Okay, I was wrong. I thought we'd get LuNacy continuing their conversation today considering how it hung yesterday, but no such luck. But we've had 3 days of Luke, 2 of Tracy... perhaps they follow-up tomorrow.

Otherwise a very full day:

Alexis/Rayner's date continues and talk about Rebecca's past and Helena's dosser

Michael blowing up at Robin and has a hard time dealing with his reality, later Claudia manipulates him against Carly

CarSon talk about Michael and his manipulation

Claudia tells Jax about CarSon hug and wants Jax to keep Carly away from Sonny, Jax basically tells her to go to h*ll

Rebecca tells Nic more about her past then Alexis interrupts

Scrubs discuss Michael, drugs, Emma and the changes since Robin's PPD

Sonny sends Jason to check out and after-hours club and he pulls a young teen out of there (supposedly Kristina)

Michael sneaks out of the hospital (not bad for a kid who could barely walk yesterday) and is stopped by Toussaint

AND

Helena has returned. First she checks out Rebecca's room then stops Becs on the docks, telling her she's much more formidable than Emily every was.

It was a huge surprise I think to the writers too who just had to majorly rewrite a bunch of stuff! LOL

No... we were told ages ago it wasn't a coincidence that Rebecca and Ethan showed up the same week. NL isn't told everything up front.

From this person who has been posting things for me and a few others...they are the ones who said the filing was a plot point and that Tracy would not be free of Luke anytime soon and that Jane had scenes with Martha Byrne and had some with the hospital arc but not too much...

My 3:30am insomnia being wired on drugs (and not the fun kind) sometimes gets info! LOL

I checked with my source TracyFan and there is no actual divorce. Those where the exact words I was told. I do believe she attempts to get a divorce.

Carson fans, the upcoming scenes are more bonding because of Michael.

Lulu/Ethan are supposed to have uncomfortable moments between them. I have no clue where it is going. I asked my source and he would not give anything. All he said was they would continue to interact as siblings as well as have uncomfortable moments.

Johnny and Olivia have a lot more coming with Sonny/Claudia as well as more sex. I asked if it was just sex and my source said it was supposed to be some real feelings are going to get involved soon.

I asked for clarification on Matt's story and I was told its P/R supporting him. This story is really about Matt. Its going to lead to a bigger hospital arc.

Maxie and Spin are going to be a real couple

If you have question, I can't clarify anything right now. But I can check on Monday.

Tiff

I think this is the hotsheet

For the week of 6/8:

Sonny demands a test to see if he's the father of Claudia's baby -- and kicks her out!

Carly's doing OK in the aftermath of her and Claudia falling down the stairs, but the fall puts Claudia's pregnancy in distress -- and she's in real danger of losing Sonny's baby. At the same time, Sonny has to wonder yet again why Ric is taking such an interest in Claudia's troubled pregnancy. Could it be ... that he might be the baby's father? Hoping once and for all to get to the bottom of things, Sonny decides he wants an amniocentesis done so he can see whether Claudia's carrying his child or the spawn of Satan. Oh yeah, and he tells her to move out too.

Meanwhile, the implications of the revelation that Rebecca is really the late Emily Quartermaine's twin sister will be felt throughout Port Charles. But what everyone DOESN'T realize is that Ethan and Rebecca are working a con to take Nikolas and the Quartermaines for a ride. And it's starting to work -- the Qs (including Jason) are all thrilled by the news. And Nikolas is further taken into her web (oh Nik, you should have listened to Alexis!). What Rebecca (and Ethan) doesn't expect is Helena showing up -- and wanting a piece of the action.

It's still rough sailing for Michael this week. He's dealing with major anger issues; look for him to attack another GH staffer we know and love. And this time, it leads to a physical altercation with Jason. Maybe it's not such a good idea that he lives with Carly?

Also causing headaches for Jason is the fact that Kristina is raising hell all Port Charles. She and her brother Michael decide to pool their troublemaking efforts (which involves breaking, oh, about three different laws), which doesn't spell anything good for anyone in town.

All this, PLUS: Maxie, Spinelli, and Lulu continue investigating Kate's sabotage; Luke finds himself in a jam; and Robin, Patrick, and Alexis find themselves right in the middle of a medical mystery ... the kick-off for a brand new storyline!

Cool.....

Question: Are we all caught up on clips? I think I have downloaded everything thus far. I know Halee posted the scenes from W, but did we have Tuesdays show clips. I am determined to catch up this weekend.

Here is SON preview for GH for next week. Sounds like Tracy is only mentioned with Luke on Wed. Monica is mentioned about finding out about Rebecca being Emily's twin and welcoming her into the fold. Wonder if Tracy will show up in that at all to call Rebecca out again. Damn Tracy called it from day one and nobody gives her any credit--she was on to Ethan and Rebecca.

I wish Tracy/alexis would have a scene or two about rebecca.

There was a true/false insider who went through the IL debunking certain things. Since their information matched up with some things I know....I asked them about Luke/Tracy the divorce, etc...here were the answers....and the exchange. I tend to believe this person based on some things I know to be going on.

Does Tracy divorce Luke or do they remain paired up when Luke returns?

NO she doesn't divorce him but she comes close and you won't believe(Well, probably you will) who stops her from going through with it.

They remain paired. Likely always will.

I'm sure it is Ethan. Does Tracy ever find out that helena has luke?

Yes. Ethan knows Helena has Luke. Eventually he has to tell Tracy to prevent her from going through with the divorce.

So to me, Ethan wants them to stay married because it is part of the con for the Q money from Rebecca.

I'm liking this kid. Seriously.... I'm liking this kid. Ethan is a great addition and now we've got two of Luke's kids who want to keep LuNacy together. It works all the way around. I don't care about his motive (but I bet it's good), I just care that he's supporting Tracy like Lulu has. At some point they are going to have to bridge the divide between Tracy and Ethan.... and if Tracy knows the truth, not only will she realize Luke didn't leave her, but she will do what she can to get him back. Team Spencermaine is on!

BTW, thanks for the article. I could have done without the 'lives off his wife', but in essence he does live off the Q largess. But I thought that was a really good way to look at all of Luke's 'kids' (still not convinced Ethan is a true Spencer). Lucky with the rage against injustice, Lulu with the optimism and Ethan with the scoundrel's edge. I also like that TG is so invested in this story that he's willing to take phone calls while away.... that bodes well.

And Luke/Tracy will always be married....

Okay, again no Tracy today....

But a fun episode nonetheless..

Michale escaped the hospital (even though Toussaint tried to stop him) and wound up in Kristina's room where they chatted about their elders and Mikey's 'plan' - no, we didn't hear it

Kristina has major Daddy issues and knows Lex will overcompensate with material goods, so she will play it while she can - Lex thinking she has the perfect daughter, of course. When Jason pushes her too hard, she tries to sex it up to turn Jason off... it works. Chick does not have a thing for Jason so we can strike that spoiler.

Lex and Rayner keep meeting up at the MC and he keeps flirting while she's not sure what to do with his attention. Rayner comes through for her and compliments her along the way.

Rebecca is a busy woman. First she shares threats with Helena (putting her arm around Hells and saying "screw you" - not many can get away with that), then she sees Nic and the boys at the HS, then back in her room she and Ethan play tonsil hockey.

Jax/Carly/Sonny/Claudia are all about Michael. Line of the Day goes to Jax, who after Carly says she doesn't like her food says "You don't like it? You're not 5 years old."

Carly confronts Claudia at the top of the stairs having overheard Claud tell Johnny that Michael is gone and she thinks it's all her fault. Meanwhile Jax/Sonny agree to present a united front for Carly's benefit and arrive at the nurse's hub just in time to watch their pregnant wives fall down the stairs.

Also Piph and Toussaint reunited and it's a little frosty when she finds out he's been back in town for a few weeks but didn't call her (nasty boy).

Thanks for the recap--spoilers these days are not necessarily wrong--but lots of stuff is being cut and changed that does not make the breakdowns. I thin this sam/kristina/jason is one of them.

Well, we can split the difference and say they aren't terribly accurate or reliable.

Interesting what a few days make. When the big revelation happened that Ethan could be Luke's the LnLers threw back their heads and howled... I said give it time, it will blow over.

A few weeks later Ethan and Rebecca are obviously in this together and now folks on SOC are looking at Ethan with renewed eyes - this boy might be a winner afterall. Fun stuff. Having Nicolas, Lucky and Ethan in the same frame today was fabulous - especially how they looked at Rebecca, a woman they all have their own interest in.

NLG long interview...interesting take on the emmy process and how screwed up it is...plus a lot of other stuff if you like NLG
