General Hospital Recaps
GH Week of June 2, 2008
Monday
Carly assured Jax that she wants to fight for their marriage. They embraced. Jax noted that he could understand how upset she was for his insisting that Michael go to a facility. Carly replied that she's angry with everyone and wants to let it go — but doesn't know how. Jax suggested they make small changes, like enjoying watching Morgan grow up. He believed that her life would get easier and promised to be there for her.
Meanwhile, Sonny looked forward to his life with Kate. Kate admitted that she loves him so much it scares her. Sonny recalled how his father had a gambling problem and no matter how often he promised to stop, didn't. Still, Sonny's mother wouldn't give up on Mike — which scared him into walking out on Sonny's family. Sonny related this to how his life is in flux now that he was no longer with the organization and didn't have his kids. Kate wanted to stick around and noted that Sonny now had time to take up a hobby.
Anthony was devastated as he watched his home burn down, citing the 40 years of memories he's lost. Jason looked on as his rival lost it.
At Crimson, Maxie tried to seduce Johnny, but was interrupted by Spinelli. The guys agreed that Maxie was trying to get back at Lulu. Spinelli urged her to get over their rivalry for the sake of her and Lulu's jobs at the magazine. Johnny affirmed that he's only interested in Lulu, as an annoyed Lulu entered. Johnny then got a call about the fire and announced that the mob war has started. After, Lulu went to see Carly and pleaded with her to speak with Jason. Carly said that they couldn't stop it.... Johnny went to the site of the fire, where Anthony stated that it was a message from Morgan. Johnny urged Anthony not to retaliate.... Ric informed Sonny of the blaze and advised Sonny to reach out to Anthony.... Jax was furious with Lulu for asking Carly to get involved in the war, but Carly defended her. Jax implored Carly to not get involved and to let Jason deal with everything himself.
At Wyndmere, Claudia stated that Nikolas had a death wish after he was thrown from his horse, but he disagreed. Claudia then questioned him about his feelings for Nadine; he replied that he and Nadine can't be anything other than friends because he's still in love with Emily. Claudia wanted to give him pills, but he refused. She insisted and he gave in. After, Nik tried to get to know Claudia better, but she wouldn't open up to him. As he fell asleep, she stroked his hair. Nik confessed that he was thinking of Emily. Claudia leaned in and kissed him.
Spinelli went to a firing range to learn how to shoot a gun. He gave it a try, but winced at the loud noise. Soon, Sam arrived and was surprised to see him there. Sam thought Spinelli should take Maxie to a concert instead. Later, Jason returned home and found Sam and Spinelli sharing what looked like a romantic dinner. They explained that Sam was giving him lessons in how to woo Maxie.
Maxie again sought of Johnny and tried to come on to him, but he pushed her away. Maxie warned him that Lulu doesn't know what she wants when it comes to relationships. Lulu again interrupted them and was furious. Maxie taunted Lulu for not being able to deal with another woman hanging out with Johnny.
Jax warned Carly that Jason is dangerous and asked her to give up her friendship with him. Carly refused to desert Jason, to Jax's chagrin.... Sonny argued with Jason over how Jason was handling the organization, but Jason wouldn't take orders from Sonny.... Ric informed Anthony that Sonny had nothing to do with the fire, that it was all Jason. Anthony planned to retaliate against Morgan.
Tuesday
At the Q mansion, Johnny and Lulu woke up in post-coital bliss, until Tracy burst into the room and was shocked by what she saw. Alan appeared and as Tracy addressed his comments, her shouts drew in Edward and Alice, who were also surprised by what they saw. Lulu, however, managed to charm Alice and keep her from pulling Johnny out of bed. Tracy demanded that Lulu get dressed and meet her downstairs. In the drawing room, Edward, Alice and Alan deduced that Luke dumped Tracy while on the road and she returned to wait for his call. Lulu entered with Johnny and insisted to the family that she's old enough to make her own choices. After they left together, Alan and Edward congratulated Tracy for pushing Lulu further into Johnny's arms.
Kate was still in need of a distributor for Crimson. She impressed Sonny with her toughness but admitted she was just bluffing when she threatened the distributor, who was balking for more money. Sonny asked Kate to go on a boat ride but duty called and she had to decline. Just then, Alexis entered with a copy of the newspaper, saying arson was suspected in the fire at the Zacchara mansion. Sonny denied involvement but Alexis said he can't stay out of the mob — it's in his blood. When Diane arrived, Alexis asked if he's not in the mob, why is Diane still working for him? Diane assured her friend that Sonny is out of the mob but Alexis remained skeptical. After Alexis left, Diane chastised Sonny for leaving his friends hung out to dry by leaving the mob so abruptly. Afterward, Sonny interrupted the meeting Kate was having with the sneaky distributor and subtly name-dropped who he was. The distributor practically shook in fear, and Kate used that to her advantage.
Carly returned to work at Metro Court. When she spied a young family, like hers used to be, she comped them free movies, games, etc. Jax arrived and was glad to see her attempting to get on with her life. She said she wanted to, but needs his help to do that. Afterward, Jax was irritated that Carly was still leaning on Jason, her emotional crutch. Carly went to G.H. and vented to Bobbie.
At Wyndemere, Nikolas told Claudia he wanted to make sure she wasn't getting the wrong idea — he wasn't interested in her, as he still loves Emily. When Nik asked if she kissed him in order to keep her secret safe, Claudia got all bent out of shape. Nik apologized for assuming the worst about her. Claudia accepted and when she gave him a peck, Lulu walked in and was horrified.
At G.H., Kelly commented that Robin's blog was a huge success. Patrick's blog, as it turned out, received a number of negative comments from expectant mothers. Patrick was upset that he was so hated by womankind.
At Crimson, Spinelli brought Maxie flowers, stating that he doesn't think she's a skank. Maxie couldn't accept the flowers due to company policy, but was touched by the gesture and called Spinelli her best friend. Spinelli was getting frustrated that Maxie wasn't seeing his attempts to set up a date for them. Just then, Patrick called and ask if Spinelli wanted to finish their tutorial on attracting women. An excited Spinelli agreed to meet him.
Spinelli showed up at Jake's, flowers and all, but Patrick said that before he'd help out, The Jackal needed to do him a favor first. At G.H., Robin was shocked that her successful blog suddenly posted 1,000 negative comments within the last 30 minutes. After reading some of the entries, it was obvious that Spinelli was behind the caper. Robin enlisted Maxie to find out what was going on.
Jax spoke to Jerry about his problems with Carly. Jerry suggested that maybe the reason's Jax's marriages fail is because he gives up too easily. Jax wasn't happy to hear Jerry's comments, even if they may have been true. Back at Metro Court, Jax wanted to kick Johnny and his father out of the hotel but Carly insisted they stay.
Wednesday
Jason went to visit Monica in rehab. Monica assured her son that she was
glad to see him, and tried to convince him that if Jason were to change his life, something positive could come of it. Monica told Jason that she'd been in trouble ever since he defected from the Q's and went to work with Sonny. "Get out of the mob now," she pleaded, "Before it destroys you like it destroyed Michael." Monica was stunned when Jason fessed up and said he'd taken over the business from Sonny. Monica then realized that Jason took over in order to get Sonny to sign away custody of the boys. Jason said he'd understand if Monica didn't want to see him anymore. Monica replied that he's her son, he always will be and she will always love him.
At Crimson, Sonny used a veiled threat to convince Todd the shady
distributor to get on-board with the launch of Kate's magazine. Kate
remained silent and sipped water. Sonny even managed to get Kate a 20
percent discount for the distribution deal. "It was a pleasure doing
business with you," smiled the dimpled don. After Todd left, Kate was
dismayed by Sonny's interference, despite the positive outcome. "A simple thank you would be nice," Sonny harrumphed.
Jax was dumfounded as to why Carly would allow the Zacchara's to stay at Metro Court. It didn't help matters when Carly claimed that she was doing it for Jason's sake.
At G.H., Robin told Maxie she knew someone put Spinelli up to sabotage her blog and wanted her cousin's help to get to the bottom of it.
At Jake's, Spinelli's knowledge of flowers attracted a pretty girl. Patrick
and Coleman bet on whether or not Spinelli would prove victorious. Sadly for the Jackal, the gal's girlfriend arrived. Not girl friend, as in a friend
who's a girl, but L-WORD type girlfriend. Patrick paid Coleman off and
Spinelli was crushed again — until Maxie showed up. In a nutshell, Maxie confirmed Spinelli's sabotage of Robin's blog and told Patrick that since he got Robin pregnant, he needs to grow up and deal with it.
At Wyndemere, Lulu was horrified to see Claudia kissing Nikolas. Nik stuck up for Claudia when Lulu railed into her. "Are you two dating?" Lulu
demanded to know. Claudia allowed brother and sister a moment alone. Nik remained silent when Lulu asked how the two met. Lulu and Nikolas bickered over each other's involvement with the Zacchara's, with neither willing to budge.
At Metro Court, Johnny briefed his sister on the latest developments in the mob war. Claudia was upset that her clothes burned and wondered why Jason spared Anthony. When Johnny asked where Claudia was, she replied she'd "met someone and got carried away."
Jax was furious to hear about Sonny's involvement with Crimson's
distribution. After he left in a huff, Kate suggested to Sonny that they
keep their personal lives out of business and vice versa.
At G.H. Patrick attempted to apologize to Robin. She accused him of having "Blog Envy." Robin agreed to end their cyber feud, once Patrick posted an apology on her blog. Patrick refused. Robin then turned to her laptop.
Spinelli deleted all the negative posts and Maxie said that he'd have to
help her ease things over with Kate for having to take time off for this
matter. They returned to the office and walked in on Kate and Sonny in a
kiss. Afterward, Maxie pointed out that, "dark, dangerous and sexy" is an
impossible combination for any woman to resist. The Jackal took note.
Johnny met with Jason and said he'd keep Anthony in line, but wanted an
assurance that nothing else would happen to his family.... Lulu went to
Claudia and ordered her to stay away from her brother. Carly stepped in and said if Claudia's looking for a fight, she'd give her one.... Robin
confronted Patrick when she got another slew of negative responses on her blog but Patrick assured her he had nothing to do with it.... Jax went to Kelly to see if he and Carly were capable of still having a baby.... Nikolas went to the Quartermaine crypt to talk to Emily. He confessed that he doesn't know how to move on.
Thursday
At Jake's, Patrick assured Robin that he was not behind the latest round of anti-Robin e-mails on her blog. Robin couldn't get over how mean and crass people can be online. However, she refused to give up the blog. While making a new video blog at her apartment, Patrick arrived and asked her to give it up.
At Crimson, Kate wanted Maxie's reassurance that Spinelli didn't catch any video of her and Sonny getting busy earlier. Maxie insisted that she'd never humiliate anyone that way. Maxie then told Kate about her experience with Kyle in high school. Kate was sympathetic. Kate left for lunch and Maxie couldn't wait to sneak a peek at a hot designer's new designs.
At Metro Court, Carly jumped between bickering Claudia and Lulu. Lulu refused to stop seeing Johnny if Claudia was going to see Nikolas. Claudia threatened Lulu and left. Then, Carly advised her cousin to keep her mouth shut and stay away from that dangerous diva.
Elizabeth visited Nikolas at Wyndemere, where they discussed Emily. Nik was at a loss, as he doesn't know how long he's supposed to grieve.
Spinelli interrupted Jason and Johnny's meeting at the coffeehouse. He confessed to "Zen Master" that he caught Sonny and Kate getting busy on her desk. Jason insisted he didn't want to hear about this. When Diane announced Claudia's arrival, Jason asked Diane to take Spinelli off his hands. When she was told it was billable, Diane happily agreed. Claudia warned Jason that there will never be peace while Anthony's still alive. After Claudia exited, Spinelli confided in Diane that Maxie wants some desk sex. Diane basically said wake up and smell the coffee. "If you want her, go and get her," she advised. Spinelli left in a frenzy.
Carly returned home to flowers and a romantic dinner. She was grateful but confessed she didn't know if she could ever be happy again. For the first time in a while, the pair opened up to each other. "I need you," Carly told Jax. "I love you," he replied. Jax toasted their wedding anniversary and told Carly all the things he loves about her. Carly kissed him. Jax gave her an anniversary gift, a charm bracelet, with charms for the boys — "and room for more," he hinted.
Johnny met Lulu at Metro Court, and she blabbed to her man that Claudia was sleeping with her brother and she wanted it to stop. Lulu went to see Jason, while Johnny showed up at Wyndmere. He ordered Nik to stay away from his sister. Just then, Claudia showed up and was furious at her brother's interference.
Friday
At Crimson, Kate walked in just after Spinelli threw Maxie down on her desk and began kissing her. Kate ordered them both out. In the lobby, Maxie called Spinelli a genius and kissed him. Maxie assumed that he was creating a diversion so Kate wouldn't catch Maxie sneaking a look at the secret designs from yesterday's episode. Kate returned and demanded an explanation. Spinelli took full responsibility and Kate banned him from the office. After he skulked out, Maxie stood up for Spinelli with Kate, and made the fashionista see that she was too hard on the guy.
Sonny found Mike beaten up on the docks. "Who did this to you?" he demanded to know. Sonny then whisked Mike off to G.H.... At the coffeehouse, Jason warned Lulu to stay out of mob life, but she wouldn't listen. She barked back at Jason that he could have a family if he really wanted it.
At Wyndemere, Claudia told Johnny to back off from Nikolas, insisting that her life is her own business. She explained that Nikolas is a good friend who took care of her when she needed him. Johnny thanked Nik, but told him to stay away from her. Claudia told Johnny that they didn't sleep together, that Lulu jumped to the wrong conclusion and that, "My honor is still intact." She then asked Johnny to leave. Claudia informed Nikolas that Lulu was to blame for Johnny's outburst. Just then, Lulu burst in. Claudia advised Nik to keep Lulu in line and left. Afterward, Nik assured his buttinski sister that he's not in love with Claudia so she's got nothing to worry about.
After Jax gave Carly the charm bracelet, he said they could add one for every baby they have. Carly didn't think now was a good time to try getting pregnant again. "I'm just not ready," she sighed. She admitted that having a baby now would be like trying to replace Michael. Jax, of course, was sympathetic. They went to bed, where Jax managed to make Carly smile again. Then, they made love.
At G.H., Leyla complained to Nadine that her overbearing mother was trying to set her up, explaining that her mother thinks her daughter needs to be married off. Just then, Sonny arrived with Mike. Leyla took charge, then called Kate under Sonny's instructions. Meanwhile, Sonny went to see the loan shark responsible for Mike's beating. Sonny ordered the guy to leave town but the loan shark scoffed, saying that since he "retired," Sonny no longer has any power in P.C. The loan shark called in his goons and wanted payment for Mike's debt. He said he'd let Mike go for a day but, "Tomorrow, the interest goes up."
Sam went to G.H. and apologized to Elizabeth for her past actions. She contritely asked Liz to allow her to at least be in the same room with her kids when Lucky was visiting with them. Sam explained that she really cares for the boys. She suggested supervised visits or even wearing an ankle monitor. Liz apologized for being judgmental towards Sam but said she wasn't quite ready to do that yet, fearing it would confuse Cameron. The ladies hashed out their past and Sam admitted that she started seeing Lucky to irritate Liz but she has since fallen for him and hopes they have a future together. Liz said she'll always love Lucky and wants to see him happy. Then, Liz said, maybe they can work out a visit with the kids later in the summer. Sam was thrilled.
At G.H., Mike warned Kate that Sonny is now powerless and he feared that his son would eventually want to take that power back.
At the nurses' station, Nadine was thrilled when she received a message from Nikolas asking her to come to Wyndemere. Meanwhile, Leyla was upset that her date for the family wedding canceled, because that meant her mother would be shopping her out to any available bachelor in sight.
Claudia found Johnny in the Zacchara tool shed, which we learned was where they used to play together as kids. Claudia defended Nikolas to her brother, and then Lulu walked in just as Claudia told Johnny to dump her.
Spinelli went to Jason at the coffeehouse to "beg an audience." He then unloaded about the latest Maxie maneuver. Jason advised him not to attack women. An annoyed Sonny arrived, chewed out Spinelli and booted him from the office. Jason told Sonny that he was out of line. Jason also said he can't be doing that in his office. "Your office?" Sonny questioned. Sonny went ahead and told Jason he wanted the loan shark run out of town. "That's not your call anymore," Jason replied.
A gussied-up Nadine arrived at Wyndemere, where Alfred welcomed her back.... On her way to the wedding, Leyla saw a distraught Spinelli and asked if there was anything she could do to help.
