 Rating out of five: 4 After their latest foul-up, Tabitha and her living doll, Timmy, decided to leave Harmony once and for all, but they were interrupted (again) by Grace. She came to collect anything Tabitha would have for the Police Charity they were holding that day. Of course the concerned neighbor asked about Grace's niece, the sole survivor of the Castleton fire. Grace said she's doing okay, but is still in shock and has amnesia. Naturally, this caused much delight for the witch who realized maybe staying in Harmony wasn't such a bad idea after all, since Charity wouldn't remember about evil and her powers against it. Not only was Tabitha wrong, Charity was talking in her coma-like state – saying "Miguel" and even whispered "Evil." Tabitha decided maybe she could have a little fun and do away with the brat as soon as possible. But Timmy finally wanted to have some fun of his own as he secretly tagged along. Upon arrival at the hospital, Timmy found some scrubs and acted as if he owned the ER. Meanwhile Tabitha tried sneaking in Charity's room to stab her with a little needle..but Kay's brat face sister was standing guard. Oh drat! If it isn't one Bennett it's another, Apparently basketball coaches all of a sudden, Hank and Luis were helping out at the Youth Center coaching basketball to Miguel, who finally had left his girlfriend's beside – orders of Dr. Eve Russell. Sheridan, still putting in her community service, decided maybe it was time for the girl's to learn about basketball, but Luis thought that was a bad idea, since he still considers her a spoiled snob. But despite all that, they challenged each other to a game of one-on-one. Sheridan lost – of course! But later she sought help from a professional in hopes of impressing the cop. Ivy and Julian however attended the police flea market, since Ivy knew Sam Bennett was going to be there. Awww….that's so sweet…Julian of course became suspicious of his wife's motives – not like he should care anyway, but whatever. Eve, who's secret past is somehow connected to Julian (read on to find out my theory), ran into Mr. Crane and shuddered just thinking about him. Meanwhile T.C. knew his bud Sammy knew Ivy from his past, but swore he would never tell Eve or Grace the truth. (Don't you love how everyone hates the Cranes, but it all seems to be so secretive?) Grace finally met Ivy and was star-struck immediately. Of course she didn't realize her hubby was also struck…Pilar, also there (God, I love these group scenes!!!!) sensed a trouble brewing as she saw Ivy's behavior towards her old secretive fling. Ivy of course tried to make good with Sam's wife, but Sam wanted nothing to do with Ivy anymore (at least that's what he says). Eve wants nothing to do with Julian or Ivy. T.C. wants nothing to do with Julian. Sam wants nothing to do with Ivy or Julian. Ivy asks if they would all join her for dinner. "Us?" "Dinner?" "Tonight?" Eve, T.C. and Sam ask. Grace says, "We would love to!" The other three shout out, "I can't!!!!!!" (I'm sorry, I had to include that little bit; that was the funniest scene this show has ever seen so far.) Chad Harris, the newest Harmony resident, traveled from L.A. in search clues to his family's origin, due to the fact that he found an old newspaper from Harmony with his name written on it. Well, apparently both parents are dead, so it is up to him to discover his true roots. (Personally, I feel he is Eve's son – he's old enough that she would have had him before Whitney – but I also hear he's to fall in love with both Russell girls, so this would somehow bring the truth forward. Now Julian may be involved either by having once raped Eve or forced her to give up the child – but definitely he's involved with Chad's past, 'cuz Chad "knew he wasn't related to the Cranes" after reading about them in the recent Harmony Herald upon his arrival in the fishing community.) Kay and Simone were busy debating on whether or not Miguel would someday be hers. But of course she wouldn't want to be left in the wings and so Simone hoped Kay would never have a chance with Miguel. But Kay swore she would find Simone the right man…Meanwhile, Kay's apparent "right man" picked up a ring that she was eyeing and fitted it on her finger. Ah dreams can come true – but alas, it was not meant for Kay – it was the comatose Charity's gift. (Ha, ha, Devil Woman – you lose!) But looks like Kay got the last laugh as they all rushed over to the hospital after Jessica Bennett revealed her cousin was waking up. And just as Miguel entered the room she screamed in fear. (Oh, come on, Charity. I know how you feel, his acting scares me too, doesn't mean you need to be so loud…) Back at the Crane estate, Ethan asks Theresa if she would like her job back at as Ivy's personal secretary. Of course, she accepts, but Gwen Hotchkiss, Ethan's rich girlfriend, just can't help but to be ticked off. I mean, it was one thing catching a mousy nerd in Ethan's bed, but now she knows the nerd is actually a young attractive woman who obviously has stolen Ethan's heart, even if it is for a second or too. Meanwhile Pilar makes a visit to warn Ivy to call off the dinner date with the Bennetts and the Russells and leave the past behind. (First of all, you don't think she could be talking about Sam, do you? And second of all, is Pilar a hypocrite or what? Martin Fitzgerald has been gone all these years and she still manages to have faith he'll return someday…although, it's a soap, of course he'll make an appearance soon!) Miguel befriends a stranger, Chad Harris. He learns he doesn't know much about his family and he dropped out of school to become a rock star. Miguel tells him how his girlfriend, Charity is in the hospital. The two quickly bond over how crappy their lives have turned out. Later, Simone catches a glimpse of her dream man - Chad Harris. He's interested in a coat at the police flea market. Apparently, it's freezing in Harmony. I don't know…personally, I think Faith might have a different outlook on things…that it, if she's still alive… |
