OLTL—8/20—"There's Been a Change of Plans."



Dorian rushes into the library/study of Llanfair, just as Viki is coming in from the garden.  At first Viki thinks that possibly Dorian has lost her mind, but no, Dorian tells her she is just deliriously happy and in love with David, and that they are planning the wedding of the century for this afternoon.  She invites Viki and Charlie to the wedding.

David mingles around the country club for awhile and invites basically everyone he sees to the wedding.

After Inez calls Elijah Clarke to hire him to help her son, she puts Robert on the phone to talk to Eli.  Ford almost has a real heart attack.  Eli threatens him again and then hangs up.  Robert and Inez have a screaming fight and she leaves.  She goes directly to Bo and asks why her son is chained to a desk.  Bo explains it is standard procedure and as soon as he gives his statement, he will be released.

Meanwhile, Eli and Kelly have an unexpected encounter at La Boulaie and they take their "discussion" to the living room.  Eli suggests that Kelly seems to be having mental health issues and that he knows her family would spare no expense in having her institutionalized so she could get the help she needs. She just laughs at him, but continues to badger him with her theories.  Eli says that if any of her accusations had any substance, John McBain would already have arrested him.  Just then, McBain walks in with his assistant.  At the same time, McBain gets a call from Bo saying that Eli knows they have Ford, so to back off.

Kelly and Eli both think that Eli is about to be arrested, but in order to avoid suspicion, McBain is forced to arrest Kelly instead.  He tells Eli that Kelly broke into his hotel room because she is convinced that he killed her mother and she just couldn't leave it alone; even though they checked it out and were told by the Medical Examiner that Melinda died of a heart attack.  Eli says that Blair told him Kelly had been acting irrational lately, but he had no idea.  He adds, "It's sad, really."

Nora goes to talk to Ford and he recants the statement he gave to McBain and says he lied about everything.  Nora goes to Bo and tells him that obviously he had been threatened by Elijah Clarke and wants to know how in the world Clarke found out they were holding Ford.  Inez says it is her fault and explains what happened.  Norma goes berserk just as McBain walks in and figures out what must have happened.

They desperately try to figure out a Plan B and Nora goes off to try to get a judge to issue a warrant before it is too late.

Eli enters the cabana where Blair is dressing for the wedding.



Blair:  "Eli, what are you doing?
You know it's bad luck to see the bride
before the wedding.


Eli:  "There's been a change of plans."
