Seeing as though Faison is set to appear, there is only one
response – FINALLY!!!! I mean, how long have we been chasing the guy around?
Now for being a Tuesday episode and not having the greatest cast
of characters that I would normally like to watch, it wasn’t that bad at all –
actually, it was pretty good. Maybe Faison returning to town is a good thing
after all.
Anyways….here you go…..
“No matter what
happens, your husband will be the next mayor of Port Charles.” Please, oh
please, oh please, can that never see the light of the day? Sorry, but his
ability as mayor would not be in the town’s best interest, considering his
conscious focus on money. Business? Sure, but running a town? Not what you want
to see.
“Do you agree with
this?” “Of course.” “So do I.” Of course Julian would give Alexis a vote of
confidence. It’s all about trying to woo her back in. While Alexis gets my vote
due to her standards, I do not see her fit for office, given her frantic
behavior over the past several months.
“If I’m right, Faison
is hiding on Spin island.” Can we please get rid of the islands? I still
roll around in agony at the thought of Cassadine Island. Why is it every other
General Hospital story resorts to a bloody island?
Okay, I admit – Faison’s scream made me jump in my skin. We
can get rid of the big scary man now. Jason, where are you?
“We’re on the island all alone, and nobody is
coming.” Ha! The irony in hearing that right after the pitch from Lulu to Peter.
“If we find anything
criminal, I will come down on those clowns like a ton of bricks….” That’d
be the first time Jordan has actually done her job fully by herself. Oh wait,
that’s why Curtis is investigating it instead of her, despite her being the police
commissioner and Curtis not even being on the force.
“Olivia, I’m not the
enemy. Once I take office, I am going to be the mayor that the city needs – and
I want everybody to know that.” Then how about you do the right thing in
relation to Charles Street?
“There could be one
other person he could be targeting – his other son.” If Anna didn’t want a
lot of talk about this “other son” as we’ve seen in her interactions with
Sonny, then why do you go forth and tell the police? Furthermore, notice the
look of surprise on Nathan’s face? Not only does he find out he has a psycho
daddy, but yes, you have a brother. Oh, and should we tell Nathan that his
brother works at Aurora Media? Yes Peter, I am still looking at you. I am
sticking by my theory he is the second son until DNA or another appearance
proves otherwise. Please see previous entries for evidence.
Notice the sly smile on Alexis’ face as Julian talk about
how he was redeemed? Yeah, she’s not gonna be able to stay away from him
forever. By the way, Julian, my view on you hasn’t changed. Sure, justice
failed – but in the court of public opinion, you’re still an ass.
“With Valentine and
Nina out of town, it is the perfect time for me to check out Windemere.” Not
a bad idea…..
“In a long complicated
story, I share a daughter with Valentine Cassadine.” “Drunken night?” “No, a
very long story….” Trust me Peter, you’re gonna wanna have some alcohol for
this one. I needed it.
“If Faison is at
Windemere, maybe he left a trail of bread crumbs. With your permission, I will
follow those bread crumbs wherever they lead.” So let’s say Peter goes
ahead and allows her to go forth with her plan. The brother will be have a way
to search for his father and meet up to fulfill the plan of revenge, killing,
whatever the manuscript says – without having to get his own hands dirty in the
process. It’s not a bad plan if you’re in Peter’s shoes.
“Even now, I will do
anything for you.” “Then fine – give me back the years that I lost with my
son.” “I misspoke. I will give you anything but that.” Least she’s doing a
good job at standing her ground.
“Our son is nothing
like you. Nathan is good.” He is very good, indeed.
Great job, Anna. Now we’re going to have Jordan stomping at
Sonny’s door searching for the manuscript, the one piece of the puzzle that has
allowed him, Jason and Spinelli to find out more than we could’ve imagined.
While you think you’re helping, you’re doing more damage than good.
“Literally nobody will
show up at the polls, and you’ve won this election.” Cocky bunch. I hope
someone steps up just so we can put an end to his showboating.
“My first step would
be to appoint a special committee for Charles Street Development, and I would
like Alexis to serve as chair.” Well, that’d be interesting – considering
Alexis has been against changes happening.
“Faison, leave our son
alone. Do anything to me!” “I’ve already done what I wanted. I have a son!” I
give him credit for a good line.
“I have it covered.”
“So you’ve said, but you haven’t said how.” “I’m working on that.” Well, at
least she wasn’t dumb enough to reveal everything.
“Are you buying any of
that?” “Hell no!” Ha! And this is why Jordan and her staff never solve any
crimes, and it’s always left up to everybody else.
“When your editor
assigns you a cat show, you write about the cat show. But what you do on your
own time, that is totally up to you. But just be careful.” In other words, you have my informal
permission because I want this information for myself but I know it’s wrong.
“Promise me you won’t
do anything crazy…” Notice how Lulu didn’t say anything? And besides, could
we ever get Lulu to promise such a thing anyway?
Alexis’ response to Ned regarding the big building actually
has me leaning more towards her running than I was originally thinking.
”It’s such an honor to
meet you. [….] It’s my pleasure. You have quite the reputation here in Port
Charles, Agent Duvane.” Of course Peter would be curious about Anna, given
how *his father* has been obsessed with her.
“Is there really
another son?” “Of course, and how do you know about him?” “That’s classified.” “Of course.” Peter really wants to know more information because clearly,
someone is getting closer to him.
“As much as I want to
help you, I am not going to compromise the ethics of this company…” Notice
how he put his back up immediately in them trying to capture Faison? Because
it’s clear that he wants him for himself.
Why doesn’t it surprise that Lulu found Oberect tied up?
“I want everybody to
know their voices are going to be heard.” “Over wrecking balls and jack
hammers?” And the hits just keep on coming from Alexis.
“Life is change,
progress is change, and the people down here will thrive. Charles Street will
be a place to be proud of.” “Some of us
are proud of Charles Street. We want it revitalized and restored – not redeveloped.” Really, this is a pretty neat storyline
given the changes you see in the world, the more I think about it. Look at how
cities continue to change, and people begin to lose integrity in what they
needed. Respecting the old and culture, but set for change.
“I don’t believe you.
You don’t want to help the WSIB, but why not?” Glad that Anna got at least
some suspicion from that discussion. Maybe we’ll get somewhere. And notice how
she didn’t get the e-mail until after she was out of his office? Notice how he
was set to meet up, because obviously he wants to move things along quicker?
“I’m officially running for Mayor.” Oh
boy, let the games begin Alexis.
“You should’ve stayed
out of it, but you didn’t. Now, what am I supposed to do with you?” Technically,
Faison should thank Lulu as if it wasn’t for her, he wouldn’t had known about a
son. So that should at least be rewarded, in some way.
Of course, he can’t just let her go easily, either. So
perhaps keep her kidnapped, allow her to live, maybe let her off free somewhere
without trace of remembrance? Killing would not be a good sign of gratitude.
She could also conduct an interview, submit it while
kidnapped, to heighten the intrigue and suspicion – and make things a little
crazier, which would be psychopath material.
Either way, perfect cliffhanger.
