Kimberly Andrews is a Las Vegas exotic dancer who arrives in Llanview, Pennsylvania in August 2009 to help her best friend Stacy Morasco. Stacy has miscarried her baby with Rex Balsom, and Kim conspires to help Stacy get pregnant again and pass the child off as Rex's. They try Kyle Lewis, Oliver Fish and Schuyler Joplin, but all refuse. Stacy sleeps with a drunken Oliver and gets pregnant again. Kim and Stacy work to break up Gigi and Rex. Running low on money, Kim sets her sights on the wealthy and newly married Clint Buchanan. In November 2009, Schuyler discovers that Stacy lost her baby, and Kim lies and say that Schuyler is the father. Schuyler keeps the secret so he can have Gigi for himself. Kim manipulates her way into a position as his executive assistant, and soon finds out that Clint's wife Nora Hanen has fallen back in love with her ex-husband, Clint's brother Bo Buchanan. In December 2009, Kim arranges for Clint to discover the truth. In January 2010, Clint files for divorce and invites Kim to live at his mansion. Kim gets Schuyler to steal a vial of oxytocin to make Stacy give birth early. In February, Kim is devastated when Stacy falls in a frozen lake and is presumed dead. Kim and Clint marry in March 2010 so she can get custody of Stacy's baby. Kim is blackmailed by David Vickers into leaving Clint and Llanview in April.

Kim later turns up at The Spotted Pony strip club in Anchorage, Kentucky in August 2011 and is spotted by Rex. She is then seen with an unknown woman later revealed to be Stacy. Clint is happy to see Kim again, but later figures out she's been stripping. Clint's daughter Natalie Buchanan then arrives in Llanfair and kicks Kim out of the house. In September, it is revealed that Kim is Cutter Wentworth's real sister, and that her real name is Aubrey Wentworth. It is also revealed that Kim had plastic surgery. She finds out that her brother was inspired to scam the Buchanan family after he read about Kim's marriage to Clint in the newspaper. She later comes face to face with Cutter's girlfriend Christine Karr, the fake Aubrey Wentworth, at the motel room. Kim discovers that Cutter bought a stuffed beaver for Aubrey that Roxy Balsom's gun was hidden in, evidence in the murder case of Victor Lord Jr.. Kim sneaks back into his motel room and steals the gun to blackmail Rex's biological mother Echo DiSavoy to convince her son to hand back the entire Buchanan fortune to Clint, so she can pay her friend's medical bills.

In late September 2011, it is revealed that Kim's friend in the hospital is Stacy. Meanwhile, Cutter finds out Kim's plan but she convinces him to let her continue to blackmail Echo, and he agrees. In October, Kim tells Stacy she got Echo to forge Rex's signature. It's also revealed that Stacy had plastic surgery in South America to look like her sister Gigi so that she could take over her life. Cutter tells Kim that Aubrey broke up with him because she found out about the blackmail, and he blackmails Kim to give him the forged documents. Kim reveals to Stacy what happened several years ago at the Spotted Pony; Cutter enlisted Kim to seduce a rich guy named Mr. Berger, and Cutter snuck too many drugs into his drink, which caused Mr. Berger to die. Cutter and Rama frame Kim for the murder of Mr. Berger. Kim begs Cutter to take care of Stacy while she's in jail.

Rex and Aubrey confront Kim in prison in December 2011 about Stacy being alive and having Gigi's face. Kim agrees to tells them if they can get exonerate her, which they do. Kim tells Clint that Cutter is her brother, that her real name is Aubrey Wentworth, and that her mysterious friend in the Kentucky hospital is Stacy. Clint tells Kim that he has regained feelings for his ex-wife Victoria Lord. Kim leaves Llanfair to confront Rama at Angel Square for helping Cutter put her in prison. When Kim returns, Clint tells her he decided he wants to be with Viki. Kim leaves Llanfair. Soon after, Kim gets a call from Cutter, who tells Kim to help him break out of prison. He also tells her that it was Gigi, not Stacy, that she rescued, and that Stacy really died from carbon monoxide poisoning. Cutter tells Kim that he found their estranged mother Alex Olanov at Rio and wants to scam her. Kim refuses.

Demerest "Duke" Buchanan is the son of Kevin Buchanan and LeeAnn Demerest. On the rebound from a failed romance with Stephanie Hobart, Kevin becomes involved with LeeAnn. They sleep together and LeeAnn becomes pregnant; Kevin finds out in 1992, and he and LeeAnn elope. Their son Duke is born in 1992, but their marriage crumbles over her closeness with Jason Webb. Kevin and LeeAnn divorce, and at one point in the fierce custody battle LeeAnn insists Duke is Max Holden's son. LeeAnn ultimately leaves town for Texas with Duke in 1993.

In 2004, Kevin is married to Kelly Cramer; they become involved in a messy divorce and an even messier custody battle over their son Ace. Somewhat bitter over Kevin's lack of participation in his life so far, an adult Duke comes to town to attend business school and sides with Kelly, even testifying for her in court. Kevin and Kelly's marriage completely collapses when Kevin discovers that Kelly had miscarried their biological child, adopted another baby illegally, and passed him off as theirs; Ace turns out to have been stolen from his biological mother, and a devastated Kevin and Kelly return him.

Meanwhile, Duke has begun a relationship with Adriana Cramer; her mother Dorian Lord has hated the Buchanans for decades and despises the match. But when Adriana breaks up with Duke over her increasing feelings for Rex Balsom, Duke turns to alcohol and admits to Kelly that he has fallen in love with her. She convinces him that his feelings are not real, and they part. Later on in the St. James Church rectory, Duke again comes across Kelly, distraught from a horrible argument with Kevin. Their emotions get the best of them and they have sex, but a tornado hits and they are buried under debris. Critically injured, Duke and Kelly are rushed to Llanview Hospital, where a shortage of surgeons puts Kevin in the impossible position of choosing who will be operated on first. He chooses Kelly, whom he is told by the doctors is in more desperate need. Kevin is devastated when Duke dies on May 15, 2006 before he can be brought into surgery.

Initially blaming Kelly for Duke's death, Kevin goes off the deep end when he learns that Kelly is pregnant with Duke's child. Having both had fertility issues in the past, Kevin and Kelly begin to view the pregnancy as a blessing, and are brought closer together. Kevin is by Kelly's side when Duke's son Zane is born on October 31, 2006. Kelly accepts Kevin's invitation to accompany him to London, where they can start over and raise Zane together.

Tina soon acquires the jewels from corrupt Llanview Police Commissioner Lee Ramsey, who has stolen them at her request, but soon Ramsey is gunned down and Tina is on the run with the jewels from the sinister Jonas, who wants them for himself. Tina finds refuge with her estranged daughter Sarah Roberts and Sarah's boyfriend Cristian Vega; Llanview police officer Talia Sahid inexplicably aids Jonas in kidnapping Sarah, and soon Cristian and his brother (and Talia's boyfriend), Police Detective Antonio Vega discover that Jonas has both women. Tina and the Vegas agree to accompany Jonas back to Mendorra in order to make an exchange: Sarah and Talia for the Crown Jewels.

In Mendorra, Talia's estranged father is revealed to be villain Carlo Hesser, the real mastermind behind the kidnappings. Talia despises Carlo, a longtime enemy of both Tina and the Vega brothers. Carlo, bent on revenge for Tina's part in his son's death in 1990, announces publicly that she and the Crown Prince (Cain Rogan in disguise) are frauds, and reveals Jonas as the true heir to the throne. Carlo intends to marry Talia to Jonas; she protests and stalls, but goes through with the royal wedding on July 31, 2008 to save Antonio and her friends from harm — not knowing that Jonas has already stabbed Antonio and left him for dead.

Antonio, Sarah, and Cristian later return; they drug Carlo and Jonas and stage them in bed together, and Talia leads a team of reporters to discover the scene.

Elijah "Eli" Clarke (born Elijah Clarke Rayburn) is a fictional character on the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. The role was portrayed by Matt Walton from 2009 through 2010.

Storyline

Elijah Clarke first appeared in Llanview in August 2009, when Nora and Bo Buchanan hired him to represent them in a lawsuit filed by their son, Matthew, who was seeking the right to undergo surgery that could restore the use of his legs. When Matthew's attorney, Tea Delgado, threatened to reveal to the court that Bo and Nora had shared a kiss the night prior to Nora's marriage to Bo's brother, Clint, Eli turned the tables on her. Eli told Tea that he was aware of certain things about her that could potentially destroy her relationship with Todd Manning. The normally unshakable Tea was disturbed by the threat, and agreed to keep quiet.

Tea became unnerved when she learned Todd had hired Elijah to win back custody of his children. Tea told Eli she knew that he was working for Ross Rayburn, the man with whom she had been marooned with on deserted island years earlier after Todd had left her for his ex-wife Blair Cramer. She told Eli that she refused to give into Ross' blackmail demands and return to him what he believes she took from him. It was soon revealed that Tea had married Ross in Tahiti, where Ross was still living as a fugitive. When Todd proposed to her, Tea begged Ross to grant her a divorce. Tea was relieved when Eli presented her with signed divorce papers from Ross, not realizing that Ross never filed the papers.

After Blair brought Ross to Llanview in a failed attempt to disrupt Tea and Todd's wedding, it was revealed that Tea had gotten pregnant after the island escapade and given birth to a child. Ross had assumed that the child was his, but it was Todd's. Ross broke into Todd's home and attempted to steal Tea's briefcase, which contained information on the whereabouts of the child, but was caught and arrested. Ross called upon Eli to help bail him out of jail, and Eli nearly stole the briefcase that was in police evidence before reconsidering. While behind bars, Ross begged Eli to get him out of jail so he could search for "his" child, and it came to light that Ross and Eli were actually brothers.

After he got Ross released from jail, Eli hired a private investigator to dig through Tea's phone records and tracked down her child to the Warwick Academy in London. When Eli told Ross that he could not leave the country to go after "his" child, a teenaged girl by the name of Danielle, Ross punched out Eli, and left. Eli told Tea what had happened, and they both boarded a plane for London. While en route to London, Tea confessed that Todd was really Danielle's father. After Danielle ran away to Seattle with new friend Matthew, Eli and Tea followed after them. Ross tracked them down as well. After Tea told him that he was not Danielle's father, Ross had a breakdown and took Danielle and Blair hostage. The situation came to an end on a bridge at the Canada–US border, where Todd shot Ross, and Ross fell into the icy water to his presumed death.

Eli decided to remain in Llanview to help Danielle cope with Ross' death. He shared a brief flirtation with Tea, but her heart belonged to Todd. Blair decided that she and Eli could console each other and threw herself at him, and the two began a friends with benefits relationship. Eli expressed jealousy over Blair's relationship with Todd, but Blair assured him that she was over Todd permanently. The two slowly began moving toward an exclusive relationship, and Blair even opened up to him about the death of her son, Brenden, after she got into a car accident with her cousin, Kelly Cramer. After a day in court, Tea fainted and Eli took her to the hospital, where she agreed to get checked out. Later, Eli grabbed a file Blair had been looking at and read it, discovering that Tea had been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Eli agreed not to say anything to Tea, who believed only Blair knew about her death sentence. Blair later confessed that Eli was aware of Tea's illness and he told Tea he would do anything to help her through her ordeal.

On August 18, Blair and Eli eloped to Tahiti to get married. After the ceremony, Kelly called Blair in the middle of their honeymoon. Kelly convinced her cousin that she had proof Eli was really Bennett Thompson and Craig Pattison, and that he had killed his first wife, Olivia Thompson, his second wife, their aunt Melinda Cramer, plus Rodney and Glenn. Kelly told Blair that John McBain had a warrant for Eli's arrest. Blair confronted Eli, who at first denied everything, claiming his brother Ross was the one responsible for all of the crimes. Refusing to believe his lies, Blair pulled a gun on Eli and demanded he tell her the truth. Eli confessed to all of it, even admitting to pushing Marty Saybrooke down a flight of stairs, which caused her to miscarry her and John's baby, but insisting, "That was an accident right there". Eli tried to convince Blair that he had married her for love and that they belonged together. Just as Blair was about to let her guard down, Eli tried to take the gun away from her. As they struggled for the weapon, Eli attempted to distract Blair by kissing her. Suddenly, a shot was fired. It was revealed that Blair shot Eli, who collapsed to the ground. His last words were "Blair, how could you... I loved you..." and he lost consciousness. A devastated Blair was in shock as Ross' house caught fire, and she tried to rouse Eli to save him from the burning building, without success. John rescued Blair, but was unable to do the same for Eli, as the fire was raging and the house was on the verge of collapsing. Ross arrived and tried to save his brother. The Tahitian police confirmed that Elijah Clarke Rayburn was dead and the autopsy was pending. A week after Eli's death was confirmed, it was revealed it was staged, with the help of Ross. Later he was found in St Kitts, in the hospice where Tea was being treated. Greg falsely diagnosed Eli with a hematoma and suggested he go into surgery to fix it, but that was an excuse for Greg to get Eli on the operating table and kill him. Eli knew that Greg was lying, tried to kill him, and escaped to Llanview.

Ross found Eli in the docks to tell him that he got custody of Dani, but she ran away. Eli was furious about that, stating that he worked too hard for Ross to get Dani back, and he just blew it. Ross was wondering why Dani's disappearance was a big issue to Eli. He put two and two together, and figured that Eli killed Tea. After Ross came to that conclusion, Eli shot and killed Ross, and dumped his body in the water. Todd arrived and shot Eli, but he escaped. Eli killed the babysitter, and then kidnapped Starr, Hope, and Dani. Starr managed to escape, and he kidnapped Tea. He pulled a ransom on Todd for 50 million dollars or, in Todd's eyes, Starr, Hope, and Dani die. Todd went to the ransom site to do the exchange, but Eli changed the rules, and demanded that Blair come with Todd. Blair accepted at first, but played him at the last minute. Eli admitted he had the warehouse rigged with 20 blocks of C4, and blew up the warehouse. Eli was arrested and put into police custody. Cole just happened to be next to him. Eli taunted Cole, who snapped, shot, and killed Eli. Marty came by and said, "Oh my God, Cole, he's dead". Cole replied, "Good, he should be."

The next day Antonio sees Liz in Llanview, and it is revealed that she is Liz Coleman Reynolds, the mother of Keri Reynolds — Antonio’s fiancée. Liz becomes pregnant, and tells Keri that the baby is her deceased husband's. With the pregnancy threatening Liz's health, Keri soon agrees to act as a surrogate mother. With the transfer a success, Antonio seeks a paternity test. He is proven to be the father, and he and Liz decide to withhold the information from Keri.

Liz decides to stay in Llanview and renews her relationship with R. J. Gannon, who is revealed to be Keri's father. R.J. soon learns the truth about the baby, and is on the verge of telling Keri when Antonio handcuffs R.J. to a booth in the Angel Square Diner. Antonio tells Keri that the baby is his, and Keri goes into premature labor. Keri gives birth to a baby girl, and later tests prove that the surrogacy had actually failed and that Keri had already been pregnant with Antonio's child herself. Hating Antonio, R.J. helps Keri, Liz, and baby "Stephanie" sneak out of town. Their plane crashes, leaving no survivors, and Antonio is devastated at the loss of Keri and their daughter. Months later, Natalie Buchanan begins to suspect that R.J. is up to something, and soon discovers that Keri and Stephanie had never gotten on the plane and had been hiding out in Toronto. After returning to Llanview, Keri reveals that she renamed her daughter Jamie and that Liz had actually died in the plane crash.

He is soon revealed as Paul Cramer's murderer;[14] Paul had been blackmailing Daniel with the secret of Daniel's homosexuality.[15] Daniel had been having an affair with student Mark Solomon. Daniel first frames Jennifer Rappaport, Riley's girlfriend, for the crime, and then sufficates her by holding a piece of plastic over her mouth and nose, when she begins to suspect him.[16] when she learns the truth. Daniel is ultimately caught and sent to prison.

Reception

"The reaction, even at the Emmys, has been amazing. I know people are having trouble with this story. But that's exactly why it's important for us to tell it."[17]

Hillary B. Smith (Nora Buchanan) on Daniel's outing story arc

Daniel's controversial[17] storyline was compared to former New Jersey Governor, James McGreevy, which Headwriter at the time Dena Higley attributed the character's inspiration to.[15] The portrayal of a homicidal gay character garnered backlash from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD),[14] who claimed it reinforced negative stereotypes.[15][17] GLAAD had recently honored One Life to Live with a 2004 GLAAD Media Award for Mark Solomon's coming out storyline.[15] The organization reached out directly to Executive Producer, Frank Valentini, who responded, "The anger is understandable, but everyone needs to watch all of it. This is a story about the harsher side of intolerance and about one man not being true to himself. There are going to be meaningful, frank discussions that come out of this."[15] Higley added,"Daniel is not the first gay character on 'OLTL.' If he had been, I would have felt a different responsibility. But writing a political ambitious character who is deep in the closet and who murders as a result is something that hasn't been explored before on daytime."[17] While some groups shared in GLAAD's criticism, such as TV Guide,[15] others were supportive. Hillary B. Smith, who played Daniel's wife Nora, explained that support groups such as Straight Spouse Network praised the story for bringing attention to those women who are dealing with their husbands identifying as gay.[17]

Wes Granger is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Justin Paul Kahn played the role from September 25, 2008 until February 18, 2009.

Wes Granger first appears in September 2008 when Rex Balsom and Gigi Morasco contact him for information on his best friend Brody Lovett. A former Navy SEAL who had done several tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, Wes had served with Brody, and had witnessed the friendly fire incident that triggered Brody's Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Wes helps find Brody, who has made off with Gigi's son Shane Morasco. After Brody is committed to St. Ann's Sanitarium, Wes comes to Llanview and becomes a frequent visitor during Brody's convalescence. As Brody undergoes therapy, Wes urges him not to delve deeper into the mystery, but ultimately admits that the Iraqi had been unarmed, and Wes had planted a weapon on him to protect Brody.

Wes forms a friendship with the troubled amnesiac Marty Saybrooke. Marty stays with Wes in a platonic arrangement, and her son Cole Thornhart and former love interest John McBain become concerned that she has taken up with a questionable stranger. Wes is shocked to discover that the key witness in a local trial is Lee Halpern, a woman whom he thought had been killed 20 years before. Con artist Lee had seduced Wes' father and swindled him, leaving the Grangers penniless and fatherless. Wes is hungry for revenge, and when Lee is later found stabbed to death, John suspects him of the crime. Wes maintains his innocence, but even Marty is unsure whether or not to believe him. Falling asleep next to Wes drunk, Marty wakes up on February 16, 2009 to find him stabbed to death. With no memory of the night before and covered in his blood, Marty is arrested for Wes' murder when her fingerprints are found on the knife. Powell Lord III later confesses to the murder (among others), as part of his plan to punish anyone who has hurt Marty, frame Todd, and then punish him by killing him and anyone he loves.

In 2011, Jessica Buchanan, who met Wes a few times during her stay in St. Ann's, developed an alternate personality based on memories of him and stories she heard from Brody. Unlike Jessica's other alters, "Wes" seems to believe that "he" actually is Wes Granger rather than a part of Jessica's psyche.

Tate Harmon is a well-known, young, retired professional baseball player. An anti-drug lecturer, Tate comes to Llanview in February 2007 and speaks out against steroid use at Llanview High School. He is soon hired by entrepreneurs Adriana Cramer and Layla Williamson to be the model for their new men's underwear line. Tate's romantic interest in Adriana invites the ire of her boyfriend, Rex Balsom. On April 23, 2007, Tate is a guest on the daytime talk show The View and declares his love for Adriana in a "Tom Cruise-like" couch incident. After meeting Tate's ex-wife, who claims their marriage ended due to fraud on Tate's part, Rex outs Tate as gay on local television; the story is soon picked up nationwide.

Rex's assertion is soon proven untrue, but Tate hides another secret: he is a member of the white supremacist group "One Pure People." Using half-Latin Adriana as a cover, Tate has been participating in OPP's recent anti-semitic and racially motivated arsons in Llanview. Tate's father Kirk Harmon comes to town and soon takes the blame for the crimes to protect his son, but when Kirk realizes that Tate will not stop his misguided crusade, Kirk decides to tell the truth to the police. Before he has the chance, Kirk is killed in prison by an OPP member, but Rex, Adriana and the police ultimately deduce that Tate is the culprit. In a macabre endgame, Tate traps Adriana, Layla, and Vincent Jones on a rooftop, intending to kill them for their racial "impurity." Rex arrives, and Tate convinces Adriana to jump off of the roof to spare the lives of her friends. Tipped off to Tate's whereabouts, Officer Talia Sahid shoots and arrests him before Adriana jumps or anyone else is harmed. Tate is convicted for his crimes and is sent to Statesville Prison on August 9, 2007; to his dismay, his cellmate is an African American named Luther.

Dr. Stephen Haver is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Matthew Ashford[24] portrayed the role from December 10, 2003 until March 22, 2004.

Stephen Haver is a psychology professor at Llanview University who specializes in human sexuality and researches serial killers and sexual predators. He becomes a favorite instructor of Jessica Buchanan, who recruits him along with psychiatrist Rae Cummings and student activist and radio host Marcie Walsh to help her expose a scandal between her friend and another professor who had demanded sex in return for a passing grade. When the serial killer known as the "Music Box Killer" begins terrorizing the university, Jessica and Dr. Haver investigate with Haver and Rae acting as psychological profilers for the Llanview Police Department. Haver works closely with new Chief of Detectives John McBain, but no one is aware that Haver and the "Music Box Killer" are actually one and the same.

The Music Box Killer strangles his victims with a red leotard, paints a teardrop on their faces, and leaves a music box by their bodies as a calling card. He sometimes targets women at random, such as private investigator Elyssa Collins or sorority girl Madison Kensington, but seems to focus on women who are either older and maternal, or promiscuous and involved in sex work, like Jennifer Rappaport or her friend Karen, a local prostitute. In reality, Haver is murdering women who he identifies with his mother, a promiscuous, alcoholic dancer and folk singer from the "free love" era of the 1960s. For a time, Haver uses psychotic mental patient Troy MacIver as his alibi; as MacIver's therapist at St. Ann's Sanitarium, Haver releases the man from the institution at the times when he plans to kill. As the authorities get closer, Haver kills Police Commissioner Bo Buchanan's girlfriend Gabrielle Medina, and nearly kills Sarah Roberts. Meanwhile, John McBain grows increasingly suspicious of Haver, who becomes his prime suspect in the case. Jessica angrily defends her teacher to McBain, but when she stumbles upon the truth, Haver is forced to take action. He kidnaps Jessica, and brainwashes her to conceal his crimes. In the meantime, Rae Cummings also deduces Haver's secret; he takes her hostage, forcing her to act out his twisted psychological ritual of posing as his mother before apparently strangling her and then immolating her isolated prison.

The LPD discovers Jessica's brainwashing and rehabilitates her, but they still have no actionable proof of Haver's guilt. As John McBain digs deeper into Haver's past, he discovers that Haver has actually posed as many serial killers in many different parts of the United States, changing methodology and modus operandi each time to avoid detection. John is shocked to learn that Haver was once the "White Rose Killer," who he had hunted unsuccessfully during his tenure with the FBI; and had murdered McBain's fiancée Caitlin Fitzgerald.

Trapped and growing desperate, Haver abducts Jessica's sister Natalie Buchanan, to whom John has become romantically linked. In a stand-off with police, Haver straps a bomb to Natalie's body and threatens to kill her. Haver is shocked as Rae Cummings suddenly enters the room — she had survived his assault, and had been kept in police protection. Taunting Haver with the memory of his mother, the focus of his psychosis, Rae manages to distract Haver long enough for the police to subdue him. While behind bars and awaiting trial, Haver is shot and killed by a rogue cop. It is revealed that Haver brainwashed the cop to shoot him and then commit suicide, in the hopes of framing John for Haver's "murder" (the cop implicated John as an accomplice in his suicide note); his plan does not succeed.

Hugh comes to Llanview as the new Assistant District Attorney. He soon runs into Marcie Walsh, who is being ridiculed by other writers after her novel The Killing Club had been played out by a serial killer. He gives up his evening to take the drunken Marcie home, beginning an unusual friendship between the playboy Hugh and writer Marcie, much to the annoyance of her ex-boyfriend Michael McBain.

Hugh is soon thrown into the seat of district attorney as Nora Hanen is hospitalized. His first big case is the trial of Todd Manning for the murder of pregnant Margaret Cochran. Todd is convicted, but when it is discovered that Todd had been innocent, Hugh immediately apologizes to him for having been the one to put him in prison. Hugh then discovers that doctors Spencer Truman and Paige Miller are his biological parents; Paige had put him up for adoption without telling the evil Spencer that she was pregnant.[26] At Spencer's bail hearing for Margaret Cochran's murder, it appears that Hugh wants Spencer to go free when he agrees to offer him a $1 million bail. However, he and Detective John McBain had planned it in the hopes that Truman would lead them to the gun that he used to kill John's father, Thomas McBain.

Hugh is killed on September 22, 2006 in a car accident, but in a case of mistaken identity he is thought to have survived and been bandaged for his burns. In reality, it is John McBain (who had also been in the accident) under the bandages while Hugh is buried in what everyone thought was John's grave.

Katrina Bowden (as pictured in 2012) briefly originated the role of Britney in 2006.

Britney is the "popular girl" at Llanview High School and bullies freshman Starr Manning after an argument between their fathers Todd Manning and Blake Jennings. Britney's attitude toward Starr worsens when Britney sets her sights on football player Cole Thornhart, who is developing feelings for Starr. Trying everything to thwart Starr and Cole's new relationship, Britney discovers that Cole had been pressured into taking steroids, and tricks him into a fit of "roid rage" during which he attacks Starr. Britney, posing as Starr, calls the police. In the aftermath, it is revealed that Cole's parents are Marty Saybrooke and the deceased Patrick Thornhart, both enemies of Starr's father Todd. Starr forgives Cole but her parents forbid her to date him. They secretly see each other, much to Britney's dismay, and Britney does all she can to split them up. She orchestrates the reveal that Starr and Cole have spent the night together, nearly having sex. Starr and Cole run away together, but are caught and forced to break up. They are soon drawn back together. Meanwhile, Britney uses fellow student Henry Mackler to do her homework for her. He secretly takes pills to stay awake to do both his and Britney's homework. After not having slept for two weeks, a distraught Henry steals a car, meanwhile having chest pains and blurred vision. Cole manages to get Henry to drive back to school. However, when they arrive to find the police in the parking lot, Henry panics and drives the car into a tree. Henry — not wearing a seatbelt — is thrown from the car to his death. Starr and Langston place blame on Britney for pushing Henry to this extreme; Britney begins to see that she had wronged Henry, and feels responsible for his death.

Britney seems to turn over a new leaf, dropping her vendetta against Starr. But after Cole leaves her at the prom to be with Starr, Britney reverts to her old ways. Soon she learns that Cole is lying to Starr about her father's whereabouts; the secret comes out and strains Starr and Cole's relationship. Britney then incites an argument between Starr and teacher Marcie, which results in Marcie's temporary suspension from her job. Britney soon announces during the week of October 15, 2007 that her parents are sending her to a prestigious boarding school in Massachusetts. Before she leaves, Britney overhears that Langston has been living on her own; Britney calls Social Services, who take custody of Langston — despite Dorian Lord's protests — and put her in a group home pending assignment to a foster home.

Schuyler Joplin is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Scott Clifton portrayed the role from January 9, 2009 until April 9, 2010.[28][29]

Schuyler Joplin, a new Llanview High School teacher, befriends student Starr Manning in January 2009 on the heels of the suicide of his mother, Dr. Leah Joplin. In March 2009, a distraught Starr kisses Schuyler in the school hallway. She later tries to seduce him, and her ex-boyfriend Cole Thornhart becomes convinced that Schuyler is the one trying to seduce his underage student. Cole reports the incident, and Schuyler is suspended from his teaching position. Schuyler's ex-girlfriend Stacy Morasco comes to town, and he stumbles upon her plot to steal her sister Gigi's boyfriend Rex Balsom through blackmail. Stacy forces Gigi to break up with Rex, and in June 2009 Schuyler helps Gigi turn the tables on Stacy. He soon develops feelings for Gigi but refuses to tell her; when he finally does, he and Gigi grow closer. Rex and Gigi reunite, but their relationship falls apart when Stacy is revealed to be pregnant after sleeping with Rex while he and Gigi were separated. Gigi is drawn to Schuyler, and they begin a relationship; meanwhile, Schuyler determines that he is actually the father of Stacy's baby, but Stacy convinces him to keep the secret so that Gigi will not reunite with Rex. Rex learns that he is not the baby's father just as Stacy gives birth to Sierra Morasco. Stacy apparently dies soon after; Gigi breaks up with Schuyler for keeping the secret, and states her intention to challenge him for custody of Sierra.

In spring 2010, Allison Perkins shows up masquerading as a house inspector from child services at Schuyler's apartment, and later points a gun at Schuyler and then kidnaps Sierra. Schuyler goes to Statesville prison and helps Mitch Laurence escape. Meanwhile, Allison shows up at Foxy Roxy's hair salon, and then holds Roxy Balsom and Natalie Buchanan at gunpoint. Allison then takes Roxy and baby Sierra back to Kyle Lewis and Oliver Fish's apartment and holds them hostage. Then Mitch calls Allison and tells her to come down to Statesville prison and bring Sierra with her. In the medical room Schuyler gives Mitch a drug that will make his heart stop and hopes that he will die. Later Allison shows up with the baby and reveals that Mitch and Roxy are Schuyler's real parents. Years earlier, Allison had switched infants Schuyler and Rex and tried to convince Roxy that the baby she'd given birth to had died the night he was born, while she gave Schuyler to her sister, Dr. Leah Joplin, who could not conceive children of her own.

Later, Schuyler takes Allison's gun and holds Gigi at gunpoint at the cabin of Victoria "Viki" Lord Davidson, and tries to force Gigi to sleep with him. He once more says that he wants Gigi back in his life, but Rex and the police find them. He attempts to shoot Rex, blaming him for all his problems, but ends up shooting police commissioner Bo Buchanan, who is badly wounded and taken to the hospital for surgery. Brody Lovett arrests Schuyler and takes him to the police station. Everyone eventually accepts the truth and Schuyler finds out that Sierra is not his daughter, she is Oliver's child as confirmed by a DNA test which Schuyler also accepts. On April 9, 2010, Schuyler appears in court and confesses to the judge, who sends him to Statesville prison where he is to await sentencing.

Samuel "Sam" Manning is the son of Victor Lord Jr. and the late Margaret Cochran. He was adopted by Blair Cramer. Sam was born on screen on February 6, 2006, however, it was changed to July 15, 2004.

Storylines

Long obsessed with Victor (as Todd Manning) and causing trouble for him and his family, mentally unstable Margaret Cochran appears on his wedding day to ex-wife Blair Cramer. When he refuses to leave with her willingly, she shoots both his knees, kidnaps him, and holds him hostage. Wanting a child by Todd, Margaret ultimately rapes him; he allows it to happen to keep Margaret from murdering Blair. Margaret disappears and Todd and Blair are later reunited; a pregnant Margaret returns to Llanview, Pennsylvania but is murdered. Todd is tried, convicted, and sentenced to death for the crime; he is administered the lethal injection but revived at the very last second by his enemy Dr. Spencer Truman as proof surfaces that Margaret is alive. With no memory of her time in Llanview, Margaret is first unable to recall even having a child; soon the memories come flooding back. It is revealed that Spencer had taken Margaret in, orchestrated her "murder", and framed Todd. Spencer had delivered Margaret's baby whom she unofficially named Todd Manning Jr. on February 6, 2006,[31] and had then disposed of it in a black market adoption. Margaret dies following a van wreck before she can reveal all the details.

Todd hires young private investigator Rex Balsom to find his son in late 2006. Rex soon discovers that the child is actually his own godson: Tommy, the adopted son of close friend Marcie and her new husband, Dr. Michael McBain. Familiar with the McBains' devotion to Tommy and knowing that they would be devastated if he were taken away, Rex is unsure what to do; he is also aware of Todd's volatile behavior, above-the-law history and selfishness. Perceiving Todd's consideration of his missing son as nothing more than a lost possession, Rex decides to keep the secret. Rex's girlfriend Adriana Cramer and later Michael himself become part of the conspiracy to keep Tommy with the McBains. Rex goes as far as faking a death certificate for Todd's missing child to get Todd to give up the search. An unhinged Spencer is murdered; in the wake of his death, hints to the whereabouts of Todd's son begin to surface, prompting Todd to resume his search. Spencer's killer is finally revealed to be Lindsay Rappaport, who loves Marcie like a daughter. Lindsay had discovered Tommy's true identity and had stabbed Spencer to bury the secret forever. But at the same time Lindsay is arrested, the rest of Spencer's final plan plays out as his heir Miles Laurence gives Todd proof that Spencer orchestrated the adoption of Todd's son by the McBains.

Todd takes the McBains to court to win custody of his son, and both sides malign each other in a bitter battle. On October 9, 2007, Todd is awarded custody. As he arrives at the McBains' to pick up his son, Marcie escapes out a window with Tommy and flees town. Pursued by Todd, FBI agent Lee Ramsey, and her brother-in-law Detective John McBain, Marcie and Tommy travel under assumed names to Decatur, Georgia, then New Orleans and finally Paris, Texas. A disguised Marcie walks into the Bon Jour Café, not realizing that Llanview matriarch (and Todd's sister) Victoria "Viki" Lord Davidson has been working there incognito to temporarily escape her life. Marcie befriends waitress Gigi Morasco, who soon discovers Marcie's identity but promises not to turn Marcie in.

With Marcie and his son still at large, Todd announces on December 20, 2007 that "Tommy" will be renamed "Sam Manning," in honor of his deceased mentor and friend, Sam Rappaport. Having unknowingly avoided Viki for weeks, Marcie soon comes face to face with her; when Todd and John appear at the Bon Jour, a desperate Marcie holds Viki at gunpoint. The FBI and police soon surround the diner; Marcie's doctor husband Michael is sent in to help an ailing Viki, becoming Marcie's willing prisoner as Viki is released to get medical attention. Michael is temporarily reunited with his former adopted son "Tommy." Michael manages to convince Marcie to surrender; they will lose their child but will still have each other for support. On January 14, 2008, Todd's son Sam is finally returned to him. Later that year, Todd gets into a car accident, with Sam not in a carseat. Blair, Starr, and Starr's friends testify to Todd's recent violent and unstable behavior, and Todd loses custody of Sam to his estranged wife Blair. On June 10, 2011 Sam befriends a mysterious man named T.M. (later revealed to his uncle Todd.)

He celebrated his seventh birthday on the episode first-run July 15, 2011 with his family at Todd's house. On his birthday, Sam was kidnapped by his "imaginary friend", who is actually the man with Todd's original face, disguised as Spider-Man who entertained him and his family at his birthday party. Sam later rescues his great aunt Dorian Lord after she is kidnapped by Echo DiSavoy and taken hostage at the Minute Man Motel (which is also the place where his "imaginary friend" took him to after he kidnaps him), and he does this while wearing a Spider-Man mask! He also sprays Echo with foam made spider webs that put her trapped against a wall! Police Detective John McBain soon finds Echo, Dorian, and Sam at the motel, and John returns Sam to his family at Todd's house to continue celebrating his birthday party. In August 2011, it is revealed that Sam's father "Todd" was actually Todd's identical twin brother Victor Lord Jr., who had been brainwashed into believing that he is Todd. On August 31, 2011, Sam's father, Victor is apparently murdered by the "real" Todd Manning. In the final months of the series, Sam grows increasingly close to Victor Jr.'s twin and his uncle, Todd. On the series finale, it is revealed that Sam's father, Victor Jr., is alive but being held captive.

Paige teams up with Spencer's brother David Vickers to determine Spencer's real reason for coming to Llanview. In April 2006, the secret comes out: as a youth, David had shot police detective Thomas McBain, father of Detective John McBain. At the hospital, Paige had operated on Thomas despite the fact that she was intoxicated, and McBain had died. Spencer had covered up both crimes. David is arrested, and Paige's license to practice medicine is revoked. Later in 2006, however, it is revealed that Spencer actually shot McBain and framed Paige to keep a hold over her.

Ray Montez is a fictional character on the ABC Daytime serial One Life to Live. The role was played by actor A Martinez from September through June 2009.[39][42][43][44]

Character history

Introduced as a prisoner in a Colombian maximum security prison, Ray appears onscreen found by Jared Banks September 10, 2008. Hoping to make amends with Buchanan family patriarch Clint, Jared seeks Ray's help in securing leverage against Dorian Lord, who has taken over Buchanan Enterprises. Clint and Jared plan to convince Ray, the only known parental blood relative of Dorian's foster daughter Langston Wilde, to seek custody of the teen, assuming that Dorian will return the company to the Buchanans in exchange for Ray's relinquishing his rights to Langston. Using his connections, Clint has arranged Ray's "exoneration" and release through the corrupt warden of Plato Prison. Ray agrees to Jared and Clint's proposition, and accompanies Jared back to Llanview, Pennsylvania.

Meanwhile, international crime boss Carlo Hesser kidnaps his nemesis Cristian Vega, and has him interred in Plato Prison, conspiring with the warden to give Cristian the prison jumpsuit worn by Cristian and imprison him under Ray's name. Cristian escapes the prison when he meets Ray's wife Vanessa, who bribes the warden for Cristian's freedom. Vanessa alleges that Ray wants her dead for testifying against him at his trial, where he stood accused of the murder of his first wife, the mother of his daughter Lola. Vanessa is anxious to accompany Cristian to Llanview with Lola, unaware that Ray is there as well.

Once in Llanview, Clint sets his plan into motion, and Ray crashes Langston and Dorian's party celebrating Langston's adoption. Upon introducing himself to his niece, Ray quickly grows fond of Langston, reminiscing about his past with his late sister Linda, Langston's mother. Soon thereafter, Ray pursues and is granted custody of Langston, and announces his intention to take her back to Colombia with him. Though this is still a part of Clint's gambit against Dorian, Ray is seemingly torn between his deal with Clint and his own burgeoning feelings for Langston, who desperately wants to remain in Llanview with her adoptive Cramer family and new friends. Ray gains custody, and Dorian refuses Clint's offer to have Ray relinquish his rights in exchange for Dorian signing Buchanan Enterprises back to him. At the airport with Langston, Ray comes face to face with Vanessa, who shoots him in front of everyone. She is arrested; a critically injured Ray tells the police detective Antonio Vega that Vanessa had framed him for his first wife's murder, but Antonio is doubtful. Meanwhile, Cristian defends Vanessa in court, and Langston befriends her newfound cousin Lola. Ray is sent back to Colombia, and Vanessa and Lola are soon threatened with deportation as well. Fearing retribution from Ray should she return to Colombia, Vanessa asks Cristian to do the only thing that can keep her in the United States: marry her. Initially reluctant because of his relationship with Sarah Roberts, Cristian ultimately marries Vanessa when an anonymous note threatens her life. Lawyer Téa Delgado is secretly representing Ray, seeking to prove that Vanessa had framed him for his wife's murder. Téa begins to win over Lola as Ray escapes prison again and confronts Vanessa in Llanview; she denies murdering Lola's mother, but admits in front of everyone that she had framed Ray as a way to take his money. Vanessa is deported on February 26, 2009,[45] and Ray is exonerated.

To Dorian's chagrin, Ray and Lola are invited to move into Dorian's mansion La Boulaie by its short-term owners, Moe and Noelle Stubbs. Ray and Dorian eventually end up bonding as they fight, and share a kiss. Lola goes after the affections of Langston's boyfriend Markko Rivera; he rebuffs her advances and tells Langston, putting the couple at odds with Lola. Vowing revenge, Lola tries to thwart their plans to have sex and eventually pokes holes in the condoms they intend to use; taking drugs at the prom, Lola later confesses this act to ray and Dorian, as well as the fact that she had been the one to kill her own mother after catching her in bed with another man. Lola is brought to St. Ann's Sanitarium for evaluation. Ray leaves town on June 10, 2009 after telling a crushed Dorian that he has sent Lola to a facility out of town, and plans to join her himself.[44]

Occupation Las Vegas stripper

Stacy Morasco is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Crystal Hunt originated the role on February 6, 2009[48] and played the role until March 9, 2010. Farah Fath, who played Stacy's sister Gigi Morasco, portrayed Stacy for a series of flashbacks on October 11, December 22 and December 23, 2011. Hunt reprised the role during the series finale week on January 9, 2012.

Casting

Hunt's casting as Stacy was announced in December 2008, as "a bad girl with a connection to someone in Llanview."[48] In 2005 the actress received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series[49] and a Soap Opera Digest Award nomination for her portrayal of Lizzie Spaulding on Guiding Light.

Of Hunt's February 2010 exit, One Life to Live Executive Producer Frank Valentini said, "It was time for Stacy to leave the canvas. Sometimes it's great when the audience hates a character. It keeps them involved and we certainly don't want to make them mad, but some people, you just don't like and yet they're in your world and they do tend to cause some excitement, so that's not a bad thing. It was storyline-dictated and it was time to help propel all of the other characters into major story."[50] In the same article, Soap Opera Digest noted that the character of Stacy had "never clicked with viewers and critics."[50]

Storylines

Stacy Morasco, younger sister to Gigi, is first seen on February 6, 2009 as a Las Vegas stripper named "Gigi." She begins spying on Gigi and Rex Balsom, later following them back to Llanview.[51] Gigi is thrilled to see her, but devastated by the news that their parents had died in a car crash years before, and Stacy's own struggles since.[52] Stacy makes fast friends with Gigi and Rex's son Shane, although Gigi is somewhat uncomfortable with Stacy's influence. Gigi also begins to suspect that her sister is trying to seduce Rex. After Shane is diagnosed with leukemia in March 2009, Stacy learns of a matching donor. Wanting Rex for herself, she pretends that she is the match and forces Gigi to break up with Rex in exchange for her blood. Shane receives the transplant and improves, but Gigi is afraid to reveal Stacy's blackmail in case Shane needs more of her stem cells. Eventually, Gigi tells the truth, but in the meantime Stacy and Rex have slept together. Rex and Gigi reunite as Stacy's blackmail is revealed. Rex spurns Stacy, but she discovers that she is pregnant. She miscarries but keeps the truth from Rex knowing that it is her only hold over him. Stacy calls her stripper best friend Kimberly Andrews to come to Llanview, who comes up with a plan to help get Stacy pregnant again to pass the baby off as Rex's. She drugs ex-boyfriend Schuyler Joplin but he refuses her. She becomes pregnant after seducing a drunken Oliver Fish. In November 2009 Schuyler finds out that Stacy lost her baby with Rex, and Kim tells Schuyler that he is the baby's father. Schuyler agrees to keep the truth from Rex so that he can have Gigi for himself. In January 2010 Rex's crazed biological father Mitch Laurence tries to kidnap Stacy to raise her baby as his heir. Kim and Stacy tells Schuyler to steal a drug called oxytocin so Stacy can give birth a month before her due date to pass the baby as Rex's. On February 2, 2010 Stacy is kidnapped by Mitch Laurence. When she reveals that the baby is not Rex's, Mitch abandons Stacy in a blizzard. Gigi finds her, takes her to a cabin, and on February 11, 2010 helps Stacy deliver a baby girl she names Sierra Rose. On February 16, 2010, Stacy falls through the ice of a frozen lake; despite Rex and Oliver's attempts to save her, she disappears beneath the ice and is presumed dead.[50] Days later, Stacy's spirit appears to Kim several times to get Kim's assurance that she will do all she can to care for Sierra.

On August 22, 2011, Kimberly, who is in Anchorage, Kentucky working as a stripper at The Spotted Pony strip club, is seen talking to a mysterious comatose woman at a hospital. Next to the mysterious woman's bed is a picture of Stacy and Kim together, and it is implied that Stacy is still alive. On September 20, 2011, Kim is heard saying "That was a close one, Stacy!". On October 10, 2011 it is revealed that Stacy has Gigi's face due to plastic surgery. Kim confesses to Cutter that she tried to stop Stacy's scheme against Gigi when she followed Stacy to Llanview, and found her in the basement of a rental house that was leaking carbon monoxide, along with Gigi's dead body.

On October 14, 2011, Stacy wakes up from her coma, and Cutter decides to use her as leverage to blackmail Rex for the Buchanan fortune. Stacy leaves the hospital and goes to Llanview. She goes to Gigi's gravesite, confused about who she is and why she looks like her dead sister. Cutter explains everything to Stacy. On October 28, he convinces her to crash Natalie and Brody's costume themed engagement party so that when she sees Rex and Shane at the party, it can help her to get her memories back. Stacy tells Cutter that she wants out of their deal so that she can get plastic surgery to look like her old self again. On November 14 she decides to go to Brazil to get her old face back, and Cutter goes with her. Stacy and Cutter run into Alex Olanov at the doctor's, the mother of Cutter and Kim. Alex helps Stacy and Cutter get rid of Rex and Aubrey. Later Cutter finds out that Stacy is really Gigi, and Stacy is the one who died in the basement. On January 9, 2012 Stacy appears to Clint in Hell, convincing him he is going to Hell before he will be able to get Viki out of Heaven and back to Earth. Stacy and Eddie Ford then go take Mitch Laurence to Hell, and Stacy tells him that Jessica is not really his daughter.

Occupation FBI Agent

Lee Ramsey is a fictional character from the ABC Daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Hunt Block[53] portrayed the role from October 16, 2007 until June 13, 2008.[54]

FBI Agent Lee Ramsey is assigned to track down Marcie McBain, who has taken her adoptive son Tommy on the run after custody is awarded to his biological father, Todd Manning. Ramsey and Llanview Police Detective/former FBI Agent John McBain share some bad blood; Ramsey had carried an unrequited torch for John's late fiancée Caitlin Fitzgerald, and blames John for her murder years before at the hands of a serial killer whom both men were tracking. As Marcie is married to John's brother Michael McBain, John initiates his own pursuit of her; he and Ramsey continually run into one another on their separate searches across the country. After Marty Saybrooke and her son Cole Thornhart go missing, John returns to Llanview to find them. John discovers that Ramsey has been searching for the terrorist who had murdered Marty's husband, Patrick Thornhart, and entices Ramsey to break off his hunt for Marcie in order to finally capture Patrick's killer. John and Ramsey are forced to work together to track down Marty and Cole. John discovers a microchip in the back of one of Patrick's books of poetry, and later uses it to bargain with terrorist Simon Ryerson in Ireland in exchange for Marty and Cole's safety. The transaction is botched by Ramsey's reckless actions, and Marty is apparently killed in an explosion. Ramsey is promptly suspended by the Bureau for his conduct during the affair.

Now a free agent, Ramsey offers his services to Todd as a bounty hunter. They confront waitress Gigi Morasco, whom they soon discover is hiding Marcie from the authorities. Ramsey takes Gigi and her young son Shane hostage, over Todd's objections, and demands that Gigi call Marcie to meet with her. Marcie arrives but escapes; Ramsey attempts to gun her down while she is still holding Tommy. Todd angrily struggles with Ramsey, and Michael McBain is shot instead. He survives, and Marcie is later apprehended. Ramsey visits a jailed Gigi and threatens to harm her and Shane if she tells anyone about Ramsey and Todd holding her hostage. He is later arrested on suspicion of attempting to kill Gigi and Shane, but on February 15, 2008 is inexplicably named the new Commissioner of Llanview Police Department after the mayor fires Bo Buchanan. It soon becomes clear that Mayor Lowell is in league with Ramsey for some mysterious reason.

Loyal Llanview police officers Antonio Vega and Talia Sahid are determined to get Bo his job back, and work with John to oust Ramsey and expose him as a crooked cop. To this end, Antonio and Talia stage a break-up, and Antonio tricks Ramsey into believing that he has switched allegiances and is open to Ramsey's corrupting influence. With Antonio as an accomplice, Ramsey orchestrates the theft of the crown jewels of Mendorra. During the heist, Ramsey attempts to have Talia framed for criminal collusion and tries to have her dismissed from the force. On June 11, 2008, it is revealed that Ramsey has been secretly caring for an injured and confused Marty in the penthouse he had purchased from Todd, and that he had the jewels stolen in order to sell them on the black market and pay for Marty's private medical care. It becomes clear that Ramsey has compassion for Marty, and harbors regret for his part in her near-fatal accident. He tells Marty that he hopes to heal her physical and mental traumas and release her to her family and friends, and then be reinstated by the FBI himself. Ramsey's buyer for the jewels turns out to be Todd's long-lost sister Tina Lord — now the Crown Princess of Mendorra. Tina arrives at Ramsey's penthouse with a briefcase full of Euros, and the two make an exchange. But when Tina briefly moves in another room, thugs sent by United States Ambassador to Mendorra Jonas Chamberlain burst into the penthouse and shoot Ramsey to death. Ramsey's last act is to crawl towards the stairs, in an attempt to protect Marty.

After Ramsey's death, Carlo Hesser reveals that Ramsey had appointed to the commissioner’s office, by him, via the mayor. In addition, Ramsey had been in Hesser's employ as part of the scheme with the Mendorran Crown Jewels, and had secured Carlo's secret release from Statesville Prison.
