OLTL—Tuesday-11/23—Clint is one happy man


Clint confirms with Vimal that he did the presto chango at the lab as requested.  He also double checks as to whether or not Vimal might have been distracted by the doctor who came into the lab and possibly made a mistake.

Vimal reassures Clint that everything went as planned and the father of his daughter's baby was changed to Brody Lovett.  Just as he says that, Brody shows up, and asks, "Did I hear my name?"  He came by to tell Clint the good news about the baby and Clint says, "You have made me a very happy man.  I consider you to be like a son; not like that Rex Balsom."

Viki goes over to Dorian's and updates her on the DNA tests.  Dorian isn't buying it, and pooh-poohs the excuses Viki gives for Clint's innocence.  Dorian tells Viki to expect Echo to work this new connection for all it's worth.  When or if the relationship with Rex doesn't work out, who do you think she'll turn to—Charlie.

Dorian says she is determined to get the truth out of Echo, one way or another.  Viki wants to know how she will accomplish that, and she says, she is going to become Echo's new best friend.  Viki doesn't want Dorian to get involved.  She wants Charlie to handle it. [Yeah, like that's going to happen!]

Roxy stops by John's apt. with some clean towels and they start to chat, then decide to have a beer.  Roxy is excited about the baby and John says, "Yeah, I guess it is really going to happen."  Roxy tries to get John to commit to putting a ring on Natalie's finger, but he says they are taking things slowly.  Roxy blabs a little more than she should, as usual, and starts talking about Marty keeping Natalie's letter from John and then that Nattie stopped by Brody's on the way to the airport, so that is why she missed her flight, so really he should thank Marty and Brody for getting back together with Natalie.

When Roxy mentioned the part about Brody, you could see John's detective mind click into active mode.  But Roxy also warns John to watch out for Marty, since keeping Natalie's letter got her nowhere and now she has nothing, there is no telling what her next dirty trick might be.

Matthew, Nora and Bo are having lunch at the Buenos Dias Cafe, when Matthew notices Vimal come in. He sees Matthew, ans takes a seat at the counter, trying to be inconspicuous.  Bo and Nora have just told Matthew about Charlie being Rex's new dad and Matthew asks how did they figured that out.  Bo says they used the DNA lab at Llanview Hospital.  Matthew says, "Really," then looks at Vimal.  Matthew goes over to talk to Vimal about the Llanview Hospital card key that he picked up from Vimal and delivered to Clint.  Vimal tells Matthew, "Oh, yeah, I forgot all about that."  He suggests it would be a good idea if Matthew did the same.

Matthew goes to Clint's office and feels him out about the DNA test.  Clint wants to know WHY Matthew wants to know.  Matthew says he is just curious about how accurate something like that is and if you could get the wrong results if the test got screwed up or something.  The look of panic/fear on Clint's face spoke volumes.

Matthew continues, his probe:  "So, Rex didn't turn out to be a Buchanan, so I guess you're a lucky guy."  Clint:  "Yeah, that's what you need to remember about me, that I'm a lucky guy."

Gigi stops by Llanfair to check on Natalie and can see she has been crying, which doesn't make any sense if the amnio test said John is the baby's father.  Natalie confesses that the test results say Brody is the father.  Gigi wants to know if there is any possibility John would accept the truth.  Natalie is not willing to take the chance.  After Gigi leaves, she burns the test results in the fireplace.

John calls Natalie to tell her he is packing for his trip and would like to see her one more time; so she heads over to his apartment.  He tells her about Roxy and that she warned him about Marty, saying, "Hell hath no fury..."

Marty knows the truth about Natalie's baby and has decided to tell John.  She fantasizes about how she is going to give the DNA results to John in a package wrapped up to look like it came from Tiffany's.  When she comes back to reality, she has just finished wrapping the Tiffany box.

Rex, Echo and Charlie come into the Buenos Dias for some lunch.  Echo tries to pay the bill with a credit card that is declined, so Charlie pays.  Then Roxy comes in, and Rex has to tell her the news.  She is VERY upset.  She goes up to Echo and demands her rent money.  Echo says she thought the promotional photos she took for her would cover it, but Roxy says, no. Echo says she doesn't have it, so Roxy tells her to pack her things and get out.

Brody comes into the living room and gets some wood to put on the fire and he pokes around a bit.  Maybe he sees something, maybe he doesn't, but it is a good cliff hanger.  We'll see.....

Echo ends up on Viki's doorstep saying she doesn't have anywhere else to go.

Dun, dun, da.....
