SS NEPTUNE II

RESCUE MISSION: Ricardo tried to rally the passengers to leave the ballroom, but the stubborn crewmember refused to go anywhere. Several others agreed with him, believing he had the better knowledge of the boat. Ricardo found a railing that they could use as a ladder to climb out of the ballroom, but a number of people were skeptical. Gabi offered to be the first person to test the railing. After she successfully made it up, some others (Sean, Emily, Bette, Ricardo, Amy, and Brad) climbed up the railing, while some passengers opted to stay behind.

EDUCATION PAYING OFF!: Casey got the door open just in the nick of time. He and Sara rushed through the hallways, which were quickly filling up with water. While trying to make it to safety, Sara insisted on taking care of a large cut Casey had on his arm. He was impressed by her expertise. Sara explained Casey that she was a pre-med major, but she decided she couldn't hack medical school, so she quit.

TALK ABOUT SCREWED UP PRIORITIES!: Melinda realized that if Sara died, she'd be a martyr and no one would buy her book.

A DEAD END?: There was another explosion! When the walls of the dining room started to cave in, the people in the dining room scrambled onto the railing, which collapsed. Only Melinda and the cameraman made it to the top. Ricardo and the gang in the kitchen were horrified to hear the screams of the others trapped in the ballroom! Antonio wanted to go back and help, but Ricardo convinced him it was hopeless. When she caught up to the others, Melinda realized that she left the galley door open on her way through, and that water was coming in through it! Ricardo went ahead to check things out. When he returned, he admitted that things were worse than he thought.

TYUS'S SUNSET BEACH APARTMENT: When Michael told Vanessa that he gave himself Martin's Syndrome to test Tyus's cure, Vanessa lost her temper. She'd rather die herself than see Michael hurt! Michael insisted that he did it for her, because he could handle anything life threw at him, as long as he had her.

Meanwhile, Virginia discovered the cure in Tyus's medical bag. When Virginia realized that Michael and Vanessa were still trapped in the building, she went in after them. The police officer tried to stop her and in the scuffle, she dropped the vial.

MADAME CARMEN'S SHOP: Carmen prayed for God to watch over her children -- all three of them. While reading her Tarot cards, Carmen realized that Ricardo and Antonio were in danger.

CUMMINGS HOUSE: Meg told Dana how much she wished that she hadn't brought her parents to Sunset Beach. Upon seeing Meg's concern for her family, Dana confessed Meg that she wished she had a family. Later, Dana had another memory flash when Meg told her about how close Mark and Ben were. Meg told Dana about Mark, and how his death reminded Ben how he couldn't save someone else that he loved very much. Dana saw a picture of Ben and Meg together. Meg said that she felt that she might have made a new friend in Dana.
