Making the Rounds at General Hospital - Nanny Leticia Murdered
Published September 11, 2007
On Monday's General Hospital:
Jason and Carly tried to save Leticia, but they were too late and Mac, Cruz, and the rest of the Port Charles PD rushed in to investigate the murder. After initial questioning, Mac allowed Jason to take Carly to Sonny's so she could tell him and the boys about what had happened, but only if he returned to answer more questions. When Lucky arrived on the scene he was angered to find out Jason had been allowed to leave, asking why a known criminal was always given special treatment.
When Jason returned and after he was questioned further, Mac asked if there was anyone he felt should be given protection and after a brief pause said no. Lucky exploded on him, asking, "What about Sam?" My guess is Jason was too concerned about Liz and Jake to even give a thought to Sam and the only reason he didn't mention it was Lucky was standing right there and he was trying to avoid such outbursts from him.
When Carly arrived at Sonny's he could immediately tell something was wrong and asked Kate to take the boys upstairs. Carly filled him in on what had happened and I was rather surprised, and a bit appalled, that his first response was to the effect of 'this is a message.' Aside from overstating the obvious, it would seem to me if someone learned the person they've entrusted their children to for ten years was just violently murdered there would be more of an emotional response about that person or even fear the children could be next.
Even more surprising, however, was Michael's reaction. After Morgan was sent from the room with the generic explanation of Leticia died and went to heaven, Michael asked his father what really happened. When Sonny confirmed it was one of his enemies, his face went cold and his response was "kill them." Pretty mature vengeance for a ten-year-old, or maybe it's the immature response of a child who doesn't realize exactly how deadly his father's business is. It was also a bit telling that he, too, realizes his father is not a coffee importer. Sonny gave Michael a speech about how revenge only leaves a hole in your heart and it's not the right way to deal with things, but I'm betting before long he'll be handing down orders to Jason to take out a few of Zacchara's men in retaliation.
