Sunday Surgery: Hi Honey, I'm Home!

It was a three-dayer on GH this week and I have some thoughts. If you read the last 3 blog entries, you know where this is going!!! Lord have mercy. I'm trying there but dang, it's been tough. 

I think the whole town is skipping Thanksgiving this year but that doesn't mean you can't have some coffee and leftovers while reading.  Let's give it a go! 

HANDY SUMMARY if you don't want to read further:

Lulu escaped her low-rent facility and made it to the Q house to be serenaded by Gio and seen by Rocco 

Book Lyn and Chase make ze Wub, even though Brook had on the entire catalog of PJ wear from J Crew

Sasha's pregnant with Michael's baby

Michael recorded Drew saying Curtis was not CEO material 

AND:   Night Court happened with everyone testifying and the jury going in to deliberate at about 10pm 

THE BEST PART:   Oh, Ava and Ric. My new Ship, how I love thee. I tell you what, getting Hearst back was just genius. Plus, you can tell he LOVES his job. Not phoning in one damn word!! Squee! 

SO... there we were, night has fallen and court just beginning. We had testimony from quite a few people and Ric masterfully broke down many of them. The biggest surprise? Old Natalia LaRue said SHE caused the accident. Lied like a house on fire. Does she want Sonny that badly? Even Sonny looked shocked. Ava's testimony was great and she told the exact truth as it happened. Kristina no the other hand even had a flashback but changed everything to make it seem like she was purposely pushed. She was a mess. Even though Krissy admitted on the stand Irene was HER baby, Molly ended up apologizing to her for her father's harshness in questioning. UGH. Oh, the other news? Alexis got thrown right out of that room when she made an impassioned plea for her daughter. Jury is now in deliberations and ordering a midnight snack as we speak. 

THE DUMB PART:  I love soapy soaps. I love campy soap stuff. Things like the Cassadine lab? Load me up. This Lulu Coma Miracle?? HATE it. Here are my main reasons: 

Lack of Laura. You mean to tell me that Lulu is moved and gone long enough that the staff see Cyrus as her 'caretaker' and personal bestie?  Didn't even blink about moving her to South Carolina with just a note from The Mayor? 

Lulu's awake! Nothing to note on the monitors? No catheter? No feeding tube? She's up and walking and pulling fire alarms and stealing clothes within about 2 days? Also, finds her way out and hitches a ride with Cody Bell.  Cody, not recognizing her believes the boyfriend story and offers her a lollipop. This is what is called a "meet cute" in the Hallmark industry. 

The only fun part was James (that kid is a natural) asking her who she was. Lulu freaks out when he yells "Stranger Danger". Maxie doesn't believe him until Spinelli sees a hoodie in the ring cam. 

On to the Qs!! Where else do you go but the Q boat house where GIO is playing the Star Spangled Banner. I did NOT make that up. I mean, how COULD I make something that absurd up!!?  Who sees Lulu? ROCCO!! Rocco recognizes her and Lulu recognizes him even though he's grown. And that's where we left the Lulu saga. Her just standing there in the Q living room. 

NOTE: In the meantime, Lucky and Liz are on the hunt after the facility calls him. Laura is in a "city emergency" and of COURSE can't be disturbed. Why they did all this when Genie was obviously off just puzzles me (She will finally be on Monday).  Lucky suspects Cyrus and confronts him as he's bus-boying at the PC Grille. Cyrus reading Lucky for the dead-beat dad he is was the best part of all of this!!! BTW,  The facility never called the police but sent Lucky the security footage to which he blandly said "She's awake".  :shaking head: 

THE OTHER BITS:  Because there had to be some filler moments, we had Michael catching Drew saying he doesn't want Curtis as CEO. 

Brook Lyn and Chase try to make a baby through her many layer of clothing. Chase is not shy.

NOTE (some supposition here) between the looks Lois is giving and Brook's reaction in bed when Chase said "our first baby", I do believe Brook gave a baby up for adoption 21 years ago. Lois knew where the baby went and kept an eye on him (GIO). Brook Lyn has no idea who he really is. Other idea: He's also Dante's kid. 

Sasha is pregnant but doesn't tell Maxie who it was, eluding only to a one night stand. Shout out to seeing Maxie's bathroom. 

That's about it!  I think I might have liked the Lulu story better if Cyrus had paid the entire facility off, injected Lulu with some magic potion and she escaped. I just couldn't take the story as presented. Other than that cutie James, it was a giant fail for me. (can you tell? LOL). Laura is back on Monday doing her 'Laura Panic" mode and who knows how long it will take for Lulu too emerge to the entire town. I'm hoping Rocco doesn't agree too hide her in the boat house because Cyrus might get her. Anyway, I'm glad Sasha is pregnant. A Scorpio-Quartermaine baby is just the distraction I need right now. I can also hope Willow gets angry and moves to DC with Drew. BYE!! Not sure what the verdict will be for Ava but a not-guilty would be the best so she and Ric can get going on their relationship. That would also send Krissy into a downward spiral and we can all root for that one.  

Good recast of Lulu... Alexa is doing a fine job and sure has the "Lulu Look" to her. 

Do you think we'll get a Thanksgiving episode? I didn't see even a hint of one in the spoilers. I know they are 'the same' every year but THIS YEAR we have a house full at the Qs and it could have been epic. *sigh*. 

CHEERS!
