38 minutes and B&S day

It's still the same day.

Joy and Alex talk outside the pub. Alex is driving her to work. Joy tells Alex she got a text from Abe to talk to him. She's worried about it.

Outside shot of hospital from last week. Bonnie comes into the room where Johnny is working. She wants to cut a line because of a word. Johnny starts to tell her the meaning and says she can change it. He's upset since he lost the love of his life.

Chanel enters Paulina/Abe's apartment. Paulina asks about her day. Chanel said she spent the day redoing the menu since people wanted some items back. She's staying busy since she quit B&S. Paulina wants to talk to about not quitting.

Abe's at hospital set. He calls Kate to let her know Lady W is Javi.

Replay of Javi and Kerry in bed (no shirts) when Leo rushes in. Javi's upset. Kerry's going to call police since Leo trespassed. Leo say fine and put it on speaker. Leo says he knows Javi's not Lady W, but he thinks Kerry is.

Kate's on phone with Abe at the B&S office. Kate wants to be kept updated and hangs up phone. The door opens. It's Hattie wearing a big hat. She's dressed that way so no one knows she's coming back. Kate says they have things to talk over before Charlemagne comes back. She and Abe don't want her to be a diva.

Johnny and Bonnie discuss his hookup with Joy. Bonnie mentions Seth is a gossip queen. She asks if he used protection with Joy? He says they didn't do that. Bonnie is shocked and wonders why Chanel is upset? Johnny says he lost her trust and lied over and over. Bonnie hopes there are no catfights on the set. Johnny tells her that Chanel quit.

Chanel reminds Paulina she can't work with Johnny and Joy. Paulina says Abe will have to do plan A. Chanel asks what that is?

Joy and Alex walk onto the hospital set. Abe's texting. Joy thinks she's going to be fired. Abe says he needs to talk to both of them about hooking up.

Kerry wants Leo to leave. Leo won't go and keeps talking. He say Kerry can't spell since a word was misspelled (doesn't he know about spell checking?). Javi wants to know if he knows Kerry is Lady W? Leo says he know he is.

Hattie removes the hat and sunglasses. She says she and Bonnie are friends now and there won't be problems. Kate tells Hattie no whining about lines, clothes, etc. Kate hands her a contact to sign. Hattie's not happy since it's only 13 weeks and she's only being paid scale. Kate reminds her Bonnie has the same deal. Take it or leave it.

Bonnie's upset Chanel quit since Faith and Arrow are the popular couple on the show. Bonnie wants to know how Faith leaves the show? Johnny doesn't tell her.

Chanel's upset they're killing off Faith. She feels sorry for Faith. Paulina says she can do something for closure. She can do the exit scene. This will be good for Kate and Abe since they're letting her out of contract. Chanel says she'll do it.

Joy asks if there is problem with them hooking up? Abe says it could be hot and the fans will like. He finally says it's about Regan and Arrow. Since Chanel quit, they're going to be a couple. Joy's happy she's not fired. Alex mentions they have chemistry in real life and it'll show up on screen. Abe puts two and two together and asks if they're hooking up for real?

More blah, blah, blah in Javi's bedroom. Leo finally mentions Lady W and Rochester, NY. Javi looks at Kerry and says he's from there. Leo mentions the sweatshirt and that's a confession. He mentions Marlena said he needed proof. Leo mentions lunch and his story pitch. It was a lie and it turned up in Lady W's column.

Alex and Joy discuss hooking up. Abe doesn't see it as problem like it was with Stephanie. He wants the status of their relationship. Both of them roll their eyes. Abe says to keep him and Kate in loop when they figure things out.

Bonnie's in hospital room when Kate and Hattie come in. Hattie signed the contact. Bonnie's excited. Kate gives them a script to read.

After Abe walks away, Joy and Alex discuss things. Alex says Stephanie's with Philip. Since she's moving on, he should too. They both like spending time together. They should tell Abe it's complicated. Both look away to see Johnny and Chanel on set. Johnny and Chanel look at Alex and Joy.

Kerry lies to Javi that he's not Lady W. Kerry says someone could have eavesdropped. Leo says he got a voicemail from Rafe saying he has video of Kerry taking his long stories from his computer. Kerry says he erased the video (bingo). Leo lied about the video.

Abe's at home talking to Paulina about Chanel. Paulina couldn't stop her quitting, but she's filming the last scene.

Chanel tells Joy she's here to tape Faith's last scene. She says she's doing it for Abe and wants to know how Faith dies? Johnny says she's dying like Charlemagne did.

In the hospital room, Kate, Bonnie and Hattie do a scene. Kate has to explain to Hattie they're doing a flashback scene where Bonnie talks to her in a morgue. After Bonnie's long speech, Hattie pulls off the sheet and says over my dead body. It's not in the script.

Kerry says he put spyware on Leo's computer after he broke in the first time. He saw everything on Leo's laptop. Javi jumps out of bed and accuses Kerry of bad-mouthing Leo. Kerry says Leo made a fool of him. He loved his column and Leo lured him to his room. Leo says it was his idea. Kerry was humiliated by Leo. He calls Leo a hack for his script writing. Kerry says "he used to be a big fan of B&S until you came in and ruined it with your lousy writing" (sounds familiar). Javi tells Kerry to get dressed and leave.

Javi tells Kerry to go, again. Kerry gets out of bed and says he wants to break up with him because what he wrote. Javi says you broke into his hotel room, stole from him and put spyware on his computer. Kerry denies poisoning cupcakes when Leo brings it up. Javi says he doesn't trust Kerry and wishes he never met him. Kerry finally gets his things and leaves.

Abe tells Paulina that Leo says Javi is Lady W based on the sweatshirt. Paulina says that sounds flimsy. Abe gets a call from Leo. Leo says Lady W is Kerry. Abe says who?

Chanel looks at elevator open door. She can't believe she's dying like Charlemagne. Chanel thinks fans will be upset. Johnny wants to talk to her later. Chanel says no.

Kate has to explain to Hattie that she can't come back to life that way. Hattie doesn't like Bonnie having lines. Kate tells Hattie in her contract if she doesn't follow script she'll be fired. Hattie says she'll do it your way. She lays back down and pulls up the sheet.

Back on the set, Johnny says action. In character, Alex and Joy look at sonogram pictures of a baby. Chanel walks up. She wonder if maybe Joy was with another man and it's not his baby. Joy and Chanel get upset with each other. Chanel really slaps Joy. Chanel apologizes. She was in character.

Outside the pub, Johnny asks Joy if she's ok? Joy is glad Chanel slapped her. She no longer feels guilty about what she did. She and Chanel are even now.

Chanel returns to Paulina's apartment. Abe asks how it went? Chanel says she's glad it's over. She wants to put it all behind her. Paulina takes her into the kitchen to make hot chocolate. Abe stops Chanel and thanks her for doing the scene. He calls Kate and tells her he has news about Lady W.

Javi and Leo are still in Javi's bedroom. Leo is buying a new computer with better security. Javi says he didn't know what Kerry was really like. Hei admits to Leo that he and Kerry never slept together since he wanted to go slow. Kerry wondered if I still had feelings for you. Javi says Kerry said I still have feelings for you. Javi said no, but Kerry knew I was lying. He kisses Leo.

Kate tells Hattie that Leo found the real Lady W. Kate hopes Chad will fire Kerry if he did anything illegal. Kate thinks Kerry poisoned the cupcakes. Hattie lifts the curse she put on the show. Kate hopes it will be smooth sailing from now on.

Bonnie's on the phone with Justin. She tells him about working with Hattie. She'll be home soon. She got a text from wardrobe to do a fitting, and hangs up. Bonnie pushes the elevator button while looking at her phone. She steps into the elevator shaft as Alex comes around the corner. Bonnie screams and you hear a splat.
 
Bonnie didn't know what the word mendacious means. It's easy to find out. She could have googled the word. The word means lying or not telling the truth.

Interesting on B&S, it's brought up that maybe Arrow isn't the father of Regan's baby. Could this be foreshadowing with Tate and Sophia?

I left out a lot Leo's dialogue, again.
 
Thank you, Kat.

Glad Kerry was exposed. Will he return to Rochester, never to be heard from again? I hope so.

It did not sound like the mat was still at the bottom of the elevator shaft. A fall like that would cause death or a lot of broken bones. But I am sure that for the sake of "duh plot," Bonnie will end up with amnesia or be in a coma. Haven't had a coma story in a while, after all.:rolleyes:

Hattie needs to stop with her demands and behave. It took a lot to get her back on the show. She needs to earn her return.

At least Alex and Joy don't have to hide their blooming romance, but I don't think it will bloom for long. If Alex and Stephanie find their way back to each other, they will have to keep it under wraps. Lesson not learned.

I always remember "mendacity" uttered several times in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof:

Thanks kat. I'm happy Hairy Kerry has been found out and that he put a keystroke capturing program on the computer. But the other stuff, just how??? Actually I'm not sure I care.

Love the follow up on missing Rachel. That's not an important story. Pacing on this show is terrible.
 
Kudos to Leo for outing hairy Kerry as Lady W. He would be a worthy associate for Nancy Drew. Hopefully, the useless Rochester hairball will head straight to the local bus station and return to the snowy city by Lake Ontario. And the always-annoying Javi finally made a right move by giving his fuzzy boyfriend his walking papers.

Leo’s 1-2-3-4-5 password reminded me of a law professor I once worked with, a computer illiterate, he used that password too. Unlike poor Leo, it never caused him any problems.

As for the always-nonsensical B&S b/s who could possibly care about Joyless hooking up with Alex, the brief return of the cranky cookie baker or the grand return of foolish Hattie? Sorry Abe, but your soap is a hopeless mess.

Javi tells Leo that he didn’t hook up with Kerry. Wasn’t the first scene of the show Kerry saying that was worth the wait?

The elevator scene with Bonnie makes now sense. If they were using it for the show I’m sure the buttons wouldn’t work to call for it. And even if the door did open I can’t imagine the fall would be more than a floor with the mats there. But if it gives her a bump on the head and she comes to thinking she’s Adrienne I’m on board!
