Friday, 6 February 2009Brooke surprises Adam in his office with the news that Bianca is in critical condition after falling from JR's hotel room balcony and that JR was in the room with her at the time. Adam is shocked.
Brooke then lets him know that she is determined to get to the bottom of things and find out what Adam is keeping from her but Adam stubbornly refuses to tell her anything unless she provides him with information on where Liza has taken Colby.
Brooke isn't intimidated. She tells Adam that unless he cooperates with her, she will become his worst nightmare. She reminds him that she is the owner and editor of Tempo Magazine and she will use every means at her disposal to uncover "every speck of dirt and dust bunny" that he has hidden beneath is priceless Oriental rug.
Adam seems unfazed until she threatens to investigate JR as well. Seeing the look of almost panic that crosses his face, Brooke quickly realizes that she has struck a nerve. That Adam is worried that maybe JR is responsible for Bianca's fall. Adam threatens her that she's gone too far when she gives voice to her observation.
This time it's Brooke who seems unfazed by the threat. She warns him that he has 48 hours to comply with her demand for information or she will begin publishing front page articles on Bianca's fall and will continue to do so every single day for as long as it takes until the police realize that JR might have had something to do with Bianca falling from the balcony.
Monday, 9 February 2009Shortly after Babe and Jamie arrive at their latest hiding spot, Babe confides to Jamie that she's feeling guilty for having kept Bianca and Miranda apart for so long.
They also wonder if either Tad or Bianca have told JR yet that his son James is alive. Just then Tad appears in the doorway and tells them that he hasn't told JR anything but he is careful not to mention Bianca's fall until Babe leaves to go to a nearby store for some baby supplies.
Once alone, he fills Jamie in on what happened after they fled with James. Jamie isn't wholly convinced that JR didn't push Bianca, causing her fall because of how he was earlier that evening in the warehouse with Jamie. Tad admits that until that night he had been cutting JR some slack because he is Dixie's son but no more.
He also confides that he suspects that deep down inside JR knows the truth about Bess but that the Chandler influence was too strong and he would hold onto her tight with both hands before admitting she wasn't his daughter.
After Babe returns, she asks Tad not to hate Krystal for what she has done in support of Babe. Tad assures her that he doesn't hate Krystal and in fact can understand her motivation.
He then spends a few minutes holding a sleeping James, bonding with him and telling him about how his grandmother Dixie was his guardian angel and looking out for him. Before leaving, Tad and Jamie say a tearful goodbye.
Tuesday, 10 February 2009Greenlee is ready to get out of the hospital and get back to work, as well as reconnect with her father. Ryan's main concern, however, is getting her back to being 100%. He then tells her some good news: when he was out and about in the hospital, he ran into Ashford and was able to get him to approve her release. Greenlee is ecstatic, and wants to leave that second.
Ryan slows her down by telling her that they still have some paperwork to fill out, but that they will be out of there as soon as possible. To pass the time while they are waiting, Greenlee asks her husband who could have drugged her. She figured out already that he probably has a fairly short list - and she wants him to give her his best guess.
Ryan tells her about going over to Kendall's place and confronting Ethan, but Zach showed up and Ethan turned the blame from himself to him. Greenlee thinks she may have given Kendall a reason to poison her because Greenlee tried to run her over with a car.

Wednesday, 11 February 2009Jackson visits Bianca and tries to keep his spirits high. He tells her that he needs her to get well to help her mother decorate the Christmas tree.

Jackson goes to find Greenlee and check on her. Maria touches Bianca's hand and tells her that everyone is pulling for her to recover. Zach comes in and asks Maria what he can do to help Bianca.

Kelly starts to break down and Babe lets her hold the baby and tells her the story about the night he was born.
Kelly wonders how Babe could have stolen him back and asks if the girl was Bianca's. Kelly reminds her that Babe did exactly what Kelly did in keeping a baby from its mother. Babe admits she'd been wrong but Kelly says at least she thought her baby's mother was homeless and didn't want the baby.

Adam later is overcome with guilt after JR thanks him for his support. Brooke's concern about Jamie gets the best of her, but Edmund is there for comfort. She attacks Tad when he tells her the whole truth and nothing but the truth about the babies and admits that there's a chance that Jamie will never return to Pine Valley.
Anita arrives on the scene, where he is able to calm Lily, who becomes enthralled with him. He gives a veiled threat to Autumn, Chantal and China, implying that Lily is somehow working for the government.

Thursday, 19 February 2009David continues to try to get on to a better side of Erica, saying that he has seen cases like Bianca's before, and that he believes she will pull out of it and get better. Erica promises that she will make sure that happens, as she has plans to give her daughter the one kind of medicine that she needs.
David offers to help, and says that the more information he has, the better help he can provide. Only listening to about half of the sentence, Jack cuts David off and tells him he won't get to know any more than he already does. David continues to try to block everyone out but Erica, and tells her that he truly does care for Bianca.
That's the last straw for Erica.
She tells him he has made it perfectly obvious how much he cares for Bianca, and now he needs to go. Erica asks Ryan to go in to see Bianca, in hopes that will help her hang on. When he does, they all comment how time seems to be dragging by so slowly while they are waiting for the DNA results.
Tad says that at any moment, Adam could tell JR what he did with Miranda - or worse, JR could figure it out himself.
Friday, 20 February 2009Zach and Maria talk about Bianca's condition in the hall. Maria admits that Bianca is getting worse and worse and there is nothing that can be done. Zach tells her that people come out of coma's all the time, but Maria says that every situation is different.
She tells him that Bianca doesn't have a living will, and soon (with her numbers dropping the way they are), Erica will have to decide whether or not to put her daughter on a ventilator. Once that happens, there is no telling how long Bianca could hold on.
Zach tells her that Bianca is fierce and he has no doubt that she will definitely come out of it. Maria says that the knowledge of Bianca's strength is exactly why she is worried. If she saw evidence of that fight, that drive that lives inside Bianca, they wouldn't be talking about her condition.
Instead, Maria believes that what Bianca needs is a reason to live - and that's something she can't give to her. She concludes that the worst isn't over - it's coming down the pike head on.
Monday, 23 February 2009A bit later, Greenlee joins her husband in Bianca's room and they tell her about all of the people there to support her.

Then, Maria goes into Bianca's room, looks at the monitors and quickly asks Ryan and Greenlee to leave. Outside, Zach is staring through the window. '
