Badderly Island Pt 2 OLTL 1990

Badderly
Bo and Sarah needed a honeymoon: and a relaxing one at that, after the trauma of the last several months. They chose Badderly as the natural place to go and Bo, as executive producer of Fraternity Row, decided to take the cast along on a location shoot. Along for the ride were Cord, Megan and her rival Spring Skye (again played by Sharon Schlarth). Arriving at the tropical paradise of Badderly, they were in for a big surprise: the island was teeming with mobsters, headed by none other than Carlo Hesser. Without an easy way of escape, the group of Llanviewans quickly formulated a plan: they would pretend to be a gaggle of confused tourists who were oblivious to the name Carlo Hesser. (Carlo was not well integrated into the show yet, so he wouldn't recognize people like Bo and Sarah). Cord, meanwhile, was shocked to find Tina on the island as well, and angry to find her there with Johnny Dee.

Back in Llanview, Jake was lonely without Megan. But when he discovered the truth about Badderly and that Carlo Hesser was on the island, he and Lucky took off in a sailboat to reach them. Unfortunately, the boat sank before they reached shore and Jake and Lucky had to swim the rest of the way back. Megan and Jake met on the beach, falling into each other's arms.

Cord and Tina bickered and battled, but before long they found themselves together in bed again. Tina felt intense guilt that she'd slept with Johnny and decided instantly to break it off with him. However Johnny wouldn't take `no' for an answer. Meanwhile, things were getting ugly between the mosters as they continued conducting business. It was revealed that one of the mobsters was actually Marco Dane (Gerald Anthony) in disguise, up to one of his famous plots. When he saw Megan, Marco instantly vowed to protect her should anything go wrong.

The rest of the Llanview party decided that something had to be done to get off the island quickly. Enlisting the help of beautiful native, Gloria Mundy (Anna Garduno), they attmpted to build a raft and later to signal for help. One day, wandering throu gh the underbrush, Sarah found herself sinking rapidly into quicksand! Megan and Bo managed to pull her out. Later, Megan nearly drowned in the undertow surrounding Badderly, but Marco saved her. Megan and Jake also encountered a formidable foe to thei r budding romance: Carlo's daughter Charlotte (Audrey Landers), who took an immediate fancy to Jake and did her best to win him over. With time running out and the mobsters suddenly wondering if their American guests were really who they claimed to be

Does anybody know why Jensen Buchanan left the role of Sarah later that year?

[abcsoaptv]

I always thought it was because she rekindled the flame with her high school sweetheart and she left the show to marry him. IDK maybe there is more to it tho!

[yaywhewclips242]

did NOT like the Badderly Island storyline. supposedly this was during the TV writers' strike. That's Y it sucked.

[noellemt100]

I sure do miss these characters! Lucky was hilarious!

[soapfan90]

Thanks for Posting! Actually, Lucky was already on the island with the others. After he found out the mafia was there, he sent his messenger bird, Tweety, a message to Jake that Megan was in danger. Jake then took the fishing boat and swam to the island. What a great storyline! He was the greatest, macho hero on daytime!

Poor Meagan I recall being mad at Jake during that time.

[softsable79]

I always thought she left and didn't return to OLTL because of Another World. I also thought it was stupid to recast her only to kill her off.

[soapfave06]

Well I know that Jensen was on Another World already when they brought Sarah back in 1991 so that's why they recast her I just thought it was stupid she "died".

[softsable79]

I don't know why she left and then was replaced with Grace Phillips. The recast was okay but i preferred jensen buchanan.
