The Great Greenlee Escape!Monday, November 12 2007 |
Aidan hides Greenlee in the Wildwind Stables; Kendall worries what Greenlee might do next. Jack has it out with Erica. JR falls off the wagon; Babe and Richie continue to bond.
JR finishes off the scotch and puts the glass on the bar. Talking to himself, he realizes he is on the verge of losing control. The bartender walks over and JR orders another scotch! Amanda walks in, sees him with the drink and begins to worry. She asks why he has turned to the bottle and then asks if his financing fell through. JR doesn't feel like talking and makes a smart remark. Amanda brings up Babe, which makes JR think she knows about his proposal of a few hours before. Amanda can't believe 1) that JR proposed recently and 2) that he slept with Babe a few hours ago! Angrily, Amanda pours him another scotch and then dumps it in his lap. She leaves him alone.
At the boathouse, Babe watches Richie for a few minutes. He tries to cover his fall by saying he is a clutz but Babe doesn't buy it. Worried, she asks how he is really doing. Babe tells Richie about a little boy she knows who has been in remission for a year. Richie says his leukemia is much worse and he knows his time is limited. He says it isn't so bad and he can appreciate life and people more now than before he got sick. "You take things for granted 'til you realize you might not see them again. Feel them again," he says. Babe asks how much time he has left; Richie doesn't answer. Instead he brings up his prison shrink and Annie. Babe believes he really wants to reconnect with Annie and doesn't want to hurt her. Seeing an ally, Richie tells Babe about Ryan and the plane trip. Babe is stunned. From outside the boathouse, JR watches them.
Inside the court room, everyone is surprised to find Greenlee is gone. Angrily, Derek confronts a couple of the guards. Ryan watches from outside, knowing Aidan just took Greens, and then turns away and leaves the courthouse. Jack pulls Erica outside, telling her that the "escape" doesn't mean Greenlee is guilty of trying to kidnap Spike. Erica says it does and he angrily tells her that the only reason Greenlee was in court at all was because of Kendall's attempt to frame her! Erica tries to help Jack dry off and apologizes to him because she was a bit harsh. Erica sticks with her story and throws Greenlee's court "confession" in his face. Then she tells Jack that Greenlee's crime isn't his fault because he didn't raise her. Jack throws that back in Erica's face, asking if Kendall's crimes aren't Erica's problem because Erica didn't raise her! Jack returns to the courtroom and calls to find out about Aidan. He is nowhere to be found, which makes Jack curious. He sees Erica across the room and goes to her, saying he doesn't need her there. Erica says she will stand by him throughout this crisis and won't bad-mouth Greenlee. She points out that since Greenlee is likely with Aidan things will be fine. This only makes Jack more upset and he tells Erica he doesn't need her kind of help. Angry, Erica gathers her things and tells Jack if he doesn't need her help, Kendall certainly does! She leaves. Derek returns inside and Jack asks him not to list Greenlee as an escapee but Derek says he can't. He tells Jack they are going to set up border patrols soon.
Back in the courtroom, Zach points out to a feeling-guilty Kendall that Aidan wasn't in court. This only makes Kendall worry more. She asks Zach to come with her to the hospital to take Ian home, where they can protect him from Greenlee! Along with Spike, Kendall and Zach arrive at the hospital and demand that Joe allows them to take Ian home. Joe refuses, saying Ian isn't ready. He assures them that Ian is safe at the hospital. Kendall comes up with a new solution: the Slater's will just move into Ian's NICU room! Kendall proceeds to head in to Ian's room and sets up camp. Zach asks Joe if they can bring in a few cots to sleep on. When Joe is gone, Kendall starts to go on about confessing the truth. Zach tells her it is too late for that and if she confesses now, she'll go to jail. Kendall brings up Derek but Zach tells her it has to end now, without Kendall confessing anything. Joe returns a few minutes later to help them set up. As he talks to them Erica walks in and stops him, thinking he is about to "out" her secret. Annoyed, Joe tells her that he was only helping them move in to the room and tells her to tell them everything else. When they are alone, Kendall demands to know what Erica did. Erica tells them that she was behind the attempted commitment of Greenlee; Zach is impressed. Kendall is furious and tells Erica that what she did is only one more reason for Greenlee to try to get revenge on them! She tells both Zach and Erica that Greenlee was moving on but they all kept her locked in the past. Zach leaves to get their security detail set up. When they are alone, Kendall tells Erica that Greenlee won't stop this time. Erica reassures Kendall that no one will get near Spike or Ian. She tells Kendall that things will work out. In the hall, Zach finds Josh and gives him a new job: find Aidan. Zach tells Josh about Aidan's "death threat". He returns to the NICU and his family.
Aidan takes Greenlee to the stables at Wildwind. She is worried that the authorities will figure out Aidan got her out of there but he insists there is nothing to tie him to the jail-break. Greenlee gets close to Aidan, puts her arms around him and makes him a proposition! They kiss and Aidan brings up the next step of their journey - complete with disguises and a place to hide out for a bit! He says they'll get her completely out of the country until he can clear her name! Greenlee gets changed, with Aidan's help. Dressed in her get-up - a man's outfit! - the get ready to leave. Before they can leave, Julia arrives. Greenlee hides. Aidan startles Julia as she enters the structure. Greenlee comes out of her hiding place, shocking Julia even more. Aidan swears Greenlee is innocent and they are trying to prove it. Julia, though, has already heard about the guilty plea. Aidan tells Julia that he has to get Greens out of town in order to prove she is innocent. Having been on the run, Julia tells them it won't be that easy and reminds them of all the hazards that come with a life on the run. Aidan asks her to keep their secret. Reluctantly, she agrees but tells Greenlee she needs to think really hard about leaving before they go. Julia offers to be their go-between so that Jack won't worry but Aidan tells her not to - because it will only lead to more trouble for Julia. Julia leaves. A few minutes later, Aidan and Greenlee follow.
Ryan returns home to find Annie cleaning up after the kids. He doesn't speak for a while, which throws Annie into a tailspin. Finally he tells her about Greenlee's arrest and escape, and says he isn't sure who is good and who is bad. "I stepped out of the way," he says and asks Annie what letting Greenlee get away makes him. Annie asks why he would do that and Ryan tells her that he believes Kendall set the whole thing up and that Greenlee is innocent. Annie is shocked, especially when Ryan says he confronted Kendall and Zach and they didn't deny their actions. Annie feels really bad and compares her actions with Richie to Kendall's actions with Greens. Ryan tells her there is a difference - that Richie is a real threat. As they sit and talk, Ryan tells Annie he just wants to get back to a normal life.
Still at the courthouse, Jack tries to get a call through to Mary Smythe. He leaves her a message to call him. Julia arrives and gives Jack a message from Greens: that she is fine and she loves him but she has to stay away from a while. Touched, Jack hugs Julia and thanks her for the message.
