 Katie
Timmons, although dead during the year 1981, does not stop haunting the
spirit of her brother Keith and of Victoria Lane, her rival. Since her
death, the one as the other keeps in the depths of his being a sense of
guilt for Victoria, and of hatred for Keith. A powerful, overruning
hatred towards Cruz Castillo and towards Victoria : a hatred which will
eat his heart out from the inside for long years.
Because
Katie is adored by her brother. But Katie is in love, deeply in love,
with a young man : Cruz Castillo. Katie loves in secret Cruz, she is
even crazy about him, and she does not bear Victoria Lane's presence by
his side. After he had slept with her only once, Katie started to harass
Victoria repeatedly to try to separate her from
Cruz.
It
is because of this jealousy that Katie accepts Victoria's invitation to
go to the beach, without knowing what this latter prepared for her. When
she arrives on the spot, Katie finds Tori and Cruz tenderly embraced,
living their love fully. Mad with jealousy, Katie goes away from the
couple and dives into the ocean. Cruz and Tori attends the scene,
without moving at first, because Katie, swimming champion, is an
excellent swimmer. Cruz, an arm in plaster, eventually calls for help
when he does not see her coming back. Katie dies that day, drowned. And
from then on, the life of Keith and Victoria will never be the same.
The
memory of Katie will come many times to haunt Keith and Victoria. Her
shadow will come to float in 1986 (it will almost be at the origin of a
break-up between Eden and Cruz), then in 1987 during Cruz's trial for
Elena Nikolas's murder.
