Endgame- Episode 55 Thursday, June 21, 2007 <HR> AJ is presenting a proposal about acquiring a new company in front of some key ELQ executives and Tracy. The meeting has been going on for almost an hour when AJ wrapped it up. The different executives asked a couple of questions when Tracy leaned back in her chair and twirled her Mont Blanc pen. Then she spoke, “AJ, I have looked over all the figures on this acquisition and I don’t see this being a money maker for ELQ. We would have to pour so much money into this company before we could even dream of a profit.” “So what are you saying Tracy?” AJ said brusquely. “I am saying I don’t think this is a good company to acquire and as CEO I am saying that we are not going ahead with this project.” Tracy said with finality in her voice. “Go back to the drawing board AJ and find a better company….one that's actually worth shelling out millions of dollars for.” AJ bristles at her tone. “Tracy, I put a lot of time into researching this company. It is ripe for a takeover. Can’t you see that?” He went on to again list the benefits of ELQ taking over this company. Tracy spoke slowly and deliberately, “What didn’t you understand AJ? I told you, go back and find a better company. If you are not up to it, anyone in this room would jump at the chance to take on this project.” “Tracy, I can’t believe you will not see the benefits of this company! It fits into the ELQ vision of moving forward.” AJ half shouted, his face turning red. “If Grandfather was CEO, he would see that.” Tracy threw her pen down and stood up. Fire was shooting out of her eyes as she quietly ordered everyone but AJ out of the room. Once the door closed she said, “I am in charge here, not you and not my father. I will not have you questioning my authority in front of anyone. Try that again and I'll fire your ass. Do we understand each other?” AJ remained quiet. “Do we understand each other?” Tracy shouted. AJ glared at Tracy and spit out a yes. She then ordered him out of the office. He made sure he slammed the door on his way out. Afterwards, Tracy slumped down in her seat and sighed. <HR> Carly breezed her way past Alice and into the Quartermaine living room. She needed to talk to Luke about her mother’s surprise marriage to Noah. She found Luke leaning back in Alan’s chair, a bourbon in his hand and a smile on his face. Carly marched in and plopped herself down on the couch. She stared at Luke for a few minutes before asking suddenly, "what do you think of Bobbie and Noah getting married?” “Well hello to you too Caroline. Yes, your Uncle Luke is just fine.” He raised his glass to her. “How do you feel about Barbara Jean getting married?” Carly cocked her head and threw her blonde mane of hair over her shoulder, “Didn't I just ask you that? Ugh, I don’t understand why they rushed into it so fast. I also don’t understand why they ran off to Vegas. I mean, you and I weren’t invited, or Lucas and Patrick. What gives?” “I don’t know why they rushed into it Caroline. But if Barbara Jean is happy then so am I. You should be happy for her too.” Luke counseled. Carly sighed, “I am Luke. I just,” Carly paused and looked away. “Lucas is really upset. I can’t get through to him. And something just doesn’t feel right.” Carly confessed. “He is going to have to accept this. Barbara Jean is happy and it looks like she hasn’t been drinking for a while. At least that I know of.” Luke said. “I don’t know why they rushed into this, maybe they had some sort of epiphany about life and such.” Luke stood up. “You are reading too much into this Caroline. Let it go.” Luke warned. Carly sat there contemplating what Luke said. She would find the underlying cause of this. She most definitely would, for Lucas’ sake. <HR> Anna walks into her office to find Ric and Alexis are already seated. Anna reaches into her file cabinet and slams the file onto her desk. Behind her is a large white wipe board with Sonny and Lorenzo’s pictures taped to them and a list of their alleged crimes and rumored associates. Without addressing them she asks, “Do you know what I have against these two? Nothing. That is what I have. When are you two going to do your jobs and get me some evidence to bring these two men down!” Alexis and Ric exchanged glances. “I gave you information Commissioner…” Alexis started to say. Anna scoffed. “We both know that none of that was true. I need evidence! I don’t care that Sonny Corinthos is the father of your child Alexis or your brother Ric. These two men are the reason that there is so much crime in Port Charles and they need to be stopped!” Ric and Alexis sat there, properly chastened. “With all due respect Commissioner, we have tried to get as much evidence on both Sonny and Alcazar but nothing we get will stick.” Ric stated. “Everything is circumstantial.” Anna cocked an eyebrow, “Then I suggest you try harder. I don’t care what you have to do. I know you will find a way. I want these two locked up and I want it done yesterday.” Anna looked down at her desk as a deafening silence descended. Anna went on to state how she wanted daily reports on everyone listed on the white board behind her. Money was not an option in bringing down Sonny and Alcazar. “Get it done.” Anna stated, dismissing Ric and Alexis. <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Sonny gets a visit from Mac & Lucky courtesy of Anna Devane -Dillon & Maxie feel left out when Lulu & Dillon shut them out -Lorenzo meets with the 5 families

Keep up the good work Matt. I'm gonna try to catch up this weekend on everything so far.

Lol, that's part of the fun Venus You gotta try to figure it out. I will say this, I've kept this story on the mid-burner for a while, but it's about to become a major story. As the weeks go by, Sam's motivations and the reasons for doing what she is doing (or isn't doing) will be explained.

Endgame- Episode 54 Wednesday, June 20, 2007 <HR> Lucy is nervously standing outside Kevin’s office at General Hospital. She had decided to make a last ditch effort on trying to get Kevin back. More than anything, she wanted to them to return to the way they were before….before all of their troubles began. She loves Kevin, regardless of the mistakes he's made, including engaging in an affair with the very much married Monica. She knocked on his door. “Come in.” Kevin called out. Lucy opened the door and said hello. Sitting behind his desk, Kevin sighed and asked Lucy want she wanted. He really didn’t want to deal with Lucy right now. Lucy sat down and cleared her throat. “I wanted to talk to you Kevin, about us, about everything that has happened.” She started to say as Kevin opened his mouth to interrupt her. “No, no, no. Kevin, let me speak. I know I should have called first but I couldn’t help it. I had to see you and I was afraid you would tell me not to come. I wanted to tell you that I really think this time we can work on our problems. Whatever it takes Doc, I will do.” “Lucy….” “Let me speak Kevin.” Lucy spoke faster, tears glazing in her big brown eyes. “We have gone through so much together and we know we can get it back. Remember all the good times we had at the lighthouse. Even the sad times, like when Stone died and you were there for me. I want to be your wife again. I let my feelings for Ian get in the way of our marriage. You were a different person. Things like that happen, but instead of wanting to work things out with you, I gave up on us. For that I'm sorry. I want you back Kevin, I want my Doc back.” Lucy pleaded with him. <HR> Sonny was working in his office when Milo brings Ric into his office. Sonny goes to get up, but Ric puts his hand up. “We have to talk. Now I know you will and Lorenzo have your problems with each other, rightfully so, especially with what he did to Courtney….but . You need to put an end to it and do it now.” Ric spoke without preamble. <HR> Kevin sighed deeply; he didn’t want to hurt Lucy anymore than she already was. “Lucy,” He started to speak slowly. “It’s too little, too late. We were well past the point where counseling would have solved our problems. You gave up on us and I moved on. I’m sorry, but it’s final.” “You moved on with a married woman Kevin! Monica Quartermaine who has had more affairs than…" “Alan?” Kevin shot back. “You don’t know what Monica and I have.” “Kevin, she is married to a wonderful man. Whatever happened to the sanctity of marriage?” Lucy asked, trying another tactic. Not wanting to hear about the virtues of Alan Quartermaine, Kevin shouted back. “I think you should go now Lucy. This is a futile discussion. I'm in love with Monica. You need to accept the fact that you and I are never going to get back together. We are through Lucy.” <HR> Sonny leaned back in his chair and grimaced. He was not in the mood to talk to his brother. Yesterday's fuzzy feelings are all gone now. It's time to get back to reality. “Ric, I don’t know what you are talking about. I am not in any sort of war with Alcazar. But if I was….why is it any of your concern?” “Look , you need to know that Commissioner Devane is out to bring you both down. I don’t know exactly what she has, but maybe she can prove that she can do what Mac couldn’t. She is going after both you and Lorenzo with everything she has.” Ric said. <HR> Lucy gasped, “You love her? You <b>love</b> her?” Lucy holds back her tears as the anger begins to build inside of her. "You may love her, but she certainly doesn't love you. No matter who has come between them in the past, they ALWAYS get back together. They're fated. It's written in the stars. You can trick yourself into believing that you and Monica have this 'connection' but in reality you're nothing but a distraction for her." Lucy grabs her pocketbook and prepares to storm out of the office. "I hope that you know that when your relationship ends, and trust me, it will end….you may not have someone waiting for you." Lucy gives Kevin one last gaze before leaving his office very upset. Kevin sighs, then begins to envision his future with Monica. <HR> “Now why would I believe you Ric? I mean I know things have been civil between you and I, but I don't understand where this sudden concern is coming from.” Ric paused, “For once Sonny, this is the time to believe me. I am telling you the truth. I suggest you heed my warning.” Sonny rubbed the back of his neck, “You, uh, have to forgive my skepticism here Ric but why are you doing this?” Sonny heard Ric sigh over the line, “I don't know Sonny. Maybe it's because I don’t want to see innocent lives lost. Maybe it's because I don't want to see you in jail. Maybe it's because I don't want to have to explain to your daughter, my stepdaughter why her father choose to go to jail over seeing her graduate, get married and have children. Because that is what will happen Sonny. You kill Alcazar and you WILL go to jail for a very, very long time. So whatever you have planned for Lorenzo, just please, can you end it? Don’t do it for me, think of your kids Sonny.” Sonny had heard enough. “I’ll keep it in mind.” He asks Ric to leave. After Ric steps outside, he receives a phone call from Anna, ordering him to meet her in her office in an hour. <HR> Bobbie and Noah had called their entire family to meet them at Kelly’s. Bobbie was happier than she had been in a long time, so filled with love for the man standing next to her. Hand in hand, they walked into Kelly’s. Carly had pulled her chair close to Lucas. It had been very hard for her to get him to come out today. He was still very depressed over losing Brandon. She was feeling very protective of Lucas and very suspicious of her mother. At least one bright spot for the day is that Carly confirmed her brother's suspicions of her pregnancy. “Barbara Jean!” Luke was sitting on a chair with his feet propped up on a table, arms crossed. “What in God’s name did you call of us here today for? It’s somewhat apocalyptic to have all the Spencer's together.” Bobbie smiled at everyone. “Luke, I only have good news for everyone today.” She glanced up at Noah and shared a secret smile with him. “I asked you all here to tell you something. I want you all to know that I love all of you, I hope you know that. Most of all I love my children with all my heart.” She glanced over at a curious Carly and a subdued Lucas who had yet to raise his head. <HR> At Wyndemere, Sam stares out at the water. She is flooded with jumbled memories of her time with Jason and her current life. Helena pops out from the shadows, but Sam remains cool, revealing that she was aware of Helena's presence the entire time. The two women stare each other down as Sam recounts the things Helena did to her while she was held captive. Helena taunts Sam, informing her that if it wasn't for her, she'd be dead right now. She gave Samantha a new lease on life, any happiness she experiences is a direct result of Helena's interference. Lucky arrives with gun drawn at Helena. He orders Helena to slowly back away from Sam. As she begins moving, she grabs Sam and pushes her into Lucky. With his concentration broken, Helena manages to escape unharmed. Lucky, though frustrated with himself, hugs Sam and is happy that she wasn't harmed. Sam gazes into his eyes and thanks him for saving her. The chemistry between them is undeniable and after months of resisting, finally kiss each other. He takes her by the hand and leads her back to the house. Sam turns around looking towards the woods and smirks. <HR> Back at Kelly's, the Spencer's anxiously await Bobbie's announcement. “Go on.” Carly said suspiciously. Absentmindedly, Bobbie wiped her hair out of her eyes. Carly, who was watching her like a hawk jumped to her feet so fast that her chair fell over. “What the hell is on your hand?” Noah spoke softly. “Remember when your mother said we were going to Vegas for vacation….well we got married while we were there! We hope you will be happy for us.” “You what?” Carly shouted as Lucas bolted for the door leaving a dismayed Bobbie staring after him. <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Carly's suspicions of Noah & Bobbie's marriage is shrugged off by Luke -AJ and Tracy clash over ELQ -Anna comes down hard on Ric and Alexis

I love your work V, but I really, really, REALLY hate Lily. Lol, she can't accept responsibility for the things that she does. I hate her, lol. Gloria can die too. I love the Michael/Lauren story

Endgame- Episode 49 - 53 Monday, June 18, 2007 Special Father's Day Episode ***Disclaimer: This is an EXTREMELY long episode, but very important to future storylines. Please read carefully.*** <object width="225" height="150"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIbZOeaokeU"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIbZOeaokeU"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIbZOeaokeU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="225" height="150"></embed></object> Port Charles begins with Sonny walking downstairs just in time to see Carly and the boys settling in downstairs. They decided to have a nice formal dinner this time as a way to shaking things up. Michael's attitude is still a problem, but he's more than willing to try and make Sonny's special a nice one. Carly asks if Kristina will be joining them for dinner, Sonny explains that she's supposed to be on the way. <HR> Alexis was picking up a few of Molly’s toys when Kristina raced from the hallway and towards the door. Alexis stopped her before she got too far. “Where are you going young lady?” Alexis asked as Kristina stopped and closed the door she just opened. “I’m going to see Dad. Milo is coming to pick me up.” The young teenager replied as she stepped closer to her mother. “No, you’re not. You’re going to spend the day with the family. It’s Father’s Day.” “Yes I know I was planning on spending it with Dad.” Kristina whined. “Well what about Ric? Maybe it would be nice to appreciate him as your stepfather than just your Uncle Ric.” “Yeah, maybe. But Dad’s expecting me.” “Would it hurt you to spend some time with your family and then spend a few hours with your father?” Kristina sulked. “I suppose I could do that. If you really want me too?” Just as she agreed to stay, Ric walked through the front door of the lakeside cabin. He came up to Kristina, gave her a hug hello, then went to Alexis, and greeted her with a quick kiss. “Where are you off too? I saw Milo was parked outside.” Ric asked as Kristina was hesitant to tell him she had plans to go see her father. “I was going to see Dad, but Mom convinced me to stay and spend some time with you first, Uncle Ric.” Ric went to her and gave her another hug. “I appreciate that, Kristina. I really do. What happened to Daddy Ric? I’m Uncle Ric now?” he questioned. Kristina hesitated; she didn’t want to hurt Ric’s feelings, so she chose her words before telling him why she came to call him Uncle Ric and not Daddy. “That was a long time ago. I guess I’m just growing up.” “It’s okay. Daddy, Uncle, doesn’t matter. I will always be there for you like a father should, and that’s what matters the most.” The moment was broken when Molly’s cries could be heard from the back bedroom. “I’ll go get her.” Alexis said and she left Kristina and Ric alone together to talk. Kristina released from Ric’s embrace. “I guess I should go and tell Milo to pick me up later today.” She raced outside as Alexis emerged from the hallway with Molly in her arms. The young child still wiping sleep from her eyes as Ric reached for her. <HR> Monica was standing at the French Doors looking out when Alan came up behind her wanting to know what was wrong. She turned around and smiled wistfully, surveying everyone in the room. She watched as Tracy, Ned, AJ and Edward bickered about amongst themselves about ELQ business. The Spencer’s were in one corner, Luke spinning stories and Alice gazing adoringly at him. Noah and Bobbie were quietly holding hands and talking with Robin and Patrick. Monica looked quickly into Alan’s eyes and replied that nothing was wrong, she was happy that everyone was here. Monica was torn between wanting to celebrate this day with her husband, but also ready for this entire charade to just be over. She secretly hopes Jason will drop by, but doesn't really think he will. The doorbell rang and Alice went to get it. “This better not be strippers,” commented Edward to Luke. Alan hushed Edward and everyone turned, anxiously awaiting the visitors. They were shocked to see Lucky walk in with a presumed dead Sam. Everyone gasped as Lucky introduced Sam to the group. Luke stood up and took Sam’s hand. Looking questioningly at Lucky, he kissed Sam’s hand and said suspiciously, “Charmed I’m sure.” No one, except Luke, noticed that Sam’s eyes briefly narrowed. <HR> Back at Sonny's, Sonny notices that Carly seems a little distant and wonders what's wrong. The last thing Carly wants is to tell Sonny that she's pregnant, especially since the person who should know first, isn't aware yet. She comes up with an excuse, going into how re-launching Deception is a bit more complicated than she originally thought. Sonny can agree with her on that. Corinthos-Morgan has been taking more steps towards legitimacy, which is just as tough. Michael chases Morgan upstairs (Morgan stole Michael's Sony PSP). The loving parents laugh. Sonny caresses Carly's hand and thanks her for allowing the kids to spend the day with him. Carly admits it's nice to spend time as a family again. Jason enters soon after interrupting the moment between Sonny & Carly. Carly notices the bruise on Jason's face and asks what's wrong, Jason responds what isn't. <HR> Back at the Lake house, Alexis speaks with Ric. “Don’t take Kristina’s calling you Uncle too hard. She’s young and things may change.” Alexis tried to re-assure Ric. “It’s okay. Sonny is her father and she knows he will always be her father. I don’t want to give her the impression that I am trying to replace Sonny in her life. She can have both of us in her life and love us equally.” Kristina comes back into the house and joined the family on the couch. “So, what are we going to do now? I told Milo to pick me up this afternoon around 4pm. So we have all day to spend together.” Kristina smiled. Ric suggested they go swimming in the lake and maybe BBQ outside to celebrate. The family agreed to the plans, so Alexis and the girls went to change clothes to go swimming, while Ric went into the kitchen to get the food they’d be cooking on the grill. <HR> Jason admits that he didn't come for dinner; he came by to pick up Michael and bring him to the Quartermaines. Sonny tenses up, but Carly tells him to calm down. Carly promised Monica that she'd allow Michael to spend time with the Q's, and she intends on keeping that promise. Jason calls Michael down, who had already changed his clothes. Carly kisses the boys goodbye, she tells them that she has a few errands to run and will see them at home. She wishes Sonny a happy Father's Day yet again before heading out. <HR> Kristina came running from the hallway and raced out the door towards the lake, and Alexis followed with Molly in one arm and Molly’s arm floaters in the other. Ric came from the kitchen with his hands full and walked ahead of her to sit the stuff down so he could help her with Molly. The family enjoyed the together time they had before Kristina was carried away to visit with Sonny. Just as they were sitting down to their meal, the phone rang. Alexis got up from her seat to answer it. “Alexis Davis.” She answered. “Alexis, it’s Sonny." "Happy Father's Day Sonny." "Thank you Alexis. I was calling to find out when Kristina would like to get picked up. We’re about ready to sit down to dinner.” “So are we. She told Milo she'd be ready around 4. Is that good?.” “Okay, I’ll send Milo for her.” “Ok….and Sonny," Alexis begins. "Thank you for understanding how important it us that Kristina spends time with Ric today. It means a lot to the family to know that she is here with us.” “No need to thank me, Alexis. Kristina was the one who wanted to change the plans. She really wanted to spend some time with Ric. She’s the one you should be thanking, Alexis.” Alexis hung up the phone with Sonny and went back to the table with the family. The sound of laughter could be heard from the deck of the lake house as it echoed through the trees. This was the first time in a long time that the family enjoyed spending the day together. It was without interruption, and Kristina and Ric’s relationship was stronger because of it. <HR> An uncomfortable silence descended as Lucky and Sam walked further into the room and sat down. “Well, I know I need a drink. Anyone?” Tracy stood up. “Well, except you AJ.” Tracy said pointedly as she went to the bar and fixed herself a gin and tonic. Tracy tossed back the drink and poured herself another. “Tracy, do shut up. It is Father’s Day and I want to spend it with my son. Is that too much to ask? Can you keep your mouth closed today as a gift for our Father?” Alan asked, walking up next to her. He turned and made Monica a drink and took bottled water for himself. Edward waved his hands, “Yes Tracy, please. I just want peace and quiet today. It’s going to be hard enough without Jason here, so stop trying to create trouble.” Sam began shifting uncomfortably. Lucky attentively asked Sam if she was all right. She responded that she was. She said it was hard because she felt everyone was looking at her and she didn’t know why. Lucky hugs her and tells her not to worry about it. At that moment, Jason walked into the mansion and and her eyes locked with his shortly before she turned away. Everyone in the room looked from Jason to Sam except for AJ, who went to hug Michael and asked Michael how he was doing. Michael's attitude still doesn't improve, but he sees that AJ is trying to make an effort, so why be difficult. Jason looked at Lucky sitting closely to Sam and glared stonily at him. “What the hell is he doing here?” Jason asked his parents. Anger poured out of every cell of his body. He explained that he couldn’t be here with Lucky. “It’s either him or me.” Trying to be the peacekeeper, Alan stepped forward, “Jason, please stay. We can all get along.” Monica laid her hand on Jason’s arm and pleaded with him to stay, for the family’s sake. They wanted him to stay. Lucky stared back at Jason and refused to move away from Sam. Jason turns to Alan and with a low tone wishes him a happy Father's Day. With a glare at everyone in the room, Jason spun on his heels and stormed out. The front door slammed so hard that a painting fell off the wall, knocking a vase onto the ground. As everyone raced into the foyer, no one noticed the devious smile forming on Sam’s lips. <HR> At Wyndemere, Nikolas is sitting in the living room with little Spencer. This is Spencer's first father's day with him and he couldn't be any more happy. Unbeknownst to Nikolas, Carly has just arrived at the castle with a gift for him. She makes her way to the living room, but stops when she hears him speaking to Spencer. Nikolas reflects on the time he's spent with his son, including the time he didn't get to spend with him because of Courtney. Nikolas promises to be the best father he can be, and will always put his son first. He takes another picture of himself and Spencer and shows his small son. "See Spencer, that's you and daddy. We'll always be together, no matter what. I'll protect you from all that mean you harm. You're my son and I love you." Nikolas walks over near the mantle and picks up a picture of Laura. "If only my mother could see us together. It would make her day. I can't wait for her to actually meet you….one day." Nikolas goes to lay Spencer down in the playpen as Carly finally walks into the room, wiping her eyes. <HR> After dinner, Kristina showered and changed her clothes and waited for Milo. As the limo pulled up outside the lake house, she quickly ran to Ric and embraced him. “Happy Father’s Day.” Kristina said. “Thank you sweetheart. Now you go off and have fun with your Dad.” Ric replied as Kristina released the hug and smiled at him. Kristina raced off towards the door, but turned around before leaving. “I love you, Daddy Ric.” Alexis and Molly joined him as they watched Kristina climb in the back seat of the limo. Milo giving them a nod of re-assurance as the back window slid down and Kristina waved goodbye. “We’re going to be just fine, Alexis ," Ric says as he kisses his wife tenderly. "Just fine.” <HR> Sonny tries to call Alexis when Kristina arrives, but Ric answers instead. "Hello Ric. I'm uh…Kristina made it safely. Tell Alexis for me." Kristina gives Sonny a hug before running out to find Morgan. "No problem," Ric says as the camera pulls up on him. Ric feels that Sonny is about to hang up the phone, so he blurts out, "hey Sonny." "Yeah?" "Happy Father's Day….." Sonny takes a look around and smiles at his children. He turns back to the phone and says, "Happy Father's Day to you too….little brother." Sonny then hangs up the phone and goes out onto the deck with his children. The camera cuts to Ric as he jokingly laughs and quite pleased at the response he got from Sonny. <HR> "Carly," he says. "What are you doing here?" Nikolas is happy she's there, but it's kind of surprising seeing as how she hasn't spoken to him since she learned that he was keeping Sam alive. "I don't mean to sound—" "I know," she interrupts. "I haven't been a real people person as of late and I'm sorry." She can't help by cry. He's just so damn good with Spencer. He's a wonderful father. "I umm…I thought of you today and it really put some things into perspective for me." Carly continues talking and then stops, realizing that she's been rambling for about 5 minutes. "I came here to give your gift…for Father's Day." She hands Nikolas a large rectangular box with orange wrapping paper. Nikolas slowly begins to open the package. He takes off the lid and is very surprised by what he finds inside. "What's this," Nikolas asks holding up what's inside the box. Carly is unable to hold back her emotions any longer. Tossing the hair from her eyes, she says "It's our child. Happy Father's Day Dad." Nikolas looks in his hand and closely examines the ultrasound. At a loss for words, he says "This is…it's our….," his voice trails off. He looks at Carly for approval and she nods her head, tears flowing down her face. Nikolas runs over to her and picks her up while spinning around. He kisses her passionately before bringing her over to the sofa. Nikolas picks up Spencer and walks over, showing him the gift. "Look Spencer," he says, "you're gonna be a big brother!" Port Charles closes with Nikolas and Carly kissing while holding Spencer. On the next Port Charles: Endgame - Ric asks Sonny to end his war with Lorenzo - Lucy is hurt when Kevin rejects her - Bobbie and Noah spread word of their engagement - Lucky kisses Sam

Endgame- Episode 49 Saturday, June 16, 2007 Lucky stood at the counter waiting for the food he had ordered for he and Sam. As he stood waiting, Alexis approached him from behind. Mike set the paper bag on the counter and Lucky reached into his pocket to pay Mike. “Here… let me get that, Lucky.” Alexis said as she reached into her purse for $20. “No Alexis, I got it.” Lucky refusing Alexis’ money, he laid a 20-dollar bill on the counter for Mike. Without another word, Lucky started to walk towards the door to leave the diner. Alexis was quick to jump him about Sam before he walked out the door. “How’s Sam?” she asked as Lucky stopped in his tracks. “Sam’s fine … and she still doesn’t want to see you, Alexis. I’m sorry.” “I just want you to know that I don’t lay blame on you, Lucky. You did what you had to do and I understand that. I just want …” “I know, you just want to have Sam back in your life. I’m sorry Alexis, I really am, but Sam isn’t ready to see you or anyone else. She doesn’t know you and she may never be ready to be the person you want her to be.” Lucky turned and opened the door to leave but he was stopped once again, this time by Jason. <HR> At the MetroCourt, Jax reaches out his hand, and Anna willingly shakes it. He then decides to kiss her hand just as Lorenzo steps off the elevator. Alcazar notices the two of them talking, and is instantly annoyed that she appears to be into the hunky Aussie. He walks within earshot of their conversation by strolling towards the bar. Jax and Anna continue flirting, much to the disdain of Lorenzo. Jax hands Anna one of his business cards and invites her to call him anytime she pleases. Anna admits that she doubts she will, but Jax is able to call her anytime. Jax goes in for a kiss, but Anna turns her face, making sure her cheek is the one kissed, not her lips. After Jax gets on the elevator, Lorenzo goes over to the table and suggests Anna not get involved with him. Anna puts Alkie in his place, informing him that what she does, and who she chooses to do it with is no one's business but her own. <HR> “Let me guess, you’re heading back to Wyndemere with Sam?” Jason questioned Lucky seeing he was carrying the paper bag in his hand. “Wow did you come up with that all by yourself, Jason? Alexis! Give this man a cookie!” Lucky snipped at Jason. “Look I have someplace to be …,” he added as he took a step towards the door. “You’re not leaving, Lucky. I want some answers from you about Sam and I want them now!” Jason demanded, stopping Lucky with his hand. Alexis stepped in and tried to deter Jason from Lucky, so he could leave. “Jason, let this go, please. This isn’t doing any one any good. This is not the time or the place to do this. We can't be mad with Lucky for Sam not having her memory.” “I am so tired of hearing that Alexis! If it wasn’t for Lucky & Nikolas, Sam would have been home with us months ago!” “Look, genius, if it wasn’t for me, we all wouldn’t have Sam. She showed up on my doorstep broken. I nursed her back to health. If it wasn't for me, she’d be dead … for real. So if you want Sam to have any type of relationship with you or Alexis, you’ll back off!” “Why don’t you back off, Lucky?” Jason said as he pushed Lucky against his chest hard enough Lucky stumbled back, but not off his feet. “Oh you’re asking for it, Jason!” “Yeah, instead of talking why don’t you just bring it, Lucky!” Jason pulls his arm back, decking Lucky in the jaw with a right hook, knocking Lucky off balance and into one of the tables. Lucky staggered as he composed himself and rubbed his hand against his jaw. “You son of a bitch!” Lucky screams just as Mike came out from the kitchen to see what was going on. Jason is taken by surprise when Lucky spears him to the ground and begins punching him. Jason pushes Lucky off, knocking him into the table again. Lucky charges after Jason again, picking him up and slamming him into one of the tables. “Hey! Hey! Lucky, Jason … separate corners!” Mike yelled at them as he came up on them. Alexis steps in and pulls Jason away, while Mike dealt with Lucky. “Stay out of this Mike, if the big man wants a piece of me, I’ll be more than happy to oblige!” Lucky shouted at Jason as Alexis tried to calm him down. “Not in the diner! If you guys want to fight it out, take it outside!” “Both of you...CALM THE HELL DOWN!!! I think this has gotten a little out of control, don’t you?” Alexis said hoping to calm the situation down a notch or two. <HR> At GH, David takes advantage of bumping into Lucy, by using this time to tell her what he's learned about Serena. According Aiden, Serena took off for LA, before venturing up to Toronto, then heading to Manhattan. She hasn't been seen since going to Manhattan, but someone said that she recently purchased a ticket to Port Charles, so she should be here within a day or two. Lucy cannot contain her excitement (and frustration) but hugs David anyway. David smiles internally, happy that he was able to help Lucy. He then asks if Lucy has any free time, he'd love to take her to dinner at the PC Athletic Club. She graciously turns him down, but thanks him for everything that he's done. As she's walking away, David figures it couldn't have hurt to ask. <HR> Back at Kelly's, Mike straightened up the tables and chairs as Jason and Alexis took a seat at a table together. “I don’t know what to do Alexis, I really don’t.” “We have to be patient Jason, Sam will come around.” “Certainly not with Lucky feeding her mind with God knows what! How do I know he’s not filling her head with all kinds of nonsense about me … about you, Alexis?” “Lucky is not that kind of person Jason. But even if he was, we have to have hope that Sam will realize that we matter to her. She’ll come around, Jason, eventually.” Alexis sighs as Jason walks out of the diner. On the next Port Charles: Endgame - Ric asks Sonny to end his war with Lorenzo - Lucy is hurt when Kevin rejects her - Bobbie and Noah spread word of their engagement - Lucky kisses Sam

Endgame- Episode 48 Friday, June 15, 2007 At the MetroCourt, Anna is sitting at a table drinking her coffee, going over her case file notes and reading the latest article in the Port Charles Gazette about Lorenzo. She looks up and spots a gentleman making his way in and towards the counter. She catches his eye, and he gives her back a sweet grin. As soon as he gets his order, he goes over to Anna's table and introduces himself. Man: Excuse me. I don't mean to be presumptuous….I couldn't help but notice that you were eyeing me when I walked in. Anna: I believe you were eying me first, but you're excused. It's not every day that I get to see someone of your...caliber...in this town. Tell me, do you flaunt your charm on an every day basis? Man: Should I take that as a compliment? Anna: You can take it any way you'd like. The name's Anna…Anna Devane. Man: Ah, yes, I read about you. "I'm declaring war on organized crime in Port Charles" is what you said. That's quite a statement don't you think. Anna: I needed to make an impact. Man: Oh trust me, I think you have. You've got some really big shoes to fill you know, taking over the important position of Commissioner from Mac Scorpio. Anna: Shoes that I filled well before Mac even stepped foot in Port Charles. You're a real winner here are't you? Classy and intelligent, another trait that you don't find too much here. Man: Now, I know that was complimentary. Anna: Now, you are just being smug. Even though, I must admit, it's kinda cute. What'd you say your name was again? Man: (laughs) I didn't. My name is Jasper Jacks. "Jax" for short. <HR> Elizabeth slowly makes her way through the corridor at Wyndemere. Reality is beginning to sink in for her. Her marriage really is over and it's time that she move on…but there's something she has to do first. She enters the den at Wyndemere and is surprised to find Sam looking at pictures. "Well…it looks like the rumors are true," sneers Elizabeth. "I guess you are alive. That's wonderful." Elizabeth knows that if Sam were out of the way, she could have had Jason a long time ago, but there's this stupid connection that he has with her, that lasted even through death, or alleged death in this case. Sam has a sudden vivid flashback to that painful night last August when she was trapped in the fire. "You…" she starts off angrily before changing her tune."Do I know you?" Elizabeth crosses her arms and stares at the woman now involved with her husband…soon to be ex-husband. "I'm Elizabeth, Lucky's wife and Jason's friend." Something seethes inside of Sam as she shakes the hand of Elizabeth. "Isn't Lucky divorcing you? I was under the impression that he was." "I don't really think that's any of your business," Elizabeth snaps. "Is Lucky around, I need him to sign something for me." "No he's not. If you want to wait here you can, if not….Alfred can show you out." Sam gives a snarky smile as Elizabeth decides to turn and leave. Sam asks Alfred to not disturb her because she has a headache. Sam slowly circles around the table with the pictures. "They're gone," she says turning around. Suddenly Helena steps out of the shadows. <HR> As David came off of rounds, he walked into the doctor’s lounge to grab a cup of coffee. As he poured himself a cup, his cell phone rang. He noticed the caller ID and recognized it, it was from someone who he had been familiar with in Pine Valley. He flipped open the phone and said hello. “Dr. Hayward.” David answered. “David, it’s Aiden. You asked me to contact to you if I had information on Serena.” “Since you’re calling me, I am to assume that you do?” “I do.” Aiden replied and began to tell David all he had found out about Serena’s whereabouts. Both of them knew how important this was to Lucy and wanted to all they could to help her. “Thank you Aiden. Keep me informed please. This is very important to Lucy, and … to me.” David flipped closed his cell phone as he exited the doctor’s lounge and stepped into someone’s path, bumping into them. “Hey would you watch where you are going?!” David snapped at the person he bumped into without noticing it was Lucy. “Excuse me? You should watch where you are going, Dr. Hayward!” Lucy snapped back. It was an opportunity dropped into David’s lap, him knowing about Serena’s whereabouts and Lucy desperate to locate her daughter. David’s accidental bump into Lucy could prove very beneficial for him. On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Someone isn't too pleased to see Anna with Jax -Alexis breaks up a fight between Jason & Lucky -David updates Lucy on Serena's whereabouts

Written by Fan Tastic Due to the hiring of Tishy Smith as the co-headwriter, the powers that be took unprecedented action by shelving two weeks worth of episodes and re-shooting a frontburner storyline to take place as soon as possible. "We revised our gameplan," says co-head writer and executive producer Ryan Chandler. "We felt that we let our viewers down last month and wanted to make up for it by doing something really big." 'Port Charles' is known for not going all out during typical sweeps months, rather choosing to bring their bigger guns during the months when others may be treading water. We spoke to consulting producer (and rumored future third chair on the writing team) Jennifer Snyder to get her input on this big change. "This is a story that all of us at 'Port Charles' can be proud of," Snyder says. "The work that went into creating this story has been top of the line, and I'm very pleased with the end result." "This is another GIGANTIC steps towards the emotional, character-driven stories I have been promising to deliver," Chandler said. "This will give us plenty of story play for the rest of the year and maybe into next year as well." Without further a due, we present to you the "Port Charles" promo for the month of June titled 'Quartermaine Tragedy'. Following the promo is a revised list of previews: <object width="325" height="250"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAXji8SQt_4"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAXji8SQt_4"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAXji8SQt_4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="325" height="250"></embed></object> - Monica and Alan go away for a romantic getaway - Monica reveals the truth to Alan - The Quartermaine's get terrible news about Alan - The Quartermaine Family rallies together -A tragic event brings about the return of a fan favorite - Lorenzo meets with the 5 Families - Lucy is hurt when Kevin rejects her - Anna has a new admirer - Lucky and Sam admit their true feelings for one another - Mac & Lucky attempt to intimidate Sonny - Bobbie and Noah spread word of their engagement - Ric asks Sonny to end his war with Lorenzo - Nikolas attempts to make up with Carly -Carly tells Nikolas about the baby

Endgame- Episode 47 Friday, June 1, 2007 Port Charles begins at General Hospital. Monica walks out of the Human Resources office after putting in her and Alan's requests for some vacation time. "This is it," she says to herself when alone. "I'm finally going through with it." 'It' meaning ending her marriage to Alan of course. They've been together for almost 30 years. She owes him one last night together before totally blowing apart their lives. Things have been tense between them, but even she doesn't have the heart to just leave Alan. Maybe she feels guilty… <HR> Alan is on the phone speaking to a concierge. "I want nothing but the best for my wife. This is a very special occasion for us." A special occasion indeed. This is the first time that he and Monica have gone away in years. Their marriage has been on shaky ground, but he really feels they're going to reconnect. Edward walks into the room and is thrilled to see his son excited about his trip with Monica, but he can't help but feel a little worried. Monica's a very secretive woman and he has a feeling something is going on. Edward encourages Alan to have a good time while he's gone, but to watch out for Monica. Edward can't shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen. He's tempted to fill his son in on vague conversation he overheard a few weeks ago between Monica and her mystery person. Alan tells his father that he plans on making the most of this trip. <HR> Back at the hospital, Robin changes out of her scrubs and is ready for a long nap. She reminisces of her wonderful night with Patrick and begins to feel all giddy inside. It's been a while since they've been in a happy place. As long as Sarah minds her business and stays out of theirs, they'll be just fine. She looks down at her watch and realizes she's running late for her dinner date with Patrick. She grabs her things to leave, suddenly her phone rings. "Hello?" "Robin!!!! Oh my god it's been so long," the familiar voice says. "How have you been?" "Brenda! Oh my god, it has been a while. I'm doing really good." Robin is very happy to receive a call from her best gal pal. It's been about 6 months since she's spoken to Brenda. It wasn't anything personal, they've just been missing each other. The two chit chat a bit while Robin makes her way to her car. Brenda mentions she has some vacation time coming up and wanted Robin to come with her to Australia. Robin suggests she comes to Port Charles for an overdue visit. Brenda hesitates before turning her down. Now is not the time to come back. Robin is disappointed, but respects her decision. <HR> Lorenzo walks into his mansion after a short stay in Venezuela. His bodyguards take his belongings to his room, while he heads into the living room. He makes a call to his people down on the docks to get a status update on activities since he's been gone. He orders his men to put surveillance on Anna, Jason & Sonny, expecting updates once an hour. Lorenzo takes out a bottle of whisky and pours himself a glass before walking towards the balcony. He pulls up a picture of Anna on his blackberry and stares at it. There's something about her that reminds him of someone he lost….. "Hello Lorenzo," says Skye as she gets up from the shadows. "I'm glad you decided to come home." Skye glares at Lorenzo as she walks over to him. "I guess you didn't have a phone in Venezuela." "Skye I…," Lorenzo's voice trails off. He could have called Skye, but to be quite honest, he never gave her a second thought. "I was busy. Something happened that required me to leave town for a while." "I know what happened and that's no excuse to just leave. You're a man Lorenzo, you should take whatever punishment is coming to you. You set all of this into motion." "Excuse me?" The mobster responds irritated. "<b>I</b> set this into motion? I'm sorry Skye, but I don't see how me being ambushed in my warehouse is my fault." Skye crosses her arms. "It's your fault because you are the one who started this mess with Sonny. You blew up his sister's apartment building, killing her and injuring him in the process. I warned you when we first got together that I would not tolerate your dangerous lifestyle, and you promised me that you were going legit. Obviously that was a lie, just like it was a lie that you loved me." Lorenzo takes a deep breath and steps towards Skye. "You're grasping at straws. Looking for an excuse to walk away. What's the matter Skye? Family pressure a little much for you? You knew what you were getting into the moment I asked you to marry me." "I never signed on to be an accomplice. I never signed on to come in second or third place Lorenzo. That's what happening right now," she snaps. "People are coming after you for what you've done. The police are after you. Sonny is after you. You told me you were done. But you lied to me. I watched as you spent countless hours researching Anna Devane. I watched as you checked into her background, as you play your little mind games and I refuse to stand idly by as you ruin your life." Skye then picks up the bags laying next to the sofa. "I'm leaving you…and this house. I refuse to put my life in danger by being with you. So go ahead. Keep lusting after your power and stupid territory. Keep this never ending war with Sonny going. You're destined to be alone." She takes off her ring and shoves it into Lorenzo chest. "Everyone was right about you." "Fine then. Leave!" He yells as Skye begins to storm out. "It's obvious to me that you aren't strong enough to be in my life." The door slams shut, knocking down a picture of Lorenzo and Skye. He takes out his blackberry once again, pulling up the picture of Anna. "With Skye out of the way, I have no distractions." <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Anna has a new admirer -Alexis breaks up a fight between Jason & Lucky -David gets a call from Aidan regarding Serena -Elizabeth pays a visit to Sam at Wyndemere

Endgame- Episode 44-46 Tuesday, May 29, 2007 Written by: Ryan Chandler & NaVell Lee In this special ICU episode, you will see today's events play out as to how Lucas sees them. You will see and hear his thoughts, opinions, basically how he truly feels about everyone coming to pay their respects for Brandon by Lucas' side, and his true feelings about what he really believes about how Brandon's death was entirely his fault. The thoughts of Lucas appear in italics. <HR> Port Charles begins with Lucas putting on his best suit. "So, today's the day...the day where we can finally put Brandon to rest," he says to himself. "I never thought this day would ever come. I have been putting it off week in and week out, making up phony excuses as to why I wanted to avoid the issue, but I cannot escape the truth anymore." Lucas walks over to his nightstand picks up the picture of him and Brandon from their trip to Hawaii last year. "You're gone my love. And there's no way I can ever bring you back." Lucas begins to cry as he flashes back to that fateful night where Brandon was hit by a car. "I hope that one day, Brandon, you can forgive me for the terrible mistake I made....and maybe one day, I can forgive myself." Just then, Carly enters the room. Lucas wipes the tears from his face and starts to get dressed again. Carly speaks to Lucas, but we are unable to hear her word. Lucas' inner thoughts can be heard while she's speaking to him. <i>Carly has been so supportive through this difficult time. I never knew what it was truly like having a sister to connect with. It feels good knowing I can have a family member to depend on. Heh, they may say some awful things about her, but Carly does love her family...no question about that. I was more stunned than relieved when I came out to her. She's accepted me for who I am, with no questions asked, never judging me for being the way I am. I've watched as she's gone from home wrecker to loving sister, putting my needs before her own and coming to my defense. For that I am always grateful.</i> Carly's voice begins to fade in. "You are gonna make it through this. You are gonna have a lot of friends and family to support you. <b>I</b> will support you, and I will always be there for you. You're my brother and I love you Lucas. Never forget that." Carly pats him on his back before turning back around to leave the room. She knows this will be one of the toughest days of his life. <i>It's times I feel like I am a burden to Carly, now knowing she has things to overcome on her own problems....new baby on the way (even though she hasn't confirmed it to me yet, I know these things)....Sam being alive...I just hope I can be there for her as she was with me.</i> <HR> <object width="250" height="190"><param name="movie" value=" name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="250" height="190"></embed></object> <b>****The song for the funeral is "Full of Grace" by Sarah McLachlan.**** Press play to begin the video.</b> Everyone begins making their way upon Wyndemere, where the funeral proceedings shall take place. Nikolas was kind enough to allow Lucas to hold the event there. Carly puts aside her anger issues with Nikolas long enough to have this day go on without a hitch. Carly opens the door, making the way for Maxie, Lulu, Georgie, Dillon, Luke, Tracy, Ned, Robin, Mac, Patrick, Anna, Sonny and the kids to arrive. and even Noah. They all go over to give Lucas a hug, but Dillon tends to shy away from Lucas, knowing that their tryst pushed the events in motion. Lucas unaware of the fact that Noah is there because he is also feeling guilt inside. <i>Wow, so Noah came to the funeral but my own mother didn't? I guess she doesn't care what this day means to me or the man that I love. Noah wasn't close with Brandon, but he was kind to both of us so I can understand why he's here. But Dillon? ………..I shouldn't be this way. This is a day of remembrances, but I can't help feeling angry. He says he cares about me...where was his concern for Brandon? I don't think I can ever forgive him, or myself, for what happened. But, I cannot dwell on that now. The least I can do is try to show some consideration and put my feelings aside, for Brandon's sake. No one else's.</i> As soon as everyone settled in, Carly informed the guests that it was time to go out to the memorial area. On the way out, the camera cuts to Noah, who whispers to himself, "What have I done?" All the guests put a flower overtop of the small casket containing a portion of Brandon's ashes. There, each had their own personal speech that they wanted to share with Brandon and most of all, Lucas. Carly is first up to speak. She slowly makes her way to the podium to speak. She looks over the crowd of friends and family, there to support Lucas. She slowly turns to the poster sized picture of Brandon and begins to speak. "You were the first, if not only, person, to make my brother happy. Somehow, you were able to bring what was missing from his life. Joy, contentment, happiness, the list goes on. It wasn't always smiles with the two of you. In the beginning you hated one another, but as time passed you helped Lucas accept who he is and the man he is destined to become." She stops to wipe the tears from her eyes. She casts a glance to Lucas, who appears to be in his own little world. "When Lucas found out that he lost you, he was devastated…as we all were. The world stopped, and he couldn't go forward. You were his world....you were his life. There will never be another like you Brandon. No one could ever replace you in his life. I know that you wouldn't want Lucas to be alone forever. In time the wounds will heal, but you will always hold a special place in his heart….and in ours." Inside Lucas is crying uncontrollably. Outside he feels he must be strong and not let this be about his grief. He doesn't shed a tear during Carly's speech. No emotion, just a blank stare. All he could do was sit and feel numb as everyone gave their speeches. Up next was Lulu. "When I first saw Brandon, I knew right away he would be the perfect guy for Lucas. They both had something that was undeniable, right from the start. The two may not have saw it at first, but it was there. All you two needed was some pushing. I just respected you both for going ahead, not giving a care about what the world thought, and basically just being yourselves as if nothing that anyone thought badly of you could get to you. That kind of love," Lulu begins to cry. She struggles to hold back her tears. "That kind of love is so uncommon. I advise everyone here to grab on to it and never let go once you find it!" The camera cuts to the audience. Those who came together look at their significant others and smile, grabbing each other's hands. Lulu finishes up her speech, "Once you find it don't ever let go. You were the best thing to happen to Brandon." Lulu goes back and Carly comforts her as she begins to cry. Maxie had nothing to say, as all she could think about in her head was of her own self. How she somehow pushed Dillon and Lucas together. The pain got to her so much, that all she could was walk away with tears in her eyes. Still, Lucas was not showing any emotion whatsoever. Noah walked up and apologized for not keeping him here on this earth so that he and Lucas could have more time together. In reality, this was Noah's veiled attempt of apologizing for keeping the truth hidden from Lucas about who was behind the wheel of the car. Noah touched Lucas' arm and started crying. Dillon was next, and when he went to speak, he could not get any words out, and started closing up...but he was determined to let both Lucas and Brandon know how he feels. <HR> "Brandon was probably the most intelligent and funny person that I'll ever know. He was always kind to me and I enjoyed spending time with him." Soon into his speech, Dillon begins to break down. "Oh...god.....I never wanted any of this to happen. This was never my intention. I put so many lives in jeopardy, I hurt someone who I called my best friend...and I don't think he will ever forgive me for that." Tracy stands up and tells Dillon to stop making this about him. Luke goes over and tries to bring Dillon back to his seat. As they pass Lucas, Dillon stops. "What I did...what I have done was inexcusable. I never should have betrayed your friendships. But, I screwed up! I hurt you both in the worst way possible. And now...this is my punishment! All the pain and suffering....none of this would have happened if it weren't for me!" Lucas stands up and looks Dillon right in the eyes. "Poor you. Poor you Dillon. Brandon is dead and all you can think about it how sorry you are? My forgiveness is not the one you should be asking for." Dillon turns back and looks at a cold Lucas. "I really am sorry….for everything." His sincerity was untouched. It is at this moment that Dillon truly realizes that he's lost Lucas as a friend forever. Finally it was Lucas' turn to speak. Lucas was hesitant to get up….but he felt compelled to do so. Lucas slowly walks up to the podium. The wind begins to blow heavily and the clouds begin to darken. He closes his eyes and begins to speak from the heart. He thanks everyone for coming to this service. He apologizes for not being able to speak the way he'd like to, but would like to express his feelings through a poem that he wrote for Brandon: Louder, louder The voice in my head, Whispers taunting, all the things you said, Faster the days go by, And I'm still Stuck in this moment, of wanting you here, Time in the blink of an eye, You held my hand, You held me tight, Now you're gone and I'm still crying, Shocked, Broken, I'm dying inside…. Where are you? I need you! Don't be leave me here on my own, Speak to me, be near me, I can't survive unless I know your with me, Where are you? I need you. Don't leave me here on my own Where are you? I can't survive unless you're with me. A tear slowly falls down his cheek as he inhales the fresh Spoon Island air. <HR> Carly informs everyone that they may all return to Wyndemere for the dinner honoring Brandon's memory. Lucas tells them to leave without him because he's not ready to leave. Carly and Lulu don't think it's a good idea for him to be alone, but he reassures them that he'll be fine. Everyone began leaving slowly, giving Lucas a hug and telling him it was going to be ok. As soon as everyone was gone, Lucas slowly walked to the display and put his hand over the picture. From that point on, all buried emotions come to the surface as he is unable to hold them back any longer. "I never thought that you would ever leave me. You know, we made plans to spend our lives together. We even thought of having kids one day. How did things get so messed up? We began to grow apart, but we never let that distance hurt us…until that night. That stupid night....I turned to someone else. I betrayed you, your trust, your devotion. Dillon is not entirely to blame here. I am, too. You will never know how sorry I am that I hurt you. You would never gotten hit by that car if it wasn't for me. You wouldn't have ended up hating me if it wasn't for my actions. For that, look what it cost me. I lost my friend, my confidante, my soul mate. Please, forgive me, Brandon. Please! I am so sorry! God...I am so sorry!" That moment, all emotions run high as Lucas just lies down and starts to cry heavily. All of the pain and hurt finally comes out and he cannot stop. He holds them back long enough to sing "Irish Blessing." May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face. May the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, until we meet again……..may god, hold you in the palm….of his hand…… While he is crying, a hand touches his shoulder. He looks up and sees a figure looking down at him. He continues to cry in her arms as she sits down next to him. She wipes the tears from his eyes and tells him that Brandon did forgive him. Carly tells Lucas when he's sleeping and feels something brush against his cheek, that'll be Brandon. When he walks outside and feels a chill from the wind that is Brandon. When he look to the sky to talk to Brandon, the biggest and brightest star will be him. Brandon will never leave Lucas. She's sure of it. Lucas then picks up the urn and takes off the top. With Carly's help he slowly turns it over, allowing the ashes to blow in the wind over the water. Lucas stands tall and feels the wind blow, sending a chill down his spine. Carly takes him by the hand and says "Let's go home." Port Charles ends with Carly and Lucas walking back Wyndemere. Suddenly a white light appears in the form on Brandon…as he says "I do forgive you." <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Lorenzo returns to Port Charles -Skye ends her engagement to Lorenzo -Robin receives a phone call from Brenda -Monica and Alan prepare for their vacation Credit for poem: Kelly Clarkson, "Haunted" from her upcoming album "My December"

Great fothermucking promo guys! I can't wait!

Endgame- Episode 39-43 Sunday, May 27, 2007 <HR> Ned arrives at the MetroCourt for a meeting with Jax. Over the past few weeks, Ned has shown interest in purchasing a business and though he doesn't need Jax to do so, he thinks the opportunities for the both of them could be endless, especially if they work together. Jax thinks Ned's idea is good, but wants to know exactly how this situation would work. Ned explains that the private investors that Luke sold his old club too (which was renamed Evolution) have earned their money back, and now want to sell the club. With situations changing at ELQ, Ned has been considering getting back into the music business. He could chose the talent that would perform at the club, and through the partnership with Jax, he could use the club to showcase the models and talent from the Titan/Deception partnership for cosmetics and fashion. Jax tells Ned to have his attorney bring up the papers and he'll sign them. The two shake hands and can't wait to begin their new venture. <HR> At the Quartermaine Mansion, Luke walks in to find Tracy sulking in the dark in the den. "Good evening wife. I see you're hitting the juice a little earlier than usual." Tracy, who's had a very long and stressful day at work, stares at her husband, while taking another sip of her liquid dinner. "Do you know how it feels to go through life, never pleasing your father?" "My father is the last person I want to talk about. He spent all of his time drinking and abusing my mother. My father isn't someone who I would ever want to please." "You know…..everything I've done has been for my father. I've set up my entire life to revolve around what he wanted from me. I went to college to major in business to please him. I went back to school to get my master's degree in business management. All of the internships and friends I've made were all to benefit my goal to one day run ELQ. But no matter what I've done or how hard I've worked to try and please him, it was never good enough." Tracy gets up and goes to get more liquor from the bottle. "Alan went to medical school to spite our father. He turned his back on what father yet and yet still, Alan is still his perfect child. All of his children…well all except AJ are perfect. But me? I am a failure in his eyes. So is Ned, my father's namesake and Dillon too. None of us are quite good enough or meet his unreachable expectations." Luke walks over to his wife who's slowly beginning to break down. She tenses up when he tries to hold her, refusing to allow herself to be weak and fall into the habit of thinking she needs a man to make her life feel better. After holding back her tears, she finally lets all of her pain out, crying on her husband's shoulder. "All I want is for him to be proud of me. All I want is for him to be proud of me," she repeats over and over, unaware that Edward is behind the door eavesdropping. <HR> <b>The role of Michael Corinthos III will now be played by Jake Weary.</b> "You know, you don't have to keep hovering around me," an agitated Michael said, not looking up from his text book. "Isn't it enough that you have me grounded, but do you have to watch me like a hawk?" Backing off a little, Carly sat on the couch, pretending to read through a magazine. "Michael, I'm just making sure that you study for your finals. I'm sure you don't want to be forced to go to summer school. Trust me, I don't like grounding you, really I don't," she answered back. Carly was in no mood to argue with her eldest child. She has more than enough stuff on her plate to have to deal with Michael's attitude issues. To say that things between them were tense, well that would be an understatement. The minute Michael returned from school, he'd run up to his room and slam the door. Rather than have dinner as a family, he chose to eat in his room, staying away from Morgan & Carly. Carly put a halt to his wanting to do his homework in solitude too. Something in Michael has changed over the past few months. Instead of being warm and receptive towards his mother and father, he's distant and withdrawn. Michael makes a comment about not having to go through this if he were with AJ. This catches Carly by surprise so she blasts him for talking about him. Michael says he wonders what he life would be like if he wasn't stolen from AJ, if he wasn't kept from him and told so many lies. Carly orders Michael to his room, then asks Leticia to watch Morgan. She needs to take a breather. <HR> Jason arrives at the coffee house to find a very annoyed Sonny. Sonny asks Jason to sit, but Jason prefers to stand. After 5 minute of staring at each other, Sonny asks what Jason has been up to….you know, since he's neglected his duties with Sonny. Jason blows off Sonny, telling him to back off him. "You know Jason if you can't put your focus on our business, then maybe you shouldn't be involved anymore. You have ignored all of my phone calls to you." "As I said…I had things to do Sonny." "I don't care if you had things to do. When I call you answer. You're not a child Jason. You're not just starting out in this business. You are my most trusted friend, my partner, and yet you weren't there when our shipments were raided by Lorenzo. You weren't there when we tried to send him a message and were shot at by his men. You haven't been around Jason." "You know what Sonny? I'm sorry I wasn't there to be your 'muscle' but I do have a life. My life doesn't revolve around you. Did you once call me to see how I've been? No, you haven't. Did you bother to stop by the penthouse and wonder why I haven't been around? No. Did you even know that Sam is alive?" Sonny's speechless. He didn't know the problems that Jason has been going through. He's been so caught up in his own business that he didn't think that Jason could be dealing with his own issues. "What do you mean Sam's alive? She died Jason. You saw her die." "Well she didn't. She's alive and well and living in Wyndemere with Nikolas & Lucky." Jason's emotion slowly begins to come to the surface. He tears up, but refuses to allow himself to feel sad. "She's been alive for months Sonny, with no real memory of who she is. I don't know if it's the explosion that caused it or if Helena did something, but Sam's not her old self. Until I figure out exactly what in the hell happened to the woman that I love, business and this stupid war with Lorenzo will take a backseat." Sonny tries to console Jason, but he pushes Sonny away and takes off. <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -The citizens of Port Charles say goodbye to Brandon Wexler

Endgame- Episode 38 Saturday, May 19, 2007 Robin awakens to Patrick stroking her hair and smiling at her. They kiss each other good morning and smile as they reminisce of their amazing night together. Robin wants Patrick to know that them sleeping together doesn't change her feelings about his attitude recently. He understands that, and admits he feels the same way about her. He doesn’t want their relationship to be about fighting, having great sex (even though that's a plus) only to turn around and fight again. He thinks they should work on their relationship and work on communicating with each other their feelings. Robin admits she overreacted to the Sarah situation, but if she didn't care about him she wouldn't have become so upset. Patrick realizes they need to trust each other completely and not let third parties try to screw up their relationship. The two promise each other that they will put the focus on their relationship, on building a relationship on trust and honesty, and will not let anyone interfere with their happiness. <HR> At the MetroCourt, David is ordering breakfast when he overhears Lucy Coe fussing on the phone with a Private Investigator. He can't help but listen as she tells the PI about her missing daughter. David tells his waiter to order Lucy some strong coffee and the best strawberry pancakes money can buy. He gets up from his table and sits down, confusing Lucy a little. When she gets off the phone, she questions his presence there, not in the mood to deal with anyone right now. David explains that he overheard Lucy and offers his help. Though she's not one to just spill her business, Lucy tells David that her daughter ran off with some guy she was dating and hasn't been heard from for almost 2 weeks. David sympathizes with Lucy's plight. He knows all too well. He explains that his daughter threw her life away to be with a guy who wasn't right for her. When she asks how that ended, he tells her that her husband tried to kill her and begins to spin his version of the JR/Babe relationship. This only scares Lucy more and she freaks out. She wonders if the universe is punishing her, but David thinks it's just a rebellious young adult trying to find her niche. He agrees to get one of the best PI's he knows to help find her daughter Serena. The waiter brings over the order for Lucy, and she thanks David for his help. <HR> Alexis & Ric arrive at Wyndemere looking for Nikolas. When Alfred informs the two that neither Nikolas, Lucky or Sam are there, Alexis decides to wait for them to show up. Ric thinks it's a bad idea, but when Alexis has her mind set on something, there's no changing it. While waiting inside, Helena appears from one of the many Cassadine tunnels and taunts her step-daughter. Alexis attempts to attack Helena, but she pulls a gun on both her and Ric. Helena promises that she is not finished with Alexis or Sam, and when the time comes they'll both suffer. Helena then fires off a warning shot and sneaks away again. Wyndemere Security then rushes in and gets blasted by Alexis. <HR> At General Hospital, the doctors are scrambling to handle the fallout from a big accident on the PC Expressway. Epiphany and Elizabeth are taking care of an injured man. While doing so, Elizabeth can't help but notice how attractive the man in. As she places the medicine on his head, he jerks up in pain, scaring Elizabeth. "Wow, did you really have to do that? You know that hurts." The man stares at Elizabeth with his deep blue eyes. "And you are?" "I'm Elizabeth Spen…Webber. I'm Elizabeth Webber. You were in a car accident. Do you know who you are?" "Yes, I do." She tries to get some information from him, but he's very evasive and stubborn. Epiphany comes in and tries to put the man in his place, but he flips it around and tells her off too. Elizabeth, out of frustration puts more of the medicine on his head, hurting him some more. The young man then gets up and refuses to say in the hospital, seeing as how he has an engagement that he needs to get to. Liz tries to stop him, but Epiphany tells her to let it go. In the process of his leaving, he drops his wallet. Elizabeth picks it up and opens it, looking for his ID. "Hmmmmmm…..Blake Barrington. So that's his name." Elizabeth drops the wallet into her pocket and begins cleaning up the room. She has a very strong feeling that he'll be back. <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -A drunken Tracy opens hear heart to Luke about Edward -Michael & Carly get into a fight about AJ -Jason and Sonny clash over his lack of concern for business -Jax & Ned go into business together Jake Weary makes his "PC" debut tomorrow playing Michael Corinthos, III

Endgame- Episode 37 Friday, May 18, 2007 Port Charles begins with Carly staring at her clock while pacing back and forth. She slowly moves over to her nightstand, grabbing a small object. After some internal prodding, she looks down and sees a blue line on the stick. Shocked, she sits down on her bed and puts her hands on her stomach. "I'm pregnant," Carly says to herself very much in disbelief. "What in the hell am I going to do?" <HR> While the shooting incident was being investigated by the PCPD, Sonny and Lorenzo gave the order to have all shipments to Port Charles ceased. There was to be no traffic going in or out of their ports until further notice. Sonny had a problem though he needed to get rid of and that was the shipment of computer chips still sitting in his warehouse on Pier #53. If the commissioner came snooping, she was sure to find the shipment and it would warrant his arrest. He couldn’t have that, and he needed to dispose of the product as soon as he could figure a way to get rid of it without being detected. While Sonny pondered his next move, Lorenzo dealt with his business from South America. He figured by now the PCPD found out where he had gone to and was already drawing up the papers to extradite him back to the US. He needed to work fast but he needed to be careful. He couldn’t take any chances where Sonny was concerned. <HR> Carly's thoughts are interrupted when she gets a call from Bobbie. Bobbie can tell that something is bothering Carly, but her daughter deflects her questions and tries to prod into her life. Bobbie tells Carly that her and Noah are heading out to Vegas for a few days to relax. Carly hopes she has a good time. Before her mother hangs up, Carly is tempted to tell her everything, but decides that she doesn't want to ruin Bobbie's vacation with her troubles. Carly and Bobbie say their goodbyes. Carly lies down on her bed trying to clear her mind and focus on her pregnancy. She hears when Michael comes in with Morgan, so she cleans up the evidence of the test and heads downstairs to be with her children. <HR> <object width="195" height="100"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpfso6aa1F0"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpfso6aa1F0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpfso6aa1F0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="195" height="100"></embed></object> Evanescence - "My Last Breath" To play the song, click on the video once. ***The content below contains a steamy scene.*** Robin bangs on Patrick's door as hard as she can. "I'm not leaving here until you open the door Patrick!" BOOM BOOM BOOM! She knocks again. "Damn it, open up! You're not going to ignore me! Come on Patrick! I know you're there! You had a late night last night with Sarah didn't you?!" Patrick finally comes to the door and flings it open. Looking visibly angry, he asks her what the hell her problem is. "What's wrong with you? You can't just come here banging on my door, screaming our business out as loud as you can." Robin pushes past Patrick to get into the apartment. "I'm here because we're supposed to be in a relationship Patrick. A relationship. Yet I hear you're going out with Sarah still? Do you know how that makes me feel? I thought we were past the silly games." "For the record, I haven't been anywhere with Sarah Webber since our last month. You know….when I found you out with Steven. And if I did…..and that's a big 'if', it wouldn't be any of your business. You made it clear to me that you were unhappy with my 'behavior'. Am I supposed to just sit around crying over you? I don't think so Dr. Scorpio, I'm not that kind of man. If you want a crybaby, just go see Steven Webber. I've apologized on more than one occasion for upsetting you, but you continue to allow yourself to be influenced by Steven and his not to subtle sister." "Oh come on Patrick," Robin says angrily. "Steven and I are just friends. He's been nothing but a gentleman to me since we've met. Unlike you, he's considerate towards my feelings." The two continue going back and forth until Robin says something that upsets Patrick. He tries to throw her out, but she refuses to leave. Robin slaps Patrick after he calls her an immature child with a superiority complex. He taunts her with a patronizing tone and she goes to slap him again. This time, he catches her hand and pulls her into a kiss. She pushes him away, then pulls him in for another kiss. The anger that the two have been feeling for each other for weeks turns into uncontrollable Passion! Patrick rips open Robin's blouse, exposing her extremely toned body and beautifully shaped chest. Robin reaches for Patrick's pants, fumbling to open unbutton them as he kisses her neck, already feeling the pulsing coming from underneath his pants. Patrick pulls off his shirt, before pulling Robin's ripped blouse down to her arms and pushes her against the wall. Patrick goes into his wallet to grab a condom; Robin takes off her pants, getting down to her dark purple panties from Victoria Secret. Patrick can already feel the rush of entering Robin. The sheer thought just brings him to attention. Robin pulls Patrick to him as he enters her while against the wall. Robin quivers from head to toe as Patrick slowly thrusts in and out, leaving her gasping for air. She lifts up her leg, praying for him to go deeper and deeper as he drives his rock hard shaft into her sweet abyss. Patrick picks Robin up as she wraps her legs around him. The two are so enthralled into their passion, that they don't notice they're destroying his apartment. From wall to wall, the two crash into paintings and furniture, only enveloped in the exotic trance of their connection! The intensity of their passion cannot be described, damn near bringing them both to the verge of unconsciousness. Eventually the two wind up in the bedroom. Robin pleads for Patrick not to stop. He kisses her supple mounds, teasing them with his tongue, then caressing the small of her back. This is all about pleasuring Robin, making her feel how much he loves her...wants her....craves her. He thrusts in yet again with the power of 10 men, she SCREAMS out his name, still gasping for air as she digs her fingernails deeper and deeper into his back as he goes deeper and deeper into her welcoming vortex. Patrick can feel Robin getting closer and closer to her peak. Her leg begins to numb, her eyes roll into the back of her head as her entire body shakes. Patrick decides this is the time for him as well and let's go his of his nectar, filling the condom to it's maximum capacity. Feeling euphoric, he thrusts a few more times, wanting to savor every moment while inside her sweet abyss. Both feeling satisfied, the two then pass out in each other's arms, reliving their recent encounter over…and over…and over again. <HR> On the next Port Charles: Endgame -Elizabeth meets one of the most stubborn patients -David overhears Lucy as she's trying to track down Serena -Patrick & Robin make a special promise to each other -Alexis & Ric trip to Wyndemere doesn't end well….
