******Guiding Light Update for Monday, 6/27/94********

Today was rather boring in terms of moving the plot along, but it
was one of the funnier, more witty episodes they've had in a while!

Highlights:
-- Buzz remains stupidly loyal to Jenna
-- Alan-Michael and Jenna try to blackmail each other
-- Julie further complicates Bridget and Dylan's lives, but Lucy is 
    on to her
-- Ross reluctantly agrees to help Frank deceive Eleni
-- Ross declares he never inhaled!
-- Nick yells at Alex, then tries to get on her good side

Spaulding Mansion:  

Alex offers Buzz $5,000 cash to spy on Jenna and Alan-Michael. 
Buzz refuses.  Alexandra offers the white Excalibur, which has been
appraised at over $200,000.  Buzz agrees, but says it will take
time for him to find out anything.  Enter Nick, back from his
mystery trip.  Buzz leaves.  Nick wants to know what's going on
with Mindy being in Milan.  Outside, Buzz rejoices on the porch.

Yacht:  A-M and Jenna are having a fancy dinner.  Jenna shows A-M
the letter she found from Frank to Eleni.  A-M tries to take it
from her, saying he is going to five it back.  Jenna half-heartedly
threatens to give it to Frank, but A-M blocks her from leaving.

Frank and Eleni's:  Blake and Frank frantically try to take the
label off the bottle of "deworming" pills that the "doctor" gave
him for his leg, when Eleni walks downstairs.  Eleni is looking for
David, because she has to leave.  Blake offers to watch Frank and
Marina.  Eleni declines and asks Frank to take some of the
"medicine" that the Dr. gave him.  Frank pretends to not be able to
find them as Ross enters.  Frank tells Eleni he doesn't want to
take the pills because he wants to be alert for his meeting with
his divorce lawyer.

Boarding House:  Julie thanks Dylan for getting her some burn
ointment.  Dylan sees the telegram in the drawer as he does this,
and slams it shut, looking upset.  Enter Bridget.  She apologizes
for not being able to go to the concert tonight.  Dylan offers to
do something else and they can make it an early night.  He wants to
know if she's still interested.

F & E's house:  Ross shows up.  Eleni reads out loud from a
pamphlet from the "doctor" on post-op care. (It is really a
pamphlet for pet-owners, but Eleni doesn't seem to get this... Its
a pretty amusing scene.)  Eleni agrees to go do her catering job,
but she wants Blake to go, too, since Frank need to meet with Ross
privately.  Blake says she'll call a cab, and Eleni leaves.  Ross
wants to know what is going on.  Frank walks around, startling
Ross.  Frank's leg really itches, and he tries to scratch inside
the cast with Ross' pen.  Blake fills Ross in about Frank's
"broken" leg and how she got Morgan Fairclaw's vet to be his
doctor.  Ross says that he wants nothing to do with the divorce or
anything else. 

Yacht:  A-M admits taking the letter.  Jenna says she understands
him wanting to be with Eleni, but she doesn't like it when it comes
at her expense, like the bungled trip to Florida.  A-M and Jenna
begin to argue about blackmailing each other.  (There is no legal,
signed agreement about the company yet, so Jenna feels A-M is free
to do whatever he wishes at her expense.)  A-M tries to fire Jenna. 
Jenna gives A-M advice about Eleni and tells him that sometimes
love can be unrequited.  A-M says he won't be blackmailed and
storms off.  Jenna says she'll be waiting for him.

F & E's:  Ross gives Frank some legal advice:  Be honest with
Eleni.  Ross wants his pen back, but Frank has lost it down his
cast (:-)).  Frank struggles in the background, trying to get the
pen to fall out of his cast, while Blake tries to get Ross to
pretend to be Frank's lawyer so he can get Eleni back.  Ross tries
to be moral and say he won't do this under false pretenses.  Frank
tells Ross about A-M's manipulations, and how they led him to fake
the broken leg in order to keep Eleni.  Frank asks what Ross would
do if A-M was with his wife.  Blake and Ross exchange looks, and
Ross agrees to take Frank's case.  However, he'll charge the cost
of a new pen to Frank's bill (:-)).

Boarding House:  Bridget, Dylan and Julie are in the kitchen. 
Bridget starts to tell Dylan about being at her Uncle's, but
notices Julie hanging around.  B accuses  J of eavesdropping.  At
Dylan and B's urging, J leaves.  Bridget lies, and tells Dylan that
she promised Ed that she'd stay with Michelle this evening.  Julie
eavesdrops outside while Dylan says he'll go with her.  Bridget
says no, she and Michelle need some private time.  Dylan gets
disgusted (he knows she's lying, but she doesn't know he knows. 
How's that for a sentence, huh?).  Dylan leaves, and Julie looks
evilly pleased.

Yacht:  Jenna asks what time it is and Buzz, who has teleported to
the Yacht, answers.  He sees the fancy dinner set up.  Jenna tells
the waiter that Mr. Cooper is staying for dinner.  Buzz gives Jenna
a big kiss.  He tells her that things went right for him today.  J
wants to know what happened.  Buzz sings "I'm a free man!" to the
tune of James Brown's "Soul Man."  He tells Jenna he can pay off
his debts and still have $55,000 left over.  He suggests that Jenna
put on the ring he gave her.  Jenna wants to know where it is
coming from.  He tells her about Alexandra wanting to know about
her and A-M.  He says he'll tell her that all they're doing is
"peddling lotion together" and collect the cash.  Jenna tells him
no, he can't.

Spaulding mansion:  Nick grills Alexandra about Mindy and what
happened between them.  Alex turns it around on him and chastises
him for leaving town all of a sudden and just leaving a note.  Nick
angrily tells her he was trying to find out "Who was trying to take
you down.  And your company along with you!"

Diner:  Eleni and Stavros are in the Diner, the closed sign is on
the door.  A-M shows up, wanting to talk to her.  Stavros acts
disgusted and tells her not to take long, he wants to close up.  A-
M says he wants to cut Jenna out of the business deal, and asks if
Eleni has a problem with that.  Eleni says that Jenna's face and
name are on every bottle of lotion they've sent out and that Jenna
works hard, which is good, since Eleni and A-M don't have a lot of
free time.  (Yeah, A-M is too busy trying to manipulate Eleni to
have time to do any REAL work...)  Eleni wants to know what
happened with Jenna.  A-M says that Jenna accused him of
deliberately trying to be alone with Eleni in Florida.  Eleni says
that Jenna said the same thing to her.  Eleni says she was offended
and that she gets upset when people think she is so stupid and can
be easily manipulated.  A-M, who is back to his slimy old ways,
actually looks a little guilty.

F & E's:  David and Frank extract Ross' pen from Frank's cast.  On
the porch, Dylan shows up to talk to David about Bridget.  Dylan
wants to know if David thinks Bridget would pick Dylan or Hart if
Hart came back wanting something.  David says she would pick Dylan,
of course.  Dylan is upset, and says he can't spend his life
falling in love with women who think he's the greatest thing as
long as they can't have Hart Jessup.  David wants to know why he's
sure about Bridget, but Dylan isn't.  Dylan tells David that
Bridget called off making love with him for the first time to be
with Hart.

Boarding House:  Julie comes back in, with a deviously pleased look
on her face when no one is in the kitchen.  She heads for the
drawer in the cupboard that contains the telegram, as Bridget comes
down looking for Dylan.  Bridget guesses that Julie bombed on her
job interview (what kind of job interview do you have at night?  It
is clearly dark outside, and the diner is closed...), but J says
the salary wasn't up to her expectations.  Bridget tells Julie that
she is out of the boarding house once the July rent that Mallet
sent runs out.  Julie says that Bridget can't do that because it is
discrimination and she'll file suit.  Bridget says Julie might have
a case since she is a minority -- one of only a few people that
nobody likes! (ROTFL).  Julie goes into the stairwell and sits. 
Lucy comes into the kitchen to get the laundry key.  Bridget tells
Lucy that Dylan is angry with her because she did something stupid. 
Lucy says she's used to people being angry with her, but she's
getting better about not saying the first thing that pops into her
head.  Bridget says she, too, doesn't tell people everything, but
that is why Dylan is mad at her.  Bridget leaves.  As she goes
upstairs, she tells Julie that she could hear a lot better if she
got a stethoscope (;-)).  Julie goes into the kitchen and looks for
the telegram in the kitchen drawer.  Lucy catches her.

Ross and Blake's house:  Ross and Blake return home, and Ross sees
a box of old clothes that Blake says she's donating to the poor. 
Ross protests that it is half his wardrobe!  He finally agrees to
give the stuff away, and Blake tells him that she also gave the
veterinarian one of his old jackets for playing Frank's doctor. 
Ross is upset when he finds out it was his "Buffalo Springfield"
jacket.  He tells her it was his "youth" and reminisces about the
60's.  He asks her is she knows how much it was worth.  Blake says,
yeah, she checked the pockets and it was a good thing the cops
didn't look there when they searched the house.  Ross says he never
inhaled (:-D).  Blake says she loves "every little and every BIG
thing" about Ross and says he is a remarkable man.  Ross: "Whom you
have reduced to a slave to sex!"  They start to make out on the
couch.

Diner:  Eleni and A-M discuss Jenna some more.  A-M plays on E's
sympathies some about his feelings for her.  Eleni says that if
Frank had just said the right things, then things would be
different.  A-M is uncomfortable, and tells Eleni that people can
say the right things, but they're not always the truth.  Eleni says
she's not waiting around for Frank to say the magic words, but if
he said the right things, he would mean them.  A-M leaves.

Yacht:  Jenna explains the legal complications about the business
she is in with A-M to Buzz, trying to convince him why he can't
tell Alexandra.  Buzz gets upset that Jenna isn't willing to give
up her business to get him free.  They argue.  Jenna says she will
do what she must for some security for herself because she can't
depend on Buzz.  Buzz is hurt, and angry.  He says he could blab
everything, take the money and go, but he won't.  As he leaves, he
says he wants to know when it will be his turn to be selfish. 
Jenna looks pleased.  

Boarding House:  Julie pretends she's getting gauze for her finger
from the drawer.  Lucy doesn't believe her, so she checks it out. 
She finds nothing of interest in the drawer.  Bridget comes in,
babbling about Dylan and his car.  She walks out.  Lucy asks Julie
where Bridget is going.  Lucy knows Julie is up to something.  Lucy
threatens Julie that she'll bounce her back to Brooklyn if she
finds out Julie is messing with Bridget and Dylan.

Cooper porch:  David defends Bridget and the telegram.  Dylan says
she should have told him about it.  Eleni shows up, and David talks
loudly to warn Frank, who is inside, so he can scramble into bed. 
Eleni enters the house and talks to Frank.  She seems concerned
about him, and he thanks her for being kind and patient with him.

Ross and Blake's, post-boink:  They discuss that being a slave to
sex isn't bad, everyone is one naturally.  Blake plugs Ross working
for Frank to help him keep Eleni.

Spaulding:  Nick show Alex the mysterious letter that caused him to
go off on his trip.  The order for the letter and mailings came
from some Hong Kong company, but Nick thinks it must have
originally come from the inside.  They speculate it is either
someone currently on the inside or someone who used to be.  Nick
suggests Roger.  Alex suggests Jenna or A-M.  Alex is suspicious
that A-M has been idle for months, and now he's having an affair
with Jenna.  Nick suggests putting a tail on A-M.  Nick says he
isn't going to go public with the story, much to Alex's surprise. 
She is impressed.  Nick goes to unpack.  Buzz shows up at the door
to get his money.

Yacht:  A-M tells Jenna that she's still in, but as soon as he
finds a way, she's out.  She says she's not going to give up
without a fight.  

Spaulding Mansion:  Buzz tells Alexandra that A-M and Jenna are
having an X-rated affair, chasing each other around the yacht
naked, like "weasels in heat." (:-D).  Alex wants proof.  Buzz says
Jenna told him. Alex says its not good enough.  Buzz demands $5,000
for his pain and suffering.  Alex gives him the check.

Jessup Farm:  Bridget is waiting for Hart.  She calls out "Hart?,"
when she hears a noise, but we see that it is really Dylan, hiding
behind some bushes...

That's it!
