    Easy Fixes.

    Monday, March 08 2010
    Tracy offers a solution to Ethan, Sonny wants Michael taken to the island, and Lucky states his wishes.


    As Ethan protests his deportation on The Haunted Star, Lucky gets Luke onboard and they try to convince him it's the only answer for him. Luke admits though that Sonny promised not to hurt Ethan, but Lucky reminds him people under his protection haven't faired so well, citing Michael as an example. Ethan doesn't think he's done enough to warrant Sonny's wrath, but Luke and Lucky think otherwise and just want to keep him safe. Lucky relents though and tells him it's his life and he can take his own risks, but he should really get a green card and then he leaves. Tracy boards the boat and gets filled in on Ethan's visa expiring and that they need a to find a woman to marry him so he can get a green card. Luke thinks Tracy would be perfect if she weren't already married, but Tracy says, "Easily fixed." Tracy gets on the phone to make plans to go to Vegas, pushing Luke's buttons. It works as Ethan plays along and says he will marry Tracy after she gets a quickie divorce. Luke says, "You will marry Ethan over my cold dead body." They both respond, "Okay." Luke tells Ethan to leave and then calls Tracy's bluff saying her marrying his son is a good idea. Luke states his demands, which are outrageous, but Tracy agrees. Luke relents and laughs. He tells her their union is odd, brutal at times, and works for him better than anything he has ever known. He won't give her up for anyone, including his son. Tracy tells him that was the smartest thing he's said in a long time and they kiss.



    In her room in Shadybrook, Elizabeth explains why she can't take Nikolas' money for her baby. She tells him to dissolve the trust because it won't change anything and as long as a Cassadine has touched the money it is cursed and she doesn't want any part of that or him. Later, Lainey comes to the room for a session with Liz, Nikolas and Lucky. Elizabeth recounts how her affair with Nikolas started, as Lucky and Nikolas both look uncomfortable. Lainey asks what she needed from Lucky, that she couldn't get from Nikolas. Lucky interrupts and says he's examined his part in all of this and thinks in some ways he kept her frozen in time because he never stopped seeing her through the eyes of the kid who fell in love with a brave girl, who he helped through a major crisis. He thinks Nikolas was an escape and on some level she had to know being with Nikolas would free her from being with him forever. Nikolas and Lucky leave and Elizabeth tells Lainey she will always want Lucky. Out in the hall, Lucky says he wants the baby to be Nikolas'.



    Sonny sends Michael out of the living room so he can talk to Dante alone. He warns him of the damage he could cause his brother, but Dante points out Sonny is never the one to cause any damage and always plays the victim. Dante thinks Michael will see through that one day and he will help that process along. They argue and Sonny tells Dante Michael wasn't even there when he shot Claudia and relays the story, putting himself in Michael's place.



    At the garage, Jason lowers the paint gun, but tells Johnny how easy it would be to kill him. He starts to walk away, but Johnny pulls out his gun and says it goes both ways, but his gun shoots real bullets. Johnny won't shoot him though and they argue. Jason warns he will push back if Johnny keeps pushing him and then walks out. Dante comes to see Johnny to ask him about the aftermath of Claudia's death. He asks if Michael ever told him anything and Johnny suggests he leave the boy alone. Johnny thinks he should act like a big brother and help him, but that's what Dante is trying to do. Dante suddenly realizes Sonny will try to get Michael out of the country so he isn't called to testify.



    Sonny meets Jason at the penthouse and tells him to get Sam and take Michael to the island. Jason wonders what about Carly and Sonny says he will handle her.



    Jason returns to the house and tells Michael he's going to the island, but Michael wants to take responsibility for what he did. Jason warns they need to get him out of there before it all blows up in their faces.



    As Sam and Jason get Michael ready to leave at the penthouse, Dante comes by to talk to Jason about Michael.



    Carly gives Olivia instructions to plan a dinner at the Metro Court, but when she learns it's for Sonny, she gets upset. Olivia carries out her instructions anyway and Jax walks in assuming it's for him. Carly walks in all dressed up and Jax is impressed, but Carly wonders if Sonny will like it. Bothered that the dinner is for Sonny Jax tries to play it off. He sits at the bar with Olivia and seethes as Sonny and Carly sit down together. Sonny tells Carly Michael is being taken out of the country, which she is very unhappy about.



    While on their stakeout at the Metro Court, Spinelli pretends to worry about Maxie's safety, but she isn't fazed. He ramps up the details of his case making it seem more dangerous. Maxie gets a call from Kate, but she tells her boss she can't come into work due to a life or death situation. After she gets off the phone, Spinelli continues to convince Maxie of the gravity of the case and then gets a call. While Spinelli is distracted, the chef, who Maxie thinks is a serial killer, walks off the elevator and Maxie trails him to another floor. He invites her to his place, but she grabs a butter knife and says, "Back off, serial killer."


    Next on General Hospital:

    Jax is onboard with Michael going to the island.

    Sonny questions Olivia about Dante's childhood.

    Patrick is in for a surprise.

    FUBU- A girl can hope...that is wall I want...they don't have to kill sONNY off I just don't want him in my face every time I watch GH...but you are right about the writers painting themselves in a corner...and believe me when I argue about GH I am totally separating the issue from the person (poster)… I leaned that in my Conflict and Communication class...best class I ever took in college)... I try to be very mindful that my posts d not come across as if I am attacking the poster and I really hope that they do...I appreciate a healthy debate but I don't ever want to get nasty about it.

    Liz sounds like a little girl with a wooden head. I really want Lucky. Give me a break!

    Does anybody else see that the DNA that places sonny at the cabin is Dante's and What in the hell is the writers of GH doing they have totally destroyed the sonny of old dont get me wrong i love sonny but the old sonny is me fav. why would they get him help for his bi polar disorder and put him on meds to have him act like a whole other person. what they should have done was put him and carly back together and he should have got out of the mob for good. All of these women coming out of the wood work that he use to be in love with when hes said that carly is the only women that he has ever really loved. GH WRITERS SUCK!!!!!

    Ok, I watched the show today. Who really cares about Liz, Lucky and Nic and that baby? More than likely she'll miscarry it, or it will get kidnapped when its born, or some such stuff, this is going to go on for months, and I'm already tired of it.
    Sonny is Sonny. The truth just needs to come out. I liked that Carly was being all sweet to him and Jax kept looking at them. Jax set this whole thing in motion and he's gonna suffer the consequences. I liked Olivia's comment that she had enough troubles of her own and didn't want to get involved with theirs.
    I liked Johnny and Dante's interation today. Johnny seemed less stupid today.
    Ethan, Tracy and Luke were a riot along with Maxie talking to that chef.

    Ethan run for life. Lucky get to Sam before Jason leads her down the wrong track. Danti is heading into the family business,when he likes [daddy protecting his son}or brother.
    Johnny writing in the newspaper,I thought Johnny was smart.
    Jason does not publish what he going do.

    Sonny needs to tell Dante the truth, that Michael killed Claudia and see where he goes with that. Sonny walks and Michael has his future in his brothers hands. While Dante is all about making Sonny pay...I don't see him making Michael pay for the same crime. And Sonny can always say..he never said that, if it doesn't work out the way he wants it to.

    Lainy..wow...nice to see you girl!

    Liz is so mean to Nic it's almost funny. It really makes no sense and I can see why he's confused. So am I ! I just know the baby will be Lucky's, that guy can't catch a break.

    Carley looked great today. Even though we've been there too many times, I still like Sonny and Carley together. The fact that it would crush Olivia is just an added bonus. So weird that Jax and Olivia sit at the bar and stare at Sonny and Carley's table.

    Fubu: I read yesterday that when you watch the show you can't seperate the real life people from the characters, as when I have said " in real life I wouldn't go near a person like Sonny but, for the show I love him" and (if I understand you correctly) if you would hate them in real life you hate them on the show. Is this what you meant?

    So much to like today! I liked Oliva staying out of Jax and Carley’s business. I liked the whole bit with Luke, Ethan and Tracy – very fun! I liked that Lucky sincerely seems to want to move on (and away) from Liz. I don’t mind Liz that much, but would really like to see a new s/l for both of them – not together. I liked that Carly was appropriately ticked off that Sonny would just decide for Michael to leave the country.

    I know this was asked and answered previously, but I can’t find the posts. Does Johnny know that Michael killed Claudia or not?

    I’m not crazy about the Maxi/Spinelli s/l right now. Kind of boring and weird.

    For me today was all about the Spencer’s, especially Ethan. I couldn’t have been happier except if the full hour was focused on him. I adored how Luke, Lucky & Tracy banded together to help Ethan.

    The only downside was Olivia: Why doesn’t she keep her opinions and attitudes to herself or better yet, try following some of the advice she pushes on others. I have tried to like this character but there is very little to like. Olivia is always doing something ‘white trash’- whether if its lying about her feelings for Sonny or wiping the hotel silver ware on her shirt.

    The character that I like is Claire. She is feisty & has great chemistry with Jax, Dante & Sonny. I would like to see her get Sonny grovelling at her feet.

    Carly & Jax’s jealousy game is old and tired.

    Hi all.
    I have to say I am a little tired of hearing the same
    words coming out of Michael's mouth every time he is
    on. It's like the writers gave him a script & said
    "this is what you'll be saying for the next 2 months"
    Give the boy some new words to say PLEASE.
    LOL Tracy wants to take Ethan to Vegas to get married.
    I am not to interested in Carly & Jax's little games
    either. Make up or get divorced.
    Yay Lainy is out of the attic. To bad she didn't bring
    Spencer down w/her.

    OFF TOPIC
    LIL.... I just want to say how wonderful I think it
    is you taking care of Morgan. I am standing up & giving
    you & you husband a round of applause. So you have a
    Dom, Dante & Morgan. Now we just need to get you a Kristina
    & a Michael & you'll be good to go. LOL No just jokes.
    I couldn't resist. No really I think it is just fantastic.
    Oh And HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY DOM & DANTE!!!!!
