Previews for the week of 08-Mar-2010

by Carol Banks Weber


  • Kristina really likes Ethan, not just as a friend. But she goes about conveying this entirely the wrong way.
  • Kristina blows off her date with Kiefer to try and win Ethan back over at the Haunted Star.
  • Kristina’s shenanigans manage to waylay Ethan’s date with Bernie’s sexy secretary, angering him.
  • Ethan goes all the way over to Kristina’s house to make sure she understands she’s never to do this again.
  • Ethan opts to reject Kristina outright but as kindly as he can, considering the circumstances (her throwing herself in his direction). He’ll pay for it dearly this week.
  • Kristina’s headstrong insistence at being with Ethan causes him to drop the kindness and go a little too far by grabbing her arm and leaving a visible mark.
  • Sam notices the mark on Kristina’s arm, listens about Ethan’s hurtful rejection, and goes to read the guy the riot act.
  • Kiefer hears about Kristina throwing herself at Ethan, and proceeds to punish her physically for the indiscretion.
  • Kiefer reacts with such blind, mindless, methodical and violent fury – taught him by his abusive parents since childhood – on Kristina that she soon requires ER care.
  • As mom to Kristina, Alexis is summon to General Hospital immediately to tend to her daughter, recovering in a hospital bed.
  • It is at GH that Alexis gains knowledge of Kristina’s secret sex and violence life. She also acquires knowledge of Sam’s involvement in the having-sex stuff.
  • In a blurry haze from recovery, Kristina mumbles Ethan’s name and “hurt me” in the same breath. That’s all the adults need to go after Luke’s wayward son.
  • Sonny and Alexis go toe to toe over what’s happened to Kristina.
  • Luke draws a firm line to Sonny, when it comes to Ethan.
  • Carly tries to influence Lulu into influencing Dante into leaving Michael be.
  • Lulu, however, tells Carly she cannot and will not do that. Dante is a big boy; he can do what he wants.
  • Jason extrapolates to Johnny the reason he’s not six feet under already. It’s all because Johnny had the good sense to not rat Michael out to the cops.
  • Dante and Ronnie arrive on Sonny’s home turf to put Michael through some official police questioning.
  • Sonny interrupts, then verbally assails Dante for putting Michael through this.
  • Johnny wards Dante off of pursuing Michael as a potential lead.
  • Sonny and Carly go back and forth on whether they should include Alexis in on what really happened to Claudia. Ultimately, they leave her out of the loop.
  • Carly bristles at Sonny’s travel plans for their son, Michael. Sonny believes it’s best all around if Michael stays on the private island for the duration of the court case.
  • Sonny and Carly dispute about what’s best for Michael.
  • Jax gets involved, as he and Sonny – for once – agree that Michael should leave the country now. They try to get Carly to budge on this too.
  • Jax opens Carly’s eyes to the truth of the situation.
  • Only when Jason intervenes, does Carly budge and let her son go.
  • Jason and Sam concoct the perfect means of keeping Michael from barging into the courtroom and declaring his guilt: They’ll stow the kid away on Sonny’s private island and supervise.
  • Before Jason and Sam can squirrel Michael off, here comes Dante.
  • Carly holds onto Michael a little tighter before he boards the traveling vehicle to the private island with guardians Sam and Jason.
  • Jason and Sam escort a cranky, unwilling Michael to Sonny’s private island for safekeeping.
  • Dante senses Sonny’s hidden agenda in making Michael scarce at all costs.
  • Dante puts two and two together, coming up with Michael AWOL.
  • Dante deters Claire from bringing Michael up as a witness.
  • Dante’s intervention with Claire on Michael’s behalf warms Carly.
  • Michael protests his lot in life, whining about everybody making him feel like a little petulant child.
  • Michael takes a gamble with his life and his future, by bolting in a boat. He can’t wait to blow the lid off the Claudia case, personally in court.
  • Crisis averted. But Jason and Sam have to put Max and Milo on babysitting duty over Michael when they’re required to head back.
  • Michael schemes to make a run for it again, by outwitting Max and Milo in the bargain.
  • Bernie steps in to prevent Michael from getting away (with his latest behavior).
  • Sonny wishes he could trust Dante and entrust his oldest son with the secret about his middle son, Michael, in Claudia’s accidental homicide. That way, maybe Dante would soften his hateful stance against him as a murderous dad.
  • Sonny relays his wishes about coming clean to Dante, when talking with Carly.
  • Carly communicates her worry about Sonny’s trigger-happy confession urge (in blowing it all with Dante) when speaking with Jason.
  • Sonny hits Luke up for a big favor. Maybe he can talk to Lulu…
  • Jason prevents Sonny from coming clean to Dante about who really did Claudia in.
  • Jason harbors severe misgivings about Sonny’s state of mind in making decisions right now.
  • Sonny hits Olivia up on what Dante was like and what he went through as a kid.
  • Claire issues a court summons to Sonny and Carly to make sure they bring their boy Michael to the witness stand.
  • Alexis and Diane are at odds with Claire in the heat of battle.
  • Spinelli aims to look big in Maxie’s eyes, so he drags her along on a stakeout in the freezing, icy cold. Here’s the dumb part: he made it all up in an effort to appear the dark and disturbing hero to her.
  • Spinelli and Maxie are waylaid by a cold, freezing storm, and they’re wedged in a storm drain.
  • Maxie neglects her heart health and goes along with Spinelli on his adventure. But she nearly breathes her last breath, were it not for the swift actions of Johnny.
  • Johnny drops in like a light from above to liberate Maxie and Spinelli from their stuck place.
  • At Robin’s orders, Maxie undergoes a battery of tests at the hospital, resulting in an upsetting diagnosis.
  • Mac puts Spinelli through his paces for putting Maxie through this.
  • Maxie tries to shield Spinelli from Mac’s wrath.
  • Spinelli recriminates himself bitterly for putting Maxie in a hazardous situation that jeopardized her health like that. He owns up to having made up the entire case, but she takes it in stride.
  • Maxie quickly contracts hypothermia and pneumonia, given her weak heart condition. She ignores the signs and heads in for another glorious, stress-filled day at Crimson, because Kate demands it.
  • Maxie should’ve left well enough alone and stayed put. Her job isn’t worth dying for.
  • Elizabeth, Lucky and Nikolas all meet with Lainey for a session.
  • Lucky would rather not have a baby with Elizabeth. He’s praying the paternity result is in Nikolas’s favor. Thanks to Helena, it just may be.
  • Try as they may, Lulu and Dante can’t seem to get some alone, loving-chunky time to themselves.
  • Patrick and Robin still can’t get it together. And Lisa’s antics aren’t any help.
  • Patrick walks in on Lisa in the altogether when they’re both in the GH co-ed locker room. He wants to shrug off the vision of loveliness, but inside, he can’t and it bothers him.
  • Patrick tries to deal with it, with Lisa. She simply acts like the whole incident was an accident.
  • Patrick and Lisa wind up in a jammed elevator, and make the most of their time together by going over fun times in their party college days. She has been quietly devising ways to get him alone, because she misses their partner-in-crime connection.
  • Next week: Lucky must act like a cop when he takes Ethan into custody after Kristina is forced into blaming him for abusing her… Dante sees Sonny’s human side a little more when he witnesses the mobster take very gentle care of Kristina… Sam’s ready to draw and quarter Ethan for hitting Kristina. But Jason (and Johnny) aren’t quite so quick to the draw… Jason’s reluctance to tar and feather Ethan annoys Sam… Maxie reassures Spinelli that she will not give in and die… Helena begins to seriously mess with the residents in question.
