FRIDAY AUGUST 7, 1998

SS NEPTUNE II

PERILOUS MOMENTS: Gabi nearly fell, but Ricardo climbed up to her and they made it to safety. The bottom part of the ladder dropped off just as they reached the top of the ladder. While Sean pulled the others up, Brad, Ricardo and Gabi went to make sure that the path ahead was clear.

DEATH OF A MADMAN: Phillip shot at Cole, but Francesca jumped in front of him. She took the bullet in her upper arm. Cole and Phillip fought. The gun went off, and Phillip was hit. His dying words to Francesca were that Cole would never love her. After realizing that Phillip really was dead, Francesca declared that she was finally free. Later, Cole confessed his regrets regarding Phillip to Antonio, who counseled him to tell Caitlin the truth about his past with Francesca.

Antonio and the others were reunited with Ricardo and his gang. While Emily was bandaging Francesca's wound, Francesca told Bette that she must be proud of her daughter. Bette agreed that she was. Emily and Bette worried about how much blood Francesca has lost.

The next part of the path was flooded. Ricardo swam it underwater, leading a rope between the two points and leaving Gabi to time how long it takes to make the swim. However, a pipe landed on him while he was swimming. When Brad refused to save Ricardo, Gabi went after him.

THE OCEAN: While Melinda was in the process of vowing that she'll never speak to her agent again, the film floated out of her cleavage. She begged Casey to get the film back for her. Casey guessed correctly that the film was pictures of him and Sara naked in her bed. He threw the film back to her. When a shark attacked Melinda, Casey had to restrain Sara from trying to rescue her. Casey and Sara clung to a floating piece of debris and swam for shore.

SOUTH BAY GENERAL: When she realized that Bette was on the ship, Annie told Olivia that she now knows what it's like to lose the most important person in her life. She was truly sorry for what she did to Olivia. However, Olivia didn't believe that Annie was repentant. Olivia vowed to keep her mouth shut, until the last possible moment, and then she'd tell everything. Then Annie would lose every scrap of security she had in the world, and Olivia would love every minute of it.

Gregory started to make plans to go to the capsized ship. AJ wanted to go along, but Gregory refused. When Leo offered to go with Gregory, Gregory decided to take him. AJ tried to convince Leo not to go, but Leo threw back AJ's own words about how important Cole is. AJ insisted that there was no time to explain why Cole was so important. When Gregory saw that AJ and Leo were on the outs, he agreed to take AJ along.

Olivia and AJ talked about AJ going with Gregory. AJ assured Olivia that all three of their children were going to be fine. AJ told Olivia that he wished that Leo knew how much he loves him. She reassured him that Leo did know, he was just angry. Before they left, AJ told Leo that there's a lot to say, and no time to say it. He left, affirming his love for his son. Gregory assured Annie that Bette is the best gossip columnist that he's ever had, and he's not going to lose her. Olivia made Gregory promise to bring their children back safely. Olivia and Gregory shared a tender moment while Annie watched jealously.
