Loma Vista: Episode 30. The Wrath: Part 2

   At The Gallery, Barbara sits outside on the patio, as Scarlet arrives, and tells her Mother "I am still stunned you would help me out of jail." Barbara warns her Daughter "I did so because of Blake, otherwise I'd left your ass there." Scarlet has a flashback (One month earlier, at The Benjamin Lodge, Scarlet sits in her motel room, as Lorenzo holds his Pistol, and tells Scarlet, as he paces back and forth "Since it seems you slept your way out of prison, here's a deal. You help me, and I'll get you off. Tell anybody, you will die.) Scarlet is silent, as Barbara notices a look of fear in Scarlet's eyes, as she asks "I hope you're not still a Madam." Scarlet assures her Mother "No, I'm trying to live right, and I want to see my Son, and my Grandson." Barbara checks her phone, as she goes "I'm just waiting to hear from Lacey. Wasn't for her, I'd had no idea you were out of prison." Scarlet has another flashback (At Riverside Psychiatric Hospital, a Doctor tells Scarlet "Since your the Grandmother, and the power of attorney, do you want your Grandson Ms.Morris?" Scarlet shakes her head, and responds "No.") At Barbara's Home, Tilly has arrived, as she holds Cole, and tells her Daughter and Son In Law "Dad paid me a visit at The President's Room today. I don't want Mom, or Dad anywhere near my family." Blake assures his Mother In Law "My Grandma, or Matt has no trouble putting someone in the grave, and I can still shoot." Sarah asks her Mother "When will the deal be finalized on the bar?" Tilly sighs "I'm meeting with Lorenzo tonight when I return to Aunt Elizabeth's." Sarah sighs "I am stunned she'd kick Aunt Felicia out of The Manor." Tilly goes, as she hands her Grandson to Sarah "There's one person to thank for this, and that's my Mom." Back at The Gallery, Scarlet tells Barbara "Call her again!" Barbara tells her "Lacey's not answering the phone." Off the highway sits Lacey's SUV, as Lacey's crawled out, as she sees her Great-Uncle's Mustang, and gasps "Oh my god, Uncle William!" Lacey runs over to the car, as William's unresponsive, and the ambulance and fire department arrives, as Lacey tells them urgently "I'm fine! My Uncle's not waking up!" The paramedics get William out of the car, onto the stretcher, as Lacey's heart drops, as she says to herself "They'll all be gunning for me.", as The Paramedics takes William to Loma Vista Downtown Hospital, as William wakes, and looks around, and goes "What happened?" The paramedic tells him "You were in an accident." William is dazed, as he says "Really?" Meanwhile, Lacey turns away help, and calls Tyrone, and tells him "Come get me. I need you."
     At Thomas Holdings, Lorenzo sits inside his office, as Sully has left, and Nikki walks inside, as Lorenzo hugs his Wife, and Nikki tells her Husband "I seen you and Sully discussing business. I didn't want to interrupt." Lorenzo tells her "It'd been perfectly fine. Sully is now Co-CEO of Thomas Holdings, so that means I have more free time on my hands, and I know where I want them." Lorenzo and Nikki stare into each other's eyes, as Nikki responds with content "You're a freak." Lorenzo asks his Wife "Want to clean off my desk, or go home to play?" Nikki asks her Husband "What about our Suite down at the Casino?" Lorenzo is quiet, and kisses Nikki, and responds "At least we'd have some privacy." Lorenzo and Nikki heads out, as they head to Sullivan's River Casino, as Lorenzo chases Nikki to the elevator, and they get on, as they kiss, and Nikki wraps her legs around Lorenzo's waist. Meanwhile, in Felicia's office, Felicia returns, as Sully sits inside, and Felicia asks "Who gave you permission to go through my things? Just because you are Co-CEO doesn't mean shit to me." Sully responds "It should. And do I smell liquor? I don't like that very much in the workplace." Felicia warns Sully "Working with you, I need all the booze I can take. Ann's a damn saint compared to you." Sully gets up, and turns to Felicia, and boldly warns her, as she pulls a razor from her pocket "I was taught well. I live for my Daughters, and I don't give two shits about you, or what Duncan's means to you, because if you are a hindrance, your ass will be packing up, and moving out. Now enjoy working while you still have a damn job." Sully walks out, as Felicia is silent, as anger grows in her eyes, as Sully stands in the hallway, and gets emotional for a moment, and says to herself "She will learn." Sully also heads to the elevators, as she heads home, as Felicia sits inside her office, and makes a phone call to Martin,which goes to voicemail, and Felicia sits back, and sighs "Some young bitch from Adam's Landing's not about to walk in here and pick a fight with me."
     At Sullivan's River Casino, Elizabeth and Lena sits inside Lena's office, as Lena tells Elizabeth "That's for when she comes back. I know how to bust a cap in a skank." Elizabeth laughs, and goes "So do I. She's been missing for awhile. I think Lizzie knows, and that's why she's acting strange." Lena answers "I think you're onto something." Elizabeth lights a joint, and adds "I think something else is bothering Lizzie also. She's been reading her work too much." Lena quips "She takes her job seriously. That's my girl." Elizabeth goes "She needs to find some fun in her life, and not get so wrapped up in the Hospital. She could always come down here and work with us." Lena asks Elizabeth "You really think she's gonna do that? This isn't her line of work. She's got more going for her, and her future's bright." Elizabeth responds with pride "She just reminds me so much of the two of us." At The Bluebird Manor, Lizzie's phone rings, as it sits on the coffee table in the living room, as Lizzie reaches for the phone and sighs "Shit." Lizzie answers "Yes?" Martin, at Loma Vista Downtown Hospital tells Lizzie "Should I call your Grandmother, or will you?" Lizzie warns him "I thought I told you I needed time to figure out how to break this to her." Martin yells "Not that Lizzie! There's been a wreck, William's in the ER, and he doesn't want anybody to..." Lizzie yells back "Call my Mamaw! I'll call my Daddy, and I'm on my way." Lizzie hangs up, as she gets emotional, as she calls her Father, as Lorenzo and Nikki arrives at Sullivan's River Casino, and as Lorenzo prepares to pay the cashier, Nikki tells her Husband, as her phone rings "It's Lizzie." Lorenzo asks "And what does she want?" Nikki takes a deep breath, and looks at Lorenzo, and goes "There's been a wreck, and Dad's at the Hospital." Lorenzo and Nikki rushes out. In Lena's office, Elizabeth's phone rings, as she goes "Now Martin I made it clear that my deal was...what did you say? I'm on my way there. Don't tell him." Elizabeth hangs up, as Lena asks "What's wrong?" Elizabeth rushes out, and with panic in her voice repeats "No. No No No."
    Meanwhile at Ann's Mansion, Ann walks inside, as her Granddaughter, Cassie Douglas yells "Nanny!" Ann gasps "Cassie?" Cassie and her Grandmother hug, as Cassie asks her "I take it Mom didn't tell you?" Ann goes "That she and Phillip ran off? I already heard about that business trip." Cassie sighs "Well Nanny, she and Phillip eloped." Ann shakes her head, and turns to Cassie, and asks her bluntly "And do you support your Mama marrying the man who knocked up Madam Scar?" Cassie goes "Nanny. Now this is exactly why Mom didn't say anything to you. She knows how you feel about almost everybody that you don't like. How's Grandpa?" Ann snarls "He's a son of a bitch. That's what he is. He and the whore's been trying to steal Thomas Auto from your Uncle William, and try to go after Thomas Holdings, and then to top that, both of them's supporting the low life piece of shit Zach." Cassie goes "So I take it you'd be pissed if I wanted to go see him?" Ann smiles "Honey, I hope Randi would let you stay with them if you do. I have no use for them. You should know by now that Nanny..." Cassie rolls her eyes, and tells her Grandmother "You're still fiery, but at least you seem to have moved on well." Ann gets her phone, as she texts J.R., and beams "I'm going to cook dinner tonight, and invite your Uncle J.R. over. He needs to find him a woman, and I'm playing matchmaker for him." Cassie asks "Matchmaker?" Ann quips "Yes. I know this young lady who'd be perfect for him, Sully Jackson." Cassie responds "You disapprove of Mom and Phillip, yet trying to hook up Uncle J.R. and Sully Jackson? You never cease to shock me." Ann lights a cigarette, and changes subjects, and tells her Granddaughter "How about takeout?" Cassie sighs "I take it you're having a reunion since I'm in town." Ann hugs Cassie tightly, and tells her gently "I'm just so proud to see my Grandgirl again. And you are so beautiful, and I want to show you off." Ann walks into the kitchen, as she makes some calls, as Cassie shakes her head, and smiles with content, as she goes "Nanny's still unpredictable." In the kitchen, Ann calls Barbara, and tells her Sister "I'm having a family dinner tonight! Cassie's in town!" Barbara, in her car, as she drives to Loma Vista Downtown Hospital, tells her Sister "J.R.'s on his way over." Ann goes "You sound down. Did Scar upset you?" Barbara responds "William had a wreck, and Lacey was driving the other vehicle." Ann hangs up the phone, and screams, as Cassie runs inside, as Ann tells her "William's been in a wreck, and Lacey's about to hear it from me!" Ann rushes out, as Cassie follows, as J.R. arrives, and hugs his Niece, and tells them "I'll drive the two of you down to the Hospital. No need in two wrecks today." Ann's eyes grow red, as she vows "If this was deliberate, I'll kill that whore!"
    At Loma Vista Downtown Hospital, Lacey and Tyrone sits in the waiting area together, as Lacey tells Tyrone "I don't know if it would be wise for you to be here when everyone starts to show up." Tyrone, in a smug tone, tells Lacey "I ain't scared of your family. You may need me, because like I said when I picked you up, they'll be aiming for you." Lacey puts her head on Tyrone's shoulder, as he holds her in his arms, as she goes "Of all people, I'd never want to hurt Uncle William." Inside the ER, William sits up in the bed, as Martin, and two nurses checks him out, as William asks "When the hell are you gonna let me out of here?" Martin responds "You were knocked out when the paramedics found you, and seeing this chart, you shouldn't have been driving." William defiantly tells Martin "And you can kiss my damn ass!" Meanwhile at Barbara's Home, Matt arrives, as Blake's downstairs, and asks his Cousin "Where's Lacey?" Matt looks at Blake, and tells him "She was in an accident. Uncle William lost control and ran into her SUV." Sarah walks out of the kitchen, as she screams "Oh my God! Is he ok?" Matt tells them "I don't know. Mama's on her way down to the Hospital. I'll find out more when she arrives." Sarah pulls out her phone, as she calls her Mother, as Tilly has arrived at The Bluebird Manor, and gasps with disbelief, as Sarah tells her Mother. Tilly hangs up, and looks at the contacts in her phone, as she sees her Mother's number, and considers calling, but changes her mind.
    Meanwhile at Randi's Mansion, Randi and Jack are in the kitchen, as they are in robes, and Randi tells her Husband "I just called Riverside, and they didn't get Zach on the line, must be therapy." Jack kisses Randi, as he tells his Wife "He'll be ok. We should get caught up on where we left off." Randi goes "I love that idea." The front door opens, as Felicia storms inside, and yells at her Parents "Lorenzo knows I've been helping the two of you, and about Zach, and it may cost me my damn job!" Randi shrugs "Well Elizabeth wouldn't be dumb enough to allow that to happen. She likes you." Jack meanwhile tells his Daughter "We need to tell you something since you're the rational one." Felicia responds with dread "I don't like where this is going." Randi holds onto Jack, as Jack tells Felicia "Miranda and I have remarried. We're thinking of having a party soon and inviting the family." Felicia warns them "I doubt anyone would show up, and I can't help you anymore." Randi responds "Smart thinking. Now go see your Husband, and leave the two of us alone so we can catch up on where we left off." Felicia walks out, as Randi and Jack runs into her bedroom, as Felicia finds someone outside, and her eyes widen, as the person tells Felicia "With what I know, you may want to make room for your Mom at The Manor." Felicia snaps "Tell them yourself!" Felicia leaves, as the person looks at Felicia, and sighs "I have no trouble breaking the news to her myself."
    Back at Loma Vista Downtown Hospital, Elizabeth arrives, and Lorenzo and Nikki stops her, as Elizabeth tells her Son, and Daughter In Law "I pray he's ok. I hope he hasn't relapsed again." Lorenzo recalls the last time he met with his Father (A week earlier, at William's Home, William and Lorenzo sits on the back deck, as William tells his Son "There comes a time you need to enjoy yourself, and enjoy what you have in life Son." Lorenzo asks "Are you alright Dad? You look pale." William takes a deep breath, and goes "Fighting Jack Miller has worn me out, but we took care of his ass, the Thomas way without the gunfire." Lorenzo smiles, as William hugs his Son, and tells him "I'm proud of you Lorenzo.") Barbara meanwhile walks inside, as does Ann, J.R., and Cassie, as Elizabeth tells everyone "Well I guess word gets around fast." Nikki gets a text from Lizzie, as she's in her Grandfather's room, and warns "I just looked in the waiting area. Warn Mamaw." Nikki is silent, and tells everyone "Lizzie's here, and is taking care of Dad." Everyone walks into the waiting area, as Lacey and Tyrone sits together, as Elizabeth loses her temper, and screams "Bastard!" Tyrone sighs "I didn't have anything to do with it!" Lacey cries, as Elizabeth asks her Great-Niece, as Ann stands next to her Sister In Law "Are those tears from guilt? Did you try to kill my Husband you whore? Tell me!" Barbara rushes over, as Lacey cries "I couldn't stop." Elizabeth slaps Lacey in the face, as Lizzie walks out of the ER, and yells "Stop!" Barbara looks at Tyrone, and tells him "I think you should go home before you upset Elizabeth anymore than you already have." Lorenzo agrees, as does Nikki, as Tyrone walks out, and Barbara opens her arms to Lacey, as she reluctantly hugs her Grandmother, as Ann's comforted by her Son, and Granddaughter, and Elizabeth's comforted by her Son and Daughter In Law, as Martin walks into the waiting area, and tells everyone "William's alert, and was sober. But why would anyone allow a man on as much cancer medicine as William to drive?" Jaws drop throughout the waiting area, as Elizabeth asks Martin, with shock "Cancer medicine? What in the hell are you talking about?" Lizzie starts to cry, as Nikki comforts her Daughter, as Martin tells them "Enjoy the time you have left with him, he'll be lucky to make it much longer." Martin walks back into the ER, as Lorenzo, Barbara, and Lizzie follows, as Nikki asks her Mother In Law "Elizabeth?" Elizabeth's taken back, as Ann screams, and J.R. and Cassie attempts to comfort her, as Ann cries "No! Not William!" Elizabeth walks over to Lacey, and Nikki tells Elizabeth "Go see Dad." Lacey cries "I couldn't stop fast enough!" Elizabeth is silent, as she looks around, and in shock, goes "This has to be a nightmare. A damn nightmare."
