Jason at storage. Can someone explain to me how one moves large and heavy items into a storage unit with this kind of access?

Today's shirtless hunk is Nathan, which of course is great... but I wish we could see Nathan/Lulu actually hooking up vs. assuming they had sex each time he carries her upstairs. Seeing none of the kissing/passion takes away from wanting to root for this new couple.

That's exactly what they should be doing with Chase and Brook Lynn. The writers fail every time they put her in a bed with him.

I think Jack is toasted

Yeah, I agree that Chase and Brook Lynn should be played the way Lulu/Nathan were today. Nathan was shirtless and Lulu was in casual clothing. Lulu wasn't wearing anything provocative and the scenes seemed romantic like they did spend the night having sex.

However, the lack of showing any bit of Nathan/Lulu's first time being together leads me to believe there is little investment in this pairing. They aren't bad together, so it's shame they won't get a real shot.

The rest of the episode was boring. Jason spent half his scenes building his gun while flashing back to scenes that just happened. At this point I am not even sure I care if he kills Callum, Jack, or both lol.

As others have said, staging and blocking would at least make it seem like romance was in the air with BLQ. Mess up her hair, direct them to be playful with how they speak and the looks they give. AS could even be fully covered in attractive sleeping attire and a silk robe. If it’s also insecurity about her appearance, give her a pillow to hold, or sit her at a vanity and have Chase leaning on her chair, meeting eyes in the mirror, kissing her cheek, playing with her hair. There are ways to sell intimacy believably and make it still feel sexy. But what they are doing ain’t it!

I'll be honest -- when I saw that, I wondered if Alexa Havins wanted it that way -- pulling offer own Amanda Setton. I've heard AH has strong Christian beliefs. I don't know if that's true or how that transfers to a soap, but I do wonder if she's getting the writing that Setton gets.

I don't know enough about Havins to say one way or the other, but from the writing Lulu gets I doubt she gets any preferred treatment like Setton does. I figured it was a clear attempt to sabotage the pairing before it really begins.

Havins never had an issue before and her husband is a soap star and actor, so I would think they would both be okay with it since they understand the business. They've been married for about 20 years.

Setton and Swickard have been much more public about their beliefs in the press.

What kind of a hit man doesn't wear a mask.

It’s amazing with the current chemistry between Liz and Ric. Now it's time for GH to put him on contract and push Liz to the front burner.

I think it may be easier for Rick Hearst this way, given his business and living on the East Coast.

Random thought...

I really like Joss now, especially after she gave it Carly.

Now for Nathan and Lulu, they really have HOT chemistry together and enjoying the mixed up with Maxie. If Emme Rylan were still in the role of Lulu, she would not have chemistry (no offense to the actress) with Nathan but for some reason Alexa Havins is a good match up.

Emme was badly miscast as Lulu. I love her as an actress and she's fun on social media. She was great as Lizzie on GL and Abby on Y&R but a total misfire on GH. AH has chemistry with everyone and can act!

I'm also glad they finally have AH's Lulu in a romance. Or whatever is going on with Nathan. I still think GH played it wrong by not having Dante and Lulu have any kind of lingering attraction to each other but I guess they're saving Dante for BLQ or Liz.

I am not going to fault Alexa yet for the love scene stuff. Her recent interview about getting used to onscreen intimacy again did not give me the Setton vibe, it just seemed like typical soap actor talk about doing love scenes. If I think she's holding back vs. the show cutting corners then I'll say it when the time comes.

I couldn't care less about Lulu with Nathan/"Nathan" so the whole issue is a moot point for me.

I know many hated her but I liked her as Babe too. Emme lacked that grit that the part needs.

My one complaint about Lulu/Nathan is that if Nathan is not Nathan this is sexual assault. And that’s yet another violation Lulu is being subjected to. Imagine a man on this show being violated this much!
