Nick suspects that Minx was the one behind the mysterious phone call to Glenn Wallace, and not Augusta as he thought at first. He shares his thought with Brick, who tells him he doesn't believe that Minx would try to harm him, but Nick reveales that he has also found out that someone made sure there was a kidney available for Brick if he needed it. Nick thinks that Minx was trying to prevent Brick's father from meeting him.

Kirk tells Eden all about his relationship with his father, Jack Lee, hoping it will help him get the job at "Capwell Enterprises". He was the result of a teenage-romance between Jack and some woman, and he only knew his father when he was 15. After a conversation over the phone with Jack, Eden finally decides to hire Kirk. "Well, that takes care of round one" says Kirk to himself satisfied after Eden tells him the good news over the phone.

Episode 303

Eden's nightmares continue to haunt her. She dreams that CC begs her to let him die.

The D.A. office informs the Capwells that Sophia's trial is about to begin. Jack Lee (he's in Washington DC, we don't see him, Kirk and Eden are in contact with him) thinks that there is no chance for Sophia to win the case, especially since CC is in a coma and can't testify that he was the one who loaded the gun. Kirk and Cruz think that it is best if Sophia will plain guilty and make a deal with the D.A., but Sophia insists on a fight in court in order to clear her name. Eden and Kelly tell her that if she will go to court they will do everything they can to help her, but they want her to at least think about the possibility of a bargain. Sophia agrees.

Nick feels he can't compete with Kelly's love for Joe, and he starts shouting at Kelly for no reason. When she asks him for the real reason, he confesses that he saw her writing the letter to Joe, and then she sends him to Joe's grave, where he reads the letter. Nick understands now that Kelly is in love with him.

Eden tries to pull some strings in order to get Cruz back on the police force. When he finds out about it, he gets angry at her.

Mason lies to Brandon and doesn't tell him that Santana is his mother. Gina thanks Mason, but he tells her that he did it only for Brandon's sake. When she tries to seduce him, he tells her that first he wants her to bring CC's will. Gina brings the will and they burn it, but what Mason doesn't know is that Gina made a copy of the will, and she still has it.

Episode 304

Eden is having another nightmare, and she hurries to the Capwell mansion to be in CC's room. When Kirk enters, an upset Eden embraces him strongly. Kirk is a bit surprised, but he calms Eden down. He tells her that he likes her and wants to get to know her better, and that she can turn to him for help in anytime. Eden thanks him and tells him that she also likes him. Gina hears their conversation.

Nick returns from Joe's grave, and asks Kelly if she really meant what was written on the letter. "Every word" Kelly replies. Nick kisses Kelly, and soon afterwards they make passionate love. Kelly's publisher comes to Nick's apartment, and tells Nick and Kelly that he won't publish Nick's book because he should have already finished writing it and the deadline passed, but they convince him to read the first chapter. The publisher is greatly impressed by it, and promises Nick he will publish the book when he finishes it.

Sophia's hearing begins. Mason and Cruz fail to convince the D.A. to make a bargain with Sophia and not take the case to court. The D.A. thinks that anyone who took a life, even if it wasn't deliberately, should do time in jail, but after he talks to Sophia herself, who tells him she is ready to go to court and that she will never forgive herself for killing her beloved son, he finally agrees to make a bargain: Sophia will spend 10 hours a week for 2 years doing community service. Sophia bursts into tears and thanks him. Channing's murder case is closed.

Gina asks one of CC's nurses to explain her how the emergancy system works. The nurse tells her she has nothing to worry about, as she checks this system frequently to make sure it will work properly in a time of need.

Brick blames Amy that if he wasn't hurt she would have never come back to Santa Barbara for him. Amy denies that, and tells him she would have come back anyway, since she loves him.

Episode 305

A part of CC's life-support system starts to malfunction, and an alarm sound is heard from CC's room, while Eden is in there. A nurse comes right away and fixes the machine, saying that it was nothing serious, but Eden is shocked to find out that she actually felt relieved when the alarm started. Cruz tries to calm her down, but Eden's guilt feelings about not fulfilling daddy's wish to die peacefully just seem to grow stronger.

Aýmy saves Johnny from the black spider, and Brick is taken to the hospital. After a few long hours of expectation, the doctor finally tells Amy some very good news: The metal plate that was stuck in Brick's back got loose "thanks" to his fall, and Brick will fully recover, and will be able to walk again. However, when Brick is carried out of the surgery room, he tells Amy that now she has no reason of staying in Santa Barbara. She should go back to New Steiland with Johnny.

Nick comes up with an interesting assumption about Minx's phone call to Glenn Wallace: Maybe he's not Brick's real father and she was trying to hide it.

Kirk is determined to get a higher rank at "Capwell Enterprises", buts his ego gets in the way: He critisizes Eden about 2 deals that she is about to make, and tells her she should hire him as her business consultant, since she can't make such big decisions on her own and she needs an expert's advice. Eden gets angry of Kirk's arrogence, and when he comes back from the beach, after drawing his new and improved employment contract with the help of Julia, to the Capwell mansion, she fires him in the presence of Cruz. Now it's Kirk's turn to get angry. He tells Eden she is making a very big mistake. Eden and Cruz ask him to leave, and Kirk throws some insults at Cruz and asks him to stay out of it. Kirk asks Eden whether she changed her mind about the deals, and she tells him she didn't and she knows CC would do the same. Kirk tells her that she is wrong. Kirk pretends he's walking out of the mansion, but he stays near the front door when the phone rings. Eden answers, and Kirk picks up the phone and listens. It is a stock man, who tells Eden that her decision to sell the stocks is wrong. Eden insists of selling, and Kirk suddenly enters the conversation and tells the man that he will buy them, no matter what the price is. Eden is furious, and tells Kirk to get out. Kirk tells her that he just tried to stop her from doing a wrong and harmful decision. Before he leaves, Kirk promises Eden that she will call him in the next 24 hours and beg him to sign the contract. "You won't hear from me even in 24 years" Eden shouts, but Kirk, very sure of himself, tells her that he'll be waiting.

The State Department starts to harass Nick about his brother. It seems that Dylan has troubles with the law, and Nick is the least happy about it. Janice, who is also wanted by the department, hides in the Lockridge mansion. Warren helps keep the policemen away from her, but when he asks her why is she wanted by the State Department, all she says is that she is protecting a very close friend. "A boyfriendþ?" Warren insists. "No. More then that" Janice replies. Meanwhile, we finally see Dylan. He's on a plane on his way to Santa Barbara, sure that Nick will help him. He is holding what seens to be a quite large piece of gold in his hand. Dylan's fuel meter reaches its dangerous edge as Dylan approaches Santa Barbara. He can see the land, but it is clear to him that he won't make it. "Let's hope the water is not too cold today and there aren't any sharks around" Dylan says to himself as he is getting ready to land his plane on the water.

The episode ends with Julia jogging on the beach. Suddenly, she sees something in the far horizon. When the camera closes in, it is clear that someone is swimming rapidly towards the shore...

Episode 306

Danny Andrede, Santana's younger brother, gets into trouble with Angel's gang. Angel claims that Danny tried to have him and his gang arrested, and promises to get back at him. Soon afterwards, Danny is brought to Mary's clinic after he got bitten up by Angel's gang. Angel comes into the clinic and threatens to hurt Danny again. Danny decides to turn to Cruz for help, but gets disappointed when Cruz notifies him that he's no longer a cop. Cruz feels bad about not being able to help Danny.

Mason asks Mary to dinner, but she already have plans for the night: she is working at the clinic. Mason decides to come over to the clinic and help her. Before leaving the clinic for a dinner break, their eyes meet in a prolonged look and they kiss.

Gina keeps taking notes of the nurses' actions and the medical equipment surrounding CC. She also starts pressuring Eden by telling her she should do what CC asked her to, since he has no chance of recovering. She checks how fast the nurses operate on an emergency situation, by interrupting CC's respirator machine. "This is probably very confusing for you, but don't worry. You'll know what I'm up to soon enough" - says Gina with a devious smile to a pale and unconscious CC.

Dylan swims safely to the shore, and heads towards the city, with Julia following him curiously. Dylan earns some money after fooling Angel, and he almost gets into a fight with his gang, but he manages to scare them off. Julia, who was watching the whole thing, asks him if he was swimming all the way from Japan. Dylan tells her that he came from Africa. When Julia comes back to her car which is parked near the beach, she is surprised to find Dylan taking a nap in the back seat. Julia wants him to get out, but Dylan convinces her to drive him to the cheapest motel. When they reach the model, Dylan asks Julia for one last favor: Since he has only his short pants on him, he is sure he won't be allowed to rent a room. Julia agrees to rent a room for him, and then she reminds him that he hasn't even told her his name. Dylan tells her his name is Tom, and Julia tells him her name is Helen. Policemen come into the motel, and show Dylan's photo to the reception man, asking him if he has seen this man recently. He tells them he has never seen him. After helping him sneak into the motel room, Julia wants to leave, but Dylan asks her to close the window, as he is very tired and can't do it himself. While Julia is closing the window, Dylan takes out of her purse what looks like an address book, and hides it quickly under the bed. After Julia leaves, Dylan takes the book out and finds Julia's name in it. "Well Julia, I'm sure we'll meet again" smiles Dylan to himself satisfied.

Episode 307

Cruz and Eden are having a tough argument. Cruz thinks that CC had no right to ask Eden to end his life. He knew how hard it will be for her and he was thinking only about himself. Eden defends CC by saying he was only thinking of his family, and he didn't want to be a bargain on their shoulders. Eden gets more and more convinced that she should fulfill her father's request.

Eden enters CC's room - and is surprised not to find CC there. Gina informs her that CC was taken to the hospital to go through some tests. Eden is shocked and embarrased again to find out that she felt relieved when she didn't see CC in the room, since she thought he died.

Mason and Gina take advantage of CC's absence and start toying around with CC's medical equipment (these scenes were quite funny :). Mary is surprised to find them in the room, and is angry at them for playing with the crucial equipment. She can't believe that Mason and Gina did something that might harm the condition of CC. This causes Mary to re-evaluate her relationship with Mason.

Julia returns to Dylan's motel the next morning to bring him some clothes, and finds her stolen address book. Dylan admits that he wanted to make sure Julia would come back. When Julia is getting ready to leave, Dylan asks her a favour: He has to find his brother who lives in the area, and he wants Julia to find him and arrange a meeting. Julia understands that Dylan is in trouble, and demands to know more details. Dylan finally tells her his real name and asks her to find Nick Hartley. Julia arranges the meeting at the beach, and the two brothers are happy and excited to meet again. The initial joy turns into a loud argument when they reach Nick's place. Nick is angry at Dylan for using him to get money he worked hard for. Dylan promises he will pay Nick back, and hands him the piece of gold. When Nick wants to know where Dylan got it from, and why is the state department looking for him, Dylan tells him he can't say much, but he has found a gold mine in Africa, and the only thing that keeps him away from owning it is the Mafia.

Mason informs Eden that she has lost a million dollars when she sold the stocks. He hands her the newspaper, where she reads about the sharp raise of her stocks. Eden realizes now that Kirk was right. She goes to meet him in an old wine cellar he had just bought, and asks him to regain his position at Capwell Enterprises, and he galdly accepts the offer. When Eden tries to exit the wine cellar, the door is stuck. Kirk seems happy about it, and offers a nervous Eden some wine. He calms her down saying that it won't be long when they will be freed. Meanwhile, Cruz is getting worried when Eden doesn't show up for their meeting, and he decides to go over to the wine cellar and see what is taking her so long.

Episode 308

While they are still stuck in the wine cellar, Kirk tells Eden about his tough childhood. He gets very nervous and suddenly changes the subject. Eden tells him about her nightmares, and gets surprised when Kirk tells her he thinks she should end CC's life. In Kirk's opinion, everyone has a right to choose how to end his own life. Eden tells him what Cruz thinks. Kirk decides to be cautious, and tells her that it is her decision to make, and that she should be very careful if she decides to operate, as it is against the law, and she could get in a lot of trouble. Their conversation is interrupted by Cruz's shouts. Cruz easily opens the stuck door, and embraces Eden, than they walk away, without paying any attention to Kirk, who is obviously offended by this.

Mason asks Mary for lunch. He arrives to the restaurant first, and starts flirting with Janice, when a surprised Mary enters the restaurant. Mason apologizes. Later, when they sit down, Mary tells Mason that she will never be as attractive as someone like Janice. Mason, however, thinks that Mary's natural beauty is unbeatable. Mary is very happy to be given such a compliment. Their lunch is interrupted by the arrival of Danny Andrede, who got bitten up again. They go to the clinic, where Danny is taken care of. Mason and Mary are having a conversation in the clinic, when flowers arrive for Mary. The card reads "Mason". Mary thanks him with a passionate kiss.

Nick hides Dylan in a motel, and the two brothers keep arguing about the money Dylan got from Nick and his parents when they thought he was in medical school. Dylan promises to make Nick a rich man, but first he has to return to Africa and claim the gold mine. Nick is followed by the state department men, but manages to fool them and bring Janice to Dylan's room and reunite the two lovers.

The doctor who examined CC tells Eden that there is absolutely no change in his condition, and his chances of getting better are slim. When Gina wants to know about CC's condition, Eden lies to her by telling her CC's condition has improved, but Gina notices how nervous and concerned Eden is, and understands she is lying. Gina asks Rosa what are Eden's nightmares about, and Rosa tells her Eden dreams about pulling the plug on CC while wearing the dress CC likes the most. Gina is obviously planning a scheme against Eden. Later Rosa finds the dress in the garbage, and brings it back to Eden, who tells her to get rid of it. She doesn't want to see that dress near her. Gina sends Rosa to the kitchen and gets the dress. "It's not exactly my style, but it's ought to do the job" - smiles Gina deviously...ý

After Sophia and Eden leave the room, Mason stays as he wants to discuss with Gina what should they do if CC wakes up. "Don't worry, he won't" - calms him Gina. Mason can't understand why Gina is so sure of it. He has a feeling she's up to something. Eden is looking for the pink dress, and asks Gina if she saw it, but Gina says she never did.

Brick and Amy are engaged, but Brick also deals with two major surprises this episode: Warren finds that large amounts of money were transferred from the Lockridge bank account to a Swiss account registered under Brick's name, and Brick is sure it is a misunderstanding. (This is actually Augusta's doing: She had Brick sign the transfer papers when he was blurred out in the hospital. She wants to force Brick to leave town). The other surprise comes from Nick, who after comparing Brick and Glenn Wallace's blood types, informs a shocked Brick that there is no chance that Glenn is his biological father.

Cruz ignores Kirk and offers Eden to have breakfast with her. He then gets an urgent call from the Mary's clinic, and leaves. Kirk offers Eden to replace Cruz's place in the breakfast. Eden agrees. Kirk tells Eden that he noticed Cruz doesn't like him, and he thinks it's because he feels threatened by his relationship with Eden.

Dylan continues to pursuit Kelly. He arrives at the art museum where Kelly is working, and wonders what people find in all the strange shapes and paintings. He takes two cans, sticks them together with a gum, and puts them on a table. Then he goes to Kelly and starts flirting with her to her dismay. He asks her how much the statue he made costs in her opinion. Kelly, without knowing it was made by him two minutes ago, tells him confidently that it is worth at least 10,000$. Dylan bets with her that it is worth nothing. If he wins, he will take her to dinner. If she wins, he won't bother her ever again. Kelly goes to call an expert, and Dylan takes something out of her purse while she's gone. Kelly returns with the expert, who says it is worth a fortune. Dylan is surprised yet amused. Later that same expert orders to clear the garbage from the table. Kelly asks Dylan to leave since she has won, but he continues to harass her. She tells him she has a boyfriend.

Dylan calms her down and assures his love for her. Later at Nick's apartment, Kelly confesses to Nick that she met Dylan before and didn't know he was Nick's brother. Nick is amused to hear that, but warns Kelly not to hang around Dylan too much, because it might get her in troubles. Meanwhile, Dylan goes to the beach alone and watches lovers kissing on the shore. It is clear that he feels lonely, probably because he fell in love with Kelly.

They start to argue, and Brick tells her he knows that she phoned Glenn Wallace and that she is his real mother, and he wants to know who is real father is. Minx tells him that he is wrong about her being his mother, and that she does know who his real parents are, but she will never tell him, as it would be best that he will never know. Lionel tells Brick that he will prosecute him in court, and Brick says he will fight back.

Kirk sabotages Eden and Cruz's dinner plans by making Eden work with him on the Washington deal, which he claims was very important to CC. He then makes some remarks about Eden and Cruz's relationship, in order to arouse doubts in Eden, but doesn't succeed.

Upstairs in CC's room, Gina orders a blonde wig that will look like Eden's hair. Then she walks over to CC's bed and says that everything is working perfectly according to her plan, and adds:

Episode 315

After a glorious night of betting and winning money, Dylan and Janice come to Nick's apartment where a happy Dylan notifies a worried and upset Nick that he is only 2000$ short in order to fly back to Africa where his partner Sam awaits for him. Nick doesn't like the idea as he thinks the risk is too great, and Dylan's life will be in great danger there. He thinks the whole gold-mine thing is too risky and impossible to carry out. Nick exits his flat leaving Dylan angry and disappointed of his brother who doesn't trust him. Right after Nick leaves, two state-department men knock heavily on the door, knowing that Dylan is inside. Dylan sneaks out of the window, and Janice opens the door pretending to be Kelly, but they don't buy her act, and on noticing the open window, they understand where Dylan has gone, and run after him. An hour later Dylan knocks on the door of Kelly's flat, and demands her to give him the keys to Nick's car before the men will get to her place and stop him. Kelly refuses, and while they are arguing, there's a knock on the door. Dylan quickly hides in the closet, and Kelly opens the door to the state-department people, who show her an old photo of Dylan. "I think I can help you" - says Kelly, and Dylan closes his eyes terrified when he hears her.

Kirk interfers with Cruz and Eden's plans once again, this time by barging into Cruz's apartment in an excuse that Eden's interview to a famous magazine will take place earlier than it was supposed to, and Eden has to get ready. Later when they are working together, Eden tells Kirk about the party she plans for Cruz, and that they are engaged. Kirk congratulates Eden, but the expression on his face is not a happy one at all. When Eden leaves, Kirk reminds her that Cruz is not the only one she can trust.

While Eden works on getting Cruz the promotion with the help of Kirk, Cruz plans a surprise of his own for Eden: He has bought a beautiful house on the beach, where he and Eden will live after they marry. Cruz asks some of his friends for their opinion on the house, including Julia. While they are talking, the name of Kirk Cranstion is brought up, and Cruz says something about Kirk being Jack Lee's son. This comes as a total surprise for Julia, who is sure that Jack uses Kirk to spy around her while he is out of town. Later when Julia and Kirk meet at the Orient Express, Julia spills a wine glass all over Kirk, to demonstrate him what she did to his father after she got insulted by him. Cruz starts to get suspicious over Kirk and turns to a private detective to find out more about him.

Gina finds out that Eden has lied to her about CC's condition, and that his condition actually slides gradually. She confronts Eden about it. She tries to determine whether Eden is going to pull the plug on CC and gets the impression she is willing to do it. Gina plans to let Eden pull the plug, and if she won't, Gina will do it for her. Gina goes to CC's room to tell him how her plan is going well, when suddenly CC's heart beats become faster. Gina can't believe what she sees. She decides to check it, and tells CC some things that upset him, like "there's a rumor going on in town that Lionel and Sophia are having an affair" and "I'm sleeping much better at nights since your stroke. Mason is much better in bed than you ever was". CC's heart beats respond accordingly. "He must be getting better! In that case, there's no time to waste". Gina puts on the blonde wig. "I wish you could see me now CC" - says Gina while holding a photo of Eden in her hand, and in the other one fixing the wig on her head...ý

Episode 316

Kelly turns Dylan over to the state department men, but is surprised to find out the real reason why they looked for Dylan: They heard about his flights to Africa, and they wanted to hire him so that they will use him to transfer sensitive and confidential deliveries to and from Africa. Dylan turns down their offer. After they leave, Dylan blames Kelly for turning him in and for thinking he was a low criminal. Kelly is embarrased and apologizes to Dylan. When Nick comes back to the flat, Dylan lies by telling him Kelly tried to stop the state department people but they finally caught him. Kelly is surprised to discover such a positive side in Dylan. She thinks she made a mistake about his character.

Gina notices that Mary is the nurse on duty on the night of Eden's party, and plans to change her schedule, but Mason does the work for her: He asks Mary to be his date on the night of the party, and when she tells him about her schedule problem, he promises to talk to Gina himself. Gina agrees immidiately. Mason then "borrows" three of Ginger's whores, and makes a mini fashion show at the Capwell mansion for an amused Mary. Mason asks her to pick a dress, and Mary picks the modest one. Mason however, buys her the kinkiest dress without her knowledge. Gina envies Mary, and tries to scare her by telling her that when a man buys such an expensive dress to a woman, that means he wants something in return.

Mason tries to get Ted into changing his vote about the control of Capwell Enterprises and to vote for him instead of Eden. Mason claims that Kirk is actually running the company, and they shouldn't let an outsider take over. The company has to stay under the supervision of the Capwells only, and Mason is the only one who is suitable for the job. Ted is almost convinced, and tells Mason he will think about it.

Nick tries to propose to Kelly, but she stops him before he makes the offer by distructing his mind. Kelly doesn't seem sure whether she really wants to marry Nick.

Dylan gets a phone call from the airport about a special delivery for Nick Hartley. Dylan understands that the delivery is meant for him, and he rushes to the airport, where a coffin is waiting for him. Dylan is shocked to find Sam, his friend and partner at the gold mines, lying motionless in the coffin, but after he is left alone with it, Sam opens his eyes, and they both laugh out loud.

Julia returns to the restaurant where she spilled a glass of wine over Kirk and apologizes to him. They start to have a chat. Julia is curious why Kirk took the job at Capwell Enterprises when he already was an independant business man with his own successful company. Kirk tells her he just saw it as a good opportunity to work there, but Julia guesses that he did it because he has a crush on Eden. Kirk denies it at first, but finally admits that this was the real reason. Julia warns him that he'll be wasting his time since Eden is totally in love with Cruz, but Kirk is convinced he will get Eden. Julia then tells Kirk about the beach house Cruz has bought for Eden, and warns him to stay away of Eden and forget about her, or she will break his heart.

Cruz calls the private detective, who tells him he still hasn't found anything wrong with Kirk's past. Cruz shouts at him to work harder. Nick overhears the phone call and can't understand why Cruz is so interested in Kirk. Cruz admits that he feels threatened by Kirk and Eden's close relationship. Later, Cruz arrives at the Orient Express, where Gina sees him and annoys him by implying that Eden and Kirk might be having an affair. Then Kirk comes by, and they throw hostile words at each other. Cruz warns Kirk not to flirt with Eden and to stop interfering with her personal life, and Kirk replies that he only gives Eden emotional support, something that Cruz should be giving her. "At least now all the cards on the table" says Kirk to Cruz.

Jack Lee calls Kirk to tell him that someone has been digging in his past. Kirk gets furious and goes to Cruz's newly bought beach house. He wanders in the house and doesn't like what he sees when he thinks how Eden will love Cruz's surprise. He takes a hammer and smashes a window, just when Cruz is coming to the house. Cruz takes out his gun and carefully enters the apartment. "Don't move!" - he shouts, scaring the hell out of Kirk.ý

Episode 317

Sam's coffin is carried to Nick's apartment by Dylan's request. Kelly comes out of the shower and finds a coffin in the middle of the living-room. The coffin slowly opens and Sam comes out of it dressed in African clothes. Nick hears Kelly screaming and rushes to the living room, where Sam introduces himself. Dylan comes in, and laughs, but Nick and Kelly don't find his joke very amusing. Dylan asks Sam if he's got the map, and Sam takes it out of his pocket smiling. Nick demands to know what's going on, so Dylan and Sam tell him about the map they drew which leads to the gold mine they've found, and about a mobster named Carlo, who wants to kill them and take the map from them. Dylan and Sam ran away from Africa because Carlo was on to them. Dylan managed to take off to Santa Barbara, while Sam's plane crashed, and Carlo got him, and started torchuring him to get the map. Sam saw that his only way of escaping was telling Carlo that Dylan has the map. Carlo released him, and Sam managed to hide in the coffin playing dead and arrived at Santa Barbara. Kelly likes the story thinking Dylan and Sam's lives are very exciting, but Nick is more practical and starts thinking of ways to avoid Carlo. It is finally decided that Kelly's apartment will be used as Dylan and Sam's hiding place. Nick warns them not to exit the apartment at any time, and to keep Kelly away from the whole thing, and they promise to do so.

Meanwhile, Carlo and his men show up with their yacht at the Santa Barbara marina. Carlo orders his men to bring Dylan and Sam to the yacht by the end of the day. One of his men, who earlier in the episode phones Carlo from the airport to inform him of Sam's arrival to Santa Barbara, waits silently outside Nick's apartment with a gun. Sam and Dylan notice him in time, and manage to grab him and take his gun. They warn him that if Carlo wants to put his hands on the map, he'll have to come in person. Then they leave to Kelly's place, but find out that Kelly has given them the wrong key. Dylan calls Kelly, and she hurries to the flat. While talking to Kelly, Dylan senses that she might be attracted to him.

Back at the beach-house, Cruz is mad at Kirk for breaking his window, and threatens to arrest Kirk and accuse him of burglary, but decides not to when Kirk threatens to spoil Cruz's surprise for Eden. Kirk tells Cruz he did it because he had found that Cruz was digging in his past. Cruz angries Kirk by telling him he thinks Kirk did it because he can't accept the fact that Eden is already taken, and threatens to come after Kirk if he finds out he has a criminal record of any kind. Kirk angrily shouts at him that he has never broken a law in his life, and next time Cruz has a question about him, he should ask him directly. Kirk threatens to destroy Cruz if he ever again tries to pull something against him, and Cruz warns him in return that no man can take Eden away from him.

After seeing how troubled Eden is with CC's condition, Cruz decides to try and help her find CC's will, which is presumably hidden by Gina. He arrives at the Capwell mansion, threatening Gina that he knows where she has hidden the will. Gina is scared for a second, saying that it's impossible, and quickly coming back to her senses, saying that she doesn't know what he's talking about. Cruz is convinced now that she knows where the will is and after failing to reveal its location from the mouth of Gina, he quickly phones Eden. At that time, Eden is talking to Kirk in Cruz's apartment. Kirk convinces her to look at the legal consequences of ending her father's life. Eden asks him if he has news about Cruz's promotion, just when the phone rings and Eden is told that Cruz was promoted. A happy Eden thanks Kirk warmly. Then she goes out of the room for a second, when Kirk answers Cruz. He lies to him by telling him Eden is in the shower. Cruz gets upset, and ask him to tell her to come to her house right away. Kirk promises to deliver the message. "Would you like me to help her dry out?" - Kirk teases. Eden and Kirk arrive at the Capwell mansion, and Cruz fills her in about what happened with Gina, and tells her to go upstairs to Gina's room and search for the will. She rushes to the mansion, and Kirk wants to go in after her, but Cruz stops him, tells him again to stay away from Eden, and shuts the door at his face. Eden starts searching Gina's room, when Gina arrives and they start to fight. Gina pushes Eden out of the room and locks it. Eden goes down to bring the master-key, giving Gina enough time to hide the dress and wig inside Brandon's teddy-bear in the hallway across her room. When Eden goes back up with Cruz, Gina lets her search the room, knowing that she'll find nothing. Later we see Gina phoning an actors' agency disguising her voice, and ordering actors to the mansion, saying that she wants to test them for an acting part.ý

Episode 318

(Thanks to Tzach from Israel for his help)

Brick and Amy decide to marry in Las-Vegas. Julia helps Amy to pick out something for the wedding and Brick calls his mother and tells her the good news.

Dylan, Kelly and Nick are in Kelly's town-house as Sam comes in through the window, saying he was followed by a cable-truck, which is now parked outside, though he managed to lose them off.ý They wonder if the Cable-truck consume one or more of Carlo's men. Dylan begins to wonder how Carlo knows of Sam's whereabouts. He comes to the conclusion that Sam's arrival in the coffin is Carlo's doing. Dylan thinks Carlo probably set the truck with the coffin in it back in Africa, so when Sam uses it to travel to Dylan's hiding place, he will lead Carlo straight to Dylan and the map. The phone rings and Nick answers it, disguising his voice. Brick is on the line confused, and Nický recognizes him, and assures him that he is on the line. Brick calls to tell Nick of his and Amy'sý decision to get married today in Las-Vegas, and wants Nick and Kelly to join them. Nick agrees and says they'll meet at the airport. Sam warns Nick not to go out yet, as the cable-truck is still out there. Nick agrees to stay until the truck leaves.

At Carlo's yacht, Carlo orders one of his men to keep searching for Dylan and the map. His men arrive, telling him they haven't found Dylan yet and Carlo says that if Dylan won't be found, "one of you will be lost at sea..."

Back at Kelly's apartment, Dylan comes up with a plan to produce a fake map leading to the gold, after Kelly's suggestion to call the police on Carlo makes him and Sam laugh, because the police can't stop a guy like Carlo and they need evidence to present as Cruz told them when they came for help from him. The four of them agree on that, and they make the fake map out of a paper shopping bag. After spilling coffee on it and ruffling it, they toss a coin to see who will be used as the bite who gives Carlo the fake map and set him of a wild goose chase, and Sam loses.

They still need the money for the trip back to Africa, when a knock sounds on the door. Kelly approaches the door to open it. They warn her not to, but she says as they once told her "Bad guys don't knock, right?". At the door step is Janice with an idea how to get the money for the trip: She saw an ad in a magazine she took from the Lockridges, showing a 10,000$ prize contest of sexy- pictures. Dylan agrees to let her participate, but insists that she will keep the money if she wins.ý Janice tells him she wants him to have the money, and after a short argument, he agrees. Later on Sam and Dylan walk in on Janice as she takes sexy pictures of herself.

Kelly and Nick decide to take their chances and leave the apartment, since the cable-truck hasn't left, but they don't want to be late for the flight to Vegas, and since the truck is there for a ý while, it's probably a real cable-truck. They leave unharmed.

Augusta and Lionel are getting ready to meet their attorney to discuss prosecuting Brick. Augustaý argues with her husband and accuses him of caring for Brick like he was his father. She says since Brick is about 24 now, his conception was in 1960 and tells him to remind her with what other ladies he has slept with at that time. Lionel denies it, saying he hasn't been unfaithful and is most definitely not Brick's father. Augusta wonders about the time Lionel saw Brick's mother, Mrs. Wallace, in the hospital and, in her mind, only acted as if he has never seen her before. She decides to investigate it, and as an angry Lionel leaves to lunch at "The Orient", she makes a call toý Mrs. Wallace and asks her to meet her at "The Orient Express" to talk about Lionel. Before leaving to the restaurant, Julia enters the mansion and tells Augusta of Brick and Amy's wedding plans. As Augusta hears that, she immediately phones the D.A and informs him of Brick's leaving town and that he has to stop him. Julia tries to stop her, but the call is made. Augusta puts the phone down and finds that Julia has left.ý Augusta arrives at "The Orient" and sees Lionel sitting in the bar, and Mrs. Wallace coming in. She tells a waiter to inform Mrs. Wallace that she will be late. The waiter does so and accompanies Mrs. Wallace to the bar, where Lionel is sitting. As Augusta watches her sitting down next toý Lionel, she says to herself: "Haven't met her before, ah? We'll see about that!".ý

Amy, Brick, Nick and Kelly are at the airport lounge waiting to board their plane, as Julia storms in, pushing them towards the gate and shouts at them to board the plane now, before the police arrivesý to stop Brick. As they are about to board the plane, a voice asks: "Brick Wallace?" and Brick andý the gang turn their heads to see a police-officer coming to stop Brick from leaving

Mrs. Wallace is furious at Augusta, and threatens to sue her. She leaves the restaurant upset, promising Augusta and Lionel she will do everything to protect Brick from them. Augusta and Lionel's argument continues as they return to the Lockridge mansion, and finally Lionel tells Augusta that during the time when Brick was concieved, he was out of town with Sophia. On hearing this, Augusta believes him and apologizes. She gets very upset though, and asks Lionel to take her out and spend the night out of the house. When they are about to leave, a furious Julia bursts in, telling Augusta what happened at the airport. Augusta tells Julia she should stay out of Brick's side in court, or she may lose her as a sister. Julia is having second thoughts about representing Brick, but finally decides to take the case inspite of Augusta.

When Brick hears that Augusta and Lionel will be out of their house for the night, he decides to "play dirty", and breaks into the Lockridge mansion to find a proof that Augusta has framed him. While he is searching through some documents, the light is turned on, and Brick finds himself standing in front of a surprised Lockridge couple, who apparently decided to stay at home. They call the police on him.

Gina pretends testing actors for an Alta Vista car commercial, but the script which she makes the actors read includes words like "Let me die", "I can die peacefully", "I want to die now". She plans to use it in her murder scheme.

Eden, still troubled with thoughts over her father, goes to his room holding the letter in her hand. Kirk finds her devastated, and leads her outside, while getting rid of CC's fake letter, but Gina finds it and keeps it. Kirk takes Eden back to Cruz's place, where she is taking a bath. Kirk waits outside, when suddenly he hears a glass breaking. He goes to the shower door, asking Eden if she's alright. When he doesn't get a reply, he enters, finding Eden crying in the bath tub, after she threw the glass she was holding. He tries to clams her down, but meanwhile Cruz comes in, and is shocked to find Kirk in Eden's shower. "You bastard!" - Cruz and Kirk start hitting each other, until Kirk falls down. "Get him out of here!" - He orders Eden, but instead she is sitting by Kirk, checking his wounds.ý

Halloween is getting near, and Gina decorates the house with pumpkin heads and skeletons. When she sees Brandon hanging a skeleton on the door of CC's room, she takes it off, telling him he can put it anywhere in the house but in this room. While they are talking, Brandon asks her if she is planning on getting a costume for Halloween, and she tells him she will be dressed as a witch (referreing to Eden of course (-: ).

Eden tries to tell Cruz what Kirk was really doing in the shower, but Cruz is too furious at Kirk to listen. He and Kirk throw some hard words at each other. "You won't sabotage this relationship!" - Cruz warns Kirk. "I don't have to, you are doing a good job at it yourself!" - Kirk shouts back, and leaves the flat. Cruz and Eden continue to have a fight about Kirk, in which Cruz claims that Eden is blinded by Kirk's manners and high-class, and can't see that he is a scum.

Gina is scared, thinking it may be another improvement in CC's condition. Gina plants the fake letter from CC back in Eden's purse.

Episode 321

The day of Eden and Cruz's party arrives, and while they are conversing, Cruz asks Eden if Sophia has approved her arrival to the party. When Eden doesn't reply, Cruz understands that she didn't invite her. Eden tells him that she couldn't, since she knows how her father would have felt about it. Cruz thinks Eden is wrong by not inviting Sophia, and goes to the Capwell mansion to invite her himself. He tells her that Eden was so busy that she forgot to give Sophia the invitation. Sophia tells him she knows that Eden doesn't want her to be at the party, and she respects her decision. Eden then comes in, and Sophia tells her that Cruz has just given her the invitation, but she already have plans for the night and will miss the party.

Brick is in prison again, and this time the bail is set to a very high price, which Julia can't afford. When she is ready to go back to Brick to tell him the bad news, she is surprised to hear that Brick's bail has been paid by Minx. Brick is released, but is warned not to leave town. He and Amy find a beautiful spot in Santa Barbara, and decide to have their wedding there. Kelly arranges that their honeymoon will be spent at Cruz's old flat.

Gina phones the Capwell hotel to assure that the presidential suite will be availabe for her, and informs that she will check in early in the afternoon. Mason overhears the conversation, and asks her what it's all about. Gina tells him that she plans to have a nice and quiet evening with Brandon. She meets Eden on the hallway, who warns her not to go near the "Orient Express" tonight, or she will kick her out in front of everyone. Gina tells her not to worry, and informs her of her plans for the night.

One of Carlo's men is following Nick and Kelly. When Nick notices it, he catches the man, which tells him Carlo knows that the map is fake, and if Dylan and Sam won't bring him the real one soon, something bad is going to happen to them. Nick reveals to him that he's got the map and ready to hand it over to Carlo if he agrees to stay away from Dylan and Sam for good.

Mason takes Mary to lunch, and before they leave, Mary hands Gina the emergancy beeper (which is activated when something is wrong with CC), asking her to give it to the nurse on duty. Gina states that Mason and Mary are a stunning couple, which makes Mason wonder why Gina is acting so strange. After they leave, Gina switches the beeper with another one, probably broken, and hands it to the nurse on duty.

Gina is making the final preperations to begin her murder scheme. She stuffs the dress and wig inside Brandon's teddy bear, and changes the desk lamp near CC's room with a broken one. Then she calls Brandon, and tells him that they are ready to leave to the hotel. Brandon wants to take his teddy bear, but Gina takes it from him, saying that he won't need it. She hides the doll under a chair in the lobby. Then she examines the house for the last time, turns out the lights, and before living, she whispers "See you soon...".

It's dark and quiet in the Capwell house. The only sound is coming from CC's room, where the respirator machine is working 24 hours a day, keeping CC alive. CC lies in his bed, his eyes closed. He doesn't know what a terrible night awaits for him...

The following 5 episodes are very important to the development of the plot, therefore I wrote them more detailed than usual.

Episode 322

A stormy evening approaches Santa Barbara.

CC opens his eyes again, and this time it is clear that he is conscious. However, he hides it from the nurse on duty, and pretends to be sleeping when she's in the room.

Cruz shows Eden the beach house, and she is very excited and happy about his present. Eden is worried that her present will not be as good as Cruz's.

Gina arrives to the presidential suite with Brandon. She puts him to sleep, telling him that she is leaving soon to the party downstairs. Brandon asks her if he can come too. "No, it's a party just for grown-ups" - replies Gina. "I'll only be gone for a short while, but first I'm going to set the clock, so just in case you wake up, you'll know what time it is". Gina sends Brandon to wear his pijamas, and sets the clock 2 hours backwards. "Eden thinks this is going to be her night, but really this is going to be mine" - smiles Gina satisfied. She leaves the hotel and sneaks back into the Capwell mansion, where she puts Eden's pink dress on a chair near the entrance.

Dylan and Sam come back to Kelly's flat to get the map - but find that it is gone. They quickly come to the conclusion that the map was taken by one of the only two people who knew about its whereabouts: Nick and Kelly. Meanwhile, while the latter couple are helping Brick and Amy prepare for their marriage, one of Carlo's men approaches the area, and wants to take Nick to Carlo's yacht. Nick doesn't want Kelly to suspect anything, so he tells him they will meet in an alley by the Capwell hotel in 2 hours. 

The party at the "Orient Express" begins, and Kirk talks to the commitioner to make sure that everything is set for Cruz's promotion. Cruz and Eden arrive, and they introduce the singers, who perform a love song which gets all the couples in a romantic mood. An envious Kirk watches Cruz and Eden as they are dancing. Afterwards, Eden converses with Kirk, when suddenly she notices Gina at the entrance. "What is she doing?! She has a lot of nerve showing up here!". Eden confronts Gina asking her to leave at once, but Gina says she'll only be around for a few minutes, and forces her way in to mingle with the crowd. Eden complaints to Cruz that Gina is ruining the party, and Cruz promises her that if Gina won't go in 5 minutes, he will kick her out.

Dylan and Sam arrive to the "Orient Express", demanding Nick to tell them what he's done with the map. Nick refuses to give them the map, and wants them to stay out of it. Dylan and Nick almost get into a fight, but Sam and Kelly seperate them, and Dylan is forced to leave. Kelly wants Nick to tell her what he's up to, but Nick stresses that she should trust him and stay out of it for her sake. Later Nick meets with Carlo's men at the alley as promised, and he enters their car. Kelly watches Nick as he goes into the limo, and is scared for his life. She calls Dylan and Sam, asking them for help. They immediately figure out that Nick is on his way to meet Carlo at the yacht. Nick is indeed brought to the yacht, where he meets Carlo. "I want to make a deal" - says Nick. "It's easy making deals with me. If it's about the map, just name your price" - says Carlo.

At the restaurant, Gina closes herself in a small room away from the crowd, to which she brings two glasses of wine. She pours some white drug powder to one of the glasses. "Better be safe than sorry...". Gina exits the room, and asks for attention. "I have an announcement to make. Eden, I'd like to make a toast to the entire Capwell family" - Gina hands Eden one glass of wine and continues. "Everything that's happened to me, for better or worse, I owe it to them. To CC my husband, who couldn't make it tonight because of his illness, to Ted and Kelly, and of course to dear Mason, and last but not least to Eden, our gracious hostess". A very annoyed Eden drinks the glass to the last drop, and asks Gina firmly to leave. "As I said before, our gracious hostess" - replies Gina, and says she is having fun and doesn't think she'll leave. "I'll take care of this" - says Cruz, and starts to escort Gina out. "Alright, just let me say my goodbyes. Eden, I want to thank you for making me so welcome. Not only tonight, but ever since I came to Santa Barbara. You truely deserve whatever happens to you". At this point, Gina spills a bowl of red sausage all over Eden's dress. The crowd is in shock, and Eden runs to a nearby room, with Cruz and Ted coming after her. She is upset, and tries to calm down. She asks Ted to bring her the replacement dress she has ready for her back home on the chair in the lobby. The drug starts to take its toll on Eden, and she keeps talking about CC, how she misses him tonight, and how he is drifting away from them.

Meanwhile, Gina goes back to the mansion, and waits. "What if it won't work" - she thinks to herself, but her worries fade away as Ted enters, and grabs the pink dress, hurrying back to the party. "No!!!" - Eden screams as she recognizes the dress. Cruz, Kelly and Ted come in and try to calm her down. Eden is totally drugged, and in a very bad mood.

While Eden is wearing her father's favourite dress, someone else is wearing a copy of that same dress, matching it up with a blonde wig...
