Marco cornered Chet in the dorm room. "Hey man, you gotta hear this one. This is good. Guess what--Stoker got married!" At Chet's look of disbelief, Marco continued. "Ya, man. He got married to the dopey nurse-Sharon Walter's and she had his baby and guess what else? He only married her so that she could use his health insurance for the baby."
"No way man, that is just too wild. Hey does anyone else know about this?" Chet's eyes were alight as the Phantom's mind began to work. "Hey Marco, I have a great idea that we can play on Mike. It'll really get him worried!" Chet chuckled to himself.
"Well come help me clean the engine, then we can plan this out good."

"So you see Cap, that is what happened, and know I just don't know what to do. I mean I do love her, and want the best for the baby. I want little Mikey to be happy and healthy-but if the insurance doesn't kick in for a while, then he might not get the chance he needs. I just think I need some time off to think about all this." Stoker shrugged and sat down with a thump.
"Well pal, seems like you have a big problem on your hands." An idea suddenly struck Hank Stanley. He knew Joyce had been having an affair with Stoker, Hank didn't care, and it kept her out of his hair. He had to get back at her for blaming everything about Alicia on him.
"Mike I have an idea, why don't I front the money for the operation and then when you get the insurance money back, you can just pay me back then."
Mike Stoker was stunned, he didn't know what to say. "Uh, Cap, I can't do that. That just seems like too much of an imposition."
"Sure you can, I mean, you did sleep with my wife, I mean ex wife didn't you?" When Cap saw that Mike was about to pass out, he tried to relax him by saying "Listen pal, you did a favor for me, keeping her out of my hair like that. I just want to repay you the favor--but I just have one last request. Keep up with Joyce--don't let her know about Sharon and the baby and let me be the one to tell her."
Unsure of what Cap had in mind, Mike thought that it didn't sound like a bad thing. He hadn't been able to get hold of Joyce Stanley lately anyway, he had almost forgotten about her. "All right Cap--sounds like a deal. But what am I supposed to tell Sharon? She doesn't know about Joyce! "
"Don't' worry, I have something in mind...." Hank leaned back in his chair, now how was he going to deal with Dixie? She was still pregnant, and he was still trying to figure out how he was the father.

In the hospital cafeteria, there were a couple of innocent looking women that were plotting terrible things.
Harriet DeSoto was talking as if she was talking about the weather, but it was in fact much more sinister. "Well Joyce, you want Hank and Mike out of the way, I want that good for nothing Johnny and Joanne out of the way. What did you have in mind?"
"A bomb." Joyce stated matter of factly. "It is the simplest thing. We can make it look like an accident at the station. It is the easiest way to get rid of all of them."
"What about Joanne? How is she going to be there? We'll work on that, maybe she can go to pick Roy up from his shift, but I will beat her to it, saving my baby from the bomb in time." Harriet smiled wrily.
"A most excellent idea. A toast to the women scorned by the firemen they once loved." Joyce was surprised at how well this arrangement was working out. She would get even for Hank's ruining of their daughter and Mike's betrayal of her love--with that good for nothing Sharon Walters. Oh she knew about that little gem, a certain other lover from Station 51 told her about that not too long ago.

Dr. Bracket, looked at the chart and looked up, "Dr. Lambert, you pulled through, somehow you did it. I don't think that you are out of the woods yet, but you are making remarkable progress. Although I am a bit concerned over the blood tests, I am going to have them redone, I think someone made a mistake in the lab. These tests say that you are a woman who recently had a miscarriage."
