All Dressed in White

Wednesday, May 09 2007
Through the eyes of the wedding planner, we witness Buzz and Olivia's wedding party, Jeffrey's last attempt to apologize and Alan-Michael's plan go into work.

Belinda, the wedding planner, arrives in Olivia's room. Ava is there and is helping her get ready for the wedding. Ava begins massaging her mother's neck and brushing her hair as she throws a fit about how much she hates her makeup. She suggests that her mother settle her 'unfinished business' with Jeffrey before the big day commences so that she can be 'at peace'. Olivia has other things on her mind and searches for her shoes while she complains that she doesn't even have anything borrowed or blue. Ava gives her a medal she won in English class; her mother wasn't there to see it but now...

Meanwhile, Buzz is in a frenzy while he searches for his toasts. The wedding planner has them and hands them over. As Frank stops his father from hyperventilating, Belinda suggests that he put on some pants before he thinks of going anywhere. In the hall, she runs into Alan-Michael, who claims to be Rick, and asks for an updated itinerary for the day. When she asks him if she can help him with anything else, he tells her that he has everything he needs.

Belinda walks down the hall and finds Coop wrapping gifts in Christmas paper. Ava comes in and hands her the gifts so that she can re-wrap them. Ava offers to help Coop finish dressing; she knows that it must be awkward for him to have her there. She shows him the honeymoon plans she's set up for Buzz; she talked Alexandra into letting them use the Spaulding jet and take the bride and groom to London.

Next, we find Harley and Frank watching over the preparations. She asks him if it's hard to see his father with Olivia. He says that it's fine; he's just worried about the warning that Alan gave him about Alan-Michael. As they walk off, Belinda goes downstairs and finds Coop. She coyly asks him some questions before he walks off with Ava. Buzz tries to give a speech. He thought that he was 'retired from all of this', but then Olivia walked into his life. At first, he thought that he was just in lust with her, but he moved 'from lust, to love, to life together.' She will always be his heart. He was in a dark place until she brought the light into his life. Olivia doesn't know what to say. She sobs before she and Buzz rush off. Belinda starts to cry and Coop offers her a napkin.


Sitting with Olivia while the guests dance, Harley jokes that she is sad that she might not be able to treat her like 'her wicked stepmother'. Olivia says that she can always do that. Olivia's phone starts to ring and she walks off to answer it. It's Jeffrey. She tells him to get a life and hangs up just as Frank and Buzz drag her onto the dance floor. Later, Ava asks her mother what Jeffrey wanted. She wouldn't talk to him. Upstairs, Belinda watches Coop take Ava upstairs. She invites him into her room but he declines. They start to kiss but, as things get heated, he breaks away and tells her that it isn't right. He wants her, but being with her costs him too much and he can't be hurt again. She's determined to keep him however and pulls him into another kiss before they say goodnight. Coop turns and notices that Belinda has been watching them all along. She asks him to show her to her room. He just points down the hall and walks away while she trudges on lonely. On the way, she ends up finding Harley crying. Weddings always make her cry. As she rambles, she says that she can't believe that she sent her daughter away. 'Tomorrow her grandfather will be married and she'll be all alone...'



Down the corridor, Olivia gives Buzz an expensive watch and calls him her Don Quixote. She sends him off to bed with an 'I love you'. Belinda follows Olivia into her room and the bride-to-be asks her to take her veil away: She refuses to wear it tomorrow. As Belinda takes the veil, she notices a pile of presents on the balcony and walks out to collect them. There is a knock at the door. Expecting Buzz, Olivia answers it and finds Jeffrey standing there instead. He tells her that Ava wanted him to talk to her before the ceremony. She accuses him of being drunk. He begins telling her that he hates the past as much as she does... he's only glad to see that she moved on with her life. He really respect her; he's lost a lot of sleep thinking about what he did to her. When he asks her if she saw her baby before she gave it up, she slowly answers yes. This is something he thinks about a lot. Seeing her building something real with her daughter makes him feel... he gets lost in his words. Trying to continue, he says that 'tomorrow you will be Mrs Buzz Cooper and I'll be sober...this is the last chance...' He pulls her into a long kiss and she breaks it off. Suddenly, Belinda realizes that someone else is on the balcony: It's Alan-Michael snapping shots of Jeffrey and Olivia. He hushes her before she can say anything. Olivia tells Jeffrey that she won't let him hurt her again and runs off. Jeffrey runs after her and she begins shouting at him. Jeffrey tells her that he just wants her to be alright and be happy with Buzz. As he leaves, Belinda rushes to Olivia and asks her if she's alright. Olivia tells her that Jeffrey is the sort of man you have to stay away from. Belinda thinks that he was ruggedly cute, but there is another problem... Before she can mention it, Olivia cuts her off and runs upstairs to Buzz. As they close the bedroom door, Belinda finds Alan-Michael wandering the halls. She demands the photos, but he won't give them up. Charming her, he walks her down the hallway.



In the morning, Belinda wakes Olivia and hands her a note that Buzz left for her. She tries to explain again what she saw on the balcony last night but Ava walks in before she can. As Ava sits on her mother's bed, she tells her that Jeffrey came by and they had words. Ava hopes that this will be enough to put things behind them so that she can start afresh. Later, Belinda goes into Buzz's room while he eats breakfast. She tries to tell him about Alan-Michael but Coop arrives and starts talking to his father. Jeffrey knocks at the door and offers a gift. Coop tells him to get lost but Buzz accepts the gift; he won't shake his hand however. When Jeffrey walks away, Buzz asks Coop to throw the gift in the trash.



Belinda looks down and spots Alan-Michael handing an envelope to a waiter and asking them to make sure that Mr Cooper gets it. She rushes to Buzz's room where Coop is helping him finish dressing. The waiter comes to the door with the envelope and Belinda tells Buzz not to take it. He ignores her and opens it to see the pictures of Jeffrey and Olivia kissing. He throws her out and slams the door.


Next on GL:
The wedding turns to chaos.

Poor Buzz. He loves Olivia SO much and it's sad to see such a sweet guy get hurt like that! And I'm so proud of Coop for not hooking up with Ava when she tried to get him to go into her room. Ava was bugging me today; I think she should leave town with Alan-Michael.

All I can say is: all of the posters that use to be on daily is dwindling down. I suppose it is because the S/L of Josh/Reva/Cassie has destroyed their love for the show. Many of my friends have left. Hope the writers understand what is happening before it is too late.

I guess they don't care, but it's exactly why I quit posting, watching and reading. Every now and then, I muster up enough to look and get caught up.

3PUPPIES,
i honestly find the show quite boring. i have been watching GL for about 38 yrs and i have seen at go up and down like a roller coaster but this time, it seems like this roller coaster has stopped at the bottom and broke down b/c the show is getting worse.
I also dislike the comedy aspect brought to the show. when i watch, someone is always doing a scheme. (for example, Dinah's continuous ways of dressing up like Vanessa, etc)
come on GL, hurry up and boost the ratings b/c the show is up for renewal in July and if the ratings go down, the show will too.

WRONG!WRONG!WRONG! That's what I think of the story line today. Why can't anyone be happy that lives in Springfield??? Boy I'm glad I don't live there. Writers PLEASE don't put Ava and Coop back together, I've said this before HE is much to good for her, let her stay with Alan-Micheal. Does A/M think taking pictures of Olivia and Jeffery kissing and then sending them to Buzz was right? I know their are some dirty people in the world, but that was just WRONG! Buzz hang in there. This to shall pass.

Hey girls, I just read Micheal Dempsey (Alan- Micheal Spaulding) is leaving the show.None to soon! But I guess everyone already knew about it,that's just my luck A DAY LATE AND A DOLLAR SHORT. Even though I do wish him the best of luck in the future.

The show was so good with Jonathan. Now boring.

I don't want Alan Michael to leave but our opinions don't matter(obviously). I too am glad that Coop is resisting Ava. The Bible says that if you resist Satan, he will flee.(wishful) I hate that Buzz is hurt but I hope that he lets Olivia go. He's too good for her. I think that Frank and Belinda would be cute together. She seems a little...???

No! They can't be happy. Its a day-time drama. If they were all happy there would be no drama.
