Let the show begin...

JESSUP FARM:  Roger is lurking outside of Dirt's bedroom where Hart and Dinah 
are making out.  Dinah comes up for air and sees Roger.

LOWHAD:  As he looks at Annie's pill bottles, Josh remembers Rick telling him 
about Annie writing prescriptions off of his pad.  With tears in his eyes, 
Josh says "It's true."

CEDAR'S ER EXAMROOM:  Annie is denying Rick's accusations.  Lilian and Rick 
say they can settle this privately, they will not bring this up before the 
board.  Annie lashes out instead of giving in.  Rick tells Annie that he is 
only trying to help her because he loves her.  Taking Rick's words out of 
context, Annie turns it all around on Rick.  They are interrupted by Ross' 
call for help.....Blake is in labor.

BEVA'S PLACE:  Reva tells Buzz that she is leaving and he shouldn't try to 
stop her, but he does.

**Roll Lighthouse**

Reva says she's a screw up and if she leaves Buzz now Alan will leave 
everyone alone.  Buzz tells Reva that she's clueless.

LOWHAD:  Josh sits in silence staring at Annie's pill bottles.  The silence 
is broken by Matt's knock on the door.  Matt is there to look at blueprints 
for a bridge project they are working on.  Josh and Matt make light of their 
injuries then sit down to work. Josh is obviously rattled, and Matt wants to 
know what's up.  Josh is afraid of what he has done to Annie.

CEDARS:  Annie tries to take care of Blake.  Rick dismisses Annie in front of 
Blake, Ross and Lilian.  Annie leaves and Bloss do not understand Rick's 
actions.

FARM:  Roger innocently claims he did not mean to startle Dinah and Hart then 
presents them with divorce papers.  Dinah checks it out and wants to know 
where the catch is.  Roger is giving Dinah everything, the penthouse, WSPR, 
everything.

CEDARS:  Ross is nervous waiting for Blake who is in the exam room.  Rick and 
Ross quibble about Rick's dismissal of Annie then rick tries to comfort ross' 
worries about the babies coming early.  Blake and Dr. Sedwick come out with 
the news that Blake is only having false labor pains.  Ross thanks the good 
doctor because Blake and the boys mean the world to him.  Bloss hug then 
blake goes off to the restroom and Ross gives a sigh of relief.

DINER:  Buzz kicks Eleni and Marina out of the diner then tells Reva that 
he's going to blow up the place.

**Half-time**

Reva cannot believe it and tries to rationalize with Buzz as he sets up the 
explosives.  Buzz tells Reva that he is doing this to prove to Reva that 
nothing is more important to him than she is.

LOWHAD:  Josh gives Matt the lowdown on Annie's addiction.  Matt doesn't 
think Josh should assume the worst.  Josh knows that it is all his fault, and 
Matt was right when he told Josh that he would not be able to stop loving 
Reva just by putting a ring on Annie's finger.  Matt's advice to Josh is not 
to drive himself crazy wondering why...Matt knows all about that.  Josh still 
thinks he failed Annie miserably because he cannot stop loving Reva and Annie 
knows this.  Matt asks Josh what he is going to do next.

CEDARS:  Annie is crying while packing her locker.  Lilian comes in, and 
Annie thinks Lil let her down.  They argue then Blake comes in and sides with 
Annie.  Lilian leaves and Blake wants to know what's up.  Annie gives her the 
story about how all she does is take pills for migraine headaches.

FARM:  Roger has faced the facts and he will not stand in the way of Dinah 
and Hart's happiness.  Roger is exhilarated by starting from scratch "With 
nothing to my credit but my name."  Dinah:  "I wouldn't go thinking you can 
use your name as credit, Roger."  Roger tries to leave but Hart stops him by 
telling him that he should stay at the farm.

CEDARS:  Annie cannot explain Rick's behavior.  She points out several times 
how Rick is the father of one of Blake's babies.  

DINER:  Buzz sets the timer on the explosives and Reva thinks he is crazy.  
Buzz proclaims that without Reva the Diner is meaningless.  Reva begs Buzz to 
stop the detonator.

LOWHAD:  Josh will not leave Annie but he does not know how to approach her. 
 He is also worried about the kids.  Matts tell Josh that he and Vanessa will 
take care of the kids.  Realizing what he just said, Matt tells Josh that he 
is just tired.  Matt leaves and Josh goes to put the pills back in her bag 
just as Annie announces that she is home.

CEDARS:  Blake confronts Rick about Annie.  Rick tells Bloss that Annie is 
writing herself prescriptions from his pad.  Blake is reluctant to turn her 
back on Annie.

LOWHAD:  Josh puts the pills in his pocket and kicks the bag under the couch 
without Annie noticing.  Annie tells Josh that she quit Cedars due to Rick's 
annoyances.  Josh goes along with her.

DINER:  While the clock is ticking on the detonator, Reva cries and tells 
Buzz that she wants to be with him.  Beva kiss, the timer beeps and Buzz 
shuts it off with 2 seconds to spare.

FARM:  Roger goes off to make tea (but is really lurking outside the doorway) 
 Dinah questions Hart about asking Roger to stay at the farm.  Hart says that 
this way he can keep an eye on Roger.  Dinah goes home to the penthouse.

MUSICAL MONTAGE:  The show closes with a musical montage to "Have a Little 
Faith in Me".  Roger lays in bed at the farm, Hart is drinking tea, Dinah is 
tossing and turning in bed at the penthouse, Rick erases Annie's name from 
the nurses roster, Annie is searching for her pills, Josh sits alone on a 
bench in front of LOWHAD, and Buzz and Reva are rolling on the floor of their 
apartment.

This episode was written by Roger Newman and Directed by Brian Mertes.  Megan 
McTavish is still in the credits as Head Writer.
