General Hospital Update for Monday, 13-Dec-1999

Luke wants to go door to door to find Felicia. Roy wants to go to the cops. Roy worries that Luke is playing right into Faison’s hands by not going to the police. He also asks Luke what his motivation is—to have Felicia safely back, or to be her rescuer. Luke decides they will try on their own and meet back in his office in three hours. If they don’t get her by then, they’ll call the police.

Felicia manages to get the door to her cell open while holding a shard of glass to Faison’s throat. Faison tells her he would rather die than see her go. Faison tries to talk Felicia out of slitting his throat—after all it’s messy. She knees him in the gut and runs, but he catches her and drags her back into her cell.

Jax and Sonny continue their talk about getting Jerry out of town. Jax promises Sonny a favor to be named later…Sonny wonders whether he will keep his word or not. Sonny decides he’ll help—as a favor to Brenda.

Nik bursts in on Liz and Jason. He starts to attack Jason physically, when Liz steps in. Nik is shocked that she is taking Jason’s side and lays into her, saying he is surprised that she would let Jason use her. He also tries to bring up Lucky. He has been worried about her since the other day at the hospital when she was looking for Bobbie. Liz tells Nik that he’s not helping by acting this way. Nik continues to berate Jason—after all Lucky died in his building, etc. Liz says “Fine. We’re sleeping together. We were about to make love when you burst in on us. Is that what you want to hear?” She shoves him out of the room.

Carly and Hannah cross paths on the docks. Carly tells Hannah she was with Sonny while he knew Hannah was a fed. She goes on to tell Hannah that Sonny never loved her; it was all an act. Hannah punches Carly, and Taggert comes running up to break things up. He threatens to arrest Carly, who responds by trying to throw around the Quartermaine name. Taggert is not impressed, and Carly sinks lower and lower trying to attack Hannah (saying things like Taggert could do Hannah right there on the pier and Sonny wouldn’t care….that’s a quote.) Taggert finally drives Carly off. Hannah worries that Carly is right, and continues to profess that she loves Sonny to Taggert.

Bobbie and Tony chat at the nurse’s station about Lucas and what to tell him about Jerry now that he’s out on bail. Carly storms up and tries to give Tony a hard time. He holds his own and leaves. Bobbie asks Carly if she’s all right…after the commercial break, Bobbie tells Carly she looks miserable…did Jason break her heart? She assures Carly that no matter what she did, Jason will forgive her. He understands her. Bobbie also warns Carly that she sounds desperate, and we all know what happens when Carly gets desperate. Carly agrees to go home and rest.

Jerry drops by Jax’s penthouse and Jax shows him a suitcase of money. Jerry says, “You found a bribable judge.” Jax replies that the money is for him to make a clean getaway. Jerry doesn’t want a life on the run anymore…he wants a settled life with Bobbie. Jax reminds him that is no longer an option. Jerry will have to think about it.
Nikolas goes to the hospital and bumps in to Laura. He and Laura talk about his worry that he’s just like his father (it’s the anniversary of Stavros’s death). Laura tries to reassure him that he is capable of loving unselfishly and Stavros was nothing like that.

Liz and Jason talk about Nik…he was hurt. Liz was sad that Nik doesn’t know her better by now…she still loves Lucky. She’s sorry she forced Jason to stay at her studio. He offers to go to Sonny for help, but she says she really wants to help him…after all, he’s helped her a bunch of times. Liz and Jason share a cute scene about how he was watching her paint the other day, and her silly habits she didn’t even know she had, like talking and singing to herself.

Bobbie goes to Jerry at Jax’s penthouse. Jerry asks if she still loves him. Bobbie says yes, but she can’t marry him. He suggest grabbing Lucas and running away with him. (Insert a conveniently-timed commercial break here.)

Luke is canvassing the neighborhood where the tracking device was last at. He sees a boutique with a nightdress in the window and runs off. Later, he and Roy meet in his office, and Luke shows that the dress is the same one Felicia’s wearing in Faison’s tape of her. He wants to break into the shop and see if the customer records give them any sort of clue. Roy worries that they are falling into a trap.

Faison taunts Felicia by using her glass “knife” to cut his own hand, and makes her watch him bleed. Felicia yells at him that he’s crazy. Faison’s response: it’s time to rethink our relationship. And he walks out the door.

Sonny bumps into Carly on the docks. Sonny insists that Jason will never forgive either one of them. Carly thinks Jason will get over it—he doesn’t store up his anger like Sonny does. According to Carly, she wants to fix things with Jason…all Sonny wants to do is wallow in it.

Back to Jerry and Bobbie—he’s still talking about running. Bobbie can’t do that to Lucas or Tony…she remembers how she felt when she was worried that Tony would kidnap Lucas. Jerry says it is hard to lose her and he wishes he had handled things differently. He asks her to say goodbye to Lucas for him. She says she treasured their time together and gives him a big kiss. After she leaves, she stops outside the door and tries to compose herself. The last scene of the day is her walking into the elevator and sighing.
