Dealing with some outside issues, I apologize for these
being delayed, brief, and different than normal. However, given the recent
trend of events, I feel there is a need to do something.
January 12, 2018
"You stepped
aside and let Jake be out of your life. So it begs the question why you
wouldn't show the same consideration for Danny." Things change, Alexis.
Jason learned that doing that is not the right way to handle, and regrets lost
time. Recall he wanted to make up the time lost, get to know Jake, and let
him know that rightfully he deserved a spot in his life. He also expressed a
potential to change everything in his life to simply be there for Sam and Danny
when Danny was found – just before he *died*. If Sam can grow and learn to be
“afraid of the mob” or whatever we want to use for this new approach to her
character, then isn’t Jason allowed the same growth, too?
Oh, and saying that
Danny only knows Drew as his father in his life? Ha! Do we need to show Alexis
what happened when Danny found out the truth about daddy? Instant bond between
Jason and Danny!
You can see by Sam's
face, and shaking her head no that she can't believe this, disagrees with this.
So Alexis it’s ok Sam
sleeps with Jason all the while knowing about Jason’s life and now you want him
to step aside and let Drew raise Danny cuz of his lifestyle? The nerve of this
bitch. She understood the lifestyle herself and was well about being apart
of it. Recall having a kid (Kristina) with the Godfather (Sonny). Recall having
a kid with Julian (Sam) and then actually going back to him knowing his
connections. Recall even still feeling a draw to him despite everything that
has happened. I remember, recall she tried to help Julian get custody of Leo.
But no, it has to be simply black and white for her daughter.
All I could do through
the divorce proceedings and Alexis’ comments regarding Danny is go, "What?
Are you kidding me? Is this really happening?"
"I will not sign
anything that doesn't allow Jason to be apart of Danny's life." Thank you,
Sam. Least you have a sign of respect in the midst of all this - even if we
know what you're doing is wrong. I mean, look at the glances back and forth
from each other. Least we know that the Sam that we love is hidden in there somewhere
as we saw a sign today with her comments for mommy. But my gosh, can I just
give Jason a big hug? It's tearing him apart.
"I'll see you
around." "Okay." But how much? We know Sam is going to avoid
more now due to her feelings coming out more and more. They probably will only
see each other for Danny's sake.
"For all intents
and purposes your marriage is dissolved, so you're both free to move on."
Alexis / "Good luck with that." - Diane /// Diane sees what we see.
She knows she'll see them again together after the #JaSamReunion2018.
"I know that
wasn't easy." "And you made it tougher." "As your attorney,
I had your best interests in min-" "Not anymore. You're fired."
Excuse me while I laugh for the rest of the afternoon. Alexis deserves that after
her stupid Danny rant.
But wait, what is Sam
going to do without an attorney if she gets into trouble? Actually nevermind.
No matter what, we know Jason will cover her butt and have Diane represent her
if she does get into any trouble. Recall, he will do anything for her.
"He has already
given away everything. Is he supposed to give away his son too? Jason deserves
the opportunity to be a father. Danny already likes him. I will not be the one
to keep Jason out of Danny's life." Sam, is that you? Are you really there?
Thank you!
"If something
happens to me, Jason will make the right decision. But you don't like him. He's
not your image of a perfect man." Now this is the Sam that I have been
missing.
"He's generous,
brave, and he loves without holding back - and I want him to teach my son all
of my life." Sam can't teach that because she's actually holding back
herself right now, denying her own feelings. So now it is on Jason's shoulders
to do so.
Why should it matter
what Drew's thoughts are on the Danny subject? He's not the father!
"She brought up
Julian." "Oh gosh, what about Julian?" "I don't know. She
just wanted to piss me off." "Mission accomplished." Alexis is
just mad that she can't control Sam's life.
I laugh at how they
spar against each other, and then just so simply end up going out as friends
for lunch. Gotta love the Alexis and Diane dynamic at times. #GH
"I don't want to
go here..." But yet Alexis, you've been hanging out at Charlie's Pub for
weeks.
Look at the jealousy
on Alexis' face in seeing Julian interact with Kim.
Peter was all about
money, business. But now he's using the family line after the discussion with
Lulu? I add that to the evidence that he is Faison’s son.
"You gave Lulu an
interview as Faison's son? What were you thinking?....When Faison finds out
your his son, he's going to come looking for you." "That's what I
want. I don't want to be running." I'd also put an end to all of our
headaches about annoyance in hearing the name. I mean, besides, what fun is
a villain that is in hiding? They’re more fun when they’re on the prowl,
sneaking around town, planning their next move. It keeps you on your toes.
That’s why Manny and Franco were so successful.
"What if Faison
figures the best way to get to you is to get to your wife?" She has a
point..... #GH
I guessed this before it happened. You had to know Peter and Lulu were going to release the article
before Nathan has a chance to cancel it. Otherwise, what would be the
significance of this storyline in connection to everything? Besides, it shows
another layer to Peter’s determination to find out the truth.
Ever since Aurora
Media's launch, there have been no contact between St. Claire and the
publisher. But of course not, because Peter (who is St. Claire) works for the
publishing company as a head for them so he wouldn't need to message a source.
That desperation - is
why Spinelli's e-mail should work perfectly.
That black dress looks
horrible on her. I would prefer the red dress, personally, for Jocelyn.
"Woman have to be
smarter, tougher, to make it through - esp when ppl try to bring us down. &
the way we dress is apart of that." Can't believe how shallow Carly has
gotten about dresses and slut shaming. It's like a step back in woman movements
to have a theory like that.
Well, Jocelyn said she
was going to blow Oscar's mind on the night of the dance. That's one way to do
it. (found condoms)

I didn’t get a chance to make my usual notes as I normally
do due to other reasons – but I do have some stuff to say.
The answer to the e-mail was no surprise, as noted in my
comments from Friday’s episode. Peter couldn’t resist temptation and Spinelli
is a computer genius. The last response though saying, “You’re asking about a
sequel, huh? You obviously haven’t seen the ending.” was intriguing, though.
Don’t get me wrong – Spinelli is a genius, but there is
quite the possibility that his program could’ve went the wrong way with the
ending. But what is the ending that Peter has in plan? Does he rid of his
father? Does something happen to the others involved, like say the character
meant to represent actions against Jason?
Also, if you go back to Friday’s episode when the person
(Peter for sake of argument here) was checking his e-mail. He had the Port
Charles website loaded with the article on Nathan, a photo of Faison, his
messages, as well as a blank word document titled The Severed Branch – the Epilogue. The page is blank because the
chapter can’t be written without the characters at play, or because the events
haven’t happened yet. Perhaps that happens when Faison, Nathan, Jason and Peter
all cross paths together.
For the record – Diane is my hero, plain and simple. I love
how she came to visit Jason in front of Sonny and dropped the truth bombs from
all directions. From saying that Jason basically handed everything over without
any regard (which is true) and trying to get Sonny to say something to Jason,
to “but if you wanted to make Sam happy, that was your objective, you failed. You
achieved the opposite; she will never be happy with him. She might have been if
you had stayed away, you hadn’t come back, but you did. You’re here and she
loves you. Even a lawyer can see that.” Sorry, but that is evident based on how
Sam reacted throughout the divorce and other Jason-related deals, and how she
has to keep assuring herself and Drew about their love together. We’ve seen
enough people pour the tea for Sam – now it’s nice to see someone pour it
directly in Jason’s face.
“She’s never going to
leave him.” “How will you know if you never ask?” Is this the beginning where
he finally see Jason spill his emotions to Sam and make her feel every bit that
he is feeling? Is this the beginning of seeing what we’ve been asking for now
for months? I actually wished we would’ve gotten Jason’s answer to the
question, too – instead of the e-mail. But okay, the e-mail was a good clue.
Can I have both next time, please?
I give General Hospital credit with their latest Carly
storyline surrounding Jocelyn and her growing up. It’s the fear that each
mother faces as their child gets older, and it’s nice to see it being
recognized on the big screen. We also know how the sex talk between a parent
and their child can ultimately be considered taboo, scary to do, has a negative
connotation with it for all sorts of reasons. It’s also nice to see that being
on topic for Tuesday’s episode.
Finn expressing his regret in losing his wife and Hayden
broke my heart, especially when he admitted that he doesn’t know if he can take
another loss. Maybe that’s why he pulled away from Anna after Jordan’s comment
– fear of repetition. But as they say, when two people are attracted, they
always find a way to be together so I have a feeling something is going to
give.
Alexis admitting that she makes bad decisions around Julian
is nice. Now it’s time to start taking those proper steps to avoid him – like
not going to place his works, not gawking at him flirting with someone else,
not caring about every stage of his new life including the brick situation. But
can she actually do that? From what I’ve seen, I don’t think so.
I don’t have much to say on the Maxie/Lulu situation, except
I am glad that Maxie’s baby is okay. Now maybe it’ll give Lulu a reality check
so she doesn’t go around like this know-it-all journalist that she has been
doing despite having no formal training.
