My dear readers, RATSA wants YOU!!!
Time is awasting and I haven't filled up the entire 6 weeks that I will
be gone with a substitute udater for Mondays.  Please email me if
you are willing to help out your fellow ratsa-ers who can only keep up
with GH via these updates.   This has been a public service
announcement.

On with the update.

            General Hospital
       Update for Monday, 3/11/96
            by Tahnda Bailey

Today was a day for unhappy campers.  Not a happy camper in the bunch,
but nonetheless, I overcame the ff impulse and got all the details for
you. Including listening to Bobbie's dream, which heretofore, I had ff
thru with all due haste (do I get some sort of citation for this type of
work?)  Anyway.....

**Unlucky in Games**
Luke and Laura discuss the possibility that UNLucky is a liar....or
maybe
its budding hormones, he's 13 dontcha know (oops, thats AMC ;).  They
decide hormones is the ticket, and go off to work.  UNLucky stops by the
family living room to check on stealing more do-re-mi for his gambling
debts.  Harper stops by with more not so veiled threats.  He and UNLucky
make arrangements for the next payment.  Emily interrupts.  Harper makes
his exit.  Emily (insightful child that she is) unravels the whole mess.
UnLucky's main concern is losing Luke's *respect* (this should cause
quite the debate on ratsa).  Emily offers him the use of her birthday
ring to pawn for quick cash.  UNLucky couldn't take something that means
so much to her, why doesn't she just let him steal something from the
Qs,
afterall they have sooooo much.  Emily is reluctant, but UNLucky fast
talks her into it by playing the fear card.  "Sonny was right, these are
very bad people, and they may bump me (Lucky) off".  They head to the Qs

**Unlucky in Life**
Q's are looking for %.  Nedly tells AJ to *shut-up* when AJ tries to
join
in the reindeer games.  The family begins to blame AJ for %'s latest
vanishing act because he was the last one seen pummeling % (everyone
seems to have forgotten that it was Monica who actually was the last one
to pummel %, with a well deserved slap upside the head).  Anyway %
destroyed his room, and they fear that he won't come back.  His violent
outburst are a cause for concern.  Monica finally admits to the family
that Jason is dead.  Nedly continues to take digs at AJ.  Edward wants
to
take a firm hand with %.  Let % deal with the consequences of his
behavior, and clean up the destroyed room himself.  Lila is hopeful that
the gently Jason will return.  The family disperses, and Nedly corners
AJ.  AJ (finally) takes a stand against Ned.  Guilt is a 2-way street.
Nedly says he has nothing to feel guilty for, he saved AJ's butt.  "Ah,
says AJ, but have you told *Lois* about your self-less sacrifice?  No,
hmmm, I wonder what she will think, lets ask her now and find out, shall
we?"  Nedly tries to gracefully back down.  "Nevermind the guilt, think
about what it will do to Monica, your mother, if the truth came out."
Ed
enters the room and declares that he has cancelled all of %'s credit
cards and bank accounts.  "% doesn't need money, he has a free ride
here."  Nedly angrily demands that grandfather rescind his actions
immediately.  AJ enters the arguement, saying that Nedly's actions are
precipitated by *his guilt* over the accident.  Nedly is frustrated on
every hand as Ed and AJ refuse to do his bidding, Ed wont reinstate %'s
finances and AJ won't shut up and leave well enough alone.

Meanwhile % arrives at Kelly's looking a little worst for the wear
(apparently AJ won their fight last night).  There is a room for rent,
and % wants it.  Ruby offers him the room, food and TLC.  He takes her
up
on the first two.  As he tries to make payment for both, Ruby informs
him
that his money is no good there.  % insists, and Ruby then informs him
that his money is no good anywhere.  % tells her, "I'll be back" ala
Schwarrzenegger (sp).

Monica returns to the empty library and has some memories of Jason and
%.
 She leaves and UNLucky and Emily arrive to lift a few priceless items.
They hear people approaching and hide under the desk.  Ned and Ed enter
still arguing over Ed's tactics dealing with %.  Ed comments that none
of
this would be happening if Nedly hadn't banged up Jason in the first
place.  Guilt is what's making you cave into %'s outrageous demands.
Nedly, almost at his wit's end, almost confesses, but is interrupted by
motorcycle sounds.  Ed dives for cover as % storms in, "Jason's not
back,
I am." again in true Schwarrzenegger form.

**Unlucky in sleep**
Bobbie goes to see Kevin.  She's got problems (what else is new?).  She
tells Kevin of her dreams.  Lots of metaphors, red silk scarf, old
fashioned lamp with fringes on the shade, scarf disappears, but red
stays.  She is terrified.  She knows it has something to do with BJ's
death (overwhelming sense of loss and sadness).  Maybe she's going nuts.
Kevin thinks not (but of course I disagree).  He recommends she talk to
BJ and say those things that she never had the chance to say.

**Unlucky in Love**
Simone stops by the foundation as Justus is working on his campaign.
The
press is giving Justus and everyone close to him the blues.  Simone
wants
to help him, politically.  Justus tries to keep it strictly business,
but
he misses Simone.  Simone decides its best if she leaves.  Justus helps
her with her coat, and they snuggle longingly, look deep into each
other's eyes, and....., the phone rings.  Its about Tommy, he's in
trouble at school.  A wall comes up between them and Simone rushes out.
The Spencers, Mac and Filly arrive to discuss campaign strategy.  Laura
has arranged a 1-1 interview with Veronica Bowles.  Justus is informed
that Damien was telling the truth, he has bought up most of Charles
Street.  More campaign chatter, what Justus needs is a wife.  On cue,
Simone walks back in.  Laura suggests a quickie marriage, but they say
no, Tommy's trouble at school was defending Simone's honor.  The kids
think Justus is a crook.  Simone leaves, Justus suffers.

That's all folks...
