Betty moves out of the barn-house.
WA: Late last night Dr. Michael Rossi phoned Betty Harrington and
informed her that her husband had broken his paralysis, and was
moving his arms and legs once again. Betty rushed to see
Rodney, to give him her love. Then she returned home to pack a
suitcase so that Rodney will get the separation he wants.
This morning, Betty deliberately avoids a visit to her
husband's hospital room, knowing that Rodney is experiencing
the pleasure of moving normally once again.
Intro: Betty walking in the corridor at the hospital.
Scene 1: In Rodney Harrington's hospital room, Dr. Dave Wilkinson, the
psychiatrist, Chuck Atwell, the therapist, Dr. Rossi, chief-of-
staff at Doctors Hospital, and Rodney himself are discussing
Rodney's progress. Rodney says that he feels like the guy who
robbed a bank and got a second chance. The psychiatrist says
a few words of encouragement to Rodney and departs. Dr. Miles
joins them to congratulate Rodney. Rossi goes out in the
corridor and sees Betty Harrington.
Scene 2: Betty asks Rossi if she can talk with him. They go in Rossi's
office and Betty tells him that she has moved out of the house.
She says that she has done what Rossi suggested and what Rodney
has asked. She has made it possible for Rodney to work this
out on his own.

expectant mother. She mentions that Cliff was born a year

City to try to find out what's going on concerning his son, Lewis.
Scene 5: At the Colonial Post Inn, Steven Cord joins Susan Winter, who
is sitting by two other patrons at the bar. Steven asks why
she has two drinks before lunch and two drinks after lunch. He
tells Susan about the Peyton will. Presently, Betty comes in
and Steven allows Susan to depart. Steven now talks with Betty
about Martin Peyton's will. He says they have a case if Betty
decides to fight it. Steven asks the desk clerk if he has a
reservation. Steven says that he had called ahead for one.
Scene 6: In the storeroom of the Harrington Brothers Motorcycle shop,
Lewis Miles talks with Joanna Walker. He is watching the shop
for Norman until he gets back. Lewis also works at the Cider
Barrel. Carolyn joins them. Joanna asked why Dr. Miles came
over to see her father. Joanna leaves. Lewis talks to Carolyn
for a while and then consider going to the lab. He decides,
however, to go talk with his father.

to New York. The doctor leaves. Lewis goes upstairs to talk
with Vickie Fletcher.
Preview: Susan talks to Betty about Steven. Lew asks Joanna what his father
said to her father. Carolyn talks to her father, Fred Russell.
SW: If Steven can help you get back that beautiful inheritance,
why fight it.

It's important.
