In the wake of a devastating tragedy, a certain vixen makes her way back to Llandview. After the surprising death of Nash Brennan, Jessica descends into grief and rage, paving the way for Tess to once again take control. This time however, its for revenge as she sets her sights on her sister Natalie and her new lover Jared. I didnt really like Tess the first time around because she and Nash were getting in the way of Jessica and Antonio's relationship. But maybe I will be able to enjoy her second coming, especially since she's going after the people she feels is responsible for her husband's death. I can't wait to see what she has in store for them.

Lord, I hope she comes back. The show just haven't been the same without you.

 

How do I love thee --- let me count the ways! That's how I feel about Darnell Williams (Jesse) right now. The man is an incredible actor - and the way he can cry! Let's say it now - best move in years AMC - talking Darnell from behind the camera to be back in front of the camera! He's amazing! And kudos to finding a younger actor to play Frankie that is the spitting image of our hero! The other great twist this week is Ryan forgetting the last four years! This is going to be good - I can tell! Look out for a hot Greenlee/Ryan re-match. I have to offer a 'beg' to the writers! Please - no more babies for Kendall! I truly hope your teasing with the 'maybe pregnancy' --- she's been pregnant for the better part of three years now - and a pregnancy with Aidan? way too obvious! Can we just take a pass on this storyline...please? I don't know about you, but I'm already bored at the prospect of Erica and Mario Van Peebles --- because we all know that eventually she'll wind back up with Jack, so can we just skip this one? Ok...and last but not least on my thoughts for the week --- can we reunite Kate & Tad already??? Come on! Just how long are we going to drag this out? She's going to be in college soon (the way soaps love to speed up the aging process)... Is anyone else surprised at the likability of Tad and Krystal as a solid married couple? I for one like it alot! They are best friends, fun together, sassy with one another, and passionate! Love it!

Zack rubbed his eyes. He couldn't believe it, Erica Kane was alive!!! Why wasn't everyone else as shocked as he was. He looked around and seen that no one else noticed that Erica was alive.

"Er--" He started. She shushed him. She stepped out of the coffin and made her way over to him.

"Zack, find my killer." She ordered. "You and Kendall are the only two who will get the justice I deserve."

"But you're not dead." He argued.

"Dude, are you alright?" Tim asked, shaking Zack.

"Fine, thanks." Zack stood up and made a beeline for Kendall.

"You should be at the funeral to support Jackson." Jake gently told Greenlee.

"How can I show up to the funeral?" Greenlee asked "Especially when everyone knows that I despised that woman? And its not like Kendall or LesBianca want me there."

"But Jackson does," Jake smiled "And we both have a lot to make up for."

"How do you make up for kidnapping a child, getting into a horrible accident and causing the kid to go deaf?"

"The same you do for cheating on someone you actually cared about, then marrying the girl you cheated with, then had another affair with a guy this time." Both laughed.

"Why did you sleep with that guy?" She asked curiously.

"Carolyn was distant," Jake shrugged  "She wasn't touching me sexually. One night at the bar I ran into this guy who was shy. He told me he was gay and thought I was hot. One thing led to another, I got a motel room and we had sex. It was suppose to be a one time thing but I realized that my marriage to Carolyn was just a sham, she needed to get married to get her inheritance and I was a means to an end."

"But you stayed after that," Greenlee pointed out.

"Well after she walked in on us in our  bed, she finally told me she was pregnant. Thats why she didnt want to have sex." He continued. "Only I found out that she lied, there was no baby.  Right after that I got a call from Liza asking me to take care of Colby, so I jumped on the first plane back here."

"I couldn't be happier to have you back." Greenlee smiled

********************************************************************************

....There is no way in hell I will allow you to investigate my mothers death." Kendall was yelling, as Zack approached.

"Kendall I think we should let her." Zack said

"What?" Brooke, Kendall, and Jack asked in unison

"I think we should let Brooke investigate Ericas murder." Zack took a deep breath

"She'll lie and forge evidence." Kendall argued.

"She'll report directly to me and I'll have someone tailing her at all times so she cant tamper with the evidence." Zack said, regaining his confidence

"Fine" Kendall agreed "If she does anything wrong I want her ass thrown in jail."

"Deal." Zack and Brooke said in unison.

Babe made her way to Josh. She was convinced that showing up at Ericas funeral would mend the fences.

"Hi baby." She smiled when she seen him.

"Go away Babe," Josh moaned "I don't want to see you today or ever again."

"Josh I cant lose you too." Babe began to cry. "They're going to take away Little A because of the article."

"Well if you aren't his parents then they should find his biological parents." Josh said "I wish someone would have done that for me."

"This is different." Babe began

"I want you to leave." Josh demanded again, turning away from his wife.  Tears streamed down her eyes. She wiped them and looked up and let out a  blood curdling scream.

"Thats sweet of you to say," Jake smiled. "But Im sure you have plenty of questions for me."

"Why have an affair with a man?" Greenlee asked

"He was there," Jake shrugged. "Available, no one would ever suspect. And there was a mild curiosity."

"Are you gay?" She asked, surprisingly both of them

"No." He answered "I cant say that the sex was bad  but it just isn't for me."

Tim watched his sister as she comforted Bianca. He felt a twinge of guilt. He would tell her the truth soon. He turned and found Janet standing beside him.

"Baby boy!" She hugged him tightly. He was thrown by her suddenly dark brown hair.

"Janet what's going on with the new look?" He asked surveying her.

"Im trying to get another baby." She smiled.

"Please tell me this isn't a crazy scheme." He knew immediately that it was.

"Im going to try for custody of baby Jenny." She grinned. "And I want you to help me"

"No Janet." He shook his head. "I cant do that. And if you think you're going to blackmail with what happened to my dad, dont bother."

"No sweetheart what happened to Trevor was not either of our faults," Janet patted his shoulder. "I was hoping you'd help your family..."
