One Life to Live Weekly Preview: 10/8-10/12

From Lynda Hirsch-
ONE LIFE TO LIVE: Todd, fearing he might lose his son to Michael and Marcie, suggests they all consider a shared custody agreement — but Marcie won’t even entertain the idea. Marcie remains angry at Michael for lying to her about how long he had known the truth about Tommy. Michael and Marcie’s world is shattered when the judge awards Todd custody of Tommy. Todd arrives to take Tommy, only to discover that Marcie has fled with the baby. Marcie arrives at her brother Ron’s house. Ron tries to persuade Marcie to return Tommy, but she only rails she can never go back to Michael, that she can never forgive Michael. Langston is blown away when Markko tells her that he loves her. Dorian informs Langston she knows her parents are dead. Dorian wants to take in Langston. Clint and Nora grow closer. Jared continues to antagonize Natalie. Sarah is thrilled by the coup she pulled off in getting the big name act to perform at Capricorn.
SNEAK PEEK: Marcie starts a new life.
How on earth can that wacky judge give custody to Todd, granted he is Tommy’s father- his past should have been the nail in the coffin for him. In the real world, judges would never give custody to such a dangerous person,irregardless of if he is a great father. But I do not applaud Marcie’s efforts to keep Tommy, kidnapping is so overdone in this genre but I think OLTL can tell a compelling story. The fact that she will never forgive Michael adds a another interesting part to the storyline, she won’t even trust her soulmate. They have better not drag this storyline out until next summer because that is the length of normal kidnapping storylines in soaps and I tend to lose interest, fast!
The truth about Langston finally comes to the surface-her parents are dead and she’s been living on her own for awhile. She is very brave for doing this all alone, forging signatures and whatnot, basically taking care of herself- what a dependable girl. Trust me she’s better off on her own, without the influence of Dorian, she is just a disaster on two legs that is incapable of being a good mother. Dorian watch your back, it seems Nora and Clint are getting much closer- maybe she should have minded her own business and seen the closeness of those two. I can see them having an affair- he wouldn’t leave Dorian for Nora.
