Jack's Office:

Jack and Ashley work on Jabot business then discuss Traci who's planning on taking Colleen to Crimson Lights to meet her crush Raul. Ash senses again that Jack knows what's bothering Traci and won't talk. Ashley would like to reach out to her sister and needs to know what's wrong. Before Jack can say more Phyllis interrupts. She asks about the family dinner and regrets not being able to be there. He can see how important being a part of it is to her. She laughs at her turning into one of those women longing for her boyfriend's family's approval. Phyllis wonders how Traci feels about her since they were both married to Danny. She worries that Ashley might turn her sister against her but Jack assures that won't happen. They will all come to like her. She wants to have dinner with Traci that night but Jack doesn't like that idea. Phyllis thinks she knows why. Traci is going through something. Jack admits it's true but swears her to secrecy. He fills her on Steve and the state of the marriage.

Crimson Lights:

Traci takes Colleen to the coffee shop but she just wants to go back to New York. Traci spots Raul who surprises Colleen by pulling out her chair for her and introduces himself. She's blown away meeting a 'celebrity'. Raul's heard lots about her from Billy and asks for some dish on his friend from his NY days. Traci takes a commemorative picture of them. She asks if he's feeling better after his Diabetes scare. She tells him how a friend of hers saw what he went through, related to it and got checked out by a doctor who discovered that she does have Diabetes. Thanks to him her friend is going to be okay. He's touched by the comment. Ash spots Colleen and Raul and asks Traci if wanting Colleen to stay is just about Brad or does it have to do with her marriage to Steve. Traci refuses to talk about it. Jack didn't tell Ashley anything but she can tells that something's wrong and even guesses that it's an affair. She tells Traci that she needs their support and that she doesn't have to go through it alone. Ash gets her to open up about the details but Traci is too furious to talk with him about it. Colleen will be devastated by the betrayal.

Nikki finds Victoria and asks for Nick or Sharon. She's wondering about Nick's decision to hold off on the expansion. She wonders if Victor and Nick convinced Sharon to go along with Nick's plan to stay close to home. Victoria's words remind Nikki of the rift between Victor and Nikki over the Larry situation. Victoria promises to keep her mother updated on Nick and Sharon.

He alter calls his Parole Officer and can't believe what he did. The PO tells him to apologize to both Brad and Nikki and to have faith that it will work out. Nikki can't believe Larry would do that but Brad defends him saying hat everyone makes mistakes. He wonders if she's having second thoughts about helping him since it burned the bridge with Victor. She's not sure that if it weren't for Larry she and Victor would be fine. Something always comes between them but she obviously wants to reconcile with him. Larry overhears them talking about her making it up to Vic by rescinding his job.

Hospital:

Olivia wants answers from Raul's doctor, Roland Kimbrough. She knows something's fishy going on now with all the tests he's now running. Is he overcompensating or is he angry against Lawson medical. Tell her what's really going on she asks. He admits that Lawson has caused him to lose his way. He's in too deep. It's to too late she tells him. He can undo the damage. He tells her about how Lawson lured him in. He was young and in debt and they offered him a solution to all his problems.

Newman Enterprises:

Neil reminds Alex that despite her icy relationship with Olivia, she can still be good resource for the case against Lawson. She can use her connections to get insider info about the shady company. Alex doubts they could even find a doctor willing to expose themselves by revealing Lawson's dirty deeds. Later Olivia stops by. She has something important to tell both of them. She got Dr. Kimbrough to open up and gives the details that Lawson gives financial incentives not perform certain tests and how they get around loopholes. Olivia's not sure Roland will testify for them. Alex is determined to get him to help somehow. They realize they must proceed carefully. Olivia suggests a plan.

Wednesday, June 27, 2001

Larry Warton ran into Victor at the coffeehouse and they didn't get along very well, of course. Larry was still upset about what he heard Nikki talking about and made no bones about it that he didn't appreciate being used and thrown away. He went back to work and Nikki called him in. After cutting through his attitude, they came to an understanding that he did have a chance for a future -- she even admitted to him that he reminded her of herself several months earlier when she wasn't very sure of herself. She encouraged him to fight back -- he would always be a loser if he acted like one. He left after apologizing but not knowing for sure if she was going to fire him. She had a lot to think about. . .

Victor and Victoria went back to Newman Enterprises to talk about his plans for her future. She wanted to talk about how they have finally gotten rid of Larry Warton and how things could be better in their family. He passed that topic right by and asked her about working on special projects with her brother. She was happy to give it a try. They parted soon thereafter.

Isabella and Paul had dinner at Mary's house. Paul seemed to be feeling better at the end of the evening, even after filling up on spareribs and enduring the torture of "Baby Pictures." The couple returned to Paul's apartment and, just when he was about to thank her for cheering him up, Lynn walked in the door. Isabella went to bed and Paul offered Lynn a nightcap. She refused and, when he told her that he was sorry that she couldn't make it to dinner, she asked him if he was serious about that. . . .

Traci told Colleen about the troubles she was having with Steve and, before she could tell the specifics, Colleen asked if he was having an affair. She didn't believe it at first and yelled that her mom was lying to her. Jack came in the door and offered some kind words. Colleen felt so sad for her mother, but when talk of not going back to New York arose, she couldn't imagine leaving her home. She ran off to be alone, leaving Jack to comfort his sister.

Meanwhile, Brad and Ashley were having a heated discussion about whether or not he should go over to the Abbott's and try to be there for Colleen, possibly even tell her about the affair. Ashley fought him at every turn, telling him that Traci should handle it her own way and they may feel that he's trying to take advantage of the situation if he did anything. Finally he realized that her protests could be coming from somewhere else -- he asked her if she didn't want him to go over there because she didn't want him to get close to Colleen. . . .

Billy and Mac shared ice cream in their secret place, then called Raul and Rianna to tell them about plans for the website. When the call came, Brittany had just walked in to the coffeehouse -- they ran off without giving her a second look. Brittany felt dejected, then saw J.T. and tried to talk him into working on the website. She saw it as a way to get Mac back from Billy and promised an interesting summer. He wasn't biting on that quite yet.

Raul and Rianna weren't happy to hear that Brittany was joining them, but were thrilled to hear that Mac was. The kids visited their teen years talking about baseball and dolls. After those two left, Billy told Mac that he was glad that she opened up to him and that if she gets scared again, don't hesitate to tell him.

Neil's Office:

Alex tells Neil she had the best sleep of her life what with their new game plan against Lawson Medical. Neil is hesitant to get Olivia to go uncover at the HMO.

Alex decides to try getting Dr. Kimbrough to talk again. Later Olivia stops by with coffee and muffins and tells Neil about her suspicions about Lawson's connection to Raul's misdiagnosis. He tells her they might not need her help but she insists she wants to help not only for the case but to mend fences with him as well. He doesn't want her to feel obligated and tells her that Alex is speaking with Kimbrough right then. Olivia is sure Alex doesn't want her involved and that's why he's trying to get her out of it.

She even has gifts for them to kick off their summer; a bathing suit for Rianna from Fenmore's and sunglasses for Raul. She even has stuff for Billy and Mackenzie. She realizes she can't buy their friendship but hopes they can start to mend things. They politely thank her. Britt wonders why Mac used to be so afraid of bring on camera.

Williams' Apt:

Paul tells Isabella that he found out her note from James is definitely from him. Fingerprints and typewriter type confirm it. He didn't confront him about it but feels the case is close to wrapping up. He's sure that if James can get busted for money laundering while in prison he'd have no use for Isabella anymore. He has the perfect ace up his sleeve: Isabella. He wants her to go through all of James' papers and personal items in hopes of finding a vital clue. She agrees to give it a try. He explains that he wants to wrap up the case as he cares about her and can't cross that line while she's still a client.

That makes her nervous. John Silva stops by with news for her. Amanda is nowhere to be found. They tried to contact her but failed. There's no need to keep trying to contact her as they have published an announcement and doubts her mother will ever see it. They decide to celebrate. She tells Billy she's not ready to tell Kay about her stepfather yet. Mac can't think of anyone who would tell Amanda where Mac is.

Outside Crimson Lights, Brittany contacts the homeless shelter Mac used to live at and asks if she can volunteer. Her 'friend' Mac told her all about the shelter.
