‘Revenge’: Emily Reveals ‘I’m Amanda Clarke’ — Season 4 Episode 18 Recap – Hollywood Life

‘Revenge’ Recap: Emily Admits To The World — ‘I’m Amanda Clarke’

OMG! Emily totally exposed herself to the world on the March 29 episode of 'Revenge.' And no, we don't mean she took her clothes off -- get your minds out of the gutter! Ems finally revealed her true identity during a press conference on LIVE TV! If we're being real -- and we always are -- we have to admit that we totally didn't believe Emily (Emily VanCamp) would actually reveal her true identity during the March 29 episode of Revenge, as previous teaser clips had suggested. But alas, we were wrong. And as HollywoodLife.com's own Managing Editor, Dina Satore-Bodo, said, the epic moment was a "game changer."

‘Revenge’: Emily Reveals ‘I’m Amanda Clarke’ — Season 4 Episode 18 Recap

I think we all have Stevie Grayson (Gail O’Grady) to thank for Emily’s bold admission. After Ems tried to convince Jack (Nick Wechsler) to retract his story about the night Daniel died, Stevie stepped in and told her that she’ll no longer let her son be the collateral damage in the path of Emily’s reckless behavior. Stevie must have knocked some sense into Emily because at the ceremony for the new wing of the hospital — which was supposed to be named after Daniel Grayson — Emily walked up to the podium and not only admitted that Daniel died saving her life, but that she’s done keeping secrets. And that’s when she said, “I’m David Clarke’s daughter.” Gasps never sounded louder.

Nolan Cheats On Louise?

Elsewhere in the Hamptons this week, Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) paid a visit to Louise (Elena Satine). She said she just wanted to pay her condolences after Lyman’s tragic death, but what Victoria really did was throw a wrench in Louise’s relationship with Nolan (Gabriel Mann). Victoria told Louise not to trust everything Nolan says. Of course, Victoria was only referring to the truth behind Daniel’s death, but the secret Louise really uncovered was that Nolan would rather spend his time with smokin’ hot Tony than the red-headed vixen he’s married to. She even overheard Nolan say that he doesn’t want kids with someone he “pities.” Ouch!

Other small tidbits that happened:

1. Emily and Jack bonded during the ceremony at the hospital, and Ben’s (Brian Hallisay) brother warned him to keep an eye on them. (The chemistry between them is so obvious — Ems needs to stop denying it!)

2. David Clarke cut his hand with a box cutter while fixing something on his boat. While this seemed unimportant, as far as this episode is concerned, we have a feeling that his leftover blood will pop back up at some point before the season’s over. (Things don’t just happen for no good reason on TV shows!)

3. Stevie Grayson was bad-ass this week. But isn’t she always?!

4. Margaux (Karine Vanasse) sought out and stopped a hitwoman (Courtney Love), who her private investigator ordered to kill Emily.
