Making the Rounds at General Hospital - Noah Stumbles, Sam Stalks

Written by Connie Phillips
Published August 09, 2007

On Wednesday's General Hospital:

Both Logan and Lulu visited Tracy. Logan asked permission to date Lulu and I'm not exactly sure what brought Lulu to Shadybrook, but when she arrived, Tracy tried to make it look like Logan was asking for money to not date her. Lulu wasn't buying it, and Logan took her to his apartment where he had a birthday spread – balloons, a gift, and a cake – for her. Lulu was touched he knew it was her birthday and they shared another kiss.

I'm really loving the onscreen chemistry between these two, even though I'm still overwhelmed with the feeling we're being spoon fed a new incarnation of the original super couple, Luke and Laura. I'm still anxiously waiting for Luke to come home and find out exactly who his baby girl is into now.

When both Patrick and Noah lashed out at Robin because her interference in Noah and Anna's relation resulted in both Drake doctors being cut off, Robin got an attack of guilt. Noah left the hospital to meet with Eli Love's manager, and while waiting at the Metro Court bar was approached by Bobbie. Noah swears it's only club soda in his glass, and offers a taste to Bobbie as proof. She doesn't take the drink and says she doesn't want to police him but she is worried about his sobriety.

Later Love's manager praises Noah on his ability to carry off what he thought was impossible, and we see the bartender mix drinks for the two men. This one isn't club soda and Noah doesn't hesitate in the least, drinking long from the glass.

Later, Patrick pages him back to the hospital. When he shows up, he doesn't appear drunk, but is chewing gum. Patrick fills him in on a new case, and Noah asks if he wants a consult. Patrick says, "No, I want you to scrub in." Though Noah is shocked and surprised by Patrick's declaration he needs him, his mind flashes back to the drink he took and he instead tells Patrick he has perfect faith he can perform the operation without him.

Patrick was afraid Noah would begin drinking again and it looks to be coming true. Since this is the second time in as many weeks we've seen Bobbie interfering with Noah after months and months of no screen time at all, I can only wonder if it won't be her picking up the pieces when the concert is over and Anna disappears, though I would much prefer Finola Hughes stay around so these two can explore the relationship a bit more. Better yet, let Noah and Skye connect at AA meetings.
