Rodney and Norman move into the vacant Hanley apartment over
the Pharmacy.
WA: Constance and Elliot Carson have extended their brief honeymoon
in Boston by one more day. But Allison's less than
enthusiastic reception to this news has cast a shadow over the
evening at least for one of them.
Intro: Boston Skyscrapers.
Scene 1: Elliot and Constance are enjoying their room in the Dorset
House hotel in Boston. Elliot tells Constance that he was the
victim of a scalper. He paid $35 for two tickets to a
Broadway style musical. He tells Constance that they have
6:30 dinner reservations and she needs to get ready.
Scene 2: It is after 6:00 o'clock when Dr. Rossi comes out of the Peyton
Professional Building, walks east by the jewelry store, Peyton
Place Realtors, and goes into the Book Gallery. Allison greets
Dr. Rossi and puts the post cards she is holding in the display
rack. She asks Rossi if he came by to ask how she is. He
does. He leaves.
Scene 3: Overhead camera shot. Allison gets her purse and a grocery
sack from under the counter near the cash register, locks the
Book Gallery, and prepares to drop by the Chandlery. Rodney
drives up and honks. They talk and he offers to drive her
home. She says she can't. She says that her parents have
decided to stay in Boston one more day. She says goodbye and
goes in the Chandlery. [There is a grocery store in Peyton
Place but the viewers never have the privilege of seeing it.]
Scene 4: Rodney is in the Harrington apartment over the Pharmacy and
hears a knock on the door. It is lawyer Theodore Dowell.
Rodney explains that he is cleaning up the mess that Norman was
supposed to clean up. Dowell asks Rodney why Norman bought a
car. Dowell feels that Norman should have saved that money for
college. He tells Rodney that he must look after Norman, now
that Leslie has gone.
Scene 5: Allison comes home with her sack of groceries, fondles the bird
feeder, goes in and glances upstairs. She hears in her mind,
Elliot's voice. Elliot tells her to continue to be a
Mackenzie. She then hears Constance' voice telling her that
Elliot is her father. Now she hears Rodney's voice telling her
to come to the party. She goes upstairs.
Scene 6: Rodney is having a house-warming and painting party for himself
and for Norman. Rodney makes a speech. Norman says that he
and Rodney have the apartment that Paul Hanley didn't want.
Norman uses the phrase, "half of Paul Hanley's cast off
apartment." Allison arrives unexpectedly in pigtails. Allison
goes over to the corner in the kitchen area where Norman is
sulking. Norman leaves and soon the sound of police cars is
heard. Rita is worried about Norman and calls the hospital.
She is told that Kim Schuster is lost. Allison talks with
Norman, the teenagers continue to paint. But Allison doesn't
feel like painting. Rita asks Norman if he likes the curtains
that she had made. Norman tells Rodney that they don't belong
there. Allison fondles the Harrington mailbox.
Transmografication to a Schuster nameplate.
Scene 7: David Schuster returns to the mansion and is handed a drink by
Doris. He sits down, looks around, and compliments her on the
appearance of the house. Doris mentions Anna Chernak who had
worked part-time for the Harringtons. Doris says that she
retained her. Doris tells David that Kim is upstairs asleep.
Kim comes down the stairs. Kim watches Doris' lips and reads
them. David mentions that Amy Warren was Kim's apprentice
teacher. Doris tells David that she had talked with Amy's
mother and the mother would not agree for Amy to come to Peyton
Place to care for Kim. Doris suggests that Kim could be put in
a special school in Boston. Kim then slips out the front door
unnoticed. David goes upstairs to check on Kim. David calls
to Doris to come upstairs. Kim is not in her bed. David
notices that one of her dolls is missing.
Preview: Dr. Rossi talks to Claire. Elliot talks to Constance. Abby
Chapman speaks to the painting party.
MR: Why can't we discuss this simply, as two doctors?
CM: There are areas in my life, I just don't want to discuss.
EC: I think you are making up excuses for things you've
already have decided to do.
CM: Elliot, I do have obligations to Allison.
EC: We have obligations.
AC: There must have been an accident.
Dorset House, Boston's finest.
