After being knocked down by a distraught and strung out Lucky, Liz is escorted to the hospital by Nikolas. After learning she and the baby are fine, she retreats to her Gran's house (Wow! Audrey Hardy! When was the last time we saw her?) where she again proclaimed her marriage was over. Greg Vaughan (Lucky) was masterful in the scenes in which he pleaded with first Audrey to see Liz, then with Liz through the closed door begging for forgiveness and vowing (yet again) recovery.

An even more distraught Maxie handled her anger and jealousy in her typical psycho-teen fashion as of late. She staged an attempted suicide, knowing Lucky would run to her rescue and in hopes his guilt would bring him back to her arms. What she didn't count on was her transplanted heart stopping because of the mixture of the drugs. Lucky had taken her to Mercy Hospital in an attempt to keep his addiction and affair secret. Because Maxie wasn't wearing a medical alert bracelet and Lucky neglected to inform the doctors she was a transplant patient, they weren't able to take it into account when treating her. (Nice little PSA for medical alert bracelets.)

Maxie laid on the guilt trip, Lucky stayed firm in his declaration that he didn't love her and was going to do everything he could to save his marriage. At the end of Friday's show, Maxie was calling her daddy – Commissioner Scorpio. (Cross your fingers we might actually see Mac on screen this week!)

As Lucky begins to hit rock bottom, I'm looking forward to seeing the road to recovery and the unexpected bumps and turns that will come with it. He has lost his wife, who has filed for divorce and says she doesn't care if he does get clean, she is done. He is bound to lose his job once Maxie spills her guts to daddy. Will the prospect of becoming a father turn Lucky's life around (if Liz ever tells him she's pregnant) and if the baby is really Jason's, will that send him back to the drugs?

Lulu was terrorized by nightmares of not being able to find her baby after having the abortion, immediately questioning and seemingly regretting the decision she made. Depressed, she nearly cut her own hair after seeing herself in the same catatonic state as her mother, in those same nightmares. Dillon, confused by Lulu's reaction, had his own emotional breakdown in the boat house in Georgie's comforting arms.

These two young actors continue to be the shining stars of the show, delivering some of the most heart-wrenching and intricate scenes. Their chemistry pops off the screen and it's got to be obvious to everyone involved they need to move these two back together. Here's hoping once Dillon is able to get over his anger, he and Lulu will be able to work through the pain and confusion together.

I had anticipated that once "the deed was done" GH writers would just drop the story and move on to the next one. I couldn't be more pleased to see I was wrong. It's good to see a daytime drama focusing on the aftermath as well as the right to choose.
