From: kbeale@gwis2.circ.gwu.edu (Kristina Beale) Subject: PC: Wednesday, May 13 1998 Update Date: 14 May 1998 00:00:38 GMT Port Charles Update Wednesday, May 13, 1998 This is my first update, so please be kind! I'm subbing for Deborah. Let me say that I have a lot of respect for all the updaters - this was a lot more work than I thought it would be! Well, I hope this is good enough - let's start with the show! Suspicious Scotty Scott hangs up after listening to Grace's message (the one she left on Monday). He turns around and gives Eve "that look" and then tells Eve about the message, insinuating Eve knows someting about Grace's death. Eve explains about what Grace heard. Scott then says that makes Eve and Chris the most logical suspects in Grace's murder. Eve protests, claiming innocence. Scott asks if she's holding something back about Devlin's murder - there's then a flashback to Devlin accusing Eve of being a hooker. She claims that she's not holding anything back. The next day, Scott finds Eve at the hospital (she just finished talking with Chris [see below - Let's Accuse Chris], he just finished talking with Lucy [see below - Where's Victor?]). Scott asks Eve why she was kissing "that peacock in a lab coat". Eve says this has Lucy Coe written all over it. He says that Lucy caught them together in the lab. Eve explains that she and Chris were playing around in the lab, no big deal, he went in to kiss her, "it was fast, it was Chris". Scott gets mad - "where does he get off thinking he can just grab you and kiss you?" Eve says that if the cops find out about their fake alibi, they'll go after her for Devlin's murder. She swears that she didn't kill anyone. Scott says that with all the lies floating around, he doesn't know who to believe. Where's Victor? Scene opens with Kevin talking with his publisher. He wants to call everyone he killed off in his book, but the publisher protests (maybe too much?). Lucy comes out and says that maybe the murders aren't related to the books. Kevin asks about Victor - no one has seen him since the therapy session with Gail. Kevin then starts to call people on the list, starting with Alan Quartermaine. Lucy then says that calling them is the right thing to do, although they'll probably never be invited to another party. Next morning, Kevin comes out in his bathrobe. There is still no sign of Victor. Lucy comes in with the mail - she was wrong. There's an invitation to Stefan & Katherine's engagement party. The doorbell rings - Kevin rushes to the door, hoping it's Victor. It's Scott. He came over to offer the services of his security team. Kevin wants to accept, while Lucy says they don't need the security team. She knows who the real killer is. Scott gets annoyed at Lucy. She says she won't stop until Scott starts thinking with his brain. Lucy tells Scott that Devlin was already investigating Eve - goes on to state all the evidence against Eve. She says it's more than the cops have against Julie (true). Scott claims it's circumstantial. Lucy says that she saw Eve and Grace together at the hospital at the circus right before Grace was murdered. Scott decides he wants to leave. Kevin tries to stop her, but Lucy goes ahead and tells Scott that she saw Eve and Chris kissing and talking about Eve getting Scott's money and then marrying Chris. Scott says they were probably joking (duh - I hope Lucy doesn't honestly believe they were being serious, because otherwise I have greatly overestimated her intelligence). Lucy says something is just not right, that she can feel it. Scott wants to know why it's so important for her to break them up - she says it's because she cares about Scott and Serena and doesn't want to see them hurt. Scott says he thinks Lucy is jealous of Eve. Kevin stops them, saying that if they continue they'll both say something they can't take back. Lucy then leaves to pass out flyers for Victor. She says that it's not because she's jealous but because she doesn't want to see Serena hurt by a cold hearted killer. Kevin apologizes to Scott after Lucy leaves and tries to explain her actions. He then says that he doesn't think Eve is a killer. Scott then says that Kevin is the brains in that house, then leaves to find out what really happened between Chris and Eve (see above). We then see Lucy run into Julie at the hospital. Lucy asks Julie to help her get evidence against Eve, to which Julie agrees. Next we see Lucy come home - there's still no word on Victor. Lucy asks about Scott, and claims she will prove that she's right about Eve. She says she feels she's right, down in her bones. It's not just jealousy. Kevin brings up the possibility that Victor is the killer. Then we see Julie sneaking around Eve's bedroom. She finds Eve's address book and manages to hide it on her right before Eve walks in. Julie makes up a lame story about looking for aspirin that Eve seems to buy. Julie then leaves, with a satisfied grin on her face. Let's Accuse Chris Chris walks out of the on call room and runs into Matt, who was waiting for him. Matt accuses Chris of killing Grace, saying that he's sick of Chris weaseling out of every rotten thing he does around the hospital and says that this time he's going to pay. Chris proclaims his innocence, saying why would he kill Grace - she was a terrific person. Matt accuses Chris of bringing the Mancusis to Port Charles - Chris still maintains his innocence. Matt then says that Chris gets off on destroying others' lives. Chris then goes on to say that Grace was a great person and that he's sorry, but that he had nothing to do with her death. Matt says he's going to nail Chris for this, to which Chris responds, "You want my head? Fine! You come and get it if you can. For now I'm taking you at your word. Meaning if your big thing is being treated like everyone else, then the next time you get in my face I'm going to knock you out!" Matt then says that payback is an art in his family, but he's never enjoyed it until now. The next day, Chris is paged to the patient room where Grace was murdered. When he gets there, it's Eve. She makes a remark about killers wanting to return to the scene of the crime. Chris doesn't know what she's talking about. Eve then accuses Chris of killing Grace - he denies it, saying he had no reason. She says that Chris freaked out about Grace overhearing them. Chris says that Eve is out of her mind - he made up that alibi to cover her butt as well. She says that he did it because he killed Devlin, too. Chris grabs Eve's arms and says that she isn't going to pin a murder on him. He then lets go and starts laughing - says she's better than he thought. He accuses her of acting, saying she was pretending to be all emotional and scared because she's all alone with a murderer (as he says this, he casually drapes his stethoscope around his neck - a thinly-veiled threat, and kind of spooky). He says it's a terrific act. Eve then says it's not an act - he responds by saying if she really thought he was a killer she would be too afraid to confront him like that (true). He thinks that she did it and the only way for her to stay out of jail is for her to keep her mouth shut. Says that if anything happens to him, a letter will be found that says that he wasn't with Eve Lambert the night that she killed Bennett Devlin. Eve counters by saying if anything happens to her everyone will know that he lied. They're back where they started - keeping this between the two of them - she'll keep their secret. Eve then says if she finds out he had anything to do with Grace or Devlin's murder she will throw him in the frying pan. His response - "Ditto". Matt Karen walks in and finds Matt in the on call room alone. He tells her that Grace's parents rented the Recovery Room for Grace's wake, and that her father made a special point to call him and invite him. Matt blames himself - he thinks that if he had kept his mouth shut and not broken up with her, he and Grace would have gone to the circus together and it wouldn't have happened. Karen says that he doesn't know that - the killer might have been waiting for Grace. Matt says that intellectually he knows that but not in his heart. He wishes he had done something differently. -Kristi Co-VP, DOC C&Enthusiasts ***************************************************************************** "Keep a scalpel in your laboratory, a shredder near your files, and don't tell the Feds your data caught fire" B.A. 1996 The George Washington University M.F.S. 1999 ***************************************************************************** My home page: http://gwis2.circ.gwu.edu/~kbeale
