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...
