Does anyone recognize the child actor in the following episode? It’s driving me nuts!  The scene starts @ 25:42 with David Wallace (Tom Hardy) and continues later in scenes with Wallace and Laura Carrington (Simone).

At what point did they stop referring to Tristan Roger's character as Scorpio and started calling him Robert?

 

Was it Holly or Anna who first called him Robert?  Or was it Mac, in order to facilitate the differentiation of the Scorpio brothers? 

 

Bonus points if anyone can answer my other question about what happened between Tristan and the actress that played Prunella?

 

Extra bonus points if anyone can tell me why Kevin doesn't live in the lighthouse he bought from Bill Eckart on Port Charles (besides the obvious that the set was destroyed years ago, I mean have they addressed it in the story)?

I can't recall when Tiffany went from calling him Scorpio to calling him Robert, but I can recall her drawl when calling for him.

 

I searched the actress who played Prunella the other day when the topic first appeared.  She was in Number 96 which is one of the first Aussie soaps.  Her character was the pantyhose killer.  Perhaps Aussie actors didn't complain to producers about things like stories being preposterous?

Does anyone recall what happened to Buzz and Sandy Stryker?

 

Dr. Buzz was Jimmy Lee's best friend from Colorado and Sandy was his nursing student daughter.  At one point Buzz was so important that he and Sean Donnally were named by Felicia as two of her godfathers for her wedding to Frisco.  Meanwhile, I doubt Buzz even sent a gift by the time Maxie was born.

 

Also were Sean and Buzz Felicia's godfathers or Robin's? And who were the other godfathers?

Robin’s three godfathers were Frisco, Sean and Buzz.

 

As for Sandy Stryker, she left GH and nursing in March of 1987 to become a veterinarian.  And in June of ‘87, Buzz requested a month’s leave of absence to go help an old buddy start a clinic for Veterans, but he never returned.

Another example that Anna has been a terrible mother to Robin.  She deserted her at a young age with Philomena, gave her three deadbeat godfathers who've never kept in touch, and I doubt she ever reimbursed Mac for Robin's college and med school expenses!  I think Anna's long lost children would better off raised by anyone else.

Today's random thought was about Rick and Leslie's house. 

 

Please correct/fill in my memories.  Leslie lived in the house when Laura was a murderous teen,  Then Rick moved in, married Leslie, and she "died" in a car crash.  Rick continued to live in the house with Ginny until she left.  I recall Tony living there.  I know Lucy lived there, with Colton and her Aunt, because her infamous Red Hat Wedding to Alan happened in the Ol' Webber House.  Now Mac lives there and raised Maxie and Robin in that house.

 

How did Mac get the house?  Did Lucy move in after her affair with Tony?  Didn't Felicia own it at one point?  Wasn't Ginny's baby daddy Lawrence Barrington the uncle of PC Alison Barrington?  I wonder if they'll ever bring Ginny's kid back to make up for Rafe?

Robert and Anna moved into the Webber home sometime in 1991.  After the Scorpio's were presumed dead. Mac ended up with the Webber home. Where he raised a teenaged Robin with Holly. I don't remember Felicia owning the Webber home. I remember Lucy moving in once she married Tony. Ginny's baby daddy was Derek Barrington.   The Scorpio's residing in the Webber home. In this clip.

@victoria foxton I find it amusing that we've seen Anna's taste when she lived in her cottage with Casey the Alien, and we saw how Rick and Ginny decorated the house, so we can only assume that those ugly curtains and decor were Robert's taste.  Did all of Sean Donnally's stolen Egyptian art wind up in Leslie Webber's living room?

    • I think the arrival of the Spauldings (Alan/Elizabeth/Phillip) caused the erosion of Sara's character on the show since Elizabeth took over Sara's place in the whole Justin/Jackie story.  Sara's brief marriage to another deceptive man sounded like it paled in comparison to the previous deceptive man story that she had played the decade beforehand.. and it was probably done because of the whole Alan/Jackie/Mike/Elizabeth cluster that took off story wise.   I know the show had introduced Brandy, the woman Justin cheated on Jackie with... but I don't believe she lasted more than a year.. and didn't make much of an impression. While the Dobson's were good at writing/juggling multiple characters/stories.. they weren't perfect though they did manage to make use of characters not in the front burner like Sara, Ann, etc. I do know that Sara/Adam looked to be starting up at the end of the Dobson era with a jealous/regretful Barbara looking on.. which played out during the Roger/Holly rape story and Hollys prison story.   I don't know if Marland was as inspired by that story when he took over
    • If you ever make it to the Paley Center in NYC (fka Museum of TV and Radio), in their viewing room, you can watch Days 1/1/73 featuring Denise Alexander as Susan. It’s her last month on the show before switching to GH.
    • Overall I was impressed with this week and fall out from the revealation.  I am looking forward to seeing the Nicole/Dana showdown next week.  I do wonder if June is going to be tied to Hayley.  
    • I thought Adam and Sara got married? Although I do not remember any mention of her when Adam returned for Blake's weddings. But MA certainly got the short end of the stick storywise, as Marland's obsession with therapy reared it's head. 
    • Didn’t Meg Bennett return to SFT as a writer in the last few years. I always wondered if they tried to get her back as Liza.
    • Millette Alexander got the short end of the stick once they killed off Joe. The Justin thing was a non-starter. Then she was briefly married to Alan's corrupt lawyer and HE was killed off. She was paired briefly with Adam and that ended because she believed Holly over Roger about the rape. Definitely, Marland had zero interest in her except as the therapist for the many, many of his female characters who needed therapy. It's not odd she left the show. One of the rare 1978 episodes on YT shows Alan going to Cedars for a physical check-up. He ends up with Sarah as his doctor. In between making mysoginistic comments about women doctors, he also openly flirts with her. It's very obvious they were chem testing Sarah and Alan. It's a really good scene. Bernau is both obnoxious and charming and Millette is amazing, trying to be pleasant and profesional without rolling her eyes at him, but at the same time maybe a LITTLE bit attracted to him. An interesting what-might-have-been. So it appears the Dobsons were actively looking for someone to pair her with, they just never found the right one for a long-term story.
    • I'm happy to read whatever you provide, @Paul Raven.
