Dirty Dancing

Billie tells Bo they will know for sure Georgia is alive if the DNA tests match.

"Or she was alive," says Bo.

Billie just knows the DNA will match. Hope tells them she hopes they will not be disappointed.

Patrick and Chelsea Dirty Dance. Abby says Chelsea is asking for major trouble as she watches. She flashes back to Chelsea showing her the drugs she put into Patrick's drink. "What if Chelsea gets caught," she asks, "I hope she knows what she is getting into."

Patrick tells Chelsea she is beautiful. Chelsea says, "You're so totally hot." He's so totally doped. He looks at Chelsea and says, "Jennifer." They share a hot kiss. Abby nearly faints as she watches outside.

John tells Kate, "This would never have happened if Marlena were here. I should have made sure Belle was over Shawn before she married Phillip. But here I am whining bout being a lousy father and you're worried sick about whether Phillip is alive."

Kate knows that she has to be strong but she feels weak and afraid, "Please God let my son be alive." John and Kate hug.

Jan tells Mimi, "Call it blackmail, but I'm not the one who had the abortion." She reminds Mimi Phillip is MIA.

Mimi says, "Don't say that."

"I'm just being realistic. Belle will be distraught and she won't be with Shawn. And you will see to that unless you want me to tell Rex the truth."

Belle tells Shawn Phillip wanted her to be happy. How can she break her wedding vows now? She says, "We can't be together. You have to leave."

"I'm not leaving you. Not now, not ever."

Billie tells Hope she is leaving. Bo comes up to Hope and asks where Billie is. Hope tells him she has left. Bo asks why.

Chelsea and Patrick continue to dirty-dance in the Cheatin' Heart. She pulls out a slip of paper and hands it to him. It's her phone number. She tells him her name is Angelica.

Patrick leaves Chelsea and goes into the back room. He accuses Eddie of drugging him. Eddie denies it and reminds Patrick of the debt he owes him.

Chelsea goes back for more Patrick.

Mimi calls Jan evil. She flashes back to finding the cage. Jan tells Mimi the cage thing is a fascinating story. She suggests Mimi can "send it in to one of those teen magazines." Mimi says when Shawn figures out what happened he will leave Jan. Shawn may be with Jan awhile. He isn't too good at figuring things out since he left half his brain out on the highway. Jan reminds Mimi when Rex finds out about the abortion, he will leave Mimi.

Shawn tells Belle he loves her. She insists they can't be together. I'm having total déjà vu. Is this a flashback or real? On we go with the same old conversation. She finally tells him to leave and not come back.

John and Kate cuddle as they rehash Phillip, Belle, John's pain and all the rest. Kate has to go tell Lucas the news about Phillip. She leaves. John huff-grunts and reaches for his stash, "Damn pain keeps me locked in his bed. I gotta get outta here."

Bo asks Hope why Billie left. Hope says she is not Billie's keeper. Hope heard the techs say Billie was headed to the Cheatin' Heart. Bo has to go get her before she gets into trouble. Hope goes with him. Personally, I'd let her get into all the trouble she could find and enjoy the accommodations of the Salem Police department.

"Angelica" invites Patrick to dance again. Abby watches. She hides as Billie goes into the bar and sees Patrick dancing with "that tramp." The bartender asks if she has punched any cops lately. Billie says she came to ask him a favor. She wants him to ask the cop to drop the charges against her, "If you help me, it would be good for the bar - if it goes to trial the Cheatin' Heart will get bad publicity." The bartender promises to help.

Patrick and Angelica dirty dance. Patrick sees Billie and leaves to talk to her. Angelica is peeved.

Billie asks how many he has had.

Chelsea goes outside with Abby. She says, "Look at that. She's holding him up. She better keep her hands off my guy or I will get her into serious trouble."

Billie hauls Patrick over to a barstool. Outside Chelsea threatens to drug Billie's soda.

Bo and Hope come in. Things are getting too hot for Abby. She says she is going home. Chelsea asks how she will explain to her mom that she didn't spend the night with Chelsea.

Bo tells Lockhart to lay off Billie, "Stay the hell away from her." Patrick stares though glassy eyes.

Mimi tells Belle "You love Phillip, you married him. The Marines will do everything they can and Rex is monitoring the search on the Internet." He Googled, "Guy with bad haircut gets captured by creeps." Belle says she told Shawn she didn't want to see him any more. Mimi says, "That's good."

Belle whines, "But I just don't want to break Shawn's heart too. What should I do, keep him out of my life?"

Shawn gets home and Jan is there. He wants to know why. "Because I am in love with you. Why are you home? Belle is so stupid. She threw you out, didn't she? I would never do that." Shawn says he doesn't want to be with her. Jan says he just thinks he doesn't. She believes he will remember all the love she felt for him. Shawn grabs his head. Part of his missing brain is making an appearance. Jan asks what's wrong. Shawn remembers the cage, "I know what you did to me."

Patrick just about falls over. Bo asks Billie why she is hanging around with this loser. Patrick says he was drugged. He thinks it was the guys he played poker with. Bo isn't buying it. Bo asks for the glass Patrick's drink was in so he can test it for foreign substances. Unfortunately, the glass has already been cleared away.

John talks to the drugs, "I can't just lie here while Phillip is God knows where." He flashes back to the fight with Stami. John starts to take a pill. Kate walks into the room, "What are you doing?" Busted!

Shawn says he keeps having these memories of being shackled to a bed in a cage. Jan says, "Kinky. We can do that if you want, Shawn. Why are you rejecting a woman who only wants to make you happy for a woman who only wants her husband? People change. You don't belong with Belle. Her parents are professionals. Yours are blue-collar cops. She can't tell Phillip the marriage is over because she isn't sure it is. Can you honestly say Belle loves you more than I do?" Shawn stares.

Belle isn't sure she is doing the right thing. Mimi thinks she needs to follow her instincts. Belle thanks Mimi. They hug. Mimi rolls her eyes. So do I. Mimi asks what Belle will do if Phillip is missing for a long time, "Then what if Phillip was rescued and came home a hero? I can see the headlines. Hero reunites with wife. Would you be able to break Phillips heart and tell him you want to be with Shawn?" Belle stares.

Hope says there is no reason to believe Patrick is lying. Bo says they have to go back to the hospital. Billie says she and Bo have a family that doesn't have anything to do with Hope. Hope asks how Patrick is getting home. His car. Hope won't let him.

Outside, Chelsea sees Patrick talking to Hope, "I can't believe he's hanging around all these old women. Who's next, Alice Horton?"

Patrick thanks Hope for believing him.

Reality collapses. The lab calls Billie in the middle of the night, not to tell her the tests are complete, but to tell her the results will be in soon.

"You're supposed to be in bed," says Kate, "I caught you getting up." John says he has already been out of bed and got some water. The last thing she needs to do is play nursemaid to him. She says if she could go over there with an AK-47 and find Phillip she would. You know, as mean as Kate can be, she might just win the war all by herself.

Kate tells John Lucas didn't take the news very well. She says, "With one of Salem's soldiers missing, this will be all over the news. There will probably be satellite trucks in front of the loft."

John tells her he's going to do everything he can to bring Phillip back. Kate is proud of the way he has hung tough through the recovery. He can't afford a relapse now.

"That's not gonna happen. I promise." Kate leaves. John contemplates his pill.

"Now that I've been kissed by Patrick, I'll never feel the same way," says Chelsea.

"Since when are you Patrick's keeper," asks Bo. Patrick thanks Hope. Bo asks why he said that. For believing in him. Bo says the DNA results will be in soon.

Billie gets a call. Kate says she needs to see Billie in person. Billie tells her about the lock of hair. Kate says, "Oh this could be the thing that gets you together as a couple." They arrange to meet at the hospital. Kate goes back into John's room. He's fine. She tells him she's leaving.

"I can't live like this any more. I have to get strong again." He pops the pill.

"Look at the facts," says Jan, "I'm here for you. Where is Belle? She's not here with you. You can't ignore reality. She sent you away. I love you too much to be objective." Shawn stares.

Mimi asks how Belle would feel if the media was in her face. If she gets involved with Shawn while Phillip is MIA the media will have a field day. Belle says that's why she has to stay away from Shawn and concentrate on bringing Phillip home. Shawn will just have to understand. Belle says her mama used to tell her, "Life doesn't always give you what you want. What you do with what you are given is the true test of character." She tells Mimi, "I have to do what is right even if it means risking future with Shawn."

Belle and Shawn appear in separate screen shots. Jan tells Shawn, "I know it hurts, but Belle just doesn't love you enough to be with you." FFWO on Shawn and Belle.


Previews
========

Jack tells Jennifer, "As soon as I call the police, I'm taking you upstairs to that bedroom..." Jennifer says, "I have one more surprise in store for you."

Bo tells Hope the tests will be in soon and then they can take care of Shawn. Hope says, "You're putting a child who may not even exists in front of your own son."

Belle tells Shawn, "I have to be strong for Phillip. You have to leave.

PHillip says, "I will always be with you in your heart, loving you and protecting you for all the Days of Your Life."

Rex Googling for "a guy with bad hair, getting captured by creeps", that ought to work, right? HAHAHA

I just re-read the Prevuze for today's show. My question - even if Patrick's glass was gone, he could have gone to the hospital with the rest of them and had his blood tested for drugs? Too logical I suppose.

That was my favorite observation, too, about Googling for info! :}

I was wondering if it's occurred to Phillip yet that his captors are speaking with British accents. Wouldn't this immediately stand out to someone expecting to be captured by Middle Eastern soldiers?
