Episode #154

Theresa is dreaming about Ethan. They are in bed and he is telling her that he loves her. He said that when he asked her to try on the ring that he was going to buy for Gwen, he didn't realize that she was the one that he really loved. He said that he knew when it didn't come off that it was fate. Pilar is in the kitchen cooking breakfast when Luis enters. He wants to tell Pilar about his date with Sheridan, but she had already heard about it at the Crane mansion. She said that Julian and Alastair were not happy about it, and neither was she. Luis can't understand why his mother doesn't want him to date Sheridan. He thought that she liked her. She said that she wanted them to be friends, but that anything more would cause trouble. She said that Julian sees Luis as a threat to the family. She said that the Cranes would never forgive or forget how he tried to bring them down. She said that the Cranes would do whatever it took to prevent an alliance between Luis and Sheridan. He tells her that they already tried to offer him a bribe, and that he probably should have taken it. Pilar said that he did the right thing, but that the Cranes wouldn't stop at that. Theresa is still dreaming. She tells Ethan that the only thing that she always wanted was to marry him. He tells her that they must tell her family. She says that she can't tell Luis because he would never allow her to marry him. She suddenly wakes up and sees the ring on her finger. She says that Luis must never see the ring. Pilar said that she was also concerned about Hank. Luis said that he realized that he and Sheridan had a lot it common. Luis knocks on Theresa's door, but she doesn't answer so he enters. He tries to wake her up and sees the ring. He demands to know where she got the ring. Pilar comes in and wants to know what all the excitement is about. He tells Pilar that Theresa is wearing an engagement ring. Luis then decides that the ring is not real. He said that only a Crane could afford a rock like that. When Luis leaves, Pilar asks Theresa about the ring. She tells Pilar that Ethan asked her to try on the ring, and it wouldn't come off. She said that fate had kept that ring on her finger. She said that they had tried everything to get the ring off, but that it wouldn't budge. Pilar tries to get the ring off, but fails. Pilar tells her that she can't wear that ring to the mansion, because Gwen would see it and murder her and that would be her fate. Julian and Ivy are sitting in the living room at the Crane mansion when Sheridan enters. Julian asks her how her farewell date with Luis went. She accuses Julian of offering Luis a bribe, but he didn't take it. Julian can't believe that Luis would turn down their offer. Sheridan said that Julian just wanted to get Luis out of town so that he could no longer investigate the disappearance of his father, and so that he could also stay away from her. Julian says that Luis is not being noble, he is just holding out for a better offer. Sheridan told Julian that she had finally found a man who the Cranes couldn't buy off. She tells Ivy that she has grown fond of Luis.Julian tells Sheridan that she is a fool. She said that she would have been a fool if she had ended things like they had suggested. She said that she had finally found a decent man. Sheridan finally gets Julian to admit that he tried to bribe Luis to stay away from her. Julian said that they only wanted to thank Luis for saving her life. He said that when Luis hurts her, he doesn't want her to come crawling back again. He then leaves. Ivy tells Sheridan that she thinks that Julian is wrong about Luis.She tells her that if she loves him, don't let him go. She said that she had made mistakes in the past and had lost someone precious in her life. She said that she had sold her soul to the devil. She said that she let her parents and Alastair talk her into marrying Julian. She tells Sheridan not to follow the same path that she had chosen. Grace and Sam are packing for their ski trip. Sam gets a little frisky and wants to start their romantic vacation pronto. Charity is staring into a cup and has a flashback to when she had the premonition about Miguel's death. Hank enters and asks her what she is doing. He tells her that the gypsies say that the leaves never lie. Charity says that that can't be true. Hank asks her if she saw something in the leaves that upset her. She starts to tell him, but then Grace and Sam enter. Sam asks Hank and Eve to keep an eye on things while they are gone. Sam asks Hank about Sheridan. He said that he knew that she had gone out with Luis. He said that they always had a friendly rivalry. He said that he was going to knock Luis out of the running once and for all. Grace asks Charity if something is wrong. She tells Grace that she had been having premonitions and that they had scared her. She said that she saw Miguel dead. Grace tells her that the premonitions might just be a form of anxiety due to losing her mother. Charity says that Reese said that premonitions usually run in families. She asks Grace if she had ever had any. Grace said that she had, but she had never really understood what they meant. She said that Faith had them and always felt the presence of evil.

Tabitha has made a new leg for Timmy and she tells him that it would be better than the old one. Tabitha wants to do something to make it up to him. He tells her that the only thing that he wanted was for her to promise never to hurt Charity by giving Miguel poisoned tea. He said that Charity would be really hurt if Miguel died because she really loved him. Tabitha said that if Miguel lives, he will always protect Charity. Timmy said that that was a good thing because they loved each other. She tells Timmy that it would be a bad thing for them because once Charity comes into her full powers it would be the destruction of them. Timmy suggests that they move away to some other place and start a new life away from Fluffy and Charity. He said that maybe they could find a place without evil. He said that Tabitha may even find someone who loves her as much as Miguel loves Charity. She tells Timmy that it is either Charity or them. She said that she would not give in to her softer feelings. He tells her that deep down she is a real sweetie. She tells him that if her friends downstairs heard this, there would be hell to pay. He tells her that if they were really her friends then they would give her her powers back.She told him that he was right that they were making her earn her powers. She tells him that if it weren't for her friends down below, she would give it all up in a second.
