? If you want I can refresh your memory for you, seeing as Bethany wiped it out, with a necklace that everyone is looking for.'
 'Necklace?'
 Emma takes out a picture of Linda Perry from an article and shows it to Rebecca. Rebecca begins to get drawn into the picture.
 'Now do you recognize your so called lover, that caused a bloodshed in this once peaceful community?' Emma raises her voice, with tears filling her eyes. Rebecca takes time to review the article and photo. Suddenly, all her memories come flashing before her eyes.

 

 Her Foster sister Rebecca falling into a raging river (flashback to be shown again in 'Fathers Son, Mothers Daughter)
 Rebecca witnessing the terrorists attack in New York 2001 (Season 6 Finale)
 Rebecca and Emma sharing their first kiss (Season 7- 'Just Good Friends')
 Concealing Linda Perry's murders and falling in love with her
 Rebecca cradling her dying mother, Clara Barton ( Final Season- 'Inconvenient Mother')
 Linda Perry dying in Rebecca arms ( Final Season- 'Night 'Til Light')
 Bethany manipulating and seducing Rebecca and hypnotizing her
 

Rebecca remembers everything and feels ashamed. And Emma's heart is broken.... totally.
 'Truth hurts doesn't it?..............Abigail,' Emma reminds Rebecca. Rebecca is brought to tears also.
'Look, Emma I don't know where you're getting your information from, but it's all lies,' Rebecca denies.
 'Lies? You say it, like you really want to believe it yourself, but the truth is, you never really wanted us back together,' Emma figures.
 'I never really knew Linda Perry.'
 Emma slaps Rebecca across the face and is very much infuriated.
 'Don't lie to me!' Emma rages. 'Were you in love with a serial killer, with a Vampire ability?'
 Rebecca takes a moment from feeling the sting of Emma's wrath. Rebecca's guilt is clear, she can't deny anything any more.
 'Yes, Linda Perry and I were in love,' Rebecca admits.
 'How could you have the conscious to keep this a secret and get away with it?'
 'It's not like that.'
 'So you were eventually going to tell me in the near future, that it was just something that happened, spur of the moment?'
 'We had a connection?'
 'What a sexual connection or a killer connection?'
 'She couldn't help her actions. It was involuntary.'
 'Concealing the corpses of her victims, wasn't though was it, Abigail?' Emma hints.
 'Why do you keep calling me that?'
 'I think you know.'
 'I don't know what to say,' Rebecca cries.
 'Just say, that you been making a fool of me since the day we met. Remember, you walked up to me and blatantly told me you were Harry and Tina's daughter. When all the time, you've been, well I could say everything, but the truth. Just who the hell are you?'
 'I don't know anymore.'
 'I should have seen that one too, I thought there was more to Clara's determination to see you. That adopted Aunt thing, was just a cover up, because she was your real mother. She died, because..............'
 'Yeah say it. Say, that I didn't want her in my life. When I held her in my arms and she was dead, it was the worst moment in my life.' 'That's why you tried to kill yourself on New Years Eve, because you couldn't take anymore.'
 'I'm not a bad person Emma,' Rebecca claims.
 'I beg to differ, based on the two secrets you've been keeping, not just from me, but from the one person, who you've made love you unconditionally, Harry.' 'Why Rebecca just why?' Emma sighs with anxiety.
 'It's all complicated.'
 'I'll say. Complicated enough to sleep with your stepmother too. I feel like a f****** fool. I pushed my husband into the arms of another man, for us. And now, he's vanished off the face of the Earth, without a trace. And in the end, all my sacrifices were worth absolute Bullshit. I thought, we could be open with each other, be honest and totally committed, but I think you're just trying to force yourself to love me, because your true love is dead. You love me Rebecca, but you're not in love with me. You're just using that excuse, because Linda Perry is gone. You protected her enough, to be in love and I was just your consolation comfort.'
 'Is this going where I think it's going?'
 'Yeah it is. I'm sorry Rebecca............it's over between us. I can't feign being happy with you, with the dark history you've packaged. You've lost me Rebecca. The only consolation you'll have is your freedom.'
 'I don't care about that, I care about you.'
 'Then let me go.'
 Rebecca bursts into tears, Emma also.
 'I'm so sorry.'
 Emma puts her arms around Rebecca for a few moments and tightly hugs her.
 'I don't hate you Rebecca, it's just I can't see you anymore,' Emma gulps.
 Emma then slowly walks away and Rebecca calls out to her.
 'Emma please.'
 'Be careful of Bethany,' Emma warns. 'As much as I want to believe you love Harry, she's dangerous. Tread carefully.' Emma slowly paces herself away from Rebecca, who drops to her knees into the sand in tatters.

 Emma returns home alone. Harry is out of bed and sat on the swing with Bethany. The two notice Emma has returned home alone without Rebecca and Bethany goes check on her, leaving Harry still trying to get to grips with recent events. Bethany asks Emma, what is going on? Emma hesitates for a moment, feeling uncomfortable by Bethany's presences and informs her that herself and Rebecca are not working out and that it's best she move back to Manhattan. Bethany asks her why? Emma assures her, it's not her concern and leaves the house after packing. Emma jumps in her car and drives off out of Francis Bay, not before passing Rebecca on the way. Harry shows his concern for Rebecca and comforts her. Looking over Harry's shoulder, Rebecca stares at Bethany.

 Deloris goes and sees Benjamin at the Harbour and thanks him for looking after her, when she was a mess. Benjamin acts Mr Nice guy and suggests that even though, he was cruel for what he did at the Palace Hotel, that they can find some common ground and if Deloris needs to talk he's there for her. Deloris thanks him and heads back to the café. Benjamin turns to face the Atlantic and smirks to himself.

Elaina stares out of her office window, at the New York City Skyline, with the hope Abraham will pull through her Coma. It will be double success, if her mission for Eric Lance pays off, in trapping Bethany and eventually Dominic.

 

Francis Bay, Long Island.
​
Bethany asks why it didn't work out between her and Emma? Rebecca hesitates and Rebecca told Emma she didn't love her anymore. Rebecca takes in Emma's word from earlier and somehow, Emma has seen Bethany as dangerous, but Rebecca keeps this to herself. Bethany reminds Rebecca, she is always there for her. Bethany closes the bedroom door and Rebecca breaks down.

 The 1965 song 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling,' by 'The Righteous Brothers plays, between Emma's and Rebecca's after break up scenes. Also Benjamin grieving for Christopher, as he grasps a photograph of him.

During the closing moments of the song, P.O.V surveillance is seen within the darkness of the downstairs of the Wilsons.

Harry P.O.V. ​

 

 

 


Holy Shit. Another crazy dream. What does all this mean? It must be memories of my life, that I still can't remember. Jesus Christ, if it is some of it was really intense and scary. God I've got a headache. My leg still feels sore, I can barely move it a few inches. I don't think I should force myself out of bed just yet, my wheel chair is too far to reach. And here next to me is my wife, Bethany. She is nice. Wish I could remember her. Funny, she's not been in my dreams or nightmares, whatever you'd like to call them. I hate burdening her with my current situation. I know she's my wife, but it's a dranatic change for her, seeing me as someone who's forgotten her and my daughter. I feel shit for allowing this to happen in the first place, but I guess these things happen. As for Rebecca....well, I don't know, is she who she says she is, as Gloria Lang claimed she wasn't? Even so, Rebecca seems like a lost soul, that needs my support. Umph, oooh my head hurts just trying to grasp these events and trying to remember my life. Will I want to remember though, if it's gonna hurt? Just take it easy, take each day as it comes......Just one thing though, who is that Guy and Woman that keeps popping up in my dreams? The man in a suit and the gal in white in the cloud? What does he not want me to remember? Is the lady my Guardian Angel?....Enough Harry, too much speculation, just get a grip on things boy.

 

 

"Ow."

 

 

"You OK honey?" - Bethany

 

 

"Yeah, just a little tender that's all. Didn't mean to wake you."

 

 

"Here, have some asprin, will ease the pain. Wash it down."

 

 

"Thanks, that's better."

 

 

"I've gotta work half day today, Rebecca will take care of you this afternoon."

 

 

"I feel like a hospital patient. I'm sorry, I feel bad that you two have no time to yourselves."

 

 

"Harry, you almost died, you lost your memory. You won't be mobile for another few weeks yet. So don't excert yourself. You watch TV downstairs if you like."

 

 

"I need you to tell me something, it's about Rebecca."

 

 

"What about her?"

 

 

"It's something that Gloria Lang mentioned.....oh it's probably nothing."

 

 

"What did she say?"

 

 

"She said Rebecca has been pretending to be my daughter for a year and a half."

 

 

".......Really?"

 

 

"What is it?"

 

 

"Harry, Gloria Lang had Terminal Cancer , who's condition deteoriated so bad, it caused her to do this to you. She blew herself up and you were lucky to get out alive. If she went this far to hurt you or Rebecca, then whatever she said or claimed, was a complete lie. Rebecca loves you. She thinks the world of you. Have faith in her."

 

 

"Yeah, you're don't know what I was worrying myself for."

 

 

"Good. How 'bout some coffee?" - Bethany. EXITS BEDROOM.

 

 

Something is not right. I can feel it.

 Elaina and Andy get into the car and Elaina drives Andy to school. After she drops Andy to school, she spots Emma talking to a hood, and it appears they exhange something, attempting to be secretive. Emma is seen getting into her car and driving away. Elaina to follow Emma, but Emma's erratic driving, stops Elaina following her, but Elaina thinks she knows where Emma has gone.

 Elaina parks across from Emma's empty car and heads to the elevator and heads up to Emma's apartment.

 

 

Handbag Cam (Not always clear visiblity of characters, but clear Audio). ​

 


 Elaina knocks on Emma's door and calls out to her.

 

 "Emma I know you're in there, open up. I need to talk to you."- Elaina

 

Door sounds open.

 

 "What the f**k do you want?!" - Emma (aggressively).

 

 "Emma you a look a mess."

 

 "No shit, I've wondered why I've looked a like a Heritic everytime, I've looked in the mirror this week."

 

 "I haven't come here for an argument Emma."

 

 "Glad to hear it. You found your way, now you can find your way down."

 

 Elaina refuses to leave.

 

 "I'm here as a friend." - Elaina.

 

 "Yeah, where have I heard that one before?" - Emma.

 

 "Five minutes, that's all I ask."

 

 "Oh, by all means."

 

 Elaina enters Emma's apartment and sits at the kitchen table.

 

Handbag Cam ( feed facing Emma).

 

 Emma attempts to conceal a small quantity if drugs, but it sounds like Elaina has spotted them. Emma looks really high on drugs.

 

 "Say what you have to say and get out." - Emma.

 

 "Is that what I think is?" - Elaina.

 

 "What?"

 

 "Getting high on drugs won't solve anything."

 

 "What are you now my Fairy God Mother?"

 

 "I take it you and Rebecca have some problems?"

 

 "You don't miss a trick do you, that's why how you found me at my apartment or should I say, not so soon apartment. I'm gonna be homeless in less than fourty eight hours."

 

 Emma is seen taking out a bottle of whisky and pouring it into a shot glass and drinking it in one.

 

 "Oh Emma, I'm so sorry. That bad?"

 

 "What's bad, is that the people I have loved , have either died, lied or pretended to love and care. First I discover the man I thought was my father, was not, he bought me off drug addict.....hypocrite I know. Then he gets killed by bomb. The man I married turns out to be Bisexual and then vanishes off the face of the Earth and to add even more insult the girl who I thought loved me, used me as a consolation, to pine for a dead woman, who was once a Vampire....Oh and before I forget, I don't trust you either."

 

 "I'm your friend, you got to believe that."

 

 "So have you solved your case on Bethany yet?"

 

 "I'm working on it."

 

 "Well, I hope your evasive Eric Lance is keeping his nose clean. Because if I see him, he won't know what hit him."

 

Momentary silence

 

 "I know Chris missing is what this is all about. I pray he's some..........." - Elaina.

 

 "Elaina, he's f*****g dead! Bethany killed him!" - Emma

 

 "Like I said I'm working on it."

 

 Emma pours herself another drink. Elaina tries to prise the bottle away from her, but Emma quickly snatches it away.

 

 "How are you for cash?" - Elaina

 

 "I've still got two hundred and fifty grand in the bank, so I'll be just fine thank you. Unless you've got room at your place."- Emma.

 

 "I would, but I can't."

 

 "Of course, you got secrets at home."

 

 "I can't complicate things for Andy."

 

 "I know, Abraham and......I understand. I'll just drive about somewhere."

 

 "The state you're in?"

 

 "What's wrong with New York?"

 

 "You know what I mean."

 

 "I know what you meant. I'm beginning to think this was my destiny. From what I've learnt about myself and about the people in my life, this is how it was mean't to be."

 

 "You don't deserve this life."

 

 "Then lets do something about it. Tell me what you've planned. you can trust me."

 

 "Emma it's too dangerous."

 

 "You don't trust me."

 

 "Emma..........role back there. What did you mean Rebecca pining for a woman who was a Vampire? You don't mean that Linda Perry that disappeared after the Wall Street incident over two years ago?"

 

 "That's right."

 

 "Does she know you know?"

 

 "Of course she does, otherwise I wouldn't be in this State."

 


 "So Rebecca's in on it too."

 

 "Not nescessarily. What Rebecca needs is years of psychotherapy, Bethany needs the Gas Chamber."- Emma

 

 "Why the leniency?" - Elaina

 

 "Clara Barton's death was no accident I suspect. And she had a big part to play in Rebecca's life. And I mean a big part."

 

 "What do you mean?"

 

 "There's something else I haven't told you about Rebecca."

 

 "What's that?"

 

 "You tell me what you're planning to bring Bethany down and I'll tell you."

 

 "You know I can't."

 

 "That's what I thought. Don't let the door hit you on the way out FRIEND."

Harry is watching the 1970 Movie 'Love Story' with Ryan O' Neal and Ali Macgraw. He is watching the Ice Skating Scene set in Central Park, where Jenny Barrett is watching Oliver Barrett Skate alone, with Francis Lai's Sountrack playing in Harmony.

During the Harmony of the Movie Scene and the split screen, a young Harry Wilson, aged about ten is seen ice skating from the Point Of View of someone unknown in an ice rink.

Rebecca is seen entering the room with a coffee.

 

 "You're totally engrossed in this movie aren't you?" 'Rebecca

 

 

Harry P.O.V.​

 


 "Well, it's OK.....kinda mushy though."

 

"I remember watching this when I was little. Broke my heart when Ali Macgraw died at the end......oops sorry did I give you a spoiler there?"

 

 "You know what, I probably have seen this film, but of course I can't remember, much. There is something familiar about this though."

 

"Yeah, I guess that would be Mom passing away year before last."

 

 "Not that, the ice skating. I seem to remember taking part in ice skating with someone. Sort of like when I was a kid, but it's a blur."

 

"How did it feel?"

 

 "Very comforting. Wish I could remember it all."

 

(Rebecca glances at her watch).

 


"How 'bout we try get that leg and arm into rythm again?"- Rebecca.

 

 "I don't think that's such a good idea sweetheart. The Doctor said I should be resting for a couple weeks more and Bethany will hit the roof."

 

"If the shit does hit the roof, she can hit it with me."

 

 Hold on maybe Rebecca is right. I can't let my memories fall into the ground literately. It could be push I need to find my true self. And come to think of it, maybe this could be my chance to get Rebecca to open up to me. I can see she is desperate for my approval. She's kinda tense too. She could be hiding something, I'm certain. I'm no psychologist, but it's written all over her face.

 

 "OK, you've twisted my arm, when?"

 

"Now."

 

 Oh shit, here we go.

 

"Now?"

 

"Sure it's only eleven o clock, we'll be in Central Park between one and two and we'll be back before it gets dark. C'mon we'll take some painkillers and be sure to wrap up warm."

 

 "They may not let me go on the rink, the way I am. If anything happens to me, they could get into trouble."

 

"Don't fret. I'll pay them double or treble to get you on there. As long as you hold on tight, I won't let go."

 

 "Promise?"

 

"Scouts honor."

Elaina's Handbag Cam​

 

 


 Elaina has entered the Elevator in the NY Times building and is headed up to her office. She enters his office and a male voice can be heard.

 

 "Hello Mrs Carlisle. I'm detective Ryland of the thirteenth precinct, I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions?"

 

The handbag is placed under Elaina's desk and only a pair of black shoes is seen from the lens, as well as Elaina's and Rylands conversation.

 


 "Does this have to do with my husbands attack?" - Elaina.

 

 "Sort of. The day after your husband was put into a coma, you were questioned by to senior officers from my station. Hugo and Beagle."

 

 "Yeah, so."

 

 "So, I am to understand you made a complaint against them."

 

 "Yeah they bugged my phone, because they thought I was covering something."

 

 "Well, aren't you?"

 

 "Look my husband is on death's door and clinging onto life and your coming in here throwing horrid accusations at me. If they think they've found any distrust in me, then why haven't they come to ask me themselves?"

 

 "They're missing."

 

 "So, what does that have to with me? Maybe they were killed in the line of duty by a mugger or maybe they ran off to Hawaii together."

 

 "Or maybe you know more than you're telling me."

 

 "No, officer, Ryland this is harrassment."

 

 "See it as you will. We'll be keeping tabs on you Mrs Carlisle and until you tell us the truth on what happened in Saratoga Springs, then this will be a continous investigation."- Ryland.

 

 "Well, as soon as you fail in your attempts to paint me as a criminal, I will sue your ass." - Elaina.

 

The officers shoes are seen walking out of View and a door clicks open.

 

 "Mrs Carlisle, I do hope your husband pulls through, I do. ut, something has been bothering me. It's kind of a coincidence that officer Lance and your wonder boy photographer Christopher Wilson, would go AWOL, the same night your husband disappeared. Maybe I'll have more luck with Mrs Wilson from the Bronx, you know the high on drugs gal you visited this afternoon."

 

A door clicks shut.

 

 "Oh shit, this is not good." - Elaina.

Harry's P.O.V.​

 


Harry is sat in the passengers seat of Rebecca's car, as Rebecca drives them to Manhattan for some ice skating. Harry spots the sign


 "You are now leaving Francis Bay. Please come Back again soon."​

 


 OK, it's a two hour journey to the city. Maybe I should try and persuade Rebecca to open up to me now. Or maybe not I don't want to make her nervous at the wheel, might have an accident. At least I can rest my leg 'til then. Although I'm so anxious to know more about my life and the two women in my life or three. Bethany my second wife, Rebecca my daughter, who may not be, and Tina who died nearly two years ago. And there's something else.

 

Flashback- " You won't remember any of this." - Psychotherapist.

 

 What does that mean? What was I supposed to forget.

 

"You're quiet there." - Rebecca.

 

 "Oh, just going into thought. Trying come to grips with events."

 

"It will get better, you'll see."

 

 "I don't want Bethany fretting over you taking me ice skating. She might think you're trying to break me altogether."

 

"You can't wither in the house weeks on end, until you recover. You need to exercise."

 

 "He He He, you know ice skating is quite a level up to a slow recovery sweetheart."

 

"Trust me, you'll be fine."

 

 "I don't want to spoil the occasion Becks, but you haven't really opened up much on why you and Emma split up."

 

"It's complicated Daddy....I guess our love wasn't as strong as it was mean't to be. We drifted apart."

 

 "You two seemed pretty close."

 

"We were, but it wasn't to be. Sorry I had to burden you with that, considering what you went through with Gloria."

 

 "I'm your father aren't I?"

 

".................Course you are."

Dominic King is seen entering the bank to cash in. Bethany appears to be awkward behind her desk.

 "Good morning Mr King? How are you this morning?" - Bethany.

 Dominic appears to not be in a gracious mood and puts cash on the table.

 "May I have this placed in my savings account please?" - Dominic.

 "Sure, why don't you sign here."

 Dominic not making eye contact with Bethany signs the paper work. Bethany glances around to other customers in queues, entering and leaving the building.

 "How's Deloris?"

 Dominic does not reply. The manager of the bank, notices evasive and cold Dominic is towards Bethany's attempt at conversation. Dominic throws the pen on the table and the paper work.

 "Appreciated." - Dominic.

 Dominic exits the bank.

​

 


 Oh God, I've forgotten how to skate. Hope I don't make my leg worse. Although could be a confidence booster, if I manage to not make it to the accident and emergency unit. Rebecca give her credit, her flirty and bribery act would wonders on the guy at the counter. Rebecca, Rebecca, I hope Gloria's accusations against you aren't true. Are you really my daughter.

 "I don't know how you did it, Becks, but if something happens to me out there, that guy could get fired."

 "Don't worry, I'm not using you, to get a compo claim. I mean would I risk your will to have a better life?" - Rebecca.

"How much did you give him?"

"A Hundred and Fifty?"

"Dollars?"

"No a hundred and fifty shades of grey. (sarcastically)........Not really. Too cold for that, especially for that many times anyway."

"Hey you enough of the sarcasm. When do I get to skate?"

 "Patience, just allow me to adjust your skating shoes."

 Harry is then helped to his feet by Rebecca.

Ooow this is gonna hurt.

 "Hold on tight now, we're just gonna glide slowly not too fast." - Rebecca.

Oh shit, here we go. F**k there is quite a few people on this rink. I hope I don't get knocked down. Just be brave Harry. Just go with the flow.

"Don't be nervous, just look at me and be happy."

"Yeah, good this isn't it?"

"There ya go, your a natural."

​What in the world? Who Gods name is this woman? Is that Rebecca I here?

Oh no, please God No! Not my Ma Ma. Oh God no, please, no no!"

 "Please, wake up Ma Ma, I love you!" - Rebecca

 Wait a minute this is not my memory.


 (Cut to a much older memory of Rebecca's)

 Oh my God what the F**k? Oh my God where am I. A river and girl dancing around. Oh my God she's gonna fall!

 "Alicia!!!" (screams)

 "Oh my GOD, Rebecca no!! Rebecca!!"

 Holy shit, that girl just fell into the river. That poor child.

 Nancy Blake Show
 On Air Cam Show
 Manhattan
 New York City
​

 

 

Host Nancy Blake (played by Serinda Swan), is hosting Live coverage in front of a live audience and to millions across the country. Her Guests are Sharon Taylor, left, Deloris King, Centre, and Matt Graison, right. Deloris is holding missing posters of her mother, Charlotte King, who unbeknown to her had been murdered by the Francis Bay Killer, orchestrated by Bethany, weeks earlier.

Nancy Blake looks to the Camera, as she sits left Deloris in Camera view.

 "Welcome to the Nancy Blake show. Hi I'm Nancy Blake and here with me today is Deloris King, who runs a coffee shop, in the small town of Francis Bay on the far east coast of Long Island. Am I correct?"

Blake puts the microphone to Deloris mouth.

"Uh, yeah, but......."- Deloris

 "That's very interesting, must get chilly this time of year, but of course you have plenty of hot drinks to warm yourself up with huh, keep the colds at bay. Get it at Bay? Ha haha haha."

 "Uh....Uh yeah. Listen I'm looking for my mother......"

 "I hope you're not nervous, which is perfectly normal, because this is my fifth show and I'm still nervous. In fact is there anyone here who is not nervous, Sharon? Matt?"

Blake puts the microphone back to Deloris lips.

"Listen I'm in search of my mother, her name is Charlotte King, she disappeared around a month and half ago......"

Blake interrupts her.

"This wonderful. Because I love coffee. My favourite is Latte. It's bad I know because of the caffeine. But, the energy surge just sends chills down my spine. Can't beat a Latte or Cappuccino, with a Cream Pie."

Blake feels momentarily awkward and coughs, before placing the Microphone back to Deloris.

"Listen, I'm trying to find my mother, her name is Charlotte King and........"

Blake interrupts again.

"This is wonderful, Uh......how did it come about that you became to run your own coffee shop?."

 "Look, I'm trying......"

 "Do you recommend this line of work. Do you make a lot of money doing this?"

 "Her name is Charlotte King, she's forty three......"

 "This is a little off the subject, but that is a beautiful bracelet, can I ask you where you got that?"

 "She's forty three years old, I'm trying to find her."

 "Great, lets say you do find her. What would you say to her, what would be the first thing that would pop into your head?"

 "She's Forty Three years old, her name is Charlotte King...."

 "Thank you so much Deloris."......Blake turns to guest Sharon. "Hello, there Sharon, now you are an interesting character. Now you are twenty one and you have slept with a hundred men over seventy years old."

 "And they've me so rich!!"- Sharon

 "Who can blame you?"- Blake

A seething Deloris snatches the microphone away from Blakes hand.

"Yeah, rich bitch can my kiss my boring ass. Listen I'm trying my mother OK. Her name is Charlotte King, she was last seen in Francis Bay Long Island, on January 12th, and if you have any information....."

 "Thank you, Deloris....- Blake.

 "No f*** off Blake, and if you have any information to this wonderful lady, I'd appreciate it if you contact the Kings Café of Francis Bay, I have a five thousand dollar reward to offer. Hey, asshole, leave the camera on me, I'll knee your balls right to the roof of your mouth. Charlotte King, Kings café, Francis Bay, Long Island. Now you can talk about, skanky Sharon and her geriatric perverts and whatever, excuse me."

 "Thank you, that was Deloris King."

Deloris walks off set. Blake has the microphone and points it to Matt Graison's lips


"Now where were we. Oh yes, you have slept with over a hundred men and they are all over seventy."- Blake.

 "Actually no, that was Sharon."- Matt.

 "Oh yes.......Blake looks to the camera awkwardly. ......."We'll be right back after this commercial break."

Cue Commercial Break music.

 HARRY P.OV.


​

Harry and Rebecca are sat on a bench eating a burger, opposite each other.

 Rebecca what is it that you're scared for me to find out? The visions are becoming more occurring too. Did these ever happen before I lost my memory, or are they part of a new phase in my life? I wish the whole truth could just open up completely, just for some closure. Looks like I may have to learn the hard way.

 "I've had a certain memory pop up, where I'm cradling a dying woman in my arms. Felt like a very long time ago."

Rebecca- "I'm not sure on that one."

"Or maybe you're worried how I might take the truth, if I were to find out. Is it the sort of memory that nobody may want me to find out?"

"It is painful. I don't think it would be my place to tell you."

"But, you may know whom I'm referring to right?"

"You really wanna know?"

"I can take it."

"It was probably your mother, my grandmother.......your parents were murdered twenty four years ago, shortly after you left High School."

Holy shit, I shouldn't have asked. That is too much more than I can handle, with all the other stuff.

 


I'm sorry, you wanted me to be honest."

"Don't blame yourself, I'm OK......wow. Why? I mean who would do such an evil thing. Who killed them?"

"Nobody knows. Whoever did it, is still free today. For something to go unsolved for so long, it must have had a major cover up."

"You mean the police, the Fed's, they just gave up? No justice has been done."

"Before you lost your memory, you told me, that the evidence the police had was so inconclusive, it would have taken a long, long, long, long, long time before they could even tell what the circumstances were, let alone make an arrest."

"Sounds like my parents murder was premeditated. If it wasn't, a cover up like this wouldn't have lasted this long."

"Sorry Dad, but the only people that knew of your parents death, was your parents and you found them."

"Before we return home to Long Island, I want you to take me to the archives."

"Daddy c'mon I don't want you to stress yourself out more, than you already have."

"Please, if we get home late, I won't let you take the blame, I promise.....I'm just desperate."

"I'll give you an hour no more."

Elaina's Handbag Cam​ Southern Manhattan

 

Elaina's voice can be heard, as she sits impatiently in her car.

"C'mon copper hurry and piss off." - Elaina.

Anxious tapping on the steering wheel can be heard. Few moments pass and she has lost all patience.

"That's it, can't wait anymore. We all have to take risks."

Elaina's picks up her handbag and appears to run across the street and into an apartment complex, possibly Emma's previous apartment once again.

 We then cut to an elevator sequence, ascending upwards and Elaina steps out and walks over to Emma's front door and listens in carefully. Elaina can hear heavy breathing and slowly enters. Continuing into the apartment kitchen, blood can be seen splattered on the floor and then Emma is seen sat over Officer Ryland's dead body. The handbag is dropped to the ground with the CAM still facing Emma and a kitchen knife beside her. Emma is drugged to the eyeballs.

"Jesus Christ Emma what have you done?"- Elaina

Elaina stands alongside the body.

"He made me do it. He broke in."- Emma.

 "Emma this is a police officer, his name is Ryland.

 "He's a police off.......Oh shit."

 "Emma this is gonna look bad. You have put everything into a major predicament."

 "Major predicaments have been happening to me for a while El, might as well put the icing on the cake. Anyway I guess you had had better call 911 emergency and send me in. Might as well confess my sins and tell them everything."

 "Emma what have you done? WHAT HAVE YOU FUCKING DONE!!" - Elaina.

 "What have I done? What about what people have done to me? Ok I admit both myself and Chris did the same to each other and sleep with the same sex, but on top of all that, the girl that I fell in love with, fell in love with a vampire psychopath, concealing her murders. My now deceased, legal father, bought me off my drug addict biological father and he's dead. And to top it all off I've got nothing left, except a dead policeman in my apartment, who I thought was an intruder."

 

ERIC LANCE COMPUTER SURVEILLANCE
SECRET, UNKNOWN LOCATION
​

 


Lance can see the mess Emma has gotten herself into

"My, my, my what a mess."- Eric

( back to conversation between Elaina and Emma).

"What am I gonna do now? Ryland was gonna ask you about Hugo and Beagle, two cops that have been harassing me and have gone missing." - Elaina.

 "What you think I killed them too?" - Emma

 "No, this has to do with the investigation into what's being going on in Francis Bay"

 " Oh wouldn't have anything to do with Rebecca's dirty secret would it or Bethany being serial killer? Might as well just get it out in the open on the way down to the police station. I'll help you put the body in the trunk."

Elaina starts to cry

"Don't cry. It's my fucking mess."- Emma

 "You don't understand." - Elaina

Emma gets to her feet over a bloodied body.

"I thought we were friends."

 "I wanted to be and I don't know maybe, this............."

 "Elaina I just murdered a blue fuckin badge. I can deal with it, call e'm I won't hold it against you. You never know I might get better sex in the showers."

 "Emma! You're off your Fucking head!!"

Emma is then seen grabbing a glass of water.

"Elaina are you trying to say what I think you about to say? You don't have to cover for me. As much as I love you, there's no way out of this. If I get everything off my chest now, Bethany will go straight to hell and Rebecca, well, identity theft and aiding abetting a murderer, ouch. You Elaina will be saving Harry from years of torture and bullshit."

 (Eric voice is then heard).

"Oh my Holy God. If Emma talks, then Carla will act with deadly vengeance on the World, and Bethany again will be prepared. We could yet have a worse case scenario on our hands. Right location phone book. "

 

     Elaina's handbag Cam.
 Ã¢â‚¬â€¹Emma's apartment telephone rings.

"Who is that calling?" - Elaina

 "Probably someone new about to move into an apartment, now haunted by a dead policeman."- Emma

Emma is about to head to the phone, when Elaina cuts her off

"Let me answer it, you're in no fit state. And mind the dead body."

 

Eric's computer surveillance.
Elaina's Bag Cam
 Elaina's voice can be heard and there is an echo, in between the cam and the phone line.

"Elaina what the hell is going on? This wasn't supposed to happen." - Eric

 "It wasn't my fault, this cop is harassing me and Emma's be caught up in it in her pretty little neck." - Elaina whispers.

"We're not supposed to get everything out in the open, until we've located Carla and that Cosmos necklace is out of Bethany's grasp. We could literately end up back to square one again and then we're fucked . "

 "It was an accident, Emma didn't mean to. She's lost everything. The people she loves, she's lost her mind. She's needs help."

 "I'm glad to hear that. You're about to commit your first federal crime."

 "Oh Christ, you want me to hide the body?"

 Cam remains on Emma who shivers at the thought of a bludgeoned body in her kitchen. She then looks at Elaina's handbag that's open and spots a bright red light in her bag. Emma moves over to the bag, as Elaina remains on the phone to Lance and looks inside. Between the outside and inside of the bag, is cam and Emma has found it.

"And to top it all off, Emma's found the cam."- Eric

 "Oh shit."

The Handbag is then seen being picked up by Emma and walked across the room with heavy footsteps.

"You fony Bitch are you spying on me?" - Emma

 "Emma listen to me it's not what you think."- Elaina

 "Funny, everyone say's that."

 "It's for my protection."

 "Do I look like I just flew over the cuckoos nest?"

 "It's hard to say really."

 "You don't care about me do you, you're just the same as all of them.Benjamin, Lance, Bethany, Rebecca, Chris! You're just a bunch of Fucking Bastards!"

 "Emma please."

Partially from Cam view Emma head butts Elaina and her nose starts to bleed. Emma drops Elaina's bag and runs off somewhere and footsteps can be heard coming back. Elaina can be heard panicking and out of the nowhere footsteps can be heard slowly stomping back loudly.

"So what's another persons blood on my hands. After all, I'm being exactly what Linda Perry was. A person that Rebecca could LOVE!!"

Screams can be heard and out of the blue, Emma is seen running across cam with a kitchen knife. A scuffle can be heard. Eric is wondering what's happening.

"Holy shit. There' nothing I can do. C'mon Elaina, C'mon. You fail now. Don't fail us all." - Eric.

Smashing and crashing can be heard, as well as the screaming. Then Emma is punched across screen and the knife falls onto the cam. Elaina kicks away the knife and shoves Emma away. It then seems Emma's footsteps are heard running away. Elaina picks up the handbag and looks into the cam. Shaken and a bit bloodied, but luckily to be alive.

"I'm OK, Emma's ran out the apartment. She's ruined, totally. There's no way back for her. I can't do nothing to help her now. We gotta do something Eric...... Help me."

 I wonder if I'm doing the right thing. What if what I discover becomes too painful? What if the information I get is not fully clear to me or vague? What if I don't wanna know? But, if I'm desperate....wait...What about Rebecca? She loves me and apart from me being here looking at history that could be daunting and haunting, Rebecca is hiding something too. But, that also......what if I don't wanna know that either. Ah, shit, we're here now, might as well face the music. I know everyone will tell me, that something's are best left in the past and the future is all that matters. But, the visions, they are obviously are trying to tell me something. In my dreams and now recently, when I make contact. I see a woman, possibly my first wife, visions, of happiness and.....horror. Oh shit we're. Don't back out Harry, don't throw the fucking towel in. Could bring to light more than you realize.

 "You ready for this?" - Rebecca

"Yeah......yeah."

 "Look are you sure you're up to this, I mean this is so soon?"

"Rebecca I need closure. I think so suddenly in my amnesia, I'm not so patient."

 "What about Bethany?"

"I won't say anything and you mustn't either."

 "That's what I mean, maybe........no you're right. You should do this at you're own free will."

"I know it's intense, but I can't hide behind closed doors forever."

 "Nobody said forever, but you've are getting over a kidnapping ordeal."

"I'm certain there will be plenty more ordeals in the future."

 "Nothing traumatic I hope."

"OK, lets see what's Ghosts are hiding in the closet. "

"Now, then if we click on here and here...right then what's first?"

This is sickening who would commit such a gruesome attack on nice people? They look nice. I mean for what reason?.......Oh my God, it's say here 'I found them and that....I held my dying mother in my arms.' That memory, the nightmares are......memories from my past. She was my mother. Mary Wilson......died in my arms.

 "How Horrible."

"Daddy I advise you not to continue with this. It's gonna cause you constant stress." - Rebecca

 "I must do this. I need closure, otherwise it will be more stressful not knowing. Hang on a sec.......what the hell?"

ARTICLE READS: July 5th 1979, SURBURBAN GRADUATE RAPED BY EX-COP CROOK.

Bethany? It can't be. My wife was raped, by a cop. The same night my parents was murdered.

 "Rebecca did you know about this?"

"Bethany opened up to me on it a few months ago. It's something that is not easy to get over. But, before you lost your memory you were aware of it."

 "If he could do that, then he could have possibly murdered my parents."

"It is, but as I'm aware of, they could not pin the murders of your parents on him, because there was no sufficient or conclusive evidence to press charges. He was only charged with rape. I don't know the full facts cause I wasn't born until the following year. Your parents murder is still the biggest mystery in the country and the assailant is.....unknown."

 "Listen I promise I won't mention these findings to Bethany, I don't want you getting into any trouble. Anyway I need to find something on your mother."

Rebecca's cell phone is heard ringing.

 "Rebecca do you know what year I married your mother?"

"Um, I think you said sometime around the Autumn of 1995, I recall."

 

SPLIT SCENE

 Rebecca and Bethany talk on the phone, whilst Harry continues his article search in the Archives.

 "Rebecca if I didn't love you so much, I would have broken your neck by now. Where the fuck are you?!" - Bethany

 "Uh yeah, it's good, everything is great. Yeah....um.." - Bethany

 "Oh I'm sorry, can you be a bit more specific because I'm feeling very uncomfortable right now. Put Harry on the phone."

 "I'm sorry, name doesn't ring a bell Mrs....Focker."

 "That's flattering is that how you feeling about me Beck, as a random piece of Garbage?"

 "You said it not me."

"Put him on the phone, I won't ask three times."

 "Or what?"

 "Alright, alright, I'll give you an hour. If you're not home in that time, you and I will be having a serious altercation and it won't just be verbal."

"Can we make that three hours?"

 "You disappoint me Becky. I thought we were starting to trust one another again. I wanna know why Harry is not recovering at home and you're sneaking him out of the house?"

 Bethany hangs up and chucks the receiver across the bedroom.

 


HARRY P.O.V.
​"Everything OK Becks?"

 "Uh yeah, Um, listen maybe we should head back to Francis Bay. Bethany might hit the roof if she finds out that I brought you Manhattan."

"Just a few more minutes sweetheart, I need to find something out about your mother. I won't be long I promise."

 Wait, that's me..... and Tina. On our wedding day.

ARTICLE FROM NOV 1995. 'Harry Wilson and Tina Mcquire, both 35, were officially declared husband and wife, yesterday, at Grace Church at 2pm. Around 200 guests witnessed the happy occasion. It was made more special by the fact they were two high school just reunited after sixteen years apart.'

That's Tina......the love of my.........or was?

 "Bethany."

"Sorry, Daddy what did you say?"- Rebecca.

"Oh, Bethany will, yeah you're probably right. Bethany will probably be upset. Let's go home."

"You want the good news or the bead news?" - Eric

 " Nothing in this situation is good news, so I'm afraid I don't understand your definition." - Elaina.

 "OK we'll start with the good news. I've had the body cleaned up and evidence has been evaporated in Emma's apartment."

 "How'd you'd do that in a matter of an hour?"

 "I have reliable resources. You're clean."

 "Oh thanks, I'll do a couple of cartwheels if you like."

 "Excuse me, did I ask you to waltz into Emma's apartment uninvited?"

 "You said bad news or did you actually mean more worse news than the bad you thought was good?"

 "The bad news is, we have a situation. I know how much you cared for Christopher and how you had come to be fond of Emma. But I have a situation. Like Christopher, Emma has gone down a dark path and I'm worried that this whole mission will go up in smoke, now Emma has seen through it. Emma is also a cop killer and high drugs. She could blatantly have no problem going to Francis Bay and warning Harry, putting him in danger and thus blowing plans out the window."

 "You actually believe that Bethany's sister has had her watched?"

 "Carla still has major resources connected to the Cosmos and considering the lengths she went to make me look like a complete asshole when she was Chanel Mantel, I'm not willing to take that chance."

 "Oh God no. No no no. Your bad guys days are supposed to be over remember?" - Elaina

 "Elaina we may not have a choice here. She might still come back and kill you off. You're a witness to homicide and your son could be in danger, not to forget to mention your comatose husband." -Eric

 "Elaina's not like that."

 "You will insist on finding the good in people won't you."

 "I thought that's the reason I'm trusting in you."

 "........Tu shay. Alright but I will advise you. Keep Andy off school. Go lay low for a while, just the two of you and I'll make sure you're watched on OK?"

 "You want me go underground, just me and Andy?"

 "Unless you want me to be the one to write the fatal memoirs of the Carlisle family, then yes that's what I'm saying."

 "But what about Abs? He's in a coma. What if he dies and I'm not there."

 "He'd want you to protect his son. I'll even use tactics to secretly hack into the security cameras at the hospital to make sure he's safe from danger."

 "If you find Emma before she finds me or you know, what you said, just hide her somewhere. She's still broken up over Christopher and her break up with Rebecca"

 "If it means so much, I'll hide here. But if necessary force needs to be taken it will. You see Elaina, the Cosmos case is what you'd call Mission Impossible. Few could end this terror, the conspiracies , the murders, the cover ups. We will prevail Elaina. Harry and ourselves will get closure and we'll win. When this is over, I may end up in prison, but as a winner. As a winner for doing the right thing."

 "I believe.........now."

 "Thank you. Take the Laptop with you and your secret coding. I'll be in touch. Stay safe."

 "Bye."

 "Stay safe, Elaina."

"You alright?" - Benjamin

 "Define Alright." - Bethany

 "What's happened?"

 "Oh, just Rebecca being guilty as always. Being the nice daughter, she's always wanted to be. Even with trying to hide from our problems, she just wants to be that one step ahead of me, all the fucking time."

 "OK, ok, what's she done?"

 "I think she's taken him to the city. I'm beginning to suspect she wants him to regain his memories."

 "If he did, he won't know any of our darkest secrets. He never knew before he lost his memory."

 "That's not what I'm worried about."

 "You think Rebecca is trying to hurt you, by Harry going back to his past like........?"

 "Tina. Always her. Even her being dead, she's still trying to take Harry away from me. She may have been my half sister, but I will always remember her as the Bitch, who deliberately got there first."

 "And now we got a bigger problem in present day, MOM? Rebecca? You say you love her in your own way, but she if she loves Harry that much, enough to expose you, and herself, then we can't trust her.

A female voice is heard, whilst the Cam is viewing Bethany and Benjamin in conversation

"That's incriminating" - Marge

 "What's incriminating?" - Eric

 "Bates talking about exposure and not trusting that girl what's her name? Rebecca."

 "Exposure about what? Her sleeping with her step daughter? You're not watching The Ricky Lake Show now Marge."

 "Ok Mr Sarcastic, what I meant was Bates could have suggested Rebecca would be better off dead."

 "Maybe, but I think will use her manipulation to calm the situation she thinks she has solved."

 "Question is, how long will it be, before Bethany discovers the camera's we had Elaina set up?"

 "Trust me, we will have enough time to blow this operation wide open and Carla will have to come out of hiding at some point."

 "Look Eric, you may think we can pull the wool over Bethany's eyes. But, she is a devious homicidal sociopath. So far she has had her wits about her, and Harry still thinks she walks on air." - Marge.

 "How's Um......?" - Eric

 "You've forgotten her name already? Oh of course you're just working hard, viewing a frustrated psycho who has revealed nothing of yet."

 "If you'd shut up, I'd probably would hear what they talking about?"

 "She's fine by the way. Watching 'Star Wars,' with Jack."

 "Which one?"

 "Empire Strikes Back."

 "Good choice."

"What's your favourite movie?"

 "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly."

 "I can understand why, you're all three of them personalities all rolled in to one. Although I would consider the good part controversial."

 "Yeah, yeah, enough Yackity Yack and let me hear what they're saying."

Bethany on Cam then kisses Benjamin inappropriately and Benjamin touches on her ass.

"What the F........?" Really?" - Marge

 "Yep, you're actually viewing true incest before your eyes Margie?" - Eric

 "They're twisted as well as dangerous. That poor guy?"

 "Who? Benjamin fucking Bates?"

 "No, Harry Wilson.......Oh God they're not gonna?.......I'm gonna be sick if they..........I can't watch this."

 "Yep, you're so sick to the stomach you can't bare to take your eyes of the screen."

Benjamin exits the house.

"So what now? Check on Elaina or something."

 "I will eventually. She's need lay low. I'm sure she'll find somewhere."

 "And what about this Emma Wilson? She's fucked the situation up."

 "I'm surprised as much as you are, that Emma went all psycho. I've tried tracking her. But, she's gone off the radar."

 "We should have had Elaina brought here."

 "And followed. No, can't keep taking too many risks."

 "I've got a bad feeling about this. Are you sure Elaina secured them camera's from sight? I was more surprised she didn't wake up the household that night, when she installed them." - Marge

 "Will you stop fretting Marge, Bethany has got it coming. If I am to go to jail, then I wanna make sure Bethany, her precious son and estranged evasive Sister are fried before I go."

HARRY P.O.V.

​

"Has Bethany been able to go over it, you know?

"I don't know. A few reoccurrences of memories here and there. I don't think anyone can really. - Rebecca.

"And her son, she's never contacted him or vice versa?"

"Not that I know of but........"

"What is it?"

"Nothing I......nothing."

"I bet you miss your mother a lot. I know you never had the chance to meet after.......what happened that day."

"........I know. I was just a block away from the Towers when they went down. I was forced into a café. You were thrown under a car by Uncle Jeff to protect you from the debris.

"Your Uncle Jeff, was he as bad as everyone thought he was? Was he really a terrorist, before he died?"

"People perceived Uncle Jeff the wrong way in my opinion. You were his baby brother and he loved you. In fact he did more good than anything bad."

"That's comforting to know."

"You see I've cheered you up already."

"Thank you for today. I will defend you when we get home."

"Look Daddy, I'm a big girl, let me handle it. Bethany is your wife after all, I would probably feel the same if I was in her shoes."

"You're not afraid of her are you?"

"Afraid? Where did that come from, we're family."

"I know that was Bethany on the phone back there Beth. We'll work it out, when we get home."

"Well, we're only five minutes away, we'll see."


 What's that on the Lamp Post. MISSING, CHARLOTTE KING. How awful for them. Hope she is safe.

Bethany walks up and down the hallway anxiously, when suddenly the front door opens and Rebecca helps Harry inside.

 

HARRY P.O.V.
 Ã¢â‚¬â€¹Bethany looks pissed. Hopefully not for Rebecca's sakes.

"Honey you OK?" - Bethany.

"Sweetheart everything is fine. Look don't ta......hey Hun take it easy, I'm........


PSYCHIC FLASHES OF BETHANY'S PAST

 . Being held down by Albert Kray in 1979

 .Burning down Dominic's house for the Insurance

 .Being committed to an asylum

 . "I'll never leave you again. I promise," Bethany tells Benjamin.

 . "You'll never replace Tina ever," Jeff warns Bethany in 2001.

 .Bethany seducing Rebecca.

 What in God's name?

 "Harry are you OK?" - Bethany.

 "Daddy?" - Rebecca.

"I'm fine, I'm OK....Really I'm OK. Look don't take it out on Rebecca. She wanted to.......It was my idea. All of it. I wanted to venture instead of being cooped up all day. I know you wouldn't have agreed to it.....I'm sorry."

 Oh shit, what's just happened.

"Look lets get you upstairs. I'll you run you a nice warm bath. Rebecca and I will be getting on fine."

"If you insist. See you in a few Becks."

"I'll make us some Tea." - Rebecca.

Oh shit. This is awkward. The whole day's been awkward. Mysterious if that. If anything it's been a revelation. Whenever I'm touched by someone, their life unfolds to me. But, it appears dark and hurting, painful.......yet some.... deceitful. I don't know, but as well as what I discovered in the archives, I may have stumbled upon something darker about the two women currently in my life. The two I live under the same roof with. Just what is the truth? What is truth behind my life? Gloria Lang told me, Rebecca wasn't my daughter. Maybe she was telling the truth. So if it is, then......Rebecca stole my true daughters Identity out of guilt, because she died when they were ten. And now, I find out my wife was raped by a cop and....something else. Bethany setting a fire and Benjamin.......then my brother Jeff.....Oh fuck. Just take it easy. Hold it together Harry, but I think these flashes, are far from over. These revelations are just the beginning.

Rebecca is making and preparing the tea. Bethany enters and shuts the kitchen door behind her. She looks at Rebecca looking upset. The conversation becomes an argument in a whispering high tone.

"Why? - Bethany

 "Why what?" - Rebecca

 "Don't piss me off tonight girl. You took him out of this house, while he has been trying to recover from injuries suffered because some crazy friend of yours, tried to out you. He's lost his memory. He's vulnerable."

 "Oh so this is what it's all about. You're worried that Harry will see right through you?"

 "We're getting somewhere at last. Where'd you go? Manhattan?"

 "Yeah."

 "What did you do?"

 "Walked about."

 "He's not supposed to walk about."

 "Oh so he's just gotta stay in the house all day, while you plot?"

 "Plot what?"

 "I don't know you tell me. You seem to conjure up ways to hide things and plan action. Like trying to pay off my mother on Christmas Eve. You remember the night she died?"

 "You took him out of the house, because you wanted to get back at me, because I was looking out for your best interests? I suppose you're gonna blame me because Linda Perry was a psychotic Vampire and died because of me too or maybe you just wanna let off steam because Emma walked out on you. "

 "Whatever."

 "Does have any reoccurring memories of his past, the life he should know with us?"

Rebecca laughs

"Don't laugh at me." - Bethany

 "Bethany you're paranoid."

 "Don't fucking mock me."

 "OK, I took him Ice Skating."

 "Ice skating...........Yeah what am I getting all paranoid about? He can break a leg as much as he wants, when you're looking after him, or when you properly not."

 "I'd like to break a leg too, I've gotta take him this nice cup of tea."

"I'm warning you Becky darling, please don't push me. I love you. You know that. I've told you often enough. Shown you.....Don't let all that turn to distrust. I'll forgive you, if you promise, never to pull a stunt like that ever again. "

Bethany touches Rebecca's hand.

"You're trying to manipulate me again." - Rebecca

 "It works....most of the time." - Bethany

 "Just so I remind you Beth, I know one of your past secrets too. You know, time in Mental Institute, because you were dangerous to society."

 "Your secret is just as great. We both know, that you could never tell Harry. You love him too much to throw it all away.

Bethany touches Rebecca's face

"Please Becky, don't ever take him out of this house, without my permission ever again......please. I don't want this relationship of ours getting even more complicated than it already is...........Although I do miss us on occasions. It makes us come to understandings, if you know what I mean? ........No more Linda and no more Emma...........Just us.

Bethany starts passionately Rebecca, who freezes on the spots. Bethany starts to touch Rebecca's breasts, when something catches Bethany's eye and pulls back slowly. She looks back to Rebecca.

"You take this tea upstairs to him OK? Water under the bridge.............I forgive you. You're my girl." - Bethany

 "If you say so." - Rebecca

Rebecca exits the kitchen with Harry's tea and heads upstairs. Bethany manoeuvres slowly towards the microwave, when the door bell suddenly rings.

"That is definitely something incriminating on Bethany. She was a danger to society?" - Marge

 "I knew that, but she never explained why she was a danger to society. Doesn't help us one bit" - Eric

 "This Rebecca seems to have known a while about Bethany past in a Mental Institute. It's a start."

 "That's the problem it's a start, but the start means we still have to wait.....possibly for a long, long, long time, yet."

 "Who's she talking to at the door?"

 "I don't know, lets see."

A minutes of silence passes by, when Bethany suddenly re-appears. Bethany looks to her surroundings and then switches the hallway light off. She wanders into the direction of the Living room. About 45 seconds of darkness is show with silence. Then a big shadow is then cast over the cam. Suddenly, Bethany looks into the hidden cam and seizes it. She smirks at the discovery.

 "What the fuck are you looking at?" - Bethany.

Bethany hits the cam and the picture scrambles.

 Francis Bay, Long Island
 Wilson Household​

 

 


 It's early morning. Bethany quietly calls Benjamin over on her cell phone. She informs him of what she discovered the night before. Hidden camera's hidden in the house. Benjamin suspects Rebecca, but Bethany is not so sure, but insists they watch their step. Benjamin tells his mother, he is going to take his motorcycle out for a spin.

 Whilst Benjamin makes himself scarce, Rebecca enters the kitchen getting a glass of water and Bethany interrupts her.

 "So that's why you couldn't wait to take him for a joyride yesterday," Bethany bluntly says.

 "Huh?" Rebecca frowns. "What are you rambling on about now."

 "I didn't know playing Big Brother was on the agenda."

 "Are you on crack again? I thought you made it perfectly clear last night, with your kinky innuendo."

 Bethany throws down the webcams that were hidden around the downstairs.

 "Wanna explain what you hoping to achieve?" Bethany snaps.

 "Are you serious?" Rebecca gasps.

 "Rebecca you have been sloppy honey. You take Harry out of the house, while injured, without my permission. And you do this."

 "For what purpose?"

 "You don't trust me. You think you can always be one step ahead of me don't you Becks.?"

 "Are you implying that I set this whole thing up to spy you? Bethany there is more important things to worry about in my life at the moment, than you. If you think I did this then, it's your fucking problem not mine. I'm sure there are plenty of enemies out there, plotting your downfall."

 "What's that supposed to mean?"

 Rebecca keeps quiet on the fact, Emma warned her to be careful of Bethany, as she could be dangerous.

 "It's means, that I didn't install these camera's. Seriously, I'm not that technically gifted."

 "I sure hope for your sake that's the truth. You're excused."

 

 Kings Café Apartment
 Francis Bay

​

Bethany rings the Apartment buzzer for the apartment and Deloris answers. Deloris allows Bethany in and Dominic feels really tense and awkward when Bethany makes her presence. Dominic is still reeling from discovering Bethany got Charlotte involved in the death of Mrs Robinson two months earlier. Bethany notices Deloris is making missing posters based her mothers disappearance. Both Dominic and Deloris are unaware that Bethany and the Francis Bay Killer 'Benita' was behind Charlotte's gruesome murder weeks earlier. Deloris thanks Bethany for stopping, but insists she must carry on handing out flyers. Upon Deloris, leaving apartment, Bethany takes out the cams and throws them on the table.

 "Yeah, what are they?" Dominic shrugs.

 "Well, they look like camera's to me. You really wanna take the most hateful revenge on me don't you Dom?" Bethany accuses.

 "I'm confused, what are you insinuating?"

 "You know damn well what I'm getting at. So cut the bullshit Dominic, I know you been keeping surveillance on me. You been trying to out me."

 "I would love to do that, considering what you did to my wife."

 "No, what we did to your wife. It's not all me Dom, your hands are far from clean."

 "If I was going to do this, it would be the most stupidest act I could do. You know why, because I know you'd take me down to."

 "Thought you didn't care about that. But you do.......Deloris. We can't have her finding out, that her father orchestrated the death of her brother now can we."

 Dominic sees red and almost strikes Bethany in rage.

 "YOU SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!!" Dominic snaps.

 "Thank you, that's all I wanted to know," Bethany calmly responds holding her nerves.

 Bethany takes her handbag and proceeds to the front door.

 "So why did you think it was me?" Dominic queries.

 "Just wanted to be sure? And I believe you."

 "One more thing, Beth........If I find out that you had anything to do with Charlottes disappearance. I will make you wish Albert Kray killed you the night he raped you."

 Bethany chuckles momentarily. "And I thought, I was all out evil. Guess we'll find out who has the darker side in due course."

 "God help me."

 "Get to me first Dom...... or try to."

 Bethany leaves. Dominic suspects Bethany is behind the disappearance of Charlotte as she did not deny it, but didn't admit it either. Dominic grabs a glass and smashes it against the wall in anger.

Episode 140: Mind Impact. Part 2.

Benjamin arrives at a Gas Station about twenty miles west of Francis Bay to fill is Motorcycle up. He goes in to pay and buy and some brunch. Upon returning to his Motorcycle, he spots a 4X4 Truck in the opposite street, facing the Gas Station. He hops on his bike and places his helmet, just as another vehicle parks up and out gets a male, lighting a cigarette. Benjamin is too distracted by the truck, rather than worry about somebody potentially causing a fire hazard. Benjamin puts his helmet on, when the truck suddenly starts up. The truck edges forward and this makes hesitate, before setting off. Then, the truck accelerates at high speed, heading towards Benjamin. Benjamin in panic starts his bike and manages to avoid being hit by the truck, which instead, hits the smoking guy and smashes him into a fuel pump. The truck comes to a halt and the cigarette flips into the air and hits the floor, mere feet from escaping gasoline. The truck reverses and gives chase to Benjamin. The leaking gasoline ignites from the loose cigarette and the Gas Station explodes killing the owner inside the store also.

 The truck is hot pursuit of Benjamin and he manages to crashing off road when speeding around bends and avoiding on coming vehicles. He spots a dirt track which takes him off road in a desperate attempt to avoid his possible demise at the hands of an unknown maniac. The chase then ends up at an empty Quarry and the Duel is then face to face. Inside the vehicle the identity of the assailant is revealed - It's Emma. She has lost all sense of inhibition, logic and is high on drugs. Following the murder of a cop at her apartment and now the accidental murder of a customer at a gas station, she is at a total loss, she now has nothing to lose. She wants to destroy those, who have betrayed her - starting with the man she hates most- Benjamin Bates.
 She kicks the door open, with a handgun in hand, revealing herself to him.

 "I should have guessed," Benjamin sarcastically says. "That was a bit overboard back wasn't it? Actually it's rather extreme, just over a relationship break up."

 "Oh, it's much more than that Bates," an unrecognizable Emma seethes.

 "So, what now, you're gonna kill me?"

 "Something like that, but first I wanna know?"

 "Wanna know what?"

 "Get off the bike Benjamin."

 "Oh, by all means."

 Benjamin steps off, acting very arrogant. Emma walks towards him cautiously, with the gun pointed at his forehead.

 "Remove the helmet," Emma orders.

 "Of course you being precise about this don't you?" Benjamin groans.

 "No time to act the cool now Bates, you and your mother have ruined many lives already."

 Benjamin removes his helmet and places it on his bike and raises his hands.

 "Say, I guess it's no surprise you're behind the surveillance stunt, my mother discovered?"

 "What the fuck do I need to use surveillance for? I don't wanna my own personal view of you nuzzling on your mothers pussy, hearing it a mere foot under your mothers bed was enough."

 "Dear Oh dear, Emma, you have crossed the line. But, I suppose that's to be expected from the biological daughter of two former drug users and who so called adopted father, was the corrupt Politian who's scandals were covered up to win a senate seat.

 "I guess we're in competition then. You and your mother may have the most kills, but I'll guarantee I'll take the trophy."

 "Kills? What are you talking about?" Benjamin hesitates before reply.

 "Let me refresh your memory - Clara Barton?"

 Benjamin shakes his head in denial and grins and chuckles.

 "Rebecca's aunt?"

 "Now, you know she wasn't her aunt. Clara was her mother."

 "You're not gonna start spreading rumours like that and breaking Rebecca's heart are you. You've already walked out on her?"

 "As much as I hate what she's done, it's nothing compared to what you and your incestous bitch of a mother has covered up all this time. Your related to Carla Morrison, the mother of the boy, who was kidnapped. He was Harry and Tina's adopted son. She's the leader of the Cosmos. I now understand why, you're both so desperate to hide the evidence, that connects you to that organization and the personal issues, your mother has connected with you and what ever else is so screwed up in your past - present."

 "How about I find you a doctor?"

 "How 'bout I build your fucking gravestone?"

 "Well, whatta you waiting for?"

 Emma readies her gun and clicks the chamber.

 "Turn around," Emma demands.

 "Why, am I more attractive from behind?" Benjamin taunts. "When we had that Orgy in New York, you didn't complain then.

 "You won't be so attractive, when I'm finished with you. Turn around you prick."

 Benjamin turns around facing away from Emma. He then taunts her even more.

 "It's kinda tragic for you isn't it? Love. I mean, the two people you loved the most truly didn't love you, as much as they loved the other ones in their life. Christopher chose me after all and sad to say Rebecca was still madly in love with a dead woman - a vampire. Kind of heart breaking isn't it and pathetic? And now, you're just damaged goods. You had the world at your feet and now you're at rock bottom."

 "Speaking of my beloved husband, what happened?"

 "I've been asking myself that question, since he was reported missing."

 "Don't give me that shit. He called me the night Charlotte King disappeared. He was going to expose you and your mother. I know it and he knew it. Did you kill Charlotte murder Charlotte like you killed Christopher?"

 "Emma I loved Christopher, more than life itself and more than you I noticed."

 "No, no, no, you murdered him I know it."

 Emma moves closer and closer, in tatters.

 "DON'T LIE TO ME!! YOU KILLED MY HUSBAND TO PLEASE YOUR MOTHER AND TO CONCEAL YOUR EVIL PASTS AND YOUR CONNECTIONS TO THAT ORGANIZATION!!"

 "Emma, Emma, you know so little and you're gonna pay for it," Benjamin tuts.

 "That disk, where is it?" Emma asks.

 "Disk? Sorry you've lost me."

 "The disk that will open all the secrets to your past, your mothers past, your aunts past, every little detail that will incarcerate you or sentence you to death."

 "Well, I ain't gonna lie to you but....."

 Suddenly, without warning, Benjamin grabs his helmet and swings it at Emma and knocks her out. He then picks up the gun and attempts to fire it at her unconscious body, but it won't fire. He frowns. The chamber is not loaded.

 "Very good Emma, that's very good. Now, Dilemma."

 How will he finish Emma Off?.......Or will he? Will she escape?

Episode 140: Mind Impact. Part 3

At The Wilson's Bethany finds Rebecca looking out to sea and approaches her slowly. The confrontation seems pretty intense, as Rebecca feels annoyed that Bethany would accuse her of concealing webcams inside the house to spy on Bethany. Bethany stands beside her.

 "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to accuse you," Bethany apologises.

 "That's bold of you - and generous I may add," Rebecca acknowledges with the hint of sarcasm.

 "It was just a moment of madness, I had no right to say it."

 "A moment of madness - you've had plenty of them, since I've met you."

 "I was upset. You took Harry - your father from recovering from injury without my knowledge. What if something had happened?"

 "By the sounds of it, it already had. Surveillance."

 "I don't know who is behind it or why, but I will get to the bottom of it."

 "You know I thought we came to Francis Bay to put the past behind us. It's been a fucking horror story so far."

 "And you think I want it be like this? No my love - I will fix this."

 Bethany touches Rebecca's hand.

 "How do you suppose you do that?"

 "Whatever it takes.....my green eyed girl."

 Bethany heads back in doors and sits at the table and looks up at the ceiling.

 Hexville - Upstate New York.

​

Bethany returns home from school and sees that Albert Kray, has been denied bail, following his GTA involvement with the Crocetti's, but knows he cannot tell the cops anything, otherwise he's dead meat, even behind bars. Bethany knows she was the one, who made the call to get him arrested.

Upon arrival, Jeff is escorted to a quiet room, where he meets with Romano Crocetti. Romano wants to plan an air heist and master a plan to implicate his father, Garcia and Billy Mcquire, but needs Jeff's help. If Jeff does not cooperate, then he will end hopes of Johnathan of becoming Hex-ville Mayor. Jeff asks what kind of heist it is and what they are stealing? Romano insists that's his business, but Jeff will be well compensated if anything goes wrong or not. Romano declares the robbery takes place July 4th - Independence Day. Jeff reluctantly agrees, because it involved a hopeful take down of Billy. Little does Jeff know, his father is involved with Project Gemini.

 In a prison, Albert is informed that his lawyer now services for the Crocetti's and will not be granted bail, as Albert is a problem. Albert insists, he will get out no matter how it's done and will find the person or persons that got him incarcerated.

Next Day, Tina starts to get morning sickness and almost passes out and insists to her mother, Audrey that it's probably just a stomach bug. Harry notices how unwell Tina looks, but passes it off as a bug.

 Tina feels brighter as the day goes on and Bethany starts getting jealous, as she watches Harry and Tina sharing a passionate from a distance at schools final bell.

​

 Benjamin is shocked to find that, the burial place that he placed Emma in has been disturbed. Bethany is annoyed.

 "Oh well, it looks like this cat has got another eight lives left," Bethany sighs.

 "I buried the Bitch, after I knocked her out," Benjamin panics.

 "Obviously, not far down enough."

 "Still, she was so high on drugs, I'm surprised she even got out of there."

 "Do you think, they'll connect that Gas Station explosion to you?"

 "I didn't cause it, she did. Cole killed those two guys."

 "So, now we have a crazy, who's even more harder to kill than Linda Perry. Them drugs she was on, must have been a good hit. Shame your hit wasn't as good."

 "Do you think she'll still come after us?"

 "What do you think?" Bethany moans. "Her husband - your boyfriend is out of the picture because of us."

 "I think maybe we should go underground," Benjamin suggests.

 "Yeah, great thinking, lets just prove our guilt and give up everything, that we've achieved to get us here." - Bethany sarcastically.

 "Achieving is vanquishing our problems for good. Every time we seem to get rid of one problem, another arises in quick succession. It could have been her that installed the cameras."

 "The state she was in, she could even kill you with all her might. No definitely not. I believe Rebecca. Dominic denies it, but......"

 "But what? Hank Willis?"

 "Possibly, but if he did, he would have needed somebody from the inside...."

 Bethany raises her eyebrow, with a theory. Benjamin notices his mothers change in motion.

 "What is it?"

 "You and Emma weren't the only ones who cared about Chris. And I'm not talking about Harry. But, if Hank wanted an excuse to get at us for our crimes, he would use the one person, who never gave up on Chris, in his darkest hour."

 Benjamin realizes who Bethany is referring to.

 "You mean?"

 "Elaina of course."

 "So what do we do now? If your hunch is true, we have got to put this to bed as soon as possible. Emma is still out there and with my tyre prints possibly used for forensic evidence at the Gas Station, I wanna make sure I get my story straight. And if Elaina Carlisle was Big Sister, Willis was possibly watching us."

 "Let me worry about Elaina and Emma for that matter. Just keep to your daily routine, don't give anything away. I wanna keep Harry sweet. Rebecca won't be easy. She still loves Emma."

 

Wilson Household.

​Rebecca heads into the kitchen and turns the light on and is surprised to see Harry, sitting alone in the dark. Rebecca jumps startled by his presence.

 "Jesus, Daddy, you scared me. What are you doing sitting in the dark, you should be in bed," asks.

 "Couldn't sleep. Bethany's out," Harry replies.

 Rebecca props herself up on a stool.

 "Where?"

 "Not sure. Not many places to go this time of night, especially in a small town like this. Do you?"

 "I have no idea. Strange."

 "Yeah, maybe she has a lot on her mind."

 "Last few weeks have been a stress, you had quite an ordeal."

 "How about you?"

 "What about me?"

 "What's on your mind?"

 "I'd rather not talk about it tonight Daddy. We'll talk about it some other time. Lets get you to bed."

 Rebecca gets up and attempts to help Harry up."

 "I can read your mind," Harry blurts.

 "Can you?" Rebecca laughs.

 "Jack could read minds. I didn't realize that, until after Tina and I adopted him."

 "You mean Mom and you?"

 "If that's what you call her."

 Rebecca feels slightly uncomfortable by Harry's remark.

 "Well, I know I never got a chance to meet her, but she was still my Biological Mother. I would have loved, like I love you."

 "Even with the Darkness you conceal within your soul, you have the ability to love me, because I'm the last person that connects me to the daughter, that Tina gave up for adoption. My real daughter, the one who died when you were nine and you want to keep her alive within yourself and you can't get out, coz your both trapped and wanting love all at once. But, evil manipulates you. You don't have to have to hide anymore, because my ordeal, has brought back those memories, I thought I lost many years ago back to me today, even with those I lost weeks ago. I have a gift, like Jacks, that I had taken away, now returned. I can read your mind. It doesn't change the way I feel. I forgive you - love you. Now you must open up to me."

 Rebecca is in tears and too frightened to respond. Harry reaches out and takes Rebecca's hand and sees the flashbacks in her mind of his real daughters fall into a raging river. Then, those of Bethany's blackmail and seduction. Harry tries to hide that thought of his psycho wife.

 "What are you gonna do now? hand me over to the police?" Rebecca cries.

 "I would be a hypocrite to. There's a darkness in all of us Becks. Ones we regret from the bottom of our hearts. Those old memories, that have returned, with my recent weeks memories, I wished had stayed hidden, when they were taken away. I'm sure you would have wanted the same. But we can both make up for that. We can both redeem ourselves together."

 "I find it hard to forgive myself. Its been so many years."

 "Your real mother, Clara, before she was murdered, knew you were the daughter, I could love too. And she died knowing she could never hurt you."

 "Murdered, who would do that?"

 "Don't you already know?"

 Rebecca's heart breaks. Harry kisses Rebecca's head.

 "Your mothers death will be avenged, just like Jeff's death will be avenged. But, we must do this together, quietly and most importantly not give anything away. Bethany this sad excuse of a wife of mine, is dangerous, along with her sadistic warped son. They've destroyed many lives, even those I knew and know."

Monday
February 24th
2003
Francis Bay, Long Island.


?
Evening, Harry sits next to a woman, whom for a year and a half, he thought was a genuine human being and a trustful wife. But, Bethany is anything, but. With a memory and a past, he once forgotten, has come back via a psychic power he once had. Harry has always been fully aware, that his parents were murdered in the summer of '79', but seemed to not know who had taken their lives. For some reason, he had his past wiped out following their deaths, up until recently. His recent ordeal, will see his life potentially in danger and requires the help of a Rebecca to bring down those who have deceived him and hid the horrors behind his past. Still, there is the need to retrieve his son, Jack, whom he adopted - although Jack was in fact his illegitimate son. With the psychic visions to see upon human contact, Harry can use this to his advantage.


Deloris and Dominic are brought to fifty or so miles west of Francis Bay to identify the body of a female. They pull back the covers and from their reaction, they have confirmed it's Charlotte. Deloris is physically sick. Dominic is horrified, he now knows, Bethany was behind his wife's murder and he will stop at nothing to get his revenge.

Back in Francis Bay, a news report appears on the TV on the gruesome discovery of Charlotte Kings body. This startles Bethany and leaves Harry and Rebecca numb.

"Oh my God, that's awful," Harry says.

"Who would do such a thing?" Rebecca replies.

"I think we should turn this off, it's making feel sick," Bethany suggests.

Bethany turns the channel and leaves the room. Harry and Rebecca look at each other. Rebecca wants to know from Harry's psychic visions, if she had anything to do with Charlottes death. Fighting tears, Harry nods. Rebecca covers her mouth, feeling nauseas. Harry takes Rebecca's hand.

"She will gets what's coming to her. To Benjamin and that sister of hers," Harry assures. "And I will get my son back to. I want to do this, not just for us, but for Tina too."


KINGS CAFE ?

Dominic helps Deloris to bed once home, who are distraught. Dominic heads into his room and takes the tape recorder, with Bethany inadvertent confession to Joe Hayes, who had the manipulation of truth. Will Dominic risk his freedom for getting justice for Charlotte? Dominic grabs two envelopes, one for the tape recorder and another for a message. He writes it to "Harry Wilson." Little does Dominic know, that Harry is already aware of his and Bethany conspiracy to murder Jeff in the Caribbean.

 

WILSON RESIDENCE?

Rebecca is about to head up the staircase, when Bethany surprises her.

"It will get better Becks," Bethany whispers. "Our lives here in the Bay."

"Do you ever wonder what happened to Christopher?" Rebecca queries.

"What you think he's dead too? That's if he was in the Bay."

"What do you think?"

"If I knew the answers, I'd give e'm to you. Get some sleep."

Bethany heads upstairs to bed. Rebecca feels the urge to get her hands on Bethany for the murder of her biological mother, Clara.

"Don't worry Bethany, the answer to all your deceit is in the mind of the man I call my father," Rebecca says to herself.

 

Harry lays awake and looks out the window at the full moon and remembers the day back in 1979, that changed his life forever.

Wednesday
July 4th
1978
Hex - Ville. Upstate New York. 


Independance Day. Its Harry and Tinas graduation. Harry motives his father is acting out of sorts. When he places his hand on his fathers shoulder, he has flashes of his fathers past, in which Jon, is the descendent of a Fortune Teller, who had got psychic abilities, from exposure to the Extraterrestrial meteor rock in California, in early twentieth century. Harry jumps back. Jon wonders what is wrong with his son, but Harry denies anything is wrong with him, as does Jonathan, who has just recently been blackmailed by Harry's future father in law, Billy Mcquire. 

Jeff meets with Harry, prior to Graduation and gives him a brotherly hug, wishing him luck. Harry is surprised by his brotherly affection. Little does he know, Jeff, Hank and other cronies are about to make an Aviation Heist or exchange, which involves 'Project Gemini,' which could take down Billy and Garcia. Jeff also embraces his mother and father, whom are both stunned by Jeff's unuusal caring mood. Jon though, is aware of Jeffs part in the deal. However, Jeff is not aware that Jon is part of a murder plot to assassinate, Garcia Crocetti. 

Bethany is preparing herself for graduation and Carla jealously gives her best wishes to her younger sister. Bethany sees Harry and Tina meet up and she feels hurt by it.  Charlotte very much wants to be at Dominics graduation and this make him more than happy. 

Jeff and Hank, dress up like Men In Black to participate in a deal , which is a fony and which, makes it look like to his father, a genuine switch. The deal involves an expensive concealing of merchandize, involving Gemini and the fortune its cost, its founder - Carla Morrisons father. Jeff hopes it will bring Billy down. The Gang jump into smart vehicles and make a tow hour journey to an Airfield. 

Garcia pays Billy a good amount of money for his allegiance and that he can go into excile. Garcia is aware Romano is trying to set him up, but will go along with killing Jon, when he comes to attempt to murder him, during the Heist/ exchange. Garcia hates what his son has done, but loves him all the same. 

"So this heist, what will happen, when they get hold of that plane?" Billy asks. 

"Should everything go to plan, Willis will set up Wilson's boy. Considering my offer was better than my sons," Garcia replies. "Romano obviously believes I murdered his mother. I could never trust my son in so many ways, especially when we're in conflict."

"Hopefully, I can convince my family to return to the U.K. as soon as the shit hits the fan. I need to get Tina away from Harry as soon as possible. Even if she is carrying his child." 

"How long do you determine to remain in excile?"

"Few years maybe. Until I'm off my closest enemies radar."

"What about your other daughter? Bethany isnt it?"

"Audrey must never find out."

Harry and Tina, recieve their scholarship, as does Bethany, Greg and Dominic. Harry tells Tina he had weird flashbacks involving his father, when he touched his shoulder, earlier that day. Harry and Tina, decide to celebrate. Tina says she has something to tell Harry, but will return hme first to get changed. Tina intends to tell Harry she is pregnant. Tina and Harry share a tender kiss and declare their love for each other, before going their seperate ways. Harry seems rather chirpy. However, neither Harry or Tina, woud see each other, again, for sixteen years. 

When Tina and Greg arrive home, they find Billy tending to their injured mother,  who appears to have been attacked by an intruder, who seems to have been knocked unconscious. Billy informs his offsprings, that a criminal organization, is coming after him and it has put them all in danger and they will need to get out of the country immediately. 

Meanwhile, Bethany walks to the Ladies bathroom at Hex­- Ville High, feeling rather somber, after seeing Harry and Tina being lovey dovey. With school out, the halls are rather quiet ad upon exiting the bathroom, Bethany hears noises and this make Bethany nervous. She calls out, but there is no reply. She goes to open one of the main doors, but its locked. Then she goes to another. Locked also. Bethany starts to panic. Suddenly, Bethany is captured and chloroformed by fugitive, Albert Kray. 

Jeff, Hank and some heavies, one of which is a female, arrive at a deserted Hangar, where the Heist is supposed to take place. They meet operatives of the secret organization, 'Gemini,' and the surprisingly the CEO, Carla Morrisons father is present. Jeff and Hank recognize him immediately. He unveils the exchange inside the Cargo Plane and its Meteor Infected People, along with the Extraterrestrial Meteor Rocks and Diamonds. He is willing to sell the lot for $20, 000, 000, which is a bargain in truth.  Suudenly, two of the male heavies, along with female, who Jeff and Hank came with, draw their guns. 


"FBI!!" Shouts the female.

Jeff and Hank freeze on the spot. The pilot of the plane, revves up the Jet Engine to maximum power, The female agent , is quickly and brutally sucked into the right engine, which instantly kills and blows out the engine. Everyone else dives for cover and then a shoot out ensues. Carlas father is wounded and Hank shoots two of the agents dead. Jeff and Hank make a bolt for it, not before Hank grabs the case of $20 million. They get into the getway vehicle and make their escape. 

"Now what do we do?" Jeff rages.

"I don't know, but this is not, how it should have happened," Hank panics. 

"Federal officers are now in pursuit, as well as an FBI Helicopter. 

"If Im going down, then you're coming with me,"  Hank threats, pulling a gun on Jeff. 

"You fucking asshole."

I was paid to set you up, but I guess the Law has been one step ahead of us, as well as the Crocetti's. Suppose I can kill two Birds with one stone. Or, is that too greedy?"

"Were we ever really friends Hank?"

"I don't Jeff. I guess getting rich, is better than being loyal."

"Being rich, won't make up for losing Tina. That's if you get away with murdering Ferderal Agents."

"And you'll never be there to expose me. Now, just shut up for five minutes and I may have a change of heart."

The chase intensifies, with the Chopper in hot pursuit. Hank goes off road and onto uneven ground. Jeff sees his opportunity and fights Hank for the gun. Eventually, the car spirals out of control and overturns.  The two are knocked unconscious momentarily. Regaining consciousness, Jeff attempts and escape, through the passenger window, with the $20 million dollars. Hanks shoots out at Jeff, who is grazed on the shoulder. Jeff drops the case, which flies open and the money scatters. Hank attempts to murder Jeff, but the gun jams and the two brawl, with Jeff managing to get the upper hand. Sirens can be heard, as the two wanted criminals become desperate. Hank gets caught in a Bear Trap and Jeff makes a run for it, through the woods. Hank is left at the mercy of authorities, who arrest him.

HEX-VILLE HIGH SCHOOL


Bethany regains consciouness in a desolate area of the school. She is finds herself, at the mercy of escaped fugitive and former Law Enforcer, Albert Kray. Bethany realizes, that Kray is out of control and he will do anything to prevent the vulnerble teenager from leaving. Bethany tries to push herself away from him, but he corners her. Albert has a score to settle. And by the looks of it, it won't be pleasant. 

"Now, now. That's no way to say thank you, for everthing I've done for you," Albert smugly says. "But, then again, you already did that, by selling me down the river."

Bethany freezes, as the guilt is almost written all over her face. She is too afraid, to acknowledge that she is the one, who got Kray arrested. 

"Don't answer that," Kray insists, who pulls a chair beside Bethany, who resides on the floor. 

Bethany is still feeling the effects of the Chloroforme, which is making her vulnerable to a possible assault. Kray brushes his hand through Bethany's hair. She do much to refrain from allowing him to do it. 

"Why Beth? Why you? After everything?" Kray asks. 

"I don't know what you mean?" Bethany denies. 

"It was you, who sold me out. Keep lying and I will hurt you." 

Bethany realizes, Albert will hurt her. She figures, if she admits telling the police of his illegal activities in Grand Theft Auto, he may let her go. But, it seems, that may not be the case. 

"Like you said, why would I? After everything, you've done for me."

"And what did I do, to make you betray me?" 

Bethany takes a deep breath. Her life hangs in the balance. Tears falling down her face. 

"You groomed me. You would have.." Bethany hesitates. "You know."

It soon touches a nerve and Kray smurks at Bethany's suggestion.

"Fucked you?" Kray acknowledges bluntly.

"And I'm not the first am I?" 

"I don't know what you're talking about. Whoever, told you these fairy tales, are complete liars." 

"No, my sources checked out. And threaten me, as much as you want. But, I won't give names. Of course you offered to help get them the future they wanted, being the lawful abiding copper you were. You manipulated them, their and eventually, destroyed their dignity. You raped them. And being in such power, with your connections, nobody would believe them. And in case it slipt your mind, one of your victims, killed themselves, two years ago. I suspect, blackmailig Glenda Robinson, in her sexual antics with Male students, worked to your masterplan."

It soon dawns on Albert, who the victim is referring to. He knows Bethany has something on him, but has used his recent activities against him instead, to get him arrested.

"So, you followed me. You cunning little Bitch," Kray grunts. 

"I knew you had secrets. I found your secret hideout. I thought you might have had girls stashed away somewhere, but your GTA was good enough for me."

Kray in anger, grips Bethany's arm, who can't react quick enough to pull away and he gets in her face. He's seething and Bethany is terrified. 

"Well, guess I underestimated you, Beth," Kray whsipers. "And that really upsets me."

Bethany begins to sweat and is paralysed. Kray is too strong for her. 

"Please, Albert," Bethany begs. "You're already a wanted man. Hurting me, won't make this any easier on yourself."

"Then, what have I got to lose. This really hurts Beth. You were always my favourite."

Bethany worst fears, look like they're about to become reality. 

"What do you mean?"

"Well, I didn't get you in private, just to interrigate you and scare you. I'm going to do to you, what I did to them Whores. Take your dignity."

Bethany gasps. 

"Revenge is a dish, best served cold."

Suddenly, Albert throws Bethany to the floor and puts his full body weight on top of her to trap her. Bethany lets out piercing screams. Her cries for help, echo throughout the halls and rooms of the entire school, but nobody can hear her. Forcing her down, Kray put his hand up Bethany's dress and rips off her underwear. Bethany kicks out, but the fight is getting her nowhere. 

"Please, Beth, don't fight," Kray intimidates. "It's a losing battle. Just let me in."

"No! No! No!" Bethany screams. 

Kray, then takes down her pants and prevents Bethany from hitting out at him, by pinning her hands behind her. He then has unlawful Intercourse with her, as he goes ahead with his sexual attack. As he penetrates her, Bethany loses her will to fight and gives up. She is almost catatonic. 


Carla spots Dominic with Charlotte, coming out of a Suburban Burger Shop, who are celebrating his Graduation, . She intercepts them. 

"Dominic," Carla speaks. "Have you seen Bethany?"

"No, I haven't," Dominic replies. "Has she not gone home?"

"No, she hasn't. I've checked, with the few friends, she knows. And the Mcquires are not home. Probably, gone to celebrate, Tina and Gregs graduation." 

"What about the Wilsons. She's got that dying love for Harry."

"I did, but I was met with hostility, by Mary. Almost as if I disturbed some serious shit going down."

Dominic glances to Charlotte, whos never met Carla.

"Oh, I'm sorry, this is Charlotte. Charlotte this is Carla. Bethany's...sister."

Carla gives a whatever smile. 

"Hi."

Charlotte nods awkwardly. Carla puffs her cheeks, with no interest. It seems she is surprisingly more interested for the welfare of her youngest sibling. 

"Right well, I've got to find Bethany," Carla insists. 

"What about the High School, maybe she's there," Dominic suggests. 

"What about the High School?" 

"Maybe that's where Bethany is."

"Why would she go there?"

"To pine over Harry. 

".........I doubt it. Have a nice day."

Carla marches off, but in deep thought. Has she considered Dominic's suggestion. 

It's around 7pm. A car pulls up outside the Wilson's house. A male and a female are inside. 

"Here we are Margie. Lets surprise them," Bob encourages. 

"Don't just barge in there, knock first," Margie warns her husband. "You haven't seen Jonathan in two years."

"I still owe him everything. He saved my life in Vietnam. I can't wait to share my gift with him."

Bob and Margie get out of their car and proceed to the front door, which appears to be ajar. Bob, cautiously, pushes the door open. The couple are met by a Horror scene. Harry is cradelling his dead and bloodied mother, Mary in his arms, with his bluegeoned, father Jon, near by. 

"Mary, Mother of God," Bob gasps. 

Margie screams.

Tina refuses to leave, but Billy demands she stop making a spectacle of herself and warns if she stays, she could be putting herself in harms way. The call for their flight is announced and they all head to the Aircraft. 

Hex - Ville High School. 

Bethany has just suffered, an horrific sexual attack by Albert Kray. The crooked cop, has raped her. Bethany lays on her back, frozen in utter shock. Kray without so much as remorse, lights a cigarette. Bethany pulls herself up. Bruises are visible on her arms and she is in pain and emotional hurt. Kray stares at his victim, blowing smoke in her face and flicking ash across the room.  

"Don't feel so bad," Kray sighs. "I'm sure in time, you'll understand, why I did, what I did."

Bethany can't bare to look at her attacker. She is absolutely digusted. As she looks away, she spots, bug spray on a counter and than quickly glances to the High School keys, hooked onto Alberts trousers. Bethany staggers to her feet, a bit disorientated. Her breathing going faster, almost hyperventilating. She slowly makes her way to the counter. Kray thinks nothing of it, as he assumes Bethany is way too weak to escape. However, Bethany's will to survive is too great, despite her vulnerability. He keeps puffing away. 

"Let this be a lesson Beth," Kray warns. 

"Right," Beth, answers, taking a deep breath. "Now, what?"

Albert realizes what Bethany means and flicks his cigarette away.  

"Oh, you mean, am I going to let you go?"

"And what if you don't? You will either have to keep me prisoner or....."

Kray smirks at Bethany's insinuation. 

"Kill you?"

Bethany looks at the Spray. This is her one shot and freedom. 

"Well, after all, you are a Fugitive. You can't exactly hide forever. And you have to understand Albert, I will have to tell authorities, that you...."

Kray thinks for a moment and gets to his feet. Bethany senses Kray approaching her. He places his hand on her shoulder and shivers, feeling sick. He turns her around and gives her a menacing look.  He strokes her face. 

"Bethany? Cup cake. I told you, you were my favourite."

"That's another thing. You told them other girls, the same thing. Did you tell them that after you...."

"TOOK THEIR VIRGINITY!! " YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCKING BASTARD!! YOU REALLY THINK ANY DECENT MAN WOULD LOOK AT YOU?!"

Kray's rage terrifies Bethany. Tears falling down her face. His persona quickly changes and starts laughing and mocking his victim. 

"When I was fucking you, were imagining me as Harry? That prolonged desire you craved for. I bet you would have liked it rougher."

Bethany sees red and she puts her face into his. 

"Fuck off, you Cunt!" Bethany curses.

Bethany knees Kray in the groin and grabs the Bug Spray and squirts the subtance in his eyes. Kray screams out in pain, as he stumbles back. Bethany shoves him to the ground and grabbles for the keys. Kray attempts to stop her, but she kicks her assailant in the mouth and cuts his lip. As he rides round in pain, Bethany nervously attempts to unlock the door, with a batch of keys. As Kray gets to his feet, Bethany manages to get the door unlocked. Kray charges after her, but she deliberately jams his hand in the door. Bethany with all her might runs as fast as she can, through the dark corridors of the High School. She finds doors which are locked and desperately unlocks them with several key cuts. Albert staggers after her, but she manages to stay ahead of him. Bethany spots the Main doors to the school and runs to it. Bethany manages to unlock the front entrance, but is grabbed from behind by Kray and thrown into the School lockers, head first. Bethany is briefly concussed, but kicks out and injures Albert again.  Bethany screams out profusely and Kray remains in hot pursuit. She stumbles into the girls locker room, pulling them down, in attempt to stop the Fugitive from reaching her. Stumbling into the Showers, she presses switches on the wall, turning hot water on. The teen is running out of energy and trips and falls, near a wall. Soaking wet, Bethany is trapped, as Albert Kray enters the shower room and corners her. In his hand, is a wire and it appears, he is about to commit murder. A bloodied nosed and red eyed Kray stretches the wire, as Bethany awaits her fate. Kray steps towards her, when all of a sudden from out of nowhere, Carla Morrison, appears behind him and knocks him unconscious with a Crow Bar. 

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HER!!" Carla rages. 

Bethany is shocked, surprised and relieved all at once, by the heroics her elder sister has just done. Carla approaches her youngest sibling and kneels beside her. Carla pulls Bethany into her arms and hugs her tightly. Bethany cries in her sisters arms.

"Its OK. I'm here. I'm not gonna let anybody hurt you," Carla assures Bethany.

AREA 51

Government officials and Scientists are under intense scrutiny, as research into project 'Gemini' is investigated by the FBI. It looks like the project could potentially be put on indefinite hold or suspended, as it is disccovered Espionage within the project, as it is revealed, Morrison, as a CEO of an underground version of 'Gemini,' had taken upon himself to use, Data to commit mass Embezzlement, Fraud, Trafficking, abduction and Mass Murder. Using scientists from the actual project and random citizens to participate in trialing Human Testing in Alien Organisms, based on the 1901 Extraterrestrial Meteor Shower. However, Morrison has had back up copies of information during his tenure. What the the CIA or FBI don't know, is that his information has been forwarded onto Carla, his daughter. 

Morrison Senior, is shown dead being dumped down a Sewage System by Garcia and Romano, not far from the Wilsons Cul De Sac and Emergency Services Sirens can  heard, along with flashing red lights. Romano taps his father on the shoulder.

"That's one way to save a father son relationship," Romano states.

"Guess, that's one way to try save all our asses tonight," Garcia replies. "After all you tried setting me up."

"And you - me." 

"Who'd have thought, the man who was hired to kill you, was....."

"I suppose, the good ones are the ones to look out for."

"I knew Wilson was blackmailed into assassinating you."

"By Mcquire?" 

"I was going to kill Wilson, when he came looking for you. Despite you trying to set me up"

"Oh, how touching Dad. Thank you."

"I gave Mcquire $100, 000 to pay Wilson, into thinking he was really going to murder you. That was never going to happen. Your my son."

"And that $100, 000 is now in the trunk of the car."

Garcia and Romano proceed to their vehicle. 

"Ah, shit!" Garcia groans. "What do we do about you know?" 

"He's a good kid. He was in love and he was betrayed by someone he loved. Just unfortunate about one of his victims. The young man doesn't need to be punished for that kind of betrayal now, does he? Besides, I know somebody that may help us all. And our connections to Gemini. Let's just say, it's a good deed for us all," Romano explains. 

"And the money stashed in Wilsons basement?" 

"Oh, you mean the dirty money in our trunk? He'll get it, when the cover up is complete. I mean, nobody will think twice about where he got the money, now, will they?"

"And what Cover up are we talking about son? Don't forget Hank Willis may talk. Two Fed's are dead at that Hangar and the Merchandize is in my name. I wanna know who sold me out to the FBI and compromised this second 'Gemini' project."

"Possibly somebody, who's been playing, us, Wilson and Mcquire."

"Mcquire is on a Plane across the Atlantic now. He'll be gone for a few years."

"Well, who ever ruined our Master Plan Organization, committing espionage, has forced us to dump the ring leader in a Sewage Dump."

Garcia nods. 

"You didn't answer my question son. What cover up?" Garcia demands. 

"Hypnotism. One way to rid all your problems," Romano answers, opening the drivers door. "Oh, and don't worry about Willis, he'd be completely suicidal if thought about opening his mouth. 

Both Garcia and Romano get in the car. 

"I'll speak to some contacts, get them to approach the boy and help him out. When this blows over, we'll resurface and pretend nothing like this ever happened."

Garcia then has a realization.

"Ah fuck! What about Jeff Wilson? When he finds out about his parent murder. I'm gonna be on the top list of suspects."

Romano laughs a little, as he turns the ignition on.  

"Yeah, that's another predicament." 

"He will find out and come back." 

"Maybe not. Maybe, I'll use my sources, track him down. And keep him sweet."

Garcia doesn't take his son's suggestion too kindly. 

"Yeah, good thinking son, that will definately not make you look guilty," Garcia sarcastically states. "I mean after all, you did blackmail him to set me up."

"This new set of circumstances has changed everything. The one consolation is, that, the main asset of this operation is dumped down there."

"Yes, and we have blood on our hands to prove it. The Government will possibly be storming Area 51 now and our names will possibly be listed as suspects."

"Maybe not.  For a long time, he kept us under wraps, what with his connections to Hex-Ville and his wife and daughter Carla."

"Oh, so, you knew Bethany was Mcquires daughter also did you?"

"Possibly, one of the reasons, Morrison wanted one over Billy. It was nice of you though to take the full blame, but you know. We're both here now, having a Father Son bond." 

"Thank you for forgiving me."

"No, thank you father," Romano said. 

Garcia puffs, nervously, knowing whats at stake. 

"Are you sure about, what ever hypnotism you have up your sleeve, with this psychiatrist?"

Romano taps his father on his shoulder. 

"Relax. And let me worry about Jeff. I'll make sure he doesn't think, we killed his parents."

The Crocetti's drive off into the night, after disguarding the body of the former CEO of the criminalized company 'Gemini.' 

In the distance, sitting undetected in a car, is Oswald Johnson, with a listening device, resembling a small satellite dish, that he was pointing in the direction of the Crocetti's. He witnessed and heard everything. What does he intend to do?

Episode 141. Murder Most Horrid. Part 6. 

 

Harry is put in an interrogation room, with two detectives. Otto Cole sits beside him, representing the Eighteen year old, as his Lawyer, even though Harry has not be arrested or charged with a double Homicide. The Detectives offer coffee, to grief streicken Harry, who has lost two of the most important people in his life. He cannot comprehend, the brutal end, his parents met. Otto opens his files to take down notes. The two Detectives taking out the interview, don't seem to take pity on Harry, by the expressions on their faces. Especially, Detective Marino, who looks at him rather cold, as if he suspects Harry is not as innocent, as he seems, despite them insisting he's not under arrest. Marino stares at a lost Harry, while Otto finds this a rather bizarre act, rather annoying by the Detective. 

"Are we going to proceed with the interview?" Otto asks. 

"Yeah, sure," Marino bluntly replies. 

Harry stares at the ground and glances to Otto, who offers support. Marino takes out a sheet of paper to take down notes and Detective Levy coughs. Marino begins the interview. 

"First I'd like to offer my condolences, Harry," Marino starts. "This is very much a tragic and brutal attack on your parents, to which injuries suffered do much - were fatal. From what Forensic evidence have gathered, your Mother, Mary Wilson, suffered a single blow to the head, with a blunt object and a broken second cervical vertebrae and fractured left leg and right arm, which is presumed due to a fall through the barriers of the 2nd floor staircase and into the Living Room. Your Father, Jonathan Wilson, also suffered a fractured skull, blows to the chest and two fractured arms, both is also presumebly with the same weapon, which is unaccounted for. This attack on your father, however, appeared to take place downstairs. 

Harry listens to Marino's findings and it makes him feel uncomfortable. Otto grips on Harry's arm, knowing it's not what Harry wants to hear, as he loved them very much. Otto turns to Marino.

"Can we leave out the gory details from now on, please? Otto insists. "My client had to endure holding his deceased mother in his arms."

"I'm just establishing the facts, Mr Cole," Marino adds. 

Levy leans forwards, clasping his hands together. 

"Also, there appears to be blood stains in a second bedroom, upstairs. Although, no signs of a struggle. Once, those DNA results come through, we will be able those persons. It's also pointed out, that we'll find your DNA on your parents."

"And? What are you implying?" Otto interrupts, not liking the presumption, Levy is making. 

"Maybe, you should start allowing your client to answer the questions from now on, Cole. I'm sure you have good intensions, but this is serious. Just like the crime, Harry's fugitive brother is wanted for."

Harry acknowledges this by frowning. It becomes rather concerning to him, what with the recent trauma he's suffered. The last thing he needs, is a sibling wanted for a big crime also. 

"Jeff?" Harry gasps. "I don't understand. Wanted for what?"

"Don't worry, your innocent little head about that," Marino sarcastically laughs. "We'll get to that. But, lets get back to the topic in hand. Would you like to tell us, where you were between, Four O' Clock and Seven today?"

"Don't answer that," Otto tells Harry. 

"If he's innocent, then he'll have no problem in answering a question, a five year old can simplify." 

Harry is extremley scared and grips his seat and starts to shake. Marino thinks he can make Harry, crack under pressure. But, is Harry capable of a double Homicide? Especially, on his own Mother and Father. Marino gorks at Harry, quite smug. It's clear the Detective enjoys his job, especially when it comes to interrogation. He sees Harry as an easy target, to implicate. 

"So, Harry. Where were you, between four and seven today?"

Harry struggles to answer and he starts to sweat. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door. In steps a female officer, who informs Marino, there is a phone, regarding the murder scene and insists he take it in his office. Otto aggressively, looks back at Harry and tells Levy, to hold off questioning, until he gets back. Otto, shakes his head in dismay, at the way, Marino conducted himself in the questioning to Harry. Marino heads into his office and answers the phone. It is not forensics or any other Law Enforcer. It's Romano Crocetti and this starts to alarm Marino. Why would a Mafia Bosses son, call a Police Detective. 

"Marino, here."

"OK, Detective, this is how it's gonna go down. And you'd better not fuck with me, or I'll fuck with you," Romano threats. 

"Romano Crocetti, what do you want?" Marino snaps. 

"The biggest favour you will ever do for me. My father doesn't like me doing business with you, but you hold the sources, to a specific Psychotherapist or should I say hypnotist."

"Oh dear, your Mental Health has taken a turn for the worst has it?"

"Not mine, but you can help save somebody elses."

"Who's?"

"Harry Wilsons."

Marino turns around, noticing his office door is still ajar and he rushes to kick the door shut. Marino realizes, Romano may know something about the double Wilson murder. Marino starts to pace, nervously. 

"Let me guess, you had something to do with the murder?" Marino assumes. 

"Well, not exactly. We did however discard  a great inconvenience and it won't be a problem for hundreds, if not thousands anymore," Romano admits. 

"Who?"

"Morrison, the Espionage CEO of the underground 'Gemini,' project."

Marino is shocked.

"What?! Word has it, the FBI nearly captured him at a Hangar, nearly ninety miles away. They lost him, when...."

"Yeah, I know about Jeff and Hank's chase with the Law. My father and I had a little feud going on. I'm sure you remember me thinking he had my mother killed - well, I guess we both got too carried away. We both tried to be the Mastermind in our own downfall and the Wilson's, Willis and Lawyer Mcquire got too involved, professionally and personally."

"Too personal the former CEO of the underground corporation, turns up and gets killed.  Where did you find him?"

"I'll tell you after you help me out?"

"What is it, about this Wilson kid, that I've currenly got under interrogation?"

"I've tried to avoid any connections to this ' Gemini' corporation, unlike my father. But, my father pushed my buttons. Well, I don't want to push anymore red ones.  And unlike my father, Murder isn'y my style for silence. I've known Harry, since he was a kid. He's a good heart deep down and this betrayal....."

"What?" 

"Let him go. You have nothing on him."

"Let him go?"

"Please, Marino."

"Whatever."

"Do, this favour for me and whatever contacts you have with - that side of the FBI, we can pretend 'Gemini' and Morrison didn't exist."

"Romano, like yourself, I've tried to avoid contact with 'Gemini' and being an honest Detective."

"So honest, you turned a blind eye to Pedophile, Officer Kray for years. But, that's one more thing you don't have to worry about. He's in a coma. He raped Billy Mcquires illegitimate daughter today.

"OK, OK," Marino agrees. "I'll track this Psychiatrist down.

"One more thing, I need you to keep Jeff Wilson sweet. If you can find him.Assure him, the murder of his parents have been taken seriously and that you will do anything to clear his name from the FBI's wanted list. Tell him to lay low for a while."

"Anything else?"

"Yeah, thanks. I'll make sure you are rewarded with a job well done."

"I take it, you and your father kissed and made up."

"Yeah, well, it is the fourth of July after all. Be speaking to you."

Romano hangs up. Marino heads back to the interrogation room and tells a surprised Harry, that he's allowed to leave, with no charges and apologises. Harry is stunned and Otto is relieved for Harry and surprised. As Harry and Otto exit, Levy is gobsmacked by Marino's sudden change of heart. He is not best pleased. 

"What's going on Man?" Levy grunts. "What was that phone call?"

"None of your goddam business, that's what!" Marino shouts, leaving the room and Levy scratching his head.

Jeff returns to Hex- Ville, even though the Law and Federal Government are possibly looking for him. Now, a Fugitive, following an exchange at a Hangar, gone wrong, Jeff goes to his Cul De Sac, where he lived and finds Police and Investigators outside his home, where his parents have recently been murdered. Some neighbours are still watching the presence of Law Enforcement, whom have put a block around the house. Jeff is on edge and is desperate to find Harry, his younger brother. If Jeff is spotted, he will most likely been arrested there and then. In the moment, that's the least of his worries. To him, he will suspect, their death will be down to the Heist gone wrong and will be connected to the Crocetti's. Jeff is none the wiser, that project 'Gemini' had an involvement in the plane job. He is about to proceed into the Cul De Sac, when Detective Marino intercepts him. Jeff senses a threat and clenches his fist. Marino goes on the defensive. 

"Whoa, Jeff. Take it easy. I'm not here to take you in. To be honest, I'm here to do you a favour," Marino claims. 

"Detective Marino. What do you want?" Jeff frowns. 

"I want you to trust me."

 Well, I'm sorry, Detective, but you might as well kill me. Coz, I know Romano Crocetti and his old man, or Mcquire had something to do with my parents death," Jeff figures. 

"You got it all wrong Jeff. Neither Romano or Garcia Crocetti had anything to do with your parents death. I can't vouch for William Mcquire."

Jeff suspects Romano sent Marino to find him and he gets very anxious. 

"Crocetti sent you, didn't he? How long have you been in his back pocket?"

"Looking for revenge?"

"Uh - yeah. Him and Hank Willis were gonna feed me to the Feds, after that so called Heist or exchange was thwarted. I was blackmailed into that job, as my fathers hopes at becoming Mayor, was going to be extinguished. Well, somebody saw to that literately and my mother was a loose end."

"Lets keep a level head"

"A level head? The Crocetti's had wished they'd never fucked with me."

Marino glances to the Wilsons house, still under investigation. He's hoping, they haven't spotted him and Jeff in conversation. Marino cautiously moves towards Jeff, whom is still very distrustful of the Detective. 

"Come with me to my car and we'll discuss, the best cause for us," Marino says. 

"If you're gonna kill me, why should I make it easy for you to do it in your car? Just kill me right here," Jeff snaps. 

Marino takes out his gun and hands and places it in Jeff's hand to get his trust. But, the mood, Jeff is in, he's on the verge of committing murder himself. Marino steps back. Jeff is surprised by Marino's move. The Detective is desperate for Jeff to understand the situation. 

"You want me to shoot you?" Jeff replies, stunned. 

"No, I want you to trust me," Marino pleads. "Please, get in the car." 


The Crocetti's are holding up in a safehouse. Romano is waiting on Marino's update on Jeff Wilsons status and if he can persuade Jeff to lay low. Garcia is wondering, whom his son is orchestrating the Psychotheropist plot with. Romano insists his contact will pay off. 

Harry is staying with Otto Cole and the lawyer assures the teen, he has his full support. Harry cannot get his head around the tragic events. It was supposed to be a day of celebration. In one day, he's lost both his parents to a brutal slaying and the love of his life, Tina, who's abruptly left the country, unbeknown to him, shes carrying their unborn child. To Harry, both scenario's are shrouded by mystery and the reason's why. Otto, too, is left in the dark at the bizarre circumstances of his friends murders. Otto receives a phone call, stating that Albert Kray is in the Hospital and that he raped Bethany. Otto informs his colleagues, he will refuse to represent Kray, if he recovers. Harry's day has just got worse and worse and no sign of his big brother, Jeff, who also has gone off the radar. 

Bethany is still traumatized following his sexual attack by Kray. She is full of praise for her older sister, Carla, who came to her rescue at the High School. Marilyn tells Carla, she should have hit him harder and hopes he doesn't wake up. 

Harry looks out a bedroom, looking up at a full moon heartbroken. Meanwhile, also with a broken heart at thirty five thousand feet in the air,  Tina cries silently, grasping her stomach, as her future daughter grows inside her. 


TWO WEEKS LATER 
HEX- VILLE CEMETARY


It's the day of Mary and Jonathan Wilsons funeral. The service has many mourners in attendance. Harry is accompanied by Otto. Bethany, Carla and Marilyn are there too. The soon to be retiring Mayor is in attendance. Also in the background, are the Crocetti's. When the Vicar finishes his prayers and final words, they lower the coffins into the ground and Harry has disturbing visions of the brutality that his parents suffered. Harry is left alone, momentarily, to have a private goodbye. As Bethany, Carla and Marilyn reach the exit of the church yard, the Mason Twins spot Bethany. Felicity makes a cruel comment, based on Bethany's rape and Carla sees red. Carla barges up to Felicity and punches her in the face. Felicity throws a back hander back, but Carla ducks out the way. Carla grabs her by the hair and slams her face into the bonnet of  a parked car. Bethany pulls her sister away, as Felicity is left with a bloodied nose. 

"What is wrong with you?" Fallon gasps, as the sight of her twin sisters attack. 

"Shut up!" Carla rages. "Fucking skank!" 

A mourner is not pleased, by Carla's outburst and pulls her away. 

"Watch your language lady. You're outside a Church for goodness sake."

"She's broke my nose," Felicity screams in pain. 

"If there was any good left in this world, people like these two, would be in the ground. Along with Albert Kray," Carla curses. She turns to her mother. "You're right about one thing mother - I should have hit him harder."

This reference appears to indicate, Kray survived and could go back to prison. Onlookers are horrified by Carla's attack and Bethany sees that Harry, saw the whole charade. She feels embarrassed and has the need to embrace him. Harry, however, is chauffered away. In the distance, Jeff watches on, with tears rolling down his face. He glances to a suitcase full of cash, before jumping into a car and driving off. Jeff would not see Harry again, for another Sixteen years. Romano and Garcia agree to approach, Harry as soon as possible and put his mind at rest.

Episode 141. Murder Most Horrid. Part 8. 

 

It's Twenty Four Hours since Mary and Jon Wilson's funeral. Harry doesn't intend to return to the house, he once called home. Too much pain and a reminder of what occurred the previous fortnight. Harry is still, stopping with Otto. It's around 7:15 a.m., Otto is getting ready to go to work, when Harry abruptly leaves the bedroom and heads to the door. Otto wonders why Harry is in a rush to get out early. 

"Hey, Harry, where you off to? You shoulde be resting," Otto points out. 

"I need to see the Police," Harry replies. 

"What for?"

".........Something important."

Harry heads out, leaving Otto curious. As Harry approaches the local Police Station, a car pulls up beside the Eighteen year old. The left rear window rolls down and Romano Crocetti sticks his head out. Harry appears to be cautious of Romano. 

"Where you off to Harry?" Romano asks. 

"I can't do this man," Harry panics. "I have to -"

"Have to what kid?"

Harry shivers in fear. It appears Harry knows more, than he's letting on concerning his parents murder. And it also looks like, he doesn't want to be seen with Romano, the Crime Boss's son. Romano glances towards the Police Station, the other side of the road to see if Law Enforement have seen Harry or him. 

"Get in the car Harry," Romano suggests. 

Harry seems scared to and takes a partial step back. 

"Why?" Harry worries. 

"Because, if I let you go in that Police Station, we're all done. And yes, that means, you."

Harry hesitates briefly, before getting in the car and driving off. Opposite side Romano, is his father Garcia. Harry is very nervous, being in the same vehicle as the Mafia family, Crocetti's, who's father son feud, got the Wilsons, Mcquires and Gemini involved in their conspiracies and inevitably compromised the fraudulent underground project Gemini II. Could these scenario's coincide with the Wilsons massacre?

"Where's my brother?" Harry queries. 

"Gone on a Vacation," Romano states. "I'm doing him a favour, for as long as I can. Hank Willis though is ultimately trying to throw him under a bus. So, looks like you won't see your older sibling for a few years. Until, these investigations die down. My father and I can only do so much. And I guess the only cause of action to stop, you from wasting our resources in saving us, is to help you," Romano explains. 

"You're gonna kill me?" Harry figures. 

"That may have been us once upon a time Harry. But, losing a son, would destroy me," Garcia speaks. "Just like it's destroyed you. You're in too much pain already and we don't want to disrespect your grieving, but we have to make you see sense. What my son intends to do for you now, will take all that guilt away."

"And what about this guy, that was in my house? Where is he now?" 

"Don't worry, your head about him. He will be the least of your worries, once the anxiety is deterred," Romano encourages. 

They drive Harry about fifty miles south to House in the middle of nowhere. The Crocetti's escort Harry into the house and meet with Psycotherapist, Desmond Arbogast. He's around his early Forties and the Crocetti's hand him Cash, of around Fifty Thousand Dollars. This concerns Harry, as he does feel, he's about to meet an end. Feeling terrified, Harry is about to dart out of the house, when a big Guard thwarts his attempts. Romano assures Harry it's for his own good. Harry is tranquilized and placed on a bed. Arbogast stands one side of the bed, while the Crocetti's stand the otherside." 

"So, I figure you want everything wiped out?" Arbogast asks. 

"Not, exactly," Romano replies. 

Garcia and Arbogast frown at this. 

"What are you talking about son? If not everything, then what the hell are we doing here?"

"If all the memories are wiped, people will start asking questions, as to why he has no recollection of them being dead. What we must do, is to remove the actual facts in his mind. He will be aware his parents were murdered. However, the reasons why, will be estinguished. I can't just risk, him repressing the facts. It's too risky. We could make him believe, he found his parents dead and that's it."

"Erasing our's and Morrisons presence in the house?"

"Precisely. And he must have this belief, that Jeff disappeared following a random Heist gone wrong. He will only have a mystery to live with and in his mind, One Hundred Thousand Dollars funded to him by a relative. Once this is done, we go underground and leave Harry to - live his life."

The Crocetti's agree to the compromise and allow Arbogast to go ahead with the procedure. Arbogast stands over a semi conscious Harry and places his palms above Harry's head. The Psychothrapist looks into Harry's eyes. 

"You won't remember any of this," Arbogast whispers. 

There is a bright flash of light, then darkness. 

Harry, awakes in Otto's apartment, as the Lawyer awakes him. Harry says he was really tired. Otto asks him as to what happened at the Police Station? Harry's has no memory of going to the Police Station or the Crocetti's. It appears, Harry's Psychic abilities have gone, along with certain memories. (for 24 years at least). Harry is aware his parents were murdered, but don't know the reason behind it. Harry continues by saying, he must have slept most of the afternoon. 

Bethany discovers she's pregnant by Albert Kray. Barry Stiller meets with Carla in a secret location and delivers the devastating news, that her father is possibly dead and gives her files on all the information, based on the underground version, Project Gemini. Carla's father suspected a leek in the operation and feared the FBI or CIA  were closing in. Barry and her father had been friends since college. The official project on Area 51, has been shut down, following numerous arrests. Barry now has to go underground. He states there's a secure bank account that hasn't been discovered and that her father, would want her to eventually continue his legacy, with the information given to her. 

"What happened to my father?" Carla asks.

"Hank in prison, said he was wounded by Fed's at a Hangar during a heist, but was not found. He either died from his wounds or -" Barry informs.

"Or somebody else finished the job."

"Maybe."

"If that's true, considering my fathers body has not been found, then revenge will be a dished best served," Carla threats.

"Kray used to say that," Barry adds. 

"Kray is now wearing an orange jump suit, with a scar on his head I gave him. Give it time and make them sweat. The Bastards won't know, what hit them."

Tina comes to terms with her new life in England, away from Harry. Jeff lives a life in exile. Dominic and Charlotte begin their new life together. Albert Kray recovers and is sent back to Prison and Harry recieves a present from a supposed rich relative, setting up his college fund. Harry is seen leaving Hex- Ville in a Taxi cab, as Bethany watches on.

Francis Bay, Long Island.

 

WILSON HOUSEHOLD

 

Harry awakes, next to current wife Bethany. He is completely aware of who he is married to and that her secrets, are revealed to him, by touch. His psychic abilities have returned, which he briefly had for two weeks back in July 1979, before they were taken, due to a memory wipe, orchestrated by the Italian / American Mafia, Crocetti's. He intends to play Bethany at her own, to get as much information out of her, due to his abilities, to eventually have her encarcerated. 

The police arrive to question Benjamin, regarding the explosion at the Gas Station, which Emma caused in an attempt to murder him. Benjamin claims, he must have left moments before the explosion. The officer informs Benjamin, that the attendant and a customer were killed in the explosion and that witnesses, said they saw a possible stolen pick up truck chasing him, while on his bike. His tyre prints were also one of the last vehicle's to leave the station, as well as the Pick Up Truck, which has yet to be accounted for. Benjamin claims he may have been going too fast to notice and was completely unaware there was anybody in pursuit. This is a lie, as Benjamin led Emma to a Quarry, where Benjamin has thought he'd killed Emma, by burying her. However she survived. Benjamin admits he is guilty of speeding, not possible Homicide. The officer finds his statement rather sketchy and sees that his bike has been polished well. Looks brand new. The female officer, gives him the benefit of the doubt for now, but will be return, if there are further developments. 

KINGS CAFE 

Dominic is prepared to deliver the tape, regarding Bethany's involuntary confession to Joe Hayes to Harry. However, Rebecca stops by with flowers, for him and Deloris, to apologize for Charlotte's passing. Deloris appreciates Rebeccas's kindness, despite what had happened in Manhattan a few months earlier (Eps 132, Fives A Crowd). Benjamin then arrives and this sends shivers down Dominic's spine and is reluctant to allow his daughter to embrace the man, who possibly conspired with his mother, to murder her mother. Dominic walks away into the kitchen, with the door partially open and takes out evidence, that he intends to give to Harry. In the Diner, Benjamin catches this moment from a distance, as Rebecca comforts Deloris. Could Benjamin be onto Dominic and intercept him? Dominic takes a deep breath and places the envelope in his pocket. Dominic walks out of view and leaves Benjamin to contemplate. 


WILSON RESIDENCE

Dusk. The Wilson's are ready to have dinner, when Bethany spots Benjamin outside the kitchen window and sneaks out to meet him, near the Estuary. It's rather windy. 

"Dominic is gonna is up to something. It's like he had something, that he didn't want anybody to see," Benjamin reveals.

"Did you make out what?" Bethany asks, concerned. 

"It was a brown envelope, with something, quite bulky."

Bethany thinks for a moment and comes to a realization, that Dominic may have the recording Charlotte once had given to her, prior to Joe Hayes death. This leaves Bethany in a dilemma and eventually comes to the conclusion, that Dominic is willing to sacrifice is his freedom to destroy them. 

"How do we handle this?" Benjamin panics. 

"Good question. This our biggest predicament yet," Bethany adds. "This is getting very dangerous."

Bethany heads back inside to prepare dinner, while Harry and Rebecca feel nervous around her. It makes them both feel sick to carry on with the pretence. As Bethany places the plates on the table, she kisses Harry on the head. As she does, Harry has psychic visions.

This vision shocks Harry so much, he vomits on the dining room floor. Rebecca jumps up in shock, but the abrupt sickness that Harry is suffering. Bethany rushes back to tend to him. Harry keels over, grasping his stomach. The pain in his stomach, creates pain in his fractured leg. Rebecca helps Harry to bed, leaving her to clean up his sick off, of the floor.

Metropolitan Hospital Center

Nurses discover Abraham's condition is improving, even though he's still in a Coma. They go to call Elaina, but cannot seem to get in touch with her - at their apartment or at the New York Times. 

Eric Lance suspects there is a development, while hacked into the Hospital Surveillance, but hesitates to find Elaina, as she is hiding, due to Emma possibly blowing the whole operation up in smoke, based on Bethany, Benjamins and Carla's conspiracies and the Cosmos. 

KINGS CAFE

Dominic watches Deloris sleep and gets really emotional, due to the discovery of their beloved Charlotte, who was brutally murdered by mysterious Benita and aided by Bethany. Dominic goes into his room and continues to ponder on what to do with Joe Hayes recorded evidence, who was hired by Eric Lance. 

WILSON RESIDENCE

It's close to 11:30 P.M. Harry feels sickened to be in the same bed, as an Incestuous Psychopath. Bethany is fast asleep. Rebecca heads downstairs to get a glass of water. As she heads back upstairs, she notices, even in darkness, the Attic door, is open.  She pulls a Hallway table underneath the Attic, stands up and closes it. Thinking nothing of it, she pulls the table back into the place and returns to her bedroom. She gets into bed and starts to dose off, when she hears a thud. She jumps up, scared a little. And gets out of bed. She grabs a pair of scissors and cautiously approaches the bedroom door and opens it, at a fast pace. Rebecca looks up and finds the Attic door on the floor and the Attic exposed, sending in quite a chill. Rebecca is scared, but doesn't call out to either Harry or Bethany. She maneouvres slowly across the Hallway, near the staircase and comes near the main Bathroom. She turns and looks over the bannister and down into the dark downstairs Hallway. Nothing or nobody can be seen. Rebecca still holds the Scissors, as her defence in hand. Then the bathroom door opens and a Human shadow appears, behind her. The unknown intruding approaches Rebecca from behind, with Becks still grasping her weapons. In the partial light, the intruder is revealed to be Emma. Emma carelessly places her hand gently on Rebecca's shoulder.

"Rebecca," Emma whispers. 

Rebecca reacts with devastating consequences. She instinctively plunges the Scissors into Emma's chest and stumbles and crashes through the bannisters and falls into the downstairs Hallway, with the Scissors, forced further into her body. Rebecca is horrified by what's she's done. She did love and care for Emma in her own way, after all. Traumatized, Rebecca rushes down the Staircase and holds a bloodied and dying Emma in her arms. Rebecca is terribly guilty. Emma touches Rebecca's face, with tears falling down boths faces. Emma smiles at Rebecca, unable to speak. 

"I'm so sorry, Emma. Please, don't die. I can't have anyone else, leave me. I'm sorry," Rebecca cries. 

Emma tragically dies in Rebecca's arm from her fatal injuries. Upstairs, witnessing the whole thing from the broken bannister, is Bethany. Harry hobbles out and is shocked by what he's seeing. Rebecca sobs holding Emma close to her. 

THE CAMERA PANS UPWARDS FROM EMMA TO BETHANY. CLOSE UP OF BETHANY LOOKING INTO THE CAMERA WITH A SMUG LOOK.

Introducing Shawne Ashmore as Joshua Norton
and Linda Blair as Lisa Johannson (Scarlett Wilson -Birth Name / Rebecca Craig). 


Saturday
8th April 
1989

Salt Lake, Utah. 


 Nine year old Rebecca Craig(Scarlett Wilson) and foster sister Alicia Smith (Abigail Barton), are watching the 1987 Film , 'Dirty Dancing' in their bedroom, eating Candy and drinking Coke. 

('Yoh, cuz, what's she doing hear? - Johnny Castle.
'She's with me. She's with me.' - Billy Kostecki.
'I carried a Water Melon.' - Baby.
Johnny finds her response rather, bizarre and carries on dancing to Otis Redding's 'Love Man.' Baby feels dumb. 
'I carried a Water Melon?') 

"He's so dreamy isn't he, Patrick Swayze?" Rebecca says. 

"Sure is Sis," Alicia agrees. 

Rebecca is touched by Alicia calling her sis and puts her arm around her and kisses her on the head. 

"I like it when you call me that," Rebecca smiles. 

Downstairs, Rose Craig, Rebecca's adopted mother, is clearing up, when she can hear the two girls singing to 'Hungry Eyes' during Johnny learning baby to dance, montage scene. She smiles to herself, that they are getting along well. Alan Craig her husband can also hear them from in the living room. He too feels glad, that Alicia is happy in Rebecca's company. 

"Sounds to me, they're getting on like a house on fire," Alan senses. 

"I know. Considering her parents passed away several months ago. Rebecca has been a shining light to Alicia," Rose says. 

"I don't know. It's weird. The social workers seem to suggest, that Alicia seemed motionless, when they died."

"Denial I suppose."

"What you mean, trying to suppress the Trauma?"

"It's possible. Just think, you're given away by your birth mother straight from Birth and then lose your adopted parents in a Plane Crash, years later."

"She's probably too afraid to show emotion and is bottling up inside," Alan suggests. 

"Alicia will open up to us in her own way and own time. Let's make this feel like home to her."

A while later 'Dirty Dancing' is nearing the end of the Movie. Both Rebecca and Alicia are glued to the T.V. Screen. 

('Nobody puts Baby in a Corner.' - Johnny Castle). 

'Oh my God, what's he gonna do?" Alicia giggles, getting excited by upcoming conclusion. 

"I hope they complete that Dance lift," Rebecca adds. 

"This is such a romantic movie. I love the songs." 

Rose comes upstairs and peeks through the bedroom door and the dance finale of Dirty Dancing begins. The extended version of 'Ive had the Time Of My Life,' by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes starts during the movie scene. 

('Now, I've had the time of my life. No, I never felt this way before.
Yes, I swear, it's the truth. And I owe it all to you.

'Cause I've had the time of my life. And I owe it all to you.')

Rebecca and Alicia are so overwhelmed, they start to dance around the room and Rose starts to laugh a little, with happy tears, as the girls dance to possibly the happiest song in Music history. 

('I've been waiting for so long. Now I've finally found someone, to stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall. As we felt this magical fantasy
Now with passion in our eyes, there's no way way, we could disguise it secretly 
So we take each others hand, cause we seem to understand the urgency 

Just remember, you're the one thing, I can't get enough of. So I'll tell you something 
This could be love, because....') 

Alan sees his wife peeking on the girls and gets emotional, when it seems Rebecca has finally got the sister she dreamed of having. 

(I've had the time of my life. No, I've never felt this way before
Cause I swear, it's the truth. And I owe it all to you...

Hey, Baby!' 

'With body and soul, I want you more than you'll ever know 
So we just let it go. Don't be afraid to lose control, no
Yes, I know what's on your mind, when you say "Stay with me tonight."

Just remember, you're the one thing
I can't get enough of. So I'll tell you something this could be love...')

Johnny and Baby successfully complete the Dance lift The girls cheer and Rebecca attempts the lift on Alicia. They mimic it to perfection. 

THE SONG CONTINUES INTO A FOLLOWING SCENE

Rebecca and Alicia are seen skipping hand in hand down a suburban street, singing 'I've Had The Time Of  My Life.' 

THE SONG CONCLUDES. 

Rebecca and Alicia comes to a Woodland and spot a large log, like bridge crossing over a river, with a very strong current. Rebecca tugs on Alicia's hand, who doesn't allow herself to go any further. She senses Rebecca, wants to cross the log and gets really nervous, sensing the danger. Rebecca frowns. 

"What's the matter?" Rebecca asks. 

"We're not going to try cross, that log are you?" Alicia panics. 

"C'mon we can try that dance move, Johnny and Baby tried in Dirty Dancing. You know " Hey, Hey Baby. I wanna know, if you'll be my girl."

"Have you seen the drop? It must be at least fifty feet. Besides heights are not my thing."

"You just have to have confidence."

"You seem over confident."

Rebecca puts her hands on Alicia's shoulders firmly. She is desperate for Alicia to play dangerous. The sound of the raging river can be heard below. 

"Do you trust me? I promise, I won't let go," Rebecca assures her foster sister. 

Rebecca stares down at the Waters below, with anxiety kicking. She doesn't want to let her Foster sister down. Alicia, hesitates, but takes in Rebecca's assurance. She nervously nods, even knowing the dangers. The girls take off their shoes and shuffle along the log. They start singing Hey!Baby! by Bruce Channel. Getting confident in her dancing, Alicia she lets go of Rebecca and starts to dance on her own. They start jumping up and down on the log. This is when it starts to get dangerous. The log begins to creek, unbeknown to them. The two nine year olds, are in a World of their own. Suddenly, the Log snaps in half and the two girls slip. Gravity starts to pull them down, with the the one half of the log, balancing on the cliff . Severe pain by splinters and cuts, pulls Rebecca to the edge of the log. Alicia tries to reach out for Rebecca, with one hand, as she attempts to balance herself. 

"Rebecca! Reach for my hand!" Alicia cries. 

"I can't. I'm slipping," Rebecca screams. 

After several attempts, Rebecca's grip on the log is lost and she falls into the raging river below and the severe current takes her away. Alicia watches on in horror, as her soul is ripped out of her, witnessing a possible tragedy before her very eyes. Alicia is unable to see Rebecca anywhere. 

"Rebecca! Nooooo!" Alicia's calls out. 

Alicia barely pulls herself to safety and scours the river from the cliffside. Rebecca is gone. Alicia hyperventilates and now feels a huge sense of guilt, for allowing herself to go along with Rebecca's stunt. Alicia clenches her fists, making her hands bleed as she gets angry. 

"REBECCCCACAAAAA!"

Francis Bay, Long Island. 

WILSON RESIDENCE.


23 year Old Rebecca, awakes from a Nightmare, that has been haunting her for nearly Twenty Four Years. The torture of witnessing, her Foster sisters possible drowning has left a painful mark on her soul. She trembles and sweats, as the psychological scar lingers on. Fifty plus hours earlier, Rebecca had mistaken Emma for a dangerous intruder and killed her. Theoretically, Emma was intruding. However, Emma was part of the Wilson family fold to a point, despite being married to Chris and having an affair with Rebecca at the same time.  Rebecca walks into the upstairs Hallway and looks down into the passage, where Emma died from her fatal injuries, nights earlier. The guilt is too much for Rebecca and she drops to her knees in tears. It was a freak accident. What was Emma doing in the house secretly and hiding in the Attic? What was her intensions? Days earlier, she attempted to murder Benjamin, but inadvertantly kill two innocent bystanders at a Gas Station. 

It is revealed, that Emma is the one, behind the Gas Station Homicide and Harry is absolutely horrified by the revelations. He has  suspicions, as to why she may have gone mad. He doesn't yet, discuss this with Rebecca, as she is mourning, yet another loss, on top of losing Linda Perry and her biological mother, Clara. The other scenario, he has to contend with, is having the return of psychic abilities and what secrets have been revealed to him. 

Bethany heads into town and goes to the harbour, where Benjamin is working and pulls him aside. 

"Let me, deal with Dominic in my own way," Bethany suggests. "I don't think he will be that stupid to blow this whole situation out in the open. We've got more things to worry about, at this time."

"OK, it's your call," Benjamin agrees. "But, I'm not sorry, that Bitch is dead."

"Kind of freakish, yet convenient, by the way Emma's life ended the way it did."

"How long do you intend to stall on King? He's probably got evidence on that Joe Hayes recording."

"Like I said, let me deal with him in my own way."

"How is Rebecca? Surprised she has enough tears to cry anymore," Benjamin cruelly remarks.

"And we're at fault for all three of the deaths, that's caused her pain," Bethany said. 

"And Benita's."

Bethany does not reply to her son's quote and informs him, that Rebecca wants to decent buriel for Emma and lay her next to her adopted father, Otto Cole. She then states, she is going into the Bank to work a morning shift. Benjamin gets really uptight and on edge. He' concerned that Dominic will have nothing to lose and expose, all their secrets, unbeknown to them, Harry knows them in his head. Benjamin catches his reflection in a mirror and he stares aggressively. 

"What are you looking at?" Benjamin snaps. He walks to the mirror and breathes like a Predator, ready to strike. "Just remember, there's blood on your hands as well love."

Arriving, in Town, in a tatty car, across from the Kings Cafe, is Twenty One year old, Joshua Norton. Son of Deceased Mother, Lacy Norton and Illegitimate son of Harry Wilson. Lacy had visited Harry in New York, following the Nuclear threat on New York and Jeff's arrest and told him about Joshua, prior to her death. Phil Norton, Joshua's adopted father, wasn't keen, that Harry got to know Joshua, as he brought Joshua up. It appears that Joshua, has his own mind and decided to find his real father. He looks to his surroundings and seems to find the town of Francis and nice looking Hamlet. He notices a local man, tending to a Truck driver, who is have a medical episode. Joshua hurries over and drops his overbag on the floor to help. 

"Is he alright?" Joshua queries. 

"I think he's exhausted. He said he's been over worked," the local man explains. "I don't think he's in a fit state to continue driving this Rigger."

"You're right," Joshua agrees.

The truck is parked in an inconvenient way and could cause chaos and too close to the Harbour edge, plus blocking way for Fishing Operatives to get in or out. The local steadies the Truck Driver. 

"You couldn't move this truck could you kid?" the local suggests.

Joshua feels like he's been put on the spot and would feel awful, if he didn't help, a man unwell.  He hesitates for a moment. 

"I'm not sure. It's different from driver a car, I'm sure," Joshua figures. "I'll need help guiding it to safety."

The local man gets a female lady to help the truck to sit in a safe place and to seek medical attention. Joshua hops into the Truck and tries to figure out of the controls. He nervously, but successfully starts the engines and the local man, acts as a Banksman/Reversing assistant to guide him through. Joshua cranks the gears and the truck starts to jerk slowly forward. He spins the steering hard and the Large Vehicle slowly turns, as the young Wilson takes caution. The back of the truck, barely misses Benjamin's red truck. Joshua takes a deep breath. The truck continues to jerk. Then, Joshua loses concentration. He sees Deloris exiting the Cafe, getting a breath of fresh air and he can't his eyes off her. He is so engrossed in staring at Deloris, he doesn't realize the truck is rolling backwards and the Local man is trying to get his attention. Benjamin is seen walking out of the Fishery and sees the Truck rolling towards her red truck. The Local man is screaming at Joshua. 

"Hey Kid! Stop!"

Joshua continues to stare at Deloris, unaware of the danger behind. The Truck slams into Benjamins Red Truck and he flies of the Harbour Parking Lot and into the waters below. Benjamin is horrified by watching his Works Truck being driven into the drink. 

"WHAT THE FUUUUCCCCKKKK!" Benjamin curses. 

His screaming can be heard, echoing around the town and Bethany hears her son's loud cries from inside the bank. Joshua steps on the breaks and pulls up the handbrake. He has a bad feeling. Deloris, who is also a witness, is caught of guard by what has just occurred, right on her doorstep. Dominic also rushes out to the commotion. Benjamin rushes to the edge of the Lot and sees his Truck, sinking. Joshua jumps out and sees the damage he's caused. 

"Oops," Joshua gasps. 

Benjamin is shocked by Joshua's response and clenches his fists in anger. Dominic and Bethany hurry over. Dominic looks like he wants to protect Joshua and Bethany to stop Benjamin from doing something he might regret, even more. 

"Is that all you've to say? Oops" Benjamin rages. 

Joshua steps back, as Benjamin looks like he's about to take a punch at him. 

"Sorry buddy," Joshua apologizes. "Is there anything I can do?"

"How about you go down there in the water and give my Truck the kiss of life, it might come back up in one peace, you stupid asshole!"

"I was just trying to help."

"Help! By putting my pride and joy in the fucking drink?!"

Deloris tries to calm the situation. " Benjamin take it easy, I sure the insurance will pay out."

"That's not the point Deloris. How's he got a trucks licence?"

Joshua acts all awkward and it soon dawns on everyone, he's not a professional Truck driver. Benjamin is not impressed. 

"Please tell me, you have a licence for that thing?" Benjamin worries. 

"The guy over there, was having a medical issue. I offered to help," Joshua answers. 

"Yeah, well, I'm pleased to say, you're next to have a medical issue."

Benjamin is about to attack Joshua, when Dominic stands in his way and tells him to calm down and to arrange to have it pulled out. Benjamin gives Joshua an evil stare. 

"That's my livelihood down there. And you're gonna pay for it. One way or the other. So, you stay out of my way," Benjamin warns. 

Deloris offers Joshua a coffee and he thanks Dominic for helping him out, despite the embarrassment. Bethany goes to calm Benjamin and Dominic chuckles to himself, when he sees Benjamin's truck sinking. 

KINGS CAFE 

Deloris fixes Joshua a coffee on the house and he informs her, he's looking for his Biological father and he quickly tells her, it's Harry. Deloris is surprised by this and she lets her father know. Dominic shakes Joshua's hand. Then Dominic has a strange psychic vision. 

From Dominic's P.O.V. on boat assisting a female, who's identity is not seen. Only High Heel shoes - like Air Hostess Shoes. 
Dominic and Charlotte in an altercation regarding the truth surrounding, their son's death as well, as Jeff Wilsons. 
The discovery of Charlottes remains in a Woodland. 
Plus, the Tape recording Dominic conceals. 

Joshua jumps a little and Dominic and Deloris wonder what's bothering him. Joshua puts it down to having the incident recently on his mind. In steps Benjamin, who is somewhat bewildered, that Joshua is made to feel at home. He walks up the counter, as Joshua starts to bare the grudge of the local Fisherman. Deloris starts to feel awkward. 

"My phone is playing up and my cell phone - battery is dead," Benjamin claims. "I was wondering if I could call a Tow Truck from here?"

"Sure," Deloris accepts. 

"A Tow Truck? Ever thought about using your hands?" Dominic sarcastically acknowledges. 

Joshua laughs nervously spitting out his coffee. Benjamin feels insulted, considering it was Joshua, who caused the accident. This makes him even more angry. 

"What are you laughing at you prick?" Benjamin grunts. 

"Nothing. Just chill out man," Joshua groans. 

"Oh, I'm sorry. Shall, I put the Duke Box on and start playing 'The Walk Of Life' by Dire Straits?" 

"I'm sure we can work something out."

"Yeah, there is. Step outside."

Benjamin now wants to use Violence to help his situation. Deloris is worried for the newcomer and tries to calm Benjamin. 

"Benjamin C'mon," Deloris pleads. 

"Stay out of this Deloris," Benjamin demands. 

"Benjamin, why don't you go make that call," Dominic encourages. 

"Yeah, when I'm finished with this hot shot," Benjamin growls. 

Joshua realizes he's been put in a corner and he looks around and sees all the customers staring. Joshua gets off his stool and sees that Benjamin is bigger than him, in height and body tone. He walks towards the door and opens it, as Benjamin follows on behind, being intimidating. All Joshua wanted to do was find his father and within twenty minutes of being in town, is getting into a possible fist fight. Joshua grasps at the door. 

"Uh.... after you," Joshua offers. 

"Oh, thanks," Benjamin nods. 

When Benjamin steps out into the street, Joshua shuts the door and bolts it. It appears he doesn't want to take on the angry Fisherman. He rushes to the counter in desperation to escape. Deloris is not surprised, that Joshua acted the way he did. Dominic rolls his eyes, smirking, however he feels terribly sorry for the new Wilson boy. 

"Have you got a back door here somewhere?" Joshua panics. 

"Yeah, it's just round, here," Dominic points. 

Joshua rushes round the counter and runs to the back door. He opens it and Benjamin is blocking his escape. 

"Boo!" Benjamin spooks. 

"Oh - shit!" Joshua cries. 

Benjamin grabs Joshua by the scruff. Joshua then has more psychic flashes. 

Jeff Wilson dying in a swimming (Seventh Season Finale - Big Brother's Last Stand). 

Benjamin having an Orgy with Christopher, Emma and Rebecca. Deloris catching them, leaving her heartbroken. (Fives A Crowd - Final Season). 

Brief flashes, of the murders of Linda Perry, Steven Whittaker, Clara Barton and Charlotte King. And Christopher being approached  from the P.O.V. of an assailant in the foggy Lighthouse. Gloria Lang striking a match, prior to her death. (Final Season)

Joshua is yanked outside by his shirt and he yells that he has money. Inside the Cafe, Deloris and Dominic wait on the outcome of the physical altercation. Customers also wait anxiously to see who's won the fight. Suddenly, in steps both Benjamin and Joshua. Joshua looks like he's not been assaulted and Benjamin quickly starts counting cash. Joshua has paid him off and avoided a beating. Joshua hasn't a penny in his wallet left and feels humiliated. Deloris feels sad for him.

"Some reunion this is gonna be," Joshua sighs.

Unknown Safehouse

Eric Lane (Hank Willis), is still Live Streaming, Security Footage from the Metropolitan Hospital Center. He notices that more Doctors and Nurse, have been checking in on Abraham, more often than usual. He starts to wonder, if there a change in Abraham's condition or if he's close to coming out of his Coma. He drinks a can of Budweiser. Marge then enters the room and pulls up a chair beside, the former Gangster. 

"Anything new?" Marge queries. 

"Possibly, Medics are in and out of Ab's room, more than usual," Eric notes. 

"Since, we've both distracted by protecting our guests and worrying about Elaina and Abraham. I discovered something new today, on the T.V."

Eric spins around, interested. 

"That Gas Station Homocide, near Francis Bay. It was only caused by Emma."

"Oh shit!"

"Don't worry, she's dead"

"Did they say how?"

"Who knows. But at least she's the least of our worries."

"Right. But, Elaina and Andy still need to lay low. Even, if my theory is right about Abraham."

Marge places her right hand on Eric's shoulder, who is finding it hard to relax. 

"How's our friends?" Eric asks. 

"Jack's psychic abilities, still haven't come back yet," Marge says. "That plunge into the depths of a Waterfall, seemed to have made them dissappear for much longer, than I anticipated."

"And, what about -?"

"Too afraid to leave his side. Mind you, she's not talking much. It's like she has a memory block also."

"Not surprising, considering she miraculously survived a 110 Storey Building falling down on her."


Francis Bay. Long Island. 

Joshua Norton mid afternoon, arrives at the Wilson Household. He is about to meet his Biological Father, Harry.  A couple of hours earlier, he freakishly sent Benjamin's truck into the Harbour and almost had a physical altercation, as a result. However, to save himself from a beating, handed over what cash he had left. Joshua gets out and prepares for one of the most important moments of his life. It will be emotional and considering, he too has the Abilities, he, his father and half brother have, they should hopefully bond well. Joshua walks slowly up to the house and knocks on the door. Rebecca opens the door, looking rather bleek and discoloured. 

"Hi, can I help you?" Rebecca sighs, feeling tired. 

"Yeah, Um, my names Joshua. I've come to see Harry Wilson."

"Joshua?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, are you Rebecca?" 

Rebecca finds it odd, that Joshua may know her, being nervous. 

"You know who I am?"

"I might as well, get it off my chest. I'm Harry's son. Lacy Norton was my mother."

It takes a few seconds to take it all in, then smiles a little, feeling comforted that something good and someone promising has turned up for a change, considering the fatal death of Emma, a few nights earlier. 

"Oh, of course," Rebecca acknowledges. 

"I hope, it's not inconvenient for me to come in," Joshua enquires. 

"Not all. Come in."

Rebecca invites Joshua in. Joshua automatically believes Rebecca to be his half sister and she takes him into the kitchen and he pulls up a chair, placing his over bag, by his feet. Rebecca walks over to the perculator and starts making coffee. 

"I'll go fetch, Harry - I mean Daddy. And you two can finally meet," Rebecca cheerfully replies. Rebecca starts to ascend the stairs to get Harry and she smirks to herself. "If he has Psychic abilities too, you're doubley fucked Beth."

Joshua patiently waits downstairs in the Kitchen and tries to relax himself. He then stands up and heads into the Hallway and sees a photograph of Harry and Bethany together. He recognizes her from the incident at the Harbour. Joshua worries, he will be embarrassed even further. He then has a peak into the Living room, when suddenly the front door opens and in steps Bethany from her half day at work and of course, calming Benjamin down. Joshua acts all innocent, when Bethany sees him. She recognizes him straight away and finds this a coincidence. 

"Uh, Hello. Why are you here?" Bethany questions. 

"Yeah - About that incident in Town....I messed up," Joshua admits. 

"Yes, I noticed. You still haven't answered my question."

"Sorry. I'm Joshua. Harry's son."

Joshua holds his hand out for a hand shake. Bethany hesitates, as she approached Lacy Norton in late 2002 at her Hotel Room prior to her death and questioned her intensions on why she told Harry about Joshua, Twenty years later. Lacy died in mysterious circumstances on an Airplane. However, the police put it down to suicide, because she had terminal cancer. Bethany doesn't shake his hand, but partially smiles. 

"I see. To be honest...I can see the resembelence now. Surprised I didn't notice first time, after...you know," Bethany said. 

"Right," Joshua agrees. 

Then, without notice, Benjamin walks in, unexpedley. He looks very exhausted and upset, by the events, surrounding Joshua putting his Truck into the Harbour, with a Twelve Ton Vehicle. When he spots Joshua present in the house, he looks really angry. 

"What the hell are you doing here?" Benjamin snaps. 

"Look, I paid you off. What more do you want?" Joshua argues. 

"What's he doing here?" Benjamin raises his voice. 

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Bethany grunts. 

Suddenly, Harry's voice is heard behind Joshua. 

"Joshua? Son?" Harry calls. 

Rebecca is assisting Harry downstairs, who has a walking cane. Harry is overwhelmed that his son, that he's never met, has finally turned up on his doorstep. Joshua stands at the bottom of the staircase, pleased that his father appears to be welcoming. Harry sees the resembelance. Joshua looks similar to how Harry looked in his High School years. 

"Hi, Harry. Um, Dad," Joshua greets. 

"I don't think I've earned that yet. But, you're finally here."

Father and son embrace. 

Joshua then has psychic flashes from Harry's life experiences.

Broadway. Theatre. Manhattan. NY. 


Twenty Three Year Old, Lisa Johannson (Birth name - Scarlett Wilson / Adopted name, Rebecca Craig), is singing practice for an upcoming Opera Show and her manager, Mr Carson is blown away by her performance and it brings tears to his eyes. When she finishes, she is given a great applause and her Caron is overwhelmed by the results.  He assures Lisa, she will be a star for the future. Lisa clasps her hands in excitement and hugs him. 

"Thank Mr Carson. I'm really flattered," Lisa appreciates. 

"Where did you get your talents?" Mr Carson asks. "It's like you've been on stage for years."

"I'm not sure. I learnt to sing, where I grew up on my Farm in Kansas."

"Is that where your family are now?" 

"My father, yes. He and my late Mother, adopted me, as a baby, after they moved from Sweden and inherited the Farm. I had an accident, when I was nine and lost my memory. Everything, prior to that point is a blank." 

"Wow and look at you now."

"I know. I better call home to Kansas. Make sure my Dad gets to see me live, when I perform."

"Exactly."

Lisa heads off to call her, supposed adopted father. In truth, she is the adopted daughter of Rose and Alan Craig. The fall into the river in the Spring of 1989, has wiped her memory completely. The only memories she has, is from the age of nine, growing up with the Johannson's from Sweden, who inherited a Kansas Farm. If these memories are the one's she has, what are the chances of knowing her real adopted parents (Rose already deceased) and most important, her Biological family and the girl, who claims to be her, from Birth? 

WILSON RESIDENCE
FRANCIS BAY. LONG ISLAND.


Joshua and Harry - father and son - are bonding. Joshua too, has the genetic psychic abilities that Harry has. He is yet, to discover Rebecca, who he believes is his half sister - isn't. They sit at the dining table, getting to know each other and this somewhat makes it uncomfortable for Bethany, who feigns being happy for her husband. Rebecca glances quite smugly at Bethany, relishing the fact, two people with psychic abilities could be the start of her undoing.  Joshua talks about his trips around Europe and the tragic passing of his mother, which Bethany takes note of, in her guilty mind at least. 

"It's sad your adventure was cut short, before your mother passed," Harry comforts. "Your Mother not long before she died, came to see me not long after Nine Eleven to let me know about you."

"About my Dad, well, Phil," Joshua replies. "He told me he warned you to stay away. He had no right to do that."

"Well, that just proves what a good father he's been. He's loved you all these years as his own. If get a chance to, tell him I'm not taking his place. However, I really do want to get to know you."

"That goes for two of us," Rebecca adds. 

Joshua smiles and takes Rebecca's hand, who is warmed to being accepted. Joshua then has flashbacks of Rebecca's life.
                                                               
                                                                                          Alicia Smith's abuse by her adopted Father and being unnerved by his death in a plane crash with                                                                                               her adopted mother.

Joshua feels a little shaken and somewhat sorry for Rebecca and realizes from seeing the visions, from Harry's perspective, she is not all bad and has lived a roller coaster life and some of it, is painful and that being somebody else, has made her wanted and loved. Joshua looks to Bethany and smiles. Bethany smiles back, reluctantly and then leaves the room briefly. Joshua finds Bethany rather suspicious and he figures, that Bethany doesn't want him there. Harry sees that Joshua, senses something not right, within the Wilson household. 

"What's on your mind?" Harry queries. 

"Oh, nothing. Just a long day," Joshua claims. "Can I use the bathroom?"

"Sure, it's just upstairs, first door diagonal to your right," Rebecca points. 

"Thanks, be right back."

Joshua nervously makes himself scarce for a few minutes and heads upstairs. Rebecca stands up and walks to the edge of the Living Room and sees Bethany gulping down a glass of red wine, almost as if Joshua being in the house, is an annoyance to her. Rebecca returns to sit down by Harry. 

"He's inherited my Psychic Genes," Harry suspects. 

"I get that feeling too, when he touched me," Rebecca whispers. 

"I hope he doesn't feel we're a danger to him."

"If he has any sense, he'll realize we're not the bad guy's here."

"Give it a few days. Maybe 'til after Emma's funeral next week. I'll make him aware of what I know."

"Then what?"

"I'll start the beginning of the end of my beloved wife, her psycho son and Dom King. Then we start over.  Just the three of us. In fact, I may ask Beth to take me into town tomorrow. There's something i want to check out at the King's Domain."

Rebecca nods, but feeling anxious.

2003

Francis Bay. Long Island. 


It's 8:00 am. Rebecca had made several attempts to call Elaina, to inform her of Emma's death. However, since that tragic night, it has appeared, that she has been unheard from. Rebecca has also phoned the Metropolitan Hospital in Manhattan to make enquiries, but nobody has seen Elaina paying visits to Abraham's bedside. This concerns Rebecca, despite the abrupt appearance of Harry's illegitimate son, Joshua. Bethany surprises Rebecca, who can't stand to be in the same room, as the woman, who had her Birth Mother, brutally murdered over two months earlier. 

"What are you doing up so early?" Bethany asks. 

"Called Elaina's apartment again and the Hospital," Rebecca anxiously replies. "It's like she's vanished off the face of the Earth. The Doctors are concerned too."

"That does sound rather bizarre. Do you think something happened to her?"

"Like what? A sudden brutal demise at the hands of somebody, who doesn't want their secrets revealed?"

Bethany finds Rebecca's suggestion a bit suspicious. Almost as if Rebecca is giving a hint. 

"What gave you that idea love?" Bethany asks. 

Rebecca immediately realizes, that her response could to be too obvious, that she is aware of what Bethany is - a psychopath. 

"Oh, nothing," Rebecca claims. "Just me being stupid as usual. I need to get a grip don't I?"

Bethany appears to soften and seems quite relieved. 

"Just take your mind off the trauma, until Saturday at least. You obviously acted upon instinct, the other night. I feel bad about Emma. I liked her. I know you loved her. She understood and the police are satisfied it was a tragic misunderstanding and it's highly unlikely, you'll face charges. But, Emma has given them a good reason for painting her as a bad person. She after all..."

Rebecca interrupts Bethany, after being given the facts of Emma's mad psychotic episode, which saw her killed two people at Gas Station, when she really attempted to murder Benjamin Bates, who claims to have been unaware of it. The last thing, Rebecca wants is to be reminded of the guilt, that led Emma to her deadly vengeful persona. 

"Yes, I know. The Police gave me those Gory details already. The one thing I can't believe....is that Prick next door, claiming he knew nothing of Emma in pursuit of him - is a load crap."

"Listen, why don't you go back and rest up for a while. You have a - you know - a brother, that's turned up out of the blue. Might be a brighter spark, that we need."

Rebecca nods and reluctantly smiles, as Bethany kisses her on the cheek. Bethany ascends the staircase and Rebecca's gives her one of the most hateful stares. Rebecca rubs her face to rid the gruelling peck, Bethany gave her. 

Manhattan.
Lisa Johannson's Apartment 

Lisa is sat in tears. It's almost as if, she's just suffered a traumatic tragedy. She has a picture of a man, whom she believes is her adopted Swedish Father, who actually isn't. She starts to breathe fast and clutches rubs her head and takes Aspirin, as it appears she has a headache. Suddenly, her phone rings and she screams and drops her Aspirin. She nervously gets up and hesitates momentarily, before picking up her phone hanging on the wall. She almost drops the phone, as she trembles.

"Hello," Lisa cries. 

It's Mr Carson, her Broadway manager who seems really excited about her future. 

"Hi, Lisa. It's me Carson."

Lisa still in tatters, tries her utmost to get her words out, but is distracted by something rather terrible, that's brought on these strong emotions.

"Oh, uh, uh - Hi Mr Carson. Uh, Uh, can I - Can I.... What do you want?"

"Are you OK?" Carson shows his concern. 

"Um, um..yeah."

"Listen, I'm sorry to call you on a Sunday of all days. This sounds silly - well, it is going to sound silly. Would you consider a stage name?"

"A stage name?" 

"Yeah, I've got a great one, you may like. I mean technically you'll still be Lisa Johannson, but I conjured this from the top of my head. Julia Sterling."

"Well, since, you've put it like that, how about you call me,"The Girl With Name." 

"Huh?"

"To tell you the truth Mrs Carson, I called home to Kansas last night and discovered my father - or should I say the man who I thought was my adopted father, isn't. According to Law Enforcement, I'm not Lisa Johannson and the FBI are to pay me a visit this afternoon to give me the facts on the years I missed before from the age of nine.  So, yes, if you want, call me anything. Julia Sterling, Jane Fonda, Betty Davis, Rita Fucking Hayworth. Anything. Because, it looks like, my whole life has just become another big fucking mystery."

Lisa slams the phone down in hysterics and sobs her heart out, at the discovery her alleged adopted father, isn't. Her memory prior to the age of ten, is a blank and at some point after, she, as Rebecca Craig, fell into a River, was found by somebody and was somehow brought to Kansas and into a new family fold. Lisa, is completely oblivious, to her Biological family (Harry & Tina), also has no incline she was officially adopted by the Craig's, (Rose & Alan), who flew to the U.K. to collect her twenty three years earlier. Lisa, anxiously awaits the arrival of Federal Agents.

Lisa Johannson Apartment.
Manhattan. 


Federal Agents Waller and Tanner, arrive at Lisa's apartment. She is still reeling from the revelation, that she was never adopted by the Johannsons, but trafficked.  

"Miss Johannson. It is to my understanding, you lost your memory around the age of Nine, due to an accident you had," Waller begins. 

"That's right," Lisa nervously replies.

"Can you tell us, what kind of accident?"  

"I fell and hit my head and nearly drowned in a lake, while on vacation. Or so I was told."

"Where on Vacation?" Tanner asks. 

"Utah. We went fishing at a lake and I fell in. A passer by jumped in and pulled me out. I was unconscious for nearly an hour. I don't recall anything prior to that moment. Look what makes you think I was trafficked?" 

"Because, the culprit behind the operation we're investigating, has been involved in Human Trafficking and kidnap for twenty years. We discovered the adoption farces behind the operation, included you being brought to the Johannson's. The man and woman, you think are your adopted parents, more than likely never legally adopted you. They bought you, after they came to America.

"Your lost memory, was a way to manipulate you, into thinking everything the Johannson's told you were true. Somehow, they even forged a bank account for you," Waller figures. 

"So, who am?" Lisa sobs. 

"That's what we're here to find out." Tanner said. 

"DNA?" Lisa figures.

"As soon as possible," Waller encourages. 

Lisa puffs her cheeks, after learning a devastating truth. She has been possibly trafficked since the age of nine. any memory she has before that, is complete blank. A blood test is the only way to find out, her true origin. Whatever her past reveals, it will determine what she does for the future ahead. 

KING'S CAFE
FRANCIS BAY. LONG ISLAND


Harry, Bethany and Joshua arrive at the Kings Residence, as Harry wants to offer moral support - to Deloris anyway. He wants to understands Dominic's intensions for conspiring to murder his brother, Jeff in brutal circumstances. Dominic is somewhat surprised by Harry arriving with his son and Bethany of all people. Dominic feels rather uncomfortable, being in the same woman, who not only killed his son, but has also had a hold over him for years. He also suspects she is most likely behind, the murder of his beloved wife, Charlotte. Deloris is warmed that the Wilsons have come to offer their condolences. Since the cafe is closed, they head upstairs into the apartment. Joshua is still very much attracted to Deloris, who had met him the day previous. It was him being attracted to Deloris, that caused him to push Benjamin's truck into the water. Harry holds his hand out for a handshake and Dominic accepts the gesture. Harry has psychic flashes of Dominic's life secrets. 

Dominic falling over a curb drunk in Manhattan and meeting Charlotte in 1979. 
Dominic and Charlotte  falling in love / getting married / having two children 
Dominic's business failings /Grieving for his son James /Lusting for Bethany in a Mental Institute 

Dominic demanding he be left alone / Blackmailed into assisting the murder of Jeff. 
Charlotte informing Dominic of Joe Hayes tapes / Dominic and Bethany swearing revenge on one another / Charlotte's body discovered in Woodland. / The Joe Hayes tape
s being placed inside a cabinet. 

Harry twitches a little, as he stumbles with his cane. Dominic steadies him. Dominic again offers a handshake to Joshua, who nervously acknowleges the gesture. Reluctantly hand out a handshake, he too has a psychic vision. 

Dominic devastated over Charlotte's death. /Making a recording for Harry/ Removing the recorder and hiding it, in a secret room, in the Basement of the Cafe. 

Joshua takes not of this and Deloris offers coffee, to which everyone accepts and Bethany offers a hand. 

"I should have visited sooner, but you know," Harry starts. "I'm sorry about Charlotte. I can imagine what you're going through. What I mean is I can relate."

"Thing is Harry. I don't think, I'll ever get over this. It's destroyed me. I feel so guilty."

Harry frowns a little, wondering what Dominic is implying. 

"Guilty?"

"Since that night Eight Years ago. She blamed herself for James. She was vulnerable and I allowed her to be murdered by some asshole, who knew she was." 

"Like who?"

Dominic hesitates, feeling a little distressed, almost like he wants confess his inner demons to Harry, there and then. It's not like he set out to hurt his family and friends. However, his actions have had a consequence for those involved and who they know. Dominic sits down a chair opposite Harry.  Since they were kids, it felt at times Harry had his back, when it came down to school bullies. Now, years later, it almost feels like a huge stab in the back by Dominic, on Harry's part. Joshua takes this all in. 

"Uh, can I use your bathroom for a second please?" Joshua asks. 

"Sure. But, use the customer one downstairs, the flush on the one in the Apartments busted. I was mean't to fix it," Dominic points out. 

"OK, thanks."

Joshua heads out of the apartment and downstairs to supposedly the customer toilets. Dominic then remembers, Harry's accident and Emma's bizarre death in the Wilson household, nights earlier. 

"How's Rebecca?" Dominic queries. 

"She's baring up, thanks," Harry answers. "It's not every day to find the intruder you kill, was your Ex girlfriend. She would have come over. Sleepless nights since what happened."

"I just can't get my head around, Emma committing murder and blowing up a Gas Station."

"I can't get my head around a lot of things either. I mean, who do you trust this days?"

"Was there something else?"

"That's what I'm gonna find out."


Joshua is seen descending into the King's Basement, where Charlotte was brutally murdered by Benita, the Francis Bay Killer. The basement is really Eery and partially dark, even with the light bulb turned on. He glances back to see if anyone is aware he's sneaking inside. Joshua passes quantities of cafe merchandize. he walks around a corner and spots a secure double door, which is highly secured by chains and bolted. Upstairs, Deloris realizes she hasn't enough coffee left and informs Bethany, that she could get some from in the basement. Bethany offers to go fetch it for her. Joshua finds some cutters hidden behind wooden boxes and cautiously checks to his surroundings and struggles away to cut the chains. With all his might, he manages to cut away the chains and quietly opens the double doors, which unveils a secret room, with what looks like a huge computer system. Joshua is astounded by the discovery, although the computers are switched off and have been for what looks like a while, considering the dusty appearance. Joshua sees a small cabinet near the computers. He looks inside and finds the Joe Hayes recording and places them in his pocket. Unbeknown to him, standing behind him, is Bethany holding a jar of Coffee, who has witnessed his break in and discovery. She quietly slips away from the scene and Joshua secures the secret room. Will Bethany take deadly action against Harry's son?

Abraham & Elaina's Apartment
Manhattan

 

Rebecca arrives and knocks on the Carlisle's Apartment door. She also rings the doorbell. She waits a few moments, but there is no reply. This worries Rebecca. 

"Elaina? Are you there? It's Rebecca." 

Still no answer. Suddenly, a neighbour appears , hearing Rebecca in the hallway. Rebecca acknowledges the neighbour. 

"Oh, hello," Rebecca says. "You don't happen to know where Elaina Carlisle is?"

"You know, nobody has seen her in a week. We even checked the Hospital's, even the Hospital where Abraham is and the New York Times, where she works. Her son Andy, wasn't in school last week either. I hope it has nothing to do with what happened to her husband and the missing reporter. You know the one, who's father was a terrorist cop?" the neighbour explains. "I hope she's alright."

"Yeah, so do I," Rebecca agrees. "Best not give up too much hope, huh. Thank you."

Rebecca hurries out and heads to the Metropolitan Hospital Center, where Abraham remains in his Coma. 


Wilson's Residence
Francis Bay. Long Island.


Harry, Bethany and Joshua return home and they notice Rebecca's car is not parked up outside. This concerns Harry a little and Bethany suggests Rebecca has gone off somewhere to get out of the house. When they head inside, Harry goes upstairs into the bedroom and makes a call to Rebecca on his Cell Phone. Rebecca answers. She informs him, she is making enquiries on Elaina's whereabouts. Harry advises her to return home, in case her being missing could be something to do with Abraham being in the hospital or Chris being missing or something else. Rebecca assures him, she'll be careful and that she'll be home by night fall. Harry reluctantly agrees and hangs up. Then there's a tap on his shoulder. He has psychic flashes. 

Bethany meeting Eric while he's with Carla. / Eric Lance is really Hank Willis who had a Face/Off procedure.
Eric and Bethany meeting in secret and making threats to each other. 
Bethany and Benjamin suspecting Eric and Elaina behind the Surveillance on the Wilson Household ('From Our Eyes Only,' Final Season). 
The secret Disk that Jeff sent to Abraham, which was stolen by Bethany or Benjamin. Now, it's hidden in the Wilson Basement. /Also the Cosmo's Necklace given to Benjamin to hide in his Cabin House next door.

Harry jumps when Bethany surprises him. 

"Who you talking to?" Bethany asks. 

"That was Rebecca. She's just getting fresh air. She wants to clear her head, after what happened with Emma," Harry lies. 

Bethany hesitates for a moment. Almost as if she suspects Harry being secretive., considering she caught Joshua in the King's Basement, which unveiled Dominic's secret Multiple Computer System and that he took the tapes on Joe Hayes interrogation on Bethany and Dominic. Joshua was unaware Bethany saw him. 

"I see. I hope she's not too long. She mustn't forget, she's got a new brother to get to know."

"Like you said, she's gone to get a change of scenery."

"I'll go make us some dinner. Go wash up."

Bethany slowly walks into the upstairs Hallway and closes the door. She is feel, Joshua is onto her and Dominic and possibly Benjamin. Since she saw Joshua possibly grabbing the tapes, she intends to get them into her possession at any cost, before Harry learns of her dark past. Little does she know of the return, of the psychic ability he once briefly had twenty four years earlier. When she gets into the downstairs hallway, she makes sure Joshua doesn't see her and checks his jacket. The tapes are not in his jacket. This frustrates Bethany and she goes into the dining room and gives Joshua a cold stare, to which he doesn't notice and she informs him, dinner will be ready in half hour. 


Metropolitan Hospital Center
Manhattan


Rebecca parks in the Parking Lot and heads to the Elevator. Ascending upwards, she is stood next to who looks like an elderly lady with a Zymaframe and a scarf over her head. The woman hunches over. Suddenly, the lady speaks in a silent tone. 

"Rebecca," the mystery woman whispers. 

Rebecca finds this nerve racking and it sends a shiver down her spine, but the woman remains in a hunched position. 

"Don't be alarmed. It's me - Elaina. Don't keep looking at me. Big Brother's watching. I don't my protector thinking I'm breaking my safety precautions."

"Thank God, you're alright," Rebecca mumbles. "Who is your protector?"

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you."

"Have you heard -?"

"Yes, I heard about Emma. I'm sorry, I tried to make her see sense. The poor girl was on a downward spiral. But, the reason I've had to go underground, is because of Emma to start with and....your father. There is a lot of secrets..."

"Yeah, I know. Daddy and I sussed Bethanyby some sort of miracle. I have to admit, I've known about Bethany's connection to the Cosmos since early last year. I must confess, I'm no angel either."

"I gathered, by the way Emma condemned you in her unfit state. But, if you truly love Harry, don't hang around here any longer. Get home back to Francis Bay. I don't want you blowing my cover. In case Bethany's sister, is onto me, as I'm the last person to expose her connection to Eric Lance and her secret Organization who exploits Meta Humans for her financial gain." 

"It's him who's protecting you isn't it?" Rebecca figures. 

"No comment. Now, get out of here," Elaina warns.

Episode 142: Double Progeny. Part 8. 


Metropolitan Hospital Center.
Manhattan. 

 

As Elaina enters the Ward, where Abraham remains in a Coma, Rebecca descends back down in the Elevator. Elaina pretends to be an elderly lady with a Zymaframe, so she can still keep an eye on her husband, who is making an improvement in vital signs and could possibly regain consciousness soon. Elaina slowly manoeuvres towards her vulnerable husbands room and goes by his side and starts talking to him and assures that she and Andy are safe and are staying at a Motel, near Newark. At the secret safe house, where Eric Lance is, he notices something suspicious via the Hospital Security Camera's. The old woman, that's entered Abraham's room, is being watched by an unrecognizable male in a suit. He glances up at the Security Camera and then wanders slowly out of view, holding a cell phone to his ear. Eric finds this rather concerning and suspects the Old Woman may not be an old woman and is actually Elaina and is putting her and Andy's safety at risk. 

Rebecca drives out of the Hospital parking lot and is about to drive home, back to Francis Bay. When she stops at a set of traffic signals, she glances in her rear view mirror and hallucinates of seeing Linda Perry, Clara Barton and Emma's corpses in the back seat. She jumps, as her heart starts to beat louder and faster. Rebecca calms herself by catching her breath. She closes her eyes and opens them again and the hallucinations have stopped. Rebecca's guilt and grief of losing the ones she loves most, is starting to intensify. Rebecca pulls off and starts driving off course, distracted by the sudden and unexpected Halluncinations. She drives near Central Park and sees there is a Fairground on the main Greenery. She pulls over and parks up and gets out. It appears she doesn't want to return home yet, considering she hates being under the same roof as Bethany. Rebecca enters Central Park and starts to walk through a busy Fun Fair. 

On a Park Bench in Central Park, is Lisa Johannson (Scarlett Wilson). She sits alone, as crowds pass by. The Twenty Three year, is unfazed by the loud music and fairy lights, which can be heard all around. Lisa dreads the DNA test, she will take, which could verify her as a missing person of fourteen years and another identity. Little does she realize, the person, who took her Birth identity is close by. Rebecca is within the vicinity of the girl, whom she classed as a sister. Rebecca is really emotional, seeing so many people, with their children happy. Going on rides, laughing, holding Balloons and playing games. A Clown jumps out on Rebecca, with a loud laugh and she jumps out of skin. She doesn't seem impressed. Hiding her tears, she takes out sunglasses from her coat pocket and puts them on. She walks at a fast pace and spots the Bench where Lisa is. Little does Rebecca know, it's Rebecca Craig, who she thought drowned at aged nine, in a river. Lisa still zoned out, is brought out of her trance, by Rebecca who abruptly sits next to her. 

"Mind if I sit down?" Rebecca asks, tearfully in her sunglasses. 

"No, not at all," Lisa accepts. 

There is no further conversation, as Lisa starts to feel awkward. She thinks nothing of Rebecca's presence at first, but has a few glances. Lisa then, looks to Rebecca abit longer and Rebecca notices this. Lisa smiles slightly. Rebecca nervously smiles back, but then faces towards the crowds. Lisa, suddenly starts to feel like there is something familiar about Rebecca. A strong connection, but cannot seem to put her finger on it. Without warning, Rebecca gets to her feet and walks off. Lisa thinks for a moment, as she feel like something isn't right. It's a gut feeling. Lisa gets to her feet and pursues Rebecca. She manages to keep up with Rebecca at first, even with the Fun Fair crowds. The crowds get busier and when it seems she's lost Rebecca, she retreats and spots Rebecca looking up at a Ferris Wheel. Lisa notices Rebecca crying. Even wearing Sun Glasses, she can't hide her pain. Rebecca then turns to where Lisa is and Lisa quickly turns away, fearing Rebecca spotted her. When Lisa turns back towards the direction of the Ferris Wheel, Rebecca has absconded. Lisa hurries through the packed Fun Fair trying to catch a glimpse of Rebecca. It's almost as if, it's her mission to find her and that maybe, she's the answer to everything connected to her missing memories. It's possible that seeing Rebecca briefly, has hit the nerve, she revelation, she dreaded. Lisa spots Rebecca walking at a quick pace near the Carousel, as it appears Rebecca suspects Lisa is following her. Lisa picks up the pace, but keeps trying to avoid rowdy crowds. Rebecca keeps looking back and gets further and further away from her pursuer, who becomes desperate to get to her. Suddenly, Rebecca is out of Lisa's view and Lisa's stops and looks three hundred degrees in all directions. Rebecca has disappeared from view. Lisa seems to recognize Rebecca, even if they hadn't seen each other since they were nine years old. 

Francis Bay, Long Island.
Wilson Residence. 

Bethany meets with Benjamin in his cabin house and tells him, she thinks Joshua is onto them, when she not only discovered Dominic's secret computer system (Possibly Cosmos related), she also tells him, she caught Joshua sneaking something into his pocket and that he's concealing possibly incriminating evidence. 

"We have to get to rid of this asshole," Benjamin frets. "If we don't we're fucked."

"My worst fears, might be closer than I thought," Bethany worries.

"What do you mean mother?"

"Harry is acting weird. Quite edgy towards me lately."

"Even if you love him and he suspects us, you can't risk ruining everything. We've sacrificed enough."

"I know that. How he knows or if he possibly knows, could be connected to his Bastard son."

"What about Rebecca? What if she's in on it too?"

"This breaks my heart. But, if push comes to shove. I will have to sacrifice my love for Harry. No matter how much it destroy's me. But, Joe Hayes manipulation of Harry, which I discovered on that tape did prove one thing though. His love for Tina, will always be stronger, than his love for me - That's if he loves me."

"So, Mom, what do we do?"

"We wait. Sooner or later, the shit will hit the fan. I hope I'm wrong. But, hunches could become dangerous."

"Maybe in time, we may have to rid, Harry, Rebecca, Joshua and Dominic."

"And what if Deloris discovers her worst horror?" Bethany queries. 

"What last resort has become no option, this last year mother," Benjamin replies. 

Rebecca pulls up in the driveway and Bethany and Benjamin acknowledge her presence. 

In the house, Harry taps Joshua on the shoulder and has flashes of his son concealing the tape recorder. He sists beside his middle offspring and smiles. 

"Good job son. Keep it safe. We'll pick the right moment....in time."

Wilson Household
Francis Bay. Long Island. 

 

It's around 1:00 A.M. There's a Thunderstorm with heavy persistent rain. Police Officers and Ambulances are in attendances. Dominic is seen being placed in Handcuffs, as his daughter Deloris, dressed in a black over coat and hood, watches on. It's hard for her to comprehend, what she's experienced or discovered. Dominic looks back to his daughter one more time, feeling the remorse of the pain he's caused her and for allowing Bethany to have control. The truth is harrowing and it possible may never allow Deloris to forgive her father. A body bag is brought out from the Lighthouse, with a unidentified corpse inside. Forensics exit with a Gun, possibly fired and a murder weapon, that is a Machete. Rebecca is helped out of the house by Scarlett Wilson (Harry and Tina's biological daughter), as the Police await her. Scarlett rubs Rebecca's shoulder with assurrence and embraces the sister she once had. In truth Rebecca had prayed for a long time, that Scarlett (adopted name Rebecca Craig), was still alive. But, as the years went on, it seemed like an impossibility and so, she decided to live her life, feeling loss in her life also. The abuse suffered by her adopted parents, The Smiths, before their deaths and the rejection by the Craig's, following Scarlett's disappearance. The Turners attempts at turning Rebecca's life around was like an uphill task, as she had already suffered turmoil, which eventually saw her commit identity theft. 

"I'll do what I can to help you," Scarlett says. 

"I am so sorry," Rebecca cries. "Please forgive me."

"You have been good to my father - Our Father."

There is moments silence, as the thought of Harry being missing again starts to hit home. 

"Where is he?" Rebecca fears. 

"I don't know. But, we're gonna find out," Scarlett insists. "Now, you'll have to tell the Police, what you know and...who you really are. But, if I hear anything, I'll be sure to let you know," Scarlett replies. 

"You know after all these years, despite everything, I'm relieved theres closure for us. I'll probably end up in jail, but promise me. You find Daddy and look after each other."

"You will be part of us again some day."

"I just hope they find that Bitch sooner, rather than later."

"So do I. Be seeing ya."

Rebecca is unfortunately placed under arrest for Identity Theft and Perversing The Course Of Justice. It appears Bethany is now a wanted Fugitive and it will soon become clear, that the identity of the Cosmo's leader, Carla, will be unveiled to the World. Joshua is seen tending to a grief stricken Deloris, as the rain pours down on them and there are continuous flashes of Lightning. The Police drive Dominic and Rebecca away in seperate Enforcement cars. And the body in the bag is driven away. Joshua brings Deloris to the Porch, where Scarlett watches Rebecca taken away. Fears for Harry intensify. 

"What a mess," Scarlett sighs, with severe stress. 

"Any word on Dad?" Joshua queries. 

"None. They're waiting on the FBI or the CIA. I gather Interpol will get involved, in case Bethany skips the country."

"Well, it's only her and that nutcase son who knows what happened to him."

"With one of them out of action permanently, we're relying on a Fugitive."

"And that evidence I had and the Disk she had hidden. Damn it. How did she know we were onto her?"

"Don't beat yourself up."

"Come to terms with your new experience? Psychic Abilities?"

 It's weird having psychic flashes of him though, from the touch of somebody else. Seeing his life through their eyes. It's actually strange having those abilities."

"I'm surprised you forgave Rebecca for the few moments you had with her."

"She's a lost soul, who needed solace. Unfortunately, having a psycho for a so called step mother under the same roof, kind of puts a damper on things, doesn't it? I'm gonna support her best I can."

"Welcome to the family sis," Joshua comforts his sister.

"Same to you little Brother," Scarlett greets. Scarlett turns to Deloris. "Are you alright?"

Deloris cannot seem to grasp recent events. It's like her whole World has come crashing down. She lost her brother to Arson Eight years earlier, a fire caused by Bethany, to helped Dominic in an insurance scam. Her mother Charlotte, murdered by Benita, the Francis Bay Killer, assisted by Bethany. And to learn, Dominic had a hand in Jeff's murder and his secret life behind the Cosmos, in which he was blackmailed into to remain loyal to, despite wanted to be left alone. Deloris wants Bethany to pay big time. 

"They had better catch her before I do. Because, she has taken everything from me. She killed my Brother, my Mother and now my father's going to Jail. I will fucking kill her with my bare hands, if nescessary. The Law can do what they like with me, then," Deloris threats. 

A Police officer informs the three, that Agents are on their way and will have to take them into separate rooms for questioning, regarding the Crime Scenes and the build up to the events. Again the Wilson Siblings ask on Harry's whereabouts and again, are assured, his missing status is being dealt with accordingly. 

Scarlett, Joshua, Deloris, Rebecca and Dominic are under questioning by Law Enforcers / Agents / Detectives. 
Each and one has their story, on the build up to that fateful night, where Harry is missing and Bethany is a Fugitive and the circumstances. 

Here's  their story.

Carson assures her, he is her friend and will see to it, her future will be as bright as anything. Carson insists she return home, until she feels its ready for to continue. She say's she won't let him down and Carson assures her, she hasn't. 

Lisa returns to her apartment, manages something to eat and takes a shower and goes to bed, where she lays awake in thought for a while. The Golden Hair Woman, whom sat by her wearing sun glasses and then Lisa following her through the Fun Fair. That moment, seemed like an answer to her distress and recent hearbreak. There appeared to be deep sorrow in the mystery lady also. Lisa struggles to get shut eye for the moment and heads to her bedroom window, overlooking the well lit New York Skyline and listening to the Hustle and Bustle. The city may sound like it never sleeps, but Lisa feels alone - very alone and immensely shattered to her heart. The man she thought was her adopted father, wasn't. He was her abductor, as well as the deceased woman, who was portrayed as her adopted mother. As Lisa looks up into the dark night, a shooting star, flies across the horizon. Is that the hope, Lisa is looking for? For the moment, just some answers. She closes the curtains and returns to bed.

2003


Late afternoon, Lisa is sat watching the comedy, 'Friends,' while a thunderstorm seems to be brewing outside. There is a knock on the door and she goes to answer it. It's agents Waller and Tanner and inform her, they have the Lab results back on the DNA and they have been questioning the somewhat facts since the results came in. They hand her the results and documentation. 

"My name is Scarlett Wilson?" Lisa gasps. "So, I was kidnapped." 

"Technically yes and - techinically yes," Waller replies. 

"Why do I get the feeling, there's more to what you're telling me or going to?"

"Your Birth parents, as it states there, are Harry and Tina Wilson. You were adopted by the Craig's from England and returned to the States, where they called you Rebecca. You lived in Utah, with your adopted parents Alan and Rose, until, you disappeared aged Nine," Tanner explains. 

"And lost memory, I gather?"

"According to a report from a Foster sister you had - Alicia I believe. You were both out playing and got close to a raging river. You were apparently mimicking a dance move from the Movie, Dirty Dancing. You were both standing on a log and it snapped and you fell in. Never to be seen or heard from again," Waller continues. 

"Possibly not long after, you were coincidently stumbled upon by a trafficker, whom took advantage of your vulnerable state, your missing memories and sold you off," Tanner said. 

Lisa / Scarlett  is shocked by the revelations brought to her. It's like the agents are telling her somebody else's life. She sits down on a stool, trying to comprehend the next chapter in her life. A life she forgot. 

"What about my adopted parents? Are they still alive?" Lisa queries. 

"I'm sorry to say, but your adopted mother Rose, took her own life, not long after you went missing. She became increasingly depressed. Your adopted father, Alan, is still alive. We'll of course, leave it down to you personally to decide, whether or not to make personal contact," Waller insists. 

"What about about Alicia? My foster sister?" 

"That we're trying to find out. We can't locate her," Tanner claims. 

Lisa continues to scour through Documentation and looks up her birth parents. 

(" Biological father, Harry Wilson, former Architect, managing assistant to Senator Otto Cole and current occupation Police Officer.
 Biological Mother...Deceased. Cause of Death. Crushed. Victim of September 11th 2001 terrorist attack, New York."
)

Lisa gets emotional when she looks at Tina's occupational History. It's seems Mother and daughter has similarities.

("Former Waitress  and Entertainer, London England and Singer / Dancer / Actress Broadway Entertainer..")

Lisa scours again and notices her adopted brother (who is really her biological half brother), Jack, has been missing for three years. Lisa's heart starts to pound and she places her hand on her chest to calm herself. Waller pulls up a chair and pauses momentarily. He could deliever the biggest bombshell of the whole lot. 

"Miss Johannson - Lisa. What's bizarre about this whole thing. We have information, that states, you located your biological father, around the Nine Eleven Attacks."

Lisa frowns at Wallers suggestion, almost as if he's trying to implicate her in something. 

"Uh, I no didn't," Lisa blurts. "I know that for a fact."

Tanner places a folder on the counter and Lisa opens it and sees a photo, Rebecca Turner and info of her claiming to be Scarlett Wilson. Lisa suddenly, has flashbacks from Sunday evening and quickly sees the resembelence of the woman she saw and found familiar. Lisa is drawn to the photo, as it soon dawns on her, who it is. A memory is slowly returning. Wallis suspects that Lisa, may know the identity of the person in the photograph. 

"Do you know who that is?" Wallis asks. 

"No. I've never see her before in my life," Lisa lies. 

"It's possible she's taken a different alias, like an adopted name or something and has claimed to be you," Tanner figures. 

"Weird, the name she's taken - first name that is - was your adopted first name," Wallis adds. "Are you sure you don't know her?" 

"I'm sure we'll find out in due course," Lisa answers. 

Wallis then gets a call on his cell phone and informs Lisa, they have something else to attend to for the time being and will be in touch for more questioning. They offer sympathy based on her discovery and will leave her to contemplate her future. Lisa, again visions the Golden haired woman at the Fairground from the previous Sunday and comes to a realization.

"Alicia," Lisa gasps to herself. 

Lisa heads to Broadway in a terrential downpour and speaks with Carson and asks him if he knew Tina Wilson? Carson states he knew Tina, through the now deceased James Fletcher. She then queries Harry and his daughter, Rebecca. Carson says he doesn't know Harry that well, but claims his daughter, knew her from working with her briefly at Bloomingdales. Lisa meets with Carson's daughter, who informs her, they moved to Francis Bay, Eastern Long Island, following her Uncle Jeff's death. 

Lisa sits in her apartment, as the rain keep bashing down and Lightening flashes. She looks at the time. It's 10:15 P.M. She darts up and runs to her car and drives off in the bad weather.

FRANCIS BAY. LONG ISLAND

It's around 12:15 a.m, after being guided by her map, Lisa arrives in Francis Bay. The thunderstorm continues and heavy rain continues to pour. She drives into the main town, when she is almost hit by another car screeching away, North East. Lisa, then spots a somebody in a trench coat running up the street and stops beside him. 

"Excuse me sir, do you know Harry Wilson?" Lisa shouts. 

"Sure, sure, he's the local cop," the man replies. "But, he's laid up right now. He broke his leg. Got kidnapped. Why are you looking for him, this time of night? In this weather? You must be crazy."

"It's an emergency."

"He's lives a mile or so along the coastal road. His house is where the Lighthouse is."

"Thank you."

Lisa drives the Wilson house in the pouring rain. Before she arrives, her wing mirror is clipped by a car, desperately trying to get away from something or someone. Lisa arrives, as the storm intensifies and the front door of the Wilson residence is open. She hurries in, calling out, as the house is in complete darkness. Suddenly, the downstairs basement is kicked open and Joshua Norton appears, bloodied and bruised. 

"We need help. That bitch and her son are fucking nuts!" Joshua pleads. 

Lisa tends to the half brother she doesn't know. When she places her hand on his shoulder, she experiences the psychic abilities for the first time. 

Joshua's childhood with Lacy and his adopted father, Phil.
Lacy Norton's funeral

Joshua then has psychic visions too, based on Lisa's life.

Lisa being brought up on the Johannson Farm in Kansas
Lisa finding out, she was kidnapped by the Johannson's / Lisa following Rebecca through the Central Park Fairground (Double Progeny - Final Season). 

Lisa escorts him into the living room and sits him down, where Lisa goes to call the Police, but the phone line is dead, so decides to call on her cell phone. Before, she can she an hear dripping. Joshua with the torch, he used to help him escape the basement points it up at the ceiling and they spot water, leaking through the ceiling, from the Dining area. 

"Oh my God. Rebecca," Joshua panics.

Lisa grabs the torch off Joshua and dashes upstairs and finds direction to where the leak is coming from. She heads into Harry and Bethany's bedroom and find the connecting bathroom door is locked. Water is flooding through the door and with all her might, Lisa kicks the door in and finds Rebecca unconscious, under bath water. Lisa quickly rushes in and turns the faucet off and drags Rebecca out of the water and performs mouth to mouth resuscitation on her and massages her heart. Rebecca regains consciousness and look up at Lisa, gasping for air. Rebecca can just make out Lisa through the torch light. Both look relieved to see each other, despite the circumstances. 

"Hello, Alicia," Lisa re- introduces herself.

"Oh my God. Rebecca. It is you. You're alive," Rebecca acknowledges.

Amongst the Thunder, Lightening and the rain, a gun shot is heard in the distance. 

 

(From this point Lisa Johannson/ Rebecca Craig is now known as Scarlett Wilson).

JOSHUA'S STORY


Monday
March 3rd
2003


Joshua and Harry go for a walk, near the Lighthouse, as Bethany heads out, claiming she's going to get some shopping in Manhattan and will be several hours. Rebecca is in doors, making arrangements for Emma's burial, even though it was who accidently killed her, the week before. Joshua plays Harry, the recorder, that he found in Dominic's underground basement computer room. Father and Son, make sure the coast is clear and Joshua plays the tape of Joe Hayes interrogation of Bethany which occurred in the episode 'Silent Treatment.' With Joe Hayes power Bethany admitted to   conspiring with Dominic, to murder Jeff in the Caribbean, not before the Cosmo's hypnotized Harry's brother, to commit murder and assisting a wanted al -Qaeda terrorist to plant a Nuclear bomb, in Manhattan, months after 9/ 11. Bethany also explains being in a Mental Instution, after going into severe depression for accidently killing James King in an Arson attack, because Dominic required insurance and had thought Charlotte and his kids, were going away that evening to visit, her mother, but was cancelled at the last minute. Carla had blackmailed Dominic to be on call for jobs with the Cosmo's if requested, for getting her younger sister involved in his problems. Bethany also confesses to being involved  in the murders, of Meta Human Vampire, and former Cosmo's Operative Linda Perry, Harry's former work colleague, Steven Whittaker and Rebecca's birth mother, Clara Barton. Bethany also mentions her and Charlotte covering up Glenda Robinson's death in Hex-Ville. Bethany also states that Carla, her Fugitive sister, reunited her with Benjamin. Harry is shocked by the revelations and is sickened by the fact, he's been married to a psychopath for nearly a year and a half and not only that has been involved in multiple murders and Dominic has been blackmailed, due to ordering an Arson attack, which killed his son. Harry is determined to make those who have pained him and his family, pay. He does however, does recquire the help of Dominic, to bring Bethany down, as he feels Carla will not hide forever, if somethig terrible was to happen to Bethany and he will be reunited with Jack. Harry asks Joshua for a favour and to somehow get into the Cabin House and retrieve the necklace, that has Extraterretrial power. Joshua insists on calling the Police, but Harry insists they do it the right way, as he needs Bethany and Benjamin to be arrested together, as one or the other could alert Carla as the Cosmo's are dangerous behind the scenes. Dominic seems to want to get even with Bethany himself, but if he's to go to jail, the truth will devastate Deloris. Joshua asks if Harry has a spare key for the Cabin? Harry figures Bethany keeps it with her, in case of somebody suspects them. Joshua suggests an idea.  Rebecca is heard calling Harry and Joshua into the house and a News Report comes on the T.V., 'that Abraham Carlisle is missing from the Metropolitan Hospital Center and had been in a Coma for nearly two months.'  

Joshua visits Benjamin at the Fishery and again apologizes for accidently, driving his Truck into the Harbour and asks for a peace offering, considering he may be staying for a while at the Wilson residence?

"Sure, what do you have in mind?" Benjamin accepts, without so much as a hesitation. 

"Great, " Joshua says. "How about at your Cabin tonight? A few Beers and Pizza. I'll pay of course."

"Tonight I can't. Got a Pool game with the Boy's tonight at 'The Anchor Bar' tonight."

"Uh, OK. How about, tomorrow night?"

"Yeah, thats cool. I'll let you know what time."

Joshua is happy, that he's easily conjured a way to get into Benjamin's Cabin House, without using force. His convincing seemed too easy. However, he may have to wait a full day to get inside. Joshua leaves and Benjamin looks in the mirror and winks at himself. 

When Joshua returns home, he hears Rebecca desperately trying to convince Harry to get the Police involved, now they have incriminating on Bethany.

"This Cosmo's Organization is dangerous. Possibly as deadly, as al-Qaeda," Harry warns. They have ways to manipulate the Government and the Law. This has to be done right. If we do this right, we will have to leave Francis Bay."

"You mean underground? Rebecca figures. 

"Right." 

Joshua sits down. 

"What and why have they been creating and using these Meta Humans or whatever?" Joshua asks.

"What we thought was a myth, about a hundred and two years ago, an Extraterrestrial Meteor struck the Western States of America, following a Super Nova light years ago. This Meteor caused a chain reaction, that effectively created Generations of what you call - special people. Some lived there lives in exile, some lived with it or kept in encarceration. Rumour had it Area 51, many decades later, studied the Meta Human's and theory has it, many scientists or persons unknown starting causing corporate Espionage and created Drugs through research and sold these drugs on the Black Market to mutate humans into these different beings," Harry explains. 

"For what purpose?"

"Initially, the Governments project was to study them for Military purposes. I guess it comes in handy, if you have an Alien Human Being involved in a War or secret Missions. The underground Gemini, was all about Criminal activity, anything that could break National Security and Law in General."

"Where'd you get all this information?" Rebecca asks. 

"Rumours, Magazines and talk shows. Some folk have either disappeared or been killed for spreading their versions of what they know. Gemini was supposedly shut down in the late seventies. Next I heard about Meta Humans and the Cosmos, was around the time, Wall Street was compromised and Jeff discovered his second wife was involved with the Cosmos."

"So the Cosmos have continued where Gemini left off?" Joshua guesses. 

"Many years later, yes. Bethany's sister that is, where her father's concerned."

"Was that through rumours?"

Harry hesitates. 

"Uh..yeah." 

Joshua and Rebecca acknowledge the situation involving the Cosmos and Bethany's connection to her sister. They agree to trap Bethany and Benjamin in the right way. Joshua tells Harry, that Benjamin agreed to a peace offering, th next evening and that they all put their plan in motion and if it does work, Rebecca may have to miss Emma's funeral. Joshua stands up and taps Harry on the shoulder. He has a psychic flashback based on his father. 

Harry dancing with Carla Morrison at the High School Christmas party in 1978 (Friday the 13th - Final Season)
Harry and Steven Whittaker at a party with friends and associates  in 1988. He meets up with an attractive dark haired woman in her early thirties. It's Carla Morrison. They start dancing and they go back to his apartment and have sex. Harry awakes the next morning with a note left on his bedside saying "Catch ya later Stud."

Joshua finds this revelation a bit surprising. He doesn't say anything.   Joshua heads into the Kitchen. 

Tuesday
March 4th
2003


Joshua awakes with a throbbing headache and looks at the time. It's 11:30 a.m. He cannot believe he's slept in close to the afternoon. He exits the bedroom and heads downstairs, to find Rebecca alone in the kitchen, looking like she's been on an all night bender, herself. There is aspirin on the table and Joshua takes some with a glass of water. Rebecca shows Joshua a note by Bethany, claiming Harry felt some sort of repercussion of his leg injury and had to rush him Hospital. The two find this rather suspicious, considering both have slept in late. Rebecca calls Bethany on her cell phone. It is turned off. 

Joshua and Bethany head into town, to find Benjamin, who is not at work and has not called in. They head over to the bank and discover , Bethany should have worked a shift, but has also not showed up. They start to get really concerned and suspect their worst fears. They head over to the Kings Cafe and see that, the Closed sign is put up, which the local residents start to question. Joshua suggests going to authorities, but Rebecca reminds him, the two of them are on their own and could succumb to the threat of the Cosmos, as they could risk Harry's life, if authorities get involved. 

Later that evening, Bethany returns and claims that Harry needs a second operation. Rebecca asks why should turned her phone off? Bethany tells her, her phone battery went flat. Then coincidently Benjamin turns up and informs them all, he stayed at a friends house, following a night out at the Anchor Bar. Benjamin reminds Joshua of the Pizza night that he offered and Joshua reluctantly stands by his offer. Suddenly, it starts to pour down with rain, along with thunder and lightening in tow. 

It's late, the thunderstorm gets worse and Joshua grabs the phone to call for a Pizza, when the phone goes dead. He rushes outside and knocks on Benjamins cabin door and he opens it up and states that the phone lines dead and he surprisingly lets him know it's no problem and quickly gets him out of the pouring rain and offers Joshua a beer. Benjamin lays his cards on the table and figures there's no hard feelings. Joshua starts to drink his beer, when Benjamin has to excuse himself. With Benjamin going to the bathroom, Joshua sees his chance and goes in search of the disk, that contains all the secrets of the Cosmos and other critical information. Joshua starts to be overcome with dizziness and he spots Benjamin coming into the bedroom. Joshua tries to lunge at him, but he's groggy and Benjamin punches him. 

Darkness, Joshua is in a dark room and it sounds like, he's got nowhere to run, as he's tied up. There's sounds of bumping and crashing, as well as the sound of Thunder outside the room. The house is continuously gets bashed by heavy rain and Lightening continues to light the light sky. 

Wednesday
March 5th
2003

It's around 12:20 a.m., Joshua is still in complete dark and there's continuous crashing and bumping. Suddenly, it stops and there's the sound of fumbling and then a torch light, shines in a the dark room. It appears Joshua is in the Wilson Basement. He looks bloodied and bruised and rushes up the Basement stairs and with all his might after several attempts kicks the door through and in comes Scarlett Wilson, soaking wet from the heavy thundery rain. She assists him into the Living Room. Scarlett attempts to ring authorities on the house phone, but the phones dead, so she tries on her cell. Before she can, the two hear dripping and Joshua points the Torch up to the ceiling. 

"Oh my God. Rebecca," Joshua panics.

Scarlett grabs the torch off Joshua and rushes up the staircase. Joshua fighting the pain, gets to his feet and groggily walks into the hallway clutching his side. Amongst the Thunder, flashes of Lightening and heavy rain, a gun shot rings out.

REBECCA'S STORY


Monday
March 3rd
2003

 

Rebecca is alone in the house and there is a cold chill, surrounding her. She hears voices calling out her name and fears she is losing her mind. Rebecca looks in the Basement and finds nobody down there. Then, she searches in the Kitchen, Living Room and Dining Room. Completly empty of any other persons. The Voices still call out to her. Cautiously and nervously, the twenty three year old, ascends the staircase and is about to head into Harry and Bethany's room, when she is distracted by a massive cold wind, coming from the direction of her bedroom. Rebecca slowly walks to her bedroom door and knowing how scared she is, she still turns the door handle and the bedroom door flies open. To her horror, she sees the corpses of the one's she loved, Linda Perry, Clara Barton and Emma Wilson sitting up staring at her, calling out for her to help them. Rebecca hyperventilates and stumbles backwards, as the three dead girls manoeuvre towards her. Then, Rebecca turns around and is met by the ghost of Gloria Lang, who taunts her, 'It's all your fault.' Rebecca screams and slips and falls through the Bannister and towards ground. 

Rebecca jolts up from her Nightmare, trembling. She scours the room and finds herself back in reality. Taking a deep breath, she has a brief flashback from the previous evening. The mysterious Brunette following her through the Central Park Fairground. Rebecca stares into Space, as she comes to a possible realization.

"Oh my God," Rebecca says to herself. 

Rebecca and Joshua do there utmost best, to put an act on in front of Bethany, whom they intend to have incarcerated very soon, for her evil crimes. And that goes for her psycho son, Benjamin too. Bethany claims she is heading into Manhattan for a few hours and is happy to allow Harry to acquaint himself to his long lost son. When Bethany heads out, Rebecca curses her silently. 

"Fuck off, you rotten Bitch," Rebecca seethes. " Same goes for that looney son of yours."

"Take it easy Becks," Joshua calms. " We don't want her getting suspicious."

Rebecca relaxes, with vengeance a main priority in mind. Considering, Bethany had her Biological mother, Clara murdered on Christmas Eve. 

"I can't believe Benjamin was her Bastard son all along," Rebecca states. 

"And I can't believe you Lesbian affair with her," Joshua replies. 

"Tu Shay. I'm not proud of it. It's just...I'm kinda messed up."

"Yeah, but you're not a Psycho. It's shit that we know few."

"I did cover for my Vampire Lover - Linda. She couldn't help it. She told me she was inadvertently infected by Harry's Brother's second wife, Lea, before she died. She was having an affair with Christopher."

"Harry's adopted nephew?" Joshua figures. 

"Right," Rebecca agrees. 

"What happened to him then?"

"It wouldn't surprise me if either Bethany or Benjamin got to him and...you know."

"Well, with the tape recorder, I've got safely tucked away. It might give us some answers, to give us a plan to take, her, Bates and Dominic down."

While, Joshua takes Harry for a stroll near the estuary, to show him the Tape recorder, Rebecca makes plans for Emma's funeral. While she's on the phone, she has flashbacks of the Scarlett, pursuing her in Manhattan and her falling in a river in 1989. 

While, Joshua goes into town to find Benjamin, Rebecca tries to convince Harry to go to the Police, following Joshua revealing the tapes contents to him. After Rebecca's listens to Bethany and Dominic's inadvertent confessions to Joe Hayes, it's just instinct that she would consider, Harry does the right thing. Harry states that Bethany's connection to the Cosmos could alert on call operatives to act and they could be caught off guard.  The door opens and Joshua enters, informing the two, that Benjamin has accepted his fony peace offering, the next evening. 

Tuesday
March 4th
2003

Rebecca awakes at 11:15 am, with a throbbing headache and she shuffles downstairs and goes to grab a coffee and aspirin. Rebecca finds a note by Bethany, claiming Harry has suffered a repercussion of his leg injury and had to rush him to Hospital. Rebecca finds these new events suspious. 

Rebecca and Joshua head into town, to find Benjamin, who is not at work. They then head over to look for Bethany, who should have worked a shift , but has also not turned up. They both get concerned  and suspect, their worst fears. Joshua suggests going to the authorities, but Rebecca reminds him of the Cosmos

While, both, Rebecca and Joshua wait anxiously at home, a Weather report comes on the TV, of  a severe Thunderstorm and torrential downpours going through New York City and Long Island. Bethany arrives home and claims Harry recquires a second operation and that her phone battery went flat. 

Later, Joshua attempts to call for a Pizza, but the phone goes dead, due to the Heavy Thunderstorm, that's ongoing. He goes to Benjamin's Cabin House, leaving Rebecca alone with Bethany. Rebecca queries if she can speak to Harry? Bethany suggests he is too tired to talk and was sedated, due to severe pain. Bethany heads to the Kitchen to fetch some wine. Rebecca gets nervous. Bethany returns and dims the lights, as Lightening profusely flashes through the window and the continous sound of rain lashes against the window. Bethany pours their glasses and she sits across from, somebody that is planning her downfall. 

"Becky, love, what do you think of me?" Bethany blurts. 

"I'm sorry, what?" Rebecca frowns. 

"What I mean is, have I treated you well?"

"Bethany where's this going?"

"I miss us. You and me."

Rebecca feels annoyed and on tender hooks, as she sips her wine. Bethany is attempting manipulate her again. 

"Don't start that again," Rebecca suggests. 

"Why?" Bethany sniggers. 

"You're not the person I expected to live with."

"You were not the person I expected to live with, but I love you."

"Do you? Or am I your sex toy, you try to win over, when you think you're getting found out?"

"Everything, I've sacrificed, to save us, was because I love you."

"What would Dad say, if he found out, you're bed hopping with your step daughter?"

Bethany looks at Rebecca confidently and seems completely unerved by subtle hints, that she is giving. 

"What would your father say, if he found out, you were not his daughter?" Bethany adds. 

"Well, it wouldn't be worse, than your dirty secrets stashed in the cupboard?" Rebecca counters. 

"Oh the Cosmos."

"And the rest."

There's a huge thunder clap, as Bethany suspects Rebecca knows more than she's letting on. Rebecca starts to feel uneasy and tiresome. Almost like she is about to passed out, but refrains herself from doing so. Bethany smirks and places down her glass. She kicks off her shoes. 

"It's getting hot in here isn't it?" Bethany puffs. 

"If you say so," Rebecca groans. 

Bethany then takes off her skirt and reveals black stockings. When Rebecca sees this, she hallucinates that Linda Perry is undressing in front of her. Bethany has drugged her and Rebecca is seeing things. 

"And the rest too?" Bethany teases. 

"Linda behave yourself, you naughty naughty woman."

Rebecca has succumbed to the drugs and controlled. 

"Lets get hot and wet," Bethany encourages. 

Rebecca visualizes herself in the shower with Linda Perry, whom she once loved and protected when she was a vampire. In fact, it's Bethany taking advantage of her and thrusting against her, with her leg rapped around her waist. The radio is on in the shower room, during the sex act, playing the 1962 song, 'Do You Love Me,' By the Contours.

The next thing Rebecca remembers, is being rescucitated by Scarlett Wilson in a dark Bathroom, with the acception of flashes of Lightening and a torch light, held by Scarlett. Rebecca recognizes the familiar face and both are relieved to see each other. 

"Hello Alicia, Lisa re-introduces herself. 

"Oh my God. Rebecca. It is you. You're alive," Rebecca acknowledges. 

Amongst the Thunder, Lightening and Rain, a gun shot rings out in the distance.

DOMINIC AND DELORIS STORY


Monday

2003

KINGS CAFE


The Coroner releases Charlotte's body and this gives Dominic and Deloris the time to make arrangements for her funeral. Police suggest somebody, she was bludgeoned with a large sharp weapon, possibly a Machete. This starts ringing alarm bells in Dominic's head and instinctively thinks it has something to do with either Bethany or Benjamin. Also, Bethany would want to silence Charlotte on the death of Glenda Robinson. 

Dominic heads into the Basement and finds the chained up door has been tampered with or damaged. He dashes back upstairs and goes to his draw in the bedroom and goes behind it , to find a key hidden away. He goes back into the Basement and unlocks the chains and opens up the double doors, where the secret computers are. He looks inside Cabinets and every nook and cranny for the Joe Hayes tapes. They've gone missing and Dominic fears the game could be up, pretty soon. Panicking he desperately, chains the door up and hears Deloris call out to him. He jumps to her call out and clumsily drops the key, which scatters across the Basement floor. He acknowledges her call and informs her, he'll be up soon. 

Deloris suggests opening the Cafe, but Dominic insists there is no rush. More people stop by with flowers and offer condolences on their grief.  Dominic is overwhelmed and frightened, he is physically sick. Deloris sees the toll, it has on her father, but is unaware that he is partly responsible for the death of her brother, who was killed in an arson attack by Bethany, a few years prior to the Millenium. 

Dominic goes to see Charlotte's coffin, unbeknown to him, Bethany is watching him. She is then distracted by a phone call. Deloris decides to open the cafe, if only for a while and heads downstairs to fetch some boxes. She discovers the key to the secret door. She starts to wonder what it could be for, however with Customers coming in, she can't spend to long to ponder and heads back up. When Dominic returns, he heads upstairs to freshen up and then comes to a realization, that he's lost the key. Deloris, starts wondering why her father is taking too long and enters the apartment above the cafe and sees Dominic in hysterics. Deloris makes sure her father, doesn't see her and quickly assumes, he's looking for the tiny key, that's now in her possession. 

Deloris is rushed off her feet, but Dominic enters and puts on a brave face and looks into the direction of the Kitchen, which leads to the Basement and back door. He pretends he's going to get more stock to cook for customers. He dashes down into the Basement and desperately seeks the key, his daughter now has. He is in turmoil and struggles to contain himself. In the last few days, he appears to want to confess to Harry, that he is involved in Jeff's murder and that, he's been blackmailed into helping Carla and the Cosmos, due to the fact he involved Bethany in an Arson, that freakishly killed his son James, which led to Charlotte being committed briefly.

Around 12:00 A.M., Deloris gets out of bed and tries to find locks, that the keys fits. She heads downstairs into the Cafe, but cannot figure out what. Then, she remembers the chained up double doors, which she is made to believe leads into the underground sewers. Deloris descends into the Basement and unlocks the chains and opens the double doors. She is stunned to find, multiple, dusty and shutdown computers. Deloris is confused and starts to become curious and finds file cabinets in the underground room. She pulls open the drawers and finds information based on the Cosmos. Deloris then finds what a appears an short invoice from a while back. "Remember You Owe me. Florida Keys at 5 o' Clock." Deloris is beside herself. She now begins to fear, her father has had a secret life. Then he appears behind her and now knows he has to come clean. 

"It's not what you think Deloris," Dominic begs. 

Deloris turns round and is horrified, that her father, has kept something so sinister under hers and her deceased mother's noses. Then, a familiar and unwanted female sounds her voice in the Basement. 

"Oh, yes, it is Dominic," Bethany interrupts. 

Bethany and Benjamin have entered the Basement. Bethany holds a gun, pointing it at Dominic. A while passes, Dominic and Deloris have there hands and legs tied to each other, with their backs to one another. Bethany is now in control and Benjamin is more than willing and happy to assist her mother. Deloris is beside herself, as she has now become part of the dark twist, involving Dominic, Bethany and Benjamin. 

"Daddy, what's going on?" Deloris cries. 

"You want to tell her or shall I?" Bethany gloats. 

"Yeah, Cmon, Dominic. Your hands are not exactly clean are they?" Benjamin taunts. 

"I never wanted any of this," Dominic worries. 

"You should  have thought of that, before you used me," Bethany states. 

Bethany walks around to face a confused and vulnerable Deloris, who is completely in the dark. Bethany kneels down and strokes Deloris hair. It's kind of intimidating. 

"You poor kid. You really don't know your father at all do you? Bethany figures. "He comes across as this..innocent, goofy citizen, who has really done more harm than you realize. That harm, has forced my hand. Because, other people have got too nosey and too involved. I have to do away with them..just like all the others." 

Deloris fears for her life, as tears fall down her face. 

"You're gonna kills us?" Deloris panics. 

"I don't know yet."

Bethany gets to her feet and walks around to face Dominic. 

"Your father may make my decision for me. I'll give you twenty four hours Dominic. You can continue to fight me or you can admit what you are. Just as evil as I am."

Benjamin kneels down in front of  Deloris and touches her face and kisses her. Deloris feels uncomfortable, by the thought of her evil Ex Boyfriend, putting his hands on her again. 

"I'm sorry, it's come to this Deloris. You did mean a lot to me," Benjamin lies. 

"Why, Benjamin? Why?" Deloris pleads. 

"It's in my nature. I'm mother's son."

Deloris then gets the hint and realizes, that Bethany is actually Benjamin's Mother, who's been pretending to be the tenant next door. She begins to wonder, if Bethany moving to Francis Bay, with Rebecca and Harry was intentional and that it was a set up, to manipulate Dominic - unbeknown to Harry and Rebecca of course. Benjamin gets to his feet and stands beside Bethany. 

"I haven't killed anybody, I've associated with closely yet," Bethany claims. "Well, almost."

Bethany hinting to the murder of Charlotte. 

"Only outsiders, that have become a thorn in my side," Bethany continues. 

"Harry found you out has he? About fucking time. You're gonna kill the one man, you been madly in love with all your life. That's gonna take some guts, just to keep your sister in exile. Just shows how much, you're at the end of your tether. You think killing everyone, that knows your dirty secrets inside and out, will set you free? No. Your past will haunt you for the rest of your life, just as mine will," Dominic explains. 

"A man with a human touch. I have managed to cover my tracks well so far. Even with this latest development and push comes to shove. I'll still be walking, at the end of this. Now, do you want to explain to Deloris or...?"

Bethany reveals the tape recording of Joe Hayes interrogation of Bethany, confessing to killing James in an Arson attack. 

"The now deceased Joe Hayes?"

Benjamin sniggers. Bethany places the recorder back in her pocket, still holding Dominic and Deloris at gun point. 

"Give him twenty hours to think about it." 

Bethany and Benjamin ascend the Basement staircase and Deloris comes to a realization. 

"You killed my mother didn't you?" Deloris blurts. 

Bethany and Benjamin stop half way up the staircase and Bethany looks smug. 

"What did she find out, that made you take her away from?" Tearfully asks. 

"I'll let your father confess his sins, then you'll understand," Bethany calmly replies. 

Deloris senses that Bethany is almost confessing to murder and gets really furious. 

"You Bitch! You fucking Bitch! I will fucking kill you!" Deloris rages, struggling with the ropes. 

"I'm sure will," Bethany smirks. 

Bethany and Benjamin exit the Basement and slam the door shut, leaving only a small dim light on. Dominic now has the biggest test of his life. Seeking forgiveness from his daughter and still have a relationship with her.

King's Cafe
Francis Bay, Long Island


It's the early hours, Dominic and Deloris are tied to chairs together  - Arms and legs - backs to each other. Bethany and Benjamin have them trapped in their own Basement, after Deloris discovered a secret computer system behind a concealed door, that holds sinister secrets and an underground criminal organization. Dominic has no choice, but to confess his sins to the only family he has left. Bethany or Benjamin, may or may not return in twenty hours, depending on circumstances and what fate lies ahead. Bethany hinted be involved in Charlotte's murder and Deloris is threatening her revenge on the cold hearted wife of Harry. Deloris is scared and shivers with the cold. Dominic's guilt hits him like a ton of bricks. Staring at a possible death sentence or another blackmail, it's time for doing the right thing for Dominic.  

"Are you alright Sweetheart?" Dominic calls out to his daughter. 

"No I ain't," Deloris seethes. "Daddy, what the fuck is going on?" 

"I wish it didn't come to this. I had no choice."

"She killed my mother didn't she?"

Dominic cannot deny it's highly likely. 

"Yes, she did."

"Why?"

Dominic takes a deep breath, about to admitting to gruesome and shocking events. 

"Do you remember Glenda Robinson, my former Head Teacher?"

"I met her briefly, when we went to the Class of Seventy Nine reunion in Hex-Ville last year....why what she have to do with all this?" 

"She was a groomer. And she groomed me - for a while - back in my High School years."

"Did Mom know?" Deloris asks. 

"Not then. I felt ashamed," Dominic confesses. "However, some of the teenagers were getting hints that I was....you know."

Deloris is stunned, that Dominic allowed Glenda to get away with the abuse. 

"You let her get away with this? She was a borderline Pedophile."

"She knew Kray, the local police officer, was a sexual predator himself, so they covered their own backs really."

Deloris is upset at the thought, her father was taken advantage of, by someone in high authority and education. But, she will most certainly be devastated by what's to come next. 

"But, what's this got to do with, why that Bitch took my Mom away from me?" Deloris cries. 

"When, that power cut occurred, at the Hex-Ville Reunion Party, your Mom had a confrontation with Robinson in a school classroom. That's when your Mom, found out she took advantage of me years earlier. I don't know what happened, I didn't get all the gory details, but Robinson was killed and Charlotte helped Bethany dispose of the body in a Garbage bin."

"Bethany didn't want my Mom going to the police?"

"I guess not?"

"Did Mom tell you that?"

"Yes and no."

Deloris frowns in confusion. How else would Dominic discover Charlotte and Bethany covering up a death? 

"Then how?" Deloris asks. 

Dominic hesitates, as he's getting to the biggest test of the all the secrets he's had hidden. 

"Joe Hayes."

"The guy who stopped by here and that held you all hostage and killed Ted Sumner?

"...Yes. He had a Meta Human power, that could force people to tell the truth, even if they didn't want to."

"And he forced the truth out of Bethany? Was he hired by someone?"

"It's possible."

"Somebody, who was aware of what happened in Hex-Ville?"

Dominic suspects that wasn't the reason, Joe Hayes was originally sent to Francis Bay. He may not be aware, that Eric Lance AKA Hank Willis sent Joe Hayes on a mission, that eventually killed him. 

"....I don't know."

Deloris thinks for a moment and peers through the dark, at the secret shutdown computer room, that's been hidden under the Cafe. She suspects, there's more than what her father was saying and Bethany also gave that impression. 

"But, that's not all, is it Dad?" Deloris realizes. 

"No, it's not," Dominic admits.

"Did you and Bethany have an affair?"

Dominic hesitates momentarily. 

"It wasn't like that," Dominic responds, not really denying being intimate with her. 

"Then what?" Deloris pushes. 

"It was just one time, years ago. It didn't mean anything."

"That's what they all say. "It didn't mean anything." Maybe that's why Bethany killed Mom, because she was going to tell Harry."

Dominic starts to cry. He is now about to confess to the worst things, he's done possible and it's also possible, that he and Deloris will never recover their Father Daughter relationship after this. 

"I love you," Dominic states. 

"You do?" Deloris questions. "Then tell me, what you were sent down to Miami for."

Dominic freezes, sensing Deloris has found something in the secret computer room, that could incriminate him. 

"What did you find in that room, Deloris?" Dominic fears. 

"Never mind that," Deloris ignores. "What were you sent down to Miami for last year?"

"I was sent on a mission. Assist on a mission."

"You were working for someone?"

"Yes."

"Who?"

Dominic cannot bare to tell his daughter the murderous truth. But, he has no choice, if there is a chance they will survive. 

"The Cosmos." 

Deloris is beside herself, that her father would commit himself to working for a criminal organization, who's intent was causing personal anguish to millions and corporate espionage. 

"Wh...that secret society that studied people with abilities or used them for profit?" Deloris figures. 

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"What you mean, why was I sent down to Miami or why I was....?"

"Both."

Dominic sobs again, as it's starting to get too much. He doesn't want to lose his daughter. 

"I love you, you know that," Dominic tears up. 

"Just tell me," Deloris demands. 

"I went to meet, the person I was assisting to commit murder and make sure the person was harmed. We went down to the Florida Key's, where we were picked up by pirates and taken near small islands in the Caribbean. We dropped the person off in a dingy about a mile off land and waited until, they completed their mission," Dominic explains. 

"You assisted in murder? Why you? The Cosmos? What had it got so bad you had to assist in murder?" 

"I've hated what I've done. That's why I moved us up here, to get away from all our troubles."

"But, then why is that computer system in this Basement?"

"Because the Cosmos, would have been onto me anyway. I couldn't just dump it off anywhere. I snuck this up here, just before you went off to college."

"You could have just walked away."

But, that Bitch and her psycho son, just won't leave it be."

"Bethany and Benjamin? What have they got to do with the Cosmos?" 

"....Benjamin is the contact I went to the Caribbean with last year."

"Benjamin? Who did he kill?"

"In theory terms, his alias killed, Benita, murdered....Jeff Wilson. Harry's Brother. 


FLASHBACK FROM EARLY SUMMER 2002 

Late at night, Francis Bay, Dominic is putting out the trash in the Alley and when he turns around, he spots an envelope on the ground and opens it to reveal the Telegram, ordering him to go to Miami as soon as possible and that he calls a certain number at a certain time. He does so and Bethany answers and reveals the latest hideout of the Cosmos, was discovered three weeks earlier in the Bermuda Triangle and was revealed by a server used on a remote island in the Caribbean and that she was reluctant to use Benjamin to seek out Jeff. But, she insisted Dominic assist him, to be sure nothing goes wrong. The next morning, Dominic tells Charlotte, that a friend of his, has suggested going fishing at a Lake mid west for a few days. Charlotte is annoyed by this, but is reluctant to allow him to go and let her run the Cafe on her own. 

Dominic takes a flight from JFK Airport and he keeps scouring the aisles of the plane to see if he's being spied on. Upon exiting the airport, he drops he luggage momentarily and an anonymous note appears, while he's distracted. He reads the note, which instructs him to go to Miami Beach. He arrives at a Restaurant, where he drinks a shot and goes unconscious. He later awakes that early evening, in the Florida Keys and sees a taller figure - possible female with his/her back to him looking in the mirror on a private cruiser. The persons turns around and the mysterious person is Benjamin Bates aka as Benita - who is presently the Francis Bay Killer. He dons a long blonde wig, heavy eye make up and red lipstick. He is dressed in a long black cloak and high heeled hostess shoes. Dominic doesn't have an incline of who the cross dresser is. 

"Hello honey, sleep well?" Benita teases, blowing a kiss. 

"Who are you?" Dominic comes round.

"Benita. My mother sends her regards."

"I'm reluctant to do this you know."

"Yes, I know. But, Jeff Wilson is mean't to be dead anyway, darling."

"Don't call me that."

"Sorry, honey."

"Whatever."

"How Jeff Wilson survived that Execution in Texas, has left my Aunt Carla mystified and she'll expected nothing else, than a guarantee that he doesn't cause anymore trouble to us or my mothers marriage to his brother."

"Then, what do want me for?"

"My Aunt Carla knows I'm not screwed up well and well..my mother worries. But, I was willing to help, but knowing my mother loves me, she wanted you to be reminded, what she helped you with."

"Helped me? It's fucking destroyed my life."

"I know. But, like it was agreed, this will be the last time, if things go the way we want. Then, you can go back and be the loving husband, you've always been."

Dominic looks down at Benita's High Heel Shoes. 

"They don't suit the rest you're wearing," Dominic points out.

"Oh, these, yeah," Benita agrees. " No, they don't. I have Stiletto Boots in my bag. But, I'll wear these for tonight, since this is a special occasion. Kind of nice of the Air Hostess to gift them to me."

"Which Air Hostess is that?"

Benita opens up a closet and reveals the remains of a mutilated air hostess. She has been chopped her with a Machete. Dominic jumps out of his skins at the sight of the gruesome discovery. 

"Holy Shit!" Dominic screeches. 

"She got a little too close to my cock. So I chopped her Tits off. She thought we were going off on an adventure."

"I see."

"Our get our lovely boys to make you up a drink or something to eat. I hope you have a good appetite, before we get underway."

Dominic glances at the body, feeling sick. 

"Sure."
