ransom bag. Scott felt betrayed by Lucy after he had learned that she had invited Gail and Lee to see Serena. Scott learned
from the federal agents that the ransom money had been marked. To Frank's chagrin, Chris performed brilliantly in the
emergency room and correctly diagnosed the child's problems. Chris and Julie treated the child, who was soon on his way to

leaving Port Charles and gave her a gift with his phone number and address. After intercepting a call for Scott, Lucy realized
that he planned to take Serena back to Canada soon. A heartbroken Lucy told Kevin that she could not go back to a life
without Serena and then interfered with Scott's plans. Joe and Karen shared a warm moment in the on-call room. Mary told

at the police station. Mary reluctantly told Scott that Frank had given her the stolen money and Scott deduced that it was Eve
who was responsible for the theft. Meanwhile, Lucy took Serena to the park with Lee and also arranged to meet Rex. Lucy
told Lee that it was selfish for Scott to take Serena away, but Lee thought it would be too painful for Scott to stay in Port
Charles. Rex called Danielle and told her to come to the park to begin "Act Two." Serena ran into Danielle at the park and was petrified that Serena would recognize her. Karen railed at Eve for not relying Jagger's message, but later apologized and
explained her martial situation. Karen and Eve continued to talk and reached a level of respect. Karen was glad, and Ellen was
impressed, when Eve correctly diagnosed a patient with suspect symptoms. Eve's joy was quickly deflated when Scott had her
arrested in the Emergency Room.

Tuesday, July 8, 1997 (Episode #27)
Scott confronted Eve about her theft of the ransom money. Eve admitted taking the money, but only after she knew that Serena was safe. Eve explained how the money had accidentally fell into her bag. Scott feigned anger to make Eve squirm, and she
wished she had never met him. Eve was surprised, but not grateful, when Scott did not press charges. Mac learned the ransom
diamonds were being fenced in Hong Kong. Mac agreed with Kevin when he voiced his fears that the kidnappers were not
finished with Serena. Kevin did not want to tell Scott because he was afraid that Scott would leave town with Serena and cut
off contact with Lucy. Kevin also expressed his dislike for Scott's treatment of Lucy and how Scott had disrupted their lives.
After her ordeal with Scott, Eve returned home to find she had been evicted from the Scanlons' basement. Meanwhile, Serena
did not recognize Danielle in the park. Rex met with Lucy and mixed business with pleasure by giving Serena some attention.

of Dominique that was made before Serena was born. Scott was moved when he watched Dominique's message to her unborn child. Frank tried to evict Eve and blamed her for Mary's ordeal with the police over the stolen ransom money. Eve told Frank
that Scott had dropped the charges and that Frank had to take her to court to evict her. Julie intervened and stood up for Eve
and convinced Frank to give Eve another chance, but he wondered why Julie was sticking up for Eve. Guilty over not telling
Frank the truth about her wealthy family, Julie told Frank that at least Eve was not misrepresenting herself and also mentioned
the importance of forgiving people for one mistake. Meanwhile, Chris bribed Eve to help break up Julie and Frank. Ellen talked with Kevin about her frustration with the interns. Kevin and Ellen deduced that the interns air of invincibility, and unresponsive
nature towards her, could be traced to the hostage crisis. Kevin then offered to do a study on the interns.

returned to the lighthouse and told Gail, Lee, Kevin, Lucy, Karen and Joe that he and Serena were staying in Port Charles. Joe
saw the positive effect Karen's family had on her and hoped that they would help her get over her separation from Jagger. After making his final preparations for his important night with Danielle, Jake was upset when he returned home to find to her and
Rex together. Jake asked Rex to leave and then proposed to Danielle. Despite feeling unworthy of Jake's love and devotion,

Joe continued to misread Karen's marital situation by thinking that she and Jagger were estranged. Joe helped Karen find an
apartment and they then celebrated with wine and pizza. Karen and Joe's warm moment together lead them to a kiss. Mike told Mary that the city found out about his arrest record and had delayed the Recovery Room's liquor license. Mary told Mike that
she still wanted to see him and did not care about his past or that he was Sonny's father. Mary and Mike decided to become
partners as a way to obtain a liquor license for the bar. Meanwhile, Ellen vented her anger to Grace and Matt when she learned that Greg Cooper was deemed unfit to stand trial. Chris woke Julie up from her nightmare about Greg. Using the information he had learned from her file, Chris almost got Julie to open up about her past.

impressive pedigree, Rex insists on throwing a huge affair complete with sophisticated and wealthy relatives which he'll provide
at no extra cost. Lucy admits to Kevin she fears Scotty will refuse to let her see Serena if they force him to leave. Scotty drops
