Making the Rounds at General Hospital - Baby Lost

In the aftermath of the cannery explosion, the truth about Kate's shooting comes to life while Carly loses her baby. Liz and Sam threaten each other nine ways 'till Sunday before Sam tells Lucky she doesn't want to press charges against Liz for the hit and run.

Furious that Carly and Sonny want to brush the shooting incident under the carpet, Jax confronts Sonny and challenges him to do what's best for Michael – get the hell out of his life. While the two are arguing over the implications of Sonny's career on the boys, Jax got the call that something was terribly wrong at the hospital and headed back to General.

Jax's confrontation must have hit a nerve with Sonny because he went to Kate and eventually spilled the whole truth about her shooting. When she suggested that Michael should, at the very least, get counseling for the incident, Sonny said what happened to Michael was between him and Carly and that she and Jax needed to back off. Funny. Kate was the one who was shot. I think she should have at least a little say in the consequences for Michael.

When Jax arrived back at Carly's room, he found Jason at her bedside. It would seem his hands had recovered fully – a fact he later confirmed to Sonny. He left Jax to be with his wife and though they tried to remain positive, Dr. Lee later confirmed that she had miscarried the pregnancy.

Even though I've seen this coming for weeks it was still horrible. I hate that Jax is, yet again, being robbed of the baby he so desperately wants. What's worse is it happened at the hands of mob violence. What's even more disheartening is I see this as a tell-tale sign of the beginning of the end for Carly and Jax, which means Carly will be back hanging all over Sonny and Jason. Same old stories.

Diane and Alexis had a meeting to discuss Sonny and Jason being questioned in the cannery explosion. What was most enjoyable about it was the back and forth between the case at hand and their friendship, talking cloths, shoes, jewelry, and an upcoming shopping trip. I applaud every effort made to build friendships and connections between the characters and to have such a fun one between two strong, smart women is certainly something to cheer about.
