GH Recaps Week of Sep. 5, 2005
Friday, September 9, 2005
Nik and Courtney lingered outside Kelly’s for their first public appearance since The Grand Affair. Naturally Emily and Michael walked up on them smooching. At the Pizza Shack, Diego wondered why Maxie looked scared. At the PCPD, Durant plunked down Jason’s rap sheet: assault, murder, murder, murder. His snide (but true) comments made the Jasinator slam his head into the table. Ouch! Back at Castle Greyskull, Carly’s interior decoration got shot up and Sam ran to check on Ric. Oh, no, Ric was shot, too! (What’s Max, chopped liver?) Back at Kelly’s, Michael got huffy on Em’s behalf, but she told him not to get angry at Courtney OR Nikolas (whoa, step off the stake, St. Emily, Joan of Arc needs the wood). Back at the Shack, Jesse interrupted Maxie and Diego’s awkward small talk with his big shiny gun. Durant waved off the cops who came to the rescue and talked to Jason about Sonny, Carly, and the deal he’d put forth. “You’re his best friend, right?” he asked. “Where is Sonny Corinthos when you need him?” Diego defended himself to Maxie Drew and the Hardy Boys. But if he wasn’t The Stalker Freak, who was? Cut to Seth The Red Herring interrupting Brook’s beauty sleep. Carly ended up in Michael’s room with her Third Most Hated Person, Sam, and got a “Jason needs you” pep talk, complete with a side of blatant manipulation, while Ric and Max were wheeled in to GH. Sonny summoned Justus to get Jason freed so Jason could commence with the enemy-killing. Aw, how sweet and selfless! Then Sonny gave Max, his “best bodyguard” some props (we love Max, but come on, it’s not nice to lie). A weak Ric begged Sonny to take care of his child if he died — as a horrified Alexis looked on.
Lorenzo popped up for pizza with a side of paternal heroics. Diego told his “Pop” to back off because Jesse wasn’t out of line. On campus, The 40 Year Old RA continued to flirt with Brook in a creepy manner but it worked because she asked him out for late-night coffee. Sam passionately pleaded with Carly to save Jason and go to Durant. “I’ll do it. I’ll do this for Jason,” Carly agreed. Across town, Jason was puzzled by the total lack of a family resemblance to his legal eagle cousin Justus and even more puzzled by Justus telling him Sonny’s house got shot up and Sonny wanted him to retaliate. Alexis reassured Ric before his surgery and then blasted Sonny for his mad recruitment skillz and lousy benefits program. “Now that he’s taken a bullet for you, he’s earned your respect?” On a humanitarian roll, Sonny suggested she go convince Ric she’s worth living for rather than taking her anger out on him. Sam began to guide Carly out, but the tired Carly murmured, “Maybe if I just rest for a little while, I could leave this house.” Would Jason want her to rest? Well, yes. So, Sam picked up the Carly-sitting duties and back upstairs they went. Diego pointed out that the Junior Detectives needed to catch TSF no matter what. Lorenzo left and Diego warned Jesse, “You better catch the guy before I do,” in a way that would’ve done papi proud. At GH, Reese lurked around Ric’s room and when Alexis called her on being the Queen of Entitlement, Reese lashed out like she’d known Sonny and Ric since longer than February and told Alexis what her own husband wanted from life. Sonny came home to a waiting Lorenzo, who assured him it was Ruiz’s handiwork that had wrecked things. For once, Sonny believed him. “Even you wouldn’t do this or order this.” But if it ever happened again, “it’s on you and I’ll be ready.”
At Kelly’s, Emily put on a brave face for Lucky, but when she stepped away so Mike could tell her to get Michael safely to the hotel, Michael confided in Lucky that Em was in bad shape. “You’re her oldest best friend, right? You’ve got to do something.” Lucky pulled an Incredible Hulk, except without turning green or ripping his clothes (darn!) and walked outside, furiously ripping Nik’s cell phone away from him and telling him off. “I want you to stop acting like a fool,” Lucky stormed, ticked that he’d heard about Em’s pain from a nine-year-old. He accused his bro of dumping Em so he could get laid. Haarsh! Courtney jumped to Nik’s defense and Lucky coldly commented on her reputation for dumping men for bigger fish. When he called her a slut, Nikolas punched Lucky out. A pj-clad Maxie climbed into bed in her dorm and then the door began to open ominously. Ooo. Reese was starting to set off warning bells for Alexis, but before they could ring out “she slept with your hubby” in Morse code, Ric was wheeled in. Justus brought Jason home and Sonny made hollow small talk about Jason’s health before getting to the important killing stuff. Sonny knew he was all mixed up, but he still had his instincts, right? “They came into my home! Where I live!” Sonny yelled at the brain-damaged, seizure-ridden amnesiac. He was setting up a meeting with Manny Ruiz and wanted Jason to go and take care of it. “You want me to kill him?” Jason surmised, looking none-to-happy. “I’m not killing anyone for you.” Gasp!
