| The
tunnel connecting the Capwell and Lockridge mansions

Built
by Emmet Capwell and Horatio Lockridge, the tunnel allows to reach from C.C.'s
office the Lockridge cellar. Some other access however exist since the gazebo or
the guesthouse of
the Capwell property. Its existence was known only by a few persons :
C.C., Sophia, Minx, Channing Junior and Lindsay Smith. It
is indeed in its many galleries and secret rooms that Channing Junior and his
lover Lindsay Smith used to find each other far from the glances. It is still
there that Gina and her drug dealer Hank Judson practised their exchanges.
At
the beginning of 1985, an explosion by nitroglycerin caused by Augusta triggers
a fall. Several characters present inside the tunnels (Cruz, Santana, Gina, Ted)
get from there unscathed, but Augusta loses sight and Hank Judson life.
It is in this same tunnel partially destroyed that in 1987
Eden and Cain leave the Capwell mansion
under Keith's nose, after Cruz's escape during the wedding of Kelly and Jeffrey.
In 1990, Gina and Phyllis try to double Lionel, while exchanging with fake paintings the valuable pieces of
art stolen to the Capwells and stocked there by the chief of the Lockridge clan.
