JESSICA/TESS/BESS BRENNAN'S HISTORY
Born in 1986, Jessica Buchanan was kidnapped as a baby and switched at birth with a twin who her mother didn't even know she had! Once returned safe and sound, she went on to grow up as a Buchanan. Jessica was known as a bright child and would grow up to be a teenager who always did the right thing.
When Jessica met Cristian Vega it was love at first sight. However, when Cris's childhood friend, Roseanne Delgado, came to town, Cris and Jessica's relationship took a turn for the worse. Out of jealousy for Roseanne, Jess threw herself into the arms of Will Rappaport and later became pregnant with his child.
Amazingly, Cris eventually forgave Jessica and asked her to marry him, expressing his desire to help her raise Will's baby. At their engagement party, Cris and Will got in an argument and Jessica ran out into the path of Dorian Lord's headlights. The injuries from the accident caused Jessica to lose her baby and put her in a coma for months. When she finally came around, she couldn't remember Cris and once again grew closer to Will. In the end, Will didn't turn out to be the right guy for Jess.
It wasn't until much later that Jessica learned that Mitch Laurence raped her mother and in turn was her biological father. After Natalie, her long lost twin sister, Viki and Clint's real daughter, came to town, Jessica's life spun wildly out of control. Her deranged father, Mitch Lawrence, kidnapped Jessica and held her captive until Antonio Vega came to her rescue! From there, Jessica and Antonio fell in love but had their fair share of bumps along the way.
Although she's faced many demons in her life, most recently, Jessica was diagnosed with the same illness as her mother, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Her alter personality, Tess, led Jessica down some pretty rough paths, but, in the end, she was able to fully integrate. However, Jessica still finds parts of Tess reemerging from time to time. Although she found happiness and married Antonio Vega, Tess's lingering feelings for Nash Brennan - the father of her child, the man who loved 'Tess' when no one else did - have drawn Jessica into Nash's arms. Torn between two men, Jessica was faced with a decision to stay with her husband or to give in to the passion and newly found love for Nash, which she did. Nash and Jess married and set out on their dream for a vineyard.
After Nash found himself in too deep with a business associate, he was forced to accept an offer from Jared Banks, one that would allow the Buchanan money to save his vineyard. However, after it was revealed that Jared wasn't really a Buchanan, Nash was informed that he'd lost the vineyard, which in turn caused a fight between Nash and Jared - that landed Nash over an edge and through a skylight at The Palace, leading to his death.
Sadly, Tess reemerged, locked Natalie and Jared in a secret room in Llanfair, then ended up losing her baby! Then came Bess, Jessica's latest personality, who vowed to clean up all of the mess...

Thursday, December 04 2008: Blown Away By Guilt!
At St. Ann's, Tess emerges and demands to know why they gave Jessica the wrong baby! Tess goes on to explain that she remembers the baby she gave birth to - and it wasn't the one in the nursery now! Tess leans in close, steals the doctor's keys then makes her way out of the locked room!
Out in the hallway, Tess runs into Brody and says, "What do we have here?" Brody is confused by Jessica's actions! When Dr. Bonner comes out, with an orderly, Tess hits on Brody then leans in and begs him to get her out of there - in order to find her baby! Not wanting to get involved, Brody steps back, and the doctor demands to talk to Bess - who comes out, apologizes to Brody for Tess's actions and asks him to disregard everything Tess said! "Tess gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby girl," Bess assures them all. Once the doctor summonses Jessica back out, Jessica is confused to see Brody there, who excuses himself, then Jessica follows Dr. Bonner back into his office - and is even more confused by Tess's claim that her baby isn't hers, saying that's exactly what Tess told her mother as well!
Later, when Jessica runs into Brody in the hallway, she apologizes, to which Brody says, "I just wish I could've helped." When the doctor comes out, Jessica wishes Brody luck on his first session.

Over talk of Bess, Jessica wonders, "Why does she exist?" The doctor suggests asking Bess, to which Jessica agrees to hypnosis! Lying on the couch, the doctor summonses Bess, who comes through, stands up, takes the doctor's glasses, puts them on then says, "What can I do for you, Doctor?" Though the doctor questions why Bess is there, Bess remembers switching the babies then claims that Jessica belongs home with her family - not at St. Ann's. "What are you protecting Jessica from, Bess?" The doctor asks. "What are you so desperate to hide?" Bess calmly tells Dr. Bonner, "No one controls me," but the doctor replies, "I do." Suddenly, Tess comes out demanding, "What are you doing about the fact that they gave Jessica the wrong baby?"
