Wiener Schnitzel and Hasen Pheffer

Belle comes down thinking it's Phillip at the door. Instead, it's Mimi. Phillip has gone to the hospital for a prosthesis adjustment. Mimi is there at Phillip's instruction to keep Belle company.

Belle freaks, "Does my husband think I'm so messed up I can't take care of my own child?" Your husband and everyone else in Salem.

Lucas can't find his lucky pen. Eugenia finds it in his pocket. She accuses Lucas of being nervous. He denies it, but says this is a big presentation. Lucas wants to prove to Victor he's worth every cent Victor is paying him. Eugenia tells Lucas he's bound to succeed especially since he's "competing with Austin, Nicole and that bitch Sami." Lucas says he doesn't want Eugenia talking about Sami like that.

There is a knock at Lucas' office door. Eugenia opens the door. Lucas thinks it's Schnitzel, but it turns out to be Billie. Lucas asks, "Billie, what the hell are you doing here?"

Billie says, "Trying to stop you from making a huge mistake."

Nicole and Austin prepare their presentation. Nicole tells him they work well together, "Which is why I don't' understand why you keep Sami around. What she did could cost us this account. I think you should fire her."

Austin insists, "I'm not going to."

Nicole says, "At least she won't be there for this presentation. If she doesn't learn her lesson, you can kiss your new company goodbye."

They leave. Sami comes out and vows to find some way to get back on Austin's good side.

Marlena wants to resolve things once and for all. Alex/Roman says, "I think I speak for all of us when I say we will all abide by your decision."

"I think I can speak for myself," snorts John/Roman. He asks for a word with Marlena in private, "Whomever you decide to spend your life with, there is one name you need to take into consideration."

Kate tells Chris/Roman, "Well, you must be nervous."

"Kate," he says, "If that's your way of asking if I hope Marlena chooses me... Then the answer is yes. I have always loved Marlena."

"When we were married I knew you loved her," says Kate, "I think if the baby had lived and she hadn't lost her memory you would be with her right now."

Chris/Roman says, "And if Marlena chooses me or Alex/Roman I'm sure you hope you can be with John/Roman."

John/Roman tells Marlena Alex/Roman has done nothing but put doubt in her mind. She can't possibly consider being with him.

"Marlena, don't listen to him," says Alex/Roman.

Belle thinks Phillip sent Mimi to baby-sit her. Mimi says Phillip didn't mean anything bad by sending her to be with Belle. Bipolar Belle softens. Mimi says she was actually on her way over when she ran into Phillip. She missed her goddaughter.

Belle asks if Mimi is feeling OK about being around the baby. Mimi says yes and asks Belle's forgiveness for the way she acted, "I want to stop dwelling on the past and dwell on what we do have, like you and our friendship. And I have a new goddaughter I can spoil... AND I have a date tonight with Shawn." Bipolar Belle reacts.

Sami goes through papers so she can help Austin, but doesn’t' understand what they say. She gets up and finds Nicole's nightie. She thinks Nicole will stop at nothing to get Austin. She takes a pair of scissors and cuts it to shreds, "Lucas and Austin both will be sorry they ever left me."

Billie is there to tell Lucas he can't go into the meeting with Hans Schnitzel without her. Lucas protests. Billie says Countess Wilhelmina is her company. She should be in on the pitch. And she's heard Austin is competing with Lucas. Lucas says he has everything covered.

Billie asks, "Did you know Dr. schnitzel is eccentric? AND he has an eye for the ladies. If I know Austin he will have Nicole in on the presentation. So you need me even if it's just for my pretty face."

"So what am I, chopped liver," asks Eugenia.

A knock at the door. Enter the great Dr. Schnitzel. Lucas introduces Billie. Schnitzel kisses her hand. Schnitzel introduces his assistant Hasen Pheffer.

Lucas introduces Eugenia. Another hand kiss.

Austin and Nicole bust in. Austin introduces Nicole. Lucas wants to know what they are doing there. Schnitzel thought it would be good to combine the presentations. "May the best man and woman win," says Schnitzel.

Sami dinks coffee and sits on a park bench to read her tabloid. It's much more interesting than those silly business documents. She finds her horoscope, "A boost to your business life may come form an unlikely source. A stranger holds the key to your success."

Lulu sits next to her. Sami wonders if this is the stranger. She compliments lulu's jewelry. Lulu tells her Sami just needs to find a man who will spoil her and she can have it too.

The big confab starts. Austin flips to see who presents first. Lucas calls tails. Heads. Austin wins. Lucas and crew leave. In the hallway they bicker. Eugenia thinks Billie should throw on a little makeup before the presentation. When Billie leaves Eugenia tells Lucas the best way to win is to cheat. She turns on the speakerphone.

Mimi tells Belle she doesn't know if she and Shawn are really dating. She decides tonight is an official date. Mimi says they plan to go to a movie and then over to Zeo's for pizza. Belle mentions Zeo's was her and Shawn's favorite pizza place. But she doesn’t go there any more. Too many memories. "I need you to be honest," says Mimi, "Is our dating going to be a problem with you?"

Kate says she is aware of John/Roman's feelings for Marlena. Chris/Roman says, "Marlena's decision could be something neither of us wants to hear."

Marlena assures John/Roman she wouldn't make this decision lightly. John/Roman reiterates Alex/Roman has been lying to her. He also wants her to forget about Kate and Chris/Roman, "You will have and always have had my love."

"John/Roman, I might not remember it, but I have never doubted your love," says Marlena.

"Did you ever doubt mine, Doc," says Chris/Roman, "We had two children together. Our third might have died but the love that created those children never did." Barf.

Alex/Roman steps in, "You know how I feel about you. You are holding the proof in your hands."

Marlena says, "Alex/Roman is right."

John/Roman says, "OMG! Don't tell me you're choosing him." Marlena cries.

Lucas and Eugenia listen in through the speakerphone. Billie comes back and they stop listening. Austin's presentation ends. Lucas and Billie go inside.

Nicole pours a cup of coffee and says it tastes lousy. She asks Eugenia to go for a fresh pot. Eugenia protests. Nicole heads for the door and says, "Well, we'll just ask Lucas if he thinks it would be all right if you went." Eugenia relents. Once she leaves, Nicole starts to listen in on the speakerphone but Austin stops her, "If we are going to win, it will be fair and square."

Nicole tells him they have to listen in; this is no time to be fair. Austin stares.

Lulu tells Sami her fiancée is her old boss, "Do what I did. Stop trying to get ahead by playing nice. Find the boss with the most money and go get him. I used to be a secretary just like you. But I get better benefits now."

Sami insists, "I'm not a secretary, I'm a partner."

Lulu asks, "Do you bring coffee to the other partners?

"Well... yes."

"Then you're a secretary," says Lulu. She introduces herself as Lulu Wiener and asks Sami, "Are you OK?"

Sami says, "My future is about to come true." That was either very deep or very shallow, I don't know which. I mean, is it possible for your future NOT to come true?

Marlena is sorry but she has chosen Alex/Roman. John/Roman and Chris/Roman can't believe it. John/Roman says this is a result of the brainwashing.

"Alex/Roman loves me and I know I loved him. I have proof right here," Marlena hands John/Roman the papers.

Belle says she's OK with Mimi and Shawn being together. She just doesn’t want the two of them to rush into anything. Mimi asks if Belle thinks this is a rebound relationship. Belle doesn't know. Mimi asks, "Are you talking about Shawn and me or Shawn and you? I'm sorry Belle, are you saying you made a mistake marrying Phillip and having his baby when you are still in love with Shawn?" No. Coming to a decision like that would require intelligence.

"That was really harsh," says Belle, "You accused me of not loving my own husband. What Shawn and I had was wonderful but it's been over a long time. You still have feelings for Rex. Shawn wanted me to leave my husband but I couldn't. I'm fine, but I'm very emotional right now. I don't want to fight."

Claire cries. Mimi asks if she can go take care of her. Belle is all to glad to delegate that responsibility. Mimi leaves. Belle sniffles, "Mimi and Shawn... how could this be happening?"

Nicole tells Austin now isn’t the time to play nice. Eugenia comes back. Lucas and Billie come out. I'll says one thing for these companies, at least they don't drag their presentations out. Schnitzel wants to be left alone until he makes his decision. Nicole tells Austin they should buy out Countess Wilhelmina when they win this account.

Billie wants to know what Austin is doing with Sami and Nicole, "They both want you and that doesn’t make a company work well. How would you like to come and work for your little sister?"

"I'd rather be on my own," says Austin, "How about if you came to work for me when my company takes over Titan?"

"I wouldn't count on it," says Lucas.

Schnitzel comes out and announces he has made his decision. They all go back into the conference room. Eugenia listens in.

"Let me get right to the point," says Schnitzel, "After consideration, I have decided to go with the more recognized company – Titan!"

Austin congratulates Lucas and Billie. Suddenly, Sami busts in and says, "You can't sign anything until you hear with I have to say."

Lucas wants to know what she is doing there. Schnitzel asks who she is. No hand kiss. Lucas tells Eugenia to escort her out.

Sami says she thought Schnitzel should discuss this deal with someone he knows. Sami brings Lulu in and introduces her as Hans' fiancée, "the future Lulu Wiener Schnitzel." Schnitzel smoochies.

Mimi comes out and suggests she and Belle work on a scrapbook. Mimi asks whom Belle thinks Claire looks like. Belle says without thinking, "I think she looks like her dad, Shawn." Oops .

The group at the penthouse passes around the set of documents Alex/Roman has given them. "You two were married," asks John/Roman.



Previews
========

Marlena tells Alex, "I want you to tell me everything about our life, from the very beginning, and please don't leave anything out."

Lucas yells at Sami, "You used his girlfriend to pimp your company." Sami smiles, "That's just a celebrity endorsement."

Mimi yells at Belle, "I want you to be honest with me! Regardless of how you feel about Phillip, do you still want Shawn? Tell me the truth so I know how to live my life!"

All of the pictures were LOL worthy today - Eugenia as "the boss", flying Elvii, Belle's drugs kicking in, and especially Bozotox. HAHAHA

I knew the minute Lulu introduced herself that Wiener Schnitzel had to come into play somehow - but Lulu as the good doctor's fiancee is just too much!

Picking Alex because she was married to him is kind of flimsy. Doc was married ton Don Craig, Chris/Roman and John/Roman as well. So why does Alex get the nod??

Glad I could get my day started with Prevuze. Now I know MY future will come true too.
