Rodney and Betty make wedding plans.
WA: Tonight, a chain reaction of events has exploded. An incident
in a warehouse on the wharf touched it off, and left Eddie
Jacks beaten and badly hurt. Now Elliot Carson has just
learned that Dr. Rossi knew all about the true parentage of the
baby Jill Smith brought to town months ago. Knew and failed to
come forward and tell the truth.
Intro: Car driving on the square. Elliot gets out and goes in the
hospital.
Scene 1: Miss Choate tells Rossi that Elliot is waiting for him in his
office. Elliot asks Rossi why he didn't come forward and tell
them the truth about the baby. Rossi says he did what he did
to help his brother. Elliot doesn't buy it. Elliot says that
Dr. Rossi played God.
Scene 2: In response to Constance' invitation, Jill Smith goes to visit
Constance and to see her baby, Kelly. Constance unloads on
Jill. Constance accused Jill of lying. Constance is furious.
Jill wanted Kelly to have a good home. Jill says, "I want to
see my baby." Constance says, "She's not your baby. You
disowned her the day she was born."
Scene 3: Norman comes home to find Rita tidying up. She says tomorrow,
she is going to the Laundromat. She gathers up the dirty
clothes and put them in the ditty bag. Norman retrieves dirty
clothes from drawers, from under the furniture, and from behind
pillows. [60's humor].
Scene 4: Eddie Jacks drives up to the apartment in his jalopy. Ada is
with him. His forehead has a bandage. He gets out and goes
around to the passenger side and talks to Ada. She stays in
the car while he climbs the steps. He starts to knock and he
sees Ada watching. He comes back down the steps, she thanks
him, and they drive off. The apartment light goes out.
Scene 5: Steven is eating dinner as Mary comes and interrupts him to say
that Mrs. Winter would like to see him. She comes in and they
talk. She says that the tickets to the benefit luncheon have
all been sold. Steven asks her why she came to see him. She
says that she knows he is lonely. She says, "You know we
really have a great deal in common, Steven." Susan says that
Betty and Rodney are coming to her house tonight to discuss
their wedding.
Scene 6: At the Winter house, Betty and Rodney arrive to talk to
Reverend Winter about their wedding. Tom says that Susan should
be there but she isn't because she is working on the benefit
luncheon for the children's wing of the hospital and the Founders
Day Festival. Tom says he would be delighted. Susan returns.
Tom hugs Susan. Betty tells Susan that Tom has already agreed
to marry them. Tom tells Susan that she deliberately created
an awkward situation. Tom says, "You are not going to use
Steven Cord to make me jealous." Susan says, "If it doesn't
\\]work I can have a lot of fun trying."
Preview: Elliot calls to Constance. Dr. Rossi talks to Joe. Ada speaks

the door ...
CM: I can't give the baby up, Elliot.
JR: I don't owe you anything.
MR: Yes, you do. I just want to know the truth.
JR: The truth. You wouldn't know the truth if it hit you in
the mouth.
AJ: I never cared for that fast talking, slow working, no good
bum.
