GH: SID Makes A Good Point


Recommended Posts

GH never did fully reveal the contents of the briefcase that Mr. Craig was so frantic to obtain.

Here's my theory:

When the case was opened--I'm not sure by whom--and its contents were revealed to the audience, it appeared to me to be a bunch of slides, such as those one would place under a microscope. This led me to the conclusion that they may have been related to the Epidemic storyline from the previous February. It always seemed to me that that story was never fully wrapped up. Perhaps Alcazar was able to procure a sample of the virus and was attempting to sell it on the black market. Or, perhaps his intentions were nobler and he was still concerned with the possibility that Lila Rae had somehow contracted the disease through Skye and was attempting to create another cure without the use of Luke's antibodies. Then again, that possibility doesn't quite explain Mr. Craig's involvement.

Just my theory... I could easily be way off base. But I do think this would make an interesting plot twist. I am interested in hearing other's ideas though. It seems quite odd that GH suddenly dropped the entire basis of its month-long storyline.

Yes that has always been a thought of mine! We spent a month hearing about the darn briefcase and then nothing came of what was inside! Sonny told Ric the correct code, but Skye lied and gave him a fake one and Ric used that and POOF! contents gone! Bore...

    • The actor who plays Martin has been teasing that nobody has guessed Martin's secret. I love that for things like that and the June story we have no idea. I feel like if we didn't have the day ahead feeds Anita's reveal would've been shocking as well. I love that they aren't going the obvious route with these stories. 
    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining.
