October 1 Summary by Dustin
Just as the judge is about to give his verdict a phone call interrupts and he
must leave to take care of something urgent. Marlena shows up and sneaks into
the chamber. Austin, Sami, and Carrie get into a fight over Sami's visit to the
judge.
Marlena tells Sami she loves her, but can't understand how she can be so hurtful
to Carrie and Austin. Sami claim she is only doing what she needs to keep her family
together, and she doesn't really care what anyone else thinks. The judge returns and
tells them that Sami's words truely convinced him that she and Austin love each
other, and he sees no reason why they can't take Will back to Salem.
Carrie throws it back in Sami's face when she apologizes to Sami and she thanks her
because without her little scheme the judge may not have made the decision he did.
Kristen, John, Jen, and Peter have lunch at the Paris cafe. Jennifer brings up
the hearing with Austin and Carrie, and John says Marlena has gone to be with them.
Jennifer says how caring Marlena is. Kristen slips and says she wants a white wine,
and
everyone looks at her. Then she says it's the pressure, and of
course she
can't have wine. John and Jennifer go off and leave Peter and Kristen alone for
awhile.
John asks Jen how she will explain to Abby why she and Jack aren't
together (he claims
to be curious as to what he will tell Belle in the future). Jen says Abby is to
young to understand, and that sometime she doesn't understand. John asks rhetorical
that she still loves Jack. Jen brushes it off, but he says she should accept it and
move on, then Jen asks if he is talking about Marlena. Jen tells John how much she
misses Abby, but Maggi is coming to Paris tomorrow to visit Mickey, and she is
brining Abby and then Jen, Peter, and Abby are going on a 6 month cruise.
Peter and Kristen wallow in self pity about how they had to scheme to keep the ones
they love
John takes Kristen back to the room where she takes a nap. John calls Marlena
about the trial, and Marlena gives him the good news. Marlena is concerned and feels
Kristen needs to see a doctor. The phone call ends and Kristen begins talking
in her sleep. She says the baby is dead, and John hears it.
Daniel has been running from goons all day in Paris but is eventually caught.
Jack finds out where Daniel is. Daniel is in his hotel room, tied up, and being
beaten senseless by some the goons. Jacks offers to pay his debts if he tells him
what he wants to know about Peter. Daniel tells him a bunch of useless crap about how
Peter
is involved with some shady business deals and Jack refuses to pay him for it.
Jack leaves and Laura tells him that he can't leave Daniel there, that those men will
kill him. Jack goes back into the room and Daniel tells him he gives up, that he will
tell Jack what he needs to turn Jen against Peter for good.

On Wednesday, Hope is alone on the boat preparing for her upcoming
wedding [meaning going through stuff and tossing things out -- whatever that
has to do with preparing for a wedding] when she comes across an old video of
Bo and Billie. Unable to resist, Hope takes a look. Hope is surprised to see
how happy and very much in love they were. Although she tries not to let it
bother her, Hope can't help but wonder if unattached Billie could be a threat.
[Hope has a heart-to-heart with Alice, who is not sure that inviting Billie
to the wedding is such a good idea.] Meanwhile, Kate is not convinced that
Billie has moved on in her life. She still has those unresolved feelings for
Bo. [Kate is surprised to hear that the man in Billie's life is Franco Kelly.
He stops by to show Kate his portfolio, and ends up visiting with Billie and
going down to Victor's stables, where he tries to teach her how to ride a
horse. Things get steamy as Franco tells Billie how to mount, and helps to
show her how to move in the saddle. Bo (who came to see Victor) and Kate walk
in at an inopportune moment. Hope arrives shortly afterwards to deliver the
wedding invitations. Kate is not certain that Franco is the man for Billie,
but she is impressed with his work, including a striking photo of Franco with
blue eyes. He explains that sometimes he wears contact lenses during photo
shoots to achieve a different look.] Jack finally gets the information from
Daniel that will prove to Jennifer that Peter is a DiMera through and through
[he forces Daniel to put it in writing before he pays off his debts]. Jack
immediately passes the information along to Jennifer [who was about to spend
a final evening in Paris with Peter before they leave on their cruise], and
of course she doesn't want to believe it. Jack tells Jennifer that he has
proof, and then he brings in Daniel. [Daniel tells her every word is true.
Peter tries to discount Jack's attempt to discredit him, but he's sweating
bullets and wonders if his time is up.] Vivian demands that Ivan get her out
of prison *now* [and she tunnels over to Ivan's cell because she can't stand
to be in this place any longer.] Before Ivan can explain the situation to
Vivian, Ivan's new cellmate gives an exciting twist to the situation [he
insists on escaping with them, or he'll turn them in], with some interesting
information about someone in Salem [sounds like he knows someone there.]
