Destination: Tahiti!

Monday, August 24 2009
Blair closes in on Tea's secret, Marty's own issues resurface when analyzing Todd, and Viki debates running for mayor...


Blair meets Rex at Rodi's, who explains he found Ross Rayburn - but nothing more about his connection to Tea. Blair is positive that she's very close to finding out Tea's secret and listens intently as Rex says that Ross was located in Tahiti. Rex worries that Blair could be in danger by going to see Ross - and that the secret could ruin Blair's life - but Blair demands they get on the next flight to Tahiti. Rex explains that he can't go now but will make plans as soon as he can.



Still at Todd's, though Tea tells Elijah that she can't give Ross what he wants, Elijah reminds her of how her life would change if Todd knew what she'd done! Crying, Tea agrees Todd would never forgive her then reminds Elijah that if Ross exposes her, he'll never get what he wants. "It ends here," Tea says then tries to throw Elijah out, who reminds Tea that Ross can't stand Todd - since he's the reason why he can't get back into the country, after their past botched kidnapping attempt on Todd's kids. Tea would love to send Ross to prison then tells Elijah to give Ross a message - but Ross dials a number on his cell and hands the phone to Tea, who says, "Hello Ross." Tea warns Ross that she'll 'push him right back', hands the phone to Elijah then waits until he hangs up. Again, Tea cries and begs Elijah not to tell Todd anything, but he just replies, "I'll see you in court."



Agreeing to be his doctor, Marty reminds Todd that he has one more court-mandated session then says, "You're on the clock." Finally, Todd replies, "What's a little mind-screw among friends," then lies down, as Marty questions why Todd had sex with Blair while claiming to love Tea. Todd finally opens up, revisits the time when he and Tea got close while stranded on a desert island - but says that Blair always gets in the way. Over talk of Blair, Marty thinks Todd is afraid to totally give someone 'his all', leading Todd to admit that he did that once - with Marty - and look how that turned out. Marty thinks of her own issues with John then tells Todd that if he doesn't put their past behind him he'll never be able to move forward with a future love - causing Todd to wonder if she's talking about him, or herself! Marty tells him to think what he wants, leading Todd to agree with her, then she signs his court sheet. Before he leaves, Todd says, "I don't want to be in your head or be the reason you can't move on with John. I hope you can."



Alone, Marty opens the lunchbox and starts happily eating the lunch that John packed for her.



When Todd arrives home, he finds Tea leaving - with her suitcases packed!



When Dorian tempts Viki to run for mayor, while still at the press conference, by saying she'd lose against Mayor Lowell, Charlie storms in and confronts the mayor for having his worksite shut down then Dorian covers for the mayor by leading the press away.



In private, Viki admits that the mayor shut Charlie down because of her argument with him then informs Charlie that Dorian is buttering up to the mayor in order to get her old job back - as Chief of Staff at the hospital. When Charlie hears about Dorian's suggestion that Viki run for mayor, he's all for it - but Viki thinks it's silly. As she proceeds to discuss all of the mayor's wrongdoings, and the current troubles in Llanview, Charlie smiles, knowing she's the perfect candidate for the job!



Across the room, the mayor thanks Dorian for her support, who wants to host a fundraiser for him. The mayor hands Dorian his assistant's contact info then Dorian suggests they have dinner soon - to talk about some of her own ideas.


Shortly after, Dorian arrives at the mansion and is shocked to hear that Blair is planning to leave for Tahiti!


Gigi runs into Schuyler at the pier, who walks away - even as Gigi follows - and insists that they can still be friends. When Gigi finds out that Rex suggested that he leave town, she's upset, but Schuyler says he doesn't blame Rex. "I'd do the same thing," Schuyler says. Over talk of his mom, and why he came to Llanview, Schuyler wonders if it'd be best for everyone if he left - but Gigi replies, "Not for me!" Gigi explains that she'd miss him - and that she promised Rex that nothing more would happen between them - but Schuyler admits that he can't stop thinking about her - or about kissing her again! Gigi admits she cares about Schuyler, a lot, but says she wants to be with Rex. Schuyler wants Gigi to be happy but hopes she understands why they need to put some space between them.



At the loft, Kim gives Stacy some unneeded pointers for how to get Schuyler in the sack, but Stacy worries about getting past Schuyler's feelings for Gigi - and how she'll get him to have sex with her 'tonight'. Kim suggests Stacy drug him - and hands her some pills!



Gigi meets Rex at Rodi's, tells him about what Schuyler told her then reminds Rex that they were supposed to be a united front!



When Schuyler gets home, he starts trashing his apartment in frustration - until Stacy appears at his door! After reminding Schuyler that he called her, Stacy sees the trashed room, leading Schuyler to rant about his troubles with Gigi. Schuyler admits he called her to try to help her but says he needs help himself - and Stacy holds him close, saying, "Maybe we could help each other." Later, while Schuyler lies down, Stacy drugs his ice tea!



Next on One Life to Live:

Blair knows she belongs with Todd.

Todd puts his heart out there.

Schuyler is lured into Stacy's trap.

I sure wish I could analyze Todd on my sofa. Marty you are one lucky girl.

I think Marty was shrinking heself and not Todd. I'm glad Todd asked her is this my session or yours. It was nice of Todd to say he didn't want to be in her head and the reason she can't move on with her life. He is such a sweetie pie. Hopefully Marty will be able to move on now.

And Blair she just takes a flight to Tahiti. What about her precious kids she always talking about. Give Todd custody, please.

It's been nice talking with all of you on this board, but this will be my last post. Having Marty analyze Todd is the last straw for me. I'm done with OLTL (or the "It's all about Todd Show" as it should be called). As if it's not bad enough that they had Todd kidnap Marty when she lost her memory, withhold the truth about their past from her, actually maniuplate her into having feelings for the man Marty thought Todd was (because we all know he's not that man he was pretending to be with Marty) and then have Marty actually have holdover feelings for her RAPIST - who violated her again by getting her to sleep with him under very, very, very false pretenses (to me, that was rape all over again because Marty would never have consented if she knew the truth about Todd), now TPTB want us to believe that she'd EVER help him with his court ordered therapy? If I'm insulted by the way the writers handle the legal storylines on the show, I can only imagine how insulted psychiatirsts and psychologists everywhere are about this ridiculous plot "twist" - oh it's twisted alright.

Maybe someday OLTL will get better writers who don't feel the need to marginalize women, rape and the trauma that act creates. Maybe then I can start watching (or even reading the recaps) again. Until then, I'm done.

Yep very nice of the rapist to tell his victim, she hopes she can get him out of her head and move on. Very big of him.

GMAB....parents go out of town all the time and leave their kids with family.

The Tea and Elijah scenes sound very interesting. My curiosity is peaked!
