OLTL—Wed–9/8—You're the Only One I Trust


Yesterday, Greg rushed out of the diner after learning of Eli's death.  He shows up at Todd's door where Todd is waiting for him to deliver Téa's ashes, but he doesn't have the ashes and Todd wants to know why.  Greg says he has something he needs to tell Todd.  When it actually appears that Greg might be ready to spill the real story, he receives a strange text message from an unknown caller that says:  "Don't say another word."

He then back tracks and covers what he started to say, and just says that the ashes are being sent.  He and Todd get into an argument about how Téa's final hours were handled and Todd shows Greg the door.

Todd is so distraught about Téa he goes to Marty for advice.  He asks her how she coped after losing Patrick.  Marty tells him it can take a very long time before the pain stops, and he has to focus on Dani now.  Todd says he already knows that.  She suggests he talk to one of her colleagues, but he says he hates shrinks, and then leaves.  After he goes home, a box is delivered from St. Kitt's from a funeral home.  Todd opens the box, takes out the urn and reminisces about Téa, then holds the urn in his arms and just hugs it. It's very sad.

Natalie and John are at his apartment getting ready for their OB appointment.  He knows something has been bothering her and tries to get her to tell him what it is, but she keeps making up excuses for why she is not acting happy.  When it seems that she is just about to tell John about Brody; Marty drops by to find out about Eli and why he would push her down the stairs.  John tells her it was because of him.  Eli knew John had gone to California to investigate the death of Melinda Cramer.  He also knew that if anything happened to Marty, John would drop everything and come back to Llanview.  Although he wasn't planning to actually harm her or the baby, he needed to distract John.

On campus, the teens are starting their first day of classes. Ford decides at the last minute to withdraw from teaching Langston's class so he can date her without breaking the university rules. Langston is beyond belief. She vows not to give in to his pursuit of her. James tries to talk to Starr after she argues with Cole, but then Cole comes back and sees them talking. That looks like trouble for tomorrow's episode.

After Jessica tells Brody about Ford, he goes looking for him, like a heat-seeking missile. When he finds Ford on campus talking to Langston, he grabs his shoulder, turns him around and *KaPows* him one, in the jaw. He makes one of those cartoon faces and goes down.  Nice..... Police brutality.

Greg goes to Marty for "professional advice."  He says he needs to tell someone something and she is the only one he trusts.  Dun, dun, da.....
