OLTL—Wed–11/24—"Don't make me regret coming back from the dead."


Nigel's cousin, Neville is preparing an American Thanksgiving for Kevin and Kelly.  He tells them Joey is on his way home.

Dorian drops in on Viki to tell her "we won!"  Viki wants to know what they won and Dorian tells her Roxy booted Echo out of the hotel, so now, they are rid of her.  Just then Echo comes out of the kitchen wearing a luxurious bathroom with a "B" monogram and gushes "that turkey smells divine."  Dorian is speechless when she finds out Echo has moved in.  Viki confides in Dorian that she can't even imagine how angry she is.  Dorian says, let me guess... she shows up on your doorstep and Charlie begs you to let her move in... "I'm homeless, help me, help me.  Viki rolls her eyes to confirm that was pretty much how it went.  With a common enemy to de-throne, these two are going to make an awesome team and the fans should be treated to an excellent storyline.

Rex, Gigi and Shane arrive for dinner and to meet the new grandparents, just as Dorian is leaving.  Shane is excited his grandparents are going to be living right next door to them.  Viki announces that Echo is only going to be staying at Llanfair for a couple of days.

This decision later leads to a tense discussion between Charlie and Viki about Echo's financial condition and that her credit card had been declined at lunch.  Viki says she is sorry about that, but how is that their problem "sweetheart," she adds.  Charlie is like all, gee whiz, and it's not like they don't have enough room at Llanfair.  Viki, being the Leo that she is, roars back calmly, "Are you actually suggesting she move in with us?"

Langston invites Ford to La Boulaíe for Thanksgiving dinner and he asks to bring James.  Starr doesn't know anything about these arrangements until she receives a message from James asking if he can bring anything for dinner.

Christian brings thank you gifts for Blair—champagne and flowers.  He is feeling lonely with Layla out of town and his mother visiting Antonio and Jamie for the holiday.  He also brings the mysterious box from Eli that Blair thought he threw away, but Chris thinks she should open it. Blair and Christian are still good friends, and of course, he does manage her night club; but she tells him she is glad he has joined them for Thanksgiving.  Later, when Chris offers to get rid of Eli's box, she says "no" and that she will eventually open it. [Looking forward to that surprise!]

Clint invites Inez and Nate over for dinner without telling Bo, Nora and
Matthew, who arrive thinking this was going to be dinner "with just family."  Nora and Matthew are not happy about their dinner companions.  Nigel has set up an interactive video game in the living room where Nate is trying it out.  Matthew goes into the living room and antagonizes Nate by saying his mother is "playing" his uncle.  When Nate says, "She's not playing anyone."  Matthew says, "Yeah right, could that dress get any tighter?"  Nate grabs Matthew by the lapels and they start a small scuffle when everyone rushes into the living room to break things up.  Nate reminds his mother he turned down an invitation from Dani to be with her, but now he has changed his mind.  He excuses himself and leaves.

Eddie Ford is making life miserable for the Ford boys, insisting they take him out for dinner "with all the trimmings."  Taking him to Dorian's is the LAST thing on their minds.  They tell him he is NOT invited and leave without him; but, he follows them.

Eddie shows up at the backdoor of La Boulaíe saying he had been invited.  Dorian escorts him into the foyer where the Ford boys have just arrived.  Unfortunately, an ugly scene ensues, Eddie punches James, and Dorian has to call Bo, who rushes over.  Dorian calls Eddie a vulgarian who is virtually trespassing since no one invited him and then he brutally attacked "that young man," pointing at James.  Bo is happy to cart Eddie off to jail.

Since Bo left Clint's to help Mayor Lord, Nora and Clint are left to fend for themselves so Clint brings up the subject of Bo and Inez.  He continues to put ideas in her head about a possible attraction between the two of them, and even Nora is starting to doubt herself.

Through her "friends" at the courthouse, Téa gets a copy of the restraining order Todd filed against Marty and that he had Starr sign, thinking they were papers regarding Hope's trust fund.  Téa is so upset with Todd she compares him to Eli, when Eli tricked her into signing
custody papers that gave Dani to Ross.  She is incredulous when she gets Todd to confirm, yes, he tricked Starr into signing something that would keep Hope's grandmother from her only grandchild.

Nate arrives at Dani's just as Todd is nagging Téa about that jerk, Nate.  Then he has to apologize to everyone when Tea tells him, "Don't make me regret coming back from the dead."  She eventually gets everyone to join hands and join her in her gratitude for being able to celebrate another Thanksgiving and also for being able to argue with her husband again.

I couldn't figure out where John McBain was going until today, we found out he went to see Michael and Marci and their son Gabriel in Seattle.

Neville announces dinner, but Kelly doesn't understand why they aren't waiting for Joey.  Neville apologies for the misunderstanding.  Joey is on his way "home" to Llanview.  Joey arrives at Llanfair and Viki is more than thrilled!!

After dinner, Clint has an opportunity to talk with Inez alone.  He wants to know the real reason why Inez would not accept the gift necklace from him.  She says the necklace makes her feel like he wants to take the relationship to the next level, but she just isn't ready to sleep with him.  Clint tells her, "I don't want you to sleep with me.  I want you to sleep with my brother." [!!!!]

Dun, dun, da....
