General Hospital Recaps

GH Week of December 24, 2007

Monday

A miserable Sonny tried to convince himself that Kate skipping town was a good thing, but the coffee mogul wasn't buying his own talk. He visited Carly, Michael and Morgan, but even seeing his family couldn't brighten his gloomy mood. Carly, however, was suffering from a flu bug and grateful to have family around. As for Kate, she spent Christmas alone and miserable in her Manhattan hotel room. Back in Port Charles, Jason marked the holiday by skulking outside the Spencer homestead, watching Elizabeth, Cam and Jake through the windows (but in a totally non-creepy way).

Tracy had a Scrooge-like Xmas experience when she was haunted by Alan after she booted Skye from Luke's hospital room. Lulu, Lucky and Bobbie joined Tracy to sit vigil when Luke went into surgery. During this go-round on the operating table, Luke experienced visions of Heaven.

Mac invited Felicia to stay over for Christmas, and though Maxie was less felicitous, she passed along to her mother an emotional gift from Georgie.
Felicia told Maxie she will always love her, but Maxie refused to make peace on Earth.

Tuesday

Merry Christmas! GH was pre-empted today.

Wednesday

Michael wanted to hang at his dad's office, but Carly nixed it. Jax arrived and told Michael he needs to care for Morgan, not bus tables at the coffeehouse. Michael agreed to help his little brother — but repeated he's going to take over the family business someday. Elsewhere, Jason reminded Sonny that killing Johnny isn't going to bring anyone back to life, and suggested Trevor might be to blame. Jason suggested using Johnny. Trevor, meanwhile, visited Katie with "a late Christmas gift" — her old life at Couture — but she was disgusted. After being rebuffed he declared the door to Couture and the door to his heart both closed. Meanwhile, Carly summoned Jason to tell him Michael wants to grow up to be a mobster. Jason assured her Sonny would never allow that. Sonny ordered Diane to get Kate back, but she reminded him that Kate is in danger because of him.
Lulu arrived to ask him not to kill Johnny. Sonny warned her not to get involved and to stay away from Johnny. "You're both really good people," she said. In New York, Kate welcomed Warren, who offered her her old position at Couture because the magazine was struggling without her. Jason returned to Sonny's and gave Max a giant wad of cash for Christmas (apparently the "shipment" business pays very well), then confirmed that Max had set up a secret safe house.

Luke awakened in GH to find Tracy sleeping next to him. He had slept through Christmas. In the "waiting room," Johnny told Lulu his father has feeling in his right foot. Lucky arrived and warned Johnny away from Lulu. Tracy said Dr. Julian was pleased with Luke's operation. Lulu and Lucky brought him a blueberry muffin. After Lulu left, Luke asked about the tension between Lucky and his sister, but Bobbie nixed that conversation. At the nurses' station, Liz saw Robin and Patrick have a moment; Robin confessed spending the night of Georgie's funeral with him. Liz said, "When tragedy strikes, your whole perspective changes." Robin admitted Patrick still doesn't want children. Jax visited Robin to apologize for missing Georgie's funeral. Robin got weepy over Georgie's Christmas presents, so Jax held her. Of course, Patrick spotted the embrace and got jealous. ("He was on her (sperm) list," the doc noted.) Bobbie reminisced about Luke taking care of her when they were little, and now she wants to pay him back by making sure he recuperates gradually. Tracy backed Bobbie. After Tracy left, Luke called "Fingers" to asked about a shipment of Cuban cigars. Dr. Julian later pronounced Luke in good condition, but he'll have to modify his lifestyle, much to Luke's disgust. Robin told Kelly she wants to get pregnant as soon as possible, and she'll use a sperm bank. While waiting for an exam, Robin ran into Carly, and they traded "slutty" barbs. Elsewhere, Trevor met with Johnny and reminded him that Sonny is out to kill them both. Then Lulu found Johnny and urged him to go on the run because Sonny is gunning for him. A mysterious man and woman watched Johnny and Lulu. "She's our way in," the woman declared. "This is how we get to Johnny."

Liz went to Jason's, where they kissed. Kate, meanwhile, called Clarice to get started on Couture business. Then Sonny appeared at her door.

Thursday

At Kelly's OB/GYN office, Carly and Robin had a verbal catfight over their respective maternal skills/motivations. They dredged up the whole Michael/AJ scenario as well as Robin soliciting sperm from Jax. Kelly broke it up. Outside Kelly's (the eatery), Jax talked to a contractor about renovations to a hotel in Hawaii, then told Alexis he wants a baby. Back at the OB/GYN office, Kelly told Carly it will be really difficult for her to have a baby — in fact, almost impossible. Later, Carly met up with Jax at Kelly's (the eatery). Still later, Kelly directed Robin to a sperm donor Web site.

Jason introduced Elizabeth to their new love nest/safe house (which didn't mean they could be together, it just meant they had a place to not be together...er, together). Back at the penthouse, Lucky and Harper said the evidence in Georgie's slaying led to Spinelli: They found romantic e-mails to Spinelli on Georgie's computer. Spinelli was stunned, and summoned Jason from the love nest. In the park, Johnny scolded Lulu for "falling for me." She insisted she wants Logan, who's "not that bad of a guy." Jason arrived at the penthouse just as Lucky tried to take Spinelli in for questioning. Meanwhile at Kelly's (the eatery), Maxie told Coop she remembered her attacker smelled sweet. Then Logan strolled in, sucking on a candy cane. Maxie chased him away, then noticed that Coop smelled really good. In the woods, Trevor ordered Johnny to take a meeting tomorrow with a new ally. And if he screws up, he might not walk out alive. At GH, a scary-looking dude got into an elevator with Lulu, but turned out to be harmless. Lucky and Harper let Spinelli keep copies of the e-mails (which he called Georgie's Secret Pain). He feared his only chance at love was gone. Back at GH, Lulu ran into the Mysterious Woman, then ran into Logan, who agreed they should keep trying to have a relationship. He invited her out for hot chocolate, and the Mystery Woman followed them. Spinelli assured Jason he did not share his suspicion of Coop with the cops. Outside Kelly's (the eatery), Maxie almost told Coop about Georgie's suspicions. Jason went to the Quartermaine crypt to say goodbye to — pick a dead Q, any dead Q — oh, right, Emily. He reminisced about the first time they met, and thanked his sister for always thinking the best of him. At the penthouse, Spinelli started writing a reply to Georgie.

At Kate's hotel, Sonny admitted he came to take her back to PC, but she said, "There is no 'us.'" She revealed she's getting her job at Couture back. Sonny watched her berate an intern. Kate said she doesn't want to get caught between Sonny and Trevor. Sonny accused her of being afraid that happiness won't last. "I don't want to do anything without you," he sniffled. Kate insisted she wants to walk away now, instead of crying at his grave later. Then he suggested he would try to fit into her world.

The Mystery Woman showed surveillance photos of Lulu to Mystery Dude and revealed that they are set to meet Johnny tomorrow. If things don't go well, they can use Lulu as leverage against him.

Friday

Emily took Nikolas' hand. He lamented that he didn't see her when he was in Switzerland, but said maybe it was best so he wouldn't have to explain her to the doctors. Lucky and Lulu arrived, eager to find out of Nikolas got a definitive diagnosis. Nikolas told them there's nothing they can do for him, but noted that his rage and headaches have improved since Emily's funeral. He still speculated that he might have killed Emily. Nikolas asked for Lucky's help in finding out who killed Emily, "even if it was me," Nikolas told his brother. Lulu, Lucky and Emily all insisted Nikolas wasn't guilty. Elizabeth arrived to welcome Nikolas home, and offered her support. Lucky reached out to Elizabeth to clear the air but their conversation was interrupted by a cell phone call from Jason, looking to confirm their meeting. Milo then interrupted their conversation to warn Jason that Johnny was about to make a move. Alexis and Sam arrived, and at Emily's behest, Nikolas leveled with everyone: he has a brain tumor. Sam and everyone encouraged Nikolas that he had a lot to live for.

In New York City, Sonny teased Kate that it will be a lot easier for him to fit into her world than she thinks. Kate's associate Julius mistook Sonny for her next cover model. Their conversation was interrupted by a knock on the door. Sonny answered and it was a thug, who was passing a warning on to Sonny from some of the New York families. Sonny told the thug that Zacchara invaded his turf, he will deal with it and after that things will remain "business as usual." When the day was over Kate suggested that Sonny should realize they live in two different worlds. Sonny insisted he was fine with everything and could handle more. Kate told him to brace himself for the New Year's Eve party they'll be attending tomorrow night.

Trevor advised Johnny on how to seal an upcoming deal that will give them leverage to defeat Sonny and take over Port Charles. Johnny mused that by getting rid of Sonny Trevor has another shot at Kate and a chance to run everything. Trevor denied he had any continued interest in Kate, and coached Johnny on how to handle the negotiation. As Trevor advised Johnny on the meeting, Johnny secretly pulled a gun from the desk and armed himself. Trevor warned Johnny to be firm but not pushy in his meetings. "You're no Anthony Zacchara," Trevor reminded him.

Sam noted that Jason can't even hide his contempt for her any more. She asked why he's so into hating her when he dumped her. Then Sam asked Jason how close things are coming to a war between Sonny and the Zaccharas. When Jason declined to comment Sam tore into him about how she's been injured by past mob actions and insisted she needs to know whether she needs to move her family to safety.

Jerry asked Alexis for legal advice on slander as a way to flirt with Alexis. Alexis accused Jerry of flirting with her so that he could use her and she wouldn't be wise to his illegal activities. Jerry insisted he doesn't operate out of pure greed, and said he's out to protect the people he cares about. After he left, Jax stopped Jerry with a business proposition, and asked them to be partners. Jerry declined Jax's offer, leaving Jax speechless. Jax then told Alexis about how Jerry turned him down. Alexis told Jax she can't tell Jerry what they talked about, but asked Jax if he thinks it's possible his brother has changed.

At Kelly's, Mike offered his condolences to Spinelli about Georgie, and urged him to perk up. Spinelli looked at brochures Georgie had left at Kelly's for her semester abroad, and asked Mike if he could keep one. Then he asked Mike for a job. Mike asked Spinelli if he could look at his blender and see if he could get it fixed. Spinelli overheard Logan confronting Coop about seeing him at the pier the night before. Coop countered by asking Logan what HE was doing down at the docks at that hour.

Johnny went to his meeting and let his temper get the best of him. When he was disrespected Johnny pulled his gun to threaten one of the mobsters, but he was quickly subdued and humiliated in front of everyone. When he was ridiculed by the mobsters Johnny knocked out the guard who took his gun, reclaimed it, and threatened to kill the mobster who dissed him by calling him "Junior." "My name is John Zacchara, and I want to hear you say it," Johnny angrily demanded. Meanwhile, Jerry watched the activity through the window from outside — revealing himself to the audience as the mob kingpin Johnny was planning to make an alliance with.
