Father

 

Thursday and another GEM here in WNY! It's hot but DRY and just gorgeous. The humidity is staying south. WHOO HOO!! My kinda weather. Now, it will probably rain on the weekend BUT! I shall enjoy it today.

HOW did you like the DUMPSTER SHOT of Pascal yesterday? AHAHAHA. It was so funny. Like that's where you park your car?? Is that also another black SUV? :giggle: 

TODAY'S SHOW: 

Alexis confronts Ethan with the photo of him and Delilah. He says they were friends. She asks if he's Phoebe's father. After a one nighter, she called him and told him about it and they were due to meet up in PC then she got killed.  He didn't tell the Qs because he's close to Tracey and doesn't want things to be awkward-- and he doesn't want money. Asks that she doesn't say anything to them. He says he can do the adoption closed, sign the papers and no one has to know it was him that did it. 

Brook tells Michael to stop pushing Willow and Chase together. He says it's not him! She says that every time he and Willow have a fight, she runs to Chase. He says well we are getting along now so it's not because of me! 

Tracey tells Chase he's ruining his marriage just like he ruined his career all for dumb Willow. She tells him to go to the house and pack his bags. He calls Brook and tells her to come to the boat house because Tracey has something to tell her. Tracey tells Brook what she saw. Brook wants to talk to Chase alone. Chase says how innocent it all was. Brook says it was 2x today she caught them alone. He tells her about the job offer. She says that was nice and maybe she was being hasty.

They have Pascal in the warehouse. Tell him why they took him. He says that Cullum killed Marcus, not him and now Sid thinks he did. Sonny says they want to take down Sidwell and he's going to help. Get the photos of the body/Laura from Sidwell. He says impossible. Sonny says I'll get out out of the USA and give you 50K. He's like can't do it. WTF? aren't those photos in the cloud anyway?? So the upshot is, he'll give the combo to Lucas who will get them. Lucas makes Pascal give him back Marco's tie after he gets the combo. They take Pascal to the airfield. NOTE: Pascal says the photos were all on film, no digital for 'authenticity". Lucas leaves to go get the photos and negatives. 

Joss gets caught by Sidwell trying to leave Wyndemere. He says he can shoot her right there in the living room. Cassius stops him. Sidwell says his rat got out of her cage. Cassius says he won't let him shoot her. Their partnership will be over. Joss drops her ring on the carpet. I bet Carly finds that. Cassius is allowed to take Joss back downstairs. Joss pushes her ring under the chair with her foot. 
Cassius takes her back to the chamber. She says she has to trust him. 

Drew, Nina and Willow. Nina thinks they should get Drew sunglasses because all he does is stare. LOL  Willow just talks about Chase the entire time. Then puts Drew away into the bedroom. Willow tells Nina about asking Chase to be her COS and Nina's like Um, what? He has no experience and he's too honest. Nina says the public would hate her spending time with her good lookin' ex while Drew is in the wheelchair. Willow thinks she might be right. She has to keep power and her kids. 

END: 

Lucas goes to Wyndemere and talks with Sidwell who's furious about Pascal. 

Brook hugs Chase but looks like she's scheming

Alexis says she'll draw up the adoption papers to be private and sealed but one more person might know about this (Ava)

Cassius tells Joss he's not going to the WSB and to "Shut UP" LOL 

Bed Pan on the Bed

 

Valentin talks to Jack. Jack say he needs his help. Carly says not until he tells them where he sent Joss. He says he doesn't know. Carly believes him. They wonder if she left because Cullum might find out she's WSB. Carly insists she wouldn't leave without saying goodbye. They have to get into Wyndemere.  Jack tells Val to call his 'access guy Z' and he can tell them how to get into Wyndemere. Valentin thinks he'll be turned in. Jack says no. Valentin says he's not sacrificing himself for Jack. He leaves. Carly stays behind and Jack says she has to convince Val to go after Joss. He says make sure he gets in touch with Z--Carly says it's all his fault Joss is even IN THIS MESS! She will never forgive him. 

Joe goes to question Pascal about Marco's murder. He says ask Lucas Jones. They go back and forth...and at the same time Joss is shown undoing a light fixture in her room/cell. They go back to Pascal denying everything...then back to Joss..then all the lights blow out. Pascal isn't in the room when everyone turns around. Sid hustles all the ladies out the door. Joe calls for back up. Sidwell finds a photo of Marco in Pascal's drawer. Joe says he's going back to the PCPD . Sidwell wants Pascal caught.

Joss is trying to get out her door. She gets out into the hall and walks away. 

Tracey, Brook and Lucy get back to the Q house. Tracey goes for a walk. Lucy and Brook talk about Phoebe. Lucy says Brook is already acting like her mother. Brook says Chase has been a dream to parent with. She says she trusts him 100% yada yada. 

Willow and Chase--she sees a spider, screams. He saves her. She decides to ask him to be HER CHIEF OF STAFF! aHAHHAHHa BECAUSE...he's in the PCPD and.. knows people and can do things for her AS A MAN that she as a WOMAN CAN'T. WTF!! ahahahhaa. Chase says it's a great opportunity but why is it so important to HER? She says.."So many reasons and touches his arm"... Tracey sees it all! 

Laura and Sonny are at the coffee warehouse. She doesn't want Sonny to be rough with Pascal if he tries to get information from him. Lucas comes in. They talk about Joe going to talk to Pascal. Sonny thinks Sidwell will think he did kill Marco, then they can turn Pascal. Laura gets off the phone. Finds out Pascal ran. Sidwell is livid. Sonny says now they have to get Pascal before Sidwell kills him. Sonny leaves. Laura thanks Lucas. He realizes they PCPD may also be considering him as a suspect too. 

Kristina tells Michael about med school and he manages not to laugh. She says she did SO well on the MCATS. He says wow, that's cool you can do it!! Then they talk and end up hugging.

END: 

Joss is caught by Sidwell at the front door. :eyeroll: 

Pascal is caught by Sonny trying to start his car. 

Tracey tells Chase he's done cheating on Brook Lyn! 

BOY SCOUT GOT BIG!

 

Scout, that darling little tyke at 12,  is now aging UP!  She'll be played by Kayden Tokarski (16 IRL) . I'm actually seeing how this could work. She sure will give Willow HELL!!   While I wish Georgie was more in the mix, Scout does make sense. 

Ex-Machina

 

Lucy, Tracey and Brook at Wyndemere to see Sidwell. Lucy has a sling on. Anyway, Pascal says Sidwell can't keep their appointment and they need to leave. Lucy's like: OK! We are out! Tracey says NOPE --we stay. They then talk about Maxie being at the Grand Canyon again. Sidwell finally comes out and Tracey says: this is your last day at Deception. He's like HAHA. She says they'll call the FCC under the Whistleblower clause and they won't get in trouble. He says well, you'll lose Deception. Brook says they'll rebuild. Jenz complains, whines says he's done so much for them. yada yada. Then Pascal comes in and says he's needed.

Cullum is in the hall to talk to Sidwell. He says they can't find Britt. She's Faison's daughter and can hide well. Then he says he wants to replace her with someone. 

Willow is inside the Q house because Michael called her there. She's in her bathing suit because she's doing a PR shoot later today with the kids. Michael wants some other weekend with the kids. She says it's ok. She's glad they can work together.

Jacinda and Chase both in bathing suits at the boathouse. She lost her sunglasses she borrowed from Crimson. Chase says he'll help but warns her about Michael. She struts off in a huff. Then she watches Chase. (I think Michael and Jacinda are setting up Willow and Chase to be together).

Later, Jacinda and Michael talk about the plan. She says Chase is going to have to 'save' Willow. That's what he does best. Also asks about doing this to Brook Lyn. Michael says it's better for her in the long run. 

YEP!! Michael sends Willow to the boat house to get Wiley's glove...and texts Jacinda he's on his way down. Willow gets the glove. Chase comes out of the water with the sunglasses all wet and glistening. HE RUNS RIGHT INTO WILLOW. They breathe heavy. LOL Jacinda is peeking thru the window. Willow and Chase talks. He invites her for a swim? She thinks back to Brook's warning then is like: SURE! Let's do it!  They swim then have a beer. They talk about Willow and she says she thinks about 'us' and how they used to be together. 

Joe and Lucas talk about Pascal/Marco and the murder.  Joe wants to know why he didn't come forward with this information before now. Lucas tells him about the tie and the threats. Joe is like: Meh, I'll file the report. Lucas demands to see Dante. Joe gets him. 

Lulu thanks Liz for trying to stop Britt leaving with Rocco. Liz says well, I did tell Dante about his hand and I thought it was a gun cut. Lulu's pissed that Dante didn't tell her. Oh brother. Dante leaves to talk to Lucas. Lucas convinces Dante to send Joe to Wyndemere. Joes' like: GEESH.. WHY? Dante says to question Pascal. 

Cullum goes to visit Jack at Turning Leaf. He says he's taken over his office and found his "black box". Asks if he turned Britt into a WSB asset and helped her escape. Jack blinks no. Then Cullum basically says he could kill him and he'd better give him the combination to his black box. Then he says, not now, I'll be back. That was weird. 

Nina is at Carly's. Says she knows Val is there and to let her in. Valentin finally says to let her talk. Carly opens the door. Nina's being mean about them being a couple but says Jack has a message. "Ex Machina" and says Valentin will know what it means. He tells Carly Jack is desperate--they are in big trouble. Nina says he's made a mistake going to Carly. Now he's stuck with her. Ha. She leaves. Val says not to worry, Nina won't turn them in. Carly doesn't want Val to go there, she'll go. He says no, Jack wouldn't have said that if it wasn't meant for HIM TO GO. He's going

END: 

Both Carly and Valentin go to see Jack. Val is an orderly. 

Joe comes in Wyndemere to question Pascal. 

And YET MORE CONTRACT CHARACTERS!

 

WELP!! Another whatever age guy that looks like the other guys on the show is coming. According to Soap Opera Network and a ton of others, Dean Greyer of Neighbours fame is joining the cast as "Tristan Rogers"... YEP you heard that right. In a nod to the late actor, they've hired an Aussie to fill this role. Fitting I guess but do we NEED ANOTHER CHARACTER ON THIS ALREADY bloated show? I don't think I'm a fan of his character name either. Tristan would have been enough. 

He'll be airing in July.

The Poor Orchid

 

I hope I make it to the end of the show today. My sinus' are killing me and I have NO idea why. It's glorious outside!! Just the bad start of a migraine. I'll try to stick it out--FOR YOU! 

More ridiculous Valentin and Carly stuff. Donna IS at gymnastics so she's not just forgotten. They kiss and make ze wub. OH NOPE! Lulu interrupts them. She wants to talk about Rocco. And Dante. Tells Carly about the video Rocco sent. Says Dante blames her. Valentin listens and finds out she was going to leave with Rocco and have Char stay behind. Then she slags off Valentin A LOT about taking Charlotte and what a bad Dad he's been. She realizes she is going to have to make peace with Dante for Charlotte's sake. 

Joss and Pascal. He has a gun. Lets it slip she's on Spoon Island. He says she's nothing more than a bargaining chip.  She says he's not really needed either. Says he should turn himself into the WSB. 

Tracey called Ric over to talk to her and Brook about getting Sidwell out of Deception. She drops that Maxie and Spin are at the Grand Canyon. They talk about the Sidwell contract and they can't get out of it. Tracey is hoping Ric can do something more underhanded. He says go to the feds. Tracey says that it might implicate Sonny and freeze their assets. Tracey thinks maybe they can tell Sid they'll go to the feds and he'll believe the bluff. Ric tells them to go as a team to Wyndemere because he could kill them. 

Liz goes to the PCPD to check on Dante. She's concerned because Rocco is gone. He says he blames Lulu when he knows he shouldn't. They talk about the riff between him and Lulu and yada yada. Joe comes in with information. Joe says they found a used syringe in the drawer. Dante says it probably was for her Huntington's but they'll screen it. THEY CAN SCREEN IT? Anyway, Joe asks if he's going to call the FBI and Dante says no. It's his kid and Brook was his surrogate. 

Nina goes to visit Brennan at Turning Woods. She shoots the medication into the orchid plant. She says he's keeping quiet about his 'state'. He says it's not hard. He still can't move much. The nurse guy comes in and says he heard voices. Checks on Brennan. Nina says Brennan has no one so she's there. Then he leaves. Nina says they have to work together. Jack says they have to get Carly involved because of Valentin. Nina's like: WHY? They don't even know each other. Jack says: Um, yeah they do--LIKE A LOT he's WITH HER. Nina can't believe it. "Carly's not even his type"!!! 

Laura and Sonny have Lucas over to talk about Sidwell and him blackmailing Laura. They lay out the whole story. They want information on Pascal. Lucas tells Sonny to just kidnap him (like he did Marco) and get info that way. Sonny says look, you might not like me but we have to do something. Laura says if they can't, she'll turn herself in. Lucas then tells them all about Britt and the medication and what they planned. Also they think Cullum killed Marco. He's going to help them, he has a plan. 

Later, Lucas goes into the PCPD to report something about a murder. He tells Joe to look into Pascal. 

END: 

NINA GOES To Carly's and demands to speak to Valentin

Sunday Surgery: It's Not Easy Being Mean

 

Last week was 4 days long and some of it was good and some of it was in true GH style---dropping of a big ball and just rando things popping up. 

I'm really getting tired of the character revolving, actor scheduling BS that seems to just leave the show in eternal chaos. Holes were left again this week.  More on that later. 

Much like GH, A mixed bag of fruit salad is on order today and since I have a Starbuck's gift card, a Dragon fruit Refresher. (I'd never pay full price for one--a grande with black tea is $8!!)

Thx to my 'staff'': Dave, Sonya and Paparazzi Sloan. Ya keep me sane.
