Sunday Surgery: The Mama Drama

Alternative title:   Penguin Revenge. 

Happy Mother's Day! 
GH was all about mothers this week. Moms that were searching for children,  children that were searching for their mothers--Moms about to give birth, Moms in mourning and one Mom-To-Be  that didn't watch that first step. 
With Nelle laying on the Quartermaine foyer floor, GH ended in a cliff-hanger this week. Can't remember the last time I was squealing with delight at a Friday show. 
More happened than this--although not a lot to write home about. 

Mother's Day today so my fave breakfast...Eggs Benedict. Crunchy on the English muffins, please.

It's Christmas For the Feds!

Sonny is upset the FIELD IN CROTON is being dug up. He tells Jason. I guess it's not enough he has a story about his Dad having dementia and Carly going a bit Nutty. 

Anna writes to Heinrich, sends it just as Valentin sits down. Heiny reads it and calls Valentine. 
Anna tells Valentin that shes' not looking for her son anymore, Robert is. Her health is bad and she shouldn't. 

Shower: Carly's all upset. Olivia tries to calm her.  Monica yells: If she wants Peguins, she can have penguins! Bobbie defends Carly. Carly takes more of her pills. Nelle says she wants to 'put things right' and pushes to name the baby Morgan. Carly's not happy.  Carly makes Nelle cry. Josslyn is really upset about Carly being mean to her. She reminds her that Nelle saved her life with her kidney.
Carly goes up to apologize to Nelle. She's holding a baby blanket that Carly says looks like one Bobbie made for Morgan. Carly realizes that it was Nelle doing all the stuff about Morgan. Nelle tells her she's probably having a nervous breakdown. Very snarky.  
OMG. Nelle goes to go downstairs. If you've watched GH for any length of time, you know what's going to happen. 
YEP.. Carly grabbed the baby blanket and Nelle fell..all the way down. Carly did the same thing after fighting with AJ, btw.  Nelle is laying at the bottom of the stairs. 

Sam goes into the Aurora Offices dressed like.. um..? A..media PR person? Blue dress..tight (natch) and looks all ready for going out, imo. Peter thinks that Sam should leave because Drew is "better" at PR than she is. Sam says too bad, I'm staying. 

Later, Maxie comes into the office. She's so happy about the information he gathered about Nathan.  What a nice guy! 

Nina and Curtis. He wants her help to pick the ring! Awww, I love their friendship. She likes the ring he shows her on his phone. 

OMG..>Guys, I am NOT EVEN KIDDING. Sonny and Jason..drive to CROTON TO DIG UP THE BODY--themselves!!!!!! ahahahah AHAHAHA. I'm dying here. Seriously? And Sonny just happens to know where it is!! They dig..talk about Scully and Sonny's Dad ...and... Sonny's out of breath. And. I'm dying here. Sonny tells Jason how much he means to him, Jason says they're family ..awwwwwww. Sonny goes to get a flashlight . Jason finds a money clip. Yep. A money clip.
The BODY IS GONE. I called it on Twitter. So obvious it was going to be gone. SIGH. Mike prob moved it so Sonny wouldn't get caught and will totally forget where he put it . LO>

Bachelor star Nick Viall is hosting GH's Nurses Ball Red Carpet. 

I don't watch the Bachelor--and I don't know this guy but I guess if it brings more eyballs on GH I'm for it? Do you know him?? I'm still hoping Erica Kane shows up

Floating Balloons

Killing Eve Balloons at Nelle's shower. They have to the the "new thing" Big, round....1/2 floating with shredded ribbons. Anyway, Avery and Ava made it to the shower.  Josslyn hugs Nelle and gives Carly an evil smile. 
Brad shows up without Lucas because Lucas is working. HE says they'll have their baby soon by adoption and they can play with baby Michael/Nellie #GH 
They open gifts. Nelle gives Carly a present-- it's the guardianship papers. Carly says she'll sign them. 
So, Ava gives the 'mysterious' gift to Nelle and tries to get her to wait to open it and not start trouble. Nelle says no, she opens it anyway. It's a Penguin mobile -- and Carly is all mad because PENGUINS WERE MORGAN'S FAVE!!!! Like what, no one can buy penguins now? LOL Okay. Carly yells and throws it. looks unhinged. 

PREDICTION: Nelle either dies or is in a coma..too many guardianship mentions AND there's the Brucas adoption. Maybe she gives the baby to them and dies or leaves town? Michael isn't really the father? Hmmmmmm not sure but something's up. 



1/2 naked Chase Ford in the shower and Lucy hear him singing and wants him to be in the Nurses Ball. I'm surprised it took this long for the Ford Bro to get his shirt off. Dante says the entire department will be in it so he should too. BUT! It's a prank..it's only him. 
Mike is talking to Sonny about Avery. Mike thinks it's his fault that Avery is with Ava 1/2 time. Mike feels like his life is vanishing.  Max comes in...Mike leaves and Max and Sonny talk about THE DAMN FIELD IN CROTON !! UGHHHH STOP THE MOBULAR angle of this. Mike knows that they are starting construction in that field. Sonny has to MOVE THE BODY. 
OMG. I can't even with this. 

Finn tells Alexis that his Dad married Chase Ford's mother RIGHT after his own mother died of an incurable disease. That's why he wants nothing to do with his little 1/2 bro. 

BONUS DAY: NO PETER AUGUST!! 


OH I think Erica Kane might be coming to the Nurses Ball. 

Welcome to Port Charles

Monica's replacement is on today--it's only temporary so don't freak out. Carly wants to be nice to Nelle and Monica is not buying it. Later, Monica sees Carly's pills when they fall out of her purse. She's snarky about it and they fight about AJ a bit. Carly thinks she's looking past Nelle's faults to get back at her. 

Jake's birthday.  Jason brings over a present for him. He's awkward around Jake. Jake gets a call from Spencer and goes upstairs. Liz tells Jason that Franco has been through a lot but she won't tell him what it was. Jake comes down and says he's lucky because Spencer has no dads and he has 3. Then he decides to open Jason's present now instead of saving it for later.  They are baseball tickets to the PC and Llandview game and Jake asks if Jason will go with him. 

Griffin wants to move out of Ava's. They talk about their differences and trying to stay together. Same ol same ol.  He leaves. Lucy comes in and shows Ava the check that's blank. Ava figures out it's the invisible ink from Nelle's pen.  When Nelle comes over, Ava confronts her. Nelle says yes it was for a Carly-plot and Ava better help her. Ava says no way because Griffin will get more mad. Nelle says "Oh, you're helping, yes you are". Then she shows her the photo she took of the photo Ava took of Griffin's file. 

Franco visits with a fellow Harvey survivor at Kelly's. He talks about how Jim took him in as a kid and he had trouble letting go. He worked for Jim at Niagara Electric /Gas in Buffalo.  Steve tells Franco he's not responsible for Jim hurting other kids. Franco doesn't believe it. 

The Charles' Street people want to sue the pants off of the development company. They want Alexis to be their lawyer.  Mayor Ned is lamenting to Olivia about the insurance company not paying up.  Alexis says that the company is bankrupt. They decide to sue the city. 

Olivia made a tourist video for "Port Charles" and it's pretty funny. She does a good job trying "not" to act--act. Fun. They go to Kelly's, GH..and the Metro. 

GREAT LINE OF THE DAY: Carly tells Griffin he's Ava's boy toy that she seduced to replace her son! ahahhaa 



GH Fantasy Event in Boston...Genie posted this on twitter this weekend.

Sunday Surgery: Is It August Yet?

So, did I miss where we are all moving in together after we lost our places in the earthquake? 

Well, it's MAY--meaning May Sweeps are on the way. I had no idea what they were even thinking of doing for them but Friday's show may have given us an inkling of the direction things are going. 

Oh boy--this week. How can I explain it? Thin? I decided to do one of my scripting recaps because it was just soooooooo tedious. Even then I couldn't find a lot of photos on twitter because people just weren't interested!! 

Grab-and-Go today. Have a smoothie. 

Pills in A Purse

Michael and Nelle talking to Lante about pediatricians. Nelle said they found one doctor "a little cold" Lulu says: You should get along perfectly lol

Maxie at Nathan's grave..crying and talking to him. Chet comes in and talks to Maxie about getting sober and how Nathan helped him. He wanted to leave his sober chip on his grave.  Chet also talks her into taking the money from Faison's son.

Nina confronts Peter with the file he has on Nathan. Peter says it's for a 'surprise' for she and Maxie. He says he got the stuff from Donna Mills (her mother) who's in jail. Nina wants to call her to find out if it's true.  BUT! Valentin interruptus.  Later at Kelly's, Nina calls Dr. O asking about the information that Peter had.



Carly takes her pills at the Metro Bar AGAIN. Who does that? Who takes their pills at work...in public? Of course Sonny sees her and asks about them. She acts all giddy. Is this part of the thing about taking the pills? WEIRD.  
She thinks Nelle is doing the guardianship to get to Michael...Sonny thinks it's a good thing.

Robert and Anna are on, talking no-stop about HEINY. UGH waste of TRISTAN ROGERS!  I liked it when he visited Val and then had fun with Finn at Kelly's.  Anyway he said goodbye to her today. 

END: So... Robert  gets on a plane and drinks his drink. He feels woozy and Valentin shows up and Robert passes out. 

Because GH Needed MORE NEWBIES....

So, Elizabeth Hendrickson is coming to General Hospital as a new character soon. SID reports that she's "not a Hayden recast" --which was my first thought. I mean, why did they get rid of Becky Budding if they were just going to turn around and hire another soap vet similar to her?? 

Elizabeth was on AMC as "Frankie"...Bianca's first girlfriend. I really liked her on the show and think she's a fine actress.  She was also on Young and Restless as Chloe, who was involved with Billy Miller's character. I guess they had good chemistry. All I can think of is when Mary Beth Evans came to GH and was paired with Stephen Nichols-- remember that?? 

Anyway, ANOTHER CAST MEMBER TO ADD to the crowded canvas. What is management thinking? Who will she play? The ONLY thing I'll be semi-happy with is if she's Sarah Webber.
