GH Recaps Week of April 2, 2007

Friday, April 6, 2007
Alexis paid Mr. Craig a visit. Mr. Craig and Alexis traded bon mots as Mr. Craig shamelessly flirted with her after she felt faint. At Kelly's, Skye asked Jax to join forces with her to make sure Alan's last wishes were respected. Jax turned her down and accused her of contesting the will just to be spiteful. Skye became and angry and walked out. At their own table, Spinelli and Lulu debated the pros and cons of breaking the news of Elizabeth's baby's paternity to Lucky. Lulu called Lucky and asked to see him ASAP. Lucky thought she wanted to meet with him to make sure he's still sober. Lucky returned to Elizabeth at the hospital and asked her what she'd like to name their kids.

Spinelli visited Sam, who was upset that she hasn't seen Jason since the night before. Sam was concerned because Jason seemed upset. Spinelli agreed. Just then Jason returned. Sam asked him why he took off on her. Spinelli pulled Jason aside and in his usual awkward way tried to suggest to Jason that it's time that he open up and level with Sam. After Spinelli excused himself Sam told Jason she appreciates how much losing Alan has meant to him. "There's not a day goes by that I don't think about losing my daughter," Sam said, offering to help Jason the same way he's always helped her. "I'm begging you Jason, let me in," pleaded a tearful Sam. Jason told Sam he's dealing with a hole inside his heart that can't be filled, and said he just needs to time to heal. Later Amelia visited Sam and complimented her on how photogenic she is. Amelia loved her idea for the show, but was upset when Sam tried to beg off a publicity tour. Amelia admonished Sam and told her to get her priorities in order. After Sam left Spinelli tried to reach out to Jason, but Jason told Spinelli he's gotta keep his mind on his own business and forget about knowing that Elizabeth's baby is his. Spinelli told Jason he thinks of him as an older brother, and what a great father he would make. Spinelli passionately encouraged Jason to reconsider his decisions and told him he's not wrong to want his kid. Just then Lulu interrupted and told Jason he cannot tell Lucky about Elizabeth's kid after all. At GH, a beaming Lucky surprised Liz, and couldn't wait to find out the gender of "their" baby.

Epiphany informed Alcazar that Ric has subpoenaed his medical records. Ric vowed to dismantle his organization piece by piece and destroy him. After Rick excused himself Alcazar made a call on his cell and ordered that they move up their timetable to take out Sonny and Jason.

Sonny told Stan there wasn't going to be a strike. "I'm not gonna do that to Carly," Sonny declared. Jax called Carly from his car and told her he'd pick her up in an hour. After talking with Jax, Carly trailed Michael down to the basement, where he was laying with a bag of potato chips on a blanket. Carly asked him why he was down there. Michael told him he lost his ball down there. Carly told Michael she needs to talk to him about something upstairs. Sitting down with Michael and Morgan, Carly told the boys Jax was taking her to Montreal for dinner. Sonny showed up on her doorstep to break the news to Carly that there won't be a strike after all. Sonny told Carly he needs to change the way he operates and make good on his promises to treat her and things differently. Sonny invited Carly out for dinner. Carly shocked Sonny by telling him she's meeting Jax for dinner. Carly asked Sonny to respect her choices. Sonny told her she's the bravest woman he knows and expressed hope that one day she'll stop running and express how she really feels. Later as Carly took another call from Jax Michael and Morgan conspired behind the sofa. Michael then called Sonny and told him he and Morgan were fooling around. Sonny arrived and Michael showed him and Morgan downstairs to the cellar. Michael then locked them in the basement while Morgan answered Jax's knock at the door.

Nikolas and Robin apologized to Emily, who demanded to talk to Nik alone. As Mr. Craig watched, she kissed Nik and demanded to know the truth. He claimed he loves Robin now. She got weepy and wouldn't buy it. He said it started by visiting Robin at the hospital and getting misty over their old relationship. She refused to give up on him. Craig marveled at her faith in Nik. At GH, Patrick was snapping at a nurse over a patient Dr. Ford wanted transferred. Noah interrupted to say he will operate on the patient. A sullen Robin arrived, and Patrick teased her, so she fled back to Wyndemere to commiserate with Nik. Robin suggested Emily is more forgiving than Patrick will be. Back at GH, a frazzled Emily sought comfort — from Patrick.

Lulu told Dillon she loves him...as a friend. A rumble attracted their attention upstairs, where Dillon tried to break up Coop and Logan, but got punched. Lulu KO'd Logan, then everybody argued until Coop threw everyone out. Downstairs, Dillon still wanted to take Lulu to a movie. She admitted she used to have a crush on him, and agreed to leave the door open for the future. When Dillon left, Logan swooped in, but Lulu rebuffed him. Maxie appeared and touched off a (verbal) catfight.

Max brought Michael to Sonny's cafe because he wanted to talk "about Mom." He doesn't want them to divorce, and suggested Sonny take her to a fancy dinner and tell her they have to be a family again. Meanwhile, Jason told Carly the box is just photos she doesn't need to see. He admitted he feels bad that A.J. never got to be a father to his child. Carly reassured Jason about his own relationship with Alan, even as Sonny explained to Michael that he and Carly can never work. Michael worried about his mom marrying Jax. Meanwhile, Carly noted that if she gets back with Jax, he'll be the boys' stepfather. Jason encouraged her to trust herself to make the right call. Later, Sonny asked Jason to talk to Michael, but the hit man balked. Carly arrived home to find Max and Michael. She scolded Max and admitted she still loves Jax — jut as Jax walked in! "I still love you, too," he said. Carly wanted Max to leave, but Jax tried to enlist him in the argument. Jax said he'd leave if she says she doesn't love him; she couldn't do it, so Max left. Back at Sonny's, Diane told Sonny that Carly is pursuing the divorce. He was sure he could talk her out of it. Jax wondered if Carly still wants to get back together. Carly fumed about Skye not warning people about the briefcase. Jax asked if she's really upset about the hostage crisis? Carly apologized, and they kissed. Then, as Michael watched, she asked Jax to take her to dinner in Montreal.

Sam worried about the party, but Amelia was sure Sam would charm the sponsors and prodded her in front of the paparazzi. Later, Jason went home and burned the sonogram. Suddenly, Sam arrived with a huge paper bag full of (Chinese?) food. After they'd eaten, Sam babbled about the party. Meanwhile, Amelia's assistant found a photo of what appeared to be another alias for Sam — a woman who swindled three different guys. Amelia chortled over the idea of building Sam up then tearing her down — all on the air, for ratings.

Lulu interrupted Jason stroking Elizabeth's belly to ask for a turn, so Jason fled. Then Lucky told Liz he knows what's going on: She's worried he could get shot or go back on pills. He couldn't promise he won't get hurt, but he promised to try his best not to.

At the photo shoot, Sam was concerned about the appropriateness of her little white dress. The assistant couldn't find any more pictures, but wondered how many aliases Sam has. Amelia distracted Sam by telling her about a network party that night and wondered, wouldn't that be a good opportunity for Sam to promote the show? (Um...duh!). Back at the penthouse, Jason fingered a black box before Lulu burst in to accuse him of sneaking around with Liz. She suggested he talk to Carly, but he knew Carly would confront Liz and hurt everyone. Later, Jason got a delivery: a sonogram of his child and a note from Liz. He gently placed it in that black box — atop a photo of himself with a baby Michael. Then Sam burst in with news of the New York City party she has to attend.

Carly interrupted Jax's scolding of Skye to blame her for the Metro Court disaster. Skye insisted she was standing by the father of her child. Later, Jax tried to apologize, but Carly said he didn't see all the horrors Skye caused by withholding the information about the briefcase. Carly was insulted when Jax compared Skye/Alcazar to Carly/Sonny.

At Wyndemere, Nikolas flipped when Mr. Craig said he's not leaving town because he can't trust Nik. At GH, Patrick told Robin those tests she was running (on Nik's blood) were not a priority. As they sniped, Emily overheard and learned Robin is living with Nik. Robin claimed the hostage crisis put things "in perspective" for her and Nik. Emily ran off. Back at Wyndemere, Robin confessed to Nik that she had to tell Emily the cover story. Nik seemed hurt that Emily wasn't angry. Back at GH, Emily told Patrick she doesn't buy the story. Nik resolved to stand up to Mr. Craig just as Craig walked in. Then came word that Emily had arrived, so Craig threatened to poison Em if Nik doesn't cooperate. When Emily entered she found Nik on top of a sheepish Robin. At GH, Patrick advised Liz to call Emily, because she really needs a friend right now. Lucky arrived at the nurses' station with Cam, so she told him about Nik/Robin. Then they all enjoyed feeling the baby kick.

Maxie pulled away from Coop's kiss because she didn't want to ruin things. At Kelly's, Milo told Spinelli to find out everything about Logan so they could blackmail him into staying away from Lulu. They need fingerprints, so they plotted to get them. Logan himself suddenly arrived and demanded that Spinelli tell him all about Lulu. Spinelli made up a story dissing "The Blonde One" and stole Logan's glass for the prints. But Jackal kept dissing Lulu, which set off Milo! Later, Coop found Maxie in his room. "I'm not a tease," she promised as she kissed him. But he wanted to talk, so she brought up her longing for Jesse. "Don't let me happen to you," she warned. "Too late," he huffed and kissed her. Back at Kelly's Milo and Spinelli were scuffling when Lulu arrived for a date with Dillon. Dillon threw the others out, but Lulu balked at their date. Coop and Maxie were basking in the afterglow when Logan arrived and insulted her, so Coop attacked him while Maxie watched, amused.

Jason was mooning over the sonogram photo when a frantic Carly burst in to babble about Sonny/Jax again. Then she stopped talking long enough to spot the magic box and demanded to know what was inside.

Stan told Sonny how to incite a strike at Metro Court. He acknowledged Sonny as a champion of migrant workers, but he questioned exploiting hotel workers just to get a date with Carly. Meanwhile, Jax invited Carly on a date, but she hesitated. Back at Sonny's cafe, Lainey arrived and chased away Stan. Sonny told her he's taking his meds and staying on the wagon; Lainey said he still has trust issues. He said he feels anger, but wants his family back.

At the penthouse, Sam had a nightmare about being roughed up by a man. Jason arrived as she woke up. Sam said she's not sure she wants to do the television show. Later, Sam arrived late for her photo shoot and freaked when the hair stylist touched her. She told Amelia her reservations about the show, but Amelia told her she can make a difference as a role model. Sam decided that (and the impressive wardrobe) were worth sacrificing her (and Jason's and Sonny's) privacy. During the actual shoot, Sam wore a buttoned-up tux that made her look like a penguin. A researcher brought Amelia a picture of "Susan Curtis" — who remarkably looked just like Sam.

At the Quartermaine mansion, Alan told Tracy he'll stop haunting her when she admits to altering his will. She vowed never to confess because she doesn't want Jason's "non-existent" children to inherit, and threatened to have the ghost exorcised. Jax and Big Alice arrived in time to see Tracy yell at an empty chair. Jax was acting as Michael's trustee. Then Skye, Monica, Dillon and Edward arrived. Monica and Edward were contesting the will. Jax and Alice didn't want to. Everyone wondered why Emily wasn't there. Skye vowed to contest the will on her own and stormed out. Tracy told Alan that Skye is a grifter who tricked him. Dillon saw his mother talking to thin air and told her she's feeling guilt. However, he won't blab if she lets him date Lulu.

At GH, Maxie watched as Lucky brought in a cop who was shot in the head, "just like Jesse." Turns out this is the anniversary of Jesse getting shot. (Lucky's partners ain't so "lucky.") Elizabeth arrived in time to hear Maxie apologize for faking her pregnancy and call what Liz is doing to him even worse. Maxie accused her of not loving Lucky, but Liz (sort of) defended herself. Later, Cruz arrived, then Liz reported the cop will live. Cruz called Lucky a hero. Epiphany summoned Stan to ask if he had shot the cop, or knew who did. He maintained it wasn't him or any of Sonny's people. Lainey interrupted, and Stan said it would kill him to be nice to her. Maxie invited Coop out on a date, but warned him that if he becomes a cop and gets shot in the head, she won't mourn him. She felt guilty for not "honoring" Jesse.

Jax overheard Skye ordering a "shipment" delivered. She admitted to Jax she's running Alcazar's business now. He begged her not to let the mob destroy her like it had destroyed Carly. Meanwhile, Carly asked Sonny to call off the strike because it's not fair. Sonny, practically on the verge of tears, relented. Then he got angry at the thought of her date with Jax. Carly stormed out in tears.

Liz found Jason on the wharf (of course), and noted that Lucky's career is almost as dangerous as Jason's. She let him feel her belly...just as Lucky showed up!

Jason brought Sonny to the abandoned Cellar club and suggested they use the place to hide real "product" while decoying the cops. Sonny recalled dancing with Carly there and pointed out she still owns it, and cannot be involved. Meanwhile, Jax defended luring Carly to the balloon fest; she accused him of lying and "playing games," but agreed to stay. He wanted to spend the night with her...talking and laughing. Sonny decided to try to get Carly to sign over the deed to the Cellar but ran smack into the press corps, who asked him about Sam. Sam, meanwhile signed an autograph for a fan. Amelia suggested that in the opening segment of Sam's show she be attacked — as lesson on home invasion. Sam wanted to keep her home life and show life separate. Jason called Sam to ask her to send Amelia. At Sonny's cafe, Diane tried to fend off the press when Amelia arrived. Jax told Carly he found a new marble supplier. Carly once again vowed to get a divorce from Sonny, once again noted that Sonny is the father of her children and once again repeated how they can't be together. Jax said Jerry's trail led to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. He brought back a big pearl from one of the dancers there. Carly asked if that meant he cheated, but he insisted he never felt tempted. In fact, even though he visited Rome, he didn't try to contact Brenda. However, he was hurt when he heard she had married Sonny again. Amelia promised she'd handle the press and sniped with Diane over Sam's mobster moll image. Amelia told the reporters Sonny is in the coffee business and had nothing to do with Sam's show. Sonny warned Jason they don't need the publicity/distraction of Sam being on TV. Jax said he doesn't know why he wants Carly, but he still loves her. She lamented letting him down and wants him to love her again. They smooched.

Robin argued with Nikolas over going along with Mr. Craig's plan, especially since her best lab tech couldn't figure out what Nik is being poisoned with. She lamented hurting Patrick so soon after he learned to open up, but Nik advised against telling Patrick the truth. Elsewhere on the island, Kristina couldn't awaken Alexis but ran into Mr. Craig, who did revive her. Craig told Kristina her mommy is sicker than she's letting on. At GH, Patrick berated Epiphany over her filing system just as Lainey arrived and suggested he talk to a professional. Craig arrived at Wyndemere and Alexis accepted Craig's offer to spend the night, over Nik's objections. Craig suddenly offered to take Alexis home. Lainey invited herself to dinner and the opera with Patrick, as a way to defend Robin's interests. Alexis tried to get Craig to leave her be, but he insisted on going along.

Lulu warned Scott she will tell everyone he killed Rick Webber. Scott said Laura would be disappointed in her. Lulu denied blackmailing him. When Scott grabbed her, Logan appeared and threatened Scott with a gun. Scott tried to defuse the situation, but Logan let on that he's the blackmailer. Lulu flipped out and screamed at Scott, warning him that Luke will kill him. Scott left, and Lulu slapped Logan for the blackmail plot. At Kelly's, Coop thanked Maxie for helping him cheat his way onto the PCPD. Lulu burst in and poured soda on Maxie's head for the blackmail scheme. Coop tried to break them up, then was joined by Logan, who brought news that Scott won't pay because there's no evidence against him. Lulu stormed out to cry on the wharf. Logan (who apparently has already learned that everybody always goes there all the time) found her and encouraged her to focus on what she wants. She asked him to leave her alone.
