Country superstar Shania Twain is making waves again but this time it is not just with her music.

If you thought her first visit to 'The Odyssey' cruise ship was eventful you have seen nothing yet!
'Sophisticated Ladies Week' Gets Spicy: Shania Twain's Heather Heats Things Up With Captain Massey
This week's episode is titled 'Sophisticated Ladies' and that is exactly what it is bringing. Shania Twain returns as the "horny widow" Heather and sparks are still flying with Captain Massey played by the one and only Don Johnson. Remember when Heather first appeared during 'Singles Week' and connected with the Captain over their shared losses? Well their connection is about to get a whole lot deeper or maybe a whole lot more complicated!
In the episode promo we see Heather and Captain Massey getting very cozy during 'Sophisticated Ladies Week' which sounds like a rebranded 'Cougar Week' – cheeky ABC! We even hear Captain Massey bragging that their time together was "fire". And apparently all that heat led to something totally unexpected a surprise pregnancy!
Baby on Board?! Shania Twain's Character Drops a Pregnancy Bombshell and Captain Massey is in Shock (Kind Of)
Yep you read that right Heather reveals to Captain Massey that she is pregnant! Even though she thought she was going through menopause nature had other plans. Avery the ship's nurse is as surprised as anyone checking Heather for all sorts of things to rule out a false positive. But nope it is real. Heather is expecting and Captain Massey is going to be a dad again!
How does Massey react? Surprisingly well actually especially compared to how Max and Tristan have handled pregnancy news on this show. Captain Massey steps up immediately reassuring Heather they are in this together. He even rushes to her side when she has a scare thinking she might be miscarrying. Turns out everything is fine and Massey vows to be a present father this time around. Does this mean Captain Massey might be leaving The Odyssey soon to focus on fatherhood? We will have to wait and see!
Donna Mills and Jaclyn Smith Join the Cruise Fun: More Iconic Guest Stars on 'Doctor Odyssey'
Shania Twain is not the only big name gracing 'Doctor Odyssey' this week. TV icons Donna Mills of 'Knots Landing' and 'General Hospital' fame and Jaclyn Smith from 'Charlie's Angels' are also joining the 'Sophisticated Ladies Week' festivities! This episode is packed with star power.
Donna Mills plays a glamorous passenger who seems to have her sights set on Dr. Max Bankman played by Joshua Jackson. In the promo she even asks him point blank "Are you attracted to me?" Things are definitely getting flirty and dramatic on The Odyssey. Jaclyn Smith's role is still a bit mysterious but with these three legendary actresses on board you know the 'Sophisticated Ladies' episode is going to be one to watch.
Beyond the Romance and Babies: Medical Crisis and Shipboard Drama Still Abound
Of course 'Doctor Odyssey' is not just about romance and surprise pregnancies it is also a medical drama. And this week is no exception. A new medical crisis hits the ship a contagion! Dr. Max Bankman freaks out understandably remembering his own experience as one of the first COVID-19 patients. Captain Massey tells him to handle it "tactfully" which is probably easier said than done when you are dealing with a potential outbreak on a cruise ship.
And remember Avery's pregnancy storyline? Well that is still ongoing. The father of her baby is still a mystery and both Tristan and Max are still trying to win her over and prove they would be good dads. Looks like Avery has got her hands full with two men vying for her attention and a baby on the way all while dealing with shipboard medical emergencies. Talk about drama!
