Jason and Sam give their statements, Lulu and Maxie settle in and Tracy calls Luke's bluff.


It's anything but a peaceful day over at Robin's place. She admits to Patrick that it upsets her to see her daughter cry whenever she's around. She decides to do everyone a favor and leave for a while and give Emma a break from her.



Later, Mac comes across Robin on a bench in the park and asks if she's okay. Robin admits that she doesn't have the energy to lie. She laments over her inability to comfort her own daughter. Mac can't help but to chuckle when Robin says that the only proof she has is that her baby cries. He buys her some popcorn and she assures him that her meltdown has passed. Mac is giving her a pep talk as Patrick comes by with the stroller. He tells her that he and Emma missed her.



Claudia is none too pleased to find Olivia strolling around her living room. She tells her that if she's well enough to roam around snooping, she's well enough to go home. Sonny walks in and Olivia asks if his wife speaks for him? Sonny yells at Claudia, but admits that Olivia would be better off anywhere but here. He offers to get her a car, but she says she can manage to stroll across the football-sized lawn over to Kate's place.



Lucky brings Liz and her boys back to their place. Liz thanks Lucky for being such a wonderful father and asks if they can have some kind of mini celebration as a family. Lucky suggests a trip to the zoo to see Santa. Liz loves the idea. Then she gets a call to come to the courthouse to give a statement.



Jason is surprised to find Sam on the bench next to him at the courthouse. He tells her that she shouldn't have to talk to the Feds, but Sam says that she'll own up to her part in everything. Diane comes out and says that the agent wants to hear them both at the same time.



Once seated, the agent tells them, "The report reads like a wild west movie, only with Russians." He notes that five men are dead and wonders why they both shouldn't be charged with murder. Together Sam and Jason tell the tale of what happened as the agent paces the room. When they finish, the agent asks whose decision it was to get the kid without calling the cops? "Mine," Sam and Jason say in unison. After they explain their reasoning, the agent says that it appears that they acted in self defense.



Lulu and Maxie are over at their new apartment arguing. Maxie tells Lulu to do the cleaning and she'll be the interior designer. Then she puts dibs on the bigger bedroom because her designer clothes deserve the big closet. Lulu says that she's the only person with a boyfriend so she gets the big room. Spinelli knocks at the door and they pull him in and ask him to decide. He is too stunned to learn about their new status as roommates to think for a moment, but then offers to facilitate as they come to domestic decisions.



Johnny shows up and they decide to cut cards over who gets the big room. The jackal selects a jack, but Johnny picks an ace. Lulu explains that 'their' new room will be big enough and explains to Spinelli that Johnny has nowhere else to live for the moment. Spinelli doesn't like the sound of the arrangement at all.



Edward is tiptoeing around Tracy over at the Quartermaine house. He tells her that she's been miserable since her problems with Luke started and their stock prices are falling. Just then, Luke barrels through the terrace doors and makes a beeline for the bar. As Tracy warns that he'll die of alcohol poisoning, Luke acts more drunk than humanly possible. Edward leaves them alone. Luke says that he has a few pubs to crawl and hopefully it'll only take a few weeks for his liver to fail. She tells him to go clog his arteries in France while visiting his true love. He stands up and tries to kiss her but she can't smell any liquor so she realizes that he's scheming. Luke dumps his act and proceeds to try to figure out why Tracy has given up on them. Tracy throws him out, again, and he promises to go on the biggest bender of his life.



After Luke's gone, Tracy can't help but to look out the door for him. Alan appears and asks her how she'd feel if he really drank himself to death?



Back at Sonny's house, Sonny tells Max that he's going to make Claudia lunch. Max is confused as to why he'd do that for someone he doesn't like. Sonny explains that if Karpov didn't shoot Kate, one of the Zaccharas did and he intends to cozy up to his wife to find out more.


Later, when Claudia finds Sonny in the dining room with lunch she promptly swaps place settings in case he poisoned her. She loves the tomato basil soup and sausage and peppers, but says that hers is better. She tells him that she's touched by the gesture, but asks what it's going to cost her?


Sam has left the courthouse and Diane is talking to Jason in the hallway as Liz arrives. Diane advises him against having a heart-to-heart here and now, but leaves them alone anyway. The first thing he does is ask Liz about Jake. He tells her that the room Jake was in was only ten feet from where the gunfire was going off.



Sam goes home and soon after, Lucky arrives. He takes her in his arms and says how much he has missed her. Lucky tells her that Jason and Liz are grateful to her and now they can get back to normal. He gives her a kiss, but she pulls back.


Next on General Hospital:

Jason and Elizabeth face the cold, hard facts.

Carly goes to Jason for help.

Jason tells Spinelli that he needs to move out for his own sake.

Lucky is fed up with Sam when he learns that she plans to keep up with her investigation.

Nikolas is unsettled to see Nadine's close relationship with a guy from her high school.

Spinelli isn't happy to learn that Johnny is staying at Lulu and Maxie's apartment.

Sonny loses Diane for his lawyer.

Claudia gets a surprise kiss from Sonny.

Olivia is roaming around someone else's house--A guy she claims is a selfish mobster. It doesn't matter why he married Claudia, they are married!
It is really rude for her to ask Sonny if his wife speaks for him. She is staying at this dangerous guys house, when her cousin leaves across the lawn.

By the way, what is her reason for not being home with her son? Connie is not in the hospital anymore and she is not getting married to Sonny anymore. Why is she still here?

LOL at Spin's pic on here!

I thought Sam pulling back from Lucky at the end was so appropriate. I mean how could Lucky expect anything different with the way he and Liz made her feel like an outsider once Jake was back safe.

I like how Jason just stared at Liz at the end. I saw him looking straight ahead, and I was wondering who the mess he was staring at so long and hard. When I realized it was Liz, I was thrilled. I also liked how time stood still when she passed him and Diane tried to divert his attention or warn him against speaking with Liz. Liz is too frustrating for me though, one minute she telling Lucky that things can't go back the way they were because of Jason. However,she's ready to relieve Jason's self guilt by lying to him and telling him he shouldn't blame himself. I wish she would just say, Jason because of you the boys and I are targets. I regret that that is the way it is, but I knew who you were before we were together and I know who you are now, and no matter how much we want to stay away from each other because of safety, the truth is you are the only one that make me feel safe. Despite what happened, I have faith that we can be together and you will always protect me and the boys. That's that!

Maxi and Lulu- Lulu might be happy now, but she will regret having Johnny move in with her. I am sure Maxi will revert to her old ways and try to seduce Johnny a way from Lulu. I can't wait to see this one.

Sonny is playing with fire. He has good intentions as far as trying to find out the truth, but I think he may actually fall for Claudia.

Olivia so wants Sonny!

Ok at least today was more intersting than yesterday. I agree its odd for Olivia to be at Sonny's house instead of Kates, and whatever the circumstances of Claudia and Sonny's marriage, it is her house too. I still think there is more chemistry between Sonny and Olivia, but I would love to be proved wrong. I loved the comfortableness with Jason and Sam and was saddend by Jason and Liz's scene that he has had to wait this long to know about his son.

Now, why wouldnt Sam pull away from Lucky? Oh hello now you have time for me? You all but dismiss me the night of Jakes being saved and send me home with another man, and now you want to come and act like a boyfriend? Oh heck no, I would have pulled back too. What woman wants to be treated like an afterthought? Sam doesnt deserve that again in her life. Maybe the answer if for Sam to have a new love interest as well? It would have to be someone as equally intersting as her and it sure isnt Lucky.

I am sorry for my grammatical errors.

Posted by Blesseddiva at Thursday, December 11 2008 01:51 PM

Sam would never be happy with Lucky--their chemistry is forced and he is just too boring for her. She needs excitement and adventure--and not on the legal side of things. So it just wont work.
This was a rebound relationship and it is time Sam go back to Jason--that was a true partnership.

Please there has to be a Jason & Liz..........
Somehow because this is a great love story..........

Posted by genhospchat at Thursday, December 11 2008 01:52 PM

alioop: Are you kidding? WHEN does Sam have time for Lucky? She's off trying to solve investigations by seducing her mother's man and going after Russians in a warehouse when Lucky asked her not to. After everything that's happened and Lucky is STILl willing to be around her, I'd say Sam should be GRATEFUL that he hasn't left HER! Lucky wanted to be with "his son" that night.....that's NOT a crime! I know, I know, if LuSam break up it will be ALL Lucky's fault as Sam can do no wrong and she was a perfect girlfriend. NO MAN will ever put Sam first because she expects them to cater to her every whim (see my examples above)or she pouts.

Sam doesn't REALLY care what happens to Lucky or if he's going to be there forever. She wanted him to spite Liz, they became sex pals and he was there to comfort her when she needed a man. Lucky gave his heart to her and she KNEW that Liz and the boys would ALWAYS be there...if she has an issue with Lucky wanting Jake to feel safe with Liz and Lucky for a day or two, then TOUGH for Sam. She needs to grow up and get over it.

If she's SMART, she'll say that HER LIFE is too dangerous for those boys (because she CHOOSES to get in the middle of things that have NOTHING to do with her) and that as a cop, Lucky shouldn't have to cover for her and walk away from him. I know it will be Sam's fans will make her the good guy and Lucky be the a$$ no matter WHAT happens.

God forbid!!!!!!

oops, that word in the first paragraph is suppose to read "STILL" not "STILl"
