01/08/1996 Mateo Asks Taylor To Lunch



"Taylor told Matt that the gun he found in her desk was not part of some conspiracy on her part. She reminded him of the gun she took from him, Noah's gun in fact, and said that she hadn't had the chance to dispose of it yet. So, if Matt wanted to, she continued, he could take the gun to Jack and Derek, but instead of clearing Noah it would only show premeditation on his part. Matt finally believed Taylor and ended up inviting her out to lunch at the Insomniac Cafe. Hayley yelled at Cecily for not wanting to work late. Cecily reminded Hayley that she had a wedding under 24 hours and didn't want to curl up at night with proprosals and transcripts. Hayley's temper flared even more when "Sess" asked how things turned out with Mateo. In the middle of the yelling Charlie walked in and managed to cool things off. So Hayley and the soon-to-be-weds headed off for a bite to eat. Yes, you guessed it, at the Insomniac Cafe. Hayley went to look for a waitress, but in turn found Matt and Taylor sitting together in the corner of the cafe. Jason continued his complaining ways, asking Tad (and Liza at the station) if he knew his wife was best friend and fashion consultant with a "Flaming Queer." Tad, who has no idea Mike was gay, came to Michael's defense and ordered Jason to chill out, but Jason wasn't about to listen. Dixie came scrambling in a few minutes later to ask Tad to help out Michael. She said that he could go on the Cutting Edge and rally people behind Michael, but Liza was all too happy to remind Dixie that as a journalist, Tad must be impartial. Tad blasted Dixie for not telling him that Michael was gay because all this time he thought that Michael had the hots for Dixie. Dixie couldn't believe that Tad was being stubborn and ignorant, so she told him that she was going to be out late making plans to help Michael keep his job and that he would have to watch the kids. When Tad refused due to his heavy workload, Dixie stormed out. Tad realized that it was his reponsibility to look after the kids so he invited Liza back to his house for some late night work. Trevor told Julia that she'd better keep calm and end her angression towards Taylor or it might backfire on Noah. But he did have an idea. If Julia could somehow rattle Taylor's nerves and make her break, it might get Noah out of jail. At Myrtle's, Gloria encouraged Michael to take legal action against the school for suspending him without reason, but Michael said that he doesn't have senority and is only recognized as a temporary teacher so he really can't take action. Laurel paged Trevor to have him meet her in Michael's classroom where she filled him in on the day's events. People like Trevor, Laurel told her husband, resulted in her brother losing his job. Trevor admitted that he isn't thrilled that Michael is gay, but said he's a great teacher and shouldn't have been fired. It's only a matter of time before Laurel asks Trevor to defend her brother against the schoolboard." - Soap Central
