Sunset Beach

Episode 175 (2x175)

: 10, 1998

When the repaired painting of Maria is returned, Ben explains his plan to give the painting to Carmen. Meg tells Joan that she's never seen a picture of Maria except for the portrait, because she's never wanted Maria to be that real. Maria has difficulty on a drawing of Meg, which makes her wonder why it was so easy to draw the picture of Ben when she'd only seen a picture of him once, and it's so difficult to draw a picture of Meg, whom she knows so well. Ben arrives to visit Maria. Annie tells Gregory that she knows that he has a 500 share advantage over Ben and AJ together. Gregory doesn't remember Tim's shares of the Liberty Corporation at first, until Annie reminds him, and she also reminds him that whoever controls those shares could control the Liberty Corporation in the event that Ben and AJ side together against Gregory. Then she tells him that *she* controls Tim's shares. Annie bets Gregory that she can resist his charms longer than he can resist hers. The stakes are Tim's shares against Annie's. In order to give her a head start on the bet, Annie decides to slip Gregory some Viagra.
