UPDATE THURSDAY DECEMBER 18

1. SOMEBODY SHOOT THAT KAT!  (TO KILL, THIS TIME, PLEASE?)

Bobbie domes into Nik's room.  Stefan is possibly the worst
"parent-of-a-patient" GH has ever had, throwing his weight around.
He goes off after a mysterious phone call [Your Fearless Updater
assumes about Helena, but we've seen nothing of that yet] and Katherine
asks Bobbie to take herself off the case.  Not surprisingly, Bobbie is
offended: "The worm has certainly turned, hasn't it." Bobbie won't go
unless she hears it from Stefan.

Sarah comes up and wants to see Nikolas, and Bobbie and Katherine say OK.
Sarah has a touching reunion with Nik, who wants kissing.  Meanwhile,
Lucky is talking to Amy about Nik.  Luke comes up and Lucky is worried.
He's not a "real Spencer" because he actually helped to save Nik's life.
Luke doesn't look worried at the little psychopath he's raised, but just
that Lucky is upset at Luke.  Lucky wants to know why would Luke help
Nik?  Luke explains there's a difference between wanting someone dead and
watching them die.

Stefan makes plans for Nikolas' homecoming and Katherine gets all coy
about his using "we."  Somebody shoot her.  Stefan is sappy.  When he
gets into the room he gets all annoyed that Nik can't talk yet, even
though the trache tube has been removed.  Bobbie kicks them all out.

2. TESS IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

Felicia wants to call Tess, but Mac is suspicious of her.  [Tess, that is.]
Meanwhile, Tess is practicing "being sick", but Jimmy wants to bop Mac on
the head anywat.  She just wants to drug him.  All Jimmy has to do is
trust her.  She's gotten Felicia out of the way to a PTA bookfair.  They
call Mac -- Jimmy tells him Tess has overdosed.

Tess's plan doesn't quite go as planned and Mac sees the needle.  Jimmy
conks him out with a hairdryer.  They review jimmy's knowledge of Mac.

Jimmy is behind the bar when Felicia comes in. He sees the note Mac left
to tell her he'd gone, and crumbles it up.  Felicia tells him he never
listens.  Meanwhile, Tess is trussing Mac up for a trip to the woods.

3. BABYBABYBABY

Jason is going over some paperwork and Carly comes down.  She asks if she
is in danger, and he says yes.  She has to move out after the kid comes.
She says she needs to be around him because he knows her and still
accepts her.

Carly offers to help with the accounting.  Tony comes in and asks Jason
if he is the father, and orders Carly out, and tries to throw his weight
around.  Jason just shows how futile and middle-aged he is.  This is
Carly's baby!  He also is still annoyed that Tony said he was too dumb to
take care of himself.

After Tony sputters out, Jason says to Carly: "Tony seems kind of
boring."  He would have thought Carly would have gotten tired of Tony.
Carly says Jason is her best friend.

Alan pops up to A.J. and asks "You knew all along, right?"  He tells A.J.
that Tony and Carly have split up and that Jason is the baby's father.
A.J. asks what Jason has to say about it, and tells Alan that "Carly's a
psychopath."  Alan says that the conversation always comes back to A.J.,
that he's jealous of Jason.

Keisha asks A.J. why Carly would say Jason was the father, and A.J. says
he's going to go ask Jason. At the Penthouse, the henchman starts off to
get Carly's stuff and AJ comes in to see Jason. "I'll wait."
