In an April 2001 chat, Matt
and Missy were asked about working with Megan and how she
was cast in the role.
Melissa: "That's so
funny [that fans think she's the best child actor ever
to appear on Days]. Megan was actually in virtual Eden
set. She was in those scenes, and I guess they saw her from
those scenes and decided they wanted her to be a little
younger. They changed the character completely. She really
is a great little actress." Matthew: "She has more credits than the two of us
combined." Melissa: "She keeps us on our toes." Matthew: "She knows her lines and our lines."

Jack and Jenn are driving Abby
to school. Jenn gets irritated by his joking around, which
he picks up on quickly and hushes. Jack tells Abby that she
doesn't have to worry about her school now that she is a
resident of Salem. Abby asks them where SHE'S going to live
if they both stay in Salem and why Jenn doesn't like Jack's
jokes. {4/12/01}
Abby tells her parents she
loves them as they drop her off at school. Jenn kisses her
on the hand and they both tell her goodbye.

Abby was supposed to be in
bed. It was late and Jennifer was out, talking with Hope.
Jack was downstairs trying to con Greta into making a
business deal with him. Abby came into the room and said, "I
heard voices down here."
Jack picked Abby up and said,
"Well, look who it is, young Abigail." Abby said "Daddy!"
Then Jack introduced Abby to "Princess Greta." Greta was
embarrassed because Jack told Abby to call her Princess.
Greta told Abby she could just
call her "Greta." Jack said, "Oh, no we are very formal in
this house. This is Lady Abigail and I am (with Abby
finishing the line) King Jack."
Jack and Abby then looked at
each other and laughed. Then Abby said "Food fight." Then
they started to talk about cupcakes.
After cupcakes, Jack sent Abby
back to bed, before Jennifer got home and they would both be
in trouble. This was the night of the accident on the
bridge. Jenn wasn't coming home for awhile.
