General Hospital: Perkie's Observations
Delores shows up at the garage to ask Johnny for the clothes he was wearing the night Lisa was murdered. She reminds him they have a witness who saw him on the water. She’s angry that he didn’t come down to the station, as asked, and that he’s refusing to cooperate. Johnny claims he took his clothes to the cleaners and is currently wearing it. Johnny removes his shirt and is in the process of unbuttoning his pants, but she says she can arrest him for harassment. Delores wonders why he took the boat and if he saw Lisa that night. Johnny feels she’s trying to prove herself in a man’s world.
Mac and Ronnie are discussing the case, wondering who the evidence is pointing to. Ronnie says everyone and that a lot of the evidence is missing, like Maxie’s dress. Dante shows up with information that Johnny was seen on the water that night, making him a suspect. Ronnie accuses him of having no objectivity. Dante wants back on the case. Mac points out Lulu won’t be happy, but Dante says he’ll deal with Lulu. Mac says he’ll get him a partner. After Mac leaves, Ronnie tells Dante that Olivia is still a suspect.
Robin leaves a phone message for Monica, telling her she may not be at the next board meeting because she might be out of town. Maxie shows up, looking for Matt, saying he left her bed in the middle of the night and she can’t reach him. Patrick wonders why Matt cancelled all his consults at three in the morning. Maxie thinks something is seriously wrong, but Patrick tells Robin that whatever Matt is up to, he doesn’t want anyone to know.
Shawn wonders why Carly’s at the hotel and not at home where she can be protected. Carly refuses to let Franco ruin her life. Spinelli shows up to chat with his new cyber friends. Shawn says he’s meeting with Jason and he’s assigned Max and Milo to guard Carly. M&M are distracted by Spin’s new computer skills.
Maxie finds Spinelli and asks for his help in locating Matt. Spinelli has one of his new cyber friends access Matt’s phone records, which says the last call was placed at 3:08am. Spin thinks Matt might have had a good reason to vanish.
Sam shows Jason the tag in the alley. Jason tells her she doesn’t need to get involved in this, but Sam insists she does. Girls are being assaulted, someone needs to take care and help those women. Jason thinks Franco’s watching them fighting each other. Shawn takes a look at the tag and decides part of it are elements of the periodic table, but doesn’t know what the last part means. Jason tells him to stay close to Carly.
Sonny tells Kate he wants her to show him the parts of the city that matters to her. After much back and forth, they go to a museum. When they return, they joke about it and lunch. Then Kate says she wants to go back to the brownstone and deal with what happened.
Liz’s hero walks around Windermere, still barefoot and open shirted. Clearly it’s not December in those parts. When he falls asleep, the lady in white floats around him. He finds a book with a picture of Laura portrait.
Monica’s not happy that four doctors are implicated in Lisa’s murder. She wonders why Patrick passed on a consult. Patrick says he might not be available for the procedure which surprises Robin.
Anthony finds half naked Johnny with a flustered Delores. She leaves with Johnny’s shirt and Anthony wonders if someone saw Johnny that night. Johnny admits someone saw him on the boat, but that his father could have been seen as well. Anthony points out that Sonny is out of town, Jason’s dealing with Franco and their territory is wide open. Johnny tells him to keep his nose clean.
Alexis and Molly talk about visiting Kristina. Alexis says it feels odd not to have Kris at home. Molly says Kris is wondering if Sonny pulled strings to get her into Yale. However, Alexis denies that. Mac shows up to talk to Alexis, so Molly heads out to the movies.
Mac is worried about Maxie and Robin possibly needing an attorney. He wants her to represent them if needed. Alexis figures he thinks one of them killed Lisa. Mac thinks he might be overreacting, but that both girls were on the boat and both had motive. Alexis says Robin would have reason to act defensively, but Mac feels Robin would have come forward. Alexis doesn’t think she’s the best person to defend them, given her past. However, Mac trusts her. She mentions that Sonny has asked her to be on retainer. Mac asks her to think about it.
Ethan arrives to talk to Alexis about the mystery man on Spoon Island, explaining about the footprints and that it isn’t’ Helena. Alexis checks Molly’s GPS and realizes she went over to Windemere.
Shawn heads back to the hotel to find Max and Milo eating and no sign of Carly. He’s worried until she shows up. He tells her she and Joss should move into the hotel. However, Carly doesn’t want to draw Franco to her hotel. She tells Shawn to move in with her.
Dante tells Ronnie not to treat his mother like a suspect and she has nothing to hide, but Ronnie feels Sonny would be willing to cover for Olivia. If Dante’s back on the case all eyes will be on him. Delores shows up and Ronnie says she’s Dante’s new partner.
Robin’s looking at some of her test results. She asks Monica if she got her message about the board meeting. Monica says she just came from one, about Robin.
Spinelli finds JaSam in the alley. Jason asks him to find out what the last part of the tag means. Spinelli says it’s ancient in origin and means something from a creator and wonders if Franco created something while on their honeymoon.

Dante just makes me want to throw up. And it makes me sick that I have to side with Ronnie but once again Dante is not doing his job properly and is asking to be on the case just to clear Mommy and pin this thing on Johnny (Dante must really be jealous of Johnny for ALWAYS wanting to prove him guilty of whatever crime is available when he is ALWAYS giving a free pass to Daddy who is much more dangerous and much more insane than Johnny is). Why would Dante care that the people on the boat had much more motive than Johnny? Johnny was on a boat so it has to be Johnny! Stop the investigation, Dante has found the culprit and Dante's Daddy will be more than happy to do the sentencing: DEATH! Dante is truly Sonny's son...
Also very much disappointed in Mac for leaving Dante The Douche taking over this case (be prepared Lulu, his promise of working behind a desk would have last less than a day... Go grab a bottle already). Hope Johnny will smash Dante's face on a wall one of these days (BTW Dante if Johnny had not kept your secret about being an undercover cop for your mother's sake endangering himself in the process, where would you be now? Ungrateful bastard!).
Liking Monica less and less these days. First Liz now Robin. Enough already.
The "I am gonna KILLLLLLL Franco" storyline is beyond ridiculous. Basketor and his FOS also. Shawn irritates me more and more everyday with his patronizing tone (he should start a competition with Dante) and I don't see any chemistry at all with Carly.
Kate and Sonny. Unwatchable. And please Kate , don't go back to be Connie Falconeri we have already too much Falconeri on screen, I certainly don't need a third one
Sorry but I am not interested in this Wyndermere storyline involving 2 newbies even if one of them seems to have an awesome body (still love my Johnny better though
).
The best of today were the Alexis/Molly andAlexis/Mac as well as Johnny and Delores (not for Delores just for the sexiness show of Johnny!) and the Johnny/Anthony scenes (how can BB keep his serious when BW put the bra on his head? As I am SURE that it was a pure BW addendum? Congrats to BB anyway!). Oops, almost forgot that the hairdo of NuMaxie was really beautiful today...
One last detail. I know PC is having A LOT of trouble with time lately but to ask for the clothes of the suspects ONE MONTH after the crime?????? On what planet? And to expect that people won't wash them or send them to dry-cleaning? Are the PCPD living in such a dump that they are expecting such a repulsive hygiene?
Cannot finish without saying how happy I am that FV and RC are taking over. I have no doubt that the GH patient is condemned but FV and RC have proven with the last year of OLTL that they can deliver strong women / romance / family / balance / vet usage in such a way that makes me hopeful even if it is only for a few months... The OLTL Thanksgiving episode was just phenomenal when the GH one was beyond pathetic and horrible. Just annoyed that they won't start before January which means 2 more months of swallowing JASAM-Franco / Cash / horrible Skate / beyond horrible Lante / boring to death Stevia... Shoot me already!

So Carly remembered she had a hotel to run? And the day after finding out her daughter is being "targeted" once again by Franco and she threw that hissy fit in her living room about Shawn not telling her everything and then made Jason promise to protect Joss and gosh darn with everyone else??? She has barely worked since she got her wish and Jax was written off the canvas, and now she chooses to go back? Yeah (snickers), definate mother of the year material there.
I don't understand Alexis hesitating to defend Robin and Maxie.... both girls have been part of holidays meals with her and have been in cahoots with her own daughters in trying to get her and Mac together. She should know neither of them would ever willingly kill someone, and yet Sonny is more important as a client? I don't get it. I think Alexis ought to have seen Sam by now and realized something is wrong with her.
I continue to love it when Sam raises her voice/yells at Jason. It's the only thing he understands lately anyway.
The Wyndemere stuff is reminding me of the Brenda in Rome stuff.... it went on for weeks and made no sense and added nothing of value to the canvas.
Monica ought to remember all the negative publicity she's brought to the hospital herself over the years.
I don't know what's up with Matt.... he's quite boring and doesn't seem the type that could be bothered to get up off his booze riddled butt to kill someone, but apparently we're supposed to be suspicious of what he's doing.

Nickskelton, I totally agree that Dante is being a tool, in terms of telling Lulu one thing and doing another. Especially since he saw how upset she's been about the whole thing.
But I don't think he's gunning for Johnny in this LIsa mess. If anything, for once, he's doing his job. They got evidence that Johnny was there. Johnny and LIsa had a thing. Johnny is a mob killer like his father and Sonny. It's not illogical to think that JOhnny had something to do with Lisa's murder. Dante didn't manufacture Johnny's involvement, Johnny was involved.
Yes, Dante shouldn't be investigating anything especially something that involves his mother, but MAc's on the case as well and 4 of the 6 suspects can be linked back to him (step daugher, niece, nephew in law, step daughter's boyfriend.) It's only natural and normal for him to want to protect his mother.
He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Poeple complain when he doesn't follow the law with Sonny, but they also complain when he follows the law with others, like JOhnny. Can't have it both ways.

Forgot to add, why the heck hasn't Patrick told Mac that Anthony was the one to wake up Lisa? Take the heat off himself, his wife, his brother, his cousin in law, all with one pointing of the finger.

And again I have to ask what is the big deal about finding out who killed psycho Lisa when no one can be bothered with finding out who killed Siobhan? Lisa was a psycho killer. Who cares who finally got rid of her? I still believe Anthony killed both women and if they'd spend even a second of time looking for Siobhan's killer, they'd find the killer of both women! But who am I kidding. The PCPD doesn't solve crimes. I can't think of one they've solved in years!!!

Sassys, for me it has to do with the writers wanting their cake and eating it too. Anthony is a great criminal. He has no conscience and is a wee bit wackadoo. So they can have him commit whatever crime needs to be commited and watchers won't bat an eye. But at the same time, everyone seems to love Bruce Weitz and don't want to lose him on the canvas, so Anthony gets away with everything he does, which is beyond ridiculous and makes everyone else on screen look like a bunch of idiots for allowing it.
In the past two months, Anthony has drugged a police officer, killed a police officer's wife, shot a police officer in the back and brought a crazy woman out of a coma. The drug story and Siobhan's murder seems to have been swept under the rug. Police are completely inept at finding who shot Dante and Sonny/Michael/Shawn look like doorknobs for hiding evidence that could point to the shooter. And Patrick, knows the truth, but uses that knowledge only to antagonize Anthony further.
It's such bad writing.

He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Poeple complain when he doesn't follow the law with Sonny, but they also complain when he follows the law with others, like JOhnny. Can't have it both ways.
Perkie, I apologize but I totally disagree with what you just wrote in the quote above. Like Nickskelton I also had the feeling that, AS ALWAYS, Dante just wants Johnny to be guilty. As when Sonny framed Johnny with the Lopez brothers and Dante was so sure that Johnny did it (because Johnny HAD to have done it of course!) that he didn't even want to question other people as Johnny asked him at the PCPD. Or when he was so horrible with Johnny accusing him without any proof of being the reason Kristina almost died because he refused to considered that his beloved innocent daddy could have something to do with it. Dante always manages to put Johnny at the top of the suspect list (I agree with Nickskelton, he must feel threatened in a way to be so obsessive about it). But when Sonny almost kill Johnny in Johnny's own penthouse with his own mother as a witness, he couldn't care less and it is "go to the PCPD". Interesting that Dante wants to be in and EACH AND EVERY investigation EXCEPT when it is one that could bring Sonny to jail. Rotten Cop to the core...
I would have no problem if Dante was doing "his job". I doesn't agree with Mac being involved either but at least Mac is examining Robin and Maxie as suspects and not trying to put their responsabilities under the carpet like Dante does. Yes, the PCPD should question Johnny. But Delores already did. And the way Dante jumped in was clearly showed as a way to deflect the doubt from his mom. NOT PROFESSIONAL AT ALL. AS USUAL.
So no he is not damned if he does or damned if he doesn't. Because he never "does" behave like a good professional cop. If you trust Dante I have no doubt that whoever killed Lisa, Johnny will end up in jail as Dante did with the Lopez brother murder. Sorry if some of us have memories of all the wrong things Dante did as a cop! And by the way, he should not even allowed to wear a badge (Lucky had the decency to resign even though he has a much better track record than Dante!!!)!
I like the new girl Delores because she seems to be a GOOD cop on the contrary of Dante (good luck Delores to be paired with such a chauvinistic douche). So please don't have her sleep with Johnny. Let's have at least ONE honest cop at the PCPD. Pair her with Dante it would kill 2 birds with the same stone: it would be the end of the horrible Lante and perhaps Delores could teach Dante what being an honest cop means? One can always dream?
Sassy, I don't remember Siobhan's death being officially rule as a "murder"? Lucky knows it was but I think that he had already resigned at the time and I kind of remember Dante being aware of it (not sure) but it was at the time Dante and Lucky were doing their own "fake police" thing together and knowing Dante, he probably doesn't care (remember Lupe, didn't seem to be bothered that much about being responsible of her death!) and has not opened an official investigation about Siobhan's death.
I hope that RC will be able to make some sense in all this mess. I hear that MB could be leaving which would be just awesome... No more Sonny? OMG...So good! If Sonny can take NuKate, Dante, Michael et Olivia, that would be just phenomenal. No more Corinthos or Falconeri virusing my screen? Just a dream come true!

Vicki Dummer will take over duties through a new integrated division called Times Square Studios. (hollywood reporter)
After steering ABC through the cancellation of long running daytime soaps All My Children andOne Life to Live, ABC daytime president Brian Frons is leaving the company. He’ll be replaced by Vicki Dummer, senior vp of current series and specials.
Dummer will preside over a new integrated current entertainment and programming division called Times Square Studios. That division will focus on non-scripted lifestyle and health programming for daytime and syndication. The View, General Hospital, The Chew, The Revolution, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and Katie Couric’s upcoming talk show will come under that umbrella.Live! with Kelly will remain part of the ABC Owned Television Stations Group division.
Frons will stay on to assist with the transition and depart at the end of his contract in January 2012. remains part of the ABC Owned Television Stations Group division.
Frons made the decision to depart, say ABC sources, though it’s unclear where he’ll go next. He was on the receiving end of much of the ire of soap fans who inundated him with thousands of protest emails. They also launched web sites and even picketed the network’s upfront presentation in New York last May.
The move comes at a busy time for ABC daytime which this year launched the daytime lifestyle and cooking show The Chew and in January is set to bow a second lifestyle transformation show called The Revolution and featuring a panel of experts including Project Runway’s Tim Gunn, Home Edition’s Ty Pennington, Harley Pasternak, Dr. Jennifer Ashton and Dr. Tiffanie Davis Henry.

Maybe he does, but I think it's more that he wants someoen other than his mother to shoulder the blame, and I can't blame him for that. He's trying to protect his mother, and I can understand that.
My point though, was that he's not going after Johnny without cause. He didn't show up at the penthouse and accuse JOhnny of killing LIsa (as he's want to do). He had paperwork that said a witness saw Johnny on the water. So he's pointing out that Johnny could be a suspect. And he's not out in left field. Many of us think Johnny possibly did it, although I fluctuate back and forth between JOhnny and Anthony as the possible doer.

As I mentioned in my post, I have no problem with Johnny being questioned and looked at as a suspect. I just have a problem with Dante jumping on it like a famished dog on a bone even though Patrick, Steve, Matt, Robin or Maxie had ten times more motives than Johnny. Who everybody would have suspected to try to SAVE Lisa instead of killing her. But why would Dante care? And what about saying AGAIN that Johnny is not "sane"? Johnny looks perfectly sane to me. Much more than Sonny but it is weird, I never hear Dante questioning Sonny's sanity. Biased much?
But Perkie I am sure you will be proven right and Johnny will end up the killer. I am sure that as Johnny and BB stars are currently shining more than Dante/DZ (in polls, in mail counts, on the web), TPTB will do something to make Dante the hero as it is for sure their pet so I bet you are right and Johnny will end having killed Lisa which is totally stupid as he was the only one to have pity of her and it would have been as killing Claudia a second time so totally OOC.
But I bet who cares as long as Dante comes on top in the end... And some wonders why the show is tanking?
BTW, trying to protect his mom when you are a cop the way Dante is doing it is not "understandable" for me.
Either Dante is 100% sure that his mom didn't do it and what is it to be afraid of in this case and why is he trying to prevent her mom from being questioned ? He should trust the PCPD no?
Or Dante thinks she can have done it which would explain why he seems already likely to cover it up which would make it only the third time that Dante would be covering up a crime after all... Third time is a charm no?

Sadly I have to agree with you. Very bad writing indeed!!!
It was officially ruled a murder and for a split second Mac, Dante and Ronnie were investigating it and then nothing. Dante didn't want to look too closely because it might lead to Elizabeth, even though we know (and he should have known) that she didn't kill Siobhan. And Lucky was busy being drugged and recovering to bother. But Ronnie and Mac should have continued to investigate! It's just one more story that got dropped without explanation and I'm sick of it!!!
With as many crimes as Anthony has committed recently (as Perkie pointed out) it's about time that Anthony paid for his crimes!!!

If I'm putting myself in the writers's minds (very scary place!!) and if I had the attention span of a gnat, then I would say, the viewers know who killed Siobhan, because we saw it happen, so they don't need the PCPD to clear it. (i'm channeling the show runners here, not my own thoughts on the matter!)
However, we don't know yet who killed Lisa, so it will be a fun who dunnit caper (and by 'fun' I mean mind numbingly non sensical drivel that goes on longer than Siobhan's entire run on the show and leaves us no longer caring who did it, not that we care now, since Lisa should have been dead a year ago)
At this point I'm thinking it was either LIW (Lady In White) or Chesty (the guy with the open shirt). Makes as much sense as whatever they're going to come up with, which will likely be Robin because she's dying.
