Episode #188

The show starts off where it left off where Theresa just agreed with Ethan to work with him on the wedding in the mansion while Gwen is away. Theresa said well, that's what Gwen wants right? Ethan said right, so let's coordinate your school schedule with my work schedule so we can maximize the time we have to work on the wedding. Theresa said yes we should make the most of time we have together. Ethan notices Whitney standing in the doorway and tells her about Theresa agreeing to work with him at the mansion and Whitney said (sarcastically) oh, how great is that? Then the phone rings Ethan goes to answer it. He leaves the room to talk on the phone and Whitney says Theresa are you totally nuts? I thought you agreed not to work with him. Theresa said well, this is Gwen's idea. Whitney says, yeah but your still in love with him, You have to work on this wedding at your house. Gwen walks in and says I can't believe what I just heard (we don't know what she heard). Gwen says did I just hear correctly? Theresa says what exactly did you hear? Gwen says didn't you promise me Theresa that you were going to help me plan the wedding when I am gone? She says I am. Gwen says what was Whitney saying again about you working at home? Whitney says I was just concerned that Theresa was going to put her school work on the back burner. Theresa says that won't happen she figured out a way to take care of everything. Gwen says so it's all settled? Theresa says absolutely not problem. Ethan walks in and Gwen says she is so happy that Theresa is going to help with the wedding while she is away. Ethan says which is sooner than later I'm afraid. Your office just called they pushed up your schedule. Gwen says well, I already sent my things ahead so all I have to do is go get on a flight. Gwen says well I'm leaving you in good hands. Gwen again thanks Theresa for all the work she has already done on the wedding. Ethan says so is this it? all I get to say good-bye? Gwen says Well, when I get back you will get a long and proper hello and she kisses him. Theresa turns away and looks upset. Whitney says you can't keep putting yourself through this kind of torture and sooner or later Ethan is going to figure out that, that portfolio is for yours and his wedding and his and Gwen's. Gwen and Ethan stop kissing and Gwen says I have to get going and thanks Theresa again for helping out. Theresa says sure no problem. Gwen and Ethan leave the room. Whitney says this moment marks the end of Theresa Lopez Fitzgerald. Grace says to Sam at day at the spa you are to good to me. She say's what is the occasion? He says it's a just because I love you occasion. Grace walks away and Sam says to himself I love you Grace and only you. Then we see Ivy appear behind a curtain. She says oh, no Sam you still love me I know you do and pretty soon you will know it too. Back at the spa a spa worker named Shelly talks to Grace about what she wants to have done at the spa. Grace tells the Shelley that her husband set up the whole day for her and Shelley says oh that's a good one don't let him get away. She says I'm not letting Sam go anywhere. Shelley says well, be careful I know about this woman Maureen and her husband cheated on her and it sent her over the edge. Grace says you mean Maureen Allen? The talk about her and Ivy is behind a curtain eavesdropping the whole time. Grace says the woman who Maureen's husband cheated with was just as awful as him and what kind of woman would do something like that? Ivy smiles. Back at the Spa Grace and Shelley continue to talk about Maureen and Shelley says you know your right they are both guilty I say skin them both. Shelley walks away to get some nail polish and she opens up the curtain as she leaves. Then Grace sees Ivy. Grace Ivy? and Ivy says Oh, Grace your here? (acting surprised to see her). Ivy walks over and says what are you doing here? Grace tells Ivy about Sam sending her here for the day. Shelley says do you know Maureen Allen Mrs. Crane? Ivy says no, but is that the same Maureen you ran into at the hospital? Grace says, yeah it's so upsetting. Ivy says the man is a swine. Shelley says what about the other woman? Ivy acts disgusted and says the thought of taking another woman's husband is ..... Sam interrupts and says I'm glad to hear you are as offended of the thought of something like that happening as me. Sam comments on how good Grace looks. Shelley says I'm putting your guy up for husband of the year. Sam says when you have a perfect woman it's easy to be a great husband. Sam says we have to go we have dinner reservations. Grace says bye Ivy I hope to see you soon. Ivy says oh you will and smiles. Sam gets a worried look on his face and he and Grace leave. Sam says Grace you didn't tell Ivy where we were going to dinner tonight did you? She says no, why? Sam says no reason and they leave. Then Ivy asks another Spa worker Inga if Grace told her where Chief Bennett was taking her to dinner? Inga said I think they are going to the Seascape. I heard Grace mention something about the best restaurant in Harmony. Ivy says oh you know what I changed my mind. I think I am going to go out tonight. Let's do something with my hair. Shelley says like what? She says something younger, sexier, something that will make a man remember what I looked like say 20 years ago. Shelley says your husband is going to be one happy camper tonight. Ivy said who? She says Mr. Crane. Ivy says, oh yes. Luis is sitting at the kitchen table looking upset. He remembers when Sheridan slapped him at the youth center and he still can't figure out why she did it. He says what did I do to set Sheridan off like that? I keep going over it over and over. It's just Crazy. Back at the house Pilar walks in as Luis is working on some papers. Pilar notices that the papers are about Martin and she says are you reopening the case. He says no I'm closing the case on papa's imposter. I want to bury this file and never think about it again. Pilar says that was such a horrible night I still have nightmares about it. Luis says I thought it was papa too. He says I don't know if I could have got over the guilt of letting my father die to save Sheridan. Pilar says he did the right thing. he says, but what if it had been him? I would have let my own father die to save someone who is practically a stranger to me. Pilar said because maybe to you she wasn't a stranger maybe it could be because that deep down in your own heart she meant more to you that your own father. Luis just shakes his head. Luis leaves the room to get something for the file and after he leaves Whitney and Theresa walk in. Pilar asks what is wrong? Pilar says is it Ethan? Don't worry you will get over him you just have to be strong ask for god's help if you need to. Luis walks back in and says hi to Theresa and Whitney. Pilar says I have an idea. Luis why don't you use the gift certificate that I won at the church raffle and take Whitney and Theresa to the Seascape? Luis agrees. Theresa and Whitney leave to get ready. Pilar says I hope this dinner take your mind of Sheridan. Luis says I'm just glad the girls are excited about going. In the living room Whitney says to Theresa do you know what the best part about tonight is? Theresa says all the free food? Whitney says not silly it will give you a chance to get your mind off of Ethan and if you are really lucky you will meet some really cute guy at the Seascape and forget all bout Ethan. Theresa slightly smiles like to say she doesn't think that will happen. Julian is still talking to Alistair on the speaker phone. Julian is drinking again (what a surprise). He says your over reacting father. The camera switches to Alistair, we can't see his face though because he is behind a lamp. He slams down his paper and says don't you dare tell me what I am doing! He lifts up his paper and we see he has squished a fly. He continues to tell Julian how careless he was to take photos of Eve Russell. Julian says the photos are destroyed. Alistair says I don't believe in destroyed. Julian tells him about Orville and how they got destroyed. Then we see Alistair take the dead fly and feeds it to his tarantula spider in an aquarium. Julian says again there is no way those pictures survived being burned down in Orville's apartment. Alistair again tells Julian what would happen if those pictures ever surfaced. Julian said they won't. Alistair says if they do he finished. That's the end of Julian in the Crane family and he won't allow him to ruin the Crane empire. Julian says it's all academic. The pictures are kaput. Alistair and Julian talk about how much time it took to break up Luis & Sheridan. Julian says that wasn't my fault. Did I have anything to do with them getting together? Alistair laughs and says that is the one thing that you are not responsible for. Julian says that's unfair. Alistair says what is unfair is my always having to clean up your messes. He says that is all over. He said there will be no more trouble from me. Unlike Sheridan who risked disaster by associating with Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald (then we see Sheridan appear in the doorway). Sheridan says what's this about me and Luis! She says what were you two talking about? What about me and Luis? Julian says father and I were just relieved that you were able to finally see Luis for who he really is. Sheridan says well, I do have to admit I was wrong about Luis and she says again that if she hadn't heard Luis with her own ears she could never have believed he would say the things that he did. Julian flashbacks to when he paid the Luis Imposter for the job and the Imposter ripped off the Luis "mask." Then he says I'm glad you over heard that phone conversation Luis had. Then Sheridan says well I just came to tell you that I am leaving for Europe tomorrow and she asks Alistair sarcastically if he heard her. He said yes dear. Julian and Alistair say It's good your going you always seemed more at home there. Sheridan says will I be seeing you there? He says heavens knows I would love to spend time with you but... She says your busy. I can't remember a time when you weren't busy father and turns and walks toward the door. He says I'm sorry it's just a (Sheridan leaves) meeting I can't postpone. Julian cuts him off and says save it father. Alistair says Julian make sure nothing changes her mind. Julian says it will get done. Alistair says don't say that every time you do something goes wrong. Julian says trust me tomorrow night our Sheridan will be dining a Tour D'argent. Alistair says stay on top of the Eve situation. Make sure those photos were destroyed. We see the bird sitting on a table in Simone's room. TC says Eve come help me try and open this puzzle box it is driving me nuts. T.C. walks into the room from the hallway and just as Eve is about to walk in she gets beeped. She says it is the hospital and she will be right back. They talk about the romantic evening they will have tonight and she leaves. T.C. goes back to trying to open the bird. The bottom of the bird cracks open and he says so what do we have here? Just as he is about to see Eve calls him from downstairs he says yeah honey and walks into the hallway after putting the bird back on Simone's bed. Eve says I'm sorry I'm needed at the hospital. Eve says we are still going to have that romantic evening you can pick me up as soon as you are ready. He says to the bird you have a reprieve I am going to have to see whatever is in you later because I have a date with a beautiful woman. I will get with you later and he sets the bird back on the table. Downstairs at the Crane Mansion: Just as Sheridan is leaving the house Ethan comes down the stairs and says Sheridan your here I have to talk to you. Sheridan says I can't I have to leave. Ethan says Sheridan you can't leave you have to stay here in Harmony. She says you don't ever give up. He says well, this is your home not Paris. She says we have been over this many times and he says and I still don't understand. She says well, I do and that's all that matters. He says well, I miss you what am I going to do without my favorite Aunt? Sheridan says when is Gwen leaving? He says she should be getting on the plane right now. Sheridan says oh these next couple months are going to be hard with her traveling so much he says, well I have a lot of things to do. Plus I have to finish planning the wedding and Gwen arraigned for Theresa to work with me. Sheridan says well at least one of us had good luck with a Lopez-Fitzgerald. Ethan says Luis is still on your mind? Maybe you should go talk to him before you leave? She says no I don't want to ever speak to him again. I don't even want to be in the same room with him. Just then Ivy walks in through the door. Ivy says oh lucky me I won't have to call either one of you and she walks into the living room and calls for Julian. He says you called light of my life. She says yes I want us all to get dressed and go have dinner at the Seascape restaurant tonight. She says I thought we should give Sheridan the proper sendoff. Julian says the Seascape, Ivy? Why? Ivy says well, we can't exactly send her off without a proper good-bye. Ethan says mother, but the Seascape? I'm not so sure Sheridan would want to go there that's where she almost fell through the ceiling and died. Sheridan says it's okay I would love to go. Julian says would you excuse me and he take Ivy away and says I'm not really up for going to dinner tonight I have other things to take care of. Ivy smiles and says well unless you want Sheridan to know that you hired and imposter to break them up you better put on your best toothpaste grin and be a charming host. He says well since you put it that way (he smiles) and they walk back over to Ethan & Sheridan. Ivy says let's go. Sheridan says I have packed all my dresses but I'm sure I could find something. Ethan says I'll go change and they both leave the room. Julian says I know your up to something Ivy and I am going to find out what. he says I know there is a reason you want to go there tonight and it has nothing to do with Sheridan. She says there is a very good reason and you will never find out what it is now go change for dinner. He leaves. Ivy smiles to herself. Ivy is in her closet looking for the perfect dress. She says here it is and she says this will be an evening you will remember for the rest of your life Sam. Sam & Grace walk in he has a tux on and Grace has a black dress. Sam says to himself this is one night Ivy can't ruin and they go to sit at their table. Sam kisses Grace and they sit down. Grace says this has been a perfect day. What could be more romantic? Then the waiters walk over with two vases of red roses. Grace says are those for me and he says with all my love. Grace says Shelley was right you are the most wonderful husband of the year, of the millennium. He says and you are the only woman for me. Next scene Theresa and Whitney walk into the Seascape. Theresa is wearing a pink dress and Whitney is wearing a gray color dress. Theresa remember the last time they were there when their dates got so drunk and Ethan had to take her home. Whitney says don't even start. Then Luis walks in. The maire'd shows Whitney and Theresa to their table. Luis says he has take care of something first. It has to do with the Martin Imposter case so he can close the file. He walks away. Theresa and Whitney are at their table. Whitney says you know what? Four guys noticed you on your way over the table. Theresa says I didn't notice. Whitney said start. This is just what you need. I bet you will meet someone here tonight that will sweep you of your feet and Ethan will be nothing but a distant memory. Theresa says I could never forget about Ethan Whitney says well you have to try to the first steep is being somewhere he isn't. The next scene Ethan & Sheridan are walking into the restaurant. Next scene Grace & Sam are toasting each other and Eve and T.C. walk over to their table and T.C. says now here is a happy couple. They say hi to each other. Sam says he brought Grace here to show here that she is the only woman for him and Eve says well I guess whe're all here with who we are supposed to be with. Next scene Ivy and Julian walk in the Seascape they meet up with Ethan & Sheridan. Ethan tells Ivy that their table will be ready in two minutes and Julian says it's unbelievable that the Cranes have to actually wait for a table. Ivy says it will be worth it, tonight will be unforgettable. Sheridan has a flashback of when Martin kidnapped her and Luis saved her as the Luis Imposter fell through the roof. Ethan says Sheridan if you'd rather not stay just say so. She says no Ivy wants to spend the evening tonight. Ethan says to Sheridan again maybe she should talk to Luis and she said no, it's over. Ethan says well I have ulterior motives if you can get past this thing with Luis maybe you will stay in Harmony. She says no I made up my mind. He says well, I'll miss you. She says I'll miss you too and then she says I have to go outside for a minute. I need some air. He says all right I will meet you at the table. She has another flashback of standing on the roof with Luis just after the Martin Imposter fell through the roof. She leaves. Ethan tells Julian that she will be back in a minute. Julian looks in the restaurant and sees Sam, Grace, Eve & T.C.. Ethan says he is going to go call Gwen and see if she got in all right. He walks in the dinning area and he sees Whitney and Theresa. He says Hi. Ethan said I didn't know you were coming here tonight. Whitney says I can't believe you guys keep running into each other. Ethan says she is right I guess we just can't seem to keep away from each other. Theresa smiles. He says it's so odd we keep running into each other. Theresa says it's serendipity. He say's yeah like a happy accident. She says are you here alone? He says no and says he is with Sheridan and his mother and father. Theresa says when is Sheridan leaving Harmony and he says tomorrow. He says I will miss her terribly. Theresa says I know some people who will miss her too. Ethan says well, I have to go call Gwen and see if she got in all right. Theresa says yeah Gwen. Ethan turns to walk away. He comes back and says Theresa would you save a dance for me for later. She says sure. He says good because I really enjoyed the one we had last time we were here. She says me too. He leaves. Whitney sighs in disgust. She says it is unbelievable that he would be here the same time you were. there says it's serendipity. Whitney says you know what I never heard you use that word before. She says it's in this new book I have been reading. Whitney says do you even know what it means? She says yes like Ethan said it means a happy accident. Whitney says yes an accident, a fluke don't read anything more into it than that. Whitney says I know exactly what your thinking "it's fate." Theresa says I know you hate that word Whitney, but the fact is we came here to find some guy to take mind off Ethan but he shows up here. I'm going to call it what it is fate capital F-A-T-E fate and she smiles. Julian and Ivy continues looking at the Bennett/Russell table and they both say I'll be right back and leave. Eve comments on how funny it is that everytime the go to do something they run into Sam & Grace and Sam says well great minds think alike. Eve gets beeped she says it's the hospital and Grace tries to dial on her cellphone and says the battery is dead so she leaves to use a pay phone and Grace goes with her. T.C. and Grace talk about how glad they are Eve didn't tell Grace about Sam and Ivy and Sam tells T.C. about Maureen and what bad timing that is with their current predicament. T.C. says I know when I think about what Chad said about Julian and my wife I feel like I want to rip Julian's heart out. The leave to go find Eve. The next scene Eve is using the pay phone and someone comes up from behind her and touches her on the neck she smiles thinking it is T.C. It's Julian and he starts kissing her. He says I want you right here right now. She says Julian! Sam can't find Grace and he goes to the coast closet to look for Grace's jacket. Ivy comes up behind him and he tries to get away from her she grabs him and they both fall into a coat rack and land on the floor with Ivy on top of him. Ivy smiles. The next scene Grace comes walking around the corner. Looking for Sam. Then we see Sheridan on the roof by the skylight that the fake Martin fell through. It's been fixed and she is thinking back to when the imposter fell through. Then she turns around and Luis is behind her. He says I guess we both have some unfinished business. She says yes. He says it is better you finish alone and he starts to leave. She says Luis wait no. He says what for? She says there is something I need to tell you before I leave for Paris. The credits roll.....
