    1. Bobbie and Jake married, he slept with Lucy and she became pregnant. Jake and Bobbie were going to take the baby but Lucy miscarried. Jake went to South America. Bobbie planned to adopt a friend's children, who got her into a lot of trouble and barred from being able to adopt a child. Jake left town to help people in South America but sent Bobbie a letter, which Scott Baldwin destroyed to keep Bobbie for himself.

  2. Bummed that Ekulona lost her job, I thought she was a fine unknown addition to the class. Hoping that Belafonte will bring her A game.
