Maggie insists she is fine;
she just leaned over too far. She
doesn’t want to ruin Brady’s party. She
finds Teresa’s ring on the floor; secret’s out. Abby is certain she saw Ben – then she realizes she didn’t. Now she’s really scared; “it felt so real”
she said, “what’s happening?” Teresa
asks Victor if he isn’t going to welcome her to the family… she should know the
answer to that. Brady formally makes
the announcement and Teresa makes a somewhat sarcastic, then somewhat touching
speech and Maggie hugs her.
Abby tells
Chad that she really thinks she’s losing her mind – JJ calls for a doctor. Physically, Abby is fine. The doctor says she had a panic attack; he’s
giving her a low-dosage sedative to help through the night; he says it’s safe
for the baby (supposedly Abby is nursing).
She and Chad lay down on the couch.
She wakes up and sneaks out, why, I don’t know – she runs into Bed in
the garden, actually bumping into him… but he just stands there. She tells him she knows he’s not really
there and runs back into the house; snuggling up with Chad on the couch again,
she sees Ben standing outside the glass door again.
After the party, everyone goes home; Teresa and Brady cuddle up
on the floor in front of a fire and have a loving, intimate conversation (which
I still have trouble buying), Philip tells Belle he loves her and Victor tells
Maggie to go lay down while he makes her a cup of tea. When Maggie gets to the top step, she gets
dizzy again; she tumbles down the stairs, falling all the way to the floor,
she’s not moving. Victor goes to her;
she tells him she is having trouble breathing and she can’t feel her legs… he
is going to call for help. Deimos shows
up, as if on cue – not concerned about Maggie at all; tells Victor this
is his doing. Says the pills Maggie has
been taking are poison; he switched her medication – she is slowly dying… but
he has the antidote. He demands that
Victor sign over everything he owns; he signs a paper Deimos hands him and
Deimos injects Maggie with something.
Belle
and Philip have an honest conversation; she tells him she is not going to tell
him she loves him and she doesn’t think he really loves her – he tells her he
will take her anyway he can have her.
Victor has Maggie taken to the hospital where the doctor tells him the
poison has been neutralized; the bad news, however, is that Maggie has broken
her back. She is paralyzed.
