Although, Iris begins the evening with Russ, she rings in the New Year with someone from her past. Tito and Nick fight over Remy, upsetting the group. Vicky goes into labor and is rushed to the hospital. The teens have their own New Year's Eve celebration which gets out of hand.

Vicky has some problems but the twins are finally born. Now that I have your interest piqued, just go to our main page and click on Virtual Bay City so you can check out the episodes in detail. You will also find all the former episodes posted as well, so that if you are new to TAWA, you can start at the beginning and not feel as though you walked in during the middle of the show. After reading these latest episodes, I'm sure you'll have lots of questions. Will Felicia see what is transpiring between Alli and her husband? How will Rachel and Carl handle the drunken teens? What will life be like with Vicky and Jake and their new bundles of joy? What will happen with Remy and her relationships with Nick and Tito? Will the DuBois continue to have visits with Remy? Will Donna find her missing baby? What will happen with Iris now that she has learned that her mother Sylvie is still alive? For answers to these and many other questions, tune into the next episodes of Virtual Bay City which will be going up on April 1, 2000. Also next month, you will be seeing stories posted by two new writers for Virtual Bay City who just happen to be professional writers as well. Hope you enjoy the new episodes and keep coming back for more love, action, adventure, drama, comedy ..... you know, all the aspects that kept us hooked on our favorite soap, Another World. Spotlight on: Wallingford
Another World had it's own version of the three musketeers.
Wallingford was originally introduced on Another World as Cecile's informant. He was only to be on for four weeks, but the fans were so enraged that they might lose their beloved Wallingford, his contract was extended and he was on Another World until Wallingford died of a heart attack. (The writers did this because Wallingford's portrayer, Brent Collins had died on Jan. 6, 1988 and they wanted to give him a fitting and final farewell on the show for the cast and the fans to say good-bye to their beloved Wallingford.) There were many funny escapades that happened to our
three
That was Wallingford. He was always there for
Cass and Felicia to lean on. He was always getting involved with
them in some hair-brained scheme and was busy bailing them out of jams.
Wally always knew what people needed. He always wanted to help out.
Wally was a friend to everybody. He always went out on a limb for
his friends. He always gave all the love he had to everyone he met.
He always made people laugh. Wally could see the truth in everything.
He was charming and captivating. On an episode devoted to Wallingford
and his life, Cass and Felicia reminisced

Vicky and Jake are at the hospital. Vicky is in a hospital room while Jake and the boys are waiting in the waiting room. Jake is frantically pacing, the boys are sitting in two big black waiting room chairs that would probably be more comfortable if they had no backs. Kirkland: This is all my fault, she probably ate one of those cookies I made for her, and just passed out! Steve: Come on Kirk, they weren't that bad, well not as bad as mom's or anything. Kirkland: that's not the point Steven! What if we lose mom again, huh, what if she's gone for good this time Steve? I don't want mommy to die, Steve, I don't! Kirkland is holding back tears, he is so afraid, you can see that fear and pain in his eyes. Steve: Don't you think I'm afraid too Kirk, don't you think the only thing I want is to be at home with those brats, mom in the kitchen, attempting to make dinner? I’m JUST AS SCARED AS YOU! Jake hears there conversation and comes over to try and cheer up the boys. Jake: Hey guys come on, your moms strong, she's not going to bail o us all now. Right, before you know she'll be at home making you burnt cookies for your lunches!! Jake comes over and sits next to the boys. A tall man with blonde hair and hazel eyes walks over; he is wearing a white doctor's coat and a facial expression that says bad news all over it. He looks over at Jake. Doctor: Are you Mr. McKinnon? Jake: Yes, that's me, and you are? Doctor: I'm Dr. Brown, I'm sorry to tell you this, but your wife has suffered from a mild drug over dose. Jake: What did someone drug her? Dr. Brown: As far as we can tell they were weight loss pills. Jake: Weight loss pills, why would Vicky have weight loss pills. Dr. Brown: Lots of mothers are concerned about their weight after pregnancy. Maybe that's why she felt she needed them. Jake: You don't know my wife like I do. She's strong, and she loves her family and would never do anything she thought might hurt them. Dr. Brown: Maybe your wife wasn't thinking with a clear head Mr. McKinnon. Jake: STOP TALKING ABOUT MY WIFE THAT WAY!! She is no druggie; she is a beautiful, thin, amazing woman. Dr. Brown: The strongest of women can have these types of problems. Jake: CAN I SEE my wife please? Is she awake? Dr. Brown: Yes she is, and I must advise you Mr. McKinnon, if you don't want to be kicked out of the hospital you best keep your voice down. Dr. Brown walks away. The boys walk over to Jake, Kirkland is teary eyed. His head is slightly tilted and he is wearing an innocent face. Kirkland: Can we come with you to see mom Jake? Jake: I don't know guys, she uh, she is probably really tired, maybe later okay? Steve: Come on Jake, we're all mom needs. Kirkland: yeah, I'm sure as soon as she sees our faces she'll be good as knew! Jake: You make a valid point buddy, but not right now. Steve: But what Jake?? It'll make mom happy, it'll make us happy, and it'll make you happy! You will be happy, right Jake? Jake: Well sure, why, why wouldn't I be happy? Kirkland: I knew you would understand!! Let's go! Jake and the boys are outside of Vicky's room, Jake knocks on the door, and opens it. Vicky's pale dead face smiles at them as she welcomes them into her room. Vicky: Hey I was wondering when you guys would come visit me! Kirkland: What happened to you mom?? Jake: That's not important, all that matters is that your moms okay. Vicky: Jake's right, now I want hugs from all my men, and a kiss from my hero. Steve and Kirkland both give Vicky big bear hugs and step back. Jake then walks over and gives Vicky a peck on the lips and then walks to the other side of the room. Vicky: Boys, do you think I could talk to Jake alone for a minute? Steve and Kirkland: Sure mom. Steve and Kirkland leave the room. Vicky: That was harsh Jake. Jake: What do you want me to pretend I don't know everything? Vicky: I did this for you Jake. Jake: Just because you have problems, doesn't mean you can blame them on me. Vicky: Don't you think I know I'm messed up? Vicky: Jake, the authorities are threatening to take our children away from us. I can't believe I screwed up this bad. Jake: Well you did. Vicky: But I still have you, and you'll help me, oh Jake I love you so much, I don't know what I would do without you. Jake: well then you best start learning. Vicky: What?? What are you talking about? Jake: I'm going to be leaving the cottage for a while, just until I think you can be trusted again. Vicky: But what about the twins, and the boys? Are you really going to make them suffer because of the mistake I made? Jake: The kids won't suffer. Vicky: Why’s that Jake, huh? They love you, and they need you. Jake: I need them too. Vicky: so then you'll stay? Jake: No, I'm leaving, and the kids are coming with me. Vicky: you can't be serious, Jake, I need you now more then ever, how can you just bail on me? Jake: This happened for a reason Vic, and you need to find out why before we can just move on with our lives. Vicky: But Jake, those kids, our kids, they need me. Jake: NO Vic, they need a mom. June 25, 2000 Renunion? Could a June 25th fan reunion be in the works?
From what we hear at TAWA, it surely is possible. It may be during
the weekend of June 25, 2000 in NYC, possibly Central Park. This
may become an annual affair. A possible event for this years reunion
is the dedication of the park bench, that is being coordinated by fellow
AW fans. If there isn’t enough money, items will be auctioned off
to raise the rest. A revisit to Blondies is also possible.
Will keep you posted.
