---------------------------------------------------------------------- Monday, October 29 Pete and Melissa are at the police station. Abe tells Pete he called Chris, and Melissa he called Linda. Chris shows up and asks Abe what is going to happen to Pete. Abe tells him Pete will be going before the night court judge, who happens to be fairly easy going. Pete and Chris go to night court. Pete tells Melissa he will call her. Linda shows up and asks Melissa who her boy friend is that almost killed her. Melissa refuses to tell her and Linda takes her home. Gwen calls the Salem Chronicle and asks them to send over the best investigative reporter they've got. The reporter arrives at Gwen's house and Gwen tells her that Viktor Chervot is Larry Welch's real father. Gwen demands to be kept anonymous. The reporter agrees. Carlo tells Liz he wants things to go back the way they were before. He wants them to be friends like they were before he told Liz he loved her. Carlo tells Liz he realizes she loves Neil and he can never have her, so he tells her since he can't have her, he will have to settle being her friend. Liz doesn't think they can go back to being friends, but she tells Carlo she does need the love and support of a friend right now and Carlo takes her hand. Liz agrees to give it a try and they start talking again like old friends. Carlo tells Liz he arranged a national television interview for her with one of the best reporters around. Liz is excited and nervous and happy, all at once. Carlo tells Liz he has never seen this side of her, he always thought she was in complete control at all times. Liz tells him it is one of her better kept secrets. Roman calls Abe and tells him to meet him at his house as soon as he can. He tells him it is urgent. Roman is holding the picture of the Phoenix in his hand as he speaks with Abe. Abe arrives at Roman's house and Roman shows him the picture of the Phoenix. Roman tells Abe to get police protection all around the house so they can keep an eye on Marlena and the twins at all times. Pete gets off easy with the judge and Chris brings him home to Shenanigan's. Pete tells Chris he is going to see Melissa. Chris sees Gwen at Shenanigan's and he tells her she looks like she needs a friend to talk to. Gwen tells Chris that she just ruined Larry Welch's career. She tells Chris that she loves Larry and she was his mistress, but that was not enough for her. She knew as long as he was in politics, they would never have a future together. Linda is at Melissa's house when Pete arrives. She gets a look of recognition on her face. Melissa introduces them. Pete does not know it is really Madame duPre because he has never really seen the Madame's face, since she hides behind a hat and veil. Linda leaves and Melissa asks Pete to leave also. The story about Larry Welch's real father hits the morning papers and the morning news on television. Gwen feels regret for doing what she did to Larry. Salem is shocked at the news. Pete goes back to Melissa's house and asks her to forgive him for what he did. Pete tells her he got the plates for the car from an old truck in a junkyard. Melissa asks Pete why he lied to her and he tells her he just wanted them to get away together and he didn't want anything to delay their trip and he didn't want to wait at the Moter Vehicle Department. Melissa tells him they don't have anything if they don't have a trusting relationship and she tells him she can't stand his hiding things from her and lying to her anymore. She tells him to leave her alone and Pete tells Melissa he isn't going to give up on her. Tony tells Anna he wants to take his mother Daphne DiMera to Haiti with them. Anna is not thrilled. Daphne and Anna do not get along well together, at all. Roman gets another package special delivery, this time postmarked from St. Croix. Roman opens the package and it is the timekeeper that Stephano used to practice orchestrating to. Roman says, "It is him, it is Stephano." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Marie Carey ...seismo!carey
