ANOTHER WORLD: Frankie Dies (Stalker Storyline) Pt. 19

The firing of AW alumni Alice Barrett was a sad and devastating blow to the fans of "Another World" for it set in motion the decision to kill off the character that she had portrayed for seven years: the beloved Frankie Frame.

Though brilliantly performed, the storyline is infamous for the controversy it sparked among the show's fans and the soap's executives as well as for the grisly violent way in which the character was murdered. The show never recovered from the loss of Frankie who, in many ways, represented the heart of the show.

In Part 19, Felicia tells John at the Cory chapel that Cass is having Frankie's ashes spread on Hammond Hill, her favorite spot.***

Michael, Donna and Vicky then arrive with the family Bible. They compare the family tree when Nick arrives with Maggie. Nick signs his name as Nick Hudson right when Sophia arrives. Maggie, looking to rub her marriage in Sophia's face, suggests that her name be added to it as Nick's wife.

Nick refuses to add Maggie's name. Felicia goes over what lines people will be reading for the memorial. Rachel and Matt arrive, and Matt laments how unfortunate Frankie didn't reach the Cory chapel or the main house when she was murdered. Joe arrives with Tomas and he explains that Sharlene still doesn't know about Frankie.

Cass arrives with Charlie and is pleased with the picture that Felicia chose of Frankie (ironically the ONLY picture that doesn't show Frankie in the same outfit that she was murdered in). Rachel informs him that Amanda and Allie send their love and asks about Frankie's family. Cass explains that Evan is in Oklahoma with Frankie's mother, Emma, who was too ill to make the trip to Bay City. They are having their own memorial service for Frankie. Morgan arrives and he and Cass embrace.

Gabe learns that Fax's car was found abandoned in the woods. They hope there's something in the car that links him to the murders. Josie laments that he killed Frankie all for a necklace. Gabe surmises that she must have found something else out about him that prompted him to kill her.

Gary meets Fred Banning in Chicago and learns that he is still hostile about the doctor who is responsible for his wife's death. Gary asks him if the doctor who treated her was named Fax Newman.

***Again, John shows no personal pain for the loss of Frankie. He's more sensitive and wistful over the family Bible than he is over the death of a woman who he once thought he was in love with.
