What's the Safe Word?

 

HUMP DAY! The show has been moving along and I am loving it!! Yesterday was just perfect.  Pinching myself lol 

Steinmaur: Lulu goes to talk to Valentin about seeing Charlotte. Charlotte is in the hall with Brennan. I thought NuChar was Nelle at first. Lulu and Valentin talk about Charlotte and she goes out and gets her. Charlotte runs to Valentin and they hug.  She calls him Dad instead of Papa and he knew there would come a day when it happened. He tells her not to trust Britt Westborne and tell Rocco the same.

Brook and Chase talk about accepting Ronnie into the family so the house stays in the family.  She wants to throw a community tea party for her.  

Ronnie goes to eat at Bobbie's where Gio is now working. They talk about the Q house. Why he left there, family history yada yada. She tells him not to stay angry too long. 

Ronnie goes to the Qs and Brook Lyn says: HOW about a tea party! Ronnie acts weird and says she has nothing to wear. She wants to pass. Then Brook uses Monica to make her say yes. "She was such an important part of the community". She says yes. Tracey walks in and is like: YES to what?

Tracey barges in on Lucas and Marco's lunch, shoves Lucas out and says she needs a lawyer. Wants Marco to get rid of the 'squatter' in her house. Lucas says: You are paying for lunch! Marco tells her they can contest the will but it will take years to get her out of the house. He says she should try to get other people to see she's a problem and that might help.

Britt and Vaughn end up at The Metro Bar and start talking. HOT NEW BARTENDER ALERT! He wants to ask her some questions. She calls him a surfer dude and then Lucas walks up. Britt mentions Brad and wonders what Lucas did to him. His phone number is changed and he's not on socials anymore. They banter about things and it's fun. Lucas then yells at Vaughn about hurting Joss. 

Molly goes to Dante with concerns about where Ric might be. She wants him to ping his phone. They find out it's RIGHT IN PORT CHARLES! 

Alexis and Ava are at the house, waiting for the money transfer. Looks like there's a lock on the app timer and it will be midnight until it's done. They talk about their 'peace" and Ava says Alexis is a good mother. Alexis says same. Krissy comes in: WHY IS CODY'S TRUCK PARKED OUTSIDE?? They figure he came to see Molly. Ava and Kristina are going to go give Ric some water. 

MEANWHILE... CODY FINDS RIC! Cody: Um, you and Alexis drink too much, you have a safe word? AHAHHAHA. Ric's like UNTIE ME NOW! Cody hesitates. Then HE LETS HIM GO! Ric has a plan.

THEN ALEXIS CALLS MOLLY and RIC AND CODY WALK IN!! HE demands that Alexis call Molly...NOW.  Ava and Krissy find out Ric is gone and run upstairs. Ric wants the women to tell Cody how they kidnapped him. They all talk about the blackmailing scheme. Then Ric tells him about what Kristina did with the car accident and trying to kill Ava. LOL!! Ava's like: Wait ONE hour Cody, we'll pay you! Ric says he'll pay more with a finders' fee. 

END: 

Molly walks into Alexis house just as Cody says they are all nuts and is going to leave! 

Brennan says that Valentin will now tell him the 'final Caesar Faison Project"
