Jerry's Back and Alexis Confesses.

Thursday, July 30 2009
Claudia makes a call, tests are run on Alexis' cars, Jason and Sam breakdown, Michael and Kristina form a plan and Edward and Rebecca are released from jail.


Jason and Sam stall out on their way to find Michael and Kristina and they look under the hood and find something odd. Sam recalls Spinelli tinkering earlier and thinks he tried to turn Jason’s truck into a homemade hybrid.



Kristina and Michael come to a roadside restaurant that is locked so Michael starts to break in.



Alexis and Carly argue over Michael and Kristina being missing. Jax tries to maintain some peace, but Carly accuses Alexis of using Michael to cover her tracks. They continue to play verbal ping pong and Alexis asks Jax to get Carly to cooperate in getting their children home and storms out. Carly yells at Jax for not being on her side.



Sonny walks in Claudia’s hospital room and sees her trying to get ready to leave. He says it’s too soon and she needs to recover, but she isn’t sure how to recover from her baby dying. Sonny says she needs to deal with her loss and she cries over how painful her grief is. Sonny is grieving too, but Claudia questions it wondering if he’s just saying what she wants to hear so she doesn’t implicate Michael. Sonny just wants this whole thing to be over and asks her to back up Carly’s story.


Alexis comes to see Sonny and Claudia and tells them that Michael has taken Kristina on the run.


In jail, Edward tells Nikolas to leave and Lucky walks up saying they contacted Tracy about Edward and Rebecca getting arrested, but she responded, “Oh goodie. Let them rot.”


Spinelli tries to talk to Mac, but he's busy and tries to blows him off. He stops in his tracks though when Spinelli says he has important things to talk to him about Maxie. Spinelli starts to ask for permission to marry Maxie, but she intervenes and then Jason calls yelling at Spinelli for what he did to his car.

Kristina makes some fish tacos and she and Michael discuss them running away and if Michael really ran Claudia off the road. Michael is positive he did it and thinks leaving Port Charles was the right thing to do. They decide to go to Mexico and get jobs. Michael understands if she doesn’t want to go because she's not the one who caused the accident. Kristina looks guilty and drops something.

Nikolas tells Rebecca he can have her out of jail in ten minutes but she won’t leave Edward. Edward says Rebecca has shown more loyalty in the short amount of time he’s known her, than Tracy ever has. Lucky returns and lets them out because they realized Michael switched their license plates when he went on the road.

Over the phone, an unsure Spinelli tries to talk Sam and Jason through dismantling the hybrid mechanism, but Jason can’t figure out his instructions.

Carly and Jax argue over Michael and she asks him to believe that the car she saw wasn’t Michael’s. Jax does believe her and thinks he has a way to prove it.


At the mansion, Tracy orders Alice around who tells her she’s writing her memoirs and can’t wait for Tracy to read a couple of specific chapters. As Tracy talks about how Rebecca is conning the family, Edward, Rebecca and Nikolas return. Rebecca says the extra time they had in jail gave them a chance to bond and she thanks Tracy for not bailing them out. They all bicker for a bit and Nikolas asks Rebecca to leave with him for a little while. Edward says no, Rebecca says she would love to and Tracy says, “Ooh! Cassadines: 1 - nothing!”



Sonny goes to see Carly and thinks Jason will be able to talk their son into coming home. They talk about Claudia and Sonny says he never should have bought Michael the car and Carly says she shouldn’t have given him a license, but he didn’t cause the accident. Sonny thinks he failed both of his children again. Sonny worries something will happen to his kids before they can bring them home.



In the interrogation room, Jax asks Mac to look at things as a father. Diane comes in and gives Mac a court order for both vehicles owned by Alexis. Both Jax and Diane worry their friendships with Alexis are on the line.


As Spinelli feels confident over fixing Jason’s car and making it more earth friendly, he sets out to talk to Mac, but Lulu and Maxie prevent him from doing so.


Michael asks Kristina what’s wrong and she chalks it up to not sleeping because she’s worried about everyone. Michael tells her she doesn’t have to get mixed up in all this, but Kristina is happy to be away because she doesn’t have to prove herself to anyone. She tells her brother they are in this together.


Jason continues to work on the car, as Spinelli's instructions didn’t help. Sam takes over and the car starts.

Mac returns to tell Jax and Diane both of Alexis’ cars have been brought in and Alexis comes in demanding to know what’s going on. Lucky comes in and says the forensics on Alexis’ cars are in.


Jason and Sam come to the restaurant Michael and Kristina were just at and Sam tries to wipe dirt off her face, but misses, so Jason reaches over and wipes it off for her.



Claudia talks to Uncle Ruddy so she can get justice for her baby. She thanks him and hangs up. She then calls Jerry, noting that she knew he would be surprised to hear from her, but she has powerful connections. She tells him to find Michael and bring him to her.



Mac, Lucky, Alexis and Jax go to the garage and learn there is a small scrape at the bumper and it looks like it made contact with a car that matches the color of Claudia’s car. Mac asks who had access to her car and Alexis confesses that she ran Claudia off the road.


Next on General Hospital:

Jason and Sam hit another speed bump.

Jax is suspicious of Alexis.

Carly warns Olivia.

Jerry tracks Michael and Kristina.

Yesterdays show ended with "In Loving Memory of...." anyone know who that is?
WHY would Jerry take orders from Claudia?
As for Alexis taking this stance about Kristina, I think it's because as far as Alexis knows this is totally out of character for her daughter.
Read some TERRIBLE news....Olivia has signed a contract. PUKE!
As far as Dante' being ok with his mother sleeping with a guy his age that he KNOWS and kind of works with...but because they are over 21 he would not voice an opinion...YA RIGHT! ANY YOUNG MAN would hate it and have plenty to say to his mom and his "friend". I sure wouldn't want my friends sleeping with my kids and they are over 21! Johnny would be hot with Sam.
Spencer is on his way back and...he's a Ransom!!!

Love Tracy:"Cassedines 1;Quartermines 0" Carly had a hell of a nerve listing Alexis's faults. I would have loved to hear Alexis list Carly's. Knew Alexis would confess to protect Kristina. Now who will protect Alexis? Got an e-mail from someone who attended a Steve Burton event & I guess he said no contract decisions had been made yet & that Maxie,Lulu,Spinelli,Ethan,etc, were "the future of the show". Sounds ominous!

Also forgot to add: As far as Claudia...she really needs to get back to bed. Not only did she loose her baby but, she had BRAIN SURGERY! and...even though it's a fake baby with a fake mom...still wouldn't wish a miscarriage on anyone. All these people are fake...we just pretend...

I like Alexis, but she is getting on my nerves lately. Hollier than thou attitude. Jason and Sam it's about time. Yeah. I'm not sure about the Kristina/Michael story and they need to get the Claudia shot Michael story out. It's dragged on for way way way tooooooooo long. And you would think she would know better about putting hits on people because she already failed at two.

Get a grip Claudia you are seriously going to try and go after your husband son because you think he caused your son's death but you almost cause your husbands son death and got pregnant to protect yourself not because you really wanted a child. She is stupid. But that's just my opinion.

I kind of liked Olivia and Johnny together. The Rebecca story I don't like this one.

Maxie must be a gorgon (BadAZZ) in bed to have Spinelli turning into an even bigger parody of himself. How can any logical thinking man want to push someone to marry them after only one night of being officially together. I have to say that the novelty of Spinelli is wearing off really fast.

Oh, please TSW are so entrenched in trying hard but failing to bring forth suspenselful mysterious storylines that they have completely forgotten how to pen a proper romantic storyline. Is this the way someone wipes dirt off of someone's face, by using your thumb to lightly caress their face. Pulease Jason, skip all that mumbo jumbo crap and get to undressing already, how long has it been since you got laid? Clearly it has been affecting his braincells. All that pent up oil riding his AZZ like Zorro, its time for much needed relief or should I say release?

Spencer is on his way back? When? And what do you mean he's a Ransom? I looke forward to seeing Luke & Ethan interacting again. I wish Ethan would have something to do with bringing Luke back. He was the only one who believed there was something wrong when Luke disappeared.

Just finished reading comments from yesterday and wanted to address a few things –

BeanCounter wrote “The only reason I want Claudia gone is that she devolved from a shrewd insightful woman to this woman desperate for Sonny's love and attention.” On this one, I completely agree with you, but instead of getting rid of Claudia, I want them to bring back the strong, self-assured woman she was when she was first on the show! THAT was fun and exciting to watch.

Starlett wrote “the rumor is that even Sarah Brown doesn't like Claudia right now. So what does that tell you?” I’m sure I believe that, but instead of getting rid of her, they should turn the character back into what she first was on the show. Make her a force to be reckoned with, instead of an incompetent hit arranger. That would be far more interesting to watch. Kind of like a mob-running Kate!

It’s funny how so many of these shows that have women as the majority of their audience don’t have really strong women on the shows, isn’t it? Wouldn’t it be nice for a change to see female characters who aren’t pathetic, unstable, shrieking hags for a change? Just a thought.

Haven’t had a chance to watch today’s show yet, so I may post more later.

OMG I'VE NEVER SEEN JERRY AND I THINK THAT WHEN JASON TOUCHED SAM THEY SHOULD HAVE KISSED HOPEFULLY TOMORROW. LOVE THEM. AND I HOPE THAT JASON AND SAM FIND MICHAEL AND KRISTINA BEFORE JERRY AND THE COPS DO. MICHAEL SHOULDN'T GET IN TROUBLE. IT WAS ALEXIS' FAULT. SHE SHOULD BE PUNISHED. AND WHOO WHOO TO SAM THAT WAS AMAZING HOW SHE GOT THEE CAR STARTED. I WOULDN'T BE ABLE 2 DO THAT. LOVE YA THE WHOLE CAST.
