From: maclatch <maclatch@unbsj.ca> Subject: PC: Update, Wednesday, 29 April 1998 Date: Thu, 30 Apr 1998 10:14:26 -0300 Thanks for the responses to the updater request for subs on some upcoming Wednesdays. All three have been taken, and thanks for the overwhelming response. Ratsa people are the best! Port Charles Update Wednesday, 29 April 1998 Jailhouse Rock at PCPD Karen and Joe join Jake in the lab. Karen is upset that Julie was arrested by Garcia during the memorial service. Jake is surprised that Julie was arrested. Julie is at the PCPD being booked to the sounds of a techno pop song with the words "This is not my idea of a good time". Requisite pics of getting her mug shot done. Also at PCPD, Frank is upset, and Eve tries to calm him down. Frank wants to smash Garcia's face in. Lucy and Kevin are there at PCPD as well. Kevin wants to know *why* they're there. Lucy's there because she's spying on Eve ÷ she thinks Eve is the murderer because Scott found her bracelet on Devlin. Kevin thinks she needs to slow down and to user her common sense. Kevin wants to know how Scott figures into all this. Scott comes in and Frank wants to know what's going on. Julie comes in, dressed in the PC jail uniform of grey. Frank is upset ÷ tells Garcia that he's on the wrong track. Julie says she doesn't care who Garcia thinks he is or what he thinks he knows, how dare he arrest her her father's memorial service? Garcia heard she was going to Chicago, so he needed to arrest her asap. She is indignant, as she was going there for a service. Garcia will try to make her stay as comfortable as possible. She has to stay overnight, Scott says, as the judge can't hear her until the morning. Lucy sticks in her two cents worth, saying that Lee plays golf with all the judges in town, so couldn't Scott get a judge to do it earlier. Frank is still getting in Garcia's face. Garcia mentions that Frank must have eaten his wheaties this morning. Frank continues to be upset. Scott and Kevin try to calm him down. Scott leaves to go find out what's going on. Eve mentions to Frank that there must be some evidence, or Julie wouldn't have been arrested. Lucy cattily comments that the evidence is pointing at the wrong person. Kevin wants to go home. Lucy offers Eve a ride, as she came with Scott, but Eve wants to wait. If Eve's waiting, then so is Lucy. Jake thinks Julie must have been whacked out to kill her dad ÷ so maybe she can plead temporary insanity. Karen doesn't think Julie did it ÷ Eve is more likely. Joe and Jake think *anyone* could have done it. No one has an alibi. Maybe the drug company did it to get the formula? This is a weak proposition. The ferret is still doing well, however, it turns out that its injuries were much less than thought at first, so it doesn't need continuing injections. The rats on the other hand, are still very violent and had to be separated. If treatment is stopped, their injuries relapse. Frank's heart is racing, and he's sweating, but he tells Eve he is not feeling that badly. Eve wants him to tell her if he gets worse. She leaves. He takes the empty formula bottle out and looks at it. Garcia is interrogating Julie with Scotty present. Garcia sympathizes with how Julie feels. He was just doing his job. Scott tells him the good cop routine won't work. Garcia asks about the fight with her father, but he already knows the dad-slept-with-son's-girlfriend, son-kills-self story. Julie denies killing her father. Garcia prompts her ÷ she was stressed, not sleeping, was it an instant of thinking the world and her family would be better off without him? Eve knows that Lucy is staring at her, and mentions as much to Frank. Eve knows that Lucy thinks she did the murder. Frank asks her if she did, and she denies it. She asks him if he did, but he asks why he would do it when the man just saved his life, rather than answering the question. Lucy tells Kevin that she thinks Eve is happy, because Julie is taking the rap for her. Kevin thinks that Lucy is working on her own good piece of fiction. Kevin tells her she is feeling loss because Scott and Eve got together. He says Lucy is upset because they spent the night together. She tells him he's off base, but he thinks she doesn't want Eve to take Lucy's place with Scott and Serena. Lucy thinks Eve murdered Devlin because: Devlin dropped her, ruined her career and slugged her. Kevin counters these, but Lucy is insistent ÷ she needs to protect Scott and Serena from Eve. Eve wonders to Frank if there is any chance Julie could have done it. Frank is really riled up, and says he wishes he had done it. Eve is surprised Frank is so over the top in his emotional responses to all this. Jake, Joe and Karen discuss the worsening violence in the rats. They are going to do more tests to see if the rats' adrenalin and testosterone levels are up. More tests are needed, as it may not be the drug, but an indirect effect, causing the problem. Eve tries to get Frank to calm down. Frank is not well. He says it's muscle spasms, leaves room, and runs away. Eve and Lucy discuss Frank and Julie. Lucy thinks Eve must have mixed emotions. She of all people must have known Devlin at his best as well as his worst. Lucy says the murder probably wasn't premeditated. Eve says she didn't kill him, which she knows won't satisfy Lucy, but she didn't do it. Frank is outside the door of the intern lab, and overhears Karen say that the rats have high adrenalin levels. He pulls the fire alarm. Jake, Joe and Karen leave the lab. Frank enters and grabs some of the drug out of the open safe. Joe re-enters the lab. Julie denies to Garcia killing her dad. Every human, Garcia says, has the potential for violence. Scott wants to know the grounds for arrest. Garcia tells them ÷ Julie's prints are all over the murder weapon. -End-
