Wednesday, January 22, 1997

At the Cedar's Ball Reva and Billy and Jean Luc and Dinah are doing the Tango. Both couples are dancing all over the floor very suggestively. Everyone is standing back and watching them. Billy asks Reva if she isn't dancing with the wrong Lewis. She says that he is dancing with the woman he wants to for the evening why shouldn't she dance with his brother. They continue dancing while Josh and Annie look on.

They are looking around the bedroom and talking.

Back to the Ball ...Reva and Billy and Dinah and Jean Luc are still dancing. Everyone is watching and making comments.

As Jean Luc dips Dinah, Marcus asks her if she hasn't had enough to drink. She says that she has just begun.

Abby tells Rick that she can't believe that Reva is acting like this. He says that she is like this all the time – it has just been awhile.

Josh shakes his head and says to himself "what the hell are you doing Reva."

Bridget tells Nola to look at Dinah – she is making a fool of herself. She says that Dinah is self destructing before their very eyes.

The dance is over and Jean Luc grabs Dinah and swings her around. When he sits her down she almost falls. Hart starts to walk over to help her. Jean Luc swings her around away from Hart. Hart walks away.

Reva asks Billy if Josh was watching. He asks her if that was the purpose of this whole thing. She says it was. He tells her that he is tired and he is going to sit this one out. She says she is going to have to find another dance partner, isn't she? She grabs Griffin and pulls him on the dance floor.

Josh is watching Reva. He starts to walk over to her. Annie sees this and pretends to faint. He grabs her.

Zachary and Michelle are at the lighthouse and hear someone is in distress. Zachary says that he has to get the light working. Michelle says she wants to help. He tells her to try to make radio contact with the coast guard.

Jenna is on the terrace and sees Buzz standing there by himself. She asks him to go inside where it is warm so they can talk. He asks her what there is to say. Jenna asks if Buzz still cares for Reva. She says she doesn't blame him, Reva certainly knows how to command a room. He says that it is harder to get over than he thought it would be. Jenna thanks him for not lying to her. She says that it wouldn't have done any good anyway – she could tell by the way he looked at her. Jeffrey comes outside to get Jenna. He says that he hopes he hasn't forgot the promise she made to him to save the last dance for him. She says no, she hasn't forgotten. They go inside. Buzz is left alone on the terrace.

Back inside, the dancers are doing the Macarena. Reva is right in the middle with Billy. Harley is complaining to Frank that Reva is showing off. She is going to hurt Buzz. Frank tells her not to pull a "Harley" on him. Don't make a scene. She says that there is no way she is going to blow her cover for Reva, no matter how much she is ticking her off. She tells him that the insurance company she works for covers half the women at the party. She says that there has been a rash of jewel thefts the last year or two and it is her job to make sure there aren't any more. Frank tells her that this is his town and his precinct and she is to tell him if she notices anything suspicious. She agrees. She also tells him that he can stop giving her advice about Reva, it is there father they are talking about. Buzz is sitting alone on the Terrace.

Reva and Billy are still dancing. Lillian walks through the crowd and talks to Rick. Rick and Mike Bauer follow her back through the crown past Reva. Reva says that she didn't know the music had stopped, where was everyone going. Billy says that he thinks something is going on.

Josh is sitting on the steps with Annie in his arms. He is patting her cheek trying to wake her up. He succeeds and she asks what happened. He tells her. Rick, Mike Bauer, Charles Grant, and Lillian approach. They tell her that she has to be careful with fainting spells. She needs to take care of herself.

Reva and Billy are watching. Reva says that Annie has half of Cedar's medical staff in attendance. With that crack medical team – they could put Humpty Dumpty together again, couldn't they? She is fine, Reva says. She says that she is going to go powder her nose and when she comes back he better be ready to rock and roll.

Reva is in the bathroom. Harley enters. Harley tells her that Reva has hurt her father terribly. She closes and locks the door and tells Reva that no one is coming in until she tells Reva just what she thinks of her. She says that she has only been there 24 hours and already Reva's name is everywhere. She says that Reva hasn't changed a bit – she is still haunting the men she's loved so they can't get on with their lives. Reva tells her that the last few years have been hard for her – being dead isn't as relaxing as it sounds. Harley says she doesn't care. Reva says that Harley used to care. She took care of her babies and Josh when she got sick. Harley says that isn't the point, they are talking about her father. She says Reva can't continue to hurt her father and get away with it. Reva says that that had nothing to do with Buzz. She was trying to have a good time. Harley told her that everybody knew she was trying to get to Josh. Reva says that Harley's tantrum isn't about Buzz at all, is it. It is about the three of them, Reva, Harley and Josh.

Josh and Annie are sitting at the table. He puts his coat over her. He leaves the table. Phillip approaches and tells Josh that Reva went to the powder room. Josh says that he is going to get his wife a glass of water. Phillip asks Annie how she is doing and then goes to the family table.

Alan-Michael tells Alan that now that Phillip is there, what does he want. Alan says that they have to put their heads together about Roger and Amanda. Alan-Michael says that he is not ready for war. He says that he is not in it. He and Lucy leave the table.

Roger and Amanda are searching Alex's bedroom. The maid comes in to bring towels. Roger and Amanda hide in the closet.

Michelle tells Zachary that the radio won't work. He tells her that he is going out in his boat to save the people. He tells her to get Rick and everybody she can find to help. He tells her to have Rick get the light working. He leaves.

Jeffrey asks Meta to dance. Jenna approaches Blake and Ross and Holly and Fletcher. She speaks to them briefly. After she walks away Ross observed that she had on a very expensive necklace. She didn't have that kind of money when she left town, did she? They speculate she must have landed on her feet.

Alan tells Alan-Michael to sit down. He says you can't be President of Spaulding and keep your hands clean. Alan-Michael says that he always thought that you could do that if you didn't wallow in the mud with the wrong people. Alan says Roger and Amanda will steal them blind if they don't watch it. Alan-Michael tells them that he and Lucy are planning to leave Springfield. He then takes Lucy to the dance floor to dance. Alan tells Phillip to do something. Phillip answers that it is probably the smartest thing Alan-Michael has done in his life.

Reva and Harley are still arguing. Reva says that she knows that Josh left Harley to look for Reva. Reva says that she understands why Harley is mad. She tells her that her mamma told her all about how Harley took care of Josh and the children after she "died." She said that she knows that Billy came along and told Josh he had seen Reva and Josh took off to find her. Reva tells her that Harley can hate her for that, but she didn't make Josh leave. Reva reminds Harley has found the love of her life. She says that she and Buzz weren't that lucky. Reva says that she didn't leave Buzz because she wanted to run back to Josh, she left him because she respects him too much to make a fool of him. She didn't want to hurt him anymore. Harley asks about Josh and Annie. Reva says that what happens with their marriage is beyond her control. She admits that she still loves him, and that it tears her apart to see him with Annie. Harley tells her that the old Reva would have gone after whatever she wanted. Reva says she hopes she is not that selfish anymore. She tells her that she walked away from a very loving man; and, no matter what Harley thinks about her she is not about to mess up the life of some man whose wife is about to have a baby.

Josh brings Annie water. Annie says that she is embarrassed. Josh tells her that she has to start taking care of herself. She says that she will. She asks him to dance with her.

Dinah and Hart are arguing on the Terrace. He tells her that she is making a spectacle of herself. He says that he was happy when it was the two of them by themselves. She says that he promised to give her lifestyle a chance. She says that he just wants to keep her on the farm. She accuses him of being a control freak like his father.

Roger and Amanda are still in the closet until the maid leaves. Roger says they are going about this all wrong. He says that maybe Amanda should tell him what she thinks they should do.

Alex is talking to Matt and telling him that there is no finer tribute to Vanessa than to dedicate the new wing of the hospital to her memory. Matt tells her that the family is very proud. Alex says that family is a very important thing. She is telling him how the dedication ceremony will go. She says that she will present the check to him for the new wing and asks him to say a few words.

Matt runs into Buzz. Buzz hands him a drink. Matt asks him what you can say when you've lost the woman that you love? Buzz tells him that there is nothing you can say, no one will understand anyway.

Reva and Harley are still talking. Harley asks her if she cares for her father. Reva says that Buzz is a very loving man and she does care for him. She says that Buzz married her when she needed him to, and that is why she can't stay with him. She doesn't want to hurt him anymore. Harley tells her that she didn't realize any of this. Reva tells Harley that she has lost her mother. Harley says that she did too. Reva says she missed so much with her mother. She tells Harley that even though she lives far away she has to look out for her daddy – for both of them. They hug.

Roger starts kissing Amanda on the neck. She tells him they should get back to work.

Everybody is enjoying the dance. Alan tells Alex he is ready to go home. She says that they can't leave until the dedication ceremony is over.

Bridget asks Marcus if he has seen Hart. They look around for him. Dinah walks in and proclaims to everyone in a very loud voice that Hart Jessop is a big party pooper.

Michelle rushes in to get Rick. She says that there is a boat sinking and Zachary is out on the lake. She says they have to get to him or he could die. She looks at Rick and her eyes plead with him to help.
