Daylight And Darkness: Episode 351. New Starts

     It's been awhile since we last went to Adam's Landing, and Frank Jackson died and a detested past character made their return(s). Lots was firing up, and now we shall pick up six months later.


     At Beth and Tenny's Penthouse, Beth sits in the kitchen, as Tenny sits in the living room, and smokes a blunt as Ruthie walks inside with Gracie, and Beth asks Gracie "So you left Davey with Storm I take it?" Tenny asks "Have you allowed Xavier a chance to spend time with him and leave that low life?" Gracie yells "Damnit I love Storm and we belong together, screw this!" Gracie walks out, as Ruthie tells her Grandmothers "The two of you are fiery today." Beth snaps "Desi is plotting something, she's laying low. Then Dollar Time was bought by your Dad and his partners. Yeah, and my Son is plotting, and that's not a good thing with his feelings about Storm." Ruthie asks "How do the two of you feel about Gracie and Storm? She is doing everything right. I look out for her." Beth sighs "With Xavier, she's playing with fire." Tenny adds "And Storm slept with Samantha, who was revealed to been trying to poison you and is batshit sad to say." Ruthie tells them, getting a text "I have to leave for the office." Ruthie hugs her Grandmothers and leaves as Ruthie walks into the hall and Storm walks out of Ruthie's Penthouse, and tells Ruthie "Wanna walk to the car together? I've got to meet a friend about some work." Ruthie warns him "Look, Grandpa might be around, and you need to watch yourself." Storm whispers "Wanna..." Storm touches Ruthie's hand, as they kiss, and get on the elevator, as a passion has formed between them. In Ruthie's Penthouse meanwhile, Gracie hangs up the phone, and says to herself "Try me Logan and I will hurt you really bad."

    At Summer's office at Evans-Gore, Summer finishes up an article, and sends her Husband a text, as she says "See you at Cantina soon love." Summer sighs "Paul you romantic fool of mine." Russell and Lana walks inside, as Summer asks her Father "So what the hell are you doing here with that money hungry bitch?" Russell tells his Daughter with force "Lana and I will be married soon, so watch your mouth around your new Mother!" Summer yells "Bree is my Mom as far as I am concerned! And you need to watch your ass Lana! Xavier is gunning for you and the Landons. Even Jared!" Russell warns Summer "Xavier need not mess with me. It'd be the worst mistake he'll ever make. I do have friends. And people owe me a favor. Come on Lana." Russell and Lana walks out, as Bree bumps into them, and tells them "Daisy needs to back off of my Dad before she sees another side of me." Russell tells Bree "Your sperm donor's a piece of shit, and no need for the energy." Russell and Lana walk out, head out,  as Bree walks into Summer's office, and they hug, as Summer tells her Sister "My Dad is a damn idiot. I know he helped reduce Julia's sentence, and Paul suspects he and Monica are in cahoots." Bree asks "Wanna go to The Sunset Club and discuss this further? I personally never trusted her. Same for Javon at Jackson Inc. Goody goodies." Bree and Summer head out. 

     At Jackson Inc, Sully walks into the boardroom, to see her Mother, Cousin, Brother, Rachel, and Javon sitting at the table, as Leigh tells her Daughter "Xavier called this. He's making an announcement." Javon tells them "He's taking control again. And he's furious." Leigh warns all of them "X has a lot on him. Gracie and Storm has pushed him to his limits, and then Dollar Time going to Landon-Hale after Lana promised Sully we'd get it, this is bad." Sully sighs "He's been helping me learn Jim's and Foodstar, and been running that end." Rachel goes "The media department is in great shape, and Brock does a great job running it." Xavier walks inside, and tells everyone "As of today I am sending Sully to help her Daughter at Class, I am taking my office back, and Ava will be joining me to help me steer Jackson Inc in the right direction. Ava will help me evaluate everything as she is a guru at business like myself, and Sully." Sully gasps with shock, as she goes "Daddy, are you firing me?" Xavier quickly says "Just do it. I'll reveal more tonight at your place privately." Leigh asks her Husband "X, is Desi and Escobar up to something?" Xavier nods, and says "Diego called me and gave me a disturbing update. All you need to know." I need to run, but this is where we are." Xavier walks out, as everyone looks around, and Jack gets up, as Rachel follows him, and Brock watches, as Sully tells her Brother "Look, you need to move on and find someone else." Brock says to his Sister, as Leigh walks over and hugs her Son "She chose Jack." Leigh whispers "They go back. Now listen to Sully." Javon heads to his office, as he gets a text.

      At The Holiday Hotel, Logan Walsh and Callie lay in his bed in his suite, as Callie gets a phone call, and tells Logan "Welcome back to Adam's Landing. I missed you baby." Logan kisses Callie, and says "I missed you too. Now I want to know where my Dad is." Callie tells him "We'll find him. I have waited." Logan asks "So the engagement is on again?" Callie holds Logan in her arms tight, and kisses him on the lips and says "Forever for you." At Whispering Hills, Ava walks into the kitchen, and says "I merged HaleCorp with Jackson Inc, and left Logan the free room at the hotel like you wanted. Now when are you going to go outside and see the sky. See the trees. You are with me now, not your Wife, not..." Wade turns to Ava, and says "Ex-Wife. I divorced Bridget after what she did, and Connor came back and then when I was recovering I heard them chit-chatting about what happened." Ava tells him "Escobar Santiago was behind it, and she took advantage since nobody here liked her, or your Son." Wade asks "Is Logan.." Ava nods, and adds "He's been tracking you through someone. So you need to keep laying low right here until I can learn some more. I'm going to see what I can learn now." Ava walks out, as Wade looks at a photo, and says "I missed you Bree. I hope you return to me when everything is settled." Ava stands outside, and says to herself, having a thought "A possibility."

    Back at Ruthie's Penthouse, Gracie had laid Davey down to nap, as Gracie walks into the living room, and Tenny says to her Great-Granddaughter "Boo." Gracie reminds her "Gran, you cannot barge in like this just because Ruthie gave Gram that key." Tenny smiles "But you and I need to have a uh, chat sweet little girl. It's about Davey, and his Grandpa." Gracie warns "Do not." Tenny warns "You are hurting that baby in there not leaving that bastard and seeing Xavier is right. I will not stop! I am almost a century old dear, I have seen everything. Storm makes Frank Jackson look like a semi-virgin dog in heat. I'd rather you... oh no never...." Gracie warns her Great-Grandmother "You should keep your damn opinions to yourself and focus on your mind. It's starting to wonder off into lala land." Tenny slaps Gracie, and yells "Screw you, and I don't like you and what you are doing. Beth is a great actress. Learned from the best, but I'm not acting! You Gracie Beth Jackson! You are an embarrassment to my family name and the Jackson name. Trash!" Tenny walks out, as Gracie throws a vase across the room after the door slams shut. Tenny returns to her Penthouse, and lights a blunt, and looks around and says to herself "Ahh Beth must of went to the hospital. I have quiet now."

     At The Sunset Club, Bree and Summer walk inside, as Addie and Aretha sits at the bar and welcomes them to a seat, as Summer asks Aretha "Shouldn't you be at the wedding?" Aretha tells them as she takes a drink "Baby boy and Gwen eloped. Mama went though. No stopping her. They will spend the honeymoon in Southpoint Beach, while Mama visits Davis Lane and helps Olivia and Allison out since Allison and Cale moved FJR down there and Sidney's driving for them now." Desi meanwhile walks by, and asks "Any news about me girls?" Aretha warns Desi "I know you are married to Escobar. I think everyone does. Have you and Rachel reconnected. I heard she has ghosted you. I mean you were dead." Desi laughs "Oh I have friends dear low life Aretha and the rest of you. I am Desi Lane and I am the best set ever to own what is mine again. Now excuse me, I have an appointment." Addie tells them "So Xavier almost married her?" Bree sighs "I was married to her Son." Aretha quips "And he was a piece of shit for real." Addie changes subjects and asks Bree "So you found a surrogate?" Bree tells them "I have, and Aunt Ava helped me. She's on her way with the girl who'll carry my baby." Summer smiles and says "Finally I'll be an Auntie." Addie gets a call, and tells them "Excuse me.", and walks out as Aretha tells Summer "I am proud of your work for The Exposer, and Evans-Gore Summer. You are doing wonderful." Summer gushes, as does Bree, as Summer says "It's hard and raising those boys of mine." Bree says "You are an awesome Mom sis." At Hell Hill, Cain, Jason, and Jake walk inside, as Xavier tells them "You are here for a challenge down the hill. Whoever wins, gets the job." Xavier takes his Grandson, and family to the Storm Shelter, where the walk in and see three pistols. Xavier tells them "When I start timing you, shoot those targets as fast as you can." Xavier counts down, as someone walks inside and Xavier turns and nods, and says "Go!" They start, as Xavier walks over and says "So you came back to help me since Country is preoccupied." Sayyid laughs "Not for long." Xavier yells "Stop." Xavier tells them "All of you won, but you'll answer to him." Sayyid looks at Cain, Jason, and Jake and says "And there'll be one more to come boys."

     At Jackson Inc, Sully sits in her office, as Brock sits inside with his Sister as Leigh has went to Class, and asks "Has Dad lost faith in us or does he know something bad?" Sully tells her Brother "Something is going on, and Daddy's been getting more involved thanks to Mom trying to distract him from Gracie, Storm, and Ty." Brock goes "Dad's really changed since he's getting older." Sully assures him "Daddy is a genius at business, and he and Aunt Ava can move mountains. Me with Mom and Ruthie, and Desi breathing, this is a smart move." In Jack's office, Jack is quiet, as the door opens, and Brock walks inside and says "Well Jack, I'm about to leave. Before I go though.." Brock punches his Cousin in the face, and snarls "Son of a bitch. You could not wait for me and Rachel to break up and you jumped." Jack says "Other way around." Brock says "Family doesn't screw family Jack. You ruined a great thing for me for yourself." Brock walks out, as Jack rolls his eyes, and wipes the blood from his lip. In Javon's office, Monica arrives and tells her Son "I want to have a date with my favorite child." Javon tells his Mother "Let's do that Mom." Downstairs at Jackson Media, Rachel sits in her office, as she hangs up the phone, and looks up. Someone looks at her, as Rachel goes "Henry? What to do need?' Henry asks "Rachel, I know." Rachel asks "Know?" Henry tells her "I know I am your Son. I found out over Eve and River arguing over it, and I turned my back, and joined up with Grandfather. He helped me find myself, and now I am Henry Ross and well, Mom I am here." Rachel's eyes fill with tears of joy, as she hugs her Son for the first time tightly and strokes his head, with hers on his shoulder, crying "My baby, my little boy.."

      At Class, Ruthie walks inside, as her assistant goes "Marco is in Italy right now with his Sister's death, and she wlll not..." Ruthie walks inside as Desi walks around, and says "So you dated my Grandson, and now you are playing store with Lane's. Sully was a bad Mother." Storm walks inside, as he warns Desi "I know you married Escobar, but you will not speak to Ruthie like that unless I tell her to kick your ass because I don't hit women." Desi yells "You killed your Mother setting the house on fire! I followed that, and I know where your Daddy's hiding." Storm nods "So do I bitch!" Ruthie yells "Shut the hell up both of you! Shit! Too damn much!" having panic, and says to Desi "Well you have wore out your unwelcome so security, or Storm throw your old ass out praying not to break a hip?" Desi walks to the door, and warns Ruthie "This is still the beginning little bitch, but closer to game time." Desi struts out. as Ruthie fumes. Meanwhile at The Falcon Diner, Beth meets up with Alyssa, as Beth asks her "How are you? Thank you for meeting me for a meal. Mama didn't want to come." Alyssa looks at Beth, and says "I miss my Daddy. I am trying. I've tried to work for Ruthie, because Daddy's shop is just as he left it. Cale and I figured it was best. Then Cale and Allison sold their place. Uncle Floyd returned to Maria's place and left town.." Beth asks in a gentle nurturing tone "Alyssa do you want to come stay with me and Mama. Frank left that place to you, and he was loved. A park and museum of his car collection could be a money maker." Alyssa goes "Something to consider." Beth changes subjects, and goes "Anymore run-ins with your piece of shit Ex?" Alyssa goes "He visited me at FJR, crying over that photo that cost him his new ride with Thorpe Landon." Beth goes "Landons and Bonners in Adam's Landing, and Desi too, we are cursed." Alyssa asks Beth "Did Connor move out next to you?" Beth answers "He went back to Sugar Creek, so there you go." Alyssa and Beth hug, and Beth says "All fixed sweet girl.

     At Jared's Loft, Jared finds his door open, as Xavier walks out of the bedroom, and holds a bottle of liquor and says "High dollar shine as we call it though it's that fancy stuff. It is good." Xavier takes a drink, and says "Jared, I want to see you before Clint, a loser, and Thorpe, one I pity. We have history." Jared asks "How did you get inside?" Xavier goes "Cain. He's staying with Sully, but also me and Leigh. He's in training today." Jared yells "Screw you son of a bitch!! You will not train my Son into the next Sayyid or Country, does he have..." Xavier growls angrily and forcefully "Jared, you were never a part of you kids lives. Connor went back to Sugar Creek, and Jason, you and Summer's Son, he wants to join. I'm training them. I'm really Cain's Daddy since you were to busy having flings while married to my Daughter. Ruthie and Cain saved your ass." Jared asks "So did you think the day would come you'd have a challenge." Xavier goes "Huh? Landon-Hale isn't shit." Jared says "Save-Way, number two grocer in the country." Xavier tells him "Well thanks for the heads up. Back to our talk. Summer has surprised me. You too. Saving my Princess. But just know one thing Jared, I taught you this business, so wherever you are, Landon-Hale, or selling watches on the street, it was me." Xavier walks out, as Jared calls Ruthie, and Cain, to no answer, and calls Connor, to no answer.

      At Jackson Inc, Sully, Jack, and Leigh are inside Sully's new office as Bree joins them. Sully tells them in a serious tone "Shit's about to go down. Daddy's on the warpath since he learned Jared got Dollar Time. Daddy's source said Jared and Clint's eyeing our biggest rival in groceries, Save-Way." Leigh goes "Xavier will declare war and this could get dirty. Sully, might want to tell Ruthie and Cain to make peace with Jared before its too late. X does not play around with this, and he's already on the warpath." At Whispering Hills, Logan arrives, and embraces his Father with a hug, and says "Dad I am so glad you did not kill yourself." Wade asks "Where did you get that thought" Logan goes "Word on the streets of Sugar Creek. Now let's talk about this woman you're staying with who has not let me have my money from my trust." Ava walks in and warns Logan "Wade is happy. Now do you want him to know?" Wade asks "What do I need to know? When Ava and I merged HaleCorp and Jackson Inc, you got the money from it, a lot and I mean a lot. Soo." Ava says "Your Son is a brat, a spoiled brat that parties and remember Davey?" Logan is silent, as is Wade, thinking of his Grandson. At Ruthie's Penthouse, Storm returns, and Gracie greets him with a passionate kiss, as they begin to have sex on the couch. Meanwhile at Jackson Media, Javon and Monica are inside his office, as Monice hands her Son a piece of paper, her hand shaking, fighting emotions. In Rachel's Office, Rachel sits, and smiles and she says "All's well now." Jack walks inside, and asks "Want a better day sexy?" Rachel and Jack have sex in her office, as Brock walks past and hears them, with anger in his eyes.
