purse and Carly spills her pills. She picks them up and pants before meeting
up with her family. The women tell Daniel he can't have clam chowder for

Juliet. She thinks he would have loved her in time. He thinks she has a massive
ego and he'll never forgive her. Gripping her violently, he says he would kill
her but he wouldn't do that to the children. "You are a hell of a role model!"

porcelain. She goes out to the park and tells herself that she did all of this

who cares about her. She says that Taylor never cared about her. "No more than
EJ did... no more than you did!" she snaps. Brady reminds her of how much
