Fantastic S2 Episode 03

In Rebecca's apartment, Bethany has just let Andy in. "Hey...I wasn't expecting to see you." Rebecca says. "Sorry for not calling in advance, its...just been pretty hectic, it didn't occur to me." Andy says. "Its fine. So, what brings you by?" Rebecca asks. "Daisy is out on bail." Andy reveals. "What?! After everything that crazy bitch did?! There were a bunch of people that saw her confess!" Bethany points out. "I know that, but her release isn't exactly no strings attached. She has to wear an ankle monitor that keeps her from leaving town, and if she does leave town, we'll pick her up, her bail will be revoked, and she gets to sit in the nearest correctional facility while she awaits trial." Andy says. "Can't we just kidnap her, throw her over the city line, say she tried to run, and then arrest her?" Bethany asks. "I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that. Can I talk to Rebecca, please?" Andy asks. "You're kicking me out?" Bethany asks. "Its fine. Just go wait in the other room." Rebecca says. Bethany sighs. "Alright, fine. Yell to me whenever you are done." Bethany says, before walking into the other room.
"So, are you okay? I know Daisy being out is a little unsettling." Andy notes. "Its temporary. Daisy is still going to trial, and when she does, she'll be sent to jail." Rebecca says. "Still. You are the one that exposed what she did, she might come looking for revenge." Andy says. "Daisy isn't any match for me. The only reason she was able to gaslight me was because I never saw her as a threat. But, I'm ready for her, now." Rebecca says. Andy sighs. "I'm so sorry, this is all my fault. I'm the one that brought Daisy into our lives." Andy says. "You had no idea how damaged Daisy was. If anyone is to blame here, its me." Rebecca says. "How do you figure that?" Andy asks. "I'm the one that ended our marriage before I was sent to Colossal Heights, and that pushed you into Daisy's arms." Rebecca notes. "None of this is your fault. You were trying to be selfless." Andy says. "I know that...but, a part of me regrets being selfless, you know?" Rebecca says. "Why? Because of Daisy?" Andy asks. Rebecca flashes back.

"Have you forgotten that I am the one who divorced Andy? What makes you think I still love him?" Rebecca asks. "I don't know, the way you wanted to save him from Daisy, the way you say his name, the way you look at him...simple things like that. You need to stop being a wimp and tell him how you feel." Bethany says. "I am not being a wimp!" Rebecca argues. "Okay, then you are being incredibly stubborn!" Bethany says. "My God, I never thought I'd see the day where you of all people would become Andy and I's biggest cheerleader." Rebecca says. "Me neither, but here we are. You need to tell him how you feel, stop waiting for the right time! That's just an excuse to avoid doing it! Go to him!" Bethany urges.

"No, because of you. When I ended our marriage, I destroyed any chance of us ever being together again." Rebecca claims. "It kind of sounds like you want us to be together again." Andy notes. "Maybe that's because I do. The truth is...I was never able to get over you, I'm still in love with you." Rebecca admits!

I am going to go to Andy, and I am going to tell him that I am pregnant with his baby." Daisy says. "I got that, but to do that, you'd have to actually be pregnant." Dylan points out. "And I will be." Daisy says. "How? Andy is never going to touch you again!" Dylan points out. "That's the genius part, Dylan. I'm going to convince Andy that the baby is his, but Andy isn't the one who is going to get me pregnant...you are." Daisy claims. Dylan's eyes widen. "What the hell are you talking about?!" Dylan asks. "I don't think I can be any clearer. You and I are going to have a baby together." Daisy says. Dylan stands up. "No, no we're not! That idea is absurd!" Dylan points out. "Quit being such a baby, we are both adults here, there's nothing wrong with it!" Daisy says. "I can think of a laundry list of reasons that this is wrong!" Dylan says. "Like what? You wouldn't be cheating on Lydia because she dumped you, and I wouldn't be cheating on Andy because he is taking a break from me. Plus, you'd be contributing to a good cause." Daisy says. "Daisy, um, Andy isn't just taking a break from you, he has completely broken things off with you! In fact, I'm willing to bet that if you were on fire, Andy probably wouldn't even spit in your direction." Dylan says. "Unfortunately, with how mad Andy is at me right now, you might be right. But, that is why I need this little bundle of joy to change his opinion of me!" Daisy says. "But the baby wouldn't actually be Andy's, it would be mine!" Dylan points out. "Please, like you care all that much about being a father. Don't you have a daughter? How often have you talked to her since you came back from the dead?" Daisy asks. "I don't know...once or twice. She called me on Christmas, but I forgot to call her back." Dylan says. "My point exactly! You couldn't care less about having children, which is why you are the perfect person to do this with me! You aren't going to fight me for the kid, you will happily step aside, keep your mouth shut, and let Andy and I raise the little miracle from heaven on our own." Daisy says. "What if Andy decides to run a DNA test? You don't think he'd be suspicious if you turned up pregnant, immediately after your break up?" Dylan asks. "That's easy, we'll just find a way to tamper with the DNA test." Daisy says. "Oh yeah, no biggie. What's one more crime on your ever growing rap sheet? Well, let me ask you this, since you seem to have all the answers. What is Andy going to say when you pop out this baby, and its white as a freaking ghost? Andy has a darker skin tone, so I think it stands to reason that his child might inherit some of that. Meanwhile, you and I are both white, which means our child would be...you guessed it! WHITE!" Dylan says. "Will you stop overthinking this?! I don't care about any of that! This is my ONLY chance to win Andy back!" Daisy declares. "Well then I suggest you look into hiring a male escort, because there is no way I am going to get you pregnant!" Dylan says. "Why not?" Daisy asks. "Because I don't want to!" Dylan states. "Well I don't want to go to prison, and I could've gotten myself a lighter sentence if I had told the police that you helped me!" Daisy points out. Dylan rolls his eyes. "Here we go..." Dylan mumbles. "You still owe me for protecting you from the police, you little ingrate! I helped you, and now, you are going to help me!" Daisy states.

"Wow..." Andy says. "You seem surprised." Rebecca notes. "Well, you were the one who insisted on the divorce." Andy recalls. "Only because I assumed I would be locked up for decades! While I was in the asylum, I tried so hard to put you out of my mind, but...I couldn't do it. Besides Ava, you have ALWAYS been the most important person in my life...my soulmate! I...I was foolish to think that I could just move on and forget." Rebecca says. "It was a lot easier said than done for me, too. Sure, I got involved with Daisy, and things did get serious between the two of us, but...a part of me was never able to let go of you, and I convinced myself that was normal, because of everything we had been through together, because we share a daughter. The morning of my wedding, I had a talk with Josephine down at the station, and she asked me if I was completely over you. I told Josephine that I accepted your decision to get a divorce, that I had moved on, but...I couldn't bring myself to say I didn't love you anymore, because the truth is I do still love you. You were, and still are, the one true love of my life, and even if Daisy didn't turn out to be a complete monster, I'm not sure I'd ever be as happy with her as I was with you. I guess Daisy's insecurities weren't completely unfounded, because you are still in my heart, you never left." Andy says. "Maybe, but...I never had any intention of coming between you and Daisy, just as you had no intention of leaving her for me." Rebecca notes. "So what's stopping us now? Daisy is out of my life now, you have been released from the asylum, Ava is awake and home, that entire mess with Andre is behind us, there is nothing stopping us from being a family again." Andy tells her. "Are...are you sure?" Rebecca asks. "Absolutely. I was at my happiest when I was with you, and ever since our marriage ended, a piece of my heart has been missing. I love you, Rebecca, and there is no doubt in my mind that you are the person I'm destined to spend the rest of my life with." Andy says. Rebecca smiles. "I feel the exact same way." Rebecca says, before kissing Andy! Suddenly, Andy and Rebecca hear clapping. They stop kissing, turn, and see Bethany standing there! "You took my advice, Rebecca! Good for you!" Bethany says. "What?" A confused Andy asks. "Bethany has been encouraging me to fight for you." Rebecca reveals. "Bethany wants us together?" Andy asks. "Stranger things have happened." Bethany notes.

In the Goo Living Room, Victor is reading the newspaper, when Brady storms into the room. "You look like hell." Victor notes. "I just came from seeing Kristina. Whatever they did to her, Dad, it isn't gonna be easy to undo. She completely believes that she is The Evil Force, and nothing is gonna change her mind!" Brady says. "Maybe to reverse what was done to her, they need to perform another procedure on her." Victor suggests. "I already thought of that, but we'd have to find the doctor who performed the original procedure. But, even if we did, we don't know that the doctor would agree to reverse what they did, and even if they did, Kristina would have to consent to it, and we both know she's not gonna do that!" Brady says. "Don't worry. Whatever it takes, we will find a way to get Kristina back, I promise you." Victor says. "I'm kinda surprised to see you fighting so hard for Kristina. You couldn't stand her before." Brady recalls. "Maybe, but I saw how devastated you were after Kristina's death. If getting her back fulfills you again, I want that for you." Victor says. The doorbell rings. "The maid has the day off. I'll get it." Victor says, before walking out. Brady paces the floor, and a moment later, Victor walks back in. "Who was it? Girl scouts?" Brady asks. "Not exactly." Victor says, as he holds out an envelope. Brady takes the envelope, and looks at it. "This says its from The Evil Force..." Brady notes.

At the Stanpatos mansion, The Master enters the living room, where Evil Kristina is sitting. "Father, I have excellent news. I've sent out the invitations for your event later this evening. They should be arriving as we speak." The Master reveals. Evil Kristina smiles. "Let the games begin." Evil Kristina says...

"Andy and I got one, as well." Victor says. Brady begins to open the envelope, and pulls out a paper. "You are invited to celebrate the grand return of The Evil Force, tonight, at the Stanpatos mansion...that son of a bitch!" Brady yells. "Why would he invite you when you have been nothing but a pain in the ass to him?" Victor asks. "Because he's psychotic! He wants to rub it in my face that even though Kristina is back physically, she's not back mentally because he has control over her body!" Brady says. "Are you going to attend?" Victor asks. "Damn right I am. I am going to take every chance I can get to try and break this guy's spell over my wife!" Brady announces.

"So, you two are besties now, huh?" Andy asks Rebecca and Bethany. The two share a glance. "We've...worked through our issues." Rebecca says. "As much as Rebecca hates to admit it, we have a lot more in common than we thought." Bethany says. Someone knocks on the door. "I'll get it." Bethany says. Bethany opens the door, and finds two envelopes taped to the door. "What the hell..." Bethany mumbles. "Is everything okay?" Rebecca asks. "You and I got some kind of letter from The Evil Force." Bethany reveals. "Kristina?" Andy asks. "I don't know, I guess." Bethany says. "Careful when you open it." Andy warns. "Its an envelope, Andy. I think I'll live." Bethany says, as she opens the envelope. "Oh, fun, he's invited me to some party he's holding at the Stanpatos mansion tonight." Bethany reveals. "I'm guessing I got an invite, too. Why would The Evil Force invite us? The only time he's ever been in your orbit was when he sabotaged Stanpatos Enterprises while you were running it, and I've never even met the man! As himself or in Kristina's body!" Rebecca says. Andy's phone begins to ring. "I've gotta take this." Andy says, before answering. "Uncle Vic, what's up?" Andy asks. "I'm just calling to give you a head's up. Brady and I were both invited to an event at the Stanpatos mansion tonight, and you have an envelope here from The Evil Force, as well. I'm assuming you also got an invitation." Victor says. "I'm here with Rebecca and Bethany, they got invites, too." Andy reveals. "Why would The Evil Force care about them?" Victor asks. "No clue. Thanks for the heads up, I'll talk to you later." Andy says, before hanging up. "Turns out, Victor, Brady, and I got invites, too." Andy reveals. "Sounds like Evil Kristina is planning quite the bash." Bethany says. "I don't like the sound of any of this. You two should stay home." Andy urges. "I don't know, I'm kind of curious about this whole thing." Rebecca says. "Plus, I'd like to have a word with The Evil Force for sabotaging me." Bethany says. Andy sighs. "Okay, I guess that settles it then, we're all going." Andy says.

In Lucas' hotel room, Lucas and Lydia are sitting on his bed. "So, now that we are officially back together, lets discuss your living arrangements." Lydia says. "Um, okay. Well, this is only temporary, until I can get a place of my own. Believe me, I'm not too crazy about living in a hotel room, either." Lucas says. "Who says you need to get a place of your own? You could just move in with me." Lydia suggests. "Don't you think you are moving a little too fast?" Lucas asks. "Not at all! We never should have been apart to begin with. I see no reason why we shouldn't pick up exactly where we left off." Lydia says. Lucas smiles. "Okay, you talked me into it." Lucas tells her. "Really? I don't have to do anymore arm twisting?" Lydia asks. Lucas chuckles. "No, if me moving in is what you want, I'm all for it." Lucas says. "Then why did you hesitate earlier?" Lydia asks. "Only because I wanted to make sure you wanted it, first." Lucas tells her. Lydia smiles. "I want it more than anything." Lydia says, before kissing Lucas. Someone knocks at the door. "Oh for crying out loud...I'll get rid of them." Lucas says. "What if its important?" Lydia asks. "More important than you? I doubt it." Lucas says. Lucas stands up, opens the door, and finds an envelope stuck to his door. "What is it?" Lydia asks. Lucas opens the envelope, and reads it. "The Evil Force has invited me to an event at the Stanpatos mansion tonight." Lucas reveals. "Oh...I assume you don't want to go, right?" Lydia asks. "Actually, I do." Lucas admits. "What? Why? It could be a trap!" Lydia points out. "I know that, but I need to go and see Kristina for myself. After all, she was my best friend. I want to look into her eyes and see if there is any sign of my friend in there. Besides, I also want the chance to confront the person that nearly killed us." Lucas says. Lydia sighs. "Okay, I get it. Just, promise me you'll be careful." Lydia says. "I'll do my best." Lucas says. "Really reassuring. I'll leave you to get ready. Just, check in with me every fifteen minutes so I know you are still alive." Lydia says. "That I can manage, any excuse to talk to you." Lucas says. Lydia smiles, and kisses Lucas. "I love you." Lydia says. "I love you, too." Lucas responds. Lydia then walks out.

"Here is an idea. Rather than trying to win Andy back, how about you try and find someone new? You know, play the field a bit, see who's out there." Dylan suggests. "Let me explain this to you since you obviously aren't comprehending. This baby isn't just about winning Andy back, it could also be the key in keeping me out of prison! So, if I don't get pregnant, and give Andy a child, then not only am I going to lose him, but I am going to lose my freedom, and I'm pretty sure I won't have access to any dating websites once I'm locked up!" Daisy snaps. "You could always flirt with one of the guards, and if that doesn't work, maybe you could take the chance to experiment with women. After all, your options will be limited." Dylan says. "The only reason you aren't in the same boat as me, you ungrateful bastard, is because I didn't rat you out to the police! Please, help me!" Daisy pleads. "Believe what you want, but I actually do want to help you." Dylan says. "You do?" Daisy asks. "Yes! Look, I sort of understand why you did what you did to Rebecca. You were feeling insecure, you were scared that you were going to lose the man that you love, I understand that. And, not only that, but like you keep reminding me, you did protect me, and I am grateful for that." Dylan says. "I don't want your sympathy or your gratitude, I want you to help me!" Daisy says. "I can't help you, at least not in the way you want me to. Literally, ask me to do anything else, and I will, just not that!" Dylan says. "I'm that disgusting, huh?" Daisy asks. "That's not fair, you know that's not what I meant." Dylan says. "I don't care what you meant! My happiness depends on this baby, Dylan!" Daisy says. "I know you are desperate." Dylan says. "You're damn right I'm desperate! The time I've been with Andy is the only time in my entire life where I've actually felt happy, where I felt like I mattered to someone! Now...I'm back to being nothing." Daisy cries. "You aren't nothing." Dylan says. "I think Andy would probably disagree with you there." Daisy says. "If that's really the case, then why do you still want to be with him?" Dylan asks. Before Daisy can answer, someone knocks on the door. "Hold that thought." Dylan says. Daisy wipes away her tears, as Dylan answers the door. Dylan comes back in, holding an envelope. "What's that?" Daisy asks. Dylan looks at the contents of the envelope, and begins to chuckle. "Unbelievable. That son of a bitch steals my company from me, and now, he has the audacity to send me this?" Dylan asks. "Wait, The Evil Force sent you something? What does it say?" Daisy asks. "Its an invitation. He's throwing a party tonight, and he wants me to come." Dylan says. "Are you going?" Daisy asks. "Well, I must admit, I am curious about what he wants. Plus, its not like I have anything else going on." Dylan notes. "Want some company?" Daisy asks. "You want to go with me?" A surprised Dylan asks. "Sure." Daisy says. "We were just arguing." Dylan points out. "I prefer to call it a friendly debate." Daisy says. "You were in tears." Dylan reminds her. "Yeah, so? I get a little emotional sometimes." Daisy says. "Right...why exactly do you want to go to this event?" Dylan asks. "I don't know...it could be fun." Daisy says. "The essence of a dead terrorist who possessed the body of a dead fashion designer is hosting it. It could be a disaster!" Dylan points out. "Will you shut up and just agree to let me come?" Daisy asks. "I will agree to bring you, under one condition: no more baby talk." Dylan says. "I'll table the discussion." Daisy says. "You'll do more than just table it!" Dylan says. "I am going to table it, and that's the best I can offer you!" Daisy says. Dylan sighs. "Okay, fine. Here's hoping that you and I have such a good time tonight, we can briefly forget about our troubles." Dylan says. "One can only hope." Daisy agrees.

Outside the Stanpatos mansion, Lucas arrives at the front door. "Can I see your invitation, sir?" A guard asks. "Of course." Lucas says, as he pulls out his invitation. "Go in." The guard urges. Lucas nods, and heads inside. Lucas walks in through the foyer, and into the living room, where he notices Lydia! "Lydia?" Lucas asks. Lydia turns towards him. "Hey, I'm glad you could make it." Lydia says. "Thanks. What are you doing here? You didn't mention anything to me about coming." Lucas notes. "I wasn't planning to. But, after I left your place, I went home, and found an invitation taped to my door. My first impulse was to burn it, but I didn't feel comfortable letting you come and face Kristina alone." Lydia says. Evil Kristina walks up behind Lucas and Lydia. "I suppose then that it is a good thing Kristina no longer exists. Mr. Cambino, Miss. Masters, allow me to introduce myself. I am The Evil Force." Evil Kristina says. "I know who you are...you're my best friend. Look, I don't know what was done to you, but what I do know is that there is no way they were able to erase you. You are one of the toughest people I've ever met, Kristina, and I know for a fact that you would never give up fighting. I know you are fighting to breakthrough, and I know that you can win." Lucas says. "I must admit, that was a valiant effort on your part. However, I am afraid you wasted your breath. In fact, Kristina's husband already attempted to reach her, and much like you, he failed." Evil Kristina says. Evil Kristina turns towards Lydia. "But, enough talk of the deceased. Miss. Masters, I am pleased that you could make it, I've been meaning to contact you." Evil Kristina says. "Oh?" Lydia asks. "I was hoping that you and I may be able to forge a partnership of some kind. Don't you think that it is high time Stanpatos Enterprises and Masters Corp lower their weapons, and form a mutually beneficial partnership? If you'd like, perhaps I could take you out to dinner, and we could explore the possibilities further." Evil Kristina says. "I don't think so. Lydia isn't going anywhere with you, not after you tried to kill her." Lucas says. "I was not speaking to you." Evil Kristina notes. "Regardless, Lucas said exactly what I was going to say. I have no interest in partnering up with you." Lydia says. "How unfortunate that someone as beautiful and intelligent as yourself is allowing a simple minded peasant like him to speak on your behalf. Perhaps a partnership between our companies is not the best idea after all. Enjoy your evening." Evil Kristina says, before walking away. "That was odd. Why would an evil terrorist want to partner up with you?" Lucas asks. "I'm not sure it was a partnership she was after, at least not business related." Lydia says. "What do you mean?" Lucas asks. "Well, to be perfectly honest, it felt as if Kristina was flirting with me." Lydia notes. "Really?" Lucas asks. "She asked me out to dinner, she called me beautiful and intelligent." Lydia notes. "Well, I guess it makes sense that she would be interested in women. After all, she's been brainwashed into thinking she is The Evil Force." Lucas says. "Well thankfully, it seems like she lost interest in me." Lydia says. "I don't know how anyone could lose interest in you. But, I'm not going to question it." Lucas says. Lydia laughs.

Across the room, Brady and Victor are standing together. "A lot of people showed up." Brady notes. "Of course they did. They are probably expecting a train wreck." Victor says. "Not everyone is here for the potential train wreck." A voice says. Brady and Victor turn, and see Acerbi. "What are you doing here? Are you working with Kristina?" Brady asks. "What on earth would give you that idea?" Acerbi asks. "It wouldn't be the first time you've helped The Evil Force, and Kristina thinks that she is him." Victor says. "Which makes me wonder...are you the doctor that turned my wife into that power hungry lunatic?" Brady asks. "I had nothing to do with whatever was done to your wife. In fact, the reason I came to this party was because I am intrigued by the subject of bringing one back from the dead by transferring their consciousness to a new vessel, I thought perhaps Kristina...or rather The Evil Force, could enlighten me." Acerbi says. "If you find anything out about who turned Kristina into The Evil Force, can you let us know?" Victor asks. "I will see what I can find. Excuse me." Acerbi says, before walking away.
Acerbi walks across the room, and joins Evil Kristina. "You look quite different from the last time I saw you." Acerbi notes. "Ah, Doctor Acerbi! How nice to see you again! Tell me, how long has it been?" Evil Kristina asks. "Since the unfortunate closure of my clinic." Acerbi recalls. "When you managed to bring me back from the brink of death." Evil Kristina adds. "It appears you have once again cheated death. This time by taking residence in Kristina Cat's body." Acerbi notes. "It may have belonged to Kristina at one point, but this body is mine, now." Evil Kristina says. "How did you manage this? I have been in the business of changing science fiction into reality for decades, so how is it that you managed to transfer your essence from your original body, into Kristina?" Acerbi asks. "I did not do a thing. My son The Master is the one who orchestrated my return." Evil Kristina says. "You aren't familiar with the specifics? If not, perhaps you could provide me with the name of the doctor who performed the procedure. I really am intrigued by this." Acerbi says. "As much as I would love to share that information with you, it would be terrible of me to disclose the doctor's identity, when they would likely rather this information remain confidential." Evil Kristina says. Josephine walks over to the two. "What's going on here?" Josephine asks. "Doctor Acerbi and I were catching up. By the way, I heard that the two of you are now mother and daughter." Evil Kristina says. "We are, which is why you'd be smart to keep your distance from her." Josephine warns. "As you wish. It was lovely catching up with you, Doctor Acerbi. I hope we can do it again, soon." Evil Kristina says, before walking off. "Please tell me you aren't mixed up in this!" Josephine says. "Calm yourself! As a woman of science, I was simply interested in how The Evil Force returned from the dead in the body that once belonged to Kristina Cat." Acerbi says. "Did The Evil Force give you any details that we could use?" Josephine asks. "Not much. I requested the identity of the doctor who performed the procedure, but The Evil Force would not disclose that information to me." Acerbi admits. "Which means we are back to square one when it comes to getting Kristina back." Josephine says.

Andy, Rebecca, and Bethany enter the living room, and Bethany immediately spots Lucas and Lydia nearby. "You have got to be freaking kidding me." Bethany says. "Bethany, I understand that you are angry, but try not to do anything stupid." Rebecca urges. Bethany doesn't respond, grabs a martini from one of the waiters, and then heads towards Lucas and Lydia! "Well, you certainly didn't waste any time moving on, did you?" Bethany asks. "Bethany, I wasn't expecting to see you here." Lucas notes. "Clearly. Tell me, Lucas, do you remember us breaking up? Because I'm struggling to remember." Bethany says. "It seemed pretty clear to me that you wanted nothing to do with me." Lucas says. "No, I was pissed off because on top of losing my company and possibly going to prison, I found out that you and Lydia ran off on a trip together without telling me!" Bethany says. "I'm sorry." Lucas tells her. "You aren't sorry! If you were, you wouldn't be flaunting this bitch in front of me! If you were sorry, you would've called to let me know that we were over, instead of having me find out like this! Well let me tell you this, you son of a bitch! I am tired of being walked all over by people who think they can get away with it! Alexios cheated on me and kept it a secret, you've been lying to me about your feelings for Lydia since the moment we got together, well I'm over it! The truth is, I don't need love! I am much happier and stronger on my own, and that is how its going to be for now on." Bethany says. "Trust me when I say that I feel terrible about hurting you. I know all too well the pain that Alexios caused you, and then to turn around and do the same thing...but, you have to know that I wasn't lying about how I felt about you. I really did care for you a great deal, and I'm sorry it had to be this way." Lucas says. "No you're not...but you're gonna be." Bethany says, before throwing her drink in Lucas' face! "Wow! I feel a lot better now! You two crazy kids enjoy your night." Bethany says, before walking away. "That was ugly." Lydia admits. "I deserved it. Bethany is right, I hurt her, and there is nothing I can do to repair that damage." Lucas says.

Across the room, Andy and Rebecca approach Evil Kristina. "Hello Andy, I've been hoping to run into you." Evil Kristina says. "Why'd you invite me?" Andy asks. "We're old friends, I was hoping that we could get reacquainted." Evil Kristina says. "Speaking of old friends, any chance The Master will be attending? I'd love to catch up with him." Andy says. "I'm afraid I have no idea where my son is. His legal difficulties have made it rather difficult to spend time with him." Evil Kristina lies. "Somehow I doubt that. But, I didn't come over here to talk about your son." Andy says. "No? Then why did you approach me?" Evil Kristina asks. "To put you on notice. You better be on your best behavior. You may have skated on the crimes you committed when you were in your old body, but if you commit any new ones, you can bet your sorry ass that I'll be there to toss you into jail, and that's only assuming that they don't turn you back into Kristina, first." Andy says. "I have no reason to suspect things will end badly for me. You see, given my new lease on life, I have decided to turn over a new leaf." Evil Kristina claims. "I think that's a load of crap." Andy says. "You can draw as many wrong conclusions as you want, you usually do." Evil Kristina says. Evil Kristina turns towards Rebecca. "You must be the famous Rebecca Rogers, it is an honor." Evil Kristina says. "The feeling isn't mutual." Rebecca says. "While I have you here, I'd actually like to thank you." Evil Kristina says. "For?" Rebecca asks. "Killing Andre Stanpatos, of course. That man was once a huge problem for my son, and I am pleased to know that someone has finally ended him." Evil Kristina says. "Regardless of what Andre may have done, I do regret killing him. I was a cop, and it was not my job to play the role of judge, jury, and executioner." Rebecca says. "Why would you ever apologize for ridding the world of that annoyance? You should never have been committed! You should have been praised, you should have been thrown a parade! You did this planet a service." Evil Kristina says. "Maybe, but it wasn't my place to do so. By the way, might I ask why you are showering me with praise?" Rebecca asks. "I am merely recognizing a job well done." Evil Kristina says. "You might not think so, soon. You see, I have every intention of helping Andy bring you to justice." Rebecca says. "I see that the two of you are quite in sync. Might I assume that means you have reunited?" Evil Kristina asks. "That's none of your business." Andy says. "Well, let me just add that you made an excellent choice. Rebecca appears to be quite the catch, which is more than I can say for your former fiancee. I heard what she did to Rebecca, the girl is clearly unstable." Evil Kristina says. "And you are the picture of stability, huh? Daisy could spend the rest of her life committing crimes, and she'd never be on the same level of evil as you and your psychotic son." Andy says. "I appreciate the compliment. In any event, I should return to mingling. Rebecca, it was a pleasure meeting you, I hope to be seeing more of you in the coming months." Evil Kristina says, before walking away. "That was weird." Rebecca notes. "Don't worry, I won't let him hurt you." Andy assures Rebecca. "I appreciate your protectiveness, but I'm sure you know by now I can handle myself." Rebecca says. "Course I do. But, it wouldn't hurt for me to have your back." Andy says. "I suppose not." Rebecca says.

Outside, Dylan and Daisy arrive at the front door. "Invitation?" The guard asks. "Here you go." Dylan says, as he hands the guard his. The guard turns towards Daisy. "Invitation?" The guard asks. "I'm his plus one." Daisy reveals. "That's not how this works. If you didn't receive an invitation, you aren't allowed in." The guard states. "Oh come on, those rules seem kinda strict. Can't you make an exception?" Daisy asks. The guard doesn't respond. "Okay, let me handle this." Dylan says. Dylan pulls the guard aside. "I know why you are doing this...you probably value your job. But, I'm sure that The Evil Force can't keep track of all the people who didn't get invitations, so he won't notice if someone is there that isn't supposed to be. I'll tell you what, to compensate you for your troubles, how does $100 sound?" Dylan asks. "The answer is no, and if you try to bribe me again, I'll strip you of your invitation, and you won't be getting in either!" The guard warns. Dylan and the guard turn, and see that Daisy is gone! "Where'd she go?" The guard asks. "Well, you were being so difficult, she probably left. I'm going to head inside now." Dylan says, before going inside.

In the living room, Andy and Rebecca are drinking and laughing together, when Daisy walks up to them. "Really, Andy? Our wedding was yesterday, and you've already reunited with Rebecca?" Daisy asks. "You don't have any right to be upset after the stunts you've been pulling." Andy argues. "Well, this only proves my point! Rebecca was a threat to our relationship!" Daisy states. "Want to go find a more quiet corner?" Rebecca asks Andy. "Gladly." Andy says. "I know that you hate me right now, but I want you to know that I'm not giving up on us." Daisy says. Dylan arrives, and hands Daisy a drink. "There you are, I was wondering where you wandered off to." Dylan says. "Thank you." Daisy tells Dylan. Daisy then turns towards Andy. "No need to be jealous, Dylan and I are here as just friends." Daisy assures him. "Trust me, I'm not. Have a nice night." Andy says, before he and Rebecca walk away. Once they are far away enough, Daisy lets out a frustrated growl. "That vindictive bitch!" Daisy shouts. "Who? Rebecca?" Dylan asks. "Yes Rebecca! Can you believe that she and Andy are already back together? I bet she couldn't wait to swoop in and help him pick up the pieces! You see, this is why we need to conceive a baby that I can pass of as Andy's!" Daisy says. "You know, this probably isn't the best place to discuss that particular topic." Dylan says. Dylan notices Lucas and Lydia nearby. "Are you going to drink your wine? I could really use another glass." Daisy says. Dylan hands Daisy the wine. "Its yours. I'll be back." Dylan says, before walking off. Daisy smirks when she sees him heading towards Lucas and Lydia. "This should be interesting." Daisy notes.

Dylan joins Lucas and Lydia. "Hello, you two. Lucas, I couldn't help but notice you are a little damp. I'm assuming that was compliments of Bethany." Dylan says. "Keep walking, Stanpatos." Lucas urges. "Why are you acting as if you are the wounded party? Have you forgotten it was my wife you kissed, who you've been pining after since the moment YOU left her?" Dylan asks. "I'm not acting like I'm the wounded party, I'm acting as if you are the dirt bag that framed Bethany for gaslighting Rebecca." Lucas says. "Isn't this rich, the mobster is going to lecture me on right and wrong. Well, here is a hot take for the two of you. Lydia may have had a right to be angry with me for what I did to Bethany, but she had no idea what I did to Bethany when she kissed you, and professed her love to you. In fact, I hadn't done a thing to Bethany when the two of you nearly kissed on that elevator, and you tried to pass it off as nostalgia." Dylan recalls. "I'm sorry I hurt you, but I'm not sorry we ended things. Obviously, you and I didn't know each other as well as we thought." Lydia says. "Oh, I entirely agree. For example, I had no clue that you were such a floozy." Dylan says. "You watch the way you talk about her." Lucas warns. "Or what? I will mysteriously fall into the river, wearing cement shoes? You know, if I were you, I'd be careful, Lucas. If Lydia was willing to cheat with you, don't act so surprised when she inevitably cheats on you." Dylan warns. Suddenly, Lucas punches Dylan! "Oh my God!" Lydia gasps. Josephine rushes over to the scene. "Is everything alright here?" Josephine asks. "Everything is just fine and dandy." Dylan claims. "You ever talk that way about Lydia again, and I'll do a lot more than punch you!" Lucas threatens. "I'd like to see you try." Dylan says. Josephine turns towards Dylan. "Will you shut the hell up before you make things worse?" Josephine asks. "Me? He's the one that punched me!" Dylan points out. "Right. Would you like to press charges?" Josephine asks. "Well, as much as I would love to see you haul Lucas off to jail, I don't want to do anything that will keep me in the orbit of these two for another second. Consider this a gift, Lucas, you're welcome." Dylan says. "Go to hell." Lucas says. Dylan chuckles, before walking away. "Keep your fists to yourself from now on." Josephine tells Lucas. "He's the one that came over here and picked a fight." Lucas says. "He started it? Seriously? Are we back in elementary school? I don't care who started it, you don't go around punching people! Try and remember that." Josephine says, before walking off. "I'm sorry." Lucas tells Lydia. "Me too. Thank you, by the way, for defending me like that. But, for future reference, I can defend myself." Lydia says. "I'm sorry I made an ass out of myself." Lucas says. Lydia smiles. "I think I can forgive you this one time." Lydia says, before pulling Lucas into a kiss.

Across the room, Evil Kristina approaches Bethany. "I couldn't help but notice that little argument between you and Lucas Cambino, earlier. You certainly handled him. I was impressed." Evil Kristina says. "I'm not interested in a compliment from the person that stole Stanpatos Enterprises from me." Bethany says. "I didn't steal Stanpatos Enterprises from you. I stole it from Dylan, who stole it from you. In a way, you and I are on the same side. It would appear that we have a common enemy in Dylan Stanpatos." Evil Kristina notes. "If we were on the same side, that would imply we aren't enemies." Bethany points out. "We don't have to be. You and I could make for some excellent allies." Evil Kristina suggests. "Sorry to burst your bubble, sweetie, but now that my legal problems have been resolved, I plan on coming after control of Stanpatos Enterprises again." Bethany says. "I'm afraid that will be much easier said than done. However, I still believe that you and I could form a partnership. You are intelligent, ruthless, and not to mention incredibly beautiful. I think an alliance between you and I would be beneficial in many ways." Evil Kristina says. Bethany smiles. "Not a chance in hell." Bethany responds, before storming off. Evil Kristina smiles, and exits the room...

Across the room, Dylan rejoins Daisy. "Well, Lydia sure didn't waste any time moving on." Dylan says. "I saw Lucas punch you. You should really consider pressing charges, just to stick it to them." Daisy suggests. "I thought about it, but it would be a waste of time. Lydia isn't worth fighting over anymore. The same is true for Andy, you know." Dylan says. Daisy rolls her eyes. "This again?" Daisy asks. "I mean it! You would be smart to just cut your losses, and move on." Dylan says. "That's not going to happen. I won't give up on him." Daisy says. "He's not going to take you back, Daisy. Baby or no baby." Dylan says. "We'll see. Anyways, I am going to go and check my makeup real quick." Daisy says. "You look fine." Dylan notes. "I need to look better than fine if I'm going to win Andy back." Daisy says. "Are you sure you are going to check your makeup?" Dylan says. "Would I lie to my fellow outcast?" Daisy asks. "Probably." Dylan says. "I'll be back soon. Try not to miss me too much." Daisy says. "I'll be counting the minutes until your return." Dylan sarcastically says. Daisy smiles, before walking out of the room.

Evil Kristina enters the study, and closes the doors behind her. "Its me, you can come out." Evil Kristina says. A panel in the wall opens, and The Master emerges from the secret tunnels. "Is the party over already?" The Master asks. "It might as well be. I orchestrated this event so that I could find the perfect partner to join me on my quest for world domination, and now, I have." Evil Kristina reveals. "Well done, father! So tell me, who is the lucky woman?" The Master asks. Before Evil Kristina can answer, the doors swing open! The Master and Evil Kristina turn towards the doorway, and see Daisy standing there! "Bloody hell." The Master complains. "So this is where the party is, huh?" Daisy asks. "Its you." Evil Kristina growls. "Is that all you have to say? Come on now, that's no way to greet your daughter." Daisy says!
