I'd like for there to be at least 6 deaths resulting from this. 8 would perhaps be the most ideal. Perhaps David Schuster would be a worthy candidate? I definitely want to keep Kim and Doris around, and having David die would offer up some interesting potential drama for them, especially since by now, Kim will be 14 years old (I decided that she, like Joey Cross, would be 10 years old at the start of the series). </p><p></p><p>Of course, there are also several characters who are injured during this: most famously, Lisa Yoowing has lost her right arm; Allison's legs are broken and she must be in a wheelchair; Rodney has a broken arm and a broken leg, and must be in a wheelchair too; Norman loses an eye and must wear an eyepatch. The rest all have bruises and cuts.</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep02</strong> - Lee Webber tells his wife, Sandy, that he blames Allison for Chris's death. "If he hadn't gone off with her, he never would have been crushed by that damn wheel!"</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep03</strong> - The Yoowings take Leslie Harrington to court over their daughter, Lisa, losing an arm. He pays them a handsome sum. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep04</strong> - Lisa gets a hook-hand/arm. Leslie confides in Rodney that he thinks Martin Peyton had the Ferris wheel sabotaged, just to make trouble. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep05</strong> - Allison, in order to perk up all her friends, decides to throw a party at Dr. Rossi's beach-house. Lee and Sandy Webber gatecrash, but are welcomed nonetheless. Lee brings out some LSD and gets everyone to try some (well, everyone except Sandy and Norman, who only pretend to take it). While mostly everyone is off hallucinating, Lee wheels Allison out towards the bluffs, intending to push her off. But Norman and Sandy go after him, and a fight breaks out. More by luck than by skill, Norman manages to push Lee right off the bluffs... only he doesn't die, but winds up in a coma. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep06</strong> - Betty goes to Dr. Rossi, complaining that she and Steven have been trying to have a child for a few months now, with no results. Dr. Rossi examines her, and brings back some slightly disheartening news: though he tells her its not impossible, from the look of things, Betty may have trouble conceiving. All she and her husband can do right now is "keep trying." Naturally, Betty doesn't say a word of this to Steven. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep07</strong> - Joey Cross begins high school. Meanwhile, Sandy Webber becomes Leslie Harrington's new secretary, thanks to some cajoling from Rodney. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep08</strong> - Ted Carter, who hasn't been seen since the end of Season 3, makes a return. He shows up at Selena's house to announce his engagement to Boston blue-blood Jennifer Burbank. Selena is not impressed, and orders her ex-fiance from her house. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep09</strong> - Norman, tired of always sitting around and feeling sorry for himself, gets a job as a combination bookkeeper and circulation manager for the Peyton Place Newspaper. Lee Webber awakens from his coma... only to find Leslie Harrington in his room with an offer...</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep10</strong> - Reverend Jerry Bedford weds Miss Susan Winter. Betty does not approve, proclaiming that Jerry can do better. Pretty much everybody points out to her, "He could do better than you, yet he still wanted you! And you were too stupid to take him when you had the chance! So who are you to talk?"</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep11</strong> - Leslie sends the crippled Lee Webber up to kill Martin Peyton, believing him to be responsible for the Ferris wheel incident. The deal was for, once Lee had done away with Martin, Leslie would get Lee out of town and somewhere far away where he could live in relative luxury for the rest of his life. Unfortunately for Lee, that would never happen: he is stopped in his mission by Steven Cord. During the struggle, the gun goes off and Lee dies. Martin tells Steven he has avenged his sister's death, even though Steven doesn't really think so. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep12</strong> - ???</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep13</strong> - ???</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep14</strong> - Ted Carter brings his new wife, Jennifer, to town. His mother, Roberta, wants them to take the room next to hers and Harmons', though Jennifer refuses, saying she'd much prefer to sleep in Ted's old room way down the hall. Roberta takes offense, and immediately jumps to the conclusion that Jennifer is talking about her behind her back. So Roberta does the only sensible thing: every night, she tiptoes down the hall into the little storage room next to Ted's and eavesdrops on them through the air-vent. Roberta discovers that Jennifer hardly ever talks about her mother-in-law, but that doesn't satisfy Roberta at all. She continues to listen to them every night, taking in every conversation they ever have... and yet not once does she ever hear them make love. But Roberta doesn't mind that; she approves that her daughter-in-law is, apparently, frigid. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep15</strong> - [Christmas] Stephanie Wallace and David Noyes come to Peyton Place on Allison's invitation. They meets and become friendly with Allison's friends and family, much to her relief. Stephanie and Matthew Swain, however, end up having a one-night stand that they choose to be discreet about. Later on... Leslie Harrington is found dead, poisoned. </p><p></p><p><strong>[winter break]</strong></p><p></p><p><strong>Ep16</strong> - Julie Anderson returns to Peyton Place for Leslie's funeral. She confronts Martin Peyton, believing he had something to do with it. He gives nothing away, aside from a smug smile.</p><p></p><p><strong>Ep17</strong> - Roberta Carter finally hears her son having sex with his wife... and is horrified to learn that Jennifer is a sadomasochist, teasing Ted until he goes into a frenzy, demanding that he whip her with his belt, etc. Even when Ted has fallen asleep, crying with shame at what he's done to his wife, Jennifer continues to slide up and down the sheets to make the welts on her body sting, all because she enjoys it. Roberta is pale and shaking from listening to all of that... and goes to listen again the very next night. </p><p></p><p><strong>Ep18</strong> - Rodney quits mourning in order to start work as the new head of the Harrington Mills. He re-hires Julie Anderson as his secretary, though he keeps on Sandy Webber.
