with Dinah who is lurking outside the door.

FIFTH STREET:  There is a lot of hustle and bustle and Reva is hollering to 
Shayne while Alan and Josh carry pieces of the building.  Inside the building 
Zach tells Shayne to hang on....Josh wants to go in after him but Alan holds 
him back.  Reva says to herself, "Shayne cannot die...I hardly know him."

ROLL LIGHTHOUSE

The camera pans to a crack in the building's structure that makes it look 
like the place could cave in any second.  Josh asks Zach the condition of the 
building inside, he says it's shaky.  Josh and Alan enter the building...the 
roof cracks some more....Reva is concerned.....Josh and Alan 
continue....Annie's concerned....Reva grabs Annie's hand.  Josh reaches 
Shayne while Alan supports a shaky staircase.  Josh carries Shayne out while 
Alan is still holding up the stairs....the building starts to crumble.

BOARDINGHOUSE:  Bridg asks Hart again if things are over with Dinah.  Hart 
tells her he was using Dinah who is still listening outside the door.  After 
remembering a conversation w/ Hart Dinah bursts into the kitchen and declairs 
that this is going to end right now.

Commercial

Peter goes to bed and Dinah gives Hart papers to the farm in exchange for a 
dollar.  Bridget isn't buying the fact that Hart and Dinah aren't lovers.

DINER:  Marah is crying and runs out of the diner right into Jnodot.

5TH STREET:  Josh makes it out of the building and Shayne is bombarded with 
medical attention while Amanda is looking for Alan.  Shayne is taken to the 
hospital and Reva asks Marcus to go tell Marah.  Alexandra arrives on the 
scene looking for Alan.  A/M and Phillip go into the building to help him.  
Alan asks for Shayne then tells his sons to leave before the building 
collapses.  "Shut up Dad, we're not leaving you," says Phil.

Commercial

Phillip and A-M get the staircase off of Alan who is worried about ruining 
his pants.  His sons make light of the situation then decide they better get 
the hell out of there.  Meanwhile Zach is outside looking like he is saying a 
prayer.  They make it out of the building just in time and while Alan is on 
the stretcher all the Spauldings decide to meet him at the hospital, even 
A-M.  Lucy is pleased.

Grif enters the scene followed by cameras and reporters showing the world 
what Alan has done.  Mandy comes to Alan's defense and Alan vows revenge 
against Grif.

DINER:  Marah is still upset but J calms her w/ a story about when his sister 
was hurt.  Dahlia touched by J's compassion reaches out and grabs his hand 
just as Marcus enters the Diner.

ER:  Shayne is getting medical attention from Cedar's finest while Josh and 
Reva look on.  Rick tells Annie she's to closely involved so she should 
leave.

Reva hold hands....Alan notices and so does Buzz.  Shayne's deteriorating 
says Rick.  Annie checks on Alan and is badgered by the Spaulding clan.

opportunity to thank his sons for saving his life then pontificates about 
when Spauldings stick together there is nothing they cannot accomplish.  A-M 
goes out for air followed by Phillip.

DINER:  Marcus talks to Marah and tells her Shayne is at the hospital, Shayne 
is brave blah blah blah.  Dahlia is touched by Marcus too.  Marcus gets up to 
leave but Dahlia stops him.

BOARDINGHOUSE:  Bridget isn't buying Dirt's act and says she deserves a 
little respect from them considering she covered for them and was willing to 
testify against Roger to help them.  Dinah retorts by telling Bridg to get a 
life because a man and a woman can work together and not be lovers.  Bridget 
looks to Hart for confirmation of this which he does.  Dinah leaves but 
Bridget doesn't let Hart off the hook.  Bridget casually mentions that if the 
judge finds out what Dinah and Hart are up to then they could go to jail.  
Nola comes in proclaiming Peedie is asleep.  Hart wants to take Peedie and 
Bridg to the zoo next week (that's where his other girlfriend belongs).  He 
leaves and Bridg asks Nola how you know when a man is lying.

has her doubts.  Nola doesn't think she's an expert on this subject given her 
history with Quint but tells Bridget to trust her instincts.  Bridget leaves.

DINER:  Dahlia tells Marcus he is good with kids.  Marcus isn't overly 
thrilled and leaves.

OUTSIDE CEDARS:  Phil wants everything to end and pines over his predicament 
while prodding A-M to tell him the truth.  A-M is convinced that all roads 
lead back to the Spaulding Presidency.  Inside Zachary holds Lucy back from 
interfering and continues dispensing sage advice.

ER:  Shayne is still digressing, Buzz comforts Reva then goes to get coffee.

goes off to stare gape mawed at her pill bottle.

JESSUP FARM:  Dinah is waiting for Hart anticipating an argument.  Hart comes 
in and kisses her passionately while Bridget looks on thru the window....the 
screen fades to black.
