It’s been a big week for
hair! Tracy’s is quite spunky. She looks like she stepped out of an anime
comic, ready to fight a crazy twenty-legged monster, now being played by
Monica Quartermaine. But back to hair, Kate’s got bangs! I’ve never
liked bangs; I still live in fear of having to grow mine out again someday.
Hers look all right but the bob was better. I also think Mac’s dying his
hair to a darker, sleeker gray. He looks scrumptious!
Cooper’s taking one last
tumble with Maxie and is seemingly revealed as the Text Message Killer and
what are my thoughts? Wow, I like that comforter pattern! And also, he was
NOT acting like a man about to commit suicide. I’m with Maxie; he’s
definitely been murdered and framed and being dead, he can’t defend
himself. I’m presently voting that Logan did it and hoping, if that is the
case, that he can be redeemed someway, somehow. Muzzling Lulu would work
for me. Oh, and Maxie’s grayish blue ensemble? Love it. At least she
looks fabulous while grieving yet again.
Ah, the ranting and
raving of Sonny in a breakdown, how I’ve missed you! He’s moved on from
breaking glass to torching a whole restaurant in his misery. You’ve got to
laugh when he accuses Kate of rejecting him and giving no explanation.
Didn’t he tell her to either say yes or say nothing? I’m intrigued by
Kate’s belief that he doesn’t love her but only Connie—I’m not sure if
that’s true but it’s definitely a new angle. How insulting for him to imply
that she could have had everything by choosing him! Yeah, everything and a
bullet to the head while in childbirth. What a charmer. Oh wait; I did
call him a charmer last week, didn’t I? So I’m fickle; sue me.
For someone who spent
most of his life keeping his hands clean, Trevor’s looking quite dirty
lately. He appeared before Jason with an entourage of goons for threats and
posturing. Of course, it was at the docks, so Trevor might have thought
himself in the clear as all law-abiding citizens stay away from the big, bad
docks right? However, there are no law-abiding citizens in Port Chuck, so
I’m back to where I started--Trevor’s horrible at hiding his ties to the
Zacharras. Plus, he continues to bore me in scenes with Johnny. Why make
him connected to Sonny and Ric if only to share small scenes with them? But
then again, I could ask why give Cooper the last name Barrett if they were
only going to leave us and him hanging on that loose end?
I think Liz is handling
rabid dog Carly quite well. She’s not even raising her voice anymore, just
telling her to get therapy and figure out why she’s obsessed with a child
not her own. I love hearing her reiterate repeatedly that it IS the high
ground to keep a child safe. Each time, she gets a little, “Amen, preach it
sister!” from me. Of course, she’s talking logic, which is not Carly’s
strong suit. Will Carly even see the connection between being raised in the
mob and Michael pulling his own revenge hits? I know I shouldn’t cheer on a
kid with a gun, but I just love that this is being explored. Jay and
not-so-silent Bob, however, I could do without.
So Felicia is gone…for
now. I’m really intrigued to see how she’ll be brought back now that
Kristina Wagner’s on recurring status. I know I’ve defended her and I will
continue to do so (F&F4eva!), but I’m glad Mac got the chance to chew her
out. It certainly hasn’t been fair that he’s had to deal with all their
loves and losses by himself. At the same time, if Frisco called me for
help, I’d be there. Especially if he sang his plea for help, “…all I need
is just a little more time…it seems so hard to believe that you’re all I
need.” I’m swooning and I haven’t listened to that cheesy song since the
80s.
How freaking ridiculous
is it that neither Nik nor Emily is mentioning Spencer in the “to tumor or
not to tumor” storyline? Nikolas can’t say he has nothing to live for.
He’s got a squirmy young Cassadine to raise up in the way of Brooding and
Tortured!
Speaking of brooding and
tortured, I quite enjoy Johnny’s piano playing. It just seems like a gothic
mobster thing to do. If Nikolas does kill himself, then I know a lovely
mansion on a lake that needs a new master. Throw in an obsession with his
sister for bonus points and some inappropriate sibling chemistry and we
might just have ourselves another Cassadine family in the making! I’m
willing to buy that the Zacharras are distant cousins, aren’t you?
I enjoyed watching Leyla
throw Patrick’s scrubs into the bin in the hall. I think her new outlook
is definitely taking the girl closer to heartache, but at least she’s having
fun in the process. Now, we just sit and watch as she buries herself deeper
in love and Patrick throws the last shovelful when he inevitably ditches her
for Robin and the baby. I’m glad we finally got a reason as to why he
doesn’t want children--he’s afraid of making the same mistakes as his
parents. That info would have been helpful months ago! Now, I don’t have
to think Robin and Liz are jerks for giving him a hard time about not
wanting to be a father—he is just afraid of it, really.
New GH drinking game!
Take a shot every time Epiphany says, “This is a hospital, not a dating
service/wrestling ring/Joe Pesci movie.” Take another if she tells anyone
to get back to work. No wonder dearly departed Stanford never called.
Also, is anyone else detecting inappropriate chemistry between her and
Cassius?
