–Logan, to 3oop and Maxie.

Recaplet for Wednesday, May 9, 2007:

• Ric visits Elizabeth and tells her to fight for her and Lucky. Ric later goes to Jason and tells him to stay away from Elizabeth.
• Jerry 2.0 brings Emily along on a business transaction and makes her complicit in his shady dealings.
• Robin and Patrick tell Nikolas that they think they’ve synthesized the counter agent.
• The Boys welcome Carly and Jax home. Michael accidentally lets slip to Jax that Jerry 2.0 was at the Cottage.

Cottage
Jax and Carly are lying in bed. They wake up, bid each other a good morning and start to kiss but then are interrupted by The Boys barging in and welcoming them home. They jump on the bed. Carly admonishes them for not knocking first. Jax asks them if they’ve been downstairs yet. Michael says no. Jax says they must have missed the big black suitcase full of toys. The Boys tear downstairs. Carly tells Jax he only bought them a couple minutes. Jax suggests they make the most of it. First, I guess the room Carly was getting ready in for the wedding was her own. I just don’t get the tree in the hallway. Second, that bed? YOOOGE (as The Trump would say)!!! Seriously, that looks bigger than a King Size bed. Maybe the camera angle and headboard just made it look bigger than it actually was. Third, the way Jax was lying seemed like it would put a crimp in his neck. That can’t have been comfortable, even with the huge padded headboard.

Emily is on the phone, finding out Elizabeth’s condition. She thanks Bobbie, then gets off the phone and updates Nikolas. Nikolas wants to go back to GH, but Emily tells him he needs to rest. Nikolas argues that Lucky needs him and Elizabeth is his friend too. Emily says that Lucky knows that Nikolas is supporting him. She tells him to stay home and rest. She’s got to go to work so she’ll update him later. Jerry 2.0 comes in and tells her to forget the patients; he’s got plans for her. They’re supposed to go on their little business trip. Nikolas doesn’t want Emily going anywhere with Jerry 2.0. Jerry 2.0 points out that if Emily doesn’t go, there’ll be no counter agent. Nikolas says that Jerry 2.0 is bluffing because he keeps threatening Nikolas about withholding the counter agent but keeps coming back. Jerry 2.0 can’t decide if Nikolas is being obtuse or arrogant or both because even a lab rat eventually learns that if you pick Door #1 and get zapped, picking Door #1 defies logic. Nikolas thinks Jerry 2.0 took a big chancing coming to GH and giving them the counter agent. Jerry 2.0 says that Nikolas is making too much out of this. Nikolas will go through what he did a million times if it means keeping Emily away from Jerry 2.0. Jerry 2.0 points out that Emily keeps coming back though. Emily gets mad and tells Jerry 2.0 that she wants him to feel what she felt at the McHotel when she had to watch Alan die and now Nikolas. She wants him to know what it’s like to stand by, helpless, while a loved one need you. Hmm..foreshadowing that doesn’t bode well for Lady Jane or Jax.

GH – ICU Elizabeth’s Room
Lulu comes in and wakes up Lucky. He said he was dreaming that everyone was okay and they were going home with their baby. Kelly comes in to tell Lucky that Elizabeth’s blood pressure is low and she’s non-responsive to the medication. Lucky says that she has to pull through. Lulu tells him that Elizabeth is a fighter.

GH – 7th Floor (I think)
Robin brings Patrick some coffee and tells him he looks like hell. She says that he should go catch a nap and she’ll take over in the lab. Patrick thinks they’re close to duplicating the counter agent. Robin says that Jerry 2.0 slipped up when he gave it to them. Robin wants to know if she should call Nikolas. Patrick wants to wait until they’re sure. Robin says that her schedule is clear so that she can work with him in the lab all day. They both know that Nikolas is running out of time.

Not Starbucks – Office
Jason is on the phone with Bernie, telling him that he has to send someone else because Jason’s not leaving town. He hangs up. Spinelli walks in and Jason asks how Elizabeth is. Spinelli tells him. Jason asks how Baby Boy is. Spinelli tells him he can see for himself. He opens his laptop to show Jason BabyCam™. Jason guesses that he hacked into the security cameras. Spinelli says that he can check on his progeny whenver he wants. Jason admits that he looks good. Spinelli says that he’ll need Jason if Elizabeth dies.

Not Starbucks – Café
3oop comes in and asks Maxie what the emergency is. She says it’s a caffeine emergency. He says that it’s not good for him to be hanging around in the café. She says it has the best cappuccino in town and that no one will think he’s working for Sonny. 3oop says he also shouldn’t be seen with the Police Commissioner’s daughter. Maxie says that coffee is fine, but no one can know they’re sleeping together. They kiss. Logan comes in. Maxie tells him to go away. Logan asks if they’ve seen Sonny. Maxie asks if he wants to embarrass himself again by asking for a job, again.

Cottage
Upstairs, Carly and Jax are getting dressed. Carly asks if he’s ready for this. Living with The Boys is different than visiting. Jax says he is. Carly asks about 2nd thoughts. Jax is sure he has none. They go downstairs, where the living room is a mess with the toys that Jax and Carly brought back with them. Carly asks him again if he’s sure he’s gonna love this. Then she shoots The Boys a “I cannot believe this mess” and a “If you think I’m cleaning this up, you better think again” look.

Wyndemere – Study
Alexis comes to see Nikolas. He asks how she is. She is better than him, apparently. Nikolas says it’s the flu and being up all night worried about Elizabeth and Lucky. Alexis asks why he asked for her. He says he wants to make some provisions with his will. He wants to make sure that there’s a trust set up for Lucky’s Baby Boy and Emily’s guardianship of Spencer is airtight. Alexis figures out that Nikolas and Emily never broke up and that the relationship with Robin was faked because she’s Nikolas’ doctor. Nikolas more or less agrees with her. Alexis tells him that if he wants to play it polite but oblique that’s fine, but he needs to take his illness seriously.

Outside the study doors, Emily tells Jerry 2.0 that she’s ready to go but they have to make it fast because she’s ducking work and folks will wonder why she did that. She also doesn’t want Nikolas to know about this.

GH – ICU Elizabeth’s Room
Ric comes by. Lucky tells him that he’ll tell Elizabeth he stopped by. Ric asks what happened. Lucky tells him about Jason finding her, etc. Ric is suspicious of Jason. Lucky says that Jason saved Elizabeth and Baby Boy. Ric says that he and Elizabeth lost a child; that bonds them. He’d like to talk to her, to tell her that there are people pulling for her. Lucky says he’s going to visit Baby Boy, so don’t stay too long.

Not Starbucks – Cafe
Logan asks 3oop how cop school is. 3oop says it’s more than books. Today, they’re going on ride-alongs, so he’s got to go. He gives Maxie a quick peck and leaves. Logan says that was quick. Maxies tells him it’s called being a responsible adult with a job. She wonders why he’s not at his job at McHotel. She snidely asks him to go ask Sonny for a job again. Lulu walks in. Logan says hi. She walks right past him to the back.

Not Starbucks – Office
Jason says Elizabeth will be fine. Spinelli says that she’s not responding to her meds. He needs to be with his son. Jason says it’s not that simple. Spinelli says that if Jason tells everyone the truth now, no one will blame Elizabeth, especially if she wakes up. They’ll just be happy she’s alive. Lulu walks in and tells Jason that he can’t tell anyone he’s the father of Baby Boy.

GH – ICU Elizabeth’s Room
Ric tells Elizabeth that a lot of people love her and that her baby is waiting for her. He’s glad her faith in Lucky won out because he likes knowing that kind of faith exists in the world. He wants her to hold on to that faith. He says he’s letting her go and that he hopes she’ll be happy with Lucky and Cameron.

GH – Nursery
Epiphany is cooing over Baby Boy. Lucky comes in and thanks her for keeping an eye on him. Epiphany plays it off like it’s her job but you totally know she’s playing favorites. She hands Baby Boy over to Lucky. Lucky says that they have to hope Elizabeth wakes up so she can tell them who he is since the naming of the baby boy was her deal.

Bank
Jerry 2.0 tells the Banker that he’d like to open an account and put it in Emily’s name. The Banker tells them that a transaction of this size will invite international scrutiny. Jerry 2.0 says they have nothing to hide. The Banker tells Emily that by signing, she’s liable and assumes full legal responsibility. She’s aware. The Banker gets a call and steps away for a moment. Emily accuses him of setting her up. He knows the transfer is illegal so it gives him a hold over her. Jerry 2.0 says he’s giving her a change to not repeat what happened last night. Sign, don’t sign. Maybe he’ll give Nikolas the counter agent, maybe he won’t. It’s all about risk assessment and it’s up to her. Emily signs. Jerry 2.0 says he’s feeling all warm and tingly because their lives and fortunes are forever linked. What would be great about this whole story line would be for something to happen to Jerry 2.0 where he couldn’t get the money in the end so Emily would wind up as rich as Nikolas.

Not Starbucks – Office
Lulu says she just saw Lucky; he’s being brave, but he needs to have this. He’ll make a good dad. Spinelli points out that Jason is the real dad. Lulu says that Jason made a deal and has to stick to it. Spinelli says he made the deal with Elizabeth. Lulu asks where that leaves Lucky. Jason tells them to stop arguing. Lulu says she’s done everything Jason’s way and now she wants him to keep his word. Jason asks to speak with Lulu alone. Spinelli tells Jason not to be swayed by her magnificence and leaves. Lulu tells Jason that if Elizabeth dies and he takes the baby, Lucky will be devastated. Jason says he has to start thinking like a father. Lulu reminds Jason that she wanted to say something from the beginning but he convinced her that staying quiet was the right thing so he needs to honor that. Jason says that Elizabeth is still alive so there’s no problem. Lulu agrees but that if Elizabeth dies, they’ll have a big problem. Jason says that all he can think about is how his son might grow up without a mom.

Cottage
Jax helps Carly pick up the living room. He thinks she was a bit hard on The Boys. Carly says that making them clean their rooms isn’t being hard on them. Jax says she was kind of harsh. Carly says that they have to set boundaries. Jax says that he and Jerry 2.0 were in trouble all the time. Carly says it’s why Lady Jane took up hiking, to wear them out. Michael yells down from upstairs that they’ve finished cleaning their room and asks if they can come down. Carly says yes. They come downstairs. Carly takes Morgan to a play date. Jax is showing Michael the cricket gear he bought him and asks Michael how he feels about the whole “stepfather” thing and where Jax fits into the whole family situation. Michael admits that he’ll always want his parents together but he thinks that Jax is a pretty cool stepdad. He says that Moran might have trouble adjusting to Jax being there all the time. Jax admits it will be an adjustment for them all. Michael says that he’ll help Morgan because it’s what big brothers do, just like Jerry 2.0 said. Jax asks when Michael talked to Jerry 2.0.

GH – Nursery
Lucky puts Baby Boy back into the crib thing and leaves. He runs into Spinelli and asks why he’s there. Spinelli says that he’s keeping Lulu updated. Lucky tells Spinelli that her nephew is fine and leaves. Spinelli goes up to the nursery door and knocks. Epiphany wants to know what the hell he wants.

Not Starbucks – Café
Maxie is dogging on Logan about Lulu not noticing him when she walked in earlier. Logan says that Maxie has 3oop so why is she so fixed on who he likes? Maxie doesn’t get the Lulu love. You and a bunch of folks on the GH boards, honey. She starts bagging on Lulu, which Logan lets go until she says something nasty about Laura. Again, the writers are just idiots here. There’s no way Maxie would talk about Laura that way. She worships Lucky and Laura’s always been a mother figure to her, much more so that her own mother. Logan tells her to shut up. Maxie asks why he cares. Before he can answer, Ric and 2 officers walk in. One of them is 3oop. Ric asks if Sonny’s in. Vinny says no. Ric asks if Jason is in. Vinny says yes. Ric tells Cop and 3oop to stay put but come in if they hear trouble.

Not Starbucks – Office
Lulu apologizes for barging in. Jason says it’s okay. Lulu says that they’re both trying to do the right thing. Ric walks in and asks what that would be. Jason tells Lulu to go. Ric: “I’d hate to see you get mixed up in something you’ll regret.” Lulu: “You’ll get over it.” She leaves. HA! I love when Lulu gets snarky with the right people in the right situations. Ric asks Jason why Lulu was there because the only thing they really have in common is Spinelli. He wonders if it has something to do with Elizabeth.

GH – 7th Floor
Nikolas finds Robin and Patrick. They tell him they duplicated the counter agent. Nikolas asks if it’s over then. He wants his life back.

They leave.

GH – Nursery
Spinelli says his name is on the list. Epiphany asks who approved him. Spinelli says Dr. O’Connell. Epiphany tells him that she knows what hackers do. The only reason she let Jason in was because he helped save Elizabeth’s and Baby Boy’s lives. All Spinelli is doing is annoying her. She tells him to get out. Spinelli runs into Lulu. She asks why he’s there. He says he’s monitoring Baby Boy for Jason. Lulu tells him that Baby Boy is a Spencer. Spinelli disagrees. Lulu doesn’t care. Spinelli gets all dewey eyed about this being their first fight (which, it isn’t but whatever). Lulu tells him he’s missing the point. Spinelli says that if Elizabeth dies, Baby Boy will need his real dad.

GH – 7th Floor
Nikolas is in a hospital bed, hooked up to an IV. Robin is telling Nikolas not to be hasty. Nikolas says he’s been trapped in this nightmare long enough. Patrick wonders if Nikolas doesn’t want to make arrangements. Robin suggests waiting until Emily gets there. Nikolas gets it. This counter agent will either save him or kill him. Nikolas watches soap operas! Who knew?

Not Starbucks – Café
Logan asks Maxie if they’re supposed to ignore 3oop. Maxie says that he’s working, which is what Logan’s supposed to be doing. When that doesn’t get a rise out of Logan, she switches tactics and wonders why Lulu didn’t even glance his way as she was walking out. Logan agrees that she had something on her mind.

GH – ICU Elizabeth’s Room

Not Starbucks – Office
Ric says he visited Elizabeth and learned from Lucky that Jason saved her. He wonders if it was coincidence that Jason was at the Spencer House. Jason says it was and that he’s got nothing else to say to Ric. Ric says that Jason’s always been a little bit in love with Elizabeth, as evidenced by their one night stand. Ric says that Elizabeth has moved on so Jason needs to stay away from her. Jason tells him to get out. Ric starts to leave but he hears something coming from Jason’s computer. It’s Spinelli, saying that he has an update on the progeny.
