SPLIT PERSONALITIES
When Phyllis Rose airs the photo of Charlie and Echo kissing, Natalie is shocked and convinced that the photo must be a fraud, but Viki confides that Tess took the photo and it is indeed real. After Natalie leaves to confront Tess, Tess shows up at Llanfair and goes off on Viki about Ryder’s custody battle throwing in some digs about Viki’s failures as a wife and mother. Tess doesn’t let up on Viki until she sees that Viki is writhing in pain and Tess thinks she is suffering a heart attack until Niki Smith reveals that she has returned. When Tess returns to Ford’s apartment, Ford expresses his regrets that Viki must have been hurt by the photograph, but Tess tells him to save it, and explains how Viki is responsible for Tess’s existence. Later, Tess conspires with Niki to get custody of Ryder and the two are almost caught by Natalie, but Tess provides a cover for Niki’s strange appearance. Natalie gets word that Clint has suffered a heart attack and rushes to the hospital. Dorian and Joey have accompanied Clint to the hospital, and while he is being treated, Dorian almost tells Joey the truth about Aubrey and Cutter but is interrupted by Natalie’s arrival. Dorian goes to Llanfair to tell Viki (who is still Niki) that Echo knew the truth about Rex’s paternity, and is perplexed when Viki isn’t angrier. Natalie is upset by Rex’s indifference to Clint’s condition, but Rex allows Gigi to see that he’s really rocked by the turn of events.
