  General Hospital UNDERWEAR* Update for Monday, April 24, 1995
                               *it'll be brief !!

Lois is worried about the wedding, now only 5 weeks away. She wants Ned to have
Sonny as one of his groomsmen; he declines the "honor".  Then she insists that
he get a quickie annulment so they can be married in the church [did Lois say
"OUR second marriage"???  Was this a slip of the tongue or does Baby-Doll have
something to hide about her past, like a quickie failed marriage?  Also, all
of Ned's talk about how his marriage to Jenny failed because she lied about
herself and hid things about what she'd done in the past...are we getting a
hint of troubles to come??].  He assures her that Jen/Jenny/Jennifer obtained
an annulment to marry her Ken-doll, Paul.  Then Ma Cerullo phones them,
weeping, wailing and rattling her beads.  Seems some squirrels got into the
attic, where the wedding dress was stored, and gnawed their way into the
garment, eventually raising generations of critters.  The dress is ruined and
Lois and Ma bawl their heads off while Ned looks on quizzically and asks the
logical question, "why not buy a new dress?" Later on, they agree that Brenda
should serve both as Lois' maid of honor and as Ned's best man.

Edward and May-Mae, still strolling the grounds outside the gatehouse, discuss
Jason and Keesha, who are, again, deep into "Thanksgiving" festivities in the
City of Lights.  The kids scheme on how to keep their romance alive once they
return to Port Chuck.  Jason tells Keesha that he won't sneak around to see
her once they're home, nor will he deny his love for her.  She cautions him
that they must be terrifically discreet in order to not create an unbridgable
chasm between their families [whew!].  Edward tells May-Mae that he likes
Keesha and, similarly, she avers that in her opinion Jason hung the moon.
However, she is concerned about the kids getting too involved with each other.
The oldsters realize that they're watching history repeat itself and are
feaful for the kids and what might be a future filled with heartbreak.

Lucy wakes Kevin up, not with a kiss and a cappucino, but by exercising. She's
trying to reduce her anxiety about Luke and the scam.  Lucy finally gets the
call from Luke, who tells her that the scam is proceeding on schedule. She is
to meet him at the PCPD (or GH? I got confused).  Lucy pulls on some clothes
and prepares to leave.  Kevin, who's in the sack and awaiting Ms Coe, is
understandably upset. Lucy hands him Sigmund with instructions to "keep Daddy
company" while she's gone.  She exits and Kevin stares at the large feathered
creature now nesting on his chest; he says, "I know, I know...QUACK!"

Harry visits Sonny and asks to be filled in on the Skully business.  Once he
learns what has gone down, Harry is worried that Sonny is in over his head; he
fears Skully's retaliation if the mobster finds out who scammed him.

Luke and Mike try to talk their way out of the clutches of the bad guys but a
scuffle erupts. One of the goons fires his gun at Luke; it connects, but only
grazes his upper arm. They escape the goons, who grab the truck and drive off.
Then our boys run to a pay phone and call the PCPD.  Posing as the Deception
truck driver, Luke explains how his shipment was hijacked.  The cops are on
their way.  Then Mike calls the Feds and tells them about the cocaine shipment
and which warehouse it will be delivered to.  Luke then calls Lucy.  The cops
arrive, get a statement from the boys and take Luke to GH's emergency room.
Bobbie, who recognizes Luke in his lame-oid disguise, almost blows his cover.
But, old 'ho that she is, she catches on and merely tells the "truck driver"
to take care of himself.  At a vacant garage in Port Chuck, the goons along
with Skully and some more men, are unloading the Deception shipment.  They
cackle with glee when they discover the cocaine.  Just then the cops burst in;
Skully is caught, red-handed, holding a large bag of coke.
