          General Hospital Update for Monday, November 14

SPECULATION:  Okay, my nominees for a "well-loved GH Character" to bite the
big one are: Ruby (just returned from heart surgery, maybe she's not that
strong), Amy (going nowhere on GH and her clothing design business seems to
be healthy), Audrey Hardy (nothing to do since the Volunteens disbanded).
Or maybe somebody like Lee Baldwin or Steve Hardy?

Edward Only Makes it Worse!
=============================================================================
Edward tells Milt Stannis and Lee Baldwin that he went to the PC Hotel and
confronted Jack Boland about Boland's faux testimony in front of the grand
jury.  Then Edward boasts that he tossed Boland out of the hotel.  Lee and
Milt are horrified that Edward made a scene in so public a place; also that
he threatened Jack Boland with bodily harm!  Milt tells Edward that if he
continues to ignore his lawyers' advice, then Eddie's wasting his precious
money while undercutting his own case at the same time.  Milt explains that
the public perception of Edward is critical; he cannot be seen as some
hotheaded old fart who goes around threatening people.  Eddie reluctantly
agrees to keep his lip zipped in the future.

Saint Justus Speaks to the Masses
=============================================================================
Justus pontificates some to Tiff, who has come to interview him; May-Mae,
also in residence, tosses her $.02 in about the toxic thingy.  Tiff tries to
get Justus to say that his stand on the toxic thing was directly related to
the attack.  Justus tells Tiff about the threatening phone call, his visit to
Ned, etc., and Tiff draws the conclusion she's meant to.  Then Justus runs
down his list of injuries and finishes with a statement to ELQ, something to
the effect "I'm not gonna quit and you can't make me...nyahhh!"

Leaky and Looper return to Luk-Luk and Lizardo!
=============================================================================
Laura and baby return home. She's a bit chagrined to learn that things are
heating up in Port Chuck.  Luke threatens to return them back to the safe
house but Laura is adamant that she's home to stay!  Lucky is astounded to
learn that his parents will be celebrating their 13th anniversary this week.
Luke tells Laura honestly about what's been going on with the toxic whizzer
and how Justus got beat up, etc.  She says she's glad she's home and is ready
to fight!  End of the show, Laura inspects the house and is appalled at the
trashy state of Lucky's room.  She tells him "Cuum tam iuvenis eram quam nunc
es Praemium Nobelium celeritatis et munditae abstuli" ("When I was your age I
won the Nobel Prize for promptness and neatness").

Take me to Zee Casbah and Don't Spare the Camels!
=============================================================================
In FauxCairo, Doc Tony and Filly are with Rakim in the "exotic" bazaar; Rakim
tells them that Frisco is in that very same bazaar!  Gaaaah!  The staggering
synchronicity!  Filly has a semi-major anxiety attack and tells Tony that
maybe she should rethink telling Frisco...puh-leeeze!  She starts to wail and
hyperventilate. Rakim backs away from these two loco Americans.  Then she has
her first contraction, which Tony tells her wasn't a real contraction but just
her imagination.  Some guy sidles up to them, presses a knife against Rakim's
ribs and demands that they take him to Frisco.  Filly starts mouthing off and
the guy grabs her.  Then "Indiana" Tony Jones whips out a scalpel and offers
to give the guy a tummy tuck.  Frisco suddenly shows up and disposes of the
guy.  He turns and faces Filly!  She tells him that they're having a baby;
he claims to be happy.  The group hurries off to safety.

The Pile of Excrement Flies to Puerto Rico
=============================================================================
Mig and LeLee are on the plane (traveling in the cargo hold because the
stewardesses wouldn't let him ride up front with the normal people).  As they
scuttle down the steps after the plane lands, the prop engines do a sudden
reverse-rev and Mig's hair gets sucked up.  The powerful force of the wind
draws him into the machinery and just for a moment the engines make a grinding
sound (but satisfying, like the sound of a blender making a mai-tai).  LeLee
hurries off to find a washroom and the airline maintenance guys reach for the
high-pressure water hoses.

End of Monday' show...
