Roger enters and notices Jet sitting with Ed, Eve, Fletch, Alex and others. Eve tells a stinker of a joke that gets a few laughs. Roger: The custody hearing starts tomorrow. Do you really think you have time for this foolishness? Jet looks annoyed. Enter Jenna. She tells Frank she is looking for Buzz. Frank gives her an unfriendly reception and quizzes her about the whereabouts of his father. Jenna denies knowing where Buzz is or about his "troubles". DIRTY DOTTY'S A knife wielding Pauly has Deenie in a headlock. Blake is trying to help. Pauly: I know you were recording me. Now where's the tape? Blake: I don't know what you're talking about Pauly. But Pauly, who knows a rat when he smells one, knows better. He angrily trashes the joint looking for a recording device. Deenie tells Blake to call the cops. "He's not going to hurt me." She says. This 'causes Pauly to freak some more. He accuses Deany of setting him up: Playing with him and making him look like a fool so he would propose to her. Trash-Man-Buzz, who has been hiding in a coffin like wardrobe, breaks out and rages toward Pauly. Slo-Mo shot as Buzz pounces on the grease ball. *OPENING* Trash-Man-Buzz wrestles P. for the knife. Blake goes for the tape recorder while Deenie dives for the phone. P. breaks free and cuts the phone line. "Get away from that, Baby!" He grabs the tape from B.. Nadine tries despartely to subdue P. by beating him with her purse. (nice try, Deenie!) but P. fends her off with a skillful lunge in her direction while yelling "Blawhhhh!" (ROTF! :) ) He destroys the tape. "So much for your evidence" He scoffs! Pauly: I'm not going to prison at all Buzz: I made the monster. I guess I'm going to have to put the stake through its heart. Pauly: Maybe! Fight scene (lots of grunting) Buzz gets stuck, but still manages to take P. Down THE ATTIC Van is reading Ross' court notes. She imagines Jet answering the questions Syd will be asking her. She learns that Jet blames no one for her situation and how she tried to make the best of her difficult situation. She pictures a preggers Jet in the lewis attic singing to her unborn child: "I've got a GUIDING LIGHT. I'm gonna let it shine..." (la, la) (Yes, if you missed Monday, you missed this total cheese-ball moment. I wonder how Melissa did it with a straight face) Lots of shots of Van in deep thought. One might even think she's copped a clue (think again!). It's as if she finally realizes that Jet is Peter's Mommy, and Jet went through alot to have this child. (speculation!) THE DINER Rog tries, unsuccessfully to schmooz David. D. asks him why the sudden interest in the guy he tried to lock up and throw away the key. Rog says he's interested in doing a follow up story: "young man overcome by adversity-makes good" David: Yeah, well, my Mothers a social butterfly and my Dad's a cardiac specialist. So, I think that's going to put a crimp in your "Bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks" angle. Roger 'fesses that he's just being nice 'cause of Jet. Enter Ed. Rog tries to pick up the tab for Ed's measily diner meal. Ed gets a chuckle, but refuses. Enter Alex, who has witnesses the course of events and can't resist jabbing Rog with a few. (haven't seen these two together in a long time) She points out that Rog is only on his best behavior when one of his kin is involved. Rog gives her a snarl and she is on her way. Rog makes his way to Leo who is giving Jet notes for the hearing. Frank asks Lucy to run the music for the fireworks. She accepts. Enter Jenna who asks the dynamic duo about Buzz' medal of honor. Frank goes through the war hero spiele. DIRTY DOTTY'S (who seems to have disappeared) Buzz has Pauly in a headlock. ( His Trash-Man make-up seems to has inhibited him from speaking clearly so exscuse me If I miss some) P tells Deenie that he stole the money for her, to give her groovy stuff, just like Buzz took his for Jenna. He asks how she can forgive Buzz and not him. Pauly (to buzz): Underneath the skin you and I are the same man." Buzz grunts some more. Pauly vows to take him down with him. This scares Nadine. She says they should let Pauly go and run. But Buzz refuses. "I know whose fault is really whose" he says. Enter cops. Both men are arrested. THE PARK Eleni is there to meet Jenna and AM. AM is a no-show but leaves a business plan for them to go over. They are not happy to be there together. Enter Rog, Leo and Bridget. Jet refuses to rehearse any longer. She notices Peter with the Lewis clan and gets a nasty look from Josh (anal man) Dylan notices her and bops on over. Neither want to talk about what they had been doing all afternoon. Jet gets a bit pissy and suggests that Dylan sit with his family. Dylan smoothes things when he insists that he's just where he wants to be. Jet looks guilty when Dylan notices Leo & Roger lurking nearby. ATTIC More Bridget images. She tells about missing Auntie M's funeral. Voice- O-Syd asks Voice-O-Jet why she went back to the attic. Jet says she did so because back in the attic she could be proud of her baby. Everywhere else she felt shame. COP STATION Pauly & Buzz are cuffed and led in. FBI man makes a lame apology to Ross (reporters jumping around) Ross announces that he will represent Buzz (blah-blah-blah) He promises to spring Buzz in the AM. Enter Syd. Thanks-blah-blah-we will be opposing eachother tomorrow- blah-blah-we are professional-blah-necking with blake for reporters-blah- Exit Ross & Blake for what I'm sure must be a very thrilling car-ride home. Buzz Freaks! "Hey that's my lawyer!" Buzz is led to his cell. Nadine goes too to tuck him in cozy. Buzz is ambivilant. He just wants his lawyer. THE PARK Josh's kids (who are terrible actors) diss Tangie. Enter Josh with around 15,000 red-white-and-blue "Rocket Pops" Tangie watches from a far.(the hedges really) Eleni & Jenna exchange insults. That's-mine-I-had-it-first-but- I-did-the-hard-part... Eleni tells Jenna she doesn't know how to run a business 'cause all she's ever done is stolen. Eleni leaves. Eleni gives check to Frank for use of the kichen. He accepts and asks E. if she's seen buzz. She hasn't a clue...Frank starts to look mushy. E. gets nervous and leaves. THE CELL Nadine: It's small. Buzz: Well, it's a starter cell, Nadine. Nadine starts to bawl. Buzz tells her not to blame herself. He tries to make her laugh by telling her that it isn't the worst place he's lived. "I lived in Pamona on Old Pump Road" Deenie gets a chuckle while I remain clueless.....(I think if Nadine went to a Bob Hope show she'd die laughing) Deenie swears to get him out. Buzz asks her to tell Frank & Goosey. Exit Deenie. Buz hears the music outside and realizes it's Memorial Day (or is it Labor Day? :)) THE DINER Deenie tells Jenna what about Buzz. Deenie decides to take Buzz' advice and decides to blame Jenna instead of herself. Jenna offers to help, but D. refuses. "Frank & I will take care of it" Jenna wonders (sarcastically) what Buzz ever saw in her when he was in such capable hands as his family's. Nadine says she doesn't know . She questions why B. would such a risk for J. Nadine: If it were the hope diamond or Ft. Knox, that I could understand. Jenna: Perhap it's not that difficult to figure out. Maybe there's something in me that shines just as bright, but you're not able to see it and neither am I. Perhaps Buzz did. Exit Jenna Close-up on Diner wall where Buzz' medal is mysteriously missing!!!!! CELL Buzz listens as they play "Taps" and The National Anthem in Roosevelt Park. Pan of the crowd where even Roger looks solemn. PARK Cutter & Tangie flirt (major romance potential!!) Blake breaks the good news about Ross to Rog. Roger is not happy. Enter Ross who breaks the news to Jet & the Lewises. Ross: Hey Leo, I'm taking my case back so you can sleep in in the morning, alright? You too Roger. THE ATTIC Phantom-Bridget tells Phantom-Syd why she remained with the Lewises after Pete was born. She tells of her need to protect the fragile newborn and keep him safe from harm. Jet: Before he was born I thought I could do that.(leave) But I knew that all I had was $40 and a car that wasn't mine, and that wasn't good enough for my son. Jet says she never truely consented to giving Peter away. She says that she always intended to get him back when she got her life back. "Cause that's what I gave up when I got pregnant. I gave up my life". Van leaves (never to be seen again....?) PARK Jet longs for Peter. Ellie-May and Jethro set off the fireworks. Nadine tells Eleni, who is watching Jethro from a distance, that she's going to have put her differences with her hubby on the wayside because Buzz is in the Slammer!!! THE CELL Buzz remembers the year before when Frank hated his guts. (music, fireworks) Fade-out
