    Secrets & Lies: Episode 74-77

    Opening Video

    - In Europe…..two people board a plane making it’s way to Port Charles. Though they don’t see each other, both have something in common and have connections to Port Charles. Both haven’t seen people in Port Charles for a while now, but they intend on making up for time lost.

    - At Club Evolution…..

    Dillon: (sighs) Oh, man....what the hell is going on with me?

    Maxie: (walks up behind him): I think I can answer that.

    Dillon: (sarcastically) Great...just what I need.

    Maxie: Don't get me wrong. I thought that hug you two shared at Kelly’s was kinda cute. Imagine my surprise when yet again, I find the two of you hugging. I guess anything to be in the big strong arms of Lucas huh? Could be the start of a newfound relationship in Port Charles?

    Dillon: Maxie, would you give it a rest? There is nothing wrong with me sharing a nice moment with a close friend.

    Maxie: If that's true, then why did you burst out the club in a huff? Sorry to burst you bubble, Dillon, but it's plain as day that you want Lucas, and it is tearing you up inside that you cannot have him.

    Dillon: This isn't working, Maxie.

    Maxie: And it would definitely be a curse to the Quartermaine name. I mean, Edward would disown you from the family, Tracy...well Tracy would have you receive therapy...it's no wonder you are this way. Look at the family you came from.

    Dillon is on the verge on berating Maxie after her latest statement. But then suddenly backs off and not give into the temptation. That makes Maxie gloat even more that since he didn't speak up, he knows what she is saying is the truth. Dillon does nothing but shakes his head and walks away, leaving Maxie looking on with nothing but a smirk on her face.

    - Carly & Nikolas are shown talking at Wyndemere. Carly thanks Nikolas for taking her out and showing her a good time.

    He smiles at Carly before grabbing her hand. “Carly, there’s no need to thank me. I’ve really come to appreciate and value your friendship,” he starts. “You helped me realize that I can bounce back from a failed relationship. When Courtney left me last year……it was the hardest thing for me. But you were there for me. You didn’t ask me anything in return. You were just there for me and I thank you for that.”

    A tear begins to fall down Carly’s cheek. “We’re friends Nikolas. That is what friends are for. I know that you caught hell for letting me into your life, but to be quite honest with you, you helped me too.”

    “How so?” the hunky prince asks.

    “By helping me not go back to Sonny. I could have used his breakup with Emily to try and get back with him but I didn’t want to. I like you. I like you a lot. There’s something about you that makes my heart skip a beat.” She tosses her hair back and tries to hold back tears. “For some reason, you make me want to be a better person. We’ve danced around our feelings for months now, but tonight is the first time that we’re being open with each other.”

    “You make me happy Carly Corinthos.”

    “You make me hot Nikolas Cassadine.”

    He learns his face against hers, their lips barely touching. “So what do you want to do?” he asks. “I want to feel your body next to mine.”

    “And I want you…I want you,” she pauses and moans as he kisses her neck. “We can’t if we’re not ready,” she whispers softly. “We’ve…..we’ve gotta be ready.”

    Nikolas kisses her neck and face more. “I’m ready. I’ve been ready for a long time now. Are you ready?”

    “I’m ready,” she moans.”

    Elsewhere……

    - Jason walks Liz to the Audrey’s front door. The snow storm heading towards Port Charles gets off to a slow start. As the snow falls to the ground, it seems to illuminate the houses in the neighborhood. Liz thanks Jason for a wonderful night and minus the Carly incident, she had a great time. Jason asks if Liz would like to spend Christmas Eve with him, but she unfortunately has to turn him down. She, Audrey and Cameron will be doing some last minute preparations for their holiday celebration. Jason is disappointed, but wishes her a great day anyone.

    Jason and Liz both go in for a kiss, but Liz goes for his cheek while Jason goes for her mouth. As soon as he kisses her she feels her heart melt. She wants him badly, but no…she mustn’t. She is married and wants to be with Lucky. It’s her fault that they aren’t together now, but she won’t wreck her marriage any further. She backs away from Jason and he apologizes. It takes all of her willpower to walk into her grandmother’s without inviting him in. She waves goodnight. As Jason is walking back to his car, Liz watches him through the window. Jason gets in his car and watches the snow fall for a bit. He smiles and realizes this is the first time since Sam’s death that he’s been genuinely happy.



    - Back at Wyndemere, Nikolas lights the candles in the room and the fireplace. He pushes the button to the stereo. Soon after, “Can’t Get Enough” by Tamia begins to play.

    When I think about You
    I Think About Giving Myself To You
    Cause You Know I Want You Baby and
    I Would Do Anything
    I Know You Thinking
    The Same Thing Baby
    So Come Get It (come and get it baby)
    I'm So Excited
    I Can't Hide My Feelings Get It
    I Want Stop To We Start Over and Finish
    Tonight It's All About My Baby
    I'm Fiending For You
    You Get Me High
    I Can't Stop You Feel Me Right

    [Nikolas walks over to Carly and slowly unzips her dress from the back. He kisses her neck and rubs his hands down her arms and back. The two of them kiss passionately and bump into objects in the living room. The two of them make their way into the hallway and fall on the floor.]

    Close The Door
    Bed or Floor?
    I Just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You
    What I Got In Store
    It's All Of Yours
    I just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You

    [Carly takes off Nikolas’ shirt. He gets on top of her and kisses her more. In one motion her bra comes off. Nikolas’ rock hard pecks press against her luscious mounds. The two of them roll around until Carly ends up on top. She slowly unbuttons his pans and caresses his muscular legs. She slowly runs her hands up and down his legs before making her way to his boxers. Carly slowly takes all of Nikolas inside her, enjoying every inch of his well endowed organ.]

    When I Think About Us
    I think About The Way We Make Love
    The Way That You Make Me Sweat
    Make Me Want A Cigarette and
    I Ain't no Smoking Chick
    But You Got Me Wanting It
    So Don't Stop

    [The camera fades into another scene with Nikolas massaging hot body oil on Carly’s abdomen and legs. He blows gently on her stomach and his face further and further down her body.]

    You Making Me Feel Really Feel It Right There
    Wait Don't Make Me Turn Yet
    Keep It Right It There
    My Adrenaline is Pumping
    My Stomach Muscles Getting Tight

    [The camera fades into another scene between Carly & Nikolas. Carly’s eyes roll into the back of her head. Nikolas pours hot wax across over abdomen and blows once more. Nikolas is out of camera range as she moans in ecstasy. She moans for him not to stop. Her hands clench the blankets and her ab muscles contract and detract. More and more she pleads. Finally Nikolas is shown rubbing her feet and thighs.]

    Skin So Wet My Fingers Slide
    I’m Going To Take You To A Place
    You Ain’t Never Been
    Again Again and Again
    I Want You to Feel It Baby
    I'm About To Handle My Business Baby
    Make Sure You Handle Me Too

    [Nikolas pulls Carly further, deeper, harder into him. The two of them completely in sync with each other. Not to fast, not too slow, he works his shaft methodically through her sugar walls.]

    Close The Door
    Bed or Floor
    I Just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You
    What I Got In Store
    Its All Of Yours
    I just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You

    [Continuing with the song, the two of them kiss and work their way into the bedroom. After making love on the floor in various parts of Wyndemere, they finally make their way to the bed where he lays her on her stomach. He takes a mental picture, wanting to remember all of her curves for as long as he can. Carly takes a deep breath as he enters her gateway once again, this time placing her hands on his thighs to control the rate of speed, especially after hitting her head on the headboard.]

    Come Here Baby
    Who's Going To Be First To Scream
    Out Loud
    I Know You Lose After Second Round
    The Consequence Maybe
    That You Have Switch to The Third Round
    And Make Me Scream
    Like When I Put It Down Put On A Little Show
    To Let Your Baby Know
    By Then, I Should Be Screaming
    Uncontrollably
    Hope You ready To Stay Up
    One Time Is Not Enough
    ‘Cause Nothing Too Much, Baby
    Just What I Want Baby

    [The two of them roll around in the sheets. Nikolas gets up, but Carly pulls him into an embrace, kissing him, stroking him, loving him. He goes inside once again, causing her toes to curl up. He places one hand behind her back, lifting her up a little more. She wraps her arms around him, scratching his back as he plows deeper into her body. She lets out an intense scream, calling his name. The camera shots go faster and faster. Their hands meet and lock fingers. They roll once again with Carly coming out on top, her never losing his connection inside her. Another roll lands Nikolas back on top. Carly’s leg quivers and she calls for him to go slower and deeper. Nikolas does as requested. A final thrust leaves both of their bodies quivering and the two out of breath. The camera cuts to the fireplace. The fire continues to rage higher and higher and higher until it goes back to its normal state.]

    Close The Door
    Bed or Floor
    I Just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You
    What I Got In Store
    Its All Of Yours
    I just Want More
    I Can't Get Enough Of You

    [The camera fades to Carly snuggling up to Nikolas in the bed. After an intense night of making love, they fall asleep in each others arms. The snow begins to come down heavily over Port Charles as GH comes to a close.]

    - Robin & Patrick have fun in the snow
    - Nikolas & Carly plan to spend the holiday together
    - Lorenzo & Skye look forward to their future

    Opening Video

    - GH begins in the living room at Wyndemere Castle. Nikolas walks to the window with his cup of coffee. He smiles at the snow falling down as he sips his hot cup of joe. He flashes back to the intense night of passion that he had with Carly. He knows it’ll be a great day. Soon after, Carly walks into the living room wearing one of Nik’s shirts. They kiss good morning and just stare at each other. They both reach for the newspaper and their hands touch. They both laugh and kiss each other again. Nikolas asks Carly’s plans for Christmas and recommends she and the kids spend it at Wyndemere. Carly agrees at first, but turns him down when she remembers they’re spending it at Bobbie’s. Carly then invites him to spend the day with her family. He accepts her invitation and promises it’ll be a Christmas they never forget.

    - At Bobbie’s brownstone, Bobbie is setting up the decorations on the Christmas tree, as Noah walks in the door and greets Bobbie with a kiss.

    Noah: Wow, someone is in the Christmas spirit, aren't ya, love?

    Bobbie: I couldn't be happier.

    Noah: And to what do I owe the pleasure of seeing you very joyous?

    Bobbie: Well, if you must know, Lucas and I...I think we are on the way back to having a relationship again.

    Noah: Oh, that's wonderful! Definitely the Christmas miracle you have hoped for.

    Bobbie: Absolutely. It just gives me a reason to celebrate. I just wish the same could happen for you and Patrick.

    Noah: Well, you never know. Patrick and Robin are coming by for Christmas, after all.

    Bobbie: Really? How were you able to swing that?

    Noah: Well, Robin does want to spend the holidays with her family, but if it hadn't been for her, Patrick wouldn't be here to celebrate. She managed to put our differences aside...at least for the night. Do you think Carly & Robin will be able to be civil with each other?

    Bobbie: She’d better be.

    Noah: I’m glad that we’ll all be spending time together.

    Bobbie: Well, I think that's terrific. Who knows...maybe this could be the start of a wonderful new year.

    - The visitors from Europe finally make their way into Port Charles. They walk past each other, and for a second, they think they may know each other. The woman heads off to check into a hotel, while the man does his best to get out of sight right away.

    - Lorenzo thought that by taking Skye out to lunch, she would be able to take her mind off the fact that Tracy ousted her from ELQ; unfortunately, Skye's mood was somewhat sullen.

    "Skye, I know that you are hurt by being burned by Tracy, but honey, forget about her. I brought you out tonight to not only spend a romantic night with you, but also talk to you about a few things I had in mind for the two of us."

    Smiling shyly, Skye took a sip of her Merlot, knowing that whenever Lorenzo spoke her name, she crumbled and succumbed to all he had planned. "So, tell me, what do you have in mind? I mean, what am I in for?"

    Taking her hand in his, he leaned forward, making sure his words were only for her ears. "Skye, I want to spend Christmas with you. I mean, I want to sweep you off your feet; give you all the works; the tree, the decorations, even the Christmas music."

    Laughing a little, Skye lightly brushed her fingers across Lorenzo's cheek. "You want to spend Christmas with me? Do you think you could handle me bossing you around about how to decorate a big Christmas tree"? she laughed. Whatever Lorenzo had planned, she was bound to like, plus it helped erase all her seething anger towards Tracy.

    Kissing her hand, Lorenzo smirked at her. "I think I can handle anything you dish out for me, just as long as we are spending the holiday together. Skye, I want this Christmas to be special for us", he said, closing his eyes a bit. He felt a twinge of pain come over him.

    Immediately taking notice to the change in his demeanor, Skye could tell something was troubling him. "What are you think about, Lorenzo? Tell me."

    Sighing deeply, he squeezed Skye's hand tightly. "I was thinking about how messed up I made things for Diego. Because of the man I have become, I lost sight of the little things I could have shared with Diego. I just wish I could turn back time and start over again."

    Leaning over to kiss him, Skye eased his mind. "I know, I know.....Maybe this Christmas, you and I can start with a whole clean slate."

    "How so, Skye"? He asked, stroking her hand with his. "I can see the wheels turning in that pretty head of yours."

    Taking in a deep breath, Skye said the words that she knew would make Lorenzo's heart soar. "I think we should ring in the New Year as man and wife. I want to be your wife and the mother of your children."

    Cupping her face in his hands, Lorenzo smiled at her, kissing her lightly on the lips. "Are you sure, Skye? You….you’re ready to get married and adopt?”

    “Yes,” she says smiling at him. “This is my Christmas gift to you.”

    Without saying any words, Lorenzo responds to her answer with a kiss.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Robin & Patrick have a playful snowball fight
    - Audrey & Liz set up for Christmas and get a surprise visitor
    - Monica picks a fight with Alan so she has an excuse to leave
    - Someone is watching the Quartermaines
    - The Scorpios receive an early Christmas surprise!

    Opening Video

    - Monica arrives home at the Quartermaine mansion, and sits in front of the computer...waiting for any sign for Kevin to sign on. She waits patiently, while also looking around to see if anyone is about to come into the study. Kevin finally signs on and IMs Monica, asking how her day was. They begin talking about the packages she’s been receiving. Kevin tells her not to worry about it. They can easily prove the photos were photo shopped.

    - At Club Evolution, Carly excuses herself to go talk to Jason. Nikolas tries to grab Carly before she does something stupid.

    Carly: Wow, Jason…..I’m glad to see you’re out and about. How are you feeling?

    Jason: I’m doing good Carly. I see you’re here with Nikolas. I hope you’re having a good time.

    Carly: We’re having a great time. Anyways, see you around.

    Liz grabs Carly by the shoulder and is angry that she didn’t acknowledge her.

    “So you’re just going to act like I’m not here?” she snaps. “Don’t you dismiss me Carly.”

    Nikolas grabs Carly but she snatches her arm away. “Now you listen here bitch. I didn’t acknowledge you because I had no intention of speaking to you. I’d much rather ignore you than fight with you. But….since you feel that you must speak to me….” Carly stops talking and gears up her sarcastic tone.

    “How are you doing Liz? Are you feeling good? I hope you are. How’s Lucky? Oh yeah, that’s right…you wouldn’t know.”

    “Carly that’s enough,” interrupts Jason. “Just let it go.”

    “I don’t understand you Elizabeth. You claim that you want Lucky back, yet you’re out here with Jason. Those actions don’t seem like those of a woman who wants her husband back,” says Nikolas. “Maybe you should start acting like Lucky is who you want.”

    “Maybe Nikolas, you should mind your own business. Jason and I are friends. I can hang out with my friends anytime I want to. You don’t see me questioning your taste in friends do you.”

    Nikolas smiles at his sister-in-law, making sure he doesn’t say anything to hurt her feelings. “Carly is more than just a friend to me. I happen to like her very much. But unlike you Liz, I’m not married. I’m not working on trying to get the love of my life back.” He turns to Jason and apologizes. “I’m sorry we interrupted your evening.”

    Carly wave’s bye to Jason as Nikolas takes her to the VIP area of the club.

    In another area of the club…..

    - Dillon is sits at the bar, twirling his straw in his drink. He begins to flashback to his fantasy that he had with Lucas. He snaps out of it and is startled when someone puts their hand and on his shoulder. He looks up and notices Lucas and Brandon standing together. Lucas wonders what is wrong with Dillon and apologizes for startling him. Dillon says that it is ok, and he had a lot on his mind. He then tells Lucas he is glad to see him.

    Lucas then reveals to Brandon, that he and Bobbie finally had a revelation about their relationship, and they are both on their way to reconciling their differences. Dillon couldn't be happier for Lucas (not letting Brandon know that he found out from Lucas the day before), and gives him a hug. Dillon melts in Lucas’ arms. After feeling too comfortable, Dillon suddenly backs away, and makes his apologies as he storms out of the building. Dillon starts to breathe heavily.

    Dillon: (sighs) Oh, man....what the hell is going on with me?

    Maxie: (walks up behind him): I think I can answer that.

    - At the lakehouse, Alexis is sitting on her couch looking at a picture of Sam. She begins thinking to herself how she never had the chance to get to know Sam, and wish that things were different where everyone is concerned. Ric walks in and sees Alexis staring at the photo, and walks up to her and hugs/kisses her.

    Ric: You have got to relax.

    Alexis: How can I do that, Ric? I have not been able to get my mind off of things lately. I lost so much time in the last few months...let alone YEARS...to get to know Sam. Now she's gone. Makes you wonder.

    Ric: Wonder what?

    Alexis: What life has in store? You never know when it will be your last, so you should...

    Ric: (finishes Alexis' sentence)...live it to the fullest. It's a good thing you thought that, because what would you say if I told you I was able to set your mind at ease?

    Alexis: Just how exactly are you going to do that? Reversing time is certainly not an option.

    Ric: (laughs) No, but a vacation is definitely in order.

    Alexis: (sternly) No, Ric. I have so much work to do at the office. I mean, there are many cases that I have to follow up on, and the time...the deadlines...they are all...

    Ric: Alexis... (Grabs her so she can stop feeling incredibly rampant)...You have got to stop this. Listen to me. I know what has happened is going to remain with you, but that doesn't mean you have to spend every waking minute drowning your sorrows in work. You need to get away, which is why I have plane tickets to Greece in my briefcase. We are all set to leave tonight.

    Alexis: (uneasy) I don't know....I mean, I cannot get up and leave Kristina....

    Ric: Kristina will be with us. I’m sure Sonny wouldn’t mind her spending some time in the place that is a part of her heritage. And don't try to weasel out of this either. This is coming to you. And just maybe you will finally be able to lose that stress that you have been feeling. So...what do you say?

    Alexis starts to smile and tells him yes, that she will go to Greece with him. The two embrace in a kiss, and Alexis hugs him, hoping that this may be the vacation that she has been longing for to help ease her mourning.

    - Back at the Quartermaine’s, Monica tells Kevin that he was the only thing on her mind the entire time of her shift. And keeping this secret from Alan is tearing her up inside, however it is such a relief to finally find someone who appreciates her for who she is and shows her love and support.

    Kevin replies that he is always there for her whenever she needs it, and Monica wants to set up another date after work. Kevin suggests they meet up on Christmas Eve to spend some time together. Monica agrees and mentions that would make her Christmas Eve a lot happier. that he will get back to her on a day, but to look for it in the coming week ahead. Monica smiles, and sends him an icon of a smiley face, just as Alan enters the room. He starts to ask her what she is doing, but Monica answers him with how it is none of his business what she does and to butt out. She then shuts off the computer and storms out the study to her room.

    - Back at the Club, Lucky walks in after a long day at work with some buddies of his. He spends less than 5 minutes there, before he leaves suddenly. He peeks back in through the window and sees Liz & Jason slow dancing to the song “Anytime” being sung by Brian McKnight on stage. Lucky shakes his head in disgust and leaves the premises.

    Also lurking around is Sam!!! She sneaks her way around the back of the club and also witnesses Jason & Liz dancing slowly. She can’t help but stare at the two of them. While doing so, she flashes back to the man choosing that woman over her. For some reason Sam can’t put two and two together, but is angry inside at what she sees.

    Elsewhere, Nikolas & Carly stare deeply into each others eyes. Carly thanks Nikolas for such a wonderful time and wishes the night doesn’t have to end. Nikolas invites her to come back to Wyndemere with him to enjoy each other’s company. Carly takes him up on it. They grab their belongings and leave the club.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Maxie is happy that she’s getting under Dillon’s skin
    - Jason kisses Liz goodnight
    - Someone’s on their way to Port Charles
    - Carly & Nikolas’ relationship moves to the next level

    Tuesday, December 19, 2006

    Written by: Ryan Chandler & Venus Stone
    Produced by: Ryan Chandler

    Opening Video

    - Dillon comes into Kelly's and notices Lucas sitting at a table by himself. It takes everything he can muster not to let his feelings show on his face. After his heated argument with Maxie, he wanted to make sure that he can keep the feelings he's harboring in check. Carefully approaching the table, he sits down across from Lucas.

    "Hey, how's it going Lucas? I haven't seen you in a couple of days. Is everything alright?"

    Looking up at Dillon, Lucas smiles weakly, unsure of how to explain his conversation with Bobbie. "Yeah, I've had a lot of things going on, how have you been?"

    "Okay, nothing really to brag about. Still dealing with my family, but what else is new, right?” he said, feeling nervous every time he looked into Lucas' eyes. Why am I feeling this way, he asked himself. Why was it so hard for me to just sit across from someone and simply talk to them?

    Taking a sip of his soda, Lucas leaned in closer to Dillon, making sure what he discussed was not overheard. "Can I tell you something? Maybe if I said what I was feeling out in the open, it would help me understand what took place."

    Dillon felt his temperature rise at the idea of Lucas opening confiding in him.

    - Liz is locking the door to her apartment when she feels someone behind her. She turns around expecting the worse but it’s Jason.

    “Jeeze Jason. You scared me.”

    “Sorry. You on your way to work?”

    “Yeah. I asked Bobbie if I could pick up a few extra shifts. Cameron wants this new toy but I can’t get it for him if I don’t pick up this extra work.” Jason begins talking to her, but Elizabeth tunes him out. She stares at his body, dreaming about taking off his clothes right here and now. She snaps back to reality and asks why he came to see her.

    “Well…..I was hoping you’d have time to hang out with an old friend this week.” Jason admires her body. Even in her scrubs she looks beautiful.

    “What did you have in mind Jason?”

    “You remember Luke’s old club right?” says Jason as he walks Elizabeth to her car.

    “Yeah, last time I checked Claude was running it.”

    “Luke sold the club last year to some private investors and they renovated the place. It’s called Evolution now. They’re opening this week and Brian McKnight will be performing.”

    After throwing her purse in the car, she does a double take. “Oh my god, did you say Brian McKnight? I love him! I’d love to go.”

    “Really?” says Jason happily. “Great. I’ll pick you up around 9. It’s a date.”

    Jason gives Elizabeth a hug then walks to his car.

    “Yeah, it’s a date,” sighs Liz thinking of Lucky. She realizes that she can’t wait for Lucky to forgive her forever. Besides, she and Jason are friends. There’s nothing wrong with hanging out with your friends.”

    - Back at Bobbie's house, Bobbie is gathering up her coat to leave to head out to do some errands. Just as she's about to walk to the door, her doorbell rings. Opening the door, she is face-to-face with Noah.

    "What are you doing here?” she asks, stepping aside to let him come in. "I thought you had a shift at the hospital today."

    Removing his coat, Noah, made his way to the couch. "Actually, I ended my shift early. I figured I would pay you a visit to see how you are doing."

    Tossing her coat on the chair, she sat across from him. "Well, I was going to head out for a bit, take care of a few errands, and pick up some things to make one of Lucas' favorite meals."

    Noah could see the smile form on Bobbie's lips, and became curious as to what may have transpired between mother and son. "So, are you going to tell me about it, or do I have to play guessing games with you?"

    Bobbie replayed the intense conversation between her and Lucas in her mind. She truly felt that she made progress in talking with her son about how he truly felt; how she felt. Looking up at Noah, she told him about the conversation between her and her son.

    Once Bobbie had finished talking, Noah sat quietly, processing everything that she shared with him. "Bobbie, I think that it is wonderful that you and Lucas sat down and talked out your feelings, really I do...."

    "I feel a 'but' coming on. Noah, what are you going to say to me that could possibly ruin my happiness that I am feeling?" Bobbie was not at all ready to hear any negative words from her close friend.

    "Bobbie, as I said, I think it's wonderful that the two of you talked, but I want you to be careful. This was one serious conversation; this conversation does not solve all your problems that you still may be harboring about Lucas' sexuality. You need to truly ask yourself if you can truly come to accept your son for who he is or if you are truly trying to pacify what fears you may still have."

    Bobbie sat in silence, wondering if everything she said was from the heart, or if she would wind up doing something to push Lucas away once again.

    - Carly storms into Wyndemere in a bad mood. Nikolas is so caught up in his own drama that he didn’t even notice her come in. Carly gets Nik’s attention after a couple of minutes. He apologizes for not noticing her. Carly begins telling Nikolas about her conversation with Sonny, but again, Nikolas is thinking about what happened at Lucky’s. In a surprising move, Carly drops what is bothering her and genuinely asks what has Nikolas so disturbed. Though he’s tempted to tell her, he does not. Carly has a big mouth and knowing her, she’d run tell Jason. Nikolas instead asks if Carly would like to go to dinner to celebrate her latest success. She accepts his invitation and gives him a hug.

    - Back at Kelly's, Dillon sat listening in awe over what Lucas was sharing with him. To be honest, he couldn't help but be secretly thrilled that Lucas was talking to him about what happened between him and his mother.

    "It surprised me that my mother, my own mother actually listened to how I felt; listened to what I needed to tell her for so long," Lucas said, shaking Dillon from his private thoughts of him.

    Clearing his throat, Dillon smiled back at him. "I think that's great man, I mean, it's a step in the right direction, right?"

    "I guess so, but Dillon, I worry that everything I shared will be for nothing; that the minute something goes wrong between her and I, she will begin to blame me again for who I am."

    Shaking his head, Dillon tried to stop Lucas from dwelling on the bad. "Lucas, just take it one day at a time. Don't expect that one conversation has completely changed everything; you two have a long way to go."

    Standing up, Lucas pushed his chair towards the table. Dillon followed suit. "Man, thanks for listening to me. I really needed to talk to someone; to get everything off my chest, you know what I mean?

    Dillon nodded in agreement. Without thinking about what he was doing, he embraced Lucas in a hug; a hug to which a newly arrived Maxie became witness to.

    Opening Video

    - Nikolas arrives at Carly’s house promptly at 9PM. Lulu answers the door. The two of them begin talking about Christmas plans. When Carly finally makes her way downstairs, Nikolas’ breath is taken away. Standing at the bottom of the stairs is Carly, in a lowcut black dress that slants as it gets closer to her knees. He notices the beautiful platinum locket around her neck. She smiles at him as she moves her hair to her left shoulder. Lulu comments on how gorgeous Carly is, having to elbow Nikolas to get him to speak. Nikolas walks over to her and kisses her hand. As the two of them leave, Carly turns around and whispers “Thank you” to Lulu.

    - While working on some paperwork, Ric is interrupted by a phone call. Though the conversation is one sided, the expression on Ric’s face is what tells it all. Angry that he’s being disturbed, Ric yells at the person the other end. He finally calls the man “dad” and doesn’t want to have anything to do with him. Finally we can hear his father speak.

    “If you think that turning your back on me is going to make you a better person then you’re wrong. You’ll always be second best to your brother. Look at you, Alexis is only with you now because she can’t have Sonny. Your not my son. No, you’re not. You can’t make me proud. Maybe I should find someone who can.”

    Ric gets angry and throws his notepad down. “You know what Trevor, you should spend more time worrying about the other members of our family. You know, your brother and sister. I’ve been making trips to NJ so I can help them out. Where are you?” he asks his father. “Oh that’s right, you’re too good to spend time with your family. You haven’t even visited your granddaughter yet. She’s two dad. Two. You know what, I don’t have time for this. Merry Christmas Dad.”

    - In Nikolas’ car, Carly is surprised when Nikolas doesn’t head towards the restaurant they intended on dining at. Instead, he takes her to the soon to be hotspot in town, Club Evolution. Nikolas tells Carly to be live it up because the press are there. As they step out of the car, the press runs to them.

    Reporter: Nice to see you again Mr. Cassadine. How are you feeling today?

    Nikolas: I’m doing well.

    Reporter: And who are you with tonight?

    Nikolas: This beautiful, intelligent woman is the lovely Carly Corinthos.

    Reporter: Corinthos? Ah yes, the wife of Sonny Corinthos and owner of Deception Enterprises.

    Carly: Ex-wife. But yes, I am the owner of Deception.

    Nikolas: We hear that this is the place to be, so why not have two of Port Charles’ most intriguing people attend it right?

    Carly: See you all inside!

    -Inside the club, Liz is thrilled to be enjoying an night away from all of her troubles. Jason on the other hand is a little uncomfortable being around all of these people, but makes the best of the situation for Liz’s sake. They both seem to enjoy their night until Liz sees Carly enter the club with Nikolas.

    - Monica Quartermaine walked the halls of General Hospital, praying that she would run into Kevin. Her sleep was very restless; how could it not have been, after receiving an ominous note and a puzzle piece with her on it.

    She continued to walk past the admittance desk when she bumped into Alan. The last person she wanted to see today was him; last night at home, he made it a point in snubbing her at dinner. How long would the silent treatment last, she wondered? Did she really even care?

    "Hello, Monica," Alan said, coolly. "I'm really surprised to see you here at the hospital tonight."

    "I had some patient files to work on, I'm not staying long, so don't worry about bumping into me again," she replied. "Have you seen Kevin anywhere?"

    Giving her a questionable look, Alan folded his hands. "Why would you ask me about Kevin? Is there some reason why you want to know if he's here?"

    Trying to keep herself in check or give herself away, Monica spoke in a firm tone. "I was curious if he was here, is all. I had a few of his charts by mistake, and I wanted to give them to him," she lied. "Forget that I asked,"

    "It's funny how you can talk to everyone else in this hospital, but you can’t even treat me with one shred of respect, whether it is here or at home. But to answer your question, no, Monica, I have not seen Kevin today. He's got the day off."

    Keeping her eyes from looking at Alan any further, Monica brushed past him, muttering, "You could have said that to begin with, instead of grilling me, Alan." As she walked away, her mind went back to the puzzle piece she received. Could Alan have sent it to her? Monica quickly dismissed it; thinking that it was not his style to play cat and mouse games with her.

    Going to the elevator, Monica was approached by Georgie. "I wanted to catch you before you got on the elevator," she said, handing a small package to Monica. "It was left at the admittance desk for you."

    Monica suddenly felt a little lump in her throat, as she looked at the package. "Georgie, do you know who gave this to you? Did you see anyone around the admittance desk when this package arrived?"

    Shrugging, Georgie shook her head. "I not too long ago got there. Sorry," Georgie replied, walking away.

    The elevator doors opened, and Monica quickly walked in, letting the doors quickly close behind her. Once alone, she quickly opened the package, curious as to what was sent to her this time.

    Inside was another puzzle piece, this time it showed the face of Kevin. Monica's heart begins start to race, scared as to what this was all about. She removed the note that was written in the same bold handwriting as before; however, this time the words she read sent chills down her spine.

    I was right, Monica, you definitely are a 'piece" of work.....Does Kevin think so too?

    Once the elevator doors opened up, Monica quickly walked to her car that was parked in the parking structure. Getting in, she opened her glove compartment, and took out the first envelope that contained the first puzzle piece. Taking it in her hand, she put them together. It was a perfect fit and revealed what Monica feared: the two pieces revealed Monica and Kevin kissing.

    Grabbing her cell phone from her purse, she quickly dialed Kevin's number. "Please be home. Please," she begged as the phone continued to ring. She winced immediately as the answering machine clicked on. Having no other choice, Monica blurted out, "Kevin, please call me when you get this message. It's important. I think someone knows."

    Back at the residence of Kevin Collins, Kevin is sitting on his couch, very aware that Monica called him; very aware what the call was about. Kevin opens an envelope, and produces two puzzle pieces, very much like the pieces Monica received.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Carly & Liz clash at Club Evolution
    - Dillon finds it harder and harder to resist his attraction to Lucas
    - Ric surprises Alexis with a Christmas surprise
    - Frustrated with Alan, Monica wants to meet up with Kevin for another night of passion

    Produced by: Ryan Chandler

    Opening Video

    - GH opens at Jake’s with Kevin and Mac shooting some pool and knockin’ back some beers. Kevin tries to cheer Mac up by purposely losing some games to him, but Mac sees right through it. Kevin learns that Mac is upset because the Mayor is coming down hard on him. Mac changes the subject, instead wanting to know how his friend has been doing for a while. As they continue to move around the table playing 8-ball, Kevin gives subtle details regarding his relationship with Monica, making sure not to mention her name. He tells Mac how she makes his heart skip a beat, but isn’t sure whether she’s ready for a serious relationship.

    - Carly, who was still in her silk robe, began to grow nervous over her dinner date with Nikolas. Why should she be nervous? She's been around Nikolas before; but then again, not like this. Not on a date, at least. Carly was fretting so much, that she didn't hear the doorbell ring. Collecting herself, she hurried to the door, praying that it wasn't Nikolas coming early.

    "Why are you still in your bathrobe?" a curious Lulu said as she barged into Carly's living room. Plopping on the couch, Lulu stared at Carly. "What's the matter with you?"

    "Lulu, I don't have time to talk shop with you, if that's why you came over. I'm trying to get ready for a date," she said, sighing deeply, looking in the mirror at her make-up.

    Perking up at the word 'date', Lulu immediately sprang to her feet. "What date? Who are you going on a date with, Carly, spill it, woman!"

    Carly felt her cheeks grow warm at the simple thought of Nikolas asking her out on a date. "Nikolas asked me out to dinner tonight, and I'm not even ready yet. I don't have any idea what to wear."

    Raising an eyebrow at Carly, Lulu immediately snatched her hand and led her up the stairs. "Don't worry about a thing, Carly, before you know it, Nikolas will forget all about dinner, and focus on what's for dessert."

    "Lulu!" Carly gasped, as she practically ran up the stairs to keep up with her cousin.

    - The camera pans around to the happenings at the MetroCourt. David is shown talking on his cell phone to an unknown person. While talking, he notices a woman from across the room laying into the maitre d’ for getting her drink wrong. She threatens to have him fired and orders him away. David tells the person on the phone he’ll call back later. David asks the maitre d’ (who’s been reduced to tears) the name of the woman. David grabs a glass of Gamay Beaujolais and walks over to the table.

    “A glass of wine for the beautiful lady?”

    The woman looks at him with disgust. She purses her lips and responds, “What do you want?”

    He smiles at her, intrigued by her icy greeting. “I couldn’t help but notice you from across the room. I figured that I had a 50/50 shot of getting you to talk to me. 50 it would go well, 50 I’d end up in tears like that piss ant.”

    “Well so far it’s going well.”

    “The name’s David. David Hayward.” He pauses waiting for her to respond.

    “Oh I’m sorry, were you waiting for me to give you mine?” she snaps.

    “Yes I was,” he says with a keen interest. “I was hoping you’d be open.”

    “My name is Tracy Quartermaine. I’m the CEO of ELQ Industries.”

    David smirks at Tracy, then reaches out his hand in friendship. “Nice to meet you Tracy. I work over at GH with your husband.”

    “My husband? No, my husband works for me.” Tracy plays his little game a bit more. “You work with my brother Alan and his wife Monica.”

    “I don’t think I met Monica yet.”

    “It’s nothing special, trust me.”

    David and Tracy continue to get to know each other a bit more.

    - At the Quartermaine estate, Monica did her best to stay out of Alan's way. His moody behavior towards her just wasn't what she needed. What she needed was to be with someone that obviously makes her feel alive; someone that make her weak in the knees every time she was near him; someone that was obviously Kevin.

    Making her way downstairs, she made her way into the study and found that Edward was there, looking over some papers. "Hello, Edward."

    "Monica," he said in a dry tone, not at all interested that she came into the room. "As large as this house is, it never ceases to amaze me how loud you and Alan are with your constant, mindless bickering."

    Groaning in disgust, Monica rolled her eyes. "Can we please not talk about Alan?"

    "Fine with me, I don't want to talk about your petty problems to begin with." Standing up, Edward made his way to the door to leave the study. "Before I forget, a delivery person brought a package for you. It's over there on the desk."

    Going to the desk, Monica picked up the small package, eyeing it, curious as to what it could be. "Edward, did the delivery person say who sent it?"

    Grunting in annoyance, Edward shrugged. "How should I know who it's from? The delivery man gave it to me, I signed for it, and he left. You'll have to see for yourself who it's from. Do I look like your personal assistant? Get your own damn mail. Now if you'll excuse me, Monica, I have some pressing matters to attend to."

    Looking over the package again, she slowly opened it. Inside was a puzzle piece that showed her face and a note. Not sure of what was going on; she carefully read the bold writing.

    Monica, you truly are a 'piece' of work.

    Monica wasn't sure if this was some little prank or if the note was to be some form of a threat; all she did know was that it had her greatly concerned.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Carly & Nikolas’ plans change and they end up going somewhere else
    - Jason & Liz enjoy the opening of Club Evolution
    - Monica receives another package
    - Ric gets a disturbing call from his father

    Actress Swap! New Addition To Cast!
    by Leph Turn



    Look for actress Ashley Jones (Bridget, B& to join the cast of GH as "Sarah Webber". A few months ago we broke news that Erin Hershey Presley was to play the role, but due to the actress' pregnancy, the show decided to recast the role with her permission. Originally the writers planned to write her pregnancy into the show once they learned the news, but she didn't want them to make special concessions for her. It is expected that she will join the show in a yet unnamed role next year after her child is born. There are no hard feelings between Erin & GH and the storyline with Sarah Webber will continue on as scheduled.


    Joining the returning Sarah Webber will be her and Liz's brother "Steven Lars Webber". Steven will be played by actor Nolan North, best known for his role on Port Charles as Dr. Chris Ramsey. The role of Steven was last played by Shaun Benson in 2005. We called the show for comment and was surprised when they agreed to do so. "Steven is returning to the show to be with his family. His sisters will be going through a rough time come 2007 and will need to be there to help them. The show is also in need of male characters. There have been many female additions to the cast. There is much story to be told with the Steven character."

    Look for Nolan & Ashley to begin airing in two weeks.

    We have received word that contract negotiations between Ingo Rademacher and GH have been going very well. It is expected the actor will be bumped back up to contract status in mid 2007. Rumor has it that "Jax" could be paired with Ashley Jones' character "Sarah" or Eileen Davidson's character "Victoria".

    Written by: Ryan Chandler & NaVell J. Lee
    Produced by: Ryan Chandler

    Opening Video

    - Lucas and Bobbie sit in her living room in silence. They both try to start conversation but can never finish what it is they’d like to say. Finally, Bobbie decides to put this time to good use.

    “Are you happy Lucas?” she asks. “I mean are you truly happy. Does this Brandon treat you well?”

    He looks up at his mother with much love and responds. “Yes I do. I have never been happier. Brandon makes me feel loved. I connect with him. I feel him.”

    “I just don’t understand this whole change in you Lucas. Did someone make you this way?”

    “You think someone ‘turned’ me gay?” asks Lucas with slight laughter. “If you think that I went to a sleepover as a kid and was brainwashed to like guys? If so then you’re wrong. I was born this way.”

    Bobbie begins to tense up at this point. She’s afraid of what to say to him next, fearing that it’ll come out wrong and she’ll drive him away yet again.

    - When Monica comes home from work, all she wants to do is have a nice long bath and remember her wonderful time with Kevin. She puts her key in the door and finds Alan sitting in the downstairs room. Unlike most days, Alan doesn’t even speak to Monica. She had already prepared herself for him being a pain in the ass and apologizes to her, but this threw her for a loop. Monica reluctantly speaks to Alan, but all she gets as a response is a look. Alan grabs his paper and goes upstairs.

    Angry that he’s ignoring her, she follows him trying to pick an argument. She follows him into his room and asks why he isn’t talking to her. When he doesn’t respond, she fears that he may have overseen her with Kevin, but realizes it couldn’t have happened because she locked the door. Without even looking at her, Alan says that things will be different between them from now on. Until she can learn to show him some respect, he will not speak to her unless it pertains to their job. She tells him to shove it and goes to walk out. He stops her before she leaves, and informs her that until further notice, she is to refer to him as Dr. Quartermaine.

    - At Lucky’s, Nikolas learns that Lucky believes Helena faked her death and altered Sam’s memory. Nikolas doesn’t think that Helena would pay that much attention to Sam, especially since she didn’t know Sam was her step-granddaughter. Nikolas demands to know why Lucky kept this secret. His brother explains that he did it to protect Sam. We don’t know if Helena knows Sam is missing from wherever she was being held. For some reason unknown to them, she came to Lucky. That’s nothing he can do about that. The less people that know she’s alive, the safer she’ll be.

    Nikolas promises to help protect Sam but will need time to get some things into place. Before he goes, he wants to know if Lucky is going to tell Jason that she’s alive. Lucky says that Sam’s memory is very fragile right now and he thinks her seeing Jason will do more harm than good. All the while, Sam has been eavesdropping on their conversation. When Nikolas leaves, Sam smiles and walks back into the bedroom.

    - Carly walks into Sonny’s mansion to inform him about their holiday plans. Sonny however wants to talk only about Nikolas. According to Courtney, things between the two of them are getting a little more personal. First off, Carly’s offended that Courtney is off running her mouth to Sonny and secondly, that Sonny has the audacity to question her about what goes on in her personal life.

    Instead of getting mad and storming out, she tells Sonny that she likes Nikolas. He makes her hot. He makes her want to be a better person. They connect with each other. However they are not together and she doesn’t know if they ever will be. Carly tells Max that she’s ready to leave. Sonny asks why she came over, but she won’t tell him. She says that maybe he should have asked her that instead of prying into her personal life.

    - Back at Bobbie’s, Bobbie and Lucas are still talking.

    “I know you feel that you were born that way, but I think it’s your choice. You always have to be bold and go against the norm. That’s why I think you’re going through this whole gay phase.”

    “Go against the norm? So what, I’m not normal now?” Lucas begins to tear up. “You think that I chose to be this way? It’s not a choice. Do you think I would purposely choose to make my life and the lives of my family difficult? Do you think that I would choose to live a life where I am hated just because I am the way I am? God mother, why do you hate me so much?”

    “I don’t hate you.”

    “Yes you do! There have been so many times when I’ve wanted to come and confide and you but couldn’t because you made it perfectly clear that you hated me in my choices. It’s bad enough that I hate myself, but to have you hate me too is just too much.”

    Lucas really begins to let his emotions out at this point. Bobbie is crying now as well.

    “Don’t you ever say that you hate yourself!” Bobbie cries. “It shouldn’t matter what anyone else things Lucas, you should love yourself. I don’t hate you. I love you. You are my child. I may not agree with your decisions but I could never hate you. I am sorry for making you feel that way.” She grabs her estranged son and hugs him tightly. “You are my life.”

    Lucas lets all of the pain that he’s been feeling since February come out. Bobbie grabs his face and kisses him on the cheek. The camera pans away as the two of them hug and consoling one another.

    - Back at the Quartermaine Mansion, Ned tries to talk to his mother. She’s none too happy that he dragged her into the den before she could blast Skye.

    Ned: How do you do it, Mother?

    Tracy: Do what?

    Ned: Be such a damn ice queen.

    Tracy: Thanks for the compliment.

    Ned: Quit with the snarkiness. How could you have possibly gotten rid of Skye? She’s family!

    Tracy: I am not related to anyone named Skye so I couldn’t have possibly fired a family member.

    Ned: Answer my damn question. You had no right to get rid of her the way you did.

    Tracy: First off, Skye is not even a Quartermaine. She is nothing but common trash that tarnished the family name. She doesn't deserve to be anywhere near this company OR this family. The sooner you'll realize that, the sooner you'll know why I got rid of her like I did.

    Ned: Wow, this power trip of yours has really gone to that thick head of yours. Skye may not be a blood Quartermaine, but she will always remain a part of this family, much to your dismay...and if you think you can alienate her anymore than you already have, you are sadly mistaken.

    Tracy: (gets up from the sofa) I don’t like your tone. You actually think you can stand there and make idle threats?

    Ned: Mother, you had done everything you possible could to snag this job right from under Skye...not to mention me. You claim that you want nothing but the best for me, that you want me to have it all. Is so mother….then stop being such an arrogant, power-hungry bitch who’ll ruin everyone including her son in her never ending quest for power.

    Tracy: Bitch? You’re calling me a bitch?

    Ned: I didn’t mean it that—

    Tracy (pushing Ned): You sit down and up! Let me make this clear to you little boy. I want to make this as clear as crystal. It doesn’t matter how old you are Edward Ashton, you are my child. I will not tolerate you speaking to me in any manner that give me the respect that I deserve. I gave you life and I am entitled to that respect.. Despite the fact you hate what I have done to Skye, you WILL show me some damn respect. I am your mother and though I'll tolerate a lot from you, I will not tolerate that from you.

    What I have done has been in the making for a long time. Skye has constantly baited me and baited me and now that I can make her life hell I am going to do so. If you don’t like that Edward Ashton…my child…..then Skye will not be the only person out of ELQ.

    Ned: Is that a threat, Mother?

    Tracy: Oh, that's not a threat, Ned. That's a promise.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Jason asks Liz out on a date
    - Carly feels Nikolas is hiding something from her
    - Kevin tells Mac about his new love
    - Noah is proud when Bobbie reveals the progress she’s made with Lucas
    - Dillon is thrilled when Lucas confides in him

    Interview w/ the Headwriter

    By Ryan,

    Interview With The Headwriter

    By Val. E. West

    Sweeps is over and what a month it was for General Hospital on SONBC. The show's been holding strong in the ratings and storylines seem to be progressing at a very good pace. Now with some permanent backup, can the writers continue their momentum? SONBC reporter Val E. West recently conducted an interview with one of the head writers at the show.

    VW: Thanks for sitting down with me to do this interview.

    RC: No problem. I thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak.

    VW: You've been writing for GH for a while now. What are some of the mistakes you've made and things you would do over?

    RC: For one, I wouldn't have taken such a long sabbatical over the summer. There were so many things that should have happened this summer that affected some storylines now. For instance, I had this really huge story planned out for Peyton List's character Jamie, but once she started airing, we realized that it was a waste to bring the character on. If we don't like the way a character is working out, we'll can it. We aren't going to force the viewers to watch a character they don't care about. That's unfair to them and us.

    VW: Was that the only mistake?

    RC: No it's not. The original focus of the first arc "Secrets & Lies" changed dramatically since it was originally thought of. Originally Sam, Helena & Alexis were to be the main focus, but we realized that we couldn't have the show revolve around those three. It has been done in the past under previous regimes with certain groups of characters and it turned many fans off to it. Also, we recasted the Diego character with Tyler Hoechlin, but never did anything with the character once he joined the show. Again, that was bad planning on our part but we can't do anything about it now.

    VW: I was told that many backstage are unhappy with the recent cuts and feel their job is next. What do you have to say about that?

    RC: When actors are let go, especially those who are well liked, it will create some sadness and anger, but as I said when those cuts were announced, many of them will be back later down the line. We just didn't have any story for them at this time and it would be unfair to keep them around and reduce them to extras.

    VW: One thing I can say is the show has been a lot more balanced. Did you and your writers specifically go for that angle?

    RC: Yes we did. There is no reason why everyone who is on contract can't be in a storyline. Usually when that happens, it's a big umbrella storyline, but these are separate storylines that cross over into each other on a weekly basis. Even characters who didn't have a storyline in the beginning of the arc are beginning to have one now. Look at Mac for instance, he didn't do much in the beginning, but recently we've been laying the groundwork for his storyline. If you have a big cast it is your responsibility to write for them and make their stories connect. You can't have a bunch of storylines that don't flow and keep characters islanded off somewhere. That's the sign of a bad writer.

    VW: I'm hearing rumors of a cross-over with "As Days Go By". Is there truth to those rumors?

    RC: Would our shows be mentioning each other's characters and companies if we weren't gearing up for some kind of crossover?

    VW: You answered my question with a question.

    RC: I sure did.

    VW: Lol, moving on.

    RC: Yes, let's do so, lol

    VW: What will the title of the next arc be?

    RC: Nothing is concrete at this time, but we're toying with the names "Fated," "Endgame," "Armageddon," but plans could change at any time.

    VW: Have you all begun penning stories for the next arc?

    RC: Yes, we have. I am very confident that my team and I will do a good job.

    VW: You have any previews for us for the next arc?

    RC: I can say that this will be the storyline that gets Sonny & Jason out of the mob. It'll also open up a new chapter in the Anna/David relationship and lay the groundwork for future storyline.

    VW: Can you give us a preview of what's to come this month.

    RC: Sure. Bobbie and Lucas' relationship will be repaired….for the time being. There's an event that will happen that will send Bobbie back a few steps. Dillon will find himself spilling more of his feelings than he expected. Monica & Alan's relationship will switch roles for a while. Carly & Nikolas finally address their feelings for one another. There will be no Christmas spirit for Tracy who takes her frustration with Luke out on everyone else. The storyline involving Sam takes an interesting twist that the audience will be in on but not the other characters (or will they). And the end of the month will foster in the surprise return of two characters and the return of one announced.

    Opening Video

    - GH begins in the apartment of Lucky Spencer. Nikolas has just seen that Sam is alive and deduced that Lucky was aware the entire time. He punched Lucky.

    Sam: Why in the hell would you punch him? Who are you? Why are you here?

    Nikolas: I'm your cousin Nikolas. Get up Lucky!

    Lucky: What was that for?

    Nikolas: You bastard. How could you do this? How could you do this to us?

    Sam: What is he talking about Lucky? What did you do?

    Nikolas: You continued to allow us to believe that Sam was dead when she was staying with you all along?

    Sam: They thought I was dead?

    Nikolas: Why…why does she keep asking questions?

    Lucky: Because she can't remember. Damn you hit hard.

    Nikolas: Not hard enough. How could you keep this from us?

    Lucky: I didn't do anything. Sam showed up on Thanksgiving with no memory of what went down over the summer. She doesn't know why, but she asked me not to call anyone to let them know she was alive. (turning to Sam). Sam, can you give Nikolas & I some privacy?

    Sam: Sure. If you need me, I'll be in the back.

    When Sam leaves, Lucky takes Nikolas over to the sofa and gets ready to tell him his theory regarding Sam's alleged death.

    - Elizabeth arrives at Kelly's for her lunch date with Audrey. Elizabeth puts on a happy face but her grandmother knows that she's faking it. Audrey gets Elizabeth to open up about her problems with Lucky and her conflicting feelings for Jason.

    Audrey: You know how I feel about the situation Elizabeth. But I will not force my opinions and beliefs upon you. You need to make a decision that will benefit not only you but your child as well. Do you really want to be with Lucky? Do you want to be with him because you love him or because you feel like you should stay?

    Elizabeth: Honestly grandmother I don't know. I love Lucky with all of my heart. But things haven't been great between us since Sam died. I feel like I'm doing something wrong. But with Jason….with Jason I feel like I am free and I can be myself.

    Audrey: Then you have a lot of thinking to do my dear. No matter what you decide, I will be there for you if you need me. I will always be here for you my dear.

    Elizabeth: Thanks Gram.

    - At the Quartermaine Mansion, Tracy is looking for Luke to give him a surprise. Upset that she's unable to find him, she asks Alice where he could be. The gargantuan maid informs Tracy that Luke received a call from Holly and went off to go help her. Tracy throws a fit, pissed off that her husband again is chasing around a woman besides her. Tracy mopes her way downstairs and finds Skye talking on the phone with Lorenzo. Ned forsees a possible situation and drags his mother into the den. Ned tells Tracy to sit down, shut up and listen because he has something to say.

    - After a long day of work and shopping for groceries, Bobbie is ready to do nothing but take a nice bath and sleep. First however, she has to carry all of these damn groceries. Lucas, who's been on clearing his head, sees his mother struggling with the bags and is tempted to go over and help her. He turns around to walk the other way but something stops him. Knowing that he might regret it later, he turns back around and runs to her house. He surprises her a bit, but all he says is "Let me help you Mom."

    After making a few trips, he helps her unpack the groceries. Bobbie is happy that her son is around to help her. She notices that he picked up her laundry bags and carries them upstairs for her. She smiles at first, but is then overcome with sadness. She still can't believe that her big strong son is gay. He comes back down and gets ready to leave.

    Bobbie: Can't you stay a little bit longer?

    Lucas: Why so you can go off about how I'll never be accepted or be happy because I'm gay? No mom, I can't. I can't stay.

    Bobbie: Lucas…..please. I miss talking to you. I miss spending time with you.

    Lucas: I miss spending time with you too mom. But if you're going to constantly bash the choices I'm making in my life then I don't want to be around you. I can't be around you. I'll see you around.

    Bobbie: Lucas….you're father would want you to stay for a while.

    Lucas stops in his tracks. Before Tony moved away, he asked Lucas to give Bobbie time to adjust and try to hear her out when she is reach to talk.

    Lucas: Fine. I'll stay.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies

    Opening Video

    - GH begins in the office of Dr. Lainey winters. Lorenzo Alcazar has requested to meet with her to discuss Diego’s departure from his life. Lainey tries to get Alcazar to see that Diego leaving was not his (Lorenzo’s) fault. As she reads the letter, she gets better insight into the mind of his young son. She offers to be someone that Lorenzo can confide in if he wants to. Much to her surprise, Lorenzo decides that he wants to continue having therapy sessions with Lainey even though Diego is now gone.

    - Elsewhere, Monica walks into Kevin’s office crying. He doesn’t get up from his desk, but asks her what’s wrong. Monica cannot believe the things that Alan said to her and is furious with the fact that he’s gotten her so upset. Kevin wipes the tears from her eyes and remarks on her beauty. Kevin tells Monica that she needs someone who’ll love her unconditionally and won’t be so insulting to her. As much as Monica wants to fight her attraction to Kevin, she can’t. Monica asks Kevin to make love to her right there and now. Kevin thinks they should do it in a more private area, but Monica wants him now.

    Monica begins carefully removing what’s on Kevin’s desk. Kevin gently pushes her into the chair, then knocks EVERYTHING from his desk. He then leans Monica on the desk and begins to kiss her. She kisses him and unbuttons his shirt as he goes to unbuckle his jeans. Unbeknownst to the two of them, David Hayward enters Kevin’s office to get a psych consult for patient when he stumbles across the two of them. Shocked, he takes out his camera phone and snaps a few pictures before leaving unnoticed.

    - Meanwhile, Sam is staring out of the window in Lucky’s apartment. A voice echoes in her head. “He hurt you, and now he must pay” repeats over and over in her head. She sees a woman fall off her porch but is caught by her husband. A flash occurs, triggering a memory to when Jason caught Liz after she was pushed by Helena. Sam clutches the spot on her neck where her necklace used to be when she hears someone come in.

    Sam: Lucky I didn’t think you’d-

    Sam is speechless when she turns around. The person who just entered the apartment is Nikolas!

    Nikolas: What in the hell? Sam? Where…you’re dead!

    Sam: What?!

    The two of them stare at each other, unsure of what to say next.

    Lucky: Hey Sam, sorry I took so long. I needed to….Whoa. Nikolas.

    Lucky is unsure of what to say. Before he can get another word out, Nikolas punches Lucky in the face. Sam rushes over to Lucky to help him and yells at Nikolas for punching him.

    - At the Port Charles Park, the media is preparing their notes for Carly’s press conference, scheduled to start any minute now. Lulu fixes her hair and tells Carly she looks fine. Carly and Lulu both smile at each other, then make their way to the podium. Carly begins to get nervous but when she sees Bobbie, Noah, Sonny & the kids she gets a boost of confidence.

    Carly: Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please? My name is Carly Corinthos. I’ve invited you all here to today to make an announcement. Recently I’ve been acquiring companies under the CarCor Industries banner. I’ve been positioning myself for a huge acquisition and it looks like my hard work has paid off. Thanks to some smart….business investments and alliances that I’ve made….I can now reveal that I am now the new owner of Deception Cosmetics.

    Everyone in the crowd whispers amongst themselves. Carly looks over to her family to see them kind of surprised as well.

    Carly: I was involved with Deception Cosmetics a few years ago, but I had a very small stake in the company. I respect everything that my aunt Laura Spencer did for the company, but my vision is so much more. With the help of the community, current and future workers, Deception will once again be at the top of the field.

    Lulu: We plan on taking Deception to the next level and then some.

    Reporter: Excuse me Ms. Corinthos, but what does this woman have to do with your company?

    Carly: This woman. This beautiful, remarkable, intelligent woman here is my cousin Leslie Lu Spencer. She is the daughter of Luke & Laura Spencer. She has been by my side through all the crap I had to go through to purchase the company. Lulu is young, energetic and full of life. She is someone who I could rebuild my company around. You can expect to see Lulu as the interim Face of Deception.

    Reporter: Isn’t that a blatant case of nepotism?

    Carly: Of course it is. But this is my company. I will familiarize myself with the staff and the models, but until I do, Leslie Lu Spencer is the Face of Deception.

    Reporter: We haven’t heard much from Jax Cosmetics in the past few years, will they return to the market as well?

    Carly: Jasper Jacks and I have worked out a partnership deal. As of last week, I own a considerable amount of stock in Jax Cosmetics.

    Reporter: What other things do you have in store? And will the recent downfall of Basic Black affect any of your business decisions?

    Carly: Well…for one thing we are not only working with cosmetics. Beginning 2007, we will begin work on our fashion line. Both Jax Cosmetics & Deception will team up for a ground breaking fashion show in March. Not only will our models wear our make up, but they will model our clothes as well. As far as Basic Black goes, I hear the idiot that was running the company caused them to go bankrupt. I can assure you all that Deception will not face the same fate as Basic Black. We will knock down any and all competition and will reign supreme. Why you ask? Because I’m Carly Corinthos. And I’m that damn good.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Nikolas lays into Lucky for keeping Sam’s presence a secret
    - Audrey asks Liz whether she really wants to be with Lucky or not
    - Tracy is angry when Luke takes off for another adventure
    - Lucas reaches out to Bobbie

    Opening Video

    - Lorenzo arrives home from a trip to Manhattan to find his house empty. He remembers that both he and Diego have an appointment with Lainey today so he goes upstairs to look for Diego. On his way up, he notices that the painting covering his safe is ajar and rushes over to it. Damn it, his money is missing. He calls Diego’s name once again, but gets no answer. When he opens Diego’s door, he is shocked to find most of Diego’s belongings gone. On the bed is a letter addressed to Lorenzo:


    Dear Pop,

    I am sorry for leaving like this. But I couldn’t take living in Port Charles any longer. I need to find myself. I need to figure out who I am before I can return. I am glad that we found each other and I wouldn’t erase any of the time that we spent together. But I need to be my own man pop. I need to get away from this town and the people in it. This includes you. I’m sorry I took your money without asking. I’ll pay you back, I promise. Oh, and I took one of your cars too. I’ll keep it in great condition. I swear it. Don’t come looking for me either. I need to do this on my own.

    Hasta Luego,

    Diego

    A tear slowly falls down Lorenzo’s cheek. He stares at the room that used to belong to his son, shakes his head, and walks out.

    - At Wyndemere, Nikolas is feeding little Spencer when Carly storms in.

    Carly: Nikolas, you have got to do something about your brother.

    Nikolas (looking up at Carly): And good afternoon to you too Carly.

    Carly: Oh. Sorry. Good afternoon Nikolas. Now…what are you gonna do about Lucky?

    Nikolas: I’m not going to do anything about Lucky. He’s a grown man.

    Carly: But he listens to you. If you don’t convince him to go back to Elizabeth, then she’s going to hook up with Jason and I cannot have that happen. Jason’s been lost since Sam died, and I think Liz is trying to capitalize on that.

    Nikolas: Capitalize? She’s not like that Carly.

    Carly: Oh please, she’s always wanted Jason. And now, she has the perfect opportunity to snag him. Jason isn’t thinking clearly.

    Nikolas: He’s not the only one taking Sam’s death hard. Alexis was here and broke down.

    Carly: Well, Lucky didn’t take her death too well either.

    Carly (walking over, taking Nikolas’ hand): I want my cousin to be happy Nik. And as much as I hate the woman, Elizabeth makes him happy. Would you please talk to him?

    Nikolas: I’ll tell you what. What I’ll do is talk to Lucky about talking to Alexis, so they can work through heir issues regarding Sam’s death. And I’ll also suggest that Lucky let Elizabeth back into his life. Will that make you happy?

    Carly: Aww! That’s great! Thanks Nik!

    Carly kisses him on the cheek, then grabs her things. She turns around before she leaves.

    Carly: And don’t forget to watch my press conference tomorrow. I’ve got some big news.

    Nikolas: I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

    - While at the MetroCourt with Kristina, Alexis thinks she sees the woman from the lake. She tries to convince herself that she’s just imagining things, but a part of her wants to believe this woman is her daughter. She runs up to the woman and grabs her, only to be disappointed when it’s not Sam. “Sorry,” she says. “I thought you were someone I knew.” Ric comes up and asks what’s wrong, but she shrugs it off. Unbeknownst to the two of them, the woman Alexis saw backtracks and makes her way to Helena who's been watching from afar. Helena hands the woman a wad of cash and tells her she's done well. She stands proud that her actions from the summer continue to mess with Alexis’ head.

    - Back at GH, Alan tries to surprise Monica with a bouquet of flowers. Alan apologizes for picking a fight with her after the ELQ meeting, but couldn’t understand why she supported Tracy over Skye. Monica flashes back to seeing Kevin flirt with Skye before the meeting. She tells Alan that she can do whatever she damn well pleases, and is sick and tired of answering to him. She shoves the bouquet back into his arms and tells him to get out. Tired of being treated this way for months, Alan tells Monica that he’s sick of her attitude. He can’t make their marriage work if he’s the only one who wants to save it. He tells Monica that he’s tired of making an ass out of himself by being nice to her, when all she does is show him her ass so to speak. He calls her an ungrateful, soulless, bitter woman who wants to make everyone miserable because she’s not happy. He tells her to get out of his office and not to come back in until she learns to show him respect. Monica then storms out of his office. She tries to keep her composure and go on with her day, but can’t bring herself to do it. She finds herself walking around in circles until she gets to Kevin’s office….

    - The camera finally cuts to the workings of ELQ. It appears that Tracy has called most of the important employees to the auditorium of the building for an important meeting. After going through the basics, such as informing them of the power change, she focus her attention to more important business.

    Tracy: It has come to my attention that there are some people who we just cannot work with under any circumstances. As your CEO, I want ELQ to have a healthy work environment, but unfortunately, there are those who will never be able to go along with the changes and be a “team player.” After much consideration, I’ve decided to eliminate the Villa Interior department.

    The employees begin to talk amongst themselves. Skye stands up and begins to yell at Tracy.

    Skye: Tracy what is wrong with you? These people work hard at what they do and don’t deserve to loose their jobs just because you don’t like the fact that I got Edward to sign off on the department.

    Tracy: It doesn’t matter what you think Skye or my father. I am running things now. Now I think you should sit down.

    Skye: No, you should sit down. I am so sick of you throwing around your weight. Luke, how can you just allow her to act this way?

    Luke: Easy….I realized that Tracy will do what she wants, no matter what anyone thinks about it. You need to realize that things are changing Skye. Either get with the program or leave.

    Skye looks hurt that Luke didn’t back her up on anything.

    Tracy: You know…..someone told me a while back that a little public humiliation is just what a person needs sometimes. So….with that said…

    Ned: Mother, don’t.

    Tracy: Skye Chandler, your services are no longer needed here at ELQ. Pack your things at get out.

    Skye: Excuse me?

    Tracy: You heard me. You’re fired. Security, please escort Ms. Chandler to her office to collect her belongings, and then take her out of the building.

    Tracy smirks at Skye evilly as Skye is taken away by security personnel.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Carly has a press conference, revealing her new company!
    - Nikolas shows up Lucky’s and find someone he didn’t expect
    - Monica & Kevin make love in his office, but someone oversees the entire thing!
    - Lorenzo wants to continue therapy with Lainey

    Opening Video

    - David Hayward makes his way into Alan's office at GH. Alan greets him in and the two begin to talk about his residence at Pine Valley. He starts to tell Alan about his work and what he has done at the hospital in Pine Valley, but is very vague about everything else, and Alan happens to pick up on it.

    Alan: Dr. Hayward, I sense that you are not being totally forthcoming about your time in Pine Valley.

    David: Dr. Quartermaine, I don't see how my personal life is any of your concern. I’ve given you a run down of my accomplishments at PVH, I’ve also given you recommendations from my superiors. Anything else beyond my professional ability is off-limits. You are only here to interview me for a position at General Hospital. So, unless there is something else that I should know about....

    Alan: That’s understandable. I know that you have excellent credentials. I just don’t want to make a mistake by bringing you on staff. You may have been vague about some other things that have happened, but I am aware of such things. Such as your license being revoked a few years ago. But that’s another issue for another day. If there is any reason why I should have second thoughts on giving you the job, speak up now, or get out of my office immediately.

    David sits there with a sly grin on his face before responding to Alan's ultimatum.

    David: You have absolutely nothing to worry about. My skills in medicine are far more advanced than you or anyone else on your staff can ever imagine. I can do things for patients most doctors could not even dream of. So, yes...Alan....I am gonna make damn sure that this job will be mine. You can bank on that.

    David puts out his hand, and both gentlemen begin to shake hands, leaving David to know full well that they were able to reach an agreement.

    - At Kelly's, Maxie is sitting at the counter when Dillon walks in, She then grins, knowing it is her perfect opportunity to get on his case more about the Lucas situation. She walks over to his table, and gives him a hello, but Dillon looks up and ignores her. Maxie decides to sit down at his table.

    Dillon: (sarcastically) Please, sit down.

    Maxie: Look, I know we have been on the outs for a while now...

    Dillon: Ok, I am just gonna have you skip the sappy speech and cut right to the point. What is it you want, Maxie?

    Maxie: I'm just here to tell you, that I am always here, whenever you want to talk, about your feelings for the one you can't have.

    Dillon: (starts to get more frustrated) Do you think I’m stupid Maxie? I wouldn’t trust you if you told me the sky was blue.

    Maxie: Dillon, I’m offended.

    Dillon (sarcastically): Maxie, so not my problem. Can't you get it through your head that what you believe I feel for Lucas is just nonsense?

    Maxie: My, getting on the defensive. And I didn't even bring upLucas, so you must obviously have him on the mind to blurt his name out and get all hot and bothered.

    Dillon: Shut up, Maxie!

    Just then, Lulu walks into Kelly's and overhears the Maxie/Dillon conversation.

    Maxie: Why can't you just admit it, Dillon. You know it, and pretty soon everyone will know it, as well as your precious Georgie. (She leans in closer speaking barely above a whisper) You have the hots for Lucas, and I’m gonna prove it.

    Lulu runs over and yells at Maxie for being a pain in the ass. Maxie tries to ignore her, but Lulu backs her against the wall. She tells Maxie that Dillon doesn’t have time to listen to her babbling and orders her out. Maxie snarks at Dillon once more before leaving. Lulu tells Dillon not to worry about Maxie, she’s just bitter and lonely.

    - At ELQ, Carly runs into Luke. She mentions that she saw Lulu earlier and she was worried abou the repercussions from Luke & Tracy’s actions. Luke tells his Carly that Lulu doesn't need to worry her pretty little head about anything. But, Carly jumped the topics around to the deal that she and Luke made, and decides to make sure he comes through.

    Carly: Just so that we are on the up and up, Luke, I want to make sure that you’re going to give me what I asked for. We had a deal, and I expect you to keep your word.

    Luke: I’m a Spencer. My word is my bond.

    Carly: Exactly.

    Luke: I told you Caroline, if you came through for me that you’d get what you wanted. And I always keep my promises. I told Tracy what you were trying to do, and she took care of everything.

    Carly: You're kidding.

    Luke: 'Fraid not, niece of mine. ELQ purchased the company, and now I’m signing over the shares over to you. As of right now…(signs the documents he needed to sign)....you are officially the owner.

    Carly goes to grab the contract from Luke. But, when she does, Luke grabs her hand before she can walk away from him. He tells Carly not to screw up this opportunity, especially since if it wasn’t for him and Tracy it would have never happened. Carly gives him her word that this company will do nothing but succeed, and he can bank on that. Luke then smiles and takes a swig of his beer.

    - At General Hospital, Bobbie is working at her station when Noah walks by. He gives her some flowers, and she starts to smile at his great gesture. He begins to tell her how wonderful she looks today, and then tells Noah that he didn't have to do that to her, after what had happened at her place before Thanksgiving. Noah replied that it was forgotten and she need not to worry about it anymore. She acted how one would normally act in her position, and then asked if it was all right with her, if they could go out on another date. Bobbie was thrilled to have Noah ask, and she graciously accepted. The two share a kiss before Noah walks off.

    - Lucky and Sam are talking when someone knocks on the door. Lucky signals for Sam to be quiet.

    Voice (yelling from outside the door): Lucky open up. It’s Jason.

    Sam (whispering to Lucky): Jason? That name sounds familiar.

    Lucky: Go away Jason. I have nothing to say to you.

    Jason: Come on Lucky, Let me in! What are you doing in there?

    Lucky: none of your damn business.

    Jason: Listen…I just wanted to apologize for the way things went down at the Quartermaine’s on Thanksgiving.

    Lucky: Yeah. Water under the bridge. I really want you to go now.

    When Jason walks away, Sam has another flashback. This time, it’s one of her and Jason dancing in the rain on the rooftop of the Penthouse. When it’s over, Sam stumbles and Lucky catches her. She says that she knows that voice. Lucky tells her to give it some more time before she begins trying to push her memory.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Tracy flexes her power at ELQ, which means bad news for Skye
    - Carly tries to get Nikolas to talk some sense into his brother
    - Tired of Monica's treatment of him, Alan lets her have it

    Produced by: Ryan Chandler

    Opening Video

    - Lulu runs into Carly at MetroCourt, and the two begin to talk about how Tracy is the new CEO of ELQ. Carly starts questioning her just why exactly Lulu is is worried about the ELQ business. Lulu tries to shrug it off, but Carly knows otherwise, and suspects that this could put a strain in her friendship with Dillon. Lulu feels that a part of her will still love Dillon, but she doesn't want this ELQ business to put more stress on him now that Tracy and Luke are involved in the business.

    - While she was thinking about Dillon, we see Dillon sitting in his room and he starts to think about Georgie. The two are just discussing anything on the sofa, and start to play around with each other a bit, and the two delve into a passionate kiss. Just as the two stop kissing, Georgie backs away, and Dillon suddenly sees Lucas instead of her. Just then, Lucas and Dillon begin to give into temptation, but Dillon snaps out of his dream, and starts breathing heavily. He becomes very agitated, and throws a glass across the room. Georgie hears this and runs out, asking Dillon what is wrong, and he stands there with a surprised expression on his face, staring at the broken glass.

    - Mac walks into the PCPD after coming back from a meeting at the Police Convention when he overhears Mayor Floyd and Ric discussing Mac.

    Mayor Floyd: Mr. Lansing, you know that I respect the work that you and your wife DA Davis does for the city, however your job is unable to be done to the best of your ability because of the incompetence of the person running this department.

    Ric: With all due respect Mayor, I think Mac does a good job. He and his officers have worked hard to reduce the crime rate and keep the peace between two rival mob families.

    Mayor: Mac does a good job. But I need him to do a great job. The fact that he has to keep the “peace” between two criminal organizations is a joke. He should have them thrown jail. Brother or not Ric, Sonny has to go down. If I don’t get results soon, I may have to take some action.

    Ric: I understand Mr. Mayor. I understand that you’re in a tough position right now, but I think that whatever action you may or may not take should be thought over carefully.

    Mayor: Whatever decisions I may, or may not take will be up to me Mr. Lansing. While I value your input, I didn’t ask for it. Don’t make it a habit of offering me your opinion without me asking for it. You understand?

    Ric: Yes sir.

    Mayor Floyd excuses himself. Mac sees him coming and ducks out of sight. Ric takes out his phone to call Alexis, but gets her voicemail. Ric grabs his belongings and leaves. Mac then makes his way into his office and sits down, shaking his head.

    - Alexis is sitting at Wyndemere, and starts to remember that awful night of the accident, and what happened to Sam. She tries to play the scene differently had Sam had not died, if there was a possibility she could have done something to save her. She snaps out of it when she hears Nikolas enter the room with a cup of tea. He asks what was wrong, but Alexis tries to cover it up and says it was nothing.

    Alexis: I am just...I'm trying to get everything situated, you know? I mean, this...this table over here....I think it would great by the door.

    Nikolas: O...k. What is going on?

    Alexis: Nothing! I just want to do some re-arranging. And this couch...this couch here can go almost near the fireplace. It would make for a nice, comfy spot, don't you think?

    Nikolas: Sounds...great. Really great.

    Alexis: Ok, great, so the couch can go near the fire.....

    Just then, Alexis starts to have flashbacks to the fire that killed her daughter. She continues to see them, and she finally starts to have a breakdown and begins to cry.

    Alexis: The fire. Ha, the fire. My god the fire!!! THE FIRE!!!

    Nikolas: Alexis stop.

    Alexis: THE FIRE! THE FIRE! THE FIRE! GOD DAMN IT THE FIRE!!

    Alexis throws the pillows from the couch into the fire place and knocks off the items on mantle above it.

    Alexis: (cries) I can't...I can't do this anymore. She's gone....my daughter is gone! She will never know what it is like to actually know her family, to know her sisters. My god, Kristina and Molly will never know Sam the way they should. She will never get to know you. And she will never know who I am...all because...because...oh my god! (yells) WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE ME??!!! SAM DIDN'T DESERVE THIS!!! YOU SHOULD HAVE TAKEN ME INSTEAD!!! DAMN YOU HELENA! YOU HEAR ME!!! DAMN YOU!!!!

    Nikolas then runs over and grabs Alexis and hugs her, as she just cries hysterically in his arms, knowing that she will never see Sam again.

    Nikolas: Alexis, look at me. Look at me! Had it been you instead of Sam, you would have left three daughters without their mother. I am angry that I will never to get the chance to know Sam either, but you have to be strong for your other children. You’ve been holding this in all these months and I’m glad you let it out. Don’t forget Alexis, that I will always be here for you. We’re family. That’s what we do.

    Nikolas continues to console his aunt and let her cry.

    - At General Hospital, a man asks directions to Alan Quartermaine's office. He is directed to ask the person at the Nurse's Station. The camera never shows his face, only showing his lower body and back. The women in the hospital can’t help but stare, I mean, this guy is attractive in his own way. He makes his way to the Nurse’s Station where he finds Elizabeth working.

    Man: Excuse me miss.

    Liz: May I help you sir?

    Man: Yes you may. I’m looking for a Dr. Alan Quartermaine. Can you tell me where he is?

    Liz: Sure. Do you have an appointment?

    Man: Yes, I do.

    Liz: He’s in office 181.

    Man: Thank you. Thank you very much miss….

    Liz: Spencer. I’m Elizabeth Webber Spencer.

    Man: Ah yes. Spencer. And a Webber? Wow. That’s quite an accomplishment.

    Liz: I was born a Webber. I’m married to a Spencer. I think you might want to be on your way now sir.

    Man: Thanks again Mrs. Webber Spencer.

    Liz: And your name sir?

    The camera finally shows his face.

    Opening Video

    - GH begins with Robin talking with Liz at the Nurse’s Station. Liz shows Robin some pictures that were recently taken of her and Cameron. Robin asks if she and Lucky are on good terms once again, but Liz says no. Robin says her goodbye and heads over to the elevator. She is surprised when Patrick steps off the elevator and greets her with a big hug. Robin tries to hide her enthusiasm but it just radiates off her. Patrick smiles and says he’s glad to be home. He apologizes for their fight before he left, as does Robin. He tells her that Jamie stowed away in his car before he left and went to Salem with him. Robin automatically assumes that the two of them slept together.

    Patrick denies that he slept with Jamie, but says she wanted to. He turned her down, stating that even though they were staying at the Cheatin’ Heart, his heart belongs to Robin. She smiles at that, but asks where Jamie is. Sadness sweeps over his face, then informs Robin that Jamie was mistaken for someone else and was murdered while they were in Salem. Apparently there’s a killer (or copycat) who murders people and leaves a black glove behind. Robin is sad about Jamie, but is happy that he’s returned to her safely.

    - At Lucky’s apartment, Lucky tries to get Sam to remember the pieces she can’t by telling her about her life. The two of them are interrupted when someone bangs on his door, calling his name. Sam goes to hide in the bedroom. Lucky opens the door, Carly walks into his place angry. She cuts right to the point and says that he needs to make up with Liz so she (Carly) can save Jason from the clutches of Elizabeth. Jason laughs at Carly and yells at her for coming over here trying to fix his marriage. Carly tries to play up their family connection by saying that Lucky hasn’t been happy since Liz left.

    Carly wants her cousin to be happy and if Liz is that person, then he should take her back. Lucky tells her since they’re “looking out” for family now, he warns her not to get involved with Nikolas. Carly deflects, saying nothing is going on, that she and Nikolas are only friends. Lucky tells her that if she doesn’t want him in her business, than she should mind her own. He orders her out. She calls him just as stubborn as his father and slams his door. Lucky can do nothing but laugh at Carly for trying. Sam comes back out and asks who that was. Lucky promises he’ll tell her all about Carly.

    - At Alcazar’s, Lorenzo is on the phone with a business associate discussing the mayor’s talk with Mac. Lorenzo says that Mac is under a lot of pressure right now, and now is the time to strike. As he’s talking he hears Skye come in and ends his call. Noticing that she’s in a bad mood, he tries to comfort her, but she doesn’t want to be bothered. Skye then vents about the situation at ELQ and is worried that Tracy will do something to spite her. Lorenzo says that Tracy can only do what Skye allows her to, and if she wants things to change she has to stand up to her.

    - Nikolas is in the middle of doing some paperwork when Alexis walks in. Without saying a word, he walks over to her and hugs her. The unspoken words between them are just as loud as if they were talking. Alexis tries to hide her pain, but lets it out in front of Nikolas.

    - Tracy walks into the Quartermaine Mansion tired after a long day. She walks into the den to find the lights off, the fireplace going and someone sitting on the sofa. Tracy goes to turn the light on, but the voice tells her not to. Tracy realizes it’s Ned and asks him how he’s doing.

    Ned: Don’t you dare ask me how I am. Thanks to you mother, my opportunity to run ELQ has been yanked from underneath me.

    Tracy: So you know then?

    Ned: Of course I know. Grandfather told me that I was his selection for a replacement and that irritated you didn’t it? Using Skye as your excuse was just pathetic. You knew all along that I was to be chosen.

    Tracy: That is not true. I was led to believe that Skye was going to be chosen and I couldn’t allow her to be it Ned. I couldn’t allow that interloper to continue to weave her way into my family’s company, our family company.

    Ned: Skye IS family mother! Whether or not you like it, you have to accept it. Skye is a Quartermaine. She’s just as much of a Quartermaine as Emily is. Being adopted doesn’t not make you a Quartermaine.

    Tracy: But they are not real Quartermaines. Having the Quartermaine name means nothing if the blood of my mother and father doesn’t flow through your veins.

    Ned: Shut up. Just shut up! I am so sick of your excuses. You disliked my career as a musician, so I try to make you proud by going into the family business yet you screw me over in the end. Let me ask you a question though, would you consider stepping down?

    Tracy: Of course not. As much as I may feel bad about what happened, I can’t change what is already done. I will not apologize for what I did because I know I did the right thing.

    Ned: Let me tell you something. I believe even if you had known about grandfather’s selection….you would have pulled this stunt. You so desperately want grandfather’s approval and it just kills you that you never seem to get it.

    Tracy: So I take it you’re upset then.

    Ned: No mother, I’m not. I pity you. I just pray that you don’t mess up the company.

    Tracy: I don’t have to listen to this. You are an ungrateful child Edward Ashton. You want to blame me because I outsmarted my father? Fine. If you need to do that to feel better then fine. But don’t you dare try to act like I committed this tragic & heinous crime against you. If you had used any of the intelligence that you inherited from me, you would have done what I did.

    Deep down, Tracy is hurt by the way her son feels, but knows that he’ll get past it. She turns away and storms out of the living room, leaving her son staring at the fireplace with his glass…

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - A fan favorite debuts
    - The realization that Sam will never really know her sisters or her mother really takes its toll on Alexis; she breaks down to Nikolas.

    ICU: Tracy, Edward & ELQ Board Meeting
    Sunday, December 03, 2006

    Written by: Ryan Chandler & Na’Vell J. Lee
    Produced by: Ryan Chandler

    Opening Video

    ACT I

    GH begins with the members of the board of ELQ chatting with each other. Monica keeps her distance from Alan, Tracy & Luke discuss strategy with one another, Ned tells Skye that unlike the rest of the family, he won’t ostracize her for being with the one she loves. Everyone gets silent when Edward walks into the room.

    Edward: Good evening. I called you all here to discuss the news about the state of ELQ. First off, I want to say that our chance to acquire Basic Black which is based out of Salem, fell through due to the incompetence of one, Tracy Quartermaine.

    Tracy: So you decided this is the time to discuss this? In front of the board?

    Skye: Maybe a little public humiliation will do you some good Tracy.

    Tracy: I'll show you some damn public humiliation.

    Alan: Stop you two.

    Luke: I’m all for two beautiful women fighting in the board room.

    Monica: No one asked you what you wanted Luke.

    Ned: That’s right. Maybe you should be quiet Luke.

    Tracy: Don’t you speak to my husband that way.(turning to Luke) Shut up.

    Edward (clearing his throat): As I was saying, the failure to acquire that company has made what I’m about to say a lot easier. As many of you know, I returned this past summer and took control of my company once more. I felt that under the leadership of Tracy, we were going nowhere, so, I did what I thought was right and removed her as the CEO. Now that I’ve been back, I’ve remembered what a stressful and challenging job being the CEO is. At my age, this is something that I should not be doing on a day to day basis.

    ACT II

    Just then Carly strolls into the board room.

    Carly: Sorry I’m late.

    Tracy (whispering to Luke): What is she doing here?

    Luke: I don’t know. She told me that we had her votes, but I didn’t know she would show up. That’s why I have her proxies.

    Tracy: Well they are useless now since she’s showed up.

    Alan: What is she doing here?

    Edward: I’ve asked Carly to be here because this is very important business that needs to be tended to. Alan, as much as I may dislike Carly, she holds two votes on this board and it is crucial that she is here. Now…..I have decided that though I’m just as sharp as I was 30 years ago, I can no longer serve the way I want. I have stood aside in the past to allow those in my family to step up and prove themselves. And while some have succeeded, others have disappointed me greatly. After some long, hard debating on the subject, I realize that it is time for the new direction at ELQ. That is why I am stepping down as the CEO.

    A loud chorus of “what” is spread throughout the room. All appear to be shocked, even Carly. Through Tracy and Luke don’t act surprised, Alan reacts very differently.

    Alan: Father, you can't be serious! ELQ is your life. No one can run it as smoothly as you can.

    Edward: Alan, ever since Lila died, I knew this was what I had to do. Besides, if it were up to me, you would be running this company but you chose a different path.

    Alan: So it’s already done. No questions about it?

    Edward: That is correct. As a matter of fact, this is why I called you here today. To meet who I have selected to lead ELQ after my departure. I expect the board will go along with my decision.

    Everyone in the board room looks at one another, wondering just who exactly Edward will name CEO of ELQ.

    ACT III

    Edward: I have thought this situation over very carefully and I want the board to respect my decision, and to confirm my selection.

    Tracy (to Luke): Now is the time.

    Edward: My choice is someone who is headstrong. Someone who I trust will lead this company upward and do me proud. Originally I thought that this position would be held by another, but I’ve changed my mind. It is time that I-

    Tracy: It is time that you sit down and let someone else speak.

    Alan: Tracy?! Show some respect.

    Tracy: Shut up Alan! For too long I’ve been jerked around by your whimsical decisions. First you’re here, then you’re not, then you return, then you leave. NO MORE. I know exactly who you planned on selecting as your successor and I will have nothing of it.

    Edward: There is no way you could have known.

    Tracy: I’ve known for weeks now that you’ve planned on stepping down and Daddy, I think this is the greatest gift that you could give us. However, the person you had in mind, will surely not be confirmed by the board.

    Monica: You don’t know that Tracy. I have no problem confirming Edward’s selection.

    Alan: Neither do I.

    Tracy: Oh really? You’d really confirm the girlfriend of a mobster? The future wife of a crimeboss? I mean come on, this entire company would go to hell.

    Skye: Edward has even selected his replacement yet and you just assume it’s me? I mean I’m flattered if it was true, and I’d do my best. My relationship with Lorenzo is not a factor.

    Luke: Actually it is Blaze. We all know that you tend to lose your reasoning when it comes to him.

    Skye: Why? Because I chose him over you? This whole supporting thing that you’re doing with Tracy is just you trying to prove that you’re over me.

    Tracy: He doesn-

    Luke: I can speak for myself. While we did have something special, you couldn’t accept me for who I am. I made a fool of myself chasing you around and begging you to choose me. Well I stopped it. I had someone who loved me for who I am, faults and all, in her own twisted way. Spanky buns here is my choice Skye. What I feel for her, as dysfunctional as it may be, is real. I don’t have to fake anything with her or be someone that I’m not.

    Tracy: Exactly. And it is because of Luke that you will never be seated as the CEO.

    Edward: QUIET!! You will not disrupt this meeting any longer Tracy! My selection will be named and approved now.

    Tracy: No it won’t. Under the by-laws of ELQ, I am officially challenging your selection of Skye as the CEO and putting myself in the contention. And under article U section 135, you cannot do anything else until an up or down vote is taken. I am ordering that my challenge be put on record and I get either a yes or no vote as to whether I will be the new CEO.

    ACT IV

    Edward: Tracy you don’t understand what-

    Alan: No father. Let her do it. Let Tracy be embarrassed by her actions when we vote no.

    Ned: Mother you need to respect grandfather’s decision.

    Edward; FINE! One by one, we will vote. As chairman of the board, we will take a take vote.

    Edward begins calling the names of those on the board and asking for there vote. Voting goes just the way Tracy and Luke expected, but there were some things they didn’t count on. For instance, Monica backs Tracy as the CEO and uses Emily’s proxy as well to give Tracy her vote. Alan sides with Edward’s decision. Carly actually comes through for Luke & Tracy and gives her two votes to Tracy. When all is said and done, Tracy is voted in the new CEO of ELQ! Tracy smiles to everyone as the meeting comes to end. The other members apologize to Edward, but say they were kind of forced to vote her way. Alan tries to get Monica to explain her actions, but she feels she is under no obligation to explain anything to him.

    ACT V

    Two hours after the meeting, Tracy walks into Edward’s office gloating. Edward however, is not happy.

    Tracy: What’s wrong daddy? I thought you would be proud of me for what I did.

    Edward: A part of me is my dear, but another part of me is so disappointed in you. Did it ever occur to you that Skye was not my choice for the CEO?

    Tracy: Of course not. Who else would you chose? Me?

    Edward: No, I wasn’t going to chose you. I would have thought that you had more respect for your father’s business decisions, but you don’t. I know you’re happy with your coup, but I want you to understand something, maybe deep down in that black place that you call your heart, you’ll feel something.

    Tracy: I’m listening.

    Edward: Skye was in fact my choice for the CEO.

    Tracy: I knew it!

    Edward: Originally….

    Tracy: What?

    Edward: Originally I had chosen Skye, but there is no way that I would have allowed the CEO of ELQ to cavort around with a degenerate mobster. On top of that, Skye wouldn’t have been the best decision because of her lack of experience. The person I intended on selecting was Ned.

    Tracy: Ned?

    Edward: Yes. I have been too hard on him in the past, but this time, he would have had my complete support as the CEO. So congratulations Tracy. Due to your innate hatred of Skye, you robbed your son of the chance to make not only me, but you proud. So here’s to you Tracy. Madame CEO…here’s to your victory.

    Edward then takes the bottle of wine and hands it to Tracy. He looks at her with praise, yet also disappointment. He grabs his coat and exits the office. Tracy then slowly walks behind the desk that now belongs to her and sits down. She stares at the door with a blank expression on her face. No joy, no sadness, but a look of remorse. The camera slowly pulls away from the close up of her face as GH comes to an end.

    Opening Video

    - GH begins with Monica locking up her office at General Hospital. She’s not in a very good mood. Instead of spending her Friday afternoon having some leisure time, she’ll be locked in a board room with people who she can’t stand voting on business for a company that really serves no purpose for her. Monica ends up missing her floor while she’s in deep thought, so she backtracks and makes her way to the nurse’s station to sign out. There, she notices Kevin talking to a pretty woman. Monica feels something, but she’s not sure what. Could it be jealousy? No, it can’t be. She doesn’t love Kevin. They only slept together once; it shouldn’t matter to her who he sees. When then tries to put what’s going on out of her mind, but when she recognizes the woman it really sets her off inside. Kevin is flirting with Skye!!! Damn him she says to herself. That man has no shame. As the elevator doors are closing, Monica suggests that she may have to give Skye a piece of her mind after the meeting.

    - At the MetroCourt Boutique, Lucky has spent the last 2 hours searching for clothes in Sam’s size. It would have been so much easier if he hadn’t packed most of Liz’s belongings, but he’s a Spencer, he never does anything the easy way. The fact that Sam is kind of the same size as Lulu and Liz also helps. He buys about $300 worth of clothes for Sam. As he’s making his way out of the store he bumps into Liz. She tries to make small talk, but Lucky doesn’t want to hear it. After an awkward silence between them, Liz blurts out that she moved out of Jason’s place like she said she would and is staying at Emily’s old apartment. Liz then asks who the clothes are for. Lucky covers and says he bought Lulu some clothes for Christmas. He then tries to go out the door but stops when Liz says she loves him. Lucky shakes his head and walks out.

    - While strolling through the park, Sam hopes Lucky won’t be to worried that she’s gone out for a bit (why would he worry anyway right?). She’s been so sick and tired of being cooped up in the apartment. She just needed a breather. Sam stops when she gets to the water. She looks down at her reflection and has a memory flash. Fire…she feels really hot all of a sudden. When it’s over, a chill hits Sam.

    Across the other side of the park, Alexis plays with Kristina and Molly. The girls are getting so big. It’s a shame that Sam died. This would have been their first Christmas as a family. Alexis begins to cry a little when Kristina comes over to try and comfort her. Alexis tells Kristina she isn’t sad, she just misses someone, that’s all. Alexis asks the nanny to take the kids to the car while she gathers the rest of their belongings. As she’s picking up her purse, she sees a woman staring at her reflection across the water. Doing a double take, Alexis swears the woman could be Sam. But it can’t be….Sam’s dead. Alexis is overcome with sadness once again as she begins to walk to the car. She turns around one more time just to see, but the woman is gone!

    - Monica arrives at ELQ in a really bad mood. She knows she shouldn’t feel the way that she does. Who cares if Kevin flirts with Skye? He’s an upgrade over Lorenzo for sure and it’s not like she’s really with Kevin anyway. They just had one night…one night of intense, animalistic passion. She meets up with Alan and is surprisingly very civil to him while they’re in the elevator together. When they get to the floor where the conference room is, they find a bunch of the employees discussing rumors they overheard about the meeting. The doorman greets Alan & Monica at the door.

    Luke and Tracy come up soon after. Tracy squeezes Luke’s hand. He asks if she’s ready. After a short delay, Tracy takes a deep breath, then says she is.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    An ICU episode featuring Luke, Tracy, Skye, Edward and others involved in the ELQ Board meeting.

    - Edward makes his big announcement
    - Luke and Tracy’s plan could backfire when someone they didn’t expect to show up arrives

    Opening Video

    - GH opens with Lulu walking into Carly’s office. The young blonde flops on the couch in Carly’s office and lets out a huge sigh. Carly looks up, asking what’s wrong. Lulu complains about working at Kelly’s for such a crappy salary.

    Carly: Well you know Lulu, you won’t have to worry about the crappy pay much longer. Come next week, you’ll be one step closer to working with me.

    Lulu: Oh yeah, that whole “business” plan you were working on. When will you unveil your new company by the way?

    Carly: If all goes well with your father and Tracy tomorrow, I’ll be holding a huge press conference the following week. Let’s just say if all goes well, my new company will catapult Carly Corinthos into the history books!

    Lulu: You’d better make sure that my name is in the books with you. My father doesn’t have the best track record. And as far as the step-monster goes, I hear she’s pretty ticked off right now.

    Carly: Why?

    Lulu: Apparently she was trying to acquire this company for ELQ, but was manipulated into backing out of negotiations.

    Carly: Damn….anyone who can do that to Tracy is a guy I wanna meet.

    - While waiting in line for dinner reservations at Port 22, Brandon and Lucas talk with each other about what happened at Thanksgiving Dinner at the Quartermaines. While talking, Lucas keeps noticing the hostess staring at them. Brandon laughs when Lucas tells him about the fight between Liz and Carly. The couples in front of them are holding up the line by kissing each other. Lucas remarks that dinner would have been a lot better if Brandon was there with him. Lucas kisses Brandon then gets out his wallet to pay for his reservations. The hostess closes the book saying they’re full. Lucas begins to feel uneasy about the place and wants to leave, but Brandon demands to know why all of a sudden the place is fully booked. The woman quietly tells him that Port 22 is a place of fine dining where couples can go to enjoy each other’s company. What the two of them are…well, they aren’t a couple. Brandon gets ready to make a big fuss, but Lucas tells him to just go. Lucas then points out the sign that says management has the right to deny service.

    - Georgie and Maxie are talking about Dillon when Mac comes home. Maxie says hi, but Mac ignores her and goes straight upstairs. When he’s gone, Maxie proceeds to tell Georgie that it’s time for her to move on with her life. Georgie doesn’t understand why Maxie continues to try and push her and Dillon apart. Maxie flashes back to watching Dillon eyeball Lucas at the PCCC (Port Charles Community Center). Maxie says that though Dillon may tell her that he’s into her, there’s a chance that he’s not. Georgie gets angry with Maxie and storms out of the room. Maxie promises that she won’t let Dillon lead her sister on and will prove that he’s not into Georgie at all.

    - Lucky returns to his apartment to find Sam looking at pictures of he and Elizabeth with Cameron. She questions who the woman and child are and asks where they are. Lucky puts the food down and walks over to take the pictures out of her hand. Lucky tells her the truth, that the woman in the picture is his wife Elizabeth and son Cameron. When Lucky says her name, Sam flashes back to being in a building and someone familiar calling Elizabeth’s name. He calls her over to the sofa so they can eat. While eating, Sam asks Lucky to tell her what happened. Lucky is afraid of what to say to Sam, but he figures being honest with her will be the best thing. He tells her that there were some things that happened to her over the summer. Before he can even begin the story, Sam begins to have multiple quick distorted flashbacks. Sam asks Lucky to stop, not to tell her anything. She begins to sob in frustration because she feels it’s her fault. Lucky comforts her, telling her what happened to her isn’t her fault and will do everything he can to help her through this.

    - Lucky is caught buying female clothing
    - Monica gets jealous when she sees Kevin flirting with Skye

    Opening Video

    - When Lucky reports to the PCPD the next morning, he tries to act as if nothing is wrong. While he’s doing his paperwork, he keeps getting distracted by thoughts of Sam. It really bothers him that he wasn’t able to save her then, but he’ll do his best to save her now. His thoughts are interrupted when he notices the mayor enter the building and go into Mac’s office.

    - Mac kindly greets the mayor but can tell from the look on his face that this is not a courtesy visit. After being ordered to sit, Mayor Floyd begins to speak.

    Floyd: I am quite sure that you are aware of this Commissioner Scorpio, but I’ll say it anyway. Port Charles has a severe problem with crime, and I don’t believe that you’re doing the job up to par.

    Mac: With all due respect Mr. Mayor-

    Floyd: I don’t think I was finished. You have had the chance to clean up our streets and get rid of the organized crime here, yet you fail at every turn. Two of the biggest crime bosses reside in this town, yet you haven’t been able to make one crime they’ve committed stand in court. Your incompetence is affecting your officers Mr. Scorpio. I barely made it through another election term. The voters have made it perfectly clear that if I don’t do something to make this police force more effective, then I will be out of a job.

    Mac: Mr. Mayor I-

    Floyd: I will not lose my job because you can’t do yours Mr. Scorpio. Changes will be made in a few weeks. You’d better hope you have a job come January.

    The mayor then leaves Mac’s office.

    - At Lucky’s, Sam has a disturbing dream in which she is being burned alive. Unable to move or scream, the only thing she can do is take it. Two shadowy figures stand over her. One with the gasoline, one with a match while another watches from afar laughing at it all and other tries to save her. Sam awakens, screaming uncontrollably and drenched in sweat. What does this dream mean? And who was trying to save her?

    - Ned, Luke and Skye walks into Edward’s office as he’s complaining to Tracy about the failed acquisition of Basic Black. Tracy says that some British tart found a way to convince her that BB wouldn’t be good business for ELQ Industries. Edward changes the subject and prepares them for big business. Tracy sniped that it may be best of Skye leaves the office. Edward tells Tracy to shut up. He informs them all that he will be making a huge announcement on Friday regarding the future of ELQ and it’s subsidiaries. He orders them all to attend the board meeting on Friday as they will be required to vote on some business. Once he dismisses them, Luke pulls Tracy into one of the supply closets.

    Tracy: Now it is the not to pleasure your lower anatomy Luke.

    Luke: There’s plenty of time for that my little dark angel. So who was this British bumpkin who tickled your fancy and got you to change your mind?

    Tracy: First of all, no one tickles my fancy. His name was EJ I believe.

    Luke: What the hell kind of name is EJ?

    Tracy: Hell if I know. But I am not happy that we now won’t have the company under our wing. That would have been great momentum for me when I take over. If he thinks he’ll get away with that again, he’d better think again. I’m Tracy Quartermaine damn it!

    Luke: Well spanky buns, come Friday, it’s put up or shut up time.

    Tracy: Yes, I know that. Are we ready to go through with this?

    Luke: Everything has fallen into place. Carly has agreed to give me the two proxies that she controls….in return for a few favors after the takeover is done.

    Tracy: Good. It’s a sad day when our entire plan rests on your sorry excuse for a niece.

    Luke: Trust me Tracy, this is a go.

    Tracy: I’m telling you now, my first plan of business is to get rid of that guttersnipe.

    Luke: But there are so many. Which one are we talking about?

    Tracy: Skye….She must go first. Will you support me on this?

    Luke: I’ll support you in whatever it is that you do.

    Opening Video

    GH opens with Skye walking downstairs for breakfast. She greets her family warmly, as if nothing happened. Skye speaks to Alice, who gives her the cold shoulder. Skye questions why Alice is being so rude. Alice apologizes, saying she was ordered not to speak to her by Tracy. As Skye looks across the table at the other Quartermaines, she snaps at them, asking if she’s going to be treated this way for ever. Edward coldly responds that as long as she plans to marry him, they will have nothing to do with her.

    At the hospital, Lainey smiles at a picture of she at Justus. Deep down she’s saddened that he’s leaving town, but knows it will further his career down the line. Her thoughts are interrupted when Diego knocks on the door. She calls him in and asks him to sit. Lainey asked Diego to meet with her privately because she wanted to make things perfectly clear to him. She will not divulge anything that they discuss privately. Even though Diego may have felt ambushed last time during therapy that was not what both she and his father were going for. Lainey wants Diego to open up to her, but it’ll only work if he is willing to do so. After thinking it over, Diego agrees to give therapy an honest shot, and asks if they can start today.

    Nikolas puts in some quality time with his son Spencer. Though he would prefer it if Courtney didn’t hover, he knows that she’s just worried about the baby. While they’re bonding, Courtney asks how his friendship with Carly is going. Nikolas says they are currently on the outs because he doesn’t support her latest business scheme. Courtney tries to badmouth Carly, but Nikolas won’t allow it. While it is true that she and Carly were and kinda still are best friends, Courtney sees the chemistry between Nikolas & Carly and knows that eventually they’ll get together. Nikolas then hands the baby to Courtney while he goes to get some milk. Soon after, Helena appears from one of the tunnels, startling Courtney. Courtney doesn’t scream for Nikolas, instead she challenges Helena to try and take Spencer from her. Not in the mood for games today, Helena promises that eventually she will have Spencer. Nikolas returns in the middle of their conversation and orders Helena to leave immediately. When she does, Nikolas rushes over to Courtney and the baby and promises that he’ll never let Helena hurt them. Nikolas hugs a confused Courtney (who then smiles while hugging Nikolas) and kisses his son.

    When Sam awakens, she doesn’t seem to remember where she is. Lucky rushes over and gives her a hug and begins talking to her. All the while, Sam has a horrified look on her face. As she looks him up and down, she gives him a big hug, and then releases her hold. Lucky realizes that Sam is probably overwhelmed and asks what the last thing she remembers is. Sam tries to recall her last memory, but it’s nothing but a blur. Her demeanor begins to soften towards Lucky. Lucky reaches for the phone to call Alexis and Jason, but Sam begs him not to call anyone. When he mentions that he has to report to work, Sam tells him that if he wants to leave he can, she won’t go anywhere. Against his better judgment, he informs her where the aspirin is kept and promises he’ll be back shortly. After Lucky leaves, Sam passes out again….

    A VERY SPECIAL THANKSGIVING

    By Ryan,

    Secrets & Lies: Episode 31
    Saturday November 25, 2006

    Written by: Ryan Chandler, Na’Vell J. Lee & Venus Stone (SweetNYGal33)
    Produced by: Ryan Chandler & Na’Vell J. Lee

    Opening Video

    Act I

    Thanksgiving with the Quartermaines….what should be a great celebration for what the citizens of Port Charles are thankful for ends up a disaster. It wouldn’t be a holiday at the Quartermaines’ without some drama right?

    The evening starts off pretty tame you can say. There’s a bad storm outside, but no one is letting that get them down.

    Monica received a card in the mail from Emily wishing everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving and is sad that she wasn’t able to be home for holiday. Emily’s absence hits Monica quite hard. Alan notices how much his wife misses their daughter and goes over to hug her. Kevin witnesses this and forces a smile. Monica then tells Alan she’s fine and walks away.

    Lucky talks with Lulu, Lucas and Dillon about his return to work. Lulu changes the subject and wonders if Lucky has begun to make inroads with Elizabeth yet, but Lucky says it’s not up to him to do so. Elizabeth knew she was wrong and he has a right to be upset.

    “I that she made a mistake. But I mean, we’re only human. We all make mistakes Lucky. At least she didn’t sleep with him,” says Dillon.

    “I’ll tell you what, the first time you see your wife mounting someone who isn’t you, tell me how you feel.”

    Act II

    Bobbie comes up while they’re talking and puts her arm around Lucky. She informs all of her family that tonight is about being thankful for what we have. Not to discuss the problems we’ve all been having. Bobbie gives a long look at Lucas who realizes that his mother is trying very hard to be nice to him today. Lucas just rolls his eyes and goes over to Carly who’s talking with Monica and Edward about Michael. Carly excuses herself to speak with Lucas.

    “What in the hell your problem?”

    “It’s Mom. She’s trying to hard to be nice to me.”

    “And your problem is?”

    “She shouldn’t have to try. It should be easy for her.”

    “Honestly Lucas, I think you’re being too hard on her. Bobbie has a lot of things to deal with, and I think you should be grateful that she’s doing her best not to argue with you about your sexuality. All I can say is for you to----”

    Carly stops talking when Jason enters the Quartermaine Mansion with Elizabeth at his side. Lucky can’t believe that Jason actually showed up to Thanksgiving Dinner, especially with his wife. Alan and Monica go greet the two of them at the door, trying to make Jason as comfortable as possible.

    Lulu walks up to the two of them and makes a snide comment towards Liz. Luke pulls his daughter away and tells her to go make nice with Bobbie. Luke’s attention is diverted to his wife who calls him into one of the offices. With a huge smile on her face, Tracy informs Luke that she overheard Lorenzo and Skye talking about their engagement. Tracy realizes this will definitely set Edward off and cause Skye to fall out of favor with the Quartermaines. Tracy doesn’t understand why Luke isn’t so surprised with this news. Against his better judgment, he reveals to Tracy that he’s known for a while now that they’re engaged. Tracy can’t believe that Luke would keep this secret from her. He apologizes and promises that the secrets are all out between them. Tracy vows that by the end of the night, the Quartermaine’s will know Skye’s little secret.

    Act III

    In the den, Alan, Noah & Kevin discuss some hospital business. Alan mentions that his search for a Chief Resident is going pretty well. Noah asks if the hospital has found someone to lead their cardiology department, to which Alan replies there is someone interested in the job. They’re scheduled for an interview on Thursday. Justus enters soon after and tells Alan that he’s moving to Boston to join the law firm of Poole, Crane and Schmidt. When asked if he’ll continue to do ELQ business, Justus re-assures Alan that he’ll stay on as council for ELQ, but thinks that moving to Boston would definitely further his career.

    Jason is surprised that Carly is acting civil towards Elizabeth. Carly says that all she wants is Jason to be happy, but thinks that going after Liz is a bad idea. Lucky comes up soon after and demands to know why Jason and Liz showed up. Jason snarks that he’s a Quartermaine, the real question is why Lucky showed up. Lucky gets ready to snap at Jason when Nikolas arrives with baby Spencer…..and Courtney!

    While Alexis and Lulu help Nikolas get the baby situated, Courtney walks over to Carly and Sonny. Sonny looks happy see his sister and gives her a hug. Courtney tells them how her foundation is going really well in California and she’s looking forward to returning to Port Charles permanently. Carly doesn’t seem too thrilled with the prospect of that happening, especially since if Courtney returns, Nikolas’ old feelings may resurface.

    Upstairs, Skye kisses Lorenzo romantically. Lorenzo feels that Edward is staring a hole through him. Skye tries to take his mind off of her grandfather, but Lorenzo is adamant on having a good relationship with his future grandfather-in-law. Skye decides to go check on things in the kitchen so Lorenzo can talk to Edward.

    Lorenzo kindly wishes Edward a happy Thanksgiving Day. Instead of accepting his warm wishes, Edward tells him it would be an even happier Thanksgiving if Lorenzo wasn’t around. Lorenzo smiles, and then grabs Edward.

    “I don’t know what your problem is old man, but you need to learn some respect. I will not be spoken down to anymore. You had better get used to me being around. Because I’m not going anywhere.”

    Lorenzo then fixes Edward’s tie, and turns to walks away. Edward grabs Lorenzo’s arm and proceeds to give him a warning.

    “Now you listen to me you degenerate scoundrel. I may be old, but I am not above kicking your ass if need be. It is you who should learn some respect. This is my house and I will not be spoken to in such a manner. I always get what I want in the end. And what I want, is you out of my granddaughter’s life. You don’t want me for an enemy Mr. Alcazar.”

    Alice walks up and stands next to Edward.

    “Is everything alright here Mr. Q?”

    “Oh everything is fine Alice. Mr. Alcazar and I were just discussing how important it is to respect one another. Isn’t that right?”

    “Correct.”

    Act IV

    Suddenly a loud, piercing scream comes from the kitchen. Glasses and plates are heard being broken followed by a loud gobbling sound. To the surprise of Edward and the rest of the people at the Quartermaine Mansion, Cook runs from the kitchen and is being chased by a wild Turkey!

    “What in the hell is going on here,” yells Edward.

    “When you said you wanted a fresh turkey this year Mr. Q, I thought you couldn’t get any fresher than a real turkey. So I arranged for this turkey to be delivered. But I thought we had already uh…prepared it for cooking.”

    While the Quartermaines and the staff chase the wild turkey throughout the house, Lucky watches as Jason whispers something into Elizabeth’s ear. She laughs and touches his shoulder. Lucky heads towards Liz and Jason. Nikolas sees what’s coming but is unable to get to him because of the baby. Lucky taps Jason on his shoulder and punches him right in the mouth!

    Nikolas runs over to try and stop it but gets punched by Lucky too. Jason, tired of being nice to Lucky elbows him in the jaw, then punches him in the stomach. Carly runs over to pull them apart. While Monica tends to Lucky, Carly tends to Jason. Elizabeth tries to see if Jason is ok, but Carly slaps her for being the center of tension between Lucky and Jason. Liz then pushes Carly, causing her to fall on the table with cakes and pies.

    “You bitch,” says Carly. “You're gonna pay.”

    “Aww, what’s wrong Carly? I thought you liked being on your back.”

    Carly goes to charge Elizabeth but Sonny sends Max over to pick Carly up. He thanks the nearest Quartermaine near him (Monica) and promises to replace the table that Carly broke. Sonny gathers the rest of the kids and is ready to go. Bobbie and Noah leave with them.

    Smoke begins to bellow from the kitchen. Cook accidentally turned up the oven, and burned the macaroni & cheese, stuffing and ham. Monica throws a hissy fit, angry that yet again, their Thanksgiving Dinner has been ruined. Alan tries to calm her down but instead, it makes her even more upset. A drunken Kevin calls Monica, Lucy, and laughs at her being angry. Monica throws the burnt ham towards Alan and Kevin and storms away.

    Tracy just laughs at all of the dysfunction, and tells Dillon to go order some Pizza from Pizza Hut. Luke wonders why Tracy is laughing so hard. She remarks that she hasn’t had this much fun since she hired burglars to steal the turkey back in 97.

    Downstairs, Lorenzo says goodbye to Skye. He agrees to take Lainey home since it’s on his way. Kevin asks if he can ride with them as well since he’s been drinking. Meanwhile, Jason offers Elizabeth a ride home, but she says she’ll ride with Lucky. Lucky tells her to find her own way home and leaves without her. Lucas tells Liz he can ride home with her if Dillon will take them home.

    Act V

    After all the dust has settled and the smoke has cleared, the entire Quartermaine Family lies lazily in the living room. With no more guests to entertain, they all just sulk in the living room. Tracy and Luke stroll in with smiles in their faces, trying to get the family excited.

    “Oh come on. Isn’t this how our Thanksgiving’s normally end? With us eating pizza? You’d think that next year we’d just skip all the nonsense and order,” says Tracy.

    She tries to get the family to sing a round of “We Gather Together” but no one is interested. Alan says they have nothing to be thankful for today. Edward agrees and tells Tracy to sit down and shut up.

    “On the contrary daddy. You know what Alan…..we all have something to be thankful for, and to celebrate too.”

    “What are talking about now Tracy. Why don’t you just be quiet? It’s been a long day.”

    “Well Skye, I’m glad you asked. It is my honor to announce to the family, that our very own Skye is getting married!!”

    That surely wakes the rest of the Quartermaines up.

    “No she isn’t Tracy. Skye wouldn’t keep something like that from us,” Monica says.

    “I kid you not. I heard from the man she’s engaged to himself. The two of them are engaged to be married. Isn’t that right Skye?”

    Tracy gives her niece a devilish smile, knowing that she definitely caught her by surprise with this announcement. Skye glares at Tracy and Luke, then turns to the rest of her family who have a disgusted look upon their faces.

    “Yes. It’s true. Lorenzo and I are getting married.

    Elsewhere, Lucky stomps through his house in a bad mood. Damn Jason for punching him. Damn Elizabeth for comforting Jason instead of him. And damn Carly for slapping Elizabeth. No one asked her to get involved. A flash of lighting followed by the roaring thunder outside makes him a little angrier. Lighting crackles, then the lights in his apartment flash on and off. He thinks lightning struck the building. Lucky begins to doze off, but is awoken by the sound of someone knocking on the door. Lucky tells them to go away, but the knocking persists. Lucky flings open the door and is shocked by what he sees. Standing there speechless, Lucky stares at someone who is supposed to be dead. Before his eyes, drenched in rain and tattered clothes is Sam!!! She calls out his name, and then passes out in his arms as GH comes to an end.

    On the next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Skye gets the cold shoulder from her family during breakfast
    - Lucky is surprised when Sam doesn’t remember how she got to his house
    - Diego and Lainey have another therapy session

    Opening Video

    - General Hospital begins with Helena arriving at her destination, disturbed to hear the alarms going off. Immediately she thinks the worse and grabs one of the guards as he’s running by.

    “What is going on here?” she says with a strong tone.

    “The prisoner has escaped. We have a team looking to recover the prisoner now.”

    “Escaped? Escaped?! How in the hell did….you let her escape? Do you know that this now changes EVERYTHING!!!?”

    “Mrs. Cassadine, we are sorry this happened but-”

    “But what? You insolent fool! I have spent too much time crafting this for my plan to come undone now due to the incompetence of your men. I should have you….”

    Helena’s sentence trails off as she begins to think differently about the situation. Instead of having the man killed as she usually would, she pats him in his shoulder and tells him not to worry. She orders the guard to call off the search since she knows exactly where the prisoner will have gone.

    - At General Hospital, Alan is finishing up some charts when he sees Kevin at the nurses’ station. Walking in Kevin's direction, Alan asks him if he's able to come to the mansion to join the family for Thanksgiving dinner. Kevin, knowing that by coming to the mansion, would only make things uneasy for Monica, tries to make up an excuse as to why he won't be able to attend. Alan, however, insists that he join them for dinner. As Alan leaves, Kevin thinks about his night with Monica. He would have to do his best to keep his feelings in check, or else it will be a Thanksgiving worth forgetting.

    - Carly arrives at Bobbie’s Brownstone so they can make their way to the Quartermaines. While she’s waiting for her mother to answer the door, Carly flashes back to her conversation with Luke regarding his plan. She smiles to herself knowing that if Luke gets what he wants, she’ll get what she wants. Taking one more step to establishing herself as a business woman. The sound of the door unlocking brings her back. Instead of seeing Bobbie, she sees Noah at the door. Carly walks in smiling.

    “What are you smiling about?”

    “Awww, you didn’t? You did didn’t you? Just to let you know, I’m not calling you daddy,” muses Carly.

    “You’re a funny girl you know that," says Noah sarcastically. "Even though a gentleman never tells, we didn’t. There was an….an incident during our dinner thanks to the arrival of your brother that caused Bobbie to blow up.”

    Noah then proceeds to fill Carly in regarding what happened. Carly is disappointed in her mother for carrying on this way, but was glad that Noah was there to be her shoulder to cry on. Bobbie comes downstairs shortly after ready to go. Carly prays that everything goes well during their dinner. She’d hate to have to bitch somebody out on Thanksgiving.

    - At the Scorpio Household, Mac and Felicia are excited that Robin has decided to join them for Thanksgiving. Mac reveals that Robert should be arriving at the airport soon. Anna was supposed to be flying with him. Soon after, Robin gets a phone call from her mother who delivers some sad news. Unfortunately she wasn’t able to get clearance from the agency to travel to the US. However……her (Robin’s) aunt Alex, uncle Dimitri and uncle Gabe will be spending the holiday with her so she won’t be alone.
    Note: For those that don't know, Anna has a twin sister named Alex. Alex is married to Dimitri Marick (Erica Kane's ex-husband). Gabe is Gabriel, Anna and Alex's half-brother who is Robin's uncle. ^__^ (BTW, that is not my doing, it was nonsense that AMC did.)

    On The Next GH: Secrets & Lies-

    - Edward isn’t happy when he learns of some of the guests coming to dinner
    - Tracy comes into some knowledge that she plans on using to her advantage
    - An explosive situation could occur when people who aren’t getting along are on their way to the Quartermaines’, unaware that the person or people they’re having problems with are on their way too.

    Friday, November 24, 2006

    Written by: Ryan Chandler & Venus Stone (SweetNYGal33)
    Produced by: Ryan Chandler & Na’Vell J. Lee

    Opening Video

    - At the Quartermaine mansion, Edward was his usually fussy self, demanding that everything be perfect for their Thanksgiving Day feast. He, however, was not pleased to learn that not only Alcazar would be coming to the mansion to join them, but Sonny & Ric would be there as well. What on earth possessed Skye to invite Alcazar, he thought to himself. The last thing Edward wanted was some mob style shootout, especially in his damn house.

    “I have way too many things to do today than play peacemaker between Alcazar & Sonny,” Edward mutters to himself.

    Grunting in displeasure, Edward headed back into the kitchen to see why the staff hadn't gotten everything set up.

    - When Lorenzo arrives, Skye takes him to the side and informs him that Sonny & Carly will be in attendance. Lorenzo reassures Skye that Carly’s presence will not take any of his attention away from Skye. As far as Sonny goes, they’ve been pretty civil towards each other these past few months, mainly because Sonny’s “muscle” has been pre-occupied with other matters as of late. He promises he’ll be on his best behavior. Besides, he wouldn’t want to do anything that would ruin their engagement, and shooting up her grandfather’s house would do that. Skye kisses Lorenzo for being so “considerate”. Unbeknownst to the two of them, a stunned Tracy overhears Lorenzo mention their engagement.

    - In the limo on the way to the Quartermaines’, Carly informs Sonny of Alcazar’s presence. Carly tells Sonny not to embarrass her or he’ll have hell to pay. Carly and Sonny get into a playful argument. Bobbie can’t help but see how the two of them argue like they’re still married. Bobbie apologizes to Noah for her actions the night before and promises she’ll try to handle things differently from now on. The fact Lucas won’t be there for the dinner tonight helps things too. Noah asks where he’ll be, and Bobbie tells him he’s spending the holiday with Lesley Webber.

    - Lulu hands Lucas her phone as they’re leaving the Harbor View Towers. Lucas tells her grandmother that though he’s thankful for being invited, that he’ll be spending Thanksgiving with Lulu at the Quartermaines’. Lucas thanks Lulu and Dillon for inviting him once again, mentioning that it was Brandon who encouraged taking Lesley’s offer.

    - Jason paces back and forth in his living room when Elizabeth comes downstairs. Jason can't believe his eyes. Elizabeth looks absolutely stunning.

    "You look beautiful, Elizabeth," Jason said, trying to catch his breath.

    "Jason, I don't know if this is such a good idea. Monica invited you to the mansion for dinner, not me. I just don't think I should go."

    “Didn’t you also receive an invitation?”

    “Yeah, but it was for Lucky and me. I know he’s taking Nikolas with him and I wouldn’t feel comfortable showing up, especially since he and I have been having problems recently.”

    Taking Elizabeth's hand, Jason pulls her next to him on the couch. "Elizabeth, you shouldn't be alone tonight.”

    “I was actually considering spending it with Gram, but she and Cameron are spending the holiday with Sarah so…..”

    “To be honest, you coming with me to the Quartermaines’ is going to make me feel a lot better. You know how uncomfortable I get around them, but with you there I think it’ll be a bit more tolerable."

    Elizabeth smiles sympathetically, and then agrees to accompany Jason to the Quartermaine Mansion. She then grabs her purse, he grabs his keys, and they make their way to the garage to leave.

    -Lucky approaches the Quartermaine Mansion, straightening his tie. He receives a phone call from Nikolas who’s on his way back from the airport. He hangs up in frustration. His brother is taking too damn long to get here. In reality, Lucky was just in a bad mood in general. He was really not interested in pretending to have a good time with a bunch of people he doesn’t really care for, but they are his family, even if they are just in-laws. If it wasn't for Luke insisting he join him, he would have been sulking at home about Elizabeth more than likely. Lucky prepares to ring the doorbell. Down at the gates, the cars of the rest of the guests’ park in the driveway.

    - Inside, Monica learns that Alan invited Kevin to attend Thanksgiving Dinner. The camera cuts to the Scorpios watching the pre-game show for tonight’s football game. Then the camera cuts back to Lucky. He rings the doorbell. After a few seconds, Alice lets him in. Taking a deep breath, he walks into the mansion smiling at the Quartermaines. Lucky begins to think this night won’t be so bad; at least he doesn’t have to see Elizabeth.

    On the next GH: Secret & Lies-
    It just wouldn’t be a Quartermaine Thanksgiving without some drama….

    - Lucky comes face-to-face with Elizabeth and Jason
    - Tracy informs Luke of what she overheard, and isn’t happy when she learns he knew
    - Kevin shows up at the Quartermaine Mansion, much to Monica’s dislike
    - Edward threatens Lorenzo
