AMANDA DILLON MARTIN'S HISTORY

Amanda grew up as the daughter of Natalie and Trevor Hunter, but in reality, it was her crazy aunt, Janet Green, who actually gave birth to her. On the day that Natalie and Trevor were to be married, Janet threw her sister down a well, disguised herself as Nat and, without the groom's knowledge, stood in for the bride. The wedding night resulted in conception.

When the real Natalie was rescued, Janet was sent to prison, but escaped and kidnapped her sister. A pregnant Janet went into labor, and Natalie delivered the baby. Janet was captured and locked up again, and Natalie later died after she and Trevor took Amanda in to raise.

Amanda was kept in the dark about her parentage, but when Janet had surgery to reconstruct her looks, and returned to Pine Valley, the truth was eventually revealed. Despite Janet's mental deficiency, Amanda grew close to the woman who bore her, and eventually moved with her to Colorado to reunite with Trevor who had been cleared of false murder charges.

When Amanda returned, she enrolled in high school and reconnected with old friends. Some of her mother's old habits rubbed off, and Amanda was caught red-handed, trying to steal money from the Chandler safe. JR promised not to report the attempted theft if Amanda would help him break up Jamie Martin and Babe Carey. She lied to them, saying that JR had drugged her in an attempt to bed her, and Jamie insisted she move in with him and Babe. How convenient, being close to the very couple she needed to destroy. The whole plan backfired, and Amanda ended up being ousted and ignored by all three.

Amanda got a job a New Beginnings, working with Erica Cane and assistant, Josh, and subsequently started having blackouts. During lucid moments, she learned that residents of Pine Valley were being attacked and injured by an unknown assailant, and feared she might be the culprit. She soon discovered that it was her crazed mother, who had returned with a vendetta against the town. When a deadly bomb exploded during a Gala, killing, Ethan Cambias, among others, Amanda became sullen and withdrawn, unable to deal with the guilt wrought by her mother's actions.

Brooke English took Amanda in and helped her deal with her emotions. Before long, a stronger Amanda emerged, and she went to work at ConFusion, working with Jonathan Lavery, and helping to console him after his marriage with Lily ended. Now she's comforting him through the senseless death of his beloved sister, Erin.

All was calm for Amanda until Adam Chandler sprung Janet from jail and gave her baby Jenny. Amanda tried to believe the best in her mother but Adam used Janet's illness against Amanda and made her help him. Amanda finally figured everything out and saved Jenny. Then, she blackmailed Adam for $5 million to remain silent about his involvement in the kidnapping. Around this time, Amanda and JR began having an affair. One night, she made a sex tape - to get back at JR - and when the tape was the only thing that would clear his name in Zach's disappearance, she hid it. She eventually came clean; both JR and Babe were very angry.

Eventually Babe and Amanda became friends again. When Jake Martin returned to town, Amanda set her sights on him and began an affair. She also decided to use her own money to back Babe's product idea (Bella). Amanda lost all of her money in when it was found out that Bella was tainted; then, in the tornadoes, Babe was killed. Amanda floundered. She overheard JR say it was her fault that Babe was dead. Crushed, Amanda became easy prey for David Hayward.

They had a one night stand and then David convinced her to work with him against the Chandlers. He promised her a huge sum of money to con JR and Adam; Amanda went along with the plan.

Amanda was pregnant with David's baby and he had threatened to steal the child when it was born. With the help of Jake Martin she devised a plan to have the baby in the Bahamas and give it up for adoption. Unbeknownst to her, Jake planned to give the baby to Liza. Amanda and Jake got married, and Liza received the baby - except that it wasn't Amanda's baby - Jake had given her son to a nanny to care for. Amanda was reunited with her son, but David soon discovered he was alive and demanded that Amanda and the boy move in with him!

At the police station, Amanda and Jake argue about his plan to lie under oath to incriminate David. Liza is there regarding Damon's case, and Tad rushes over to ask her to talk sense into Jake! Liza hurries over to where Jake is about to sit down with Jesse. Jake sighs and says he'll give her a minute. Amanda, Liza, and Tad all try to make Jake see that he could be prosecuted for lying to the police. Liza warns he will get tripped up, and then he'll go to prison for perjury! Jesse comes back into the room and asks if Jake is ready. Jake says, "Let's get this show on the road!" Amanda and Tad walk out and comment on Jake self-destructing. Jake gives Jesse his statement, saying he saw David get on the elevator at Fusion and go up. Jake tells him it was Monday night, and Jesse tersely informs him that Fusion was attacked on Tuesday. Liza realizes that Jake deliberately got the day wrong - he saw the light.

Jake, Tad, Liza, and Amanda gather at ConFusion where Jake suggests that they come up with something better to incriminate David - like putting a cufflink in Fusion next to the computer. Tad says they aren't there to talk about nailing David - this is an intervention - Jake has to stop! Amanda tells Jake she is with him because he's not like David. Jake says he didn't start this - he's just making sure it's over! Liza tells him to think about losing his family. Tad hits Jake on the back of the head and follows Liza who has walked over to the bar. She sighs, and tells him that Bailey left with Stuart to live with her parents - she's gone for good.

At the hospital, Angie tells Amanda and Jake that David is not going to be doing surgery there after all. Amanda says that's great - he's got no reason to stay then! She urges Jake to let it go once and for all. Jake still wants to go ahead with the lawsuit. They argue, and Jake assures her they'll have peace - as soon as he knows David is gone.

Tad is joking with Krystal about her accident at the Martin house. Opal insists that her tea leafs say something is amiss - and whatever is getting started has wicked written all over it! Tad thinks of David, but says he is supposed to be leaving town. Krystal wryly points out that he's lied before. Tad says if David stays, then Jake will take care of him! Jake and Amanda come in - Amanda announces that David is leaving. They start teasing Krystal, and she gets up to leave the room. Jake asks where Liza is, and Amanda explains that Jake is going to drop the lawsuit. Krystal urges them to hold off - they have two years to file it. Opal gets back on the topic of the ominous tea leaf reading, and Tad gets a call from his man at the airport - David's plane just took off for Gloucester! The all toast teacups to the good news.

Ryan arrives at the Martin house and fills them all in on the latest about David. He admits that they need to figure out what his motive would be for sabotaging Fusion. Amanda tells Ryan that she and Liza saw a tabloid at Wildwind with him and Erica on the cover - it was torn in half! Opal urges Ryan to drink tea. Krystal explains that Opal will read the leaves. Ryan is dubious, but he drinks it. When he finishes everyone yells at him to swirl clockwise three times! Ryan starts to worry about Erica, who is with David right now. He leaves, and Jake, Amanda, and Tad decide to go to the police station. Opal reads Ryan's tea cup and tells Krystal that something is going to happen to him that will change his life for good!

Back down at the police station, Tad, Jake, and Amanda offer up the ripped tabloid to Jesse as a motive for David doing in Fusion. Jesse says they still don't have anything other than circumstantial evidence. Jake blurts that he saw David that night - going up in the elevator! Jesse is skeptical, and Amanda glares. Jesse steps away and Tad hisses that he's going to call Liza - someone needs good legal advice.
