OLTL—Friday–12/17—"Someone is setting me up."


After praying for Nora's safe return, Bo is relieved to see her stumble out of the woods.  They have an emotional reunion and she tries to explain to him what happened.  The only thing she doesn't remember is, where she was all night.

Clint comes by Inez's apartment to follow up on their agreement.  He reminds her of what she agreed to and tells her why she doesn't have any other choice at this point.  "Inez, nothing is free in this world; I learned that a long time ago, from my father.  So now, if you just follow through with this one last thing, your debt will be paid."

Inez wants to know what will happen if she doesn't keep the secret—that she and Bo did not really have sex.  Clint says he will tell the police that one of her sons was at the murder scene.

James tells Starr he needs to talk to the police, just as John McBain is arriving to talk to Rex.  John asks James to come down to the station to talk and Starr calls Tea.  Tea tells her she will be right there.

Todd admits to Blair and Tea that, "yes" the cuff link found in Eddie Ford's motel is his, but he wasn't anywhere near the crime scene and besides, Eddie was a low-life thug who wasn't worth killing.  After Tea leaves, Todd tells Blair he did threaten Eddie because he said some creepy things to Dani, but he didn't kill him.  All he did was hire Rex to dig up anything he could find to use against Eddie Ford.

Blair wants to know how Todd's cuff link wound up at the motel.  Todd says, "All I know is, I wasn't there.  Someone is setting me up."  "Why? Who would want to see you go down for murder?"  "You want a list?"  "Good point."

John questions James.  James tells John he went to the MinuteMan Motel to kill Eddie but he didn't.  He threaten his father with the gun, but he only shot at the wall and not at Eddie.  John wants to know what happened next.  James says, "Then I left, and that's the last time I saw him."  John said there was no gun at the scene, so, what happened to it?"  Starr interjects: "Isn't it obvious?  Her theory is that someone else came to the room, picked up the gun and shot Eddie; then they took the gun with them.  When Tea returns home, she tells Todd she is pretty sure James is telling the truth.

All of Nate's friends rally around him when they find out about his father. But he says that Eddie was not his father; it was just a matter of bad luck and bad genes.  Matthew walks over to Nate and says, "Sorry about your bad news."  Nate lays into Matthew about what he said about his mother and then Matthew tells Nate it's true.  He knows that his father is sleeping with Nate's mother.  Nate is stunned, but then remembers he DID see Bo with his mother at their apartment in the morning.

Nora tells Bo about what Eddie said and did while he was holding her hostage.  She said she wants to make sure Bo knows what Eddie did so they will be sure to lock him up.  Bo finally tells Nora that Eddie is dead.  She looks at him in disbelief.

Natalie and Rex talk about why she is keeping her engagement a secret and she says because of Marty.  She is afraid the engagement might push her right over the edge.

John sits down at his desk and makes a list of suspects:

Todd Manning
Robert Ford
Inez Salinger
Nate Salinger
James Ford

But he crosses James off the list.

Clint wants to know why Inez is so sure her one of her sons did not kill Eddie and we see a flashback of Inez looking at Bo's gun and holster on the arm of couch.  (As though possibly she might have taken the gun and then returned it.)  When Nate gets home, he finds Clint there.  When Clint leaves, Inez starts to tell Nate about Eddie, but he says he already knows.  He wants to know if it is true that she slept with Commissioner Buchanan.

Bo and Nora continue their conversation about Eddie sending the text messages, etc., by Nora says he was definitely not the brains behind the scheme.  She thinks it has to be Inez since there isn't anyone else who would want to break them up.  Bo says he needs to tell her something.

Dun, dun, da....
