GUASTI COSE CLASSIC Original Airdate: June 23, 2004 Episode #117, "The Sanctity of Murder" 
Vanessa Phillips sat in a chair next to her husband, Ryan Phillips, who was holding her hand. Standing next to them were Nikki and Marcus Vicman, Vanessa's sister and brother-in-law, respectively. All three were attempting to calm down Vanessa after a car bomb had exploded outside only a few hours ago.
A few of the guests had been able to leave, but the majority of them were still stuck in the church answering police questions. The entire church was swarming with cops, people were being interviewed everywhere in the church, and most of the street outside was blocked off as the forensics team was taking care of Derek Moore's car. "I'm fine, really," Vanessa insisted. "I don't need everyone watching over me like this." "We're concerned, that's all," Ryan said. "No one wants our baby to get hurt if you overexert yourself." "I won't," Vanessa said. "I will be fine. I'm just…I don't know if we should be going on our honeymoon now." "What?" Ryan demanded. "Vince is one of my students," Vanessa explained. "His uncle just died. I'd feel horrible going to California." "Look, this is all very horrible, but we've already paid for our plane tickets," Ryan said. "And you won't be able to fly soon enough, what with being pregnant and all." "Ryan, this isn't about the money," Vanessa snapped. "For once, I agree with Ryan," Nikki said. "Why torture yourself over this, Vanessa? You've been through too much today. You deserve to enjoy your honeymoon." "Nikki's right," Marcus agreed. "Of course I'm right," Nikki said. "Now, let's find that Detective Kincaid and see about getting you two the hell out of here."
Yet things shall always remain... Guasti Cose. |
So here we are, ready for our first Guasti Cose classic. This episode is #117, "The Sanctity of Murder." It occurs right
after what was originally the season three premiere of GC, back when the series had seasons. In the premiere, Ryan Phillips and
Vanessa Watson got married. Alexis Lopez was one of Vanessa's bridesmaids, which Vanessa maneuvered in the hopes that Alexis would
get her memory back and tell Vanessa what happened between her and Ryan. This was written in June 2004, which means I was 17 when I wrote it...
so excuse the "writing."
The church was originally called "Emerald Church," like nearly everything else in town. I got the name of the town from my high school, "Marquette High School" and a soap on The Mickey Mouse Club called Emerald Cove. After naming the town Marquette Cove, I became obsessed with having "Emerald" everything else. Hence Emerald Square, Emerald Cafe, Emerald Lake... |
