All My Children - DAILY UPDATES

Erica rushes into Ryan's house apologizing for being late for a meeting. She stops short when she sees a shirtless Ryan doing pull-ups! He stops and they go over numbers, discussing how Fusion is in trouble right now. He says he'll handle the big meeting for her - she should go home and do her 'homework'. He gives her a kiss on the cheek and heads to the shower!

In the hospital, Jake tells David to butt out - he and Amanda will make their own family decisions. David says he was just trying to help, but Jake says his help is the type that sends people to Outer Mongolia!

As Tad and Taylor wait around the corner from the baby in the alley, Amanda calls and says that Opal has been held up in the hospital. Tad and Taylor heard someone approach and take the baby - he tells her the baby is gone! Tad and Taylor go into full out panic mode!

Amanda finds Jake in the hospital and frantically tells him that someone has taken Trevor - someone has taken their baby! They go to find Opal, who is being kept for observation by Joe, and tell her what has happened. Jake gets a call from Tad, who says there is no sign of the baby. Jake says they're on their way - keep looking! Opal says she'll lookout for someone bringing a baby to the hospital. Jake and Amanda leave, and David appears, saying to Opal that he hears she's having heart issues again. When he starts saying Amanda and Jake's names, Opal's heart races. David asks why she's reacting this way to him saying their names - he urges her to get whatever she's hiding off her chest! She rants that things have been busy at home - Tad got shot, and Amanda lost the baby! She assures him she'll rest if he lets her go home.

Madison and Jesse really get into it at the casino over Henry North's case being re-opened. He tells her that money is all she loves, and warns that if all this doesn't go right, she's got as much to lose as anyone - she'd better hope that this can be fixed!

Ryan takes his business meeting at ConFusion. The buyer wonders why Erica isn't there. Ryan says he knows that number as well as anyone. The man points out that Fusion needs a feminine touch. Suddenly, Erica appears - the man is charmed. Ryan and Erica beam at one another. The buyer is turning down their offer, so Erica flirts shamelessly and asks him to dance with her. After the dance, the buyer not only accepts their offer, but doubles it! Ryan tells her that was spectacular. Ryan rubs Erica's toes - the buyer stepped on them! They bond over closing the deal, and then discuss their children. Erica admits she misses Kendall. He says she needs to have some fun, and suggests they have a movie marathon. He asks her to join him on the dance floor, where they share a very intimate dance!

In the alley, Amanda, Jake, Tad, and Taylor discuss what to do about the missing baby. They all worry that if they go through official channels David could find out. Jake says they should do what they can first, and if nothing works, they will then go to the police. Amanda thinks David has the baby. Jake has a plan, but wants Amanda to go wait at the hospital. Taylor will stay in the alley. Tad and Jake take off, and Taylor spots a homeless woman. She tells Taylor that she saw a woman with a tattoo carrying a basket, and she spoke Spanish. The woman hands Taylor a baby sock, saying it fell out of the basket, then takes off.

David is telling Opal she needs to stay in the hospital for observation, when Amanda comes in. They finally get rid of him, and Amanda grills Opal, trying to find out what David was asking her. Opal realizes that Amanda thinks David has Trevor - she becomes extremely upset! Amanda walks out of the room, down by the nursery. David appears and says that he comes to look at the babies too. He wonders what it would have been like if their son had lived. She says he'd be fighting her for custody and she'd be fighting back with everything she has - because she would never let him steal her son! David gapes as she stalks off!

Frankie goes back to the casino and tells Madison he decided to take her up on her offer to gamble together, saying he needs to blow off some steam. She beams. Madison tells Frankie she knows why he's really there - his mom has been stirring up all kinds of questions - and he wants answers. She says if he doesn't play the game right, he won't find out anything. He says how about no games - just answers. She asks what he wants to know. He asks why she's out to cause trouble for his family? Madison says there are better things to talk about - like how much he wants to kiss her right now. Frankie says she's out of her mind, and leaves.

Jesse and Angie meet up at ConFusion and have a confrontation about the North case. Angie asks him if he killed North. He doesn't respond, so she says she knows it has to do with Randi - did he kill North to protect her? Jesse is not forthcoming, so Angie starts flinging out questions, such as asking Jesse if he had an affair with Madison North. Jesse denies that, and says he did not kill North. Angie wants to know exactly what happened. Finally, Angie gets around to deciding that he's protecting Randi. She asks him to tell her what Randi did - otherwise, she'll ask Randi!

Jake and Tad break into David's house and start looking for clues. Jake tells Tad that he figures David has the baby hidden until he figures out his next move. Tad says he understands why Jake went through all of this. Suddenly, Jake finds a phone bill with a bunch of calls to Gloucester, Massachusetts. He wonders if he's got a place there where he might keep the baby.

Tad returns to the alley and Taylor tells him her lead. Tad says it's no good - he knows of the tattooed person in question. He is certain that David has the baby, telling Taylor they're following up on a lead from his phone bill.

Jake returns to the hospital and he and Amanda hide and listen as David talks to someone on the phone, saying that the package is on the way, and that he'll be there soon! Amanda tells Jake that David was asking Opal all sorts of questions about them. Jake says that they are tracing a location from a phone number on David's bill. Tad calls and gives Jake the information. Amanda says she's going to Massachusetts with him!

At home, Randi ignores the ringing phone and plays with the baby!
