Luke isn't mentioned at all. He is probably too busy whooping it up with his new pal Ethan. He will probably find out about it all when he walks into the Q living room and says "hello family, I've got a new houseguest"

I am beginning to think any scenes of him being there for Tracy in her time of need were BS. If anything, maybe it is after she gets saved he expresses feelings or something to her.

In a way, it is nice if it is Edward who helps pull her through this. She has waited her whole life for her father to care about her.

Positivity, Hooked. You know Lukey is going to be at the hospital next week and will rescue his lady fair. Luke has not missed being the hero in a single sweeps in his 30 years, if he was on the canvas at the time. Even his second heart attack at the B&W Ball was because he wanted to 'rescue' Nicholas from his grief. He'll be there.

At least Tracy is mentioned. That's nice to see.

Well Matt is said to recover quickly. Monica is amoung the worst while Tracy was the last sick. Winnie on that helicopter ride is an odd one. I would imagine they would have to be transported to Mercy before they were cleared to return home.

Anyone on SD elaborate about what we will be enjoying after the crisis with LuNacy?

Sorry to hear about the flu.

Up until now the only BS we've received YTD is that Tracy wasn't getting sick after all. Turns out the original spoilers were correct. Not only is Tracy becoming sick and needing Luke to be her hero (something we've all wanted) but they are also having Luke and Tracy is two different stories at the moment, picking up on our argument that Tracy doesn't need Luke around to be in a story. I hope these are lessons well learned at that we won't have 2009 being the disaster that 2008 was.

Recaps, Wednesday January 4th

STATS

Vets: Monica, Edward, Tracy,

Kisses: n/a

Appearance: Dark blue orderly garb and ugly shoes with cloth covering

Other Stories: Pat/Sam/Jason/Spin in hero mode; Robin taking Emma through blizzard and the van has problems; JoMax don't go all the way; Lulu's trying to get out of hospital to find Johnny; Lucky sitting with Liz; Jax trying to throw weight around to get answers; Alexis taking control situation; Spin is worried about Maxie; Robin/Emma walking in the blizzard; delivery guy trys to use Jase as hostage to get out; Sam shoots Jason in the shoulder while they try to deal with the delivery guy

Line of the Day: Tracy to Edward - "Why can't you just be proud of your children for who they are?"

Sc. 1 - no Tracy

Sc. 2 - no Tracy

Sc. 3 - Tracy brings coffee to Edward and Monica, saying she needs to have a spare set of clothing in her office for next time a toxic chemical is set loose in the hospital. Edward says she survived the cleansing just like he did, and she looks like would have made a good doctor - Tracy says she looks like an orderly. Edward/Tracy argument - (Sorry, sorry... I just can't keep up.) Tracy demands why can't Edward just be proud of his children for a change. Tracy was the one who was the business person, not Alan. Edward says Alan was the steady one, she ran around Europe looking for a husband. Tracy says she wouldn't have had to if he had given her the business like he should have, and that Alan couldn't manage anything including the hospital. Edward gets up and says lets ask Alan? then looks at Tracy asking if Alan was around. Tracy says don't mock me. Monica awakes and tells them both to stop arguing. Edward tells Monica about the biotoxin.

Sc. 4 - Edward tells Monica the poison should be contained. Jason comes in to see Monica. Tracy says fine, but let her get out of there first before she gets contaminated. Edward is perplexed saying Tracy was exposed to the toxin, not Jason. Jason says he's glad Monica is doing better. Monica asks if Jason is responsible for this and Jason is surprised by her question.

Sc. 5 - Jason tells Monica he's got nothing to do with the biotoxin and is working with the FBI. He assures Monica that he would never intentionally hurt innocent people or the hospital. Monica says she knows but it's nice to hear. They talk about how Monica is feeling and how Jason has to help the people who need it. Edward and Tracy come back in and Ed asks if Jason is actually helping. Monica says she always knew he could be a doctor. Tracy laughs and says "That thug?" Monica says he had nothing to do with this, and Tracy asks when is Monica ever going to take off her rose coloured glasses and see Jason for whom he really is.

Sc. 6 - no Tracy

Sc. 7 - Tracy (breathing hard) tells Patrick he needs to apologize to the Q's. Patrick says he'll apologize later but right now he's got a job to do. Tracy isn't letting him go and keeps yelling at him. Patrick yells back and it's obvious Tracy is struggling. She starts to really gasp for breath as she clutches her chest, and says "Oh crap", and she falls in to Patrick and crumbles to the floor. Patrick tries to get her to focus on breathing.

hooked, you are hilarious!! :lol: I called my mother in here for you comments, and she is cracking up too.

All right...This might be unpopular, but Jane Elliot did not nail those passing out scenes. From the photos of Tracy in the hospital, I wasn't sure she would (I don't think she knows how to play sick very well). But, anyway... I know she was having trouble breathing, and honestly, I don't know what that feels like or looks like, but her expressions/noises as she was going down were laughable to me.

Once she was down, I was okay with the short squeals, and I was okay with her being out of breath in the beginning. That all sounded fine... But that middle portion just made me shake my head (and laugh)... My mom said it reminded her of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vFVnTMwt3w :lol: IMO, it would have been better for Tracy to collapse quietly, like Kate or Claudia. If she is in and out of it tomorrow, I hope she does a better job. I mean, I love her as actress still, and I know not everyone's perfect, but what I saw today was just "No."

On a positive note, loved Monica waking up to Edward and Tracy bickering. Too funny (and how perfect)! :lol:

EDIT: This is random, but I got slippers like Tracy. :D LOL.

^^^ Picky, picky, picky..... she's had to play almost every strong female sterotype that you can imagine, but she's never had to play collapsing before. I thought it was better than Lukey's heart attacks - but wanna lay odds the same director was telling them how to do it?

OMG! Ms.Q, that clip was sooo funny, that I almost got in trouble here at work because I couldn't stop laughing, my boss asked me what was wrong and I couldn't control myself.

I do know what you mean about the way Tracy went down, it was kinda funny and I was trying to be objective. But how come Edward had sneakers and Tracy gets slippers? I think the wardrobe department made a booboo when dressing him.

Actually, she has collapsed at least twice - once when she was drunk with Ashton (but then again, a "drunk" collapse is different than a "can't breathe" one). And she also passed out when Luke drugged her. That was a nice quiet collapse, which looked good 'til he got her in the wheelchair (she looked a bit stiff at that point, LOL). I still think she's one of GH's best actresses, just like I think TG is one of GH's best actors - even after their " :o " performances of falling.

nex, I didn't mean for you to almost get in trouble!!! But yes, that clip is hilarious, although the woman was hurt... But she was fine in the end, and that is what counts here. :lol: As for the slippers/gym shoes - maybe they gave the men gym shoes and the women comfy slippers? Or maybe Jane just requested slippers, LOL...

Well Carly looks like she has sneakers on too. Perhaps Jane requested it (we know she likes her slippers), or perhaps they dressed her in things that could easily be removed because she was the next/last to go down.

But from JE's perspective, I bet she's enjoying a few days without heals and make-up.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
    • Thanks. I'm glad we have some fan memories of these years as this is such a typically snide take on the genre. It's also poorly written and reminds me a great deal of the tedious "snark" recaps that became popular in the '90s. The end in particular. The 1979/80 stuff I have seen is much more polished than a number of soaps at the time. It was very easy to watch and not too bogged down in past story.  Margo is played by Ann Williams, who was on what seemed like every soap. I think she said Margo was her favorite role.  These episodes aren't consecutive, but if you ever have time, they are worth a watch. They are bits and pieces from January and April of 1979 - April in and out of prison, her past calling to her via her psychic powers (and the suicide of Miles' wife Denise, who had murder framing in mind). April 1979 has the end of Winter Austen (such a fantastic soap name).  I don't want to drop a ton of links but you can find playlists on Youtube.
    • And the rating 'wars' continue...hehe.
    • Well, it was fun while it lasted for Rebecca Herbst. Le sigh.    
    • I am wholeheartedly enjoying this show. I just haven't been able to post as much as I used to. But yes, this episode needs to be submitted for the EMMYs and there needs to be wins. I better NOT see Y&R, DAYS, or B&B winning in categories over BTG. I feel like the only show that is giving BTG an ounce of competition this season is GH.
