(by Jon-Michael Reed)

Wally and Harriet returned Bonnie to Devon who now insists she’ll keep the child.  Mark blamed Paul when Ellen called off marriage plans.  Phil arrested Billy Clyde, who was put behind bars for his threatening antics against Benny and Estelle.  Betsy Kennicott, Dan’s sister, arrived in town.  Brooke apologized to Mark for trying to seduce him, but she wasn’t really sorry.  Chuck was released from the hospital and is under Donna’s care.  Phoebe ranted that she’ll expose Charles and Mona’s “sin.” Caroline caught Nancy and Frank arguing about the reasons for their busted marriage.  Brooke seduced a drunken Mark after Ellen gave him a reluctant heave-ho.  A shady pal of Eddie’s, Langley Wallingford, arrived in town looking for a mark.  Kelly dealt with Lettie Jean for pep pills.  Eddie managed the Chateau while Claudette visited her ailing Ma on her banana plantation.  Estelle and Benny headed for the altar.  Nancy went to see a patient in a seedy section of town and encountered trouble.  Erica joined Phoebe’s rage at Mona and Charles, who resolved not to allow threats to ruin their innocent love.  Paul offered his shoulder to Ellen.  Nancy underwent surgery after being mugged, but asked Frank to care for Carl if she doesn’t survive.  Linc halted Benny and Estelle’s wedding because her divorce isn’t legal.  Devon asked Wally to marry her.  Mona resigned from her job with Charles after Phoebe’s threats to spread scandal to the hospital board.  Langley eyed Edna’s and Phoebe’s bank accounts.  Myrtle learned about Kelly’s pill habit.  Nancy survived the surgery, but the near tragedy made Frank realize he still cares for her.  Wally’s parents opposed his marriage to Devon.  Charles had a showdown with Phoebe for blackmailing Mona, who resumed her job after Charles called Phoebe’s bluff.  Edna zeroed in on Benny, got the cold shoulder from Estelle because of the marriage fiasco.  Phil, Charlie, and Tara vacationed and Phil was offered a government job. Caroline wrote Frank a goodbye letter after noticing his concern for Nancy.

With Billy Clyde in jail, Estelle feels guilty for having been the cause of his terrorizing everyone. Claudette’s mother, Margo, in a car accident in Costa Rica, is forcing Claudette to leave the Chateau in Eddie’s care. Learning an important critic is in the audience, Kelly takes uppers one more time. Joe is upset by Jeff’s decision to remain in San Francisco, but realizes it’s the only way he can save his marriage to Christina.

Having broken off her engagement to Mark, Ellen asks Paul for a shoulder to lean on, and he obliges. With a lot of shoving from Brooke, Mark finds himself in bed with her. Feeling she may have caused Ellen’s break with Mark, Devon reconsiders her decision to raise Bonnie alone. Letty Jean is Kelly’s latest pill connection. At the altar with Benny, Estelle is warned by Linc that Billy Clyde is going to charger her with bigamy if she weds. Nancy is mugged while out on a social service assignment. A distinguished-looking con, Langley Wallingford, artist arrives in town posing as a professor.

After making love with Brooke, a hung-over Mark throws her out of his apartment, but she plans to keep trying. Linc interrupts Estelle and Benny’s wedding, insisting she is running risk of bigamy action. Devastated, Estelle tells Benny she never wants to see him again and goes to stay with Donna and Chuck. Nancy faces risky surgery for the skull fracture she suffered in the mugging and she asks Frank to raise Carl if she should die. Feeling responsible for her mother’s break-up with Mark, Devon tells Wally she wants to marry him.

Tara, Philip and Charlie enjoy vacation until a mysterious government official offers Phil a highly confidential assignment. Edna is learning to forget Benny with the help of Langley Wallingford, who is only interested in her money. Ellen is aghast at Devon’s decision to wed Wally. Despite attempts by Wally’s parents to stop the wedding, Devon and Wally are married. With Nancy out of danger, Caroline writes a good-bye note to Frank and tells him baby Carl is his son. Charles warns Phoebe he will have her arrested for theft unless she returns prints and negatives of his trip to Rome. When she does, Mona comes back to work. Kelly’s dependency on amphetamines comes to light for everyone.
