General Hospital - July 6-10, 2018 Episode Reflections

So is it a surprise that Nelle isn't believing a drop of how Michael left there to go see Jordan and Chase? She knows to always be suspicious given what she's done already. I honestly don't get why Chase said to meet him at Jordan's office anyway. Wouldn't that draw attention if someone saw him going there? They could've met up anywhere for pete sakes to discuss this - even ELQ. Michael could've said that Chase was following him to workplace trying to warn him.

That said, as soon as discussions about the plan began, I knew Michael would agree as he said he'd do "anything."

"What do you want?" "You need to die." Well then....

With the matters this plan involves, Michael better squeal to Jason because trusting the PCPD in this town never works.

It's interesting in the same respect that in the Metro Court, Michael goes, "I want to get married as soon as possible to get rid of him." So Michael is working with Chase, but tells Nelle reason for marriage is to eliminate chase? This is getting messy fast, and probably faster than I want because I was shocked when Michael asked to get married tomorrow. Can I lose my invitation in the mail?

I think Jason wants to lose his invite because he can see every bad thing about this including "getting yourself killed" being uttered. That said when his instincts are off, that's normally for good reason.

I had a small revelation with everything when Sonny said, "Michael is a master strategist. He's brilliant and it worked." I totally forgot when Michael took Avery away from Sonny so maybe I don't give him enough credit sometimes.

"Since when are the cops involved?" "Since recent." "Then you better start talking and not stop until I know everything." I knew Michael couldn't keep it totally hidden from everyone. Maybe Jason will see through Chase's colored glasses.

I mean, he didn't quite warm up after hearing everything, and the parent argument is fair especially since they're going to think it's real. I mean, do we need anything to drive Carly further crazy?

That said, Michael played his cards perfectly as Sonny said he would by saying, "This is my choice. This is my risk. Don't take that away from me." Michael using Jason's code to be allowed to do what he wants as he knows Jason hates making decisions for people to run their lives. And I get why Michael wants this dealt with and out of the way before the baby gets here as he knows that better than anybody after using Avery for revenge against Sonny initially, and the custody battle for him.

But I still agree with Jason that there's too many risks to the plan and if his instincts are on point, then I suggest Michael cans the plan immediately. Besides when did we start trusting the police department?


I love how Jason goes running to Sam in his moment of panic over Michael. And it should mean something when he says, "I would do anything for my kids and I would take any risk necessary. I can't stand by and watch this happen."

"I don't know if I'm strong enough." "Sometimes we have to force our-self to do something we don't want to do. You're the best at that." But when his instincts say otherwise, he needs to act because otherwise we get a mess for months. Also, it should say something when Sam remembers the small moments with Jason. While Drew left her that night, Jason stayed and talked to her for awhile till she was ready to part. She remembers that in how he looked out for her. That holds well for the future.



My jaw dropped further when Chase asked, "Now do you want to hear the truth about your fiance?" Your kidding right, Chase? I mean, he even complimented her in saying, "Let's be real - you'll look beautiful in anything."

We can strangle him as he says, "This marriage to Michael isn't going to work." You probably wish it was you instead. But aren't you supposed to just be letting things play out so he can play dead and you can catch her? Instead, it's like you're giving away the plans by then saying, "What if he divorces you? With all that power and money, he'll strip you of everything - including that baby."

"I'm supposed to leave Michael, the father of my baby? What's the alternative?" "Me." Sorry but you got no money that she wants.

Chase has me thinking especially when he says things like, "I am angry with myself because I didn't take care of you when I had the chance." I keep pondering back to that person who said Chase is in on this to help Nelle. Or is he trying to get her over confident so she messes up in front of Michael? It seems odd when he adds, "I've always loved you, and I'm starting to believe I never will stop."

"She wants you to leave." "Me? You? Or both?" Hmm...


Meanwhile, Nelle continues to act confident despite those around her still not 100% locked on, say like Ava who even asked, "For how long until Michael sees through you?" That's a failure already as we can see.

But hey, Ava has her own drama to deal with as you can already see her jealousy seeping through when she was told that Bensch has "got a photo of Griffin and Kiki in each other's arms." It's beautiful, really, because that means things should work out great when the truth is revealed.

That said, I am shocked at Griffin for not willing to do whatever it takes to keep Bensch locked up by stating, "I'm not going to jail for lying on the stand and neither are you." I guess he just wants to hand the case over so a sexual predator can continue to contact victims.

Instead, we have Kiki contemplating dropping the case before it even goes to trial. Wouldn't bensch messing with your life make you want to further pursue the lawsuit?

I also chuckled when Ava said, "Thank you for being so good to my daughter." I want to know if Ava will say that next week.

By the way, I wonder where Ava will meet up with people when the pub goes under construction. As soon as Julian said he was going to do a "major expansion" and some digging, you knew it'll probably come to finding Sonny's body.

"So we are clear?" "For now." And here comes construction expansion.

As predicted from when hints began to be dropped, you can begin playing the final countdown as even Jason asked the question, "Once the demolition starts, how long until they find the body?" I don't think Sonny is going to enjoy his coffee now from Julian in hearing this great news.

That said, I was encouraged in hearing "the bigger the project, the bigger the chance of finding the body." Isn't that the drama we want? Sonny made a good try in trying to buy the pub from Julian but Julian said it all - "this building and everything in it belongs to me." Ah yes a dead body is perfect for your collection.

So when Sonny said, "all the drama about the body in Croughton ends tonight," I was all set for him blowing up Julian's place to find the body. Yes, I am trying to do anything and everything for some real good mob drama.


So the Colonial is hiding his recipe at Maxie's?  πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Like really, this was such an unneeded set of events because it was just too pointless and cheesy, regardless of sponsorship. The only thing that would've made it worth while was Lulu stealing the recipe as Maxie gets ready to bring James home.

Now as far as bringing James home, Liesel can actually be really sweet as what she said to Maxie was great. But anybody notice the dull look on Nina's face in knowing their world would come crashing around them? That only continued by her saying, "I don't want him to die by our hands." Like I've been saying all along, Nina has too much of a conscious to know what's going on.

Then you've got Maxie saying, "I wanted to believe he wanted to reinvent himself, start over," but yet she wouldn't even bat an eye at her supposed best friend for months.

So of course that leads to Nina untying the rope and all I could see was Oberect entering just as Nina finishes the last of the ropes. But Nina actually got away with Peter? My heart dropped in hearing that. Glad to hear that she hid him instead. Maybe she's turning a good corner.

Oberect's kinky sex explanation for the bed was everything, by the way. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

"What are you doing?" "Goodbye Heinreck." ....but...but he needs to suffer longer.

"We can't kill him." "Why not?" Because it's fun watching Oberect torture Peter.

On that note, Wyatt was a very entertaining kid when it came to Heinreck with some of his one liners and not finding any help for him. That said, he can disappear now. I can't believe that Peter almost got his escape due to some kid untying knots.

That said, I laughed when Wyatt didn't even leave the snores for a quick snack while Peter wait. But cue the shock and anger in him going to see Franco. Of course we need to make this about Franco, too. Because let's try to redeem Franco this way. Newsflash - nothing worked before, and this won't work now.

The only good thing is Finn being involved because he can find him and get good points in Anna's books. Even Franco said that in saying, "I don't think you care about this. You just care about Anna." It was nice hearing Finn admit it by saying, "I don't care about Peter. I'm doing it for Anna. I'm going to find her son."

Finn also gets the line of the day for asking Franco, "Why are you still here?" I ask myself that everyday.

Really, it should be Sam and Curtis finding Peter - and Sam seemed to be getting close when she was at the party. But instead, they're just going around in circles. Sam having to push the video on Curtis so he sees the smallest detail shows his lack of skills. And then Curtis saying, "Who is she?" Seriously Curtis? Do you need everything written out for you?





"I completely played her and for the first time in months, I felt like myself." "The old you." "The real me." She's back!!!!

Carly speaks the truth when she says "to let someone have that power over me, that doesn't happen. Nelle was someone I could've fought in my sleep before." But of course, let's blame her lack of action due to regret over "the way I couldn't protect Morgan." So we are going to blame shitty character writing on grief?

My heart swelled when Sonny said, "We have to protect our kids and trust our instincts." I feel for them when the plan goes off.
