THE RETURN OF JERRY JAX

Lucky, Dante and Jason finally come up to the conclusion that the "Jack" Siobhan referenced from a conversation she overheard might be a last name like Jacks... as in Jerry Jacks, the scrupulous brother of Jasper Jacks. Running with this, Dante goes to see Jasper about his brother but runs into Carly instead. Jason goes to warn Sam who doesn't know that someone (not Jerry Jacks) has been in her apartment and was privy to her private conversation with her mother.

While his brother is running amuck, Jax is torn between whether to interfere with Brenda's life especially now Sonny is back on the scene. After Suzanne begged and pleaded (and put her nose where it doesn't belong) for him to pull Brenda away from Sonny, he requests Olivia to order roses and champagne and to send them to Brenda. Olivia reminds him to remember all that he has to lose if things blow up in his face. Just as it appears that he's going to heed Olivia's warning, he spots Sonny and Brenda downstairs in the Metro Court's restuarant.

Why did Sonny bring Brenda to the restaurant in the Metro Court? Even Brenda had to ask. Sonny's excuse: he had nothing to hide. My opinion, he wanted to rub their date in people's faces- mainly Jax's. Well he got his wish. Jax spots them and immediately invites himself to their table where they have champagne together.

Before the left, they encountered Carly who was too calm for Sonny's liking. He demanded for her to admit what she has plan, but she refused. Once Brenda pulled Sonny away, Carly started working on Spinelli, after she found out how much he did not like the fact that The Divine One is out with Mr. Sir. So using her sneaky little brain, she twisted it around that she heard from Dante's old cop buddy that he might have pressured Brenda into having an affair with him three years ago. Now Spinelli is on the case of finding concrete evidence that Dante and Brenda slept together.

In Scrub News, Robin was released from the hospital and returned home. She and Patrick almost had a tender moment until Maxie barged in and ruined it. Though Maxie tried to save it by leaving, the moment was lost and Robin sent Patrick away.

Patrick returns to the hospital and is requested to work on one of Lisa's patient. It's still tense with everyone having their own opinion of the bizarre atmosphere in the hospital. Thankfully Elizabeth is still on Robin's side and will probably remain on her side after she sees the "confession" Lisa put online- of course skewing the story so she is the innocent "other woman" and that Robin is the deranged wife who will never be satisfied with her husband. Can't wait to see Patrick confront Lisa. (He better do it)

In other relationship news, Michael and Abby grow closer. I don't know why but I don't think she's going to last long. Besides Michael, she has no connection to anyone else. I wonder if she's not the villain I first prophesied, will she be a casualty to the big drama that is brewing.

My TAKE ON TODAY'S EPISODE:

Suzanne is getting too many people involved in Brenda's life and I wonder why. She keeps saying that she is protecting a good friend, but she also told Jason that she obviously doesn't know Brenda as well as she thought she did. So is Brenda a good friend or a stranger with a past life she doesn't understand? And why is she asking for every man's (Jason's, Jax's) assistance to protect Brenda- knowing fully well that Brenda doesn't want everyone to dictate and interfere in her life.

Spinelli still has the most hilarious scene today- this time between him and Carly. However, he is one of the most gullible characters on the show. How could he believe that Carly would care one ounce about Brenda? As if!

I hope Carly is smacked down with her own schemes. She thinks she is so smart and is golden, but everyone has warned her that it will all blow up in her face.

Many assume The Balkan is Jerry Jacks, but I'm not convinced yet. Maybe Jerry is just a red herring. Could it be someone else more sinister? Or someone who is already in Port Charles?

November 29, 2010

Well I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving holiday. Mine was pleasant, but I'm sure no one cares so on to the show:

Last week was a nice week for the characters to spend time together and for us to have some light-hearted moments.

Brenda told Sonny about Alexander and Dante's part in the cover-up. Sonny convinced Brenda to stop blaming herself and then asked her out on a date.

Claire asked to join Alexis' and Diane's law firm which was a funny scene. I knew that was going to happen eventually.

Molly and Spinelli planned a romantic moment for Jason and Sam which was sweet and cute.

At the Quartermaine house:
Lucky brought Siobhan who quickly charmed Edward.
Lulu conned Dante into coming over and he brought Michael with him (whose family went to Manhattan to see the parade), much to Edward's delight.
Maya and Ethan continued their fun banter as husband and wife.
Luke finally gave Tracy her engagement ring which almost brought her to tears (perfect moment!)

At Alexis' house:
Though she was away spending time with her father, Molly was still orchestrating things at home. With the help of her sisters, Maxie and Robin, they managed to get Mac to come over for Alexis.
Diane (who showed up with Max) approved.
Trying to help Spinelli, the girls also invited Maxie and arranged it for them to sit side by side. None of them knew Maxie invited Matt over as well. (tear shed for Spinelli)

Having a more intimate moment:
Patrick, Robin and Emma spend some time together in Robin's hospital room

Today's Episode:
Dante, Jason and Lucky work together to figure out who the Balkin is. Since Spinelli cannot tear himself from The Divine One's side, Lucky cracks into his computer and is able to access many of his files to the others' surprise. Since it seems like everyone else knows, Dante finally comes clean to Lucky (after Jason puts it out there) about him covering up the Balkan's son's murder.

Robin is released from the hospital but this after she makes a fool of herself twice when confronting Lisa. Knowing that she was going to confront people, Lisa came up to their floor (when she should be in the ER) and Robin saw her. Flipping out, Robin demanded to know why she was up there and Steve told Lisa it would be best if she had an intern bring up her papers in the future. Witnessing it, Nikolas beings to side with Lisa and is further pushed to her side when Lisa asked for him to come along when Robin pages her. Robin flat out tells her that if she comes near her family or home she will be arrested. Nikolas- the gullible moron- continues to believe that Robin is the emotional mess and confronts Patrick, declaring it is all his fault. However, Robin allows Patrick to drive her home. Little does anyone suspect that Lisa will be taking her warfare to the internet. Inspired by a patient, she finds out about a site where you can anonymously put up your complaints/side of a story and get people to side with you.

Sonny was a busy boy. He first confronts Dante and thanks him for what did for Brenda, revealing that she told him about the incident 3 years ago. Then he talks to Suzanne and tells her not to interfere with his relationship with Brenda. Next, he goes to pick up Brenda but is met with Spinelli instead. Taking a protective role, Spinelli demands to know what his intentions are for The Divine One. After a very awkward and hilarious scene between The Jackal and Mr. Sir, Brenda comes down and assures Spinelli that everything will be okay. Just as they open the door to leave, guess who is on the other side: CARLY!

Meanwhile, her husband is being requested by Suzanne. She feels like he is the only male in Brenda's life who can pull her away from Sonny. I don't know why she feels like she has the right to pull all these men away from their lives to aid Brenda when she does not want their help. Though I'm sure Jax will initially refuse, I have a feeling he will not be able to sit on the sideline knowing that Sonny is pursuing Brenda again (even though it is a mutual attraction). He will get involved which will make Carly even more determine to bring down Brenda and everything is going to hit the fan.

In more interesting news: someone is sneaking around Sam's apartment. Who could it be? My guess: Jerry Jax. He was, after all, obsessed with her before he left. Why wouldn't he still be upon his return?


My own take of today's episode:
NIKOLAS IS AN IDIOT WHO NEEDS TO KEEP HIS NOSE IN HIS OWN BUSINESS!!!! Where's Brook when you need her. He should be focusing on her and allowing her to bring out his fun side. Instead he's spending all his spare time with Lisa; defending her, making sure she is okay, supporting her, etc. It makes me sick.

I so hope that when this is all over he gets on his knees and begs Robin to forgive him for actually believing the psycho over her- someone he has known for half of his life! However, Robin is making it SO EASY for people to doubt her sanity and ability to be objective. She needs to stop her high-horse dramatics and allow Lisa to strange herself with her own rope. Also Johnny needs to come clean. After everything he has been through with Maxie, he should show some loyalty to her by helping out her family.

Spinelli's conversation with Sonny was my favorite part in the entire episode. It was so funny and sweet how Spinelli gulped down his fear for Mr. Sir and just spoke his mind in order to protect Brenda. Though Brenda doesn't need to be protected (something I wish the writers would realize and start writing her as the strong, opinionated woman she was before). It's like
