                            GH Update for 03/21/97
                            By John R. Andrews, UIC

Scene 1
At home as Brenda eyes some pills, a newly coiffured Robin shows up.  When she
asks about Brenda's and Sonny's underground experience, Brenda quickly dishes
about Sonny's anatomical spelunking.
Scene 2
At Sonny's, Sonny has Jason call Brenda to check on her, but the line is busy.
Soon after, Det. Taggert arrives and pointedly comments that the drug supply
has dried up since Sonny has been otherwise occupied.
Scene 3
At Katy's, Dr. Dorkman examines her leg but doesn't find much has changed. He
and Miranda exchange a few barbs. Miranda asks about a possible test using a
technical medical term which probably in soapland means she was a doctor at one
time. Jax calls for Miranda, and Katy tells him to come over. When Dorman hears
her tell Jax that Sonny lives next door, his pointy ears perk up.
Scene 4
Stephan stares into space then tells Nikolas Katy turned down the GH job offer.
As Nik goes through the mail, he finds a letter to him apparently from Leslie.
Nikolas eagerly reads the letter aloud, but Stephan comments that it was most
likely dictated by Laura. Bobbie arrives with Lucas in tow and says the brat
saw Daddy kissing Scanty Clothes and got upset. Stephan suggests they tell
Alexis about Tony. Bobbie says she feels Tony took the divorce too well and
she's been waiting for some other reaction. Stephan mentions Nik's letter, and
they discuss Leslie's improving condition. When Bobbie questions how Leslie
might have been if she'd been home all these years, "Dead", Stephan snaps.
Scene 5
Dorman questions Katy about what happened but is dubious about her report of
leg movement. As he leaves, he gives Miranda his pager number and his home
number. "Just in case," he adds with a smarmy smile.
Scene 6
Jax arrives, and Dorman exits but stands by Sonny's door. Suddenly, Jason opens
it and confronts him, so he leaves.
Scene 7
Sonny and Taggert exchange their usual repartee until Sonny comments that the
real murderer may decide Taggert is next.  "...and I'd get a bullet in the head
like Deke?" Taggert replies.  "Who's Deke, and what's he to you?" Sonny asks.
Scene 8
Jax fumbles out a thank you for Miranda finding Brenda's help message in the
note. She says to forget it.
Scene 9
Brenda blathers on about Jax and her and how she told Sonny she loved him.
Robin maintains that now Sonny will believe Brenda's marriage is over and asks
if he'd be right.
Scene 10
Stephan and Bobbie unwind with cognac and face sucking, but she tells him she
must return to GH to finish something (looking for Leslie's GH records).
Scene 11
Brenda and Robin chit-chat about her addiction. Brenda says she must tell Jax
about Sonny and her but only after she gets straight.
Scene 12
Taggert says Sonny mentioned Deke when he was raving after being rescued, but
after he leaves they all agree he didn't hear it at the cave. Deke was Sonny's
abusive stepfather. Later, Sonny and Jason talk about Dorman and Monica. Sonny
comments that maybe Jason can prove Dorman lied, but he really doesn't owe them
anything.
Scene 13
Robin suggests that Brenda see Kevin, but Brenda is reluctant.
Scene 14
Jax continues to ramble on to Miranda about giving her mixed signals.  She says
to give it a rest; he choose Brenda, and she'll live with it.
Scene 15
As Jax leaves Katy's apartment, Sonny lurks in the hallway listening.  He hears
Jax say Sonny is the worst thing to ever happen to Brenda.
Scene 16
Bobbie searches an old warehouse for the hospital records of Leslie Weber.
"Let's see," Bobbie muttered to herself as she flipped through various old
files, "Kennedy, John F, Assassination of; Hoffa Jimmy, Location of; Monroe,
Marilyn, Details of death; Now, I wonder where Stephan keeps the important
files?"
Scene 17
At home, Dorman answers his door to find Jason.
Scene 18
As Robin prepares to leave Brenda's, Sonny arrives.
Scene 19
Stephan gets a call from Katherine, and he immediately says he'll come over.
She agrees.
Scene 20
As Bobbie looks through the files, there's a sudden electrical explosion, and
fire breaks out.
