*~*Happy 19th Wedding Anniversary to Wayne Northrop and Lynn Herring!!!*~*

Sorry this is a day late but after writing it by hand I did not have the energy to type it in!

Today's Storylines...
Courtney and Lucy's $10,000 deal
Lookin' For a Loophole!
Nobody knows what she went through!
Karen and Christina's Firehouse Adventures!

Courtney and Lucy's $10,000 deal

Frank, Neil and Courtney are at the Recovery Room. Neil goes to play pinball (I must say this guy has excellent choice in games!!!). While he is playing, Courtney asks Frank if he is okay. Kinda he says but "it's a little weird knowing that I got shot 10 feet from where we are sitting..." Not believing this is what is really buggin' Frank, Courtney tries again. he finally admits to her that he is just getting used to being Neil's dad and finding out he has a daughter is a little bit overwhelming. He tells Courtney that he wants this to work out and that if Chrissy is happy at Scott and Lucy's maybe that is where she should stay.

I just have to say that I love and adore Frank's concept of sharing! Maybe Julie could get a clue on how to do that from him....

Neil, bless his heart, pipes up and I have to quote him here! Because the way Colton James said this made my heart melt! says:
"You know what I think? I think you guys should tell Christina who her parents are. Or else one day she is going to be really confused. As soon as she is old enough I am going to tell her that I am her brother!"

We cut to Lucy and Scott at the firehouse. Lucy is holding Chrissy and is still very mad at Scott for what he did. When he tries to kiss Lucy she backs away! She asks him if he is going out. He says yes and snarkily asks if she is okay with that. Being the only honest one, Lucy tells Scott that no but the most important thing to her right now is Chrissy.

After Scott leaves Lucy tells Chrissy that she is going to take care of her forever and always. Later, Karen comes over to take care of Chrissy. Lucy tells Karen that she only trusts family with the little sweet pea and since Charlene had to take Serena to school and had a doctor appointment that Karen was her last hope.

Karen defends Scott and says he did it with the best of intentions. Surprisingly, to your updater, Lucy agrees but they just have to fix it.
At the park Lucy and Courtney discuss what to do about Chrissy. Lucy asks what it would take to get Frank to side with her and Scott. Knowing he already does, Courtney tells Lucy that she can arrange it. Lucy pulls out an envelope with $10,000 and says that there is more where that came from if she can get Frank to admit publicly that he sides with Lucy and Scott.

Lookin' For a Loophole

Julie cheerfully questions that Lucy has no rights to Christina. The lawyer goes on to explain that Scott is legally her adoptive father. But the thing that will not work in his favor is being fancy with the paper work. He warns them to be on their best behavior!

Nobody knows what she went through!

Eve and Claire argue about keeping her alive. Claire wants off of dialysis now! Eve says no she will not take her off.

Later Claire and Scott argue about him refusing to help her. She brings up the painful subject of Dominique. Claire accuses him of not wanting to go through all of that again. But she is going through it.

He tells her that no one knows what she (Dom) went through.

At the gazebo, Scott remembers a time when he and Dom talked after they found out she was sick and dying. Very touching!!!
