Is Jessica Falling For Nash? (SID 7/18/06)

Things take an unexpected turn this week on One Life to Live as Jessica starts developing some surprising feelings for Tess' boyfriend. But Nash has his hands full himself as he prepares for a final showdown with his sworn enemy, Reston. Who will survive when the two adversaries square off to settle the score once and for all?

Hot Flash
Having just sent him a picture of their daughter, it's understandable that Jessica would have Nash on her mind. But nothing prepares her for the moment when she suddenly gets a quick image of having sex with Brennan's dad! Worried about his response, she decides to keep this development from Antonio, and she heads to Todd for some avuncular advice. Later, Tess' confused alter schedules a much-needed appointment with Dr. Crosby.

Meanwhile, Nash and Bruce get together with their new ally, Claudia, to discuss their plan to finally defeat Reston. But this time her father catches on to their scheme and prepares for some payback of his own! So, en route to confronting his adversary, Claudia's dad decides to pack some heat to gain the deadly advantage.

Tess Is Back!
During Jessica's session, Dr. Crosby explains to Viki's daughter that once integration is completed, she's not only going to be left with her alter's memories, but she's going to be left with Tess' feelings as well. While Jessie has known this before, she begins to finally accept this reality as the truth. But just as all of this is starting to sink in, Tess suddenly surprises her host personality and Dr. Crosby and reappears out of nowhere!

A Fight to the Finish
As all this is going on, Reston arrives to challenge his daughter and Nash over their plot to vanquish him. A struggle soon develops over the businessman's gun, and Claudia proceeds to unceremoniously smash her daddy over the head with a bottle! Reston plunges down on a nail, instantly dying in front of the shocked duo!

With a death on their hands, will Claudia and Nash have to face the legal consequences of their actions, or will Nash be free to return to his daughter back home? And if he does return, who will be there waiting for him: Tess, Jessica or a shocking new combination of the two?
