 As The World Turns

Tuesday, August 26, 2008
When Alison received a beautiful bouquet of flowers at the hospital, she assumed they were from Aaron and thanked him. Aaron discovered Chris sent them. Dani invited Chris out to dinner but he turned her down, admitting he had feelings for someone else. She guessed it was Alison but couldn't convince him to realize he was fighting a losing battle. Getting a text message supposedly from Alison, Chris hurried to the Lakeview. Casey was angry when Emily explained that she was not bringing him to the engagement party for Alison and Aaron. He complained to Dani who found out about the party and realized Chris didn't know. Upset Lily and Mike were taking the girls out again, Luke burst into the house and demanded to take the kids for the night. He complained that she was bringing a man into their lives and that Mike would eventually leave. Hearing about the engagement party for Aaron and Alison, Lily offered to drop the girls off and the two apologized for their anger. But when Aaron invited her to stay, she and Holden argued about why she felt a need to be there. As the first toast of the night was made, Chris ignored Susan's request that he leave and heard about the engagement. Feeling sorry for him, Alison caught up with Chris and apologized when she realized how Aaron tricked him. She was taken aback when he admitted he thought they had a chance to be together. Aaron asked Alison why she was so concerned about a man she claimed she wanted nothing to do with. Later, they exchanged apologies as she assured him she loved only him. Dani tried to take Chris back to her room but he was not interested. In front of Lucinda, Brian assured Luke and Noah that he had no problem with them being gay. When Lucinda later advised them that Brian had offered to take her camping and mushroom hunting, they both worried about his agenda. He confronted them about their suspicions and assured them he was thrilled to be working at the foundation.

 

                               

GUIDING LIGHT

Tuesday, August 26, 2008
Olivia pleaded with Natalia to believe that Alan's visions meant nothing and were due to a blood clot affecting his brain. Josh caught Reva admiring some new lingerie and claimed "it will do." Seeing monogrammed "JOR" towels, Josh pointed out they'd sell at a garage sale. Talking about Shayne and the possibility that he had a new girlfriend, Josh pointed out to Reva she wouldn't have any memories about the kids with Jeffrey. Reva claimd they'd make their own memories and sent him on his way. Reva emailed Shayne and invited him to the wedding. Just after Lizzie laid into Bill for badmouthing her grandfather, Jeffrey interrupted, looking for Alan. He reported that Alan had skipped town and was perturbed when Lizzie decided not to testify against Alan. She admitted she changed her mind because her grandfather was dying. Jeffrey claimed they needed her testimony to make the case work. Lizzie approached Reva for advice about what to do with her grandfather. After promising a jailed Rafe that he'd get him out, Jeffrey pleaded with Doris to believe the shooting was accidental. Bill urged Lizzie to fight to get her daughter back by helping Jeffrey put Alan behind bars. Running into Olivia and Natalia after Olivia's doctor's appointment, Jeffrey advised them that Doris took him off Rafe's case. Olivia and Jeffrey got word about a change in treatment for Ava. Bill talked with Josh about everyone's new found spirituality. Josh leaked that Alan was in New York City to prove his spirituality but Bill guessed he was actually trying to steal back the company and decided to fly there. Olivia watched as Natalia told Rafe about Alan's medical condition which she thought was creating the visions. However, she also told her son that she felt Gus was looking out for them. Josh got a text message from Shayne, urging him to act fast to take Reva from Jeffrey.
