warning a spoiler and sorry its so long :
Nursery Crimes!
Sheila is alive and youre not going to believe who holds the key to her future.
As we already know, Poor Lauren has been unable to revel in the joys of motherhood. Thats because mom is terrified that Sheila will kidnap Fen just like she did Laurens first son years ago. And the so called proof that Sheila is dead has been little comfort.
But Lauren isnt the only stressed out resident in the Baldwin house. Michael is defending Devon, the # 1 suspect in Carmens murder. As evidence that Devon is the killer mounts, Michael is upset that Paul has pulled out as the investigator for the case Michael doesnt understand why and keeps asking questions explains Doug D. Pauls been getting defensive because hes trying to get Michael to leave him alone and move on. But Michael thinks Paul is hiding something, which he is. Hes trying to make sure Brads secret doesnt get blown open.
Unable to count on Paul, Michael is further upset when he comes home and finds the detective in conversation with Lauren Michael once again accuses Paul of holding back information about Devons case, Says DD. They get in each others faces and finally Paul just leaves.
But an intently curious Michael decides to get to the bottom of Pauls behavior by tailing his car. Paul doesnt know hes being followed, says DD, then Michael cant make it through a traffic light and loses Paul.
Williams arrives at a very mysterious location, a room decorated like a nursery. Theres someone already present, but it aint no baby! A woman with long hair is standing with her back to Paul. Sheila? When she turns around we see Phyllis! But is she really Phyllis, what the heck is going on?
Its Sheila, announces Michelle That sick ##### had surgery to look like Phyllis.
With such a familiar face, a madeover Sheila has been able to not only return to Genoa City, but to get really close to her clueless enemies. Shes cocky, chuckles Michelle. Shes been moving around town and being careful not to be where the real Phyllis is at the same time. So for a while, no one knew if they were talking to Sheila or Phyllis.
Sheila was even welcomed into the Baldwin home, with Michael and Lauren believing they were entertaining Phyllis. So what is Sheila up to this time? She was going to take Fen, says Michelle, so she had a nursery built to look just like his, except this one has bars.
Thats because Sheila had planned to kidnap Lauren as well. That plan backfired and Paul has been holding Sheila captive. Hes had her locked up since October. says Michelle. How it happened is explained in flashbacks. As Phyllis, Sheila went shopping for Fen when she crossed paths with Paul. He noticed she was a little off because, well, shes not Phyllis. So he followed her and found the prison/nursery. After a couple days he went back and waited for her to arrive.
And when she did, Paul turned the tables on Sheila and imprisoned her. But that only created a conundrum for the otherwise good guy Paul, the way he sees it, hes saving several lives. Says DD, He knows that no matter where the police have Shelia, she seems to get out. So he took matters into his own hands, but he got into this very quickly before he realized what was really transpiring.
As we know a caged Sheila is not a happy camper, shes a little freaked out about being there sighs Stafford. Shes pretty upset. All she can think about is getting out. She has a lot of conversations with herself and talks to her reflection in the mirror.
Paul has shown up with food and Sheila tries to appeal to his sympathy by asking him to tell at least someone else he has her. That way, Sheila reasons, if anything happens to him, at least someone else knows about her. But Paul refuses, hes taken on an awesome responsibility to protect Lauren and Fen. Says DD, hes sacrificing his own life to ensure their safety, but a lie like this is like a cancer, its very difficult to live with on a day to day basis. Still hes determined to do this on his own.
Ah, but that objective gets terribly compromised next week. Says DD, coming up theres some twists that you would never expect, its going to be incredibly dramatic
