Sept 1979

Laura warned Amy not to get interested in Luke. Joe, Jeff and Steve headed for Mexico where Cal is hospitalized. Mitch told Tracy he couldn't live with her since the mob might hound him about Ted's death. Tracy spotted Mitch coming on to Susan. Amy blabbed to Scotty that Laura got a job at the disco. Alan found Amy admiring his house, then consoled her after learning her father had died. Monica and her unborn baby's condition improved. Dorrie told Howard it is over between them and packed her bags. Lesley investigated whether Mrs. Kakorian had a history of heart trouble.

Cal died but not before he told Jeff that Heather knows the truth about Steven Lars. Mrs. Grant realized the game was up and beat around the bush to Peter about knowing of an illegal adoption. It finally dawned on him that she was trying to explain that P.J. is actually Steven Lars. Anne won temporary custody of Jeremy who suggested she marry Jeff. She vetoed the idea although she's been drawn closer to Jeff. Luke comforted Laura about her stepfather's death. Laura and Scotty argued about her job schedule. Bobbie avoided one of her ex-johns who's a patient. Monica returned to Alan, although the baby may have heart problems.

Peter had a coronary after Mrs. Grant revealed the P.J. / Steven Lars story. Bobbie and Roy were upset when Barry Johnson recognized her in the hospital. Lesley’s reports on Mrs. Kirkorian’s previous ailment couldn’t be proved. Rick and Monica were forced to confide to Howard about their night together after Mrs. Kirkorian’s surgery. Luke and Roy worried they’d have to eliminate Mitch to prove their mob loyalty. Joe admitted his love for Anne, who asked they remained friends. Joe is jealous of Anne’s attentions to Jeff. Mitch and Tracy set their wedding date after the election. Peter called Jeff to Peter’s deathbed for the big confession.

Dorrie returned to England. Bobbie told Jessie she had once been a hooker. Peter died before he could tell Jeff about P.J / Steven Lars but he left Diana a mysterious letter. Kirkorian refused the hospital’s settlement so Rick and Monica prepared for a court battle. Monica returned to Alan upon her hospital release and accepted Amy’s offer to move in and help out during her recuperation. Mitch seduces Susan before she could give Joe any information on him. Laura bought Scotty a set of law books with the help of a charge card and Luke. Laura’s new friend, Claudia Johnson, warned Laura that Luke’s hung up on her while Luke fantasized that Laura loved him.

Alice blamed herself for Peter's death because she told him about P.J.-Stephen Lars. Diana made quick plans to take P.J. to visit her mother in Florida, keeping Peter’s note a secret. Bobbie is sure that Roy wouldn’t marry her if he knew she’d been a prostitute. Luke lent Laura money to pay for Scotty’s law books so Scotty wouldn’t know she used a credit card. Zelda Bernstein tried to get Monica to admit spending time with Rick after Mrs. Kirkorian’s first surgery. Amy decided some day she’d be rich like the Quartermaines.
