From what I understand, Liz's baby goes missing and they lock-down the hospital. Inside are Jason (recovering from a terrible beating and possible stabbing in jail) and POSSIBLY Tracy being ill after her ordeal in the dungeon (Hooked - more deductive reasoning than simple speculation). Spoilers have indicated that most of PC (at least 30 of their 65 citizens) are inside the hospital at the time. Claire is a suspect according to some - although I'm thinking it's more like Lucky looking at her and asks, and she tells him he's nuts to even suspect... 5 seconds that's it. Franco is supposed to be part of this I think (although the dates aren't quite jibbing for me). As for my conclusions about Tracy being ill, they come from a few sources: 1. Luke is worried about Tracy.... why? 2. Luke breaks BOTH he and Tracy out... it doesn't say LuNacy breaks out together, suggesting that Tracy is incapacitated some way 3. If Tracy is incapacitated, she won't be able to spill all of Helena's secrets 4. Steve is going to have scenes with LuNacy in the next 2-3 weeks, thus fitting the timeframe 5. Spoilers indicate all the significant players will be at the hospital during Lock-down, and LuNacy (Luke anyway) are usually included in the 'significant players' list

Agreed. That stands out to me too - other 'spoilers' were contradicted but not this one. Arguably none of that spoiler is rocket science - we've already figured out that LuNacy is together in Helena's dungeon the final week of May/first week of June, and Tracy will never kick Luke to the curb. The sweeps thing? Well perhaps GH has declared their own Sweeps schedule! The industry only makes a big deal about November and February anyway, and GH has had sweeps-type stories outside of those timeframes before. Either way it's looking more like Tracy is in bad shape once LuNacy escapes, and Steve must be the one to treat her when Luke brings her into the hospital. Then they are there for the lock-down during the Franco thing. Lucky will be perhaps visiting Liz, and Lulu/Ethan could very well be visiting Tracy. Jason in there so Sam/Spin/Carly will be at the hospital with possibly Monica/Edward. It does seem that all the significant players will be there because of loved ones in medical need.

duelling insiders on SD, this was all they had on LuNacy:

Here is a pic of the SOD previews with the actual wording... http://i49.tinypic.com/15hmqvs.jpg Just the way it is worded, I don't think the legality is an issue. It's probably along the lines of where he ranks it in his life.

That would explain the need for Steve in a couple of weeks. I'm even becoming a Jason Shipper without that. Odd but true... the dissolution of CarSaSon is really working for Jason IMO.

No, no... remember the Toxic Balls - Tracy left the hospital before she was cleared.

Well she is in a dungeon - that's can't be good for her back or her lungs after the poison.

Something is up for sure.... More stuff:

Mmm... sounds good. That's just as plausible as anything else we've been booting around, and you're right - it's nicer. The CH thing sounds ridiculous. Perhaps it's a computer thing - I highly doubt the woman that's on 2 shows, writing books, performing elsewhere and having a life it bothered with how many people she has on Twitter. That's teenage mentality, not an accomplished adult's.

GH Prevues I'm wondering if Tracy gets sick or Helena does something to her, and Luke manages to get her to the hospital. That would explain Steve working with them and would have them at GH for the lockdown. I can't see TG being on the canvas and not being part of a large cast story/sweeps-style story.

We can't assume anything with LuNacy and Helena. It might boil down to Luke telling her something she doesn't believe and him having to convince her. You know how overblown and misleading spoilers can be.Funny thing this morning. I woke up and one of my new emails said Carolyn Hennesy was following me on Twitter. Now I get these emails frequently and just ignore, but I opened this one up and sure enough, it's our very own Diane! She's going to be bored to tears with me, but how funny is that.

Dillon has gone to B&B. The announcement was earlier today.

Meh.... might work. I can imagine a few I could try that with. The whole rabidly jealous/cheating is norm thing is just odd. How can you accept it but not??? I would LOVE to see Luke and Tracy unpack that one a little.

LOL... yes, I laughed at the Martinet thing and that's exactly what I thought. As for open marriage? It seems as long as the 'others' are cabana boys and floozies, they tolerate. But when it's people they actually know - like Skye, Anna or Ethan, those two get EXTREMELY jealous. So I'm not sure how truly open it is. He had to be legally divorced from Laura... but wouldn't it be interesting if the actual lie he told was to Laura about how they aren't married. Either way Tracy is the 'winner'.

Luke knows Tracy, and it was nice hearing that they always celebrate their anniversary together no matter what else is happening. The thing it Fiji is plausible, but Luke has to work it out... his instincts are telling him this is wrong, so it won't take him long. We also learned that Tracy rubs her own infidelities in Luke's face, calling him when she's on vacation. I'm not sure how I feel about Tracy cheating on Luke, but meh.... quid pro quo... That one dialogue told us a lot about LuNacy's relationship and what they do in their down-time actually.

^^^ Exactly - bottom line Tracy has a story with Luke and Helena, and in the end LuNacy comes out of it stronger than every. What happens between now and then is probably going to put us through the ringer and give us moment of great elation, but it's not going to ultimately be the ruin of Luke and Tracy. I think Guza has been quoted about 8 times since January that Luke really loves Tracy. What can Luke possibly say about their marriage is what my imagination is stuck on.

Nex, that's perhaps the wisest place to be.

This is the problem with talking heads - the parasites of the medium - they give their opinion due to copyright stuff, and we NEVER KNOW what is actually going to play out until it happens. That Tracee on SD is the worst - so hateful and negative. I don't buy any of her 'interpretations' because she's just so mean. the fighting back thing is what I'm wondering about - is it a tiff and they sort it out? Timeline wise it seems to happen while they are locked up together. We know Guza is behind LuNacy for the win, so after that it's just a matter of fastening our seat belts. The whole thing is a big question and we've got probably less to go on now than we usually do with Tracy spoilers (which are rare to begin with) Ultimately all we know is that Luke and Tracy WILL be together and stronger for this experience, and Helena will ultimately fail. Everything up until that point is a crap shoot.

Okay... let me see if I can get the gist of that (btw hating when talking heads put in their own 2 cents worth - it throws everything off) Helena DOES indeed capture Luke and while LuNacy are together Luke admits something about their marriage that COULD be troubling for Tracy or Luke or both. Tracy doesn't react well and Luke has to work to get her back on track. In the meantime Tracy is sitting on a power keg of information, and rather than following her natural instincts to use it as leverage she tells the fullness of her knowledge to the man she loves above all else. So even though she's insecure about Skye being around and how dedicated Luke truly is, Tracy still loves him too much to hold Luke or his biological family over the proverbial barrel. Actually yeah, I can see how this only deepens LuNacy's connection in the long run, but it's going to be a bumpy ride along the way. EDIT The Mob Focus argument is crap and getting less strength every time I hear it. The mob is background music but certainly not the whole deal. Viewers are returning to GH BECAUSE of the relationship stories happening - and the mobbies have relationships too. The ONLY mob-focused story we have is a little side number done by Johnny wanting to bring down Sonny. Other than that the mob isn't even present - it's as relevant as ELQ, the Metro Court and the Cassidine history in day-to-day life. If we take a good look at the canvas, the Corrinthos family is falling apart but he Spencers are equally front-and-center and getting stronger every day.

that isn't even legible. I'm looking forward to what you actually hear hooked. Tracy being insecure - yes we know that. But what does Helena and Skye have to do with each other??? I would actually really like them in cahoots.... two down for the price of one once LuNacy prevails.

I know.... what could it be? He has already told her a million times he loves her, comes home to her alone, that she's the centre of it all and makes life worthwhile. It's too late to worry about consummation - been there done that many, many times according the them. Outside of legalities what else is there?

I don't feel shat upon. I'm not pleased about Skye obviously, but I think the fact that the anniversary was mentioned so much was acceptable. We already knew Tracy would be MIA - so really this May 19th was the same kind of spring board as May 19th, 2005. I imagine when they finally reunited Tracy will give him grief for falling into Helena's trap and Luke won't care because he'll be so happy to know she's safe.

Agreed. Aside from the Skye thing being in bad taste, why is she stuck on Luke's anniversary date and why go to the HS KNOWING he would be celebrating with Tracy? What is going on with her? The only reason I remember my ex's anniversary is because he told me himself that he choice that date for the historic significance, and it was a month after mine. Without those two pins I wouldn't remember anything.

I already know Lainey is going to hate today, so will others. It wasn't that great for LuNacy until the end when Luke quickly put it together that Tracy might be in trouble. Then he had a look of worry that mirrored Tracy's look that Helena was counting on Luke coming for Tracy so he could be in Hell's trap as well. (At least Hells didn't pretend that Luke wouldn't come or they shared more 'past' that Luke was telling Tracy) Interesting little blip - Luke thought Tracy was giving him the up-yours by travelling to the Caribbean and sleeping with Cabana boys. Lukey sounded pretty bitter about that one, lol.. Now it's long believed that Tracy is faithful as the day is long, but what is she allowing LUKE to believe???? Kinda serves him right for his flirting with anything in a skirt. We could have done shots to the word "Anniversary" though. Luke and Skye mentioned it numerous times, and Tracy said it at least once.

That's true. Tracy is a surprisingly private woman for all her approach, and doesn't like to be singled out through affection. I would like to see him do more for her as well. Started a Happy Anniversary thread on SOC - please post.
