1991 (#17) - Gina's complicity in Clint's absconding and Rex's warnings

Despite the fact that it's been a long time since Clint's arrest following his diabolical plan to eliminate Katherine, replace her with a doppelganger and empty her entire estate, Gina still can't put this matter aside. Incredulous and shocked at all that her husband has been able to do, an inconsolable Gina is relieved by Rex, Katherine and her brother Danny, who urge her to move on and forget her marriage. The woman, however, despite everything, does not feel like asking for a divorce from her husband, convinced that there must be an explanation for what happened. And Rex's revelations about Clint's past and the fact that he married her only to get closer to him and to Katherine are worth nothing, since Gina categorically rejects the idea that her marriage with Clint is based on lies, since they really love each other. And so, when Clint surprisingly shows up at the woman's door, she doesn't think twice about welcoming him into her home. Clint admits to Gina that he has made a mistake and that he has escaped from prison by disguising himself as a cleaner; and the woman, though furious with the man, in the end is unable to remain inflexible with the man she loves and accepts his requests and pleas to hide him in the house. For a few weeks, therefore, Clint lives hidden in his house, protected in his absconding by Gina, aware of being an accomplice to a crime but at the same time happy to have her husband back. When the cops knock on Gina's door to find out if Clint had come to see her, she lies and pretends not to want anything to do with a criminal like her ex-husband. The staging, however, if it succeeds in deceiving the police does not hold up in front of Rex, who reads in the eyes of his daughter a deep inner conflict. In the end, Gina instinctively discharges her tension by admitting that she is hiding Clint at home, asking her father what else she could do since she can do nothing but love her husband. However, Rex is incredulous and angry, unable to understand how his daughter can accept to be used in that way; especially after all the pain Clint has caused her.
