Secrets & Lies: Episode 12 Tuesday, October 31, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler Produced by: Ryan Chandler Opening Video Tracy flings open the door prepared to throw a fit but is stopped dead in her tracks when she sees Luke is actually there. He kept his promise. Luke asks Tracy to come sit lay with him and drink some of Edward’s wonderful champagne. Intrigued, Tracy does just that. Luke opens up to Tracy saying that for too long he’s been sidetracked with his infatuation with Skye and ignored her. Luke apologizes to Tracy for putting her second. Inside she feels so warm. “This is everything I’ve wanted him to say to me,” she says to herself. Tracy doesn’t let herself get too taken aback by Luke’s behavior tonight. “This isn’t you Luke. This isn’t who you are. Why are you doing this?” “I thought this is what you wanted,” he replies. “The only thing I want is for you to be yourself. While it’s nice to come home and see rose petals everywhere and have a nice relaxing bath and everything, I don’t expect this from you because I know this is not who you are. I don’t need the roses and champagne and all that jazz. That’s not who I am either.” For the first time tonight, Luke genuinely feels connected to Tracy. He finally sees that she loves him just the way he is. Jason is surprised when Sonny shows up at his door. Jason questions why Sonny isn’t out with the kids taking them trick or treating. Sonny says that they’re with Carly at Wyndemere. Sonny asks if Jason has been drinking, which he denies. Sonny tells Jason that he’s there to help him move on. Jason says he doesn’t want to move on. Contrary to what people may say, he does feel and mourn just like everyone else. He wants Sam in his life, but he can’t have her. Jason yells as Sonny for telling him to “move on” and reducing his love for Sam. Sonny says he isn’t reducing Jason’s love for Sam. He knows what it’s like to lose someone he loves, but sooner or later he has to move on with his life. He also can’t go around blowing up at people just because he feels like it. Sonny tells Jason that his attitude towards Alexis needs to change fast. He’s not going to allow the mother of his child to be disrespected the way that she was when they were at the cemetery. Sonny tells Jason to take some time off to get his life back together. At GH, Robin sees Lainey giving away Halloween Candy to the children who visited the hospital. When she’s done, Robin signals for Lainey to come over and asks her for some advice. Robin explains that Patrick continues to act like he wants to be with her, but in the same breath will flirt shamelessly with Jamie. After Lainey learns what happened between Patrick and Jamie in the locker room, she asks Robin why she didn’t believe Patrick. Robin gives her some tired excuse about the facts speaking for itself, but Lainey suggests that Robin learn to trust Patrick and not always assume the worst about him. While the kids are playing together at Wyndemere, Carly uses some alone time and calls Lucas. As usual he doesn’t pick up his phone, so Carly leaves him a very angry voicemail message. Carly: Listen little brother. You and I need to talk about Bobbie. I know that you and her are having issues right now, but there is no excuse for letting her stay in lockup as long as she did. Don’t think that just because you’re avoiding me that I won’t see you. Did you forget that you live across the hall from Jason? We are so going to have a face to face meeting. Oh, and I love you. At the Quartermaine’s, Luke walks over to Tracy with a weird look on his face. Tracy isn’t sure what to make of it so she begins to back up. Luke chases her around the couch before grabbing her by the shoulders and kissing her. Tracy fights it at first, and then gives into her passion for Luke. The two kiss passionately, wanting to rip each others clothes off at that very second, but Luke takes a different approach. Instead, he slowly undoes Tracy's robe, taking in every part of her body. He slowly moves in for another kiss, taking Tracy down to the floor with him. To close out the show, a montage featuring “Faces of the Heart” by Dave Koz plays as Luke makes love to his wife. Sonny, Carly, Alexis, Nikolas and the kids go through the candy the children received during trick or treating. Lucas checks his voicemail but doesn’t call Carly back. Jason grabs a picture of he and Sam and reminisces about their time together. To close out the show, Luke whispers to Tracy that he loves her as she lays her head on his chest. On the next GH: Secrets & Lies- Luke and Tracy’s private night is discovered by their children. Lucky and Jason have a confrontation at General Hospital Skye isn’t happy when Edward shoots down her "hypothetical" suggestion that she and Alcazar get married. Monica gets an e-mail from her special online friend

Secrets & Lies: Episode 11 Monday, October 30, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler Produced by: Ryan Chandler Opening Video When Tracy opens the door to her home, she is very surprised by what she sees. She looks around and notices dim lights, soft music playing and rose petals leading up the stairs. Intrigued, she follows the trail all the way to the bathroom. When she opens the door she sees candles all around, with a bottle of champagne and note. The note reads “Get in”. Continuing to play along, Tracy sheds her clothing and gets into the tub. There, she reads the second part of the note that reads “Put this on, then push play on the remote,” referring to the eye mask. Tracy does what the note says and presses play on the remote. At the PCCC, Dillon shows Lucas a layout of a house he was checking out online. It’s close to campus and would be able to allow all of the teens to live together. Lucas tells Dillon that he was quite happy living in Carly’s old penthouse with him, Brandon and Lulu but if he wants out he can leave. Dillon tries to promote this new house as the “it” place, but Lucas isn’t buying it. The mysterious man that has been communicating with Alan looks out his window as the plane he’s on descends into Port Charles. It’s been a while since he’s been here. Things have changed and he’s sure the people have changed a lot too. Will they be happy to see him? He hopes so. His thoughts are interrupted when the captain asks all of the passengers to turn off their electronic equipment. The man smiles to himself as he has something to look forward too. The “Dating for Doctors” website arranged for him to meet “BCSurvivorMD” at the MetroCourt later on in the week. When the pilot issues his final request, the man complies. “Port Charles here I come,” says the man. Nikolas awakens to the sound of people talking outside his door. He puts on a shirt and walks into the den to find Alexis and Lucky speaking. Her eyes, which are bloodshot red, lock with Nikolas’ and a pain hits his heart. “Has something happened to Kristina or Molly? What’s wrong? Tell me!” he yells as the worst case scenario runs through his mind. “No,” says Alexis. “Kristina and Molly are fine for now. I just had a run in with Helena and she really got to me.” Lucky tells Nikolas that since Liz is staying at Audrey’s for a few days, that he’s returning to his apartment for a while. Lucky says goodbye to Alexis and Nikolas, then leaves Wyndemere. When he’s gone, Alexis regains her composure, asking Nikolas to apologize to Lucky for her and for Nikolas to forgive her for being such a mess. Nikolas allows his aunt to share her fears with him regarding Helena. He tells her that Helena will pay for what she’s done to his family. Nikolas says that though they are both angry with Helena for robbing them of the chance to have a strong relationship with Sam, they cannot allow her to create chaos in their lives anymore. Back at the Quartermaine Mansion, Tracy gets lost in her relaxing atmosphere. She is startled when she senses the presence of another person. Lifting up her eye mask, she sees Luke standing near the side of the tub. Tracy tells him to leave but he says that he must say. Luke tells Tracy to relax and allow him to take care of her for the night. Though she’s hesitant to allow him to do it, Tracy says to herself “What the hell. Why not?” Luke changes the song playing on the stereo before grabbing the sponge lying next to her legs. He gently rubs the sponge across her neck and shoulders before slowly moving down to her arms. He asks Tracy to scoot down into the water and kick her legs up. She complies, and then Luke goes down near her legs. He drops rose petals into the water and begins massaging her feet. He tells her to meet him downstairs in 10 minutes. She tells him that he’d better not stand her up. He promises his “spankybuns” that he’ll be there. When he exits the bathroom, Luke grabs the basket of rose petals and leaves another trail going into the living room. He then grabs Edward’s most expensive bottle of champagne, laughing to himself saying that Edward’s gonna have a fit. Luke lights 3 candles then puts the stereo on standby, preparing for Tracy’s entrance. Tracy slowly makes her way downstairs. She tells herself that Luke is just playing games with her and probably ran away to go save a monkey in South Africa or something. After working herself into a tizzy, Tracy flings open the door prepared to throw a fit when she is stopped dead in her tracks. On the next General Hospital: Secrets & Lies – Luke and Tracy make love Lucas and Carly get into an argument regarding Bobbie Robin confides in Lainey her problems with Patrick Sonny gives Jason some tough love

Secrets & Lies: Episode 10 Saturday, October 28, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler Produced by: Ryan Chandler Opening Video Patrick opens his robe, pulls open the shower door and says “I’m here...” The woman in the shower screams! Much to Patrick’s shock, it’s Jamie, not Robin who’s in the shower. Patrick turns around very embarrassed about what he’s done. Jamie asks him to hand her a towel. “I promise I won’t peek,” says Patrick devilishly before apologizing. Jamie finally comes out and begins arguing with Patrick. Patrick tells Jamie that he didn’t know that she was in the shower and she calls him a liar. Patrick says he doesn’t have to defend himself. Obviously it wasn’t all bad, she finally got see what she’s wanted to see since she got to town. Jamie slaps Patrick as Robin walks in. At the Quartermaine Mansion, Luke has Cook prepare a special meal for him and Tracy. He arranges for all of the Quartermaine’s to be out of the house so he and his wife can have the entire Mansion to themselves. Carly gets out of her car angry that she has to get Bobbie. Mac is surprised when Carly shows up at the PCPD. She asks if Bobbie has been arraigned and Mac says yes. He tells Carly that Lucas was supposed to be here hours ago but has yet to arrive. “I received a call from Brandon,” Carly says, “telling me that my mother was arrested and I needed to bail her out.” Carly says that her mother’s bail has been posted and is here to pick her up. Mac arranges for Detective Cruz to take her to Bobbie. “What? No ‘how could you do it Mac’? No blaming me for arresting her?” asks Mac. “No Mac. I know that you did this as a last resort and I apologize that you had to do this.” Carly signals to Cruz that she’s ready and he takes her to Bobbie. After Carly leaves, Mac is surprised by Felicia, who shows up with tickets to see the Giants game on Sunday. Elsewhere, Carly sees Bobbie crying as she’s walking to her cell. Carly sees how much her mother needs her, and decides to put off her plans to help her mother get better. Dillon walks into the Port Charles Community Center looking for Lucas. Eventually he finds him on the basketball court. When Dillon opens the doors, he sees Lucas (now played by Justin Bruening) taking off his sweat-soaked shirt. Dillon is unable to take his eyes off the toned, muscular body of Lucas. For a minute, Dillon even forgets what he came there for. “If you stare at him any longer, I’d think you were burning a whole through him,” says Maxie as she startles Dillon. Dillon is angry for Maxie for startling him, and doesn’t even try to hide it. “You can’t just walk up to people and scare them,” snaps Dillon. “You should know better. What if I had turned around and punched you as a reflex?” “You would have gotten your ass kicked by my cousin Lucas. Oh, and I would have had you arrested for assaulting the Police Commissioners’ daughter,” says Maxie is a bitchy tone. “Chill out though dude. I didn’t mean to interrupt your eyeballing of my cousin.” Robin demands to know what’s going in the locker room. Patrick tries to explain but Robin tells him she doesn’t want to hear him speak. Jamie tells her side of the story and makes Patrick out to be in the wrong. Robin apologizes for Patrick. He snaps at Robin, saying he doesn’t need her to apologize for him. Jamie says that she’s repeatedly stated she has no interest in Patrick, yet situations like this continue to happen. She says that any further incidents will be reported to Alan and she will file a formal complain. Jamie grabs her things and leaves the locker room as Robin begins arguing with Patrick. She gives an evil smile when she leaves the room. Dillon denies that he was eyeballing Lucas, but Maxie continues to tease him about it. Eventually Dillon begins to ignore Maxie and she goes away. A part of Dillon is happy to know that Maxie doesn’t have enough brain cells to think anything beyond Dillon possibly being angry at Lucas, another part of him realizes just how stupid she is too. Back at the Quartermaine Mansion, Luke hears Tracy’s car pull up. He peeks through the window and sees that his wife appears to be having a rough day. Luke does a quick check to make sure everything is in place. Hearing her footsteps get closer to the door, Luke takes a deep breathe and hopes for the best. On the next General Hospital: Secrets & Lies – Luke surprises Tracy with a romantic evening Dillon pitches an idea to Lucas regarding their living arrangements. The mystery man lands in Port Charles. Alexis turns to Nikolas for support.

2 Recasts Revealed! + Kimberlin Brown News!! by Tu Morrow Last week SENN reported that the roles of Lucas Jones and Brandon Wexler were being recasted. We can now 100% confirm that Justin Bruening (Jamie, AMC) has been cast as Lucas Jones. When asked why Justin was chosen, co-headwriter Venus Stone-Cutter said "Justin has a great personality. He's good looking, intelligent and we believe that he will grow into the role every easily." Sources close to the set say that GH's casting department will be undergoing a shake-up if the next few roles cast don't pan out too well. Jay Kenneth Johnson was a frontrunner in the role, but GH decided at the last minute that he'd be better utilized in another role on the show in the future. Sources close to JKJ say that he has signed a holding contract with GH for the next 5 months. A GH rep said to us that fans will choose the role that JKJ will play on GH. Lucas' boyfriend has also been recast. Actor Matt Cohen (Aiden, South of Nowhere) has been cast as Brandon Wexler. Andrew Ridings (ex-JR, AMC) previously portrayed Brandon since early 2006. When we contacted GH regarding the hiring of Cohen, GH headwriter Ryan Chandler said "Matt has what we are looking for and we believe he will have a great future on our show." Both men have been working hard since they were hired. Our source reveals to us that GH has had Cohen and Bruening reshoot scenes done by Ben Hogestyn and Andrew Ridings. Hogestyn and Ridings' last episodes have already aired. In other news, we have learned more information regarding the role being written for Kimberlin Brown. It appears as if her character will have ties to Port Charles in more ways than one. Though we cannot confirm this at this time, rumor has it that Kimberlin's character is part of the restructuring of the Cassadine family. We're expected to receive more information next week. It appears as if Alicia Leigh Willis' time on GH is just about up. The show is refusing to renogiate the actress' contract and is content with having her on recurring status. It is highly rumored that her character will not be recast.

Secrets & Lies: Episode 9 Tuesday, October 24, 2006 Written by: Venus Stone-Cutter & Ryan Chandler Produced by: Ryan Chandler Opening Video Liz and Nik face off at Wyndemere after his accusation that Liz is having an affair with Jason. Liz still can’t believe that Nik has called her over to ask her this. Liz: Are you serious? Do you hear what you’re asking me? Nik: Liz, don’t get upset. I just need to know what is actually going on between you and Jason. Liz: Absolutely nothing is going on between Jason and me. And even if there was, who the hell are to question me about it? Nik: I was just – Liz: When you were running around with Courtney behind Emily’s back did I dare ask you if you were cheating on her? No. Because I had more faith in you than that Nikolas. We’re friends. Jason has been through a lot; we’ve all been through a lot. You standing there accusing me of adultery is just crazy. Nik: Jason’s been through a lot? Are you serious? Jason’s life is dangerous, Liz. You of all people should know the life that Jason chose for himself. He chose a life of danger. The only person, who needs you more than Jason, is your husband. Liz: But it wasn’t Jason’s “danger” that got Sam killed was it? It was your psychotic grandmother. I’m not going to stand here listening to you tell me who I need to help and care for. I already got a guilt trip in for form of grandmother. I’m not going to feel guilty for being there for my friend! Liz turns to walk away but Nikolas grabs her arm. “Liz, don’t walk away. We seriously need to talk about this. I care about you but I also care about my brother,” says Nikolas as Liz pulls her arm away. She grabs her purse and walks through the door. Nikolas yells, “Your pushing him away is making things worse for him. He needs you by his side, Liz! He needs you!” At ELQ, Tracy goes to Edward’s office. She goes to open the door but stops when she overhears Edward talking. “No one can know,” he says. “My taking over was to prove that I am still the man that I used to be. But let me be clear, I have no intention of leaving the company. I intend to oversee the board was Chairman, and will run the company with my newly selected CEO, provided I have enough votes from the board.” “Who have you decided on?” the voice asks. “Tracy, I haven’t decided yet. I’m just mulling things over for right now. I don’t intend on making an announcement until everything is in place. I am considering selecting my granddaughter,” Edward responds. “Emily? Isn’t she a doctor? She has no business experience. She would not be a great choice to…” “No, no, no. Emily has no interest in getting involved with ELQ. Besides, she’s decided to take down roots in Hawaii. We keep in contact though. The person I had in mind was Skye.” “Hmmm….,” the voice says. “That doesn’t seem like a bad idea. Tracy would have a problem with that though.” “What Tracy doesn’t know won’t hurt her,” Edward devilishly replies. “Tracy will never run ELQ again. It’s because of her and Ned that we have Luke running around as the VP of Foreign Affairs.” “I’ve heard he has a lot of those.” “Shut up! I don’t have time to continue this discussion. Now, what I need you to do is…” Edward’s voice trails off. Tracy smirks, proud that she has accidentally come into this powerful knowledge. Tracy then steps into the elevator. As she’s going back up to her office she decides that she will need to set up a major plan to obtain not only more power in ELQ, but also remove the company of some unnecessary people; one of them being Skye. Back at General Hospital, Jamie looks at the photos she took of Patrick on her cell phone. Jamie slips into the empty office, closing the door behind her. Taking a memo pad from the desk, she jots down a note for Patrick to meet “Robin” immediately in the locker room. Going back to the door, she peeks out to see that Patrick is no where in sight. She heads towards the main station, quickly placing the note on top of some files that are there. Jamie then makes her way to the locker room. Alexis, who is at work, is looking over some case files when her telephone rings. Picking it up, she is told that someone has requested to see her and that it is very important that they do it now. Alexis is not in the mood for games and asks who the person is. Suddenly her door bursts open. Alexis is face to face with Helena. Helena closes the door behind her and smiles at Alexis, pleased that she has stunned her. “What are you doing here?” Alexis asks. “You have some nerve coming to my job, demanding my time, showing your face.” Helena just smiles. “Oh, Alexis dear, don’t be so nasty. I simply wanted to see how you were doing.” “I don’t believe that for a second. You don’t care about anyone but yourself. You don’t care about how I’m doing. You put me through hell. You put…you put Sam through hell, and because of you, Sam is ……” Alexis’ sentence trails off. “Gone?” says Helena, finishing her sentence. “I wouldn’t place all the blame on my shoulders, dear. You too are to blame for the poor demise of Samantha. My granddaughter had much potential but alas, it was ruined because you didn’t want her.” “Get out!” screams Alexis. “Oh, you want to blame others for her death, but you fail to see that you are to blame. You and no one else. But don’t worry. Once Kristina and Molly become old enough, I’ll explain to them what a whore you were and how you murdered their big sister. Then, I shall take them under my wing and make sure you never do any harm to them.” Helena continues to taunt Alexis. “I’m going to have you arrested for murder you sick bitch.” Alexis picks up the phone to bring police into her office. “Poor, pathetic Alexis,” Helena says as she prepares to make a fast exit. “I’ll leave you to wallow in your guilt, but be assured that I will be back.” Once Helena leaves Alexis’ office, she uses her cell phone to call the hospital. She is pleased to hear that the unknown patient is doing well. Helena arranges another meeting time. Patrick is on his way to the admission desk to pick up some charts. Once there, he notices the note for him to meet Robin in her locker room. Smirking to himself, he heads that way. When he opens the door, steam surrounds his body. He notices a woman, Robin, in the shower. Patrick locks the locker room door, and then strips and puts on a robe. He slowly makes his way to the shower. He opens his robe, pulls open the shower door and says “I’m here...” The woman in the shower screams! On the next General Hospital – Jamie slaps Patrick for walking in on her naked. Luke plans a surprise for Tracy. Carly puts her plans on hold to deal with her mother. Maxie taunts Dillon for staring at Lucas.

Secrets & Lies: Episode 8 Monday, October 23, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler At General Hospital, Alan is on the phone in his office conducting a very important phone call: Alan: You know you’re a hard person to get in contact with right? Ha ha….. Yeah. I’m sure you’ve gotten all of my messages….Oh that’s not good….I’m sorry to hear that…. You know sometimes things like that happen….Well, I’ve been keeping some tabs on you and noticed that your last job ended a little over a year ago. How would you like to return to GH? We are always in need of great doctors like you…. Really? That’s great…. What’s in it for me? Well, I get to show everyone that there was a reason behind renewing my contact as Chief of Staff. And of course you’ll have to help me with something but I’ll explain it to you later. I’ll fax over the information to you and we can get everything squared away. Alright, I’ll talk to you later. I look forward to seeing you and thank you. Alan hangs up very pleased with himself. He says to himself that things may be looking up after all. At the nurses’ station, Liz asks if Bobbie has come in yet. She is told that Bobbie is late for her shift so she may have to do extra rounds. Liz sees Audrey get onto the elevator and runs after her. Audrey: Good morning Elizabeth. *Liz pushes the stop button on the elevator.* Audrey: What are you doing? Liz: Jason told me what you did. What gives you the right to interfere in my life? I am not a child grandmother; I don’t need you going around trying to fix things for me. Audrey: Elizabeth, please understand why I did what I did. I am not trying to run your life nor am I trying to fix things for you. But I believe you will end up doing more damage in the long run if you continue to turn to Jason instead if your husband. Lucky needs you right now Elizabeth. The man witnessed a woman die in front his eyes and he couldn’t do a thing about it. He feels guilty that he couldn’t save Samantha and instead of you helping him cope with his guilt, you push him away and help Jason through his grief. Liz: I know Lucky is dealing with some things right now but I am as well. Jason is my friend and he’s going through a rough time right now. Audrey: Lucky is your husband. Liz: Lucky and I haven’t been the same since Sam died. *Liz gets a call from Nikolas while she’s with Audrey.* Liz: I have to go. I love you. Audrey: I love you too…. *Elizabeth pushes the button on the elevator to restart it. Audrey sighs as Liz leaves.* At the PCPD, Mac has his office put Bobbie in the holding room. Felicia tries to get Mac to not press charges against Bobbie and he promises he won’t. However, he says that someone needs to come pick her up. Mac decides to call Lucas. When he answers, Lucas is surprised to hear from Mac. Mac informs Lucas that he had to arrest Bobbie for public intoxication, but won’t press charges provided someone can come pick her up. Lucas tells Mac he’ll take care of it. Brandon, who’s in bed with Lucas when he gets the call asks what’s wrong. Lucas tells him what happened. Lucas tosses the phone and turns back on his side as if he’s going back to sleep. Brandon questions Lucas about going down to pick up Bobbie but Lucas says he’s not going down. Brandon then goes downstairs to “get something to drink” when really he calls Carly and tells her about her mother. At Wyndemere, Liz walks into the den. Nikolas tells her it’s ok, Lucky isn’t here. Liz asks why she was called over and Nikolas tries to beat around the bush but Liz becomes irritated and asks for the condensed version. What she asks for is what she gets. Nik bluntly asks Liz if she is having an affair with Jason. On the next General Hospital – Tracy learns that Edward is considering taking a less active role once again with ELQ by becoming the chairman and selecting a new CEO. Tracy decides to use this to her advantage to kick Skye out of ELQ. Liz becomes angry when Nikolas accuses her of cheating on Lucky. Helena has a confrontation with Alexis.

great episode Mike

Lol, your friend may be a genious Lee I didn't think about him Amello. I liked him on DAYS. I'm going to consider casting him as Lucas or Brandon.

Lol Rhiannon. I take you're happy with that news, lol.

Thanks for the feedback. I really do appreciate it. If you see a storyline that isn't working, just let me know and I'll tweak it or trash it.

Lol, you aren't the only one (I am on the fence)

Major Casting News: 10/21/06 by Some One We have received some interesting information. According to our sources at GH, we have learned that multiple roles are going to be recast over the next couple of months. We've known this for the past three weeks, but have been unable to reveal it. We are now able to share some of that with you. The roles of Lucas Jones and Brandon Wexler (Lucas' boyfriend) are going to be recast. Some names floating around include Jean-Paul Laviosier (Rex, OLTL), Justin Bruening (Jamie, AMC) and Ryan Carnes (ex-Lucas, GH). Rumor has it that the show may turn to the fans to select their new Lucas and Brandon. Nothing is set in stone at this time. Also rumored? Three actors could be on their way out. Among those rumored is Maurice Bernard. Though Bernard recently gave an interview saying he doesn't mind his lack of screentime, sources close to the set say he's very irritated and is afraid Sonny may meet his maker soon. We can confirm that the role of Sarah Webber, last played by Sarah Laine in 2002, will now be played by actress Erin Hershey Presley! Sarah was last seen in 2002, but never had an official exit off-screen. It was later mentioned that Sarah returned to Europe to live with her father and step-mother. There is no word yet when Erin will first air, but she is rumored to either set her eyes on Lucky, Patrick or Jason. We can also confirm that Rachel Ames' (Audrey) recent increase in screentime is no fluke. The actress has recently been upgraded to contract status once again and will be seen off and on (for now) until the show can fit her heavily into a storyarc. We are hearing that GH is currently creating a role specifially for Kimberlin Brown (ex-Sheila, Y&R, B&. With many casting changes to come, who'll be leaving? GH has an extradordinarly large cast and with the recent decision to tell storyarcs, many are finding themselves with a lot of free time. The Soap Entertainment News Network (SENN) will keep you updated as more information is provided to us.

Secrets & Lies: Episode 7 ICU: Luke & Skye Friday, October 20, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler Skye walk into the den at the Quartermaine Mansion and sees Luke staring at a bottle of liquor. Skye automatically assumes that Luke has been drinking. “Starting early I see…” "Actually Blaze, I haven’t had a single swallow,” Luke shoots back. “My mistake” says Skye. “Yeah, your mistake…..so how was your date with our favorite mobster?” “It was amazing. We had such a wonderful time. We ate, we danced, and that was it,” Skye smiles as she proceeds to sit down. “Anything you’d care to share with me?” he asks. “No, not really,” she replies. Luke lays his arm on a pillow, “I really don’t know what you see in that guy. I mean, he’s nothing like me.” “He’s not you…exactly. Lorenzo loves me and wants to be with me,” says Skye as she looks at Luke. “I do love you Blaze. You know that.” Skye rolls her eyes. “Yes Luke, I know. But you aren’t in love with me. I won’t ever come first with you. I’ll always be placed behind your next adventure or quest or whatever it is that forces you to leave town so often. I need someone will put me first, who will be around for me when I need him. I need stability Luke, and you can’t give me that.” “I can give you a lot of things” says Luke as he edges towards Skye. “But you can’t give me stability,” she says as she gets up. “And besides, you’re married to Tracy. I asked you multiple times to choose me over her and you couldn’t. You like the sick little games that you and she play. You get off on it. You love Tracy more than you think Luke.” “I love you,” Luke says as he stands up. “No you don’t. You love the idea of me. I’ll never be enough for you. I don’t get into mess that’ll send you half way around the world to save me. I don’t scheme to get you pay attention to me. My life is quite boring based on your standards Luke.” Luke walks closer to Skye as she puts more distance between them. “Come on Blaze. Look at us. We’re good together. We have fun. And you know I’ll always be there for you when you need.” Skye tells Luke, “But I need more. What’s fun? I can’t live my life just having “fun”. You’re not good for me. I don’t want to be tempted to drink every time you take off. I don’t want to have to deal with being lonely when you leave because things are getting too intense here. I don’t want to use the energy that I have to fight with you, to beg for you to come home.” “So you think Lorenzo will provide you with that stability?” Luke says with a condescending tone. “He risks the chance of getting shot every time he leaves his house! He could be sent to jail! You think that guy will give you stability? If you do you’re more blinded by his appeal that you should.” Skye walks over near the door leading and looks out the window. “You’re right. Lorenzo does lead a dangerous life. But he’s here. And he leads his dangerous life here…not in Europe. Not in the Markham Islands, not in Greece, or Australia or anywhere else that you go to when you’re not here. Lorenzo has promised to be me first and not put the lives of myself or anyone else associated with me in danger.” Skye becomes more agitated as Luke continues to try and win a futile battle. “And quite frankly I don’t feel like discussing this with you anymore.” “You’re afraid. You’re afraid to be with me. I can’t change who I am Skye. I’m not the family kind of guy. That was Laura’s project. Not mine. I’m not ‘Mr. Romantic’”. Luke’s emotions begin to get the best of him. He tries to contain it but he becomes more and more angry the more he tries to hold it in. “I’m not the guy who’ll shower you with roses and candy and all that jazz. I am who I am. You should accept me for who I am and not who you want me to be. I can’t be who you want me to be. My love should be enough for you. My love should be enough for you.” Skye goes to leave but Luke grabs her arm and kisses her. “Look into my eyes and tell me that you felt something. Can you really look me in the face and tell me that my kiss meant nothing to you? Can you tell me what we had meant nothing?” says Luke. Skye pauses, looks at Luke and grabs his face. “What we had….is in the past. It may have meant something to me Luke. In another time, but we are done. I cannot allow myself to fall for you again. I will not set myself up to be disappointed once more when you choose other things over me. Go to your wife Luke. Tell her how much you love her. I know the only reason why you don’t show Tracy how you feel is because you think that there is some hope for us but there isn’t. I love Lorenzo. I want to be with Lorenzo.” Skye then kisses Luke on the cheek and wishes him well. Luke walks away in deep thought, obviously affected by what Skye said to him. He picks up the bottle of liquor on the table and takes a swig. Luke begins to reminisce about the good times they had. A tear slowly falls down his cheek as he takes a deep breath. Luke leaves shortly after. Skye watches Luke leave from her the window in her room and takes out a picture of them. She also begins to reminisce about their times together, especially the times when she was cast aside. “I know I’ve made the right decision. Someday you will understand Luke. You’ll understand.” Skye then holds the photo of her and Luke close to her heart and cries as GH fades to black. On the next General Hospital: Secrets & Lies – Liz voices her displeasure with Audrey when she sees her at the hospital. Mac calls Lucas after Bobbie is arrested Lainey and Lorenzo discuss Skye during a session Alan makes arrangements for a friend to return to town.

Maurice Speaks Out!! Written by Brittany Logan Fans of ABC’s “General Hospital” will be missing some of their favorite characters this fall. One of them is the sexy mobster himself, Sonny Corinthos. In an interview conducted a few days ago, we learned that the writing team has not included Maurice’s character Sonny in a major role during the first story arc “Secrets and Lies”. We called Maurice two days ago to get his opinion on his recent backburnering. Brittany Logan: Hi Maurice how are you? Maurice Bernard: I’m doing well. BL: You know why we’re calling. We recently found out that you will not be included in the storylines this fall during “Secrets and Lies”. How do you feel about that? MB: Well obviously I’m a little disappointed. I would have loved to have been a major part of this new venture, but I understand that it’s hard for the writers to include everyone. It’s not only me who won’t be a major part of the storylines. There’s also Ingo Rademacher, Tony Geary (who’ll be on vacation for a few weeks during the arc), M’Fundo Morrison, John J. York, Alicia Willis, Natalia Livingston and Kent King who won’t be a major part of the arcs. I’m just one of many. BL: But that has to affect you in some way right? You’ve been on the front-burner for almost 7 years now. MB: As I said before, I understand. There are people who have rarely had any airtime over the past few years getting major stories. I feel great. The burden of carrying a show on the frontburner is huge. Let me make one thing clear, Sonny WILL be seen this fall, just not in a leading capacity. I will be supporting other stories. As a matter of fact I think Sonny and the kids will be taking a vacation for a while this fall. BL: That will give you time to spend with your family. MB: Correct. BL: Do you know whether you will be included in a major way during the second arc? MB: Honestly I don’t know. We’ve been told that the order of the story arcs is being changed so I may or may not have one. I do know that Laura Wright [Carly] and I will be a part of a mini-arc that is supposed to air in January or February (I believe). Our schedule is not like Port Charles where they taped 6 months worth of shows. We are still on the same taping schedule so changes can be made at any time. BL: So there are no hard feelings? MB: Not at all. To be quite honest, I think the fans will be happy that Sonny will be off-screen for a while. They need a break. (Laughing) I know I do. Coming up Sunday, Jane Elliot & Robin Christopher sit down to tell us about their upcoming storylines and their recent upgrade to leading status.

Secrets & Lies: Episode 6 Thursday, October 19, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler As Jason is coming out of the shower someone knocks on his door. Walking downstairs shirtless, Jason opens the door and is surprised to see Audrey Hardy there. Jason grabs a shirt from his closet and asks if he can get Audrey anything. She turns him down. Jason: So…what can I do for you Mrs. Hardy? Audrey: You can help me by backing off Elizabeth and allow her and Lucky to fix their marital problems. In New Jersey, Ric brings supplies to someone off camera. He updates this person on his family and the status of his career. Ric says that eventually he’ll have to let Alexis in on why he keeps traveling to New Jersey. Mac & Felicia are having breakfast at Kelly’s when Bobbie walks in. The smell of alcohol radiates from her body. Bobbie asks Mike to get her a bagel when Felicia asks her how she is. Bobbie says that her life is just great. Tony’s moved away, her family rarely speaks to her, and oh yeah, her son likes guys. She’s just great. Felicia tries to give Bobbie some advice but due to her inebriated state, Bobbie doesn’t react as well as Felicia had hoped. Bobbie yells at Felicia for giving her unwanted advice. When Mike tries to calm her down, Bobbie throws the plate at Mike. Mac walks over to diffuse the situation. Smelling the alcohol, Mac has no choice but to arrest Bobbie. Back at Jason’s, Audrey asks Jason to give Elizabeth some space. She understands that he is going through a rough time right now, but Elizabeth is not someone who he should be confiding his feelings in. She says it’s bad enough that Liz has hero worship for Jason, but now he’s using her as an emotional crutch. She respectfully asks him to stop. Jason gives her a blank stare as he shows her out of his place. A moment later his phone rings. It’s Elizabeth. Jason: Liz, I’m glad you called. You are never going to believe what you’re grandmother did. At the Quartermaine Mansion, Skye takes the ring Alcazar gave her out of her pocket. She stares at it and flashes back to last night with Lorenzo. Skye then puts the ring back in her pocket and prepares to go into the den, unaware that Luke is inside…. Coming up next…a special ICU episode featuring Luke and Skye.

Hey juniorz! I'm looking forward to reading this.

Secrets & Lies: Episode 5 ICU: Skye & Lorenzo Wednesday, October 18, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler Skye puts on a happy face when she steps off the elevator. She is amazed by how well the room looks. Candles provide the light for the dimly lit dining area. Skye looks around and sees rose petals forming a path that is to take her onto the terrace where Lorenzo is there to meet her. Being a gentleman, Lorenzo walks Skye to their table, pulls out her chair and pushes her in. They sit for 5 minutes, doing nothing but stare into each other’s eyes. Finally, Lorenzo pours Skye a glass of the MetroCourt’s finest non-alcoholic wine and begins to flirt with Skye. As Skye sips her drink, Lorenzo’s mind begins to race. Should he ask her now? How will she react? Should he wait until after dinner? Should he do it as he takes her home? What should he do? His thoughts are interrupted when their dinner arrives. Luke on the other hand begins to suspect what Lorenzo is up to and plans to disrupt their dinner. While watching Skye and Alcazar, Luke sees something in Skye that he hasn’t seen before. Luke sees that she’s generally happy but a big part of him doesn’t want her to be happy with Alcazar. Back out on the terrace, Lorenzo and Skye slow dance. As he places his hands on her hips, she wraps her arms around his neck. Skye: I’ve never met anyone quite like you Lorenzo. You make me feel wanted and I love you for that. You love me despite my flaws and my insecurities and you were there for me when I almost turned to the bottle. As much as you’ve been there for me Lorenzo, where are we headed from here? I mean, do you think we could have a future together. Lorenzo: I know we will have a future together. Skye, my love for you is unwavering. I love you for who you are, not who people want you to be. I love you for allowing me to be a part of your life and to have a piece of your heart. Luke, now closer to the terrace knows what is about to come next. He is tempted to go interrupt, but changes his mind at the last minute. Skye: Lorenzo…. Lorenzo: Skye….I want you in my life, I need you in my life. You are the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with. I want you to know exactly how much I want you in my life. Skye Chandler-Quartermaine… (Gets down on one knee) Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife? Skye: I….I…. Lorenzo: Listen. I don’t want you to answer you now. I don’t want to pressure you into saying yes. As a matter of fact, I don’t want you to say yes until you are 100% certain that you want to spend the rest of your life with me. I am giving this to you as a promise of my love. When you’re ready Skye, I want you to put this ring on your finger. Lorenzo gets up, gives Skye a romantic kiss and asks for his driver to please take her home. Before she leaves, Skye makes a promise to Lorenzo that she will. Luke believes that Skye didn’t say yes because she is really in love with him. However he knows that she didn’t say no, so there’s a good chance that she loves Lorenzo too.

Out in the garden, Tracy sits alone, thinking of everything that has gone wrong with her life. She has two, mostly happy children, a great company, a family and a marriage. So why is she so unhappy?

Secrets & Lies: Episode 1 Saturday, October 14, 2006 Written by: Ryan Chandler It’s been three months since Sam’s death and things aren’t any easier between Jason and Alexis. Jason’s anger towards Alexis for blaming him for Sam’s death is just a cover for him blaming himself. Why did he choose Liz over Sam? Why did he not save Sam first? These are the questions he asks himself as he tries to move on with his life. Elizabeth Spencer can’t get Jason Morgan out of her head. Ever since he saved her 3 months ago, she’s been unable to put aside her feelings for him. Jason’s saved her on more than one occasion, but what makes this time so special? That is something she can’t figure out. As the days go by, Elizabeth and her husband grow further and further apart and Liz’s buried feelings for Jason resurface… Lucky Spencer is a very unlucky man. The bullet that went through his shoulder 3 months ago might as well have gone through his heart. His injury caused him to miss weeks of work and he didn’t have anyone to nurse him back to health. Where was his wife? She was too busy dealing with her own problems and obsessing over Jason Morgan. Sam’s death has hit him pretty hard too. He was in a position to save her but was unable to because of Helena Cassadine. The sound of Sam’s voice screaming for Lucky to help her haunts him even now. The look on her face as she saw the man she loved put her second will forever be emblazoned in his mind. As Alexis is getting ready for work, she is startled when she hears a loud boom. She rushes out of the bathroom to learn that Kristina knocked something over. Alexis breaks down into tears, causing Kristina to cry as well. Ric reassures Kristina that she didn’t make her mother cry. Alexis refuses to allow Ric to console her and she continues to get ready for work. Ric knows that he can only help Alexis if she allows him to. When she leaves the room, Ric goes over to his desk and receives an e-mail from someone unknown.

Have a nice liquid breakfast from her pocketbook. Bobbie looks at herself in the mirror and tries to smile. She has a flashback of Lucas as a child, then another of Lucas with Brandon. The smile quickly fades as she takes another drink. Standing outside Jason’s penthouse, Liz prepares to knock on his door. Her cell rings. It’s Lucky. He asks where she is and she tells him she’s on her way to work. Lucky tells her he loves her but Liz hangs up too soon. Liz knocks on Jason’s door. When he opens it, she notices he’s been crying and gives him a hug. Liz promises Jason that she will always be there for him if he needs her.
