Jamie met Mac. He was so desperate for coffee that he stole some from Nancy's tray while she was kissing Greg, thereby upsetting the balance and causing the whole thing to fall. Nancy got upset.
Victoria saw Michael to bed. Catlin dropped by. Michael gave him a tastefully-wrapped parcel for Reginald.
Reginald sat with Mary.
MJ fretted about the effect of having Lazarus for a mother on Cheryl. Enter Vince with a rifle. MJ reasoned with him. Cass helped. Vince said Reginald was evil and Mary would come back if he weren't there. MJ managed to convince him to give up the rifle.
Nancy introduced Jamie to Greg. Jamie retired to his corner with Mac to chat about Rachel and Mitch. Mac said it wasn't easy but he could handle it.
Nancy refused to go to a concert with Greg because she has to study. He was put out.
Reginald insisted he loved Mary. She said that didn't explain anything. She demanded the truth. He was forced to admit he had made up her life himself. He insisted that he loved her. She seemed to think that might not be good enough.
Brittany chatted with Michael. Enter Victoria. Exit Brittany. Michael told Victoria Reginald was using her to bug him and Donna. He told her she would be working for him.
Reginald suggested they begin again with total honesty. She said she couldn't trust him anymore. Catlin arrived. Mary told Reginald she was moving out. Reginald was not pleased to see him. Catlin gave him the present and chatted about Sally. He was not friendly. He left. The gift was the emergency handle from Michaels plane. The Carrot told Scott Mary was moving out. He seemed quite distressed.
Zach Edwards waited for Quinn in Mary's Place. Nancy told him Quinn had been and gone.
Brittany and baby wandered into Mary's Place. Jamie poked and prodded them and chatted about Peter. She insisted everything was fine, clutching her purse.
Cheryl is a little weird this morning. She left for work. Mac dropped by to be nice to Vince. MJ and Cass chatted. MJ decided to go ask her mother why she was pretending not to recognise them. Cass followed.
Reginald raved about Mary. He asked Scott to help him. Mary cruised through and asked again for an explanation. The Carrot said they had met, fallen in love, and had an affair. Mary decided to abandon her family. Since it was such a difficult decision she was upset. She went overboard. She was secretly recovered and sent to hospital. When she came to she had amnesia. He decided to spare her the pain of knowing what she had left behind. The accident had left Mary sterile (good accident. I'm impressed) so they adopted Scott. It was love at first sight for Reginald. Mary is his whole life, he says.
Michael gave Victoria a little bitty teeny tiny menial job and insisted she take it.
Brittany assured Jamie she wasn't hung up on Catlin. Jamie assured her Catlin seeming to lunch with a woman probably meant nothing and if she did still love him she should talk about it. She rushed off.
Quinn arrived at Mary's Place. She was cross with Zach and accused him of being late on this occasion and failing to show on another. He proved that she had remembered the time wrong this time and the place wrong last time. (I was steamed. I may not like Quinn, but she is a Serious Businesswoman and would not do something like that twice.) The worst part is he's not even Mitch's parole officer now. She asked him to contact the new guy for her.
The Reginald/Mary affair lasted several months. Vince didn't know. Reginald kept the knowledge of her children from her to avoid the competition. Mary decided not to go. Reginald was thrilled. Mary said she had to see her children. MJ and Cass arrived.
Nancy forced Cheryl to go upstairs and rest. Greg cruised in with a bimbo who called him honey.
MJ wept and begged Mary to tell her she didn't have amnesia. She can't believe anyone could have amnesia for seventeen years. Reginald agreed to have in her doctor. Mary insisted on phoning Vince.
Cheryl ran into Scott and took fits. He told her Reginald loved Mary. She said Vince loved Mary too. Then she lost control.
