Everyone's mystified, except Townie, who declares it's a message from GLC, who's obviously playing a sick game with them. Trish agrees: it means GLC wants Abby to go back to the Candlewick. As if this is even worth debate, Henry says no way, it's too dangerous. But Trish is on a roll. T: He wants you, Abby. He wants you to go back to the Candlewick. He knows how you feel about FH. He let him live... brought him here. It's a peace offering! He's your dad. Maybe he just wants to talk. Trish obviously wants Abby dead and doesn't care who knows it.
Your idea is this retarded.
Henry, the lone voice of sanity, protests, but Abby's sold. This is between her and GLC. If anyone goes with her, they're all dead. Abby says she has to do this. She came back to HI to face her father. Now she just needs a gun. And a thorazine drip. Alas, they only have guns. Townie hands one to her and Abby exits to the parking lot.
Candlewick corridor. Abby approaches her room. The door's open. GLC stands there. A: It is you. A terrified-looking GLC asks if FH is safe. Abby says yes, but you knew that. GLC tells her he made a deal with Wakefield to keep FH alive. When Abby says that Wakefield's dead, GLC replies that he shot him but they never found his body so he buried some random corpse in W's place. When Abby scoffs, GLC implores her to leave. GLC: This is a trap. I'm a trap. Abby has had enough. She yells that she's not a little girl anymore so GLC can't send her away! She advances to deliver a satisfying slap to the face. GLC: Don't come near me! The panic in his voice makes her halt.
Cannery. In her best robo-moppet monotone, Madison tells Trish she lied. Abby's dad didn't take her. Her "new friend" did. He said she had to lie to Abby, those were the rules, and if she didn't, TS would "disappear like Daddy". Trish demands to know who this new friend is.
Happy Father's Day, Gasmii!
Candlewick, Abby's room. GLC swears Wakefield is alive, but Abby cuts him off, telling him he's obsessed and that seeing her again triggered a breakdown. GLC pleads with her-- he doesn't want her "to see this". Abby demands to know if she's Wakefield's child. No! GLC insists. Abby's his daughter and she better not ever forget it!
Unnerved, Abby notices GLC's hands are tied at his sides. And there's a walkie-talkie on the dresser. She makes a move toward it. GLC: No. It's too late for me. Fish Hunk loves you. You two can have a life together. Alarmed, Abby wants to know if the deal GLC made was his life for FH's. GLC begs her not to watch "this". Starting to get it, Abby asks if Wakefield was the one who dumped FH at the Cannery.
Int, SUV. A hand on an arm in the sleeve of a HI police uniform holds a walkie-talkie, listening to Abby & GLC.
Candlewick, Abby's room. GLC: This is Wakefield's game. He uses everything we love against us. To take us out one by one. This will never be over until he's dead. I couldn't do it. But you're strong. You can finish Wakefield. I love you... SO MUCH... From outside, tires squeal. And so does Abby when GLC is yanked through the window on a rope like a grizzled local yo-yo!
Ext. Candlewick. The SUV bumper has a rope tied to it. Abby runs out onto the porch. She looks up and sees the fiendish pulley contraption enabling Wakefield to hang GLC like a grizzled local pinata. Only instead of candy, it's filled with regrets.
Abby stares transfixed at GLC's corpse. She's been through a lot today, so I guess we can forgive her for not being wary of whomever hit the fatal gas pedal. In the one genuinely scary shot in this series thus far, a hulking figure appears behind her!
Turn yo skinny white ass AROUN'!!!
It's Wakefield. As Abby whimpers, he snatches the rifle from her hands. You look just like your mother, he sneers. OMFG how rude! That's her real hair, not a wig, you fiend. The End!

I love you!
You have made my day. Every week I look forward to this show and your recaps. I know I am probably going to be insanely disappointed in the ending (with 5 episodes left, they only whipped up enough plot for 3. ha ha.) But I can't wait to see it every week. Speaking of which, I also love and am very impressed with the speed you get these recaps out, (last week excluded) you must have a time machine. Love it. I havent read this recap yet, but Thanks in advance.

I'm confused... Have I found myself lost in some time/space continuum? This episode isn't on until tonight and yet Leia has not only seen it but written a recap and posted it. I am in awe! And now I don't have to watch it myself... thank god.

Queridos:
TVFreak, yes, you are da man or woman. U da Freak. There that covers it.
As you can see from the fact that I recapped this episode over 12 hours before it aired on the west coast, I am writing to you from the future. Where David Carradine's unfortunate bewigged transvestite auto-erotic asphyxiation is now fair game for jokes, albeit tasteless ones.
Being in the future as I am has spoiled some of my dear Gasmii-- Tree, I adore you, too, but I posted last week's only 2 days after it aired in June 2009, where all of you are! I challenge you to find a speedier recap on this site.
Flipit posted this week's blog and he might have thought the show aired Friday night, which would explain the delicious forbidden Gasmii thrill of recap (Saturday AM) coming before show (Saturday night).
Anyway, things are awesome here in the future. On CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER Ex-Governor Sarah Palin just went to the Diary Room and revealed Willow is pregnant by A-Rod.
Besos Fuertes,
LLB

Well I just watched it. I am so glad Jimmy is alive and although I think he may be Wakefield's son I don't think he is part of it and neither do I think, is Henry. Please Please

I feel cheated Leia in a way...well in a way that you could describe in a much more colorful manner than I.
So this show is about Wakefield coming back. It wasn't 10 Little Indians? Pardon me while I look vaguely disturbed. All of our guessing and theories and discussion of clues and red herrings and it turns out the answer is "the murderer did it"?
Yes, I know there is a second killer--Wakefield's son of course. Probably FH. But meh. Meh I say. Meh.

I love these recaps and this was one of the best! "Only instead of filled with candy, it's filled with regrets."
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Thanks for another great recap, LL.
I have no theories at the moment probably because of the whole non-twist of a twist. Gee, thanks, HI writers. Boo! Anyway hopefully there will be something to fill the last few episodes. We still don't know who has the murderous dna.
Ya know... I was a bit disappointed that they revealed the whole wakefield thing. I was sort of getting into this show. I mean, it sucks and all, but I was getting into trying to figure it all out. Oh well.
