DARK TWIST FOR GH’S “JULEXIS”

In light of Alexis’s arrest for a murder Julian committed, it’s fair to say that things have already gone from bad to worse for GH’s least blissful marrieds. And things are about to get even messier: Expect what Co-Head Writer Jean Passanante calls “a dramatic event in the life of these characters and in their love story, the most dramatic, life-and-death kind of event.” Elaborates Co-Head Writer Shelly Altman, “Each of them makes a fairly desperate decision that will affect them both for the rest of their lives.” Still, the scribes say not to give up hope on a happily ever after. “The road may have many bumps along the way, but we do see it as an extremely long road for them,” assures Altman.
