Jack Won't Turn On Greenlee

Tuesday, August 14 2007
Kendall wants Jack to have Greenlee arrested; Zach and Ryan argue. Greenlee wants absolution. Annie leaves on a secret mission.


Is Greenlee sorry?

At The Comeback an obviously drunken Greenlee continues her flirting with Wheeler, much to Aidan's chagrin. They get ready to leave but before they get out the door he slugs Wheeler, dropping him to the floor! Aidan pulls Greenlee from the bar but she refuses to leave, preferring instead to stumble around and try to order another drink. Aidan keeps trying to pull her away but she won't go. She rants about Wheeler, her perfect date, and soon begins talking about everyone else in town. When she mentions Kendall, her stomach turns and she runs, throwing up in the bushes! Aidan sits with her at an outside table and asks Greenlee what prompted her latest drinking binge. She tells him about the showdown with Jonathan. She wonders why Aidan keeps hanging around her and offers to double whatever Zach is paying to get him to leave her alone! Aidan turns down the offer, telling her that Zach isn't paying her for this. Aidan brings her some water as Greenlee wonders what exactly his game plan is at this point and why he hasn't had her arrested yet. "Maybe because you're doing a better job of punishing yourself," he says. Aidan tells Greenlee that she won't feel free until she confesses everything that she did but she refuses, insisting there is another way of fixing the situation. Aidan leaves Greenlee to think about things alone.



What is Annie's secret?

At Fusion, Annie tries to focus on work rather than the drama in her personal life but quickly thoughts of Spike and Ian take over. Di tells her not to worry about work, to let the others do that, and instead go back to her family. But Annie can't. She feels like she needs to act, to do something. Her phone rings, interrupting them, but it is a wrong number and she is disappointed. Di wonders who she hoped that call would be from. "I called him. I had to, for Spike," she says, shocking Di who obviously knows what Annie is taking about. She tells Di she didn't want to call "him" but didn't feel she had a choice because she needed to help Ryan! Di tells Annie that she needs to tell Ryan everything but Annie doesn't feel like she can yet. Instead, she tells Di that she needs to go! Di leaves. As soon as she is alone Annie calls the airlines to make a last minute reservation.



Zach knows he is in the right.

In a waiting area Ryan and Zach talk about the last few days. Ryan tells Zach about a plan to fund a few new hearing-impaired research startups and Zach offers to help. Ryan turns to him and asks what is really going on with Greenlee. Zach skirts the issue but Ryan won't let it drop which only serves to annoy Zach further. He tells Ryan that Greens is gone and tells Ryan to drop it but he won't. Zach makes up a story about wanting to throw Greenlee off a bridge! He then says simply that she has been "taken care of" and tells Ryan to back off! He doesn't and keeps pushing Zach, who tells him exactly what he thinks: that Ryan is the root of all of these problems because of the way he treated Greens in the past! Ryan turns things around, blaming Zach for the blackout and saying that is what sent Greens over the edge. "Take a look in the mirror. You are to blame," Ryan says. Zach defends his actions, telling Ryan that he protected his family. Emma arrives with Rachel. Zach leaves. Emma asks Ryan why he and Zach were yelling and he explains that they were simply disagreeing. He decides to call Annie to see about dinner but she doesn't answer.



Can Jack turn on Greenlee?

Bianca calls Kendall and is stunned to learn that Spike's deafness is permanent. She is even more stunned when Kendall tells her to stay in Paris rather that returning to Pine Valley. Kendall goes on to tell her that Spike isn't really deaf forever, because they will find a cure for him. As they talk, Kendall goes on and on about Spike but says very little about Ian. Binks picks up on that and asks about the new baby, surprised to learn that Kendall is spending the bulk of her time with Spike rather than the new baby. Kendall hangs up after a while. Jack arrives and reaches out to Kendall. They talk about Spike and Kendall tells him she needs to get Spike to another facility - one that doesn't insist on more surgeries for him! Jack reminds her that Joe and the other doctors saved Spike's and Ian's lives, calming her down. He asks if there is anything else he can do. "You can have Greenlee arrested," Kendall says! Jack tells Kendall there isn't enough evidence to arrest Greens but Kendall doesn't want to hear it. When Jack turns to leave she stops him, insisting that Greenlee needs to be punished for what she did to Spike. She plays the dad card, telling Jack that she needs him, as her father, as much or more than Greens does! Emotionally Jack tells Kendall that he doesn't know if he can do it. "Then you can't help me at all," she says. Jack leaves. A while later Zach comes in and sees Kendall sleeping in a chair. He picks up the boy, who is awake, and talks to him for a while. Zach decides it's time for the boys to meet and takes Spike down the hall. He introduces the boys through the glass as Jack watches.



Kendall dreams of a perfect family.

Back in the hospital room, Kendall dreams about Spike and Ian, who are both growing and perfect. She, Zach and the boys are having a picnic in the park when Spike begins to sing. Greenlee shows up, telling Kendall that she wants her life - her entire life. Kendall stands, ready to take on Greenlee - and stabs a knife into her side! Greenlee falls to the ground! Kendall wakes to find Greenlee standing over her in the hospital room!


Next on AMC:

Jonathan and Ava are dating. Kendall confronts Greenlee. Ryan wants to know where Annie disappeared to.

why is Kendall spending more time with Spike then Ian? Is this going to go somewhere - I understand that Kendall has had spike longer, but why not spend sometime with Ian. When I had my twins, they were both in CICU and I remember having to go from one crib to another and feeling that guilt of not spending enough time with each one - they couldn't be together because of all the breathing machines, but just feeling that guilt was awful.

Kendall is spending too much time on only spike, what about Ian, Spike is only deaf, he's still alive she should be greatful for that. this story line is making kendall look like a bad mother. I think Ian needs more of her time.

I love how Zach took Spike to meet his brother - if men in real life could be more like Zach that would be great

OK! OK! Kendall's being too obsessive here! Yes, I want Greenlee arrested too, she should pay for all the drama she caused.
My Granddad would tell Kendall that everything works out for the best and that if it's meant for spike to hear again, he will hear. I know because I was born blind, and that's what Granddad told my Mom.

RICHIE--you're exactly right. Why are they acting like being deaf is the end of the world? It's not, millions upon millions of people have all kinds of disabilities and deal with them daily. It seems almost like they're all saying if you have a disability you're not as good as others and life is therefore miserable forever. That's a horrible message to give a child if you truly, truly love them. Start learning ASL and get on with, at least your children are still ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UUUMmmmm?? What the hell??? I thought Bianca was going to reveal something or anything good!! How disappointing!! Kendall does need to go see her newborn baby,Ian.Did she forget she just gave birth to him??

I don't think Kendall's actions are unreasonable. She is worried about Spike because she is thinking about what he's feeling, and how scared and confused he must be. She will come around and then feel guilty about Ian. I'm sure she already does but I guess she knows that Zach is such a great dad so maybe she feels as though she doesn't have to worry about him as much. Who knows?! This whole storyline makes me so sad.

Kendall needs to be with Ian and Zach...they both need her now..Spike's ordeal is over for the moment and now she needs to see to Ian. I am sure Zach is aware of her not wanting to see and feed Ian. He has bonded with him and now she needs to also. I really dont know what I would do under those conditions, but now is the time for Kendall to move forward with her babies and Zach. Ryan has Annie to help him. I really feel for Zach..he has alot on his shoulders. I can understand where Jack is...he should support Greenlee, but not DEFEND her. bad choice there if he does...Jack needs to be concerned as to what Jonathan might do to Greenlee...Bianca needs to come home and talk and be with Kendall..she really needs her now..

I know what Greenlee did was wrong. But, Jack is her father and he needs to get his daughter some professinal help. Erica is crazy to think that he's going to have is daughter arrested. After all Erica she is his blood and you're not!!

Greenlee does need to be punished - she tried to take Spike and it ended up being the second worst decision she ever made - the first - marrying Ryan
