At The Farm, Frank sits in his chair, as there's a knock at the door, and answers, as he asks "May I help you?" At Jackson Inc, Xavier sits in his office, as evening falls upon Adam's Landing, alone, with questions inside his head, as he makes a phone call and goes "Meet me at The Sunset Club. Private Room." At Hell Hill, Beth hears her Daughter In Law inside her bedroom, as she lays in her bed with a man, as they've had sex, and Leigh pounces, and goes "Let's go another round." Outside Xavier and Leigh's Bedroom, Beth's eyes turn red with rage, and pulls out her pistol, debating her next move.
Across the road at Whispering Hills, Gracie arrives, as she hears yelling in the study, as Ava yells at Jack "Tell your Wife to back the hell off boy or else!" Jack yells "Damnit Mom I am on your side. I don't want to pick sides!" Gracie is silent, as she makes a phone call to Sully, as she and Henry are in bed, and Sully tells him "Javon's taking care of things and we don't get to do this much my bad boy." Henry grins, as they kiss, as they lay in bed next to each other and watch a movie, and feed each other ice cream. Back at Whispering Hills, Jack walks out of the study, and tells Gracie "Mom needs help maybe you can convince her." Gracie goes "Too many of my own cuz." Jack walks out with frustration in his eyes, as Ava asks her Niece, in a slurred tone "So wanna get out of here? Here's my keys. Let's go to Jazz." There's a knock at the door, as Gracie answers and Bree stands on the other side, as Ava hugs her tightly and tells her Niece "Congratulations!" Bree goes "How did you hear? You weren't there." Ava quips "Beth sent me a text. I had to fight my Daughter In Law this afternoon, and my Son is, well damn whipped." Gracie turns the other way, as Bree tells her Aunt "They want what's best for you. As do I, but I know you, and just wish you'd moderate and come around more." Ava sighs "I'm sorry. I'll try because I plan to spoil your child when he or she is born." Bree hugs her Aunt, and tells her Cousin "Gracie watch out for her." Gracie glares at Bree, as she returns home, and Ava asks Gracie "Do you have a problem with her?" Gracie answers "No. I need to call my Brother though." Ava yells "Go outside. I don't wanna hear about that backstabbing twin Brother you sadly have!" Gracie rolls her eyes, as Ava walks over to the bar, and pours a glass of whiskey.
At Jazz, Cale and Allison arrives, as Wade sits alone, and Allison asks "And where's your Wife?" Wade tells his Cousin's Wife "Lay off Allison!" Cale asks Wade "So tell me more about this shit with Brock?" Wade continues, as Allison tells him "He is my Aunt Beth's Grandson, Xavier's Son, and he's just taking time before he leaves you hanging." Wade gets a text meanwhile from Brock, saying "At Holiday Hotel, aka home. You're paying and if not then you know the deal." Cale asks Wade "So what was that about?" Wade quickly answers "Just Jared telling me he's leaving the office." Cale and Allison look at each other, and rolls their eyes, as they aren't buying it. At The Holiday Hotel, Bridget arrives at the bar, as Angelica appears, and Bridget snarls "Oh no. Not the devil herself to make her little threats she loves to do." Angelica laughs "I mean each one too. Now wanna talk since we're alone or shall I call Wade?" Bridget pays the bartender, and warns her "The reason Wade and I aren't living together is because of you. And seeing Xavier Jackson was enough for today!" Angelica asks "Ahh? Did he visit you? Was it cordial? Or did you make a common mistake you and your trash family are known for?" Bridget takes a deep breath, and snaps "You need to leave." Angelica smiles "Just know that Ruthie is also my Great-Granddaughter. She's a Hale. And you will show her respect or you pay with blood. That's a Santiago oath bitch." Angelica leaves, as Jared arrives, and Bridget looks at Jared, and tells him, as she gives him a kiss "Let's go upstairs and make everything ok baby?" Jared pays Bridget's tab, as they head to the suite they are sharing.
Meanwhile at The Evans Home, Aretha sits inside the living room, as Terrance, Javon, and Keisha arrive, as Willie tells them "What a little celebration! Should have seen the one in Southpoint Beach!" Aretha is distant, as Terrance asks his Sister "What's up Aretha? Rashad won. And here you are acting all weird. Back with that thug again? "Javon and Keisha are silent, as Willie asks her Daughter "What's wrong with you?" Aretha tells her family "Ryan Chase has made me a huge offer to sale The Exposer to him." Willie's eyes widen, as does Terrance. Javon asks his Aunt "Would you still run it if you sale?" Aretha sighs "I have to retire for ten years before I can come back. He's concerning me more than Rachel. She let me know when she called." Willie snarks "Rachel is growing a brain! I'll be damned." Terrance tells his Sister, as Javon and Keisha chimes in "Keep this in our family. It's an African-American owned media corporation you founded when you left the evening news at 24.." Aretha warns "Hang on now Terrance. One let's not mention age please. Secondly, I'm not selling it anyway. He's done ruined Adam's Landing News, and Rachel warned me about her and Roger's visit." Willie tells her Daughter "Keeping it is wise. And Rashad has a fallback plan for the future." Aretha reminds her Mother "He has that now with racing. But maybe for Javon and Keisha, this could be my gift to the two of you. I'll give both of you 25% and when or if I die, it's yours." Terrance tells his Son "Accept!" Javon and Keisha hug Aretha, as she tells them "I can't wait for the wedding." Willie heads upstairs, as Terrance follows his Mother.
At Beth and Ciarra's Penthouse, Ciarra, Ruthie, and Precious sits in the living room, as they play jazz records, and Ruthie asks her Great-Aunt "Let's play Uncle Allan's music?" Ciarra goes "I'm not into that. Beth plays it enough in this place and Precious and I prefer the standards. There's a knock at the door, as Ruthie answers, and Brock stands on the other side, and Ruthie looks at her Uncle, and goes "Grandpa might pop up. He tends to do that." Brock walks in, as Ciarra also warns her Great-Nephew "Xavier is still angry with you and you need to make up with him or you could be dead." Brock goes "That's what I'm going to do. I've lost my Father's respect because of Wade, and I'm going to double cross him!" Ruthie reminds him "My Dad also works there." Ciarra is silent, as Brock answers "Ruthie, let's not go there." Ciarra asks Brock "Need some cash?" Ruthie rolls her eyes, as Ciarra pulls out a stack of $100 dollar bills, and tells him "Call me next time before you pop up." Brock and Ciarra hug, as he leaves, and Ruthie looks at her Great-Aunt, as she sternly goes "And you keep your mouth shut. He's doing the right thing now!"
Back at The Farm, Frank sits in the living room, asking "So you walked all the way here and left with nothing?" Randi goes "Yes. I'm homeless." Frank who doesn't know her, adds "And your Husband left you and took everything? And you have nobody?" Randi cries, and Frank tells her "Now I have made a special pact that only one woman that's not my Nieces or Sister are allowed to stay here, but in this case I can make an exception." Randi gets on her knees and thanks Frank and asks "Do you have anything to drink by chance." Frank answers "Some shine I don't drink since my operation on my heart." Randi heads to the kitchen, as Frank takes a deep breath, and turns around, and looks her over.
At Hell Hill, Beth enters the former nursery, and glances through a crack in the door, with pistol in hand, as Leigh and the man continue to have sex. Beth glares intently and says in her head "Oh shit I don't believe this. I can't let this.." Beth kicks open the door, and Leigh and the man jumps as Leigh yells at her Mother In Law "The nerve you have.." Beth aims her pistol at Leigh, and asks "Which should I kill first. I don't believe this!" Leigh yells "I'm moving on and living here whether you like it or not!" Beth snaps back angrily "After this? Shit! No, you just met your worst enemy you whore. Oh my God.." Beth walks back and forth, as the man puts on his pants, and attempts to exit, as Beth stops, and goes "Are you who I think.." The man is silent, as Beth glares towards Leigh, and turns off the safety, and goes "This is the worst thing imaginable Leigh. The worst. No way in hell can you come back from this one, and in this home. Oh no there.." On the highway, as he drives back to Hell Hill, Xavier gets a text from his Mother, as he turns over, and he sits back for a second, and is silent, with shock in his eyes, as he can't move and gets emotional.
Back at Sully's Mansion, Henry walks in the kitchen, following Sully and she goes "We're just getting some more ice cream and then back up to bed. I am the boss." Henry, as Sully only wears a T-shirt, smiles "Oh yes." Sully tells Henry "Back to the bed now!" Henry heads upstairs as he gets a text from his Mother, and yells "Yes!" Sully asks "She's not coming back?" Henry goes "She's staying at a motel Sully. We have this night just to us!" Sully yells "My prayers are answered. I hope." As they walk back into the bedroom, Henry reminds Sully "I'm not throwing her out in the street." Sully asks Henry "I know she's old and worn, but can she work?" Henry gasps "Sully....she would be really offended." Sully quips "Well baby, if she's going to live here, then I plan to hire her to work at Class. And that can be called rent. But she will know what I expect and I got a plane ticket saved with her name on it to anywhere. At The Farm, Randi sits inside the living room, as she asks "So you knew Bob Jennings?" Frank nods, and goes "A hell of a mechanic. He worked for me in the 70s when I won my first championship and he and his friend William started an auto dealership in the Midwest. They sponsor my team when we run once a year at Blue Ridge." Randi cries "He died and I lost everything..." Frank begins to feel sadness for Randi, and she opens up to him, as Frank's eyes are locked on Randi, and studying her intensely.
At Bree's Mansion, Bree returns, as she asks Paul "Where's my Dad?" Paul tells his fiancée" Xavier made a phone call. Actually I'm wrong, Beth made it." Bree is quiet, as she tells Paul, putting her arms around him "My life is perfect now. I have you, and we'll raise Summer's boys, and our little bundle of joy and build a legacy together and break my family's dark past." Paul tells her, kissing her "You've done awesome. Our future is very bright baby." They head to the bedroom. At Whispering Hills, Ava sits inside the kitchen, as Gracie goes "Finished with a little recipe Aunt Ciarra taught me years ago." Ava quips "When its like this I feel so happy. You are so much like Sully. I need to spend more time with her outside the office, and Ruthie I hear is having problems with Bridget." Gracie hands a cup to her Aunt, as Ava takes a sip, and asks "Ice creamed coffee? And orange flavored?" Gracie smiles, as Ava goes "Gracie, this could have some potential beyond just a family secret. And after reading my email from Javon, perfect for ThriftQuik!" There's a knock at the door, as Ava gets up to answer, and Country stands on the other end, as Ava asks "What are you doing here?" Country walks inside, as Gracie greets him with a hug, and asks "Staying with Ava? Is she sharing the liquor?" Ava snaps "Go your ass to the bar and drink something and why are you here tonight?" Country answers "Xavier and Beth ordered it." Ava asks "Is it because of Jack?" Country answers "Another reason. And his Wife is a prissy little bitch now isn't she?" Ava quips "Oh yes she is!" Gracie grows concerned, as Ava walks over and pours herself a drink, as Gracie is silent, and quietly heads across the road.
As night's fallen upon Adam's Landing, The Evans Home has grown empty, as Willie sits in the living room, as Aretha returns, as Willie asks her Daughter "Where did you go?" Aretha tells her Mother "I went down while you and Terrance were upstairs and paid Ryan a visit, but he was gone. I did get a little dirt from his sweet Mama though, Judge Jo Chase." Willie smiles "She's a good woman. But I don't know about her Son from the way it looks. He's really out of his damn mind if he thinks he's going to rule an arena you master." Aretha nods, and agrees, as she calls it a night, as does Willie. At Bree's Mansion, Bree and Paul are in bed, as Paul tells her "Country is over at Ava's. He said he couldn't say anything else." Bree sighs "Oh no." Paul turns and asks "Why oh no?" Bree takes a deep breath, as she tells him, holding his hand "She's really gotten bad on the drinking. She only goes to Jackson Inc, and maybe a few places, but mainly home in that study drinking." Paul assures Bree "Gracie's there, and tonight, Country." Bree takes a deep breath, and they call it a night." At Cale and Allison's Home, they lay in bed, as Cale asks his Wife "Wade and Bridget, think it's gonna be over?" Allison tells her Husband, as she turns out the light "Be a good thing for him. But we have our baby to look forward to, and it'll have a playmate since Bree's also expecting." Cale kisses his Wife, and goes "We have it pretty damn good." Allison answers "Yes we do.", as they go to sleep. Back at Hell Hill, Beth walks around her Son and Daughter in Law's bedroom, as she yells "Taking too damn long and I want to go home so finish up!" Gracie walks inside, and runs upstairs, as the man walks out of the bathroom, and tells Beth "I'm not leaving town." Beth answers "Oh hell yes you are." Leigh walks out of the closet with a suitcase, as Beth tells her fiercely, and coldly "Take your ass downstairs, out that door, and stay away from my Son. I'm calling the shots around here now you sorry whore.." Gracie runs inside, and screams with rage and tears "How could you Mom! How could you do this to my Daddy?" Beth hugs her Granddaughter, and goes "And this man she's having sex with is the same man that did what we discussed to Ava that created Jack as a result, and the woman you see today, Aaron Pittman, professional piece of shit and rapist." Leigh attempts to walk up in Beth's face, as Beth flashes her pistol, and as Gracie runs downstairs in tears upon what she's seen, and texts her Brother, as he sits in his hotel room and informs him, he loads his pistol with rage in his eyes, as Brock says to himself "Well looks like Dad's about to be real proud of his Son." Back at Hell Hill, Leigh gets her suitcase, and warns Beth, as Aaron follows behind and goes "You can stay with me." Beth answers "Good. And it's over for you Leigh Woods. Tonight, you just wrote your own death certificate, and did the ultimate of ultimates when it comes to the unforgivable. Get out of this home, and I am sure Xavier will finalize that divorce now, but you are about to lose your ass and I will make your days in this town until the day I die a living hell for you! So get out!" Leigh and Aaron heads downstairs, as Beth follows, with her safety off, yet walking behind with pistol in hand. Gracie sits in the living room, as she cries uncontrollably, and Leigh attempts to walk over to her, as Gracie looks at her Mother with disappointment, and Beth screams "Get the hell away from her and leave!" Beth pushes Leigh out, and throws her suitcase out the door, and slams the door, as she consoles her Granddaughter. At Sully's Mansion, Sully and Henry are in bed, as they sleep, and the doorbell rings, and Sully wakes up, and walks downstairs, as she opens, and finds Xavier, as he cries uncontrollably, and tells his Oldest Daughter "I have nothing now Princess. How? How could she do this to me.." Sully holds her Father, and asks "What is it Daddy?" Xavier answers "Your Mother has slept with another man in the bed we shared in my family home." Sully holds her Father, as they both hurt, and as her Father cries, Sully cries silently with disappointment in her eyes.
A fictional serial set in the Southeastern City of Adam's Landing, and The Jackson, Sullivan, Hale, and Evans Families.
