I changed my mind! This dis is the best thing about GH today🤣🤣🤣 What I wouldn't give to hear Tracy say this about/to Sam (I think Nelle is too young to have seen Flashdance?). She has the appropriate contempt for Jasam as well as more experience dealing with Jasam than Nelle. I'm really disappointed with the way Tracy's brief return was wasted. She didn't use her talents/skills to clean up Michael's mess re: Nelle and rub it in his face that "this is how adults with experience at ELQ take care of things," she didn't interact with Lulu, reminisce/argue with Monica, or even have a real conversation with Finn.

This is why I hate the characterization of Lulu as a "reporter." She's exactly as you describe. Aside from the "catch the guy who's breaking into women's homes" thing that introduced Dev, I believe every story she's gone after is a sensationalist one that is connected to her circle of family/friends in some way. She's not a journalist. I will give the Show credit in that I did laugh today at Sam giving Nelle bitchface and Nelle's "See ya, roomie" in response.

She walked into the Metrocourt restaurant and overheard Julian talking to Olivia about it because he wanted to take Leo to Lucas and Brad's "party."

Yup, that's a given with Nelle. I was again just blown away by how incredibly stupid Brad was to willingly tell her where Wiley is, and that it didn't occur to him his honesty would put Wiley in danger, not to mention Willow. In TJ's place, I would have been annoyed by Sam's behavior before Molly even started her rant because of her friend's upcoming wedding. If they were already engaged and wanted to share that news with you Sam, they would. There are days when it's really hard to decide which Mob moll gets the prize for being the most hypocritical, annoying, obnoxious and intrusive, Sam or Carly. I hope the brothers' conversation helped Finn decide he and Anna are done. I would find it far more believable if Finn said Violet keeps asking for her mommy. She hasn't lived with Finn and Anna nearly long enough to consider Anna's place "home." The one thing that surprised me was Lucas remembering Brad's confession in the last couple moments of the show - I really thought that would be the ending cliffhanger for Friday.

I knew Valentin was a fakeout before he "saw" Nina run in and yell at him that he would never see her or Charlotte again. NO WAY would he shoot Jax at point blank range in front of teenage Josslyn and upstanding teacher Dustin (or any reliable witnesses). Script error: Valentin said on the phone to Charlotte "nothing Daddy can't fix." He and Charlotte always refer to him as "Papa." Has Valentin always had that big tattoo? I assume he's going to just be talking to a figment of his imagination in a red dress/coat and we'll never actually get to see Helena's face or hear her respond. Brad gets stupider by the day. As does Sam. I don't get what Epiphany means by "my people" but I liked her reprimanding/yelling at Jasam. WTG, Finn. I don't feel sorry for Anna. If she never actually thought that protecting Peter would bring consequences, she's just as bad as Sam. Peter is an adult who has chosen to lie and commit crimes like Jason; Violet is an innocent little girl like Danny or Scout and needs to be protected. Today she strongly reminded me of Sam with all the weeping and attempts to justify her actions and wanting Finn to give Peter the benefit of the doubt out of love for her. Ummm...he already went into a dangerous situation and saved Peter's life for your sake, Anna.

It wasn't concern. She's just a bully; she's been rude to me in other scenarios in the class as well (not about my body) and sometimes tries to butt in to conversations I'm having with other classmates. So I rarely acknowledge her existence and I walk away if she's approaching anyone I'm friendly with,etc. I think she's a very entitled person, although I have wondered if she does not like a younger white woman being friends with/friendly with with her "sisters." ETA: I agree with you that it's not Kate's job to dress to make other people comfortable. MBayGal's comment seemed to me to imply that Kate/overweight women in a scenario involving wearing bathing suits are deliberately dressing "inappropriately" to target people who feel like she does about seeing their bodies in swimwear. That is both a really rude and absurd implication, and the truth is a woman may wear whatever bathing suit she wants in a scenario and doesn't owe anyone an apology. If another person is uncomfortable with the situation, they can leave (unless they are the owner of that pool/beach/resort.

I just laughed so much at Sam's outrage over not getting her deal as she tried to help in "bringing a murderer to justice!!" because Robert's boss(es) don't want to work with the Mob after the Mob is responsible for the recent surge in violence. Robert's sorry (but not for you) attitude is also amusing. I rolled my eyes that Sam wants to run away with Jason and the kids because their life is so unfairrrrr..... That crying, simpering face of hers as Jason comforted her is just as loathsome as when Carly cries and whines about whatever is going on with her family. Show, making Anna be Luke Skywalker in her desire to turn Peter aka Darth Vader to the good side because he never had a fair life as Faison's son is such a bad look for her. I'm surprised Finn didn't get any of CF/Princess Leia's lines verbatim today. Peter did look worried when Robert told him Anna can't protect him from Jason. @GHScorpiosRule you need to watch this episode to hear Robert say, "Congratulations, you've protected a murderer" to Anna. I also laughed a lot at Valentin's WTF face and shock/outrage that he's not related to Alexis. Maxie is super annoying trying to demand answers of Jax about the kiss with Nina ... and what is that shapeless black dress/robe/whatever that she's wearing in the workplace?? Preview: Good to see Finn standing up for himself and Anna crying in the preview.

I think it actually first started when she was fan girling over/had a fling with Noah's doppelganger, Eli Love. That was awful. While I hated the #JusticeForDuke b.s., at least that was somewhat believable because of Anna's history with Duke.

Nope; he had just told them he was going to present the provided info for their deal. He wouldn't be doing her a favor right now, since he and Anna were angry with each other when he left her place and the last exchange at her door between Peter and Robert was hardly friendly. So true. I wanted the parole officer to accompany Robert when he saw them kissing in that exam room and be like, "Parole revoked."

Has Sam taken lessons from Brenda in how to wear sleeves?? She acted like a bratty, impatient teenager with Robert and Jason, so I legit laughed out loud that Robert announced to them "The deal's off." Valentin is kinda tolerable with Alexis. She was good with both him and with Nik. Her mentioning her brothers surprised me. I don't buy for a second that Franco has ever thought about finances re: Cameron going off to college. Is Nik hoping Ava will cheat on him with Franco, thus voiding their deal? I'm astonished that Brook Lynn Ashton/Quartermaine had a serious scene and was good in it. Her appeal to Sonny to have last moments of grace with Mike instead of trying to force a cure was well done.

He is, however, friends with her mother Alexis. He's already voiced concern about Violet's safety and Anna's judgement regarding Peter. He doesn't want Anna to suffer the fallout from covering for Peter (e.g. career, family's trust). Yet Anna won't listen to him out of a blinding case of very misplaced guilt. Now after their AA meeting, Finn wants to know what Alexis is thinking about/holding inside and she spells out that she's worried about her daughter Sam, and why. She says "from your lips" and he replies, "Exactly." I don't think Finn gives a damn about Sam or Jason personally, but he cares plenty about Violet, Anna and Alexis. I interpreted his resolve to "betray" Anna as an effort to be a good/protective father to Violet, to save Anna from herself, and also do what he can to take away a big stress factor in the life of his friend the recovering alcoholic, Alexis.

I want Robert, or someone to point out to Anna that when Maxie sounds like Anna in her defensiveness, you know there's a serious problem of judgement. Sonny mumbled so much I have no idea what was going on with the end of the phone conversation - Show lost me after Sonny said he intended to see his dad but then he was unable to do so.

I see Carly was talking to/at Brando in an exam room, and my first thought was, "he already got shot for her, hasn't he suffered enough?" It's so gross that she wants leverage against him and his mom. Glad that Robert gave Anna crap for pressuring/demanding that he look the other way regarding Peter since he's done it for her and other agents in the past. That argument *might* work if Peter had ever served/worked for the WSB - is she getting medication that causes stupidity/memory failure in her tea? I can't tell if that last moment was Peter glaring at Robert or giving him a look of "are you betraying my mother?"

I think she was calculating in her scene with Lucas, to make sure she, not Nelle, would be the one to take care of Wiley until Lucas has recovered. She lets Lucas know that Brad has been erratic/can't be trusted, so he makes a decision without consulting Brad to hire her. Brad has yet to show any sort of backbone where Nelle is concerned because he's afraid. Now if Nelle shows up somewhere and tries to hold/take care of Wiley and Brad doesn't shut her down, Willow can go tattle to Lucas about Brad's poor judgement regarding their son's safety.

If so, it would be something like Sam shows up at Anna and Finn's place with Scout or both kids, and claims she would love for them to have a play date with Violet. While the kids are off playing, Sam starting snooping around looking for evidence against Peter while Anna and/or Finn are out of the room for whatever reason. And then if she finds what she wants, turns around and yells at Anna 'how dare you protect your son, with his history, when he continues to endanger other people?" ... because I'm not lucky enough for a bolt of lightning to come down and strike Sam as soon as she opens her hypocritical mouth.

My gut says Emma being all positive about "Uncle Peter" is a set-up for Anna's poor judgement to come crashing down on her when the truth comes out. I expect Robert and especially Robin will be furious that Anna has been protecting Peter and ignoring the obvious out of guilt instead of giving Robin the heads up to protect Emma and Noah from getting attached to someone who should not be a role model/a trusted family member. I chalk up Emma's "attachment" to Peter to her worship of her grandmother and also a misguided attempt to fill the void of lack of family on the West Coast. She always had extended family to love and protect her when she lived in Port Charles. Seems like Violet playing with Anna and Peter, then Maxie stupidly beaming as Peter spoke about being a part of Anna's family is also a set-up for Anna and Peter to be taken down/lose loved ones by their own actions being revealed. Weren't you at all amused by the bitchface Sam gave Finn as he was leaving Kelly's and made the "how's that working for you with Jason" comment. I'm sure it's rather inconvenient to her delusional self-image that she does in fact endanger her two children by choosing the relationship with Jason. I rolled my eyes that Jason and Sam seem to think that they can pressure/manipulate Finn into helping them take down Peter.

The only thing that made me laugh/smile today was seeing Peter's bitchface in the preview over Maxie hugging Spinelli about his moving back news.

Because he enjoys thinking of himself, the "godfather" as Wiley's savior while Uncle Lucas (the responsible one of Brucas) is incapacitated. Jason and then Sonny thought of themselves as Michael's saviors when he was baby/little kid, so he has learned all about acting inappropriate from them as well as his mother. I feel the worst for Willow in all this. She is the one who was traumatized, then saved herself and eventually faced down her rapist in court and went to jail, and is now very worried and feeling more and more attached every day to a kid who is not her biological child ... ALL because Brad is a low-life who won't tell the truth and feels he and Lucas are the only people in the world who matter (besides his friend Britt). Brad better watch out when Chase finds out the truth. I feel bad for Lucas, too. I don't feel anything for Michael, so I guess that is a fail for the writers.

I'm under the impression that the only moms he knows are Delilah and Katherine. Prior to the affair reveal, comments he made spelled out that he didn't like/respect Katherine because in his mind she was too much of a downer adult. Delilah is his close friend who made him feel taken care of on a hard day, so it's not surprising (just sad and pathetic) that he would declare her the best mom he knows. Have Delilah and Eddie acknowledged to anyone that they were going to leave their families for each other? I thought the friends group only knew about the affair - not that John committing suicide nixed the lets-abandon-our-spouses-and-kids idea.

Is this too many words for a T-shirt?

Does whining to/asking Spinelli to do the PI work count?

I just wanted you to realize this is correct, you didn't actually need a longer explanation. Carly decides she isn't able to leave a child if she is actively working to withhold someone else's child from them because she deems only herself and her partner at the time as the "safe" choice. When it's her own kids, she's not concerned about it unless someone else decides to go for custody for the kid's own safety. For example, she voluntarily left Morgan at boarding school for how many years? She never, ever referenced missing him or going to see him and then SORASed 19-year-old Morgan said he rarely or never saw his parents. Josslyn was out of the picture indefinitely "visiting Jax" in the past and Carly had an out of sight, out of mind attitude. I have joked before that Carly could text Joss angrily wondering where Avery's toy is and Joss would be like "Mom, I have no idea. I've been living in Australia with Dad permanently for a year now, since the judge wanted to make a decision about custody and you never responded."

Nelle already went down that staircase once, during her baby shower. I don't think they'd have the same person go down twice. Maybe the next time it will be Sasha getting knocked down the stairs by Nelle.

Nina's own mother almost murdered her so I don't think attempted murder of two people phases her much. Also, she didn't have a normal adult development and healthy relationships in her life due to being in a coma for ....how many years was it? I think she was in her early/mid 20s (?) when she was married to Silas and found out she was pregnant.

A) Agree, unless he's trying to take down Sonny a la Dante undercover when DZ first came on the show. That line from Gladys about Brando being too brave (saving Carly wasn't the first time he's been in danger?) made me wonder. B) I do NOT want Jax to have a previously unknown kid turn up, since that's been used for Sonny, Scotty, Alexis, etc. It would undermine Jax's character and I do not want to see Josslyn acting like a more bratty teenager because she's competing for Jax's attention. Do you remember how Michael behaved upon no longer being Sonny's eldest during the "Dante is your son" reveal and aftermath? I would much prefer Jax get a previously unknown niece/nephew via Jerry, a half-sibling (maybe Lady Jane gave up a kid for adoption before she got married) or a cousin he's heard of but never met.
