her away, saying "You're not Reva!" The real Reva, standing at the door,
agrees.

SPAULDING MANSION: Phillip & Harley come home while Beth is getting
ready to pack fo rher trip with Ben. It's awkward for everyone. Phillip
says he's moving in with Harley.

Rob Layne. Dinah acts outraged at Cassie's "sick insinuations." Cassie
says she got the whole story from Rob. She thinks Hart doesn't remember
doing Dinah because he never did.

Dinah freaks out & says Cassie wants her to lose the baby. Hart thinks
that's absurd & asks Cassie to fill him in on her conversation with Rob.

SPAULDING MANSION: Phillip assures Beth that nothing will change with
respect to Lizzie. He thinks it's best for him to move out before she
returns from camp, so she won't feel like he's abandoing her. When she
comes home, they'll sit down & explain it to her together. Beth agrees
to this. She adds that she's going on a vacation to Hawaii.

BEN'S ROOM: Ben packs for his move and trip. The bellman says Hawaii is
very romantic. Ben wonders if ti's the best place for him & Beth given
the circumstances. He tells himself to forget Blake.

MARLER HOUSE: Blake sits by herself & recalls when Ben told her he was
leaving town. She tells herself it's for the best. Ross comes home &
tells Blake how the twins are ruling the roost at their play group. They
decide they're blessed. Ross says he hasn't felt this close to Blake in
a long time. Blake pledges her undying love to him.

Holly barges in & says she got a letter from her brother Ken. The
psychiatric hospital is getting ready to release him. He's been there
since he tried to shoot Ed many years ago. Ross offers to check on the
situation. He mentions that Ben is leaving town & then leaves the room
briefly. Blake says she couldn't be happier about Ben, but Holly's
worried because she knows this is a lie.

LEWIS HOUSE: Reva realizes she can't let Dolly out of her sight. Sean
makes light of the incident, comparing Dolly to a teen. Dolly is
offended & tells them both to go to hell, in true teen style.

DR. SEDWICK'S: dinah continues to feign outrage, but Hart wants to hear
Cassie's story. Dinah accuses him of trying to get out of dealing with
her & the baby. Cassie repeats her conversation with Rob & her opinion
that Dinah set it all up to trap Hart. Dinah tells Cassie to get Rob on
the phone, and Cassie is forced to admit that she can't because Rob is
on his way to Alaska & won't be reachable for a couple of months. Dinah
finds it all very convenient. Hart says they will settle it with a
paternity test, now.

MARLER HOUSE: Blake insists she's thrilled that Ben is leaving. Ross
comes back into the room, grabs his briefcase, and heads out to the
office, with Holly on his heels. Alone, Blake calls Ben. When he
answers, she hangs up.

SPAULDING MANSION: Beth says it's none of Phillip's business who she's
vacationing with. Phil leaves the room to make some business calls,
leaving Beth & Harley together.

Harley tries valiantly to make pleasant small talk about Hawaii, but
Beth sneaks in a dig & then leaves the room.

The phone rings & no one answers it, so Harley finally picks it up. Ben
says he's on his way to pick up Beth.

Beth returns & Harley passes on the message, along with a snide comment.
Beth says it's not what Harley thinks. Harley thinks Beth is a complete
hypocrite & wonders how Phillip will react.

Beth & Harley have quite the verbal sparring match. Harley claims not to
care about anything but Phillip & Lizzie, but she thinks Beth owes some
honesty to Phillip. Beth thinks Harley has no interest in Lizzie &
reminds Harley that she reneged on her promise to stay out of their
lives. They both accuse one another of caring only about themselves.
Harley reminds Beth that she broke up her own family. Beth warns Harley
to watch her back.

LEWIS HOUSE: Reva says Dolly acts just like a child. Dolly whines that
she's lost everything. Reva has no sympathy & orders Dolly to her room.
When she's gone, Reva wonders when Dolly will grow up. Sean & Reva
discuss the problem of Dolly. Sean says she's a pale imitation of Reva.
He finds it sad & pathetic. Dolly hears this through the door & vows to
"show" Sean.

DR. SEDWICK'S: Hart insists on the paternity test. Dinah yells and
denies & tosses accusations right & left to no avail. Dr. Sedwick comes
in to ask them to pipe down & vacate the room. Hart asks her about a
paternity test. She says it can be done in a few weeks with an amnio, if
Dinah chooses to have one. Hart asks if there's another way. Sedwick
says a CVS test would do it, but she doesn't recommend it given the
problems Dinah's had. Dinah plays martyr, saying she'll find a doctor to
do the test, since Hart doesn't really care about the baby anyway. She
stalks out as Dr. Sedwick calls after her that it's an unnecessary risk.

SPAULDING MANSION: Harley calls Beth a sore loser & a poor mother. Beth
throws Daisy in Harley's face. Phillip returns & both women act like
they've been caught being naughty. They tell him nothing's wrong. Beth
goes to pack & says she'll leave her number with Nettie.

Phillip tries to cheer Harley up. He's excited about moving in with her.
He kisses her & she tells him how happy she is.

Beth tries to call Ben, but gets no answer. She returns to the living
room to find Phillip & Harley kissing. She turns & leaves without them
seeing her.

ROSS'S OFFICE: Ross makes a call about Ken but gets no information. Then
he calls Ben's hotel & learns that Ben has checked out. Next he calls
Levy at the police department about a handgun that the department
mistakenly sent to him after a ballistics test. He promises to drop it
off at the station & puts it in his pocket.

MARLER HOUSE: Blake tries unsuccessfully to convince Holly that
everything's over with Ben & she's happy. Holly says she used to think
that way too, but she was always wrong. She says Blake can't put Ben in
her pst until she confronts her true feelings. Blake doesn't think
there's any comparison to Holly & Roger's relationship. She shoos Holly
out of the house & fights her urge to pick up the phone.

Ben shows up & says he has something to give Blake before he leaves.

DR. SEDWICK'S: Cassie says Dinah is bluffing. Hart remembers Dinah's
slip about when he passed out. He's now sure that he never slept with
Dinah and that the baby isn't his.

Outside, Dinah wonders how she'll get out of this paternity test mess.
She gets an idea & says she has nothing to lose.

LEWIS HOUSE: Sean says Dolly doesn't have Reva's "grit" & would never
have made it on the island. Sean misses the island & being there alone
with Reva. He loved listening to her talk & says Josh is very lucky.
Reva thinks things will work out for Sean.

In the other room, Dolly (now wearing her red wig) calls the police to
report that she knows where escaped convict Sean McCullough is hiding.

MARLER HOUSE: Ben shows Blake the pin he bought at the auction. He holds
it up to her face & says it's beautiful, but she puts it to shame. They
gaze into each other's eyes as the screen fades to black.
