Eli Rocks & Anna's Eyes Roll.

Tuesday, July 29 2008
Anna gets an eyeful at Eli's concert, Jason finds the proof that he needed and both Jerry and Sam get new jobs.


Ric has just told Jason that Sonny is working with Karpov and Claudia can't believe her ears. Ric goes on about how Sonny dumped his business on Jason and then traded up. Jason tells him to stop because he doesn't believe a word of it. Ric contends that Sonny wants back into the business and has gotten in bed with the enemy. Jason doesn't reply, he only warns Claudia to be careful and then leaves. Claudia tells Ric that this was a perfect example of why she can't trust him. Ric says that he only wanted Jason to make a pre-emptive strike against Karpov and make it all easier on her family. Claudia doesn't see it that way, she says that he has brother issues and is dangerous. Ric reminds her that she should only be concerned about Johnny at this point. "Deal or no deal?" he asks. Claudia tells him that he can have whatever he wants if he gets Johnny off all charges.



When Jax returns to his hotel room after his meeting he finds Carly in his room waiting for him. She has lit candles and poured expensive wine. When there's a knock at the door she assumes it's the strawberries and cream that she ordered. Instead, she finds Giselle who steps into the room and heads straight for Jax. She asks if they are going to do their Crimson business or not? Carly says not, but Jax pushes her out and says that if she hurries she can get home in time to tuck Morgan in.



Robin and Patrick are backstage at Eli's concert waiting for Anna to show up. Eli arrives and asks where Anna is. Robin reminds him that her mother is too matronly for him these days so why does he care? Anna has appeared and wants to know the same thing. Eli tells her that he is crazy about her and wants a second chance. Anna makes him squirm a little and then says that she will consider it. Eli takes her in his arms and they stroll away together. Max shows up and tells Robin that Sonny's orders for him are to do whatever she wants. Robin is happy to hear it, and then tells him to kidnap Eli. As the music begins, Robin is confident that her plan will restore Anna's ego.



The concert gets underway and Eli thanks a special lady in the audience before he belts out his new song, "What's Victoria's Secret?" Anna looks on and thoroughly enjoys herself. After the song ends, the crowd goes nuts and Eli's hot young girlfriend rushes on the stage and hops into his arms. "This is war," Robin says as Anna's face falls.



In Manhattan, Lulu asks Sal if he took over their father's diner after he was killed. Sal says that his friends have taken care of them and Lourdes says that those friends aren't friends! Sal gets angry and says that they owe everything to these people. Lourdes turns to "Joe" and asks if Chicago is mob-free yet? He claims not to know and Lourdes spits out that it's "creepy weird" that Professor Segal used to teach a Zacchara. Sal tells Lourdes that they've imposed long enough and need to leave. After they're alone, Johnny tells Lulu that he always knew his family made its money from other people's pain, but he's going to change things as soon as they get home.



Jason goes home and Spinelli showers him with orange soda and chips in celebration. Jason thanks him but tells him about Ric's warning about Sonny and Karpov in business together. He orders Spinelli to get busy and look for a connection. Spinelli quickly finds a link between Karpov and a woman named Sasha, who was meeting with Sonny just the other day. He calls The Metro Court and a few moments later is able to show security footage of the meeting over his laptop. Jason has the proof he was afraid of finding.


As Jason's head reels, there's a knock on his door. Claudia has come to talk and Jason says he already knows all he needs to know. He sends Spinelli upstairs anyway. Claudia says that Sonny did indeed meet with Karpov's attorney the other night. She tells him that there's more to it and he needs to hear it before he puts a bullet in Sonny's head. She says that she went to Sonny and he assured her that he is only working to protect Jason, not hurt him. Jason tells her to stay out of it. Before she leaves, she warns Jason that he'll get backed into a corner very soon and he'll need to step up no matter what the cost.


In Montreal, Jax meets with Giselle and tells her that he won't do anything to sabotage Crimson but might consider helping to make Kate's success good for Couture as well. Just then Carly returns to Jax's room with a tight red dress on and drapes herself on her husband's bed to wait for him to finish his business. After Giselle leaves, Carly licks cream off of her fingers and Jax admits that she's hot. Then he turns on the TV.



Back at GH, Nadine, sure that Matt is listening, approaches Nikolas and asks for more money for her work at the clinic because she can't make ends meet. Nik doesn't want to play along so he walks over to the elevator. Nadine carries on the fight and follows him in. After the doors shut she hugs Nikolas in victory because she is certain that Matt took the bait.



Karpov meets with Jerry and compliments him for his various aliases over the past year. Jerry says that his services come at a high premium, but Karpov says that he's willing to pay for his discretion. He assures Jerry that he already has a big name on his payroll. He won't tell Jerry who it is, but says that he's moving pharmaceuticals into Port Charles. He asks Jerry if he's interested, but before Jerry can answer he gets a call from Alexis.



As Jerry charms the D.A., Karpov takes a few steps away and calls Sam. He offers her the job of captaining one of his ships. From her end, Sam says that as long as she's paid cash for every shipment she doesn't care what the load is. After she hangs up, she excitedly tells Lucky about her new job. Then she says that she has her first lead because she thinks she recognized a voice in the room with Karpov.


Next on General Hospital:

Diane warns Sonny that Jason could retaliate against him.

Sonny thinks that Jason would never go after him no matter what.

Jax finds himself handcuffed to his wife.

Lulu's visions of Logan's warning won't give her a break.

Anna isn't happy with Robin's fake kidnapping scheme.

Eli is a daddy?

Patrick warms up to Eli's young song.

Nikolas forbids Nadine to work undercover.

I'd like to say I have a comment about today's show, but I really don't. I mean, plenty of things happened, but none of them surprised me, or even entertained me for that matter! Oh, never mind, I loved how Jax turned on the TV!

Enjoyed Ric scenes with Claudia (hope Rick Hearst's contract is renewed - his character has so much potential)

Robin's kidnapping scheme was lame

Also liking Jason Cooks's character

Karpov s/l is intriguing

I found Giselle's treatment of Carly really rude and disrespectful. Whatever is going on in a marriage, doesn't mean the personal assistant can treat a spouse in that manner. Of Course Jax is responsible to protect his wife and he didn't.
I don't like what GH is doing with Sonny and Jason. They are setting up these two for a big fight and that worries me because Sonny and Jason are brothers!!
Sonny is not close to anyone, not his dad, and he doesn't get to see his kids. Kate is too busy being in Carly's business to take care of her man! Don't do it GH, no mob wars between Sonny and Jason.

Why not Claudia and Sonny?

I would have to agree that I hope TIIC are wise enough to renew Rick Hearst's contract. However, if Rick Hearst DOES leave, then I would rather see the character killed off. Certainly no point in recasting the character. If TIIC could NOT find a story to write for a multiple-Emmy winner - then I doubt very much that TIIC could come up with any kind of reasonable story for a new performer in the same role!

However, I do NOT want to see the character trashed, just because TIIC are not wise enough to come up with any more story for the character. I HATED what TIIC did to ZANDER, Stefan, RICK WEBBER, Lorenzo Alcazar and A.J. - to mention a few.

Unfortunately, at this point, it looks to me like TIIC are leaning in the direction of trashing the character of Ric Lansing as their 'parting gift' to their audience. In that case, I will cringe through the next few months - then I can take GH off my VCR program schedule for good and always!

Sincerely, Estrelita

It was such a relief today to see that for once Carly couldnt just sex her way out of the problems that she created...I am so glad that Jax is standing up to her and not just letting her back into his life... The best part of all is that Carly keeps doing the things that Jax warned her not to do....ie interfering in his business...god I really dont like Carlys character anymore and I use to love her...

If I was Carly, I would use the wine and pour it all over Jax. I hope she gets even with him. When he jumped out of the plane, it's too bad he didn't get stuck in a tree. That would have served him right. No matter what Carly does she will always be one of my favorite GH characters. If it wasn't for the character of Carly, GH would be boring.

GH has long lost it's appeal to me. I stopped taping a long time ago. There is no continuity for the storylines. They are chopped up and never an end to anything. The characters are no longer rootworthy and there is not one single couple to hold my attention for one moment. I do try to keep up with Sam McCall but she isnt on long enough to warrant me to watch the entire show. A little over a year ago, you couldnt keep me from watching GH come hell nor high water and now I could care less if it got cancelled or not. JMO

I'm right there with you. I don't even watch it anymore. I read the updates and go to yt and watch the parts I want to see, if they are any. I haven't yt'd a current show in over 2 months. I'm really tired of the same ole conversations going on. How manyt imes and how many ways can they rehash Logan's attach and death AND Carly and Jax's problems over Kate. It's all just a bit much for me. They say they want the ratings up .... well get to writing something that we want to see. They won best soap, but I'm kinda wondering how because it's just not happening for me.
I'm happier reading fan fic than watch gh right now.....maybe always.

I just youtubed and watched my jason parts for yesterday and today. Is it just me, or is he looking more buff in his tight tshirt? His arms are looking all muscular. You can see the muscles there. He really looks like he is working out. Do you think maybe he is getting ready for some Liason loving and some shirt taking off? I know there has been NO liason and NO Liz.....so I don't know....but he is definately getting buff. yt oild scenes when he use to wear tshirts tucked in and tighter tshirts. They ALWAYS showed off his chest trough them and look at him today. He doesn't tuck them in anymore but you could see his muscles through his shirt OR so I thought. What do you guys think?
