J.T. Cornell (ex-editor of this very tabloid) has secretly snuck back into Harmony. We managed to catch up with our old boss to get the scoop on his return.
So what are you doing back in Harmony?
I’m here for a little bit of business, a little bit of pleasure. I’m running low on money, so I’m hoping to make a quick buck.
And how do you intend to do that?
Being in the tabloid trade yourself, I’m sure you know secrets are a lucrative commodity – and I just happen to know a few juicy secrets that people will pay handsomely to keep quiet.
And whom might those secrets involve?
Oh, a certain billionaire widow. I tipped her off to some shocking information a few months ago, and from what I can tell, she hasn’t shared the news with some key people. I find that quite interesting. And my dear pals Rebecca and Gwen have a lot to lose if Ethan finds out they leaked his paternity to me all those years ago.
What?
(Quickly) Nothing.
Okay. So what about the pleasure aspect? I take it you’re not here to watch the leaves change?
No, of course not. I’m hoping to hook up with a former flame... and believe me, she’s a hot one. My Becky is the most amazing lover. One time she –
No details. Please.
Your loss.
You’re risking a lot by coming back to the States. Isn’t the IRS after you?
It is a bit dangerous for me, but the payoff will be worth it.
I heard you were hiding out in Rome for quite some time.
Yes, I had quite an adventure this past summer. Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald Crane wanted me to prove to Ethan that she wasn’t responsible for exposing his paternity. So she chased me all over the city. Normally, I’m a sucker for attention from such a beautiful woman, but I had a lot of pressure on me to keep quiet. I finally got Theresa to leave me alone by revealing that the father of her son, Little Ethan, is Ethan Winthrop, not Julian Crane. I dug up that little nugget of truth years ago. I knew it would come in handy someday. I also revealed to Chad Harris that he and Whitney Russell were not brother and sister as they were led to believe. Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough to distract Chad from taking away the magical chalice I had in my possession.
