Gabi assures Antonio that the archbishop changed his mind about the promotion only to avoid overburdening one of his favorite priests. Sean approaches Emily on the beach and begs her to let him explain. Cole and Olivia are annoyed to realize that Annie has managed to outwit them. Meanwhile, Annie finally meets Tobias for the first time. Recalling the archbishop's odd remarks, Antonio privately wonders if his brother let the cat out of the bag about his indiscretion.

Ricardo/Gabi/Maria/Michael:
Michael hands Ricardo a few papers and the video tape out of his glove
compartment. When Ricardo looks at tape he recalls seeing it for the first
time. Ricardo thanks Michael for giving him the stuff. Then Gabi comes in and
asks what they are talking about. Michael told her that Ricardo sent him to
get his car registration renewed and all the paper work was in the car so he
got everything out. Gabi says that she didn't have to do that and offers to
take care of it. Them Maria walks in. Ricardo says to himself that he can't
let Antonio and Gabi know that he has the tape of them making love. Not
before he makes them pay for betraying him.
Ricardo slips the tape in his drawer. Maria gives him a disc man to listen to. Gabi says that Maria is in a good mood and asks Maria if it was anything special. Maria recalls Ben telling her that he wants to be with her and making love with him. Ricardo asks her if it is good. She says that she hopes so. Gabi says that Maria probably has a good reason for keeping the secret and that she has that same problem with not telling her secret to another girl. And Ricardo asks what her secret is. She says that she just left the rectory and Antonio was there with the archbishop. Gabi says that she thinks that the archbishop had a change of heart about not giving Antonio his promotion. Ricardo says to himself that there's no way. Ricardo says to himself that after what he told the archbishop about the two of them it can't be good news. Maria says isn't this great news Ricardo. He mumbles yes. Gabi says that she hopes that she's right because Antonio deserves that promotion more then anything. Ricardo asks Maria if they could go to see what's happening with Antonio at the church but Maria says she can't go then because Benjy only has a half of day of school. Gabi says she will take him.
Ben/Meg:
Meg is at Sara's and her store hanging up some pictures. When she comes
across a painting of a mom reading a book to a little boy, she has a
flashback of that day when she saw Maria and Ben walking Benjy to school.
Then she puts back that picture and walks back to the front of the store. Ben
had just walked in and Meg asks why are you here? He says that he couldn't
stay and she knows why. He says you saw me and Maria taking Benjy to school.
She say that she wasn't following him. She says that things are over between
them and that she's accepted that. She says that she, Ben, and Maria have a
whole new set of realities to deal with. Ben says that things have changed.
She says well then you should know then that going over and over it won't
make things better and asks why he's there. He says that he saw how she
looked when she walked away at the school. She says that she can take care of
herself. He says that he couldn't just walk away. She says that he knows that
he has to. He asks her to listen to him and that he just wants to make her
feel better and that's why he came there. He pulls out a box and gives it too
her. She asks why he is doing this to her. He say because he hasn't stopped
caring about her. She opens the box and it's a pearl necklace. She says for
God's sake Ben. He says that he felt that she wouldn't take them because they
were expensive. He says that whatever they have between them there were still
a gift. She says that he's wrong and that they were a symbol of they're
commitment a pearl a week until they were married. She says that she can't
even look at them. say he didn't do it to hurt her and she agrees but she
can't pretend. He says but she can't just pretend that what they have is
nothing less then what they did. He said that he is trying to convince
himself that being with Maria and Benjy was the right thing. Meg says that he
made that decision and he knew it was right. He said maybe in his head but he
doesn't think he was really sure. Ben says that he never really believed it
with a whole heart. Meg said he wasn't making any sense. Ben said that he was
to him. Ben said that he doesn't know how to say this but he thinks he made a
terrible mistake. Meg says how dare you. She says that he said there wasn't
any future for them. He admits that he isn't making any sense. He says that
he misses what they had and that it was right. And they kiss. When they stop
Maria is standing in the doorway.
Annie/Cole/Olivia/Tobias:
Annie finds Tobias and plays the grieving widow just to get him to sign over
Treys inheritance. Just as he is about to sign his name Cole an Olivia burst
through the door and tell him to stop and not to sign. Annie acts as if she
doesn't even know them at all. Tobias asks you she is and she says that she
is Gregory's wife. Annie corrects her by saying ex-wife. Cole takes Annie out
Annie says not to believe anything that Olivia has to say. Olivia closes the
door and tries to manipulate Tobias to give her the money. She says that is
what Gregory would have wanted. Olivia say that all Annie wants is to get
Gregory's money. And Tobias says that that's exactly what Annie wanted. Out
in the hall, Annie says that all Olivia is a blood sucking, money grubbing,
witch. And all she wants is Treys money. She and Cole go back in side and
Olivia asks for more time. He says no. Then Tobias announces that he's made a
decision about the will.
Antonio/Archbishop:
Archbishop Damien told Antonio that he has known him for a long time and
have always trusted him. Antonio says since he was a Samaritan. And asks if
he no longer feel that way. Archbishop asks Antonio to be completely honest
with him. Antonio asks about what. Archbishop recalls Ricardo confessing
about Antonio and Gabi to him. a sister comes in and told Antonio that this
guy is here to probably write a check. Antonio says its probably about the
church renovation. And says to tell him he is in with the Archbishop.
The archbishop says no its all right and to go take of the renovations. Has Antonio leaves, the archbishop makes a call saying that he will need the number that he asked for earlier right away. When Antonio returns, The archbishop says that he is resigning Antonio to a monastery as soon as possible. Antonio say that he has visited people in a monastery and there are not allowed to have any visitors. Archbishop says that he know. Antonio says that he will be away from his friends and his family the people he loves. The archbishop says I know. Then Gabi and Ricardo are standing in the doorway and Gabi asks the Archbishop why he is doing this.
The Rectory/Carmen:
As you remember, the Archbishop had just told Antonio at the end of
yesterday's show that he was sending him to a monastery where he would not be
allowed visitors and couldn't see his family or friends. Gabi had just walked
in with Ricardo, and by the time the news update was over, Gabi knew what the
Archbishop's intentions were and wasn't very happy. She kept yelling at him
telling him it wasn't a good idea. She said he can't take him away from the
people who love him. Of course Ricardo is thinking she really means he can't
take Antonio away from her. Antonio tries to quiet Gabi down but she
continues to voice her opinion and told the AB he has to think about
Antonio's brother. The AB said he was. Antonio wants to know what that means.
Gabi doesn't know how the AB thinks he can take Antonio away from Ricardo.
Antonio told Gabi to stop arguing and the AB told Antonio to prepare to
leave tonight. The AB says he has some papers to sign. He takes off and
Antonio chases after him. Gabi asks Ricardo why he didn't say anything.
Ricardo says he could hardly get a word in edge wise. (Gabi was carrying on
none stop.) Gabi doesn't understand why the AB is doing this to Antonio and
says it's so unfair. Gabi says she better call their mother and let her know
so she can say good by to him. (What about Maria?) Antonio catches up to the
AB and told him he still has things to do here and if he leaves tonight, he
won't get them done. He told the AB he needs at least 3 or 4 days. The AB
says he's leaving tonight and in time he'll realize it's the right decision.
Antonio thinks he's punishing him. The AB has to go get some papers from his
car. Antonio wonders why this is so necessary. Meanwhile, Carmen is reading
her cards and trying to figure out why the AB changed his mind about
Antonio's promotion. She turns over a card that says "death" and says she has
to get to the church before it's too late. Gabi leaves Carmen a message
telling her she should get to the church right away. Ricardo is thinking that
both Gabi and Antonio have to pay. Gabi destroyed his love for her. Antonio
is back. Gabi told him how she called his mother. Antonio hopes she gets
here in time. Gabi asks Antonio if he has any ideas why the AB is doing this.
Antonio says he doesn't, but Ricardo pipes up he does. Carmen is speeding
along the road, trying to get to the church. The AB heads out to his car
after stopping once to think about what Ricardo told him about Gabi and
Antonio. He gets to his car and thinks about Antonio, Gabi, and Ricardo
again. The AB takes a briefcase out of the trunk of his car, starts to head
back to the church, but turns back to his car like he forgot something.
Meanwhile, speedy Gonzales is speeding along the road and hits the AB sending
him flying on the roof of her car.
London:
Apparently Tobias decided he's going to California since Gregory wanted him
to be the executrix of Trey's estate. Both Annie and Olivia try and talk him
out of it since he'd be leaving his work behind. Tobias doesn't seem to mind.
Annie invites him to live with her, but Olivia says she doesn't have a home.
He can stay with her home, which was Gregory's. Tobias says he was looking
over the will and it says Trey gets the house when he turns 21, and since
he's not 21 and since Tobias is the executrix, it appears the house belongs
to him. Tobias, Annie, Olivia, and Cole are trying to take their seats on the
plane back to Cal. Cole offers him his seat, but Olivia told him to sit next
to her. Rose brought Trey on board and Tobias gets to meet his nephew. Well,
actually he realizes he's not really his Great uncle, but Olivia says he is
in every way. Annie thinks someone is going to barf. Two men come on board
and wish to speak to Annie and Cole. They tell them they're under arrest and
going to jail together.
Meg's Shop:
When the show ended yesterday, Ben was kissing Meg and telling her he made a
mistake in his decision. Maria had walked in but I'm not sure she saw them
kissing or realized what was going on. By the time I saw them on today's
show, Maria was trying to make Meg feel better about Ben's decision to be
with her instead of Meg. She told Meg she knows how it hurts but thinks they
have to get on with their lives, since now they know where everyone stands.
Ben told Maria it's time to go.
Vanessa's Place:
Vanessa is home, much to Michael's dismay. He tries to have Casey hide a
laptop behind his back and asks Vanessa what she's doing home. She decided to
work at home today. Vanessa can see they're trying to hide something and
wants to know what's behind Casey's back. She says it looks a lot like her
laptop. Sure enough it is. Casey decides on that note he'll leave. Michael is
so apologetic saying he thought he was giving Vanessa a nice surprise by
putting a screen saver on her laptop. He didn't realize it would wipe out all
her files. Michael told her he'll cook, wash her car, and lots of other
things for the rest of their lives. Vanessa has a smile on her face and told
him he didn't wipe out any files because she has a lock on her computer so
files can't be wiped out. She also has them saved on disks. Michael was
afraid she'd never talk to him again. Vanessa says she did that once and
won't do it again. The camera shows us the screen saver which is a picture of
Michael and Vanessa.
The Beach:
Casey is on lifeguard duty, picking up cones off the beach. He notices Meg
walking along the beach and calls to her. Casey mentions what happened with
Vanessa's computer and Meg figures she'll be real mad at Michael. Casey
figures they'll work things out because they have a good relationship now.
Speaking of relationships, Casey asks Meg if she'd ever go back with Ben. Meg
says she'd get a door slammed in her face if she did. Casey reminds Meg that
Vanessa and Michael never stopped loving each other when they were apart. He
says some people just can't be kept apart. Meg says it's true meaning Ben and
Maria can't be kept apart. Meg says she has to get back to the shop.
The Shop:
Meg is in the shop, thinking about Ben telling her he made a terrible
mistake. The phone rings. It's Ben. He told her Maria is getting Benjy and
ice-cream and he's at his office at The Deep. He called to apologize for
putting Meg in an awkward position. He tries to talk about what happened
before Maria got there, but Meg says nothing happened. The kiss was nothing
because they're nothing. She hangs up on him.
Plane Back to Sunset Beach:
Two immigration officers come on board and tell Annie and Cole they're under
arrest and going to jail together. Olivia wants to know what the charges are.
They say Cole is a jewel thief and Annie stole a passport. Olivia says Cole
is a respectable law abiding person. The officers say if Cole doesn't come,
they'll take him in handcuffs. Cole says it's ok. He'll go. Olivia will get
him the best lawyers. One officer takes off with Cole. Olivia wants to know
why they're not arresting Annie. The other man told Annie to come along.
Annie says they should arrest Olivia because her sons doesn't have a
passport, but Olivia holds one up and says he does have one. She told Annie
to enjoy her stay in the tower. Annie yells back to Tobias and told him not
to listen to Olivia because she's crazy. Now that it's just Olivia and
Tobias, Olivia told him she wants to help him manage Trey's inheritance. She
says he can see how Annie tries to trick people. Tobias says he has to think
about it. Olivia wants Tobias to know that Annie would steal every last penny
of Gregory's money and figures Tobias wouldn't want to be responsible. All of
a sudden, Olivia thinks about Caitlin and figures she's going to blame her
for Cole's arrest. Tobias doesn't think Caitlin would accuse her but Olivia
says there's so much he doesn't know. Tobias told her to tell him so maybe
he can help. Olivia explains how Caitlin resents the fact she won't let her
raise Trey. She says Caitlin thinks Trey is hers and not Olivia's. Olivia
figures with Cole being arrested, she'll think Olivia did it to keep him and
Caitlin away from Trey. Tobias says it's not true and he'll make sure Caitlin
knows it. Olivia says that's so sweet of him. Meanwhile, Annie told the
officer she only borrowed the passport and had to get in the country because
she needed to get back her husband's money so she can leave it to a worthy
cause. If she can't get back in the country, she won't be able to finish her
work. Annie told him he should send her back to the states so she can finish
her work for the good people. I guess he fell for it because Annie announces,
she's back and sorry for the delay. Annie looks at her ticket and says she
has one, but it's in coach. Annie doesn't do coach. Annie told Olivia to
have Rose sit in coach and give her that seat. No go. Tobias stops a
stewardess and asks her if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him. No, but
it's reserved for first class. Annie figures she'll just have to go back to
coach. She heads that way, but stops to talk to the stewardess and wants to
know if there's anyway she can sit with her aging mom and dad. The stewardess
decides it's ok for her to use that seat. Annie takes the seat and told
Tobias and Olivia she's back again. Annie told Tobias, now they'll have
plenty of time to talk about why she should be the executrix. Olivia told
him not to listen to her since she should be the executrice.
Caitlin's Home:
Caitlin is going over the list of reason to declare a mother unfit and says
none of them apply to her mother. The doorbell rings. It's Jude with some
papers for Olivia to sign. Caitlin says she's not here but she'll be sure she
gets them. Jude is going to go, but Caitlin needs to talk to him. She wants
to know how well he knows AJ. Jude says he's none him most of his life and
he's like a father figure. Oh, so you're close. Jude says he is and isn't her
mother close to AJ. If Caitlin is worried he'll tell Jude about her top ten
list of ways to declare her mother unfit, she doesn't have to worry because
he won't say anything. Caitlin says the list was for a project she was doing.
Jude wants to know why she wanted to see him. Caitlin says she just wanted to
get to know him but realizes he doesn't believe her. Jude told her that her
family business is none of his business so she doesn't have to worry. Caitlin
says she appreciates Jude not telling AJ about her list because he might get
the wrong idea like Jude did. Jude wants to forget they ever had the
conversation. Jude told Cole he's a lucky person to have Caitlin for his
wife. He takes off. Caitlin gets a call from Cole. Cole told her he's being
detained because of some charges from his past. Caitlin wants to head right
to London. Cole told her not to bother because he'll be home real soon. He
says he loves her and Caitlin tries to say she loves him too, but the phone
disconnects. Caitlin figures this is her mother's fault.
Rectory and Outside Near by:
Gabi leaves a message at Carmen's place, telling her she should get to the
rectory so she can say good-bye to Antonio. Antonio is back and Gabi asks him
if he knows why the AB is doing this. Antonio doesn't know but Ricardo says
he does. Meanwhile, Carmen is speeding down the city streets, driving through
stop signs so she can get to the church and stop her children from any more
suffering. She thinks about turning over the death card. The Archbishop had
gone to his car to get a briefcase and headed back to the church but then
turned back toward his car like he forgot something. Carmen comes speeding
along and when she sees the AB, tries to put her breaks on but since she was
going too fast she can't stop and hits him, sending him flying up on the air
and bouncing off the hood of her car. Carmen jumps out of the car and says,
"No, no, no." She yells for someone to get help. Ricardo told Gabi and
Antonio, they're not going to like what he has to say. He says it has to do
with his talk with the AB. Antonio wants to know what the AB said to him.
Ricardo says it's not what he said, but. A sister comes rushing in saying
there was a terrible accident. Antonio went running out with Gabi and Ricardo
following. Antonio sees that the AB is still alive. His mother told him she
was driving too fast. Antonio told the AB his time isn't up. Carmen wants to
know if he's going to live. Antonio thinks he should perform the last rites.
He starts to give them, but the AB moves his head and opens his eyes. Antonio
tells him to stay calm because help is on the way. The AB tries to speak. He
says, "Must..tell.you..your.brother."
Emily's House:
Emily is home and told her mom she had to talk to Sean who still doesn't
know why he slept with Amy, but did it twice. There's a knock on the door.
It's Brad. Bette will give them a few minutes alone to talk. Brad told Emily
that he heard what happened and is so sorry. He says if she doesn't want to
go to work today, he'll take her shift. Emily says she'll take him up on
that. Brad told her if she needs a shoulder to cry on, his is available.
Emily may take him up on that. She says she still can't believe Amy and Sean
slept together. Brad says what they did was so low and they don't deserve to
be her friend. Emily says she always thought Brad didn't like her but now
he's being such a true friend. Brad says people aren't always what they seem
like. He takes off. Bette is back. Emily told her how sweet Brad was. Bette
says she could use a friend. Emily says if she had slept with Sean, he never
would have slept with Amy. Bette says if it takes sleeping with him to make
him not sleep with another person, she shouldn't want his love.
Lifeguard Station:
Amy finds Sean, holding a bouquet of flowers for Emily. She told him she
came to see Brad. Amy figures since Sean is waiting for Emily, they made up
but Sean says they didn't. She's madder then ever because she found out they
slept together, twice. Sean feels so ashamed about this and can't even tell
his sister, since he normally told his sister everything. Amy says she has
her to talk to instead. Sean says Amy has been so great through all this but
Amy says she hasn't. She told Sean how Emily came to see her and Amy tried
to tell her how she felt. She ended up getting Emily more upset and she
chewed Amy out, which she deserved. Amy says the truth is she still loves
Sean and is glad of what they shared. She figures Emily realizes that, so Amy
says she should stay away from Sean. She's going home to pack. Sean doesn't
want her to go. He's glad they're friends. Amy says she'd do anything for
Sean. Brad walks in, saying he's covering for Emily. Amy says she's going.
Sean thought she wanted to see Brad. Oh, just to say hi. "Hi Brad." Amy takes
off. Sean says he's going to Emily's house but Brad told him he should leave
her alone because he's hurt her enough. Sean knows he's a piece of garbage
and cheated on his girlfriend. He says he doesn't know how it happened but
has to make it right. Sean takes off.
Mrs. Moreau and Amy:
Mrs. Moreau is going through her bills and realizes she is completely broke.
She needs to find a rich client but where can she find one. Mrs. M remembers
Amy telling her that Sean is rich so she calls Amy, who's gotten home and
thinks it won't be long before Sean comes to her. Mrs. M. told Amy she wants
to talk to her in person. Amy says she paid for the love potion and hangs up,
saying their business is over.
