"Oopsy Daisy?"

Tracy goes to Luke and says that they need to talk about what didn't happen last night. Luke says that he's an open-minded guy and if she wants to believe that her brother is haunting her that's one thing. "But when you reach under the covers and start to noodle me…" Tracy cuts him off and thanks him for understanding. He says that it's only one night and by his count they are doing pretty well. As they kiss, Alan appears and tells Tracy that Luke isn't understanding at all, he must have found someone else! "You cheating bastard!" Tracy yells at Luke in the middle of a kiss. She continues her conversation to Alan and Luke says it sounds like her brother's ghost is working her. Monica comes in and asks why Tracy is talking to Alan's chair. Tracy comes out and tells Monica that Alan is haunting her. Alan taunts her to go ahead and tell Monica that she changed his will and that's why he's hanging around. Edward joins them and shames Tracy for intruding on Monica's grief with her delusions. Monica says that if Alan were going to haunt anyone it would be her. Tracy says that Alan is sitting in the chair right in front of her. Monica tells her to prove it, "Ask him what I like most in bed." Edward and Luke spew Brandy out of their mouths in unison. Alan turns and gives his widow a playful, sexy look.

Back at the Q mansion Tracy doesn't want to delve into her sex life with her brother, but if that's what it takes to prove that Alan is truly haunting her, she asks him Monica's question anyway. Alan tells her "Oopsy Daisy." Tracy seems grossed out at the term while Luke, Edward and Monica think she's stalling. Finally she says, "Oopsy Daisy" and Monica gasps. Luke wants to know what that means and Edward doesn't. Monica asks how Tracy could have listened outside her bedroom door all those years. She tells her to let Alan rest in peace and then leaves in a huff. Edward tells his daughter that she needs to see a shrink. She agrees because the connotations of a sex position called "oopsy daisy" are permanently seared in her brain.

The Play Date Ends Abruptly.

Luke and Tracy are getting hot and heavy on the sofa in the Q study and Alan "floats" in. Tracy screams at him and Luke tells her that she has got to get her guilty conscience under control. She reminds him that she has no conscience. Then she tells Alan that if she agrees to confess to altering the will with the help of Luke, will he go away? Luke starts to protest any such confession, but he's interrupted by a jubilant Edward who comes rushing in with a tape recorder in his hand. Edward tells Tracy that he won't use her taped admission if she agrees to give him ELQ stock. They bicker over the percentage and finally agree on 45%. Edward hands over the tape and skips out of the study. Luke is turned on by Spanky's ability to wheel and deal and as they start to kiss, Alan makes lightening strike. Tracy continues her debate with her invisible brother and Luke decides to pour himself a drink rather than attempt romance for the moment.

Maxi Sheds Some Light.

Skye arrives in the study followed by Dillon, Monica and Edward. Monica announces that she and Edward are contesting the validity of Alan's will. Jax speaks as Michael's trustee and says that Michael's interests are well served, so he has no problems with the will as it is. They all argue over whether or not to fight the will and Alan is contributing little barbs, only no one but Tracy hears them. Skye says that she might just question the will herself "if only to drag you hyenas to court." Alan proudly says, "That's my girl!" Everyone leaves, but Dillon hangs back in the doorway to hear his mother continue her argument with Alan. Finally, he says, "Mom, Uncle Alan is dead." Tracy tells her son that she knows her brother is dead. Then, as Dillon starts to sit in the chair, Tracy stops him. Dillon figures out that Tracy thinks Alan is sitting in the chair because she has a guilty conscience! Dillon says that if this gets out, she could lose her CEO title at ELQ.

Lulu Stumps Jason.

Tracy goes rushing into the Q study to pour herself a stiff drink. Before she can take a sip, Alan's ghost starts to speak to her from the chair. She admits that she tampered with his will and as she talks to him, Luke comes in for a drink too. He tells her to stop talking to the furniture. Alan says that he's perfectly welcome to haunt his own house, and Tracy reminds him that it's Monica's house. "I gave it to her," Alan says for the millionth time. Then he admits that he has tried haunting his widow but she can't hear him. Just then, Edward and Monica come in to corner Tracy and tell her they are planning to protest the will. Tracy keeps talking to Alan with things like "Shut up!" and her comments only enrage the family more. Luke snuggles up to Spanky Buns and says that she wields power very beautifully (they snuggle nose to nose in a sexy way and Alan says he doesn't want to "go there"). Monica explains that she failed Alan in life, and she won't fail him in death. As Monica (and Edward) turns to leave, Alan thanks her for her loyalty, but only Tracy can hear it.

Q's Jaws Drop.

Edward doesn't think it's fair of Luke to throw his love for Laura into Tracy's face. Tracy tells her father that she appreciates his concern, but she has come to accept Luke's feelings. Edward asks them to put their stuff aside for today so they can read Alan's will in peace. After Edward leaves, Tracy asks Luke if can embarrass her any more? Luke thinks he should get credit for thinking on his feet! "Take it easy Buttercup, you'll get what you deserve," Luke tells her as he heads out to change the will.

The Q family is gathering in the study, including Luke, Jax and Scotty. Luke whispers in Spanky Buns' ear that everything is taken care of. No one can figure out why Jax and Scott have been invited to attend. Monica says that she's not in the mood for a scene, so let him stay.
The lawyer begins to read:

*A generous amount to the La Mesa Wellness Community for breast cancer research.

*Alice gets $75,000. (Jax rushes over to shake her hand.)

*Luke gets $250, 000 for putting up with Tracy. (Luke acts deeply touched.)

At this point, Ned wonders out loud if Alan was of sound mind when he last amended the will. The lawyer proceeds:

*There is to be an inheritance in trust for Michael Corinthos III, but since Alan didn't trust his parents, he named Jasper Jax as the trustee.

*Ned gets Alan's box seats at Wimbledon as long as he never shares them with Monica. (Ned and Monica had an affair many, many years ago, so this is a funny jab.)

*Dillon gets all of Alan's home movies because if anyone can edit them into something interesting, he can.

*Skye gets Lila's ruby earrings because she doesn’t need money now that she's with Lorenzo.

*Jason gets Alan's engraved signet ring even if he never wants to wear it. He can pass it on to own son. And since he is gainfully employed as a gangster he doesn't get any money either.

*Monica gets all of his personal goods since words would never express his love anyway.

*Edward is to receive Alan's medical diploma in hopes that it will finally fill him with pride.

*Emily will get Lila's diamond necklace and no money since she is to marry the Cassidine heir.

*And finally, Alan bequeaths the rest of his estate, valuable funds and ELQ stock to his sister Tracy.

The lawyer has finished reading the will and Edward declares that it is a fake! Monica agrees because Alan would have never cut Emily out of his will. Skye points out that Tracy made out pretty well. Dillon compliments his mother for a sneaky job well done. Tracy tries to divert the attention by saying that Alice could have had a hand in it. As they bicker, Emily demands that they respect her dad's wishes. She insists that he knew that she, Jason and Skye don't need money and Tracy has been wanted his respect all of her life. "Let it rest," she orders and leaves.
They all calm down, but Luke tells Monica at least she got to keep the house. As they leave the room, Edward and Monica tell Tracy that they can't believe she and Luke deprived Alan of his last wishes. On his way out, Ned says that he'll reserve judgment because he chooses to believe that his mother could never have done such a thing. Dillon says, "Good role model, mom" and splits. Luke and Tracy are finally alone. Luke pulls her into his arms and tells her she's a big winner "ELQ stock or not". Over his shoulder, Tracy's face looks like she sees a ghost. And, she does! Alan is grinning from ear to ear, telling her to be ashamed of herself.

Mr. & Mrs. Spanky Buns Strike Again.

Edward hangs up the phone in the Quartermaine study and tells Tracy that Alan's will is to be read this afternoon. Tracy thinks it's too soon, and Edward says that it's just a formality, anyway. He says that Alan wanted to provide for his children and Emily is the only one who isn't already well off, so she will be the heir. Tracy tells Dillon that maybe her Uncle Alan has provided for his future. Dillon scoffs.

"Who's your Daddy?" a very well-dressed Luke returns to the from the lawyer's office with Alan's will. He truly makes Tracy call him "daddy" before he hands it over. So, she does. Before she opens it, they both agree that the best thing to honor Alan's memory would be to leave his will alone. But they rip it open anyway. As suspected, Alan left a generous trust to Emily, but as it turns out, she is not named as the sole beneficiary. The rest of his estate goes to Jason's children…should he have them. "We have work to do!" Tracy yells. Luke says he'll get right on it, but what does Tracy want the will to say? Tracy wants it to be worded so the whole thing goes to her, but Luke points out that will be too suspicious. So Tracy says that the will should read: "Alan loves Jason, but he has amassed a fortune through his criminal activities. Alan loves Emily and Skye, but they will both be cared for by their men." Luke thinks that Alice should be named and Tracy says that Alice is only "help". Luke suggests that Alice get fifty grand and he should be bequeathed a half million. Tracy scoffs and says that her brother didn't even like Luke! As Luke is saying that "the rest will go to you," Edward walks into the room and wonders what they are talking about. Luke covers by saying that although he will always love Laura, "The rest of his heart goes to Tracy."

The Service at "Monica's House."

As the Q's prepare for Alan's memorial, they are….bickering. Tracy is in a snit about which pictures of Alan will be displayed, and where. Monica comes in and says that there will be no pictures…anywhere. Because it's her house and Alan gave it to her! Tracy tells her sister-in-law that even though she's the grieving widow, Alan "is the man I loved and fought with long before he knew you existed," so the family can have a say in how the memorial goes. Dillon and Ned stand by and try to keep the peace without getting in the way. The arguing is brought to a stop – momentarily – as Monica smashes a picture frame onto the floor. She tells them that Alan's voice is silenced forever, but she cannot stand the sound of theirs. After she stomps out of the room, Tracy goes on about the pitiful flower arrangement that the Cerulo family sent. Edward tells her to calm down and try kindness today instead of her normal rage. Tracy comments that he sounds like Lila. Edward says that he's glad Lila didn't live to see the death of her son; instead she is welcoming him back to her.
