Tess arrives at Jacobs.  She can+t buy the building but Sydney Chase
will rent it to her except for the top floor.  Tess is going to sublet
some floors of lofts for income, put the modeling agency on one,
rent some for commercial space, and open a nightclub (tentatively
called Jacob+s Ladder) for Jacob to run.  He tells her that he won+t
leave Corinth.  She tells him that the sex must have been great.
He asks why she says that - she tells him the last time she saw that
look of satisfaction on a man+s face, he was a corpse.  Tess assumes
it+s Lorraine, and Jacob lets her believe it but tells her to keep her
big blonde mouth shut.

Jeremy is trying to get out of the butler+s pantry.  He climbs out a
window and escapes.  He calls the police on his cell phone, and is
told that Alex is on his way to Jeremy+s studio.  Back at the studio,
J can+t believe he was so blind.  He calls the police again, and asks
that Alex be paged.  He writes something down in a notebook, tears
the page out, folds it and walks around a bit with it in his hand.  He
stops next to a scaffold, the camera pans up to the bucket labeled
Caustic, and we see a gloved hand grab the edge of the bucket.  Jer
hears a noise, turns and says Alex?, the clicking starts, he looks up
to see the caustic stuff come pouring down over him.

Tony and Alex realize that since Neal is Gwyn+s dad, he has a
connection to the Aldens.  They look for Gwyn but she has left the
station, probably to go to Jeremy+s.  Tony points out that if Gwyn is
with Jer, she+d be safe, but Alex wants to check anyway.  Then it
occurs to Al that Neal would go to Kate+s.  He tries to get her on the
phone and can+t so he decides to go check it out.

Angie and Charles are talking.  She+s trying to stop him to go take a
shower but he goes on and on about their marriage based on complete
trust and how much he loves her.  She is getting very uncomfortable.
He tells her he still has strong feelings for Lorri, but they are nothing
compared to what he feels for her.  So he+s going to stay away from
Lorraine, to avoid temptation.  The phone rings, and it+s Jacob telling
Angie that she left her earrings.  After she hangs up, she tells Charles
"You+ve had your say, now it+s my turn."

Neal is waiting for Kate when she gets home.  He tells her about being
Gwyn+s dad.  Gwyn+s mom was pregnant and he didn+t want to get
married.  She went to the minister for counseling and they ended up
getting married.  He agreed to keep quiet about being the biological
father and she would send him updates on Gwyn.  That+s where he got
the picture of Curtis and Trisha.  Kate asks him why he is back now.
He tells her that while in jail, he had time to think - Gwyn+s parents
were dead, his wife was dead and he felt all alone, so he came back to
Corinth.  They hear police sirens and she ushers him out the back door.
Alex and Tony come in and warn her that Neal is dangerous.  Alex
gets paged, tries to call Jeremy, doesn+t get an answer so they leave.

Gwyn is outside Jeremy+s studio window, she turns around, says "Trisha"
and we see the back of Trisha+s head.  The camera pans and we see a face!
It+s finally Noelle Beck, who just looks at Gwyn.  Then we see Jeremy in
the studio, covered with plaster - looking like a sculpture.  (So much for
a gentle death!  This must have been a bad way to go!!)
