    Pick Of The Flock.

    Thursday, August 23 2012
    Liz and Ewen have dinner, Tracy is charmed by Joe Jr., and Jax arrives.


    At Pazzollo’s Jason leaves a message for Spin. Inside, Sonny tells him Joe came to see him. If he kills Joe, Kate won’t be able to handle it and he can’t lie to her. So Joe lives for now. Spin busts in and tells them he has news on Keenan. Sonny is upset – Kate depends on Ewen. Spin tells them there is a connection among Alexis, Joss and Dr. Keenan. He was born and raised in Australia and put himself through college shearing sheep. He went to Anchorage, Alaska, instead of staying in Australia. Strange, right? Jason comments it is just like Jax. That can’t be a coincidence. Sonny wants proof and Jason asks Spin to go to Alaska and look for a connection between Keenan and Jax.



    Liz lights candles for a romantic dinner at home. Outside, Ewen is approached by Jerry, who was waiting in the shadows. He just wants to make sure Ewen and Liz don’t talk about him. Jerry knows how tempting it is to confess to the lovely Liz and warns him again to stay silent. Liz calls out to Ewen. She invites him in and asks him to open the wine. She asks how he is feeling – he could have been injected too. He wonders if Jason asked her to find that out. She assures him Jason did not, and she wouldn’t if he did. They kiss, but she is not ready to sleep with him. She pulls away again and he asks if it is about Jason. She just wants to slow things down. He gets up to leave but she is concerned about how much he drank and encourages him to stay on the couch.



    Tracy runs into Joe Jr. in the hallway of Metro Court and spills soup on him. He takes it well – it isn’t every day you get chicken soup dumped on you by Tracy Quartermaine – or should he say Zacchara? He is staying there and gives her his room number when she asks for it. He invites her over, but she just wants to pay for his dry cleaning. She seems totally charmed as he walks away. Luke comes out and asks what has her so preoccupied. Wouldn’t he like to know? He tells her that thanks to Heather, Anna is in Switzerland. She told Anna that Robin is alive so she is looking for her. He is worried about her. His phone rings – it is Anna! The connection is bad but he can tell it is urgent. He is going to go find her and calls to make a flight. Tracy decides to give him the jet. Just don’t scratch the seats – they are Corinthian leather.


    In his room, Jerry asks Joe if he got his son out of town and Joe hopes so. His team is ready and waiting for instructions. Jerry wants to make sure the pathogen gets to every single citizen of Port Charles. They are going to meet at the reservoir at 2 AM. Joe is surprised he bothered to save anyone. Jerry has feelings – he even had Jax detained on the other side of the world. Joe wants guaranteed protection before he gets near that stuff. Jerry has him covered. Trey texts Joe that he is on the plane and Joe is glad one of them is safe.


    Outside Trey’s, Milo tells Michael and Starr that Kristina is inside. They walk in but the apartment is empty. They slipped out the window! Michael thinks Trey is using Kristina for revenge. He has to warn Sonny. Starr tries to talk him out of it so he leaves a message for Kristina instead. He goes through Trey’s laptop and finds out they are going to Vegas tonight.



    Jax shows up at Joss’ hospital room. He came as fast as he could when he got Carly’s message. He is relived she is better and gives Joss a music box to remind her how happy he is she is a part of this world. Inside, a prince and princess dance. He asks Carly what happened to Joss. She tells him about the kidnapping and injection. Did someone with a grudge do this to lure him back to town? He was detained in Shanghai, but was able to pull some strings and she wonders if it is related. He is not leaving until he finds out. She comments that Sonny is marrying Kate, her new partner thanks to him and he tells her he had his reasons for selling his shares. Later at the hotel, the three of them decide to go swimming. Outside, Jerry walks by and tells someone on the phone it is already in motion and should be resolved in the next three days. He needs to hold up his end of the bargain because Jerry has nothing to lose.


    Tomorrow’s Port Charles spoilers for General Hospital:

    Luke strokes Anna’s hair and asks, "God, what have they done to you?"

    Carly tells Todd, "Jax and I are over." He replies, "Over, but married."

    Johnny calls into Carly’s room and Jax appears in just a towel.

    Ewen comes down the stairs at Liz’s without a shirt and Jason says "I didn’t know you’d be here."

    Jerry tells Joe, "Today is a good day not to be in Port Charles."

    Olivia screams at Steve and Patrick from her hospital bed.

    Hi everyone,

    I guess the suspense is building now that we know Jerry is going to deliver the pathogen into the PC water supply using Big Scummy and his hired goons as the water treatment "technicians". Okay, I can't wait to see how this one plays out, once Jerry finds out that his brother has made it back to PC, despite the fact he tried to have him Shanghaied in Shanghai. By the way, I like the new Jax look, especially the hair and the new attitude. Too bad he's among the many, like Spinelli, Jason, and Sonny who would think the connection is about him instead of his nefarious brother. Still, it was nice to see Joslyn's reaction when Jax walked through the door.

    Okay so we are to believe that Tracy was hit by the thunderbolt as she was wiping the chicken meant for Luke off Scummy's chest. It isn't as if we all don't know she's not the queen of bad taste in men, but seriously? I guess Luke will have to come back from his rescue mission in Switzerland only to have to pull Big Scummy off of Tracy. Ewww.

    I wonder if Starr, who IMO was fairly dense today, will convince Michael not to call his father now that he's found the Vegas tickets on Tres Scummy's computer and instead suggest that they fly to Vegas to check on them. This for your consideration: If Jerry manages to kill all of PC besides Joslyn and Alexis, then it will be up to Starr, Michael, Tres Scummy, and Chrissy to repopulate the town. Obviously Luke and Anna will survive, but they're both a little old to be in the repopulation game.

    Wow, I had no idea that Ewen's romantic skills are so bad that he makes Matt Hunter and Spinelli look like Casanova when he lunged at Liz on the couch. I'm still thinking that he's Jax's son or very much younger brother. I guess we'll find out soon enough when Spinelli arrives in Alaska. As I was watching the three way exchange about Ewen among Sonny, Jason, and Spinelli, I had a feeling that Jason and Sonny are going to have another rift coming between them in the near future. Wait, isn't that what happened the last time Kate and Sonny got engaged?

    Ya know, I knew that there was a better way to put myself thru college when I was young, then waiting tables, working at a book store, etc., I could have been shearing sheep in Australia! So gay-Trey has flown the coop with Barbie Kristina to get hitched..YAWN! So Tracy are you really "charmed" by jerky Joe Jr or desperate, horny, and lonely... Please someone put a bullet into Jerry!

    Posted by lily hunter at Thursday, August 23 2012 02:37 PM

    maja - As much as I would like to see Jax deliver that bullet, I think he's already dying and has nothing to lose. Not that I would want to see Jax die, but in terms of making Jerry suffer, that is the only thing that could "wound" Jerry now.

    Maja:

    I wonder if Jax will be the one to take his no good EVIL brother out this time, considerting that Jax has been covering Jerry's butt for years!!!

    to Southgagirl: off topic I hope you have been able to get good advice from your family friend sheriff regarding your granddaughter. One reason I suggested a lawyer is because laws are so different from state to state, one of my sons in-laws spent almost a year on an adoption from Colo to Ks. the parents wanted her to have the baby but the laws were so different she had to deal with both states. Still praying for a positive outcome and so sorry you got this blow on your birthday.

    lily & raineysmom, I thinik once Jax discovers that Jerry has injected his daughter and Alexis with the virus/antidote and he's risking more lives, he won't hesistate pulling the trigger...all that over dramatic coughing Jerry's doing he should keel over preferably by a open window on the 77th flr...
