Things are Looking Up.

Monday, December 22 2008
The holiday spirit seems to be working for Sonny, Carly and the Scorpio family.

Robert hesitates after Robin asks him to walk her down the aisle. He says that he loves her dearly and is very proud of her, but he has no right to walk her down the aisle because Mac raised her. Robin points out that her Uncle Mac escorted her at her first wedding. Robert says that he didn't make enough sacrifices to accommodate a family, but Mac did. He offers to run it by Mac first and then picks up his coat. When Anna returns with Chinese food and beer, she asks where Robert is? They talk about how freaked out Robert is with all this domesticity. Robin asks Anna to be her maid of honor and Anna is happy to accept.


Over at Sonny's house, Claudia goes back to her laptop and looks for clues from Jerry's DVD. Soon she starts searching and jumps when Ric walks in. He asks if she needs any help? Claudia covers by saying that Sonny was mad about her putting up the tree and threw an ornament that she'd like to glue back together. Ric finds the ornament but also spots the empty DVD case, he asks what's really going on. She teases him and drags him upstairs instead of giving him an answer. Ric tries to slow things down by asking what happened to gaining Sonny's trust, but she successfully seduces him. Afterwards, Ric warns her against how Sonny will act if he feels betrayed by her.



Jason is holding a bleeding Sasha in his arms down on the waterfront. She tries to tell him where Sam is, but dies first. He puts her down and rushes home.



When he gets there, he tells Spinelli about Sasha and tells him to search a place that sounds like "White Rocks" because that's what he thinks Sasha told him. Spinelli quickly finds a quarry in the area that used to be known for producing white granite. They print out a map and take off!



Luke comes upon Sasha and kneels down next to her body. Robert shows up and tells him that he hasn't lost his touch. Luke is happy to see that his old buddy is in town, and in remission to boot. He offers him a Cuban cigar to celebrate, but before they can light up the cops show up and cuff them. Before they can be dragged to the PCPD, Mac shows up and tells them to uncuff Robert and Luke. Then he hugs Robert but says he should punch his lights out. He warns Luke against getting Robert involved in any of his schemes and then Luke rushes off to find his cigar dealer. Robert takes the opportunity to talk to Mac about walking Robin down the aisle and Mac urges him to do it. Robert balks, but Mac tells him to walk his daughter down the aisle or sit out the wedding in jail!



Kate runs into Jax at The Metro Court. She's surprised to hear of his plans to spend the holidays with his mother and says that she was hoping to spend them together since they are both Christmas orphans this year. She says that Olivia is spending the holidays in Benson Hurst and she doesn't feel like joining them for more family arguing. Jax insists that Lady Jane needs him and Kate says that at least she knows he won't end up with Carly.



"So when did you get so tall?" Sonny asks Morgan. He takes Morgan in his arms and smiles at Carly. They all sit down together and talk about Michael and all the fun things he taught Morgan over the years, like how to shake the presents early. Before long, Morgan runs upstairs and Carly explains that Christmas is supposed to be about miracles and she hopes they can somehow heal. Sonny asks if this is just for the holidays or will he be welcome back in Morgan's life? Carly hesitates and Sonny asks her if she still blames him for Michael's shooting. Carly answers by saying that Morgan needs both of them and they have to begin somewhere. She tells him that he can see Morgan if he swears to keep him safe. Sonny assures her that is exactly why he's doing what he's doing. Morgan rushes back downstairs with an angel ornament that he made for Michael.



Mac has driven Robert back to Robin's house and they all sit down for Chinese takeout. Robin makes a toast to all of them and thanks them for loving and supporting her. Mac says that he'll sit in the front row of the church and cheer her on as Robert walks her down the aisle.



Meanwhile, Sam is down in the pit hallucinating about the time she watched Jake get kidnapped in the park. This time, however, she steps up and tells the woman to leave the baby alone and Liz thanks her. Soon, Jason jumps down into the pit. He's brought a blanket, and Spinelli is above ground calling for help. Jason encourages Sam to talk to him until help comes. She tells him about her dreams and apologizes for letting Jake get kidnapped.



Carly and Morgan rush into The Metro Court and are glad to find Jax before he leaves town. They have presents for him and Morgan points out that they are standing under the mistletoe. Jax gladly takes Carly in his arms and gives her a big kiss.


Sonny returns home and finds Claudia sitting by the tree with wine. She pours him a glass and he thanks her for gluing the ornament. "Merry Christmas Mrs. Corinthos," he says and as they clink glasses she tells him that she's had worse.

Next on General Hospital:

Santa Claus asks Spinelli for help.

Spinelli is assisted by Maxie in making some holiday magic.

Robin is finally able to comfort Emma.

Monica gets a visit from Alan!

Luke, Lucky, Lulu and Nikolas get together to put Laura's angle on their tree.

Tracy watches Luke from a distance.

With the exception of the Robert, Luke, and Mac scenes today's show was so BORING!!!!

For some reason I just can't get into this redeem the Sam character s/l.....this has been going on since sweeps enough already.
I say leave her as the bad girl, every soap needs one!

Yay, Sam rescued!! I don't want Kate and Jax together!! Sonny really should be with Carly; they will forever be connected. They need to just suck it up and work it out! Ric and Claudia are good together. I love the scenes with Patrick,Robin and family.

I also like the scenes with Patrick, Robin and family. I do hope after the wedding that Robert and Luke do an adventure as they are fun to watch.
Happy Sam is free..Now I hope she learned her lesson..Go back to Lucky get married and have his baby.

Ummm, what kind of Mobster House does Sonny live in? I am just curious how Jerry Jacks--a "dead" kidnapping murder can just stroll into his house and leave clues around? Or how Ric, Sonny's brother can just come in the house and have sex with Sonny's wife, and Sonny is clueless? I believe that Johnny had climbed on to his balcony last week, without being detected. Why does he have bodyguards? It just appears that people can just waltz into his home.
This whole Jerry thing is LAME, cut it out.

I don't mind Jason and Sam getting back together, but I don't think Lucky and Elizabeth work. I don't think Lucky and Sam work either. He lacks Chemistry with both ladies.

For the record: MAC SHOULD WALK ROBIN DOWN THE AISLE. He has sacrificed so much for all these girls, while their parents are off playing Indiana Jones and the lost criminals. On her special day, they get to come and play hero. Not right, but I guess Robert is her father, whatever!

Kate is going to end up the loser YEAAAAA! No Jax because he is still in love with Carly. No Sonny because he is still in love with Mob Power. Maybe she can go back to Trevor.

Hey guys! I know that I haven't posted an entry for a while. I have to say that I really liked today's episode. I am happy so see Robin with her parents. I am so glad that Robert will be walking her down the isle. I like the fact that Anna will be her matron of honor. I liked the reunion between Luke and Robert. I really hope that Jax and Kate's New Year's resolutions are to grow up and learn to prctice what they preach. I hope that Sonny gets away form Claudia in the new year and gets back with Kate. I hope Jax and Carly get back together. I am happy that Robin and Patrick live happily ever after. The thing that made me the happiest about today's show is that Sonny and Morgan can spend time together again. I really didn't like how that ended up at first. I loved the looks on Morgan and Sonny's faces when rhey first saw each other again. Let me know what you think ou there. I'll send an entry tomorrow. Bye!

Hi Jackie..yes I also liked the scenes with Sonny and Morgan. I sure hope they keep that actor around awhile. So does this mean that Carly will now redo those papers and Sonny will have his rights back to the boys. I sure hope so even though he is a mob guy he really is a great dad. Not sure where the gauards are that they allow Jerry and Ric into this big protected house.
I want Kate to stay on the show but just not sure who I want her with. All depends on Brenda....Carly and Sonny need to be together as they do click.

Not to sound TOO harsh but ok, Sam is redeemed on the show, can we move her on now please??? Can she now have a life that isn't us watching AGAIN her being captured trying to foil yet ANOTHER gangster and then she HERSELF gets foiled...it's getting old. Let her and Lucky do whatever it is they do, show her with her mom and sisters but ENOUGH of the "rescue Sam" missions lately....that's ONE OF the reasons I didn't like Jason and Sam the FIRST time around. Do we have to see it AGAIN since they're no longer a couple?

Posted by brwneyez at Monday, December 22 2008 02:56 PM

Kate is pretty pathetic, too bad all the men in her life really want Carly...someone tell kate green IS NOT her color!

Posted by LEVIC at Monday, December 22 2008 03:14 PM

I was crying today when Sam was apologizing and crying at the Sam for Jake kidnapping she was just sincerly sorry. I could feel her pain.
