Springfield Police Department
Taking a deep breath, Marina Cooper Lewis, Shayne's wife, Frank and Eleni's daughter walks inside of the precinct along with her mother Eleni who accompanied her inside so she won't have to do this alone. When her dad told her everything about Shayne's current predicament, Marina was having a hard time wrapping her head around all of it. How could Shayne be a killer when he wouldn't have one iota in him to destroy someone like Alan-Michael Spaulding? Both her and Alan-Michael have history with each other, she saw some good in him but it was all destroyed because of his carelessness and turning into the man who raised him like Alan-Michael. At least Phillip was a better man that Alan-Michael could be, but could Alan-Michael have set him up? Maybe he hired someone to stab him so that the person may of taken Shayne's fingers prints somehow on the knife, that had to be it. But right now all she needed was her husband and thankfully Eleni was at her side, supporting her, just like others who came by the house to support Marina. Joshua, Reva, Coop, Ashley, etc. all of them were here for Shayne's wife as she stops just inches away from the interrogation room which Eleni noticed.
Eleni - "This is it sweetheart, your husband is right there waiting for you. Reva and Joshua have already seen him along with a couple others, now it's your turn"
Marina - "I know mom but, what if I am not ready for this? Facing my own husband who may be the man responsible for-"
Eleni - "Now Marina, you know how this system works. Shayne will be cleared and found innocent, there's no way he would this unless he wanted too"
Marina - *Nods and sighs* "You're right mom, you're right, I need to do this by myself"
Eleni - "Of course baby, and I will be right out here watching. I am sure your father is in his office so I may just go there to check on him to see how he's holding up. You got this, remember that, okay?"
Marina - "Thanks mom...well, here I go"
Marina hugs her mother before she walks to the interrogation room while Elena watches, seeing her husband sitting there, handcuffed to the table. Shayne who saw his wife come in noticed how shocked and sad she looked before Marina reached over to hug her husband.
Marina - "Shayne, how is all of this possible? Why are you here? You would never commit a crime Shayne, I know you"
Shayne - "I'm not innocent Marina, you know how flawed I am but this is something I didn't do"
Marina - *Sits down across from Shayne* "What do you remember? And tell me all of it"
Shayne - "I was never at Lewis-Spaulding Marina, I was at Lewis Energies and that's it. All of this sounds too obvious to be honest "
Marina - "Did anything else happen that seemed odd around you when you were at Lewis Energies?"
Shayne - "No, nothing, it was just any normal day at the office like any other. Then Mallet and Remy came in, told me about the fingerprints on the knife that matched mine, so I came here, answered their questions and then I was arrested "
Maria - "But you didn't stab Alan-Michael, right?"
Shayne - "No Marina, I didn't stab Alan-Michael but I don't know who else would. Dinah visited me earlier and she thought Edmund was behind this"
Marina - "Edmund? Why him? Why would he...because of Little HB?"
Shayne - "Correct, but would he really be that dumb of risking a relationship with out son? And then there's Lara, the two of them are just getting to know each other as father and daughter. It's just too dumb on his part to destroy everything of getting back at me"
Marina - "Edmund has never been that bright anyway Shayne. But forget him, you're not staying in here that long. When I leave I will speak to Cyrus and Daisy so that we can look into this so you'll be cleared"
Shayne - "Thanks but Dinah's already beating you to the punch, she's going to look into this as well"
Marina - "The more the better Shayne, I just hate what this is doing to us and to our son. Hopefully he doesn't see this on television or somewhere else"
Shayne - "How is HB by the way?"
Marina - "He's okay, Coop and Ashlee are with him now but, he still doesn't know what's going on. Hopefully there'll be no charged pressed against you and that you'll get to go home, then explain everything to him"
Shayne - "Of course but we can't guarantee that Marina. Anything is possible and if I get charged, you or at least mom and dad or your parents can explain to him"
Marina - "And that will be the hard part, but I do know this, you Shayne Lewis will be founded innocent of this. You have my word, I love you"
Shayne - "I love you too"
Marina got up and leaned forward before kissing Shayne who caressed one side of her face while the two of them savored the kiss they were sharing. They weren't going to have sex or anything like that in the interrogation but you could tell that the love was still there for them. All couples go through their own roadblocks, this was one of them where they can overcome this. But some of what Shayne told him is true, none of this will be easy but he does know that Marina used to be a cop for the Springfield Police Department before owning Company's and also works as a PI for Harley's too right? Marina always worked well with Cyrus, Daisy and even sometimes Dinah and Blake when the occasion calls for it. Outside of the office as Eleni watches with a smile on his face, Frank leaves his office and noticed his wife before he walks up to her. They didn't have to say anything but at least hug each other before watching Marina leave the office. Both of them could see the tears on Marina's face as they hugged their daughter at the same time though, knowing this was hurting their daughter. For someone like Frank who was a cop at heart, he himself felt that more could be done to help Shayne and he'll make sure that happens.
Cedar's Hospital
Ross and Blake arrived at Cedar's Hospital after Blake got a phone call from Ed about Bill and Lizzie's incident, Lizzie missing as of right now, Alan-Michael and Alexandra's death. Ross was in the middle of getting everything back in order when it came to his license as a lawyer but when Blake told him the news, immediately his mind went to Phillip, his nephew and thought of all the hell he must be going through right now. So he decided to come to Cedar's with Blake, so here they are as he decided to let Blake asks one of the nurses at the desk where Phillip's family was and if there's any word on Sara and Little HB's conditions. While Blake spoke to the nurse, Ross took out his phone that Blake bought for him and called Jason to let him know about everything that happened. He was just thankful to be back and still have his family with him. When Ross got his memories back, Blake told him everything that he missed out and thought Jason, Kevin, and Clarissa would hate him for missing out. They did miss him, they wished he was here the entire time but all three didn't hate their father. It was more like relieved that he's back and wasn't going anywhere, as Ross looked up to see Ed and Holly walk out of the elevator before they saw Ross.
Holly - "Ross, Blake, were so glad the two of you are here"
Ross - "Blake told me all about Alexandra, Lizzie, and the children. Are we for certain that Alexandra's dead?"
Holly - "Unfortunately yes, from what Michelle and Rosita told Fletcher, she died of a heart attack before Fletcher came home and saw her in their bed. Alexandra wasn't responding at all, poor Fletcher though, he was so devastated when he went to the morgue to be with his wife. Meg just arrived and she's with her father in the chapel now"
Blake - "That's good, Fletcher needs to be with someone like her. But she's really gone isn't she? First Alan, and now Alexandra, and possibly Alan-Michael...what a shame"
Ed - "Vanessa, Billy, Tammy and Bill are with Sarah and HB in different rooms. Alan Michael's in a coma so my nephew isn't out of the woods yet, but the police just arrested Shayne Lewis for stabbing him with a knife , attempting murder on Alan-Michael"
Ross - "Shane? Shayne Lewis? That doesn't sound right, why would he want to kill Alan-Michael?"
Holly - "This took place at Lewis-Spaulding Enterprises in one of the elevators. Everyone there was waiting for Alan-Michael to arrive but then Zach found him out of the elevator when Phillip sent him to look for his uncle. Poor Zach, he must have been terrified from seeing Alan-Michael nearly dead"
Ross - "Is there any chance of him coming out of the coma?"
Ed - "Hard to say right now until something changes. I did call Hope when this happened and was here just now. But at the moment she isn't"
Holly - "Maybe she needed some time to herself to process all of this. This is very hard for her, Alan-Michael is her only son in the entire world"
Blake - "Wait...what if she's at the Springfield Police Department? She must of heard the news about Shayne's arrest and immediately went down there"
Ed - *Groans* "Why didn't I think of that? I need to call her right now-"
Hope - "There's no need to do that uncle Ed, I am right here and going nowhere"
Hope, who walked off the elevator, approaches the group before she hugs her uncle who was relieved to see her this time.
Ed - "Where were you Hope? You had me worried"
Hope - "Where else do you think I was? Confronting the man who stabbed my son to death, if it wasn't for Joshua and Reva then I would of-"
Ed - "We don't know of that for certain, let's just have the system take care of this and now take the law into our own hands"
Hope - "Are you serious right now? Shayne Lewis is guilty, there's no doubt about it uncle Ed, I can feel it in my bones"
Blake - "To be fair Hope, Alan-Michael did get himself in this mess when he came back and tried to take the company from Bill and Lizzie. That resulted in everyone, stockholders and members of the board being divided from both sides so that-"
Hope - "Shut up Blake, my son wasn't perfect but at least he wasn't anything like you back in the day or what you are now"
Blake - "Excuse me?"
Ross - "Not here ladies, this isn't worth the argument"
Phillip - "Hope!"
Hope turned around, thankfully not arguing with Blake anymore, as Phillip hugged Hope. James, Daisy, Buzz, Lillian, Olivia and Natalia with Francesca followed Phillip when they met up with him earlier.
Phillip - "I'm so sorry Hope you're going through this. Alan-Michael would be glad to see you if he wasn't in a coma"
Hope - "My son and I haven't had the best relationship but he's still my son, we have to keep praying that he makes it through this ordeal. Did you hear about Shayne? He was arrested for murdering your brother"
Phillip - "I just did hear about that, but we'll see what happens but right now Alan-Michael needs you. Hopefully you're staying here for the time being"
Hope - "Of course I am, it's the right thing"
Ross - "Phillip..." *Ross hugs Phillip* "We heard about Lizzie, if there's anything we can do son, don't hesitate to call either one of us"
Phillip - *Smiles "Thanks Uncle Ross, you know it's good to have you back in my life. I'm all better now and I got everything I need now, family"
Blake - "Phillip, can I talk to you alone for a minute?"
Phillip - "Sure, i'll be right back guys"
Blake and Phillip went down the hallway on the other side, while everyone else spoke to each other about everything that's happened. When Blake and Phillip were in the clear and away from everyone else, Blake is the first one to speak.
Blake - "You haven't told him correct?"
Phillip - "About what?"
Blake - "The plane crash, Ross doesn't know yet does he? You have to talk to him about that Phillip before he finds out from someone else"
Phillip - *Sighs* "You're right, I know I do, but as of now, it's not a good time Blake. I'm already dealing with too much at the moment"
Blake - "Well you know how Ross is, he can be very resourceful of looking up information anywhere. I'm surprised he doesn't know what really happened when we thought we lost him for good"
Phillip - "Look, if Ross finds out and confronts me then so be it, I deserve his wraith. Rick deserves it too for the part he played...god, what the hell was I thinking?"
Blake - "You weren't in the right frame of mind, you were sick Phillip. Yes you were wrong, but you would never in a million years hurt Ross. The man is family, he's your uncle and he loves you too"
Ross - "Blake..."
Blake and Phillip were surprised to see Ross behind them with the phone in his hands. Was he about to bust Phillip for what he just heard? Or would he just play it off like nothing happened/
Blake - "Is everything okay honey?"
Ross - "Yes I just...wanted to let you know that Jason, Kevin and Clarissa are here as well to see Sarah and HB"
Blake - "Okay, let me say hi to them before they go to see the two of them"
Ross nodded before Blake leaves with Phillip, but as he looks back at the two of them who greet Jason, Kevin and Clarissa. Did Ross hear exactly what he just heard? Phillip's the reason for Ross's so called death? But how? That was impossible, then again, the last time Ross was alive he went on the plane to find Phillip after he got a lead of his nephew's current whereabouts. The man wasn't going to do anything to his nephew, he wasn't about to hurt the man or make him come back unless Ross had a plan in motion. He was just going to convince Phillip come back home so he can get help. But that only means one thing, the plane had to not be in good shape, and Ross went into the other plane after the first one was delayed due to technical difficulties. Oh my goodness, so Phillip somehow hijacked the plane? But he couldn't have done this all by his lonesome, he had to have help. But from who? Looking over at Phillip greeting his cousins, Ross's children, the former District Attorney, the former congressmen of Springfield narrowed his eyes at Phillip before Ross himself joined the group. If Phillip and whoever else was responsible for this, Ross doesn't know if he could ever look at him the same again.
