Port Charles Update Friday 7/20/01 By Dawn Gabby is trying to stall Jamal at the door to ER. She asks him to check her ankle for bruises. Wanting no part of her, Jamal tells her there’s nothing there, and tries to get past her. As he walks away, Gabby follows him. He’s in a room on the phone trying to get a hold of Lucy. Entering behind him, Gabby shuts the door and approaches Jamal. Seeing Michael holding Eve leaves Ian telling them to
not let him interrupt, but Eve runs to him and hugs him. She’s glad he’s there.
Eve and Michael admit to Ian that Caleb came there to see her. Eve tells Ian
that Caleb didn’t hurt her, but hurt Michael. And he wouldn’t leave the
apartment. Ian holds her for a moment, but she decides she needs to throw water
on her face. Alone, Michael knows what Ian’s thinking. Ian is angry, and Michael
has no idea what Ian’s thinking. Kevin’s glad to see Livvie, but Livvie insists that
she’s only there because of Jack. That she would still be locked up at the
hospital if it hadn’t been for Jack. Defending himself, Kevin tries to tell her
that all he wanted was for her to be safe. But Livvie is tired of him
controlling her. Jack and Lucy watch as Livvie and Kevin argue about whether it
was a control or safety. Livvie finally tells Kevin that Jack is the one that
explained to her about him being worried about her. She’s only there because
Jack thinks she’s safe there. Jack wants to talk to her alone, but he doesn’t
want to leave her alone. Finally stepping in, Lucy talks him into leaving them
alone. After Kevin and Lucy leave the room, Jack tells Livvie that there are
things she needs to know about Caleb and him. Livvie begs Jack to tell her what’s going on. Holding
her, he tells her that he wants to stay, but he has to go after Caleb. Livvie
doesn’t want to hear that Caleb is some sort of serial killer. Jack tries to
find the words to tell her that Caleb is worse and he’s the only one that can
protect her from him or anyone like him. Livvie isn’t safe without Jack, when
she’s alone things start to happen. Taking her face in his hands, he begs her to
believe that he loves her. She does believe him, but she still doesn’t
understand. Jack asks her to promise that she won’t leave the lighthouse, and
she’ll stay inside. Livvie won’t promise anything until Jack tells her why.
Caleb can’t come inside the lighthouse because it’s one of the rules. Livvie is
more confused, and she demands to know what the rules are all about. Jack
finally states that Caleb is a vampire. Frank approaches Emilio at the hospital and asks how
things went with Gabby. Emilio is furious. Gabby has blown him off for the last
time, and he’s sick of it. He tells Frank that he’s going to do whatever it
takes to make her go to the family. Jamal sees Gabby and jumps. He’s getting weird vibe from
her, and it’s making him nervous. She’s a nice girl, but he’s with Alison, and
if that’s not what’s going on, he wants to know what is. Smiling, she apologizes
to him for making him uncomfortable. The phone rings and Jamal talks to Lucy.
He’s relieved that Livvie and Jack are okay, and he’s going to make them pay for
making him crazy. Thanking Lucy for calling, he hangs up and tries to get away
from Gabby again. But she stops him again, telling him he’s a really great guy,
and she’s trying to figure out what makes him so different. Having no idea what
she’s really talking about, Jamal tells her that he’s not different, he’s just a
normal guy. She said thank you, he said you’re welcome, and he’s out of there.
After he leaves, Emilio enters and tries to take Gabby home. As he tries to pull
her, she shoves him across the room. She tells him to not touch her again, he
has no idea who he’s dealing with. Ian admits to Michael that he had him checked out.
Michael confirms that he went to the monastery on his own for a place to hide
Caleb. He apologizes to Ian, for better or worse, he’s always protected Caleb
from the world, and he’s protected the world from Caleb. Michael tries to tell
Ian that he never intended for Eve to in danger and he’d give his life to
protect her. Ian is angry, and insists that it’s not Michael’s place to protect
her, it’s his. Ian appreciates all the things Michael has done, and he’s a man
of the cloth, and it’s not his fault, but he brought his troubles to Ian’s door,
and he can’t have that. He tells Michael that he wants him out of their lives,
starting right now. Eve returns and offers tea. But Michael tells her that
he’s leaving. He tries to cover for Ian, but Ian stops him and admits to Eve
that he asks him to leave. As Eve begins to argue, Michael stops her and
apologizes for bringing Caleb into their lives. As he walks out the door, Eve
follows him. She doesn’t want him to go, but he convinces her that it’s best for
her if he leaves. They both wish things were different, but they aren’t. He asks
her to promise that she’ll wear the family crest always. Before he can get away
from Eve, she kisses him on the cheek and thanks him. Gabby tells Emilio to leave her alone and throws him
across the room again. Emilio is convinced she’s crazy, but she wants him to
listen. He gives up, and he tells her to run off to her mystery boyfriend,
calling her a whore. Stopping, Gabby turns and faces him, asking him what he
said. The girl from the bar was right about Gabby, and he tries to walk out,
still calling her names. Furious, Gabby grabs him and pulls him down in front of
her to bite his neck. Kevin is pacing behind Lucy as she works on a laptop. He
decides he’s going upstairs, but Lucy stops him. Kevin doesn’t trust Jack, and
it infuriates him that Jack is trying to convince Livvie to not be mad at him
for looking out for her. Lucy knows what that means to him, but she’s
preoccupied by what’s on the website. As he starts to rant again, she tells him
that there are two kinds of vampires. Good and bad, the only difference being
how they use their powers. Kevin can’t believe what she’s saying. There is no
such thing as vampires. Lucy asks him if he’s absolutely sure. The crazy part
for Kevin is that he’s not sure of anything anymore, except that he’s worried
about Livvie. Lucy wonders how Jack knows Caleb is a vampire. And how did Jack
pull the door open, and throw Kevin. Aggravated with her, Kevin tells her to
just spit it out. Lucy asks him if they have a bigger problem that just
Caleb. Livvie doesn’t believe Jack. There is no such thing as
vampires. Jack tries to convince her that it’s real; he’s seen it himself. The
whole thing, the fangs, the strength, the blood drinking, it exists, and she has
to listen to him. Livvie doesn’t want to
hear that Caleb drinks blood, but Jack tries to talk to her. Livvie is disgusted
by the thought of drinking human blood is sick, and she doesn’t want to hear
anymore. Jack tells her that he has to kill Caleb so she’ll be safe, but Livvie
is furious with him. He’s crazy, and she wants him to go. He tries again, but
she tells him to get out. Jamal is on the phone with Alison, telling her to not
let anyone in except him, and to tell Victor he’ll be there soon. Telling her he
loves her, he hangs up as Frank asks if he’s seen Emilio. As Gabby is feeding on
Emilio, she hears them talking about him being in there. Wiping her mouth, she
calls for help. Jamal and Frank enter and they panic at the sight of Emilio on
the ground unconscious. Gabby asks them to help her, and tells them that she
found Emilio. Eve understands Ian wants to protect her, but he can’t
blame Michael. Ian doesn’t blame anyone, but he wants both brothers to stay away
from her. As much as Eve likes Michael, she can’t argue with him. She wishes
there was another way. Ian explains to Eve that a family crest is given to the
woman a man wants to marry. Eve insists that he gave it to her to keep her safe.
Not caring, Ian pulls the crest from her neck and throws it in the trash,
promising her that he’ll keep her safe. Kevin asks Lucy if she thinks Jack is some sort of…. He
can’t say it, and Lucy tells him to just say it. He’s still angry, and he wants
to know if everyone is going crazy around him. Lucy thinks the problem is that
something is staring them in the face and they’re not seeing it. Jack wants to
protect Livvie from Caleb, but he’s afraid to be alone with her. Jack’s in the
woods, he’s hit by a bullet, but nothing happens to him, because what really
happened to Jack was Caleb. Speaking faster as it comes together in her mind,
Lucy wonders if Jack knows so much about vampires because he is one. As Kevin
thinks about what she’s saying, it begins to make sense. Before he can say
anything, they hear a door slam. Yelling Livvie’s name, they run up the stairs
together. Livvie is at the top of the lighthouse alone, and Jack
sees her from the ground. Before Jack can scream at her, he grabs his neck and
falls. Chris comes out of the trees smiling. Livvie turns to find Caleb standing behind her. He says
good evening and remarks that it’s a nice night. Chris approaches
him as he holds his neck and asks Chris what he did to him. Chris admits that he
shot Jack with enough tranquilizer to drop an elephant. When Chris gets close
enough, Jack grabs him by the throat. Choking, Chris can’t believe this is
happening. Before Chris can pass out, Jack does. Pulling away from Jack, Chris
wonders what happened to him. Kevin and Lucy enter Livvie’s room to find it empty.
Turning to Lucy, Kevin tells her that Livvie’s gone. Scenes: Jack is in a small cage in a small lab with Chris. Chris
tells him that it’s wired with 240 volts to keep him from going anywhere. Livvie is in a living room with Caleb and Caleb welcomes her to their new home. |
