Making the Rounds at General Hospital - A New Zacchara is in Town

Written by Connie Phillips

As Sam's bruised and battered body laid on the side of the road in the snow, our four suspects all were upset about the accidents they had. With all that crashing into things being done on the docks, I'm surprised two of the four suspects in Sam's hit-and-run didn't collide into each other.

That's right, I said four. To throw just a bit more fun into the mix, Nicholas stood in front of that house where Jax and Kate had their heart-to-heart and Sam couldn't get anyone to help her escape the TMK and told his vision of Emily he thought he saw her standing in the middle of the road. Later, back at the hospital he questioned whether it was a hallucination or if he had in fact hit something or someone.

Of the three we witnessed on Friday, Monica seemed the most upset on Monday. After changing into scrubs in the doctor's lounge and throwing the clothes she was wearing into a garbage bag with her flask, she called the police and reported her car stolen. In second place was Carly who sat in the car repeating, "We're going to be alright" over and over. Yes, we, as in she must be pregnant. Can someone tell me why then was she crying before she hit whatever she hit? It didn't look like a "I'm so happy" kind of crying to me.

Liz, however, showed up at the safe house, upset that she had fallen asleep at the wheel. She guessed it was the vibrations from hitting the side of the road that jarred her awake. How wonderfully ironic it would be if Liz were the one to have hit Sam. It would be pretty hard for her to say it was an accident given how much she verbalized and displayed her hatred for the other woman. How long will it take to unravel the mystery of who ran down Sam? I'm guessing the same duration as February sweeps. Maybe the bigger question is how long will it take to find Sam lying on the side of the road?

Double-duty, Connie?

Journalism has reported that one of the actress recently died -- very recently.

Yes, Marcia, Shell Kepler, who played nurse Amy Vining from 1979 - 2002 died this past Friday of renal failure. I posted a news item and a tribute video in yesterday's column.

What a tragic loss.
