Episode # 9531
Tape date: Various
Director: Randy Robbins
Summary: Shawn and Belle break up, Cassie persuades Rex to move
back to DiMansion, Jack and Jen watch Palmer as she ends up in
trouble, Bo decides that he and Roman must take action, much to
Roman's protests.
Hartley House
Shawn and Rex are in their room doing homework when Mimi drops
by, letting Shawn know that she is looking for some alone time
with Rex. After Shawn leaves, Mimi tries to see what Rex is
working on, but he hides it from her. She asks if all is okay
with Cassie and apparently he doesn't know about her getting
drunk and arrest. So she begins to fill him about it. Over in
Belle's room, Cassie arrives as she and Belle immediately get
into it about Cassie going through Belle's things. Belle
eventually apologizes somewhat for over reacting. Chas shows up
and Belle gives him the cold shoulder and is rude to him. He
tells Cassie that he is headed to the party house and will call
her later. After he leaves, the girls argue again about Belle
being so rude. Cassie leaves and goes to Rex's room just in time
to overhear Mimi telling Rex what happened with Cassie. Cassie
finishes the story for Rex, telling him about calling John and
how he helped her. Cassie then begins to try to talk h! im into
moving back to the mansion with her. Mimi is against the idea and
makes it known. Rex pulls her aside and reminds her that she
promised to be Cassie's friend. As Cassie and Rex talk, Mimi
shuffles through Rex's papers at his desk, which really upsets
him. Cassie says that Mimi is just nosey and he agrees that he
needs his privacy. He decides that he IS moving back with Cassie
and begins to pack his things. In Belle's room, Shawn has
arrived, telling Belle that they need to work this out. Belle
gets upset with him all over again. She thinks that maybe they
just aren't to be. Shawn asks what can he do to prove himself,
but Belle feels that he can't, she feels that they have no
honesty and that they just don't belong together. She brings up
Jan as Shawn throws up his arms and goes to leave. She gives him
her box of keepsakes and he says that if she doesn't trust him,
he will just find someone who does. After arguing with Cassie,
Mimi storms off to Belle's room as both ! of them complain and
moan about Cassie running their lives. Belle tell s Mimi about
the breakup with Shawn. Shawn returns to his room as Cassie is
leaving and he tells Rex about the breakup as well. Cassie retuns
to Belle's room and begins needling Belle about Shawn. Penny (remember
her?) comes by with flyers, telling the girls about a new reality
dating show that is casting at Salem U. They read the flyers and
all decide that they are going to try out.
Salem PD
Hope is at home still listening to the police band radio. The
other cops are on the line, giving Roman a hard time (about
Kate's profession of love). They are calling him "Captain
Romeo" but neither he nor Bo answer calls. This begins to
worry Hope, who calls Julie to come over and sit with Zack. At
the copshop, Able finds out that they have had no contact with
them as Carson Palmer shows up riding Abe about what the "Brady
Boys" are up to now. Abe threatens him and he backs down.
Jack and Jennifer are listening from the hallway and hide as
Carson leaves. But before he leaves, he pulls a female cop aside
and instructs her to keep him up to date. They follow him back to
his office. Hope arrives in a frantic state, sure that something
has gone wrong. She wants Abe to order backup, but he says that
he can't spare anyone right now (hey, what about all those folks
standing around there?) She fears that Bo will try to go it alone.
Hill calls Palmer and gives! him an update and that the brothers
are ready to move.
Jack and Jenn follow him to his office and hear him talking to
someone but can't see who. Jack informs Jen that he placed the
bugged pin he gave her in Carson's office so they listen. It's
Maria with him and they talk about "taking care" of
Jack and Jenn. When she leaves, Jen follows her (much to Jack's
protests) as he keeps an eye on Carson. Outside, Maria realizes
she is being followed and sneaks up on Jen and whacks her on the
head with her purse. We later see Jenn tied up and gagged in the
trunk of Maria's car.
Meanwhile, Bo and Roman snoop around the house (Bo wants to break
down the door and go in, but Roman persuades him not to). The
look in a window and find a table full of drugs as Bo says "Jackpot".
A car pulls up and they hide in the bushes. It's Vin, the drug
guy who goes on in and gets a warning call from Palmer "code
blue". Jack overhears all this and high tails it to the
police station. A little while later, Maria shows up at Vin's and
tells him she spotted the guys casing the place out front. (She
remembered Bo from the other night). She also tells him about
Jennifer. He isn't too happy and tells her to dump her somewhere,
he doesn't care what she does with her. Bo and Roman head back to
the car and wait for the backup that never comes. Jack rushes
into the police station and talks privately to Hope and Abe,
telling them what is going on. He tries several times to call
Jenn, but she doesn't answer and he fears that something has
happened to her. We see her again in th! e trunk as she comes to
with a panicked look on her face. Bo becomes very impatient and
mutters and moans about having to wait. He wants to rush the
place but Roman tries to talk him out of it. They see Maria drive
off as Bo wants to follow her, but another car pulls up. This
time it's Cassie's little friend, Chas. He goes in as Vin tells
him that he got a "code blue" from Palmer and it's time
to go to war (as he opens a drawer full of guns). Outside, Bo
can't wait any longer and tells Roman "I'm going in"
and jumps out of the car, freeze frame on Bo's face, fade to
black.
Preview:
On the phone, Chloe asks Brady how is life on the outside, he
says "lonely", Mimi tells Cassie and Belle that this is
an amazing opportunity, Belle asks where do I sign up? Jack says
he is going to Palmer's office and force him to tell him where
Jennifer is, as we see her tied up. Bo and Roman are under heavy
fire. As the credits roll.

Episode #9532
Tape date: Various
Director: Phil Sogard
Salem PD is on the move, as Bo & Roman's stakeout
escalates into a dangerous situation and an APB is out on Maria's
car as Jack & Hope use their own methods of searching, while
Brady reassures Chloe, Vic meets again with Tony. & the gal
trio impresses the Love Is Blind producer.
Echelon
Victor arrives, greets the gal at the bar, and tips her after
inquiring about Tony. He joins the Count at a table, and they
chat back and forth about Echelon. Vic asks what plans Tony has
for the place, but Tony gives his Cheshire cat smile, and is mum.
Brady comes in, and Tony leaves to give them some privacy. Brady
tells his grandfather he will take the job at Titan, on condition
there is nothing illegal about anything there. Vic assures him
all is on the up and up. Brady asks Vic to not broadcast the
news, until he tells his dad himself. Vic agrees.
Brady leaves, Tony rejoins Victor. They banter back & forth
about the club. Victor notes that Tony hired a new bouncer, and
complains that Tony had agreed to keep all the employees. Tony
retorts he owns all the place, and can change anything he wants,
including the pictures. Victor acknowledges this may be true, but
Tony should be very careful not to make any enemies at the Club
or he truly will regret it.
Salem Hospital
Brady knocks on the window to Chloe's room to get her attention,
and calls her on the phone. (Hmm, a phone right outside her door,
interesting) Chloe is weak, tired, but Brady gives her a nice pep
talk, and even has her imagining he is right there on the bed
next to her. He tells her of the job offer from Victor, talks
some more, and she dozes off. She wakes up, seeing he's gone and
calls his cell phone. She is not a happy camper when he answers
from the "gentlemen's club", and she complains about
him gawking at naked women. She tells him to go back to his lap
dance (rotfl!!) and hangs up.
He returns later (see above), calls her again, and explains about
accepting the job at Titan, assuring her she is more beautiful,
sickly as she is, than any of the girls at Echelon. He tells her
of a dream he had last nite, of buying a 10 million dollar house
for the two of them, then getting cold feet at the idea of the
mortgage. (Jeez, and wouldn't we all! Just imagine, 22 years old,
she is 18-19 and they talk of a $10 million dollar house, amazing.
LOL.) He says he may go into the music end of Titan, and even
start his own label, (My, my!) and have her record for him,
saying she would be the lst erotic opera singer. (egads!). He has
her smiling, and feeling better.
Hartley House
The female denizens are all lined up, as the producer passes out
flyers about the show. Cassie, Belle & Mimi line up, yakking
it up about the show. Does not take long before Cassie &
Belle are at it, tooth & nail, slamming each other right and
left. Mimi keeps interjecting comments (love that Meems, and like
her outfit, looks great) trying to get them to cool it, talk
sensibly and include her. LOL. Belle apologizes, but is right
back at it with Cassie, about parents, Chas, Shawn, you name it.
The producer (Ms. Ortiz) comes up, loving the sparring, and
claiming this is exactly what they are looking for, saying
something about the Jerry Springer type fighting. The Love is
Blind show is a dating game, the hot hunk is blindfolded, during
a date with each gal. (They must all be friends) and has to dump
two, without seeing them, on the basis of the date. She thinks
this trio would be perfect. Mimi moans at once about she knows
exactly WHO would! be the first dumpee!. (Nah, Meems, you got it
all over the other two, all you need is a bit of self confidence.!)
The Kidnapping
Jack & Hope find Jennifer's parked car, with Jen no where in
sight. Jack calls her on her cell, and they are shocked when it
rings close by. They find her purse, phone, and realize she is
gone. They call Abe, he puts out an APB on Maria's car, after
telling them that Bo & Roman spotted Maria going into the
drug house, but leaving after a few minutes. Jack decides to go
after Carson Palmer, figuring he knows where Maria has taken Jen,
but they wait for police to show up. Jack takes off for the D.A.'s
office, while Hope gets in her car, she calls Abe, who describes
Maria's car to her. Jack goes to Palmer's office, and finds him
shredding papers in the outer office. His phone rings, and he
scampers into a supply room to take the call. Abe asks what does
he have, Jack says he is getting close, and will call him later.
Jack then calls Palmer, pretending to be Judge Foster's clerk,
needing some files that have not been delivered yet. Carson!
promises to look, and goes into his office. Jack sneaks into
outer office to look thru the papers Palmer was shredding. He
likes what he sees, and gathers a few, when he hears Palmer
calling Judge Foster, and learning that the clerk had not called
him. Uh, oh.
Meanwhile, we see Maria walking around her car, slapping a huge
flashlight against her hand, and then Jen in the trunk of the
car, grunting and groaning, as she finally manages to loosen her
bonds and the gag. She tries different things to extricate
herself, finally getting into the back of the car, finding a cell
phone, and calling Jack. (he has turned off his cell, while
snooping thru the papers) She leaves a message, saying she is in
an alley, and is calling the police. (No idea where Maria is).
She then calls Hope, telling her she is in the alley, near an old
tire factory, & is calling the police, but Hope says she is
only a couple blocks away, and will be there in a few minutes.
Vin is packing up a huge duffel bag, as Chas says he doesn't
see anyone out there. Vin reminds him he got a code blue, and if
they are not there now, they will be. Chas doesn't like the idea
of shooting at anyone, but Vin says he had better. Outside, Bo is
getting antsy, as he sees Vin stash the duffel bag in his car,
realizing he is gonna take off. Roman holds him back, Bo calls
Abe who warns him to stay put til backup gets there. Bo sees Vin
packing up another bag, and ignoring Roman, leaps out of the car
to stop Vin. Gun fire erupts and there is lots of shooting going
on. Chas fires from inside the house, & Vin from outside.
Roman has joined Bo, and eventually we hear sirens. Via a
loudspeaker, we hear a voice announcing the house is surrounded
and come out with hands up. As Bo begins to leave his cover,
Roman takes a hit and goes down. Bo is besides himself, calling
Roman's name. Roman finally answers, barely able to talk, as he
says it w! as the wind knocked out, took a vest hit, but thinks
he may have a cracked rib or three. Cops are leading Chas from
the house, and he tells them to take care of Roman, as he jumps
up to go after Vin. Roman yells, Bo, not by yourself, Damn it!
Fade to black and the previews show.
Preview:
Cassie to Tony, I'm going on a television show, and you can't
stop me. Tony replies, Oh, yes I can Cassie asks Rex how he likes
her outfit (the shortest white shorts with wide belt I have ever
seen, black halter top and elbow length black gloves.. lol) and
he says she looks like a hoochie mama. (ROTFL). She asks if that
is bad. Hope is struggling with Vin, while Jen is doing the same
with Maria. They are in back of the car, with the trunk open, it
is very dark. I think it is Bo, who comes leaping onto Vin's
back, a shot rings out, and Jen gets an agonized look on her face.
And the credits roll.

Episode #9533
Tape date: 3/17/03
Director: Roger Inman
More action in the dark alley and the twins return home with
their own agendas (Tony's got his hands full!)
Home Sweet Home
Tony returns home and is happy to find both twins moving back in.
Rex accidentally tips one of his boxes and Tony questions if he's
setting up a laboratory in his bedroom. Rex shows Tony and Cassie
a centrifuge, both clueless as to what it's for and says he's
moving home to be with his family. He asks Tony for more money
for his research. Tony agrees, but asks what the research is for.
Not wanting to bore Tony, he promises to tell him when he's made
more progress. Cassie moves another box too roughly and Rex
jumps, not wanting it broken. Curious, Tony asks what it is. Rex
explains it's some lab glassware he borrowed (?) from the school
and didn't want it broken. Tony offers to supply whatever he
needs. Tony asks Cassie what's new with her and she tells him
about her new extra curricular activity. She was chosen to be a
contestant on a reality tv show and is sure she's going to win.
Tony tells her he can't let her be on a show like that. Her
bubble's bro! ken. She insists she's going to but he demands she
won't lose her dignity on one of those shows! Pulling the "I'm
old enough to if I want to" lines on him, he rebuffs saying
he can yank her $$ from her. His poor spoiled princess promises
to hate him forever if he stops her and heads off to help Rex.
Alone she vents at Rex for not supporting her with Tony. He's got
his own problems to think about and asks if she's still going to
do the show. She changes the subject to his special project and
he tells her to be quiet. The two bicker as she wants Rex's help
so she can be on the tv show. He tells her once she's on tv
she'll be famous and recognized everywhere and Tony will find out.
Excited about becoming a celebrity, Cassie squeals in excitement
figuring the world will love her. They can't believe how
different they are from each other. She heads up to try on
outfits as he talks into a microphone testing something. Cassie
walks in wearing the outfit Barb described yesterday th! at Rex
describes her as looking like a "hoochie mama" in, LOL.
She tak es off to try on another outfit as he records his plan to
break into the scientific community.
Blue Note
Kate has a drink while chatting with a bartender about telling
someone she loves him and not getting a response back. He asks to
turn up the radio behind the bar (LOL, heard her story too many
times before apparently) and an announcement about the drug bust
on Elm Avenue and a police officer being hit is aired. Kate's
worried it's Roman.
Dark Alley
Hope calls out for Jen in a darkened alley. Looking in the back
seat of one car, she sees Jen's coat with blood on it. Jen joins
her, explaining she just cut her arm and is okay. She gets her
coat and they hear Maria coming outside, so they duck behind some
tires. Maria and a man step outside. She opens the trunk to find
Jen missing and sees Jen's coat in the backseat and orders the
thug to find her. Hope and Jen make a noise where they're hiding
as the thug looks over. They decide to stand up and the thug
holds Hope with a gun to her head while Maria (holding a tire
iron) demands blondie lie on the ground. Jen asks what they're
going to do to them and Maria says kill them.
Carson Palmer's Office
Jack ducks as he hears Carson returning to his shredder. Jack
hides as Palmer shreds a few more papers (literally) until the
shredder gets jammed. Apparently that's a clue to stop as he goes
to his office and shuts the door. Jack lunges for the shredder
and rips off the papers not shredded and dashes into the hall.
Seconds later Palmer exits the office and Jack, remembering
something happened to Jennifer, grabs Palmer by the lapels and
asks what he did with Jennifer. Palmer denies knowing anything
and tells Jack to stay out of his face or he'll charge him with
harassment and make it stick. He stalks off and Jack listens to
his voice mail, Jen's message saying Maria kidnapped her and
where she is from yesterday.
Cop Shop
Roman single handedly walks in Chaz in his handcuffs. The other
cops all congratulate Roman while letting Chaz know their opinion
of him. Abe tells Roman that Bo's tailing the dealer. Abe and
Roman interrogate poor innocent Chaz who claims to just be a
college student. He was only over to that house the other night
for a party and just returned for his sweater (that he couldn't
remember what color it was). Roman gets irate as Abe watches. Abe
plays the nice cop as he asks Chaz to open up, but bad cop Roman
loses it demanding Chaz tell them the truth until Abe pulls him
off. They take Chaz down for booking.
Roman finds someone taped the word ROMANCE over Roman on his desk
nameplate. A couple plain clothed cops (why aren't they out they
backing up Bo?) tease him about Kate's I LOVE YOU over the police
radio. Roman says it was all a joke and his brother probably put
her up to it. Kate had just arrived in the hall outside the
detective's room and overheard him saying that. Roman gets called
somewhere and he leaves without seeing her.
Bo's talking on his microphone and chasing the dealer at the same
time (tsk tsk) who's driving like a maniac. Later Bo's still
trying to tail the dealer and gets on the mic asking where his
back up is (they're all at the cop shop booing at Chaz and eating
donuts I think). Bo returns to the station (lost the dealer) and
takes his turn at Chaz, who denies knowing anything. Abe comes
out and pulls Bo off, telling him to be cool and to remember
Palmer's watching them. Abe has Chaz taken to lock up. Bo figures
a couple of slaps would make Chaz talk, but Abe doesn't recommend
it. His cell rings and he hears the dealer's car was found
abandoned. He doesn't tell Bo where they found it.
Back In The Alley
Hope and Jen go into action as Hope kicks the guy while Jen
wrestles with Maria. The guy gets the gun back on Hope, but Jack
rushes up and jumps on the guy making him drop the gun when Hope
kicks him. She grabs the gun as Jack's holding the guy from
behind. Jen wrestles with Maria and Jack rushes over and the two
push Maria in the trunk and shut it. They rush to push the back
seat up so she can't escape the same way as Jen did just as Roman
and the officers he grabbed arrive. Jen and Jack, catching their
breath, ask if they should become deputies as Roman smiles and
congratulates the trio on a job well done. They tell Roman about
Jen's call to Jack and fortunately he got the message and showed
up just in time. Bo arrives (Roman called him) and Hope tells him
she's fine and the cop training helped. Jen never wants to be
kidnapped again (I still say they should implant tracking devices
in Jen, Hope and Marlena). Bo wants to talk with Maria, but Roman
tells Bo he will do that. Jen and Jack leave and Bo and Hope are
happy each is okay.
Back To The Blue Note
Kate returns (doesn't she ever go home?) to find Carson Palmer
and the Mayor drinking at a table. She asks the bartender how
long they've been there and he tells her 10-15 minutes (looks
more like they're drinking then talking, haha) as he pours her
another chardonnay. She lurks behind them and overhears Palmer
complaining about the cowboy Brady brothers making his job so
hard. The mayor gets a cell call and rushes off to another
appointment, telling Palmer to be vigilant. Kate asks Palmer what
the nice Mayor is doing with him. Palmer is sarcastic as he
berates the Brady brothers promising to clean up the mess they
leave. He tells Kate she could do better and leaves.
After returning from the alley with Maria and the thug, Roman
calls Kate on her cell. She tells him she's not interesting
talking now, maybe never.
Echelon Club
Ramsel arrives and is taken to a back room by the manager. Tony's
man (Barney) spots what's going on. Abe and a couple plainclothes
cops walk in and show their badges to a hostess, asking for the
manager. The manager wants a warrant before letting them look
around. Abe agrees, saying he'll go get one and have the two
officers take his patrons names and phone numbers so they can
follow up with them later. He's sure their wives would be
interested where they spend their time. This changes the
manager's mind and he lets them look around. Barney steps outside
and calls Tony with what's happening. He tells him that Victor K.
had some good hiding spaces built when he owned the club, so
figures the guy won't be found. Tony orders Barney to find out
who the guy is and to have him tailed when he leaves. Tony
beckons Bart to bring the car around as they're going out. They
arrive at the club. Tony goes inside (we don't see it) and
returns back to the car, tell! ing Bart to take him home. After
Tony left, Abe tells the manager what they were looking for and
leaves, not fooled by their faux innocence.
Drug House
Jack and Jen watch the taped off house as packages of drugs are
being carried out. Upset this is happening so close to their home
and daughter, Jen wants this stopped. Jack, realizing how close
he came to losing Jen that night, holds her close and agrees. She
wants to hang around until they can find out more. Jack
disagrees, saying he just wants to take her home and let the
babysitter go home. He wants to light a fire and sit with her,
some milk and cookies in front of it and appreciate what he has
right now. He promises to talk to Bo and Roman first thing in the
morning. Smiling, she agrees and they head home.
Back To That Alley
Bo asks Officer Santos to take his wife home. The officer agrees
after he's finished in a couple minutes. Bo takes his gun out and
reloads it in front of Hope as she pleads with him to not do this
alone. Saying he has to do it, he walks off leaving her standing
alone..as the previews for tomorrow roll.
Preview:
Mimi finds herself burrowing between Belle and Cassie as they
start the tv show Sami yells at Lucas for playing her all along.
He agrees. Brandon tells Sami she looks incredible,
Marlena asks John if the only reason he's doing this is to bring
down Tony. John's reply, "You're damn right it is" as
the credits roll.

Episode #9534
Tape date: 3/187/03
Director: Albert Alarr
Love is Blind's first show is taped, Marlena admits knowing about
John's ISA involvement, Rex continues work on his mystery device
Salem U Hospital
Lucas pulls Sami from her receptionist job to make copies of
material for his board meeting. She tries to refuse, but Brenda
has no problem covering for her as she's use to covering for
Sami's two hour coffee breaks (LOL). He wants 5 copies collated
before the meeting starts, 3 hole punched and in covers. Sami is
ticked as Brenda tells her the main copier has been having
problems and she'll have to check everything. Sami vents to
Brandon who subtly tells her his department is hoping to get a
chunk of money from the board today and to be nice to Lucas today.
She agrees, but Lucas was lurking and suggests she listen to
Brandon. Knowing it's her boyfriend who's running that department
he wants some cooperation from Sami. She won't kiss his butt, but
he tells her she might have to. Later Lucas is in the boardroom
and explains Mrs. Horton and Mickey Horton won't be able to
attend (uh oh). Sami arrives with the coffee tray and Lucas
offers coffee to t! he rest of the board and orders Sami to
deliver it. He warns her what might happen to Brandon's money if
she doesn't go along. Sami argues, but goes along and pours their
coffee (real mugs even, ooh la la) Not acting very chairman like,
he taunts her by asking for individual lumps of sugar and then
cream. He intentionally bumps her and makes her spill the cream,
then yells at her for it. As she bends over (giving everyone a
show with her low cut dress) she tries to control her anger. He
has her clean the table and asks for a muffin, saying she can
call it a day after getting it. She brings the muffins over and
leaves afterward.
One boardmember commends Lucas' email from the day before
allocating a lot of the money for the pediatric counseling
department. He explains his decision as Sami fumes from the
doorway. She stomps over and asks him if he's been playing her
all along, which is agrees to. Later we see her steamrolling
across the corridor as Brandon and Brenda watch confused. Lucas
admits enjoying watching her squirm as Sami promises retaliation!
She tells Brandon what Lucas did and Lucas shows Brandon how much
he allocated to his department. Brandon's excited about it, Lucas
walks off and Sami is about to combust from embarrassment (time
for a new job Ms. Sami, maybe John will hire you being Brady's
leaving?) Brandon walks off, not getting why delivering coffee
and making coffees was such a big deal.
Dr. Evans
Marlena greets her new patient, Mr. Smith (OPS). John arrives and
agrees to wait until Marlena's done with her new patient. He
spots the backpack on the chair in the waiting room (wouldn't
most people take it with them?) OPS lies on the couch, calling
her doc, complaining about not being able to sleep because of his
job. He figures being he's top dog at work and people at work (their
his dogs) make mistakes and blame them on him. He wants them to
do well so he can sleep. Marlena's not clear what he does for a
living and before he answers, John opens the door and says he
doesn't want to answer that. Marlena apologizes to her patient,
who calmly answers he's in the tech business as he and John
exchange looks. Marlena asks if they know each other. Connie
interrupts with an urgent phone call from one of Marlena's
patients and after her patient (OPS) confirms he'll be okay, she
excuses herself to take it. Ops explains Shane wanted him to find
out if Marlena ! is aware that John's ISA. Ops disagrees as John
tells him she doesn't, but Marlena walks back in (short call) and
tells him he's right, she knows everything. Ops doesn't think
this is good news and John explains he didn't want her involved.
She won't expose his operation, but asks if he's after Tony, not
happy to learn that's a fact. Alone with Marlena, he figures
Tony's taken over the family business and asks if that's going to
bother her that he's investigating the father of her children.
She tells him she'll deal with it if/when the time comes. Later
John talked to his ISA contact and assured him there won't be a
breach of security. He tells her he's only doing it to protect
her and their family. Asking for a kiss from her favorite spy and
makes light of the situation saying the safety of the free world
depends on it. She smiles a little and agrees to do it for her
country (LOL).
DiMansion
Shawn arrives to see Rex (Eliana's going to be kept busy with
teens in the house) and heads up the stairs to see him. Rex hides
a box under his bed before letting Shawn in. He's returning a
book Rex left in the dorm. Shawn admits he needed to talk with
someone about Belle. Sitting on the bed to kick the box further
under, Rex tells Shawn to not waste any time in getting back with
Belle and how she and Cassie are going to be contestants on that
new show, Love is Blind. Shawn rushes out and Rex opens the box
to find circuit boards galore in it. Eliana knocks offering
breakfast. He refuses but asks she announce any guests from now
on. She apologizes and agrees. He pulls out a cabinet and starts
working on it. Later we see him check out the digital counter on
the box (which only has a key and a toggle switch on it) and
carefully puts it in his backpack.
TV Studio aka Dot Com
The 3 female teens are getting dolled up as Ms. Ortiz gives them
the thumbs up to be outrageous. She also reminds them that looks
won't help as everyone will be blindfolded. Mimi continues to
referee between Belle and Cassie. (Belle doesn't seem too torn up
about breaking up with Shawn). Cassie reads the headlines about
Chaz being arrested and what went down. Miss Ortiz brings in
Randy the director. He's hoping their personalities are as
different as their outfits. (Belle is wearing a scooped neck
yellow dress, Mimi a blue jean jacket and long red skirt, Cassie
in short, short jeans (did I mention they're SHORT?) and a shaggy
20's style top. They're seated at a tall table at dotCom (uh oh,
Cassie's in the middle). As the director clues them in as to
what's going to happen (dotCom is closed for this show), Shawn
walks in. Belle forfeits if he's their mystery date. The director
orders him out, but Miss Ortiz figures Shawn would be good for re!
action shots, so they let him stay. He talks to Belle privately,
saying he doesn't want to date anyone else and he loves her. He
knows she's still mad at him, but doesn't want her involved with
this stupid show and getting hurt. Figuring he thinks she'll
lose, she takes the challenge and returns to the table as the
show is started. Gabby introduces the 3 as Mimi Lockhart who
wants someone who doesn't take himself too seriously, Cassie
DiMera who wants a guy not afraid to get down and dirty and Belle
Black who wants a guy to be her best friend. They walk in a
masked guy wearing a hat and scarf over his nose and mouth. The 3
girls all insist they're going to win.
Later we join them (not seeing the show) as the guy (with voice
disguised) gives all 3 contestants good critiques matching their
personality from what he gathered. The show's over and the 3 gals
are exhausted from their efforts. The 3 gals surround the mystery
hunk and get publicity shots as Shawn watches from behind. Gabby
explains the 1st gal that loses will be in their van outside
watching on a monitor and making comments during the next show.
The more brutal comments, the better. The photographer takes
photos of just the gals as Mimi has to fight for space between
Belle and Cassie. Gabby has the cameraman tape Belle and Cassie's
bickering (if we have to endure it, so should Salem, ha!) and
they're unaware of it being done. (I hope Mimi wins!) Shawn pulls
Belle out of the argument and she tells him to stay out of her
life. Cassie tells him breaking up with that dwarf idiot was the
best thing he ever did. He sits and remembers when Belle broke up
with him. Another girl ! (Jordan) shows up saying she was a stand
by in case one of the girls didn't show. She offers to buy him a
cup of coffee and he agrees. Belle and Mimi walk back in and
Belle watches Shawn get a cup of coffee with Jordan. She tells
Mimi she doesn't want to be famous, she just wants to be with
Shawn. She can't figure out why she keeps pushing him away.
Preview:
Kate and Tony are in the back of his limo as she stretches. Tony
asks if that wasn't a great way to relieve tension (???) and
suggests they do it again, Hope runs to Bo at the cop shop,
saying she knows where Ben Ramsel is.. Abe says the fireworks
haven't even started yet, Jennifer opens the door (shorter hair
style or just curly?) as the tv show crew walks in saying they're
burning daylight and Jack asks if they're going live today???
