MIKE AND CARRIE

Carrie is worried, and Dr Mike comes to console her.  If only she had Ausdumb! she wails, as Dr Mike ignores his sinking heart and perks her up with the news that soon, Ausdumb will get his annulment and this will all seem like a dim dark memory.

 

 

MARLENA AND JOHN

Marlena asks John if he heard what she just said to Roman. He nods, and she sighs.  I'm so sorry if that hurt you, she smiles. But part of me will always love Roman. That however doesn't have anything to do with how I feel for you, and how I want us to be together forever.

KRISTEN REPORTS IN

Kristen is thrilled.  Did you see that John was listening when Marlena told Roman she loved him? she squeals.  This is going better than I could have hoped! Keep your head about you, warns Stefano.  This is going to take a while to play out. You'll need to keep on your toes.  But yes indeed, it is a very good start.

INTERRUPTION

Ausdumb looks jealously between Carrie and Dr Mike as they talk. Could I have a word with Carrie please? he asks, as Mike sidles away.  Ausdumb barely utters a word, when Carrie is called.  Roman is ready to see her.

Hey punkin' Roman smiles.

MIKE'S NEWS

Dr Mike has some news from the hospital.  Seems more tests are needed.  Roman is indeed one very sick man suffering from an unknown and terminal bacterial infection.  Being a synthetic germ there's no known cure for it, so it's a matter of trying new things, while they continue to do more tests.  As things stand, Roman indeed is going to die.

John and Marlena decide to go to the hospital to meet with the world's top specialists in synthetic germs, while Dr Mike stays near to comfort Carrie.

SAMI & HER PLAN

Scami has a plan, and it begins as she takes Will to see Roman.  This is your grandfather Will, she smiles, and this dad is my son Will.  I'm wonderfully, deliriously happy now, married to Ausdumb Reed, and we're just the happiest family on the face of the earth.

 

Ausdumb Reed? asks Roman suddenly with brain in gear.  Wasn't that Carrie's boyfriend? Yes agrees Scami, but it didn't work out and Ausdumb married me and we've had a son together.

Scami's face turns sour, as Roman pauses.  I'm worried for Carrie, he coughs.  She was so in love with Ausdumb.

Well, enthuses Scami, she's a lot happier now dad.  She's in love with Dr Mike Horton. They're wonderfully happy - don't worry for her dad. Mmm, Roman ponders.  Still it must have been hard on her, I'm worried for her.

LISTENING

Kristen and Stefano are watching Scami's plan in action on the monitor.  Ah Scami, chortles Stefano wiping his eyes.  What an actress you are!  And what an inspired plan! To tell her dying father that Carrie and Mike Horton are in love!  That Carrie is like all of those self-serving Brady's.  She won't deny it because she'll try and prevent the hurt and turmoil it will cause her father!  Excellent!

Pointing at Kristen, Stefano eyes her distastefully.  If you had been half as good an actress as Scami, he tells her, you would have John now and I would have been on my island with the lovely Marlena!

Well I think it's terrible! Kristen says.  I'm going to tell John right now what Scami is up to.  How dare she manipulate Ausdumb, Carrie and her father this way!

Are you forgetting all you did to keep John, asks Stefano amazed. Well there was a difference! justifies Kristen.  After all, John does love me, Ausdumb has never loved Scami!

AT THE HOSPITAL

The files have come through from the Caribbean ISA hospital.  Rifling though the information, Marlena seems shocked to see what she's already heard three times now.  Roman is dying.

 

 

THE PAPERS

The doorbell rings - it's Never-win Mickey's lackey.  These are your annulment papers, he smiles as Ausdumb does the dance of joy.

As Lucas watches perturbed, Ausdumb jumps up and down.  These are my annulment papers little brother! he yelps.  Now Carrie and I can finally be together.  I must find her - where is she?

COMFORT

She's outside howling now she realises that Roman is dying.  We must keep this from Scami she tells Dr Mike.  Who knows what the trauma will do to her.  As she weeps on Dr Mike's shoulder, Ausdumb trots outside, only to stop and stare.  Not another moment where Carrie is in Mike's arms?
