RICARDO'S STORY:
Love, that's funny, did Ricardo really know the meaning of that word? No,
not until he met Paula...she's was everything he could ever want, and she
loved him right back. Although Paula's mom didn't approve of their
relationship, they loved each other and nothing was going to get in their
way...or so they thought...
SECRETS:
Clips were shown of Ricardo proposing to Paula, that must have been the
happiest day of their lives, until Ricardo decided he'd rather elope. Paula
agrees, she gets ready while Ricardo went to the DEEP and has a few drinks
with Gabi, unbeknownst to him, she would ruin it all...Ricardo, the gentleman
that he is, he walks Gabi to her motel room, Gabi comes on to Ricardo, but
he rejects her advances...it was all innocent...While Ricardo was busy, Paula
was being kidnapped...after he finally finds Paula, he's so guilt
ridden...can he and should he tell her the truth? No, not now, she's too
fragile...he'll tell her in good time...after all it was innocent...
LIES:
As Paula and Ricardo get close, someone shows up on their doorstep...who
could it be? Gabi of course, and boy does she have some news...she's Paula's
sister! Paula invites her to stay while Ricardo is left speechless, not
believing a word Gabi says, but for Paula's sake...he'll play along...Then
Ricardo finds out Elaine killed Del Douglas, trying to find a way to tell
Paula is hard, SURPRISE, Paula knows what her mom did...this drives a wedge
even further between Paula and Ricardo, much to Gabi's content. Elaine is
sentenced to 3 years probation...GREAT NEWS! Or so Ricardo thinks...Gabi
then told Paula that Ricardo was with another woman when she was abducted...
THE TRUTH:
Paula and Ricardo decide Gabi should move out, they need to get close...

Ricardo were shown at the DEEP where Ricardo swears to prove that Ben is
guilty...Ricardo, not being able to talk to even Paula about Maria, turns to
Annie, Maria's best friend, how is that Maria has been dead 4 years? Annie
consoles Ricardo, but gives him advice as well, Gabi is dangerous, he needs
to stay away from her...

Paula is moving out, but Gabi is sure that she will have him...will he turn to Gabi, will Paula forgive him? Or will there be someone new in his life?... Stay tuned...Mr. Casanova is getting HOT on Sunset Beach!
Day 4 of recaps week continued with the clips of a lifeguard and his life changes...were they for the better, or for the worst? MICHAEL'S STORY:
It all began at the beach, the surf, the sand, and Casey, Michael's best friend...Life was good, could it get any better? Of course...that's when Vanessa enters the picture...
THE HERO:
Michael a hero? But of course, after all, do you remember when he saved
Vanessa's life? She was walking across the street, and a car was about to
hit her, our HERO Michael saved her...Then there was the time when Michael
went to Vanessa's apartment and someone was in her apartment, although
Vanessa actually Karate-Kicked him out of the apartment, Michael distracted
the guy, then he was there to console Vanessa. Michael, the good guy that he
was, let Vanessa stay with himfor a while until she was safe. But it seemed
like Vanessa was always in trouble...remember when she was at the pier and
that guy wanted information from her but she refused? Those were CLASSIC
scenes...see, Michael is our hero...But things do change when secrets are
revealed...
THE TRUTH REVEALED:
Everything was fine, until Vanessa started looking in to Michael's past,
what skeleton's were in Michael's closet? "Scoop" Vanessa had to find
out...Vanessa followed Michael as he went to a girl's house, boy was Vanessa
mad! More like jealous, but what's the difference? Anyway, an upset Vanessa
refuses to talk to Michael until he explains what's going on,a relunctant
Michael agrees, hoping he won't lose her now. Michael confesses that he has
been helping out Virginia and Jimmy for a while. He also confesses that he's
NO HERO...he's a murderer? Was that a shock or what? Our Michael a killer?
That surely was a scene to remember...
THE REPRUCUSSIONS:
The next clips were shown of when Jimmy found out by accident that Michael
killed his father...things took a turn for the worse...that boy's hatred for
Michael was unbelievable! Jimmy kept accusing Michael of trying to get with
Virginia, as well as throwing the fact that Michael was a killer in his face
at all times.
Now Vanessa and Michael were so close to being as happy as can be. Virginia
had moved into Michael's after getting robbed, but Vanessa was okay with
that, for the most part anyway...And it didn't bother her that Michael had
commited a crime, he had surely done all good deeds to make up for it. But
then Vanessa was sent to Hong Kong just when things were getting good. Now
Jimmy was really convinced that Michael wanted his mom and he was determined
to make Michael's life impossible. Then just as Virginia was going to move
out...WHAM! She falls and breaks her leg, now she's stuck at Michael's for a
bit longer. When Vanessa returned, she wasn't too happy about that, but
there was nothing she could do.
WHAT'S NEXT:
Now, Michael is made aware that Alex (Casey's mom) has cancer, she doesn't have much time to live. He loves her so much! Casey went off with Alex to treat her cancer while Michael stays in Sunset Beach...Michael's left to deal with Vanessa: his wonderful girlfriend who's a bit too noisy and a bit too suspicious for her own good...But is there any truth to what she's saying? Then there's Virginia: Extremely needy at the moment, but she has a plan of her own, to break-up Michale and Vanessa and have him all to her self.
What's a life-guard to do? If he makes the wrong choice, he could lose someone he cares for...seems as though his life-guard training could really come in handy right now....
The conclusion of Sunset Beach's recaps ended today with the story of ANNIE, the misunderstood vixen that's after Ben's heart...will she succeed? ANNIE'S STORY:
It all began years ago, Annie was in love with Ben, but he fell in love with Maria, Annie's best friend, what's a heartbroken girl to do?
Spend her "daddy's" money of course! Del found out that Annie quit Law School and was spending way too much money, and partying too much as well, what does Del do? Cut Annie off. Annie was so ticked off at her father that she wished him dead, when her wish came true and Del was murdered, all fingers pointed towards her, even more now since Del left EVERYTHING to Olivia Richard's Del's mistress.
MISUNDERSTOOD:
Clips of Annie's arrest aired, including her first meeting with Meg, when she
went to see Ben who was visiting Annie. Annie didn't fell a threat then, but
little did she know, Meg would be her gretest competition...Annie, in order
to get out of jail, she faked her suicide, after all, she was innocent, she
just needed to prove it, anyway she ended up in a casket with her "Uncle Al",
she almost burned up in the creamatorium, but luckily a worker let her
out...but everyone still though she was dead...
TRUE FEELINGS REVEALED:
Annie, who watched her funeral from Ben's office in the DEEP was heart-broken
when she heard Ben's speech, she just knew that he loved her, she had to tell
him the truth... But was it too late? Meg Cummings was always around when
Annie wanted to reveal herself, she finally found Ben alone and surprised him
with the fact that she was alive. Ben was happy, well, angry at first, but
happy nonetheless. He decided to keep her hidden to help prove her
innocence, that would have been fine until "Little Miss Mary Sunshine" seen
alive and well. What was she doing waltzing into Ben's house anyway? She
was they were getting too close...Annie especially realized that when she
seen Meg and Ben kissing...talk about a kick in the gut!
PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS:
Annie couldn't lose Ben, she drugged his drink and then made Meg think she
and Ben were sleeping together. Finally Ricardo arrested the real murdeerer
of Del Douglas, but Annie hadn't known that, she climbed to the top of a
tower, where Ben saved her. Meg showed up making sure Ben was okay, couldn't
Meg get a clue and leave them alone for a minute? Guess not, this meant
war...Annie and tim teamed up, bringing Meg's mom Joan to Sunset Beach...do
you remember that? That look on Joan's face when Annie waltzes in planting a
HUGE kiss on Ben...that was PRICELESS! Anyway, even trying to put bad
thoughts of Ben into Joan's head didn't work, Ben sweet talked her into
liking him. Then Annie and Tim set up Maria's old studio to scare Meg away,
and Meg sure did fall for it...Annie was a genius, this had to do it, this
had to break them up for good, especially when because of Meg, Ben set
Maria's bed on fire...But that "farm girl" still didn't stay away, Annie
finally got the bright idea to "revise" Maria's journal that Meg had
"borrowed", Annie added her own entries that lead Meg to...
THE CAVES:
Annie didn't mean for anyone to get hurt...but Meg went to the caves, Annie
and Tim rolled a rock in front of the entrance just like what had happened to
Maria (courtesy of Annie's revisions)
Once Annie found out the caves were going to be exploded, Ben went to go save
Meg, but it may be too late...as far as Annie knows her precious Ben, the
love of her life is dead in the caves after the bombs were detinated. What
is she to do now?
What does the future hold for Annie? Will Ben survive the horrible accident? If so, will Meg stay away so Annie can have Ben to herself? But how can that happen, if he's in love with a ghost...
