The Hundred-Dollar Argument!

Thursday, August 28 2008
Langston hires Delphina, Tess gives Todd a warning, and Natalie wants Jared to turn down her father's offer...


Markko shows up at Dorian's to find Langston lying by the pool. After playfully throwing a glass of water on her, they argue about money and college until Madame Delphina shows up suggesting that Langston needs protection! When Langston goes to her purse to pay Delphina a hundred dollars for a reading, Markko is fuming and reminds Langston of how many tables he has to wipe for a hundred bucks! However, after Delphina reveals that Markko's real name is Geraldo Rivera, they listen as Delphina says, "There's someone close to you, a woman, with dark hair and a gorgeous smile." Delphina starts singing the Colombian national anthem then claims her mother left someone behind - a sibling! Though Langston knows her mother was an only child, Delphina asks, "Are you sure about that?" "Someone," Delphina says, "is talking about this person right now. If I hear anything more, I'll let you know." Delphina leaves.



After Bo appears in John's office, calling him 'Commish', John says, "You're the Commissioner. I was just keeping your seat warm." Bo quickly reminds John that he was fired then asks, "So what's Manning up to now - and what're we going to do about it?" Just then, the mayor appears and demands that John not take company with Bo. However, John brings up Lee - and the mayor's involvement with him - then insists that Bo be reinstated as Commissioner. The mayor agrees, but warns, "One slip up and you're out! And stay away from Manning!" The second the mayor is gone, John and Bo talk about how to uncover Todd's secrets!



Before catching their flight back to Llanview, Gigi and Rex make a stop at the Bon Jour Café. When they see Moe and Noelle, Noelle talks about how determined Gigi was to find Rex, but Moe gives Rex a hard time because he's married! After Rex assures Moe that he's committed to Gigi, he shocks Moe by describing his daddy's diner back in 1968! Rex recovers by talking about knowing the history of the café then Gigi spots Noelle's engagement ring from Moe! After Noelle and Gigi say goodbye, and catch up regarding Shane, Moe gives Rex some advice then the couple heads back to Llanview.



When Talia and the press enter the royal bedroom in Mendorra, Carlo and Jonas stir awake - and Talia yells, "My husband and father are having an affair!" As the press starts shooting them questions about approving gay marriage bills, Talia breaks down crying in grief. Carlo stands up nude and demands that Talia admit to a setup! Having had enough, Carlo screams for the press to turn the television cameras off then goes into a room - where Antonio, Talia, Cris and Sarah follow him! Although Carlo threatens to kill them all for the embarrassment, when he calls the guards to take them away no one comes, to which Antonio informs, "It's over, Hesser, I'm taking her back to Llanview." The guards finally appear, announce that the punishment for fraud is to be beheaded then they take Carlo and Jonas away.



Back in Llanview, at Carlotta's diner, Jared looks at the file containing Langston's photo until Charlie, Natalie and Carlotta arrive. After Charlie eases Carlotta's worry about Antonio with agreeing to rebuild the diner once she receives her insurance settlement, they head off to talk about new plans - leaving Jared to admit to Natalie that her father presented him with a deal! Once Natalie hears that Clint wants Jared to dig up dirt on Dorian's foster daughter, she begs him not to go after a sixteen year old then asks, "What exactly does my father want you to do to her?" Jared talks about how they plan to use Langston's uncle to get B.E. back



Still at Llanfair, when Tess denies any wrongdoings in the basement, Todd rehashes all of Viki's past deeds down there then heads for the basement! However, all Tess needs to say is 'Marty Saybrook' to stop Todd in his tracks! Todd reminds Tess that he's not hurting Marty then questions if Tess plans to 'take out' Natalie and Jared. Suddenly, Todd pushes Tess against the wall of the mansion, slaps her across the face twice, and screams, "Jessica, are you in there? It's Uncle Todd!" After a bit more pleading for Jessica to come out, Tess gets an idea, claims to be Jessica then says, "Uncle Todd… I want to come back."



Laughing Tess says, "You're the only one who could bring me back, Uncle Rod," then Todd grabs her again - but is stopped by Jared and Natalie who demand to know, "What's going on?" After Tess assures them that everything is fine, Tess gives Todd one last warning before walking away, "You don't tell my secret and I won't tell yours."



In the living room, Tina watches the news surrounding the Mendorra happenings and laughs at the sight of Jonas and Carlo in bed! Watching Talia look into the camera, bashing her father and husband left and right, Tina says, "You go girl!"



After Tina tells Natalie and Jared about the telecast involving Carlo, Natalie privately demands that Jared call Clint and tell him that he's not doing his dirty work!


Next on One Life to Live:

Tess' plans are threatened.

Todd tells Marty another huge lie!

Langston looks into her family tree!

how funny was todd slapping jessica out of tess? lol:)
if jared use langston to get back in with bo then im not going to root for him anymore. that is just low! and natalie shouldn't let him!

Uh, Clint is the one pulling the strings now. It is his idea to use Langston, not Bo.
I wish Jared would refuse too, but he thinks it will help Natalie get back in the family fold.

Only good thing about Tess lately are her scenes with Todd.

Posted by Susie1000 at Thursday, August 28 2008 01:18 PM

Hey All ~~~~ Good epi' today. I LOVED the scenes in Mendorra w/ Carlo and the 'Prince' in bed together! 'HILARIOUS!' I love the humor the writers have added to the s/l.

Jess/Tess/Todd ~~~~ The battle of 'wits' is amusing! Who can outwit who???? I can't wait for John and Bo to 'outwit' both of them! hehehe

Congrat's Commish' Bo!! Welcome back!

Rex/Gigi ~~~ I can't wait for this part of the s/l to move on and they become a 'happy' family w/ Shane. I know there's a 'battle' in the makings w/ Brody's DNA scheme and Shane not accepting that his mom lied to him his whole life. So, I'll be patient!

Langston ~~~~ I'm reserving ridiculing the s/l of Clint using her MIA Uncle to get BE back from Dorian. Dorian has never done anything 'upfront', 'open', 'honest' in all her scheme's through the years. She's never cared how many lives she destroyed in the process. I don't think this scheme to take BE back from Dorian will destroy Langston's life! Time will tell! Madame Delphina is too funny! That's it for today! JMO! Later, Love Ya's, Susie

Susie1000....I think I agree with you about Clint/Dorian/Langston. I will reserve judgement too until more of the sl plays out.

That Carlo & Jonas setup was pretty funny, but as a whole i'm disappointed with the way the great Carlo Hesser came back! The "Talia is my daughter" twist was good but he was so under utilized. I know he's older but he could have had such a better story!

Tess was so much better in the past and that is exactly where she should have stayed. If you want to bring back the DID it would have been much more interesting with Viki, considering the complete departure it is from her usually behavior. Tess is a slightly more foul-mouthed version of Jessica to me. I could do without her!

Is it just me or is OLTL lacking in the romance department? Other than Gigi/Rex all the other couples are off. Natalie/Jared started off good but got screwed up with the uncle/lies/Nash debacle. John/Blair is just sleazy for me. No romance, just sex, and the fact that Blair should be attending to her pregnant teenage daughter, her confused and bitter son, her stepson who she took from his father, & a mother who prone to do unusual things I just can't root for them.

Here's to more romance in 2009!

Cannot wait for John to get to the bottom of the Marty Todd and Tess thing. He may not talk much, but he is not stupid. As for Marty, why is she all of a sudden so gullible. Do you lose your personality along with your memory. When will she have a dream about her giving birth to Cole? What will Todd say then- writers, please move this one along.

SJohnson12....well said about Tess and Jessica. ITA!

Posted by jumps at Thursday, August 28 2008 07:48 PM

John and Blair might not be a great romance, but, IMHO, they are alot of fun! They genuinely like each other and expect nothing from each other.

Posted by jumps at Thursday, August 28 2008 07:49 PM

I really liked Natalie today. LOVED that she does not want Jared to do Clint's dirty job for him, even if it means he will never let her back into the family again. Spunky Natalie, that is who I miss!
