    Pull The Trigger.

    Thursday, July 12 2012
    Alexis relents with Molly, Todd makes a big discovery, and Steve can’t find a lawyer for Heather.


    At the hospital, Patrick takes a pill instead of booking his appointment with Keenan. Epiphany tells him drugs are missing from the lockup. She thinks it is Ramone the orderly. She thought he would want to know about such a serious crime. Patrick convinces Epiphany that Ramone is a good kid and they agree they won’t go to HR. She assures them she will find out about anything going on. Later, Ramone thanks Patrick for having his back, and he has his back too. He knows Patrick did it but his secret is safe with him.



    In his office, Todd excuses Sam so he can talk to Heather. The cops think she buried Anthony in the woods and she needs an alibi. She needs someone who looks like Anthony and has already found him. Todd has to find his number in her purse, call him and tell him to pull the trigger. He grabs the purse and dumps it. He finds the paper with the paternity test results and realizes Jason is the baby’s dad.



    Outside Todd’s office, Spinelli calls Sam and tells her about Heather and the police. She sees Heather’s purse and is going to look through it. In the elevator up to Crimson, Maxie calls Lulu and tells her they don’t have to worry about Patrick taking more drugs. Sam wants to look in Heather’s purse but Maxie keeps distracting her until Todd snatches it and takes it back into his office. They wonder what is going on between Heather and Todd when he leaves. They look through the purse contents and think Todd took anything incriminating with him. Maxie asks about Spinelli. Sam tells her she made her choice to marry Matt, and Spinelli has to move on without her no matter how much it hurts. Sam can relate. Things with Jason have gone from bad to worse. She kissed someone else and Jason saw. Then he kissed someone else and was not wearing his ring. Maxie doesn’t think a love like that just goes away.



    Steve calls Alexis for help but she will not take Heather as a client. He has no luck finding anyone else who will take her either. Olivia arrives and he tells her about what the police think, but he does not believe it. Olivia wants him to accept who Heather really is. He wonders if she is happy since she got what she wanted. She just wanted to protect him since he took legal responsibility for Heather’s actions. For that, she is glad she does not have to worry about it anymore. She hugs him and tells him they will find a lawyer together.


    At home, Molly calls TJ to tell him he is thinking about him. Everything was going fine until her insane mother showed up. Alexis walks in. She thought she made it clear not to talk to TJ. She assures Alexis that nothing happened, but she can’t believe her because she has been lying. Molly grumbles maybe she should get a love life. Alexis grabs her and tells her they will settle it right now.


    At Kelly’s Shawn asks TJ how his Fourth was when Alexis drags Molly in. She tells Shawn what happened at her house. TJ and Molly tell them what really happened. Shawn thinks TJ has made an honest effort to shape up. He really has no problem with them seeing each other if they are not drinking or having sex. Alexis is willing to let them date with stringent ground rules. They are very happy and agree to all the rules.



    At the station Dante and Lulu reunite and he wonders where she has been. She was comforting Johnny, and Dante thinks that sounds pretty personal to him. She did not think he was the jealous type. He thinks her involvement with Luke and Johnny looks bad. Lulu wonders if she should quit the PCPD. Todd comes in and wants to see Heather Webber. Dante refuses at first, but after Todd threatens to use them in his paper he relents. Lulu is mad at Dante and walks off.



    In the holding room Heather asks the cop to get her some lipstick. Todd arrives with the paternity results and she is horrified he went through her things. He is appalled that she duped everyone into thinking Franco was the father. She thinks it was delicious. Sam tried to keep her from her son so she got what she deserved. Everyone is better off. Todd knows now to never trust a stranger you meet in the middle of the night pushing around a dead body. For weeks he has felt this odd new strange sensation and now realizes it is even worse than he imagined. Heather reminds him there is nothing he can do about it.

    Epiphany, you are usually on your game. You mean to tell me you'd rather blame Ramone over the man you are talking to. Who is unable to stand up straight and head looks a mess. Even Ramone knows it's Patrick.

    Steven told Olivia that the police only thinks Heather hid the body not kill Anthony. Like that makes it better. He should go into the hospital with his mother, under the family plan and don't forget to pick up Elizabeth.

    Sam, why didn't you go into Heather's bag while Maxie was talking one hundred miles a minute. She might not have noticed or cared. Some Private Eye you are.

    Family plan.......LMAO!

    Glad Shawn talked sense into Alexis. Let the kids date.

    Hi everyone,

    So here's where the writers missed the mark for me today big time. If Sam or even FauxMaxi had found the paternity test in Heather's purse today, it would have heaped even more guilt on Jason, just as the discovery of the truth impacted Todd. The writers could still string out the rest of the putrid story until the chickens come home to roost at Todd's door. Do the right thing Todd, if only for your own preservation. Geeze, for a supposedly mastermind, Todd seems to left some of the master back in Llanview when he moved to PC.

    I know that a lot of you like Heather the puppet master, but I'm so hoping her days in PC are numbered, along with her idiot son and his magic guitar which I'm sure must speak to him late at night advising him to protect his mother. After trying to hire a lawyer for her all afternoon and being turned down, wouldn't he start to wonder why no ambulance chaser (did he call Scott Baldwin/) wants to take her case? I hated seeing Olivia cave after giving StevenLars the benefit of her street smarts about his whack job mother. I think she needs a really big dish of pasta to bring her back to her senses. What's with these women who think that being with criminal doctors is better than being with the average Giovanni?

    So I guess Molly and TJ are dating now, thanks to Shawn. I'm sorry to all of you who think Molly is the next Hissy, but really I have to give Molly cudos for pointing out that Alexis does practice situational ethics. Sit down Alexis, you're never going to out argue your youngest daughter, maybe you could give mothering another try with Hissy.
    By the way, why are the writers leaving Shawn behind the counter at Kelly's and focusing on lesser men?

    Patrick made a new friend to fill the void Matt left by going off to prison. Good for him. I'm guessing that he'll be much a more "efficient" surgeon in the coming weeks, if GH decides to do time studies.

    Dante and Lulu now fighting... seriously over Johnny? Good Afternoon America.

    I don't understand why Todd didn't just make a copy of the test results and keep it to use as a weapon against Heather, instead of telling her he knew she switched the results...Todd is a lot smarter then that, and when you think you gotup against the wall, that's when he comes out swinging and is his most dangerous.

    OT Has anyone seen GAA at 2PM? I can guarantee it won't make it into fall. I think they know it too.

    OT: ttoyou the hosts of that(GAA) show said in their introduction on Monday that they would only be on for 6 weeks...

    I'm tired of the "Heather and Todd" Show. Way tired of the "Sam and Jason Show." I'm over the "Molly and TJ Putting One Over on Alexis Show." How disrespectful and unintertaining, by the way. I'm tired of all doctors stealing--and taking--drugs ("The Patrick Pity Party Show").
    What happened to GH?? Even the credits are a poor shadow of the show that used to be.

    Posted by nancy marie at Thursday, July 12 2012 02:27 PM

    I'm way over "The Maxie Show," "The Steven Lars (Mother Sold Me--Yet I Defend Her)Show." Seems the talent pool has all dried up!

    OT
    Did anyone see the news story about Katie Couric as poster girl in Iraq?
