General Hospital: Perkie's Observations

It's the morning after.  The hospital is still on lockdown, as Aiden still hasn't been found.

Patrick and Robin share some cute time together as they discuss Mac and his recovery.  When Robin leaves, Lisa starts flirting with Patrick and he brushes her off.  Later on, Patrick gets paged to a room and finds Lisa, half naked, waiting for him.  He tells her to bugger off and she angrily tells him that he can't use her and then throw her away.

Carly witnesses one of Michael's nightmares, but he refuses to discuss it with her.  She tells him about her time at Ferncliffe and how she survived.  Kristina comes in and discusses her nightmares with Michael. Suddenly, Michael has become the go-to guy for heavy discussions.

Lucky tells Niz that the baby still hasn't been found (Blooper of the day:  JJ calls him Hayden instead of Aiden).  Everyone wonders why Jason killed Franco before getting the baby's whereabouts.  Nikolas decides he'll offer a 5 million dollar reward but Lucky tells him not to, since it will bring out all of the crazies.  Steven suggests lifting the lockdown, but Liz begs him not to.  Lucky suggest allowing staff to enter, but having security measures to monitor them. 

Dante and Jason arrive at the penthouse to an ecstatic Sam.  Dante says he'll be back later in the day to bring Jason back to Pentonville and leaves them alone.  Spinelli informs JaSam that he has found a way to remove the ankle monitor without detection and has found several places that they can run to.  Sam is thrilled with Spin's work. I wonder why Spin can't use his cyberskills for good, like checking hospital monitors for escaping babies. 

Dante heads home to Lulu, but they are interrupted by Ronnie, who wonders why Jason isn't already back in Pentonville. He brings up the whole issue about Dante's loyatlies to Sonny.  Shut it Ronnie.

Brook and Mike are making small talk while she pays for her order.  Johnny arrives, but Mike refuses to serve him.  Brook offers him part of her breakfast and asks why he's so against Sonny. Johnny tells her the whole story and, though she's friends with Sonny, she doesn't begrudge Johnny his vendetta.  I say she's just trying to get into his pants (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)

Dante comes across Brook and Johnny. He is not happy to see his mother's ex with his young friend and makes his displeasure known.  And for the first time, I want to say "Dante, honey, shut it.  Just this once."

Liz accuses Steven of mismanaging his staff, who allowed someone to take her baby.  Lucky finds Aiden's ankle monitor and realizes the lockdown was for nothing, since the baby was likely taken out long before the lockdown happened. 

Jason decides he won't run, that he made a choice and will follow through.  This sets Sam off.  She refuses to go along with the plan, since she's worried that he'll be forced to kill someone to defend himself and the five-year sentence will turn into life.  Not once does she think about her family, until Jason points out that she'd be leaving them behind at which point she's all "yeah I'll miss them," but would rather spend her life on the run with Jason.  I was going to make a comment here about Sam, but well, my mother always told me if I don't have anything nice to say, I shouldn't say anything at all.

Perkie, THANK YOU "Dante, honey, shut it. Just this once." Welcome to our world just for a few seconds LOL

Was very disappointed in Mike today. As if he was Mr Perfect ... He has of course forgotten that Johnny has saved Michael's life in the warehouse explosion ... very nice of him. If it is to make us do not regret Mike disappearing from our screen in a few weeks for good, it is working.
And Johnny, what Mike just did is called "discrimination" because he refused to serve a customer who has done him nothing. You can sue him for that honey !
Love Johnny and Brook. Nice change from Momma Pasta and her permanent lectures and teary eyes.

Lante ... So Dante has the time to bring back Jason to Sam and then to join Lulu ... IN BED !!! Of course ! Because Lulu must be recuperating from her exhausting back and forth to LA (for what ? Still didn't get this one) so why show herself at work ? Can these two have normal conversation and scenes out of their bed ? And Dante still hasn't found the way to close his access to his apartment.
I am really wondering what Guza is doing. He knows that people are fed up of the "Lante in bed" thing ... that people are complaining about it after the figures of "making out/romantic screentime" were released ... and he just gives us more to infuriate people even more (especially after the "Lulu goes to Hollywood stuff").
THis is really becoming really weird ... What is Guza trying to do ? Pissing off people even more against Lante on purpose ?

And Dante, since when are you supposed to have an opinion about who Brook is dating ? Shut the hell up and mind your own business for once ! He thinks he is so much better than Johnny and has such an high opinion of himself ... He makes me sick ...

Weird also the fact that I am kind of liking Crazy Lisa ... she is much funnier and interesting now than before .. and Patrick sweating about his own Glenn Close is priceless. Karma ?

Has anyone checked if the dead body was really Franco ? Fingerprints ? DNA ? Let me guess ... No one ... Not ven our favorite super-hero cop Dante in charge of the case (remember how proudly he was showing his badge of the PCPD ...).

Liz seems to be on the road to a nice second stay to Shaddy Brook. Don't know if you get a discount for a second time there ?

And I am a Liz lover and a former Jasam hater (who benefited from the snoozefest that Lante is to be dethroned of my most hated couple list) but I would say that for once I liked that Sam was not all "Jaiiison, I'll do whatever you ask Jaiiison" but tried to fight the guy. Was it for the right reasons ? I don't really care but at least she was showing backbone and was not accepting the "I am your guy - Do what I say and Adore what I do and Say" rule that Lulu has chosen as her motto.

Did I miss something, or did Jason not even mention that Liz's baby, Jake's brother, was probably lost for good if Franco is really dead? Why does it seem like 3 different shows are happening, one in the hospital, the "Jason Show" and then everyone else?

Thank you jpp - I was wondering why LooLoo was in bed and not standing outside the hospital or at the PCPD wondering what happened to HER nephew and does she even know about Ethan. And why isn't Sam aware that her sister was almost killed

And sorry but NO WAY in hell would Jason not care that a child of Liz was missing...HELLO she is still his son's mother.

This is why this show pisses me off.

Also regarding Sam...she all but confessed to always be his "yes girl" and the one time she should be is when she wants to leave her family behind like vapor. Please this hater thinks its typical of her to dump her entire family to run off with a criminal (whom I love). And I never heard Jason even think about running away with her, he was no I do my time..now that man is earning his points with me again.

It surprises me that Sam would be oh so willing to just drop everything and run away with Jason, the writers are so weird with writing for female characters. Do they really expect us to believe that Sam would just jump town for Jason while her sister is recovering from being abused, yet alone almost got her head blown off by her abusers even more abusive father, how come Alexis hasn't called Sam yet,even though no one can get into the hospital you'd think she'd be outside waiting for her sister to come out or be seen with Molly? The writers are making the characters involved in their own stories oblivious to everything else going on in Port Charles. Lucky and LuLu or even Tracy not knowing that Ethan has been shot, Jason not knowing that Franco had a hand in kidnapping Liz's baby, you'd think Lucky or another member of the PCPD would contact Dante while he was in LA looking for Franco. Jax doesn't even call to check up on Josslyn or Carly knowing that a crazed killer is on the loose who already had previous contact with his daughter. Oh GH how you disappoint me.

Perkie if someone at the hospital had asked Spinelli to use his computer skills to look for the baby I'm betting he would have been more than happy to to help. But then they'd have to actually allow the characters to cross stories and we know TPTB don't allow that.

Also it didn't seem to me that Spinelli, Sam, Jason, Dante, Lulu or even Ronnie knew about Mac and Ethan being shot and except for Lulu and Dante, the rest don't seem to know about the kidnapping either. Wouldn't you think Dante and Ronnie would be concerned about Mac? Wouldn't you think Lulu would be concerned about her brother being shot? Wouldn't you think Dante would have asked where Michael was? Wouldn't you think that Dante, Jason and Sam would be worried about Kristina and Michael both having just been in a shoot out? And wouldn't you think that Sam, Jason and Lulu would be worried about Liz & Nik's baby being kidnapped? What the heck is up with that? Puzzled

I didn't get the LuLu time line. She was in LA at the same time as Dante and Jason. Did she fly back with them and then jump into bed, while Dante took Jason home?
And why didn't we get the resolution of the Jason holding a gun to Dante's head scene? When did they patch things up, so that Dante would basically leave him at home?
THIS SHOW IS SO STUPID RIGHT NOW!

Raven I just watched the JaSam clips on line (not the whole show) the way it looked to me the convo isnt over yet.

What I did see in the clips is a guy considering it. Spin comes down and explains exactly how the ankle monitoring thing was going to work - he didnt stop him. Notice that when Spin comes down his hands are empty. Then Spin retrieves all of the fake ids and lays out the plan. If Jason's answer was NO from jump and he wasnt even remotely considering it, why would he let Spin go into all the details. Then there is the moment when Sam asks Spin what he is going to do and Spin forlornly says I'll stay in my regrettably pink room. To me that was the moment when Jason knew he couldnt leave because it brought home to him all the people he and Sam would have to leave behind.

As for Sam being unconcerned about her family, Sam doesnt know about what happened at the Hospital. She is weighing the fact that Jason likely could die or be parted from her forever vs. a family that would all still have one another. Krissy is arguably the most fragile and she has Alexis who has been cleared of the Kiefer criminal charges, Molly, Michael, Aunt Carly and Uncle Jax, Sonny, Morgan, and a therapist already working with her. I am not saying Krissy and Sam wouldnt miss one another, but they could still talk and email and if they went somewhere with no extradition, Krissy could even visit. Let me ask this - if Sam met Jax's 2 cousin Heath and after a whirlwind romance he asked her to come and live with him in Australia, would people be claiming that it would be selfish of her to move away. I think in Sam's mind - and remember this whole thing was news to her since Spin didnt discuss it while Jason was gone - I think in her mind it would be like that. I wonder too - what if someone like Maxie went in to witness protection and Matt decided to go with her, leaving Patrick behind. Would that be selfish? Maybe I am just selfish too, because I would choose the love of my life over my parents too.Its not like this is some guy she just started dating.

Also note the look on Jason's face when she asks him to run away with her - the very last shot. His whole face softens with love for her. Sorry I am not buying that there isnt a big part of him that wants to run off with her. were it not for michael I dont think he would even hesitate.

I just kind of think its funny - when sam agrees she is the "yes girl" and got ripped on for not yelling at Jason for offering to go to jail for Sonny more than she did, now she fights him and she is getting bagged on for that.

EET - huge difference is that if she ran off with Jax' cousin she would be able to come back and see her family. But people who are on the run don't get that luxury. So in turn she is giving them up.

I never saw an ounce of Jason thinking about running, what I did see was a guy trying to find the right thing to say to two people who care deeply about him.

And I blame editing on a lot of what has gone on the last few days. But I amn ot even touching on what Sam knows about her family now..what she does know is that Krissy is still very damaged from the abuse. Does she not think she would be hurt if she ran off..I mean Molly would think it was hte most romantic thing ever (stupid child)

I think tomorrow will show Jason saying if it was any other choice he would run with her, but he can't leave Michael or Carly. It must sting that he always brings up Carly, I mean she is a grown ass woman and needs to take care of herself already.

Wait for next week EET when I blame Sam for Liz's kid getting kidnapped..you know it might not have happened if Sam shot Franco...LMAO Evil

Oh please. Sam is also responsible for global warming and high unemployment rates to hear you tell it LOL

Sam froze. Its happen to Lizard aplenty not to mention sitting on her duff whilst Nik was in danger and Emily was being murdered - Emily might be with us now if only Lameabeth had gotten off her duff and gone with her.

As for the giving them up, people in witness protection dont get to come visit (my other example) and realistically if they go to Cape Verde or Taiwan or some other place without extradition, the Davis Clan and the Corinthos/Jax clan could visit as much as they like.

I am sure K would be sad, but I dont think she would be hurt because she would understand that she is going away to college and until then she has a ton of people around to support her. I think she gets that Sam wouldnt be running off with just any guy.

The block taping along with bad writing is starting to seriously affect the quality of this show. I can see how taping that way could save them money, but they need to learn how to write cohesive episodes and block tape accordingly. I agree that it seems like there are multiple shows going on at the same time and they are all on their own island. Lulu, Dante, Sam, Ronnie, and Jason not even mentioning Aiden and the hospital situation makes NO sense. Like I have said before, I do not necessarily hold characters accountable for bad writing.

As far as Sam goes, I have to agree with those that think she is being selfish and completely absorbed in Jason again. I don't like the character, but I even more than that, I don't like it when characters (mainly women) just lose all sense of themselves into relationships. Moving away for a job or something is one thing, but going on the run forever is completely different. That is literally giving up your life without regard for family and the life that they have known. I think waiting a few years makes a lot more sense than running and being fugitives for the rest of their lives.

I am starting to really like crazy Lisa. Considering how long she has been around, it is a bit sudden to show her so completely unhinged, but to her credit Brianna Brown has risen to the occasion. More motivation for her obsession would help me understand and be fully engaged in the story, but her drinking Patrick's coffee and saying "I can taste you" and popping out form under the covers in that bed both made me laugh.

As for Dante, Brook, and Johnny, I had to shake my head at the writers consciously or unconsciously making writing Dante's character horribly. I do not mind him not approving of his old friend Brook making googly eyes with a mobster, or being happy that said mobster was no longer going to be "dating" his mother, I would feel the same way. I didn't mind the crack about tattling to Olivia. But instead of writing him as warning Brook as a friend, they make him give orders to Johnny. I know they have not gotten along since the trial, but the writers did Dante's character's popularity no favor by writing it the way they did.

I do like it when Ronnie points out that Jason and Sonny are criminal who deserve to be in jail, and not romantic heroes. He reminds me of Taggert in his hatred for them, and for that I will like him until they inevitably make him Det. Poletti's killer so Guza can have their Sonny/Dante reconciliation that ONLY he wants.

Also, wasn't part of Michael's release dependent on him getting counseling? Instead of seeing that, we get him acting as shrink to everyone and his mother literally.

Brook Lynn's accent is REALLY starting to annoy the crap outta me!!! Just thought I'd get that off my chest!!! And that bagel was CLEARLY not the only thing she wanted to share with Johnny boy today!! Not that I blame her. He can have a piece of my bagel ANY day of the week...... Wink Wink

And a NEW LOW FOR LULU AND LANTE !!!
Even if they don't know about Ethan and Mac which is not possible because Lucky must know now and the first thing Lulu should have done when landing should have been to call his brother to get some news, their behavior is really pathetic.
I am happy to see that her nephew kidnapped doesn't prevent Lulu to sleep, babbling to her boyfriend (god Lante is so stupid with their cheesy lines that I just wanted to slap them) and probably make love ...

Who is this girl ??? Her nephew is kidnapped is the only thing she can tell when Dante wakes her up is laughing stupidely and asking him not to have so many close calls ? ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? What about taking a shower and trying to run to the hospital, calling, trying to find what she could do to help.
UN-BE-LIE-VA-BLE !!! Lulu is selfish to the core ...
Now wonder so many are rooting for her to pay the high price for all her betrayals and selfishness.

Best line of the day for me ? Ronnie to Dante because he said at last what a lot of different posters have written here for weeks "Maybe when somebody else's son dies because of Corinthos, maybe your remember that (that he lied about Sonny shooting him)" ... That it will be on Dante if Sonny kills someone else ! AT LAST someone said it and honestly I don't care if it comes from Ronnie the rotten cop because it means that at least TPTB are aware of this idea ! YESSSSS !
And Ronnie is right : Sonny and Jason ARE CRIMINALS ! When will Dante stop having this condescending attitude towards Ronnie when Ronnie is only telling the truth, whether or not you like the character (if any like him) ...

And Dante acting all possessive with Brook ? What a douche ... And of course giving attitude to Johnny as he is soooo much better ...
I officially HATE DANTE MORE THAN SONNY, day one for me !

Loved Carly - Michael
Loved Johnny - Brook (Johnny was some sexy cookie today !).
I also won't regret Mike considering how he acted today, can't wait for him to throw out his beloved Sonny for almost blowing off Kristina ...

I am kind of liking the Scrubs/Lisa storyline too now. Lisa is really pretty good in the role of the "obsessed mistress"
Not so much in the stolen baby story ...

Ronnie is already a criminal and a dirty cop!!! He robbed a liquor store at gun point and allowed Franco to take the blame. Once he became a cop he covered for ALL of Franco's crimes, thereby aiding and abetting a SERIAL KILLER!!! Ronnie should be locked up in prison and has no room to talk about ANYONE!!!

Sassy for once I disagree with you.

And I hope that GH won't go the easy way by making of course Ronnie being the one responsible for Mr Poletti's death when he is now supposed to be close in age from Dante so I can't wait how the writers will justify that. All that to give an opportunity for a big reunion scene between Sonny and his Mini-Me

I don't see why Ronnie doesn't have room to talk to anyone ? And Sonny and Jason are criminals. Much worse than Ronnie (who released Franco NOT knowing he was a aerial killer and Franco killed to kill him twice !).
In this case Sonny and Jason should be mute for life no ?

edenpark - I didn't say Sonny and Jason aren't criminals. Only that Ronnie is as well so he doesn't have room to talk. Ronnie ROBBED A LIQUOR STORE AT GUN POINT! What part of that is not criminal? He let Franco go to jail for him. Criminal! Then he covered for Franco knowing he was a serial killer OVER AND OVER AGAIN! How do you think Franco knew to leave a photo on Jason's bed at Pentonville? RONNIE! A CRIMINAL!!!

And Ronnie in NOT supposed to be Dante's age! Ronnie trained Dante. He was his supervisor when they worked at the NYPD and back in the undercover days he used to talk about his wife and children to Dante. Now he never mentions them. He's at least 15 years older than Dante which is more than old enough to have killed Lt. Palleti. I happen to think Franco did that and Ronnie knows it and covered it up by blaming Sonny for it. So we'll see. But age wise it fits perfectly! Sorry but your hero Ronnie is nothing but a dirty cop and a CRIMINAL!!!

IA with Sassy, it seemed like half the people on the show didn't know about Mac and Ethan being shot or about the kidnapping. That's just some bad writing there and makes no sense.

Also, IA with you edenpark, about hoping GH doesn't take the easy way out in making Ronnie the one who killed Lt. Poletti. I'm not even a big Ronnie fan, but I think that would be a copout, would probably just be a way to have Dante leave the PCPD and join the mob, and I like Dante being a cop. We need some cops to balance out all the mobsters on the show.

I like Sam, but I have to admit I like her better away from Jason because at the end of the day, I think any woman that's with Jason is always going to lose herself in him and I think today was another example of that. I'd love to see Sam explore her Cassadine side and see a story where she searches for her father. I think Sam loves her family and it wouldn't be an easy decision to leave them, but at the end of the day, Jason is the centerpiece of the show so of course Sam, like pretty much all of Jason's other love interests before her, would be willing to give up ever seeing her family for him.

GH should have made Lisa crazy much sooner. She's definitely more entertaining as a psycho, it's just too bad we had too suffer through like half a year of blahLisa to get to crazyLisa. I can't really tell if she really wants Patrick or just wants to get back at him. It'd be much cooler if she wanted to get back at him rather than wanting him which would make her a little pathetic.

Johnny/Brook Lynn are better than Jolivia to me, but the pairing I would love to see is Johnny/Maxie.

I wish GH would bring back Genie Francis. Laura should really be there for this Nik/Liz/Lucky stuff.

I forgot to mention that I have never liked Mike, but today I hated him. Who the f is he to throw Johnny out of Kelly's? Unless we missed something Bobby and Luke own that place, not some loser gambler who inflicted Sonny Corinthos on the world.

Sassy, I understand Ronnie did something bad as a kid, but I don't expect perfection from soap characters. And I am pretty sure only let Franco off once and before he knew that he was actually a murderer.

Ronnie definately mentioned during his talk with Franco last go round that he helped Franco avoid the French police knowing Franco was involved with a series of deaths that happened while he was in country. That makes him guilty of accessory after the fact.

Here's ronnie saying that the PCPD is interested in Franco and "they dont know the half of it". He says that Franco is "#1 on the Interpol Watch List" because the French know that he was guilty. Franco walked all over PC for weeks when Ronnie knew all this stuff about the murder that happened near where Dante picked Franco up back in the day, he knew abou the posing etc.

I do agree that today was one more big win for the Dante/Lulu/Lante haters ... the question that has been asked several times in the past days is "is it conscious or not from Guza ?". If it is, congrats it's brilliant, if it is not, it proves that the writers have NO idea how the viewers will welcome their plots and it is very scary.

I will add my little rock to teh already huge mountain of the Dante/Lulu/Lante hate.

Dante is a real jackass. I really couldn't believe how he behaved with Johnny and Brook. WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS ?

I respectfully disagree with you Watchthegallday when you say that you don't mind him not approving of his old friend Brook making googly eyes with a mobster. This was very chauvinistic Dante again today. As if Brook cannot be adult enough to know who she wants to date ? What gives him the right to behave as if he knows better than her ? This is unbelievable ! And if you want to let a comment go, you take the girl for lunch and you try to explain some of your reserves IN PRIVATE. You don't do it in front of the guy as if the girl was one of your possession and she didn't know better.
This type of macho comment was so disrespectful to Brook !
And the body langage ? OMG, this guy needs to learn manner and that he is not the kind of a cheptel of women who would answer to him. He truly disgusts me ...

And what I hated too beyond Dante's behavior toward Brook was his behavior towards Johnny.

Let me make sure I remember well. Johnny busted Dante because as usual Mr Supercop was speaking too much and too laud on the docks. Johnny could have ratted him out (as he said at the time that would have won him points with Sonny) but he didn't for Olivia and because he trusted Dante's will to put Sonny behind bars. He saved Dante's life by not doing that. Sonny shoots Dante and Dante covers for Sonny putting Johnny at risk because now Johnny is a traitor to Sonny.
But Dante selfish to the core doesn't get one second about covering for his mom's boyfriend whose life he is putting on the line. no no no ...
And then he starts to give Johnny attitudes as if he is better than Johnny and Johnny is so bad ?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME ungrateful jerk !

Dante's behavior today was pure typicalDante : selfish, self-righteous, self absorbed condescending chauvinistic Dante.

He just makes me want too puke.

Hey Sassy, what's happening girl ?

"My hero Ronnie" ? Where ? How ? Reread my post, I called him a rotten cop !
I don't like him (difficult to like the guy honestly) but it's true that I loved that the writers made him say today.

And my point was just that if Ronnie cannot express an opinion because he is rotten and a criminal (at least an accessory I do agree, I didn't remember all his conversations as I don't really care about the character), what about all the mobsters who are known and proven criminals, what about Dante who let Sonny loose ? That's all I was saying ... That if you cannot talk because you are a criminal or assimilated to one, not a lot of people would talk in PC ...

And when I talk of age, I was referring to the fact that they have aged Johnny and Dante of 10 years in a few weeks ... so what about Ronnie as they had him state that he "was raised with Dante" a few days after the "aging" thing (I remembered because I was thinking People are getting older and other younger WTH) ?

And considering that I cannot stand Dante, I will have NO PROBLEM with Ronnie taking the blame because it will mean a Sonny/Dante reunion that will pull the last nail in Dante's coffin. Just think it would be the obvious and easy route for Guza and I'd rather Mr Poletti's body remains between Sonny and Dante and Sonny just disappear to go back to NYC or wherever ...
And the two true cops that I like Lucky and Mac will still be standing.

So you see I think/hope we are good in the end ... as most of the time when I read your posts. Smile You seem to hate Ronnie and I don't care one bit about the guy.

But I still maintain that I liked that someone stated at last to Dante that if Sonny kills again, Dsnte will have a responsability in it because he didn't send him to jail Wink

EET, I didn't remember the Ronnie comments about Franco being Number 1 on the Interpol Watch List ... As I just said I don't care about the guy and FF him most of the time ...

But if Franco is Number 1 on the Interpol Watch List, how is it possible that he could organize such a big exhibition and nobody would stop him ???

I don't know if there is a vodka shot competition right now at Prospect but the writers/editors have never been as bad as lately. It is never good when all the viewers are WTH ..

By the way I noticed another issue today. Johnny said that Sonny kidnapped him because he thought that Johnny was responsible for shooting Kate AT HER WEDDING ???
Excuse me, it was because Michael shot Kate accidentally and then ran away and Sonny thought that Johnny and Claudia had kidnapped Michael to prevent him to retaliate ...
Kate was shot ANOTHER time after that and Sonny thought it was Karpov and shot him point blank (one more) under Olivia's eyes ...

How is it possible that the writers are making such huge mistakes ? It reminds me when the Z house was in ruins and Lulu fell when it had in fact been fully rebuilt before and hosted Sonny and Claudia's wedding. These are not details ... these are related to major events of the show ... DOn't they keep track of this ?

edenpark - Reread it and we are good! Smile Sorry I got so hot & bothered about Ronnie but I really truly hate him! Evil And I agree, if only innocent people could talk in PC then pretty much no one would be talking. LOL Wink

It's Ronnie that said that quote which I also agree with.

And you're 100% correct about the convo today with Brook & Johnny. Writers or no writers, shouldn't BB remember his own history? And I said the same thing when Lulu fell through the floor of the fully renovated house. It didn't make sense then and it still doesn't. The writers/TPTB have been messing up a lot lately. I'm catching more and more things every day and it's very frustrating. If this is how TPTB are saving money they need to find a better way to do it because this is really hurting the stories!! Angry

Sassy Beer No problem my friend Wink

And I was wondering the same thing about the actors remembering or not about history.
Kate being shot was not really Johnny's story (or BB's scenes). It was him being kidnapped and Sonny torturing him to know where Michael was ... And Johnny did not attend Sonny's wedding ...
As Lulu/JMB wasn't at Claudia and Sonny's wedding as well as Johnny (they were together drinking at Jakes if I remember well).

I always wondered if the actors are truly watching the show even when they are not on. My guess is not so the knowledge and the history should at least lie on the writers no ?

I think I've seen interviews where a lot of the actors do admit they don't really watch the show. And then there are the actors who are recasts who probably have no idea of the history of their characters. But it's not really their job, imo. It should be the job of the writers and the EP. That is what they're paid for. The actors are just acting out what the writers write, the writers are responsible for creating the stories and writing the scripts. GH does a terrible job with continuity and remembering each character's history, the writers seem like they re-write history all the time just so it can fit the plot point they want to tell.

edenpark - I agree except that Michael being missing is because he ran away when he accidentally shot Kate not when Kate was shot at the wedding. Wouldn't the actor know the back story as to why he was being kidnapped and beaten? I guess the way TPTB work probably not.

The responsibility of the history should lie with the writers AND Guza! Guza said in an article recently that he has detailed boards with long range story outlines, weekly outlines and daily details. So someone should be overseeing things to make sure there is continuity and that the details are filled in and make sense. Clearly this year someone has dropped the ball big time! Whoever had that job needs to be rehired fast! LOL

GH needs a shake up in the writing of history and the editing... They are saving money and they are shooting more episodes in short time and I think it is hurting them more...I hope someone notice it and will do it better..
Aramis Sassy EET and edenpark Big smile

About Sam, I really think she is not thinking clearly.. she is afraid that when Jason will be back in prison she will never see him again.
Jason has a big big part in her life, he was her family before she had family, he helped her trough the toughest time of her life.. they just got back to each other and she doesn't want to lose that... She does love her family and when she will think clearly she will not want to lose them..
right now she is scared for her love of her life, and she wants to be with him.
I also love that she stood her grounds with him...
About Jason- he loves her,and i think he did want to run for a second, but than he knew he can't he want to have a life with her that they both can be with their families,and not have to look over their shoulder..he said " I want to BUILD SOLID FOUNDATION"...
BTW Carly and her kids are Jason's family like Alexis and Kristina and molly are for Sam.. they both will not want to lose them..
KMO and SBU killed that scenes..

Dante and Lulu Blah
Ronnie I am with Sassy he has no room to talk.
I think Brook and Johnny have amazing chemistry But they need to stop and talk about Claudia and Sonny PLEASE

Lisa, I don't know But I am starting to really like her LOL the actress is really doing amazing job with the Fatal attraction, and I enjoy see Patrick sweat, I said it before I think Lisa played with him from the start but he was stupid enough to get in to her hands, and right now he is paying for that and i am enjoying it..
the only sad part is Robin.. i want her to be nasty with Lisa and patrick.

Liz I almost felt sorry for her but than she blamed Steve??? WTH?? Steve has a hospital he needs to take care of he does everything to locate the baby.. UGH

Michael is Jason Morgan JR!!!!! I loved his scenes with Carly..

Ok wait - why is it that when Liz does something totally natural for someone under stress its a UGH...but Sam does something its because she is not thinking clearly.

Sorry I call Bullturd (no offense GHLover)

Wouldn't any women is Liz situation be mad at the Chief of Staff when their child goes missing. While Sam did not even consider the situation. Liz was the one who is not thinking clearly and Sam is the one being selfish.

Addtional, EET if Jason went into the witness protection program I would have no problem with Sam going, but I find it sad to think if Sam went into WP would Jason follow her. This is one of my problems with anyone who is involve with Jason not named Michael or Carly
