Sharon’s seen how sincere Sienna is and knowing what Matt’s capable of wouldn’t minimize the danger she’s in. Adam trusts Noah’s instincts and is sorry he ‘came on strong’. Noah’s sorry too (for lashing out at people who are trying to help)
Meeting Matt at the park overlook, Nick again threatens to throw him over the railing. Do we have a deal or not?!
Wow – divorce, a surprised/guilty Daniel hopes he’s not to blame and expect to have feelings beyond friendship. Tessa doesn’t see anything to fight for with Mariah (as Daniel had with Heather) Mariah’s moved on and you’ve given me the courage to move on too.
It’s time, Ian hands the photo to Mariah. Shrieking and sobbing, she rips it up – I know what I have to do but I’m afraid. Ian’s sure her faith will light the way; you’ll be whole again. What if I don’t deserve to be whole? Mariah whimpers.
Sharon’s alarmed when Victor comes to say that Nick went to meet Matt – alone. Your Dad and I have made plans, he reassures her and Noah, as Adam watches on.
A million doesn’t buy much in this economy, and you hit me, Matt now demands 5 million for Noah’s ‘boo’ and will text him his bank account numbers. It’s your lucky day, he says when ‘Rich Boy’ asks for ‘proof of life’.
Satisfied? Matt asks after playing the 2 second video of Sienna. If Nick doesn’t transfer him 5 million within the hour, he’ll get a video he won’t like – at all.
It’s all coming together, Victor reassures an antsy Noah. Once the issue of Matt Clark’s handled, he has a proposition to make. Getting a call from Nick, Victor announces that Matt’s ‘on the move’.
Of course you deserve to be whole, and you will be, Ian quotes scripture as he encourages the strongest ‘disciple’ he’s ever had. You’ll be able to fulfil your destiny and do what needs to be done, he assures a distraught Mariah.
Listing reasons why Tessa’s ‘brave’, Daniel will be there for her unless she doesn’t want him to be. Tessa wouldn’t want him to put her needs above his own (and push her away) like Mariah’s done.
When Matt returns to the motel room convinced that Nick will transfer the money within the hour, Annie concludes ‘so, the lovers get to live’. What gives you that idea? Matt scoffs.
The last thing Daniel wants to do is push Tessa away – tell me what you want and you’ve got it. Tessa wants ‘this’ (and goes on to make a list that includes ‘trust’ and not being alone) ~kiss~
You know deep down that the time is now, that’s why you pushed Tessa and Aria away, Ian finally manages to brainwash Mariah that he’s right. The path is clear, she now believes that nothing will go wrong.
Nick returns to Sharon’s to update that Matt showed him a video – Sienna’s alive but has clearly been drugged. He wants 5 million transferred immediately. Victor assures Noah that they’ll bring Sienna home to him.
Wanting ‘justice’, Matt won’t let his cheating, whore-wife and Noah live happily together – they’ll be buried together! he vows to Annie.
Next Week: Noah’s puzzled – you said Matt would spot a tail a mile away. That’s why we came up with a better plan, Nick reassures … What’s this bargaining chip and how did you get it? Diane asks. Kyle explains that a man from Nick and Sharon’s past has shown back up to harass them. What does this have to do with Victor??? she wonders. Just wait until you hear, Kyle smiles smugly at her and Jack … Tussling in a parking lot, as she’s pulled from the back seat of a car, Sienna pushes Matt. Watch yourself! Annie barks as Sienna scratches Matt’s face. Grabbing her by the throat, he hisses – you drew first blood but I’ll draw last.
