From: njs@lhdsy2.lahabra.chevron.com (N.J.Spera) Subject: GH: Update, Wednesday, January 3, 1996 Date: 4 Jan 1996 16:39:12 GMT A BIG THANK YOU to Paul, Apple, and Rika for so abling substituting for me. Me thinks my job might be in jeopardy. :-) GENERAL HOSPITAL Wednesday, January 3, 1996 Today's Stories I Wanna Go Home An Offer From Tom Mr. Mom and The Nanny A Letter From Stone and More I Wanna Go Home --------------- Our intrepid Duckling Island visitors are having the time of their lives. The deluge may be over but the ceiling is leaking and there are lizards everywhere but where they should be. As both Kevin and Mac bail the filling buckets both Lucy and Katherine wail "I Wanna Go Home." Mac questions if that's such a good idea but Katherine counters that Lucy's likely to be telling tales for the next 6 months so everyone in Port Charles will know Katherine's whereabouts in minutes. It's not long before Kevin and Lucy again "darken" Mac and Katherine's door. It's time to pool their resources for breakfast. However there's a problem, Lucy took the leftover processed meat products AND Katherine's airline peanut snacks the night before. Kevin suggests a walk to the main hut for info and food. The foursome returns with cornflakes and orange juice, the milk had gone bad with the lack of electricity. But there is good news. Phone service should be restored soon. Lucy promises to to keep quiet about Katherine and lie to Damian... not for Katherine but for Mac. When Kevin and Lucy return to their room Mac comes up with a bright idea. They can make a stopover in Miami and Katherine can hole up there. Mac makes a call to Robin and Felicia while Katherine eyes a mother of all lizards. When Mac gets off the phone he has lost his cheery look. Although it's fine with Felicia he has learned that Sonny was not indicted, something about jury tampering. There goes Katherine's hope that Sonny would turn in Damian. As it is Mac has realized that Sonny probably wouldn't have done that anyways. Time to come up with a new plan. They won't "directly" return to Port Charles but will let Kevin and Lucy think they are making a stopover in Miami but will just take a later plane. Mac offers to take care of that lizard...taken care of says Katherine as we hear Lucy scream. Later Kevin has arranged first class back to Port Charles and to make it up to Lucy he offers her a week in Paris as Mac and Katherine are agreed, they have a plan. An Offer From Tom ----------------- Justus relates Jason's condition to Simome who gets him to admit he does feel a little connection to the Qs and especially Jason whom he likes the most. Justus is concerned for Keesha. He had never seen such fear in her eyes. They decide to be the "good thoughts" poster children and hope that all will be well with Jason by the time their wedding rolls around in 10 days so that they will be celebrating with the Quartermaines. Justus decides to make a visit to the Q mansion, Edward isn't that young and his heart isn't the tops. Tom sees Simone give Justus a hug before Justus leaves. Tom comes over to Simone. He has an offer for her. He'll take Tommy so they can have an unencumbered honeymoon on white sand beaches. With Jason's situation she's not so sure they'll take a long honeymoon but Simone does take Tom up on his offer. Tom even offers to show up at their wedding. Not that it's something he really wants to do but if Simone thinks it will set Tommy on the right path given all the problems with Tommy recently Tom's willing to do it. Simone turns that down. Steve and Audrey have seen this exchange. Steve complements Tom on his attitude, but Tom doesn't quite see it that way as he walks off. Mr. Mom and The Nanny --------------------- Luke attempts to place an order for the club as he gives Lucky a grocery list. That accomplished something is wrong. Where is the baby? Lucky has taken care of her. She's sleeping on the living room floor. Lucky questions Luke about his parents' relationship...is everything ok?...after he hears Laura was up with Lulu at 5 am but Luke wasn't. Luke tries to reassure Lucky...Luke's not going anywhere and Lucky can make book on that (and probably will). Lucky shows Luke the big bucks he won at the Tuesday poker game at the bike shop. Luke is all concerned and serious... Luke's best fatherly advice....is....take no prisoners. Mike arrives all concerned that Lulu is sleeping on the living room floor. All fine with Luke, he's been able to work for the past hour, trying to sort out the clubs finances, seems he thinks Sonny is mathematically challenged. Mike tries to get Luke to talk about Sonny's situation, especially Sonny's decision to marry Lily since Mike knows Sonny loves Brenda. It's crazy but Luke reminds him that it's about trust and given Sonny's background regarding love it's not surprising. That one hits Mike dead center. When Mike wonders about Sonny's "career" with Rivera as a father-in-law it dawns on him that Sonny made a deal. Luke suggests Mike forget that idea and pursue a different conversation. When Luke leaves the kitchen Mike pours the coffee "down the drain." A Letter from Stone and More ---------------------------- Sonny has gone through the last of Stone's things and has found a letter for Robin. He's about to head off to give it to Robin when the doorbell rings. Hmmm, it's Damian again. Lily makes herself scarce as Damian asks if Sonny has found out who was behind the hit attempt and if Damian is under Sonny's protective umbrella. Sonny is coy. Damian is still alive isn't he? Damian figures out Sonnny either has called in many chips or has become really powerful. Damian starts to put 2 and 2 together, no indictment, Sonny with Lily, Damian still alive...he figures Sonny has thrown in with Rivera. All Sonny will say is that Sonny has bought Damian a little time. Well, a little time is all Damian needs. Sonny heads for the foundation where he gives Robin the letter from Stone. He goes to leave so Robin can read the letter in private but Robin wants him to stay while she reads it. He makes her promise she'll tell him to leave if it gets too personal. Robin reads the moving letter but is unable to finish reading it aloud and gets Sonny to finish it. Robin realizes how hard it must have been for Stone to write the letter but Sonny calls it a "labor of love." She wonders where Stone is. Sonny thinks someplace better where there is no pain. Robin breaks down admitting to Sonny how much she misses Stone. Robin worries about forgeting about Stone when she gets to the point of not thinking about him every minute. But Sonny reminds her Stone will always be with her...she thinks of Sonny's mother...and her own parents.... yes, now she remembers....she had forgotten about that for a second. Robin is grateful for all those around her and suggests that Sonny let Brenda help him. But there is no more Sonny and Brenda despite what Robin saw on the bridge when they scattered Stone's ashes. When Sonny tells Robin he's marrying Lily, Robin is shocked. He can't, he loves Brenda. But it's not about that, it's about trust and being "good" for one anther. He and Brenda aren't good for each other. The conversation is interrupted by Justus arriving at the Foundation. A little conversation about Sonny's legal situation follows with the news that Justus had a personal audience with the mayor and is due for an emergency closed door council session. Justus noticed Robin is really down. Unfortunately he has bad news for her. Robin is really thrown that Jason is injured and when she hears he might not make it she rails at the world. Sonny hugs her and reminds her Jason isn't Stone and there is hope to hang onto.
