      Miguel arrived at the Bennette house. Kay opened the door.
      "Miguel!" Kay said with a smile. "What are you doing here?"

      "I came by to check on Charity." Miguel said. Kay rolled her eyes.

      "Grace said that she was having some more premonitions." Miguel said. "She didn't happen to have any about Simone, did she?"

      "I don't think so," Kay said. "I hope we find Simone soon." Kay pretended to cry about Simone. Miguel wrapped her arms around her. Kay smirked when her plan started to work. Kay pulled an unsuspecting Miguel into a kiss! Charity walked into the room.

      "Miguel, Kay, what's going on?" Charity asked, wondering why she kept finding Miguel and Kay kissing together.

      "Charity, I can explain." Miguel said.
 

      Julian and Rebecca arrived at the Crane mansion.

      "I'm so glad to be out of that apartment." Rebecca said.

      "And away from TC." Julian said. "That must have been torture."

      "I can't stand TC as much as he can't stand you," Rebecca said.

      "Julian, thank goodness you're home," Sheridan said.

      "I'm not used to hearing that one," Julian said. Sheridan looked over at Antonio in dread. "Oh, I get it now." Julian said.

      "Oh, Rebecca, Gwen is looking for you." Sheridan said.

      "You're right, I should probably let Gwennie know I'm back at the mansion!" Rebecca said, going upstairs to look for Gwen. Just after Rebecca had walked upstairs, Eve entered the mansion.

      "I didn't expect to see you back here." Julian said. Eve glared at Julian.

      "I just came to get the rest of my things," Eve said, pushing past him.

      "Mother, I've been looking everywhere." Gwen said. "Where have you been these last couple of weeks?"

      "It's a long story," Rebecca said, explaining why she hadn't been at the mansion.

      "I guess this means you and Julian are back together?" Gwen asked.

      "Yeah, I'm back with my pookey." Rehecca said. Gwen and Rebecca heard footsteps approaching and turned around. "What are you doing here?" Rebecca asked.

     "I was just coming to get the rest of my belongings," Eve said.

     "Well, you can cross Julian off of that list because he's mine." Rebecca said. Rebecca smirked as Eve walked into the room and returned with a suitcase.

     "You better have not went near my husband when you two were in the witness protection program." Eve said.

     "Trust me, you never have to worry about that happening." Rebecca said.

     "I'm glad we understand each other," Eve said, turning to leave. Rebecca grabbed her by the arm.

     "Obviously we don't, because from what I heard, you didn't hesitate to move in on my pookey." Rebecca said.

     "That was all the fog's fault." Eve said.

     "Oh, now this is ironic." Rebecca said.

     "What do you mean?" Eve asked.

     "The honest, respectable Dr. Russell is afraid of the truth!" Rebecca said.

     "You're in no place to be talking about the truth, Rebecca." Eve said.

     "You want the truth, Eve, you can't handle the truth!" Rebecca said.

     "What's that supposed to mean?" Eve asked in annoyance.

     "It means you're a liar. You lied to your husband and your daughters but you still expect everyone to worship the ground you walk on." Rebecca said. Eve had enough and slapped Rebecca across the face. "Ow, that hurt!"

     "You and your wacko husband better stay away from my family." Eve said.

     "Your husband is the real wacko, he attacked Julian for oh how many times is this, I've lost count!" Rebecca said.

     "Well, you can add this to the list!" Eve said, her hands reaching for Rebecca's throat. Soon, Eve and Rebecca were strangling each other.

     "Oh my-" Gwen said as Eve and Rebecca had shoved each other down on the floor and were fighting, not seeming to notice the fact that they were still fighting as they tumbled down the stairs.

     "What the hell?" Julian asked.

     "Oh my God, they'll kill each other." Sheridan said. Everyone watched as Rebecca and Eve were still fighting each other. Julian, Gwen, Sheridan and Antonio managed to pry Rebecca and Eve's hands off of each other's throats.

     "What happened?" Julian asked.

     "She started it!" Rebecca and Eve said. Eve grabbed her suitcase.

     "You Cranes really are a family full of savages!" Eve said. "Goodbye!" Eve slammed the door.

     "What happened up there?" Julian asked a furious Rebecca.

     "She accused me of going after her husband, and then had the nerve to blame everything that happened on the stupid fog!" Rebecca said.

     Eve arrived at the Russell house. The door flung open.

"What are you doing here?" Whitney asked.

"I came to help find Simone." Eve said.

"Oh, so now you want to help?" Whitney asked.

"That wasn't fair, Whitney." Eve said.

"Oh, was it fair that-" Whitney stopped midsentence and noticed the mess Eve's hair and clothes were. "Wow, what happened to you? You look like you were in a fight with daddy's weed chopper!"

"Yeah, one named Rebecca Hotchkiss." Eve said.

"So, what happened to loverboy Julian?" Whitney asked.

     "Don't say that name in my presence." Eve said. TC entered the room.

     "What happened to you?" TC asked.

     "TC, what are you doing here?" Eve asked.
