03/08/2004 David Explains The Risks Of Surgery To Edmund



"Bianca's baby shower came to standstill after Erica's outburst about naming the baby after Mona (Miranda Mona Montgomery). Bianca tried to ask her what she wants, but Erica only said she wanted to get the stain off her jacket before it sets. Bianca worried about her mother and felt guilty for surprising her. Opal and Kendall assured her Erica would come around. Bianca went back to opening gifts and they all loved the music box Myrtle sent that had been given to her by her mother. Bianca and Kendall were worried about Erica, so Babe gave Krystal a signal to distract everyone and she went upstairs to see Erica. Erica begged Babe to help Bianca. Erica told Babe that she will be able to look at her baby and feel love and see JR and that Bianca only likes the idea of a baby and will only see Michael when she looks at her baby. Erica was very upset as she explained that Bianca will only relive the rape whenever she sees her baby's eyes and will not feel the joy and love she should. She begged Babe to save Bianca, as her friend, and not let her have the baby. They were interrupted by Krystal and after Erica left, Babe told Krystal what Erica had said. Krystal tried to be understanding but Babe started to fear for Bianca.

Downstairs, they kept opening presents and Kendall's gift was a toy dog and she begged Bianca to let her get a real puppy for the baby. Bianca asked questions about babies and childbirth and Erica returned to the party, handing Bianca the gift she'd brought. Bianca was thrilled to find a silver cup and spoon. Erica thanked Babe and said her goodbyes. Kendall tried to stop her, but Erica insisted on leaving. Opal followed her out and the cake was brought in. Bianca asked Babe what Erica had said, but Krystal signaled Babe to not tell her. The celebration continued and Bianca asked Kendall to be her Lamaze coach. Kendall joked that her nickname for Bianca's baby would be "MiMo. ("Mee Mo")"

At the hospital, Maria bumped into Aidan who expressed his concern about Edmund. Maria was worried and only said she was counting on David now. Aidan was supportive and Maria apologized for dragging him into her drama.

In Edmund's room, David said he was ready for whatever Edmund had to give. Edmund only wanted to thank him for saving his life during the surgery...but David said he was there to consult about his current condition, at Maria's request. David explained the significant risk of more surgery to Edmund's already damaged heart and said even he likely couldn't save him. Edmund asked for a personal opinion instead of a professional one. David stated he learned his lesson and would have nothing to do with separating him from Maria ever again. Maria came in later and Edmund told her he'd decided to postpone the surgery and wanted to go home.

Bobby handed Anita a belated Valentine's gift box. He expressed his love for her and how much he misses her and he pleaded with her to stay with him. She was surprised to find a beautiful necklace in the box, one they couldn't afford last Christmas. Bobby was excited about his new job and their future but Anita asked for more time to think about what she wants and for him to leave her alone. Aidan overheard and tried to chase Bobby away, but Anita explained he was her husband.

David went to the clinic and was told a patient was waiting for him. He was surprised to find Erica in the cubicle.

Greenlee was thrilled that Ryan wanted her to ride off with him into the sunset because it meant he'd forgiven her and she cried. Ryan was pleasantly surprised at her vulnerability. Ryan explained the rules about no death grips and leaning into turns and not complaining about passing outlet malls. Greenlee got excited and wanted more information about where they were going and Ryan told her if that was the case, she was uninvited. She was reluctant to throw caution to the wind and expect daily surprises, but admitted she trusted him with her life. As long as Ryan promised to take her shopping so she could be the Audrey Hepburn of the motorcycle set and get veggie pizzas, she'd agree. He handed her a helmet and warned her about bad hair days. Greenlee grabbed the empty box and they left."
