From: njs@lhdsy2.lahabra.chevron.com (N.J.Spera) Subject: GH: Update, Wednesday, May 3, 1995 Date: 4 May 1995 15:53:57 GMT GENERAL HOSPITAL Wednesday, May 3, 1995 Today's Stories Mother's Day Out Promises, Promises Why Now? Wyndhams Or Bust Mother's Day Out ---------------- After putting a kettle on Maria is startled to find Frisco on the couch. When we next see the Jones household it is controlled frenzy as Felicia is making Maxie's lunch, trying to convince Maxie not to wear her party dress to school, and keep Georgie pacified. When Frisco finally asks what he can do, she has him rock Georgie and help Maxie get dressed. When Frisco offers to do anything Felicia gets a gleam in her eye. Frisco can watch Georgie while Felicia and Maria go shopping and eat lunch out. Maxie whines that Georgie gets to have a date with daddy, so Felicia relents and lets Maxie stay home from school. Maria wonders if it won't be too much for Frisco but Felicia thinks it's exactly what Frisco needs. Once it's daddy and his girls Frisco has to resort to singing to quiet Georgie, only after Maxie suggests it, and then he doesn't notice Georgie has quit crying until Maxie points it out. Then Frisco tells a story, but not The Three Bears, Maxie is too old for that, a story of Frisco surviving a trek to safety. Then it's play time. Frisco suggests freeze tag, etc. but Maxie wants to play with Bimba. Bimba is a doll. Not exactly what Frisco had in mind. It's a wedding Maxie has in mind but when Frisco tries to point out all the possibilities for girls Maxie tells him mommy has told her the 90's are about choice and Maxie's choice is a wedding for Bimba. Just then Georgie starts crying and as he tries to attend to her Maxie wants him at the wedding. Frisco finally picks up the phone and orders Rakeem to come over and help. Meanwhile Felicia and Maria arrive at the Outback for food. Mac is surprised to see Felicia out of the house since she's been bonding with Georgie. Mac is truly shocked to hear Frisco has finally shown up and is babysitting. Rakeem plays with Maxie, blowing up bridges and all, while Frisco dozes and snores. Georgie once again starts crying. The men aren't quite sure what's wrong but Maxie points out Georgie needs a new diaper. Rakeem won't do it even though he has two kids, and Frisco utters one of the LOTD, "I dismantle bombs, not diapers" only to have Rakeem counter that he doesn't do diapers. Maxie offers to teach Daddy. Sometime later the two men are cleaning up the mess that was created as Maxie jumps all over the sofa. They hear Maria and Felicia coming so Frisco grabs Maxie and a teddy bear, and sits at the table with Rakeem. Rakeem's greeting with Maria is *very* smooth. Frisco claims the day was a piece of cake till Maxie pipes up that Frisco was snoring and Rakeem was blowing up bridges. Promises, Promises ------------------ Lucy arrives back at her apartment only to find Kevin on her bed. She kisses him and he awakens to hold her, grateful that she's ok. But, Lucy isn't really ok, it was horrible. After she relates what transpired down at the warehouse, that if it wasn't for Mike Sonny would be dead and if it wasn't for Luke and Sonny she'd be dead, Kevin admits he is grateful to Luke and Sonny. When Lucy hears Kevin heard all about the sting from Luke she worries that Kevin might have told the police but no, if he had they'd be in jail. Kevin is definitely not happy that Luke and Sonny got Lucy involved with drugs. It's starts to look like Lucy and Kevin will be moving to the bed but before that happens Kevin wants a promise from Lucy. She's not to put herself or Kevin through anything like this again and to contemplate a "boring" life. When Lucy balks at boring, Kevin reminds her that boring to Lucy is dangerous for everyone else. Kevin's been stretched as far as he can go...and wants to know if Lucy can change. He wants Lucy to stay out of danger, danger being anything that takes Lucy away from him. Lucy promises to be good. In their afterglow Kevin warns Lucy of a delayed reaction to the kidnapping. Mention of the kidnapping starts Lucy wondering why Damian tipped Luke to where Scully had taken her. Lucy pops out of bed to go ask Damian which doesn't exactly please Kevin. Lucy figures she can't get into any trouble in Damian's hotel room. Why Now? -------- While Sonny paces in Mike's ICU room Luke learns from Tony that while Mike did make it through the night he's just barely holding his own. Brenda arrives, unable to wait any longer at the apartment, not knowing where Sonny was or how badly Mike was shot. She learns Scully shot Mike and when she asks who killed Scully upon learning Scully was killed Luke just points her in the direction of Sonny, just beyond the window. Luke then takes her into the hall to explain the MDP and how Lucy was nabbed after Scully had made bail. Brenda wants to stay with Sonny but she was scheduled to go shopping with Lois. Luke offers to call Lois. Sonny finally sees Brenda, comes out into the waiting room. Brenda expresses her sympathies and Sonny remarks he would have been in the morgue if not for Mike. However Sonny still questions Mike's motives. It would be just like Mike to die and thus leave Sonny feeling guilty for the rest of Sonny's life. Luke gets ahold of Lois after she has awakened from a nightmare. One where she walked down the aisle naked. Ned thinks it's funny but not Lois. It's another panic attack. When she answers the phone, she learns Sonny and Brenda are ok but Mike's in the hospital. Lois tells Luke they'll be right down before Luke can tell her not to come. When Lois and Ned arrive at ICU Lois has hugs for Sonny and Brenda. They learn Scully is dead. When Ned asks how Scully died Sonny gives the Cliff Notes version. Brenda wants to back out of shopping and Lois agrees until Sonny pushes Brenda to go. Lois sees Sonny wants to be alone so off they go. Ned asks Sonny for more details but Sonny tells Ned to read about it in the paper. The paper isn't good enough for Ned so he goes to see Mac. Mac tells him the straightforward story about Sonny and Luke rescuing Lucy, that it was pure self-defense and confirmed by witnesses. Both are dismayed that once again Sonny has landed on his feet. Ned is worried as Mac thinks a guy married to Sonny's partner would be but Ned can't understand how Lois and Brenda can't see the danger. Back in ICU Sonny continues to pace. Sonny wonders why Mike is there now and not back when Sonny got beat up as a kid. Sonny learned from that beating, built himself up and tackled the bully who beat him up such that no one ever messed with Sonny again. Sonny wants to know why now is when Mike was there. Harry arrives and tells Luke word has hit the street. Sonny is motioned out and Harry gives them the word. It's bad news, very bad news. Wyndhams Or Bust ---------------- When Lois and Brenda leave GH they head to Fifi's Bridal Barn, a discount bridal store. The sales clerk mistakes Brenda for the bride so she repeats her sugary greeting twice. She thinks Lois is probably interested in New Age, but no, Lois wants traditional but not cliche. Lois tries on one tacky gown after another, which look even tackier with her black straps, black stocking and leather boots. Lois is about to commit suicide when she and Brenda are in tacky, puffy, dresses. But instead of a double funeral Brenda tries to convince Lois they should go to Wyndhams. Lois thinks that's too expensive, this Quartermaine is on a budget. But faced with the lack of elegance in Fifi's Lois finally agrees to look for something elegant, yet understated at Wyndhams. It's Wyndhams or Bust. Till Next Time -- (c) Nancy Spera, 1995 - reprint permission to other bbs - available from "njs@chevron.com". -- -- Nancy J.
