Marty Remembers Everything
Soap Opera Digest
May 26, 2009
After a year of being in Llanview with no memory of her former
life
there, Marty has a major breakthrough -- with Todd's help.
"His voice literally jogs her memory," previews Susan Haskell (Marty).
While trapped in the very room where Todd, Zach and Powel
raped her years earlier, Marty begins to have flashes of what
happened there. "She starts to remember things once she and
Todd are in the room by themselves," sets up the actress.
"Not that she hadn't noticed where she was, but she was just so focused
on Powell and knives and guns and other people that once they're gon,
she starts to take in the room." When Todd realizes what's
going on, he gives her prompts to help her remember things about her
life.
Meanwhile, Powell has managed to kidnap baby Chloe and brings the child
to Todd and Marty, explaining that she is their
granddaughter. They both quickly realize he's not bluffing
and urge the psycho to hand over the child. Powell refuses to
let Todd have the tot, but Marty tries to get through to Powell by
thanking him for bringing them there because it helped her regain her
memory. "The stakes are even higher with a child there and
she manages to see where all this is coming from, what's driving him,"
explains Haskell. "Obviously, he blames Todd, but he also
needs Marty's forgiveness, in a way." After Powell places the
child in Marty's lap, a look between Todd and Marty sets him off and a
struggle ensues. John rushes in and shoots Powell before he
can stab Todd.
At the end of the week, Marty and Cole share an emotional
reunion. "The son issue has been the most interesting part of
this for me," shares the actress. "It's interesting how it
all fit together and it's heartbreaking. She pushed him away
and she still feels guilty about that." Meanwhile, John still
has two more women to save...
