Episode #193

Julian tells Ivy that there is no bird statue, and even if there was, he would have destroyed it long ago. Ivy refuses to believe him and reminds him of the legendary phoenix, which rose up out of the ashes. She says maybe that bird will show up soon as well. Sheridan calls to talk to Ethan but he's not home so she talks to Julian and he tells her she did the right thing by going back to Paris. He reminds her of how Luis used her and hangs up. Ivy scolds him for what he did to Sheridan too. He says he did what he had to do to protect the family. Ivy leaves and calls the Harmony Herald to place a want ad about the bird statue. TC mentions the "puzzle" he and Simone were trying to take apart, and then says it was a bird statue. Eve is shocked and when he goes to look for it, she thinks that it can't be the same one she destroyed. Orville appears on the doorstep to thank Eve for setting him up at the retirement home. She tells him that the bird still may exist and he says that would be real bad. Eve gets more and more hysterical as TC looks everywhere for the bird statue. Meanwhile, the garbage man takes the statue away. TC comes back down and says he couldn't find the bird. Orville starts singing and Eve says it must be time for him to go back to the retirement home. Julian calls Eve and tells her not to give in to Ivy's harassing, and Eve tells him that maybe the bird statue wasn't destroyed after all. Julian tells her to keep looking and to call him the minute she finds it. At the Harmony garbage dump, a homeless man is digging around through the garbage and finds the bird statue. He takes it, saying he could probably get the price of a six-pack for it. Luis is working on his computer when Hank comes in and asks why he isn't at the youth center. Luis says he has a lot of work to do, but Hank doesn't believe him. He says that when Sheridan was there, Luis was always at the youth center, and now that Sheridan is gone, Luis hasn't been back there once. Hank says Luis has too many memories of Sheridan there and that's why he isn't going back. Luis says he can't miss Sheridan because she's gone and it's no use missing someone you'll never see again. Hank says Luis is also talking about his father who left and never came back. Hank says that must mean that Luis was in love with Sheridan. Luis says he liked Sheridan more than any woman he's met in a long time, but love is a little strong. He says Sheridan probably hasn't given him a second thought, and maybe he should find a local girl that he has more in common with. He finishes his paperwork, and he and Hank go out for coffee. Right after they leave, a fax comes in from Interpol about how the French police are looking for anyone connected to Jean-Luc. Roger and Pierre are cleaning up at Jean-Luc's apartment, and Pierre wonders why Sheridan hasn't called. Roger says don't worry, she will, and they leave. Sheridan arrives at her old apartment and thinks about Luis when she finds the compact he gave her. A maid comes in with flowers to welcome Sheridan back, and asks why Sheridan is so sad--did she get her heart broken in America? Sheridan says that American men are very deceiving, but she has had her heart broken before. The maid says that Sheridan is strong and it will be all right. She leaves and Sheridan calls Jean-Luc (right after Roger and Pierre leave) and leaves a message on his answering machine. After calling home and talking to Julian, she goes out on the balcony and wonders why she is in Paris, the city of lovers. She remembers some of the great times she had with Luis, but then says that things will be different...she won't ever be involved with men like Jean-Luc and Luis again. Roger and Pierre return and get Sheridan's message on Jean-Luc's answering machine. They plot to kill Sheridan before she finds out that Jean-Luc is dead. Chad and Ethan are watching the basketball game and they talk a little bit about Gwen. Chad asks what it's like to be in love and Ethan says it's great. Ethan says that Chad seems to like Whitney Russell, but Chad says they are too different. Ethan says that shouldn't matter...if he liked someone from a different social status, he'd date her. He says even though he and Gwen are both upper-class, they have their ups and downs. He explains the time that Gwen was jealous of another girl. The game is at half-time and Ethan and Chad head out to get some food. At the ski lodge, Whitney is still mad at Theresa for forgetting about the reservations, but Theresa says the Crane cabin will make up for it. She also promises to not think about Ethan at all...by the time they get back, Theresa won't even know who Ethan is...even though no one could ever compare to him. Theresa asks Whitney about Chad, but Whitney says there's nothing going on. She says that this weekend will at least get her away from Chad. They take a cab to the cabin, and Whitney agrees that it is wonderful. Theresa goes to the fireplace and remembers the weekend she spent with Ethan. Whitney picks up a picture of Ethan and Gwen and shows it to Theresa. She says that this is who Ethan is marrying, so Theresa should get over it. Theresa agrees and they decide to go take showers before their big sleep over. Ethan and Chad return with pizza and beer and start watching the game. Suddenly, Ethan notices that some lights are on that he had turned off and the picture of him and Gwen has been moved. He tells Chad there is someone else in the cabin, and they shut off all the lights. They hear a noise coming from the bathrooms, so they each stand on one side of the doorway. Theresa and Whitney come out of the showers with towels wrapped around them, and Theresa hears a noise. She says someone else is here and they go to check it out. When they get to the living room, Chad grabs Whitney and pulls her away. He accidentally pulls off her towel and sees everything! Meanwhile, Ethan grabs Theresa and throws her on the couch, landing on top of her.
