I loved today FOR SO MANY REASONS!!!!

Sonny was amazing. I really loved him today. MB hasn't acted with so much convincing emotion and anger like that in a long time. I know its backwards, but I actually liked Sonny today. There have been days when he hasn't annoyed me nearly as much in the recent months, but I liked him today. I know most people probably hate him even more from this episode because he was just expressing raw anger, like he does most of the time. Anger that is misplaced or ugly and unwatchable. But today he went beyond that for me.

Yes he demonstrated ferocity and emotion, but most of the time he does it without you really comprehending to the fullest extent what his motivation is behind it. He'll shout and yell and act self-righteous, but it always causes me to wonder why. Why does he act like that? On those days, I have no idea what is going on in his mind, and on those days, the unwatchable factor forces me to not care. But today, I knew why he was so angry, and I knew why he was shouting. Today I was rooting him on and loving everything he said. Today was a day that I empathized with him, and agreed with the things he told to Claudia.

On top of all this, he did it in front of all of Port Charles. Everyone was there, and everyone's reactions were amazing and necessary for Sonny's speech to be successfully jaw-dropping. Him outing Jax's knowledge of the shooting. How about the way Sonny said, "yes, Jerry Jax." Beautifully acted. Then there was Carly devastated from realizing Jax's secret, Jason witnessing the secret he suspected of Claudia all along, finally coming out, Kristina seeing a different side of Sonny, causing her to think of him as a "monster," Michael feeling bad and guilty and thinking he could have stopped all of the chaos, and Johnny's commitment to saving his sister, however undeserving she may be. Luke even getting involved in the story, but trying to use his contacts to find out where his niece was taken. I like them reminding us that they are related.

Have I mentioned Claudia yet? Her reaction to him outing her like that was amazing acting on SJB's part. The crying, and pleading for understanding was sensationally acted, and I believed it all. But on top of all this, I can't get over Maurice's awesome performance. His apology for not believing or trusting everyone who ever urged him to not to put faith in the empty words Claudia uttered. His apology for not trusting his own instincts. And none of this post has even touched upon Claudia taking Carly hostage. Those scenes in the car were amazing. I literally cried. OMG ITS ON AGAIN... okay, sorry. Anyways, the episode was so wonderfully soapy, I just can't get over it.

btw, I also loved Dante and Lulu's shared glances, and the way he looked in that black suit.



(sorry this post was so long, and a little jumbled, I just was so excited about all of this)

Excellent post, my SFFF You basically said all the stuff that I was too lazy to type... ITA with you about being able to empathize with Sonny today because you can see what's fueling his intense emotions. I still see the hypocrisy of him condemning Claudia even after what he had done to Johnny, but I understand it. His son got shot, even though that wasn't her intention, it's obviously going to make him beyond angry. And the worst part - she played him for a fool... married him and lied and schemed to cover it up, and he didn't believe his friends and trusted her anyway, and to find out that he was wrong... of course he's going to explode... and it was AMAZING when he did. All of the actors did a phenomenal job, and I'm so looking forward to Monday and picking up where this left off... especially with Claudia and Carly in the car.

i'm in complete agreement. today was amazing. MB and IR were both outstanding. I actually teared up when Sonny heard Kristina call him a "monster." I also gasped aloud when Michael came off the elevator and heard Jax. Both of those moments were heartbreaking. I really hope they keep this intensity up with the Dante/Sonny storyline. I would love to see Dante have Sonnyesque moment at his mother when he finds out the truth. I can't wait for Monday! I'll be watching replays all weekend.

A few months ago, Kristina was driving on a road without her license and had just had a fight with her boyfriend, Kiefer. She was really upset and shouldn't have been driving. A pregnant Claudia was driving in the opposite direction. Somehow Kristina wasn't paying attention or was just so upset that she ended up other side of the road, forcing Claudia to swerve off the road. The car rolled a couple times, Carly found Claudia, pulled her out, and an ambulance took her to the hospital. The baby died due to trauma.
