Wild Horses Couldn't Drag Me Away.

Thursday, August 13 2009
Bob won't leave Kim's side, Riley convinces Alison to hold her ground, Meg and Damian make plans to go on a love cruise, Faith questions Lily about her relationships, and Holden is in a dangerous situation!


Faith watches Damian and Meg through the window at the farm. Meg wants to go swimming at the pond and Damian kisses her. When they step inside, Meg leaves to change Eliza, as Faith flashes back to seeing Damian kiss Lily. Faith asks Damian, "Is my Aunt your girlfriend or is there someone else you like more?" Meg returns and Faith leaves in a hurry. Damian tells Meg he still wants to go on the cruise with her and suggests bringing Eliza. Meg giggles and thinks she can be ready in a half hour.



Tom makes Margo a big breakfast and tells her that eventually she has to forgive him for making Riley leave. They are interrupted with a call from Casey, who breaks the bad news about Kim having a heart attack. Casey also tells Tom that Bob is not answering his pages.



Riley shows Bob how to use his pager and offers to walk with him back to the hospital.



Holden calls Lily to tell her how much he misses their family. Lily isn't sure if Faith will reconsider joining him. He ends the call abruptly when he sees a cop on the side of the road. He pulls over and the cop gets in the car with a gun and orders him to drive! Holden sees he has blood on his shirt and suggests going to a hospital. The man orders him to shut up. He turns on the radio and an announcement says that a man who committed murder has escaped from prison. Holden tells the man if he shows remorse and turns himself in, things will work out. The man agrees to stop in a few towns to get aspirin and a bandage for his injured shoulder.



Casey tells Alison that they can't find Bob. Tom, Margo, Bob and Riley all arrive. Tom informs Bob that Kim had a heart attack! Casey asks Alison what she was doing with Kim. She admits she was trying to talk to her about Bob's mistake. Casey is livid, but Riley steps in and tells him he told Alison to talk to someone. Casey becomes even angrier and storms off.



Faith returns home and ignores Lily. Lily wonders what she did to upset her. Faith asks if she knows that Damian and Meg are together. Lily says she knows and it doesn't matter. Faith asks if Holden is the only one for her forever and ever and Lily assures her that she loves Holden. Faith wonders if Lily is still in love with Damian. Lily tells her she grew out of it and it is in the past. Faith doesn't believe her and leaves.



As Bob is going over Kim's chart, he tells Alison he wants another nurse working on the case. Kim wakes up and tells Bob she is tired. Tom tells her she gave them a scare and she says she wanted to keep them on their toes. Bob orders her to get some rest and asks Tom, Margo and Casey to come back when Kim is stronger. Bob tells them his place is with Kim and wild horses couldn't drag him away.



Riley chases after Alison in Old Town and discovers Dr. Hughes ordered her off Kim's case. Riley blames Casey for shooting his mouth off. Alison admits that she believes Bob made a mistake, but it is tough to stand her ground. Riley tells her about seeing Bob in Old Town disoriented and unable to use his pager.



Damian goes to see Lily and tells her about the cruise. Lily hopes they will have a lovely time. Damian tells her if she admitted she was still in love with him, he would not go. Lily tells him she is committed to her husband and family and that will never change. Damian promises to not bother her again.



Back at home, Margo gives Tom a sandwich. She admits she is mad, but he is her husband and Kim is family and that trumps everything else. She agrees to put the issue of Riley aside for now. He tells her he loves her and leaves for a shower. Casey arrives home and is upset that Riley gave Alison bad advice and that she took it. Casey thinks that Riley is still screwing things up for their family.



At Kim's bedside, Bob gets up and begins to fiddle with Kim's tubes. Alison arrives and wants to talk to him. They step outside and she tells him that what happened to Kim was partly her fault! She explains that she was at the studio with Kim when she collapsed. Bob knows Alison's concern for him is genuine, but knows he would never have made a mistake. Bob also informs her that Kim had a pre-existing heart condition and Alison's help probably saved her life. Alison thanks him for sharing the information and leaves.



Damian returns to get Meg, who laughs that Eliza has more to pack than she does. He admits that he went to see Lily and told her about the cruise. Meg is annoyed, but Damian pledges his devotion to her.



Faith asks Lily if she saw Damian's car in the driveway. Lily tells Faith about the cruise, and Faith thinks it sounds romantic. She then asks if they can meet Holden for the family vacation. Lily is overjoyed and returns inside. She notices a picture of her with Holden has fallen over and broken and gets a funny feeling.



Riley stops by the Hughes house to see Casey. He tells Casey he is a jerk and he had no right to talk to Alison the way he did! Casey thinks it is funny that Riley is telling him how to treat women and orders him to back off or he will expose his identity!



Alison goes to check on Kim and sees that she has gone into arrest! She asks the other nurse to get Bob immediately and begs Kim to stay with them! Bob rushes in and asks what happened. Bob asks who was the last one in with Kim and doesn't remember when Alison tells him he was!



Holden notices that the man has fallen asleep. Holden picks up his cell, but the man wakes up and orders Holden to pull over. They get out of the car and Holden begs for his life. The man orders him to give him his clothes. Holden doesn't want to part with his wedding ring and realizes the man is going to shoot him as soon as they get into the next town. When they get back in the car, Holden heads towards a cliff and drives right over the edge. The car explodes as it hits the ground!


Next on As The World Turns:

Alison doesn't know how she can get out of trouble without destroying Bob.

Lily informs Luke that Holden's car went off the road.

Emma asks Meg if something has happened to Holden.

Luke watches as Lily screams for Holden and Damian pulls her back and won't let her go down to the wreckage.

Good afternoon to all.

Meg is an air head, she needs to be back with Paul, they are both crazy. If Damian wants Lily back, he needs to go after her, and stop playing with air head Meg, he will leave her anyway if Holden is out of picture for a while, because Lily will need Damian to lean on, and he will be there for her, just wait and see. All have a peaceful day.

Has anyone heard anything about Holden leaving the show. I sure hope not. Damian came back for Lily and Luke, I don't think he has accepted that Luke is gay.

I hope they don't kill Holden. He's an institution on this show. I have a feeling that this is the start of Lily and Damian getting back together. Damian will be a constant in Lily and Luke's lives if anything happens to Holden.

That was stupid of Holden to run off the road. I know he was trying to escape being shot but he has risked killing himself now. He could have run into a tree or something a little less life threatening! I think Alison needs to tell someone in charge about Bob before he kills someone. She could get Riley to back her up now since he's seen Bob disoriented too.

Are they writing off Dr. Bob Hughes off the air?? I sure hope not. There are not many Hughes left on the show and that is how the show started is with the Hughes and the Stewarts. I would hate it if he did have Alzheimer or Dementia (which I think he is still to young to have). I sure do miss seeing Lisa, Bob, Kim. and Susan on the show. They need to be on more often.

I have not seen the show today, but was thinking do any of you think that maybe Damian hired the guy to go after Holden? That would clear the way for him to get back with Lily. Just a thought..Hate about Bob and hope that if he does quit the show that they do it with respect for him, he deserves that much....

Damien did not hire anyone to go after Holden. The guy is an escaped convict and now with the clothes swap, the convict will be mis-identified as Holden and Holden will be lost in Limbo for a long, long, long time. Does Hensley have another gig to go to?

Sorry, guess I thought wrong about it, but I would never underestimate Damian, he could get to an escaped convict or even make someone appear as an escaped convict....something still makes me think he just might be behind it all....but then again I have been wrong many times about storylines...

shorty, you and I are losing our touch, used to we could out guess the best of them about the plot....guess not so much anymore
