THURSDAY OCTOBER 1, 1998

CUMMINGS HOUSE: Maria came by to see if Ben liked the sketches that she did. Meg replied that he hasn't seen the drawings, but that she took one by his house. Maria said that she was pleased, but she acted distracted.

Hank and Joan left them alone, and Meg asked Maria what was wrong. Maria tried to make Meg believe that she was just tired, but she admitted that she saw Ben and Meg together. She went on to reveal that she had an odd feeling when she saw them, like when she put on the dress. Maria confessed to feeling jealous when she saw them together, and to being worried that she might turn out to be a terrible person when she gets her memory back.

Meg's wedding dress arrived, with a note saying that the lower part of the dress was ripped. Meg panicked when she saw the dress, but Maria fixed it. When she said that she was happy to help, Meg pointed out that if she were as awful as she is afraid she is, she wouldn't have been so happy to help out.

BEN'S HOUSE: When Ben asked Annie if she recognized the artist of the drawing, she admitted that Maria drew it. She claimed that she brought the picture over, saying that Maria wasn't proud of it when she drew it. So Annie took it and brought it over to give to Ben because she thought that it would be an appropriate wedding present. Ben lost his temper and threw Annie out of the house. Then Ben took a jewelry box out of his desk drawer and left the house.

CEDAR OAKS: Ricardo walked into "Dana's" room, to find that she had left. Tim was surprised when Ricardo mentioned that he planned to attend Ben and Meg's wedding. After Ricardo left, Tim congratulated himself on how, thanks to his efforts, everyone's lives will be, to his thoughts, improved -- Ben and Maria will be reunited, and he'll have Meg back.

SURF CENTRAL: When Vanessa caught her holding the vial of sperm, Virginia claimed it was sourdough starter that she had gotten to make a loaf of bread for Michael and Vanessa for a housewarming present, and put it back in the freezer. Vanessa went upstairs to take a nap, and Virginia brought herbal tea laced with a tranquilizer. Vanessa believed that it was purely a kind gesture. She drank the tea and fell asleep.

ST. JOSEPH'S: Gabi asked Antonio for a passage to put in her card for Meg and Ben. Oblivious to Antonio's growing discomfort, Gabi climbed onto a step stool to get a book. Antonio decided that he needed to leave the room and knocked Gabi off of the stool in the process. He caught her, and she thanked him. Later, Ricardo invited Gabi and Antonio to go out with him, but Antonio insisted that he couldn't make it.

MADAME CARMEN'S SHOP: Carmen was reading the cards when the three of swords came up. She said Meg's name and bolted.

CUMMINGS HOUSE: Maria told Meg that she had to go back to Cedar Oaks, so Meg walked her to the door just as Ben arrived. However, Ben's car alarm went off, so he had to go to turn it off, missing Maria's exit. Meg dissolved into tears when Ben gave her the box, which contained her pearl necklace. Outside, Carmen arrived and told Hank and Joan that she needed to see Meg -- immediately.

CEDAR OAKS: Maria returned, and vowed to attend the wedding, no matter how uncomfortable it may make her. She put the dress back on, and remembered that she was wearing a similar dress when she was drowning. A distressed Maria went out the window.

CUMMINGS HOUSE: At the moment Maria remembered drowning, Meg's necklace broke. Hank, Joan and Carmen returned to the house to find Ben and Meg picking up pearls. Carmen said that it was a sign that Meg and Ben's marriage isn't meant to be.
