Romance & Trouble Ahead!

Adventure leads to chaos for Lucky, Liz, Emily and Nikolas!
It looks like Emily's blackmailer may have the upper-hand
when Lucky and Nikolas run into brick walls -- and each other -- trying
to help her. In the estranged brothers' quest to find out who's behind
phony naked photos of Emily, they will travel to New York City and be forced
to break the law. But instead of uncovering the truth, they may just
get themselves thrown in jail! The blackmailer -- who
doctored photos of Emily, putting her head on a naked body -- is demanding
$100,000. Lucky gets a hot lead when he finds another nude photo
on the Internet with the identical body. Lucky's research shows that
this model's name is Maggie Christian and she works out of a New York City
modeling agency.
Emily, Lucky, Nikolas and Liz take off on their
adventure on October 7. When the modeling agency fails to help them locate
Maggie, the foursome resort to illegal measures to find her own their own.
They stumble upon some damning info, but will they be able to find Maggie?
And if so, will she provide them witht he answers they need? Was
she a blackmail victim as well? Or is she part of the extortion plot?
Beyond helping Emily, the group's investigation
creates a new girl-power bond between Liz and Emily, and furthers the growing
romance between Lucky and Liz. "If Lucky wanted to go pick berries in the
field, she would be right there by his side," says Herbst. "She feels
he saved her life. He has been her crutch and life-support system
these past eight months, and she wouldn't have been able to get through
the rape incident without him. This will make them closer; it makes
them bond and its just another step in their relationship."
"I think it will prove how well they can work together
for a common goal," says Jonathan Jackson (Lucky). "But I think their
romance is sidelined while they try to accomplish something together."
Let's not forget Emily's feelings for Nikolas. "I
think that she has a major, major crush on him," says Amber Tamblyn (Emily).
"It's to the point where she says things that are kind of irrelevant and
dumb. Her crush on him comes from him being the mature person that
he is. He's very trustworthy and a good friend... and all those qualities
bring out the love in Emily."
So while Liz and Lucky may grow from this experience
together, don't expect the same for Emily and Nikolas. "I think Nikolas
sees Emily as a little sister and a friend," realizes Tamblyn. "I
don't think he's ever really looked at her in the romantic sense, and I
don't think that even this will bring them together. I doubt that
will happen and this will probably be another blow to Emily."
Regardless of the outcome of Emily's blackmail,
the Manhattan project will most assuredly change the way brothers Lucky
and Nikolas view each other -- and in a larger sense, alter the ongoing
feud between the Spencers and the Cassadines.
"I think Lucky wishes Nikolas didn't have anything
to do with it and wishes he didn't have anything to do with his life,"
suggests Jackson. "But I'm sure there's a part of him that enjoys
getting his blood pumping and getting into fights with Nikolas."
"Elizabeth is excited that Lucky and Nikolas are
growing closer and wishes they could be better friends," says Herbst, whose
character is usually playing mediator for those around her. "Elizabeth
is always trying to repair all the relationships with Lucky and his brother,
Lucky and his father and mother."
"For me, it would have to take something pretty
big to change Lucky's view of Nikolas," says the actor. "It's just
pretty much shot between them."
