The Rain Collector
9 Crimes
Armed with a
net and holding no small amount of trepidation, Luke had headed into the
boathouse ready to do battle with furry, bandit-faced barbarians at the behest
of his beloved Spanky—who is surprisingly squeamish at the thought of fanged
vermin in her vicinity, considering her upbringing. Luke is flabbergasted to
find instead his niece, flopping helplessly on the floor like a trout, bound,
gagged, and sorely in need of a blow-dry.
It’s a golden opportunity for freedom, but Heather has the luck of a
drunken Irishman. She spirits her
hostage to Spoon Island and stashes herself and said hostage in the stables, which are fast
becoming the place to see and be seen in this town. Carly makes another desperate move just as
Emma, Spencer, and Cameron show up for a playdate – and Heather’s amorality
knows no bounds when she tells them a terrible lie explaining why she’s there.
Back on the
mainland, Franco scuttles to Kiki’s house, having gotten wind that Anna Devane
is after him with a pair of handcuffs—and not in the good way. Kiki wants to help, but she questions her decision
when Michael tells her about the new evidence that surfaced. Franco insists he’s being framed – and Kiki
thinks she might have an idea as to who’s behind it. Things get even more
complicated as Kiki wrestles with lying to Michael, Dante shows up with questions,
Kelly’s Diner is swarmed by the PCPD, and Michael finds himself unsure as to
whether Kiki might not be hiding something from him.
J’ai Deux Amours
It’s a new
experience for Felix to be in the doghouse – he having chained Brad there more
times than a canine pees on trees – but now he’s feeling the forced
introspection that comes with a freezing-out.
Having yet again inappropriately blurted confidential information in a
public space (and been inconveniently overheard), he’s still worried about
Sabrina and how the information about her baby will shake out. However, when he’s
allowed to bound forth from exile again, is attention is fully focused on a
date with Brad, which they both look forward to with eager anticipation. It’s a total surprise to Brad, then, when he
meets another young man with whom he has a lot in common, and whose frank
interest in him is a refreshing compliment.
Lucas meets
Julian Jerome, the man of two faces and his biological father, and at the same
time meets his long-lost sister, Samantha McCall. It’s his first day back in Port Charles, and
already the snowball has reached proportions of a pissed-off elephant. He has a
long talk with Mama Barbara about how it would have been good if he had known
about these family jewels before hitting town.
6 Days
Now that the
painful and long-buried story of Nina has come into the light again, Silas sits
an already-overwhelmed Kiki down and tells her all of it. While Kiki is
processing the information, word is announced that the new Chief of Staff has
been chosen, and none of the doctors on the short list are prepared for this
introduction. However, Silas has other,
more pressing issues on his mind.
Nathan is
bent on putting Silas away, but Anna warns him that he doesn’t have unlimited
time or resources to put towards this case; there are other crimes to solve and
other criminals to apprehend. So he
needs to find something definitive or let it go – and letting go is clearly not
one of Nathan’s character traits.
Sam is
convinced there’s more to the story than Nathan’s ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’
version, and being quite a good PI, follows up on leads until she finds someone
who might know a few details about how Nina ended up in that coma. A figure from Silas’ past has some key
information, which is relayed to both
Sam and Nathan – information that causes more suspicion and may give Nathan the
ammunition he needs to get what he wants.
Without You
Like
everyone else at GH, Britt reels when she finds out who the new CoS is, and she
reacts with fury, almost resigning as sweeping changes affect everyone at the
hospital. Nik, however, dissuades her from such a rash decision and encourages
her to stick things out. The PCPD, being
in a swarming mood this week, descends on GH – Anna having some idea how the
CoS was chosen, and uncaring that said CoS is most displeased with the
encroachment on the hospital.
To her
dismay, Britt learns of Dante and Lulu’s separation, and puts aside her outrage
about work and picks up her guilt instead, urging Lulu to try and save her
marriage. And although Lulu has a
stalwart and strong shoulder on which to cry over her current straits, she does
share a poignant moment with her husband that gives them both some hope.
Sinnerman
After
overhearing some key information, Morgan reluctantly purges to Julian and Ava,
fully aware that he is putting lives in grave danger by doing so. This isn’t a
game anymore, but he has no idea how to pry himself out of this sinkhole. And
if he asked for help, who would trust him?
Things start unraveling as Duke, whose actions of late have piqued Anna’s
spidey-sense, walks straight into trouble on the docks. But the tables turn with dizzying speed with
new arrivals on the scene, and Sonny finds his worst fears are realized. Now,
he only has to decide what to do about it.
