THURSDAY JULY 9, 1998

ST. JOSEPH'S: Gregory unintentionally sided with Cole when he tried to get AJ to leave by telling him that the celebration was for Gregory's family, not for AJ's. When Gregory mentioned that he was giving AJ shares in the Liberty Corporation, Bette realized that Gregory was pulling a scam on AJ.

Wearing a shawl over her head so she wouldn't be recognized, Annie overheard Olivia confessing that Cole may have been the father of her baby. Annie was tickled pink to hear that juicy tidbit of information! Bette walked in on Annie when doing a celebratory dance in the ladies' room. Annie announced that she would be happy to have Olivia stand up with her as Trey's godmother, because she'd never dream of coming between Olivia and her baby.

CEDAR OAKS: The mystery woman begged Tim not to tell anyone that she was in his room. When the nurse came in looking for her, she hid and Tim covered for her. The mystery woman left, obviously terrified, but she wouldn't tell Tim what she's afraid of.

BEN'S HOUSE: Ben admitted to Meg that he caught Derek in bed with Maria the night she died. He said that Maria denied it when they were on the boat, but he didn't believe her. Ben felt it was his lack of faith that killed her. Ben got the call that they didn't find Derek's body. He reassured Meg that Derek's body was washed out to sea; there was no way he could have survived that fall. Meg wanted Ben to move on. He replied that he had to learn to live with the mistake that he made not trusting Maria.

Meg, not realizing that he knows that she was intimate with Derek, tried to figure out how to tell him. When Meg attempted to tell Ben about being intimate with Derek, he wouldn't let her, and she wondered if he already knew the truth.

RICHARDS HOUSE: Caitlin dodged Cole's question about whether Annie was blackmailing her by claiming that she only asked Annie to be Trey's godmother to preserve the peace in their home. After Cole left the room, Caitlin confessed to Sean about Annie's blackmail. Sean offered to blackmail Annie back, but Caitlin talked him out of it.

ST JOSEPH'S: When they arrived at the church, AJ offered to leave, but Cole asked him to stay. He told AJ that even though all wasn't forgiven, he wanted AJ to be part of Trey's life. Olivia told Caitlin that she'd be happy to share being godmother with Annie. She'd make up tenfold for anything that Annie misses. Olivia prayed not to fail her children again, and to remember what happened to her baby.

Antonio gave Caitlin a present -- a music box that plays "Rock-A-Bye, Baby." Annie told Caitlin to stop playing it, but Olivia insisted that she needs to remember. While holding Trey during the baptism, Olivia recognized him as her own baby. When Annie took Trey from Olivia, Olivia remembered Annie taking her baby from her!

CEDAR OAKS: Meg surprised Tim with a visit. Meg gushed about how much Ben loves her, then apologized. Tim insisted he was happy for her. Tim fell asleep. On her way out, Meg came face to face with the mystery woman. Meanwhile, at the pier, Ben said good-bye to Maria.
