To prove to Dorian that Paul is a con artist, David talks him into taking a lie detector test "for the fun of it." When Paul passes the test with no problem, David wonders how he did it.

Wednesday, December 17, 2003

Marcie broadcasts her new talk show, live, with her guests Rae and two students, Greg and Kim. The show is called "Bridge the Gap" and the topic is date rape. Greg and Kim become embroiled in a debate when Kim seems unable to believe that girls don't "ask for it" by their actions or dress.

Roxy arrives at Rodi's with an armful of Christmas gifts that she found in the garage. It turns out that they are from Cristian who did his shopping early and hid the packages. While Nat is apprehensive about opening her gift, Roxy can't wait to open her own, which turns out to be a tee-shirt inscribed, "I Beat the One-Armed Bandit." Michael/Al spots Gabrielle and re-introduces himself. He mentions that Al spoke highly of both of his parents, which pleases Gabby a great deal. She excuses herself hastily though, saying that she has an appointment. He hears Marcie on the radio and panics after Nat suggests that maybe she will get together with a cute sounding Greg.

Carlotta returns home from a wasted trip to Puerto Rico, she tells Dorian. Adriana has run away and no one knows where she is. River eavesdrops nearby and is caught by Paul who suggests he not get caught. Dorian reassures Carlotta that Adriana will be found plus she will try to get information from River. When the women approach the door, River is spotted and stopped. He reminds them that he's not the lying kidnapper and has no clue as to his girlfriend's whereabouts. Paul receives a call from Babe, urging him to meet her at a bar called Bend an Elbow. When David stops by, he agrees to follow the suspicious acting man for any clues on his activities, after observing him leaving the house rather quickly.

Antonio and Evangeline discuss the newest murder victim who was a star witness for them in an upcoming case. It's unknown whether it's a copycat or a rushed job by the same person, but Antonio is finding it difficult to deal with since he's no longer on the police force. He's put a lot of thought into the case and has a revelation though he thinks it could be a stretch. Going down the list of victims, he points out the possible links to Nora. One woman was Jewish, one studied law and the last was being prosecuted by Nora. Some of the victims don't have apparent links yet but Jen was probably an attempt also and she and Nora are close. They surmise that the killer could be someone close to Nora. When an obviously jealous R.J. comes by, he tries to pick a fight with Antonio since the two people look so intense, their heads close together. Antonio doesn't fall for the ruse and instead decides to run his idea past John. Evangeline and R.J. chat and she is suddenly grasping for something that reminds her of the music box case. She can't quite put her finger on it yet.

John, Nora and Bo discuss the case and the many details that are different from previous cases. John shows them a bag that was found near Jen's assault, which looks familiar to Nora. It dawns on her that it strongly resembles a bag that Troy had which provokes John's curiosity. It can't be his though, she insists, as he's locked up in a maximum-security cell in Statesville. John wonders if Troy could have gotten out but Nora says no way. He is uneasy and insists on checking it out. Later, he discloses that Troy is locked in his cell, his belongings in storage. Nora insists that the bag can't be Troy's.

Troy prowls the bar, sitting next to a pretty young woman. He offers to buy her a drink but Babe turns him down. Soon after, Gabby walks in and asks if he has another day pass. He offers to buy her a drink as Paul shows up to meet with Babe, closely followed by an unseen David. Paul and Babe sit at a table where she reminds him to be on the lookout for Adam Chandler, showing him a picture. He will keep his mouth shut, he agrees. Once he goes, David attempts to make a play for Babe but she rebuffs him, only giving him her first name and the fact that she lives in Pine Valley. Back at the bar, Gabby reveals that she hasn't told anyone that she's seen Troy but if he's out legally as he insists, he shouldn't be worried about it. He asks her to dance and becomes insistent when she turns him down. He reminisces over Nora and her breaking his heart. He happens to have a type of broken heart tattoo on his neck.

Michael/Al heads for the radio station where he hides and hears Greg ask Marcie out for coffee once the broadcast is over. He follows them to Rodi's where he begs for Luna to do something. She refuses, urging him to continue his patience and reminding him that he doesn't look like Al on the outside. He wants Marcie to know it's him but Luna thinks that Marcie will think him crazy or mean. He'll get yanked back for good, she warns him. He decides that he will take a chance. Antonio enters looking for John and awkwardly takes his gift from Roxy. When Carlotta shows up, she eagerly receives hers and opens it to reveal an antique that she once told Cristian she wanted. Antonio finds a CD that Cris burned for him of all of his favorite songs. He receives a frantic call from Evangeline telling him that she was able to place a link to yet another victim; this one was married to an African-American like Nora. Nat puts her gift away under the bar.

Dorian attempts to place a call to Puerto Rico without success. She suggests that River play the new piano that she has but he sarcastically tells her that he can't be bought off, that his old keyboard is just fine. David fills Dorian in on the scene at the bar, mentioning that the couple left separately. Paul returns and they try to pry but without success.

Rae stops by the police station at Bo's request. He confides in her that Gabby is not doing well though Rae believes her actions to be natural. Gabby goes out and is gone all night, he insists. The cop in him wants her tailed. Antonio fills everyone in on his suspicions. Nora is doubtful while the men look thoughtful.

Blair evades when Kevin wants her to divorce Walker and be with him. Walker unnerves Blair with his calm demeanor. Michael/Al is determined to tell Marcie the truth and Michael's soul regains control of his body after he does so. Al is called to a higher plane but Luna arranges for Al to meet with an angel, who will give Al another chance in Michael's body if he can make Michael commit three good deeds in three days. Bo receives a written, coded message from the Music Box Killer. Riley helps Bo and John break the code. Bo and John realize the decoded message is the address of Troy's former loft.

To avoid Opal's advances, David kisses Dorian, who whispers that they are about to lose the inheritance.

John and Bo go through the evidence from the Music Box killings. When Flash calls, Bo insists that she let the police protect her.
