The regular Monday updater, Karen, is away from her tv and asked me to 
substitute for her.  So here goes

Quick recap of last Friday for those of you who never found GL
for all the OJTV.  When last seen

Buzz and Nadine had flown on the Spaulding jet (courtesy of Lucy)
to see the Northern Lights (Buzz's dream) and then were going to 
try out for the TV game show "Soul Mates" (Nadine's dream).  Jenna
had burst in on Henry all upset and then said it was nothing.
Van was looking at a bottle of Henry's prescription sleeping pills.
Eleni and Frank had admitted they loved each other and made love.
After Frank went to sleep, Eleni looked at the card for a vet that
AM had left with her.  The vet was Frank's doctor.  AM and Tangie
were trapped on the Spaulding yacht after Lucy set it adrift.

Now, we pick up with Monday's story.

Buzz and Nadine

Buzz and Nadine are at the selection auditions being held in 
Springfield for Soul Mates.  The contestants are being judged
on Jumping for Joy.  Buzz isn't jumping for nothing.  Buzz and
Nadine are eliminated from the audition.  Nadine reams Buzz out.
She says he's selfish and inconsiderate.  She says, he agreed 
to really try out for Soul Mates and he didn't.  Buzz says, all
he agreed to do was show up, and he showed up.  Nadine says that
she went to see the Northern Lights, and while they were beautiful
she went because it was something Buzz wanted.  Buzz agrees to
really try to get onto the show.  They try to talk the show
reps into letting them back into the auditions.  They aren't
getting anywhere until Gilly shows up and talks the show reps
into it.  When asked how long they've been married (only married
couples are accepted onto the show) Nadine and Buzz say they 
got married in high school.  The show rep says that they are cute,
fun, etc., but Buzz failed jumping for joy.  Buzz says he didn't
know his motivation, was he jumping because he won a fur, a car,
a vacation, what.  When told that the winners of the show win money
(I forget how much) Buzz does a wonderful jumping for joy -- actually
it looked more like throwing a fit, but the show's people are 
impressed.  Buzz and Nadine are selected to be on the show.

Jenna

Jenna is in the park with a shopping bag.  She pulls out a home
pregnancy test and looks sad.  She puts it back in the bag and
starts to walk away, but runs into Van (literally).  Jenna drops
the bag and the home pregnancy test falls out.  Van picks it up
and says Jenna must think she's pregnant.  She asks if that is 
why Jenna came to see Henry.  Jenna says yes, but she won't bother
Henry.  Van tells Jenna if she needs help and Henry isn't in town
she (Van) will help.  (I forgot, Van and Jenna made up last week
for those of you who missed it.)  Jenna thanks Van and returns to 
here room.  She dials the diner but hangs up when Kat answers.
She stares at the pregnancy test.  Later, she picks up the phone
and says something about not wanting anything from you.  The tv
news announcer says two Springfield couples have won places on
Soul Mates, some other people and Mr. and Mrs. Cooper.  Jenna 
looks at Buzz and Nadine on the screen and begins to cry.

Kat and David

Kat and David are at Frank and Eleni's house.  David wakes up Frank,
Frank thinks David is Eleni and starts to kiss him, but David stops
him.  Frank tells David everything is all better with him and Eleni,
but he wishes there were some way to get out of this broken leg
business.  David comes up with the idea of a "miracle" cure.  Eleni
returns to hear Frank as for his crutches back, but David won't 
give them back, so Frank walks across the room and there's no pain --
it's a miracle.  David and Kat leave.  They can't believe Eleni fell
for that.  David and Kat go to the diner, where Gilly gives Kat a
leather passport cover as a bon voyage gift.  (Kat is going to Europe
with her mother.)  David and Kat go on about how they will miss each
other, and don't have any fun with out each other.  Stavros gives 
Kat something to eat on the plane, because of friend of his died from
eating airline food.  Kat takes a phone call (from Jenna) and says how
she hates it when wrong numbers just hang up instead of saying sorry 
they got a wrong number (me too). They leave to go to Kat's going 
away party.

Frank and Eleni

After David and Kat leave, Frank starts telling Eleni how much last
night meant to him, and how since his leg is much better he could
probably walk upstairs with her help and they could spend the night
in their own bed.  Eleni says she'd like that but she doesn't want
Frank to overdo.  Then Eleni brings in Frank's doctor (the vet) and 
says she went to see the doctor and the leg should be immobilized.
So they (Eleni and the doctor) start putting sandbags around Frank's
leg , then Eleni says what if Frank moves the other leg and pulls
on his bad one, so they put sandbags around that one.  Then Eleni 
decides that's fine for back and forth but what about up and down,
they put more sandbags on the top of Frank's legs.  But wait, what
about the pelvic area, you guessed it more sandbags.  All this time
Frank keeps saying he's fine, he doesn't need this, and grabbing the
doctor and whispering "tell her I'm fine".  Great scene.  Anyway
at the end of show, there's Frank in his hospital bed all covered
with sand bags, looking confused and lost.  (He should have told
Eleni the truth when he had the chance.)

That's all for Monday's show.  Your friendly substitute updater
