06/14/2002 A Vistit From Count DuPres




"Adam talked with Mia at the Valley Inn dining room. Unknown to Mia, Adam is involving her in his plot against Liza to get revenge for taking money from Chandler Enterprises. He told Mia he is afraid for Colby and that he needs Mia to help protect Colby from Liza's problem. He wanted Mia to keep Colby safe and offered to pay her a retainer. He wanted her to quit her job at the hospital. Jake interrupts their dinner and greeted Mia with a kiss. Mia seemed unsettled with Jake in front of Adam. Adam decided to leave them alone, hoping Mia will tell Jake goodbye and quit her job.

Jake asked Mia what Adam wanted. Mia told him it was none of his business and that she can handle Adam. Jake disagreed with her and cautioned her about Adam's deceptions. "Adam uses people outside his marriage to fix what's wrong in it," Jake told Mia. He told her to wake up to Adam's tricks. Jake tried to convince Mia she is out of Adam's league and that he loved her and didn't want to see her get sucked into Adam's plots. Mia countered by telling Jake she will respect his feelings when he respects hers. She then left the dining room.

David visited Liza at Chandler Mansion and reminded her of their contract to develop a life saving drug. Liza tried to convince David the contract isn't valid as she signed it when she had her brain tumor. Liza no longer wanted to do business with David. David told her the contract is very valid and he will take her to court if necessary to prove it. Liza grabbed the contract from David's hand and shoved it down the front of his pants telling him to put it "where the sun doesn't shine." David was amused by her actions and commented on her being in rare form. Liza taunted David that he only cured Dixie for his personal gain and that bringing the drug to market using Chandler Enterprises to fund his project was for his ego. They continued to snipe at each other until Adam entered the room. Liza told Adam she believed the R&D contract was not valid as she signed it when she had her brain tumor. David countered it is valid and binding and Adam agreed with David. David, having nothing more to say, left Chandler Mansion. Liza was livid with Adam for siding with David. She was humiliated she told him. In frustration, Liza left the room, leaving Adam to smile gleefully as he clapped his hands. He called his attorney, Barry, and demanded he research paternal custody agreements. His conversation with Barry was interrupted by a cell phone call and he quickly took it. After hearing what the caller had to say he demanded why he wasn't told.

Leo and Greenlee continued to enjoy their stay in Paris. Greenlee wondered if Leo called David as he promised, doubting that he really would. Leo surprised her and said he did call David but he wasn't at the hospital. Jake took a message and promised David would call back. They talked about going out on the hotel balcony to enjoy the Parisian music being played below in the plaza. Trey, hiding on the balcony after placing a bug in their telephone in the suite, realized that he will be caught so he jumped over the railing. Inside the suite, Greenlee heard a noise and wondered aloud to Leo what it could be. Leo shrugged it off and they retired for the night.

Greenlee woke up in the morning and found Leo wasn't there sleeping next to her. She wondered where he had gone. She believed he was out looking for his father. The door to the hotel room opened and Leo entered carrying a breakfast tray with goodies. He tantalized her by holding up a velvet box and told her it was a present. The box contained three diamonds on a gold chain. One diamond for yesterday, one for today and one for tomorrow. Greenlee was enchanted with the necklace and quickly put it on. She told Leo, "you and me forever." Leo replied, "You saved me." They kissed.

Greenlee, pleased with her gift from Leo told Leo she had something lacey to show him but she is saving it for the wedding. They teased each other as Greenlee opened the door to the bedroom. There was a knock at the door. Leo opened the door and was surprised to see Count duPres standing there. Leo asked why he was there. The Count told Leo he had done much research and realized that there may be some truth to Leo being his son. He told Leo it is possible he is Leo's real father. Leo's jaw dropped. The Count suggested having a DNA test done.

Ryan, worried about where Kendall might be, called Anna to see if she was with her. Finding out that Kendall wasn't he wondered where she was. He flashed back to Kendall's telling him she was born bad and his declaration of love for her. He became frustrated when he couldn't find out where Kendall had run off to and threw an object at the wall in his motel room. He found a perfume bottle belonging to Kendall and sprayed some on his hand, the fragrance reminded him of the times he shared with Kendall.

Erica visited Mona's grave and told her "it happened again, Mom." She confessed she was scared. So many things have gone wrong and right. They all have molded together and she couldn't get them apart. Kendall had told her she didn't set the fire and Erica wasn't sure if she was telling the truth. The evidence pointed at Kendall. Erica thanked Mona for "special ordering" Chris. He is just what she needed. Chris appeared at the cemetery and offered to take Erica home. He tried to explain about the letter from Gail and that he had to get it to Ryan right away so he would know the truth about his mother. She wasn't the horrible person he thought she was and that she did love him and Chris very much. Erica, knowing that Gail is dead, accepted Chris's offered to take him home as it began to thunder.

As soon as Erica and Chris left the cemetery, Kendall appeared at Mona's grave. She called Ryan on her cell phone and asked him to come get her. The thunder continued as Ryan arrived at the cemetery. Finding Kendall he held her face in his hands. He was relieved he had found her. Kendall told Chris she finally got it. She confessed she didn't want Ryan to know she was so lost and that she couldn't make anyone love her. Ryan asked her what now. Kendall wanted to know if Ryan really believed in her and that she is not evil. She implored him to tell her he loves her. It began to rain. Ryan proclaimed his love to Kendall. "I love her heart and soul. I need you in my life," he continued. "Marry me, Kendall!"

At the Valley Inn, Erica apologized to Chris for her behavior and doubting his love for her as well as her jealousy regarding Gail. She asked for his forgiveness. She admitted she needs him. He put his arms around her to comfort her. Erica and Chris retired to the bedroom to sleep but Erica was restless as she dreamt about the fire. Erica awoke and wondered what was Kendall still doing in the house while it was burning. What if Kendall didn't start the fire?

Trey woke up in a hospital in Paris with bruises, cuts, a sprained ankle and bandaged hand. One lens from his glasses was broken as well. The doctor, seeing Trey has awakened reminded him he had been sedated and commented on the old burn mark on his arm. He asked Trey what happened and Trey made a weak excuse he tripped, fell and hit his head so he didn't remember the rest. The doctor was not convinced based on his injuries. The doctor thought Trey had either jumped or fell from the Hotel de la Notre Dame where he was not a guest. Trey realized the doctor knew more than he had hoped. A French policeman arrived at the hospital to question Trey and told him he was under criminal investigation. Trey was dismayed. The policeman left to talk to the doctor about his suspicions. When they returned, Trey had disappeared."
