Begin forwarded message:


Rachel, Carl, and Matt are thrilled to see the formerly dead Maggie. 

Cecile is less thrilled.  She keeps interrupting Maggie's conversations,
as if Maggie couldn't just scream out, MY MOTHER HAD ME KIDNAPPED!!!!
anytime she wanted to.  Cass and Frankie show up and want to talk to
Maggie.  She's too tired, pipes up Cecile.  No I'm not, bubbles Mags. 

Maggie says she was waiting for Cecile, who was late, when someone put a
bag over her head.  How could they have known where you were, Frankie
wonders.  They must have been stalking her, Cecile blurts.  Maggie says
the kidnapper drove her around for hours, bound her hands and threw her in
a dungeon-like place.  She says she wasn't well fed.  Frankie asks for
clues, did you hear anything, for example? Cecile says no -- way to give
yourself away, Cecile.  Maggie says she'll never forget how scared she
was.  Rachel says the kidnapper is a monster.  Maggie agrees -- the worst
kind.  Carl has someone looking for him now.  Oh, let the police do it,
Cecile pleads.  Why is no one catching on to her?  It is so obvious! 

Cecile takes a phone call from a man named Ari.  She covers, but it's
really the guy she owes money to.  She quietly explains that due to the
unfortunate fact that her daughter continues to breathe, she is no longer
an heiress.  She later tells Cass that she wants to give Maggie some of
her trustfund.  Cass says it can't be done until Maggie is 25.  But I
thought I was in charge now, she whines.  Not now that Maggie's alive,
Cass explains.  Don't worry, Mother.  I don't care about money, Maggie
chirps.  Paulina and Joe arrive so Joe can question Maggie.  Once again,
Cecile tries to interfere.  This is getting old. Frankie sends Cass to
question Cecile as Cecile tries to eavesdrop on Maggie and Joe.  Maggie
repeats her story, until Joe asks who the female voice screaming at the
lake was.  Maggie says it wasn't there.  Joe asks if there could have been
a female accomplice.  Maggie says that her captor did leave for hours and
come back smelling of perfume, and yes, she could recognize it again. 

Later, Maggie tells Rachel how she feels totally loved by her, for the
first time in her life.  She later threatens Cecile with the truth.

Josie meets Blair.  Blair needs an apartment.  Josie needs a roommate. 

Ooh, I know, they could room together.  What fun!  Josie declines to do a
credit check on her.  I'm a cop, you won't pull anything on me.  You're
right, Blair says.  The last thing I want is trouble with the cops.  Josie
asks Blair about her past.  Blair declines to answer because she had
trouble with a guy. Josie can relate.  Josie informs Blair that she won't
be doing the interview because her male superior boyfriend told her that
it was a bad idea.  Blair is transfixed by Josie's uniform.  You really
love your job, don't you, she asks.  Why yes I do, Josie replies.  Later,
when she's alone, she tries on Josie's police hat.  At the station, Josie
tells Gary she's got a roommate.  Female, he hopes.  He recognizes her
name as the woman from the paper who's never around when he is. I wonder
why. He hopes Josie can trust her.  Oh, I can, Josie assures him.

Matt runs into Gary, who asks him if there has been any response to his ad
looking for Jackie/Cobra/Blair.  I'll check with Blair when I get a
chance.  He says he still wants the reward for Maggie's kidnapper to be
offered.  Gabe has been asking Gary if he's heard from Cobra.  Gary
flashes back to giving Cobra some illegal money.  They flirt, and kiss for
the first time.  Gabe also talks to Grant, who tells him that he and Vicky
will be remarrying.  He wants Gabe to be his best man.  Gabe is flattered,
but confused.  Are you sure she really loves you.  Why of course she does,
Grant booms.  Why wouldn't she?  Um, in order to avoid Carpal-Tunnel
Syndrome, I will refrain from providing a full answer.

Vicky looks at her ring and swears that she wouldn't marry Grant in a
million years.  Jake intrudes.  Why did you let Grant give you that ring? 

She yells at him for spying on her.  She sticks to her story about wanting
Grant's permission to take Kirk to France to see Jamie.  Jake doesn't
believe her.  She says of course I'm not marrying him, he framed me and
then he -- .  What? Jake wants to know.  Kirkland cries, Vicky goes to
comfort him and Jake snoops.  He finds the truth serum Carl gave Vicky
that she has hidden very carefully right on the bar where her kids could
find it.  When Vicky comes back, he acts like he believes her and takes
his leave.  With the truth serum.  Vicky is relieved until she realizes
it's gone.  Vicky goes to see Carl and get some more.  He doesn't have any
more.  Carl thinks it might be too risky to try to trap Grant without it. 

Don't worry, says Vicky who then leaves.  Grant shows up at Vicky's. 

Despite her protests, he tells her kids about their engagement -- and I
thought he was going to try to be better this time.  Stephen is excited. 

When they're alone, he makes a move on her.  She pulls away.  He says he's
not trying to take Ryan's place.  Then what is he trying to do?  Vicky
stalls him by saying that she wants to marry him today!

Jake goes to the hospital and asks Lorna to tell him what's in the
bottle.  Gabe shows up and Lorna is cold to him.  All you care about is
the plug-pullings, she pouts.
