General Hospital Recaps
GH Week of January 14, 2008
Monday
At the coffeehouse, Max reported to Jason that Anthony Zacchara was
recovering, both mentally and physically. Jason decided to see for himself.
He ordered Max to wake up Spinelli and have him look into Z’s medical
history. Jason went to see Anthony, and reported to the mob boss that his
son, Johnny, was in over his head. Anthony had confidence in his son’s
abilities. Jason asked about Moreau but Anthony said he never heard of him.
He also told Jason that he didn’t kill Emily.
At Crimson Pointe, Trevor advised Johnny that they need to show drug kingpin
Moreau that they can be trusted. Johnny flipped, accusing Moreau of
kidnapping Lulu. Johnny vowed to find Lulu and free her. He also suggested
that maybe Trevor, not Sonny, ordered the two hits in an effort to start a
mob war. Trevor resented the accusation.
At the monastery, the monks tried to keep Lulu calm. She threw food at them
and demanded to go home. When she spotted a mouse on the floor, she screamed
and jumped on the cot, which collapsed. After banging and screaming on the
door to no avail, she noticed a bit of the wall crumbling.
At G.H., Logan went to see Luke and Tracy informed him her husband was
missing again. Meanwhile, Mayor Floyd was admitted in a skateboarding
accident. Just then, Joe and his pregnant wife Angie returned for treatment
and when Dr. Ford tried to turn him away again, he revealed a bomb strapped
around his waist. Angie asked her distraught husband to go home but he
demanded someone care for her, health insurance or no health insurance. Just
then, Sam entered. “Joe?” she asked. Sam explained that Joe was a mechanic
she knows and that he’s a good guy. As the hostages argued amongst
themselves, Angie collapsed on the floor. Epiphany stood up to Dr. Ford and
treated the sick woman.
At Elizabeth’s house, Liz was frantic when she got locked outside while a
fire raged in her home where Jake lay in his crib. Liz grabbed a chair and
broke the window. As she climbed through, Liz cut her leg on a shard of
glass. She ran upstairs and grabbed Jake from his crib and made it outside
with the baby. Liz left Cameron with a neighbor and raced the baby to the
hospital.
Tracy went to Jake’s to find Luke. He wasn’t there, so she decided to have a
few drinks. Jerry was at a nearby table and Jax (Ingo Rademacher's temporary
recast, Gideon Emery) showed up to chat with his brother. He asked what the
big deal was Jerry was working on, unaware that his brother was actually
Moreau. Jax confided in his brother that he and Carly are trying to have a
baby but things between them recently have been stressful. A tipsy Tracy
told Jax that if he runs into Luke, to tell him that he’s a dead man. Just
then, Tracy collapsed and Jax caught her. Jerry advised Jax to take a trip
with Carly and get away in order to make a baby. Jerry left, and called a
mystery person with a tattoo on his back.
Johnny met up with Logan. The adversaries compared notes and agreed to work
together to find Lulu. Meanwhile, Max woke up Spinelli with his new
instructions. Spinelli cursed how the cold medicine knocked him out. He
drank coffee and aligned his chakras to wake up. Spinelli checked his phone
and got Lulu’s message. Just then, Logan entered and grabbed Spinelli in
order to help him and Johnny find Lulu.
Jason was frantic when he got to Liz’s house and saw the firemen. The
neighbor told Jason that Liz saved Jake and rushed him to the hospital....
Trevor went to the hospital to see Anthony.... Liz and Jake raced into the
E.R. Sam told her to run but it was too late. Bomb-toting Joe said Liz
wasn’t going anywhere.
Tuesday
In her hotel room, Sonny and Kate relished being in each other's company and in New York.
However, Kate reminded him of the restraining order and
suggested that he go. Sonny said no way. Just then, Kate's friend Julius
interrupted the lovers. Julius wanted to accompany Kate to the party
announcing her return to Couture but she told him she was skipping it. She
also swore Julius to secrecy regarding Sonny's presence. A leering Julius
agreed and left. Shortly after, a cop arrived at Kate's door investigating a
Sonny sighting. He demanded to search her room and spotted room service for
two. Just then, Julius burst in and covered for Kate. The pair talked the
talk and got the cop to split. Sonny and Kate were most grateful but
Julius warned Sonny not to hurt Kate. After Julius left, Sonny told Kate he
wanted to take her someplace.
At G.H., Elizabeth begged Joe the mad bomber to let a doctor look at Jake.
He wasn't sympathetic. Sam persuaded Joe to let a doctor examine the baby.
Shortly afterward, Jason burst into the E.R. and Joe demanded to know what
his relationship was to Liz's baby. Joe stripped Jason of his weapon and
Monica warned the bomber that people near Jason tend to die so he'd better
watch out.
In the locker room, Robin and Patrick discussed losing a patient in the O.R.
Robin thought there was more to the patient's death than meets the eye. She
then told Patrick that he hurt Leyla and when it comes to women, he's as
dumb as a box of rocks. The two argued and Robin mentioned that she has
chosen a sperm donor in her quest to get pregnant.
At G.H., Nik wondered aloud with Emily if he could have passed the tumor
along to Spencer. When Patrick, Robin and Leyla arrived to discuss his
condition, Nik flew into a rage and pushed Robin, who fell to the ground.
He soon apologized; Robin understood that he wasn't himself. Then Nik lamented
to Emily about his condition while Robin told Patrick to back off and stop babying her.
The pair got back to business and Patrick came up with the idea of testing Nik's blood
during one of his rages to see if there is a notable difference.
At the Lake House, Alexis and Diane laughed about their biker bar adventure,
as Ric stared on in amazement. After Diane left, a sad sack Ric told Alexis
he was leaving town for a little while. He acknowledged that his hatred of
Sonny is detrimental to his own life. He also mentioned that Skye left town.
Ric said that he was taking a leave from work and that she'd be taking her
old job back as D.A.
At G.H., Cassius bandaged Liz's wounded leg. Epiphany told her that Jason
was here in order to calm her down.... As Joe confided his circumstances to
Jason, Angie told Kelly that Joe really is a good man.... When Mayor Floyd
failed in sneaking up on the bomber, an agitated Joe grabbed Monica and
taunted Jason.... In the lab, Nadine asked Nik if, when he's talking to himself,
he's really talking to Emily.
Mayor Floyd managed to call Scott on his cell and alert him to the hostage
situation. Scott sought out Lucky and briefed him on the hostage crisis at
the hospital. He mentioned that Jason was among the hostages. A rifle-toting
Lucky came into GH through the stairwell and spied on Joe. He radioed Scott
that he felt he could take Joe out, unaware that if Joe let go of the
detonator, the E.R. would explode.
Wednesday
Sonny took Kate on a surprise date — to Bensonhurst. They ended up at
Fortunato's, one of their favorite old haunts. Kate and Sonny fondly
recalled their first date at the restaurant. ("Mary Manucci did my hair,"
marveled Kate.) Sonny brought up the man who got him into the business, Joe
Scully, and how he avoided Kate after that night to keep her away from
Scully's dangerous business. Sonny stressed that this night was not to be
about bad memories. They toasted to their shared past.
A bickering Logan, Johnny and Spinelli reluctantly joined forced to save
Lulu. They listened to her last phone message to Spinelli and tried to
decipher her location from the clues she left them. After some cyber
sleuthing, the boys realized Lulu was being held prisoner at a monetary
outside of town. Spinelli disguised himself as a monk and snuck into the
structure.
At the monetary, a clever Lulu started digging at the crumbling wall of her
locked room and managed to avoid detection from the monk guarding her.
Afterward, Lulu managed to crawl through the hole she made and found a
tunnel.
In the lab, Nadine told Nikolas there's nothing wrong with talking to Emily
and it seems to bring out the best in him. Afterward, Nikolas and Emily
shared a tearful exchange. She cried that she's not real and he needs to
move on. Nik replied that there is no moving on without her and she’s the
next best thing to being real and he doesn't want that to change.
In the E.R., an agitated Joe threw Monica aside and grabbed Sam instead.
Lucky told Scott that he couldn't get a clear shot at the bomber because
Jason was in the way. Scott said he should still go for it and commented
that, "Accidents happen." During Jason and the bomber’s exchange, Lucky
found out that Elizabeth and Jake were also present and that if Joe takes
his finger off the detonator, they all go "Boom!" Lucky opted not to fire a
shot and opted for a new plan.
On the 10th floor of G.H., Patrick and Robin argued over his theory to take
Nikolas's blood during a rage episode. Robin reluctantly agreed to go along
with the plan. Patrick went to see Nik and provoked him, putting himself in
harm's way when Nik attacked. Orderlies were able to draw blood but Nik
escaped their grasp and stormed off.
As Kelly examined the pregnant Angie, a monitor startled people, indicating
that the baby was in trouble. Joe grabbed Monica again and started shouting
that somebody had better do something fast. It was actually Jake's monitor,
but Epiphany managed to revive the child with CPR. Leo emerged and said
Elizabeth is losing blood and needs surgery. Jason grabbed Monica away from
Joe and shoved her toward Leo, shouting, "Go! Go!" Leo brought Monica to
Liz's side and said she needs surgery. Monica expressed reluctance, pointing
out she hasn’t been in an O.R. since her incident during Luke’s bypass. Leo
told her it was time to get back on the horse. Monica's hands were shaky and
after pulling a piece of glass out of Liz's leg, she left Leo to finish the
procedure. Later, Liz recovered to find Lucky standing over her with a plan
to sneak her out of the hospital. "Take Jake first," she begged.
On the docks, Ric dropped the bombshell on Trevor that he now owned
Alcazar's piers after Skye gave them to him before leaving town. "You must
be better in bed than I thought," Trevor spewed. Ric informed his father
that he intends on keeping the coveted real estate for himself.
Mac and the police arrived on the hostage scene and chastised Scott for
taking orders from the mayor. "We're going to do things my way," Mac
shouted. Inside, an enraged Nikolas made his way down to the E.R., where he
threatened Joe the bomber. "No!" screamed Sam.
Thursday
Carly was frustrated that Diane wasn't returning her calls and told Jax she
needed to find another lawyer for Jason. However, when Jax asked why Jason needed a lawyer, Carly clammed up. Jax was angry, even though Carly promised she'd explain later. Jax refused to let her leave the house, so Carly spilled about Jason fathering Jake. Jax then asked his wife why she felt the matter was any of her business. He suggested they have their own baby and she stop worrying about Jake. Carly then confessed that she has been trying to get preggers since December but has had no luck. Jax was touched and said she shouldn't have kept all that to herself. The pair then decided to try again to make a baby.
At Fortunato's, Sonny and Kate's old pal, Moose, came by the table and welcomed Sonny home. He thought he recognized Kate but she played it off and kept quiet about her origins. Afterward, Kate confessed that she never felt like herself in the old neighborhood and that she escaped because she felt she had no future there. Sonny then coaxed her into getting her fortune from the fortune telling machine, just as she did the night of her first date.
Inside the monastery tunnels, as Lulu wandered in search of escape, Spinelli managed to sneak into the room where Lulu was being held. He saw she was gone, then spotted the hole in the wall. The guard came in and Spinelli knocked out the monk.
In the E.R., Jason punched out a raging Nikolas before he could provoke Joe the bomber. Meanwhile, Angie panicked when Kelly told her that her baby was in distress, as she feared Joe's reaction. Kelly barked at Joe that he needed to lighten up and allow her to perform more tests. Joe agreed and opened up about his fears to Sam as Jason listened in.... Monica snuck away to the supply closet and had a swig from a hidden flask. She then emptied a water bottle and filled it with the contents of her flask.
Outside the monastery, Johnny and Logan doubted Spinelli's ability to find
Lulu and decided to split up and look for another way into the structure.
Johnny found his way into the tunnels and located Lulu, but injured his leg when he fell on a razor-sharp bayonette. Lulu helped him up. The duo found an old smugglers closet in the tunnels but inadvertently got locked in.
Acting on a hunch, Jason grabbed the detonator away from Joe and it turned out, his hunch was right — the bomb was a fake. Just then, Mac and the cops rushed in and Joe was arrested and taken away. He asked Sam to let Angie know he loved her. Dr. Ford was unsympathetic and ordered Angie to be take to County Hospital, since she had no insurance. As a benefactor of G.H., Nikolas ordered Ford to admit the patient. He begrudgingly complied.
Afterward, Nadine's words cajoled Nik into admitting himself as well so
Patrick could run his tests. Edward thanked Jason for his quick thinking while Monica avoided him.... Epiphany snuck away and cried and reluctantly allowed Cassius to console her.... Jason went to look in on Liz and Jake and found them cooing together with Lucky.
Friday
In the GH locker room, a towel-clad Patrick emerged from the showers and
chastised Robin for being out of bed after collapsing earlier. After Robin
was short with him, Patrick got a chilly reception from Leyla, as well.
Later, Kelly asked Robin how she was feeling. She said she was fine and
mentioned that she had selected a sperm donor.
At Fortunato’s in Bensonhurst, Sonny refused to let Kate see his fortune
from the fortune-telling machine. The couple then left the restaurant and
went to their favorite old movie theater. Kate was charmed. “It ain’t over
yet,” smiled Sonny. Sonny mentioned he missed Connie and wondered what she’d
think of Kate. When Kate excused herself, Sonny fondled a ring box. He then
spotted a young couple who reminded him of he and Kate at their age.
Afterward, Sonny and Kate made out during the movie and the film broke. Kate
then saw the couple and recalled their youth, also. Later, as they strolled
down the street, Sonny pointed out they were at the site where they were
supposed to run away together as kids but Kate never showed.
In his hospital room, Nadine caught Nikolas talking to Emily but he lied and
said he was talking to himself. After Nadine went off duty, Nik told Em that
he’s miserable without her. Patrick returned with Nik’s test results and
asked if he was hallucinating.
Jerry placed a call to the mystery person with a tattoo. He relayed
information about an incoming shipment on a Zacchara vessel which will be
crossing through Corinthos-controlled waters. The mystery person then asked
about G.H. personnel.
At the monastery, Lulu pressed Johnny for answers while they were trapped in
the storage closet. Johnny told her about an incoming shipment which he
planned to intercept. Johnny gave Lulu his jacket to keep warm and then they
swigged some old booze. After a while, Lulu started feeling the effects of
the booze. Then, she and Johnny shared a kiss. Johnny pushed her away and
said, "We can’t do this." Lulu denied throwing herself at him. Johnny said
he was just trying to protect her from him. Just then, Spinelli arrived and
rescued the pair.
Leyla met up with Nadine for drinks at Jake’s and bemoaned the end of her
relationship with Patrick. Nadine told her that she should take control when
it came to Patrick. Leyla took the advice and returned to the hospital,
where she surprised Patrick in lingerie. She led him into the on-call room
where they quickly got busy. Post-coitus, Leyla told Patrick that their sex
was pleasurable but it meant nothing to her. She dressed and left.
Leyla retuned to Nadine and said, "Now I’m that kind of girl." ... Kelly
informed Robin that she was pregnant. Robin was dumfounded.... Johnny stayed
behind while Spinelli took Lulu to Logan. When Lulu ran to Logan, she
discovered he was being held at gunpoint by a monk.... Sonny got down on one
knee in front of Kate. "What are you doing?” she asked. "What do you think
I'm doing?" he replied.
