Valentine's Day is finally over. Hurrah!
Sonny's ready to go out but Diane drops by. He wants to see Dante but Diane wants to talk about their case. Why, Diane? You know how stubborn he is.
Dante starts to get out of bed. Rayner comes in, thinking Dante's trying to undermine his own recovery to get out of testifying against Sonny.
The Haunted Star Valentine's party that we read about in the crumpled flier was apparently a hit according to Luke although we never got to see it. Tracy drops the bomb: Elizabeth is pregnant.
Speaking of Crazy Gal, she informs Lucky that she feels much better. Outside, Steven tells Nikolas that the room is ready at Shadybrook and asks if he's told Elizabeth yet. Shouldn't he tell her as her doctor and brother? Liz can't wait to get home. I just can't wait for the new credits.
Credits: 6 Days and counting.
Robin and Patrick argue about stupid things. Their Valentine's day didn't go very well.
Liz thinks it's all going to be OK. Lucky remains silent. Outside, Nikolas reassures Steven and himself. He softens the blow by calling her a wonderful mother. Sure. Finally he tells her about Shadybrook.
Traci tells Luke about the church and the hypothermia and the pregnant and the questionable paternity and the suicide attempt. Luke's kinda flabbergasted.
Sonny calls Diane a pain in the ass which she doesn't seem to mind. They bring up the same old arguments, for and against, and it's really all futile because we know who is going to win. And Diane makes great arguments because she's a lawyer but Sonny is so idiotic and stubborn that he can't wrap his mind around it. He thinks everything is going to be all right because the writers will write it that way.
Dante informs Rayner about his new job. Rayner is worried that Dante is going to continue to cover for his father. Dante seems to sincerely believe that it was his fault that he got shot. Rayner warns him one more time about lying on the witness stand as Olivia walks in. Olivia cuts him off threatening a lawsuit. Which? Shut up, Olivia.
Agent Rayner brings up the blackmail and Olivia brings up the lying and really? Pot, meet kettle. She threatens him again. And he informs Olivia that she'll be a witness. He warns her to tell the truth on the stand. Dante tells Rayner to back off Olivia or he'll "develop sentimental amnesia."
Hospital: Lisa's in a good mood. Patrick and Robin are in a pissy mood. They argue some more about stupid things as Lisa listens. Lisa brags that she had a good Valentine's day. Patrick thinks it's because she got laid.
Liz begs Lucky not to make her go and outside the room Nikolas and Steven talk about who should have told Elizabeth. Too late now... Steven thinks it's important that Elizabeth doesn't always see Lucky as her savior. Lucky convinces Elizabeth that committing herself is the best thing. Laura's chair is waiting, Elizabeth.
Lulu visits Dante. She's been working all morning for Kate. She jokes about how she almost killed him yesterday. He tells her about Rayner and court.
Steven talks to Robin about Elizabeth; about the hypothermia and the crazy and the pregnancy and the Shadybrook. Robin gets distracted by...
Lisa and Patrick chatting about some car race that Lisa went to. Patrick thinks Lisa slept with one of the drivers. Robin takes Elizabeth's recent crazy as an excuse to pull Patrick away.
Luke gets a visit from Sonny. Luke: "Kids, huh?" Sonny wants to know how Luke finally connected with Ethan. Luke: "Well I didn't shoot him in the chest, for one thing." HEE! Awesome, Luke. Awesome. He apologizes for his awesome joke. Why? Luke tells Sonny about Liz and the case of the two potential daddies. Sonny: "That's horrible." Really, Sonny? More horrible than shooting your own son in the chest?
Lucky tries to convince Liz to go to Shadybrook but Liz just wants to go home and ignore her kids. Lucky said that rehab worked for him...but Liz reminds him that he's still drinking. He says he's going to a meeting and if it doesn't work, he'll check himself into rehab as well. Liz rightly argues that rehab is different then being in the mental ward. She begs him not to make her go. Nikolas comes in. He too tries to convince her. Lucky says that the boys will be taken care of by him and Audrey. She finally agrees but makes it clear she is just doing it for her kids.
Sonny knows something about being mentally ill. His words. Sonny gives a PSA about bi-polar disorder. The more you know!
Robin comes in with Liz's clothes. Nik and Lucky leave them alone. Robin and Liz discuss Robin's struggle with the crazy last year. She gives Liz a little pep talk.
Lulu is on the phone with Maxie convincing her to cover a little while longer. Dante tells Lulu that he knows she has a life and doesn't expect her to be with him 24/7. Lulu likes caring and worrying about him. They make out and are interrupted by Michael. He says he's glad that Dante's ok and isn't just saying that because he wants a favor. Except he does.
Lulu, who by the way looks great in a silky cheetah-skin like dress, excuses herself but Michael says she can stay since Dante doesn't keep secrets from her and she knew he was undercover trying to bring Sonny down for months. Michael: "I thought you liked my dad". Lulu slyly avoids the question/accusation telling Michael that it must be hard for him. Michael defends Sonny that he makes mistakes and sometimes does the wrong things but for the right reasons. Geez, this kid is brainwashed. He tells Dante he's made mistakes as well. He talks about the night Claudia was murdered which makes Dante a bit suspicious. After Michael leaves, Dante tells Lulu about Michael confessing.
Olivia is at Sonny's meeting with Diane. She just wants Olivia to just tell the truth. Olivia says she will but then gives a fake version of the truth. Diane thinks her story is ridiculous. Sonny comes in and wonders what Olivia is doing there. Diane frustratedly leaves. Olivia wants to leave too but Sonny stops her. He needs help. ...with their son.
At the Drake/Scorpio household, Robin apologizes for being snarky. Patrick, too apologizes which leads them to the bedroom.
Steven escorts Liz to her room at Shadybrook. It looks remarkably like Laura's room complete with rocking chair. Steven encourages her that it's the right thing. She's convinced that her baby is Nikolas'.
Haunted Star office. Lucky visit's his dad. They talk about Elizabeth. He feels guilty about the nasty things he's said to Elizabeth. He wants to know why he still cares about her.
Sonny tries to guilt Olivia about keeping the secret but Olivia says she'd do it again. She doesn't want to intercede between Sonny and Dante.
Morgan visits Dante. Morgan is upset that his mom and Jax are splitting up. He's also upset about his dad going to jail. He wants Dante to help stop him Sonny from going to prison.
Luke tells Lucky to take things one day at a time and to not worry about what do to about Elizabeth until after she gets well.
Liz talks to her unborn child. Helena comes in and congratulates her for being a slut! Helena thinks it's great that she committed herself to Shadybrook and that she's carrying the Cassadine heir.

February 16 2010
It's snowing again. Who wants to make a bet the show will be interrupted?
We begin with a special weather report. *sigh*
We miss most of the teaser and cut to Dr. Lee telling Elizabeth she's three months pregnant. Nikolas looks surprised. Lucky doesn't.
Credits
Elizabeth gets pissy with Dr. Lee but she handles it like a good doctor. Nikolas asks for a paternity test. Dr. Lee: We'll know by May sweeps. Lucky and Nikolas try to comfort her but she just wants to go to sleep.
Longest. Valentines Day. Ever. Jason and Sam feed each other chocolates and drink champagne. And eww...Molly and Kristina are watching. They claim they got trapped there when Sam and Jason came in.
Apparently in the teaser, Carly called Jax a playboy and he's insulted because unlike her, he never cheated in their marriage. He doesn't want to fight about who's the biggest slut; he just wants her to know that Josselyn will be staying with him. He seems to really want to make Carly mad because he brings up Carly leaving Michael with Jason when he was a baby.
And again, apparently in the teaser, Steven caught Dante and Lulu in bed together because he's reprimanding Dante now about it. Oh and mom and dad are there, too. Steven somewhat-jokes with Lulu that if she so much as kisses Dante again, she'll be banned from the ICU. Dante tells Olivia to get out and take Sonny with him.
Mac stops by Alexis' house with a present! He wants to be spontaneous. Aww. Alexis lets him in. They ramble about work and then he gives her the present and they both share in chocolatey goodness and even flirt a bit. I want to like these two together. Alexis deserves a good guy but I feel like GH is just throwing these two together because they're both old fuddy-duddys passed their prime. And they're not. They're a little older but they're both still sexy and vibrant and could stand to have passion in their lives. And these two just don't spark passion together. Plus with the amount of airtime these two generally get lately, a couple-hood will just throw them further into the wings.
Kristina and Molly flounce until Sam excuses them. Before she leaves, Molly tries to give Jason a 101 tutorial in romance and reveals that Milo helped by getting the champagne. It's about time Milo got some romance. I think Michael's available.
Carly is hurt and pissed that Jax would sink so low as the hurt her with something that was beyond her control just for the sake of hurting her. Jax apologizes but he's hurt because he knows their over.
Dante doesn't just want them to leave his room but leave the hospital. He goes on about how Sonny is using Olivia to get to him. Finally Lulu cuts everyone off and tells the Brooklyn Royalty that they need to back off.
Molly and Kristina come home with Jason and Sam to find Alexis and Mac making out. Alexis pathetically rambles that she was just thanking Mac for bringing her cookies. Molly and Kristina are thrilled, usher Sam and Jason out and then leave Alexis and Mac to continue "snogging", as Molly puts it. Hmm, my Mac doesn't recognize the word snogging. I guess it's not Brit-friendly.
The evil parents are gone so Dante and Lulu can continue to flirt. She reassures him saying she doesn't think that Olivia would go back to Sonny after what he did but Dante isn't so sure. They get back to flirting and she leaves with the promise that she'll return tomorrow.
Carly reluctantly agrees to leave Josselyn with Jax for the night. Jax apologizes again for being a dick. Carly leaves telling Jax that she expects a phone call in the morning telling her when to pick up Josselyn.
Steven just found out his sister's at the hospital. Lucky and Nikolas fill him in. Steven chides Nikolas for not wearing protection. Lucky's all 'don't even go there'. He just wants to concentrate on Elizabeth getting well.
Steven warns Nik and Lucky about Elizabeth's emotional state before they enter her hospital room. But she's not there!
She's out on the roof, playing with the fake-ass snow.
Olivia comes back into Dante's room and tells him about her guilt and remorse. She can't stay apart from him anymore. She admits she was an idiot for not telling him the truth last year when he first came to town.
An exhausted Lulu comes home and looks around the gaudiness that is her apartment. Not two seconds later, there is a knock at the door. It's Sonny. He patronizes that her anger will pass but she's pretty clear as to who he is. She informs him that she'll never forgive him for what he did.
Lucky finds Crazy Gal on the roof. She turns to him and says she's sorry. I rewound like three times and it's kinda hard to tell, but she's sitting on the ledge.
Now, it's easier to see: She's definitely sitting on the ledge. She whines that she's made a mess of everything. Yep. Lucky tries to talk her down while Steven and Nikolas show up. Steven stops Nikolas from interfering. Lucky tells Liz that he's made mistakes too. He continues to talk her down slowly creeping towards her. She finally takes his hand.
Sam is happy about Alexis and Mac. She and Jason 'I love you' each other. Sam refers to Molly's 'list'. Next: Read Sam poetry.
Carly tells the boys about Jax. Morgan totally breaks my heart yelling that he hates all that's been going on. He thinks Jax 'quit' them. He can't quit you, Morgan! Kids been watching too much Brokeback Mountain. Damn that movie tears me up. Carly hugs her son telling him she hates all this too. Michael just stands there.
Olivia can't stand it when Dante is this mad at her. Dante throws Olivia a bone telling her he loves her which I think she needed to hear but says he just doesn't want to talk to her right now. He's pissed that she lied and he's pissed that she's allowing Sonny back into her heart. Olivia protests too much. She explains away her secret that she didn't want Dante to ever follow into Sonny's footsteps like Michael is now doing. She says she feels bad for Sonny and Dante is surprised.
Sonny wants Lulu to hear him out. No, Lulu - it's a trap! Don't fall into the dimples! Shut the door! She doesn't hear me and let's him in. He wants her help to get to know his son. She thinks he's delusional. Sonny thinks Dante lied about the shooting because they're blood. Lulu informs him that Dante is the newest detective in the PCPD.
Instead of poetry, Jason reads from "Firearms" magazine. This gets Sam hot.
Lucky visits Elizabeth in her room. He tells her that thinks will be OK in the morning and leaves. He meets up with Steven and Nikolas who tell her that they put a call in to Lainey. They think that Elizabeth needs to be in ShadyBrook for more intense treatment. Lucky agrees.
Jax monologues to Josselyn. He admits to her that he was bluffing about the talk of divorce and custody and thinks this is the only way to make Carly fight for him.
Carly pretty much admits the same thing to Morgan. Michael doesn't think this will work.
Olivia is about to leave when Sonny arrives. He tells Dante what he heard about his new job which surprises Olivia. Sonny wants to know if this means Dante will continue to hunt him. Dante, in short: Yep.

February 15 2010
Welcome back. Happy President's Day.
Jax is basically accusing Carly of being a whore and she's not exactly denying it. Sonny seems thrilled.
Mac tries to convince Dante to get Michael's testimony. Dante thinks they have enough evidence. They don't. Dante doesn't want to involve Michael. Thinking as Michael's brother and Sonny's son instead of a cop is exactly what Mac was worried about when he wants to hire Dante.
Lulu doesn't want the condoms Maxie is offering since Dante is recovering from surgery and a bullet wound. Maxie thinks there's more to it than that.
Crazybeth is in the church being revived by a panicked Lucky.
Credits
Lucky is on the phone with 911 telling them Liz's condition. He decides it would be faster to take her to the hospital.
Sam has been called in by Mac - Mac isn't there, but Jason is. A cop calls him out of the room because the interrogation room is not his second home despite popular belief.
Maxie thinks there are too many excuses as to why Lulu and Dante haven't done it. Maxie thinks Lulu has been burned too many times and that Lulu is afraid she'll lose Dante after they have slept together. Lulu turns the conversation over to Maxie and Spinelli saying Maxie is trying too hard. Maxie tricks Lulu into a hug, stuffing the condoms into her bag.
Dante just wants to go by the book to convict Sonny. Mac informs him about Michael's confession. Mac insists there's no personal vendetta. He just wants to to bring Sonny to Justice. But Justice is dead!
Carly: Blah blah blah, you lied. Jax: But Sonny's a bad mobster...blah blah blah. Sonny: I didn't know he was my son...blah blah blah. I hope an earthquake swallows these three up whole.
Sonny and Carly boringness.
Lulu has brought flowers to Dante. She opens her jacket to reveal a very sexy red dress. She instructs Dante to close his eyes so she can set up. She lights candles and it's all sweet. He tells her about still being a cop.
Diane has some poofy fucked up haircut as she enters the police station. She's wearing a long black coat and is pissed because she was pulled away from Max giving her a massage and lingerie which she reveals to Jason. Hee. He promises her triple pay so she walks into the interrogation room where Mac and Sam are. Doesn't Mac have plans with Alexis? I guess that ship has sailed. She lawyers her lawyer jargon and accidently flashes everyone. Awesome.
Dante is proud to reveal that he is now a member of the PCPD. Lulu is happy for him but surprised and a little worried. Dante gets into one of the bags and finds the glow in the dark condoms.
I'd like to just fast forward passed this Carly/Sonny scene but Sonny actually says something that made me spit out my Coke Zero. Sonny: "...If he thinks that you're back with me, then he's gone for good because basically there's no competition." Hee. That line of dialogue epitomizes Sonny completely. Sonny wants her to flatten Jax but thinks in the end, she'll do what she wants to do.
Olivia and Jax are at the metro court. She's telling him about some meaningless problem that the Metro Court is having this week. Just some excuse for them to have a scene together and so that Jax can sulk and Olivia can pry. He tells her everything. Olivia doesn't believe it.
Nikolas sees Matt and Lucky bringing Elizabeth in. Lucky tells Nik that she might have hypothermia and Nikolas turns around and blames Lucky.
Sam is titillated by Diane. She and Jason talk about how they think Diane and Max make a good couple. Outside, Diane thinks Mac is taking it all out on everyone because he doesn't have a valentine. She wants to know if he's tried calling Alexis. I told you: that ship, hopefully, has passed.
Spinelli shows up at chez Maxie with lovely roses. Maxie is dressed in a...I really don't get this...the whole 'alien sex goddess' thing. I don't know if it's the same outfit that Robin wore because I blocked that out of my head. And if it is...eww. You don't share sex outfits. Spinelli is a bit weirded out and I just want to get to the next scene.
Lulu is trying to wrestle the glow-in-the-dark condoms out of Dante's hands. He teases her and it's cute. She explains that Maxie must have put them in the bag. Dante's just horny.
Maxie tries to explain away the Franco stuff again but he's just awed. They make up, move on and make out. Then they shoot each other with ray guns...and....please cut to the next scene.
Jax is on the phone with a lawyer's voicemail about divorce and custody options. Carly comes in pissed that Jax took Josselyn.
Nikolas thinks the way Lucky is treating Elizabeth is cruel. Lucky makes great points about Liz being a liar. Nikolas wants to know where all the compassion went. Dude. That pisses me off. Being a good person and having compassion doesn't mean you have to forgive everyone that betrays you over and over again. Why should Lucky be a doormat that everyone walks all over? It's a shame that Lucky has become so bitter but that's the fault of everyone who made him that way and assumed that he would just shrug it off. Nik assholedly brings up the drinking. He thinks that Lucky is the only one who can help.
He goes to see Liz who is in a hospital room sleeping. Because she's asleep, he gets to do a monologue! He's hurt, betrayed...etc... something inside him is broken. She slowly wakes up.
Sonny is at the hospital asking Olivia about Dante. Olivia tells him the doctors say he's OK. They talk about boring stuff.
Lulu and Dante kiss after she feeds him. Hmmm. He pulls her in closer and she gets on top of him. They both laugh because his heart monitor just got a lot faster.
Carly wants to talk. He again accuses her of sleeping with Sonny and she defends herself that she didn't. He says it doesnt matter and that they should just cut their losses and move on.
Jason and Sam come home to their apartment decorated all valentine's-y. Jason says he gave Kristina and Molly money to decorate. It's very pink.
Elizabeth doesn't know why she's in the hospital. She remembers going to the church. Doctor Lee comes in with Nikolas. Doctor Lee, the baby-doctor. Surprise, surprise: Elizabeth is pregnant.
Jax is basically accusing Carly of being a whore and she's not exactly denying it. Sonny seems thrilled.
Mac tries to convince Dante to get Michael's testimony. Dante thinks they have enough evidence. They don't. Dante doesn't want to involve Michael. Thinking as Michael's brother and Sonny's son instead of a cop is exactly what Mac was worried about when he wants to hire Dante.

February 12 2010
This recap is getting a bit of a late start because I came home to find my ceiling collapsed. Yes, that's right. I lost my job, I have no valentine, I cancelled my trip to Australia this morning and there is a giant hole on the top of my hallway closet. My life is like a country song. And yet, I'm still here: recapping General Hospital just for you.
Lucky and Ethan are drinking at Jake's. That sounds like a good idea right now. Ethan is trying to comfort Lucky. Lucky is as bitter as I am.
Crazy Gal goes to the church where she and Lucky were married. I bet there's a flashback. In 5...4..3...2...And there it is! She flashbacks to L&L at the Spencer house where Lucky is being his awesome self.
Jason's pad: Molly and Morgan tell Jason and Sam about what happened between them and Michael at Kelly's. There's a lot of names in that sentence right there.
Michael explains to Mac what happened the night of Claudia's murder. Mac stops him to make sure he knows what he's doing.
Credits
It's snowing outside Dante's hotel room. They flirt and talk about Valentine's and Dante is upset about being fired. Get over it, Dante. They discuss Reyner's douchebaggery. Lulu wants him to fight for his job.
Morgan wants Jason to stop them but he doesn't want to just show up at the PCPD to arouse suspicion. Luckily, Sam has parking tickets just for this occasion. I guess she sold her hooker boots on ebay. She runs off to rescue Michael. Molly wants to know why they didn't just go to the police in the first place. Poor, sweet, naive, annoying Molly.
Sonny's plan is to say he did everything that Michael did. Diane and Carly don't think it's going to work. The arguement gets pretty heated.
Michael continues his story despite Mac's warning. Mac thinks he's faking it.
Lucky wonders if Ethan has ever fallen in love. Ethan says he has but I don't think we're meant to believe him. Lucky gets all philosophical and then tells Ethan about the time he 'died'. They talk about how crazy Helena is but neither of them know she's in town.
Elizabeth talks to God. She flashbacks again to Lucky asking Elizabeth to "be [his] girl". Is this flashback from 1954?
Sam shows up to the PCPD to pay her ticket. She makes an excuse to go to the ladies room so she can see Michael in the interrogation room.
Mac tells Michael that there is evidence that Sonny was in the cabin but Michael insists that he did it. Sam busts in to save the day but it's not needed. Mac kicks both of them out. Sam lies to the cop that she forgot her check book and can't pay the ticket and Mac finds out the fake reason why she was there.
Helena either doesn't get Nik's sarcasm or just ignores it because she has better things to talk about. She wants an heir and Spencer won't do. They talk about Emily, Helena calling her a 'twit' and saying "but she's dead now" in that wonderful deadpan delivery she has. Nikolas doesn't want any more kids. He barely sees the one he has.
Ethan brings up Liz's marriage to Ric Lansing. Lucky lists off all the "dark and deeply troubled" guys that Elizabeth has been with: Ric, Nikolas and Jason. And of course, Zander, who died in a police shoot-out. He's the one who got off lucky.
Crazy girl flashbacks some more about the good times. Gosh, they were so young!
Lulu is reading Smarm magazine. Smarm?? Dante wakes up; he wants to know where Lulu went before. She jokes that maybe she was setting up a hot Valentine's date. Jax stops by because Lulu wants him to help Dante get his job back.
Diane tells Sonny he has until the trial to change his mind and after reprimanding him, leaves. Sonny tells Carly that Diane is just making it seem harder than it really is. Carly isn't buying it.
Jason leaves a message for Diane. Molly and Morgan come in with junk food and Sam comes home with Michael. Jason is frustrated. Michael is frustrated. Everyone is frustrated. Jason just wants Michael and everyone to shut their mouths.
Helena reasons that she doesn't want Spencer to suffer the burden of his heritage. Hee. Nikolas argues that he doesn't want to raise another son just so he can play favorites.
Ethan wants to know why Lucky isn't angrier with Nikolas. They joke about the possibility of a duel. Lucky says Elizabeth keeps finding guys she can't resist sleeping with. Ethan wonders if it's easier to blame Elizabeth but Lucky makes it clear that he hates both of them.
Dante informs Jax that Rayner knows he was lying about his statement. Dante doesn't want Jax's help. I think he does but he's too ashamed to accept it since his statement will make it harder to get Sonny in jail and that, after all, is what Jax wants most. Lulu feels for Jax and doesn't know why Carly keeps defending Sonny. Neither does Jax. Neither does most of the audience.
Jax leaves telling Dante to call him if he changes his mind. Lulu leaves to do something Valentine's related.
Carly and Sonny argue about the trial. She tries to convince him that there's too much evidence against him.
Lucky and Ethan are playing pool. Lucky bitterly watches a kissing couple. Ethan brings up the flyer and his knowledge of Elizabeth's rape. Lucky talks about how he found Elizabeth's that day. Ethan gets all psychologist wondering if Elizabeth has a fear of disappointing Lucky but Lucky says that maybe he loved the memory of Elizabeth more than Elizabeth herself. At least that's what I got out of it.
Mopey Crazy Gal is still at the church.
Lulu comes home to find her apartment decorated with V-day decorations. Maxie almost comes out naked before she realizes it's Lulu. Lulu thinks she may be over-compensating.
Mac comes to visit Dante. He knows about the firing and thinks Sonny will try to get rid of Dante. And then? Mac offers Dante a job. Yeah!
Sam asks Molly to keep Michael's crime a secret. Molly gets it. Jason sounds like a message boarder saying that so many people know that Michael killed Claudia that he wouldn't be surprised if the cops found out too. Hee. It's like he's outside the TV, looking in and realizing how ridiculous it all is! He makes them swear to keep the secret. Molly and Morgan do. Michael? Cut to a new scene.
Carly and Sonny argue some more. It's boring. Nothing new comes out.
Maxie and Lulu plan their respective holiday evenings. Maxie offers her some condoms.
Mac wants Dante's word that he won't compromise his job or himself by protecting Sonny. Dante agrees. Mac has a first assignment for Dante. He wants Dante to get sufficient evidence to subpoena Michael because he thinks Michael was a witness.
Carly wants Sonny to leave the country. She wants him to swear that when she says it's time, he'll go. He finally agrees and hugs her. Jax walks in at that exact moment and is pissed. He thinks she's throwing herself at Sonny to get back at him. Not quite - but close.
Lucky walks in the church (why?) and sees Crazy Elizabeth unconscious on a pew. He tries to wake her up. I hope this doesn't lead to him becoming Mr. Hero man, again..

February 11 2010
So I got laid off today. I was sad for a few minutes and then I got over it. It kinda sucks but I know I'll find another job. Maybe I'll actually like this one. Or maybe someone will see my blog and love it so much that they'll pay me for it. Or maybe someone from the ABC writing staff will get me a job writing for General Hospital. Or maybe a producer will see me and want me to act on General Hospital. One can dream, right? :-)
But this blog isn't about me; It's about General Hospital. So let's see what those crazy denizens of Port Charles are up to, shall we?
We start at Wyndemere with Nikolas calling his grandmother predictable. It's been valentine's day since yesterday and will probably be until next week. He thinks she's there on purpose because of Nikolas' current predicament. But she's there to celebrate.
Jason comforts Elizabeth in his arms outside of Kelly's. She rants about being a bad person but Jason says she's just going through a bad time. Lucky walks by and is all, "You gotta love the timing." My sentiments exactly, Lucky.
The Zacchara boys are in the prison visiting room. It's a private room that we've seen before. The lights are dim for some reason and I think it's just because it's pretty much the same set as the PCPD interrogation room. Cause seriously, why so dark? Is there an electricity shortage in this prison? Anthony appreciates the irony of Johnny's decision to take over the business. It's like a black fly in your Chardonnay. He rambles on about how there are no roses in prison and what? Exactly. Elizabeth will be joining you momentarily. If you want roses, Anthony, I'm sure there are plenty of tattooed ones on your fellow prisoners. Just visit the showers during peak time. Johnny infers from this that Anthony doesn't want him to take over anymore. Anthony just thinks it may be too late.
Dante's hospital room: Dante wakes up to see Sonny. He wants Sonny to leave but Sonny wants to tell him how he became a mobster. And here come the violins.
Credits
Sonny rehashes his story about how he grew up. All about Mike's gambling, Trevor Lansing and Ric. He tells Dante about Deke, the cop step-dad who beat him. He flashbacks to Deke who is played by an awful actor uttering the worst cliched abusive step-dad lingo while Sonny narrates.
Johnny wants to run the old territory and take over the Corinthos organization and humiliate Sonny because of Claudia. Lofty goals, Johnny. Anthony talks trash about Claudia because he hates all women. Anthony says he'll back Johnny 100 per cent. Johnny thinks Sonny could run the organization from prison but he wants to make sure that doesn't happen. They both agree that this is going to be a difficult. uphill battle but Johnny is confident that he can do it.
Helena waxes on about how being a Cassadine is special and noble and that the Spencers are merely peasants who don't know what that's like. Maybe Helena can adopt me and leave me her fortune. She praises his power, ambition and ruthlessness. She wants him to embrace in what he is. Nikolas snarks that she'll show him the way.
Lucky gets in some digs about Liz being "quite the rebound girl" and goes on for a bit when Jason cuts hiim off and tells him that's uncalled for. Lucky speaks directly to Jason about what a horrible person Liz is. Liz finally realizes how hurt Lucky is but has never known him to be so cruel. She walks off. Jason thinks she's right and is worried that the "Lucky [he] knows" is disappearing.
Robin wants to schedule the sex but Patrick drags her into the supply closet. Lisa sees them go in and gets an evil smile. Robin and Patrick make-out.
Jason is chiding Lucky saying that it's not like him to disrespect women. Lucky thinks it's ironic that Jason is lecturing him on morals. Jason says he's done things he's not proud of and he has to take responsibility for it. When? No, seriously when? He warns Lucky not to fall into that trap. Lucky remembers the way Jason was after his accident: the blank slate with no emotion. He thinks Jason should have stayed that way. He wants to feel that way.
Diane thought she was going to see Sonny but it was Carly who called her over. Diane says she can't talk about Sonny's case but Carly talks about it anyway. Carly says she wants to take care of things. Because Carly is Sonny's wife. Oh wait. No she isn't. She explains why she wants to help. Diane gets it, but I really don't. Sonny has his wife Jason for that. Diane lists the myriad reasons why she helps Sonny which includes meeting Max. I'm disappointed that an intelligent woman such as Diane misused the word 'myriad' adding the word 'of' before it. Wikipedia, however, tells me that both uses are correct. So, I am very sorry, Diane. Diane thinks Sonny should get out of the country.
Sonny goes on about his rotten childhood. Maybe Sonny can get me a job as an enforcer. He talks about the Cerillos and Olivia. He talks about Olivia's hatred of the business he was pursuing resulting in their break-up. He says she went away and came back pregnant but never thought that the child could be his. The only reason he knows now is because Port Charles is the magical city where secrets come out.
Elizabeth brings her kids home. The doorbell rings shortly after and Cameron runs to the door hoping it's Daddy. Which Daddy? Zander, you're real daddy, is dead. Ric was married to your mom for a while...but he's gone. I guess he means Lucky. But no! It's Helena! She's there to thank Elizabeth!
Jason arrives home and he's in a mood! Sam is also in a mood because Maxie has been there for a half hour talking about a sauna. I don't know where this sauna is going. Does Jason really have that much space? Anyway, Sam's problems don't matter so Jason talks about his interaction with Liz and Lucky. He's scared for Lucky because Lucky's been completely cold and he blames himself for part of it.
Morgan and Molly are at Kelly's looking at some website deducing that Sonny is going to go to prison for a long time. No, he won't. Hey, maybe I can get a job at Kelly's. They're worried about Michael too. Molly talks like a little lawyer when Michael walks in. Morgan lies that Molly is helping him with his homework but when Michael pushes, Morgan reveals that they're discussing the case. Michael thinks it's unfair that Sonny is taking the rap for what he did. What kills me about this scene is that they're trying to be all secretive but they're talking in loud voices and not using euphemisms. For example, Michael announced "I killed Claudia!" so that everyone can hear instead of being aware of being in a public place and disguising it as "I did it."; something generic that no one will understand if they overhear.
Sonny's at the part of his childhood where he tried to kill Deke, resulting in Adele kicking him out. Sonny doesn't blame her which surprises Dante. He said that's when he started working for Joe Scully. He talks about Deke's death resulting in his loyalty to Joe Scully. Dante feels sorry for the boy Sonny was but doesn't think it excuses anything. I hope Dante sticks to this way of thinking.
Elizabeth comes back from bringing the boys upstairs. Helena leaves a trinket as a 'thank you' for pushing Nikolas into becoming a "true Cassadine". It's like a golden candy dish or something. Ethan comes in to hear Liz screaming at Helena to get out. Helena leaves but not before joking that if Liz needs a lifetime supply of anti-depressants, the Cassadines own many pharmaceutical companies. Hee! Awesome. Oh, Helena, I have missed you. I had a Helena quote in the signature of my e-mail for ages: "They don't keep people like us in hell, dear, we'd end up running the place". Hee! Ethan ushers her out.
Jason tells Sam about how much he loves and appreciates her. She feels the same way and takes this as her opportunity to get a sauna. Jason doesn't get the idea of a sauna but Sam describes it all sexy-like. That's enough for Jason! He takes her upstairs.
Sonny comes home to see Diane and Carly talking. Carly tells him they're discussing his case but Sonny isn't in the mood. Because he got DENIED. D-E-N-I-E-D! He tells her about his talk with Dante and she thinks that he can work on his relationship with his son later. Diane agrees and tell Sonny the plan needs to be for him to plead 'not guilty.' Stubborn Sonny says no way.
Lulu stops by the room with some sweats and shirts for Dante. He tells her about what Sonny told him. He can't understand how a mother could side with an abuser over her own son citing his own mom as an example. Lulu tentatively asks if this changes things. Rayner interrupts them to warn Dante that he'd better start telling the truth or turn in his badge. DUN! Looks like I'm not the only one losing my job today!
Robin and Patrick are undressing each other while Lisa returns to the nurse's station to hatch her evil plan. She sends Epiphany to the supply closet to get an IV drip. When Epiphany AKA Sassy Black Nurse gets to the closet, she yells at them. Sassily. Patrick asks her to close the door. Hee.
Rayner tells Lulu to leave and Lulu steals some of that Epiphany sass telling Rayner to leave. Dante tells Rayner the same lie he told Lucky. Rayner informs him that internal affairs is investigating and regardless, he's suspended.
Diane argues that she can get Sonny out of this if he pleads 'not guilty'. Stubborn Sonny wants to be convicted so that they can protect Michael. Carly and Diane team up to try to convince Sonny. But Sonny. Has. Spoken.
Helena is back at Wyndemere just in time for 'high tea'! He wants to know what she meant earlier by 'acting in tandem as a family' She has nothing against Spencer, but she wants him to conceive the "true Cassadine heir'. I keep quoting Helena instead of recapping because she's just so awesome.
Ethan stalks Lucky at Jake's, though he insists he's not stalking. He tells Lucky about his encounters with Elizabeth. Lucky thinks that Liz made her choices and should live with them. Amen, Brother.
There's a weird quick shot of Elizabeth's house accompanied by ominous music. The door is open and a wind machine is blowing leaves and water inside the dark living room.
Morgan is banging on Jason's door. Jason and Sam race down putting their clothes on. Morgan is with Molly. They're worried that Michael is going to confess to the police.
Michael is at the interrogation room telling Mac that he killed Claudia. DUN!

Helena is back at Wyndemere just in time for 'high tea'! He wants to know what she meant earlier by 'acting in tandem as a family' She has nothing against Spencer, but she wants him to conceive the "true Cassadine heir'. I keep quoting Helena instead of recapping because she's just so awesome.
Ethan stalks Lucky at Jake's, though he insists he's not stalking. He tells Lucky about his encounters with Elizabeth. Lucky thinks that Liz made her choices and should live with them. Amen, Brother.
There's a weird quick shot of Elizabeth's house accompanied by ominous music. The door is open and a wind machine is blowing leaves and water inside the dark living room.
Morgan is banging on Jason's door. Jason and Sam race down putting their clothes on. Morgan is with Molly. They're worried that Michael is going to confess to the police.
Michael is at the interrogation room telling Mac that he killed Claudia. DUN!

February 10 2010 - let's try this again without snow
Abc.com is like having the snow go right back up to the sky. Let's catch up with yesterday's show, shall we?
Patrick is happy about his latest surgery, as is Robin. What they're not happy about? The lack of sex in their marriage lately.
Johnny has been summoned by Jason. He knows what's going on. He wonders aloud why Jason hasn't killed him yet.
Luke is having free breakfast at Wyndemere when Nikolas walks in. Nik was expecting this. Luke calls him the worst possible insult he can come up with: "Cassadine".
Liz comes back to the Haunted Star for some reason. Isn't she thoroughly embarrassed about all the crazy from yesterday? She walks into the office when he doesn't answer and goes to write a note for him but finds a Valentine's flier for the Haunted Star. This makes her flash back to her rape. Ethan interrupts her flashback.
Credits: I hear they're going to change by the end of the month! Whoo hoo! And then ten characters will leave, ten more will come on and it will be out of date again.
Liz wants to know where Luke is. She wants to apologize and tells Ethan all about what happened between her, Luke and Lucky. She sounds completely pathetic and the crazy is still there. All the while, she's crumpling up the Valentine's flier. Ethan wants to know what's up. She tells him she hates Valentine's Day. You and me both, babe. But...probably for different reasons.
Nik asks Luke if he's happy to be proven right about him. He goes on and on and digs himself deeper. Luke isn't happy how this turned out because he always considered Nikolas the "good Cassadine."
Apparently Maxie and Spinelli had sex last night. Maxie wants Spinelli to move in with her. He wants to stay where he is. She thinks it has to do with Franco. He doesn't want to talk about it. She brings up, for the thousandth time the plan for Spinelli to sleep with someone else. He's already forgiven her and wants her to forgive herself. Why, Spinelli? It's just going to happen again.
Jason says if it were anyone else, they would be dead by now but since Johnny didn't give Michael up, he's safe. Wait, what? Johnny aided in getting their boss thrown in prison. He's the son of an ex-mob boss rival. And that's why he's not dead? If you say so, Jason. Jason says they're even now but he still can't believe how Johnny helped an undercover cop. Jason: "You're fired." The men have orders to not speak to him but to not hurt him either. So don't try to speak to Max, Johnny. You will get the silent treatment! Talk to the hand!
Johnny shows his respect and wants to at least give an explanation. His explanation is that he loves Olivia and even if Olivia wasn't in the picture, he thinks Claudia deserves retribution. He defends Claudia's hit on Sonny and everything she did since. He goes on for a while and it's a pretty impressive and convincing speech. He also throws out words like "Sonny is going to pay.", which...why show your hand, Johnny? Isn't the element of surprise better? Jason respects Johnny's stance but he has to stay loyal to his sugar daddy, Sonny.
Maxie and Spinelli throw around the pros and cons of Spinelli sleeping with someone else. It's kinda boring but it's also kinda sweet. They both show their insecurities. Spinelli actually comes out as pretty logical. He can't justify or get even for what she did so he has to make a choice whether to forgive her or not. He forgives her. She wants to pay for what she did and Spinelli tells her to just let it go. She finally agrees and hopefully this will be the last conversation about this whole ridiculous plot.
Ethan wants to know why Elizabeth hates V-Day. He thinks it's as trivial as being stood up for a dance. She sort of lies and says it is. She doesn't think she can get through the day without Lucky. And then she flashbacks again. This isn't the first Valentine's day she's spent without Lucky but all of a sudden it's relevant because Jonathan Jackson is back and they can actually show the flashbacks.
Patrick gets snippy with a lab attendant on the phone. Lisa tiredly brings up another college reference. She jokes that 'he didn't get any' last night. Patrick defends the situation by saying they work a lot, young daughter, no free time...etc. Lisa thinks that's no excuse to get snippy with the staff and says she should bring up the situation with Robin. Just the cue for Robin to walk in and hear the last few words.
Luke wishes he could just write Nikolas off but he's sick of getting rid of the Cassadines and also he's related to Laura, Lulu and Lucky. Luke just wants them to stay out of each others way.
Johnny brought Olivia some coffee. She informs him that Dante is doing OK but is still not talking to her. She doesn't mind as long as he survives. They have a lot to talk about but he mainly just wants to tell her that he "betrayed Sonny Corinthos and lived". It is a remarkable achievement, Johnny, but how long will it last?
Jason is on the phone with Bernie. He needs to change things around because Dante knows too much. He also wants Bernie to know that Johnny is out and not to tell him anything. He should send a memo. Kristina pops by. She asks Jason for money and Jason gives it to her, no questions asked. Wow. I wish I had an Uncle Jason. She's also there because she doesn't believe Dante shot himself (No one does, Kristina) - and she wants Jason to give her one good reason why she shouldn't hate her dad. Well she came to the right place since Jason is Sonny's biggest fan. Why don't you just ask Carly over as well...and Guza.
Sam is at Kelly's and runs into Elizabeth who's waiting for an order. Liz: Awkward! Sam's pretty cool about it but Liz keeps digging herself into a hole of crazy by rambling on about what she did. Sam is willing to let it go but Liz keeps digging! She wants to know how Sam got Jason to forgive her for sleeping with Ric. Seriously, Liz?
Sam doesn't want to talk about it. Liz...oh gosh...it's just so pathetic. She seems to sincerely admire the way Sam has gotten away with shit. Sam finally treats Elizabeth like a mental patient and explains how she had to just grow up and get some self-respect. Liz: "How nice for you." She walks away. Liz, Laura has left a nice empty chair at the mental hospital just for you. I hope she gets really crazy and develops another personality or something.
Olivia is happy that Johnny's alive. That's nice. Johnny's glad too. He's alive and out of the business and free. Olivia thinks it's great but Johnny doesn't think he's safe.
Jason thinks Sonny is a good man. Kristina doesn't see it. Jason says meaningless words like "mistake" and "code" and it's reaching but Jason sincerely believes it. Kristina argues. Did Jason just use the "Sonny was poor" excuse? Oh no he didn't! So poverty now excuses crime in Jason's world. I...don't have the words to express how sick I am about that statement. And now Sonny is beyond rich, so what's his excuse now? Kristina brings up the fact that his crimes hurt other people. Jason says he's paying. Kristina's all....umm, douche wasn't the one who was in a coma for a year. Jason, "But he gladly would be for you and Morgan and Michael and mother Theresa!" Again...what? Kristina's not convinced and neither am I and this is not a scene about Kristina struggling to find the goodness in her dad. This is a scene about the writers justifying Sonny's horrible behavior because they've dug themselves in this hole where Sonny is the mobster with a heart of gold and can do no wrong but that gets boring until Sonny does something wrong. And it's boring if they make him go straight. So they have to keep justifying everything he does like republicans do about George Bush. Some people can't admit that Bush has made tons of mistakes because they'd be admitting that they made a mistake and you can't do that. So idiots like Sarah Palin get praise because you have to support your party. And that's what Sonny is. He's George Bush and Sarah Palin and the powers that be are his supporters.
Sam comes to Jason's and sees Kristina. Kristina is beginning to understand who her dad really is.
Nik has summoned Ethan to Wyndemere. Nik is drinking and wants all the Spencers to take a crack at him. Ethan claims he doesn't want to get involved but then he does. He says that Elizabeth is a wreck. He even mentions that Liz's suspension is without pay. Really? Nikolas tells Ethan about the rape.
Lisa informs Robin that Patrick is acting like a bitch with the staff. She wants Robin to help. Liz shows up to stares. She immediately gets defensive. She thinks it's unfair but Patrick thinks maybe it's for the best. Robin thinks maybe she should go on vacation and she and Patrick offer to help out with money. Liz just wants them to put in a good word with the board and get her job back.
Patrick wonders why Liz can't go to Steven. They think if she comes back too soon, then the hospital will let her go for good. Liz is pissed that they won't help even though they are and she walks away. Robin wants to go after her but Patrick thinks she needs to work through this on her own like Robin did with her brand of crazy. Robin thinks she only got through it because of Patrick. They get all flirty.
Kristina orders a coffee to go when Keifer walks in. She's still pissed because Keifer hit her. The nerve! Ethan interrupts another almost-altercation and walks her out.
Jason goes over his Kristina conversation with Sam. Sam praises Jason because that's her purpose on this show. Knock at the door: it's Maxie. She tells them that he and Spinelli are back on track. She brings up buying a sauna and wants Jason to write her a blank check. What is he, an ATM today? Jason leaves Sam to deal with it. Does Sam get paid for this?
Johnny is glad to be free but Olivia thinks he sounds reckless. He's on this weird high. They love each other. Yay. He wants her to stand by him. He says he wants her to accept what he's about to do next which he doesn't reveal just now.
Patrick wants Lisa to put him in a good mood by covering for him and Robin. Robin comes by and Patrick drags her to the supply closet.
Johnny comes to see his dad in jail. Johnny wants to take over and run the Zacchara organization himself.
It's Helena!!!!!!!!!! Nikolas isn't happy to see her but I am! She, of course, has heard the gossip because she reads these recaps. She wants to help!
Liz sees two guys at Kellys and imagines them calling her names. She backs out and cries into Jason's arms. I'm actually really loving how crazy Liz is getting and I hope they continue on the same path.

January 10 2010 - this recap has been pre-empted by snow.
Well I knew GH wouldn't start exactly on time because this mysterious white stuff is falling from the sky. Oh, is that snow? Thanks for telling us. I wouldn't have known. Weatherman: It's snowing! Except he goes on for about an hour.
And...oh My God. They completely pre-empted the entire show to tell us that it's snowing. IT"S FUCKING SNOWING. It takes an entire hour to tell you that there is fucking snow outside. What the hell happened to that little informative bar that runs at the bottom of the screen. I mean, schools were cancelled - people are at home. ANYONE WHO IS AT HOME just wants to fucking watch tv and relax. Why would they want to watch about how it's snowing? Turn on the weather channel! Or...look out a window? I mean is there anyone really sitting there at the edge of their seat watching the play by play about how each individual snowflake is hitting the ground?
Fuck you, network TV.
This recap has pre-emted so that we may tell you it's fucking snowing.
