Today’s GH was amazing, I only hope I can do it justice…..


@ Sonny’s
Sonny is still on the phone listening to Brenda breathing. When she won’t speak, she hands the phone to her new friend. He tells Brenda that Sonny won’t go unless he can speak with her. Carly has just come home and her and Jason listen intently to Sonny’s end of the conversation. Brenda tells her friend to tell Sonny that this is about Louis Alcazar and it is in his best interests to meet her at the church. Sonny agrees and hangs up the phone. Carly looks at him worriedly and quickly busies herself while Sonny tells Jason that he will ride with him, just in case. After Jason leaves, Sonny assures Carly that although he is aware this could be a trap, he has to end it tonight.

@ Roy’s
Roy is on the phone with Alcazar telling him that everything has been arrange and it will happen tonight. Alcazar tells Roy that he doesn’t want assurances, he wants results. If he doesn’t kill Sonny, Felicia will die.

@ Dock’s
One of Alcazar’s men approaches and tells him they have a lead on Brenda. She could be anywhere, but they have men canvassing the area looking for her. Alcazar assumes that Brenda is trying to contact Sonny and Jax and warn them.

@ Jason’s
Jason comes down the stairs and announces to Liz that he is leaving and isn’t sure when he will be back. Jokingly, Liz tells him that at least she knows he isn’t going to the yacht, because its now in the bottom of the harbor. Jason informs her that he did not do that. She believes him and asks if he can tell her what he’s doing tonight. To change the subject, Jason suggests a game of pool. During the game they begin a discussion of Jason’s job and Liz wonders if he ever thinks about it being dangerous or that something might happen. He tells her that this is his job and he is good at it. He is fully aware of the risks involved. Liz asks him what he remembers about her finding him shot in the snow. Jason tells her that he remembers her yelling at him and telling him to walk and how much it hurt but he also knew that she was saving his life. Liz reminds Jason that if she had not gone for a walk that day, they would not be having this conversation, Jason responds by saying that it is not wrong to care about someone that way. But that is something he can’t give her.

@ Sonny’s
Carly and Sonny have apparently called Michael to say goodnight. After they get off the phone, Carly reminds her husband that this could easily be a trap. She distracts herself from falling apart on him by trying to pick out a bottle of wine. She asks Sonny to accept that she is being supportive of him, so she won’t hug him and beg him not to go. Sonny doesn’t believe her theory, but he reassure her that he loves her.


@ St. Timothy’s
Brenda arrives at the church and stands in the pouring rain, mocking its irony. Smiling, she laughs joyously to herself, quietly and lets the rain pour over her.

@ Jason’s
Jason tells Liz that after tonight she will be able to go back home. Liz isn’t sure whether or be happy or not. She enjoys staying at Jason’s and compares it to her studio. She asks Jason if he will miss her when she leaves. He says he will. When asked if he will miss her enough to pick up the phone and ask her out, to take her riding or will he go back to avoiding her, Jason tells her that he doesn’t know what will happen. He tells her that she is so beautiful, talented and smart and that she makes him see things he has never seen before. She also has big dreams that he can support and admire because he doesn’t have any of his own, but what can he give her besides pool lessons and bike rides? Liz tells him that he listened to her when no one else would, he trusted her to live her own life, when she didn’t even trust herself. He makes her happy and makes her feel free. She embraces him in a hug.

@ Sonny’s
Sonny is preparing to leave and Carly asks about the significance of the church. Sonny thinks that its because the woman is new in town and St. Timothy’s is in a central location. Carly asks him to say a prayer for himself when he gets to the church. He prays for anyone else, but not for himself. Sonny tells her that he will try. She jokes about his inability to say things like, I’m wrong Carly, you’re right, or Can we discuss this Carly? He responds by telling that he was wrong about all the times he said he didn’t need her. He asks if they can discuss the fact that they will spending the next 50 years together. Carly gets teary-eyed and they start kissing. Jason interrupts them telling Sonny that its time to go. Carly and Sonny say a tearful goodbye and Sonny tells her that he loves her and leaves.

@ St. Timothy’s
Brenda enters the church and slowly walks down the aisle. She approaches the altar and smiles to herself. Brenda is approached by the priest and asks if she should leave. He tells her that he is not going anywhere, she can stay as long as she likes and if she needs anything to just hollar. Before he leaves, Brenda asks him if she seems rational to him. He says yes and she explains her illness and how sometimes she doesn’t know if she making her own decisions or if her illness is. She tells the priest that she almost got married five years ago to the man she is supposed to meet tonight. The priest suggest that she examine her motives. She tells him that she needs to warn him about something and wants to see him.

@ Sonny’s
Carly is setting the table when Liz knocks at the door. Carly lets her in and Liz tells Carly that she has been staring out at a storm worrying about Jason. Could they help each other get through this, worrying about the people they care about? Carly thinks Liz just wants a typical cat fight, but before Liz leaves, Carly has a change of heart and asks her if she knows anything about yellow peppers. She explains that this is her one chance to prove to Sonny that she can cook, so will Liz show her how to slice it up?

@ Limo
Jason explains to Sonny that with the rain it will be almost impossible to spot any possible snipers. He asks Sonny if he is sure he wants to do this. He reminds his boss that he now has a family who think he is the world. He needs to be sure this is what he needs to do.

@ Sonny’s
Liz tries a hand at a civilized conversation with Carly about how she deals with Sonny’s life because at the moment she doesn’t seem fazed. Carly explains that Sonny’s business is his problem, but her fears are hers.

@ St. Timothy’s
The priest comes back and tells Brenda that she can still stay while he does some paperwork. She starts to vent to him by saying that she is responsible for everything that’s happened. She has tried to think about her actions and the consequences they have on the people she loves, but they always seem to backfire. The priest tells her that as long as she is thinking about others, she is on the right path. She thanks the priest and tells him that he her friend is not coming, because he always leaves her standing in the rain.

@ Limo
Jason and Sonny begin a heated argument about Sonny’s order that Jason remain behind for 10 minutes. Jason thinks it is an unnecessary risk and that he is starting to take it personally. Damn right I am, Sonny replies and explains that he has to make Alcazar pay for trying to ruin his life. Jason reluctantly agrees and Sonny mentions that the last time he was here was when he was to marry Brenda.

@ Sonny’s
Carly suggests that Liz figure out what she needs from Jason and what she can handle about his life, because she doesn’t want to see Jason get hurt. Carly and Liz thank each other for their help and Liz leaves.

As Carly lites a candle, Sonny begins walking through the rain to the doors of the church. Roy is lurking behind a tree, as Brenda turns from the altar and walks toward the door. As Carly takes a sip of wine, the glass crashes to the floor as the door to the church opens and Brenda and Sonny are face to face for the first time in five years. A stunned Sonny stares at Brenda and is unaware that Roy is behind him and raises his gun. Brenda smiles and begins to approach Sonny as Roy fires.
