I'm not. In the past Jason has given Monica crumbs that she's pathetically slobbered up. I have no doubt that if there were scenes with the two of them, it would be Monica in tears that Jason has deigned to put his kid first (at least for now) and move in to the Q mansion. No, thank you.

Hey, Gio, just because the door is unlocked doesn't mean you can just walk in without permission. (Side note to Trina and Joss: Keep your front door locked all the time! Good lord.) LOL that Gio thinks being like Curtis is "a huge compliment." You don't know him very well, that's for sure. "You paid off the judge." "You would have been billed for that, so no." Hee. It's so tiresome. At least when he inevitably goes off to help Carly again, Danny will barely notice he's gone. Of course Sasha has a pregnancy test in her purse. GAAAHHHH.

So did the captain get into hot water for not doing anything about the corruption? That scene outside his home after Brady testified was ambiguous to me. Nice to see that a bad cop is one place Maroun draws the line for with her sympathy for the defendants. /s I had to laugh when Price and Maroun were astonished the cop who was supposed to be the fall guy said he wouldn't testify. Why are those two always so stupid? It doesn't say much for the DA's office that this is the level of competence of its staff. Good grief.

That alone should lead to its decertification. /meaner, but I don't care

Is it an overstep? Portia is doing a professional review of Elizabeth's team, actions of which could have led to a patient's death. If I were Elizabeth, I'd definitely have my union rep there to make sure Portia doesn't railroad me into something. We know she has no compunction blaming others. (Not that I think it's Portia's direct fault that Sam died—security at GH sucks if someone can go into a patient's room and inject them with an unordered drug, so that is on her—but she certainly is happy to have someone to point to.) That makes it even worse, IMO. But it's typical of the Corinthii to send someone else (usually Jason) to do their dirty work. All three of these guys are garbage. Lulu is there because GH isn't a long-term care facility. Turning Woods is supposedly the better choice in the area. I don't think it's the Facility that Jax Found, though.

LOL. That's a very soapy thing to think!

LOL at Dex fangirling over QB1. I refuse to believe that the "state-of-the-art training facility" at PCU doesn't have a boxing section. Overreact much, Chase? Entering the penthouse with your gun drawn, even if the door was open, is unnecessary. When LA was playing Kristina, I often felt as if MB spat his lines at her; whenever Sonny called Kristina "sweetheart" it felt like a threat. But with KM, he seems more relaxed. Good grief, Drew is a big baby. Just listen to what Alexis has to say, you pathetic loser. I disagree. Violence is not a proper response, but if anyone were to punch Drew, it should have been that wienie Michael. He needs to talk to Willow no matter what, but of course he doesn't. What a coward. The way she emphasized it by widening her eyes was amazing. Sonny whining about his custody problems with Ava was rich considering he's the one who started the whole thing.

It's probably to remind the viewers that Portia isn't just some generic law-breaking doctor, she's the co–head honcho at GH. Lately I feel like the show is really going hard on people's professional titles, familial relationships, etc., as if we're all new to things.

Same. It's a soap. Of course we aren't going to see the extended rehab Lulu would need IRL. That said, I think we could have seen Lulu be a bit less physical right after coming to. Depends on the person. I can see the family wanting to get it over with. After my dad died, my mom got rid of some stuff immediately. Other stuff she left until she felt emotionally ready. Even IRL, there are undated (and unsigned) wills that are presented in court as legit by heirs, and a judge has to untangle the mess. The show has a lot of leeway here, for a change.

I don't know about Cyrus being the killer. His religious conversion is supposed to be legit. "Thou shalt not kill" is a pretty big commandment to break. How does killing Sam give Laura her family back? The success of the transplant has nothing to do with whether Sam lives or dies afterward. There are other ways to write Cyrus off the show that would make more sense to me. Have him go on a mission or something. Or just don't write for him. He's such a sporadic presence anyway.

Look at Jason, mustering up some human emotion and trying to be a good parent. I wouldn't say that Kristina and Molly have come together. They've put their squabbling aside for the time being. I'm sure Ava's trial will restart that. It really was. Get a union rep, Elizabeth! Portia is the last person to be heading an investigation into Sam receiving digitalis.

Everybody cares more about poor young Scout that her own father does. Drew is the worst.

The actor who plays Leo, Easton Rocket Swede, has autism like Leo does. It's possible the funeral scenes would have been difficult for him for a variety of reasons. I finally realized that Tajh Bellow has resting irritated face, which is unfortunate for where TJ is at the moment, as he always looks unsympathetic/annoyed wherever he is. Ditto. She's in a very awkward position through no fault of her own.

I'd really like to see Dante and the kids all have a good cry together. The kids would see it's okay to have these feelings and that adults have them as well. To cry with your family would comforting, IMO, especially as the kids are so adamant that they are a family.

Whichever kid was walking about Sam giving him and his dad a family (so, Rocco?) had the best remembrance. And the other kid's remembrance—so, Danny—was good. Jason's was so hollow-sounding, considering he dumped his family to save Carly and hers. Alexis's was pretty good. Molly and Kristina's felt a bit pro forma, telling us stuff we didn't see. Carly's and Elizabeth's were okay; at least they acknowledged things were rocky between them and Sam for quite a while. Is Giovanni Mazza on contract? If so, this feels like a minimums appearance. Lucas wasn't at the funeral because one of the boys yelled at him for killing Sam and Lucas decided his presence would only upset everyone. The flashbacks with Sam and Sonny were really gross. Again, I'm really bummed nuLulu didn't stagger into the church: "I'm alive!"
