What Are You?

Tuesday, January 06 2009
Craig asks Lucy for a fresh start, Brad tells Dusty about Craig's blackmail, Katie and Johnny undergo their procedures and Jade outs Brian to Lucinda!

Craig can't believe Katie but she says Johnny and Lucy are right upstairs. She tells him about the cancer and he rushes away. Dusty spots them and asks Katie what she did. She says she told Craig about Johnny's illness. He says if Johnny winds up dead – like Bryant! – it will be all her fault! He walks off. Katie calls Brad. He can't believe she told Craig and says she is going to regret her actions.

Upstairs, Craig knocks on Lucy's door, surprising her. She gets very worried about Craig but he is gentle with Johnny. Dusty arrives. Craig says all that matters is Johnny's health and suggests they all go to the hospital now!


Brad and Katie are at the hospital so she can get ready for the procedure. Craig arrives and says he will always be grateful to her. She is wheeled away. Brad tells Craig that Katie better be okay after all of this. Craig goes across the hall to find Dusty sitting with Johnny, telling him everything will be okay. Dusty sees Craig and tells him to leave but Craig won't go. He sits beside Johnny and tells him he will be fine. Johnny fist-bumps him the way Dusty taught him to do. Nurses come in and wheel Johnny out. Lucy cries as he is taken. Dusty asks Lucy to have coffee but Craig says they need to talk first. Dusty leaves them alone and has coffee with Brad. They bond over their daddy issues. They also agree that Katie shouldn't have told Craig anything. Brad tells Dusty about Craig's blackmail. Dusty wants the details but Brad won't divulge them. Dusty says he can help if Brad will trust him. Brad gives in and tells Dusty everything. "I'll take care of this myself," Dusty says.



Lucinda arrives home, excited. She goes into the kitchen. Brian apologizes to Luke, who says the New Year's kiss was all his fault. They make peace and shake hands as Lucinda returns with a container of pills. She asks what is going on between them now! Before either can answer Jade arrives. Lucinda makes a smart remark about Jade. "Well at least I don't have a gay husband," Jade says! Lily overhears. Luke tries to take Jade out but Lucinda demands that she stay and explain herself. Jade apologizes and says she was just upset. Lily asks what is really going on. As they argue Brian yells at all of them to stop. Lucinda asks to speak with Luke as Jade makes a quick exit upstairs. Luke and Lily leave, telling Lucinda to talk to Brian. He says he loves her but she says she wants the truth. "I made a pass at your grandson," Brian admits. "I kissed him!" Lucinda asks if he is bi-sexual or homosexual but Brian says he doesn't use labels. He apologizes and suggests that they put all of this behind them. Lucinda can't believe what she is hearing and calls their marriage a lie. "All the while I was dreaming about having sex with my husband he was dreaming about having sex with my grandson," she exclaims! She asks if he is attracted to Luke and Brian admits he is but says they can get past this. She kicks him out!



Outside, Lily questions Luke. He tells her about the pass Brian made, shocking Lily. He says he didn't know what to do and then he kissed Brian! He tells her everything, including his drinking. She says he should have told someone what was going on but Luke says he couldn’t end Lucinda's happiness. He defends Brian, telling Lily how much he loves Lucinda. "When it comes to sexuality he is just very messed up," Luke says. He goes back inside and sees Jade. She apologizes but blames her words on Lucinda. Luke says this is all Jade's fault but they agree to stick together.


Lucinda watches Brian pack. He insists they belong together but Lucinda won't listen. He leaves. Lucinda is cleaning up the room when Lily walks in. Lucinda says she should have seen this coming but Lily insists none of this is Lucinda's fault. Lily hugs her.

Craig and Lucy go to Java. He tells her how much he has changed but she doesn't believe him. He asks if they can start over. She says he is to blame for Bryant's death; Craig agrees that he is but says he will do anything. Lucy says she will try to forgive him but says Dusty might have other ideas. Craig starts to cry and Lucy takes his hand, saying everything will be okay. Craig thanks her for bringing Johnny back to Oakdale. They both agree to put Johnny first from now on.


Katie is brought back to her room, sleepy from the meds. Brad goes to get her some water and Dusty comes in to thank her for the donation. She asks how Johnny is but there is no news yet. Dusty says he knows about the fake alibi for Craig and tells her that she has to tell Margo the whole truth this time around! She refuses. He says he'll protect her and swears that Craig doesn't want a peaceful reunion – he wants Johnny! Katie tells him to get out but he says she owes him! "You put Craig back in Johnny's life. It's up to you to get him out," Dusty says! In the hall he sees Craig and Lucy return. Craig says they all need to make peace and leaves to talk to Katie. Lucy tells Dusty she is just pretending to give Craig a second chance and begs him to stick to their original plan! Craig goes to Katie's room and she tells him about Dusty's threats. Craig says he'll fix this and leaves. Craig returns to the other room and hears Lucy telling Dusty that she'll get the passports ready! Brad comes back to Katie's room and she turns on him, asking how he could have told Dusty. She tells him to get out! Craig calls Margo and tells her Lucy is back – and he wants her arrested!


Next on As The World Turns:

Carly asks Henry for money because she is broke.

Craig insists that Margo arrest Lucy; Margo questions Craig's motives.

Dusty tries to help Lucy escape!

DUSTY IS SO ANNOYING. HOPE HE DIES AGAIN.

I can't get over how thin the walls are in the hospital and how everything happens on the same floor. I can't believe Craig heard every word Lucy and Dusty were saying behind a closed door.

I felt sorry for Lucinda today and I liked her spunk. She is one fine actor. I didn't quite understand her scene with Jade...

Craig - changed? I don't think so. If you are such a changed man, why would you want to have your child arrested for something you know was in the best interest of the child. If Johnny had remained in Oakdale those past two years, he would not have had a healthy father/son relationship with Craig and Dusty constantly fighting. I know Katie meant well; however, she should not have told Craig especially after he would not voluntarily give blood to be tested to see if he were a match. Even after Katie told him, if he was such a good dad, why didn't he insist that he be tested and/or take Katie's place as a donor? Please, give me a break.

I used to love Dusty but now he acts like he walks on water. Some of the final scenes with Jennifer were so touching I'm wondering what they've done to him.

I hate that Craig gets by with murder or attempted murder all the time and his sister is the Chief Police! I can't remember what happened to his son either. Craig is his father that tells you a lot. I think he was upset with his Dad and was drinking & was killed in a car wreck? Not sure. I swear Dusty, Craig & Paul? It's a toss up to figure which one is the worst! Must we have 3 nut cases who have to rule the world to get what they want?
