Death Takes A Holiday
Kayla thanks Patch for coming out with her to celebrate Independence Day. She feels strange celebrating the Fourth in Salem without a big Horton BBQ where Jack can amaze everyone by grilling his hand. Patch is as confused as a rookie viewer about who's who in Wacko-Land... er, Salem. Kayla assures him when he gets his memory back it will all seem simple, “And if we're lucky, maybe that will happen today.”
“How so,” asks the curious cyclops.
“Come with me.”
Jack tells Jennifer she shouldn't be playing nursemaid on the Fourth of July. She says she is perfectly happy to be there and suggests bringing the grill upstairs so Jack can BBQ his hand right there in the bedroom.
Frankie busts in, “That's weak. I say we get outta here and really celebrate.”
Speaking of grilling, Abby grills the brat about Max. She says she's not having second thoughts about turning him down. Besides she just wants to celebrate Independence day... her independence. “Let's do it,” says Max.
Carrie tells Austin, “I'm going to tell you the truth.” She flashes back to her relationship death-sentence from Dr. Slut. Austin wants to know what she is talking about. “About why we can't be together,” she whispers.
Sami approaches Hester, uh, Lexie and wants to know why she hasn't returned her call. Lexie says, “I have nothing to say to you.”
“I want to know what's going on here,” says Sami, “Why didn't you tell everyone the truth when you had the chance? Are you just biding your time?” You're going to choose the most humiliating moment to tell everyone, aren't you – you're going to tell everyone at Carrie and Lucas' wedding tomorrow. You have to tell me what's going on right now.”
“The truth is...,” says Carrie, “...that you belong with Sami.” Viewers all over the world throw rotten tomatoes at their TV sets.
“What about you?”
“I'm marrying Lucas tomorrow. We're having a baby. I can't have this conversation again. But I will. You need to move on.”
Sami badgers Dr. Ho, “Are you just waiting for the wedding to tell everyone?”
“If only I could,” she whispers.
“What does that mean,” asks Sami. Lexie tells Sami she isn't planning to drop the bomb at the wedding. She tries to leave, but Sami stops her and says she wants to know the real reason Lexie didn't tell everyone the truth. Lexie flashes back to her conversation with The Hand and tells Sami she doesn't owe her an explanation. “You have to let me know,” says Sami, “Is Carrie all of a sudden going to decide she wants to be with Austin tomorrow?”
“She does belong with Austin,” yells Lexie, “You forced me to push her away from him!”
“Abe knows the truth about your latest affair,” says Sami, “Why are you covering for me?”
Kate comes up and says, "So the two of you are hiding something."
Max practically begs the little skank to go out with him. The brat is coy. Abby asks why she is giving him such a hard time. The brat tells her to butt out. Max wants to be “official” by tomorrow so they can go to the big wedding as a couple.
“And the next thing,” says the brat, “is you will want us to be walking down the aisle. Max considers the possibilities and runs into the bathroom and hurls.
Jennifer tells Frankie they can't leave Jack. Frankie tells her he wants to take Jack with them, “Did you see Weekend at Bernie's? Besides, I already checked with Lexie and she says it's just fine as long as Jack takes his meds and doesn't overdo it.”
Jack agrees, “Frankie – you da man. We'll call it, 'Death Takes A Holiday.'”
Patch and Kayla admire the scene at the pier. Kayla tells him the pier and boats have a special memory for them. Jack says he knows. He remembers what she told him about their wedding. Flashback. Patch says his ramblin' vows, “I don't have much, baby... but what I have is yours, and I will spend all the Days Of Our Lives lining up to the faith you have in me. I'm yours.”
“Backacha,” says Kayla, or something to that effect.
So that's why Kayla thought coming here might trigger something. This is where they spent their first Fourth of July with Stephanie. More flashback. Baby makes three. “I got the baby to stop crying,” says Patch.”
“You remembered,” squeals Kayla.”
Austin takes out his frustration on a punching bag and remembers Carrie telling him he needs to move on. He visualizes a wedding. The minister tells him to kiss the bride. He lifts the veil and tells the mystery bride, “You made the right choice. You'll never regret it.”
He snaps out of it and says, “OK, Reed, I know what you have to do.”
Sami wants to know how long Kate has been standing there. Long enough to know something is going on. Kate wants to know what it is. Sami insists she already knows. Kate ain't buying it. “I don't have time for this,” says Sami as she storms off.
“All right,” says Kate, “It's just the two of us now. Lexie, what's going on.”
“If you want to know, talk to Sami.”
Lexie walks away. Carrie comes up to her, “I need to talk. I feel so confused.”
“I'm glad things are getting back to normal for you,” says Lexie.
Carrie tells her she can't stop thinking about the dreaded genetic marker. Kayla grasps at straws. She thinks when Patch finally sees Stephanie he is sure to remember, even though she's an adult.
“If I am her daddy, I hope she doesn't resent me being gone all these years.”
Max and the brat arrive at the festival. He goes to get sodas. She goes over to a guy in the band and asks if he takes requests. “Yeah,” he says, “What's your pleasure.”
“I think I'm looking at it,” says the snot, “You wanna dance later?”
“Why wait 'till later,” says the bad dude in his stylish wife-beater as he stands up. Let the dirty dancing begin! Max watches and seethes as he crawls all over her. What there is of her, anyway.
Jennifer still doesn't think this is a good idea as Jack grabs his meds and is gung-ho to go. He tells her they have to live their lives for today. Frankie leaves the room as Jack tells Jennifer to remember the good times they used to have. If that doesn't call for a flashback marathon, I don't know what does.
Frankie comes back in and so does Abby. Jack says they are going out for the biggest, baddest Fourth of July celebration ever.
Patch bursts Kayla's balloon. He tells her he really didn't remember about the baby. He just took a guess. “I just need a few minutes to get a surprise for Dad,” says Abby, “And thanks to Frankie, it will be even more perfect.” Abby leaves and Jack runs to get his morphine.
Jennifer switches partners without missing a beat. She thanks Frankie for all this, “You are the most incredible man.” Smoochies. Jack walks out and soaks it in.
The menage a Devereaux meets up with Patch and Kayla at the festival. Jack assures Patch they checked with Lexie who said it was OK. Abby and Frankie go off to start the Devereaux burgers.
Jennifer bounces JJ on her knee and tells Kayla she can't believer this will be her last fourth of July together with both of her husbands. But she decides to live for today and think happy thoughts. She assures Kayla Patch will remember her eventually.
Pan in on toothpick-leg dirty dancing. Max runs up in a rage and yanks her away. Frankie runs up and breaks up the potential fight. Mr. Wifebeater says, “You shoulda told me you had a boyfriend.” He leaves.
Max asks the brat, "What the hell is your problem?"
The brat says, "I'm young and I want to have fun."
Max shouts, "You can have all the fun you want from now on. I'm done!"
Abby tells the brat she just lost an amazing guy.
Lexie gives cryin' Carrie a tissue. Carrie didn't mean to imply it was Lexie's fault. She was just doing her job when she told her. Lexie hangs her head in shame. Carrie pours it on as she thanks Lexie for being there for her, “I'm so sorry about what has happened to you and Abe. I just wish I could talk to someone else about this. You know, like a doctor who actually knows something about medicine and who isn't a lying slut If Austin knew about this, I don't think he would accept my decision. And if Lucas knew, he'd think it's the only reason I chose to be with him, which is true, but beside the point I really think it wasn't meant to be with Austin and me. I really want to have a baby of my own. I don't want to bring a baby into this world just to suffer.”
“I don't see how you can avoid that,” says Lexie, “with you as its mother. But before you go any further, there is something very important I need to tell you.”
Kate chases Sami down, “You are lying and Lexie is lying. When I find out, so will Austin. He will find out you are still the same little lying manipulative witch you always have been.”
Austin comes out to referee. He tells Kate to back off. They already know the truth. Kate is going to have to let him live his own life and accept the fact that he and Sami are together. He drags Sami off to celebrate the Fourth of July. Kate makes a face.
Jennifer shoves a Dever-eeeeeuuuuwww burger down JJ's throat.
Abby goes over and tells the brat she has lost her chance with Max forever.
Max drives with a vengeance as we hear the brat's words of rejection echoing in the background. Downshift... SCREECH... An angry Max flings his helmet out the window and gets out of his racecar. He dusts off and inspects the damage. Then he turns and yells, “HEY, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? DO YOU SEE WHAT YOU DID TO MY CAR?”
Mystery driver approaches through the smoke. Mystery driver inspects the damage, turns and takes off her helmet, “Sorry, you got in my way.” Max' jaw hits the floor.
The brat tells Abby she isn't ready to settle down. Max will get over it.
Patch, Kayla and the Devereaux-a-trois ooh and aah at the fireworks.
Sami and Austin arrive. Sami talks about how perfect everything is. They smooch as Kate seethes, “Enjoy your time with Austin, Sami, because when I find out what is going on, there are really going to be fireworks. Your whole world is going to explode right in front of your face.”
Lexie tells Carrie she is serious as she flashes back to her conversation with The Hand. She cops out and tells Carrie she is just having pre-wedding jitters. Carrie thanks her and leaves.
“OMG, what am I doing,” asks Lexie, “How can I let her marry Lucas when I know the man she should be with is Austin?” FF.

Question:
Are Max and mystery gal (Stephanie) driving down the street in their racecars with their helmets on?
Or are they on a racetrack?
Thanks.
As always, great Prevuze. (especially liked the "scrambled eggs" and Max the dog as the gloved hand)
"Are Max and mystery gal (Stephanie) driving down the street in their racecars with their helmets on? Or are they on a racetrack?"
They are on a racetrck.
Am I the only one who finds "Devereaux-a-trois" (love the title) just a little sick???
Loved the hand identity.
The Dever-a-trois is repulsive.
Jack from the early 90s late 80s would NOT have behaved this way.
Remember the way he said "Francoise" whenever addressing Frankie, just to aggravate him?
We shouldn't be surprised at the reveal that The Hand is Max (the Dog). He's the only intelligent one in this bunch!! HAHAHA
Loved the picture of Max (the Idiot) and the explanation of why he continues to chase after The Toothpick.
And speaking of the "dirty dancing" segments, where the heck did all the "stylish wife-beater" descriptions come from regarding the loser Chelsea was dancing with?? This SB'er needs an explanation. ;-)
"where the heck did all the "stylish wife-beater" descriptions come from regarding the loser Chelsea was dancing with??"
The loser is wearing what is known as a wife-beater. A white sleveless undershirt. Since one picture is worth a thousand words, you'll have to check out his attire when the show feeds tomorrow.
So, what were Prevuze's first impression of Stephanie Kay Johnson? Judging from the few seconds of tomorrow's preview, she already seems somewhat like an arrogant bitch to me.

Like DOOL needs another one?? OH NO!!
