(September 14, 1998 in Barbados)

Calliope was at Euge's home. He went to the kitchen to get her a soda but he told her not to touch anything. Of course she didn't listen and ended up blowing up all of Eugene's inventions.

Eugene was livid luckily Abe arrived in time to stop any further arguing.(because I just can't take these two) Howie went to the police and told them about the guy who went over the pier. The prism was in the water (by the way I thought Howie had managed to put it away in time) however the police thought he was somehow connected to the attempted robbery seeing he fit the description and so they called Maxwell Hathaway.

Max came down to the station with Megan and Alice whom they had met up with earlier and she told them she had lost Hope. Alice explained to Maxwell how Hope had too much to drink and she was feeling neglected by Larry and she went there to look for him and that is why she was reacting that way.

Larry and Gwen were discussing the attempted robbery of the exhibit and he told Gwen he felt that Hope and Bo were somehow involved. Gwen didn't believe this was true but she asked Larry why he didn't tell Maxwell to go to hell and let them get on with their lives. Larry said he was tired of that spoiled brat Hope so Gwen told him well get a divorce then but he said no he still needed her for his campaign.

Back in Salem Abe asked Eugene if he he'd heard any word from Bo but Eugene said no and that he couldn't track them on his radar either. Abe said he was beginning to get worried.

Melissa and Pete ran into each other on the dock, Pete told her he'd gotten a place of his own and that he wanted to fix it up. It was above Shenanigans he said it wasn't as nice as Hope's but she was invited if she wanted to come.

Pete said it wasn't wise to be there on the dock so they left. Over at Blondies Liz and Neil were having dinner when the phone rang and it was for Liz the waiter told her it was Maxwell Hathaway. Earlier Neil had called and threatened him about the medical forms he told him he could tell the hospital he had signed some forms and they had disappeared and he was worried about them. Maxwell did not take this threat lightly he told Liz there was a problem with the loan on the club and he would speak to her when he got back to Salem.

Neil told her it was probably and accounting error and he would deal with it himself . Eugene arrived at Blondies where he met up with Melissa he told her Trista's cousin was coming to Salem and he wanted her to go out with him. Pete was coming through the club and he overheard as Melissa agreed to go on the date.

Back in New Orleans Howie was free to go from the police station after Maxwell told the police he didn't think he was involved. Hope was supposed to meet Bo at Oak Alley Plantation, she hitched a ride with these gypsies who told her they followed the wind and whatever direction it took them. Hope had to pay them money to take her there she also had to give the woman her dress in exchange for the woman's gypsy wear.

Bo in the mean time was wondering what was taking Hope so long he had to take a cleaning job in order for no one to suspect him. Finally Hope reached there and they embraced and kissed Bo told her he thought he had lost her and she told him you'll never lose me then the credits rolled.

(September 15, 1998 in Barbados)

Eugene met up with Trista's cousin Rick Evans he introduced him to Melissa and she welcomed him to Salem. Marlena arrived to greet Rick they weren't really cousins just by marriages I suppose he was like some distant cousin.

Bo and Hope were at Oak Alley Plantation and she tried on a dress that was from the 18th century so then the caretaker came and they tried to hide but he realized it was a trick as they came out of their hiding place he passed out from a bottle of cognac Bo had given him earlier. Bo lifted him up the stairs and put him to bed he said it was the least he could do.

Back in Salem Melissa, Marlena and Eugene were having dinner when Calliope walked in she saw Eugene there and went over to talk. Eugene wasn't very polite, after she left Eugene asked Melissa when she last spoke to Hope she said, "its been days, why?" Eugene told her he had a feeling she was in Paradise right about now.

Calliope went to the bar and ordered a drink, she and Chris made small talk and then she asked him out. (seems Calliope is very desperate for a man, either that or she wants to make Eugene jealous). Anyway, Melissa asked Rick if he wanted to take a walk which they did. They ended up on the dock of course and Rick asked her if she was now getting over someone. She said yes does it show that much, he told her if she was going to Salem University he would like to see her only as a friend of course. I think talking to him cheered Melissa up somewhat.

At The Strip Joint, Speed and Sam (Pete's boss) were pressuring Pete to perform again as usual he made a fuss. Calliope had brought over some more designs and Pete chose to go on stage as the Arabian knight he stripped to the song Lets hear It for the Boy and this time he stripped right down to a bikini that boy's got some moves. Speed and Sam told him how great he looked but Pete still wasn't sure about especially when Sam told him to keep the ladies happy.

Back at Oak Alley Plantation Bo was undressing Hope. She seemed a little nervous and she told him she was glad that they had waited. He had a dinner prepared and some Champagne (at least he was romantic about it) but Hope said she wasn't hungry. He finished undressing her and laid her on the bed. Then after a minute or so they were naked in bed together and he told her he was going to love her forever and asked her if she knew how good she felt.

They kissed again and Hope told him they should put up a sign Bo and Hope made love here for the first time. Hope said the first and second time and then she rolled on top of Bo. Then the credits rolled.

(9/17/98 in Barbados)

[Note: Hope and Bo were shown in bed together but that was what was shown in the previous episode and they didn't show them again.]

Kimberly and Anna were at Shenanigans and Kimberly told her she didn't like the animosity between Anna and herself and she wanted to bury the hatchet but Anna was still bitter. To prove her point to Anna when Tony joined them she told him he should forgive Anna because she was looking out for him and she didn't know that Andre wasn't really Tony.

Anna told her she was just saying that to make herself look good and then they all started arguing at once and Kimberly walked out, Tony followed her and told her maybe she was right maybe it was about time he did forgive her. Alex Marshall appeared and told Kimberly Marlena and Roman wanted her she then left with Alex.

Roman and Marlena were trying to convince Kimberly to stay with them but she wouldn't hear of hear it. Roman told her he heard Alex Marshall only washed the sheets once a week to save money. All of them started laughing.

Melissa went up to Pete's room to see him. This time he didn't push her away he told her he was going to save enough money to take her away from Salem so they could be together.

Tess who had went and picked up Barry from the hospital was feeing a bit down and so she went to her little brother to cry on his shoulder. Pete told her Kositchek loved her and that was all she needed.

Meanwhile in New Orleans Maxwell Hathway had the prism delivered and they were very nervous because the Cartel were on they way there and Bo couldn't be found.

Eugene was getting these impressions about something slimy and sleek but he couldn't figure out what it was.

Actually it was alligator that was in the same river that the real prism was. I think one of the alligators will swallow the prism. One of Maxwell's henchmen dared him to drop the prism. Maxwell said it was ridiculous as the prism was unbreakable. Maxwell said he would if he didn't believe him and Megan told him Daddy I don't think this is such a good idea. Maxwell didn't listen and dropped it anyway, the glass shattered. The Cartel said find Bo Brady right away then the credits rolled.

(Friday, September 18, 1998 in Barbados)

Bo and Hope dressed up as Rhett and Scarlet. They donned costumes from the museum and Bo proposed to her. He also gave her a ring and he read a poem to her whilst she said the words from her heart.

Howie was being chased by Maxwells men while he was on his way to Oak Alley Plantation to see Bo but he managed to lose them. Max was furious as he wanted to know how they could lose the guy as he was so conspicuous. I think Maxwell was beginning to lose it. Megan still believed that Bo had nothing to do with the theft, she believed that Bo had to have an explanation for his disappearance, she felt he was after the culprits.

Tony and Kimberly were at Tony's Penthouse she told him in no uncertain terms that she wasn't going back to Paris Tony agreed to this but only if she would work alongside Anna. Tony wanted to know why she seamed so petrified after he mentioned her going back to Paris. She told him she just didn't want to run into some one. Tony assumed it was an old boyfriend. Marlena arrived then to discuss with Tony the hospitals' fund raiser just as Kimberly was leaving Tony told her to come back in an hour they had further work to discuss.

Just then Alex Marshall and Marie Horton came in. She had cut her hair and asked Marlena if she liked it she said no I love it. Marie and Alex got into an argument about Howie Hoffsteder Marie told him she wasn't interested in him.

He said you prefer a man who's been to jail over me and she told him I don't which is worse--a man who's been to jail or a man who committed a crime and should be there but got away. Alex went silent at this comment.

Back in New Orleans Bo and Hope spotted a horse and buggy on the Plantation's grounds so they went for a ride in it they were laughing and kissing and then the episode ended.
