Story Notes:   As a viewer of OLtL and a one time Evangeline and John fan it was hard to understand TPTB transitioning from J&E to J&N.  They had given us a whirlwind year and a half showing John’s unspoken ILY to one woman and his we’ll never be more than friends to the other.

But with all things in TV land TPTB have control and I do not.   So as a viewer it’s either I deal with the change, watch something else or do the next best thing, write what I wanted to see.  I said all that to explain this missing scene.  The words/conversations in italics that are not character thoughts have been taken from the OLtL episodes8-23-05 and 8-25-05; those words belong those writers.  Everything else belongs to me.
