O.K. so we never get to see you but after long awaited antic­ ipation we are back. Lets jump right in and summarize the last three weeks of our favorite soap ... Peter got busted hard once again; but this time. his devious tactics won't help him get out of trouble. Well, unless you count his developing plan to kidnap Jen in order to convince her she still wants to be married to him. But Jen has filed for divorce and asked Jack to move out of the. house. f$he wants this time to herself to figure out where her incredibly bad judge of character came from ... hey, at least they were both good-looking! Well, there was one doctor's appointment and then there was another and another; and yes, now we have one more appointment for Kristen with one of Marlena's doctor friends. This time Marlena is Kristen's chauffeur and there is no way out for the conniving "mother­ to-be." Unless, of course, Stefano happened to come through with a pregnant body double. Give John and Marlena two points because they've finally figured out that something is a lit­ tle off with Kristen. They're so quick like that.

Ouch that's gotta hurt! In order to prevent getting arrested again, Carrie has moved into Marlena's penthouse. For all you math majors out there, the. distance between Carrie's apartment and Austin's (where Sami is living) is less than one hundred yards. Bo still hasn't given up on the idea that Franco is the attacker/murderer but Hope has finally had enough and claims that if it doesn't stop the wedding is off.
