In 1994, supercouple Blair (Kassie DePaiva) and Todd (Roger Howarth) met for the first time at Rodi’s on One Life To Live. At the time, he was reeling from being dumped by Rebecca, and was still wearing an ankle monitor following his release from Statesville (he had recently been pardoned by the governor). For her part, Blair was smarting over Max. As Todd drowned his sorrows, Blair took the seat next to him at the bar. They struck up a conversation and commiserated about their lousy romantic situations, but the good vibes went south when Blair noticed his ankle bracelet and darted out.

In 2005, All My Children’s Greenlee (Rebecca Budig) learned that she had suffered a miscarriage. Not only did she lose the baby that she was expecting (whose father was Ryan Lavery), but Greenlee was rendered unable to carry a child to term. This led to a major storyline in which Kendall volunteered to serve as a surrogate for Greenlee, but wound up using her own egg in combination with Ryan's sperm, resulting in the birth of Kendall and Ryan's biological son, Spike.

In 2012, a back-in-town Jerry Jacks (Sebastian Roché) surprised Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) at Wyndemere on General Hospital after luring her there under false pretenses. Alexis was quite shocked, given that Jerry had been presumed dead. When the action resumed the following day, Jerry kissed Alexis — and she smacked him across the face.
