Some weeks are easier than others to write about. This is one that's going to be on the more difficult side. Why? Most of the week was narrative and just plain plodding along. I"m going to cheat a bit and just hit the "need to know" highlights. It IS Father's Day and I have people coming over !!
Grab some BBQ and sit on down! Time to GO GO!
JUNETEENTH! HELLO!! I did not watch yesterday's show yet. I did see what happened in recaps however but I might be a bit off today!!
Curtis goes to bug Portia. She rearranged the stuff in the living room and DONATED HIS FAVE CHAIR TO CHARITY ahahahahaha! He wants to make peace for Trina's sake. They don't know how to solve it because they are at such odds over the accident. They decide to be civil if they can. BUT They still just stand around and argue. Whatever. They agree to no more parties and when they are together Isaiah and Jordan can't be around LOL.. um, okayyyy.
Trina is at The Gallery with Ava. Tells her about the shower going south after she left and her parents fighting. Says that Kai was right and her relationship with her parents isn't healthy. They talk about how much they helped her after Spencer died but now it's basically toxic. She needs to distance herself from them. Ava says that's a good idea but tell them first.
Carly goes to bug Brennan. Tells him Val left to go to the WSB and they took Dr O to finish the project. Brennan is like: Welp, "Z" is busy so I hope he'll see Valentin. HAHHA Um, What!? Anyway, they think there's a mole in the WSB. Then they talk about Josslyn being at Wyndemere and she has proof. She also says that Cullum suspects she was harboring Valentin. He's shocked. Carly tells him Val called Anna from her phone. He's like: Oh he's SO obsessed with her!! She's IT for him. Carly's all: NOPE. He's all: YEP. Carly says Cullum is suspicious because Charlotte was there when he came over. Brennan is thinking Carly is in real danger now.
Cassius gets a text saying "Your mother is doing well on the project" Then Felicia is at the door because she's Worried about him? HUH ? He hasn't been seeing James that much. He says it's work but Fe was afraid it was because she freaked out on him dating Lulu. He says no, that's not why. He also says that James is better off living with Maxie and Spinelli. Felicia says he'll always be James' dad and nothing will change that (HA!). He's going to take James to the batting cages next Tuesday
Ethan and Lulu are at her house. She's typing up an article about Sidwell escaping. Dante rushes in with info about Rocco. Instead of telling Lulu what it is, he argues about Ethan giving them the passports. Then Ethan finally steps out. Dante says that Brick got some lead on Britt and Rocco's location. They went to Puerto Rico then the Virgin Islands. There are over 50 around there and Lulu wants to go NOW! Dante says no, too many islands to search and Cullum might follow them. They have to wait for Brick to get the exact location. Then when they find him, they will be in hiding with him until the coast is clear. They'll charge Britt for taking him.
Rocco calls Char and Danny and says they have to help him 'save' Britt. He says that her brother might have her medication and can get it to her. He gives them his address. Makes them promise not to tell ANYONE! Britt tries to get up and then tells Rocco she's going to need his help. She gives him some over the counter meds to get her to help. He comes home and also got muscle relaxers by bribing the pharmacist lol.
Charlotte and Danny go to Cassius apartment and say that Britt needs his help. They give him the cell number and the address. He has to get the meds. He tells them if anyone asks, they were there to find Nina.
END:
Cassius goes and tells Lulu where Rocco and Britt are!
Brennan tells Carly she needs to leave town
Trina goes to tell her parents what's what
BORING FOR A FRIDAY FOR SURE.
Well, here we go again with another new character. This time, they describe him as a "businessman with a mysterious past". From the photos I have seen of him online, I don't foresee them keeping him bottled up in a suit and tie everyday. Those abs are going to have to break free sometime. We both decided to play around and come up with a short backstory for him. Thoughts?
Dave's Take:
Hudson was in Monte Carlo and ran into Jax (guest star Trevor Donovan) and while playing poker one night, Jax loses his shares of the Metro Court to Hudson. Jax tells stories about Carly and Port Charles and Hudson decides to fly to New York to see his most recent acquisition. He introduces himself as the new owner and Carly laughs in his face because "Jax hasn't owned or step foot in this hotel for years". Hudson realizes he was swindled by Jax and while in town he decides to see if he can ultimately acquire the Metro Court as a comeuppance to Jax.
He meets Lucas and flirts with him, having Elizabeth clearly mention that "he has it bad for you". Then Carly introduces him to Joss, and he starts coming on to her. We will watch him date both of them, in order to get closer to Carly and his ultimate goal -- the Metro Court.
Karen's Take:
I'm going to bring us into 2026 by making this guy a nefarious AI private equity broker. We find out that Aurora is in trouble because Michael got into some shady crypto deals over the years and never told anyone. Aurora has also been in trouble due to the fact it's media expansion has been outdated and slow. Enter Hudson Merriweather who happens to be connected to a top AI investment brokerage that begins to court Michael into helping them obtain Port Charles land for a new data center. Michael realizes this could solve all of his problems and make him millions in the process. Hudson isn't telling anyone that they would of course, suck water from the Genesee River and possibly Lake Ontario in the process. Environmental concerns and a city's lack of power in these situations could come up. Land is quietly bought (through Lucy Coe) for the use of the center and no one is the wiser. Lucy is happy, Laura thinks some development and economic opportunity is coming but no one ever reveals the true nature of the project.
PS. This is the blog for Thursday. Please leave your comments below for today's show.
So I'm here today but will be out tomorrow for a DENTAL appointment UGH. I hope today is a BIT MORE exciting than yesterday. It was tough staying awake!

Brook makes a face behind Will's back. Lucy comes along. Willow leaves. Lucy thinks Brook is doing great planning and has Willow thinking they aren't enemies. Lucy makes the suggestion that they cook up a plan that makes it look like WILLOW WAS DRIVING THE CAR that didn't stop for Jordan that night!! Brook says: Oh that's sounds great!
Curtis wants to know if Jordan is going to the baby shower. She just saw the doctor and she's healing well. She's not sure she's ready to go to the shower to see everyone yet. He understands.
The baby shower is happening. It's all yellow and white. Stella is there, Kai is going to leave. Isaiah comes in with Portia and says he's staying. They talk to Stella. She's sorry it's there where the fight was but it was non-refundable. Tracey and Stella talk about things and hope there's no trouble at the shower. At that second, Curtis and Jordan walk in. Isaiah and Curtis glare at each other. Later, Isaiah asks Jordan if she really thinks that he'd leave her on the side of the road-- she hesitates and Curtis takes her away. Felicia and Liz see Nina. Nina leaves fast. They talk about how weird it is that both Drew and Brennan had strokes there.
Nina sees Brennan. He wants a cheeseburger. Says Valentin won't go to the WSB or police so she has to. He says she has to save Joss. Nina hesitates and says she sure Val will save her. Brennan isn't so sure. He thinks she's not going to the police because of Drew. She says that she's sure Val will do the right thing. She has to leave but when she comes back she might bring him a cheeseburger.
OMGO WIUROEWIU Willow comes in and says that Nina is at a baby shower today and SHE IS GOING TO INJECT HIM!! OH BOY!
Dr O sees "Nathan" come into the room. "You're here to rescue us"!! Joss says: YEAH, RESCUE US. Cassius shuts the door. OMG it comes out that IT'S CASSIUS NOT NATHAN!!!!! So Liesl's sister took Cassius, to trade to Faison to leave her alone. He never knew about Nathan. Liesl thought the other baby had died at birth. Cassius tells Dr O that Nathan is indeed dead. Kathleen Gati is SO GOOD --YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT! Cassius also says he took over Nathan's hospital records, replaced things with his DNA and fingerprints. Also, took Nathan's body and had it cremated. He says that Britt knew he was Cassius but he's the one that saved her after the Five Poppies even tho he was working for Cullum and Sidwell. Liesl screams at him that he's making James believe that his father is alive!! Then Joss jumps in to say that he did save her and Britt so he's not ALL bad.
OUTDOOR SCENE (real one!) it's Marco's Tennis construction site. Sidwell and Lucas are there. Lucas says that Marco always told him his Dad knew about construction. Sidwell says that Lucas' grief WAS so convincing. Lucas says: WAS? Sidwell confronts him about taking the photos from the safe. Lucas says: Damn right I DID! They argue. Sidwell pulls a gun, tells Lucas to turn around and face him like a man. Sidwell asks if he ever loved Marco and if Pascal really killed him. Lucas says "no you did"...

Sidwell gets a phone call about the helicopter pad-- he leaves. Cullum wants to end Josslyn. Cassius stops him. Cullum is very upset. They argue and Cullum wonders if Cassius is sabotaging things. Cassius says that there's a big payoff at the end and he wants it. Doesn't care about 'that woman' and won't help her.
Laura and Sonny are at the Metro Court celebrating being rid of Sidwell. Laura doesn't care if they are seen in public. She got the helicopter pad cancelled. She wonders what Sid will do when he finds out.
Sidwell comes into The Metro and is angry about his helicopter. Laura's like OH WELL! He threatens her. She says "DO YOUR WORST". He says she'll go to prison for murder. She's like NOPE! Then he gets mad and leaves. Laura and Sonny celebrate.
Lucas gets a text from someone saying it's almost time 'to pull the trigger". Krissy shows him the sketches for the Marco Center but says she won't be there for the opening. She also tells him about med school and he's happy for her. She says she hasn't told her parents yet. She is also leaving for the summer to shadow a doctor somewhere. She needs his help. Wants him to take over the Marco tennis thing and be on the board. Lucas is happy to do that.
Curtis asks Alexis to be his rep for the trial. She says no, Isaiah asked her to represent him because he's suing Curtis. Alexis said no to him too. She doesn't want to be in court and need to question Portia. She feels guilty for last time. She says she will help him find a lawyer. He lays out his idea: To tell the jury that Isaiah is at fault because he left them at the side of the road. Alexis says that could backfire.
Portia finds out Terry and a bunch of other people were meeting with him about his replacement (off camera). He can stay to do diagnostics and consult. He also tells her he's taking Curtis to court. She says it will put her and her children in the middle. She asks him to wait a bit before going ahead.
Trina gets a call that she can have rehearsal space but she's not going to take it because she HAS to get the shower done TODAY. Kai thinks Stella should do more and Trina take the rehearsal space. Kai says she's not responsible for her parents happiness. Banal discussion. She will put her singing higher on the list.

Dr O barges into Drew's while Nina and Willow are giving him physical therapy and demands to know where Britta is. She says she HAD to get money and passports, did they help her? They say no. Then Dr O says "You should put sunglasses on this guy...he's been making SOS signals since I got in here. LOL Then she's like: I don't care what you two are doing, just do it better!! AHAHAA. She just wants help to find Britt. Then she realizes that Willow is after Chase. Calls her a viper and tells Nina to watch out for her.
Alexis has Chase and Brook come into the office to tell them she found the father. They are afraid he will want to raise her. Alexis says no, he wants them to adopt her. He had a casual relationship with Delilah and says he'll give up his rights. Chase and Brook want to talk to him but Alexis says no, not possible. His condition is that the records remain sealed forever. Brook is hesitant because of the mess that happened with Gio. They want Phoebe to know her mother was Delilah and who her father is. Alexis says: Nope No can do. Chase says ok, we accept.
Willow then calls Chase and tells him the social work papers came though and it's all set. She'll come over to Alexis' to drop them off. Brook is kind a miffed. She texts someone she needs to see them. Says she has an emergency at Deception and leaves.
Willow comes over to Alexis' and delivers the papers. She finds out the father is giving up his rights. She hugs Chase.
Ethan tracks down Ava to The Metro Patio. HE flatters her but she knows he's there to get her not to tell that Phoebe is really his baby. They talk about Apollo and how she found out. Then she says she knows he wants her to keep her mouth shut. She also doesn't believe his whole story because he's the son of Holly and Luke. There has to be more to this. She thinks he's going to wait until the last minute then swoop in and demand money.
Lucy comes into the Metro Patio an sits away from Ethan and Ava. Brook meets her and says she needs help with someone that's after her husband.
Cullum and Sidwell argue at Wyndemere. They need to get the project done yada yada. They need a scientist to replace Britt.
Lucas got those photos pretty easily! I guess it was all off camera. OH they show a flashback. He delivers them to Laura and Sonny. Laura: WE are FREE! Lucas says: not so fast. He says that Sidwell has to pay. Sonny says he will do it..no problem. Laura says they have to let the police take care of him. She's not a murderer! They hatch a plan to catch Sidwell doing something criminal.
Lucas is back at Wyndemere at the safe. This is part of the plan to "catch" Sidwell.
END:
Cullum kidnaps Dr O
Lucas got in and out of the safe again without being caught
Laura and Luke burn the photos and negatives
Lucy says she'll help Brook
Ava agrees to keep her mouth shut about Phoebe--but it won't be cheap.
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)

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!
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.
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.
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.
Also check out the IG posting of GH's 16,000 episode HERE: CELEBRATION
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
Some weeks are easier than others to write about. This is one that's going to be on the more difficult side. Why? Most of the week was n...
