Twisted Season Four Episode 3 Snake in the Grass
Kyle Masterson has discovered something rather shocking about his family. Papers in a box belonging to the late Vikram Desai reveal that Tess Masterson has been hiding a big secret from her husband the Mayor of Green Grove. Tess sits on the couch as Kyle paces back and forth, waving a document. "You...lied...to...me! Again!" He put a hand to his forehead. "You said you never slept with him. Yet here in black and white. Danny and Jo. And he changed their birth certificates. This whole time when I was Police Chief and we were looking for Danny in Regina's murder. I was looking for Jo's brother? Just explain it to me, why?" Tess was scared and crying. "Karen and I went in to labor at the same time. Karen's baby didn't make it and Vikram suggested that we split the kids up. He took the boy and I took Jo. Since you weren't there it was easy to make everyone believe that I had one child and Karen had one child. Vikram paid off the hospital and presented Danny to her as their son. When you came up to see me I showed you Jo."
"Is Danny Desai my son?" He asked her more calmly. "Right before our wedding, Vikram and I had a fling. You and I got married two days later. I didn't think anything about it until after I gave birth and the baby boy looked like Vikram. Then I put two and two together and figured out what had happened. I'm guessing he's Vikrams and Jo is yours. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I didn't know how. And..." Kyle stopped her right there. "I know that story. I've heard it before. What is with you and children. First their was Samantha, then their was Charlie McBride and now Danny?" Kyle sat down at the bar in the kitchen and sighed. "Does Danny and Karen know the truth?" He looked over his shoulder at Tess. She looked away from him.
"I told them. Karen refuses to believe me. Danny isn't sure what to believe but he said that explains the feelings that him and Jo had for each other. Jo was relieved when she found out." Kyle pounded his fist on the bar causing Tess to jump. "So...everyone knows but me? Thanks Tess. Thank you for trusting me. Your husband." He got up and headed for the door. Tess jumped up and ran after him. "Kyle! I do trust you more than anyone. You have to know that." He looked her up and down as he reached for the door."You sure have a hell of a way of showing it. Good bye Tess." He didn't face her as he spoke. Tears rolled down Tesses cheeks as she realized that this time he might not come home. The life she knew maybe over.
Across town Danny and Lacey Desai are leaving their flat to move back to Green Grove. Danny has given the keys to his mom. Who is looking forward to moving into the penthouse. As they give the place one last look over Lacey has taken Karen asside to speak to her. "Mrs. Desai, I haven't told Danny yet but I think I'm pregnant. I thought I'd let you know first." Karen's eyes grew as wide as dinner plates with the news. She grabbed Lacey almost squeezing the life out of her. "Lacey, you can call me mom. You're my daugther in law now." She looked over at Danny who was patiently waiting for his bride. "I won't say a thing. I just wish I could be there when you tell him." The two women begin laughing loudly as Danny looks at them in confusion. They hug one more time and wave good bye to her as the doors to the elevator closes. Karen walks over to the window and takes in the view. Nothing could ruin this day for her.
As they leave Danny tips the doorman when he helps them into Danny's car. Once they get on their way, he asks Lacey what she and his mom were talking about. Lacey smiles at him shyly. "Just girl talk." He smiles, he knows differently. "Girl talk?" He reaches down and takes hold of Laceys hand and gives it a kiss. She settles against her seat and starts quizzing him about their new home. "So..hubby. Where is this mystery house where we can start a family?" He gives her an embarassed smile. "Now if I tell you then wouldn't that ruin the mystery?" She playfully punches him in the arm. "You'e not going to tell me, are you?" He laughs. "Nope. You're just going to have to be surprised." She bites her lower lip. "You like surprises?" She asks him. "Who doesn't." He replies back. She giggles. "Just checking." The rest of the trip, Danny wonders what is with Lacey and what is she hiding from him.
At the police station, Chief Garrett is looking at his computer screen. When one of the deputies comes into his office with some urgent business. "Chief, you might want to see this?" Outside in the main office a television is broadcasting a news report about a disturbance during the trial of Marilyn Rossi.
"Havok in the courtroom as sources say that former investigator Marilyn Rossi has disappeared from custody and is now at large somewhere in Green Grove. We will have more as this story develops."
Garrett can't believe his ears. "Why am I just now hearing about Marilyn Rossi. I want an APB posted now. We have to get her back into custody asap. I'll call the Mayor and advise him to the situation. I want all available units out looking for her. Myer's call Albany and get me a chopper in the air. MOVE PEOPLE!" Eddie goes back into his office. "What is she thinking? This isn't part of the plan." He thinks to himself. He reaches for the phone when Masterson walks into his office. "Eddie, I heard the radio on the way over. Is it true, Marilyn escaped." Eddied nodded to the Mayor. "How could you let this happen?" Chief Garrett tired to calm Kyle down. "Look, Mayor, I got every available man out there looking for her. I have a helicopter on the way. Don't worry. We will get her." Kyle pulled out his cell. Eddie was curious who he was calling. "Anything else I should know, Kyle?" There are no answer on the end of the line. Kyle turned to answer Eddie. "I was calling Danny. He should know that Marilyn is out there. Him and Lacey could be in really danger." He left the office with Garrett following behind him. Garrett looked over at Myers who had just gotten of the phone with Albanu about the helicopter. "Chief, bird will be in the air in about ten minutes." Kyle kept his quick pace until he got to his car. Eddie called out to him. "Mayor? Where are you going" As he climbed in the drivers seat he answered. "To find Danny!"
