GH 1976 Pt 7 Jeff, meanwhile, has been upset because Monica has rejected his suggestion that they have a baby. He assumes that her refusal is due to her own upbringing as an orphan and a lack of security. Actually, she admits to herself, she wants only Rick’s baby, and she rejects Jeff’s offer of a house of their own as an anchor for her. Monica sees a divorce lawyer to find out about no-fault divorce, but is thwarted to learn that Jeff would have to agree, since there are no grounds. Monica manufactures small incidents to keep. Jeff on the defensive and moves out of their bedroom. Hurt and frustrated, he begins a vicious cycle of sleeping pills followed by “uppers” to get through the day. When Jeff grabs her arm while trying to talk to her, she pulls away, causing a bruise, which she exhibits later to Rick, Terri, and Audrey as proof that Jeff is not the sweet guy everyone thinks he is. Jeff is crushed when he finds Rick’s letter; now he’s convinced that Monica never really loved him at all. She won’t discuss it or anything with him, and he takes more pills to face this. Finally he has a reaction to them. Heather’s there when the suffocating attack occurs, and she helps him through it, assuring him that she won’t tell anyone. When Jeff, miserably upset, drinks too much at their anniversary party, hosted by Terri, Monica puts on a long suffering wife act to impress Rick. With Steve’s recovery almost complete, he and Audrey begin their wedding plans. But Tommy presents a problem when he tells his mother that he doesn’t have a father and stepfathers can’t be trusted. Audrey and Steve help him gain a sense of identity by seeing where his real father, Dr. Tom Baldwin, worked in the hospital, and Steve prepares to adopt Tommy as soon as the marriage is performed. There should be no problems, since they have a coroner’s report of Tom’s death in Mexico. But Tom Baldwin isn’t dead. Convicted of a murder he didn’t commit and sentenced to life imprisonment in a Mexican prison, he arranged for forged death papers, to save his infant son from a life as the son of a convicted murderer. He assumed the nurse took Tommy to Audrey, and has no idea that she kidnapped the child, who was later recovered by his mother. But Tom now has hope, as an attorney, Ramon Hernandez, has an eyewitness to the real killer and is starting the machinery of rescuing Tom. But since Tom is legally dead, the judge won’t reopen: the case. Tom’s only hope is the nurse who was with him in Mexico. He writes to Florence Anderson for help, and she goes to the park to take Tommy’s picture, but is afraid to go to Mexico to testify about the forged papers. After a cruise to restore her health, Leslie comes home to have her suspected pregnancy confirmed. ‘Knowing now that Cam was a truly evil man, Leslie fears that his child, conceived by rape, could be just as evil. She considers abortion but rejects it immediately, as she did when she was pregnant with Laura. However, when Cam’s secretary offers her a letter of | Cam’s in which he embarrassingly and very fully contrasts his wife and his mistress, Leslie buys her off (for a thousand dollars, to match Men-Women Magazine’s offer) and decides that abortion may be the right choice after all. Peter assures her the child will be whatever she raises it to be—if it has love, it will be loving—but Leslie has a nightmare in which her child turns out to be a devil, and she secretly arranges for an out-of-town abortion, asking Terri not to tell Rick, whom she insists she’s not attracted to. Terri’s attempt to help Mary Ellen, called Mellie now, fails miserably when Mellie, instantly jealous of Terri, hysterically tells her what Mark did to her in the accident. Never having heard of the story, Terri is helpless, and has to call the doctor to treat Mellie. Terri is furious at Mark for not preparing her, but soon accepts his apology, understanding that he was reluctant to admit what had snapped Mellie’s mind. Mellie runs away from the sanitarium and is hit by a car. Feeling that she is now suicidal, Mark has her father come to take her back to Boston. Terri goes to Mellie and pleads with her to forgive Mark, because he loves her. Mellie asks her father whether, when one has enemies, one should try to keep them. in view or ignore them. He replies that one should watch them, then asks Mark about this. Peter suggests that enemies can be things as well as people, and agrees to accept Mellie as a patient when Mark decides she should stay in Port Charles. Realizing that Mellie needs attention, Peter suggests that Diana befriend her. Mellie isn’t overly enthusiastic about this. Monica is furious at Steve’s anniversary gift: a week’s honeymoon in Florida. Jeff tries to force their acceptance, hoping they can salvage something, but Monica fakes flu, canceling the trip, then makes a miraculous recovery. When Rick’s former surgical adviser, Dr. Pierre Namath, arrives in Port Charles, Monica promotes an invitation to join him and Rick at his farm. Rick refuses for her, explaining that she is now his brother’s wife, but Monica, undaunted, arrives at the farm by bus, assuring Rick that she left Jeff a note explaining where she is. Heather, however, who has seen Monica buy the bus ticket, manages to mention it to Jeff, who consoles himself with more pills and liquor. When Rick’s car breaks down on the way back, they have to spend the night in a small town, and Rick calls Terri to explain, learning that Jeff had no idea where Monica had gone. Monica manages to pull a fast one and turn herself into the object of pity, winding up in tears, which precede a romantic and passionate embrace. But Jeff goes after them in fury, and Rick, warned by Terri’s call, takes another room, so all is seemly when Jeff arrives. When Monica coldly asks him why he didn’t read her note, he apologizes humbly. Monica manages to dash off a note and drop it on the floor at home for Jeff to find, citing the note as proof that their marriage was a mistake. The next day Monica tells Rick that Jeff told her their marriage was a mistake. -
Excellent Roman and Kayla scenes. Best work I’ve seen from Josh Taylor. That was real emotion there. Awesome comments to wrap up Roman and John. Deidre Hall was once again perfect. When she slightly snapped at Abe and Paulina for asking about the funeral. Just perfect. Hope we get a lot more of Julie with Marlena. As rude as it is, I wish they would’ve done another Eileen/Stacy switch for this story. Stacy’s Kristen is completely defined by Brady and we don’t get flashbacks. The balls on EJ to show up at Marlena and John’s home. It was so perfect and sad. -
It could have been interesting, given that she and Alex were friends. I imagine he would have ended up bringing out her Solita personality. For all the talk of crazy fans, for a long time fans did seem willing to embrace the rivals of...well, Reva's rivals. (no wonder Kim felt insecure as it happened three times with her) You don't seem to get as much of the tribalism until the "Manny" era. I guess some might say "Matessa" too, but as I could not stand Dinah in those years, I am not one to talk about their fans if they managed to repeatedly put the kibosh on a Matt/Dinah pairing. And at least that did not seem to involve death threats. -

Tony is furious that no one is challenging this, but Viki explains that they can’t do anything, as the law is on Dorian’s side and a challenge would only be a public statement of lack of trust in Victor’s wife.

Michelle Forbes really captivated GL viewers so it was smart of Long to take advantage of that. When I looked back at news items and letters to the editors, I found so many letters to the editors/columns upset she was not nominated for Best Actress the year before she was nominated for supporting actress. I read somewhere that they had planned a major storyline with Sonni and Roger but that it never came to pass because Forbes wanted to leave the show. I wonder what they had in mind. -

Haha, love to hear it, and thank you! Yeah, I just write down thoughts/notes as I'm watching in this viewing journal I'm keeping. So, you get my raw, honest thoughts in the moment without me having to go back and remember or curate anything.Please register in order to view this content
Watros is great, and I've liked her from the beginning, so I'm excited to see her evolve and shine even more as Annie continues to descend. I'll keep an eye out for that scene. I have to say, Rick cracks me up, there are times when he makes jokes and you can tell the actor is having fun with it and cracking himself up. He's endearing. Let me suffer! So funny how big Josh's hair is in the 80s. Sign of the times, I guess. I can't wait to finally see the Sonni storyline and watch a younger Michelle Forbes shine. It's on my list, I will go back in time eventually and do this -
