Scene 1

Paul Williams is dressed in old, ragged clothing. He’s painting the spare bedroom in his apartment navy blue. His daughter, Heather Stevens, enters the room, also dressed in old clothing. Paul is surprised to see her. “Heather, hi,” he greets her. “I just let myself in. I hope you don’t mind,” she says, “The front door was open.” “Oh, no, it’s fine,” Paul tells her. “So this is gonna be Ricky’s room?” Heather asks, looking around at the unfinished walls, “Yeah, if I can get it done in time. I need the paint to dry overnight so I can move the furniture in tomorrow morning.” “Well, you’re in luck,” Heather replies, “I’ve come to volunteer my services.” She picks up an extra paint brush from the paint tray.

Scene 2

Meanwhile, at the Abbott Manor, Jack Abbott is showing his brother Billy Abbott the bedroom that he had professionally redone for his troubled son Kyle, who is coming to visit for an undetermined period of time. “This was Noah’s room… when he lived here,” Jack states. “You’d never know,” Billy replies, looking at the generic-style bedroom, “Sorry, Jack. This room is boring.” “Boring?” Jack is surprised. “Yeah, boring. With a capital B,” Billy continues, “You want Kyle to be comfortable here, right?” “Of course, I do,” Jack answers, “I know it doesn’t look like much now, but once Kyle comes and brings some personal effects…” “He’s coming to visit, not move in,” Billy tells Jack, “You have to make it feel like a home. What you have here is not a teenager’s room, it’s what you’d find at the Athletic Club.” “Maybe you’re right,” Jack admits, “Heck, how am I supposed to decorate for Kyle? I’ve almost forgotten what a 17 year-old’s room looks like.” “Well, what’s his favorite TV show?” Billy asks. “I don’t know,” Jack admits. “What bands does he like?” Billy follows up, “What kind of music?” “I don’t know,” Jack admits again before having a realization, “God, I never realized it until now, but I know virtually nothing about my own son.” “Yeah, well, I’m sure when he gets here, you’ll learn things about him, you wish you didn’t know… In the meantime, I can improvise,” Billy says, “Never fear, because Cool Uncle Billy’s here, and I’m gonna turn this room in every 17 year-old boy’s dream room.”

Scene 3

At the apartment of Kevin Fisher and Jana Hawkes Fisher, Kevin, his mother Gloria Bardwell, his half-brother Michael Baldwin, his sister-in-law Lauren Fenmore Baldwin, and his friends Daniel Romalotti, Jr. and Amber Moore Romalotti continue telling Jana about her life in Genoa City. “When you were in prison, I proposed to you… on Thanksgiving,” Kevin informs her, “It took you a while to come around… you told me you didn’t want me to be tied down to someone who’d spend the rest of her life behind bars.” “Kevin… he campaigned really hard for you to be released from prison,” Michael adds, “He made posters and t-shirts and got a bunch of experts to testify that your tumor was behind all of your irrational behavior.” “Eventually, the DA’s office agreed and dropped the charges,” Daniel completes the story.

“And I wasn’t the only one who was willing to give you a chance to start over,” Kevin says, “Sabrina Newman, she gave you a job as her personal assistant for the Newmans’ modern art gallery.” “Sabrina Newman, Victoria Newman’s daughter?” Jana guesses. “No, his wife,” Kevin corrects her, “But she was closer to our age.” “I thought Victor was married to Nikki,” Jana says. “Yeah… the guy gets around a lot,” Daniel jokes. “Victor and Sabrina were newlyweds,” Michael clarifies to Jana. “You were her Maid of Honor,” Kevin tells Jana. “Sabrina’s actually the one who encouraged me to become an artist,” Daniel says. “Where is she… Sabrina?” Jana wonders, “Why isn’t she here?” “She’s dead,” Kevin states. “How?” Jana asks. “Just shortly after her wedding, she was… she got in a car accident. You were by her side in the hospital,” Kevin explains.

Kevin flashes back to the night of Sabrina’s death. He and Jana had gone to visit her at Memorial Hospital. Kevin had waited outside while Jana was in Sabrina’s room with Victor Newman. “Thank you… for letting me into your life,” Jana had said softly. “Thank… you,” Sabrina had whispered, weakly. Jana had leaned over and given her a kiss on the head. Then she left the room…

“That’s so tragic,” Jana comments, “She was so young. Sabrina… and Colleen. And Carmen… God, it’s like I’m bad luck or something. Why do all of women around me die before their time? It’s just… it’s not fair…”

Scene 4

At the Chancellor Estate, Katherine Chancellor Murphy is in the living room pouring a drink when Jill Abbott walks into the room. “You seem to be in a much better mood than you were earlier,” Katherine notices. “Don’t get me started,” Jill fires back. “Maybe not,” Katherine corrects herself. There are a few moments of silence. Katherine takes a drink and Jill sits down to read a book.

“So I take it you haven’t changed your mind?” Katherine suddenly asks. “About?” Jill questions. “Oh, for heaven’s sakes, Jill, you know what about,” Katherine snaps, “I thought you would be all over this chance to come back to Chancellor Industries.” “I would, if it wasn’t for her,” Jill admits, referring to Nikki, “You have always thought of her as a daughter. You’ve always treated her like a daughter. Even before we thought we were related. And then I thought that I had something that she didn’t. I was your daughter by blood, and blood was supposed to be thicker than water. ‘Cause we were family.” “We are family,” Katherine insists. “No, we’re like family,” Jill maintains, “But we’re not family, Katherine. Don’t you see? Now, I’m just like Nikki again… And if I have to work at Chancellor, I’m gonna be around her everyday, and I’ll be reminded of that fact. Constantly.”

Scene 5

Paul and Heather continue painting Ricky’s room. Paul puts his brush down for a moment. “This is nice, us spending some time together,” Paul tells his daughter, “I know I haven’t seen much of you lately.” Heather stops painting for a moment. “Well, I’ve been busy with work and you’ve been busy with Aunt Patty,” Heather justifies. “Yeah, she made a card... uh, for Ricky. You should see it,” Paul informs his daughter, “Hold on. I’ll be right back.” He leaves the room for a few moments and comes back with a piece of folded paper with crayon drawings on it. “Are your hands clean?” Paul asks to make sure she won’t get any paint on the card. He hands it to Heather who reads the writer aloud, “’Welcome home, Little Ricky. Love your Aunt Patty.’ Ah, wasn’t that nice of her? Are you gonna show it to him?” “Well, that’s complicated,” Paul answers, “If I don’t, it wouldn’t be because I’m embarrassed or ashamed of Patty.” “You just don’t want to add any stress to his visit,” Heather guesses. “Something like that,” Paul replies vaguely. Heather senses that he is leaving something out.

“But, you know, It’ll be nice to have someone else living here, though. Being in this empty apartment, I’ve been a little lonely since Maggie moved away… and Nikki left me, and now Nina’s been in Australia,” Paul continues, “Now, Ricky gives me something positive to focus on.” “Look at you changing the subject. You know, you don’t talk about Ricky that much,” Heather notices, “And when I first found out that you were my father, and you mentioned me having a little brother, I always thought it was odd that you barely ever had any contact with him. I’ve learned to stop asking questions and let it go… But I have to say, now you’ve got me wondering what the story is.” Paul decides to give her an honest answer: “Well, it’s a long and complicated story,” he tells his daughter, “but to sum it up in one word, the reason has to do with Ricky’s mother… Isabella.”

Scene 6

Kevin continues to tell Jana details of her life while Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber listen in. “We finally got married in that summer,” Kevin begins, “August 2008.” “Wow, can you believe your two year anniversary is coming up already?” Amber exclaims, “You two are lucky. Some people don’t even make it that long.” She gives Daniel a sad look. He gives her a glare back, but his face is unreadable.

“What was it like… on our wedding day?” Jana asks, picking up their framed wedding photo, “I mean, I’ve seen the wedding picture here, but I’d like to hear more.” “The ashram was so beautiful,” Gloria states, “It had an Oriental feel to it… it was calming and peaceful. Such a different way of life.” “Originally, you wanted a Gothic wedding,” Amber reminds everyone, “I was gonna design your dress.” “But then you changed your mind,” Kevin adds. “Yeah, you wanted a more zen-type ceremony,” Daniel finishes. “You gave me this weird… um, this unique jacket to wear,” Kevin informs Jana, “But um, Daniel ended up wearing it.” “I still have that thing,” Daniel announces, “As a matter of fact, it just so happens that I have it with me.” Daniel reveals the gray blazer that he wore at Kevin and Jana’s wedding and tosses it over to Jana. “Oh, God! Look at this thing!” Jana remarks, “It’s even worse than in the pictures. I can’t believe I would have chosen this for you to wear, Kevin.” “But you don’t remember picking it out, or anything?” Kevin asks. Jana shakes her head ‘no.’

“Do you remember Michael walking you down the aisle?” Lauren asks. Before she can answer, Michael adds, “And what I said to you, right before that,” he begins, “I know you don’t remember it, but I still do…”

Michael flashes back to the wedding day at Ashram Bhakti. As he walked Jana down the aisle, he stopped her for a brief moment. “Sorry… I’m an idiot,” he had stated. Jana looked confused. “In the past, I’ve never kept it a secret that I have… disliked you. And that was not kind of me. You love my brother… and… I love you for that. I’m sorry…” Tears had welled up in Jana’s eyes. “Thank you,” she had whispered. They had taken a moment to collect themselves and then continued down the aisle…

“You said that?” Lauren asks, “That was very sweet.” “Yes, it was, Michael,” Jana agrees, “I’m sure I appreciated that very much.”

Scene 7

At his apartment in the city, Paul tells Heather about Ricky’s mother, Isabella. “We were only married for a short time,” Paul begins, “She was young and needed someone to protect her… and… beautiful. She was very beautiful, but she was also very jealous. She was always paranoid about me and my ex-wife… Christine. She thought that by taking Christine out of the picture, she could hold on to me. But she was delusional, and disturbed, so much so that she faked her own death and tried to frame Chris for her murder.” “No way,” Heather gasps, “You’ve gotta be kidding.” “I wish,” Paul replies, “And that’s not even the end of it… Isabella, she returned and broke into Christine’s apartment. She drugged her drink and planned to kill her. If Michael and I hadn’t gotten there just in time…” “Isabella would have succeeded,” Heather deduces. “Yeah,” Paul confirms, “And Chris wouldn’t be here right now.” “What happened to her?” Heather asks, “Isabella, I mean… is she in prison?” “No, she wasn’t fit to stand trial,” Paul answers, “She was sent to a psych ward.” “Just like Patty,” Heather realizes. “Yeah. So you see why I’m hesitant to involve Ricky in anything related to Patty. He doesn’t know that his aunt is in a mental institution, and he certainly doesn’t know that his mother is in a mental institution… and I’d like to keep it that way.” “It’s just funny,” Heather realizes, “Well, not funny. Scary, actually… it’s like Isabella is your Patty.” “I’ve never really thought of it like that,” Paul admits, “But I guess, seeing what Patty’s gone through this last year does make me have a bit more sympathy for Isabella.” “You know what? I’m really sorry that I got you distracted,” Heather says, “If we keep talking, this room will never be finished.” “Yeah, you’re right about that,” Paul agrees. “Why don’t I run out and pick up a few extras for Ricky’s room?” Heather suggests. “Oh, you don’t have to do that,” Paul tells her. “No, I want to,” Heather insists, “I’m really excited… I’ve never had a brother before.”

Scene 8

At the Chancellor Estate, Jill and Katherine continue their conversation. “Jill, would you stop being so bitter and jealous, and feeling sorry for yourself?” Katherine demands, “Where is that strong woman who believed in herself and her talents?” “It’s kind of hard to believe in yourself if you don’t know who you are,” Jill retorts. “Nonsense! You know exactly who you are,” Katherine insists. “I mean, where I came from,” Jill elaborates, “Who my mother is, my father…” “Jill, you already have a mother – two mothers,” Katherine reminds her, “In every way that counts, my dear friend Liz Foster is your mother, and I will always think of you as my daughter.” “Is that why you’re offering me this job?” Jill asks, “Because you feel obligated to hire me in the ‘family’ company?” “Well, of course, I want you to be taken care of,” Katherine answers, “But I’m not offering you a job because I feel sorry for you. Heavens, no. Jill, you were a tremendous asset to Jabot, and you were a tremendous asset to Chancellor. That’s why I want you back.” “Okay, fine. Then, I’ll accept your job offer…,” Jill finally agrees, “and I suppose I could give it a shot, working with Nikki, if that’s what you want…” “That’s all I’m asking,” Katherine states. “Let me ask you something,” Jill says, “How did I end up with two wonderful women who want to be my mother? How come both of you want to call me your daughter, but the woman who gave me life wanted nothing to do with me?”

Scene 9

Kevin continues to tell Jana details of her life while Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber listen in. “The wedding ceremony itself was, um… filled with surprises, to say the least, but it was nice. It was beautiful,” Kevin informs her.

Kevin flashes back to their wedding day at the ashram. “Jana Hawkes, I love you. I knew I was gonna marry you the day I met you. When you first started working at the Coffee House, you were this funky, scooter-riding, serial killer obsessed Brit. And I was immediately, as you would say, gobsmacked. These days, you're not so obsessed with serial killers, thank God. You sold your scooter, and you're not quite as funky as you used to be, but you're still my Brit, and I am still gobsmacked,” Kevin had said, “Now we've both done some thing that maybe shouldn't be mentioned at a wedding, even this one, but they're part of our history, and I am so in this for the long haul. We're starting our married life in this new age, and we're gonna end it in our old age. I love you so much.” “And, Jana?” River had prompted her. “When I first met you, I was fascinated with the darker side of life,” Jana had begun, “Who would've thought that I'd go from Goth girl to good girl, but you were a very bad influence on me. Now... I've taken some wild and rather strange paths in my life, but the path that I look forward to taking the most... is the one I'm about to take with you. I promise to love, honor and not obey… In this lifetime and the next. I love you.” Kevin laughed. “The rings, please,” River had instructed, “The circle of the ring represents timelessness, wholeness and homecoming. Like the change of seasons, may your faith and devotion be renewed, and may this union forever endure. You are now husband and wife. And you may kiss each other, if that is the path you choose to take.” “Oh, definitely,” Kevin had joked right before he and Jana shared their first kiss as husband and wife…

“River, who turned out to be Michael’s father,” Gloria adds, “Lowell Baldwin.” “That topic is off-limits,” Michael interjects. “Michael, Jana needs to hear this part,” Kevin states. “Can you imagine that?” Gloria continues, “Of all the places you could have chosen to get married, Jana, you picked the one where Michael’s long-lost father happened to be? You thought it was fate.”

Scene 10

Heather is in an aisle of Trumble’s Book Store that sells posters. She’s holding a few posters of cars in her hand while trying to browse through the rest of the collection. “So the Assistant DA is into muscle cars?” a voice says from behind, “I should have known… you like cars like you like your men: oversized parts and an ability to perform…” Such smarmy words could only be coming from playboy Billy. Heather turns around to face him. She looks uncomfortable and slightly embarrassed. “Okay, Billy, that’s enough,” she warns. Billy grins and keeps going: “What? You have some reputation to protect?” he asks, “I do remember a night a couple months ago that I revved your engine and you didn’t seem to mind back then.” Heather tries to put Billy in his place. “Look, if you’re trying to hook up with me again…,” she begins. “Nope. I’m just making conversation, that’s all,” Billy assures her. “Well, I’d appreciate it if you’d go away,” Heather requests, “or at find something else to start a conversation about.” “Well, somebody seems to have lost her fun side,” Billy claims, “ And I know you have one cause you showed it to me that night… so where is it? Underneath all these clothes, I bet…” “Stop it!” Heather insists. “Okay, okay, cool it. I’m just joking around,” Billy admits, “Gotta have fun somehow…”

“Very funny, Billy. And actually, these posters aren’t even for me,” Heather informs him, “They’re for my little brother.” “You have a little brother?” Billy asks. “Yeah, Ricardo, but he goes by Ricky. He’s my dad’s other son,” Heather explains, “He lives in Los Angeles with his grandparents. He hasn’t been back to Genoa City since he was a kid.” “Hmmm, that sounds vaguely familiar,” Billy recalls. “Well, he’s staying with my dad for the summer,” Heather adds, “We’re decorating his bedroom. That’s what these posters are for.” “Oh, yeah? You wanna here the strangest thing?” Billy replies, “See, I have a nephew… a younger nephew, Kyle, who just happens to be coming to stay with Jack tomorrow.” “Tomorrow?” Heather repeats, “Well, that’s when Ricky’s coming.”

Scene 11

Paul continues to paint the spare room of his apartment. Suddenly, the door bell rings. Paul answers it and sees Katherine. “Katherine…,” Paul says. “Oh, I can see this is not a good time,” Katherine observes, seeing the paint all over Paul’s clothing. “Oh, don’t worry about it. I was just about to take a break,” Paul informs her, “Please come in.” “Thank you,” Katherine says, “So, are you redecorating?” “What gave you that impression?” Paul says with a laugh. He’s covered in paint and all the bedroom furniture is piled in the hallway and the living room. “Actually, it’s just the spare bedroom,” he continues, “My son, Ricky – I don’t know if you remember him… he’s coming to stay with me for the summer.” “Yes, yes, of course, I remember,” Katherine recalls.

“So, anyway, why don’t you tell me why you stopped by,” Paul suggests, “I’d offer you a seat, but I’m sorry, everything’s blocked off.” “It’s quite alright,” Katherine says, “That’s what I get for dropping in unexpectedly.” “Well, I get the sense this isn’t a social visit,” Paul deduces. “No, you’re right, it’s not,” Katherine admits, “You know… it’s wonderful, what you were talking about, how you and your son are in a sense being reunited with one another. Well, that’s actually why I’m here… in a sense.” Paul is a little confused. “I’m not sure I understand,” he tells Katherine. “Well, at Christmas time, Jill tried to do something nice for me by finding my daughter. We all know how that turned out. But, now, I wanna return the favor, and find her birth mother.”

Scene 12

Kevin continues to tell Jana details of her life while Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber listen in. “As much as I hate to say it, after our wedding, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for us… Last year, this guy, Clint Radison, um, he made me believe he was my abusive father, Tom, and he made me rob banks for him… He kept me locked in a closet. Amber actually, um, found me.” “But I couldn’t stop him. And we ended up on the run… it’s a really long story, but it totally turned out okay,” Amber blurts out, “The governor even pardoned us, so it’s all good now.” Jana looks concerned. “But before that happened, I ended up in a mental institution for a little bit,” Kevin reveals. “You were so worried the whole time Kevin was missing,” Daniel tells Jana, “You were constantly getting these headaches. The stress was a lot for you to handle.” “Yeah, but I can still hear the speech that you gave to Kevin, telling him not to give up and to keep fighting, after he was put into the institution,” Lauren says, “Because that’s what you were gonna do… You were so strong and you were gonna keep fighting…”

Lauren flashes back to the day that she and Jana visited Kevin when he was locked away in a padded cell at the mental institution. “Kevin, my darling, please look at me,” Jana had said, “You know who I am, don’t you? I can see it in your eyes. And I know who you are. You’re the man who pulled me out of the brink. The whole world gave up on me except for you. It was a really long and hard struggle but we did it together. And now I am here for you. And I’m not going to give up on you either.” Kevin had just stared blankly ahead, never acknowledging his wife or the words she said…

“That’s right, Jana,” Kevin says, “You didn’t give up on me, and now it’s my turn not to give up on you. You know, it’s funny. It’s like, now it’s reversed. It’s like, it’s this crazy, twisted relationship we have where one of us goes through a crisis, then everything’s okay, then the other one goes through a crisis. We have to stop doing that. Let’s just get to the happily ever after part…”

Scene 13

Billy and Heather continue to converse while browsing through car posters. “So how old is this little brother of yours anyway?” Billy asks.. “Seventeen,” Heather answers. “Yep. That’s how old Kyle is,” Billy realizes, “So another generation of Abbotts and Williamses runnin’ amuck around town, huh?” “Are you worried?” Heather questions, “It seems like Abbotts and Williamses together is a combination for disaster… Look at your brother and my Aunt Patty.” “Yeah, well, we got together and nothing happened,” Billy says, “except a little burnt rubber… But I’ll tell you, we were so hot, I’m surprised we didn’t trigger an explosion.” Heather is not amused. Rolling her eyes, she starts to walk away. Billy grabs her arm gently. “Look, I’m sorry. You walked right into that one… I couldn’t help myself,” he apologizes, “I’m sorry. No more. I promise.” Heather takes a deep breath. “Since you’re here, just tell me if I picked the right posters,” Heather orders. “Alright, let’s see… you’ve got your Camaro, Mustang, Firebird… Dodge Charger,” Billy observes, “Yep. Those are some good choices. Definitely.”

Scene 14

Paul and Katherine continue to discuss Katherine’s request for his assistance. “It’s Jill’s birthday at the end of September, and I was hoping that finding her mother could be my present for her.” “Well, I’ll be upfront with you and tell you that tracking down information is gonna be difficult. I remember Charlotte Ramsey had virtually disappeared when I was searching for Joanne Glover,” Paul recalls. “Well, maybe Tucker knows something since he obviously orchestrated that switch with the adoption records,” Katherine suggests, “I’ll talk to him.” “And I can’t make any promises… But I’ll check back in with the adoption agency and do some digging,” Paul agrees. “Thank you,” Katherine says. She gives him a hug. “I’ll check in with you soon, alright?” Paul promises.

As Katherine heads out the door, Jill enters the hallway from the other direction. She sees Katherine leave Paul’s apartment.

Scene 15

Kevin continues to tell Jana details of her life while Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber listen in. “I think it’s time that I tell you what led to your aneurysm,” Kevin announces. Jana takes a deep breath. “I’m ready,” she says. “Well, you know that I have a half-brother named Ryder,” Kevin begins, “Well, I also have a half-sister named Daisy. She’s Ryder’s twin, but I haven’t told you about her yet.” “Ryder mentioned Daisy to me… at the pool party,” Jana recalls, “He also said something about someone named Sarah.” “Yeah, their aunt,” Michael states, “She was their mother’s sister.” “Ryder and Daisy’s mother, her name was Sheila,” Lauren says, “and she was a monster who terrorized me for and my family for years.” “What happened to her?” Jana asks. “I killed her… the last time she came after my family…”

Scene 16

Billy returns to the Abbott Manor with supplies for Kyle’s bedroom. He rejoins Jack upstairs. “Gather around!” he announces, “Check out all these goodies. Car posters, some cool bands, sports posters… he can get rid of whatever he doesn’t want.” “Yeah, those are great. Thanks,” Jack replies appreciatively. “But that’s not all,” Billy continues, “X-box 360, the latest Grand Theft Auto, Resident Evil, Assassin’s Creed I and II… a bunch of other shooting games.” “Great,” Jack remarks sarcastically, this time. “…And what every teen boy’s room needs,” Billy says as he holds up a poster of a topless pinup model, “from my personal collection…” “Maybe Kyle’s Uncle Billy isn’t the best role model for him,” Jack states. “Hey, this model got me though many tough days of high school,” Billy informs Jack, “She’s very difficult for me to part with, but I am passing her on to my nephew. So she stays…” “Yeah, yeah, just find something to cover her up with,” Jack relents. “Face it, Jacky, your son is 17,” Billy reminds him, “You may not remember what that time of your life is like, but I certainly do. And when you need to understand what’s going on in that devious little mind of his, you know you’re gonna come to me.” “Me getting parenting advice from my little brother,” Jack laughs at the thought, “Hell, I’ve practically been parenting you for these past few years.” “I resent that comment,” Billy remarks. “Okay, I guess you haven’t needed as much parenting lately,” Jack admits, “You’ve been acting more responsibly. You’ve been a good father to Delia; you’ve kept Restless Style a success; you haven’t been hooking up with women that you shouldn’t.” “Well, two outta three ain’t bad,” Billy remarks.

Scene 17

At the Fishers’ Apartment, Lauren has just finished telling Jana all about Sheila and Sarah. Kevin, Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber listen in. “So this Sarah woman had plastic surgery to look like you, just like Sheila had plastic surgery to look like Phyllis?” Jana clarifies, “That’s bloody messed up…” “But that’s not all,” Lauren says, “You were suspicious of Ryder and Daisy. They were pretending like they had never met each other, but you didn’t buy it. You discovered their connection before anyone.” “So they kidnapped you,” Kevin finishes, “They took you to this abandoned amusement park outside of town and kept you locked up in a cage. Like an animal. They tried to make me believe you didn’t love me anymore. That you had left me for another man. But I knew that you would never do that to me.” “What does this have to do with my aneurysm?” Jana wants to know.

“You started having headaches again, like the ones you had when Kevin was kidnapped by Clint,” Lauren answers, “Ryder… he would bring us food and water. And he brought you medicine, all of it against Sarah and Daisy’s wishes. If it hadn’t been for Ryder, we would have both been dead. When he decided to let us go, though, your condition had deteriorated so much. You were in so much pain.” “And that’s when I had the aneurysm,” Jana realizes.

“Ryder, he felt horrible… that he was too late. He didn’t want to go along with the plan to start with,” Lauren defends Ryder, “Sarah and Daisy forced him into it. He regretted it from the beginning.” “Where is he?” Jana asks, “Why isn’t he here?” “I didn’t know how you’d react to him,” Kevin answers.

Scene 18

Paul is finishing painting Ricky’s bedroom. Heather returns. “Hey, how’d you make out?” he asks her. “I got a couple posters; I ran into Billy… he said Ricky would like them.” “That’s great. It’s been a long time since this apartment has been inhabited by a child,” Paul states, “And never by a teenager. So those’ll make it more comfortable for Ricky.” “I’ll go out again tomorrow morning,” Heather says, “and see what else I can pick up before he gets here.” “Thanks, I really appreciate that,” Paul tells his daughter. “Well, like I said, having a brother is all new to me,” Heather repeats, “I wanna make sure I’m a good sister.” “You will be,” Paul assures her.

Once again, Paul gets a knock on the door. This time, it’s Jill. “Hi… Jill, this is a surprise,” Paul says. “Hi Paul. I hope you don’t mind me showing up here unannounced,” Jill tells him. “Well, I am kind of in the middle of something,” Paul answers, making it obvious that he’s covered in paint. “I just saw Katherine leave,” Jill reveals. “Oh, well that was Chancellor business,” Paul lies, “Standard background checks on some new employees.” “Oh, I see,” Jill replies, “Well, I’m actually here for personal reasons… I was hoping you could help me find my mother.”

Scene 19

At the Fishers’ Apartment, Kevin reaches the end of his narration of Jana’s life in Genoa City. Gloria, Michael, Lauren, Daniel, and Amber are still present. “Do you remember any of this?” Kevin asks Jana, “Anything at all?” Jana shakes her head. She has a sad look on her face. “No… no, I don’t,” she admits, “I’m sorry. I want to… and I know how much you want me to. All of you. I wish I could…” Kevin tries to stay optimistic, to not show his disappointment and frustration in front of Jana. “Maybe… you just need a little more time still?” he says. “How much more time?” Jana asks, raising her voice, “How long is this gonna go on for? I am so tired of feeling lost and alone, and trapped in some other woman’s life. I just, I want my memory back. And I want my life back.” “I know you do… I know,” Kevin says softly, trying to comfort his wife, “Come here.” He hugs Jana as she sobs. After a few moments, she pulls away gently. She wipes her tears. “I’ve disappointed you…,” Jana says stoically, “This was a nice thing you arranged… I’m sorry to have gotten your hopes up.”

Just then, there’s a knock on the door. “I’ll get it,” Kevin announces. He opens the door to see Katherine standing outside. “Mrs. C, please come in,” Kevin says. “Thank you, Kevin,” Katherine replies, as she steps inside, “Hello, everyone.” Katherine catches sight of Amber. “Mrs. C!” Amber yells out as she runs over to her friend. “Oh, Amber, darling. It is so good to see you,” Katherine says as she gives Amber a big hug, “We’ll catch up afterwards, alright?” Amber nods her head.

“Jana, you know Mrs. Chancellor,” Kevin reintroduces them, “she’s a good friend of the family and maybe soon-to-be my boss again.” “Your boss, really? Have you been offered a new job?” Jana inquires. “Yeah, we can talk about that later,” Kevin answers. Jana turns to Katherine. “It’s a pleasure to meet you… again,” she says. “Thank you,” Katherine replies. “Seriously, I know you have a lot to do since you’ve been back at Chancellor,” Kevin tells Katherine, “It means a lot that you came here.” “My dear, I’d be nowhere else,” Katherine says, with a smile.
