Falling on Deaf Ears.

Wednesday, July 29 2009
Lulu advises Maxie, Diane advises Spinelli, Ethan appeals to Rebecca, Edward and Rebecca are arrested, Liz worries for Nikolas, and Michael and Kristina are discovered missing.

Waiting at home for his mother to return from the hospital, Morgan gets an email from Michael telling him he has left town. Carly and Jax come in and Carly detects something is wrong with her son. Morgan hides the email and Jax and Morgan fawn over her. Carly still worries about Morgan and assures him Michael’s confession was wrong because he didn’t cause the accident. Carly wants to call Michael, but Morgan suggests he email him instead. Jax takes Carly upstairs and Morgan runs to his laptop.

Nikolas has trouble taking his shirt off in the stables because he was injured from a horseback riding fall. Elizabeth walks in. She tells him Alfred called her because he is concerned and she helps him off with his shirt. He expresses his disappointment of Rebecca already moving out of Wyndemere. Liz tends to Nikolas’ injuries as he explains what happened with Rebecca. Elizabeth dabs a scratch on his chest and they exchange uncomfortable looks.

At the Quartermaine’s, Tracy and Monica bicker over Michael and Edward walks in with Rebecca, saying she is moving in. Tracy and Monica debate Rebecca’s motives as Rebecca sees Ethan out on the patio.

Spinelli asks for Jason’s advice with Maxie, but Jason wants him to help with Michael. They discuss Kristina being a suspect in the crash and Spinelli wonders if Jason is going to throw Kristina under the bus for Michael. Jason says if they can prove Michael wasn’t near the scene of the accident, then they don’t have to bring Kristina into it.

Sam and Alexis argue over Kristina and Alexis accuses her of trying to score points with Jason. They argue and Molly comes out saying Kristina isn’t in her room and her bed is still made as if she didn’t sleep in it.


Nikolas comes to the Q’s to see Rebecca, but Edward says he has to go through him first. Nikolas accuses Edward of holding something over Rebecca and they engage in verbal battle.



Rebecca talks with Ethan and he gives her $500 as a down payment on the money he owes her. Rebecca doesn’t understand and thinks he’s trying to con her too. Ethan just thought they could pick up where they left off now that she’s away from Nikolas. She tells him they just teamed up to get her sister’s money and this isn't fun anymore. Ethan wonders if she ever thought that maybe he really cares about her and wants to be with her.


Lucky meets Liz at the hospital who tells him she’s worried about Nikolas. She fills him in on recent events and thinks Edward is blackmailing Rebecca to move in the mansion and thinks she has something to hide. Lucky isn’t so sure and they argue the point. Elizabeth thinks no matter how this plays out, Nikolas will get hurt.


As Spinelli looks on his laptop and muses over names for Maxie when they get married, Diane comes in wanting to talk with Jason about Michael. Since she’s there and Jason is not, Spinelli asks for her advice. He recounts his marriage proposal and Maxie’s confusing response. Diane thinks Maxie loves him, but is not ready to be married. Spinelli counters that Maxie is just wary of marriage and he wants to nudge her in the right direction. Diane tells him if he pushes too hard, she will push back so he should back off and let the idea of marriage simmer with her. Spinelli suddenly realizes an element of the proposal that has been overlooked.



Maxie goes to the police station and runs into Lulu who is looking for Lucky. Maxie worries to Lulu about Mac’s reaction to her wanting to marry Spinelli. Lulu tells Maxie to either tell Mac they are engaged or let Spinelli down. Maxie doesn’t want to hurt his feelings, but the thought of marriage is oppressive and she needs to focus on her career. Lulu says now all she has to do is tell Spinelli the answer is no. Maxie can’t bring herself to do that and Mac walks up. Before Maxie can talk to him about Spinelli, Alexis walks in and drags Mac away.


Mac tells Alexis they just put out an APB on Michael and the tests on the skid marks at the scene are inconclusive.


Jason comes to Carly’s and finds Morgan who tells him Michael ran away. Jason reads the email and Morgan worries if Carly finds out she could get sick again. Jason hopes to find Michael before anyone can tell Carly and assures Morgan he thinks Michael is innocent.


Alexis and Sam look for, but can’t find Kristina and Sam gets a call from Jason who tells her Michael is gone too. Alexis calls the police under Sam’s protests and Molly’s concern. Sam tells her sister the cops won't have to get involved if she finds Kristina first.

Sam packs some stuff and prepares to head out, as Jason does the same at his place. Spinelli finds a surveillance tape of a car identical to Michael’s on a southbound ramp, but Jason says it isn’t Michael's license plate.


With Rebecca in the car, Edward gets pulled over. The officer asks them to get out of the car and when Edward refuses, the cop pulls his gun.



Edward and Rebecca sit in a cell and Nikolas comes to see them. He says, “Well, well. It looks like Rebecca needed me after all.”


Morgan listens as Carly leaves a message for Michael. Carly worries about where he is and Alexis comes to the house. She tells Carly and Jax that Michael has left Port Charles and has taken Kristina with him.

Jason and Sam meet at the crash site and Jason fills her in on what Spinelli found. They get in the car and take off after the kids.


Mac returns to Maxie and Lulu and tells them about Michael. Maxie wishes him luck in finding the kids and starts to leave, but Lulu urges her to tell Mac. Maxie thinks Spinelli is too busy working for Jason on the case to worry about marrying her, but Lulu points to Spinelli who is all dressed up and nervously approaching Mac.


Next on General Hospital:

Claudia goes behind Sonny’s back.

Sam and Jason hit a snag during their search for Michael.

Jax has Alexis’ cars inspected.

Yay! Jasam scenes!
I hate how Alexis is treating Sam, and I agree Alexis does have high standards, why is it so hard to believe that Kristina isn't as perfect as Alexis thinks she is?


I really like the fact that they're showing the Quartermaines more, but I don't like the whole Rebecca/Ethan/Nikolas storyline. It got boring.


Anyways, have a great day!
Julie

Whew! Thank god for a little bit of comic relief today. After watching Claudia lose her baby, and Carly almost losing hers because she attempted to save Claudia. After watching Sonny put the make on Olivia while Claudia's being driven off the road. Watching Claudia throw out the only person who shows her any love(Johnny) and then connives to wipe Michael out because it appears he caused her to lose her baby even though his mother saved her life. Never, ever have I seen her thankful for ANYTHING. If there is no element of redemption for this woman,,,I hate to say it, but I'm over her. I love watching her, of course, but have zero faith in her.

I look forward to the humorous interludes amongst all the drama. The look on Rebecca's face when she looked out the Q's window. Alice dropping Tracy's food in her lap. Spinelli's names for people...Stone Cold, Valkerie, the White Knight & today The Brusque Purveyor of Justice. And best of all I loved Edward in jail with Rebecca only to have NICHOLAS come to the rescue. Especially after the way Edward treated him earlier. Now to more serious stuff. When is everyone going to realize that the more people tell other people that Carly can't know something, the sooner someone is going to come in and blurt it out? Also, I want to like Ethan. I really do. So I'll believe that he blackmailed Rebecca because he had hoped for a future with her & wanted to break up her & Nicholas. Warped? Yup1 But he has a father who raped a woman "he loved".

i absolutely loved today episode except for that alexis who shouldn`t have told carly that michael and kristina ran away. i think now that alexis is the one that cased claudia`s car accident. alexis is being really mean to sam and yes kristina too. i hope that jason and sam get back together and that they find michael and kristina before mac does. it`s all alexis`s fault. screw her. just kidding still like her but not really.

People, people Johnny as well as Claudia are responsible for Michael getting shot. When Sonny finally released Johnny he wanted revenge. Other than the fact that he did not know who was pulling the trigger he knew that a hit had been put out on Sonny. He was in on it. So how Olivia and everyone else can lay all blame on Claudia is mind boggling.

I too am too sick of Claudia which is sad because I love SB. I hope they are going to kill her off soon because this one bad act after another is getting to be a bit much.

I can’t wait for Alexis to be faced with the real Kristina. She is one of the most hypocritical people on the entire show. I too am wondering why Sam is badgering her about the accident. She has to know that, that is not the way to go.

How dare Alexis go to Carly with fake sympathy? She cannot stand that boy and would throw him to the wolves in a heartbeat to save Kristina.

Is Jax ever going to Man UP?

Nicholas, Rebecca and Ethan need to leave town permanently.

Sorry, gramar error. Johnny as well as Claudia is responsible for Michael getting shot.

When I was watching the show, it was interupted by severe weather reports so I missed when Morgan got the email, and some of the middle, but I'm caught up now.

How long will it take Alexis to realize Kristina isn't perfect. I hope she does soon.

I can't wit until tomorrow's episode.

Today was nice to get away from Claudia being so mad acting like shes the only one who's ever lost a baby. I know its sad and it hurts but I'm glad to have gotten away from it for a while. Spinelli had me dying today quickly falling off topic with jason to go back to maxie lol. I know Carly is suppose to keep calm but she cant because at every turn she's finding out something else that is stressful about people she cares about. Michael doesn't want to cause more stress that's just an excuse so he can do whatever he wants. He doesnt realize that him running away and staying away is causing more stress for his mother than doing good. Alexis makes me sick the sooner she gets out of her indenial about her wild teenage daughter the sooner she can be a better mother (imo) I get sick everytime someone other than her tells her about Kristina and she claims to not listen. Wouldnt you find it odd that your daughter is acting a little more stranger than usual its just so annoying. Edward its about time he got what he deserved I know your mr. Quartermaine and he is a vital citizine of port chuck but running around acting like your better than everyone else you deserve to be thrown in jail to get you to humble yourself. Rebecca and ethan - w/e. Nick just needs to relax let everything fall in place don't force things cause things won't work out that way. Other than that I hope sam and jason can work things out they were a nice couple before and they would be a nice couple again

A question to the posters... How is it that no one blames Sonny for Michael getting shot? Is it not Sonny's career CHOICE that ultimately put Michael in harms way? Does it really matter who pulled the trigger? Blah, blah, blah Sonny “quit” the mob. Like you can do that. Claudia on the other hand (who I really can’t stand with her constant need for recognition by someone on a power trip i.e Anthony, Sonny, Jerry) was raised by a psychopath who hated her very existence and her whishy-washy brother are just pawns.

OK.. let me have it. Being a mobster and killing whenever you want is ok. You are a superior person and can rule the world.

Alexis couldn't wait to go over to Carly's and tell her about the kids, could she. Now, she will lay this all on Michael, saying her influenced Kristina to go with him. I can't wait for Alexis to get knocked off her pedestal about herself and her daughter.

Nic and Liz?? I would rather see that than Nic with
Rebecca and her with Lucky. Speaking of Lucky, he is still clueless. He needs to listen to Liz.

So, what-will Spin now ask Mac for Maxie's hand in marriage?
She needs to just tell him no or insist on a very long engagement. But, if that happens, I can also see Spin constantly in her face about what she is doing and who she is with. Spin's behavior is seriously starting to border on control issues. Maxie needs to realize that what she is feeling is not love, it is fear. JMHO.

Loved seeing Edward and Rebecca sitting in jail. Nice to see someone he can't control.

Nice to have a day without Morticia, although I missed Johnny. Whoever said yesterday that she was a mean, spiteful, etc, was right. She considers what happened to Michael an accident, although she and her brother were responsible for the hit that was supposed to be for Sonny. What she can't grasp is that what happened to her could possibly be an accident too.

hi aussie, raggs, been, gen, TN, cynic, starlett, tipsy and anyone I missed.
