UPDATE THURSDAY JUNE 26

1. STUPOR COUPLE CONTINUES TO CONTINUE
Jason is talking to Brenda.  Brenda tells him about getting picked
up (by the COPS, by the COPS!) at the Nurses' Ball.  She's not worried,
of course, just disbelieving.  Jason's sorry she had to go through this.
Brenda whines "I just can't believe this is happening to us right now,
everything just started to be so good.  It's not FAIIIIIIIIIIR!"
Sonny comes in and they talk about Robin.  As Jason leaves, Sonny takes him
aside and tells him to keep an eye on everything.

Taggart and Garcia come with a warrant for
Brenda's arrest.  A shadow of worry crosses
her lovely druggy eyes, but it's gone.

2. ALEXIS SHOULD BE THE CASSADINE, STEFAN IS NOT UP TO THE JOB

Stefan has changed all the passwords.  [Gee, and "island" was such an
inspired choice, too!]  Alexis worries about Luke.  Stefan thunders:
"Did the fool actually believe he could break into My files?" [Well, yes.]
What could he have been looking for?  Alexis continues to worry about
Luke, but Stefan says it would take a "far keener mind than Spencer's to
stop what we've put in motion." [Riiiiiight.  By the way, Stefan, have
you seen this wonderful bridge in Brooklyn? I could sell it to you!]
"One by one every major communication system in the country is being
scanned, analyzed, and co-opted by the Cassadine network." [Aha!  This
explain's Netcom's recent performance!] "How do you feel?" Alexis asks.
"Excellent!  And how about you?"  She wants to see if he still has a
conscinece.  She'll do anything for him and Nikolas.  Nik comes in and
Stefan teases Alexis by telling Nik he has important news for him.  It's
only that he's given Nik the job of hospital student volunteer peer
counsellor.  Nik and Alexis talk.  Alexis is, she says, feeling positive.

3. EMILY AND SARAH MEET
Audrey, in a Major Continuity Error, comes downstairs again after talking
to Tom on the phone.  He will stay in Africa.  Sarah plans to stay in
Port Charles for the summer.  She might go into herb gardens with Lucky
but she's certainly volunteering at the hospital.  Monica and Emily come
to visit.  Emily looks a bit confused on hearing that Monica was once
married to Sarah's dad.  Emily and Sarah go to the mall over Monica's
objections.  Audrey and Monica talk.  Monica is trying to remember what
she used to be like.  She says people are still getting hurt because of her.

At the juice bar, Emily sees Nik and sneaks by [she should give Bobbie
tiptoe lessons...] She's excited: "He is SO hot!"  Sarah looks dubious.
Nik and Emily talk, then Emily goes to get the drinks and Sarah picks a
fight with Nik about having a limo and a driver.  [Surely a doctor's
daughter doesn't need to feel defensive about being poor!]

Sarah and Em see Jason.  Sarah compares Jason to her own older brother.
When she has left for the bookstore, Jason checks on how Emily REALLY
is.

Back at Audrey's, Emily tells Monica about seeing Jason and Nikolas.
Sarah sends Audrey to bed.  She thinks that Emily is a bit odd.

4. NOW, IF BOBBIE WERE THE SPENCER, THEY'D BE IN A REAL MESS

Bobbie sees Luke in Stefan's bed.  They get the box out.  Luke comments
re: the bed: "Amazingly comfortable for gothic modern."  Lo and behold,
Laura's medallion doesn't open the box.  They decide they need Stefan's
so they drive to the hospital.  Bobbie unlocks the drug room and Luke
comes in with her, rattling on about names till she throws him out.
Alexis gets a whiff of that Damn Cigar and investigates the drug room.
Bobbie comes up with a totallyt lame lie as to why she's there.  Luke and
that Damn Cigar run into Stefan and banter a bit.

Back at the mansion, Bobbie crushes the pills and hides the paraphernalia
in a floral arrangement.  Stefan comes in and she coos "SteFAWN!  I'm so
glad you came home early.  I've been waiting all day for this."
