ANOTHER WORLD DAILY SYNOPSIS.

September 1, 1986

Cass told Florette how much he'd missed Kathleen while he was away. He is preparing for a joyous reunion in the dockhouse.

Reginald told Marissa she should have stayed at the Hacienda. She said she wanted to be with him. She asked what was going on. Michael asked to be introduced.

Donna heard on the news that Marley and Jake were in the middle of a hurricane.

Marley inspected Jake. She was relieved to see that he was alive although unconscious. She begged him to survive.

The Carrot refused. Mary introduced herself. Michael introduced himself. Mary recognised him as a man who said Bad Things about her husband. Adam appeared. She doesn't like him either. The Carrot and his wife left. A message came from Donna about the hurricane. Michael said he was on his way.

MJ and Cheryl teased Kathleen about missing Cass. Cheryl thanks it's romantic. Kathleen says it's agony. Cass crept up behind her and said he loved her. She wheeled around and glued her lips to his.

Mary tried to find out from Reginald what was going on. Reginald promised to explain later.

Michael assured Donna Jake and Marley would be fine. They're frightened.

Marley told Jake she'd take care of him. She told him she loved him. Jake grinned as she flung herself sobbing on his chest. When she turned to look at his face he rearranged it into the unemotional mask of a butler, oyster, or other unconscious-type being. She went to get a lantern. He opened his eyes and looked well-contented.

Cheryl was impressed and asked Cass about all the incredible things she'd heard. MJ dragged her away. Cass said he hadn't eaten. Cheryl shoved a menu at him. Cass explained that he and Kathleen had a special celebration waiting for them. She understood and didn't insist on the 22 autographs.

At the hotel Mary asked where Scott was. The Carrot said he was hiding from publicity. He wants to keep her a secret. He said Scott had left town and gone heaven knew where. Gomez left them alone. Mary demanded answers.

Donna and Michael looked on the bright side. Michael told her Reginald's wife had flown in from Paraguay. Donna was astonished. She said she didn't want to talk about her father.

Jake shut his eyes when Marley came and knelt beside him. She told him again she loved him and wanted to marry him. He miraculously came round and said "did you say you wanted to marry me?" Marley was thrilled until he revealed he been listening all along. Then she hit him. He looks disgustingly healthy. She said she thought the storm was over. He told her it was just the eye of the hurricane.

Marissa demanded the truth. The Carrot admitted to being Reginald Love. He told her he'd gone to Paraguay to escape his enemies. He said they'd gone to Paraguay after her accident (hit and run, he said. Try drowning) because he suspected he was the target. He'd been leading a double life already so he set her up at the Hacienda and went to Egypt to die. He made it clean break with his family and returned to his love. He asked her to forgive him lying.

Cass and Kathleen went to the dockhouse. They have white wine, strawberries, brie, and vast quantities of money. Last but not least, sex.

MJ was absorbed in a book when Adam walked into Mary's Place. She wouldn't show it to him because it would be EMBARRASSING [smut]. He suggested she skip the fantasy and go straight for the real thing – him. She got weird. Adam : MJ, why is it that every time we bring up the subject of sex, you just start to back off? MJ: you didn't bring up the subject of sex. You were trying to embarrass me. Enter Cheryl. Adam: MJ and I were just talking about sex. MJ: we were not. Cheryl: excuse me, I didn't mean to interrupt anything. MJ: you didn't interrupt, really. Adam: yes, you did. We were having a Sexual Conversation. Cheryl: I'll come back later, OK? Adam: no, wait a minute, Cheryl. I want to ask your opinion about something. Do you think it's WRONG to have a Sexual Conversation? Cheryl: I don't think my sister wants me to have an opinion. MJ: GOOD ANSWER. Cheryl: you know, I think it's terrific. Adam: SEE? Cheryl: I mean, I think it's terrific to see my sisters with their guys. It's really fun. MJ: I'm glad SOMEBODY'S having fun. Cheryl: the only problem is, every sister has a guy but me.

Marissa was upset the Carrot hadn't confided in her. He admitted that he had done some of the things mentioned in the magazine but it was just sensational journalism. He said he was afraid of losing her and embraced her.

The Sheriff got through to Jake and Marley to say the storm was over. They elected to stay put. Loving embrace.

Cass and Kathleen lounged about in bed. He told her life would be swell. Cass: total indulgence. There will be no compromising. Kathleen: and no taxation without representation. They discussed the nature of love. [Symposium.] More matter with less art, said Kathleen.

Mary put on a hideous nightdress and apologised to the Carrot for having been self centered. He forgave her. He assured her she knew the whole truth now. Kissing.

Michael and Donna rejoiced to hear Jake and Marley were fine. Donna maligned Jake. He accused her tongue of saying things her brain didn't mean. He convinced her to say something nice about Jake. She managed to say "he's nice". He was proud of her.

Marley: you are sleeping on the bed. Jake: I am sleeping in the chair. Marley: no, because I am sleeping in the chair. Jake: why are you so STUBBORN? Marley: because you hit your head, remember? I know it's still aching so just lie down and shut up. Jake: you're getting very bossy all of a sudden. Marley: I know, I'm very bossy. It's because I want to take good care of you. * Go to sleep. Jake: I love you. Marley: you made it, Jake. We can do anything. Jake: anything. (Kissing.) You said you wanted to marry me. Marley: it doesn't matter what I say. What do you say?

* THE CARE AND FEEDING OF THE INFIRM MAN:

You don't necessarily have to marry a man any more to get him in sickness and in health. Even if you're Just Spending A Lot Of Time Together, there's a good chance that the next time the man in your life drops in his tracks – from the flu, food poisoning, softening of the arteries – you will be elected to play Florence Nightingale. You can pick one of many reasons for this: 1) adversity brings people closer together; 2) men are more willing these days to admit to physical weakness; 3) if you don't do it, someone else will. Men are often extremely alluring when they can't move their extremities.
