Port Charles Update for Wednesday, 9-Jun-1999

"Saint" Karen admits to Frank she had a great deal of fun pushing Courtney in the pond during Victor and Mary's wedding (who wouldn't have had?). Frank takes Karen out for some fun. Chris announces to Julie and Christina he sees cops headed this way. Lucy thinks it's Kat on the phone so she picks it up and starts screaming that Kathy is NOT emceeing the ball this year - Scott wonders what happened to simply saying hello.

Scott wonders if Lucy has been thinking about adoption and oh boy has she (okay I am a wee bit slow but let me see if I can figure this out - my brain is straining - Lucy and Scott want a baby - Julie just had a baby and is apparently back on her way to Ferncliff leaving said baby behind - hmmmm - is there a connection? Nah tptb wouldn't be so obvious - I mean subtelty is the writer's middle name - all of them - really). Scott and Lucy are all full of I Love You's and Goodbyes and visions of doom for DV and then Lucy settles down to read until someone knocks on her hotel room (Trivia time - her room number is 1017 - now aren't you glad you read this post you learned something LOL). There at the door is a bouquet of roses.

Lucy thinks they are from Scott - which would be a neat trick since the guy is jail-bound but DV is the actual bearer of flowers. Lucy throws the flowers at DV (owwwww I am so sure that hurt) DV understands that Lucy is a wee bit upset with him but announces he will be living at the hotel until he finds a permanent place to live in Port Charles. DV is a truce seeking guy - he even is gonna go drop the charges against Scott and wants nothing in return but to see Lucy smile (and yes, I am the queen of Egypt - do you like my crown?).

Meanwhile Karen and Frankie are at a carnival where Frank is shooting something besides his mouth - baskets into a little goal. A little girl asks what he is going to pick out if he wins. This is an easy going carnival because after sinking three way easy baskets Frankie is awarded a very big frog. Big surprise here - Frank gives the little girl the big frog showing Karen the softer side of Frank. A teary Julie doesn't want to give up Christina but Chris convinces her there is no other way. He gives her pain pills and milk drying up pills (which I am so sure that people at Ferncliff will be happy to let her take) and warns her not to let anyone examine her. Julie says goodbye to the too cute for words Christina. The farewell breaks Julie's heart.

Mac and Garcia (my guy has retuned!) with a few other cops break down the door to find Julie cuddling a pillow. Julie thanks Alex for always being fair and care and concern just pours out of my guy (okay I know generally I call someone else my guy but I never claimed not to be fickle). Julie and baby pillow are helped out by Alex. "Uncle" Chris promises Christina he'll take care of her. Karen has cotton candy! I want some - I love that stuff! Oh and lots of stuffed animals and other things and tells Frank she is having a blast. Karen has become a pusher in the pond addict - not only did she enjoy shoving Courtney but add Joe and even - even - the M lady (Mary) to her list of fantasy shovettes Frank offers his arm for Karen to punch - they giggle and then stare meaningfully in each other's eyes. This show is so deep.

DV has had Scott released and would like Lucy to teach him how to become a better person (a nice DV - how snoozevilleish). It's Tag-time - Taggart comes with Scott and informs him that DV set him free. (Okay can someone explain to me that while a murderer was going around killing many of PC's finest residents we only had one cop - and Scott gets arrested and suddenly we have two cops AND the chief of police? We're not worthy!). A prying Lucy finds out from Tags that Julie is un-free. Scott is more concerned about why he is un-jailed. Lucy has no idea why DV would do such an un-horrible thing.

Scott announces Lucy is moving back to the Firehouse she argues for half a second and then gives in. Karen wants a red palm - I mean she wants her palm read. No dutch dating for Karen - Frank pays and Ethel announces that Karen is being deceived by someone close to her (oh gee who could it be). Karen pays so Frank can be next- and Ethel diplomatically doesn't reveal his secret but does say Frank is blessed with two kids. Frank and Karen think Ethel has been reading a few too many palms. The pillow - oh and Julie - arrive at the police station and she promptly calls Chris to check up on Christina. Chris reassures Julie and then asks Christina if she likes her new Mommy - it is - ta da - Janelle!

Have a great day everyone!
