November 12 -25, 2002
Monday, November 18- When Elizabeth arrives at Rafe and Alison's Place, Alison shuts the door in her mother's face. But Elizabeth persists with her message and finally informs Alison that Elizabeth believes she may have found Alison's sister. Alison reluctantly allows her mother to come inside. Jamal spirits Marissa out into the woods, where Jamal tries to convince Marissa that Stephen Clay is the 'big bat' that Marissa had come to Port Charles to track down in the first place. But Marissa insists that it is just a case of mistaken identity - reminding Jamal of the way that Jamal believed that Marissa was really Casey when Jamal first met Marissa. Marissa points out that Stephen Clay loves sunlight and garlic and asserts her belief that Jamal is just plain crazy. As Marissa and Jamal argue, Jamal insists that Marissa is out of the band - and then Jamal blurts out that he loves Marissa. After Jamal shocks Marissa - AND himself - by declaring his love for her, Marissa agrees to leave the band if that is what Jamal wants. They begin to kiss and Marissa admits to Jamal that she loves him too! At Jack's Place, Tess tells Livvie that Livvie is bad and that Livvie keeps hurting Jack. Livvie surprises Tess by appearing to agree with Tess. At the same time, following Stephen's press conference at Seleni's, Jack attacks Stephen with a wooden stake. But Rafe suddenly shoots the stake out of Jack's hand with a single shot from Lucy's Vampire Slaying gun with silver bullets. Back at Rafe and Alison's Place, Elizabeth tells Alison that a woman in Canada had a child - a girl - following an affair with Malcolm and that the woman also has letters and pictures as proof of her affair with Malcolm. As Elizabeth makes a pitch for Alison's 'understanding' about her mother's affair with Stephen, Elizabeth notices Alison's engagement ring. Elizabeth tells Alison about seeing the ring the first night Elizabeth met Rafe outside the Recovery Room. Elizabeth begins to wistfully talk about the early years of her marriage to Alison's father - then Elizabeth abruptly assures Alison that Elizabeth believes that Rafe and Alison WILL live happily ever after. Meanwhile, at Seleni's, Stephen's guards quickly grab BOTH Jack and Rafe and, when Jack rages at Rafe because Rafe DELIBERATELY missed shooting Caleb, Rafe shows Jack the picture of Stephen Clay and informs Jack that Rafe believes it COULD be a case of mistaken identity and they need to PROVE that Stephen Clay IS Caleb BEFORE taking action. Rafe points out that, if Rafe had NOT prevented Jack from driving a stake into Stephen's heart, Jack would have just ended up in prison for murdering Stephen Clay and Caleb would have just found another way to be reborn. The guards take Jack and Rafe before Stephen and Stephen tells them he believes they are BOTH crazy and their 'joke' is no longer funny! Back at Jack's Place, Livvie tries to convince Tess that Tess is just jealous, but Tess insists that she is Tess! Then Tess tells Livvie that Jack will MAKE Livvie go away. Livvie finally tells Tess that Livvie believes that Jack COULD be happy with Tess. As Alison and Elizabeth talk about Rafe, Alison receives a call from Malcolm's old girlfriend in Canada and Alison makes arrangements to fly to Canada to meet the other woman and her daughter. Alison agrees to allow Elizabeth to accompany her and they make plans to take the private Barrington jet to Canada. Alison tries to call Rafe to tell him about the meeting in Canada, but Alison only gets Rafe's voice mail - but she does leave a message. Meanwhile, at Seleni's, Stephen accuses Rafe of attempting to murder him, but Rafe informs Stephen that IF Rafe HAD been trying to kill him, Stephen would be dead by now. Rafe tries to convince Stephen that, since no one was hurt, Stephen could let them both go. But Stephen promises that Jack and Rafe will now have to pay for trying to kill him. So Jack and Rafe land in jail. Livvie tells Tess that Jack told Livvie that Jack loves Tess as well, and Tess faintly smiles, admitting that she KNOWS about Jack's love for her. Then Livvie shows Tess an antique trunk and tells Tess that Jack left a gift for Tess inside the trunk. As Livvie entices Tess to go look inside the trunk to see Jack's gift, Livvie waits until Tess is right next to the trunk, then Livvie pushes Tess in to the trunk and locks the lid! In jail, Rafe continues to try to convince Jack that they are dealing with a whole different Caleb this time around and, whatever Caleb's game is, they will have to play a BETTER game! As Rafe philosophically observes that Jack and Rafe are going to have a LOT of free time to contemplate Caleb's game plan while they cool their heels in jail, Jack suddenly asks: "I mean, what if Caleb's out there, closing in on someone we know, we care about - while we are sitting here - in jail?' As Elizabeth and Alison board the Barrington jet, bound for Canada, Alison worries that Rafe has NOT arrived yet. The pilot suddenly announces that a storm is moving in and they will need to leave right away if they are going to beat the storm to Canada. As the plane's engines rev up, Stephen suddenly enters the lounge, and Alison vainly tries to get the plane to stop so she can get off. But it is too late! Stephen announces to the frightened Alison that Rafe will NOT be able to make this trip! Tuesday, November 19- Lucy and Ian arrive at Jack's Place at the same time and are surprised when they find the door unlocked but no one at home. Ian admits that he came to check on Tess - to be sure she was OK - since the last time Ian saw Tess was at Ian's Loft, just before Ian confessed his love for Lucy. Meanwhile, Livvie is busy, dragging the antique trunk with Tess locked inside outside to the storage shed. Livvie goes off and leaves Tess locked in the trunk inside the shed. As Livvie leaves, Tess weakly pleads for someone to help her. At the same time, in jail, Officer Doree tells Jack and Rafe that they can have one phone call each. Jack decides he should call Chris to bail them out, but they both decide it might be more important for Rafe to make the first call and try to get hold of Alison. In the meantime, Alison freaks out when she realizes that Elizabeth has invited Stephen to fly to Canada with them to meet Alison's long-lost sister. Elizabeth and Alison go up front to speak to the pilot about landing the plane. So, when Rafe calls Alison's cell phone, Stephen hears it ringing in Alison's purse - and answers it! As Rafe recognizes Caleb's voice, Rafe threatens to kill Caleb if Caleb touches one hair on Alison's head. But Stephen pretends that he can NOT hear Rafe - and breaks off the communication. As Lucy and Ian discover that neither Tess nor Jack appears to be at home, they both decide to wait for Tess and Jack to return. Lucy and Ian have an uncomfortable conversation about where their friendship is headed now that their mutual attraction to each other has been acknowledged. But they both conclude that Lucy is truly committed to Kevin and that Ian intends to respect Lucy's feelings about her troubled husband. When Elizabeth and Alison return from the Barrington Jet's cockpit to report that the pilot will land at the next available airport, Alison notices that there is a missed call on her cell phone. As Alison angrily questions Stephen, Stephen admits that he picked the phone up and he thought that the call might have been from Rafe. When Alison points out that Rafe will probably tear Stephen limb from limb because Stephen intercepted Rafe's call to Alison, Stephen triumphantly informs Alison that it will probably be difficult for Rafe to tear anyone limb from limb, because Rafe and Jack have been arrested for attempting to murder Stephen. When Alison flips out and Elizabeth tries to mediate between her boyfriend and her daughter, Stephen tells Alison that he will do whatever it takes to prove to Alison that Stephen is NOT this Caleb monster that Alison and her friends keep babbling about. Alison suggests that a good place to start would be by dropping the charges against Rafe and Jack. Caleb asks for Alison's word to keep Rafe away from Stephen. When Alison appears reluctant to give her word, Elizabeth agrees FOR Alison and Stephen puts a call through to the Port Charles Police Department and tells the police officers that Stephen is dropping the charges against Rafe and Jack. As Lucy and Ian agree that they will deal with their situation one day at a time, Livvie suddenly rushes through the living room and is frightened when she sees Lucy and Ian standing there. At the same time, in jail, as Rafe and Jack wait for Chris to bail them out, they are stunned when Doree announces that Stephen Clay has dropped the charges against them and they are free to go. As their personal possessions are returned, Rafe grabs his cell phone and checks the messages. Rafe discovers that Alison left a message that she was flying to Canada on the Barrington Jet to meet her long-lost sister. Rafe and Jack realize that, if Stephen answered Alison's cell phone, that must mean that Stephen is also en route to Canada on the same plane with Alison and Elizabeth. At the same time, the Barrington Jet begins to run into some serious turbulence and the pilot advises the passengers to fasten their seat belts. Back at Jack's Place, Lucy and Ian grill Livvie to try to discover what she has been up to that has left Livvie sweaty and dirty. Livvie claims that she tripped and fell as she was on her way to see Jack because Livvie is positive that Caleb is back. Livvie claims she came to Jack's Place to make peace with Tess but could not find anyone around when she arrived. As Livvie 'innocently' wonders where Tess could be, Tess keeps pounding on the trunk in the shed, pleading for help. At the jail, Rafe is busy with his cell phone, attempting to learn what destination the Barrington Jet's Flight Plan shows as their destination. Rafe is devastated when he is told that the Barrington Jet just dropped off the radar. In the meantime, Stephen is carrying Elizabeth and Alison away from the wreckage of the burning Barrington Jet. Wednesday, November 20- Marissa arrives at the studio to tell them she is quitting. Ricky comes out and is surprised to see Jamal. He tells Marissa that she knows the rules. No outsiders allowed. Jamal tries to apologize to Ricky for his behavior, but Ricky won’t accept the apology. Marissa tells Ricky she’s quitting the band. Ricky can’t believe Marissa is buying into the vampire stories. He tells her that by leaving the band, she is giving up the chance of a lifetime. Marissa assures Ricky that leaving the group is her decision. Josh walks into the studio talking on his cell phone. He then announces to the band that Stephen was a passenger on the Barrington jet when it crashed. Jamal asks who else was on the plane, but Josh has no idea. Jamal quickly places a call to Rafe and hears the bad news. Joshua is ready to cancel all the band’s appearances and practices, but Ricky says no way. He thinks the band should record as much as they can in anticipation of Stephen’s return. Josh doesn’t like being challenged, but he is forced to go along when the rest of the band agrees with Ricky. Ian and Lucy have a hard time believing that Livvie wants to mend fences with Tess. Before they can ask more questions, Jack and Rafe rush in. Rafe tells them about the plane crash while at the same time trying to find out information on the plane’s whereabouts. Livvie pipes up and tells Jack that she thinks that if Caleb has Alison, maybe he took Tess as well. Jack doesn’t believe there is a connection between Caleb and Tess and ignores Livvie’s idea. Then, Jack turns to Ian and reminds him he was supposed to be keeping an eye on Tess. Jack demands to know what was more important to Ian than Tess’s well-being. Rafe asks Lucy if she can get access to a helicopter so they can go look for the jet. Lucy places a phone call, but is told that because of the weather, none of the pilots are willing to fly. Ian hears this and volunteers his services. He learned to fly helicopters during his time in Africa. Lucy wants to argue, but a look from Ian tells her not to waste her breath. At the crash site, Stephen revives Elizabeth who immediately calls out for Alison. Stephen takes her to Alison and Elizabeth begins to cry thinking she’s lost her daughter. Finally Alison opens her eyes and Elizabeth promises everything will be fine. She cradles Alison in her arms asking what kind of woman she could have been to leave her baby. Elizabeth tells Alison that she is the only good thing to ever come from her. Alison has grown into the woman Elizabeth always wanted to be. She tells Alison, “You are my heart.” Stephen comes over to tell Elizabeth the pilot didn’t make it. Stephen is going to try to get the radio working. Elizabeth is worried about Alison who has fallen asleep in her arms. Alison is so cold. Stephen offers his coat while Elizabeth goes in search of something warmer. Alison awakes to see Stephen standing over her. “Looks like it’s just you and me.” Stephen says with a smile. Thursday, November 21- Left alone at Jack's Place, Livvie gleefully contemplates being able to comfort Jack when Jack returns from his unsuccessful search for Tess. Livvie starts a fire in the fireplace and fixes herself a sandwich. Meanwhile, out in the shed, Tess weakly calls for Livvie and knocks on the trunk. Livvie is disturbed when she realizes that she can hear Tess's voice, calling for Livvie. Meanwhile, at the Hospital, as Rafe, Jack, Lucy, and Ian wait for their helicopter to be prepared for take-off, Lucy informs her friends that officials will not allow them to take off in the storm. At the same time, at the crash site, Stephen tries to convince a wary Alison that he is NOT Caleb and that he just wants to be friends - but Alison is NOT buying his story. As Livvie prepares to eat her sandwich, she continues to be haunted by Tess's voice, calling for her. Livvie tries to convince herself that Tess is NOT really real and that Tess is just a figment of her imagination, created by Caleb to torture Livvie. Livvie suddenly notices Tess's doll, lying on the floor and Livvie grabs the doll and tosses it into the fireplace. Livvie is angered when the doll does not appear to begin to burn right away. Back at the Hospital, Jack is trying to discover if anyone has seen Tess in any of her favorite haunts around the woods, but draws a blank. Jack continues to hope that he will discover that Tess IS on board the downed Barrington jet. When Ian tries to apologize to Jack for letting Tess slip out of his sight, Jack snaps that if anything HAS happened to Tess, Ian will have to live with it! As Rafe worries that they will NOT be able to get to Alison before Caleb hurts her, Lucy urges her cousin to try focusing his energy on his love for Alison. Ian suggests that they take off in the storm, even without permission, but Lucy persuades Ian to wait a little while to see if the storm will clear enough. In the meantime, Rafe makes a heartfelt prayer for guidance in finding Alison: "Hey! Remember me? Well, I really need your help now. I know you sent me back here to be with the woman I love and I promise you - I thank you every day for that. But I also know you would NOT send me back here just to have us separated again. I know that all the powers that I have come from you - and I really need them right now. I really need you to help me find her and I trust - I have faith - with all my heart - that you WILL!" Rafe suddenly has a vision of Alison and announces that he knows WHERE Alison is - and they will be able to DRIVE to the crash site. So Rafe, Jack, Lucy and Ian take off for the car. In the meantime, at the crash site, Alison is afraid of Stephen when he mentions that the blood seeping from her arm is because her arm is broken. As Stephen tries to assure Alison that he has been known to faint at the sight of blood, Alison begs Stephen to just leave her alone. But Stephen persists in binding up Alison's arm. When Elizabeth returns and reports that she has had NO luck finding the luggage OR the warm coats, Stephen begins telling them humorous stories about his early days as a struggling artist, attempting to start a band. Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, Livvie realizes that she can NOT get warm even with the heat on, the fire blazing and wrapped up in a heavy blanket. Livvie also notices that she is thirsty and hungry. As Livvie begins to realize that she also can NOT breathe, Livvie opens the door and steps out on the porch to get some air. Then Livvie collapses on the porch, calling for Jack and beating on the floor. At the same time, inside the trunk in the shed, Tess ALSO beats on the walls of the trunk and frantically calls for Jack. Back at the crash site, as Stephen entertains Alison and Elizabeth with funny stories about his early days as a musician, Alison tells Stephen that, although he LOOKS like Caleb, Alison is now convinced that Stephen is NOT Caleb. Rafe, Jack, Lucy and Ian suddenly arrive and Lucy wraps Elizabeth in a warm blanket while Ian tends to Alison. But, when Jack asks where Tess is, Alison and Elizabeth inform Jack that no one but the three of them were passengers on the plane. When Ian leaves to get more bandages for Alison, Alison's blanket slips off of her shoulder and Stephen moves to put the blanket back around Alison - but Rafe suddenly pulls out his vampire-slaying gun with silver bullets and points it at Stephen, warning Stephen to stay away from Alison. But Rafe is surprised when Alison begs Rafe NOT to hurt Stephen! Friday, November 22- At the crash site, when Rafe threatens to blow Stephen away unless the 'rock star' stays away from Alison, the Vampire Slayer is truly shocked when his lady-love implores Rafe NOT to hurt Stephen. As Stephen moves out of Rafe's line of fire, Alison further stuns Rafe by telling her intended that she is CONVINCED that Stephen is NOT Caleb! Stephen insists that he is only interested in making sure that Elizabeth and Alison are OK. Alison testifies to Rafe and Ian that Stephen took care of Elizabeth and Alison as they struggled to survive the plane crash. As Stephen walks away from Alison, he runs into Jack, and Jack demands to know WHERE Tess is - but Stephen pleads ignorance. Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, as Tess continues to beat on the trunk in the shed and call for help, Livvie begins to revive on the porch and realizes that she can not breathe because TESS can not breathe! So Livvie concludes that Livvie and her look-alike are BOTH dying. Livvie struggles out to the shed and painfully releases Tess from the trunk. As Ian assures Alison that her arm is just sprained, Rafe begins to quiz Alison about Caleb - but Alison continues to insist that he is 'just' Stephen. Alison explains that Elizabeth invited Stephen along - and that is how Stephen came to be aboard the downed plane. Rafe insists that Caleb deliberately had Rafe arrested so that Caleb could get Elizabeth and Alison alone, but Alison points out that Stephen ALSO had Rafe released - AND that Stephen made NO attempts to hurt either Elizabeth OR Alison while they were all alone and it would have been easy! Alison goes on to assert that Alison believes that Stephen merely looks like Caleb, the same way that Tess looks like Livvie. However, when Jack continues to demand what Caleb has done with Tess, Caleb grabs Jack and warns Jack to leave Stephen alone. Ian separates the two, while Elizabeth confides to Lucy how marvelous Stephen was during the crash and how devastating it was to Elizabeth when Elizabeth was afraid of losing her daughter before the two of them had a chance to even get to know each other. When the Emergency crew arrives, Stephen and Elizabeth leave. After Stephen and Elizabeth are gone, Jack confides to Lucy his growing concern for Tess's safety. Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, when Livvie releases Tess from the trunk, Tess tells Livvie that what Livvie did was very bad. As Livvie asks if Tess is her sister or her twin, Tess admits that she does NOT know. Livvie tells Tess that Livvie KNOWS now that - IF Tess does NOT eat or drink, Livvie will feel hungry or thirsty. When Livvie tells Tess that Livvie is sorry and will protect Tess and take care of her - Tess asks WHY Livvie tried to hurt her. Livvie admits that it was because Livvie believed that Tess had been sent to hurt Livvie. When Livvie vows to protect Tess, Tess asks: "Protect your soul?" Just as Tess and Livvie are making peace, Jack returns home and rescues Tess's smoking doll from the fireplace. Meanwhile, at the Hospital, Alison reports to Rafe, Ian and Lucy that Stephen took Elizabeth back to her hotel room to get cleaned up, and Stephen will be bringing Elizabeth back to the Hospital later. Rafe takes Lucy aside and reports that Alison is NOW convinced that Stephen IS Stephen and NOT Caleb. Lucy and Rafe decide to continue their investigation into Stephen's past. When Lucy asks Rafe HOW Rafe knew WHERE to look for Alison - Rafe confesses to his cousin that he had a sudden, unexplained flash of insight that led him to Alison - but Rafe does NOT know if that means that his powers are returning. After Ian and Lucy leave Alison's Hospital room, Rafe cuddles up on the bed with her and Alison confides in Rafe how thrilled she was when her mother suddenly acted like a REAL mother during their struggle to survive the crash. Alison tells Rafe that she is looking forward to having a REAL mother-daughter relationship now with Elizabeth. When Stephen arrives at Elizabeth's Hotel Room to pick her up to take her to the Hospital to see Alison, Elizabeth tells Stephen that he was wonderful and that she is immeasurably grateful to Stephen for all of his help in surviving the crash - but Elizabeth has decided to break off the relationship so that Elizabeth can devote ALL of her spare time to making up for lost time in her relationship with Alison. Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, Jack is suspicious when Livvie and Tess enter the house together. When Jack demands answers from Livvie about Tess's disappearance, Livvie fibs to Jack that Livvie went for a walk and ran into Tess. Livvie tells Jack that Livvie now agrees with Jack that Tess is an amazing person! However, when Tess sees the charred remains of her doll, she bursts into tears. Jack promises to get Tess a new doll, but Tess says: "You can't! It's my baby!" Then Tess turns around and looks at Livvie and tells Jack that it was Livvie who burned her baby! Meanwhile, back at the Hospital, Lucy finds Ian at the Nurses' Station and, when Ian expresses his weariness, Lucy tenderly takes Ian's hand. At the same time, back in Elizabeth's Hotel Room, Stephen tells Elizabeth that, while he IS disappointed by Elizabeth's decision to break off their relationship, he is also able to understand WHY Elizabeth wants to devote more time to being with her daughter. Admitting that the loss of Elizabeth in his life WILL be VERY hard for Stephen to take, Stephen asks Elizabeth for a good-bye kiss. And, as Stephen kisses Elizabeth, Caleb suddenly bares his fangs and bites her neck - and Elizabeth goes into shock! Alison dreamily tells Rafe how thrilled she is now that it is beginning to look like Alison and her mother can really have a TRUE relationship with each other. Monday, November 25- At Jack's Place, Tess cries that Livvie burned her baby. And, as Jack demands answers, Livvie admits that she DID throw Tess's doll into the fireplace. At the Hospital, as Alison tells Rafe about her renewed relationship with her mother, Rafe becomes suddenly angry when Alison tells Rafe how kind and considerate Stephen was during their plane crash ordeal. But Alison insists that she KNOWS that Stephen is NOT Caleb. When Rafe persists in reminding Alison that Caleb's Talisman, Michael, was ALSO kind and considerate but he was ALWAYS Caleb underneath the friendly persona - Rafe emphatically declares that he does NOT want Alison anywhere near Stephen Clay. Meanwhile, in Elizabeth's hotel room, Caleb sinks his fangs into Alison's mother. When Elizabeth passes out, Caleb deposits her on the bed and then puts in an emergency call to Joshua, announcing that there has been a sudden change of plans. Back at Jack's Place, Livvie explains to Tess that Livvie burned her doll because Livvie was afraid of Tess and was afraid Tess would hurt Livvie -and that Livvie wanted to hurt Tess BEFORE Tess could hurt Livvie. Livvie tells Tess that, IF Tess had known Livvie BEFORE Caleb destroyed Livvie's life, Tess would probably have liked Livvie. But, when Jack informs Livvie that he is NOT going to let her get away with pinning her bad behavior on to some dead vampire, Livvie reminds Jack that Caleb IS back. Livvie is shocked when Jack declares that they can NOT be sure that Stephen Clay IS Caleb. But, as Jack demands the WHOLE truth from Livvie, Tess surprises both Jack AND Livvie when Tess declares: "She saved me. Livvie saved me!' Back at the Hospital, Rafe apologizes to Alison for reacting so strongly to Alison's defense of Stephen. But Alison reminds Rafe that he HAS done an extensive background check on Stephen and everything checked out. As Rafe contends that it is STILL possible for Caleb to have 'created' Stephen's past, Alison reaffirms HER belief that Stephen is just an ordinary nice guy who is hiding behind his rock and roll image! Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, Livvie fibs to Jack that Livvie came across Tess while Livvie was walking On the Docks and, at first, Livvie DID consider just leaving Tess wandering all alone down by the Docks, dazed and confused - but, then, Livvie decided that Tess NEEDED her - so Livvie bundled Tess up in her coat and brought Tess home with her. Livvie insists to Jack that, for once, Livvie DID do the right thing. When Jack asks Tess if Livvie DID save her, Tess affirms that Livvie DID save her. When Jack leaves to get Tess a sandwich, Livvie asks Tess WHY Tess kept mum about Livvie locking Tess in the trunk and Tess replies: "Because I think you ARE sorry. And I do NOT want to hurt you!' Tess admits that she CAN feel all the hurt Livvie has felt about Caleb. Livvie shows Tess a newspaper photo of Stephen and tells Tess: "THIS is Caleb!' TESS: "No. No. That is Stephen! He gave me my baby, so I wouldn't be lonely.' Jack returns with food for Tess. As Jack walks Livvie to the door, Livvie asks Jack how long Tess has had that doll and Jack replies that he believes that Tess has had the doll 'pretty much forever!' Outside, Livvie asks herself: "How could Stephen have given Tess a doll that she has had forever if they just met?' Meanwhile, back at the Hospital, Rafe asks Alison: "Why would you think I WANT Stephen to be Caleb?' ALISON: "Because - you feel so ALIVE when you are hunting evil! And it IS what you were born to do!' RAFE: "No! I was BORN to love you! This whole crushing evil thing is just a job.' ALISON: 'Well, it IS starting to consume you!' Alison reminds Rafe that SHE believes that they BOTH wanted the whole 'normal life' together and Rafe assures Alison that HE wants that too. Alison asks: "Then - WHY are you trying to stir up trouble? WHY can't you just enjoy life and stop fighting battles that are NOT even there?' Alison implores Rafe to just focus on them and their upcoming wedding. And Alison reminds Rafe that all Alison wants to do is find her missing sister, so Alison will have a family member to stand up with her when she marries Rafe. Rafe assures Alison that she IS going to have it ALL! Alison finally asks Rafe if he could JUST keep an open mind where Stephen is concerned. Meanwhile, in Elizabeth's hotel room, Joshua asks Caleb: "WHY is it so important to you to win these people over?' CALEB: "Because I am tired of living in the shadows all the time. I WANT to live in THEIR world. And I WANT to be loved!' JOSHUA: "Beginning with Olivia?' CALEB: "Beginning with her!' JOSHUA: 'She HAS betrayed you before. I am afraid she will betray you again!' CALEB: "I'll NEVER let a woman get to me like that again!' JOSHUA: "It's too risky! Let me get rid of Olivia for you!' CALEB: "You do NOT touch her! She is MINE!' Caleb then orders Joshua to leave. As Joshua goes, Joshua observes: "It looks like you ALREADY have your hands full!' Caleb covers Elizabeth up and, when Elizabeth begins to wake up, Caleb tells her that she fainted and offers her liquid from the blue bottle, as he assures her that it will make her feel better. When Elizabeth goes back to sleep, Caleb heads out to visit Alison in the Hospital. Back at Jack's Place, Jack tries to find out what happened between Tess and Livvie that they are NOT telling him, but Tess only says that Livvie was sad and Tess forgives Livvie. When Jack asks what Tess wants, Tess tells Jack that she would like another baby. When Jack brightly agrees that they will go to the store tomorrow and buy another baby for Tess, Tess shocks Jack when she informs him that what SHE wants is a REAL baby.' Livvie arrives at Caleb's studio and demands to see Caleb. Livvie is shocked when Joshua suddenly appears behind her. Rafe agrees to keep an open mind about Stephen IF Alison will agree to do the same. As they begin to kiss and make up, Stephen suddenly appears, bringing gifts for Alison and informing Alison that Elizabeth was exhausted and Stephen insisted that Alison's mother stay at the Hotel and get some rest. As Alison insists on giving Stephen a hug for all of his help, Elizabeth suddenly shows up and begins kissing Stephen, announcing that she just could NOT stay away!

#5 November 26 - December 11, 2002
Tuesday, December 3- When Lucy goes to bed at the Lighthouse, she dreams of admitting to Ian that she loves him and that they are getting ready to hit the sheets. But Lucy is startled awake when she finds a man in her bed, KEVIN! Kevin admits that he has been at the Lighthouse for a couple of days and that he arrived at night and just went to sleep in the Studio. When he awoke the next morning and saw that Lucy had the house filled with company, Kevin had decided to wait until the company had gone before making his presence known. Meanwhile, Jack arrives at the Hospital with Tess and asks to see Chris. As Tess wonders WHY Ian would NOT be the one who would be running further tests on Tess' DNA, Jack flashes back to his conversation with Jamal, who wondered how long Jack would be able to keep Tess' DNA secret, as long as Ian was all over Jack's case about it. But, while Jack is waiting for Chris, Tess finds Ian and brings Ian to Jack, happily announcing that, since Ian is there, IAN can conduct the DNA tests. At the same time, at Stephen's Studio, Stephen remembers kissing Livvie, then calls Joshua and demands to know where Marissa is. Stephen orders Joshua to find Marissa and bring her to the Studio right away. After Stephen hangs up, Band-Member Cass tells Stephen that Elizabeth called and left an urgent message for Stephen. Stephen decides that Elizabeth must need another dose of the magic blue elixir. In the meantime, Elizabeth is at the Recovery room, transfixed by the sight of blood on the cut on Rafe's hand. Back at the Hospital, Ian promises Jack that he will keep all of Tess's tests secret and Tess leaves with Ian. When Chris arrives, Jack tells Chris that Jack NEEDS Chris to help Jack protect Tess. Meanwhile, at the Lighthouse, Kevin explains to Lucy that Dr. Fox decided that Kevin was ready to go home and continue his therapy as an outpatient. Kevin produces official release papers to convince Lucy that Kevin is now in fine mental health. Lucy accuses Kevin of spying on her and demands to know WHY Kevin did not at least CALL Lucy before coming home. But Kevin insists that this news just did not seem like the kind of news that should be entrusted to a telephone call. Kevin tells Lucy that he WILL leave if Lucy is NOT comfortable with Kevin staying at the Lighthouse. Then Kevin asks if Lucy still loves him. Lucy hesitantly assures Kevin that there was NEVER any question of her love for him. Meanwhile, Elizabeth seems mesmerized by the sight of blood on Rafe's hand and, while Elizabeth shakily tries to help Rafe bandage the cut, Stephen arrives at the Recovery Room. However, before Stephen enters, Alison stops Stephen and tells Stephen that she wants to talk to him about Elizabeth. Alison fills Stephen in on Elizabeth's attempt to scam Alison by pretending that Elizabeth HAD discovered Alison's missing sibling. Stephen urges Alison to give her mother another chance - because - 'Blood is thicker than water!' Meanwhile, inside, Rafe tries to quiz Elizabeth about her obviously nervous reaction to Rafe's wound. But, when Stephen arrives, Elizabeth anxiously flings herself into Stephen's arms. And Stephen hustles Elizabeth outside for a walk. When Stephen gets Elizabeth outside, he urges her to drink from the blue bottle. When Elizabeth pleads that there IS something seriously wrong with her, Stephen assures Elizabeth that he is flying a specialist in the following day. When Elizabeth drinks from the blue bottle, her symptoms vanish almost instantly! When Elizabeth demands to know WHAT is in the bottle, Stephen again assures Elizabeth that it is just a mixture of vitamins and electrolytes. Stephen testifies that that particular magic elixir has given all the members of his band 'a new lease on life!' Stephen leaves a blue bottle with Elizabeth and instructs her to have a sip whenever she feels tired or sick. Then Stephen tells Elizabeth that Alison is upset about the 'Sister Shannon Scam' that Elizabeth tried to pull. And Stephen tells Elizabeth that BEFORE Elizabeth gets any more loving from Stephen, Elizabeth needs to do some damage control right away, where Alison is concerned! At the same time, at the Hospital, Tess and Ian return from taking Tess's DNA tests and Ian complains to Jack that Chris showed up to 'help.' When Jack insists that Jack ASKED Chris for his help, to provide backup to make sure there were no mistakes, Ian asks to go off to talk privately with Jack. Before he leaves, Jack asks Chris to keep an eye on Tess. When Jack and Ian are alone, Ian warns Jack that doctoring tests to prove that Tess IS human will NOT change the truth about Tess - and it is the TRUTH about Tess that Jack will have to live with. Jack tells Ian that Jack wants Ian to walk away from the Tess situation in order to protect Tess from being turned into a curiosity. Ian promises to keep Tess's secret. Meanwhile, at the nurses's station, Chris gives Tess a stethoscope so she can listen to her heart. But, just as Tess is starting to enjoy listening to her heart, Chris is suddenly called away to answer a phone call. As Tess begins to listen to her own heart beat, she suddenly remembers Livvie searching for Caleb at the Wedding House. And then Tess remembers Livvie running through the woods. Tess begins to cry and cover her ears and throws the stethoscope down. Back at the Lighthouse, as Lucy tells Kevin that he is beginning to sound like himself again, Kevin assures Lucy that he believes they WILL come out of their past difficulties stronger than ever. Back at the Recovery Room, Alison tells Rafe how important it is to Alison for Elizabeth to be a part of their wedding. Stephen and Elizabeth suddenly return and Elizabeth shows Alison the signed agreement they made for Elizabeth's help in finding Alison's missing sibling in exchange for Alison's share of the inheritance and Elizabeth tears up her contract in front of Alison and Rafe. Elizabeth promises that she will help Alison find her lost sibling because it is the RIGHT thing to do - and NOT because Elizabeth is expecting any kind of reward. Elizabeth testifies that it was Stephen who helped Elizabeth see the light about the importance of Elizabeth's relationship with her daughter. Alison is obviously impressed, but Rafe remains skeptical. As Kevin and Lucy kiss good night at the Lighthouse, Kevin perceives that Lucy still does NOT trust him, so Kevin proposes that he stay in his studio until he wins Lucy's trust back. However, when Kevin returns to his studio, he puts in a call to Dr. Fox: KEVIN: "Dr. Fox - Kevin Collins. I'm doing well - thank you! As a matter of fact, I am doing VERY well! Well, I did everything that you suggested that I do. Made all the moves you told me to make. I DO believe that she thinks I am STILL her dear, old Doc! The man she THINKS she married! Well, I don't think she needs to know yet that I am such a vast improvement over THAT simpering fool. A VAST improvement!' Wednesday, December 4- At Stephen's Studio, Elizabeth thanks Stephen for helping her mend fences with Alison, but continues to wonder about the 'strange' feelings that come over her every now and then. ELIZABETH: " I just wish I could figure out WHY I get so sick sometimes, though. I mean - it is really hard to explain. It is like I'm hungry for something!' Stephen flashes back to biting Elizabeth, but tells her again that he is flying in a specialist to check her out. In the meantime, Stephen tells Elizabeth, she should keep drinking the special water in the blue bottle. When Elizabeth tries to entice Stephen to spend the day with her instead of practicing with the band, he suddenly yells at her that HIS music IS important! Then, he just as suddenly apologizes for snapping at her. When Elizabeth leaves, Livvie slips out from the shadows and follows Elizabeth back to her room at the Port Charles Hotel. Jamal and Marissa arrive at the Recovery Room, right after Ricky leaves for band practice. Jamal and Marissa talk about Marissa's agreement to quit Stephen's band because Jamal is convinced that Stephen is really Caleb. But, when Marissa leaves the Recovery Room, she heads straight to Stephen's Studio! Unfortunately, after Marissa leaves, Jamal spots Ricky's wallet on the Recovery Room floor and Jamal decides to return the wallet to Ricky at Stephen's Studio! Meanwhile, at the Light House, Lucy tries frantically to call Ian without Kevin realizing what Lucy is trying to do, but Kevin suddenly interrupts her. Kevin convinces Lucy that they should go for a walk down by the Light House Bridge. But, when Kevin goes to get some coffee and Lucy goes upstairs for her coat, Ian arrives and just walks in, talking about his breakfast plans with Lucy. And Ian is shocked when he sees Kevin, just standing there, with a cup of coffee in his hand! Immediately assuming the worst, Ian hysterically demands to know WHAT Kevin has done with Lucy. When Lucy returns downstairs and explains to Ian that Kevin has been released to continue his therapy as an outpatient, Ian bluntly refuses to believe that Kevin's mental health is any more stable now than it was when Kevin attacked Ian in New York. Lucy assures Ian that Lucy called Kevin's doctor and has the doctor's assurance that Kevin is on the mend. Kevin announces that Kevin is willing to do whatever it takes to get his life back in order and win his wife's trust as well. Livvie follows Elizabeth to Elizabeth's Hotel room and introduces herself. Livvie pitches a story about being a dear friend of Alison's who has been at odds with Elizabeth's daughter and Livvie asks for Elizabeth's help in arranging a reconciliation between Alison and Livvie. But, Elizabeth tells Livvie point blank that Elizabeth has already heard about Livvie's desperate man-stealing habits and that Elizabeth does NOT believe that Livvie is at all interested in a reconciliation with Alison. Livvie then admits that she came to talk about Stephen. But Elizabeth informs Livvie that Elizabeth believes that Livvie is a true nut case who just wants to climb in to bed with Stephen - like all the other groupies who hang out around Stephen. Livvie asks WHAT Stephen sees in Elizabeth if he can have any woman he wants and Elizabeth smugly gloats that it is because she gives Stephen what he needs. Elizabeth angrily calls Livvie a whore, then orders Livvie to get out. And Elizabeth storms out of the room. But, instead of leaving, Livvie slips unnoticed in to the closet instead! When Marissa arrives at the Studio, Ricky tells her that he is happy Marissa decided to stay with the band after all, but Ricky warns Marissa about Stephen's surly mood. When Marissa hands her new lyrics to Stephen, Stephen erupts and tells Marissa that her lyrics stink! Marissa is genuinely stunned by Stephen's outburst. As band members Cass, Reese and Ricky listen, Stephen angrily tells Marissa: "I gave you a very specific assignment! I TOLD you I wanted a song about a man who can NOT stay away from a woman who is POISON to him! A woman who can NOT decide whether she wants to devote her life to him or destroy him. What you gave me - I could get it from a greeting card!' As Marissa contritely assures Stephen that she will make another attempt to get the right lyrics, Stephen begins to tell Marissa that she has to live and breathe the music - or she will be OUT of the band! Just at that moment, Jamal walks in to return Ricky's wallet and is shocked to find Marissa there. As Stephen demands to know who Jamal is, Stephen asks if Marissa PLANNED to quit the band and Jamal reminds Marissa that she promised him that she WAS quitting the band. But Marissa tries to convince Jamal that she just can NOT give up her opportunity with a top band and Marissa flat out tells Jamal that it is unfair for Jamal to ask Marissa to choose between her work with the band and Jamal's love. Jamal angrily announces that he will make the choice easy for her and Jamal angrily storms out of the Studio. Stephen tells the band that they will scrap practice for the day and try again tomorrow. As the rest of the band leaves, Stephen apologizes to Marissa for blowing up at her, explaining that he has just had a bad day. Back at the Light House, Kevin apologizes to Ian for making paranoid accusations about Ian's relationship with Lucy in the past and Kevin thanks Ian for looking after Kevin's family while Kevin has been away. When Ian raises the issue of the assault charges that Kevin was facing when Kevin left Port Charles for the Swiss clinic, Kevin reassures Ian that Kevin is meeting with Police Commissioner Mac Scorpio about the pending assault charges and will do whatever it takes to get all of that cleared up. When Kevin learns that Lucy and Ian had plans for breakfast, Kevin urges them to go ahead with their plans. Lucy tells Kevin that she DOES need to speak to Ian privately, and then Lucy will meet Kevin down by the Bridge. After Kevin goes upstairs to his studio, Lucy tells Ian that she believes that Kevin IS getting better and Lucy reminds Ian that she DOES love Kevin. Ian assures Lucy that he understand - then Ian leaves. But, upstairs, Kevin goes into a meltdown and angrily mutters that Ian has been poisoning Lucy against Kevin. Back at Elizabeth's Hotel room, Elizabeth has a drink of her Magic Blue Elixir and leaves to get a bite to eat. After she is sure that Elizabeth is gone, Livvie slips out of her hiding place and begins to search the room for evidence that Stephen Clay IS Caleb Morley. But Livvie suddenly hears Elizabeth and Stephen returning to the room and Livvie hides again in the closet. Unfortunately, when Stephen enters the room, he recognizes Livvie's perfume and Elizabeth confides that Livvie visited her. As Stephen and Elizabeth talk about Livvie's obsession with Stephen, Stephen begins to suspect that Livvie is in the closet, so Stephen begins to kiss Elizabeth passionately. Thursday, December 5- At Jack's Place, as Jack prepares for a picnic, Jack is stunned when Tess arrives, dressed in one of Livvie's outfits. Tess is crushed when she realizes that Jack does NOT want Tess to look too much like Livvie. Tess finds it hard to believe that Jack would NOT be happy with Tess looking EXACTLY like Livvie - whom Tess KNOWS that Jack truly loved. Tess tentatively suggests that, maybe, if Tess and Livvie LOOK the same, perhaps they ARE the same. But Jack insists that Livvie has ALWAYS been drawn to and fascinated by the dark side, whereas Tess is a child of light, who has used her gifts for healing to do good, whereas Livvie has hurt many of the people who loved her most. Tess agrees that she KNOWS that Livvie has hurt Jack deeply. Meanwhile, at Rafe and Alison's Place, Rafe tries to get Alison to wake up and, when he finally succeeds, Alison announces that she is meeting Elizabeth later to go try on wedding dresses. Rafe is surprised that Alison would be so eager to mend fences with her mother after Elizabeth tried to foist an imposter off on Alison as her long-lost sibling. But Alison gently tells Rafe how often she has dreamed about her mother helping her get ready for her wedding. Rafe is concerned about the possibility of Stephen joining them for their shopping trip and Alison reminds Rafe that Rafe promised that he would lay off of his suspicions about Stephen. Rafe tells Alison that Rafe STILL believes Stephen is Caleb. RAFE: "It is just - it IS him! I KNOW it! I SEE it!' Meanwhile, in Elizabeth's Hotel Room, Stephen has suspected that Livvie is watching from the closet and puts on a show of getting passionate with Elizabeth - just for Livvie's benefit. However, Elizabeth cuts their make-out session short when she announces that she has an appointment to meet Alison to go shopping for a wedding dress. Stephen urges Elizabeth to go ahead and keep her date with her daughter. After Elizabeth leaves, Livvie prepares to leave the closet - only to realize that Stephen has NOT left the room - and is highly amused that he has caught Livvie playing peeping Tom. Livvie angrily blasts Caleb for deliberately trying to make her jealous by making out with another woman when he KNEW Livvie was watching! As Alison drifts back to sleep, Rafe decides to enter Alison's dream to try to prove to Alison that Stephen really IS Caleb. Alison dreams that she is in a room with Stephen while Stephen is practicing his guitar and that Stephen is happy to see her. Rafe assures Alison that it is not really Stephen that Alison is seeing - that it is only just a dream. As Alison speaks to Stephen, he goes from being happy to see her to bearing his fangs. At that moment, Elizabeth comes in to Alison's bedroom, wondering why Alison is not ready yet for their shopping expedition. Elizabeth becomes alarmed when she discovers her daughter, gasping for air and seemingly unconscious. Meanwhile, back at Jack's Place, Tess tells Jack that she is afraid that Jack will leave her because she is like Livvie. Then Tess wonders if Jack would hate Tess also if Tess turned bad - the way Livvie did. As Jack does his best to reassure Tess, Tess finally admits that she sees things that make her afraid that she IS Livvie! But Jack gently tries to convince Tess that she is just having a dream. However, Tess confesses to Jack that she believes that she is seeing Livvie's thoughts! As Jack holds Tess, he tells her that he loves her and that she could NEVER be like Livvie. But Tess suddenly shudders and has another memory of Livvie searching for Caleb at the Wedding House. But, when Jack notices Tess shuddering and asks Tess WHAT she saw, Tess replies: "Nothing!' Back at Elizabeth's Hotel room, after Stephen 'discovers' that Livvie has been hiding in the closet, Stephen accuses Livvie of being jealous because Stephen resembles Caleb, whom Livvie was attracted to, and Livvie is jealous at the prospect of Caleb hitting the sheets with some woman other than Livvie. Stephen offers to do whatever it will take to convince Livvie that he is STEPHEN and NOT Caleb! Livvie challenges Stephen to look her straight in the eye and tell her the truth. So Stephen tells Livvie again that he is NOT Caleb, although he believes that this 'Caleb' Livvie keeps talking about must have been a very fortunate person because Livvie must have loved him very much. Livvie begins to believe Stephen's assertion that he has NOTHING to do with Caleb. Livvie apologizes for bothering him and admits to being embarrassed because she has seemed so obsessive about the whole look-alike situation. Livvie gets ready to leave and Stephen walks Livvie to the door. But, as Stephen lets Livvie out the door, he says: "That is all right. We ALL make mistakes, Olivia.' AS the door closes, Livvie tells herself: "ONLY Caleb calls me Olivia!' Back at Rafe and Alison's Place, Elizabeth frantically tries to get Alison to wake up. But, inside Alison's dream, Alison says to Caleb: "You CAN'T be real! This is just a dream!' CALEB: "Oh, think again! Alison jumps up and runs to the door, which is locked. As Alison desperately calls out for Rafe, she turns around and sees Rafe standing behind her. Alison runs toward Rafe, but Caleb blocks her way, making it impossible for her to reach Rafe. ALISON: "Rafe! Rafe! Rafe! It IS Caleb. I KNOW it is! Please! You have GOT to help me! Please!' RAFE: "I can't move! Something is wrong!' ALISON: "Rafe! Please! Don't let him do this to me!' RAFE: "Alison - it is JUST a dream - OK? Wake up!' CALEB: 'Oh, you are WRONG, Slayer!' RAFE: "Caleb - don't touch her! You CAN'T touch her!' CALEB: "Did it NEVER occur to you that, when you were sneaking in to her dreams - maybe I could follow?' RAFE: "No!' ALISON: 'Don't let him do this to me! Please! Rafe! Don't!' CALEB: "Arrogant, pitiful Slayer! Your beautiful Bride to Be!" ALISON: "No! Don't let him!' CALEB: "Mine - ALL mine!' RAFE: "You can't touch her. You can NOT touch her! No! No! Stop it! Alison!' Caleb bites Alison and Alison passes out. RAFE: "Oh, God. NO! Alison!' Meanwhile, in Alison's bedroom, Elizabeth cradles her daughter in her arms and asks: "Oh, God! What is happening?' Friday, December 6- At the Hospital, Kevin reports to Lucy that his first outpatient session went very well. Victor meets Kevin with a copy of the police charges against Kevin for assaulting a blond prostitute when Kevin believed that he was Ryan. When Kevin and Victor head to the Port Charles Police Department, Lucy heads home but runs in to Ian instead. At his studio, Stephen autographs a picture of himself for Livvie, then leaves. As soon as Stephen is gone, Livvie slips in to the apartment, still looking for evidence to prove that Stephen IS Caleb. At the same time, in Alison's bedroom, Elizabeth holds an unconscious Alison in her arms and places a desperate call for help - but the call is to STEPHEN instead of 9-1-1! In the meantime, in Alison's dream, Rafe looks on in horror as Caleb bites Alison. Alison recovers long enough to accuse Rafe of being the one responsible for her death, then becomes deathly still. Back at the Hospital, as Lucy tries to make small talk, Ian suddenly blasts Lucy for upsetting his comfortable life with the sudden feelings for Lucy that have surfaced. Ian confides that, just as Ian was getting used to a life alone, he made the mistake of falling in love with someone who would never be able to love him back. As Ian confesses that he called an old girlfriend, Lucy assures Ian that he HAS been wonderful to her and that she IS grateful for his friendship. At the PCPD, as Kevin and Victor discuss Kevin's case, Victor informs Kevin that Kevin is facing a lengthy prison term if Kevin's victim pursues her case. Victor shows Kevin a picture of Kevin's pretty, young, blond victim and Kevin admits that he has no recollection of the woman at all. Victor reports to Kevin that Commissioner Scorpio has said that it looks like the woman WILL pursue the charges against Kevin. While searching Stephen's studio, Livvie flashes back to the day that Caleb told her the truth about his 'family legacy' and pledged undying love for her. Livvie lays down on Caleb's bed and flashes back to the day that she searched for Caleb amidst the billowing white curtains of the Wedding House - the SAME flashback that Tess keeps having. As Livvie flashes back to the many times that Caleb told her again and again that he would always love her, Livvie concludes that wherever he is and whatever else Caleb might have been, he DID truly love her. Meanwhile, back at Rafe and Alison's, Elizabeth continues to try to revive Alison. At the same time, inside Alison's dream, as Rafe finally holds the limp body of Alison in his arms, Caleb accuses Rafe of being the one who is responsible for Alison turning into a vampire - someone Rafe is now destined to slay! As Caleb disappears, Rafe admits that Caleb WAS right. As Rafe begs Alison to wake up - Alison suddenly awakes in her own bedroom and the first face she sees is Caleb. As Alison screams, Elizabeth rushes to her daughter's side and informs Alison that Elizabeth did not know what to do when she found Alison unconscious, so Elizabeth called Stephen. Back at the PCPD, Victor warns Kevin that Mac may have to arrest Kevin as soon as the following day. Declaring that he wants to be alone, Kevin goes for a walk down by the Docks, while Victor goes home. As he walks through the mists, Kevin suddenly runs in to the woman who has accused him of assault. Believing that Kevin might be a prospective customer, the woman asks Kevin if he would like a date, but she gasps in horror when she gets a good look at Kevin's face under the street light. Back at Rafe and Alison's, when Rafe hears Alison's screams, he rushes to her side and demands to know what Stephen is doing in their home! Alison tearfully tells Rafe that she had a dream about Caleb biting her and that Rafe was with her but could NOT help her. After Stephen and Elizabeth leave, Stephen confides to Elizabeth that Stephen believes that it looks like Rafe is driving Alison crazy and that Elizabeth, as Alison's mother, SHOULD find a way to convince Alison to break her engagement to Rafe. When Rafe and Alison are alone, Alison confides that her dream was so real and so awful and Rafe admits that he KNOWS. When Alison asks HOW Rafe could know about HER dream, Rafe confesses that he has discovered that he has to ability to enter dreams and that it was RAFE who guided Alison through her happy dream about an imagined childhood with her deceased father. Rafe admits that this time, something went wrong but Rafe does NOT know WHAT went wrong. When Stephen returns to his studio, he finds a nude Livvie waiting for him in his bed! Monday, December 9- As Rafe and Alison get ready for bed, Alison accuses Rafe of giving her a nightmare with the magical powers that Rafe SAID that he no longer possessed. Rafe tries to apologize by explaining that he just wanted Alison to see Stephen Clay the way Rafe sees him as Caleb the Vampire. ALISON: 'So - let me get this straight. You put some sort of spell on me! You put some sort of spell on me with your magical powers that I THOUGHT you didn't have any more!' RAFE: "It seems like when it comes to you, when I have really strong feelings like love or concern or anything like that, when they are really strong, I can tap into it. I can tap into the magic. I thought it was a fluke at first. I turned a yellow rose into a pink one without even trying. Alison is stunned when Rafe explains that her dream of her father was a dream that Rafe 'guided' her through. Alison accuses Rafe of being controlling and states that she wants no part of a life where Rafe would resort to brainwashing to change her mind every time they disagreed about something. Meanwhile, at the Light House, Lucy decides she needs to keep busy to keep her mind off of Ian, so Lucy sets about planning a romantic evening with Kevin. At the same time, On the Docks, Kevin has run into the hooker who is pressing assault charges against him. She begs Kevin NOT to hurt her. But Kevin grabs her and tells her that he is just getting his life back together and a jail term will NOT fit in to his plans. Meanwhile, Lucy suddenly wonders WHY Kevin has not returned to the Light House yet. At his studio, Stephen returns to find a naked Livvie in his bed. Livvie tries to get Stephen to call her Olivia again. But Stephen grabs her instead and they begin kissing. Stephen asks Livvie WHY she wants him now if she tried to destroy him before and Livvie answers that she now realizes that Caleb was the only one who ever loved her good, bad and no matter what. But Stephen tells Livvie that he can NOT forget that she betrayed him. When Livvie asks WHAT she could do to regain his love, Stephen tells Livvie that he wants her to beg. So Livvie reminds Caleb of some of the intimate moments they shared and begs Caleb to make her his bride again, now that she realizes how important their love really was. Meanwhile, Alison tells Rafe that his obsession with Caleb is making him act out in insane ways. Alison reminds Rafe that, when Rafe returned to Alison on the speeding train, Rafe PROMISED that he would put the magic aside and they would just be like normal people. And Rafe agrees that he DID make that promise and he truly DOES want to be just like everybody else. When Kevin returns to the Light House, Lucy assumes he has been spending time with Victor, but Kevin admits that he spent SOME time 'tying up loose ends.' Kevin tells Lucy that Kevin realizes that he made someone suffer and he needs to pay - but it does NOT look likely that the woman he assaulted when he believed he was Ryan will drop her charges, so Kevin is afraid they are in for a long haul. But, Kevin suggests that they put those worries aside for the evening and just enjoy being together. As Lucy hugs Kevin, she notices a scratch on his wrist. When Lucy asks how Kevin got the scratch, Kevin yells at her that he does NOT know. Before Lucy can get the First Aid kit to tend to Kevin's scratch, Victor comes to the door and announces that he has some startling news and that they had better sit down to hear the news. Fearing the worst, Lucy is overjoyed when Victor announces to Kevin that the hooker Kevin assaulted has withdrawn her charges against Kevin and is leaving Port Charles for good. Back at Rafe and Alison's Place, Rafe confesses to Alison that the experience with her nightmare frightened Rafe as well. Rafe promises that he will keep his magical impulses under control. However, after Rafe turns out the light for the night, Alison turns the light back on and asks if they can keep the light on for the night. At the Light House, after Kevin and Victor hug and Victor hurries on home, Lucy enthusiastically tells Kevin that the Universe has finally heard their prayers and she hugs Kevin. Kevin asks: "How about that Universe?' But, as Kevin hugs Lucy, he looks at the scratch on his hand behind her back. Meanwhile, at Stephen's Studio, when Livvie begs for Caleb to bite her neck so they can be one again, Stephen bursts into laughter and pulls a set of fake, dime-store fangs out of his mouth. Stephen tells Livvie that it was all a gag, that he is NOT Caleb - just Stephen Clay - as he has told her a million times. Stephen leaves so Livvie can get dressed. But, after Stephen leaves, Livvie says to herself: "So, you still want to play, Caleb? OK. I'll be patient because I have ALL the time in the world!' Tuesday, December 10- When she opens the door to the Light House, Lucy is surprised to see a very changed Rafe. As Lucy tells her cousin she likes the results of a shave and haircut, Rafe confides in Lucy that he needs her to teach him how to be normal. In the meantime, Alison meets Elizabeth at Elizabeth's Hotel room for a shopping expedition. But, instead, Elizabeth suddenly tells Alison that Elizabeth believes that Rafe is WAY too whacked out about the vampire stuff for Alison to be rushing into marriage with him. As Alison reminds her mother how much she loves Rafe, Alison is surprised when she discovers that Stephen is ALSO visiting in Elizabeth's room. Jamal and Ricky run into each other at the Recovery Room, and Ricky tells Jamal that Ricky's opinion is that it was really dumb for Jamal to insist that Marissa quit the band. Marissa surprises them both when she suddenly arrives. Elsewhere at the Recovery Room, Livvie is surprised to see her Dad, Kevin, and is thrilled when Kevin shares the good news with her that he has been released to continue therapy as an outpatient and all of the assault charges pending against him have been dropped. Kevin hands Livvie a newspaper with Stephen's picture in it and Kevin asks why a vampire Livvie killed is alive and well and living in Port Charles. Back at the Light House, Lucy points out to Rafe that she is probably the WRONG person to ask about being normal, since Lucy listens to the Universe and talks to her pet duck. Rafe confesses how he used his magic to get inside Alison's head and Alison is now pretty determined Rafe will learn HOW to be normal - and soon! But Rafe observes that maybe being 'not normal' runs in the Kovich family. Lucy warns that it might NOT be safe for Rafe to give up his magic just yet, since they ARE dealing with a returned vampire. But Rafe insists that he wants to become normal right away because that is what Alison wants. Back at the Recovery Room, Marissa tells Jamal that he should NOT have demanded that Marissa choose between her gift for words and Jamal. But Jamal reminds Marissa that it IS Marissa who has the gift for words and NOT Stephen Clay - so Marissa needs to realize that Marissa does NOT need Stephen Clay to 'find her voice!' ESPECIALLY since Jamal is STILL convinced that Stephen is really Caleb the vampire! At the same time, across the room, Kevin and Livvie discuss the return of Caleb and Kevin asks point blank if his daughter is more interested in getting Caleb back than she is in destroying him. Although Livvie denies that she would ever want Caleb back in her life, Kevin remains positive that he is correct about his daughter's renewed fascination with the dark side. Meanwhile, at the Light House, Rafe asks Lucy what normal people do and Lucy says that they have jobs. But, when they start listing Rafe's job skills, they discover that his job skills are pretty much limited to slaying vampires and survivor skills, like being able to hit a moving target with a crossbow and being able to track anything. Lucy decides that she has just the ticket for a job for Rafe and Lucy takes Rafe to a warehouse that Lucy had hoped to turn into a fitness center. Lucy urges Rafe to take over as the new director of Lucy's Fitness Center. Back at Elizabeth's hotel room, when Elizabeth tells Alison that she believes her daughter should NOT be rushing into marriage with Rafe, Stephen interrupts and surprises Elizabeth by counseling Alison to follow her heart where love is concerned. When Alison heads to the powder room, Elizabeth expresses her surprise to Stephen. But Stephen just tells Elizabeth that they must learn to choose their battles, instead of letting the battles choose them. Stephen reminds Elizabeth to drink plenty of water and then, Stephen leaves. But, once Stephen is outside Elizabeth's hotel room door, he just disappears! Meanwhile, back at the Recovery Room, Marissa tells Jamal that Jamal should give Stephen a chance to prove what a good guy he is and Marissa shocks Jamal when Marissa suggests that Jamal should spend some time with Stephen! At the same time, as Kevin and Livvie talk, Livvie admits that she has felt empty since she killed Caleb and that, while Caleb DID hurt her deeply, Livvie is STILL drawn to the power and passion that Caleb seems to exercise. Livvie asks Kevin what she should do. And Kevin observes that his daughter is like a moth drawn to a flame and that she should leave Stephen alone entirely - Livvie should ESPECIALLY not be trying to prove whether Stephen is or is not Caleb. But, when Kevin goes outside, he tells himself: "Don't worry about a thing, Livvie. Lucky for you - Daddy's back in town!' When Lucy shows Rafe her proposed Fitness Center, Rafe is at first reluctant to become involved. But, as Rafe and Lucy talk, Rafe finally decides it might be useful to be able to teach self defense techniques to people and Rafe agrees to go along with Lucy's idea. Back at Elizabeth's hotel room, when Elizabeth heads to the power room, Alison spills Elizabeth's blue bottle of magic elixir and refills it with regular water from the hotel pitcher. Then Elizabeth and Alison head out to shop. Back at the Recovery Room, Marissa persuades Jamal to hang out with the band and Jamal agrees, on condition that Marissa promises that she will NEVER be alone with Stephen. When Marissa and Jamal leave, Livvie approaches Ricky and, striking her most sultry pose, asks Ricky if his invitation to dinner is still open. When Caleb returns to his studio, he smells gas. Kevin suddenly appears and announces; "I think you have a gas leak. In fact, I KNOW you do!' Kevin bolts the door, while Stephen threatens to call the police. KEVIN: "No. I think you and I need to have a talk first. Now, you can either make yourself comfortable - or I can send you right back to hell. It is YOUR choice!' And Kevin shows Caleb that Kevin is holding a lighter, ready to be ignited! Wednesday, December 11- At the boutique, Alison searches for the perfect wedding dress and accessories. She is debating on a pair of shoes when the clerk brings in a bouquet of pink roses and a bottle of champagne. It is a gift from Rafe. Alison worries when she notices Elizabeth isn't feeling well. Elizabeth says only Stephen's designer water seems to make her feel better. She takes a drink, then wonders why it isn't working this time. Alison admits she accidentally spilled the water, then refilled it at the hotel bar. The sales clerk comes in with another gift for Alison. This time it is a key. There is a note from Rafe saying it is a surprise. Alison leaves to find him. Alison finds Rafe at an empty warehouse building where he has set up a make shift table with a candlelit picnic. He tells Alison that he is going to lease the building from Lucy with an option to buy. Rafe plans to use the space to start a business. He is going to build a gym. There is also an apartment upstairs where they can live. Rafe asks Alison if this is "normal" enough for her. Alison says no, it isn't normal, it's heaven. Kevin tells Stephen to stay away from his daughter. Kevin pretends to flick his lighter while he taunts Stephen with his threats. Stephen knows that since the room is full of gas, it would only take a small spark to blow the place up. No matter how much Kevin taunts Stephen, Stephen still refuses to admit he is Caleb. Kevin tells Stephen that if the rock star thing doesn't work out, he should consider the theater. Kevin asks questions, Stephen continues to evade them. After awhile, Stephen reminds Kevin that if he flicks the lighter, they will both be dead. Kevin calls this fact ironic. He doesn't seem to care. Kevin accuses Stephen of taking Livvie over to the dark side. Stephen, becoming affected by the fumes, slips and calls Kevin Doc. This is the break Kevin was waiting for. No matter how Stephen tries to explain his slip away, Kevin knows. Finally, Stephen agrees that if Kevin keeps Livvie away from him, he'll avoid Livvie like the plague. Kevin turns off the gas and leaves. Now, the only fumes are coming from Stephen himself. Jack takes Tess to see the Christmas decorations. She is delighted with all the new sights and sounds. Ian comes by with Danny. When Jack asks Ian where is Lucy, Ian replies she is home with her family where she belongs. Tess asks Ian if she can hold Danny and show him the lights. Ian reluctantly allows her to walk off with his son. He is not sure what to make of Tess. As Tess shows Danny a Christmas display, she has a memory flash of Livvie taking Danny. Tess wonders what it means. Why is she experiencing Livvie's memories? Tess snaps out of her reverie and notices Danny is now missing. She searches for him and calls his name, but he is nowhere to be found. Danny wanders over to Elizabeth. She picks him up and coos, "What a beautiful little boy you are. I could just EAT YOU UP!"

#6 December 12-27, 2002
Thursday, December 19- Jack and Tess arrive at Tess's cave. While Jack is thrilled to be back, Tess tells Jack that she does NOT want to be there any more. Jack lights a fire and, as they kiss, Jack tells Tess that he wants to make love to her. Alison meets Rafe at the Recovery Room and Rafe tries to keep the Blue Bottle of Stephen's Designer Water out of Alison's sight. Alison announces that she is going to meet her mother to discuss wedding plans, but Rafe begs off with an excuse that he has some super secret wedding stuff he needs to get finished. Meanwhile, at Stephen's Studio, Caleb explains that Elizabeth will never have to feed on anyone that she will get the urges, but the water will help her control that. Caleb assures Elizabeth that she will never have to hurt anyone - and she will never grow old! Caleb tells Elizabeth that all she has to do is keep her water supply safe and never let anybody near it. But, as Caleb and Elizabeth make out, Alison suddenly knocks at the door. At Livvie's Place, Livvie sets the scene for seduction and slips into something scanty for Ricky. But Livvie sends Ricky to the kitchen to get the wine and some glasses. Then Livvie calls Caleb and tells him that she knows about his special water and he needs to meet with her right away! Rafe takes his water bottle to the Hospital and uses the lab to discover what is in the bottle. But Chris catches Rafe coming out of the lab and Chris tells Rafe that the labs are off limits to everyone but Hospital personnel. When Rafe claims he was looking for Ian, Chris tells Rafe that Ian is NOT into research. Rafe suddenly remembers that Chris does do research and Chris assures Rafe that Chris is the best researcher at GH. Rafe hands Chris his list of the chemicals in the Designer Water and asks Chris for his help in analyzing the contents of the Blue Bottle. Chris immediately recognizes the components as being closely similar to the vampire serum that Chris worked on last year. Chris fills Rafe in on the details of the research Chris did on the vampire serum! Alison apologizes to her mother for tracking her down at Stephen's Studio, but Alison explains that she felt it was necessary after the door man at the Port Charles Hotel had told Alison that Elizabeth had left with Stephen but that Elizabeth had not appeared to be feeling well when she left. Elizabeth lies that she has met with Stephen's specialist and is now feeling much better. When Caleb receives his call from Livvie, Livvie threatens to tell Rafe about Caleb's special water unless Caleb meets with her immediately. Caleb makes an excuse and rushes off, leaving Alison and Elizabeth alone at the Studio. Meanwhile, Livvie makes sure her apartment is brightly lit and then Livvie unlocks the door. Then Livvie begins kissing Ricky. Back in the Cave, Tess continues to tell Jack that she no longer feels at home in the cave, but Jack explains to Tess that he is trying to help her get rid of her headaches. As Jack kisses Tess, Tess suddenly remembers Livvie running through the woods and Tess announces that she can not make love with Jack. Meanwhile, back at the Hospital, after Chris informs Rafe that the serum Chris developed would have given the recipient all of the benefits of being a vampire without the need to feed, Rafe asks: "So - did Caleb learn about the research?" CHRIS: "Caleb? Yes! That's why he came after me! 'RAFE: "So - he knew?' CHRIS: "Yeah. He knew. What is going on? Where did you get this?' RAFE: "Later, Chris!' CHRIS: "Whoa! Wait a minute! What does this have to do with Caleb? Is he alive?' But Rafe rushes off without answering. Meanwhile, Caleb comes to the door of Livvie's apartment and finds the door open. When Caleb peeks in, Caleb sees Ricky and Livvie, making out on the couch. As he watches Livvie and Ricky make out, Caleb's fangs come out and his eyes turn red. Meanwhile, back at Stephen's Studio, Alison notices that her mother is very hyper but Elizabeth explains it away by telling Alison that it is just a bad case of being incredibly, happily, deliriously in love with Stephen. When Elizabeth suddenly rushes into the next room to get some bridal flowers to show to Alison, Elizabeth leaves Alison alone in the room with Elizabeth's Blue bottle of Designer Water - and Alison takes a drink from the blue bottle! Back at the cave, Tess explains to Jack that she loves him and wants to be with him, but NOT at the cave! Tess asks Jack to take her home. While Jack puts the fire out, Tess suddenly has a vision of Caleb ripping Tess out of Livvie's dead body. At the same time, Caleb watches Livvie and Ricky making out on the couch. But, before Caleb can enter the room, Rafe arrives! RAFE: "Oh -oh! Your fangs are showing! Caleb!' Friday, December 20- At Stephen's Studio, Elizabeth returns to the room and panics when she discovers Alison holding the Blue Bottle of Stephen's Designer Water in her hand. Elizabeth immediately snatches the bottle away from Alison and tells her daughter NOT to drink from the bottle. When Alison asks what is wrong, Elizabeth covers by claiming that she does NOT want Alison to catch any germs from the bug that Elizabeth has been battling for months. But Alison reminds her mother that they shared a soda the other day and Elizabeth did NOT seem to mind about that. Alison opens the bottle and tries to see if she can detect anything like alcohol inside the bottle. Alison suddenly asks her mother if someone in the band has gotten her hooked on something, some kind of drug, that would be concealed in the water bottle. But Elizabeth denies that she is intoxicated by anything other than love. Meanwhile, outside Livvie's apartment, Rafe catches Caleb with his fangs exposed and Stephen finally admits to Rafe that he IS Caleb - then Caleb disappears. When Caleb disappears, he reappears in a snow-packed spot in the woods. But Caleb is shocked when he turns around and realizes that Rafe was able to follow him. Caleb observes that Rafe must have retained SOME of his angelic powers in his transition back into the mortal world. At the same time, inside Livvie's apartment, Livvie suddenly tells Ricky that something is wrong and then, announcing that the door is open, Livvie rushes to the door, expecting to find an enraged Caleb seething with jealousy in the hallway outside. But Livvie is obviously disappointed when she finds only a deserted hallway. Ricky asks what the matter is and Livvie drapes herself with a blanket and shocks Ricky by announcing that they were about to make a terrible mistake and that Ricky should leave. Jack arrives at Kevin's office and implores Kevin to acknowledge Tess as part of Kevin's family. But Kevin coldly informs Jack that Kevin does NOT believe that Tess has anything to do with Kevin and that, since everyone else in town turned their backs on Livvie when she needed them most because sweet and innocent Tess arrived on the scene, Kevin feels no need to try to 'help' ANY of Livvie's former friends, least of all - Jack and Tess! Before Jack leaves, Jack repeats his belief that Tess IS, somehow, connected to Kevin. In the meantime, at Livvie's Place, Ricky is angry at Livvie's sudden announcement that she plans to cut their romantic evening short. As Ricky gives Livvie a piece of his mind and reminds her NOT to try hanging out with the band any more, Ricky yanks open the door and is shocked to find Tess standing at the door, preparing to knock. Ricky leaps to the conclusion that Livvie was waiting all along for Tess to appear - and then Ricky storms out of the building. Meanwhile, in the woods, Rafe asks Caleb how he came back. But Caleb evades the question and tries to convince Rafe that he is a new and improved version of Caleb. Caleb insists that Rafe can tell for himself that Rafe has had difficulty detecting Caleb's presence and that there are no bodies piling up. Rafe tells Caleb that Rafe suspects that Caleb's Designer Water allows Caleb to live in the mortal world without feeding. When Rafe asks WHY Caleb would choose to appear as a rock star amongst his old enemies in Port Charles, Caleb insists that he just wanted to have a little fun and stir things up a bit. When Rafe brings up the fact that Caleb turned Elizabeth into a creep just like Caleb, Caleb insists that he gave Elizabeth a gift - and Elizabeth IS happy! As Caleb smugly taunts Rafe, Rafe suddenly brings out a wooden stake. But, when Rafe lunges at Caleb with the stake, Caleb keeps disappearing and reappearing just behind Rafe. Caleb tries to convince Rafe that Caleb just wants to end the senseless, centuries old feud between their two families. Caleb tells Rafe that Caleb is content with what he now has - power, money, and immortality. Caleb urges Rafe to learn to be content with what Rafe already has - the mortal life with Alison that Rafe desired so much. But Rafe tells Caleb that Rafe believes that Caleb could NEVER change and - sooner or later, lives will once again be destroyed by Caleb. Rafe suddenly plunges the stake in to Caleb's heart and Caleb falls unconscious in the snow. Back at Stephen's Studio, Elizabeth is amused when Alison suspects that Elizabeth has gotten hooked on drugs. But Elizabeth is also sincerely touched when her daughter tells her that Alison would be willing to get Elizabeth whatever help Elizabeth needs to kick a habit. Elizabeth assures her daughter that she is only 'high' on being in love. But, as Elizabeth begins to tell Alison how important their blossoming relationship is to Elizabeth, Elizabeth suddenly announces to Alison that Elizabeth wants to share a very special gift with Alison. At the same time, at Livvie's apartment, Tess begins to tell Livvie about the night that Caleb deposited Livvie's dead body down by the water - then ripped Tess from Livvie's lifeless body. As Tess remembers, Livvie begins to remember the same things. Tess remembers running away, into the woods - alone! Tess tells Livvie that Tess IS Livvie and that there is NO Tess. Then Tess sadly leaves. Meanwhile, in the woods, Caleb suddenly reaches up and pulls the stake out of his body, announcing that he must now be immune to even the stake. Caleb looks at the stake in his hand and asks: "So - what do you think we ought to do with this - Slayer? I mean, it didn't work - on me! But YOU are just a man now. Aren't you? Just flesh and blood?' Monday, December 23- Tess returns to Jack's Place and tells Jack that she has been to see Livvie and now knows the reason behind the pictures she keeps seeing in her mind. Tess tearfully explains that she is a part of Livvie and that she is NOT anybody. But Jack tenderly reassures Tess that she is VERY real to him. To demonstrate, Jack kisses Tess and they continue kissing - then they hit the sheets. At Stephen's Studio, Alison expresses her sincere concern for her mother's health and Elizabeth is genuinely moved by her daughter's concern. Elizabeth seriously contemplates biting Alison in order to give her daughter the greatest gift of all - immortality! But, as Alison tries to locate a doctor for Elizabeth, Elizabeth begins to have second thoughts and excuses herself as she flees into the next room. Meanwhile, in the woods, Rafe is genuinely shocked when Caleb appears to be immune to the stake Rafe has just driven into his heart. As Caleb gets up with the stake in his hand, Rafe dares Caleb to go ahead and try to take Rafe out. Caleb lunges at Rafe, but stops before he reaches Rafe. Caleb announces that is is no longer "in to" killing and just wants fame, fortune and rock and roll. When Rafe asks WHY Caleb wants all of that in Port Charles, of all places - Caleb announces that his band is going on a road tour soon, so they will no longer be in Port Charles. Rafe tries to learn if the water has anything to do with Caleb's return, and Caleb admits only that "It helps!' When Caleb claims that he has been a perfect citizen this time around and has NOT killed anyone - Rafe brings up the way Caleb turned Alison's mother. Rafe accuses Caleb of going after Elizabeth as a way to get to Alison and, ultimately, to Rafe. But Caleb tells Rafe that, while Caleb had that goal in mind originally, Caleb has since come to care for Elizabeth but Caleb will SOLVE the Elizabeth problem by taking Elizabeth along when the band goes on tour. While Elizabeth is in the next room, Mr. Travis, the private detective that Alison hired to help locate her missing sibling, brings a box to Alison and explains that he found the box hidden behind a wall in her father's old office. After Mr. Travis leaves the Studio, Alison hesitantly opens the box and discovers some books and some old love letters. Alison determines that the letters were NOT written by her mother and comes across one letter making plans for Malcolm to visit his lady love and THEIR child. Alison decides this MUST be a letter talking about her lost sibling. As Alison continues to investigate, she discovers that the box has a false bottom and in the hidden bottom, Alison discovers a picture of a lovely, dark-haired woman with the name 'Katrina' written on the back. Alison concludes that that MUST be a picture of the woman who wrote the letters to her father and that Alison is looking at a picture of the mother of her brother or sister. Meanwhile, Elizabeth is stunned when she realizes that she contemplated biting her own daughter and wonders what she has become. When Elizabeth returns and notices the box, Alison just says that the private detective brought it by, but Alison does NOT show her mother the love letters OR the picture of Katrina! Back in the woods, Rafe insists that Caleb has robbed Alison of her mother just as the two were beginning to make a real connection, but Caleb professes that he IS truly fond of BOTH Alison AND Elizabeth. As Rafe vows to do away with Caleb in the end, Caleb shocks Rafe by announcing that Caleb has RAFE to thank for Caleb's second chance on earth. According to Caleb, when someone from upstairs returns to earth, someone from downstairs is allowed to return as well, to keep everything 'in balance!' Tuesday, December 24- At Rafe and Alison's Place, Rafe contemplates Caleb's pronouncement that Caleb got a free ride back to earth with Rafe when Rafe traded in his heavenly wings for a mortal life with Alison. Rafe worries whether or not he will be able to keep the promises that he made to Alison that they would lead a 'normal' life, now that Rafe knows that evil in the form of the returned Caleb Morley STILL needs to be vanquished in order to keep all of their loved ones safe. Later, Alison tries to get Rafe to share what is on his mind, but Rafe puts it off and Alison begins to discuss plans for their upcoming wedding. Noticing that Rafe still seems pensive about something, Alison urges her angel to just have faith. Ian visits Eve's grave with Danny and, as Ian puts out a small tree with some decorations, Ian admits to his absent wife that he has been struggling this past year to give Danny the happy life that Danny deserves - but Ian confesses that he believes he has been messing up in that department. Meanwhile, at the Light House, Lucy tries to tell Kevin how unsettling his 'new and improved' attitude is to her, but Kevin urges Lucy to put the past behind them and get on with the future. Meanwhile, at Jack's Place, as Jack and Tess get ready for company, they are stunned when Livvie arrives at the door and announces that she is moving in with 'her sister!' Jack informs Livvie that she is NOT going to do that, but, when Jack goes to the door to greet Jamal, Marissa and CHRIS, Livvie urges Tess to speak to Jack for her. Livvie reminds Tess that now, since they BOTH know that Caleb created Tess from Livvie, they NEED to stick together and protect each other, because whatever causes one of them pain, also causes pain to the other. Later, Tess convinces a dubious Jack to change his mind and allow Livvie to stay. As Kevin and Lucy argue about Kevin's 'new and improved' outlook on life, Serena and Christina come downstairs and Christina asks Kevin to tell her the Christmas story of how they all became a family last year on this very day. As Kevin begins to remind Lucy of their wedding last year, they both begin to remember the promises that they made to each other. Back at Jack's Place, Marissa invites Jamal to visit her family next Christmas and CHRIS asks Tess about her headaches. Tess tells Chris that the headaches are getting better. When Chris asks Tess if there is anything that he could do for her, Tess replies that she thinks the one thing she wants most is for everyone to just be together and love each other. Later, Livvie gives Tess a scarf that is similar to a scarf that Livvie already has. Jamal takes Jack aside later and asks Jack if it is a good idea for Livvie and Tess to be wearing matching outfits and Jack agrees with Jamal that Jack DOES have reservations about the wisdom of Tess and Livvie dressing alike. Meanwhile, back at Rafe and Alison's Place, Alison tells Rafe about the private investigator finding a box that belonged to Alison's father and about the box containing a picture of the woman Alison believes is the mother of her lost sibling. Alison then gives Rafe a watch that is solar powered, so it will never run down, and will alwlays be there to remind Rafe of the eternal bond he shares with Alison. Alison also reminds Rafe about the watch he had last winter that was ticking off the time until Rafe had to leave Port Charles and those he loved. Suddenly, the lights go out all over town and, one by one, the residents realize that the only light on in town is the giant Christmas tree in the park. One by one, the various residents of Port Charles find their way to the tree, where Serena hands out candles and they all sing 'We Wish You A Merry Christmas' together. Thursday, December 26- At Rafe and Alison's Place, Alison writers a letter to her future children, telling them the story of Rafe and Alison's love for one another and, as Alison writes, she flashes back to memorable scenes of Rafe and Alison's courtship. Meanwhile, at Stephen's Studio, Stephen tries to keep his mind on Elizabeth, but keeps flashing back to his brief marriage to Livvie. At Jack's Place, Tess tells Livvie that Tess is worried about Livvie. But Livvie tells Tess that it was Livvie's NEED for Caleb that brought Caleb back to Port Charles and that Livvie believes she loves Caleb. Tess tells Livvie that Tess believes that Tess is there to put an end to the hunger that Livvie feels for Caleb. Tess begs Livvie to let Tess heal Livvie of her hunger for Caleb, but Livvie refuses, telling Tess that Livvie is TIRED of people trying to 'save' her! Meanwhile, Caleb fantasizes about Livvie becoming part of his rock band and announcing to the world that Stephen is really Caleb Morley and that Livvie loves him. However, Elizabeth wakes up and breaks into Caleb's fantasy, calling him back to bed. Back at Jack's Place, Tess falls asleep and Livvie covers Tess up and tells her that Livvie can feel Caleb's hunger calling her, so Livvie leaves Tess sleeping and goes out. Friday, December 27- At Jack's Place, as Jack gets ready to head out to be an attendant at Alison's wedding, Jack and Tess wonder where Livvie has gone. Meanwhile, Livvie meets Caleb in the Park and tells Caleb that she KNOWS Caleb saw Livvie making out with Ricky on the couch at Livvie's Place. Then Livvie announces to Caleb that she and Tess BOTH have remembered the way that Caleb 'made' Tess from Livvie. Livvie suggests that Caleb's motive was that he loved Livvie so much, he wanted two of her. Caleb denies any knowledge of what Livvie is talking about. Meanwhile, at the Chapel, as Lucy puts finishing touches on the flowers, she runs in to Ian and apologizes for slapping him at the Hospital when he bad-mouthed Kevin. But, when Lucy begins to launch into a recitation about Kevin's latest strange behavior, Ian stops her. At Rafe and Alison's Place, as Alison practices walking down the aisle, Elizabeth arrives. When Alison runs to hug her mother, Rafe flashes back to his encounter with Caleb, when Caleb admitted that he has already bitten Elizabeth - and Rafe angrily tells Elizabeth to leave right away. Alison and Elizabeth are both stunned. In the Park, as Livvie confronts Caleb, she tells him that she is through chasing him but, when he wants to find her, he knows where to look. Then Livvie kisses Caleb and saunters off. After Livvie leaves, Joshua suddenly appears and reminds Caleb that Caleb becomes careless whenever Caleb is around Livvie. Joshua reminds Caleb that Livvie has killed him before and will be able to do it again. Even though Caleb insists that CALEB will handle Olivia, after Caleb leaves, Joshua says: "You will NOT have to!' At the Chapel, as Lucy begs Ian to continue their friendship, Ian tells Lucy that Ian has NO respect for Kevin but, since Kevin IS Lucy's husband, Lucy should be with Kevin and be happy. After Ian leaves, Kevin arrives. Lucy tells Kevin that she tried to apologize to Ian but Ian would NOT accept her apology. Back at Rafe and Alison's Place, Rafe apologizes for snapping at Elizabeth and says that he just wanted to be alone with Alison. Just then, Jamal and Jack arrive and Elizabeth tactfully herds Jack and Jamal back outside. When they are all gone, Rafe gives Alison an antique locket that belonged to his mother. Alison admires the locket, but does NOT open it! Back at Jack's Place, Tess decides to wear the sweater that Livvie gave her that is exactly like the sweater that Livvie is also wearing today! At the same time, Livvie runs through the Park and is surprised when she runs in to Joshua. Meanwhile, Jack and Jamal threaten to actually try to HELP Alison get ready for her wedding. At the same time, at the chapel, Lucy tries to help Rafe settle down enough to get ready for the wedding. Rafe finally confides to his cousin that he now knows for certain that Stephen IS Caleb. Rafe goes on to describe how Rafe staked Caleb in the heart and Caleb removed the stake as if it were a splinter! Rafe explains to Lucy that Elizabeth is also now a vampire and that Caleb was allowed to return to earth because Rafe came back. But as Rafe tells Lucy that he seems to be getting more of his powers back, Caleb suddenly shows up. As Lucy insists that Caleb stay far away from Alison's wedding, Caleb reminds them that he is a guest of the mother of the bride! In the meantime, while Livvie is talking to Joshua in the Park, Tess calls Livvie on Livvie's cell phone. Livvie tells Tess that everything is fine - then Livvie stuffs the phone into her pocket. But Livvie does NOT disconnect her phone, and Tess hears Josua inform Livvie that Caleb has changed his mind and now wants to see Livvie. Joshua tells Livvie that Caleb wants to meet her at the Docks! Tess yells in to the receiver that Livvie should NOT go to the docks to meet Caleb. But Livvie refuses to listen to Tess, turns off the phone and runs off to meet Caleb. Tess puts down the phone and decides that Livvie needs her protection. Back at the chapel, Kevin finds Ian and demands an apology from Ian for falsely accusing Kevin of having beaten the prostitute and Ian gives Kevin a left-handed apology - then Kevin warns Ian to stay away from Lucy. At the same time, as Rafe and Lucy order Caleb to get out - Caleb spills some of his wine on Lucy's dress. Then Caleb announces that he IS leaving town soon for a tour with his band. After Caleb leaves, Rafe promises Lucy that he will NOT let Caleb ruin his wedding day. Meanwhile, Elizabeth, Jack and Jamal help Alison put the finishing touches on her wedding dress.
