Rebecca Lewis is a fictional character on the American
soap opera One Life to Live. The role was portrayed by
Reiko Aylesworth from 1993 to 1994, Rebecca Lewis, follower of the Tabernacle of Joy ministry, meets and falls for
Todd Manning while he is incarcerated for the rape of
Marty Saybrooke. Though Todd begins to have feelings for her as well, he escapes to seek revenge on his enemies. A fugitive Todd and a captive Marty are surrounded in 1994; Rebecca talks her way inside in exchange for Marty. Todd escapes with Rebecca as a willing hostage, and she tries to persuade him to turn himself in. Surrounded again, Todd lets Rebecca go and flees; he is shot and presumed dead. Rebecca returns to Llanview and begins a romance with
Powell Lord III. Meanwhile, Todd reappears alive and hides out in the gardener's shed at Llanfair, where Rebecca is an occasional babysitter, and Todd makes his presence known to her. Rebecca and Powell become engaged as a serial rapist begins terrorizing Llanview. Todd is suspected but it is ultimately revealed that Powell, threatened by Rebecca's attraction to Todd, had descended into madness and been raping women to emulate Todd and thereby win Rebecca's love. Powell is caught and institutionalized, and Rebecca leaves town. In 2009, former Llanview police detective
John McBain is investigating a serial murderer who leaves clues pointing to Marty's 1993 rape. A visit to Powell, not lucid and still in a sanitarium, seems fruitless until John stumbles upon Rebecca's name and learns that a "Dr. Marty Saybrooke" has been visiting and treating Powell. On May 1, 2009, it is revealed that Rebecca has been impersonating Marty and aiding Powell in a sinister plot against people connected with Todd and Marty. With her lab technician brother
Kyle Lewis settled in Llanview, Rebecca helps Powell escape from the institution, imprisons John there, and helps Powell drug and abduct Todd, Marty, and Todd's ex-wives
Blair Cramer and
Téa Delgado with the intent of killing Todd and anyone he cares about. Powell confesses to the string of murders. John shoots Powell and saves Todd and Marty; as he pulls Blair and Téa from a gas-filled basement, Rebecca lights a match and is presumed dead in the subsequent explosion. ==Powell Lord III== }}
Clayton-Powell "Powell" Lord III is a fictional character on the American
soap opera One Life to Live. He is the grandson of Victor Lord's brother Clayton-Powell, and is one of several Llanview University students who participated in the 1993
gang rape of
Marty Saybrooke. Viki's son
Kevin is also implicated but ultimately exonerated; the rape had been led by
Todd Manning, and a guilty Powell had participated due to
peer pressure. Powell receives a lesser sentence and later falls in love with
Rebecca Lewis, who herself had seen a softer side in the imprisoned Todd and fell in love with him. A subsequent series of rapes is initially blamed on Todd, but it is revealed that Powell is the culprit, believing that he could win Rebecca's love if he became a rapist like Todd. After being institutionalized after the rape of Marty Saybrooke, Powell bought the old fraternity house where Todd and Powell and friend Zach Rosen committed the crime that would haunt Powell. Clearly driven mad, he went to great lengths to put Kevin's room back together exactly as it was the night of the rape (right down to the fish in the tank and the posters on the walls). He and Rebecca Lewis arranged for Todd (in reality was Todd's twin Victor Lord Jr.), Tea Delgado, Blair Cramer, and Marty Saybrooke kidnapped, holding Victor "Todd" bound to the bed, threatening to kill him and Blair and Marty, as his way of atoning for his part in Marty's rape. Powell, clad in the same Frat sweater he wore the night of his crime against Marty, left Marty and "Todd" alone in the room and forced Blair and Tea to the basement at gunpoint and kept them captive in the utility room, which was leaking gas, poisoning the two women. Rebecca later brought to Powell's attention that Chloe Brennan (Powell and Todd's mutual relative Jessica Buchanan's daughter) was in fact Todd's and Marty's granddaughter, Hope Thornhart. Powell tricked Victor into believing that he would let them go to raise Hope, but was ready to kill "Todd" at that moment. Victor goaded the cowardly cousin to do what he was threatening to do, only to be shot to death by John McBain. The basement exploded when Rebecca lit a match, but Tea, Blair, Marty, Victor, and Hope made it out alive with the help of John McBain, putting to rest the saga of insane Powell Lord III for good, along with the rape, leaving only a future with new grandchild/niece, Hope. ==Dylan Moody==
