Wyndemere: Bobbie(is sitting on the sofa drinking a glass of wine, smirking, when Stefan enters)So, you're back. Did you break up anymore weddings on the way home? Stefan:No, but I did take some candy away from some babies. Is my sister all settled in upstairs? Bobbie:She's as snug as a bug in a rug. Stefan:Barbara, we're really going to have to do something about your use of american slang, especially in front of Nikolas. You're a Cassadine now. It's time you learned to speak like one. Bobbie:Whatever you say, Stefan. Stefan:Why are you being so agreeable. And why are you smirking at me, like that. Bobbie:That's for me to know and for you to find out. Stefan:What's that supposed to mean? Sonny(enters wearing a robe, carrying a glass of milk and a sandwich)Hey, Steve, what's shaking? Stefan:What are you doing here? Sonny:I live here. Like you don't know. Hey, Bobbie. Bobbie:Hey, Sonny. Stefan:What's going on? Sonny(drapes his arm around Stefan's shoulder)You know, Steve, I was pretty ticked off when you stormed in and busted up my wedding. I wasn't too happy about you calling me a peasant, either. And when you wanted Miranda to move in here with you, I was sure you were trying to bust up me and my little cuddle bunny. Then Bobbie explained things to me and I realized I had it all wrong. You're really a swell guy. Stefan(glaring at Bobbie)Did she really. Bobbie:Yes, I did. I told Sonny you wouldn't want to stand in the way of true love. That you being European, you just didn't make yourself clear. That, of course, your invitation to Miranda included Sonny, since you didn't want to keep them apart. Sonny:It was really swell of you, Steve. This place is so cool. It's like I've stepped into a horror movie. I keep expecting Bela Lugosi to pop out at me at any moment from one of the secret rooms. When I was a boy growing up in Bensonhurst, I always wanted to live in Dracula's Castle. This is a childhood dream come true. Stefan:How nice for you and the name is Stefan. Sonny:I'm just americanizing it. I'm Michael, but everyone calls me Sonny. Bobbie is Barbara. It's something we do in America. Now that you live here, I thought maybe you'd like to adopt our customs. It's like that old saying. When in Rome do as the romans do. Stefan;I prefer Stefan, thank you very much. I am descended from royal lineage. Why would I want to adopt your american customs. Can you trace your bloodline back seven generations? Sonny:No need to get huffy, Steve. Boy, you really are uptight. It's too bad I still don't run the stripclub. A night at the Paradise Lounge would sure loosen you up. Stefan:How dare you even sugges I, a Cassadine, would got to a place where women take their clothes off. Sonny:As fascinating as this conversation is, I'd better be getting back to Miranda before she thinks I fell into the moat. Stefan:Are you trying to tell me you're sharing the same room as my sister. Sonny(elbows him)You bet I am. We're not going to let a little thing like not being legally married stop uss. I should warn you, though, Miranda and I have been known to get pretty loud. So if we get too noisy, you just bang on the wall to let us know. Night, Steve. Stefan:(yells at Sonny's departing back)It's Stefan, you peasant. Stefan. Not Steve. Stefan. Sonny(heading up the stairs)Whatever. Stefan(turns on Bobbie)How dare you invite that peasant to live here. Bobbie:Stefan, he's going to be your brother by marriage. You should take this opportunity to forge a new close relationship with him. Stefan:That's not amusing, Barbara. Bobbie:I felt the same way when you brought that little tramp home to live with us. If I have to put up with Carly Roberts, you'll just have to put up with Sonny. Goodnight, Steve. Stefan:It's Stefan. Carly's Bedroom: Carly(screams as a panel in the wall starts to open)Oh, it's you. Luke:Sweet Caroline, is that any way to greet your devoted Uncle Luke. You're awful jumpy. That aint good. For what we got planned, you're going to need nerves of steel. Carly:Well, excuse me, you're not the one who has to live here. This place is creepy. I keep expecting something to jump out at me and grab me by the throat. Luke:You obviously had no problem getting Vlad to let you move in. Carly:What choice did he have. He knew I had him by his... Luke:I get the picture. Have you had any luck devirginizing little Nicky, yet? Carly:I just moved in. Even I don't move that fast. Luke:Well, get moving. This has gotten real old fast. I've been trying to drive that vampire out of this town for over a year. I want this over with. Carly:Luke, I have to lead up to this, slowly. Frankly, I'm not all that thrilled to be seducing a teenager. It seems awful sleazy to me. Luke:It couldn't be any sleazier than sleeping with your stepdaddy. Look, you're the one who told me you wanted to team up with me to get revenge on the Grim Reaper because of Dr. Tony and your little demon seed. Well, getting your hooks into the little bastard is the way to do it. Dr. Demento is just running things until that brat comes of age. If we can pull that kid's strings, we'll control the Cassadines and have the power to run Uncle Fester out of this town. Miranda's Bedroom: Miranda(as Sonny enters)Sonny, what took you so long? Sonny:I ran into your brother. Miranda:I'm almost afraid to ask how it went. Sonny:(removes his robe and climbs into bed with her)I behaved like the crass and common peasant he accused me of being. Miranda:Sonny! Sonny:We both know he doesn't want us together. He's made that perfectly clear. He thought having you move in here would keep us apart. I was raised with manners, but I'll be damned if I show them to him. If there's a way I can irritate and aggravate him, I will. Miranda(caresses Sonny's cheek)Sonny, there's nothing he can do ot come between us. We love each other and we can handle whatever he throws at us. Sonny(rolls on top of her)You know, I warned your brother we might get a little loud. We wouldn't want to disappoint him, would we? Miranda(wraps her arms around Sonny)No, we wouldn't. Dock of Spoon Island: Yanni(helps Helena out of the boat)Welcome to Spoon Island, Madame. The master didn't say you were coming. Helena(Liz Taylor)That's because he doesn't know. I want to surprise him.(as Yanni leads her up to the house she wears an evil smile on her face) Mrs. Lansbury(opens the door to her and immediately wears a terrified look)Madame! Helena:(enters and looks around in a predatory way)Mrs. Lansbury, how nice to see you again. I was very disappointed when you left me to come to work for my son. Mrs. Lansbury(stammers nervously)Madame, the master is in charge now. I had no choice. Helena:Yes, my son is in power, for now. But that could quickly change. And if it does, I'll be sure to reward those who remained loyal to me and punish those who didn't. Mrs. Lansbury:(swallows deeply)Yes, Madame. I'll go and prepare a room for you. Helena:(coldly)You do that. And, Mrs. Lansbury...(she turns to Helena)There's no need to alert my son of my presence. He'll know soon enough. Let him get a good night's rest. It may be the last one he gets for a long time. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
