A Hit:  Her Mother's daughter on ATWT


  ATWT's Lucinda is accustomed to getting what she wants,
and the thing she most recently desired was to see Craig
destroyed.  But she didn't count on Sierra coming to
Craig's defense.
  As Lucinda celebrated Craig's imminent incarceration,
Sierra snatched the champagne glass from Lucinda's hand.
The verbal exchange was like a heavyweight boxing match,
the words coming fast and furious.  Watching Mary Beth
Evans go toe-to-toe with Elizabeth Hubbard was simply
mesmerizing.
  Sierra grew stronger with each heated exchange.  Evans
clearly illustrated Sierra's desire to be recognized as an
independent woman who would no longer jump at her mother's
demands.
  It was stunning when Sierra pointed out that Lucinda and
Craig had something in common (the horror!)--both married
for money.  Evans' cold, calculated delivery pierced
Lucinda's heart.  She issued a warning: "If you don't take
that crack back, our relationship will never be quite the
same again."  Given Evans performance, Lucinda may have
lost a daughter, but Hubbard gained a worthy sparring
partner.
