SCENE 1

BOARD ROOM

Jack walks in dressed in a suit carrying a briefcase.  He places it on the long, center round table and opens it.  Brooke dressed in an

off white power suit walks in.

JACK (sighing):  Brooke.
BROOKE:  I know this can’t be easy for you. 
JACK:  I can’t imagine why Adam would ask me to facilitate the reading of his will.
BROOKE:  I can’t imagine why he’d ask you to deal with his children.
JACK:  No, just JR and Colby.
BROOKE:  His two most difficult children.  Believe me I know.  You know I…still can’t believe he’s gone. 
JACK:  Must be hard for you.
BROOKE:  I’ve come to terms with his death but…of all the men I’ve been with…Adam was it for me, you know?  I know he’s done a lot of things to a lot of people, but he had a side he didn’t show everyone.  He loved me, and in his own way he loved his children.
JACK:  Guess we’re gonna see how much today.

SLOW FADE TO THEME SONG.

ANGIE:  I’mmmm…meeting with the board.
JESSE:  For real?  So you about to…you wanna take over Dr. Martin’s position?
ANGIE:  Maaaaybe I do.
JESSE:  Wow you shootin’ for the stars huh?

JESSE:  Any doctor worth their salt would want that position.  You deserve it.

JACK and BROOKE are presiding over a meeting with JR, COLBY, and DIXIE sitting at the round table.

Jacob Young as JR Chandler

Marci Miller as Colby Chandler

Cady McClain as Dixie Martin

COLBY:  How long is this gonna take? 

JR:  And where are you in a rush to get to?
COLBY:  My spa appointments are very important to me.
JR:  Oh Jesus.
COLBY:  Why is Brooke here?  I hope dad didn’t leave her anything.
JR:  Where’s your mom?
DIXIE:  Shhh can you guys pay attention?  Jack’s about to read the will.
JACK:  Adam called you here for  his last will and testament.

BROOKE GIVES TWO ENVELOPES TO JR, and ONE TO COLBY.

BROOKE:  Before  we start, he changed the deed to the house over to my name.
COLBY:  So dad left you the house?
JR:  Even after you wanted to run off with Dimitri Marick?
JACK:  Okay everybody let’s focus here.
BROOKE:  Adam wants you all to open these.  Dixie you first.

DIXIE OPENS HER ENVELOPE AND READS ITS CONTENTS.

DIXIE:  This…looks like a…statement?
JACK:  It’s your grandson’s trust.  Adam named you the executor.
DIXIE:  Of this?  This is huge.
BROOKE:  Before he died, he told me that he will trust that you will do what’s best for your grandson.
JACK:  And if you read it further, you are compensated for the handling of it.
DIXIE:  Wow.  I…I can’t believe this.
JACK:  JR he wants to open the first envelope marked G.

BROOKE gives JR another envelope.  He opens it and reads its contents.

JR:  What the hell is this?
JACK:  There should be three plane tickets.  One to Geneva, Switzerland, and two for the return trip to Pine Valley.
JR:  Why three?
COLBY:  Duh, I think dad wants you to go to Geneva and bring someone back to Pine Valley.
JR:  Who could that be?
BROOKE:  And he wants you both to open the other envelopes at the same time.

JR AND COLBY both open their envelopes and read the letters.

JR:  I, Adam Chandler, Sr. bequeath twenty percent of my estate, and nineteen percent of Chandler Enterprises?
COLBY:  Mine says the same thing.
JACK:  He divided his estate with you, JR, Skye, Hayley...
COLBY (interrupting Jack):  That’s only four of us. 
JR:  And the nineteen percent of Chandler would only make seventy six.
COLBY:  We’re missing one child.

A GUY OPENS THE DOUBLE DOORS AND WALKS IN.

GUY:  That’s me.

COLBY AND JR turn around.

Jason Canela as Miguel Reyes

.

COLBY:  You gotta be kidding me.
JR:  Miguel Reyes.
JACK:  Yes, Miguel has twenty percent of Adam’s estate…
JR:  And twenty four percent of…Chandler.
MIGUEL:  Nice to see you, too brother.
JACK:  Actually I…contacted Skye and Hayley.  They’ve each agreed to give up their nineteen percent of Chandler, divided among the three remaining children. 
COLBY:  That’s only 38% percent.
BROOKE:  You would be right, but the way they wanted it is, that JR and Colby, you each would end up with 33%, and Miguel you would end up with 34%.
COLBY:  And controlling interest of Chandler.

DIXIE’S CELL PHONE VIBRATES.

DIXIE:  I’ve…I’ve gotta take this.

OUTSIDE THE ROOM, DIXIE ANSWERS THE PHONE.

DIXIE:  Jesse?
JESSE:  Hey I need you to come to my house as soon as possible. 
DIXIE:  I’m in the middle of something…
JESSE:  This is important.  It’s about Tad.  Something's happened.  I need to meet with you right away.
